...Order and Christian Identity ?- and was said to have once lived with Debbie Mathews, widow of the Order?s founder (they met at an Aryan Nations gathering). And he has been a voluntary prisoner before; last November, Furrow tried to commit himself to a psychiatric hospital in a Seattle suburb, but couldn?t go through with it; he wound up pulling a knife on staffers. Also that he had something bigger in mind. Furrow?s red van, purchased Saturday, was filled with ammunition, bulletproof vests, explosives and freeze-dried food. Asked about that, L.A. police Chief Bernard Parks let down...

But as my summer in Jerusalem and the Middle East continues, I have become increasingly attuned to drinking, washing, watering, swimming, cleaning and flushing--anything that involves the precious molecule, H2O. Water availability and attitudes towards this natural resource are subtle yet omnipresent symbols of the different worlds which coexist here, as well as a source of conflict between them...
...year mortgage--and paid it off in six years. He also once owned a pair of shiny Lincoln Continentals. But he gave up those things 23 years ago when he and his wife were divorced. Today he lives in a one-bedroom apartment in Highland Park, a gritty Detroit suburb. He drives a red 1985 Ford Escort that runs just fine, thank you--though neighborhood thieves have forced him to do without hubcaps...
