The Museum is a whimsical portrayal of daily life in the tiny,
tranquil village of Torrington, Alberta. There are 31 displays
housing 54 mounted gophers. Each display depicts a different theme;
hockey, hairdressing, farming, etc. Each character is dressed in
suitable attire to complement the artists' picturesque backgrounds.

Microsoft Corp.'s latest legal salvo in its antitrust battle with
two branches of the federal government argues that a judge's
decision to clamp down, for the time being, on the way the company
markets its Internet Explorer browser poses a grave threat not only
to the company but to the US economy and the American public, too.
In a related story, Netscape has responded to Microsoft's claim that
it doesn't know how to remove MSIE without rendering the system
inoperable with a step-by-step instruction sheet on how to remove
MSIE from a Windows system (and replacing it with Navigator, of
course). Microsoft claims this is a "cynical publicity stunt."
