Update
It seems that the young girl I talked about in the last post has returned home safely.
As Steven says:
“Now she, her family and friends start the real work of trying to put their relationships back together.”
Best of luck to them!

These sorts of things always break my heart. First this morning I learned that a good online friend of mine’s seven month old son, Jayden, has viral meningitis. That’s not as bad as the bacterial strain but it’s troubling just the same for a seven-month old to have to deal with. Secondly is the 12…
Pin I have been on record saying that if you truly believe in a cause, and the importance of it, you need to be the first to call out untruths.
I’ve said it about false rape allegations, false child abuse allegations, fake hate crimes, etc.

Simply being in possession of that video is a crime….
Reading through the blogroll over lunch today I discovered two very important events that had taken place this week. I learned that Farid and George had won a business plan contest, gaining $10,000 to help startup their restaurant. And then, as I continued reading I learned that Andrea passed away from the cancer that she…
No, what we need are not more registries. We need something much more comprehensive than that, something that will take more work than that, and something that focuses so much more on the children being abused and how to help them than on anything else, especially things that make us feel safer without providing much benefit at all.
I saw this post a couple of days ago and made a mental note to point to it. Then, as has been the case too often lately, I got busy and forgot. I’m trying to make up for that now. It’s a post with links to news stories about Chris Witty, Olympic SpeedSkater, US flagholder…
