The SOS Scholastic Traveler Membership: The SOS Scholastic Programs are available to international students or scholars who are engaged in full-time educational activities outside their home country. Non-students are eligible to purchase SOS Global Traveler and Expatriate programs.
An Assistance Membership includes:
Basic Plan Coverages:
With HTH Worldwide, students pursue their global travels secure in the knowledge that they can access quality medical care when and where they need it. Our global health plans are comprehensive, competitively priced, and come with critically important health information and medical assistance services.
iNext offers a complete network of travel insurance coverage provided through one of the world's leading travel insurance and emergency assistance plan providers. Supplemental and Comprehensive travel coverage are available to both individuals and groups traveling outside of the United States.
Your child's health and safety are of the highest concern to us. We require that all students remain covered under their domestic health insurance policies during their time abroad, and can provide us with proof of overseas coverage. Some domestic insurance policies do not extend overseas, so it is important that you check with your insurance provider to see whether or not your child will be covered outside of the U.S. If your child is not covered outside of the country under their current policy, we require that you purchase additional travel health insurance to help cover them while abroad.
We also highly recommend that at least one parent has a valid passport in the case that there is an emergency and they have to travel abroad.
For certain programs, Loyola will purchase a local healthcare policy for students in addition to their domestic policy, to comply with local standards. Students participating in Loyola Programs and Loyola Exchanges (as opposed to Loyola affiliations and non-Loyola programs) will also receive emergency medical evacuation and repatriation insurance through Chartis. In addition to emergency medical evacuation and repatriation insurance and local policies (when applicable), parents and students can consider additional Security Evacuation coverage through companies such as CISI- Cultural Insurance Services International (http://culturalinsurance.com) or iNext Security Evacuation (http://www.inext.com). When using U.S. health care policies abroad, parents and students should expect to pay for medical services up front, and then receive reimbursement from their insurance provider. Please note that the emergency insurance provided through Chartis will only cover emergency assistance and medical evacuation/repatriation, it will not cover theft or loss of valuables. As a general rule, we recommend that students leave their valuables at home, but for some students, valuables may be covered under their parents' homeowner's insurance. Others may be covered through a local policy sponsored by Loyola. Students should find out whether they will be covered for theft or loss of valuables through a domestic or local insurance policy before traveling.
All students traveling with a Loyola Program, Exchange, or Affiliation will have close access to medical facilities while abroad. For students taking prescription medications, we recommend bringing a full term's supply with them to avoid potential complications in having prescriptions filled overseas. Students traveling with prescription medications will need to carry a photocopy of their prescription in case it is needed. Students suffering from a recurrent or ongoing medical condition should make sure to pack a complete medical record to share with health officials abroad. Please inform the study abroad office if your student needs special accommodations, or must consult a specialist abroad. We need time to work out special arrangements, and in some cases, we will need to determine whether a student's health needs can be adequately met at their program of choice.

To learn more about performance halter rules, refer to Rule SHW365 in the AQHA Official Handbook of Rules and Regulations. (Journal photo)
As exhibitors and owners of performance halter horses tabulate qualifying points for the 2013 AQHA world championship shows, they are encouraged to review the performance halter qualifying rules.
Horses are required to earn 10 performance points during the respective 2013 world show qualifying period in order to earn an invitation to compete in performance halter at that world show. Performance points must be earned in addition to the requisite performance halter points.
"With qualifying periods winding down for the 2013 world shows, this is a gentle reminder to exhibitors to verify that their horses have earned 10 performance points during the qualification period," said Tom Persechino, AQHA executive director of competition and breed integrity.
For horses qualifying in youth, amateur and Select amateur performance halter, the 10 performance points may be earned in any division – youth, amateur, Select amateur and open. Showmanship points do not count toward the 10 performance points required.
For open performance halter qualifiers, performance points must be earned in the open division.
Changes to performance halter qualification for the 2012 and 2013 world shows, and onward, were announced in October 2011.
"There was a special consideration for the 2012 world shows given by the AQHA Executive Committee where only five performance points were needed," Persechino said. "Exhibitors were also informed that the performance-point total would revert to 10 points for the 2013 world shows, so we want to remind them of that as they are looking ahead to spring and summer shows."
Horses that earn performance halter world championships at any 2012 AQHA world show will receive an invitation to return to the 2013 respective world show. However, those horses will still be required to earn 10 performance points during the qualifying period for the invitation to be honored.
To learn more about performance halter rules, refer to Rule SHW365 in the AQHA Official Handbook of Rules and Regulations. The mobile-optimized online handbook can be viewed at www.aqha.com/handbook.
Year-End High-Points
Performance points earned will not cross over to different divisions for performance halter year-end high-point awards. To be eligible to earn a year-end high-point award in performance halter, a horse must earn at least 10 performance points in its respective division(s) (youth, amateur, Select amateur or open) during the award year.
For example, if a horse has 100 performance halter mare points and 16 western pleasure points, and another horse has 135 performance halter points and seven western pleasure points, the second horse is not eligible for the year-end high-point award in performance halter because it has not earned at least 10 performance points during the year.

Comments about Park Tool BX-2 Blue Box Tool Case:
This is a high quality toolbox that is worthy of the hefty sticker price in build quality. Speaking of hefty, that is one of the few drawbacks of this unit, it weighs a solid bit, without the tools. I just got mine and am in training for the day I have to transport this thing. Great organization....handy dividers for the bottom main compartment and then a series of dividers or maybe better called "boards" with tool/screwdriver/pockets that are thoughtfully placed and good at holding an assortment of normal and weird items on both sides of the board. One of the boards is velcroed in place and can be removed to be "hung" off the front of the suitcase to make a sort of traveling tool bench. I think you get the idea. If you've got the loot, this will be a sweet box that will help you stay organized for a lifetime... still my old box, that didn't have a quarter of the organizational skills was getting the job done, and cost nothing next to this. Ah life, one fuzzy judgement call after another.

As what has seemed to even the most avid political enthusiasts a long political season nears an end, the last registered voters make choices Tuesday at one of 27 home precincts.
The ballot they will cast is topped by the presidential, gubernatorial, and state party candidates on the Democrat, Republican, and Libertarian tickets and followed by races in which
Republican Rep. Walter B. Jones is seeking a 10th term representing a newly drawn, 22-county U.S. House of Representatives District 3, which includes Craven, Pamlico and Jones counties, challenged by Democrat Erik Anderson, a Marine Corps veteran and newcomer to politics.
Jones, who sits on the U.S. Armed Services Committee, was in early opposition to the wars in
Known to buck the Republican establishment, Jones has been a staunch supporter of veterans and fishermen and feels like the most important issue facing the federal government now is the deficit.
Anderson, a 33-year-old former Greenville Wal-mart manager, is running as a Democrat but said that's because he had to pick a party to challenge incumbent Jones, with whom he differs strongly on some issues and whose leadership he questions.

Spencer graduated from Campbell University School of Law with a juris doctor degree in May 1987.
"The opportunity to become a judge presented itself. I am not very political so that aspect of the position concerned me. However, here was the opportunity to do more for my community and to continue to be of service to my community.

Depression and diabetes have long been associated. A study links diabetes with bulimia, binge eating, and intermittent explosive disorder. A key point: These disorders are often evident long before the appearance of diabetes. Targeting the eating disorder might be the best defense.

By 2035, there will be about 592 million people in the world with diabetes, according to the International Diabetes Federation. "This figure takes into account changes only in the population and patterns of urbanization, and is almost certainly an underestimation."

And now it's down to 51.
The fourth installment of USA TODAY High School Sports' "Best Of" contest series - the first-ever Best High School Football Coach competition - rolled into its regional round on Wednesday. The 51 regional finalists each won their state contest and for the start of the regional round all vote counts returned to zero.
In the state round, which concluded Tuesday, fans cast approximately 4.8 million total votes. The leading vote-getter among the 408 coaches was Philip Haywood of Belfry High in Kentucky. He received 149,760 votes.
The deadline for voting is Friday at 12 noon.
USA TODAY staffers selected eight active head football coaches in each state and Washington, D.C. after more than a month of conversations with local media and other state/school officials with high school football expertise. From there, the fans decide which coach emerges from a list of 408.
The state round began Sept. 30 and ended Oct. 8. The 51 winners advanced to a regional round, where they are divided among eight regions of six or seven coaches apiece. The regional round began at noon (ET) Oct. 9 and ends at noon (ET) Oct. 18. The eight regional winners move onto the national round, which starts at noon (ET) Oct. 21 and ends at noon (ET) Oct. 29. The champion is crowned based on most votes in the final round.
The athletic department of the winning coach will receive $2,000. Second through fifth places also receive cash prizes for the athletic departments: second ($1,000), third ($500), fourth ($250) and fifth ($100). All eight finalists receive banners for their schools.
The "Best Of" contest series launched last November with the best high school football rivalry competition, won by Brookfield vs. Marceline in Missouri. The teams celebrated their national title rivalry on Sept. 13 in Brookfield. In January, Hartford (Vt.) was crowned as the People's Champion high school football team. And the monster of them all – the top high school mascot last spring – was won by the Centralia (Ill.) Orphans after 80 million total votes were cast during the competition.

OXFORD, Ohio – Gary Russo (4-for-5) led a dynamic offensive display for the Miami University baseball team in its 14-9 win over Xavier in the Joe Nuxhall Classic on Tuesday.
The sophomore finished a home run shy of the cycle to give Miami (13-17) its third-straight win.
After enduring a rain delay for an hour and 20 minutes, the RedHawks whacked three singles in the bottom of the first, with Chad Sedio's rope through the box scoring Dan Walsh and Russo to put them up 2-0. With the bases loaded, Matt Honchel drew a five-pitch walk to put the Red and White ahead 3-0 after one full inning.
XU got on the board in the second inning on a Stephen Schoettmer RBI double which cut the MU lead to 3-1. The Red and White responded in kind with an explosive second inning, one where they scored a season-high eight runs to blow the game open at 11-1. Russo went the other way on a 2-2 pitch and drove the ball into the corner for a two run triple, bringing Walsh and John Crummy around. Russo then scored on Scott Slappey's sacrifice fly to right field. The RedHawks continued their onslaught with two outs and nobody on. Sedio drew a four-pitch walk and scored on Ryan Elble's double that stayed just inside the third base line. After walks by Honchel and Steve Sada loaded the bases, Jake Romano hit a two-run single up the middle to extend the lead to 9-1. A passed ball moved Sada and Romano to third and second, respectively, and allowed them both to score on Walsh's two-run single to right.
The Musketeers began to chip away at the RedHawks' 10-run lead in the third, plating a pair of unearned runs on a Miami throwing error and a sacrifice fly. Another sacrifice fly in the fourth, followed by another MU throwing error saw Miami's lead cut to 11-5 at that point. Out of the pen, Ryan Haynes held the Musketeers there, inducing a fly out and picking off a runner at second base to escape the jam.
Miami added to its lead in the fifth as Crummy was hit by a pitch, Russo walked and Slappey singled to load the bases. While Sedio's fly ball did not end up scoring Crummy, who was thrown out at home on an impressive play by left fielder Joe Forney, Honchel's two-out RBI single plated Russo to put the RedHawks on top 12-5 after five complete innings.
Appearing in his first game since March 14, Haynes helped Miami bridge the gap by tossing 2.1 scoreless innings before giving way to Wynston McMartin with two outs in the sixth. While XU put together some scoring threats, the MU bullpen entered the ninth without allowing a run. The RedHawks added two more insurance runs in the eighth on Crummy's RBI triple and Russo's RBI single to go up 14-5.
The Musketeers made things interesting in the ninth, getting a pinch-hit RBI single from Bo Slemons along with an RBI double by Dan Rizzie to cut the gap to 14-7 with one out. Derek Hasenbeck added another single to pull Xavier within 14-8, bringing Alex Brown to the mound for Miami. The senior lefty induced an RBI groundout and ended the game by forcing Brian Bruening to fly out.
Russo was one of four RedHawks with multiple hits, reaching base five times on a triple, double, two singles and a walk while scoring three runs and driving in three more. Romano and Walsh both went 3-for-6 with two RBI and two runs scored while Crummy went 2-for-5 on the evening. Haynes (1-0) picked up his first collegiate win by tossing 2.1 scoreless innings, allowing four hits and a walk while striking out two. Christian Bokich made his first-collegiate start for Miami and allowed five runs, though only one was earned, on six hits in 3.1 innings while finishing with three strikeouts.
With the win, Miami is in the Joe Nuxhall Classic Championship Game against Cincinnati. The RedHawks and Bearcats play at approximately 6:30 p.m., or following the conclusion of the consolation game between Xavier and Wright State at 3 p.m.

(WASHINGTON) — The Department of Health and Human Services has extended the deadline for people trying to enroll in Affordable Care Act coverage through the federal website until Sunday, Feb. 22.
The original deadline was Sunday, Feb. 15, but consumers cited technical delays and long wait periods on the phone.
The federal extension is in addition to the states who announced extensions via their own exchanges over the weekend.
"For those consumers who were unable to complete their enrollment because of longer than normal wait times at the call center in the last three days or because of a technical issue such as being unable to submit an application because their income could not be verified, we will provide them with a time-limited special enrollment period for March 1 coverage," a spokesperson for HHS said in a statement.
The spokesperson said only people who started trying to enroll before the original deadline can take advantage of this extension. It's not clear, however, how HHS will verify whether users started signing up before or after Feb. 15.

I dont think thats true. From what i remember, Brown was a stud in Lakerland. I dont know what happend to him on the Suns, but the few games i did see, he played rather well. They should have started him instead of Duddly. I really wouldnt mind giving Brown a shot. If we could get Warrick+Brown+lakers 1st for traitor Gordon, i would consider that a win.
Im just afraid of asking to much and PHX calling our bluff. I wouldn't want to be stuck with a upset star and have my hand forced like denver last year and orlando this year!
I don't know if its possible but I'd love to S & T Gordon to Chicago for Noah straight up, and I think they would have to at least consider it.
Its just kinda creepy. One of the best signatures i have ever seen, but creepy. Specially with the picture where his hands are together like an evil Mr. Burns. I could actually see him posing like that in a suns jersey...........
........right after he screws us over.
Really motiejunas face of your franchise... I'm sorry, I feel for your team.
Lamb is like miller after downing a bottle of cough syrup
And Lowry is at most a top 15 pg.
Your team should be happy to get gordon for those two players and the pick.
Both players are unproven and gordon is a top 5 sg. Yes he has injury concerns but your team will have a steal on their hands if that boy can put in 2 full seasons over this contract. You've got to give to get buddy.
And here you go read the comparison on here
And bro I don't trust our med staff to keep him healthy for even 5 games let alone 2 seasons Ever since Yao started getting injury trouble, our players have all caught on to that disease
Aggregate IQ... of forum... sinking!
"Hornets means nothing." - Tom Benson
Lowry was a top 15 PG this past season before his injury.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I personally just don't like lambs demenor looks like he might pass out at any moment, like he doesn't care about the game.
personally I want to trade him out to a team with a horrid medical staff, send him to Portland, but in all fairness I hope he plays well enough to make both sides of the trade equal, whatever that may be.
This whole thread is lol-worthy. You guys do realize that as soon as Gordon signs the offer sheet he can't be sign and traded at all never mind to the Rockets. On top of that, unless Gordon changes his mind and rejects the offer sheet from the Suns, NO can only negotiate with the Suns for a sign and trade.
You aren't going to fleece the Suns by the way, so asking for Gortat, Marshall, Morris, unprotected picks ain't gonna fly. It will be at MOST Marshall(or Morris), 2 lotto protected 1st's. When the Suns S&T Joe Johnson it was for Diaw, 2 picks. If you ask for the world the Suns will say "No thanks, have fun building around your disgruntled star who does not want to be there".
Last edited by BallSoHard; 07-07-2012 at 02:38 PM.
And just why would the Suns renounce and allow you guys to sign and trade him? If no sign and trade is worked out by the 11th, Gordon will sign the offer sheet and NO have the choice to match/not match. That's it. If they match they can't trade him until Dec 15th, and he can veto any trade for a year. Good luck with that.
If they can make it more palatable by giving NO something will take the sting out of it, fine.
It happened to the Suns with Joe Johnson.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and it's a great occasion to have your family join you in the kitchen for a fun day of food prep. When the enticing aromas of food start wafting through your house, it's likely that your pets will want to get in on the action. However, the hectic environment in the kitchen on this food-filled holiday poses some potential health risks for your pets. Remember these safety tips as you whip up the perfect batch of mashed potatoes and gravy:
Let's talk turkey: If you decide to give your pet a nibble of your Thanksgiving turkey, make sure it's boneless and well-cooked—no raw or undercooked turkey, which may contain salmonella bacteria.
Sage advice: While sage can be a delicious addition to your Thanksgiving stuffing, it and many other herbs contain essential oils and resins that can cause gastrointestinal upset and central nervous system depression in pets. Cats are especially sensitive.
Doughy dangers: When an animal ingests raw bread dough, his body heat causes the dough to rise in his stomach. Ouch! This may cause vomiting, severe abdominal pain and bloating, which could become a life-threatening emergency. Cake batters made with raw eggs are also dangerous to pets.
Portion control, please: While it's ok to share a bit of well-cooked turkey with your furry friend, it's best to stick to your pet's regular diet during the holidays. Allowing your pets to over indulge could cause stomach upset, diarrhea or pancreatitis.
To avoid potential kitchen dangers, it's a good idea let your furry friends hang out in a quiet room away from the kitchen until all the food prep is finished. As a reward, consider fixing your pets some special holiday treats. Try our recipes for pumpkin pie stuffing and pumpkin pie cookies for cats and dogs!
For a full list of Thanksgiving safety tips, check out our Pet Care section.
How sad (and what a severe disconnect)! Giving thanks over an inhumanely slaughtered animal...especially on an animal welfare website. Shame shame shame on you ASPCA.
I think turkeys are slaughtered just like chickens. Off with the head quickly and it's over. Not a nice thought, but it's quick and if there is pain, it's only for a brief second. Enjoy your bird and don't flip me the bird.
Death may come quickly for turkeys but life for them is brutal, short and in filthy, inhumane unnatural conditions on factory farms. Wake up and smell the giblets! I will prepare a vegan feast featuring Tofurkey (very tasty) and stuffing with Field Roast grain sausages. Thanksgiving is a day of gratitude, not slaughter and death.
Thanksgiving Turkey
PLEASE!!!! The ASPCA is constantly e-mailing us to write to our congressman to help pass humane laws. This is the way to go. If you want to be a vegetarian, so be it, but the truth of the matter is that we are omnivours - we need meat and vegetables, fruit, etc. Not eating meat (this is passive) doesn't stop corrupt, greedy corporations from doing unspeakable things to animals. Get up, find out what's going on, write your congressman, vote, go with the ASPCA to wall street (this is active), and PLEASE ENJOY THANKSGIVING - INCLUDING A GREAT TURKEY DINNER! Also, do not judge others!
Before over-reacting, keep in mind the ASPCA never encouraged anyone to go out and torture a turkey. They are simply giving advice on how to keep the pets in your home safe if you so choose to serve turkey like most Americans. I'm a vegetarian and agree with the cruelty, but don't think we need to attack the ASPCA for trying to keep our dogs and cats safe on Thanksgiving.
ASPCA-Ameircan Society for the Protection of Some Animals. I though hgihly of this organization.I watched a video of a turkey being slaughtered. Hung upside down, throat slit and weighted and a lot of wing flapping. I am flabbergasted and agree with Ellen.I stopped supporting animal welfare organizations if they served animals at their fund raisers. I am aghast.You cannot be a society to prevent cruelty and advocate killing and eating a turkey, tradition be gone.
This is ASPCA....NOT PETA....
This is ASPCA....NOT PETA.....you twit. If you are going start a rant about the slaughter of inncoent turkeys go do it a website that involves that subject. Not here.
My dogs do get some turkey, mashed potatoes and green vegetables like peas or
French beans and they love it.!!

If your looking for a light wight super warm jacket this is your jacket. I used it on a few winter trips to the mont blanc. Minus 20C + winds of up to 60KMH. It kept me warm and comfortable on the belay and rests. when things got realy bad, it kept me warm on the walk back to the hut. You put it on and fill like your at the hut.
My ex says this thing feels like you're wearing a cloud. She's right, except it's actually warm instead of like the stratosphere. This thing balls up into a 6" sphere, and weights basically nothing. Wore it during the worst 3 storms Rainier has seen in the last few years, and nary I was cold. Will buy this again if mine ever shows wear and tear.
I've had this jacket for almost two seasons now. I use this for skiing, Mountaineering, and just walking around in town. keeping it short, I really like this jacket. It keeps me warm in negative temps with no problems. But the only thing I don't like at all with it is the zipper. It is really hard to zip up with gloves on and it gets caught REALLY easily. I'm not sure why they went with a waterproof zipper on a non-waterproof jacket. I have coats that cost half the price with better zippers. if they wanted to go with total a windproof jacket, they should have used a regular zipper with a windscreen behind it. All around a great jacket.
I was debating between this jacket and the Volant jacket made by Feathered Friends. I've loved everything FF makes, but I wanted something that I might wear in more regular situations as well, not just during the climb. I don't like the look of the Volant, so I decided to try the Nilas.This jacket is very lightweight, very durable, and very comfortable. I took it to the summit of Mt. Rainier, where it held up nicely to 50MPH winds and below-0 temperatures. I had layers on underneath, but felt like this jacket did a great job blocking the wind and staying warm. It comes with its own pack and smushes down to nothing. It also makes a great pillow in the tent. The cuffs continue to hold as tight as they did on day one, and the thumb holes are a nice touch to ensure a good snug fit. The hood fits over all helmets I've worn with it, and pulls tightly around your face when needed. I'm a big fan of this jacket.
I usually don't climb mountain, but last week (end of January) the temperature dropped below -20 to -25°C. Moreover, you can add humidity and a wind factor. Honestly, my freezer was warmer than the temperature felt outside.Well, I was walking outside downtown Montreal wearing this coat with a long sleeves t-shirt only underneath and I was perfectly warm.It is light, comfortable and really warm! No cool breeze could get through anywhere when you squeeze the cords correctly. Wow.
I needed a big-daddy of down jackets, without the bulk of a parka. My requirement was warmth, lightness, and mobility, without breaking the bank. The Nilas hits on all three points, being warm with its 850 rated down and lighter weight. The down hood makes a big difference spending a few hours in the Missouri wilderness making landscape photos, and I can concentrate on making pictures rather than how cold my cranium is. With a thermal base layers and a fleece on underneath this thing is good well into the - degrees. Its also light, which is a factor I considered since I carry 30 pounds of gear, I still had plenty of lower torso coverage to prevent heat from escaping from my core.

Keeping shop open in shadow of derelict building not easy
The owner of a second-hand clothing shop has struggled to serve customers in the shadow of a destroyed downtown Everett building.

In the months after a Nov. 8 fire destroyed the McCrossen Building, Kristen Snow has struggled to serve customers at her nearby second-hand clothing shop.
Julie Muhlstein / The Herald
Kristen Snow opened her second-hand clothes shop, the Klothing Vault, in downtown Everett two days before the Nov. 8 fire that destroyed the McCrossen Building near her shop.
To Kristen Snow, who kept her business open through long, dreary months after the Nov. 8 fire, it's more than a place where she sells used clothes.
It's a hope. It's a new start.
"It's like the phoenix," said Snow, likening the shop she opened just two days before the fire to the mythical bird that rises from ashes.
The walk in front of Snow's shop at 1810 Hewitt Ave. was still blocked with a "Sidewalk Closed" sign late last week. A few customers still wandered in, browsing racks and shelves in the long, narrow store. Fashionable boots, prom dresses, baby items, men's and women's jeans, shirts and jackets, Snow has clothes for every age and size.
That's how she was able to help immediately after the fire, which killed one man and displaced about 40 residents of the 118-year-old apartment building.
The night of the fire, two day days after Snow's grand opening, she had gone home to the Smokey Point area townhouse she shares with her three youngest children. A single mom, she has lived since late 2011 in a Housing Hope transitional housing complex.
Snow, 40, was ready for bed Nov. 8 when she got a call from a friend who works in a bar across the street from the Klothing Vault. The building on the corner was in flames. Snow rushed back to Everett and was relieved to see that "we were still standing."
She couldn't get into her store, so she and a friend went to Comcast Arena, where people who had fled the fire were sheltered. They talked with helpers from the Snohomish County Chapter of the American Red Cross.
With about $45, she said they went to a Walmart and bought socks and a pair of shoes for someone who was shoeless after the fire, then returned to the arena. "Oh, my gosh, you have never seen people so happy for one pair of socks," Snow said.
Snow also handed out Klothing Vault cards for anyone affected by the fire to go to her shop for free clothing -- two pairs of pants, two shirts, a coat and a pair of shoes for each person. "They were all used except maybe two," she said.
After the fire, the Klothing Vault became a place for fire victims to pick up household items. Stephanie Onustack, who works in the shop with Snow, said that through friends they gathered towels, blankets, dishes and even two beds for fire survivors.
Snow knows well from experience what it's like to be in need.
Her business has struggled since the fire, but Snow is working to dig out from years of hard times. In 2008, her marriage ended after a decade. They are still in the process of divorcing, said Snow, whose previous name was Kristen Keck.
Everett's Klothing Vault is only the latest business with that name. Snow had to close her Klothing Vault in Arlington at the end of 2011, after falling behind in rent.
Earlier in 2011, the family lost their Arlington home to foreclosure. Snow said she wasn't able to negotiate a loan modification. For a time, Snow and her girls lived in the back of the Arlington shop after losing the house. "It was like camping," she said.
In good times and bad, Snow has been a worker. For 17 years she was a bartender at Jimmy Z's in Everett, now Tony V's Garage, just up the street from her shop. "I set goals. I saved $20,000 from bartending," said Snow, who also worked as a bookkeeper.
She opened her first used-clothing shop with an income-tax refund. After losing the Arlington shop, she put her clothing inventory into storage and for awhile went back to bartending.
She has five girls, ages 20, 19, 14, 11 and 8. One of the older kids was a foster child she adopted. "Boy, are they my life," said Snow, who drives from her shop to Arlington daily to get her kids from school. The girls often help in the shop.
Snow has tried to provide what she missed as a child. She said she spent part of her childhood with relatives after drugs and alcohol ruined her mother's life. Her father, she said, was in a motorcycle club. Today, Snow brags about her daughters' good grades.
With business off since the fire, Snow said her landlord Pete Sikov has been patient about rent that's slow to come. Sikov also owns the McCrossen property, where demolition is underway.
"He has seen how hard we have worked," said Snow, who built shelves that line the shop walls.
Despite the fire and all that came before it, Snow is thankful for a fresh start. As you leave her store, a sign above the door says "Thank you for your smile."
She's glad she stayed on Hewitt after the fire. "We didn't make a penny through that whole time, but we were helping. I believe that's exactly why we were here," she said.
Snow was amazed the shop and its contents didn't have smoke or major water damage. She can't wait for that sidewalk to open.
"I know it will be successful," Snow said.

LECOM President John M. Ferretti, DO and Provost Silvia M. Ferretti, DO were among the finalists in the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Awards. They joined 24 other business leaders from Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Upstate New York during a ceremony at the Carnegie Music Hall in Pittsburgh.
|Dr. Silvia Ferretti and Dr. John Ferretti stand with Regional Entrepreneur of the Year Finalists in Pittsburgh.
Read the Erie Times News Editorial "LECOM leads with entrepreneur award.
Ernst & Young is a world-wide leader in business services, aiming to bring a positive impact on businesses and markets, as well as on society as a whole. Each year, the firm recognizes the achievements of some of the nation's most innovative business leaders.
LECOM Trustee Kevin Colosimo, JD, nominated the Ferrettis for the regional award. Attorney Colosimo noted that Dr. John Ferretti had the vision to turn the need to educate more primary care physicians into a reality by leading the effort to open the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. When the college opened in 1993, Dr. Silvia Ferretti became the first woman dean of an osteopathic medical college. Together they have shaped the academic direction of LECOM.
From the start, Drs. Ferretti worked to make LECOM different than any other medical college. They took the college beyond the traditional teaching paradigm of lecture and lab work to expand the curricula types to include three more student-centered learning pathways: Problem-Based Learning, Independent Study, and the Primary Care Scholars Pathway - the nation's only three-year, medical degree curriculum. In addition, they have encouraged the growth of the college to include the School of Pharmacy and the expansion of locations from Erie, to Bradenton, Florida and now to Greensburg, Pennsylvania, just outside of Pittsburgh.
|LECOM Trustee Kevin Colosimo congratulates LECOM Provost and President.
In honoring Dr. John and Dr. Silvia, Ferretti, the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year program noted how both have made personal contributions to the LECOM Student Scholarship Fund, supported many community organizations while encouraging LECOM students to make community service a major part of their educational experience.

Cat Paw Injuries
Cat Paw Injury (Feline Paw Injuries)
Signs and Symptoms
A cat paw injury can occur relatively easily and as a result of a variety of different factors and activities. Cats that spend time outdoors are particularly susceptible to developing paw injuries, as they are exposed to rough and uneven ground surfaces, insects and other animals, and many other potentially hazardous situations and elements. However, while indoor cats may be somewhat less prone to becoming injured, they can still experience paw injuries. The types of warning signs and symptoms that a cat will exhibit when suffering from a paw injury will depend upon the specific nature of the injury. That said, most paw injuries will cause a cat to limp or favour the affected paw. As a result, this is the main symptom of a feline paw injury.
Since an injury to a cat's paw can be caused by many different factors and can manifest itself in many different forms, additional symptoms will depend upon the type of injury present. For example, if your cat has experienced a hairline fracture, bruise, or muscle strain, limping and other indications of some discomfort may be the only warning signs. In other cases, decreased activity and an unwillingness to go about daily activities may also occur. Where a cut or other laceration is causing your cat's problem, the wound may be visible. If a laceration becomes infected, the paw may become tender, swollen, warm, and possibly have a bad odor. Cuts and lacerations can occur on the skin of a cat's leg, or on the pads of its feet. An object lodged between a cat's toes can also cause discomfort. When this is the problem, the animal will likely lick or bite at its paw, trying to remove the object. If not removed, the object could potentially give rise to an infection, which would cause further discomfort and symptoms.
Other injuries that can affect cat paws include insect stings, such as bee stings. Since cats often try to inspect, catch, and play with bees, they tend to get stung either on their face or paws. Signs of a bee sting generally began to appear quite quickly. In mild cases, swelling, discomfort, and restlessness are common. The cat may also chew or lick at its affected paw. In addition, the insect's stinger may be visible at the sting site. In more severe cases, significant swelling and respiratory distress may arise, requiring prompt medical attention. However, such extreme reactions are rare in cats. While a cat may display a variety of warning signs when suffering from a paw injury, the most typical symptoms are limping and favoring the injured paw. Although many cat paw problems heal themselves in a short period of time, others require veterinary treatment. If your cat seems to be in particular distress, or if the injury persists for more than a couple of days, be sure to contact your veterinarian.
Generally, it will not be difficult for a veterinarian to diagnose a cat's paw injury and identify the specific type of injury present. The practitioner will conduct a physical exam, looking for clinical signs, and also go over the feline patient's medical history. At this point, you as the pet owner can provide valuable information regarding your cat's recent behaviors, symptoms, and activities. In many cases, a physical exam will be all that is required in order to reach a diagnosis of a certain paw injury. However, in some circumstances further tests and diagnostic tools may be necessary.
For example, if a fracture is suspected to be the feline's problem, an x-ray may be required in order to confirm this suspicion. On occasion, blood tests may be performed in order to check for the presence of an infection or to evaluate the severity of an infection. In most cases, however, a veterinarian will be able to diagnose a cat's paw injury simply based upon clinical signs and a physical examination.
While in some cases cat paws may appear short relative to the length of the animal's body, they are powerful. This power partly comes from the sharp angle formed by the knee and heel of the hind legs. This structure and power gives cats their great ability for sprinting, climbing, and jumping.
Cat paws typically have four or five toes, generally with five in each forepaw and four in each hind paw. Cat paws also have footpads, which provide protection and allow the animal to move quickly and easily. However, sharp or harmful objects can damage or injure these footpads relatively easily, causing discomfort and difficulty with walking, jumping, and climbing. Furthermore, cats can also sustain injuries to the regular skin of their paws, the muscles, tendons, and bones.
As mentioned previously, cat paw injuries can be caused by numerous different factors, incidents, and activities. Many cats are very active and like to run, jump, and climb, either indoors or outdoors. The tendency for cats to engage in such activities increases their chances of sustaining a paw injury. Injuries are particularly likely to occur if cats jump from high heights or land on hard surfaces. Injuries that occur as a result of such activities can include broken bones, strained or torn muscles, or injured tendons.
Climbing or running over sharp objects and rough surfaces can also cause a cat to experience a paw injury. For example, walking over broken glass, thorns, or other sharp objects can cause a laceration of a cat's footpads. Bee stings and catching a paw on an object can also cause injury to a cat. Another common way that cats sustain paw injuries is by fighting with other cats. Typically, this results in lacerations which can potentially become infected. Even something as simple and accidental as a pet owner stepping on their cat's paw can result in a tender bruise or perhaps even a fracture.
While several potential causes of cat paw injuries have been listed above, they represent only a few examples of the many possible occurrences that can give rise to such injuries. Cuts, bruises, infections, muscle strains, and bone breaks can all occur as a result of a myriad of different incidents, causing varying degrees of discomfort and distress for your pet.
The treatment required by your pet will depend upon the type of injury it has sustained. Typically, a small cut will require cleansing and the application of an antiseptic ointment or antibiotic cream. Occasionally, a gauze bandage may be necessary. For any injury that requires a bandage, it's usually best to have a veterinarian apply it, as a bandage can cause discomfort and further damage when too tight. Furthermore, it can be difficult to get a bandage to stay on a cat's paw. If your cat has already developed an infection, antibiotics may be required. When a laceration is large or particularly deep, the feline patient may need to receive stitches in order for the wound to heal properly.
In circumstances where a foreign object is lodged between a cat's toes, causing pain and discomfort, the object should be carefully removed with tweezers. In the case of a broken toenail, the affected paw may be extremely tender. The broken nail may need to be removed completely, in which case anesthesia might necessary. Most paw injuries will heal well without much treatment, as long as the affected paw is not re-traumatized. This is even true for some hairline fractures and soft tissue injuries. Keeping your cat on soft surfaces such as carpet and making sure that its food and water are easily accessible can help your pet through the healing process. In rare circumstances, a splint will be necessary for a short period of time in order to allow for the fracture or other injury to undergo proper healing.
When a cut, irritant, or infection has caused your pet's paw injury, herbal ointments can often help to soothe pain, reduce symptoms, and promote healing. Such ointments are made from natural ingredients with an array of beneficial properties. For example, ingredients such as Arnica and St. John's wort help to clear up bacterial and fungal infections while reducing inflammation, soothing pain, stimulating the immune system, and promoting healing. Therefore, ointments made from natural, herbal ingredients can be very helpful with respect to healing several different types of cat paw injuries.
