...witnesses to the shooting gave investigators a different version of events. The witness, a sergeant who was Pantano's radio operator, says the lieutenant shot the unarmed Iraqis without provocation. Officers from 2-2 say the sergeant had a track record of underachievement, and Gittins and several Marine officers say the sergeant had a grudge against Pantano after Pantano removed him from a squad-leader position. Gittins says the other witness, the corpsman, confirms that Pantano shouted a warning and says he saw the men move suddenly.

Nor is there much turnover on the tenure track. Even after a high-profile push at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, women accounted for just 34 of the school's 262 science professors in 2003--or 13% of the total, up from 8% in 1993. Says M.I.T. molecular biology professor Nancy Hopkins: "If you were to proceed...
...world a ticking time bomb. That smuggling operation took place under the nose of the CIA and other global-intelligence agencies. But what country did President Bush go after for hiding weapons of mass destruction? Iraq, a Middle Eastern country that didn't have the Bomb. Given that track record, there is no reason to feel confident that Khan is safely under house arrest in Islamabad...
