News you may be able to use

First off, Geoff Carter's new bl-g (that one's for you, Geoff) is excellent.

Also, Jeffrey Toobin's New Yorker piece on Barney Frank is fantastic. The magazine's profiles of political figures are so consistently outstanding that I wonder how many other U.S. publications even come close.

And finally, my mom sent me a video of a German meteorologist interacting amusingly with the station's official cat:



Oh, and the Oberlin Stories Project is awesome, too. I hope to contribute sometime soon -- perhaps after I return from my East Coast trip, which starts tomorrow, ends Jan. 26, and includes a side trip to the Inauguration and a stay at Moishe House D.C. I'll be writing about my experience for Jew-ish.com, and likely also here as well. Stay tuned!
