...every time he steps on court - as powerful as ever? In Hewitt's relationship with his fianc?e, Belgian world No. 2 Kim Clijsters, and his days spent caddying for Greg Norman in December, some observers see signs that Hewitt's obsession with tennis may be starting to splinter.

In the meantime, that nasty karate master is coming straight at me: a kick to the groin should do the trick. A Foggy Idea It's guaranteed to leave car thieves mist-ified. SecuFog, the latest auto-security device from Germany, is a small metal...
