Following Christ: Bearing Fruit
My pastor and his wife have been in Ireland for the past couple of Sundays and so, while I'm not usually the one delivering the message, I have been the last two weeks and will be again this coming Sunday. I love to preach and am so grateful to be in a church that welcomes different voices in the pulpit. But this week . . . With the incidents in the US this week, I felt overwhelmed by the prospect of proclaiming the Gospel in the midst of this national crisis.
Yet, I am glad to be fully aware of my inadequacy, to be reminded that Christ's strength is made perfect in my weakness. Thus, leaning into that promise, I approached the task of proclamation, beginning with the morning prayer (below). I preached from Colossians 1:1-14. You can find the audio of the message here, or you may download it using the link below.
Loving God, Holy Lord: you are our strength and our shield. You are the God of Mercy, the God of Peace.
We ask Lord that in this place and at this moment, Oh God, let your Kingdom come; let your will be done. So that right now on earth, we will experience blessed peace, divine mercy, and Kingdom justice.
Lord we ask that you will remind us from whom our help comes. Remind us that you are the source of all provision.
And forgive us.
- Forgive us when we fail to recognize our own sins, so attentive are we to the sins of others.
- Forgive us for failing to hide ourselves in you, so intent are we to step out with false pride in our own humanness.
- Forgive us for relying only on ourselves: idolizing our own strengths and cursing our weaknesses.
- Forgive us when we slip into these godless behaviors and forget that only you are holy.
We ask, Lord God, that you would guide us through the temptations of our lives.
- The temptation of our chosen addictions: substances, attitudes, or actions.
- The temptation to over-simplify complex issues.
- The temptation to offer quick fixes and consider ourselves blameless.
Deliver us Lord, from our selfishness, from our knee-jerk reactions, from our mindless pursuits.
Remind us once again that we are called, through your infinite love and unyielding grace:
- We are called to be your people.
- We are called to be one people—one unified Body of Christ
- We are called to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with you.
- We are called to love our neighbors as ourselves.
- We are called to love you with our whole hearts.
Bring us into this moment unfettered by our own egos.
- Still the voices in our heads that cry out for attention.
- Voices that say, "Make sure you do this, and don't forget that."
- Voices that say, "What's in this for me?" or "This is a waste of my time."
- Voices that say, "I'm not worthy," or "I don't belong."
Make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let us sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that we may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console,
To be understood as to understand,
To be loved as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
It is in dying to self that we are born to eternal life.*
Lord, in your Mercy, Hear our Prayer.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

6 Shows I've Binge-watched
For more than a decade, I watched very little TV. When my children were young, I stuck to things like Arthur (which had the BEST theme song ever) and Cyberchase. Oh and Dragon Tales. Loved that one!
Anyway, along came digital recording and online viewing, bringing an abrupt end to my smug boasts about not watching TV. Believe it or not, I've found a few programs I like every bit as much as those the kids watched years ago. So, for your viewing pleasure, a list of some of my favorites.
Hart of Dixie: Zoe Hart (played by Rachel Bilson who played the mother's roommate in HIMYM) is a New York trained doctor who takes a temporary job in small town Alabama and winds up moving to Dixie permanently. Dr. Hart can be gratingly annoying, but the characters are–for the most part–fun to watch. I especially liked the Lavon Hayes character played by Cress Williams.
No real deep topics here. Just some delightful brain candy. Not for young kids though; like most shows, it has an awful lot of unveiled adult banter and plenty of PG-13 scenes. Also, and this is huge to me (speaking of HIMYM), the series finale satisfactorily brings things to a natural end. I like a good ending, don't you?
Switched at Birth: Now this one is extra fun for me because I grew up around children who were deaf. We lived in a town with a school for deaf students and my mother–who basically taught herself ASL–substituted there from time to time.
Switched at Birth features two girls–one fair-skinned and red-headed who is deaf, the other a hearing girl of Italian/Latina descent–who were switched in the hospital at their births and were thereby sent home with the wrong families. Implausible? Yeah. I hear you. But just try to get over that so you can enjoy a great family drama that deals with some tough issues (consent, culture clashes, addiction) and brings awareness to issues pertaining to deafness (communication limitations, prejudice, accessibility to education). I really enjoy this one, but again, lots of adult scenes so view it when the young teens aren't around.
Incidentally, this will be much more pleasant to watch on Netflix than it has been the old-fashioned way–one season at a time. The seasons are brief and the time between them extended. The show was approved for a 5th season in October 2015, but we've yet to see it. Sometime in 2017 they say. We'll see.
Psych. This show makes me laugh so much. The two main characters–20-something men who have been best friends since childhood–open a psychic detective agency although neither is psychic. Similar to Monk in many ways, Psych is funnier, in my opinion (Monk's OCD can be hard for me to watch at times). Shaun (played by James Roday) and Gus (Dule' Hill) frustrate the Santa Barbara police by often solving crimes faster than the officers on the force.
The plots are interesting and the resolutions rarely predictable: a good detective show. But for me, the draw is the relationship between Shaun and Gus. If you've ever had a best friend, or wanted one, you'll enjoy the interactions between the laid-back, unhurried Shaun and intense, hard-working Gus.
This series also features one of the best finales ever. (Caveat: I saw the Psych series finale right after I saw the finale of HIMYM; so Psych's ending could have been mediocre, but since it didn't totally upend the ENTIRE PREVIOUS SEASON, I recall it as a masterpiece of television drama.)
Monk. Another police/detective show, Monk stars Tony Shalhoub as the title character, Adrian Monk. Monk, a distinguished and accomplished police officer, suffers a nervous breakdown after the tragic death of his wife. His OCD and phobic disorders, while apparently present before her death, worsen to the point that Monk becomes completely disabled. However, due to friendships, new and old, he is able to find his way back to reality, using his quirks as gifts in solving crime. The show chronicles his new life as a private investigator with an almost supernatural attention to detail.
Also, I've watched some shows more than once and found, unlike many detective shows, that they hold their interest for subsequent viewings. Shalhoub is brilliant and hilarious; the writers creative and innovative. I actually own the DVD's of this series, and Psych too for that matter, and thus haven't checked Netflix or Hulu for the series. Anyone know if it's online anywhere?
Parenthood. This is perhaps my favorite show of the decade. Parenthood tells the story of the Braverman family. The parents have been married for nearly 50 years and their four children have grown up to varying degrees of social acceptability. Lauren Graham (of Gilmore Girls fame), plays the oldest daughter who is the single parent of two children. Her older brother owns his own business, has a wife and two kids, and a home in the suburbs. Her younger brother (played by one of my faves, Dax Shepherd) is a laid-back musician who has no interest in being a responsible adult. The youngest, a girl, is a big shot lawyer happily married to a hunky contractor with whom she has one child.
Parenthood deals with many real-life issues: mid-life crises, cancer, unplanned pregnancy, aspergers syndrome, generational alcoholism, and more. Sometimes I agreed with the way writers handled the issues, sometimes I didn't; but the story line was always compelling and the acting excellent. (One criticism: I don't like the way the oldest son treats Shepherd's character and felt that shtick went on way too long.)
Like Hart of Dixie and Psych, the series wraps up succinctly–if poignantly–and gives closure to all the different plot lines. Sweet.
Doc Martin. The British television production, Doc Martin, is absolutely hilarious to me. Though some may not think the dry humor and sarcasm are funny, I find myself laughing aloud throughout each episode. Martin Clunes, the actor with the title role, plays a big city surgeon made small village general practitioner. The quirky characters Doc Martin encounters are so authentic that they might just as well be found in small town USA as in this quaint English village.
Doc Martin is mostly G-rated (by me) except for a few adult situations that push it into the PG zone. It's lovely to watch a quality show that is also pretty much devoid of debauchery. In the US, it comes on PBS; I've watched it exclusively on Netflix.
There are others–Bones, The Big Bang Theory, Royal Pains, and more–but this ought to keep you busy for awhile anyway. What about you? What have you binge watched?

Thank You #17 Cameron Brown
I've already written a number of posts about Cameron (some of the most popular on my site actually), but I'm not sure I've ever really let him know how much I appreciate who he is as an individual. Thank you #17*: to Cameron Brown.
Dear Cameron,
Happy Birthday! Can you believe you are 19? And how very cool that Finding Dory came out on your birthday! Pixar & Disney must know what a big movie fan you are. Well, they'd have to; so many of their movies seem to point straight to you!
- Toy Story's theme song, "You've Got a Friend in Me," sounds to me like YOUR theme song! You are so very good at being a friend. You help us slow down when the road is rough ahead. And for your friends? There isn't anything that you wouldn't do. Yep. I know I've got a friend in you, Cameron Brown and I am so grateful!
- In Monster's Inc., Mike Wazowski says, "You and I are friends. There's nothing more important than our friendship." Just curious, Cameron: did you write that line? Because you sure do make your friends a top priority! Thanks buddy!
- And Brave? Oh my goodness. I can't believe how brave you are–especially going over that wall at Caswell! I'm scared of that thing, but not you: you just trust your friends and up you go. Merida could take lessons in bravery from you Cameron! (And maybe I could too!)
- Remember Dug from Up? Now don't go running after any squirrels, but I think you have something in common with Dug. I can just hear you saying something like, "My name is Cameron. I have just met you and I love you." I love the way you love people Cameron!
- One thing's for sure. If life gets you down, you know what you have to do. You "just keep swimming . . . "
You're basically Woody, Buzz, Mike, Sully, Merida, Dug, and Dory wrapped into one Cameron. Maybe we should start to call you Wuzikely Merdugry?
Wait! I thought of something better!
Happy Birthday Mr. Incredible! Thanks for being awesome!
Love, Aileen
In an extended celebration of my 50th birthday on 7-22-2015, I'm writing 50 thank you notes. (Originally I said in 50 weeks. Now I'll just say, over the course of time . . . .) This one is #17. Please click on the tag "50 Thank You Notes" if you would like to read the others.
Margaret the Graduate
Over the years, my youngest daughter has inspired a number of blog posts. Today, her graduation day, I thought I'd unearth some of my favorites. Here's to the class of 2016; here's to our joy-bringer; here's to Margaret Aileen!
- The one about waiting for her.
- The one about her second birthday.
- The one about her first day of Kindergarten.
- The one about the hurricane.
- The one about Giggles.
- The one about the cute and sassy sides.
- The one about the shoes.
- The one about the ice.
- The one about the dress code.
- The one about her.
7 Apps I use Daily
I came relatively late to the smart phone game, preferring, instead, to have a stupid phone that I could boss around a bit. Once I made the switch from flip phone to iphone, though, I went all the way. I love having a gps, a word processor, and a game consol in the palm of my hand. Plus it's also a calendar. And a calculator. AND you can video call on the thing! Makes me feel like Jane Jetson!
I've so adapted to the smartphone life that I have a number of applications (or "apps" as we tech-savvy folk say) I use every day. The teacher in me has to share whenever I learn a new thing, so here you go: 6 apps I use daily.
Clear: This list app is perhaps the simplest application on my phone. Most people will be able to use it instantly. With Clear, I have a packing list, a work to-do list, a home to-do list, a list of what should be in my gym bag, a grocery list, even a prayer list. I make lists for all kinds of things quickly and easily and I love it. Plus, you can change the default color to purple. #winwin
Way of Life: OMG I just got this a few weeks ago and it is fantastic! It's billed as the "ultimate habit builder or breaker" and I believe it! You set daily goals and then check them off as you accomplish them. For example, my goals include flossing, uncluttering, exercising, stretching, and others. The free app allows three goals, but I bought the premium version ($4.99) so I could track more habits. Seriously, my house is straighter, my teeth are cleaner, and I'm in better shape. I can't wait to open it every day to check off my accomplishments.
My Fitness Pal: You could probably find 100 different apps that work well for tracking food choices and I've used a good number of them myself. I like Loseit a lot and also sparkpeople. Weight Watchers has an app too. But for me, for now, My Fitness Pal is the winner. For the past four months or so, I've tracked my meals and snacks using this application. I still use the free version and it suits me just fine. Using My Fitness Pal is such a habit for me, I open it as I'm fixing my breakfast and keep it open all day. Like Way of Life, it is a real habit builder. Use the two together and you're basically a habit super-builder!
Hours Tracker: Because I have a flexible work schedule, I keep track of time and tasks using this application. I like it because it's free and I could use it instantly without any tutorial. It's like having a work log and a time clock all in one. HoursTracker includes lots of features I don't use at all: tracking multiple jobs, billing and pay period notifications, export capabilities, and more. Self-employed or contract worker? This application is a real efficiency boost.
Audible: I love me some Amazon. I've got AmazonPrime and I use it everyday. Until recently, though, I'd not checked out Amazon's affiliate Audible. (I can't even remember now why I decided to sign up for it.) In addition to the many podcasts I enjoy, I've loved listening to full books through Audible. I have downloaded books by authors as varied as Anne Lamott and Ta-Nehesi Coates, Chris Hedges and Timothy Ferriss. Actually, because I have a preference for printed books, I've been known to purchase hard copies of my audible books. (Don't judge!) I enjoy highlighting text and referring back to favorite sections; however, Audible does have the capability to bookmark sections and mark clips. (I mainly listen straight through though and don't really use those features.) Anyway, the app is free, the books are affordable, and when I listen to them (while exercising, driving, or walking the beagle) I feel like I'm multi-tasking. Love it.
KeyRing: Okay this one is the absolute bomb! Do you have a half dozen or more little plastic membership tags on your key ring? Get this app and upload all of those different VIP cards. Then you just open the app, scroll down to the shop your visiting, tap that card, and you're all set. No cards hanging on your key chain, all your discounts ready to use. Woot!
7 Little Words: I stumbled upon this game one day and have played it nearly every day since. What I like about it is that you'd have to work to over-play it: you only get one free puzzle a day. Give me a game like Tetris, Bejeweled, or Peggle and I can easily slip into a stupor of non-productivity. 7 Little Words keeps me from doing that, but gives me a nice little diversion when I need/want a short break. (It takes me about five minutes, more or less, to complete a puzzle.) There are (surprise surprise) seven clues to seven words. You unscramble letter combos to answer the clues. There are in-app purchases–extra puzzles and hints and so on–but the app is free and the daily puzzles are too. If you like word puzzles, give this one a try. I think you'll enjoy it.
So what about you? What apps do you use the most?
Advocate of the Spirit
In Dr. Sheri Adams church history class at Gardner-Webb University Divinity School, I learned, among other things, about Archbishop Oscar Romero. I found his life fascinating and have since been drawn to his legacy. Frequently, I refer to Romero's life and work when preparing sermons. Such was the case for this message, preached at First Baptist Church of Weaverville on May 15, 2016 (Pentecost Year C for those following the Revised Common Lectionary. Note: I substituted the Haggai text for the Old Testament reading). Here's the beginning of the message; it's continued in the attached audio.
A word of explanation: this particular Sunday, when I did the children's sermon, a toddler was particularly interested in the microphone. He added a lot of commentary and a touch of chaos to the worship that morning. I refer to this at the beginning of the audio.
John 14:8-17, (25-27), Haggai 2:3-7
In May 2015, Pope Francis ordered the beatification of Oscar Romero, Archbishop of El Salvador. Pope Francis was affirming what many had said for decades: Oscar Romero's life so closely resembled the life of Christ, that Romero should be declared a Saint.
Romero came from a lower middle class El Salvadorian background. One of eight children, Romero learned a trade early because his father and others of the time believed that academic studies would not lead to profitable employment. Romero excelled academically though and by 13 he was longing to study scripture with the intent of becoming a priest. He completed his studies and was ordained into the priesthood at the age of 24. He rose quickly in the Catholic church and soon became the archbishop, the highest ranking priest in the nation.
At the time, El Salvador was in the midst of a bloody civil war that essentially pitted the powerful elite—who were aligned with the catholic church—against the poor, oppressed majority. Romero, most people believed, would further the cause of the wealthy elite because he had such a position of power; in reality though, he became focused on the concerns of the poor. He spoke out against injustice, taking his message from the pulpit to the streets and to the airways.
He said, among other things,
"The church must suffer for speaking the truth, for pointing out sin, for uprooting sin. No one wants to have a sore spot touched, and therefore a society with so many sores twitches when someone has the courage to touch it and say: "You have to treat that. You have to get rid of that. Believe in Christ. Be converted."
Romero, a true voice for those who had no voice, advocated for the poor literally until his dying breath, as he was assassinated while he was preaching a sermon on living out the message of Christ to serve the least of these among us. Romero, now considered by many to be a saint, was at the very least, a true advocate for the oppressed in his land.
Oscar Romero, guided by the spirit, was the people's advocate, the voice for the voiceless.
The word Advocate comes from a Latin word which means "to call." Our word voice comes from the same Latin root word. Advocate, therefore, could mean "to call" or "to give voice to." . . .

Commencement Reflections
Tomorrow evening, Trellace, my oldest daughter, bedecked in collegiate cap and gown, will walk across the stage, completing her undergraduate degree.
Wait, did I read that right? No. Hold on. Seriously? Has it already been four years?
That can't be because I believe it was yesterday, or the day before, that I wrote about the connection between potty training and college.
As parenting goes, I have always dreaded the day when I uttered these words: This is worse than potty training. Since my kids are pretty close in age, I was potty training at least one of them for three straight years. I'm being self-aware not self-deprecating when I tell you: I'm not good at teaching toddlers the tricks of the toilet. I'm not. (And please don't leave me any tips here because really, I've heard them all and besides, they pretty well have it down by now.) Read more here.
Not long before that, I wrote about when Trellace was a baby and people suffered from the misunderstanding that I considered having an infant a burden. They had a compulsion to comfort me.
"It'll get better," the stranger said, punctuating his insightful comment with that know-it-all belly laugh that indicated he knew exactly zilch, "in about 18 years!" His laugh crescendoed, then faded into the distance as he walked away shaking his head, still snickering at his own joke. Read more here.
On the contrary, it always felt to me as if time was slipping away; that my babies were growing up too fast. What a blessing it was for me to learn the difference between chronos time and kairos time.
. . . "Where has the time gone? I don't know, but I think I'm looking for it in the wrong zone. In Greek, there are two words for time. There's Chronos—time that is measured, ya know, chronologically. And then there is Kairos—time that is measured by experiences. Chronos dissolves into seconds, days, years. Kairos, though . . . Kairos remains. (Read more here.)
In chronos time, it's been four years. In kairos? The blink of an eye. But however you measure it, it's time for Trellace's university commencement. I wrote this post back in 2012, just before she left for college. It's déjà vu all over again.Z
These days, in my world of parenting, I'm experiencing some serious déjà vu. See, when Trellace was about to start kindergarten (ya know, yesterday), good-hearted folk, attempting to be encouraging, offered familiar platitudes. Things like, "Oh she's ready!" or "She'll do great," or "She'll be fine! Don't worry." Now she's going away to college, and those tired expressions have been roused for the occasion. (Read more here.)
Sunrise, sunset . . . I don't remember growing older. When did they? (Fiddler on the Roof)

There are at least two trainers who think the correct move with Azeri is to run in the Breeders' Cup Classic – Powered by Dodge (gr. I) rather than the Breeders' Cup Distaff – Presented by Nextel (gr. I). One is D. Wayne Lukas, who trains Azeri. The other is Patrick Biancone.Speaking Wednesday morning at Lone Star Park, Biancone said people "may be surprised she is in the Classic but they shouldn't be surprised when she wins" the $4 million centerpiece of the Oct. 30 World Thoroughbred Championships."She is the best, and if Wayne runs her in the Classic, you can be assured she is in top form," Biancone said. "You're talking about one of the greatest trainers in history."Because he is a native of France who first trained there, Biancone has seen fillies run against colts many times. But it is a much more common occurrence in Europe than the U.S."They certainly are more open to it (running fillies and mares against colts) in Europe. Part of that is European racing is on turf."Biancone trained Triptych, a multiple champion who ran against colts. "She won nine group I races but I think again, the turf is the big difference from Triptych to a decision like they have made with Azeri. It is a different time and different circumstances."Lukas, of course, knows a thing or two about running fillies against colts. He has done so successfully with such runners as Winning Colors, Serena's Song and Lady's Secret."All of the great fillies and mares I've had, we've always run them against colts. But these are the very very best fillies and mares," Lukas said.Azeri, by Jade Hunter, ran against colts once already this year, finishing eighth in the one-turn Met Mile (gr. I) at Belmont. She also has run the Classic distance of 1 1/4-mile once, when second to Storm Flag Flying in the Personal Ensign (gr. I) at Saratoga.Lukas has won a record 17 Breeders' Cup races, the next highest being the eight captured by Shug McGaughey. Runners trained by Lukas have won $18,608,400 in Breeders' Cup races, more than $10 million more than second-place Bill Mott.Besides Azeri, who races for Michael Paulson in the name of the Allen Paulson Living Trust, Lukas has one other Breeders' Cup starter this year, Consolidator for Bob and Beverly Lewis in the Bessemer Trust Breeders' Cup Juvenile (gr. I).Biancone has two runners this year: Sense of Style in the Juvenile Fillies (gr. I) and Magistretti in the John Deere Turf (gr. I).

Yay! Warning this year! (I found out about the last one after it had started and when I was already occupied).
Unlike then though, there's no films I urgently need to see; the only one I haven't already seen is Redline and it isn't one I've wanted to see with any urgency. Last year they had Summer Wars (which I now have on BD) and Ponyo (which I am still yet to see).
Still, it is probably worth trying to book Friday off for the shorts, and Saturday if I am rota'd in although it would be expensive to marathon them all and I'd also be losing pay (since I'm working overtime up till Christmas and my holiday pay only covers a regular shift).
Glad it's not on the Sunday this year too.

Hospice of Mcowell county
Posted in the Marion Forum
1 - 14 of 14 Comments Last updated Feb 8, 2014
#1 Jul 12, 2013
How does the community and Hospice staff feel about her performance as Executive Director of Hospice of McDowell County ? Is She helping it grow and develop or is she running it into the ground?
#2 Jan 5, 2014
We tried to get then to come talk to us about our mom. My sister went by and by chance spoked to Ms. Cosgrove. A week later after knowing coming we called Rutherford. They came the next day. Still haven't heard from McDowell. Guess they don't need or care about patients. Just our experience. But I can say it probably was the best. Our mom and us couldn't be happier with Hospice of Rutherford they have been wonderful.
United States
#3 Jan 5, 2014
I have not heard one positive comment about Kit Cosgrove. Every time I hear her name its someone talking about how difficult she is to work with. Eventually when you hear it over and over then it starts being more credible. Look at turn over rate too. I also recently was visiting my aunt in an assisted living facility and hospice sent a nurse for someone else there and there is no way she was physically able to help that patient should anything happen. She was up in years and hunched over and could hardly walk herself. I thought if she were seeing a patient in a home and the patient started to fall there was no way this nurse could assist. A lot of things just don't add up for McDowell's Hospice over the past few years. Nothing against older folks working but they should be physically able to do so. Otherwise you are cheating your patients.
#4 Jan 8, 2014
We are supporting hospice of rutherford now. We also have not heard any good comments regarding the current administration
United States
#5 Jan 14, 2014
You are all wrong. There is no agency better than hospice of mcdowell. They do more for patients than anyone else could. Kit has been a god send.
#6 Jan 16, 2014
Talk to any of Hospice of McDowell's patients and they will tell you how wonderful they are! Our family decided on Hospice of McDowell to care for our mother and we cannot be more pleased. Everyone we have spoken with who have had dealings with Hospice of McDowell have only offered praise. That "hunched over nurse" as stated above is very caring, experienced, and knowledgeable as she has assisted in caring for our family member. She does more than catch someone if they are falling.
#7 Jan 17, 2014
Lol. Only because they don't know how a good hospice runs. Like rutherford.
#8 Jan 18, 2014
Who is over the Hospice Thrift Store? That place is absolutely a joke. You can buy the stuff new for the prices they want. If you want to see how a real one is run go to the one in Forest City. All pocket books are the same price. All clothes are the same price. All jackets are the same price. I was shocked to see a jacket with $75.00 on it. All this stuff is suppose to be donated. It is not suppose to be like a consignment store. While I'm at it, The Salvation Army is just as bad. They operate like a consignment store to. Who the hell marks their purses in ink? All volunteers and management at these two places need to drive on down to the Hospice Thrift Store in Forest City and see why they are so successful and have so much business. Quit taking donated items and trying to make a fortune, it's all donated. Pocketbook...Hospice in Forest City $2.00. Pocketbook.....Hospice and Salvation Army in Marion......For what you can buy them new and marked in ink.....I am just a customer not affiliated with any of these places, but I promise you if you would spend the extra gas money to drive to Forest City you would still save money and never want to step foot back into the ones in Marion again.
#9 Jan 18, 2014
What is the location in Forest City? I need some baking pans.
#10 Jan 18, 2014
Some people need to find some happy pills and od on them; do what you want, choose whichever hospice you would like. We have been well pleased with our service, could not ask for anything better. I am simply glad there is such a program in existence to help others. (There is a thrift store in Marion run by Hospice of Rutherford County as well). Have a nice day.
#11 Jan 18, 2014
If you think it is run like the one in Rutherford County you are totally wrong! The one in Rutherford County is in Forest City. Go check it out sometime. The Marion one could not come close to being compared to it. I bet you there's no $75.00 jackets/coats there! LOL
Helping people by jacking up the price on donated items! Are they doing consignments there to?
Happy pills....I'm happy to let people know there is a great affordable place to get used/donated items at a very affordable price! Now you have a nice day!
#12 Jan 18, 2014
The Hospice thrift store beside of Nara's is HOSPICE OF RUTHERFORD COUNTY....read the smaller print on the sign.
#13 Jan 20, 2014
I agree the thrift store on side street in town is unreal! The smell of cig smoke will choke you. They all smoke inside the store! This is unreal to me!! When u work for hospice which is people dying mostly from cancer! I WILL NEVER step in there again! Ridiculous
#14 Feb 8, 2014
So who is on the current Hospice Board of Directors?
How are they so blind to the problems with the current administration?

ComEd has restored power to 99 percent of the more than 420,000 customers affected by Monday's fast-moving storms, which included multiple tornadoes and strong winds reaching 120 miles per hour.
These storms brought approximately 80,000 lightning strikes, and caused severe damage to electrical infrastructure, knocking down multiple poles and power lines.
Nearly 900 ComEd and contractor crews have been working around the clock to safely and efficiently restore service to customers. In addition, approximately 400 crews from ten states continue to provide restoration assistance until all customers are restored. Customers who remain without power are in some of the hardest hit areas. Restoration efforts in these locations require the most extensive physical repair work in order to restore power safely. Crews will continue to work until power is restored to all customers.
"Our number one priority is restoring power quickly and safely to customers in the remaining impacted areas," said Terence R. Donnelly, executive vice president and chief operating officer for ComEd. "We realize that outages disrupt customers' lives and businesses. We appreciate our customers' patience as we make repairs to our system following this damaging storm."
ComEd urges customers to contact the utility immediately if they are experiencing a power outage. Customers can text OUT to 26633 (COMED) to report their outage and receive restoration information. ComEd also offers a mobile app for iPhone and Android® smart phones that gives customers the ability to report power outages and manage their accounts. In addition, customers can report outages through the website at ComEd.com or on ComEd's Facebook page at Facebook.com/ComEd or by calling 1-800 EDISON1 (1-800-334-7661). Spanish-speaking customers should call 1-800-95-LUCES (1-800-955-8237).
Public safety is paramount during storms and ComEd encourages the public to remember to take the following precautions:
- If you encounter a downed power line, immediately call ComEd at 1-800-EDISON1 (1-800-334-7661) or access our website at ComEd.com and report the location. Spanish-speaking customers should call 1-800-95-LUCES (1-800-955-8237). Never approach a downed power line. Always assume a power line is energized and extremely dangerous
- Check on elderly and other sensitive family members and neighbors to ensure their safety and make alternate arrangements, as it may be some time before their power is restored.
Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) is a unit of Chicago-based Exelon Corporation (NYSE: EXC), the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately 6.6 million customers. ComEd provides service to approximately 3.8 million customers across northern Illinois, or 70 percent of the state's population.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Three people involved in a cocaine ring were handed federal prison sentences on Monday morning.
The three got the benefit of new reduced prison terms that are set to go into effect in November. However, Judge Sandy Mattice is going ahead and allowing the "two-level" reductions.
Eric Crockett got 70 months, Brandon Harris 60 months and Jackie Sawyer 37 months.
Police said those in the ring would pool their money and buy $36,000 kilos of cocaine from a supplier in Atlanta.
Agents were able to record phone calls of many of the people involved.
They said they did not get Sawyer on the calls, but found a large amount of cocaine at his home on Talledega Avenue hidden in ceramic pots.
Sawyer sped away when officers confronted him, but he was later apprehended.
Crockett sent a letter to Judge Mattice calling himself a hypocrite, saying he had often preached those he coached not to get involved in drugs. He called himself a "model citizen" who made a big mistake.

Morphing Into Primal Lyrics
Artist: In Flames
Album: Whoracle
Fireworks and alchemy
Genes spliced and triggered
into the future
and her organic cave
Seismorgasmic omnipotence
scenes of magma in my eyes
Eruption stones my system
I owe this to the animal inside
and the stiffness that blocks out the daylight
Morphing into primal
I'll cover every particle
from there to Andromeda
not forgetting a single location
from the throat of Ibis
to the co-ordinate of Matterhorn
My shot is genesis and catharsis
Penetratonaut in a cosmology of lust
Suck this subterrenean creature out
and show it proudly to the house of heaven
With one slight wave of my hand
star dissolves
Dissolve my brain
Block my lungs
I'll die from fever tomorrow
when locked in sych a perfected "now"

WASHINGTON (Hollywood Reporter) - Continuing her father's legacy of fighting for musicians, Nancy Sinatra will urge lawmakers Wednesday to approve legislation giving performers a royalty for songs aired on traditional radio.
In 1988, Frank Sinatra pushed for legislation instituting a performance royalty, and his daughter is expected to do the same almost two decades later during a congressional hearing on the Fair Performance Right on Radio legislation, according to the MusicFirst Coalition.
In a letter to artists and musicians dated December 12, 1988, Frank Sinatra wrote: "We are of the opinion that legislation has not been enacted in part because recording artists have not been aware of the problem while others with vested interests have lobbied heavily for the defeat of such legislation. We believe that with a unified effort from fellow recording artists, we may be able to pass such legislation."
The MusicFirst coalition is comprised of the record labels, musicians and other music industry organizations. It is pushing for legislation sponsored by Reps. Howard Berman, D-Calif., and Darrell Issa, R-Calif.
A number of musical performers plan to make their voices heard Wednesday as well. Rock guitarist Dave Navarro, hip-hop groups Sugarhill Gang and Whodini, and pop singer Kristine W are among the artists in D.C. supporting the bill.
The Copyright Alliance, a broad-based copyright industry group, also is planning a push for the IP-PRO bill that sets up a "copyright czar" and is scheduled for a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing June 17.

Pilot who landed in Vernal with 180 pounds of pot sentenced to probation
Geoff Liesik, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — An Idaho pilot caught at a Utah airport with 180 pounds of marijuana in his small plane has been sentenced to probation and ordered to pay a fine.
Randall Patrick Watson, of Meridian, Idaho, was facing a maximum possible sentence of 20 years in federal prison and a $1 million fine Monday when he stood before U.S. District Judge David Nuffer. Instead, Nuffer put Watson on probation for 50 months and imposed a $25,000 fine, according to court records.
Watson, 57, pleaded guilty in May to one count of conspiracy to distribute marijuana. In court documents filed as part of his plea, Watson admitted that he transported marijuana from a farm in California to distribution points in Utah and other states.
On Nov. 12, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents tipped off authorities in Uintah County about a "suspicious aircraft" that was expected to land at Vernal Regional Airport, court records show.
A sheriff's deputy made contact with Watson when he landed, and a police K-9 was called in. The dog indicated there were drugs in the plane, court records state. Uintah Basin Narcotics Strike Force agents later found about 180 pounds of marijuana in four duffel bags stowed inside Watson's Cessna 182E Skylane.
As part of his plea agreement with federal prosecutors, Watson forfeited his interest in the plane. Prosecutors also agreed to recommend a sentence at the lower end of the federal guidelines based on Watson's continued willingness to accept responsibility for his actions.

Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development Commissioner Burns Phillips announced that BASF was chosen to receive the Governor's Award of Excellence for Workplace Safety and Health. The company has two locations in Chattanooga, one on Polymer Dr. and the other on Lost Mound Dr. Both are being recognized with awards.
"BASF has demonstrated strong commitment to maintaining a safe and healthy workplace," said Mr. Phillips, who presented the award today at the closing session of the Tennessee Safety and Health Congress in Nashville.
The Governor's Award of Excellence honors Tennessee employers and employees who meet a required number of hours without workplace injuries serious enough to cause an employee to miss a day of work or restrict normal job activities. The number of hours required is based on the size of the company.
BASF employs 130 people in Chattanooga. They produce polymer dispersions that are commonly used in adhesives, carpet backing, foams, paper coatings, and asphalt modifiers. Both sites qualified for the Governor's Award by each working 300,000 hours without a lost-time or restricted duty workplace injury or illness. The injury-free record dates back to January 2011.
"BASF regards protection of health, safety, and the environment as our most important responsibility," said Rob Gagliano, site director for BASF in Chattanooga. "We care about our employees and we care about our communities. We are committed to operating facilities in a safe, secure, and environmentally responsible fashion."
For more information on the Governor's Safety Award and other TOSHA award programs contact TOSHA's Nashville office at (800) 249-8510.

[Intro: Sia]
I won't give up, I won't give up
I won't give up, I won't give up
[Verse 1: Sia]
And another one bites the dust
Oh, why can I not conquer love?
And I might have thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it, I wanted it bad
But there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
Yeah, let's be clear, I'll trust no one
Maddie Ziegler (from the "Chandelier" video) and Shia LaBeouf star in the clip for "Elastic Heart," directed by Daniel Askill and choreographed by Ryan Heffington.
Additional vocals by The Weeknd appear on the album version, but not the video version, which was released as the second single from 1000 Forms of Fear.
The video was met with what CNN described as "outrage." Apparently, the sight of a 28 year-old man and a 12 year-old girl wearing flesh-colored outfits and grappling in a giant bird cage made people uncomfortable, despite the lack of any graphic violence or sexual acts in the video. Barbara Ellen defended the rights of Sia and her collaborators to make provocative art in the Guardian:
Is this where we are now: society flinching from the sight of a man and a girl performing together in any way that hasn't been entirely emotionally neutered?
Sia was braced for the video's impact, as she made clear through Twitter, while also trying to make clear the intent of the casting:
Although many have interpreted the video as a depiction of a tumultuous relationship between a girl and her father, Sia and LaBeouf, who came up with the concept for the video, describe it as dueling self-states. The cage acts as a symbol for the human skull, in which the two states do battle.
"Elastic Heart" appears on both The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Original Motion Picture Soundtrack but Sia re-recorded this song as a solo project for her album 1000 Forms of Fear.
