Hello and welcome, I'm Christina Park at the CNN world headquarters in Atlanta, with a look at what's happening NOW IN THE NEWS.

Another day of violence in Iraq, a suicide bomber slammed his car into a police checkpoint, killing five police officers. That explosion happened in Samarra, north of Baghdad.

South of the capital in the city of Diwaniya, the US military says warplanes attack suspected insurgents armed with rocket-propelled grenades. For a second day, there's a fierce fighting between US and Iraqi forces as well as Shiite gunmen in the city.

And Monica Goodling, the counselor to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has stepped down. She gave no reason, but she recently refused to testify before Congress, which is investigating the Administration's decision last year to fire eight US prosecutors.

In the meantime, the pet food recall is expanding yet again. This time it includes dog biscuits sold under the Sunshine brands and private-labels marketed by Wal-mart under the Ol'Roy brand. Test showed the wheat gluten in the biscuits was contaminated with melamine, a chemical used to make plastics and other industrial products.

And the day before Easter, a fire swept through the St. Anne Catholic Church in New Castle, Indiana. Fire officials say it broke out just before eight this morning, local time. Firefighters had it under control 3.5 hours later. Officials say damage is extensive.

Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. You're seeing snow flurries falling over metro Atlanta, all part of the wacky weather in parts of our country right now.

And in Cleveland last night, the snow was so heavy. Officials called off the baseball game between the Indians and Seattle Mariners. The main reason, players just couldn't see the ball.

And those are your headlines making news at this hour. For more on what's happening around the world, tune in to CNN TV, or just log on to CNN.com. But don't forget you can also get your updates through your wireless gadget as well anytime day or night. I'm Christina Park. Thanks for watching.
