Texas A&M struck just eight minutes into the game. The crisp passing of forwards Juli Goin and Heather Ragsdale allowed the Aggies to weave straight through the Harvard defense. After beating the final defender, Ragsdale took an open shot at point-blank range and drilled the ball past the freshman keeper Durkin...

Miguel Adrover's formidable buzz has been built on the strength of just two tiny shows. After the second one, in which he showed a jacket made from the ticking taken off a mattress that was discarded on the street (and reportedly had belonged to the recently deceased Quentin Crisp), the fashion pages were practically wet from all the drooling. They raved over the inventiveness and "elegant edginess" of such outfits as the the two pairs of flannel pants with Hermes belts, one of which was retailored as a jacket, right, or the navy sweatshirts with Yankees baseball caps worked...

Consider, instead, what Woods did right after he dominated the 1997 Masters. He studied videotapes of his performance: blasting 300-yd. drives, hitting crisp iron shots right at the pins, draining putts from everywhere.

...right down to it, are there other things to think about? O.K., maybe global warming, the upcoming presidential election, blah blah blah. Still, despite this CD's thematic simplicity, it boasts what many other current hip-hop releases lack: strong, sure hooks. The rhythms are vigorous, the production is crisp, and Nelly's rapping manages to be both laid back and engaging. It's been said that Nelly--who scored a chart hit with the punchy title track--is trying to do for St. Louis, Mo., what Master P did for New Orleans: put his hometown...
