Squinting at the scoreboard above our high school's pool, I was surprised to see how many goals were posted on the "Guest" side for the evening's water polo game. My son and his teammates had been playing well and I was sure they'd scored a few more goals than the board showed for our home team. After a few minutes of confusion, I recalled we weren't originally scheduled to host the game. The location had changed because our opponent's pool was having maintenance issues, making us the "Guest" team in our own pool.
Turning to the fans surrounding me in the stands, I reminded them that our goals were being logged on the "Guest" side of the board. Most breathed a sigh of relief. Few of their sons had remembered to tell them this important detail before rushing out the door. Every time new fans arrived we told them the same information: "We're the guest team tonight." It's always helpful to know how to read the scoreboard accurately so you can cheer for the right team.
As I opened the pages to Jen Wilkin's Sermon on the Mount Bible study this week, my experience at the water polo game seemed like a fitting analogy. Reading Jesus' opening words in the Sermon on the Mount evoked that same disconcerting "everything is opposite" sort of feeling.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
"Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5:3-10, ESV)
In the world's eyes, few of the descriptions listed by Jesus would be considered a blessing—no one wants to be poor in spirit, mourning or meek. Few people in our world value righteousness, give mercy or show purity of heart. Fewer still strive to be peacemakers or feel blessed in the face of persecution. Most of the things our world values are completely opposite.
However, as followers of Christ, we don't see things from the world's perspective. We know we're just travelers passing through on our way to our true home in heaven. Jesus makes this clear in John 15 when He explains "If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world" (John 15:19a, NIV).
Our citizenship is in heaven. While we're here on earth, our purpose is to be a dwelling for the Holy Spirit to bring God's light into the world. (Paul talks about this in Ephesians 2:19-22, if you want to read more). In essence, we're on the "Guest" team while we're here and are called to invite others onto it with us by sharing the good news of Jesus with them.
Living the kind of opposite life Jesus describes is difficult, especially when the world around us doesn't see value in what we're doing. There can be lonely moments when we're the only ones in the stands cheering for the "Guest" team because no one else cares about what matters to God. What I'm realizing, though, is that being blessed doesn't always mean experiencing comfort or ease on this side of heaven. We live with the tension of knowing Jesus has claimed the victory over sin, death and Satan, but our world has not yet embraced this truth. When the game ends, however, all people will look at the scoreboard and see that the "Guest" team has posted the win.
I thank God for blessing me with fellow travelers on my faith journey who walk beside me to encourage and challenge me as we strive together to live like Jesus. It's a blessing to live an "everything is opposite" kind of life with others who know we're just passing through on our way to a better place. It's all about having our focus in the right place.

From Answers to Action: Post-Election Policy Making
From Answers to Action: Post-Election Policy Making is the latest installment in BGR's Candidate Q&A Election Series, which surveyed the mayoral and City Council candidates last fall about their positions on important issues facing City government. The new report consolidates and reissues the responses of the newly elected officials who responded to the surveys, which covered topics that persist as critically important. Examples include NOPD funding, street maintenance and land use planning.
We encourage citizens to revisit the issues by reviewing the BGR research and the elected officials' responses presented in this report. Where the officials express positions that clearly affirm or align with BGR's recommendations, we strongly urge them to identify – and take action on – the steps necessary to achieve those goals.

FIREWORKS were hurled at firefighters as they were attempting to put out a grass fire in Kirkby.
Youths lobbed the explosives over a hedge into the field in Valley Road, next to Kirkby golf course.
The grass and shrubbery had been deliberately set alight in the incident at 7pm last night (Tuesday, October 1).
The fire crew had to dodge the fireworks as they put out the blaze with beaters.
Eventually the youths ran off to the end of the field and fortunately nobody was injured.
The incident was reported to the police.
One fireman from Kirkby fire station said: "These kids obviously think it's fun and games but are totally ignorant of the dangers.
"If someone gets hit in the face with a firework it can cause permanent damage, or blindness."
Merseyside fire service spokesman, Alex McDougal, said it was a perennial problem that "gets worse by the year".
He added: "It's quite early for this to start happening, but every year firefighters come under attack, sometimes from very powerful illegal fireworks.
"We have tried very hard in schools to try to make these young people understand the dangers they are putting us in.
"Last year we came very close to having people seriously injured."
He said the fire service had worked with police, trading standards and customs officials to try to stop powerful Chinese fireworks being illegally imported into Britain.
Firefighters have also been visiting traders this year to persuade them not to stock certain more powerful fireworks.
He added: "We are doing our best to be proactive in spreading the education message, but it still seems to get worse."

Graham Spanier's Motion For New Trial Denied, Curley And Schultz Permitted Work Release
Berks County Senior Judge John A. Boccabella denied the motion of former Penn State President Graham Spanier for an acquittal or a new trial. He also granted work release to both former athletic director Tim Curley and former vice president Gary Schultz.
Spanier was sentenced to two months in prison and at least an additional two months of house arrest in June after a jury found him guilty on one misdemeanor count of child endangerment.
Prior to the start of Spanier's trial, Curley and Schultz each pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of child endangerment. Curley received three months of incarceration and Schultz received two months. They also have at least an additional four months under house arrest.
Both of the former administrators also applied for a modification to their sentences. Schultz's motion was denied, while Curley's was not addressed. They are scheduled to report to prison on July 15.

Leadership in its most basic form involves a person guiding and directing others so that a task or objective is met. Whether leaders oversee five people or fifty people, they need the ability to guide their employees in the right direction and develop them where improvement is needed. Great leaders are sincere and provide fair and constructive feedback to their team so that growth and success can occur within their organization.
Coaching and developing others is a continuous effort focusing on the broader, more long-term growth of individuals. A leader who encourages and inspires their team to grow to their potential understands the importance of promoting a culture of development.
Assessments measure several innate traits that can have an impact on how effectively a leader can coach and develop others. Research and experience have shown that four key personality characteristics, or scales, have a link to this competency:
- Need for Recognition – How much positive feedback and attention do the leaders at your company need, and how does this play into their coaching and developing approach? Leaders with a low need for recognition are able to perform without relying on praise and positive feedback to drive the quality of their work. Often when this is the case, those leaders are less likely to give credit and recognition to their team since they don't see it as a personal need. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the leader with a high need for recognition readily gives praise and support when needed and rewards the team's accomplishments. However, this comes with the leader's personal need for recognition, which may result in a sense of competitiveness and selfishness if they are not put in the spotlight, rather than striving for growth among the entire team.At their worst, leaders who fall very high on Need for Recognition compared to others may want the spotlight themselves, and may occasionally fail to share credit with their team. Leaders you want the most fall in the mid to high range on this scale. Within this range a leader is predicted to be rewarding enough to their team to drive improvement, but not so reliant on receiving recognition that they fall short on their own duties of coaching and developing their team.
- Positive About People – Are the leaders in your organization generally trusting of people, or do they have a tendency to be critical of others?When employees fall on the low end of this scale it means they are skeptical and cautious to trust others. A skeptical leader provides close supervision and insists upon quality performance. While these could be good qualities, they are more often than not paired with the leader being difficult to please and potentially micromanaging their team. They may even concentrate primarily on their team's negative attributes or assume that the team member will fail. In the high range, leaders are providing a positive and trusting environment and develop their team by viewing mistakes as opportunities to learn. As long as these leaders are careful that their trust isn't taken advantage of, they can easily win over their team and build relationships through solid communication.For this scale, the best leaders fall in the mid to high range. They'll support their team and promote positivity and an overall culture of development. Instead of being too skeptical or so trusting they're taken advantage of, great leaders show a balance between the two ends of the spectrum.
- Insight – If your leaders show little to no interest in their team's actions and motives, how can they successfully create an environment for coaching and developing? Trick question – they can't! When leaders fall on the low end of this scale they tend to overlook people issues when making decisions, and probably have a hard time understanding their team's developmental needs. These leaders see analyzing other's motives as a waste of time which has a devastating impact on how they coach.Leaders who have high insight have the capability of interpreting their team's feelings which makes coaching and developing much easier since there is a next-level understanding of each individual on the team. These leaders spend more time staying in tune with the team's motives, helping facilitate a more supportive type of growth.
- Need to be Liked – How accommodating your leaders are to their team depends heavily on whether they have the need to be accepted by others. Although leaders with a low need to be liked may be willing to disagree and take an unpopular stance for the good of the company, the potential liabilities may outweigh the potential positives on the low range of this scale. Leaders have a strong desire to win and are usually motivated by personal goals. They are often too quick to argue and their competitiveness may prevent working relationships with co-workers. (If that doesn't sound like a terrible environment for coaching and developing others, then I don't know what does.) Leaders who do the best coaching fall on the higher end of this spectrum. These are people who are approachable and likable. They are seen as cooperative and helpful, showing concern for others' growth and performance, and giving of themselves to benefit others. Because they show interest in the entire team and not only in themselves, leaders with a higher need to be liked generally aim toward coaching and developing.
Because these four scales deal with people-to-people outlooks and interactions, they help to decipher how good or bad a person will be at constructively giving fair and objective feedback, as well as continuously promoting success and progress within their team.
The ability to coach and develop a team is one of the most important assets a leader can have. Rewarding and helpful, positive and approachable, these best leaders are great at digging into developmental needs. They find constructive ways to promote growth and coach their team in a fair and motivational manner.

When someone says the word "carrot," don't you just naturally picture the long orange veggie with the green top? Carrots and the color orange are practically synonymous, but it wasn't always this way. Carrots used to be purple, and sometimes even white. How did the change happen?
The orange carrot you know and love came to be in the 1500's. But before that, in Asia and the eastern Mediterranean areas, they used to be purple! Nature created a new yellow vegetable by hybridizing the original purple kind with different wild varieties. This new version was then brought to the west, where the yellow mutants and other wild forms crossed to eventually produce the orange carrots we enjoy today.
Also purple carrots contained up to five times more phenolics and falcarinol than orange carrots and both compounds are being investigated for their potential to protect against cardiovascular disease, inhibit the development of cancer cells in the body and reverse the negative effects of high-fat diets.

Jake's Crazy Caterpillar
Jake's class is studying the development of caterpillars into butterflies in school. They have lots of them in several stages of development and have really gotten into this hands-on experience. He came home a couple weeks ago with an assignment to make a "Crazy Caterpillar" with the help of his family.
I recently got a Barbie Knit Hits knitting machine on ebay, with the hopes of using it to knit purse handles for the felted purses and tote bags I am making. But Jake and I came up with the idea of using it to knit his crazy caterpillar. He loved cranking it out. He picked out the colors, and did all the "knitting". It was a hit with his classmates (many of whom used egg cartons since it was one of the suggested ideas) No one else had a knitted one!

Developing an Alzheimer drug
MBM ScienceBridge GmbH, Georg-August-University Göttingen, University Medical Center (UMG) and MRC Technology (2017 renamed in LifeArc), a UK medical research charity, are collaborating on new therapy for neurodegenerative diseases.
MBM ScienceBridge GmbH, Georg-August-University Göttingen, University Medical Center and LifeArc, a UK medical research charity, have signed an exclusive license agreements for the development of a novel therapy of neurodegenerative diseases based on antibody targeting N-truncated amyloid beta peptides. The aim is to develop a therapy for Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
The licence negotiated by MBM ScienceBridge GmbH, the technology transfer organization of the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, will enable UMG to access the world-class antibody humanization expertise of LifeArc's Centre for Therapeutics Discovery and the work of its Therapeutic Antibody Group, led by Dr David Matthews and gives LifeArc the opportunity to use its renowned capability to take lab tool compounds and turn them into clinical candidates, which will then be licensed to the pharmaceutical and biotech industry.
LifeArc receives an exclusive worldwide license to the IP rights of UMG related to a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of sporadic and familial AD, based on a panel of unique antibodies developed by its scientist Prof. Dr. Thomas Bayer. LifeArc and UMG will then receive downstream payments dependent on the successful development and out-licensing of the antibody. This income will be used for further research within the organisations.

I guess this weblog post ought to have been done quite a bit earlier however as I've talked about in the proposal video, it simply felt very foolish to write down a love story that was ongoing. In the event you fail to get everybody on board with the company changes, you might be prone to face obstacles throughout the process. The decision to implement adjustments ought to come from the top level of the group. All management stage staff needs to be on board and able to take care of the modifications or you could face dissension throughout the workers.
She Says: We're not simply our bodies – we're our bodies, hearts, minds, and souls. So it's important to do not forget that what we do with our our bodies (the way in which we dress, talk, joke around, date, kiss, and so forth.) impacts our souls. The guilt, jealousy, and sexual ghosts from unchaste sexual encounters can seriously affect the way in which we see ourselves, the opposite sex, and sex itself. There are many regrets that come from not living chastity – but I've never met anyone who has regretted selecting virtue.

By Manki Patel:
No matter how grand my talk about believing in people is, I have, in truth, always been a cynic, distrusting people for their intent. Most often it is not monetary loss that drives cynicism but the frustration of being cheated. And until this recent trip, for some strange personal satisfaction I would always challenge myself to buy an orange for the price of an orange in a new place without being swindled.
This decades-old cynicism faded when I got a cycle rickshaw in the middle of Chandni Chowk's crowded Meena Bazaar. The streets of Chandni Chowk are very crowded, to say the least, with all possible forms of vehicles, shoppers, vendors, domestic and street animals causing the traffic congestion. The best method of transportation is on foot, but if you don't know where you are headed, it is best to take a cycle rickshaw and avoid getting lost in the lanes. Our driver bhaiya was a gentleman, and helped me get a rickshaw and bargain the tariff as he felt I looked too sissy for the smart rickshaw pullers. He promised to wait exactly where he dropped me which was on the main street opposite Red Fort. And since I did not want to share Hansel and Gretel's fate and meet the bad witch on my way back, I tried to stay alert and remember landmarks. The thing that stood out was the sea of people selling bundles of old clothes right on the street where I got the rickshaw. The common denominator between the bazaars of Chandni Chowk is the mass of people but the produce sold every few shops changes. There was a clothes market, spice market, kitchen utensil market, fast food market which even boasted of a Mac Donald's. It was amazing and saddening to see more than century old structures still standing squished between the new. They were clearly rundown, hunched back from the course of time and ill maintained because of the lack of funds by the occupants and missing restoration efforts by the government.
The remnants of one such haveli still stands on Gali Qasim Jaan, Ballimaran. This haveli was once home to the famous Indo-Persian poet Mirza Ghalib. It isn't a feat to find the haveli if you ask your rickshaw puller to drop you at the start of Ballimaran, past Ghanta Ghar and then walk down the inner bylanes to Gali Qasim Jaan. After a few turns, in a small lane you will spot the old haveli almost at the start of a juncture where on the side a sign marks the wide entrance door. There are two wrinkled old men that are employed as guards. The amount of wrinkles on their face directly reflects all that remains to be protected. As I walked through the door, I bent my head as a greeting as an attempt to converse with the guards, but I was met with stoic expressions — clearly they were unmoved by the pointless courtesy and my vain, touristy visit. There is no entrance ticket as there is little to see except for an open verandah, some old brick walls with a few pictures and, dated scripts and facts. But a lot remains to be felt for what has been lost because of our indifference towards preserving history. As I walked out of that place there was a bleating goat in the middle of the juncture, standing with a loose rope around the neck. For some inexplicable reason the sight aroused a vision of the past, the haveli in full glory and a vision of the future, the haveli and the goat sharing a hauntingly similar fate.
Walking back to the car, I felt curious eyes staring through the cubbyhole stores; some had even helped me find my way to the haveli. Now since I wasn't preoccupied with finding the route, I realized I had become a moving zoo for the inhabitants. It wasn't that I looked any different, I belonged to the same race, I spoke the same language, and my attire was like any other person walking that street. I stood out because I saw myself exclusive to the surroundings mentally and it was evident in my behavior. Anywhere in the world humans by nature are like most animals in the wild. Unless they feel threatened or have to fulfil a need, they are not out to cause harm. This can't be proved any truer than in a place with abundant people living together without boundaries as is the case in old Delhi.
Surprisingly, driver bhaiya also didn't feel like he belonged in the crowd, as the moment I got in the car he said "Yahan se chalo, yahan bahut ghadar hai". Seeing ourselves apart from the rest isn't a deliberate folly, but it definitely alienates us from the rest causing cynicism. There is a lot more to Old Delhi than I have bothered to write about. As a disclaimer for the reader it is by no means a complete account of all there is too see, rather it is an account of all that I choose to mention.
In the next few days, I took a private tour of the Rashtrapati Bhavan and also ate from Smt. Patil's kitchen, leaving with a story to brag to my friend about for some years to come. I had to pass through triple security checks and a thorough physical examination by the not-so-shy security personnel who only missed peering down my throat and up my nostrils. Had they also bothered to do that, they would have detected the onset of a cough with a bottled up nose. I was ushered towards Mr Gupta, my guide for the evening as soon as they tied the last few stitches in my security clearance by taking my mug shot to fully legitimize my visit. There was a special governors' meeting that day so part of the building was closed for security reasons. The tour started with a walk through the Marble Hall with old Viceroy and Governor-General paintings followed by the museum with ancient artefacts, gifts and tokens received by all the presidents of India, the kitchen museum was next and then the children's science museum which was specially opened by Dr Abdul Kalam. While in the children's museum Mr Gupta indulged my excitement by allowing me to weigh myself in a weight scale simulator for the planets in our solar system. And as a foreword to when inter planetary travel becomes possible, it's best to avoid travelling to Jupiter, it being by far the worst for body weight. My tour moved on to the current living family quarters of the respected president and then through some famous halls.
Rashtraprati Bhavan took nineteen years to build, and I can't exactly say Lutyens managed to impress me with his eclectic mix of Indian and British architecture. The design of the building clearly shows influences from the ancient Hindu/Buddhist, Mughal, Roman and Victorian style of architecture. Mr. Gupta took me to the famous halls the building houses which are the Banquet Hall, Ashoka Hall and the Durbar Hall. The walls of the banquet hall are adorned with huge portraits of all the previous presidents of India and it has a very long dining table which can seat over a 100 guests. Ashoka hall is covered in sparkles with its chandeliers and bright colored flooring giving it a very royal and grand appearance. The ceiling of this room is just as colourful, made up of Persian paintings depicting Nader Shah on a hunting expedition and various scenes from the court's life. Even though Ashoka Hall is currently used for most official ceremonies, personally, the Durbar Hall is my most favourite hall in the building. Â It used to be the main hall during the British rule for most ceremonies, but has now been orphaned. It has a very high double dome ceiling and in it you might even spot some vagrant pigeons that beat security. Standing in this room you feel the need to whisper because the slightest noise echoes. This was an architectural feature built into the design of the hall to account for the lack of microphones and loud speakers in that era. I was most awed by the only artefact in the room which my 9th grade NCERT history text book mentioned, the standing statue of Gautama Buddha in drapery from Mathura. It feels like a waste to leave such a room unused and instead use the overly-adorned Ashoka Hall. I could have spent an hour in the empty hall just staring wide-eyed at the statue, the long columns with bells which are a design take-off from Hindu and Buddhist temples, and a single chair for the President. But Mr. Gupta, noticing my sluggish steps, quickly nudged me forward. The Mughal gardens are breath-taking and way better kept. I managed to get a brief photo session on request, since shooting inside the building is prohibited. The maintenance authorities were very kind to arrange the staff photographer to click a few pictures. After which I was escorted to the Respected Mr. Comptroller's office, who very graciously offered me tea and snacks. To his delight, as I had promised I polished off everything that was served which included jalebis, hot gulab jamuns and spinach puffs.
With my tummy full, I walked out of Rashtrapati Bhavan, beaming, heading straight for the ice cream vendors around India Gate, to eat a 'choco bar' and re-live a childhood fetish. Delhi for me is familiar and unfamiliar in a lot of ways, exactly how it is for the current residing citizen's of the city. It is a known fact that over the last thousand years Delhi has been built and destroyed 11 times. And one can never know the old too much and the new too less. With these thoughts I left Delhi, content and discontent in mind and stomach for the next leg of my journey.

"Experience is the best teacher, and the worst experiences teach the best lessons."
Anurag Prakash Ray
Throughout my life experience, I have come to recognise that some of my most valuable life lessons – lessons about who I am and how I relate to others; were not taught in any classroom or lecture theatre, but by reflecting upon my own experiences and in particular, the tough experiences. It is often in examination and dialogue with a trusted friend or counsellor about these experiences, that we understand ourselves more. We learn about our strengths and weaknesses, and the pitfalls we will avoid should an experience of this nature reoccur.
I believe that this same principle can apply to our marriage and couple relationships -if we have the courage to go there. In my own marriage relationship, it is still the hardest thing to turn towards my partner after a negative incident and revisit it together. I fear being hurt again. My partner needs time to settle the frustration that rises up in him.
As I sit with couples in my counselling practice, I have found that my own couple experience is not so dis-similar to many other couple relationships. We prefer to avoid talking about the negative event for fear that it will create more of the same! However, if we concur with the belief that experience is the best teacher and our worst experiences teach the best lessons, then you may be missing out on what is ultimately your best opportunity to learn how to avoid those pitfalls that take you to places of conflict and pain in your couple relationship.
Revisiting a fight or regrettable incident together allows you to process the experience with the aim of greater understanding. You cannot do this effectively until you are both calm and able to talk about the incident less subjectively. Initially, this may not be possible, and you might consider seeking out a counsellor or a trusted and objective friend to help facilitate the conversation to help you become familiar with the process. Remember, you don't have to have this conversation immediately after the incident. Allow yourselves time for the incident to settle and its emotional energy to weaken before you agree to revisit the experience.
Learn to acknowledge that each of your realities is valid. Our perception of reality will be different but true to you personally. Rather than focusing on the 'facts' of the incident, follow these 5 steps:
- Share your feelings. Do not give any long explanation about why you felt that way and do not comment on your partners feelings.
- Describe your 'reality' and take turns. Summarise your partner's 'reality' after you have listened to them.
- Share what experiences or memories triggered and may have escalated the incident for each of you. Talk about why these are triggers for you each.
- Accept responsibility for your part in the fight or regrettable incident.
- Talk about how you could each do it differently next time – try the question, 'What is one thing I could do that would change this pattern?'
This process will take time and practice, however persistence is the key to learning how to navigate this conversation successfully.
Look out for the follow up blog that will describe this process in more detail.

Dodo School Pride designed for Threadless.com
T-Shirt designed for "Bad Mascot" Design challenge hosted by Threadless.com A message from Senior, Ralph Jacobs, Class of 1663: ... "Rah-Rah Raphus Cucullatus! (or more known as The Dodo Bird!) Here at Mauritius High, established 1598, our Dodo pride will never go extinct! We've got intelligent students with the best test scores in the school district; our athletes can fly higher than any team of students; and we shall always thrive peacefully without enemies or predators!. Long live the die-hard dodo birds of Mauritius High!" ... Life is short, and that was no different for the Dodo Bird species. However, it is clear that The Dodo Bird was special just as Admiral Jacob Cornelius van Neck discovered them on the island of Mauritius in 1598. We must trust that that the dodo bird lived their life in paradise. We should all make life our paradise no matter what kind of bird we are! Long live the spirit of the dodo bird!

Help Others and Become a Foster Grandparent
By: Jody Smith
Plenty of Boomers are looking for ways to give back. In fact, the U.S. Census has reported that it's anticipated that the number of Boomer volunteers will grow from less than nine million in 2007, to more than 13 million in 2012. And Baby Boomer volunteerism may increase far beyond this number in future years.
Those Boomers who are grandparents are often quite involved in the lives of their grown children and grandchildren. This is true in cases where Boomers live near their families, and even when their families live far away. The U.S. Government Foster Grandparent program has been taking advantage of this nurturing side of the aging Baby Boomer.
Thwarted Boomer grandparents who have limited or no access to their grandchildren, as well as Boomers who have no grandchildren, are prime candidates for the role of foster grandparent. As a foster grandparent you can care for premature babies and for children who are ill or physically disabled, nurture children who have experienced neglect or abuse, be a role model and mentor to young mothers and to disadvantaged young people, or even tutor children who are having difficulty in learning to read.
For the Boomer who longs to be a mentor and role model, this role of foster grandparent can be extremely satisfying. Thousands of local organizations are looking for these foster grandmas and grampas. Schools, faith-based groups, Head Start Centers are just a few of the groups who'd love to team up with grandparent wannabees.
The Foster Grandparent program welcomes these grandparents to work with children for a maximum of 40 hours a week. The program offers training and orientation through the group you're working with. It provides supplemental accidental and liability insurance to the Boomer while doing volunteer work. In cases where low income of the Baby Boomer meets certain criteria, a stipend may be available.
Does this catch your interest? Wondering how you can get in on it?
According to Nationalservice.gov, you must be 55 years of age or older. You should, of course, be a person who is interested in being involved with young people in a dynamic and caring way.
You can find more information on how to be a foster grandparent by visiting www.nationalservice.gov/about/programs/seniorcorps_fg.asp or http://www.seniorcorps.gov/about/programs/fg.asp/

'This business was once run by gentlemen.You knew where you stood. My word is my bond and all that. If you ordered a gas torchiere, you knew what light you were getting. Enough to read the Illustrated London News while your good lady does some embroidery. A nice green hue too. It is what people are used to.
'It's a proven science. Has served us well. And it can get a lot more efficient, I'm certain.
'But some of the claims these boys are making for their electrickery are outrageous. That it doesn't produce smoke, that it doesn't need a lamplighter to come around every night to illuminate it, etcetera etcetera. Mr Swan will say anything to get his invention into the Picture Post. The same with that Edison fool in the Americas. Sure you can buy some lamps from his General Electric Company but will it be around in a few years' time when the lamps fail and you need new ones?
'And who's checking these claims? No-one, sir. People will have bad experiences with electricity and come back to gas in droves, I'll warrant.
'They are also too bright, sir. And I hear from Paris that physicians there fear for the effects of electrical lighting on the delicate eyes of ladies and children.
'It is also said that the flow of electrons in the wires disturbs sleep, and is deleterious to ladies expecting child, bringing on an attack of the vapours.
'Don't get me wrong, electricity has its place. Perhaps in His Majesty's Empire where the natives are used to the strong sun. I also grant you it may have its applications in certain niches such as in the music hall or the bordello. But it shall never take over for general lighting.
'Put simply, we have too much invested in gas. We have mantle- making factories, coal-gasification machinery and legions of lamplighters on their penny farthings.
'Are we supposed to scrap all this equipment? Let the lamplighters end up in the debtors' prison? Move wholesale over to this passing fad? It won't happen in my lifetime.
'Serving girl! A glass of Mild and Burton and a nip of barley wine for my good companion!'

Over $1,000,000 was taken from the Mexican mint in Monterrey, and lies buried somewhere near Dead Man's Springs in far West Texas. Historians call it "well-authenticated," while those who have searched for it call it the "best-hidden" treasure in the Southwest.
The men limping into Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, attracted no attention. To all appearance they were just another bunch of traders. Their faces were heavily bearded and they were covered with dirt from many days on the trail. It was easy to see that their string of mules had come a long way, carrying heavy loads.
The mules were packing several tons of guano the men had gathered in the famed bat caves just south of Presidio Crossing on the Rio Grande. True, the bat dung didn't glitter like precious metals of gold or silver, but it nonetheless was nothing to be sneezed at in 1879. It would fetch the men $100 a ton in Monterrey, but more important, it would give them a legitimate reason for being in the Mexican city.
Evening was at hand when the men reached the edge of the city. A pleasant breeze had started to come in off Saddle Mountain in the distance, and the streets were filled with people venturing out now that the hot sun was lowering.
The men and their pack train passed through the sandy streets, yelling and waving their arms trying to keep back the kids who darted in and out among the mules. Off to one side of the center of town they came to a large market place and unloaded their cargo. Before night they had sold the guano. After hobbling the mules nearby they set out to get something to eat. And after that they planned to conclude the rest of their business — which was robbing the federal mint.
This fearless band of outlaws was made up of members of the notorious Estrada gang, but for this operation the leaders and brains were Jim Hughes, Zwing Hunt, Doc John Neal and a killer known variously as Sandy King or Red Curley.
Plans for the robbery had been made many weeks earlier, when the gang had holed up around Fort Davis, Texas. To equip themselves for the venture, they had attacked soldiers at the fort, cutting down more than a dozen of them when they surprised them without arms. They had plundered the army post of guns, various stores and a string of husky mules.
Then they had cautiously set out across the Rio Grande, stopping long enough to load the mules with guano which would provide them with a cover when they reached Monterrey some 400 miles away.
The robbery went off without a bitch. There was no bungling. The mint was cleaned out of more than $1,000,000 without anyone in the city knowing it until long after the bandits had fled.
The badmen bad loaded up with tequila before going over to the mint. Finding a pair of guards outside, they started a conversation and gave them a few healthy swings of the fiery tequila.
"Ah!" said one of the guards, smacking his lips. "This tequila must be the finest in all Mexico. We are very fortunate that you came along.))
The other grinned.
"Si, the night is long without anyone to talk to," he said. "We thank you very much for this social drink."
"Wal, take another drink with us," said Hughes. "We're just celebratin' a successful little business deal in town, and you fellows might as well join in."
The guards grinned and one of them reached for the bottle. The other guard turned to the door of the mint and pounded on it. When it cracked, he told the face appear.
"Ramon, get the others and come out into the pleasant night. We have some friends and they want us to celebrate a business venture with them."
Outside the mint the voices grew louder as the night progressed. Every now and then someone would burst into song, and there were many embraces of the Americanos from the north. It was finally agreed that in order to repay the Americanos for their fine hospitality, the guards would conduct them on a private tour of the mint.
"That's mighty obligin' of you", said Doc. "I always did want to see inside a mint. Come on, fellows, let's take 'em up on their offer."
As their hosts opened the door, the bandits followed them inside. Carefully, the door was closed.
"This way, amigos. Follow — "
The Mexican never finished the sentence as the bandits whipped out their pistols and cut them down in a matter of seconds. So unexpected had been their act that the Mexicans never had time to cry out.
One of the gang members sprinted out of the mint after the mules. The others began stacking sacks of silver bars just inside the door. In a short while the mules were loaded with all they could carry. Closing the door behind them, the bandits stepped out into the darkened street and departed.
Going out the same streets through which they had entered the city, they passed a church and ransacked it of several sacks of rubies and priceless gold and silver artifacts. Then they went on through the city.
Soon they were into the open, heading for the wide desert that lay between them and the Rio Grande.
They were many miles away before the slain guards were discovered. Authorities were baffled. They had no idea who had done it. Nor did they have the faintest idea where to begin looking for the thieves.
They looked at one another and shook their heads.
Why, it was just unbelievable that the mint had been robbed!
But when they looked at the riddled bodies in their pools of blood, the empty bins of silver, there was no doubt about it. None whatever.
Keeping their eyes peeled for Mexican soldiers, the bandits took the pack train through high mountain passes and across burning desert flats. Generally they retraced the route they had taken down from the Rio Grande. But when they approached the river on the return trip, they cut off from the trail and crossed the stream at Reagan Canyon. They followed the canyon until they came to a pass which took them to El Muerto Springs, (Dead Man's Spring) about 32 miles west of Fort Davis.
Then they set about hiding the rich trove.
But first the ringleaders had one more chore to do. Cold-bloodedly, they shot the Mexican bandits, including the famed Estrada, who had helped them pull off the spectacular robbery.
At Dead Man's Springs the bandits excavated a large hole and temporarily buried the Monterrey silver bars. Then, taking some of the rubies from the church robbery, they rode to El Paso for some hell raising and from there rode to Arizona Territory where they committed a string of crimes ranging from stage holdups to the waylaying Of ]one travelers.
Not until 1881 — two years after they bad buried the trove — did they return to Dead Man's Springs. With them they brought four Mexican miners they had hired to cut down through 100 feet of solid rock.
When the miners had finished the hole, they were murdered and tossed into it, along with the silver and other valuables the gang had gathered in Monterrey. Using gravel and water, the robbers mixed a sort of cement and seated the hole.
By now word had spread that they had succeeded in robbing the mint, and lawmen everywhere were hunting for them. Again they headed west, but this time none returned to the treasure site.
Before many months passed, all had come to a violent end except Hughes. He is said to have vanished in New Mexico, where, if that is where he did go, he wisely stayed. He never returned to the vicinity of the buried treasure,
Down over the years the treasure has been searched for. Researchers are convinced it lies buried somewhere around El Muerto Springs. Historians call it one treasure that is well authenticated. And treasure buffs who have searched for it call it the best hidden treasure in the Southwest, as well as one of the richest

since it's come to my attention recently that many of my musical selections have been encouraging you in this direction (al green, afternoon delight, midnight at the oasis... what can i say? i want you to seize life with both hands), it should come as no surprise that i'm telling you to go get some sweet love - vintage, that is. (first spotted on an adorable post over at apartment 528!)
it's hard to find vintage housewares. most sites and dealers are a total crapshoot, and the ones that are reliably cute are usually pretty pricey. i love three potato four, and i would love to do a post on them one day when i'm feeling particularly flush and can afford to pay $65 for an admittedly adorable seltzer bottle.
until that day comes, stick with sweet love for your affordable and on point gems. shop owner sarah anderson, an artist based in wisconsin, has a really beautiful eye for color and vintage finds, and a price scheme that is a godsend for the broke but fabulous. the shop has a blog, too; check it out here. a selection of my favorites:
Vintage Brass Owl Ruler Paperweight - $16
i love this display and merchandising: gorgeous
Vintage Miniature Hotel Bar Soaps In Blue - $8
Vintage Kodak Blue Gray Video Camera - $18
this angle reminds me of medio pollito, from a book of fairy tales i read to pieces when i was a little girl
Vintage Handmade Blue Bird - $9
Orange Printed Graphic Glass Milk Bottles - $16
if you please
Modern Cat Brass Sculpture Pair - $22
speaking of kodak, did you know they retired the kodachrome film yesterday? another death knell to aficionados of traditional film formats. in memoriam:
give us those nice bright colors/make you think all the world's a sunny day: a line that's particularly cruel given the foul weather we've been having lately. i feel like gaston in beauty and the beast when he turns lefou into a snowman and parks him outside maurice's house on stakeout. the sun has to come out sometime - and when it does...

Only 5 Million tax payers out of 12.8 million workers?
5 Million Tax payers supporting 13.8 million on welfare?
Adding this up I get to 26 million people that are visible in the system.
There are more people in SA than this. I guess 60 million.
That gives me 34 million people that are not working, and also not receiving any welfare.
This is truly hopeless.
The employment situation in SA is overwhelmingly desperate, economist Mike Schussler said.
He was speaking at the launch of trade union UASA's ninth SA Employment Report in Johannesburg.
"There's been a lot of pussy footing around in SA and a lot of investigation into the country's employment situation. Some institutions like universities have had a lot of nice things to say, but the fact is that over the last ten years we haven't got anywhere - so that means that we've not listened to the studies or we haven't done much."
Schussler added that employment growth in SA's formal non-agricultural sector added only 2,0 percent to employment numbers while overall employment including agriculture, informal and domestic workers, grew just 4,5 percent over the last decade.
"This is just not satisfactory as we need to see 3,0 percent to 4,0 percent growth in employment numbers every year."
The number of people choosing not to take part in the economy grew by almost 25 percent while the population in the decade from September 2000 to March 2010 grew by 12,7 percent and the formally unemployed by 3,6 percent.
"This is worrisome and shows a huge cultural change," Schussler said.
"In ten years time we'll have another 25 percent of the population saying they don't want to work and we must ask why."
Non-participation in the economy could be a result of discouragement but it could also be that welfare cheques were "ruling the roost and people sometimes have no need to work".
Schussler said more South Africans received money from welfare than from employment with 12,8 million people working—not all for money—and 13,8 million people receiving welfare payments from the proceeds of five million taxpayers.
"I don't know of any other country in the world where the recipients of welfare are greater than the amount of people who work."
