Photo of the Week: Because No One Should Read Too Much on New Year's Eve

A million thanks to Mike McCarthy and Amanda Hahnel, our two fabulous interns who provided you with news and analysis on this blog this fall. You're likely to still see a few pieces from them pop up in 2010, as they did more work than we had days to fill. They will be missed!

I'm skipping the news today - there is not much on the natural security front, but enough other important news for the nation to keep you all busy. If I see anything good today, I'll Tweet and Facebook it for you. We'll be taking tomorrow off to recover, so we'll see you all next Monday. Happy New Year!
