...THEY WORK? A good model like the Advantage 1000 CBA-RCA does, but you have to be wearing it when the gas hits. To do that, you have to know when to put it on, and unfortunately some biological and chemical weapons have no odor (see air sniffer). Surplus Israeli army models can't be trusted to be in good condition. Fiber masks designed for medical workers keep out some germs but not chemical or biological weapons...
...ministry provides quarters for a dozen or so foreign journalists. Despite the lovely garden and songbirds--Afghans are passionate about both--conditions are austere. We sleep seven to a room, on the floor, and limited bathing facilities mean that a faint Camembert-like odor hovers about us. It is unusual for a defense ministry to take paying guests. But this is an unusual war. At night each side lobs a few shells, as if to remind the enemy it still exists. Frontline commanders ply visitors with tea and grapes...
...Known weirdo Rick J. Mays ’03, who was once described by a former partner as “bearing the inescapable odor of regrettable life decisions,” brought several additional pungent aromas into the life and bathroom of new squeeze Lana V.

Perhaps that accounts for the sense that even when she sings of desolation, Branco's delivery seems animated by the pleasure of recovering something lost. For her listeners, the pleasure lies in hearing a venerable art form...
...what sort of haven is the U.S. now? Technically, and in the very short term, not too different. Alan Greenspan will spare no liquidity to keep the money market and banking system oiled and the dollar in respectable odor, and investors, by the time stock markets reopen Monday, will probably have found enough silver linings in the massive renovations and relocations ahead to keep stocks afloat and perhaps even bid them higher. Think about tech stocks - when the tallest hives of the financial district and the Pentagon?s communications center is destroyed, there?s a lot of capital spending...
