I cannot imagine the dedication of the makers. I make quilts, all improv, because the mere thought of following a pattern sends me into a tizzy. So much admiration for the designers and fabricators.

Totally agree. Websites are a must. But websites are not everything. Everything would include updating the website with hours, menus, etc. And since way too many businesses in my part of the world (rural Virginia, though not sure that matte

This story and many of the comments illustrate the need for and value of human connection. The Yakult Lady is akin to Men's Sheds and long table events (The Longest Table, Longer Tables). Also on the continuum of connection building is

I've not looked at the research associated with the Friendship Bench [1] or UK Men's Sheds [2] -- evaluations or data associated with the model's development -- but I would be surprised if either relied only on individual act

Sorry to say that my first reaction was that this is heresy. . . all this talk of science is a hoax. But then the music calmed me right down and I wended my way through, not understanding 99% of what I saw but in awe of nature and Neal&#x

Perhaps if non-poor people start speaking out on a regular basis to elected and appointed officials, the media, and policy wonks, we might make some progress getting a better healthcare system. I've spent 30 years as a policy and budge

I wish I could have taken something as a kid. I knew when I was 5 that something was wrong. I felt different from other kids (as least as they said they felt) and that continued through my late 20s when I started taking SSRIs. It was the be

Not sure how it is in places other than Virginia, but added to the confusion created by the orders (yay, judges for ordering use of the designated funds!) is a question about when the state will decide to implement a temporary food program

Well done :-) An offer and suggestion. The offer: I'm happy to blog and otherwise share your site with folks in my little part of the world (Northern Neck of Virginia). Suggestion: Consider a redesign where the text is not white on a d

No answer to the question, but you raise a good point: Americans consider homes an investment. Years ago when I was doing public policy analysis and advocacy full time, I spent some time thinking about home ownership, being financially and

Chalkboards all day, every day. Especially since at least once a week my Greek and Roman history teacher in prep school would throw a chalk nub at me and mis-pronounce my name. Chalk, funny. A marker not so much.
