Knoche, the precocious frosh, recorded her third straight shutout to begin her young collegiate career. She needed just two saves to pull off the feat, thanks to a strong defensive performance...
...Fairweather's 1952 journey proved to be the defining moment in his career, the stepping-off point for his later great abstractions, but the raft was quickly forgotten. Now, in a feat befitting the noble nuttiness of its originator, a fellow Antipodean has recreated it as a piece of "readymade" sculpture. New Zealand-born, German-based Michael Stevenson, 40, has built a career from the quirks of art history, teasing them out as art-museum "exhibits." Artist or anthropologist?

It was his idea to make Tanna the only island to record its kastom law in writing, a feat it completed in 1995, and though he worships in a church, at the same time Numake lives very much as kastom dictates. He embodies the meeting of two worlds found in many of his fellow ni-Vanuatu: a Western-dressed world traveler with a mobile phone and a partnership...
