...sadly for the Harrimans (and their lawyers), Joyce’s business trip is canceled before she gets to the Newark airport, and Marshall, late for work, isn’t at his office when the second plane hits. No armistice follows the Harrimans’ pair of close calls. If anything, Joyce and Marshall feel more trapped by their loveless marriage post-9/11 than...

...worse time. The G.O.P. is facing the prospect of losing its 12-year majority in the House, and other G.O.P. incumbents in the state, such as Representative Clay Shaw, are already fighting intensely close races.

...fight terrorism, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is courting strange bedfellows near you. The DHS will grant $200,000 to Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital to fund research on factors that cause airport security personnel to overlook dangerous items that appear on the scanner screen. This grant is a supplement to a $460,000 grant awarded earlier this month to the hospital’s Visual Attention Lab, headed by Jeremy M. Wolfe, a professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School. The hospital has been working with DHS’s Transportation Security...
