Thank you WSJ for the second time this week.  Earlier you gave us Video of the bomb in the Moscow airport, tagged also with a story on pet grooming.  Today we have Video of Egypt rioting, tagged also with snowboarding in NYC!  Well we can probably all agree it is nice to be in America offered those alternatives.

Arab Unrest Spreading

Protests Rock Yemen; Opposition Leader Returns to Egypt

The day’s events extended a mood of astonishment that has taken hold in the region over the past two weeks. Suddenly, Arab regimes long viewed as invulnerable are being challenged.

WSJ’s Matt Bradley reports on Egyptian violence shutting down stock markets, and the possibility of the collapse of the Egyptian government.

Also, John Shipman on S&P downgrading Japan’s debt. And, video of kids snowboarding on the streets of NYC.  Please, do these two stories belong together?
