How Will The Gulf Oil Spill Affect Human Health?

section:
She says if she were pregnant and living in a Gulf community affected by the 
current oil spill, she would probably consider not eating fish – even though 
she acknowledges that there's been no evidence that contaminated fish has made 
it to market.

Her inclination, she says, "is based on a gut feeling, not data" –- and adds 
that she isn't recommending that pregnant women avoid eating fish.

Obama Ousts McChrystal, Picks Petraeus To Step In

section:
If not insubordination, the remarks — as well as even sharper commentary 
about Obama and his White House from several in McChrystal's inner circle — 
were at least an indirect and extraordinary challenge and one that consumed 
Washington. The capital hasn't seen a similar public contretemps between a 
president and a top wartime commander since Harry Truman stripped Gen. Douglas 
MacArthur of his command more than a half-century ago after disagreements over 
Korean War strategy.
