I'm just going to post a short open thread as I'll be busy again today. Beside today being our wedding anniversary, and the 19th year of my sobriety, I'm going to be getting some running done. So here are a couple things to check out, or talk about what's on your mind.
Child abuse rose 66% from 2,000 to 2,005 in Iowa according to a QC Times story by Charlotte Eby. Claim is direct connection to income. State officials have aggressively reached out to those eligible for food stamps to enroll them in the federally funded program rather than waiting for them to seek assistance. A record 233,000 Iowans were receiving food stamps in October, up from 154,000 in July 2003. Go to the QC Times.
The other thing is a letter to the editor from a young man who experienced the Summit program first hand. It seems to have made a difference in his life. Go to the
story on it.
