I won't be able to attend the General Assembly Tomorrow
שלום לכולם, לצערי מפאת מצבי הרפואי בימים אלה, לא אוכל לבוא לאסיפה הכללית מחר. אני עדיין מעודד את הנוכחים באסיפה ואלו שיתנו ייפוי כוח לבחור בי ו/או במועמדים האחרים לועדת הביקורת. כמו-כן, אני מאשר את הדוחות, ואין לי בעייה לשלוח בדואל את אלו שאני בוחר בהם במידה שזה אפשרי. בכבוד רב, שלומי פיש -- - Shlomi Fish http://www.shlomifish.org/ My Aphorisms - http://www.shlomifish.org/humour.html Chuck Norris can make the statement This statement is false a true one.

Re: Assembly tomorrow
Hi! I'd like to note that I'm running (again) for the comptrollers' committee. Don't take my word for it, but I believe this is also the case for Adir.

In general this is a pretty bad time for originizing a meeting, people are in miluim, some people are far away from home, and some just doesn't want to get to ta right now and leave their families far away. Anyhow since I won't be able to attend the meeting tomorrow, I will like to go to yadid state if possible in order not to ruin the majority needed. Eli, for those of us in the north traveling to Tel-Aviv for these meetings was never easy, and you're right that now it hasn't got easier for some of us, and some of our members are completely unavailable (drafter or refugees). But I don't think that's the issue. If I knew that today's meeting was going to be an important meeting, I would spend the 6 or so hours it will take me (include travel) for this important cause (yes, I see the Amuta as an important cause, even if some of us forgot why). BUT, looking at today's agenda, the most important part of which are elections with one candidate (Shlomi) for six positions (comptrollers and board), what's the point for me to come? Even if we do get quorum - and I seriously doubt that - what will we do - vote on the Amuta's dissolution? Vote on accepting the only 6 people who come as the new board and comptrollers? So unless someone can convince me otherwise, and people start nominating themselves for board, I doubt I will come to today's meeting :( -- Nadav Har'El| Sunday, Aug 6 2006, 12 Av 5766 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |Sign on a back of truck: Overtakers http://nadav.harel.org.il |beware, or you might meet the Undertaker - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Assembly tomorrow
האמת שאני כמעט שכחתי מהאספה היום אבל אני אגיע. אני קיבלתי על כך הודעה בדואר שזו הדרך הרשמית והחוקית להודיע על האסיפה. בעבר אמרתי שאני מוכן להבחר לוועד אבל לצערי עלי להסיר את מועמדותי. הסיבות לכך הן אישיות ולא טענות אלו או אחרות כלפי העמותה. חבל לי שאין מספיק מתנדבים לעמותה ואם היה לי זמן הייתי מתנדב כמו בעבר. אני מאד שמח שדותן התנדב. לדותן: עד כמה שידוע לי החלטה על מעמד של חבר מתבצעת על ידי חברי הועד ונאמרת בעפ. לאחר מכן (או לכל היותר במועד חידוש החברות) תקבל כרטיס חבר חדש בו רשום סטטוס חבר ולא סטטוס ידיד. -- אורי עידן Shlomi Fish wrote: Hi!

Assembly tomorrow
Hi, I have spent the last two weeks or so away from home, a sort of refugee. My first-class refugee camp did have Internet access, but not Hebrew support, so I was unable to read most of the traffic on this mailing list. When I came back to Haifa and read all the messages I missed, I was really surprised that there was no discussion about the assembly, which supposedly is TOMORROW, August 6th. Is this assembly still on? I don't see it mentioned in the Hamakor website. And most importantly, how come nobody (as far as I saw) nominated themselves for board and just one person (as far as I saw) nominated himself for comptroller? All the people who complained, and still complain, that the Amuta's board aren't doing enough, well, listen to this: You may be right. However, the fact that members do not bother to nominate themselves is NOT the board's fault - each of us (the memebers) are to blaim for not doing anything. People who care enough to actually do something themselves (and not just complain on a mailing list) can actually nominate themselves for board, and make a real difference in the Amuta. *YOU*, as a board memeber, can have almost full control on the directions that the Amuta will take over the next year. If there are not enough (3) candidates for board on these elections, I don't know what will happen. It might very well lead to the immediate dissolution of the Amuta. Is this really what we want to happen? Do we really have no use for the Amuta any more?? So, any candidates?

Personal Beef (was: Re: Assembly tomorrow)

Here it is the time to raise my personal beef. During the last year, I was considering several times taking more active part in directing Hamakor. At the time there were several arguments in this mailing list about future directions of Hamakor, and I participated and wrote my opinions. However, I was concerned about accessibility i.e. being able to FULLY participate in board discussions. My cash flow situation also did not permit me to fully finance the accessibility provisions needed by me (a notetaker or interpreter to accompany me to meetings). Another activity to which I did not volunteer due to concerns about accessibility (to committee discussions and in access to information) was leading the AP5 effort (an activity, which Shlomi Fish eventually took upon himself, and then I joined to help him). Few weeks ago there were heated arguments about accessibility of a movie to be produced from AP5, and I saw that several people won't support accessibility and making the effort to fully include hearing-impaired people, if it could hurt them in a non-trivial way; and that they would not accommodate my request for more effort toward including me in certain activities, even if I put in more effort to volunteer to benefit the entire community. [To be fair, I must note that I got also supporting E-mail; however it came from very few persons.] This caused me to feel like 2nd class citizen in the community. Accordingly, I decided to be 2nd class citizen all the way. So, I reduced my involvement in the community and in AP5 organization to the minimum required to meet my obligations to other people with disabilities. Among other things, I am now yadid rather than a voting member and I do not plan to come to the Assembly. --- Omer -- Perrin's Principle of Inclusion: The strength of any system is directly proportional to the power of the tools it provides for the general public.

Re: Personal Beef (was: Re: Assembly tomorrow)
What we need now are people who come up and say I nominate myself, not those explaining why they don't. We already have enough of those... But sadly, your explanations are based on false assumptions: On Sat, Aug 05, 2006, Omer Zak wrote about Personal Beef (was: Re: Assembly tomorrow): However, I was concerned about accessibility i.e. being able to FULLY participate in board discussions. My cash flow situation also did not This board, as well as the previous board, held almost 100% of their deliberations online, using email and IRC, and hardly ever held any phone calls or physical meetings (I think the number of physical meetings was exactly zero). Your hearing problem would not have mattered one iota when it comes to board discussions. Few weeks ago there were heated arguments about accessibility of a movie to be produced from AP5, and I saw that several people won't support Omer, you obviously disagree with the board's decisions in this matter. Now is not the time to rehash whether they made a correct or wrong decision - now is the time to stand up and say I would have made a better decision and to nominate yourself for board. As a board member (if the two others agree with you, of course) you would have had the power to make decisions, not just suggestions, regarding that movie that troubled you. [To be fair, I must note that I got also supporting E-mail; however it came from very few persons.] Anyone nominating themselves for board should be prepared: some of your decisions are not going to supported by 100% of the people. Since people don't tend to send mails saying I agree with you, but somehow love to send mails saying you're stupid, you should have done THIS instead, you're going to get a lot of nasty mail. Unfortunately the outgoing board got so much of that it became really disgusting. It seems that as the Amuta grows, dealing with professional complainers appears to come with the job of board member :( -- Nadav Har'El| Saturday, Aug 5 2006, 11 Av 5766 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |Those who beat their swords into http://nadav.harel.org.il |plowshares will plow for those who don't. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
