dinsdag 20 september 2011 Up at 12:34. Turn on France 24. Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is rather upset about this... S & P Downgrades Italy's Credit Rating By One Notch To A/A-1. Italy’s debt burden of 120 percent of GDP is the second highest in the eurozone after Greece.

I like Web News. Web users divided over creation of a Palestinian state. Also, US poverty is mapped.

Doze back into a light sleep. Dream about kids at school. Wake up again. Hummus on toast for breakfast. Watch a little KOMO News. Switch to Stephanie Miller. She chats with John Nichols about the shady behavior WI Gov. Scott Walker. Report in The Nation - Wisconsin Governor Walker Stonewalls as FBI Raids Home of Top Political Aide. Michael Moore is on the show today, too. Walk up Terry to work. Listen to Weekday - Harvest Throw-Down: The Farmers Market Taste-Off on my way. Interesting to hear the people - with their highly educated palates - describe green beans and tomatoes to buy for their restaurants. 10 - Breaks for Pam, Anne, Toni and Sharon. I'm either in the Bike Room or on the playground. I find a bottle of bubbles for the kids on the playground. Hooray! 11 - Cristin's lunch. Sharon is subbing from Olivia today. Going inside from the playground is orderly. The 8 Starfish sit down with Sharon for a brief circle time, but I manage to get 6 diapers done. 12 - Anne's lunch. The 6 Seahorses are having their first picnic lunch inside. No more plates and lunch prep for them. The kids seem more excited about packing up than really eating. I can't believe that we get from "excited" to "calm" so quickly. They read a few books before laying down on their mats for nap time. They're fast asleep in a manner of minutes. (But we have one-napper.) 1 - Toni's lunch. Most of the Seahorses are resting peacefully. 2 - Sharon's lunch. A fairly restful hour. The kids wake up one-by-one. We serve snake a little early. Bye, kids. I walk home listening to The World. I am sad to hear about so much unnecessary suffering. As the global economy enters a dangerous stage, more and more people are committing suicide. Suicides are on the rise in those European countries suffering the most from the economic crisis - Slump Causes Suicide Spike. Drop off stuff at home. Take a long walk up Pike and back down University. Settle down with the good news... I Survived D.A.D.T. They celebrate on B'way. MSNBC has an amazing report - Soldier Tells Dad He's Gay On YouTube. Amazing.

Rice and tofu for dinner. Watch Star Trek Voyager - Drive and Repression.
