| Note from the Managing Editor |
My assistant Meaghen and her husband David are happy. They brought their little Joseph home from the hospital last Friday. They're managing well and have help close by if they need it. Thank you again for your prayers for the Gonzalez family.
While Meaghen is learning a new set of ropes in being a mother — and getting comfortable with the medical procedures involved in looking after her new born — I'll be holding down the fort for the next while. Please excuse me for not sending an introductory note out along with this update. - J. Fraser Field

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

| CWReport |
