"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 Miranda Kerr shows off baby bump in skincare ad corner

Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom's pregnant wife Miranda Kerr has revealed her baby bump in a new advertising campaign for her organic skincare range.

The Aussie model announced her pregnancy news last month (Aug10), just weeks after the couple exchanged vows in a secret ceremony.

The couple has kept a low profile since they confirmed the happy news, reports the Daily Star.

However, Kerr was thrilled to be snapped with her growing bump in an ad for her Kora skincare line.

In the tranquil video, the Victoria's Secret beauty is seen wearing a simple vest and leggings whilst relaxing in a variety of yoga positions. (ANI)

Every minute of every day our news editors canvass the issues, and stories making the news to provide our readers with a broad and in-depth coverage of what's happening in the world.

Our first priority is the state. We specialise in Oregon news. From Eugene to Portland, we're on the lookout day and night to keep track of issues making the news. We also strive to keep abreast of national news.

Breaking stories out of the continental United States usually break first on the Oregon Telegraph. Neighbouring states and key cities too often feature on our news pages.

We also provide a whole lot of other content you'd expect from any newspaper including international sports coverage and local Oregon weather forecasts.

We also provide readers with an opportunity to engage in newsmaking by voting on major stories in the news, and following how other readers are viewing the issues. Our news polls are regularly updated, and attract thousands of voters over each week they're conducted.

Our business writers too work hard to keep you abreast of what's happening in the markets, not only in the U.S. but across the globe. We work around the clock to post stories from major financial centers like Tokyo, Paris, London, and of course New York, where we have extensive coverage of the major indices, particularly the Dow Jones, Nasdaq, S&P and Russell 2000.
