...sure bets to win a gold. Instead, to everyone's astonishment, he scotched his first three attempts, ignominiously booting himself from the competition. This was more than simply the single biggest track-and- field failure of the entire Olympics; it was also a rent in the cosmic fabric, a mishap as inconceivable as A.J. Foyt's pulling his car out of the garage and backing over the family cat. The fans in Barcelona sat in shocked silence, then proceeded to whistle him out of the stadium--Europe's equivalent of a Bronx cheer. The debacle was so startling that some...

Chopra says that on a cosmic level, we all exist simultaneously throughout the universe. And he, for one, certainly seems omnipresent. Since the runaway success of his book Ageless Body, Timeless Mind in 1993, he has written one best seller after another, selling an astonishing 6 million copies. His videotapes (which include Growing Younger, a co-production with Time-Life Video) are legion. A Chopra Website is in the works as well as a CD-ROM touted as "the ultimate Chopra experience." For those who do not read, watch television or surf the Net, the man himself will most likely...

...Republican eastern prairie, the Freemen are holed up, surrounded by oddly tolerant G-men. In the more liberal western mountains, Ted Kaczynski, the suspected Unabomber, has been flushed from his trollish lair and jailed. For me, a resident of Montana's center (both geographically and politically), there's cosmic symmetry in this: right-wing nuts on one flank, suspected left-wing terrorist on the other. It's a state of affairs that feels almost like stability...

...space shuttle Atlantis and into history. Linda Godwin and Michael "Rich" Clifford are the first American astronauts to perform space walk outside of a Russian space station. This morning's walk outside of Mir was the first NASA spacewalk outside a space station since 1974. Godwin and Clifford attached cosmic dust catchers, paint samples and other materials to Mir. This is a stepping stone to building a mammoth international space station starting at the end of next year. The project is expected to be completed early next century. The six- hour spacewalk had an element of danger as Atlantis...
