...taking no chances. Chinese crews wearing masks and medical suits now walk through all international airplanes upon arrival, testing passengers' temperatures with pistol-grip thermometers. When one student from St. Mary's School in Medford, Ore., tested positive on a trip to China in mid-July, 65 fellow pupils and seven chaperones were isolated in a Beijing hotel...

During normal years, the scientists concoct the recipe that...
Chutzpah is the term that comes to mind when reading Israel Katz's response to President Obama's efforts to solve the West Bank--settlement issue. Israel accepted $2.4 billion in aid last year from U.S. taxpayers, yet the Katz family and fellow settlers tell us to "butt out."
