...well as Everett (.300, 34, 108) and All-Star closer Derek Lowe (4-4, 2.56 ERA, 42 saves). They've got one of baseball's best managers in Williams--who provides Boston's hardball beat reporters with fresh "Jimywocky" insights each day--and ownership more and more willing to shell out the big bucks necessary to compete with the evil Yankees and other big-market teams...
...When the shelling began one sunny afternoon last week in the tiny mountainside village of Sipkovica, Fekrige Muharemi figured that the best place to protect her family would be on the ground floor of her home, a recently built, two-story whitewashed house with thick concrete-block walls. She even invited two other families--15 children and 10 adults--to shelter with her. The illusion did not last long.

His beautiful young date seemed shell-shocked. One surmised that she'd perhaps seen his legs before, but not through a slit skirt fashioned from a hotel tablecloth. "Quills" star Geoffrey Rush sadistically lampooned his fellow Aussie Russell Crowe by appearing as a vain over-the-top gladiator, displaying even more legs and obnoxious personality than...
...does the price of a bus balloon to $1 million? It begins the same way a familiar charter bus begins, as a $300,000 chassis, frame and outer shell manufactured by Prevost Car of St. Claire, Que., and a 500-h.p. Detroit Diesel engine. Then one of several companies known in the motor-home industry as converters, such as Marathon Coach or Liberty Coach, packs a remarkable apartment into the shell instead of fitting it with seats. The electronics mimic those of a space station. When the bus is parked and the time comes to picnic in the shade...
