Egyptian president Mubarak resigns

For those following events in Egypt, here's a link to our latest AP story, which says Hosni Mubarak has  resigned as president and handed control to the military today after 29 years in power, bowing to a historic 18-day wave of pro-democracy demonstrations by hundreds of thousands. “The people ousted the president,” chanted a crowd of tens of thousands outside his presidential palace in Cairo.
