The Swiss' hands are just as dirty as the rest of ours. Switzerland is a lovely country and the people are fantastic, but I'm not sure where we got the idea of it being the home of clock-making saints.

And adorned with gold!

in country now that first nuclear plant up.TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran said Wednesday it is making the search for new uranium deposits in the country a top priority now that it has started up its first in a planned network of nuclear power plants.

The head of Iran's atomic energy agency did not explain why Iran was intensifying the exploration at home. Tehran has in the past denied its uranium stockpile was running low, as some international nuclear experts have concluded.

There is a theory/legend that the Templar Knights who managed to escape the purge of their order in 1307 fled through the mountains into what would become Switzerland.

I do find it interesting that the Swiss eventually became pretty well known for the two things the Templars were extremely good at.

(The other thing would be banking, lol.)

TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran's state TV says authorities have detained an Asian reporter for asking suspicious questions about the country's disputed nuclear program.

The report did not identify the reporter by name or nationality. His two Iranian assistants were also detained.

The report says the journalist asked people in Tehran for their views on whether Iran's nuclear program had a military dimension and on Iran's relations with Russia.

Monday's report said their case was sent to the judiciary.
