...have in similar circumstances. A deputy sheriff may make warrantless arrests for misdemeanors, but only if the misdemeanor involves a breach of the peace, occurs in their presence or view, and continues at the time of arrest. See Commonwealth v. Howe, 405 Mass. 332, 334 (1989); Commonwealth v. Grise, 398 Mass. 247, 251- 252 (1986). The fact that some individual HUPD officers have been appointed deputy sheriffs, or special State police officers, does not transform the HUPD, itself, into an agency of the Commonwealth such that it becomes subject to the mandates of the public records...

"It's actually still on the table," says Tim Brady, VP in charge of production at Yahoo!, adding that "All the new browsers are defaulted to white anyway." This is Yahoo!'s first face-lift in over a year. Why? The new face of Yahoo! makes more of the site's content accessible from the front page, including news feeds and a link to its gaming site...
Yumashev is an unlikely eminence grise. A rumpled, 40-year-old ex-journalist, he began working for Yeltsin in the late '80s. He avoids cameras and interviews, and those who know him say he is amiable, tough and determined. His relationship with Yeltsin is said to be almost as close as son to father. He works closely with Dyachenko, 38, whom Berezovsky describes as "the genetic copy of her father," quiet but very observant...
