Salem News receives award from providers of human services

Anonymous The Salem News Tue Nov 03, 2009, 12:10 AM EST

A statewide association of human service providers awarded The Salem News a Media Award of Excellence during its 34th annual Convention and Expo in Boston last week.

The award recognized The Salem News for its work to highlight issues important to the families of people living with developmental disabilities.

The paper was nominated by North Shore Arc, a member of the Massachusetts Council of Human Service Providers (Providers' Council).

Hundreds attended the ceremony, during which 10 individuals, the Pine Street Inn, and two businesses were recognized with Awards of Excellence.

Other award recipients included Speaker of the House Robert DeLeo and Sen. Steven Panagiotakos.

The Providers' Council is the largest statewide membership association for community-based organizations providing social, rehabilitation, education and health care services.

Salem News staff writers Stacie N. Galang and Amanda McGregor attended the ceremony, held at the Marriott Copley Place in Boston on Thursday.

Gov. Deval Patrick spoke, as did Secretary of Health and Human Services JudyAnn Bigby.

Loose harness can trigger Escape sensor

Q: I have a 2008 Ford Escape, and I am having an issue with my ABS and traction control. When I first start the vehicle, the ABS light and traction control lights are off, but moments after I start driving or once I take a left turn, the car starts to stutter, the ABS and traction control light both start blinking, but shut off as soon as I straighten out the car and it runs perfect again. (This does not happen taking a right turn.) Minutes later, after I drive a mile or longer, both the ABS and traction control light will turn on and stay on as long as the car is running. I can take left turns with no problems; almost like there's no problem with the car at all. Any thoughts as to what this could be? It all started when I was pulling a small utility trailer with nothing on it.
