In the days after last Wednesday night's initial air attack, the anger and determination that brought NATO and Yugoslavia head-to-head seemed to snake out like that tiny flame in the video, triggering all kinds of "secondaries." On Saturday night the combat came home to Americans, who had their television shows interrupted by images of an F-117A Stealth fighter in flames on the ground inside Yugoslavia--and the astonishing story of the rescue of the downed pilot. Earlier in the week U.S. embassies from Moscow to Paris...

...Determined to overthrow this taboo, she interviewed hundreds of dying patients, sometimes in the presence of startled medical students. Her best-selling 1969 book, On Death and Dying, detailed her now popularly accepted conclusions. The dying, she wrote, go through five psychological stages: denial ("No, it won't happen"), anger ("Why me?"), bargaining ("God, just a little longer?"), depression and finally acceptance. Lecturing and writing at a furious pace, she went on to campaign for hospice care in the U.S., gave countless "life, death and transition" workshops around the world and tried to help babies with AIDS.
