I have been so busy with party preparations, the party or recovering from the party that I haven't had time to sit and write. Trying to get back on the writing as of yesterday...
There were a few articles I read in the past week that I
wanted to share, but I never got around to it. So, here they are. And some will be old news...
I was vaguely listening to NPR the other day, and I caught the end of this story about a woman who chose her suicide date very carefully with her family. I had to go back to the site to listen/read the whole story. Here it is, if you are interested.
There have been quite a few lovely graduation stories in the newspapers lately ... this is a late entry, but well worth the read. It is about a young woman is foster care who profited from a program that helps advise foster youth on how to get through high school and to college.
Not because it is great news or even a good read, but because I value a follow up story, here is one about that LAUSD advisory board kerfuffle. Turns out something changed their minds about pushing out the architect.
There was a little drought/global warning media push this past week ... a story about what global warming looks like, in real life; how the Getty Center and the Getty Villa are responding to calls to conserve water in California; and trying to find an upside to the drought, scientists looks at slowing of sudden oak death spread.
I have ton more open in my browser, some of them might make the NRU cut for next week, so, more old news (but hopefully good reads) coming up...
[Oh... my NRUs are often super LA Times heavy -- and I know they only let you read a few articles, if you want to see one and you have been blocked out, send me an email. I can send you a pdf of the article.]
