NEW YORK, N.Y. – The NHL holds its draft lottery Monday night, and the Florida Panthers have the best odds of winning.
The draw will determine the order of selection for the first 14 picks of the league's amateur draft June 30. All 14 NHL teams that missed the playoffs have a shot at the No. 1 selection.
Florida finished with the fewest points in the NHL this season. It has a 25 per cent chance of winning the draw, followed by Colorado at 19 per cent and Tampa Bay at 14 per cent.
In previous years, the lottery-winning team could move up no more than four slots in the draft order. This year, the winning draw will draft first overall. The remaining 13 teams are slotted in reverse order of their regular-season point totals.

NORWICH Following an emergency conference called by the court Tuesday, the murder retrial case of Peter M. Wlasiuk set to begin Monday March 3, has been moved to the first week in May.
The motion to postpone the case came at the request of defense attorney Randel Scharf of Cooperstown.
Broome County Judge Martin Smiths decision to adjourn the trial was made in a closed meeting and no information was provided as to why the motion had been approved, other than to say it was at the request of the defense.
District Attorney Joseph McBride said he could not comment on the case except to say it had been postponed at the request of the defense. The judge told attorneys at a pre-trial hearing in the spring not to discuss the case with the media after the defense raised concerns of public bias.

October was a very busy and intense month, and I definitely don't see November being any less so! With the weather becoming colder, it is tempting to just curl up under the covers with a book or spend the evenings watching TV shows. But I think I will have to put that on hold till I've caught up with my studies and made big progress with my dissertation. I've been managing to get some reading done on my tube rides to university and during my lunch breaks but it does mean it is taking me much longer to finish a book!
I am currently reading:
Persuading Annie by Melissa Nathan
The only other Melissa Nathan book I've read is 'The Nanny' and I do remember actually enjoying it so I did have some high hopes for this one. The book is written in third person which actually caught me by surprise as I was expecting to be reading from Annie's point of view. The plot is moving along very fast so I am intrigued to find out how the ending will play out.
What is everyone currently reading? Is the weather getting colder where you live?

Less than 4 hours away from the UK lies Morocco, the exotic gateway to Africa. Lying on the top north eastern corner of the continent, you'll be transported to another world, awash with unique and fascinating sights, customs and Arabian exoticism.
Marrakech is the beautiful and bustling city, a rabbit warren of souks- open air markets- alive with colours and flavours, and the buzz of traders and customers haggling for a bargain! Agadir is the eminent destination for sun-worshipping and with over 300 days of sunshine a year, 10km of sandy beach and modern facilities it lives up to its billing.
Agadir is Morocco's main beach resort, a ten-kilometre stretch of safe sandy beaches banking into the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The seaside is lively and caters for tourists and holidaymakers, with plenty of cafes, restaurants and shops close by, as well as a beautiful 5km-long promenade and recently-built marina; the perfect place to spend a balmy summer evening. Wander into Agadir's main town and you'll find an abundance of shops and mouth-watering eateries waiting for you to sample their wares and pick up Morocco's famous exports of leather and glass goods.
Fez is one of the oldest and largest medieval cities in the world. Immerse yourself in centuries-old souks and a time when the palaces were home to powerful families, rather than places of education. The Riyad Mokri is a beautiful example, with the best gardens in Fez, full of fruit trees, jasmine, honeysuckle and lavender.
Marrakech is the jewel in Morocco's crown and an increasingly popular city to visit either as part of a longer holiday or a trip in itself. Under 4 hours from the UK, the city is a wonderful combination of old and new, and shows travellers the true Moroccan way of life, with stunning architecture and an abundance of friendly locals. Walk the maze of souks, stacked high with spices, potteries, handcrafts, carpets, lanterns, soaps and cosmetics, and leather goods, have fun bartering with the traders for a great deal, and soak up the atmosphere.
With the Sahara desert on its doorstep, a trip to Morocco isn't complete without a little bit of adventure. Take a desert tour, taking in the Atlas Mountains, traditional villages and spend a night under the stars. Saddle up a camel for an authentic desert experience and cover up with a shemagh to protect you from the strong desert sun.
Pay a visit to one of Morocco's hammams, steam baths. Get pampered and buffed, and emerge looking like a whole new person! The perfect remedy to being sand-blasted in the Sahara!
Moroccan food is nothing if not flavoursome. Couscous, one of Morocco's most famous exports serves as a base or a side dish with a range of grilled meat and vegetable.
Pastillas are Morocco's answer to the great British Cornish pasty: meat, vegetables and rice wrapped in flakey pastry.
The traditional tagine, which also gives its name to the clay pot it's cooked in, is a spicy, hearty stew, and olives are a popular snack.
Chicken is the most widely eaten meat, with beef and lamb the most common red meats.
10 year British passport is required with a minimum of 6 months validity from the date of return.

text: In the chilly winter of 2010, two friends from the Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), Pakistan, gave birth to a unique idea to revolutionize education in Pakistan. They were inspired by their experience of the LUMS National Outreach Programme – a community development initiative that trains exceptionally bright students from all over Pakistan – and the annual Seeds of Peace International Camp in the United States that brings together young people from South Asia and the Middle East to deconstruct stereotypes through dialogue. These were the encounters that encouraged Imran Sarwar and Aneeq Ahmed Cheema, both of whom have been Fulbright scholars, to envision Rabtt – a social enterprise in Pakistan working to redefine the way mainstream education is imparted to school students. Though Rabtt began to take shape in Imran and Aneeq's minds in 2010, it was formally founded in 2011. Since then, it has been a harbinger of positive transformation on Pakistan's educational scene.

SlothCoin developement seems to have come to a halt. The website has been offline for a while. And the original developer has not written at the forum announcement item of SlothCoin at BiTCoinTalk for months. When the wallet starts it shows a splashscreen with version 1, but it has been updated to version 1.3.0, by the original developer. SlothCoin is still going strong, so what is the suggested 300K block fork about?
The coin itself is based on the Keccak, better known as SHA3, encryption algorithym. It's logo is the Sloth, a wonderfull inspiring animal, one of earths beautifull creatures. Originally there were to be 10 billion coins to be released, at least that was hard-coded into the wallet software. But when it was announced it stated that there would be a hundred billion SlothCoin released over a period of time. This is done by so called 'mining' and is rewarded with a certain amount of COIN.

It's no secret that Nicolas Cage is in the poorhouse. But why he keeps on spending as if he's worth hundreds of millions of dollars is beyond us. Cage leased two vintage Rolls Royce cars costing thousands of dollars per month back in 2007. He couldn't afford the payments and returned both cars and now the leasing company, Premier Financial Services, is suing him over breach of contract:
TMZ: Cage signed a 60-month lease agreement for a sweet 1964 Rolls Royce SCIII back in 2007. The monthly lease payment -- a cool $7,663.02. The ride was valued at $550,000. But one Rolls is not how Nic rolled. Four months after leasing the '64, Nic leased a 2002 Rolls Royce Corniche. Again -- a 60-month lease with payments of $3,630.71. The car was worth $245,000. So the leasing company is now suing Nic for the money they lost by selling the car wholesale. The company wants $104,490.68 for the '64 Rolls, and $137,077.06 for the '02.
Below, a copy of the lawsuit in full:

The Community Care (Direct Payments) Act 1996
393. This Act enables (but does not require) local authorities to make cash payments to adult persons specified in regulations as an alternative directly to providing or arranging community care services. The Act provides that where an authority makes a direct payment the authority ceases to be under a duty with respect to the provision of the service to which the direct payment relates, provided that they are satisfied that the person's need will be met by the person's own arrangements. The Act also enables regulations to set out a category of person from whom services may not be secured by means of a direct payment and also the maximum period of residential accommodation which may be secured by means of a direct payment (see the Community Care (Direct Payments) Regulations 1997.The Carers and Disabled Children Act 2000 makes amendments to the 1996 Act to enable local authorities to make direct payment to carers in lieu of services under section 2(1) of the 2000 Act. Under the provisions persons who are to be provided with carers services are eligible for direct payments in respect of those services unless they are of a description specified in regulations. The 2000 Act also inserts section 17A into the Children Act 1989 to enable local authorities to make direct payments to persons having parental responsibility for a disabled child and also to make direct payments to disabled children aged 16 or 17. Regulations under section 17A may prescribe categories of person from whom a person may not secure services with a direct payment.
Other Relevant Legislation

395. Section 58 of the Medicines Act 1968 provides for the designation of descriptions or classes of health professional, falling within the classes listed in section 58(1), for the purpose of prescribing or administering prescription only medicines. It is unlawful for such medicines to be sold or supplied - whether privately or on the NHS - except under the prescription of a designated health professional, or administered except by or under the directions of such a professional.

Earlier today a friend pointed me to an article that's gone up on the Malawi Project website:
Empty Medicine Bottle Response Brings Unimaginable Response
If you haven't read it already, here's my piece on taking part in this project. I now keep a box of empty bottles in my kitchen so I can save up and get ready to send another box full of bottles.
If you take medication (regularly or just once in a while) consider saving up your medicine bottles to pass on to this fantastic project! If not, they also take monetary donations – each shipment of bottles costs quite a bit to send, so every little bit helps.

Captain's beds and Loft beds may typically be at a higher level than a normal bed. Sometimes, a head board is often attached, and sometimes a foot board as well. Because this style of bed may be at a high level, the addition of side rails can be very important.
Because there is a danger in falling off the side of a captains bed, safety is crucial. Many accidents have happened form unprotected beds. It is always a good idea to take the necessary precautions in order to avoid a preventable accident.
Importance of Safety Rails
If a platform bed of any type is intended for a child it is always essential to fasten side rails to the bed. Side rails can be easily attached to the side of the bed and come in many different styles. Bed rails come in short versions that are placed in the center of one or both sides of the bed so a child cannot fall out and the half rail will still allow easy access to the bed. Other options that may work better for someone who is a heavy sleeper or moves during sleep, is a longer bed rail that will extend most of or the full length of the bed side. This will ensure safety during sleep. Because a full length bed rail can make access to the mattress a bit more difficult a small ladder can help, or a rail that slides, raises, or lowers in order to have better access.
If a captains bed will be used for a very young child or toddler higher rails will be necessary to prevent falls from leaning over the rails. They will also need to extend the entire length of the bed on all sides that are not against a wall.
Even for adults side rails can ensure safety, especially for the elderly.
Side rails come in wood of many different stains and colors, and are best suited to a wood box frame bed. There are also metal bed rails in a number of color and style options. Plastic is yet another option, and may be similar to the rails on hospital beds. Taking the extra precautions can ensure everyone a peaceful night sleep.

The Berlin Mennonite Church (Mennonite Church USA), Berlin, Ohio, began in 1917 as a mission station or branch of the Martins Creek Church to afford a place of worship for members who did not have transportation to attend the services at Martins Creek during the winter. The Martins Creek congregation purchased a store and apartment house in 1917 and converted it into a church. The first meeting was held in March 1918, in the face of bitter opposition from the people of the community on account of the conscientious objector position of the members. In 1934 a minor division occurred when Earl Miller withdrew with eight or ten members to organize an independent congregation. In 1940 spring and fall communion services were conducted in the Berlin Church for the first time. In 1944 the group was organized as a separate congregation under the Ohio and Eastern A.M. Conference with Simon W. Sommer pastor and D. D. Miller of Martins Creek bishop. The 1953 membership was 157. In 2008 the membership was 275; Ernest Hershberger was the pastor.

Four acts use(d) this name: (1) heavy metal from Tokyo, Japan, (2) hard rock from Germany, (3) indie/alternative/power-pop band from the US and (4) Drum and Bass artist from the UK
(1) Reaction (Japan)
Reaction was a heavy metal band from Tokyo, Japan, which was formed back in 1983. It was counted among the important band from Kanto (East Japan, Tokyo-Yokohama area) metal movement, alongside heavy metal stalwarts Anthem and Sabbrabells. Kanto movement was seen as a rival movement to the Kansai (West Japan, Osaka-Kyoto-Kobe area) metal movement. They released 5 full length albums and 6 singles. The band had a number of singer changes, otherwise the members stayed the same through out their career. They had to split up in March 1989 after the singer left due to artistic differences.
(2) Reaction (Germany)
A "no compromise" hard rockin' trio. Claim's that Reaction were a reaction against British bands like Agnes Strange and Incredible Hog. This was hardly the case, as these bands issued their albums at the same time or after Reaction (1972 and 1975). However, the German trio was an equally loud and aggressive band, eager to surpass the blues-based guitar rock of Cream and Jimi Hendrix.
(3) Reaction (USA)
A indie/alternative/power-pop band from the US. You can find out more about them from http://www.myspace.com/reactionchicago. They got together in 1981 in Chicago.
(4) Reaction (UK)
Drum and Bass artist from the UK, Started writing music in 2008, visit www.myspace.com/reactiondrumandbass for music

The PMI is the professional body for people
working in the pensions sector. The PMI's members work as pensions
managers, consultants and technical specialists in consultancies
and insurance companies. Many are also actuaries, pensions lawyers
or company secretaries. Their experience is therefore wide ranging
and has contributed to the thinking expressed in this response.
As we understand it, GAD was set up to provide
independent technical advice on the financing of social security.
Over the years its role has expanded and it has become well known
as an organisation which produces technical advice and research
as well as acting as a consultant to a number of occupational
pension schemes. The GAD report gives details of all the work
being undertaken by the department so we do not intend to repeat
it in this evidence.
The Department is required to give impartial
and practical advice to Government, sometimes on matters affecting
occupational pension schemes. As a result of its work, the GAD
has a very good understanding of the occupational pensions world
and uses this in its work with regulators and Government Departments.
This has proved to be a great help to both sides.
In order to maintain their knowledge and to
give their opinions credibly, the GAD should be able to carry
out traditional work such as pension scheme valuations so that
they maintain contact with the industry and see at first hand
the problems faced by occupational pension schemes.
When consultation documents are issued by Ministers
or Government Departments it is noticeable, from time to time,
that input has been provided by the Government Actuary's Department.
The input is of a high standard and can be wide ranging. If Government
Departments did not have access to the expertise in the GAD we
wonder how they would be able to source this information.
The GAD also undertakes a number of surveys
and reviews including an occupational pension scheme survey and
a Quinquennial Review of the National Insurance fund. Both these
publications are widely used by technical departments of companies
and firms.
In recent years we are aware that GAD has helped
the Government set up the regulatory system, including OPRA and
FSA. In addition, we understand that it has also provided actuarial
input on cases being considered by both regulators and the Pensions
Ombudsman. This has proved to be a cost-effective way of providing
the information required.
The Government Actuary is a well-known and highly
regarded speaker at conferences and seminars. He willingly undertakes
engagements not only at prestigious national conferences but also
at events throughout the country as well as overseas. He is able
to draw upon a wealth of information within GAD to provide independent
and thought-provoking talks. We know that his presence at such
events is greatly appreciated.
The availability of a highly respected Government
Actuary backed up by an experienced and dedicated team in GAD
has, we believe, proved invaluable to the Government, Government
Departments and all of us who work in the pensions field. We believe
that there is a role for it going forward. Indeed, it is difficult
to see how a Government and its Departments could operate as effectively
without a Government Actuary's Department.

You need a good sense of toilet humor to enjoy this themed restaurant!
Benjo is probably not going to get a Michelin star anytime soon, but the restaurant itself, or anybody who frequents this place, obviously doesn't give a poop.
Concept restaurants are a recent trend worldwide, and dining experiences have become about more than just the quality of the food, service and atmosphere. Diners, younger ones especially, are flocking to these new entertaining spots more for the atmosphere than the food, as seen by this immensely popular Taiwanese restaurant that finds itself always ... occupied!
Customers come here for the interior, atmosphere, theme, and most of all, for the laughs. The concept of Benjo is "Toilet." Yes, you read that correctly. Benjo actually means toilet, too. The owner of this classy restaurant turned his concept into reality by designing the entire restaurant after everything bathroom, but really mostly just poop. As you can see in the shocking photos, the table is glass over a bathroom sink, the seats are like actual toilets, the curry is served in a toilet bowl, and so is the chocolate softie for dessert. The napkins resemble a roll of toilet paper to wipe the curry off your mouth. It's hilarious and gross at the same time. It's literally all poop!
What is a restaurant inspector for the Taiwanese Health Department supposed to do? How do you evaluate the hygiene of a restaurant like this?
Inspector: There's poop everywhere!
Manager: That's curry.
Inspector: ....
It's obviously the kind of place to get dressed up for, maybe to surprise your sweetheart for a celebration, or for a romantic anniversary date.
But make sure your date or lover has a sense of humor. Otherwise, you're sure to get dumped!

The Cast of NCIS: Before They Were StarsChristine Orlando at . Comments
With NCIS Season 12 set to premiere on Tuesday, September 23, fans of the show feel as though they know both the characters and actors well.
And it makes sense: Some of them have been turning up in our living rooms for over a decade via this CBS drama alone.
But cast members enjoyed unique and interesting careers long before they joined up for NCIS. From small roles on soap operas to iconic roles we'll never forget, below we take a look at where we saw our favorite NCIS actors before they were the stars we know today.
Ready to go back in time? Some of these roles may surprise you...
Don't forget, you can watch NCIS online any time right here at TV Fanatic.

Monday Morning Movie Club: Let's Discuss Six Key Aspects of Real Steel
For example: Isn't it time to retire the rope-a-dope as match-winning strategy? And why has it taken this long to see a robot do the robot dance?
Hugh Jackman's robot boxing movie Real Steel made $27.3 million this past week. (We were not the only ones looking forward to it!) And as one would expect of a feel-good movie about robot boxing, there is a lot to discuss. Herewith, six Real Steel talking points.
6. Random bits of Real Steel we've seen before.
• Zeus's head was modeled after Darth Vader.
• People accidentally flying down dangerous/fun mudslides was a regular feature of eighties movies (see: The Goonies, Honey I Shrunk the Kids, Romancing the Stone). Hats off to Real Steel for bringing the slide back.
• The Matrix's influence understandably looms large over action movies, computer movies, and alternate-reality movies. But why do homages to the horrible group rave scene from The Martix Reloaded keep appearing? In Real Steel, the only thing the underground robot boxing club was missing was Neo and Trinity having serious and meaningful sex in the corner.
• Rise of Planet of the Apes gave us Gorilla vs. Helicopter. Real Steel gives us Bull vs. Robot. Here's hoping for more Animal vs. Machinery moments so long as — in a stark reversal from real life — the animals always win.

Puzzle Cube (aka Void Cube) from Lanlantoys is the latest addition to my puzzle collection and was invented by Katsuhiko Okamoto.
Void Cube is a 3D mechanical puzzle similar to a Rubik's Cube, with the notable difference being that the center cubes are missing. The three central axes used on the Rubik's Cube are also absent, creating holes straight through the cube on all three axes. Due to the restricted volume of the puzzle it employs an entirely different structural mechanism from a regular Rubik's Cube. Happy Puzzling!

Ancaster Weatherbed rectangle lamp with inset and black douppion silk lampshade, braided cable, complementary antique brass fittings and an embedded mason's mark of authentication.
Free Shipping to UK mainland
The striking contrast of stone choice on this lamp base highlights the drama you can achieve with natural stone. Ian's priority when designing is to draw attention to the material with deceptively simple design. Stone is an incredibly tactile material and should be equally pleasing to the touch and to the eye.
Each block of British stone is specially selected then the pieces are hand-worked separately before being bonded together creating prominent shadows. The lamps are painstakingly hand finished by our stonemasons in Staffordshire, ensuring the absolute finest quality of craftsmanship. The finished stone is hand-honed and sealed giving a surprisingly warm feel.
We have paid close attention to detail, finishing the lamp with a braided cable, complementary antique brass fittings and our mason's mark of authentication, a solid bronze coin, set into the back of the base.
Subtle variations in the stone and the fabric of the handmade, bespoke, silk shades guarantee that every lamp is unique.
Ancaster Weatherbed is an interesting Jurassic limestone quarried in Lincolnshire, with an attractive regular showing of fossils and shells.
It's very fine grained with a beautiful warm beige base and blue/brown variations and has been used for sculptures by Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore.
Woven from an incredibly luxurious all-natural silk, our lampshades are painstakingly rolled and neatly tucked for a delicately unique finish. The silk shades are produced to display some natural slubbing, adding to their character.
We go to great lengths to combine the subtle variations of each stone with the finish of each lampshade to give the completed lamp a subtle and carefully considered character of its own.
We have paid close attention to detail, finishing the lamp with a braided cable, complementary antique brass fittings and our mason's mark of authentication—a solid bronze coin—set into the back of the base.
We are able to offer a lower price to clients wishing to purchase five or more lamps, in any combination of designs and stone. Please contact us to discuss your requirements in more detail.

Do not store in the refrigerator or freezer as fondant may sweat when removed. Soft accents will need to be stored in an airtight container until you are ready to use them.
Fondant will last a very long time if stored properly. But over time, it will become fragile and color may fade.
Please note that fondant will dry a bit before shipping. Applying these decorations to your cake will not be like purchasing a fondant cake at a local bakery. Pieces often times may not bend around edges of rounded or other curved shaped cakes. I do not guarantee pieces to remain soft enough to contour to a round cake.
Our tree slices are real wood, cut by us, dried naturally and left untreated.
They are real, natural wood and may have natural imperfections, or perfections as we see them, such as Knots, rings, dark spots, etc... that occur naturally. These features give the slices character and do not interfere with their functionality.
Slices are untreated, food safe hardwood slices so as they dry, they will eventually crack. Shipping to warm dry climates may expedite this process.
Slices may shrink up to 1/2 inch as they continue to dry .
Our quotes are valid for 90 days.

Lowell Folk Festival
Downtown Lowell (Gorham St.)
Lowell, MA 01850
Date: July 26-28
The Lowell Folk Festival is kind of a big deal. Most of downtown Lowell will be closed off to car traffic during the (hopefully) warm weekend of July 26th through the 28th, as some of folk music's best and biggest names descend upon the city to treat its folkie fanatics to three days of passionate songwriting, melodic musicianship and inspired lyricism.

AMP Birthday Bash
Boston City Hall Plaza

Boston's newest hit music station is celebrating their first birthday with a free concert on City Hall Plaza. Chart-topping artists scheduled to perform at the Birthday Bash include Jason Derulo and Boston's own Sammy Adams as well as special performances by Selena Gomez and Ariana Grande. The entire 103.3 AMP Radio line-up of personalities will be on had to host.
Salem Jazz And Soul Festival
Salem Willows
167 Fort Ave.
Salem, MA 01970
Date: Aug. 17-18
Shifting musical gears a bit, the city of Salem decides to cool things down a bit for its summer concert series, offering up a weekend of super chill jazz and soul from both local and regional acts. Acts scheduled to appear for this August weekend event include the Brooklyn-based funk act Turkuaz, the Salem High School Jazz Band and the North Shore Jazz Project All Stars, all of whom share one common denominator: the desire to represent some cool musical chops while simultaneously setting off some smooth soul for some of Salem's most in-the-know cats. This event comes heartily recommended for a summer evening's change of pace.

Arts On The Arcade
Faneuil Hall Marketplace
1 Faneuil Hall Square
Boston, MA 02109
(617) 723-9109

Arts on the Arcade is something of a weekly Wednesday tradition in the city of Boston, a joyous celebration of artistic and cultural diversity throughout the neighborhoods, where visitors can spend an afternoon (11 a.m. to 3 p.m.) enjoying music, food and other visual/performing arts while strolling through the historic Faneuil and City Hall areas of the city. While entertainment and performers differ on an ever-rotating schedule of availability, the free-form nature of Arts on the Arcade is something that keeps both locals and visitors coming back every week to see what's new.
Caliente: A Celebration Of Latin Music
City Hall Plaza
1 City Hall Square
Boston, MA 02201
(617) 635-4000
Date: July 18
There's nothing like a free night of smokin' Latin tunes to make the hot summer nights seem even more sweltering. The city of Boston knows just the sort of party to throw in order to truly get the musical blood boiling 'round City Hall. Caliente is a yearly celebration of Latin music and culture, which has seen some big time headliners hitting the City Plaza stage in the past, including Willie Colon and Jerry Rivera. This year's festivities promise even more hot-blooded Latin music goodness for the city's ardent music lovers, keeping in line with an established tradition of fun, good times and great music.
George Pacheco has been writing professionally about arts and entertainment for over a decade. A graduate of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, George currently resides in a humble New England home with his wife, cat and massive music and film collection.

Press Release
April 30, 2012
Contact: David Neustadt 212-709-1691
Department of Financial Services Foreclosure Prevention Specialists Available to Meet Homeowners in Middletown and Monticello
Benjamin M. Lawsky, Superintendent of Financial Services, today announced that Department of Financial Services mortgage foreclosure prevention specialists will meet with homeowners already in foreclosure and those at risk of foreclosure this week at locations in Orange and Sullivan Counties.
The foreclosure prevention specialists will be available from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. at these locations:
Thursday, May 3 – 201 Dolson Ave., Middletown, Orange County
Friday, May 4 -- Thompson Town Hall, 4052 Rt. 42 in Monticello, Sullivan County
"Governor Cuomo believes that it's essential that we provide as much help as possible to financially-troubled homeowners. Our objective is to provide direct help to homeowners and get the word out to others that it's important to ask for help as quickly as possible. The longer a homeowner waits, the harder it may be to save a home," Superintendent Lawsky said.
Senator John J. Bonacic said: "When a mortgage foreclosure starts, it can sometimes be resolved without forcing the homeowner to leave. Particularly in this economy, a bank does not want to become a landlord and generally wants to do all it reasonably can to reduce the possibility of foreclosure. The service being offered here can arm homeowners at risk of foreclosure and already in foreclosure with information they can utilize to hopefully keep their home. It is free, confidential, and worthwhile for those in need,"
Foreclosure prevention specialists will meet with homeowners to assess where they are in the pre-foreclosure or foreclosure process and provide:
- Information to homeowners about specific loan modification programs which may be available to them;
- Guidance to homeowners on how they can file complaints with the Department so that cases of lender or mortgage servicer abuses, such as predatory lending practices, can be investigated.
The foreclosure prevention specialists will meet with homeowners inside the Department's Mobile Command Center, a 36-foot long vehicle. Homeowners should bring with them any documents relevant to their individual situations, such as records of mortgage payments or letters to them from lenders or mortgage servicers.
Homeowners may also file complaints using the Department website, www.dfs.ny.gov. Also, information may be obtained by calling the Department's toll-free foreclosure hotline, 1-800-269-0990 or 518-457-1654, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Superintendent Lawsky urged homeowners to be wary of mortgage rescue scams, which may be marketed by private businesses.
"Beware of anyone who asks for an upfront fee in exchange for getting you a loan modification, saving your home from default or stopping a foreclosure or tax sale. New York law prohibits the collection of such fees in most cases. Also, many not-for-profit housing counselors will help you negotiate with your lender for free," Superintendent Lawsky said.
"Beware of anyone who says they can save your home if you sign or transfer the deed to your house over to them so you can catch up on your mortgage payments or refinance your loan. Never submit your mortgage payments to anyone other than your mortgage company without its approval."
The Department plans on sending foreclosure prevention specialists to assist homeowners at sites across the state, particularly where there are high concentrations of homeowners in or at risk of foreclosure. The Department's foreclosure prevention initiative was launched in February and has visited numerous locations as part of its citizen outreach effort.

"The quality of your relationships directly
affects the quality of your life.
Relationships are what keeps us together
or drives us apart."
- Dieter Pauwels
Q: Dieter, you're a certified professional personal life coach. Can you tell me a little bit more about professional coaching and your coaching practice?
A: Rather than give you an abstract definition of what coaching is, the bottom line is that people work with a life coach to improve areas in their lives that they are not completely satisfied with, or because they want to achieve a higher quality of life.
Whether someone wants a more rewarding relationship, to control their weight, to find a more exciting career, or create more business success, a qualified life coach can provide the support, guidance, and the means to create the changes they want in their lives.
I think we all find ourselves at certain moments in our lives and careers needing additional support, encouragement, direction, and guidance in order to get from where we are to where we want to go. Life coaching can provide that.
My focus is on life coaching and business career coaching because they are very closely related. As a coach, it's difficult to work with a client without looking at what he or she does for a living. It's all about people. It's all about relationships. The quality of your relationships directly affects the quality of your life. Relationships are what keeps us together or drives us apart.
Q: How do we go about building quality relationships?
A: The fundamental principle for building strong and long lasting relationships starts with the relationship you have with yourself. How you feel about yourself affects every aspect of your life. Self esteem is the key to success and failure.
I've seen many people trying to live up to some sort of idealized self-image so they can fit in, feel validated, or live up to the expectations of others. For many, this leads to inner turmoil, addictive behavior, depression, anxiety and stress.
Stress coaching is probably one of the fastest growing niche markets within the coaching industry. A skillful coach helps clients create clarity about what it is they really want. When people get very clear about their individual 'criteria', meaning the things that are really important to them, they are more likely to create a fulfilling and satisfying life.
Q: Is a life coach like a consultant or therapist?
A: For sure, there are certain similarities, yet they are very different in their approach, methodology and outcome. Life coaching is not for people with severe emotional or psychological problems.
Working with a life coach is not a substitute for psychotherapy. While therapy goes in-depth about various issues, typically dealing with the past, life coaching is more action-oriented and focuses primarily on the present and a specific future outcome or desired result. A consultant operates more from an expert frame model, leaving the client with minimum responsibility for the actual outcome.
Even though I have over 25 years of accumulated experience in sales, marketing, coaching and self development, it is my coaching client who is the expert on his or her life.
We all have the answers within ourselves, yet we're sometimes afraid or don't know how to ask the right questions. I usually don't get too involved in the story of the conversation; my focus is on the underlying issues, such as erroneous beliefs, unconscious rigid habits and self-limiting thoughts and behaviors that keep people from achieving the results they really want.
The Matrix
You might remember the dialogue in the movie "The Matrix," between Morpheus and Neo, in which Morpheus explains the Matrix and says: "The Matrix is everywhere, it's all around us. It is the world that has been pulled down over your eyes to blind you from the truth." I think this is a great metaphor for the way we tend to live our lives.
We have internalized habitual patterns of thoughts and behavior based on past experiences and social conditioning that run our lives. We accept them as "the way it is." We get stuck in one perspective and past experiences keep reproducing in the present. My goal as a professional life coach is to help my clients see the truth of their own situation.
Life coaches often illuminates powerful new options and choices that clients didn't even realize were available. As a result of coaching, people develop new competencies strategies and skills to create the results they want.
Q: What types of clients do you attract?
A: The people who work with me are men and women from all backgrounds and income levels. But they all have one thing in common— they all seek change. Some are CEOs, some are professionals— such as chiropractors, attorneys, interior designers, network marketing professionals, and even artists.
I also work with sales and service professionals, such as insurance agents, mortgage and real estate brokers and consultants. Another growing niche in my client base is homemakers and single parents looking to make a change in their lives; they seek to create a better work life balance and a healthier life style.
Q: What types of issues do you help your clients with?
A: The issues I deal with are as varied as life itself. Everyone is unique, everyone has their own story. Some issues evolve around stress management, navigating uncertainty, career transitions, or time management. I regularly find myself developing my clients' self confidence, communication skills, etc. I also use many coaching skills to replace negative erroneous self-fulfilling beliefs that keep people from achieving their goals and dreams.
Q: Why do you think life coaching is becoming so popular?
A: Life coaching has been very popular in Europe and has developed more significantly in the US during the last decade, particularly in the business environment. There is more uncertainty in the workplace than ever before and our family structures are much more fragmented. People are looking for new support systems because the traditional means of support are breaking down. More people are waking up to the fact that we need to get back to what really matters, what really will have an impact on their sense of safety, security, and well-being.
Increasingly people are starting to reevaluate their life's direction and purpose. This re-evaluation is happening at an individual level and at an organizational level as well. Companies are realizing the importance of working with their employees to create great work cultures that stimulate, motivate, and inspire people to be the best they can be. Life coaching is about (re) connecting with what's really important in your life and taking ownership and responsibility for your own life; it's about creating positive change from within.
Many of the business people I work with are sales professionals. These are people who are willing to invest time, money and energy to experience a higher level of sales success. Again, many times business coaching blurs into life coaching because you cannot separate your work from the rest of your life.
Q: Can someone at work be your manager and coach at the same time?
A: I don't think so. We are talking about different skills and different objectives. Most managers are too busy to incorporate coaching into their existing workload. And even if they could, they are not likely to be completely objective and without hidden agendas.
Also, I don't believe employees will be forthcoming with some of the issues or problems they are facing, because their manager is probably the one responsible for their job performance appraisal and bonuses. Therefore, trust and confidentiality are often a challenge.
Q: What can people expect from working with you as a coach? How does coaching work?
A: There is a lot of talking, thinking, listening, reflecting, feedback and yes…feeling. Since emotion drives human behavior, you cannot dismiss the emotional component in a successful coaching relationship.
My coaching programs are designed to empower and support individuals with the focus, learning, feedback and accountability in order to achieve consistent results in the most important areas of their lives.
The impact of coaching is something that must be experienced. It's difficult to put it into words. It's like telling someone what it looks like or feels like to fall in love.
Unless you have experienced it yourself, you can't clearly imagine what it might be like. I offer every potential coaching client an introductory coaching session, so people can see for themselves and decide for themselves how coaching will benefit them.
Each coaching relationship is unique in that it is designed to fit each person's particular needs, objectives, preferences and learning style. I always start with a two hour coaching orientation or intake session, during which we assess the main areas of his or her life at this moment (relationships, career, health, money, fun & recreation, spiritual growth, etc.)
We also discuss the main objective and primary focus they want to hold for coaching. After our intake session, we set up a regular coaching time and we meet or talk over the phone twice a month for one hour for the initial three months of coaching.
Q: How did you get into professional coaching?
A: I have always been interested in the field of psychology and human behavior. From reading self help books to attending self development and motivational seminars. Although my degree was in Business Management, my two favorite disciplines were philosophy and psychology.
During the past 10 years, I have had the opportunity to participate in mentor programs with leading coaching and motivational experts, including Jim Rohn, Tony Robbins and Bob Proctor.
I'm a Certified NLP coach from the Coaching and Training Institute of California and a professional coach member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), a leading organization that sets and monitors the international standards for professional coaching ethics, training and practices.
When I started my professional coaching and consulting business, my initial focus was on self development training and motivational-inspirational seminars, which I still do. When more and more people expressed their desire to work with me one-on-one, I started to incorporate individual life coaching and career coaching into my business.
Q: How much does life coaching cost?
A: My monthly coaching packages run anywhere from $150 to $400 per month depending on the time commitment and structure. About 95% of my coaching clients start with my three month Power Coaching program.
Q: How do you attract new coaching clients?
A:Most new clients come through referrals from my coaching clients, networking colleagues, friends or other life coaches. Other clients come from my workshops and training seminars.
I also run several Coaching Master Mind Groups. This past year, I have seen a steady increase of people contacting me through my website.
Q: What do you enjoy most about the work you do?
A: You already know that whatever you appreciate in your life, will appreciate. Whatever you don't appreciate will depreciate. I feel very fortunate to assist people in appreciating themselves more fully and helping them build a healthier self esteem, higher self confidence and more clarity, so they can create the results they want and experience more fulfillment and happiness.
Anne Frank wrote that "We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different, and yet the same." To be able to join people at least for a while, on that journey, is a gift for which I'm grateful.
Q: Do you have a secret formula for happiness?
A: I wouldn't define happiness as having lots of money, or finding true love, or a having a house at the beach or a penthouse downtown. I think that when you are able to really enjoy the work you do by using your talents and unique capabilities, be with the people you love, and feel that somehow you're making a contribution to something larger than yourself, you're well on your way to experiencing a high degree of happiness, success and fulfillment.
Q: Dieter, you've co-authored a new book with Deepak Chopra, Les Brown & Mark Victor Hansen, called "Success is a State of Mind." Your chapter talks about the power of beliefs. Can you tell us a little bit more about your contribution and where we can buy the book?
A: The title of my chapter in the book is called "Unleash the Power of Your Beliefs." It illustrates that the beliefs you hold about yourself, other people and the events that have shaped your life, have very important consequences for every aspect of your life; your career, your relationships, your financial success, even your health.
It outlines how to identify and change limiting or erroneous beliefs in order to create, achieve and attract the results you want. The book will be available online by visiting my website.
