OK, deadline is looming and I need to finish this article. Basically its a review of 2004 from an entertainment and world news perspective. Its in alphabetical order so I've got stuff like Iraq for I, Yasser Arafat for Y, Jacko Paedo Allegations for J, etc. I need something for Z, U and V. Any help?

Zyprexa lawsuit.

U, how about the Ukraine (apparently some election stuff going down there)

V... I think you are in some trouble there can't think of anything offhand right now

Merck withdrew Vioxx from the worldwide market this year. That might help for a "V" thing.

Yeah, I heard about the Vioxx thing. Probably use that instead of Anticors Zyprexa. Just need a Z now...

Ex-top agricultural exporter now importing.

After being Africa's breadbasket for decades, Mugabe's heartlessness towards his people and lust for continued power forces his counry into the clutches of starvation.

But on a bright note, the countries that offered 99 year leases to the ex-Zimbabwean commercial farmers are experiencing huge increases in their agriculture industries.

Who'd have guessed throwing out the major producers in you country and replacing them with people with little or no experience in farming would have such a devestating effect? Oh, wait, everyone but Mugabe and the ZanuPF.
