Australian SMEs' thinking & practice on sustainability revealed
Conducted by Australian Financial Services (AFS) and Net Balance, an in depth study of Australian small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) has found that whilst the majority (77 per cent) are willing to take action on sustainability, recent times have seen a drop in sustainability activities undertaken by these businesses.
SMEs appeared more willing to commit to action when an Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) appeared inevitable and a global agreement on action seemed possible. The decline in commitment seems to have coincided with:
- The failure of the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen to agree binding international targets on reducing emissions;
- Debate on the credibility of forecast increases in global temperatures by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC); and
- The election of Tony Abbott to the Liberal Leadership and the subsequent reversal of Opposition support for the ETS.
Note: the survey concluded prior Prime Minister Rudd's decision to delay emissions trading to 2013.
The survey "What Australia's SMEs say and do about Sustainability and Climate Change" was carried out in two waves, one before last year's Copenhagen Conference and one after, encompassed 1,600 SME owners, chief executives and decisions makers. Some of the key findings are outlined below:
- A significant proportion would be willing to take a short term hit to their financial bottom line to become more sustainable – 51 per cent in 2009, 45 per cent in 2010.
- The biggest drop between the two research waves was in the number of SMEs who didn't trust the available information on sustainability – up from 29 per cent to 46 per cent.
- 60 per cent said the choices they did have were too expensive, without Government subsidy.
- A majority of SMEs believe their business is environmentally friendly – but when asked, 80 per cent said they were not taking any deliberate actions within their business.
- In the 2010 survey wave, 36 per cent said Australia was acting too slowly on climate change – down from 43 per cent in the 2009 research.
- In 2010, 45 per cent said Government achievement on sustainability, including its impact on their business will decide their vote in the next election – up from 39 per cent in the first research wave in 2009.
The most popular actions on sustainability are in waste reduction, energy efficiency and water conservation. All areas in which SMEs can see cost reductions in return for investment.

This particular discussion in Virginia came to naught concerning homeschooling, but the subject of homeschooling was raised apparently concerning county home regulations. Homeschooling is mentioned in the sidebar, not the main article.
Centreville Times, Centreville, Virginia, 20 December 2006, Accessory housing decision postponed
During the citizens' speaking time during Thursday's evening supervisor meeting at the Warren Green Building, two residents raised concerns with the proposal – the first dealing with constitutional rights of free assembly and worship as well as homeschooling, and the second with questions about limitations on keeping retail stock at a residence.
In later discussions, supervisors clarified that homeschooling was allowed under the proposed ordinance change so long as compensation was not paid, …
The formation of 'co-ops' and other group school activities could be a wrinkle in the perception of homeschooling by the general public. Yes, people like to get together to do things socially, but starting co-ops, 'homeschool schools,' and other homeschool-centered activities is, again, taking 'homeschooling' farther than the practice of education in the home, which is usually just family life with education incorporated into daily activities.
Participating in group activities is normal for people since we're social beings, but broadening 'homeschooling' into the area of (paid for?) group activities stretches 'homeschooling.' This seems to muddy the public's perception of it to the point that citizens wonder about restricting families from … doing what? Living at home? Or running an at-home school as a business?
The broadening of homeschooling, while probably inevitable to a degree, is a sticky, gray area when it involves people other than family members.

Resident non-domiciled individuals (RND)
UBS can help you utilise your resident non-domiciled tax status benefits while ensuring regulatory compliance.
Non-UK domiciled investors who live in the UK have important choices available to them for their wealth planning decisions. Perhaps you are moving to the UK for a short period of time, or you may already have sufficient funds or income in the UK to leave your offshore assets untouched for the duration of your stay.
By investing in accordance with complex tax legislation, RND status can offer you tax-efficient solutions depending on your individual situation and needs. In a nutshell, utilising the right solutions ensures that your income and capital gains arising from offshore (i.e. non-UK) assets are not taxed, as long as they are not brought into the UK. However, the legislation permitting such a beneficial tax status is complex and ever evolving.
At UBS our client advisors who work with RND clients undergo rigorous training to help address their unique needs. There is no "one size fits all" solution. Your circumstances are as individual as you are. Together with your tax and legal advisors, we determine the most efficient set-up of your offshore banking and investments in order to meet your personal objectives, while ensuring compliance with relevant tax laws.
As the world's largest wealth manager, UBS in the UK has an experienced team of wealth planners who have extensive backgrounds in wealth structuring and asset protection. Our wealth planning advisors are specially trained to help you navigate this complex tax legislation, drawing on our extensive experience in assisting RND clients to find reliable tax-efficient solutions best suited to their needs.
We offer two separate and robust offshore platforms for your RND planning: Jersey and Switzerland. Jersey offers you the option of having a client advisor in either the UK or Jersey. If you choose our Swiss platform your client advisor will be located in Switzerland.

by Hurston, Zora Neale
At the height of the Harlem Renaissance during the 1930s, Zora Neale Hurston was the preeminent black woman writer in the United States. She was a sometime-collaborator with Langston Hughes and a fierce rival of Richard Wright. Her stories appeared in major magazines, she consulted on Hollywood screenplays, and she penned four novels, an autobiography, countless essays, and two books on black mythology. Yet by the late 1950s, Hurston was living in obscurity, working as a maid in a Florida hotel. She died in 1960 in a Welfare home, was buried in an unmarked grave, and quickly faded from literary consciousness until 1975 when Alice Walker almost single-handedly revived interest in her work.
Of Hurston's fiction, Their Eyes Were Watching God is arguably the best-known and perhaps the most controversial. The novel follows the fortunes of Janie Crawford, a woman living in the black town of Eaton, Florida. Hurston sets up her characters and her locale in the first chapter, which, along with the last, acts as a framing device for the story of Janie's life. Unlike Wright and Ralph Ellison, Hurston does not write explicitly about black people in the context of a white world--a fact that earned her scathing criticism from the social realists--but she doesn't ignore the impact of black-white relations either:
It was the time for sitting on porches beside the road. It was the time to hear things and talk. These sitters had been tongueless, earless, eyeless conveniences all day long. Mules and other brutes had occupied their skins. But now, the sun and the bossman were gone, so the skins felt powerful and human. They became lords of sounds and lesser things. They passed nations through their mouths. They sat in judgment.One person the citizens of Eaton are inclined to judge is Janie Crawford, who has married three men and been tried for the murder of one of them. Janie feels no compulsion to justify herself to the town, but she does explain herself to her friend, Phoeby, with the implicit understanding that Phoeby can "tell 'em what Ah say if you wants to. Dat's just de same as me 'cause mah tongue is in mah friend's mouf."
Hurston's use of dialect enraged other African American writers such as Wright, who accused her of pandering to white readers by giving them the black stereotypes they expected. Decades later, however, outrage has been replaced by admiration for her depictions of black life, and especially the lives of black women. In Their Eyes Were Watching God Zora Neale Hurston breathes humanity into both her men and women, and allows them to speak in their own voices. --Alix Wilber

The 11 Most Embarrassing Championship Wins In Pro Wrestling History
For something as absurd as pro wrestling, most of their championships are decided in a somewhat-realistic manner. One athlete bests another thanks to superior power and athleticism, and walks around with a shiny belt until some skinny writer makes them give it to someone else.
Occasionally though, wrestling chucks that crap out the window, blatantly reminding us how fake their product is, and how dumb we are for watching it. This was never truer than during the late-90s and early 2000's when, in the ongoing quest for ratings and headlines, supposedly prestigious championships were given to pretty much anyone who actively breathed oxygen. Those few years were both the most profitable in wrestling history and, in retrospect, the most humiliating to its fanbase.
Take any fat guy from any "America is way too obese" news segment, and imagine him winning the NBA Slam Dunk Contest, even though his feet barely left the ground. That still wouldn't be as embarrassing as …

Welcome to our hate
If you're one of those who likes to spend your time only with your own kind and think anyone other than your kind is beneath you, Georgia is just the place for you.
That's a roundabout way of saying if you're a racist or hate anyone but your own kind, whatever that kind is, come on down to the Peach State. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, our state ranks fourth in the nation for the number of hate groups that are actively practicing in the state. Key word there being "actively."
If this was a pre-season football ranking, it would be something to be proud of. In this instance, it's deplorable.
A wire story in Wednesday's edition of The Newnan Times-Herald said "the SPLC defines all hate groups as having beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics." In English, or maybe we should use Spanish, that means groups that attack someone else because they are different, whether that be race, religion, sexual orientation or ideology.
In Georgia, the SPLC counted 50 active hate groups, among them the Georgia Militia, the Nation of Islam, The National Socialist Movement and The New Black Panther Party. Those and others are classified as "general hate, neo Nazi, black separatist, anti-Muslim, anti-gays and lesbians, white nationalist, skinheads, and our old standby, the Ku Klux Klan.
On that last one, the report noted Newnan is not immune from all this, with the New Empire Knights of the Ku Klux Klan being headquartered in our fair city.
And what is causing all this hate and intolerance? According to the SPLC's website, "since 2000, the number of hate groups has increased by 56 percent. This surge has been fueled by anger and fear over the nation's ailing economy, an influx of non-white immigrants, and the diminishing white majority, as symbolized by the election of the nation's first African-American president ...
"This growth in extremism has been aided by mainstream media figures and politicians who have used their platforms to legitimize false propaganda about immigrants and other minorities and spread the kind of paranoid conspiracy theories on which militia groups thrive," the website states.
Enough already. Hate groups are not wanted here. They serve no purpose other than to highlight their ignorance. Maybe it's time to start a "hate the hate groups" organization.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Joel email@example.com In a Monday hearing to determine the validity of the city of Riverdale's Nov. 6 election, the judge ruled in favor of the city, according to the city's attorney, Deana Johnson. As a result, today's runoff contests between Phaedra Graham and Evelyn Wynn-Dixon for the mayor's office, and Michelle Bruce and Wayne Hall for the Ward 2 council seat will proceed as scheduled. In Lovejoy, today's runoff between Tommy Green and Bob Lynch for the Post 1 council seat will also proceed as scheduled, even though a hearing has been set for Dec. 13 in Clayton County Superior Court to determine the validity of a challenge to the election. The polls in Riverdale and Lovejoy will be open from 7 a.m., to 7 p.m. Registered voters in the respective cities will be able to cast ballots at 6690 Church Street in Riverdale and 2601 Steele Road in Lovejoy. Riverdale will use electronic voting machines, while Lovejoy will use paper ballots. In court, Riverdale's attorney, Deanna Johnson, defended Bruce, Ward 4 Councilman Kenny Ruffin, and City Clerk Stephanie Thomas in a lawsuit filled by Georgia Fuller and Stan Harris, two unsuccessful candidates in the Nov. 6 elections. The suit called for the election results to be thrown out and the scheduled runoff to be canceled. It also made claims that Bruce -- a transgender official who identifies as a woman -- had lied to the public about her gender; that Ruffin had campaigned illegally during a public event; and that Thomas -- the city's elections superintendent -- had tampered with ballots and voting equipment. Johnson said the judge granted a "directed verdict" to the city -- or in other words -- the case against the city was thrown out for lack of evidence. "It's pretty rare to get a directed verdict granted," said Johnson. "It's a very strong statement that [the plaintiffs] were so far from meeting their burden of proof that the defendants didn't have to show any evidence." Johnson said the judge waived the cost of court fees for the city, but said the city, not the plaintiffs, would ultimately be responsible for the attorneys' fees. However, she said the city felt vindicated. "It says that the city's analysis that this was not justified was agreed with by the court," said Johnson. Fuller, Harris, and their attorney, Michael King, could not be reached for comment Monday. In Lovejoy, despite a petition for injunction filed by Latoshia Gray -- who lost in the Nov. 6 election by one vote to Green and Lynch -- a runoff between Green and Lynch will go forward as planned. While Gray said that having the runoff was "good all the way around" and would put the city on "their Ps and Qs," she believed that different people should be brought in to run the polling site. "I'm surprised that, with the allegations ..., the same people are allowed to run the elections," said Gray. Green said that despite problems in the last election, he has "been running the whole time to win. I can't concern myself with what the judge will rule," said Green. "It was clear that there were some problems last time. Ultimately, the judge will decide based on the evidence." Lynch could not be reached for comment.

Cast Your Own Ring
- David Garland, WNYC Host
"What's Opera, Doc?"
Wagner, adapted by Milt Franklyn
Performed by Arthur Q. Bryan (Elmer Fudd and Siegfried) and Mel Blanc (Bugs Bunny and Brunhilde), with The Warner Bros. Symphony Orchestra conducted by George Daugherty. From the CD "Bugs Bunny on Broadway," (Merrie Melodies/Warner Bros., 9 26494-2) released in 1991.
Probably most baby-boomers first heard Wagner's music while watching Chuck Jones' 1957 cartoon "What's Opera, Doc?" Arthur Q. Bryan and Mel Blanc, the voices of Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny, prove remarkably effective at singing Wagnerian melodies in character. Before "Apocalypse Now" put Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries into a still newer context, for most Americans that melody would evoke the memory of Elmer Fudd singing "Kill the wabbit! Kill the wabbit!"
- Mitchell Heskel, VP Finance
My pick for best recording is the Solti complete cycle with Nilsson. Incomparable.
The brass of the Vienna Philharmonic are just magnificent (and there is a lot of Brass throughout the Ring). Nilsson and the Vienna Philharmonic (and of course Solti) are the main selling points of this wonderful set. Nilsson, at her very peak, sings with power, tenderness and style that are unmatched (and may never be equaled). And those high notes are unbelievable.
The Vienna Phil has this music in their bones—the playing, conducting is exciting, beautiful and stylish. Windgassen is at his best, but the Wotan of Hans Hotter is a serious disappointment—way past his prime his sound is worn and hard to take.
Kobbe's Opera Book gives a great dramatic and musical summary of all 4 operas.
- George Preston, Music Director
The Dream Ring Cycle
Metropolitan Opera
I also love the Solti set, but this one, from actual stage performances, gives one an idea of the true abilities of these phenomenal artists. Lauritz Melchior, in particular, is a marvel of strength, stamina, and vocal brilliance.
- John Schaefer, WNYC Host
For my money, Wilhelm Furtwängler is the ultimate Wagner conductor. I know lots of people like his La Scala Ring Cycle from the early 50s, and the other Italian Ring from that decade—with the RAI (Italy's national radio network)—has a great cast. But the best has to be the 1930s recording with the great Kirsten Flagstad and Lauritz Melchior in the cast. Done at London's Covent Garden, it is a performance so good that it almost SOUNDS good—despite a poor mono recording. With all due respect to the great singers who've done the Ring, the heart of these operas is the orchestral music. Fürtwangler's reading creates an incredible tension—will the slowly-spun lines collapse under their own weight? Of course they don't. The result is a truly epic performance—a musical saga to match the Nordic tale being told, and almost a match for Wagner's own epic ambitions and ego.

Written Answers - Alternative Energy Projects.
Wednesday, 15 June 2005
Dáil Eireann Debate
93. Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources when the first stage of the off-shore wind farm on the Kish bank will be developed; and the way in which he intends to implement the conditions set out in the AER 6 support system in this regard. [19929/05]
Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources (Mr. N. Dempsey): The scheduling of works on any project successful in AER 6 is a commercial decision for the developer concerned, providing the schedule complies with the published rules of the competition.
The applicable rules, as published, provided that all onshore projects, other than "biomass fed CHP", should be built and selling electricity by [225]31 December 2004. The corresponding deadline for the "biomass fed CHP" and "offshore wind" categories is 31 December 2006.
In the case of the onshore categories, other than "biomass fed CHP", the published deadline was extended to 31 December 2005, in accordance with the published rules, in response to the impact of the decision by the CER and subsequent decisions of the network operators to apply a moratorium to new connection offers for renewable energy projects.
All the terms and conditions of AER 6 will be applied by my Department in accordance with the provisions in the published AER 6 competition notes, after taking legal advice if particularly complex issues rise. In the event that any applicant in any category of AER 6 is found not to be in compliance with a binding term or condition the offer of support can be withdrawn.
Question No. 94 answered with Question
No. 14.

Five seconds!
Four three two one!
I heard my lieutenant yell.
He said. "Go, men run."
I was running as fast as my body would let me when I heard a scream as loud as a banshee's call
I looked back
Just in time to see my lieutenant fall
I ran back
Just in time to hear him say more
Take over
And win the war …
I yelled,
Get going men! For goodness sakes,
Take the pill boxes down!
Hurry men! Use whatever it takes!

Satellite Lessons: Vocational Education and Training for Isolated Communities
Twyford, Kylie, Crump, Stephen, Anderson, Alan, Rural Society
At the Western Institute of Technical and Further Education (WITAFE) in New South Wales (NSW), vocational education and training (VET) courses are being delivered to students in isolated homesteads and remote Aboriginal communities by Interactive Distance eLearning (IDL). IDL provides satellite-supported two-way broadband voice, oneway video and Internet access for school-age and adult distance education. Adults commonly access VET courses offered by WITAFE using the equipment provided to their children who are students of a 'School of the Air' or through community facilities in remote Aboriginal communities.
By providing lessons via satellite to isolated students TAFENSW is helping to counter long-standing inequities in distance and rural education by decreasing the digital divide and assisting with rural renewal. Through a case study, this paper examines the influence of the provision of IDL and Internet access for adult students in isolated homesteads in NSW and also the benefits and challenges of teaching and learning with IDL.

Received 9 March 2009 Accepted 23 April 2009
Australia is a large continent and is home to some of the most geographically isolated communities in the world. This expanse, while central to a sense of place and identity in the Australian psyche (including the majority of Australians who live on the urban coastal fringe), is a source of educational marginalisation for Australian people living in rural and remote areas (Twyford & Crump, 2009). In many instances, due to geographic isolation, these communities experience a range of disadvantages, not just in education but also in employment, health services and transport (Crump, Twyford & Littler, 2008). The Bush Talks consultations conducted by the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission (HREOC, 1999) found that access to education of an appropriate standard and quality is a significant concern in rural Australia as distances encompass barriers to the provision of educational services. The HREOC Report Recommendations: National Inquiry into Rural and Remote Education (HREOC, 2000) provided further evidence of disadvantage and unequal educational outcomes for rural Australia.
This geographic isolation from educational institutions offering vocational education and training (VET) courses is one barrier among many to education and training for adults living in remote areas. For those seeking post-compulsory VET in rural, regional and isolated regions of New South Wales (NSW), a lack of proximity to a college of Technical and Further Education (TAFE) has been shown to contribute to low participation levels (Crump et al., 2008). For adults living in rural and remote areas who need to, or prefer to, remain living at home, the choice to engage in VET has traditionally only been available by commuting long distances to attend face-to-face TAFE classes or by utilising distance education providers such as the Open Training and Education Network. Commuting long distances is often not financially viable or practical for many adults and youths who have left school and wish to undertake further education. While the traditional alternative (correspondence or distance education) is not always a viable choice for students who desire, or need, regular interaction and support from their teachers and peers. Quite often students have to leave for urbanised areas for education and training due to fewer options to pursue career goals locally.
The Department of Education and Training (DET) in NSW and TAFENSW are attempting to address inequities for geographically isolated students by utilising technological advances in information and communications technology. The Interactive Distance eLearning (IDL) project initiative, launched in 2003, has improved provision of education services to isolated homesteads and remote Aboriginal communities. …

Day in the NHL: Bruins top Penguins as Brooks Orpik hospitalized
Boston • Zdeno Chara scored with 13 seconds left in regulation after David Krejci tied it late, lifting the Boston Bruins to a 3-2 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday night in a game that saw Penguins defenseman Brooks Orpik taken from the ice on a stretcher.
Reilly Smith also scored for the Bruins, who haven't lost in regulation at home since late October (10-0-2).
Tuukka Rask stopped 28 shots for Boston.
Chris Kunitz and James Neal scored power-play goals for the Penguins, who had their season-high, five-game winning streak halted.
Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 18 shots for Pittsburgh.
Krejci scored with 1:29 to play, beating Fleury with a wrister from the slot. Chara unloaded the winner from near the middle of the faceoff circles, cutting in from the right point.
Midway into the opening period, Bruins winger Shawn Thornton was given a match penalty for grabbing Orpik from behind, pulling him to the ice and punching him when he was down. Orpik appeared to be dazed, and may have hit his head on the ice.
The Penguins said he was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital where "he is alert and conscious."
Boston's Brad Marchand was injured in front of the Bruins' bench near center ice before Thornton grabbed Orpik.

Temporarily Out Of Stock
Item # EAS0149
Don't get too bummed. This item is on the way and will be available for purchase as soon as it rolls into the warehouse.
Can't wait? Consider one of the other Wheel Small Parts we have in stock.
Easton R4SL Cassette Body $0.00
Built for ceramic-bearing-loving weight-weenies. Like us.
Shaving grams can be an addiction. If light is what you're after Easton's R4 SL Freehub Body is perfect for a quick fix. The R4 SL Freehub is compatible with Easton's R4 and R4 SL hubs. It's been "tuned" by way of the CNC machine. They mill away enough material (mostly extra splines) to save up to 22 grams over the R4 Freehub Body.
One of the beautiful things about Easton wheels is that a switch from Campagnolo to Shimano or SRAM componentry or vice-versa won't necessitate a new wheel purchase. You could just replace the freehub with one that is compatible with your new gear. Likewise, if you routinely use two different cassette ratios depending on your race courses, you might think about a spare freehub body. It's actually quicker and easier to remove the whole freehub body (cassette and all) with two 5mm hex keys than it would be to fumble with a chainwhip, lockring tool, and wrench to remove and swap cassettes.
The Easton R4 SL Freehub Body also includes ceramic bearings. It's compatible with all EC90 and EA90 wheelsets and is available in three versions:
- Compatible with EC90 Aero, EC90 TT, EC90 SLX, EA90 SL, EA90 TT and EA90 Aero wheels
- Only available Shimano 10-speed, Campagnolo 9/10/11, and SRAM Powerdome

Pensacola Flooding During and After
- stein0726, CNN iReport producer
I was almost victim of the flooding a few days ago as I drove my van through what looked to be very shallow water in a strip mall parking lot, only to find out it as over 2 feet deep! My van managed to get to the edge of the deep water before stalling out. It restarted back up and all was fine. But for many others in my neighborhood and city, they were no so lucky. I posted a report showing the images during the flooding so I thought I would post some aftermath from the photo I took that became very popular. Also I found that the Lost Sole I took a blurry photo of due to the downpour, had settled nicely onto what is now dry ground, and got a clean shot of it this time.

We deliver all around the world even direct to fishing lodges. We do not believe in cheap salmon flies but great quality and value. See the reviews by other fishermen
Many fly fishermen rely on our flies, backed up with our famous customer service, all flies come with our quality guarantee! If you are not sure which are the best flies for salmon at different times of year check our fly selection colour & size chart below showing colour and size of fly recommended through the the season.
Our Range Of Salmon Fly Patterns
There are lots of types of salmon fly patterns including tube flies, irish shrimps, hair wings, snakes. Each fly type has it's own benefit; for example a salmon tube fly can have much more weight if a copper or brass tubes are used or lighter if nylon tubes are used. Hairwings give lots of movement triggering attacks where an Irish shrimp fly pattern looks like natural shrimp food for salmon. We sell a vast range of quality flies for salmon for any venue you wish to fish at.
Fly hook size requirements vary. In the early season size 4 flies with green colours are more successful for salmon fly fishing. Mid season colours change from yellow flies to orange colour and as the season progresses the successful flies get smaller. During the height of summer you may be using flies as small as size 16. At the end of the season red flies work well then finally purple coloured flies at the tail of the season with flies well now in the size 8 range.
Basic Techniques For Using Salmon Flies
Upstream Techniques
Cast your fly across the current and let it swing normally. Keep tracking the fly as it moves downstream slowly descending as it moves downstream. When the fly reaches the end of it's arc, keep the fly fluttering for a few moments as this can often trigger bites.
Downstream Method
An alternative method of fishing the fly is by casting upstream and letting it sink. As the fly drifts downstream there is no drag from the flyline, basically the fly will sink more rapidly without drag. Using this method you can fish a lot deeper than on the upstream arc casting method. Please keep contact with the fly when fishing upstream as you need to be ready to set the hook if a fish should strike the fly on the almost slack line! Watch the leader for movement indicating a bite.

New Orleans trip offers new world view
Binghamton master's of social work students sit in a circle with children from New Orleans' 7th Ward. The graduate students devoted spring break to helping residents of the community, which is still struggling to recover from Hurricane Katrina.
During spring break, I traveled with 14 other master's of social work students, an MSW graduate and two social workers to New Orleans to provide mental health services to people in the 7th Ward. In connection with an Ithaca-based not-for-profit group, Love Knows No Bounds, we spent a memorable week working with Pastor Bruce from St. John's #5 Church, his wife, Deborah, and staff connected to social service programs through the church.
We spent three days facilitating trauma work for children in the community, did home visits with homebound elders and families, coordinated services and advocated for residents in the 7th Ward, did HIV/AIDS street outreach and provided a place for children to play and get relief from daily stressors.
Our goal was to give people an opportunity to tell their stories and heal their hearts. Mental health services have not been available to people in this area since soon after Hurricane Katrina in August 2005.
When people ask me how my trip was, I say that it was amazing, devastating, fun and sad all at the same time.
We drove through neighborhood after neighborhood of empty houses, saw hundreds of people living in tents under bridges with no running water and witnessed housing developments being destroyed, leaving more than 1,500 families without affordable housing.
I listened to kids tell stories of tragedy and show their tremendous resilience through their laughter while playing games. I heard about difficulties I would like to think don't happen in the United States and then was thanked for taking the time to listen. I saw that the power of listening brought relief and a sincere smile to their faces.
Our group cried, laughed, learned and grew together. It was a week I will never forget. I made friendships that will last a lifetime.
The day after we returned home from our trip, I was sitting in the Social Security office waiting to change my adopted son's name on his Social Security card when an elderly black man sat down next to me. Normally, I would have looked up and then looked away without engaging in a conversation. Instead, I smiled and talked to the gentleman about the weather and wished him well when I left. He was smiling.
I see people differently now. I see each person with a story to tell, and a day to brighten instead of being focused only on my own life and problems. I see ethnicity and poverty in a new light. I am so blessed in this life, but now I see how quickly it can be taken away and how very long it can take to repair.
After almost three years, thousands of residents of New Orleans are still not in their homes. Houses are boarded up, and you can still see the holes in the roofs where the residents escaped. We drove over bridges where people stayed, some for days, in the sweltering sun with no food or water, blocked from crossing to safer ground and shelter.
I like to believe people in America don't have to live this way, and that if there were a storm it would be cleaned up and people could go home. Instead, New Orleans looked like a war-ravaged city in a third-world country sitting next to huge hotels and condos in the French Quarter.
As a social worker, I believe I will be back in New Orleans and will do all I can, along with others from the group, to provide supplies, funds and support to our new family in the 7th Ward.
I learned that being with a person and sharing stories, pain and a smile can help heal the heart even when there are so many needs that I cannot begin to meet.
I have seen a community that has lost everything but remains loving, open to sharing and believing in the goodness of others.

Fears for hundreds of jobs at Devonport Dockyard as MoD cuts 20per cent from budget
Posted: February 03, 2014|
REPORTS that the Ministry of Defence is seeking to cut a fifth of its military maintenance budget have raised fears of job losses at Devonport Dockyard.
According to the Financial Times the MoD is aiming to cut £1.5billion from its £7.5billion annual military maintenance budget.
Contracts being renegotiated by Devonport operator Babcock and the MoD's procurement arm, Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S), are understood to be worth about £1billion.
DE&S spends about half its budget on servicing equipment with companies including Babcock International and BAE Systems, according to the FT.
Up to eight contracts have been renegotiated, so far, saving £500million.
Cuts of that scale could potentially lead to hundreds of jobs losses, according to sources. But Peter Rogers, chief executive of Babcock, told the FT: "There is not only one way to skin the cat – there are hundreds and it's a matter of finding the best way.
"We understand DE&S's need to reduce its spend and we are involved in renegotiations."
But he said that renegotiating the contracts was more complex than cutting the headcount.
Some Plymouth contracts are understood to be up for renewal in April.
Last year the MoD renegotiated its contract for the Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carrier programme with BAe Systems. The company subsequently announced a restructuring, proposing 1,775 job cuts across UK operations, including 940 at Portsmouth.
Alison Seabeck, MP for Plymouth Moor View and shadow Defence Minister, said: "Although you don't have to cut the headcount, there is a risk."
In the House of Commons yesterday she asked Defence Procurement Minister Philip Dunne what steps he is taking to ensure that a £1.5billion cut would not adversely affect small and medium sized businesses in the supply chain.
Mr Dunne said that he intends visiting Plymouth "in the not too distant future".
Ms Seabeck pointed out that the MoD's renegotiation with BAe had already resulted in job cuts.
"Babcock is a pretty lean machine. My sense is that it is doing everything it can not to reduce the headcount significantly.
"But we shall have to see when the minister visits Devonport what the implications are for Plymouth.
"In terms of protecting the skills base, they must be pretty nearly at an optimum level. I do have some concern about arbitrarily cutting 20 per cent without looking at capacity."
Oliver Colvile, the MP for Plymouth Sutton and Devonport, said: "MoD budgets are already under an enormous amount of pressure. They are looking at all the procurement, especially where contracts are up for renegotiation.
"I would want Babcock to come and talk to me so I can help to put their case together. Babcock is a very lean and mean machine.
He said that about 25,000 people in Plymouth's travel to work area depend on the Dockyard. He said he would raise the issue with Philip Dunne, the Minister, when he visits Plymouth.
Mr Colvile added that the minister had said the negotiations were part of a general strategy to deliver value for money for the taxpayer.
Defence Secretary Philip Hammond told the FT: "Everybody in the MoD and in the industry would recognise that in the past the system hasn't worked terribly well.
"The industry hasn't been as efficient as it could be, the MoD hasn't been as good a customer as it should be."
According to the paper the MoD declined to confirm the figure, but said it was looking to make savings across all of its contracts.
The MoD did not respond to a request from The Herald to confirm the scale of cuts and possible job cuts.
However, Babcock said: "These types of negotiations continue all the time. It is business as usual and there are a multitude of different factors being taken into account all the time.
"The negotiations have to be confidential, and no decisions have been taken one way or the other."
The Dockyard Works Committee did not respond to the reports.

There's no doubt about it, the AeroPress is unique. It uses cooler water, a shorter extraction time, and manually applied pressure to make coffee. And very strong coffee at that. It's not quite as strong as espresso, but yields a similar flavor - and a less bitter one at that. I would venture to say that the final coffee actually has less caffeine, as well, due to the lower temperature and quick extraction. Many of you probably know that espresso actually has only about 70% of the caffeine that a normal pot of coffee has due to how quickly the water is forced through the coffee. Caffeine needs time to be coaxed out.
The AeroPress uses thin paper filters and comes with a year's supply. This keeps the body of your coffee relatively thin and prevents any solids from entering the cup.
If you have further questions after viewing the tutorial below, give us a call at 1-800-600-0033 or email Casey at casey @ morecoffee.com!
Check out MoreCoffee!'s AeroPress selection by clicking here.
The AeroPress comes with a one year's supply of filter pads included. To attach the filter pad, you just need to unscrew the bottom of the AeroPress, pop in the filter and reattach to the main unit.
The next step is to add your ground coffee to the AeroPress. Using the included scooping spoon, measure out one scoop of ground coffee per 5oz cup. The manufacturer recommends a, "drip grind when using two or more scoops because it's easy to push and yields rich flavor. For single-scoop pressings, espresso grind will yield more flavor yet still be easy to push".
Pushing down the plunger:
It's then just a matter of attaching the plunger and applying pressure. Slow and steady pressure is all that is required. This process will take about 20 seconds depending on the number of cups you are brewing.
Once the plunger is pushed down, you simply remove the AeroPress from your cup and it's ready to drink! The included scooping spoon can also be used as a convenient espresso measuring cup for dividing up the final brew.
