The Iraqi News Agency (http://www.uruklink.net/iraqnews/eindex.htm) web
site, and other servers I've been checking, appear to be reachable again.
It may have just been "normal" network flakiness.

CNN.COM is still running in breaking news mode, but other major news sites
have switched back to their "big" pages.  Advertisements and pop-ups seem
to coming back on news sites.

Matrix systems shows a slight latency increase overnight, but has returned
normal levels.
