Human trafficking expected during solar eclipse; ‘Freedom Stickers’ with hotline info are available for public restrooms

Gambar
Advocates for victims of human trafficking are urging Central Oregon businesses to post information about how to escape in their bathroom stalls before the total solar eclipse later this month. The eclipse, which is expected to bring hundreds of thousands of people to Central Oregon , could result in more cases of people being bought or sold for sex, said Nita Belles, executive director of the anti- trafficking organization In Our Backyard. “We know with the increase in population and the party atmosphere surrounding the eclipse, there will be an increase in human trafficking,” Belles said. Her organization produces “ Freedom Stickers ,” which contain instructions for how to contact the National Human Trafficking Hotline and say, in both English and Spanish, “People are not property. There is freedom from those who are hurting you.” More than 60,000 of these stickers can be found in public bathrooms throughout the country. Belles took the idea for the stickers from “shoe card

Forecast: Showers, storms and high humidity return

SYRACUSE, NY (WSYR-TV) - - Mostly dry through sunset. - Rain arrives first to the Finger Lakes, then Syracuse tonight . - Warm, unsettled and muggy on Friday. - Weekend still looks pretty good right now. Rain returns tonight : High pressure that brought us dry weather Wednesday and Thursday has moved east. An area of low pressure and its fronts will swing in from the south and west tonight. This will bring some showers and a few storms by 9 p.m. for the Finger Lakes and at or shortly before midnight for Syracuse. Showers and storms continue into Friday morning before a warm front moves east and we dry out temporarily. Scattered showers and storms will likely develop Friday afternoon as well given the fact that it will be very humid plus a cold front will be approaching us from western NY. Some of these storms could be strong to severe late Friday afternoon , especially the more sunshine we see during the day. It does look like the shower and thunderstorm threat will be diminishing

Prescription for fighting aging: A daily dose of optimism, good humor and prayer

This article won’t win me any brownie points from some readers, but for all of you “over-the-hill” gang, let’s face it: We are going to get older and with that comes the possibility of losing our independence. We all probably have that magic age in our minds we hope to reach. I, myself, am shooting for 100. Why? No particular reason. It just sounds like a nice round number , so, why not? I shared this bit of information with a relative a little older than me, and she agreed that it would be nice but only if it could be a healthy 100. We see friends and relatives already in a position where they’re unable to care for themselves and have to rely on their children and others or eventually require the services of a nursing facility. We don’t want to be anyone else’s responsibility. An 80 year old friend recently had this realization hit home when she — always an active person, even after knee replacements and shoulder surgeries — had another debilitating illness that put her on her backs

How to use Floral Foam

Gambar
One of a florist's secrets is floral foam. It is super easy to get flowers to stay EXACTLY where you want them and it is really easy to use. I have been wanting to make a "window box" arrangement for awhile now with these flowers from Flora and Field,  so I took a little video of how simple it is to do with wet floral foam . [embedded content] Here are a few tips: 1- You can get wet foam at any craft store or at Walmart 2- I soak mine in warm water until it sinks...that way you know it is full of water.  3- For this particular arrangement, I put foil in the bottom of the container so that it wouldn't leak (they make green floral foil , but I don't have any on hand and you usually have to get it at a wholesaler).  4- You can cover foam a number of ways - with greenery or, in this case, I covered with moss.  5- Then you just add your flowers! They stick in the foam with no problem and you can easily move them to get the perfect look. I would love to see what

Bathroom safety for the elderly, Singapore News & Top Stories

Taking a tumble is no laughing matter for elderly folk. They can suffer head injuries or fractures that may confine them to a wheelchair. Falls in the bathroom are quite common, said Ms Shirleen Sim , an occupational therapist at Tan Tock Seng Hospital . While there are no official figures, she estimates that at least a third of elderly rehabilitation patients in the hospital have fallen in the bathroom. She points out the hot spots, and what can be done to guard against falls. SLIPPERY SURFACES The floor can get slippery from soapy water, so if an elderly person does not feel steady on his feet, he should sit on a chair while showering. Try not to let him sit on the covered lid of the toilet seat as the smooth surface can easily get slippery and cause him to slide off. Installing a vertical grab bar in the shower cubicle may be helpful, allowing him to hold on to it when he stands up to wash. One can also place non-slip mats in the wet areas of the bathroom. But lay them out proper

Here’s To My Fellow Bridesmaids At My Best Friend’s Wedding

Twenty20 / laurfant24 When one of your best friends get engaged, it’s just the best. The most exciting. And when she lists off the names of “her people”, the girls she couldn’t imagine not having standing by her side on her special day, you notice a few names that you don’t know. Or don’t know well, at least. You show up to the engagement party or the first few showers and there they are, the 6-10 other girls who are equally as excited to watch their friend live out her dream of marrying her prince charming. And for one weekend, you spent an absurd amount of time bustling dresses and sipping on mimosas until you’ve convinced yourself that your shoes don’t hurt, and the only thing you’re left with is following each other on social media and hearing little bits and pieces about each other’s lives from our mutual friend. And you know, that’s just not enough. We went through a weekend-long affair together and it doesn’t feel right that it just ends with a hug after a sparkler brigade as

Pregnant Audrey Roloff Shamed for Posting This Baby Bump Pic

Gambar
Little People, Big World star Audrey Roloff has been documenting her growing bump on social media since announcing her pregnancy exclusively to Us Weekly in February. But a Facebook photo posted August 21 sparked backlash with some of the 25-year-old’s more conservative fans. In the “offensive” picture, the barre instructor, who is married to Jeremy Roloff , stands in front of a bathroom mirror in a sports bra and sweatpants with her belly on full display. “Does it get any lower?!?” Roloff wrote .”#almost39weeks.” Audrey’s disapproving followers sounded off in the comments section. “I love this family but I think it’s a disgrace to show your body to all the viewers. My opinion. It should be for your husband’s eyes only,” sniffed one person. Added another: “Why do young mothers-to-be want to show their naked bellies?” The criticism didn’t end there. Other comments included “I am so sick of you showing your belly,” and “Audrey you are not the first person to have a baby!!!” These Cel

Hill Country Haven

Deerbrook Farm is a love story, straight out of the True Romance series . It’s about a young girl named Betsy Skillin , born in New York City and raised in Europe, who met Tom O’Connell, an American soldier, on a train traveling from Frankfurt to Paris. She was 14, and he was 20. Their chance meeting led to several years of friendly correspondence. Somewhere along the way, Tom met another woman and married. Betsy married Nolan Welmaker . Tom developed a successful career in advertising sales, and Betsy became known in San Antonio as a successful mother, community volunteer and entrepreneur, opening Violet Talk Gifts in Alamo Heights. I ran into Tom at a business function after he was married and had a daughter,” Betsy says. “I wrote my phone number on the back of his business card and gave it to him.” She invited him to visit San Antonio and then went on with her life. “In 1980, my phone rang,” Betsy continues. “A deep voice said, ‘This is a voice from your past,’ and it turned out

A father’s scars: For Va.’s Creigh Deeds, tragedy brings unending questions

Creigh Deeds, Virginia state senator . (Matt McClain/The Washington Post) He wakes up, and even before he opens his eyes, he can see his beautiful, delusional son . Gus , Creigh Deeds thinks . He lies in bed a few minutes more, trying to conjure specific images. Gus dancing. Gus playing the banjo. Gus with the puppies. Any images of Gus other than the final ones he has of his 24-year-old, mentally ill son attacking him and then walking away to kill himself, images that intrude on his days and nights along with the questions that he will begin asking himself soon, but not yet. A few minutes more. Gus fishing. Gus looking at him. Gus smiling at him. Time to start the day. He gets out of bed, where a piece of the shotgun he had taken apart in those last days of his son’s life is still hidden under the mattress. He goes outside to feed the animals, first the chickens in the yard and then the horses in the red-sided barn. He leads the blind thoroughbred outside with a bucket of feed, t
