Perhaps the most outspoken signer of that defiant declaration was Andrew Craig Mead, the rector of the Church of the Advent in Boston. Church traditionalists like himself, Mead charged, for too long have been "victims of exclusion, ridicule and financial pressure," and are tired of being treated by church liberals as if they were "brain-dead." Mead and 1,800 like-thinking Episcopalians retaliated earlier this month during a three-day meeting in Fort Worth, where they formed an independent church-within-a-church called the Episcopal Synod of America. It is likely to bedevil the Episcopal Church for years...
...dissidents, who refuse to recognize women priests, decided to act after the February consecration of Boston's Barbara Harris as the first woman Episcopal bishop. Synod members decry the church's liberalized teachings on such matters as divorce, abortion and homosexuality. They also insist that parishes be allowed to use the 1928 Book of Common Prayer instead of the modernized worship forms that the church approved in 1979.

...nearby Evanston, Ill., Leslee Reis at her enchanting Cafe Provencal underlines sauteed foie gras with mango puree and cushions roast pheasant on mushroom ravioli. The menu at Lydia Shire's Boston restaurant, Biba, which is due to open this month, will feature dishes as stylistically diverse as Thai green-curry lobster soup, salad of rock crab and sashimi, and lambs' tongues with fava beans and cilantro. Even in New Orleans, where locals still favor their own Creole-Cajun kitchen, Susan Spicer, of the Bistro at Maison de Ville, has won converts with her Provencal improvisations...
...education programs that explore the emotional as well as the mechanical aspects of sex. Some schools have begun offering special courses in preventing violence. A ten-session curriculum, designed by Dr. Deborah Prothrow-Stith, the Massachusetts commissioner of public health, is being used in several high schools in Boston, Detroit and Denver. "We tell them anger is potentially constructive but they need to learn how to handle it," explains Prothrow-Stith. Students examine how fights begin and analyze videotapes of arguments...
