I was on the local news

So I was on the local news last night and this morning. The network happened to be Fox, and they got one fact incorrect, but they did a good job on their story anyway. I, of course, had to use my old name, but that is to be expected.

On a related note (to the name thing), yesterday I used my old name with someone who knows my new name. He was startled. It was just after I left work though, and I was still in work mode, so it was understandable.

How NUJLS has impacted my life

So I wrote a little article for a newsletter on the title topic. I think it's excellent, and after it goes out I'll post it here.

South Bend Politics

So in South Bend, where I grew up, there is a mayoral election coming up. The Republican challenger has made the campaign extremely negative, whereas the Democratic incumbent has stayed as positive as possible. I hope that he wins.

Anyway, a group started called Citizens for Progress through Hope not Fear. It wants to rise above the negativity and put forward a positive image of South Bend. Although this is a real struggle for me, I am trying to work at thinking about positive things about South Bend and you can read them in my other blog (as I blog them) at kythester.blogspot.com.
