Following a bombshell report by Newsday that showed a disturbing pattern of discrimination by real estate agents against people of color in Long Island, the state legislature swiftly announced new regulations pertaining to the training of agents.
The new rules, approved by the New York State Real Estate Board before the holidays, make brokers responsible for ensuring that agents they supervise provide disclosure on fair housing and the New York State Human Rights Law to buyers, renters, sellers and landlord. This also includes prominently displaying notices of housing laws in offices and on brokerage and agent-created websites. In addition, classes on fair housing must be recorded with the recording kept for a year.
Then, in January, Mayor Bill de Blasio rolled out a plan to create a unit that will use secret shoppers to determine if there is housing bias and also pursue cases if New Yorkers are being discriminated against. Entitled "Where We Live NYC," the plan also aims to give more housing options to voucher recipients and the disabled and make investments in neighborhoods with a history of blight.
Meanwhile, real estate industry leaders have also been actively pushing for a fairer system, by offering training – and in some cases, re-training – programs on fair housing laws and how to ensure compliance.
The New York State Association of REALTORS (NYSAR), after seeing the Newsday report, immediately suspended the fair housing classes it was sponsoring.
"We then set a new requirement that any instructor wanting to teach fair housing in the future must complete a comprehensive re-training program," said Moses Seuram, president of NYSAR. "The re-training will be provided by fair housing organizations from across the state and who are totally independent of the REALTOR community."
The Real Estate Board of New York (REBNY) has also been encouraging its members to take part in classes it offers and is now expanding on the fair housing laws on the city, state and federal level.
"Everyone is entitled to equal access and opportunity when searching for the home of their dreams," wrote Jim Whelan, the president of the Real Estate Board of New York in a recent column in this newspaper. "It is our responsibility as industry leaders to ensure that these dreams can become a reality."
Neil B. Garfinkel, broker counsel to REBNY who's been teaching classes to industry professionals for the past 13 years, tackles the subject frequently as well as in an active legal hotline and in a "Fair Housing Fridays" eblast to members in which he answers questions. The board is also expanding its curriculum via a new subscription service for members who want to take a deep-dive into anti-discrimination rules and regulation.
The reason isn't solely the recent exposé either. Garfinkel has been seeing more attention paid to this issue over the past couple of years than he has at any other point in his career.
While discrimination against would-be buyers and renters might seem like an obvious thing for real estate professionals to avoid and to know all about, according to Garfinkel, much of the problem stems from agents' ignorance about what could be a violation of the law.
"I would like to think that our members have no intention of discriminating, but by virtue or lack of knowledge, they very well could find themselves discriminating," said Garfinkel, a partner at Abrams Garfinkel Margolis Bergson, LLP.
He gave an example of how at co-ops, a board has the right to reject someone without providing a reason, but at the same time it couldn't reject someone for a reason that violates fair housing laws. "So something that might seem evident on its face is not so evident," he said.
Additionally, along with racial discrimination, some landlords have been called out for not wanting to rent to recipients of Section 8 vouchers. However, an owner or agent of the owner must consider all lawful sources of income when qualifying someone. That said, Garfinkel added, this doesn't mean a Section 8 recipient is always necessarily entitled to an apartment if the voucher wouldn't cover the rent, only that their vouchers must be considered.
Agents also need to watch how they answer questions, Garfinkel added, or, in some cases, not answer them at all, if they're about demographics of a community or street. This could even include not responding to a question about if there are many students from a client who's looking for a quiet place to live.
"I would not answer that even though students are not a protected category" under the Fair Housing Act (FHA), said Garfinkel. If an agent is unsure if something would violate the law, then err on the side of caution, said the attorney. "The answer is, 'I'm sorry; I can't answer that' and then find out if it doesn't violate the FHA. Then, find out and get back to them and say, 'I could answer that.' We're all professionals, but you don't have to know everything."
But while some categories, like students or smokers, aren't necessarily protected legislatively, Garfinkel noted that the whole point of the law and the advocating for continued education and training by REBNY, is to ensure fair housing opportunities for all.
"Everyone should have the right to live where they want regardless of whether you are a member of a protected category," he said.
Eric Hamm, senior managing director at Corcoran's Upper West Side office, is also of the belief that agents need to stay one step ahead of discrimination laws and he said the subject is included in depth in training for the firm's agents. Additionally, they're made to take a fair housing pledge after coming aboard.
"In light of what we see happening in Long Island, this is something that's been on the top of our list of importance," said Hamm. "If it's not regularly communicated it's forgotten."
This training stresses that if asked questions about ethnicity, religion or age of community or building residents, the agent shouldn't answer.
"We can tell them about amenities, about a layout, if it's close to transportation and a Citi Bike station, but if people say, 'What are the neighbors like? Are there dogs in the building? Kids upstairs?' That's not what we do. Saying this is a predominantly fill-in-the-blank building — that definitely violates the Fair Housing Act."
Instead, Hamm says agents should suggest that a prospective buyer or renter visit the property's block during the evenings or daytime to see what the neighborhood is like.
He added, "In some ways we're the eyes and ears but we also have our blinders on. People ask us all the time, 'What kind of people live there?' Well, people live there."
Residential listings should also be clear of language that could indicate the home is geared towards a particular kind of resident. For example, a three-bedroom apartment with equal sized rooms shouldn't be advertised as being great for students or shares.
"We can talk about it being near schools like NYU or Columbia," said Hamm. "You couldn't say 'students welcome,' just as we wouldn't say 'families preferred or welcome,' or words that could be seen as discouraging to other kinds of people."
Like Garfinkel, Hamm has seen anti-discrimination efforts in housing ramped up only fairly recently.
"I've worked for big franchises and this was not a topic the way it is now. It was (previously) brought up during licensing, but after that it was never discussed," said Hamm.
He added, 'If this isn't kept fresh in (agents') minds, they may think they're being helpful, when in fact, they're not. If people don't get ahead of this, then agents won't know what they're doing and if you're a broker responsible for the actions of agents, it can get you in hot water really quickly."

In the sobriety/recovery community we are all on the same alcohol-free highway. Some of us just hopped into the car, and some of us are professional drivers with miles and miles of sober momentum. When do we stop counting the miles and the days? When does alcohol freedom become the new "normal"? Be hopeful, because at some undefined point, the daily frustration of being alcohol-free transforms to inner peace. Life without alcohol finds a new normal, where it is no longer front and center.
The first year of sobriety is like a road trip, where there is a toddler ( your booze brain) in the back seat. She's kicking the back of your seat, saying, "Are we there yet?" over and over and over again. At first, you are calm and patient…. little kids can't understand that sobriety is a life long journey. This little kid doesn't want to notice what's outside the window. Whether the kid is wearing a pointy wine witch hat, or has on a baseball cap promoting your favorite beer, this whining kid went from being "cute" to "pesky" after a day on this road trip.
"Are we there yet?"
"Not yet", you say.
"How about now?" again.
At the beginning of your alcohol-free journey ( the first weeks sober) you placate this pouty creature who is demanding to be the center of your attention. You do everything to keep your sober momentum flowing. You offer treats and turn on some distracting music…. bad news: the hat is tilted and the sippy cup is empty. Somehow, you persevere and hop off the highway for a rest. As the journey continues, you tell your passenger: "Sorry, kiddo, I forgot your special hat and your sippy cup at the rest stop, but we'll get by!" This puts the toddler into a crying tantrum, but you keep driving, despite the pleas to turn around and fetch them.
As the child is wailing about the missing sippy cup, you focus on the road ahead. You put the car on cruise control and trust the GPS voice that you are following the right path …. You are so focused on staying the course, so focused on that sober momentum that you aren't really seeing the views outside your window. You don't notice the cool stuff along the way… the beautiful leaves, the twisting roads, the deer staring back at you along the highway… No, you fail to see them, because all you see is what's in the rearview mirror: the little whiny drink now voice bawling, sobbing that it's NOT FAIR that you can't have alcohol in the car! "I WANT MY SIPPY CUP!". You grit your teeth and hold on to that steering wheel. You continue to drive. Sober momentum. Moving forward. Non-negotiable!
And at some point, between mile marker 3 and 365, the pesky whiny rascal fell asleep, and you start to feel calmness along the journey. You see the beauty along the way – the rolling hills that are growing into larger mountains, the majestic eagles soaring overhead. The car window gets rolled down and you enjoy the racing air and the sound it makes inside the car…. and then you realize that the radio is on, tuned in to your favorite radio station. You turn it up and find yourself singing along.
Maybe you can live with this smaller, peskier version of you, now that the sippy cup is long forgotten? When the nap is over and your mini-me wakes up, the wide-eyed child starts looking out of the window, too… no longer demanding to know "Are we there yet?". Somewhere along the journey, there has been a gradual transformation. This sober child is filled with inquisitiveness, asking if that was a boy deer or a girl deer, and how do you know, and why do the bugs splat on the windows, and can we stop and see the waterfalls, and WAIT! Did that sign say there's an ice cream shop up ahead…. can we get some ice cream, please, please, please?
When you are picking out lovely ice cream, you spot, out of the corner of your eye, an enticing display of new sippy cups… while you are on guard, the younger version of you doesn't notice…. and the sanity within the car is protected. The new journey begins. As this better version of you sits comfortably in the driver seat, you glance in the rearview mirror. The child is enjoying this journey too- No longer kicking the back of your car seat. You are both at peace. The focus on the missing alcohol, the sippy cup, is gone. While you remember that the pesky brat once existed, you now see that this little child is truly a treasure. You have grown to love each other, enjoying and celebrating every mile marker, every day.
Protect Your Quit. ❤

Sobriety is NOT a Punishment- You Can Do it Just for Today
I think of my drinking habits as simple as turning a light switch ON or OFF. Quietly, I recognized that my OFF switch is broken, period. But at about a week of being alcohol-free, the voice of temptation started swirling around in my brain, telling me I "overreacted" and that I could "moderate"…. well, there were many Day 1s, months ago, that were sabotaged by this voice. I am now strong enough to ignore this voice and to keep the switch OFF. No more internal debates.
Keep your oxygen mask on when the turbulent bumps shake you in your seat. Know that your plan to quit is stronger than a few bumps. You are on this alcohol free plane ride, wearing your mask and taking care of you first.
Look forward to the day when you can be the masked pilot, in control of your own aircraft, and maneuvering through the fluffy, well intentioned but dangerous clouds. As the pilot, you will see the best path up ahead and maneuver around the next bumps.
But even as a masked passenger today, holding on to your sobriety as the pilot negotiates the path for you, you are alcohol free, getting through the turbulence and seeing clear, sunny skies on the horizon. Sober momentum acheived!
Protect Your Quit.

Brexit will hurt Lancashire and the North West the worst, says Alistair Campbell
In an interview with the Lancashire Post, Campbell called for a second referendum and argued that people in Leave-voting Lancashire have the right to a final vote on Theresa May's deal."This campaign was only launched seven months ago," Campbell said, "and already in the polls the most popular outcome is a final say – so I just think we can persuade people.""Anything could happen," he said, when asked how he planned to get a second referendum. "The deal Theresa May is trying to get is being rejected by the EU, and by her own MPs, and by Labour MPs, so it can't get through parliament. I think at at some point – out of that chaos – I really think anything could happen."And Campbell does not think Labour will suffer in areas like Lancashire if they support another referendum. "I don't think that will happen," he said. "I actually think one of the reasons Labour are struggling in the polls is that they have just been trying to go in the slipstream of the government."Campbell is a vocal supporter of the People's Vote Campaign, which organised the march in Westminster on Saturday – attended by more than 500,000 people – to convince MPs and the public that Brexit is not inevitable."People are looking at the government's negotiations and they see that it's a mess. It's chaotic – people are talking about planes not flying and food and medicines being stockpiled, and and I think more and more people are thinking, hold on, this isn't right."Criticising the first referendum, Campbell said: "Both campaigns were terrible."You had Project Fear against Project Lies, and the lies won, okay? "I understand why people in Lancashire voted Leave, and I think it has actually less to do with Europe, and more to do with the idea that globalisation hasn't worked for them, that the elite in London doesn't listen - so they gave it all a kicking. "But whatever they voted leave for, Brexit is going to make their problems worse not better and that is going to spill over into absolutely everything – public services, schools, hospitals. "Now, that is partly about the economy, and just saying that is not Project Fear – it is what is going to happen."But with only six months until the scheduled leave date of March 2019, he admits that time is not on the People's Vote's side. "It's true that it's tight – I think ultimately, at some point we're going to have to ask the EU for more time to be able to hold another referendum."Reacting to the government's refusal to hold another referendum, Campbell said: "The reason is that they think they'll lose – they know the public have changed their minds. "Democracy doesn't work like that. Democracy is a process. If the public decide that actually, this is not what we want to happen, this isn't what we meant – far from it being anti-democratic to have another vote, it's anti-democratic not to have one!"He went on to blast the Conservatives. "They've abandoned saying 'we're doing this because you'll be better off, because your kid's school will be better, now they're just saying that we've got to do it because you voted for it. The fact that that is the only argument they've got is damning."Speaking at Turf Moor, home of his beloved Burnley FC, Campbell said the motive behind Brexiteers should concern Lancastrians."If you look at the people who are really pushing for Brexit now – the Johnsons, the Rees-Moggs, the Farages – this is the right wing, and Brexit is a right wing project."They have a vision of Britain that they've never been able to get in an election; uber-low tax, uber-low regulation, selling off the health service to the Yanks – to complete Thatcherism basically, that's what it's about. "And that isn't going to help Preston, or Burnley, or Blackburn, or Lancaster – it's going to hurt them, far more than it will ever hurt London or the South East."Pressed on the reasons why Lancashire is the 7th most deprived area in Europe, Campbell replied that "that is not to do with the EU, that is to do with Britain, that is to do with inequality in Britain."And how does he plan to convince Lancashire's large Leave majority of that?"Well," Campbell replied.'Take EU structural funds. That money is incredibly important to the economy in a region like Lancashire."Since the government is unable to match the EU funds, once people here understand what it means when that gets taken away – and there's nothing else coming in – they're going to change their minds."And if Remain loses the next election? At that point, Campbell says, it's finished. "If we do get the second vote though, I think the result will be very different, I think the polling shows that, even in here in Lancashire, public opinion is shifting."

On the heels of its wildly successful EZ Squirt colored ketchup (see pack world.com/go/c018), Heinz just launched two more ketchups similarly packaged. The two newcomers are both filled on the same Muscatine, IA, line used for EZ Squirt. "There are definitely economies of scale for us because we fill the product at a facility that was already equipped with the machinery and technology needed to produce this product," notes Wayne Cleary, manager, packaging material systems for Heinz North America.
EZ Squirt Mystery Color hides three new "mystery" colors, Passion Pink, Awesome Orange, and Totally Teal, within a white-pigmented bottle that gains its color from white polypropylene pellets added during bottle making. Consumers don't know what color they've bought until they remove the induction-sealed foil cap liner.
Except for the white pigment that preserves the mystery, the bottle used for the Mystery Color line has the same six-layer coextruded makeup used for the EZ Squirt flavors. Both bottles are made by Pechiney Plastic Packaging (Chicago, IL). Also repeated on the Mystery Color line are the same closure and label used on EZ Squirt. The injection-molded polypropylene closure is from Creative Packaging (Buffalo Grove, IL). It includes a PP base and linear low-density polyethylene spout. The 2-mil oriented polystyrene full-body shrink sleeve label is from American Fuji Seal (Bardstown, KY).
Carrying a $1.79 suggested retail price, the 19-oz EZ Squirt Mystery Color products will be available for a limited time, as only one million bottles were produced. In comparison, Heinz says it has sold more than 20 million 24-oz EZ Squirt bottles since October 2000.
The other new ketchup from Heinz filled on the Muscatine line is a flavored product called Kick'rs. Holding 19 oz like Mystery Color and available in three flavors for about $1.99 each since January, Kick'rs comes in a Pechiney bottle with the same six-layer coextruded structure as the EZ Squirt bottle. Both bottles are translucent white. Also similar is the American Fuji Seal full-body label. The label was designed by Lipson Alport Glass & Associates (Cincinnati, OH). Seaquist Closures (Mukwonogo, WI) supplies the 38-mm injection-molded PP closure.

This week, officials from 16 countries will gather in Hyderabad's International Convention Centre for negotiations related to an expansive trade deal that endangers hard-won public health safeguards in India's national intellectual property laws.
The known as the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) involves 16 nations, including the ten ASEAN member-states, as well as India, China, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand and Australia.
Draft texts of the trade agreement are being concealed from the public and negotiations have been ongoing without transparency or opportunity for public engagement. Despite the absence of democratic oversight or input, the outcome of RCEP's negotiations will require member countries to amend their national laws to meet its obligations or face severe economic penalties.
Leaked text from a 2015 draft of the RCEP agreement revealed that Japan and South Korea are seeking significantly ramped up protections for intellectual property, which, if adopted, would have devastating consequences for public health and access to medicines in the region and beyond.
Currently, countries involved in RCEP negotiations must provide protections for intellectual property in line with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) and other trade agreements of which they are part.
To date, India has been a global leader in adopting and utilising TRIPS health safeguards to balance rights of inventors with health rights. These safeguards have helped ensure the refusal of unmerited pharmaceutical patents that have been filed in India. Indeed, the refusal of unmerited patents on three HIV drugs alone in India has resulted in over half billion dollars in cost savings in five years for global purchases of these medicines – money that can be reinvested to treat over one million patients.
Yet, intellectual property provisions contained in RCEP seek to remove or undermine the ability of India and other member countries to adopt and utilise TRIPS health safeguards, while simultaneously seeking to extend the length of patent monopolies and expedite and expand mechanisms to enforce them.
Critical safeguards provided under TRIPS to protect public health include (among others) the sovereignty of countries to adopt stringent patentability criteria to guard against the granting of unmerited patents, as well as opposition procedures that allow third parties (including civil society and patients) to oppose patent applications and granted patents.
The majority of pharmaceutical patents filed globally are for minor modifications of existing compounds or for secondary claims. Very often, these types of patents do not provide any additional therapeutic benefits to patients and/or use commonly practiced scientific techniques that are in the public domain.
As each new patent is granted 20-years of monopoly protection, secondary patents in particular are used as a business strategy by branded companies to delay generic competition (and its downward pressure on prices) for decades after the original patent has expired. Simultaneously, industry pursuit of secondary patents on profitable products has incentivised R&D investment towards the extension of commercial monopolies, rather than addressing unmet health needs.
Provisions contained within the leaked RCEP text threaten to undermine India's domestic efforts and sovereignty to guard against poor-quality patents. RCEP introduces language that may force India to limit eligibility to oppose patents and reduce the grounds on which patents can be opposed.
RCEP further seeks to extend and standardise the grace period allowed to patent applicants when assessing the novelty of an invention claimed in a patent application. This extended grace period would mean that a prior publication that would otherwise show the lack of newness of an invention claimed in a patent application would not be permitted as part of the examination or opposition evidence. Such an extended grace period is designed to make patenting easier for companies.
Yet, while simultaneously expanding the complexity of patent examination and limiting opposition procedures, RCEP seeks to establish obligations on countries for expedited patent examination. Patent offices are too commonly judged on the speed with which they grant patents, rather than the quality of patents that they grant. Expediting patent examination would lead to an increase in the granting of poor-quality patents that undermine countries abilities to protect public health rights.
India must oppose any demands in RCEP that calls for expedited patent examination, limiting the grounds and eligibility for filing patent oppositions and examination standards that benefit patent applicants. Any language that seeks to limit extension periods for least developed countries, requires data exclusivity and patent term extensions ("restoration") also needs to be removed.
To date, India has been a global leader in creating a patent law that balances the rights of inventors and public health. The country must defend its progressive patent law.
And, if trade negotiations are truly meant to benefit society then they must be freed from their shrouds of secrecy and brought into the public domain. In this vein, a process for public oversight and input into RCEP's negotiations must be urgently established. Otherwise, like many trade agreements before, RCEP will amount to corporate capture of India's patent system.

On March 26, US Representative Ro Khanna and PNND Co-President Senator Ed Markey introduced into the US Congress the Investing in Cures Before Missiles (ICBM) Act.
The Act would stop the further development of the Pentagon's new $93-96 billion ground-based strategic deterrent (GBSD) intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) and direct those savings towards development of a universal coronavirus vaccine.
The ICBM Act (details) is one a number of initiatives from PNND members, the Move the Nuclear Weapons Money campaign and others to slash nuclear weapons budgets and investments and re-allocate these to addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, climate protection and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
ICBM Act: Press release from Senator Markey
- Life-extend the current Minuteman III ICBM and redirect $1 billion of the unobligated balances to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to conduct or support research for the development of a universal coronavirus vaccine;
- Transfer unobligated funds for the National Nuclear Security Administration's W87-1 warhead modification program to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to research and combat emerging and zoonotic infectious diseases;
- Prohibit funds authorized for fiscal year 2022 from being obligated or expended for the GBSD program or the W87-1 warhead modification program; and
- Commission an independent study by the National Academy of Sciences to explore viable technical solutions to extend the Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile to 2050, to include force structure changes and the non-destructive testing of missiles.

Finding out that your child has a condition such as ADHD can be difficult, to put it mildly. For many parents, it's life changing. When my husband and I learned that our first child, Noah, had autism, it was an emotional time. We were both pressingly busy, and I was already pregnant with our second child. Yet we knew we had to quickly learn an enormous amount in order to make wise decisions and get Noah the best care possible.
Dealing with Diagnosis News
Parents who get this kind of news often go through classic stages of denial, depression, guilt, and anger. You may feel overwhelmed by your child's diagnosis and not know where to turn. But oddly, at the same time, you may also feel relieved. If you've spent months trying to find out what's wrong, getting an accurate diagnosis with an actual name can make you say, "Finally!" At least you know what you're dealing with, even if you don't yet know how you're going to cope with it.
All of these feelings are normal, and talking to other parents in similar situations can help immensely. Your child's doctor or school staff may be able to help you meet other families who are dealing with many of the same problems and challenges. You can also connect with other parents online. Local networking can lead you to support groups that can help you, your child, and the rest of your family cope and adjust better.
Wrapping Your Head Around It
Many parents will tell you that it's essential to take things one day at a time -- to stay focused on the present rather than melting down about the future. It will also help your mental state if you begin tackling your first mission: getting the equivalent of a PhD in your child's condition. Immerse yourself in information from responsible sources. Your growing knowledge will make you feel empowered, and that will help you regain a small but precious sense of control.
Your first sources of info should be your pediatrician and the specialist who helped make the ADHD diagnosis, if there was one. Lean on both of them. Ask them for any and all information they have available, whether it's books, pamphlets, or videos that can help bring you up to speed on your child's condition. There's a lot of information out there, so don't be discouraged if you need a wheelbarrow to transport everything to your car!
Ask your child's doctors as many questions as you can think of, and buy a notebook in which you can write concerns and keep track of important information, such as medical appointments, tests, results, and treatments your child may need. Ask them to recommend good Web sites for basic information, support groups, blogs by parents in your situation, and other helpful resources. At the very least, knowing you are not alone is comforting and will give you strength.
Sorting Through ADHD Treatment Options
While ADHD can't be cured, it can be managed with a combination of drugs and behavioral therapy. You'll want to make sure your child's doctor is one who specializes in ADHD and has lots of experience treating the condition. It sounds odd, but a class of medications known as stimulants has been used for more than 50 years to help ADHD. Nonstimulants and antidepressants are also options. It's impossible to predict which will help or whether your child will react badly to some of them. Not all children respond to the first medicine prescribed, and many come with side effects, so don't be discouraged if you need to try several different meds to find one that works for your child. The goal is to decrease the ADHD symptoms without causing unwanted side effects.
Medications should always be taken in the lowest dose that produces the desired results, which will minimize side effects. The dose should start low and, if necessary, be increased slowly under the watchful eye of your doctor. Medicine for ADHD only controls the symptoms and only on the day it is taken, but it will help your child pay better attention and complete schoolwork. About 80% of children who need medication for ADHD still need it as teenagers, and about 50% need it as adults.
Benefits of Behavioral Therapy
For kids with ADHD, behavioral therapy typically includes setting up a system of rewards for positive behavior to help children build self-esteem. To me, this type of therapy is almost always beneficial because your child will learn how to be better organized and how to break down large tasks into smaller, manageable pieces with the help of timetables and schedules. Many schools have developed special programs to help kids with ADHD.
Depending on the severity and type of ADHD, your doctor may recommend behavioral therapy, medication, or a combination of the two. You can also try parent training, which not only teaches you how to help your child with ADHD but also helps you cope with it.

A random google search for 'hoarding' nets 18 million hits. The results mainly link to medical sites. The reason; hoarding is a compulsive disorder in which people struggle to discard of stuff. The Mayo Clinic explains;
"Hoarding disorder is a persistent difficulty discarding or parting with possessions because of a perceived need to save them. A person with hoarding disorder experiences distress at the thought of getting rid of the items. Excessive accumulation of items, regardless of actual value, occurs."
Approximately 5% of the world population suffers from compulsive hoarding. Hoarding is not a lifestyle choice. It is not a fad or trend, despite the relatively recent rise in reality tv shows raising awareness of this disorder. And compulsive hoarding is definitely not pleasant for those who live with or care about someone who suffers from this psychological disorder.
Some people may become obsessed with one item, while others become obsessed with having as many things as possible.
The Problem
Hoarding is not having an untidy home. It is not classified by a small amount of clutter taking over a corner of a room or even one countertop. Someone with a real problem is putting their lives at risk, through extreme amounts of filth (ie. feces and urine from animals and rodents, dust and mold), from the fire risk associated with vast quantities of flammable material (ex. piles of newspapers and magazines), and from the risk of the accumulated stuff toppling and trapping a person. Often there can be tripping hazards and the danger of structural damage to a home from the sheer weight of materials. Not only does this put the homeowner at risk, but also anyone entering the home, from other family members, to friends, and even emergency personnel like firefighters or other first responders.
Telling someone they have a problem is not the answer. Pointing out that the collected items are junk or worthless often creates stress and alienation for the person suffering. Oftentimes the individual with a problem doesn't even identify that they have a problem, or is unable or unwilling to part with their things, all of which they perceive as valuable. It is not rational, but is part of the illness. Recognizing it as such, is part of the solution.
Possible Signs of Hoarding Disorder:
- inability to get rid of things, regardless of value
- extreme emotional attachment to stuff
- perceived value of items now or in the future
- cluttered space to the point where rooms are unable to be used for their intended function
- piles and stacks of items
- items accumulating to the point of spilling into other areas of the home, outside of the home, or into vehicles
Emotional & Psychological Symptoms:
- anxiety
- depression
- indecision
- shame
- poor organizational habits
- procrastination
- easily distracted
- withdrawal
How You Can Help
If you suspect that a friend or loved one may be suffering from hoarding disorder there are things you can do. If you worry about the physical integrity of a home, the London Fire Department can send an Inspector to assess it for risk. Cleanup is only part of the solution though. To reduce the risk of the compulsion continuing, you need to address the causes of the illness and ways it can be treated, including cleanup, counselling, and coaching support. The London Middlesex Health Unit provides a list of other resources and organizations in London where you can turn to for help.
Recovery is not a one-step process. It is a gradual understanding of why the problem happened in the first place and steps to achieve healthy alternative thought processes so the problem behaviours stop and do not remanifest again. While Load of Rubbish is more than willing to assist families with the cleanup process, further counselling will help to ensure healthier coping mechanisms are put in place to make sure hoarding doesn't take over your life again.
And that is the ultimate goal, because mental health matters to us all.

The UK Department of Health is planning to scrap its Infant Feeding Coordinator posts and its support for National Breastfeeding Awareness Week. Please send a message to the Secretary of State for Health asking him to reverse this decision, not least to save taxpayers money at this time of limited budgets.
Update 10 February 2013: The Department of Health scrapped the posts and its support for Breastfeeding Week in 2011.
Many countries have similar posts as part of their commitment to the Global Strategy for Infant and Young Child Feeding and the Innocenti Declaration. This work is being stopped in the UK to help cut the country's budget deficit, but will lead to medium and long-term costs to the health service and growth in health inequalities. The National Health Service spends millions of pounds every year treating some of the extra illness amongst formula fed babies (according to NICE, the National Institute of Clinical Excellence).
The Department of Health was not only promoting and supporting breastfeeding, it was working to help mothers who bottle feed. The Infant Feeding Coordinators have just updated the guide to bottle feeding that Baby Milk Action used the basis for the guidance in the Infant Formula Explained DVD produced with partners in the Baby Feeding Law Group (alongside guidance from the World Health Organisation). The DVD is in line with the updated guidance and suitable for use in UNICEF Baby Friendly accredited facilities.
Please complete the following form that Baby Milk Action will forward to the Secretary of State for Health. We will email you with news of progress (you can unsubscribe from our email alerts at any time).
Suggested message:
Dear Mr. Hunt,
I am contacting you to ask for your urgent intervention in plans at the Department of Health to abandon important work on infant feeding.
The work the Department of Health was carrying out in promoting National Breastfeeding Awareness Week and through the national and regional Infant Feeding Coordinators - all of which were scrapped in 2011 - have been important in improving breastfeeding rates. As NICE has calculated, even small increases in breastfeeding rates save the NHS substantial sums of money due to reduced rates of illness.
Breastfeeding also plays an important role in reducing health inequalities.
The infant feeding team has also conducted valuable work to reduce illness in babies fed on formula through the production and dissemination of information on how to reconstitute powdered formula correctly.
While there may be immediate savings in cutting this work, the taxpayer will have to foot the bill for the unnecessary suffering that may result.
It is welcome that the proposed Public Health Outcomes Framework includes indicators for breastfeeding rates. It is very important that this data continues to be gathered, not least to show the areas of the country where resources can most effectively be targeted. If there is any move to remove these indicators from the Framework, people may question if this is to hide the impact of the cuts being made to the infant feeding work at the Department of Health. I ask that you resist any suggestion to remove these indicators.

John & Nigel McKinnon were members of the crew of SS Athenia when it was sunk in 1939
My wifes two uncles were members of the crew (SS Athenia) when it was sunk in 1939. I wondered if you may have any information their names were John & Nigel McKinnon. We once were told of a book in the library called a Night of Terror which was about the sinking but were unable to locate a copy. Anything would be gratefully received.
I only have a list of the 19 crew members of Athenia who died on the 3rd. of September 1939 when the ship was sunk.
John and Nigel are not listed so they must have survived.
The book you are seeking is called: Tomorrow Never Came. Sinking of the SS Athenia. It was written by Max Caulfield, published by Norton of New York in 1958, here is a second hand copy available.
Hope this is of some interest to you.
Best wishes,

"Such a right, if conceded, would reduce Turkey to the status of a Russian protectorate. "[10]With this in the minds of other great powers, Russia has unknowingly intensified the situation substantially. Nonetheless in order to achieve these demands as well as retrieving the keys to the Holy Places, a special mission was despatched, led by Count Menshikov, to Constantinople. Menshikov's manner however, with dealing with the Turks, was not of a negotiate type but more of an attempt to dictate to the Turkish government. This diplomatic pressure by the Russians on the Turks raised many queries in Britain, which Nicholas however, did not notice.
More and more of the British government began to back the support of Turkey, and even Aberdeen was seen to be getting concerned, especially if Russia won control over Constantinople which would allow Russian warships to come and go as they pleased through the Straits. In the event of all this, the Sultan seems to appear an innocent victim of the controversy, however Keith Randell would have to contest: "it can be notified that Napoleon was manipulated by the Sultan who had seen a way of ridding Turkey of the Russian threat which can be said to have been hanging over them for 25 years"[11].

Turkey kept on rejecting the demands of Russia, with each demand becoming more modest, which finally infuriated the Tsar who broke off diplomatic relations with Turkey. Aberdeen, influenced greatly by Palmerston, Russell and the British press, sent a naval fleet to Turkey as a gesture of support. France followed suit, and by opposing Russia, Britain and France surprisingly found themselves as allies.
The outbreak of war at this stage was a distinct possibility, and apparently unimpressed by the British-French action Nicholas chose to increase pressure on Turkey rather then back off to the pressure he himself was faced with from Britain and France, and save humiliation. Mistakenly again, he was confident in Prussian and Austrian support and therefore to make the Turks concede to the demands which Menshikov had made, Russian troops, sent by Nicholas, occupied the Danubian Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia.
Austria and Britain particularly, were alarmed at this move, firstly due to the control Russia had over the mouth of the Danube and secondly the fear that Russia had laid the foundations down in order to sought the complete domination of the Ottoman Empire. It was Austria however who attempted to defuse the crisis by organising a conference held in Vienna. Yet only Austrian, Prussian, British and French diplomats attended leaving the Sultan and the Tsar unrepresented.
They aimed to satisfy the Tsar's honour while safeguarding Turkey's integrity and the decision reached was that the sultan should make a few concessions to the Tsar whilst in return Russia would leave the Principalities. The responsibility had seemed to have shifted entirely onto the Sultan as Nicholas, now aware that help from Austria and Prussia was unlikely, accepted the proposals. It can be argued therefore that the Sultan could have resolved the entire situation into a peaceful and sensible solution, yet it was not to be with the sultan insisting on a number of amendments to the note.
Here, we can note again, that although the Turks may appear to be the ill-fated victims of great power politics, they were by no means innocent of hostile intentions as Alan Farmer would agree: "Western support in the mounting crisis presented them (the Turks) with a unique opportunity to take revenge on their traditional enemy Russia"[12]. A new country has consequently arisen in being perceived as a possible culprit for why The Crimean War occurred. For Turkey, it seemed the perfect time to rid them of a country who had persistently been causing problems for the Ottoman Empire.
These amendments however, were of course rejected by the Tsar and attempts to find a diplomatic resolution to the dispute had suffered a major setback. As a result, the Tsar, knowing that war was a possible likelihood, pursued his on-going task of establishing allies. Meetings were consequently organised by the Tsar with the Prussian King Frederick William IV and the Austrian Emperor Francis Joseph in an effort to win support. The outcome however was not what Nicholas had hoped for with the countries only willing to remain neutral if war was to brake out.
Additionally these meetings seemed to worsen matters on the whole, especially for the Tsar, as Britain and France knew of these meetings that took place but not on what was decided, and fearing the worse; that the three rulers had hatched a plot to divide the Turkish Empire, the British and French governments sent its fleets to Constantinople. This event can strongly heighten the tension and mistrust surrounding the countries into an outbreak of war and strengthens the fact the Crimean War was a result of a series of accidents.
Russia's occupation of the Principalities created vast Turkish nationalist resentment, placing huge pressure on the Sultan to act. Consequently in late October, Turkey declared war on Russia making the country itself seem the aggressor, yet is that a fair assessment? For Russia can be argued to have antagonised Turkish troops into crossing the Danube and launching an attack. The Russian response however, saw them sink part of a Turkish fleet causing the death of 4,000 Turks, creating a storm of protest especially within Britain and France, generating pressure for both governments to intervene on a larger scale.
Aberdeen however was still resilient of the prospect of war and Palmerston's view on silencing the Russian arrogance once and for all was increasingly supported intensifying the pressure which Aberdeen was faced with. Napoleon first stepped up and responded, by ordering a French fleet into the Black Sea, the British soon followed suit, and both countries declared that their fleets' job was to protect Turkish shipping. Efforts to avoid war soon became hopeless when the Tsar rejected a proposal for a six-power peace conference.
Nicholas instead pursued his efforts in gaining the two German powers to offer their armed neutrality, he sent Prince Orlov on this mission to Vienna and Berlin, but both refused. The final stages before the war broke out saw Britain and France sending Nicholas an ultimatum demanding the withdrawal of Russian troops from the principalities. With no surprise however, the ultimatum was ignored, and on 28th March 1854, Britain and France declared war on Russia. To conclude, the series of accidents and misunderstandings can only contribute slightly to the causes of The Crimean War.
Indeed Britain and France's misinterpretation of the meeting between the Holy Alliance members and the Tsar's numerous blunders are crucial factors in the build up to war. However the causes of the war seem to not rest on an individual country or event but on a number of these categories. Each country, to a certain degree, played a part in causing the Crimean War to happen. For Russia could be examined as the main aggressor, however had Austria come out openly about where it stood with Russia, at an earlier date, the Tsar would have realised to tread more warily.
France's capability lay in raising the issue of the holy places and the view that Napoleon III was only aiming to raise France's stature in Europe. With Britain, British public opinion seemed to work in pressurising the government to take a firm stance against Russia. Whilst lastly Turkey, the so-called victim of The Crimean War, where the Sultan can be argued to have sabotaged the best hope of a peaceful solution by rejecting the Vienna note, as taking vengeance on a country which has caused numerous problems for Turkey, was a better option.

The Reds have claimed infielder Robel García off waivers from the Cubs, according to Mark Sheldon of MLB.com. García had been designated for assignment by the Cubs on Thursday. He has been optioned and assigned to the Reds' alternate training site
The 27-year-old made a name for himself with his hot hitting in the upper levels of the Cubs' minor-league system. In 98 games between Double- and Triple-A last year, García hit .284/.369/.586 and slugged 27 home runs. He forced his way into the Cubs' Major League plans, appearing in 31 games and making 80 plate appearances.
His hitting slowed down some at the MLB level, and he struck out in a whopping 43.75% of plate appearances. Nonetheless, he managed a respectable .775 OPS, thanks to his 5 home runs and a passable 8.75% walk rate. Primarily a second baseman, García also played both corner outfield positions during his rookie season.
With an already crowded outfield mix in Cincinnati, he figures to see most of his playing time at second base, which is currently something of a toss-up with Mike Moustakas hitting the injured list; Josh VanMeter occupied that spot this afternoon. VanMeter, a left-handed hitter, could form a platoon with the switch-hitting García, though the latter fared considerably better as a lefty in his first taste of big-league action (to be fair, he got just 20 plate appearances against southpaws).

The Policy & Resources Committee faced questions about its plan to use the Castel Hospital site and surrounding fields for around 90 new private homes and how the plan was announced by Committee member Deputy David Mahoney.
The President of the Scrutiny Management Committee, Deputy Yvonne Burford, used a public hearing with the Policy & Resources Committee to ask why its plan came to light only when a single member of the Committee, Deputy Mahoney, who is its lead member for property, wrote a letter to a single media source.
Deputy Burford asked: "Is it a new policy of the Policy & Resources Committee to give exclusive announcements on major policy issues to just one arm of the media?"
Deputy Mahoney replied: "That was a letter from me...which was aimed to get information out into the public sphere. I then followed it up with other media interviews."
Pictured: Deputy Yvonne Burford led the Scrutiny Management Committee's public hearing with the Policy & Resources Committee, the senior committee of the States.
Deputy Heidi Soulsby, Vice-President of the Policy & Resources Committee, said that Deputy Mahoney's letter outlining the plan to develop the Castel Hospital site and surrounding fields should be read in the context of his role as property lead for the Committee.
Members of the Committee said they had seen Deputy Mahoney's letter before it was published, provided input and approved it.
Deputy Gavin St. Pier, who was sitting on the Scrutiny Panel for the hearing, asked for further clarity on whether the plan to develop the Castel Hospital site and surrounding fields was a personal initiative from Deputy Mahoney or a policy of the Policy & Resources Committee endorsed by its members.
Deputy Mahoney said: "It's clearly my position." But he added that the development plans he had published were broadly the position of the Policy & Resources Committee.
Pictured: Deputy David Mahoney, property lead for the Policy & Resources Committee, said earlier this week that the Castel Hospital site and surroudning fields should be developed to provide around 90 private homes with three, four or five bedrooms and "decent-sized gardens".
The Policy & Resources Committee's plan for the Castel Hospital site is dividing public and political opinion partly because of the prospect of developing housing on green fields, potentially including Agricultural Priority Areas, next to the Hospital itself.
At the Scrutiny public hearing, Deputy Mahoney said the loss of agricultural fields and associated biodiversity may be justified given the pressing need to build more houses.
"Biodiversity is great and everyone throws it around. But it's not much comfort - biodiversity - when you're sat in rented accommodation that's not good enough for you. I'd rather build the houses. That's a personal view," said Deputy Mahoney.
Deputy Burford asked whether developing on a series of smaller brownfield sites would not be a better way to increase the supply of housing. But Deputy Mahoney said many such sites were unsuitable, particularly given the number of additional homes now required.
"Green fields are around the massive site, the concrete site, that the Castel Hospital currently sits on. So that makes it a better site for a larger development," said Deputy Mahoney.
He added: "I don't want to concrete the island."

You emerged from them, sweaty, dishevelled and more than a little worse for wear - but you had a great night, right?
They were the dancefloors of our youth, the places everyone, literally everyone, piled into after the pub.
Some of us met our partners there, others would possibly prefer to forget what happened.
Driver flips car in desperate attempt to avoid Dartford Crossing queues
But mention their names, and you might find yourself going all misty eyed for such good times.
So, in tribute to those music meccas of the past, we've collated a list of some of the Ashford nightclubs where the discs stopped spinning, and added some of your memories of the places, too.
This isn't an exhaustive list, we're quite sure, so we'd like your help and your memories, so if we've missed out your favourite nightclub of the past then pop it in the comments box below.
Dusty's, Flatfoot Sam's, Cales and Liquid & Envy
The Flourmills were transformed into Ashford 's first discotheque – Dusty's – in the early eighties.
After that it became Flatfoot Sam's, Cales and Liquid & Envy, before the latter relocated to the former Hustle site under new name Cameo.
Sunday nights were always buy one get one free nights, closing time was 2am,10 minutes before the lights went up, the slow dancing came on and dance partners who hadn't already "coupled up" by then were referred to as the "ten to two'ers"
Most nights started with a pub crawl through town, beginning at The Wig and Gavel before heading to The Zodiac, The George and The County and eventually to The Star at the bottom of East Hill next to the club.
At the back of the club was a function room called The Ashford Suite – many of you will have been to many a wedding in there.
Sunday nights was always buy one get one free. Happy days – which incidentally was also on TV at the time.
Eventually it became Cales, which seemed to determined to rid itself of the early eighties disco image.
Cales brewed its own beer that you could see brewing, which became known as This, That and The Other.
Ashford's 'Premier' nightspot closed in 2014 when it became Cameo.
Locals will remember the dark days between September and December 2014 when Ashford had no nightclub... *sobs*
Corkers Wine Bar / Bar Three Zero / Midnight Club
Initially a hairdressers, Corkers inhabited 30 Bank Street from around 1986.
The legendary bar was run by Sarah and Roger Spencer until it was closed and eventually re branded as Bar Three Zero in 2007.
The Midnight Club attempted to rekindle Bank Street in the noughties, inhabiting the coveted 30 Bank Street building.
Sadly though, the spot closed in 2014.
M20 / Strawberry Moons / Rain
Walking into this massive venue was enough to excite the youngest of party-goers.
Tall ceilings, huge dance floors, countless bars and that giant queue that sprawled past Cineworld are just some of the common memories.
The building has had an array of different uses since M20 vacated in 2005.
It was replaced with premier club brand Strawberry Moons in 2008 and extensive work was done to give the interior a facelift.
But less than six months after a grand opening, it shut and reopened as Rain nightclub.
Now, there is no sign of a nightclub ever existing, with Bannatyne's Health Club and Chiquito restaurant occupying that end corner of Eureka Park.

So with the series already down in the books as a loss, it would be nice to avoid getting swept. Luckily, the Sox have Jon Lester on the mound today, so there's an excellent chance of little run action on the part of the Milwaukee Brewers. We now just need to hope that the Sox bats can put something together.
Unfortunately, it's another day, another not-exactly-optimal Sox lineup, as Will Middlebrooks is once again unavailable, and Grady Sizemore has a scheduled day off with a day game directly after a night game:
- Daniel Nava, RF
- Dustin Pedroia, 2B
- David Ortiz, DH
- Mike Napoli, 1B
- Xander Bogaerts, SS
- Jonny Gomes, LF
- Jonathan Herrera, 3B
- Jackie Bradley, Jr., CF
- David Ross, C
plus the aforementioned Lester on the mound. However, there's no Placeholder sighting, so it's not nearly as suboptimal as it could have been.
Doing battle for the Milwaukee Brewers today:
- Carlos Gomez, CF
- Rickie Weeks, 2B
- Ryan Braun, RF
- Aramis Ramirez, DH
- Jonathan Lucroy, C
- Khris Davis, LF
- Mark Reynolds, 3B
- Lyle Overbay, 1B
- Jeff Bianchi, SS
with Yovani Gallardo lining up against Lester.
So, just as a reminder, there is to be no sweeping during this game. OK, Red Sox? Good? Then:

Guwahati, February 27, 2018 (PPI-OT): Congress leader and former puppet Chief Minister of occupied Kashmir, Ghulam Nabi Azad, has said that the Indian Army should remain apolitical and should not look into the growth of any political party in India.
The statement of Azad, who is also the Leader of Opposition in the Indian Rajya Sabha, came in response of the recent comments of Indian Army chief, Gen Bipin Rawat, who during a recent seminar in Delhi had linked the cross border influx from Bangladesh to Assam with the growth of All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) in the state. "The Army Chief's duty is to protect the territory and every inch of the land of the country," he told media persons at a press conference in Guwahati, the largest city of Assam and Northeastern India.

6 Bizarre Thanksgiving Turkey Dinners
What comes to mind when you think of Thanksgiving? Maybe it's a cornucopia centerpiece and colorful pumpkins and gourds adorning your home; heaping plates of mouth-watering turkey, mashed potatoes with gravy, and stuffing for dinner; or getting together with family and friends, watching football, and playing games together.
Thanksgiving can mean many things, but it's mostly about giving thanks (after all, it is called Thanks-giving). However, the bizarre turkey dinners below may make you think, "No, thanks!"
These turkey dinners may be a bit bizarre, but your car insurance doesn't have to be. Call 1-877-GO-DIRECT (1-877-463-4732), click, or come in to let us work with you to help determine the best policy for your needs, find ALL the discounts you're entitled to, and provide the great service you deserve.
1. Chip Flavor Blasted Turkey
If you're a fan of hot puffed cheese sticks, like Flamin' Hot Cheetos, ranch-flavored corn chips, like Doritos, or crunchy onion rings (and who isn't?), then Reynolds Kitchens' recipes for "Flavor Blasted Turkeys" may be the perfect weird Thanksgiving dinner for you! Coat the turkey with the crushed chips and roast in the oven for a new way to enjoy your favorite snack.
2. Roasted Alien Facehugger Chicken
The movie "Alien" debuted in 1979, introducing viewers to the facehugger, a science-fiction creature that attaches itself to a host's face in an attempt to implant them with an alien parasite (yeah, creepy). Today, food blogger Hellen Die, who has 15 years in Hollywood's horror film biz, has her own version of the facehugger — in the form of this sci-fi roasted chicken! OK, so it's not technically a turkey, but this one could easily win an Academy Award for the most bizarre of all poultry dinners.
3. Turkey Cake
Do you like savory pies like shepherd's pie and chicken pot pie? Well, what about a turkey cake? This turkey meatloaf-style cake recipe from Chowhound is made with layers of turkey, sweet potatoes, marshmallows, cranberry sauce, and a heaping spoon of bizarre.
4. Turkey Sushi Roll
We love a good turkey leftover recipe (see: Thanksgiving Turkey Leftover Recipes You'll Love to Gobble Up [INFOGRAPHIC]), but a turkey sushi roll? Bonsai Bistro's Thanksgiving leftover-inspired maki roll is filled with smoked turkey breast, stuffing, dried cranberries, green beans, and cream cheese. It is tempura battered and fried, and served with cranberry wasabi and a red wine soy demi-glace. OK, this one actually sounds pretty tasty. What do you think?
5. Jell-O Mold Turkey
These bizarre turkey dinners aren't made with actual birds, but rather Jell-O molds! A turkey burger turkey, matzoh ball soup turkey, and a Hostess cupcake turkey are just a few of the inspired takes made for this turkey-shaped Jell-O mold competition. Some of these entries may be a little too realistic (and bizarre!) looking for most people's tastes. Your dinner guests might prefer a bowl of cranberry gelatin salad instead.
6. Turducken
For the uninitiated: a turducken is a deboned chicken stuffed in a deboned duck stuffed in a deboned turkey, with dressing (or stuffing, depending on where you're from) separating each layer. The turducken was created in 1984 at Hebert's Specialty Meats in Maurice, Louisiana. A customer with a turkey, duck, and chicken asked if the butcher shop could debone and combine the birds. It seemed a little out there at the time, but 30+ years later, Hebert's sells as many as 3,500 turduckens during the holiday season! Cajun Grocer has a great turducken recipe you can recreate at home.
