...plan also puts the lie to some of Bush's own campaign rhetoric about Gore's targeted cuts being social engineering. After scoffing at Democratic notions that only the "right kind of people" should be given tax cuts, Bush has given a tax cut to everybody - but those "right kind of people" are still getting a lot more than everybody else. (The plan also has special breaks for college education and charitable donations...

Jerusalem eventually stalemated the summit. Clinton called for a one-on-one with Arafat, pleading with him to consider a compromise granting Palestinians sovereignty over the Haram but giving Israelis sovereignty beneath it, where Jews believe the ruins of Solomon's temple lie. "Mr. President, I invite you to my funeral" was Arafat's reply, explaining that he would be a traitor if he agreed. "We may not be able to liberate Jerusalem," he said. "But someone will come and liberate it and raise his flag over...

What seems amazing, looking back on it, is how early, and how accurately, Stieglitz picked those works of art that lie at the core of each artist's achievement. Thus he supported for years the deeply depressive and conflicted Hartley, both morally and to some extent financially. And when you see the magnificent range of some 20 Hartleys in this show, you realize that the essence of the man is there: not only the profoundly felt abstractions of military uniforms and insignia like Portrait of a German Officer, 1914, done in mourning for his young German lover killed...

...benefits of RU-486 lie in its flexibility and privacy, but the restrictions on its distribution limit what the community can gain from the new drug. UHS's decision not to offer the pill at Holyoke Center will require women to make three unnecessary trips into Boston. Students should only have to visit another facility in the rare cases where they a follow-up surgical procedure is required, in which case their primary-care physician could accompany them...

...also taken with Out the Fire, a charming animated short depicting skeletons dancing and riding fire extinguishers through New York City. There’s something infectious about its crude drawing style and its jaunty Caribbean soundtrack. Where Monsters Lie, a light, brief tale of monsters living among us, is even more crudely drawn and only marginally interesting. Pleasureland is an uncompelling clunker of an erotic sci-fi story, following the exploits of an man who stumbles upon a video store whose adult tapes are made flesh by his VCR. The short also features yards of cable, black goop...
