0.A brochure from Dr. Khan's laboratory, advertising technology used in centrifuges to make nuclear arms, was circulated to aspiring nuclear states and a network of middlemen. It was provided to The New York Times by the Institute for Science and International Security, in Washington. - The Pakistani leaders who denied for years that scientists at the country's secret A. Q. Khan Research Laboratories were peddling advanced nuclear technology must have been averting their eyes from a most conspicuous piece of evidence: the laboratory's own sales brochure, quietly circulated to aspiring nuclear weapons states and a network of nuclear middlemen around the world. - The cover bears an official-looking seal that says "Government of Pakistan" and a photograph of the father of the Pakistani bomb, Abdul Qadeer Khan. It promotes components that were spinoffs from Pakistan's three-decade-long project to build a nuclear stockpile of enriched uranium, set in a drawing that bears a striking resemblance to a mushroom cloud.

Great find, JustPiper. I wonder if there are any peaceful "dual uses" for the items featured?

LayoutGuru2: What do you think of the layout of this brochure? Nice touch with the mushroom cloud-like shape, no?!
