...extended torture visited upon Mr. Padilla has left him damaged, both mentally and physically," said one court filing by Orlando do Campo, one of Padilla's lawyers. Padilla's filing also says that he was subjected to sleep deprivation and extremes of heat and cold, forced to stand in "stress positions" that can be painful, and given "truth serum" to make him talk...
Because video drains batteries quickly, another challenge MicroOptical faces is installing an efficient power source in the glasses without generating eye-punishing heat or bulking the device up. Kokinakis says people tend to watch video in 20-min. vignettes while sitting on a train or plane, so the goggles may not need the same battery power demanded of notebook computers. For now, he says, the iPod gadget relieves you of having to tilt your head down or hold your arm up to look at the image...
...minds on what's to come, not to mention its own. If you can't make a convincing case in the chambers of the House and Senate for a constitutionally proclaimed war, then perhaps we oughtn't embark on it. President George W.

Thankfully, the big skies and red dust are all appreciated from the air-conditioned side of a tinted window these days. Named after the Afghan...
...public attacks have been relatively subtle, but unmistakable. Having taken heat from the Socialists for eliminating "proximity policing," Sarkozy claimed beat cops in the troubled suburbs hadn't been effective. That's when Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin, instead of backing his party colleague, thought it opportune to propose "tranquility police" - same thing, different name. Defense Minister Mich?le Alliot-Marie, another Chiraquien, suggested at a UMP conference last week that "we shouldn't treat all youth like they're delinquents." An obvious enough truth, but a claque booed and whistled, seeing it as a hit on Sarkozy's tough...
