An-ti-ci-pa-tion...is almost over for two big Alaska stories.


***********UPDATE**********
Mayor Begich has formed an exploratory committee into running for Senate!
***************************

Mayor Begich will be hosting a 10:30am news conference at his home to announce whether or not he's going to run against Ted Stevens.

I hope that I know which way he's going!


Also, a huge decision for Alaska is being taken up by the Supreme Court today. It will determine whether or not Exxon will finally have to pay 33,000 Alaskans the $2.5 billion they were court-ordered to pay 14 years ago in the wake of the 1989 Exxon Valdez Oil Spill.

The defense presented their argument this morning with the plaintiffs argument coming later. The Court will have a ruling by June.

I guess the prediction is for a 4/4 split which would release the $2.5 billion to the plaintiffs.
