Then, again, maybe they won't. Davis' most audacious proposal--allowing California cops to put a "roving wiretap" on any phone used by a suspect rather than on specific phone numbers (a power granted to the FBI last October)--is a canny merger of the dramatic and the cheap. No other state has sanctioned roving taps--hence the drama--and civil liberties, while priceless, are free. That helps explain why wiretap laws are also up for modification in Maryland, Illinois, New York and Michigan...

...Ambrose--a professor after all--I suspect that this momentary humiliation is a lot more painful than his gruffer-than-thou remarks let on. His students will be staring at him, wondering.

Researchers suspect that omega-3s may block the production of inflammatory substances linked to autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Even more tantalizing, preliminary reports suggest that omega-3s interact with the fatty layers that surround brain cells and, as fishy as it sounds, may somehow help protect brain cells from...

...that swishing green tea around the mouth may inhibit cavity-causing bacteria. Applied to the skin of laboratory mice, it also seems to reduce the incidence of skin cancer. What about black tea? Made from the same leaves as green, though processed differently, it may be equally effective, scientists suspect...

...will not argue, as many have, that the wage should be increased as a matter of morality and justice. My experience is that definitions of social justice, its importance in competition with other demands and how it is to be accomplished, differ markedly from person to person. I strongly suspect that you and I do not agree on any of the three. Rather, I restrict myself purely to practical considerations...
