Reading a newspaper you hold in your hands is good. If you don't have time to read an article that looks interesting, you can always clip it for later perusal. So, just in case you missed the following news, here are things that caught my eye this morning.
Our Best Friends...
"In the small world of people who train dogs to sniff cancer, a little-known Northern California clinic has made a big claim: that it has trained five dogs - three Labradors and two Portuguese water dogs - to detect lung cancer in the breath of cancer sufferers with 99 percent accuracy." Read the whole article from the New York Times.
And She Rises...
Lots of women in the news lately.
In Liberia...
Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf took office as Liberia's first elected female president and as Africa's first elected female head of state. Go Ellen!
In Chile...
Michelle Bachelet promises 'understanding, tolerance' as Chile's first woman president.
Let's hope they both get a chance to make a difference. A good difference. My hopes are with both of them.

Did you mean to comment four times? When I first saw that there were four, I got excited that my post elicited so much attention. :-)
