  Posted by Justonehumbletruthseeker from Washington Post
  Five Bulgarian nurses and one Palestinian doctor have been charged with the death sentence on claims of infecting 426 Libyan children with the AIDS virus, though independent researchers have stated the infection probably occured before their arrival due to poor hygiene in the hospitals. http://www.nestesami.bg/main/home.php?lang=_en

- A Proposal to Ban Spanking Sparks Debate
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  I think this is a fascinating and important topic. I promise to blog more about this soon: The governor said that when disciplining his four children, he and his wife, Maria Shriver, declined to spank. “I think any time we try to pass laws that say you’ve got to protect the kids, it’s, in general, always good,” he added.

  They are stealing out children and the lives of parents across the country. Angelina Alexander's story is the story of thousands of parents left with empty homes and hearts. Angelina's God Mother is a Congresswoman. If it can happen to her it can happen to any of us. You need to know.

- AIDS in India
  Posted by Justonehumbletruthseeker from Reuters UK
  Did you know that families in India "often disown their HIV-positive family members"? Or that children with AIDS could be kicked out of schools and/or orphanages? Or that people may be denied housing by landlords if they have AIDS?

None Dare Call It Child Care

And we have thousands of homeless, mentally ill people (many veterans of the Vietnam war) out on the streets every night. This country lacks a lot of consciousness – yet it is righteous that it is the most ethical, most moral in the world.
