Oil Slick Fouls Nearly 1,000 Miles of Beaches in Brazil
-------------------------------------------------------

A massive oil slick has fouled more than 900 miles of shoreline along
Brazil's northeastern coast, affecting 46 cities and some of South
America's most popular beaches. Brazil's environmental agency says tests
of the oil show it's not of Brazilian origin. The source of the crude
oil remains unknown.
