  • From Ginger Kathrens on the subject:

    Great news! The Cloud Foundation, and others have succeeded in preventing the zeroing out of the Jakes Wash Herd of wild horses in the Pancake Complex of eastrn Nevada. BLM has also agreed to take gelding off the table! 200 stallions were to be captured, castrated and turned back onto the range.  Read all about it here. I hope this signals a turnaround for the mustangs in 2012. Keep the faith, Happy Holidays and Happy Trails!

  • On Friday, November 11, 2011, Faical Chebbi illegally abducted Eslam Chebbi (5) and Zainab Chebbi (2) to his birth country - Tunisia. Despite having been naturalized as an American, Faical grew weary of failed attempts to survive in the U.S. and, in a last attempt to harm his now ex-wife, he abducted their two small children, and returned to Tunisia.

    Having full legal and physical custody by mutual consent, Edeanna Chebbi had registered all legal custody documents and orders regarding the children with the Tunisian Embassy in Washington, DC. She was given direct assurances from the embassy that the children could not be issued Tunisian passports given this documentation.

    Despite this, the embassy issued Tunisian birth certificates and passports in both children's names, and without knowledge or consent of their mother. This act contributed to the kidnapping of Eslam and Zainab.

  • To stop the partisan stupidity that is going on in Washington DC

  • As we head for a changing of the guard in Washington DC, the Obama government will take over a country facing its toughest economic challenge since the Great Depression. Nonprofit staff and boards are worried as an impending financing challenge awaits the nonprofit sector in the coming year as donations, foundation grants and state funding are cut. Despite this perilous situation and despite having a huge role in the economy, the nonprofit sector is largely missing from the public discourse on the economic crisis. Nonprofit professionals and board members need to ask why we are not part of the conversation and how we ensure that our interests are going to be heard in public policy decisions that affect the sector.

    Why the Nonprofit Sector Must Speak Up
