The paps got hold of a picture of a buff and shirtless Barack Obama on Monday. It has created quite a rage.

During the transition, Obama had promised repeatedly that he would hit the ground running, and now it appeared that all along he had been speaking aerobically. Archival photos of the president-elect in his bathing suit during a Hawaiian vacation in August were quickly compared with the new shots, leading to a rare consensus: Obama appears leaner and buffer now, possibly from daily sessions attempting to lift the country out of its slough of despond.

The White House press corps hadn’t taken pictures of Obama during his vacation out of respect for the family’s privacy, but Frank Griffin, co-owner of the photo agency that got the money shot, insisted Obama knew he was being photographed. “We use the expression, ‘He gave it up,’ ” Griffin said.

Way to go, Mr. President!

It’s official - Barack Obama is the new President of the United States of America! He enters the White House, riding a wave of voter discontent to a ground-breaking victory in the Presidential elections.

Obama has led from the front as Democrats landed a sweeping victory that enforced their majorities in both houses of Congress as the people of America emphatically rejected Republican President George W. Bush’s eight years of leadership.

Celebrations are on in full swing across the country, but Mr. President has little time at hand to revel in his victory. Obama will begin with his first day in the office today, planning out a formal takeover on the 20th of January.

Congratulations, Mr. President!
