SUMMARY:Be the One
DESCRIPTION:DeKalb-area veteran groups are inviting community members to attend an upcoming 2.2-mile awareness walk in September meant to help end veteran suicide and spread information on how to help those in crisis. \n\n\n\nThe Be the One Walk will be from 10 a.m. to noon Sept. 22 at the Northwestern Medicine Health and Wellness Center\, 626 Bethany Road\, DeKalb. \n\n\n\nThe free event hosted by the DeKalb American Legion Post No. 66 and American Legion Auxiliary is planned as part of an ongoing national campaign by the American Legion called Be the One. The campaign seeks to erase the stigma surrounding mental health and wellness and those who ask for help\, specifically for active and nonactive military members and their families. \n\n\n\nSuicide is considered the top issue facing veterans\, according to the National Veteran Suicide Prevention annual report\, which estimates that between 17 and 22 veterans or service members take their lives each day. The veteran suicide rate is more than 50% higher than the suicide rate for nonveteran adults\, according to the American Legion. \n\n\n\nDeKalb’s free Be the One walk is open to all. The event also will have multiple vendors on hand representing a variety of area service and community resources for people to learn more. \n\n\n\nThose not wishing or unable to do the walk are invited to register for other activities during the event. Tai chi\, labyrinth meditation and seated yoga are among the offerings. \n\n\n\nThe DeKalb American Legion also will host a 50/50 drawing during the event and raffle off donations provided by community organizations. The proceeds of the 50/50 will be used for the Legion’s ongoing education and training programs\, which are for anyone in the community\, along with medical professionals\, to better learn how they can serve veterans in need facing mental wellness crises. \n\n\n\nTo register\, visit the Kishwaukee Special Recreation Association’s website\, online registration is open through Sept. 20. You also can register at 9:30 a.m. the day of the event. \n\n\n\nAs another way to symbolize the 22 veterans who die by suicide daily\, 22 rocks have been donated by Blumen Gardens and will be carried by 22 walkers on the course. The rocks will be engraved by Rock Solid Sayings with names of veterans who have died by suicide. \n\n\n\nThere are 10 rocks left to be named as of Friday\, organizer Cindy Hupke said. For those wishing to donate to the cause or to dedicate a rock to a veteran who died by suicide\, call or text 815-540-7364.

Guaranteed to make you laugh\, and maybe pee your pants\, these two dive-in to all things womanhood\, motherhood and friendship. There are new things to talk about and some old things to talk about in new ways like surviving marriage\, fashion\, and the tween-teen years. These two may be older but they are only getting better. Or bitter. Let’s go with better. “Let’s all get together and find a way to laugh at the stuff the usually makes us cry.” This show is rowdy\, raucous and a little bit naughty. Get a group of your lady friends\, or fly solo\, you can even bring your husband (make sure he sits in the front row) and get ready to laugh. #IMOMSOHARD LIVE: LADIES NIGHT! is the night you need and deserve.

SUMMARY:NIU STEAM STEM Café
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss these STEM Cafés this fall! \nSept. 11\, 2024 – Critical Minerals: The Hidden Materials Required for Green Energy \nMany of the technologies we need for green energy – such as advanced batteries and solar panels – are made from materials that exist in incredibly small proportions within the Earth. These critical metals and minerals are difficult to find\, and often we know little about their processes of formation. \nWe’re now facing urgent questions: do we have enough of these critical materials to support a shift to green energy sources in a timely manner? Or do we risk having found an answer to climate change but not being able to implement it in time? \nSpeaker: Mark R. Frank\, Ph.D. Professor and Chair\, NIU Department of Earth\, Atmosphere and Environment \nOct. 9\, 2024 – Supercomputing to Change the Course of American Science \nNov. 6\, 2024 – Artificial Intelligence in Sales and Pricing \nDec. 4\, 2024 – The Fast-Moving World of Electric Vehicles \nFind details and descriptions on the STEM Café webpage.
