...reason to dispense quietly with Hale's case, because his alleged offenses made a mockery of the sensitive new job he had been given. The 52-year-old Hale was allowed to pack it up just four months after he became the Army's deputy inspector general. In that post, he oversaw all Army probes into personnel misconduct and was expected to help eradicate sexual abuse in the Army's ranks. "There are two systems of justice in the military, and those who practice in the military justice system are deluding themselves if they say otherwise," says Charles Gittins...
...Colorado Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell isn't waiting for studies. Denouncing the jumping mouse as a "killer" of jobs and economic growth, he says the Federal Government should be tossing animals and plants off the endangered list rather than putting them on. But the public feels otherwise. A Denver Post poll in March showed that 81% support protecting the little mouse that's seldom seen. "Their habitat is shrinking fast," warns Boulder mammalogist Carron Meaney. "We might find the mouse in 100 places now, but in 10 years 95 of those will be under concrete...
...insult his hair and poke fun at his syrupy songs, but unless you want bellyaching from MICHAEL BOLTON, don't cast aspersions on his charity. The New York Post reported that the Michael Bolton Foundation, which purports to help women and children in distress, in 1995 gave away only 15% of the money it raised. The 1996 figures were missing. Bolton, who said the allegations made him "sick to [his] stomach," immediately hired a crew of suits, including an emergency spin doctor, to clear things up. Meanwhile, the charity announced that expenses were high in 1995 because of fund-raising...
Naturally, RUPERT MURDOCH gave the scoop that his marriage was on the rocks to Liz Smith of his very own New York Post, which politely said the Australian-born tycoon and ANNA, his wife of nearly 31 years, were trying to work it out. Somewhat less naturally, he broke it to most of his family at about the same time. How do the media cover the split of a guy who buys ink by the tankerful? Delicately. In Australia, the big tabloids, which are Murdoch-owned, ran teensy items on inside pages. In Britain, Murdoch's Sun, for whom this...
...Beatle Paul; after battling breast cancer; in Tucson, Ariz. Their enduring union was the rule-proving exception to short-lived celebrity marriages, with the devoted couple spending just one voluntary night apart in their 29 years together. Linda became Paul's muse (the lovely, long-haired lady of his post-Beatles love ballads) and his sometime singing partner in the soft-rock group Wings. Her passions ranged far beyond the musical: she continued to take pictures, and she became a tireless champion of animal rights as well as vegetarianism...
