the Mask of Warka, the “Mona Lisa of Mesopotamia;” and the treasure of Nimrud, a col-lection of more than 1,000 pieces of gold jewelry from the eighth and ninth centuries BCE.

In the wake of the looting, the United States dispatched a highly specialized multi-agencytask force, led by Colonel Bogdanos, to determine what had happened at the museumand to recover as many antiquities as possible.

Through more than 100 photographs, Colonel Bogdanos explores the theft and lootingat the Iraq Museum. He recounts the story of the U.S. government’s multi-agency task force,the first ever deployed to a war zone (in the frozen hills of Afghanistan), and that team’srecovery of more than 6,000 priceless antiquities from eight countries since then.

The investigation also exposed the presence of an international black-market antiquitiestrade, and Colonel Bogdanos addresses the future of national and international efforts tostop the smugglers.

Matthew Bogdanos has been an Assistant District Attorneyin Manhattan since 1988. A colonel in the Marine Reserves,middleweight boxer, and native New Yorker, he holds adegree in Classics from Bucknell University, a law degreeand a master’s degree in Classical Studies from ColumbiaUniversity, and a master’s degree in Strategic Studies fromthe Army War College. Recalled to active duty after Septem-ber 11, 2001, he received a Bronze Star for counterterroristoperations in Afghanistan, and then served multiple toursin Iraq. Returned from Afghanistan in December 2009, hecontinues the hunt for stolen antiquities.

The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeologyand Anthropology is dedicated to the study and under-standing of human history and diversity.

Nearly 24 million Americans are livingwith diabetes today. Diabetes develops

when insulin – a hormone that helps glucosefrom digested food nourish cells in the body– is in short supply or is not functioningproperly. In diabetics, unused glucose buildsup in the blood stream to higher than normallevels.

Diabetes is increasingly widespread. Whileroughly 10% of the population over the ageof 20 has the disease, another 57 millionpeople are thought to be pre-diabetic. Mostcases are diagnosed in people over the ageof 45, but diabetes can occur at any age.

Type 1 (juvenile-onset) diabetes usuallystrikes in children and young adults. Itdevelops when the body’s immune systemdestroys the cells in the pancreas that makeinsulin.

Type 2 (adult-onset) diabetes accountsfor 90% to 95% of diagnosed cases of dia-betes. The body becomes resistant to the effects of insulin,forcing the pancreas to produce more to keep glucose lev-els normal. When the demand for insulin becomes toogreat, diabetes develops.

Some pregnant women will develop gestational diabetes,in which the hormones of the placenta limit the effective-ness of insulin. This form of diabetes occurs in 2% to 5% ofpregnant women and usually subsides after delivery. How-ever, gestational diabetes increases the risk of type 2 dia-betes later in life.

Diabetes can lead to severedamage to the liver, nervesand blood vessels; blindness;amputation; birth defects or

stillbirth; and thyroid problems. You are ata higher risk for the disease if you areblack, Hispanic, Native American, AsianAmerican, Pacific Islander, overweight, orphysically inactive, or have a family or per-sonal history of diabetes, high blood pres-sure, low HDL (“good”) cholesterol levels,high triglyceride levels, previous abnormalglucose screening results, polycystic ovarysyndrome, given birth to a baby weighingmore than nine pounds, or a history of ges-tational diabetes. If you have these risk fac-tors or experience increased thirst or uri-nation, constant hunger, blurred vision, ex-treme fatigue, recurrent infections, or soresthat are slow to heal, talk to your doctor.

Women over age 45 should be tested fordiabetes every three years, but earlier ormore frequent testing may be needed inwomen at high risk. If you have diabetes,talk to your doctor about how to keep it

well-controlled. Type 1 diabetics use insulin shots to regu-late blood glucose levels. Type 2 diabetes can be managedthrough diet and exercise in some cases, but insulin shotsor medications that lower blood glucose levels may also benecessary.

Healthy lifestyle choices can also lower your risk of dia-betes. Try to reach and maintain a healthy weight, eat adiet of healthy and low-fat foods, and get regular exercise.

W O M E N ’ S H E A L T H – Are You at Risk for Diabetes?By Gerald F. Joseph, Jr, MD, President, The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

According to the AmericanCancer Society, in 2008 an

estimated 35,000 Americanswere diagnosed with cancers ofthe head and neck – which in-cludes cancers of the oral cavity,larynx and pharynx – and about7,600 died from the disease.

Screening is important be-cause early detection is key topreventing the disease from pro-gressing and spreading. TheKimmel Cancer Center at Jeffer-son and the Department ofOtolaryngology – Head and NeckSurgery at Thomas JeffersonUniversity Hospital is offeringfree oral cancer screenings andeducation sessions to interestedpatients age 18 and up.

Common warning signs of oralcancer are: change in voice orhoarseness that lasts more thantwo week; sore throat that doesnot subside; pain or swelling in themouth that does not subside; anddifficulty speaking or swallowing.

The most effective preventionstrategy continues to be the ces-sation of behaviors such assmoking, use of tobacco andexcessive alcohol consumption.More than 85 percent of headand neck cancers are related totobacco use, while others maybe related to viruses such ashuman papilloma virus (HPV.)

The screenings will be held onWednesday, April 14 from 12p.m. until 4 p.m. at the Depart-ment of Otolaryngology – Headand Neck Surgery, 925 Chest-nut Street, 7th floor, Phila., PA19107. To register for the event,call 1-800-JEFF-NOW.

You’ve never met a man like Warren Sawyer. He is aremarkable volunteer, not only for Associated Services

for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ASB), but also for thecountless other organizations to which he donates his time.From rebuilding houses and painting schools to distribut-ing livestock to suffering communities with the mission tomake them self-sustaining, Warren is a true champion of theunderserved and has volunteered for organizations here inthe United States and others all around the world.

Warren was honored as one of ten finalists at the Philadel-phia Eagles Community Quarterback Awards on December15, 2009 held at the Nova Care Center in Philadelphia. ThePhiladelphia Eagles Community Quarterback Award honorsindividuals who exemplify leadership, dedication, and acommitment to improving the communities in which theylive through volunteerism. Chosen because of his inspiring,life long dedication to volunteerism, and a commitment toimproving his community, he received fourth place and aprize of $4,000 from the Philadelphia Eagles and TEVAPharmaceuticals which was donated to ASB.

“Warren’s service to ASB and other organizations is phe-nominal,” said Patricia C. Johnson, ASB President and CEO.“This is a man who spends his life serving the less fortu-nate and discovering new ways to give back when it’s need-ed. His contributions to society both in the United Statesand across the world are vast and it’s wonderful to knowthat one person really can make a difference. I’m honoredto know Warren and thankful for his ongoing commitmentto ASB.”

Born a Quaker, Warren’s entire life is based on helpingothers and is truly a champion to those who are under-served.

From 1942 to 1946 Warren volunteered at PhiladelphiaState Hospital at Byberry. From cleaning floors and main-taining the gardens to settling patient fights and makingsure they were as comfortable as possible (under thosehorrible conditions), Warren helped provide and improvethe treatment and service to hundreds of patients in thewards. He spoke with hospital management and broughtawareness to the harmful treatment of patients by paid em-ployees. The hospital’s deplorable conditions were due tosevere overcrowding, having been built for 3,000 patients,

but housed 6,100. While volunteering at

Byberry, Warren volunteeredto be a test subject for YellowJaundice research. Thank-fully, he never contracted thedisease, but his desire tohelp saved thousands, if nothundreds of thousands, oflives. During this time, healso volunteered in a settle-ment house in South Phila-delphia to help with the ris-ing problem of juvenile de-linquency, and also at FriendsHospital, a private psychiatrichospital, at night. Warrenapproached his volunteeringas a way to share informa-tion with those who neededit and improve the qualityof life of those he helped.

In 1949, Warren volunteer-ed to go to Poland for the“seagoing cowboy” projectwhere he helped deliver ap-proximately 800 horses tothe people of Gdansk, Poland.The “seagoing cowboy” ser-vice was organized by theBrethren Service, in conjunc-tion with UNRAA (UnitedNations Relief and Rehabili-tation Act Agency). Thepromise of the project wasthat the first born foal ofthe horse would be given toa neighbor who didn’t haveone to continue the service.The project ensures that thegift of each animal will even-tually help an entire com-munity become self-sustain-ing. The heifer project grewout of this, which Warrenvolunteered to help with in1997 when he went to Viet-

nam and Cambodia and helped distribute calves with thesame stipulation.

Warren’s volunteer service didn’t stop there! He joinedthe NAACP in 1957 when he moved to Kentucky. Warren isa strong believer in equality, justice, and fairness for all.He volunteered to help with the integration of restaurantsin Lexington, KY. He carried a sandwich board encourag-ing patrons (Caucasians and minorities alike) to integratethe 5 and 10 lunch counters in Lexington as part of anationwide movement.

Warren began volunteering at ASB in 1981 as a reader forthe Radio Information Center for the Blind (RICB). He learn-ed about ASB from his late wife, Ruth, a volunteer who re-corded books on tape. After she died, Warren wanted tocontinue her legacy of reading and service for the benefitof the blind community. For over 28 years Warren readthe Philadelphia Inquirer over the airwaves to individualswho used RICB’s services until April 2009 when RICB sign-ed off the air. Warren’s commitment to ASB did not waver.He approached ASB’s Volunteer Coordinator and asked herto “put me anywhere, I’ll do whatever you need.” At 89years young, Warren is actively collating braille pages inASB’s Braille Division and copyholding with braille proof-readers who are blind on Wednesday mornings.

More recently and locally, Warren volunteered at theBurlington County Prison for 7 years during the 1990’s. Involunteering, he held workshops to promote the reductionof violence in prison, and helped prisoners improve theirown attitudes towards violence through role playing sce-narios. Prisoners who demonstrated possible leadershiproles and interest were trained in the alternative to violenceprogram. His work inspired prisoners to assist in runningfuture workshops – paying it forward.

In the 1990’s Warren also helped rebuild foundations ofhomes in Mississippi and helped build a house in Arizonafor a Native American village.

Although Warren has accomplished a great amount ofvolunteer service throughout his life, at 89 years young, hecontinues to volunteer to this day. In addition to his vol-unteer service at ASB, Warren also transports food andclothing to a church in Camden, NJ; volunteers for theTender Care/Care Givers, located in South Jersey, in whichhe drives seniors to doctors’ appointments, shopping, etc.;and on Wednesday afternoons, is a volunteer at the QuakerMeeting House at 4th and Arch in Philadelphia.

Though humble about his volunteer work, Warren inspirespeople he meets purely with his enthusiasm and passionfor a cause. Warren’s never ending supply of compassion,tolerance, and determination changed the lives of those he’smet, those he’s helped, and those he still intends to reach.

CITY LINE OPTICAL

By Bridget Nurock, MSS, LCSW

Many of us are squeezed between our own spouses,partners, kids, jobs and ever expanding needs of aging

parents. Often it seems there aren’t enough hours in a dayto meet the many needs of their changing lives, while wejuggle our many responsibilities and the numerous roleswe play. We may find ourselves feeling stressed, sad, angry,guilty, depressed, overwhelmed, while our other relation-ships suffer.

Among the many challenges is the difficulty of keepingsome kind of healthy, honest communication with parentswho view themselves as “independent” while relying moreand more on us. Sometimes it seems that “independent”just means unpaid help. In addition, the economic down-turn has affected more aged parents’ ability to sell their

homes and move into lifestyle communities offering moresafeguards and needed caregiving services.

Today’s “aging parent” is very different from our grand-parents or the parent that we observed our parents care-giving, as they aged. Today’s elders (not “seniors,” if youplease) are accustomed to being more active, more inde-pendent, more “tuned in” to world events and ideas, morein touch with concepts that are outside themselves andthe home/family, more in touch/tune on health issues—and for a longer duration of years than our grandparents.So how are we, “The Sandwich Generation” expected to“know” how to attend to their needs while keeping in stepwith our needs and those of our family? We really are, inessence, starting from scratch, since role-modeling our ownparents is now oftentimes, ineffective with our modernlifestyles and times.

Many of us can benefit from guidelines on how to changeour perceptions and behaviors so that our life is simplified.Learning how to respond, not react; deciding what is andis not considered a real “crisis”; practicing effective timemanagement skills; learning practical ideas for “on the spot,instant” stress management; are all ideas that will beaddressed in a workshop for adult children that will beoffered by Carole Landis, MSS, LCSW and myself, on fourconsecutive Wednesday evenings in April in Haverford, PA.This hands-on skills workshop is sponsored by AccessibleHome Health Care of Montco.

Although as caregivers, you may already feel pressed forextra time in your schedule, this workshop is worth theinvestment of two hours a week for the month of April.Attending this workshop can increase your sense of con-trol over your life, cut down your daily stress level, andoffer you an alternative way of communicating more satis-factorily with the folks you love.

Landis and Nurock, two clinicians experienced in work-ing with elders and their families, will offer practical realis-tic solutions to cope with the demands of aging parents.Their goal is for you to have a more healthy and positiverelationship with your aging parent(s). For information,contact: Carole Landis, at610-649-9964, or email [email protected].

The Nelly Ber-

man School

of Music (NBS)

will hold a mem-

orial concert in

memory of gifted

violin student,

Chanlan Lee, on

January 23, 2009

at 7 p.m. Chanlan

Lee, age 8, pass-

ed away on Dec-

ember 19 due to

a severe case of

viral encephali-

tis. He was the

youngest schol-

arship student

at the Nelly Ber-

man School of

Music and quite

an accomplished

violinist for his

young age.

Chanlan had a

deep passion for

music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved

in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and

intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he

was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage

at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden

Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was

also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-

ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

tive to raise funds, over $300 to be exact, by playing in his

parents’ restaurant in the Chinatown section of Philadelphia.

The January 23 concert will be held at Centennial Hall at

The Haverford School, 450 Lancaster Avenue, Haverford,

from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. The event, showcasing students and

professional musicians, will commemorate Chanlan’s love

and passion for music and life. A donation of $15 per adu

and $10 per child is suggested. All proceeds will benefi

the Chanlan Lee Scholarship Program, which will provid

a scholarship to a gifted violin student, from around th

ion with adequate lessons to foster their talent.
