...States needs a single, unified computer network that contains--at the very least--all the available information on the world's bad guys. This was the primary recommendation of the 9/11 commission. The FBI needs to know what the CIA knows about, say, the mythical terrorist Mahmoud Shimon O'Hara, and vice versa--and both agencies need to be alerted immediately if O'Hara tries to enter the country or has a phone conversation overheard...

And as scientists have learned from lab animals, the simple act of calorie restriction can have significant effects on longevity...
...Hall. These were the shows (with book and lyrics by Guy Bolton and P.G. Wodehouse) whose Held-girl-slim plots, witty rhymes and gorgeous scores created the form of the Broadway musical comedy. John McGlinn's meticulous orchestrations, and showstopping turns by Judy Kaye, Jane Connell and Paige O'Hara, restored these wonderful old shows to life, not as quaint artifacts but as living examples of a musical theater that had never lost its ability to transport and beguile...
