A few stories that I found fascinating this week

1. South Sudan quashes coup attempt, says President Kiir  – One of my acquaintances has been traveling in Juba with others as the initial coup happened. Luckily, they evacuated shortly after. The South Sudan has seen so much fighting. I wish for peace for the people there.
2. Evidence in the effects of neglect in a child’s brain – Astonishing to see!
3. Texts between a father and his son during the Arapahoe shooting – This really got to me.      
   
4. 

   Amazing new Battle of the Bulge photos – Truly fascinating to look at!
