[this bounced because it had a bad word in line 3 of the text] Date: Wed, 30 Jun 1999 08:02:32 +0100 From: Chris Burford <cburford at gn.apc.org> Subject: Ocalan's death sentence There has been surprisingly little comment or reports of mobilisation against Ocalan's trial. As far as I can see quickly scanning the lists I s*bscribe to, there has been no report on his death sentence. I suggest this is the result of the leftist error many good people have fallen into over Kosovo. Just because ...

38463 "sunshine of opportunity" -- rank: 1000
[from an article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal on the low US savings rate] Ignorance and Glamour The reasons Americans don't save more are complex, ranging from lack of knowledge about the financial vehicles and their benefits, to a popular culture that glamorizes consumption.

She contributes on ...

[Thanks to Kirsten Nielsen; from the Wall Street Journal] USE OF PRISONERS for productive work simmers as an issue for unions.

The AFL-CIO backs the idea of inmates working but wants it done "carefully." Low-wage or unpaid "prison inmates are just one more group being added t ...
