As you probably know, volunteering is a great way to help build stronger communities and at the same time assist the needy. But finding the adequate timeslot for this kind of event can be rather time consumung in its own right, and before you know it you don’t have nearly as long at your disposal to actually do some good. It hardly requires mention, if you volunteer as part of a larger effort with friends from work, it’s likely to be far more fun.
The obvious step, then, is for companies to take a cue from far-sighted firms like Adaptive Marketing LLC. As well as financial and shopping benefits programs such as Privacy Matters 1-2-3 made for the benefit of consumers, Adaptive Marketing organizes local volunteer activity to give its employees the time to help the community. Initiatives like these used to be rare, minor events - but this has come to be seen as just the beginning. Looking at a specific company, Adaptive Marketing has provided its employees with chances to get involved in everything from athletic shoe recycling efforts to local tree replanting weekends. Using central organization the initiatives became larger events, with specific dates, locations and times made public ahead of time to make time management easy for volunteers.
It’s essential to let volunteers support activities that fit their interests. At Adaptive Marketing, the company bringing you Privacy Matters 1-2-3, the workforce have the chance to choose from a diverse list of events. Employees may find themselves working with children, community projects in arts and culture, working on green initiatives etc. Often, the more they enjoy it, the more gets done, and as a result by providing so many programs Adaptive Marketing ensure that progress can be made in a great many areas. Most often a company sponsored charity project - getting involved with a homeless shelter, say, or assisting at a local school - is done either as a one-off event or on a regular schedule designed to achieve a bigger goal. There may be people who assert they haven’t the time, but even they can squeeze in a Saturday morning park clean-up.
Lending a helping hand has long been a tradition at many commercial enterprises. Adaptive Marketing like many other companies maintains volunteer initiatives to help others and to spread goodwill through its home community as a result of the efforts of its staff. The real bonus is, the benefits of volunteer work include feeling better about yourself - a positive feeling that improves the entire business.

The volunteers’ companionship can unite their community, and naturally it will aid their local needy. Of course, organizing your schedule so that you’re free to volunteer often actually wastes time that could really be put to so much better use elsewhere. Let’s not forget that volunteering can be more fun when your co-workers are getting involved right along with you.
Consequently companies like Adaptive Marketing LLC, a Connecticut-based firm that innovated shopping and financial benefits programs like Privacy Matters Identity that bring value to customers, have stepped up to become points of organization enabling their employees to find the time to help.
When you think of company sponsored charitable effort, you probably think of giving blood, maybe an annual donation drive, and no more, but that’s simply not the case in today’s world. The employees of Adaptive Marketing are frequently provided with the opportunity to get involved in a wide variety of community initiatives with greater and lesser time investments. For events like these, the locations, dates and times of the events were posted, making sure that staff knew what to expect, and how much time each event might realistically require. Making sure volunteers have their say in which initiatives the company sponsors is important. At Adaptive Marketing, the firm behind Privacy Matters Identity, staff are given the chance to choose from a wide variety of volunteer events. These may include working on green initiatives and more. In many cases, the more the volunteer enjoys it, the more gets done, and as a result by offering so many projects Adaptive Marketing can be certain that progress can be made in as many projects as possible. If companies encourage their staffers help at schools, it is commonly for a single event or a regular, perhaps weekly or monthly job. What this means is if you can only find a few hours to lend a hand with a Saturday morning park clean-up or the public library’s used-book sale, it’s still possible to contribute. You’ll find plenty of tales of organizations giving back to the people who live nearby. The good worksefforts of the employees at firms like Adaptive Marketing create precious good feeling throughout the community. Helping around your hometown leaves you feeling much better about yourself - just the sort of feeling to motivate your workforce both in their regular work and their volunteer activities, too.

As I imagine you know, volunteering can strengthen community bonds and in the same stride assist people in need. Organizing this kind of event can be a mite difficult, and before you know it you don’t have as long at your disposal to actually do some good. And volunteering is more fun when your co-workers are pitching in by your side! Consequently, firms have begun making themselves into points of organization encouraging their employees to work for the community through volunteer activities. One of the more significant examples is Adaptive Marketing LLC who also offer shopping programs including Passport to Fun to consumers. Initiatives like these used to be annual events — in today’s world, so much more can be achieved. The staff of Adaptive Marketing have been provided with the opportunity to get involved in community initiatives with greater and lesser time investments. By centralizing the organization individual initiatives became events, with specific times, locations and dates posted in advance to make time management easy for those signing up. Making sure volunteers have their say in which programs the company supports is also important. Employees of Adaptive Marketing choose from among many drives. You’ll find so much to be done, after all; working with children, assisting with environmental activities, or supporting local performance art among others. In many cases, the more the volunteer enjoys it, the more gets done, so through offering such a variety of programs Adaptive Marketing ensure that progress will be made in a great many areas.
Of course when businesses recommend their staff to consider volunteering at local schools, it tends to be in support of a specific event or a regular job. Employees may well say — and honestly assume — that they have no time to give, though it would be rather surprising if they genuinely cannot set aside enough hours to lend a hand with an event taking up just a single day. You’ll find plenty of examples of organizations supporting the citizens of their hometown. Adaptive Marketing maintains volunteer programs in part to generate positive feeling within its home community by the activities of its members of staff. Volunteering to help others leaves you feeling like a better person — exactly what you need to motivate staffers in both their volunteer work and back behind their desks. Promoting the volunteer spirit among your employees is a process which creates its own reward.

As we watch the confirmation hearings of Judge Samuel Alito, Jr. for appointment to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, the subject of abortion, specifically Roe vs. Wade seems to have taken prominence. Listening to Judge Alito on television, I’ve decided that he will not necessarily support Roe vs. Wade if he is (and he surely will be) confirmed.
On the sad withdrawal of the President’s close friend and legal counsel, Harriet Miers (after her rude and disgusting treatment by congress) it was natural for the President to nominate a candidate that the Republican Party might show simple respect.
Harriet Miers’ nomination was too big a surprise to the Congress. She was not on “the list” of the thirty or so possible nominees. Congress wanted one of their own good ol’ boys or good ol’ girls. I think an apology should be put in the Congressional Record.
The Hearings
Judge Alito’s biography can be found at http://www.whitehouse.gov/infocus/judicialnominees/alito.html. He graduated from Yale (surprise, surprise) and was appointed by the President’s Father to the Third District.
During the Judge Alito hearings, members of Congress have stated that Americans have various opinions on civil rights, abortion, role of government, etc. This means that every appointee to the Supreme Court will not agree on decisions made by the Court. However, decisions must be made according to law (the Constitution) and not on personal opinion alone.
Abortion
The Constitution does not mention abortion. If the Founding Fathers could have predicted today, perhaps the Bill of Rights would read like this:
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
The freedom of speech relates to political freedom and does not apply to profane, crude, and pornographic behavior (produced by audio or visual means).
Amendment II
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
The militia shall not be used in national situations except for short periods during grave emergency conditions
Amendment III
No soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
There shall be no snooping by electronic or other means without except under the conditions above.
Amendment V
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Amendment VI
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
On arrest, a person must be informed of the right to remain silent and the right to have an attorney present, court appointed or otherwise, during questioning.
Amendment VII
In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.
Amendment VIII
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
Abortion issues are not part of the Constitution and therefore are reserved to the states.
How would you amend the Bill of Rights? I’m sure my son who is an attorney would do a much better job, but you get the idea, don’t you?
Religious Factors on Abortion
Many believe from religious teaching that the body is the temple of God. See: http://www.unification.net/ws/theme020.htm.
One particular scripture that could be applied to abortion is that given in First Corinthians Chapter 3:
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
This scripture has been applied to smoking and other unhealthy practices that kill the body.
In relation to abortion, how does this scripture apply?
Does rape defile a human body (temple)?
Does incest defile a human body (temple)?
Does resisted seduction outside of marriage defile a human body (temple)? Is the “Day After Pill” a suitable response for the unmarried if any possible pregnancy is not wanted?
It seems to me that if woman’s body has been defiled by a rapist, seducer, family member, etc., it should be purified, removing as far as possible all traces of the encounter if that is the desire (usually with guidance) of the person defiled.
One member of Congress said that he performed abortions to save the mother’s life. That is accepted by some but not all antiabortionist.
Supreme Court
Is the pregnancy of a person in Madrid, Iowa really the concern of the Supreme Court?
Abortion is not part of the Constitution and is therefore part of state jurisdiction. If this is not true, then the Constitution should be amended.
The Constitution is a living document. When it is not modified to cover our modern world, the courts are just playing guessing games.
Most Americans don’t want the Constitution modified in the least degree. Why should they with the performance of Congress (which many consider to be a group of self-centered egotist that could care less about the American people).
I think that over the long run Congress does what most Americans want. When they screw up, the uproar drives them to fix things. ATTENTION CONGRESS: Right now, the Medicare Rx plan needs fixing.
At times the uproar is from a very small minority outside the mainstream of American thought. Sometimes Congress and the courts must listen to Joe Smoke instead of the voice of the American People to preserve Joe’s constitutional rights.
That doesn’t mean that some things don’t need to be changed by amendment to the Constitution.
