I liked when both Colbert and the Daily Show used Ackbar footage for their stories on the Repubs being invited by the White House to Thursday's health-care meeting.

Family dog a hero after sticking by lost 3-year-old girl through freezing weather
Cops in Arizona are crediting a family dog with saving the life of a lost little girl.
Three-year-old Victoria Bensch wandered away from her family home in Cordes Lakes, Ariz. on Thursday and got lost in the mountains surrounding the valley.
Search parties spent the night looking for the girl as temperatures dipped below 30 degrees.
She was finally spotted 15 hours after she vanished by a helicopter pilot on Friday.
Next to her was Blue, the family's Queensland heeler.
"The dog kept her alert, warm and gave her companionship throughout a very cold night," Dwight D'Evelyn, spokesman for the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office, told The Arizona Republic.
...
The dog was protective of the child when they first approached, but when the girl smiled, the dog relaxed.
"I think once the dog realized we were there to help them out, he was very excited," Uhl said.
"He ran around while the medic tended to the little girl, and when it was time to go, he jumped right into the helicopter and was ready to go."
She was taken to Phoenix Children's Hospital and treated for frostbite, but doctors said she was healthy despite the ordeal.
"We have to give a lot of credit to Blue," the girl's aunt told the Republic.
"He pretty much stayed with her all night."
awww heroic dog story!
My dog peed on his bed at 6 this morning. A different kind of hero, I guess.
My god, these are the most comfortable heels ever. They're precisely as comfortable as flats, at least so far in the day. Most of my heels, there's some difference, once the height is over 3/4". These are a good two inches and there's nothing wonky about them for my delicate princess-and-the-pea feet.
Awww, yay puppy!
ita, what kind of heels are those?
YAY PERKINS. I agree - is shoe time!
is shoe time!
my god, these are the most comfortable heels ever.
What brand?
Aerosoles boots. When they hit, they hit. I do have some others from them that are a bit twingey, but acceptably so. These, nothing.
Huh. Nothing negative and talk of promotion. It's like I had my review with Bizarro boss.
That's good, megan!
Maybe I'll go boot shopping later. Hmmm.
