	Observer \| Miracle on ice
		The problem with miracles is that when you analyse them they seem, well, less miraculous.

		Iced coffee may actually be cheaper to make than hot coffee, because it often uses several-hours-old coffee that would otherwise be thrown down the drain.
		In fact, coffee shops almost always use icemakers to produce their own ice, so the additional cost is for water, which is a marginal expense and shouldn't impact the price of the coffee.
		Iced drinks are also served in plastic cups (rather than paper cups) and typically entail the use of wrapped straws, as opposed to the wooden stirrers used in hot drinks.

		Miracles director, Gavin O'Connor, rightly put Brooks, a former player who had been cut from the 1960 Olympic team at Squaw Valley, California, in the center of the rink.
		Coach Brooks, who died before Miracle made it to the screen, might have been inspired by President Carter's infamous malaise speech, as Miracle suggests, but the rest of the wounded nation saw it as a slap in the face by an incompetent president.
		The so-called miracle on ice only felt like a miracle because it represented the central conflict of the worlds bloodiest century: between individualism and collectivism and, for once, the good prevailed.

		As time was expiring, the Americans fired the puck down ice while the Russians were headed to the locker room prematurely.
		A miracle had been created, one which has stood the test of time, and the likes of which we will never see again.

	A 'Miracle' -- from the ice to the silver screen
		Ranford didn't see the game that is the climactic moment of the film, the "Do you believe in miracles?" victory against the Soviet Union that made unlikely heroes of guys like Jim Craig.
		He says the benefit was discovering that, while the glacial pace of moviemaking is opposite the frenetic tempo of ice hockey, the two disciplines share similarities.
		If "Miracle" succeeds, it will be with this sense of camaraderie shining through a production that no doubt will be seen as mawkish by some critics as the music swells to the inevitable moment when the U.S. team has its watershed victory.
