Mailrooms in workplaces across the country are taking extra precautions, in the wake of an anthrax scare that has new developments by the hour.
Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle's office was quarantined after an anthrax tainted letter was opened in his office. Exposed workers are being treated with antibiotics.
Officials say the letter was postmarked Trenton, New Jersey, the same origin as a letter mailed to NBC anchor Tom Brokaw. NBC has stopped accepting all US Mail.
As for the military mission. On day nine. Calling it the most intensive attacks yet, US jets pounded targets around the capital and remote military sites.
The Pentagon was also on the defensive, saying the Taliban lied when it reported hundreds were killed in an earlier air attack.
The US is also dropping leaflets with the bombs, telling the Afghanistan people the air attacks are against the Taliban and Osama bin Laden and not civilians.
A nationwide strike in neighboring Pakistan brought commerce to a standstill Monday. The
strike was called by Muslim leaders who oppose the government's support of U-S military action
Secretary of State Colin Powell has begun trips to Pakistan and India to try to keep tensions between those nations from complicating the campaign in Afghanistan.

Return to index of stories...
There's no shortage of books that extoll the virtues of motherhood. But when it comes to looking at the complexities of being a mother - and how we all approach it differently - one New Hampshire author has taken the time to tell the stories of 84 different mothers. There are stories about terrible loss, enormous challenges raising children against huge odds. Emily Moore joined me earlier to talk about her book Strong Stuff Mothers' Stories.

set a goal of raising one million dollars. About 22-hundred
walkers in Manchester alone raised almost 200 thousands dollars.

Peterborough, Durham and Nashua. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Tuesday, NH Outlook begins a three part series on breast cancer. It's a journey toward healing.
script iconDrought

If you think the recent wet weather has put a dent in New Hampshire's drought - think again. State Climatologist Barry Keim says the light rains recently have only added up to a fraction of an inch, when we need some one- or two-inch drenchings.
North of Berlin has received even less rain. River and lake levels are low, and Keim says that could make it harder to process and clean water, because pollutants make up a higher percentage of the water.

In the month since the terrorist attacks on this country, Americans have found many ways to respond to the crisis. In schools across the state and around the nation, students and teachers have mobilized fund drives and other gestures of help for the rescue and relief efforts. And many schools have found that the arts can help everyone come to terms with what has happened. Producer Richard Ager has this report from one of those schools, Oyster River Middle School in Durham
