Greenland ice cap melting faster than thought: study
An aerial view shows melting glaciers near Ilulissat in GreenlandFederal budget deficit for October: $176.36 billion - largest October deficit on record.
It is the first month of fiscal 2010The deficit news comes the same day that the Wall Street Journal is reporting that the White House is considering spending unused bailout money to pay down the deficit, in a story co-bylined by my former Post colleague, Jonathan Weisman.
But think about this for a minute:
The bailout was not a big pile of unused cash sitting around waiting to be spent. It was new money that came from bond sales, which added to the national debt. Now, the White House is thinking about using some of that money to pay down the debt -- that it created!
Or, here's another analogy: using one credit card to pay off another.

Nov. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Kellogg Co., the largest U.S. breakfast-cereal maker, said flooding at an Atlanta facility and repairs at a Tennessee factory will cause Eggo waffle shortages through the middle of next year.
The scarcity was triggered by September’s floods in the southeastern U.S., which temporarily closed an Atlanta waffle factory, as well as by equipment problems at the company’s largest waffle plant, in Rossville, Tennessee, spokeswoman Kris Charles said today in an e-mail.

Forbes.com | Will China Eat Our Lunch?
11.13.09, 05:40 PM EST
Impudent criticism of the U.S. government's fiscal mess underscores the momentum of China's rise to economic ascendancy.As President Barack Obama prepared for his first presidential visit to Asia, he was publicly hectored by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao to ensure that the U.S. will "effectively discharge its responsibilities," which means, he says, "We hope the U.S. will keep its deficit at an appropriate size so that there will be basic stability in the exchange rate and that is conducive to the stability and recovery of the world economy."
Get that. China is publicly chastising the U.S. for its fiscal irresponsibility. You know what, China has a right to complain; it is the single largest creditor nation to the U.S. government, holding $797 billion--nearly a quarter--of the total $3.45 trillion owed by Uncle Sam. Thanks to the decline in the value of the U.S. dollar, the Chinese have watched the value of their investment in U.S. debt drop by $128 billion in the past year.
Thieves make off with beer truck
Published Friday November 13, 2009 - Authorities in Lincoln have tapped into the Omaha Police Department's resources in hopes of nabbing a couple of thieves who stole a refrigerated trailer truck that was hauling 244 kegs of beer.
A Lincoln business, Crete Carrier, reported one of its refrigerated semitrailers stolen Nov. 1.
The truck is white-and-blue with blue Shaffer Trucking logo decals on the side and back.
So far, the truck has eluded authorities in Nebraska's two biggest cities.
Omaha police said the truck was spotted recently near 3800 L Street. Two men were seen trying to sell kegs of beer from the trailer. The same truck was also spotted in the area of 30th and Q Streets.
