...homefront remains on alert, but in a leisurely, one-eye-open kind of way. Police at the Pentagon scrape the air for signs of radiation or chemical attack, track the wind direction to guide escaping employees. But 9/11 Commission chairs Tom Kean and Lee Hamilton used the anniversary to remind people that security remains a shield with holes. Most air cargo is still not screened, the high-tech bomb detectors are indefinitely delayed, and Congress demands tighter standards for drivers' licenses but won't fund them. The broadcast industry has until 2009 to turn over the spectrum that rescuers need...
...what is the right way, when it comes to hair, to honor women's progress? Conversations with women from Camden, Maine, to Decatur, Ga., and from Flagstaff, Ariz., to Portland, Ore., expose a raw nerve.

Luckily for Giuliani and Romney, most Republicans don't associate them with the surge, as they do John McCain. Most either don't know what the GOP front runners think or think they agree with them and support a Baker-Hamilton-style drawdown. In a July Hotline poll, only 17% of Republicans knew that Giuliani opposes any troop withdrawal from Iraq, and only 12% knew that Romney did. For both men, that's good news. They don't want to be identified with a policy that's unpopular even among Republicans, let alone the rest of America. But they...
...some argue that this organization has just simply hijacked the old SDS name. "SDS in the 1960s was real; SDS in 2007 is a fraud," says Maurice Isserman, a professor of history at Hamilton College and a former SDSer at Reed College...
