...experimental" population. It's an important distinction; while endangered wolves are protected under almost all circumstances, wolves in experimental populations enjoy protection only as long as they don't present a threat to livestock. Under this definition, the Yellowstone wolves live their lives in a state of permanent probation, safe only as long as they mind their business and stay in their range. Wolves that go AWOL and attack domestic animals can be shot as summarily as their ancestors were...

The Firestone-Bordonaro infighting has been so damaging that some Republicans fear that Lois Capps, the sole Democrat in Tuesday's open primary, could top 50% in the three-way race and take the once safe G.O.P. seat outright.

...John Glenn and his search for the ultimate wrinkle cure, CP wishes a safe return to a solid American. But it's a bit like a Foreman fight; you'd rather see him in his prime. So grab (as if CP had to tell you this one) The Right Stuff (1983). This way, you get Ed Harris in John Glenn's prime; he's a better actor.
