There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Some in the military leadership may question the wisdom of a transfer of power to a young four-star general with little military experience, said John Garver, professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs. "His position must be very weak...What do the generals think? We don't know." Garver was commenting on the announcement from the ruling Central Committee of North Korea naming Kim Jong Il's youngest son as successor to the deceased dictator.
