"This historic moment comes at a time of great uncertainty for many Americans. We have now been through nearly a decade of war. We have endured a long and painful recession. And sometimes in the midst of these storms, the future that we are trying to build for our nation - a future of lasting peace and long-term prosperity - may seem beyond our reach"
Barack Obama
US President Obama was making a national address Tuesday to mark the end of the combat mission in Iraq

bullet 'UFO' spotted over Lake Erie corner

Eugene Erlikh from Ohio says he has spotted a UFO over Lake Erie and believes that it's proof we're not alone.

"Absolutely nothing we have on this earth even looks like that," Fox News quoted Erlikh as saying.

The man says that the unexplained lights appeared outside his house in Euclid over five nights.

"It was such a brilliant beam of different lights, it was going red, yellow, green, blue. It was never the same colour it was always, like it was pulsating," he said.

The U.S. and Canadian Coast Guard and several local police departments did not receive any additional reports of sightings. (ANI)


bullet Buffalo Breeze corner
The Buffalo Breeze is essentially a local Buffalo newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for Buffalo, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.

The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.

We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.

Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.

We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of Buffalo, New York, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the Buffalo Breeze.
