...never heard of. Dubbed sport stacking, this rapid-fire competition could at first glance be mistaken for some peculiar carnival game. Players are tasked with arranging 12 lightweight plastic cups into various formations; a stacking kit comes with a touch-pad timer and cups that have a trio of holes in the bottom to reduce air resistance. At slower speeds, it seems easy enough: build up pyramids and break them down in a predetermined sequence. But as the game has become increasingly popular--some 15,000 schools and recreation centers worldwide have bought group stacking kits in the past three...
...staff is comprised largely of freshmen. The team’s rookie hurlers have displayed potential and turned out some impressive performances this season, but at times their inexperience has produced rough outings.That was the case in the opener of Saturday’s twinbill, in which the freshman trio of Jonah Klees, Jeff Reynolds, and Marcus Way was unable to minimize its struggles and fell victim to a hard-hitting Big Green lineup.

Astonishingly, that demonstration of presidential butt-kicking was then recounted by the government's spokesman...
...Matthew Michael Carnahan, who wrote The Kingdom (G-men in a middle East war) and Lions for Lambs (handwringing over Afghanistan); Tony Gilroy, of Michael Clayton and Bourne movie fame; and Billy Ray, who did the magazine-corruption film Shattered Glass and the CIA exposé Breach. When a trio of top names is on a script, you can guess that each worked consecutively on the material, trying to slim it down or punch it up; and that each was employed to fix the "improvements" the previous man had made. It's been reported that Brad Pitt had been signed...
