"Army scientists are working to develop a liquid body armor for clothing that stays flexible during normal use but becomes hard enough to stop a projectile when hit suddenly."

Will reverse-engineered wonders from the Roswell crash never cease? ;-)

"The type of mistreatment Iraqi prisoners have suffered at the hands of US soldiers is unlikely to have occurred without the knowledge of higher authorities, say psychologists by contacted New Scientist - adding support to allegations that the abuse may have been condoned by superiors."

You know, somehow I'm not at all surprised by the implications of this.
