Whenever we went on long trips when I was a boy, we played the license plate game where you try to find a license plate on the passing cars from every state. Going to D.C. you would think we would have a pretty good chance of bagging them all.
Here are the plates we got. Can you name the ones we missed? Seems like a BCS problem of representation as well.

Baby Blessing and the Nobel Prize
So for those of you who follow these sort of things, you may know that the 2010 Nobel Prize in Medicine went to Robert Edwards for developing in vitro fertilization.
Which seems especially appropriate this year because my little sister and her husband, who have been trying to have a baby for ten years, were finally able to have a beautiful little girl thanks to their third try at IVF.
So we packed the girls up in the minivan and made a whirlwind trip up to Indy to participate in the baby blessing this Sunday.
