The Caucasus 2009 war games are being seen by many experts as a direct threat to nearby Georgia, where the government says it has rearmed armed forces and where NATO recently wrapped up its own exercises. Experts say the exercises may also be a signal to the United States that Russia will give no ground in its efforts to maintain its sphere of influence in Georgia and other former Soviet republics. The exercise runs through July 6

WEATHER SATELLITE SENT INTO SPACE — A SOPHISTICATED NEW WEATHER SATELLITE IS ON ITS WAY TO ORBIT. AN UNMANNED ROCKET CARRYING THE NATION'S LATEST GEOSTATIONARY OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL SATELLITE BLASTED OFF FROM CAPE CANAVERAL EARLY SATURDAY EVENING. THE SATELLITE IS HEADED TO A 22,000-MILE-HIGH ORBIT, WHERE IT WILL UNDERGO SIX MONTHS OF TESTING. IT WILL CIRCLE EARTH AS A SPARE AND BE CALLED INTO SERVICE WHEN NEEDED. Texas will shift convicts — Texas prison officials say they plan to cancel contracts to house as many as 1,900 state convicts in county lockups because the number of convicts in state prisons has fallen. Prison officials plan to move the convicts now housed in county lockups back into state prisons by the end of August. Ninth body discovered — Hours after a tractor-trailer slammed into stopped traffic on a northeast Oklahoma turnpike, tow trucks dislodged the rig from a crushed car to find the body of a ninth victim inside the mangled wreckage. Eight adults and one child died Friday in the accident that left twisted metal and debris strewn across the highway and stranded miles of traffic in scorching heat for hours. Reunion in Chicago — Chicago police officers who worked during the 1968 Democratic National Convention held a reunion Friday night. "I was just looking to see who's still alive," joked retired patrolman Jeff Norris. Many spoke with pride about how they conducted themselves in clashes with protestors. "We were doing what we were supposed to do," said John Murray, 62, a retired detective. "No regrets." Gulls die in Cleveland — Hundreds of gulls were killed or maimed in Cleveland after what investigators believe was cooking oil spewed from a sewer pipe into the Cuyahoga River. Investigators said Friday that several hundred gallons of the substance killed or disabled hundreds of gulls near the Kingsbury Run tributary. Mayor is found naked — Mark Musselwhite, 43, the former mayor of Gainesville, Ga., was charged with public indecency after Department of Natural Resources officers found him sitting nude at his campsite. Officers had received a complaint about a naked man walking along a nearby road. Musselwhite said it was not him.
