...over it. Next Monday JANN WENNER is due to show up in Idaho with a mason jar of old gold coins as the first step in a court case over who owns it. Construction worker GREGORY CORLISS, above, right, claims he was digging a driveway on Wenner's woodsy hideaway in Idaho when he noticed some coins in the soil. On further inspection, he and his boss, LARRY ANDERSON, found a mason jar full of them, dating from 1857 to 1914. Corliss says he gave them to Anderson as collateral for an $11,000 loan. When he came...
...trade votes, abortion fights and a health-care bill passed just moments before the bell rang shortly after 3:10 p.m., telling lawmakers that school was out, the week's work was over and they could go home.

The group's roots sprouted in 1993 when Jim "Jimbo" Mathus and Katherine Whalen formed a communal studio for disenchanted musicians in upstate New York. Their creative hideaway attracted an unusual array of artists that included a biomedical engineer, political worker, scientific repairman and professional gardener, all of whom were dissatisfied with the paths their lives had taken. This unlikely array of people soon discovered a common style of music, and with the addition of a few professional...
...people ever visit Weil in his desert hideaway, untold numbers somehow manage to reach him nonetheless. Every week a flood of more than 500 pieces of paper mail--passed on, bucket-brigade style, from publishers, post-office boxes and agents--washes up at Weil's door. Thousands more pour in electronically, transmitted to Weil not at his unpublicized mailing address but at his widely known Web address (www. drweil.com) If the tone of the letters is not exactly rapturous, it comes pretty close...
