A great article in Christian Science Monitor on what the army knew about Malik Hasan at Fort Hood. Could an anonymous reporting system have helped to get this information from someone at Fort Hood who would have reported information if he/she would be anonymous. Something to think about.

Everyday new thumb saving shortcuts arise. But for the uninitiated they represent a new and expanding language. According to NetLingo, more than 2,000 abbreviations (instances of this new language) have so far been added to the lexicon. Two handy distillers of the new lingo are NetLing.com and UrbanDictionary.com. HAND (have a nice day).

Best overview of what freshmen (women) students need to watch out for!
By rgoodman | July 20, 2009

It’s not meant as a ’scary movie’ but rather a sober visualization of reality. Resiligence highly recommends that students, and parents, view and discuss the scenarios raised. 5 ***** http://www.cohncreativegroup.com/columbia/
