Headline of the day: Bush Loses Spanish Election

Coalition Casualties: Perhaps the most comprehensive catalogue of military and civilian casualties.

Mentally ill troops: UPI reports that the Army "inappropriately" and knowingly deployed troops diagnosed with mental problems to Iraq.

Geek draft: The government is laying the groundwork for a potential draft of computer and language specialists.

Master of illusions: Creating the illusion that the president is accessible to the press and that reporters think his Medicare reforms are a smashing-good improvement, the Bush administration has hired actors to portray journalists in new local-market TV spots dubbed "video press releases."
