...Sotho. They sang with joy, and they sang with conviction. Speaking in English, Tutu told the gathering that he had asked the government, "Please allow us to mourn, to bury our dead with dignity, to share the burden of our sorrow. Do not rub salt in our wounds ... I appeal to you because we are already hurt, already down. We are humans, not animals. When we have a death...
Winans, who plans to appeal, volunteered to do his time working in programs for victims of AIDS. Judge Stewart denied the request. Before the sentence was passed, Assistant U.S. Attorney Peter Romatowski disclosed that Winans had circulated to publishers an outline for a book titled Trading Secrets: Fear, Power and Greed on Wall Street. Winans said it would dissuade others from resorting to "unethical or immoral behavior." MORTGAGES Fannie Mae Gets Tough...

For his turnstile appeal, certainly not his .259 batting average, Rose was called home last August.

In 1982 he moved to head off the nuclear freeze movement by proposing deep cuts primarily in Soviet warheads...
Human rights have always been a touchy topic for Soviet leaders, and for Gorbachev more than most. Reagan plans an appeal to Soviet self-interest, arguing that it is abuses of human rights that make the U.S. public most suspicious of Moscow, and most unwilling to conclude agreements. Gorbachev has developed a counterargument that the U.S.S.R. values such "human rights" as full employment and free medical care, which the U.S. ignores. In addition, the Soviet press has lately been playing up such alleged U.S. violations of human rights as the Move bombing in Philadelphia. Sample fulmination: according to Pravda...
