Moshe Givati had a reputation on Israel's art scene for being difficult to work
with. But no critic or curator could dismiss his raw talent and self-taught
skill. After being largely absent from the Israeli art world since the 1990s,
the 78-year-old artist was thrilled to return with a show of his work from 2006-
2010. But it was not meant to be. Givati succumbed to a heart condition on April
13 in Tel Aviv on the eve of the opening of his much-anticipated exhibition in
New York City this week.Deena Lusky, the curator of Givati's new show
"Equus Ambiguity – Emergence of Maturity," at Jadite Galleries, acknowledges
that he was a complex person, but adds that the greatest of artists usually
are."He was very rough on the outside," she says in a phone interview
from New York with The Jerusalem Post. "He didn't give a care, but on the other
hand he had this person inside him that was so striving for
acceptance."It was this insecurity, Lusky says, that caused Givati, who
took part in the major contemporary art groups in Israel like the 10+ Group
(1965-1966), Tazpit (1964) and Rehabilitation of the Nesher Quarry Project
(1970- 1971) and showed in galleries in Israel and New York, to turn down
opportunities for success over the years.Despite being a part of those
movements, he never felt that he truly belonged."From the beginning with
Givati it was very hard to put him in a defined place," Lusky says. Still, he
longed to be acknowledged as the genius that he was.Known for his
large-scale abstract paintings using bright colors and expressive figurative
elements, the new Equus series is based on Givati's experience seeing the play
Equus in 1975 while living in New York from 1974-1982 just after the Yom Kippur
War. In the '70s, he worked on the series inspired by the play about a
psychiatrist trying to understand why a young psychotic boy chose to blind six
horses.The show deals with the questions raised for Givati by the play,
as well as his own maturation and the question of what it means to be a
mature man."It has nothing to do with age," Lusky says."It's
trying to live with the finding of who he is in his own eyes."His
paintings struggle with social and political issues as well, including one
particularly poignant one of a frightened figure behind bars, which he stayed up
all night working on during the night of captive soldier Gilad Schalit's
release."He took to heart so deeply the pains of what was going on in
Israel," Lusky says. "He was a Jew and an Israeli at heart."Born Moshe
Hacohen Wexler in 1934 in Hadera to a mother with manic-depressive disorder,
from which he also suffered, Givati's parents, Yehudit and Moshe (for whom he
was named), immigrated from Khotin, Bessarabia in 1933. His father died at 21,
before he was born. Givati returned to Khotin when he was two years old to live
with his grandmother, but his mother brought him back to Israel just before
World War II broke out.In Israel, he struggled to keep up in school as
he had dyslexia, and soon stopped attending classes before getting kicked out of
the Beit Hinuch Workers' Children School.Givati became active in the
Zionist Hashomer Hatzair youth movement and began work on Kibbutz Shamir in the
Upper Galilee. In the '70s, he lived in the artists' colony Ein Hod and later
moved to Haifa – it was during this time that he studied with Marcel Janco, the
Romanian-Israeli artist best known as a leading figure in Dadaism.Givati
shared one memory from his schooling. At around age 11 or 12, his art teacher
Aaron Priver drew a horse on the blackboard and asked the class to copy it,
threatening to slap their hands with a ruler if they didn't.Lusky
postulates that his early artistic encounter with horses contributed to his
later interest in Equus.While living in New York, Givati did not paint
very much, but rather focused on printmaking and textiles. When he returned to
Israel, Lusky says he reached a low point personally, drinking excessively and
using drugs, though he continued to garner praise from art critics for his
four-panel abstract landscapes and formulation."My head must always be
in a slightly blurry state; this is the only way I can go through life," he had
said.While he continued to paint in the '90s, including a series of
landscapes from Jerusalem of Arab villages over the 1967 lines, opening "Studio
Givati" in a large loft in Tel Aviv and selling works to collectors who visited
him, he intentionally disconnected himself from the mainstream art scene as he
struggled financially and with his health, suffering his first heart attack in
1993.Unable to meet mounting debts, Lusky says Givati found himself
homeless and working as a dishwasher and juice squeezer at Tel Aviv's old
Central Bus Station. After a year, hotel owner and art collector Haim Shiff, who
had purchased Givati's paintings in the past, offered him a room at the Marina
Hotel in Tel Aviv. Haim's son Dov (Dubi) Shiff became Givati's benefactor after
his father passed away.Always open about his mental disorder, Givati
said, "Painting is my mania, and as a mentally-ill person I cannot demand
anything from the authorities. Being an artist is my privilege, God's gift, and
just as a religious man reports every morning to pray to his Creator –
fearlessly – thus the artist wakes up every morning for his art prayer, and must
not expect anything in return."His last show was a retrospective of his
work in 2006 at the Tel Aviv Museum, but Lusky says the exhibition did not show
much of his later work.After being told by curators and art consultants
that Givati was considered a "has been," also because he designed works for his
benefactor's hotel interiors, Lusky says she became determined to reintroduce
the artist to the world when Dubi Schiff approached her about working on an
exhibition.Refusing to ever title his paintings or really verbalize what
they were about, Givati insisted that it was up to the viewer to understand
whatever he wanted from his deeply personal work."I am not a philosopher
or an intellectual," he said. "I paint beautiful paintings. On the other hand,
if art lovers find ideas in the paintings, they are experiencing their own
discovery. My touch on the canvas is my story."The exhibition in New
York will run until June 30 before traveling to Los Angeles, and then Europe
before possibly showing in Israel, Lusky says.For a man for whom the
canvas was his confidante, he looked forward to sharing his inner world with the
public again."For him it was like a dream come true," she says of the
exhibition."He said to me, 'in viewing my art there will be people who
will look at it and continue on. But the ones who feel a connection to something
that I'm expressing in my painting won't ever want to leave it. They'll want it
in front of their face continuously."

Mr. Debraj Banerjee, Associate Vice President,Corporate Strategy, Janalakshmi Financial Services
Mr. Debraj Banerjee on the importance of classifying information first before deciding whether there is information symmetry or asymmetry. Information could be data or ratios or it could be information provided by the management. Further, he stated that people like Warren Buffet did their own research rather than relying on company information. On Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), he said that it is something that one really cannot achieve. If one looks at market capitalization of companies listed in the BSE, it forms only 20 percent of the total industry capitalization. Further, he stated on the need to have an authority which regulates information issued by companies as they will look to go beyond their means to promote their companies and make them look attractive. He also stressed on the need to have clear and uniform financial reporting standards to bring about more transparency to the system. To end with, he spoke about how Janalakshmi Bank wants to make a difference to the banking sector and will look to cater to the class of people who rely more on the cash flow basis rather than the profit and loss basis.
Mr. Ganti Murthy, Head – Fixed Income, IDBI Asset Management
Mr. Ganti Murthy started the discussion by giving his view on market research. He said that information was available worldwide but it was the responsibility of the investor to filter the noise. The investor has to take the call as to where he should invest and how much to invest.Talking about Mutual Fund portfolio, Mr. Murthy said unrated investments should not be more than 20%. He threw light on the importance of credit rating agencies. Ratings are an investment factor and are critical third party opinions. On the contrary, he suggested that credit ratings should be taken into consideration along with other factors such as past financials, rating history and macro perspective. Talking about 2008 financial crisis he said the credit rating agencies, fund houses and RBI were all taken aback. He emphasized on the investment in safer mutual funds even though they give lesser returns. He asked whether research houses be part of a bank or brokerage house. He said nowadays more ratings, reports and brokers are available for retail investors to take informed decisions. Speaking of the growth of investors in India he said the strength of Mutual Fund industry has grown leaps and bounds and is now worth 13 lakh crores.
Mr. Rohit Rao, Director and Advisory Leader, Grant Thornton LLP
Mr. Rohit Rao spoke about the potential conflict of interests in the research house sector. He said that the research reports are not free of information asymmetry, and stressed on the importance of research firms being independent from the brokerage houses. He talked about the importance of being a savvy investor by looking at market trends rather than solely depending on research reports for making investment decisions. He also talked about the incentive structure of analysts. The lack of stringent guidelines are leading to more instances of collusion between research firms and brokerage houses, he said. He then went on to talk about reputational risks for the various players in the financial sector. Comparing the regulatory structure of US with India, he said that the regulatory mechanisms in India are weak and hence there are low reputational risks for firms operating from India.
Mr. Shreenivas Kunte, Content Director, CFA Institute
Mr. Shreenivas Kunte started off by discussing the concept of market efficiency. He said that the concept of efficiency rests on inefficiency and that the markets would always represent the overall inefficiency of the system. He then spoke about market predictions and the follies associated with it.
He went on to add that making correct long terms predictions of more than one year is next to impossible. Speaking on return on investments, he said that in the long run ROI would not exceed the performance of the underlying economy. Talking about analyst incentive structure, he agreed with the views of Mr. Rohit Rao and added that in most firms budgetary allocation of research departments are based on the performance of trading divisions. Hence potential conflict of interests are always high. He said that the discussions on new incentive structures are going on in European countries which could lead to lesser conflict of interests in the future. Speaking on reputational risks, he said that it could affect the entire country. A loss of faith in the system could even lead to outflow of FII investments from India, he said.
Finomenal 2015, Day 2 : Guest Lecture-Mr. Krishna Rama Chandran, CFO, ACIS – Allianz
Values and ethics, that's what Mr. Krishna Rama Chandran, Chief Finance Officer, CFO, ACIS – Allianz focussed on at the interactive session with the students. He started the session speaking about his own journey in his life. He spoke about his interest in the commerce field from his schooling and his aim to become a CFO of a company. He shared his few experiences, being working as a CFO, at the age of 29, in a start-up, which failed to cope with the market, after six months. He stated, "Failing in a start-up is a good business model".
Then, he spoke about how one`s choice could actually affects one`s life. He told it by giving an example, "You can exercise your choice. You can have BMW, I10 or a bicycle, to go to the work. The destination would be the same. The road would be the same. The traffic would be the same. But it's ultimately your decision how would you want to lead your own life". He said journey is more important than the destination. He also added humour to the session, by comparing our success stories with a Bollywood movie, stating that whatever might be happened in a movie, but finally, it would have been a happy ending. He mentioned the desire is growing unlimited in the world, and explained how material wealth becomes more important than spiritual wealth. He stressed how greed and selfishness affect a human mind to gain that material wealth, and would deviate him to make frauds, by quoting the examples of 'Satyam'. In saying so, he compared the journey of an individual with the journey of a company, and explained why one should feel responsible and be ethical to the company`s values. He also spoke why an individual (CFO) mind-set should tally with the company`s values and vision, for the overall benefit of the company.
He also spoke about corporate governance, and said that it was all about the stakeholder`s management. He said independence is a state of a mind, and a CFO needs to have this, to prevent himself from any bias among his vendors. He said, as a CEO/CFO, one should have guts to tell that your company was down before the electronic media. He mentioned a few situations, how sometimes, stock markets run the company, but not the CEO. He also mentioned about risk management and why mitigation of risk is important. He said, "More the risks, more the profits for a company". He said India has a few advantages, such as low cost capital, and democracy, when compared to China for the investors, in spite of the fact that ease of doing business is not so good. He explained why sustainability is important for a company, in this competitive world. And finally, he winded up the session, saying that the company culture is very important to sustain in this competitive world for a long run, how a company would build its own culture, values and principles and that responsibility should be taken care off by CEO/CFO.

What could be the next driver for an economic boom? Potential drivers could be rise of substitution for the lack from China; the possibilities being India, US and Africa. Technological drivers like robotics, renewables, smart grid, energy storage, big data, IOT and additive manufacturing (3D printing).
He spoke about the challenges in the new world being the liquidity factor, complexity due to integrated markets, increased disruption due to technology, the quantum and frequency of data being high, shorter business cycles and geopolitics.
He touched on the newer themes being transportation vs. communication, aggregators vs. owners, intangibles (ideas) vs. tangibles ( hard assets), valuation appearing to be more of an art than science.

Finomenal 2015,Day 1: Mr. Vidhu Shekhar – Country Head, CFA Institute, CFA – TAPMI signing
Mr. Vidhu Shekhar, the country head of CFA Institute was present amongst us today for the inaugural ceremony of Finomenal 2015. TAPMI has been institutionally recognized by the CFA, which is a landmark achievement for the institute. The course materials and curriculum of Financial Majors will now be mapped 70% to that of CFA.
Mr. Shekhar told us about the mission of CFA and emphasized how ethics are ultimately benefiting the society through professional excellence on a global level. He said that in today's business scenario, having knowledge and skill is not enough. One should also focus on ethics as it is important to know how to act in relation to customer needs and business needs. There always exists a conflict between the two and CFA pays a lot of attention to it so as to understand how this conflict works and therefore can be avoided.
Citing example from a MBA student's life itself, he said that it is important to make informed choices because these choices has a long term impact. The CFA's ethic programs teaches the candidates about the same ethics and its relevance. CFA aims at serving the society
Mr. Shekhar went on to show a picture to the audience. The photo was taken in 1964, where CEOs of investment funds, analysts, head of research works and other experienced people were taking the very first CFA exam. He further explained how and why the idea of CFA was conceived. He said that a community of security analysts came together and decided that some credentials were needed when it came to finance and related activities.
Next, he spoke some more about CFA Institute. It is a global membership body of investment professionals and is also a non-profit organization. It has portfolio of various products and services. It has 145 member societies across 70 countries.
Lastly, he enunciated the relevance of CFA programs. According to a survey, Financial Services are the least trusted industry globally. This is mainly due to the fact that money in involved in it. The CFA program focuses on benefiting the society, and for this purpose has identified some key areas to develop. Some of them are Financial Knowledge, Retirement Security, Safeguarding the system, and putting investors first.
Finomenal 2015, Day 2: Guest Lecture-Tamal Bandyopadhyay,Adviser, Strategy at Bandhan Bank Ltd, & Consulting Editor, Mint
Tamal Bandyopadhyay is one of the most respected business journalists in India. His weekly column, Banker's Trust, in India's second largest read financial daily Mint, is widely read for its deep insights into the world of finance and its unerring ability to anticipate major policy moves. TAPMI students were privileged to have him among themselves during the ongoing Annual Finance Conclave- Finomenal 2015, where he delivered a session on the topic- Evaluation of Indian Banking Sector and the changing landscape.
He discussed about the intricacies of the various phases that the banking Industry saw in India. Banking is the most regulated industry in India as it deals in public money. A bank failure can lead to a big systemic failure for the country. He took the students through the story of how things started and took shape to make banking in India a lucrative sector.
Post liberalisation (in the early 1990s) when government of India allowed private entities to hold on to banks, a lot of changes took shape in the industry. He shed light on the transition of banking sector from being a Seller's market to a customer's market. The sector has seen dramatic changes in the skillsets required by the sector from being defined and clerical to more technology equipped, customer oriented and innovative ones. This transition was seen due to the evolution of the banks from being driven to impress the government to becoming customer oriented in the present scenario.
At present, with a lot of RBI and other regulatory authorities coming up with many guidelines in favour of promoting growth of banking sector, many public sector banks have become product oriented. They are chasing customers by coming up with lucrative products to make things easier for their customers like- home loans, car loans, educational loans etc. Quality of assets changed and is improving day by day with upgrading technology. They are lending a helping hand to other sectors to grow. However, there are various challenges that the sector is currently facing in terms of RBI regulations, government interventions and the dynamic customer requirements. The present day banks in India are emerging out as better service providers to mitigate those challenges.
In the end he took up questions from the enthusiastic students and built upon the fact that how the banking sector is becoming an empowering factor for India to be a world leader. It was a very interactive session overall.
Finomenal 2015, Day 2: Guest Lecture – Mr. Shreenivas Kunte, Content Director, CFA Institute – "For writers to stand out, they must report something which has never been discovered."
The students of TAPMI were privileged to be a part of a discussion on Writing Investment Reports by Mr. Shreenivas Kunte, Content Director, CFA Institute. To begin with, he stressed on the importance of writing in the finance industry. Top traders read at least two books a week and that is one of the keys to writing investment reports, he stated.
Moving ahead, he spoke about the various forms of communication used by investment writers these days. These include WhatsApp, emails, Bloomberg reports, LinkedIn and journals. He also spoke about the two behavioral biases – anchoring and herding, which set the benchmark and gives the writer the buying argument respectively. Further, he explained how a trader looks to make gains through his writings by giving a hypothetical example.
Further, he said that too much information is a problem these days and writers need to have the knowledge and skills to be choosy about what to write and which audience to target. The reports should also be detailed and punchy. Time and again, he kept on encouraging the students to indulge in writing investment reports in the form of blogs, stating that it will give them an edge over others whether it comes to interviews or at some point or the other in the future.
He touched on the roles and duties performed by research analysts, fund managers, investment bankers and pointed out the types of reports prepared by them. Written communication has a multiplicative effect and can go viral, he said. To end with, he stated that level of disclosure is a problem faced by Indian companies these days and to add to that the lack of punchy and comprehensive reports was a major quality lacking in Indian investment reports.

Asus Vivo Tab and Asus Vivo Tab RT pictures and hands-on
Asus wants to make your Windows 8 tablet dreams come true, with the announcement of the Asus Vivo Tab and the Asus Vivo Tab RT. The new Transformer-style Windows 8 tablets were announced today at IFA 2012 in Berlin.
The Transformer line has been successful for Asus, helping to drive its Android tablet business, so it's no surprise to see the same concept being applied for Windows 8, for those eagerly awaiting the October launch of Microsoft's OS.
Of course, there are two versions of the Vivo Tab: a straight Windows 8 version and an RT version.
The two tablets are very close in design, but differ in specification. We got our hands on both tablets at the launch, to bring you a glittering gallery of hardware shots and pass on our first impressions.
The smaller of the two is the Asus Vivo Tab RT, pictured first in our gallery below.
It is based around a 10.1-inch 1366 x 768 resolution display and is powered by the Nvidia Tegra 3 chipset, with 2GB RAM, so is very much the mobile device.
In the hand it feels sturdy and well constructed, the metal finish to the back giving it a good-quality feel. The buttons around the side of the tablet, and the build of the accompanying keyboard feel assured: this is Asus showing what it's learnt from the Transformer.
The docking mechanism is solid, but easily released so that when the tablet is in place it feels like a notebook. The Super IPS+ display looked fantastic, but we'll save any real judgement until we can get the Asus Vivo Tab RT in for a full review.
The second of the two devices is the fully-fledged Windows 8 tablet. This time it sports an 11.6-inch, 1366 x 768 display with Wacom digitiser and is powered by next-generation Intel Atom hardware, with 2GB RAM.
Like its smaller sibling, it feels well built and finished. The metal back again makes this feel like a premium device. It might be, in effect, the netbook evolved, but it's so much more than that.
The keyboard is a good size and offers a nice typing action, with the docking mechanism again feeling secure. It's well balanced too, so should make for a practical mobile working machine.
We don't have exact pricing for these new machines from Asus, but you can expect them to be available when Windows 8 comes to market.
We will, of course, be bringing you a full review of the Asus Vivo Tab and the Asus Vivo Tab RT closer to launch.

One of them, "Black Mass," comes with a big star, big buzz and the name Whitey Bulger. Exploring The Hoopla And Tension Surrounding 'Black Mass' On the island of Ledo, movie stars arrive from Venice in sleek water taxis trimmed and decked in mahogany and teak.

With that one phrase, she was ready to face her past. Stephen Colbert Pays Tribute To Letterman, Makes 'Late Show' His Own By editor • Sep 9, 2015 If there was a moment that best summed up the inspired, surprising and sometimes uneven nature of Stephen Colbert's debut as host of CBS' Late Show last night, it came toward the program's end.

The Scramble: Bears, Blumenthal, and Boastful Americans By Betsy Kaplan • Aug 31, 2015 PLF73 / Creative Commons Listen Listening... / 49:17 Does it seem like there are a lot of bears in Connecticut? It's hard to have a conversation this summer without someone mentioning they spotted a bear.

Getting to Know Our Iranian-American Neighbors By Betsy Kaplan • Aug 27, 2015 Listen Listening... / 49:16 America and Iran have not had an easy relationship since 1979, when 52 Americans were held hostage for 444 days by students supporting the Iranian Revolution. The resulting rise of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini further weakened the relationship. Have Bass, Will Travel. Nervously By Steve Metcalf • Aug 27, 2015 Hugh Burkhardt / robertblack.org Whatever airline horror story you have about lost or mishandled luggage, I'm pretty sure Robert Black can top it. Robert, as many of you around here know, is a brilliant, nationally recognized double bass player and teacher. He is perhaps best known for being a founding member of the avant-garde music ensemble, the Bang on a Can All-Stars, a group that regularly plays all over the world. Robert has also been a faculty member at The Hartt School for many years, and is currently the chairman of the school's string department. As Killings Unfold On Live TV, Media Consider The Graphic Footage By David Folkenflik • Aug 26, 2015 It's all too raw: the grieving of survivors, the images of carnage, the way we learn of events and the way we consume them. Viewers of the morning show for WDBJ-TV in Roanoke, Va., actually watched the deadly shootings of reporter Alison Parker and videographer Adam Ward. And they watched it live, unexpectedly, without warning. So did the program's anchors, who were themselves shocked, initially uncomprehending, appalled.

Maine lobsterman plays it safe; revving up for next year's races
"I didn't know if there were any lobsters left," says John Ellis, sternman on the 38-foot lobster boat Rough Rider III, talking about the landings during the summer, when a day's catch barely filled a small barrel. But by the time October rolled around, the lobsters had moved in and the container on the stern that holds 1,000 pounds was being filled more often than not.

Too much of some good things
By Wesley Loy
Norman Van Vactor manages the weathered Peter Pan salmon cannery at Dillingham, Alaska, and he's seen plenty of drama in his 31 seasons in Bristol Bay: run failures, fishermen's strikes, the economic devastation of fish farming, not to mention a fire that came within a whisker of devouring his century-old plant last year.

Staying afloat saves maintenance costs, vessels and lives
Based on U.S. Coast Guard reports
On Dec. 3, 2003, a 71-foot, wooden-hulled fishing vessel out of Scranton, N.C., was transiting from the Atlantic Ocean into Oregon Inlet Channel when the vessel began to take on water from a busted plank in the port bow, which had not been maintained properly.
NMFS has awarded 16 grants totaling more than $2.5 million as part of its Bycatch Reduction Engineering Program.
The program supports the development of technological solutions and changes in fishing practices designed to minimize bycatch and aims to to find creative approaches and strategies for reducing bycatch, seabird interactions, and post-release mortality in federally managed fisheries.Read more...

A federal appeals court has ruled that all pharmacy owners in Washington state are required to dispense emergency contraceptives even if it's against their religious beliefs.
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco has overturned a lower court ruling that had said the Board of Pharmacy regulations that require pharmacies to stock and dispense the emergency contraceptive Plan B were unconstitutional, according to Reuters.
The lower court ruling in a lawsuit filed in 2007 by Stormans owners of Ralph's Thriftway in Olympia, and two pharmacists was challenged by Washington state and Planned Parenthood, after. more >>
The Supreme Court's recent decision to make gay marriage legal nationwide was a significant victory for liberals. In next year's election, however, the decision will hurt Democrats. Success, after all, presents it own set of challenges.
As sociologists Mayer Zald and Roberta Ash pointed out in their classic 1966 study of social movement organizations, the two biggest challenges of a social movement are complete success and complete failure (Social Forces 44 (March)).
The ideal situation for maintaining a social movement, they wrote, would be to "over time always [seem] to be getting closer to its goal without quite attaining it." more >>
Kierra Sheard's dreams of becoming a clothing designer have officially come to fruition, but not without the gospel singer facing her fair share of challenges. Nonetheless, Sheard says she's holding onto her faith so God can get the glory for her Eleven60 fashion line.
The 28-year-old singer-turned-entrepreneur debuted pieces from her fall and winter plus-sized collection Eleven60 at www.MyEleven60.com earlier this summer. The singer told The Christian Post that her line combines quality and stylish garments for more than just women in church, but everyday women who wear size 10 and over.
As a judge on the BET reality TV gospel singing competition "Sunday Best," fans of the singer and the show will see her wear pieces from her new clothing line. But Sheard explains to CP that the road to premiering her Eleven60 pieces was fraught with hardships. more >>
An appeals court panel has ruled unanimously against a family-owned pharmacy suing Washington for an exemption to the state's birth control mandate.
A three judge panel from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that Ralph's Thriftway must provide birth control items like the Plan B pill, which could be an abortifacient under certain circumstances, reversing a lower court decision.
Arguments were heard last November before Judges Susan P. Graber, Richard R. Clifton, and Mary H. Murguia. Graber authored the panel's opinion. more >>
An order of nuns has filed an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court in an effort to seek exemption from having to conform to the rules of the federal government's birth control mandate accommodation for para-church groups.
The Little Sisters of the Poor filed the request for relief from the Health and Human Services mandate Thursday after the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals recently ruled against them.
"The Little Sisters of the Poor are Catholic nuns who devote their lives to caring for the elderly poor. The government has put them to the impossible choice of either violating the law or violating the faith upon which their lives and ministry are based," reads the appeal. more >>
Within the past couple weeks, three separate national polls have been conducted on the issue of same-sex marriage. Interestingly, each of these three polls shows a decline in support for it. Both Ipsos/Reuters and Gallup conducted polls in early July — just days after the Supreme Court handed its ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges. Both polls found a slight decline in the percentage of Americans who support same-sex marriage as compared to previous polls that each firm conducted earlier this spring.
Additionally, a third poll by the AP found that only 42 percent of Americans support same sex marriage. This is a decline of 6 points from the organization's last poll on the issue in April. It also found a significant increase in percentage of people — 59 percent in June vs. only 52 percent in April — who said wedding-related businesses with religious objections should be allowed to refuse service to gay and lesbian couples.
These findings are more significant than many observers realize. Historically, Supreme Court rulings tend legitimize certain policies in the eyes of the public — foror instance, good data from the General Social Survey (GSS) indicates that there were gains in support for legal abortion after the Roe v. Wade decision. It is interesting that support for same sex marriage did not increase in the days after the Obergefell decision. more >>
