Happy New Year's Eve from the Newsgeist! Start the day with stories on Australian floods, cell phone chargers, and Gov. Perry. Read more for all the links.
-A new year and a new stock outlook. There's low futures for U.S. stocks.
-Australian residents are looking at weeks without their flooded homes.
-You can stop holding your breath, Billy the Kid will not be pardoned.
-Entertainment Weekly has your New Year's weekend film preview.
-Soon all smartphones will use a universal charger.
-There's lots to prepare in New York City for tonight's festivities.
-And finally, it would probably be nice to be Rick Perry's friend, but I guess we'll never know.
