...Stine (Christian Roulleau '01) is a hack writer who churns out detective pulp to feed the studios, living vicariously through his fictional hero and alter ego, the hardboiled gumshoe Stone (Dan Berwick '01).

At points, the setsand music are manipulated with skill to slip fromone world to another. It is the generalprofessionalism of the production that makes theever-present mic trouble annoying in contrast. Infull, this production demonstrates a very strongconceptual...

Germany's Nicola Thost took the first women's halfpipe gold and Norway's Stine Brun Kjeldaas picked up the silver. American Shannon Dunn slipped slightly just before the end of her second run to fall back from the lead, but took bronze...
Hartford's strength lies in midfield, where Stine Bohle has already been singled out for individual honors after scoring two goals, including the gamewinner, in the victory over UConn. Her efforts landed her a place in Soccer America's Team of the Week...
