Into Thin Air - Newsweek
A September '07 article on America's hunt for Bin Laden.

This is what I was reading a few minutes ago:

Can a lack of sleep set back your child's cognitive abilities? - New York Magazine
A quick article about the impact of sleep deprivation on children and adults.

There's a lot of other articles that I enjoyed a lot that I'll probably post in the near future, but these were easy to find and are a good start for the thread. So, what do you guys have? :)
