...least five people dead, a newspaper and a police fraternity in shock and a community stunned to its core." On the afternoon of Aug. 19, Carl Drega, a loner with a murderous grudge and an AR-15 assault rifle, gunned down New Hampshire state troopers Scott Phillips and Les Lord, stole Phillips' police cruiser, then drove to the newspaper building at 1 Bridge Street, where he shot and killed Vickie Bunnell, an attorney and part-time judge whose office was in the building, and Joos, the co-editor of the paper. Before the terror ended with the death of Drega...
...cast itself is chock-full of dynamic players. Amblad and O'Toole, as Petruchio/the Lord-ette and Hortensio/the first Hunter-ette, respectively, show great versatility as actors in their shift from effeminate pranksters to clever, sophisticated noblemen. Jesse Hawkes's cane-waving, unexpectedly spry Gremio stands out as one of the show's best comic touches, as do the hilarious antics of Grumio (Doug Miller) and Biondello (Andrew Mandel '00, a Crimson editor). Even Tranio, played by Adam Green '99, though not as facially expressive as the rest of the cast, has good comic timing and blends in well with...
Members of the church celebrate the Lord's Supper with water rather than wine or grape juice. They believe their President is a prophet who receives new revelations from God. These can supplant older revelations, as in the case of the church's historically most controversial doctrine: Smith himself received God's sanctioning of polygamy in 1831, but 49 years later, the church's President announced its recision. Similarly, an explicit policy barring black men from holding even the lowest church offices was overturned by a new revelation in 1978, opening the way to huge missionary activity in Africa...
...fashion-industry friends to some of the world's most celebrated clotheshorses, including PRINCESS DIANA and CAROLYN BESSETTE KENNEDY, gathered in the Duomo in Milan, where ELTON JOHN and STING (who wore Versace to his wedding to TRUDIE STYLER) performed an a cappella rendition of Psalm 23, The Lord Is My Shepherd. The designer's sister DONATELLA and brother SANTO wept profusely, as did NAOMI CAMPBELL. John too was particularly overcome. Before the service he broke down in tears in front of the urn containing Versace's ashes. Earlier in the week, a British newspaper editor had borne the brunt...
DETROIT: Sergei Federov. Vladimir Konstantinov. Fetisov, Kozlov, Larionov. The stars of the Detroit Red Wings' 1997 Stanley Cup team were more than an example of the NHL's decidedly foreign flavor. They were the Red Army. So it is fitting that this summer, Lord Stanley's Cup will make its first trip to the former Soviet Union. The cup will be in Russia from Aug. 16-19. Fetisov, Kozlov and Larionov plan to parade the Cup through the streets of Moscow and then put it on display in Red Square. The announcement comes on the same day that Konstantinov...
