Good stuff, as usual, in the latest email newsletter, "Harper's Weekly." Here's a sample:
The Middlebury Institute, a liberal
advocacy group opposing the Iraq War, and the League of
the South, which displays a Confederate battle flag on its
banner, met in Tennessee to discuss their shared goal of
secession from the Union. A white family in Florida found
three burning crosses in its back yard. An autopsy could
not reveal the identity of a baby found in a Big John's
Pickled Sausage jar and left in a Florida cane field, and
researcher Craig Venter announced that he has constructed
a synthetic chromosome out of laboratory chemicals,
creating the first artificial life form on Earth.
