...Passengers will notice a difference: JetBlue's new, Kevlar-packed doors are thicker than the traditional ones, which had a lightweight, honeycombed interior. A bluntly-worded placard now reads, "Reinforced armor-plated door locked from inside cockpit only." Flight attendants for the New York-based airline will also change their safety briefings to make sure passengers take note of the new barrier. What the public won't see is the multiple titanium locks that the pilots slide in place once the door is shut. The doors, which were designed by JetBlue's own engineers, are costing the privately-held JetBlue...

Although some diehard Brattle fans may complain that the previously derelict theater, whose seats were notoriously uncomfortable, has lost some of its original charm, Hinkle and Moylan are keen to point out that these changes were not made in an attempt to revamp the Brattle’s image...
...civilian side, targets would include the apparatus of internal and external security, the defense and interior ministries, police outposts, those sorts of things. It's about doing anything possible from the air to pry loose the Taliban's fingers from the levers of power - anything that facilitates them policing the population is something the U.S. would want to hit, if it wants to topple the Taliban. And that's what they've said they want...
