The impact of the Clinton administration's export promotion plan on U.S. exports of computers and high-technology equipment
Article Abstract:
The Commerce Dept's plan to promote US exports and eliminate many of the domestic export controls which contribute to the US's export imbalance has been well received. Most of the Dept's requests for export licenses were in the area of electronics, computers, telecommunications, and other high technology products, and these products were most hindered by restrictions established during the Cold War. Since the plan's implementation after Sep 29, 1993, almost all export controls have been removed for such products.

Buy design; satisfying a law firm's desire for a rock-solid image and a worker's need for ergonomic and high-tech equipment is easier than it looks
Article Abstract:
Law firms' preference for traditional decor is giving way to technological demands. Besides technology, stricter laws on contemporary industrial injuries such as repetitive stress disorder is forcing law firms to spend money on ergonomic design. Mobility is another major trend in law office furniture, since most of the space being developed in law firms is outside lawyers' offices. Team projects, for instance, require movable arrangements, just one example of the need to reconfigure space for different projects.

No case for Clinton's impeachment
Article Abstract:
Pres Bill Clinton's alleged sexual dalliance with Monica Lewinsky during her White House internship and his urging her to lie about it do not warrant impeachment. The framers of the Constitution intended impeachment only for actions related obviously to the powers and duties of a public office and which harmed the public interest substantially. The behavior alleged during the Lewinsky episode does not rise to the level of impeachable offense.
