Interesting stories not being covered in the mainstream media

Since the bailout and the Obama presidency are taking all of the headlines, I have decided to post some stories from outside of the normal scope of media coverage. Give your thoughts on them.

Sri Lanka comes closer to ending 20-plus year civil war


Political violence in Venezuela as pro-Chavez forces attack the Vatican's embassy and earlier violence against a synagogue

Farmers protest falling prices in Europe

Floods in Australia wash snakes and crocodiles onto streets

Those are just a few stories that are interesting in this world that are scarcely reported. The flooding in Australia reminds me of the 2002 European floods which drenched large parts of Central Europe.
