Martina Navratilova must have a secret. The rivals of her youth have moved on--into retirement, onto highlight reels, up to the TV booth. Yet Navratilova, the tennis great who will turn 50 in October, is still whipping forehands past players who hadn't been born yet when she started on the pro tour in 1972. With her unusual endurance have come questions--lots of them. "The longer I play and the older I get," she says, "the more I get 'Why are you still doing this? How can you do it so well...

National Parks and Wildlife Service. The Aboriginal involvement in Webb's excavation team reflects thawing relations with the scientific world. After the discoveries of Mungo Lady and Mungo Man, whose ages are still fiercely debated, scientists flocked to the area. But in the 1980s, dismayed that artefacts and remains were being taken to museums and universities elsewhere, elders shut down research on human burials. For many...
