While it's always good to now that foreign heads of state have taken abstinence pledges, it's also nice to move away from the celebutainmet of CNN now and again to see what the grownups consider to be the pressing news of the day:
1. Curbing climate change is unlikely as "rising concentrations of greenhouse gases may have more serious impacts than previously believed."
CNN has the SAG awards.

And speaking of the SAGs - which I SO know was Binky's point - I'm increasingly annoyed at Felicity getting all the Desperate Housewives love when Ms. Hatcher and Ms. Cross make that show. I'd I'm going to be annoyed if Philip Seymour Hoffman wins at the Oscars too - c'mon people, vote for Joaquin or Heath or Jake ... but hey, I'll probably put up as Oscar nomination post tomorrow, so I'll stop talking about this not-very-newsy "news" in this thread now.

I just wish that audience had better taste.
