...conviction for trespassing. The conviction stemmed from an incident in which Marie Howe's friend, Walter Silva, forcibly removed the door of one of Howe's tenants from its hinges, while Marie participated in the break-in. Two years later, the Journal gave front-page coverage to Marie's arrest for disorderly conduct during Queen Elizabeth's bicentennial visit to Boston; the paper reported that Marie bit the hand of her arresting officer, requiring him to go to the hospital to get a tetanus shot, and that she then gave the police an alias so they wouldn't know...

Figueiredo immediately extended -perhaps thrust was a better word-an olive branch toward those who had opposed his candidacy. "I will promote a political opening," Figueiredo told newsmen. "And if anyone opposes it, I will arrest them, break them. And I mean it." The statement was predictably hard-nosed, coming as it did from Geisel's hand-picked successor-the fifth general designated to govern Brazil since a military junta ousted President Joao Goulart nearly 15 years ago.

...abroad. Continuing his experiments at home, Kapitsa helped shed light on the extraordinary behavior of supercold helium-helium II-which acts as a perfect fluid, so lacking in viscosity that it will creep over the wall of a glass container.

Finally released after Stalin's death, he resumed the direction of his own Moscow Institute for Physical Problems, helped promote the idea of an entire city...

...Jackson '71, assistant dean of the Kennedy School and the man directly responsible for bringing a portion of Engelhard's ill-gotten millions to Harvard. He questioned whether we were fit to be members of an institution of higher learning. He and Epps made thinly-veiled threats of arrest, of disciplinary action by Harvard, and of our being held responsible for the actions of what used to be called "outside agitators."

...cannot explain, the personality that committed the rapes is a woman, Adelena, 19, who Milligan says is a lesbian. Allen, 18, is a sociable, talented artist and the only personality who smokes. David, 9, a frightened and abused child, may have made the call leading to Milligan's arrest. The police number was found on a pad next to Milligan's phone. Billy, 23, is the core personality-guilty, suicidal and "asleep" for most of the past seven years. When Wilbur first summoned up Billy, Milligan jumped off his chair and said, "Every time I come...
