...grand jury prefers the latter explanation. Barton was indicted Wednesday on arson charges; Colorado authorities say she deliberately started a wildfire southwest of Denver on June 8th. The blaze, the largest in Colorado history, has ravaged 135,000 acres of parched land, destroying 25 houses and driving nearly 8,000 people from their homes...
...come out with his hands up. "It was very nice and quiet," Johansen says, recalling the day when three officers - two from ?kokrim, Norway's economic-crime investigation unit, and one local policeman - visited his house in Steinsholt, a small town about an hour and a half southwest of Oslo.

ROCK-SOLID SUTRA Nobody knows why the ruling 10th century Chandela clan picked this desolate spot on a heat-seared plain 300 kilometers southwest of Varanasi as the site for its prodigious spree of temple building?nearly 100 in as many years. But it's a good thing the Moguls, who were lopping off the heads of idolatrous sculptures in their rampage across northern India, never found them. They would have been apoplectic with rage at the temples' stone figures communing in sexual positions that would make a Pattaya prostitute blush...
