Homeless Holiday Hype New York Post December 7, 2002 By Heather Mac Donald It's the holiday season--the time when New York's press likes to scarf up the homelessness industry's lies even more eagerly than usual. Thanksgiving week saw a cornucopia of made-for-the-media whoppers.

I do sometimes believe they have made ‘bad’ choices, but unless they’ve had guidance in their earlier lives, they may not know what is a good choice or an appropriate choice. But who am I to make that judgment?” Harris asked.

ALL Displaced Americans are casualties of the warfare which America's Satanic WASP's and Jews have been waging against all other Americans. Being Displaced as a result of the warfare which America's Satanic WASP's and Jews are waging against all other Americans is the ONLY cause of Homelessness. On America's Satanic WASP's and Jews Outrageous War Economy http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/54250 Twitty Its just about time for the republican Mafia to blame other groups of people what Bush and Chaney have done to the USA economy system. Jews have always been the best group to blame as history has shown. Hispanic blamed for taking the low end jobs. and blacks blamed for being to lazy to work,and only interested in being on welfare Its so very sad,but so very true. It is a big part of humankind history. TreBert Ps This begs the question will we Americans put the blame on those that should in reality take the blame? Or has the stone walling and cover up now in place to much to show the truth??? ALBANY, N.Y. -- November is Homeless Awareness Month ... Capital 9 News ... and in an effort to help those who are less fortunate this holiday season Albany County DA David Soares and Albany County Executive Michael Breslin are putting on their dancing shoes. They're teaming up with the Interfaith Partnership for the Homeless to perform the Cha- Cha Slide to help "Stomp Out Homelessness". Paper product donations will be accepted at noon today at West Capital Park. The Interfaith Partnership has provided shelter, clothes as well as breakfast programs to the needy for about 25 years. http://capitalnews9.com/content/headlines/127980/breslin--soares-team-up-for-the -homeless/Default.aspx ~ * ~ More Holiday Homelesss Hype ... http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&tab=gn&ned=us&nolr=1&q=homeless&btnG=Search ~ * ~ Only in America do the "homeless" have computers and Web access, but somehow cannot be motivated to find a job and spend all day on-line bitching about how bad off they are. > Homeless Holiday Hype > New York Post [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > ~ * ~ > Only in America do the "homeless" have computers and Web access, but somehow > cannot be motivated to find a job and spend all day on-line bitching about > how bad off they are. U.S. Aluminum Can Recycling Steady in 2006 The Aluminum Association, Can Manufacturers Institute (CMI), and Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) today announced statistics indicating that Americans and the aluminum industry recycled 51.9 billion aluminum cans in 2006, half a billion more than in 2005. It has the highest recycling rate of any beverage container at 51.6 percent. The aluminum beverage can is the most recycled consumer beverage product in the United States and has been for more than 20 years. In the U.S., 100.6 billion cans were produced in 2006 and the cans recycled equaled approximately 1.52 billion pounds. "The aluminum can is the most valuable packaging material to recycle," said Patrick M. Franc, chairman of The Aluminum Association and president of ARCO Aluminum, Inc. "The practice of recycling aluminum cans provides environmental, economic, and social benefits to communities and organizations across the country." "Aluminum cans continue to provide our customers and consumers with an exceptional environmental package of choice," said Robert Budway, president of the Can Manufacturers Institute. "When you recycle it gets better and better compounding the benefits." Recycling conserves energy, saves precious resources and minimizes consumer and production waste. A can that is recycled can be back on the store shelf in just 60 days. And it requires 95 percent less energy and generates 95 percent less emissions. The aluminum can industry continues to actively promote recycling through the Curbside Value Partnership (CVP). CVP is a national recycling program that helps communities grow participation in residential curbside recycling programs and measures their effectiveness. Recycling reduces carbon emissions and helps combat climate change; so it is more important than ever to help re-energize community recycling. Funded by the Aluminum Association and the Can Manufacturers Institute and their members - Alcoa, Anheuser-Busch Recycling, ARCO, Ball Corporation, Novelis and REXAM, CVP is engaged with more than 40 communities. Partner communities have seen an average increase of 22 percent in recycling volume and 20 percent in participation. Additionally, hundreds of other communities have benefited from the best practices and resources shared on-line at www.recyclecurbside.org and in print in the quarterly newsletter Bin Buzz. The aluminum can industry supports the domestic market for aluminum cans through marketing, research and recycling initiatives. Other programs include the Cans for Habitat for Humanity recycling partnership, the Recycle Challenge school drop-off program, can advertising promotions, recycling promotion, student environmental education programs, school and civic organization collection programs, and other projects. The aluminum can industry recognizes and promotes the value and importance of recycling. The aluminum beverage can is 100 percent recyclable into new beverage cans indefinitely - a demonstration of recycling at its finest. Today's beverage can is lighter than ever with 34.21 cans per pound of aluminum, almost 10 percent lighter than in 2004. The aluminum can is the only packaging material that more than covers the cost of collection and re-processing for itself. It also helps subsidize the collection of other recyclable materials. "The scrap recycling industry is encouraged that despite the modest year-over-year growth, the report shows an increase in the volume of recycled cans," said Robin Wiener, president of the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries. "This demonstrates that the all-aluminum can continues to be recognized as a valuable recyclable commodity." Recycling saves energy. Recycling 40 aluminum beverage cans has the energy-saving equivalent of one gallon of gasoline. During 2006, Americans recycled enough aluminum cans to conserve the energy equivalent of over 15 million barrels of oil. http://resources.alibaba.com/topic/163759/U_S_Aluminum_Can_Recycling_Steady_in_2 006_.htm On , , Fri, 14 Nov 2008 08:44:32 -0800 (PST), Re: ~ * Heather on Homeless Holiday Hype * ~, Linda <Indomitable2@netzero.com> wrote: >Recycling saves energy.

Reuse, recycling, and waste reduction offer direct development opportunities for communities. When collected with skill and care, and upgraded with quality in mind, discarded materials are a local resource that can contribute to local revenue, job creation, business expansion, and the local economic base. Recycling-based economic development has been a 30-year focus of ILSR's work. It is the heart of our Waste to Wealth program. For three decades, we have provided technical assistance linking reuse and recycling with community development and have documented the job creation and value added benefits of reuse and recycling. On a per-ton basis, sorting and processing recyclables alone sustain 10 times more jobs than landfilling or incineration. However, making new products from the old offers the largest economic pay-off in the recycling loop. New recycling-based manufacturers employ even more people and at higher wages than does sorting recyclables. Some recycling-based paper mills and plastic product manufacturers, for instance, employ on a per-ton basis 60 times more workers than do landfills. Product reuse is even more job-intensive than recycling. It is a knowledge-based industry, with a premium placed on accurate sorting and pricing, and good inventory management.

Source: Institute for Local Self-Reliance, Washington, DC, 1997. Value is added to discarded materials as a result of cleaning, sorting, and baling. Manufacturing with locally collected discards adds even more value by producing finished goods. For example, old newspapers may sell for $30 per ton, but new newsprint sells for $600 per ton. Each recycling step a community takes locally means more jobs, more business expenditures on supplies and services, and more money circulating in the local economy through spending and tax payments.1 Recycling has had a major impact on job creation in local and state economies: In North Carolina, recycling industries employ over 8,700 people. The job gains in recycling in this state far outnumber the jobs lost in other industries. For every 100 recycling jobs created, just 10 jobs were lost in the waste hauling and disposal industry, and 3 jobs were lost in the timber harvesting industry. A survey of ten northeastern states found that they employ 103,413 people in recycling.2 A 1992 survey in Washington found that this state had created 2,050 recycling-based jobs since 1989. 3 Massachusetts employs more than 9,000 people in more than 200 recycling enterprises. About half of these jobs are in the recycling- based manufacturing sector. These businesses represent more than half a billion dollars in value added to the state's economy.4 In California, meeting the state's 50% recycling goal is expected to create about 45,000 recycling jobs, over 20,000 of which are slated to be in the manufacturing sector.5 In Iowa, a 2001 study found that recycling-related end-use manufacturing operations sustain over 23,000 jobs and generate nearly $3.33 billion in total industrial output. The direct manufacturing jobs in Iowa's recycling industry typically support high wages, on average $47,700 per job.6 Click here for more information. Regional studies of employment and the remanufacturing industry indicate that recycling activities employ more than 2.5% of manufacturing workers. Extrapolating these findings to the entire nation, recycling and remanufacturing activities could account for approximately 1 million manufacturing jobs and more than $100 billion in revenue.7 Indeed, according to a recent study of recycling's national economic impact, the U.S. Recycling Economic Information Study, in the year 2000, the recycling and reuse industry sustained approximately 56,000 operations that employed over 1.1 million people, generated an annual payroll of nearly $37 billion, and grossed over $236 billion in annual revenues. The study also documented the "indirect" impact of recycling on support industries, such as accounting firms and office supply companies. It found that the reuse and recycling industry indirectly supports 1.4 million jobs that have a payroll of $52 billion and produce $173 billion in receipts. 8 While employment in the U.S. grew only 2.1% annually between 1967 and 2000, the recycling industry saw 8.3% increase in employment, and 12.7% growth in annual sales. In 1967, the recycling industry consisted of approximately 8,000 companies, employing 79,000 people, with $4.6 billion in sales.

Ahem! America was only a mecca for gangsters with duh-grees so long as America insanely turned a blind eye to the gangsters with duh-grees defrauding America of $1.2 trillion dollars annually or 10% of it's GDP for health services that do not improve health. Americans can no longer afford to turn a blind eye to Americans being defrauded of $1.2 trillion dollars annually or 10% of it's GDP for health services that do not improve health. Hence, the party is over for all the gangsters with duh-grees who emigrated to America to join all the other gangsters with duh-grees defrauding America of $1.2 trillion dollars a year or 10% of America's GDP for health services which don't improve health. It goes without saying, that the party being over will occaision a mass exodus of gangsters with duh-grees. (medical tourism is all the rage; therefore, the gangsters with duh- grees can always set up shop in developing countries) In any event, kicking America's gangsters with duh-grees to the curb will free up the loot which America requires to rebuild and maintain it's infrastructure, which, in turn, will stem the flow of waste from America to the developing countries which have been utilizing America's waste, toxic or otherwise, to build infrastructures which America's current infrastructure pales in comparison to. > > > > Only in America do the "homeless" have computers and Web access, but somehow > > > > cannot be motivated to find a job and spend all day on-line bitching about [quoted text clipped - 66 lines] > America's waste, toxic or otherwise, to build infrastructures which > America's current infrastructure pales in comparison to.

Thousands to Sleep Under the Stars to Help Homeless By Kirstin Mcguire Miami Herald November 14, 2008 Thousands of people will participate in a sleep-a-thon at Markham Park Friday night to bring attention to homelessness. Fifteen years later, his risky lifestyle led to a drunk driving arrest, and his mother kicked him out of the house. Feeling hopeless, Rivera, 29, turned to the Miami Rescue Mission. Now sober for 32 months and counting, Rivera has graduated from the program and volunteers regularly at the mission. ''I thought I was living before, but I wasn't,'' Rivera said. ``I wasn't living until I came here.'' Friday night, Rivera and thousands of community members will participate in an outdoor sleep-a-thon to bring awareness to homelessness. Like those living on the streets, participants will sleep in cardboard boxes and sleeping bags in Sunrise's Markham Park, 16001 W. State Road 84.

Scam! The displaced americans I'm acquainted with sleep under bridges, or, sleep in tunnels, or, sleep in abandoned buildings, or, sleep in abandoned motor homes, or, sleep in abandoned buses, or, sleep in abandoned shipping containers, or, sleep in "hooches" they build out of pallets and plywood, etc. The only displaced americans I've ever encountered sleeping in cardboard boxes are the displaced americans who let themselves be exploited by the predators making a mint running shelters, who endeavor to maximize the contributions they receive by virtue of their having the displaced americans they exploit camp outside their shelters in cardboard boxes to ensure maximum visibility. Furthermore, the war / economy coming to a complete standstill must have created a humongous surplus of tents, as the cardboard boxes of the displaced americans camped outside shelters preying on them have recently been replaced by brand new tents---so they aren't even sleeping in cardboard boxes anymore. > > Thousands to Sleep Under the Stars to Help Homeless > > By Kirstin Mcguire [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > abandoned shipping containers, or, sleep in "hooches" they build out > of pallets and plywood, etc. That's no scam.

That's no scam. Nevada being the last to boom, makes Nevada first in line to go bust. As a matter of fact, I ran across a space at our local swap meet which was advertizing a slew of homes being auctioned off a week or two BEFORE the sub-prime lending crisis made the rest of America aware of how dire things are. Needless to say, residents of Nevada are not holding vigils to raise public awareness of the hardships endured by the displaced americans living off the land. Au contraire Residents of Nevada seem quite eager to learn how the undomiciled manage to survive. Why don't you post this on INSANITY ANONYMOUS instead of here?

Thanksgiving Meals to Be a little Thin for Homeless By JULIET FLETCHER November 15, 2008 VINELAND - As donations to food banks have dwindled, one local soup kitchen faced a difficult time this week finding turkeys for its Thanksgiving dinner. Around lunchtime today, about 150 homeless and hungry adults and children are expected to arrive at the sit-down event, held inside First Presbyterian Church at Eighth Street and Landis Avenue, for a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. But members of the organizing group, Spirit and Truth Ministries, said Friday that birds for this year's feast were hard to find, a sign that the numerous organizations that supply such outreach have also been feeling the economic pinch. "We did have a problem with getting our turkeys," said kitchen head Pam Carman, who has spent the past few weeks planning everything from the menu - including stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes and green beans - down to handmade placemats designed by local Girl Scouts.

Both my father and my wife reeived blood tranfusions while in the hospital that they couldn't understand why they needed. Concerns of getting aids from blood made them uneasy about it. The doctors make money off it too. The plasma centers seem to think on the other hand that draining pints of blood from you frequently wouldn't negatively affect your health. Doctors used to think blood letting was beneficial. I think it might help with high blood pressure. > After giving > blood eat MSP and wash it down with 16oz of cranberry juice.

Every year the city near where I live has a community Christmas Dinner. It is for people who have no prospect of anything special for Christmas and also for people who are alone or have no relatives or friends to spend the day with. It is done by volunteers and also by donations of cash and things like sacks of potatos etc. They always put on a good spread and have a good time. They have to limit the volunteers as one year there was almost as many volunteers as diners. I suspect a lot of the volunteers were also alone and wanted to do something rather than sit at home by themselves.

Homeless Won't Leave Pets to Get off Streets By Jennifer Brooks THE TENNESSEAN November 17, 2008 The leaves are falling, the nights are cold and Carolyn Garton would like nothing better than to move out of her makeshift shelter in Tent City and into a nice, warm house. But not without her Sunshine. "She's my baby. God brought her to me," said Garton, pulling Sunshine into a hug. The black and tan shepherd mix thumped her tail and wriggled closer to lick her owner's chin. Garton, who's known around Tent City as Mama Bear, has been homeless for two years. Sunshine's been by her side for most of it.

Double-A "I Am One of the Homeless" Faith communinity looks to take over men's shelter Shelby Star Monday, Nov 17 2008, 6:43 pm Cassie Tarpley SHELBY - If you were homeless and living in the woods, you'd probably want something to help you done quickly. Charles Moore does. He's set up a tent in a thicket near a railroad track in Shelby. He shares it with a few other men. He'd like some blankets and a non- electric heater. Or a change in policy at The Beacon, the men's homeless shelter. A faith-based group talking about a new non-profit organization to take over the shelter's operation and address related issues are thinking much longer term. It's been almost a year since the Mayor's Task Force on Homelessness asked churches to step up and look at what they might do together to help. "I am one of the homeless," Moore said from the back row of the packed Shelby City Council Chamber. "We have guys in the wood right now - one with pneumonia - at camp sites with no blankets." http://www.shelbystar.com/news/shelter_35072___article.html/homeless_shelby.html ~ * ~ More Holiday Homelesss Hype ... http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&tab=gn&ned=us&nolr=1&q=homeless&btnG=Search ~ * ~ Sure, you can cut-and-paste, but can you write ?

But who will fund it? Not local government. Just readin in today's paper how Oregon government is having to cut almost a billion buicks from its budget, mostly because the income taxes are not coming in aanymore, as so many have joined the unemployment lines and businesses have gone belly up. If Pres. Obama decides to bailout the poor (along with the fat cats), then such ideas as yours will be needed. Double-A Look how it's going.

My brain is geared for hypothetical thinking. I think that is why most like my posts??? (find them some what interesting) I hope TreBert Few ( very few ) read my posts, even fewer ( if any ) enjoy them. For most of us, that's the way it is here on Usenet. Typically, free advice is worth Less than what you paid for it. We enjoy your posts because you speak from the heart. Unlike you, Twittering One ( and Sam Wormley ) mostly quote stuff, Who needs that ? I don't. How do Wormley or Twitty Really feel ? we'll never know. Saul Levy probably likes himself less than he likes you, so don't feel bad. BradGuth bores me, he's too spacy, flighty, ungrounded. Painius confuses me a lot, and he quotes too much. When it comes to entropy, OldCoot is either ignorant or in denial. Hagar is so rude it's just funny. I enjoy Double-A's comments, but what is he hiding ? What's his real name ? Why doesn't he apply for low-income housing ? T.J. Frazir ( in Sci.Physics ) is ultra interesting ( at times ), but he doesn't come around much anymore. Sci.Physics' Michael Moroney is good ( usually ), but he too isn't around much, and he hates my comments ( I'm plonked ). Jeff TJ (wild coyote) is like an alien. Hard to figure out over 10 years where his posts are going. He use to email me about 6 years ago. Send me pictures inside of these big cargo ships. Ask me if I needed money. Made off and still does he makes billions. He always tickled me. I think he has to be studied. TreBert Wild Coyote has come close to letting me rent one of his mansions ( in Ohio ) for 100 bucks a month. But he thinks I'd take pictures of him ( for money ? ) and hand out his phone number. What I want is cheaper housing in Seattle, not Ohio. As it is, I'm doing fine ― so far. Jeff I you need a place to crash in central Florida I have extra rooms. Being a whiz kid you know where I live. Its easy I am in the phone book. AA and Twitty I have made the same offer.My son Ken might drive down for Christmas(I hope) I find it living alone difficult. Glad I have Rudy. TreBert Ps the other day I had to refuse renting my house again. They had no credit,but both worked for the Wal Mart just 3 miles from me,and its manager gave them a good send off. Still I am not going to fly back and have them evicted. Thanks for the offer. If I had a way to get to your house, I might visit you; but you should sell your house, I think, no matter the price. My brother Steve's house is still worth 500 grand, .5 mega dollars. Hope over his fence and you're on MicroSoft's campus, in the woods. ( My sister, who lives nearby, has a net worth of one millions dollars ) Steve is going to dive me to my mom's house, 50 miles south of here. Driving with him is scary ― to say the least ― he gets ultra angry, yelling and thrashing, pounding the stearing wheel, etc. I start to wonder: “ Is this it ? are we going to die here and now ? ”. Last time, he wouldn't share his water with me; so, this time, I'll come prepared with my own bottle. He's dead certain ( thanks to Mormon prophets, he says ) that there'll be nothing but total anarchy, come 2012. Jeff As long as your not driving on a road like Florida I 4 you will be safe. Do not smoke when in his car. I always bring my own beer. Last advice let him do all the talking,and just butter him up Happy Thanksgiving TreBert It's 40 miles to my mom's house and back. I took a motion-sickness pill that lasts all day; so I slept most of time, while my family argued Loudly . I over-eat every day, but even more so today, Thanksgiving. Alt.Astronomy is sedate, from top to bottom, compared to my family. My brother Greg thinks absolutely every male in the world, ― except Howard Stern and Rush Limbaugh ― is “ gay ”.

Homeless Outreach by The Associated Press Tuesday November 18, 2008 NEW YORK -- Emergency outreach teams headed to the streets today amid concerns that a blast of wintry weather could put homeless people in peril. "Extreme cold weather can lead to deaths. We need to make sure that the neediest New Yorkers are protected in severe weather," said Department of Homeless Services Commissioner Robert Hess. Last year, four unsheltered homeless people died in the city during cold weather. Lows of around 25 degrees were forecast from tonight night to Wednesday. The city's Code Blue Cold Weather Emergency Procedure takes effect at 32 degrees. Starting today, the agency had about three dozen outreach teams in vans, ready to respond around the clock to reports of homeless people outdoors or in the subways. Police and Department of Parks teams also perform homeless outreach. They are trained to look for signs of distress including frostbite or hypothermia. Symptoms also include slurred speech, shallow breathing, skin discoloration, blisters and waxy-feeling skin. Officials asked New Yorkers to call the 311 city hotline when they see homeless people. They may request a callback if they'd like to know what action was taken. Homeless people can be coaxed indoors, but not forced unless their life is in danger. In that case, ambulances or police take them to a hospital or other emergency facility. A Code Blue alert also is issued when snow is deeper than 6 inches, with temperatures below 15 degrees; when the wind chill is below zero for 48 hours; or when there are sustained winds of more than 4 mph during an ice storm, freezing rain or coastal flooding. The city has 8,000 beds reserved -- in shelters, drop-in centers, apartments and other buildings including the YMCA or churches. Food also is provided. The last survey taken, in January, counted about 3,300 unsheltered homeless New Yorkers -- down by 25 percent over the past two years, Hess said. Since September, about 900 have been housed, the commissioner said. Hess said there are no figures on whether the homeless population has increased amid the economic downturn. http://www.nj.com/helpinghands/index.ssf/2008/11/cold_prompts_nyc_homeless_outr.html ~ * ~ More Holiday Homelesss Hype ... http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&tab=gn&ned=us&nolr=1&q=homeless&btnG=Search ~ * ~ > They are trained to look for signs of distress including frostbite or > hypothermia.

Speaking from experience, during a 14-degree night last year, the SLURRED SPEECH is a good self-monitoring sign. It's like they say about heat stroke: BY THE TIME YOU ARE IN DANGER, IT IS TOO LATE, because your reflexes to move and think clearly are already compromised. In Rural Areas, Homeless Often Remain Hidden November 20, 2008 By Adam Behsudi News-Post Staff Counting the homeless is not without its challenges. Every year, the Frederick Community Action Agency attempts to tabulate those without homes. Finding regulars to the agency's soup kitchen, food bank and health clinic is the easy part, according to executive director Mike Spurrier. But the challenge of finding the homeless in rural Frederick County can only be met through the cooperation of governments, agencies and residents. In past years, Spurrier said his staff has located people living in substandard housing without indoor plumbing. One person was found sleeping in a garage and another had made a home in a chicken coop.

"We will see hundreds of people who will not have a place to sleep. It's antithetical to what the mayor talks about," said Arnold Cohen, president of the Partnership for the Homeless, a nonprofit that serves as the middleman between the city and faith-based shelters. The city recently began enforcing an often-overlooked rule that requires faith-based shelters to open five days a week, said Cohen who told a score of churches last month they no longer qualify to house the homeless. The city Department of Homeless Services said these shelters - many that have been open three nights a week for decades - should never have been allowed to operate under terms of a contract with the Partnership.
