...found slaughtered--its antler rack carved out of its head--in the Pinery, a cushy bedroom community a few miles southeast of Denver. In Des Moines, Iowa, two men from Arkansas were convicted of illegally hunting trophy-size deer at the local airport. And poachers with crossbows built a tree stand in a public park in Redwood City, Calif., scattered bait and waited for black-tailed deer to mosey by. "Poachers show no lack of guts. There are no rules they won't break," says Craig Lonneman, a conservation officer with the Iowa division of natural resources. "It always seems...

Darnielle constantly scans the crowd, making eye contact with everyone, allowing his own joy to spill out over everyone.

I wish that little chip in my Nikes would malfunction. It's telling the nano my pace, and the nano in turn is taunting me: a 10-min. 30-sec. clip, with about another half a mile to go. I sprint--and almost die--near the finish. One mile completed, the nano screen reads. My time: 9min. 42sec. Yes! Cue the Chariots of Fire music...
