Darcy Burner knew that??prospective Democratic candidates sometimes left in tears after meeting Representative Rahm Emanuel of Chicago, who heads the party's efforts to recapture the House and was the one-man screening committee for recruits. Burner, an alumna of Harvard and Microsoft, didn't cry. But she found the wiry former Clinton Administration official as ruthless as any corporate chieftain she had known, as he went down a checklist of questions, including one at the top he had written to himself: Is she worth the investment of my time and the committee's money...
Your report provided insights that??can improve the quality of life for those affected by autism. The behavior-modification techniques used in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) lure parents into believing that their children can be "fixed," or at least trained to act appropriately. In my experience, ABA works at finding solutions without necessarily providing an understanding of the cause of the problems. The Floortime method is a long-term solution that teaches children how to communicate and helps them repair problems at the foundation. My child with autism has had experience with both methods.

Whiplash was just the first agony that??Kevin Miller, 45, suffered in a car accident last July. The second was sticker shock. The self-employed and uninsured chiropractor from Eunice, La., learned that it would cost $90,000 to get the herniated disk in his neck repaired.

There a U.S.-trained surgeon fixed Miller...
...night that??would make David Bernal famous, although he didn't know it at the time. He was 21 and a senior at California State University at Long Beach, majoring in art and illustration and doing a little break dancing on the side. On the night in question he had been hired to perform at a Korean-American talent show in Los Angeles. There's a grainy amateur video of the event in which you can see him mumble his name into the microphone and then do his thing for about...
Some have said that??Opus' true secret is its clout in international politics. Poland's new conservative regime includes an Opus minister and several Opus officials, according to one of the group's Warsaw directors; membership there is rumored to be a political stepping-stone. In Peru, Juan Luis Cardinal Cipriani, the church's first openly Opus Dei Cardinal, was seen as having sanctioned antiterrorist excesses by the regime of former President Alberto Fujimori; he scoffed at the accusations, writing that most human-rights groups were "fronts for Marxist and Maoist political movements...
