...two.The ball floated a bit, allowing two Princeton players to converge on Cusworth. The seven footer went up for the ball but got undercut, causing the pass to deflect off of his hands a fall right to Princeton forward Kyle Koncz. As Cusworth glanced to the nearby official in utter disbelief at the no call, Koncz cruised down court and 12 seconds later, the infamous Harvard killer Scott Greenman buried a trifecta to pull the Tigers within one with 31 ticks left.“All he does is hit big shots,” Stehle said.Despite the crushing blow...
...seven unruly children. In the opening sequence, the children, led by the eldest boy (Simon Brown, the cute kid from “Love Actually”) break into the kitchen, tie the screaming cook (Imelda Staunton, “Vera Drake”) to the table, and wreak utter havoc. Nanny McPhee then mysteriously shows up at their door and uses her magic to whip the brats into shape. When the children refuse to get up in the morning, claiming they have the measles, Nanny McPhee actually gives the children measles for the day. Lesson learned—with...
...This is a curious self-empretzelment: How did it come about that when Bush talks about Palestinians he sounds like Ted Kennedy talking about Americans? It came about the old-fashioned way, through utter policy failure.

...Europe, where he is a celebrity, Bode Miller has stood at the top of slalom runs and listened to 50,000 Austrians chanting "Bo-de, Bo-de." They know that his eccentric skiing style - butt back, feet forward, hands flying - and utter disregard for actually finishing a race, never mind winning it, will often produce compelling sport. In the combined downhill in the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, Miller was a nanosecond from disaster when he made what might have been the greatest 60 m.p.h. recovery in the history of skiing to claim a silver medal. He either lands...
...Rice, her character in the film, Johansson is a complex being. In the course of the interview, she is by turns cynical and bright-eyed, modest and—when it comes to talk of college—way too cool for school. She handles the interview like an utter professional, until she mysteriously ducks out of the conversation twice. Her explanation? “Sorry, my older brother is here and he’s driving me crazy.” WORKING WITH WOODY“Match Point” has been pegged by a fair share of critics...
