Headlines below the fold

Remember that multi internet cable damage in the Middle East?

Well, two of the culprits have been found, and it turns out they were just careless...and how did they catch who did it? by examining GPS records and satellite imaging.

Chinese and Russian cyberwar allies?

First they say no to meat, now they say no...to plants?
In a report on "the dignity of the creature in the plant world", the federal Ethics Committee on non-human Gene Technology condemned the decapitation of flowers without reason, among other sins.

"secret" US/Iran talks revealed by Thomas Pickering..
Iran needs clean reliable nuclear power (ironically, they have oil but few refineries), Russia needs the money for selling them reactors, but no one wants them to get nukes.

Last year Bill Clinton said McCain would be the best GOP candidate in a general election...and might garner more votes among "who live in the 'flyover zone' and don't live for politics"
