BICYCLIST KILLED IN NE BY HIT AND RUN DRIVER... More on this, shortly...

REPLACE TED!!! Push grows for a fast replacement to the Democratic senator.

NEW JOBLESS CLAIMS FALL!!! Another "it's moderately less awful than it was last week" recession story.

OBAMA WANTS TO ABORT YOUR GRANDMOTHER!!! There's a new front line in the health reform battle.

OBAMA'S BOOK CLUB!!! Everybody rushes out to buy the President's vacation book list.

OREGONIAN INJECTS SENSE INTO HEALTH CARE DEBATE!!! With this totally comprehensible headline:

HEATHERS!!! Fox and Sony want a revival.

DEAD DOMINICK!!! Vanity Fair diarist Dunne dies.

CHINA'S DEATH ROW ORGAN TRANSFERS!!! So long, "human rights." Meanwhile, Apple preps for a launch of the iPhone there.

ANOTHER STAR IS BORN!!! Simon Cowell says a 27-year-old British man named Danyl Johnson gave the "best first audition" he's ever seen last night. Video's pretty good, actually. Better than Joe Cocker wasted at Woodstock, that's for sure.

SH-WITTER!!! Ad executive asks "why is everyone on Twitter so maddeningly positive?" Doesn't get it. Or...does he?

Good day.

I'd go look myself, but navigating the O's website makes me want to check into an insane asylum.
