In my early years, my older sister, Linda, and I were Air Force brats. Before our father retired after 22 years in the Air Force, we lived in places like Japan, Okinawa and Marquette, Michigan, to name a few. Living the military life, you rely on family more than usual.

This past Friday, state commerce officials opened bids to allow natural gas drilling just one mile underneath the northern section of the Ohio River. The bids allow companies to use hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, to stimulate the wells, posing a significant risk to the Ohio Valley's primary water supply. Not only that, but there is a fault line located amidst the…[...]

In 1990, the U.S. Congress established the first full week of October as Mental Illness Awareness Week. Coinciding with awareness week is the National Day of Prayer for Mental Illness Recovery and Understanding (October 7, 2014).
