Many privacy advocates are worried that the ruling could set a bad precedent for all kinds of privacy protections. "The court [in the Denver case] doesn't think privacy alone is enough," notes Deirdre Mulligan, staff counsel at the Center for Democracy and Technology. "They think an invasion of privacy has to lead to something else" before the government can intervene...
...intended to favor neither party, they fear it will fall hardest on Republicans, who consistently raise more in soft money. In July the party delivered computer presentations headlined "Soft Dollars: What It Means for Our Party" to each Republican member of Congress. Party chairman Jim Nicholson pressed his case at an Aug. 4 meeting of House Republicans, and party finance-staff members were dispatched recently to give members "education" sessions.

...least Bell has a shot. Most of the two dozen other wannabes are in the race so they can get a "real" job.

You'd want to avoid T bills and cyclicals and own bonds and growth stocks, including techs and bank stocks too. A good growth-stock fund should cover most of the bases...
...identification came as no surprise to Michigan authorities: they had arrested Reding with Kevorkian when the two men allegedly dropped off a body at a Detroit hospital. Reding was found innocent of charges stemming from the incident. He had also been suspected in three previous assisted-suicide cases in Michigan but not prosecuted. He now faces first-degree murder charges in New Mexico. CHARLIE BROWN, the deputy district attorney of Sandoval County, says he isn't interested in debate about assisted suicide, which is against the law in New Mexico. "I'm just trying to keep it a simple murder...
