Bits & Pieces of today's dig on CRS and Haiti

Note: Unloading containers, then MOVING containers (off the dock).
Other CRS personnel worked to unload a rare site in Port-au-Prince—a ship that docked at the one working berth in the heavily-damaged harbor. It carried 2,100 metric tons of food from the USAID Food for Peace program. Getting these containers, mainly filled with grain and vegetable oil, off the dock and to warehouses along the city’s devastated roadways is the next challenge. “It may look to many in the rest of the world that those in need are not receiving any aid, but actually thousands here in Port-au-Prince have gotten help.
It goes on that Catholic Charities is working on AIDS hospitals and getting them back up and running and that seems 'stoopid' when the immediate need is life-saving urgency.
There was a post a while back about AIDS being delivered to 3rd world nations in blood supplies. Does this article link to all that?
CRS Health & HIV Technical Advisor Kristin Weinhauer. Scandals involving working on and promoting condom usage and other contraceptives (against Church doctrine), support and donations to Planned Parenthood and like institutions and candidates. Was part of development team of OVC Wellbeing Tool. This is a self-reporting questionnaire that, for the life of me, seems ridiculous and arbitrary. It's almost as if it's a crude checklist of vetting children for other purposes.
