...Bush in Sacramento. California Democrats are furious about proposed cuts in Medicaid and several grant programs in the Education Department that will take away more money from the state at time when it still has a huge budget deficit. The 33 Democrats in the House, along with Senators Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, plan on asking Schwarzenegger why he isn't getting more from the White House, and why he isn?t asking congressional Republicans, especially those from California, to amend the federal budget so the state gets more money. "We want to know if he is strong enough...
...Brian Stokes Mitchell hasn?t got this message. The Broadway leading man is making his cabaret debut at Feinstein?s at the Regency (a night club in one of Manhattan?s swanker hotels), and, the poor sap, he wants to please us.

And in the past two Congresses, even moderate federal bills sponsored by California Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein--limiting purchases to 190 pills a month--died in committee because of industry opposition. Nonetheless, Feinstein and co-sponsor Jim Talent, a Missouri Republican, say the most efficient way to curtail the spread of meth factories is to deprive them of their raw materials. "This legislation is a dagger...
Assistant Professor of Government Andrea Campbell ’88 demonstrates the power of music to bring people together. When sitting in the clarinet section of the Harvard Wind Ensemble as an undergraduate, Professor Campbell had no idea that she would sit next to her future husband Alan Feinstein ’86. Today, Professor Campbell is the faculty advisor for the Harvard Pops Orchestra and her husband is the group’s conductor. Having played both the clarinet and piano since the age of 10, Professor Campbell dedicates most of her current musical time to the clarinet...
