UN Security Council Discusses N. Korea's Missile
The United Nations Security Council meets this morning to discuss North Korea's missile launch.
North Korea claims it was trying to launch a satellite but the United States and other nations consider it a test of a long-range missile.
After the launch the media room in North Korea was silent.
A report out of Japan indicated that the launch was unsuccessful.
The United States is not expected to ask for more sanctions against North Korea just continued enforcement of existing sanctions.
New TSA Boarding Pass Technology
The Transportation Security Administration will demonstrate its newest technology at Washington DC's Dulles Airport today.
The new boarding pass and identification authorization is designed to make it easier to discover fake documents at security checkpoints.
Jury Selection Continues in Edwards Trial
Jury selection continues in North Carolina today in former Senator John Edwards' criminal trial.
Edwards is accused of violating campaign finance laws.
Prosecutors say nearly $1 million used to hide his then pregnant mistress Rielle Hunter while he was running for president, amounted to illegal campaign contributions.
The judge emphasized to potential jurors the trial is about campaign finance laws not whether John Edwards was a good husband or a good politician.
