Return to Story IndexG-8 SUMMIT
NORTHERN IRELAND TODAY. THE G-8 MEETING WILL ALSO INCLUDE PRIVATE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT TRADE, AND THE EMBARRASSING REVELATION THAT THE U.S. AND GREAT BRITAIN SPIED ON COUNTRIES DURING OTHER SUMMITS. Before heading to the G-8 SUMMIT, President Obama told a gathering of young people in BELFAST, Northern Ireland that their country - which has now seen more than a decade of peace - serves as a blueprint for ending conflicts around the world. Obama-SOT- YOU SET AN EXAMPLE FOR THOSE WHO SEEK A PEACE OF THEIR OWN.// YOU ARE THEIR PROOF OF WHAT'S POSSIBLE. What Mr. Obama also hopes is possible is finding a way to end the Syrian civil war. It will be the main focus of what's likely to be a very tense sit down between President Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin later today at the G-8. PRESIDENT OBAMA SAYS Syrian President Bashar al Assad MUST GO. But Putin doesn't want the international community interfering in the Syrian civil war . The Russian President does, however, support peace talks between Assad's regime and the opposition forces. British Prime Minister David Cameron has already met with Putin. British PM David Cameron-SOT- PRESIDENT PUTIN AND I HAVE DISCUSSED HOW WE CAN USE THE G8 TO BRING NEW MOMENTUM AND LEADERSHIP TO START NEGOTIATIONS TO DELIVER A TRANSITIONAL GOVERNMENT TO KEEP SYRIA INTACT AND TO STOP THE KILLING. But Putin is not happy with President Obama's decision to supply the rebel fighters WITH SMALL arms AND AMMUNITION. On the eve of the summit, Putin called the Syrian opposition forces - IN HIS WORDS - cannibals. President Obama HAS ALREADY spokeN with several European heads of state about the Syrian conflict, the beginning of many conversations about how to end THE bloody CIVIL war THERE

IF ONE COMPANY HAS ITS WAY.....WISHING YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS A HAPPY BIRTHDAY COULD BE EXPENSIVE. NO MR. PRESIDENT. DON'T DO IT. NOT THAT SONG. NOT ANOTHER WHITE HOUSE CONTROVERSY. WAIT STOP.

"Happy birthday....." OR 112,630 EUROS FOR THOSE WHO ONCE DARED TO SING TO FORMER POPE BENEDICT HAD THEY BEEN CHARGED. THAT'S THE COST FOR THE UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THOSE 16 LITTLE WORDS, ACCORDING TO WARNER/CHAPPELL MUSIC, WHICH CLAIMS IT OWNS THE RIGHTS TO HAPPY BIRTHDAY. predecessors of Warner-Chappell, at some point didn't think themselves was protected by copyright. But then maybe they saw an opportunity." NOW ONE DOCUMENTARY COMPANY IS TRYING TO CHALLENGE THAT, FILING A LAWSUIT THURSDAY TO HAVE THE SONG RETURNED TO THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. "The arrangements are certainly still under protection, but nobody plays those particular piano arrangements when they play 'Happy Birthday' so that's not economically significant." WARNER/CHAPPELL HAVE THEIR REASONS FOR FIGHTING...2 MILLION IN FACT. THAT IS HOW MUCH THEY MAKE--2 MILLION DOLLARS EVERY YEAR ON THE SONG. IT'S WHY SO MANY TV SHOWS AND MOVIES GO TO RIDICULOUS ENDS TO NOT SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVEN THOUGH THEY MEAN HAPPY BIRTHDAY. FROM THE THREE STOOGES..... .....TO TWO BROKE GIRLS WHO'D BE EVEN MORE BROKE IF THEY DIDN'T TRY THIS VERSION. EVEN MR. ROGERS...... EVEN MR. ROGERS!!!!

AND, THE SPURS TAKE GAME FIVE AND NOW LEAD THE SERIES 3 TO 2 OVER THE HEAT. (WITH HEADLINE SPORTS, I'M___) Final Round of the U.S. Open. Phil Mickelson started the day with the lead but would falter. He had a couple of early double-bogeys and three bogeys down the stretch and finished with a 74. That would open the door for Justin Rose. He shot a EVEN round 70 and would have the lead headed into the final holes. Mickelson needed a birdie on the final hole to force a playoff. He misses it. Rose wins his first career Major. Mickelson finishes tied for second. Its the sixth time that he finishes runner-up at the U.S. Open. Game Five of NBA Finals is now a best-of-three series. San Antonio took control early in this one and never let up. Danny Green had a record-setting night. He hit six three-pointers Sunday night giving him 25 for the Series. The old record was 22 held by Ray Allen. Green finished with 24 points. Manu Ginobili got his first start of the season and had 24 points and 10 assists. LeBron and Wade each scored 25 but it wasn't enough as the Spurts win 114-104. They lead the 3-2 as the Series shifts back Miami. Game Six is Tuesday. The A's continue to suprise in the A-L West. They belted four homeruns and cruised pass the Mariners 10-2. John Donaldson and Seth Smith hit back-to-back homers in the 7th; Brandon Moss and Josh Reddick went deep in the 8th. Oakland has a three game lead in the division. Nascar was in Michigan for the Quicken Loans 400. With 50 laps to go Greg Biffle took the lead. With three laps to go points leader Jimmie Johnson was running second, but gets a flat tire and he is done. Biffle would hold on a take the checkered; his second win at this race in as many years. This was the 1,000th win for Ford on Nascar's three national series.
