2010 was filled with news both confounding and compelling. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and record flooding topped the news around the world. On the human front, manmade disasters in mining and oil drilling made us doubt our nation’s technological prowess. Despite this, an outpouring of goodwill from around the world kept hope alive. It seemed fitting then, that we pause this New Year’s Day to reflect on the events of 2010, and how they impacted our nation. (Click on the picture to view the video from Yahoo! News)

What about you? Did something happen in 2010 that changed the way you think? Looking back, what is the one thing that stands out in your mind as the most compelling, controversial, or confounding thing that happened in 2010?
