Hello from Miami!  Here's my web-surfing roundup for the day....

The AP reports "Miami judge rules against Fla. gay adoption ban." Finally, some good news out of Florida! In her ruling Miami Dade Circuit Judge Cindy Lederman ruled Tuesday there was "no rational basis" for prohibiting gays from adopting children. Yay!

From the Washington Post, "A Hard Choice: A young medical student tries to decide if she has what it takes to join the diminishing ranks of abortion providers." As Jezebel highlights from the article, "'Abortion is one of the most common surgical procedures performed on women, yet nobody in medical school even talks about it.' — medical student Lesley Wojick, in a fascinating feature in the WaPo on the education of Ob/Gyns, and the issue of abortion providers, abortions, and the women who have them."

Just ordered some stocking stuffers from Black Ink, a great store in Cambridge.

This has been popping up on a lot of year end gift guides - and I can see why! The Bubble 2009 Calendar!

At left: from Oh Joy, a beautiful blend of wood and gold. I love the combination of natural and shiny....

Jaunted: The Pop Culture Travel Guide.

I like how colorful these pieces from Chromalab are - my goal is to refurbish some old pieces to look like this in the coming months, but we'll see if I'm up to the challenge!
