"WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Bush administration is checking the accuracy
of a watch list of suspected terrorists banned from traveling on airliners
in the U.S. and will probably cut the list in half, the head of the
Transportation Security Administration said Wednesday."

"Gonzales announced an abrupt end to the warrantless electronic
surveillance program on Wednesday, just two weeks after Democrats took
control of the U.S. Congress, promising investigations and legislation to
bring the program in line with the law."

"Under the rules issued by the Pentagon on Thursday, statements
obtained through torture cannot be used as evidence."
