Editors of the Lampoon--a semi-secret Bow Street social society which occasionally publishes a so-called humor magazine--wrapped their "castle" in police tape and boarded up the entrance...
...footage on the two videos was wobbly and out of focus, but clear enough to shock Canadians last week as they watched late-night national television news. One of the tapes showed soldiers of the elite Airborne Regiment at Petawawa, Ontario, a base 115 km northwest of Ottawa, participating in vicious and racist hazing rituals in 1992.

...video taken at Petawawa shows soldiers urinating on recruits, along with scenes of simulated masturbation and oral sex.

Presented as his response to the 300,000 people who have written to him in jail, the book was co-authored with Lawrence Schiller, a freelance writer who also collaborated with Norman Mailer on the Pulitzer Prize-winning "The Executioner's Song." O.J. writes: "I could never kill anyone, especially Nicole," and complains of an untrustworthy legal system and a sensationalist and racist media. He says he would "jump in front of a bullet" to protect his ex-wife. Much...
