...zoning to limit nude bars," says Sanders. "Now they're saying you can actually regulate the content of speech, and that's dangerous ground."

But even First Amendment advocates must have been able to glean some entertainment value from the case - after all, it's not every day that you hear Sandra Day O'Connor pontificate on the erotic value lost when...

...love. Hey, its the '60s. When she's killed in a car bombing, he goes on to a conventional political career. Years later Connelly starts haunting Crudup: phone calls, glimpses on the street.

...next challenge for Spyder, besides finding access to Harvard's underground network of tunnels, will be Memorial Hall and Widener. It's an immense challenge, for sure, but for Spyder, it's just another evening of stress relief. For some, calming the nerves means reaching for a Coors Light. For Spyder, however, where every building is a mountain, this handsome first-year heads for the Rockies...
