Mubarak Steps Down!

If you haven't heard yet President Hosni Mubarak has officially stepped down and has retreated to his estate at Sharm el-Sheik, on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula. 

Meanwhile power has been handed down to the Egyptian Military, hopefully temporarily:

CAIRO - President Hosni Mubarak resigned Friday and handed power to the Egyptian military, setting off wild celebrations among protesters across the country who had demanded his ouster for the last 18 days.

When the announcement by Vice President Omar Suleiman was broadcast in Cairo's Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the protets, pandemonium broke out as huge throngs of demonstrators realized they had achieved their goal.
