*Russia turned off its as supplies to Europe via a Ukrainian pipeline. What does this mean? Rich Russians are mad at rich Ukrainians... so, not much.

*Obama said today that reforms to entitlement programs (ie social security and medicare) will be part of balancing the budget. Pretty bold statement considering how sacred those programs are; we'll see how that goes.

*The state we can all spell, Mississippi, now has the highest teen pregnancy rate. For the prize they knocked off Texas and New Mexico in a heated contest for the honor.
