The Presbyterian Church has submitted four overtures to their Peace River Presbytery. The overtures are currently under review by a presbytery committee and will be voted upon at the November 17, 2005 meeting of the Presbytery.
Specifically, in one of the overtures, they are attempting to moderate the Church’s language towards Israel and stop the divestment plan.
The overtures are available for reading on the Truth in Love Network Blog.

CREATE WARM SUKKAH MEMORIES
Yesterday, we featured an article about how quality-time spent
around the dinner table impacts children in a myriad of ways. The
upcoming festival of Sukkos (Tabernacles), when families -- both
immediate and extended -- share meals and song in outdoor,
biblically-designed booths, is a great way to also provide the young
(and young at heart) with long-lasting memories of togetherness.
National Sukkah Outlet -- http://www.SukkahOutlet.com/ -- has quite
a selection of EASY TO ASSEMBLE and REASONABLY PRICED sukkahs of
varied sizes, from personal to congregational. And they ship
anywhere. Worldwide.
Why not take a few moments now to check out their site or call them
at 1-800-778-5624.

CREATE WARM SUKKAH MEMORIES
Yesterday, we featured an article about how quality-time spent
around the dinner table impacts children in a myriad of ways. The
upcoming festival of Sukkos (Tabernacles), when families -- both
immediate and extended -- share meals and song in outdoor,
biblically-designed booths, is a great way to also provide the young
(and young at heart) with long-lasting memories of togetherness.
National Sukkah Outlet -- http://www.SukkahOutlet.com/ -- has quite
a selection of EASY TO ASSEMBLE and REASONABLY PRICED sukkahs of
varied sizes, from personal to congregational. And they ship
anywhere. Worldwide.
Why not take a few moments now to check out their site or call them
at 1-800-778-5624.

Misunderestimated again: Bush and recovery from Katrina
September 21st, 2005
George W. Bush is well-accustomed to his political opponents handing him the invaluable asset of their misplaced contempt for his abilities. An overconfident enemy is a blessing to any strategist. But in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, members of his own coalition are beginning to express dismay and outright anger over his response, particularly his willingness to spend vast amounts of the federal budget on palliation of the immediate suffering and the reconstruction of New Orleans and the affected areas of Mississippi and Alabama.
Enemies and allies alike are once again failing to understand that a highly-trained strategist is at work, and that the foundations are being established for the achievement of long-term goals. Let the approval ratings languish in the low forties; they mean no more than did Ronald Reagan's low approval ratings at certain moments. George W. Bush has his eyes on bigger goals, and understands the means by which they will be achieved.
As I wrote almost a year and a half ago,
[an] important lesson the President learned at Harvard Business School is to embrace a finite number of strategic goals, and to make each one of those goals serve as many desirable ends as possible. The truism of this lesson is that if everything is a priority, then nothing is a priority. If you can't focus on everything, then you need to be able to focus on those few goals which will have the broadest impact, leading to a future capacity to attain other desirable ends. No exact number of goals is the limit, but three is an awfully good number to aim at. Those goals should be mutually consistent, so that the step-by-step accomplishment of each one aids in the achievement of the others.
The President's strategic goals remain remarkably consistent: 1) position America to win the War on terror (a goal thrust upon his presidency in 2001); 2) keep America's economy growing; 3) position the Republican Party to dominate American politics in the foreseeable future.
His response to Hurricane Katrina is being shaped by these three goals, as well as (and even more importantly) by the genuine humanitarian impulse to help fellow Americans and fellow souls when they are most in need. As a deeply religious man and a genuine compassionate conservative, the President would respond generously and vigorously under any circumstances. But he is doing so in a way which will also meet his strategic goals. The need to formulate and satisfy multiple consistent goals and prioritize actions accordingly is one of the key lessons that the first president in history to be expertly trained in management at Harvard Business School learned well, and has practiced over and over again.
Among the three meta-goals of the Bush Strategic Vision, number 1, victory in the War on Terror, is the most important overall (the future of civilization rides on it), but least relevant to recovery from Hurricane Katrina. Nevertheless, it is a consideration. Our sworn enemies as well as some of our more weasel-like supposed friends are standing ready to announce that America is reeling from this natural disaster, a "pitiful, helpless giant," to resurrect a Nixonian phrase. The appearance of weakness is a form of actual vulnerability in this war for hearts and minds all over the globe. Suicidal terrorists are encouraged by the belief that America is on the ropes, so a demonstration of our ability to bounce back vigorously from any setback is important to our long-run victory.
Goal 2, enhancing our economic performance, is being carefully and cleverly achieved in President Bush's response. Excessive regulation is one of the obstacles hobbling even better economic growth, and there is ample evidence that the President is using Katrina as a lever to allow loosening of counterproductive regulations. On September 8th, the Davis-Bacon Act, a cornerstone of union strength in the construction trades, was suspended in areas affected by the storm. Davis-Bacon requires that federally-financed construction projects pay so-called "prevailing wages" (meaning above-market union wages) whether or not union members are involved in the work, and grossly inflates the cost of contruction wherever it is applied. Its suspension will function as a demonstration that federal construction costs can be dramatically reduced when the government gets out of the way of the efficient functioning of the marketplace. Moreover, Davis-Bacon has its origins in attempts to keep low wage blacks out of the construction trades, and still harms blacks in its application.
Expect further efforts to allow temporary deregulation of construction and other economic activities, such as useless lengthy environmental reviews. Moreover, there is a good chance for public school students evacuated elsewhere to be offered education vouchers for private schools, especially given the overcrowding of public schools in areas housing large numbers of evacuees. Any opportunity to demonstrate the effectiveness of vouchers is anathema to the education establishment. But they will be harder-pressed than usual to oppose them when the needs of Katrina victims are so pressing and obvious.
To the horror of many fiscally conservative supporters of the President, he is also opening the federal treasury wide at a time of large deficits. As Nick Danger has pointed-out, the President understands debt from the perspective of a financier, while many on the right approach debt as a moral offense. Debt, per se, is merely a fiscal tool, and in the long term structural environment of the global economy, America has access to a huge amount of government borrowing from overseas lenders who have at least as strong a need to loan to us as we have a need to borrow from them.
The President is correctly convinced that tax cuts are essential to our further economic growth. Although the absolute dollar amounts of our deficits and debt are large, as a percentage of our rapidly-growing economy, they are well within historic norms. Ronald Reagan was denounced for his deficit spending and tax cuts, yet sparked a historic turnaround of the miserable Jimmy Carter economy with no significant economic downside from his deficit spending. While substantial, future deficits present little threat to our welfare.
The need to rebuild both public infrastructure and private businesses and homes will spark a new construction boom, and contribute mightily to economic growth over the next few years. Federal financing of much of this activity will help keep the economy moving, while Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve make it clear that inflation will not be allowed to rear its ugly head.
Goal three, ensuring continued and expanded GOP political dominance, is also being furthered by the President's response. Consistent, supportive humanitarian assistance based on the principle that benefits should flow to victims, rather than to bureaucracies, will demonstrate to African Americans and others that Republicans are not mean-spirited racists. The slurs of rappers and media figures aside, money talks. The President and the GOP will inevitably chip away at the 90% Democrat vote share, as the benefits flow and people improve their lot in life.
Expect the President to supplement initial efforts with follow-up programs empowering individuals to build better lives for themselves and their families. By tying benefits to individuals as much as possible, as in school vouchers, the advantages of personal choice will be made clear to people whose habitual stance has been that of victims, accustomed to making demands rather than choices. Welfare reform has already demonstrated the happy effects of putting people in charge of their lives and getting them out of the imprisonment of dependence.
If Democrat-voting minorities do not return to New Orleans in massive numbers, there is every indication that Louisiana will become a GOP stronghold, just like its neighbors in the South. It is New Orleans votes that have sufficed to elect governors and senators of the Democrat persuasion, making Louisiana the anomalous Southern Democrat stronghold it has remained since the end of Reconstruction. An enhanced GOP majority in the Senate will be helpful in further re-population of the federal judiciary with those who believe the Constitution means what it says.
George W. Bush has more than three years left in office to implement this strategy. Let his enemies relax in the dubious assumption that they have him on the ropes. That belief has betrayed them many times in the past. It is his conservative allies who need to pay close attention, and understand that he knows and understands strategy in a way no other president ever has.

Ambulance company puts out call for up 200 temporary workers
Article published Sep 21, 2005
The Associated Press
Its crews scattered and the need for ambulances driven up by Hurricane Katrina, the emergency medical company that covers most of southern Louisiana put out a call Wednesday for 200 temporary workers.
Acadian Ambulance Service Inc. is getting 100 more calls a day than it did before the storm, and must delay some responses 12 to 24 hours so life-threatening emergencies can be dealt with immediately, said Richard Zuschlag, the company's president.
Many employees who lived in southeast Louisiana have moved to other states, he said.
Traffic jams, especially in Baton Rouge, where the population doubled overnight, are causing other problems. Helicopters are making trips that ordinarily would use ambulances, Zuschlag said.
He said Acadian would hire nurses, paramedics and emergency medical technicians for 30 to 90 days.
The call went out as Hurricane Rita made it possible that crews would need to evacuate nursing homes in the southwest half of the state.
"That's a completely separate matter," Zuschlag said.

Many people don't recognize the control issues all around them ---
and we rarely acknowledge ourselves as controlling. How do you
identify controlling behavior in others? How can you cope with it
successfully? Most importantly, how can you utilize this inner need

The most shocking outcome of last week's U.N. summit was the
failure, once again, of the world organization to take a definitive
stand against terrorism. It was scarcely surprising that the 191
member-states could not come to agreement on adding members to the
Security Council or on sweeping management reforms or on foreign
aid, however disappointing these failures were to some. But a

Man, 41, accused of running down teen
Call me silly, but this seems more like assault with a deadly weapon if not attempted murder.
Morrell said while police are still investigating, they believe the incident may be connected to another incident earlier on Sunday in which a bicycle was stolen. The lieutenant said the juvenile is not believed to have been involved in the bicycle theft, but may have been associated with or known who was involved.
According to the police report, the juvenile was taken to Bristol Hospital for treatment of minor cuts and bruises. No further information about his condition was available Sunday night.
Morrell said Wiecek was released after posting $10,000 bond and will be arraigned in Bristol Superior Court Sept. 26.

Hospitals fight for life as floodwaters recede
By David Crary
ASSOCIATED PRESS
September 19, 2005
NEW ORLEANS -- This city's health care facilities have been shattered to an extent unmatched in U.S. history, and its hospital system faces grave challenges as residents begin returning, the vice president of the national hospital accreditation organization said yesterday.
The official, Joe Cappiello, said several hospitals were probably damaged beyond repair by Hurricane Katrina, while some may try to rush back into business before conditions are safe. Others, while rebuilding, may lose doctors and nurses to communities elsewhere.
The flooded areas of New Orleans continued shrinking as waters recede, but crews were still searching by boat yesterday for the dead. The state Department of Health and Hospitals said the hurricane death toll in Louisiana had risen to 646. The toll across the Gulf Coast was 883, and that number was still expected to rise.
"Essentially, the health care infrastructure of New Orleans is gone. It no longer exists," said Mr. Cappiello, who just completed a three-day mission to the city along with a colleague from the Illinois-based Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations.
Although the city has more than a dozen hospitals, none has resumed normal operations. Officials at Children's Hospital, which Mayor C. Ray Nagin had hoped would be ready when residents are allowed to return to the Uptown neighborhood this week, said they may need 10 more days to prepare.
Mr. Nagin's plan is to start repopulating the city neighborhood by neighborhood, starting today with the Algiers section, across the Mississippi River from downtown New Orleans. Over the next week and a half, the Garden District and the French Quarter, the city's historic heart, are due to open to residents and businesses.
Mr. Cappiello expressed concern that some hospitals, desperate to get back into business for competitive as well as public-service reasons, might move too quickly, before all mold and contaminants from the flooding are removed.
"I hope there's someone looking at all the health care assets and making sound decisions as the mayor faces overwhelming political pressure to let people back in," Mr. Cappiello said. "The federal government needs to go in there and make sure the hospitals are a safe environment before they're reopened."
Many local doctors and nurses are without paychecks, he said. "There's a nationwide shortage of nurses," he said. "People will try to recruit them, and many may never come back."
He cited Charity Hospital, where floodwaters continue to be pumped out, as one that seemed beyond repair.
The hospitals seemed to have been well-prepared for Katrina's howling winds, but not for the disastrous flooding that came after, Mr. Cappiello said. That foiled plans to evacuate critically ill patients and knocked out backup generators that would keep air conditioning and lifesaving equipment on.
At Memorial Medical Center, doctors and staff worked valiantly during the worst of the flood to evacuate more than 200 patients by boat and helicopter, but 45 patients -- most of them critically ill -- died at the hospital.
"We're going to hear of a thousand more acts of heroism," Mr. Cappiello said. "But the bottom line is that having a response plan that relies on heroism is not tenable."
At a couple of hospitals, he said, officials ordered a lockdown of pharmaceutical supplies, wanting to protect them from looters when their hospitals emptied. They later learned that staff were unable to gain access to the drugs to aid ailing patients after flooding thwarted evacuation plans.
"Doctors and nurses who stayed behind were scrambling to find drugs for their critically ill patients," he said. "They had to make choices that we ordinarily don't make in America, to help those with the greatest chance of survival."
Mr. Cappiello also said he had heard unconfirmed reports that some doctors may have euthanized some critically ill patients who could not be evacuated, rather than leaving them to die from the flooding.
"Sometimes horrible decisions like that have to be made," he said.
• Associated Press writer Cain Burdeau in New Orleans contributed to this report.

Likewise, my SINCERE GRATITUDE to those who have written to say that
they are praying for Menachem Elimelech ben (son of) Tova Matil. For
more than 2 months he's been on ICU -- and life support -- and now
is running a high fever and not responding. Let's continue to storm
the Heavens. Prayers are priceless!
In gratitude and friendship,
Binyamin L. Jolkovsky
