...When a cluster of five Navy Avenger planes was found off the coast of Fort Lauderdale last month, salvage experts were sure they had at last found Flight 19. Known as the Lost Squadron, its disappearance in 1945 had helped launch the legend of the Bermuda Triangle. Preliminary evidence seemed to support the experts' conclusion: the identifying numbers of two of the planes were the same, as was the number of downed aircraft...
...Duany and Plater-Zyberk were hired by quixotic developer Robert Davis to turn 80 acres of Gulf Coast scrubland into a resort, that they ceased being merely interesting architects and started becoming visionary urban planners. As with all revolutions, the essential idea was simple: instead of building another dull cluster of instant beach-front high- rises, the developer and designers wondered, why not create a genuine town, with shops and lanes and all the unpretentious grace and serendipitous quirks that have always made American small towns so appealing? Thus was born the town of Seaside -- and with it, the movement...
...form creations perfumed with the exoticism of the Orient. Entranced, Graham joined the Denishawn company, but left in 1923 to try Broadway dancing.

Juniors Becky Gaffney and Elizabeth Hansen will also play key roles for the Crimson...
...suffered its only two deaths in the war. A paratrooper stooped to pick up a greenish, tangerine-shape object, and it exploded in his face, killing him and a soldier standing nearby. Would-be rescuers tripped a similar explosive device, wounding 25. The munitions turned out to be antipersonnel cluster bombs that had been dropped earlier by U.S. aircraft. But after the smoke had cleared and an unchallenged French line lay strung across a third of Iraq's width, Paris felt it had grounds for some chest thumping. Said General Gilbert Forray, the army Chief of Staff: "We can never...
