Panda Update

The baby panda born at the National Zoo some ten days ago appears to doing well. Although several cubs were born to a previous pair back in the 80's, none lived more than a few days, so the current newborn's longevity is a good sign.

The little one doesn't have a name yet, and according to Chinese tradition, panda cubs aren't named until they are 100 days old.

Don't be surprised, however, if Republicans in Congress introduce a bill to name it after Ronald Reagan.
