...fried chicken is laced with a chemical that sterilizes black men and that aids was produced by government scientists to exterminate blacks and gays. But because the allegations in "Dark Alliance" were published by a respected, white-owned newspaper, they have credibility that the other tales lacked. As Joe Madison, a Washington talk-radio host who has devoted his program to "Dark Alliance" for the past month, explains, "We've always speculated about this, but now we've got proof...
...breed. His Cajun Man, Opera Man and the rest were not varied characters; they were expressions of one capacious ego. The issue for him was not selling out but finding a buyer. And Hollywood, ever desperate for performers with male-teen appeal, bought. Sandler's first two films, Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore, were crude and slouchy, but they returned enough money on modest investments to turn Sandler into the next worst thing to a movie star.

Yet even the N.J.E.A, says Lynne Strickland, director of the Garden State Coalition, a lobbying group for 118 suburban school districts, is making some "midcourse corrections" and now supports charter schools...
...going to 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...
