Similar responses can be heard in schools across the U.S., as the Columbine horror galvanizes teenage evangelical Christians. "The Internet and the e-mail have been just huge on this among Christian kids and youth organizers," says Doug Clark, field director of San Diego's National Network of Youth Ministries. He reports hundreds of teen gatherings on the tragedy in "dozens" of states.

In any case, the deal was sealed when Gore, his wife and Coelho all met for two hours last Saturday at the Vice President's house...
...know, a bunch of burly law-enforcement types burst in a house in some low-rent neighborhood followed by a film crew. Well, don't expect to see any more such programs. In two unanimous rulings Monday relating to such coverage by the Washington Post and the Cable News Network, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it is a violation of the Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable searches "for police to bring members of the media or other third parties into a home during the execution" of a search or arrest warrant, if allowing such outsiders to tag along into...
