• Can we go halfsies? While Canadian PM Justin Trudeau earned kudos last year for appointing a gender-balanced cabinet, no U.S. president has yet managed to achieve that 50/50 split (Bill Clinton got the closest, naming a 41% female cabinet as he began his second term).

On the campaign trail, Hillary Clinton promised to be the first, but her opponent, now president-elect Donald Trump, made no such vow. According to Bloomberg, women account for 21% of the staff and advisers on various lists of Trump transition team members. It's too soon to say how many of these women will make it into his cabinet, but it's already clear that those of us who were hoping that 2017 would finally be the year a U.S. president named women to a full 50% of top posts will be disappointed.

As we wait to see how Trump's cabinet shapes up, Fortune's Laura Cohn has a look at 12 women who are rumored to be in contention for big jobs in the new administration. Some are household names—former governors Sarah Palin (Alaska) and Jan Brewer (Arizona), Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway—while others, such as Arkansas attorney general Leslie Rutledge or EEOC commissioner Victoria Lipnic, may be less familiar. I recommend giving the list a read—we may be hearing a lot more about some of these women in the very near future.  Fortune

• 60 Minutes marketing. After Ivanka Trump appeared on 60 Minutes with her father last weekend, a group of journalists received an email from Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry noting that the $10,800 bangle Trump wore on the program is available from her company.
