A family in your region is part of this incredible research that will soon change the world. Research into Jordan’s Syndrome could unlock some of our greatest medical mysteries including intellectual disabilities, Autism, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and even cancer. There are approximately 170 known cases of Jordan’s Syndrome presently. However, it is estimated that approximately 200,000 people worldwide suffer from Jordan’s Syndrome and are either undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Jordan’s Syndrome is a mutation on the genes PPP2R5D, PPP2R5C, and PPP2R1A. The syndrome can cause low muscle tone, global developmental delays, larger head size, seizures, Autism, and behavioral challenges among other symptoms. Jordan’s Guardian Angels is a 501(c)(3) foundation based in Sacramento, California piloting the research effort that includes top universities across the United States and around the world. Our story began with one family and their beautiful little girl. Today, we’ve united dozens of families around the world. We’re on a mission to make a better future for our children, and potentially millions more, through research that world-renowned medical experts believe will change the world.

  • Religion And/On American Television “From Heartland to Quality: a Historical Trajectory of Religious Dramas on American TV” Charlotte E
    Religion and/on American Television “From Heartland to Quality: A Historical Trajectory of Religious Dramas on American TV” Charlotte E. Howell, Boston University When I posed this question for Flow, I chose to emphasize the current American television landscape because of the sheer abundance afforded by Peak TV: with hundreds of new scripted shows created each year and the glut of distribution channels looking to make a name for themselves, religion seems to have suddenly become an acceptable aspect of dramatic content. Following almost two decades of wider cultural discourse that Hollywood productions (and producers) avoided or even disparaged religion, the current boom in religious programming has been gaining attention. In Austin, the ATX TV Festival had a panel about it. Journalists are taking notice; Alyssa Rosenberg wrote in 2015, “If any year should give the lie to the idea that pop culture is hostile to religion in general or Christianity in particular, it’s 2015. I can’t think of a year that did more to present Christianity (and occasionally Judaism) as a force for genuine heroism.”1 Her examples to support that claim focused on television: Jane The Virgin (CW, 2014-), Transparent (Amazon, 2014-), and The Americans (FX, 2013-). And yet, running through many of these journalistic and industry articulations of the current moment is the assumption that Hollywood is de facto resistant to religion and it is only during the last few years of unprecedented content possibilities that ideology is changing. In this response, I hope to articulate the historical trajectory that the popular culture and trade attention often ignores.

  • General History the Diocese of Vincennes—Now the Archdiocese of Indianapolis—Was Established by Pope Gregory XVI on May 6, 1834
    General History The Diocese of Vincennes—now the Archdiocese of Indianapolis—was established by Pope Gregory XVI on May 6, 1834. The territory then comprised the entire state of Indiana and the eastern third of Illinois. The latter was separated from the Diocese of Vincennes upon the establishment of the Diocese of Chicago, November 28, 1843. By decree of Pope Pius IX, January 8, 1857, the northern half of the state became the Diocese of Fort Wayne, the boundaries being that part of the state north of the south boundaries of Fountain, Montgomery, Boone, Hamilton, Madison, Delaware, Randolph, and Warren counties. The remaining southern half of the state made up the Diocese of Vincennes, embracing 50 counties. It covered an area of 18,479 square miles extending from the north boundaries of Marion and contiguous counties to the Ohio River and from Illinois on the west to Ohio on the east. The second bishop of Vincennes was permitted by apostolic brief to establish his resi- dence at Vincennes, Madison, Lafayette, or Indianapolis; Vincennes was, however, to remain the see city. This permission, with the subtraction of Lafayette, was renewed to the fourth bishop. Upon his appointment in 1878, Bishop Francis Chatard, the fifth bishop of Vincennes, was directed to fix his residence at Indianapolis. Although the site of the cathedral and the title of the see were continued at Vincennes, Bishop Chatard used St. John the Evangelist Parish in Indianapolis as an unofficial cathedral until the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul was completed in 1907. St. John the Evangelist Parish, established in 1837, was the first parish in Indianapolis and Marion County.

  • Guardian Angels Opening a Chapter
    Guardian Angels Opening a Chapter Interactivism The Guardian Angels do not invade cities. They do not set up shop in a vacuum and expect everyone to take them or leave them. The key to successfully solving community problems is to get as many members of that community involved and cooperating. In some instances, the Guardian Angels can act as a hub through which a community’s divergent groups interact. In some cases, these groups may have problems working with each other. The Guardian Angels can act as a go-between or neutral party. People are familiar with the term activist. It means a person who is involved in some action for some cause. Usually, most activists simply conform to their own agenda and mission. In many cases this approach works. These days, however, you need to network and cooperate to gain greater returns. In fact, the very act of networking and cooperating usually solves the problem by itself. The Guardian Angels use a term called “Interactivism.” We are all activists, but we believe that our goal is not only to help solve problems for the community; it is also getting the community more involved in solving its own problems. We strive to diligently work with all the community elements to orchestrate a united front of good will and problem solving. Organizing the Elements of a Community: È Police, Highway, and Sheriff’s Department È Police Commissioners È City and District Attorney’s Offices È Elected Mayor, Council members, County Supervisors È Public Transit Agencies È Government Services and Agencies È Neighborhood Councils or Advisory Groups È Neighborhood Watches È Churches È Community Organizations (Coalitions, Associations, Clubs) È Non-profit Organizations (Local and National) È Businesses and Business Associations (Chamber of Commerce) È Retail È Corporations È Residents È Schools and Colleges Copyright © 2003 Guardian Angels Page 30 Guardian Angels: 6.

  • The Guardian Angels Anniversary Gala Journal
    The Guardian Angels Anniversary Gala Journal Empowering Individuals to Keep it Safe Wednesday, June 8, 2011 The Pierre | Fifth Avenue & 61ST Street | New York City Dear Friends, Welcome one and all to The Guardian Angels 32nd Gala Dinner, our primary fundraising event held once each year. We are pleased to wish our long-time supporters in attendance tonight, as well as guests less familiar with our organization, an enjoyable and memorable evening. As struggling economic times continue, many communities across the nation have been forced to layoff police, including Oakland, California, and Newark, Camden, and Paterson, New Jersey. In these cities, already high crime rates escalated as a result of recent layoffs. Mayors and police departments in these communities reached out to The Guardian Angels for help, and we have responded in force. We sent seasoned patrols to these areas who are working to help concerned local citizens form their own Guardian Angels chapters. Our goal, as always, is to lend a hand, empowering everyday citizens to help themselves. We also helped curb a dangerous situation in Huntington Station, New York. The city was under siege by gang members - Bloods, Crips, MS13s and Latin Kings. The problem was so grave that the Huntington school board decided to close the Jack Abramson Middle School because of random drive-by shootings and gang fights occurring in and around the school in broad daylight. Never before had a school in the U.S.A. been closed due to the violence out on the streets. The Huntington Housing Authority asked the Guardian Angels to patrol Huntington Station.
