+ That photo’s a generic “buried treasure” shot, but this group from Tampa found $500 million in coins aboard the “Black Swan.” Amazing. [cnn]
+ Apparently, the military realized they needed a reason for that whole “troops can no longer use the Internet” thing. [wired]
+ You’ve still got a couple hours until the big “you can’t afford any of these houses, but you’re welcome to come marvel at how freaking rich we are” auction at the Ritz. [ht]
+ Wolfowitz, in case you didn’t know, is out at the World Bank. Next up? I say the U.N. [nyt]
+ Then again, he’s gonna get $375,000 for his fine work, so maybe he’ll take a little break, live off his ladyfriend for a while. I hear she’s doing pretty well. [huffpo]
