I am going to come back at 4 o'clock today because there is something going on. With all the people talking about the atrocities in Libya and throughout the Middle East, there is one more atrocity that is taking place right now in a country called Cote D'Ivoire in West Africa.

I want to come back and talk about that, but I am going to do that sometime around 4 o'clock this afternoon. ____________________
