During these tough economic times, in which many families are living paycheck to paycheck, a tax refund represents a much needed influx of cash into the family budget that can help to pay bills or decrease debt. And for these people, the sooner they file, how they file (online or in person), and their knowledge of tax credits can represent a difference of hundreds to sometimes thousands of dollars in their refund. Now in its fifth year,
www.MyFreeTaxes.com will offer free Federal and State tax preparation and filing assistance to individuals and families with combined incomes of $57,000 or less. Eligible consumers can file either online or in person and also receive additional help expanding their knowledge of available tax credits such as the EITC. Leonard Oursler began his service with the IRS in October of 1997. In 2001 Leonard became the Chief of the Congressional Affairs Branch of Legislative Affairs, where he was responsible for coordinating all outreach activity with Congress and all activity on Congressional hearings. Laura Scherleris the Director of Financial Stability at United Way Worldwide. During her nine-year tenure, Laura has led the creation and implementation of several multi-million dollar initiatives designed to increase the financial stability of low and moderate income families.
In 1958, when Chana Wilson was seven, her mother held a rifle to her head and pulled the trigger. The gun jammed and she was taken away to a mental hospital. On her return, Chana became the caretaker of her heavily medicated, suicidal mother. It would be many years before she learned the secret of her mother’s anguish: her love affair with another married woman, and the psychiatric treatment aimed at curing her of her lesbianism.
Riding Fury Home spans forty years of the intense, complex relationship between Chana and her mother—the trauma of their early years together, the transformation and joy they found when they both came out in the 1970s, and the deep bond that grew between them. From the intolerance of the ‘50s to the exhilaration of the women’s movement of the ‘70s and beyond, the book traces the profound ways in which their two lives were impacted by the social landscape of their time. Exquisitely written and devastatingly honest, Riding Fury Home is a shattering account of one family’s struggle against homophobia and mental illness—and a powerful story of healing, forgiveness, and redemption.

For the past forty years, Cheryl Cohen Greene has worked as a surrogate partner, helping clients to confront, consider, and ultimately accept their sexuality. In this riveting memoir, Cohen Greene shares some of her most moving cases, and also reveals her own sexual coming-of-age. Beginning with a rigid Catholic upbringing in the 1950s, where she was taught to think sex and sexual desires were unnatural and wrong, Cohen Greene struggled to reconcile her sexual identity.
An Intimate Life offers a candid look into the personal and professional life of a surrogate partner, examining the cultural and emotional ramifications of pursuing something most people do not immediately understand.
The memoir opens with Cohen Greene's work with Berkeley-based poet and journalist Mark O'Brien, whose essay "On Seeing A Sex Surrogate" was adapted into a major motion picture titled "The Sessions," which was released nationwide in October 2012.
