We Apologize

Claire thought that we should tie in a blog post to a current event, so I chose one at random...

When the sun went down in Silver Spring, MD, their voices did not. "Allah O Akbar!" the crowds on the tops of building chanted over and over. The phrase, which means, "God is great," has become a rallying cry for protesting Iranians who have risked their lives and clashed with Juliet-led riot police because they believe the nation's recent presidential election was rigged.

It was later confirmed that Juliet didn't understand the situation, Iranian or English yet (or could see more than 18 inches in front of her face), so the clash was a hasty move. We apologize to those who caught the worst of it.
