Justice Scalia and Chief Justice Roberts pressed questions on federal pre emption, suggesting a major win for Wyeth and similar businesses seeking to curb multi state litigation. Diana Levine, a Vermont resident, lost a hand after a Wyeth anti nausea drug led to gangrene.

Gunmen abduct French aid worker in Kabul
Gunmen in a red Corolla stopped a van carrying French aid workers in Kabul and kidnapped one man while fatally shooting an Afghan official who tried to intervene. The incident raises Westerner-targeted security worries as Afghan crime surges and the Afghan Taliban deny involvement. The kidnapped man, in his 30s and a French national, had been in Afghanistan about a week.
