...bill is both explicit and vague; that is, it calls for a ban on soft money and leaves the rest to judicial interpretation. And whether or not money is removed as the "dominant force," from campaigns, as the bill's co-sponsor Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) enthusiastically wrote in 1995, will remain to be seen...
...consultant who served as Haley Barbour's top aide when Barbour ran the Republican National Committee. Two other veterans of Barbour's successful R.N.C. operation, ED GILLESPIE and CURT ANDERSON, the former R.N.C. field director, are onboard, as are top G.O.P. pollster ED GOEAS and consultants STUART STEVENS and RUSS SCHRIEFER. Kasich's advisers have been busy pushing him to broaden his range beyond fiscal policy into the fertile Republican terrain of social-values issues. And one more image point: bangs went out with Bobby Kennedy...
...Wall in the October 1992 issue of Harper's, forms the prologue for Underworld. It is a tour de force, an astonishing set piece that captures the sweep and emotions of those tumultuous few hours in the Polo Grounds as experienced by, among many others, the radio announcer Russ Hodges ("The Giants win the pennant!"), attendant celebrities Frank Sinatra, Jackie Gleason, Toots Shor and J.

And Ed Wood, who couldn't get arrested when he was alive--all right, as an alcoholic transvestite, he could get arrested, but nobody in Hollywood paid attention to his goofily inept...
Comets have long been associated with war, upheaval and disaster, and as the light from Hale-Bopp faded in the California sky early last Tuesday, U.S. Army Major Russ Oaks got a taste of all three. Oaks was participating in one of the Pentagon's most ambitious and elaborate war games ever, a laser-gun battle pitting a 2,000-soldier "experimental force" against the toughest men in the war-game business, Fort Irwin's vaunted 2,000-man "opposing force." OPFOR had the home-turf advantage, with a 90% win record in this 20-sq.-mi. stretch...
