...other reaction to this live-feed puppycam just isn't human. The streaming video of six baby Shiba Inus, a Japanese hunting breed, has generated nearly 2 million happily distracted views since it was launched just over a month ago. (The live feed occassionally goes "off air" but thankfully comes back to life after short periods.) The puppies - three males and three females named Autumn, Ayumi, Amaya, Aki, Akoni, Ando - spend most of their time sleeping, but there is enough twitching, scratching, yawning, spooning, wrestling and yipping to keep viewers glued to their computer screens. (The puppies' caretakers sometimes appear...
...Despite the stock market's euphoric reaction and the positive reviews by analysts, economists warned that the effects of the measures will take time to work through the system, with the largest impact not likely to be felt until 2010. "I think that we'll see a couple of weak quarters in 2009," Simpfendorfer says. While the size of the package was welcome, "it's the speed of its implementation that is really important," he says.

Obama's mistakes have been mainly exaggerations and minor factual errors. He has also used some sound bites and headlines that may offer misconceptions about McCain's motives and ideas. However, when it comes to innuendo, unethical half-truths, character assassination and, yes, plain miserable, rotten lies - I would give McCain...
...obvious reaction to this crisis is a call for the United States to send aid. But because this situation is fully entangled in international diplomatic bureaucracy and constrained by the very instable power structures that exist in the region, that simple task is never simple. Without utilizing these traditional channels of bureaucrats, the U.S. could possibly violate the sovereignty claim of the Congolese government. However, as the stakes are demarcated in human lives, the cost of an international scandal should not stand in the way of any humanitarian aid that is deemed necessary for the subsistence of the Congolese refugees...
...most part, Iranian government reaction was muted. Iran's conservative broadcast media reported on Obama's victory right away, but state television's most important evening news program highlighted people's discontent with the Republicans - and in particular, with Bush's post-9/11 policies - rather than focusing on the euphoria surrounding the person and candidacy of America's first black President...
