S: Some Things I Remember Mae Caudill Hibbard
FC: SOME THINGS I REMEMBER... | By Mae Caudill Hibbard
1: I discovered this journal when helping to pack up Grandma Hibbard's apartment, while we were in Orlando for her funeral in 1999. It is in the familiar, indecipherable and equally endearing handwriting that we all recognize as uniquely "Mae's". Uncle Raymond's clan, having the advantage of spending years living near Mae and Homer, may already know some of these stories, but for me most all of this was new insight into her life. Even if you already know the stories, and even if you disagree with the accuracy of some of them (as Dad and Uncle Ray are likely to do), the power of her handwritten word to invoke memories of her will surprise you. Just begin each page with "...well honey..." in that slow Kentucky drawl, and you'll feel like Mae is sitting next to you telling you about her life We love you Grandma... Robert
2: 1 I was born in Manchester Ky Feb 14 1906. My mother was Rachel Hensley Caudill, my father Taylor Benton Caudill. My mother had what was called child bed fever in those days & died April 5th 1906. Before going on I will give some dates of the family The Hensley family David & Caroline Marten Martinsburg Va – Lee County. David Born 1810, Caroline 1815 – 12 children Margarite born 3/10 – 1844, Married Robert Hensley – born in Buncombe Co - North Carolina Son Silas Born 4-13-1865. Silas married Susan Hayes Born 12-16-1864 – she was the daughter of James Hayes son of Johnny Hayes son of Abner Hayes born in Va. | SOME THINGS I REMEMBER... | By Mae Caudill Hibbard (1982) | Betty Mae Caudill
3: Silas and Susan Hensley | Martha Asbury Caudill | Col. Benjamin Everidge Caudill | Stephen Benton & Aura Marcum Caudill | Hiram & Sarah Marcum | Taylor Caudill | Mary Jane Roberts Caudill
4: 2 James Hayes married Mary Dixon from Jackson Co – Ky Susan and Silas had 5 children. Rachel married Taylor B Caudill. Taylor Caudill was the son of Stephen Benton Caudill born 4-3-1855 died 1927 his father was Colonel Benjamin Everidge Caudill – born in Va his mother was Martha Asbury Caudill – Stephen married Aara Maurcun Caudill born 1864 Clay Co Ky – her parents were Hirom Marcum and Sally Roberts Marcum – Arra died in 1958. Taylor and Rachell were married in 1903 – To this union was a child – still born and myself. My grandparents The Hensleys raised me on Hectors Creek until I was 2 years old, my father then married Mary Jane | 3 Roberts. At this time Mary Jane's Father, 2 Brothers Chester and Shafter & step mother had moved to the state of Washington – Aberdeen – now – then it was a Saw Mill and lumber town. I went with them for a year or more where my father worked in the lumber. My step moms folks ran a Hotel and we lived there, but my step mom didn't like it so we came home – I can Remember the large ships on the Columbia River going up and down – I also can remember the hotel very well, the gas lights and inside toilets, but I would put orange peels in which caused trouble. Chester was a banjo player and I would go down in the lobby with him & dance for the salesmen & they gave me money
5: Aberdeen Washington - Early 1900's | Chester & Shafter Roberts | Taylor Caudill
6: 4 It would be hard for me to carry it up stairs for my hands were small. I can remember Shafter would follow after me to pick it up – they said when they were ready to come back home I had over $60.00 saved, it was enough to buy our food packs. We traveled by train from London Ky – Before leaving The Hensleys when I was 2 yrs old I can remember keeping a chair under the wall telephone to listen in – I have told my aunt Lula & them where it was and they say about that time they had it removed – but I did know the place where it was. After we come from Washington we lived in one of the houses on my | 5 grandfather Caudill's farm – he had 16 or 17 hundred acres and about 6 renter houses, so when one of the children married, they moved in one until they were able to build their own. Sometime after we came home Mary Jane and Dad had a son, his name was Stephen. I have heard Dr's & older people say he was one of the smartest kids of his time but he had brain fever when he was about 4 yrs old. By then my father & Mary Jane were both dead. Taylor died in 1913 and Mary Jane in 1914—before that I and they and the baby went by train to Virginia to St. Helena, a friend of the family owned property there and dad went for his health but | 4 It would be hard for me to carry it up stairs for my hands were small.

Taylor died in 1913 and Mary Jane in 1914—before that I and they and the baby went by train to Virginia to St. Helena, a friend of the family owned property there and dad went for his health but
7: 6 I can remember it was a country place and kind of swampy – a big house in the area sold us milk and eggs – I know I would have to walk across the fields to get it I must have been 5 or 6 years – I used to tear my clothes on the barbwire fence & be scolded when getting home – Later when Ray was born and I had Malaria fever the Drs were amazed where I could have gotten the germ & when I told them about Va – the said it could have lain dormant until I was in a weak condition I think that must have been in 1912 – I remember when we lived in Clay Co I was out playing in the yard around a pile of old bricks and | 7 Rocks and kept calling for my dad to come look at the pretty worms I had found when he did come I had a nest of young copperheads in my lap – 3 or 4 of them. I can remember at the same place dad would set traps for birds and I would watch them in the snow go in to get feed – I think they were mostly red birds. (I guess the traps were set for Rabbit & birds got in). After my dad died we lived at grandpa Caudill's as he had a big family and several renters on the farm in the winter they would kill as many as 25 or 30 hogs – make lard, sausage – we would shuck beans all winter – hide onions in the hay to keep from freezing – put up
8: 8 pickles & corn beans in barrels, also kraut – and sulphered apples – we made hundreds cans of black berry jam and jellies also apple – then, we didn't know how to can beans, tomatoes & so on. We could pile a ton of potatoes in a shallow hole filled with hay – then make it like a cone & lay planks up the sides to the top (like the pic) - cover the top with tin then cover all with about a foot of dirt, then in cold weather you could go in move one plank back get out enough potatoes for a week & recover it. We would have several mounds, and have potatoes all winter long. The renters families would come to us for meats and food and they would pay by working | 9 for grandpa – There had to be coal stripped for the whole farm's houses also sometimes timber would be cut and sold. At that time about all you could buy in stores were – sugar – soda & salt, coal oil for lamp, some flour – if you lived on a farm you raised your own –we had our meal ground, made our own molasses – tapped the maple trees & made our own maple syrup & maple candy – we had our own black walnuts white walnuts hickory nuts and chestnuts – hazelnuts – these were all to be gathered in the fall – I never saw grandpa do a lot of labor but his horse stayed saddled as he would ride all over the farm seeing
9: 10 to the men who were working – These renters share cropped when their work was done they would help the big house – we always kept from 10 to 30 mules – to do the plowing. 6 or 8 cows for milk and butter, over a hundred hens at all times. When I was very young my job was to gather eggs – we had a hen house but they lived in the barns and would lay under the cribs & I would under crawl with a basket to get 50 or more at one time. Grandma would save a case & then take them to town. That was her money. If grandpa needed any he could always kill a hog or beef and lay it on hay & a sheet | 11 in the wagon & go to town from door to door - people would be so glad to get fresh meat. He would cut off what they wanted & weigh it out. He would take one of the younger boys to help. As the children all went to school, I can remember when 12 of us went at one time for several years. We only had 6 months of school. In town they would teach a winter school for pay - the older people would go. I can remember how the boys, the Garrisons & Crafs would all pass, & my uncles would join them & skate on the river to school. The older girls could board in the 3 winter months. By the
10: 12 time I was in the 4 & 5th grade we had 9 months of school. A lot of the older boys & girls were married by then or some of them when I was going. Our family was very musical we had a brass band they would play for fairs, also lots of strings – fiddle, banjo, guitars, ukes to play for dancing. We kept 2 pianos – one upright Baldwin an one 5 leg – which Stella Maron has now. It had been brought in by wagon over the smokies from Charleston S C. – Grandma Caudill having 17 children I imagine she was pretty busy when they were little. By the time I come along she never did much. She never got out of bed, her or grandpa, unless breakfast was ready. | 13 We usually had a hired girl to help – you can imagine how much washing and ironing was needed – I can remember being over the wash board at an early age – we had a big iron salt kettle in the washing yard where we boiled the white clothes – I can remember drawing buckets & buckets of water from the open well – the night before wash day I would fill tubs to use the next day when sometimes a cow or horse would get in the lot & drink it up and all would be to do over the next day. We were luckier than most families, when the winters were real cold and ice on the river we would cut ice and haul up in wagons
11: 15 Also we had a spring house. This was dug out of the hill in the orchard where coal had been taken out it was about 20' by 20' – it had a slate floor hard in one side was a deep hole where you could dip in a bucket and get a clear cool water and on the same end where water came in over the floor about 1" or 2" deep we could set our milk and butter which was always cold. There was a trough cut in the slate to carry the water out – into a drainage ditch. This was rocked up with stone inside the hill & the front was rock except the door. It had a heavy roof – some times after a heavy rain mud would get in & my job was to scrub it. | 14 and fill a big ice house this was built with two layers of plank about 8 inches between, planks going at a slant inside & outside turned the other way this was then filled with sawdust and as a layer of ice was put down then covered with sawdust until the house was filled the building must have been 20' by 40' or larger. Doors were at the bottom but as it was filled, a big door was in the top so as hot weather came you would use from the top. As it would get down to make enough room, us kids could play on top of the ice in hot weather the saw dust would cover it under feet. So, we could have cold lemonade and plenty of ice cream.
12: 16 With such a big family we had a lot of company sometimes some of the cousins would spend several months there. If grandma had any cousins who had children they would stay all winter or summer. The Caudill boys & Clocea Sewell from OK, would come for a year or 2 – Uncle Shilpy & Bige and them would open a mine to make them some money. Grandpa was a Primitive Baptist, and the Church was built on our farm. Church was once a month on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. Everyone that come from any distance stayed with us. Sometimes we would kill a beef or mutten | 17 or lots & lots of chickens. But in other weekends all the kids would come. We had a basketball court and a baseball field. The people said grandpa would have been quite wealthy but he fed out all his profit – but he would never turn anyone away – when court was in session – or teacher meetings everyone come to (our) home – to stay – but we had a large house. Grandpa said when he was a young man after the war – he and his sister, she was older – took a trip south on horseback his parents wanted them to visit and look for some of their family - and many of the nights they could find no place to stay and be in the rain & | Primitive Baptist Church
13: 18 cold & hungry and have to sleep in the woods. He said he made a vow then to never turn anyone away from his home if he ever had one & he sure didn't. I heard him tell about when he was 7 or 8 years old they lived Whitesburg Ky – his dad was a Colonel in the Sothern Army and once when the northern troops come through sacking & burning, his mother hid all the children in the woods above the house in the rail fence curbs & covered them with leaves but they could see them when they come they took all the live stock the chicken they could catch they brought all the furniture out | 19 broke it up – broke up the dishes – ripped open the feather beds & pillows and left them with nothing took all the food from the house & smoke house took the corn from the crib ---- I have heard grandpa tell about when years ago the Jessie James mob were staying in Manchester. Ford, who was with them was akin to the Littles and when the posse come in after them they rode across the hill and come down behind our house and through the yard and on over the hill with the posse after them it was early in the morning and all the noise awoke the family up – I wonder if anyone will be able to read this—
14: 20 When I was real young we all went to a 1 room school at Slick Rock but as we all changed and went to the Manchester graded school – we had an academy for the older students, but before I was ready for high school, the Co. had one. Before that the older children went to Berea - Aunt Lina, Kate, Shelby and Biges. When my father was young he and Uncle Hiram & Uncle Henry went to Oneida Baptist School, for Education beyond the grades. My dad & mom were in school there when they were married at a very young age. Uncle Hiram married a school teacher. I have had people tell me he was one of the greatest ball pitchers, he had been scouted by several teams – but one 4th of July after a game with | 21 London Ky – all the team went to the Burchell Mill pond to swim & he being so hot he developed pleurisy or pneumonia of the lumbar – he only lived about 2 months. I remember he had played the Mandolin & accordion - and these instruments were never allowed in the children's hands but Grandma & Grandpa would play them, one of their favorites was the Bonny Parts Retreat. My father was a great Banjo player and I have given Ray his old Banjo. It still has the original groundhog hide cover on it. I tried to find out how old it was but couldn't. Once I showed it to Eddy Peabody when he was down the street with Mark's music teacher – he said he never saw one as old it must have come across the Cumberland gap with early settlers into Ky. | "When They Hanged Old Callahan" by Mary T. Brewer They hanged the fiddler, so goes the tale O that gruesome but strangest affair; How three were condemned and three men were hanged And how the last one fiddled there. The scaffold was built, strong, sturdy, and tall, With the hangman's rope fastened in place And round them the people, while the fiddle tune played, Did a wild and lively dance pace. The lumber for coffins was brought to the site; "How long must they be and how wide?" "We be three feet and a 'backer-chaw' tall!"
15: 23 of course hard feelings still remained between the families – months after this when my grandpa was coming back from surveying trip in the Mounts he met and talked with Newberry. The next day or sometime after that Newberry was found killed. As Callahan was supposed to be the last man who saw him he was hung in the town of Manchester. Grandma said years later before Begley died he confessed to the killing – when I first heard this I told Frank (Judge) Stivers about it and he didn't believe this had ever happened. So the next two days he spent in the court house going over records and found this was so – Newberry hill in Clay Co got its name from this event. | 22 By the way, my Grandma Susan said once her Grandpa was a Callahan who come into Ky with Daniel Boone & helped survey the road from Va line to Boonesboro. She told me also that he had been one of the outstanding men in the county and as a surveyor he rode a lot & knew the county well. At that time The Newberrys and Begleys – were having a family feud over the Mast over on Red Bird River. People in those days raised a lot of hogs and they lived on the abundant Mast in the hills. The courts appointed her Grandpa to be an arbitrator between them and he counseled with them and they agreed for the Newberrys to keep their hogs on one side of the Red Bird River and the Begley on the other | The doomed men called out in reply. Two men were hanged and laid to the ground While Callahan played the death-knell, Then upon the scaffold he challenged the crowd To come play the fiddle as well. But none took the dare and fear gripped them all As they gathered much closer around. With a shout Old Callahan struck the handrail, Broke the fiddle as the trap-door dropped down. Now tales of the past may be forgotten and fade, Lose much of their glory and shine, But Old Callahan's tune can still be heard As it echoes forever through Time.
16: 24 There are so many things I want to tell I will never get them in order. Grand kept oxen also as they could pull logs and sleds when the ground was ice & snow. I can remember when logging was done & they used the oxen. Uncle Beck was small for his age & it fell his job to go in front of the oxen with a basket to talk the oxen on – they never moved to the whip or command as mules & horses would. When it rained or sometimes snowing we would ride horses to school and pick up the kids on the way sometimes arrive with 3 or four kids to a horse. We could all ride from very young. As the boys got older each had his own saddle horse. Grandma's mare Mollie was the one we a rode most. When | 25 I was very small & saw my first circus – my great ambition was to be a circus rider to get the mare Molly out in a field away from the family and try to stand up and ride on her bare back. Was quite a treat she was very broad. I would fall off a lot but was never seriously hurt. We would take a trip every 2 years over to Red Bird. That was where Grandma Caudill's brothers & some sisters lived. We would take a wagon for the trunks & kids & driver, Grandma & Grandpa rode their saddle horses – we would stay several days with each great uncle and aunt. Go down the river toward Oneida to visit. It would take about 3 weeks to make the rounds – then some of the cousins would come stay several
17: 26 weeks they would be older and there were lots of parties – the girls all in pretty silk taffeta dresses – I can remember my Grandma's sister would come from OK about every 3 years for a month or so. She & Grandma had married brothers – Steve & William Caudill. Aunt Purlina would make lots of light bread & rolls – which we loved. She made us wonderful Lady & Lord Baltimore cakes – sometimes a dozen for Christmas & using a wood stove was quite a task. Anyway, Aunt Purr would say "Aara don't make the girls so many cotton dresses, get them some nice silk & satin". | 27 By the time I was in the 7 & 8 grade I was quite a ball player. I was an hour school baseball time at 12 & 13 & played 4 years of high school basketball & one year in college. I was always the captain & was small but very fast, so I was always chosen on the SE tourney & 2 times on the state. I was able to travel quite a lot as our tours were 20 or 30 miles or much farther away. We could take a train to Barboursville then go on to other places by car sometime. I must have been in 7th grade before the a train come to Manchester. Its where everyone went on Saturday afternoon to see the train come in. I had riddin a train when very young but
18: 28 had to travel by wagon or horse to London Ky to catch the train 25 miles. I can remember the first good highway which came to Manchester, it wasn't complete in 1928 when Homer & I were married. Before my Grandma was born her father Hiram Marcum came to town, it must have been 12 or more miles – he lived at and on the Red bird River. It was in cold weather and as he started home he heard a baby cry – he had his horse tied near one of the nice homes in town near the barn lot – he found a new born baby (colored) and carried it to the home. Whites – one of the leading families lived there and they owned slaves – none | 29 of our families did – anyway, when he showed them the baby they said they had to many & didn't want it – so he wrapped it in an old blanket & carried it in his arms on his horse all the way home. He couldn't understand any human being thrown away – so this became Matt Marcum – it was one of our great joys to go there and see Matt. I can remember when I was small all of Grandma's (kids) were married & Matt stayed with her mother until she died – Matt wore men's shoes, man's hat & long dresses – she would plow & make the garden, she was quite old now. Later she went to live with my Grandmas brother John, and some years later they brought her to visit us in Manchester. She had never seen another colored person on a train | Shelby
19: 31 she kept a stick to jab us if we got too near her – I can remember her saying "Steve, Steve make these young-uns stop". As we all grew older several married off – but I had to (do) lots of babysitting -- I spent many weeks & months with Aunt Allee & her 3 kids. As Uncle Will worked in other towns a lot. When I was 9 or 10 – somewhere that age, my Grandparents had a law suit over me. The Hensleys wanted me to live with them – I would stay with them a lot in summer and as there were no young children my age Grandpa Hensley would put up a big swing to an apple tree & swing me for hours at a time. They said he would lose a crop every summer I came. | 30 so Grandpa had a time getting her on, but we took her on a trip to Barboursville on a train - Aunt Stella, Grandma & Grandpa and myself. This was only a 24 mile trip but it stopped at every post office, anyway when we reached Parks Valley, where a lot of the whites lived some who got on the train raised a ruckus because the conductor let her ride in the white coach & ordered she should be removed to the colored coach. When this happened Grandpa took us all to the colored coach saying he preferred the change. So the next day coming back we all went to the colored coach. We kids would tease Matt. It was because we loved her and
20: 33 get to the Hensleys they wouldn't take me back. It was a good half day's ride or more— So one time when school started I was started in school at Hectors Creek after two months they were having their monthly church meeting and my Grandpa C. and Aunt Stella & Lina came to the meeting & spent the night with the Breuer family – one begged for me to stay with them. Then about 2 AM in the morning Aunt Lina woke me & Stella to go outside. Grandpa had the horses saddled & we rode home in the night through the hills they were afraid to be near the road as | 32 I had all the attention, also didn't have a chore to do – I wouldn't eat breakfast until a certain goose laid her morning egg – it was In a deep hole at the end of a foot log across Hectors Creek. I would take a hoe to get out the egg. After the lawsuit it was agreed I should stay with the Caudills during school year and the Hensleys other times – I guess I made it hard, as I liked the fun we had with the big family – also all the attention I had at the other. Anyway, the Caudills didn't take me to the Hensleys on time or when I would | Hensley's House
21: 34 they might be followed I must have been about 11 by this time. Sometime after this my Hensley Grandparents & some of their family moved to Lincoln Co. and I never saw much of them until I was married – Homer & I would go visit them. There was always hard feeling between the 2 families – at the time of this writing 12-19- 82 (19 Dec 1982) I have Aunt Lily 88 – Aunt Mollie 82 – still living of the Hensleys. Only Aunt Stella Carnahan who is 77 – of the Caudills. In later years there were only Aunt Stella, Uncle Estell, Bob & Beck who were not married, lived in Detroit Mich. & worked. My grandparents had taken Polly Michell when | 35 she was about 13. She lived with us until she married in 1927 or 1928 – during these years we had lots of nice friends, went to dances & parties – I worked hard in the summer hoeing corn – working the garden. I could drive a team of mules in a pinch at the last when only Grandma & I were there. Grandpa died in 1927 – I made the cain crop & she & I ran the corn mill & made the molasses. I believe she made the best to be made all the years growing up. That was something she didn't trust any other one with. Homer & I were the last to marry in 1928 – the next year or two the big farm was divided up into 13 parts, Grandma got 1/4th.
22: 36 Several of the children died without issue, each had so many acres. Aunt Stella drew the place she didn't want, and some of them raised such a stink that I drew a bet on which they thought I didn't deserve, yet I know I did more work than any two of them – so they were after me to change with her – not Aunt Kate or Uncle Bob, Uncle Beck or Shelby kept out of it. So I finally changed, I traded my place for our first house in town, as I had borrowed money at the bank to go to college on. I took the house in the Locus Hollow and the notes at Bank were paid off. Really I never went back out in the old | 37 home place much after that. Later after Maurice & Ray were boys we sold the house in town & bought the old home farm where Homer was raised at Greenbriar & built a house there in 1936-37 – I believe. | Greenbriar Ky

The economic blockade in Manipur was lifted in the early hours of Monday, March 20, ending 139 days of strife in the North-Eastern state. By daybreak on Monday, trucks containing essential supplies had started trickling in. However, there were indications that the sky-high prices of several commodities would take some time to reach normal levels.

How the blockade was lifted
The decision to lift the blockade came as a result of tripartite talks between the United Naga Council (UNC), the Central government and the Manipur state government. The talks were reportedly smoother this time because the BJP was in power both in the state and at the Centre.
It may be noted that the BJP had assured the electorate in Manipur that the blockade would be lifted if they came to power. In fact, the blockade was lifted even before BJP leader and current Manipur Chief Minister Nongthambam Biren Singh managed to prove his numbers in the floor test!
Slow return to normalcy
During the economic blockade, the prices of essential commodities had skyrocketed in the state: Petrol was around Rs 250 per litre as compared to around Rs 70 across the rest of India, while a 14-litre LPG cylinder came to cost Rs 3,000 in the state as compared to the subsidised cost of Rs 400-500 elsewhere in India.
With the blockade lifted, trucks and other vehicles so far stranded on the borders of the state have started trickling in, bringing with them commodities of daily use that have so far cost a bomb in Manipur. However, sources say it will take some time in Manipur for the prices of these items to come down to normal, primarily because their supply chain will need to return to normal first.

It's been a long time since I've written anything. I suppose it doesn't matter what I'm writing right now as nobody is reading this blog yet. If you are reading, bless your heart for enduring this rambling post likely filled with run on sentences. Anyway, my name is Crystal and I'm single parent of four kids. I have a 17-year old daughter named Taylor. I have a 14-year old son named Andrew. I have twin boys, age 7, diagnosed with autism at the age of 3. I probably won't showcase much of my teens. It's up to them how much they'd like to be apart of this blog. My twins, Keiren and Sahki, are instrumental in my decision to blog. They helped me create this site.
We are not full time travelers. One day I'd like to travel continuously, living a digital nomad lifestyle of some sort. We haven't sold all our belongings and left the country. Yet. We're not there yet and the kids are not ready for long term travel. They have their lives here, my daughter has a job she enjoys and I respect that. We do have a trip planned in March, to New York City. I haven't decided where else we will go once in New York. Perhaps a cruise, Miami, Chicago, who knows. We will go wherever the airfare deals take us.
Our life hasn't been easy, we've gone through tough times together. We are finding our path, seeing what feels right. I decided there would be no more school for us. School is too constricting for our way of life. I want to travel and not be tied down to school schedules. After careful research and reading, the decision to take my kids out of school was an easy one. Andrew was flunking, Sahki has always hated going, and Taylor had no desire to go to school anymore. Keiren liked school but loves homeschooling. I always hated school growing up and I wish there had been alternatives for me. I could no longer send them to school knowing they weren't getting much out of it.
I've never been traditional at all, and I've lived my life in a way that's different from everyone I know. I suppose this makes it easier for me to do something other people would call crazy. I don't worry about fitting in because I've never fit in anyway. I still struggle every day, but I love learning and writing. I'd like to keep this blog honest even if it isn't popular.
I hope this blog can help and inspire others, as so many blogs have inspired me. I've always wanted to travel. Before I had the boys (my twins) I had planned our vacations for the next ten years. I never imagined I'd be homeschooling, but I always imagined I'd be traveling. When the boys were diagnosed with autism I thought, well there went that. I was wrong, you absolutely can travel with autistic children. It may be harder, it may take longer, but you can do it. Trust in yourself. Believe in your kids, and let them teach you sometimes. We've all got what it takes.

Welcome to SAGE Raleigh!
SAGE Raleigh is an active program of the LGBT Center of Raleigh and an affiliate of SAGEUSA that advocates and provides services for LGBTQ persons 50 and older.
Mission and Vision
In 2017, the SAGE Raleigh Leadership Team developed the following mission and vision statements to provide focus, guidance, and direction to the organization:
Mission: SAGE Raleigh addresses issues of aging in the diverse population of the LGBTQ community by improving the quality of life through advocacy, education, and promotion of social interaction.
Vision: To increase awareness of and participation in SAGE Raleigh and to be the premiere resource for service providers and for advocacy, education, and social inclusion to benefit LGBTQ seniors in central North Carolina.
SAGE Raleigh is an organization that is welcoming, respectful to everyone, and is committed to reach out to LGBTQ aging adults, and therefore has a vital role to play in the community. Ongoing weekly and seasonal social, educational, health-related, fun-oriented, and physical fitness events and activities are promoted that benefit the LGBTQ elder community.
Advocacy, Education, and Social Interaction
SAGE Raleigh's Mission and Vision provide direction and focus on three key areas.
SAGE Raleigh is represented on the board of Resources for Seniors, on the GOLD Coalition, and on the Governor's Commission on Aging. Members are active participants in senior services organizations, so LGBTQ voices are included when decisions about services to aging persons are discussed and implemented.
SAGE Raleigh has developed training programs to support leaders and staff of senior services organizations to be more sensitive and effective when dealing with LGBTQ residents, clients, families, and caregivers.
Social Interaction
Increasing social interaction and reducing social isolation among members is a key priority. Many social programs, responding to the varied interests of our members are scheduled on a regular basis.
Social Activities for Members
The LGBT Center is reserved every Thursday morning for LGBTQ friends to come in, have a cup of coffee and a pastry, and sit around and chat. A complimentary lunch is served on the first and third Thursday of the month. At the third Thursday luncheon there is also a guest speaker as part of the 'Lunch and Learn' program. SAGE Raleigh women enjoy attending and receiving a complimentary cash reimbursement that covers or reduces the cost of their meal at a fun group luncheon held once per month in a local restaurant.
Weekly walks are held to encourage exercise and health as well as providing social opportunities. Five major social events are hosted each year by SAGE Raleigh: Valentine's Day Dance, Memorial Day Picnic, July 4th Picnic, Labor Day Picnic, and Holiday Party. Other events are scheduled intermittently.
There are no dues. It is free to be a SAGE Raleigh member, and anyone can sign up to be a member. You can email email@example.com if you need additional information, have questions, or would like to ask to be put on the SAGE Raleigh mailing list in order to be informed and take advantage of planned activities/events. Additionally, SAGE Raleigh is listed on www.Meetup.com, and you can register there to receive regular announcements.
You are encouraged to complete the SAGE Social Activities Survey so your interests can be considered as existing programs are enhanced and new ones developed.
To accomplish its Mission and fulfill its Vision, SAGE Raleigh counts on the support of dedicated members who will share their special skills, volunteer to help with the many planned activities, provide constructive feedback and suggestions, donate financially to the organization, or just participate in our many planned activities and events.
Individuals and groups are invited and encouraged to submit plans for hosting meetup events and activities that support this endeavor. Applications submitted are reviewed by SAGE Raleigh's "Events/Activity Team Coordinators" to determine if the event/activity is appropriate as a SAGE Raleigh-endorsed meetup event/activity. (SAGE Meetup Event/Activity Application)
Major Initiatives
Senior Housing Initiative
One of SAGE Raleigh's more ambitious objectives has been the SAGE Raleigh Senior Housing Initiative. Its goal is to advocate for an affordable, safe, respectful and welcoming place for LGBTQ seniors to live in their golden years.
Triangle Expo for LGBTQ Aging Adults
In June 2018, SAGE Raleigh succeeded at one of its most ambitious projects to date. SAGE Raleigh partnered with Resources for Seniors to host the very first Triangle EXPO for LGBTQ Aging Adults. The main purpose of the EXPO was to bring together providers of vital resources and consumers who are 50 and older. Hundreds of people received a multitude of resources, gifts, and service opportunities from our many vendors and exhibitors. Needless to say, the Triangle EXPO for LGBTQ Aging Adults was a huge success! Look for upcoming events.
SAGE is the country's largest and oldest organization dedicated to improving the lives of LGBTQ older adults. Founded in 1978 and headquartered in New York City, with staff across the country, SAGE also coordinates a growing network of affiliates in the United States.
SAGE is a national organization that offers supportive services and consumer resources to LGBTQ older adults and their caregivers, advocates for public policy changes that address the needs of LGBT older people, provides education and technical assistance for aging providers and LGBTQ organizations through its National Resource Center on LGBT Aging, and provides cultural competence training through SAGECare.
In partnership with its constituents and allies, SAGE works to achieve a high quality of life for LGBTQ older adults, supports and advocates for their rights, fosters a greater understanding of aging in all communities, and promotes positive images of LGBTQ life in later years.
SAGE Raleigh History
Originally known as the "Gay & Gray Initiative," this program was born in the spring of 2011.
In 2013, the Gay & Gray Initiative affiliated with SAGEUSA under the name SAGE Raleigh. The organization has continued to grow exponentially as new initiatives have been implemented, and membership and participation have experienced steady growth.

Polymeric EPDM Multi Use Games Areas or MUGAs are often coated in a polyurethane coating to aid slip resistance and to comply with governing body guidelines. There are also Acrylic coatings and Water Based coatings and you can use these coatings on Porous Macadam and Synthetic sports surfaces. Polyurethane or PU coatings, will give the ball court surface an anti slip property which will comply to the TRRL test of 60 for Multi sports and 75 for Netball. These Polymeric systems can have numerous sports played on the surfacing such as Netball, Tennis, Football and Basketball and the sports kickabout court can be coated in different colours like red, green, white and blue and all of these courts can have game markings or sport line markings installed on the surface.
As the Multi Use Games Areas are often made in different sizes / dimensions, the applications of the anti slip sports coatings are done by using airless sprayer. A roller may be used but if the court is particularly large, it may take longer to complete the work than if you were using the spraying option. Artificial pitches or AGP pitches can be painted with acrylic and water based coatings but the PU coating is much better for the EPDM Polymeric coating. These coatings / finishes can all be dependent on the specification and budget of the client.
These can all be tweaked dependant on the surfacing requirements and Soft Surfaces can help you with quotations, budget / funding, costings and contractor information. As we are a true turnkey contractor, we can help you with the full construction, surface upgrade, clean and repainting if required. Please visit our website or call us on 01625 445760 for more information.

When I first saw the trailer for this film, I nearly laughed out loud at how bad it looked. Maybe it was just Bradley Cooper with his blonde dreadlocks, or possibly the aggressively generic title, but I just assumed this movie would turn out to be some kind of terrible, grotesque comedy that isn't at all worth my time. It was only after reading an interview with the film's writer/director/star Dax Shepard that I decided it was worth checking out. While I don't personally love this movie, Shepard is able to produce a very interesting and well-crafted film, and more importantly, a film that lets the audience know who he is both personally and as a film maker.
Charlie Bronson (Dax Shepard, referencing notorious criminal Charles Bronson) has a great life. Having entering witness protection after testifying against an old friend for a crime they committed together, Charlie meets Annie (Kristen Bell) and has fallen madly in love with her. However, when Annie goes to a job interview in LA, the very place Charlie is no longer allowed to set foot in, Charlie throws caution to the wind and runs off with her, much to the dismay of her ex-boyfriend and the bumbling federal marshal in charge of Charlie's safety.
The highlight of this film is clearly Shepard, who successfully proves he can rise above his usual roles as a character actor, as he effectively carries this movie on his back. Other than that and Bradley Cooper's small role, I found the acting to be a little awkward and timid, not the kind of characteristics you are looking for in a comedy. The script was well written and without a doubt funny, but I'm afraid there were solid comedic moments the audience would only be able to enjoy if better actors were involved.
In addition to acting, writing and directing, Shepard also made the most of his fairly limited budget with the car chase scenes, and even did a fair amount of the stunt driving. Most of the driving stunts are electrical and innovative, but there is not nearly enough to warrant a title like Hit and Run. This is not really a movie about stunt driving or comedy though, but rather an interesting take on the relationship comedy, as it touches on a wide variety of relationships, romantic and otherwise.
I am just going to go ahead and recommend this movie for those of you who haven't heard of it or haven't seen it. As I mentioned before I didn't exactly love it, but the response this film has gotten is either very positive or extremely negative. For a film such as this, I cannot encourage or discourage you from seeing it based on my own experience, but if it sounds like something you would be interested in, it may be worth checking out. Especially if you like Dax Shepard, as this movie seems to solely belong to him.
Rating: 3 out of 5

Re: Leading From Behind
Dear Mr. President,
To most of us, that means "following".
Re: Leading From Behind
Dear Mr. President,
To most of us, that means "following".
No, not here in America. Not yet.
But lawyer and radical preacher Anjem Choudary is determined to bring Muslim extremism to young people in London, as reported in June at Creeping Sharia. And this month he's going even further in his efforts to "radicalise the youth" and imprison Londoners in an iron cage of Islamic rule.
Mr. Choudary is attempting to set up sharia law zones in London in which smoking, drinking, music, and concerts are banned.
The Daily Mail reports:
"'You are entering a Sharia-controlled zone – Islamic rules enforced.'
"The bright yellow messages daubed on bus stops and street lamps have already been seen across certain boroughs in London and order that in the 'zone' there should be 'no gambling', 'no music or concerts', 'no porn or prostitution', 'no drugs or smoking' and 'no alcohol'.
"Hate preacher Anjem Choudary has claimed responsibility for the scheme, saying he plans to flood specific Muslim and non-Muslim communities around the UK and 'put the seeds down for an Islamic Emirate in the long term'…
"The campaign comes just months after stickers proclaiming a 'gay-free zone' and appearing to reference the religious Islamic text of the Koran appeared in Tower Hamlets.
"Women in parts of East London including Tower Hamlets have been threatened with violence and even death by Islamic extremists if they did not wear headscarves."
For some time now, our President has been trying to frighten the public by saying things like this:
"I cannot guarantee that those [social Security] checks go out on August 3rd, if we haven't resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it." (7/12/11)
Later that night, a perceptive Dick Morris told Sean Hannity the following:
"When he says that we're facing a disaster if there is a default, I hate to disrespect the president, but he's lying. He now doesn't claim that we're going to default on our debt. He says we'll default on our obligations. Well folks, there's enough money to pay the debt, the social security, Medicare, military pay and a hundred other things. The obligations he's talking about are the bureaucrats in the labor department and the commerce department and the agriculture dept and the state dept. And those obligations are not the obligations we really care about. The president [is using] total fear tactics and it's a lie. A big lie."
So now we're defining "default" as the failure to pay bureaucrats on time? Try that definition on the Wall Street crowd and they'll laugh in your face.
Well smack my face and call me Rip Van Winkle, because I must have been sleeping. Otherwise I wouldn't have missed the fact that we've solved the debt crisis.
We have solved the debt crisis, haven't we? The Gang of Six actually made a meaningful proposal that was accepted by everyone? Obama didn't veto the "Cut, Cap, and Balance" bill? All those seniors are going to get their Social Security checks come August 3, right?
I mean, if that's not the case, how could our President in good conscience pour millions of our tax dollars into new and unnecessary departments like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? And new arts initiatives like "Champions of Change"?
And he surely wouldn't be taking yet another vacation, this one at the swanky Blue Heron Farm on Martha's Vinyard if this crisis had not yet passed, right?
No, no, this crisis must be over. Otherwise every Republican in Congress would be locked in solidarity against such ridiculous and extraneous expenditures; and they'd be offering plans to solve the problem, as well as demanding to hear ideas from their Democrat counterparts, as well as the President. Wouldn't they?
Amazingly enough, there are times when I feel sorry MSNBC. And yes, now that Keith Olbermann's gone, it's mostly when Contessa Brewer says something stupid.
Like this:
In case you didn't know either, Rep. Mo Brooks of Alabama has three degrees: economics, political science, and law.
Okay, I don't really pity MSNBC. I actually pity Rep. Brooks for having to suffer fools like Ms. Brewer.
H/T: HotAir
Thank God for these men. They knew exactly what they were doing.
May you have a very happy Independence Day. And may God bless America.

| Then: On January 6, 1983, around 2:15pm, someone committed an armed robbery at a supermarket in Roxbury, Massachusetts while another stood guard outside. Peter Vaughn didn't know anything about it. At that time, he was with his girlfriend picking up their son from daycare. Six months later at age 21, he was arrested for the supermarket robbery and held on five thousand dollars bail. While awaiting trial, Peter was offered a deal to plead guilty and receive "Time Served." He refused and took it to trial. He was innocent.
Despite his innocence, on December 28, 1984, Peter was convicted based on a witness who misidentified him as the "lookout" and was sentenced to 7½-12 years in prison. While incarcerated, he was even approached by another inmate who confessed to him that he had committed the robbery. In November 1986, an appellate judge reviewing the case ordered an acquittal and release. He was released the next day without any money or a stable home to go to, and without direction in life. In his first years out, Peter struggled with anger, drugs, alcohol and homelessness.
Now: Peter now lives in Brockton, Massachusetts in his own apartment, close to his mother, whom he visits daily. He is proud to have been clean and sober since November 1994 and continues to attend at least two Alcoholics Anonymous meetings each week. Twenty years after his release, he is no longer angry, which he relates to being clean. He says, "I pray on my knees every morning before I have my first cigarette and coffee." He is grateful for being sober, having a roof over his head, having his mother, and for having developed his self-esteem. He enjoys the simple things in life—like his morning cup of coffee at the corner donut shop, taking walks and talking on the phone.

|Oracle FAQ
|Your Portal to the Oracle Knowledge Grid
Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: workarea_size_policy=auto and performance efficiency [was: Re:
I take it that your two points are...shall we say...enhancement requests, not current functionality? :-)
Following up on the discussion of "space-efficiency" and tabling (for the moment) my questions about the "performance-efficiency" side of things. Yes, there certainly is an element of "performance-efficiency" to "space-efficiency" if it keeps you from swapping...
Using WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY = MANUAL, only the sort workarea has ever even pretended to give memory back for the duration of the session, depending on the relationship between SORT_AREA_SIZE and SORT_AREA_RETAINED_SIZE. The hash and bitmap workareas have never had this functionality, as near as I can tell.
So, I think that you're absolutely correct that sessions using WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY = MANUAL will allocate the memory and hold onto it for a long time, essentially until they disconnect. Is this correct?
Is WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY = AUTO any different? From what I've gathered, the P_A_T algorithms only occur upon allocation of workarea memory. Is there any additional logic around de-allocation, possibly when the server process has finished using the workarea? Perhaps there is logic to de-allocate before beginning another operation requiring? Or do server processes hold onto workarea memory forever here as well?
I'm prepared to accept P_A_T as the "best thing since LMT", but so far I don't see it. At least not for all circumstances (as with LMT). I see it as a good thing in memory-constrained environments, but in environments with plenty of RAM I see it so far as a possible source of unnecessary instability with no upside.

text: Blockchain and its role in crypto-tradingIn today's economy, blockchain technology has become a veritable revolution and the foundation of the crypto-currency market. Becoming extremely popular, this technology is constantly evolving, which makes it possible to create new systems and limitlessly increase the capacity of the detachment. Experiments of people with this technology continue all the time and the value of the block is constantly growing. This is evidenced by even the figures of investment in this technology. Only for the period from 2013 to 2017, investments increased from $ 95 million to as much as $ 3 billion. It's really fantastic! And this is only the beginning.There are certain difficulties in today's time with an understanding of blockchain technology, this is due to the extraordinary stir of bitcoin and crypto currency. Modern business will not be able to receive a potential profit using distributed registry technology until such an understanding comes. Fortunately, this situation will not last long.Blockchain is a complex algorithm used for crypto currency. Blocks are characterized by data structures that are forward-looking, which in turn are responsible for the movement of electronic cash flows. Thus, he acts as an intermediary in the role of an administrative executor, which in the classical scheme was determined by a bank or state!The blockchain itself is responsible for storing electronic coins. They do not need to be transported somewhere, or they should be left somewhere, but they can be sold and they function thanks to the block-system, in turn, the number of electronic coins is constantly growing! In order to roughly imagine the work of the blockade, imagine a registry that is constantly updated and increase this scale several billion times!It is clear that the technology blockchain is the foundation and foundation for the emergence of crypto currency. And at the same time, the extraordinary growth in popularity for the digital currency is caused by the knowledge of people that trading in this currency can be extremely profitable. And the investment in this rather young industry, which has grown over several years from several million to tens of billions of dollars, only confirms the profitability of this direction of the digital present.After all, with the help of block-making technology it became possible not only to provide financial information, but also to receive considerable income from this. Therefore, it is not difficult to draw conclusions that this technology and its continuous improvement play a leading role in the trading of crypto-currencies. In turn, blocking and crypto trading is like two powerful engines that provide energy to each other, because getting their income investors are constantly working to improve this technology, which is reflected in the emergence of new crypto currency and ways of trading. Hence the conclusion about the longevity and profitability of this industry.

Cargol Turn & Go is a totally new way to ensure your trip is not disrupted in the unfortunate event of a punctured tyre.
Cargol Turn & Go system is designed to be simple to use and fast. It requires no skills or tools to use. Once you have removed the offending object from the tyre with the needle nose pliers supplied in your kit, you simply screw the specially designed and patented Cargol plug all the way into the puncture, then break the head off the Cargol and use the Co2 cartridges and adaptor supplied with your Cargol kit to reinflate the tyre. It really is that easy.
As CARGOL Turn & Go does not require the wheel to be removed from the vehicle to perform the repair, why risk the danger of changing a wheel on the roadside or wait hours for roadside assistance when you can be going again in a few minutes?
GK007 contains the following items.
2 x Cargol Turn & go tubeless tyre plugs
3 x 16gr Co2 bottles for tyre reinflation
1 x Valve to Co2 bottle adaptor
No tools required.
No mechanical ability or special skills required.
No force required, Cargol screws into the tyre with ease.
Extremely quick, it takes less than 30 seconds to install the plug.
No glue to go off before you need to use it.
Compact size will fit easily under any motorcycle seat.
No dirty hands to try and clean on the side of the road.
For safety we always recommend repaired tyres are inspected by a tyre professional as soon as practical.

Around this time last year, I found me a new addiction and time waster.
And the Omniscient Mussel has just reminded me that #operaplot is happening again. Not that I'd forgotten exactly, but I hadn't been paying proper attention to the dates.
And it's this week. Yikes!
Entries open Monday 26 April at 9am EST. And I don't think that's Australian EST, so Sydneysiders are best to wait until after 11 o'clock tonight just to be on the safe side.
Entries close on Friday 30 April at midnight (or 2pm on Saturday). Thank God it's only a week or I would get nothing done.
The rules and FAQs are here. The prizes are very enticing indeed.
Non-winning entries from the past are eligible, so those of us with treasured rejects can dust them off and send them out on another attempt. But half the fun is inventing the things, of course. The other half is following everybody else.
The entry limit is ten (your first ten contributions, anything after that is sheer indulgence). Unfortunately @FAKEfrindley was outed last time, although no one's exactly saying you can't enter from more than one account…
So off you go, get ye a Twitter account if you don't have one already, and operaplot!
For geeky Mac-using types I recommend the Smultron text editor as a drafting tool (Smultron is Swedish for strawberry, by the way). It's very simple, which is good for creativity, and it counts characters as you go.

Do plan ahead as this drink must be chilled prior to serving.
Your Iced Coffee Ingredients
Brew coffee to the desired strength.
Using a heatproof pitcher or bowl (I used a Dutch oven), combine the brewed coffee, sugar, and Dutch-processed cocoa powder.
Stir as long as it takes for the sugar and cocoa to dissolve completely.
Add the cinnamon sticks and cloves.
Twist each piece of orange zest and add to the hot liquid mixture. Twisting the orange peel pieces releases the oils inside, which will infuse the coffee with flavor.
The coffee should stand at room temperature for 60 minutes so the flavors can meld nicely. If you think of it, stir it a few times during that hour.
After the coffee has been standing for an hour, pour the mixture through a sieve in order to remove the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and orange zest.
Cover the container and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Stir the coffee mixture before pouring.
Fill chilled glasses with ice and then fill the glass 3/4 of the way with the coffee mixture. Add 1/2 and 1/2 to fill the glass to the top.
Now isn't that a tasty drink?

Hundreds of yoga teachers in India are helping tsunami survivors by leading yoga classes and teaching meditation and breathing techniques to people in tsunami-affected areas. According to a report in the Khaleej Times Online, the federal government of India is implementing a mental health program to assist in rehabilitation. Health Secretary P.K. Hota points out that the mental health effort is part of a multipronged approach to help restore the habitat and livelihood of the people.
Yoga teachers from all parts of the world are joining in the outpouring of support for tsunami victims by contributing to fundraising efforts to support survivors. For example, in Washington, DC, Georgetown Yoga sent proceeds from classes held specifically to provide aid, as well as money raised during a Thai yoga massage open house organized by instructor Matt Borer, who had returned from Thailand in December—only 1 week before the disaster.

UPDATE 6:30PM: In a prime example of how HB 7055 was rushed through the process, after passing the Senate earlier this afternoon the Florida House completed the final passage of this bill this evening. The bill now goes to Governor Scott's desk to be signed into law.
As we have seen over the last week with the teachers strike in West Virginia, there is power in numbers. HB 7055 is another attempt to chip away at that collective power.
The Florida AFL-CIO has and will always fight for the rights of workers to have a voice in their workplace. There's a reason why corporate special interests and the legislators they own constantly try to undermine unions. That's because they know that the last line of defense in protecting our most fundamental democratic institutions like public education, workplace safety, and good jobs with fair wages is a united and organized work force.
Today was a sad day in Florida. Today's vote pours salt in the wound of last year's HB 7069 battle but we are confident that the people are waking up to this threat to our most cherished institution and are ready to escalate the fight.
Thank you to the thousands that called, emailed, and visited your legislators over the last nine weeks of legislative session. Your voices were heard, but our legislators still voted against public education and our teachers, and for wealthy school privatization interests in our state.
The struggle to protect our schools is far from over and we must increase our collective efforts in the months to come. Stay active, stay focused and stay tuned for updates in the coming days by signing up for legislative alerts on our website at www.flaflcio.org
UPDATE 5:00PM EST: The people of Florida learned a cruel truth today about the Florida Legislature. They learned that the corrupt forces of school privatization are controlling both chambers of the legislature and members of both parties. They also learned that those looking to profit by destroying education will do anything, especially destroying one of the most effective forces against them, our teachers and their unions.
HB 7055 will shift millions, eventually billions of tax payer dollars from traditional public schools to for-profit interests including private schools and charter schools and silence the teachers and their union who stand in opposition. Four brave Republicans, Senators Hukill, Grimsley, Lee and Young, stood up to these forces and stood strong with public education. That would have been enough.
Unfortunately one Democrat stood with school privatization. Senator Bill Montford voted for the bill. If he would have stood with our public schools and honored the principles of their party, this travesty would not have happened.
Since the bill was amended in the Senate, HB 7055 now goes back to the House for final passage before it goes to Governor Scott to be signed into law.
Before the House attempts to pass this bill again, make sure they hear from you. Use Florida Education Association (FEA) online tool to be connected with your local House member NOW!

Advocating for Anti-Cancer Care in the US
I can sum up 20 years of frustration from seeing women (and men) not get the health care they need in one sentence:
We need health care, not the SICK care we currently have in the United States.
The World Health Organization speaks loud and clear in their latest Cancer Report:
"We cannot treat our way out of the cancer problem." "More commitment to prevention and early detection is desperately needed in order to complement improved treatments and address the alarming rise in cancer burden globally."
Is that not the clearest statement you've ever heard? And yet, I have yet to hear a patient say their doctor or therapist gave them preventive care or advice over drugs or diagnostic testing.
Our country's health care system is so paralyzed by "curing" instead of preventing, that we have found ourselves in the worst state of health care in recorded history. Read my short post below that discusses the predicted soaring rising cancer rates alone. Chronic disease rates are higher than ever, and science supports we are one of the worst countries in the world for taking care of our own. The press writes, "Americans pay more for "bad" medicine."
Our health care costs more and delivers less. Why do we put up with it?
The answer is: We should not put up with substandard care that:
- neglects women in pain (read my post on how American's Broken Health Care System Affects Women)
- has the highest first day death rate for infants and the highest mortality rate for mothers in the developed world, (read my post, Mothers Declaration of Rights)
- and hardly ever addresses the root causes of disease, clearly stated by the WHO: 1) smoking, 2) inactive lifestyle, and 3) poor nutritional habits.
My Short Story: What Fires Me Up about Health Care Should Fire You Up Too
Health care still looks pretty much the same as it did when I graduated with my masters degree in physical therapy almost 20 years ago – it looks like a train wreck.
We are stuck in the "fix it when it is broken" phase of medicine, even though we as a collective industry already know that chronic disease, once it has manifested itself in an individual, is VERY hard to treat with any level of success. The old maxim, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," must have escaped the notice of medical schools all across this country for the last 100 years, because we fail sharply and often at treating chronic disease.
Overall, this article has brought up many relevant points – it underscores the need for early referral, early intervention, and referral for healthy promotion and lifestyle counseling. If I as a PT am supposed to carry out the vision statement of my professional body, American Physical Therapy Association, which is to "transform society by optimizing movement", then I am obligated to continue to advocate for the expansion of PT services to include reimbursable health promotion and lifestyle education for those people who have cancer, especially women (who are disadvantaged by the system). I am obligated to advocate for anti-cancer care. I am obligated to do right by my patients. The current health care system does not do that. It underutilizes PT and limits your access to preventive care.
Americans deserve better health care. We all deserve the chance to live free from cancer because we've had the proper preventive care and education, received in a low-cost, low-tech way that PT's are experts at. We deserve to receive detailed, individualized information about our health and the best way to exercise for your needs; again, something that PT's are experts at doing. We need interprofessional conversation between health care disciplines, and a return to valuing the feminine characteristics of caregiving and nurturing in health care. Where did the "care" in health care go? I rarely experience it as a patient myself; and, most of my patients report the same lack of caring from other health care providers.
Advocating for Anti-Cancer Care: What We Can Do
The only way to receive better health care, is to ask for it.
Start questioning the decisions and recommendations of your health care provider. Ask why you need a drug or diagnostic test. Ask for scientific evidence that supports their prescription. Their unwillingness to answer these questions or respect your independent research on matters that effect your health, is a huge red flag.
Remember: You have the right to hire and fire your health care provider. Ask the tough questions, and if they are worthy of caring for you, they will answer them with enthusiasm and respect and consider you the leader in your own health care, not a follower who just obeys "doctors orders."
The Yoga of True Health Care
I have a vision of what health care might look like if we truly did have a preventive system of care. I might call it the "yoga of health care," and it would look something like this:
You would visit your health care provider, be it a doctor of medicine (MD), doctor of physical therapy (DPT), family nurse practitioner (FNP), or other primary care provider (yes PT's should be primary care providers in musculoskeletal and neuromuscular care; for example, they lower risk of disability from back pain, reduce cost, lower risk of surgery, and produce happy patients), who would respect your inquiry and concerns and genuinely appreciate your input about your health and well-being.
They would not speak down to you or any other provider, be it nurse, tech, or aide, or pretend as if they are your intellectual superior. You would have low-cost, readily available preventive care that would drastically reduce your risk of chronic disease, many types of cancer, and your overall out-of-pocket health care expense.
That is my "yoga of health care" dream. It isn't complete or perfect, it is evolving. But it is a heck of a lot better than what we have right now in America.

Retired Army Gen. David Petraeus can't seem to wriggle out of the media's spotlight as Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward reported Monday that Roger Ailes, founder of Fox News, tried to convince Petraeus to run for president.
Fox News reportedly sent Kathleen T. McFarland, a Fox News national security analyst, to Afghanistan to interview Petraeus in 2011 when he still commanded U.S. forces in Afghanistan. During their 90-minute interview, McFarland told Petraeus that Ailes felt Petraeus should turn down any position other than a nomination to chair the Joint Chiefs of Staff and run for president.
Petraeus turned down the offer and ended up taking over as the CIA director after Obama nominated him. Of course, a year late he resigned after he admitted to carrying on an extra-marital affair with his biographer.
Back in 2011, McFarland reportedly told Petraeus that Ailes had offered to quit his job as the chairman of Fox News and run Petraeus' campaign. Ailes and Rupert Murdoch, the head of News Corp., also offered to "bank roll" the campaign, Woodward wrote.
Washington Post obtained a recording of the interview between MacFarland and Petraeus. MacFarland and Petraeus did not provide comment for the article. Ailes denied much of the reporting saying he didn't want to leave his post at Fox News and the suggestion to Petraeus was made only tongue-in-cheek.
Whether the suggestion to run for president was sincere or not, Woodward's report provides yet another window into the tight relationship Petraeus maintained with the media. Plenty of rumors swirled about Petraeus' potential presidential candidacy, many of them in jest, as some defense reporters joked that Obama nominated Petraeus to head the CIA only to eliminate a potential opponent on the campaign trail.
Fox News is seen in many circles as merely an arm for the Republican Party. The hissy fit Karl Rove was allowed to throw on Fox News airwaves when Fox News declared the presidential election for Obama further supported those suggestions. However, the details of the conversation between MacFarland and Petraeus questions the objectiveness of any Fox News report that had to do with the four-star general. (Full disclosure: Military.com holds a content sharing agreement with Fox News.)
It would be false to say Fox News was the only media outlet with such a close relationship with Petraeus. In fact, many defense reporters have since admitted to falling under Petraeus' charms. But for the head of a media outlet to go as far as to suggest to a general that he should run for president is disturbing, not to mention he supposedly offered to run the campaign.
These reports continue to call into question the many swooning Petraeus profiles as well as the subsequent reporting on the military operations he led in Iraq and Afghanistan. This is not to say the progress Petraeus oversaw in Iraq should be ignored, but the more details that come out about the inappropriate relationships he had with the media means more questions should be asked.

Justin Taylor has posted an excerpt of Michael Horton's review of popular devotional bestseller, Jesus Calling, by Sarah Young. Horton critiques not only the overall message of Young's book, but the method of delivery as well. In fact, the method of this type of spirituality, and the assumptions which underlie it, inevitably leads to the type of message it delivers, and that message in turn, fosters further encouragement of the method. The whole review may be found at White Horse Inn, here.
Some may be upset by Horton's negative critique. However, not only do I think he is right, but, in light of the problems he points out with this book, I think he shows amazing restraint. I must admit to not reading the book myself, but I trust Horton and I recommend this review and caution to anyone who may be reading or considering this devotional. Horton's review gives occasion for some additional thoughts on the use of devotional books.
Many devotional guides encourage the reader to closeness with God by dwelling on the emotional level of sentiments, passions and desires, and of mentally working up deeper feelings. Very often such works don't focus (or not much) on the actual works of God in redemptive history, culminating with God's saving work in Christ. It is Scripture's record of God's mighty acts in history, things like God's covenant and gracious dealings with the patriarchs, the Exodus, the leaders God puts over Israel which pre-figure Christ, the exiles and returns, the prophetic pronouncements of judgment for idolatry and passionate calls to repentance and promise of restoration, and of course the incarnation, life, death, resurrection, ascension and present reign of Christ and indwelling of the Holy Spirit…it is things like this which teach us who God really is and what he is like. Through these things we really get to know who God is. But in focusing on the emotions and feelings of the reader, many modern devotionals miss all this and so give us a very warped picture of who God actually is and how he interacts with people. We end up thinking of God as someone who is primarily concerned with our own inner spiritual and emotional self-image, which is an image that could be called one of the prevailing idols in the church today.
Finally, any work that purports to record the direct messages of Jesus, as Jesus Calling does, ought to raise red flags immediately. There are enough quotes in Horton's review to convince me that this book's overall emphasis, the direction is leads, and the assumptions it makes about how God speaks to his people, are not biblical and therefore it ought to be avoided. The kind of spirituality that this book will engender in the Church is the kind we already have way too much of.
