Sept 11th

I'm asking every single one of my readers to go back in time, to the day America lost 2996 loved ones. You recall it don't you? It seems no matter where any of us might have been on that day, Sept. 11th, we felt the fear, the sadness and the horror that was happening to those in New York. There is nothing that will ever make the images that we saw, whether we were standing in front of our televisions watching it unfold, or if we ran from the shadows of the buildings that were collapsing- the images will continue to haunt us forever.
Right now is your chance to stand up and 2996 people lost their lives, and now we are in need of 2996 people willing to take the time to remember those we lost, and join in the Tribute to the hero's of 9-11 blogging event.
This is how it works, you sign up here... and a name will be sent to you. You then have until the anniversary to work on a tribute to them. Those with blogs are asked to post it as part of what I imagine to be one of the biggest blog bursts, and certainly the most important. If you do not have a blog, you still may participate. All that is required is that you find a willing blogger who will publish your post for you. For those reading this- I'm willing if you are interested.
Now, I have signed up of course, and have been given the honor of writing about Digna Alexandra Rivera Costanza. So, for those of you that happen to pop in here on a search and find this post, please come back and visit- even if it's only to see the tribute, and find the links to others who are participating in this event.

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation. The White ...

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
