Haitians face harsher U.S. policy than Cubans in Florida
In Miami and Key West, eight Cuban migrants land by air and gain asylum while over 200 Haitian migrants aboard a rickety ship near downtown Miami face likely deportation. Community leaders argue a racial political double standard guiding refugee and asylum decisions amid Cuba’s Cold War ties.

FTC settles charges against psychic line operators
The Federal Trade Commission settled with Access Resource Services and Psychic Readers Network overbilling of about 1 billion dollars for three years. The firms marketed psychic readings via 900 numbers and pay per call links led by Miss Cleo, with nearly 3,000 consumer complaints. The settlement ends 900-number sales, requires refunds within 20 days, and allows continued prepaid subscriptions with reduced activity.
