We recently received a lovely valentine in the mail from Ronald McDonald House, to which we provide background checks at a discount. It included a touching story about a child who was given a second chance at life. Read below for Trinity’s story.
This is Trinity, who received a heart transplant last Valentine’s Day. Just over a year ago, doctors in her home state told her family to call in hospice. Thanks to you and the team at Cincinnati Children’s who went through heroic measures to save her, today she is thriving. Your support made it possible for Trinity’s family to find rest, love and support at our House while their daughter received the gift of a new heart and a new chance at life.
Please give the enclosed balloon to a child or a friend in your life and share with them the difference Ronald McDonald House makes in the lives of families like Trinity’s. We simply couldn’t do it without friends like you.
Thank you so much for your support. We appreciate your help in keeping our families safe.

According to a recent article, the Pope will not show leniency towards pedophile priests and has set up a commission of experts, who among other duties, will consider ways to better screen priests. Local Dioceses are also taking steps to further protect their children and prevent pedophiles from being hired into the church.

Mosigner Charles Scicluna, the former sex crimes prosecutor, stated in a recent article found on the Ecumenial News website, that Pope Francis will not show leniency towards pedophile and pederast priests because truth and justice are more important than protecting the Church. The Pope, who was elected last March, set up a commission of experts last month to address sexual abuse within the Catholic Church, in his first major step to tackle this issue. The group will consider ways to better screen priests, protect minors and help victims in the face of charges the Vatican has not done enough to guard the vulnerable or make amends.

A Tentative Nonconfirmation (TNC) is issued if there is a record mismatch that needs to be resolved before the employee can be confirmed as work authorized. In 2013, E-Verify launched a new customer service enhancement that will allow email notification to employees of a TNC at the same time it notifies the employer.
This latest enhancement to E-Verify is made possible by the new Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9. Employees will notice a new optional data field in Section 1 of the revised Form I-9 asking for the employee’s email address; this update allows employees to voluntarily provide their email address. When the employee provides an email address on Form I-9, employers must enter it into E-Verify. The new email notification process does not replace the current TNC process. Employers are still required to notify employees of TNCs and their right to contest.
A TNC means that the information entered in E-Verify from the Form I-9 did not match government records. A TNC case result does not necessarily mean that the employee is not authorized to work in the United States.
There are four possible emails an employee may receive from E-Verify. Please read below for a description and a sample of each:
- If a TNC is received, employees who have provided an email address on Form I-9 will be automatically notified by E-Verify.
- An email will be sent to the employee when the case is referred to SSA or DHS.
- An additional email will be sent when an employee:
- Provides a valid email address in Section 1 of Form I-9 and
- Receives a TNC and decides to contest (take action to try to resolve) and
- The employer refers the case to DHS or SSA and
- The employee has not contacted DHS or SSA within four days of the date that the case was referred
- This email is unrelated to a TNC. When E-Verify confirms employment eligibility for a naturalized citizen of the United States according to DHS records, but also finds that records with SSA have not been updated since the employee naturalized, the email will advise the employee to visit a SSA field office to update the record:
