Some of today's top storiesA former Kern County prosecutor says supervisors at the District Attorney's Office ordered her not to wear skirts to work, even during Bakersfield's scorching summers, unless she also wore pantyhose.That's according to a federal lawsuit set for a scheduling conference next month. Nishi Dayal says she has fibromyalgia, a painful disorder that limits her mobility and prevents her from wearing stockings or certain footwear. After multiple reprimands for not wearing pantyhose, Dayal was demoted, according to the suit. She went from hearing felony cases in Bakersfield to being assigned misdemeanor cases in Delano. Four months later, she resigned, saying she was "exhausted by the ongoing discrimination." The D-A's dress code policy, which has been in place for at least three decades, requires women to wear pantyhose with dresses, skirt suits, and dress suits. Assistant District Attorney Joseph Kinzel released a statement, saying quote "We look forward to presenting a complete defense to these claims and ensuring that the truth prevails."The preliminary hearing for Alan Booth, the man who allegedly drove drunk when he backed into a crowd at the Bakersfield Christmas Parade, has been postponed to late May.

Welcome back friends! Besides our big adventure to LA, we had exciting news of our own. I was pretty sure that I was pregnant, so Thomas and I, were exceptionally happy. Since I hadn't gone to a doctor when I was pregnant with Naomi, I wasn't even considering a doctor visit to get a confirmation. Many of the women at the ranch also came from the “back to nature” lifestyle, where it was common to rely on a midwife's advice. My attitude towards pregnancy was pretty normal in our circles. I was fine, with waiting one more month, to be sure. Quite a few months before that, Thomas and I, had prayed together, asking the Lord to bless us with more children, so we felt confident that everything was okay. I had been feeling good, with not much morning sickness, which made it easy for me to continue with my job in the kitchen. Thomas and David, were making plans coordinating the cars needed, to drive up to Eureka on the coming Sunday. It was always a special outing for the day, and we were excited about the church gathering that we would be a part of. Once again, we were out on the road with our friends. It was a beautiful fall day, and the drive through the majestic Redwood Forest, was always impressive. Arriving in Eureka, we found a place to park near the Veterans Hall. We could see all the happy people filing up the steps and greeting each other. The mothers had their long dresses on, and many carried diaper bags, full of snacks and toys for the day. A lot of the men had their large Bibles in carry bags, hanging over their shoulders . Thomas and I, headed straight in, with hopes of finding seats near the front, where he could see the musicians. There was a great sense of enthusiasm amongst us,, because of our recent experiences at the outreach in Los Angeles. When the music began, Thomas and I, always felt lifted up in our spirits. We imagined ourselves entering the throne room of God, with our brothers and sisters, singing with our whole hearts. https://youtu.be/7tOrDC5ICV4 "Clap your Hands" https://youtu.be/vdjV6Tt7oyM "Thy Loving Kindness is better than life" Above are the links to the songs I referred to! They were both written in the early 70s! Maybe you would like to sing along!

ALWAYS FAITHFUL In August of 2021, just days shy of the 20th anniversary of 9/11, America ended its longest war. The speed of the Afghanistan's fall was so stunning that thousands of Afghan citizens who had helped American forces over the course of two decades—and had been promised visas in return—were suddenly stranded, in extreme, imminent danger. As the world watched the shocking scenes of desperation at the Kabul airport in the final two weeks of August, Maj. Tom Schueman fought—both behind the scenes and through a social media campaign—to get his friend and former Afghan interpreter, Zak, out of Afghanistan before he and his family were discovered by the Taliban.

50: Elevating A Cause Through Nonprofit Leadership (Curtis Drafton)SUMMARYNot many nonprofit leaders have actually experienced the personal and professional challenges facing the individuals their organization serves. After two Army tours in the Middle East left him injured, Curtis Drafton then had to overcome the tragic loss of his fiancé to cancer. In his words, he was “mentally broken and confused,” but also realized he was not alone in his struggle. Few would have blamed him for taking years to get his life and career in order, but Curtis realized many of the challenges he faced were not dissimilar from thousands of other veterans who had selflessly served this country. From that point on, Curtis found his calling, and helped found the U.S. Veterans Hall of Fame. In episode #50 of the Path Podcast, Curtis and I had a great conversation in which he shares practical insight for nonprofit leaders trying to turn a cause into a successful organization. What resources were most helpful to Curtis? How did he approach fundraising on a local, regional and national level? How did he identify the volunteers, partners, and resources necessary to make the concept of a Hall of Fame much more than a building? Answers to these questions and much more in this episode! ABOUT CURTISAfter an all-state high school track and field career in Ohio, Curtis enrolled at Columbus State Community College with dreams of transferring to Ohio State and eventually training for the Olympics. Two nagging knee injuries ended his athletic career, however, and an enlistment in the Army followed. After getting his degree in kinesiology, he completed a four-year military contract, and then took a year to care for his ailing fiancé who was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia. After she passed away, he re-enlisted for an additional two-year commitment. Following his military service, he took on several positions in corporate America, bringing passion to each, but not finding the calling he was looking for. He then launched a volunteer rescue team to help veterans affected by natural disasters, and knew he had found his purpose. It was then he also became a Chaplain, and heard God’s calling for the U.S. Veterans Hall of Fame. Curtis is also a Minister on staff at Uplift Christian Ministries in Charlotte, NC, a collegiate athletics mentor, a veterans' needs advocate, a Search & Rescue Team Leader and an avid gardener.EPISODE TOPICS & RESOURCESJamel Jackson’s book The Value of RelationshipsMark Batterson’s book In a Pit With a Lion on a Snowy Day
