Chosen: Fostering leads to new families
This piece was originally published in the North Georgia United Methodist Church's "Monday Morning in North Georgia" newsletter. It is reprinted here with the author's permission.
by Denise Peacock
I believe that one of God's most beautiful gifts to us is that of family. Each day in my work at The United Methodist Children's Home in Decatur, I am astounded by the families who allow God to touch their homes in unexpected ways by fostering children. Recently, I have had the joy of participating in the adoptions of four children by three of our incredible foster families.
Although we work diligently for our children to be reunited with their birth families, there are circumstances when this cannot happen. In these cases, the foster family caring for the child is given the opportunity to adopt that child. Almost always the families say yes, even when this was not what they had planned for their lives. As we know, sometimes God has a greater plan in mind.
In December, we celebrated with the Moore family and their four sons as they became family to 21-month-old Kage, who they had cared for since he was 3 months old!
On New Year's Eve, we celebrated with the Allison family as Riley Kate, 3-years-old, joined their family.
In January, we celebrated with the Mongeons as they became family to 4-year-old Destiny and 6-year-old Javon.
We rejoiced as we presented these children with Bibles engraved with their "new names." In each situation, there were many tears shed, but lots of hugging and laughing as well. We also rejoiced the Sunday following the adoption of Destiny and Javon as the entire congregation of Inman Park UMC celebrated when they were baptized by their "new" great-grandfather.
As I think of these events, I am moved by the recollections of feelings shared:
- a judge declaring, "This is the best part of my job."
- a child excitedly saying, "Now we all have the same last names!"
- a banner raised with the word CHOSEN for all to see
- a new father saying, "Loving this child has helped me to better understand how much God loves me."
- a new great-grandfather telling the children, "You are my tenth and eleventh great-grandchildren," clearly claiming these children as his own!
And I know that all of this has happened because the Moores, the Allisons, and the Mongeons answered "yes" when they heard of the need for foster families… when they felt called to care for children without knowing how short or long the kids' stay in their homes might be… when it became clear that a new forever family was needed. At each step, they said, "Yes."
As a professional in this field, I must remind myself and others that adoptions begin with a loss: A parent loses their child and a child loses their first parent. But out of this sadness, God gives us the opportunity to give the ultimate gifts of hope, love, home, and family to these little ones. And the joy seen and felt by those involved is absolutely awesome!
Every week the Children's Home must turn away over 20 children for whom we are able to provide care. This is mostly due to a shortage of foster homes — not enough people responding when God whispers, "Why not you?"
My prayer today is one of thanksgiving for all who have said "yes." I also pray for more yeses.
Maybe God is asking you to do this work. If so, I pray you will answer the call. There are children waiting.

This is her second tour of employment at the UMCH, where she originally went to work in 1971 on scholarship money provided by the United Methodist Women of St. Mark UMC!

Smith's time has ended as feature back [2:51 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports:
'While the Bills rushed for only 80 yards in New York, significantly they averaged 3.5 yards per carry. Even more prophetically, it appears there's been a switch at feature back. Against the Jets, Antowain Smith had only five carries for 13 yards, none in the final 28 minutes of the game. His place was taken by Shawn Bryson, last year's third-round draft choice, who had 12 carries for 40 yards and lost a 21-yard run on a procedure penalty that had nothing to do with the gain. Through three games, Smith has a microscopic 72 yards on 34 carries and you get the idea the coaching staff is growing weary of making excuses for him.'
Bills Riemersma may miss 4-to-5 weeks with knee injury [1:53 PM]
AP reports:
'Tight end Jay Riemersma, one of Buffalo's most consistent clutch receivers, is expected to miss 4-to-5 weeks recovering from a damaged left knee ligament, his agent Jack Wirth said. "If there's no complications, it's probably going to take 4-to-5 weeks," Wirth told The Associated Press on Monday evening after Riemersma underwent a Magnetic Resonance Imaging exam earlier in the day. The good news, Wirth said, is that it appears surgery will not be required to repair the medial collateral ligament, and that Riemersma can begin rehabbing immediately. However, Wirth added, "You never know how these things go."'
The last word [10:14 AM]
Toronto Sun reports:
'"I think we made mistakes in just about every area you can make mistakes in," [Special Teams Coach Ronnie] Jones said. "(The players) have got to do a better job, I've got to do a better job and we've got to get it done in a hurry."'
Collins to replace ailing Riemersma [9:11 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'Collins will replace tight end Jay Riemersma, who suffered a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee Sunday in the Bills' 27-14 loss to the New York Jets. The Bills won't know how severe Riemersma's injury is until they get the results of a magnetic resonance imaging exam, which could happen today. However, it is believed he will miss 4-6 weeks.'
Smith's days as go-to back should be over [9:10 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'With a bye week available to get him ready for Indianapolis, the guess here is that it is Bryson's time, that "running back by committee" may be over.'
Cap woes decimated special teams [9:09 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'Despite their obvious struggles, the Buffalo Bills will continue to use young, inexperienced players on special teams. Coach Wade Phillips said he has no choice. "They have to play," he said. "I think a lot of them are going to be good, so we've just got to keep going with them."'
Johnson loses a favorite target to injury [6:06 AM]
D and C reports:
'Tight end Jay Riemersma, one of the team's few reliable offensive threats, suffered a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee that will sideline him at least four weeks, general manager John Butler said.'
Maybe Bruce DeHaven wasn't the problem after all [6:05 AM]
D and C reports:
'I don't know how Polian could have prevented the special teams breakdown that cost the Bills last season's playoff game against Tennessee. I believe Phillips is doing a decent job (23-13 regular-season record) and I would describe Butler more as a life jacket than an anchor. The Bills had the NFL's second-best record in the 1990s and Polian left after the 1992 season, which means most of the current Bills came aboard under Butler's watch.'
Game Recap [10:37 PM]
Shout! reports:
'Did the Bills play the New York Jets on Sept. 17, or did they just play themselves in some intra-squad scrimmage? Apparently, it was an intra-squad scrimmage because most of the Bills said they beat themselves after the 27-14 loss in Giants Stadium to fall 2-1 on the year.'

Bills have bye week to digest ugly loss to Jets [9:04 PM]
AP reports:
'"We made mistakes, certainly," Phillips said. "We felt like we could've won the game. Certainly, we could have if we don't make the big mistakes that we made. ... You can't do those things and win. But those things are correctible, easily correctible in my opinion."'
Unbeaten Jets jump past Bills 27-14 [3:50 PM]
USA Today reports:
'For the first time since 1966, when a fellow named Namath was their quarterback, the New York Jets find themselves 3-0. :That's a long time to not be 3-0," Jets cornerback Marcus Coleman said with a grin Sunday shortly after his team dumped the previously unbeaten Buffalo Bills 27-14, a win in which Coleman was an unlikely hero. "But I'll tell you what. We're not going to stop at 3-0. We're going to keep this thing going."'
Blundering Bills bobble one away [1:38 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports:
'Come November, this is one of those games the Buffalo Bills will look back on with regret. The scoreboard at Giants Stadium on Sunday afternoon read: Jets 27, Bills 14. But Buffalo quarterback Rob Johnson didn't see it as a New York victory. "We feel we gave the game away," he said. "We didn't lose it."'
This win special for Jets, Coleman [1:37 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports:
'Jones, the Bills first-year special teams coach emphasized he's not one to make excuses. But he did have some explanations why his unit gave up a 97-yard kickoff return to Kevin Williams. "It's really a trickle down effect with special teams when you lose someone off the starting units," Jones said. "For instance, we lost Sam Rogers, so Corey Moore becomes a starter. Then he gets hurt. Now, you've got guys shuffling around playing different positions that they haven't taken reps at. "Because you're very limited on your numbers going into a game, so you're coaching guys on the run," he continued. "(On the touchdown return) it was a breakdown of one player that didn't read the return right. It's a return we worked on all week, there was nothing tricky about it. "Everyone came down and worked to the right, one guy worked to the left, there was a crease there, then a missed tackle or two and it's off to the races," Jones added.'
No blaming DeHaven for this Bills loss [1:34 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports:
'When the Buffalo Bills' special teams unraveled in last season's playoff game, low-lighted by the 'Music City Miracle' kickoff return that turned victory into defeat, there had to be a scapegoat. Sure enough, shortly afterward, DeHaven became the ex-Bills special teams coach. And when his replacement, Ronnie Jones, was hired, head coach Wade Phillips made it clear that he would be 'more involved' in that aspect of the game. Thank goodness. Imagine how badly the Bills would have lost on Sunday afternoon had he not had a hand in the not-so-special teams.'
You have to hand it to the Jets [9:12 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'Maybe it shouldn't have been, but it was an easy victory for the New York Jets over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. That's because the Bills made it easy. "We shot ourselves in the foot too many times," Bills safety Keion Carpenter said.'
Bills self-destruct in loss to Jets [9:12 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'As the Bills players looked around the locker room afterward, they were forced to admit one thing: We have found the enemy, and the enemy is us.'
Special teams coach on hot seat [9:11 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'Nobody has to tell Ronnie Jones what's coming this week. He knows. The Buffalo Bills' rookie special teams coach expects to be the target of criticism from the media and fans after his unit contributed greatly to the team's 27-14 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday. However, Jones claims he won't see or hear any of it. "No offense, but I don't read newspapers, which is probably a good thing this week," he said outside the Bills' locker room. "I don't listen to talk shows. I'm not a total idiot, so I know when we didn't do well." Saying the Bills didn't do well on special teams is putting it mildly. The kickoff coverage, ranked 29th in the NFL before Sunday, has been lousy since the preseason and it does not appear to be improving.'
Bills special teams are far less than ordinary [9:10 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'Before the Bills went to training camp, coach Wade Phillips said he intended "to become involved in the special teams." Wade wouldn't want to have his fingerprints discovered on this game.'
Injuries make a bad day worse [9:09 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'A bad day for the Buffalo Bills was made even worse as tight end Jay Riemersma and linebackers Corey Moore and John Holecek left Giants Stadium with potentially serious injuries.'
Monday billboard [9:08 AM]
Buffalo News reports:
'Big Picture: The Bills are out of first place in the AFC East, out of the undefeated ranks and, for 13 days, out of chances to redeem themselves for a shoddy performance in the Jersey Meadowlands.'
Coleman's leaping TD catch sparks 3-0 Jets [9:07 AM]
Asbury Park Press/Home News Tribune reports:
'It was as if the Jets' determined grab for their first 3-0 start in 34 years took on human form. There was cornerback Marcus Coleman, streaking out of the slot on the last play of the first half and out-leaping five Buffalo Bills defensive players to pull down Vinny Testaverde's 45-yard heave. It was a Keyshawn Johnson-type catch made by a fifth-year cornerback who now counts as many touchdown catches this season as the team's former receiving star. Though the Jets would get two John Hall field goals in the second half, it was Coleman's game-turning touchdown that lifted the Jets to their feel-good, 27-14 victory yesterday.'
A return Williams will never forget [9:06 AM]
Asbury Park Press/Home News Tribune reports:
'Last year, Kevin Williams was lying in a hospital bed. He wasn't wondering if he was going to play football again. He was worried that he was going to die.'
Smoke and mirrors, but still unbeaten
Asbury Park Press/Home News Tribune reports:
'The last time the Jets were 3-0, Star Trek was a hot new show on television and William Shatner was a slim young star with a full head of hair.'
'Disastrous' Bills fail their road test [7:22 AM]
D and C reports:
'"Well, obviously it was a disastrous game for us," coach Wade Phillips understated. "I don't think I've been in a game where we've made quite that many mistakes." Good thing, because Phillips' insides would be devoured by ulcers.'
Bills defense gives up another improbable play [7:21 AM]
D and C reports:
'Despite having seven men in the secondary, including three surrounding Coleman in the end zone, the Bills somehow allowed Coleman to catch the ball which provided the Jets a 21-14 lead at the intermission.'
Riemersma injury may be serious [7:21 AM]
D and C reports:
'Riemersma, who was off to a hot start, suffered what could be a long-term injury to his left knee early in yesterday's 27-14 loss to the New York Jets. He will have an MRI today and his status will be updated.'
Special teams are one big joke [7:20 AM]
D and C reports:
'Buffalo Bills special teams coach Ronnie Jones says he doesn't read the newspapers or listen to the call-in shows. Smart man, that Mr. Jones. Because today's nationwide analysis of his work during his brief time in Western New York would leave him wishing he got into a safer, less visible line of work. Like mortician. Wait. He's already working with a bunch of stiffs. After yesterday's 27-14 loss to the New York Jets, though, I've got a real good hunch Bruce DeHaven will be reading and listening. And gloating. It's only right.'
Bills-Jets game notes [7:19 AM]
D and C reports:
'No shows...Bills special teams: Horrendous. Pathetic. Pitiful. Pick a word and it fits for this group. There isn't enough space in this newspaper to chronicle the foul-ups the Bills had in the kicking game, so if you didn't see the game, take our word for it. Bad coverage, turnovers, penalties, a blocked field goal, forgetting to go on the field, it all happened. And amazingly, this came against the Jets, a team that also has been terrible on special teams this season.'

Rat Rod Pickup Truck Soap Box Derby Car
I designed and built this rat rod for our local Derby. It's all made out of Wood except the axles, accessories and hardware. It has a flat black finish and a stained wood bed. I got Best Looking Car in 2 different Derbys. I donated the car so other kids could get in the derby if they don't have the money, skill or time. For myself it's more fun to build it than race it.

If the tank has feet that are more than just dimples in the sheet metal, a pad isn't necessary. Therefore, you wouldn't need to place a water heater with feet on a pad to begin with. That being said, if you try it the weight will sink the feet right through the pad. And if it's gas, it will melt the foam (seen it on an old style gas water heater).

So, these Whiskey Stones were designed by Andrew Hellman—a fan of the single malt scotch—but not a diluted one. The cubes are made from soapstone (milled in Perkinsville, Vermont, the oldest soapstone shop in the US) so all you have to do is pop them in the freezer for a few hours, plunk a few in your drink, let them clink around for a few minutes, and slowly consume. The soapstone is soft so it won't scratch the glass and it can retain it's chilled temperature for a long period of time. They come nine to a set. You can find them a lot of places online for around $20 and we saw them at Red Tree too.—JED

Yeah, I wanted Foles and still do, it's early but I think he can play. If not Foles, run the year with Sanchez.
1) He already knows the offense; Marty was his OC, so it would put us light years ahead with a new OC
2) Despite what Philly said last week that they weren't trading him, they now say (per profootballtalk) that it will take a significant offer (i.e. they are willing to trade him.)
3) Completion percentage 61% as a rookie, it will only go up
4) Already has a couple of 300+ yard games under his belt
5) Kansas City cannot match the trade bait that the Jets have (i.e. Revis, or if we are lucky, Cromartie, instead.)
6) His contract is so cap-friendly it is like a get-out-of-jail free card
This would make us instantly relevant as we head into the offseason.
Yeah, I wanted Foles and still do, it's early but I think he can play. If not Foles, run the year with Sanchez.
How can you say his completion % will only go up, you have no way of knowing that. And the main reason Philly will and should want to keep him is 6) his contract is a rookie contract and very cap friendly plus he's insurance if Vick gets injured again which he's prone to.
Cro for Foles + 3rd or 4th
I get that giving up a pro bowl DB for a second year QB may sound like to much but if Mornhinweg green lights it, we don't have to look for a project in the draft, we have our QB for the future. Means:
1. we can grab that OLB at #1
2. solidify the line with some picks/veterans
3 Draft a RB for depth
4 since we will prob not be able to re-sign landry, we resign bell on the cheap and then fill in the rest of the S position with some picks and some vets.
5 re-sign Bray and maybe use a late pick on some WR
If this were to go down, our team would be in a pretty good position to make the playoffs, I mean remember we were still in it late this past year and if we had a QB that wasn't broken and had we beat the titans we would have def been in the playoffs.
sorry for the ramble but I agree IF Morninweg gives the endorsement we should def look into it Foles
enough about trades... please..... If foles was so darn good, they would have dumped Vick....
Not saying the kid doesn't have future..
we need to focus on the DRAFT... sign a veteran qb (ie. matt moore) and or draft a young qb.. team has so many needs......
He was drafted in the 3rd round, so by Philly saying it will take a significant offer probably means they are looking for a 2nd and 3rd.
It is funny how a lot of people want to trade for other teams young QBs (Cousins, Foles) who were drafted in the 3rd and 4th rounds last year, when the Jets could just draft their own guy and not over pay another team. No one around here was clamoring for either guy (Foles, Cousins) before the draft last year, yet now they are the answer to be the franchise QB. There are prospects available this year who are being viewed exactly like Foles and Cousins were last year.
Foles would be a good acquisition. A young guy with talent and knowledge of the scheme. Issue is, the Eagles say they won't trade him without a significant offer - so he won't come cheap.
A cheaper alternative (in trade terms) could be Brandon Weeden. The new regime in Cleveland doesn't seem too keen on him, so he might be obtainable for as low as a 4th or 5th rounder. I'd do that, plus draft a guy in the 2nd or 3rd, if guys like Foles or Flynn prove too expensive.
If not Sanchez, the bottom line is do you want a stop gap, or an unproven draftee, forget these middle career gone nowhere crap qb's. Should they spend a lil for someone that has shown a lot of positives and is young if they can, I say yes, but it is going to be Sanchez this year, most likely.
He doesn't fit the system.
The point wasnt why Philly should trade him, it was why should the Jets over pay for a guy like Foles when they can just draft their own "Foles" or "Cousins" this year in the draft. Neither guy was a highly touted prospect coming out of college, they each had their faults, but they went to teams with offensive minded head coaches and were put in situations where they could succeed.
LOL...Who are Foles and Cousins exactly?? Who anointed them franchise QB status already? You act like they are proven solid QBs in the league. The point, that you obviously missed, was that why should the Jets over pay for an unproven QB when there are guys available this year that are the same type of prospects.
All I'm saying is if Morninhenweg says he can be a great QB then maybe we look at it, they need secondary we have an excess, my whole idea is based on a guy who has worked with the kid, the guy already has a year in our O-coordinators offense, he has the tools, didn't look to bad behind a line that was worse than ours. Just saying he should be considered a possibility
Foles gets rid of the ball fast and makes decisions quickly. At 6'.6" he sees the entire field. Takes care of the ball. He is a polished version of Mike Glennon. I would love to see this guy fight for the starting QB job for the Jets.
I partially agree that it doesn't make sense to trade for unproven commodities which we can pick up on our own, but because last year's QB draft class was so deep and top heavy, those third round picks are considered steals, whereas this year's third round QB picks are considered reaches.
There is no doubt that last year's mid round QBs showed better pro potential than this year's mid round QBs.
I mean, we've got people clamoring for Geno freaking Smith in the top 10 OVERALL this year...........
Thats pure hind sight. Who was saying that the Eagles stole Foles in the 3rd, or that Cousins was such a great value in the 4th right after the draft? Hell no one even talked about Wilson when he was drafted. Those guys were far from being considered legit franchise QBs when drafted.
Cro + Tebow for Foles & 3 or 4?
Takes care of two problems and we get a draft pick?
Kelly replaces a non mobile QB with Jesus and a DB to replace the other cromartie and Nnamdi who is being reported will be released.
Actually, the only thing that's hindsight is how incredible Russell Wilson was, which is why I didn't mention him.
When Washington picked Kirk, there were many of us saying that they stole a QB for incredible value. I didn't have much invested in Foles to be able to claim that I knew he was good value, but my cousins are eagles fans, and they loved that pick.
Regardless of that though, it's common sense to know that when you have a high supply of talent, the value will be watered down, so those QBs who got picked in the 3rd and 4th last year would probably go earlier in this draft, the way people are talking about Geno Smith in the top 10, or the way our very own Chad Pennington was a first round pick in '00.
Tell me, where would Geno's play of this year put him if he had declared last year?

Bare-bones collection management with Granthaalok: The Book-Library Manager
Although public libraries, university libraries, and other large lending institutions typically have fairly sophisticated software to manage their collections, there are smaller entities like churches, nonprofits, and even individuals who could use an electronic hand when it comes to keeping track of their holdings. Granthaalok: The Book-Library Manager aims to provide a simple solution for the user who needs a way to keep track of what gets checked in and out and by whom. Unfortunately, the program's unattractive interface and generally unintuitive functioning make it hard to recommend.

Our Dilemma:Students and Postdocs Look to the Future; W. Sue Shafer | ||
09/01/1996 | ||
What is the problem? Hi All, What gives? I am well into a PhD program and feel it is too late to quit (molecular genetics, end of second year). If I quit, my resume is the pits, but my fear is being stuck in post-docs and never finding a job. I am writing in terms of a science PhD, so if you have experience or more material to read....I am not looking for a pep talk, I want opinions and advice. Right now I feel like I should stay in but broaden my horizons with more computer experience since my degree will be somewhat limited: molecular biology. Her post is one of many. Her message has haunted me as I help the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, where I work, to continue to support high quality research training in the biomedical sciences. Is the problem unique to people entering research careers? First, Morris R. Shechtman, President of the Shechtman Group and author of Working Without a Net: Surviving and Thriving in a High Risk World (Prentice Hall, 1994), contended in a recent talk that the growth of information technology and the rapid changes in its availability have produced a new and highly unstable world. In the old scenario, you got a job and stuck with it until you retired. The future holds the prospect of a series of jobs or careers. While security was external in the past (your job), it must be internal in the future (your skills). Shechtman's point is that, in the business world of the future, competition will be increased, margins and profits decreased, and innovation will have a short shelf life. Technical skills will be constantly evolving. Thus, the employee of value to any organization is a person with people skills, good skills in resolving problems, a strategy for offense, and good networks. These are people who know where they want to go and how to get there. Second, a book entitled JobShift: How to Prosper in a Workplace without Jobs by William Bridges (Addison Wesley, 1994) was reviewed by Jay H. Hartley on the YSN Digest, Number 1938, February 7, 1996. With his permission, I have quoted the following excerpts from his review. Bridges wrote the best-sellers Transitions (Addison Wesley, 1980) and Managing Transitions (Addison Wesley, 1991), and when not authoring has been a management guru for a couple decades. The main thesis of his latest book is that our country, and indeed our world, is currently in the midst of the Second Great Job Shift. The first was caused by the Industrial Revolution, when people transitioned from village life to urbania. Along with this shift came a redefinition of the very meaning of the word, job. In the village, it meant a task or project, generally of finite duration and paid fee-for-service if paid at all.... In the Industrial Age, a job was actually a position in the hierarchy of a company, with a clearly-defined set of responsibilities and paid a salary. As long as one stayed properly within the confines of the job description, one could count on advancement up the organizational structure. The current Second Great Job Shift, according to Bridges, is the Death of the Job, at least as it has been defined for the past two hundred years. As has been mentioned...the downsizing of corporate America has truly eliminated jobs, and in Bridges' vision this is a permanent, fundamental change, not a temporary layoff caused by economic downturn....individuals need to take on the mentality of the independent contractor/vendor constantly trying to address the company's needs instead of just doing your job ....His suggestion for governments is that they stop focusing on trying to produce jobs and instead try to encourage new business....Money should be spent giving people the skills needed to be business people - literacy, computeracy, basic accounting, marketing - and then the support needed to start small businesses, instead of job training for a job that won't exist by the time the program is completed.... How do we translate these two views into meaningful advice for individuals considering research careers and for pre- and postdoctoral scientists? We need to educate applicants for our Ph.D. programs about the likelihood that they will find an academic position at the end of their training. Other possible outcomes and career paths need to be clearly on the table. We must acknowledge that students and postdocs are learning the most important skills, the basics: how to solve problems; how to recognize and frame meaningful, testable questions; how to develop new technical skills; and how to find good collaborators. If they continue in academic research careers, they will be shaping scientific progress. But if newly trained scientists do not get the academic job they desire or choose not to pursue this path, they must be prepared to transfer their scientific skills to an ever broadening array of opportunities. Fields such as law, financial analysis, risk assessment, journalism, or marketing are increasingly in need of scientific talent and expertise. Who is responsible? What is being done? Although our primary purpose is the training of new, independent NIH-supported investigators, we strongly support the recommendations of Dr. Griffith's Committee that graduate programs should explain and endorse the diversity of career options in scientific fields, including biomedicine. The enthusiasm of students is sustained by the prospect of reasonable job opportunities, and the vitality of scientific fields increasingly depends on the work of well-trained Ph.D. recipients who enter non-traditional (i.e., non-academic) positions. All students should therefore be provided with information about such jobs. Dr. Varmus went on to say: Currently, Science's Next Wave, a web site published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and Science magazine, is presenting an interactive discussion forum entitled "The Situation of Post-Docs." The forum began on August 2, 1996 and will remain interactive until October 4, 1996. The forum, which deals with the postdoc experience from a variety of different points of view can be found online. Science's Next Wave strongly encourages all members of the scientific community to read the presentations and enter the exchange of ideas. There are more and more career resources available to students and postdocs. Academic institutions and professional societies are sponsoring career programs to examine the many career options available to scientists with advanced research degrees. For example, at the upcoming ASCB annual meeting, a career luncheon entitled "What to do with your Graduate Degree?" is being co-sponsored by the WICB and Education Committees. The list below includes several of the many publications that were created to provide educational and career guidance to students and postdocs:
-W. Sue Shafer, Chair, Women in Cell Biology Committee and Associate Director, National Institute of General Medical Sciences, NIH *At the time of Puffenbarger's post, April, 1995, it was not clear whether these budgets would increase.

Celebrating the Tenth Anniversary of the WICB Career Recognition Awards; Elizabeth Taparowsky and Laura Williams | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
04/01/1996 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Women in Cell Biology (WICB) will present their annual Career Recognition Awards at the 6th International Congress on Cell Biology & 36th American Society for Cell Biology Annual Meeting in 1996. These awards have been presented each year for the last ten years—with the exception of 1988—to outstanding cell biologists whose scientific achievements and mentoring activities are deserving of peer recognition by all members of the Society (see end of article). The Career Recognition Awards were established by the WICB in 1986. The original idea for the awards came from Kathryn Vogel and Pat Calarco, then WICB Chair and Vice-chair, respectively. In presenting the Career Recognition Awards, the WICB took an active role in focusing national attention on outstanding women scientists. As recalled by Pat Calarco, "we wanted to bestow some much-needed recognition on highly talented, effective, and deserving women. In those days—even in ASCB—women were rarely recognized. They were not major players on the Program Committee or Council; they did not comprise a significant population of the invited speakers, but they were ever more in evidence as contributing scientists in this arena." Both a Junior and Senior Award were conceived in order to promote and recognize women cell biologists on two levels. The Junior Award, as described by Kathryn Vogel, was designed to "give a boost to the career of a promising young woman scientist" with the added intent of "raising the visibility of that woman within the Society". The Senior Award, Vogel continues, was designed as a "thank you" for what the recipient has done for woman scientists —"recognition of a history of being supportive of women scientists." The first Junior Award was given to Mary Beckerle in 1986. Beckerle was contacted recently and asked how receiving the award has affected her career. She related that the award was a "vote of confidence in my abilities as a scientist." Having just moved to the University of Utah as an Assistant Professor in 1986, Beckerle reflected with amusement that receipt of the Junior Award gave her hope that she would "ultimately unpack all of those boxes and do experiments again!" Beckerle's scientific career has continued to flourish since she was recognized by the WICB in 1986. A profile of her career appeared in the June, 1994 ASCB Newsletter. She has assumed a leadership role in the ASCB, serving as Co-Chair of the Committee on Scientific Meetings in 1994, as an Associate Editor of Molecular Biology of the Cell, on the Nominating Committee in 1996, and as a newly elected member of the ASCB Council. The first Senior Award was bestowed upon Mary Clutter, who was involved in the formation of the WICB in the 1970's and who has continued to support women in science through her leadership role at the National Science Foundation. When asked for reflections on her award, she recalled how pleased she was to receive it in 1986 and assured us that she still has the plaque! Every year, selecting one person to receive each award from among the many qualified nominees is difficult. For this reason, the group periodically considers the possible repercussions of the award competition on the careers of young women who are nominated for—but do not receive—the Junior Award. For those not selected, is there a negative impact on their advancement? While this is difficult to determine, the WICB Committee believes that the nomination process itself may be beneficial to a woman's career by solidifying in the mind of a supervisor or a department chair the overall contributions made by the nominee to the field of cell biology. Although only two women are recognized each year, the attention focused on these two women by articles appearing in the ASCB Newsletter, their campus papers, and other media publicizes the contributions of women to the scientific endeavor. Recognition by the scientific community, and the nation as a whole, of the contribution of women to science continues to be an important goal of the WICB Committee. Since 1986, we have witnessed a growth of representation by women in all facets of the ASCB. The WICB believe that their annual awards program, as well as their other activities, have played a crucial part in these advances. Over the years, the awards have continued essentially unchanged. The WICB views the awards as a valuable tradition that should be continued. The call for nominations and eligibility guidelines for this year's WICB Career Recognition Awards appears in this issue of the ASCB newsletter (see below). The WICB urges you to submit nominations by the August 1, 1996 deadline. We are looking forward to bestowing the tenth anniversary Career Recognition Awards upon highly deserving cell biologists at the 1996 Congress & Meeting. Call and Guidelines for the WICB Career Recognition Awards The Senior Award will be given to a woman or man whose outstanding scientific achievements are coupled with a long-standing record of supporting women in science and mentoring both men and women in scientific careers. The Senior Award is reserved for an established scientist (i.e. full professor or equivalent). Nominations should include the curriculum vitae of the nominee and a minimum of one letter of recommendation. Please send nominations by August 1, 1996 to Dorothy Doyle at the ASCB National Office, 9650 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD, 20814. This year's recipients will be invited to accept their awards at the 6th International Congress on Cell Biology & 36th American Society for Cell Biology Annual Meeting in San Francisco, December 7-11, 1996.
WICB Sponsors "Career Issues in Cell Biology" Luncheon at Annual Meeting; Elizabeth Taparowsky | ||
03/01/1996 | ||
Among the activities sponsored by the ASCB Women in Cell Biology Committee during the Thirty-fifth Annual Meeting of the ASCB was a luncheon focused on "Career Issues in Cell Biology." The luncheon was organized by WICB Committee members Sally Amero, Beth Burnside, and B.J. Taparowsky and was held on Monday, December 11. Nearly 400 meeting registrants attended this inaugural event. WICB was prompted to organize this luncheon by the concerns of many ASCB members regarding the uncertainty of establishing or maintaining a scientific career in the face of shrinking research dollars and a highly competitive job market. This luncheon provided an opportunity for cell biologists to meet and to discuss issues of particular importance to them in small roundtable groups of 10 per table. The discussion at each table was moderated by an individual whose life experience provided participants with a source of information and advice on a particular topic. The discussion topics for the luncheon were selected to appeal to cell biologists in training (e.g., "how to get a good post-doctoral position" or "job application strategies"), to scientists establishing their careers (e.g., "getting tenure" or "developing collaborations"), and to seasoned professionals (e.g., "balancing service with productivity" or "dual career families"). Topics addressing nontraditional career options for cell biologists included "part-time positions," "careers in scientific writing and publishing," and "how to change careers." The popularity of these topics underscores the burgeoning trend to apply a degree in basic science to a broader career path. Perhaps the most important topic discussed at the luncheon was "career planning." All men and women of science must give serious thought to career planning so that they are able to seize exciting career opportunities when presented. This ability will be based, in part, on the knowledge and experience one has accumulated through formal training, carefully selected voluntary service, and professional contacts. Society leadership embraced the "Career Issues in Cell Biology" luncheon—WICB was honored by the presence of five past ASCB presidents at the event: Betty Hay, Marilyn Farquhar, Mary Lou Pardue, Susan Gerbi and Ursula Goodenough and the president-elect for 1996-1997, Mina Bissell—all of whom graciously served as discussion leaders for various topics. The positive response to the luncheon format from the ASCB membership spurred WICB Committee Chair Sue Shafer to put plans in motion for a second annual luncheon to be held during the 6th International Congress on Cell Biology/36th ASCB Annual Meeting in San Francisco, December 7-11, 1996. The 1996 luncheon, entitled "What to Do with Your Graduate Degree," will include several of the more popular topics from the 1995 program. Additional topics such as "marketing yourself in a global economy" and "international communication" may especially appeal to cell biologists from abroad who attend the meeting. WICB invites all ASCB members and meeting attendees to participate in the 1996 luncheon. All those interested in attending the luncheon must preregister on the Congress & Meeting pre-registration form. On-site registration will not be available due to scheduling constraints and the need for advanced planning. The official program announcement and advance registration details for the luncheon are in the Call for Abstracts for the 1996 Congress & Meeting. "..., I want to let you know that I have also heard nothing but praise for the WICB lunch. The organization was extraordinary. Toward the end of the period, the folks at my table continued to explore other more personal issues relating to women working in science, exchanging stories and recommendations with one another. This discussion was particularly enjoyable and instructive due to the presence of two older women who were quite interested to tell of their own experiences and to inquire about situations today that either encourage or pose problems for women in science. Finally, we reluctantly tore ourselves away from the table around 2:30, all feeling very satisfied with and inspired by the gathering." "Thanks for your heroic efforts in organizing this event. From my point of view it was a huge success!" "I think these discussions were simply a GREAT IDEA, and I believe they would be useful on a regular basis. In addition to vehicles like luncheon discussions, maybe the ASCB (not only the WICB) could run Newsletter articles, and invite members to send in questions. Times are very tough these days, and mentorship towards career development is increasingly important. It seems a perfect issue for a professional society to tackle." "Our discussion was very lively and interesting — everyone participated, and we all enjoyed it and gained new insights from it." |

The Cruelty of Republican States in One Chart
Many people are talking today about this article in today's New York Times, which focuses on the particularly cruel doughnut hole created when the Supreme Court allowed states to opt out of the expansion of Medicaid in the Affordable Care Act. The problem is that if you live in a (mostly Southern) state run by Republicans, you have to be desperately poor to qualify for Medicaid under existing rules. But it isn't until you get to 133 percent of the poverty level ($31,321 in yearly income for a family of four) that you're eligible for subsidies to buy insurance on the exchanges, because when the law was written the idea was that everyone under that income would get Medicaid. When all those Southern states decided to refuse the Medicaid expansion in order to shake their fist at Barack Obama, they screwed over their own poor citizens. So millions of people will be caught in the middle: not poor enough to get Medicaid, but too poor to get subsidies on the exchanges. But when we say "not poor enough," what we're talking about is people who are, in fact, extremely poor. And you'll be shocked to learn that in those states, the poor are disproportionately black. Could that have anything to do with it? Heavens, no!
In any case, I thought it might be worthwhile to lay out in one handy chart how, state by state, this will affect people. Under pre-ACA law, each state sets its own eligibility level for Medicaid. In more liberal states, these levels are fairly high; for instance, Massachusetts gives Medicaid to families up to 133 percent of poverty, New York up to 150 percent, and Minnesota up to 215 percent. But in conservative states, the levels are far stingier; as someone in the Times article says, "You got to be almost dead before you can get Medicaid in Mississippi." In addition, in most states childless adults can't get Medicaid no matter how poor they are, but under the ACA it will no longer matter whether you have children. This is just one more way conservative states that forego the Medicaid expansion (for which the federal government is picking up almost the entire tab, by the way) are harming their own citizens.
On to our chart. One note: most states have different levels for working and non-working people; the levels are higher for those with jobs. I've used the figures for working families. The bars in red are the states that have rejected the Medicaid expansion, and as you can see, almost all of them are clustered at the lowest end of the eligibility spectrum. That means that the states where the Medicaid expansion would have done the most good for the most people are precisely those states where Republican governors and legislatures have told their poor citizens that they're out of luck.
When you look at these income eligibility levels, you see just how cruel the existing system is. For instance, in Alabama, you can't get Medicaid if your income exceeds 23 percent of the poverty level, or $4,500 for a family of three. Just think about that for a second. Do you think you could find a place to live, pay your bills, and feed your family on that income? But the state of Alabama says if you're that rich, you can afford to buy health insurance. In Texas, the state that will be depriving the most people of insurance by rejecting the expansion, only families under 25 percent of the poverty level, or $4,894 for a family of three, will be eligible for Medicaid. I'm guessing that's about what Rick Perry spends on boots every year.
It may be that in the next few years, many of those states will give in and accept the money, instead of making their poorest citizens the victims of their loathing for Barack Obama. Let's hope.
Some 50.4% of all children in the U.S. either receive Medicaid (41%) or are uninsured (9.4%) according to the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities report "Policy Basics: Introduction to Medicaid". We are too poor for most parents to afford medical insurance for their children.
About 36% of U.S. citizens (including children) are either uninsured (16%, or 50 million) or receive Medicaid (20% or 67 million). We are too poor as a nation for that minority to afford medical care.
"In the typical state, Medicaid eligibility is now limited to working parents with incomes at 61 percent of the poverty line [$11,913 for a family of three] and unemployed parents at 37 percent [$7,226 for a family of three] of the poverty line." says the report.
Childless adults (except if they are disabled) are not eligible for Medicaid no matter how poor they are. But children under six require "mandatory" Medicaid for incomes up to 133% of the poverty level, $25,975 in a three person family. After the child is between 7 and 18 the income level for mandatory coverage drops to 100% of poverty level. If one is poor, the first priority is to have a child, then find a job no matter how low the pay.
"In the poorest states, the federal government pays 73 percent of all Medicaid service costs; the national average is about 57 percent," the report states. It spent $414 billion in 2011.
Medicaid spends its money this way: 44% for blind and disabled, 20% for seniors, 21% for children, 15% for adults. $19,530 is the poverty level for a family of three in 48 states according to the HHS guidelines for 2013.
Start working at home with Google! Its by-far the best job Ive had. Last Wednesday I got a brand new BMW since getting a check for $6474. I began this 8-months ago and immediately was bringing home at least $77 per hour. Useful Reference Pow6.com
My economics blog is at http://benL8.blogspot.com, and I've just posted a letter-to-the-editor about Obamacare and Inequality on the blog. The CBPP report also stated that 93% of the expansion costs would be borne by the federal government until 2022. "And by greatly reducing the number of uninsured, the expansion will enable states and localities to save substantial sums on uncompensated care for the uninsured. " Not only will this increase the employment of the medical industry, it will save the states on "uncompensated costs". What a no-brainer!
Nothing will change until the voters in the Red states wake up to what the politicians they keep voting into office are doing to them. At least here in Pennsylvania we stand a good chance of getting rid of One-Term Tom Corporate as governor. But until we turn at least one house of the General Assembly Blue little will change here.
The Tea Party do not believe ANYBODY who is poor, REGARDLESS of how disabled, old, young, or otherwise disadvantaged he or she may be, deserves A PENNY of assistance unless another person decides to give help voluntarily as charity. NO EXCEPTIONS, which would bring back the street begging (which brings housing in the form of jail), Little Match Girl, workhouses, Dickensian environment which killed so many (including death by hanging for children stealing bread to eat). The same people who claim to believe that every life is precious to God are overeager for God to get them back as soon as possible if they cannot make themselves precious to the economy. The very same groups who deny that Darwin's principle of "survival of the fittest" (as MIS-understood by so many) describes the nonhuman natural world believe that it SHOULD apply in the human world.
To be fair, SOME of the Tealiban are HONEST about not believing in God, as their idol Ayn Rand did not, but too many are hypocrites who clothe their hate and heartlessness in phony Christian theology. Reference, among other scriptures, Matthew 25.
Start working at home with Google! It's by-far the best job I've had. Last Wednesday I got a brand new BMW since getting a check for $6474. I began this 8-months ago and immediately was bringing home at least $77 per hour. I work through this link, Pow6.com
The two most liberal red outliers, Maine and Wisconsin, are not classically "red." Wisconsin was pretty blue for a long time and that limit is a legacy of those days. Maine was once famously Republican but had gone Dem for several decades before recently going red again. Both states may well return to the red side.
AMEN! The only thing Texas can claim they're doing to help people is provide measly little jobs! California is the blue print we should follow. We're doing so well we're building bullet trains and stopping climate change. Let's hope the country follows California's stellar leadership and eradicates low wage jobs and promotes eco-diverse play ground equipment.

results in:
A patch in Joomla! is a bunch of bugfixes, and might or might not include security issues. The patch announcement will always tell if a patch has fixed security issues. A patch is a minor upgrade. From Joomla! 1.0.0 to Joomla! 1.0.7 is considered a patch. Going from Joomla! 1.0,x to Joomla! 1.5 will be a major upgrade and should be treated differently.
Wrapped in a wiki template, which also takes care of the "ambox info style", this can be reduced to:

text: Copy Baltimore July 13th 1863 Colonel, Having by order of the General in Chief been deprived of my command and placed in arrest for some supposed error or miscon- duct in connection with the evacuation of Winchester but supposing that my official report which showed plainly that I had obeyed orders punctually and performance my duty to the best of my ability, would disabuse the mind of the Genl. in Chief in relation to my conduct in that matter and cause him to order me to be restored to duty. But my arrest having expired by Limitation some two weeks ago and still receiving no order returning me to duty I must believe that blame still wrongfully attaches to me. I therefore respectfully demand a court of inquiry to have evidence pronounce upon my conduct in relation to said evacuation that I may be speedily restored to duty as this in action under the apparent censure of my government is most painful to me. I am Col. Very Respectfully You're most Obt. Svt R.H. Milroy Maj. General Lt. Col. Donn Piatt Chief of Staff AC
