...ongoing TIME investigation has turned up several tactics insurgents use to evade detection and get past the security arrangements. Most of the tactics are designed to exploit the ineptitude of Iraqi security forces - the 30,000 soldiers and 21,000 police who are meant to support U.S. troops. Lacking in training, equipment and motivation, the Iraqis are the soft underbelly of the surge. A U.S. military internal assessment of the surge in late May showed that they are often unable to perform the simplest tasks, like manning checkpoints.

Each species makes toxins that can either kill other species or arrest their growth, and existing antibiotics are modified versions of these natural defenses. But that is just the kind of biological arms race that microbes and other living things excel at adapting to. So researchers working on the next generation of antibiotics are taking advantage of new knowledge about bacterial genetics and a better understanding of the resistance process to stay one step ahead...
...Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and series newcomer Ellen Barkin-in her first film role in quite some time and, in case you forgot, kind of a live wire-to discuss politics, Al Pacino, the Pitt-Jolie paparazzi juggernaut, and their favorite leading men. And in Barkin's case, to exploit every possible opportunity for innuendo...
