I suppose this is a longshot, but can anyone tell me the difference between federal expenditures and federal outlays? I wouldn't care too much except for this: The two lines are generally the same, but outlays show a big spike in Q3 of 2022 while expenditures don't. This spike is specifically in September, as you ...continue reading "What is the difference between outlays and expenditures?"
WOOD RIVER - Riverbend Family Ministries held its grand opening on Friday at their new location at 144 E. Ferguson Ave. in Wood River. Riverbend Family Ministries Executive Director Tammy Iskarous was beaming on Friday at the grand opening event. "We are finally in the whole building, and today is a celebration of a bunch of non-profits coming together to do incredible work and be able to move from the 7,000-square-foot building to this one," Iskarous said. "For 14 years, we helped families in crisis and ran out of room. In 2019, we bought this building - little did we know the world was going to shut down with the COVID-19 Pandemic. Then construction was going to take a little longer and it is now finished. "It seemed like we would never get this building open and I could not be more proud of this building or more thankful and for all the organizations across the board who do such hard work and work with families in crisis due to violence, addiction, homelessness.

EDWARDSVILLE – As part of their clinical practice, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville School of Pharmacy (SOP) students provide home visits for senior citizens in the area. The SOP students and faculty go further than only providing health checks to their senior patients.“I noticed that they have a hard time keeping up with some of the larger jobs around the yard, and the state of their yards presented real fall risks,” said Chris Lynch, PharmD, professor and director of clinical programs. "We started this program in 2017 to provide yard cleanups for local senior citizens. Having a group of energetic and altruistic students is a real godsend when it comes to this type of service.” Throughout April, the SOP students and faculty have set days to go out in the community to pull weeds, cut up large limbs downed in recent storms, plant flowers and help with various other yard jobs for senior citizens in the area. “It is always nice to see how much

The way the bill works is that it prohibits mobile app stores from offering TikTok to Montana residents and also just […]
Missouri’s marijuana market is on track to generate $1 billion in sales this year, making the state one of the top 10 cannabis markets in the U.S. just two months after recreational marijuana sales began.

On Thursday we learned that Clarence Thomas's billionaire friend, Harlan Crow, had bought some of Thomas's property at an above-market price and then spruced it up for Thomas's mother. Thomas disclosed none of this. Seems like an important story!
