Just a few key events this week:

I hate to hear about all of the bad things going on with the economy, racism, inequality,etc...so let me focus on 3 good things that have happened so far this week:

-Judge Sonia Sotomayor was confirmed, becoming the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice ever in the history of the United States.

-A report was released today, revealing that the number of jobless claims in many states have gone down recently, showing that the economy is slowly getting better.

-North Korea pardoned American journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee, who had been captured since March, with an interjection from Mr.Bill Clinton.

..3 things is enough to make me smile in comparison to what seems like a million negative reports I hear on a daily...well, hourly basis.
