VERIFIABLE OUTCOMES ALWAYS RESULT FROM SOUND DECISIONS! - (UPDATED 5/16, 5/17, 5/20 , 5/21, 5/23 & 6/17/2013 as well as 1/18, 8/7 & 8/9/2014 in addition to 9/29/2015)


Introduction:
This is a follow-up to the previous post “EXPEDIENT DECISION-MAKING, ALWAYS A MISTAKE (EDITED AND UPDATED)!” to focus on the verifiable results aspect of sound decisions versus expedient decision-making. As the previous post pointed out, the results of expedient decisions are wrought with disastrous outcomes of the type that causes what was least expected to escalate before us in unimaginable ways. These developments then in turn cause us to resort to “face saving” measures that once enacted and set in motion are very difficult to reconsider or halt to follow the path that is most appropriate* (see Footnote). On the other hand, if sound decision-making is followed the outcomes will be of the verifiable type that can serve as a model (or example) especially when time was taken to record one’s journey by at least two (2) verifiable methods of the type documented in the post HOW THE RECORDING OF MY JOURNEY SAVED THE DAY (EDITED AND UPDATED!. The interaction with these young people began also with a volunteer effort at my first residence in New Haven, the apartment of my former spouse, which I first called home in New Haven, CT after our May 9, 1982 wedding and honeymoon in the Poconos. We remained there until the following January when we purchased our Branford condo and naturally the homework/tutoring sessions followed as the young people could no longer walk to the our residence, we had to pick them up and drop them off after the sessions were over in Branford [see the posts HOW STONEGATE THROUGH 140TH AVE, OLIN (IA)ARE CONNECTED as well as THE IMPORTANCE OF RECORD-KEEPING]. In the process, many conflict resolution sessions were conducted to prevent minor issues from being blown completely out of proportion to the demise of the efforts that assisted in acquaintances being reunited instead of the alternatives and when needed the parents had to be involved to ensure that the type of disputes that could leave wounds fractured needlessly did not cause such outcomes to impact the successful operation of the outreach efforts (over at times the most minor of issues). This specific description will demonstrate via photos and recorded events that tangible results are always evident when sound decision are made.
However, please note that this outline is not intended an an endorsement of any specific denomination because when it mattered most, the same Benevolent Organization highlighted chose expediency over sound decision-making (as the 3rd example in the post THE COEXISTENCE OF DISSOLUTION AND TRIUMPH documents as well as THE COEXISTENCE OF DISSOLUTION AND TRIUMPH - UPDATED); therefore, in some ways the action of this Organization was much worse that those entities who follow "whatever works" methods because much better isn't expected from them. With this in mind, please follow.

The Starting Point For This is the journal Entry for January 1984:
The prior post that serves as the inception for this follow-up show that on January 8, 1984 plans were being made (coordinated) with another Youth Outreach Coordinator and the outcome of this planning was the resulting combined effort for both youth groups that took place on January 28, 1984, see the Program of Activities documented below:





















Zooming in on the above Program to the right will highlight how my name was always usedwhich expedient vindictive ex types have somehow conveniently "forgotten" for a "price", especially when she was present at many of these events as shown in the below photos with a young Dejon.
That year was very hectic, and many activities were planned of, which the following Outline Summary depict the activities with corresponding photos as appropriate for the summer/early fall series of activities, which were conducted; from convalescent home visits to the Beauties of Nature parks visitation series in addition to Youth Rally activities and a Theme Park visit to 6-Flags in New Jersey to end the outdoor event,: see photos included below:

The Finale/Outcome of these Activities:
As a result of these events, the following year, 1985, led to a singular large-scale event being planned in the community with other medium sized events being planned leading up to the Fair to work towards more meaningful goals to assist community residents, in the form of the Community Health Fair that took place from July 28 through August 10 of that year. However, to accomplish that undertaking weekly lot clean-up sessions were conducted on the vacant lots selected for the activity next door to a “shadowy” basketball court that was a meeting ground for any type of unsavory activity imaginable in the community, from drug deals to everything in between. It took many months to plan and the local Pastor asking me if I really intended to go out in the lot and clean up the horrible surroundings, to, which I replied yes. On the first week of the multi-week clean up effort, none of the young people showed up, however, my persistence eventually resulted in them finding the courage to come out and assist. The following photos depict the outcome of that effort, the Health Fair that resulted.



NOTE: "FRM" ABOVE SHOULD BE "FROM" and note my usual first name is shown in this letter to the area Alderman consistent with what has been represented on the Pages of this Blog in posts such as in the Here are the Background Issues section of the post THE DECISION TO ALTER MY RETURN TO MY HOMELAND, AT THIS TIME - UPDATED

The Hill district encompassed the 3rd Ward of New Haven,
CT, which both Aldermen, Turner and Dawson represented.














In 1985 The Health Fair made the New Haven, CT News Coverage Local CHN

also shot is used to depict what occurred on 8/5/1985 when I was interviewed).

This was  a photo of the Local CHN 8 Affiliate, New Haven, CT
as they shot footage of Health Fair 1986 Health Fair News
Coverage - But in 1986 we didn't  make the 6:00 PM News.
It must also be pointed out that that within a short approximate
2-year period, when a visit was paid to the neighborhood,
I almost did not recognize it, because gone were the empty lots,
basketball court along (shown in the above photo) with the types of
negative influences that were previously associated with them and they
were replaced with two brand new, nice sized homes,
each with backyards that by their presence, represented a complete
turn-around for that previously "depressed" neighborhood, underscoring
the fact that it's possible for one individual to make a difference,
by encouraging others to become involved (as documented in the
final paragraph of the post TIME PROVES A CRUSADER CORRECT
(EDITED)!.

The Finale:
Even before the Health Fair got underway, it was my interaction with the various City offices to coordinate the weekly clean up efforts at the vacant lots that resulted in my becoming familiar with the City's political structure as I would make contact to have the results of the clean up efforts collected and after the first such effort, they supplied the garbage bags to help place the refuse in, which they reminded me that they appreciated such initiatives in the community.

One of the local Aldermen whose assistance was greatly appreciated in obtaining the visit from the Mayor was communicated with to thank him for his very valued assistance to the extent such that it became obvious to me even then that God was using him to assist me as pointed out in my thank you letter to him as noted above (as a recognition of His direction of the events in the lives of His even when not fully aware of it along the way to finally responding to the request of a caring Mother at the appropriate point in time (see the post GOD DOES INDEED HONOR THE PRAYERS OF A CARING MOTHER!). The blood pressure screenings that all the youth were trained to perform along with professional assistance of a dependable community stalwart, resulted in over 295 people being screened, which included all the members of an entire family whose blood pressure readings were abnormally high and they were advised to seek additional assistance. It was reassuring to realize that the drug awareness, smoking health awareness and other health awareness issues brought to the attention of the community were greatly appreciated by them and in the case of that single family it was good to see how the action of alerting a single family member to his condition led to his bringing another and on finding that the same situation existed, brought another until the entire family had been screened and assisted. Needless to say they were very thankful for alerting them to the situation because they had no idea that the family members were so prone in this area. This only goes to show that persistence even in ensuring that the effort was conducted after the tent supports were destroyed overnight after the first night of it being erected and alternate supports to replace those destroyed by the vandals obtained to ensure that staying on schedule would take place occurred; even in spite of the added effort that had to be expended in erecting and disassembling the tent on a daily basis, that did not prevent the Fair activity from being held to the  documented schedule, see the Background Details section of the post THE COST OF VOLUNTEERING (EDITED AND UPDATED) for another reference to this activity, it was indeed a worthy experience for all, including myself and since the materials were purchased personally, the effort was carried out again in the summer of 1986.
Such outcomes can only be realized when sound decisions are enacted. These types of decisions even allow for unplanned contingencies to be put in place in order to avoid disastrous results to rule the day as oppose to relying on expedient type “whatever works” decisions to be the “hallmark” of my life’s efforts and then having to resort to easily obtained “free loader cause” type actions to bolster my background at the expense of others [a feature of those "paid" expedient, "whatever works", types who are relied upon by those of the "free loaders cause" to provide on-gong support for their "without origins", hog "manure" structures types as depicted in the post GARBAGE IN, (SWEET SMELLING ODORS), GARBAGE OUT - UPDATED], as the “king” in that noted saying who was wearing “no clothes” (or was unskilled) but was convinced he was well attired.

Conclusion:
When such decisions (sound) are made others who are lacking seek out such outcomes to borrow them in order to be able to give the appearance of having achieve much by contributing very, very little indeed. All will one day have to face the results of their actions because fictional types will ultimately be exposed for the impostors they are, and while it my take some time to accomplish, those who increase their “holdings” in the interim at the expense of others should not be used as measures of successful role models, as noted in the Here are the Results section of the post WHAT REALLY IS UNDERSTANDING -THE ADDENDUM (UPDATED)?, as it focuses on verses 16 through 18 of Psalms chapter 49, because such types will eventually falter as they usually do due to lack of proper balance in their lives that can ONLY result from a life that’s dependent on God for guidance in all things instead of “whatever works”, which never lasts because expedient measures are relied on to their peril, in all fairness. ONLY SOUND DECISIONS WILL ALLOW FOR THE TYPE OF OUTCOMES THAT CAN BE RELIED ON IN ALL SITUATIONS, REGARDLESS ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES BEING FACED, AND THAT CAN BE ASSURED FROM A LIFE LIVED IN PROPER BALANCE (as previously pointed out in THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GOD’S LAW AND MAN’S).
This is a valuable lesson for office holders as well as others generally, basically that practicing sound decision-making ultimately allows for not having to be continually being T-R-A-P-P-E-D  because of past actions in the lives of individuals that require  providing "paid" on-going, "questionable support" to "free loaders cause" types instead of non involvement in such disgraceful actions made necessary because of prior expedient decision-making, now requiring the constant looking-over-their-shoulders to ensure past actions don't come back to "haunt" them. Any individual who abuses any position entrusted to them, whether a former office holder or otherwise, don't have the right to be playing catch-up after the fact to try to maintain the results of their opportunistic decisions at the expense of a unsuspecting resident whose only action is to redress wrongs enacted by those with little consideration for the rights of others. Such types find it difficult to realize that neither more of the same type "checkbook legitimacy" nor other dictatorial type actions will cover-up the wrong-doing/expedient decision-making enacted in the life of such an individual as correctly called out in the post CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR IS NOT THE PATH TO AUTHENTICITY, WHEN THE WILL OF GOD IS INVOLVED - UPDATED. The only way forward for such types is to honor God and demonstrate respect for others as the post HONORING GOD AND RESPECTING OTHERS, PRACTICALLY so clearly highlights. While it must be emphasized that such a course of action as a turn-around is only possible in the lives of His chosen, others on occasion are known to implement such action when there is a beneficial result for such types. Doing what's right even though unpopular demonstrates that honoring God is a priority in the turned-around life of such an individual; and speaks volumes instead of continuous disrespectful courses of action. Taking such a position, as an example of reconciliation shows that change has been implemented, which along with consistency in this manner may even convince the most hardened unbelievers that the beginning of a "real" turn around has taken place, because it's never too late to act honorably. Sadly, most individuals rarely see the value in acting honorably (unless pretending for the cameras), to appropriately represent God's chosen, whom such are attempting to show others that they are servants and worthy descendants while at the same time carrying out the type of expedient actions depicted on the pages of this Blog (in such cases as the listing of the actions carried out and described in the Conclusion section of the post ETHICAL TREATMENT OF OTHERS SHOULD ALWAYS BE PRACTISED - EDITED AND UPDATED), without realizing the implicit ramifications of their actions. More often than not, these individuals follow the expedient path as documented in the Footnote below, leading to more complicated circumstances, and even more confusion than existed before, making matters worse, not better and ultimately denying God (as He knew such types would, sine He alone knows the future).


* Footnote:
Those who resort to expedient face-saving measures typically are acting out of desperation when other devious activities carried out have failed to produce the desired outcomes. As a result, such types (for example those of the "free loaders cause"), then attempt to use "whatever works" (or anyone they can muster, so willing to be used with incentives of one type or another, and often at the expense of taxpayers, when such types DON'T PAY TAXES IN  THEIR OWN IDENTITIES), to implement actions to obtain their intended results.

WHAT IS HONOR - (UPDATED AND AMENDED 5/20, 6/16 & 8/23/2013 as well as 1/17 & 3/19/2014) in additiion to 1/21/2015?

Introduction:
Proceeding honorably isn't selective, that can only be used when it's expedient but instead is reflective generally in the decisions made by any individual CONSISTENTLY. If an individual has made such actions a part of his or her life's undertakings it will be readily apparent and revealed without a great deal of effort. In other words, it won't be necessary to embark on an Easter egg hunt to find honorable actions if included by an individual whose decisions and operating style is based on standards. Whose standards are adopted will also come into focus especially if based on matters relating to God as opposed to man's way of conducting affairs. This description is on the subject of determining what honorable actions really are, please follow:

Here are the Background Details:
Take for example the following examples from my experiences to determine if a definitive pathway is either obvious or whether a crude oil drilling expedition is required to evaluate if conduct involving standards are recognized: 
  1. At Kerite, I was confronted with proceeding according to my standards or expediently when a product was being evaluated to demonstrate its use for a specific application, and the product passed the test for the required duration (for example 1000 days, however, on day 1001 the specific sample failed the test.) The manner in, which one proceeds will demonstrate if action carried out is based on standards or if expedient decision-making is practiced. In this instance, the details as they occurred were related including the 1001-day sample failing. It was correctly pointed out that the sample passed the (ex 1000-day) test and failed on day 1001 as occurred. Needless to say, it was not a popular decision and results of my annual performance review were noticeably delayed among other things, even though the prospective client pointed out that he very much appreciated the honesty and candor included in the Report, which did not have to be done and purchased the product anyway. The Sales Manager who understood my predicament did his best and the purchaser documented their appreciation as indicated above in writing along with purchasing the product. For the record, it must be pointed out that the perspective from, which this situation was approached was this, if my Company was the Purchaser in this situation, they would have appreciated being informed of the informational details of the test outcome and most certainly would not have wanted it withheld. Making all relevant details available and allowing the purchaser to decide with known information was the path that represented fairness in my opinion and it was adopted as the Engineer in charge of the test/product support activity. At the workplace I was persona non grata for sometime and one of my colleagues particularly was placed in a very compromising position regarding keeping his position or carrying out questionable actions, leaving him with what amounted to no alternative and needless-to-say, he buckled under such pressure and made very expedient decisions or else. Therefore, my decision to resign and pursue the volunteer activities in the Lighthouse Project Corporation (LPC), needless to say was greatly welcomed. In spite of his then actions, years later when given the opportunity  to make amends after my two-year time off to implement the LPC and follow-up activities, he without reservation gave a glowing recommendation to my prospective utility employer in conducting their background check that my hiring was never in question from that perspective, because all the other information received from the other individuals contacted at that time during that process confirmed the information conveyed by him. That is why the events associated with "operation replacement" as described in the "Those who had the good fortune to..." paragraph of The finale/Outcome section of the post PUTTING IN YOUR BEST ACE - EDITED AND UPDATED make no sense at all. This was a classic example of reconciling past expedient actions carried earlier under pressure and for this action in my opinion my former colleague became one of the first victims of the "free loader cause" types in their quest for fleeting "legitimacy by doing all the wrong things without realizing that CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR IS NOT THE PATH TO AUTHENTICITY WHEN THE WILL OF GOD IS INVOLVED - UPDATED. Item number 11 in the post WHEN SACRIFICING IS IMPLEMENTED BY DECREE - UPDATED describes some of the associated details of his passing and family.      
  2. When I first arrived at the DAEC, I made the mistake of telling co-worker who had engaged me in conversation, that I prayed before making my decisions because of the gravity involved as my responsibility was ensuring that equipment required to be relied upon to function for accident mitigation to protect the health and safety of the public was capable of doing so. Needless to say the worker reported what I thought was a private conversation in the "right" places and sometime thereafter all including me were subjected to KSF Management training, which "hallmark" included conducting one's pattern like all others around you that included the familiar "blindfold" test and then relying on others to "catch" you before falling. I was not impressed. Now I know that this entity that wanted me to act like all others around me was in effect "stealing my identity". How noble of them to request such of me, while stealing and transferring my identity, history, qualifications and accomplishments to "free loaders" in their ranks at all levels. It was at that point that my decision was made to let my actions "speak" for themselves and accompanying words from me were not needed; that is why afterwards I chose that course of action as a pattern for my life, actions primarily and few words, unless really necessary because words without corresponding actions are meaningless.
  3. Therefore, when faced with the decision about, which direction should be chosen when faced with information discovered to be accurate, that had been earlier discounted by me, as discussed in the post THE MAKING OF A GENUINE HERO (EDITED AND UPDATED)!, I chose to follow the path that had been ("second-nature") to me, rather than continue with other specified plans and then took the time to explain my decisions to others who may not have understood. However, recognizing that my actions carried certain implications various allowances were included to address those eventualities, hoping that any such individual involved would recognize the significance of my decision and realize that this was a course that could not be ignored, by me, and at the same time, inform those who need to be informed. 
The Outcome/Implications of Following These Standards
The offer of volunteer assistance, which is included in the post THE PREMISE BEHIND THE "FLAWED" LEGISLATION - UPDATEDDOES NOT represent a return to the previous services offering but generically addresses why this one time only offer was made as documented in the post and referenced elsewhere on the Pages of this Blog in an attempt to encourage one with the courage to do what's right for the cause of Lois and the rest of the "Chisholm family inclusive"though unpopular, as documented in the post HONORING GOD AND RESPECTING OTHERS PRACTICALLY - UPDATED.
The criteria outlined there (and summarized below) if carefully followed, will demonstrate that it's possible to be such a leader (of the Franklin/modified Regan - type mold, principled and courageous), even in today's "whatever works" environment!
Before embarking on any undertaking whether small or great an assessment should first be carried out to determine: 1) the type of attitude (or stamina) needed is available,  2) the type of self correction measures, which are personally required that can only be discovered by self introspection, 3) if consideration essential especially for the cause of others is an available characteristic, 4) that the type of knowledge needed for application to avoid the tendency to resort to expedient decision-making, is available and 5) to determine if possession of the proper leadership qualities needed to inspire is a characteristic. This approach does not indicate that the Proprietorship's is providing political services as a business offering previously dropped, this position has not been reversed, but instead represented the specific ONE-TIME only conditions under, which voluntary assistance (would have been provided in that specific case), should such a courageous step forward to champion the cause of Lois Bruno of the "Chisholm family inclusive" had been embarked on successfully, consistent with the criterion in the The Conclusion section post  THE COST OF VOLUNTEERING - EDITED AND UPDATED .


Conclusion:
If, a drilling exploration is needed (such as is used to find crude oil (as previously indicated) - see the post HOW REAL SUCCESS IS ACHIEVED), to determine whether or not standards of operation were and are included in the above operating style, then clearly the methods employed were and are not effective in demonstrating a consistent pattern, that includes, courage, sound decision-making and thoughtfulness as opposed to callous actions for others. If these characteristics are clearly evident, only then can it be truly stated that one's actions were conducted honorably and an old fashioned duel wasn't needed to demonstrate such as was considered the only method to demonstrate "honor" in earlier centuries, that only took into account the "gun toting/marksmanship" capabilities of the participants. However, more difficult to achieve, is a consistent pattern over the course of one's life that includes the above character traits. Therefore, to proceed honorably, is quite an undertaking that is why God's Commandments involve honoring Him (God) primarily (nos. 1 - 3 found in the Biblical book of Deuteronomy 5: 6-11) and then as an outcome of this first condition demonstrating respect for others, which is the primary focus of the second part (nos. 4 - 10 found in Deuteronomy 5:12-21) of His ten Commandments.  
In the final analysis, great care must be exercised when we use words that hold very significant concepts in their usage because it may take in some instances, a lifetime of actions consistently to convey what is truly intended, as is required in the case of understanding (as documented in the post WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING - INSTRUMENTS FOR "LIFE"), instead of a single "cruel" action that some societies employ and ascribe such as "honor" killings, etc., because the taking of life can never be associated with anything honorable as employed in our estimating. As a result, honor will be demonstrated clearly, without great exploratory undertakings when the above criteria even in the case of an individual facing an uphill task of reconciling actions (including words previously spoken without regard for the consequences of their impact, and now brought to the realization of how significant such be when spoken previously without regard for the eventual overall impact); that would require the first step towards acting honorably. This would then require consistently remaining "true" to this stated objective for any individual so inclined to implement. However, it must be emphasized that for any other than God's chosen, this course of action is not really possible as a part of daily living practically, since showing respect for others is a natural byproduct of the former, (namely, honoring God). However, only God Himself can help us to achieve this eventuality because on our own our best efforts are meaningless because the understanding and knowledge required can only come through Him. The final paragraph of the (**Footnote) from the post THE MAKING OF A "GENUINE" HERO (EDITED AND UPDATED)! provides a small glimpse of how allowing God to lead in one's daily life is implemented practically, which does NOT include "showy" acts for the cameras, pilgrimages or even attending sessions of any type but doing what's right when it's not popular privately to start the long process of demonstrating love for an understanding God who will lead in ways to help address those activities in need of reconciling, (just as the subject of understanding as discussed in the previously referenced post WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING - INSTRUMENTS FOR "LIFE", requires the journey of a lifetime and many days (promised) to continually work towards this achieving this attribute as indicated in the above post); then and only then can it be truly stated that following such a course is best, especially if it's demonstrated in the course of one's conduct, consistently, because anything else is expediency!

WISDOM, UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEDGE – INSTRUMENTS FOR “LIFE” - (UPDATED 6/22/2013 AND AMENDED 6/11 & 6/13/2013 as well as 1/17 & 1/19/2014)

Introduction:
While two of these qualities have been examined previously on the pages of this Blog, (for example in the post of the title WHAT REALLY IS UNDERSTANDING (EDITED)? they have not been collectively examined. As a result, this description is an effort to examine these traits from a spiritual perspective for any valuable insight they may possess for our lives, by examining the Biblical book pf Proverbs* (see footnote) and chapter 9. This book is examined in two parts, the first ten (10) chapters for their focus on these spiritual qualities and the final seven (7) verses, which focus on the benefits that come from possessing these qualities as well as the final outcome for those who show disregard for such qualities, please follow.

These are the Details of Importance:

In the Biblical book of Proverbs 9, the focus is clearly on this subject, which starts by introducing in verse 1) the concept of wisdom as represented by a soundly constructed residence containing not one, two, three, four, five, or even six, but seven pillars (or foundations). When seven is used in scripture it implies perfection, such as in the book Ecclesiastes 11:2, which states that when its in our ability to give, we should give (what’s ours to give), liberally to “seven” (7) and also to eight (8), “for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth, because when “real instead of orchestrated/distressed conditions” type difficulty arises, those who have “invested” in this manner will be taken care of. Therefore, the house built with seven (7) foundations, implies a very soundly built structure. Verse 2) goes on to point out that the residents of a “perfectly” built house represents those who lives are centered on spiritual matters, (described in terms of having a “furnished table”. Verse 3) indicates that those lacking in wisdom have themselves to blame because its available to anyone who seeks it, as previously pointed out in the referenced post “WHAT REALLY IS UNDERSTANDING (EDITED)?”, by indicating in verse 4) that whoever admits their need for “insight” (the “simple”) and seeks it (“turn in hither”); as a result of having sought and obtained wisdom (or “insight” and as described on the pages of this Blog, the "alternate view" as documented in the post IMPLEMENTING THE ALTERNATE VIEW PRACTICALLY) and then desire understanding (“clarity”) have to take action (“turn hither”) to attain it. Verse 5) provides instructions about the second part of the process required to be carried out  in order for understanding to be gained, namely, building one’s life with its focus on spiritual matters, (described in terms of “bread”). Verse 6) on the other hand points out that this focus will be successful when non-spiritual matters are set aside (or discarded), to gain the true benefits of understanding, indicting that action on our part is essential because a journey is involved as well as the fact it’s a continuous process, which requires constant vigilance to ensure that non-spiritual matters don’t be allowed to “hinder” the journey embarked upon. Verses 7 and 8) reminds us how futile it is to attempt to instruct those who are indifferent regarding spiritual matters because it will result in needless conflict with such types as oppose to the type of individual who has sought and obtained wisdom who will welcome such as continuous instruction as well as constructive criticism (or one of God's chosen and/or those considered to be part of ISRAEL). While verse 9) goes on to emphasize who has gained wisdom and is offered additional instruction will become even wiser just as teaching a just individual results in increase learning. Verse 10) clearly reminds us where the inception of wisdom begins, namely with respect for God, and only at this point is the concept of knowledge is introduced, as follows: “knowledge of the HOLY is understanding”. This without doubt implies why many lack understanding of the condition, plight and circumstances of others and anything else for that matter, because it implies that deep awareness of spiritual matters leads to understanding (as the call in verse 5 for rebuilding one's life around such, depicted). 
The emphasis in verse 10 on the word HOLY instead of just spiritual matters is an indication as to why so very few find gain understanding, namely because of the high price involved in achieving it. This is due to the fact that it is being equated with the knowledge of divine perfectionsince it all takes place under wisdom's structure. The Book of Revelation in chapter 15:4 points out that “who shall not fear Thee, o, Lord, and glorify thy name? For only thou art HOLY, for all nations shall come and worship before Thee, for thy judgments are made manifest.” In summary, verse 10 states that a) RESPECT FOR GOD IS THE INCEPTION OF WISDOM and b) KNOWLEDGE OF THE DIVINELY PERFECT (OR HOLY) ONE IS UNDERSTANDING.


The Outlook and Potential Possibilities:
The remainder of the chapter emphasizes the benefits and difficulties that result from possessing wisdom and knowledge as well as the continuous journey that is required in order to attain understanding because perfection is involved and since none of us are perfect a continuous “journey” is involved is striving for the attribute of understanding. Verse 11 states that these select individuals who have gained these very highly prized qualities are promised multiple (or many) days in, which to live out the years of their lives. Verse 12) indicates that those who are in possession of these three (3) critical instruments are in turn expected to inform others, because those who receive much spiritually are responsible for sharing such as received with others unlike those with no interest in spiritual matters, (which should be a tenet to live by for those also with resources “a plenty” as well but sadly such types hoard and even take from others with less than they do to brandish their accumulated possessions to others). Verse 13) compares these latter types to a harlot (or one involved in man’s oldest profession), who goes out of her (or his) way to attract attention to herself (or himself) at every opportunity, as verses 14 & 15) point out by sitting in the doorway to attract as well as in the seats in the high places of the city (again to attract). Finally verses 16 - 18) point out the end point for those who choose not to live their lives with a focus on spiritual matters; death and destruction.
Clearly, this outline if followed demonstrates why the attributes; wisdom, knowledge and understanding are described as instruments for “life”, namely due to the fact that these apparently simple but intrinsically profound traits hold the keys to truly eventful lives because they NOT ONLY provide us with the proper (or perfect) balance required for hopefulmeaningful, plentiful, purposeful, thankful, thoughtful and successful living BUT ALSO due to the fact that in the Biblical book of Proverbs chapter 3, verse 13 the state of being "happy" is attributed to the man who findeth wisdom and him that getteth understanding. Verse 14, goes on to point out that as an attribute, understanding is better than silver and even the possessing of fine gold. Verse 15, equates understanding with a female first of all and then goes on to point out that "she" (understandingis more precious than rubies and all the things that can be desired can't be compared to her (understanding). Verses 16 - 18, state that: 1) length of days are in her (understanding) right hand, 2) riches and honour are in her left hand, 3) her (understanding) ways are ways of pleasantness, 4) all her (understanding) paths are peace, 5) she (understanding) is a tree of life to those them that lay hold upon her (understanding), 6) happy is every one that retaineth her (understanding). Verse 19, points out that GOD by WISDOM founded the earth; by UNDERSTANDING he established the heavens. Finally, verse 20 points out that by His KNOWLEDGE the depths are broken up and the clouds drop down dew.  

The Finale:
The central fact relates to the continuousjourneyinvolved in gaining the true benefits of an understanding perspective, centered on spiritual matters that results in the multiplying of our days in, which to live out the years of our lives in the continuous pursuit of understanding (because none of us are perfect, period) and that knowledge of the HOLY ONE (who alone is divinely perfect) helps us achieve our objectives when we rely on Him. The unique thing that has been introduced is the comparison of the "prized" attribute of understanding to a female and not just any female but a "virtuous" (or wise) female as Proverbs 12:4 points out. The acquisition of these attributes are also being being compared here to a continuous journey to find a "virtuous" female, who is a "crown" to her husband. This very, very, very rare achievement is introduced to demonstrate how challenging this task is because the impossibility of finding such a companion is compared to the difficulties of finding the most treasured of these attributes, through, which the heavens were established, underscoring the rarity of achieving success in the task but if accomplished, would bring much spiritual gratification including added "days" (or long life) to the individual, clearly highlighting why these attributes are depicted as instruments for "life". The closest we can comprehend to what He is instructing us here, is what the Biblical book of Genesis in chapter 5 described about those who lived on earth initially, whose years ranged from 365 years for Enoch, who is stated to have "walked with God" for 365 years, who in turn took him and he never saw death, to Methuselah who lived for 969 years and died; and even these aren't described as possessing understanding, with the closest who came to possessing this quality being Enoch, who honoured God in his "life" and then it can only be concluded that because of his father's example, Mathuselah followed in the example of the type of life his father, Enoch lived and he was blessed with the longest life of any Biblical character. What an example and testament to the challenge ahead indeed, but at the same time God has made us aware of, (as He does not hide anything from us). He then provided us with those initial examples to symbolically depict to us what long days could be comprised of, which only goes to show the extent to. which He cares about us even in the midst of the overwhelming circumstances that confront us, if we permit Him to direct the innermost details of our lives, in all fairness.  
 
Background To The Conclusion:
While understanding specifically has been Biblically compared to a very rare female of unmatched qualities as outlined in Proverbs chapter 3, verses 13 - 19, and requires the journey of many days to obtain because divine perfection is involved in this attribute; however, even though it was previously pointed out that such an individual is not likely to be found because of the unusual qualities such an individual needed to possess, a glimpse is provided into the type of female who comparatively comes close to being considered such as defined in Proverbs chapter 31: where verse 10, points out “Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.” Verse 11, goes on to state “The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.” Verse 12, points out, “She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.” Verse 13 states, “She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.” Verse 14 points out, “She is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar.” Verse 15 also states, “She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.” Verse 16 points out, “She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.” Verse 17 states, “She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.” Verse 18 points out, “She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.” Verse 19, goes on to state, “She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.” Verse 20 describes how “She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. Verse 21, points out, “She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothe with scarlet.” Verse 22 states, “She maketh coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.” Verse 23, points out, “Her husband is known in the gates, when he siteth among the elders of the land.” Verse 25 points out, “Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.” Verse 26 states, “She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.” Verse 27 emphasizes that, “She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.” Verse 28 points out, “Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” Verse 29 states, “Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excelleth them all.” In summary, verse 30 points out, “Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that fareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Finally, verse 31 makes it clear to, “Give her the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.” 

Conclusion/Outcome:
This glimpse into what type of qualities this rare female would possess to be comparative with understanding indeed, such an individual, would be the “picture of perfection” and while the likelihood of finding such an ideal individual would be very, very, very remote, the mere fact that the description is given is an indication that it’s not completely impossible as nothing entrusted to Him ever is even though extremely difficult and reliance on His direction will never fail if the acquisition of understanding complemented with a companion of such unusual qualities is to be the object of an individual’s life, along with the added blessing of such a rare individual is His will for the individual who attains the unusual but "prized" attribute of understanding, only the divinely perfect ONE could make what’s impossible for us to achieve a definitely possible attainment, since for Him nothing is unachievable, He assures us (His chosen) of that, according to His will.            
     

* Footnote:
While this Biblical Book is beiing quoted here to gain a glimpse into what is remotely involved in this complex subject, care must be exercised when attempting to use the information contained in its pages without proper direction, due to distortions included in this text over the years, to present what some woud like this subject to contain for lack of any meaningful relationship with the Creator of the universe, such that only divine guidance can help to unravel the many innacuraces contained here. However, for the purposes of this subject mattter, the point of reference is the fact that understanding in not possible without devine guidance, and His direction/instruction is also needed to demonstrate its application in the pursuit of knowledge

THE CONDITIONAL PRICE OF VOLUNTEERING - (UPDATED 5/13, 5/19, 5/25, 5/31, 6/24, 7/19 & 12/2/2013 as well as 1/17, 1/22, 1/23, 2/15 & 8/7/2014)!

THE OFFER TO PROVIDE VOLUNTARY ASSISTANCE TO ONE SHOULD SHE SEEK HIGHER ELECTIVE OFFICE, IS WITHDRAWN. HOWEVER, SEE THE POST THE QUESTION OF THE MONTH'S PREMISE - UPDATED FOR THE AVAILABILITY OF A SIMILAR, BUT GENERIC OFFER FOR THE CAUSE OF LOIS BRUNO OF THE "CHISHOLM FAMILY INCLUSIVE" WHO WAS SUBJECTED TO THE SAME TYPE OF TREATMENT AS ONE LABELED A "TERRORIST" AS DOCUMENTED IN THE CONCLUSION SECTION OF THE POST  WHAT DOES TREATING OTHERS AS PROPERTY AND THE LOTTERY HAVE IN COMMON - UPDATED AND AMENDED?



This is really a restating of various comments from the COMMENTS Page, uniquely combined for the emphasis they hold and compiled in follow-up to the post THE COST OF VOLUNTEERING (EDITED & UPDATED), to serve as a reminder that my offer to "volunteer" was always intended to be conditional, because I have never chosen to follow expedient decision-making causes and would never participate in any such activities. The applicable criteria are documented in various posts, shown below as follows:

Here are the Points of Interest:
  1. comment # 1 from 4/21/2013 - "The approach by individuals towards any situation is largely based on their experiences; how any situation is handled will be governed by those unique experiences that have shaped their lives, which includes me as well as it is true for all individuals. Therefore, when confronted with any scenario, the manner in, which it is handled will be as a direct result of each individual's unique "makeup". An individual who is accustomed to handling matters by a certain instinctive pattern, (for ex. thuggish behavior will NOT suddenly make a 180 degree turn and handle an issue in a Mother Theresa approach). The difference between my approach now versus then has been documented in all fairness in the second paragraph of the post THE OUTSPOKEN PEN PAL WHO BECAME A FRIEND (EDITED W/INSERTS - UPDATED/AMENDED); and if its implications are "carefully understood" will greatly assist in the realization of many things alluded to along the way, between then and now in for example the final paragraph of The Finale/Outcome section of the post THE COST OF VOLUNTEERING (EDITED & UPDATED). In addition, this subject matter is of such importance that further clarification and discussion is provided on this issue in the post THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GOD'S LAW AND MAN'S;
  2. comment # 2 from 4/24/2013 - "I do believe in the eventual triumph of "good over evil" and look forward to progress being made on the specific ventures being undertaken to address the new services offering and all various tasks documented in the post THE COST OF VOLUNTEERING (EDITED & UPDATED) and in those associated applicable individuals so deserving in the various affairs of the Proprietorship in need of addressing going forward in these challenging times!!!";
  3. as well as comment # 1 from 4/23/2013, which includes - "It is because of my (limited) "understanding" and consideration of the issues involved that the offer regarding the Category of Compliance et al's cause exists as documented in comment # 2 from 4/20/2013 on COMMENTS Page; because in this regard, in my opinion assistance to a most deserving situation can be provided were greater appreciation in the long run will be a most fitting outcome for those involved once the cause of others from my perspective are given their due and those of myself (or me) personally are set aside. If viewed from this point-of-view hopefully it will be seen in a different light!". THIS OPTION IS MODIFIED BY # 9 BELOW.                                                        
  4. comment # 1 from 4/29/2013 - "This is not a difficult, situation, as the pathway forward has already been provided in the form of directions intentionally included in various comments, and required to be considered together, such as first; comment # 1 from 4/17/2013 on the COMMENTS Page and restated here for convenience, which state: "Carefully follow the directions/instructions in the post  TIME FOR PAYMENT IS NOW, MR. BUFFETT (EDITED AND UPDATED W/INSTRUCTIONS/AMENDED); and then wait for my follow-up responses/acknowledgements indicated (to avoid duplicity) as well and the pathway to "FREEDOM FOR ALL" will be readily made available!" - This scenario will eliminate the same "hobbled" concern at issue. Secondly, before carrying out the above instructions be very mindful that responses to specific questions as indicated in comment # 2 from 4/17/2013 and reinforced in comment # 1 from 4/26/2013 all on COMMENTS Page are essential for the intended purpose described. Next, the offer as provided and documented in comment # 2 from 4/20/2013 on the COMMENTS Page REMAINS as long as is needed for proper decision-making.
  5. Finally the criteria regarding instituting measures to eliminate the tendency to resort to Expedient Decision-Making in comment # 2 from 4/17/2013 on the COMMENTS  Page are also an integral part of the effort!".
  6. comment # 1 on this post THE COST OF VOLUNTEERING (EDITED & UPDATED) as well as from 4/20/2013 on the COMMENTS Page - "My decision to withdraw the Proprietorship from political and other services offering was not an easy one and was given much consideration as documented in the Services Announcement of February 1, 2013 and the Services Decision Update of April 7, 2013, which further described the thoughtfulness in my decision-making regarding the non-political services as documented on the CONDUCT OF BUSINESS Page. The discovery in the end of the events surrounding the “Chisholm Family Inclusive” further helped me to realize that my efforts could NOT in my opinion make any impact (or CHANGE) in the type of environment where those developments depicted in the post “IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN THE TARNISHINGS OF A FORMER TOP PROSECUTOR AND THE POWERFUL WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN (UPDATED)?”,  took place and it was treated as if nothing abhorrent and distasteful had occurred and underscored by the election year debate stop in Hempstead enacted by those who in the opinion of this Blogger, thought that this was a fitting way to “move on” (or cover-up) what obviously took place. Out of respect for and against the backdrop those lives and accomplishments of those treated with such disrespect, was the decision made to focus mainly on one specific area of the services offering. Furthermore, it is hoped that any individual who may have been impacted by these changes would be as understanding of the seriousness involved in this matter in, which those unconscionable types dictated how once very meaningful lives were cut off so callously for a very morally despicable cause in an atmosphere where it would appear that the less concern shown to others the more “successful” one can become and this is a path in, which I will always find very difficult to travel on in all fairness and I hope it (my decision) will be seen in this light by those with true concern for the cause of others. The basic point that must be faced here is the fact that the Hempstead debate election year cycle stop is a classic example of expedient as oppose to sound decision-making [see the post EXPEDIENT DECISION-MAKING, ALWAYS A MISTAKE (EDITED)] and the reality must be faced that it’s impossible to bring CHANGE to a structure, which at its core is based on expedient decision-making. What eventually will take place is that this structure will ultimately change anyone attempting to follow a different direction because all of its assets are inherently comprised and/or have become cemented around following such an outline for addressing issues!".
  7. As a POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE to # 3 above NOW REPLACED BY # 9 BELOW, the specific condition in comment # 2 from 5/13/2013 is offered if the potential for overlap and any other unintentional issues are created with the following - "As previously stated this is a matter of style versus substance, however, this lone alteration to my previous conditions will be made to address the main concern repeatedly raised in this regard, as follows: - To avoid the central concern as it appears to me, the offer will be limited to the subsidiaries ONLY, and in this way, the potential for the type of balance regarding proprietary issues will be removed. Therefore, instead of erecting "roadblocks" as previously stated, since the "VITAL" issues will be addressed more importantly, the prior "roadblock" will be eliminated. As a result, give those involved in the subsidiary only, a voice in the decision-making and let it rest there as previously indicated on various occasions. Having accepted the outcome of this approach, let us work together to adopt these recommendations regarding the subsidiaries and lend our collective strengths to the singular activity but collectively to the dual challenges involved in assisting in a very worthy cause, instead of attempting to tear down at every instance, and with this singular but collective focus on just this part, the potential for overlapping of the proprietary details will be removed for both efforts. Satisfaction will be obtained from witnessing the successes of the singular cause of the subsidiaries with new hope for a future previously without. This is a cause I am very much aware that care/concern exists on the part of an interested party and an offer from one who is continually working to determine the best possible solution under the circumstances from then to now with the conditions that presently exists as described in the post, THE MAKING OF A "GENUINE" HERO, (EDITED AND UPDATED)!, and have concluded that this will help address the greatest issues to the previous broadly focused solution offer, raised."
  8. Highlights the steps to pursue that would clearly demonstrate LEADERSHIP OF THE ADAPTABLE REGAN MOLD, (depicted below as needed for times comparable to what was faced by Franklin where a renewal was needed that Regan was able to galvanize the Nation around as a change in direction was needed, which he recognize and encouraged the nation to move in a different direction with new hope based on his boyhood's hero actions and this is where the adaptability is needed as the times are more generally consistent with those of the earlier renewal. However, the adaptable Regan mold can be skillfully utilized to address the needs required for these times as well. This eventuality is awaiting that "remarkable" individual uniquely prepared to follow in the adaptable Regan mold specifically suited for today's times to address the various issues involved in the approach for addressing a scenario in, which a main and one subsidiary is each in need of a different type of turn around (simultaneously, without impacting the specific needs involved included in the selected categorizing arrangement in step # 9 from the above referenced post), being followed for the "BIG PICTURE VIEW" (clarified in comment # 2 from 6/3/2013 on the COMMENTS Page and below); indicated as needed for achieving similar successes as required, in a reversal of methodology ultimately, (which includes a dynamic to a static method of approach with the chosen location being the static objective instead, for the obvious reasons, namely that a renewal is required similar to what was previously carried out and for such, one must go back to the original situation in principle as in an instance when a bad choice has been made and a repeated return to the starting point is brought about for starting over as outlined in the post WHAT IS YOUR FORK-IN-THE-ROAD SITUATION TODAY?).
  9. Comments #s 2 and 1 from 5/25/2013 respectively on the COMMENTS Page are included to address the final approach being pursued INSTEAD OF EITHER  # 3 OR # 6 ABOVE, as follows: 2) "In a situation where a turn around is needed and three almost totally independent functioning entities are involved, where the main business structure is in need of a turn around as well as one of the subsidiaries with the other subsidiaries being a healthy functioning entity, these have to be treated as three separate parts of one larger body. The healthy functioning part should be isolated from the other non-healthy subsidiary as far as practical and dealt with differently to avoid conflict developing between those associated with the non-healthy and the healthy functioning entities with respect to the turn around activities and even more so with those associated with the main structure and the healthy functioning subsidiary. The approach to at minimum separate the subsidiaries from the main structure is a start from, which progress can be worked out and eventually bring about more interaction very gradually when significant turn around progress has been implemented for the obvious reasons. This caveat, in conjunction with the previous approach documented in comment # 2 from 4/23/2013 on THIS Page (modified) should produce the desired outcome as long as the essential will exists for change in those associated with the main and its non-healthy functioning subsidiary and as a result, the structural approach previously outlined (ex. no involvement for some limited for others etc., modified as appropriate to address the different landscape as indicated above, should be workable). In addition, the approach outlined in comment # 1 for 5/25/2013 on the THIS Page in conjunction with this modification should form the basis for a desirable solution to effect the needed turn "arounds" and reach successful outcomes as appropriate and eventually pave the way forward to new beginnings for all."; 1) "The plan of action outlined can and will be implemented, with the "big picture" view previously defined for those deserving subsidiaries, in all fairness, in order that the vacant place awaiting the right individual as depicted in the post THE TWO GREATEST DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GOD'S LAW AND MAN'S can be occupied to implement the intended course of action as specifically outlined in the post THE CONDITIONAL PRICE OF VOLUNTEERING (UPDATED) as well as summarized in comment # 2 from 5/23/2013 and elsewhere on THIS Page with the applicable indicated ordered arrangements/steps carefully outlined to be followed in order to achieve success for times such as these, referenced in the post ADDENDUM TO THE CONDITIONAL PRICE OF VOLUNTEERING and in comment # 2 from 5/11/2013 on THIS for the specific ordered steps of the kind required in this situation."
The Implications/Outcome of these Scenarios
Nothing that has been stated has altered my approach because numbers necessarily do not translate to AUTHENTICITY, TRUTH, UNDERSTANDING AND SOUND DECISION-MAKING AS OPPOSE TO EXPEDIENT DECISION-MAKING. If those who follow the pathway of "whatever works" were supporting "credible" individuals instead of "free loaders" and "free loader-related" types, they would NOT be: 1) attempting to intimidate me to follow their cause, 2) electronically stealing my receipts and anything physically carried out to use as a means of attempting to demonstrate non-existent "legitimacy", which never lasts, using the methods documented in the post ELECTRONIC NETWORKING RECORDS FRAUD AN A SIGNIFICANT SCALE - UPDATED etc., 3) would not have to rely on unethical and/or thuggish practices, "whatever works" to obtain their outcomes as indicated in comment # 2 from the COMMENTS Page using their networking capability to prevent intuitions from carrying out their fiduciary responsibility and 4) would NOT have to resort to genocide to further their cause as depicted in the post IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN THE TARNISHINGS OF A FORMER TOP PROSECUTOR AND THE POWERFUL WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN (UPDATED)? 
My conditions/criteria for volunteering have not changed because of the behavior of others, who use "whatever works", methods to rule the day and others have chosen to fall in with them rather than make tough but sound decisions as oppose to the type of practices as depicted in the post EXPEDIENT DECISION-MAKING, ALWAYS A MISTAKE (EDITED). My cause, namely that of the “Chisholm Family Inclusive” as well as that identified in # 8 remains regardless of those who have chosen to side with those who have swept them under the "Hempstead, election year debate table", because this is unfairness at its worse by those who desire much from contributing in the end very, very little, namely, participating in man's oldest profession. 
 
Conclusion:
If this effort were easy, an outcome would have been followed long ago, my dear friend and devoted mother, Lois, (see photos # 2 & 3 from My Photographic Journey Page) who most likely discovered something she was not supposed to and paid the ultimate price, in a land she though she "really" knew, having visited it on so many occasions before, which I can attest to, for at least on one of such occasions, she stayed at my family, Chapel Street residence as my guest and on other occasion, with the “Chisholm Family Inclusive”, Barbados' extensions, etc, (which does not include either Brazant or Sobers ancestries). Whatever it was, which was so shocking, that others wanted it to remain covered-up, led to her demise, and the remainder of her extensions, including sisters, Frances and her four children (who probably had grand children), and Muna with her fiance, "nicknamed", Jazz as well as her Mother/step father and the others, inclusive. Who gave anyone the right to determine what end those former meaningful lives were useful for in support of some "high speed rail" and other "free loaders" cause and their useless, tactless, meaningless and purposeless existences. For my sister to end up raising Lois' son as her own until his "accidental" drowning must have been tragic, frightening and contemptuous on the part of some who cowardly follow expedient decision-making and think that such is a demonstration of true leadership, its not. Real leadership requires courage, of the type depicted by those highlighted in the series of posts on this Site, such as EXAMPLES OF COURAGE! in addition to A CLOSER LOOK AT AN UNUSUAL FORM OF EXEMPLIFIED COURAGE (EDITED AND UPDATED), just as real "love" requires making on occasion, tough decisions instead of face-saving decisions, to the detriment of all those reliant on such individuals for carrying out what is in their best interests, who when given the choice to make, chose expediency and then try to manipulate others to follow suite, because it was determined that such a path was in the "best" interest of some therefore, it must be what's best for all by decree and all this in a "free" society. How noble of "some" to preach and not practice their own exhorting on the perils of "dictatorial" type behavior. After all, if it cannot be shown by example, what good is it, in all fairness, because a "picture" (or actual example of some action in progress) as the saying goes is worth a thousand words


                  the word "...in..." should be "...a glimpse..."
                  For additional pages of this letter from my late dear friend, which
                  is an example of a picture of history in progress being worth many
                  more words than even those depicted see the post
 
The criteria documented here represents a compilation of the various applicable details commented on over time, which collectively represents the how the offer of volunteer assistance was intended to be represented and will be pursued in a manner that clearly outlines the unique approach needed for times such as these, as follows: 2) generic offer to assist those very worthy individuals in need of assisting, 3) specific offer to assist Category of Compliance, et als case specifically, 4) re-emphasizing of directions/instructions to be followed for payment of funds owed by Coke, 5) stressing importance of instituting recommended measures for avoiding reliance on expedient decision-making, 6) highlights the steps to pursue that would clearly demonstrate leadership of the Franklin mold and 7) another manner for restating # 3 above more clearly that zeroes in on the specific areas in need of addressing to ensure the most effective outcomes for the main/subsidiary turn-around emphasis required. These measures clearly outline the intended approach, namely, to assist the applicable party in some meaningful way, as a viable alternative, as indicated, addressing various implied details from then to now, appropriately.
