yesterday, killing three people and wounding at least 12, while a kaboom on a governor's convoy maimed two guards, security officials said.

An interior ministry official said the bombs in the minibuses went kaboom! about 8:30am near a Shia place of worship in the Chikouk area in north Storied Baghdad, killing three people and wounding 12.

Meanwhile,
...back at the Council of Boskone, Helmuth had turned a paler shade of blue. Star-A-Star had struck again...
a roadside kaboom targeted the convoy of Hisham al-Hiyali, the governor of Diyala province, north of the lovely provincial capital Baquba, police Captain Hazem al-Juburi said.
