Those books also detailed adventures in a magic world void of parents host to unearthly creatures, real and present danger, witches and wizards (good and bad), talking animals, intoxicating drinks and magical sweets, in short all the things which parents have objected to in Rowling's novels. Yet Lewis' books have gone down as one of the great children's series of all time, not to mention surreptitiously inculcating children of all ages with the tenets of the Christian faith...

Not only does the CIA website have games for kids, but the agency's also getting into e-tail--a 1996 map of Iraq costs $7. Last month Langley played host to its first-ever gala premiere, for the TV movie In the Company of Spies, where CIA head George Tenet rubbed shoulders with actor Tom Berenger (center, with his wife). Next month the agency's new venture-capital firm, In-Q-It (the Q refers to James Bond's gadgetmaker), plans...
