...Though President Bush has expressed his intention to eventually close the facility, he has vigorously defended the integrity of legal proceedings there. Supporters of the Gitmo status quo-who include officials at the Department of Homeland Security and some in the Justice Department-worry that a transfer of terrorist suspects to the U.S. could give them legal rights-such as the right to appear in court with a lawyer-that would set off a new round of judicial proceedings that could go against the Administration. Those who argue that prisoners should remain at Gitmo also fear the consequences of allowing...
...tidy conspiracy. If he had been stalking Oswald, why was he in a Western Union office wiring $25 to one of his strippers, Karen Carlin, at 11:17 a.m. that Sunday? Not even the Dallas police knew when their interrogation of Oswald would end and when he would be transferred to custody of the county sheriff. In fact, a U.S. postal inspector had unexpectedly dropped in on the questioning and joined the quizzing.

On Sunday morning, three TV technicians reported seeing him near their van overlooking the transfer ramp well before...
...years, many stem-cell researchers sought to accomplish that through nuclear transfer-transplanting an adult cell's nucleus into an egg that had been emptied of its own genetic material. This process is expensive and difficult, and so far no one has been able to pull it off in humans. Yamanaka never tried. Starting with a tiny team in 1999 at the Nara Institute of Science and Technology-he moved to Kyoto in 2004-Yamanaka focused on finding the genes that could persuade an adult cell to regress on its own to an embryonic state, without the messy mechanics...
Late last month, Goodling testified before the House Judiciary Committee that she requested the April meeting with Gonzales to ask for a transfer because of the unfolding scandal surrounding the firing of U.S. attorneys last year. Gonzales told her he'd think about the request, and then suddenly began unveiling his recollection of the firings. "He laid out a little bit of it, and then he asked me if I had any reaction to his iteration," Goodling testified. She told the members of the committee that the conversation had made her "uncomfortable" because she thought both of them might...
