Ireland's Worst Air Disaster occurred today when a small two-seater Cessna 152 plane crashed into a cemetery early this afternoon outside Limerick. <br /><br />Local search and rescue workers have recovered 300 bodies so far and expect that number to climb as digging continues into the evening.

"What enabled women here to achieve this reversal of roles?" <br /><br />The Kuwaiti woman replied, "Land mines."
