Hopefully more people were prepared to enjoy the spectacular display of fireworks and talks as An American Salute to Heroes and Attention to important matters including #BlackLivesMatter.

Many grieved with us over the drowning on June 16th of 2009 of our late teen son Kaelan Alexander Palmer Paton near the Falls of the Housatonic River. Yet few realize the importance of having an investigation into such a turn of events even though there were all minors involved.

I am about to listen to a timely topic which is run through Fieldnotes to address timely topics around the world. The President of Fielding Katrina Rogers. It's amazing to learn more about the programs they offer in the social sciences with a focus on scholar-practitioners, flexible programming and more.  These are direct notes I am taking from the program...
