:: A Question of Structure

USA Today and the Wall Street Journal's world-wide newsbox lead with, and everyone else fronts, the continuing rescue efforts in Minneapolis, where officials expect to continue retrieving bodies from the Mississippi River through the weekend. As of last night, four people were officially confirmed dead, 79 were injured, and as many as 30 were still missing. By all accounts it seems that several people who drowned in their cars remain underwater as divers had to continually stop their rescue efforts due to strong currents.

The Washington Post leads with word that a federal intelligence court declared that one part of the Bush administration's warrantless eavesdropping program is illegal. This could go a long way to explaining this week's renewed efforts to get Congress to approve an extension of the program. The Los Angeles Times leads with a look at how many fear a plan to target businesses that hire illegal immigrants "could cause serious headaches for millions of U.S. citizens." The New York Times leads with senators voting overwhelmingly in favor of legislation to overhaul ethics and lobbying rules. The White House said the restrictions on earmarks don't go far enough but no one expects the president to veto the bill.

Officials yesterday struggled to explain how Minnesota's busiest bridge could simply collapse (a security camera caught the moment). Contrary to what was said on Wednesday night, the bridge had been classified as "structurally deficient" for 17 years. But that's not as damning as it sounds because one-quarter of U.S. bridges share that classification and, as the Post notes, several recent inspections "provided no indication that the bridge was in danger of imminent failure."
