...Shirley Bonner's family owns a herd about 18 miles outside of Springfield. As of Thursday night, 100 of 130 animals were located, but more bad weather is predicted, and family members were frantically trying to chop ice over frozen water supplies and make snow paths that the animals would follow. Others used snowmobiles to ferry water in old cream cans to locations where cows might get to them. Acknowledging that the relationships between ranchers and animals aren't purely economic, Bonner spoke softly of emotional connections: "No matter how many animals you have," she said, "you know them...

A meeting of state and local officials was scheduled on Friday to discuss how to handle all the carcasses.

...that Dear Leader Kim Jong-il is in no hurry to end his newly-minted membership in the nuclear club. Pyongyang's delegates refused to even discuss the nuclear program, instead insisting that the talks first solve the issue of some $24 million in North Korean funds that are frozen in a Macau bank account at Washington's behest. The North Koreans even threatened to raise the stakes: After five days of stonewalling, North Korean delegate Kim Kye Gwan told reporters that in response to Washington's "carrot and stick" approach, the North would adopt a "dialog and shield" approach...
