The vast experience of Montgomerie, who has played in five Cups, and German Bernhard Langer, a veteran of nine who has expressed interest in the 2004 captaincy, will steady the team. Also look for Sergio Garc?a and Jesper Parnevik. In 1999, the fiery young Spaniard and the quirkily cool Swede were unbeaten in their four matches together.

"He was a leading figure throughout the period," says Dumas, an inventive mind who had an impact on many of the multifarious movements. He was also one of the few artists of stature to remain in the capital throughout...
...seventh detainee is Moroccan and the eighth, Luis José Galán González, is a Spaniard from a wealthy family and a convert to what investigators call a particularly fanatic style of Islam. Last July he went to Indonesia to train with the group Lashkar Jihad, which investigators say is supported by and allied to al-Qaeda. When he was arrested police found pictures of him dressed as a mujahedin with a shotgun in one hand and a pistol in the other. "When we put him in jail, he said he wanted two things: a toothbrush...
