Chicago physicist will try to clone human

CHICAGO (AP) -- A Chicago scientist says he is determined to begin
work on cloning a human being despite widespread opposition to
using newly developed techniques on humans.

''Richard is a brilliant man,'' Harrith Hasson, chairman of obstetrics and
gynecology at the University of Chicago's Weiss Memorial Hospital,
told the Post. ''He is a little crazy, but we all have to be a little crazy to
get to that level. And if anyone can make (human cloning) happen, it
would be someone like Richard Seed.''

Good Scandal: Inquiry begun on IRS audit of Paula Jones

New York Times

LONG BEACH, Calif. -- Lawyers for Paula Jones said on Tuesday
night that investigators from the Office of the Inspector General of the
Treasury Department had begun an inquiry into the circumstances of
an Internal Revenue Service audit of Ms. Jones and her husband,
Stephen.

At an unusual late-evening news conference at a hotel here, at which
Ms. Jones appeared but did not speak, the lawyers said the Joneses had
received notice of the audit just days after the lawyers who had been
representing her in her sexual harassment suit against President Clinton
resigned last fall.

RAS users like reliability

By Kristina B. Sullivan, PC Week Labs
01.05.98

Corporations of all sizes are looking for the same
things: Secure connections and manageability in remote
access servers

Although companies use remote access
servers in vastly different ways, one issue
remains constant: reliability. Whether it's an
ISP using a RAS with thousands of ports or a
small business saving money on telephone
lines by concentrating modem usage, a
product's ability to securely connect users to
the network is of utmost importance.

One drawback to the 3Com RAS is that software upgrades must be done
separately to each modem shelf, something that 3Com has promised to
change.

"We have 137 modem shelves, so upgrades are cumbersome. We hear
that 3Com is developing a server that will automatically upgrade all the
shelves in the network with the press of a key," McPhail said.
