...former prime minister's elation hasn't faded. "I'm absolutely thrilled," she says. "Now I am free of any stain." When reminded that the verdict is not a wholesale exoneration, but rather an order to set aside her conviction for taking kickbacks from a Swiss firm and proceed with a retrial and that charges remain pending against her, Bhutto is dismissive. "Anyone can make a charge. All this is a plot to deny my leadership to the people of Pakistan." She was routed at the polls when she last stood for election in 1997, but the court's decision...
Where this burst of public and private activity leaves the Administration is anyone's guess. The E.U. and the other Kyoto signatories may continue to proceed as if the protocol is still alive, hammering out such complicated details as emissions trading, which would permit countries that exceed their required cuts to sell credits to other countries, allowing them to fall short of their own. The U.S. has not said it won't attend the July meeting, though things could get awkward if Washington has pulled out of the pact and sends its representatives simply for appearances.

...Virginia, Lewis steamed that the move was "the latest gambit in an ongoing effort by Director Freeh to move this case from this office, which would not accede to his demands as to how the case should be prosecuted."

Still, there's hope, says Dr. Ronald Petersen, director of the Alzheimer's Researcher Center at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. "These people are really quite functional." For if MCI is indeed the earliest stage of Alzheimer's disease, and if it's possible to slow its progression, patients might be able to delay the onset of full-blown Alzheimer's and preserve a fairly decent quality of life...
...Freeh and Lewis have long battled over how to proceed in the probe of the truck bombing at the military barracks in Dharan, Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 U.S. airmen and injured dozens more. The case has languished for a host of reasons, including the Saudis' early refusal to allow American law enforcement officials to interview people suspected of having a connection to the incident. Sources in Lewis's camp say some in the FBI pressed for indictments and advocated other aggressive moves, but prosecutors have considered the evidence far too thin. FBI officials counter that the issue was never...
