...found his recent trial testimony a trifle thin on narrative detail. "I wish I could talk more," he wistfully told bystanders in the courthouse. When the defense begins its case in the wrongful-death lawsuit this week, Simpson and his lead attorney, Robert Baker, will have ample opportunity to expand on their version of the relationship between the defendant and his ex-wife Nicole and to explain in O.J.'s own words where he was and what he was doing the night she and Ronald Goldman were killed...
...that a major Asatru comeback is in the cards. Thor's best days are almost certainly behind him (though no fewer than 12 Asatru Websites are listed in the Yahoo! Web-indexing service). But there are plenty of other nearly extinct or quite localized creeds that could expand their compass via the Internet and thus heighten the world's already ample multiculturalism, for better or worse. Paganism, shamanism, voodoo, gnosticism, santeria--these and scores more are out there, accessible worldwide. So is the expanding pool of freshly coined sects, some of which will presumably survive.

Instead of pushing religion out of the houses and giving campus religious organizations full responsibility for its maintenance, the houses must embrace religion in order to make them true microcosms of the College...
...Columbia's Journalism school. The scheme ultimately began to unravel when Secret Service agents caught a man spending some of the phony bills and persuaded him to cooperate. Court documents show that the four-man forgery ring was not satisfied with the small time and was about to expand its operations to Chicago and Washington. The scheme began when Columbia student Clifford Evans asked Edward Olulenu to copy a few twenty dollar bills on the Journalism school's printer. Soon, Derek Warren and non-student Keith Blackwell were recruited to sell the bills. When Blackwell was finally arrested on November...
