...strict tolerances for accuracy and precision. I love the little paper test target it came with where the (Russian) factory technician shot five shots at 20 degrees centigrade and five shots at -20C to confirm the accuracy of the barrel (the warm group is clustered within about an inch, the cold group about an inch and a half). I love the clips on the buttstock that hold four extra magazines (for quick loading during a race). I love the sights that have extra-large adjusting knobs so you can re-zero quickly during the race if the conditions...
...better watch her back in the parking lot. For this year there will be another star on the slopes of Park City, Utah, who will no doubt consider herself worthy of the kudos. She's the fearless, delusional transsexual heroine of the rock musical Hedwig and the Angry Inch, and the fact that this unlikely entry has made it into the Dramatic Film competition means that Hedwig must be in fighting form...

The T-shirt is a female-sized medium. I'm a six-foot, five-inch, 220-pound guy. You would think that a megapromoted megaconcert could at least spring for an XL T-shirt...
That’s the secret, really. Don’t write out “TIME!!!” in inch-high scrawl—it only brings out the sadist in us. Don’t (Cliffies) write offers to come over and read aloud to us your illegible remarks—we can (officially) read anything, and we may be married. Write on both sides of the page—single bluebook finals look like less work to grade and win points. This chic, shaded calligraphic script so many are affecting lately is handsome and is probably...
