Tom Cruise starred in the 80's movie Risky Business about a young man taking advantage of the freedom he found when his parents went away on a trip. He found that running around with shady characters leads to a world of troubles.
While we can't slide across the floor in our Ray Bans and rock out, there is still a lesson to learn from the film. In business you must try to manage the risks you face.
First you must ask yourself what is your risk appetite? You deal with risks in your everyday life. Do you like to sky-dive and go whitewater kayaking or are you comfortable with driving your Volvo to the park and watching the birds? Some people are willing to take big risks for the thrill of the moment or for the big rewards while others enjoy the comfort of stability and safety.
• Avoidance: Eliminating the risk by either never entering into the activity or ending your participation in the activity.
• Reduction: Mitigate the risk in the activity or by optimizing the activity through controls and improved processes.
• Sharing: Transfer all or part of the risk to others through joint participation in the business or through insurance.
• Retention: Acceptance of the residual risks.
Today, Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) seems to be the topic du jour of most business executives and board rooms. ERM is many things. It is the methods and processes used by organizations to manage risks and seize opportunities related to the achievement of their objectives. It provides a framework for the managing risk. The International Organization for Standardization developed ISO 31000 in 2009 – Principles and Guidelines on Implementation and ISO 31010 – Risk Management – Risk Assessment Techniques to assist organizations by providing guidelines on risk management.
So, how do you get started? For most organizations the starting point is the Risk Assessment. This can be a daunting task but it is critical in understanding the risks to your business and how to deal with them. By systematically collecting the risks that threaten all of the areas of the business management can evaluate them, decide how to deal with them, and finally prioritize mitigation efforts. All businesses face limited resources, whether it is time, staff, or money. The risk assessment process will help management to spend these limited resources in the most effective manner.
Once all risks are identified, you will need to evaluate and rate them. This is generally completed with some numeric rating system. I prefer a scale of 1-10 rather than a High-Medium-Low type of scale to provide a more granular rating that will allow a greater ranking.
You also need to think about how it should be rated. Most experts will tell you that it must include both a rating for likelihood and impact. These are very different ratings. Think about assessing the risk of someone hacking into your network. What is the likelihood? You have a firewall, your network was implemented by knowledgeable professionals, and it is tested regularly for vulnerabilities. Your likelihood of an attack is fairly low. But what if someone did break into your network? What if they accessed your customer records, your bank account information, or the plans for your next product? The impact to your company would be very high. You could lose the confidence of your customers, your bank account could be drained, and the new product you planned could be undermined so that it loses all of its competitive advantage.
If you use both of these ratings you can then develop some type of composite rating. ISO 31010 defines the Composite Risk Index as being the product of the impact of the risk times the probability of its occurrence. This index could be modified to include other rating such as reputational risks, legal risks, etc. You could also weight each of the risk ratings to take into account how important certain risks areas are. My suggestion would be to start with the minimum: Impact and Likelihood.
A great way to document the risk assessment is through a matrix. Each row would represent a different risk with the columns representing the ratings and justification or explanation of the ratings. The matrix could then be filtered in the order of the composite rating which would allow for the prioritization of your efforts.
Tom Cruise's character takes a high-risk move and turns his parents' house into a brothel to pay to repair his father's Porsche (he wrecked it even though he wasn't supposed to touch it). He needed a lot of money in a short amount of time so he was willing to take on the risk. If he had assessed all the risks involved in the venture he may have concluded that turning the house into a brothel would increase the likelihood of someone burgling the house (which they did). As typical in Hollywood, all ended well with him getting everything being returned before his parents got home, he got the girl, and was accepted at Princeton. In real life, things don't always end up the way you want. If you want to avoid bad things happening then you have to plan for them and put the controls and processes in place to avoid problems.

IT TOOK ALICE 40 YEARS TO MAKE A SOLO ALBUM
LA WEEKLY REVIEW
"1, 2, 3, 4," Alice Bag chants as she sways to the beat of the metronome. She's in the control room of a secluded recording studio in Echo Park, preparing to add vocals to a track that is close to her heart.
"No te despediste," she sings, melodically and somberly, on "Inesperado Adios," a Spanish song inspired by a student she taught when she lived in Arizona two years ago.
It's a chilly October night and the L.A. punk veteran is recovering from a cold. It adds a hoarseness to her voice that she wasn't expecting to bring to her debut solo album, Alice Bag, an album that, in a way, has been more than 40 years in the making.
Since the mid-1970s, Bag has been in countless bands, including Cholita, Castration Squad and The She*Riffs. Most famously, the singer and musician fronted The Bags, the legendary first-wave L.A. punk band. As if it was a marriage, Alice has kept the surname since.
Bag is quick to dismiss any misconceptions people might have about why she is releasing her first solo record now instead of earlier in her life. "It wasn't that I didn't think I was capable of writing the music on my own or getting people to play with me," she says on a warm June day, sipping an iced coffee at a Highland Park cafe. "I've always been fond of having a situation where you have brothers and sisters and you work cooperatively toward a common goal."
She's an icon in the punk world of Los Angeles and beyond. Ask any local punk musician or fan about her, and they're likely to share a story about how she has influenced them artistically, or how kind she was in person when they met her.
After living her whole life in L.A., Bag moved to Arizona in the mid-2000s to work as a teacher, which is where the events that inspired the song "Inesperado Adios" transpired. The mother of one of her "A" students confided in Bag that her husband, who was undocumented, suddenly disappeared one day. He had left for work, like any other morning, except this day he never came back. As they searched for him and tried to get him out of a detention center, the punk singer served as translator, helping the family navigate through foreign documents and phone calls.
The song, whose title roughly translates to "Unexpected Goodbye," came out of the experience Bag witnessed firsthand — how detaining immigrants affects the whole family unit, not just the person being deported.
Other songs on Alice Bag address political and social issues, especially violence against women, a major theme of Bag's acclaimed 2011 memoir, Violence Girl, From East L.A. Rage to Hollywood Stage — A Chicana Punk Story. "No Means No" addresses date rape; "He's So Sorry" is a song about being in an abusive relationship; and "Suburban Home" explores the fear of having your spouse cheat on you when you're in a long-distance relationship.

Of "No Means No," Bag says, "Sometimes we're socialized to think, well y'know, you're making an investment in a girl when you take her out to dinner and so she owes you something. I think they feel — not all men obviously — some guys feel, I'm going to take something back for the investment."
Through her music, Bag hopes to send a message to survivors of abuse, and to children who remain powerless in situations where one parent is abusing the other — an experience she detailed firsthand inViolence Girl, recounting how her father beat her mother.
"It's a plea, please get out of that situation," Bag says urgently. "Don't think that you're going to change this person or that they're going to change all by themselves."
Another way Bag reaches out to women, particularly young women, is through her volunteer work as a member of Chicas Rockeras South East Los Angeles, a summer camp that empowers girls through music education. It's a program that Bag wishes she'd had when she was growing up because she always felt her family thought she was "kind of weird."
Alice Bag's self-titled album is the culmination of a 40-year career.
She keeps in touch with that family, but they remain distant. She's closer to her musician family because when she visits her relatives, they say "little funny remarks about what you do and they're humorous to everybody else, but they're kind of subtle putdowns because you're living in a way that's not traditional."
But Chicas Rockeras is also something she hopes older women experience, "because a lot of times people forget that you can still be creative in a completely different way, especially once you reach a certain age and you're not raising kids," she says.
Alice Bag was originally going to be self-released, after the singer received enough funding to record and master the album via supporters on Kickstarter. But one day Sharif Dumani, who plays guitar on her record and is also in local L.A. band Sex Stains, told her she should check out Don Giovanni Records and suggested she reach out to Joe Steinhardt, the founder of the company, about a possible record deal.
"I wrote to him fully expecting not to hear back and then he sent me a picture of his wife reading Violence Girl and I was like, Oh my God!," says Bag, still surprised months later by Steinhardt's response.
It didn't take much to get Steinhardt on board. "He was so, so open to everything, just whatever I wanted to do, he was like, 'Let's do it!'"
For Bag, this is exactly the album she's always wanted to make, and it came together so smoothly that the process, for her, felt almost magical. "It's just been brewing for a long, long time and everything just seemed to fall into place so easily. All I had to do was tap it with my finger and everything worked. It was pretty effortless."
But making music and choosing to pursue an artistic life hasn't always been effortless for Bag, and perhaps that is what still drives her to push against the grain and keep being creative.
She recalls having a moment early in her career when she decided that she was going to go back to school and "stop this silly 'playing music' thing." At the time, her friends were heavily into drugs and living life in an unhealthy way. She knew she needed to get away from that, so she told herself she would do something practical — move back home, go to school and become an attorney.
Her new plan to leave her punk life behind lasted only a month before her former roommate gave her a ring and asked, "Hey, my bass player can't make it. Can you play bass?" Bag soon started playing gig after gig until she was back in that world without planning to be. The life of an attorney wasn't for her.
"I just had to accept that it was part of who I am and I'm never going to be able to give it up, even though at times you feel like, if I was just able to give this up, I could focus on this other thing much more. It's not like that. It absolutely feeds my soul," Bag says, clutching her cup of coffee.
"I can't live without music."

2021 California ProKart Challenge Battles Continued at Willow Springs
The California ProKart Challenge hosted the penultimate round of the 2021 season on the September 11-12 weekend at the Willow Springs International Raceway. The Rosamond, California facility has been the site of many Superkarts! USA regional program events in the past, including both the famed Streets of Willow course and the karting circuit. The two-day event for Round Five of the 2021 championship program was held on the nine-turn, 6/10-mile kart track in the counter-clockwise direction.
Blake Nash put himself back into the championship chase with his first victory in the Nash Motorsportz KA100 Senior class since the season opener. His performance on the weekend was a near perfect two days that began with a blitzing fast lap in qualifying. Nash laid down a 45.855-second lap to clear the 28-driver field by three tenths of a second. The following day, Nash led all 14 laps in the Prefinal to a 1.5-second advantage. The 24-lap Final began with Oliver Calvo getting the jump on Nash, leading the opening eight laps. Nash took over the position on lap nine and showed the way the remainder of the race for the victory. Calvo finished second, helping his efforts toward the series championship. Aiden Kempf joined them on the podium in third with Colby Dubato and Ayden Aquino completing the top-five. Championship leader Dante Yu was seventh, setting up for an exciting final round.
Penultimate Event for 2021 California ProKart Challenge Next Weekend
The California ProKart Challenge is set to resume the 2021 season over the September 11-12 weekend with a trip to the Willow Springs International Raceway. The Rosamond, California facility is set to host Round Five of the six-round championship program for the Superkarts! USA regional series. The 6/10-mile, nine-turn course will be run in the counter-clockwise direction, helping to further decide those who will remain in the championship chase with over $70,000 in purses and prizes to be handed out by the end of the season.
Multi-time series champion Billy Musgrave resumed his position at the top of the Pro Shifter point standings, thanks to his third win on the season at Santa Maria. Musgrave leads Vincente Salas by 68 points, with Jacob Yesnick a close third. KA100 Senior has Round Two winner Dante Yu still leading the championship chase thanks to three podiums in four rounds. Round One winner Blake Nash sits second, behind by just 50 points – with former series champion Oliver Calvo there in third.
EKN Trackside: 2021 SKUSA Pro Tour SummerNationals – Sunday Report

Sunday was the sixth and final round to the 2021 Superkarts! USA Pro Tour with the 11th running of the SummerNationals hosting the series finale. What began in March in New Orleans, was completed at the New Castle Motorsports Park with the sixth and final round of this year's championship program. The New Castle, Indiana facility provided an amazing day for racing, with all nine categories deciding just who would end up with the coveted SKUSA #1 plate in their respective classes. History was made throughout the day, including the second ever female series champion, the first three-time shifterkart headline title winner, and the first driver to record six career championships at the SKUSA Pro Tour.
The title chase in the Rolison Performance Group X30 Senior division was done to just two drivers. Branyon Tiner (RPG / Kosmic) held a slight advantage over Hannah Greenemeier (RPG / Kosmic) heading into the final round. Greenemeier nearly grabbed the 10 bonus points for fast time in qualifying but was edged out by Saturday winner Nate Cicero (RPG / Kosmic). He along with Greenemeier and Ryan Norberg (RPG / Kosmic) decided the Prefinal with four-time champ Norberg earning the win. Tiner was making his way forward inside the top-10 when contact put him off the track and eventually out of the race. That set up for a scenario for the championship to be in the hands of Greenemeier depending on the results of the main event. Norberg was able to get away from the field at the start of the Final as Cicero was shuffled off in the opening corners and then collected in a multiple kart pileup in turn three, ending his day. Norberg set his ride on cruise control, running consistent times over the 16-lap race to drive away to a 4.680-second advantage. Greenemeier was in the fight for a podium position behind Norberg. She along with Pauly Massimino (RPM / Kosmic), Braden Eves (MPG / WPK) and Thomas Annunziata (MDR / Tony Kart) were in the fight. Annunziata was able to edge out Massimino and Hannah at the line for the runner-up spot. Massimino was given a pushback bumper penalty, thus dropping him to fifth and Thomas Nepveu to fourth in his Trinity Karting Group / Kart Republic debut weekend. And it also promoted Greenemeier to the third step of the podium, clinching the SKUSA Pro Tour championship, becoming only the second female champion in the 12-year history of the program.

The fifth round of the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour at New Castle Motorsports Park was highlighted by some incredible racing action and more than one drag race out of the I-70 hairpin to the checkered flag. The 11th running of the SummerNationals will provide the cap to the 2021 national championship, and Saturday's racing only served to set the stage for Sunday's finale and the crowning of this year's national champions. In the Pro Shifter class, which boasted a stunning grid of 30 karts including 16 of the top-20 from the EKN Driver Rankings, PSL Karting's Jake French renewed his title hopes after holding back Andrew Bujdoso for the victory. An uncharacteristic mechanical DNF put point leader AJ Myers on the sidelines during the opening lap, which has blown the championship wide open. The X30 Senior title fight remains in the hands of the Rolison Performance Group, and while the team has three drivers vying for the championship, it was one of their drivers not in the title chase Nate Cicero who pulled steadily away from the stacked field to score his first SKUSA Pro Tour victory.

The 12th season of the Superkarts! USA Pro Tour is set to conclude this weekend (August 13-15) with the 11th running of the SKUSA SummerNationals at the New Castle Motorsports Park. A season high of 245 entries over the nine categories will converge on the New Castle, Indiana facility – site of last year's SKUSA Summer Festival with two weekends of racing featuring six rounds of competition.
New Castle has been the home of the SummerNationals since 2015, with the SKUSA Pro Tour champions decided from 2017 to the present after the creation of the WinterNationals. The 'SKUSA Super Mile' course is the layout for this weekend, similar to what was used the first weekend in 2020, featuring the wild 'ski jump' section mixing the 'national' layout with the extension area. Weather will be an issue with humidity expected to be high, however, rain is not forecasted for the days of racing. Read full story on eKartingNews.com

Communication Rights in the Digital Age
EnglishSuomiSvenskaSupport us
Communication Rights in the Digital Age /
Detailed programme coming soon
International Conference Organized by the Helsinki Media Policy Research Group, the University of Helsinki, the ECREA Communication Law and Policy Section and the Euromedia Research Group, and supported by the IAMCR Communication Policy & Technology Section.
24–25 October 2019, Helsinki, Finland
Conference participants will be invited to submit to a special issue of the Journal of Information Policy.
The rights-based perspective on ethical and political questions presented by the new digital media has recently regained attention in academic and political debates. The formulation of human rights, in general, is based on a communication right – freedom of expression – as well as a right to take part and be heard in dialogue. In the digital era, the role of communication has been magnified.
Calls for the protection of citizens' "digital rights," for example, have resulted in countless reports and declarations by governments, international bodies, and activist organizations over the past two decades. In addition to debates on the consequences of digital transformations for established rights, such as freedom of expression, new rights have been envisioned, such as "the right to be forgotten" and the right to internet access.
Thus far, there are more academic, public and policy debates than solid and sustainable legal and policy solutions. This is not surprising given the complexity of these rights, which have many context-based variations, operate on the cusp of theory and praxis, and are constantly evolving with technological advances. Communication rights refer not only to legal norms but also more broadly to the freedoms and norms that have special significance to societies and individuals.
Due to the importance of communication rights to societies and democracy, it is imperative to understand how those rights are defined, manifested, regulated and monitored today. The realization of communication rights is further shaped by economic, political and socio-cultural situations. What do we know about these contexts? How can we accumulate a better conceptual and empirical understanding of communication rights?
This conference will specifically address the interplay of national and global, universal and specific, characteristics of communication rights. Core questions include but are not limited to the following:
What are some definitions of communication rights?
- What should be considered communication rights?
- What is their relationship to human rights and/or natural rights?
- How do communication rights differ from the classic reliance on speech rights as the basis for media regulation?
Who are the policy and other actors defining these rights in national and international contexts, and what are their roles in discursive and/or policy-making contexts?
- How do different academic disciplines respond to the concept of communication rights?
- How are rights interpreted in different empirical contexts?
- For instance, communication rights and their position in national constitutions
What are the current core issues or cases that pertain to communication rights? These may include but are not limited to
- Market concentration, platforms and "big tech": EU and national responses (for instance, platforms financing media and their influence on journalism)
- New policies for diversity; new tools and policies for media support and sustainability (for instance, media flows, cultural diversity and new policy tools, such as the Netflix tax, or old policy tools, such as quotas)
- The influence of party politics and populism (and the context of hate speech) on freedom of speech
- Increasing state control of media outlets, including public broadcasters
We are especially interested in novel conceptual and theoretical interventions, but we also appreciate comparative empirical approaches.
Confirmed keynote speaker:
Philip M. Napoli, James R. Shepley Professor of Public Policy, Professor in the Sanford School of Public Policy, Professor of the International Comparative Studies Program, Duke University, United States.

Measuring research output
Last night John Denham, the Secretary of State for Innovation, Universities and Skills gave a speech at the RSA in which he called for scientists to engage more fully with policy-makers and the public. He saw this as a key enabler for meeting the challenges of the next century.
This call in itself is not new, but Denham went further in actually considering some of the reasons why the research community are often reluctant to leave their ivory towers.
I think many will welcome this statement but will want the minister to look further at how the RAE has affected other parts of academic culture.
The RAE has been a reality of academic life for the last 20 years and few would doubt it has had a positive impact on the quality of academic output in the UK – but it has also narrowed the focus of what it means to be a researcher, particularly in science and technology subjects where as Denham concedes, the system is weighted towards publishing as much as possible in high impact-factor journals.
Another area that may suffer from the pressure of the RAE is interdisciplinary and risky/adventurous research. The argument goes that such research will not be published in traditional high impact-factor journals and that it is more difficult and takes longer, reducing published output.
As part of the consultation mentioned by Denham, HEFCE published a piece of statistical research by Evidence Ltd which indicated that using publication metrics (relative numbers of citations) to assess the quality of research will not disadvantage interdisciplinary research, as has been widely believed.
This is interesting, but in many ways does not solve the problem as there is still a widely held perception that such research is at a disadvantage. Whilst the perception exists, some department heads will still steer their younger colleagues into 'safe' well established areas of research.
And before we jump to condemn such behaviour it worth remembering that the RAE holds the key to significant amounts of funding which can make or break an academic department.
Going back to John Denham's original concerns regarding policy and public engagement, I wonder if he is opening a wider debate on exactly what should be the role of the academic and indeed academic institutions in society? Can we develop an academically excellent but more innovative and outward looking 'Academy' with links between disciplines and to industry, policy makers and the wider public?
Our present system, whilst paying lip service to all these wider relationships does not provide the right structure of incentives. This is the challenge for HEFCE in planning its new model to assess research.

Experiential Branding
Africa, Continent of Promise
Making a Positive Difference in Africa
Branding is a Force for Good
The HKLM Difference
March 1, 2018 / brand, communication, Conversation, engagement, Mark Lives, Marketing
Leadership has continued to occupy centre-stage since we closed out last year and have seen in the few two months of 2018. While we celebrated the demise of the rule of our neighbour's despot leader, Bob Mugabe, we too have witnessed Jacob Zuma being ousted by Cyril Ramaphosa for the ANC and republic leadership berths. Sadly, the finger that we constantly point at government and the public sector doesn't suggest that the private sector is immune to failed leadership behaviour.
Over this period, iconic South African and international success story Steinhoff has fallen from grace, surrounded by a scandal implicating its chief executive, Markus Jooste. What a travesty for this brand and the good people in Steinhoff, of which there are many. It has been a darling performer among South Africa's Top-40-listed companies for some time, so why the change in leadership behaviour — ego, power, narcissism or sheer fraud and criminality? Perhaps we have simply had the wool pulled over our eyes for a while.
Possibly, the real private-public-partnership model (PPP) should be one of a joint commitment to integrity and a complete stamping out of corrupt behaviour across the board. Starting with our leadership groups, of course. We simply can neither inspire nor expect employees and citizens to live organisational or institutional values while leaders set this kind of example.
Irrational behaviour
Dan Ariely¹ suggests that the issue of motivation is still very much a work in progress and we have yet to fully understand it. He argues that the story of motivation isn't at all straight-forward; rather, it's mysterious and complicated. Given the widespread leadership issues that continue to prevail, he seems right and it underpins his theory that, at some point or another, we all become offenders against human motivation when we ignore, criticise, disregard or simply destroy the work of others.
Ariely offers that we are positively driven by all kinds of intangible, emotional forces: the need to feel ownership, to feel a sense of accomplishment, to find the security of a long-term commitment and a sense of shared purpose — the things that make our labour and lives matter. To motivate ourselves and others, we need to provide a sense of connection and meaning — hardly the stuff of corruption, maladministration and thievery.
In an analogy to the realm of physics and the wishful notion of building something out of nothing or creating perpetual motion, he believes that this is possible to an extent with human motivation and therein lies our unique possibility inside organisations and indeed life. We can have perpetual energy as long as we invest in a sense of connection, meaning, ownership and long-term thinking. And if we do this correctly, the return on investment in human motivation and behaviour will be immense.
Phil Knight appears to have understood this concept fully, from the onset in the creation of Nike. Apart from offering an inspiring read on entrepreneurship and the personal journey of building a great global brand, Shoe Dog² is a compelling story of belief and purpose and how, if correctly applied, it can lie at the very heart of building an amazing organisation and brand.
It's not a story of pure romance and success; to the contrary, it's one of significant challenge, trials and tribulations of an entrepreneur. But it's extraordinary how the sense of shared purpose and belief galvanises every facet of the business-building process, including recruiting talent, challenging conventional financial models, seeking athlete endorsements, taking the company public and guiding shareholder and management decisions throughout the journey.
One of Knight's close friends and lifelong business partner, Jeff Johnson. describes the act of running as something spiritual and Zen-like. This philosophy virtually transcends the business and lies at the heart of building a high-performance organisation, an obsession with product quality and the development of a very transparent and robust management style in the business that has been a key part of its success. Ironically, in this case, money and wealth were never the focal point.
Turning local, it was refreshing therefore to see Rob Shuter present the MTN case study at a recent Deloitte forum³. It's a company that is not without its challenges and has faced some real difficulties across the many pioneer markets in which it operates, notably the very significant fine it had to pay in Nigeria. These challenges notwithstanding, he presented a convincing case of restored purpose and shared belief in recalibrating the business and reinstating its startup energy and nature.
BRIGHT is an acronym that underpins each key lever of the business strategy and also translates through both the internal and external communication surrounding the brand — the central idea of brightening and improving staff and customer lives across its markets. His presentation was convincing and his leadership commitment and style feels compelling enough to sense that, by his own admission, the work lies in getting it off the PowerPoint slides and onto the ground. In a refreshing perspective, he left the audience with no doubt that the company will pursue this relentlessly as it aims to drive inclusive growth across some 22 countries in 2018.
It was John F Kennedy who said that learning and leadership are indispensable to each other. Perhaps, as leaders, we can reflect on what is right and what is wrong, with greater emphasis on the former.

Teens who reach the upper age limit of the BE regular camp program (ages 7-15) can apply and interview for the six to eight available positions in the LIT program. Teens who have finished one year in the program are given priority for attending a second and third year. Acceptance into the summer training program requires completion of two out of four evening programs (see below), a complete application, an interview, and two references. Returning LITs will have a follow-up interview to assess their experience from the previous summer and to set goals for the year ahead. Returning LITs must also attend two out of four evening programs.
The year begins in the fall with four evening programs sprinkled throughout the year. The individuals selected to meet with the BE LITs are professionals with compelling stories who share how they overcame personal challenges and adversity. They draw on their own experiences and work habits—discipline, leadership skills, personal responsibility and resilience, community service, financial responsibility, and citizenship—all to align with the City of Boston's resources.
The summer component of the program consists of working with campers (ages 7-15), participating in the regular BE program (woodworking, explorations, and rowing) with a focus on assisting the campers and working collaboratively with the staff. In addition, there will be five to six meetings with professionals who, like the year-round program participants, will share their personal stories with our Teens as a way of providing insight into the challenges of leading a successful life. Since the program cycle begins in the fall, the BE LIT program will have as many as four speakers for the summer of 2018.
To be eligible for the summer component of the program, where LITs begin to receive a salary for their work, every applicant must be in "good standing," which means that they will have completed an application, an interview, and will have attended at least two of the programs that are offered in the fall and spring.
The assessment of the LITs will be in two different phases—one for their summer work with campers, staff, and each other and the other for their participation in the year-round component of the program.
INTERESTED IN BECOMING AN LIT?

On July 29, 2000, just before 5:00 p.m., we welcomed the arrival of our precious daughter at 27 weeks, 1 day. Her due date was October 27, 2000. Though I had been in the hospital 23 days and was ready to be at the end of such intense physical pain, I knew that the end of my pain would mean the beginning of hers.
Because I was under general anesthesia for the c-section, it took several hours for me to wake up and regain clear vision. When I did at around 3:00 a.m., I told my husband, "I can see; show me the pictures!" He turned on the light in my hospital room and handed me the two polaroids that the nurses had taken. There she was, so small, looking just like her older brother did at birth (he was 9 lbs.), but smaller (she was 2 lbs.), and with a severe grimace on her face, with tubes everywhere. I cried out, "We have to pray right now!" It's all I knew to do, helpless as we were.
As we prayed, the neonatologist came in: "I saw your light on…. I was hoping I would find you awake to talk to you… she's touch and go…. we don't know what will happen…." She had had a reaction to something called surfactant, a substance given to help premature babies' underdeveloped lungs. They had sucked it back out, and she was on full vent, maximum oxygen, struggling for her little life. That wasn't the only problem, but one of many.
The following day, I was wheeled to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to see her for the first time. She was on a small rectangular flat bed, covered over tightly with what looked like a piece of saran wrap. I just looked at her and talked to her and prayed for her.
I spent the next 3 months going back and forth to the hospital, taking care of my son at home and taking care of her in the hospital. Little by little, day by day, enduring many ups and downs, we got to her original due date and discharge on October 27, 2000.
I saw God's hand in so many details. We have so many amazing stories of this time. The verse at the top is significant to me because it's one the Lord gave me as I was awaiting her eye surgery. She had "retinopathy of prematurity" which had advanced to stage 3, level 2. ROP has 5 stages with stage 4 being retinal detachment and stage 5 being blindness. They were prepared to do the surgery at her stage 3 to stop the rapid progression. I was told that the surgery was effective in 80% of the cases, but I also knew that the surgery could bring long term negative side effects regarding her vision. We prayed intensely for the 3 days leading up to the surgery.
The day of the surgery arrived, and they sent me across the hall to the waiting room so they could check her eyes before they began. As I continued praying, I opened the Bible in the waiting room and saw this verse from Psalm 145:6 "Men shall speak of the power of Your awesome acts, and I will tell of Your greatness." I knew in my heart at that moment that she would not need the surgery, that it would be an awesome act on her behalf, and that I should profess to the eye surgeons God's greatness.
The nurse came to get me very soberly, saying, "They want to see you now." As I walked into the NICU, the two doctors were standing there, and they turned around to see me with their faces beaming. "We wouldn't have expected this!" one of them said. "Her eyes have improved! They're not totally better, but we aren't going to do the surgery. We'll come back and check them in a few days." Though her eyes were followed regularly for the next several months, she never needed surgery and today is only borderline for glasses (slightly nearsighted). I told the doctors, "The Lord did this" and did testify to His greatness.
This is just one example of many where I saw God intimately concerned about the details of our lives. In fact, I would tell people when I would tell them about her in the days and years that followed that "we saw God in every detail"!
Stunned. I was simply stunned by this. How could I have written this and gone on to have this premature baby who did indeed teach me that God cared for us in every detail of our lives! This was the reality I had learned that I had verbalized to everyone since her birth. And here I was reading this journal entry that that's what I had been needing to be convinced of. And I was. And God is good. And His ways are right. And I love Him. And I give Him praise. And I thank Him for being in all life's details.
Today, she is a healthy (though still small), 8 year old little girl. She loves stuffed animals, arts & crafts, writing, reading her Bible, but most importantly, she loves God. I am sharing above a picture from family camp last week. They did facepainting at the carnival at camp, and she asked if she could have this painting on her face.
She writes poetry constantly. Below is just one of her poems. They are always very theological and praiseworthy. When I wonder where she gets these thoughts, I am reminded of all those prayers when she was in the incubator that God would be close to her when no one else could be there or hold her. I trusted that He held her, and I see indications that He has made Himself known to her in very real and powerful ways. I praise Him for all He has done and all He will do in this precious one's life.
Then they'll actually know You're true.
Because I love You and I know You're holy.
And then they'll know You, too!
And stop loving You is what I'll do NEVER!
and You love everyone and everything!
Praise You, Lord! We weren't promised 8 seconds, 8 minutes, or 8 days, and yet, here we are at 8 years! You have been gracious to us, patient with us, revealed Yourself to us, and lovingly helped us. To You alone be the glory!
Beautiful, this story, and beautifully written. Poignant and powerful. Thank you for this.
Carolyn, I love this story. I can't believe that poem. Unbelievable!
Her poem at the end – wow, intensely beautiful.

Jaden Smith Drops New Album 'ERYS', Features Willow Smith, Kid Cudi & A$AP Rocky + Mom Jada Pinkett Smith Remixes His Video
July 5, 2019	by Char Patterson	in Music	with 0 Comments
Jaden Smith has a brand new album out! He released the 17-track project Friday and it's already getting a major buzz.
The first four are called, P, I, N, K respectively. Followed by Noize, i-drip-or-is, Again, Got It, Fire Dept, Mission, Summertime in Paris, Blackout, Pain, Chateau, On My Own and Riot.
The features are also impressive with appearances from his younger sister, Willow Smith, Kid Cudi, A$AP Rocky, Tyler the Creator, and Trinidad James.
Trinidad James
He wraps the album with the song of the same name, ERYS, that's just under 8 minutes.
The album can be streamed on all major platforms.
He opened up about how this album is different than its predecessor, SYRE.
"SYRE is the nice one, kind of the more sensitive one. And ERYS is just kind of like, doesn't really care at all."
He said Noize, which features Tyler The Creator, could get the most attention.
"It might be the most talked-about song on the album. You just … You have to hear Tyler's verse […] I got Tyler's verse so last minute, like at the deadline of the album."
As for Again, which marks his latest single, Jaden said,
"It's kind of like the angel and devil on my shoulder, and SYRE's the angel. That was me telling the world, 'Yo, this album's gonna be something you haven't seen from me.'"
Of course his mom, Jada Pinkett Smith, also showed love for Jaden's new music.
A lil parental embarrassment before Jaden's 21st birthday? #ERYS out now!
A post shared by Jada Pinkett Smith (@jadapinkettsmith) on Jul 4, 2019 at 9:22pm PDT
It's definitely a good year for Jaden. Along with his new album, he'll be going on tour with Tyler The Creator.

National framework to improve accessibility to Australian courts for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and migrant and refugee women
"Australia is one of the most ethnically, culturally and linguistically diverse countries in the world. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population is nearing 700,000, or 3 per cent of the total population, and 11 per cent of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples speak an Australian Indigenous language at home.The 2011 Census recorded that over a quarter of Australia's population was born overseas and another one fifth had at least one overseas-born parent.More than 300 languages are spoken in Australian households.Almost half (49 per cent) of longer-standing migrants and 67 per cent of recent arrivals speak a language other than English at home. This diversity is expected to increase."

Sweeping changes to family court system
From the start of 2019, the Family Court and Federal Circuit Court will be combined in an attempt to speed up the process of settling family disputes by providing one court, one set of rules and procedures. It is hoped that the some 22,000 cases filed across the two courts will be able to reach trial sooner than the current 1.5 year period. It is expected an additional 8000 cases will be resolved each year due to the crossover in jurisdiction and procedures.
There has been scepticism from the legal community, predominantly due to the lack of consultation, and the proposed divisions within the new 'super court'.

Senate inquiry into dowry abuse in Australia to probe 'devastating' impacts on women
The Senate Standing Committees on Legal and Constitutional Affairs is assessing the adequacy of Australia's family law and migration law systems in addressing dowry abuse, after media investigations uncovered a spate of horrific deaths resulting from the cultural practice. It will also consider the potential links of dowry abuse with family violence, forced marriage, modern slavery, as well as mental health outcomes for women.
The Committee is currently accepting public submissions, and will consult members from affected communities, advocates and peak body organisations. A final report is due back on 6 December 2018.

Domestic Violence offenders no longer allowed to question abuse victims in Family Court
Legislation has been introduced by the Federal Government to eliminate the ability of self-represented litigants to cross-examine their victims during family law matters, in an attempt to curb community concern and avoid further trauma of victims. The changes mean that where there are clear allegations and/or convictions of violence, the perpetrator is unable to cross-examine the victim of the violence. Courts also now have the discretion to stop direct cross-examination where domestic violence is alleged, and are required to put in place extra protection for alleged victims if questioning is permitted.

"Senior Sitter" ad sparks call for better vetting of aged care workers to reduce elder abuse
In response to a newsletter advertisement offering to mind seniors in clients' homes on a freelance basis for payment, a Gold Coast solicitor is calling for Australia to introduce a coordinated system for screening people who work in the aged care sector, similar to Working with Children Checks. The solicitor has raised concerns as to the safety of the elderly who could be placed into the care of unvetted individuals, and a vetting process would help guard against elder abuse.

CFCA Paper: Diagnosis in child mental health
This paper encourages practitioners in the child and family welfare sector to examine their own understanding of diagnostic systems, and to critically reflect on the role diagnosis plays in their work. The diagnostic systems employed in Australia are still being debated, and emerging evidence suggests that certain mental health conditions may be overdiagnosed in children. The Paper finds that current diagnostic systems are not scientific certainties, rather are cultural tools to understand different varieties of psychological distress and impairment.

CFCA Resource Sheet: The intersection between the child protection and youth justice systems.
This resource summarises data collected linking the child protection system and youth justice supervision in Australia. It finds that young people in the child protection system are much more likely to be under youth justice supervision than the general population. The reasons for this are multiple and complex, and involve a range of risk factors including a history of maltreatment, social disadvantage, out-of-home care experiences, trauma and developmental delays.
While only a minority of young people involved in the child protection system were also under youth justice supervision in 2014–16, those who were represent a comparatively high proportion of the total number under youth justice supervision

The World Health Organisation refers to elder abuse as 'a single or repeated act or lack of appropriate action, occurring within any relationship where there is an expectation of trust which causes harm or distress to an older person'.
In 2016, Legal Aid ACT made a submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission on the topic of Elder Abuse. This submission paper was titled 'Protecting the Rights of Older Australians From Abuse'.
This year Legal Aid ACT received funding to launch a specialist legal service for older persons. If you are an older person seeking legal advice, please contact our Older Persons ACT Legal Service (OPALS).
Legal Aid ACT has also developed a number of factsheets on the issue of elder abuse. These can be downloaded from the Information and Education page.
