Harris Getting Reinforcements for Gang Unit
A bad week for the U.S. attorney's office turned into a good one for San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris. Anthony Brass, who had left the DA's office in 2002 to work for U.S. Attorney Kevin Ryan, announced Friday he is stepping down as a federal prosecutor to go after gangs for Harris. Brass will join Harris' three-person gang unit, focusing on murders and shootings. He is the first of eight new hires Harris hopes to make in the next fiscal year.Your R�sum� as a Business Tool

Arlen Specter, R-Pa., says it is time to set new precedents for the emerging global economy.Akin Gump Chips Way Into Bay Area
Akin Gump has poached a pair of partners from local Bay Area firms, bolstering its fledgling San Francisco outpost and underscoring the significance of out-of-town firms in the current lateral-partner recruiting season. Reginald Steer and Karen Kubin, longtime Bay Area litigators who practiced at Pillsbury Winthrop and Cooley Godward, respectively, announced Wednesday they were moving to Chicago-based Akin Gump.
