And the specter of a bomb plot by Canada-based Algerian exiles grew Thursday as a Vermont prosecutor presented evidence linking Lucia Garofalo, arrested Sunday trying to cross into the U.S. along with an Algerian man, to terrorist organizations...
...handicapping of the next pope has already begun, if in hushed tones. Carlo Maria Martini, the 72-year-old Archbishop of Milan, is a favorite with the liberals; fellow Italian Camillo Ruini, 68, is a coalition-friendly conservative.

After making her debut last year in BLO's Lucia de Lammermoor Labelle was named The Boston Globe 1997 Musician of the Year, and with good reason.
