...beneath Stein's quirky urban-gentleman exterior beats the heart of a Washington insider's Washington insider. A former president of the D.C. bar, Stein is the man politicians turn to when their dignity is on the line, the issue is delicate or the stakes are high. He represented Oregon Senator Robert Packwood when he was charged with sexual misconduct. Reagan press secretary James Brady hired Stein when he filed several lawsuits after being paralyzed by bullets meant for his boss. And when a special prosecutor was needed in 1984 to investigate Reagan-aide Ed Meese, it was Stein...
...sound track When Harry Met Sally, Connick displayed flashes of Sinatra's golden tones and a dash of his lush romanticism. You could almost imagine the bobby soxers.

Well, yes, if you're passionately attached to the image of ivy-covered brick (and centipedes), white moldings, fireplaces and winding stairs. What Currier has instead: a cozy, bright, immaculate look (it's even cleaner than Pforzheimer); cheerful carpeting and comfortable chairs and sofas tucked in every nook and corner of the house; the most pleasant dining hall on campus, always sociable but never noisy, completed...
