((The Penagon says today's air strike against Iraqi military targets was

from Washington
The strikes began just after midnight in Iraq.
Sot: Lt General Greg Newbold, Operation's Officer, Joint Chiefs of
Staff. "this was a carefully orchestrated strike"
The Pentagon says 24 aircraft were involved in the operation: Their targeted iraqi military command and control sites. These sites have been threatening American and British aircraft patrolling Iraqi
air space.
Lt General Greg Newbold: Both the frequency and the more
sophisticated command and control of their operations are an increased threat to our aircraft and our crews.
President Bush authorized his first military strike before he
left for Mexico to meet with Mexican leader Vicente Fox.
PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH
Iraq was quick to express outrage..they have released these pictures of civilians they say were wounded during the attack.
Some of the targeted radar sites were located just north of the
southern "no fly" zone.
Its the first strike outside that zone since
1998, when U.S. and British planes staged a four-day air campaign against Iraq.
Right now, at least, the Pentagon does not anticipate More strikes.
Newbold:We think we've accomplished what we were looking for.
All U.S. and British planes involved in the attack returned safely. Drew Levinson))

That loss of habitat in China is the major threat to the panda- which has a wild population of about one-thousand.
The news came out of a report marking the World Wildlife Fund's 40th anniversary.
The report says it's simply not true that pandas are endangered because of an inability to breed.

Harry Potter has already cast a spell on the book world. Now he wants to use the magic of the web to bring fans to the box office.
Warner Brothers unveiled the official Internet site for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" today.
The web site will include quizzes, games, production news and trailers when they become availible. The Harry Potter movie will hit theaters this fall.
And there is another site we want to tell you about- for a completely different kind of web-head.
The Spiderman Hype page is tracking every detail, no matter how small, about next year's movie.
That's not bad considering the movie is 440 days away.
