...Celtics: The local basketball team did abandon its historic home last year. So going to see a game isn't quite as neat as it was when the Celtics played on the parquet floor at the Boston Garden. But if you're a sports fan, your four-year tenure in the Boston area won't be complete without a trip to see Larry Bird's team...
...happen, no matter how big the Republican Convention bounce or how desperate the Democrats' need to entice jaded network anchors. Chelsea, who has attended only one State dinner, will ride the train to Chicago. She's no longer the vulnerable 12-year-old who walked into Madison Square Garden with her parents in 1992, when she was so protected that most people were surprised to discover the Clintons had a child. But at 16 she is still too young to be exposed to the Princess Di treatment--a Barbara Walters special, MTV, the cover of Seventeen--that might ensue...
...tobacco industry, the White House Rose Garden was exactly the wrong place for President Bill Clinton to announce new restrictions, as he did last week, on the sale and advertising of cigarettes.

The new FDA rules are intended to cut the number of teen smokers by 50 percent within seven years. Photo ID will be required to buy cigarettes, while vending machines will be eliminated in all but adults-only...
...Dole says he trusts in the hard way, and well he might, hailing from the garden of pressed sand called western Kansas, where the weather's hard, the water's hard, and anything that comes easy probably isn't worth having. This way, the hard way, says Dole, is the only way he has ever got anything and anywhere in this life. It is how he swallowed his pride as he and his family moved into the basement of his boyhood home so that oilmen could move in above them. How he came home from World War II not alive...
