Knut!

Lots of serious stuff in the news today. As usual, feel free to post links to the stories that interest you--I've added a few links to my shared items here. And there are some new posts at the Independent Bloggers' Alliance as well.

But for the front page here, I decided I'd much prefer to end the day with this adorable picture of Knut the polar bear, via Cute Overload.
