...Ahmed, say U.S. intelligence officials, is still running the support network he began building after the meeting with Saddam in the car. In May 2004 al-Ahmed set off on one of his periodic tours of the combat zone, meeting with local insurgent leaders, distributing money and passing along news--a trip later pieced together by U.S. intelligence analysts wading through the mountain of data and intelligence provided by low-level local informants. Al-Ahmed started in his hometown of Mosul, where he had been supervising--from a distance--the rebuilding of the local insurgent network disrupted after Saddam...
...Orleans' soon-to-reopen French Quarter. The man who said during his re-election campaign that "government is limited in its capacity to heal and help" spoke in bold terms about "one of the largest reconstruction efforts the world has ever seen," proposing a tax-advantaged Gulf Opportunity Zone to create jobs, worker-recovery accounts to help evacuees pay for job training and child care, and even an Urban Homesteading Act to let some low-income victims of Katrina build homes on cheap federal land.

His early posts, some of which are addressed to the insurgents ("The whites of my eyes are the last thing you will see before you kiss the feet of my God ..."), are zealous and antsy for action. His later ones, after he starts going on foot patrol, ducking mortars and witnessing...
...ways no. The defense needs to take a greater leadership role in the first four games. We’ve got new quarterbacks coming into the system, and it’s important that the defense limit the offense to a low score so the offense has a buffer zone to work with. There are great playing anchors in the wide receiver corps—Rodney Byrnes, [Corey] Mazza, Joe Murt, Ryan Tyler. I think the offense is going to do great, but it is important that the defense support the offense, especially in the first four games while...
