More Fun From #BEA

Totally falling for this cheap and wonderful play for the heart strings. Puppies! Cute Puppies! To quote Joan Plowright in #101Dalmatians: The Puppies are Here!

Don’t worry: No puppies were drowned in the making of Underwater Puppies. Photographer Seth Casteel says his shoots actually doubled as pool safety lessons:

So many people forget that our swimming pools, as much fun as they are, they are a danger, and they can be a danger to … our fur children. … I mean, a lot of these puppies I work with — for Underwater PuppiesI worked with over 1,500 — all it took was just a few times, putting them in the water and teaching them where the exit is, and they figured it out.

Ted declines Harvard’s offer

Exclusive excerpt from Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s “The Kid”: Unlike many professional ballplayers—probably most of them—Ted was embarrassed that he never went to college, or had no formal education beyond high school. In 1991, on the 50th anniversary of his .406 year, Harvard University wanted to give him an honorary degree, but he turned it down, feeling that he would have been out of place among the intelligentsia in Harvard Yard.

And then this happened. Just another Tuesday at the office. #Elephant #Tembe w/ @joanniejohnst & @zulunyala
