4) This week's summary of under-reported news
Compiled by Bob Nixon

In February, the Bolivian Supreme Court indicted the former president Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada, and pushed for his extradition from the U.S. on murder and other charges related to what is known in Bolivia as "Black October" -- but Washington has ignored the extradition request.
Gay rights groups are gearing up opposition to the nomination of Dr. James W. Holsinger as U.S. surgeon general, who claimed same-sex relationships were not natural and could lead to public health problems.
