...bedfellows who beat a path to his door: a Boston software entrepreneur, a Swedish student, a deputy state attorney general, the nation's largest Internet service provider, a whole passel of antivirus experts and the FBI. What these sleuths found, and where they found it, may become a blueprint for nabbing future digital delinquents...
...Turing's seminal paper, "On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem," appeared in Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society. Turing's thoughts were recognized by the few readers capable of understanding them as theoretically interesting, even provocative. But no one recognized that Turing's machine provided a blueprint for what would eventually become the electronic digital computer...
...something good could still come out of Rambouillet. The 17-day negotiating marathon concluded in an embarrassing mess: U.S. officials pleading in the last seven minutes before the final, final, final deadline for any concession that might keep the peace process alive.

What Belgrade got was a delicious reprieve from American dictates and the missiles that NATO had threatened to launch if Serb strongman...
...what the evidence. Daschle buried the idea, but not before Byrd took to the well of the Senate to accuse the White House of jury tampering.

For all their gritty romantic lore, the days of battleships and cruisers slugging it out as submarines stealthily lurked below the surface have gone the way of Admiral Chester Nimitz. But many in the American submarine community continue to believe--or at least to argue--that a massive undersea force is still an essential part of American security...
