About the Galloway Family Foundation
The Galloway Family Foundation (GFF) was founded a number of years ago in order to promote quality journalism in an era in which journalism profoundly changed, both in the sources and level of funding necessary to sustain quality journalism and in the technological changes sweeping the industry.
It is the hope of GFF that it can in some small but still meaningful way fund both projects and journalists at or near the start of their careers that might not attract the attention of other, often larger foundations, even though both the journalists and the issues they will address.
Galloway Family Foundation – Past and Current Partners
The Galloway Family Foundation (GFF) is pleased to work with ABC News and The George Polk Awards to fund a new investigative journalism fellowship. GFF and ABC News, working with the George Polk Awards Committee, have established a pilot program for international investigative reporting, the Galloway Reporting Fellowship.
The Galloway Family Foundation provides grants for international human rights reporting to the GlobalPost. The GlobalPost helps to fill the void in world news coverage by US news organizations. With a network of journalists around the world living and working in the countries they cover, The GlobalPost produces reports, video and photography that give a ground-level view on international stories.
The GFF believes that a void currently exists in the interaction between government practitioners and individuals working in academic and non-governmental organizations. To rectify this problem, the GFF has established the Galloway International Congressional Fellowship (GICF). The Fellowship offers professionals opportunities to work directly in Congress with Senators and Foreign Relations Committee staff on a variety of major foreign-policy issues.
The Galloway Family Foundation provides grants for international human rights reporting to GroundTruth. The GroundTruth Project is dedicated to training a new generation of international correspondents and to adding increased knowledge and understanding on issues of social justice including human rights, freedom of expression, emerging democracies, the environment, religious affairs and global health.With funding from the Galloway Family Foundation, GroundTruth reporting fellows have done outstanding, in-depth reporting on the effects of climate change on human rights around the world.
Galloway Fellowship Programs
The Galloway Family Foundation has funded and continue to fund several successful Fellowship programs, in both the domestic and international area. Through its fellowship programs with ABC News, GroundTruth, and Global Post as well as the Galloway International Congressional Fellowship (GICF), the Galloway Family Foundation has sought to provide the new generation of journalism the opportunity to tackle important issues.The Galloway Family Foundation (GFF) has worked with ABC News, GroundTruth and Global Post to fund investigative journalism projects worldwide. These programs offer less experienced journalists a unique opportunity to broaden their experience. Their reporting often focuses on important stories from regions that are ignored.
GFF has also established the Galloway International Congressional Fellowship (GICF). This Fellowship offers professionals opportunities to work directly in Congress with Senators and Foreign Relations Committee staff on a variety of major foreign-policy issues. The Fellows provide Committee members with their expertise on foreign-policy issues facing the U.S., while the Committee members give Fellows a hands-on, in-depth education in setting and administering foreign policy.
On the domestic side, GFF is currently partnering with GroundTruth, West Virginia Public Broadcasting , the Lexington Herald-Leader, and the Charleston Gazette-Mail to support a reporting project which is intend to address the issues that impact Appalachia. Three Galloway fellows will be selected in the fall of this year and will work with our partners on a joint-reporting project. The product of which will be distributed via print, online and broadcast news.

From The Editor
By Carol Berkin
In this final issue of 2010, History Now offers readers a selection of the latest interpretations of the Civil War era by four leading historians. These essays remind us that this critical moment in the history of our nation continues to demand reexamination.
In "Lincoln's Interpretation of the Civil War", Eric Foner takes a closer look at the President's second inaugural address. He finds evidence of Lincoln's deeply held belief that the sin of slavery could not be laid simply at the doorstep of the planter society of the South. The "peculiar institution" was a national institution, created and sustained by Yankee and Rebel alike. The war was a punishment by God for American sins, Lincoln declared, but neither blame nor vengeance ought to prevail now that the war had ended. Foner's analysis gives new weight and meaning to the inaugural's most famous phrase, "with malice toward none."
In "The Underground Railroad: The Metaphor That Helped Launch a Civil War," Matthew Pinsker observes that the Underground Railroad is often seen as a literal form of transportation rather than a metaphor for anti-slavery activism. Pinsker reminds us that the "agents" and "conductors" were not serving on actual trains or as participants in formal, organized escape routes. Instead, the "railroad" was the active and organized resistance of abolitionists to the fugitive slave laws. By the 1840s, many northern states had passed personal liberty laws designed to nullify the law of the land. Thus, as Pinsker points out, states rights arguments were as much a northern phenomenon as a southern one.
Bruce Levine considers the Confederacy's plans for slave emancipation in his essay "The Riddles of 'Confederate Emancipation'." Could a society fighting to preserve slavery really contemplate a policy that granted freedom to African Americans willing to fight for Confederate independence? Levine examines the arguments of those who supported the recruitment of black soldiers and those who adamantly opposed it until desperate circumstances made them changed their minds.
In our final essay, "Women and the Home Front," Catherine Clinton reviews the emergence of a new literature that replaces the popular but entirely false image of a nineteenth century inhabited by Scarlett O'Haras and their faithful African American servants. Instead, Clinton shows us women like Rose Greenhow who served as a spy, soldiers like Sarah Rosetta Wakeman, nurses like Cornelia Hancock, and self-emancipated ex-slaves like Elizabeth Keckly. These women—whose stories can be found in historical studies, novels, and in primary source materials available online and in published volumes—were not passive onlookers in the great struggles of the mid-nineteenth century. Their addition to the canvas of the Civil War makes the story more complex and more inclusive.
As always, History Now offers lesson plans from master teachers, abundant resources for further investigation provided by our expert archivist Mary-Jo Kline, and suggestions for incorporating the central themes of the issue into your classroom from Bruce Lesh and Phil Nicolosi, both winners of the Paul Gagnon Prize for Teaching. Our interactive feature, "Letters from the Civil War," provide powerful primary source documents for you and your students.
A final note: Let me urge you and your school to sign up as members of the new Gilder Lehrman Affiliate School Program. The Affiliates section of the Gilder Lehrman website will offer you an amazing variety of resources for teaching American History: Essays by noted scholars, lesson plans, primary sources, maps and other visuals, podcasts, identifications of key terms from major chronological eras, time lines, and related essays on music, art, and literature. It is free--- and it is a remarkable treasure trove for you and your students.
Wishing you a happy new year,
Carol Berkin

Cooper believes it's never too early for consistency
KANSAS CITY -- Before any criticism can be heaped upon Don Cooper's White Sox pitching staff, he quickly points out how only four games have been played in the 162-game season. He adds that the Red Sox, last year's World Series champions, had the same 2-2 record as the White Sox.
But like a stern but proud father, Cooper immediately demanded more of his staff that issued 19 walks over the last three games entering Saturday.
"It's four games," Cooper said Saturday. "But I will tell you, yesterday we need to pick that up. That [isn't] what we are looking for."
Cooper took umbrage at the depiction of the White Sox bullpen imploding in the first week. He praised Daniel Webb and Maikel Cleto, adding that Ronald Belisario made one bad pitch over three games and closer Matt Lindstrom had one good game and one bad game.
Three of the first four starts gave the White Sox a chance to win. Erik Johnson, who allowed seven runs on 10 hits over 4 2/3 innings in Friday's setback, did not follow that pattern. Cooper didn't see enough strikes from Johnson's fastball, slider or changeup.
"Erik was not nearly as good as we need him to be," Cooper said. "Everybody is capable. You give other teams help and they are going to … You gotta make them swing the bat to beat us. We can't shoot ourselves in the foot.
"[Walks] can't happen. They all [stink]. It sets yourself up. You are in tougher situations, higher-anxiety innings. Higher-stress innings we'll call them. But Erik is a rookie. There are going to be ups and downs and we are going to try on the next outing to turn a down into more of a positive."
This stretch of cold weather clearly favors the pitchers, according to Cooper. Even though it's early, he wants to see that edge work in his team's favor.
"Listen, hits and walks make up runs," Cooper said. "We've got to take care of the walk column for everybody. The other team has to hit us to beat us."

"Good evening. I'm Marco Rubio. I'm blessed to represent Florida in the United States Senate. Let me begin by congratulating President Obama on the start of his second term. Tonight, I have the honor of responding to his State of the Union address on behalf of my fellow Republicans. And I am especially honored to be addressing our brave men and women serving in the armed forces and in diplomatic posts around the world. You may be thousands of miles away, but you are always in our prayers.
The State of the Union address is always a reminder of how unique America is. For much of human history, most people were trapped in stagnant societies, where a tiny minority always stayed on top, and no one else even had a chance.
But America is exceptional because we believe that every life, at every stage, is precious, and that everyone everywhere has a God-given right to go as far as their talents and hard work will take them.
Like most Americans, for me this ideal is personal. My parents immigrated here in pursuit of the opportunity to improve their life and give their children the chance at an even better one. They made it to the middle class, my dad working as a bartender and my mother as a cashier and a maid. I didn't inherit any money from them. But I inherited something far better – the real opportunity to accomplish my dreams.
This opportunity – to make it to the middle class or beyond no matter where you start out in life – it isn't bestowed on us from Washington. It comes from a vibrant free economy where people can risk their own money to open a business. And when they succeed, they hire more people, who in turn invest or spend the money they make, helping others start a business and create jobs.
Presidents in both parties – from John F. Kennedy to Ronald Reagan – have known that our free enterprise economy is the source of our middle class prosperity.
But President Obama? He believes it's the cause of our problems. That the economic downturn happened because our government didn't tax enough, spend enough and control enough. And, therefore, as you heard tonight, his solution to virtually every problem we face is for Washington to tax more, borrow more and spend more.
This idea – that our problems were caused by a government that was too small – it's just not true. In fact, a major cause of our recent downturn was a housing crisis created by reckless government policies.
And the idea that more taxes and more government spending is the best way to help hardworking middle class taxpayers – that's an old idea that's failed every time it's been tried.
More government isn't going to help you get ahead. It's going to hold you back.
More government isn't going to create more opportunities. It's going to limit them.
And more government isn't going to inspire new ideas, new businesses and new private sector jobs. It's going to create uncertainty.
Because more government breeds complicated rules and laws that a small business can't afford to follow.
Because more government raises taxes on employers who then pass the costs on to their employees through fewer hours, lower pay and even layoffs.
And because many government programs that claim to help the middle class, often end up hurting them instead.

2701 Cottage Way #16
SACRAMENTO, California, USA (June 15, 2010) – The International Pemphigus & Pemphigoid Foundation (IPPF) has officially launched its Pemphigus-Pemphigoid Patient Registry. Pemphigus and pemphigoid (P-P) patients can now enter in specific illness and treatment/outcome information in an online registry tool that will provide researchers with valuable, hard to come by information about these rare diseases.
The registry was designed using SurveyGizmo.com, is HIPPA compliant, and the information is protected on their secure servers. The P-P Patient Registry has been approved by the United States Department of Health and Human Services' Office for Human Research Protection's Institutional Review Board (IRB). The IPPF has a goal of adding 1,000 respondents to the registry by the end of 2010. This goal will provide a substantial amount of illness and treatment information needed to support research and discovery, increase P-P education among medical professionals, and support its patient advocacy campaigns.
"On the foundation of the clinical information collected in patient databases and associated sample collections, we can systematically investigate disease mechanisms by relating clinical data to genetic, genomic, and proteomic disease factors," said Dr. Animesh Sinha, Chief, N.V. Perricone Division of Dermatology and Cutaneous Sciences and Director, Center for Investigative Dermatology at Michigan State University. He believes that the P-P Registry "can be expected to yield relevant insights into general mechanisms of autoimmunity, and facilitate the development of novel therapies to help relieve the burden of human autoimmune disease."
The registry is only for pemphigus and pemphigoid patients and takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. Patients interested in participating are encouraged to visit the IPPF's registry page at http://www.pemphigus.org/wordpress/registry to learn more about the registry, download a guide to help them gather information on current and past medications, or participate.
About the International Pemphigus and Pemphigoid Foundation: The IPPF is the pre-eminent global organization dedicated to improving the quality of life of all people diagnosed with, or affected by, pemphigus or pemphigoid. The IPPF provides direct access to innovative and effective support that promotes the very best health care, improves quality of life, stimulates community resources, advocates for favorable government policies, accelerates the pace of scientific discovery and is the world's best source of information on pemphigus and pemphigoid. We are compassionate in understanding, tireless in service, and relentless in advocating. One person at a time, we make a difference, building a community of care and hope. For more information, visit their website at www.pemphigus.org.

Catherine recommends homeowners decorating their first space take it slow. "I know people are eager to be done," she says, but don't rush into filling every nook and cranny right away. Instead, take the time to hit antique stores and consignment shops to find the perfect pieces for your new home. Catherine found the $25 rattan coffee table base in her living room at Atlanta's Scott's Antique Market and had a piece of glass cut to fit.
Streamlined Outdoor Space
Busy lives call for a streamlined solution and this outdoor space with an outbuilding for storage, string lights, fire pit and a few tables for people to gather does the trick.
Small Bath, Big Impact
Catherine uses Thibaut Tanzania wallpaper in black on cream in her home's only bathroom to give it real impact. "Since it was our only bathroom," says Catherine, she decided to "make it fun." Even the ceiling is wallpapered for maximum effect.

Journalists faced significant restrictions, particularly online, despite democratic elections and a change in government. Outgoing Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva cracked down on partisan media, shutting radio stations and detaining Somyot Preuksakasemsuk, editor of a newsmagazine aligned with the anti-government United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship. New premier Yingluck Shinawatra wielded the country's strict lèse majesté laws by censoring websites and Facebook pages, and harassing Internet users who posted online material critical of the monarchy. Chiranuch Premchaiporn, editor of the news website Prachatai, faced a possible 50 years in prison under the draconian 2007 Computer Crimes Act for anonymous anti-royal remarks that were posted to one of her site's comment sections. The case was pending in late year. A reporter was killed in September while covering bombings in the country's insurgency-plagued southern region, a fatality that continued the country's recent spate of media deaths. The government opened a new inquiry into the fatal shooting of Reuters cameraman Hiro Muramoto during 2010 protests in Bangkok, but authorities left unresolved the case of a second international journalist killed in the 2010 unrest, Italian photographer Fabio Polenghi.
A clampdown on partisan media and anti-royal commentary saw the jailing of Somyot. With his imprisonment, Thailand appeared on CPJ's annual prison census for the first time.
At least nine journalists have been killed in direct relation to their work in Thailand since 1992. Fatalities have increased in recent years along with rising political tensions, CPJ research shows. In 2011, newspaper reporter Phamon Phonphanit died from severe burns suffered while covering bomb blasts in Sungai Kolok.
The Ministry of Information and Communications Technology censored nearly 75,000 Web pages between the enactment of the 2007 Computer Crimes Act and the end of 2010, according to Thailand's independent iLaw project. More than 75 percent of the blocked pages were said to contain anti-royal content.
Court Orders1
Censored Web pages2
The number of lèse majesté complaints filed to lower courts has spiked since a 2006 military coup, according to Thai court records. Thailand's lèse majesté laws prohibit criticism of the royal family and set prison penalties up to 15 years, making them among the most severe in the world.
As authorities ramped up website censorship, bloggers and alternative news providers migrated to platforms such as Facebook. With more than 12 million users, Thailand ranked 16th globally in total Facebook usage, according to Socialbakers data.
Facebook use in the region:
Indonesia: 40.8 million users
India: 38
Philippines: 26.7
Thailand: 12.4
Malaysia: 11.7
Taiwan: 10.7
Australia: 10.6

ForumsThird-Party ApplicationsLooking for iPhone task app that will sync w/ TD
Looking for iPhone task app that will sync w/ TD
As I described in another forum, I have created a TD based grocery shopping app for my iPhone. I've been using the iPhone TD app, but I'd rather use the iPhone TD app to connect w/ TD, and find an iPhone app that syncs w TD that does just a few things that my grocery app needs. These would be Starring, Tags, Folders and, if possible, Contexts. Of course, I'd want to be add or delete "tasks" (really grocery items in this application) from the iPhone app.
I'd like suggestions on which of the many apps that sync with TD have these particular features, and how well they work with TD.
Thanks for your help.

Have you tried it with the mobile website? I think Appigo's Todo will handle your fields, but the sorting options are limited.
Thanks for your suggestions. And yes, I did look at the mobil app, and it's not accessible for this. When I try to enter the email address for this account, it won't allow me to enter it. It's an autocorrect thing.

Thanks for your reply, JPR. It was a bizarre autocorrect thingy that I've never seen or heard of before. Hard to describe in writing, not worth the time. After I posted, I figured out that if I just copied the email address elsewhere and pasted it in, it worked.
Still, the slim version won't do what I'm looking for.

UMinn to review nonresident tuition
Non-resident tuition dropped four years ago
MINNEAPOLIS — The University of Minnesota plans to review the cost of tuition for out-of-state residents.
The university dropped its nonresident tuition four years ago to attract more undergraduates from elsewhere. It is now the cheapest school in the Big Ten for those students, but it's the fourth-most-expensive for residents.
The number of nonresident students has swelled since 2007 from nearly 8 percent to more than 17 percent. Meanwhile, the percentage of resident students dipped slightly and the number of students from reciprocity states such as Wisconsin shrank.
University President Eric Kaler told the Star Tribune it's probably a good time to look at nonresident tuition and whether it needs to be changed.
He said the university first needs to study how sensitive out-of-state students are to price.

V. Earl Dickinson Stadium:
The University of Mary Washington baseball team competes at one of the finest facilities in all of NCAA baseball, V. Earl Dickinson Stadium. One of the crown jewels of the Battleground Athletic Complex, located adjacent to campus along Hanover Street, Dickinson Stadium has seating for more than 1,000 fans, houses a concession stand, restrooms for spectators, and a state of the art public adress system that entertains fans with music and information. The players enjoy spacious dugouts, one indoor and four outdoor batting cages, and the newest aerobic and strength training equipment available at the field each day.
With dimensions of 330 feet down each foul line, 370 feet to the power alleys, and 400 feet to straightaway center field, Dickinson Stadium offers "big league" playability which is important for evaluation of players by major league scouts. The host to the 1992 NCAA Division III South regional tournament, Dickinson Stadium was named in 1998 after Virginia state delegate V. Earl Dickinson on Community Appreciation Day. In addition, Dickinson Stadium has been host to CAC Championship tournament games every year since 1991, including the weekend championship portion of the event in 1993, 1994, 1997, 2003, and 2004.
From Interstate 95, take Exit 130A (Route 3 East), and follow through five stoplights. At the sixth light, turn LEFT onto Business Route 3 (William Street). At the top of the hill, the road splits. Stay RIGHT, onto Hanover Street. The Battleground Athletic Complex is on the RIGHT.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but for some reason I thought my sponsorship of Messeret would be ending in August. I just got a bill for September, so I'm guessing it doesn't end until October. I am on a reduced rate payment plan already, but unfortunately I am not able to pay the last 1-2 months that are remaining of my sponsorship because of financial difficulties. What should I do?
We do not want this sponsorship to be a financial burden on you and want you to be able to maintain this relationship with your boy through its completion. Compassion is happy to cover the month of September for you so that you can continue writing to him for this last month. I have updated your account today and we are so grateful for the sacrifice you have made and for investing in his life for over 7 years. I pray that you enjoy this last month of your sponsorship and we will contact you once we receive news that he has graduated! :) Please let me know if I can help you further.
Could I get this option too? Right now, I have zero money to give, but would like to try having my sponsorship covered for 3 months then lowering it to $19/mo for 6 months and see where I'm at then.
If I do have to cancel, can I still write Moussa?
And could I cancel my support with Partners of Compassion?
Regrettably, if you need to cancel in the future, we place your child back up for sponsorship at that time and you would be welcome to write Moussa a final letter to say goodbye, but are no longer able to maintain a letter writing relationship with him. I will be praying that you will not have to make this difficult decision and come July, you will be back on your feet again :).
I will be going on a study abroad stay and although my financial situation is already tough, I really don't want to cancel my sponsorship. So I would be very gratefull if I could get both 3 months cover of donations and lower the donations for 6 months after that. That would be EXACTLY the time that will be critical for me...
Thanks for your help and God bless.
Jana Dukátová, sponsor no.: 3284171
I am so glad that you came to us because we would be more than happy to help you out for a time while you get back on your feet. Regrettably, I was unable to locate your account using your name and email address. Would you mind posting your child's ID number on here so that I can locate you in our system? At that time, I will update your account so that you're able to maintain the relationship you have been building with your kiddos.
I am so happy that you came to us because we want to do everything we can to help you maintain your relationship with Lima. First off, please rest assured that she does not know anything about the financial situation. She will continue receiving support from the project and be able to attend activities :). In regards to your support, I have updated your account today so that Compassion covers the months of November through January for you. This is our gift to you and you will not need to reimburse us. I have also requested that beginning in February, your rate be temporarily reduced to $19 for 6 months. If your situation improves before then, just let us know and we can increase your rate back to the $38 rate before that time is up :).
I pray that this helps you during this time. You're still welcome to send Lima letters during this time as I know she will love to continue getting to know you as her sponsor. God bless you and Merry Christmas!
I'm having a similar struggle with my finances at the moment. Would I be able to have my donation covered for 3 months and then reduced to $19 for 6 months? I do not want to cancel my sponsorship, but I won't be able to afford $38/month for the next few months.
Thank you,
Brianna, finances can be so stressful sometimes :(. I pray that God would provide for you and that your situation would improve quickly! We are more than happy to help you out. I have updated your account to reflect your requested changes. We will cover your support through April and your rate will be reduced to $19 beginning in May all through the end of October.
I have updated your account today so that your account so that your donation for March does not withdrawal and the next automatic pull will be in April. Compassion will cover your support for this month. Would it help you out if we removed your extra $7/month giving towards the HIV/AIDS Response? This would reduce your monthly rate from $45 to just the $38 for Peter's support. We are grateful for your sacrifice and generosity but we don't want this to be a burden on you. Let me know if this would help you out and I will update your account when I receive your response :).
I'm sorry that your child letter was returned to us as undeliverable :(. I have notified the department that put your letter off to the side until we received a correct address, that you have updated your address and should receive mail now. I hope that it reaches you this time, but if we have further issues, we'll let you know.
I was hoping to connect on a similar financial situation of just being unable to make ends meet right now.
I was grateful to stumble upon these other options before completely canceling my sponsorship of Shija. Is there any way I can do this so that in the next few months I can catch up on bills and hopefully continue to sponsor him?
I'm so sorry that finances are hard for you right now :(. I know that can be stressful but God loves you so very much and wants to take care of you :). I pray that He would bless your situation and provide for you financially. Please let us know if things haven't changed by the end of next month and we can discuss what might be able to be done to help you maintain your relationship with Brian.
Also, thanks for writing to him so consistently. I know that he loves to hear from you and you're welcome to write as often as you'd like!
Regrettably, we have a few different accounts under your name but none with your email address. Can you post your child's ID number or your sponsor number here so that I can find the right account for you? I'll be happy to update your support at that time. I hope your situation improves quickly!
I do not want to cancel my sponsorship if I do not have to and I know that the financial assistance available would help me out tremendously. During the first semester of grad school, I will have to pay a lot of expenses out of pocket (tuition, books,etc) so being able to have 3 months covered and reduce the payment for 6 months afterwards would give me a chance to get on my feet, get financially stable, and continue my sponsorship. Is there anyway I could do this? I appreciate Compassion's understanding and assistance in times of need!
Katie Garmon
I have updated your account today. Don't worry about the months of August through October, we've got you covered. Beginning in November, your rate will be $19 per month and the $38 rate won't resume until May of 2016. I'm excited for this new adventure ahead of you and pray for grace, energy, wisdom, and so so much more of learning just how special you are to Jesus and all that He has for you! Keep the letters up with your girl as often as you can, I know she always loves to hear from you :). Good luck in grad school!
Jasmin, thanks for the information! Your support will be current through the end of September now and we don't need anymore support until October. God bless you and have an incredible weekend :).
Regrettably, I'm still not finding an account for you guys under your name and email address. Do you have your child's ID number or your sponsor number? This would help me locate your account. Once I get into your account, I can also see why your donation did not go through. If you need to discontinue, I cannot do future cancels but we can make your child available for another sponsor when you're ready.
If you think that this change in your finances might just be short term as you adjust to a new country, new culture and home, and a new job, then we'd be happy to cover your support for a few months. We could cover your back support for Noemi (3 months) and bring her support current through February (another 3 months) and give you a fresh start beginning in March. We'd also be happy to cover Gayatri's support through the end of January and begin your support back up in February for this child. At this point, we could even reduce both children's rates to just $19 per child per month for up to six months.
If this still might be too much, you might consider going down to just sponsoring one child. This would reduce your monthly rate from $76 to just $38. I know you have been building a relationship with both children and this may be difficult but it might allow you to at least continue sponsorship with one child and not have to cancel both. Please let me know if any or all of these options would help you and I'll take care of your request.
If not, please let me know and I'll make these children available for another sponsor. In the meantime, I have stopped your automatic donations for Gayatri as she was the only child set up on auto withdrawal.
I am praying that God brings you wonderful new friendships and opportunities in your new country! I know it can be a scary, hard thing to move across the world, but God already has incredible plans ready for you. :)
In the meantime, keep loving on your sweet little girl! You've already been such a blessing to her by sending an encouraging letter :)!
I sent an email afew weeks back because I am dealing with financial issues as well, but no one responded, and the money was taken out of my account still. What do I need to do to cancel my sponsorship?
I want to encourage you that we sent you an email regarding children on your account that are behind in support as we don't want it to catch you off guard when children are removed from your account due to lack of support. We understand that circumstances arise and we're happy to help you.
We can help you out with these children at risk of being removed from your account that we emailed you about. I requested today that Lidiwrka Abigail's support be brought current through the end of September and Selamawit current through the end of October. I have also requested that the support for Ashly, Modhu, and Niyonizeye Miriam be brought current through the end of December. This is what we're able to do regarding covering back support for you. I have also requested that all of their rates be reduced to $19 for six months as well.
I pray that this helps you out and that your situation improves very soon!
Let me know if you have other questions.
We're absolutely happy to help you out during this time. I know that wedding prep can get expensive! As requested, I have updated your account so that your support is covered through the end of May. Your next withdrawal for your child will not happen until June 20th.
Have an incredible wedding and thank you for wanting to continue supporting your child through this exciting new season of your life! I would encourage you to send Pornpailin some photos of you and your husband after you get married. I know she'll love to be a part of this with you! :)
That's a great idea! I'll be sure to send her some photos. Thank you for everything, you're very kind! :)
Thank You.
This is my second child with compassion and although I am thrilled to be sponsoring Alex, I don't think I can handle the $38 a month with car expenses, working only so many hours at work, being a full time college student, and trying to save up money to move out of my parent's house. I would really hate to leave Alex, so if you can help me, that would be amazing, but if I end up not being able to care for him, I pray God will send a loving sponsor his way.
Thank you so much!
I have gotten behind but would like to start getting caught back up in a couple of weeks. I had a real struggle there for awhile but I love all the kids and want to continue. I just have not been able to help until now.
Regrettably, we are in the process of transitioning to a new system, and all of our transactions and requests will be delayed for the next few weeks. Therefore, it will take a couple of weeks for us to process this refund. I'm so sorry for any inconveniences this may cause and thank you so much for your grace and patience.
We greatly value you as a Compassion sponsor and the difference you're making in your child's life. We would be happy to help you by covering a couple months of support for you. This means that we would cover the months of January through March. This would be our gift to you, so you wouldn't need to reimburse Compassion. If this would help you, please let me know and I would be happy to take care of this for you. If not, and you would like to cancel your sponsorship, then I will make your child available for sponsorship. I look forward to your reply!
Hi I was wondering if I could get help on my payments as well. I have medical stuff I need to pay for doctors visits, medications and shots. I had a family member split the payment with but she backed out. I want to keep sponsoring my child. Help with payments would mean so much to me.
I am so sorry to hear that you are going through some medical problems and on top of that, your friend backed out on her part of your sponsorship! We know that sometimes life can get a little crazy. I have taken care of covering three months of sponsorship for you. This means that your account is completely covered from May through July, as I see you have already made your contribution for April. If you are still in need of a little help at that time, please let us know and we can talk about additional options. I hope this is helpful! :)
I too am experiencing some financial hardships, but I don't want to give up my sponsorship. I am currently having to pay for my last class in college and I'm having to work 2 jobs to do so. Are their any options I could take part in?
Thank you for your help!
I am on the same account as Leeanne. What do I need to do to suspend the sponsorship for a few months? Thank you!
Thank you so much Shannon!
I am so sorry to hear that you may need to cancel your sponsorship. I see that you have been sponsoring Lucien for quite some time! Because we value your sponsorship of Lucien, we would be happy to cover a few months of sponsorship, if you feel this would be helpful and would allow you to continue your relationship with Lucien. This means we would be happy to cover your account from June to August. Until we hear back from you, I have stopped your automatic withdraw, as it is set to pull tomorrow. Please let us know if you feel this would be helpful, and if not, I will be happy to fulfill your request to cancel.
Thank you
Shannon McNiel
I completely understand. I am so sorry to see things have not resolved quite yet. I have removed Lucien from your account today. Please know we would very blessed to partner with you in the future if you ever feel led to sponsor again!
I was wondering if I could get a 3 month break as well. My family is transitioning (new baby and new house) and will be scraping the bottom of the barrel for a few months. The $19 for 6 months after the 3 months would be a huge help as well. I was really sad about having to cancel my support of Japhet, but if this could be done for me I would feel a lot better. Thanks!
I have updated your account so that it's current through the end of June :). I'm praying that you find a new job quickly and that this helps while you get settled in a new job and get back on your feet. Come July, if your situation has not yet improved, let me know. We're happy to work with you. In the meantime, you're welcome to keep writing to Jose! He loves hearing from you and I know would love to be praying for you during this time!
We're so happy to help you out! I've updated your account so that your support is current through the end of October as it was already current through the end of July. We'll cover those next three months while you get back on your feet. The next withdrawal on your account won't happen until November 15th. But if your situation hasn't improved by then, please don't hesitate to contact us again so that we can re-evaluate and if necessary, reduce your rate for a few months.
You're such a blessing to Mihret and we appreciate your desire to help see him through to the end of the program! He treasures you and you're a wonderful sponsor!
I am going to need to cancel my sponsorship. I had received the payment assistance this year, but it expires this month. Unfortunately, next month my student loan and health insurance costs are rising. My sponsor number is 2852575.
Thank you!
I would like to transfer my sponsorship to my sister. She would like to take over paying for Giovanna as I am beginning to pay student loans and saving for a wedding. Can you assist me?
We're happy to work with you to help you to keep the relationship that you have with your child! You could take the summer off of donations while you get caught up on loans and car payments. This would mean that we would cover three months' support for you. Then in September, we could lower your support amount to $19 for six months. Regrettably, we are not able to do the lowered support amount for more than six months though because we would cover the difference.
If you need to change the debit date for your support like Lyanna did, I can definitely do that for you. We have dates on the 5th, 10th, 15th, and the 20th.
I know when I was in college, it worked better for me to pay everything for the semester upfront. If it works better for you to make a donation for several months at a time or a year at a time, feel free to do that. Four months of support would be $152, nine months of support would be $380, and twelve months of support would be $456. You could stop the automatic withdrawal or set it up for a quarterly or annual automatic withdrawal instead of a monthly withdrawal.
Let me know if either of these options or a combination would work for you.
I pray you're feeling better!
I too am struggling with student loan payments with extremely high interest rates right now. I would like to continue donating until Messeret finishes in a few months, but would also like to lower my payments, starting with June, to the $19 amount for the remainder of my sponsorship. Would this be possible?
Thank you
Could I possibly suspend my sponsorship for a few months?.
My father is currently unemployed, and though I will have a part time job for the summer, I have used up almost all of my savings during my time at a one year bible college overseas. I want to start rebuilding my savings account and also have that money set aside in case my family needs it.
I would like to suspend my account with Brian for about three months, please. If my father has a job by then, I would really like to continue sponsoring Brian, but if not, at that point I would really need to cancel my sponsorship; we would really just not be able to afford it.
I need to cancel my sponsorship with Brian, please. I really cannot support him financially, now.
Financial Issues But Don't Want To Cancel.
I have been sponsoring three girls and giving $35 a month to HVC as a college student but I recently got into a car wreck and need a new car. I really don't want to cancel but with current costs, it looks like I'll have to choose between car and insurance payments or my kids. No matter what I will have to cancel giving to HVC. Is there anything that can be done so I don't have to give up sponsorship of my three girls? I feel so bad about it.
I just finished my first year of college. I had budgeted money for my sponsorship for a year at the end of high school/beginning of last summer. My hope was to have a job to continue paying for my sponsorship by now, but God has had other plans. Unfortunately, I have missed payments for the past two months, as much as it hurts me to admit, I can not continue supporting my child. Could you please help me cancel my sponsorship?
Pray God for good future India
We truly appreciate your heart to want to continue sponsoring Gertrase even without having a job. If you would like, Compassion would be happy to cover the couple months that you had missed in addition to the next three months to allow you time to find a job. This means that your next sponsorship contribution would not be due until November. Please let us know if you feel this would allow you to continue your relationship with Gertrase. :)
We do agree with you. Many children need extra funding to be able to go to school, have enough to eat and a safe house to live in. Compassion was able to work for nearly 50 years in India. We began working in India in 1968, but sadly due to changes in government regulations, we did have to discontinue doing so. Compassion will continue to keep India in our prayers!
Sponsor Payment.
Hello, I'm sponsoring a child in Bolivia and I want to continue to do so. However, I am having financial problems and want to know if there's any way I can lower the payments until I'm able to find a steady job. Thanks.
Very Sad.
I am very sad to say that due to financial reasons, I am looking at the possibility that I may have to cancel my sponsorship of Jose and Kevin. I really do not want to cancel either one of them, these boys need my family and we need them. I know how it feels to think that no one loves you, and to feel abandoned. Unfortunately due to medical reasons I have been out of work since March, and just recently found out that I will not be able to return to work. We can not afford the monthly payments right now. Is there a way to stay in contact with the boys and suspend the payments only for a month or two?
Thank You
Mary Young
Wow, I'm so sorry that you have been out of work so long. I hope that you've been able to get disability or something during this time so that you're not going completely without an income. I will be praying for healing soon and hope that God has been really meeting you during this time of recovery. I so appreciate your heart of concern for your children as well! We really want to be able to help you to keep the very special relationship that you have with them if at all possible. I just covered the next three months of support for you. Please continue to stay connected through letters to your children since you are still sponsoring them during this time. Let us know how you are doing in October and we will reassess our options at that point. :)
Thank you, so much for doing that for me. You just showed not only me; but my own children that there is kindness in the world. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sometimes I forget that the Lord shows blessings when we least expect, but you helped to renew my spirit, just when I needed it the most. You have no idea what your gift has done. May the Lord bless you.
Can I get help with payments while I get back on my feet?.
I have been out of work for the past 2 months and I am not able to make payments. I just recently got a job and I want to continue to support my child Mercy! Is there anyway that I can get help for a couple months while I get back on my feet financially?
Are there options for sponsors going through a short term financial difficulty.
I was sponsoring a child with two other friends who can no longer support her. Unfortunately I can not fully support her by myself right now. I know in about a month I will be able to though. Is there anything I can do that will help me out in this situation so I don't have to cancel my sponsorship?
After reading this post it makes me feel better knowing that canceling the sponsorship is not the only option. Like many of the posters I am having a hard time keeping up with the payments. I am a single mom and with having to pay for summer camp and having to purchase back to school clothing and supplies I need help with the monthly donation. Please let me know who I need to contact in order to get assistance. Thank you
I love your profile pic! Is that one of your kids? I have to say that I think being a parent is tough enough but being a single mom has got to be one of the toughest jobs. You amaze me! :) I just covered three months of support for you. Please let me know if we can help in any other way.
I came into this discussion feeling very concerned and upset about having to cancel my sponsorship of Bibata. Can you imagine my excitement and relief when I realized that I have the option to suspend my payments and then reinstate them at a reduced cost? If you could please apply this to my account as well, I would be so appreciative. Not only are you all lifesavers for the children and families in need but you're lifesavers for the donors as well, as evidenced above.
Thank you!
I'm sorry for the concern and sadness that you felt going into this but glad that we are able to help! I have taken care of this for you so starting in November, you will be at the lower $19 support amount for six months. Thank you so much for your very kind words. I so appreciate your care and concern and commitment to helping children in poverty! We are blessed to partner with people like you!
Hope all is well. We have been struggling a bit to keep our account current. We made a partial payment today, but wanted to see if we could setup an arrangement similar to what you have been doing for others in the posts.
Any help your team can provide would be greatly appreciated.
I've been behind on my payments recently due to a change in my financial situation. I really do not want to stop my sponsorship but I dont think i can afford it right now. Do I have any other options other than cancelling my sponsorship?
i need help with my sponsorship.
i seen with prior messages that i may be able to get some assistance with my sponsorship. i really dont want to cancel it but i just started putting my toddler in school. any option?

My Barbarian loves cleaving skulls, but cleaving skulls is also dangerous because I am right in the middle of the action. The Templar follower has several heals at his disposal. They have a cooldown, although I don't know what it is exactly, and there have been several close calls (and a few unfortunate deaths) because I waited too long to use a health potion. I have wasted either a health potion and/or heals because I wasn't sure if he had a heal ready.
Is there any way to see the cooldowns for these abilities so I know if I can expect a heal or if I should drink a health potion?

We left Dexter Cutler, our 18-month-young wire fox terrier with the wonderful group of human friends and specialists at Paradise 4 Paws while we went to meet our newest grandchild in Washington DC. Dexter was invited as a VIP guest at Paradise 4 Paws in exchange for an honest review about how he was treated, played with, cuddled, and loved by this unique group of friends, as well as the other dogs he played with.
We received Doggy Reports and were able to see him in action from a live cam in his Presidential Suite. Honestly, my life didn't revolve around worrying how Dexter was doing each day, as I instinctively knew he was in the best possible doggy hands.
Top dog and owner Saq Nadeem, who was just written up in the Chicago Tribune's Business Section in a major favorable article, has set up several Paradise 4 Paws all close by major Airports. What a brilliant concept! He also posed for a great photo with Dexter dog!
Next year, when I go on future tours for my upcoming book, ONCE UPON OUR TIMES: 65 Years Growing Up Baby Boomer
(www.onceuponourtimes.com), before I board my plane at O'Hare International Airport, Dexter will be dropped off for one or more days at Paradise 4 Paws. That's a given. Now both Dexter and I will have the best, most relaxed times when he stays at Paradise 4 Paws.
July 12, 2013 5:30pm
This afternoon, I took Dexter for a Nature Hike. I went to his Suite to put his leash on and he was exhausted already from his morning playgroup! Once he saw that we were going for a walk, he bounced off of his bed and came running at me, tail going a hundred miles per hour. We got outside and he was very interested in the birds, grass, cars and even the rocks; what a funny guy! Along the way, he would stop to sniff flowers and trees and was always attentive to where I was. Dexter had a great time on his Nature Hike today – he's going to love it here in Paradise! - Megean

After potty breaks this evening, I went to Dexter's Suite for his Cuddle Time. He was standing at the door like he knew I was coming! I sat down on the floor and he was so excited that he jumped in my lap and was licking my face and wiggling like crazy. Once he calmed down, he sat next to me and eventually moved to his bed to lie down. I sat with him for half an hour just petting his head and helping him to fall asleep. After only about fifteen minutes, he was out cold! When Cuddle Time was over, I quietly got up, turned off his TV, said goodnight, and headed out. He sure was tired from his first day at Paradise 4 Paws! So many new friends and activities! - Alex

Splash Lessons are always a fun time and I was excited to introduce Dexter to the pool and get him to swim a little bit! I woke him up from his mid-day nap and brought him to the play area to potty before his swim lesson. I put on my tall boots and got some treats to entice him to the water and we were ready for his first Splash Lesson! I called Dexter over to the water and, although he wasn't really excited about the idea of going in, he got in the water slowly and walked off the bottom step all by himself! We did a couple laps around the pool and I lifted him up a few times so he could practice his doggie paddle. He was a trooper for his Splash Lesson and I think he ended up liking it! Plus, what a great workout! He was absolutely ready for another nap after our pool time. - Dya

As I was doing my rounds giving out lunches today, I got to Dexter's Presidential Suite and had a delicious peanut butter- filled Kong ready for him. I walked into the room and he could immediately smell the peanut butter…yum! Once I put the Kong down on the floor, he jumped on it and started biting at the peanut butter right away – didn't take him long to figure that out! I came back around to check on him a couple minutes later and he had already gotten all the peanut butter out – pretty impressive! - Rich

Today was Dexter's grooming appointment. I arrived at his room around 10:00am to walk him to the Grooming Room; he was very excited for another adventure! While he wasn't too fond of getting a bath (most dogs aren't!) he did enjoy getting his hair cut. He stood very well and liked it when guests in the lobby would come over and talk about how cute he was! I shortened his hair a bit and cleared away the hair around his eyes – a nice summer cut for the warm days ahead. He really was a pleasure to work with today and I know his parents will love his new hair cut! - Hilary
July 15, 2013 9:00am
I came to pick up Dexter from his room this morning and, wow, his hair cut looks adorable! Dexter and I walked to the Massage Room, where I have comfortable beds setup and some soothing music – just like a human spa. For the first couple minutes of his Massage, he was a bit confused about what I was doing. But once he realized how great the massage felt, he melted into my hands. At one point, he was falling asleep sitting up; head bobbing up and down. I worked out some tension he had in his shoulders and back and by the end of our thirty-minute massage, he was a mushy puddle of relaxation. Dexter really enjoyed his first massage and if he could talk, I bet he'd request another one very soon! Great meeting you, Dexter! - Alexia
Paradise 4 Paws is the perfect place for a dog vacation – for the dog and his extended human family. Price-wise, Paradise is compatible with most other dog day care and vacation stays. One key difference from many other alternatives is that Paradise 4 Paws offers every animal its own Suite, on the ground, rather than a cold-hearted cage (which both Dexter and I try to avoid at all costs). There is a full range of sizes of each Suite – and Dexter was offered the largest, a Presidential Suite fit for a King! The "extras" are worth it if you want more than the twice-daily exercise times.
As I mentioned before, when I'm out of town flying high, Dexter will be at the O'Hare Location of Paradise 4 Paws.
Reach Paradise 4 Paws at either O'Hare or Midway Airports by calling 847-678-1200 or emailing [email protected].
There is a new Paradise 4 Paws at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport plus expansion plans in the works near other airports in America. Paradise 4 Paws is located near both of Chicago's major airports.

The exhibit narrative begins in 1789 when the national government began operating under the new U.S. Constitution. In each section, visitors are introduced to one of Hamilton's rivals and their competing visions for the nation. This includes Hamilton's public dispute with James Madison over the scope of national power, arguments with Thomas Jefferson that developed into the nation's first political parties, disputes with John Adams over foreign policy, and a final clash with Aaron Burr, whom Hamilton believed was an unprincipled man. Additionally, the exhibit examines Hamilton's personal struggles, which revolved around his keen sense of honor, and concludes with an exploration of his legacy.
In each exhibit case, rare documents and artifacts explore these competing arguments and reveal the fragility of the new nation. Artifact highlights include:
- An anonymously published essay in the National Gazette in which James Madison, without mentioning Hamilton by name, directs criticism at the treasury secretary (American Philosophical Society Library, 1792)
- A to-do list written by Thomas Jefferson, which captures his main divergence with Hamilton: limiting the power of the national government and bolstering that of the states (Library of Congress, 1792)
- The Reynold's Pamphlet: Hamilton's 95-page refutation of public corruption charges, in which he admitted to adultery (American Philosophical Society Library, 1797)
- Hamilton's portable writing desk from the late 1700s (Burke Library at Hamilton College)
- A letter published by Hamilton in 1800, in which he questions John Adams's competence to be president (The Historical Society of Pennsylvania)
- Handwritten regulations for the duel between Hamilton and Aaron Burr (New-York Historical Society, 1804)
- Exact replicas of the original Hamilton-Burr dueling pistols, ca. 1976 (JPMorgan Chase Corporate History Collection)
- A 1788 first edition copy of The Federalist, a work that remains one of Hamilton's greatest legacies (National Constitution Center Collection)
Cost: Included with general admission: Adults $14.50; Youth (6-18) $11; Students w/ID and Seniors $13. Members, active military personnel, and children ages 5 and under are free.

text: Not even 24 hours after DirecTV backed Championship Gaming Series went belly up in the shrinking pond that is professional gaming, Dr Pepper has announced that are backing a pro-gamer in their first every national distribution deal for an athlete. Excellent timing.Major League Gaming's Tom "Tsquared" Taylor's visage will appear on about 175 million 20-ounce bottles of Dr P from January to April, the New York Times reports. That's about 80 percent of the bottles rolling out during that time period. The New York Times doesn't go into the money behind the deal, nor does it explain both the importance and odd-timing of the announcement. With the Championship Gaming Series flat-lining earlier this week, it joins the CPL and World Series of Video Games in the morgue of pro-gaming competitions. This deal with Dr Pepper, it seems, could be the opening volley in pro-gaming's Alamo. Maybe it's time for the World Cyber Games and the Electronic Sports League to hustle down to Texas and get into that fort before the gates swing shut. It's better to make a heroic last stand, I think, then go out with a whimper and a website announcement. A Drink Backed by a Sports Hero (Wielding a Mean Game Controller) [New York Times]

How can one bird provide so many tastes? Chicken rubs can be used alone or combined with different marinades and brines to make your campfire meal delicious and unique. But that's not where the flavoring ends. Try different woods on the fire, too, such as cedar, apple wood or mesquite. Here are a few delicious rubs to try.
MORE: 5 Marinades for Mouth-Watering Camp Food
Rub It the Right Way
Before you can season any chicken, you have to know the right way to rub it. Here are a few basic tips:
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels before you apply the rub.
- Just a few tablespoons of any rub are enough for a whole chicken.
- Large seeds need to be ground to get the most of their flavor. Use a mortar and pestle or a clean coffee grinder at the campsite. If you have an RV, plug in your food processor, which will also grind most seeds.
- The longer the chicken rub stays on, the stronger the flavor. When you find a rub you like, leave it on for a short period of time. For a stronger taste with a subtly flavored rub, put it both under and on the skin and let it sit for a while. Fat from the skin bastes the bird and helps to better develop the flavor.
- Keep the rubbed chicken in a cool place until it's time to cook.
- To kick up the flavor of a deli-roasted chicken, re-heat it at camp, brush it with melted butter and then add your rub.
- Experiment with specialty salts such as Hawaiian Black Lava Salt, Fleur de Sel, Celtic Sea Salt or Kala Namak.
Now that you know the basics, give these chicken rubs a try on your next camping trip.

It remains to be seen whether Colorado quarterback commitment Shane Dillon being named to the prestigious national Eliite 11 QB list becomes a blessing or a curse.
Expectations are sure to rise. But it does indicate that the senior-to-be at El Cajon (Calif.) Christian has the physical gifts and mental sharpness to succeed at the next level.
Read the story here from Rivals.com's Adam Munsterteiger, publisher of BuffStampede.com, who writes:
24 of the nation's top quarterback prospects from the Class of 2012 competed for five days at Pepperdine University in Malibu, Calif., this past week with the goal of being named an Elite 11 quarterback.
Colorado commitment Shane Dillon could not contain his emotions when he achieved that goal on Friday.
"Oh my gosh, [being named an Elite 11 quarterback] is a dream come true," Dillon said in a text message to BuffStampede.com.
At El Cajon (Calif.) Christian high school, Dillon recorded 2,982 yards and completed 19 touchdowns during a junior year. He committed to CU and also got offers from Ohio State, Arizona, Cincinnati and Vanderbilt.

Prevent Blindness warns that there is no safe way for nonprofessionals to use fireworks. The safest way to enjoy the splendor and excitement of fireworks is at a professional display.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, fireworks are involved in thousands of injuries treated in U.S. hospital emergency rooms each year.
Most fireworks injuries occur during the one month period surrounding the Fourth of July. Most fireworks injuries occur during the one month period surrounding the Fourth of July.
Fireworks and celebrations go together, especially during the Fourth of July, but there are precautions parents can take to prevent these injuries. The best defense against kids suffering severe eye injuries and burns is to not let kids play with any fireworks.
Protect yourself, your family and your friends by avoiding fireworks. Attend only authorized public fireworks displays conducted by licensed operators, but be aware that even professional displays can be dangerous.
If an accident does occur, minimize the damage to the eye. In the event of an eye emergency:
Prevent Blindness supports the development and enforcement of bans on the importation, sale and use of all fireworks, except those used in authorized public displays by licensed operators, as the only effective means of eliminating the social and economic impact of fireworks-related trauma and damage.
