Detroit: A wealth of resources
By Roxanne Moore and Nefer Ra Barber
What are resource? Resources are land, people, water, knowledge and skills — to name a few.
Detroit is full of resources. If you don't think so, just talk to your neighbor or an elder in the community and you will be amazed at what you will find.
Resource sharing has been the backbone of urban life for many years. In the days after the migration to Detroit from the South, people shared housing, meals and child care. In times of transition, it is useful to pool resources and hold on to community. Now is such a time. We can explore outside our physical means, to the most vital resources that we can share: our knowledge. Teaching a person to cook holds more value than feeding them and with this skill, they can feed and teach others. The sharing of knowledge multiplies our effectiveness as a community. It costs only time to share a skill that you possess.
Many organizations in Detroit are using skill sharing as a tool for community development. The Garden Resource Program Collaborative program includes Urban Roots, training for community garden leadership utilizes experienced gardeners to share their knowledge on community engagement, starting transplants in your home, and planning the growing season. Past graduates of the program often share their stories and challenges to help the participants succeed. The class also creates space for networking and other strategy sharing. More information can be found at www.detroitagriculture.net.
Community gardens are just about in every neighborhood. These gardens are opportunities to develop gardening skills and produces fresh food for your family and your neighbors. Some communities have built their capacity to be able to sell to local farmers markets. This revenue helps to sustain the garden and provides programs for the community.
Timebanking has, within the last few years, become very active in the Detroit area. Timebanking uses time as currency, where hours are exchanged for services. No one's time is more valuable than another's, nor is their service. Timebanking is usually done within neighborhoods and builds trust and expands the sometimes little known knowledge of resources that we have among ourselves.
According to Myra Lee, the program coordinator of The Villages Neighbor to Neighbor Timebank, "Timebanking is a community ownership and accountability model that brings the community to trust and value one another as asset and community treasures. Timebanking is a pivotal resource to invisible capital." For more information, visit www.mitimebanks.org
Even Detroit entrepreneurs are using resource-sharing to build business and strengthen communities. Food Lab Detroit is an organization that supports locally owned socially and environmentally responsible food enterprises. Members do this by sharing information, resources, emotional support; organizing technical and financial assistance; learning to balance financial, social and environmental goals; and holding themselves accountable to the commitments they make. This mission birthed and completed a good food business boot camp that helped more like-minded businesses to work on taking their business to the next level. More information can be found on the Food Lab's Facebook page.
In the current state of financial emergency, Detroiters are pooling resources together to reclaim our community empowerment.
Roxanne Moore and Nefer Ra Barbar are members of the Detroit Food Policy Council.

Urticaria pigmentosa
Urticaria pigmentosa is a skin disease that produces lesions and intense itching. If you rub the lesions, hives may develop.
Alternative Names
Mastocytosis; Mastocytoma
Urticaria pigmentosa is one of several forms of mastocytosis, which occurs where there are too many inflammatory cells (mast cells) in the skin.
Urticaria pigmentosa is most often seen in children, but it can also occur in adults.
The main symptom is brownish lesions on skin. Rubbing the skin sore causes a hive-like bump. Younger children may develop a fluid-filled blister if it is scratched.
The face may also become flushed.
In severe cases, the following symptoms may occur:
- Diarrhea
- Fainting (uncommon)
- Headache
- Rapid heartbeat (tachycardia)
Exams and Tests
- Skin biopsy to confirm an increase in the number of mast cells
- Urine histamine
Antihistamines may relieve symptoms such as itching and flushing. Discuss the choice of antihistamine with your child's health care provider. Other medications may be recommended for symptoms of more severe and unusual forms of urticaria pigmentosa.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Urticaria pigmentosa goes away by puberty in about half of the affected children. Symptoms usually get better in others as they grow into adulthood.
In adults, urticaria pigmentosa may develop into a more serious condition called systemic mastocytosis.
Possible Complications
Discomfort from itching, and possible self-consciousness about the "spots," are the primary complications. Other problems such as diarrhea and fainting are rare.
Certain medications may trigger flares of urticaria pigmentosa. Discuss these with your doctor.
Bee stings may also cause severe allergic reactions in some patients with urticaria pigmentosa. Your doctor may advise you to carry an injectable epinephrine kit (such as EpiPen or Twinject) to be used in case of a bee sting.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if your child has symptoms of urticaria pigmentosa.

"Gabriel's story takes huge strides"
Gabriel Allon is finally aging, and finally realizing his human limitations. This story moves him around the board, and promises to change his career and family life. It is a great deal to accomplish in one book. The shows, as usual, an unwilling Gabriel called into action. But somehow he appears more human in this. By teaming up with former enemies who showed themselves to be as good as he was, he improves what the author tantalizingly alludes to as perhaps his last "secret" assassination assignment. All of Silva's books are excellent. It is interesting that he is allowing his protagonist to age and perhaps mellow. It will be interesting to see how far he carries that drift in subsequent books.
"Where is Steve West?"
I have been working my way through all the Grimes/Jury books, and in general, enjoy them enormously. This is despite them being somewhat tediously formulaic--always a child, usually a cat--but delightful and humorous characters. Steve West embodies and embraces this formula, and always does a masterful job with all characters, giving them just the right touch of irony or humor. This book is, again, borne of that formula. But without West narrating, they all sound alike and the humor and irony seem to fall short of the mark. This narrator does not do justice to Grimes' writing, and effectively shatters the beloved characterizations that have been built up through her other books. He is the wrong person to narrate, ruins it, makes the characters unmemorable and inseparable--a waste for me.
"Thriller! But needs better medical pronunciations"
This was an excellent thriller from start to finish. The most distracting part, was, oddly, the seasoned narrator Dick Hill. Because medications, conditions and treatments were crucially important to the plot, Mr. Hill should have been given a primer in their correct pronunciations--very distracting having to figure out what he was trying to pronounce, then missing the ensuing dialogue. His southern accents seemed harsh and difficult to distinguish between better educated and lower-life accents--and none seemed anything but contrived. He does better with Reacher. However, the book was truly an edge-of-the-seat thriller about the abduction of a diabetic child without sinking into graphic cruelty. Other issues brought forward were wives sacrificing their careers to raise children and men, particularly doctors, putting their conventions and meetings above family. It also highlights the harsh reality that no one is really safe.
"Book suffers from awful narration"
You would think that a best selling author would choose/rate first class narration--not on this book. First of all, the female who reads rather than narrates sounds as though she is a teenaged Valley girl. She literally reads (every sentence starts with voice higher and ends at voice lower at period). When she tries any intonation, it is misleading as she breaks up sentences inappropriately and puts the wrong emphasis on the wrong words. Furthermore, she absolutely can't do different voices for different characters. The listener becomes easily confused, unless there is a "he said" or "she said", as you can't tell the differences among the female characters and there seems little if any difference between male and female voices. Except her ridiculous hillbilly caricature. The lead female, Samantha, is supposed to be a 29 year old attorney. The narrator voices her as a high-pitched much younger sounding character.
Aside from the grating and ruinous narration, the book seems to have a new (for Grisham) gripping plot. I'm only half way through, and the narration is so disturbing that I decided to comment now. This is definitely a book much better read (as in hard copy) than listened to. Too many of the characters are lost to poor narration and it detracts from the plot.
"Jumbled, only comes together at end"
This continually lost my interest, and it was only sheer endurance that made me listen until the end. It begins with several different readers telling several seemingly unrelated stories...very confusing. It came off as very disjointed and uninteresting, until the end when it quickly pulled it all together. It felt as though I were being intentionally mislead until the rabbit was pulled out of the hat--and the various versions just didn't have enough depth. I would not listen to something from this author again--too much work.
"Always interesting, but bad American stereotypes"
Jury mysteries are always witty and amusing, but this one seems to veer out of its comfort zone by adding ridiculous American stereotypes, bad dialogue, and bad American accents. Kind of seemed as though the author took a trip to New Mexico and just had to make Jury fit into it. He didn't.
"Robotic narration and dated dialogue"
Not a new story, but the narration was uninspired and robotic, the love scenes just plain embarrassing, and the story interesting.
"Historical vertigo"
I'm a Francophile who spends at least a month in Paris each year. I try to read all books which humanize French history. It's great to be able to better appreciate where I happen to be at any given time and know just what went on there.
However, this book would be much better followed if read in written form. I listen to audiobooks so that I can multitask. But that doesn't mean I don't pay attention--I just can't take notes or memorize sequences. This book whips back and forth throughout history, chapters, characters, and quotes without the benefit of written punctuation. The narrator (one of my favorites, by the way) does an excellent job of injecting dry Brit wit into the writer's comments on much of the historical revelations. However, it is difficult to distinguish between a poem and the narration of any of the dozens of characterizations, and the "2.5.1" etc., (presumably chapters and sub chapters, and sub-sub chapters?) makes my ears stop listening. It can be very difficult to follow, as it is a collection of many separate scenarios, largely unlinked except for the city. The scores of character names are numbing, although the historical research is often entertaining, and certainly revealing.
It's just that, it is almost like a history text book, and really should be seen and read. Reciting chapter numbers and sub-chapters is meaningless and distracting. And, you never know what era the narrator will begin after taking an all-too-short pause. Sometimes if I am just slightly distracted, I'll have no idea what era or happening is being recited by the narrator. By the time I catch up, I have hopelessly lost my place and vow to get the printed book.
All in all, it is impressive research, and very entertaining and enlightening factoids about Paris and Parisians. It is just a bit oblique for a casual listener. And I really don't want to have to listen in a vacuum, as with a lecture.
"Engrossing dramatization of an actual event"
Although a Francophile, I don't remember hearing about the Paris apartment that had been closed up for 70 years. When I now research that finding, I see that many stories got it wrong. It was not the original owner, Marthe de Florian, who fled the Nazis for southern France around the time of the 2nd World War, but her granddaughter, which is a mystery in itself. This appears to be the best and tidiest accounting of the apartment and the lineage of owners. It also probably speculates as to why the final owner never returned for 70 years prior to her death, but kept paying the rent for all that time. The speculations are quite interesting, and it makes for an engrossing story--especially as it is heavily based on actual events. It seems to have been painstakingly researched to be able to have woven the intricate series of events that lead up to this fabulous find. Almost my only negative comment would be of the very excellent narrator. Especially when narrating the voice of a multi-degreed antiques expert, PLEASE pronounce "jewElry" correctly! (not jew-le-ry).
"Great education in art history"
This was one of Silva's more detailed, and in my opinion, more interesting and educational narratives, giving in-depth histories of some of the world's greatest painters. It has a more or less typical Gabriel Allon story line, but for some reason, Kiara and Shamron do not play as big a roll as in the past. Another benefit for Francophiles is the detailed descriptions of his paths in Paris. Clearly, Silva has been there recently. The book is fast-paced and mesmerizing until the end, which is somewhat disappointing. It is as though it quickly tied up lose ends and just stopped any in-depth narrative. Still very worth the listen, as are all of Silva's books.
"The most entertaining Grimes novel I've heard"
I stumbled on the Richard Jury books and found they had very entertaining if odd characters. Each character that continues from book to book seems to get deeper, funnier and better developed with each. This is the most entertaining of all the Jury books I've listened to, and I will likely go for the entire series. The narrator does a lively and excellent job of injecting humor and nuance into a vast variety of voices.

On 'Brink'
"At a minimum, they will need to monitor developments that materially affect the LCR of the banking system," the BIS said.
The Basel committee brings together regulators from 27 nations including the U.S., U.K., Japan, and China to co- ordinate theirregulation and supervision of banks.
Global central bank and regulatory chiefs will review the Basel group's work on the LCR at a meeting in January.
Failure to reach a consensus on the measure would add to uncertainty surrounding the implementation of Basel III. U.S. and EU regulators have already declared they will fail to meet the international Jan. 1, 2013 deadline to begin phasing in the measures.
"Basel is, in my view, on the brink," said Petrou.

Bad economy or not, Business will still buy things.
Money will still be spent – it's just a matter of how much we make ourselves believe that we not only WANT these things, but that we NEED them, as well.
Same theory applies to anyone in a business that requires getting customers – business to buy your product or service. Keeping in mind that business, though they may be more careful with their spending, are still going to spend. So how do you get businessto buy from you? You need to address the two following main points:
1) Get rid of their "pain". Whatever it is that you are providing – products, services or both, you need to show that you are going to make their lives, their days, or their business better by choosing to do business with YOU or your company. Your products or services need to, without a doubt, take away their pains and difficulties – and by doing so, enable businessto focus on growing the business with less aggravation. Make sure that during those meetings with prospects or current clients, that you really push the conversation in a direction that will allow you to unveil any underlying issues that are contributing to their problems – eventually getting deep enough to uncover those issues that they weren't even aware of.
2) Add Value by Creating more "Pleasure". We are human, and we buy many things because we want to feel good. Think about how you feel (or how your ego feels) after finally getting the car that you wanted, or a new home, or even something smaller like an IPad. Apple, for example, does make our lives more productive, but it also has a very "warm fuzzy" user friendly feel to their products, and we therefore "feel good" when using their products. Purchases are wrapped very tightly around our emotions, and as business business, we should never lose sight of that point. If you want someone to buy something from you, simply work to get it to an "emotional" level, by pointing out just how buying from you will somehow make business"feel" a certain way. For some companies, having the latest technology will make businessfeel "cutting edge", showing their customers that they are current in business.
If you client's state of mind is in a "pleasurable" place, it will be easier for Business to buy, and for you to make the sale. (Read more about your client's mind HERE).
Put yourself in your customer's shoes. What would it take for YOU to buy from YOURSELF? This is not always an easy question to answer, but if you figure it out, it could be a goldmine for your sales process.
Think about Black Friday, for example. It was one of their best days yet. As I've said in the beginning of this article, business WILL ALWAYS NEED TO BUY SOMETHING. It's your job as someone in business to perfect your understanding of business's "pains"the pain, and how you will get businessto understand how you are going to ADD VALUE and how much doing business with you will benefit them.
Maintain power.

A Touch Of Frost!
Anyway,this is life on P.E.I. an when spring and summer do arrive we appreciate it all the more for the wait. I do enjoy winter but sometimes it drags on a little too long. A friend called and said they are going south for a month -now that's a smart plan!
Hope you all have a great weekend!
Yesterday was a beautiful frosty morning!
There was a white haze over the Island
Someone asked if we still have snow- yeah, a little bit! (HeHe)
We went to The Best of P.E.I. and picked up a delicious lunch to take home if you have never been there and you are an Islander check them out.
Very good and all made fresh with Island products.

A Little Bit of Pink!
It is pretty out today so I hope to get out with my camera later. In the mean time I hope you enjoy a little bit of pink!
Take care,
We moved the chaise out to the sunroom-hoping to catch a few rays of sun while enjoying a cup of tea.
A new trift find-this pretty tablecloth was only $2.
Love these tulips!
Some of you asked how Lila and her Mom are doing and I am happy to say amazing! Lila is growing and sleeps and nurses well. She is definitely a keeper!
I love how relaxed she looks sleeping with her little arms up over her head.
This was big brother Noah's first reaction to Lila's homecoming but he has adjusted nicely when he realized Mommy still has time for him too!

.- Canada's Liberal government announced yesterday that it is prepared to sit through the summer to pass its final budget bill and the same-sex marriage bill.
The summer recess is supposed to begin at the end of the week, but the Liberals hope their motion to extend the session will come to a vote Thursday.
Last week, Prime Minister Paul Martin said passage of the the same-sex marriage bill would be delayed until the fall because of the Conservative's delaying tactics. But since then, the prime minister has changes his tune and expressed his intention to pass the bill as soon as possible.
"It's not time to take a holiday when we're still working on generating equality that people have waited so long to achieve," said NDP Leader Jack Layton, whose party backs same-sex marriage.
The Conservatives said they will continue to use parliamentary tactics to delay passage of the bill.

Such a wonderful aroma!
Great value! I purchased the Spearmint Leaf for my handmade soap. The scent is strong and lovely. The bag is so big, I will have to use some for tea. Great quality!

Nursing Retirement Plans
- 0Jul 12, '09 by bds165Hello,
I'm curious as to what nurses do for retirement options. Do any hopsitals offer pensions? Do most hospitals offer 401ks? TSPs? I've been weighing the options of going back into the military as a nurse because the pension/healthcare benefits are very tempting. I'll be 35 when I graduate so I don't have as many investing years as a new BSN.
Thank you.
- 1Jul 12, '09 by oramar GuideThat varies so widely depending on where you are and for whom you are working. The majority of institutions have switched to 401k and 403b and I am sure you have heard what a disappointment they turned out to be. However, if you go to work for the government there is a chance you would still be eligible for a defined benefit pension. Honestly, the best place to work is a place where they have both. My husband's union provided for both and that is such a blessing. Also, unionized hospitals will have better pensions than non-unionized, they also are more likely to have defined benefit pension. A lot of places have nothing, yes I mean zero, zilch, nada.
- 3Jul 13, '09 by QuickbeamI wish more nurses asked these questions! I once asked a hospital administrator why they provided such horrific retirement plans and his answer?..."nurses just don't care". I once worked at a hospital where a 30 year nurse found out upon retirement that she'd be getting a whopping 150$ a month for life. Please read the fine print on those retirement plans!
I left the private sector for a government RN job solely for the pension. After I qualify next year, I plan to go back to the private sector with my pension in hand. It is rough out there...read and save!
- 0Jul 13, '09 by mzjennxAre you working at a hospital now? Check with the HR to see what are the retirement benefits and how to qualify. It could depend on your hours work, how many hourse you have already work, your job status, etc.
My hospital, Kaiser Permanente in Hawaii, offer a TSP with Vanguard Group. I dont know much about these retirement saving programs, except that you invest pretax how much percent of your paycheck and that money is invest into stock, bonds, etc depending on your preference.
I hope this kind of helps. I still need to call my Vanguard rep to get more info on how to distribute my $$$ since the economy shaky right now.
- 2Jul 13, '09 by DManAZRN401K is better than a company pension. If the company goes belly up, no pension. Did'nt we see this somewhere recently? What's the street with the big wall?
I thought the new retirement age is now like 72 or something....
My plan is to die right as I run out of money, or just burn out and fade away into poverty and become a patient who lives in the hospital! Look ma, free food, drugs and housing, complements of the taxpayers!
I'm finally getting out what I paid in!
- 0Jul 13, '09 by SharonH, RNI work for Kaiser also. They offer a pension as well as a 401(K) with an anemic company match. I don't even consider the pension or social security when doing my retirement planning and neither should anyone else considering the events of recent years. If they are still around when I retire then they will be gravy. I invest in the 401(K) and I have a ROTH IRA. Max out your ROTH every year. It's after tax contributions but when you get ready to withdraw, it will be tax free. Another piece of retirement planning should be remaining debt free, long term care insurance and trying to stay in good health. It sounds corny but I work with the elderly and healthcare is the biggest expense for them with the second being grown children moving back home.
- 0Jul 13, '09 by elkparkQuote from DManAZRNNot necessarily true -- there is a federal agency, The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), similar to the FDIC, that protects pensions. If a company with a pension plan "goes belly up" that agency steps up and covers the pensions, up to an established maximum amount per employee. That ceiling figure means that a lot of higher-paid executives end up getting quite a bit less than they would have, but the ceiling is high enough that "regular" employees, like most RNs, would not take a loss. It has been in the press over the last few years that that agency is really struggling (and Congress has had to find more money for it) because so many companies have been going bankrupt (some of them primarily for the purpose of getting out from under their pension responsibilities), many more than anyone ever planned on the agency having to cover. 401Ks (and 403bs) are a clever way for companies to shift the responsibility, cost, and risk of retirement away from themselves and onto the employee. My personal IRA and 403b accounts have lost ~30% of their value over the last couple years -- that is definitely not "better" than a traditional defined-benefit pension.401K is better than a company pension. If the company goes belly up, no pension. Did'nt we see this somewhere recently? What's the street with the big wall?

There is no official "retirement age" -- one can retire whenever one chooses and is financially able. I assume you're referring to the age at which one becomes eligible for Social Security. That figure is gradually being increased over time for younger persons, as part of efforts to improve SS's financial situation. 65 was originally fixed as the eligibility point for Social Security because that was the average life expectancy at that time. Now that people are living so much longer, it makes sense to raise the eligibility age. You get an annual statement from the Social Security Administration, and that statement includes at what age you, specifically, become eligible for SS benefits.
- 0Jul 13, '09 by llg GuideThe vast majority of hospitals I am familiar with offer 403-B plans (or 401- k plans if they are for-profits).
I have regularly saved through the 403-B and also have a Roth IRA. I try to max both out every year. I took a few years off duing my 20's and 30's to go to graduate school twice. So, I feel like I have a little catching up to do. I am 54 years old and in spite of the current economy, have about 300K in those plans. (I also have a little money I inherited from my parents.)
- 0Oct 17, '10 by Happysouth1hey is it true that you can invest into 401k after one year of employment with Kaiser?

Special to the Standard
NORTH KINGSTOWN—It was a triumphant weekend for the Wickford Art Association.
By the close of the 49th annual Wickford Art Festival on Sunday evening, exhibitors, attendees and organizers all shared a sense of relaxed satisfaction in the success of this year's event.
A yellow-shirted Festival Staff member commented that "A lot of people have been coming up to the Information Booth with compliments, saying it's the best year yet. When they take the time to seek you out and tell you this, you know they really mean it."
As in the past, the festival was well-organized, well-executed, well-attended, and chock full of the highest-quality art available anywhere.
What set this year apart? For one, the spectacular weather.
From start to finish, the 2011 Festival was gifted with sparkling blue skies, warm sunshine, and cool breezes off the harbor.
It was hot, but not too hot—just about the right temperature for enjoying a frosty Del's, available for purchase from one of the numerous vendors who wedged their carts between shopfronts and art-filled stalls.
In fact, the weekend was perfect for enjoying all the pleasures the Festival had to offer—from delectable food to live music to the games and crafts at the Kid's Corner, sponsored by the First Baptist Church. And, of course, what everyone came for: the artwork.
According to the Wickford Art Association's website, the festival is limited "exclusively to original works of fine art painting and hand pulled prints, photography, and three-dimensional, non-functional sculpture," but within these parameters, there was something for every collector.
Paintings ranged from moody oils to light-drenched pastels, with a variety of subject matter to suit any taste. Alongside multiple, various beach and lighthouse vistas were some more unexpected offerings. Providence painter Melissa Mastrangelo, who focuses on gritty scenes of urban and industrial decay—atmospheric renderings in acrylic of rust and telephone wires—noted that the contrast between her work and the venue offered by Wickford village "gets people's attention," and ultimately seems to work in her favor.
Aside from diverse works of painting, photography and sculpture, this year's Festival included etchings, silkscreen prints, stained glass, and tiled mosaics. Clearly, one of the major contributing factors to the perennial appeal of the Festival is the quality of the art—which the Wickford Art Association is continually working to assure. Providence-based photographer and Association member Sandi King pointed out that "45 new artists were juried in this year. It's some of the best art we've seen recently."
For exhibitors as well as patrons, the intimacy and charming setting of the Wickford Art Festival is a draw. British-born, Florida-based pastel painter Jennifer Gardner commented that the festival is smaller than many of those she attends, and "feels more like a community show." Gardner, who has established a firm client base in the area over the last six or seven years, comes up to the Northeast each summer to do "the circuit." She makes it a point to "always start the season off in Wickford. I just love it."
From the perspective of the local population, the Wickford Art Festival means traffic—and though this may result in a few inconveniences to residents attempting to go about their weekend errands, the crowds also add a carnival mood of excitement and fun to the quaint, usually quiet streets of downtown Wickford. And the Festival contributes to the vitality of the village economy as well as its atmosphere: Sandi King noticed that "I see more people carrying canvases out this year. They seem to be spending a bit more."
This influx of visitors to Wickford Village is a boon to local businesses, too. Bee Givan, co-owner of the eclectic lifestyle boutique Green Ink, noted that the benefits to local merchants are by no means limited to one weekend in July. The Festival, she said, "is good for business in the long run. A lot of people come back later, saying it was too crowded."
After getting a glimpse of what the village has to offer, shoppers return in the future to spend more time. Though attendees hail "from all over"—according to a festival staffer—many are from within Rhode Island, making it easy for them to get back to Wickford for return visits.
Energized by the myriad successes of their 2011 efforts, the Wickford Art Association now turns its attention to the task of planning the Festival's golden anniversary.
Although the content of next year's festivities is not yet forthcoming, enthusiasm ran high at the Information Booth, where a staffer mentioned that "we want to do something really special."
Organizers can't do much to ensure a repeat of this year's perfect weather, but one thing is certain: the 50th anniversary of the Wickford Art Festival will once again bring the very best in fine art painting, photography and sculpture to the village.

Donations for Philippine typhoon victims stuck in Chicago
BY STEFANO ESPOSITO Staff Reporter November 15, 2013 11:13AM
Article Extras
Updated: December 17, 2013 6:07AM
When Catherine David told her cabdriver where she was going Friday morning and what she was doing — helping out at a North Side Filipino typhoon relief collections center — he told her to forget about the fare. Donate it to the cause.
"I was blessed to have that cabdriver," said David, who is Filipino and lives in Portage Park.
David's was one of countless stories of simple human kindness coming out of the Filipino-American Council of Greater Chicago Friday, as donation after donation poured in, one week after Typhoon Haiyan killed thousands and left at least 600,000 homeless.
"Originally, we were expecting maybe 100 boxes," said Rose Tibayan, one of the relief effort organizers. That effort began Tuesday.
Instead, they counted boxes in the thousands — stacked six, seven, eight high — in the West Irving Park building's parking lot, the basement, anywhere where there was space. Children's clothes, noodles, canned chili, bandages, bottled water, perfume — even a pair of fashionable high-heeled shoes arrived. The sound of ripping packaging tape echoed through the building, as dozens of volunteers repackaged supplies in preparation for their journey to the devastated regions of the Philippines.
But relief effort hit a snag, organizers at the center said Friday. A military contractor bringing supplies to the Philippines was supposed to be providing room on his aircraft, which hadn't yet got off the ground.
"We believe right now that he's caught up in red tape," said Tibayan said. "So we're trying to find other means to get it over there."
Gov. Pat Quinn, who showed up Friday to shake hands and offer support to the volunteers, said his office is working with the U.S. Department of Defense to allow an Illinois National Guard transport plane to deliver supplies.
"In order to fly to Manila, we need the permission of the United States Department of Defense, which we're seeking right now," Quinn said.
Volunteers openly wept when Quinn declared: "We are all Filipinos today, all across Illinois!"
Quinn came and went, and still the supplies kept arriving.
Anthony Oriolo, a college admissions adviser from Bolingbrook, arrived with a trailer full of stuff collected from co-workers.
Oriolo, who is of Filipino ancestry, has a 19-month-old daughter. He said the images of suffering moved him to action.
"I see kids crying an hour or two hours for just water and food," Oriolo said. "My daughter cries probably five seconds for milk and I'm there. Two hours without water and food. How is that going to feel if that's your kid?"

Epilepsy is in the news this month, as television personality and co-host of E!'s "Fashion Police," Kelly Osbourne, was hospitalized for five days after experiencing a seizure at work. The media went into an immediate frenzy, calling the episode an, "epileptic fit," and referring to Osbourne as, "an epileptic." Osbourne has since been released, with one of her representatives telling E! News, "Doctors ran numerous tests and determined that this was most likely a onetime episode of which there are no conclusive results."

I love Sears and I have loved Cratsman products, but if this represents the future of "Craftsman", I am done. I bought the WeedWacker 2 months ago and had used it maybe 6 times before it wouldn't start anymore. When it did run previously, I had the problem
the same reported by others - it would only run at full speed and idle, but nothing in between and it would try to kill if not given full throttle. Now it won't start at all and I have damaged my shoulder trying to get it started. I checked the spark and the gas and both were fine. Tried to call the 800 number for help and got no answer after 10 minutes on hold. Was loading the trimmer into the car to return it when I notice it was leaking fuel/oil. Looked closer and discovered that the cover where the optional cover attaches was loose. Turns out that it needs to be tight to have compression in the cylinder. Besides being a ridiculous design, the quality control inspectors never caught that the two screws had not been tightened (and one was missing entirely). I am keeping the trimmer for now because I don't have the receipt, but I have NEVER been so disappointed with Sears!

After I assembled the weedwacker, it started and worked like a charm. I was able to clean the fence line and the yard in half the time of using an electric weed eater. I am well pleased with this item.

As a huge fan of 'weedwacking', for some reason I find it theaputic, this weed trimmer never disappoints. I sometime spend over two hours sprucing up our yard and this trimmer leaves a great clean line. Only disappointed it only makes thru two summers. Just wish it had a longer life span.

Bought the same model two years ago. Had pretty good luck with it so when it gave up the ghost (probably ethanol and carburetor problems) I bought the same one. Started right up - haven't used any attachments with it but appears powerful enough.

i purchased a lower end Craftsman model hoping to be able to eventually get an attachment to cut thicker brush. I went to buy one to find out I could not get one. So I was talked into buying the higher end model with inter-changeable attachments. After buying this WeedWacker, it turns out that it uses A LOT more GAS and i have to run at a higher RPM than my other weed eater. What took me 45 mins to do with the this weed wacker, I was able to do the same amount of work in about 15-20 mins with my lower end model. I am not impressed at all. I would definitely NOT buy this product.

after my son broke our other weed with her it was time to purchase a new one I was a little hesitant in getting a gas with her because I was not sure on how strong I would have to be to handle it. I do notice that it is a little bit on the heavy side being that I am pretty petite. This is much stronger than our last electric with her that we had maybe a little overkill for what we need I tried to tell my husband all we needed was the light duty but you know how guys can be ;-). this weed with Willie does the job it is much faster than my other one but I do notice problems on keeping it started maybe it's just me since I'm used to only using electric ones I would definitely recommend buying this!

This is as bad as a craftsman that I bought several years ago that would not start until the bulb was pumped at least 20- times and then i would have to pull the cord at the least 15 times. My wife bought this even though I objected because it could be started with a drill motor and she thought that would be the cats meow. Well it was not. it would NOT start the second time we tried to weed eat the yard. She took it back and Sears couldn't get it started so they talked her into taking another one. What a piece of **** Sears is.

This is so easy to use. From bringing it home and taking it out of the box to assemble to actually going out in the yard using it. I love my new toy!!

CompUSA Closing 100 Stores
CompUSA will close 100 stores this year, according to an industry insider speaking to us under conditions of anonymity. Currently, CompUSA has 229 stores.
Hammered by competition from Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Circuit City, and internet retailers, and burdened by over $100 million in unsalesable store inventory, Mr. Slim evidently thinks CompUSA's chances at recovery too narrow.
News of the shuttering comes after recent corporate restructuring, and a swirl of rumors in recent weeks about the ailing retailer. One was that CompUSA might get a $400 million-plus infusion from Mr. Carlos Slim, Mexican billionaire chain owner. Another one posited that the retailer might buy, or be bought by, Tiger Direct.
This bodes well for shoppers. Can we say fire sale?

Behavioral Health vs Mental Health
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 12-26-2013 - 9:50am
What do you think of the term behavorial health being used in place of mental health? It doesn't sit well with the author of this article, she feels that it continues the stigma around mental health:
What do you think?
|Thu, 01-09-2014 - 10:30am
I do not really care for the term "mental health". I think it is vague and often synoymous with "emotional well-being". I think "behavioral health" is a much more accurate term. In terms of achieving "emotional well-being" behavioral changes are often necessary. For example, people will generally "feel better" if they go outside and walk or move instead of sitting at the computer. :)
I disagree with the author that "behavioral health" increases the stigma of "mental illness". I think interchanging the terms "mental health" and "mental illness" creates stigma. Unlike excercising to increase mood or well-being, there are some psychiatric conditions such as post-partum psychosis, which are serious and are not going to go away by themselves. I think calling that an "emotional problem" or a "mental health problem" dilutes the severity. It is a problem, an illness, something that requires additional help and resources. Getting outside and walking isn't going to make a serious mental illness go away. I prefer "psychiatric disability" to "mental illness", but I do not know of an adequate expression.

(May 2012) – The role of dad has long been a favorite in pop culture. Whether played for laughs or offering a more sincere take, fathers have been a mainstay in entertainment for as long as we can remember. As everyone begins to prepare for Father's Day, we thought it might be fun to take a look back at some famous pop culture dads that reflect (with varying degrees of success) the qualities we'll be celebrating on June 17.
Atticus Finch: Often considered the gold standard of fathers in film, Gregory Peck transformed the character that originated in Harper Lee's novel and created a personification of virtue and courage. As gentle and compassionate with his children as he is determined and serious to make the world around them a better place.
George Bailey: Proving that even great dads can have a bad day, Jimmy Stewart is reminded of how much he means to his friends and family while giving viewers a lesson in what's truly most important in life.
Cliff Huxtable: Aside from the trademark sweaters, there isn't too much about Bill Cosby's iconic role to scoff at. He was always there to offer advice and guidance (including the occasional dose of tough love), he was a wonderful role model with a very successful career, and there may be no funnier on-screen dad in history.
Darth Vader: Stay with us on this one. Yes, he did cut off his son's hand (which would certainly make getting together for cook outs or watching the game awkward) but Luke did get a new one and in the end old Anakin actually saved his son from ultimate evil. On second thought, let's just say that he is an example of a dad that learned from his mistakes.
Clark Griswold: If grading solely on effort, few if any pop culture dads could top Clark Griswold. From his single-minded pursuit of a trip to Wally World to his over-the-top efforts to ensure a great family Christmas, things didn't always work out as he had planned, but there was no doubting that this dad wanted to give his family everything.
Homer Simpson: While it's obvious he does actually care about his children, Homer is the ultimate example of a father teaching his kids what not to do.
The dads of Modern Family: From Jay, a stepfather and patriarch adapting to constant change, and Phil, a bumbling but lovable father of three, to Mitchell and Cam, adopted parents still learning their way, this family of fathers reflects the challenges that today's dads face as well as the joys they receive.

Thanks to Gamma Labs and TheFugitive for a fun promo where we were had to pick a winner of the UFC 153 Silva vs Bonner fight. I was one of the few lucky winners.
I received 3 pcs of each flavor, 3 Blue Ice, 3 Fruit punch and 3 of Lemon Lime.
So i tried so Far 2 flavors only, going to try Lemon Lime tomorrow and write a feedback
Both Blue Ice and Fruit Punch were easy to mix, i didn't even use my blending part of the shaker, so both getting 10/10.
Taste is great, my fav is Blue Ice, it reminds me some candy from my childhood but i cant remember which one. Neither of flavors is too sweet and i think Lemon lime is going to be a little on sour side. 10/10
I usually workout at 8am and normally would take some energy shot with my pre-workout, but this time i was sipping on g-fuel while driving to gym and by the time i got there i was already awake and ready to hit weights. Had great focus from it as well. So 10/10 for the energy and focus.
Great product, which i definitively going to include in my supplement stack. So much better than energy shots i used to take loaded with sugar.

Teamsters, funeral directors at odds
Teamsters Local 727, which represents 59 funeral directors and drivers at 16 Chicago-area funeral homes owned by Service Corporation International, has lodged unfair labor practice charges against the company.
The union alleges the company has violated the National Labor Relations Act by not bargaining in good faith. The Teamsters claims SCI made "unlawful omissions and misrepresentations in memos issued to its employees and negotiators."
The union also alleges SCI issued memos that contained "implied threats to interfere with employees' current benefits" in violation of the federal law.
Local 727 has been negotiating a contract for its members since June 14. No strike date has been set as talks continue. The current contract expires Monday.
In a statement, SCI said that its contract bargaining committee hadn't yet seen the union's complaint but nonetheless called the allegations "utterly baseless."
The company said it is negotiating in good faith with the Teamsters and has offered a "fair and generous package" to the union.
While SCI has offered wage increases of 4 percent to 5 percent in the contract's first year, the union said its members also are being asked to contribute more toward their health insurance, which would dilute the wage hikes.
The union conducted informational leafletting last week outside the Blake-Lamb Funeral Home, 4727 W 103rd St., Oak Lawn. Blake-Lamb is one of six Southland funeral homes that is owned by Houston-based SCI.

We are always looking for local families to participate in our Guardian Home Program!
If you live within 30 minutes of Providence, RI, have a fenced in yard, and a family member who is home the majority of the day, we would love to hear from you!
We are looking for local guardian homes for one Female and one Male puppy!
We are also looking for local guardian homes for these 2 beautiful adult girls!
Our breeding program is designed around our precious breeding dogs living pampered pet lives with their wonderful guardian family. Placing our breeding dogs in Guardian Homes allows for us to continue to grow our breeding program, and more importantly ensures that each and every dog in our program is first and foremost a forever family pet! Since 2007, we have had over 50 families participate in our Guardian Home Program. This program is a win win win win for all involved....the Guardian Family, OSL, and of course the dog! We do not believe in kennels, and our dogs will always be the center of attention in their loving families lives! Our guardian home program is what makes OSL possible! For additional information on our Guardian Home Program and how it works, please make sure to visit the Guardian Home Page of our website before contacting us. The guardian home program is is a wonderful opportunity for local families to have the very best puppy (which was selected as the pick of the litter,) that OSL has to offer for just a fraction of the cost! If you are interested in adding one of our Guardian pups to your family by participating in our Guardian Home Program, please take the time to fill out an adoption application and make sure to write " Guardian Home Inquiry" in the subject line. Once completed, you can email your adoption application to firstname.lastname@example.com PLEASE NOTE: If you have inquired about our Guardian Home Program and have not yet taken the time to submit an application, we are more than happy to respond to your inquiry once we have received your application provided that you meet the criteria to become a guardian family for one of our dogs.
Unfortunately we are not flexible with the criteria required to become a guardian family. In an effort to allow us to focus the majority of our time on our puppies, we ask that you please refrain from inquiring if your family does not meet the full requirements to participate in the Guardian Program.
Thank You for your interest, and we look forward to hearing from you!
