osama bin laden dead

The President announced that Osama bin Laden had died Sunday night in a televised speech to the nation. His death was the result of the operation, which began in the United States today, Abbottabad, Pakistan, against a compound where he believed that bin Laden is hiding, according to U.S. intelligence. The president said after an exchange of fire, a small group of U.S. troops kill bin Laden and invaded his body.
Note that Obama would speak to 09:45, and less than an hour before it was originally scheduled to go on the air. Unusual combination of time and the fact that the White House did not talk about this issue, a storm of speculation.
Officials have long believed bin Laden, the man wanted in the world, he was hiding in a mountainous region along the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan ...............

Helen Mirren Warms Up

"Saturday Night Live" is having a very British month.
Tonight, Helen Mirren takes the stage, on the heels of last week's Elton John show.
John, of course, with his bawdy bravado and seemingly endless tolerance for jokes about his sexuality, was a natural fit with the show.
The esteemed Mirren -- who won an Oscar for playing the Queen of England -- is about as close as "SNL" has ever come to actually having a queen host.
But not to worry. Mirren seems determined to let her hair down, if this deliciously bizarre Funny or Die video -- set up as a "When Harry Met Sally" sequel -- is any indication.

Japan Nuclear Plant: 2 Missing Fukushima Workers Found Dead

A massive tsunami that crippled a nuclear power plant also killed two workers there, the Japanese operator announced Sunday, confirming the first deaths at the complex.

The two workers – a 21-year-old and a 24-year-old – had been missing since a massive March 11 earthquake spawned the wave, but their bodies were discovered only last week. Engineers have been scrambling to restore power to the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear complex in order to restart cooling systems and stabilize dangerously overheating reactors.

"It pains me that these two young workers were trying to protect the power plant while being hit by the earthquake and tsunami," Tokyo Electric Power Co. Chairman Tsunehisa Katsumata said in a statement.
