Before she starts dealing with all that, however, Hillary has to define herself as a candidate distinct from her husband. At first, her advisers were worried that doing so would lead to a spate of "rift" articles of the kind that have been chronicling tensions between Al Gore and the President. But Hillary and her team believe it is most important to ever-so-gingerly demonstrate that she is not his policy clone. (When she considered running for Governor of Arkansas in 1990, Morris has said, his polling indicated that voters would see her as a "stand-in" for Bill...
...reporter Bernard Baumohl. The fact is, reports Baumohl, that no country in the world is as advanced as the U.S. in the field of biotechnology. The Europeans are at least five years behind in developing a state-of-the-art expertise. ?They are worried the U.S. may have a distinct advantage at producing superior agricultural and meat products,? he says, ?and that they will lose a big market share.? The latest Agricultural Department move is unlikely to soften European opposition immediately. But at the very least, it promises to expose the smug confidence of many biotech proponents to the fresh...
...that Harvard cannot touch: a coeducational policy that stretches from its founding; a healthy mix of pre-professional and liberal arts students, including hotel-school students; and a rural environment with beautiful gorges, waterfalls and tracts of forest.

Pollack says this "is the story of a man who journeys off the path and then finds his way back onto it, a man who almost loses himself because something awakens a darker part of him, and he follows it against his own better sense." When...
...come from Turkey?s NATO allies, particularly in Europe. While Western governments don?t doubt the viciousness of Ocalan?s insurgency, they tend to put it in the context of Turkey?s denial of the cultural and language rights of its Kurdish population: Turkey treats any assertion of a distinct Kurdish identity as a threat to the integrity of the state. This has allowed Ocalan, during his trial, to cloak himself in the mantle of an interlocutor for a disenfranchised population ?- obviously mindful of the fact that in the Kosovo conflict NATO ostensibly went to war to secure autonomy...
