...agents searched Lee's office and discovered three computer tapes - VCR-size cassettes in metal jackets - containing downloaded weapons codes. Computer-forensics experts concluded that Lee had used his classified computer in the X Division, where nuclear warheads are designed and assessed, to download voluminous mathematical descriptions of the characteristics and performance of various thermonuclear warheads to an unsecure portion of the computer-storage system. Prosecutors say he stored the data in a subdirectory protected only by a password that consisted of his initials.

Attorneys for heavy-metal band Metallica and rap artist Dr. Dre sent a letter to Harvard Sept. 6 asking the University to ban student access to the Napster music-trading service via the campus network. The letter, which carries the implied threat of a lawsuit and requests a reply by Sept. 22, asserts that Harvard has a "moral, ethical, and legal obligation" to block Napster access.

I only know that if you want one of the old beauties, you've got to visit antique stories, for Pete's sake. Or you're forced to dig around in those slightly moldy '70s-themed kitsch stores, where you're likely to pay close to $50 for a reasonable facsimile of a real lunchbox. On eBay, you've got a bit more variety: $450 for a "very rare, domed 'Jetsons' lunchbox," or 99 cents for a Hulk...

...ridiculous for TIME to feature such a meaningless person as Woods and hail him as a hero simply because he had the nerve to change his swing in one of the most pointless and boring "sports"--hitting a ball with a metal stick. So what if he is good at what he does and gets paid millions? His contribution to mankind is still zero. RALPH GALLAY Plainsboro...
