Wheels in Motion Worcester recovered nicely from Nemo's winter fury earlier this month, but for the city's disabled community the storm left behind barriers beyond those they already grapple with each and every day. Many sidewalks, framed on either side by mounds of snow, became skinny pathways clogged by upright pedestrians, forcing people like Steve Stolberg, who works downtown, to jerk his wheelchair to and fro as he made his way through bustling crowds rushing to get on and off the buses outside City Hall. Survey reveals 'shocking' youth homelessness problem Clark University Associate Professor Dr. Laurie Ross may be on sabbatical this semester, but she and others have worked tirelessly to get to the heart of the city's youth homeless problem. Those efforts have received a substantial boost on the strength of a $450,000 grant from the Health Foundation of Central Mass, which ensures the continuation of The Compass Project and its work to prevent youth and young adult homelessness through a network of access points around the city. Changes could be in store for College Consortium The Colleges of Worcester Consortium (CWC) undergoes an assessment every year and there is talk this time around that the 40-plus-year-old nonprofit organization could dissolve entirely. That appears unlikely, but there may well be several changes made to how the Consortium, which counts 12 area colleges and universities among its members, operates. Just what those changes might be is anybody's guess at the moment. The Orgasm On the first floor of a triple-decker in Worcester with a view of Union Station, a woman sits across the table from a man she loves unconditionally. When asked how important the orgasm is to her sex life with Dale, Leigh says with certainty, "The orgasm isn't half as important as seeing him." She looks softly at her husband and says, "I have the orgasm because I'm seeing his face. It's so wonderful because he's there." Leigh locks eyes with Dale and with full honesty tells him, "The orgasm is a sideline to you."

Wonderful Book very inspiring and heartwarming. This is the story of a little cat, Buckley, who lived her life to the fullest. Even though she only had three years with Ingrid and Amber she made the most of them and hopes to come back in a new body to spend more time with them.

He’s Missed His Momma

To contact us Click HERE

It’s no secret that Ledger has had a rough past few months. Yes, I know, it only gets worse when they hit two…so I’ve been told, but lately, we’ve seemed to have a little monster on our hands.

Last week I reached 14 weeks, and Voilà, just like that, I became a whole new person. I quit throwing up, and have only taken Zofran (meds for nausea) a couple of times. I’m up off the couch, cleaning like a madwoman, attempting to exercise, cooking, and back on the floor playing with Ledger. All the while Ledger is suffering from TV withdrawals…because that’s all we did for the past couple of months. But as my energy is returning, so is my happy little boy. Just like that, the tantrums are down to a bare minimum, and I realize how hard the past few months have not only been on Patrick and I, but on Ledger. This past week, I’ve received more hugs and kisses from my little guy than I have in ages. I think it’s safe to say he’s missed his Momma.

I realized Pat noticed the difference in Ledger as well, because just today I received this text from him.

“I’m worried about Ledge, I just don’t want him to get ignored or forgotten about during this whole process of twins and everything else.”

Sledgehammer, just know we love you more than anything. I know that our future will only get crazier from here on out, but never forget that your dad and I are crazy about you. So here’s to an amazing next few months, I’m going to be down on the floor playing choo choo trains, cars, and whatever else you want until I’m just too big to move.
