How Do You Know When You Are Doing Too Much? by Jacci Gruninger
My telltale sign that I am doing too much is that I can’t keep things organized and I forget things. Sometimes I just feel overwhelmed by it all. I appreciate that I have a built in slowing down practice of yoga, breathing and meditation. However, it does happen.
Staying Healthy in Challenging Times by Richard Skolnik
We have asked Richard Skolnik, a White Rock resident, to provide information for our newsletter from time to time about how we might “stay healthy”. Richard is the former Director for Health, Nutrition and Population for the South Asia Region at the World Bank. He also managed an AIDS treatment program for three countries in Africa for Harvard and taught global health at the George Washington University and Yale, at which he still holds an appointment.

The How & Why I Give - Don Dudziak
I have been asked to write the first of a series of articles on why and how I give to charities. The first part - why - is easy. Most non-profit organizations always have a need for funds to continue, and often to expand, the good they do for the community. I have decided to focus on just a few local ones where I can see the benefits of contributions, and verify that only a small portion of the donation goes to administration or fundraising expenses.
