I really don't have that much I'd like to say at the moment regarding yesterday's races, other than I'm really disappointed that my dad didn't defeat Donna Miller and that Damon didn't do better against Verna (I will have more to say on both of these races in the near future, but today I just need to decompress). I am, on the other hand, extremely excited that Nutter and Maria won (as well as some good judges, like Linda Carpenter). But above all I am relieved that the election is behind us and we can now move on to discussing and trying to address the issues that concern us.

With that in mind I wanted to pass some info about a book signing event tonight, for Ilona Meagher's very important book on PTSD Moving a Nation to Care: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and America's Returning Troops. I have been working online with Ilona to bring attention to issues related to PTSD and the treatment of returning soldiers for over a year, and I can tell you that she is an absolutely amazing person, who has made it her mission in life to bring care to our returning men and women in uniform.

If you are around and can make it, please come out and support Ilona in her quest to bring our soldiers the help they need as they readjust to civilian life. The invite is after the jump...

"More than a book signing, it's a community pow wow and brainstorming session to support our troops."
