From Denny: This was to be expected from the Party of No Conscience. Their latest dirty dealing from the army of lobbyist lawyers was to try and find some arcane detail to call the health bill null and void "as Social Security might be affected and Social Security is not allowed to be addressed with reconciliation."

 Find out the latest GOP efforts to derail the health care bill that was passed by the House Sunday. By the time the public gets through with all this health care media coverage all of us will be well versed in our national law governing the House and Senate. Pass law school and go directly into your law practice. :)

Keith Olbermann rips these guys to shreds, shining a light onto the true perspective and reality of their silly efforts.

Mission of Hope Run by American in Haiti

From Denny: A few years before the disaster struck in Haiti, American Brad Johnson decided to move there and help the people in his parents' ongoing Christian mission to Haiti. He was in a unique position to help after the earthquake as he already had an established school, an orphanage and a medical clinic operating, along with plenty of supplies. His mission is just outside of Port-au-Prince. He is busy distributing supplies to survivors and has been within hours of when the disaster hit.

From Denny: This is an interesting study to back up other studies about the brain and development. From other posts I've done on the brain and children - and what is not mentioned here - is that when experiencing stress the brain is bathed in stress chemicals. Those stress chemicals inhibit the brain from learning. Abused children experience long term stress, long term batheing the brain in stress chemicals and so do not easily experience success in the world as adults.

Video: Transforming Inner City Blight

From Denny: I really like these kind of stories where people go into inner cities and turn city blight back into thriving communities by building new AND affordable homes. Listen to their story of those who did well for themselves and then came back to give back to the community! From NBC News' Making a Difference segment.
