South Sudan and the United Nations

Happy Friday!

We'll take one more day to revel in the birth of a new nation.  This link leads to a video of South Sudan being accepted into the United Nations.  One more hopeful step.

Next week, we'll get back to the details, the tough decisions and the long road ahead  for North and South Sudan.

And, two bits of blog housekeeping:  

First, I'd like to send a huge thanks out to Sarah Martinez who has provided great links, information and work towards keeping this blog going. Sarah, you rock!  And I'd like to welcome Kimberly Woods who will be working with me on blog research from here. Yay! Welcome Kim.

Second, please send me your thoughts on what you'd like to see on the blog. Our friend Xavier said he wanted to know more about what Naomi is doing, and our friend Kim said she'd like to hear about day-to-day things like how many bones we have and what's going on in the office.  I was thinking of profiling our interns, volunteers and some of the artists that work with us. You?  What do you want to know about? This blog is a work in progress so PLEASE, let me know.
