To qualify for the list, companies must be independent, for-profit, cleantech companies that are not listed on any major stock exchange. “We are proud of how quickly the Global C leantech 100 list has gained recognition as a lead ing resource in the cleantech sector,” said Sheeraz Haji, C leantech G roup CEO. “ Stakeholders including members of the corporate community, investors, and regulators now watch the Global Cleantech 100 list closely to gauge which sec tors look most promising and which companies are poised for growth.” Global Cleantech received 4,274 nom ina tions this year for com panies in more than 45 countries. These companies were weighted and scored to create a short list o f 213 com panies presented to the expert panel for final input. The end result was 100 com panies from 16 countries. The 70-strong ex pert panel is drawn from well-respected organiza tions in cleantech innova tion from around the world, including leading investors in global cleantech and from a wide variety of cor porations across many dif ferent industries, such as BP, Coca-Cola Company, DuPont, GE, General Mo tors, Procter and Gamble, and Vestas. Stroke & osteoporosis screenings in Heppner The Christian Life Center in Heppner will host a Life Line screening on November 16, 2011 at it’s church at 535 West Morgan. Residents in and around Heppner can be screened to reduce their risk of having a stroke or bone fracture. Stroke is the third leading cause of death and a leading cause of perma nent disability, yet 80% of stroke victims had no ap parent warning signs prior to the stroke. According to a statement by Life Line, preventative ultrasound screenings can help people avoid strokes. They also say that screenings are fast, noninvasive, painless, and convenient. Life Line urges all adults to get these screen ings, because they can help avoid potential cardiovas- ; — A Life Line staff member conducts an Abdominal Aortic An eurysm screening. -Contributedphoto cular conditions such as blocked arteries and irregu lar heart rhythm, abdomi nal aortic aneurisms and hardening of the arteries in the legs, which is a strong predictor of heart disease. A bone density screening to assess osteoporosis risk is also offered and is ap- propriate for both men and women. Packages start at $149. All five screenings take 60-90 minutes. For more inform ation or to schedule a screening, call 877-237-1287 or visit www. lifelinescreening.com. Pre registration is required. A View from the Hill By Doris Brosnan Most adults view lying as improper, immoral, unnecessary, unwise, and/ or simply wrong. Lying in variably becomes a topic of discussion for every parent and young child, when the parent tries to convince the child that telling lies is not acceptable.... Correct? Apparently, these are gen erally accepted statements that have a lin gering hold on individuals, as w itnessed at Willow Creek Terrace on Septem ber 17. Taken from their amazing book o f special days, the “Big Whopper Liar’s” observance did not seem to even tempt a single resident. “The bigger the lie, the better” advice did not hold a candle to “Do not tell lies!” advice that harkened back to days of youth. Not a single resident seemed inclined to take a chance on entering the liar’s contest that day. R e s id e n ts a lso passed on a few other sug gested special-day compe titions during the past few weeks, but they did not turn their backs on the miniature g o lf course arranged in the commons area. They and many of their visitors enjoyed the course several times, but not competitive ly, except in trying to beat their previous scores. R e s id e n ts a lso enjoyed listening to and w atching the staff on a couple of special calendar days, while declining to join them in “talking like a pirate” and chewing gum to pay tribute on September 30 to that ubiquitous oral prop. Competition is not part of many of the special observances at the Terrace, however. Residents and staff most often simply wel come knowing about the special days on the calendar and benefiting from related activities. On October 5, Apple Betty Day was on the calendar of special events, so the day’s dessert was a given. Angel Food Cake Day was observed on the 10th in a similar fashion, and N ational Chocolate Cupcake Day was equally welcomed on October 18. D iscussions and debates rem ain favorite benefits o f these national days of observation, also. Some residents at the Ter race were willing, on Oc tober 2’s Guardian Angel Day, to tell one another about their guardian an gels, and a few, during the National Pet Peeve Week of October 9-15, were not hesitant to vocalize about those wee things that run them nuts! A list of “Pet Peeves” continues to be compiled when a new one is remembered. But that week of grousing was sandwiched in between conversations on World Smile Day on the 7lh and Evaluate-Your- Life Day on the 19*h, both o f which accentuated the positive: feelings prompted by smiles and individuals' accomplishm ents, proud moments and strange oc currences. Other positives will surely create an uplifting at mosphere at the Terrace as October progresses. Mabel Heath will celebrate her 90lh birthday with her friends and neighbors on the 25th, definitely a day for posi tive thoughts. And residents will be invited to Make-a- Difference on the 22nd and to think long and hard on Annual Forgiveness Day, October 29. What the dis cussions will be on the 23rd is anyone’s guess, since that will be National Mother-in- Law Day, but October 31 is sure to be a positive for everyone because that is Monster Monday, the day of the Halloween Party with the preschoolers. On O ctober 31, lunch will also be a special event, for it will be the Anni versary Lunch for Dick and Virginia Wilkinson. Friends might want to come by to wish them well and even try to find out their secret to such a successful union. The continuing longevity of their marriage is viewed by the Willow Creek Terrace community as an especially worthwhile reason to toast the couple and think about the many positives in every one’s life. And residents and staff are positively eager to welcome a new neighbor to their abodes on the Hill. One apartment is now avail able, so anyone who views this as an opportunity not to be missed should call 541-676-0004 or come by the Terrace to inquire. Drivers safety program free for vets The AARP Drivers Safety Program is offering a drivers safety class No vember 10 at St. Patrick’s Senior Center from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. T he d e f e n s i v e course is open to all ages.
