...MARRIED. CARLOS BATUR?N, 69, and EMILIO MEN?NDEZ, 50; in Spain's first gay marriage since its parliament legalized same-sex unions last month; in Madrid. The couple applied to be wed after the new law, which does not distinguish between homosexual and heterosexual marriages, came into effect on July 3. Batur?n, a psychiatrist, and Men?ndez, a store-window decorator, first met 30 years ago when homosexuality was illegal in Spain; now, the country is the fourth in the world to legalize same-sex marriage...
...with people whose history isn't verifiable. You could end up with a shocker that you have to live with for the next 20 years," says Kelly Shackelford, chief counsel for the conservative Liberty Legal Institute. Shackelford likes long-serving federal-district-court judges such as Emilio Garza of San Antonio, Texas, who has suggested he would overturn abortion rights, or Edith Jones of New Orleans, who has criticized Roe v.

Here too is the white-hot French soprano Emma Calvé, a peerless Carmen; the Polish soprano Marcella Sembrich, who negotiates the Queen of the Night's treacherous coloratura con molto brio in a 1902 Magic Flute; and the soaring American soprano Nordica (née Norton), who must have been one of the most glorious Brünnhildes in history. And here...
...close of World War II. Instead, the third-generation Philippine-American may have discovered something of enormous historical value: a brittle, stained satin flag that the Philippine National Historical Institute reportedly says is "most likely" the nation's first. That would be the one designed in 1897 by General Emilio Aguinaldo while in exile in Hong Kong, and unfurled the following year when he declared independence from the U.S.?starting the first Philippine republic. The U.S. crushed the independence movement four years later, and the flag vanished...
