...much more nuanced and complex and deep-thinking writer than he's been given credit for." And fans who think Tolkien was not just a great storyteller but also a great stylist are similarly excited about Hurin. They expect it to be the best example of his mature, fluid prose since The Lord of the Rings. "He wrote [parts of Hurin] after finishing Rings and by that time he had developed a full narrative style," says Carl F. Hostetter, co-editor of Tolkien's Legendarium: Essays on the History of Middle-earth. Which is fitting. One of Tolkien's most...
...have a lot of quality wide receivers, a bunch of all-Ivy caliber guys,” Dawson said. “I think that still is the strength of our offense. It may take one or two games to really get the passing game fluid and to where it needs to be, but I have no doubt in my mind that Pizzotti and the receivers can do a great job.”On the other side of the ball, the Crimson will try to exploit a weakened Holy Cross offense.After losing starting quarterback Dominic Randolph to a sprained...
...collection was much more deep and really meant something." Still, says BCBG president Ben Malka, it wasn't easy. "There was a certain stigma that Max broke.

He has taken Advil, Naprosyn, Voltaren, Celebrex with minimal help. Injections into his knees of hyaluronic acid (a component of joint fluid) and corticosteroids provided only a few weeks of relief. Physical therapy, braces, acupuncture, yoga all failed. He couldn't get out of chairs, couldn't climb stairs because of the pain. There was one thing left - a knee replacement - and it worked. But we hate to do these for patients...
...refined (he wore a cream-colored blazer to his Wimbledon matches) and sublime. "The way Roger moves, he's a ballet dancer out there," says McEnroe. "He floats above the court. His style is the most beautiful I've seen." Federer's volleys, awe-inspiring angled shots, and fluid one-handed backhand recall a bygone serve-and-volley era before today's high-tech racquets encouraged players to grip and rip missiles from the baseline. Says veteran tennis broadcaster Bud Collins: "He looks as though he woke up from a time capsule...
