...rickety wooden bridge to view the damage: just 300 yds. away on Sinbad Island, bright orange flames and thick black smoke curled from a coastal dredging vessel that had been nearly cut in half by a direct hit. Fire engines raced to the scene and sprayed water and foam to prevent the flames from spreading to nearby military craft...
...hits. But no deafening, jolting crash occurs. On impact, the two cars swing away easily, for they are on casters and covered with polyurethane foam pads. The terrorist threat was not for real, but still there is genuine sweat on the driver's palms. This is part of the final exam given at the BSR Counter-Terrorist Driving School. It is the culmination of a four-day course held at Summit Point, W. Va., about 80 miles west of Washington. Instructor Bill Scott, 42, a Yale Ph.D. in geology and an ex-champion Formula Super Vee race-car driver...

A few dynamite charges shake the hull free of the bottom and then, glug, glug, glug, here she comes, surging to the surface where she sits, muddy and wet but otherwise unharmed...
...create an incredibly safe, trusting environment. At home I use an eight foot by ten foot box with four inches of foam and soft music playing through speakers," he says. "The main question is, are you really doing exactly what you want to be doing every moment of your life? The sessions move through emotions, diet, wardrobe, home environment--you pick up every single thing in the house and ask 'Do I have a totally alive relation to you?'--job environment, and finally relationships. We don't replace old dogma with new dogma, we don't tell them...
