EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO KNOW about Instapundit. I didn't know he was good with Haiku. And judging from his blogging, I'm not convinced he gets that much sleep.
I'M SURE YOU'VE SEEN the world's most famous photograph, "Earthrise."




























It's been on the cover of TIME and on stamps. But did you know it almost didn't happen? This occurred 45 years ago, Christmas Eve, 1968. Here's the untold story of this iconic shot!

POWERLINE'S WEEK IN PICTURES: Superbowl Edition. My favorite:

MASSACHUSETTS, ObamaCare’s ‘model for the nation’, has longest doctor wait times in America. By a factor of 2-1/2.
HUH? "Snow didn’t paralyze Atlanta. Racism did.”
WHITE HOUSE: Keystone report not final step. As I predicted, the decision-delaying has begun in earnest and my guess is that DOE Secretary Ernest Moniz and EPA Director Gina McCarthy are the 'chosen ones' for incorporation into the pavement under the Obama bus.
PAUL GREENBERG on the State of the Union: All drift, no real direction.


Even the 'big shtick' has been deflated.
BIG SURPRISE: White House doesn’t want its own ‘equal pay’ yardstick used to measure equality of White House pay.
BUT OTHER THAN THAT, IT'S WORKING PERFECTLY: Obamacare Denies Sick Kids the Medical Care They Need.
EVEN THE UNINSURED don't like ObamaCare.
FEMINISM’S TOXIC TWITTER WARS: “Sisterhood is powerful. It kills. Mostly sisters.”

To sort of paraphrase Gloria Steinham, the bicycle pedaled off leaving the pirahanas to feed off themselves.

NEWS TO CELEBRATE: Henry Waxman is retiring! Bonus -- he’s blaming his exit on the Tea Party.

UPDATE: Er, maybe not. ContraceptiveGirl and Georgetown Law 'social justice advocate' Sandra Fluke may be considering running for Waxman's Congressional seat.
NEWT GINGRICH: Freedom to Choose.
JUST HOW “AFFORDABLE” IS THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT? Watch.
THERE'S A REASON a gun has a safety.
