...This may be the most vulnerable Brazilian team in years. The health of Rivaldo, Barcelona's midfielder, is suspect. And Ronaldo, who returned to the lineup in just the past few weeks, has yet to impress. Ronaldinho and Emerson cannot guarantee ball possession, and Roberto Carlos treats his left back position as a forwarding address. Then again, this is Brazil we're talking about, and the team is in one of the Cup's weakest groups. Its opponents?Turkey, China and Costa Rica?pose little danger. China is here on a pass?it didn't have to play South Korea...
...interstate highway. By turning on the cell phone in his car and dispatching a series of letters to his family and a student newspaper, Helder had ensured his arrest.

Instead of trying to write complicated equations for everything, he says, scientists should have been searching instead for the cellular automata that correspond to what they are observing...
...civilians displaced by the fighting. AFGHANISTAN Operation Condor British troops based at Bagram airbase were called into combat for the first time after Australian special forces came under attack in eastern Paktia province. Backed by U.S. airpower, around 1,000 troops swung into action against suspected Taliban fighters close to the border with Pakistan. But there seemed no end to mishaps: a U.S. bombing raid mistakenly killed more than 10 civilians, and more than 300 British soldiers were quarantined after 38 were struck down by a contagious gastric illness.

Gentlemen: I must confess serious doubts about the efficacy—or even the integrity—of the “classic” exam period editorial, “Beating the System,” you reprinted recently. I almost suspect this so-called “Donald Carswell ’50” of being rather one of Us—the Bad Guys—than one of you. If your readers have been following Mr. Carswell’s advice for the last 11 years, then your readers have been going down the tubes...
