  • There are so many people/ places in desperate need around the world. It hurts my heart to think of us NOT helping. Yet, just as we do in our own families, the USA must look first to which of our own has urgent needs and is without sufficient resources.

• Possible suicide string has Cornell on edge

  Tue Mar 16, 2010
  • One comment had me saying "hmmmm-never thought of that"........ the idea that being drunk (or stoned on drugs) might lead to unintentional falls later interpreted as suicides. Wonder if autopsies are mandatory

  • As I write this a woman is holding a press conference-live on MSNBC. She came to the mike laughing and smiling and joking with the reporters. She said the body found is a child but ID has not been made. I can't believe this spokesperson for the police is so light hearted.

• Alleged shooter tied to mosque of 9/11 hijackers

  Sun Nov 8, 2009
  • The Iman praised him for killing soldiers who would kill Muslims. What about Muslims all around the world who kill other Muslims? Not a day goes by that one sect isn't killing members of another. Reminds me of a couple of hundred years ago when Catholics and
