Why have Jews risen to the top of the business and professional world in numbers staggeringly out of proportion to their percentage of the American population? Steven Silbiger has the answer. Combining the huge appeal of the bestsellers The Millionaire Next Door and The Gifts of the Jews, The Jewish Phenomenon sets forth the seven principles that form the bedrock of Jewish financial success. With truly startling statistics, a wealth of anecdotes, and a liberal sprinkling of Jewish humor, Silbiger shows convincingly how these principles have helped the Jews historically and how they continue to ensure Jewish success today. More important, Silbiger makes clear that these seven "secrets" are not secret at all and are equally at the disposal of Jews and non-Jews alike. The amazing success of the Jews simply proves that they work.

Tesco?s Adaptation of Activities ? Environment Tesco have not really needed to focus on their environmental status, up until the beginning of this century, when ?Global Warming? began to take effect. Since ?Global Warming? Tesco have had to be wary of everything they do, from the packaging of their food, to the lights in each store. Every year some resources are becoming more limited and so therefore Tesco have had to change the way they run their stores. Tesco have started to use things such as bio fuel and energy efficient light bulbs, in order to adapt with the change in the environment. As well as using these things, Tesco have put them on sale to the public at affordable costs in order to encourage their customers to be greener, Tesco have also started to reward their customers for being ?green? with the green Clubcard, the main aim of the green Clubcard is to help customers also become green, by reusing carrier bags By doing this Tesco will reward the customer with a number of points for being ?Green? the points they receive build up and then can be used to discount their shopping bill .The Green Clubcard scheme also helps customers recycle things like printer cartridges or old mobile phones. Tesco need to make sure that they continue to find ?greener? methods of running their day to day activities, as the resources they use will become more and more limited and therefore expensive, and customers will not be able to afford them, things such as petrol etc. Tesco have recently announced that through the use of disposable plastic bags is in steep decline as thousands of their shoppers have switched to using reusable permanent shopping bags, since the introduction of the Green Clubcard in 2006 Tesco customers have saved over 2 billion carrier bags as of August 2008. Statistics show that the use of carrier bags is 40% lower than the same period two years ago. Tesco?s Corporate and Legal Affairs Director, Lucy Neville-Rolfe says: ?We have helped our customers cut bag use by 40% without a bag tax adding to the cost of their weekly shop. In fact, our Green Clubcard scheme helps people save on their shopping bills. Our customers have shown us how keen they are to break this environmentally-damaging habit of a lifetime ? the ?carrot? approach clearly works It took more than 14 months to save the first billion bags but the second billion was achieved in less than 9 months, showing that the trend is rapidly gaining support. Even the most committed greenies occasionally forget to bring their shopping bags with them, so there will always be carrier bags available free of charge. We want to help our customers remember to reuse their bags, rather than punish them when they forget.? Following this news Tesco has already sent all of its Clubcard customers a new key fob which carries a reminder to bring their bags with them. Tesco have also begun using ?Reminder Banners? in the car parks of their stores, to bring their bags. Tesco has also introduced a range of affordable and attractive reusable bags to make it more appealing for customers to make the switch. It brought in Cath Kidston ? one of Britain?s best-loved designers ? to extend its range with bags made from recycled plastic bottles. Tesco Charity of the Year, Marie Curie Cancer Care, receives a 50 pence donation for every bag sold. A new vintage-inspired design hits Tesco stores this week. (more...)

Does this study make you think any differently about that opinion? Study: Family behavior key to health of gay youth By LISA LEFF, Associated Press Writer Lisa Leff, Associated Press Writer ? Mon Dec 29, 12:02 am ET SAN FRANCISCO ? Young gay people whose parents or guardians responded negatively when they revealed their sexual orientation were more likely to attempt suicide, experience severe depression and use drugs than those whose families accepted the news, according to a new study. The way in which parents or guardians respond to a youth's sexual orientation profoundly influences the child's mental health as an adult, say researchers at San Francisco State University, whose findings appear in Monday's journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics. "Parents love their children and want the best for them," said lead researcher Caitlin Ryan, a social worker who directs the university's Family Acceptance Project. "Now that we have measured all these behaviors, we can see that some of them put youth at extremely high risk and others are wellness-promoting." Among other findings, the study showed that teens who experienced negative feedback were more than eight times as likely to have attempted suicide, nearly six times as vulnerable to severe depression and more than three times at risk of drug use. More significantly, Ryan said, ongoing work at San Francisco State suggests that parents who take even baby steps to respond with equanimity instead of rejection can dramatically improve a gay youth's mental health outlook. One of the most startling findings was that being forbidden to associate with gay peers was as damaging as being physically beaten or verbally abused by their parents in terms of negative feedback, Ryan said. In the two-part study, Ryan and her colleagues first interviewed 53 families with gay teenagers to identify 106 specific behaviors that could be considered "accepting" or "rejecting." For example, blaming a youth for being bullied at school, shielding him from other relatives or belittling her appearance for not conforming to social expectations fell into the rejecting category. Next, they surveyed 224 white and Latino gay people between ages 21 and 25 to see which of the behaviors they had experienced growing up. The responses then were matched against the participants' recent histories of severe depression, suicide attempts, substance abuse and unsafe sexual behavior. While the results might seem intuitive, Ryan said the study, funded by the California Endowment, was the first to establish a link between health problems in gay youths and their home environments. She has used the information in workshops with parents and other caregivers who have strained relationships with their gay teenagers, and said many were alarmed enough to make immediate changes in their interactions. Ryan recalled a teenage girl whose mother forced her to date a boy and sent her to live with her grandmother when she learned her daughter was a lesbian. After hearing about the connection between parental attitudes and suicide, the mother stopped arranging the dates with the boy and instead inquired about her daughter's girlfriend. "She was really concerned," Ryan said. "She saw that her daughter had become increasingly withdrawn and that she was contributing to these feelings of isolation and sadness." In her paper for the journal Pediatrics, Ryan recommends that medical professionals ask young patients how their families have reacted to their sexual orientations and tell parents that negative reactions may prove harmful even if well-intentioned. Such conversations are necessary because young people have been coming out at younger ages. Consistent with other studies, the youths in Ryan's study were on average under 11 years old when they first experienced a same-sex attraction, were just over 14 when they realized they were gay and came out to their families before they had turned 16. Doctors, in a misguided attempt to comfort parents, may tell them a child who isn't sexually active couldn't know if he were gay or not, Ryan said. "When providers and adults and family members think of gay people, they think of sex. They don't think of emotional attraction or social interaction or spiritual connectedness or deep-rooted psychological feelings," she said. Sten Vermund, a Vanderbilt University pediatrician who became interested in Ryan's work this summer when she presented her research at the international AIDS conference in Mexico City, agrees that doctors should be encouraged to talk with parents about responding to a child's sexual orientation in a supportive way. "So many families of children who are gay, bisexual or transgender, particularly families of gay male youth, think that if they are tough on the kid and tell him how unsatisfactory his gay lifestyle is to the family, he will have it knocked out of him," Vermund said. Vermund said he also was i TML, what's Vermund? (more...)
