Vladimir Putin set to bait US with nuclear aid for Tehran - Times Online
Note:
Hardliners were infuriated last week by the visit to Georgia of Dick Cheney, the American vice-president. “Georgia will be in our alliance,” Cheney said. He also visited Ukraine, whose Nato aspirations could make it the next flashpoint between Russia and America. However in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital, events appeared to be moving Moscow’s way. Viktor Yushchenko, the pro-western president, is fighting to stay in power in a crisis that could see him impeached. “I’m amused by claims in the West that Russia is the loser in this crisis,” said a former Putin aide. “What would Washington do if we were arming Cuba the way it armed Georgia? The postSoviet days when we could be pushed around are over.”

Sarkozy Says Iran Takes `Major Risk,' May Cause Israeli Attack
Note:
Sept. 4 (Bloomberg) -- French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Iran is taking a ``major risk'' in developing a nuclear program that may provoke an attack by Israel. ``Iran is taking a major risk in continuing its process of obtaining nuclear weapons, which we are certain is happening,'' Sarkozy said today in Damascus, Syria. ``One day, whatever the Israeli government is, we can imagine ourselves one morning with an Israel which would have attacked. That would be a disaster.''

iPod nano 4G case found -- matches the Kevin Rose nano
Note:
Our spicy, siesta loving friends over at Engadget Spanish just nabbed a hands-on with Hamas iPod nano 4G case on the floor of IFA. The tip came in anonymously about an hour ago and sure enough, there it is, buried in a mountain of iPod accessories and sharing the same smooth arc of the Kevin Rose nano -- as it will from henceforth be known.

Crude oil tumbles to five-month low - losing 1/3 of its price since June 2008
Note:
NEW YORK, Sept. 2 (Xinhua) -- Crude oil tumbled to a five-month low Tuesday morning as traders shifted their concern from Hurricane Gustav to dampening global demand.
As Hurricane Gustav appeared to leave the Gulf of Mexico unscathed and producers prepared to restart oil production, traders shifted their focus more on the slowing global demand for crude.
The U.S. Energy Department's Energy Information Administration Chief Guy Caruso predicted that the crude oil price "could" fall below 100 dollars a barrel in the next 18 months due to a slowing global demand and an increase in oil production.
Light, sweet crude for October delivery dropped 7.51 dollars to107.95 dollars a barrel as of 09:52 EST (1352 GMT) on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The price slid 10 dollars to hit 105.46 dollars in the early morning pre-session electronic trading, the lowest since April 2.
