Also Bay Rum. Al's eyes were still closed when the first bullet made a hole in his pudgy left hand. Both gunmen fired at him. Another slug went through Al's clothes, made him jump as though he had been hit with a baseball bat, and bloodied the soft, warm, white, middle-aged flesh of his right side. Al just had time to realize he was being killed. He kicked out in such convulsive fright that he broke the chair's metal footrest. Then he lurched up in adenoidal agony and knocked over a bottle...

A huge hole opened in the bus's floor while glass and splinters flew like bullets. At almost the same time, another bomb exploded in front of the Five Oceans Hotel, where more Americans were waiting to go to work.

What the excavators found was a looted grave, so despoiled (probably by the Saracens in 846) that much of it was a featureless hole. There was no trace of the bronze casket in which tradition said Constantine had placed St. Peter's relics. All that remained, buried at the rear of the grave niche, were a few bones. The Vatican has said only that they are human, that there is no skull among them, and that they are those of a powerfully built person of advanced age but undetermined sex. With this intriguing information −pending further Vatican disclosures...
