Even more damaging in the view of the White House were Aspin's frequent wobbles when he tried to articulate Administration policies in the media. During the first weeks of the fight over gays in the military he appeared on Face the Nation to air the view that Congress and the military brass had the power "to derail this thing." When he added that "if we can't work it out, we will disagree, and the thing won't happen," it sounded like an open invitation for opponents of the change to mobilize. Political insiders, however, sensed in the ousting...
Guns and attitudes; like so many American cities, Milwaukee is aching from the frequent and often fatal combination of the two. "It used to be your money or your life," says Sheriff Richard Artison. "Now they'll shoot you anyway." Since 1980 the city's homicide rate has doubled and now stands at more than 150 so far this year, spurred by a deadly convergence of gangs, drugs and ever more sophisticated weaponry.

"This seems likely to be the first DNA test that will find its way into general clinical practice," predicts Dr. Francis Collins, who heads the Human Genome Project that is mapping all 23 pairs of human chromosomes...
Kelley is 39, Detroit Irish and blue collar. He is an ex-Catholic but in some crucial respects a Catholic still, and his work is charged with religious references and rhapsodic diatribes of moral insult that verge on panic. Jesus makes frequent guest appearances, and so do felt banners that parody the soppy semiabstract devotional art of the all-but-forgotten Sister Corita Kent, a liberal nun of the '60s. I AM USELESS TO THE CULTURE, BUT GOD LOVES ME, one of | Kelley's banners reads. He is as deeply immersed in the religious aura of his infancy, pre-Vatican...
