Jared Harris, left,
portraying Professor James Moriarty, and Robert Downey Jr., portraying
Sherlock Holmes, are shown in a scene from "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of
Shadows." Moriarty, who has loomed as the grandfather of all super-villains,
is played with cool, quiet, chilling detachment by Harris. Although
the top earner for the week, the movie only brought in $40 million.
Plan ahead.
Make sure you have the things you need to make the
day stress-free. If you are going to nurse in public,
make sure you have a nursing cover or receiving blanket
handy to give yourself a little privacy. If a nursing
pillow helps, bring that along too!
