...Million Moms are blatantly using motherhood to sell their message. The march will feature a stroller parade and a family tent, so parents have a place to take young children when they get antsy during the speeches. Ann Stevens, a mother of three from Springfield, Va., says, "I told my husband that this year, instead of breakfast in bed, I want to do this for Mother's Day. I have children, and I want them to be around years from...
...feds had other reasons to go in fully loaded. INS agents, who spent a week planning the raid, had observed from 10 to 30 self-appointed bodyguards who mixed with the crowd outside at any given time.

Last summer, before his lawyers made him stop talking to reporters on the record, Dale joked with one that he was happy not to have to wear the uniform, "a cotton-poly blend." He lives in lower Manhattan and works as ad director of POZ, a magazine about...
...Week at Harvard. Sounds funny, doesn't it? Like Fresh Vegetables Month at Charlie's Kitchen or Bill Bradley holding a Week Without Scowling. I'm a Methodist, born and raised on Sundays at church, but even for me the name "Jesus Week," brings up stereotypes: images of a tent revival in the Yard, with people faith-healing pit kids ("Ye art afflicted by Satan!"
