Hi on this Thursday, May 8 2008. I'm Rebecca Field in for Kristin Volk with your UPI top news update. Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton is vowing to keep on fighting. On a campaign stop in West Virginia yesterday, the New York Senator said she'll keep working hard to become the nominee. This comes after Barack Obama won big in North Carolina earlier this week...making it harder for her to challenge his delegate count. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says the races should continue between Clinton and Obama. One UN official says the first major international aid plane has landed in Myanmar. The military regime reportedly allowed a UN airlift with relief supplies, but still won't give visas to aid workers. A U.S. diplomat in the country says the death toll from that catastrophic cyclone may reach 100,000. This NASA satellite photo shows the magnitude of flooding in Myanmar. Looking at that next to a image of the region before the cyclone, you can see how serious the damage is. U.S. gas prices have reached a new record high. AAA's website says the national average for retail gasoline is now at more than 3 dollars and 64 cents for a gallon on unleaded regular gas…passing the earlier record set on May 1. The cost of driving has been soaring lately…motorists pay 20% more for gas than they did just last year. Hundreds of grandparents gathered in Washington DC yesterday to bring attention to their roles as caregivers. The third annual Grandrally brought grandmas, grandpas and other relative caregivers together to celebrate the role of these people in keeping children stable and safe. The event featured a special all star performance by country star Kelly Pickler. That's all for now. Tune in tomorrow for another UPI update. « Less
