...wearing dark clothes and had no lights. The officer asked him where he was going, he was going home to his "father" and used the named Shawn Devlin. "Shawn did not respond to initial questions, so the officer asked him to get off his bike." He was about a mile to mile-and-a-half from Devlin?s home, and the police officer - it appears from the incident report, the chief said - sent...
...Until his arrest last Friday on kidnapping charges, Michael Devlin, 41, led a life that seemed limited to a three- or four-mile radius from the place he grew up, Webster Groves, an upscale suburb of St. Louis. "He was just a big, friendly marshmallow," said one neighbor who knew Devlin in his youth.

This is unfortunate for anybody else...
...capital, Baku, Bala Mirza sits peering at a fuzzy map on a computer monitor. The outline of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey looks like little more than a jumble of hills and farming towns. But for the engineer, 41, what lies underground has rocked his world: a new 1,100-mile oil pipeline, which in recent months has tied this tiny country on the edge of the Caspian Sea to the huge Western market. "There is a lot of oil and a lot of money," says Mirza, who spent 14 years earning about $10 a month working on a creaking...
