DEAR ABBY: I have been working hard to advance in my health care career so I can give my family a decent life. I have worked my way up from poverty, paying my own way, earning my degree through the military and sheer determination. I have reached a point where I would like to enjoy life a little more, but my husband thinks I am being “materialistic.” We fight often over my wardrobe spending. I believe the clothes I wear, mostly nice skirt suits and heels, are part of my job and image. I believe it has helped me to get ahead. I don’t buy overly expensive items, but they aren’t cheap. I wear the things I buy for years and have a $200-a-month budget for what I may need, even though I don’t always spend it.

I think I have earned the right to shop a little, which will ultimately lead to bigger and better things for my family, so why does my husband make me feel so guilty?, CLOTHES MAKE THE WOMAN, DEAR C.M.T.W.: Not knowing your husband, it’s difficult to say, but I’ll throw out a few ideas, Could he be insecure or intimidated by your ballet shoes cross stitch chart / pattern - high quality cross stitch chart / pattern, original art by caroline lord o'donov professional image? Could he be jealous on some level? In what kind of environment was he raised? Was his mother’s “uniform” a housedress?..

“It brought back so many emotions, good and bad,” said Tunisia Benjamin, who lost Derrick Cooper, the father of her young twins, to a shooting in North Richmond in February. “But it felt good to be with people who care and who understand.”. More than 50 people came to Greater New Bethel Apostolic Church on Sunday for a special service honoring the mothers and other loved ones who have lost men to gun violence in North Richmond, a tiny neighborhood that has the highest per capita homicide rate in the Bay Area.

The event was organized by Pastor Sidney Keys, who moved his church into the neighborhood last year and has sought to attract young people and families of those most in need to his congregation, Keys put a sign on the fence in front of his church that reads, “No violence; Know peace.”, “North Richmond really is a forgotten community,” Keys said, “And it’s important to us to bring our ministry out into the streets, to the people and let them know ballet shoes cross stitch chart / pattern - high quality cross stitch chart / pattern, original art by caroline lord o'donov they have support and love here.”..

Sunday’s event comes amid increased awareness of the ongoing public safety crisis in this mostly unincorporated community — a few square blocks are in the city of Richmond’s borders — which has just 3,200 people but has already seen two homicides this year and 19 since 2010. The homicides, which are investigated by the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, are rarely solved, a fact that sheriff’s officials attribute to tight funding and a lack of community cooperation, but that critics say is the result of poor performance by law enforcement.

Several teenagers were also in attendance Sunday, Keys said he uses a white van to go around the neighborhood on Sunday mornings to pick up kids for breakfast and basketball, along with church services, Richmond Councilmember Corky Boozé, who attended the service and spoke for more than 20 minutes, said he was troubled by the lack of public services in the area, noting that garbage dumping in empty lots remains prevalent and that tall weeds and graffiti mar virtually every block, A development of newer homes is divided from the public project housing by a cinderblock ballet shoes cross stitch chart / pattern - high quality cross stitch chart / pattern, original art by caroline lord o'donov wall, Boozé added, calling it a “barricade” and an example of how the community is isolated and neglected..

“This community has always been lost in the eyes of the political arena,” Boozé said. “It’s obvious that nobody cares what happens in North Richmond.”. Keys said Sunday’s service was about emphasizing that community members whose loved ones have been killed will not be forgotten and standing together against violence. The program included a prayer dance performance by 5-year-old Zyon Brown and remarks by Boozé and Mattie Scott, executive director of Sojourner Truth Foster Family Service Agency Inc., and herself the mother of a young man killed by gun violence.

“It’s time we as a people stop the killing and start the healing,” Scott said, After the service, the ballet shoes cross stitch chart / pattern - high quality cross stitch chart / pattern, original art by caroline lord o'donov mothers and other loved ones of the dead gathered for a home-cooked lunch in an adjacent multipurpose room, At least a dozen of the people who sat in the church’s long wooden benches raised their hands when Keys asked if they had lost someone to community violence, “It feels very good to not be forgotten,” said Lynn Hamilton, who had two stepsons die due to violence in North Richmond, Marquis Hamilton, 20, was gunned down in front of a store blocks away from the church in 2011; Nelson Earl Hamilton III, 23, was killed in North Richmond on March 8..
