Try to stay on point, kelvin, or you might have to start ignoring yourself.

Obama to visit oil-slicked Louisiana
President Barack Obama will travel to America's Gulf coast tomorrow for a first hand look at one of the United States' biggest oil spills in decades.
His plans to survey the disaster zone come as weather hampers efforts to contain the spill and stop it from threatening the coastline.
Satellite images show the oil slick has more than tripled in size in just a day.
It is now lingering off Louisiana, dangerously close to some of America's most important ecosystems.

The financial meltdown dramatically showed the dangers of too little government, he said, "when a lack of accountability on Wall Street nearly led to the collapse of our entire economy."
But Obama was direct in urging both sides in the political debate to tone it down. "Throwing around phrases like 'socialists' and 'Soviet-style takeover,' 'fascists' and 'right-wing nut' — that may grab headlines," he said. But it also "closes the door to the possibility of compromise. It undermines democratic deliberation," he said.
