georgia/russia crisis


it makes me so sad to see that this terrible conflict is taking backseat to olympic coverage. to read that russia is blatantly ignoring cease-fire opportunities and continues to needlessly bomb this poor country is simply abhorrent.

the new york times published this heartwrenching collection of images of what's going on over there.

i don't mean to be such a downer, and i love watching the olympics, but this story shouldn't continue to be overshadowed.
