...those 17 products? To "minimize impact" on Americans, says the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. And how does the USTR determine the impact? By throwing the tariff list open to a beagle chorus of special pleading--by U.S. manufacturers eager to get their European competitors barred, by U.S. importers desperate to keep their shipments coming--and to comment by regular folks like Davis, who are caught in the cross fire. There may have once been a time when politics stopped at the water's edge, but today it scarcely taps the brakes...
...public scrutiny hasn't been this intense since the first weeks of the scandal. Some of it isn't so bad. When she walked into a Los Angeles haunt, Lewinsky got a chorus of cheers. And it's common for people to stop, stare and offer unsolicited advice. But friends say the relentless paparazzi make her crazy.

She plays the piano, takes skating lessons and plans to add pottery and chorus. For fun Erica reads almanacs; her parents gave her a book of world maps and flags for Christmas. "My little researcher," her mother Christina says. There's not much Erica shies away from--except homework. Recently, she told her mother she doesn't want to go to middle school, high school or college because of homework. Asked if she might have...
Then they jam-packed the stage with British folk singer/tradition bearer David Jones, actors Patrick English, Sarah deLima and Richard Snee, the 40-member Revels Chorus, a merry company of Music Hall "artistes," the Pudding Lane Waits, the Dingley Dell Dancers, a parlor orchestra, the Cambridge Symphonic Brass Ensemble, The Pinewoods Morris Meri and the Rose Galliard Northwest Morris, the Pearly King and Queen, and a fake ferret. Do you know what that means? Again, the press release speaks through me. Basically there are a lot of people on stage, no one is particularly charming or memorable, they do ridiculous...
