Activity on the current front, some 500 km of dense jungle between Kinshasa and the rebel-held territory to the east, remains mostly a mystery to journalists, who have had to depend on dubious reports from the Zairian government...
...Democrats' war on Gingrich took a dubious turn last week when they rolled out a new weapon: electronic eavesdropping. First, the history: on Dec. 21, Gingrich gave the House ethics committee a statement admitting he had given it wrong information--inadvertently, he said.

Our company executes or clears approximately 3 million trades per year, as you noted...
...stage is set for what could be the biggest environmental battle of the decade. More than 500 business and local-government groups are fiercely lobbying against the rules, arguing that they would cost billions, are based on dubious research, and would require Americans to change the way they do everything from generating electricity to barbecuing steaks. Opponents are likely to get a sympathetic reception in Congress, which last year gave itself the power to veto such rules...
