Fr. Roger J. Landry
Chapel of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, Rue du Bac, Paris
Votive Mass of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal
Pilgrimage to the Saints and Shrines of France
September 12, 2013
Rev 12:1.5-6.14-17, Ps 45, Jn 2:1-11
To listen to an audio recording of this homily, please click below:
The following points were attempted in the homily:
- In the Gospel of the wedding feast of Cana, we see something truly important about our Blessed Mother, the fact and the how of her intercession. She saw an impending disaster happening for a newly married couple and their families. In Jewish culture, a wedding feast lasted eight days with three meals a day and plenty of food and plenty of wine. For them to run out of wine in a reception would be today like going to a wedding reception and there being no food. There's no indication, however, that any of the people who were responsible for the reception were adequately aware of the imminent catastrophe, not the wine steward, not the couple, not even the mother of the bride. Only Mary adverted to the problem. Why did she notice when others who should have noticed didn't? Because when one loves, one notices the details. When one loves, one is faithful and pours oneself into things others may miss or consider small. Likewise the same Blessed Mother who helped that young bride and groom is likewise noticing precisely what we need — whether we are aware that we need it or not. She is more attentive to us than the most attentive mother.
- The second thing we observe is how the Blessed Mother intercedes for us. She always goes to her Son. She herself doesn't have the power to work miracles. She brings the needs to Jesus. And as we see in the Gospel, even when Jesus is reluctant to do a miracle that would bring others to start squeezing him into their narrow hopes for a political Messiah rather than a savior from sin, he did it anyway for her. It's always been a great consolation for me to know that Mary is always turning to Jesus to ask him for what I need, whether I'm aware of it or not. Doubtless she's saying to him right now about each one of us, "The one you love is tired with jet lag, having arrived in France just a few hours ago with no sleep on the plane and is trying to pay attention during Mass!" She's probably intervening for many more things, too.
- The reason why the Wedding Feast of Cana is chosen by the Church for the Votive Mass of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal is because it points to the reality and the power of Mary's intercession.
- In July 1830, only a few months after St. Catherine Labouré, whose incorrupt body rests to my left, had entered the Daughters of Charity here, she was awakened in the middle the night by an angel appearing like a little boy. You can see a depiction of this in the beautiful Mosaic in the triumphal arch above. He led her to the chapel where there was an empty seat placed right at the back of the right leg of where the present altar stands. The angel told her to wait and very soon Mary appeared seated on the chair. St. Catherine immediately fell down on her knees, placed her hands lovingly on Mary's lap, and proceeded to have a tender conversation with her for the next two hours. It was then that Mary revealed that she would have a special mission for her.
- Four months later, Mary revealed what that mission would be in a second appearance on November 27. She appeared in an oval and asked St. Catherine to have an image struck in accordance with what she saw. Mary told Catherine, "Have a medal made according to this model. Everyone who wears it around his neck will receive great graces. For those who wear it with confidence there will be abundant graces." On the front Mary was there with a crown of twelve bright stars, in line with what we saw in today's first reading from the Book of Revelation. Around the inside of the oval were the words, "O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to them." In her hands were rings with precious stones emitting rays of light. Mary told St. Catharine that those were a sign of the graces that she pours out on those who ask her. When Catherine asked why some of the rings had no rays, Mary said that those were an image of the graces that people should have asked for, that Mary wanted to give, but that they never asked for. On the back side of the Medal was an M for Mary, a Cross, and an image of Jesus' Sacred Heart crowned with thorns and Mary's immaculate heart pierced with a sword. Eventually, Catherine spoke to a priest who served as her spiritual director and told him about the apparitions. At first, he was reluctant to believe, but over time Catherine's sanity and sanctity convinced him that they were true and he had them struck, with the permission of the Archbishop. No one but him knew that St. Catherine was the one who had received the apparition until she revealed it to her Mother Superior 46 years later as St. Catherine was preparing to die.
- As soon as her spiritual director starting passing out the medals to the Daughters of Charity, they started passing them out to others. The next year there was a terrible plague in Paris and other parts of France and a dramatic string of miracles from those who were touched by the medal. So many wonders accompanied the prayerful use of the medal that it was almost immediately dubbed "the Miraculous Medal." Use of it spread quickly throughout the world and as we know it is still quite popular. I was always very touched that Blessed Mother Teresa and her Missionaries of Charity always pass it out as a means to get people to trust in our Lady's intercession.
- Today all of us come here to this sacred spot in which the Blessed Mother appeared to St. Catherine and today is interceding for us. We all have some devotion to Mary, but today is an opportunity to grow in our love, appreciation and docility. I've always been moved by the expression the Blessed Mother revealed: "Pray for us who have recourse to thee." The word re-course literally means to "run back." It points to the fact that many of us once had a deep love and devotion to our Lady but we have wandered away from it. Today is a day for us not to walk back, or to crawl back, but to run back, to return with urgency, to receive her great help. Around the Triumphal Arch above me, in French, are the words the Blessed Mother said to St. Catherine appearing to her in this very chapel. "Venez au pied de cet autel. La les graces seront repandues sur tous." "Come to the foot of this altar. There graces will be poured out on everyone." As we being our pilgrimage here in France today, we come to that very altar begging Mary, conceived without sin, to take our intentions, the needs of our family members, our loved ones, all those who have asked us to pray for them, to her Son.
The readings for today's Mass were:
A Reading from the Book of Revelation (Rev 12:1, 5-6, 14-17)
A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She gave birth to a son, a male child, destined to rule all the nations with an iron rod. Her child was caught up to God and his throne. The woman herself fled into the desert where she had a place prepared by God, that there she might be taken care of for twelve hundred and sixty days. But the woman was given the two wings of the great eagle, so that she could fly to her place in the desert, where, far from the serpent, she was taken care of for a year, two years, and a half-year. The serpent, however, spewed a torrent of water out of his mouth after the woman to sweep her away with the current. But the earth helped the woman and opened its mouth and swallowed the flood that the dragon spewed out of its mouth. Then the dragon became angry with the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring, those who keep God's commandments and bear witness to Jesus. The word of the Lord.
Responsorial Psalm — The Queen Stands at Your Right Hand Arrayed In Gold (Ps 45:11-12, 14)
Listen, my daughter, and understand; pay me careful heed.
Forget your people and your father's house,
that the king might desire your beauty. He is your lord.
All glorious is the king's daughter as she enters, her raiment threaded with gold;
In embroidered apparel she is led to the king.
The maids of her train are presented to the king.
They are led in with glad and joyous acclaim; they enter the palace of the king.
The throne of your fathers your sons will have; you shall make them princes through all the land.
Alleluia — "Blessed are they who hear the word of God and keep it. Blessed is holy Mary who fully obeyed God's will."
A Reading from the Holy Gospel According to John (Jn 2:1-11)
On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding. When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine." [And] Jesus said to her, "Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come." His mother said to the servers, "Do whatever he tells you." Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus told them, "Fill the jars with water." So they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter." So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, "Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now." Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him. The Gospel of the Lord.

"When one has tasted watermelon he knows what the angels eat." – Mark Twain, author
It never occurred to me that it was such an odd thing to do, roasting a watermelon. Plenty of fruits have been roasted in many a dish. There's even an eHow entry on how to do it (though I do it differently). Yet it seemed to be a hot topic on more than one evening over the last two weeks' worth of dinners. 'Tis the season and all that, and I wanted to make use of this juicy, fresh, summertime favorite. And so, it became a part, a small part I thought, of the two most recent menus.
So let's start here – and then we'll get into the menus themselves. I treated the watermelon differently the two weeks. The first week, as here in the photo, I stuck it under the broiler (so it's really, I suppose, broiled watermelon rather than roasted) along with red bell pepper, red onion, garlic, and rocoto chilies, all sprinkled with coarse salt and drizzled with olive oil. And then simply let it brown away. The watermelon loses a decent amount of its water weight, but not by any stretch all of it, and the sugars start to caramelize and the flavor concentrates. Obviously it was destined for a savory presentation. The second week, using just the watermelon and rather than the broiler, just roasted for about half an hour, no other veg, no salt, no oil, it was headed for dessert. So, on to the menus?
Since most of the dishes have made appearances before, I'm going to cut down on both photos and verbiage. Two weeks ago the menu began with our latest iteration of trout ceviche, a dish I covered in depth back in October. Then followed on with a gazpacho, using the above roasting pan of fruit and vegetable – pureed, seeds and all, along with peeled cucumber, coconut milk, red wine vinegar, olive oil, basil, salt and pepper, and then strained and chilled, drizzled with smoked paprika oil and a grind of black pepper over the top. The following two courses were our heart of palm tart and then lomo saltado served over rice and with quinua impregnated pappardelle. And we finished off the evenings with a new dessert, a peach cheesecake – infused with peach blossoms, peach juice and peach liqueur, topped with brown sugar caramelized peaches and a fresh mint gelato.
On to this last week and a menu that launched with our vegetables "a la tahitienne", the only difference being that fava beans are out of season and corn is in. Chilled beet soup with jalapeño gelato – it still looks like the linked photo but these days I use honey instead of corn syrup and fresh jalapeños in the gelato. Then on to the fish course pictured above – our latest take on sudado, slightly inspired by one of our meals in Trujillo last year – I quickly broil the fish, in this case pez gallo, served over a saute of diced potatoes, halved cherry tomatoes, black olives, garlic, thyme and oregano and finished off with some lemon juice, and then all the ingredients that go into making the sauce for sudado cooked down together, pureed, strained, and then thickened. The main course was our pepian de pollo with peas three different ways. And, finally, onto the watermelon dish, a watermelon cheesecake using a strained puree of the roasted watermelon in it, topped with a mix of cherries, strawberries and blueberries, grated white chocolate, and mint syrup.


text: The headline may well give away the identity of the latest addition to the Lego Marvel Super Heroes roster but I'm not going to tell you who it is here. The video below explains all and, in its gleeful enthusiasm, makes the game seem like one of the most enticing prospects on the release horizon. I've been playing lots of Saints Row IV recently and, as my muscular goth hobo was plummeting from an enormous alien tower, I realised that the Lego games and the Saints Row series have a great deal in common. They both favour a toybox approach to play, forgoing mechanical complexity, and instead piling on ideas, characters, customisation and objectives until only Alan Apathy could be bored. Mr Apathy is not on the Marvel roster.

You Are Now Free to be Tracked about the Country: The Wall Street Journal Launches Jet Tracker
In recent years, executive perquisites have received increased scrutiny from shareholders, shareholder advisory firms and the press, and no perquisite serves as a greater lighting rod than personal usage of corporate aircraft. The 2006 SEC proxy disclosure rules, which require the cost of personal travel on company aircraft to be disclosed if it exceeds $25,000 per year or more than 10% of the cost of all perks, make details regarding this perquisite readily available.
Some believe these values have been under-reported by companies, but it is difficult to independently validate these beliefs. While flight data for aircraft owned by many public companies has been publicly available through flight tracking websites for years, to complete a search most websites require a plane's tail number, which can be hard to connect to a specific corporation.
Yesterday, the Wall Street Journal made it much easier for the general public to connect the dots. In connection with their June 16, 2011 front page article entitled, "Corporate Jet Set: Leisure vs. Business," they launched an interactive Jet Tracker database. Now anyone can type in a company's name and see where and how often that company's aircraft have traveled since 2007. The article focused on flights to and from vacation locations, including resort areas and executive's personal vacation homes, and questioned if personal usage is being under reported by certain companies. Additionally, the Jet Tracker site provides an estimated total cost for each flight, facilitating comparisons with amounts previously disclosed in the annual proxy statements.
Our View
The launch of this database has the potential to produce fact checking or "gotcha"-type articles by local news outlets and, in some cases, shareholder comments. While we believe this will drive additional attention to the topic and has the potential to cause Boards to rethink their aircraft polices, this should be a non-event for most companies.
The fact that the imputed income attributed to executives for such travel for tax purposes is significantly lower than the amounts reported for proxy purposes continues to make this an attractive benefit. Additionally, the aspects of time-savings and security add to the justification of such a perquisite.
As with all things compensation- or perquisite-related, companies should carefully assess their aircraft usage policy in light of current competitive practices and properly disclose all personal usage in the annual proxy statement. Unlike many compensation- or perquisite-related issues, some Boards will have to consider executive security when it comes to their aircraft policy. In these cases, it should be clearly noted in the proxy statement that security plays an important role in allowing or requiring executives to use aircraft for personal reasons.

Hello! Up until yesterday I was able to choose which video player I could use. Now, it uses the default FB player and there is NO way to change this. I tried clearing defaults, deleting Allcast cause I thought "maybe" there was something in the update that messed with the defaults. Nothing works. I do not want to do a factory reset.
I have a Samsung Tab II and it now is doing the same thing? Both were fine yesterday and today now they auto default to the FB player. I did not know there was one built into the app but there must be. The only thing I have not done is delete the current version of FB.
Can someone please check if this is the case on your phone? I would love to be able to use Allcast to view videos and up until yesterday I could. What is weird is there has been no update to the FB app in a while. Very very strange.
Thank you for your help!!

InvalidOperationException The account cannot be created... WTF! Can't even tell you if it's good or not... So i guess it's not! I'd give it zero if i could.

Requires phone verification Requires several steps just to get started including calling them. If I had a cell phone I'd have used it. Had to uninstall.

Unreliable Used several times with success. Booked a cab and got a confirmation email. Cab was a no show and when I called Victoria taxi it never showed up in their system. The operator even commented on the stupid app. The unreliable app caused me to miss a ferry and a day of work.

Cody Ross served notice Sunday that his early-season slump was over, and he reinforced that Tuesday with a game-winning single in the ninth inning.
San Francisco's 1-0 victory over Arizona in turn reinforced the Giants' recent theme -- last at-bat wins. It was the third walk-off win in four games for San Francisco, and the Giants are 7-2 this season in games decided in the last at-bat.
The Giants have played 29 games this season decided by no more than three runs, out of 35 games altogether, including each of their past 17. The total is the most in the majors, and it's a category the 2010 champions also led last year, with 115.
Ross is 7-for-19 with four RBI in the past eight games after opening the season hitting .176 with one RBI in his first 10 games. The team's unexpected postseason hero last fall has picked up a good time to heat up. With Andres Torres' return to the roster Tuesday, the Giants have six outfielders (including pinch runner Darren Ford), and playing time could be dicey for some.
Torres started in center, Ross in right and Aaron Rowand in left Tuesday. Manager Bruce Bochy said he'll decide his outfield each night based on performance and matchups.
In another roster move, Mark DeRosa also came off the disabled list, and he started at third base. That meant the night off for Miguel Tejada, as recent hitting star Mike Fontenot remained at shortstop. Tejada is batting .195.

EA Inc. this week demonstrated Need for Speed The Run for Sony Corp.'s Playstation 3 and Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox 360 at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles.
The current Need for Speed The Run build included a destructive driving sequence through night-based streets to evade authority.

In chase, the helicopter continues to cause destruction in pre-determined sequences in a frantic evasion with traffic in and out of tunnels.
Controls were solid through a little heavy in the squad car. Acceleration and braking were well-developed to offer a solid shot to evade a helicopter spotlight and on-road traffic.
The graphics engine was solid at 30 frames-per-second with plenty of destructive detail and lighting with the Frostbite 2.0 engine.

Mallika Sherawat Bio – Smartasses Magazine – Reema Lamba (born October 24, 1981) is an Indian actress and former model who works in Hindi, English and Chinese language films. Sherawat was born in Rohtak, Haryana to a Jat family.

In 2004, Sherawat starred in Murder, a film inspired by Hollywood's Unfaithful. For the performance, she received a nomination for Best Actress at the Zee Cine Awards, while the film went on to become one of the biggest hits of the year. In 2005, she starred in The Myth, a Chinese film, co-starring Jackie Chan, which became her first international film. She later starred in 2006's film Pyaar Ke Side Effects, Mani Ratnam's 2007 film Guru, as well as the film Welcome that same year. Sherawat's 2008 releases were Ugly Aur Pagli and Maan Gaye Mughal-e-Azam. Both were unsuccessful at the box office.

In 2009, Sherawat starred in the Hollywood film Hisss, and she promoted the showing with live snakes at the Cannes Film Festival in 2010. In 2011, Sherawat starred in another Hollywood film, a romantic comedy set during the Barack Obama campaign for the US presidency entitled Politics of Love, aka Love, Barack, directed by William Dear.

In 2014, she appeared in an episode of Hawaii 5-0 opposite Grace Park, while 2016 saw her star in the adventure film, Time Raiders.
Sherawat has stated that she uses her mother's maiden name because of the support that her mother has provided her. Sherawat has been known her bold onscreen attitude, and for expressing her opinions in public, as well as for the public reactions to some of those statements. In January 2007, Sherawat attended the wedding of Princess Myasa, the daughter of King Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa, in Qatar. In 2009, Sherawat was made an honorary citizen by the Los Angeles City Council during a celebration of India's Independence Day.

Why we think she's hot:
Affectionately known as Bollywood's Kissing Queen, there's no denying that Mallika Sherawat is megawatt hot, but we're willing to venture that her just-arrogant-enough-attitude would be sexy enough on it's own. "Isn't it great that I evoke a reaction from people? Whether it is good or bad is secondary. I find it very tiresome to put up a fake smile, say the right things, be diplomatic. It's just not in my personality to be like that." Oh, the wonderment. How we do love a beautiful woman with an audacious tongue.

Some people think you need a machine like H.G. Wells', or Dr. Who's TARDIS to travel through time. Others believe all you need is to stumble into a faerie ring.
Me? I think all you need is a good book!
Today, the Historical Romance Network is celebrating National Author's Day and the end of Daylight Savings Time today with a special #FallBackInTime event on Facebook and Twitter as well as Tumblr and Google+ to share their love of the historical romance genre. So if your social media is flooded with pictures of romance books, don't grumble and ignore it, TRY one!
I had trouble picking just one book, so I chose Lynn Kurland's A Dance Through Time because I felt it best fit the spirit of the #FallBackInTime hashtag. Time travel, thematic title and a great read! However, you can see from the shelves behind me, that my historical romance keeper shelf (6 ft bookcase, 40″ shelves, double stacked) is overflowing! Somehow, browsing through my kindle reader isn't as fun as running my hand over the spines on this shelf.
The variety within the historical romance genre these days is amazing. From Medieval, Vikings, Scottish Highlands, Elizabethan, Georgian and Regency, Victorian, the Wild West and Colonial America, Edwardian, WWI, The Roaring 20s, WWII, to ancient Egypt and ancient China (GO read Jeannie Lin now!)! You can escape almost anywhere you'd like and find plenty more to read along the way.
So, what do I like about Historical romance as opposed to other subgenres of Romance? I like the slower pace of life and the distance and perspective shift away from the craziness that invades my everyday life. Everyone in those long carriage lines as everyone arrives at the balls are patient and the drivers aren't stupid or rude, they're just part of the process. Unlike the drop-off lines at school where I swear I need a doctor's note to show my kids that I'm not allowed to go in there because of the effect on my blood pressure. You'd think by high school these people would know what was expected of them and it'd be calmer and more orderly. Not!
Anyway, I digress…
I tend to read a lot of Regency set romances because I like the fairy tale aspect of the balls and the titled men. Oh yes, and the cravats! Mustn't forget those! But honestly, I'll read a bit of everything. I started out reading fantasy and science fiction in the very early 80s, and naturally also found my mom's stash of romance novels. She read a lot of cowboys, Native Americans, Dukes, Earls and Viscounts. The worlds that historical romance opened up for me were very similar to the fantasy and science fiction I was reading, but also very different. There was a guaranteed feel good ending. The Happily Ever After. Now she also read mysteries and contemporary romances, but those didn't spark for me then. I like mysteries, but they're not my first choice unless they've also got a good love story attached!
I hope if you don't read historical romance, you'll give it (another?) try! And if you read a book you enjoy, regardless of genre, post a review to help spread the word or drop them a note through social media and make their day. It's a fabulous way to thank an author!

February 24th, 2010 – by: tocca
And actually, it seems like all the animals, camels, elephants, and others have the same calm as cows.
Elephant Festival (Jaipur, Feb.
Along with the fact we had a CS host in Jaipur, this festival was the reason we chose Jaipur as a first destination for after my girlfriend's arrival. We're not that used to seeing this kind of animals here in Europe, so hey, why wouldn't go and see painted ones ? So here we went ! Expecting a parade, and some stuff like that... But attending to something quite different. A mess. An incomprehensible mess. People and elephants everywhere in the stadium. Guard telling people of the audience not to go in the middle of the stadium with the elephants, but people going anyway. A "elephant soccer" match with people running in the middle of the "soccer field", shouting when the elephants were "running" in their direction or shooting the ball towards them, premises of Holi Festival with people starting to paint each other (mostly tourists), TV cameras coming one after another and interviewing you about all that... Well, in a word : India.

Felt DA4
The Felt DA debuted this year and we were blown away by its ride quality and performance, but it's currently only available as a frameset for $4,999 or a complete bike for $12,499. Not exactly an affordable price. For 2012, Felt is making the DA available to many more riders in two ways: By increasing the range of fit adjustability and offering a complete line of more affordable bikes, stretching as low as $3,999 for the Felt DA4 (pictured). Although that price is still a big number, the DA brings ultra-high performance and ride quality to a near-mid price point that is dramatically lower than the cheapest model of the integrated front-end, pro-level tri frames from other brands.

Thursday, Jan. 5, marked Jacquelyn MacConnell's last day as commander at the Camp Verde Marshal's Office.
"She was here just short of a year," CVMO Marshal Nancy Gardner said, but added that MacConnell made a significant impact on Camp Verde's policing culture, building stronger bonds with the community and fostering an environment of collaboration between stakeholders.
According to Gardner, MacConnell had long planned to move onto property she owned in Spokane, Wash.
"It was her ultimate goal to move there," Gardner said, adding that MacConnell also wanted to find a more permanent home before her 4-year-old child started school.
When an offer of employment in Spokane came through for MacConnell, Gardner understood that the move would be beneficial for her employee and encouraged the transition out of police work. According to Gardner, the new position might provide better retirement options.
"It was an offer she couldn't refuse," Gardner said. "Being a commander, that gave her a better opportunity .... We will surely miss her."
Camp Verde Town Manager Russ Martin likewise praised MacConnell, saying that "we just utilized her skills for as long as we could, until she got an opportunity in the one place that could beat us."
According to Martin, despite coming from a police force in Phoenix, MacConnell acclimated well to a rural setting, quickly establishing herself as an expert communicator, often through social media.
"The biggest thing I can think of that moved us ahead was putting together our Facebook presence," Martin said. "She did a great job of updating it and keeping it fresh .... When you know you can get good, accurate information from a source, you go to it."

Wendy and I hung out big time today, and I made so many necklaces it hurts a little to type right now. I also noticed that I have a callus on my pointer finger from weaving thread. Which I'm kind of proud of. I also finally listened to NPR's "Wait Wait…Don't Tell Me!" tonight while making necklaces and I'm officially hooked. I don't know what took me so long, it's like The Daily Show of radio shows.

The Lakers of summer are off to a 2-0 start in Las Vegas, and forward Adam Morrison is finding the competition no more daunting than what he faced in college.
Morrison scored 24 points, including two clinching free throws with 4.8 seconds left, in Friday's 85-84 victory over the Raptors.
Rookie free agent Ben McCauley, a 6-8 forward from North Carolina State, contributed 24 points and a game-high 15 rebounds.
Morrison scored 22 off the bench in Saturday's 88-82 decision over the Cavaliers.
McCauley, right, had 10 points and a team-high 7 rebounds in that one.
McCauley, who has made 68 percent of his field-goal attempts thus far (17 of 25), was a three-time Academic All-ACC selection at North Carolina State.
I am sure colleague Mark Whicker can explain that, as only he can.

The last Symbian update, FP2, was the last Symbian update

Symbian started in 1999 as a non-touchscreen platform. Since then *a lot* of additions have been made to the essentially 13 year old code base. Over time things get messy, new features become more difficult and slower to implement than competitors newly designed OSes. This is why Symbian was put on the back-burner: Not because it was incapable but because implementing new functionality took a huge amount of time, allowing the gap between Symbian and Android (for example) to grow. That being said, long live Symbian.

R.I.P. Symbian. You were the best OS back in the day when I bought my first phone. I hope you are going for a good reason and something better than you comes to replace you.

it is still good even as of today... only lacking is apps... and the browser almost par to iPhone 5!
22. pikapowerize (banned) (Posts: 1869; Member since: 03 May 2012)
i wish nokia will release the greatest, the best and the beast symbian for one last time!
4.3" screen size (standard for me... bigger than 4.5 is a phablet! smaller than 3.5 is a mp3 player)
a dual core 1.5ghz (i dont think quad core will be good) or even intel's 2ghz single core processor. if symbian still cant run dual core
the monstrous pureview with OIS
polycaronate body but still has a removable battery...
and with 4G + LTE support!
at least let symbian exit with a glorious phone!
even though 808 pureview is a legacy... at least release a phone like this for the last time!

29. Loubielou (Posts: 573; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
Just hope the Old Nokia Employees can step in an Save Symbian like they have with Meego,Mr Elop needs to shown that All the Decisions he made since he stepped in at Nokia are Totally wrong,as Windows as made me an loads of others Switch to Android as its like using Symbian
31. SIGPRO (Posts: 2117; Member since: 03 Oct 2012)
Damn my beloved Symbian, still one of the best mobile os's out there.
I still use my N8 beside my N9. Symbian and Meego why they have to kill these mighty os's.....i feel sad! Meego will rise agian with Jolla, i hope Symbian someday to.
What people might say but Symbian and Meego are kings in multitasking and i mean true multitasking. They also did not need the best hardware to run, Symbian is so finetuned that it can run just fine on older hardware......i will never forget the Symbian legends. My N8 will have a nice spot in a while, i am also looking for a 808.
32. akishakoi (Posts: 65; Member since: 06 Dec 2011)
Don't worry guys. Nothing is final just as goodbyes are not forever. Symbian may be discontinued but I know there are people in Nokia who are loyal to Symbian. One way or another, they will come up with something to bring it back to life.
41. Loubielou (Posts: 573; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
Why?did Nokia believe in Mr Elop an is Plan just to help is Old Employees Microsoft out,o.k Nokia gained investment from Microsoft but Windows was to Restricted an not Open like Symbian,Ever since we have seen a Decline at Nokia an no Outstanding Windows phones,Hope the Old Employees at Nokia can do what they have done with Meego step in an take Symbian over an show to Mr Elop that people still prefer Symbian more than Windows
42. pegasso (Posts: 285; Member since: 27 Nov 2011)
here's Nokia's response:

45. mak007 (Posts: 2; Member since: 12 Oct 2012)
increased piracy of premium apps and games by ..fanclub is big factor of symbian end so loyal customers stop piracy buy licensed apps and games this might encourage nokia to furthermore develop platform and give us more quality updates..

HP Scandal Part 2: Mark Hurd and the Porn Star "Marketing Consultant"
UPDATE: January 3, 2012: The June 2010 letter to Mark Hurd from Jodie Fisher's attorney (Gloria Allred) detailing Fisher's allegations of sexual harassment against Hurd was made public December 31, 2011 after a federal judge ruled the letter would not violate Hurd's privacy rights. Hurd joined Oracle September 6, 2010 as president.
The news about disgraced former HP Chairman and CEO Mark Hurd is worse than we were led to believe when the scandal broke August 6, 2010 and it raises questions about why HP's board didn't fire him for cause rather than agree to a large severance package.
Hurd was forced to resign for violating HP's Standards of Business Practice. As was covered in a previous column, HP's board was notified that Hurd was being sued for sexual harassment by a marketing consultant he'd hired. The board launched an investigation which did not find evidence to support the sexual harassment claim, but did find Hurd had a conflict of interest with the consultant that he didn't disclose; in addition, HP said he misused company assets and failed to maintain accurate expense reports in his dealings with the consultant.
On August 8, 2010, the marketing consultant came forward to reveal her identity. She is actress Jodie Fisher, who has worked in soft porn movies and real estate, but – notably – not marketing.
As is to be expected, the instantaneous resources of the internet have made available a photo and video gallery of Fisher's sex kitten career in movies and TV, a career that could hardly have been unknown to Hurd when he hired her. Her role for him apparently was to make introductions at "CEO Summits" in various parts of the world; Hurd would speak and then the two of them would have dinner afterward.
It also became known August 8 that Hurd had settled the lawsuit with Fisher on Thursday, August 5, the day before he resigned. Fisher has said that there was no sexual relationship. So it is unclear on what grounds she sued or Hurd settled. Her two-year contract with the CEO's office had ended in 2009.
Whatever his motives for engaging Fisher, they apparently had nothing to do with seeing the potential risks to HP or safeguarding shareholder interest or company reputation. HP stock fell 10 percent August 6 after news of his departure from HP became public, which represented a loss of billions of dollars to shareholders. Hurd has created a distraction for HP they can ill afford. The company said August 8 they were no longer going to comment publicly on him.
Hurd's legacy of turnaround prowess is now mired in self-sabotage, a reputation squandered.

WE LOVE LAKE ELMO began in early 2015 as over 200 concerned citizens came together at the Lake Elmo Inn Event Center to protest the council majority's (Fliflet, Smith, and Lundgren) decision to fire City Administrator Dean Zuleger. http://www.twincities.com/2015/03/18/lake-elmo-residents-pack-meeting-call-for-administrators-rehiring/ You may remember "WE PROTEST COUNCIL VOTE", almost 900 signatures on a petition, and "COUNCIL IS TYRANNY OF THE MAJORITY". The council majority had a temporary change of heart but ultimately forced Mr. Zuleger to resign. Unfortunately eight additional city hall staff members resigned and the dysfunction at city hall has continued to escalate. Decisions are being made by the council majority (sometimes ignoring the recommendations of the "experts") that put your property values, taxes, and quality of life at risk and threaten the fiscal underpinnings of the city. So, it's critical that we all take a more active role in understanding what is going on in our city government. We will advocate for collaborative leadership from members of the city council resulting in a functional government characterized by Transparency, Civility, and Fiscal Responsibility.
The mission of WE LOVE LAKE ELMO is to engage the community in a grassroots effort to bring about lasting change in the way the Lake Elmo city government functions. We are grateful for the support of the many residents and members of the business community, who share our desire for a return to a functional city government. Supporters include Craig Knoll, Diane Madson Knoll, Molly Brendmoen, Bryan Butler, Dale Dorschner, Dick Wier, Pam and Jess Hartley, Barry and Kathy Weeks, Tucker Pearce, Wally Nelson, Don and Bonnie Klatt, Larry Weiss, Mike and Kathy Reeves.
The purpose of this website is to provide information to the Lake Elmo community regarding the current state of their city government. It is critical that residents have access to news reports, data, facts, and real life examples so they can judge for themselves the impact of council actions! WE LOVE LAKE ELMO is an advocacy group and is not a political committee. Contributors to this website include: Diane Madson Knoll, Kathy Weeks, Kathy Reeves, and Mike Reeves.

If you know me, you know that I am a true makeup junkie; from drugstore products to high-end brands, I love it all! If I could walk around with my entire beauty collection stuffed into my cosmetic bag I would, but unfortunately that's just not possible! So, today we're taking a dive into our make up bag and digging up the basic makeup essentials. These items are the fundamentals of every cosmetic bag we pack in our purse- the basic makeup essentials every woman MUST own! (Ahem, if you are super overwhelmed with narrowing down everything in your beauty bag, I have a great guide to simplifying your makeup bag.)
5 Basic Makeup Essentials Every Woman Needs to Survive
1. Mascara- Mascara is my #1, can't live without it, gotta have it, makeup obsession! With just one swipe of mascara, a woman's eyes are instantly awake and open. Mascara adds length, volume, thickness and dimension. On those days when you only have 10 minutes to leave the house, swipe a few coats on and you're good to go! There are SO many formulas and brush types to choose from, but Cover Girl LashBlast Mascara is my forever obsession!
2. Moisturizer with SPF- It is SO important for every woman to moisturize and take care of your skin. Every day, I start my beauty routine with a moisturizer containing SPF. Using this will replenish any dryness and protect you from harmful rays of the sun. Try using a tinted moisturizer- it will add a touch of color while still moisturizing your skin! I especially like a tinted moisturizer over the hot summer months, when foundation is just too heavy. My fav is Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 20.
3. Multi-Purpose Makeup Stick- A makeup stick is an amazing investment and a great addition to any cosmetic bag. I am obsessed with these, simply because they can do so much! A makeup stick can act as a blush, an eyeshadow, a highlighter and a lipstick- all at once! When I'm running late (which is most of the time), this one beauty product is my savior. I love NARS The Multiple in Orgasm– the perfect color for EVERY woman's skin tone.
4. Tinted Lip Balm- Every woman needs one, an everyday lip color in her purse at all times. A color that is neutral with a tint, adding the perfect pop to your pout! I love a lip color that is a pinkish-nude and will work for day or night. A good tinted lip balm is perfect, because it hydrates your lips while adding a touch of color! I usually carry way too many lip products in my bag, but right now I'm loving Bare Minerals Loud & Clear Lip Sheer.
5. Concealer- A concealer is a cosmetic bag staple! A good concealer will reduce and conceal nasty blemishes, mask dark under-eye circles, and hide any other skin imperfections we might have. Concealers can come in many shapes and sizes, but I prefer to use a stick/wand one. My favorite (and it's a beauty bargain) is the L'Oreal True Match Super-Blendable Concealer. It is light-weight, non-greasy and easy to apply. Beauty tip: A concealer can also double as a highlighter!
So ladies, these are the basic makeup essentials every woman must own! These products can transform your look and are essential for every cosmetic bag. Do you have any products to add to our list? If you're pregnant, and want to make sure you have more natural or organic products, here's a great list for those, too.
Fashionably Yours,

Gracious Virgin, Lady of America, victory will come to those who put their trust in the strength of your arms. Deliver your faithful servant from every kind of trouble. You are joy to the distressed, strength to the oppressed, nourishment for those who despair. You console all who feel estranged. You visit and heal all the sick and comfort all the depressed. You are heavenly assistance to the lonely and a special protection to those who honor you.
Receive again, today my dedication to you, as Our Lady of America. May your name and fame and your lobe be made known through me. As I bring Americans to the knowledge and love of you and your Divine Son, place me under the wings of your protection, for you O Mother of God, are my hope.
Saint Ann's has the proud distinction of being the Shrine Church of the Holy Icon of Our Lady of America. Commissioned in 1972, by then Pastor Fr. Albert Gorayeb, the icon took 3 years to complete. Our Lady is adorned with 2,300 precious stones and silver gifted by various people. Fr. Al dedicated the Icon of Our Lady to bless the American people, hence the title Our Lady of America.
On June 27, 1976 Patriarch Maximos V Hakim and Archbishop Joseph Tawil solemnly blessed and consecrated the Icon, as a special blessing to America and to all those who pray before Her.
The icon is property of the Melkite Diocese of America, but will always be housed at St. Ann Melkite Catholic Church. The icon has gone on pilgrimage to parishes that request Her presence but She always returned home to St. Ann, as if Mary, the daughter was returning to Ann the Mother.
Through the Prayers of the Mother of God, O Savior, save us!

We've all been there. We have mastered procrastination. We need to get something done and we put it off. We want to do it, but we just can't make ourselves do it. As a result, we feel lazy, unproductive, or just plain slovenly.
When we procrastinate, we should look at WHY we are procrastinating.
There is more to procrastination than just being lazy. Lazy, as a permanent lifestyle, is not really in our genes. If our ancestors the cave people were lazy, they probably got eaten by a predator. The ones who got up and ran from danger are the ones who survived.
Author James Altucher has a unique way of looking at procrastination.
"Procrastination is your body telling you that you need to back off a bit and think more about what you are doing."
That is an interesting thought. Why do we REALLY procrastinate? Here are some reasons:
- You are doing work that is not your forte and you need to delegate it.
- You need to think through an idea and improve on it before you take action.
- Your idea or plan is just plain bad or wrong. Therefore, you shouldn't do it.
- You need to learn something more before you can take action.
- You don't enjoy it. Can you exchange tasks with someone else?
- You don't like the client. Can you fix the situation?
- You need to take a mental or physical break first.
- You are a perfectionist. Just get the first step done.
I find myself procrastinating often. I put off a technical task that needs to be done, and I now realize I need to learn more about how to do it. I put off vacuuming because I don't like to do it. I bought my husband a Swiffer and a Shark vacuum cleaner. He won't admit it, but I think he secretly loves to use these tools. Problem solved.
I also put off cleaning my windows until they are so dirty I can barely see through them. When I thought about why I don't just do it, I pictured the task. I need an entire Saturday when it isn't too hot or too sunny. I need a ladder and buckets, a squeegee, rags and a hose. I need to remove every window and vacuum out the ledges and wash both sides thoroughly and then replace them. That is going to take more than one day. I give up.
My perfectionism is chiming in here. Just get out a spray bottle and clean a window. Some things call for a B or even a C+ effort. It is still far better than a zero, which is what I would get if I do nothing.
When you procrastinate, think about why. Then see if you can find a solution to the problem. It just might help you to get things done.
And if you LOVE washing windows, come on over to my house. Maybe we can exchange tasks.
My best,
James Altucher, Chose Yourself, 2013, Create Space Independent Publishing

Visit Ireland, and you may never see, touch or eat a potato the same way again.
Predictably, I found the tuber abundant on menus across the country, from village pubs to fine-dining establishments. But, as scrumptious as my favourite potato dishes are, by my fourth day in Ireland I was craving alternative carbs: rice, pasta… anything. There's only so much mashed potato a food lover like myself can get excited about, you know? It's overkill, to be honest.
But the tragedy is that the potato precipitated a pivotal event in Ireland's history that did, in fact, kill.
The History
Brought to the country from South America in the 16th century, the humble spud was a blessing for the poor. It's inexpensive, filling, easy to grow and store, and a source of essential nutrients. By the 18th century, it had become the dominant—if not only—food source for rural families.
But when a fungus-like disease struck the potato crops, making them inedible, the consequences were devastating. Ireland became an abyss of human misery. The death toll was staggering: During the Great Famine from 1846 to 1850-52 (the final year varies by source), over one million people died from starvation or disease.
"I saw the dying, the living, and the dead, lying indiscriminately upon the same floor," reported James Mahoney, an artist from Cork.
But there was one place that, inconceivably, became a source of nourishment. Kilmainham Gaol stands as a sombre reminder of Ireland's dark and turbulent past. A Dublin jail and now must-visit museum, it provided some relief to desperate women and children who, on the edge of starvation, would steal loaves of bread in the hopes of imprisonment and, therefore, access to shelter and meagre food rations.
But if life outside was hell, Kilmainham Gaol was a purgatory. With five to six inmates confined to a cell designed for one, it was squalid and overpopulated. For those who couldn't be squeezed in, there was nowhere else to sleep but on the dingy floors of the dark corridors.
At least another million of Ireland's population emigrated, many to North America, to escape the famine. But for those who braved the seas, the "coffin ships", as the name suggests, were wretched prisons in themselves. Thousands perished during the one- to three-month journey across the Atlantic.
In the face of disease at every turn, a skin-and-bone population withering away and dead children left on the side of the road by parents too weak to bury them, do such choices seem like choices at all?
By the end of the famine, it's estimated that the population of Ireland fell by 25 percent.
But the legacy left by the crisis wasn't just demographic. So significant was the potato famine in changing the country's sociopolitical, cultural and linguistic landscape that it's now an intrinsic aspect of folk legend—for both the native Irish and the diaspora.
When it comes to travel, it's been my long-held belief that food is essential to our understanding of the cultures we wish to explore. While I admit it didn't take long for my taste buds to experience potato fatigue in Ireland, by the end of my visit, I learned to embrace them—and I returned home with a new perspective on a seemingly simple food that, in reality, is rich in symbolic meaning. In the Irish memory, the potato has been both a blessing and deadly curse. And, while the country has healed, it hasn't forgotten.
Today, the Irish aren't as dependent on the humble spud as they once were, but it still persists as a dominant staple in their diet. Two dishes are worthy of mention.
Champ, the name for creamy mashed potato mixed with green onion, is a traditional comfort food and prevalent across the country.
But I'm especially grateful for the introduction to what has become one of my favourite potato dishes: boxty. I had these pillowy potato dumplings with cubed corned beef, proudly served by The Boxty House, at a travel media event. While I didn't pay their Dublin restaurant a visit, you can be sure that I'll make it my first stop if I return. If you want to sample all three types of boxty (baked, boiled and fried), look—and eat—no further.
Mashed, boiled, baked, fried, roasted—the Irish kitchen has reinvented the beloved tuber in a myriad of ways. So integral it is to Ireland's national identity that it's now honoured and celebrated each year on National Potato Day.
So the next time you fluff that baked potato with your fork, you may want to consider what it signifies to others elsewhere. It represents the struggles—and strength—of an entire nation. And it certainly deserves more respect than I gave it all these years.

Up to 15 minutes away for no additional charge
EducationI graduated from the University of Michigan-Dearborn in 2010 with a Bachelors of Science in Chemistry and a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology. During my time at the University of Michigan-Dearborn I did undergraduate research for the Chemistry department and was treasurer of the Chemistry Club.
Currently I substitute teach middle school and high school in math and science subjects. I was a long term substitute teacher for physical science, biology, physics and chemistry classes.
ExperienceWhile attending the University of Michigan-Dearborn, I was treasurer of the chemistry club and was a research student in Analytical Chemistry. Immediately after graduating in December 2010, I started working as an analytical chemist in industry in January 2011.
I am the perfect tutor for a student who needs concepts explained slowly, clearly, and in an easy-to-understand way. I have patience that comes from several years of experience tutoring various math and science subjects to high school and college students.
I love to encourage students who believe "they are just not good at math or science" because the subjects discussed in class seem daunting and confusing. I motivate my students to push past their frustrations, to practice, practice, and practice until they have the skills and confidence to conquer their subject without fear. After all, practice makes perfect.
As a former University of Michigan-Dearborn student, I recognize the importance of great study skills. I help students to find and strengthen their most effective note-taking, organization, time-management and memorization techniques. I emphasize strategies such as sorting papers in binders with tab dividers, keeping track of assignments with a personal calendar, highlighting or color-coding readings/notes, studying before "the night before", drawing diagrams, creating mnemonics and making flashcards. Organization is key! I enjoy working with students and aid in achieving their goals.
HobbiesAfter spending 2 years in industry, my husband and I discussed our future, so I quit to focus on our family. I am currently a stay- at-home mom with some free time to tutor and I have intentions of going back to school for certification in secondary education to teach Chemistry. I love spending time with family and friends. In my spare time I like working on arts and crafts such as cross stitching.
Preferred Subjects
Chemistry, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, AP Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, College Algebra, General Chemistry, Trigonometry, Study Skills And Organization, Science, ACT Math, 9th Grade math, 10th Grade math, 11th Grade math, 12th Grade math, 7th Grade math, 6th Grade math, 8th Grade Science, 6th Grade Science, 7th Grade Science, 8th Grade math, Math

This recipe is private
Russ Myers
Pesto is traditionally prepared in a marble mortar with a wooden pestle. First, garlic and pine nuts are placed in the mortar and reduced to a cream, then the washed and dried basil leaves are added with coarse salt and ground to a creamy consistency. Only then is a mix of Parmigiano-Reggiano and Pecorino added. To help incorporate the cheese a little extra-virgin olive oil is added. In a tight jar (or simply in an air-tight plastic container), covered by a layer of extra-virgin olive oil, pesto can last in the refrigerator up to a week, and can be frozen for later use.

How is there a lack of communication between the daughters and mothers in The Joy Luck Club?
- print Print
- list Cite
Clearly the lack of communication between the daughters and mothers in this excellent novel is based upon the culture clash that occurs between them. The second generation immigrants, the daughters who are born in America, are profoundly ambivalent about their Chinese heritage and background that means so much to their mothers. In a sense, they want their Chinese background to be a private part of their lives that remains at home, as is testified by their embarrassment when their mothers speak in broken English.
Of course, the mothers look upon this from a very different perspective and fight to maintain the value of Chinese tradition in both their lives and in the lives of their daughters. The mothers want their daughters to flourish in their new home of America, but also to remember their origins and develop a distinct Chinese-American character.
It is this clash in perspective based on culture that leads to the lack of communication between the daughters and mothers, as both struggle to see the perspective of the other group. The daughters feel that their mothers are incapable of understanding what life is like for them, resulting in broken communication and damaged relationships. You can look at any one of the mother-daughter relationships to see this, but perhaps when Waverly insults her mother about the pride she takes in her daughter's chess success would be a good example to look at.

The Walking Dead opens to the townspeople preparing for a party and then we see a dark secret of the Governors (The Gov)… the he's keeping his daughter around… his undead zombie daughter. Not sure if that's sick, sad or…?
Back at the Prison: We watch Rick trying to process the new development of Lori's death. And the biggest issue is that they need to figure out is finding formula. But Rick seems a bit miffed and picks up an axe and heads into the prison on a mission.
Gov: Today is celebration in the compound remembering how far the survivors have come. Michonne uses this time to retrieve her sword and finds a journal of sorts what what look like hash marks. Lots of hash marks. We also learn that The Gov's science guy is needing power for an experiment.
After Michonne gets her sword, she's exploring and finds a collection of walkers and has some sword practice with them. We get to see how good she is.
But she gets caught. And during her "talking to" from The Gov, he says she would fit in. She doesn't seem too keen on the idea. He chats with Andrea about the situation, convincing her to chat with Michonne.
Prison: Glenn goes to check on Rick down in the prison halls and Rick seems to be doing his own mindless version of a living walker. (He's still processing Lori's passing.)
Daryl and Maggie head out to find formula and come across a school and find what they're looking for…for now.
Gov: Michonne and Andrea try to leave and Merle intercepts them… but it was a test that Merle and the gate pass. But despite Andrea, Michonne leaves.
Prison: Daryl and Maggie return, and one of the most shocking moments in all of AMC's The Walking Dead takes place…
Daryl walks up and calms the baby and feeds the little girl formula. (I did not see that coming!)
Rick finds where Lori was and finds a walker with a very full belly and kills it, then cuts into him over and over. (He's still processing.)
Gov's Camp: And we finally see what the party at The Gov's place… their own WWE session with Merle and some other guy having a free-for-all in a Walker Gladiator Arena of sorts. The Gov thinks he's teaching his people to not be afraid of the walkers. Hmm… but in this arena, they've pulled all the walkers teeth.
Prison: Daryl pays his respects to Lori's grave while Rick is… still processing. And near where he's zoning out, the phone rings.
He's really zoning out… (You'll have to trust me on that one. You'll see next week.)
It's obvious that Rick is having huge issues and is not processing the death of Lori. They've lost people and he's been one to bolster folks through their losses, but he's wigged out on his (Or Shane's) daughter and isn't even trying to help feed her.
We've seen an entirely new dark or sad side of The Governor and his twisted form of entertainment that his villagers seem to accept willingly. There might be more to worry about that meets the eye.
Michonne is back outside the compound. Hopefully making a bee-line straight away from that dark place of curiosities.
Sneak Peek at a scene from next week:

Five Signs An Elder Needs Help
Most people have fond thoughts about Grandma and Grandpa sitting at home relaxing and enjoying retirement. When we see our elderly relatives on holidays or birthdays we are so busy enjoying our visit that we might not see some of the signs that your elder needs help in their day-to-day life.
If you have experienced this you are not alone. Most people never know their elder needs help until a medical crisis arises. Statistics show it is usually a fall that causes the crisis. According to the CDC, about 2.5 millions Americans are treated for fall injuries in the emergency department each year. 700,000 of those people were hospitalized as a result of a fall.
Obviously falling can adversely effect an elder's quality of life but there are other factors caused by the normal aging process that can drastically diminish quality of life-like malnutrition. According to the National Institutes of Health,"Prevalence rates have been estimated for the general hospital population to be between 11% to 44%, but this rises in elderly groups to 29%–61%". It seems malnutrition is another risk factor common among the elderly.
Now that we have established some of the risks associated with aging, lets look at some of the warning signs the an elder needs help as a result.
Increasingly Poor Hygiene
An unordinary disheveled and messy appearance is not part of the normal aging process. If your elder seems "not as together" as they normally are or "wearing dirty clothes" it could be a sign that they need daily help accomplishing Activities of Daily Living. ADL's as they are called among professional caregivers are those tasks you need to do every day to maintain good hygiene, nutrition and daily hygiene. No one chooses to be messy or have an odor about them. They might just need a little help from a family member or home health care provider.
Messy House
Not everyone is a great housekeeper. Cleanliness is often in the eye of the beholder. If you ask my wife she will tell you I am a slob but I see it differently. This warning sign goes beyond the subjective definition of cleanliness and focuses on the type of cleanliness necessary to maintain good health.
If you notice that grandma or grandpa allows garbage to pile up around the house or piles of books, papers and debris in major traffic areas then your elder needs help daily picking up around the house. A neglected pet can also be a clear sign that your elder is having trouble handling daily household chores.
Again this is not a normal sign of aging. Instead it is a clear sign that your elder needs help and has an increased danger of experiencing a health care emergency.
Expired Food In The Refrigerator
Next time you are over at your elder's house look in the fridge. Is there curdling milk, moldy or unwrapped leftovers? Is the canned food well past its expiration date? This could be a sign that your elder is having trouble preparing food on a daily basis. It also could mean they are not eating as a result of a poor appetite which could be caused by another health problem.
If you see expired food, try to remove it right away and replace it with fresh food. Have a conversation with your elder about how much they are eating and the challenges they are experiencing when preparing food. Ask them how you can help.
Unexplained Bruising
While it is true that and elderly person's skin gets more fragile with aging, bruising is not a normal occurrence. Bruising could be the result of a recent fall.
It could also be the result of abuse.
It is vital that is you see a bruise on your elderly family member that you ask how they got it. They may not tell you how they were injured for fear of embarrassment but you should persist. Whether it is the result of a fall or abusive behavior, you should take action to protect them from further injury.
Not As Talkative
Some members of your family might comment that "Grandpa isn't as talkative as he normally is." Many folks think elderly folks don't talk as much because they are hard of hearing or grumpy. While that may be true for a very few, it can also be a sign your elder needs help.
Dementia can occur as a result of a chronic disease like Alzheimer's but can also be caused by a sudden change in health like a stroke or infection. It is easy to overlook confusion in the elderly as a natural part of aging. That said if you notice a change in an elderly person's ability to communicate you should encourage them to see a doctor as soon as possible. It could be the result of a new disease process or the acceleration of a chronic illness.
How To Talk About Getting Help
This can be a very difficult conversation for both the elder and their family member. On one side is the elder who doesn't want to burden family with their problems or embarrass themselves by admitting to failing health. On the other is the concerned family member who just wants their elder to be safe and healthy.
Don't let the fear of embarrassment stop you from having this conversation with your elder. Remember they need help and don't know how to get it. Stay patient with them, Talk gently to them. Try to put yourself in their shoes. Approach them with empathy and respect but most of all stay persistent. You could be the only thing standing between getting them the help they need or having your next visit with them in the hospital.
