Obama and Sen. Daschle want you to have seat at the table




The incoming Obama administration wants you to have a seat at the table on health care reform.

Tell them why we can't wait to fix health care in America.


There's an old saying in Washington -- "If you're not at the table, you're on the menu."

If that's true, then it's time to take our seats. President-elect Obama is moving forward with his plans to reform health care in America -- and he wants to hear from you.

His choice to head the Department of Health and Human Services, Sen. Tom Daschle, is asking Americans to share their health care concerns and experiences. Now's your chance to tell him and the incoming Obama administration what matters to you.

Show President-elect Obama that you're ready to stand behind his team's bipartisan effort to bring access to quality, affordable health care. Tell us what you think about health care reform, and we'll share your responses with the Obama transition team.

President-elect Obama traveled the country telling Americans he would work across the aisle to provide every American access to quality, affordable health care. And, thanks to you, more than two-thirds of Congress has pledged to join him in doing just that.

But Obama will have a lot on his plate come January 20 -- and many think health care should take a back seat to the economic crisis.

What we don't hear a lot about is how, for many Americans, these two issues are very much related. It's up to you to make sure the incoming Obama administration team gets the message that we cannot wait to fix health care.

There are 1.6 million of you out there -- and now President-elect Obama and Sen. Daschle want you to have seat at the table.

Will you take it?

Tell Obama and Daschle why health care is at the top of your priorities -- and why it must remain at the top of theirs.

After you take action, send this email along to your friends and family. The more voices we bring to the table, the more likely both parties will work together to get this done.

Sincerely,
The Divided We Fail Team

Experts question benefit of school time-out rooms



DES MOINES, Iowa – After failing to finish a reading assignment, 8-year-old Isabel Loeffler was sent to the school's time-out room — a converted storage area under a staircase — where she was left alone for three hours.

The autistic Iowa girl wet herself before she was finally allowed to leave.

Appalled, her parents removed her from the school district and filed a lawsuit.

Some educators say time-out rooms are being used with increased frequency to discipline children with behavioral disorders. And the time outs are probably doing more harm than good, they add.

"It really is a form of abuse," said Ken Merrell, head of the Department for Special Education and Clinical Sciences at the University of Oregon. "It's going to do nothing to change the behavior. You're using it as an isolation booth."

Segregating children removes them from the positive aspect of the classroom and highlights that they're different from other children, said Stephen Camarata, director of the Kennedy Center for Behavioral Research at Vanderbilt University. And isolating an autistic child might be particularly counterproductive.

"They don't like being around other people so they might increase their negative behavior because they view it a reward," he said.

Though there is no data on the use of time-out rooms, Camarata speculates that they've become widespread as schools confronted a growing enrollment of children with behavior disorders.

"I believe it's because classrooms are much less flexible with more focus on compliance," he said.

The Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund in Berkeley, Calif., receives calls from parents across the country who complain about time-out rooms, said Cheryl Theis, an education advocate for the organization.

"Parents call and say their child's disability has been exacerbated by this and are traumatized by this," she said.

Merrell said he's encountered time-out rooms he felt were unsafe.

"I once consulted with a school in another state and had a weekly appointment with a child to do some counseling and when I got there they told me he was in a time-out room," he said. "He was in a janitor's closet with no windows, no ventilation, open cans of paint, a mop bucket with disinfectant and he had been in there for over an hour."

By MICHAEL J. CRUMB, Associated Press Writer

Perhaps this situation occurs far too frequently. What do you think? We hear a lot about children being our future but it appears to me some will be left behind. Let's opt for change and do all we can to not only offer the best education for all children but also to do the tough things that need to be done to assure their have safe and healthy learning environments!

I am so grateful for the loving care I received from my teachers - a kind of care that compelled me to excel!

Debates Over Body Language




Debates over as candidates face final days of race Make Money Online

Here's some information regarding how actions often speak louder than words. Background behavior in live debates: the effects of the implicit ad hominem fallacy.

This study examined the effects of background nonverbal behavior displayed with the purpose of undermining one's opponent in live debates. Students participated as audience members in one of three versions of a live debate. In one version, the nonspeaking debater remained "stone faced" during her opponent's speech, while in the other two she displayed either occasional or nearly constant nonverbal disagreement. After viewing the debates, students rated the debaters' credibility, appropriateness, and debating skills, in addition to judging who won the debate. Analysis indicated that background nonverbal behavior influenced audience perceptions of some, but not all, dimensions of speaker credibility and only one dimension of debate skill. These results and their implications are discussed.

Money Watch




A trader on the Dow Jones ponders the market's ups and downs.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPrZhQkxa5s

More bad news on Wall Street as a Federal Reserve report shows that the economy has slowed and many warn it's not going to bounce back anytime soon. Alexis Christoforous reports.

(CNN) -- Shares slid Wednesday on fears of recession but there were also signs that the international bailout of the financial sector was working.

A trader on the Dow Jones ponders the market's ups and downs.

After two days of soaring stocks, markets in Europe, Asia and the U.S. fell with New York's Dow Jones suffering its second worst daily points decline.

But that was the result of regular economic data rather than the extraordinary financial crisis.

The gains of Monday and Tuesday were sparked by Britain, Germany, France, and the U.S. announcing banking bailout plans totaling more than $3 trillion.

Amid Wednesday's market falls, there were signs that the bailout investments were working.

The overnight bank-to-bank lending rate slid, according to data obtained from Bloomberg.com. That signals an increased willingness by banks to lend to each other, which eventually translates into lower borrowing costs for consumers.

A stream of bad news buffeted stocks though, including the worst U.S. retail sales figures in three years, a surge in UK unemployment and predictions that recessions were unavoidable in the U.S. and Europe.

The FTSE 100 closed the day 7.16 percent down, while the CAC 40 in Paris lost 6.82 percent of its value and the German DAX 30 fell by 6.49 percent.

The Dow Jones ended down 733 points, or 7.9 percent, according to preliminary tallies. The Nasdaq lost 8.5 percent and the S&P nine percent.

Real Leadership




Leadership is a role we frequently perform. We are always modeling appropriate or inappropriate leadership. Sometimes I think we are “playing” leader and have not really developed our character fully. At times, I come away from training opportunities thinking, “Lord, help me to be gracious with my words.”

I believe, at times, our passion gets in the way of graciousness – we are going after fulfillment of the goal and forget to be kind to others on the way. It’s quite possible many of us behave in unseemly ways at times. What’s that old adage about honey attracting worker bees? If we want to successfully help others make money online, it will be directly connected with our ability to be a great leader.

Maybe we are consumed with the Leadership Role? Maybe it has gone to our head and we have forgotten that not all of us will be at the same place at the same time. Leadership is extremely important! I want to do it right and I know that it is a growing edge – for me, the challenging question remains, “Where does the role end and I begin?” In other words, in the end all we have is who we are – our character, our abilities, and our opportunities – just for a time to make a difference.

I read somewhere that whenever we base our identity or worth as a person on our role as a leader, we are betraying ourselves and missing the best that is out there for us. We are so much more than our role as leaders!! We are valuable and each of you is important to me. We shape and form one another – maybe if we are not careful, our passion for leadership will result in warped characters?

Obviously, for me, Leadership is a God-given gift – one we are to treasure and nurture and develop in healthy ways not in unhealthy and destructive ways. We do not own our talents and abilities – they are just on loan to us to use to make for a better world.

Leadership is modeled; it is so much more than demands and expectations that others become and do and act how we say that should. I want the best for everyone – I am a cheerleader who, at times, shows appropriately how to be a leader. The way I look at leadership, we are all winners – some have a gift for leadership and others of us, must learn how to be a leader!

Showdown Set for McCain and Letterman









Sen. John McCain launched his presidential campaign on the Late Show with David Letterman.

Will he end it there as well?

After canceling an appearance last month and causing some bruised feelings on David Letterman's part, McCain is coming back to the Late Show this Thursday, Oct. 16, to face the music, courtesy of Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra.

Considering McCain has appeared on the show 12 times (including the appearance shown above), it's probably safe to assume the senator and the talk show host will make amends. But there's always the chance the chat could turn hostile, which would be great for ratings.

And possibly McCain's opponent Sen. Barack Obama.

To recap: According to Letterman, McCain had called the host to tell him he was "racing back to Washington" to get to work on the financial crisis, only to show up on the CBS in-house feed being interviewed by Katie Couric for a news segment.

Since that Sept. 24 non-appearance, Letterman has repeatedly served up McCain as a punch line, which may explain why the presidential candidate is making time to return to the Late Show despite presumably more pressing campaign matters to attend to.

Like that election on Nov. 4.

Whatever the outcome of the US elections, we will need to seek financial stability in our households.
