...invincible," Harvard forward Ed Krayer said. "On any given night, we can lose. But I don't think there was any doubt--on either side--about who was the better team tonight. Maybe this will just make us a little hungrier the next time...
...well as $3.6 million to LACMA. And in any case, LACMA's master plan for expansion was mostly drawn up before the 1980 announcement of MOCA's founding. "The record has already proved that we haven't detracted from each other in the search for funds," says Powell. Few doubt that Los Angeles can manage to support two museums of modern and contemporary art, and Powell dismisses the idea that LACMA and MOCA will end up cutting each other's throats.

...this time a condition I did not have before. I have age. I am a grumpie, a gray, upwardly mobile professional (although, silly me, during the last absence from the city I forgot to make a zillion dollars, the requisite for settling in today).

Judge Brunson Moore found his confession involuntary and | ruled Lucas had not knowingly waived...
...collapse of the Apodaca case, following a prolonged pretrial hearing, "puts in doubt the prosecution of Lucas on any case based on a confession," contends his co-counsel Rod Ponton. That could include not only previous convictions, which Lucas now wants to fight, but also some 20 pending charges. The Apodaca case was considered one of the strongest remaining against Lucas. Besides his written confession, investigators say he led them to the scene of the killing. His attorneys, however, produced witnesses supporting his new claim that he was 600 miles away on the night of the crime. Further, blood...
