Before you shake or stir up one of the Leap Year cocktails that PartySugar made yesterday, make sure your cocktail party knowledge hasn't missed a beat.

And there's a new good law nixing groping yourself for luck.

Before you shake up a batch of the lychee martinis PartySugar whipped up this week, make sure your cocktail chatter is current . . .

With all the Super Tuesday excitement, we wondered if a little hypocrisy was a good characteristic in a candidate, and whether China's crackdown on the internet was creating internet rebels. Arrests were made in the assassination of Benazir Bhutto, and Mitt Romney's departure from the presidential race led us to take a look at the politics of fear.

It's not too early to pop open a bottle of bubbly, make one of the old school classic mimosas Party perfected this week, and catch up on the news you might have missed. Cheers to knowing what's going on in the world!

In the world, we wondered how other countries would vote in the US election and found out which countries are the most stable.
