...Culhane and HUD will win this argument for now. A bill supported by Stoops and other advocates that would broaden the federal definition of homelessness is stuck in committee in the House this week and is unlikely, Stoops says, to emerge intact...
...intensity exercise, akin to "walking when you're late for a meeting," he says, or whether it was preferable to engage in shorter bursts of more vigorous-intensity activity, "like, when you're late for the bus, chasing it down." The problem was that not enough of the women stuck with their assigned exercise categories for the researchers to gather enough meaningful data. Within a few months, most of the participants had resorted to exercising as much as they chose to. That left researchers with a slightly different data set than they had planned for, but they were still able...
...largest communications deal in American history might never have come to pass last week if Bell Atlantic chairman Raymond Smith and Tele-Communications Inc. president and chief executive officer John Malone had not got stuck on a boat off the coast of Maine. The merger talks were going nowhere that August afternoon when the two men decided to head back to shore, only to find that the anchor of Malone's 70-ft. sailboat had snagged an underwater power line. While divers spent two hours cutting the boat free, Smith and Malone had little choice but to continue trying...

Its last entry is a New Year's Eve letter from an Army captain to his mother, composed as he awaited another Chinese midnight attack near Seoul. ''We're kind of stuck out on a limb here,'' he writes.

Robert Reich, a political economist at Harvard and author of The Next American Frontier, is an outspoken critic of this development. Says he: ''If American workers get stuck assembling and distributing sophisticated gadgetry from Japan and elsewhere, they are not building world-class skills.'' The ultimate price for industrial obsolescence is now being paid in Homestead, Pa. (pop. 4,500). In 1892, on the banks of the Monongahela River, striking steelworkers fought Pinkerton detectives who had been hired...
