Mr. Rogers has passed away, a victim of cancer. Sad, sad, sad...

A high school student is sent home for the high crime of wearing a shirt that featured a picture of Dubya with the caption, "Interenational Terrorist". His vice principle told him that the shirt "supports terrorism". I would suggest that this high school is probably has Civics classes that are involved in some lively discussion right now, but thinking might support terrorism, too. Step in line.. Or else!

Israeli PM Ariel Sharon has formed a new government coalition. He pushed his primary political rival, far-right leader Binyamin Netanyahu, out of the picture (yay!) in exchange for.. More leaders from the far-right! (booo!) In other, more blunt news, expect more suicide bombers.
