...video release. But this suit was personal. Katzenberg often referred to Eisner as a father figure; Eisner had been his mentor for 19 years at Paramount and Disney. So he had to be stung by Eisner's offhand slur, in informal notes for an autobiography, that "I think I hate the little midget"--a remark notable not just for its animosity but also for its redundancy (a former English professor of Eisner's called the CEO to make just that point). The gibe, says a Katzenberg colleague, "was so painful that no money could make him feel better. What Jeffrey...
Dershowitz said it was unlikely that he would have represented Hale in any event. He had originally agreed to represent him on the condition that all fees from the case go to anti-hate groups such as the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Indeed, it can't be. The big mining companies--which the opal miners hate, along with the government and the cops and the tourists--have never devised a profitable means of detecting or extracting opals. It's handwork.

But despite the moans you will hear from supporters of affirmative action, it may not be such a bad thing. It could force African Americans to rediscover a piece of mother...
...that killed the Korean-American, a graduate student. Survivors of all the incidents described a white man, aged 20 to 30, in a light blue Ford Taurus. At first, police offered careful demurrals as to whether the shootings were racially motivated -- "We're not saying it's not a hate crime," said Chicago police spokesman Pat Camden. "What we are saying is at this particular moment in the investigation, the elements for a hate crime are not there" -- but the later identification of a suspect from a white supremacist group indicated that they had narrowed their field of inquiry. Then...
