...archetype will doubtless persist for a while elsewhere, but alas, he will soon be replaced by a transient imitation in one of his strongholds, New York City. The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York-the first in the U.S. formally to do so-announced this month that pastors will henceforth serve for fixed terms of six years, and that none can serve more than two terms in the same parish. Progressives hailed the change, noting that it would allow younger priests to move up more quickly to pastoral positions and give older pastors an honorable excuse for moving...

Several observers have recently expressed concern that the charges against Weinrub may have already had a chilling effect on student protest...
...many ads offering dildos and other sex paraphernalia, and classified ads soliciting participants in sex acts that clearly violate New York's penal law. So Screw did away with dildo display ads and printed a notice to all of the would-be users of its classified columns that henceforth it "can no longer accept personal ads which solicit persons to break the law." But retreat hardly meant repentance. "We will still accept personal ads," the notice went on, "but they must be phrased in such a way as not to compromise the integrity of Screw or the integrity...
