Will the Ducks win the Stanley Cup? Will the Angels make it to the Series? Will Tawny Kitaen stay out of jail? Will terrorists hit one of our local targets: Disneyland, the San Onofre nuke plant or TBN headquarters? Should they hit Disneyland? Will home prices collapse? What will happen first: our troops out of Iraq or Bush out of the White House? And what about Britney Spears? Will she find love, or if she can't find love is this crazy world not worth a hill of beans? What kind of beans? Kidney
Judges at the Missouri School of Journalism considered more than 1,200 entries and yesterday awarded OC Weekly second place nationally for General Excellence in our circulation category among both daily and alternative newspapers.

having failed out of its secretive drug diversion program (which was
shut down last year after repeated failed audits)? Turns out
doctors like Brian West, who the state Medical Board allowed to keep
