...never had such access in a place of residence, this might seem like a frivolous demand—how bad is it to have to plug into an Ethernet jack that even in the most generous of housing arrangements is no more than 20 feet away? But ask any biochem concentrator who sleeps in the science center and they’ll tell you that there’s a unique liberty in being able to surf the web from a couch or research a paper in bed, and I also tend to believe it increases productivity...
...astounding that I would be given such powers to affect a system. It's election season, and people want to seek scapegoats." But U.S. intelligence officials doubt the credibility of many of the sources provided by the I.N.C. An informant purported to have worked on underground storage sites for biochem weapons greatly "embroidered" his tales, a senior U.S. intelligence officer says. Another I.N.C. source provided corroborating reports that Saddam had mobile weapons labs, a charge Secretary of State Colin Powell presented before the U.N. in February 2003. Intelligence officials had red-flagged that source with a "fabricator notice," meaning...
...there’s a very simple reason why creative writing courses here are chronically over-demanded and under-supplied. It often seems that almost all Harvard undergraduates—from the students originally admitted for extraordinary writing to the most militantly anti-humanities biochem concentrators—secretly think they’ve got a novel in them, or at least a couple of short stories. We’re intellectuals, by and large, and we’re also kind of pretentious, and when you pair vintage Harvard ambition with genuine Harvard intellect, it?...
...troops massing on the border. Though none hit their target, the Iraqi missiles were enough to unnerve many of the U.S. forces, which were gearing up to begin their invasion on Friday. With each missile alert, frontline soldiers were forced to retreat to their bunkers and don full-protection biochem suits, only to hear minutes later that the bombs had landed in the desert or the gulf. Even commanders in Kuwait held videoconferences with Franks while wearing their gas masks. The haphazard nature of Iraq's response convinced Pentagon officials that the U.S. strike had succeeded in creating a power...
...specially converted commercial trucks that cruise Iraqi highways to foil pursuers. "His weapons-of-mass-destruction capabilities are mobile," Rumsfeld said last week. "They can be hidden from inspectors no matter how intrusive." Hardest of all to get rid of are the notebooks and computer hard drives filled with biochem recipes and nuclear designs that Saddam's scientists have compiled over the years. Even if all of Saddam's germ factories and the weapons made in them were eradicated, he would still possess the knowledge needed to rebuild after he "disarmed...
