    • Queen celebrates 60 years on throne AP - 7 mins ago
      Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, smiles as she is greeted by wellwishers during a visit to Kings Lynn Town Hall in eastern England Monday, Feb. 6, 2012. It has been 60 years to the day since Britain was shocked by the bulletins: The King is dead; long live the Queen! Eight words encapsulated both the news on Feb. 6, 1952 and the British doctrine of monarchy. It also starkly illustrates why an accession anniversary _ which Queen Elizabeth II marks Monday _ is tinged with sadness for the loss of a reigning monarch. Princess Elizabeth became the queen the moment her 56-year-old father, King George VI, died of a fatal blood clot, apparently soon after he went to bed at 11:30 p.m. the previous night. A servant discovered the lifeless king in his bed at 7:50 a.m. On his death, Elizabeth automatically became queen, but she was at the Treetops resort in Kenya with her husband, Prince Philip.

      Tributes poured in to Queen Elizabeth II on Monday as she marked 60 years on the throne with a message vowing to continue serving the British people.

    • Obama could alter stance of federal appeals courts AP - 5 hrs ago
      In this photo taken Oct. 8, 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court justices pose for a group photo at the Supreme Court in Washington. Three justices will turn 80 before the next presidential term ends: Associate Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, right, who leads the closely divided court's liberal wing, Antonin Scalia, second from left, a conservative, and Anthony Kennedy, second from right, who leans conservative, but on some issues provides a decisive vote for the liberals. A titanic confirmation fight would ensue if it allowed a Republican president to cement conservative control of the court, or a Democrat president to give liberal appointees a working majority for the first time in decades. Others seated are Associate Justice Clarence Thomas, left, and Chief Justice John Roberts, center; standing from left are Associate Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito Jr., and Elena Kagan.

      A second term for President Barack Obama would allow him to expand his replacement of Republican-appointed majorities with Democratic ones on the nation's appeals courts, the final stop for almost all challenged federal court rulings.
