...figures and atmosphere to the space. They think this wash is being "indiscriminately" swabbed off along with the dirt. Beck claims that Colalucci and his team, who have done nothing but study the Sistine for the past eight years, have still not studied it enough; and that the cleaning agent, AB-57, though used for cleaning fresco and stone since the early 1970s, is still insufficiently tested. The antis also decry the new look of the frescoes as "thinly, monotonously mannerist," flat and misleadingly "modern" in color...

Within a couple of weeks, FBI agents asked him to stop sleuthing while they got more authorization, but they still showered him with praise over the next four months as he fed them technical...
...noncorrupt officials. The problem so far has been gathering evidence against the crooked players, but now the DEA has given special-ops training to a cadre of 128 Afghan officers vetted for corruption. They will be joined by five Foreign-deployed Advisory and Support Teams (FAST) of DEA agent-advisers at a secure base with modern electronics outside Kabul. The goal is to have the units gather data from documents, computer discs, cell and satellite phones, and other data sources during raids of labs and drug caches. The evidence will then be turned over to teams of prosecutors and judges...
