...almost conclude not only that no one was watching, but that no one cared." Such was the frank admission of CIA Director R. James Woolsey regarding the most damaging security lapse in the agency's history: the breach that let Aldrich Ames compromise dozens of cia operations and fatally unmask key U.S. agents behind the Iron Curtain. Nonetheless, Woolsey announced that no one would be dismissed or demoted as a result of the spectacular fiasco; 11 current and retired officials will get only reprimands. The wrist slap triggered an outburst of congressional anger, including one suggestion that the CIA chief...
Looking through the breast implants has powerful effects. In the porno montage, they unmask the misogyny and artificial sex appeal of breasts.

Such major insurers as State Farm (surplus capital: $18 billion) and Allstate ($8 billion) will have enough financial staying power, but some less capitalized firms are getting wiped out. Last week the Florida department of insurance seized two insolvent insurers, Florida Fire & Casualty in Fort Lauderdale and Great Republic in Miami, and placed about a dozen others...
...there a reason why you wouldn't tell the truth if your father did touch you?" asks Purnell, trying to unmask the apparent cover-up. Tracy says no. Suddenly, Master Walker's loud voice booms across the courtroom. "She's giving more signals than a third-base coach for the Boston Red Sox," Walker says, gesturing toward the girl's mother. He has been watching her coach Tracy from the bench nearby...
