:: NEWS COCKTAIL aka BlahBlahBlog ::

"Everything is being compressed into tiny tablets. You take a little pill of news every day - 23 minutes - and that's supposed to be enough." -Walter Cronkite, RE TV news. The Web has changed that for many, however, and here is an extra dose for your daily news cocktail. This prescription tends to include surveillance and now war-related links, along with the occasional pop culture junk and whatever else seizes my attention as I scan online news sites.

:: "Experts fear ‘Scream’ suffered lasting damage" ::

Edvard Munch masterpiece stolen 2 years ago may be too damaged to fix
msnbc.com

OSLO, Norway - Experts fear that theft damage to Edvard Munch’s painting “The Scream,” one of the world’s most famous images, may be too extensive to completely repair, according to a report to be released Friday.

The painting and another Munch masterpiece, “Madonna” were recovered by police in August, two years after they were stolen from Oslo’s Munch Museum by masked gunmen in a brazen daylight heist on Aug. 22, 2004. Police have refused to say how they recovered the artworks, or where they had been for the two years.

After extensive study, museum experts are turning over a 200-page assessment to Oslo police, which, among other things, expresses concern about moisture damage to a swath of “The Scream.”
