Finding Frank
A chance encounter; an unusual request; two lives inexorably transformed. When self-absorbed Brooke Blake uncharacteristically sheds her narcissistic armor, she discovers that the hand we lend may pave the way to our own redemption. Finding Frank is a perplexing hall of mirrors where every image reflects agonizing - though liberating - secrets. Frank was a Silver Orphan, one of 11 million seniors in the U.S. who live alone. Most still have family members, but about 15 percent of seniors who need care have no family support. By 2030, the number of people over age 65 will soar to 71.5 million - one in every five Americans. Yet, over half of America's communities have not initiated preparation to deal with the aging population. Unless this situation is addressed, we will soon be engulfed in a tidal wave of Silver Orphans.
Silver Orphan
An endearing tale of unlikely friendship and compassion between two diametrically opposed individuals - a vibrant young woman and an elderly frail man - Silver Orphan illustrates that giving of yourself reaps untold benefits. The subject matter covered in Silver Orphan is disturbing from a collective point of view. How we treat our elders, how we discard them - both in life and death - mirrors how we fare as a society. The old will soon outnumber the young - a chilling prospect treated with compassion in Silver Orphan. Interwoven in the stark reality of our superficial ethos is a story of love, redemption, and compassion. Silver Orphan should be included in ethics class curricula nationwide. A chance encounter; an unusual request; two lives inexorably transformed. When self-absorbed Brooke Blake uncharacteristically sheds her narcissistic armor, she discovers that the hand we lend may pave the way to our own redemption. Silver Orphan is a perplexing hall of mirrors where every image reflects agonizing - though liberating - secrets.

So forget the endless column inches on economic downturn, this is the real news and it tells you more about life on earth than you'd ever wish to know.

The Architecture of Kuwabara, Payne, McKenna, Blumberg
Kuwabara Payne McKenna Blumberg Architects, founded in 1987 in Toronto, has risen to become one of the most prominent architectural offices in Canada, where they have realised numerous projects including the Kitchener City Hall (1990), Queen's University Library in Kingston, Kanada (1992-1995) and the Hilton Hotel Toronto (2000).
