...other side of the coin, the Terriers have had defensive problems. B.U.'s defense--which lost some key players to graduation--trails the league, and its penalty kill is even worse than Harvard's at 69.6 percent...
Authorities have only themselves to blame for that transformation. Determined to prevent any disruption of the parliamentary session, military brass turned Jakarta into an armed camp. Troops blocked off key intersections as well as the Parliament building--ground zero for the protests that helped topple Suharto in May.

Despite ruling the death a homicide some weeks ago, local police in Michigan have yet to interview the 70-year-old doctor. "I'm not going to make a decision based solely on what's aired on TV," said Oakland County prosecutor David Gorcyca before watching the show. Meanwhile, some of Kevorkian's friends have expressed concern about this stand he's trying to take. "I think he's actually under the belief that he's not simply a doctor...
