  • Delivering Outcomes for Communities Training Participant Agenda | Sessions 1, 2 and 3 May-June, 2016
    DELIVERING OUTCOMES FOR COMMUNITIES TRAINING PARTICIPANT AGENDA | SESSIONS 1, 2 AND 3 MAY-JUNE, 2016 BACKGROUND President Obama has prioritized improving the way the federal government partners with citizens and local leaders. In 2009, the Administration issued guidance for federal agencies to develop a new and customized approach to working with communities. Today, federal experts increasingly work hand-in-hand with residents and community leaders to create solutions that are responsive to local ideas and concerns. Agencies across the federal government are better coordinated and interact with local government, non-profits, business and other stakeholders as one partner. This work now reaches over 1,800 rural, tribal and urban communities tackling challenges as varied as climate change to entrenched poverty. Using data to inform solutions and evaluate progress, these partnerships have led to new federal staffing models, greater focus and flexibility in federal grant-making and technical assistance—among other innovations—to promote collaboration across agencies and between the federal government and communities. These efforts are having real impact in communities. Mayor Swearengin briefed the White House Press Corps about the impact of this work in Fresno (one of the featured case studies at our training), and in April 2016 NPR’s Morning Edition explored progress made through federal partnerships with communities to help coal-mining communities in Southeastern Kentucky (a Promise Zone and one of the featured panels at this training). When asked why people continue to feel like the government isn’t doing anything for them, Promise Zone Partner Chris Green of Berea College responded, “I think it's because the government is not overt about it.

Morial in September 1993 to discuss the issues component of his campaign for mayor, ideas poured out of him for an hour and a half, and I took copious notes. “We need an Inspector General,” he said, “and we need Charter Revision”—the two ideas linked from this first campaign convening.

I am a conservative person who has supported your leadership in public life and felt you were a personal friend, along grateful they had no Mitch Landrieu in power or these magnificent structures would not exist for the world to see today. with your family. With that said, I must express my overwhelming disappointment in your public statement of criticism, Fair and Healthy “FREEDOM” is the answer to why our country is so great! identifying only myself as a deep-pocketed leader and high roller who failed to support your plan. Being the only one named in your interview is wrong. Your statements were reported on NOLA.com on Thursday, April 27, and in the MITCH, I hope you can recall the time I visited with you in the privacy of your office and encouraged you to allow me Times Picayune on Friday, April 28. and other willing citizens to pay for large bronze plaques that would be placed in front of each of these monuments explaining the wrongs of slavery and discrimination. I attempted to persuade you to use these three artistic monuments Yes, I am a member of the Monumental Task Committee, since I believe firmly that the three remaining magnificent in new ways that would educate our citizens and visitors in ways that would show how far we have evolved as a works of art should remain in their current location.

  • Jewish Influence: an Introduction
    NOTE: "The list below is available on the internet. A random sampling of the names were found to be generally accurate. Since the source is the internet, the reader is advised to also authenticate. The link is: http://www.subvertednation.net/jew-lists/ The below link from the Jewish Virtual Library contains many of the names identified on pages 36 – 38. http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/US- Israel/obamajews.html Jewish Influence: An Introduction We have been accused of having “Jew on the brain”; of being negatively obsessed with the Jews, and of being “anti-Semitic.” Yet Jewish influence over the affairs of the world are undeniably powerful, far out of proportion to their numbers. Their role in shaping public opinion through their media interests, and their mastering of the world of business and trade is pivotal to the world economy. As a group they are the most successful in terms of income and wealth and they have reached the highest echelons or the pinnacle of power in every field. Jews are the masters of Hollywood, they are the masters of all forms of media, radio, and television. They are masters of trade and commerce and banking, medicine, and law. The following lists we believe prove this reality. Jewish Lists The lists below are available on the internet. A spot check of several of the names found it to be generally accurate, though we cannot vouch for ALL of the names, and some titles may be out of date. The second list claims to be updated in 2012. They are followed by quotes on Jewish control.
