...side for the entire decade, says, "Pitchers are cared for here." Other teams, he says, "blame their pitchers--'Oh, we lost it on our pitching.' Those are the teams that won't be in a World Series anytime soon." Seven of the past eight National League Cy Young Awards sit on Atlanta mantelpieces, which is not only unprecedented but nearly unfair...
...they are friends again. They have bonded over mutual horror at the high-profile violence of the past year, beginning with the Shepard murder and culminating in September, when seven Christian young people were murdered at a Baptist church in Fort Worth, Texas. "Columbine, Paducah, the Gaithers, the Shepards, we don't like any of that," Falwell told TIME. It sounds a little odd to compare school shootings in Colorado and Kentucky with anti-gay slayings, but over the past few years, evangelical Christians have begun to see themselves as victims, just as many gays do. Conservative Christians have lost...
...would think Jane Clayson was just another ambitious young woman who landed a job in New York City--scrambling to find an apartment, deposited (temporarily) by her employer in what is, truth be told, a pretty crappy office.

My hunch is it's the latter, and that's one way to come up short...
...such an emergency. Even though I was within the affected area, I went outside in the rain and slept with my windows open. I know many people who did the same on the night of the accident because of the lack of information. Now I must see the young students I teach line up to get checked for radiation. I hope the citizens in Tokaimura and the surrounding areas will take an active role in making sure a life-threatening nuclear accident like this doesn't happen again. NAOMI COOK Kanasago, Japan...
