I am a new Cubmaster. I have been with the Pack for 2 years in a leadership role, in that time I have done my required training and then some, I also have done a quite a bit of research, learned a lot from you folks. Thank You. My issue, a Leader in the Pack who has crossed over to Boy Scouts was the Committee Chair and Advancement Chair for 5 years and had assumed a majority of the Cubmasters responsibilities, leaving the Cubmaster to run the Pack meeting and set up the Packs Scouting program, with his approval of course. Now he is gone and I am the second Cubmaster since his crossing. Our Committee is stuck in a status quot, that I am only to be responsible for the 2 areas I mentioned above. I would appreciate youalls input on wich derection should take.

Is this a problem for you ? What other areas do you want to take over ? Preparing a good pack meeting and setting up the Packs program are important and time consuming responsibilities. I assume "the packs program" involves interacting with the other den leaders to help guide their program. Here is the long list of Cubmaster responsibilities. What is the Committee not allowing you to do ? http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/...ack/cmast.aspx
Where does BSA state one of the Cubmaster's jobs is to "monitor" the den programs?
In BSA's list of Cubmaster responsibilities (see KDD's link above), it states -
- Plan and help carry out the Cub Scout program in the pack according to the policies of the BSA. This includes leading the monthly pack meeting, with the help of other leaders.
- Work with the pack committee on program ideas
- Guide and support den leaders
It should not be necessary for a CM to "monitor" any den unless requested to do so by the den leaders, or because of some kind of major problem within a specific den.
Tracking Scout participation at Pack, and/or den activities, should be the responsibility of the individual den leader, not the CM. Typically, the den leaders report all of their Scouts activity monthly to the Advancement Chair.
When you state "working with the Advancement chair to be certain Scouts are getting their recognition" I am not sure what - exactly - you are referring to.
Are you planning on monitoring the Advancement Chair to be sure that all reported advancements are purchased for the month? If so that is not the responsibility of the CM. The Advancement Chair is a Committee Member, and as such, they are part of the Committee Chair's responsibility.
Do you mean that this is part of your "monitoring" of the den's programs? Do you plan on telling your den leaders who they need to give advancement to, and when? If so that is the den leaders responsibility, not the Cubmasters.
A Committee Chair is not really "in charge" of a Pack. Per BSA, the Committee Chair is in charge of the Pack Committee, and is responsible for "the administration, oversight, and support of the pack program". The Cubmaster works with the Pack program itself, and the Scouts.
The Committee Chair, Cubmaster, Committee, and other leaders, all work TOGETHER as a TEAM.
ScoutNut, I appreciate your input. The link KDD provided is a washed down version of whats in the Cub Scout Leader Book. I may be reading more into this than needed, that is why I came to youall. What is the norm in most Packs? I want to be an active Cubmaster. I did not volunteer for the position, but it was not forced on me.
Actually the list of Cubmaster responsibilities at KDD's link is - exactly - the same as the list in the 2010 Cub Scouts Leader Book.
The "norm" in most Packs is for the Cubmaster to work with Scouts and program and the Committee to work with administration. The "norm" is also that folks do what they have to do when/if there are not enough volunteers to go around. Wearing multiple hats is usually the "norm" in many Packs, but that does not make the additional duties official Cubmaster responsibilities.
As I said above, a unit (any unit) works better when all of it's leaders work together as a team. Adult infighting is the major cause of units folding.
What you describe sounds pretty much like the optimal Cubmaster role...just being the "program guy" and MC of meetings. Usually the complaint runs the other way around--the Cubmaster is expected to run the pack like a one-man show. I say be happy.
Committee Chair and Advancement Chair, I'm guessing he also did Activities Chair, Fundraising Chair, Membership Chair, and all that other bullwork. None of which was the Cubmaster's responsibility, of course. And I'm guessing the real problem is everyone else thinks you are going to be doing everything now that you are "in charge".
Start by breaking down the list of responsibilities. Then ask persons to step into defined roles. Don't "broadcast ask" for help, you will get none. Pull someone aside, ask them to do a specific job, with specific duties.
Or is the problem what KDD mentions, that you actually have the role/duties of Cubmaster, but you don't quite get what those duties are supposed to be. From the description you gave, Pack Meetings and scouting program, that's what you should be doing.
Woodward, have you taken position-specific training? If not, you should do so, right away. You seem to have a lot of confusion about the role of the Cubmaster.
In our pack, the CMs are mostly a figurehead position. They will attend the pack planning meeting and give valuable input, but then it is up to the committee chair and committee people to make the events happen. We present the Cubmaster with a list of what is planned for each meeting, then the CM will come up with opening and closing remarks and act as MC at the meeting. They also are great sounding boards for den leaders who are struggling with parent or scout issues and need some support, advice, or just a pat on the back letting us know we are doing a good job. The CM doesn't necessarily have to be a hands-off leader, but they should not be a micromanager, particularly when it comes to the den programs. The den programs are the den leader's responsibilities and the CM should not get involved unless there are some problems. It's the nature of the CM position. Want to be a more active leader? Be a den leader or CC.
I felt like I should chime in on this discussion, having been a cubmaster for almost 5 years. Yes, the den leaders report to the cubmaster. See the org chart:
I do agree that the CM should not micro-manage the Den leaders, but rather be a guiding hand. Pick good people and let them do their thing, guide them if they are off course, but allow creativity. I have den leaders not using the den leader planning guide despite making sure it is known to them. It has even come to the point of almost losing a leader, when I pointed them back to the guide and they had the aha! moment. You can only lead them to the water...
Also, in the committee chair responsibilities, you will see very little about dens other than suggesting when new dens should be formed.
"Guide and Support Den Leaders" in the cubmaster responsibilities is another supporting area that cubmasters should be active with the den leaders.
Finally, in the Cub Scout Leaders Handbook, it states "The cubmaster is the guiding hand behind every other pack leader". I know I took this seriously when I became cubmaster.
Some things I do with my den leaders:
- Recruit new den leaders from parents
- Guide new den leaders with the aid of the pack trainer. Offer my help to them to plan and run den meetings, especially the first meeting.
- Prepare den leaders for upcoming years. I recommend den leaders get BALOO trained and Web Den leaders to get OWL trained. The latter is required to go webelos camping and we have a bi-monthly camping program as part of our web to scout transition.
- Visit all the den meetings. The cubmaster is not always well known within the dens outside the pack meetings. Going to den viists allows you more personal time with the boys and the parents. I find most often that parents have a number of questions for me during the den meetings and it's great to get to know the parents better. Finally, what I like to call best practices. Each den runs differently. After visiting all my dens, I get to take the best of the best and suggest this to the den leaders as a best practice for their den meetings. in this way, all dens become stronger from the experiences of the den leaders. Ok, one more. I recently had a parent complain about their den leader not having information at the den meetings. Because I had been to that den leaders meetings, I was able to tell the parent that I knew that the leader had information readily available.
Perhaps "monitor" is too strong a word. When I started den visits, some of the parents and leaders thought that I was trying to see what they were doing, but I assured them that this was not the case. Something that is grossly out of line would need to be addressed, but for the most part it's a way to get to know your parents and boys better. Looking at the responsibilities again, it is the cubmaster's responsibility to see that each boy receives a quality year-round program and attending den meetings will give you a better idea of the quality of that experience.

I would appreciate youalls input on wich derection should take.
I'm the committee chair and a den leader. During den meeting nights, the CM opens the meeting (we do a joint opening then break into dens). During pack meeting nights, he directs the activity. During pack activities, he runs then if he's there, I run them if he's not there. The other den leaders jump in on activities because were used to running things. My in the background committee members help with some of the overall planning. A more active committee and Trainjng my replacement are near the top of the list. Den meetings are a time for you to gather notes and help share ideas between dens, plus a chance to chat with the parents. Plan more weekend activities, belt loop nights, etc if you feel under utilized.
If more committees ran the pack like your pack Woodward, the Cub program would be in much better shape. I know at first it seems restrictivily departmental, but I'm sure you will be able to assist the other adults in those areas that are of interest to you. Trust and old scouter who has had to help fix some broken packs, yours is way way ahead in running a consistently strong program. Barry
I don't see how you can "guide and support" the den programs if you don't monitor them... Cubmaster should be running activities for the boys when it's not den meeting times. That is a serious pack job. What else do you want to do?

Are Your Home Improvements Harming Your House?
If you are thinking about starting some home improvement projects, a new study released by HealthyStuff.org and conducted by the Ecology Center of Ann Arbor, Mich. reveals that you might have more to think about than comfort and décor. The study tested 3,300 home improvement products: 1,016 samples of flooring and 2,312 samples of wallpaper. The results are a bit shocking.
Heavy metals and other chemical additives, which include lead, cadmium, flame retardants, tin compounds, and phthalates, were commonly found in residential flooring and wallpaper. In fact, more than half of the flooring samples tested positive for one or more chemical additives. Vinyl flooring was indicated to be the most harmful—containing the highest percentage of detectable lead and being twice as likely to contain hazardous chemicals.

text: Tomorrow will be a very passionate day for many here. Please think twice before posting rude commentary directed at other members. Regardless of opinion i can say with great conviction that no person's opinion in this forum determined the outcome of the election - I am sure of it. We as Americans have great freedoms that were born of sweat, dedication, sacrifice, blood and death. to take another's opinion away through rude commentary is a slap in the face to all who fought for our rights and freedoms. There is no right and wrong opinions. there may be majority and minority opinions but it's impossible to determine which are right and which are wrong because we cannot test both and a control group at the same time - we just can't. If there is someone in this forum who you truly cannot stand - perhaps tomorrow you can go the extra mile to either show them some semblance of respect or avoid their posts altogether - both scenarios will help us get through a tough day for some and a happy day for others. With every election season and process ... this great country with it's great people carries on and will again this time. Romney and Obama are really not polar opposites of each other - the election only makes it appear that way to get us to vote. Enjoy tomorrow for better or worse - it's a great day regardless of victor. Thank You IcyPatriot

Battle of the Golden Wood, The
21. Leaving or Staying?
Galadriel looked up and saw the smooth, competent face of Aelinoth, her crown of black plaits haloed by a swift sunrise. It was a fair morning, and the roof and walls of the great talan had been rolled away, leaving the land's affairs to be conducted in the glory of a fresh sky. She took the tally of names from where it rested on the empty chair beside her own, and felt the healer's worry as a small dissonance in the song of the dawn. "This is a long list. Is there water enough for all in the fount of Caras Galadhon?"
"That is my concern," said Aelinoth, her eyes downcast, "For now there is enough, but the spring is falling and it will ere long run dry. Unless we can take water from the rivers soon, I know not how we will continue to live."
Nimrodel and Silverlode sweltered still under their load of poison, so she had read only an hour ago, but on Galadriel's left, Osdan - the elf charged with the clearance of Anduin - stiffened almost unnoticeably. His mind was open, and she could feel his eagerness to speak, an underlying sense of satisfaction, bordering on smugness. She smiled and said "I believe both bridges and bodies have now been removed from the Great River, and it is fit to use." Turning, she looked at the slightly crestfallen engineer with mild enquiry. "Is that not so?"
"Yes," he said, impressed, "I had just come to report it."
"Let it be done so, then. Are you answered?"
"Very well, Lady." Aelinoth departed with an air of new hope, and to soothe his ruffled feathers Galadriel praised Osdan in words that sent him forth glowing.
When he had gone there was a pause in which, but for guards, she was alone with the day. She smoothed a wrinkle in her skirt and thought of how easy it had been - ringless or no - to overawe her people with her knowledge. Doubtless Osdan had gone forth believing that she still knew every last detail of what happened in her realm. Such tricks she had long engaged in, knowing that her illusion of omniscience comforted her folk and made outsiders think twice about challenging her. In private Celeborn laughed at it, and called it vanity. In public, out of his kindness, he indulged her. But he did not understand. He had not grown to manhood in a huge family of warring cousins or learned, early in life, the value of appearing invulnerable.
She spread her hands on her knees and looked down. Nenya sparkled on her finger like a spidersweb bedewed in sunlight, its visibility a jarring reminder that it was now powerless.
With it, the seeming infinity of her knowledge had not been so far from the truth. But what was she without it? She had been a ringbearer so long. So long accustomed to its unseen weight, to the sense of largeness, to the way it opened her like one of the living flowers of the ocean, and washed the scents of all the world into her waiting mind. The first thing she had done, after her husband departed leaving her bereft, had been to find it and put it back on. Her hand had felt so empty without it, and her heart cold. But just as Celeborn had no sympathy to offer her, so Nenya failed of comfort at last, broken and drained as she herself.
The trees sighed about her, a soft susurration like the lap of a gentle sea against a white shore, where pearls lay scattered among the sand. Last night, in dreams, the Valar's pardon had been offered to her a second time. Wearied to the point where she could be humble, torn between joy and heartbreak, she had at last accepted it. And now all her thoughts were of the ocean. A tide of longing for Valinor swept from beneath her the foundation which held her in these mortal lands, washed into the great sea all ties of love and longing; calling, calling, in a voice she had spent centuries denying, but could resist no more.
On her left hand Nenya's beautiful corpse shone like light on the waves. But on her right there gleamed a ring of gold - as plain and unmarked as the One itself. Her wedding ring. For many years she had felt no need to contemplate it. It just was. But now - recalling that flash of bitter resentment - she wondered if this ring too would prove as perilous to her as the Enemy's. For this ring had not lost its power - it lay on her hand as heavy as a chain, holding her back from healing, imprisoning her in this darkened, meaningless land. She had done now what she came from Valinor to do, for Morgoth was defeated, and Sauron overthrown. Her pride, abased though it was, was satisfied, and she could now go home, but for this ring, but for Celeborn's love.
All you begin in hope will end in ruin, she thought. Such had been the Doom of Mandos. Her fea, and that of her husband, had been joined eternally not by any Vala, but by Iluvatar Himself, and throughout the years she had clung to the knowledge that it could not be undone, even by Namo himself. But perhaps the 'ruin' of their marriage might come not through dissolution, nor separation, but by enduring forever in hatred, as a torment to one another until the end of the world.
She was tempted to say 'the Valar could not be so cruel'. But she had seen the madness in the eyes of the sons of Feanor, and she knew that they could.
At the foot of the tree the trumpets sounded. She stirred, clasped her hands together, covering both rings, and raised her head to watch as there bounded onto the booming deck a messenger from the host of Lorien. "Lady," he said, throwing himself to one knee, sodden cloak leaving a curling stroke of black orc blood on the pale wooden floor. "The enemy is utterly routed, and Dol Guldur is ours. The Lord asks that you come and tear it down, so that your victory may be complete."
"He is not returned himself?" Galadriel could, had she so wished, have stretched out and brushed her husband's mind - distance was no matter to those linked by love. But the last time she had done so he had been closed to her, armoured as if her touch had been the Eye of Sauron. That too had hurt. Suppose he remained thus? Unwilling to find it so, she did not try.
"No, Lady," the messenger grinned, and she felt rebuked by the happiness of everyone around her. It was irrational, having taken care that no one would see her pain, to feel slighted by their disregard of it, but when had such emotions ever answered to reason?
"We took the fortress some eleven days ago, and cleared all danger from the forest about it - Lord Merethir would not let me depart until he was sure it was safe for you. But my Lord Celeborn is gone himself with all haste to Thranduil's aid, taking the greater part of the army with him, not knowing what they might find. Dol Guldur stands empty and resists every weapon we can throw at it. Will you not come?"
There was a chance, Galadriel thought, that she could go, bring down the fortress, and return, ere ever Celeborn had done with Thranduil's war. Perhaps she could put off the moment of facing him, just a little longer. Her own uncertainties should not come between herself and her duty. She stood. "Let an escort be prepared for me," she said, and smiled a costly smile - so that all would see how pleased she was at their triumph. "I will assemble some of the healers, lest Thranduil's folk have need of them. We will depart within the hour."
She took care that no one on Middle earth would ever know that - though it would make her choices easier - still what she feared most was to look upon her husband and find at the last there was nothing left between them but detestation.
Haldir sat among the healers and rolled up bandages. Boiled and dried they were now ready for use once more, though there seemed some hope that not all would be needed. The human child, Gytha, helped him, so intent on being useful that he had not the heart to tell her he could have done the work twice as well, and in half the time, alone. She had picked up a great deal of Sindarin and chatted all the while in a mix of Grey-elvish and Rohirric that fell barbarously on his ear. He learned much about the frolics and follies of some of Lorien's youngest maidens as he watched her small hands wind the linen in loose, cumbrous spirals - which he knew someone would take away with effusive thanks and do again correctly. She was more serious than many a five-hundred year old elf, but in a body that did not yet obey her commands. A strange but delightful creature. There was no wonder the Healers had taken her under their wing as one of their own.
From the corner of his eye Haldir noticed Leofwyn, watching them. Her expression was clouded, and every time Gytha returned some Sindarin phrase, or gestured in a way she had learned from the ladies, Leofwyn's concern seemed to deepen. He understood it well enough, for there had been other Men slain on the borders of Lorien through the years - orphans brought in and raised by the elves, and though it had been better than leaving them to die, the results had rarely been happy. Like a kitten raised among a litter of pups, the children had not, by nature, fitted in to one kind, nor by upbringing into the other. Lavished with love and affection, still they grew out of shape, and tragedy overtook them, as it had Turin, Thingol's famous fosterling.
"I must see if they will let me visit my brother," he said. He put the bandages into a basket and handed it to her, turning her around and pushing her towards her own folk. "Go take these to your father."
When he did not improve, Orophin had been moved to a curtained pavilion so that - Haldir thought sourly - his death should not disturb the other patients. He and Rumil had been urged to make themselves useful elsewhere, but it did not stop them from visiting every time the wind changed, or the trees spoke, or a woodpecker knocked...or their hearts failed them in terror that he might have woken in their absence and died alone, thinking himself abandoned.
Now he stopped outside the small tent and watched Rumil come, picking his way through the injured like a walking flame - so bright was his hair in the dawn sunlight, and the polished hilts of the knives which lay at his shoulder. Rumil was arrayed for war, and, though the Lady had withdrawn the army from Moria, saying there would be no further attacks, still Haldir understood. It would be a while before anyone felt secure enough to go unarmed.
"Any news?" Rumil looked at his older brother with entreaty, but Haldir had no reassurance to give him. He sought for something to say, but was spared from filling his mouth with the ash of platitudes as the healer, Rian, approached. "How is he?"
She lifted the tent flap and put the bowl and soaked cloth she carried inside on the long grass. When she finally looked at them both her eyes were hollow, faintly guilty. "I grieve to say this, but unless the fever breaks soon either he will die, or when he does awaken you will not know him, nor he you."
"What do you mean?" Haldir was aghast at this further anguish on top of all others.
Rian shook her head, "To struggle this long...it can take away some part of the fea - memories, or strength, even wit. I do not council you to lose hope just yet, but he must wake soon, or it will be too late."
Haldir breathed in sharply. There seemed to be a great pit in the centre of his chest - an endless darkness like the abyss of Khazad-Dum. His breath could not fill it, and it had such a weight his legs could hardly bear it up. Rumil choked, and then - eyes widening - covered the sound with a hand over his mouth as he bowed awkwardly to someone behind Haldir. Turning, Haldir saw that the Lady Galadriel stood at his shoulder, as pale in face as she was in raiment.
"Rumil," she said, "I would not normally take you from those you love in this dire pass, but these are not normal times, and the list of unscathed warriors left in Lorien is a short one. You will head my escort to Dol Guldur, and witness for Orophin's sake our final victory over our age long enemy."
Rumil stepped back, almost staggered, but he lifted his chin and looked at her. She held his gaze, and after a long time he straightened, both their faces saddened by the same small smile. "Yes, Lady," he said, "For Orophin, and for you."
Turning to Haldir he said, "Make sure he's still here when I get back, or we will have words." Then, bowing once more, he went without a backward look, and only his brother saw the effort it cost him in his braced and painful stride.
"So much loss..." said the Lady softly, and laid her hand on Haldir's shoulder. A strength flowed through the touch, so that although in every other part of him he was as brittle as ice, only there did he feel himself alive. Daringly, he looked up into her eyes - so tall she was! It was as though he looked into the clear waters of her mirror, and saw there the pain of all Lorien. She carried his grief, with a thousand - a hundred thousand - other hurts. And though she offered no solace there was some balm in the knowledge that she too understood what it was to be in agony when all around were turning their thoughts to bliss.
"You are great and wise, my Lady," he said, moved, "Can you not do something for him? Can you not heal him?"
What flashed through her eyes then looked less like regret than guilt. It surprised and dismayed him, and he chided himself for awakening some ancient regret which should have been left buried, for surely she had done nothing for many ages of the world for which she should be ashamed. Looking aside, she smiled softly, and her voice was gentle and full of sadness. "Ah, Haldir, my touch will bring your brother no weal. For he lacks not strength, only a reason to stay. Go call him, and see if your love can be the hook which hauls him back to these shores. If you cannot do it, I deem no one can."
At that she moved away. Haldir stood a moment, watching her speak to Leofwyn - from the woman's grateful smile he guessed she had been asked to go to Mirkwood with the Lady's party, and would as a result the sooner be reunited with her son. Then he drew together enough courage to move, lifted the flap of Orophin's small tent and ducked inside.
It was dim and still within. Orophin was tangled in linen sheets, but lay utterly still. To Haldir's eyes, able to tell a sparrow from a finch at a mile's distance, the skull glimmered visible beneath the stretched, famished face. Always it was eerie in here, hearing the sick man struggle with enemies of his own mind's making - tossing and burning, crying out, his wide eyes seeing into some other, fouler world. Though he loved his brother, Haldir had come to dread the hours spent with those nightmares - the ache of hearing fears and agonies he could not assuage. Sitting crosslegged in the dim dark, bathing the furious fire from Orophin's livid, glowing skin, Haldir had already begged - as Lady Galadriel said - for him to return. He had pleaded, holding and rocking his youngest brother as he had when the boy was first born, the cheek that lay against his collarbone painfully hot. But Orophin heard nothing, only writhed in his grip and called out nonsense, or screamed, his voice raw and parched.
All was silent now.
The quietening of Orophin's pain at first pleased Haldir. He breathed in deep, but the sigh of relief became a sob as he came further in, knelt to take the open hand in his own, and found it was cold.
It was cold.
Haldir's heart stopped. He laboured to inhale but found he had forgotten how as he dropped the hand and smoothed back sweat-damp tangles of yellow hair from Orophin's brow. Oh Eru! That too was cold, and the face was white, damp and white and chill as clouds. Moving, he knew not how - so separate from his body had his mind become - he found himself clutching the limp, thin form in his arms, Orophin's head on his knee, his own head bent over and a darkness that was his hair spilling over both of them, cutting out the light. "Muindor, gwanur...mellon nin," he said softly, as tears welled and fell unnoticed from his eyes, splashing on the bruised, sunken face of his brother. "Orophin, oh Orophin, please!"
So his worst thoughts had proved true. As he sat, occupying his hands with useless work, his beloved brother had died alone. Closing his eyes he pulled the frail body closer and keened, his voice rising in a wordless litany of grief like the groan of the earth itself under Sauron's torment.
A hand touched his cheek, wiping away his tears. It was a large, bow-string calloused, cold hand that trembled with effort. Haldir choked on his lament, eyes flying open, and saw Orophin watching him with weary concern. "I dreamed of rain," Orophin whispered, and smiled.
Haldir set him down swiftly, scrambled away, and collided with Rian - who had come running when she heard his outcry. Turning, he grasped at the maiden's arm as if at sanity. "He is... He was..." Dead. He was dead. "I came in and he was..."
She pushed him aside and knelt to help the sick man lie more comfortably on the pallet. Touching his forehead and his throat she sang a little, a sound of running water, cool and clean. Then she looked back at Haldir with a gaze full of both sympathy and barely restrained laughter. "Thou poor fool! He was but cold because his fever had broken, and still because - at last - he slept a healing sleep. All is well now." She smiled brightly, "All is very well. Now stay here while I bring a draught he must drink, and clean sheets, and take down this pavilion that he might see the sky..." All business, her own happiness transmuted into bustle, Rian left on the first of her many errands and Haldir met his brother's tired eyes with a shamefaced look, and a heart that was afraid to sing.
"Did I scare you?" said Orophin.
And Haldir thought of years gone by when an elf-child would leap on him in ambush, would wake him in the mornings with Balrog-roaring, or fill his moments of quiet with the unwelcome howls of ferocious, unconvincing wargs. Past days of sunlight dappled on a willow-wand of a boy, who ran after him with worship and challenge. Did I scare you?
"No," he said as he always had, and wept again, in painful joy. "Not for a moment."

The Pep Band Perspective
"Timeout. Media Timeout."
That's our cue to play. And by "our," I mean the pep band. I work at WFUV, but I don't call basketball games, I play music for them. As President of the Fordham Band, I help lead the group of rugby shirts next to the student section. So, in way I'm helping provide "color" to the game, but it's quite more than that.

Tips for Preventing Accidents
Safety in the home is an important concern for older adults. Poor eyesight and hearing, arthritis, dementia and side effects from medications are all factors that can make a simple trip to the kitchen a potentially dangerous undertaking.
Due to the fact that injuries to older adults are more severe because of brittle bones and thin skin, caution should be used at all times, particularly when someone is home alone. Falls are the most common cause of fatal injury to the aged. Many accidents can be prevented by practicing good safety habits and staying alert — even when performing the most mundane tasks. Here are some tips to help prevent accidents.
In the Kitchen
- Turn pan handles away from other burners and the edge of the stove.
- Avoid wearing clothes with long, loose sleeves when cooking.
- Keep fire-resistant potholders near the stove.
- Keep pan lids near your stove. If a small grease fire starts, carefully slide a large lid or larger pan over the pan to smother the flames and turn off the burner. Keep the pan covered until everything is completely cooled off. Lifting the lid to peek will let oxygen in and the fire may reignite. Never pour water on a grease fire or try to carry the pan outside or to the sink.
- Disconnect small appliances when you're not using them.
- Clear counter tops and work areas of all unnecessary objects.
- Keep drawers and cupboards closed.
- Use kitchen appliances with thermostats and timers; the signal lights and buzzers are easier for the elderly to use.
- Clearly mark the "off" position on stoves and ranges so a person with diminished eyesight can easily see if the element is turned off.
- Move frequently used items to chest level to avoid stepping onto stools or chairs to reach objects.
- Wipe up grease or liquid spills immediately.
- Put all stored utensils, dry and canned foods at a convenient height.
- Store hazardous household agents out of the reach of children and confused adults.
- Use a nonslip mat in the sink area to soak up spilled water.
- Never leave food that is cooking unattended.
- Keep towels, food packaging, potholders and other clutter away from burners.
- Use fireproof curtains on windows near the stove.
In the Bathroom
- Use a nonskid mat or strips on the standing area of the tub or shower.
- Install grab bars on the walls of the bathtub and toilet.
- Towel bars and the soap dish in the shower stall should not be used as grab bars.
- Set the water heater thermostat at 110 degrees Fahrenheit or lower to prevent scalding.
- Replace bar soap with liquid soap in plastic pumps. Or, purchase soap on a string or tie a bar of soap in the foot area of a clean nylon stocking; this makes the soap easier to pick up if it is dropped.
- Avoid using bath oils or lotions in the bathtub because they could cause someone to slip.
- Use a non-skid mat on the floor where you exit the tub/shower.
- Keep medications out of the reach of children and confused adults.
- Obtain a raised toilet seat to increase the height of the toilet.
- Have sufficient, accessible light. Leave a night light on while you are sleeping.
- Use a bath bench to eliminate the need to stand in the shower or sit on the floor of the tub.
- Use a hand-held shower hose to make bathing easier.
- Dry off before getting out of the tub. If your feet and the floor are dry, it reduces your risk of slipping when you step out.
In the Bedroom
- Have adequate and accessible lighting available.
- Keep a sturdy nightstand next to the bed so glasses and other personal items are within reach.
- Keep the pathway from the bed to the bathroom clear.
- Make sure the bed is the appropriate height to allow for safe transfers.
In Living Areas
- Arrange furniture and other objects so they are not in the way.
- Couches and chairs should be at the proper height to get into and out of easily.
- Move low-lying objects such as coffee tables, step stools, etc. that may present a tripping hazard.
- Position telephones so they are accessible. Be sure the phone cord is not lying across a walkway because it could cause someone to trip.
- Use strong chairs with armrests that will provide support during transfers.
Outside Your Home
- Pay attention to the surface you are walking on. Be alert for wet or dry leaves, grass and other areas which may be slippery.
- When you get out of a car, test the condition of the ground for wetness before standing up and walking.
- Visually mark concrete or wooden edges with non-slip colored tape to avoid tripping.
- Keep outdoor steps and walkways in good condition and clear of debris.
Proper Lighting
- Always turn lights on before going into a room.
- Have light switches at the top and bottom of stairways and at each end of a hallway.
- Replace burned-out bulbs immediately and make sure to use a bulb with the correct power (wattage).
- Use night lights in the hallways and bathroom.
- Make sure you can safely access lamps and light switches.
- Make sure indoor and outdoor walkways are properly lit, especially at night.
- Have adequate lighting on the stairs.
Walkways and Stairways
- Carpeting should be securely fastened down. Tack down edges of carpets and rugs.
- Remove throw rugs that bunch up or slide, use skid-resistant rugs.
- Keep walkways clear of clutter, especially electrical and telephone cords.
- Place bright, contrasting colored tape on the top and bottom of steps of stairways.
- Install and use secure handrails along the full length of both sides of stairways and hallways.
- Place slip-resistant material on bare stairs.
- Be alert to pets and children who can pop up in front of or behind you.
Taking Medications
- Medicines that are strong enough to cure you can also be strong enough to hurt you if they aren't used right. Make sure you have enough light so you can see what medicine you are taking and ensure that you are taking the right dosage.
- Take medicine in the exact amount and on the same schedule as prescribed by your doctor.
- Always ask your doctor about the right way to take any medicine before you start using it.
- Tell your doctor about past problems you have had with medicines, such as rashes, indigestion, dizziness, or a lack of appetite.
- Keep a daily record of all the medications, vitamins and supplements that you take. Include prescription and over the counter drugs. Note the name of each medicine, the doctor who prescribed it, the amount you take, and the times of day you take it. Keep a copy in your medicine cabinet and one in your wallet or purse.
- Review your medication record with the doctor at every visit and whenever your doctor prescribes new medicine. Your doctor often gets new information about medicines that might be important to you.
- Make sure you can read and understand the medication's name and the directions on the container. If the label is hard to read, ask your pharmacist to use large type.
- Throw medicine away if it has passed the expiration date. You can flush pills down the toilet and wash liquids down your kitchen sink.
Things you should NOT do when taking medicines
- DO NOT stop taking a prescription medication unless your doctor says it's okay – even if you are feeling better.
- DO NOT take more or less than the prescribed amount of any medicine.
- DO NOT mix alcohol and medicine unless your doctor says it's okay. Some medications may not work well or may make you sick if taken with alcohol.
- DO NOT take medicines prescribed for another person or give yours to someone else.
Miscellaneous Tips
- Wear light-colored clothing, put reflector tape on your shoes and carry a flashlight when going out at night.
- Install a telephone within easy reach in sleeping areas and have emergency phone numbers posted nearby in large print.
- Wear shoes that are flexible and easily molded to the feet. House slippers should have soles that don't have too much grip because it could "grab" carpeting and cause a fall. Shoes with backs are best.
- Many older people trap themselves behind multiple door locks that are hard to open, especially in an emergency. Install one good lock that can be opened easily from the inside.
- Have a daily check-in time with a friend, family member or neighbor by phone. This will alert someone if there is a problem and you are unable to answer the phone.
- Always try to see who is at the door before opening it. Look through a peephole or a safe window. Ask any stranger who he or she is, what organization he or she represents and ask them to show their organizational identification. Keep the door locked if you are uneasy.
- Make sure that locks, doors, and windows are strong and cannot be broken easily. Ask the police department to send an officer to your home to suggest changes that could improve your security.
- Use a cane or walker if you need one.
- Do not store bleaches, detergents, bug sprays and other chemicals on a high shelf. They may spill and get into your eyes when you look up to reach for the containers.
- In case of an emergency, your house number should be prominently displayed with large numbers in a contrasting color from the background so your address can be seen easily from the road.
- Carry a cordless phone, cell phone or emergency medical alert button with you at all times. Always use a hands-free carrying case.
- If possible, people with mobility disabilities should sleep on the first floor near a door leading directly to the outside. This would help in case of a fire or other emergency.
- Keep a fire extinguisher handy and know how to use it.
- Install a smoke alarm that has been approved by an independent testing laboratory. For the hearing impaired, special alarms with flashing strobe lights and a sonic alarm should be installed. There are also alarms with lower-pitched alarm sounds that may be easier for hearing-impaired people to hear.
- Smoke alarms should be installed on each level of your home. The National Fire Prevention Association recommends that you sleep with bedroom doors closed to slow the spread of smoke and fumes in case a of fire. If bedroom doors are closed, install interconnected alarms inside sleeping areas. Whether bedroom doors are open or closed, everyone should be able to hear a smoke alarm if it goes off.
- Improperly stored materials such as hair spray, nail polish, deodorants, or other personal care products, and aerosol cans should never be used near a heat source or open flame. All aerosol cans explode if exposed to high heat.
- Gasoline vapors can be ignited by a tiny spark. If you have to store gasoline in your home, make sure it is in containers designed and approved for that purpose. Refuel gas-powered machines out in the open and away from foliage and buildings.
The most important thing to remember about safety is to be aware of your surroundings and stay alert. For more information about safety, talk with your physician, call your local fire or police station or check with other resources that can provide you with more useful tips such as:
- City and County of Honolulu, Elderly Affairs Division (EAD) Information and Referral – 523-4545
- State of Hawaii, Executive Office on Aging (EOA) – 586-0100, or http://health.hawaii.gov/eoa/
- National Fire Protection Association – www.nfpa.org
- National Institute on Aging – www.nih.gov/nia/
Basic Emergency Items for Seniors
Keep these items in a clearly labeled container so they can be easily found and used in case of an emergency. A battery-powered radio – make sure to note which stations provide information in case of a disaster.
- Two battery or solar-powered flashlights. There are also flashlights that can be powered with hand cranks so batteries are not necessary. Make sure the light is bright enough to be useful.
- Extra batteries for hearing aids, flashlights and radios.
- A first-aid kit – regularly check the contents of your kit to ensure there are no expired ointments or other items and make sure its contents are appropriate for the elderly person.
- An extra pair of glasses.
- Extra equipment or medical supplies such as wheelchair batteries or oxygen.
- Note the serial number, make and style of medical devices such as pacemakers.
- Medical insurance and Medicare cards.
- Medical alert wallet card or bracelet - something that identifies hidden medical conditions if an elderly person can't talk.
- A list of prescription medications and dosage amounts.
- A list of the names and phone numbers of physicians and emergency contacts.
Physicians Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST)
Another item to consider keeping is a Physicians Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) document. This is a two-page document of a physician's order that gives patients more control over their end-of-life care. It specifies the types of treatments that a patient wishes to receive towards the end of life. The POLST form documents those decisions in a clear manner and can be quickly understood by all providers, including first responders and emergency medical services (EMS) personnel.
The POLST form should be kept in an easily accessible location such as on the refrigerator or bedside table, in a medicine cabinet or next to a specific door such as the bedroom or front door.
The POLST does not replace an Advance Directive, which is a different document that provides details about an individual's wishes and treatment preferences.
A copy of the POLST form can be downloaded from www.kokuamau.org or call 808-585-9977. That website also has more information about the purpose, use and completion of a POLST.

text: Bill Belichick often does differently than what he says. You have to see what he does, or doesn't do, to ascertain his own current and future plans. I think Belichick's actions are leading to but one conclusion. He views Ryan Mallett as THE current qualified candidate to be the Brady successor. All the attempts by draftnik desires to secure another #5 or #6 draft pick, via trading him have come to nothing. I think Mike Lombardi at the Browns seriously wanted to trade for Mallett, and was prepared to pay for it. All his inquiries were ignored and rebuffed. Belichick knows that Brady's time is coming. He also know that to win in this league you must have a franchise QB, which means losing seasons to position your self to draft such a franchise QB candidate. Or you need a pair of First Round picks to trade yourself into such a position. Once in a blue moon, a premium QB falls into your lap to draft. He thinks it has certainly occured once with Brady in the 6th; and and lightning may have struck twice, possibly with Mallett in the 3rd. In any case the transition will not be easy; and the Fans will rebell as they did in Cleveland, when hometown hero Bernie Kosar went Over the Hill. The hubbub can destroy a team and its Front Office. Having seen it up close and personal, BB is preparing for the Day silently and assiduously. Mallett espite going inot his third season, is really entering only his second Training Camp, with this rookie season Training Camp cut short because of the lockout. But some things are plain when not viewed by the warped lenses of people, with axes pre-ground, in search of a storyline. 1. Malletts athletic abilities with throwing the football remain unchallenged and re-affirmed. He does in fact have a rocket arm, perhaps the best in the league. He has even learned to modulate it some, in short pass situations. 2. The assertation that Mallett had a troubled personality and defects as a team player and team leader, have been clearly laid to rest by Bill Belichick, himself. In two years working with him, Mallett has displayed the desire to show up early, to study hard, to learn, and to keep his mouth shut. So he has accomplished all the things that downgraded him from selection in the First round as insubstantial innuendo. 3. Mallett is a pocket passer, with little thought or ability to run, like Brady. When the fad of the running QB fades with the inevitable torn ACLs, BB will still have a QB backup and candidate successor with premium attributes. 4. We can expect him to see more playing time in Training camp tempered by the need to acclimate Brady with his new receiving corps. So I could see another case of purposeful obfuscation and Poise testing as was done with Cassell in the training Camp of 2008. It is likely that RM will be assigned the WR scrubs and the backup offensive linemen, and told to make do with them. Leading to to a "poor" pre-season performance, just as was done with Cassell, after they were sure he understood the Offense, as manifest during the regular season. This was done to see if he can maintain POISE in tough circumstances. Of course the marginal results will lead the professional Doomsters to call Mallett a failure, and to predict his dismissal from the team. 5. Belichick is in the midst of changing his Pass Offense. He is seeking a more broad based and perhaps, more horizontal and vertical passing Offense, and the receivers to perform in such an Offense. It will take a whole season or more to perfect such a plan. Is it just a coincidence that this change makes more use of Mallett's talents? I think NOT. :snob:

How many college students do you know without a cell phone? None, probably. That's not even the first red flag Monday's Catfish subject, Tyler, should've seen when he began talking to coed Amanda online. They spent two years corresponding via Facebook chat until he enlisted the help of Nev, Max, and MTV to figure out if she was the real deal. Spoiler: She wasn't.
As with most of the reality show's hopelessly romantic subjects, Tyler wanted so badly for Amanda to be real that he ignored the fact that literally no twentysomething party girl would pick "cell phone" as the modern luxury to do without during times of financial difficulties. He even sent her some, ahem, intimate shots of himself when their chats got dirty. As the sage Max noted, let's hope Tyler's face wasn't in them. (Lesson for all the kids out there, and also the celebrities whose phones seem to keep getting hacked: Don't include your face in the nude selfies you pose for in front of your full-length mirror when you're bored. It'll always come back to bite you in the end.)
One of Tyler's friends maintained the entire time that he thought it was actually a dude, and guess what? He was right. Amanda turned out to be Aaron, a young black gay man who'd been catfishing for eight years with three different profiles, talking to up to 100 guys at a time. He got kicked out of college when he was caught catfishing his RA, but somehow maintained his online activities were harmless until Tyler confronted him about it.
Aaron's friends knew he had fake profiles but didn't know the extent of his problem. Tyler's friends tried to play it cool when he told them what had happened, but their obvious homophobia was a little off-putting. Although Aaron wanted to stay friends, it was clear that wouldn't happen. On the bright side, Aaron finally got the courage to move from his tiny Michigan town to New York City, where people are more accepting of his sexuality and it's easier to date.
It's always tough to watch the show, especially when you can tell how horribly things are going to go for the person. But there's a silver lining in Tyler's situation: He is objectively one of the most attractive dudes the show has ever featured, and he is going to get so much ass after this.
Catfish airs Monday nights at 11 p.m. on MTV.

Glendale, AZ (SportsNetwork.com) - The United States men's national team surrendered a pair of second-half goals on Wednesday and settled for a 2-2 draw with Mexico in an international friendly at University of Phoenix Stadium.
After suffering a 2-0 defeat in a friendly against Ukraine back on March 5, Jurgen Klinsmann's side was looking for a better performance against their fiercest rivals.
With just 10 weeks remaining before the World Cup kicks off in Brazil, Klinsmann's starting 11 contained a few surprises as Brad Davis was tabbed to start ahead of Landon Donovan and Chris Wondolowski got the nod up top next to Clint Dempsey, leaving Eddie Johnson on the bench.
Klinsmann's bench also included 18-year-old Julian Green, who recently elected to play for the United States over Germany.
Green has featured for the United States and Germany at the youth level, playing for the U.S. Under-18 team in 2012 before representing Germany in 2014 European Under-19 Championship qualifying.
Despite some interesting lineup choices, Klinsmann's selections were right on the money as the Americans came out quick and sharp in the first 30 minutes on Wednesday.
The Americans wasted no time taking the lead in the 15th minute as an in- swinging corner kick off the foot of Graham Zusi found the foot of Michael Bradley, who volleyed it home at the back post.
The hosts then made it 2-0 in the 28th minute when Tony Beltran sent a cross into the area from the right flank that was nodded on by Bradley before finding Wondolowksi alone at the back post for the easy tap in.
But it was a tale of two halves as Mexico came out as the aggressors in the second 45 minutes, looking confident and beating the U.S. to many second balls.
Mexico pulled within one three minutes into the second half when veteran defender Rafael Marquez was left unmarked on a corner kick and nodded it past U.S. goalkeeper Nick Rimando from six yards out.
Klinsmann brought in three of his allotted six substitutions on the hour mark with the introductions of Green, Donovan and defender Clarence Goodson, but the visitors found an equalizer just six minutes later when Paul Aguilar smashed one off the post and Alan Pulido was there to slide it home.
The match really opened up in the final 10 minutes and the U.S. looked to have scored a winner with five minutes to play after Johnson was played through via a brilliant ball from Dempsey and fired it home, but the assistant referee's flag was up for offside.
The Americans had one last opportunity to steal a victory as Dempsey lined up a free kick from 30 yards out deep in stoppage time, but the Seattle Sounders FC man flubbed his strike wide and the sides settled for a stalemate.
The U.S. will return to the pitch with another international friendly against Azerbaijan on May 27 in San Francisco.
