...diplomats and trained to infiltrate governments, are not well positioned to penetrate stateless gangs of terrorists who don't go to embassy parties. DeWine called for a larger NOC program in a report issued by Congress in July--and many ex-spooks were surprised when the CIA cleared the document for public consumption. But the agency has resisted such efforts before, arguing that NOCs are too expensive and too dangerous to expand the program by much...
Short, pudgy and quick to smile, the Milan leader has few enemies--a miraculous accomplishment in Vatican circles. A moral theologian believed to have helped pen the Pope's seminal 1995 document on bioethics, Tettamanzi has strong conservative credentials.

A moral theologian believed to have helped pen the Pope's seminal 1995 document on bioethics, Tettamanzi has strong conservative credentials. But he has also spoken out against the mistreatment of immigrants and in support of antiglobalization demonstrations. Progressive groups such as the Community of Sant'Egidio like him - yet so does the archtraditionalist Opus Dei. He can reach out to the laity...
...hire 160 people in the last two years. Part of the reason: It?s hard to find top-notch linguists who also can also qualify for a top secret security clearance. FBI linguists must be equally able to interpret a wiretap laced with street slang and to read a document containing scientific jargon. And, making matters more difficult, the FBI competes with the CIA and other parts of the intelligence community for linguists with impeccable backgrounds...
