...think Timothy's outperformance has come mostly from avoiding media stocks--which, as we AOL shareholders know all too well, have stunk since 2000. That approach may not pay off so well in the years ahead. The more stocks a fund manager rules out on nonfinancial grounds, the harder it becomes to generate strong returns. I would advise investors to bear in mind a few things about any fund that picks stocks on ethical criteria...
...Airborn is a full-time jumper; Todd Lodwick, 25, of Steamboat Springs, Colo., and Bill Demong, 21, of Vermontville, N.Y., are part-timers. The U.S. has traditionally stunk in their event, the Nordic combined; Lodwick finished 20th at Nagano.

Building a sitcom around the Crocodile Hunter, say, or "The Naked Chef" - that might have stunk to heaven too. But at least it would have been timely. And that Naked Chef's awful cute...
...weather stunk for most of last week, but yesterday afternoon the sunlight broke through, just in time for the annual spring celebration on the MAC Quad. Although "Springfest 2000" was not nearly as bombastic as those of years past--sumo wrestling and gladiatorial combat among the most conspicuous absences--it was a genuinely festive event that did much to dispel the dreariness that accompanies April snowfalls...
