The use of medical imaging to depict and to help diagnose illness and injury as well as to guide therapeutic interventions has expanded greatly during the past two decades. Nowadays, imaging is ubiquitous in health care, and patients with a wide spectrum of afflictions benefit from imaging procedures. Many imaging modalities deploy ionizing radiation, and, as a consequence, the exposure of patients to radiation has increased as medical imaging has expanded.(1) Accordingly, such exposure is now often thought of as a potential harm to patients, bringing radiation safety under the broad umbrella of the patient safety field.
Concerns regarding the amount and effect of radiation exposure to CT cannot be ignored. CT scanning systems used in the early 1990s generated an average radiation dose of 40 to 60 mGy (4 to 6 rads) for head scans and 10 to 40 mGy (1 to 4 rads) for body scans. Radiation doses to patients with multidetector CT are 30% to 50% greater than with older single-slice CT scanners.(9) CT has received the greatest scrutiny because of its relatively high radiation dose per examination, far more than plain-film radiography. Although it accounts for about 17% of all medical imaging procedures, it produces approximately half of the population's medical radiation exposure, with nuclear medicine contributing around one-quarter of the collective dose to the population and fluoroscopy and conventional radiograph examinations making up the remainder.(10-12) Collectively, the growth in these studies, particularly CT, have resulted in a marked increase in the overall population exposure to ionizing radiation.
Children are particularly susceptible to radiation injury, and care should always be exercised to keep doses as low as possible while consistent with acquiring needed diagnostic information. A well-known practice mandate in radiology is ALARA: "as low as reasonably achievable." This concept is strongly endorsed by the Society for Pediatric Radiology, particularly in procedures and modalities that deliver higher radiation doses, such as CT and fluoroscopic examinations.(13) Reducing the radiation dose and its associated risks in children starts with performing CT in children only when properly indicated. To achieve this goal, adequate communication between the referring physician and radiologist is essential. Only with a complete clinical picture will the radiologist be able to make a well-considered decision regarding which imaging modality is the best choice to answer the clinical question. Moreover, this information will help the radiologist optimize the CT technique, reducing the risk of failed and repeated examinations.
Moreover, communicating the risks associated with medical radiation promotes patient autonomy. Although the risk to any individual patient from diagnostic radiology examinations might well be very low, it is not nil. Based on legal and bioethical principles that pertain to informed consent, it is not sufficient for physicians simply to weigh the risks and benefits of a radiologic examination. Instead, the patient needs to be informed. Given the complexity of the information and its long-time horizon (some risks are theoretical and may play out over decades), research needs to be done to help clinicians find better ways to convey the information so that it promotes informed patient choice.
In an era in which inappropriate use of radiographs, or undue doses of radiation, are correctly seen as significant problems for patient safety, radiologists must function as both gatekeepers and imaging experts. The former role requires that requested examinations are clinically appropriate and the potential benefits outweigh the risks. It also requires new channels of communication between ordering clinicians and radiologists. The latter is necessary to ensure that recommendations for alternative imaging modalities lacking ionizing radiation, or using the least possible radiation dose, are used when possible.

"Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
*anomia = Transgress the law.
"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."
NEXT IN SERIES: SPIRITUAL GIFTS AND SPEAKING IN TONGUES ARE NOT A SIGN THAT THE PERSON HAS THE INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT OR IS BORN-AGAIN!
SPIRITUAL GIFTS AND SPEAKING IN TONGUES ARE NOT A SIGN THAT THE PERSON HAS THE INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT OR IS BORN-AGAIN!
In the first epistle of John, the author is careful to expose the counterfeit Christians. It is obvious that there were many who claimed to be "born of God" who were not, so John made certain that we would be able to test ourselves (and others) to know if we are children of God. *How can we know who are the children of God and who are the children of the Devil?
*Are those who commit sin "children of the Devil"?
*Do those who are born of God commit sin?
Many "Christians" think they have come to KNOW God because they believe in Christ (whatever that means) or because they speak in tongues or perhaps because they were baptized. Do they really KNOW God?
*How can we know that we have come to know God?
*What about those who say they KNOW God and do not keep His commandments?
According to these tests given to us by the apostle John, there are many readers who are counterfeit Christians. However, if one accepts the Testimony of John, one cannot be deceived. John's language is simple and easily understood even by "little children".
"No one who abides in him sins; no one who sins has either seen him or known him.
Anyone who is not obeying the Ten Commandments (including the seventh day Sabbath) is bearing rotten fruit. Our Creator has never cancelled or changed the Sabbath Commandment. That evil work was done by men who were inspired by Satan. Read verse 19. Now is your opportunity to repent.
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
HECATE, the mother of witches, can be traced to the mystery religion of ancient Babylon. For the scriptures tell us that Babylon was the "Mother" of false religion and idolatry that has spread throughout the earth. Even today, witches dance and HOWL in unison to the goddess Diana, and they perform a ritual to evoke the spirits which they call the "Drawing Down of the Moon.".
In ancient paganism, The Mother Goddess was called many names including: Astarte, Ishtar, or Ashtoreth (Star) and "the queen of heaven". During the time of the Apostle Paul, in Ephesus and throughout Asia, HECATE was called DIANA and was worshiped as the Mother-Goddess of Virginity and Motherhood. People who find themselves howling like a dog can be certain that the spirit that is manifesting itself is NOT the Holy Spirit of God!
The tongue is unknown to the speaker and is a translatable human language; but "UNKNOWN" is a word added by translator's and has become a device of satan to lead a person into a passive mind that does not think. He gives them false tongues of gibberish that empties their minds. Sometimes that meaningless talk causes a state of unconsciousness. Then, he fills the void with an evil spirit to obey.
1Co_14:2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
1Co_14:14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
From the familiar evil spirit that is obeyed comes pride and doctrines of demons that are intended to destroy him and cause divisions in the body of Christ.
Act_2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
Act_2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Act_2:11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.
Act_19:6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
THE GIFT OF TONGUES IN AN ASSEMBLY ARE REAL LANGUAGES THAT MUST BE TRANSLATED.
1Co_14:13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue pray that he may interpret.
1Co_14:19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an [unknown] tongue.
1Co_14:27 If any man speak in an [unknown] tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
1Co 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
1Co 12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
1Co 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
It has been nearly 50 years since I first experienced spiritual gifts and spoke in tongues; therefore no one can say that I don't know what I am talking about. At first, the supernatural signs and wonders were a mixture of counterfeit deceptions and the genuine gifts from God --but, I was still a babe in Christ and lacked the discernment to tell the difference!
He gives them false tongues of gibberish that empties their minds. Sometimes that meaningless talk causes a state of unconsciousness. Then, he fills the void with an evil spirit to obey. The evil spirit confirmed its presence with feelings of warmth, blowing wind, false love, beautiful perfumes, and tingles. Even when I disobeyed a Commandment of God, it seemed right because "I was walking in the spirit." I was well on the way to the second death --but a certain man* asked me two questions that changed my life.
"Donna, do you really want to know the truth?"
"Donna, will you obey the truth --no matter what the cost?"
I said "Yes" to both of those questions with a sincere heart.
In my case, I had wandered around in the church system for decades; I had spiritual gifts --but was deceived about my spiritual condition. I know now, that I had never fully repented; was still unconverted; and that "signs and wonders" are not evidence of the indwelling Holy Spirit or the new creation. After that wonderful day, there was so much for me to learn --and unlearn!
7. PROVE ALL THINGS -- WHAT IS BLASPHEMY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT?
WHAT IS BLASPHEMY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT?
What does it mean to "blaspheme against the Holy Spirit"?
In the book of Numbers, there are two kinds of sin. Sins of ignorance which can be forgiven, and presumptuous sin which cannot be forgiven. Sins of ignorance can be forgiven because they do not involve rebellion. Presumptuous sin is always rebellion because it is sin committed with knowledge that the act is wrong.
Numbers 15:27 And if any soul sin through IGNORANCE, ....And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that SINNETH IGNORANTLY, .... and it shall be forgiven him.
Numbers 15:30 BUT the soul that doeth aught PRESUMPTUOUSLY, whether he be born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproacheth [blasphemeth] the Lord; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
15:31 Because he hath despised the word of the Lord, and hath broken his commandment, that soul shall be utterly cut off; his iniquity shall be upon him."
What if deliberately committing sin IS to blaspheme the Holy Spirit?
" Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have BLASPHEMED (1442) in that they have committed a trespass against me."
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and HATH DONE DESPITE unto the Spirit of grace?
In the Numbers passage above it is clear that to sin presumptuously (wilfully) is to blaspheme the Lord. In the Hebrews passage the willful sin is committed against the direct teaching of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Spirit of Grace) by those who are "sanctified". Is this willful sin blasphemy?
Notice that the phrase "hath done despite unto the Spirit of Grace" is directly compared to "despising Moses' Law (verse :27 above) In the OT those who sinned presumptuously despised Moses' Law and blasphemed the Lord.
KJ Version "...done despite unto the Spirit of Grace"
Only the one "born of God" - who has received the indwelling Spirit of God upon repentance - is able to blaspheme the Spirit who "writes the law on their hearts." If he does, there remains for such a one only "a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries."
19 Quench not the Spirit.
21 Prove** all things; hold fast that which is good.
22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.
According to Paul, we must question everything. It was that instruction of Paul that has saved me from falling into many a snare of satan. Those verses have also given me assurance that God approves of me questioning prophecies, doctrines and supernatural signs and wonders. Satan has an enticement for every Christian. Christians, who have a sincere heart, are especially vulnerable to supernatural deceptions when they have made a commitment to serve God. Satan knows that they will not be seduced into gross sins; so, he deceives them with false manifestations and "vain imaginations."
We must examine and prove every thought that comes into our mind. If it does not measure up to the standard of obedience --it must be rejected!
x-like, (ap) prove, prove, try.
NOTE; PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE THESE LESSONS WITH OTHERS.
8. SPIRITUAL GIFTS AND TONGUES FOLLOW THOSE WHO BELIEVE!
The purpose of spiritual gifts and tongues is to build up the church. Yes, the genuine spiritual gifts, ministries and tongues are for our day. The body of Christ has many members --and every member has been given a gift to serve the others as we prepare ourselves for the return of our Lord for a church without spot or wrinkle.
The signs FOLLOWED the Apostles testimony of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Like Jesus, they preached the gospel of the kingdom of God. In it, the people of God trust and obey Him.
NOTE: Comments in brackets are mine.
16 He that believeth [4100* -trusts. - eth denotes a continuous trust] and is baptized [cleansed] shall be saved [future]; but he that believeth not [G569** disobeys] shall be damned.
We must continuously trust God and obey Him to inherit eternal life.
"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
From G4102; to have faith (in, upon, or with respect to, a person or thing), that is, credit; by implication to entrust (especially one's spiritual well being to Christ): - believe (-r), commit (to trust), put in trust with.
From G571; to be unbelieving, that is, (transitively) disbelieve, or (by implication) disobey: - believe not.

July 20th, 2017 – People with disabilities and medical conditions may feel they are being discriminated against – involuntarily exposed to RF radiation from smart meters on their property or neighboring properties that may cause harm, risk, exacerbate an existing condition, or are being charged fees to opt-out of smart meters for medical reasons (illegal surcharge). Accommodations may be requested of the PUC or utility for qualifying disabilities or medical conditions. A discrimination complaint may be filed if accommodations aren't met.
Each state and local gov't, including a municipal utility (run by local gov't) is required to follow the Americans with Disabilities Act under Title II . Privately-owned utilities may be covered under Title III (see below). The ADA (more at http://www.ada.gov) is enforced by the US Dept of Justice (US DOJ). Privately-owned utilities that accepted federal funding for smart meter and smart grid projects also must follow certain additional federal discrimination laws, such as Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (as amended), as it applies to equal access to program benefits and services (equal access to essential utilities such as electricity and gas or water)**, with enforcement by the US Dept of Energy.
Editor's Note: Helpful supporting evidence for a discrimination complaint may soon be available from new genetic screening procedure.

This does not accommodate the EMF from the digital meter. We have been exposed to since July 2015 and we and our German Shepherds are being affected with Thyroid issues, migraines, insomnia, bloody noses, nausea, dizziness, heart palpitations, and just over all constant headache and we cannot get away from this anywhere and worse when I have had to go into town where they have the Smart Meters, I get even worse. We need to be able to have analog for any of us that have the digital too, not just the Smart Meter that is also very deadly, so is the high EMF I will attach what our meter reads, plus this is all throughout this house and all around the house as the overhead wires are right in front of the house too. Our neighbors all have the smart meter, so again, we cannot get away from it and it is costing us a fortune in health for us and our dogs and just getting worse. Sonja K Youdes We are in Jerome Mi.
Perhaps this is the "foot in the door" those with documented disabilities to get an analog meter and some of them, their power restored.


"I cannot recommend Stephen Barnes and the Hong Kong Visa Centre highly enough (in fact I have already been recommending him to people).
Before I discovered the Hong Kong Visa Centre, I went to 3 other immigration firms and asked them to take on my case, yet was refused each time. Stephen Barnes, on the other hand, felt I had a very good case. He listened carefully to my story and asked many thoughtful questions and unhesitatingly took on my application. Needless to say, 3 months later, my case was approved.
Throughout the process I found Stephen to be very consistent, always delivering documents to me on time. He was also consistently and readily available to answer my emails and phone calls and to allay my fears. I felt like I was being looked after by a great professional.
As well as being personable and available, he also made the process so easy for me by being extremely organized 'spoon-feeding' me documents to sign here and there but essentially writing and preparing the entire case himself based on what I shared with him as well as his own research into my industry. I could not imagine a smoother and more relaxed visa process.


We are Aurum; a Steampunk themed game set in the world of Sha'uru.
The game is a unique blend of parlor and boffer combat larp with costuming and styles lifted from the end of the Industrial revolution and character species borrowed from classic fantasy – elves, dwarves, and the like. Our events are typically located in New Jersey (NJ) and run monthly. We hope to see you at an event or convention!
Aurum LARP typically holds events once a month throughout the year. Aurum LARP also intends to be involved with the local convention scene and hopes to participate in several Double Exposure, Inc events.
This downloadable PDF contains our most current set of rules.
Creating your character is an easy process and full instructions can be found in the Rulebook. You choose a species which allots certain boons and in some cases, detriments. You then choose a Class and with 10 XP to start, you select the skills and abilities you want from the Class list or General list. You can submit a character through the New Character Form or bring this concept to the next event you attend and we can write up a character card for you. After your character is created, you will also be able to choose from some starting equipment and/or in-game currency.
Additionally, we recommend using the Backstory form to submit your character's history. The Plot team can use this information to make the world more realistic and personal for your character. Our goal is to make players feel like they and their characters have agency and the ability to actively change and shape the world and game, and this submission helps with that goal.
All new players go through New Player Training (NPT) after Opening Ceremonies. Even if you're a seasoned LARP veteran, we require everyone to attend this at least once to get acquainted with our rules, combat, and world. Further directions will be announced at Opening Ceremonies.
Aurum typically runs weekend long events from March to October* and single-day, indoor events the other months of the year. Because of this, it might be confusing to know what to pack and when. Weekend events typically require more packing and planning, so below is a breakdown of what we recommend be brought to all events, regardless of what month it is and then what should be brought to weekend events.
Check-In typically takes place with Logistics in the Pub House (main indoor play area during events). This is where you can pay for the event, get your character card, starting equipment, and/or get your NPC shift (if applicable). After this is done, you may want to get into your costuming and put on makeup for when the game starts.
Check-Out consists of returning your character sheet and any item or component cards your character has to Logistics. We will keep all of this together until your next attended event to make sure they are not lost, accidentally left home, destroyed, etc. If these items are not returned, we cannot update your card with any skills your character learned and we cannot guarantee the items/components will be available for your character.
For those with limited mobility, Quail Hill offers ramps to their Main Building. There is no stair access to NPC/Sleeping areas. Showers are in the basement of the main building, and there is a separate shower house on camp. There is a downstairs area in the main building that we do not intend to use often as there is no access beyond stairs.
For those with limited mobility, Camp Oakspring unfortunately has limited accessibility; entrance to the main building has a few steps and no ramp. There is a 1/2 bathroom downstairs, but the only year-round showers on the entire camp are located upstairs of the main building. NPC building and sleeping areas can be reached without going via stairs. The area is a bit hilly as well.
Camp Warren has an incredible amount of accessibility – ramps to every building and sleeping area, electricity, outlets, bathrooms and showers in every sleeping area as well as beds with mattresses. It has close proximity to everything on camp.
Please see here for detailed driving instructions.
For those with limited mobility, the Log Cabin has a ramp/wheelchair access through the back of the building. It is otherwise a single story building with a small balcony that is also only accessible by stairs. The balcony will not be a main play area, those players are allowed to go up there to relax, chat, etc. Bathrooms and kitchen are all on the main floor.
The Steampunk Farmer's Market is a small vendor affair located in New Freeedom, PA. Come support us and other local steampunk makers and designers while enjoying delicious food and great music!
We are committed to keeping your environment as safe and exciting as possible, to ensure that you obtain maximum enjoyment from our events.
Should you require accommodations relating to anything- personal hard limits, sleeping, sight, dietary, hearing, mental health - please don't hesitate to Contact Us or fill out our Hard Limits Form. We want your out of game experience to be as comfortable as possible so you can focus better on being in character and having fun. If a direct email is easier you can reach our team at [email protected].

Time's Person of the Year isn't Trump. It's basically the opposite of Trump.
WATCH: "The image you see partially on the cover is of a woman we talked to … who doesn't feel that she can come forward without threatening her livelihood." @TIME EIC @efelsenthal talks #TIMEPOY cover pic.twitter.com/q3bPbKNPbg
— TODAY (@TODAYshow) December 6, 2017
President Trump claimed in a tweet last month that Time magazine told him he would likely be named Person of the Year. But the magazine's selection turned out to be, essentially, the opposite of Trump: The women and men speaking out about sexual misconduct.
Time dubbed these people "silence breakers" on a cover unveiled Wednesday, and some attributed their silence breaking to the president.
"I have real doubts about whether we'd be going through this if Hillary Clinton had won, because I think that President Trump's election, in many ways, was a setback for women," said NBC's Megyn Kelly, the former Fox News host who last year accused former Fox chairman Roger Ailes of sexual harassment in a book. She added that "the overall message" of Trump's victory "was that we don't really matter."
Trump, of course, won the presidency last fall, despite having been accused of groping and kissing women without consent — and bragging about getting away with such behavior on the infamous "Access Hollywood" tape published by The Washington Post.
Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named "Man (Person) of the Year," like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!
Trump's position is that every woman who has publicly accused him of misconduct — more than a dozen, in all — is lying.
In addition, Trump has endorsed Senate candidate Roy Moore, who pursued teenage girls while in his 30s, according to multiple women. One woman, Leigh Corfman, told The Post that she was 14 when a 32-year-old Moore sexually touched her. Another woman, Beverly Young Nelson, said a news conference last month that she was 16 when a 30-year-old Moore locked her in his car and "attempted to force my head into his crotch."
"I thought he was going to rape me," Nelson said.
Moore denies the allegations. Trump has not said that he believes Moore but nevertheless contends that Moore's election would be better than a win by Democrat Doug Jones.
"We don't want to have a liberal Democrat in Alabama, believe me," Trump said on Tuesday.
The president has reserved his condemnation of accused harassers and assaulters for those he views as political foils — Democratic Sen. Al Franken, journalist Matt Lauer and Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, for example.
With its Person of the Year choice, Time recognized "silence breakers," whom the president, it seems, would have preferred keep quiet.

FLAGSTAFF – Sunlight shoots through the window of a Flagstaff studio, casting a spotlight on Gregory Hill – specifically on his hands. They're burned and worn from carving toy tops.
Hill, who is part-Hopi and part-Quechan, often works on his trade 19 hours a day to keep up with demand for his tops.
"A top is one of the few toys that has the same method of play around the world," Hill said. "All I need to do is spin the top to draw people in."
The tops started in 2008 as a project for his 8-year-old daughter. He now makes an average of 50 tops a month for his business, Hilltops, and he sells them for $30 to $250 a piece.
He said he wasn't prepared when crafting the tops turned into a booming business. He lacked access to resources, struggled with confidence and found it difficult to market his product.
Many Native American entrepreneurs face similar challenges.
Native American-owned businesses made up 3 percent of minority-owned businesses in the United States, according to Census Bureau numbers from 2012. That's less than 300,000 Native American businesses of the 27.9 million small businesses in the U.S. (Native Americans made up about 2 percent of the total population in 2013, according to the Census.)
The population lags behind in business ownership because of numerous factors, including lack of education, cultural obstacles and a high poverty rate, said Adrian Manygoats, an incubator coordinator at the Native American Business Incubator Network.
The Flagstaff-based network wants to increase the number of Native American-owned businesses through social entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurial ventures are businesses that don't primarily focus on turning a profit, but that give to the community.
"We're in a time now where businesses are not just focused on making money, but they're realizing the importance in giving back to the communities they're from as well a the cultures they're a part of," Manygoats said.
How the network works
The incubator opened in 2013 and has launched businesses such as Shash Diné Eco Retreat, a Navajo-owned bed and breakfast near Page. The owners wanted to give guests an authentic and unique Navajo experience.
The network helped the business with marketing, branding, business counseling and graphic design. Within three weeks of launching the shashdine.com website, the bed and breakfast was booked for the entire tourist season, Manygoats said.
The incubator has a unique understanding of the Native American communities across the Southwest, according to its website. And the employees work to overcome the red tape often found in those communities.
"There are huge cultural ties to the work that is produced here," Manygoats said.
The network has worked with businesses that range from food production and construction to film production and recycling.
Challenges facing Native American entrepreneurs
Manygoats said that keeping up with Native American tradition and being a successful entrepreneur in the modern world is somewhat of a balancing act: "There's a challenge of walking in two worlds."
"You want to stay true to who you are, and you want to really continue to value those cultural things you grew up with," she said. "But when you leave the reservation, you don't have access to that."
After leaving the reservation, it's easy to become disconnected with your community and community traditions, Manygoats said. In tribal cultures, it's important to go home and spend time with family often.
Manygoats' main responsibility at the incubator is to help entrepreneurs like Hill get the exposure and training they need to succeed in the entrepreneurial world.
Some Native American entrepreneurs struggle with confidence, a key trait for successful business owners, Hill said.
"It's difficult for Native Americans to start a business because we're trained to be noble, humble and quiet," he said. He added that he would have benefited from the incubator when he launched his business.
His advice for making it in the business world: Overcome the idea that you have to be quiet.
"I'm making toys. I'm creating entertainment. I'm making joy," Hill said.

Gregory Hill and his identical twin brother, Jonah Hill, are both artists. After leaving the reservation, the brothers carried on family traditions by working with their hands.
Jonah Hill makes jewelry out of sterling silver, copper, brass and tufa stone, a volcanic rock.
Jonah owns a jewelry business called Loma'Yoo'Si Designs, which means "bringing beauty" in the Hopi language. Bringing beauty to others through his jewelry is his purpose, he said.
"It's a lot more empowering for Native people to do what they love and make money, but also still stay in touch with their community," Jonah said.
Tourists, locals and river guides make up Jonah Hill's customer base. He said he's grateful that his own community supports him and his work.
The Hill brothers said they haven't struggled with community support – making jewelry and carving wood is a common trade in their culture.
Labor official hears Native American challenges
But some Native American entrepreneurs have faced difficulties with community support.
Jerome Tsosie said his biggest obstacle is getting his own community on board with his business and the services he offers. Tsosie is the president of Native Innovation Inc., a tech startup that provides tech solutions for Native Americans on and off the reservation.
"Having the buy-in from your own people is tough," Tsosie said. "People on the reservation have been treated badly for so long that they expect it."
When settlers expanded territory in the United States and moved Native American tribes to reservations, it resulted in a loss of opportunities for wealth and success among tribes, according to a 2014 study on Native American small business ownership published in the Research in Business and Economics Journal.
The government, other vendors and their own people have treated Native Americans poorly for decades, Tsosie said. Accepting help, especially from other Native Americans, is hard, he said.
Tsosie has to combat that broken relationship within the community on a regular basis through his work, he said.
"I'm picking up the pieces and trying to mend it," said Tsosie, who is based in Flagstaff.
"My work helps to keep that little kid alive and strong and reawaken that inner child," said Gregory Hill, who makes about 50 tops a month. (Photo: Lynnie Nguyen/Cronkite News)
Native Americans are more familiar with non-Native businesses offering to help, Tsosie said.
Tribal leaders tend to support big non-Native businesses because it is less risky, and there's more money involved, Manygoats said. Big businesses such as casinos tend to bring in more money than small businesses.
Many Native American entrepreneurs face difficulties finding capital to start their businesses, and it's rare to find investors in "communities where most of the population live below the poverty line," according to the network's website.
But fostering Native American entrepreneurship may reduce the poverty rate among the population, according to the 2014 study.
Census data indicated the poverty rate for Native Americans on reservations was 39 percent, while poverty rates for Native Americans off the reservation was at 26 percent. Those are the highest rates of poverty for all ethnicities.
Tools could help increasing diversity in workplace
The Native American Incubator Network wants to change those statistics by helping small businesses and local entrepreneurs find a voice, Manygoats said.
"Although contracting smaller businesses is a little more risky, it is much more valuable," she said. "Native entrepreneurs are more versed in the community, and they know what the community needs."
Tsosie grew up on the Navajo reservation in Rock Point. He's seen the struggles on the reservation and said this enables him to help his community better through his business.
"It definitely gives me more purpose," Tsosie said. "We're helping schools by providing services that they would otherwise have to pay an arm and a leg for."
His company provides tools to help Native Americans communicate. And he scored a win with a major company in July.
After emailing Google every other day for three years, Tsosie said he and his business partner, Kialo Winters, convinced Google to add the Navajo keyboard to Google Docs.
"You can now tweet in Navajo!" he said.

Foxconn steers clear of Trump's $30 billion investment claim
By SCOTT BAUER Associated Press
Foxconn Technology Group is not saying whether it plans to invest $30 billion in the United States, as President Donald Trump claimed the company's leader told him "off the record."
Trump announced to a group of small-business leaders at the White House on Tuesday that Foxconn CEO Terry Gou told him privately that the Taiwanese electronics manufacturer could invest as much as $30 billion in the U.S. The company signed a deal with Wisconsin last week to build a $10 billion display panel manufacturing plant and Trump did not specify where the additional spending would be.
Foxconn reiterated in a statement Wednesday that the Wisconsin plant "will be the first of a series of facilities we will be building in several states." It did not address Trump's statement about the total investment amount or Trump's claims that Gou told it to him in confidence.
"We have not yet announced our investment plans for other sites," Foxconn said in the statement. "We will provide an update as soon as we have finalized those plans."
The company may be looking at a separate Wisconsin site in Dane County, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Wednesday , citing multiple sources it did not identify. The paper said no offers have been exchanged and there were no guarantees any would be, but there could be developments in the next two months.
It wasn't clear what kind of facility the second site would be.
House Speaker Paul Ryan said in an interview with WITI-TV that the company would expand in Wisconsin, to "tap into our intellectual talent in Madison and Milwaukee."
"What we are getting from Foxconn is that they are committing to Wisconsin," Ryan said. "We do anticipate that there's going to be more than just this one location in the Racine-Kenosha area."
Gou previously said that Foxconn was considering locating in seven states before Trump announced last week that a massive liquid crystal display monitors plant would be going to Wisconsin. Other states that Foxconn said it was looking at were Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Texas.
Foxconn is the world's largest contract maker of electronics, with factories across mainland China. It's best known for making iPhones and other Apple devices but its long list of customers includes Sony Corp., Dell Inc. and BlackBerry Ltd.
The new plant in Wisconsin, which is scheduled to open in 2020 with 3,000 employees, will construct liquid crystal display monitors used in televisions and computers. It would bring Foxconn closer to its biggest market and be the first LCD monitor factory located outside of Asia.
The Wisconsin Legislature is considering a $3 billion incentive package that must be passed by the end of September as part of the deal with Foxconn. A public hearing on the proposal was scheduled for Thursday, just six days after a draft of the plan was released and eight days after news of the state's deal with Foxconn broke.
Republicans who control the Legislature are split on how quickly to pass the bill, with state Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald saying there are too many unanswered questions about the tax breaks that must be addressed before a vote. Some Democrats and others have questioned whether the incentives are too much, while also raising concerns about the proposed waiving of state environmental permit requirements and other regulations to speed up construction.
U.S. Rep. Mark Pocan, a Democratic congressman who represents a swath of south-central Wisconsin that includes Madison, questioned during a news conference Wednesday how many jobs will actually materialize and how much those workers will really be paid. He added that he's worried Foxconn might abandon its plans if Trump fails to follow through on his proposal to raise import tariffs.
"We've got to be very real about what this actually means for Wisconsin taxpayers," Pocan said.
Ryan, speaking at an employee town hall in his southeastern Wisconsin congressional district, called the deal a "game-changer" that "is a generation's worth of economic development." Ryan said he pitched federal job training benefits and tax credits that make the U.S. competitive to Foxconn officials who were deciding whether to locate here.
Ryan said he believed Wisconsin's central location, and an abundance of colleges, universities and technical colleges where future workers could receive the necessary training helped the state win the project. Foxconn is eyeing property in Ryan's district.
"It's a really good deal for Wisconsin," he said.

A review of The Ford Madox Ford Reader edited by Sondra Stang.
Sondra Stang, editor The Ford Madox Ford Reader.
Paraphrasing Hokusai, Ford Madox Ford (1873-1939) once called himself an "old man mad about writing." Ford's phrase is apt: during his lifetime in England, France, and the United States, he published eighty-one books, produced four hundred and nineteen periodical articles, and contributed poems, stories, introductions, and the like to fifty-seven other volumes. Among Ford's works are thirty-two novels, twelve volumes of poetry, seven memoirs, literary criticism, commentary, history, and biography. Writing was what Ford most wanted to do, and nothing—illness, poverty, discouragement, or personal calamity—kept him from it.

My husband and I have hired S&S two times now. The first was for a bathroom renovation. They layed custom river rock tile around the tub and shower areas. We also had them tear out carpet on our steps and replace it with bamboo flooring.
I was incredibly impressed with their communication. They contacted me every evening to update me on the project status and make sure I was happy with the progress and the quality of work. They finished on time and on budget and they always showed up when they said they would.
But probably one of the most impressive things was the fact they cleaned up after themselves each nite and when they finished the project. They swept the floors and took all of the trash with them. They were very respectful of our home, our time and our budget and we would definitely recommend them for any renovation projects.
Zach and the team from S&S Custom Building did a full kitchen remodel for me. The work was excellent and they even came in under budget. Zach was great to work with. We constantly changed our design plan during the project but Zach was very patient and made all the adjustments we asked for.
Right in the middle of the kitchen project a storm damaged our roof. Zach had a second crew on the roof right away. The damaged roof was fully stripped and replaced in a day, actually before lunch.
Zach was prompt and professional. He showed up when he said he would and did the work he promised, most days working well after business hours to stay on schedule.
My experience with S&S Custom Building was excellent and I regularly recommend them to friends, family and colleagues.

Note critice
"Arareori cercetat de către zeița Fortuna, Damian Ureche a fost mereu silit de soartă să dea vamă la răspântiile sale de nemangâiet. Trăind după reguli proprii, ca deplin senior al nevazutei sale țări, acest prinț al marelui puțin, dar și tainic solomonar al cuvântului, a murit și a înviat de atâtea ori încât nu-ți mai vine să crezi că nu mai este...

De fapt, nu mai era demult....Luptase cu încrâncenare să-și supraviețuiască, dar viața pământeană, pe care n-o mai prețuia, îl învinsese: răstignit pe crucea izolării de către confrați, poetul a revenit, totuși, mereu, pentru că specia aceasta umilă, care traiește la un colț al mesei celei mari a vieții, are un nevăzut contract cu veșnicia.

Acum, când la Masa Tăcerii s-a mai pus un scaun, iertările și părerile de rău nu-și mai au niciun rost, nicio putere.

Rămân doar durerea și liniștea.

Și ea, Poezia..."

Ilie Chelariu

"Damian Ureche face parte din acea rară familie de poeți la care viața se confundă cu poezia; talent nativ, Damian Ureche n-a uitat că poezia înseamnă cântec, dar și vocabulă rară, prin aceasta, el este cel mai poet dintre noi"

Anghel Dumbrăveanu

"Damian Ureche a semnat o foarte frumoasă pagină de poezie în literatura română a veacului XX, după cum a semnat frumoase pagini de gazetărie culturală în presa timpului, cucerindu-și un nume de scriitor prețuit și recunoscut.

L-am cunoscut și eu îndeaproape, firește, și  m-a cucerit prin harul lui poetic, prin ținuta lui intelectuală deosebită și susținută prin cercurile culturale timișorene, ca să dobândească și o reputație națională."

Dinu Săraru
