Disclaimer: Incredibly depressing

Another earthquake hits Japan today, which is
still reeling from the events of one month ago.

Radiation levels are on the rise. Workers are evacuated from the nuclear plant, where they were frantically trying to prevent a meltdown.

The Battle for Libya Rages On. Air targets hit unintended targets. "Collateral damage".

Turning to your local news:

The two teenagers who raped, brutalised and murdered a young local girl are diagnosed sociopaths, and were filmed joking about the murder, no remorse.

The man who, three years ago, murdered his three children during a psychotic break, and who is reported as still having "major anger issues", is granted day parole, so he can go to Starbucks.

The man who beat a puppy to death in a Victoria motel room
is given a six month sentence.

And finally, for your entertainment pleasure:

The Royal Wedding will be shown on giant screens, so the world's poor can see how far from their reality the world's rich live.
