Powell stressed no fixed deadline but noted a practical limit to noncooperation, with further action to disarm Iraq.

Warner Will Not Seek Additional College Cuts
Virginia Governor Mark Warner plans no further cuts to public college operating budgets in his upcoming $50 billion two year budget. He sent a letter to Virginia Tech President Charles Steger confirming higher education will be spared more reductions after already trimming $858 million last October. Despite this, a $1 billion gap remains, on top of $3.8 billion previously cut, with Senate Democrat John Edwards urging new funding solutions as colleges face layoffs and program cuts.
