As official prescriptive military documents go, the Army Field Manual is surprisingly readable. And with all the contentious debate over torture and detainees during the past eight years, the manual - which is publicly available on the U.S. Army web site - is worth reading. Even...

But closer to the epicenter of power, on the podium where President Barack Obama delivered his Inaugural Address, there was a noticeable flurry of fedoras - a nod, perhaps, to a bygone era when wearing a hat was a sign of respect...
