In Limbo on Assisted Death Doctor Commentary
Dr. Robert Brody argues the Supreme Court ruling keeps assisted death by own action in limbo, urging local action and a Bay Area ethics guideline. He notes privacy, ethics debates, and a patchwork of state laws as doctors proceed cautiously while guardianship and consent processes evolve.

Lawmakers welcome budget and tax deal in Congress
Bipartisan approval marked the budget tax agreement as President Clinton and leaders touted a plan to balance the deficit by 2002. It reshapes Medicare, expands child health coverage, targets tax breaks for families students and investors, with opposition from some liberals and tobacco tax critics. House Speaker Gingrich called it a bipartisan victory as final passage eyed before a monthlong recess.

Budget deal reshapes taxes for families and home buyers
The budget pact offers tax breaks for families and home buyers, including a $500 child tax credit, up to $1,500 education credit, and capital gains relief. It also slows hospital and doctor payments, with Medicare changes nudging elderly toward HMOs and higher cigarette levies funding health coverage for uninsured kids.
