Miss America First Indian American, Archdiocese Review, Welfare Denials Rise

Miss America was crowned Sunday night in Atlantic City and she is Nina Davuluri, Miss New York. Davuluri is the first Indian American to wear the crown. Today she was to visit the scene of the boardwalk fire in Seaside Heights, but the trip was cancelled after learning Governor Christie was sending officials to meet with business owners at the same time.

The Archdiocese is planning to examine 46 parishes in Philadelphia, Bucks, Delaware and Montgomery Counties and assess their future viability. They will focus on economic challenges that threaten sustainability, such as geography, demographics, declining attendance at Mass. Over the last few years, the review process has led to the merger or closing of 30 parishes.

According to a report in the Inquirer, the State of Pennsylvania has denied as many as 8 of every 10 applications for cash welfare in 2013. This marks a significant increase over prior years. The increase in denials coincides with a new law that requires welfare seekers to apply for at least three jobs and document their efforts.
