Whether on- or off-topic for your blog, there are times when participation in a group blog project just feels right. Blog Action Day is one of those for me. Plus, any topic that lets us pause in our obsession with our American Presidential Campaign feels like a healthy use of brain waves.

As a participant in Blog Action Day 2008, I asked everyone I know for information on programs (actual or planned) which combat poverty.
Since distributing that appeal for information in August, the numbers of those facing impoverishment may have risen due to economic woes confronting the world. It’s a confusing time when some of those who [...]
