DENVER: As deliberations in the Oklahoma City bombing trial continue, TIME's Patrick Cole reports that prosecutors are supremely confident that jurors will rule against Timothy McVeigh while the defense is hoping that a strong closing argument will bring reasonable doubt. It's about all McVeigh attorney Stephen Jones has left. After more than two years of preparation, spending between three and ten million dollars on the case, Jones presented only 25 witnesses in three days of testimony. The suddenness of the defense argument, contrasted with a sharp and thorough prosecution that crisply made its points with more than...
...most exciting musical events is the Lilith Fair. Started by singer Sarah McLachlan, it features only female performers. Last year Lilith had what McLachlan calls "a test run"--four dates. Starting July 5, it will include more than 35 shows, with such acts as Jewel, Paula Cole and Tracy Chapman, all of whom have agreed to play as many dates as their schedules permit.

But the exemplar of the visionary state was Blakelock's exact contemporary, Albert Pinkham Ryder...
Only 50 years after the nation's founding, the concept of Arcadia was passing. "The fear of decline started to nag at the edges of the American consciousness," Hughes notes. The show ends by focusing on one of the artists who memorably reflected that fear, Thomas Cole. He created a five-painting cycle called The Course of Empire, which stood as a warning that America--so new, so strong and shiny--could nevertheless be swept away in one cataclysmic moment...
