CLEARED. ANTRON MCCRAY, 28, KEVIN RICHARDSON, 28, YUSEF SALAAM, 28, KHAREY WISE, 30, and RAYMOND SANTANA, 28; of their convictions in the savage 1989 rape and beating of a banker jogging in New York City's Central Park, for which all have served prison time; after new evidence convinced the prosecutors that the sole offender was another man, Matias Reyes; by a New York Supreme Court judge...

"There's a certain eloquence attached to the new technology...

Although at first glance he may seem like another investment banker, having co-chaired Goldman Sachs in the early 1990s, Friedman does advocate hard-line fiscal discipline and thus will hopefully oppose some of the more aggressive tax cuts that Bush is proposing. On the other hand, this policy leaves little room for proactive social spending that is needed in a weak economy...
