Within the FBI, Webster has upgraded Counterintelligence work, formerly considered somewhat of a dumping ground, into a potential path to a senior position. He has also upgraded bureau technology: the FBI has spent millions of dollars on new computers that can cross-reference tips and information...
...Soviets back to the bargaining table by exploiting their greatest fear: that Uncle Sam will pull a technological rabbit out of his top hat. Some see Star Wars as the ultimate bargaining chip, to be traded away for sizable reductions in offensive weapons. Others want to take the cautious path of continuing research to see if a space shield is feasible before deciding whether to build it or negotiate with...
García has been less surefooted in dealing with the relentless but ragtag Shining Path insurgency, which has killed more than 6,000 in five years.

Few bird watchers are lucky enough to spot the latter along their 2,500-mile flight from the Gulf Coast of Texas to Canada's Northwest Territories. They are secretive, and they travel in small...
