The price of a barrel of oil roseabove $135 a barrel for the first time with supply worries, global demand and an ever weakening U.S dollar driving crude futures up. I think it may be a good time to acknowledge the recession.

The U.N. children's agency said in a statement that an estimated 126,000 Ethiopian children urgently need food and medical care because of severe malnutrition -- and called the crisis "the worst since the major humanitarian crisis of 2003."

Another American Idol has been crowned. David Cook claimed the "American Idol" title beating 17-year-old David Archuleta by a margin of 12 million votes. Much to the dismay of Simon Cowell who at one time declared song choices had sunk Cook, and then told Archuleta that he'd scored a "knockout" in the boxing-themed performance finale. Just before the winner was announced, Cowell uncharacteristically backtracked. He offered Cook an apology and said that the competition "wasn't quite so clear cut as we called it" — even letting on that, for the first time, he felt either finalist would have been a worthy winner.
