...they will get there after the Sept. 2 protest. And some educators caution that keeping kids out of class, for one day or longer, could ultimately do more harm than good.

And the protest could also affect next year's funding, which Illinois pegs to the number of children in school during the three months with the highest attendance rates, with September usually being the highest...

I don't have to do porn anymore for economic reasons. However, I like to stay current. I don't want to be an ex-porn...
...rebel band in 1992? The more freeze-dried the official proceedings, the hungrier reporters get for raw meat, real conflict, which has Democratic veterans like former party chairman Don Fowler looking a little drawn. He was a die-hard South Carolina Hillary Clinton champion - "but you win, you lose, you move on." A loyal cadre of Clinton bitter-enders, Fowler says, "introduces so much uncertainty into an event like this, when it's all supposed to be apple pie and American flags...
