...downhiller Karen Harsch--gratis. The 38-year-old mother and ex--U.S. Ski Team member slaps on her sticks 50 times a season in Summit County, Colo., often bopping from Arapahoe Basin and Keystone to Copper Mountain and Breckenridge in a single week. Chances are her 6-year-old daughter will follow in her mother's boot steps...
...Grant quit films in 1966 after Walk, Don 't Run, a relative failure. After that, the public saw only the odd, tastefully tantalizing glimpse of a man minding his own cheerful-seeming business, playing a graceful front man for Fabergé cosmetics, doting on his fifth wife, Barbara, and his daughter Jennifer, 20, by his marriage to Actress Dyan Cannon.

This is Australian writing worth caring about...
...That has infused Britain's Conservatives with a sensation so unfamiliar, they barely recognize it: optimism. Giddy at this turn of fortune, some are already mythologizing the man behind it. Iain Dale, who writes a Conservative blog, speaks of Cameron's "Kennedyesque glamour." Cameron and his wife Samantha - the daughter of a baronet, who sports a tattoo of a dolphin on her ankle - are among London's most sought-after party guests. Says Gregory Barker, a Tory M.P. and member of Cameron's campaign team: "People sniff Camelot...
