Roundup:
- Another chapter in the Bush administration's efforts towards freedom and democracy; relations are back on with Libya.
- Almost one-third of Palestinians are directly employed by the Palestinian Authority? Wow. And they're all broke, considering the money standoff between the new Hamas government and everyone else.
- Violence against women in Australian Aboriginal areas is soaring - fueled by alcohol, unemployment and a general feeling of uselessness...
- If you're suprised about the EPA shutting down its libraries (including the one at our offices), don't be. We've been told pretty clearly that they're cutting money to the bone, to avoid having to let people go. Meanwhile, polluters keep polluting, and complainers should just shaddup.
