Federal marshals this afternoon arrested an Arizona man they believe was traveling with Oklahoma City bombing suspect Timothy McVeigh immediately after theApr. 19 blast. Steven Garrett Colbern was arrested in rural Oatman, Ariz., on an unrelated federal firearms charge; a hotel owner had recognized him as a guest after agents showed his picture around town. The dark-haired Colbern, 35, was described in a news release from Upland, Calif., police as "Steven Garrett Colbern, AKA John Doe No. 2," but FBI officials today refused to say whether he could be the elusive suspect. Officials believe that Colbern might have driven...
...then woke our other two roommates, showing them our unexpected 'guest' and inquiring if they had any idea as to who she was or from whense she came. We huddled in the hallway, debating possible hypotheses, from drunken sex that defied consciousness to a gift from heaven. One look at ourselves and we knew the former wasn't the case; one look at her and we realized that this clearly wasn't an act of divine providence.

The writer declares "any attempt to attribute this mass exodus [of the Palestinians in 1948] to a single cause is only true in part, and therefore false." It seems it would be slightly more precise to say that although there were other pressures upon the Palestinians to flee their homeland in 1948, one indisputable cause of the mass exodus was the brutal...
Things got a little frosty in the usually frothy world of morning TV last week when BRYANT GUMBEL and OLIVER NORTH exchanged unflattering opinions of each other's work. When the Today show co-host charged that North "denounced" all the liberal guests he invited to be on his Washington radio show, North snapped, "You know, Bryant, I don't think anybody ought to take themselves as seriously as you do every morning. I don't take myself that seriously." Shot back Gumbel: "Oh, clearly not. Perhaps the oath should have been taken a little more seriously before lying...
