11/11/09 -- Spoke with Patt Lynd-Kyle about her method for using scientific principles to "rewire" your brain.  She has a book and some CDs to help -- see her site at HEALREWIREYOURBRAIN.COM

11/10/09 -- learned about identify theft with a guest from LifeLock.  Visit their site at LIFELOCK.COM.  Plus, she told us about a site where you can get your credit report for free, with no strings attached, nothing to buy, no credit card requests, nada -- ANNUALCREDITREPORT.COM -- and if you stagger them (get one of the 3 reports, every four months), you can get a snapshot 3 times a year.

11/9/09 -- learned about DVDSFORVETS.ORG, which collects and distributes DVDs for veterans around the country.  Visit their site for details.

Thanks to Patti Bland from the Alaska Network on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault for joining Nicole Songer from our own Cordova Family Resource Center.  On, 10/13/05, We had a great discussion on domestic violence, and resources that are available to deal with this tragic situation.

Founded in 1978, the ANDSVA is a statewide coalition made up of twenty domestic violence and sexual assault programs -- and CFRC is one of them.

Almost everyone who heard the Terry Schaivo story was touched by the tragedy.  After we discussed her death on Town Meeting, the Illanka clinic was kind enough to provide us with this document which, if filled out by a family member, might help avoid such a situation if one should ever occur with one of our local families.
