...Coelho is under investigation for alleged corruption as head of the American mission at the 1998 World Exposition in Portugal. (That made him refuse to go on TV to spin for Gore, something a good campaign boss must do.) Coelho also dispensed some lousy tactical advice, encouraging Gore to insert himself into the Elian Gonzalez imbroglio, a move widely ridiculed as the worst sort of pandering...

Using fMRI, a new scanning technique that measures blood flow, scientists can tell whether the owner of the brain is imagining a face or a place. They can knock out a gene and prevent a mouse from learning, or insert extra copies and make it learn better. They can see the shrunken wrinkles that let a murderer kill without conscience, and the overgrown folds that let an Einstein deduce the secrets of the universe...
