FIELD REPORT DU HQ | From Wherever It May Be Said<\/strong><\/p>\n

Like usual, I have plenty to report about and not enough time or energy to pound it all out, so we have yet another article drought here at CUBlog<\/span><\/strong>. After I ruminate on \u201cthe season\u201d next week, I\u2019ll climb out of the ditch and resume posting on our indigenous cinema, but for now let\u2019s concentrate on helping neighbors and our country. A donation engine powered by Public Good<\/strong> and sponsored by CNN<\/strong> can be accessed through this article<\/a><\/span> if you\u2019d like to pick and choose where to donate moneys and help those affected by the rounds of tornadoes and storms that have hammered Kentucky<\/strong> and other states in the South and Midwest over the last week. Please contribute however you can, wherever it\u2019s needed. Thank you.<\/p>\n
