Hope for Hawaii

I am doing research in another class about the justice system and I found this great article on how a judge in Hawaii is making great changes in the drug court system there. Here is the link:

I love that stuff like this is so available on the internet! It makes researching topics much easier.

Mitt

The documentary on Netflix about Mitt Romney looks so good. I wish I had Netflix so I could watch it.  
He seems like a really nice guy in real life.

It seems that as soon as you get on the internet you are absolutely bombarded with information! Often this "news" is just trivial information, but there is so much of it it can be overwhelming! I sometimes don't even want to get on the internet because I know there is more information there than I know what to do with.

For anyone that doesn't know about her, Stephanie Nielson has a wonderful blog at nieniedialogues.blogspot.com. 
She is an amazing woman who was burned over 80% of her body in a plane crash but is a wonderful wife and mother and an inspiration to millions
She is a devout Mormon, and shares how her faith has helped her overcome her challenges. I have to say I think Stephanie is beautiful. To me there is something about her that makes her even more beautiful than before the plane crash.
What a wonderful use of media, to share her faith and be an inspiration to others!

I have been reading a series of articles on ksl.com about repairing your marriage. I have found these articles incredibly helpful and informative. I feel that articles like this can really help people in their relationships and their lives because they teach people how to deal with themselves and others in a positive way. Many people don't learn these skills at home, so I think it is great that there is all this information available to people so they can learn these relationship skills on their own.
Even if you are not married, this information can be really helpful in learning about how to deal with your own feelings about yourself and your future relationships.
