This one got to me
Hi everybody, last week I was perusing the Huffington Post ‘s Impact section when I came across Lucia Duran’s story and it really struck a cord with me and so I decided to donate a few dollars to help her out. This charity drive is part of the 12 families, 12 cities, and 12 days that the Huffington Post is running to raise modest sums for various families in need this holiday season.
Lucia’s story of recovery from various periods of domestic violence and her will to strive for a better life for herself and her kids just broke my heart.
After reading the article last week on Christmas Eve, just couldn’t get her son’s picture out of my mind. He’s so young and yet he has already had to deal with such awful problems. I have to say that I have been, well, haunted by his intense, yet hopeful face, but why? I guess I saw both my son and myself together in his expression. This is something heavy that I haven’t quite worked out but it has knocked me for loop. So I sent a few bucks. It would be so great if the cycle of violence ended with Lucia’s son, Juan Pablo and her daughter, Fatima.
All the families that the Huffington Post is highlighting are very deserving, but I felt I just had to bring more attention to this one story. So if you have a few dollars to spare and still feel a little more holiday spirit, take the plunge and donate to a lady that is really trying to pick herself and her children up by the bootstraps.
I read the article, and I just wasn’t the same
The 12 families, 12 cities, and 12 days event ends on the 1st of January so there is only three days left. There is still time to a little that can make a big difference.
Lucia and her kids have received a lot help from the Homeless Prenatal Program and they're worth checking out too.
Thanks
Happy New Year everyone

Happy Chinese New Year
Year of the Ox...
All I found was this cover with a 1960s' villain named the Ox... so this will have to do.

Happy New Year: Yesterday Dies Today!
The old 1970s Deathlok the Demolisher cyborg is another of my favorite characters. I felt the cover blurb "Yesterday Dies Today!" from Astonishing Tales #31 very appropriate for the New Year.
I think he shoud be the new Capatin America!
Be safe and have fun.
