Today in the US Congress,

...over a controversial

security funding bill.

If passed, the measure,

known as Senate Bill 2330...

...will authorize the NSA to upgrade...

...its current surveillance

technology worldwide.

What kind of special rates do

you have this weekend?

We're offering a

half-price rate, sir.

Thanks a lot.

And in the US Congress today...

...controversial Senate Bill 2330

failed by a single vote.

NSA Director Raymond Burke...

...an outspoken advocate forthe upgrade

was not available for comment.

And we're getting breaking news

now out of Bangkok, Thailand.

It seems Global Skies

...crashed in a small town outside

Bangkok shortly aftertakeoff.
