...tried to investigate the payment was stymied by legal objections from Ruff and Carey. There have been allegations that the money was for work Palladino did for Clinton in his 1992 campaign to keep stories of sexual misconduct from becoming public, or that the money was used to suppress Teamster dissidents. Ruff has denied the allegations as "false and nonsensical." (Calls to McAuliffe's attorney were not returned.) The proposed lawsuit will contend that government monitors failed to do their job overseeing the Carey administration and, "as a result," says a source close to the suit, "more than $20 million...
Chances are you've had plenty of dealings with those irksome little enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 and cyclooxygenase 2, better known as cox-1 and cox-2.

In 1926, in fact, the Reichstag voted for a censorship program that would suppress Schmutz and the alien, commercial cosmopolitanism that are so prevalent in Weimar visual culture...
...years as the undisputed ruler of Indonesia, Suharto did not suppress memory as much as wield it like a weapon. His "New Order," he declared, had brought stability to an archipelago that was less a nation than a factory for political chaos, full of secessionists, radical Muslims, communists and renegade soldiers fomenting catastrophe. But in a swirl of the very disorder he claimed to have dispelled, Suharto was forced last May to relinquish power to a trusted disciple, B.J. Habibie.
