Moments later, a huge blast ripped into the powder blue 1981 Toyota Corona, hurling it across the three-lane road. An improvised explosive device, intended for the patrols, had gone off just 10 feet from the car. The two men were slammed against the windshield, shattering it, and were showered by a hail of shrapnel. Salah's left arm and hand were torn to shreds below the elbow, and blood spurted from two gaping wounds in his left thigh. Both men were lacerated by shrapnel and burned. A shard of glass cut a deep gash in Abu Karam's neck...

...DeLay has long been one of Congress' most vocal critics of what he calls Castro's "thugocracy," which is why some sharp-eyed TIME readers were surprised last week to see a photo of the Majority Leader smoking one of Cuba's best-a Hoyo de Monterrey double corona, which generally costs about $25 when purchased overseas and is not available in this country.

...West Point plebes mature into upperclassmen oppressors. It is ironic that in a place that stresses valor, no one has had the courage to say "Enough!" to the treatment of plebes. West Point proves that respecting human dignity and training military leaders are mutually exclusive activities. Patrick J. Murphy Corona, Calif...

Fine hops, top-fermentation, small batches. So far, the beers offered at bi-weekly Pub Nights in Loker Commons have been missing all of these characteristics. Brews in Loker start with one dollar drafts of Pabst Blue Ribbon, and reach their pinnacle at Heineken, Newcastle, and Corona. As a member of the Harvard Beer Society, the sorry state of the beer selection at Loker Pub Nights has watered down my enthusiasm. People go to bars because of the variety and quality of the drinks.
