Hi, how are you? I'm Richard Lui at the CNN Center in Atlanta. And we got a look now what's happening NOW IN THE NEWS for you.


Voters in Oregon and Kentucky they are weighing in tomorrow on who should be the Democratic Party's presidential nominee 2. And polls where they show Barack Obama leading Hillary Clinton in Oregon. Clinton is expected to do very well in Kentucky. She says she will remain in the race until the final primary, but most pundits 4 feel her chances of catching 5 Obama at this moment virtually impossible.


Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee coming out and saying he wants to be Senator John McCain's running mate. And in an interview yesterday, the former Arkansas governor says it would be up to McCain to decide what's best for his candidacy.


Senator Ted 3 Kennedy appears to be out of "immediate 6 danger" after suffering a seizure 7 during the weekend. Doctors say he'll undergo a test during the next couple of days, but preliminary tests show he did not suffer a stroke. The Massachusetts Democrat 1 was rushed to the hospital Saturday morning.


Well, firefighters, battling a raging wildfire in Florida's Everglades, now have about a third of it contained. But just look at that! We are concerned here about the protective species of bird as well whose only home is in the Glades(先说的是glade,然后用rather改成glades). 36, 000 acres of the wetlands have burnt already. The fire has sent a haze 8 of smoke across parts of South Florida.


It took a prince to loosen Iron Man's grip on the box office. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian debuted 9 No. 1 this weekend, taking in nearly 57 million smackers. Iron Man slumped 10 to second following to the Sword, I guess. But they will both likely give way to Indiana Jones by next weekend. The archaeologist and adventurer returns to U. S. silver screen Thursday in "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull 11" after his decades. Can he still walk?


Those are the headlines at this hour. Stay with CNN for more on these stories and the other news of the day.
