LAPD
60 members of an elite squad that swarmed into MacArthur Park in LA and fired rubber bullets during a May Day immigration rally are no longer on the street and have been reassigned. Apparently they are all going to work as cameraman for Lou Dobbs.

Roger Clemens signed a $28,000,022 one-year contract with the Yankees. Clemens wanted to make clear he is not doing this for the dollars, and that the $28 millions is just for gas money.

Queen
Queen Elizabeth is visiting the US. Some political analysts believe she came to reinforce the ties with the Bush administration, but other think she is just here to promote Pirates of the Caribbean III
