 CNN.com - Asteroid zooms into view for binoculars - August 16, 2002
The space rock, 2002 NY40, is not to be mistaken for 2002 NT7, another newly discovered asteroid that generated headlines weeks ago when scientists briefly mused that it would smack into our planet in 2019.
For the first half of this month, 2002 NY40 hardly changed its position in the sky in the constellation Aquarius, a sign that the asteroid is heading in our direction.
On August 18, it will make its closest swing by Earth and be at its brightest, astronomers said.

 Memo Offered Justification for Use of Torture (washingtonpost.com)
In August 2002, the Justice Department advised the White House that torturing al Qaeda terrorists in captivity abroad "may be justified," and that international laws against torture "may be unconstitutional if applied to interrogations" conducted in President Bush's war on terrorism, according to a newly obtained memo.
The legal reasoning in the 2002 memo, which covered treatment of al Qaeda detainees in CIA custody, was later used in a March 2003 report by Pentagon lawyers assessing interrogation rules governing the Defense Department's detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Still, the 2002 and 2003 memos reflect the Bush administration's desire to explore the limits on how far it could legally go in aggressively interrogating foreigners suspected of terrorism or of having information that could thwart future attacks.
