...intelligence scoop was the end result of a shift in the military's approach to tracking Saddam that began taking shape in mid-summer. Instead of trying to wring information out of high ranking members of his regime, they began focusing on lower-level functionaries and a small number of families that were believed to be aiding and protecting Saddam.

...Fliegel ’06, A.J. Wolosenko ’06, and Andrew Shimomura all turn in entertaining performances as Foustka’s sycophantic coworkers (Shimomura doing far and away the best job of the three), and Rowan Dorin ’07 does the same as a lower-level manager of sorts.

Country-club memberships and other perks that might breed class resentment are frowned upon; everyone flies coach, including the CEO. De Luca roams the halls to chat with lower-level staffers and encourages everyone to e-mail him with ideas. A few years ago, he dyed his hair pink after losing a bet with an employee. That sent the signal, he says, that "the boss may be crazy, but he's somebody I can talk...
