BREAKING NEWS: Dozens of Tornadoes Reported in Midwest States

The National Weather Service says more than three dozen tornadoes have been reported Saturday. As of 8:00pm ET there were 48 tornado sightings across four states, with the first wave clustered in southwest Kansas. There were reports of damage to homes in the town of Hanston and Kansas-based KWCH-TV reported a number of overturned cars and downed power lines in three counties. There is high risk for severe weather into the overnight hours extending into Sunday when the same storm system moves east, the Fox Extreme Weather Center says.

Vladimir's Tale

Anne Applebaum | NYRB | 11 April 2012

Beck And The Beast

Todd Purdum | Vanity Fair | 12 April 2012

Death To Word

Tom Scocca | Slate | 11 April 2012

Enough of the animated paper clip. And the autocorrect. And the HTML crust. And the forcible indenting of anything resembling a list. Word is the fax machine of our time. You really get to hate the people who still use it Comments

Cheat Sheet - Heckuva Job, Hillary!

The Cheat Sheet

Today: Secret Service Agents Booted , Plains Brace for Tornado Outbreak , At the NRA Convention in St. Louis, They Should Thank President Obama
Cheat Sheet: Morning

April 14, 2012
RUMOR HAS IT

Speculation about Hillary Clinton in 2016 just won’t die. But the secretary of state will only have a shot if she’s learned the painful lessons of the disastrous 2008 campaign, writes The Daily Beast’s Paul Begala.

WHAT HAPPENS IN CARTAGENA

This behavior isn’t going to stay secret for long. The U.S. Secret Service has recalled 12 agents in Colombia after allegations of misconduct. The president arrived in the nation for the Summit of the Americas, which started Friday. While Obama’s security has not been compromised, at least one agent had “involvement” with a prostitute in Cartagena, and the entire unit has been called back for the investigation. Prostitution is legal in pockets of Colombia, though the Secret Service considers it inappropriate—and some of the agents were married. In the last year, there were two other incidents with the Secret Service: a murder charge and DUI.

TWISTERS

A tornado hit Norman, home of the University of Oklahoma, Friday, leaving structural damage but no serious injuries. Saturday, more severe weather, specifically a tornado outbreak, is expected for the Pplains. This outbreak is expected to start late in the day and target the I-35 corridor, which includes Oklahoma City and Wichita, Kans. Several funnel clouds have been reported over Oklahoma City, though none have touched down. Forecasters have issued warnings of “life-threatening” storms.

GUN LOVERS UNITE

Mitt Romney failed to touch on the NRA's core issues at the group's annual convention in St. Louis, but he still got a few standing ovations. Newt Gingrich one-upped him by proposing the “Gingrich Doctrine,” a U.N. treaty to give everyone the right to bear arms.

ANTI-CEASEFIRE

Technically, this violates the definition of a “truce.” As the Syrian ceasefire agreement enters day three, the city of Homs has been shelled again. The bombings have reportedly targeted two major hubs, Jouret al-Shiyah and al-Qaradis. The violence comes after 5 were killed Friday after security forces opened fire at a protest. Saturday, the U.N. Security Council is expected to vote again on a resolution to send 30 monitors into the nation.
