TONI COLLETTE, 32, center, has spent her career playing unstrung women on the verge, like the despairing mom in About a Boy. "I find myself falling into a niche," says Collette. "I want to expand it." As Rose in In Her Shoes, with CAMERON DIAZ, left, who plays her pretty but flaky sister, and SHIRLEY MACLAINE, her long-lost grandmother, Collette starts out frumpy, overworked and overweight (she gained 25 lbs. for the role) but eventually blossoms. Says Collette: "Her name, Rose, says...
...Rose Garden Arena in Portland, Ore., last Wednesday, Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James, 20, became the youngest player to reach one of the toughest performance milestones in basketball, the "triple double" (double digits in points, rebounds and assists in a single game--he did it again three nights later). During one play, his quick crossover dribble, sans shove, sent a Portland defender veering to the sideline. Wide open, James shot a three pointer. Swish. Nothing but Mike...
DIED. ZHAO ZIYANG, 85, once the great hope of Chinese political reformers, who lost his post after he publicly sided with the 1989 Tiananmen Square protesters; in Beijing.

...work. But don't let it fool you. There's plenty of care going into both the stories and artwork. Hart keeps the layouts clear but varied and adds some nice touches. The second Hutch story of the book, "Public Relations," has been colored in hues of rose, giving an ethereal tone to its tale of the plans for building a shopping center at the World Trade Center site and the ghosts that haunt it. One story, "The Future," about a time when email will be downloaded directly into your brain and coffee cups will have interactive features about celebrities...
...amassed a 74-6 win-loss record. If those six defeats make him sound less than invincible, it may do to acknowledge that the ATP circuit is a grind so relentless that players either turn down the intensity dial occasionally or else burn out. Whenever it mattered, Federer rose: he did not lose to anyone in the Top 10 and won all 11 finals he contested. He has to be favored to defend his Australian Open title, climaxing Jan. 30; there's also loose but understandable talk of him accomplishing some quite extraordinary feats before he's done with tennis...
