For all the words poured into a daily, I can attract more than in his letters to the editor. A good day, they tell us what is possible, if our hearts and souls are driven by what Abraham Lincoln as a “better angels of our nature.”

Maybe is exciting, regular monitoring of the letter of visitors on our territory, with some fluctuations, by a stranger. Whenever the recipient ends with a tribute to the goodwill and generosity of the people of our region.

Recently, I was abroad this scenario. But, as so often said life, my story is not the classic plot.

On Feb. 18, my wife was at home when she discovered a pipe portfolio on a road near our home. They are at home and that no cash, but their contents - driver’s license, social security card, credit card, health insurance card - would be a treat for a thief d ‘identity.

The owner has been consulted by the Central Kentucky, where by chance, I lived in the 1980’s. I tried tracking the first to research on the Internet. The best I can do is to find someone with a similar name but a different first half, in his hometown. I called one of his credit cards to the company, but it might not information. Finally, I have a connection with the call of his medical insurance to him my phone number and he called me.

He was a construction worker temporarily, in the region of a mobile tower and stay in a hotel in Horsham. He did not cash and / or having a car, he said he could not drive to his portfolio. The man with the same name in his town was his grandfather, “he says. And it took some time to Lexington, Ky., where I lived for almost four years.

I told him that I would be the vessel wallet, the next morning, and he promised at my expense. When it is on the portfolio on Feb. 20, he called me and said he would send me one for money to send to a $ 22.16 fee for a few days.

It was a good feeling - do a good deed, responds with a word of thanks and a promise of reimbursement of expenses.

And then I heard nothing.

After one week, the hotel and I said he had examined. I called his cell phone number and received voicemail home by someone else - and a message that the mailbox was full. I wrote a letter to him on the grandfather, in Kentucky, to say he might have lost my address, and that is why it is not for me to newcomer .

Now, more than a month later, I know that I am not going to hear from him. Which leaves me to do some research and soul thoughts.

The first is the formal notice eternal, that we can not control our own actions and not those of others. In my heart I know I have adjusted and need to feel good about it. Yes, I deal with the situation would have been more prudent, but what is the meaning of the second guess? I guess I left the wallet in the custody of the local police, but would then I wonder if it has never been back to its owner.

These lies, the curiosity of the other factor: interconnection, we have as human beings. We have not only an obligation to help others, we have a need. It is part of the substance, we call it the fundamental decency of the human spirit. In America, we call it our sense of fair play. This is the idea that if we are all together, on a voluntary basis, we will achieve great things, and find a sparkling source of goodwill in the process.

Each incident like me, but rather for us more insular, cynical, will be more likely to “not interfere.” That defense May protect us against the wounds of confidence, but also in the process that eventually it something else is better than the angels of our nature.

Third baseman James Darnell home runs three goals in a match - tying entrance of the school - for the second time in 11 days. He did so against the Patriots Point of Charleston.

Sunday, with low temperatures in the 40’s, has proved to be a very slugfest. Dombrowski USC Blake and Cooper’s advantage of the cold conditions to keep the boys opponent on the overall balance.

Like many of the “over-the-top birthday parties, which generally is” My Super Sweet 16 “on MTV, Ariel’s holidays, fairy tales, Princess subject to new heights.

Charrettes horse-drawn young guests have provided a false Castle of the tent, where they were filled with fans dancing and disco lights. The anniversary of the girls, dressed in a white robe and Tiara, flew by helicopter on the street. And the evening ended with a fireworks display and the arrival of Ariel’s gift from her father: a brand-new BMW 325i.

As a spectator told Ariel father was a successful oilman. “I love oil. Petroleum say, footwear and cars and wallets,” called Mr. Sharon to the camera, as she and her father, points of drilling for oil in the muddy hill near their house in Campbellsville, Ky. When her father, an employee of one of the sites and tells viewers, it produces 120 barrels a day, Mr. Sharon asked: “How many Louis Vuitton is this?” His father, the answer was: “a lot”.

The spectacle of young audiences Rule draws, but this episode shows, in February 2007, the attention of a different demographic: the public authorities.

Ariel’s father was Mr. Gary Milby, a man regulators say now, beschwindelnd hundreds of investors throughout the country, millions of dollars in investments in nearly 30 fraudulent Oil and Gas Limited Partnerships with names such as “Black Gold Oil no. 6 “and” Fort Knox Oil No. 8. ”

Last, the Securities and Exchange Commission a complaint accusing Mr. Milby an increase of more than $ 19 million from more than 375 investors over a year and a half, starting in February 2005. At least $ 12 million has been redirected to the off-shore accounts and the family and the confidence of millions of dollars have been invested on Milby’s Mr. Expensive lifestyle, the SEC said in its complaint. Mr. Milby denied all charges against him.

“Le Show, MTV really Milby on the road map,” said Frank Pinto Pane, a fraud investigator with the Louisiana Office of Financial Institutions. “The people have really strengthened with him.”

Today, with oil prices fixed 100 dollars a barrel, investors are encryption system for a show of the last Schwärmer and schemers with artists and seem eager to help. A merger of regulatory authorities state securities, it has been opened 260 investigations of oil and gas, fraud across the country in spring 2007. Updates figures are not available, but the regulatory authorities say the complaints are still in

“I bet on the right, while I am at 20 oil and gas cases I am looking for, which is not listed on the securities and the sale of human beings unlizenzierten that thing,” said Commissioner Colorado Securities, Fred J. Joseph. “One or two years, I do not think I had five cases.”

How do, energy, investment, M. ’s Milby offers are pretty standard. The private placement offerings, it has sold units of the limited liability partnerships managed by the two companies that he owned, Mid-America Energy and Mid-America Oil and Gas, money for Most of the shallow wells in Kentucky. Investors were told that for the monthly checks, as much as $ 4800 for 30 to 50 years, according to the SEC, “said Milby boasted of some investors that “nobody has invested with me has lost money.”

Meet Angel, a girl of 17 years old, lives in Bellevue. It looks like a normal teenage culture of fun. She loves movies with friends and go on a bicycle. But most do not know, the long road to recovery, she has travelled in the past year and a half.

Angel was 15 when same as the Campbell County Drug Court of Justice. At that time, she became increasingly distressed and drugs, she said.

It was when she was with drug abuse outpatient program NorthKey Community Care, said Mary Pat Behler, director of NorthKey and a defender for a Northern Kentucky-based hospitalizations among young people.

Angel, at the age of 11 was to drugs, was awarded to the nearest stationary young drug Recovery Centre at their home in Bellevue. It was in Louisville, almost two and a half hours away from their friends and family.

“They need the support of friends and family members of the family [the distance] has made it much more difficult,” she said. “I wanted to, they would have been more accurate.”

The cost of the road in both directions on Ten Broeck, in downtown Louisville, was also a major concern for the family.

“Being at Ten Broeck has a hardness of their families by conducting distance and the cost of gas,” said Behler that the fight Angel’s family was there.

Angel was lucky. They are with him and support to see they had. Many young people caught in the prevention of drug abuse are not as fortunate, do not support and never get the help they need.

That’s why Behler pushing so hard for a center of Northern Kentucky. She migration in the capital in order to become familiar with the State representatives and senators and call for the center. She said before the central and Frankfurt Revenue Committee gave a favourable opinion on appropriations for stationary.

It is also known for the image of financial disaster Frankfort.

“Centers around the community mental health of the state were invited to a decline of 12.5 percent,” said Behler. “Our funding is already flat for 12 years, not even the money to meet the costs of living.”

But thanks in large part to Senator Jack Westwood, “she says, a little money for the treatment of places is cneter is in the Senate version of the budget. Each year, for two years, $ 150000 in the basement of the acquisition and planning.

The Assembly and the Senate have led to compromises on revenue extensions, “said Behler, money to stay in

“It’s not just about the amount we needed, but if this amount remains in the budget, it is likely that the annual appropriations shall be established within two years.”

According to the Northern Kentucky Residential Treatment Facility Task Force (a joint effort of the Agency to NKY Substance Abuse Policy Board, the Council NKY Regional Planning and Youth Collaborative NKY Substance Abuse Treatment) December business plan, the next residential services The community of Kentucky’s Mental Health centres are two hours away by car from Florence. Another possibility is more than two hours away, and one third of them were almost three hours and a half-hour drive.

“Such an institution exists in our region. As a result of our youth must leave Lexington, Louisville, or continue treatment,” said Behler, private hospitals treat acknowledged, but at a cost, outside of the scope of the hand to families whose insurance - not extend to those who do not care or health insurance and are not eligible for Medicaid.
