Happy birthday, Mr. President. 

Obama turns 51 on Saturday, and he'll celebrate in Chicago with a backyard party. Two supporters will be conveying their birthday wishes face to face, after the Obama campaign offered invitations to the president's party as an incentive to make a donation.

Barack Obama was born Aug. 4, 1961 at Kapiʻolani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital in Honoloulou, Hawaii.

I am happy to know that Mr. Behan's review of "STID" is now available. Might we knowRead More where it is available? Perhaps I am just an Apple lovin' technopeasant, but despite my frantic serial clicking on text without links, I could not find the actual story.
