...youngest of four children, is a competitor. After she missed a jump combination in her short program at nationals last month, she vowed to complete it two days later in the free program. And she did, flawlessly. "Once she sets a goal for herself, she's determined to reach it," says her mother Judy. This season that goal was making the Olympic team. "She is a great competitor. She's mentally tough," says her coach of nine years, Pam Gregory. "She stays in the moment and is able to not get distracted when she's competing by what is going...

...churches, the mission plans to have substance-abuse counselors and mental health workers on site to help assess the needs of partygoers. "Maybe we can pay a few utility bills to get them back into housing or get them into treatment," Audi says. He's also hoping they might reach more people than usual, since many who don't usually visit shelters might come for the party. There hasn't been much criticism of party plans. Even the police, Audi says, have agreed to call the Rescue Mission instead of just rousting the homeless. ?We'll send...
