...place so beautiful a writer in the 1940s described it as "the pocket where the Creator keeps all his treasures. Anything will grow there." Live and let live, in fact. In the gated community of 2,500 million-dollar homes, the cult members rented the 9,200-sq.-ft. mansion at 18421 Colina Norte, complete with pool and tennis court, from Sam Koutchesfahani, paying him $7,000 a month in cash. And although many locals knew their new neighbors were involved in some sort of religious activity, no one was concerned enough to investigate any further...
...ambitious and elaborate war games ever, a laser-gun battle pitting a 2,000-soldier "experimental force" against the toughest men in the war-game business, Fort Irwin's vaunted 2,000-man "opposing force."

...muscle flexing in front of MRTA prisoners last week, Fujimori did take a closer look at their squalid lives, three or four men sharing 32 sq. ft. and a hole for a toilet. The President also accepted the petitions of those who say they were wrongly accused of terrorism--personally taking the smudgy pages as inmates shoved them through the bars. Fujimori promises to take them to the Belgian-born priest, Hubert Lanssiers, who heads up his commission to examine wrongful convictions. "I realize we have some incompetent judges out there," he admits. "Now that we've defeated the terrorists...
