News in Pictures August 6 - 12

Advanced Photoshop Pictures Contest - 10 image entries

Contest Directions:

Create images of something that happened in the news during August 6 - 12, 2007. Here's an example of a recent news story that could be used. Since this week, the US government has a special authority to eavesdrop on the telephone calls and e-mails of citizens, businesses, and organisations without a warrant, after President Bush signed a law allowing the government to do so. It seems that eavesdropping goes back to the ancient times. Adam was the first Eavesdropper.
In the Author's Comments, it is mandatory to link to a news story. You should use this format to make a link: [URL="http://www.SomeNewsLink.com"] news title [/URL]

To be forgiven, Nico dresses up in american clothes and does some party tricks with billiard balls.
George roasted some politically correct weenies, but Nicolas' kids Bratwursts were wasted.
