...files," says Jack Williams, a managing partner at the law firm Thacher, Proffitt & Wood, which lost its offices on floors 38 to 40 at 2 World Trade Center. New scanning technology could mitigate those losses in the future: the latest optical-character-reading scanners, produced by Hewlett-Packard and Canon, can create digital archives of documents, enabling them to be accessed as CD-ROMs. "We've purchased additional scanners since the attacks, and we'll probably use more of them," says Williams...
...vocals, the tight guitar riffs of Albert Hammond Jr. and Nick Valensi, the bouncy bass of Nikolai Fraiture and the aggressive drumming of Fabrizio Moretti.

"Catholic doctrine says once you?re a priest, you?re always a priest," she says. "Once you?re ordained, you never stop being a priest. It?s something no one ever tells priests once they?ve decided to get married." Her conviction is based on a reading of Canon 290: "Sacred ordination once validly received never becomes invalid. A cleric, however, loses the clerical state." In other words, Haggett believes a priest who marries may no longer...
