Here are a few articles that have caught my eye this week:
- Cruisers Overboard Again?: I've been on several cruises, and wondering if people can fall, or even jump off a ship is a topic of conversation that comes up at least once per trip. But now it has happened twice in one month? Check out these stories: Cruise Line Probing Overboard Fall and Coast Guard finds man who jumped off ship.
- The Number of People Affected by Alzheimer's is Growing: Report: 5M Live With Alzheimer's. My mother is one of them, and we pray everyday for advances in healthcare so other families won't have to suffer the pain we have lived with for three years.
- Are You Kidding Me? A Pre-Abortion Ultrasound Requirement?: Abortion ultrasound-viewing advances in S.C. Regardless of my personal views on abortion, this article (well not the article, but the S.C. government really) made me pretty angry.
- Colleges Tackle Suicide: New statistics on college students committing or attempting suicide have lead some colleges to address the problem. Check out The suicide test.
- More Devastation From Mother Nature: Reports of Solomons tsunami devastation grow.
- Fuel for Both Sides of the Mommy Wars: Day Care Debate Continues and Will you regret staying home with your baby? I have been both a working and a stay-at-home mom, but I found the second article particularly offensive. I thought through my decision to stay home for a few years very carefully, but I had respect for those who made different choices. 'Nuf said.
