Our Orange County Elder Abuse Attorney Discusses Elder Abuse
Before reaching out to our Orange County elder abuse attorney, it is important to understand what constitutes elder abuse and the laws that are in place to protect older people from mistreatment. According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, elder abuse refers to an act committed by a caregiver or other person that causes harm to a vulnerable adult. The harm must be intentional or negligent and the person who mistreats the older person must be doing so knowingly. Every state has elder abuse prevention laws, although definitions about abuse may vary somewhat.
Types of Elder Abuse
Our Orange County elder abuse attorney says that there are many different types of elder abuse. These may include, but are not limited to:
- Physical – inflicting physical pain or injury that may include slapping, bruising or restraining
- Sexual – forcing an elderly person into non-consensual sexual acts
- Neglect – failure to provide food, shelter, health care or protection
- Exploitation – taking or misusing funds, property or assets illegally in order to benefit another person
- Emotional – causing an older person anguish or distress through humiliation, intimidation or threats
- Abandonment – desertion of someone who is elderly by a person or persons entrusted to care for them
- Self-neglect – failure of the person themselves to perform tasks that will keep them safe and healthy
Signs of Elder Abuse
There are often signs that an older person is being abused by a caregiver. Bruises, pressure marks, abrasions or broken bones indicate that the elderly person may be suffering from physical abuse or neglect. If an older person suddenly withdraws from activities, becomes less alert or appears depressed, they may be suffering from emotional abuse. Elderly people who develop bedsores, display poor hygiene or lose weight for no apparent reason could be suffering from neglect. Other, less apparent signs of abuse are uses of power and control by spouses or caregivers as well as frequent arguments or strained relationships between the older person and the caregiver. If an elderly person seems to have developed a sudden financial problem, a caregiver may be exploiting them. Unfortunately, it could take months or years before the exploitation is discovered.
Silent Suffering
Our elder abuse attorney says that older people are often reluctant to report abuse by a caregiver, especially if they are being cared for by a spouse or their children. In some cases, the older person may no longer have the mental capacity to recognize abuse, especially exploitation. Family members whose older relatives are being cared for by outside agencies should be vigilant regarding changes in their loved one's appearance, demeanor and financial standing.

What happens when a vegetarian, two avowedly healthy eaters and a food critic walk into Sweeney's, the three-month-old bistro on Johns Island? They notice there's an awful lot of pork on the menu.
Pig meat is a given in the South, of course, but Sweeney's stops just short of swatting its guests with a country ham. Four of the six sandwiches are ornamented with pork, including a grilled chicken sandwich crisscrossed with bacon, a cheeseburger finished with bacon strips and a grilled cheese plumped with pork terrine.
Bacon shows up in places where customers might conceivably crave it, such as in a cheese-sauced penne with peas, and in places where it doesn't belong: Propriety doesn't demand wrapping a naked filet in bacon. A mild filet doesn't stand a chance against the smoky flavors of cured pork.
Maybe I went to Sweeney's with the wrong crowd. But the bacon ornamentation seemed to show up a bigger problem with Sweeney's: The restaurant lacks both a distinct point of view and the confidence it needs to produce really interesting plates that could justify the prices charged for them.
Sweeney's isn't hopeless. You're not likely to find yourself shoving aside unfinished plates, but it can't make up for the general dullness of its food and decor by embellishing everything with bacon.
The tidy dining room at Sweeney's is, above all, tasteful. Glossed caramel-brown wooden tables with darker wooden chairs are amply spaced throughout the burgundy-walled room; a column at the corner of the compact L-shaped bar and the kitchen entryway are encased in slate bricks.
The only deviation from predictability is an ostentatiously gaudy blue glass chandelier, but that's just interior decorating bacon, an awkward attempt at people-pleasing personality.
Unfortunately, the chandelier doesn't do anything useful in a room besieged by bad lighting.
Owner Jim Sweeney, a New Jersey native who moved here in 2008, was formerly a food and beverage director for Embassy Suites, Hilton and Marriott. His wife and co-owner, Dawn Sweeney, spent more than 15 years on Johnson & Wales University's administrative staff.
Executive chef Jared Secor's kitchen is now in autumn mode. The current menu is speckled with cranberries and apples and butternut squash.
There's seemingly no end to the squash, cubes of which are tucked into a bowl of mussels; stashed beneath a pork chop and strewn across a salad of portabella mushroom wedges and arugula leaves.
Although there are only a few seats at the bar, the lead-off "snacks" section of the menu may have been partly devised for the attractive patio, where diners can cozy up to an outdoor fireplace with a bottle of wine. Or they can draw warmth directly from the miscellaneous selection of little dishes, which includes the expected toasted nuts, pickled vegetables and a totally kooky egg-in-a-hat.
Also borrowed from the breakfast brigade is a baked apple crammed with a dry stuffing made from oversized chunks of pecan bread. Garnished with fat roasted cranberries and varnished with sweet apple cider, the dish is quite sweet.
Better is an old-fashioned plate of toasted baguette rounds slathered with thick mushrooms in a beer-inflected cream sauce, simple as it is rich.
Eaters will find slightly more sophistication, and considerably fewer calories, on the small plates of seafood. Sweeney's serves a crab salad and three slightly too-seared scallops on a plate smeared with a curried carrot sauce. Steamed mussels suffer from construction mistakes, with the accompanying fries submerged in the garlicky broth and voiding any crispness they'd ever acquired.
Among the entrees, only a sliced roasted chicken seriously disappointed. Beneath its nicely salted and crisped skin, the bird was dried out and flavorless. The kitchen also was rough with a filet and seared salmon, but both fell well within the acceptable category.
There are a few standouts at Sweeney's. A massive grilled pork chop brushed with maple syrup and perched on a mound of apples and squash was exceptionally tender. And a zippy salad of shredded kale and Brussels sprouts leaves, sliced apples and walnuts was eat-it-all-up terrific. Blasted with crumbled blue cheese and dressed with a citrus vinaigrette that introduced an acidic tang otherwise missing from the table, the salad didn't need any bacon.

The Luke Scott Problem: I Know Why I Cheer for a Birther Moron, But Why Does ESPN Cheer for Him?
Luke Scott, the starting left fielder for the Baltimore Orioles, can hit a baseball really hard. Really, really hard. The kind of booming, long-distance home runs that get called "majestic." For those of us who are Orioles fans, that is a good thing about him.
The other thing about Luke Scott—and now in most respects the bigger thing about him—is that he is a self-important jerkwater dope who likes going around
. Not just who quietly thinks it sorta might be true, that the president of the United States is a scheming foreign impostor, but who makes sure people hear his important views on the subject, and goes on to celebrate how proud he is to believe this and how brave he is to say it.
Last week, Amy K. Nelson of ESPN wrote a
who she identified as "one of baseball's most complex characters" and someone who "will require a deeper line of thinking."
Nope. Luke Scott, as he showed Nelson while roaming around Florida with her during spring training, is a standard-issue ignoramus, whose otherwise unfurnished mental spaces have been filled in with white-exceptionalist superpatriotism, gun-fetish paranoia, and assorted other fantasies and delusions scavenged from the county dump of red-blooded One-Hundred-Percent America.
He does hit a baseball hard, though. Man. Pow!
But Amy K. Nelson is interested in his character. Here are the complex-ish parts: he's a white ballplayer who is friendly with his Latino teammates and speaks fluent Spanish—having grown up poor in Florida. He does charitable works "with no publicity," except for the publicity that comes from letting that fact be known to a reporter profiling him for the biggest sports-media outlet in the country. And...well, no, that's it. He has nice manners.
Did I mention he hits baseballs hard? Being a sports fan, and a baseball fan in particular, means you are emotionally invested in a certain aspect of the lives and successes of people who have been rewarded, with tremendous amounts of money and fame, for doing (and being) what they did (and were) as 14-year-olds.
This does not always produce the most all-around appealing people. I have rooted for arrogant and surly players, mean drunks, bullies, phony Bible-thumpers, steroids abusers—that's who shows up, sometimes, in your team's uniform, trying to win games. Sometimes there are decent, funny, humble ones, too. But you don't get to choose. Even if you think you're cheering for a good guy, you
So now I'm cheering for a pinhead with a race problem. I'd love to convince myself I'm not, but Nelson's article really leaves no room. He calls his Latino buddies "savage" and "animal"—and "bogeyman," for the especially dark-skinned Felix Pie, the Orioles' other left fielder. They are dear friends, Pie and Scott. Scott took it upon himself to improve the younger Pie's character when Pie, a former can't-miss prospect for the Cubs, came to Baltimore. Among the tools of improvement, he told Nelson, is a bag of plantain chips:
"So I throw bananas in his helmet. Here are my banana chips to remind him that whenever he acts like an animal, 'Hey, that's what other people are thinking. They're just not telling you, but that's what they're thinking about. And I'm telling you so that you're aware of that so you can make a cognitive decision to not behave like that.'"
Luke Scott is very attuned to the possibility that white people will see nonwhite people as animals. Especially if the white people are disgusted by a nonwhite person's "cognitive decision." A nonwhite person needs a white person to explain how to make correct cognitive decisions, and decisions about values, and all the other sorts of judgments that our Founders made, when this country still believed in accountability and hard work. Etc.
Nelson was not interested in criticizing or unpacking this point of view—or really, any point of view. Here's her account of the fallout from the radio interview during the offseason when Scott first decided to take his birther views public:
But negative reaction cascaded, too, with some bloggers saying that evidence Obama was born in Hawaii is overwhelming and that Scott must be a racist or a moron, or both.
. Other people have other views. People disagree! It sure is confusing.
Nelson also recounted a scene in which Scott lets Pie play around with his Sig Sauer 556 in his gun-crowded condominium.
Scott, wearing a black baseball cap backward that reads "In God We Trust," walks back into the kitchen and tells us he keeps guns all over his house, even in the kitchen cabinets, and always within reach -- you never know when a criminal could strike, he says.
As we leave for the gun range, Scott stuffs a pistol into the side of the sofa cushion.
Nelson did not mention, as the Orioles bonded at this gun party, that one of Scott's teammates was unavailable:
, Baltimore's closer last year, was in prison in the Dominican Republic when spring training began, after being implicated in a fatal shooting over New Year's. Accounts varied as to whether it was a case of sloppy celebratory gunfire or some sort of fight, and charges may still be pending. Guns! They are a form of freedom. Especially when you leave them stuffed in the furniture.
Screwing around with guns in front of a national reporter, while a case of manslaughter or worse was hanging over his ballclub, was a piss-poor cognitive decision. Some leagues would find a way to discipline a player reckless and self-centered enough to do that. But Scott seems hell-bent on becoming the Carrie Prejean of baseball, and it won't do the Orioles any good to help him along the way.
Behind the free-speech and image-management problems, there's a baseball problem. Nelson got that wrong, too, describing Scott as a player "who has always been consistent." In fact, he's a bizarre hot-and-cold hitter, a guy who can flail his way through an
, or suddenly start belting pitch after pitch into the far end of the bleachers.
So far this year, he's not hitting. This spring the Orioles gave Scott's old job as designated hitter to free agent Vladimir Guerrero, and moved Scott to left. His best buddy Pie—a sloppy-looking but much better defender—went to the bench. None of the three is hitting. Catchable fly balls are dropping in left field.
Under the circumstances, I don't care about his personality or politics. Those matter inasmuch as the O's will probably need to trade somebody, at some point, to clean up the outfield/DH roster, and it would be nice if they could make it a pure baseball decision, without either side of the deal having to worry about bad publicity (or the risk of someone flopping down on Scott's couch and catching a stray round).
So the best thing from Baltimore's point of view is to ignore Scott and hope he shuts up. What ESPN is trying to do—letting Scott talk, while pretending not to understand what he says—is harder to figure out.

I need a new career – Is this something you have asked yourself before?
I am sure we have all felt it from one time to another, lost. Just when we think we have grips on life somehow something can change to take that feeling away. So there we go again trying to figure it all out again.
When this happens you start reflecting and doubting if what you are doing is actually getting you closer to you "Why". You start asking yourself questions like;
Am I doing the job I love?
Do I have what it takes to become more than an employee at this company to earn more income?
Is this for me?
Is this job making me feel empty?
I have felt these and maybe these are the natural progression of self development because I can tell you those questions come up more frequently as you start to work on yourself (I suggest listening to audios or reading for an hour a day).
I felt like this when I younger and felt I was trapped when I was working for a cable company like it was just eating away my soul. At that point is where I knew that job was not something I wanted to do until I retired (had set a goal to retire at 45). I just knew something had to change because I felt my soul was dying something had to change.
After some soul searching and carving away deeper and deeper I established my why. Once I discovered my why and had built my three sources of income I quit my job.
Let me tell you even though I had my income sources turned on it was still the scariest moment of my life. We are raised to graduate college, get a job with good benefits and retire there so I was breaking the mold. My dad still to this day always asks me if I am going to ever work again and I laugh and ensure him I am not.
Well its been years and my businesses are growing but when your mission is bigger than money itself you will have nothing less than success. My wife runs a retail store in the health niche and as for myself I am in marketing. The lessons I have learned are what I want to share with others.
I believe it will give others the courage to try their goals and will help drop the learning curve by well over fifty percent.
My sole purpose in this post is to inspire you to use your head (those that want entrepreneurship), change careers and start your own business and take a lesson away from my experience.
Life Lessons Learned
1. You will be waiting all your life if your waiting for the perfect time
Are you sitting on a great idea that needs to be submitted for a patent search and your waiting for the right time? I have lost out on a LOT of good deals because I stalled or over analyzed it and lost out to others who took action. Think of it like this,,, motivation are like showers we take them daily so that is why if you become part of movement, team or start your own business it is imperative you listen to audios daily. What this does for you is inject daily inspiration, motivation and business ideas from other successful people.
I stay motivated daily and get new ideas daily for my business which as an example helped a peer make $3k last week. There are so many audios you can listen to but if your curious which ones I listen to daily here they are.
Sit back today and think to yourself if you are achieving your why and if doing what your doing will get you closer to your why if you did it for 10 more years.
2. Haters goin to hate….
It's human nature for most when we allow the opinions of others to affect us, hold us back or even worse stop us from attempting our dream. Admit it, many people have changed their mind about something because of the opinions of others. Trust me, when I quit my job I had a lot of people definitely tell me their opinion how it was not a smart move, oh my Joe how are you going to make it, are you crazy, etc, etc.
That is where you are either mentally strong and listening and reading to your daily motivation or you are again just swayed by the opinions of others. You cannot and you will not satisfy everyone just live in the moment and continue to do best for improving yourself…. [click to continue…]

About the Muslim Marine
Mansoor Shams is a U.S. Marine Veteran, business owner, and Muslim youth leader. He also serves as a leader with Veterans for American Ideals (VFAI) working with fellow veterans to counter hate, bigotry, and Islamophobia.
Mansoor served four years in the U.S. Marine Corps, where he attained the rank of corporal (non-commissioned officer) and received several honors including a meritorious promotion, Marine of the Quarter and Certificate of Commendation.
He's been featured by the BBC, New York Times, Washington Post, Baltimore Sun and more, and has made national TV appearances as a commentator on CNN and MSNBC.
Mansoor holds a master's degree in government, with an emphasis on national security studies, and an MBA from Johns Hopkins University.
He is currently owner and partner of a technology distribution company, Eye Deal Systems LLC serving as its President. He is also owner and partner of FHM LLC dba T-Mobile.From 2005 to 2008, soon after receiving an honorable discharge, Mansoor began working for the federal government as an assistant to two SEC chairmen.
What conflict of interest?
Some misinformed people I come across wonder how can one be an American, let alone an American Marine, while at the same time being a Muslim. What they don't realize is that loyalty to one's country of residence is part faith. In fact, it is very Muslim.
"Love of one's country of residence is a part of faith."
– Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him
To give you a logical perspective, the world has seen many Muslim-majority nations go to war with one another. But how many times have you heard the Muslims fighting in these armies lay down their arms while in a condition of war for the sake of just being "Muslim?" Never.
The reason? They are simply serving their countries - and that is being very Muslim of them. America is my home, it is my country! As a U.S. citizen, America affords me a long list of rights and privileges.
Why wouldn't I put my life on the line for the nation I love?
I'll put it simply. There's no conflict of interest between my Muslim values and my American Constitution.
"O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey His Messenger and those who are in authority among you."
– The Holy Quran, 4:60

This week we had 2 baptisms! It was pretty sweet. It was a family that had completely rejected my companions here the last time and then we went and they accepted us at the snap of a finger. hahaha. It was pretty funny. But, it was a part member family with the mom being the only member. The dad is a guy that likes to drink and isn't a big fan of churches. He didn't listen at all nor his 2 oldest sons. But the mom and her 2 youngest children did listen. They went to church last week and this week also. It started out very hard.....we went they listened to us and were interrupted many times by the dad. The second time we came back again and taught a little bit better cause the dad wasn't there. Then the 3rd time we get there and the sister told us that her husband doesn't want any of them to go. She was crying while telling us that she wouldn't go anymore and about all the problems with her husband and family. I felt gutted because I had no idea how to help them....I felt there was nothing we could do. But then I opened my mouth and spoke without even knowing what I was saying and explained about the priesthood and that we could give them all a blessing and the house because they commented about some weird things happening there. Immediately they all responded saying yes. So we went in the house all knelt down and I blessed the house so that it would be protected from all evil spirits. Then we stood up and my companion gave a blessing to Antonio (he was baptized Sunday). Then I went and gave one to Mari (also baptized Sunday). As I finished her blessing I began to choke up. But no worries, I held it in while longer. But then we changed and my companion began to bless the mother. And that's when some water works started flowing. I began to cry......it was weird for me. I haven't cried in my entire mission at least I don't remember. But in that moment I felt the spirit very strongly I felt a pure love for this family and I wanted the best for them. We were able to use the priesthood to help them and the next day we came and everything was better. The family was together and happy when we arrived the next day.
I know the power of the priesthood is real. When we are worthy we can use it to literally help change the lives of others. I also could feel a slight glimpse of what pure love is. At least that's the closest I have felt to pure love. If we can understand this pure love we an understand the necessity to share the gospel. It isn't something that if we want to do it we can do it its we should and we will do it. The Lord is confident and has given us the opportunity to have the gospel in our live. But why? I believe that he has given it to us because he wants us to share it.
And our father in heaven is so loving that he has prepared a book to help us do just that task. Preach my Gospel is a book inspired of God and was prepared on the otheride of the veil for all people that want to share the gospel. NOT only missionaries. ALL members of the church. Our mission president and his wife told us that their family nights are based on Preach My Gospel and when they finish they start over. I know that if you study it then you will learn how to share the gospel in a way that we can push along the work of the Lord in these latter days. I ask all of you that you please study it. Individually and as a family. If you do it I promise that you will feel the spirit more in your lives, the Lord will guide you in order to find and to help our brothers and sisters that our lost on this earth to find the truth. I testify o these things in the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
Also some fun stuff this week! I got to hold a baby possum. The family that was baptized is a humble family and they work cutting in the jungle and so they find lots of animals. This was one they found out there. Also i rode a donkey:D Super cool haha. It was pretty fun and cool. and that's about it!!!
Love you guys take care!!

Notebook: Freezing Mount Union?
Sept. 28, 2010
By Amy Farnum
LAYING IT ON THE LINE: When No. 2 Mount Union and No. 9 Ohio Northern meet on the gridiron on Oct. 2, two significant streaks will be on the line in the highly-touted match-up between Ohio Athletic Conference foes on Oct. 2.
The Purple Raiders are coming off a 51-0 win at Wilmington (Ohio) that stretched their regular season winning streak to 46 games. Zac Lemmon rushed for three touchdowns, while the Purple Raiders defense held the Quakers to 151 total yards.
The Polar Bears froze out Muskingum, 36-0, last weekend, limiting the Muskies to only three yards rushing and 158 total yards in the shutout. Senior running back Brent Donley, the OAC Offensive Player of the Week, ran for 143 yards and a score as ONU won its school-record 10th straight game - a streak that dates back to last season.
Mount Union leads the all-time series 38-13-1 and has won four straight against ONU since the Polar Bears 21-14 win in 2005 in Alliance.
TOMMIE-JOHNNIE SHOWDOWN: For the first time in program history, St. Thomas (Minn.) will visit Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference foe Saint Johns with a Top 5 ranking attached to its name. The Johnnies are ranked No. 18 in the latest AFCA Division III Top 25 as two of the nations top scoring offenses (both over 40 points per game) will face each other on Oct. 2. It is the first time in 25 years SJU has hosted the Tommies for Homecoming.
The Tommies are fresh off a 56-7 drubbing of Concordia-Moorhead, racking up 503 yards of total offense, while giving up just 167 and forcing five turnovers.
The Johnnies are coming off a similar dominant victory after downing Augsburg, 48-10. Quarterback Joe Boyle notched his first career 300-yard passing game as the Johnnies hit the mark for the first time since 2007. The native of Richfield, Minn., tossed two TDs and ran for two more, earning MIAC Offensive Player of the Week honors.
Last years match-up drew 12,903 fans in Collegeville, just 205 short of the league single-game attendance record. The Johnnies have won 12 straight in the series.
CCIW ROLLING: After concluding non-league action with a 22-2, the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin will begin conference play with a bang as two nationally-ranked foes face off on Oct. 2 and No. 13 Illinois Wesleyan heads to No. 17 Wheaton (Ill.) to open CCIW play.
Both squads enter league action with 3-0 marks, and are two of six schools in the eight-member conference that accomplished the feat. Collectively, the CCIW posted a 22-2 non-conference mark, the leagues best record since 1998. No. 7 North Central, the preseason favorite to win the league, also began the year with a 3-0 mark.
QUICK HITS: Alfred University cracked the AFCA Division III Top 25 at No. 25 following a 35-28 win at Springfield to open Empire 8 action. Freshman tailback Austin Dwyer rushed for a career-high 168 yards and two TDs, and caught another score on the day, garnering the leagues Offensive Player of the Week award … Coe College junior quarterback Brad Boyle threw for two scores and ran for three more as the Kohawks rallied for 17 unanswered points in a 37-28 comeback over then-No. 7 Central (Iowa). Boyle was named Iowa Conference Offensive Player of the Week for his performance. It was the Kohawks first win over the Dutch since 2005. Coe racked up 533 yards of offense, the third consecutive week it has hit the 500-yard mark. No. 8 Coe looks to remain perfect at Dubuque on Oct. 2 … Bridgewater (Va.) got off to a 3-0 start with a 35-24 win over Ferrum as senior wide receiver Tyler Beiler collected 212 yards receiving to become the schools all-time leader in receiving yards (2,051). Three of Beilers seven catches were for a touchdown. He earned Old Dominion Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Week for his accomplishments.

Solid waste management was initially thought to be the most recession-resistant segment of the environmental industry.
Surely even an economic downturn could not stem the tide of the millions of tons of garbage generated by Americans each year.
However, the first returns showing that a large environmental company was having trouble came from none other than Browning-Ferris Industries Inc. of Houston, the $3 billion refuse hauler and landfill operator.

President Bush diminished his place in history and permanently stained the reputation of Caspar W. Weinberger when he pardoned the former defense secretary and five other Irancontra figures on Christmas Eve.
Pardoning people in key government positions, who have been convicted or merely suspected of serious wrongdoing, is becoming a Republican habit. In 1974, President Gerald R. Ford pardoned his predecessor, Richard M. Nixon, for any crimes he might have committed in the Watergate scandal.

If you're unsure how best to split a small drawer, default to equal quadrants. Then sort by style or color—whichever makes it easier to spot, say, that one pair of undies you need for those white jeans.
Create canals for various-shaped garments that share real estate, like gym clothes. Pack pairs together (say, a top and shorts) so you can grab and go. Use a shallow drawer so garments, like ties, are only one layer deep—no riffling required.To buy: Three-section drawer organizer, $20, containerstore.com.
Stash the odd items that normally mar the dresser landscape—sunglasses, occasional jewelry, nail polish, receipts, lotions—into a place-for-everything Lucite grid tucked in a top drawer.To buy: Ava large acrylic organizer, $29.50, frontgate.com.
Store easy-to-miss essentials, like camisoles, hose, and your favorite socks, in individual compartments.To buy: Eight-section linen drawer organizer, $15, containerstore.com.
For your good bras, copy the flat storage used by retailers with a neat rectangular box.To buy: Narrow open drawer organizer, $15, containerstore.com.
It's classic advice, but it bears repeating: Fold cotton tops; roll synthetic tees (they won't wrinkle, and they take up less space rolled) and small items, like tanks and tights.

Dozens feared dead after horrific nursing home fire in Quebec
Three dead, dozens missing after horrific nursing home fire in Quebec
Five people were confirmed dead and 31 were missing after a fire blazed through a Canadian nursing home built out of wood early Thursday morning.*
The death toll almost certainly will rise, because the missing people nearly all "have challenges moving around," local Parliament member François Lapointe told The Associated Press. Witnesses, including firefighters, described hearing and seeing people who could not be rescued. A man saw his mother burn to death while trapped on a balcony, a witness told reporters.
The fire began around 12:20 a.m., according to reports from the town of L'Isle-Verte, a community of about 1,500 people located 140 miles northeast of Quebec City. The flames consumed the west wing of the Résidence du Havre, a 52-unit facility that opened in 1997.
A firewall separated the west wing from the east wing, allowing about 20 residents to be evacuated from that side of the complex, according to the Globe and Mail. Reports indicate that the west wing had only a partial automatic sprinkler system, and the building was constructed entirely of wood.
Scores of volunteer firefighters battled the blaze in frigid conditions, with the temperature hovering around 5 degrees and the wind chill plummeting to make it feel like minus-20, according to the AP. Photographs taken in the morning showed ice coating the rubble.
Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Quebec Premier Pauline Marois issued condolence statements. The facility is privately run, Marois noted, but she added that her office will do "everything we can to support the community and families."
A cause still has not been determined, authorities have said.
Disaster preparation in general and automatic sprinkler systems in particular both have gained attention recently in the U.S. long-term care sector.
In August, a requirement for U.S. nursing homes to have full sprinkler systems took effect. At the time, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services identified more than 700 facilities that were not in compliance. Earlier this month, CMS issued a proposed nursing home regulation outlining more stringent disaster preparedness requirements.
*Editor's Note: These numbers reflect the confirmed death toll as of 9 a.m. Friday, as reported by The New York Times. Original reports confirmed three dead.

Just as was predicted, based on the expectations management being undertaken by high-ranking Democrats, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes confirmed on Sunday that he's seen no evidence of collusion between President Trump's campaign and Russia.
As The Hill reports, Nunes was asked during an interview on "Fox News Sunday" if he has seen any evidence of any collusion between "Trump world" and Russia to swing the 2016 presidential election.
"I'll give you a very simple answer: 'no,' " Nunes said. "Up to speed on everything I have up to this morning. No evidence of collusion."
The post Intel Chair: "No Collusion Between Trump and Russia… Leak Is The Only Crime" appeared first on Silver For The People.

Dallas-based Weber & Co., which developed the Target-anchored shopping center at Montgomery Plaza on the near west side several years ago, has bought about 70 acres in the Presidio Junction development in far north Fort Worth with plans for a shopping center there.
The center would be near a Costco Wholesale warehouse club that recently opened at 8900 Tehama Ridge Parkway, on the west side of Interstate 35W and south of North Tarrant Parkway, across from Alliance Town Center.
Weber acquired 48 acres in early April from LNR Property Corp. in Newport Beach, Calif., which bought about 188 acres north of U.S. 287 and west of I-35W for the master-planned development in 2007.
Weber acquired other parcels from Lowe's, which had bought the land from LNR in 2008 but decided not to build a store there, and from Target in a land swap.
LNR has planned 1 million square feet for shops and restaurants, 1,300 apartments and 750,000 square feet for a hotel, a fitness center and Class A office space. LNR previously completed the Wyatt at Presidio Junction apartment community.
John Weber Jr. said the company obtained 10.3 acres from Target but sold the retailer 9 acres closer to Tehama Ridge Parkway and North Tarrant Parkway, where Target expects to have a store open in 2015.
Weber & Co., which already owned 39 acres at the northwest corner of U.S. 287 and Harmon Road, plans a shopping center called Presidio Towne Crossing.
Weber said that the developer has letters of intent with several junior anchor stores, and that store announcements and other details will be made public within weeks.
"We're under contract with a lot more land out there," Weber said. "We view this as a true retail destination. We're proceeding forward."
An executive in LNR's regional office in Dallas did not return phone calls seeking comment on the sale. LNR bought the land seven years ago from Diversified Real Estate, which had been working with Legacy Capital Co. in Dallas to develop the shopping center, once called Presidio Vista.
Since then, Hillwood, the developer of the 18,000-acre AllianceTexas development, formed a joint venture with Fort Worth-based Trademark Property Co. to build Alliance Town Center on the east side of I-35W.
An outlet shopping center with about 50 stores, to be called The Outlets at Alliance, is also in the works for a site off I-35W just north of Cabela's. Fort Worth-based Woodmont Land Co. is under contract to buy 45 acres from Hillwood Properties for the 350,000-square-foot project.
Besides Montgomery Plaza, Weber & Co. developed Cityview Towne Crossing in far southwest Fort Worth, Lake Worth Towne Crossing, Watauga Towne Crossing, Heritage Towne Crossing in Euless, North Richland Hills Towne Crossing and Mansfield Towne Crossing.

Student launches archival exhibit
SHREVEPORT, LA — Centenary student Alissa Brown '15 has prepared the archival exhibit, Art of the Game, 1924-2004: Centenary Athletic Publication Artwork, currently on display in the Whited Room lobby of Bynum Commons through October 15. The display is free and open to the public.
"The collection features artistic athletic publications from 1924-2004," said Alissa. "I tried to include a good mix of sports—and include female and male athletics. Visitors will find that past program covers were very artistic whereas more current items feature team photos."
With the help of Centenary Archivist Chris Brown '01, Alissa conducted research, reproduced original items, and created captions. Materials included in the display are from the Centenary College of Louisiana Archives and Special Collections and organized by sport.
A particular item of interest in the exhibit includes a 1932 program cover for a Centenary vs. LSU football game. Sports fans wanting to know the outcome: The Gents beat the Tigers 6-0 at the November game attended by Louisiana Governor Huey P. Long and ended their season undefeated.
Alissa completed the project as part of her "Chase Your Dream 101" class that she took this summer. The Dream Share Project offered the online class as a way to help students identify and reach their goals. The class devoted four weeks to inspirational readings and exercises including discussions on how to fund your dream and develop habits of success.
Centenary's Office of Professional Development hosted Dream Share Project creators Alexis Irvin and Chip Hiden along with a showing of the original documentary by the same name in the spring semester.

The suggestions for specific actions you can take to further your career are useful. Some of the stories about different companies are insightful as well. A great deal of time was spent on the authors' own experiences which were less interesting because it sounded like listening to a very long cover letter, but you can skim past those parts.
I have dropped off this book in Redmond Ridge East Dropbox on 9/1/2014
Good book. Helpful for personal improvement and inspiration. It's not a step by step guide book, but the cases written in the book are very useful for people pursuing their dreams.

Reduce Your Risk of Falling
Posted 2/6/2008
Because one in three Americans over the age of 65 will fall every year, it is important to take preventative measures to reduce your risk of falling, and reduce your possibility of experiencing injury, long term care or even death from a fall. University of Nevada Cooperative Extension (UNCE) offers two publications entitled Reducing Personal Risks of Accidental Falls, and Preventing Falls in Your Home, with tips and guidance on how to avoid falls.
Not only do environmental risk factors, such as poor lighting or loose area rugs, play a part in falls, but there are some individual risk factors as well. For example, women are more likely to fall than men and people over the age of 55 are more likely to fall than younger adults.
One of the first steps in preventing falls is checking your home for hazards that may cause you to fall. The articles offer several tips for making your home a safer place, such as providing adequate lighting, clearing loose objects and clutter from the floor, and removing or securing loose area rugs. Outside your home, you should watch for uneven surfaces, unexpected spills, loose objects and slippery floors. Being unfamiliar with your surroundings also creates a risk factor.
The publication shows how you can also reduce some of your personal risk factors. Choose footwear with closed heels and toes to avoid catching on something that could cause a fall, get regular eye exams and know what medications you are taking to avoid negative interactions or side effects.
Another way to avoid falls is regular physical activity. Exercise helps to strengthen muscle, which protects joints and provides the strength and balance needed to get around safely. The article offers tips on how to start exercising in a safe way to start reducing your personal risk of falling.
Within the articles are more tips on preventing falls and more in-depth suggestions to make your home a safer place. By following these guidelines, you may reduce your likelihood of falling, thus avoiding injury or even death caused by falling. Simple measures go a long way, such as being aware of your surroundings and not being in a hurry.
For more information read the articles on the UNCE website. UNCE offers several research-based, free online publications on their website on a wide range of topics, including health and nutrition, agriculture and community development.

The Unfinished Swan Detailed For PSN [TRAILER]
PSN has played host to some truly stunning games over the last few years. The relatively low development costs involved and consequently lower cost to the consumer has resulted in a degree of experimentation not seen in the gaming world since the days of bedroom programmers. Titles like Flower and Journey for example have gained both critical and commercial acclaim where gamers are prepared to take a chance on something only costing a few bucks.
Another original title that was talked about a few years back and then more or less forgotten was The Unfinished Swan. I'll admit that the game had fallen completely off my radar but the recently released trailer makes it look really interesting.
Dubbed a 'first person painting game' which sounds like a genre it has all to itself at the moment, the player takes control of a boy called Monroe who is chasing a swan who has escaped from a painting. In the process you explore the world surrounding you by throwing paint at it, which enables the development of a gorgeous black and white world.
Artistically the game already looks to be a hit, and if the gameplay matches the look then we will be in for a treat. The Unfinished Swan is developed by Giant Sparrow, and is due for release exclusively to PSN soon. Oh, and more good news – the developer has confirmed that PS Move will also be supported. Let us know what you guys think of the trailer by leaving your comments below.

Because I edit a garden magazine, I'm constantly tempted by new plants — whether they are new on the market or just new to me. This year, I've planted two "new to me" plants that have brightened up different spots in the garden.
On the front porch, I put a Black-eyed Susan vine (Thunbergia alata) in a pot. Despite the common-name reference to a favorite prairie plant, this vine is tropical. It was easy to grow from seed and once out on the porch, it started to climb its support. Vines grow 5 to 10 feet long and can be used as a trailer in a window box or hanging basket or as a climber on a trellis. The 2-inch-diameter flowers come in orange and yellow shades and contrast starkly with the deep black eyes at the plant's center.
In the July/August issue of Northern Gardener, native plants columnist Lynn Steiner recommends Mexican hat (Ratibida columnifera) for its diminutive size, attractive foliage and bright flowers. This is a tough plant that preforms well in dry conditions, sun or light shade, and has an unusual, sombrero-shaped bloom that inspired the common name. When I saw some plants on sale, I bought three. They seemed to struggle a bit at first in the bed, which has plenty of shrub roots, but they're blooming now and seem to be establishing themselves.

Undiscovered Cartagena, fab restaurant, great views 30 and lovely memories with family meals with children playing in the sand over the years. We live in very rural Sussex in the middle of nowhere. We wanted the children to have wonderful memories of riding their bikes down the promenade, going to get ice creams, having some independence away from the mum and dad taxi service. We wanted peace and rest as we both have busy jobs and to relax and enjoy tapas on the beach, cocktails at sunset and children swimming at 10 at night, discover wonderful deserted beaches. I love socialising, gardening and grow my own veggies and passionate about agapanthus, food and cocktails feature a lot!!
Love contemporary interiors with comfort factor. Trendy bars but also tranquil beautiful settings.
I am a hotel inspector so understandable I expect very high standards and as you can read from the reviews our team are there to help, ensure your holidays is memorable and we do our utmost to help you. Whether its locked out, flight changed or volcano eruption !!
Michael and Deborah Potts purchased this apartment in 2008
BEACH SEA VIEWS-ON THE BEACH location location location sunsets with no interrupted apartments to block, NOT ON THE ROAD!
Semi detached with view of palm tree fountain and gardens, no traffic noise. as must as we live in rural Sussex..
- Winter weather fantastic March 19C - 23C and sunny with blue skies.
The architect had thought hard how to give great views and shelter from sunshine and wind . Long sunshine days. NOT ON THE ROAD SIDE AND SOUTH FACING.
The apartment is one of the few with all day sun with overhang for sun.
Sit and read a book, watch the sea or little ones on the terrace. Being raised up this allows greater views and exclusive feel and have its own wrap around garden.
Great Welcome, Unique setting of beachfront on the bay with seaview towards mountains,
- Calm shores of the mar menor
- All day sunshine and peaceful family setting with plenty to do or chilax
- We have guests who return year after year, some 5 times and work hard welcoming guests.
- Largest penthouse with fab views and south facing
- We are one of the lucky ones with sunset hours due to the architecture we have top terrace in sun and others do not.
- Loved the seaviews from the top terrace and sunsets
The bay is wonderful, calm seas and instance seaviews. South facing was one of two on the development that had almost surround sun. Fantastic sunsets to have our glass of rose whilst the children could go on bikes and on the beach until late into the evening. The Spanish way of life. Grassed area around the property, easy to come and go from the beach and watch children on the terrace (8rs+ ) play etc.
I have a hospitality background so used to hosting 5 star guests and this is very important that my guests have great communication, receive attention at all times, no matter what. That your holiday is important and that you enjoy our apartments and you will see what we say and more importanting what the reviews say about us is TRUE.
- Mar Menor all year round climate, sunbathing in March 21C - Yippee, blue skies and sunny days
-Includes free warm welcome and free Beach towels
- Includes welcome pack
- no additional charges, air con
- Free baby pack, why on earth do people charge
Less than 100 footsteps to foot your feet in sandy beach
- No longer being a pack horse to the beach, you are there
- More sunshine hours and more relaxation as not in a hot car with kids
- Easy of deciding, shall we go to the beach as its totally empty at 10.00 in the morning and staying until dusk at 21.00 BLISSFULL..................We choose the apartments because both are south facing and semi detatched which is a joy. Both have sea views and the children can come and go and have some independence. We can chillax.....
No other apartment on ground floor has the benefit of good sunshine hrs without being overshadowed by other buildings.
Very romantic setting. I have worked in the hospitality industry and try to help all my guests beyond what people expect.
Hi Deborah,
I'm sorry for taking so long to reply, but I've had a very busy day.
We would like to thank you for returning our deposit so promptly, it's greatly appreciated.
We had a lovely time in your beautiful home.
It is in a great location - and the boys loved the pool too. We tried the restaurants you recommended and were not disappointed.
I really can't think of a single thing that could be improved in your apartment - it is definitely five star.
Thanks for all your help - we all had a lovely holiday.
Kindest regards
We are just back from a week staying in Deborah and Michael's lovely apartment. We were 4 adults and 2 children. This apartment was very clean and in a great location, just on the beach and with a great shared pool. This ground floor apartment had great and easy access to the pool (and also the daily bakery van that would stop just outside with lovely breads and patisseries!). The apartment had everything we needed - even beach towels, sun loungers and spades and buckets. The kitchen had all the facilities we needed. We literally only had to bring clothes. It is in a very secure complex with very easy access to the beach. Deborah was fantastic at communicating before we went and while we were there. I would thoroughly recommend staying here. They also recommended some great places to eat nearby. British freeview and wifi in the apartment was a nice luxury too!
Lovely apartment. Felt like home. Pool just outside patio. What more could you ask
I was initially sceptical when I found that one of the blocks across the road (not in view of the apartment) was vacant, but the apartment is ideal, clean and modern.
It housed my husband, our two children, my parents in law and myself for a week and no one fell out, so it was sufficient enough and exceptionally well equipped.
The real gem for us was being directly poolside, as soon as the kids were mithering to get in the pool each morning I could sit on the patio and watch them with a brew. It is lovely and private too, not too busy.
I have never stayed anywhere where the other owners (both English & Spanish) were so friendly and helpful, this was so refreshing for us.
I was completely blown away by the communications from Deborah the owner, she literally went way above and beyond before our trip, during our trip (giving us her mobile number if we had any issues at all and other locally based contacts numbers) and after our trip too. Any queries or questions we had were responded to promptly. For that reason, I could not ask for more.
The bread man was a bonus. Everything easily accessible. The restaurant choice in the town square is varied and well priced - and at the places we ate, very good food.
Lovely apartment in a great location. We enjoyed being so close to the pool and eating meals on the balcony with a view of the sea. We didn't hire a car but found everything we needed in close enough proximity. The supermarket was a ten minute walk and the bread man was a convenient bonus. We swam in the sea every day and the kids tried different water sports. We walked four times to Los Alcazares and even took a bus to nearby Santiago. A thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing holiday. Thank you.
Our stay really began back in September 2016 when we first made contact to Deborah to arrange the holiday. She could not have been more helpful and she made us feel like 'guests in her home' rather than renters. I am pleased we opted for Apt 6 as its ground floor level allowed us to sprawl out across the lawn beside the lovely, incredibly well maintained pool. The apartment itself was spacious and all the extra touches were much appreciated - welcome pack, very comfortable beds, hot plate (for cooking the delicious local fish!), etc. We hired a car, which I would recommend, and visited Torrevieja, Murcia and Cartagena. We also enjoyed our visit to the huge La Zenia shopping mall although the closer Dos Mares shopping centre was great too. The 25 min walk to the main restaurant area in the evenings could be broken up with the odd stop at some the lovely chiringuitos on the promenade. All in all I would thoroughly and unreservedly recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in a beautiful part of Spain.
Great for the kids and the adults, great apartment right on the Pool and beach.
Would go back.
Los Alcazares and The Mar Menor: The Great Pool, the Little Sea... the so-called Mar Menor (Minor Sea) has been known by different names during the course of its history, all of which have described this singular natural phenomenon: a great coastal lagoon (originally an open bay), 170 square kilometres of warm salt water, the largest saltwater lagoon in Europe 7C warm
This setting has everything you need for golf and water sports enthusiasts: great weather, a constant breeze, calm and shallow waters (less than seven metres at the deepest point)... there is no wonder it is considered one of Europe's best golf and sailing destinations. Water sports enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice with sailing, canoeing, swimming, water skiing, jet-skiing, fly-surfing, windsurfing and every other type of nautical activity you can imagine. Golfers can play on the international stage at famous La Manga Golf Club.
Los Alcazares is a lovely Spanish town, which is open all year due to cycle along the prom and enjoy cafe culture, Must do is the restaurant on stilts as on a long jetty surrounded by water fantastic 360 view wonderful, early evening menu for toddlers, great romantics. Wonderful authentic toasta (tomatoes with bread) on the beach for breakfast, buy the very best fish at LA and hotplate it, amazing. LA is known for its fish and the fishmongers are excellent (opp town hall).
Other Activities: Relaxing and reading, for those romantics with toddlers have a wealth of play areas on the beach right next to lovely tapas bars so no one gets bored and teenagers and twenty something, my niece 19yrs did I know that there were some fabulous clubs in L.A and that people are very friendly as she comes from Earls Court I think she knows what teenagers like(Read what our guests say about us).
Golf: Golf heaven, some 26 golf courses within the area, we can email all their details for you to book tee off times directly without a middle man and supply telephone numbers.
La Manga Club, Roda Golf, Hacidenda del Alamo, Altoreal, Rel Club de Golf Campoamor, Desert Springs, etc etc we are ideally located for those who wish to have both beach and golf facilities. Just email for more information
Culture, Boutique Shopping and Amazing Tapas can be found in Cartagena 30 mins, Cabo do Palos is a fantastic fishing village also 30mins and has wonderful seafood restaurants, watch fishing boats come in or alternative, 30 mins to the nature park which has unspoilt beaches and rock pools to explore. Go prepared as nothing there apart from beauty, tranquillity even in August!
For those young families the area provides wonderful facilities. Because LA is flat is great for wee ones in buggies or older family members, a gentle stroll down the palm tree lined bay. The mar menor is an inland lagoon off the Med and so is calm shores for those slightly unsteady. It was a revelation to me as I had very young children, plus nanny and grandad!!

Top 10 Ways to Improve Indoor Air Quality
Written by: Catalogs.com Editorial Staff
January 23, 2012
Filed Under Home Improvement
Contributed by Jennifer Andrews, Catalogs.com Top 10 Guru
Although you may think your house, residence or work office is clean and safe, it may actually contain pollutants that are harmful to your health.
Toxic chemicals are often present in the cleaners you use to clean your house, furniture and walls; smoke; dust, mold and even existing radon. Decrease harmful health risks by following these top ten ways to improve indoor air quality today.
10. Natural Cleansers
Use natural cleaning products on your furniture, walls, floors and carpeting versus other commercial cleansers that may contain harsh chemicals and toxins.
9. Natural furnishings
In addition to natural cleansers, the surfaces you clean should also be non-toxic including furniture, organic mattresses, walls and flooring.
8. Laundry
Regularly launder your bed-sheets, blankets and pillow-cases to decrease the risk of dust mites.
7. Air filtering system
Research a whole house air filtering system that can help to improve your indoor air quality. Ensure you change filters regularly to maintain air purification effects.
6. No smoking
Avoid smoking in your house as this only adds to a toxic air environment.
5. Mold
Have a professional into your house to determine that there is no mold present or that there is a risk of mold development. If you do have mold, don't scrub it on your own. Mold must be removed by a state licensed and certified professional to avoid spreading spores throughout your home.
4. Plants
Adorn your house with indoor plants such as a fern or aloe vera. Plants aid in purifying the air by absorbing harmful chemicals and toxins.
3. Fresh air
Open your windows and doors on a regular basis to let in fresh air and decrease build-up of toxic chemicals. Consider air-conditioning if you suffer from allergies.
2. Low humidity
Keep the humidity levels of your home low, or around 30 to 50 percent to improve indoor air quality. Mold and dust mites seek out moist environments created with high humidity.
1. Door mat
A large door mat at your front door can help catch dirt and pollutants that are brought in from outdoors. Have family and visitors leave their shoes at the dirt to avoid tracking chemicals all over your floors.

Skowhegan Interview Project
BS: Yeah, or with a meme. It is easier to create laughter with an Internet meme, than it is with your physical body.
MK: Well, I think that might be true, but I've realized what I want to do is to become more personal, rather than broader. A meme on the Internet can be enjoyed by fifteen million people, right? Well I've begun to realize I have no interest in competing with that. I want to be happy with a kind of slowing down, a narrowing, becoming one with what I do and be happy with the people that I do reach, and do effect. And not try to go, well, if I'm effecting this group of people, I could expand that if I do this, and if I can, then maybe get an Internet presence, then I can expand even further, and further. I'm not trying to salve the pain of the fact that a cartoon can do something I can't do, it's just then, what can I do that the cartoon can't do?
Sarah Cain: ... there's definitely men in my lineage. I mean, but I'm hyper-aware of being a woman all the time, and also kicking harder, I feel like we have to kick harder. I just read – I don't know who writes these, but somehow I read my bio, I think it's on Artsy, and the last paragraph says that my mission is to overthrow the male lineage of AbEx, and I was just like [laughs], but it's an even crazier sentence, I was like, whoa, that's so nuts, I should maybe write to them, but also, eh, it's true, so [laughs]. Why not? ... and also, whose bio ends with that? So [laughs] it's amusing. And if you actually read to the end of someone's bio, you deserve a laugh, or something. [laughter]
Betye Saar: ... after Martin Luther King Jr., I just had this anger that was just overwhelming, and things were really bad in South Africa and it just seemed so horrible the way blacks were treated. And when I found this Aunt Jemima notepad... And I think I was talking about how Slavery had been abolished but still these derogatory images, slave-like images, were put in your kitchen, in your front yard to hold your horse, or to amuse you while doing something like cracking nuts or maybe functioning as a coin bank or something. And I said, I can change that. I can use Aunt Jemima. She's going to be against the war of Racism. So I gave her a rifle, and in the pad in the center I put a postcard I found of a Mammy with a white baby. So I said, the baby's skin is white but the features are negroid. So I said, this postcard is something else, this is about something else, it's about the sexual victimization of the black woman. She belonged to the masters, so that's the way that went, that piece is called The Liberation of Aunt Jemima.
Jennie C. Jones: Once they're out in the world it's up to the viewer. Most pieces of mine hopefully have a multitude of entry points. I think that that's a strength in the work. I can lecture for an hour about black paintings and the legacy of Ad Reinhardt, but if you don't see that when you walk in, and instead stick your ear up to one of the paintings because you think it's a speaker, then that's three times as exciting. That happened a lot at The Kitchen because the speakers were mounted on the ceiling; there was an acoustic moment where everything was a whirlwind and you didn't really know where the sound was coming from. I hadn't anticipated how many people would walk up and stick their ear next to it, but what's lovely is that the reverse happens: the panels are actually acoustic absorbers so the closer you get to them the quieter it gets.
Rebecca Morris: ... Williamsburg Paints—some of their blacks and browns have this really earthy chunkiness so when itturps out you see the paint's granulation. I really like that. I'm making the paintings with oil paint and not acrylic because I like this sort of stubbornness and the irregularity that happens with oil paint. I really love this quality in oil painting, so I'm always trying to highlight different aspects of it—with certain brushstrokes, or by painting something quickly. Sometimes I purposefully fill-in an area in specific way because I want a motion or direction left in the paint. Due to it being so thin, that motion is captured. It's a way to make everything look vibrating and different from itself.

The theme of this semester of In(queery) is direct action.
We hope this theme will help both new and returning participants respond to the reality we currently live in and provide a space for us to work through that reality as opposed to focusing strictly on the abstract.
This week's reading, and the first reading of the semester, will be the first chapter and first appendix of From Dictatorship to Democracy. We hope to use the appendix for loose guidelines of manifestations of the theme of direct action.
Our hope is that this theme will encourage more overt conversations about current events that would ideally lead to, as the theme indicates, "direct action." To that end, we also thought it might be interesting for you to bring in commentary on/from the Women's March that you found particularly affecting. Such as below:
