...reflection of a continuing ambivalence about him that 47% of those same respondents believed that Lee's family connections helped him get to the top. Those doubts remain despite a concerted media campaign highlighting Lee's human side. Themes have included his battle with cancer in the early '90s, his sense of loss after the death of his first wife in 1982, the challenges of raising an autistic son, and the fact that he occasionally eschews his habitual suit and tie for a polo shirt. The Straits Times even detailed his permissive parenting style under the headline, IT'S OKAY...
...room 121 at the Australian Institute of Sport cycling facility in Adelaide last year. The five were cleared last month by an investigation headed by a former judge. One of them, Sean Eadie, faced a separate charge of importing human growth hormone (hGH) from the U.S. in the late '90s.

Comeback efforts in the '90s were sidelined by a stroke and hip-replacement surgery...
...Clinton's Legacy Joe Klein thinks Bill Clinton's book will usher in "a brief return to the noxious '90s, a brouhaha for which not many people are nostalgic" [June 28]. This is a clear example of a writer's getting carried away by his powers of alliteration. Everybody I know is nostalgic for the '90s, but maybe people like us, who come from the L.A. ghetto, don't count. When Bill Clinton dies, the streets of Washington, D.C., will be thronged with weeping, praying mourners. But they won't be like the people who watched Reagan's funeral procession...
