First and foremost, we communicate to Shane and Josh that they are not alone...we hold them in our thoughts and hearts...we do what each can right here, right now to bring about their prompt release...
Come in body, mind, and/or spirit to the UN Friday 7/29 at noon to support our request to Iranian government: free our innocent global citizens now.

Theatre Festival: Call-out for Proposals ...come brainstorm on The Green
Being prepared!
This autumn, Palladio International hosts our second annual FAMILY THEATRE FESTIVAL in the Sheep Meadow at Central Park. Our first festival drew thousands -from as far north as the Adironack's, east from The Points (Orient and Montauk), west from the Delaware Water Gap, and as far south as Fredericksberg! We are preparing for our 2011 fest by doubling the theatre spots, platforms, and stages available to bring our theme to life: Hosting Habitual Happiness with Our Kids! ... What really helps when restructuring our less-than-best habits?
Proposal Writing Groups will flow from our first round of Brainstorm Groups (See Announcements for locations.). Skit limit: five minutes. Interactive Family Theatre: fifteen minutes. Number of performers: 1-3: SPOT, 4-10: Platform, 10+: Stage.
Submit as many skits or interactive theatre proposals as you wish, on as many relevant topics desired. Brainstorm Groups (to develop the issues, problems, and solutions) will gather during the third week of July (See Pacing Calendar 2011) in four locations on the Central Park Campus. Forums then are accessible, without crosstown traffic, to those traveling from four directions in the city and beyond. However, if you don't mind crossing town -or you're enjoying a weekend holiday of public transportation in the city -open seating is available at all four locations.
Palladio's sophomore class crafted the "focus teasers" below. Teasers help us"activate" memory banks, expanding access to experience relevant to this year's festival topic: Hosting Habitual Happiness with Our Kids...What really helps when restructuring our less-than-best habits?
1. Have you ever reached "The Wits End" with a youngster's behavior patterns?
2. Have you ever made a "big deal" out of an incident ... sitting kids down while laying out the law, emphasizing which new ways must replace the old, reminding everyone that tomorrow will be a new day ...only to find your own monitoring skills fell short very next day?
3. How often do you find yourself in your old pattern of overlooking our kids' needs because of a sundry reasons?
4. How often do we feel prepared to provide consistent Necessary And Sufficient Adult Follow-through (NASAF): future-pacing needed progress, situational prompting, specific guidance, modeling, supervising, reinforcing, celebrating?
5. Can you explain each of the steps of NASAF to your Global Parent partner right here? right now?
6. Are you up-to-date with Global Parent Research on habit reciprocity between adults and children?
7. How many reports (Lime Green and Autumn Gold list below) have you discussed in your monthly Research Support Circle?
HUMAN HABITS ... beyond the training needs of our four-legged friends
HAPPINESS HABITS ...for parents AND kids
WHEN KIDS HAVE HABITUATED
ADULT HABITS FIRST ... or "Get it in gear Turkey!"
SECURING OUR HABITAT FOR PROSPEROUS HABITUAL PERFORMANCE
TOP SECURITY: GETTING IN THE HABIT
HELPING NEW HABITS TAKE ROOT
FERTILE SOIL LESSENS TOIL
KIDS DO AS WE DO, NOT AS WE SAY
THE KISS PRINCIPLE ... AVOID ADULT LIP SERVICE
OUR HABIT AT HUMANITY
PEACE LIGHTING! (WHEN HABITS BECOME AUTOMATIC...CELEBRATE!)
Please bring your own chairs, blankets, refreshment and "refuse" bags. Naturally, all of our consciousness-raising groups gather in "Litter-free Zones." (Olmstead Ambassadors will be circulating from Upper School Armory with spare plastic bags for families to cart any and all refuse homeward later.) Please catch our ambassadors practicing newly learned civic skills and presentation styles. Olmstead Ambassadors will be wearing in their lime green tees, sporting the selected LZ slogan: "You can take it with you!"
