...came much more of the work we think of as quintessentially Bauhaus: spare, sharp-lined products like Marianne Brandt's geometric tea-and-coffee sets and Josef Albers' austere little stacking tables. Marcel Breuer devised his soon-to-be-famous tubular steel chairs with their bands of stretched black canvas, a skeletal combination of lines and taut planes that looked like an X-ray of a chair. Even then, while factory production may have been the aspiration for many pieces, old-fashioned handcraft may still have been the method behind them. The interlocking grids of Albers' glasswork Goldrosa give...
...crack sentencing goes to the heart of the credibility and fairness of the federal judicial system. The Department of Justice has launched a top-to-bottom review of sentencing and corrections policy, and crack-cocaine policy is a "vitally important" part of that, Assistant Attorney General Lanny A.

"You see other kids doing things and it looks fun and it's tempting, but then you look at where that's going to lead." Brenda Breuer, also from Hartford, agrees: "You know what's right and wrong, but other people may not have the same values and morals as you. They say, Come on, it's really fun, and you just have to say, I'll have my own fun, thanks. But it makes you feel separate...
