Girl fun!

My daughter loves this! We are able to take it with us to Nana's house and it is holding up well! She is only 2 so is a bit rough with things still. A purchase to feel good about:)



Great little tea set!

This tea set was a hit with our 3 1/2 year old -- especially the case that it comes in. The fact that the set is tin and not porcelain was a selling point for us -- no broken pieces to get cut on and less worry of the handling by a 3 year old. We have had tea parties already and it has re-ignited her interest in her kitchen set. Great item!



worth every penny!!!

This is a great tea set for very little girls. I bought this for my daughters 2nd birthday and she LOVES it. She wants to eat lunch on it everyday. It is small if an adult is planning to join in, but it is the perfect size for little fingers. And I thought the pattern on this particular tea set was even more charming in person. 10 stars!!

No Clear Consensus at International Climate Talks

No Clear Consensus at International Climate Talks

United Nations talks on climate change are nearing a close with no clear consensus yet in sight. The meeting is aimed at laying the groundwork for progress at a major climate change meeting in Mexico later this year.

While many of the negotiators for a global climate change accord consider it a pressing issue, there is less agreement on how to share the burden of tackling the problem.
Last year, the international community failed to reach an agreement that included legally binding emissions reductions at a high-profile meeting in Copenhagen.
Precursor to Cancun meeting
This week's meeting in the Chinese port city of Tianjin is the precursor to the world's next big attempt, at Cancun, Mexico, later this year.

Jake Schmidt is with the U.S. environmental group, National Resources Defense Council. He says some countries in recent days appear to be stalling, by raising questions about procedural, rather than substantive issues, which could hamper efforts to produce a deal in Cancun.

"Instead of trying to produce a text which incorporated every single element that we could possibly envision, the chair proposed a set of, effectively, bullet points, that said here are the things that I think we can legitimately agree to in Cancun," Schmidt said. "And obviously there are going to be some things off that list. And the Chinese, Saudi Arabia and others, questioned whether or not the chair had the ability to do that."
Foundation for agreement
Schmidt says as of Thursday, he is pessimistic that this week's meeting will, in his words, "lay the foundation" for an agreement in Cancun

He says many countries appear to be ready to agree to things like reforestation efforts and technology adaptation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But they are not ready to agree on what he described as "the tougher things."

"Like whether or not they're going to formalize their international commitments, their commitments to reduce emissions, and whether or not they're going to agree to a set of transparency provisions," Schmidt added.
Causes
Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide released by burning fuels such as oil and coal, are thought to contribute to global warming.

One of the big sticking points is whether there should be binding targets to reduce emissions. Although China has overtaken the United States to become the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases, Beijing refuses to commit to targets because it says it is still a developing nation.
Solutions
Earlier in the week, Chinese State Councilor Dai Bingguo told the conference one of his country's top priorities is to develop the economy.

Dai says China's ability to control greenhouse gas emissions faces great pressure. He says the speed of industrialization and urbanization in the country is still quickening, which means its energy demand will also increase.
Delegates from nearly 200 countries began their meeting in Tianjin on Monday. The talks end Saturday.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tenga Wavy, August 8, 2010
By Wonderwoman27 (Austin, TX USA)
This is a good product. I got this and the Silky for my boyfriend and we both
love it! I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 because this is more strongly ribbed-
it's lined with thicker ribs than the silky- the silky is smoother, thinner, and
the lines are curved all around the inside. Much better suited for my guy. It's great
to try though, especially for the price and ships quickly and discreetly. If looking
for more lube (the lube inside is great), I would suggest ID Glide over some other things.
We're getting good use out of it, though it's gotten a bit stretched
at the top, developing a little bubble. It's easy to clean- soap and water. I picked the silky
and wavy based on other reviews from users. Good luck and enjoy!

9/11 anniversary arrives to tensions over Qur'an threat and mosque

9/11 anniversary arrives to tensions over Qur'an threat and mosque

New York's bells to toll at 8.46am local time, the moment the first hijacked plane hit the north tower on September 11 2001
Commemorations for the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks are under way in the US amid continued tensions over plans for an Islamic centre near Ground Zero and a threat to burn the Qur'an.


The main event is in New York, where the names of the 2,749 people who died in the attacks on the twin towers of the World Trade Centre will be read out by relatives.

Houses of worship across the city will toll their bells at 8.46am (13.46 GMT), the moment the first hijacked plane struck the north tower in 2001.

Barack and Michelle Obama will attend separate services in Washington and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, for the victims of hijacked planes that hit the Pentagon and a rural field nine years ago to the day.

The pastor behind the threat to burn hundreds of Qur'ans in Florida said the event had been cancelled permanently.

"We will definitely not burn the Qur'an, no," Terry Jones, head of a congregation of about 50 at the Dove World Outreach Centre in Gainesville, told NBC's Today show.

When pressed about whether his planned demonstration might happen at a later date, he said: "Not today, not ever."

Jones said no meeting had been set up with Feisal Abdul Rauf, the New York imam behind the plans for the Islamic centre.

Jones said his church's goal was "to expose that there is an element of Islam that is very dangerous and very radical" and claimed: "We have definitely accomplished that mission."

But his stunt still threatens to overshadow the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks as it inflamed tensions over the proposed mosque and Islamic cultural centre near Ground Zero. After the official commemorative services there will be anniversary rallies in New York for and against the centre, with more than 1,000 protesters on both sides expected to converge at the site, two blocks north of ground zero.

The heated debate, pitting advocates of religious freedom against critics who say the plan is disrespectful to the dead, has led the president to declare: "We are not at war against Islam."

The rallies have embroiled victims' family members in a feud over whether to play politics on the anniversary.

Nancy Nee, whose firefighter brother was killed at the World Trade Centre, has said she does not plan to join other family members at an anti-mosque rally after the anniversary ceremony but is opposed to the development.

"I just wanted to be as at peace with everything that's going on as I possibly can," Nee said.

She said her brother George Cain's death "is still very raw. ... and I just don't have it in me to be protesting and arguing, with anger in my heart and in my head".

Jim Riches, whose son Jimmy, also a firefighter, did in the attack, said he would join the protest.

"My son can't speak any more. He's been murdered by Muslims. I intend to voice my opinion against the location of this mosque," Riches said. "If someone wants to go home, that's their right. I have the right to go there."

ThinkFun Rush Hour

Editorial Review


Honk! Honk! It's gridlock and the little red car can't move. The player is a traffic cop in the Rush Hour Traffic Jam Puzzle where the objective is to get the red car off the road. To play, pick one of 40 challenge cards; solutions are printed on the back of each card. Then set up the cars and buses in a specified pattern on the 6-inch-square road grid. Move the vehicles one by one (obey those traffic laws!) until the red car can escape the traffic jam. There are four levels of difficulty. Kids can alternate turns with another player or just "play in traffic" alone. The game from Binary Arts received a national award from Mensa and is used in elementary school math classes. The design includes clear instructions printed on the sturdy box, which can be used both as a playing tray and for storage. The game cards stow away in a drawer in the road grid. This is a 1999 Parents' Choice recommended toy. --Marcie Bovetz

Product Description

Rush Hour is the mind-challenging game of pure bumper-to-bumper fun!

Four levels of play range from beginner to expert. Measures 9"W x 8"H x 2.5"D.

Harris Co. under flash flood watch because of Hermine

Heavy thunderstorms and possible flooding are likely today and much of the week as Tropical Storm Hermine marches north through the region, dumping up to 10 inches of rain in the hardest-hit areas.


The downpours gradually will taper off by the weekend when the storm heads northeast and out of the state and a ridge of high pressure spreads inland from the Gulf of Mexico, helping to dry out the region.

A flash flood watch is in effect today through Wednesday morning for Harris and surrounding counties as fast-moving Hermine, which slammed ashore in northern Mexico just south of Brownsville late Monday night, races toward the Hill Country and northern Texas.

The storm, which has winds of about 50 mph, is moving north-northwest at about 17 mph. Rain and high winds are lashing areas along South Padre Island and spots as far as away Dallas can expect to see heavy rain as the storm moves further inland.

Rough waves also are crashing along Galveston-area beaches, where a woman reportedly drowned after she was caught in a rip current off Jamaica Beach about 10:30 p.m. Monday, according to the National Weather Service.

Forecasters said some areas along the storm's path will receive 5 to 10 inches of rainfall. A tornado watch has been issued for areas west and southwest of Houston today.

Most spots will record 1 to 3 inches of rain. Some street flooding is possible, especially in low-lying areas.

Today, an 80 percent chance of thunderstorms is forecast. Some of the storms will be severe with high winds and heavy downpours. The high temperature will be near 86 degrees under cloudy skies. The low will be about 78.

The showers continue Wednesday, when a 50 percent chance of thunderstorms is likely. The high will be near 90 degrees and the low will be near 80.

Rain chances drop to 40 percent Thursday and 20 percent Friday as the remnants of Hermine move further north from the area. The high each day will be in the lower 90s and the low will be in the upper 70s.

A strong ridge of high pressure begins building above the northern Gulf by the weekend and spreads into the region, drying out the area.
