...went. Colby went too far, won not one but two too many challenges, and suddenly he was way past smooth-it-over-with-a-little-piece-of-the-Great Barrier Reef. Missing its teeth, hair and pecs, the Ogakor alliance of cards crumbled, and Amber went, but only because Colby had that durn necklace on. And now we'll see how far the direct route gets the cowboy now that he's traveling it alone...
...then the cowboy Cary Grant and the low-rent Grace Kelly went to the Great Barrier Reef by helicopter - see you later, Amber, I got work to do - for a big lunch and a snorkel. And there amid the coral occurred a great, G-Rated Romance, Hollywood-style. (Fast-action "happiness montage" included.) They were destined to be together, you see, and besides we had a subplot to plumb: Jerri making her move (and her moves) on the king of the tribe that maybe needed a reason to keep her around. Very "To Catch a Thief," with maybe just...
...putting greens. Canuck's Sportsman's Memorials Inc., based in Des Moines, Iowa, packs the ashes of duck- and pheasant-hunting enthusiasts into shotgun shells.

The Jessica hit a reef near San Cristobal island, causing a 1,200-sq-km oil slick. Although environmentalists expressed relief that favorable winds and currents had limited the amount of oil washing up onto the islands, at least one pelican and two sea gulls are known to have died, and long-term damage could include negative effects on the archipelago?s algae, which form a vital part of the Galapagos food chain...
Your sensationalized account of the shark attacks off the Florida coast only perpetuates the general public's irrational fear of sharks [AMERICAN SCENE, Sept. 4]. I have scuba dived and snorkeled in close contact with several species of sharks, including many hundreds of schooling hammerheads and silvertip reef sharks, and have seen only fear, wariness, curiosity or indifference on the part of the sharks. They are beautiful, awesome creatures that are being decimated by shark finners and purse-seine factory ships. DAVID MCCULLOH Cupertino, Calif...
