...Studying Ash Shinariya from his hatch, Mitchell, a wiry 34 year-old, turned to his crew-blonde Texan Sergeant Robert Jones and care free Californian Private First Class Jonah Bishop-and cracking a wide grin he uttered into his mic, "lees go een start a feet." (Translation from Mississippi's best Braveheart imitation: Lets go start a fight.) The recon mission was to test Iraqi defenses around Ash Shinariya. But in spite of the Braveheart bravado nothing came of it. At 9:59am Mitchell ordered the small squad to turn about face. Three minutes later, just after the lead Abrams...

Congress will do some reviewing too. Both the House and Senate are ginning up for hearings into the disaster.

Some say the sculptor tried to portray David at the moment when he determined to slay the giant. Perhaps Rumsfeld is regarding Saddam or a false Goliath of terrorism...

When hotel giant Marriott International needed a new board member last year, it nominated investment banker George Munoz, 51, an amiable, meticulous Texan who runs a private investment firm in Washington. It isn't hard to see why Munoz got the nod: he went to the right school (Harvard Law, class of '78), he knows the right people (Marriott CEO Bill Marriott is a friend), and he has managed multibillion-dollar portfolios. But Munoz doesn't simply fit the profile of the traditional corporate director: he's an expert on Latin America, where Marriott hopes to expand aggressively...
