Assassins' authors, whose end-times shoot-'em-ups have spawned a website and a movie deal and earned them millions of dollars, prefer to view their books' appeal in less secular terms. "People," says LaHaye, "are beginning to realize that something in this world is happening that has never happened before. The technology is going out of sight, one-world mania seems to be gripping the world." A self-described "prophecy scholar" and minister for more than 50 years, LaHaye, 73, concerns himself less with the books' prose than with their biblical underpinnings, turning ancient references to plagues and famines...
...boosters insist the long-legged dwellings are a romantic reminder of how people and nature once harmoniously co-existed in Florida. "My son is studying to be a biologist because of the love for wildlife he nurtured out here," says J.R. Hinsley, a plant-nursery owner whose stilt house--a furnished, air-conditioned "hunt camp" he calls the Fontainebleau--sits above alligator nests deep in the Everglades, southwest of Boca Raton, accessible only by airboat.

ARRESTED. MARTIN FRANKEL, 44, fugitive financier whose trading firm may have been the center of a sophisticated scam that siphoned some $335 million from a web of insurance companies; by German police on a warrant charging him with U.S. federal money-laundering and wire-fraud offenses; at a hotel in Hamburg. Extradition is expected to take several months. After flying to Rome in May, Frankel vanished. At one point, a report had him in Brazil. Mona Kim, his office manager and a companion in the early part of his journey, told CNN that there was no high living...
...shield their kids from bullets. Ben's and Rebecca's parents did keep them close in a highly structured setting, mostly to instill Christian values. These families are from the right wing of home ed, while Katie's family is from the secular left or "unschooling" tradition whose clarion cry was "do your own thing." Tad's folks are among a host of middle-grounders who feel they are combining the best of both...
