Coaching Toward Better Family Relationships
In 2001, Betty Carter & Monica McGoldrick two of the most-respected authors, teachers, and clinicians in the field of family therapy, published Advances in Coaching: Family Therapy with One Person, detailing 25 years of research into the theory and techniques of "coaching" individuals to change themselves in the context of their family of origin. The technical term "coaching" refers to preparing and acting for change in the individual's natural system of relationships.
In contradistinction to traditional individual therapy, coaching focuses on real world behavior with significant others rather than the in-session therapeutic relationship. It is not the interaction with the therapist but rather the individual's relationships with their family of origin that is of utmost value. Although this approach is regarded as one of the major modes of intervention in family therapy, the actual methods and techniques are not widely understood nor often implemented effectively. Planful techniques for helping individuals deal with difficult family relationships are not widely known by most individual therapists.
The goal of coaching is to help individuals proactively define themselves in relationship to others in their families without emotionally cutting off or giving in. The process of change is built upon ownership of one's emotional reactions to old triggers and interactions. Coaching, or family therapy with one person, offers individuals a process for making change in their relationships even without the participation of other family members.
As a therapeutic coach I help people plan and strategize. I begin by training individuals to become observers and researchers of their role in their family's patterns of behavior, what the anthropologists refer to as being a "participant observer". The information and interactions are then reviewed and we talk about what kind of responses they got, what worked and what didn't, and where they got stuck. Then we plan what they might do different next time in order to get a response that is more in line with what they are looking for.
The process then moves to helping individuals bring their behavior more in line with their deepest beliefs, even if this means upsetting family members by disobeying family "rules." An important part of the coaching process is to help people develop realistic expectations when moving planfully toward changing their part in the family dance. This includes being prepared to respond productively even if unfortunately the other person reacts unfavorably.
Coaching teaches the possibility of dealing with differences without losing connection, which is one of the primary developmental tasks for a young adult. If you are tied up with all of the stuff and rules and roles of your family of origin, it is really hard to figure out who you are and what you want to do with your life.
Coaching is "differentiation in action," guiding people through a process of changing their own participation in unsatisfying family relationship patterns. It is a conscientiously thought through approach to establishing a unique one-to-one relationship with every individual in the family system.

I really enjoyed reading the blog. How can I learn more about Coaching.

Lovely!!! I like what you said. I can see from my personal experiences, being someone emotionally cut off from family for many years (I put the Pacific Ocean between my parents and I), and observing the process of learning to "stay emotionally connected but not reactive" has fostered both my personal/professional growth and the growth of my parents… Your words also remind me of a recent client, who has made significant progress with me but can so much benefit from the "coaching"… And many of my other clients (I see mostly college students), I suspect! … Should I go read the book "Advances in Coaching"? What would you suggest, Ron?

RE the side bar: In short, it is the meaning that we give to things, of the past or present, anything, that determines our experience of it. When a client gets this, it can add greatly add to their personal power, and creativity with respect to life. If I don't like my experience of something, I change the meaning that I have given it.The result – self-responsibility.

Zee Media Bureau/Ritesh K Srivastava
New Delhi: In what is likely to be a crucial day for the Congress party, the Delhi High Court will on Wednesday decide the fate of its national president Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul in the National Herald case, in which they have been summoned to appear before a trial court on August 7.
The Delhi High Court on Tuesday adjourned the hearing till today on the petitions filed by Sonia and Rahul seeking quashing of the trial court summons to them in connection with the case.
The High Court also refused to stay the summons against Gandhis.
Kapil Sibal appearing for Sonia Gandhi opposed the summons and BJP leader Subramanian Swamy`s complaint arguing that a political party is within its right to "write-off" or "assign" a loan.
The Delhi High Court had last week issued notice to Swamy – a key petitioner in this case - to reply to the Congress leaders` petitions in this case. Swamy, however, sought more time to file a detailed report.
At the heart of the court case is Associated Journals Limited (AJL), publisher of three newspapers, including National Herald, an English daily founded and edited by Jawaharlal Nehru before he became independent India`s first prime minister.
In 2008, the company closed its operations with an unpaid debt of about USD 15 million, according to allegations in a copy of the court order. The case accuses the Gandhis of setting up a firm called Young Indian Company to buy the debt using Congress party funds even though AJL allegedly had real estate assets worth at least USD 335 million, which would have cleared the debt.
Motilal Vora, the Congress party treasurer, was managing director of Associated Journals and later became a shareholder of Young Indian Company, according to the allegations. Swamy alleged that Young Indian Company then owned all the equity in Associated Journals and rented out its properties to profit its shareholders, including Rahul and Sonia, who together controlled 76% stake.
Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul Gandhi were summoned by the court in June after Swamy filed a complaint accusing them of cheating and misappropriation of funds in acquiring ownership of now-defunct daily National Herald.
In his petition, the senior BJP leader had alleged misappropriation of assets worth Rs 2000 crore of the National Herald newspaper. Swamy had also accused Sonia, Rahul and others of conspiring to cheat and misappropriate funds by just paying Rs 50 lakh by which Young Indian obtained the right to recover Rs 90.25 crore which the Associate Journal Limited had owed to the Congress party.
Congress leaders have alleged vindictiveness by the new BJP government, which took power in May after winning the national election and said that it will respond to them in court.
Among other leaders who have received summons include Motilal Vora and senior Congress member Oscar Fernandes.
Interestingly, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Monday said that the National Herald case against the Gandhis may come to an end if the Congress party returns the loans.
Speaking to a TV news channel, Jaitley also cleared that the Enforcement Directorate was not conducting any enquiry against the Gandhis into the matter.
Though Income Tax department has built a strong case in the National Herald matter concerning the Gandhi family, there may be no case made out by Enforcement Directorate (ED), the Minister was quoted as saying.
"The National Herald case is prima facie a very strong case. The Congress could simply return the loan and the matter could end. There is no truth to media reports of an Enforcement Directorate inquiry in the Herald case," the Finance Minister said.
Jaitley was referring to reports suggesting that Enforcement Directorate was conducting a preliminary enquiry to see if a case could be made out under stringent sections of the money laundering Act. Sources said the agency was scanning documents with Registrar of Companies to see if it could formally register a case.
The court had summoned Sonia Gandhi and her son to appear before it on August 7 in connection with the case, hence it would be interesting to see if they get any relief from the court in the case.

YORK, Pa. — Witnesses reported minor confrontations in the streets Saturday as police kept hundreds of demonstrators at bay during a rally by white supremacists in a city still feeling the effects of deadly race riots more than 30 years ago.
Matthew Hale, leader of the white supremacist group World Church of the Creator, spoke to about 70 supporters inside a library while police officers in riot gear, some on horseback, separated shouting groups of his supporters and anti-racist protesters.
"We seek the advancement of white people, our people, without any apologies, any compromise, any groveling before anybody," Hale told supporters and spectators inside the library.
Marion Kinard, 31, of York, said he attended the speech with his two sons, ages 4 and 6, to teach them about racism.

The chief executive of a top regional housing providers has been awarded an OBE in the Queen's birthday honours for his services to the industry.
Chan Kataria of EMH Group has received the honour in recognition of his personal and professional contribution to the housing sector and communities over a career spanning 30 years.
Under Chan's leadership, EMH has grown to own and manage more than 19,000 homes across the East Midlands with an annual turnover of nearly £100million and output of new homes almost doubling to 400 annually over the last five years.
Professor Jeffrey Knight, chairman of the EMH Group board, said: "With housing now right at the top of public and political agendas, our industry and communities need leaders and role models like Chan more than ever.
"Our congratulations to him on this richly-deserved honour."
Born in Uganda, Chan came to the UK aged 11 in 1972, when his family was among those forced to leave their home country by the regime of Idi Amin.
After completing a degree in economics, he chose a career in housing which took him to positions with local, regional and national organisations.
Chan joined East Midlands Housing Association in 2004 and began building it into a larger and more diverse group.
Throughout his career, colleagues say he has earned a reputation for openness, integrity and inclusion.
Chan is also on the board of the PlaceShapers alliance of housing associations, chairman of the East Midlands National Housing Federation executives' forum, a fellow of the Chartered Institute of Housing and an honorary associate of De Montfort University.

Why God Used Stephen In Such Powerful Ways
Contributed by Paul Fritz on Sep 23, 2001 (message contributor)
Summary: The Lord multiplies those who are willing to follow Christ in all aspects of life even if it means personal sacrifice. Stephen spoke out against the idolatry of the people who trusted more in the gods of their own making than Jehovah. (Acts 7:40) It might
Why God Used Stephen's Willingness to Die for What He Believed (Acts 7)
Illustration:Ministry that costs nothing, accomplishes nothing.
John Henry Jowett.
1. Jesus said, "If anyone will come after me let him deny himself, take up his cross daily and follow me." (Luke 9:23) The Lord multiplies those who are willing to follow Christ in all aspects of life even if it means personal sacrifice. Stephen spoke out against the idolatry of the people who trusted more in the gods of their own making than Jehovah. (Acts 7:40) It might not be politically correct to speak out against idolatry but anything less than total consecration to our Sovereign Lord is a form of idol worship.
Illustration:It is said that Cyrus, the founder of the Persian Empire, once had captured a prince and his family. When they came before him, the monarch asked the prisoner, "What will you give me if I release you?" "The half of my wealth," was his reply. "And if I release your children?" "Everything I possess." "And if I release your wife?" "Your Majesty, I will give myself." Cyrus was so moved by his devotion that he freed them all. As they returned home, the prince said to his wife, "Wasn't Cyrus a handsome man!" With a look of deep love for her husband, she said to him, "I didn't notice. I could only keep my eyes on you- -the one who was willing to give himself for me."
2. After Stephen martyrdom the Christians were scattered abroad in a great wave of persecution that swept believers to areas that were ripe for the harvest. Soon the believers started evangelizing the areas of Judea and Samaria which quickly became the new center of the Christian missionary movement for the whole world. This fulfilled the second part of Christ's command given in Acts 1:8. Sometimes when the church is slow to obey God's directives He allows hardships to give Christians a wake up call. God often uses adversity in the lives of believers for His greater purposes.
Sometimes we have to become uncomfortable before we are willing to do whatever it takes to complete Christ's great commission. Do not get discouraged when you encounter various trials since God will use you in even greater ways for the sake of the growth of His kingdom and righteousness if you will just trust Him through times of distress.
Do not grow bitter, resentful or angry at your persecutors as God can work all things together for good. (Rom. 8:28) Joseph said, "They meant it for evil, but God turned it for good for the saving of many lives." (Gen 50:20)
3. The believers who witnessed Stephen's death were catalyzed to preach Christ with greater boldness, conviction and power. The blood of the martyrs has always acted as a fertilizer for the growth of the church throughout history.
Allow the Lord to use you in ways that you may not think of since He always rewards great expressions of obedience, faith and love. Nothing done in His name goes unrewarded.
4. Stephen was willing to suffer even to the point of asking forgiveness for his persecutors as a measure of how much he identified with Christ on the cross.
When we completely identify ourselves with the sufferings of Christ He will multiply, bless and use our lives as a greater testimony than ever before.
5. Philip's evangelistic tours followed
Stephen's death as is seen in Acts 8:4-40. While in Samaria an angel commanded him to meet an Ethiopian official on the road between Jerusalem and Gaza. The powerful man was used of God to reach many Africans for Christ as a result of his conversion.
Philip went on to Azotus and Caesarea as he knew that God had other ripe fields waiting for the good news of forgiveness found in Christ.
Allow the Lord to use you with a wide diversity of people who you may not normally associate with.
6. Stephen's body was laid at the feet of Saul who was seen as one of the chief persecutors of Christians. God used this event in Saul's life to prepare him for a dramatic conversion along the road to Damascus.
Paul learned that God had other plans for him that were greater than his own.
Allow the Lord to change whatever plans you might have as you follow the example of great men like Stephen.
7. God used Stephen to mobilize Peter's missionary tour found in Acts 9:32-11:18.
Many of the Jews, up to the stoning of Stephen, were complacently waiting for people to come to Jerusalem to ask them questions about the Lord Jesus.
Realize that God may use adversity to alter your schedule and plans for His purposes.
8. The church of Antioch in Syria became a missionary sending church as a result of the Christians who fled there for refuge follow the persecution in Jerusalem. (Acts 11:19)

I was able to fly (thanks to Jason's frequent flyer miles) to California during the first week of March for my dear cousin's wedding. My mom, sister Nikki and brother drove out for the festivities, too. It was so fun to spend a couple of days before the wedding with Amelia, helping her check off her last pre-wedding to-do list items.
We steamed tablecloths, cooked 40 pounds of pasta, and set up dozens of tables, decorations, etc.
Amelia is a florist and talented flower-arranger, so she did all of her own flowers for the reception. She got a little emotional when it was time to make her own bouquet. Happy day! My mom and I even learned how to make a boutonniere (or rather, 17 of them), a skill that would have come in handy when I was in high school.
Their wedding day was beautiful! Roger picked Amelia up in this classy 1938 Something (I forgot what it's called...)
They were sealed in the gorgeous Newport Beach LDS Temple. The ceremony was lovely, and being in that sealing room reminded me so much of when Ethan was sealed to our family. It brought back the flood of emotions from that day, the gratitude and love and faith that my Father has a plan for me and my family. It also made me wish to be there someday soon with Baby (we've still got a long wait to see whether that will be possible).
Nikki and me waiting for the newlyweds to come out of the temple.

Amelia and her parents (Linda and Jeff) and her Grandma.
Between the sealing and reception, my mom, sister, brother and I went to a couple of beaches. We happened to time things just right and came to one of their favorite tide pools at low tide.
We saw pelicans, starfish, mussels, anemones, hermit crabs and a guy we called "Steve". We met a nice fellow and his 2 kids who were exploring the tide pools as well. We didn't learn his actual name, but he looked like a "Steve" to us, so that's what we called him.
Steve showing us a starfish eating a delicious mussel lunch.
We visited a pier a few miles away. As we were looking out at the ocean, my mom started reading a sign about gray whales. She looked up at the water and spotted a pod not far from where we were standing.
I liked the way a man next to us pointed out the whales to his family. He said, "Do you see those dark things out there that you think are rocks? But they're moving around and they keep spraying water into the air? THOSE are the whales!"
It was a long day, but the bride was able to find a little time to put her feet up before the reception.
Somehow I missed getting a picture of myself with Amelia, but here's an old one:
I loved being away for a few days, but mostly I was grateful to be there for Amelia. We spent weeks together every summer, wrote letters back and forth for years (including during her LDS mission) and I love her dearly. I'm so happy for you, dear cousin!

Trib editorial: Geography, not philosophy, guided Pennsylvania primary
Tuesday's primary showed voting patterns in statewide races that were more closely aligned to geography than of political philosophy.
A look at the Pennsylvania map showed that to be the case for the contested races for the Republican nomination for governor, lieutenant governor and U.S. Senate.
Scott Wagner, the state senator from York, handily beat Paul Mango of Pine Township. The Pittsburgh businessman won all of Southwestern Pennsylvania and nothing else.
For lieutenant governor, Republican Jeff Bartos of Montgomery County, who teamed with Wagner, took all of the state other than Philadelphia and Pennsylvania's southwest corner — home to Diana Irey Vaughn, the Washington County commissioner.
Democrat John Fetterman will face Bartos in the fall. The Braddock mayor took every county in the western two-thirds of the state but no place in the east.
The trend was the same in the U.S. Senate race. Republican Jim Christiana, a state representative from Beaver County, won much of western Pennsylvania (but not Westmoreland) and nothing else statewide. All of those counties were claimed by four-term congressman and former Hazleton mayor Lou Barletta, who will take on incumbent Sen. Bob Casey in November.
In contested congressional races, the GOP contest for the 14th Congressional District was the most publicized, but its outcome isn't surprising. Guy Reschenthaler, the 35-year-old state senator from Jefferson Hills, handed Rick Saccone his second congressional loss in two months. Saccone lost a special election for a different district in April.
Philosophy really didn't play much into Reschenthaler's win; both have similar views. It likely was Saccone's loss to Democrat Conor Lamb in April and the spotlight it placed on Saccone. All Reschenthaler had to claim was that he's conservative and he's not Saccone.
Reschenthaler will face Democrat Bibiana Boerio of Unity.
In the 13th Congressional District, its eastern Westmoreland County voters had a light turnout, not surprisingly. Westmoreland's voters account for just 6 percent of the sprawling 10-county district's. None of its candidates was from Westmoreland, and few made appearances.
Good luck with that representation.
Perhaps the region's most compelling congressional race won't take place until November when upstart Democrat Conor Lamb takes on incumbent Keith Rothfus to represent the 17th Congressional District.
The big stunner, statewide, in state Senate races occurred in the Alle-Kiski Valley. Republican Randy Vulakovich of Shaler was handily defeated by Ross Township Commissioner Jeremy Shaffer. There were 22 state senators up for reelection; Vulakovich was the only one from either party to lose Tuesday's primary. He lost despite the backing of the state GOP leaders. Shaffer claimed he was the more conservative of the two.
In state House races of local interest, the 54th District held center stage. Longtime Murrysville Mayor Bob Brooks beat three formidable candidates, all from Murrysville. He'll face the area's only young candidate in the fall, 22-year-old Democratic nominee Jon McCabe, of Lower Burrell, who beat another 22-year-old. The power of the youth movement in politics will be severely challenged in the fall.

An estimated 80 percent of Texas healthcare.gov consumers will be able to purchase a plan for less than $75 per month, HHS says, even if all final rates from insurers were to increase by double digits
By Sabriya Rice
The Dallas Morning News, Aug. 24, 2016
Despite recent decisions by several health insurers to stop offering plans in Texas on the Obamacare marketplace in 2017, federal officials say consumers will continue to have low-cost options.
An estimated 80 percent of those who purchase health coverage on HealthCare.gov during open enrollment should be able to purchase a plan for less than $75 per month. That's even in a hypothetical scenario where final rates from insurers increase 50 percent, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said Wednesday.
Nearly 1.1 million Texans are covered by plans purchased on the marketplace. In a report focused on the affordability of coverage nationwide, HHS said tax credits designed to protect consumers from rate increases will offset the costs for 7 of 10 purchasers.
While the costs may be low, the report did not specifically address another factor affecting Texas consumers: dwindling options.
This month alone, Aetna and Scott & White Health announced that they would no longer offer plans in Texas on the marketplace next year, and Oscar said it would pull out of Dallas and Fort Worth.
Around 60 counties of the 254 in the state will have just one option in 2017 unless another health insurer enters the market in those areas.
"It's always the folks that are leaving that get the headline, not the folks that are entering," argued Mandy Cohen, chief of staff for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
She pointed to Cigna, which in June announced plans to offer insurance on the Obamacare marketplace in cities in Illinois, North Carolina and Virginia.
Entries and exits are expected in this type of marketplace, and the recent departures do not undercut the ability of the exchange to remain competitive and keep prices low, HHS said. However, not everyone agrees with the positive assessment or the approach.
The idea that health care coverage has been adequately addressed by the Affordable Care Act "is really a fallacy," says Dr. Leonard Zwelling. He's a retired oncologist in Houston and member of Physicians for a National Health Program, a group that has long advocated for health care to be a basic right.
"As long as market forces stay in place, insurers are going to go where the money is. That's just the way it is," Zwelling said. Simply having a low-price policy does not give patients access to all doctors, hospitals or specialty care, he added.
Still, the HHS notes that before the law passed, people with pre-existing conditions had no option and others faced lifetime limits, coverage caps and high costs.
In rural areas of Texas, where insurance choices may be few, rates of uninsured residents continued to drop, said Ben Wakana, HHS deputy assistant secretary for public affairs. In rural areas nationwide, uninsured rates fell by a third in 2015, he said.
"Limited choice has not hampered one of the fundamental goals of the Affordable Care Act, which was to drive down the uninsured rate and give people access to coverage they didn't have before," he said.
Insurers are needing to adjust rates as many plans were priced as much as 20 percent lower than what the government originally estimated would be needed to be sustainable. Also, a program created to supplement payments to insurers for enrolling patients who need high-cost care is ending after next year.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas has the most expansive footprint in Texas and is one of the few large providers that, so far, has not announced plans to pull out. It is in the process of negotiating the rate for individual plans it sells on the exchange market.
Many issuers are making one-time adjustments to bring premiums in line with costs and to reflect the uncertainties of the new market, HHS said. All marketplace premiums will be finalized and public in October.
"This is a new market, with businesses participating and making business decisions," said Cohen. For insurers, that means a learning curve about how to be successful in this market.
However, a potential downside to the business model is the disruption to continuity of care, as provider networks can vary dramatically from plan to plan.
Patients who have to switch plans may find that the doctors they know and trust are not part of their new coverage. For people with chronic illnesses, consistency in treatment is critical to ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks.
It's a concern for many hospital, physician and other health care industry groups. And it's not new. The Texas Academy of Family Physicians noted that disruptions in providers on insurance policies were a problem long before the ACA went into effect.
"We're hopeful the changes in the marketplace won't cause too much disruption," said Jonathan Nelson, TAFP's director of communications. "The relationships patients and their family physicians develop over time are extremely important to keeping those patients healthy."
And those relationships are what might be lost in the focus on selling coverage, Zwelling said. "Coverage is not the issue; the real issue is access to care," he said. "And this puts that care right back out of reach."

There are four different categories for Australian visas—business visas, employer-sponsored visas, skilled visas, and family visas.
In this blog post, we will be talking about the employer-sponsored visas and how you can get them. There are three different visas in this category: Subclass 457, Subclass 186, and Subclass 187.
If an Australian business cannot find people to fill a specific position from the local work force, then it has the option of finding workers from overseas.
Employer-Sponsored Visas
Subclass 457 is also known as the Temporary Work (Skilled) Visa. Those who attain this visa are eligible to work and reside in Australia for anywhere from three months to four years.
This visa places requirements on both the sponsor and the potential employee. The sponsor company needs to be eligible to nominate an employee for the Subclass 457 visa. If the company and employee are both proven eligible, then authoritative figures in Australia will conduct an in-depth skills assessment to prove that the employee indeed has the necessary skills to work in Australia and contribute to the economy.
Subclass 186 is also known as the Employer Nomination Scheme. If you plan to work permanently in Australia, then this can be your first step. Like all the other visas in this category, both your potential employer and you need to prove eligibility. For instance, you must be under the age of 50, prove that you have the necessary English speaking skills, meet the standard Australian health requirements, and present the nomination by an eligible company, among others. Your employer, on the other hand, must offer you with a position that will be ongoing for at least 2 years, prove the need to hire an overseas worker, follow all Australian rules and regulations for running businesses, and so much more.
If you have successfully applied for this visa, then you are eligible to become a permanent resident of the country so long as your company continues to sponsor you.
Subclass 187 is the visa you need to apply for if you want to work for a company located in one of the regional areas of Australia. There are certain people who are eligible for this visa. First, those who are holders of the Subclass 457 visa and who have proven their loyalty and character while in Australia can apply for the Subclass 187 visa. Second, those who have never or briefly worked in Australia but who qualify for the Direct Entry stream can also apply. Lastly, those who are nominated by certain companies under a Labor Agreement can also apply for this kind of visa.
Where to Begin
If you have an employer waiting for you, then kudos! You are on the way to working and living in Australia. If you need a little bit of help moving to, say, Melbourne, then you can contact an agency (us, Ausdirect Migration) to provide you with visa migration services in Melbourne. Contact us today to get your quote and take that first step towards a brighter future in the Land Down Under.

To sum it up, we have a lot in common with Bode and Ricky and nothing in common with Michael and Cal. What makes Michael Jordon such a great athlete might make him a lousy co-worker or friend. When it comes time to make choices in life, we will likely become like Bode, not Mike. As Klosterman says,
"I can't read Bode Miller's mind, but I bet the interior monologue bouncing around his cerebral cortex sounds something like this: "My job is OK, and I'm good at it. I suppose I could even be better if that was the only thing I cared about, but I'm not sure what the benefit of that would be, beyond appeasing a bunch of people I'll never actually meet. And if I can get paid this much money for being myself, why would I want to force myself to become somebody else's caricature? I'm already content with who I am."This makes complete sense to me and helps me understand why I was one of 5 people in America that liked Bode Miller. Give it a well deserved 5 minutes to peruse and let me know what you think.

Columbia Passes Big Test
Wednesday, November 28, 2007
The City Planning Commission vote okaying Columbia University's plan for a west Harlem campus is a win for the school, the neighborhood and the city.
Columbia would transform 17 acres of a defunct manufacturing zone into a $6 billion center of learning and research. There'd be new parks and shops, as well as classrooms, labs and dorms. There'd be 1,200 construction jobs for 22 years, with 40% of the jobs reserved for women, minorities or local residents. There'd be 7,000 permanent jobs, 6,000 on the Columbia payroll and 1,000 others.
Despite those benefits, the project has been dogged by opponents accusing the university of every crime short of treason: a grotesque land grab; the rich trampling upon the downtrodden poor. And so on.
Nonsense. The campus would take up four shopworn blocks from 129th to 133rd St. west of Broadway. Columbia owns 65%. The state and Con Ed have 23%. That gives the university access to 88% of the tract. Most of the remaining 12% consists of two gas stations and a half-dozen commercial properties. The school is trying to negotiate purchases.
In the entire 17 acres, there are only 132 apartments with fewer than 300 tenants, and all have been offered equivalent or better housing, with a guarantee that eminent domain will not be used to acquire homes. None of the apartments are in the first phase of the project; none will be touched until at least 2015.
The plan now goes to the City Council, where approval looks certain. Let the transformation begin - and the truth, not agitators' distortions, win out.

Finding The Perfect Christian School In Newman, Georgia
Landmark Christian school is a k-12 school that is privately owned and run. The school is situated in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the most admired Christian schools in Newnan GA area. They have their main campus in Fairburn and another smaller campus in Peachtree City. The main campus at Fairburn has an average enrolment of about 750 students while the Peachtree campus has an average admission of about 100 students. The school has a highly qualified teaching and nonteaching staff who are very dedicated to their work. They all have compassion towards the growing children and guide them based on the Christian principles of love and compassion.
Raising Godly Children
The school offers strong service-based training that instills Christian morals in the children. They encourage the students to take pride in their service to others and love one another. The enrolment at both campuses depicts a concerted effort to ensure the school is one of the most racially diverse Christian schools in Newnan GA. The management accepts and nurtures godly children without bias or segregation based on skin color or background. According to the teachers at Landmark, every student has their unique weaknesses and strengths that need to be cultivated and managed in order to bring them up as a God-fearing and responsible person.
The Landmark Community
The curriculum at landmark Christian school is designed to provide sufficient time for socializing. The teachers maintain a healthy relationship with the students so that they can feel free to talk about the problems they face. Parents are also kept involved in the education of their children as they get to meet teachers to discuss issues affecting their children.
Landmark's Track Record
The school has been under the able management of Christian teachers who have ensured excellence in academic and co-curricular activities. Landmark takes pride in:
- Excellent academic history with a 100% average graduation rate and 98% of all graduates proceed to noteworthy four-year colleges throughout the United States of America.
- Exemplary diversity since the students are profoundly from very divergent and different backgrounds both in the race and economically. The parents of the school have all commended the cultural diversity of all the students at the school.
- Extensive participation in Clubs and activities. Both the boys and girls in the school are all in various clubs or games. Each of the students is required to involve themselves in at least one non-academic activity to help enhance their social skills.
Overall, the school has received many awards both for the academic prowess of its students and their exemplary performance in games and other extra-curricular activities. The teachers and non-teaching staff are God-fearing as the school is built and operated under strong Christian values.

At Splicer, we discovered that most client-server code can be derived from a data model definition, which we can derive from your existing server artifacts. Our code generators automate Android, IOS, and server coding to provide tremendous cost savings, and represent a new type of "low code" product.
Instead of relying upon a traditional sync server to update your mobile database, use Splicer's model mapping to both control, and synchronize your mobile data. With the Splicer GUI, you select components of your server data model that you need in your client model, and then generate client DAOs. This is an easy and efficient way to correlate your client data to your server model, and allows you to deliver the thinnest clients possible. Once this model map has been established, both fetching and synchronization of complex client data objects are trivial. You can then cache the data locally using native client containers, or easily integrate a mobile database like Realm.io.
Unlike a mobile database sync server that cannot correlate a client object database with an RDBMS, we operate at a higher level of abstraction. We use Splicer to correlate our mobile data model with our server's. With the Splicer GUI, we select components of the server model needed in our client model, and then request those complex objects via native code.
Splicer is a general-purpose "mobile database server" — supporting IOS as well as Android. Additionally, all data objects are typesafe, which allows various compilers to enforce a system data model. And with Splicer, we automate only what is necessary — allowing you to code natively as you're already accustomed. It is even more useful when integrating sets of mobile apps to your backend — providing the link between the client pojos and your server database or model.
In a sense, Splicer acts as a turnkey "bridge" that maps typesafe Android and IOS objects with structured backend data from relational databases like MySql, Postgres, SQLServer, and Oracle. You can then easily modify that relationship via our "bridge" GUI. We also plan to support NoSQL databases as well, so drop us a line and we will let you know of our progress on that front.

Escape from Wisconsin
Went to Platteville, just 25 miles from Dubuque, to purchase a stationary feed mixer for my increasingly popular DDGS business. And while the folks where I bought it from were exceedingly friendly (even washed my pickup while they worked on the trailer lights!), I noticed a few small things here and there in Cheeseland that reminded me I was not in The South of Iowa:
1) Supper Clubs - Eastern Iowa has more of these, too, but they are non-existent here.
2) Papst Blue Ribbon signs
3) Knights of Columbus, the Catholic knock off of Freemasonry
4) Cheese curds (probably to attract the tourists)
However, if I didn't live in The South of Iowa, and had my choice of rural places to live, I would honestly consider southern Wisconsin. Beautiful country, a vibrant rural culture/community, and nice folks. Having more bars in a town than churches is quite interesting, but I think alcohol is considered in a different light than by the Prohibition minded Protestants here.
Wisconsin, you are my friend.

Well, well, well...This is it ! Mitchell Hurwitz and Jim Vallely are working on the Arrested Development script !
Isn't that great ?! The information was revealed by the THR website :
"Arrested Development" creator Mitchell Hurwitz and his co-executive producer James Vallely are working on a screenplay for the long-debated feature version of their short-lived Fox series. Even as they prep a new Fox comedy series with "Arrested" star Will Arnett, the writers are spinning more bizarre encounters for the eccentric, spoiled Bluth clan for possible feature production in the spring.
Imagine, which produced the TV show, and Fox Searchlight are producing the film.
Hurwitz had said that he wouldn't start writing a film unless all the main actors, including Jason Bateman, Michael Cera, David Cross, Arnett, Alia Shawkat, Portia de Rossi and Jeffrey Tambor, were committed. Earlier in the year, speculation circulated about which wanted to return as the show's hyper-invested fans pushed from the sidelines and the actors themselves spurred excitement.
Hey T-Bone !

Hi Jeanie… My name is Gabby Bruce and I along with Finley Duncan produced Jimmie's Sun Records first deal with That's Alright Now Momma, and Blue Moon Over Kentucky. It was the original idea of Shelby Singleton who turned the project over to us at Playground Recording Studios in Valparaiso, Florida
in 1977 – 78. If I can help fill you in with some additional information about the early years I would love to help. We all loved Jimmie and he was fabulous to work with. He came a long way from his Kentucky Walking Horse training days. I hope I have the opportunity to view your Documentary on Jimmie. Thank you and have a great week.

Several articles have been published regarding the new US Cuba travel policy that is expected soon from the Obama Administration.
From CNN Obama administration preparing to loosen rules on Cuba travel
The Obama administration is preparing to announce new rules allowing some travel to Cuba, along with an expanded ability for Americans to send economic assistance, a senior U.S. official and congressional sources said Wednesday.
According to two congressional aides briefed informally on the plans, the administration is expected to announce "soon" that it will essentially reinstate measures that were in place under the Clinton administration.
Both aides stressed that the administration is still working through the details and legal language.
"It's a return to Clinton, plus some," one aide said, noting that President George W. Bush tightened restrictions on travel and cultural exchanges.
A good summary from Change.org with a petition to encourage the President: Mr. President, Be Bold on People to People Travel to Cuba
The Brookings Institute article: Seizing the Opportunity to Expand People to People Contacts
Governor Richardson weighs in with his Time for Western Hemisphere countries to collaborate opinion as he travels to Cuba. Word now is he is expected to push for the release of Alan Gross while the Governor is in Cuba.
So, will the President's announcement help or hinder the movement of HR 4645 through the House Foreign Affairs committee?
Time magazine asks Will the White House Fight to End the Cuba Travel Ban?
Also, we have to ask, will the very tiny but very vocal minority of Cuban Americans have any effect on the President or 4645?
Add this to the mix too…
The Catholic Church in Cuba responds to open letter from dissidents.
When the Administration will act, and how much it will do is still subject to internal discussion and outside pressure.
Pro-travel members of Congress have been woefully silent. Only the Cuban American quintet have pressured the White House.
Nothing is as important for the next two weeks as urging the President to act with boldness, as recommended by Governor Richardson. One way to do that is by sending a personalized version of this on-line letter http://www.change.org/petitions/view/mr_president_be_bold_on_people_to_people_travel_to_cuba
For more background, take a look at our on-line Right to Travel newsletter.

Let's hope the President and Congress do the right thing for the majority of Americans.

Planning the French Drain
All the rainwater from the front of the house funneled into a drain in the corner where the garage met the house (see photo on right). The month I moved in, Santa Rosa received its entire annual rainfall in one month -- January, 2000. It spilled onto the heavy clay soil making a swampy mess bound on all sides by the old concrete path.
Howard broke up the old path with a sledge hammer in just an hour, but it took weeks to dispose of the the concrete. A few pounds a week in the household garbage can, until eventually it was all carted off.
It also took weeks to get the city to approve the permit to dig under the sidewalk and punch a hole in the curb. We were visited by telephone, water and cable who all painted codes on the street before Howard could dig the trench, lay the drain and tunnel under the sidewalk.
|Mist likes to lounge under the round bush and wait for Howard to come home in the afternoon. He pets her and feeds her, so he is her friend.

Over the years, road quality has improved, driving regulations have been perfected and vehicles are well-equipped with state of the art safety and navigation features; making driving a much simpler task than years gone by. All of these aid in the process of driving, however, passing your road test in Canada takes a lot of dedication and practice. Even the most safety-conscious drivers can still fall short come test day and have to repeat the process. The only way around this is to prepare as much as possible before you book your road test in Canada. Here are three tips to help with your preparation for your Canadian road test.
1) Drive as much as you can in as many different conditions as possible
Whist there are loads of online simulations you can use to practice, nothing beats actually getting out on the road to fully prepare you. It may be uncomfortable and scary at first, but try driving in every type of weather condition including snow and rain if possible. That way, no matter what the weather on the day of your test; you will be as prepared as possible.
2) Try to experience as many road situations as possible
No one likes to think of test day being dramatic. The odds are the test will go smoothly, however, there is always the chance that a car door will be opened just as you are approaching, a football will be kicked into the road that you are navigating or a bird will fly in your path. Situations like these can be daunting and require quick action. The more experience you have on the road will increase your awareness and perception so that, should something like this happen on test day, you will be more than capable of reacting quickly and safely.
3) Try not to rely on automation
Parking assistance and cruise control can be extremely useful, except on test day. In order to pass your road test in Canada, you must be able to prove that you can drive successfully without relying on automation like these. We would recommend not using these at all until you have passed your driving test so that you can perform to the best of your ability come test day.

I have used Windows Remote Desktop Connection in the past and it has worked very well for me. I tried it last week while traveling and got messages saying that they couldn't connect to the remote computer and they couldn't find the remote computer. The only thing that is different from when I could connect is I purchased new 2011 Norton Internet Security software, which was an upgrade from the previous Norton Internet Security I had on my system. Any idea on what I have to do to get RDC to work? Please keep it as simple as possible.
You may have to configure the new software to allow the incoming Remote Desktop connection. I'm not familiar with NIS, so I can't say for sure.
Thanks Jennifer. I did configure the NIS Smart Firewall to allow port 3389 and 3489 but it still doesn't work. I have my Windows firewall turned off.
As a back-up, I have downloaded TeamViewer software and it works very well. Does anybody have any experience or comments about that software? It is highly rated by PC Magazine and CNET.
Norton may be application specific and not just port secure. Open the application in Norton.
Also it is easy if one side has upnp enabled. Norton may have disabled it. Or your router/other side may be disable. Otherwise you need to nat.

After that, he just wanted to rest and be held. The first day you could really tell when the pain medicine was wearing off, but our wonderful nurse Barbara kept us on a good schedule and kept the pain under control for him. Today, he's doing great - just taking Tylenol for the pain during the day and the hydrocodone at night. He's sleeping well, which I know will help him feel much better very soon.
At the hospital, E had an IV and heart monitor on his feet, both of which drove him completely crazy! We were covering them with blankets so you couldn't see, but the bright red light on the heart monitor made it a lot of fun to pull on. The IV must have done the trick (along with the amazing amounts of fluid he took down on his own) as we estimate we went through 20 diapers in a 24-hour period, several of which needed to be changed long before. Both DaDi and Nanny (Heath's mom) were completely soaked by diapers. Heath got drenched, I've never seen a diaper pour (yes, that is the correct word) out of the sides and run down a DaDi's leg. Especially considering it had been changed about 45 minutes prior.
Once the monitors and IVs were out of his feet, E did much better. He was ready to get down and play and seemed to be a new little boy, but our amazing turning point came when we walked into the house. He let out a real sigh of relief and ran for his toys. He's slept well in his own bed - a four-hour nap! - and just been much more calm and happy. It's amazing what a difference it makes to be home...
We have been warned that he will have a really bad day about a week out when his scabs fall off, so we'll play that one by ear, but for now, we're amazed at our little trooper!
Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers while we were at the hospital. It's amazing the difference we already see in E. Stone's breathing and sleeping. I didn't hear him toss and turn at all last night and even had to go in to check to make sure he was breathing - that's the first time we've had to do that since he's been home!

Happy New School Year! Amazing pictures, friend! : )ReplyDelete

The shark and rope walking are amazing! And I LOVE that last pic.ReplyDelete
Are the frogs noisy? Did you grill up the shark?ReplyDelete

We were slightly worried that we would spending Christmas cleaning up the aftermath of a flash flood through Heath's parents house due to big rain upstream on Thursday. Thankfully the water peaked within inches of going through their house and Santa was definitely on our side. I have never seen a flood at the farm before and was so shocked to see how quickly the water levels rose...thankfully our shabby little cottage is on high ground!
We spent Christmas Eve celebrating the fireworks display that our beautiful country town put on as a community event. These fireworks put any display to shame - they are amazing and it is such a warm & fuzzy feeling to sit on the football field amongst all the locals sharing the same excitement. Watching the kids run to Santa when he comes for a visit and then watching their faces as the sky lights up in a kalediscope of colour. Macie spent the whole time going "BANG BANG BANG" and absolutely loved it.....and that is what Christmas is all about.
|A HUGE thanks to Ma & Pa for taking these photos!
A huge day at the farm surrounded by all Heath's family. Breakfast at the cottage, swimming in the Jumping Castle, playing on the swings, collapsing for a sleep while Heath & I get to enjoy a long lunch with everyone and then back up for an afternoon of fishing, laughing and lots of fun. By 7pm Heath & I were more exhausted than Macie!!
Then off to my parent's on Boxing Day morning to do it all over again....
Another day filled with so many special memories, long lunches while Macie slept, plenty of laughs, swimming and presents! Macie tried out her new floaties in the pool with Heath and they were such a huge hit!!
Now it's home for some peace and quiet before the next BIG milestone of our lives happens in Feb 2012......and when I say BIG....I really mean it....our little man is growing more and more every single day and February seriously can't come quick enough! We are so so so excited and can't wait for Macie to be a big sister - because we know that she will love him to bits!
So much to be thankful for in 2011....and so much to be excited for in 2012! Hope you all had a great Christmas and have a safe New Year! I shall be spending mine on the couch cuddling up to the husbo!! X

I am a repeat customer. They replaced my upstairs heating and air conditioning last year and they recently replaced my downstairs heating and air conditioning. They were prompt and thorough. They are cost competitive and committed to excellent customer service. I am looking forward to experiencing some significant energy savings from my new system as I experienced last year with the installation of my upstairs system.

Early lung cancer will not have any symptoms. This is why patients who have increased risk factors for lung cancer should be screened with a computed tomography (CT) scan. This is similar to how mammography screens for asymptomatic breast cancers.
Most lung cancers do not cause symptoms until they have grown locally or spread. Any of the following problems should be reported to a doctor. Often these symptoms are caused by something other than cancer, but if lung cancer is found, getting treatment right away can help prevent it from spreading and/or increase the chances of it being cured.
The most common symptoms of lung cancer are:
The most common symptoms of lung cancer are:
- A cough that does not go away
- Chest pain, often made worse by deep breathing, coughing or laughing
- Hoarseness
- Weight loss and loss of appetite
- Coughing up bloody or rust-colored sputum
- Shortness of breath
- Fatigue
- Recurring respiratory infections, such as bronchitis and pneumonia
- Wheezing that did not previously exist
For the most part, early stage lung cancer is asymptomatic. Symptoms like a new cough, blood in the sputum, weight loss, or chest pain signify an advanced lung cancer. There is no way of knowing that you have an early-stage lung cancer because you won't feel it. There will be no signs or symptoms.

Lung Cancer Symptoms
Lung cancer symptoms usually do not appear until after a tumor has started to grow or even spread. While symptoms vary from person to person, signs may include coughing up blood, back pain, repeated pneumonia or bronchitis, chest ...
pain, hoarseness and exhaustion. People with high lung cancer risk factors, such as smoking or a history of smoking, should consult with their doctor quickly if they experience these of other signs of lung cancer. Learn more about lung cancer symptoms with expert advice from Sharecare.More

Human beings lived in ignorance
Sun Myung Moon
March 7, 2007
Hoon Dok Hae
Cheon Jeong Gung
FFWPU International
Translation of unofficial notes taken by the Unification Church History Compilation Committee
Summary of Father's Words
The absolute sexual ethics is important. Human beings have lived to this day in ignorance to the fact that God is their father, and that He, their origin, had suffered. It is wrong that people did not even come up with this idea regarding God throughout the ages. How great is our responsibility as we are aware of this fact! God must be brought to the surface of a unified heaven and earth in which He can be the owner and father.
That standard set by Heaven begins from the absolute sexual ethics. That's the title of the speeches. "The Family Rooted in Absolute Sexual Ethics, which Is the Model for God's Absoluteness, Peace and Ideal, and the Global Kingdom." There was only one family of God — not two — when the world was created. It was a family centered on absolute sexual ethics. Absoluteness refers to all components being completely harmonized as one, and brought to the highest pinnacle. The world should be unified and resolved under this title.
The absolute sexual ethics which God talks about is one, not two. Absoluteness becomes one through pure love. It cannot happen alone. So there are two beings — a man and a woman. How can they become a single absolute being? "The Family Rooted in Absolute Sexual Ethics, which Is the Model for God's Absoluteness, Peace and Ideal" the root of that absolute family can be found in a man and woman's sexual organs. A conclusion must be made based on that in order to clarify the source of the universe. That's how important the sexual organs are. Any man or woman, even all of you, have sexual organs.
Yet, free-sex, homosexuals and such are things that should be crushed, buried completely and eradicated from the world governed under the heavenly law. Anybody that is born from the lineage of such people would be a terrible existence. How can they return to the original state? God was unable to turn them around. The true ancestor of humanity must appear and turn them around. But before that, God cannot turn them around.
God's main attributes are absolute, unique, eternal and unchanging. There is nothing more we could wish for than an absolute, peaceful and ideal couple.
The lineage was changed by the Fall. It was as if a bandit had come to a wedding and violated the bride, and multiplied children.
God could not do anything with that stained lineage.
You must always lead a vertical life. A vertical life is about knowing the parents.

Emirates SkyCargo and Cargolux announce landmark cargo partnership agreement
Monday, May 8, 2017 — MUNICH/DUBAI/LUXEMBOURG, 9 May 2017 – Emirates SkyCargo and Cargolux Airlines today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for a strategic operational partnership in air cargo transportation. This unique and ground breaking agreement, the first of its kind in the air cargo industry between a mainline airline and a specialised freighter operator, will allow cooperation between two carriers with complementary strengths and shared values for customer service excellence. The agreement was signed at the Air Cargo Europe event in Munich, Germany in the presence of Mr Francois Bausch, Luxembourg's Minister of Sustainable Development & Infrastructure.
Under the terms of the agreement, Emirates SkyCargo and Cargolux will seek to work closely on a number of operational aspects including:
Aircraft capacity: Emirates SkyCargo will utilise Boeing 747F aircraft from Cargolux. Emirates SkyCargo will therefore continue to have access to Boeing 747F aircraft to service customers with heavy/outsized cargo that will require nose loading or adding additional capacity, complementing its own fleet of Boeing 777 freighters.
Block space and interline: Both carriers will further develop block space and interline agreements for use on each other's networks permitting access to capacity on routes where they do not currently operate. This offers customers of both carriers an enhanced global reach for transporting cargo from key production markets to consumer markets. Cargolux will have access to Emirates SkyCargo's high frequency distribution network through the belly-hold of passenger flights to over 150 global destinations in 83 countries, whilst Emirates will have access to main deck 747 capacity on Cargolux's network.
Hub connectivity and cargo handling: Emirates SkyCargo will commence freighter operations to Luxembourg from June 2017. Cargo from both Emirates SkyCargo and Cargolux will be handled at the same facility in Luxembourg. Cargolux will also increase the frequency of freighters to Dubai World Central (DWC) from its current three times a week service to facilitate connectivity between the two cargo hubs. Additionally Cargolux freighters operating to Dubai World Central will be handled by Emirates SkyCargo.
Handling cooperation at both hubs will facilitate seamless movement of cargo between the two operators. Transportation of products requiring special care such as pharmaceuticals will also be smooth given that both operators have EU Good Distribution Practices (GDP) certification for transportation of medicinal products for human use. In addition, hub connectivity between Dubai and Luxembourg will contribute to strengthening the position of both locations as major logistics hubs and distribution centres in their respective regions.
"Emirates SkyCargo is committed to being the leading player in the global air cargo industry providing our customers with the highest standards of products and services. Cooperating with Cargolux who is a leading, established and specialised air cargo operator with strengths that are complementary to our own will allow us to present a broader enriched product offering and add value to our customers," said Nabil Sultan, Emirates Divisional Senior Vice President, Cargo.
"Cargolux is delighted to be working with Emirates SkyCargo on this agreement. As one of the leading carriers worldwide, Emirates SkyCargo is an important player in the industry as Cargolux is, and our supplementary capabilities allow us to develop service offerings that both of us could not provide on our own," said Richard Forson, Cargolux President & CEO. "Emirates SkyCargo's choice of Cargolux as their preferred partner shows that our quest for quality and personal attention to customers is recognized and well received."
In addition to allowing both carriers to develop service offerings to customers, the operational cooperation will enable both parties to ensure best practices in cargo handling and transportation.
