They come from Mexico, where a third of the people live on $2 a day or less, and from other countries where poverty, national disasters and political upheaval unleash an exodus of refugees. Since the early 1990s, the border patrol has partly sealed the California frontier with its operations "Hold the Line" and "Gatekeeper." But they did not deter the illegal immigrants and their "coyote" smugglers for long. Instead, the crackdown has driven them into the Southwestern deserts, where...

The Air Force wants to outfit a fleet of 747s with lasers. These "Warbirds" could explode enemy missiles shortly after launch, well before they could unleash their batches of warheads on American soldiers or local civilians. Computers on the plane will bend the laser's "rubber mirror" hundreds of times a second to keep the beam fixed on the missile's skin for the three to five seconds needed to destroy...
