When I wake up in the morning, I hear her. Screaming, howling, wailing, "NO!! NO!! NOOOO!!!!!" She continues her protest through all my waking hours. This barrage comes from a pitiful figure who lays prostrate on the ground by my husband's grave, her face pressed into the soil made damp by her tears. She is utterly defeated by an all-consuming grief. Locked in a state of disbelief and unmitigated devastation, she beats her chest as if to mold the fragments of her shattered heart back into a functioning organ. She is my Inner Widow, and she lives in the space somewhere between my head and heart.
Sweet Sassyfats
Not just another pretty face.

Valentine's Day: The 25th Year
Picture It: Valentine's Day, 1990. At the beginning of the school day, a very sweet boy gave me three roses as a token of friendship. We were in 11th grade that year, and we had been friends since 3rd. He gave roses to other girls in our little circle of friends that day, so my roses weren't fraught with any romantic notions, no awkward "Will you be my Valentine" stuff.
|Whew! Amirite?
Little did he know that I'd been interested in him as more than a friend for a long time. I was simply too scared to say anything about it. I was afraid of ruining our friendship or making things weird with our circle of friends. I was especially afraid that he didn't feel the same way. I was even more afraid that he did.
Fast-forward to the end of the school day. After carrying the roses with me all day and answering like a bajillion questions about them, I could not ignore my feelings any more.
|REO Speedwagon Would Understand
When I got home from school I did what any self-respecting 16-year-old girl would do: I ran to the wall-mounted kitchen phone (next to my pet dinosaur's cage) and immediately called my BFF.
Me: Eau-mi-gawd, I like totally have to tell you something!
BFF: Eaukeh, tell me!
Me: I like, totally like Mike.
BFF: You mean you like, like-like him?
Me: Totally.
In unison: SQUEEEE!
But there was still the little problem that I was too scared to say anything to him about it. Luckily, my BFF was easily recruited to the task of nudging him in my direction. The next afternoon, he called me to say, "What is with BFF today? She keeps telling me I should ask you out." The conversation blossomed from there, and we shyly confessed having "feelings" for each other. Like, totally.
A few days later, we had our first official date. What we did not
know then is that a movie at Laurel Lakes 9 and dinner at Pizza Villa would be
the last first date either of us would have. Our shy confessions of "feelings"
(like, totally) grew over the years into a deep and enduring love. From a foundation of nervous giggles and sweaty-palmed hand holding, we would go on to get
married, build a life together in a sleepy little town by the Chesapeake Bay, and
bring two amazing new people into the world.
|Seriously, how could these two kids NOT end up together?
That's not to say it was all lollipops and rainbows. God knows we had our battles over the years, both petty and epic. But through it all, we always managed to hash it out, come to a mutual understanding, and confirm that we still loved each other – even in moments when we didn't particularly like each other.
|Storybook romances can be messy sometimes.
On a side note, it turns out my early fears about making things weird in our little circle of friends were unfounded. To this day, they are my closest friends in the world. They celebrated with us at our wedding. They happily welcomed our babies to the world. And more recently, they stood with me as we watched the funeral director close his casket. They held me as I wept for my Sweet Boy, and they took care of me while I crumbled under the weight of my grief even though they had just lost one of their best friends.
This is the first Valentine's Day in 25 years that Mike won't give me roses. It's not the flowers I'll miss. It's his presence. His vitality. His devotion. His dedication to just being the best version of himself he could be. Hopefully some memories will bubble to the surface that make me smile. After 25 years, I have so very many to cherish.

In Loving Memory: Michael Anthony Salek
Miracle Man. I'm still waiting to wake up from this nightmare.
When I last posted in this space, it was to flip the big ol' double bird to Arnold Chiari Malformation. Mike was getting ready to go in for decompression surgery. He was supposed to heal up and come home to resume his normal life. Unbeknownst to us, "normal" would go on permanent hiatus.

An Open Letter to Arnold Chiari Malformation
Hello, Arnold.
Didn't think I'd see you back again so soon. It doesn't seem very much time has passed since you last turned my world upside down. In fact, I didn't think you'd dare show your face around here for another ten years or more.
It's not the first time I've been wrong.

Honoring Carl: Out of the Darkness
Carl ended his long and heartbreaking battle with schizoaffective bipolar disorder. This summer, exactly one year and one day after Carl's funeral, Sweet Little Sister and her teammates - the aptly named Iron Maidens - will participate in the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's Out of the Darkness overnight walk in Philadelphia.
Instead of creating a long and rambling post about it, I'll let Sweet Little Sister's words convey what suicide leaves in its wake, and how the AFSP is working to prevent future suicides.
Yes, I am linking to a fundraising page. If you are inspired to donate, please do. Every little bit helps. But even if you don't donate for whatever reason, please read what she wrote. Mental illness is very real. And it is very deadly. And raising awareness is as important as raising dollars for research - so pass the word along.

JohnJohn Tells About Jesus, the Son of God Christ Comes to the World 1 1In the beginning there was the Word.[A] The Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning. 3All things were made by him, and nothing was made without him. 4In him there was life, and that life was the light of all people. 5The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overpowered it. 6There was a man named John[B] who was sent by God. 7He came to tell people the truth about the Light so that through him all people could hear about the Light and believe. 8John was not the Light, but he came to tell people the truth about the Light. 9The true Light that gives light to all was coming into the world! 10The Word was in the world, and the world was made by him, but the world did not know him. 11He came to the world that was his own, but his own people did not accept him. 12But to all who did accept him and believe in him he gave the right to become children of God. 13They did not become his children in any human way— by any human parents or human desire. They were born of God. 14The Word became a human and lived among us. We saw his glory— the glory that belongs to the only Son of the Father— and he was full of grace and truth. 15John tells the truth about him and cries out, saying, "This is the One I told you about: 'The One who comes after me is greater than I am, because he was living before me.' " 16Because he was full of grace and truth, from him we all received one gift after another. 17The law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18No one has ever seen God. But God the only Son is very close to the Father,[C] and he has shown us what God is like. John Tells People About Jesus 19Here is the truth John[D] told when the Jews in Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him, "Who are you?" 20John spoke freely and did not refuse to answer. He said, "I am not the Christ." 21So they asked him, "Then who are you? Are you Elijah?" [E] He answered, "No, I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" [F] they asked. He answered, "No." 22Then they said, "Who are you? Give us an answer to tell those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?" 23John told them in the words of the prophet Isaiah: "I am the voice of one calling out in the desert: 'Make the road straight for the Lord.' " Isaiah 40:3 24Some Pharisees who had been sent asked John: 25"If you are not the Christ or Elijah or the Prophet, why do you baptize people?" 26John answered, "I baptize with water, but there is one here with you that you don't know about. 27He is the One who comes after me. I am not good enough to untie the strings of his sandals." 28This all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan River, where John was baptizing people. 29The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him. John said, "Look, the Lamb of God,[G] who takes away the sin of the world! 30This is the One I was talking about when I said, 'A man will come after me, but he is greater than I am, because he was living before me.' 31Even I did not know who he was, although I came baptizing with water so that the people of Israel would know who he is." 323332-33Then John said, "I saw the Spirit come down from heaven in the form of a dove and rest on him. Until then I did not know who the Christ was. But the God who sent me to baptize with water told me, 'You will see the Spirit come down and rest on a man; he is the One who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.' 34I have seen this happen, and I tell you the truth: This man is the Son of God." The First Followers of Jesus 35The next day John[H] was there again with two of his followers. 36When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, "Look, the Lamb of God!" [I] 37The two followers heard John say this, so they followed Jesus. 38When Jesus turned and saw them following him, he asked, "What are you looking for?" They said, "Rabbi, where are you staying?" ("Rabbi" means "Teacher." ) 39He answered, "Come and see." So the two men went with Jesus and saw where he was staying and stayed there with him that day. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon. 40One of the two men who followed Jesus after they heard John speak about him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. 41The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and say to him, "We have found the Messiah." ("Messiah" means "Christ." ) 42Then Andrew took Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas." ("Cephas" means "Peter." [J]) 43The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, "Follow me." 44Philip was from the town of Bethsaida, where Andrew and Peter lived. 45Philip found Nathanael and told him, "We have found the man that Moses wrote about in the law, and the prophets also wrote about him. He is Jesus, the son of Joseph, from Nazareth." 46But Nathanael said to Philip, "Can anything good come from Nazareth?" Philip answered, "Come and see." 47As Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, he said, "Here is truly an Israelite. There is nothing false in him." 48Nathanael asked, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered, "I saw you when you were under the fig tree, before Philip told you about me." 49Then Nathanael said to Jesus, "Teacher, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel." 50Jesus said to Nathanael, "Do you believe simply because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than that." 51And Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, you will all see heaven open and 'angels of God going up and coming down' [K] on the Son of Man."

Beholding God in the Face of Jesus Christ Statements that the early church leaders made concerning the centrality of Jesus (in the attached verses). "He that hath Christ, being a pauper, hath all things; and he that hath not Christ, possessing a thousand worlds, possesses nothing for real happiness and joy." C. H. Spurgeon "My soul, never be satisfied with a shadowy Christ. I cannot know Christ through another person's brains. I cannot love him with another man's heart, and I cannot see him with another mans eyes...I am so afraid of living a second-hand religion. Lord save us from having borrowed communion. No, I must know him myself. O God, let me not be deceived in this...I must know him on my own account." C. H. Spurgeon

"These invitations are wonderful. The quality is excellent and our guests are loving them. We wanted something fun, not stuffy. Beautiful and classy, but down to earth. These fit the bill perfectly! The process went very smoothly except the delivery was a bit delayed."
"Beautiful design printed on a quality textured paper stock. I fell in love with this card in lilac. So classy, so beautiful. It felt right...for all you brides, you know what I mean!"
"I honestly cannot say enough about the customer service, customization process, and this beautiful invitation! I was SO nervous to order my wedding invitations online, but I will be telling all my friends to order from wedding paper divas! I was able to COMPLETLY customize my invitations and RSVP's to have the exact format and look I was wanting. Upgrading to the thicker paper is completely worth it for the price! I am beyond happy."
"These perfectly fit the update we were looking for on the traditional black and white invitation. Wedding Paper Divas did a great job editing the wording to reflect my husband's late parents, and customizing the back. We tied them together with Tartan plaid ribbons to add a little extra holiday pop for our December wedding. We received so many compliments and couldn't have been happier!"
"This card is truly beautiful and exactly how I imagined it. I got the navy blue version. The paper was pristine as well as the printing. I had some edits throughout the process and the customer service was great! They were attentive and had very quick response times which I appreciated. Have used this service a few times now and enjoyed each time!"

Two tools aim to provide a more accurate estimate of available search referral traffic.
Content optimization remains an important focus of any SEO (define) campaign. Because you're probably adding content to your site or blog constantly, there are always new opportunities to improve overall visibility on search engines. But to be found for the right words on any site, you must undergo regular, extensive keyword research.
You must understand the relationships between different words people use when they search for your goods and services, and how to bake these phrases into your site's content. In my last column, "Content Optimization: Keyword Suggestion Tools," I examined how to build out a keyword list and some common, typically free, keyword suggestion tools, such as Quintura, Google Suggest, Yahoo Search Suggest, Google Trends, and the Google AdWords Keyword Tool.
Keyword suggestion tools help you understand what words are used in search queries and what phrases are associated with those words. Keyword analytical tools provide some measure of keyword suggestion functionality, as well as the ability to understand the competition levels for specific search terms. More importantly, keyword analytics tools help you determine the relative size of the search referral market associated with specific keywords and phrases.
Yet many differences exist between keyword analysis tools and keyword suggestion tools. For example, Google tool data is compiled from the Google Search Network of sites, while subscription-based keyword analysis tools such as Keyword Discovery or Wordtracker use much broader databases of information that can be sliced, diced, and refined in many different ways.
In Wordtracker, keyword data is compiled from major metacrawlers, such as MetaCrawler and Dogpile. When performing keyword research in Wordtracker, the program "counts" the number of times a particular keyword or phrase has appeared in its database of 316,558,816 words. For example, a count of 150 means that a particular word has appeared 150 times in the Wordtracker database over a 100-day average.
Wordtracker contends that metacrawlers search data matches search queries of the major search engines very closely, and that the data isn't skewed from software robots that continually check Web site rankings and pay-per-bid positions. This is an interesting point because Keyword Discovery uses a global premium database that contains over 4.4 billion searches based purely on user panel data to avoid the same types of data distortion.
Both tools strive to not inflate keyword search data in order to provide you with a more accurate estimate of available search referral traffic, even though the original sources of their data sets are very different. Both tools also provide a multitude of ways to slice and dice their data. Let's put some numbers side-by-side to exemplify just how different some of these tools are.
To keep things simple, let's look at the keyword forecasts for "dog food" from the Google AdWords Suggestion Tool, Keyword Discovery, and Wordtracker. (Note: All results are for what can be considered a broad match on U.S. search or user data.)
On average, Google predicts there will be some 1,395 searches for "dog food" each day. Keyword Discovery anticipates only 1,088 searches on a daily basis this time of the year, and Wordtracker suggests the potential search referral market for "dog food" is more than twice that number. Notice the connotation about Keyword Discovery's daily prediction for this time of the year? Well, that's where Keyword Discovery slathers on some great features because its algorithm as applied to its data set can account for seasonality.
When performing keyword research in Keyword Discovery you can review the seasonality of words and phrases used in search queries on a historical basis, monthly estimates or as part of an annual trend, as well as provide insight into search engine market share.
Toward this end, Keyword Discovery and Wordtracker data sets can be readily sliced and diced to estimate only Google search referral traffic, or any other major engine for that matter. In our example, the Wordtracker daily estimate for Google's "dog food" search queries is 1,043, or 47 percent of the Daily Prediction data. In Keyword Discovery, however, Google has about 67 percent of its Average Daily estimate, so Keyword Discovery predicts that 738 "dog food" searches will be made in Google each day.
While this might not appear to be a vast difference in search referral traffic, consider how the data translates to an average 30-day monthly prediction. Google AdWords predicts between 37,200 to 46,500 clicks for top-positioned ads for "dog food". Meanwhile, Keyword Discovery estimates there will be some 22,140 "dog food" searches this month, while Wordtracker projects about 31,290 "dog food" searches on average each month.
The accuracy of these estimates depends on your positioning, of course. You should always compare the actual data for top performing keywords against the predictions for a reality check.
Next time, I'll examine what the keyword analytics tools are referring to for the Keyword Effectiveness Index (KEI) and occurrence data.
In the meantime, remember that generally speaking, the number of searches performed for each keyword will be much higher in Google than Keyword Discovery and usually Wordtracker. That's because the Google AdWords Tool provides aggregated broadly matched totals by default, while Keyword Discovery and Wordtracker tend to be less motivated to sell you more ads that drive your bid pricing upward.
Either way, all of the data sets are relative. For starters, seek the most relevant, highly trafficked terms and phrases already reflected in your site's content. As we continue through the content optimization process, you should know that you're well on your way to achieving optimal results if you just put a little time into doing diligent keyword research.

The program presents health education on a variety of topics each week like eating less and exercising more and their impact on diabetes, high blood pressure or other disease. Historically, 95 percent of participants completing the program have improved their health in at least one indicator for chronic disease. As an example, losing weight can reduce blood pressure and lower the risk for diabetes.
The program participants form small teams. Each person each week sets a new simple health goal to work on. The team members support and encourage each other to achieve their goals. For added motivation, a friendly contest is held in which teams earn points and prizes for the goals they achieve.
"This seems to be working," states Beth Hayslip, Service Coordinator for St. Paul Trinity Community. "I am excited to see the residents who weren't active before walking and exercising. They are learning a lot about diet, stress and exercise and how those things impact their health."]]>
Graceworks provides residential and community services for older adults and persons who have disabilities or financial challenges, in more than 50 locations in southwestern Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky.
Participants learned more about Graceworks and enjoyed awards and prizes during a dinner following the golfing. Kelly Bergstrom, Services Manager for Graceworks Enhanced Living, told a story about a volunteer who formed a special bond with the residents of a particular Beavercreek group home.
Light of Christ Lutheran Church (Bob Emerson, Cliff Dungy, Mike Quigg, Bill Walker) won the Congregation Trophy. McGohan Brabender was the title sponsor of the event.]]>
Graceworks at Home Earns Four-Star Rating
Centerville, Ohio (July 20, 2015) – Graceworks at Home, home care by the experts at Bethany Village, is proud to announce a four-star rating by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The five-star system ranks quality measures. This is the first time CMS has ranked home care agencies on a five-star scale like nursing homes. With a four-star rating, Graceworks at Home exceeds both the state of Ohio and national averages. Home care agencies are judged on nine measured care practices and outcomes. The results are averaged to determine the star rating.
"We can attribute our four-star rating to outstanding employees who exemplify Faithful Caring," says Bonnie Smith, Administrator, Graceworks at Home. "Graceworks at Home is quick to respond to new clients, addressing their concerns and needs as soon as possible to prevent re- hospitalization and unnecessary trips to the emergency room. Staff members are experienced in home care and are comfortable in resolving escalated disease processes so the clients can remain safely in their homes."
According to Medicare.gov, the official website of Home Health Compare, most home healthcare agencies receive a 3-star rating.
Graceworks at Home offers both skilled nursing and therapy care services in addition to non-medical support services like housekeeping, meal preparation and medication reminders. Learn more about Graceworks at Home by visiting graceworksathome.org or call 937-436-7700.
CCCS helps 72-year-old senior save her home
June* (not client's actual name) recently went through a divorce which caused a lot of financial hardship, especially during her retirement years. She had to take a loan to buy her husband out of their mortgage in order to stay in her home. The loan amounted to about 50% of her retirement income. Seeking help, the 72-year-old turned to Consumer Credit Counseling Service (CCCS) in Springfield, Ohio. Once in touch with CCCS, she worked out a budget and a plan to pay back her debt. June's goal was to see if CCCS could help her lower her monthly mortgage payment. Due to the type of loan, changing the payment wasn't possible.
CCCS employee Rachel Klopfer has many years of experience as a credit counselor. As such, she wasn't deterred by the bank's refusal to alter the loan payments. Instead, she sprang into action, calling the bank several times to question the financial details of the loan. The lender eventually completed an analysis of June's escrow account and found the amount was too high and could be changed. June's age and income qualified her for the Homestead Exemption on property taxes, which was not properly included in the escrow calculation. This all worked in June's favor, and Rachel was able to reduce the monthly payments after all. In fact, June received a check for the escrow overage which she used to pay off a credit card.
But Rachel's assistance for her senior client did not stop there. She continued digging into other avenues to help her client with her home. Rachel noted many household repairs were needed on the home June was so desperately trying to keep. There were several electrical issues in the home and the furnace wasn't working properly and winter was coming. Rachel contacted Community Action Partnership for an application for CHIP funds to make necessary home repairs. June qualified for more than she had hoped, allowing her to replace her furnace, water heater, door and the old wiring.
Now, June is more comfortable in her home and better able to make the monthly mortgage payments. She attributes all of this to the caring counselors and CCCS.
Bill Serr, President and CEO of Graceworks Lutheran Services and Dr. Tom Henderson, Superintendent of Centerville schools, attended the event and are pictured with the students.
ITOP is both a Special Education and Career Technical Program for students with special needs ages 18-22. The ITOP curriculum provides students with opportunities for individualized career exploration, employability skills training, on the job training and transitional skills for independent living. The partnership with Bethany Village has been in place since 1995.
"Our partnership with the supervisors and staff of various departments across the Bethany Village Campus has enhanced the employability of ITOP students for over 20 years," states Judith Brothers, Job Training Coordinator for Centerville City Schools. "Students gain valuable experience in real world work environments on the Bethany campus that leads to competitive community employment and enhanced opportunities for independent living."
The partnership enhances the ITOP curriculum by providing on site job training experiences for students in:
As part of the evening's agenda, Bill Serr, President and CEO, addressed the delegates by reflecting on Graceworks Values as a guide for current initiatives and challenges. As Graceworks operates within changing healthcare and government-regulated environments, "it becomes even more important that we know who we are and what we value," he said.
The real excitement of the evening began when Pastor Larry Hoffsis, mission integration consultant for Graceworks, led a special worship celebration which helped bring our annual report to life. Storytellers helped paint the picture of those volunteers, residents, and staff that help Graceworks fulfill its mission of Faithful Caring.
While not every church we have a relationship with was able to send a representative to the meeting, there was still record attendance. Special music was provided by the talented trio of Lowell Woodrey, keyboard; Jerry Robinson, saxophone; and John Matre, bass. Bethany Village executive chef Eric Williams provided a special dinner for all who attended.

"Whatever needs done, I do it," says Vance Pribble, a resident of St. Mark's in Milford, Ohio, a Graceworks Housing Services community.
Vance spends his days helping other residents that call St. Mark's home. He drives them to appointments, fetches groceries and weeds flower beds. He even helped the community's maintenance man keep up on work when the building needed repainted.
"When the halls were being painted, I put all the garbage out, run the sweeper and mopped the floors so the maintenance man could get the painting done," explains Vance.
In addition to his current volunteer service to his neighbors, Vance is also a proud veteran of the U.S. Army, the 1st Infantry Division (also known as the Big Red One) and Purple Heart recipient. He was in the service for eight years, and took his basic training at Ft. Bliss, Texas.
It was during that basic training where Vance earned the Purple Heart. A fellow soldier was talking during ranks, which angered the Major in charge. The presiding officer told the man to do 50 push-ups as punishment. The soldier handed Vance his gun, which was loaded at the time. When his push-ups were completed, the soldier jumped up, grabbed the gun and attempted to shoot the Major in the back.
"I grabbed the gun, it went off, and it hit me just above my left eye," explains Vance of his quick thinking. "And I spent four days in the hospital. I still have the scar. The Major was so thankful that I saved his life that he gave me the Purple Heart. This story was even published in [military newspaper] Stars and Stripes."
In addition to the Purple Heart, he also earned the National Defense Service Medal and the Occupation Medal – Germany for his work in the Army. In 2008, Vance was granted his diploma from Milford High School — 58 years late. His education was interrupted by the call to serve.
Vance left the military in 1960. While he was in the service, he held many jobs, including one driving a truck. This proved helpful for his life after military service as he became an over-the-road semi driver for 20 years. Later he trained in major appliance repair and worked in that industry for more than two decades. Now at age 82, Vance is ready for his next adventure, which is a trip on the Honor Flight in May. Vance will attend with several other veterans from the Cincinnati area and travel to Washington, D.C. to view various war monuments. The veterans enjoy a large "welcome home" ceremony upon return to the Cincinnati airport.
One resident volunteer is a purposeful volunteer who commits to daily taking out the trash and takes ownership to ensure the common areas are clean and presentable. The residents that work in the garden to grow fresh vegetables to be shared in the community are seasonal volunteers. Another seasonal volunteer uses her own supplies to ensure the community is decorated and festive for each of the major holidays.
Many residents are accidental volunteers who don't realize helping each other or visiting another that is sick is volunteering. Random acts of kindness, like helping to carry in groceries, are also a form of "accidental volunteering." The residents gained a greater appreciation for their own efforts and those of others after hearing Jenny speak.
Pam McCuistion, Redeemer Site Manager, happily shares "Our volunteers are a work of "heart" and they are the heart of the building and a part of my heart. I am grateful and blessed to have the position I have and be a part of their lives."
This spirit of volunteering and involvement is not accidental. Redeemer Community has a "Kudos Program" in which act of volunteering, act of kindness and community involvement earns a raffle ticket for drawing in which nominal gift cards and donated prizes are given out.
The Resident Council completes fundraising to host activities for the community. Most recently, an outing to the Spaghetti Warehouse was made affordable for residents to participate from the Council paying a portion of the bill.
The volunteering that the residents complete makes the Redeemer Community an enriched environment assisting all residents to live more fully and to age in place. The efforts of the Redeemer Community volunteers are appreciated by those in the community.
Bethany Village is sponsored by Graceworks Lutheran Services, a non-profit organization in three states serving seniors, those with intellectual disabilities and individuals facing financial hardship.
The workshop series will offer social workers and related professionals the chance to earn 30 CEUs (continuing education credits). The workshops begin May 8 and continue through September 11. Topics and date are:
The cost for the complete workshop series is $300. Half-day workshops are $35 and full-day workshops are $70. To register, visit www.cssmv.org/events
Bethany Village is a senior living community of more than 750 older adults in residential living, assisted living and skilled nursing care, on a 100-acre campus in Centerville, Ohio. www.bethanylutheranvillage.org
The need for meaningful human connection and belonging is both physiological and psychological. Loneliness is a distressing feeling and a chronic subjective experience but is not the same as being alone. At Good Shepherd Community social events are offered but we have found that simply placing residents together in an activity does not always reduce loneliness nor promotes a sense of belonging. The lack of a sense of connection and belonging to a community has been linked to both loneliness and depression.
Java Music Club is a research-based mutual support activity group program designed to combat loneliness and depression. The focus is on having group participants help each other with the basic altruistic concept that people are happiest when they are helping one another. Research has shown that having a variety of components in one program (themes, photography, music, readings and the talking stick), makes for a highly interactive and successful group.
"I have never seen such a turnaround in people who have attended. I love the confidence that it is building in those that are attending. You can actually see their growth happening," says Barbara, Service Coordinator.
One example of the program's success can be seen in the changes brought out in resident Kate. In the past, Kate would say only "hello" with a smile to others. During the meeting, when it was Kate's turn to holding the talking stick, she was about to pass it along. However, after a few good questions from resident Shelly, Kate became animated going on and on about her family and really enjoyed herself.
Residents have many good things to say. Julie shares, "Friendship is key factor and communication with people." Gladys states "Power of doing! I love this program, it makes me happy." Resident Sharon adds, "I like the excitement of people coming together and relating to each other. It was not like this before."
Longtime community volunteer, Eugene explains "Java Music Club pulls people together first as neighbors and now we have become friends. It pulls out our personalities and creates new interest in all who attend. It gives people a chance to ring their chimes."
Barbara states, "Bottom line, the program works."
Good Shepard Community is doing a pilot of the Java Music Club program. Keith, Regional Property Manager for Graceworks Housing Services, hopes to expand Java Music Club to other Graceworks properties.

L'objectif de cette étude est la détermination de la distribution et des propriétés des métaux traces dans les sédiments de l'estuaire de l'Escaut, en vue d'améliorer la compréhension de leur comportement biogéochimique. Dans ce but, les distributions des éléments majeurs (Si, Al, Fe, Ca, Mg, Na, K, P, matières organiques et pertes au feu) et mineurs (Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, Cr, Ni, Co, Mn et Li) ont été examinées dans 59 échantillons de sédiments de surface. L'analyse factorielle des résultats de la composition des dépôts montre que le processus de piégeage dans la zone de turbidité maximale constitue le facteur le plus important qui explique les teneurs des métaux traces dans les sédiments. De plus, la distribution de ces éléments a été étudiée dans différentes fractions granulométriques démontrant l'accumulation des métaux toxiques dans les fractions les plus fines. Elle permis de discuter de manière critique les méthodes de normalisation les plus utilisées dans la littérature et d'adopter la normalisation par le Li comme la méthode la plus adéquate dans le cas de l'Escaut, l'Al reste un bon élément de normalisation sauf pour les sables. La normalisation des concentrations métalliques des sédiments par le Li, montre une accumulation importantes du Cd, du Zn, du Cu, du Pb et du Mn limitée à la zone amont et un comportement conservatif pour le Cr, le Ni et le Co. Une étude de spéciation géochimique des solides a été réalisée par une nouvelle approche basée sur la titration acide des sédiments mis en suspension. Cette méthode permet, contrairement à la méthode de digestion sélective, de préciser la spéciation, la mobilité et la réactivité des métaux traces dans les sédiments. Les fractions les plus réactives des métaux étudiés sont notées dans le cas du Cd (80%), du Pb (70%), du Cu (70%), du Zn (80%) et du Mn (80%), notamment dans les vases anaérobiques de la zone amont. Le piégeage de ces métaux d'origine anthropogénique s'explique par la précipitation du Cd et du Zn sous forme de sulfures, la précipitation du Mn avec les carbonates et le recyclage du Pb avec les oxyhydroxydes de Fer à l'interface eau/sédiment.

The distribution of androgen receptor-like immunoreactive (AR-ir) cells in the quail brain was analyzed by immunocytochemistry with the use of the affinity-purified antibody PG-21-19A raised against a synthetic peptide representing the first 21 N-terminal amino acids of the rat and human AR. This antibody is known to bind to the receptor in the absence as well as in the presence of endogenous ligands, and it was therefore expected that a more complete and accurate characterization of AR-ir cells would be obtained in comparison with previous studies using an antibody that preferentially recognizes the occupied receptor. Selected sections were double labeled for aromatase (ARO) by a technique that uses alkaline phosphatase as the reporter enzyme and Fast blue as the chromogen. AR-ir material was detected in the nucleus of cells located in a variety of brain areas in the preoptic region and the hypothalamus including the medial preoptic (POM), the supraoptic, the paraventricular (PVN), and the ventromedial (VMN) nuclei, but also in the tuberculum olfactorium, the nucleus accumbens/ventral striatum, the nucleus taeniae, the tuberal hypothalamus, the substantia grisea centralis (GCt), and the locus ceruleus. Cells exhibiting a dense AR-ir label were also detected in the nucleus intercollicularis. Preincubation of the primary antibody with an excess of the synthetic peptide used for immunization completely eliminated this nuclear staining. A significant number of AR-ir cells in the POM, VMN, PVN, and tuberal hypothalamus also contained ARO-ir material in their cytoplasm. These data confirm and extend previous studies localizing AR in the avian brain, and raise questions about the possible regulation by androgens of the metabolizing enzyme aromatase.

Until recently, it has been difficult to identify the exact location of aromatase containing cells in the brain. The development of new antibodies has provided a sensitive tool to analyze the distribution of aromatase immunoreactive (ARO-ir) material at a cellular level of resolution. In the present study we examined, for the first time, the distribution of ARO-ir cells in the brain of a reptile, the red-sided garter snake, at the beginning of the winter dormancy. ARO-ir cells were found at all rostro-caudal levels in the red-sided garter snake brain. Although weakly stained cells were distributed throughout the brain, more intensely immunoreactive cells were primarily concentrated in the preoptic area, anterior hypothalamus, septum and nucleus sphericus. Although androgens are elevated upon emergence from hibernation in the male red-sided garter snake, initiation of courtship behavior appears to be independent of direct androgen control. To date, the only known stimulus found to initiate courtship is a period of low temperature dormancy followed by exposure to warm temperatures. Circumstantial data, however, suggest an indirect role in the activation of male copulatory behavior for estrogenic metabolites of testosterone produced in the brain by aromatization during the winter dormancy. This study provides the first documentation of the distribution of ARO-ir cells in a reptilian species and demonstrates that while the aromatase enzyme occurs in most regions of the brain, the ARO-ir cells that appear to contain the highest concentration of enzyme are clustered in brain areas classically associated with the control of courtship behavior and mating in vertebrates. These data are consistent with the idea that estrogens locally produced in the brain may participate in some way to the activation of sexual behavior in this species also. This notion should now be experimentally tested by analyzing annual changes in aromatase activity and immunoreactivity and assessing the effects of pharmacological blockade of the enzyme activity at different times of the year.

An immunocytochemical peroxidase-antiperoxidase procedure using a purified polyclonal antibody raised against human placental aromatase was used to localize aromatase-containing cells in the brain of three avian species: the Japanese quail, the ring dove, and the zebra finch. In quail and dove, immunoreactive cells were found only in the preoptic area and hypothalamus, with a high density of positive cells being present in the medial preoptic area, in the septal area above the anterior commissure, in the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus, and in rostral part of the infundibulum. Immunoreactivity was weaker in zebra finches, and no signal could therefore be detected in the ventromedial and tuberal hypothalamus. The positive material was localized in the perikarya and in adjacent cytoplasmic processes, including the full length of axons always leaving a clear unstained cell nucleus. These features could be observed in more detail on sections cut from perfused brains and stained with an alkaline phosphatase procedure. The distribution of aromatase immunoreactivity was similar in the three species although minor differences were observed in the preoptic area. The localization of labelled neurons coincided with the distribution of aromatase activity as studied by in vitro radioenzyme assays on brain nuclei dissected by the Palkovits punch method. There was one striking exception to this rule: no immunoreactivity was detected in the zebra finch telencephalon, while assays had shown the presence of an active enzyme in several nuclei such as the robustus archistriatalis, the hyperstriatum ventrale pars caudale, and the hippocampus and area parahippocampalis. The origins of this discrepancy and the functional role of the aromatase observed in the axons are discussed. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 6 (1 ULg)

Cells immunoreactive for the enzyme aromatase were localized in the forebrain of male zebra finches with the use of an immunocytochemistry procedure. Two polyclonal antibodies, one directed against human placental aromatase and the other directed against quail recombinant aromatase, revealed a heterogeneous distribution of the enzyme in the telencephalon, diencephalon, and mesencephalon. Staining was enhanced in some birds by the administration of the nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor, R76713 racemic Vorozole) prior to the perfusion of the birds as previously described in Japanese quail. Large numbers of cells immunoreactive for aromatase were found in nuclei in the preoptic region and in the tuberal hypothalamus. A nucleus was identified in the preoptic region based on the high density of aromatase immunoreactive cells within its boundaries that appears to be homologous to the preoptic medial nucleus (POM) described previously in Japanese quail. In several birds alternate sections were stained for immunoreactive vasotocin, a marker of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). This information facilitated the clear separation of the POM in zebra finches from nuclei that are adjacent to the POM in the preoptic area-hypothalamus, such as the PVN and the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus. Positively staining cells were also detected widely throughout the telencephalon. Cells were discerned in the medial parts of the ventral hyperstriatum and neostriatum near the lateral ventricle and in dorsal and medial parts of the hippocampus. They were most abundant in the caudal neostriatum where they clustered in the dorsomedial neostriatum, and as a band of cells coursing along the dorsal edge of the lamina archistriatalis dorsalis. They were also present in high numbers in the ventrolateral aspect of the neostriatum and in the nucleus taeniae. None of the telencephalic vocal control nuclei had appreciable numbers of cells immunoreactive for aromatase within their boundaries, with the possible exception of a group of cells that may correspond to the medial part of the magnocellular nucleus of the neostriatum. The distribution of immunoreactive aromatase cells in the zebra finch brain is in excellent agreement with the distribution of cells expressing the mRNA for aromatase recently described in the finch telencephalon. This widespread telencephalic distribution of cells immunoreactive for aromatase has not been described in non-songbird species such as the Japanese quail, the ring dove, and the domestic fowl.

The distribution of aromatase-immunoreactive cells was studied by immunocytochemistry in the mouse forebrain using a purified polyclonal antibody raised against human placental aromatase. Labeled perikarya were found in the dorso-lateral parts of the medial and tuberal hypothalamus. Positive cells filled an area extending between the subincertal nucleus in the dorsal part, the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus in the ventral part, and the internal capsule and the magnocellular nucleus of the lateral hypothalamus in the lateral part. The same distribution was seen in the two strains of mice that were studied (Jackson and Swiss), and the number of immunoreactive perikarya did not seem to be affected by castration or testosterone treatment. No immunoreactivity could be detected in the medial regions of the preoptic area and hypothalamus; these were expected to contain the enzyme based on assays of aromatase activity performed in rats and on indirect autoradiographic evidence in mice. Our data raise questions concerning the distribution of aromatase in the brain and the mode of action of the centrally produced estrogens. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 13 (2 ULg)

The shrimp Rimicaris exoculata dominates the megafauna of some Mid-Atlantic Ridge hydrothermal vent fields. This species harbours a rich bacterial epibiosis inside its gill chamber. At the 'Rainbow' vent site (36degrees 14.0'N), the epibionts are associated with iron oxide deposits. Investigation of both bacteria and minerals by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray microanalysis (EDX) revealed 3 distinct compartments in the gill chamber: (1) the lower pre-branchial chamber, housing bacteria but devoid of minerals; (2) the 'true' branchial chamber, containing the gills and devoid of both bacteria and minerals; and (3) the upper pre-branchial chamber, housing the main ectosymbiotic bacterial community and associated mineral deposits. Our chemical and temperature data indicated that abiotic iron oxidation appears to be kinetically inhibited in the environment of the shrimps, which would explain the lack of iron oxide deposits in the first 2 compartments. We propose that iron oxidation is microbially promoted in the third area. The discrepancy between the spatial distribution of bacteria and minerals suggests that different bacterial metabolisms are involved in the first and third compartments. A possible explanation lies in the modification of physico-chemical conditions downstream of the gills that would reduce the oxygen content and favours the development of bacterial iron-oxidizers in this Fe-II-rich environment. A potential role of such iron-oxidizing symbionts in the shrimp diet is suggested. This would be unusual for hydrothermal ecosystems, in which most previously described symbioses rely on sulphide or methane as an energy source. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 7 (0 ULg)

Glomerulonephritis was induced in mice by the repeated injection of human glomeruli or purified glomerular basement membrane. The glomerular basement membranes of nephritic animals were observed to develop subepithelial extensions, "spikes." Although normally Type IV collagen is found throughout the full thickness of basement membranes, the "spikes" reacted with antibodies to laminin but not with antibodies to Type IV collagen. It is proposed that in murine autoimmune glomerulonephritis, the visceral epithelial cells produce an excess of laminin. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 3 (0 ULg)

Produced from a one hectare vineyard site whose vines are over 200 years old (yes, that's right 200+ year old, pre-phylloxera vines), this one is truly special. Unlike other 'fancy' Spanish whites, this is fermented with indigenous yeasts, spends 12 months on its lees in stainless steel, and doesn't see any French oak whatsoever. Drink this and you'll understand why, when it comes to Albariño, it's all about raw material. This is a very special wine, showing great intensity of rich stone fruit flavors as well as wonderful minerality. Drink with seafood.

Comment Disrespect goes both ways (Score 1) 853
My current work on userspace graphics enabling may require me to send an occasional quirks kernel patch, but I know I will spend at least a day dreading the potential toxic background radiation of interacting with the kernel community before I send anything
My wife and I did some extensive work to learn how to avoid expressing disrespect to each other.
One day I complained to her that she'd made me swim in a sea of toxic disrespectful judgments all day.
What I learned from the professionals was that using hyperbolic labels like "toxic" is also disrespectful. It's better to just stick to noting that you felt disrespected by a particular statement or statements until the message gets across - assuming the other side is working on learning to avoid disrespect. If they aren't, you identify the disrespect for them, notify them you aren't going to tolerate it any more, and then enforce boundaries to make sure you aren't subjected to it any more.
Another thing I learned is that people who are in an abusive relationship (including disrespect) tend to become abusers themselves.

Ranking The 2012-2013 Philadelphia Flyers: #3-1
The final part of this series shifts our focus to the three most important players that can impact the Philadelphia Flyers' success this season. These three players played an important part to the success and failure to the 2011-2012 team. One player looks for a bounce back season and the other two look to get even better.
3. Scott Hartnell (LW): Few players get traded to different teams and succeed right away. When the Flyers acquired Hartnell in 2007-2008, they believed that they got a player who could help them immediately as well as in the future. Well, Hartnell has been exactly as advertised. Aside from slipping and sliding over the ice, Hartnell has one of the best shots in the league. The power behind his shots are the reason that he is valuable on the power play. Hartnell played out of his mind last season, recording 67 points and building a close bond with Jaromir Jagr and Claude Giroux. If Hartnell and the Flyers want to succeed this season, then Hartnell needs to put up the numbers that he did a year ago. 67 points is not out of reach but Hartnell will need to work very hard to succeed.
2. Ilya Bryzgalov (G): The prized sign and trade move for the Flyers a season ago was given his first chance to legitimately make a run at the Stanley Cup last season. Bryzgalov was brought over to secure the goaltender position that had haunted the Flyers for the past decade. Bryzgalov struggled and struggled mightily. His GAA was very mediocre to say the least. Bryzgalov was the star off the ice in HBO's 24/7 series, but on the ice he looked like a man who was scared to play against the best. The city of Philadelphia got on Bryzgalov quickly. He had a rough time with the media as well as the fans. For a small stretch, Bryzgalov was brilliant in net and many fans thought that he had flipped the switch on just in time. If the Flyers want to get farther than they did a season ago, then most of the load is forced right upon Bryzgalov's shoulders. If Bryzgalov struggles, then the Flyers are in for a rough year.
1. Claude Giroux (RW): Championship teams and Hall of Fame players usually go hand in hand. Most Hall of Famers have that one break out season in which they show that they have finally arrived and are not stopping until they are the best. Championship teams have players who are able to control a locker room and demand the bets out of their players. Well, Giroux has a chance to do both. Last season was Giroux's coming out party. The NHL got its first glimpse of Giroux in 2009-2010 when he recorded 21 points in 23 games for the Flyers in their Stanley Cup run. Many who do not follow the Flyers may simply forget that Giroux played well under the pressure in that season. Because of that experience, Giroux was not worried about pressure. He elevated his game to another level and he attributed his success to the mentoring of Jagr. Jagr played a big role in Giroux's game last season. He has compared Giroux to the great Mario Lemieux. Jagr joked around earlier in the season by calling Giroux "little Mario". Well, Jagr knows what he is talking about.
