If the safest place on a campus street is in front of a final club, then I suggest we have a saftey problem...
...California has set up a Phylloxera Task Force, but no chemical treatment has proved effective against this new biotype, and experts cannot rule out further mutations.

True, she isn't close to her best times, but neither is anyone else. As the world's most famous woman swimmer...
...cellophane new that in some shopping malls the trees are not yet shade size. "We can see some urban pressures like graffiti start to spring up," says Mayor Greg Stratton, but he stresses that "among towns over 100,000, Simi Valley is one of the two safest communities...
