For those of you whose appetite is whetted simply by all of this, there is copies of henrys most recent book on world order available for a reasonable price outside. He and i will have a conversation for a bit, and then well open it up to you, our members. And theres one othe

Traffic. Good morning guys. Reporter we have a batch of showers creeping up the coast from the south that will push in parts of the region later this morning and more showers out to the west that will pop in this afternoon.

Be careful of that. Scattered showers cant be ruled out in the morning commute.
