THE WONDERS OF LIGHT RAIL
Due to a truck hitting a train signal at SW 12th and Yamhill, MAX Red and Blue line train service in both directions has been disrupted. Shuttle buses are carrying riders between Galleria/SW 10th Ave and Kings Hill/SW Salmon St stations. Riders traveling through downtown and throughout the system may experience significant delays.

Due to mechanical problems, a train is stuck in the Robertson Tunnel. Shuttle buses are carrying riders between the Galleria/SW 10th Street Station and Sunset Transit Center. Riders on the westside and downtown may experience significant delays until service can be restored.

OBAMA THREATENS FREE SPEECH!
The website CNet is reporting internet companies and civil liberties groups are alarmed over a Senate bill that appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector telecommunications and internet networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency. A Senate source familiar with the bill compared the president’s power to take control of portions of the internet to what President Bush did when grounding all aircraft on September 11, 2001.
JAPAN THROWS OUT THE CONSERVATIVES!
Voters in Japan have ousted the conservative Liberal Democratic Party, ending fifty-five years of nearly uninterrupted rule. In elections on Sunday, the populist Democratic Party of Japan captured a record 308 of the 480 seats in the lower house of parliament. It was the worst election performance for the conservative Liberal Democratic Party since the party was founded in 1955. One analyst described the vote as a bloodless revolution, the first transfer of power from one party to another in postwar Japan. Democratic Party leader Yukio Hatoyama is expected to become Japan’s new prime minister. He is a longtime critic of Japan’s close relationship to the United States.
MAJOR ERROR ON THE MAX TICKET TRANSFERS! POLICY REMAINS UNCHANGED!
Al, I just posted this on the Yahoo page too. The text about trading in a MAX ticket for a transfer was a typo in the first printing of the Green Line pamphlet. It has been reprinted to say: "To transfer to a bus, just show the operator your validated MAX ticket as you board."
I talked with the Creative Services department to make sure this error doesn't appear anywhere else.
