Understanding...*!
Joy Hibbins, a former teacher in Gloucestershire, England, became suicidal following a devastating incident and developed symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. Her own traumatic experience in 2012 led Hibbins to set up the Suicide Crisis charity a year later a lifeline she says helped her also recover personally.
“Their person-centered approach and emphasis on being understanding, kind and gentle is very inspirational, yet so simple and practical. People who have used the service are in no doubt that it has helped save lives,"
More than 800,000 people commit suicide globally every year and many more attempt it, the World Health Organization reported.
Suicide was the second leading cause of death in 2012 among 15- to 29-year-olds, after accidents.
Just a thought.

Short Lived..
San
Francisco 49ers fullback Bruce Miller was reportedly arrested in one of
the stranger stories you’ll hear. And it cost him his job. Miller was arrested for assault after knocking on a hotel room door and attacking two men inside according to KTVU. The 49ers announced shortly after the news broke that they had released Miller.
According
to KTVU, which cited San Francisco police sources, Miller knocked on a
hotel room in Fisherman’s Wharf on Monday morning. He was told by the
room’s occupant that he had the wrong room. Miller then allegedly
attacked the guest, KTVU said, and also attacked his father when the
father came to his son’s aid.
The father is 70 years old, KTVU said, and Miller allegedly punched him in the face. The 70-year-old man suffered broken bones after allegedly getting punched by a 248-pound NFL fullback.

Miller fled, but was apprehended and arrested, KTVU said. The ABC affiliate in San Francisco confirmed the arrest.
KTVU
reported that Miller had tried to check into the hotel on Sunday night
but was told it was booked. He returned Monday morning.
Miller was arrested in 2015
for suspicion of domestic violence, and later pleaded no contest to
disturbing the peace, a misdemeanor. Miller had been with the 49ers
since 2011
Treat....??
More than 7,000 New Yorkers have signed up to obtain non-smokeable marijuana preparations early this year through one of the most cautious medical marijuana programs in the nation. Now, the state is looking to expand it, with plans for home delivery and more dispensaries.
State health officials say they will also allow nurse practitioners to authorize medical cannabis, and are weighing proposals to make chronic pain a qualifying condition for medical cannabis. To make it easier for patients to find doctors, the state may post an online list of physicians who participate in the program.
Twenty-five states and the District of Columbia now have medical marijuana programs. Enrollment rates vary considerably.. Michigan has 182,000. Rhode Island, which has a population 1/20th of New York's, has nearly 12,000.
healthcare providers are stumped when drug after drug failed to curb children's violent seizures.
For sick patients, it really works.
Many joined New York's fledgling medical marijuana program. Early great results reported. Need more info. Just a thought.

Lost Cell?
The case began when Denise Huskins' boyfriend, Aaron Quinn, reported that kidnappers broke into the couple's Vallejo home, abducted her, and demanded an $8,500 ransom.
Quinn's lawyers have said he awoke to a bright light in his face, and two kidnappers bound and drugged him.
The 29-year-old Denise turned up safe two days later in her hometown of Huntington Beach, [200 miles plus], where she says she was dropped off. She showed up just hours before the ransom was due.
Later that day, Vallejo police said at a news conference the kidnapping was a hoax.
The case took another bizarre twist when federal prosecutors announced they charged a soon-to-be disbarred Harvard-trained lawyer with her abduction.
Authorities say this case may have finally come together because the suspect in all of this, 38-year-old Matthew Muller, apparently left his cellphone behind at the most recent home invasion. He's now suspected in a string of violent crimes.
The FBI says Muller was charged last month after he was arrested in South Lake Tahoe in connection with a home-invasion robbery that had similarities to the kidnapping.
The couple, stood with their hands held tightly, with the attorneys who called for the Vallejo Police Department to issue an apology.
Many thought this case is a hoax. It came to an end because of the police actions or lack thereof which emboldened the kidnapper. Just a thought.
Is it over...?
Okay, everyone can go home
now. Time to wrap this election up. The Almighty has cast his vote for
president, and the forecast is grim: cloudy with a chance of Trump.
Do you see it? The sweeping wisps of hair, the angular nose, the smug mouth, the soft chin (weak!).
The
undeniable likeness of presidential candidate Donald Trump was spotted
in the skies over Chicago on August 15, and we humans carried on like
this wasn't a sign from God himself that Donald J. Trump will certainly
be the next president of the United States.
The image was originally posted by Fox 32 Chicago and then tweeted out by Trump's executive vice president, Michael Cohen (of "Says who?" fame), late Saturday night. [By Peter Wade
For some, this may be itttttt. Just a thought.
