Underground Experience Feature 5/26/016
This months feature is a International DJ with special performance flair…. lets watch the spinning of the 1's and 2's with Deejayirie
Mistajay: What is the story and conception behind your DJ name?
Deejayirie: My actual name is Irie. It's a Brazilian Indian name and it means white star. A lot of people think it's a chosen name referring to the Jamaican term Irie (which means something like being in peace with your current start of being). Although I don't use the name for that reason, I feel it does suit me well, since I'm very much in peace with who I am and what I do. Some (mostly Americans) give me a hard time because they think I stole the name from Miami heat's DJ Irie. I even get emails saying I'm wack and a biter for stealing his name. Those people fail to realize that I've been using this name since 1993. There was no internet back then, so it was nearly impossible to check if the name was already taken. Besides that it's my real name, so if anyone should change their name it should be DJ Irie. But I don't sweat it. I did add Deejay in front, instead of DJ, since most social media names were already taken by the gentleman out of Miami.
Mistajay: What area are you reppin? What is the hip hop/music scene like there?
Deejayirie: I'm born in São Paulo, Brazil. But I grew up in Holland, Europe. For the past decade I've been living in the city of Groningen (G-town, Ghosttown, G-City Titty Committee where the girls are always pretty). The scene out here is good. Lately we've been having a lot of Funk, Breaks and Groove parties. There's a strong vinyl collecting scene over here. In terms of Hip Hop we got a few artists that's been blowing up nationally and internationally (like
Dope DOD). We have a strong beat society here. Way more great producers than MC's.
Mistajay: What are your influences of your music? And what inspires you?
Deejayirie: I grew up listening to my Mom's music. Since she grew up in the UK we listened to mostly The Beatles, Stones, 60's music overall. I've always been fascinated by the live album of Supertramp. That album is one of the reason's I started to play piano. I've been a fan of Hip Hop since the early 90's. Public Enemy, Ice-T, NWA. Later I became a huge fan of Gang Starr, Tim Dog, KRS One. All east coast. In my block nobody listened to westcoast stuff. We used to be very strict about that. I can be inspired by a lot of things. Sometimes it's a DJ set I see live or online. When I hear a fresh song I get inspired to create music. But movies or documentaries also could inspire me. Last couple of years I've been really inspired by the LA beat scene. Artists like Mono/Poly, Mr Carmack, G Jones. It fascinates me the way they can create such huge sounds with synths and still keep it funky. It's like next level Hip Hop beats to me.
Mistajay: You describe your style as 'eclectic', mashing and mixing hip hop, reggae, funk,
soul, rock, breaks and bass what brought you to this evolution of sounds?
Deejayirie: When I started to do DJ Battles I more or less neglected the whole world (including music) and just studied DJ Battle VHS and DVD's. I had a bunch of battle records and all I did was practice and watch other DJ's. After my battle career I slowly started to get back into music, making my first mixtapes. First it was strictly Hip- Hop. Later on I started to figure out where all the samples came from and I began collecting and digging for breaks. I'm not a deep crate digger like some people out there. I do think it's dope to have the essential breaks like Funky Drummer, Big Beat, Funky president. When Serato came out I jumped right into it. It gave me the
opportunity to mix all styles and genres. Could be really old stuff, brand new innovative beats, and foreign music. There are really no boundaries now. If it's funky and it gets the crowd going, I will play it.
Mistajay: You Released Sample Chain Found Vol.1 – 2, The Other Side Of Valentine, Hectic Eclectic, Vol.1 - 2 - 3 & Reggae & Dubstep Mix What is your best project recorded to date and why?
Deejayirie: I think both Hectic Eclectic 1 and Sample Chain Found 1. For Hectic Eclectic I used all vinyl. The mix was made with mp3's but then I decided it would be cool to go dig for all the records and redo the mix. So my wife and me went to San Francisco and LA to visit all the beautiful record shops there and I managed to get all the records I wanted. Sample Chain Found was an idea I had for a few years before I started recording it. In my mind it was growing into enormous proportions and it seemed like so much work to put it together. And it really was a lot of work. So I'm extra happy about that one, because I found the courage and energy to pull it off.
Mistajay: You shared the stage opening for and performing with, acts like Mixmaster Mike, Gaslamp Killer, KRS One, Jeru Da Damaja, Black Milk, Q-Bert, DJ Fly and Odyssee. If you could share the stage with any other 3 artists or bands who are still around and touring, who would they be and why?
Deejayirie: I would love to create a show with DJ Woody (UK). He's by far the most innovative DJ in the industry and I think I could learn a lot from working with him. Would love to share the stage with Jurassic 5. They got the best Hip Hop show out there. And I think I would have a blast performing with the Dap Kings. They really got that dirty raw 70's funk sound.
Mistajay: Performing you are involved in producing musical and visual content for Ish' theatre shows. You successfully adopted video scratching in his mix around 2008 Please explain the effect on the audience and What is the feeling you got pulling everything together?
Deejayirie: I get plenty of feedback from the audience after shows. A lot of them tell me they have never seen anything like it before, and I think that's great! One other thing people tell me is they get nostalgic because of the footage I use. It might bring them back great memories. What they also tell me is that they feel it's easier to understand DJ'ing (and turntablism) because of the direct translation and correlation between audio and video.
Mistajay: A lot of artists come into the game with a lot of ambition but don't spend time learning the business side. How important to you is learning about publishing and royalties?
Deejayirie: I guess you have to start off with ambition. As an artist you just want to create and I get that. I've been like that for many years myself. But the last couple of years I've been way more involved in the business side. Getting to network, getting your online profile right. But I still keep it 100%. If I don't get along with you, or I don't support your product/brand I'm not doing business with you, no matter what.I never released any official music so the publishing and royalties story doesn't really apply to my work.
Mistajay: Where do you see the hip hop/music going in 2016? How do you see yourself fitting into that?
Deejayirie: The, what I call, pop Hip Hop is getting pretty bad. Wack beats, terrible rhymes, stupid topics. I feel bad for the kids nowadays. But on the positive side we got artists like Kendrick Lamar, Joey Bada$$ and Action Bronson
that are killing it. I'm not sure where it's gonna go, but overall the signs are good. I see a lot of youngster doing research and wanting to hear some classic Hip Hop. They're re-inventing the 90's sound, putting their own twist to it and that's great. What I specially love about Hip Hop in 2016 is that it's global. It open up tours for doing shows all around the world.
Mistajay: What are your future plans?
Deejayirie: Last couple of years I've been taking my productions way more serious than before. Really taking my time to figure out how to create certain styles of music. I'm taking in consideration the fact that producers are getting DJ gigs based on their productions skills and not their DJ skills. So the plan is to release my own music. It might bean album, singles or maybe some remixes. Once I have enough music I want to create an audio-visual show
thatgoes with it. There are plans of doing several international tours, but I don't want to jinx it, so I leave it at that.
Mistajay: Any last thoughts?
Deejayirie: Live it short, don't waist your time on bullshit.
Mistajay: Where can fans follow you and get your music?
Deejayirie: You can follow go to my website www.deejayirie.com. There you will find all the links to social media. You can get all my mixtapes and radiomixes on Soundcloud (https://soundcloud.com/deejay-irie), Mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/deejay-irie/ and iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/nl/podcast/deejayirie/

text: To the editor - I would like to let your city know of our appreciation of Northern State University athletics. They often come to Winona, Minn., to play Winona State University, as they are both in the NSIC conference. They often stay in our hotels (Express Suites, Riverport Inn, Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites, Holiday Inn Express). I can't express enough to your city and school how proud you should be of all who are involved with the athletic programs. Your athletic staff, student athletes and fans are a first-class outfit. What sparks this letter is the recent visits to Winona for men's basketball conference and regional tournaments. Coach Don Meyer, his staff and players are something of which you should all be proud. Besides being a great team, they conduct themselves in a positive way both on and off the court. They are truly a pleasure to have as guests in Winona and our hotels. They represent your city and university very well. There is a rivalry between these teams but it is a friendly rivalry and one of mutual respect. I only hope that our fans treat our visitors with nothing but respect. I look forward to future meetings and am planning to attend future NSU-WSU athletic events in Aberdeen in the future. Dave Jensen Winona, Minn.

Oak Park writer pens novel using African themes, traditions
Fantasy born of Africa's legacy
|Share on Facebook
|Share on Twitter
By Terry Dean
The Lord of the Rings. Harry Potter. Chronicles of Narnia.
The Ancient Lands?
Never heard it? Probably because it's the first in a series of fantasy novels recently published by Oak Park resident Jason McCammon. Never heard of him?
That doesn't surprise the 36-year-old Roselle native, who, prior to becoming an author, worked mostly on Hollywood movies and TV shows as a cameraman and electrical technician. The first book in his Ancient Lands series, Warrior's Quest: Search for the Ifa Scepter, is a unique offering in the fantasy genre that uses themes and traditions from Africa.
Most fantasy novels, he said, derive from European, Asian or Greek themes. Many are geared toward adults. But McCammon's Ancient Lands series is geared toward children though the message is universal.
"It's about a prince wanting to become a king, but the premise deals with understanding that there are more important things in life than being king," McCammon said last week. "It's like that idea some women grew up with about meeting your Prince Charming who'll marry you and live happily ever after. But if you spend your time waiting for that, there will be other wonderful [people] you can miss out on."
The fantasy genre appealed to McCammon, who grew up in the Chicago area and moved to Oak Park in January. He noticed very few "mainstream" fantasy books with African-based characters or themes. He was inspired to write the book in 2008, while watching Barack Obama run for president.
"There would be no book if Obama hadn't decided to run," McCammon said. "I really identified with him. I thought, if this guy had the audacity to run for office, at least I can write a book."
Wanting to branch out in his career, he looked at breaking into screenwriting. Instead of taking any formal classes, he just decided to start writing, looking up screenplays online and following that pattern. Ancient Lands actually began as a screenplay. All told, he has spent about a year and a half on the novel and screenplay.
McCammon ended up self-publishing the book, which is currently available online at sites like Amazon and at bookstores, including Oak Park's Book Table and Afri-Ware.
Finding an agent or publisher was tough, he said, mainly because they receive plenty of manuscripts but also because his book is a new take on fantasy.
"I wrote one agent and explained what the book was about, and he sent me a reply saying, 'Good luck.' I've gotten a lot of one-word replies."
McCammon did a lot of research before beginning Ancient Lands, which will likely include four additional books.
Among the many African traditions he explored was the religion of the Yoruba people of Southeast Nigeria. It's based on a supreme God and lesser deities or spirits.
The science fiction genre over the years, he noted, has occasionally borrowed from African traditions. Marvel Comics in the 1990s created a series of characters based on the Yoruba religion — McCammon pointed to the warrior God Shango, a divinity of Thunder, as a possible inspiration for the Marvel character Thor.
In McCammon's Warrior's Quest, Bomani, a teenage warrior with impressive skills, sets out to retrieve the Ifa Scepter, a "precious" artifact that must be located in order to save his father's kingdom.
McCammon, who lived in New York for nearly a decade before moving to Oak Park in January, has been promoting it at book signings and schools. Most recently, he talked with students at schools on Chicago's South Side but hopes to come to Oak Park and the West Side area. He enjoyed talking to kids the most.
"The kids seem to really like it, but I have had black kids who have said they've never seen anything like it before. Some have said they've gone to bookstores to look for similar fantasy books but could never find any," McCammon said.
He's already writing the second book in the series, Tribe of Leopards. Another book planned for release this year is an illustrated children's book, based on characters from Warrior's Quest. In writing the fantasy novel, McCammon said he wanted to give African-American readers in particular something other than "hood and sex books."
He also wants to inspire young people to become writers.
"I describe it as a domino effect. What you do causes others to do a similar thing," he said. "The goal is to have other kids write a book, maybe even a better book."

which see. while it was vacant, as they were still levied, Master Martin, one of the clerks of the lord the pope, whom many persons, in witty phrase, used to call Master Mastiff, on account of his rapacity, laid his hands, for some unknown relation of the pope. And on the day of Saint Denis, Fulk Basset, dean of York, was consecrated bishop of London. About the same time, Adam, bishop of Cuver, died at Wardon, of which place he had been formerly abbot. About the same time also, John, bishop of Hereford, died ; who, having been deprived of his bishopric, had by the command of the pope sojourned at Saint Alban's for about twenty years. Likewise, about the same time, the bishop of Lincoln went to the court of Rome, for the sake of terminating the dispute which existed between him and his canons, in the presence of the lord the pope ; and in like manner there went to oppose him, the dean of Lincoln and some canons of that church. Also the same year, on the Monday next before the feast of AU Saints', some persons came to the synod of the bishop of Rochester, professing a new sect of religion, and assuming the name of Cross Bearers, from a cross which each man bore tied to his staff.
About the same time, the pope delivered himself from the imperial guards, and removed to the city of Asti ; and soon afterwards, he withdrew in haste, and by night, to Lyons ; and from that time forth, he entertained the idea of assembling a general council, chiefly with a view of deposing the emperor, and precipitating him from the summit of the imperial authority with disgrace, while in the lower parts of Gaul. But the king of France, when he found that the lord the pope was approaching his dominions, knowing that no good could arise from his arrival to either king or kingdom, convoked his nobles, and consulted them as to what should be done in these circumstances ; and when they were assembled, lo ! a petition from the pope was presented to the king and his nobles, requesting that he might be allowed to proceed to the city ot Rheims, which was at that time deprived of its prelate. And when the French had heard this request with amazement, they immediately made a firm reply that they would by no means permit any such thing. Therefore, the king of France wrote an answer to the lord the pope, couched in temperate language, that his nobles were by no means willing to consent that he should come into France. For they were afraid lest he should reward his entertainers like a mouse in a sack, or a

Silencing the Guns: How Chicago can keep guns off the streets

Editor's note: This is the third in an occasional series of opinion essays, produced in cooperation with the University of Chicago Crime Lab, exploring solutions to the scourge of gun violence in Chicago. The Crime Lab released a report this month about the historic surge in gun violence in Chicago last year, providing insight into what happened and why. Silencing the Guns continues the conversation.
A report released last month by the University of Chicago Crime Lab offers valuable new information on Chicago's gun violence crisis. The first step to forging solutions is to amass the data and facts to understand the nature, scope and contributing causes of the problem, and this data is critical for philanthropists, as it is for policy makers, law enforcement officials, citizens, and the media.
There is much to learn from the Crime Lab's report. For example, many people likely do not know that almost 20 percent of Chicago's homicide victims are children and teens; that almost half of gun violence victims are not affiliated with a gang; and just 6 percent of shootings last year resulted in arrest.
But one figure stands out: 90 percent of Chicago's homicides in 2016 were committed with guns. This is much higher than the national average of 72 percent of homicides committed with firearms. Other gun crimes also increased in Chicago last year, much more so than non-gun crime.
Chicago is awash in guns. CPD recovered more than 8,000 guns in 2016.
Easy access to guns is a root cause of gun violence. Where there are more guns, there are more homicides, as well as suicides and accidental gun deaths. For this reason alone, in the U.S. we are 25 times more likely to be shot and killed than our peers in the developed world. The risk is not equally distributed. In cities and states with more guns, the death rate is higher. In Chicago, we are seven times more likely to be shot and killed than New York City residents, and nearly four times more likely than those living in Los Angeles.
New York and LA have stemmed the flow of illegal guns. In Chicago, we seem to have given up trying to solve this problem, and we are paying the price.
Chicago's gun problem has multiple sources, and demands multiple solutions. Forty percent of the crime guns recovered in Chicago were first sold by gun stores in Illinois, and many were recovered within a short time of their original purchase. That's a strong indicator of a straw purchase or gun trafficking, when a gun is legally purchased and quickly sold on the street. A disproportionate number of these guns are sold by three stores in suburban Cook County.
Research from Johns Hopkins University finds that Illinois could cut intrastate gun trafficking 64 percent by putting in place strong gun dealer regulations and oversight, including licensing and regular inspections. New York, California, and 23 other states and the District of Columbia regulate gun stores; in Illinois gun dealers are not subject to accountability from the state.
Traffickers who bring guns into Chicago for sale to persons who are legally prohibited from owning them must also be held to account. Sixty percent of our crime guns originate in states with weaker gun laws, especially Indiana and Wisconsin. Private gun sales at gun shows in those states are not subject to background checks, and are a ready source of crime guns. Research is clear that background check1s reduce gun deaths.
Federal prosecution of gun cases has been shown to deter gun trafficking, but few of these cases are brought. One reason is that federal laws on gun trafficking are weak. In fact, there is no federal statute that directly criminalizes gun trafficking. This forces prosecutors to look to "paperwork violations," which are hard to prove and carry modest penalties. Even so, federal prosecutors in Chicago lag behind other large cities in prosecuting gun crimes. According to an analysis by the Sun-Times, between 2011-2016 the U.S. Attorney in Chicago brought fewer weapons cases than in Detroit, New York, Baltimore and Milwaukee.
Everyone has a role to play. Police must rebuild their relationship with the communities they serve by improving accountability and transparency, which will enable them to solve more gun crimes. Prosecutors must make gun trafficking a priority. Community members must be engaged as partners in developing solutions. Philanthropy can do its part by supporting research and evidence-based policies and programs that will empower policy makers, law enforcement and community members to stop the violence.

National Park: DARTMOOR
National Grid Reference: SX 58441 67948
Reasons for Designation
Dartmoor is the largest expanse of open moorland in southern Britain and,
because of exceptional conditions of preservation, it is also one of the most
complete examples of an upland relict landscape in the whole country. The
great wealth and diversity of archaeological remains provides direct evidence
for human exploitation of the Moor from the early prehistoric period onwards.
The well-preserved and often visible relationship between settlement sites,
major land boundaries, trackways, ceremonial and funerary monuments as well as
later industrial remains, gives significant insights into successive changes
in the pattern of land use through time.
Elaborate complexes of fields and field boundaries are some of the major features of the Dartmoor landscape. The reaves are part of an extensive system of prehistoric land division introduced during the Bronze Age, around 1700BC. They consist of simple linear stone banks used to mark out discrete territories, some of which are tens of kilometres in extent. The systems are defined by parallel, contour and watershed reaves, dividing the lower land from the grazing zones of the higher moor and defining the watersheds of adjacent river systems. Occupation sites and funerary or ceremonial monuments are often incorporated in, or associated with, reave complexes. Their longevity and their relationship with other monument types provides important information on the diversity of social organisation, land divisions and farming practices amongst prehistoric communities. They show considerable longevity as a monument type, sometimes surviving as fossilised examples in medieval field plans. They are an important element in the existing landscape and, as such, a substantial proportion of surviving examples are considered worthy of protection.
Eylesbarrow watershed reave is a major element in the reave system on south-west Dartmoor.
Eylesbarrow watershed reave can be traced from Cadworthy Wood to Eylesbarrow,
a distance of some 7.5km, separating the watershed of the Plym from that of
the Meavy. This part of the reave runs up the slope of Eylesbarrow from the
stream north of Scout Hut at its south-western end to streamworkings which
truncate its north-eastern end, a total distance of some 1.05km. The reave
consists of a bank of earth and stone up to 3m in width and 0.5m in height and
was the terminal reave for Roughtor parallel reave and another parallel reave.
Although it abuts these two reaves, for purposes of clarity and because they
are different reave forms, these three reaves have been defined as separate

Cover Letters With A Salary Requirement or Salary History
Sometimes job classified advertisements will request you disclose your salary history or salary requirement when submitting your resume. If an employer requests that you include a salary requirement or salary history, do so in your cover letter, unless the ad specifically instructed you to include it on your resume or somewhere else. Insert a paragraph on your cover letter just before your closing paragraph that discusses your salary history or salary requirement.
Salary History: A salary history is just that -- a history of your ending salaries at every job you have ever worked (or the jobs you've held the past 10 or 15 years). When a prospective employer requests a salary history, he is attempting to put himself in a better bargaining position when negotiating your salary and to weed out those who earn too much or too little.
Salary Requirement: A salary requirement is the salary you expect to be offered excluding benefits, bonuses and such. In order to negotiate effectively, you should visit www.salary.com which offers information on what people earn in all regions of the country in hundreds of professions. A sample cover letter with a salary history is below.
You should try to avoid disclosing salary in your cover letter if at all possible. Unfortunately, by doing so, you risk being overlooked for certain positions. Of course, if your salary history / requirement is in line with what the prospective employer offers, then there is no reason to avoid this topic as your salary is compatible with their compensation package.
Career experts are divided as to whether or not you should apply for a position without submitting a salary history or salary requirement when one has been requested. Some experts say that applicants who are really qualified can get away with ignoring the request; others say that your resume will be trashed if you do not send a salary history / requirement. A recent survey of HR professionals found that the overwhelming majority of them would not dismiss a candidate for failure to comply with the request for salary information.
Of course, you should never offer a salary history or state a salary requirement unless it is requested or you are networking with a search firm or personal contact. Otherwise, try to avoid the topic until the job interview or after you have been offered the job.
Cover Letters With A Salary Requirement or Salary History
Examples (Insert this paragraph just before your last paragraph on your cov
er letter):
Sample 1: As you requested, I am disclosing the minimum annual salary I would require to accept employment with your firm. This amount is $____ per month excluding benefits. This amount is based on thorough research I conducted on the Internet, particularly at Salary.com, and takes into consideration my lengthy employment history in the ______ field and the cost of living in the San Francisco area.
Sample 2: Your advertisement requested that I disclose my salary history. My beginning and ending salaries are provided below and exclude the value of health insurance and other benefits:
Dates of Employment
Beginning Salary
Ending Salary
Acme Industries
01/2004 to 01/2014
XYZ Corporation
02/1998 to 12/2003
NNN Company
02/1996 to 01/1998
(Note that it is not necessary to disclose a complete salary history. Providing your salary history for the last 10 to 15 years is sufficient.)
Sample 3: As to my salary requirement, I am completely open to negotiation on the subject and will be prepared to discuss this with you in more detail if I am given the opportunity to interview for this position.

Spring Break 2010 is not for another ten months. So please stop sending me those weekly Facebook invitations to sign up for special group trip packages to Acapulco. I don't care how many wristbands you can get me for exclusive "VIP" club access, and I really don't care about how I can score a free trip by becoming a campus rep.
The thing that bothers me most about these Acapulco trips is how they change those who go on them. In addition to returning from Mexico with George Hamilton-like tans, spring-breakers often come back with a smug heir of accomplishment. When I ask peers how their trips were, I often hear the common assertion, "It was amazing…but I don't know if you could handle it." It's like their week of fist-pumping at Palladium equates with conquering some great natural force like Kilimanjaro.
All of you past and future Acapulco champions… I know your dreams are to fly over a rainbow so high. But mine are for you to just shut the fuck up.

School Library Journal Review
Adult/High School-A well-crafted, clearly organized guide for beginning and experienced genealogists. The book is divided into five sections from "Beginning the Quest" to "Going Global" and includes an extensive international resource directory. The introduction discusses some of the pitfalls and myths of genealogical research. Hull takes readers from the simple to the complex. Each section is logically divided and includes "problem" and "solution" and "dos" and "don'ts" sidebars. Photos of documents and ancestors complement the text; captions explain how they might be used for further research. A listing of genealogy software, supplies, the National Genealogical Society's recommended publishing standards for sharing information one has gathered in print and on the Internet, and a lengthy index are included, but there is no glossary of genealogical terms. This title could be used for history assignments on the culture of various decades, famous people, and the Holocaust.-Ellen Bell, Amador Valley High School, Pleasanton, CA (c) Copyright 2010.

Library Journal Review
Writer and historian Hull's (Scotland) guide, published in Britain last year, offers an introduction to family history and the numerous online and hard-copy informational sources available to genealogical researchers. Focusing mainly on family history in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Australia, she divides the book into five parts-"Beginning the Quest," "Filling in the Gaps," "Understanding the Fine Print," "Special Circumstances," and "Going Global"-then subdivides those parts into such topics as passenger lists, libraries, census records, cemeteries, and hiring a professional. For several research situations, Hull includes checklist dos and don'ts (e.g., when researching an ancestor's religious affiliation, do check tombstone engravings for religious information; don't assume the ancestor shared the surviving family's religious affiliation) and offers advice on preparation (e.g., before visiting a records repository, researchers should familiarize themselves with the facility's rules and procedures). Appearing throughout the book are "Problem and Solution" scenarios and copious illustrations highlighting clues for which one should look to answer questions like, "How do I find my female ancestor's maiden name?" A selected resources directory, reading list, and index round out the book. Bottom Line Similar in approach to Anthony Adolph's Collins Complete Tracing Your Family History (HarperColins, 2005), Hull's book aptly covers research basics and is suited for beginning genealogists. Recommended for public libraries.-Elaine M. Kuhn, Allen Cty. P.L., Ft. Wayne, ID (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

families resources for death and loss
To be human is to know loss, and indeed, the more fully human we are, the more loss we will know and the deeper we will feel the losses; for the more we love and care, the more we have to lose. All the things to which we become attached are transient; they pass; they decay; they die. And when we lose someone or something we love, our response is grief. Grief is difficult to handle because it is not one emotion but many--sadness, depression, bewilderment, despair, helplessness, loneliness, emptiness, meaninglessness, and probably guilt. All of these are common to grief. We experience them in varying degrees of intensity according to the importance of our loss, and we experience them in no particular order or pattern.
