Clinton himself, it turns out, asked Eugene Ludwig, who as Comptroller of the Currency is the Treasury's top banking regulator, for advice about the Madison investigation. According to Ludwig's spokesman Lee Cross, at a Renaissance Weekend conference over the New Year holiday in South Carolina, Clinton asked Ludwig, who was sitting next to the President in a seminar, "if he could provide any advice on the Whitewater matter, advice on the legal and regulatory issues" involved in the collapse of Madison.

After five days, the rats were treated with an antiherpes drug. The hope was that the toxin would kill...

The fetus' own undescended testes. In those rare cases in which the tiny body does not respond to the hormone, a genetically male fetus develops sex organs that look like a clitoris and vagina rather than a penis. Such people look and act female. The majority marry and adopt children...
