Building on the most effective programs of Mission awareness and pastoral ministry and incorporating a shared response to God's grace, the University Mission and Ministry seeks to support the evolution of the university toward a Mission model where education and Mission are effectively integrated in UIW's vision of truly being a sacrament of the Incarnate Word. Through this focus on credibly representing the Word of God to the world through Mission and Ministry, UIW lives deeply the gospel inspired charism of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word and responds creatively to the most pressing human needs of our time.

Imagine you were framed again by prison gang officers using a tattoo you got as a child and a symbol in a birthday card to "validate" you as a "prison gang associate" and label you "worst of the worst" and placed in segregation in a Security Housing Unit, or SHU, for years on end. That is what happened to my childhood best friend and husband, Robbie Riva.
September 6, 2009
The right wing bullies at Fox News – Glenn Beck and his ilk – are going after a man known for years of progressive work in the Bay Area: Van Jones. Van's real crime? He's the triple threat: He's Black, he's effective and he is empowering the people in this country who have the least resources.

I like to think of it more as duelling, standing up one against the other each aspiring to be the victor. With their eye on the end of the battle prize where they can claim that special seat next to mum or that supped up matchbox car with the cool exhaust. As a parent you have a couple of options; retreat to the other end of the house, pretend they are the neighbours kids or give them some tactics to resolve those daily skirmishes by themselves. NO ADULTS REQUIRED.
The main goal of these daily battles for my 3 boys is a win-win solution.
I win – no retreating required. They win – fairness restored.
Here are some of my sanity tactics that I have devised for some the most annoying battles.
1. I Get Shotgun!
The throne next to the driver's seat, the most wanted seat in the world. Kids act as if they would instantly be knighted if only they could beat their siblings to this idolized seat. I guess they are really competing for the love and affection of the queen mum. But, you can't pick who gets the front seat, that would be deemed as picking a victor and you don't want to hear the bickering. So you get them to claim ownership. How?
One way trip – first to call shotgun gets it (i.e. school drop-off)
Round trip – first to call shotgun gets it on the way there, the other gets it on the way back. More than two kids, then two call outs.
2. That's My Toy!
It's the exhausting never ending, "That's my toy!" "No it's mine!" "Nu-huh!" There are a couple of tactics to handle this scenario;
· Write their name on every toy they get. Works great with matchbox cars.
· Just take it away, on the spot. No questions asked. They will probably forget the toy ever existed.
· Although this won't work for Lego's, it's just too many pieces to label or take away. I try to get them to barter, where a Lego man can be exchanged for a couple of swords. Sometime this diversion tactic works.3. Not My Cup!
We use to have abandoned cups all over the house. Of course they are nobody's, right? So nobody has to pick them up, right? Wrong. We now have cups that change names, so when you get a cup from the cupboard you change it to your name and voila (wah lah) it's yours. Nobody goes away.
So it's peaceful now, right. Wrong again. Siblings will always duel; it teaches them how to resolve conflict. They learn to compromise and cooperate with each other, a great life lesson for the workforce. Little SpongeBob's in the making.

Plowshares is a nonprofit organization that has been providing free hot meals and other services to the hungry and homeless since 1983 in Ukiah, California. Ukiah is located about two hours north of San Francisco on U.S. Highway 101. Plowshares relies almost entirely on local donations and the invaluable help of dedicated volunteers to run its Community Dining Room, Homeless Services, and Meals-on-Wheels programs with very little government funding.
Plowshares Community Dining Room serves a free hot meal every weekday evening, open to all, with no questions asked. Seniors and families with small children are served at a separate, early seating. Most of the food used in these meals is donated by local food producers and retailers, and most of the work is done by volunteers. Our Community Dining Room serves over 27,000 meals a year.
Learn more about our Services & Hours
Meals-on-Wheels provides hot nutritious meals to hundreds of disabled, homebound seniors in the Ukiah area. It also provides a daily social and welfare check-in for seniors who are often alone all day otherwise. Plowshares delivers about 24,000 Meals-on-Wheels annually. This program is partially funded by a grant from United Way.
Plowshares Homeless Services, free to the homeless only, include: laundry vouchers, use of a telephone, mailing address and message service; voicemailboxes, haircuts, socks, diapers, dog food, etc.; and resource/referral information and outreach services.
Plowshares Food-Service Job Training Certification Program, offered through the Regional Occupational Program, provides 525 hours of hands-on and classroom training in food preparation and safety. No experience is necessary; this program gives marginally employable persons professional training for getting and keeping a job in the food-service industry. On completion of the class, students receive a certificate of completion, job references as requested, and are prepared to take the industry-standard ServSafe certification test.
Plowshares Food Share Program allows us to share surplus donated food with other local agencies. This food, which would otherwise go to waste, becomes a tax deduction for the local retailers who donated, a primary source of bounty for our food programs, and is made available at extremely low share of cost to other local agencies, such as the Ukiah Community Center's Food Bank, that serve very low-income clientele. So our Food Share program is a win-win-win arrangement.
These local retailers donate food and/or services on a regular basis:
they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into
pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation; neither
shall they learn war anymore."

It's that time of year where everyone loves to share their two cents on how the Bengals should handle the upcoming offseason and I'm no different. So here we go:
Free Agency:
Ideally, we'd start off by resigning Andre Smith, Michael Johnson, Thomas Howard, Adam Jones, Kevin Huber and Wallace Gillberry. After that we should start targeting other teams free agents to fill holes in our roster from the guys we let walk. I'm not going to list unrealistic names like Reggie Bush or Dwayne Bowe (though I'd love to see us make a play for a top tier safety like Jarius Byrd or Dashon Goldson). Instead, here are some new guys to throw into the discussion:
Matt Shaughnessy - DE - Oakland Raiders: He's only 26 and one of the best defensive ends when it comes to stopping the run. I'd bring him in to replace Geathers and act as insurance in case we can't resign Johnson.
Daryl Smith - OLB - Jacksonville Jaguars: He's getting up there is age and is coming off a down season after fighting some injuries, but he might be worth the risk. Smith was Pro Football Focus' 2nd rated outside linebacker in 2011. We all know how the Bengals like to buy low when it comes to free agents...
Nich Roach - OLB - Chicago Bears: He's only 27 and can play all three linebacker spots. This should be attractive to Zimmer since our line-backing corps are likely to be in flux after the probable departure of Maualuga and Lawson.
Mike Cox - CB - Jacksonville Jaguars: I know what you're thinking... another Jaguar???? Yes, Jacksonville may stink, but they have some real talent on defense and Cox is a very good corner worth signing in Jacksonville lets him walk. He'd be my top cornerback target this offseason.
Patrick Chung - S - New England Patriots: Here's a young safety that's not getting too much hype. He became expendable after the Patriots moved McCourty to safety, and he will most likely hit the open market. He would be an upgrade over Crocker/Mays in my opinion.
Tracy Porter - CB - Denver Broncos: Tracy Porter kind of disappeared this past season after he was buried on the Broncos depth chart. Everyone wanted him last offseason, but now the Bengals might be able to get him for cheap after hardly playing 2012.
E.J. Biggers - CB - Tampa Bay Bucs: He's not a number 1 CB, but we don't need a true number 1 right now with Hall still under contract. He played pretty well in Tampa Bay last year after Talib was traded to New England and has the speed to stay with most NFL receivers. Plus he's not a big name so we could get him for pretty cheap.
Jerome Felton - FB - Minnesota Vikings: This guy is young and just helped pave the way for Adrian Peterson's monster season. I know we have Pressley and we just signed Connor for the upcoming season, but it's time to get serious about reviving our running game and to me that means making a play for a serious fullback.
La'Rod Stephens-Howling - RB - Arizona Cardinals: Howling is worth bringing in for his return skills alone. With Tate leaving (Hopefully) he could come in a replace him as the primary kickoff returner right away. He won't add too much to the backfield, but he's elusive and could be a solid option in the passing game.
Chaz Schillens - WR - New York Jets: He's got ideal size and speed for a receiver, but hasn't put it all together yet. He's still young, but would really only serve as depth/competition for us.
Onto the draft. We all know that each prospects stock will rise and fall between now and the draft, but as it stands now, here's who I'd like to see in stripes next year:
Round 1 - Arthur Brown - LB - Kansas St.
Round 2a - Eddie Lacy - RB - Alabama
Round 2b - Travis Fredrick - C - Wisconsin
Round 3 - D.J. Swearinger - S - South Carolina
Round 4 - Jonathan Franklin - RB - UCLA
Round 5 - Markus Wheaton - WR - Oregon State
Round 6 - Micah Hyde - CB - Iowa
Thanks for reading! Let me know what you guys think!

At least eight apartments were damaged in a fire at a two-alarm West End apartment fire.
The crews were called to the Colonial Village at Chase Gayton apartments around 10:15 a.m. Thursday. Once on scene they saw flames coming through the roof at an apartment near 3600 Chase Gayton Circle. The flames and smoke were so heavy crews couldn't go in to fight the fire. They were able to get the fire under control using hoses from outside the apartments.
The fire charred the roof of the building and destroyed at least one apartment. Fire officials say everyone got out safely.

The Police in Gulu have announced their plans to beef up security in Gulu district ahead of the celebrations to mark 50 years of Ugandan's Independence.
The police claimed that they have information from the terror group Al-shabab with plans to hit the big town in northern Uganda .
Denis Odoch says the programme will start with those in Gulu municipality before they are rolled out to the different sub counties in the district.
Four suspected terrorists were arrested recently attempting to enter Uganda through Kenya. They told Police that they were on assignment to come and cause chaos in Uganda as the people crowd together to celebrate the Golden Jubilee in July.
Odoch thinks that the best weapon against terrorism is public watchfulness and cooperation with security.
He says this is the purpose of training members of the public on tactics employed by the terrorists.
The DPC urged local leaders and members of the public to participate in the training whose programmes will soon be announced whenever they are in their areas.
Of recent, the police in Kampala issued a terror alert and called on the public to be vigilant saying terrorists are planning to attack the country.
Al Shabab terrorists linked to Al Queda attacked football fans watching the finals of the World cup killing over 70 people in Kampala.
They accused Uganda of deploying in Somalia as part of the African Union peace keeping forces to restore order in the war torn country.
Uganda forms the backbone of AMISOM in Somali where other countries in Africa are also providing support.

Dead soldier in murder investigation is named by police
Updated 4:46pm Monday 10th March 2014 in News By James Connell
THE soldier who died at Tern Hill Barracks in Shropshire at the weekend was this afternoon named as Corporal Geoffrey McNeill.
Corporal Geoffrey McNeill of the Royal Irish Regiment was found dead in a building at Clive Barracks shortly after 9am on Saturday (8 March).
The 1st Battalion of the Royal Irish Regiment helped in the recent flood relief operation, including running the shuttle bus service in Upton.
A 23-year-old serving soldier from the barracks has been arrested on suspicion of murder by West Mercia Police.
Corporal McNeill, aged 32, was not married.
One of his three brothers, Jason McNeill, speaking on behalf of the family, paid this tribute to him: "Geoff was born in Ballymoney, Northern Ireland and dedicated his life to the 1st Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment. He served his country with the highest degree of honour and dedication.
"He was a much loved son, brother, uncle and friend and touched the lives of all who had the pleasure of meeting him.
"The family would like to give thanks for the continued support of the army, police and all who knew and loved Geoff. Our love for him remains as strong as ever. Rest in peace soldier. Faugh-a-Ballagh."

Domaine Pinnacle Réserve 1859 Pinnacle Réserve 1859 cidre Aperitif, Frelighsburg, Quebec, Canada: Sinfully great! Rich apple essence with apple preserves and pie, but the added kick and depth of apple brandy in the blend. Yet it's only 17% alcohol, lower than a port. The brandy gives this cider high tone and so welcome warmth on the upper palate near the finish. Liquid gorgeous. Drink: 2012-2020. 16% S 500 mL $41.00 Score: 95/100.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Carrying the momentum of a four-match winning streak, the Jacksonville University women's soccer team will have a chance to lock up a bid in this year's Atlantic Sun conference tournament and continue to contend for the right to host the semifinals and final when they make their last road trip of the regular season this weekend. On Friday night, the Dolphins (9-5-0, 4-1-0 A-Sun) take on the USC Upstate Spartans (3-8-3, 0-4-1 A-Sun) at 7 pm. They'll then close out the weekend on Sunday at 1 pm in a match with the East Tennessee State Buccaneers (6-7-1, 2-3-0 A-Sun). Both matches will be available to stream live on ASun.TV.
With the strong play of the team this season and just three seniors on the roster, the future of JU women's soccer is bright. Still, for the graduates in the Class of 2014, this season will be the final chance to break through and earn an NCAA Tournament berth in their stellar careers. This week we look at midfielder Adriana Rodrigues, who hopes to be able to combine her loves of soccer and journalism after her days at JU are over.
Born in St. Petersburg, Fla., Rodrigues was exposed to soccer from a very young age, playing as early as three years old in a boy's youth league. Along with her older sister Andrea (who would go on to play for UCF from 2008-12), Adriana was instilled with the skills and flair still evident in her game today from her father, Adelino, who coached her throughout her youth and grew up in Brazil playing pick-up games.
With the coaching of her father and the constant push that comes with an equally-skilled older sibling, Rodrigues developed her game to the point that, at age 15, she flew to Brazil for a tryout with the U-17 Brazil National Team.
"My dad had to pay for the ticket to send me down there, so he asked me if I was sure I wanted to do this, and I told him he wouldn't be wasting his money. I promised him this was all I wanted to do," said Rodrigues. "Out of the 50 or so girls who tried out, two girls were picked and I was one of them. Then there was another camp with about 30 girls and they kept cutting, cutting, cutting, but I made the final roster."
That team would go on to compete in the South American Cup in Chile in 2008, and Rodrigues again was selected for the team the next year with the U-17 World Cup, but an injury kept her out of competition. As she advanced to the next age group, a change in coaching staff for Brazil gave her second thoughts about her place on the team. Luckily, thanks to her Portuguese father, she had options in where she could compete internationally.
"When Portugal heard my sister and I had connections to the country, they gave us tryouts," she said. "My sister went first and she made it, then I went over and made it as well. I was playing on the U-19 team and my sister was on the national team. Then once I turned 19, I got the call-up to the national team and we got to play together."
While busy playing international tournaments across the globe, Rodrigues also had to make a college choice. Despite spending much of her sophomore and junior years of high school overseas, she was still able to graduate from high school early and in January 2010 began classes in the journalism school at the University of Florida. After playing spring ball with the Gators, a leg injury sidelined her as a freshman and forced her to redshirt. Looking for a clean start at a university that would combine a strong soccer program with a respected journalism program, Rodrigues discovered Jacksonville just as the Dolphins were in the midst of the 2010 season that saw them split the A-Sun regular season title and host the conference tournament.
"I was literally just Google-searching communication programs and soccer programs, and trying to find the best combination of the two," said Rodrigues. "I saw that this was a pretty good communications program and I really loved the small class sizes. There are certain things, like video editing, where you need to be taught every little thing, and the small-knit classrooms here help you pick it up that much faster."
Since beginning her sophomore year with the Dolphins in 2011, Rodrigues has always played an important role with the team even though she's rarely been a starter. This season she has played important minutes in all 14 matches as a reserve and relishes the chance to see the game develop before she steps onto the field.
"I like to first of all see how the other team is set up and what they're trying to bring to the table," explained Rodrigues. "Then I can see what we're doing to counteract them and see if it's working or not. At halftime, I'll always listen to the players who were on the field because they'll tell us what they were seeing. I don't just sit on the bench and have conversations, I sit there and watch and try to pick up on things that could help the team."
That attention to the details of the match have helped her notch a goal and an assist this season. In an August 25 matchup against the Miami Hurricanes, JU was quickly down 2-0 but fought back and tied the score before halftime with Rodrigues supplying the tying goal. It came off a free kick from midfield and was a perfect representation of the skill and energy she brings to the Dolphin attack. After being substituted into the match just two minutes beforehand, she worked her way free in the box as Mary Sturgis sent a long ball in. With other players occupying the attention of the Hurricane defenders, Rodrigues controlled the ball on her left foot, flicked it into the air and volleyed the ball home with her right foot to the upper right corner of the net.
It's that type of play that exemplifies why she hopes to be able to continue her soccer career after graduation. With her Brazilian heritage and the World Cup beginning there in eight months, her ideal situation is to continue to play the game while also contributing to the coverage – through broadcasting or writing – of everything going on in the country surrounding the massive event. Even if a playing career in Brazil doesn't happen immediately, her commitment to a soccer career won't change.
"Whether I would get an opportunity in Brazil or here in the U.S., or even if I had to go to Europe, I don't really care, I just want to play," said Rodrigues.
That of course is still a few months down the road. Before then, there's the small matter of these last four regular season matches, plus whatever might happen as Jacksonville works its way into the Atlantic Sun Tournament. In third place in the conference currently but with a game in hand over the two teams ahead of them, the Dolphins are well-positioned to make plenty of noise before all is said and done. If they do, don't be surprised if No. 8 in the green and gold comes up with an inspired bit of play that secures JU a win along the way.
"Speaking for all of us seniors, you don't want to end your career with a bad taste in your mouth. It would be amazing to win a championship for myself, but also for my teammates. I really like this team. It's nice to say that your teammates are your friends, because it's not like that at every school. Winning something with your friends and for your friends is something totally different, and being a senior is just the cherry on top."
Head Coach Brian Copham on Adriana Rodrigues:
"A-Rod is a dynamic, skilled player that has a great deal of creativity with the ball. She is a player that continuously works hard and makes players around her better with her distribution and technical ability. She is a positive player who brings a great deal of energy to the field and is a great teammate on and off the field."
Jacksonville at USC Upstate
Overall: Jacksonville leads, 6-0-0
First Meeting: In USC Upstate's first-ever league game, Jacksonville defeated the Spartans, 2-0, in Spartanburg on Sept. 28, 2007
Last Meeting: Last year in Jacksonville, Kaitlyn Bassett scored the first two goals of the match and Marie Weckhurst added one just after the hour mark as the Dolphins won, 4-0, on Oct. 21, 2012
Notable: After the 2-0 win in their first-ever meeting, the Dolphins have posted at least three goals in every match against the Spartans since. Bassett has four goals and two assists in two prior matchups against Upstate.
Jacksonville at East Tennessee State
Overall: Jacksonville leads, 7-3-2
First Meeting: Jacksonville posted a 2-1 win at home over the Bucs on Sept. 23, 2005
Last Meeting: In the first round of the Atlantic Sun Tournament, Bassett scored a goal seven minutes into overtime to advance Jacksonville into the A-Sun semifinals with a 2-1 victory on Oct. 27, 2012
Notable: JU and ETSU met twice in a span of eight days last season. The Dolphins won each by a score of 2-1. In the regular season matchup in Jacksonville, Bassett had the opening goal in the 25th minute and Miranda Fyfe followed in the 38th minute with the game-winner. The meeting of the two sides in last year's conference tournament was the fourth time in the eight years they've been A-Sun foes that they've battled in an elimination match.

Be nice to others; think before you say anything
Hayley H., Staff Reporter
November 15, 2011
Filed under Opinion
In today's society, people who are different are shunned by the cookie-cutter masses. I'm not talking about those who choose to be different and take pride in it, but those who act differently because of a subconscious reason.
Some people who seem childlike and naïve are branded as immature. In reality, they may be holding onto childhood for multiple reasons. Maybe they never had a childhood, or maybe they had a painful one. If someone singles out another person and is holding a grudge for no apparent reason, the other person assumes that the person holding a grudge is just mean and doesn't like them for superficial reasons. Maybe the person who is being singled out reminds the other of someone who made their life miserable, or of a lost love. Everyone acts the way they act for a reason.
To judge someone before knowing their story is a dangerous road to travel on. Almost no one is mean for no apparent reason. Prematurely assuming things about people is a slippery slope and can lead to even more damage to both parties. The truth is that we never know what is really going on with someone that we don't know. A big part of not being judgmental is having sympathy for and understanding other's situations. After someone passes away, the general consensus is that they were such a blessing, a great person, too good for this world. Maybe if some of these things were expresses before the person passed away, they could've had a slightly better life. A prime example is Amy Winehouse. Before she died, the public called her a drug-addicted screw-up. After she died, she was suddenly this fantastic artist who everyone loved. This phenomenon is spreading and as a culture, we should start positivity before a tragedy instead of after it.
Another trend is the idea that bullying in school is okay because "they're just kids being kids" and the victim will "get over it". This idea, which is supported by a surprisingly large amount, is both dangerous and damaging.
The consensus seems to be that it is perfectly fine to say whatever about a person as long as they don't hear about it. In reality, people often hear more than others think. The phrase "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me," should be changed to "injuries from sticks and stones heal, but injuries from words never will". Emotional pain is far deeper and difficult to heal than physical pain. Teenagers are also often shortsighted and can't see the repercussions of their actions. For example, a kid may torment another kid in school and come to the high school reunion expecting the two of them to be best friends. In reality, not everyone "gets over it." Many forgive, but don't forget. Holding grudges is something that many consider a fault but I, in some cases, encourage. If someone is tormented, they shouldn't just get over it. Now I'm not saying that holding grudges is healthy but it's better than people running all over others. The pitiful excuse of "they were just kids" doesn't fly with me. They should be able to tell the difference between right and wrong and whether something hurts someone, if they are old enough to be a bully.

Unite for gun safetyMarch 7, 2013 12:00 AM
Share with others:
Thank you for your March 3 editorial "Don't Give Up: It's Time to Lead, Not Surrender, on Gun Safety." I agree. And I have written to my two Pennsylvania senators urging that they vote for Sen. Dianne Feinstein's legislation to ban assault weapons and large magazine clips and to insist on background checks for each person desiring to purchase a weapon.
Will both Bob Casey and Pat Toomey respond to my appeal and that of the majority of Americans after the horrifying massacre in Newtown, Conn.? I hope so.
Will you ask your readers to contact whomever is their representative in the U.S. House and urge him or her to vote for the companion bill in the House sponsored by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, a Democrat of New York. I am contacting my representative, Tim Murphy, R-18th District, to do so.
Mr. Casey is a Democrat and Mr. Toomey a Republican, but this is no time for party differences. It is time to unite against the National Rifle Association.
The address for the U.S. Senate is Washington, D.C., 20510, and for the House, Washington, D.C., 20515. Please do write.

An alert Washington, DC resident, John Lockwood, was doing some research in the Library of Congress. He ran across an old Washington Post story dated July 9, 1971 which described a climate prediction issued under NASA auspices by a Columbia University scientist, S.I. Rasool. His prediction was for a man-made Ice Age within 5 to 10 years, supposedly caused by the dust released into the atmosphere by the combustion of fossil fuels. The basis of his prediction? Computer modeling, aided by a program written by then-Research Associate Dr. James Hansen.
Yep – the very same James Hansen who now heads NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, and has become the High Priest in Prelate Al Gore's Church of Global Warming.
According to the Washington Post story, the scientists making the frigid prediction were asked about the coutervailing influence of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere during combustion. The result? "They found no need to worry about the carbon dioxide fuel-burning puts in the atmosphere."
The existence of this rather incriminating news story was reported in the Washington Times and picked up by LiveLeak.com. You can read the whole thing here: Global Warming Guru Bitten By His Own Words.
According to the article,
Hansen has some explaining to do. The public deserves to know how he was converted from an apparent believer in a coming ice age who had no worries about greenhouse gas emissions to a global warming fear monger.
Yes, I'd say he does, indeed. Was he lying then, is he lying now, or both?

My focus is to allow all of my students to feel that they have control of their learning experience. In my opinion the best way to do that is by creating a sense of personal incentive on the course material without losing site of the curriculum goals. I feel that students will become more involved if the subject matter will align itself with their own personal interests and experiences. By drawing on prior knowledge and offering new experiences, my students will have a stronger grasp on the relevance of the subject matter.
I feel that the most significant factor of effective teaching is the instructor's genuine enthusiasm in class and honest interest in the students well being. I also believe that teachers should have high expectations of their students and set ambitious but not unreasonable goals. The best way for me to describe my teaching philosophy is to use the notion of a journey.

Medical care is extremely expensive in the United States. If you have a disability you are likely aware of the high costs associated with treating various medical conditions. If you are on SSDI or SSI you are entitled to medical care. However obtaining that care can be difficult. You may need a lawyer to help you through the process.
Law Offices of Ryan and Kafshi, LLP, helps clients from New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania with obtaining medical benefits that they are entitled. Our office is situated in Middlesex, New Jersey, and we have been helping clients with their SSDI and SSI claims and appeals for 20 years. Robert J. Ryan, worked for Social Security for 15 years prior to opening our private practice. Therefore our law firm has the skills, knowledge and experience to pursue your claim or appeal in the best way possible.
Applying for Medical Benefits
There are two basic types of medical benefits that you probably have heard about — Medicaid and Medicare.
- Medicaid: Medicaid is a program that is funded jointly by federal and state health insurance for low income individuals and disabled individuals. If you are on Supplemental Security Income, you are entitled to Medicaid assistance.
- Medicare: Medicare is a program that is usually for individuals who are over the age of 65. However, if you are on Social Security Disability Income, regardless of your age, you are entitled to Medicare as well. There are four parts to Medicare including hospital insurance, medical insurance, Medicare advantage and prescription drug coverage. Medicare assists with coverage but does not cover all medical expenses.
Contact a Middlesex SSI and SSD Benefits Attorney
If you are an individual who has a disability, you may qualify for SSDI or SSI. There are medical benefits that are associated with each of these government programs. If you have questions about your potential eligibility for benefits, it would be smart to consult an experienced attorney. Contact us by e-mail or by calling 732-733-4534 or toll free at 877-401-3514.

Come March 3, 2013, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will be turning Japanese (I really think so).
That's because the promotion today announced it will make its mixed martial arts (MMA) return to the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan, for an event that has yet to have any fights announced for it.
MMAFighting.com gets the word:
The UFC will be returning to Japan in 2013, and the event will once again be at the Saitama Super Arena. The show will be on March 3rd, and like their last show in the country, it will be held on a Sunday morning to accommodate the time slots for the U.S. audience.
No word yet whether the Japanese event will be on PPV, or a free show on FX, or FUEL TV. In addition, no names were given out as possible participants on the card.
Poor Japanese fans, forced to suffer the same fate as those of us here in the United States did today for UFC on FUEL TV 6: "Franklin vs. Le," waking up bright and early to enjoy the live show.
Still, it's better than nothing.
The last time the Octagon graced the country, it did so with a stacked slate of action that saw Ben Henderson win the lightweight championship from Frankie Edgar in a disputed decision in the main event of the evening while the co-headlining attraction featured Ryan Bader dominating Quinton Jackson en route to a unanimous decision win.
Tim Boetsch knocked out Yushin Okami in a thrilling comeback, Anthony Pettis destroyed Joe Lauzon with one kick, and Mark Hunt put Cheick Kongo out in the first round of their heavyweight match-ups. And that didn't even round out the entire main card!
There's no telling if the UFC will attempt to create another high caliber card for its return trip to Saitama but if it even comes close, fight fans should be happy.

Richard Yeargin is one of the fastest rising recruits in the class of 2014. Yeargin, who recently transferred to Ft. Lauderdale (Fla.) University School from nearby Chaminade Madonna, has an impressive build at 6'4 and 215 pounds. As of Feb. 22, his offer list includes Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Tennessee, UCLA, Vanderbilt, N.C. State, Rutgers, West Virginia and Wake Forest. Yeargin is a consensus four-star recruit, and is considered one of the 30 best outside linebackers in the country, though that rating should improve, as it is highly unlikely that there are 25 better outside linebackers nationally than Yeargin.
Bud Elliott, National Recruiting Analyst: Yeargin is an extremely intriguing recruit. While he is a good high school player, he is more of a prospect than a star, and his best football is still ahead of him. Yeargin has a long 6'4 frame and could eventually play, conservatively, at 250-plus pounds. And that brings his eventual position into question. Is he a defensive end or a linebacker? That ultimately will be determined by the scheme of the school to which he commits.
Yeargin showcases impressive athleticism and quickness. He opened my eyes during the February South Florida Express tryout, at which he was asked to cover some of the quickest athletes in the country, and fared better than I expected. And on tape, Yeargin does an excellent job of showcasing his speed and quickly closing distance between himself and the ball carrier.
If Yeargin can retain that quickness and athleticism as he adds 30 or 40 pounds, he could be extremely valuable at the linebacker position.
Yeargin is not all that strong, yet, but he does have a few big hits on his highlight tape. And he'll only get stronger as he adds muscle. While he's not polished, I was impressed by the few clips that showed him making a tackle after playing his contain assignment (as opposed to just flying up field, as is often the case in South Florida).
University School will provide a more competitive environment for Yeargin, and his recruitment should continue to explode.

How old is too old to have a baby? This is no longer simply a biological question. The Journal of the American Medical Association published a study on Nov. 13 stating there is no medical reason why women in their 50s should not have babies with donor eggs. Once again, medical science has moved faster than cultural consensus.
Motherhood does not end with the birth of the child. Parents have a responsibility to support their children until they are self-sufficient, and part of this is a financial obligation. More importantly, parents are a guiding force in their children's lives, passing on their values and culture.
Children benefit greatly from the social capital that comes from their parents' contacts and networks. Your place in society is determined to a large degree by your parents' stature. Also, considering that so few women will be able to afford to have children by this method, the mother will have few people her own age to confer with on current childrearing issues.
While older parents often have more time and financial stability, they can lack vigor and may not make the best caregivers for energetic toddlers stampeding through the house or ten-year-olds who discover the joys of tackle football.
Many may paint this as a women's rights issue, because older men have always had procreative freedom. However, this debate has more bearing on the rights of the unborn child than the potential mother. Ethically, what right do parents have to give birth to a child that will have a high likelihood of being orphaned?
The JAMA study also points out that pregnancy at that age carries a higher risk of complications such as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, two conditions that put mother and child at risk.
One must also ask why women in their 50s would desire to give birth at that point in their lives, especially when such a child would not carry their genes. Possibly those who want to leave a lasting legacy on this world should consider adopting an older child.
Women in their 50s should not have babies, as parenting is an ongoing process. Even people well into their 20s need guidance from their parents, especially when they are considering starting families of their own.
older parents are experienced parents
experienced parents know about pregnancy
experienced parents know about football leagues and don't need to tackle
experienced parents know that parenting is about caring and not genocentric
experienced parents have more money
older parents know that the average life expectancy is greater than 70 years

The Island's greatest attractions lie in its landscape: rich soil that turns red from high concentrations of rusting iron oxide, quaint countryside filled with patchworks of fields, salt-water breakers that crash against the north shore, sands that sing when you walk at Basin Head, native birds that chirp along your cycle on the Confederation Trail, dunes that beckon as you perfect your game at the Links of Crowbush Cove, or the stunning sight of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Northumberland Strait meeting at North Cape. The Island is just 224 kilometers long – and although you could drive it in three or four hours, you'll want to enjoy the scenery along the way.

The hand made cheese made with vegetable rennet, tastes fresh on first impact, becoming full and nutty as the taste buds kick-in. Dimpled from the basket mould containers, young cheeses have a sweet creaminess to the taste, but with maturing the flavour becomes more intense and rewarding.
This cheese has been aged for at least 18 months when the texture becomes grittier and fruitier, and the colour of the cheese darker. The deep ivory paste is firm, compact and perforated with tiny holes and it has an aromatic smell with a hint of butterscotch.
Smooth, intensely creamy pate with blue-green veining well spread and marbled. Lovely tangy flavour, more melting and richer than the usual Roquefort. In 1925, it was the first cheese to receive AOC designation.
A cheese made from unpasteurised sheep`s milk using vegetable rennet. It has natural wrinkled grey/white moulds scattered between bloomy moulds on the crust. The sappy fruity rich flavour is quite sharp and crumbly when young, but with maturing the edges begin to melt making it a velvety rich mellow tasting cheese. Regular award winner. Available in 2 sizes.

Musings On Marriage Counseling - And An Intimacy Averse Spouse Is BornFirst, many have commented here before, and now I see it clearly as well, that marriage counselors cannot bring back something in a marriage that was not there in the first place.
When I first started marriage counseling, I wanted to bring back some intimacy, but quickly realized that would not happen. Then I had hoped to improve communication and work together as a team. But see, here is the rub. He and I never, in our eight years of marriage, communicated together about money, division of responsibility, plans for our future, ....none of that. Early this morning he tells me we need to start talking to each other.
I told him that it is too late. I just need to get back to work full time and he needs to accept that I am the breadwinner and head of the household. Someone has to put food on the table, I told him. "But I have enough money to get us through March", he said.
Geez, is that supposed to comfort me?
Then he goes through the tirade of the past, how I spend too much on this that and the other thing. And I said, "I cannot do anything about the past. If it makes you feel better, I will leave you alone now in your office to wallow in the past as it seems to be your focus. I need to do something to get us out of this mess, as I am the only one who really can."
He knows now that I have given up. I do not want sex from him, but he bothers me for it and I cave. He talks "up" about his business and nowadays I let his babbling go in one ear and out the other. I don't want it. Everything I had hoped for in this marriage, I do not want to bother trying for it any more. And now, although I am not a refuser, I do what I can to avoid sex with him. Change clothes in the other room, make sure our daughter is around, be busy with job applications, tell him I am waiting for a headhunter phone call, whatever it takes. Maybe because in the back of my mind I know that this sudden spike in sexual interest is desperation behavior on his part.
I told him as long as the drinking is under control, I have no intention of leaving him. That I love him like family. Maybe we can be good friends. One day. That is the most I can hope for.
I feel sorry for him. He continually throws up now, and I told him he has to go to the doctor. Pretty sure he has an ulcer, like I did in 2011.
Intresting read. Your situation is a tough one. If you truly dont want sex with him i think you should stop caving in cause you caving in gives him false hope and makes it harder for him to detach from you.
Perhaps you need to get some legal advice on how a divorce will pan out for you. As i read it you are emotionally checked out and it might not be too long before you decide he is no good as a roomate either.
Stay Strong & Good Luck
Dear engel, I have lived what you are going through now. <<<>>> is all I can offer you. Stay strong and know you are worth more than this, and know you cannot lift him up higher than he is willing to lift himself. Your job with him is done. Concentrate on you and your child. I hope you get that job soon. ANother <<>>>>
In between the <<>>> were HUGS that got deleted somehow
So your first paragraph cause me to wonder what was the something that was present in your marriage in the first place, if it wasn't intimacy.
Hun, you're a bigger person than me. I don't think I'd be sticking around to work myself to the bone to financially enable drinking behavior, just to keep the harmony and a father figure for my kid.It's just beyond my personal limits, and the deed is bigger than who I am as person.
EE, as long as he's not drinking and you are impressed with his parenting of your daughter, sounds like your chosen path is one you're at peace (mostly) with. while this us going on, focus on you, and your daughter. good luck in the job search. and who knows? once employed full time, confidence & esteem levels rising, your choices may evolve. keep a close eye on your little one, listen carefully to what she says & doesn't say--there are clues to how the ongoing atmosphere will be affecting her. best--xo
Appears that you are holding the cards at the moment.
It is only a short step to opening the marriage (really, what alternative does he have) and your ticket to do what you like, with whom, where you like.
OTOH, you cede any "right" to tell him what to do too. If he chooses to get hammered all the time now, that's his choice and it is not down to you to have any say in as a wife. Of course if this drinking starts to impact upon the harmony of the house then, as a room mate your are entitled to room make protestations about this behaviour. If it starts to impact (further) on kinder Engel, then you are entitled to raise hell - as a co-parent.
But the spousal considerations are no more.
You might be able to spin this "open marriage" deal out to March next year (when he runs out of money) but you'd do well to have an exit strategy in the bag by then. By March, it is quite possible that his performance as 'room mate' is not going to be up to par, and just as likely that his perfornmance as 'co-parent' won't be real good either.
Given that you have made him irrelevant as a husband, if he blows any value he has as a room mate, trashes his value as a co-parent, then he has pretty much made himself completely disposable. The ball of choice will be squarely back with you at that point.
Tread your own path.

Pastor saddles up again
Terry Gayle retires -- twice -- then starts anew
SAN ANGELO, Texas - Pastor Terry Gayle grew up in San Angelo, then traveled far and wide before returning a year and a half ago to start up the San Angelo Cowboy Church.
Gayle attended Lee Junior High and San Angelo High School (before it became Central). He graduated from Baylor University with a bachelor of arts in history and religion. He earned a master's of divinity at Golden Gate Seminary in San Francisco.
He first pastored in the San Francisco Bay area, then Seattle. He returned to California, where he pastored in the Berkeley-Oakland area and Fresno, before returning to Texas, pastoring at a church in Dickinson. He was the pastor at University Baptist Church in San Antonio for 18 years, before retiring for the first time.
Gayle and his wife, Dee, moved to Whitney to be closer to their three children and five grandchildren, who live in the metroplex. They bought a ranchette and raised horses, then started a Cowboy Church in Whitney, which grew to 900 in attendance.
Gayle retired a second time, then came out of retirement to start the San Angelo Cowboy Church a year and four months ago.
"I retired, and when I retired, they gave me a saddle, and shortly afterwards I accepted the call to start up the San Angelo Cowboy Church; I thought, well, I could use another saddle!," Gayle said about returning to preaching.
Describe the moment you decided you wanted to be a spiritual leader.
I was not raised in a Christian home, although I had wonderful parents. I had no church background. While working in the oilfields as a high school student, a worker talked to me about Christ. The Holy Spirit began to work in my heart and shortly afterward I received Christ into my life. My whole life changed. About two months later, God called me to the preaching ministry. I was asked to preach in a youth-led revival at Harris Avenue Baptist Church.
Describe the experience of the first service or sermon you gave.
My first sermon was supposed to last 20 minutes. It lasted 12, but that weekend I saw over 100 of my classmates commit their lives to Christ.
What do you pray for?
I pray for people as I find them in their needs. God puts them on my heart. I pray for my own needs. David in the Bible declared, "I am poor and needy." That's me.
What do you see as your church's greatest impact on the community?
Seeing people's lives changed by the power of God has, I believe, the greatest impact on the community.
Have you ever witnessed a miracle?
My granddaughter had cancer of the liver at age 18 months. Endless rounds of chemo and six major surgeries followed. Three times we were told she probably would not make it. We gathered our family together and asked the Lord to bring her through this and heal her. Many others were praying, too. She did come through, and today she is a beautiful, red-headed 16-year-old who reminds us of God's grace.
What is a spiritual practice you use to get closer to God?
Each morning I get up early, put on a pot of coffee, open God's Word, hear Him speak to me and through prayer I speak to Him. This is often referred to as a "quiet time." Taken from Psalm 46:10, "Be still and know that I am God." This has been a source of strength to me over the past 35 years.
How do you have fun?
Ride, train and work with horses. Horses! Horses! Horses! At a young age I was around horses and ranch life, but pastoring in cities kept me from owning any. Dee and I enjoy and work with our five horses.
What or who do you turn to when you feel lost or conflicted?
Like most pastors, I also struggle with discouragements, setbacks. My wife, Dee, has been a great source of encouragement. She is my confidant and friend in times of need. Together we take our cares to the Lord.

Are you an American or other non-EU citizen looking for a way to live and work in the EU, but cannot get a residence or work permit?
Because only EU citizens have the right to live and work in Europe without restriction, the easiest path to living and working in the EU is to claim EU citizenship through descent or origin should you have an ancestor born in one of the current European Union member states or non-EU countries of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Switzerland and Norway. Many times, there are no language or residency requirements, and applications for repatriation are processed quickly. Citizenship from an EU country would then entitle and allow you to apply for an EU passport and national ID.
There are typically only two ways of getting EU citizenship and an EU passport:
1) Birth in an EU country (yourself or an ancestor);
2) By living in an EU country legally with a residence permit and going through naturalization.
If you are married and/or have a child with an EU citizen, all legitimate non-EU spouses and minors of EU citizens are entitled a residence/work permit, which essentially grants the same rights and privileges as an EU resident. You may also be eligible for a shortened waiting period for citizenship by naturalization, but there are almost always language and in-country residency requirements. There is no automatic way of getting EU citizenship through marriage due to fake marriages, bribery and fraud. Thus, there is no such thing as marrying for EU citizenship.
Please be aware that all countries still recognize citizens by nationality, i.e., Belgian, Greek, Spanish, British, etc. The EU has not fused into one big country, and there are no one-size-fits-all rules for the whole of Europe. The EU is a collective made up of separate member states (countries) — much like the United States is a country made up of separate states such as California, Florida and New York — with each retaining its unique borders and laws.
If you do not have an ancestor or spouse from the EU, see other options for EU citizenship and living and working in the EU by clicking, "How to get EU citizenship, passports, visas and permits to live and work in the EU" if you have not already read this article.
*Article last updated on January 2, 2014. Waiting for resolution to three plagiarism claims.
Dual citizenship with the EU
It is imperative you consult directly with an official government authority in your homeland regarding your country's stance on dual nationality or dual citizenship with the target EU country before starting this process. If you do not, you risk getting misleading information and possibly losing your current citizenship. Certain countries allow it, some don't.
If you are an American citizen, see the U.S. Department of State's page titled, "Advice about Possible Loss of U.S. Citizenship and Dual Nationality."
If you are already an EU citizen, seeking dual citizenship with another EU member state is redundant and carries no real benefits in theory. In reality, however, some EU countries do show preference toward its citizens even though it goes against EU directives.
Helpful links to official sites
Should you have questions, you must consult directly with an official government body, such as the consulate or embassy in your homeland, or the appropriate government ministry in the country of concern. Do not consult forums, a friend or relative or lawyers advertising citizenship services on the Internet, or you risk being cheated of time and money, in addition to getting damaging advice as each case is unique.
Be aware that citizenship applications may only be offered in the native language of the country concerned, even if they do not require applicants to be fluent.
