...history in Florence, arrived at Milan's central train station just 200 m from the site of the crash. Hours later, the 23-year-old - who has been in Europe for more than a year - continued to stare up at the hole in the former headquarters of the Pirelli tire company. "It's a very scary time. My dad has been wanting me back home for months." Three people, including Fasulo, were killed, and another 29 were injured. As the world tuned in and President George W. Bush received regular briefings, Milan tried to make sense of its unwanted attention...

Any battle in the past in which hundreds of enemy fighters were killed, compared with the loss of only eight of our own, is an overwhelming victory.

The freshman found her second wind and battled back from a 5-6 hole, winning the vital game on her serve at love. Lingman then won the first four points of the tiebreaker and held on for a 6-2, 1-6, 7-6 (7-5) victory to give Harvard its first win in its last California match...
...battle, said an emotional President Bush in Florida last week, "is a sign of what is going to happen for a while." In the war against terrorism, more American casualties are inevitable. One day, perhaps, Americans will tire of the slow drip of deaths--three here, five there--of the sort that old colonial powers like France and Britain once learned to endure. That hasn't happened yet; Shah-i-Kot marks the first time in many years that Americans have died in battle on a foreign field without a sense of outrage and shame at home. After 18 Army...
