Chicago gay leaders talk equal marriage strategy
2009-06-24 06:04:00 What's next for the gay rights movement? That's the question some leaders in Chicago's gay community tried to answer Monday night during a panel discussion at the Center on Halsted. About 30 people gathered to hear the thoughts of Andy Thayer, co-founder of the Gay Liberation Network; Tania Unzueta of the Chicago Dyke March; and Christopher Clark, a senior staff attorney at Lambda Legal. It's been almost a month since the California Supreme Court upheld Proposition 8 and the Illinois State Legislature ended its session without voting on the much-anticipated civil unions bill. So what's next? A March on Washington, for one. The National Equality March is set to take place Oct. 10-11 to demand "equal protection in all matters governed by...

2009 Leaders & Managers Need Outstanding Soft Skills
2009-01-03 11:21:00 I’ve always stood by the belief that strong people skills (a far reaching topic in itself) are critical to the success of any manager or leader, whether they’re a Project Manager or CEO. Certainly there are those who exist without those skills, but their success and longevity are often minimal, as we shall see below. According to some HR specialists, 2009 is the year of the socially skilled diplomatic character who approaches tasks with a “together we can” attitude, as opposed to the authoritarian “I want” approach. The change that many have already embraced is from strict hierarchical vertical structures to more horizontal networks. The old manager was expected to organise, direct, set objectives, communicate clearly and enforce the hierarchy. Today’s manager needs to be a coach and an inspirational leader. The new manager is expected to have or cultivate ‘soft skills’, relational and emotional, be a superb communicator and able to realise ...

Syria Leaders Nickname Obama "Abu Hussein"
2008-11-07 22:25:00 Are they racist for using his middle name? It seems everyone else that uses it is labeled racist.Meanwhile, a Syrian analyst on Friday said Syria would be prepared to restrain the militant activities of Hezbollah and Hamas if a U.S. administration led by President-elect Barack Obama shifts its policy toward Damascus. In an article published on Friday on the Asia Times Web site, Syrian analyst Sami Mubayed called on Obama to endorse the renewed peace talks with Israel to ensure their success. Mubayed, whose analyses are considered the official standpoint of the Syrian government, urged Obama to "normalize" relations between Washington and Damascus. Such "normalization" of ties would include dispatching a new U.S. ambassador to Damascus, the first since the deterioration of the states' ties in 2005. Syria would also demand that the economic sanctions against it be dropped, a change in Western rhetoric toward Damascus and compensation for the recent deadly U.S. air strike in which eig...

League resumed following the week-long All-Star break, winning 3-1 at a packed Fukuda Denshi Arena in Chiba.Australian defender Eddy Bosnar opened the scoring for United with a thunderbolt free-kick just before half-time, but it was talismanic striker Seiichiro Maki who stole the show, steering home two superb headers after the interval. His goals made Masashi Motoyama's well-taken header redundant, as the Antlers paid the price for fielding an under-strength starting eleven.The win delighted United's Glaswegian coach Alex Miller, who paid tribute to his side's determination following a win that draws United level on points with second-from-bottom Consadole Sapporo.Elsewhere Urawa Reds were held to a 2-2 draw by Kashiwa Reysol in front of 46,981 fans at Saitama Stadium, with both teams scoring in the final minute of the game.Winger Minoru Suganuma opened the scoring for Reysol, however the Sun Kings were pegge...
