'We were happy. Then he vanished.'
Article Abstract:
It is extremely difficult to carry on with everyday life when somebody you love has disappeared, according to Jane Noble, whose husband Matthew Choyce disappeared in Oct 1997 at the age of 34. She recalls that he seemed quiet and preoccupied for several weeks before his disappearance, and believes that he may have been clinically depressed. She is convinced that he is still alive, and emphasizes that she will never stop looking for him.

Hail the conkering heroes
Article Abstract:
The members of the Conker Club in Ashton, England, organize the World Conker Championships each year. This event is now in its 35th year, and has so far raised 162,000 pounds sterling for charities for the blind. It attracts competitors from several countries, and in 1999 256 men, 64 women and around 150 children have entered. There is generally a relaxed atmosphere, although some participants take the competition very seriously.
