Moment Of Impact
A red sheen brims over the white paint of a crushed sedan. The air is punctuated by the slurring words of a man bellowing his innocence as police snap silvery handcuffs about his wrists.

THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE
When Shaun Lin stepped up to the table for his last arm wrestling match of the evening it smelled like Icy Hot and sweat. He looked calm.
