...affirmative action opponents, Blum said he and other groups would continue to oppose race in admissions, but focus their attention on summer programs and scholarships that are given only to minorities. Other groups, too, may continue to file suits against college affirmative actions programs. Because the decision doesn't completely outlaw affirmative action or permit it in all cases, students are likely to file suit against other colleges, arguing that their affirmative action programs favors race too much and doesn't focus enough on the individual applicant as the Court calls on universities...
...police force," Sarrazin told TIME. "But to be honest, there has been mostly an adverse reaction." The cuts are being felt. Public swimming pools have been closed, a new subway line has been abandoned midway through construction, and the city has imposed a hiring freeze, not replacing teachers or file clerks who retire or leave the city. The Berlin police force will hire only 100 new officers a year until 3,000 jobs have been cut through attrition.

...fashioned events, but that hasn't stopped IBM from using this year's edition of the tennis tournament as a kind of tech lab. Equipment from IBM and Cisco is being used to turn the entire Wimbledon site into a wi-fi zone.

Had a Kaiser whistle-blower not tipped off the California medical board in 1996, sparking an investigation that led to McEnany's surrender of his licenses in California...
Restorations take place down the corridor, in an airtight clean room where engineers wear space-age bunny suits. Once a drive is painstakingly picked apart, cleaned and put back together, its contents are copied onto a bank of 31 servers. Then the engineers match the jumbled data to file types. This gets harder as the number of file types on a drive increases. Two months ago, San Francisco Web designer Kathleen Craig lost a laptopful of media in dozens of formats, including her resume and wedding pictures. DriveSavers was able to return 80%--lower than average, but for Craig...
