Chicken soup for a complex problem, homelessness - (USA)
Chicken soup for a complex problem, homelessness Maybe you're like I was at a time in my life when I thought the homeless people received enough help so they didn't need me. I was actually afraid of them when I was walking around. My excuse, well I was just a teenager at the time. When I grew up, my attitude did too. I started to see them as people that once had families and friends, jobs, places to live and bank accounts. After all, my father did. He was a Korean War veteran and 100% disab

.Beirut, the Provincetown of the Middle EastBy PATRICK HEALY (New York Times, 2/8/2009)THE pre-party began at 9 p.m. in Bertho Makso’s room at the Bella Riva Suite Hotel, and by 9:05 p.m. the air was awash in cologne, hair spray, cigarette smoke and gossip about the night ahead. Would a certain 20-something from West Beirut be at the beach party? Had the two men from Cairo arrived yet? Was the cute D.J. from Bardo, a gay bar here, going to be spinning? And did anyone need condoms?The last questi

Make Me Smile - (USA)
I've been thinking a lot lately about life, death, and all things meta-physical. Without being too preachy or too deep (after all, it is Friday and the beginning of the weekend), I would like to pose the question of what makes us happy? What really makes us smile from ear to ear? Did you ever stop to think, when was the last time you were truly, truly just happy to be alive? I don't have time to answer this in one blog post and I'm not sure I could write a book to answer this but, I do know o

Roasted Capresse Salad So, while the rest of you were brining your turkeys and candying your yams, I was shopping & cleaning. I've mentioned before that we don't really 'do' Thanksgiving. Matt doesn't really care for turkey. Neither Alex nor I eat it, obviously. When I met him, Matt had already created something he called the Two Days After Thanksgiving Dinner; a feast for friends taking place, as the name suggests, the Saturday after. Deviled Eggs These dinners were perfect; those who

A house is not a home, especially if you speak French - (USA)
Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration. ~Charles Dickens So you know languages develop words for things they value or need and leave out the ones they have no need or use for. Eskimos have dozens of names for snow , and Hawaiians didn't have a word for snow until Captain James Cook dropped over after his long boat ride and said, "I could really go for a snow cone." The Hawaiians didn't know

NBC's Vaccine Propaganda Piece - (USA)
Measles, at least when I went through it, was like mumps, a rite of passage in childhood. Everybody got it, it was considered routine, you stayed home for a couple of days in bed while your parents tended to you. That was it. No big whoop. Staying in bed watching cartoons was preferable to going to school for most kids, in any case.

Tales from the Cop side. - (USA)
Upon occasion during my tenure as a police officer I have been dispatched to calls that have left me wondering (at times aloud), what am I doing here? Below are a few of the more interesting forays into the strange and unusual I felt compelled to share. Some are from calls I have been on and others relayed by fellow officers but all have one thing in common; they illustrate that truth is stranger than fiction. “Hey, don’t put that there”: One of my favorites was relayed by a fellow offic

Cut Costs on Your Garage Plan - (USA)

How Does Corporate Housing Work? - (USA)
How Does Corporate Housing Work? by Amy NuttThere is simply nothing more important than the home, remember, it’s where the heart is. What people consider a home is something a lot more than just where they live and how it looks, it’s a certain state of mind that brings a person peace of mind. Whether it’s a trailer or a mansion, there is always that feel that brings a person inner solace in the fact that they are where they belong, even in the case of corporate housing, where it may be

Three Huge Boxes...the Story Continues - (USA)
Hi, everybody - I wrote a few days ago about packing three huges boxes for a wholesale lot sale. And how they sat, prominently featured, in my front hall, until we had to move them into the living room/Ebay store because we hosted Thanksgiving. (We had a blast--I hadn't hosted for at least fifteen years!) In a bit we are meeting with a friend who is also a professional organizer, and he suggested redoing the layout of the apartment in such a way so that all of the bookshelves would be in the l
