Perils of Digital Technology – Mike Wittmer on some of the perils of living as high-tech people in a high-tech world.

Teen Mom Kills Intruder – Denny Burk: “There are some stories that you hear that you know you’ll never forget. This is one of them.” It is the story of a teenaged mom who was forced to defend herself and her baby.

Journalling Tips – “So you decided to start journalling as your new year resolution and don’t know where to start?
