...Harvard Law School's (HLS) media office also is a one-person operation. HLS News Director Michael J. Chmura said that the nature of legal research and publication is such that he does not issue press releases on new faculty work, as there is almost never general public or media interest...
...long as they keep their sex lives private. Yet the number of soldiers discharged for being gay has grown steadily since the policy began, from 156 in 1993 to 312 last year. Antigay harassment, too, is on the rise in the military's ranks, according to the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a pro-gay group that tracks such incidents. In fact, the allegations surrounding Winchell's life and death suggest that the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy, far from being a neat compromise between barring gays and openly accepting them, is being carried out in a way that...

And early this year it looked as if the curse might strike again: as Mann neared completion of a new work, Bachelor No. 2, Geffen merged with Interscope Records, whose executives ordered her back into the studio to come up with...
...Miami. The same day, Florida relatives filed a claim for political asylum on the boy's behalf, to prevent him from returning home to his natural father, with whom he remains close. While the U.S. has urged Elian's father to make a formal claim with immigration authorities, legal challenges by the boy's relatives - backed by Cuban exile organizations - are likely to delay his early return. In what may be a reflection of the ironic symbiosis across the Florida Straits, it's been a tremendous propaganda boost both to Castro and the right-wing exiles in Miami. While most...
