...official: The U.S., at least, is reversing its 10-year-old policy on Lockerbie and Libya. State Department spokesman James Rubin went on the record late Tuesday over the plan to allow a trial for the two Libyan suspects in the Netherlands -- and confirmed, as TIME Daily reported, that this was an attempt to "call Ghadafi's bluff."

...courtroom drama was swift and efficient. After a two-week murder trial, jurors deliberated for less than six hours and emerged with a guilty verdict, putting a killer behind bars for life.

In a one-year trial on Chinese patients, viral levels in the blood fell more than 90% for those who took the drug...
After so many years of inaction, the Lawrence family and others are finally demanding justice loudly and forcefully, and, at their request, the police stand, as if on trial, before a month-long public inquiry into their mishandling of the case...
