"Suicide blast fails to hit governor; Man dressed as woman in Iraq is the attacker" by Tina Susman, Los Angeles Times | August 13, 2008
BAGHDAD - Insurgents, who have increasingly turned to women to stage suicide bombings, yesterday used a man dressed as a woman in a failed assassination attempt on a provincial governor.
The use of the man in disguise appeared designed to give the attacker easier access to his target. It was the second suicide bomb attack in two days in Baqubah, the Diyala capital. On Monday, a 15-year-old girl blew herself up in Baqubah, killing one Iraqi police officer.
Witnesses said the bomber in yesterday's attack was foiled by Iraqi soldiers stationed along the route. They apparently noticed something suspicious. US Army Major Margaret Kageleiry said the soldiers shot at the bomber, which caused him to detonate his vest prematurely.
Iraqi officials said two civilians died and nine were injured. The US military said one civilian was killed and nine people were wounded. Tamimi, the governor, said the bomber was walking along the sidewalk but headed into the street as the convoy neared.
"He tried to head toward us but we were careful, because suicidal attackers are common in Diyala," Tamimi said, adding that everyone had believed the bomber to be a woman because he was wearing a long, flowing traditional abaya.
The military warned months back that Al Qaeda in Iraq was finding it harder to recruit men and had turned to women to stage suicide attacks. At least 28 women have carried out suicide bombings this year, according to US Army figures, compared with seven last year.
Women have been responsible for some of this year's deadliest attacks, including a pair of market bombings in February in Baghdad that killed more than 90 people. On a single day last month, four women detonated themselves in incidents in Kirkuk and Baghdad, killing more than 50 people."They are REALLY SHOVELING HARD, aren't they?

BAGHDAD (AP) — A female suicide bomber attacked an Iraqi convoy north of Baghdad on Tuesday, killing two people and narrowly missing a provincial governor. The bombing was the second suicide attack by a woman in Diyala Province in two days.

That's what the NYT is running with in THEIR PAPER!
The Iraqi police initially said the bomber was a man, but the American military in northern Iraq said American soldiers at the site had confirmed that the attacker was a woman.
