POPSWhy the Wall St bailout is a bad idea Oh, and let's not forget that we import a lot of stuff. If the dollar collapses in the FOREX, all that stuff will be a lot more expensive.

POPSEclipse-Watchers Worldwide Gear Up For Friday's Event Before there was a scientific explanation for eclipses, myth and mystery was pervasive.

POPSFlooding Puts Cedar Rapids, Much Of Iowa Under Water The downtown library, with its 300,000 books, was shut down after workers relocated some of its collection from lower shelves to avoid the rising water. While Cedar Rapids was the worst hit, the entire state of Iowa was battered by bad weather and flooding. Gov. Chet Culver declared 83 of the state's 99 counties as disaster areas. In Des Moines, 100 miles to the southwest, officials issued a voluntary evacuation order for much of downtown and other areas bordering the Des Moines River. Mayor Frank Cownie said the evacuations in the state's capital were an attempt "to err on the side of citizens and residents." Despite the flooding and evacuations, Iowa authorities reported no fatalities or serious injuries linked to the weather woes.
