We will be holding an emergency blood drive at our Long & Foster office on August 28th from 2:30-7:00 pm. The address is 9171 Baltimore National Pike Ellicott City, MD 21042. You can schedule your life saving appointment by calling 1-800-give-life (1-800-448-3543). You can also register online at https://www.membersforlife.org/rccm/mobilesch/request.php?did=215306.
The following blood types are below a level which is considered to be safe. If your blood type appears here, please consider donating at our emergency blood drive. All blood types are important. If your blood type does not appear today, your donation is still badly needed in order to treat local patients who depend on that type. A safe, desired supply is 5-7 days worth of any given blood type, in order to meet local patient need and maintain an adequate reserve in the event of an emergency.
The need is constant...
To compound the low inventory of type O, there was an emergency request last evening for a total of 110 O+ red cells due to a liver transplant at one of our local hospitals. As a result, the American Red Cross currently has enough of that blood type to only last about 8 hours and only a small number of units waiting to be processed. This means that they will continue to cut their routine hospital requests, further reducing their supply. If blood donations do not drastically increase soon, we could face an extremely critical situation at the beginning of next week. If you are eligible to donate, please do.

Thank you in advance for your donation!!

Tomorrow is Monday July 14th 2008. There is not much going on but in France they will be celebrating Bastille Day.
On July 14, 1789, an outraged group of Parisians stormed the Bastille, a fortress and prison in France where prisoners of influence were held, in hopes of capturing ammunition.
Shortly thereafter, King Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette took refuge in Versailles as the violent peasants pillaged and burned châteaux, and destroyed records of feudal dues; this reaction is known as the grande peur (great fear).
For the peasant class, the Bastille stood as a symbol of the hypocrisy and corruption of the aristocratic government - controlled mostly by nobility and clergy. This important event marked the entry of the popular class into the French Revolution.
The French recognize Bastille Day as the end of the monarchy and beginning of the modern republic. The lasting significance of the event was in its recognition that power could be held by ordinary citizens, not in the King or in God.
Today, Parisians celebrate this national holiday with a grand military parade up the Champs Elysées, colorful arts festivals, and raucous parties marking the holiday. Uncork a bottle of wine, pop in a Jacques Dutronc CD, and join the celebration!
If it is a little short notice to head to France, the next best thing is to enjoy the festivities at Tersiguels Restaurant in lovely Ellicott City.

The fun starts at 6:30pm. It is a Prix Fixe Menu with 6 delicious courses, Can Can dancers, music, live entertainment. Nowhere will you find such high energy with terrific food on a Monday evening.
