Here's what happened on September 28, 2004:

• North Korea Announces Nuclear Weapons Production North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Su-hon made a significant announcement at the UN General Assembly, revealing that North Korea has converted plutonium from 8,000 spent fuel rods into nuclear weapons. The stated purpose was to create a deterrent against potential U.S. nuclear threats. Six-nation talks on the nuclear issue were suspended, with analysts believing North Korea intentionally paused negotiations until after the U.S. presidential election in November.
• Potential Human-to-Human Avian Flu Transmission Detected Thai health officials reported a potential case of human-to-human transmission of the H5N1 avian influenza strain. The World Health Organization clarified that transmission occurred only after prolonged contact. Experts warned that a more easily transmissible version of the virus could potentially trigger a global pandemic similar to the devastating 1918 Spanish flu.
• Oil Prices Reach Historic High The US light crude oil price briefly surpassed USD 50 per barrel, marking the highest price since 1983. Analysts attributed the significant price increase to multiple factors, including disruptions in Nigerian oil production, ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Saudi Arabia, and the destructive impact of Hurricane Ivan.
• Bush's Hometown Newspaper Endorses Kerry In a surprising political development, the Crawford, Texas Lone Star Iconoclast newspaper endorsed Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, despite having supported President George W. Bush in the previous election. The editorial urged Texan voters to evaluate Kerry based on his vision for the country, not his hometown.
• Strong Earthquake Strikes California A significant earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 was recorded near Parkfield, California. The seismic event's effects were felt across a wide area, extending beyond Santa Ana and Sacramento, highlighting the region's geological activity.
• 2004 Summer Paralympics Conclude The 2004 Summer Paralympics in Athens, Greece, concluded with China, Great Britain, and Canada emerging as the top performers in terms of gold medal count. The event celebrated athletic excellence among Paralympic athletes from around the world.
