News Update

A few updates in the world today.

1) Russia has offered Iran a deal that is much closer to what it is seeking and not at all what the US, France, the UK want. Russia apperently (although confirmation is not at present there) has offered to allow Iran limited amounts of nuclear enrichment on their soil, with the bulk of fuel coming from Rusia. The other countries have insisted on no enrichment in Iran. This marks a break between the big countries.

UPDATE: Russia is denying there is a compromise offered even close to this. See what i get for relying on the MSM

2) Bird Flu is back, and scaring lots of people

3) The Oscars sucked, and so did the ratings, down 8% and under 40 million for only the 2nd time in 20 years. Oh and according to liberal critics, if you didn't want Brokeback to win best picture, you are homophobic. Yippie.

4) Kirby Puckett is dead at 45

5) AT&T merged with BellSouth, huge ramification in the telecom industry

6) South Dakota has banned abortion, pretty much all of it. There is still the morning after pill, but no abortion unless the mother's life is in danger. Let the screaming begin on both sides...

7) I just had a job interview with CEMEX
