Thanks this morning to ChrisM, my MP3Angel, for supplying the news & commentary audio files.
In California this would go un-noticed - A 3.5 earthquake near Washington D.C. jangles nerves. There was no damage or reports of injuries.
The senate conference committee looking at the Finance Reform bill signs off on it... Next week The senate will see to the seating of the replacement senator for West Virginia Democrat Robert Byrd who passed recently, and there will be more contentious debate on the unemployment benefit extension while millions lose them.
The prospect of a government worker slowdown in California is looming as the governor penalizes the workers of the state reducing them to minimum wage because the legislature (a well-paid cohort) is stalling the state budget. A state court will rule on the governor's idea today.
With thirty hours to go, the pressure test on the Deepwater Horizon pipe cap seem to show success but Foreign Policy Magazine put it this way:
For the first time since April, oil has stopped flowing into the Gulf of Mexico after BP successful placed a new cap over the gushing well yesterday. Engineers will continue to take pressure readings from the cap until at least Saturday. If pressure reading hold, it will be a sign the pipe underneath is undamaged and the 35,000 to 60,000 barrels of oil spilling out of the well per day can be captured by surface ships.
Authorities at all levels warned against undue optimism. "It's far from the finish line. ... It's not the time to celebrate," said BP Chief Operating Officer Doug Suttles, warning that the flow of oil could still resume. [In Full w/ Links]

No Justice... Yesterday, July 15 2010, radical lawyer Lynne Stewart was sentenced to 10 years in prison. "In February 2005, Lynne had been convicted on 7 counts of “conspiracy, providing material support to terrorists, and defrauding the U.S. government”.
The government had alleged that Lynne had facilitated communication between a man she was defending in court, fundamentalist Islamic cleric Omar Abdel Rahman, and people in Egypt." [source]
If you believe in JUSTICE:
"This statement was signed by almost all attendees at the IVAW (Iraq Veteran Against the War) conference this past weekend."
Bradley Manning is the U.S. soldier now in a US military prison in Kuwait who has been arrested and charged with two violations for releasing classified information (the Wikileaks "Collateral Murder" video) and facing 54 years in prison.
He is being held in isolation from the outside world – with no contact with his civilian attorneys working to defend him.
If the allegations are true, we believe that Bradley Manning is a hero for bringing to light the realities of the crimes being committed in the U.S. occupation.
We call for his immediate release and that his attorneys be allowed to talk to him."
SIGN THE PETITION!
