Written By Attorney Lester Rosen, Founder & CEO of Employment Screening Resources (ESR)
Employment laws in the United States will become more fragmented as cities and states continue to pass their own laws on hiring in 2015. These new laws will cover a wide variety of areas within the employment screening process including "Ban the Box" laws for job applications, criminal records, privacy on social media, and credit checks. The trend toward localization – particularly on the local, county, or city level – can have the effect of discouraging employers from setting up operations or hiring in places that place an undue burden on doing business. This trend is number 3 on the Employment Screening Resources (ESR) 8th Annual 'ESR Top Ten Background Check Trends for 2015.'

The year of 2011 was a real challenge for one of our favorite marinas along the central North Carolina coastline. In January (2011), a disastrous boat fire swept through part of McCotters Marina, destroying any number of vessels. Many of you subsequently participated in the Cruisers' Recovery Fund sponsored jointly by the Salty Southeast Cruisers' Net and Waterway Guide, to help bring relief to those whose boats were lost or heavily damaged. And, that fund raising effort was a RESOUNDING SUCCESS!
Then, as mentioned below, in August, Hurricane Irene rained more destruction on this facility! Two of the remaining covered slips/boathouses were destroyed.
Well, things have really looked up since then for this SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS' NET SPONSOR!!! Check out all the many improvements and recovery efforts described below, and then, PLEASE, whenever possible, patronize this facility. Captain Mark Henley, marina owner, and his fine staff will make you feel more than welcome!
McCotters Marina Update
February 2012
McCotters Marina is better than ever! Even though 2011 presented some challenges for this North Carolina landmark our full service marina and boat yard is bouncing back stronger than ever.
As many of you may know a boat fire in January spread to the docks, destroying the North Boat House that had stood watch over Broad Creek for over a half century. Then hurricane "Irene†stormed through in August claiming the two remaining boat houses. These two events brought an end the "boat house era†at McCotters.
Through it all the McCotters Crew has continued to serve the boating community providing dockage, on-land storage, boat repair, maintenance, custom canvas and sails, sail repair, rigging, boat brokerage and a ships store.
Going forward McCotters will be in the unique position of offering the regions most experienced repair and maintenance crew combined with new docks. We are excited to report that three of the four docks are already open and construction of the fourth dock is well under way with completion within weeks.
The McCotters crew wishes to thank its many loyal customers for their continued support over the last year and invites boating friends old and new to come be a part of the rebirth going on at McCotters.
New slips available on a first come first served basis. Come see us!

It doesn't matter what Embarrassing Mum does, it won't ever be quite right. I'm old. I don't understand how things work these days. I don't know what 'everyone else' does or has. I certainly don't know how to be cool (and that's probably not even the right word) like 'everyone else's' mum.
And so, I begin the task of continuing my relationship with Toby (12, but far more knowledgable than you could possibly imagine) when he is beginning to push me away to form his own sense of identity, separate from me and even from our family. It's a daunting prospect.
And it's a very strange feeling to watch my child, the one I cradled in my arms, sung to in the middle of the night and taught how to wee in the toilet, pulling away from me. Of course, he doesn't know that I know what he's doing. He just thinks that I am clueless about the whole thing. I've always been old. I was never his age. And yet, I find myself remembering being 12 and feeling shocked that Toby is as old as I was then. I remember boyfriends to awkwardly hold hands with, giggling girly friends to meet in the town (2pm, outside 'Boots', every Saturday) and feelings of being desperate to grow up.
It's time to let go again. I need to let go, but hold on at the same time. He needs me to be his safety and security as he begins to tip toe out into this world of girls (not yet), school results, new friendships and fads. As all around him turns into a whirlwind of confusing thoughts, decisions, dilemmas and not to mention changing bodies, he needs his parents to be the boring ones who stay constant.
So, I'll be Embarrassing Mum with pleasure, as long as (when nobody is watching) he will still come and give me a hug and tell me he loves me.

Palestine City Manager Wendy Ellis released a press statement in regards to the controversy surrounding Police Chief Robert Herbert and a survey that shows members of his department have zero confidence in him and his managerial skills.
The city council met last night to discuss the survey and met in executive session to decide the chief's fate with the city.
"The chief of police and the city council heard a great deal of comment regarding the issues in the police department. There were also a large number of comments regarding the positive steps the chief and the department have made to improve community relations. The city council and the city manager will take immediate steps to work with the chief of police, and the line officers, to improve operation of the police department and to develop an improvement plan to address the specific issues facing the department."

It did not happen because Democrats don't commit vote fraud
What follows can't be true because Democrats don't commit vote fraud. Ever. And it's racist to allege that vote fraud ever happens. But a Maryland/Florida Democrat is dropping out of the race for Congress anyway.
A Maryland Democratic candidate quit her congressional race Monday after her own party told state officials that she had committed fraud by voting in both Maryland and Florida in recent elections.
Wendy Rosen, a small-business owner running against freshman Rep. Andy Harris (R) in the Eastern Shore-based 1st Congressional District, released a statement saying that "with great regret, and much sorrow" she was resigning from the contest.
"Personal issues have made this the hardest decision that I have had to make," Rosen said
Rosen's announcement came the same day the state Democratic party released a letter to state Attorney General Douglas Gansler and state prosecutors reporting the allegations against Rosen.
"Personal issues," like possible prison time.
Republicans thanked the Democrats appropriately for rooting out this fraud:
"If the Maryland Democrat Party is willing to push one of its own candidates out of the race due to voter fraud, I'm sure this means they will join us in an effort to purge the rolls across Maryland of illegal immigrants, the deceased, and those otherwise unqualified to vote," said David Ferguson, executive director of the Maryland Republican Party.
Yeah, that's not going to happen.
In case you're wondering, the Democrats can now put someone else on the ballot.

Sean Clohessy insists it is still too early to panic over Colchester United's winless start to the season.
But the U's attacking right-back admits they need to chalk up their first victory sooner, rather than later.
Colchester have failed to win any of their opening five league and cup matches and have taken one point from a possible 12, in League One.
And while he stressed it is too soon to worry about the U's lowly position in League One, Clohessy admits they must start turning their potential into points.
Clohessy said: "You don't want to be going ten, 11 or 12 games without winning and having people asking when the first win is going to happen.
"We need to get it as soon as possible.
"It's still really early in the season and there are still 40-odd games to play.
"But you don't want a gap building between you and the next team above you.
"We need to get that first win, because it becomes a bit of an omen otherwise.
"We know that we need to start picking up some wins quite quickly.
"It's never easy to pick yourselves up after a defeat.
"But we have a full week of training now and that will help us go into the Peterborough game with a solid game plan.
"That win will come – there's no-one panicking and it's still very early."

Hat Tip: Owen Brennan at the PJ Tatler
Rodney, you may be concerned about the debt, but Republican mover n shakers are even less concerned about the fiscal 'debt crisis' than the Dems..The Ryan budget calls for an increase in the debt ceiling and deficit. What they want is a permanent plutocracy, more income inequality, even less taxes for the rich, and a continuation of their pet tax breaks, hence they are getting the vapors on possibly losing tax breaks for corporate jets.
Taxes are the lowest, for the rich, since 1950, which will mean less revenue for the government , a futher reprise of the Bush Dubya years, plus a widening military, more Ayn Rand economics, with true religion thrown as red meat for their apologists like Jay and believers such as Rick
As for the American enterpreurial spirit, that this side is always bleating about, it is well known that the only entrepreneurs that use their own money are the failed ones, the successful ones use other people´s money, mainly the bank´s who end up being bailed out often as not by the taxpayer..
Bullshit at it's best.
"Taxes are the lowest, for the rich, since 1950, which will mean less revenue for the government ,"
That's not a bad thing. Government is feeling the pressure to deal with their foolish expenditures over the years which will only grow until People who are serious about living within ones means are in power. Will likely collapse first, but you vote fools in year after year with no accountability and we have to clean up their free lunch mess.
Crickmore, you are a complete, 100% idiot if you believe even 1% of what you post here.
Obama tripled the deficit in his first year, and in February presented a budget adding $600 billion a year to the debt going forward with no end in sight. He couldn't even get a single Democratic vote in the Senate for it, promised a replacement budget but once again lied.
Ryan's budget did add to the debt for the first few years, but at least it made an attempt to rein in the growth of spending and entitlements. And Democrats squealed like stuck pigs at that.
We don't have a revenue problem beyond the massive unemployment caused by Obama's anti-business and anti-energy policies and regulatory attitude of rule by fiat like a dictator. Few companies will dare to hire and expand when they cannot predict the costs even one year down the road.
As to "taxing the rich," if you collected Obama's vaunted "corporate jet tax break" money for 5000 years, you would only cover his defict for a little over one month. It's a diversion. "Tax the rich?" Hell, if you just confiscated every bit of money and property from every American millionaire, you couldn't run the country for a year.
Our problem is Democrats' drastic and insane spending, which began with Pelosi and Reid in 2007 and got worse under Obama. We need to cut it now, and we don't need more revenue to do that.
Why don't you just move to a socialist paradise like North Korea?
A Party which FAILED to introduce, let alone debate nor pass, budgets over a two year period when they controlled both houses of Congress AND the White House is delinquent in their Constitutional duties and demonstrably un-concerned with fiscal sobriety.
Sure Obama´s stimulus bill may have have been wasteful, following Bush´s costly 2003 medicare prescription bill and unfunded Iraq and Afgnhanistan wars plus the drastic reduced taxes for the wealthy. Let us call it even!
What can we do now? I agree federal tax policies should be much more hiring friendly. Why even have a payroll tax? Begin a process to single payer health plans.Why should employers have to cover expensive health plans of workers etc. Everything should be done to encourage employment.
Reveune shortfalls could be increased by taxing hedge funds, capital gains, the same as other forms of income, and so on.
But the GOP seems more focused on preserving the comfortable CEOs, than reducing unemployment .After tax corporate profits and productivity are already up, because of streamlining. There is little incentive to change.
Triple the deficit under Bush and call it even? Hell, you aren't slicing pie at my house!
Blame it on the Kool Aid.
Mr. Crickmore,
" Why even have a payroll tax?" Because St. Franklin started a retirement program called "Social Security." That's how the retirement supplement was "supposed" to be funded. Later, St. Lyndon added a medical insurance program for the elderly called "Medicare." More was added to the payroll tax to fund that.
Do you know what encourages employers? The assumption that if they hire someone, they will make a return on investment from the money they pay employees (Oh, the Greed!). If you tax those employers at 38%, or 50%, or 70% rates, the return on investment from hiring goes down. Why risk your money if your return is going to be taxed away? The employer portion of payroll tax is 7.65% – do you think that eliminating this would have a significant impact on hiring? What would have a greater impact: Reducing payroll tax by 7.65% or increasing income taxes on my profits by 10% (or 20% or whatever)? Please think about it – maybe even do the math.
Math is not a strong point among the left…
I am doing the math. After deductions, real corporate profits are taxed about 25%, the top weighted income tax is what 33%, capital gains, hedge funds about 15%..These are profits after expenses and deductions. What do you think is fairer way of paying for the miltary which so behooves the right and en toto, costs about 50 % of government revenue.Fix the spiralling medical costs, cut the military by a third, and the USA could practically be a tax haven!
Whatever, you do US multinational corporations, even headed by nominal patriots like George Bush Junior, Harken oil, headquartered in Cayman Islands, Dick Cheney, Haliburton in Dubai, or Rupert Murdoch, American citizen owner of News Corp and Fox News 152 subsidaries in offshore tax havens, are not going to pay any corporate taxes in the US, if they can help it, just as they won´t serve in the forces if they can help it?They are looking for refunds and corporate welfare!
Mr. Crickmore,
I don't think you "get it." Most small businesses are "S" Corps or LLC's – they are flow through tax entities and the owners pay the tax at their personal rates. On top of that, we pay 15% "self employment" tax on our LLC income – that's the payroll tax of which you spoke. If your business is growing (rare in President Obama's America) and you need to buy more than replacement inventory, you pay for that with after tax money. What do you do for a living that you don't know this?
Texas Accountant,
Be careful what you ask. You may get way more information than you want, and visuals that may haunt you for years…
Taxes aren´t my strong suit but . I would have thought the Bush administration tax cuts, followed by more tax cuts would have done that already; lowered taxes for small businesses, but then Bush seemed more interested in just lowering taxes for the wealthy, on those who weren´t necessarily reinvesting or trying to grow their small business per se. Economists have said that reducing taxes on the wealthy are not per dollar, an effective way of growing the economy, given how much revenue we lose.
Everybody has their own opinion but to see how we got into this debt crisis read from a budgetary surplus.
Mr. Crickmore,
Your statement, "Economists have said that reducing taxes on the wealthy are not per
dollar, an effective way of growing the economy, given how much revenue
we lose."
Who loses the revenue when we get to keep more of our money? And how does this hamper the growth of the economy? Since the current tax rates were passed by a Democratically controlled congress and signed into law by a Democratic President, they are now the "Obama Tax Cuts." If you want to call them the "Obama Tax Rates," I'm OK with that.
Naturally, we get to keep more of own money, even though the value of the US dollar is less, with more borrowing less revenue.That was last year, Obama tax cuts- a moratorium of one year for those earning over two hundred thousand as I recall.How does this hamper the growth of the economy? It just means the government has to borrow more, to pay its responsibilities, more interest on the debt, which is what 12% of the federal budget now.Eventually we might go down the trajectory of Greece Its citizens work hard, they have lots of benefits, but there is gross dereliction of paying taxes.
The other point, the rich don.t necessaritly spend their extra earned money in the economy. They just save it,This is what economists talk about. It is not circulated in the economy as much as would be if poorer people had it or the government,Hey, Im not denying that it is their money to do with what.ever they want, but this is what economists tell us

Bisnis Bali reports that the Chairman of the Bali Tourism Board (BTB), Ida Bagus Ngurah Wijaya has called on the government to "open wide the tap" and allow foreign airlines access to Bali if current plans to increase the size of the Island's tourism sector are to be successful. According to Wijaya, the continuing financial problems and safety issues confronting Garuda Indonesia, and the haphazard development of the domestic aviation sector are some of the main factors stunting the growth of national tourism.The solution at hand, according to the BTB boss is to liberalize access to Bali for foreign airlines. He also cited the heavy demand from certain markets such as China, Taiwan, South Korea and Russia, where demand often outstrips seat capacity to Bali.

Guided Paths and Trails
Please note we are currently upating this map and some rollovers may not work whilst we do.
St Cuthbert's Way
6 days walking, based in Melrose
St Cuthbert's Way is a classic 62 mile (100km) excursion which commences at the fine abbey town of Melrose, close to where St Cuthbert began his ministry in around 650AD, and reaches its terminus on Holy Island, where he later became Prior of Lindisfarne. During his lifetime St Cuthbert travelled widely spreading the gospel, and after his death his body was removed from Lindisfarne by devoted monks fleeing from the Vikings. The route of this walk ties together some of the places associated with St Cuthbert's story. More
Coleridge Way
5 days walking, based in Lynmouth
The Coleridge Way is an exhilarating 52 mile (84km) walk through the Quantock Hills (Britain's first designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), the Brendon Hills and Exmoor National Park. The route celebrates the association of the romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge with the airy ridges, wooded valleys and hilltop vistas which inspired much of his work.. More
Pennine Way
The Pennine Way, which follows the backbone of England from the Derbyshire Peak District to the Scottish border is one of Britain's most challenging National Trails. The 268 mile route, which passes through three National Parks, a European Geo-park, and a World Heritage Site, provides upland walking of the highest order. Footpath Holidays offers the route as three separate holidays, which allow guests the choice of completing the route over several years in manageable one week stages, or stringing all three together into an epic journey. More
A Pennine Journey
6 days walking, based in Hawes
In 1938, with the shadow of war looming, Alfred Wainwright took some holiday and set off for a circular walk which would take him north from Settle, along the eastern flank of The Pennines and through the Yorkshire Dales, along one of the finest stretches of Hadrian's Wall, and then back down the western flank of the Pennines to his original start point. A Pennine Journey is broadly based upon his challenging route.
Over a period of three years we are offering successive sections of A Pennine Journey, giving guests the opportunity to complete this challenging route in manageable stages. In 2016 we shall start the process by offering the eastern section from Settle in the Yorkshire Dales to High Force in Teesdale. More
Offa's Dyke Path North
8 days walking, based in Llangollen
This 97 mile (156km) northern section of Offa's Dyke Path, starts in the market town of Knighton in Mid-Wales and finishes in the resort of Prestayn on the North Wales Coast. The route passes through a wonderful variety of mid-Wales and north Wales countryside, including the spectacular limestone hills around Llangollen and the wild moorland of the Clwydian Hills. More
Coast to CoastThe route which crosses the north of England from Coast to Coast was made famous by the late Alfred Wainwright whose guidebooks have introduced so many to the joys of walking in this area. It takes in three National Parks; the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and the North Yorkshire Moors and divides naturally into three sections. Footpath Holidays offers three tours, each of which offer fine walking in their own right, and when strung together enable our guests to tackle a challenging 190 mile route in its entirety. More
Wales Coast Path
The Wales Coast Path was opened in 2012; the world's first continuous path around an entire national coastline. The total distance, including the circuit of Anglesey, is 861 miles.

A man who was carjacked by alleged cop killer Christopher Dorner in California's Big Bear mountains on Tuesday escaped only seconds before a deadly shootout began.
"I was happy that he let me go and had me take my dog," Rick Heltebrake told Savannah Guthrie on TODAY Wednesday. "I got to tell you, not more than 10 seconds after that I was walking up the road, and that's when I heard a volley of gunfire. At that point I bailed into the snow and hid behind a tree and called the local deputy up here on his personal cell phone and told him what was going on. That's when everything started happening and then I found out later what was happening with those gunshots."
Late Tuesday, investigators found charred human remains in a California mountain cabin where they believe Dorner was holed up. The former Los Angeles police officer is accused of killing three people in a rampage that started on Feb. 3 and was the target of the largest manhunt in Los Angeles history.
Dorner is believed to have tied up two women who came to clean the cabin, which is across the street from a police station, and then stole their car. After crashing the car, authorities then believe he encountered Heltebrake and stole his truck. Heltebrake was about half a mile from the highway checking a property on which he runs a Boy Scout camp.

Ron Paul's House is For Sale
Ron Paul is a medical doctor, a Congressman, and libertarian (but Republican registered) presidential candidate in 2008. He was the second most searched for person back in September of 2007 after Paris Hilton. Supposedly, in the primaries, he received more votes from the 18 to 25 year olds than any other candidate, Republican or Democrat. (What is ironic is that he was the oldest candidate at the time.)
Now his house is up for sale in Lake Jackson, Texas for $325,000. The size is about 5,500 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 2 with lofts, 5 bathrooms, and an oversize pool. This has generated a lot of interest from those that want to use it as a libertarian retreat, a libertarian museum, or just a nice home to live in just ten minutes from the beach.

All quotes by Brandon Stokley
(25 quotes found)
"He always makes plays in clutch situations. Get on the board early, get the touchdown on the board, [that] was huge for us. It gave us confidence, it gave us momentum, and it seemed like we just fed off that."
"How he works, in practice every day, is what sets him apart. When I got here what I noticed was how hard him and Peyton work together. It's not by accident what they do on the football field on Sundays."
"They're fighting for their playoff lives right now. They need a win bad, so we're going to have to play good football to win. It's not going to be an easy game."
"It breaks your heart to see something like that happen to such a great person. We're just going to pray for him and ask everybody else to pray for him."
"He was great. He came to the hospital often, even after the season. Even after we lost to New England [in the AFC championship game], he still showed up. I think that just shows you what kind of man he is."
"What separates him is how he respects you and how he cares for you off the field, not just on the field. When my son was in the hospital, he went out of his way to come and visit even after the season was over, when he didn't have to do that and when he was a busy man. That just showed a lot to me, what kind of person he is."
"The game helped us to put what happened out of our minds a little bit. He wanted us to come out and play. It was tough for all of us. We wanted to come out and play well, and we didn't play as well as we liked."

Terry DeLeo has been hired as Vice President of sales and brings over 20 years of sales experience to Jaysport. DeLeo was instrumental in creating the selling strategies and sales network for all of the snowboard brands at Ride Snowboards. DeLeo has been involved in all aspects of this industry, from being a sales representative on the road all over the United States to establishing distribution in all international markets. His experience should open up many new avenues of distribution for the all the brands in Jaysportís quiver. DeLeo also stated, ìwith the our improved paths of distribution and the additions of Mike and Jack, we have the strength in marketing and product development to move forward to design and sell great product supported with a strong image. I can honestly say that a companyís strength, especially in this industry, is dictated by the people they have in key positions, and these two are the best in the business at what they do. I am truly confident in their abilities and I know my job has just become a lot easier.î
Mike Hall has been hired as Vice President of operations and has been working for 10 years in the snowboard industry. His most recent experience was with Ride Snowboards and prior to that he worked with Burton. Hall fills a critical role in product development and production for Jaysport. Also, Hall adds strong skills and knowledge of operational systems and distribution. Hall stated, ìmy job and goal is 2-fold here at Jaysport. First, to create and deliver quality products on time, and second to consolidate all of our operations into one clean flowing system that makes it easy for our customers to do business with us.î
Jack Coghlan has been hired as vice president of marketing, and brings his 17 years in the snowboard industry to the table. Coghlan was one of the early pioneers in the snowboarding business dating back to 1982 as a production assistant with Burton Snowboards. Most recent, Coghlan had established the professional team as the promotional manager with Ride Snowboards. Coghlan also was involved in all aspects of marketing. ìIíve always had a great respect for the strength of the brands that Jaysport has acquired, and after seeing how the company operates, and the direction it is headed, it was an easy decision for me to join the team,î Coghlan stated.
Jaysport with headquarters in Calabasas, California was established in July of 1994. Jaysport is a leading manufacturer and marketer of snowboards, sports equipment and menís apparel under the brands Atlantis, Type A, Division 23 and Kemper.

There are positives for all three members of the 2013-14 Arizona Wildcats to take away from this weekend's leg of the U19 USA Basketball tryouts.
Article Continues Below
Incoming phenom Aaron Gordon's are apparent. The centerpiece of head coach Sean Miller's 2013 signing class is receiving a top flight introduction to the college game, playing alongside players who have successfully made the transition like Damyean Dotson and reigning Big 12 Conference Player of the Year Marcus Smart.
Gordon also is receiving instruction from a coaching staff that includes two-time national champion Billy Donovan and 2011 Final Four participant Shaka Smart. Altogether, it's the basketball equivalent of receiving tutoring from prize-winning professors before embarking on one's first college courses.
Gordon has passed his exams with flying colors - operative word, flying - and earned one of 12 roster spots Monday night. Rave reviews are coming out of Colorado, including a video of the forward throwing down an alley-oop over one of his USA teammates.
The workouts and challenges give Gordon a foundation for his college career, while also setting the bar on the highly touted prospect.
Gordon's soon-to-be Wildcat teammates Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Brandon Ashley were cut on Sunday, before the final round. As a second-year college player who proved his worth during the 2012-13 season, Ashley's exclusion is particularly surprising.
He improved in all phases of his game, emerging as a vital cog in UA's Sweet 16 run.
While the slight has to be disappointing for Ashley, it should also serve as motivation. And he need look no further than the McKale Center rafters for inspiration.
Wildcat legend Sean Elliott was left off the 1988 Olympic team, the last American Olympics squad comprised of college players. Elliott's snub was even more surprising than Ashley's, as Elliott was coming off a Final Four appearance and All-American honors.
His exclusion from the Olympic team became a motivator in the following season, and all Elliott did was set the Pac-10 Conference scoring record, land on the All-American team once again, and garner National Player of the Year awards.
Aspects of Ashley's game are reminiscent of Elliott: his size; his soft, mid-range shooting touch; his ever-improving ability to finish in traffic. Ashley can bring it full circle by using his snub to toughen up as Elliott did.
With UA losing Grant Jerrett and Angelo Chol this offseason, it needs the remaining frontcourt to step up to a higher level. A more seasoned Gordon and motivated Ashley are capable of doing just that.

Jenna Hatfield, Section Editor here at BlogHer, had a rare opportunity to speak to an amazing woman, Tara Hunt, who sadly cannot participate at BlogHerEntrepreneurs but whose story is one to hear.
Tara talks about her business, her journey and why BlogHerEntrepreneurs is so important to women with big ideas:
I wouldn't have survived the last few years of business without being surrounded by fellow female entrepreneurs. I get the best advice, camaraderie, connections, support and ideas from other female founders. Aside from the sage wisdom you will get from the presenters and sessions, you will find bonds that will get you through the craziest times in your fellow attendees.
Read more of the interview and register today for BlogHerEntrepreneurs!
Now onto a different note...
A while back I received a lovely email from Frelle, a past attendee of BlogHer '11, who wanted to share her story about one of our amazing conference sponsors, Hallmark. Frelle's post is a heartfelt and lovely expression of the power of words, friends and real communication. Here is a small portion of her post:
BlogHer's 2011 conference and the Hallmark Suite contributed to creating a lot of special communication, deep bonds of friendship, and important memories. The encouragement from the staff planning the suite at BlogHer to gift others with hand-witten cards in the age of tweets, texts, e-cards, and blog comments shows a true commitment to real communication. I'm so grateful to have had an opportunity to give my words to my friends in such a memorable and significant way.
Take a moment, take a breath and read Frelle's post, it might inspire you to write that long over due note.
Until next time...

Manno Bhabhi begs Amrit to work his miracle on Kaveri and save her life, so he replies that he has no powers after stepping into the materialistic world. Just then, the doctor informs everyone that Kaveri has given birth to a baby girl and the mother and baby are doing fine. Samar thanks Kaveri for giving him his life's best gift. Ambica suggests to Kaveri that she hand over the baby to Nahar first as he had saved Kaveri's life by not letting her fall on the ground. Ambica asks Nahar to name the child too, so he names her Kamini. Later at night, Shweta begins to cry, so Amrit picks her and pacifies her. Amrit tells Saloni that holding babies has made him feel like he has attained salvation! Saloni says that having a child in one's family makes one complete, and mentions that Nahar was a very good father. Urvashi overhears Nahar saying that he was searching for God in mountains, when he can see God in children! She wonders what Nahar meant by the statement. Saloni takes Shweta and Sawri to the temple along with Nahar. Savitri thanks God for her daughter's good fortune. Urvashi seizes the opportunity and searches Saloni's room for clues. Luck favours her when she finds Holy Texts and a rosary, and realises that the impostor is a Brahmin. She decides to expose Nahar. At the temple, Saloni mentions to Amrit the dreams that Nahar had weaved for his daughters. She regrets that his dreams remained unfulfilled and she will have to be a father and a mother to them. Amrit asserts that he will never let the children miss a father and he will fulfil their dreams. Amrit then recalls his promise to his mother. Meanwhile, Urvashi prepares a chicken dish, so Tara orders her out of the kitchen. Savitri puts chicken pieces on Amrit's plate, so Saloni and Nahar are shocked. Urvashi insists that Nahar eat it as it's his favourite dish. Bhabho asks Saloni to feed it to him. What will Saloni do now?

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Trinity Boston Foundation Inc, Boston, MA, USA
As a second-year social work student, I worked at Trinity Boston Counseling Center (TBCC), which is part of Trinity Boston Foundation (TBF). From the very beginning the staff welcomed us (as interns) as part of the staff. The group has a unique client-focused approach to providing counseling for its clients. The staff is extremely seasoned--some of the clinicians have been practicing for over 30 years! As an intern, I provided individual counseling at TBCC and also worked at their offsite program, Street Potential--a program that provides life skills and vocational training to court- and gang-involved youth. TBCC uses several frameworks that truly show how client-centered they are in their counseling work. The team has a superb understanding of trauma and uses a trauma-informed framework in working with clients. This means an extra level of sensitivity is applied as they work with clients. As well, TBCC's open-minded approach to integrating spirituality with counseling allows the client to define whether, what, and how spirituality nourishes them emotionally or needs healing. As well, Trinity Boston Foundation staff are very open-minded, focused, and sensitive to the goals and approach of TBCC. Due to the fact that TBCC is part of Trinity Foundation (and affiliated with Trinity Church) there is an amazing sense of observing sacred space together. As clinicians we always thought about the sacred space we were developing with our clients. For instance, how is it defined by our clients, ourselves as clinicians, and by our interaction with each other in relationship? In staff meetings we regularly took moments at the beginning of each meeting to observe the sacred space created by the presence of those in the room (and often those who were missing) and what we would be discussing next. This type of meditation on space might seem small to some, but it meant that everyone was present in the moment to discuss topics at hand. The staff at Trinity are extremely seasoned, as I have said before, but they are always integrating new ways of applying knowledge acquired through relationship with clients, consultants, interns, and each other. There is a strong sense of team, collaboration, respect, gratitude, and taking into account "the whole picture" as well as one can.

Review for The Albert Schweitzer Fellowship, Boston, MA, USA
Participating in the fellowship for the 2009-10 year deeply enhanced my skills as a social worker, a participant in the healthcare community, and solidified my commitment to service. I met weekly with two groups of court-involved young men teaching meditation. In the end, I found my students teaching me what they believed meditation to be. Instead of a practice of stillness, they developed a practice of meditation that wasn't about the "ohm" and sitting in the lotus position--but one of valuing time for reflection. We explored different ways to build a space for reflection. Through monthly meetings with my Schweitzer fellows, we learned about health disparities and delivering culturally competent solutions that were built collaboratively with our clients. The monthly speakers were a catalyst for our discussions and growth. The other fellows come from very diverse backgrounds--working towards master's in music, veterinary/medical/psychiatric nursing degrees, dental students, occupational therapists, public health candidates, and so much more. Meeting in fellowship with my colleagues was inspiring when you saw the challenges they came against and the insightful and innovative ways they implemented their projects within communities--and how they figured out how to make them sustainable. I found my project to be so enriching and focusing in my development as a clinical and macro social worker. The guiding mission set forth by Albert Schweitzer for "Reverence for life" through a life of service becomes strong within the fellows in their project year, but for myself, and, as for many fellows, it becomes a way of life.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I have found that this fellowship has deepened my commitment to service and strengthened my resolve to follow a career path where I can take my clinical work and use it to change systems.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would like to see this organization spread its mission by taking on fellows who are in career transitions, who might be in a certificate or degree programs in that process.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
Fellowship in service, enrichment of my development as a social worker within the project, being stimulated and supported by the ideas and actions of other fellows, speakers, and our program director.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
Sensitive, intelligent, insightful, supportive, inspiring, encouraging.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Invigorate a generation of people who believed in service. So many people would like to do what we did over the past year--I had so many people say so to me. Yet, so many cannot because they have jobs/salaries and fiscal responsibilities.
Ways to make it better...
There was a way to do another fellowship project years from now, when I've been working for 5-10 years.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
Finding funding dollars, I would imagine. They manage their money extremely well and give their heart and their minds to this fellowship in the way they designed it.

FRISCO, Texas — FC Dallas know exactly what they have to do in order to emerge from their five-game winless streak at the Columbus Crew on Saturday night (6:30 p.m. CT, Fox Sports Southwest): Score goals.
In their last five matches (0-3-2), FCD have been shut out three times and scored only two goals: both were penalty kicks converted by Brek Shea.
"I think the key to beating Columbus will be scoring some goals," manager Schellas Hyndman said. "That's an easy statement to make, but if you look at our recent performances, we're not scoring. For us to find success, it's got to be scoring goals.
"I don't think we've created enough quality threats to give us repetition. It seems like the player who has the great opportunity is just not putting it away. We just got to finish."
Finishing is what Hyndman wants to see out of his young forward Fabián Castillo (above). In 29 appearances with the club, the 19-year-old has only notched two goals despite creating a slew of scoring opportunities.
"[Finishing] is not one of his strengths," Hyndman said. "He needs to work on it. We need to help him and encourage him. We need more out of him, whether it's finishing or whether it's the final pass."
Against Seattle in a 2-0 midweek loss, Castillo played with energy and wreaked havoc with his blazing speed. However, he failed to finish the opportunities he created due to a lack of control and touch. He had four shots that finished off target and only one that hit the frame.
"Fabián, I think can be the most dynamic player in the league," Hyndman said. "So much of it is the pure speed. What Fabián is learning is to release the ball. Sometimes, he gets too focused on taking on the whole team. Fabián can do a better job on the quality of final balls.
"He's just got to slow down a little bit and find people. What separates him from being a world-class player because he's got all the athleticism, is scoring."
Castillo will be assisted against Columbus by the return of fellow striker Blas Pérez, who served a one-game suspension in midweek. FC Dallas will also be getting back Daniel Hernandez, but Hyndman will still continue to battle a bevy of injuries and a gruesome schedule that has left the team exhausted.
"Right now, Columbus is not having a great year," Hyndman said. "They've never played a midweek game, which is horrible when you look at parity in the league. It seems like we live on midweek games.
"We're going in there tired. We've had two difficult games and now we're playing a team that hasn't played since last Saturday. I think you'll see a fresh team, and we'll have to battle and score goals."

Song of the Day #751
Song of the Day: Persephone (The Gathering of Flowers), words and music by Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard, is a Dead Can Dance track, which is deeply moving (in fact, the first time I heard this track I was moved to tears). The recording features a dramatic layering of melodic strings, woodwinds, and brass (violins, viola, cellos, trombones, tuba, and oboe), percussion (timpani and military snare), and choral harmonies. On this Day of the Dead (All Saints Day too!), listen to an audio clip from the album, "Within the Realm of the Dying Sun."

The keyboard of your computer is one of your most important peripherals, and in all likelihood, it could use a good cleaning. Keyboards have plenty of nooks and crannies where grime and bacteria can build up. And whether or not you're a stickler about closing and protecting your laptop after each use, or never eating on or near its surface, it's going to collect a versatile array of dust and particles anyway. If you're like us, you've been letting it go, since you haven't yet found a great way to clean up. Bürstenhaus Redecker has been handcrafting brushes for over 75 years and constructed this little tool to finally sweep away the particles, both visible and nitty gritty, of your laptop. Since it's a double decker brush with different, specialized hair, you'll be able to tackle the widest variety of media with just the one tool. The anti-static quality of goat hair is ideal for removing small particles, like dust, while the long and course horse hair is great at tackling the harder to get at particles, like cookie crumbs. Redecker believes that maintaining technology can be as simple and pure as this laptop brush. The compact size of this laptop brush makes it easy to carry along in your bookbag or sidebag.
Twist the double decker bush apart and choose which brush to use first. I think it's best to start small with the goat hair brush, and then if you have to, move onto the horse hair brush. Then slowly sweep your keyboard for the best results, vertically and horizontally, for however long to suit your preferences. Caring for your laptop brush is a lot like caring for your hair. Use lukewarm water and a mild shampoo, then wrap it in a towel. The bristles will dry out if you use a heater, so let air dry outside or at room temperature. When it's dry, gently brush out with a metal comb. Store on a metal hook or lay flat. The handle is made of beechwood and relatively non-porous. Items made of beechwood can take a lot of wear and resist chipping-so if you're worried about getting slivers while using your laptop brush, don't be.
When Friedrich Redecker "senior" became blind at the age of four, he was enrolled in the Soest school for the blind. An operation wasn't really an option for him at the time, and at Soest he began training for handcrafting brushes, standard training for the blind. Lucky for Redecker, as this became a lifelong passion, influencing him to create Bürstenhouse Redecker. They are known as one of the last producers of hand-crafted brushes in Germany and have been in business for over seventy-five years. The large majority of their products range in different types of brushes- from hat brushes, to clothes brushes, to this laptop brush (and everything inbetween)-but they also offer beautiful wooden articles, such as the olive wood kitchen utensils. Each product is tested by every member of the Redecker family, as well as its employees. They won't budge when it comes to using natural, renewable resources, and think their philosophy of sustainability should flow into every other crevice of the world.
Double brushes attached by a rivet—one brush made of soft goat hair, the other of a bristly horse hair—suitable for brushing dust and particles from your keyboard. Twist back for use. Made by one of the last brush productions in Germany.

About The Book:
This book contains forty carefully curated mantras that speak to your self care and relationships. Following each mantra is two pages of lined writing space, plus, each mantra is given its own page with plenty of empty space for doodling. Whether you are a novice writer or a professional, these forty mantras and writing prompts are designed to give you clarity and something to think about.
How does each mantra apply to, or manifest itself in your life? Do they remind you of a particular incident or experience? Do they remind you of something you've learned or need to learn? Write it down. In the event a mantra does not inspire you today, skip it and come back to it later.
This guided journaling gives you an opportunity to use your words to heal from, work through, and understand pleasant and not-so-pleasant moments in your life, while challenging your creative and retrospective writing skills.
Write as often as you'd like, taking on one mantra a day or one a week. Set a side a regular day and time to dedicate to your writing. Be sure to sit comfortably, in a quiet space, and give yourself more than enough time to reflect and write. Settle in with a cup of tea or a glass of wine, and your favorite treat. Use this book to release. Use this book to relate. When you've finally finished, look back at your writing and see how much you have grown, and how much your writing has advanced, emotionally and otherwise.

The God Ideal and God's Reality
April 29, 2010
Play Audio of File (Length 32:17)
Part I
Entering the Universel Murad Hassil in Katwijk we see the founding stone on which the following aforism of Hazrat Inayat Khan is written:
"Our soul is blessed with the impresion of the glory of God whenever our lips praise Him."
So just saying the name of God brings great blessing. That shows the great importance of the God Ideal. But in our present culture not much attention is given to the God Ideal. Many people have lost their belief in God because of the conflict between traditional images of God and the discoveries of modern science. Of course scientists cannot find a God somewhere in the skies nor can they discover a divine soul somewhere in our bodies. Now however this conflict completely disappears by further scientific developments and the development of the mystical God Ideal.
Hazrat Inayat Khan introduces the concept of the God Ideal and he explains that it is important for us to make our own God Ideal, but we must realize that that is not God's Reality that Reality is far beyond anything that we can intellectually understand or express in words. But the God Ideal can be seen as a staircase along which we can climb up to that Reality. But then the God Ideal must be evolving with our understanding and spiritual evolution. In building such an evolving God Ideal it is important to see that there are so many different aspects of the God Ideal which can inspire us in different situations in our life. The prayer Saum mentions a number of these aspects in a very beautiful way. Very essential is the mystical aspect: Omnipresent, All Pervading, The Only Being. This is a very fundamental thought. We have to let it penetrate deeply into our mind and heart. For it implies that God is within us and also in everything around us and in all beings around us. This mystical aspect of God solves the conflict with modern science, for science has found that the emptiness, the quantum vacuum in which all the micro-particles circulate, creating all matter, is not really empty but full of an invisible and untouchable energy out of which these micro-particles emerge and into which they can also disappear. So that energy is indeed omnipresent and all pervading and it is working to what science calls 'coherence', we would say 'harmony' and then the parallel with the mystical aspect is clear. This All Pervading aspect is already described beautifully in the Bhagavad Gita: "undivided, He seems to divide into objects and creatures". And in the Christian scriptures we read "In Him we live and move and have our being"
Part II
Now where is this all pervading divine spirit within us and what is it? It is clearly not our physical body that is an instrument with which we can experiemce the earthly life and it is not our psyche with all our thoughts and feelings which change constantly. Out of all our impressions we gradually build a personality. That has a little more constancy. We often identify with it, but that is our big mistake, for this personality is still subject to change and constantly influenced by further events. What is then always remaining? Our consciousness in which all our thoughts and feelings are reflected for a moment and disappear again. Hazrat Inayat Khan says in 'Metaphysics' The soul is an undivided portion of the All Pervading consciousness that is our true being, our divine soul.
As the soul is divine it is also divine light and love and creative power.
But very often we are not at all conscious of that because our attention is directed to the outside world with all its impressions and events. The real purpose of our life is to turn within so that we can become conscious of this divine light and love and creative power. That is mysticism, the inner life.
Of course the All Pervading divine being is also everywhere around us. To become conscious of that we must learn to see the beauty in everything: in nature and also in human beings.
We can then let the light and love of our soul shine out so that we can create harmony and beauty and experience the divine creative power working through us. The ideal of the Sufis is therefore to aim for unity between the inner and outer life.
Part III
The only being is also Omnipotent, All-powerful. We feel that that must be true, but how can we understand it? It is interesting that science has now also discovered this. In the fascinating book by Lynne McTaggart "The Field" we read: "This means that the total energy of the zero point field exceeds all energy in matter of the creation by a factor of ten to the fortieth power: 1 followed by 40 zeroes.
But we see in human society so much suffering and disharmony, that we can ask: "why does an All-Powerful and loving God allow all this to happen?" Then we must keep in mind that He/She has created man as a free and responsible being, so that man can choose one way or another right or wrong. In that way man develops his or her consciousness because wrong choices will create disharmony and make us unhappy.
But sometimes it can happen that the All-Mighty will act directly – although sometimes invisibly – to change something that could endanger the evolution of humanity. Sometimes this happens through what looks like an accident but there can be divine power behind it. It can be the spirit of guidance. So it is very important for us to learn to recognize the spirit of guidance in our life, to listen to it and to follow it. That will help us also to become conscious of the divine power and fulfilling the meaning of our life.
Part IV
The Only Being is also Most Merciful and Compassionate. This means that He/She is not indifferent to what happens in His creation and with His/Her human beings. The Only Being lives in all beings, in everything so that He/She feels the joy and pain of all human beings. All their feelings are reflected in the divine heart, therefore that heart will sometimes reach out to a human being to help, console and uplift. That comes from God's great love and it is a mercy beyond the law of reflection and of cause and effect.
It is a gift that we cannot bring about by our own limited will-power. We can only prepare ourselves to receive it. We can open our heart to let mercy from our own heart work for other people, also breaking through the law of reaction, we can forgive. In God's mercy the Only Being can then bridge a much longer distance to us than the little way that our longing would lift us upwards.
God is also the perfection of love harmony and beauty. Recognizing God's love to us, to all beings and in the whole of creation, we can then naturally – also by that law of reflection – develop our love of God which is the strongest force bringing us to union with God.
Iskh Allah Mah'bud Allah
God is love and the Beloved

My therapist suggested I talk to DS15 and ask him what are the benefits/how does it make you feel to be a ZEBRA (maiden name)? NOT to ask him why don't you want to be a BEAR (married name). It is such a subtle change in words but comes across much more smoother (lack of a better word).
I spoke to my DS15 and he would like to be a ZEBRA because he "wants to represent his clan" (we are mixed ethnicity but identify with Asian culture). We talked about the process ~ about how we would need stbx's signature. I explained the several ways this could all go down:
1. stbx signs paper and he can change his name after I do.
2. stbx does not sign paper and he waits 2 1/2 years to legally change his name AND we inform his school that he would prefer to go by the name DS15 ZEBRA (except on legal documents, report cards, etc)
He said he would feel disappointed and angry if stbx did not sign the paper but understood that in 2 1/2 years, he could legally do it without needing anyones signature.
Part of the reason I am sharing this for those of you who have teens. I had to stop worrying about the "drama" this may cause to stbx and focus on supporting my DS15. I haven't been purposely ignoring my DS15's request but I also hadn't given it my full attention. Now that I understand that it is developmentally appropriate to want to form an identity and he has been consistent in his request, I will now start filling out the forms.
If you have had experience with your teen changing last names before 18, I hope you will share your experience with me.
I hope X agrees but be prepared for a big reaction. These unremorseful WS don't take well to consequences of their action/inaction.
It was also a sign of solidarity with who we felt our true family was, and that we were still a family. A sign of solidarity with each other. The person who left had chosen not to be a member of that family, so we removed his name from it.
How the father absconding from his responsibilities felt about it did not cross any of our minds. If he wanted his name to live on, he needed to live up to it. Ironically, he remarried and had three daughters, so his name is dying out. His four grandchildren (my brother's kids), whom he has never met, all bear my mother's name.
Hooray for ZEBRAS!

Years later, when WS cheated, I was damn glad I hadn't taken his name. Fathers and husbands come and go, apparently, but I will always have me.
hugs to you and your DS, I hope STBX will sign the paperwork needed.
Best thing I gained in my divorce - my freedom.
Life's good.
[This message edited by Bluebird26 at 10:18 PM, March 15th (Saturday)]
Stupid me for taking the name when we married. And now I don't even know if I'll change it back since I want to be the same as my boys.
STBX actually pleaded with me not to change their last names in the beginning. Guess he didn't realize I couldn't without his permission. But yeah, he's a slacker deadbeat piece of shit, and he doesn't deserve the honor.. I totally see how it's a developmental thing for kids. Hopefully I can be a rose that smells just as sweet no matter what you call me..
But I still might change I my last name to Buttercup just for the hell of it, lol.
SBB: I have to agree with you. Stbx will probably have a pissy fit and refuse but we have to at least try.
shiloe: I wonder if the son followed through and changed his last name?
solus sto: Trac-Fone is a douche.
Lyonesse: Thank you so much for sharing your point of view! Reading your response was such a gift for all of us. Here here to Zebras!
tesla: Hang in there mommy!
Bluebird26: Thank you for the hugs and I'm sorry your ex won't allow your son to change his name. Hugs right back at you! Even if he refuses to sign, at least we have a plan (inform school of preferred name).
ButterflyGirl: Hmmmm. Butterfly Girl Buttercup has a nice ring to it!
[This message edited by dmari at 11:04 PM, March 15th (Saturday)]
My 11yo asked about this (he also wants to know so he can tell my unborn DD how to change her name to Zia when she is old enough because he is sure I'm going to name her "something stupid"). My 11yo also understands its very unlikely his father would sign off on the name change. He's made peace with that possibility of waiting. Its funny what he chooses to have patience about.
I told him I'd keep my married last name until they were both grown then change it. If he can wait, I can too. SO it costs me another $100 later instead of free now.
As much as I want to be AWAY from stbxh, to me a name IS just a name at the moment.

STOP! You have the right to get gorgeous…
Someone called Fine-One-One on your gorgeousness, and I think it was Benefit. They're releasing this new sheer cream color/brightening stick for cheeks and lips, and they're trying to pin you as the perfect perp. The plot thickens!
The skinny…
With three shades; pink champagne (brightening), sheer watermelon, and soft coral (color & contour), Fine-One-One is a push-up stick that looks good enough to eat. But don't! Swipe it across your cheeks and blend upwards with the tips of your fingers for a softened look with a touch of shimmer on your cheekbones for a little lift. Or…pick your poison and apply a shade or two on your lips.
I see my work is done here, there's no beauty emergency—you're already F-I-N-E FINE.
soft coral, sheer watermelon, pink champagne
This little ditty will be available in December 2012 for $30, at all the usual suspects—Sephora, benefitcosmetics.com, etc.
