Billboard companies often get a bum rap from all manner of groups complaining about how their signs are despoiling the countryside. But that doesn't make them a heartless lot.
Look no further than I-190 between Buffalo and Niagara Falls. Alongside the road, a billboard owned by Lamar Outdoor Advertising reads: "Buy a home for autism."
Where’s Molly
Since he was 6 years old, Jeff Daly kept asking that question. When his sister was not yet three, she was taken from their "perfect" home never to return. While his parents refused to talk about Molly, Jeff was left to wonder and to mourn the mystical sudden loss of his only sister. Now 47 years later, Jeff finally learns the truth to the family secret that left him from his sister in a family reunion that will warm your heart and give hope for the future of "less that perfect" people like Molly.
Summaries from some recent Internet articles on disability-related topics:
Medical Ethics: Address of Pope Benedict XVI to the International Congress of Catholic Pharmacists on Oct. 29, 2007 The pope encouraged the pharmacists to "… find in the life of faith and in the Church’s teaching elements that will guide you in your professional approach to the sick, who are in need of human and moral support if they are to live with hope and find inner resources that will help them throughout their lives." He invited them to "…address the issue of conscientious objection, which is a right your profession must recognize, permitting you not to collaborate either directly or indirectly by supplying products for the purpose of decisions that are clearly immoral such as, for example, abortion or euthanasia."
