Dining halls will also provide environmentally safe mugs and more recycled products as part of renewed environmental efforts, Berry says. Last year, 40 percent of the dining hall waste stream was converted to recycled material, he said...
...lawsuit -- followed by a civil suit by 3,800 plaintiffs -- targeted more than 200 prps (potentially responsible parties), including McDonnell Douglas, Rockwell International, Northrop Corp. and Weyerhaeuser. In the early stages of the legal battle in the mid-1980s, Riverside County lacked a courthouse that could accommodate the burgeoning stream of lawyers.

Although a number of corporate defendants have settled with plaintiffs, the site has never been cleaned up; it still contains a residue of 34 million gal. of toxic waste...

The Judiciary Committee voted 18 to 0 in favor of confirming Ruth Bader Ginsburg as a Justice of the Supreme Court. The Labor and Human Resources Committee gave a 13-to-4 endorsement to Dr. Joycelyn Elders to be Surgeon General. Louis Freeh, the nominee for fbi director, seems headed for quick approval this week...
