...loss to articulate the mechanics of her whirlwind style, Lipinski once said, "I just rotate." In a fairy-tale blue-and-yellow frock, she flew to the Anastasia sound track, whipping through her triple flip, exploding into a grin that dwarfed her 80-lb. frame and skating circles around everyone but Kwan. Then the 17-year-old veteran showed that having soul as well as legs counts. Kwan drew out the chords of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3 in D Minor into a smooth legato line as she flowed, left leg extended, straight toward the panel of judges. When...

There, in front of family and friends, was Andras Grof in a silver-lame cape and rhinestone tiara groving to Le Freak as around the world, Intel plants silently cranked away to his rhythm. What were the odds of that...
...million, but whose cards weren't what you'd call a sure thing. Long after lower-paid mortals folded, Damon continued to bet like a winner; he'd arrived at the table with $200 and left only $20 poorer, which of course did nothing to deter the amiable grin that rarely leaves his soon-to-be-familiar face...
