"We'll look at all the available evidence and make sure the deputies acted properly." Rhodes, a morning news anchor for Fox 13's Good Day Tampa Bay, was arrested Friday night, allegedly after resisting...

    WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A U.S. submarine has collided with a Japanese merchant vessel, a senior U.S. Navy official told CNN. The USS Newport News was surfacing in the Arabian Sea south of the Straits of Hormuz when it hit the Japanese ship, the official said. There were no injuries, he said, but there was some damage. "Neither ship is in extremis," the official said late Monday local time in Washington D.C., meaning the damage was not serious enough to put the ships in jeopardy. The incident recalled a previous collision between a U.S. submarine and a Japanese ship.

    Throughout his hourlong town hall-like meeting in Independence, Kerry spoke of his proposals to require that food labels include a product's country of origin and to expand programs that provide financial aid to farmers who practice conservation. He also highlighted his plans to prohibit corporate meatpackers from owning livestock more than two weeks before slaughter and to increase production of renewable fuels from corn, soybeans and other agricultural sources. Kerry defended his support of the 1990s Northeast Dairy Compact, a regional pricing program that propped up prices for Northeastern dairy farmers over objections of their Midwestern counterparts. Congress did not...

  • BUSH DROPS DOG

    GEORGE Bush stunned his wife Laura and the members of the Waco Midway Little League Softball World Series championship team when he dropped his dog, Barney. However, the American President quickly scooped up the uninjured animal after its fall on to the tarmac at the TSTC Airfield in Waco yesterday. Bush’s political career seems to be on a downward slide of its own, with an ailing economy and unrest in the Middle East threatening the President’s re-election prospects. He still remains a relatively popular leader, according to office-holders and activists in both parties who took stock of the 2004...
