The "New" Indian Rupee
If you saw this blog post from March 2009, The Rachel Maddow Show did a story on how the Indian Rupee has no international symbol like the dollar, pound sterling, or yen. There was a contest to create a new Rupee symbol and the winner and symbol were announced today.
Congratulations Indian Rupee! And welcome to the international community of depressed currencies!

Angostura Bitters
If you're from Trinidad & Tobago or just love drinking, you should be proud of this video from the April 15, 2010 edition of The Rachel Maddow Show. Also, great Champagne Cocktail and Manhattan drink recipes.

Newark, NJ's Remarkable Accomplishment
Living as close to Newark as I do and driving or taking the train through it as often as I do, I've seen not only the parts of Newark that gave it its reputation but also the changes taking place block-by-block, day-by-day. The fact that Newark just completed its first calendar month without a murder is remarkable.
This is a beaten up city that has been the butt of jokes for so many years, including the line from the 1987 film Good Morning, Vietnam, where Robin Williams' character is talking to troops headed into hostile territory and he tells them to be careful because "It's dangerous out there. It's like Newark after dark." (And that is a film set in 1965, a year before the last time Newark went an entire calendar month without a homicide.)
Newark Mayor Cory Booker did a number of TV interviews recently, including those MSNBC interviews posted below from The Rachel Maddow Show and Morning Joe.
