Mountains on the Antarctic Peninsula
Warming has been particularly strong on the Antarctic Peninsula. One study suggests that the warming is a consequence of carbon dioxide emissions from people. The effect on glaciers, in Antarctica and around the world, has been pronounced. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
(Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Stromness, a former whaling station
Stromness, a former whaling station on South Georgia island, was founded in 1912. This is where Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton finally made contact with the outside world in 1916 after being lost in and around Antarctica for 16 months. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Elephant Island
Elephant Island, part of the South Shetland Islands near Antarctica, is covered with mountains and ice. Early explorers named it after seeing elephant seals on its shore. Famous explorer Ernest Shackleton and his crew were marooned here in 1916 after loosing their ship in a crush of ice. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Paradise Bay in Orne Harbor
Paradise Bay and Orne Harbor are located in West Antarctica. Argentina and Chile both have scientific bases on the shore. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
The Europa
The Europa, an early 20th century sailing vessel, explores an Antarctic glacier. The Europa sails to Antarctica from southern points in South America. This boat is 183 feet long with a beam of 24 feet. The glacial ice behind it, like all glacial ice, is formed from centuries of snowfall. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Glacier along Antarctic Peninsula
This enormous glacier (notice the people in the boat) sits along the Antarctic Peninsula. Glaciers grow when more snow falls in the winter than melts in the summer. A glacier can be thousands of feet thick and hundreds of miles long. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Glacier in the Drygalski Fjord
This glacier is in Drygalski Fjord on South Georgia Island's southeast coast. Glaciers move downhill at a very slow rate, reaching the water and extending over it. Eventually a piece will break off under its own weight, forming an iceberg. Global warming, which has impacted many Antarctic glaciers, has reduced this glacier's size significantly. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
This iceberg sits between the Antarctic Peninsula and South Georgia Island. Icebergs spend thousands of years as part of a glacier. Once it calves (breaks off), the iceberg will live for 3 - 6 years. Icebergs that float into warmer water may not last that long, though the occasional iceberg can survive for 50 years or more. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off the Antarctic Peninsula
Icebergs, which come from glaciers, are made up of freshwater. Icebergs tend to travel with the current, often getting stuck against land. The blue color found in Antarctica can be extremely vibrant, the deeper blue the denser the ice. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Blue-fissured iceberg
Most icebergs are blue, which is the color of compressed ice from glaciers. Icebergs turn white after a few rounds of melting and freezing. An iceberg may even be green if the ice lived at the bottom of an ice shelf and came in contact with seawater over the centuries. The fissures form when warm air melts ice into pools, which then drips through cracks, widening them. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
Non-tabular icebergs come in all sorts of shapes. An arch shape is fairly common, but so too is too is a cube or tall spire. A canyon can form when two tips connect underwater. Then again, the shape might be completely irregular. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
This non-tabular iceberg off the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula formed in the shape of an arch. Caves sometimes form when water hits against the base of an iceberg. These caves can become arches when the iceberg's center of gravity changes and it flips on its side. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
Non-tabular icebergs can take on many different shapes. And that shape changes throughout its life. Frequent cycles of thawing and melting, every day and every season, open huge crevasses within the iceberg, leading to a complicated internal structure. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
Tabular icebergs are steep on the sides and flat on the top. This tabular iceberg sits near the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. For as large as it looks above water, most of this iceberg is below the surface. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
This tabular iceberg has broken in half and may be turning on it's side. The long horizontal lines represent years and years of accumulated snowfall. Like rings on a tree stump, they can be used to determine age. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg near South Georgia Island
This iceberg sits in the water between South Georgia Island and the Antarctic Peninsula. The above-water portion of the iceberg is bigger than the 200-passenger ship from which this picture is taken. But, as they say, that's only the tip of the iceberg. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Grounded iceberg flipped on its side
This grounded iceberg, by definition, touches the seafloor. Floating icebergs may become grounded when they drift into shallower water. As the ice melts, the weight shifts, and an iceberg will tumble in the water. The vertical lines are from scrapes across the seafloor. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg in Lemaire Channel
This grounded iceberg is located in Lemaire Channel, between Kiev Peninsula and Booth Island. This dense channel of grounded icebergs is appropriately named "Iceberg Alley." The waters are still enough to look like a lake, very rare in the extreme climate of the southern seas. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg Alley
The icebergs in iceberg alley can be as big as houses. These icebergs used to be floating in water up to the overhang. At some point they became grounded in shallower water. The area is so treacherous that ships sometimes have to backtrack and go around Booth Island to get by. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg Alley
Iceberg Alley contains icebergs of many shapes, sizes and colors. Some have likened their experience traveling through Iceberg Alley to floating in a giant cup of ice water. The sound of boat trudging through thick ice can be a little unnerving. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Horseshoe-shaped iceberg
This horseshoe-shaped iceberg also lives in Iceberg Alley. The light blue area shows where the base is just below the water's surface, with no ice above. The channel itself is hemmed in by steep cliffs on either side. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
This enormous iceberg sits in the open water between the Antarctic Peninsula and South Georgia Island. It's longer and taller than the 200-person, ocean-going vessel from which this picture was taken. Icebergs are classified into six official sizes: growler (car size), bergy bit (small house size), small, medium, large and very large. A very large iceberg is at least 670 feet long and 240 feet high. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)

The Rug Company's Co-Founder and Creative Director, Suzanne Sharp is celebrated as an artistic mastermind and pioneer of rug design.
Her fearless creative energy and instinctive approach to design have enabled her to create covetable and distinctive rug collections.
Suzanne intuitively knows when a design is interesting and original, and will never settle for anything less than exceptional. Her talents and expertise have earned her a following of design cognoscenti who feast on her confident use of colour, pattern and scale in her unfailingly and inherently elegant style.
Her visual vernacular is deeply rooted in colour and pattern. Her aesthetic is modern and she respectfully takes inspiration from her extensive travels as well as the world of architecture, theatre, fashion, art and history and is constantly searching, selecting and editing her ideas. All these influences are evident in her work, most visibly in the beautiful roomset photography she art directs to showcase The Rug Company's collections.
Many of her rug designs have now become design classics (her iconic Key Shadow won the Wallpaper* Design Award in 2008) and adorn some of the most beautiful interior schemes in the world.
"My designs are largely guided by my instinct and much of my style owes its origins to my nomadic childhood. Travel triggers my imagination and my designs are often an updated version of things I have seen. My style is modern and timeless. I'm interested in how people feel in a space and I'm into being able to move things around when I have new ideas: the rug is a perfect example of my nomadic approach to decorating." Suzanne Sharp
This wall hanging is handmade. The design is hand-stitched in wool through an open weave canvas backing.
Needlepoint is a traditional technique that has been used for centuries all over the world. Different stitches and guages of mash can be employed to produce interesting textures. Mounted on a wooden stretcher for hanging.

Unlike Obama, he doesn't bend over. http://www.2013ipl.in/ipl-6-opening-ceremony-live-streaming-telecast-onl...
Hagel seems like a good choice for the job. However from the Democrats perspective it's bad politics. The GOP consistently paints the Dems as being weak on defense, and appointing one of their own to run the country's defense doesn't help the Dems one bit.
Still, I'm glad Obama took that risk anyway. It might only be symbolically bipartisan, but at least it's a symbol. Plus it'll be hilarious to watch all the Republicans try to discredit one of their own during the confirmation hearings.
"In a 2006 interview he caused a minor storm by clumsily claiming that the "Jewish lobby intimidates a lot of people" in Congress"
Hardly clumsy. It's completely accurate. No other country holds so much sway over American foreign policy, and yet what Americans get in return is hard to measure, if anything at all.
I agree to what hohan said - he does have to follow the direction of his administration. The real qustion being: who is administering?
In the end does it matter? Whether he leans left or right is irrelevant, he is appointed by the president and must follow the direction of his administration.
Iran has unveiled a 'new' indigenously developed variant of the Bell AH-1J Sea Cobra attack helicopter (Toufan, in Islamic Republic of Iran Army aviation corps service), state media announced on 2 January. The upgraded helicopter, dubbed Toufan 2, was revealed by the Minister of Defence General Ahmed Vahidi.
FYI: Vahidi is on the Interpol's wanted list as a planner and implementer of the Iranian Quds terrorist attack on the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires.
[that's the fella Hagel (Obama's Secretary of Defense in spe) wants to discuss out differences with over a cup of tea]
That's too much. Down with I..srael.
How about the targeted assassinations that the Israeli carry out, which lead to this stuff, which leads to ...... You need to slow down and think. Interpol may one day even put these targeted assassinations, so called, as Mafia hits ... and try to do it's job.
Last sentence in eighth paragraph should be corrected to 'Somalia', not 'Somali'
Almost every Presidential decision shows that it's Obama, politician of character, v/s the Republicans, caricatures of politicians!
Please, check how many times Barack Hussein Obama reversed himself as both, US senator and president.
[his record in that regard being patently obvious]
You would be a lot more credible if you referred to the President as "President Obama" or at least just as Obama - instead of "Barack Hussein Obama" which frankly makes me think you are a Fox News acolyte.
Obama and his brutals do the same as chicken hawk liar Bush and his Neocon brutals: They kill without mercy and no legal proceedings. This is unworthy of a modern democracy. Futile wars the alienate Pakistan and Afghanistan even more a no good method to quell an uprising that has been organized in the first place by the black ops CIA during the cold war. Why can they not just keep their fingers from the triggers and go home?
The muslims should fight out between their own people. We should stand to the side and only help them to get their water and sanitation and health systems right. Maybe fresh water and solar energy would bring us more friends then killing "terrorists". Btw.: Most leaders of new countries have been terrorists in the begining. We don´t kill any PLO or Hagana (now IDF!) leaders. This is all insane, idiotic, senseless killing without any usefulness.
"We should stand to the side and only help them to get their water and sanitation and health systems right."
In Afghanistan and Muslim fanatics blow up schools built by IFOR and in A. and Pakistan they kill/maim girls who dare get an education.
[but for those girls and some other (few) moderate/reasonable Muslims, I'd be sorely tempted to dump 2 10MT warheads on the region.]
While we are at it, let's not waste the trip and carry an extra one for Israel. We can drop it on the return trip. That way both the crazy Muslims and the crazy Jews get fixed. Fixes both sides of the equation.
Some people (not you) obsess about Israel.
But there's a broader, potentially very dangerous issue.
A war between mostly Sunni Arab countries, prominently Saudi Arabia, and Shiite PERSIA - for a domination over Middle East.
P.S. When 30 years ago I said at a meeting that the next major military conflict in the ME is not going to be about oil, but about WATER, many present tried very hard not to laugh.
No, they're not laughing today anymore.
[knowing by now how Turkey got PKK's leader Ocalan]
"While we are at it, let's not waste the trip and carry an extra one for Israel".
Being a flyer I can tell you that for purely geographical reasons it would make more sense on a return trip from Iran.
Btw. I often wondered what would happen if a map on a B-2 pilot's thigh was folded in such a a way that only "IRA" was visible.
What would you do, both your hands being occupied and radio silence being in order - bomb IraQ - or IraN?
Make a lucky guess. :-)
You are a lunatic. Dropping A-Bombs is exactly what these girls need.
It´s interesting that my comment about sending you guys to Pakistan got removed but you right wingers can spew out this nonsense unchecked.
Tunisian authorities have released the sole suspect in custody for the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi (ALi Harzi) claiming lack of evidence.
USA Today reports that investigation in Libya has also stalled because of the weak power of the central government relative to the powerful militias who may have been involved in the attack.
So much for Arab Spring some "foreign policy experts" in Washington,D.C., honestly believed in.
[Foggy Bottom, indeed]
"Both men see the world very much as Mr Obama does, which is to say, complicated, messy and all too frequently impervious to the use of American power even when wielded with the best of intentions"
There was a time when that statement was the basic definition of "conservative" foreign policy.
"Some of the wilder comment has even come close to accusing Mr Hagel of being an anti-Semite"
The stock accusation levelled at those who have the temerity to disagree with Zionists.
My Israeli and obviously Jewish contacts dislike "Netanyahoo" [no typo], believe he is corrupt, not good for Israel and not good for Israel. There are a fair number of American Jews of the same opinion.
Following the illogic of the FOX/GOP/TEA/Likud Party, all of these Israeli citizens are traitors and all these Jews are anti-Semitic. The propagandists who post here and elsewhere NEVER admit that liberal Israelis [and many Socialist Israelis] exist, or that most American Jews are firmly in the progressive camp and tend to vote Democratic.
Living in a bubble is not just for American right-wing and TEA Party types. Such sources need to be looked into carefully and given the exact amount of credibility they deserve [i.e. much less than they have now].
Time will tell how far the pair get in overcoming disinformation from their supposed subordinates and lobbyists, in reshaping, focusing and reducing US 'imperialism', military and intelligence excesses and restore the public rule of law and ethics not only in how detainees are treated, but also in how America's youth are used as cannon fodder in ideological wars talked up by spooks.
The rest of the world remembers with extreme distaste the 'WMD' bullsh_t, wars, deaths, the trapping of the Prime Minister of the US primary ally (UK, Blair) in a massive lie with imbedded media. Reducing tensions in the Muslim wars can only benefit the security of the West and give moderate Israelis a chance to get peace back onto the agenda - though no doubt the hard lines on-going settlements and Morsi will provoke a reversion to the middle East problem sooner rather than later.
Not only charity should start back at home - Mr Obama has demonstrated the pragmatic realism needed to refocus spend on growing the economy and jobs outside of the military machine, which should - but will not - get all the support that deserves.
Pray, tell how Mr.Obama has grown US economy and how many jobs has he created during 4 years of his presidency?
It should be for its own good that the US realizes its decline, in the eyes of the rest of the world, including long time strong allies. Regional "powers" are fast sprouting up in all continents, challenging the legitimacy of US global predominance. Still dreaming of white supremacy? Better not. (mtd1943)
"It should be for its own good that the US realizes its decline, in the eyes of the rest of the world, including long time strong allies."
You mean those from collapsing EU?
Europe will not collapse if our govs stop implementing this idiotic austerity policy that kills us. Esp. Angela Merkel and her pundits have no idea how macro economics work.
With all due respect.
It's not Merkel. Or Hollande, Or....
It's just the the whole eurozone is a superstate on clay legs just as USSR was.
One cannot lump together countries with incompatible levels of economic development, tax collecting ability and levels of corruption, not to mention work ethics.
If euro, as a currency, is to survive, it'll have to be limited to no more than 5 NW European countries.
But since EU, in its current form, is a political project, that would require an admission by Commi-ssars in Brussels as well as many prominent Western leaders -that it's been a failure.
And you cannot realistically expect that.
[it would be even more than Obama admitting his economic policy has been a disaster for the U$A]
Smart Obama move: splits GOP even further so DP has better chances of securing 17 more seats and thus control of the House in 2014. It's a long shot - due to gerrymandering favoring GOP - but a few more GOP missteps might turn the odds in Obama's favor.
Historically, opposition gains seats during mid-term elections.
What makes you think an outcome of 2014 elections will be any different?
I said "it's a long shot."
On the other hand, DP is also aware of the historical outcome of the mid-term elections, and I suspect it will not accept it as destiny.
If DP will succeed we'll know in November 2014.
John McCain... says that to "allege that Hagel is somehow a Republican… is a hard one to swallow".
Considering the typical Republican's view of Senator McCain, that's a rather rich statement for him to make...
But if I were Mr. Hagel, I would take it as a compliment of the highest order.
Considering that McCain is just a bitter old man , living of his rich wife's income .... a kept man.
"Considering that McCain is just a bitter old man , living of his rich wife's income .... a kept man."
Unlike our Secretary of State in spe and failed presidential candidate - John Kerry? :-)
Good point !
Btw., not to you but to US haters:
[failing, collapsing, spent] US's oil production will jump by a quarter by 2014 to its highest level in 26 years
US oil imports would fall by a quarter between 2012 and 2014, because of rising domestic production and the discovery of shale gas.
By ca 2030 US surpassing Saudi Arabia as oil EXPORTER.
Hagel & Brennan are Drone boys, not gun boat diplomacy aka. Iowa Class USS Missouri, boys.
Modern Smart Weapons kill with a staggering degree of accuracy compared to the old area weapons, of a time once been.
I vote for the Drone boys.
Brennan maybe a drone boy, but Hagel's military experience is definitely from (Mekong) gun-boat era.
Btw. I don't think the latter likes any gay. Including Enola.
The US Navy has awarded General Dynamics Electric Boat a USD1.8 billion contract to design and develop a new fleet of ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs) for the Ohio replacement programme.
As you can see Pentagon still counts on boats. :-)
I respect this man. I like how he can stand up to Israel which almost impossible in our Government. I have no ill will towards Israel, I just hate the idea that anyone who disagrees with them is an Anti-Semite.
Thats a childish mentality that needs to stop.
Very true. I admire Israel for a lot of reasons, but it saddens me deeply to see the two people contending to be the President of MY country fight so childishly on national television over which of the two visited Israel first, who said what about Israel, who has praised Israel the most, who has met with Netanyahu most often, who has said the word "Israel" the most, who first uttered the word "Israel" in the debate... (see: the third presidential debate last year).
I don't know how two grown men didn't realize how pathetic they looked doing that, let alone how Americans aren't completely outraged by the fact that politicians think it's more important for them to express their unconditional love and loyalty to Israel than, say, their commitment to making sure every American has access to good healthcare or a decent tertiary education.
Can you state a few examples of what the Israelis have forced our government to do against the will of the US people or our Congress ?
I think you'd be hard pressed to back up your talking points.
The Israelis are clients. Let's just put them in their place, like the rest of the world.
Like keeping us fighting all non whites on their behalf from the Middle East to Indonesia? Where have you been?
$ 4 Billion annually to start, rumba! Then we have the nukes and the Iron Dome, and the hiding of the atrocities commented in Palestine...the settlements that are supported by our tax payer $$$!
It is NOT THE ISRAELIS but bibi and likud zionists radicals! The pompous arse had the nerve to lecture the US President...That did not work well for him now did it..His candidate, willard, lost!
Please list the countries. You have mentioned Indonesia as one of them.
You are a sick man.......
In 2010 we gave the following foreign aid
Afghanaztan 11.8 billion
Pakistan 2.8 billion
Israel 2.8 billion
Egypt 1.7 billion
Ethiopia 1.0 billion
Jordan .75 billion
A whole lot more went to other countries as well
For all you bluster you come up empty unless of course it was Israel who forced us to give this aid to dark skin people............FOOL !
I have not forgotten that some unpunished person in the Israeli government ordered a strafing attack on the USS Liberty followed by machine gunning of US sailors struggling in the Mediterranean.
What would we have done if the Somalis, Iranians, or "pirates" had done that? Had I been president Israel would have paid dearly for that, and the guilty would have been demanded in the same tone that the Afghan/Taleban government were ordered to turn over the guilty Al Qaida for US punishment.
Having said that, I have to admit that I feel the US has no choice but to help Israel because of the promises made by Palestinians and others to have a new Holocaust. It would be unethical to abandon Israel to the wolves who make genocidal statements.
This does not mean that the US should kowtow to the aggressive Likud/Zionist faction. They want our help and support, but they try to get it by using mafia tactics [see the behavior of Bibi toward our president for a recent example]. We can and should make them ask nicely [if not beg], and exact a suitable price for the aid. The price should include getting out of our politics, dismantling AIPAC, stopping illegal settlements [and other trouble-making and peace obstructing actions], etc.
We pay the piper, and we should call the tune; and Bibi should come hat in hand and with due respect.
Your assessment is correct. For too long, the tail (Israel) has been wagging the dog (USA). Here in London, there was an excellent article in the Guardian on this subject yesterday:
"Among the particular problems Hagel's critics have is his refusal when a senator to routinely sign Aipac-sponsored letters of unquestioning support for Israeli policies. He would not, for example, put his name to letters pledging unequivocal backing for Israel after the second Palestinian uprising began in 2000, pressing the European Union to declare Hezbollah in Lebanon a terrorist organisation and demanding that the Palestinian leadership bar Hamas from running for election.
Hagel, in an interview with the Lincoln Journal Star in his home state of Nebraska on Monday, said critics have "completely distorted" his record. He said there is "not one shred of evidence that I'm anti-Israeli, not one [Senate] vote that matters that hurt Israel". Which is true.
But his detractors have done that to discredit him because they don't want to talk about what really alarms them: what Hagel did say and his reasoning for it.
"I didn't sign on to certain resolutions and letters because they were counterproductive and didn't solve a problem. How does that further the peace process in the Middle East? What's in Israel's interest is to help Israel and the Palestinians find some peaceful way to live together."
He later added:
"Furthering the peace process in the Middle East is in Israel's interest."
In other words, Aipac is not acting in Israel's best interests but providing political cover in Washington for Netanyahu.
Hagel also got into trouble for pointing out that Aipac "intimidates" members of Congress. Aipac denies this while also claiming to its supporters to be immensely influential in shaping support for Israel on Capitol Hill. But there's no doubt that members of Congress view Aipac much as they view the National Rifle Association – the be crossed only at dire electoral peril.
However, this insistence on unwavering support for Netanyahu (or any other Israeli prime minister) is helping to drive away the very people Aipac claims to speak for. Bradley Burston, an American Jew who settled in Israel, wrote in Haaretz recently that many Jewish Americans are turning away from the state founded in their name:
"In fact, as the new year dawns, there are mounting signs that 2013 may be the year in which US Jews – in the main, liberal in outlook, committed to tolerance, pluralism, and a vigorous, sincere pursuit of peace – effectively secede from this state of Israel. Many American Jews are already distancing themselves in word and deed from a government it sees as arrogant and short-sighted, enslaved to a runaway train of settlement, dismissive of the rights of Palestinians and other non-Jews, cold to the concerns of a sinking middle class and the drowning disadvantaged, contemptuous of the concerns of the larger Jewish world."
Further evidence that Chuck Hagel is right, and that the pro-Israel position is to stand up to Netanyahu."
Likewise on Iran, in general, the Middle East should be a nuclear-free area. However, that will not be possible till Israel is willing to allow nuclear inspections. They have more than 400 nuclear warheads - a significantly larger inventory than India.
You are still beating that drum ?
That was a well known coverup and Johnson buried it quickly.
WTF was the USS Liberty doing 12 miles off the Coast of Egypt in a major war without backup and unknown to the Israelis ?
It was spying and relaying Israel military intelligence to the Arab countries fighting Israel in a duplicitous attempt not to piss of OPEC countries.
I am so sick of idiots running on this tired propaganda.
TE: "If Mr Brennan were slowly to shift the CIA away from its heavily paramilitary role of recent years back towards its more traditional function of intelligence gathering and analysis, many in the intelligence community would applaud."
If memory serves, the previous liberal left US president (Jimmy "the Peanut" Carter) destroyed CIA's HUMINT believing US could rely only on "national technical means".
[It took many years for R. Reagan to rebuild it.]
Now pres. Obama, unwilling to commit human assets, relies on UAVs.
"the previous liberal left US president"
By most accounts, Obama is to the right of Clinton.
I thought the radical, extremist right's obsession with comparing President Obama with Jimmy Carter would fade away after the election, seeing as it utterly failed as a campaign strategy.
I am not sure the Reagan administration was able to rebuild much, or did it very effectively.
Iran Contra doesn't exactly come off as a great accomplishment in spy history.
More seriously though, the inability to protect and then find kidnapped Americans, like the CIA station chief in Lebanon, leaves a little head scratching.
Similarly, it seems the Soviets may have been able to roll up a number of CIA assets during the early/mid 1980s due to their own humint (Aldrich Ames comes to mind; maybe others).
"seeing as it utterly failed as a campaign strategy."
Nah, that's the time to double down.
Other than the fact that Bush Sr politicized it? Look to his tender hand at train wrecking the thing.
Re Soviet penetration: it actually worked both ways.
P.S. It's hard to find someone moved from Lebanon to Iran.
Let alone rescue him (as Jimmy Carter found out the hard way).
The fact that Hagel is qualified out the kazoo and will not play patticake with the neocons is the issue..
The neocons and aipac are trying to SELL the idea that the likud party and bibi's rabid right wing beliefs are those of the Israeli people and the American Jewish Community..They ARE NOT! It is a coalition, splintering, that was cobbled together because T.Livini won the popular vote and Simon Peres chose him!
The stated democracy of Israel does not even ALLOW the Palestinians to VOTE in the National elections ONLY local little elections! A SHAM!
If the Jewish community gets to choose our government's ministers, how about giving Buddhists, and Christians, and Muslims and Hindus a say also? Or do we already have it. If only the Jewish community could quit whining and moaning so much. Very, very high maintenance, OMG !!!

I think will be good a reform, don't only on what is possible made patent and copyright, but even for reduce their period of validity and add the impossibility to add legal action after a long time a certain product is used without complain.
Basically I am referring to situations in which the producers of certain technologies, do nothing for a sufficient period on certain their solution, until their will spread, and subsequently proceedings with lawsuits.
Should be obvious to anyone that the current laws hinder the innovation and are intended only for the benefit of the big oligopolies.
The same political representatives given the pressure taken from lobbies and some elements corrupted do nothing.
For me the only difference between USA and Europe is that on the USA is made more clear that the lobby are present, and is said clearly about the funding that they give at the parties while on Europe will pretend that does not exist.
And if we want speak even about the antitrust about the many improper behavior from the oligopolists, the European antitrust have proved be several times to be more efficient than the equivalent American to punish wrong doing but if the problem is not solved at the root, such interventions, are not very effective and always late.
Also often the fines are much lower amount of the gains improperly made.

o.k why not? Shes hot though, yummmy!!!!
There has been some great Amazing Spider-Man 2 news this week already and now we have more! First and foremost we have learned that Amazing Spider-Man 3 (2016) and 4 (2018) have been given release dates/ green lights.
The official word from Sony Pictures: "Pictures Entertainment now in production in New York on The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2, slated for release on May 2, 2014, the studio is planting its flag on two future release dates for one of the most successful franchises in studio history, it was announced today by Jeff Blake, Chairman, Worldwide Marketing and Distribution for Sony Pictures. The next two films in the story of Peter Parker will be released on June 10, 2016, and on May 4, 2018, respectively.
Commenting on the announcement, Blake said, "Spider-Man is our most important, most successful, and most beloved franchise, so we're thrilled that we are in a position to lock in these prime release dates over the next five years."
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci & Jeff Pinkner, with a previous draft by James Vanderbilt, and based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are the producers. The executive producers are E. Bennett Walsh, Stan Lee, Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci.
The Amazing Spider-Man took in over $750 million at the worldwide box office last year".
Now the latest news is that Felicity Jones will be playing Black Cat. A fact that she may or may not have confirmed in a recent interview (see below at the 1 minute mark). What is certain is that she is playing the Black Cat's alter ego, Felicia Hardy in Amazing Spider-Man 2. Bleeding Cool.com popped the question during an interview for her most recent film Like Crazy.
I don't know...in that picture, I'm seeing some Scarlett Witch. ;)
No i dont buy it. She just sounds like she doesnt know the comic very well. Shes probably betty Brant and once the interviewer asked that she thought maybe betty turns into her later so she rolled with the question
I hate bangs, but she's cute. Or wait are we supposed to be talking about something other than her looks?
She's a wee bit short, but she sure is cutie alright. A quick search of recent photos of shows her to be rather thin and scrawny. She's going to need the pack on at least 10 lbs of defined muscle to look even remotely bad ass.
But then again, the new Spiderman is rather unenjoyable, (the acting was atrocious!) was kind of hoping Sony would shelve this silliness for awhile... Or better yet maybe work with Marvel/Disney to have him appear in the Avengers.
How many characters are they adding in this movie? Didn't they learn their lesson with Spiderman 3?
Agree, Sony and Marvel should strike a deal or something to get Spidey in Avengers or crossover. If DC/WB gets their act together and get a JL movie done, Marvel is toast. DC/WB have the luxury of owning the rights to all of their big name characters.
Avengers are great but Spiderman is the biggest Marvel name. They need all A-list characters to compete.
Yeah, not sure little girl here exactly exudes Black Cat to me. Too cute. Not enough sexy.
Well that news is sure to piss off the massive army behind the "Boycott it so the rights return to Marvel" agenda... ;)
Anne Hathaway would of been good as black cat.. but she was used for batman.. oh well.. This chic is even hotter i think.. she has a fresh face... she'll do fine
Not enough sexy? Are you from the land of Super Duper Hot Models? I wish I could see you what you've been looking at.

My Bag
0My Favorites
0Work-appropriate shoes need not be so workday boring.
I've had a crush on wedge high top sneakers since I first saw the trend. No one is wearing them in my city yet and I know I'll get some flack from friends & husband, but I don't care!I'm usually a size 39 or between a 8.5 and a 9. These are at least 1/2 size bigger than expected. I ordered size 8 and they're a little snug around the top of my foot, but I can loosen the laces. As for the toe, I still have a good half inch of room if I want to wear a heavy sock.
These shoes are very classy. I ordered the chateau grey color which goes with pretty much anything. The shoes aren't as big and sloppy looking as some wedge sneakers, and look good wearing boot cut or skinny pants. I wore them all day at work and do a fair bit of walking and experienced no discomfort. I used the 30% coupon for first time purchasers, so I am very happy with this purchase. Shoes arrived in about a week to Canada, and luckily had to pay no duty. Will order again from this company.

Headline »
A proposal by the New York Cosmos, the city's legendary team from the 1970's, for a brand-new 25,000 seat soccer stadium and development at Belmont Park, may sink Major League Soccer's plans to build a stadium on city land in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park.
The $400 million, privately funded proposal named "Elmont Town Crossings" was submitted Wednesday by the Cosmos to the Empire State Development Corporation for review. The development would be located on the Queens-Nassau border and would feature almost 250,000 square feet of retail space, a 175 room hotel, a public soccer field and a 4.3 acre park.
A decision is expected to be made within 90 days and may play a major role in the level of continued support for any new Flushing-Meadows stadium.

The gynecologic medical oncology group at Memorial Sloan Kettering works in coordination with our gynecologic surgeons and radiation oncologists to determine the best treatment plans for our patients. We work to improve care not only by using standard therapies, but by offering participation in ongoing clinical trials that incorporate promising new medications for treating cancer.
My clinical research is focused on new therapies for ovarian cancer. In particular, I am interested in the development of PARP inhibitor therapy for ovarian cancer and how best to combine this new class of agents with standard therapies.
Along with many of my colleagues at Memorial Sloan Kettering, I am an active participant in the Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) — a national clinical research group that works to improve the care of women with gynecologic malignancies. I am a member of the GOG's Phase I committee as well as the Experimental Medicine committee.

Harvey takes on Latos in a matchup of unbeatens
Reds, who have won nine of 11, look to complete sweep of Mets
The Mets aren't worried about Matt Harvey's workload, but they are in danger of being swept at home by the Reds.
Harvey will go for his sixth win on Wednesday in the finale of a three-game series against Cincinnati at Citi Field. The right-hander is 5-0 with a 1.55 ERA in nine starts, and he has been a bright spot in a tough season for New York.
Harvey is one of three pitchers in the National League who has thrown at least 30 innings without a loss. Mat Latos is also in that group and will start for the Reds as he looks for his fifth win.
While Harvey is on pace to blow past his innings total from last season, Mets manager Terry Collins said he can't worry about that at this point in the year.
"It's May. What's going to happen in September, I wish I could tell you," Collins said. "I wish I had a crystal ball that said, 'Look, he's going to get to 215 [innings] and we're going to have to be very cautious.' I can't tell you what's going to happen, that's too far away."
The Mets can't look too far down the road because they've lost seven of their last 10 games.
Harvey had success against the Reds in his only other start against them, allowing one run on four hits in 7 2/3 innings last August.
"I know we didn't do much against him," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "I've talked to some guys on other teams, and they told me, 'You better get ready and you better come ready.' It was just like they told us about [Jose] Fernandez in Miami. They told me they were top young guys in the league as far as stuff was concerned."
Latos, 25, is also one of the top young arms in the Majors. The right-hander is 4-0 with a 2.91 ERA. He's gone at least six innings in all but one of his nine starts, including a season-high 8 1/3 innings of two-run ball to beat the Marlins his last time out.
The Reds took the opener on Monday, 4-3, and won on Tuesday, 4-0, to improve to 6-2 on a nine-game road trip that ends Wednesday.
Reds: Chapman ditches windup
Reds closer Aroldis Chapman threw all 11 pitches from the stretch on Monday during a perfect ninth inning to earn his ninth save.
Chapman got rid of the windup and bounced back from consecutive blown saves. He's struggled with command this month, but had eight strikes with six swings and misses on Monday night. But there was no decision from the club that Chapman not use his unique windup.
"It matters that he's comfortable. And if he's comfortable solely from the stretch, that's fine," Reds pitching coach Bryan Price said. "But we haven't terminated the windup delivery if he decides to stay in the stretch. That's fine. They both work."
Mets: Collins experimenting with leadoff spot
The Mets are still looking for consistent production from the top of the order.
Ruben Tejada has not resembled the successful leadoff hitter he was in 2012. The shortstop is hitting too many fly balls, unlike the hard line drives his at-bats produced a season ago.
Tejada's struggles have forced Collins to use seven different leadoff hitters in 43 games.
"If he was giving us the at-bats that we saw last year, he is the leadoff hitter," Collins said. "There's some things you've got to do to work to your strengths, and Ruben's is hitting line drives. Fly balls, they're great once in a while, when you hit one in the gap, but he's got to start being that line-drive guy that we know."
Second baseman Daniel Murphy went 1-for-4 as the leadoff hitter during Tuesday's loss.
Worth noting
• The Reds haven't lost a series at Citi Field since 2009.
• The Mets are 2-10 in their last 12 home games.

At an award ceremony early this summer, New York University's Office of Civic Engagement awarded more than $160,000 in grants to 83 community-based non-profit organizations, with money raised through the NYU Combined Campaign, the T.G. White Fund, and progamming by the Skirball Center for the Performing Arts. Over the past 30 years, the Combined Campaign has awarded over 1,600 grants totaling more than $2.5M to local nonprofit organizations.
"The grant funding comes not from the University itself, but from hundreds of NYU employees, each of whom believes in the important work being done by these organizations every day," said Bill Pfeiffer, director of the Office of Civic Engagement.
Since 2001, one outstanding organization each year has received a distinctive $5,000 grant in memory of the former Community Fund staff director, Thom Fluellen, whose spirit and enthusiasm for this community was an inspiration to countless others. This year, the award went to Project Renewal. Founded in 1967, Project Renewal empowers homeless men and women suffering from addiction and/or mental illness to move permanently from the streets or shelters to health, homes, and jobs.
"NYU feels special pride in making these awards, because they reflect a very personal initiative by NYU employees to benefit others in our community," said Lynne P. Brown, Senior Vice President for University Relations and Public Affairs. "Resources are sharply focused to alleviate specific needs we see every day, and the results are just as vivid and rewarding to us all."

In my honest opinion, this TV is a waste of money to begin with, because going 1080p at only 32" is overkill. The screen is simply too small for you to see a significant difference between 1080p and 720p.
I should also note that a lot of TV newbies confuse video resolution with contrast ratio. I was in Sears a few weeks back, and some guy in there had his mind made up that the 32" Samsung TV wes 1080p because it looked noticeably better than the 32" Sony they had on display. The only difference was the Sony had a 2000:1 contrast ratio and the Samsung was listed as 8000:1. He, like a lot of other people, confused the brighter picture with "Having More HD"

Phoronix: Opera 9.5 Alpha For Linux Released
For those using the Opera web browser, Opera 9.5 Alpha with a Linux binary has been released. The Opera 9 rendering engine has been rewritten for Opera 9.5 which resulted in several speed and memory enhancements, improved layout algorithm, a more responsive user interface, synchronization support with My Opera, full history search, and many more improvements.
It should alo be noted that this release also supports x86_64 arch
if the latter is true than it's really great news.
I've been using the 9.5 alpha today and it hasn't crashed on me once yet. Its fast as usual with Opera, and seems pretty stable.
I like Opera and I like this release, but I'm waiting for the QT4 "weekly" now.
I'm not very fond of Opera, but it is good news to know that there is a Linux version of the new 9.5 alpha, the more people use the product, the more feedback, they'll get, and the more bugs will be fixed. Kudos to Opera for supporting Linux! (I know its been the case for some releases now, just wanted to point that out)

Jon Austria/The Farmington Daily Times
Jon Austria/The Farmington Daily Times
Finding beloved family members can now be done with the click of a mouse.
Aztec Cemetery, established in 1890, just made its records and history available online. The debut website launched late last year.
Prompted by calls and emails for information on birth and death dates, plot locations, deed owners and burial costs, caretaker and treasurer Joe Price and his wife, Earlene, knew they needed help.
�Many people, near or far, wanted access to the information that we have available at the cemetery,� Earlene Price said. �A lot of times they were not able to visit, so providing records on computer made sense.�
Prompted by Earlene�s suggestion, the Aztec Cemetery Association�s board of directors voted in favor of an online presence for the cemetery.
Then Earlene and Joe sought help to create a website. The couple turned to Dale Anderson.
Anderson�s business, Aztec Media, created the cemetery site for free.
According to webmaster Daniel Hise, the site�s pages have been viewed several hundred times in the handful of weeks it has been online.
�I hope we see more Internet visitors,� Earlene said. �I would like to hear what they think of the site. They can write a post on the comment page if they have any questions or ideas.�
The interactive site allows users to search graves by name for section and row location.
The interment listing includes death and birth dates and, if available, additional details about a plot�s marker, if ashes are present or if a baby is buried.
�I do genealogy myself, so I have long thought it was important to organize all the information to make it easier for people to search for a relative, order a stone or to make a donation for the upkeep of a grave,� she said.
According to Earlene, the process of cataloguing the cemetery�s records has been a collective effort from the start.
Patricia Elmore, owner of the Thrifty Nickle, originally volunteered to begin the process of transferring records onto a computer.
�A few years later, an Aztec High School student expanded the information,� she said. �Since then, I have tried to keep the records updated, adding new information when available.�
Joe, who also serves on the board of directors, hopes it makes a difference for people looking for their relatives, or for those interested in learning about the rural cemetery�s history.
Large cemeteries did not exist in San Juan County, N.M. before the mid-1800s. Most plots were small or connected in yards beside churches, records show.
With a current population near 2,600, Aztec Cemetery has expanded numerous times including as recently as 2000 to include a southern portion across a ditch from the original site, Earlene said.
And like neighboring land used by the living, its growth was formed haphazardly at times.
But it is the human stories that makes the cemetery an historical resource that speaks vividly of the community�s past.
The website�s history page, written by former high school principal Joe Boettcher, details the formation of the cemetery not long after its first burial, for 2-year-old Edgar Koontz.
Searching through the website for names of Aztec�s past can produce surprising and intriguing results.
Alphabetically arranged online, the final resting place for many of the cemetery�s residents reveals a Civil War veteran who dug his own grave, seven San Juan sheriffs (and a number of outlaws, too), and a man who lived in three different centuries known as �Uncle Jimmy� (1798-1903).
And then there is the tragic story of the ironically named Boat family whose eldest son, on a trip to Durango, decided to keep the dollar toll fee for spending money and ford the river. The mother and youngest daughter were drowned and later buried together in a single grave.
The Boat family headstone can be found on the main road leading into the cemetery, about 10 rows east on the south side of the road.
Over the last few years, the number of burials has averaged between 25 and 30, Earlene said. At some point, the cemetery will have to confront the finite space it has.
Until then, Earlene is eager to keep the database of interment history growing.
�I try to continue to collect information on the deceased, especially harder-to-find birth records,� she said.
When the Prices took over care of the cemetery, they inherited a daunting amount of boxes full of records. Earlene hopes to make those available online before donating them to the Aztec museum.
�People think of cemeteries as being morbid, scary places,� Earlene said. �But it is quite the opposite. The history and the stories of the lives lived from pioneers to present, is pretty amazing when you start to take a look.�

I took this photo today while Adelaide and Elliot were patiently waiting for me to get into the tub. To me, bubble baths together are the perfect solution to those time I'm feeling a little bit fried, or the long monotonous times when I'm just not sure what to do with Adelaide. Im sure all parents know exactly what I'm taking about!
Elliot rarely ever misses a bath time - it's one of the rare times that he'll actually get out of bed. He really likes to sit on the edge of the tub and every so often have a sip. Adelaide calls it his "tea"!
What do you do with your little ones when you just don't know what to do anymore? I'd love to have more tricks and tips stored away safe in the back of my brain!

Since my son is only 13 mos I do exactly what you do, either run a bubble bath or go in the hot tub. When he is older I think that I will bake with him - I find that it usually de-stresses me, hopefully it will have the same results with a two y/o!

- Heather said...
Today I was outside pulling weeds in my garden and left the water running. My 3 yo son loves to run through the water and get soaked. I love the extra time to keep working, and I always know where he's at because he's always screaming because the water is cold, or it gets him in the nose, or something. It's fun to watch too.
- Amy said...
My son loves to "paint" the house with a paintbrush and a bucket of water. Simple, but very entertaining.
My contention is always that no matter what is wrong with me or my child (who is now 16), "just add water" is the best advice - be it a bath, a sprinkler, a pool, a hose, plastic cups and a bucket - endless options. It will snap you or your littles out of whatever funk or rut you're in. - katrina

Lately I have been getting up at 4 a.m. to get some work in before the little one wakes at 7 a.m. (6 months old) and it leaves me a little pooped in the early afternoon. When I want to lay in bed and just relax I bring him in with me and just tickle him and teach him to sit up. It allows me to be a little lazy, but Bronson loves the time with his mom. I love that when they are young they just want to be with you and have your attention. It's very demanding yet rewarding. His laughter and smile tend to bring me the extra energy that I need.
P.S. Such a perfect picture. - 5:41 PM
- Amber said...
That is so sweet! I still use that trick with my 7 and 8 year old. But it isn't nearly as often as it was. Now me pull out board games or all the craft stuff or make rice crispy treats.
My little girl is only a few months younger than yours. When times get tough, we run around the house yelling. I chase her with a pompom from my college days and we scream at the top of our lungs.
I have also been trying to teach her to dance, so we turn on music and have a dance party.

Books on CD or stories on LP.... if i put one on in my son's room... he disappears into another world. this week in the texas heat, his escape has been Charlotte's Web... he sits and listens and colors or draws or just sits on the floor and relaxes... been doing this since he was two and he is four now.
we take the CDs out from the library and I burn them onto my lap top... I buy vintage kids albums at thrift shops... his favorites are the maurice sendak and carol king album "really rosie" and shel silverstein's "runny babbit". - 7:58 PM

On a really really bad day, we all hop in the bath, keep our hands out of the water... and then we eat chocolate... doesn't happen very often, but it works a treat.

My son is 20 months and lately I have been giving him options... "do you want to color?" "do you want to go outside?" "do you want to play with trains?" This weekend I couldn't find anything that would get a nod until I asked "do you want to jump on the bed?" So we cleared everything off the bed, put the pillows on the floor beside(just in case), turned on some music, and we jumped on the bed!
- Renee said...
When mine were little I'd let them go "Swimming" in the tub. They would get their swimsuits on, I'd put little toys that were heavy and would sink to the bottom. I'd give them the little goggle and snorkel sets so they could explore the treasures at the bottom of the tub. So fun! My baby is now 13, so it's been a while.
- Featherglen said...
Go outside! That helps me so much! But if that's not possible, then a great mood changer is having a story together. Reading seems to soothe all of us, and the cuddles and closeness remind me of why being a mum is brilliant.
- dharmaflyer said...
We make a den - lots of pillows, blankets and pegs. If it's a sunny day it serves as a sunshade. If it's a rainy day then it's an indoor tent. We made one in my little boys bedroom yesterday and he slept in it, with his sleeping bag and pillow, all night!
- nikki r said...
first of all you have such a beautiful little family. every time i visit.. i smile. i got our idea from cookie mag i take out dry goods (oat meal, noodles, sugar, lentils etc..) and just let them cook. when i have enough energy and don't mind the clean up i add water and food coloring. it's a blast and keeps every one busy for at least an hour. we also would not make it with out charlie and lola.
Hey Sharilyn
I do not have children of my own, but I was a nanny for a few years for a family of 5 children. A lot of times I couldn't even begin to think of things to do...so, we would get in the car and I would ask "Who wants to go on an adventure?" Or adventures consisted of going to home supply stores to look and imagine that we were building a house and what colors of paint and such we would use. We went to tour chocolate factories, we also went to museums and to the park and the beach. Now with having so many outdoor adventures, some times indoor adventures were just as grand! We built forts with blankets and pillows, we would play hide and seek, and of course they loved to help clean and bake. We started writing our own songs and stories and had lots of fun. I hope you are fealing better! - 7:54 AM
Hi Sharilyn!
Mother and daughter time - they are always special. Asking our kids "what they want to do with mommy" as their special time is always memorable to them. Sometimes we get so busy thinking that we forget to ask what "they" want. Whether in words or showing their actions as answer - you'll be surprise! Most of the time they end up with suggestions with activities that MOM likes :) - 9:50 AM
- Making of a Montessori Mum said...
We have trays of water and sand, some containers, buckets etc. Away she goes on her own easily for 30mins to an hour...sometimes more!
Cushions, blankets and other soft things at the end of our hallway. She runs and jumps on them numerous times. And then they are great for lying and giggling on.
Walking, walking, walking. Even on cold, windy days. - 3:19 AM
- Ransacked Goods said...
I was eager to read other peoples suggestions and there are some good ones above. I totally agree that water is one of our favorite activities... watering plants, feeding fish, getting really muddy. We take my daughter's baby doll for walks and she shows her the neighborhood and "tends" to her. For indoor activities stickers are really popular, baking and measuring, painting toenails, hide & seek. Lately we've been heading out to the car parked outside and just sit in it up front together and make up adventures - loves it.
- Fiona @ Feebeez said...
Playdough and a packet of goggly eyes. Oh the things they create with that. Keeps them going for ages. The latest craze is 'biscuits' with eyes in them. The distraction only works if they can have my cooking trays/muffin tins etc.
Rice or beans and some measuring spoons, jugs, funnels etc. Creates a mess but a quick sweep fixes things quickly. Be careful of the age of your kids and choking hazards. To reduce the mess, set the supplies up inside an inflated dry wading pool.
Pedicure time :) with lots of foot soaking.
Scavenger hunt. Search for colours, shapes, things that start with a certain sound or a certain letter.
Treasure hunt. (Cleaning the house in disguise). Find objects out of place and put them where they should belong.
Cleaning the windows or washing the walls. Something iinvolving a bucket of water!
Shaving foam in a tray for 'finger painting'. - 5:55 AM
- Kathe said...
I no longer have a baby to bathe with, but I find still, when I am feeling "niggily, unsettled, bored or itchy...take a bath! It just helps me settle. I vote also for baking, setting up a simple tea...our cat was always invited or snuggling in front of a wonderful movie.
- travelingmama said...
I was looking for your e-mail but I couldn't find it, so I just thought I'd leave you another comment. I just started a new series on my blog which features creative spaces. I was wondering if I could have your permission to post photos of your space? Thanks so much!
Tina (aka Travelingmama)
PS I love taking baths with my kids to relax too! - 1:28 AM

what and adorable photograph!!! Sooo cute :-)
My 2.5 year old daughter loves a plastic spray bottle with the nozzle on fine mist. Her squirter. We fill it with vinegar to clean the windows - she squirts, I wipe, completely low energy activity for me and the house gets cleaned too. When the weather is good, I fill it with water and she sprays the leaves/plants/ground - hours of entertainment. A little spade with 2 buckets and some dirt is a good one too - filling, emptying, filling again.
- Susana Estevam said...
I think that is the best solution! Or give him the paint and paint brush so he can get really dirty! Or even better do something very silly so you both can have a good laugh!
One day I had one of those moments the radio was on, "Billy Jean" came on I started dancing, the baby laugh, so I laugh and after that things were better! - 3:46 PM
- unha said...
hehe. so cute.
i do the same with my kids.
but tub is small for all of us!
so i put j + a. :)
we sometimes make a "castle" out of couch cushions and fatboy beanbag. and we just roll around.
stay cool!

Today my three year old and I cleaned the house while the baby napped. He helped squirt the vinegar/water solution on the windows and wiped it off with a paper towel. Mostly he was the dispenser of cleaning products, but it was still a productive and fun way to pass the time together.

Go outside, go for a walk, bake or cook, do puzzles (very calming for my 3 year old), play and snuggle on the bean bag, and make up stories along the lines of the children's book "If you give a moose a muffin" except we insert their names and preferred treat (If you give Ian a pancake...) and then have them contribute to the plot. Puppets dancing to music are also regular tricks around our house, too. Have fun!
