In Montana, the Next Arctic Refuge Debate
Modern conservationists call this wild country "the American Serengeti." But unlike the African Serengeti, Montana's Rocky Mountain Front, a 100-mile stretch of glacier-sculpted peaks and valleys held by the US Forest Service and the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM), has only temporary protection against oil and gas drilling. The Bush administration has targeted the Rocky Mountain Front, along with the ANWR, for oil and gas exploration. Energy firms want to extract gas through existing and new leases on BLM and US Forest lands. If approved, drilling could begin by 2005.

Living Wisely in the Midst of the Absurd
"In the past decades, I have often been annoyed that Europeans, particularly intellectuals, have said that we Latin Americans are too optimistic.. We started from the hope: If Nicaragua won, El Salvador will win.. The horizon was clear and open.. The consequence of the globalization of the free market reduce us to silence. Still I will not surrender to pessimism since that means dying."

Democracy Or The Lieberman Effect, The Choice Is Ours
All is not right in the valley. That's right, all is not right in the valley of democracy. (In theory, that is.) That would be the assertion Democratic nomination presidential candidate Senator Joe Lieberman is 'unintentionally' conveying as he tries to distinguish his message from the growing 'anti-occupation' sentiment which grows amongst the Democratic primary faithful as mid-west Republican angst rises with President Bush's domestic farm policies.

More Mentally Ill in Prison Than in Hospitals
This a chilling report and sadly it only addresses one aspect of this issue.
>The Scope of this Report
We are keenly aware of the many related problems that we have excluded from this report. Our inquiry is limited to adults, although a high percentage of youth in the juvenile justice system are also mentally ill. We concentrate on mental illness, while recognizing that prisoners who are developmentally disabled or suffer from organic brain damage also face unique and important problems. And our inquiry is limited to prisons, although we acknowledge as all who are familiar with jails must that jails are equally, if not more, overwhelmed by mentally ill prisoners for whom they are ill-equipped to care.<

Clear Channel DJs Encourage Drivers To Harass Bicyclists
Bicyclists are demanding that the nation's largest radio group be punished because disc jockeys at three stations made on-air comments they say encouraged drivers to throw bottles at bike riders or hit them with open car doors. Morning show hosts at Clear Channel Communications stations in Cleveland, Houston and Raleigh, N.C., also suggested motorists blast horns at cyclists, and speed past them and slam on their brakes in front of them.
"DJs encouraging the masses to hurt people in any form is insipid, and should not go unpunished," said Edwin D. Reeves, 30, a cyclist and ceramic engineer in St. Louis.
