"There's a stigma with having heart disease," Eve Walker said. "It's important to talk about it — what you don't know can kill you.
The facts are shocking: heart disease and stroke cause 1 in 3 deaths among women each year, killing approximately one woman every 80 seconds. All the more reason to increase awareness of the symptoms — as the American Heart Association's National Wear Red Day campaign is doing.
Eve Walker knows this all too well. Had she recognized that her generalized pain and tiredness are common signs of heart disease, and obtained medical attention, perhaps she would not have had a heart attack — at age 28.
It's not common, but it happened to Eve, a Kaiser Permanente Southern California consultant for the Medi-Cal Strategy State Programs department. Like many other women in their twenties, Eve was active and hardworking. She loved modern dancing and had two young sons. When she began feeling tired after minor exertions, such as walking up and down stairs, or even going to work, she didn't think she required medical help. She attempted to get a boost from coffee and candy, and took aspirin to relieve her pain.
One day, Eve felt that telltale tingling travel up the left side of her body. A neighbor took her to the hospital, where testing revealed she'd suffered a heart attack. She was later diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a thickening of the heart muscle. Doctors prescribed medication and advised her to limit certain activities.
Being so young, for years, Eve was too afraid to accept how her life would change, "I didn't want to be the poster child for heart disease." Today, Eve Walker is an inspiration to the lives she is touching as a national volunteer spokesperson for the American Heart Association, using her spare time urging women to be open about their health and to recognize the signs of heart disease and stroke.
"After learning everything the AHA does to promote education and awareness, I realized I WAS a poster child," she continues, "and that I had a responsibility as a survivor to help people to best of my ability."
Now, Eve relishes her role representing Go Red for Women, the AHA's national movement to end heart disease and stroke in women. With National Wear Red day on February 3, she inspired all of us to think about our own heart health. She made appearances on heart.org, WebMD, KTLA — and in the Walnut Center administrative offices lobby in Pasadena where visitors were able chat with her and check their online Personal Action Plans, available for Kaiser Permanente employees.
Armed with the knowledge that 80 percent of deaths due to heart attacks are preventable with education and awareness, Eve has set out to make people aware of their risks simply by knowing the symptoms of heart disease, and their related family history.
"There's a stigma with having any kind of heart or health issue," she said. "It's important to talk about it because when it comes to your health, what you don't know can kill you. If you think something is wrong, get it checked out and don't ignore the symptoms."
According to Elizabeth D. Dueñas, MD, FAAFP, Department of Family Medicine, Kaiser Permanente South Bay Medical Center and Hypertension Physician Champion, "A staggering 1 in 3 deaths among women are caused by heart disease and stroke each year — more than all cancers combined. The good news is that most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented and controlled with education, lifestyle changes and appropriate medication. Understanding the signs of heart disease in women — and how they differ from the symptoms that men may experience — is a potentially life-saving step that we can all take."
To help spread this understanding, Eve travels near and far to share her story on how women can survive and thrive after a heart attack. As a volunteer and "passion speaker" for the American Heart Association since 2013, she visits community health events and does local media, winning a "You're the Cure" award for her work.
"My life was spared 16 years ago because I have a purpose, and that's to bring awareness to heart disease, the No. 1 killer that strikes more women than all cancers combined."
Even with her many accomplishments, Eve is most proud of the lives she touches simply by raising awareness of the disease.
"Having compassion about our members' care in Kaiser Permanente is synonymous with my role with the American Heart Association" she said. "If I could be proud of anything, it would be that a woman heard my story, went to the doctor and lived because she got checked out in time."

Rita Coburn Whack is determined and persistent. It took five years of work to coproduce the first documentary on Maya Angelou. Rita along with her co-producer Bob Hercules produced a beautiful tribute to Dr. Angelou. Rita is an award-winning writer, producer and director for television, magazines, series, news, talk shows. She is a former newspaper reporter for the Citizens Newspaper. She has won awards for her radio production at NPR. And she was the producer of Angelou's radio program for Oprah Winfrey Radio. She started the documentary when Angelou was alive, interviewing her in her living room home. She and Bob promised that they would finish the film, and they did, after her death Together they co-produced and co-directed the first film ever of a phenomenal woman . You can see this is a labor of devotion and love. . Coburn Whack is the owner of RCW Media Productions, and lives in a Chicago south suburbs.
You were a producer of the Maya Angelou Radio program at Oprah Winfrey Studios. What was the program about?
Maya Angelou believed that "we are more alike than unalike" and that was the backbone of the program. We had a reoccurring show formatted with everyday Americans talking about their pride in the country and the work that they did, so from veterans; male, female and all races, people from different parts of culture such as a native American who's daughter wanted to be identified as First Nation we had guests who talked about their culture. Another theme was Ask Dr. Angelou and people called in for encouragement more than advise with children, career and personal issues, to these callers she offered a different way of viewing their current circumstance. We also interviewed celebrities, musicians and politicians from Chris Rock, Mary J. Blige, Common, Phyllis Diller, Secretary Clinton, President Clinton, Bishop Desmond Tutu, Winnie Mandela, Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf many others and of course Oprah Winfrey.
How did you become interested in media?
I consider myself a griot in the ancient tradition of the traveling West African storytellers that weaved music and poetry into their stories. In our modern day a griot is a novelist, a filmmaker, a person who takes the tales of the culture to a broader and new audience. I discovered this with my beginnings of being an avid reader, then writer, lover of words both prose and poetry and being a frustrated history lover. There was something missing from the history I read, there was not enough about me, my family, my people. Then I discovered television and radio and it all came together.
What was it like to work with Maya Angelou?
Maya Angelou was every black woman I had known or wanted to know and she was generous with her knowledge. My mother is 93, so I was used to the wisdom of the older black woman. Add my aunts and my community and I was at home. From Oprah Winfrey's generosity and my position as Maya Angelou's producer for our Oprah Radio Show, I would spend 3-4 days a month with her at her home in Winston Salem so I was steeped in the southern part of her life and ways. I would also spend time with her in Harlem so the urban culture as well as on the road. In these various settings friends, family and celebrities would stop by or call. It was like having a wonderful aunt who knew everyone, cooked your favorite dishes and was always teaching you the lessons of life. So I worked for her before the documentary.
How did you prepare her for an interview?
Very well or there would be a, let's say short, interesting, one-sided discussion. I would read books, highlight areas or sometimes we would read together. I would also use official bio's, articles etc… and prepare a small booklet on the topic. In the case of the Ask Maya Angelou or Maya Angelou's America segments, I would pre-interview the guests and highlight areas I thought might lead to the desired conversation. I would write openings with the full knowledge that they would be rewritten much better. She expected me to be professional and as she would say, "bring it."
What was the impetus of the Maya Angelou documentary?
As I heard President Clinton call or Michelle Obama call and request an introduction at an event before she became the First Lady, Martina McBride ask her to open for her Grand Ole Opry performance (Dr. Angelou loved country music), I was amazed at her range of interest and relationships. Then Sonya Sanchez and Dorothy Height would come and stay a few days, Ambassador Andrew Young, Professor Nikki Giovanni or Chris Rock or Common would drop by. I re-read her books, then add to that hearing her recount her life in my headphones as I produced her radio show. I realized I was listening to history from a Black woman's point of view. The missing point of view. I realized a documentary would honor her life, her take on history and pull together many of the obscure moments into one place and be appealing across generations.
Maya Angelou was every black woman I had known or wanted to know and she was generous with her knowledge.
What is the most significant take away of this film, for you?
The first line. "You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated, in fact it may be necessary for you to encounter defeats so that you know who you are?" The take away for me is life, especially lived to its fullest is going to get messy, but I can handle it. I am deeply encouraged in my faith and in my ability to live life well. The film is an encouragement to me.
What lesson(s) did you learn in doing this film?
That this industry is a wonderful and challenging place to be. We need more African Americans telling our stories. We will have to fight to tell these stories. We will have to kick doors open, take names and stay true to ourselves. You need to fight for every scene and make it pitch to you. If you chase the story hard enough, it will start to chase you.
Who should see this film?
This is a film to span generations so after about Sophomore year in high-school or earlier with some teachable moments, this is world history and circumnavigates the globe, gender, race and challenges you to grow. One woman at the Chicago Black Harvest Film Festival at the Siskel Center stopped me outside and said, "I just grew in there." So anyone who wants to grow in a deeper understanding of this culture should see the film.
Who was Maya Angelou?
A woman in the right place at the right time who came into her own, documenting the journey with faith, works and having it documented by the current media continually. Her ability to transcend the Jim Crow, lynching, Ku Klux Klan South, navigate her talent as an artist with song, dance and writing, then love, lose and get back up and do it again is measured against a culture that throws continuous punches which land with some imbalance on African Americans and women. Maya Angelou was also a woman of faith who practiced forgiveness of others as well as herself. She was a teacher who's words and works continue to teach us.
What's next for Rita Coburn Whack?
I am considering several documentaries now and want to continue to do culturally significant work. I also have a few shorts I would like to direct. Mostly, I want to live in a place of work that deals with growth, legacy and a story that chases me down.

The White House announced Wednesday a proposal to create a Civilian Property Realignment Board to expedite the disposal of an estimated 14,000 excess federal buildings, an initiative that could save $15 billion over three years. The board would be made up of public and private-sector experts, and its recommendations would be presented to Congress in a single package to be voted on in an up-or-down manner. All properties would be swiftly disposed of or consolidated, said Jeffrey Zients, the federal chief performance officer and the deputy director for management at the Office of Management and Budget.
Congress will need to approve the proposal before the White House can establish the realignment board. Beyond the 14,000 buildings already identified as excess, the government has 55,000 underutilized properties that also could be sold or consolidated, Zients said.
The realignment board is needed to sidestep a number of obstacles that slow the ability of the government to shed surplus property, primarily bureaucratic rules for disposing of real estate, the lack of federal funding for moving and transaction costs, and opposition from local officials and lawmakers, he said. The administration plans to release detailed information on these excess properties next month.
For more details on recent efforts to sell unneeded federal buildings, read the Washington Post story.

Generous storage. Can specify which folders to back up. Loads quickly. Simply sharing features. Ability to view files on screen. Uploads multiple photos or videos at once. Compression controls.
No search. No in-app editing. Figuring out photo management can be tricky.
Bottom Line
SugarSync (for iPhone) delivers on its promise to keep you connected to your most important documents and files no matter where you are.
File synchronization changed my life; if it hasn't changed yours yet, you really ought to give SugarSync (free for 5GB) a try. It works with all major platforms: Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, and Symbian. A Linux client is in beta. The SugarSync iPhone app (free to download), which is the focus of the review here, is relatively similar to SugarSync's Android app, and a necessary piece of the syncing equation. Mobile access is essential.
Similar Products
SugarSync's best known competitor is Dropbox (4 stars, free for 2GB), an excellent tool that I personally still use in tandem with SugarSync. Both Dropbox and SugarSync are PCMag's overall Editors' Choice picks for file-syncing services, and which you choose may largely be a matter of preference.
SugarSync's iPhone app is free to download, but you do need a SugarSync account to use it. The first 5GB of any account are free, but you can upgrade to 30GB for $49.99 per year, 60GB for $99.99 per year, or 100GB for $149.99 per year (monthly payments are also available, see the pricing page).
Download and install the app, then log into your SugarSync account.

iPhone Apps Product Guide
The graphical opening page is the first indication that SugarSync's iPhone app is easy to use. All the icons and names you've given to your synced devices appear. See the slideshow for an example. Tap on any of the icons, and SugarSync will pull up a list of the folders and files that devices houses.
Say you're away from the office but need to quickly reference a spreadsheet that you (wisely) set to sync with SugarSync. From your iPhone, you can find that file and view it right on the screen. You can't edit it on the spot, however; you'll need another app for that. I've had no problems opening and zooming in on Excel files, even ones with multiple pages, using the app.
If someone else had needed that file, I could just as easily have selected "Share" in SugarSync and sent it to the appropriate person via email, with the link that let them download it. If you don't want to send the file from the default email address on your iPhone, you can choose instead to copy the link the clipboard, letting you send it however you like.
Other ways you can interact with a file include renaming it, copying it, and moving it to a different location within SugarSync. Some actions, namely share, sync, copy, move, and delete, can be performed in bulk.
SugarSync provides decent security, encrypting your data while at rest and while in transmission, and the iPhone app gives you the ability to put on one more measure: a four-digit PIN. For anyone using SugarSync on data that could be considered sensitive or personal data, this additional layer of protection definitely helps to make you feel more secure, and keep out malfeasants.
Photo syncing on SugarSync for iPhone is a little less intuitive than the rest of the app, and it can become very complicated quickly, especially if you use other photo-syncing services, such as iCloud . I had a hard time figuring out where photos lived after landing on the Photos area. It's just not clear where or how they're stored.
A section for Recent Documents proves more useful. It shows documents that SugarSync has identified as being recently changed and synced. For day-to-day work files, this area is great for quick access to files you're likely to need the most.
One missing feature is a search tool. The ability to search for files that you've synced—even just by file name or folder name—would quickly mitigate some of the other minor annoyances and shortcomings in the app.
SugarSync Mobile
While I still adore Dropbox and will emphasize that it's still worthy of our Editors' Choice award, SugarSync does a few things just slightly better and deserves more praise. SugarSync also gives you more space with a free account (5GB compared to Dropbox's 2GB) and unlimited bonus space for referrals. The SugarSync iPhone app does a suitable job of keeping you connecting to all your files. It will deserve more use, though, once it restructures its photos area and provides a search bar. The only reason Dropbox might be your preferred app is if you like the Dropbox way of thinking. With Dropbox, you put everything you want synced into a "Dropbox" folder. To sync any other way is considered advanced. In SugarSync, you choose to sync existing or new folders and files. But seeing as you can get both for free, there's no real reason you can't have both and perhaps use them for different kinds of data.

Taghizadeh, Aref (1998) Electrochemical and photoelectrochemical oxidation of selected organic compounds on TiO2 electrodes and the effect of adsorption on the oxidation potentials. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
Text (application/pdf)2MB
A commercially available TiO$\sb2$ powder (Degussa P-25) has been used to prepare thin particulate films on optically transparent SnO$\sb2$ conducting glass electrodes. The oxidation potentials of Resorcinol (RSRCL), 4-Chlororesorcinol (4-CR), 4,6-Dichlororesorcinol (4,6-DCR), Catechol (CC), 3,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHBA), and 1,2,4-benzenetriol (1,2,4-THB) in 0.5M KCl were measured. The effect of adsorption on the oxidation potentials of the above-mentioned compounds on TiO$\sb2$ electrodes, were examined by cyclic voltammetry under various conditions. The results show different oxidation potentials vs. SCE for adsorbed versus non-adsorbed species. The scan rate dependencies of the peak currents indicate, that the lower oxidation potential may be assigned to adsorbed reactants while the one at higher potential corresponds to diffusion-controlled oxidation of material from solution. This was also confirmed by the dependence of peak current on the concentration for selected compounds. Illumination causes no significant change in the measured oxidation potentials. However, photocurrent was observed under illumination, indicating the photoactivity of TiO$\sb2.$ These studies tend to indicate that associating the oxidation of such compounds to a single oxidation potential does not adequately describe the situation. Depending on the type of working electrode used, an important distinction is to be made between adsorbed and dissolved species.

How to Grow Mustardcomments (9) January 23rd, 2009
Mustard is an ancient plant that's full of appeal for contemporary gardeners. The plants are easy to grow and produce seed in as few as 60 days. The greens are edible, the flowers attractive, and if the seeds are allowed to mature on the plant, they will self-sow and still provide plenty for mustard making. Is making your own mustard worth the effort? Considering that a small jar of good Dijon can cost up to $6, it is indeed. About a dollar's worth of seed will produce a pantry shelf full of fine and fancy mustards and more greens than you can shake a salad spinner at.
|Mustard is a tiny seed with a lot of spunk. It will grow just about anywhere, is rarely bothered by pests, and is prolific to boot.
If you've ever traveled to California's wine country in early spring, you may have seen the vineyards awash in yellow flowers. Those are mustard plants, the winemaker's friend. Many vineyard owners plant mustard deliberately as a cover crop or let field mustard (Brassica kaber) run rampant. When plowed back into the soil, the plants act as a green manure and release nitrogen. Mustard also repels some insects (the seeds are that hot) and attracts syrphid flies, beneficial predators that attack vine-chewing insects.
Mustard seed contains no cholesterol, only trace amounts of vegetable fat, and about 25 percent protein. Leaf mustard contains calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and Vitamin B. The calories are negligible in most basic prepared mustards, so you can feel free to indulge.
Today, mustard is second in demand to pepper among spices in the United States. Historical records indicate the use of mustard as far back as 4,000 b.c.e., and it's believed prehistoric man chewed mustard seeds with his meat (probably to disguise decay). From about 2,000 b.c.e. on, ancient civilizations used it as an oil, a spice, and a medicinal plant. It was introduced into western and northern Europe in the early Middle Ages.
Over the years, mustard has been imbued with curative powers. It's been called an appetite stimulant, a digestive aid, and a decongestant. Because mustard increases blood circulation, it's often used in plaster form to treat inflammation. Folklore has it you can even sprinkle mustard powder in your socks to prevent frostbite.
All mustards come from the Cruciferae, a family that includes broccoli and cabbage. Brassica nigra, B. alba, and B. juncea produce black, white (really a yellowish-tan), and brown seeds, respectively. The black seeds of B. nigra are used for moderately spicy mustards. French cooks use them to make Dijon-style mustard—it can be called true Dijon mustard only if it is certified to come from that city, which has the exclusive right to produce it. In West Indian dishes, black seeds are fried until they pop. The black variety produces less-desirable greens, and is really intended to be grown for seed.
White seeds—B. alba—are the primary ingredient in traditional ball-park mustard, and it's the most common and the mildest of the three. The white seeds also have the strongest preserving power and are therefore the kitchen gardener's choice for pickles, relishes, and chutneys. White mustards are not typically grown for their greens.
Brown mustard, the hottest of all, is used for curries and Chinese hot mustards, and frequently for Dijon-type mustards. If you're growing mustard for the greens, choose B. juncea or an Oriental variety like 'Giant Red'.

Sony Mobile Communications
This week Google released the source code for Android 5.0; Lollipop – and to celebrate that we have the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) version up and running on Xperia Z1, Xperia Z2 ….and Xperia Z3
We know there's probably a few of you itching to get AOSP 5.0 running on unlocked Xperia devices, so we're working to provide updated versions of the necessary binary files as soon as we can – head on over to Developer World for the latest.
Now's probably a good a time as any to tell you about a new, exclusive initiative we're running in Sweden with "3"… 3Beta – a pilot programme giving select Sony fans the chance to test drive Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact devices running early versions of our Android 5.0; Lollipop release.
The premise is pretty simple – gather as much early feedback as humanly possible in order to make the Sony User Experience on Android Lollipop as good as it possibly can be, before commercial rollout next year.
We'll be monitoring interest, reaction and the success s of this project with a view to rolling out similar initiatives in other markets next year.
We're really excited to bring Android 5.0; Lollipop to the entire Xperia Z Series* from the beginning of 2015 – it's the latest version of Android packed with new features including as a more responsive UI, better control over device security, new ways to control notifications, improved performance and a lot more. The full change / feature log if you're interested (we're sure you are) is available at the Android developers site.

Maybe it's the change of weather. Maybe it's a new stability in my medication regime. But I've been enjoying a return of my motivation levels, and with it, a new level of contentment.
Many people who have Parkinson's have trouble initiating movement. Sometimes this masquerades as depression or apathy. But it is the depletion of dopamine, the defining characteristic of PD, that I think is at the root of the near-total drainage of motivation.
I've reduced my total intake of l-dopa in all forms by well over 80 percent since the surgery last November. I had to reduce the level again a couple of weeks ago when a change of diet suddenly cleared out my digestive system. That made my body far more efficient at taking up this key drug. The result was a return of the unwanted muscle movement in my right arm (the arm that is controlled by the stimulator).
The dyskinesia was so pronounced that I thought I had torn a rotator cuff muscle, and undone all of the work treating the tennis elbow that had developed in the forearm. Thankfully, the pain eased as my l-dopa levels dropped another notch. I'm now back to a balance between the two sides: a barely-acceptable level of tremor in my left arm and a barely-acceptable level of dyskinesia in the right arm.
Do I still consider the surgery a success? Absolutely. The elimination of tremor on the right side is a blessing that I am thankful for every day. And to be here after only three programming sessions is incredible. I suppose the only thing I would have done differently, and it's not a regret, is to have had the right side installed at the same time. It's only a matter of time until we do the right side. How long til that happens is now largely dependent on how long I can tolerate this balance between the two poles.
Now, it's time to get outdoors and enjoy the unusually warm and sunny weather!

The K2 platform offers multiple design tools. As such it is important to understand the differences between them.
Learn more about design tool considerations
It is important to understand certain foundational design principles on which to base K2 development such as rules, data field usage and exception handling.
Learn more about best practices
The K2 Studio and K2 for Visual Studio workflow designers provide many ways for tasks to be assigned to people. In the simplest sense a workflow task requires the use of Client Event and the configuration of that Activity's Destination Rule within K2. This is an important element of workflow design as it can provide for dynamic task assignments as well as lower the level of effort required to maintain a workflow. This document will highlight common scenarios in an effort to assist with workflow design.
Learn more about destination rules
K2 provides robust workflow design tooling allowing for designers to configure a number of different types of business processes. For example it is common for a workflow to have to handle sequential execution, parallel execution, rework, looping, and a dynamic number of approvals. Understanding how to implement these within K2 is valuable to any K2 workflow designer.
Learn more about workflow design patterns
The K2 Studio and K2 for Visual Studio workflow designers provide for a flexible design experience in order to model complex, real world business processes. Within a running K2 process, direction of workflow execution is determined by logic that resides within Line Rules.
This document will discuss how to leverage a Line Rules in a number of common ways to affect workflow direction.
Learn more about line rules
When a workflow needs to wait for an event to occur within another system, for example if a workflow needs to wait for a record to change within a database, the first thought of many developers is to build some polling mechanism into the K2 workflow. There are more efficient ways of achieving the desired functionality. Asynchronous Server events are a much more scalable approach.
Learn more about external system call backs
It is important that resources tasked with implementing a K2 solution for the first time have the ability to properly learn the K2 platform. K2 offers multiple options around technical enablement.
It is normal in all software development to have a common approach to naming the various artifacts developed within a solution. K2 is no different and it is highly recommended that a naming convention be established and followed for K2 artifacts such as SmartForms, SmartObjects, Workflows and the Category System.
Learn about the governance rules that are encouraged with regards to the K2 product database within SQL Server instance for K2 blackpearl.
This document provides a number of best practices with regards to designing and constructing K2 smartforms solutions.
The K2 platform provides the ability to interact with K2 applications on mobile devices. The K2 mobility story falls into two categories: Mobile resident applications and Mobile friendly forms development. This section covers these two areas in more detail and highlight content that can provide more specific technical details.
By default all K2 design time and runtime elements display in English. If there is a need to design solutions that accommodate other languages then it is important to plan appropriately. This involves understanding what language support the K2 platform offers as well as which areas must be accommodated within solution design.

Court Finds That Plan Fails to Meet Plan Exemption
A group of current and former employees of Advocate Health Care Network filed a class action against their employer's pension plan. They alleged that the religiously affiliated hospital has improperly claimed that its pension plan is exempt from the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) as a church plan. They stated that the church plan exemption was intended to apply only to plans that were started or administered by churches themselves. Because Advocate claimed its pension plan was a church plan, the Advocate Pension Plan did not comply with many of the requirements to protect plan participants under ERISA. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit granted Advocate's request for an immediate appeal from the district court's decision. The district court had found that Advocate's pension plan did not meet the church plan exemption requirements.
In its decision, the Seventh Circuit held that the clear language of ERISA requires that a church plan must actually be established by a church. Moreover, policy considerations counseled against a ruling in favor of the health care company. In particular, the court was concerned about the number of hospitals that treated their pension plans as church plans, allowed them to become underfunded, and then ran into financial troubles that left their employees out of luck. AARP's brief, which was joined by the National Employment Lawyers Association, explained to the court all of the protections that employees would lose — including proper funding of benefits and loss of the insurance provided by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation — if the court were to find that ERISA's church plan exemption applies.
What's At Stake
This case is important to people over the age of 50, in particular, because if their benefits are reduced due to a pension plan's inadequate funding and there is no PBGC protection, these employees will lose their retirement benefits and will not have enough time to make up the shortfall. The case immediately affects the approximately 33,000 participants in Advocate's pension plan.
Case Status
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit held that a health care company could not treat its pension plan as a church plan exempt from ERISA's requirements because a church did not initially establish the plan. Stapleton v. Advocate Health Care Network, 2016 U.S. App. LEXIS 4908 (7th Cir. 2016).

Donegal Mountain Rescue - reaching the most remote places
by Matt Britton
Over the last number of weeks the Arctic conditions have placed a major strain on many organisations who battle almost on a daily basis to ensure that essential services are provided to people who find themselves vulnerable in many situations.
There are many unsung heroes throughout the county that many of us take for granted among them the council workers who struggle to keep the roads open and the emergency services who often put their own lives in danger to ensure somebody else's safety.
For many years the Donegal Mountain Rescue Team (DMRT) have been rescuing and assisting people who have strayed into trouble in wild and remote areas where in the past the only hope of assistance or rescue would have rested with the local guard or whatever hill farmers could be rounded up at short notice.
Today the DMRT has developed its skills and experience and the number of incidents that it deals with has increased considerably, Since the present "Big Chill" began in late November, this voluntary organisation has answered over 30 call outs compared to a total of 50 for the entire year in 2009.
In light of the present Arctic conditions the Donegal Democrat spoke to Catriona Strain, an active member of the DMRT, and PRO of the organisation.
Catriona said, "It is now 25 years since the first steps were taken to establish our team and we know have 27 members who live across the county and essentially are on call 24/7.
"We have five response vehicles positioned strategically to ensure quick, effective responses to incidents. We have seen this organisation move forward from humble beginnings and are now looking forward to shaping our future in maintaining and enhancing an effective rescue service in the county."
Strain said that many members of the public had a mistaken view of the DMRT and associated them purely with people stranded up hills or on the sides of mountains.
"It is much more than that," she said, "on an almost daily basis we face a variety of challenges which I must confess makes the job much more interesting.
"The last month with the existing weather conditions has seen us working around the clock which leaves very little time for socialising and Christmas parties for our members - they are on call 24/7 and often have to leave social functions and family get-togethers to go to someone's assistance. It is nearly a full time job.
"We work very closely with the HSE in all sorts of roles - collecting prescriptions, delivering drugs and vital medication - our staff are even trained in the delivery of infants even though we have not been asked to do so this year to date.
"We have also actually had to bring medical staff - nurses and even doctors to some patients who live in remote places and have been snowed-in. As a result of some of these visits we have had to bring some of these patients to either the A&E departments or nursing homes as they would not be able to survive alone in such a harsh climate.
"Donegal is an extremely large county and many of the areas that we frequent are very sparsely populated - some people might only meet and talk with their neighbours when they get into the towns. There are a lot of isolated and lonely people out there and as a community we should look out for them and try to pay them a visit.
"Essentially our vehicles are equipped to reach places that others like ambulances or Garda cars may not be able to reach."
Catriona added, "Many people do not like to ask for help - especially the older generation. They are a proud generation and cling to their independence. They do not want to feel that they are putting people out of their way but I would appeal to them, their family and neighbours to contact us no matter how small they might feel the problem is.
"It is a totally voluntary organisation with only limited public funding we raise most of the €65K in fund raising events - we can do with all the help we get.
"On a final note I would ask people that no matter how small they feel their problem may be to contact us if they feel they may be in danger. Some people might think that they might be creating an unnecessary fuss - my response to this is "Let us be the judges - we are here to help when others may not be able to."

The Athletics arena enthralled sports fans on Day 12 of 35th National games. After Dutee Chand proved her worth on Day 11, many new records were set in Athletics events on Day 12. Haryana's Rajinder Singh broke the National record in javelin throw and Kerala's Renjith Maheshwary set a new National Games record in Triple jump.
Preeja Sreedharan Signs Off In Style
Kerala's Preeja Sreedharan, who is all set to retire from Athletics after the National games, won Silver in the 10,000 m event. She clocked in a time of 34:58.85sec while fellow Keralite OP Jaisha won gold with a new meet record of 33:08.55sec. The bronze went to Maharashtra's Swati Gadhave.
Renjith Maheshwary also set up a new meet record when he cleared a distance of 16.66m in the Triple Jump. Arpinder Singh (16.41m) and Rakesh Babu (16.29m) won Silver and Bronze respectively in the event.

As the tagline states, this is a party game for you and your stupid friends. It was made up by two brothers in their 20s who shamelessly call out their friends and get called out.
You basically get a 250 cards, each with some accusation like "Wakes up with half a burrito in bed","Sings but shouldn't", "Is a little bitch", and more such delightful descriptions of habits.
The first player declares themselves the judge and reads a card aloud, and each player states who among them deserves the accusation – we'll stick with "Is a little bitch" at the moment, since it's my favorite.
Then everyone argues their point.
The first one to get 7 cards loses. And as it is mentioned in the instructions, there are no winners..only losers.
At the end of the day, besides the self deprecating humor that the game brings, it'll also most likely bring life to the party and cause some honest engagement between friends.

PHOENIX — An investigation from the Phoenix Fire Department concludes that a strong storm was a factor in sparking a massive fire at a Safeway last Wednesday.
By Thursday morning, the fire had destroyed the Phoenix grocery store.
According to Phoenix fire spokesman Capt. Rob McDade, a microburst dumped a large amount of rain in the area prior to the fire.
McDade said fire investigators believe the grocery store's flat roof may have collected the water from the microburst and from previous rain this week.
Phoenix fire spokesman Capt. Larry Subervi said there was a "bunch of debris" left on the store's roof by the previous day's storm, which clogged up the gutters designed to drain water off the roof.
The heavy weight of that much water caused a partial roof collapse in the back of the store, which broke a gas line and damaged the main electrical box, Phoenix fire said.
The combination of events "might have," McDade said, started the massive fire.
"It's a bunch of crazy things that lined up to cause the fine," Subervi said.
The fire department's investigation concluded the roof collapse resulted in significant damage to the building's electrical system and natural gas system. The fire has been classified as "undetermined," fire officials said.
RAW: Sky 12 over fire at a north Phoenix Safeway
McDade said over 75 firefighters battled the flames. Firefighters were dispatched to the grocery store near Northern and 35th Avenues just before 6 p.m.
When a 12 News photographer arrived at the scene, it was clearly more than just a roof collapse. The streets in the area were flooded, showing just how hard the storm hit the neighborhood.
TIME-LAPSE: The sign of a north Phoenix Safeway melts and collapses due to huge fire
People inside the Safeway said the store shook before flames appeared.
Phoenix fire said everyone got out of the store, and there were no injuries.
"Based on the work of the Safeway employees and citizens listening when they said exit, everyone got out safely," Subervi said.
Nearby residents were advised to stay inside their homes while the store is burning and smoke fills the Phoenix sky.

The fire garnered a third-alarm response from the Phoenix Fire Department.
Subveri said at one point, as conditions changed quickly, firefighters fighting the fire inside the store had to "literally" leave their equipment inside and run out to battle the flames defensively.
Wednesday was the third consecutive day of damaging storms in the Phoenix area.
Subveri said the department is sending a fire watch every hour, and will continue to do so for the next 24 hours at least, to make sure there aren't any areas that will reignite.
"If you think of something on a small scale like a campfire, even after you put it out, if you put your hand in the middle of those logs it's going to be very hot," Subveri said. "This is a couple thousand square feet of that."
He said the humidity in the air could lead to some of that trapped heat not being able to dry out as fast.
The Safeway was a loss, but Subveri said firefighters were able to save "everything" to the north of the building.
Safeway released a statement Thursday thanking first responders and saying it was "grateful, beyond measure" that no one was injured:
"On behalf of Safeway and Albertsons management and employees, we wish to thank all first responders including Phoenix Fire, Phoenix Police, Glendale Fire, and utility crews, who worked fearlessly throughout last night and into early morning hours battling the fire that devastated Safeway located at 35th Ave and Northern in Phoenix.
Our primary concern throughout this tragic fire was for the safety of our employees, customers and emergency workers. This morning we are grateful, beyond measure, that there are no reported injuries or casualties.
It is our intent to relocate employees from this store to other locations in the Phoenix and surrounding areas. Though we never anticipated this tragedy, our company leaders are focused on determining next steps following the loss of this store.
Our heartfelt gratitude extends to the community in which we've had the privilege of serving for 37 years at this location.
We realize that this Safeway location was the main grocery store for many residents in the area and we're exploring different options to assist residents with their shopping needs."
The company said pharmacy customers can fill prescriptions at any nearby Safeway or Albertsons location.

Love will break.
Sometimes it is fixable.
Sometimes it has to be replaced.
We were supposed to take on the world.

I'm spent.
I'm done.
Happiness has gone.
My life, a heap of shards.
Cut into pieces no one wants.
The ocean swallows me.
A stone without a shore.
The fire did not burn for me.
So much life in misery.
I drown in tears I cry for her.
I shout out loud and want it gone.
Can't take the agony and misery.
No talks, no life, no end to see.
Old though are taking over me.
Death,my beloved enemy.
One day we will meet and see,
there is no place for me to flee.
Kicked when down and thrown around.
Hurting in this moment, just to see,
I gave my best and yet ain't free.
Demons lurking inside me.
Another bitter tragedy.
Suicidal tendencies. Clean up the mess.
Please crazy diamond shine on me.
Are we all just torn apart?
Kill myself to make everybody pay.

From all the feelings that I ever felt, betrayal is the hardest to stomach.
I thought things were getting better.
Was I naive again? I can't tell.
Nicole still sees him, has daily contact.
Thomas Handschuh
, a guy I once counted to my best friends, and whom I have never named as one of the sources of my misery, is still trying to botch my life. He just can't get the fuck out of my way and let me try to heal my family. I wanted to have him back as a friend. Not anymore.
I tried to support my wife in every possible way. I understood that she is hurting. But yesterday I figured out she is still in close contact with him. Heck, he was even in my flat. Sees her when she is at shows, goes to her performances at the theater and the party afterwards. While I am at home taking care of our sick daughter.
I have never felt more betrayed than now. Bring on
The Great Destroyer
This time, it's the last chance I am willing to grant to Nicole. I set her an ultimatum to cut ties with him completely. Today. If this doesn't happen,it's over. Simple as that.
I learned I can live without her, but I want her in my life. But not at all costs and not on the pretext of betrayal.
I was over this shit. I did not have hard feelings for anybody. Gave my best to maintain a very positive attitude and outlook for the future. Most of this was destroyed last night.
This time, it were not my own actions that pushed me back to the dark side. I am not to blame.
I am not willing to continue this way. I have no idea what will come out of this. But I will survive.

My condition: Home, Diagnosis and Bad Habits
Last time I left some questions unanswered. This was mainly due to the fact that I had no answers to them. So I guess it is time for an update on my current situation.
I was couch surfing for a week and stayed with my relatives in Vienna. I also had a lot of talks and phone calls with many friends and family members. I have to say, I know some pretty awesome people. Thank you all for your support, kind words, suggestions and support. Also, let's not forget the evenings with (a bit of) beer and deep, thoughtful discussions.
The next week, Nicole stayed out of the flat and I moved back in. We actually were a lot at home together, to spend time with our daughter. Needless to say, she was extremely confused and did not understand what was going on or why we were not all sleeping at home.
Sleeping in separate locations was rather strange but it helped a lot. It introduced some calm into our relationship which we desperately needed. This, along with the fact that I picked up therapy, eventually led to Nicole stopping her affair and we are now living together again.
I also ditched my first therapist because he literally had no plan and I didn't feel helped.
I now have a kick ass therapist, a truly awesome woman that has the nice mix of a personality of a grandmother and professional therapist.
On top of that, I saw a psychiatrist and was diagnosed with
Bipolar II disorder
. Getting this diagnosis was a big relief. Of course, you don't want to have this diagnosis (I hoped it was "only" depression), but in my case it helps me more than most other things.
Once I had the diagnosis I dug through Wikipedia and read everything I could find. The truth is, some 99% of the described symptoms fit my condition. Having the disorder does not bother me much as I can't change reality anyway. Quite the contrary, I can use this knowledge to understand my own mind a lot better. For example, it never crossed my mind that
black and white thinking
, which I did a lot, could be part of a mental disorder.
I was also lucky to realize that my more positive phases could be part of the problem. Bipolar 2 is hard to diagnose because the
hypomanic episodes
often go unnoticed. Due to anti depressants, they can be be pushed into manic episodes, which is dangerous, to say the least.
It's a constant battle, I knew that for some time.
However, everything has two sides. I started smoking again (I quit 4 years ago) and will have to take medications for the rest of my life. The relapse after stopping to take mood stabilizers is somewhere around 40 to 50%, which makes it far too risky.
Things at home are sometimes still very tense. Nicole made some very hard emotional decisions and a lot of our relationship got destroyed in the last year. We are still picking up the pieces and trying to get it going again. I don't have my wedding ring back yet and I don't expect to get it anytime soon. But at least I am still married. And still in love, even if that is a bit one sided at the moment. But time can heal many wounds and I am giving my very best to rebuild the trust that my wife lost.
I am still figuring myself out and go to therapy once a week. One of the things I struggled with is the fact that I more or less can't be sure of any decision that I took in the last few years. It bothers me a lot less now but it was difficult in the beginning. I monitor myself a lot more now and am way more aware of my own emotions. Therapy, having a diary and meditation helps a lot with this. It's interesting how such simple tasks as writing a diary can change the way you think about your own life. I wanted to start meditation anyway and now is a good time to do it.
My life is currently very much work in progress, a lot of things are in flux and the future is unsure. But I am confident that the future will be nice. I survived worse stuff.
The tattoo wouldn't stick, my wife bought the chain.
Fun fact: Kurt Cobain
suffered from Bipolar II
. That makes a lot of sense.

Join our mailing list for the latest behind the scenes news, updates on RAD and special discounts!
L-R, Suellen Laberdia and Terri Murray
Written by Bryn Hammarberg
Terri Murray and Suellen Laberdia have been involved with fabrics for most of their lives, having started sewing their own clothes at a young age. Originally from Sacramento, CA, Terri has done it all. Before coming to North Carolina 17 months ago, she managed a Hancock's Fabrics store, was a seamstress for costuming, theater, high-end department stores, and boutiques, and even costumed for Stevie Wonder.
For more than 20 years Sue-Ellen has been making a wide variety of clothing, whether they were items to sell at festivals, outfits for belly dancers, custom wedding dresses, or her current focus, upcycling old cloth and clothing into unique pieces. Suellen is also new to Durham, she relocated from the Charlotte area 4 months ago.
Terri remembers being in awe of The Scrap on her first visit years ago. When she retired from her job, the first place that popped into her mind to work at was The Scrap Exchange. She applied for a position while still in California and moved to North Carolina, bringing the house she built for herself with her! "We see how we can create things instead of trashing them," a trait she says she shares with those who frequent the store. That's why she says she makes sure the quilting section is stocked with a fresh, unique assortment of fabrics every day, "because the customers are regulars, and they notice it."
The customers aren't the only ones who have noticed. Scrap Shop Manager Gary Owens says since the two started their team effort, the department has seen monthly increases of up to eleven percent, an impressive accomplishment.
"It's a treasure chest. You never know what you're going to find."
"We make sure that the customers can find their treasures at The Scrap without having to sift through everything," says Sue-Ellen, who loves to get out on the floor and interact with the scrappers, where she is able to share ideas and learn from them as well. She also loves the way everyone works together, the flow of it all, which is not something she has found at many other jobs.
June is shaping up to be a pivotal month for the Reuse Arts District (RAD). On May 31st, El Futuro moved into their newly renovated space in Suite 23. Days later, Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Raleigh signed a lease for their new Durham Community Food Bank to be located in Suite 30, the former DERC space. With the addition of these two organizations, The Scrap Exchange continues to create a buffer against gentrification by providing a mix of services, art, and retail for the surrounding neighborhood.
Dr. Luke Smith, founder and executive director of El Futuro, shares the importance of having the health services nonprofit in the "epicenter" the Latino community it serves. He sees being a part of a campus that includes El Centro Hispano and The Durham Community Food Pantry as a catalyst for the organizations to interact more regularly and provide more holistic services to families. Being within walking distance of one another means "the sky's the limit with what we can accomplish together."
On the arts side …
The Scrap Exchange has partnered with Super G Print Lab to bring screen printing to the Reuse Arts District. Super G will occupy a portion of the Design Center and provide classes and workshops by August if not sooner. "We are excited to be here and are looking forward to collaborating with The Scrap Exchange, working with their unique materials, and being a part of the community, states Bill Fick."
PLUS … Just as this newsletter flies out to the world, another space has been leased! Victor Graham will be opening Rhythm's Live, a new music venue in suites 33 & 34. Victor has set a target date of October 2018 for his new club.
Needless to say we are thrilled by all the activity this month and it's only mid June! Bring it on universe!

Many Thanks to the Triangle Community Foundation!
By Ann Rebeck
Since 1993 the Triangle Community Foundation (TCF) has been a supporter of the mission of The Scrap Exchange to promote creativity, environmental awareness and community through reuse. The TCF mission to inspire and mobilize giving, leadership, and action has allowed for The Scrap Exchange to grow into the national leader that we are today.
The Scrap Exchange would like to honor TCF and its values:
Community: passion for the region, honoring the diverse strengths, needs, voices, and backgrounds of all people in the Triangle
Equity: Strive for equity and focus on people who are marginalized in our region, recognize the importance of addressing immediate needs and structural barriers.
Leadership: Embrace a role in tackling challenging issues that face the region, we invest in building strong, resilient leaders
Legacy: commit to lasting impact
In the last several months we have embraced a capacity building initiative with the support of TCF. The Phase I organizational assessment allowed for us to learn about the changes we need to make to keep thriving. Phase II, if funded, will help establish a strategic plan. None of this visioning would have been possible without The Triangle Community Foundation.

My life continues its bizarre and zigzagging path into chaos. I finally got my car back from the auto shop, and like a human, it paid me back for the kindness with a temper tantrum. (It is strange how often people treat badly those who do them a favor.) The accelerator cable got stuck when I was out doing errands today, and I had to drive back to the house at 5 miles per hour in second gear. It was almost humorous, actually, but it wouldn't have been so humorous if I'd gotten reamed crossing a busy street at such a miniscule speed. The mechanic will come look at it later. Old cars are temperamental and have such peculiar things going wrong. This time it's probably a spring. Or at least I hope it's that innocuous.
Besides that, I've been getting into fights with everyone today, especially the men in my life. They think I should blindly accept whatever they say, and I don't think I should. I suppose it's possible I'm at fault, but it's hard to believe that no matter who I talk to and about what, I'm in the wrong. I should be right about something, don't you think? It seems impossible to be wrong in everything I say. (That's why I like this blog. I can say whatever I want, and blithely continue on my life without everything turning into an argument.)
My father is still in the hospital, and he's being more temperamental than usual. Every time I talk to him, he's castigating me for something. Yesterday he was accepting of the possible need for a catheter for the rest of his life, but he was insistent that I get him out of there at that very moment. Wasn't happy with me at all when I said we had to wait to find out what was going on. He did acquiesce to staying a bit longer when I reminded him that there were no pain medications at the house.
Today when I went to see him, he was upset with the idea of the catheter and refused to go home with it still inserted. He'd been having troubles with incontinence, and he said he didn't mind my having to change his diapers if it got to that point. (Of course, he didn't ask if I minded.) When I reminded him that the catheter was to drain his bladder, and that it was the full bladder that caused him pain, he got mad at me. He also said he was willing to stay in the hospital longer. Yikes.
I understand that he wants to be in control and that he thinks having a catheter means turning his body over to a machine, but he doesn't seem to understand the realities of a 97-year-old body — that the body is in control. If it's not working, it's not working. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he will get the use of his bladder back. And maybe he will — luck is generally on his side.
Hundred degree temperatures don't cool people's tempers, but I'm trying to be as patient as I can. I hope the people I see are giving me the same courtesy.

Why I Do What I Do
Obot Essiet Jr., the Financial Intelligence Coach, is a young Entrepreneur raised from a middle-income family in the suburbs of Ikot Ekpene city, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. Having experienced some financial struggles while growing up, he determined to crack the code to sustainable Wealth Creation.
This lead to his decision to explore the path of Entrepreneurship despite his first-class performance in high school. He has been into commercial Photography, Poultry Business, and Network Marketing. He is an active partner with Helping Hands International, a non-governmental charity organization that is out to make life better for the less-privileged, orphans, widows and the disabled. Career wise, Obot is a professional Architect in the making. He is a graduate of the prestigious University of Uyo, Uyo, Akwa Ibom.
That notwithstanding, he is addicted to reading a lot of Financial Literacy books and articles from renowned authors like Robert Kiyosaki, Eric Worre, Brian Tracy, Tony Robbins, Entrepreneur.com, Investopedia.com to mention but a few. He also immerses himself with online courses, podcasts, and videos from professionals in the wealth creation industry.
He discovered that the major reason many people are struggling financially is as a result of lack of Financial Intelligence education which, unfortunately, is not taught in schools. Hence, he committed himself to making this knowledge available to all and sundry which will serve as a guide to achieving Financial Freedom.
Obot is currently the CEO of FINTEL Consult, a start-up firm that partners with a couple of other firms in the business finance industry to provide Financial Advisory Services to companies and individuals alike.
He has written an ebook on Financial Intelligence titled 15 BENEFITS OF FINANCIAL INTELLIGENCE. You can download your free copy by clicking here.

Hello again 🙂
First of all let's define what rest stands for ! In fact REST (REpresentational State Transfer) embodies the idea of accessing data across the Internet network, referencing resources using a clear and unique syntax.
Still a bit vague i know !! But you will get it at the end of this post i promise 😉
in this walkthrough we are going to access a sharepoint List from the browser and then from a console application using Visual studio 2010.
So Lets Get Started !!
1. Defining the List:
I almost always use the same list in my post. So here it is again my favorite one Employee Review:
you can create it or use another list as you like.
2. Accessing the list from the browser:
In SharePoint 2010 we can access all SharePoint List via Restful Service. Here is the URL to access List REST Service.
For Example: my URL becomes : http://win-5g4msqldlt8/_vti_bin/ListData.svc
as you can see here i have all the lists in my site.
so now i want to see a particular list (Employee Review): My URL becomes : http://win-5g4msqldlt8/_vti_bin/ListData.svc/EmployeeReview
See how simple it is !!! and you can do all sorts of queries via URL.
3. accessing the list from a console application:
1. So lets start by opening Visual studio 2010.
2. create a console app project named Employee Review:
3. Right click on the References node in the Solution Explorer window, then click Add Service Reference.
4. Enter http://win-5g4msqldlt8/_vti_bin/ListData.svc for the address. then click GO and you will have all the lists.
5. Change the namespace from ServiceReference1 to Review.
6. now we are ready to code :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using Employee Review.Review;
namespace Gears
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
TeamSiteReviewContext dc =
new TeamSiteReviewContext(new Uri("http://win-5g4msqldlt8/_vti_bin/ListData.svc"));
dc.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
var result = from d in dc.EmployeeReview
select new
Name = d.EmployeeName,
Rating = d.Rating,
Comments = d.Comments,
foreach (var d in result)
and Voila you will have all the list in you console !! Good job 😉

Today I want to try something new. Its Friday and I am feeling creative. Today I want to open up the comments to the amazing, intelligent and good looking Blog Tyrant community and ask you a question. Hopefully by the end of it all we might have something brand new to talk about.
Whats the question man?
I want to know what you wish existed in the blogging world. I don't care how bizarre, different, similar or boring it sounds as long as it meets two very important criteria:
- It must meet a need or a want
It has to be something that you actually would like to see or participate in or use. We'd all like a solid gold house but it doesn't really have much use in a practical sense.
- It must be related to blogging or website development
This website is all about blogging so let's keep the ideas in the family.
If you have an idea that meets these two criteria, something that you wish existed in the blogging world, I would really like to hear about it. Please leave a comment. If I like it I might send you an email.

Nursing Home Bill of Rights
Get this FREE report, "Nursing Home Bill of Rights," and learn more about the rights of nursing home residents.
When you place a loved one in a nursing home, there is an underlying belief that they will be well cared for. However, often the very people who violate the rights of nursing home residents are responsible for caring for the victim's day-to-day needs.
At Rasansky Law Firm, we fight to defend the rights of every nursing home resident. Elderly citizens in nursing homes are extremely vulnerable to violations of their rights because they are medically frail making them powerless against abusive behavior.
Nursing homes are required by law to assure that nursing homes receiving Medicaid funds "implement and enforce" the rights of the elderly. Do you know what abuse looks like and how to protect yourself? Get this report today to protect what matters most.
