To prevent future mishaps, Major General Donald Peterson said the Air Force would give regular training for pilots on civilian Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance Systems; would implement new procedures...
When the committee handed down its verdict last week, Gingrich got off with a reprimand, not the censure that would have required him to step down as Speaker.

The recommendation is expected to go to the full ethics committee next Wednesday, a day after the House votes to elect a Speaker. Gingrich must...

In other words, the company's shareholders...
