...bombers have already seen action, until you consider the nearly 3,000 fully armed support G.I.s who follow those weapons everywhere they go. Even as Clinton, his aides and his allies insisted that they were not contemplating a ground war, the President was in the process of moving soldiers onto Balkan soil...
Leaner's plaintive cry was heard by a volunteer researcher, who told Leaner about the Social Security Death Index. That was the breakthrough Leaner needed, allowing her to move out onto the Internet and into libraries, gathering snippets about her heritage. Now, thanks to scores of websites and chat groups, she has traced her great-great-grandparents back to Mississippi, found the cemetery in Hines County where they are buried, obtained a copy of their 1874 marriage license--along with the World War I draft card of a great-grandfather--and in the process, discovered the thrill of cyberrooting...

I don't want to be thought of as standing on the Truth Pedestal shouting commandments." He considers. "I'd rather be thought...
...Moon. Using the choreography of Babil Gandara, the principal choreographer of the South Texas Dance Theater, Harvard dancers turned the Loeb Mainstage into a swirling, swarming arena of motion and light. Clad in bodysuits of various neon and tie-dyed colors, the dancers marched in perfect unison onto the stage in the opening number, "Speak to Me," like drones from a futuristic world where money clangs and clammers in everyone's gigantic communal ear. The safety of conformity and seduction of rebellion, themes prominent in Pink Floyd's music, were recreated in stark and surprising ways through the choreography...
