It's the other 10% that have to worry!

Right

The post below isn't reassuring.

Muse

With Meraki at Muse!
Artists inspired to create works of art with soul, creativity, and love — when you put "something of yourself" into what you're doing it's created with meraki, whatever it may be!
Koru‽




meraki [may-rah-kee] (adjective)
This is a word that modern Greeks often use to describe doing something with soul, creativity, or love — when you put "something of yourself" into what you're doing, whatever it may be. Meraki is often used to describe cooking or preparing a meal, but it can also mean arranging a room, choosing decorations, or setting an elegant table.

Chalice Reaches Out to Help Those Affected by Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda)

 In response to the devastation in Philippines by typhoon Haiyan, (Yolanda), Chalice is collecting funds to assist with humanitarian efforts. A shortage of food, medicine and shelter is impacting families in the city of Tacloban and surrounding areas of Central Philippines where both immediate and ongoing support will be needed. Chalice’s focus is on the recovery and reconstruction of the affected communities.

Chalice would like to reassure sponsors that our Sponsor Site in Samar was not affected by the storm. This Site received heavy rain but there was no loss of life or damage to property and all our children are well.

Although our sponsored children are safe from harm, this disaster affects the country as a whole and Chalice will continue to work with trusted partners to deliver assistance where needed. Please give now.

“For over 15 years Chalice has worked with our partners in the Philippines to alleviate the suffering of those in extreme poverty,” states Fr. Pat, President of Chalice. “Right now, even as we speak, Chalice is mobilizing and directing all our efforts to rebuilding homes and supporting families devastated by this tragedy.”

The Canadian government is matching donations by individual Canadians for the Typhoon Haiyan Relief Fund. All donations given to Chalice in support of our Philippines Disaster Relief Fund betweenNovember 9 and December 9 2013 will be submitted for matching by the government.

For the last four years Chalice has been recognized as the top International Aid and Development charity in Canada by MoneySense Magazine.

To help those affected by Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines please visit chalice.ca or phone 1.800.776.6855. All support should be directed to DF PGen1113 or marked as Philippines Disaster Relief.

Fire guts home after smart meter installed


The meter base is part of the house
and thus any damage or faulty wiring
is the customer's responsibility‽
