Randy Romberg tells us there is hope for many of us to hear better!!!
|
|
He related to us that according to several major studies, older
adults with hearing loss are more likely to develop Alzheimer's
disease and dementia, compared to those with normal hearing.
Further, the risk escalates as a person's hearing loss grows worse.
Those with mild hearing impairment are nearly twice as likely to
develop dementia compared to those with normal hearing. The
risk increases three-fold for those with moderate hearing loss,
and five-fold for those with severe impairment.
All-in-all a very interesting presentation.
We might do well to get a free hearing test at his Zounds® Hearing
Center in Seal Beach.

What a great and engaging meeting this was with Gary Richmond.
|
|
Our speaker tonight was Gary Richmond. He served as first veterinary
assistant and zookeeper at the Los Angeles Zoo for seven years.
He is a best selling author and publisher of 22 books including
"A View From The Zoo".
We joined this zookeeper-turned-storyteller as he recalled a couple of
encounters that taught him so much about animals, people, and
the earth we share.
Here is a part of one:
Bringing a giraffe into the world is a tall order. A baby giraffe falls
10 feet from its mother's womb and usually lands on its back.
Within seconds it rolls over and tucks its legs under its body.
From this position it considers the world for the first time and
shakes off the last vestiges of the birthing fluid from its eyes and
ears. Then the mother giraffe rudely introduces its offspring to the
reality of life.
The mother giraffe lowers her head long enough to take a quick look.
Then she positions herself directly over her calf. She waits for about
a minute, and then she does the most unreasonable thing. She
swings her long, pendulous leg (that can shatter a lion's head)
outward and kicks her baby, so that it is sent sprawling head over
heels. When it doesn't get up, the violent process is repeated over
and over again. The struggle to rise is momentous. As the baby
calf grows tired, the mother kicks it again to stimulate its efforts.
Finally, the calf stands for the first time on its wobbly legs.
Then the mother giraffe does the most remarkable thing. She
kicks it off its feet again. Why? She wants it to remember how
it got up. In the wild, baby giraffes must be able to get up as
quickly as possible to stay with the herd, where there is safety.
Lions, hyenas, leopards, and wild hunting dogs all enjoy young
giraffes, and they'd get it too, if the mother didn't teach her calf
to get up quickly and get with it.
A trip to the zoo was one we were glad to have taken with Gary tonight!

It was Rotary Club of Bellflower & Vision To Learn
Together Again Giving Kids a Chance to Succeed!
|
|
Friday Morning November 15th we met at Ramona Elementary
School (the 2nd highest on the Title 1 list) to pre-screen the
grades not done earlier by the school nurse.
Amazing job by the Rotary Club of Bellflower! Boy do you all know how to get down to
business.
Thank you all that were able to help at Ramona - we had a great time and finished over
2 hours earlier than expected! The school staff at Ramona kept the classes coming at
a good pace. We also were able to screen the kids that were absent from the
school/state mandated screenings! What a huge help for the school nurse!
Numbers:
Screened: 389 Students
Passed: 297
Failed: 92
55 students currently have glasses (56 if you count the child that had 'fake' glasses).
Some notes from the day:
One student in 4th grade never had glasses and looked to be +2.25 in both eyes
(a higher RX than my own).
There was a kidder we screened that was +2.5 in one eye and +2.75 in the other!
A second grader was -3 in both eyes and never had glasses!
There were a number of kids that had glasses that had a VERY high RX and should
be seen by an eye doctor at least every year not to mention to have a back up pair of
glasses!
I have passed the results on to Vision To Learn along with the contact name/number
for the School to get the school on the calendar. The hope is that Vision To Learn will
be able to get the kids examined before the holiday break and get their glasses right
after the break!
Rotary and Vision To Learn - together giving kids a chance to succeed!

Each student was provided a $100 gift card funded by the Bellflower Rotary Foundation.
They were guided to pick their own cloths, shoes, & school appropriate supplies.
We were joined by Interactors from Valley Christian High School.
We are inspired by great kids striving to be the best they can and thankful for a little help.
This was our eleventh year with plenty of joy and warmth to carry forward.

Our first breakfast meeting speaker was Rosa Gutierrez from Hub International.
|
|
Our Meeting times have changed. The first Thursday of every month is a Breakfast Meeting. We meet at Rosewood's at 7:30 AM. The last Thursday of every month is a Dinner Meeting. We meet at Rosewood's at 6:00 PM. The other meetings are Thursday Lunch Meetings as before.
Today Rosa Gutierrez, who is an Account Executive for Hub International, spoke to us on the "Affordable Care Act". She spoke about reporting responsibilities of individuals and employers. Then a bit about penalties for not reporting. Finally getting to what is and what is not covered. Her hand outs were concise and informative.
Our Golf Tournament is next weekend so see you all there. We got as many shirt orders in as possible by Wednesday night so the order was placed. We should have them by the tournament anyway.
Joint Meeting with Paramount next Tuesday at their location. Should be a great meeting with JPL and props.
I know everyone who can will help at Kmart on the 19th for Back To School Shopping!

We had two visitors and possibly prospective Rotarians come to our meeting today.
Tracy Mc Sparren from the Bellflower Unified School District and Jennifer Beech
from Berkshire Hathaway.
|
|
Both ladies introduced themselves to our club. We tried to share information about our Club, District, and Rotary International in the short time we had. They are long time residents of the area and family oriented.
We honored Dr. Roger Rabanera with A four Sapphire Paul Harris Pin signifying his 4th level commitment to the Foundation.
Mike Lundgren chose to spin the wheel for his happy marriage anniversary donation. Turned out to be $96.00.
Linda Nesst picked the Queen of Hearts to win $725.00. So it's back to fifty-two cards in our game.
Ken Chong from LA5 is our speaker next week. He is a brilliant speaker who will speak on member recruitment and retention with emphasis on millennials (born 1980-94).

The Paramount and Bellflower Rotary Clubs met at Paramount for a joint meeting today.
|
Club President, Dean Mouren-Laurens welcomed us. He spoke of the definition of Rotary. Cubs bring together dedicated individuals to exchange ideas, build relationships, and make positive impacts. With the help of our Greater LA District, Rotary International, and The Rotary Foundation we work to make lasting improvements in our communities and around the world.
Jean Seruntine from the Bellflower Club lead us in song.
This week’s speaker was to be from JPL, however due to a scheduling conflict forced them to reschedule. George Josephs of the Paramount Club gave a craft talk on his experiences as a F4 Phantom Fighter Pilot.
George began by showing a picture of the F4 Phantom and explaining that it is still used as the standard jet fighter in many parts of the world. It was originally designed to intercept anything trying to attack an aircraft carrier from the air. It was found to be pretty good in “dog fighting” and had the capabilities to drop bombs. Therefore the Phantom became the go to jet for Air to Ground, Air to Air as well as Intercept.
George explained that “dog fighting” has not changed since World War I. This type of fighting relies on speed and maintaining speed during cornering which is hard to do in a Phantom but is crucial because once a jet loses speed they are a perfect target for the opponent.
The Phantom’s cornering velocity is at 420 knots which is a very quick and very tight turn. At this speed with the after burners on, you are burning a lot of fuel and G-force is high. As a pilot, the way you learn the speed of your machine is by sound and feel. The sound of the wind going over the cockpit glass is an indicator of speed as well as how the stick feels in your hand. The faster the jet flies the easier it is to maneuver. The stick actually is loser the faster it goes so a pilot will steer with just their fingertips.
The problem Phantoms had in “dog fights” is that the tighter the turn the more it bleeds speed (slows down and loses fuel). Thus the Russian Migs have an advantage over the Phantoms because of their turning capabilities. So the Phantoms key factor in “dog fight” engagement was if by 90⁰ of a turn, if you have not killed anyone get out with a pitch back.
Lastly, due to increased throttle needed during combat that kicked in the afterburners,
“Flame Out” (run out of gas) was common during some of the tight air to air combats.
George did a great job “flying by the seat of his pants” to step in at the last minute.
Announcements:
Nigeria has had no cases of Polio for one year!

Well, today was the day, 103 smiling, laughing, ecstatic, wonderful kids got their much needed glasses.
|
|
They can now perform better in school and in other aspects of their life thanks to Rotary Club of Bellflower bringing Vision to Learn to Bellflower.
This journey started last year when I saw a need at a Caring Connections Meeting. Several eye exams and glasses were offered by another service organization if any counselors needed them. All of the counselors raised their hands. I stayed after and talked to them. It turns out that the seven title one schools in Bellflower have a great need for eye care.
Upon exploring the problem further, I found that Rotary has a program called Vision to Learn. We explored this and found out that they could bring their service to our city if we could raise the funds. We picked the largest Title One School (Washington Elementary), did the pre-screening, had 140 kids for Vision to Learn to screen. They found 103 kids in need of glasses.
One girl exclaimed, "I can see, I can see!" Another said, "Now my eyes won't hurt."
What a wonderful journey it has been. Just a start though, with the communities help, we hope to continue with the other Title 1 schools in Bellflower.

District 5280's Chief of Staff - Melody St. Johns came to induct our two new members today.
|

Melody is the spark plug of our District. That's not surprising since she was the Social Chair all four years in her Sorority at ASU. She is famous for her love of Salad Dressing Shots (you had to be there).
Today Melody inducted Insurance Professional, Linda Nesst and Bookkeeping Professional, Didi Davis into our club. These two dedicated women will make Rotary very proud.
Thank you to our many guests present today.
Jon Matson brought six of Our Scholarship Students to tell us where they will be going and what their field of studies will be. We presented them with checks to the institutions they have chosen. It's a wonderful thing we do in this area to promote the future of this Great Country!

We had a great time at District Conference this past week. Strawberries were a success again at Hospitality Night. This year they were joined with some "Light Up Rotary" Decorations.
Rotary International and District 5280 awarded us a 2014-15 VIBRANT Club Award.
This week, one of our two soon to be new members Linda Nesst, allowed us to share an interesting brief walk up her road in life.
|
|
Linda told us how she was born in Sheboygan (Bratwurst Capital of the World), Wisconsin on Lake Michigan.
  Her Great Grandfather is credited with inventing the Ice Cream Sunday in 1881. He owned an Ice Cream Parlor. One day he was asked to top a scoop of ice cream with chocolate sauce (only used to make chocolate sodas). He only offered the concoction on Sunday, i.e. Ice Cream Sunday. She saw the effects of Polio first hand when two girls in the grade above her came down with the dread decease. She watched as their books, clothing, desks, and anything else they may have come in contact with were burned in the school yard. Linda played many instruments and was Battleship Champion at the local playground. Met Steve Litzinger in the 70's while working at an insurance company in Bellflower. He came in soliciting donations for the Y.M.C.A. Linda and her pups would take a road trip every summer back to Wisconsin to visit her folks. Rest stops and junk food was fine for Linda and sometimes friends. In later years, when Steve went with, it was real food and motels.
Linda's hobbies are needle work, wood working, and reading. She loves animals (dogs) and Green Bay Packers, is a card caring member of the NRA, and is a master SNIPE Hunter.

Today Mike Lundgren brought in three enlightened students that we sent to RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Assembly). What a joy and honor it is to be able to do this for our young and hopefully future leaders. We heard from Alfredo (Freddie) Molina,
then Itzel garcia,
and finally Isamar Fletes.
All great kids moved out of their comfort zones with some new formed skills. They all brought back with them the RYLA four C's: Cooperation, Creativity, Communication, and Compassion. Like all the other kids we have sent before them, never have they experienced anything like the RYLA. They can't wait to try new found tools and experiences in their world.
*After meeting today the Board meet to consider two new members that I proposed. Those being: Linda Nesst and Didi Davis. Both were approved and await the Club's approval May 21, 2015.

Pallavi Ridout from ICANN presided over our joint meeting with the Rotary Club of Lakewood today.
|
|
Today we were joined by our friends from the Rotary Club of Lakewood for a joint meeting. We did some catch up and had a good lunch. Pallavi immersed us in topic of the day, "is the Great Generational Divide Slowing Down Rotary Success?" She walked us through the Generational handed out. It was very interesting. She then talked to us about how to stay relevant. She explained that relevance does not involve compromise. The valves, priorities, and commitment of Rotary should never change. Any organization that is willing to compromise its DNA in order to stay relevant never lasts. We then got a sheet that asked us to list "Three things that are not working in your club" and to list "Three NEW things your club should try." I Emailed those forms to you. I would like them back now PLEASE?!> I should be able to collect 6 ideas per person which I will debrief and present back to the club a meaningful summary. Sound good? Thank You!

More than 140 Bellflower Unified Students Received Free Eye Exams Through The Rotary Club of Bellflower.
|
The Rotary Club of Bellflower saw the need for vision care in our low-income communities and began to address it. With our Partners, Vision to Learn (a nonprofit organization providing vision services to children in low-income communities) and Caring Connections (a nonprofit dedicated to helping meet the needs of children and families in the BUSD), we selected the largest Title 1 school in the Bellflower Unified School District (Washington Elementary). We jointly pre-screened the children. Our Club then donated the money to bring VTL to Bellflower.
During the Week of March 30th, 2015, One of Vision to Learn's Mobil Labs and staff came to Washington. They examined 146 children and prescribed to 103 kids! That is over 100 children whose lives are going to be forever changed!

Couldn't show all the folks we shared Our GREAT "Day of Service"
with at Bel Tooren Villa Convalescent Hospital in Bellflower.
|
Our Day of Service went wonderfully at Bel Tooren. We bought oils, puzzle books & pens, lap blankets, luminaries, nonslip socks, cologne & perfume, yes...even a Cowboy Hat, used as prizes and gifts for about twenty folks. We played games, talked, and listened. Their Care Nurse, Edna said they never had so much fun or had prizes given at game time before. It finally came time for them to go. We gave them gifts they could use and said so-long for now. I can't express the joy we had giving of ourselves to others today. We will be back to fulfill some special requests and get to know these folks even better.

Today was our Joint Meeting with the Rotary Club of Lakewood.
Pallavi Ridout led our program.
|
|
We had many honored guests with us today. Linda Zastrow with her niece Billie Jean, President Valarie Frost with many members from the Rotary Club of Lakewood, and Pallavi Ridout.
We presented Linda with a Plaque to Memorialize the $1000.00 Perpetual Scholarship Fund we set up in Bill Zastrow's name. What a great Rotarian with almost forty-seven years of perfect attendance. We will miss him dearly.
Pallavi Ridout engaged us in a program entitled: "Is the Great Generational Divide Slowing Down Rotary Success?" Pallavi gave us nuggets about genders and generations while pointing out what it looks like to get stuck in the past. She then asked us to step out of our "boundaries boxes" and come up with new ideas our club should try. I am tasked with scanning them into the computer and getting them out to both Her and Valarie. We will debrief them and discuss the results with our clubs.

Vocational Service Director Dave Romberg looks on as our
Art Contestant Jordan Jennings displays his photo art.

Jordan and our other Art Contestant Jazmin Goodinez(who could not be present today) are both from Bellflower High School. We had four Speech Contestants: Elaine Yau from Bellflower High School, Sydney Herman, Rosa Chavez, and Eduardo Torres, all from Mayfair High School. Lyn Thompson, Mike Herman, Teri Smith, and Letonia Jennings were here with the students.
The Art Contest was close between Jordan's Thought Provoking Picture and Jazmin's Beautiful Collage. In the end it was Jordan who won the $250.00 and a trip to compete at the district.
Speech was very difficult to judge. All four speakers were so different in delivery and content. By the closest of margins it was Elaine Yau that won the $250.00 and her trip to compete at the district.
One of the premier events that link Rotarians with high school students is this Art, Dance, Music, and Speech Contest. This year Loyola Marymount University will be hosting the 5280 District Event.
