And we're ushering out this year's Black History Month with words from the Reverend Doctor, Martin Luther King, Jr. . . . and once again hoping that those words will finally begin to date themselves. We're also beginning a Mindful Museum series on what SHOULD be the fifty-first State of our more perfect Union!

A whole lot more than riches and muscle.

And together we'll cross the river."
Song: "The Humbling River"
Band: Puscifer
Lyricists: Mat Mitchell, Tim “Herb” Alexander & Maynard James Keenan.

Dawn also volunteers with UCART (Ulster County Animal Response Team). The Ulster County Animal Response Team (UCART) is a collaboration between The Ulster County Office of Emergency Management, the UCSPCA, the American Red Cross of Northeastern NY and UlsterCorps. Recent extreme weather events in Ulster County, like Hurricanes Irene and Sandy, have underscored the need for a coordinated approach to caring for companion animals as well as people in the event of a disaster or emergency. County Animal Response Teams serve as a specialized resource to assist local emergency management officials, as needed, in all phases of an emergency (mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery) or disaster that impacts animals to ensure the humane care and treatment of animals in case of a disaster, or other situations that cause animal suffering by rescuing, relocating, fostering, etc.; and to assist in protecting public health concerns where humans and animals interact.
