Hello to you, I'm Creshon Saunders at the CNN.com newsroom in Atlanta. Here is a look at what's happening NOW IN THE NEWS.
President Obama tells CBS's "60 Minutes" that he is sticking with Treasury 1 Secretary Tim Geithner. Some critics have called for Geithner's resignation over those AIG bonuses you have been hearing about. But even if Geithner tried to resign, the president tells CBS that he'd say "sorry buddy 2, you still got the job." If you wanna check out that interview, it airs tonight.
Conflicting reports this morning about how many Oakland California police officers were killed by a gunman Saturday afternoon. Oakland police say three officers were killed, one is in critical condition and one was treated and released, but California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's office issued a statement this morning saying four officers are dead. The shootings began with a routine traffic stop in which one officer was shot, another wounded. The alleged 3 gunman killed two other officers in a shootout hours later before he too was killed. The suspect, Lovelle Mixon was on parole for assault with a deadly weapon.
Israeli police have foiled a bomb plot, an explosive device was found in a car parked at a crowded shopping mall in the northern town of Haifa. Prime Minister Ehud Olmert warns that terrorists may attempt to strike again during the Jewish Passover.
Supporters of Pakistan's chief justice and of 60 other judges are celebrating their return to the bench. The judges were fired by former President Pervez Musharraf back in 2007. The government's initial reluctance 4 to reinstate them led to a political crisis that threatened to undermine President Asif Ali Zardari.
British reality TV star Jade 5 Goody has died. Goody had cervical cancer and died in her sleep at her home in London early this morning.
