The Council Triennial in 1938 251 [ix] AN APPRECIATION OF HANNAH G. SOLOMON HANNAH G. Solomon was the foremost Jewish woman of this era. Devoted to the faith of her fathers and instinctively sympathetic in her understanding of human hearts and ideals, she rose to natural leadership in communal and national endeavor. The splendor of her vision is reflected in the numerous organizations which were created by her genius in our country and across the sea. Thus she became an inter- national figure. The Council of Jewish Women is her most distinguished achievement. It stands as her permanent service to the wel- fare of Jewish womanhood. She was appointed a member of The Women's Board of The World's Parliament of Religions, which was held in Chicago in connection with the Columbian Exposition of 1893. As chairman of her committee, she proceeded to organize The Jewish Women's Congress. At that time, Hannah Solomon had an inspiration which resulted in the founding of The National Council of Jewish Women. She indicated her lofty conception of the tenets of our faith when she chose Religion, Education and Philanthropy as the cornerstones for building the Council. Hannah Solomon's devotion to religion was reflected in her rare spiritual conception of life, which impelled her course and imbued her with zealous strength. She pioneered for [xi] woman's place in the modern Jewish world. While she cherished the old thought, she ever welcomed the new. She gave her best efforts to every educational movement which concerned intellectual advancement. Determined in her search for truth, she wrote and spoke to bring enlightened ideas within the reach of all women. Philanthropy was her watchword. Not only did she plead for humanity and justice, but she brought hope to the dis- couraged and comfort to the bereaved. She consecrated her life to service which was distinguished by kindliness and understanding. She possessed a profound intellect, a rare enthusiasm and a lovable personality. Hannah Solomon labored for the benefit of mankind without a thought of self. The Council of Jewish Women will ever hold her name in reverence. This great organization which she founded is guided by her spirit to achieve high ideals and support righteous causes. It has thus become a living memorial to the spiritual faith and the magnetic leadership of HANNAH G. SOLOMON. [xii] FOREWORD AND DEDICATION WHY DOES ONE WRITE an autobiography? Chiefly for one's children and grandchildren, and it is at the insistence of mine that I begin this chronicle. All grand- mothers have a tale to tell, for not only is the world of their youth full of charm and quaintnes's to succeeding generations, but there is ever a persistent desire on the part of one's young followers to have portrayed for them the life in which their forebears have participated. Then, too, grandchildren possess great faith in their grandmothers, whose wisdom and accomp- lishments are apt to loom large. On the other hand, have not grandmothers a peculiar insight into the potentialities of their grandchildren? It is the grandmother who often- times discovers the embryo of the genius that is to be. Her imagination gallops into space where float the colors of the rainbow ending in the pot of gold, and in her dreams she hears heavenly choirs intoning sweet songs of triumph and success. But, if fame or fortune really comes, it is the grand- mother who has learned that the most enduring gratification results not so much from actual attainment as from the work in which there was participation with fellow-men, or in the consecration to and consistent eff^ort toward a noble goal. It is this mature realization that a grandmother desires most yearningly to leave as her special message to those who follow her. Thus, as I near my eighty-fifth birthday, I find I am glad to review the paths I trod, both for my grandchildren and [ xiii ] for my children who have lived through so many of my ex- periences with me, sharing gladness or sorrow as they came, and the richness of each. I write, then, with a stil! firm pen, for Frank and Helen Solomon, my son and daughter-in-law, who are a tower of strength to me and whose home is as my own, and for Helen Levy, my beloved daughter, who has been at my side through all her life in perfect and indispen- sable companionship. To my five dear grandchildren do I dedicate this book . to Betty, Henry and Frank Solomon, and to Frances Hannah and Philip Angel and their small Philip and Henry, my two delightful great-grandsons. [xiv] PART I WARP AND WEFT "Seeking Wool and Flax" CHAPTER I ". UNTO A LAND THAT I WILL ." SHEW THEE . (Genesis xii:l) WHERE DOES A BIOGRAPHY BEGIN? Docs the life story of an individual have its origin in the distant past and is any of that past crystallized in a new-born soul? Do we start our pilgrimage conditioned by patterns already ingrained and will the failures and the successes of an earlier generation and ancient preferences and prejudices play their part? How far do fate and chance mold our behavior and our lives? Is memory to be trusted, or has time, in passing, so obliterated the poignancy of experiences which distressed us or enhanced our joy that we are unable to record them in true proportion? Do we remember clearly those moments when inspiration was born through contact with rich minds; those in which courage was instilled and new insight kindled? Time, in a measure, blots out the tragic and the sorrowful that darken our lives for a space leaving, nonetheless, an irrevocable im- press. How especially fortunate that memories of the pleasant recur and stand out in bold relief! In Chicago, where I have lived eighty-four years, I have known five generations: the pioneers, among whom were numbered the contemporaries of my grandparents as well as of my parents, Michael and Sarah Greenebaum. Then [3] followed my own generation, now overtaken by those of my children and grandchildren. My relatives and friends, my city and country, my heredity and the traditions of a foreign nationality and of the Jewish faith sum up the influences that shaped my early life. To the Jew, whether a voluntary or a forced immigrant, came the old call, "Get thee out of thy country . , . unto a land that I will shew thee." Many, of the pioneers' day, left Europe to escape religious persecution and to find freedom under a democratic form of government with a Bill of Rights as their shield; others departed to seek broader opportunities or to evade army service. All brought with them more than their bodily strength; they brought, in addition, talent and training and, oftentimes, wealth. My father, Michael Greenebaum, was the first member of his family to come to America, thus paving the way for all who later came from Eppelsheim, a small German village in the Rhine Palatinate, as well as for relatives from far and near.

  • “What's Important in My Life” the Personal Goals and Values Card Sorting Task for Individuals with Schizophrenia Theresa B
    “What’s Important in My Life” The Personal Goals and Values Card Sorting Task for Individuals with Schizophrenia Theresa B. Moyers and Steve Martino © 2006 Using Motivational Interviewing for clients with schizophrenia requires some adaptations of traditional methods, including the Personal Values Card Sorting Task. In our clinical work, we found that the original task described by Miller, C’de Baca, Matthews and Wilbourne (2001; casaa.unm.edu) was not useful for these clients because some of the values described on the cards were overly abstract (e.g., Autonomy, Mastery) and other issues of potential importance to these clients (e.g., Find medications that work for me, Stop hearing voices) were absent. Our modification of the Personal Goals and Values Card Sorting Task was originally developed as part of a small pilot study (Graeber et al., 2003) to investigate the impact of MI on the substance use of veterans with schizophrenia. We have significantly enlarged the current version and present it as a viable method for discussing important life goals and values with clients who struggle with schizophrenia. This tool is available for researchers and clinicians at no charge through the UNM CASAA website. Individuals wishing to use the cards can print them on business stock cards. Alternatively, they may be printed on labels and placed on index cards. They may not be sold, re-published or used for commercial purposes. The Card Sorting Task is relatively straightforward. Tell the client you will be using an exercise to help you figure out what is most important to him or her in life.

    1 All Love Show 2016 1 2 9AM The Beatles - It’s Only Love- Help! / INTRO : THE WORD (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Recorded in six takes on June 15, 1965. The first Beatles song to include a reference to getting “high” (“I get high when I see you go by”). The working title prior to lyrics being written was “That’s a Nice Hat.” George Martin and his Orchestra recorded the instrumental version of “It’s Only Love” using the original title. In 1972 Lennon called “It’s Only Love” “the one song I really hate of mine.” On U.S. album: Rubber Soul - Capitol LP 2 3 The Beatles - Love Me Do – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: John and Paul The Beatles’ first single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. Released October 5, 1962, it reached #17 on the British charts. Principally written by Paul McCartney in 1958 and 1959. Recorded with three different drummers: Pete Best (June 6, 1962, EMI audition), Ringo Starr (September 4, 1962), and Andy White (September 11, 1962 with Ringo playing tambourine). The 45 rpm single lists the songwriters as Lennon-McCartney. One of several Beatles songs Paul McCartney owns with Yoko Ono. Starting with the songs recorded for their debut album on February 11, 1963, Lennon and McCartney’s output was attached to their Northern Songs publishing company. Because their first single was released before John and Paul had contracted with a music publisher, EMI assigned it to their own, a company called Ardmore and Beechwood, which took the two songs “Love Me Do” and “P.S.

    Referencia bibliográfica: Guagliardo, K. (2012). Macho-Homos. Toward a Masculist Reframing of Male Sexuality. Tesis de Grado. Edith Cowan University. Recuperado de http://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses_hons/76 ISBN: - MACHO HOMOS Toward a Masculist Reframing of Male Homosexuality Masculinity has taken a number of forms through history, with the dominant ideology of a particular culture and era dictating to men how they should perform their gender in order to be considered valuable or virtuous (Spector Person, 2006). In western patriarchal systems, men portray themselves in a particular manner in order to meet cultural criteria of masculinity (Webb, 1998; Biddulph, 1995; Connell, 1995). Although masculinity as a concept has been critiqued by feminism and queer theory, Clarkson (2006), Payne (2007), De Visser & Smith (2007), and Eguchi (2011) have discovered, along with others in the Journal of Men’s Studies, that traditional ideas of masculinity continue to inform, influence and appeal to both heterosexual and homosexual men. At this point, it is useful to consider Judith Butler’s theory of gender performativity. Butler argues, ‘There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender; that identity is performatively constituted by the very “expressions” that are said to be its results’ (1990, p. 33). Butler asserts that there is no such thing as an inherent, concrete quality of ‘maleness’ within each male human being; that, rather, men perform maleness based on a variety of expressions. With that in mind, what constitutes hegemonic masculinity? What makes a man culturally masculine? Theorists have argued that signifiers of masculinity include: ‘dress, physical stance and movement, vocabulary and speech’ (Webb, 1998, p.
