To prove discrimination, you must also show intent to discriminate. The Justices will find that although race was used, it was used in a sufficiently rational and reasonable way as to require the rejection of a constitutional attack...
Philip W. Anderson, 53, who is a researcher at Bell Laboratories and a professor of physics at Princeton University, first became interested in physics as a student of Van Vleck's. He extended the basic understanding of magnetism and explained the conducting properties of electrons in amorphous materials like glass, which do not have the patterned atomic structure of crystalline substances like silicon. Sir Nevill Mott, 72, former head of the famed Cavendish Laboratory at England's Cambridge University, provided the theoretical underpinnings of modern solid-state physics in the 1920s. His later work with amorphous materials...
...Douglas Bell, a Cambridge developer, appealed to the City Council yesterday to exempt his townhouse development on Irving St. from zoning regulations concerning parking places...
Townhouses across the street from Bell's development sold for $82,000 to $89,000. Bell's townhouses would sell for approximately $65,000. The council voted against any specific actions, recommending that Bell apply for a waiver from one of the city's regulatory boards...
While it is difficult to say at this stage whether such a move is feasible, Bell's statement shows that the government will do what it can to prevent the ERA from going down at the hands of woefully misguided equal rights opponents.

Because it is unclear whether the seven year limit was a part of the amendment per se, changing the time limit could conceivably be legitimate...
