Kristi Yamaguchi does not have a triple Axel either, but that's about the only weapon her arsenal lacks, and in the past year she has completed the transition from a cute kid trickster to a poised and elegant stylist. She too had to leave her home as a teenager and pursue superior coaching at Edmonton, Alta. Canadian champion Kurt Browning, who also trains there, is a pal and a one-man cheering squad. Bezic, who has worked out many routines for the likes of Katarina Witt and Brian Boitano, is also on Yamaguchi's team. Bezic devised a short...

This pattern is repeated whenever George isreminded that he is no longer his daughter's hero.It's cute. It's sweet. It's funny.

...both bad and great, its prose lopsided and its effects crude, its power and pathos undiminished. In adapting it anew, California's Berkeley Repertory Theater has retained all the virtues and many of the faults. The first half of Neal Bell's script seems wayward, slow and sometimes cute, in part because director Sharon Ott opts for a too stylized manner of acting. The second half is riveting.

After reading too many essays in one sitting, they tend to melt together into one lump of sappy, sentimental...well, fill in your own alliteration.
