Only a queer bounce kept the sophomore goal tender from his third shutout in four games With Harvard leading 2-0 late in the first period. Blair went behind his net to play the puck instead, the puck played him, or off his stick, and out in front of the now-empty net Yale's Ed McManous took advantage of the opportunity to score the Elis' only goal of the night...
...based on stability, skaters' emotions seem as fragile as snowflakes. Many of the participants appear as softly vulnerable as the star-crossed couple of Lake Placid, Randy Gardner and Tai Babilonia. Something at the base of this light and lovely sport is dark and disturbing. At tender ages, children by the pair are instructed how to hold on to each other as intimately as a man and woman, to hang on for dear life and try not to fall. When dropped, they shatter. Olympic athletes in almost all of the various sports heed nutritionists and other modern helpers...
...attempt to demystify and de-mythify "the Bard" (a phrase that would never escape his lips unless they were twisted satirically), McKellen establishes two reference points between himself and Shakespeare. The first is that they were both helplessly smitten by the theater at tender ages.

On Sept. 22, Ryno bought 4,000 shares of Bendix at roughly $60 a share; five days later, after Allied's tender offer had been made public, she sold it at about $73 a share, netting a profit of $51,000. U.S. securities law only penalizes tipsters who "benefit" from passing inside information, and the SEC does not claim that Thayer profited financially from his inside information. The commission will charge, instead, that Thayer benefited...
...collection also includes two novellas that rank as classics, not only in Colette's canon, but in all of 20th century French literature. The Tender Shoot is the story of a singularly nasty middle-aged roue's pursuit of a 15-year-old peasant girl. Upon this squalid tale, Colette lavished her most lyrical language and poetic fancies, heightening the sense of evil...
