What made the news on Wednesday

This seems to be the first time the picture has come up on the screen so quickly. The picture is just some small waves taken in the evening. It is a peaceful looking picture. Speaking of peaceful, I slept through Bush's farewell address to the nation. I missed the final " My fellow Americans" statement. Mom said his speech had no content. He said nothing according to my mom. I did read he defended his record as President and wished the new guy good luck. I don't think he mentioned about the air rescue of the jet which went down in the Hudson River. This event seemed to overshadow all other events of the evening. The news media has been calling it a miracle how all the passengers were able to get out of the plane alive and in pretty good shape. The plane went down into the Hudson River where it was close to ferry boats and did not hit any other boat when it reached water. The pilot and the crew have been praised by city officials for their efforts in saving the passengers.
