Woman fights to keep her Glendale home initially seized for $68 debt

Capri Ramos refuses to believe she lost her home 13 years ago over a $68 dental bill.
She still lives there. She still pays the mortgage.
But a court ruling earlier this month may boot Ramos and her family from the tax-subsidized home she claims was taken without her knowledge.
It all started with baby-teeth cavities that landed Ramos' daughter in the dentist's chair in 1995. The $68 bill went unpaid.
"At that time, I was young, brand new married and kids, just bought a house and wasn't really aware of everything going on," said Ramos, now 41. "I had no idea that by not paying a dental bill, this man would get my house."
Capri Ramos and her 10-year-old daughter Tica Ramos sit in front of their Glendale home . Ramos has been involved in a protracted legal battle to retain ownership of the house. It was sold at a county sale after it was seized to pay a dental bill. (Jim Urquhart/The Salt Lake Tribune)The Salt Lake City collection agency North American Recovery sued Ramos in 1995 over the dental bill. Ramos, who says she did not realize how dire the consequences might be, did not contest the suit. The Salt Lake County sheriff's department was ordered to sell Ramos' real estate to pay off the debt, which had reached $958 with interest and added fees. Third District Judge Sheila McCleve oversaw the collection. A court spokeswoman said McCleve did not remember the case.
In 1994, Ramos had taken out a low-income homeowners loan from Salt Lake City to buy her Glendale split-level home for $51,000.
It sold two years later at the sheriff's auction for $1,550.
The home was transferred to Salt Lake City-based Jarmaccc Properties LLC, whose registered agent and manager is listed as attorney Ralph Petty. Court records indicate Ramos was served with notices of the sale, but Ramos claims she knew nothing of it until 1998.
"I tried to get a loan, and they said, 'You don't even own that house,'" Ramos said. "I was shocked. I had no idea."
It isn't clear why North American Recovery collected on the bill through Ramos' home. Most court documents on the dental debt have been destroyed in accordance with state court archive guidelines.
Ramos said she would have preferred to part with a less valuable asset. "I've always had vehicles," she said. "I've always had a job. They could have garnished my wages."
North American Recovery President David Saxton says Ramos' case runs counter to the agency's current procedure. It no longer pursues debts as small as $263, he said, and almost never uses real estate to recover a judgment. Of about 50,000 collections the agency handled in the last year, only one involved seizing a house, he said.
Another mystery festers in the city loan that paid for the house at 5 percent interest. The agreement forbids Ramos from selling, renting, leasing, or transferring the house to anyone else for 15 years, said Marion Barnhill, who oversees the city loan program. If those conditions aren't met, the house reverts to the city, the deed states.
The goal is to keep the city's investment in the hands of the low-income buyers for whom the loans are intended, Barnhill said. Had Ramos stopped making payments when the title transferred to Jarmaccc, the city would have foreclosed.
"We would not let it stay as a subsidized loan in the hands of an investor," Barnhill said.
The danger of trying to enforce the rules now, he said, is that it could mean evicting Ramos and her family from a home she has been paying off for 14 years - even if she no longer holds the title.
"If we were to act on that clause, [the borrower] would be the one harmed, not the guy who bought it," he said.
Petty, whose company holds the title, did not return phone calls seeking comment as to why Jarmaccc allowed Ramos to live in and make mortgage payments on the home.
When Ramos found out about Jarmaccc's claim on the property in 1998, a lawyer told her filing for bankruptcy could help her keep her house. Jarmaccc was listed as a creditor in the bankruptcy plan because, Ramos said, she believed Jarmaccc had covered her dental debt.
"She thought they were ... a creditor that had a lien against the home, not a creditor that owned the entire property," said Ryan James, an attorney representing Ramos.
Ramos paid $1,200 to Jarmaccc through the bankruptcy, which she says she filed only because of Jarmaccc's claim on the home. The plan carried the stipulation that Jarmaccc would have no claim to the house after the debt was paid.
Ramos' divorce from her first husband in 1999 named her the owner of the house. In the meantime, she continued to make mortgage payments to the city. It will be paid off next year, she said.
In 2004, Ramos sued Jarmaccc, claiming the bankruptcy plan returned the house to her and there were inaccuracies in the property description written on the sale notices.
Ramos won the case, but the Utah Court of Appeals returned the home to Jarmaccc this month after ruling Ramos should have filed her lawsuit by 2002 at the latest.
The city likely will take no legal action until Ramos exhausts her attempts in court, Barnhill said. Ramos' attorney, James Haskins, said his client now will seek help from the Utah Supreme Court.
Ramos says she intends to keep paying the mortgage.
"I still totally, totally oppose the thought that it's his house," she said. "There's no way this is his house. I have put everything into it - sweat to replace the tile floors. There's no way."
Meanwhile, Ramos has launched a career as a loan officer.
"I went to school last year to figure out how all that stuff works. I'm finding all kinds of little things out that, had I known back then ..." she said.
She continues to live in the house with her second husband and two youngest children, 3 and 10.
"I spent more money than I ever thought I would, selling jewelry, selling everything ... for attorney's fees," Ramos said. "All I have is this house."

Glad I don't work for that "man"....
Glad I'm not taking his phone calls today...
Speaking of the devil.
He's irking me.
He asks for the tenants current state as far as payments. I give him the update. The tenant argues the point. I get drug in. APPARENTLY the boss had given the tenants a 'deal' or made an 'agreement' WITHOUT telling me about four months ago. He always changes things on me without telling me, mainly he changes the amount for rent on different properties and never tells me.
Kind of essential to tell the accountant on that subject I'd think. Apparently they are allowed to pay twice a month and have it be considered "on time" and apparently all late fees are waived.
Grr.So now I have adjust/backtrack the ledger to make the payments correct (every secretaries nightmare = backtracking in hopes they recorded things -very- well).
I look and feel stupid in front of these tenants simply because the boss neglected to tell me some valuable info. Grr. I already look stupid when he won't take his calls or call back and clients think its MY fault that I didn't get the message to him.
P.S. Earlier today I had the opportunity of stealing about $130 from the boss today. Well, mainly the tenant, but still. The tenant didn't write who the check was for....
He had about $900 with no owner of the check...but knowing me I'd only take about $130 of it and the tenant has a payment credit so he wouldn't even know anyway.... sigh..
But I did not steal from either the tenant or the boss.
But it was very tempting. No lie.

text: So I have ten years part time in the west coast pension, and on the peer84 plan. If I decide to go full time how does that work? As of now I can retire at 52 part time and already have 15,300 annual benefit because I work 35 hours a week pt. So if I'm full-time and in the peer80 program do I get to retire at 50?? Or does it average out. I started at 20 years old. If i have to start a new pension I'll probably just stay part time as I make ok money. I don't think that's the case tho. A few people I know went full time after 15+ years and are still paying into the same pension. They have the same questions as me.


text: hi So I had the quick mtg. with-the school pyschologist today and the education evaluator. They were going over the testing they did on difficult child with-me. It was exactly what I thought which was i'm sooo not getting an iep or 504 for her. The pysch evaluation was a joke. It was a series of questions asked to difficult child by a man in which she does not even know, asking i'm my happiest when...... and blank. They were all fill in questions, it totalled 2 paragraphs. difficult child came home to me that day and said I lied to him, I wasn't telling him "my stuff!" the academic evaluation difficult child fell within normal range on it all. They did the wisk. I knew this would happen. Yet difficult child failed the math assessment test just a mos or so ago. So, the school psychologist had the nerve to say to me "i'm relieved that she tested so well, at least now we know what or who the problem is, you. Mother's and daughte'rs can have very intense relationships hence she is displaying these behaviors only infront of you. In other words I'm the problem, i just dont' know how to handle my kid! There was more said yet i can't remember exact words. So, the ppl they questioned my ex who does not believe anything is wrong with-difficult child, the teacher who suggested i give her herbs and there is nothing wrong with her exact quote she is not bipolar! and me. So, everyone else's percentages were quite low, yet mine were quite high. So, i'm feeling deflated, cried on my way home because i knew that this would happen. They have been battling providing difficult child with-services since day 1. Now it will happen. So, my friend said based on my extensive private testing stating all her diagnosis's in tons of doctor's and evaluations and neuropsychologist i have to fight to get them to see that. Yet to them their testing comes first. She told me if their results come back the way they did you are going to have a rough time getting her services and an iep or 504 for that matter. I've contacted several ppl at work to help me, no one can. WE have team meeting on friday so i'm going in alone. me, and 7 school staff all of which will be saying difficult child doesnt' qualify. Than next september will come, she will crash, and i'll have to begin the process all over again.

It is believed that sodium or salt can cause high blood pressure and also increases the risk of heart and kidney disease. But, in reality sodium controls the biological process and keeps us healthy if consumed in moderation. Sodium is a mineral which keeps the body's fluid in balance. Sodium plays a crucial role in the various functions of our body.
Sodium occurs naturally in some foods. It is extensively present in table salt, celery, milk, processed foods and beets. In today's article, we at Boldsky are listing out a few functions of sodium in your body. Read on to know more about it.
Heart Function: An imbalance of sodium could affect the function of heart and can lead to severe problems. With the imbalance of sodium, heart contractions become abnormal which increases the risk of heart attacks.
Nerve Function: Sodium assists proper nerve functioning by regulating nerve impulses. Lack of sodium in the body hinders nerve communication. Sodium deficiency can also cause muscle cramps.
Regulates Blood Pressure: Sodium maintains fluid balance in the body and regulates blood pressure.
Regulates Glucose: Our body requires sodium to regulate glucose in the body. Sodium binds the glucose and helps it to enter into the bloodstream easily.
Aids in digestion: Consuming salt in your diet also helps in digestion and promotes proper kidney functioning. It also helps to retain nutrients in the body.

For the past six years, I've been working on my first novel, Peninsula. The book tells the story of three friends who come of age in the Pacific Northwest at the dawn of the Second World War.
Connected by a passion for the outdoors, the friends find themselves separated by the crush of history as the limits of their friendship are put to the test. In three distinct voices, Peninsula follows each of these characters during a distinct stage of of their lives.
The first friend, telling his story in his mid-twenties, is a web of contradictions. He's a wrestler, ardent atheist, jazz fan, and unapologetic womanizer who takes a controversial stand as a conscientious objector, eventually serving in a unit of smokejumping firefighters during the war.
The story then shifts to a second friend as he experiences the comforts and unease of middle age. An introspective attorney and conservationist, Frank reluctantly looks back upon his service in the Tenth Mountain Division–an elite unit of skiers and mountaineers who fought in Italy–and the troubled legacy this experience has left him.
In the novel's final section we get to know Karen, age 84: a feisty grandmother and community activist who reflects on the tightly-guarded secrets that entangled the lives of these three individuals and forced them to confront the sacrifices that love demands.
Set amid the lush rain forests and glaciated peaks of the Pacific Northwest, the novel unfolds an epic story of friendship forged in the mountains and tested by war. Interspersed throughout the narrative are snippets of myths, legends, and odd tales that infuse the book with a pervasive sense of place, a map of the twisting roots of human presence in a landscape.
Peninsula is a book that blurs the line between history and fiction while exploring our compulsive need to tell stories.

that stimulating entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial behaviour calls
for a wider partnership; one that goes beyond their own collaboration.
Together with the Ministry of Economic Affairs, through the Leren
Ondernemen initiative, and corporate partners including ABN AMRO,
PricewaterhouseCoopers and Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, the three
universities are investing €8 million over the coming four years to
strengthen and expand education in entrepreneurship.
The students of today will be the entrepreneurs of the future, but it is today's companies that are already putting entrepreneurship into practice. The ultimate success of HOPE depends on, and will be greatly enhanced by, the active contribution of the business world. Leveraging the experience and expertise of today's entrepreneurs will enable academic staff to introduce students to ever more challenging educational activities. It will help students to develop the insight to identify business opportunities and the skills to take advantage of them.

The suspect, believed to be in his mid-20s to early 30s, spent nearly 10 minutes at the booth Saturday before making off with the 18 karat gold necklace with a half carat of diamonds in the shape of a heart, an official said.
DAYTONA BEACH -- An unknown man took his time looking at jewelry at the Daytona Flea & Farmers Market before he found something he liked.
Now, authorities are seeking the public's help in identifying the man who stole the $7,000 necklace from Oscar's Estate Jewelry, an official said.
The suspect, believed to be in his mid-20s to early 30s, spent nearly 10 minutes at the booth Saturday before making off with the 18 karat gold necklace with a half carat of diamonds in the shape of a heart, Volusia County sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said in a statement released Tuesday. The man approached the counter at 11:51 a.m. and wasn't even there 30 seconds before he slid the case open a few inches.
Surveillance video footage shows him casually looking at other items in the case, scratching his arm and tapping his fingers on the glass case, pausing now and then to make sure he wasn't being watched.
Seven minutes after he initially approached the counter, the suspect slipped his hand into the case through the back and picked up the necklace, Davidson said.
Surveillance video shows the man looking at the necklace in his hands for a few seconds before looking around to see if the coast was clear. The suspect left the counter about 11:58 a.m.
The suspect is believed to be between 5 feet 8 inches and 5 feet 11 inches tall, Davidson said. The man is heavyset and has a "pronounced stomach." His brown hair is shaved close to his head and he has a beard but no mustache. The man can be seen in the video wearing a Chicago Bears T-shirt and baggy plaid shorts. He also has some tattoos on the underside of both his forearms.
The Sheriff's Office is asking for anyone with information to contact Investigator Richard Graves at 386-323-0151 or Crime Stoppers at 888-277- 8477 (TIPS). Tipsters can remain anonymous and qualify for a reward of up to $1,000 for useful information.

Have noticed an abundance of these being used, and they get frustrating. I am not claiming they are OP, just ridiculously effective. They work in many applications; camping a building, covering routes, throw in tall grass and catch grazers, lob into an area you know someone is hiding. I personally do not use them often, but on the few classes I do, it is more like a radar, with the ability to kill. Also good for flushing shy hiders out of a corner and into your view or wherever you want to make them move.
I have just heard a lot of people say they are OP, and I myself get heated when they are spread all over the map. I know you can run Sit-rep, but that is really the only application for it( that makes sense, and it might make taking up the space in perks viable) .
They are hard to see.
Not direction- more of a blast radius
I know they beep, but if well placed at all, it is to late.
Just wanted thoughts to see what people thought. Again I don't know if I would claim they are to powerful, more so annoying.
My biggest gripe is that Sitrep doesn't always show them....at least for me. I bet I die at least once every other match from an IED that didn't show up and that can be frustrating, haha.
As for 'using them for radar', I realize some people do this so I usually try to blow up the IED and flank. Then it becomes a fun game of cat and mouse.
Being as they are the ONLY explosive you can lay down, and as there is an EASY counter for them, they are FAR from OP'd. In fact I LOVE when enemies use them as I have used Sit Rep/Engineer/Hacker etc. in EVERY COD and it is AWESOME for finding campers and where the enemy like to hold down. There is nothing better than finding a room full of them and tossing both my IED's in the room on top of theirs, and hearing BEEP, BEEP BANG!
C4 can be placed, can't it?
I think they are annoying and cheap. They are hard to see. They can be thrown at you which is stupid. My guess is their counter is blast shield but does this work? Can you survive them with blast shield on?

Their counter is Sit Rep. One of the best perks in the game
Yea i know sit rep works for the ones that are already laying on the ground but about when they throw them at you when capping a flag. Does blast shield work for this?
yes you can survive them but it is still likely they will kill you I find that it depends on where you are in place to where the i.e.d is. I also agree with the statement that they are ridiculous in the fact that you can throw them at people. I think they are ridiculous cause you can throw them period. The I.E.D should be a placement weapon. You should have to stop and place the I.E.D. As for sitrep users I have been hearing a lot lately how they randomly stop showing up in the middle of matches I think that sitrep is just bugged cause I have noticed it on other equipment also.
If you don't even know how they work don't bother replying. Yes you can throw them at someone but they don't arm for 3-4 seconds so if you toss one as you die chances are you will spawn and it will disappear before it explodes. The blast radius could be taken down just a bit because they do get some ridiculous kills sometimes. I use them and I think the delay and sitrep make help even them out a bit. Also blast shield will protect you from a single blast if you are not injured or directly on top of it. For those that don't see them good, sitrep works but if you only ever look at eye level and below you will never see mine.
That's why if you die as you throw it, don't mash the X button. IED's continue to stay active until you respawn.

Lawton, OK | 7 News | April 22, 2013
LAWTON, OK- The Armed Services YMCA and 2013 Partner Member Campaign Chairman BG(R) Jim Cerrone are proud to announce the annual campaign has set a goal of $61,900.
The funds from this campaign allow us to continue providing programs and services to Soldiers and their families.
"In the Lawton-Fort Sill community, we love our Soldiers and we know the hardships incurred when young Soldiers with families deploy and redeploy to combat areas." Cerrone states, "While these young dads and moms keep our nation safe, the Armed Services YMCA provides support vital to the families."
"The Armed Services YMCA is the leading provider of social and support services for military families", states Bill Vaughan, ASYMCA executive director, "Through the generosity of donors, the ASYMCA Lawton Fort Sill has provided educational, recreational, social, and inspirational support services to military personnel and their children continuously since 1942".
The Armed Services YMCA continues to maintain an increase of more than 200 percent during each of the last four fiscal years which clearly demonstrates that need outpaces resources.
The families of our military's junior enlisted personnel carry multiple emotional and financial burdens while their loved ones are deployed overseas. When service members know their families are taken care of at home, they have peace of mind and can focus on their job of defending our country. The Armed Services YMCA plays a vital role in meeting the needs of the young military family.
The Armed Services YMCA Lawton Fort Sill is Oklahoma's leading nonprofit organization supporting junior enlisted personnel and their families. For more information, please call Kate Whitehead at the Armed Services YMCA, 580-355-5520.

Written by Anat Mooreville
The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, known as the JDC or the Joint, is an international Jewish philanthropic organization started after the First World War to assist Jewish refugees in Eastern Europe and Palestine. With records of activities in over ninety countries dating from 1914 to the present, the JDC Archives are a significant resource to understand not only American Jewish relief efforts abroad, but also Jewish social, cultural, political, and economic conditions around the world. For the Middle East, the JDC Archives include records created primarily between 1940-1977 from Aden, Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Tunisia, and Turkey. Middle East specialists will find this archive particularly useful for conducting research on Jewish history in the Middle East and North Africa in the second half of the twentieth century. The archive has two locations—Jerusalem and New York City.
The JDC Archives are located in two centers, one at the JDC's New York City headquarters and the other in Jerusalem in the Givat Sha'ul neighborhood. These centers are not equal in size and scope. The Jerusalem archive is the larger and more comprehensive of the two; in fact, all the records of the New York archive are available in Jerusalem in microfilm format.
The archive in Jerusalem houses the records of JDC field offices throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia, along with the records of JDC operations in Israel. The bulk of the Middle Eastern and North African records of the JDC are part of the Geneva Files (1945-1977), which were subsequently shipped to the JDC Archives in Jerusalem after the Geneva Office—opened in 1957 as the European headquarters of the organization—was closed in 1977.
Although this review focuses on the Jerusalem archives, I will briefly outline what is available in the New York collection. The New York archive houses American headquarters communications with governments, national and international agencies, and JDC field offices. The bulk of the archival record concerns relief, rescue and support activities in Europe between 1914 and 1945. Later materials concern JDC activities in the Displaced Persons (DP) camps of Germany, Austria, and Italy, and JDC activities in Eastern Europe during the Communist period. For the Middle East historian, the New York archives detail the medical, educational, vocational and relief activities in Palestine starting in 1914 through the Second World War. These include institutions established to help the disabled and orphans. A detailed list of these files are available online through the finding aids (search by country). They also contain information on refugee and aid activities in North Africa during the Second World War.
The JDC Archives includes over three miles of text documents, 100,000 photographs, a research library of more than 6,000 books, 1,100 audio recordings including oral histories, and a collection of 2,500 videos, covering 90 countries throughout the twentieth century. Many of the collections are arranged chronologically, others by subject or office of origin (e.g., Geneva, Rome, Istanbul). At the same time, the JDC is an active Jewish humanitarian assistance organization. All JDC historical records older than thirty-five years are open to the public with the exclusion of materials containing information that the JDC believes would adversely affect its ongoing work.
For the period following the founding of the State of Israel, the JDC Archives in Jerusalem contain files related to Malben (נֶחֱשָׁלִים בְּעוֹלִים לְטִפּוּל מוֹסְדוֹת "Institutions for the Care of Disabled Immigrants"), the social service organization created jointly by the JDC, the Jewish Agency, and the Israeli government in 1949. Malben provided institutional care and social services; established hospitals, clinics and old-age homes; trained nurses and rehabilitation workers; and fostered the development of private and public organizations in Israel for the care of the disabled. Files also document missions and programs to help settle Jews from North Africa and the Middle East in Israel. For example, the JDC organized Operation Magic Carpet, which evacuated about 48,000 Jews from Yemen to the newly established State of Israel and Operation Ezra and Nehemiah, which brought approximately 120,000 Iraqi Jews to Israel.
Records related to the Middle East and North Africa document the JDC's medical, educational, and vocational support in these regions from the late 1940s through the 1970s. These social efforts were wide-ranging and expansive. In North Africa, JDC initiated public health programs with OSE (Œuvre de secours aux enfants) to combat diseases such as tuberculosis and trachoma. The JDC frequently offered assistance to local Jewish educational organizations such as Ozar Hatorah and Alliance Israelite Universelle. Numerous country reports document local demographic, economic, political, and social conditions from the perspective of the JDC's staff.
The photography collection of the Middle East and North Africa is quite large and can be fully searched by title, description, date, subject, location, photographer, and other fields on the JDC Archives' online catalog. To see the range of photographs available, we recommend the galleries on Algeria in the 1960s, Tunisia in 1950s, and early Palestine.
A sampling of the range of materials available in the JDC archives include correspondence, committee and board meeting minutes, field reports from worldwide staff, financial statements; memoranda, lists of aid recipients and supplementary allocations, program descriptions, passenger lists, cables, supply lists, restitution laws and statutes, summaries of statistical reports, personnel files, legal files, case files, conference proceedings, lists of names, audits, brochures, press releases, pamphlets, and news clippings.
Research Experience
The JDC Archives is in the process of digitizing its collections. While the photo database is fully available online, other text resources are only partially available. The online catalog is a good place to begin your search, and some documents can be accessed through the website directly, but keep in mind it is in no way exhaustive, especially for Middle Eastern material. There is a very brief finding aid for the Geneva Office of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee 1945-1954 records, but it does not detail the Middle East/North Africa collection. The records of the Istanbul office (1943-47) or the Geneva office (1955-1978) are not available online. You can learn more about how to search the online database by viewing the archive's video tutorials or reading its guide. The JDC Archives staff has access to a more comprehensive online catalog that is password protected.
To access the full catalog of the JDC Archives in Jerusalem, one must first e-mail Shachar Beer to make an appointment to visit. Only one or two researchers are allowed at a time, as the archive is located in one of the working offices of the JDC. On your first visit, Mr. Beer will give you a stack of binders that contain the full catalog. Unfortunately, they are not arranged by country, and it is advisable to spend the first day examining all the binders for relevant material and noting the title and file code that you wish to order during subsequent visits. Researchers should note that since March 2013 the archive has been in the midst of reclassifying its files and consequently the code which appears on the physical file may differ from its new classification. You therefore may not be able to order material on your first day. Material can only be ordered once a day and is limited to five or six boxes (more if the material is microfilmed). These should be ordered in the morning or emailed to Mr. Beer before your visit. The time of retrieval of material is not routine, but it usually arrives from the warehouse before 11:00. Once requested, it usually takes about thirty minutes to an hour for material to be prepared for the researcher. One should also coordinate with Mr. Beer the time of arrival to the archives in the morning, which can be as early as 9:00 or as late as 11:00, depending on his schedule.
Since the JDC Archive in Jerusalem only accommodates one or two researchers per day, I would recommend allotting at least a few days for research to get the most of out of your scheduled visits. It takes some time to become familiar with the full holdings because they are not online, and one can only see a limited number of files per day.
There is one microfilm machine, as well as a spare office and a conference room in which Mr. Beer directs researchers to work with original files. The catalog does not indicate whether the file exists in microfilm or only as an original. Since the archives are in the office of a working NGO, it is mainly full of JDC staff, the archivist, and perhaps one other researcher.
In order to visit the archives, one must fill out an application located online. Once permission is received (usually less than a week), you need to email Mr. Beer to schedule an appointment.
Although the stated hours of the Jerusalem Archive are Sunday-Thursday 9:00-15:00, the actual hours depend on the appointment times scheduled with Mr. Beer. Generally, researchers may work at the archive until the JDC office closes around 16:00.
Reproduction services (photocopy and microfilm printing) are not available. You are allowed to use a digital camera to photograph files and microfilms. There is a one shekel fee for each photograph. Researchers tally their own photographs and report them to Mr. Beer at the end of each session. In some cases, Mr. Beer will waive the fee for photographs of microfilm material.
Transportation and Food
The archive is located in the industrial park neighborhood of Givat Sha'ul in West Jerusalem. It is not easily accessible from downtown Jerusalem. Buses 33 and 67 stop outside the archive, and it is about a ten minute walk from the Kiryat Moshe light rail station.
There are many chain restaurants and cafes in the archive building and nearby that cater to the business crowd. There is free coffee and tea in the archive itself. You can also bring your own lunch and eat it in the archive.
The JDC Archives offers a fellowship to conduct research in either the New York or Jerusalem Archives. Check the website for details and application.
Future Plans and Rumors
The archive is in the midst of digitizing its collection, so the state of the online catalog and available digitized files is constantly changing.

Resources and Links
The online catalog is sophisticated and contains 900,000 digitized pages. However, it is not complete, especially in regards to Middle Eastern and North African materials.
The archives website is quite expansive and details the history of the JDC, the archives, and contains various finding aids and resources on how to search the archive.
**Information about the history and holdings of the collection comes from the JDC Archives website.

skateboarding is how I knew freedom early on
January 11, 2017 in Offbeat
I love skating. As a child I use to roll down the driveway sitting on an old-school skateboard that's two years older than me. At the end of elementary I started skating street. Shortly after I begun two lifelong friends joined me in skating… we'd play damn near all the sports together but that's what we ended up doing most. We joined up with more niggas in middle then high school and had tons of fun from there. By the way school sucked but the freedom after that last bell ringed felt incredible.

Signs of a Broken Business Process
Top 10 Reasons for Broken Business Processes
We have learned many lessons over the past 20 years, but our primary lesson is this: about 70% of all enterprise opportunities are directly related to business process deficiencies. When leadership doesn't build robust processes and systems, it is very difficult to improve overall enterprise performance.
Process not defined.
Good business process management begins by first defining a process, its customer, supplier, inputs, outputs and conversion activities. Because processes spring up out of a need to solve a business problem, and then evolve toward a state of acceptance, most organizations do not have processes that are well designed and defined. We believe this definition is best accomplished using the Perigon Playbook. A Perigon Playbook is a robust, three-dimensional process map that provides a repository of all of the knowledge necessary to own, manage, and continuously improve a process. Those closest to the process and the subject matter experts most knowledgeable of the process should form the team that leads the map's development. An undefined process is a broken business process.
Process not owned.
Organizations are commonly managed vertically, where the organization chart lays out a hierarchical structure of cascading management responsibilities and accountabilities. The problem with this paradigm, of course, is that work gets done horizontally, through processes flowing across somewhat arbitrarily defined vertical boundaries. The effective management of work must include the individual ownership of business processes that cross these boundaries. A process not owned is a broken business process.
Process not understood.
A business process can be complex or simple, long or short, and produce one or many products or services. Regardless, a business process must have a worthy purpose to justify its existence. Without a worthy purpose, there exists a broken business process that is non-value added and should be eliminated. Even for the simplest process with a single output, the process must provide something that the customer values.
Process not followed.
One of the things we often see in organizations is what we call the "superhero" solution. Organizations mistakenly think they will overcome a lack of well-defined and standardized processes by hiring very talented, superhero employees who make up their own business process and overcome the many obstacles to solving problems. While this can work in very small organizations and for a short while, it leads to chaos, burnout, high costs and potentially dangerous and unnecessary risk to the enterprise. A superheroes will not overpower a broken business process in the long run.
Customer not understood.
Every business process serves a customer and should create something of value. While the customer receives the output of the process, process owners (if they even exist) rarely know the customers of their process, what those customers want from the process, what customers think of the value provided by the process, and to what extent the process meets customers' needs.
Supplier not understood.
Every business process is also served by a supplier. Just like the customer, most process owners do not know the supplier to their process, what the process needs from their supplier, what the supplier is capable of providing to the process, and to what extent the process needs are being served by their supplier.
Process is cumbersome to execute.
Because business processes frequently grow into existence without intentional purpose or design, they tend to meander across organizations through the development of "good ideas" that add extra steps, poorly designed tasks and additional work-around activities to accomplish what started out as a simple process requirement.
Loaded with non-value added work.
Value added tasks are tasks the customer would be willing to pay for. Limited value tasks are those that are questionable for the customer. All others are non-value added. We study the value added, limited-value added, and non-value added task ratio for every process we build. When processes have not been previously developed and analyzed, we typically find that the value added ratio is in the 5 to 20% range.
Performance not measured.
When organizations have front line measurements in place (and many don't), we find that they are oriented vertically toward the organization chart's definition of responsibility and accountability. They also tend to be reactive (and too late to adjust) versus predictive. Good process measurement captures both business process effectiveness (the extent to which the process satisfies the customer's need or want) and process efficiency (the extent to which the process uses the minimum possible resources to do so.) Best-in-class enterprise performance measurement is built from the ground up, beginning with process measures that align with system measures, which feed enterprise key performance indicators (KPI's).
Not linked to strategy.
We frequently hear the following from senior leadership, "We are committed to our strategy, but we can't get the organization to execute." We believe that strategy without strong business process is like a head without a body. Without having operational control of processes, it is nearly impossible to move the organization toward a vision of the future.

Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz is a long-time fan of many outdoor recreational activities. One activity in particular that Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz enjoys is rock climbing. Berkowitz acknowledges that many people think that rock climbing is an exclusive or extreme sport. However, Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz points out that there is, in fact, a great deal of scalability in rock climbing difficulty levels.
Rock climbing is an adventure pastime, says Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, that is accessible to all skill and adrenaline levels. According to Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, a person need not be in Olympic shape to rock climb. Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz says that most people start out rock climbing on boulders or indoor climbing walls. These venues give climbers a chance to explore their balance and physical limitations.
Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz is frequently called upon to provide tips and guidance to aspiring rock climbers. Before starting a climb, advises Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, it is important to adequately prepare for the day. Two simple and essential preparations, points out Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, are proper warm up and stretching exercises.
The last thing a rock climber needs or wants, notes Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, is a muscle cramp disrupting and endangering a climb. Warm up exercises and thorough stretching, says Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, ensure good blood flow and full range of motion. Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz advises doing 30 minutes of warm up exercises and stretches prior to rock climbing. Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz explains that 30 minutes is usually necessary in order to raise the heart rate.
Climbers should usually begin, says Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, by mastering short, low-altitude climbs wearing a support harness. Over time, Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz encourages climbers to reach for higher ground and to test their limits. A climber will never know what his or her actual limits are, says Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, until they try to exceed them.
These things are central factors, concludes Yochanan Jonathan Berkowitz, in having a successful and enjoyable climb.

A catchy new public service campaign has been released to give a lift to anyone feeling a little down or even depressed.
Launched by motivational speaker, songwriter and TV/Radio host Larissa Lam, I Feel Alive features a number of Asian American celebrities.
The campaign is meant to coincide with Suicide Prevention Month.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death among Asian Americans ages 15 to 34. Each year, 2,500 Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders die of suicide.
The PSA is quite catchy and features a nice tune written and performed by Lam.
It is worth both checking out and sharing.
AsAmNews is an all-volunteer effort of dedicated staff and interns. You can show your support by liking our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/asamnews, following us on Twitter, sharing our stories, interning or joining our staff.

Over the past few days, the Indians made a number of roster decisions; the trimming of the roster means that Opening Day is fast approaching. While the team that shows up in Cleveland on April 4 may look different by the time summer rolls around, we at least know who we'll see to start the season. There were some good moves and some bad ones; I figured I'd break down what I liked and didn't like with the moves thus far. The Indians also announced that Lonnie Chisenhall would start the season on the 15-day disabled list (wrist impingement) and won't be eligible to come off the DL until April 12. That means not a single person from the Tribe's outfield at the end of 2015, will open the season with the team. Michael Brantley had a slight setback in his shoulder recovery, now Chisenhall has an injury issue, and Abraham Almonte is suspended for 80 games due to his positive PED test. I'll take a look at the outfield and the rest of the positions as well.
3B/infield utility – Geovanny Urshela will start the season in Triple-A Columbus, while Juan Uribe is the starting third baseman. After Uribe signed late in the offseason, he was expected to start there; nothing about that is surprising. But there was a question as to whether or not Urshela would still make the roster in a part-time role. Jose Ramirez will be the utility infielder though, and will back up Uribe at third base.
Urshela had a pretty good spring and at least likely made this decision difficult. I think Urshela may have more upside than Ramirez in the long run, but I'm honestly unsure how he'd perform in a part-time role. While I'm sure he was sent to Columbus to ensure more playing time, he also has to contend with Yandy Diaz at third base in the minors. I'm not sure how the Indians will handle that – if they'll have them split time, if they'll try one of them out at a different position, or what.
Outfield – At one point this spring, I joked that after Michael Brantley, the Indians planned to comprise an entire outfield out of fourth outfielders. They had a number of people in camp on minor league deals (Shane Robinson, Robbie Grossman, Will Venable, Marlon Byrd), and a couple of marginal players they picked up during the offseason and added to the 40-man roster (like Joey Butler and Collin Cowgill). They also signed Rajai Davis to a one-year, $5.25 million deal (with incentives).
In addition to the small herd of outfielders in camp this spring, the Indians also gave a lot of playing time to 2012 first-round pick Tyler Naquin. And Naquin definitely made the most of that opportunity – so far this spring, he's hit .467 with three home runs. Plus he has some speed and a good arm in the outfield. While I know that you can't put a ton of stock in spring training statistics, the purpose of a good spring performance is to earn yourself a spot on the team. It's a fairly basic idea – you play better than the other people you're competing against, that means that you make the roster. In the past few years though, concerns about service time have popped up, meaning that young prospects are often held in the minors longer to stall their service time clock. (Like what happened last season with Francisco Lindor). While I understand the Indians' reasoning with Lindor, it's possible that with a full season of Lindor at shortstop in 2015 could've translated into several more wins. I was a little afraid that they may do this to Naquin, but they seemed less protective of him than they did with Lindor. In the end, Naquin earned a spot on the team.
I should add that I've never been that high on Naquin – even when he was drafted. He struck me as a Trevor Crowe-type of player; a very athletic fourth outfielder that probably won't hit enough to stay in the majors long-term. However, he's pleasantly surprised me at every level of the minors so far, surpassing my expectations for him. He deserves this chance, he's earned it, and I hope like crazy that he finds a way to prove me wrong this season on my assessment of him.
To round out the outfield (since Brantley and Chisenhall will both start the season on the DL) the Indians have told Cowgill and Byrd that they're going to make the roster, barring any kind of bizarre mishap. I guess that Jose Ramirez can play the outfield in a pinch, but that still makes me a bit nervous.
Bullpen – To me, there have been a few weird decisions with the bullpen this spring. Ryan was definitely right about Joba Chamberlain – this is not the hard-throwing Joba of around 2007-2010. While he had decent enough results this spring, he made me very nervous in the games that I watched him pitch. I couldn't put my finger on it, but I think it's because he's such a different pitcher at this point in his career. I often held my breath waiting for people to tee off on him, but they never really did. Hopefully his new approach works, and he's able to locate his pitches enough that it's not a huge issue in the end. Jeff Weaver isn't the same pitcher he used to be, yet he still finds ways to get people out; there's no reason to believe Joba can't do the same. I still think I'm going to end up with an uneasy feeling when I watch him run in from the bullpen.
Out of all of the left handers in camp, I preferred Joe Thatcher or Kyle Crockett. Thatcher had a great spring, and I was impressed by what I saw from him. However, the Indians ended up going with Ross Detwiler instead (and Crockett will start the season in Triple-A). I think the Indians hoped that Thatcher would accept an assignment to Triple-A, but he asked for his release. Detwiler is not the choice I would've made, but hopefully it will work out.
I was also fairly "meh" on Dan Otero when I saw him pitch this spring. I always had the impression that he was just a pitch or two away from everything falling apart on him. But I see the logic in going with someone like him over a young guy like Austin Adams. If you don't add Otero to the roster, he can opt out and then you lose him. If you add him to the roster, it's not that big of a deal to cut him later on. It's not like he has a huge contract you're hesitant to eat (like Nick Swisher, who was released by the Braves on Monday) or that he's a prospect out of options. So go with guys like that for now, and then cut them loose later if you have to. The Indians still have Tom Gorzelanny – he did not make the Opening Day roster, but he accepted an assignment to Columbus.
Starting rotation – The Indians already had much of the starting rotation figured out going into camp. Remember just a few years ago, when it was Justin Masterson and (??????) heading into camp? Corey Kluber will be the Opening Day starter against the Red Sox, and then you have Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar. It sounds as if Trevor Bauer will make the rotation; he looked fairly solid this spring. Bauer is an enigma that they can never seem to solve – he's so talented, but also very inconsistent. I imagine the fifth spot will likely go to Josh Tomlin (T.J. House was informed he would start at Triple-A) and I'm uncertain if Cody Anderson will work out of the bullpen, or be sent to Columbus. To be honest, the Indians don't even need a fifth starter right away, because they have so many off days in April. I don't think there will ever be a time where Josh Tomlin doesn't make me nervous, but hopefully he can replicate his late 2015 performance.
Those are some of the big decisions that were made in regards to the roster. In just one short week, the Indians will return to Cleveland to open the season (with a high temperature expected to be in the low-to-mid 30s!) Other than the outfield, and a few spots in the bullpen, there weren't a lot of competitions in camp this spring. With the signings of Rajai Davis, Mike Napoli, and Juan Uribe, the Indians provided some certainty for most of the position players. I'm still worried about the offense for 2016, but hopefully the pitching remains strong and the Indians manage to squeak by with enough runs.

Lets say your crush, or the girl you have feelings for is popular among the opposite sex. Every guy has a crush on her, or wants to get with her. Does that make you feel threatened, and bury your feelings for her?
Most Helpful Guy
Hm, usually I've backed down from heavy competition, but this was do to I suppose the girl not REALLY BEING worth it in my eyes.
But there is this one girl, completely worth it that I had, and lost and in our being apart she grew extremely popular. Didn't stop me from pursuing I just knew a change in tactic was needed.
I elevated my self to reach the level I believed her to be at. Also eliminated most of my competition through manipulation (this later backfired lol), by befriending each and every guy that wanted her and turned them against each other and slowly against her to where I was all that remained.
I swear it's not as eveil as it sounds. Lol. I surprised myself the lengths I was willing to go to get the girl. I got her again and almost her because what I had did got revealed eventually.
But just depends on how worthy the girl is in the guys eyes is what I'm getting at I guess.00|00|0
