Section 2 of the June 1.2011 edition of the Almanac
2 S E C T I O N Community June 1, 2011 Stories about people and events ALSO INSIDE in the community. 24 |C L AS S I F I E D S C A LE N DA R 23 |R E A L E S TAT E 33 Riley's Place offers play therapy to special kids one hug at a time Submitted by Scott Delucchi, a board member of Riley's Place and a senior vice president with the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA, which has placed five of its shelter animals with Riley's Place. I f animals could talk or text, Riley's Place would outrank Justin Bieber in Facebook friends. For now, the volunteer-powered nonprofit leasing space on a Woodside property is growing one hug at a time when special kids experience its unique hoof and fur therapy. Founded in 2009, Riley's Place is dedicated to enriching the lives of children on the San Francisco Peninsula experiencing chronic or life-threatening health problems and/or challenging family situations. Children, who've spent far too much of their young lives around lab coats, blood draws, and the inside of MRI machines and transitional homes, can kick-up dust in a barn where they might groom a miniature horse, ride in a pony cart, go nose-to-nose with a Nigerian Dwarf goat, or cuddle the best laptops -- a bunny, hen or guinea pig. Programs offered through Riley's Place are free. Their onsite play dates with fourlegged friends, visits to private homes for children too ill to travel, and time spent at Ronald McDonald House and Haven Family House encourage and facilitate children's interaction with animals, allowing them to experience the joy and healing that spending time with animals can bring. Riley Church, the inspiration, was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in 2004 and passed away two years later at age 14. Near the end, when Riley could no longer travel, friends brought a miniature horse to her San Carlos home.

Call 650-851-0147. www.smcl.org continued from page 21 pure joy on Riley's face when the horse walked to her and stayed there with her head in Riley's lap was the event that led to Riley's Place. In 2009, the National Center for Equine Facilitated Therapy invited Riley's Place to share its lovely, 12-acre Woodside property and they've made the most of the sweetheart lease, adding a goat jungle gym, bunny cottage, garden and tree fort with a million-dollar view. A Tuff Shed for office work, a passenger vehicle to bring kids on site, and gift cards to Portola Valley Feed top their wish list; annual expenses for a miniature horse run just over $4,000. Riley's Place is lean, smart and resourceful. In well-run nonprofits, 75 or 80 cents of every dollar funds programs and services versus "overhead." At Riley's Place, it's closer to 85 cents. The vision and leadership comes from Wendy Mattes, who was Riley Church's riding instructor at Webb Ranch. This superwoman has served as the organization's only executive director, collecting no salary; she cultivates board members and volunteers, books visits, posts on Facebook, oversees animal husbandry, and writes the best thank-you's, whether donations are alfalfa hay or checks. She recruits board members to complement her skills: an attorney, builder, retired Atherton police chief Glenn Nielsen, an equine veterinarian, Riley's former pediatric oncologist at Lucile Packard, and seasoned nonprofit executives. Riley Church's parents, Andrea and Martin Church of CELEBRATION San Carlos, have been involved from the beginning and now serve on the board. But, one visit says much more than a peek at the books or board roster. It's why Riley's Place holds a monthly open house. Somewhere between hearing Riley's story, petting a "mini," and climbing the tree fort, adults get why it's so meaningful for kids to feel like kids, not patients, when Riley's Place becomes their place for the day. Visit Rileys-Place.org for more information. To arrange for an onsite visit or off-site visit to a facility, contact Wendy Mattes at (650) 703-5199 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Riley's Place is celebrating its second anniversary with a benefit dinner and concert on Saturday, June 11, from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m., at the Palo Alto Elks Lodge, 4249 El Camino Real. The event will feature a performance by the Italian tenor Pasquale Esposito. Tickets at $150 each (deductible portion is $65) are limited. For more information or to buy tickets for this event that directly benefits Riley's Place, call (650) 703-5199 or email wendy@ rileys-place.org.

Fresh smell
posted 6 years ago
This won't eliminate smells, but does help in between clean-ups. It has a natural citrus smell which is better than some of those spray cans scents. It is convenient but only lasts 1 month.
Pros: smells good
Cons: none

The nation's crackdown against Medicare fraud escalated Wednesday, with the most arrests in a single day announced in Detroit and six other U.S. cities with major fraud problems.
In all, 107 people, charged with bilking $452 million in false billings from Medicare, were named in indictments brought by the U.S. Justice Department.
Twenty-two of the people indicted were from metro Detroit, including four licensed social workers.
The 22 were charged with $58 million in fraudulent billings, often for services that never were rendered or that were medically unnecessary, the indictments charged.
Home health care fraud remains one of metro Detroit's top Medicare fraud problem areas, officials said.
But the scams announced Wednesday also show a troubling trend of "exploiting disabled adults in adult foster care homes," said Barbara McQuade, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan in Detroit.
Staff at the homes -- which serve poor people with psychiatric problems or developmental disabilities -- give painkillers and other prescription medicines, as well as cash kickbacks, to residents in exchange for their Medicare information, said Gejaa Gobena, assistant chief attorney general in the Detroit office.
Other times, health care providers, licensed social workers and their staffs used well-practiced schemes in which paid recruiters hung out on street corners and near soup kitchens and homeless shelters to obtain Medicare information from recipients, he said.
Psychotherapy or counseling services also appear to be a new area for fraud. The indictments underscore how important it is for health care workers to protect their own licensing information, federal officials said.
In one of the Detroit indictments, Funderburg Clinical and Community Services, with psychotherapy clinics in Detroit and Southfield, submitted $3 million in fraudulent billings. Controller Sayani Edwards, 32, of Taylor and Angel Williams, 27, of Southfield, an office manager, are charged with billing Medicare using provider numbers of licensed social workers without their knowledge or permission for services not needed or performed, according to the indictment.
The indictments also show the extent to which some health care providers go to hide their profits by using international bank accounts.
In another indictment, Raymond Arias, owner of Elite Wellness in Westland, which claimed to provide infusion therapy to HIV and AIDS patients, is charged with billing Medicare for $12 million for care that was neither needed nor provided.
Medicare paid him $3.8 million, of which about $2.6 million was transferred to accounts in Mexico and Panama, according to the indictment. In one three-month period in 2010, Arias made 19 wire transfers to the accounts, the indictment said.
U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in a statement that new powers given the federal government under health care reforms allow it to stop all future payments to the 52 providers named in Wednesday's indictments.
"Today's arrests send a strong message to criminals that the consequences of committing Medicare fraud are serious," Sebelius said.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said the indictments "are at the heart of an administration-wide commitment to protecting American taxpayers from health care fraud."
"We are determined to bring to justice those who violate our laws and defraud the Medicare program for personal gain," he said.
Wednesday's indictments were the fourth in a series of such operations in the last two years, Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer said in Washington.
"These fraud schemes were committed by people up and down the chain of health care providers -- from doctors, nurses and licensed clinical social workers to office managers and patient recruiters," Breuer said.
The arrests come as top lawmakers appealed to health care professionals in the private sector to help combat Medicare fraud. Six members of the Senate Finance Committee, led by ranking member Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., announced a bipartisan effort to begin soliciting ideas from interested stakeholders in the health care community looking for a fresh perspective and potential solutions that may have been overlooked.
Since their creation in 2007, the joint federal task forces operating in Detroit and eight U.S. cities with high rates of fraud have charged 1,300 defendants with more than $4 billion in false claims.

The 12-day annual All India Nau Sainik Camp 2013 (AINSC-2013) is scheduled to begin here on January 7.
The annual feature that has been rescheduled due to Phailin cyclone that hit the Odisha coast on October 12, is now being conducted on the campus of the erstwhile Naval Maritime Academy (NAMAC) at Visakhapatnam, Camp Commandant Commodore M Dimri told media persons here on Friday.
A total of 590 cadets, 204 girls and 386 boys, selected from 17 directorates of NCC across the country are attending the AINSC 2013. This year the number of girl cadets has been increased to empower the girls.
The camp is an annual feature of the NCC training calendar and provides an opportunity for naval NCC cadets from all over India to interact and promote esprit de corps and national integration.
The cadets representing various directorates will compete in the fields of firing, boat pulling, ship modelling, drill, semaphore, service subjects and seamanship as part of the NCC ethos of inculcating a healthy competitive spirit amongst its cadets. Apart from individual prizes and team trophies in all the events, the cadets will compete to help their directorate bag the Best Directorate Trophy.
Training classes
Personality development and IT training classes will also be conducted for the cadets at the camp. The cadets will also get an exposure to naval operations and shipboard life during the 'Day-at-sea' to be conducted by the Eastern Fleet and will visit various naval ships and establishments. All the cadets will also undertake educational tours to Kailashgiri and Kursura Submarine Museum.

Category: Navigating Name Problems and Disputes
Name lover Kristin Alexander, creator of the blog What She Said, went crazy over baby girl names. Her story:
"BRAHNwyn!" he said incredulously. "BRAHNwyn?"
"Well, when you say it like that, it doesn't sound very pretty," I pouted.
Granted, Bronwyn was a guilty pleasure. I didn't really expect my husband to go along with it as the given name for any daughter we might have. But must his voice take on that grating nasal edge when he said it out loud? He sounded like a goose honking.
No more than eight weeks up the duff, I was still newly pregnant when my husband and I began discussing potential baby names for our unborn child. I had just informed him that I really liked the name Bronwyn Rose for a girl, but admitted that with the last name of Alexander, I was worried about her initials spelling "bra."
"That's your only concern about the name Bronwyn?!" my husband asked in amazement.
The Question of the Week:
Who makes the ultimate baby name decisions in your family?
Does Mom run around gathering baby name ideas, while Dad makes the ultimate judgment (as it sometimes seems from the discussion of this topic on our forums)?
Or do both partners discuss, but Mom gets the ultimate say?
Do you truly decide as a team, with both partners' opinions weighted equally?
Or is it complicated….in which case you've got to give us all the details!
First, take the poll below.
You're several months pregnant, when the conversation turns — as it often does — to names. You don't have a name picked out yet and you say you're considering several options. So your friend or sister-in-law or neighbor says, "Just don't use Sophie or Sadie or Benjamin or Nathan. I'm reserving those names in case I have another baby."
Well, as it happens, Sophia is on your list. And so is Nathaniel. You may want to use one of them, you may not, but you certainly don't want to be forced to take them out of consideration just because someone else calls dibs on them.
Should you stand up for your right to use whatever name you want, no dibs allowed? Should you just quietly go your own way as if the claim had never been laid down? Or should you back away from the newly-reserved names?
That's our question of the week: What's fair in baby-naming? Can you reserve a baby name? Should you respect someone else's "claim" on a name?
This week's Berry Question of the Week comes from a Kansas mom named Amy, who is excitedly awaiting the arrival of a daughter to add to her trio of well named boys. Problem is, she's waited so long to have a little girl that she feels the name she's looking for can be nothing short of perfect. She writes:
My husband and I are having our first daughter after three boys and several years of trying for another without any luck. So this baby girl feels sooo special and I want her to have a name that's perfect as she'll definitely be our last.
The problem is that my husband and I just can't agree on what we want. I have looked at SO many names and I feel like I'm running out of ideas- and I can't even seem to stick with one style.
I like sweet and feminine, modern and spunky, hip and vintage, and word names. I can say I want something that's not too common and that I'm not a fan of hybrid or invented names. My husband's style just seems to lean to "no". Aargh.
Recently we asked the Nameberry facebookers (Have you joined yet? Better hurry on over there) to tell us which baby names they'd loved that their partners nixed.
The question prompted a flood of comments, with 65 (and counting) berries weighing in on which beloved names their partners banished from consideration, and why.
