	'Winter' of his discontent - The Boston Globe
		Indeed, in ''Winter Passing," Rapp is reveling in the mire.
		He's working as a creative consultant for Showtime's ''The L Word"; his first adult novel, ''The Year of Endless Sorrows," should be released in the coming year; and he's editing his next feature film, ''Blackbird," based on his play about a tragic love affair between a hepatitis-infected young woman and a Gulf War veteran.
		While ''Blackbird" features a cast made up mostly of New York theater actors, for ''Winter Passing" Rapp was able to lure major box office draws like multiple Oscar nominee Harris, beloved funny man Ferrell, and rising star Deschanel, who says that it was Rapp's way with words that attracted her to the project.

	Ghana without Nkrumah - The Winter Of Discontent
		On the other hand, credible evidence of systematic torture has yet to be produced, and though the old regime sentenced several people to death for participating in one of the assassination plots, no one in Ghana appears to have been executed for a political crime.
		The Army is said to have chafed at Nkrumah's non-military decision to ask the USSR to train and equip one part of its forces, and Britain and the Commonwealth the other part.
		Behind the facade, however, the strikers had revealed not only a growing discontent with the government's austerity measures (which had indeed been anticipated), but also the extent lo which the trade union leaders were acting as tools for the CPP and the state.

	Another winter of discontent for Mid-South farmers?
		Some Mid-South farmers are facing their second winter of discontent because of the actions of a senator who is slated to become the most powerful member of the upper chamber when the new Congress convenes in January.
		He spent last year’s winter recess defending himself from criticism that he had lost touch with the farm community after Republicans blocked a pre-Christmas effort to pass a new farm bill that included a disaster assistance amendment.
		When you add the fact that some farm organization leaders were never that hot on disaster assistance legislation – because they feared that the costs eventually would be born by the farm bill – you can see why the winter of 2002-03 might not be as unpleasant for the majority-leader-to-be as the last one.
