Lots of good news, actually.

Russia is to deploy new missiles in a Baltic enclave near Nato member Poland, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev says.
Short-range Iskander missiles in the Kaliningrad region would "neutralise" the planned US anti-missile shield in Poland and the Czech Republic, he said.
The US says its shield is a defence against missiles from "rogue" nations, but Moscow sees it as a direct threat.
Mr Medvedev also said he wanted to extend Russia's presidential term to six years from the current four.
He did not explain if he wanted to extend his own term, or change the rules for his successor.
There has long been speculation that Mr Medvedev is a stop-gap so that Prime Minister Putin - who served the maximum two consecutive terms - can return to the top job, correspondents say.
'Conceited' US policy
In his first state-of-the nation address, Mr Medvedev said Moscow would deploy the Iskander missile system in the Kaliningrad region - between Nato members Lithuania and Poland - to "neutralise - if necessary - the [US] anti-missile system".

Six Palestinians were killed in Gaza on Tuesday, in the first Israeli-Palestinian confrontation since the two sides agreed to a truce nearly five months ago.
Israeli troops and Palestinian militants clashed in a fierce gun battle along the Israel-Gaza border, killing one Palestinian gunman and wounding three others. Hours later, five Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike.
All the dead were members of the Hamas Islamist group which controls the coastal enclave. Residents identified Mazen Seada, a senior Hamas commander in central Gaza, as one of the men who was killed.
The Israeli military said it entered the coastal Gaza Strip area in a covert operation to detonate a tunnel 250m inside Gaza that militants planned to use to abduct Israeli soldiers. The army claimed that the operation did not violate the truce, calling it a “legitimate step” to isolate immediate threats to Israel from Gaza
