Happy Anniversary to Me!

My marriage has made double digits! That's pretty good.

A lot has changed in the last ten years; I wonder what'll happen in the next ten!

• Willacy County Prison Taken Over By Thousands Of Inmates  "The large Kevlar tents that make up the facility were described in a 2014 report by the American Civil Liberties Union as not 'only foul, cramped and depressing, but also overcrowded.'  The report said that inmates reported that their medical concerns were often ignored by staff and that corners were often cut when it came to health care.  Brian McGiverin, a prisoners' rights attorney with the Texas Civil Rights Project, said that he was not surprised inadequate medical care could ignite a riot. He said medical care is grossly underfunded in prisons, especially in ones run by private contractors.  'It's pretty abysmal with regard to modern standards how people should be treated, pretty much anywhere you go,' he said."
