...reality. How do I know this? Because of how he characterizes my own views on Israel. Everything he says about my views is demonstrably false. He accuses me of defending "year-long detainment without trial," and "no due process" in Israel. If Larew had simply bothered to read the published record, he would have seen that I have been opposed to administrative detention without due process for nearly 20 years. I have written against the practice, lectured against it in Israel as recently as last year and helped to restrict the practice in Israel...
...developer whose fondest wish is to run away with Sea Shepherd, a Greenpeace splinter group, and ram whale ships? Perhaps that he is a 36-year-old Massachusetts- born Sikh of French-Canadian extraction, in a turban and a Ralph Lauren polo shirt? Or that he read about this 102-acre property one Sunday in 1986 and bought it on a hunch three days later for $17.25 million, outbidding a group of Alaskan Indians bearing federal pollution-compensation credits?

But not to Trish Arredondo, the director of an Indiana Planned Parenthood affiliate. One day, after a speech at a fund raiser in Munster, Ind., Wattleton stretched out her legs in the back of a white limousine cruising along Route 20 toward Chicago. Arredondo reached for Wattleton's note pad and stared at it intently. Arredondo is a family-planning specialist by training, a graphologist by avocation. Without taking her eyes off Wattleton's handwriting, she began to speak. You're idealistic...
...body is stiff and severely contracted, her knees and arms drawn into a fetal position, her fingers dug into her wrists. Some nurses report that Cruzan can turn toward persons who speak to her and that she has cried on several occasions, once when a valentine card was read to her. But doctors say she is oblivious to the environment except for reflexive responses to sound and painful stimuli. "We have literally cried over Nancy's body, and we've never seen anything," says her anguished father Joe Cruzan. "Sometimes you swear she is looking right at you, but then...
