    DC City Guide Page | 1 Washington, D.C. Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States and the seat of its three branches of government, has a collection of free, public museums unparalleled in size and scope throughout the history of mankind, and the lion's share of the nation's most treasured monuments and memorials. The vistas on the National Mall between the Capitol, Washington Monument, White House, and Lincoln Memorial are famous throughout the world as icons of the world's wealthiest and most powerful nation. Beyond the Mall, D.C. has in the past two decades shed its old reputation as a city both boring and dangerous, with shopping, dining, and nightlife befitting a world-class metropolis. Travelers will find the city new, exciting, and decidedly cosmopolitan and international. Districts Virtually all of D.C.'s tourists flock to the Mall—a two-mile long, beautiful stretch of parkland that holds many of the city's monuments and Smithsonian museums—but the city itself is a vibrant metropolis that often has little to do with monuments, politics, or white, neoclassical buildings. The Smithsonian is a "can't miss," but don't trick yourself—you haven't really been to D.C. until you've been out and about the city.

This epic tome, written by Kaye, Scholer partner Pierce O'Donnell and Los Angeles Times entertainment reporter Dennis McDougal, is a complex and itemized account of how Pulitzer- prizewinning columnist Art Buchwald took on a major motion pic- ture studio and won. Fatal Subtraction is a forthright and uncommonly damning study of Hollywood and its hidden profits amidst a labyrinth of lucre, desire, and domination. Self-anointed super-lawyer O'Donnell deposes the likes of actor Eddie Murphy, director John Landis, talk-show host Arsenio Hall, and a series of other studio executives including Disney's whiz kid Jeffrey Katzenberg (who gets a spell of good old-fashioned Ronald Reagan forgetfulness).

  • University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" fo r pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections w ith a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • The Political Process
    1980-81 Institute of Politics John F.Kennedy School of Government Harvard University PROCEEDINGS Institute of Politics 1980-81 John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard University FOREWORD Here is Proceedings '81, the third edition of this annual retrospective of the Institute of Politics. It serves the function of an annual report, but it is more than that. Part One, "Readings," is a sampling of written and spoken words drawn from the many formats of Institute activity: panel discussions and speeches in our Forum, dialogue among conference participants, an essay from a faculty study group, stu­ dent writing from the Harvard Political Review, personal evalutions from a summer intern and from our resident Fellows, and so forth. They contain impassioned rhetoric from controversial figures as well as opinion and analysis from less well- known individuals. This year we even have a poem and a little humor. Taken together, the "Readings," represent a good cross-section of what happens here. Part Two, 'Programs," is a record of all the events sponsored by the Institute dur­ ing the 1980-81 academic year. This section delineates the participation of hundreds of individuals who together make the Institute the lively, interactive place that it is. Although they are not all captured on tape or on paper, their contributions make this place come alive, and this listing is a recognition of that. Thus, the annual editions of Proceedings provide an ongoing portrait of the In­ stitute of Politics. I hope you find it both informative and enjoyable.
