 [A TSA spokeswoman said the proposals would not reduce the level of security at airports, adding that no final decisions have been made.] The approach is about focusing the limited resources TSA has where the threat is the greatest, ... The challenge here is to look at security through the lens of threat vulnerability and consequence. The suggestions that are being considered are part of a larger effort to challenge the measures we have in place to help us improve security.

 [Bush's commitment to diversity on the federal courts is borne out by the numbers, said federal court scholar Sheldon Goldman, political science professor at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.] His record has been the best record of any Republican president, ... It exceeds his father's record. It's not as good as President Clinton's record, but it's close to President Carter's. Carter was the breakthrough administration for diversity or nontraditional appointments.

 [By 1:22 a.m. ET, Kerry adviser Joe Lockhart had issued a sharp statement.] Today, the Bush administration must answer for what may be the most grave and catastrophic mistake in a tragic series of blunders in Iraq, ... How did they fail to secure nearly 380 tons of known, deadly explosives despite clear warnings from the International Atomic Energy Agency to do so? And why was this information unearthed by reporters, and was it covered up by our national security officials?

 [Cody Hammer put the Indians up 13-7 after the first overtime possession but his PAT went wide right. Oakdale quarterback Jared Hall punched it in from a yard out on the Patriots’ possession and Matt Alderson nailed the PAT for the win.] I’m real proud of the kids. They were hungry for a win. They deserve a win. I’m excited for them, ... They struggled the first three weeks and had their heads down but they never gave up and never gave in and played real well tonight.

 [From a making-it-work perspective, having a new extension for macros is a good idea, said network security expert Ed Moyle.] It allows virus-checking software in an e-mail to filter on that extension and to search files coming in with that extension more carefully, or to exclude them altogether on a content filtering gateway while allowing the majority of the office docs to pass through without hindrance, ... My only concern is making a smooth transition to the new format.

 [It's easy to wax satirical about the possibility that in some future time there could be more poets laureate in Colorado than readers of poetry. The fact is, poetry is an endangered species, and even those of us with a more prosaic bent can appreciate the importance of encouraging a broader audience. Of course, even poets have different views of what they do. Pablo Neruda wrote, for example, that] poetry is an act of peace, ... Poetry is a way of taking life by the throat.
  Robert Frost

 [Jessica Boevers, who plays the female love interest, was quick to point out that, contrary to earlier reports, her character does not have obsessive compulsive disorder.] I think that showed up in a press blurb somewhere, and people have been saying it ever since, ... Actually, my character has more of a common story. She's a kid who comes to New York with dreams. She's really intelligent and has so much to offer, but hasn't found her place yet, or where to put her energy.

 [Miller still sounds awed when he recounts almost immediately finding himself in a studio with Davis.] He hadn't played in five or six years, since I was 15 or 16 years old, ... As far as I was concerned he was as done as John Coltrane. And then to actually be there with my bass in my hand, looking across at him and we're playing together, I can't describe it. The thing that struck me was that I thought he was at least 6-feet-7. I had to adjust to him being around 5-feet-8.

 [Sherman said the offensive line starters will remain intact, meaning rookie right guard Will Whitticker did not lose his job after committing two penalties, allowing one sack and one knockdown against the Browns. ... Safety Mark Roman also kept his starting job despite missing the tackle on Heiden's touchdown.] He's only missed one tackle in two ballgames. Certainly, it was a big tackle (he missed). There's no question about that, ... But, he's not the first, nor the last.

 [Thorpe had always known that to be true, but he had never done anything about it. Singh's words were a wake-up call. From that day on, despite being Singh's senior by 14 years, he gradually took Vijay's lead about how to practice. Since turning 50 in 1999, Thorpe has won seven times on the senior circuit and earned $7.8 million.] I owe Vijay, ... His attitude is, 'As hard as Tiger works, I work harder and I'm going to beat him.' I'm trying to do the same thing on my tour.

 [Unlike many of the current comic books featuring characters in] JLU, ... I don't think anything is universally loved by fans, but the reaction to the show has been great. It strikes a chord with the fans because of the respect it shows to the source material. We have the luxury of cherry-picking the best elements of over 60 years of stories from the comics. I think the fans realize we love these characters as much as they do and they generally trust us to do right by them.

 [Verizon is reporting disruptions to service in the areas hardest hit by the storm including Galveston and the area to the south of Houston, Beaumont and Port Arthur, Tx., and Lake Charles and Lafayette, La.] Wireless communication is a critical resource, especially during an emergency, ... That's why it is so important for us to respond quickly and comprehensively in a time of crisis, and, more importantly, to build and prepare our network to perform well in any situation.

 After Hurricane Katrina, my wife and I, like so many others, were going to help, but we wondered what the best way to help was, ... We went through Hurricane Floyd here, so we knew that a few years later there were people still living in trailers. That stuff is so terrible. So we decided to put our energy not into the post immediate stress, but rather the stress that sets in a week later when 'Oh my God. We have no house, no job, your school is gone.' Those kinds of things.

 American shoppers would be shocked to learn that the little bit of fur trim on their collars or cuffs -- even if it's shaved or dyed pink or purple to look deceptively fake -- comes from real animals, possibly even dogs or cats. We are grateful to Reps. Ferguson and Moran for introducing the Truth in Fur Labeling Act of 2006, and we urge Congress to pass it quickly. Consumers have the right to make informed purchasing choices, and not to have the fur pulled over their eyes.

 And he took the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that was upon the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right shoulder: / And out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before the LORD, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and put them on the fat, and upon the right shoulder: / And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the LORD.
