The US forced Taiwan's Premier to call off a planned visit to Kosovo because of impatience with Taipei's diplomatic moves that have heightened tensions with Beijing, according to a report. Washington even threatened to send Nato forces to block Vincent Siew Wan-chang if he tried to enter the war-torn Yugoslav province on Wednesday during his trip to neighbouring Macedonia, Taiwan's United Evening News said. Taiwanese officials refused to comment on the report.

Cody, You must admit that the "Albanian solution" to the medicare problem is pretty effective. For those of you who might have just checked in, the Albanian solution to the medicare problem goes like this: 1) Tie hands of retired Serb behind head. 2) Pull trigger. Of course if you don't want blood to stain the walls because of the new Albanian family that is moving in later in the day, follow proceedure #2; 1) Hold head of Serbian retiree under water. 2) Move in Albanian family. Of course, if the Serb is under 65 years of age and female, the usual solution follows; 1) Rape woman. 2) Repeat. -John
