Catching up on the news - online

Been busy this semester? Not enough time to keep up with current events? Over the winter break it should be a little quieter, and maybe there'll be some time for the news. Here's some good online sites you may not have visted before. It's cold out there, so make some hot chocolate, get comfortable at your PC, and surf away!

• Times of London: get the news from the UK counterpart to our NY Times!
• International Herald Tribune: news from an international perspective.
• The Onion: if the regular news gets too dreary, have a little fun at The Onion!
