What Kind Of Day Has It Been

• Light Sweet Crude is up $7.87 to $94.07 today on the New York Mercantile Exchange.


• The UN Security Council has gone into a closed session to address Libya. No word on results of that meeting yet.


• The 40 year old Iranian frigate and support ship passed through the Suez today. The Israelis are staying mum after making quite a lot of noise last week.


• Raymond Davis, the American being held by Pakistan over the killing of two Pakistanis, looks to be a private security contractor hired (though not employed) by the CIA. Color me unsurprised. 


• Protests continue in Wisconsin. The Dropkick Murphys have released early a song off their forthcoming album in solidarity with the Workers.
