...Maybe the color of the Nobel Prize medal should be changed from gold to red, white and blue. U.S. researchers swept the science awards for the first time since 1983. But the joy came with a warning from many in the U.S. scientific community: the kind of basic research that won Nobels is no longer getting adequate funding.

Williams and her cousin, Vickie Anderson, were here for the last Saints game to be played in the dome, on August 26, 2005, just three days before the hurricane struck the Gulf Coast; now they were waiting in a long line outside the stadium and wondering how many of the other season ticket subscribers they...
