It was a real mental test for us [yesterday] to ignore what was thrown out [Saturday].” Operating under the assumption that the scores would indeed not count, Rhoads attempted to rally his squad at dinner Saturday. Sophomore Mia Kabasakalis, who finished yesterday with a round of 76, recalled her coach’s motivating pep talk. “He said that they are going to make the decision they are going to make, and if Tiger [Woods] or Annika [Sorenstam] played in a tournament and had this happen, they...

...Robert Rodriguez-Frank Miller Sin City. On his few forays into late-night talk (one visit with David Letterman sticks in my mind), the host would breathe a sigh of relief to find Rourke roguishly charming; the bull hadn't demolished the china. But mostly his rep kept him MIA. When he came up for the role of Randy, he recalled in Venice, Aronofsky told him: "You're a really great actor, and you've just f--ked up your career for 15 years and nobody wants to hire...
