David Jay of the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center gave me and my colleague Lievanna Gore (not pictured) a tour of the facility on Jan. 13. As supporters of the hospital, we were happy to see and learn how well the nurses and doctors of CCMC care for the thousands of kids who come through the center’s doors each year.

An alarming number of teens and tweens are in abusive relationships. But many can’t read the early danger signals – putdowns, excessive texting and other controlling behavior – and many don’t know what to do when they realize the relationship is unhealthy. Four experts from across the region will talk about what’s behind the high number of young abusers and victims, and how to stop the violence at the upcoming Hartford Courant & FOX CT Key Issues Forum, “Teen Dating Violence: How to spot it. What to do about it.” The forum will be held on Tuesday, Feb. 9, from 5 to 6:15 p.m. at the University of Hartford’s Wilde Auditorium. The university is located at 200 Bloomfield Avenue in West Hartford. The fourm is presented by the Hartford Courant and FOX CT, in partnership with the University of Hartford. To register, e-mail corpaffairs@courant.com or call 860-241-3614.



On January 6, Courant columnist Colin McEnroe appeared on NPR’s Talk of the Nation to discuss Dodd’s decision not to seek reelection as well as the political ramifications from the failed attack on Northwest Flight 253.
