...Supreme Court may have handed down a hint of its own attitude in last month's Miranda v. Arizona decision, which affirmed the rights to silence and to counsel as soon as a person is "deprived of his freedom of action in any way." On the other hand, defenders of stop-and-frisk laws see the court leaning their "reasonable" way because it declared in 1963 (Ker v. California): "The states are not precluded from developing workable rules to meet the practical demands of effective criminal investigation and law enforcement in the states, provided that those rules...
Common law imposes on every person a duty to exercise "ordinary care" for his or her own safety.

Ultimately, Alva follows her lover-man to the Big City where she tries both streetwalking and light housekeeping with Redford before fleeing into a rainstorm one wretched night to catch a fatal...
...orange and green collection of huge aluminum jackstraws seemingly flung into the air over two chunks of I beam. There is no pedestal, no impressive volume filled with bronze-and no relation to human scale. "I wanted to make sculpture that is as meaningful in a room as a person," says Caro. So he shunned anatomically suggestive totems as "people substitutes" and made sculpture that substitutes things for people...
