Stutes has tried to ensure his patients' safety -- as well as his own -- by setting the clinic parking lot well back from the street, where it is surrounded by buildings. Video cameras monitor the perimeter of the property, and "if anyone crosses it, I consider them an assassin and I get the police in here in one hot second," he says...
...Molnar, president of Midwest Business Systems, a Southfield, Michigan, computer outlet, had just brought home a top-of-the-line IBM clone -- one of those multimedia wonders that come preloaded with dozens of software titles and bedecked with a CD-ROM drive, stereo speakers and a way-too-big monitor.

...Guantanamo, however, there is an alternative to rebellion, and that is escape. Seven-foot-high rolls of barbed wire encircle the refugees. Dozens of military policemen monitor their every move, and land mines surround the base. But on average of twice a week, someone wakes up feeling skittish and bolts. According to military officials, 357 refugees, tired of languishing in the dusty, insect-ridden camp, have fled back home. Most of those who attempt to escape have already made official arrangements to be repatriated. The Cuban government has been accepting only 25 people a week...
