Two women arrested for KISSING in a Mall -- they could have been sisters, no? "Secret report" urges new Afganistan plan. EEOC struggles with huge workload, diminished staff. Drugmaker paid rivals to withhold generic, agency says..

Obama faults FDA on food safety. Motorola loses 3.6 BILLION, suspends dividend, CFO exits. Macy's cuts 7000 jobs - and dividend. Zimbabwe Cholera crisis "worsening". Gunmen attack Athens police station.
