My son is doing a project on George Washington University and they've not responded to our mailed request for information. He needs to draw their coat of arms. The GWU website image that depicts this does not clearly show the features of this. Does anyone have an image of their coat of arms, or know where a better-quality one might be available?

Anyone seen the latest mummy article in the National Geographic. It depicts a 2 year old girl who died in 1920, nearly perfectly preserved. What do you think - beautiful or creepy?

If you haven't seen them, here's a link:

My sister just had a baby - and I was sharing birth stories with my stepmother when something occurred to me.....are there any BORING birth stories? Sure, some have a story that would qualify as a NORMAL birth, but no matter how you look at it - even a normal birth is amazing. If you have a c-section, you have had a surgery, which is insane considering that you have to care for a baby afterward. If you have a vaginal delivery - well, that one speaks for itself, I think. My mom was knocked out cold for the vaginal delivery of my brother and I, and I am still trying to figure out how that works. I would love it if someone could convince me that they've had a boring childbirth experience!

For watching America's Next Top Model? I certainly do. It goes against just about every aspect of my personality, but I can't seem to stop watching. I really enjoy seeing how the photos come out and the different techniques that they use during the photoshoots. But, I feel very dorky, nonetheless.
