...conflagration, says Coulson ?- they were fired hours before the blaze started and couldn?t have been responsible. Guess what? Admission/denials like that don?t satisfy anyone (just ask George W. Bush), and the Waco conspiracy-theory factory, long dormant, was up and running again. TIME Justice correspondent Elaine Shannon says she has no reason to believe that the new version, in which the feds shot two pyrotechnic devices that bounced away harmlessly hours before the blaze started, is false. But for skeptics, the big question ?- why, after six years, are we just now hearing about this? ?- is irresistible...
...mind saying that Lee?s ethnicity was "a major factor." Vrooman claimed to have counted 13 white scientists at Los Alamos who made the same visits to China as Lee and talked to the same Chinese scientists. None were part of the investigation. But TIME Washington correspondent Elaine Shannon reminds that none of them had left the door open to one of Los Alamos? most important barns. "He took the top-secret legacy codes and left them vulnerable," she says. "The FBI can?t prove that he delivered them to the Chinese ? Vrooman is right about that...
...case hit the papers at a time when the Cox committee was scouring the DOE?s shoddy security record and screaming for Asian heads. Not a good time for a Taiwan-born scientist to have broken so serious a rule. But Bob Vrooman?s heart isn?t bleeding, says Shannon ?- this outburst is more about covering Vrooman?s rear than saving Lee?s.

"Does Bill Richardson believe that...
...Mike Hlas commented, "That was one bad throw. I know it's not as easy as it looks, but man." Even worse, Veronica Portillo, a girlfriend of one of the players, said, "You looked a little old for the first pitch. They're usually little kids." But her friend Shannon Kroll said, "Your outfit looked good." I should reveal here that I bought Shannon a beer. In fact, I bought a lot of people beer. You can't help it when you're in Iowa. Not so much because everyone is nice but because beer is really cheap...
...Even many thoughtful conservatives agree with Clinton," says TIME Washington correspondent Elaine Shannon. "Computing speed has increased exponentially, and unless U.S. regulations are updated, business will go to Japan or South Korea." There is even a national security rationale to allowing U.S. exports of better computers. If other countries like China use our computers, says Shannon, "it gives us a better understanding of how their systems work. We know the strength and limitations of our computers and how to get into them." The updated regulations will still keep top-of-the line, state-of-the-art, national security computers...
