What's new?

It's been a week since my last post, and much has, or has not, happened in the interval. We have a new President, the first non-white ever to attain that high office. The world's financial problems appear to be deepening. Peace in the Middle East is ever more unreachable. Ceasefires are ignored. California seems to be in for another drought. Its government can't seem to get its act together. Confirmation hearings are going on in Washington for the new President's cabinet. In the face of much bleak news, we had one good uplifting story. A passenger plane crashed into the Hudson River in New York, miraculously with no loss of life, because of the skill of its captain and co-pilot.
