vrijdag 23 juli 2010 Up at 1:58. Turn on France 24. Report - Trafigura Found Guilty In Ivory Coast Toxic-waste Case. There's a lot a buzz about this. A Dutch court on Friday slapped a one-million-euro (1.3-million-dollar) fine on a Swiss-based company whose chartered ship dumped waste alleged by Ivory Coast to have killed 17 people. Back to bed. Need more sleep. Awake before alarm. Turn on Stephanie Miller. They talk mostly about the bogus, conservative media and how they are unconnecting the dots constantly and making fake connections to further their agenda. The live blog gives us Rachel Maddow's comments as an example - Fox News' Impact On Race Relations. We also get insights into Bill O'Reilly's ratings... Bill-O is eclipsed by Deadliest Catch, The Closer, WWE Wrestling, Spongebob Squarepants, reruns of NCIS and Hanna Montanna.

Rice and lox for breakfast. Shower. Walk around First Hill. Stop by Kaladi to get a cup of Jeremiah's delicious coffee. Walk up to Bartell Drugs to get a fresh battery for my bike's odometer. To work. The schedule is late. Michelle is working on it. 10 to 11 - Breaks for Pam in Sea Otters, up to Trailblazers for Jessica's break. Blue play-doh at one table. Outside to give Kenn a break. 10:45 to 12 - Nap mat set up for Wildflowers and lunch set up for Starfish and Seahorses. A lot to do... but I can do it. 12 - Renee's lunch. six Starfish are done with lunch and going down for naps. 1 - Cristin's lunch. The Starfish keep sleeping. They're good nappers today. 2 - Over to Summer Camp for Darnell's. The Summer Campers are already settled down for "rest time." (It's more like Can-I-Go-To-The-Bathroom-Again, Mike?) Geez! "Just lay on your mat and rest," I say. Walk up to Capitol Hill and down B'way. I can hear the Capitol Hill Block Party. I test my odometer on a test ride around Capitol Hill. I hear some sincere rapping. It's Macklemore.

It's really busy in the neighborhood for a leisurely bike ride. My neighbor is packed up and ready to go. I give her my blog address - Mike Looks Back. She's moving to Boston. I tell her, "It's a crazy, silly blog, but you can check in on Seattle." I'm tired. Turn on KOMO News. Boring... the Barefoot Bomber. Nice to get a Twitter from Hal Sparks. He wants to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show at E Street Cinema in D. C. Wish to be there. With a bit of a mind flip... You're there in the time slip! I can watch it on U Stream.

Watch episode of South Park - You Have 0 Friends. Poor Stan. He really doesn't want anything to do with Social Networking. Tron becomes a metaphor for Facebook.
