USA Recruits Wanted Garrison and Light Duty Corps of Honor Pay, Clothing &c Same as in the Regular Army" with smaller print explaining where and how to sign up; read more about the Invalid Corps, later the Veteran Reserve Corps, here.]

Connie Kuusisto is your host for this fine edition, posted at [with]tv, with the theme "Disability and the Media." In this case, media includes "legacy" formats like newspapers and television, but also new media like Flickr and YouTube. Check it out for takes on disability in Bollywood film, Amazon women, the Empowered Fe-Fes, poetry, Oprah, Dr. Phil, sport reporting, advertising, educational funding, you name it.

We're back on the twice-a-month schedule in the new year, with the next edition (#30) scheduled for January 24, to be hosted at Ryn Tales, with the theme "What professionals should know." This is your chance to tell medical, educational, and other professionals how to serve YOU better. Submissions are welcome at the blogcarnival.com form, OR in emails to me or Ryn, OR in comments here or there--as usual, the host will consider all entries made up through Monday evening before the Thursday carnival posts.
