Father Maurice Chase used a special way to celebrate his 90th birthday．The Catholic priest took $ 15,000 in cash to Los Angeles’ gutter and gave it away．Twenty wheelchair–bound people received $100 bills, while the rest received $1to $ 3 each．

“I come out here to tell them that God loves them and I love them and that someone is concerned about them,” Chase said．

Chase has given away cash and blessings every Sunday at the same corner for 24 years．Several hundred people wait for him every week．

He makes a point of coming on Thanksgiving and Christmas, too, but this is the first year he spent his birthday in the downtown neighborhood where people live mainly in shelters and on dirty sidewalks．

“It’s the place that makes me the happiest．I just love it,” said Chase．“I look forward to coming here．”

The money comes from donations he receives from rich and famous people he met during his work as assistant to the president of Loyola Marymount University．

The crowd broke into choruses of “Happy Birthday” several times．Some people presented him birthday cards, to his delight．

Travis Kemp, a 51–year–old disabled man with long black hair, was one of the lucky 20 to receive $ 100．He said he had no special plans for spending the money．“He has a lot of respect from me,” Kemp said．“I know I couldn’t do it．”

Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere wall away from your college．

King’s Art Centre

A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere．This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists．

You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint – free of charge．

The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee．

the Botanic Garden

The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University．

The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive．The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss．

Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals．

The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts．Look for grass snakes in the lake．A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun．

Byron’s Pool

Many stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University．Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”．However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough．I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms．He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.

It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron’s Pool．A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields．The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea．If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf – over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool．

I will always remember my mother’s last days in this world.

On February 14th, 2008, my class went on a field trip to the beach. I had so much fun. When we returned to school, my teacher told me to go to the headmaster’s office. When I got into the office, I saw a police officer. Suddenly, I realized something was wrong. The police officer told me what had happened and we went to pick my sister up. After that, we went to the hospital and waited. Time went slowly. Finally, we got to see our mother. It was terrible.

On the next day, the headmaster came and told my two teachers what had happened. I was taking a test that day. I knew it had something to do with my mother. I kept thinking that she either died or had gotten better. How I wished that she had gotten better. When my teacher took me outside, my sister ran up to me. She started crying, “She’s gone, Terresa, mommy’s gone. She’s dead.” I couldn’t believe it. We jumped into the car and drove straight to the hospital. Most of my family were there. The silence was terrible. I knew I had to say goodbye.

Today when I look back, I still miss my mother very much, but I know that I will live. My mother was a strong mother, who had the biggest heart. She was an angel walking on the earth. I will always remember her as a living. When someone is asked who their hero is, they usually say someone famous, like Michael Jordan or Britney Spears. When someone asks me who my hero is, I tell them, my mother. My mother lives everyday. That is what makes her a true hero.
