...Ronald George declared that from now on, any laws that discriminate against gays in California are presumptively unconstitutional and will be subject to "strict-scrutiny" analysis by the courts - a burden that is reserved in every other state for cases involving discrimination against religion or immutable characteristics such as race. By extending it to homosexuals, the California court made clear in a way that no other state court has that gays are deserving of fundamental protections...
...Boiled down to its essentials, F&F is four pretty swell auto-race video games - on a highway, across city streets, through a mountain tunnel, then in an all-terrain chase with a tunnel reprise - encased in the bloated carcass of a script by Chris Morgan that must have been researched in the Archive of Movie Clichés.

...first race has Dom tooling down a circuitous highway while Letty hangs by a strap on the back of a huge semi speeding just in front of him.

But the story doesn't end with his premature death in 1965, at 49. By the late...
...role of resident tutors in academic and social life. The report notes that tutors are often responsible for heavy workloads and recommends that tutors recruit upperclassmen to “augment the programmatic roles of Specialty Tutors,” such as those of the sexuality and race relations liaisons. Still on the menu for house renewal is the exploration of late-night dining options, including the possibility of remodeled student grilles and an unspecified “new proposal” for late-night eating spaces. Finally, the report addresses some of the concrete architectural plans that...
