On May 5, the Redford Branch of the Detroit Public Library closed for renovation. Although the library is closed for the next several months, there will be a lot of activity inside the library. According to assistant branch manager, youth librarian and Rosedale Park resident Conja Wright, there are a lot of improvements in the works. “The carpeting will be removed and replaced with tile in the public areas, new, lower shelving will replace the tall shelves which will open up the main room to natural light, and the number of computers will double and move to the center of the main room.” For the month of May, the librarians will be looking more closely at their collection, discussing the removal of books that haven’t been checked out for seven years to make room for more, and more recent publications. An African-American reading and research collection will also be added which will feature books on African-American history, culture and art, children’s books and a research collection for use as reference in the library. There will even be artwork and artifacts such as a king’s stool, a helmet, crown and dolls on display.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 14px;">
If you came to the first Grandmont Rosedale SOUP last summer, you will remember that Conja’s meditation and reading garden for the library project won. The plans for the garden are well underway with eight organic raised beds. Starting in early June Conja welcomes volunteers to help develop the garden and is particularly interested in gathering “an intergenerational group of volunteers” because she strongly believes that “so much learning goes on” when people of different ages work together. Volunteers of all ages are encouraged to come to the library garden Tuesdays from 10am-12pm and Thursdays from 3-5pm until the end of July. The hope is that the garden will be an outdoor library space appropriate for storytelling and spoken word performances.</div>

Detroit’s historic Eastern Market is excited to announce a new market day and a daring departure from our classic Farmers Market Faire: The Sunday Street Market will feature local goods such as toys, collectibles, furniture, clothing, jewelry, accessories and art work, just to name a few. A limited number of produce and flower vendors will also be on hand.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
If you’re looking for an alternative shopping experience versus what you find at big-box stores or shopping malls, then this Market Day is for you!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
For over a century, Eastern Market has been pivotal in connecting the citizens of Metro Detroit with farm fresh food and plants while revolutionizing the local food systems in the region. Sunday Street Market seeks to accomplish a similar mission for non-food goods.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. every Sunday starting June 1st running through September 28th, visitors to Eastern Market will find Shed 2 bustling with local products and find Shed 3featuring weekly entertainment activities. Food trucks will also be present.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Interested in selling during the new Sunday Street Market? Vendor questions and inquiries can be directed to Amanda Gregory, Sunday Market Manager at 313-833-9300 ext. 117. Find a Vendor Handbook, Market Days Description and Application form below.<br />

Eastern Market Corporation began Detroit Eastern Market Tuesdays in the summer of 2011. "Tuesdays" feature a sampling our historic Market experience through the inclusion of farmers, flowers, produce dealers, specialty products, and prepared-food vendors.<br />
<br />
"Tuesdays" are a weekly community celebration full of special events highlighting the agricultural, social, culinary, and artistic treasures of our city, region, and state.<br />
<br />
For 2014 we are happy to announce the season will run from June 17-October 28, with an additional Thanksgiving Market on November 25. The market hours are 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. <br />
<br />
"Tuesdays" offer shoppers many of the same convenient services as our Saturday Market, including the <a href="http://www.detroiteasternmarket.com/page.php?p=1&s=48">Eastern Market Bridge Card Program</a>, <a href="http://www.doubleupfoodbucks.org/">Double Up Food Bucks</a>, educational events, culinary demonstrations, community exercise classes, and non-profit outreach opportunities.<br />
<br />
Come shop, eat, play, and join us in our Tuesday adventure! <br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There’s no doubt about it: you’ve made the decision to eat healthy. The only question that remains is what exactly eating healthy means. Organic, free-range, natural, local… and alkaline? Believe it or not, that pH scale you learned all about in high school should be finding its way into your diet: it’s time to talk acid or alkaline when it comes to food.</span></div>
<h3 style="font-size: 24.5px; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: -1px; line-height: 40px; margin: 10px 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
Why You Need More Alkalizing Foods</span></h3>
<div style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Several diets highlight the <a href="http://www.macrobioticcooking.com/6.html" style="-webkit-transition: 500ms; color: #f47323; text-decoration: none; transition: 500ms;" target="_blank">alkaline-acid</a> discrepancy; what it boils down to is this: most people need not worry about not having enough acidity in their diet. The vast majority of foods we eat every day are acidic: meat, cheese, dairy… all of these foods and many more are metabolized by our bodies as acidic. Including important alkaline foods in your diet involves a bit more planning.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5em;">All of which begs one all-important question: why?</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before talking about how to introduce alkaline foods into your diet, you may be asking why you should even bother. Good question, with an even better answer. A <a href="http://foodmatters.tv/articles-1/acid-alkaline-tips-for-balancing-your-diet" style="-webkit-transition: 500ms; color: #f47323; text-decoration: none; transition: 500ms;" target="_blank">highly acidic diet</a> lends itself to decay of the body, particularly the bones and muscles. Some studies point to the naturally <a href="http://donmatesz.blogspot.fr/2010/03/paleo-diet-ph-does-it-matter-part-ii.html" style="-webkit-transition: 500ms; color: #f47323; text-decoration: none; transition: 500ms;" target="_blank">high-acid diet </a>of the Eskimo as one principal factor why this group suffers from such low bone density. In Japan, <a href="http://seattlenaturalhealth.com/osteoporosis.html" style="-webkit-transition: 500ms; color: #f47323; text-decoration: none; transition: 500ms;" target="_blank">bone density</a> is, on average, much higher; the Japanese diet naturally includes a variety of<a href="http://www.konjacfoods.com/noodles/14.htm" style="-webkit-transition: 500ms; color: #f47323; text-decoration: none; transition: 500ms;" target="_blank">alkaline foods</a>.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em;">It bears mention that many proponents of alkaline-heavy diets cite other benefits to such a diet. These include but are not limited to <a href="http://www.livestrong.com/article/289435-alkaline-diet-for-gerd/" style="color: #f47323; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">acid reflux</a> and high <a href="http://chriskresser.com/the-ph-myth-part-1" style="color: #f47323; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">blood acidity</a>. While an alkaline diet has been proven to help with the former, certain recent studies have deduced that blood acidity is not affected by diet on a long-term basis. Blood, being a naturally acidic substance, self-regulates, and while a highly alkaline diet can change the pH of blood for a period of time, the effects are far from permanent.</span></div>

How to Add Alkaline</span></h3>
<div style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At this point, you may have already started making a mental list of alkaline foods… or so you think. The acidity and alkalinity of the food in question is not always linked to the makeup of the food itself. <a href="http://www.vitalitylink.com/article-holistic-health-2055-lemon-juice-acidic-alkaline-body-water" style="-webkit-transition: 500ms; color: #f47323; text-decoration: none; transition: 500ms;" target="_blank">Lemon</a>, for example, may taste highly acidic, but the way that it is broken down in the body is actually alkaline.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px;">

<div style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">“Not everyone wants
to be self-employed, and voluntarily leaving a job in today’s economy can</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> sound
as crazy as burning provisions in a famine,” she said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">This is a how-to book
with a lot of useful takeaways. Palmer says the most successful side businesses</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> have these characteristics:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● Low start-up costs.
“As side-giggers showed me over and over again, there’s no need to spend big </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">before you start earning.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● Fits well with your
full-time work and doesn’t pose a conflict, “which usually means they can be</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> done on your own schedule,” she writes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● Takes advantage of
your skill set.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● The hustle is fun.
It can’t be just about the money.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Don’t underestimate
this last point. How many side businesses have you failed at because you didn’t </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">really like the job? Do you really want to stuff envelopes or take online
surveys?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Palmer says to ask
yourself these questions:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● Which fields are
growing?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● Which problems can
I solve?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">● Can I realistically
get paid to do what I like?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">So can you create
“hybrid income” for yourself? To help you see the possibility, Palmer
introduces</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> you to hustling entrepreneurs who are cake bakers, home organizers
and video editors. She talks</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> about her own entrepreneurial venture that she
operates on an e-commerce Web site.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Palmer walks you
through various business issues, such as figuring out what business to create, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">finding a place to sell your goods or services, branding, marketing and making
the time to do it all.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> You’ll find exercises and worksheets.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Not sure where to
start? She’s got an appendix with the top 50 side gigs. She describes the jobs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> best suited for certain individuals and lists the resources needed to get
started.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">I also love that she
lists the entrepreneurs mentioned in the book and their side businesses and how </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">you can reach them. Among the side-giggers is a social-media manager who has a
career blog, an instrument repairer who does voiceovers and a graphic designer
who is a classical singer. What a </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">lovely way to expose these entrepreneurs to
more business.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<div style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">One thing that drove
Palmer to write the book is that many people she talked to said their side </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">business helped them have peace of mind. Having the extra money and knowing you
can make a </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">way for yourself should you lose your main job “can feel a little
more stable even in an economy </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">that isn’t.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 20.4pt; mso-outline-level: 3;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Part 1</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Do you fear losing
your job?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">If so, you are like a
lot of people these days — and you’ll be interested in “<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0814432735/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0814432735&linkCode=as2&tag=thewaspos09-20"><span style="color: #005b88;">The Economy of You: Discover Your Inner Entrepreneur and
Recession-Proof Your Life</span></a>” by Kimberly Palmer. It is the Color of
Money Book Club selection for February.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Palmer, senior money
editor and consumer blogger at U.S. News & World Report, argues that in a
world of zero job security, you need to create a stream of income in addition
to your regular 9-to-5 job.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">“Relying solely on a
single employer is a sure-fire way to end up struggling, as so many Americans
do,” Palmer writes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Palmer is pretty
pessimistic about the American job market.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">“Those of us lucky
enough to hold on to our jobs face pay cuts, benefit reductions and longer
hours, along with the unsettling feeling that those jobs could disappear at any
moment.” And she adds, “We can’t pretend that our employers have our best
interests in mind or even that they will continue being our employers for much
longer.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">This should strike
fear in anyone’s heart, especially as we continue to see reports about how long
it takes for many people to find work after they’ve lost a job. Palmer cites a
Gallup survey that found that many workers worry about being laid off or fear a
reduction in benefits. But as my niece, who is a therapist in New York, likes
to remind me, “Feelings aren’t facts.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Unemployment is still
too high, but millions of people have built a good life just working for
others, and many will continue to do so. Yet Palmer has a point. You can help
control your financial fate by creating income that is independent of your day
job. There are so many side-gig options, especially with the Internet and
social media.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 16.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">“Not everyone wants
to be self-employed, and voluntarily leaving a job in today’s economy can sound
as crazy as burning provisions in a famine,” she said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Alice Victoria Schneider is a Detroit-based visual artist whose work is a combination of sculpture, painting, printmaking and filmmaking. She focuses on movement as a theme, highlighting motion, form, and speed with effects of still-life painting in mind. Schneider is intrigued by the concept of "film as painting". When making her filmed paintings, she set the stage with artworks that she has created, allowing the more traditional art seeker to have something tangible.</span><br />

In just ten years following his emigration to the United States as a laborer in 1917, Marcus Garvey rose to lead the largest black organization in history, was taken to prison in handcuffs, and was eventually deported. <em style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;"><strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">Marcus Garvey: Look For Me in the Whirlwind </strong></em> is the dramatic story of the rise and fall of an African American leader who influenced politics and culture around the world. Directed by Stanley Nelson. Running time: 90 minutes.</div>

The summer of 1967 in Detroit was hot, but no one suspected how hot it would get. At <strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">1300 Lafayette East</strong>, downtown Detroit’s newest high-rise, this beautiful building is a symbol of integrated urban living for the Motor City. High above the streets, one could forget the tensions building in the city. Home to Elly, a young Jewish housewife wishing for something new in her life, and Renna, an aspiring young Motown singer hoping for her big break, these women forge a friendship that causes them to see the world in very different ways. Can their friendship withstand the explosion yet to come on July 23rd, 1967?</div>

<div align="left" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">So, let’s see. Here are just a few of the many things eating more greens can do for you:</span></div>
<div align="left" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

<div style="font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em;">

You lose water throughout the day-through your breath, sweat, urine, and bowel movements. If you live in a hot climate, you lose even more fluid.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 3px; padding: 0px;">
You need to replace this lost fluid to stay healthy. If you don’t get enough water, you could become <a href="http://www.webmd.com/hw-popup/dehydration" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">dehydrated</a>. If you get very dehydrated, your body no longer has enough fluid to get <a href="http://www.webmd.com/heart/anatomy-picture-of-blood" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">blood</a> to your organs. This is dangerous.</div>

Do you have to drink only water to stay hydrated?</h4>

All liquids help you stay hydrated. Water is usually the best choice, because it’s free (if you’re drinking tap water) and has no sugar or calories. But most healthy people can get enough fluid through the beverages they consume every day. These can include water, fruit juices, coffee, sodas, iced tea, and other drinks.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 3px; padding: 0px;">
Experts say that it's not true that beverages that have <a href="http://www.webmd.com/balance/caffeine-myths-and-facts" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">caffeine</a>-such as coffee, tea, and cola drinks-always dehydrate you. Healthy people who consume moderate amounts of caffeine don't lose more fluid than people who don't have any caffeine.<span class="Reference" style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 8px; vertical-align: text-top;"><a href="http://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/drinking-enough-water-references#abk6751" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">1</a></span>A moderate amount of caffeine is about 200 to 300 milligrams a day. That's about two to four 8-ounce cups of coffee.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 3px; padding: 0px;">
You also get water through food. Some <a href="http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/features/fruits-veggies-more-matters" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">fruits and vegetables</a> contain a lot of water, such as watermelon and lettuce.</div>

How much water do you need to drink every day?</h4>
<h1 class="title" style="border: 0px; color: #2d4567; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 30px; line-height: 30px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">

A common recommendation is to drink six or eight 8-ounce glasses of water or other fluid every day. But some adults may need more or less, depending on how healthy they are, how much they <a href="http://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/fitness-toc-old" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">exercise</a>, and how hot and dry the climate is.</div>

You may sometimes need to drink more water than usual if you:</div>

How can you tell if you are drinking enough water?</h4>
<h1 class="title" style="border: 0px; color: #2d4567; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 30px; line-height: 30px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 3px; padding: 0px;">
The easiest way to know if you’re drinking enough fluid is to look at the color of your urine. If you’re drinking enough water, your urine will be clear or pale yellow. A darker yellow means you aren’t drinking enough water.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 3px; padding: 0px;">
People who drink enough water also usually have soft bowel movements. Hard bowel movements or <a href="http://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/digestive-diseases-constipation" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">constipation</a> can be signs that you aren’t getting enough water.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 3px; padding: 0px;">
If you have any health problems, always talk to your doctor before increasing the amount of water you drink. You may need to limit your fluids if you have certain health concerns, such as <a href="http://www.webmd.com/urinary-incontinence-oab/picture-of-the-kidneys" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">kidney</a> problems or <a href="http://www.webmd.com/heart-disease/heart-failure/default.htm" style="color: #3789b9; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">heart failure</a>.</div>

<b>City of Women </b>is an exhibition of paintings by five highly accomplished Detroit area women. It examines the role of environment, circumstance, and imagination in the creation of beauty. Though not a literal meditation on the city or womanhood, those factors come into play.<br />
These five painters, although ethnically diverse and different in style, have somehow arrived at the same plane of beauty, creativity, and imagination here in Detroit, a city that is as diverse as it is resilient; a city itself that has proven to be a breeding ground for all things creative; a City of Women.<br />
Exhibit run January 1 - 4, 7 - 10 & 14<br />
Times vary call ahead for details.<br />

The 41st annual Noel Night will take place on Saturday, December 7th, 2013, from 5:00pm-10:00pm in Midtown Detroit. Over 70 Midtown venues, including the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Michigan Science Center, the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History, the Detroit Historical Museum, and the Detroit Public Library, amongst many others, will open their doors to the public FREE of CHARGE during this Cultural Center-wide holiday "open house." Activities will include holiday shopping, horse-drawn carriage rides, family craft activities and performances by over 200 area music, theatre, and dance groups. The evening's festivities will culminate with a community sing-along on Woodward Avenue led by the Salvation Army Band—a long-standing Noel Night tradition.<br />
Free shuttle service is offered between participating venues. Convenient parking is available in area lots. Noel Night is produced by Midtown Detroit, Inc., a nonprofit community development organization that supports economic growth in Detroit's Midtown district.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Discover animation like never before. Suspend belief and let the magic of animation reveal imaginary worlds and experimental imagery. With Watch Me Move, the Detroit Institute of Arts brings to metro Detroit the most extensive animation show ever mounted, featuring both iconic moments and lesser-known masterpieces from the last 150 years. Visitors will have the rare opportunity to see an incredible array of animation techniques in over 100 animated film segments from across generations and cultures. The exhibition includes animation’s great inventors, innovators, and artists, from Georges Méliès and Chuck Jones to William Kentridge and Tim Burton, as well as animation studios such as Walt Disney, Aardman, Studio Ghibli, and Pixar. This immersive exhibition invites visitors to discover animation—from the familiar to the eccentric—through large-scale projections and intimate viewing spaces. The experience extends into the Detroit Film Theatre which will be showing a selection of feature-length animation, festival compilations and personal appearances by contemporary animators over the course of the exhibition.</span></div>

The inaugural Grandmont Rosedale SOUP event far exceeded expectations this past Sunday, July 21st. Just over 150 people came out to support and vote for the community development project of their choice. The crowd heard compelling proposals from four presenters seeking to fund projects, but the night’s winner was Dr. Conja Wright from the Redford Branch of the Detroit Public Library. Her proposal for Meditation and Reading Park was awarded $1,183.75 by the community! The project includes the development of a strip of land adjacent to the Redford Branch Library as an area to sit, read and/or meditate.<br />
<br />
The next Grandmont Rosedale SOUP will be held in October. Dr. Wright will be in attendance to update the community on the progress of the Meditation and Reading Park Project. Start thinking about proposals now, the application process for Grandmont Rosedale SOUP will open again in September.<br />
<br />
Thanks to all who showed up in support of the community. A special thanks to the Grandmont Rosedale SOUP committee – Amanda Brewington, Sarah Craft, Razi Jafri, Kevin Johnson, Becki Kenderes, Blake Maurice, Tom Ridgway, Sean VandenBrink and Liz Wroughton, muralist Susan VandenBrink and volunteers who helped paint. Also thanks to the generous cooks who provided soup or salad for the night – Karen Moore, Chris Ridgway, Phil Schloop, Darlene Taylor, Liz Wroughton and Kenneth Wolfe.<br />

Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana's life will end, long before it has a chance to begin.

<span style="background-color: #f7f4f2; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">Twelve-year-old CeeCee is in trouble. For years she’s been the caretaker of her psychotic mother, Camille— the crown-wearing, lipstick-smeared laughingstock of an entire town. Though it’s 1967 and they live in Ohio, Camille believes it’s 1951 and she’s just been crowned the Vidalia Onion Queen of Georgia. The day CeeCee discovers Camille in the front yard wearing a tattered prom dress and tiara as she blows kisses to passing motorists, she knows her mother has completely flipped.</span><br />

<div>
Reality can be constricting. </div>
<div>
Life is full of people who will tell you what is and how things should be,
limiting what can and could be. </div>
<div>
Life is full of people who offer rules that shouldn't be broken and boxes
that should never be thought outside of...</div>
<div>
Don't sweat it though, just remember life is what you make it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Exercise your mind to think creatively.</div>
<div>
Creative thinking transforms victims into survivors and underdogs
into heroes.</div>
<div>
A creative mind understands that nothing is totally permanent leaving
everything subject to change.</div>
<div>
Maintain an optimistic outlook towards the future and push for a better
tomorrow.</div>
<div>
Remain fresh...<br />

I <em>made </em>you a girl. But that ain’t what you was supposed to be. So, from now on, you gon’ be a boy. It’ll be a little strange at first, but you’ll get used to it, and this’ll be over after while.” <br /> From this point forward, his life becomes a bizarre kaleidoscope of events. Meanwhile, the Peace family is forced to question everything they thought they knew about gender, sexuality, unconditional love, and fulfillment.</span></span></div>

<div style="word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">King: A Reflection on the Life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is a spoken word piece by playwright/librettist Sandra Seaton accompanied by spirituals performed a cappella by tenor George Shirley. King, a mixture of poetry and brief reflections, remembers Rev. King as an individual with human limitations who nevertheless answered the call to leadership. His life serves as a model for those, especially the young, who might feel that any imperfection disqualifies them from leadership. The work, divided into four sections, “Nobel-man,” “Chicago,” “Bottles and Rocks,” and "Memphis 1968,” takes us on the journey of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as he struggled to bring civil rights to the United States.</span></div>

It tells the tragic story of the romantic but empty-headed Emma Rouault. When Emma marries Charles Bovary, she imagines she will pass into the life of luxury and passion that she reads about in sentimental novels and women's magazines. But Charles is an ordinary country doctor, and provincial life is very different from the romantic excitement for which she yearns. In her quest to realize her dreams she takes a lover, Rodolphe, and begins a devastating spiral into deceit and despair. And Flaubert captures every step of this catastrophe with sharp-eyed detail and a wonderfully subtle understanding of human emotions. </div>

Through candid interviews with soul food cooks, historians, and scholars, as well as with doctors, family members, and everyday people, the film puts this culinary tradition under the microscope to examine both its positive and negative consequences. Hurt also explores the socioeconomic conditions in predominantly black neighborhoods, where it can be difficult to find healthy options, and meets some pioneers in the emerging food justice movement who are challenging the food industry, encouraging communities to “go back to the land” by creating sustainable and eco-friendly gardens, advocating for healthier options in local supermarkets, supporting local farmers' markets, avoiding highly processed fast foods, and cooking healthier versions of traditional soul food.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">It is the week before Christmas. A tanking economy has prompted Dr. Kay Scarpetta-despite her busy schedule and her continuing work as the senior forensic analyst for CNN- to offer her services pro bono to New York City's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. In no time at all, her increased visibility seems to precipitate a string of unexpected and unsettling events. She is asked live on the air about the sensational case of Hannah Starr, who has vanished and is presumed dead. Moments later during the same telecast, she receives a startling call-in from a former psychiatric patient of Benton Wesley's. When she returns after the show to the apartment where she and Benton live, she finds an ominous package-possibly a bomb-waiting for her at the front desk. Soon the apparent threat on Scarpetta's life finds her embroiled in a surreal plot that includes a famous actor accused of an unthinkable sex crime and the disappearance of a beautiful millionairess with whom Lucy seems to have shared a secret past.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.4;">Nancy Harmon long ago fled the heartbreak of her first marriage, the macabre deaths of her two little children, and the shocking charges against her. She changed her name, dyed her hair, and left California for the windswept peace of Cape Cod. Now remarried, she has two more beloved children, and the terrible pain has begun to heal -- until the morning when she looks in the backyard for her little boy and girl and finds only one red mitten. She knows that the nightmare is beginning again....</span></div>

<strong>Share numbers with your kids.</strong> It's many adults' guilty secret that they learn as much from reading children's books as their kids do. <em>How Much Is A Million?</em> and <em>On Beyond A Million</em>, both by David M. Schwartz, are good resources for conceptualizing big numbers. Another great pair of books is <em>Family Math</em> and <em>Family Math For Young Children</em>, full of math puzzles and games to do with your kids. Lastly, why tell only stories at night? Give your kids a bedtime math problem as well; read more about that <span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT249" style="color: darkblue; cursor: pointer;"><a href="http://anniemurphypaul.us2.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=bc04df008d4705e4e77c2eb35&id=1005b8c296&e=e24d6f22d8" style="color: #3692df; cursor: pointer;" target="_blank">here</a></span>.</div>

<strong><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Say No to Soda Pop for the Month of
November</span></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Did you know soda pop is the No. 1 source of added sugar and extra calories in
the American diet? <br /><br />According to research:</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">One 20-ounce bottle has 17-19 teaspoons of
sugar.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">Artificial sweeteners found in diet pop,
like aspartame, increase sugar cravings that lead to ingesting other sugar-laden
foods.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">Adults who drink one or more sodas or other
sugar-sweetened beverages each day are 27% more likely to be overweight or
obese.</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Arial;"> For these reason, <b>Sinai-Grace is declaring
November <em><u>Say No to Soda Pop</u> </em>month</b>. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">November is significant because it begins the holiday
season where most Americans pack on the extra pounds. One guaranteed way to
decrease the likelihood of weight gain is to attack its major contributor - Soda
Pop. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial;"> Both regular and diet soda drinks are,
at minimum, responsible for weight-control issues and diseases such as obesity,
diabetes and cancer. The evidence is overwhelming that soda pop causes
significant harm to our bodies, yet soda pop drinkers really don't understand to
what extent.</span><br />
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Soda pop contains phosphoric acid, which weakens bones
and rots teeth.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></li>
</ul>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The aluminum cans contain an epoxy resin called
Bisphenol A (BPA), which keeps the soda acid from reacting with the metal.
BPA has been linked to infertility, obesity, diabetes and some
reproductive cancers.<o:p></o:p></span></li>
</ul>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The dyes in the soda have been linked to impaired brain
function, hyperactive behavior, difficulty focusing and lack of impulse
control.<o:p></o:p></span></li>
</ul>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Potassium benzoate is a preservative that can be broken
down to benzene in your body. When exposed to the sun, for example, your
soda becomes a carcinogen. <o:p></o:p></span></li>

Welcome to India’s Barefoot College, where rural, poor, and often illiterate women from around the world are offered the rare opportunity to receive an education that teaches them how to make their communities self-reliant and sustainable. Rafea, a beautiful, strong-willed 32-year-old Jordanian mother of four, is traveling outside of her village for the first time ever to attend Barefoot’s solar engineering program. Once there, she will join women from Guatemala, Kenya, Burkina Faso, and Colombia in a life-changing, six-month job training program that will transform her into a solar engineer — and change her life.</div>

This film tells the epic tale from the inside, following 3 years in the lives of laid off workers trying to reinvent themselves; business leaders aligned with the Governor to promote a pro business agenda that they believe will woo new companies to town, and a state senator caught in the middle, trying to bring peace to his warring state and protect workers’ rights. As Goes Janesville, so goes America, a country mired in polarization and falling short of the American Dream.</span></div>
