...high-speed centrifuges used to enrich uranium and the equipment required to manufacture more of them. Officials are worried--but have not yet seen proof--that Khan gave those countries rudimentary but effective designs for nuclear warheads. Officials in Washington and at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna say they suspect that Iran may have bought the same set of goods--centrifuges and possibly weapons designs--from Khan in the mid-1990s.

After months of speculation about the cause of Viktor Yushchenko's grotesquely disfigured face, doctors at a prestigious hospital in Austria presented evidence last Saturday that the Ukrainian opposition leader--just like that country's recent election--had been poisoned. Tests done during his third trip to Vienna's Rudolfinerhaus clinic showed that the presidential candidate's blood contained such high levels of dioxin--a toxic by-product of the manufacture of certain disinfectants and herbicides, and an ingredient in Agent Orange--that it was difficult to get an accurate measurement.
