...despite all the noise they have made, neither the Governor nor the Clamshellers have actually influenced the stop-and-go course of construction at the site. Surprisingly, both sides agree on the villains' identity: bungling federal bureaucracies whose errors and capriciousness have kept key issues from being resolved. Says Carl Goldstein, a spokesman for the pro-plant Atomic Industrial Forum: "It is horrendous what Seabrook shows about the regulatory process." Agrees Tony Roisman, an opposing lawyer: "You can't regulate this...
Austin Currie, 38, is the protesting Ulster parliamentarian whose initial sit-in at a County Tyrone public housing development sparked the civil rights movement. He now lives outside Dungannon in a house equipped with bulletproof glass, security locks, alarms and floodlights.

Nearly one-third of the women who have received abortions in the nation since 1973 have been non-white.

The minimum price for an abortion these days is about $150. That rock-bottom price may not seem like very much to some people, but if this is half...
