...When the FBI compounded Reno?s embarrassment by announcing Wednesday that a tape which had languished in bureau files for six years confirmed the decision to use the canisters, she responded with a raid on FBI headquarters. Despite treading cautiously around the issue during her Friday media briefing, she made clear that her anger at the FBI isn?t restricted to the fact that she put her credibility on the line behind an account that some people in the bureau had to know was false ?- the very fact of using hot rounds specifically violated an assurance she says...

The Dow came charging out of the gate to steam up more than 130 points, and after a midafternoon lull sprinted through the tape at 199.15 ? well into record territory. And all this on the eve of a rate hike? Welcome to the "discount" rally. "It?s not so much whether Greenspan raises rates or not, it?s how sure they are that they know what he?s going to do," says TIME senior...
