Update on the chick prisoner:

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia - Iran's foreign minister backed off a prediction that a detained British servicewoman could be freed Wednesday or Thursday but said Tehran agreed to allow British officials to meet with 15 sailors and Marines in Iranian custody.

Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said in an interview with the Associated Press that Britain must admit that its sailors entered Iranian waters for the standoff to be resolved.

Thanks for that update. Sky News just had a breaking story 15 minutes ago about the consular access, but they did not say that the servicewoman would NOT be released as was previously hinted at.
