Fight! Fight! Fight!
In the latest news involving Russia and Georgia, Russian Prime Minister Putin claims, in a state released interview, that the U.S. intentionally provoked to conflict with Georgia for the benefit of one of the presidential candidates. Russian troops who were retreating from the battlefield confiscated a U.S. National Passport on the Georgian side. The passport is said to belong to a Michael Lee White, born in 1967, and issued in Houston, Texas. In his interview, Putin says that "If my suspicions are confirmed, in that case the suspicion arises that somebody in the United States has intentionally created this conflict with the aim of making the situation more tense and creating a competitive advantage for one of the candidates fighting for the post of U.S. president." It is unclear whether the benefitiary would be McCain or Obama. White House Spokeswoman Dana Perino said that Putin's allegations, made in an interview on CNN, were false, and the U.S. State Department thinks that it was "ludicrous" that Russia did not take responsibility of it's actions in Georgia.
Steve Jobs Dead?
An obtiuary on Apple CEO Steve Jobs was mistakenly published by Bloomberg. The leaked article was published at the gossip blog Gawker. The obituary even contains a list of people to contact for further information. Among the list is Apple Co-founder Steave Wozniak, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, and etc. The obituary offers a summary of Jobs' life, and that he "helped make personal computers as easy to use as telephones, changed the way animated films are made, persuaded consumers to tune into digital music, and refashioned the mobile phone." Most major news outlets keep similar obituaries of important people, just in case. That way the obituaries can come out nearly instantly and further details could be added.
