...French public respects and loves Lance," it was the other 20% that made its presence felt on the grueling climb to Mont Ventoux in Provence on July 21. Armstrong, who is randomly tested for drugs throughout the year and has always been clean, has nevertheless faced suspicion that given his domination of a drug-tainted sport, he must be illegally boosting his performance. And so he was heckled with cries of "Dopé!" as he chased France's Richard Virenque, a rider who confessed to using performance...
Zacarias Moussaoui is almost enough to make the most fervent civil libertarian come out in favor of secret military tribunals. The French national was arrested in August 2001 after arousing suspicion at a Minnesota flight school and was indicted last December as a Sept. 11 co-conspirator, though his precise role in the plot has never been clear. Many Americans hoped his trial would prove that even in wartime, U.S. courts could do their job. But the scales of justice tip wildly when a defendant keeps turning his own proceedings upside down...
...motorcycles toward an elementary school; the next, they were getting fired at by strangers who then vanished into the forest like ghosts.

But Martha Stewart is not the only stockholder of the biotech firm who is coming under suspicion for possible insider trading.

The FDA formally turned down...
...Moussaoui's "martyrdom" mission went ahead without him, largely as a result of his own sloppiness. The hapless 34-year-old Frenchman had been arrested by the FBI on immigration charges after carelessly arousing suspicion at a Minnesota flight school. Even in those infinitely more innocent days, a man impatient to learn to operate a Boeing 767 in midair but singularly uninterested in the art of takeoff and landing was not going to pass unnoticed. His more disciplined comrades were careful to avoid triggering alarms, diligently mastering the superfluous skills of takeoff and landing during their time at American flight...
