Weaving a Story
Look closely enough at Sovanchan Sorn's artwork and aspects of her Cambodian family's background can be found in every thread, in every fiber that has been woven together to tell a story. Their story. Of the killing. The fear. The hiding. The separation. Their bond.
It's Sorn's story, too, one told through her work in Long Beach State University's Fiber Arts program. It's a tale that starts with her grandparents, who escaped the Khmer Rouge and a Thailand concentration camp, and eventually moved to the United States, settling in the Cambodian neighborhoods of Long Beach.
Sorn knows many families in Long Beach who suffered the same terrifying fate under the brutal Khmer Rouge regime in the 1970s. The Khmer Rouge killed an estimated 2 million people from 1974-79, and separated families. The Communist regime also abolished mainstays such as money, free markets, normal schooling, religious practices, and traditional Khmer culture.
Sorn said she wants to help heal those still affected by the atrocities through Cambodian art.
"During the war, people were killed and it (regime) not only killed people, it also killed education and the arts and the music. It wiped out our culture," she said. "So, me doing the work I do now, I'm hoping it can help define what Cambodian art is today."
One of Sorn's woven pieces recently hung in the University Art Museum, a double-woven silk-and-cotton piece illuminated by LED lights. She based the idea on the life cycle of a silk worm.
"The cocoon, the chrysalis. I think about my family and their life cycle and how we can break out of this together and heal," Sorn said.
Sorn produced another piece made of copper and mono-filament that projects shadows as it spins. Voices of her grandmother, mother and two aunts emanate from overhead, reliving their days in Cambodia. She interviewed her family about their life in Cambodia for her senior project before graduating in May with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts degree.
"It's abstract and I'm sure people find it hard to understand how it correlates to my family's struggles," said Sorn, adding that the materials used represent both strength and fragility.
Sorn's talent emerged early in her crayon drawings as a young child. It blossomed in high school as she turned to ceramics and decided art was her future. Her family, however, didn't see the value in pretty pictures and statues.
"I don't think they could really understand or grasp (going to college) unless you were a doctor, a nurse or teacher or lawyer," she said. "That's all they knew that people went to school for.
"Anytime they share (the story of) me going to college with a family friend, they say 'Sovachan goes to school to learn drawing and painting. That's all she knows how to do – crayons and paint.'"
While Sorn hopes to break through the barriers within her family and educate her family on western society, she doesn't want to lose her cultural DNA. Already, she has lost some of her ability to speak in her native Khmer language; she didn't learn English until she attended kindergarten.
"Khmer was my first language, but now I find myself slowly forgetting and I can't do that. I can't," Sorn said. "I don't want to lose that. Our culture is so beautiful and I feel being in America, and living in a western society, we can lose sight of that."

So after looking around and considering price, quality, specs and rear tire clearance, I am thinking that a Niner One 9 is the best candidate to replace my existing SS frame.
I can't really justify x2 the cost for a carbon frame for a non-significant (to me) weight reduction.
But being an open-minded kinda guy, I like to hear you all talk me out of this choice. What say you?
BTW, I am a bigger guy (6', +200lbs) who rides all kinds of trails on the SS unless they are relentlessly rocky. I only race occasionally.

Drivers moving west across Interstate 80 into Iowa experience the first undulations in terrain felt since Pennsylvania.
At night, numbed from hours on the road, its easy to confuse the sensation with flying.
Less than ten miles after crossing the Mississippi River — which marks the border between Illinois and Iowa — a red sign along the highway owns the dark abyss of a Midwestern horizon.
"Iowa 80" it says, and it's the world's largest truck stop.
It's also an unexpected vision into a subculture unknown to most, but familiar to the particular kind of people that for their living pull things across a very, very big country.

Below is the Fox News graphic compiling "everyone and everything" Madam Hillary has blamed for her loss to Donald Trump. Even this list may not be complete. Implicit in Clinton's latest recitation is the Electoral College factor (as Shannen Coffin pointed out to me this afternoon). I posted Shannen's list here. The Fox News Insider article that is a companion to the tweet below is posted here.

Nicki Minaj will join American Idol next season as a judge, reports Us Weekly. Sources say the rapper has "a few more slight things to sign off on" but is "100 percent confirmed to judge" the show. Fox, which airs American Idol, declined to comment when contacted by Us.
Minaj joins Mariah Carey on the judges' panel after Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler stepped down after last season. There's been talk that Randy Jackson will move into a "mentoring" role, leaving one more judge spot open for next season. Nick Jonas has confirmed he is under consideration for the gig, and sources say Pharrell Williams is also up for the spot. Charlie Sheen has also expressed interest in being a judge on the show.
Minaj canceled a planned performance at the V Festival in England last weekend, citing strained vocal cords.

As Wednesday and my initial "full cuckold" meeting with Paul draws near, it's on my mind nearly all the time. You all know about the anxiety i feel and even though two face-to-face meetings with Paul have helped tremendously, i still experience it.
It won't be the first time that i've been dressed in front of a man before, nor will it be the first time that i'm a man's submissive. i've played that role before. But this is different. Very different. With Jake it was definitely a role i played. With Paul, it's not just a role. It's been carefully incorporated into our lifestyle. i've also never experienced entering into something like this, especially the way it was done with the establishment and acceptance of Paul's rules.
Though we've met and talked, and our second meeting was far more comfortable than the first, Wednesday will be different. i've got a little more than 48 hours to think about it. Butterflies in my stomach? More like angry birds flying around looking for a way out?
My constant reflections about my anxiety and such must be "getting old" to some of you, or maybe even all of you. i don't blame you. However at the same time it's elicited some very welcome words of support either through your comments or personal emails to me. i'm incredibly grateful to everyone, even those of you who just read the blog.
One question that's always on my mind about Wednesday is what Diane and Paul will make me wear, if anything at all? Exactly how "sissy" will they want me to be? It ranks right up there with just how much they will want me involved with them. My only prior experience with Diane and Brian didn't go that great because Brian didn't seem to get the whole cuckolding thing. Paul, under the fine tutelage of Diane, does.
What will i be wearing for that first "cuckold meeting" with Paul? Will Diane make that decision? Will it be the both of them? How humiliating will it be? i feel humiliated yet aroused just thinking about it now.
One of my loyal readers, lill jo or Jo Bradford, who happens to be a very, very talented artist, sent me a beautiful sketch of just what my first cuckold meeting with Paul might look like. She calls it "Sissy terri meets Paul."
First, i have to say that i'm incredibly flattered the lill jo would take the time to create this piece for me. Thank you sooooo much Jo. You have no idea how much it means to me.
Second, i have to say that i'm amazed and impressed by how well the sketch seems to capture the moment i've been fretting about for so long! Though we never talked about it, Jo's sketch was created simply by what she read here on these pages.
The picture illustrates Paul and Diane in casual embrace, apparently pleased by how effectively they've feminized their sissy cuckold. The cuckold, sissy terri, stands demurely in front of them with her head submissively tilted downward to avoid eye contact. she's dressed in a pink babydoll dress that's short enough to reveal the bottom of her panties, a pretty bow in her hair and some heels of perfect height. Everything is in pink, the sissy's favorite color! Amazingly, Jo captures this sissy's favorite things in this one sketch!
Who knows what i'll be wearing over my chastity belt on Wednesday? Diane and Paul probably haven't even decided yet. But whatever it is (or isn't) Jo's art certainly captures the powerful sissy emotions and anxiety i'm feeling now, and will no doubt experience on Wednesday!

by the Latino Youth Leadership Council of LAYC
With a foreword by Newbery Medal-winning author Meg Medina
Learn more about the project here.
During a time of heated immigration debate and unrest, this book is an opportunity to hear directly from youth who are often in the headlines but whose stories don't get told in full. Sixteen young people from the Latin American Youth Center (LAYC) in Washington, D.C. came together to tell their own stories of immigration and transformation in comics form. The result is this side-by-side bilingual collection of graphic memoirs that not only builds connections across language, but also breaks down barriers and expands hope.
En tiempos de inquietud y acalorados debates sobre la inmigración, este libro representa una oportunidad para escuchar directamente a los jóvenes quienes suelen ocupar los titulares en la prensa, pero cuyas historias no se alcanzan a narrar por completo. Dieciséis jóvenes del Latin American Youth Center (LAYC) en Washington, D.C. se unieron para contar sus propias historias de inmigración y de transformación en formato de cómic. El resultado es esta colección de memorias gráficas bilingüe, que no sólo construye conexiones entre los idiomas, sino que también elimina barreras y abre un espacio a la esperanza.
BUY IT IN A SET of all 2018 New Releases!
During the summer of 2017, Shout Mouse Press held a month-long workshop with LAYC's Latino Youth Leadership Council (LYLC), a passionate group of young people dedicated to social justice in their community. The workshop, led by a team of teaching artists with experience devising and illustrating comic books, resulted in a graphic memoir collection by Latinx youth that inspires, motivates, and educates its readers, and that changes the narrative about America's immigrants. Learn More
'Voces sin Fronteras' is a graphic novel-style book of 32 short stories documenting hardships Latinx Immigrants faced in their home countries, as well as in the United States.
Ranging from the loss of family members who leave home for a better life, whether for employment or educational opportunities or to be closer to family members, they are the true stories of people who participated in the Latino Youth Leadership Council, part of the Columbia Heights-base nonprofit organization, the Latin American Youth Center (LAYC).
"Issues about immigration and its impact on families have been prominent in the current US political scene, with a gross amount of injustice and racism cast toward many people seeking asylum. This book is an excellent entry into this political conversation, with sixteen true accounts from the lives of young people who have come over from Latin American countries to live and find a better life in the United States. These adolescents are the Latino Youth Leadership Council of the Washington DC-based Latin American Youth Center, founded in 1968."
The other day I arrived home to find waiting in the mailbox a weighty, Voces Sin Fronteras: Our Stories Our Truth. It proved not only weighty to the hand, but once I began peeling its pages back, weighty to the soul.

A quick little post about my new favourite piece of equipment, a keg used as a simple stainless steel fermentor, and no that's not a spelling mistake. Apparently a fermentor is the vessel where the fermentation takes place, while a fermenter is the agent that performs the fermentation, i.e. little yeasts. Anyway this one was simple: there was a stray 30L keg that someone was trying to get rid of, so I obliged, I removed the spear (with a little difficulty, owing to a kind of safety 'catch' that meant it did not simply unscrew), I gave it a good wash out, and I popped an oversized rubber carboy cap on it. This is a size larger than the standard one that fits over a 20L carboy, and I picked it up in a lovely little homebrew shop; Edina Homebrew in Edinburgh when I was passing there last year. Luckily it fits perfectly. Now I have a lovely little 30L, steel, airtight vessel for my smaller (20-25L) brews.

Brian Knolley has spent nearly three decades in the trenches of Dallas' house music scene. He can be seen laying down sides as part of the Our House crew or as a guest at parties all over the city. Knolley's experience comes through with every needle drop, every mix, every track selection and every release.
For this week's mix, he delivers a solid hour of grade-A house, including tracks from Detroit Swindle, Fred Everything and Kink. He also throws in one of his productions under his alias, Fantum.
Dallas Observer: How did you get started deejaying? How long have you been at it?
Brian Knolley: I was introduced to house music by my best friend, Luan, when he purchased turntables and set them up in his bathroom in the tub on a table. This was way back in 1990. We learned together and have been playing house ever since. House music and being around other likeminded people was like nothing I had ever experienced. It was nonjudgmental, and everyone was there for the same reason — house music — and I'm still friends with a majority of the people I met then.
How was this mix made? Is there a particular theme for the track selection?
The theme was a mixture of house and techno. I just played what felt good. House is a feeling.
Where do you like to dig for tracks?
For brick-and-mortar shops, I frequent Josey Records and Retroplex Records. For the digital outlets, I frequent Traxsource.
What is your relationship with house music?
We got married back in 1990. It was love at first listen. My best friend got into house by way of hip-hop and exposed me to it. I was always a Prince fan. And I always loved those chords Doc Fink from Prince's band the Revolution was playing on the Prince records. I was hearing those same chords all over early house music. I made the connection in my head, and I was in.
How involved in production are you?
I have tracks on Audiophile Deep, Grin Trax, Gets House, Casa de Disco. I love producing music. There is a special place in my heart for creating music that makes people happy. I took a break for about a year, and now I'm back at it. I will be releasing several tracks this coming fall. So stay tuned.
Do you have a favorite piece of studio gear or software?
Axiom 49, Emulator II (old school — 1986) and my Pioneer XDJ-RX. I use Ableton Live 9 for production and way too many plugins.
What non-dance music gets you excited?
Alternative, R&B, soul, funk, jazz, disco. I also have a love for death metal, yeah, the hard stuff. I like classical, too. Sepulture, Coroner, Death out of Florida — started listening to them in '87. I like the speed, the classical chops. True musicianship.
What was your most significant musical experience of the past year?
Oh man, where do I start? This has been an amazing year for music, clubbing and concerts. Some of the gigs that I have played this year have been awesome. The house music crowd has grown so large in the past year, and the love they give back to the DJ has been phenomenal. But I have to say that playing SXSW was so much fun.
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.
You have successfully signed up for your selected newsletter(s) - please keep an eye on your mailbox, we're movin' in!
Is there a track that you always come back to as a DJ?
Any Pepe Bradock track. His production has an organic quality that sets him apart from most house producers. Matthew Herbert also has a similar aesthetic. These are guys that produce tracks purely from an artistic perspective and not just dance floor utility. I appreciate the sincerity and technique that goes into their productions.
What releases do you have coming up?
I'm working on a project with Demarkus Lewis that should be released in the near future alongside some tech-house tracks that I have been working on. [Next year] will be gangbuster for getting my name out in the music scene and making my mark. Keep an eye out for Fantum.
And gigs?
I am happy to be joining Motif crew for their end of Summer Soireee this Saturday at Nora's on Lower Greenville. As always you can catch me at various Our House events.

Just. What. The. Hell?
Non-citizens serving on juries? You certainly are the land of fruits and nuts.
Calif. bill would let non-citizens serve on juries
SACRAMENTO, California (AP) -- The California Assembly passed a bill on Thursday that would make the state the first in the nation to allow non-citizens who are in the country legally to serve on jury duty.
Assemblyman Bob Wieckowski, D-Fremont, said his bill, AB1401, would help California widen the pool of prospective jurors and help integrate immigrants into the community.
It does not change other criteria for being eligible to serve on a jury, such as being at least 18, living in the county that is making the summons, and being proficient in English.

Today's market is flooded with a variety of lifting equipment. These lifting equipment, the cranes, comes in a variety of size and type. All these different varieties of cranes serve different functions. The variety of cranes ranges from the huge ones, used in manufacturing and construction units, to the smaller ones, used in factories. Among the variety of cranes the most common type of cranes are the Jib Cranes.
These cranes are the one, having a jib, a kind of horizontal portion which supports moveable hoist. This horizontal jib can be fixed or can swing, the jib can either fixed to a wall or to the floor-mounted pillar.
These cranes are mainly found in small size that is why the industrial units and the military vehicles are the sectors,where these cranes are most commonly used. To lift the material from one floor to another, these cranes are installed on an upper floor area of the warehouses. Therefore, these cranes are commonly called the hoists.
The Types....
There are mainly four types of jib cranes:
These cranes remain stable on the floor without any support. This type of cranes comes with a foundation base and thus, need no solid structure for support.
Wall Mounted
As name suggests this type of crane is fixed on to the wall and is circular in shape. The lift is mainly installed close to the underneath of roofs.
Wall Bracket
Alike the wall mounted crane, these cranes comes with a bracket and provides maximum hoist coverage. It swings the load all around the area.
Mast Style
These cranes are just like the free standing cranes with only one difference, that is, these cranes require support. They need to be mounted at the top and bottom. It helps in providing it maximum rotation to 360 degree with maximum lift as well.
Safety is important....
With any kind or the variety of lifting equipment, safety is always the major concern. It is important to take the proper safety measures before using the equipment and also when the crane is in action. It is vital because, manhandling the crane can have very dangerous consequences, it can lead to serious injury or death. Though jib cranes are smaller in size, but even then safety measures are still very important. Proper check of any bent supports is essential, before operating on the crane. Besides giving the overall training for operating the crane, it is equally important that the operator should also be given the proper know how of the emergency safety measures. Like the jib arm's range of motion, emergency Stop Buttons and Overload Indicators.
Hence, this lifting equipment is perfect tool to meet your lifting demands. With proper use, these proves beneficial for getting your work done speedily. Because of small size it can adjust very well inside large indoor premises.

You get all of this for $85US and you get to keep it FOREVER! The total cost of this program would be in the thousands if you were to actually train with me as my client in my gym practise!
I am going to guide you every step of the way ensuring that you recover post the birth of your baby. Birth2Fitmum will help you optimally recover post the birth of your baby and get you back in shape feeling fitter, healthier and stronger.
Also,for Mums who have had a C-Section we have a part of the program specifically designed for you. Just wait 2-3 weeks post your birth or start from when your scar is no longer sore. Remember though, there is no rush, as you can take as long as you like to complete the program.
"After my son I had a horrific gap. I could basically fit my whole hand in. Was awful. At 15m post having him I started the Birth2FItMum program and no kidding 3 weeks later I basically had closed it, (and I thought nothing was happening it's that easy) a few months later I had it checked professionally and sure enough it was closed up, mini tiny gap at my belly button." Monique Sept" 2018
More from our Members:
" I have 2 girls, only 15 month between two labours. After first, I didn't know I could have Diastsisi Recti (but I had), so I started to exercise callanetics, which could make my DR worse. But I couldnt tell, because I got pregnant again. After the second labour I had 10 kg weight to loose, my DR was 2.5 fingers around my belly button and it was quite deep. 4 months ago I started B2fm program. I am very happy with the results! I have no back pain, I can wear my pre – pregnancy clothes again, I lost babyweight. I still have 2 fingers DR, but it is much more shalower now! Thank you Lorraine!" Michaela Cahova
" This morning I finished the 12 week Birth2FitMum programme … Phew!! So good, my son is 5 months, emergency c section, was 4.32 kg – my bump was huge (had a stranger with twin baby girls ask if I was expecting twins too! No hard feelings was just a bit awkward) so my Diastasis Recti was 5 fingers wide, very deep and long. Today it is 1 finger wide and shallow! I repeated the first few weeks twice, and struggled a lot with motivation and energy – compare that to the past 2 weeks where I have been bouncing round the lounge doing 3 sets of the wicked workout video and loving it! Thank you Lorraine!! I am looking forward to starting SuperFitMum after a weeks rest and taking on the challenge." Kylie Strickland
" Finally back to my pregnancy size/weight! Diastasis recti seems to be pretty much healed. No aches and pains. So glad I did this program (birth2fit) as I could not have anticipated having such a large bubs! At 6 months he is 13 kg and I am so thankful my core strength is such that I can carry him correctly and without pain." Francheska
Birth2FitMum is a Total Body Workout Program concentrating on improving recovery, postnatal posture, core and glute strength, healing a Diastasis, reducing aches and pains and ultimately getting YOU back in shape feeling Fit, Healthy and Strong post birth.
The program is perfect if you have just had your baby as you can start from 2 weeks post, if you feel ready but you can also start anytime from 3 months to 3+ years.
I have been LOVING your program (about to start part 4 of B2FM, and so thankful to Sarah Brown for referring it to me. The photos attached are me 3 months post the birth of my first, and 3 months post the birth of my second (most recent taken in February 2016). I was happy at both points in my life, but the big differences:-
1, My flexibility, strength and energy.
After rebirth of my first I developed back problems, and some days it was so bad I'd need someone to come over and help me with the baby because I couldn't lift him.
Second time round after doing your program from day 1, I can squat down and coo at my baby, jump up and run around with my toddler, and have plenty of energy to get the housework done, all with no back pain.
2, $$$$$$$.
First time round spent: $1,144 on gym membership, $300 on chiropractor, $435 on physio and back
belt = Total of $1879.
Second time round spent $121 on your program and $375 on physio (preventative) = Total $496. SAVING $1383

I have worked with Jonathan on several projects over the past year and half - his character, ethics, and professionalism are truly beyond reproach. I would highly recommend him to even my closest of friends, knowing he would absolutely deliver. Beyond working with Jonathan - I have been privileged to see him speak public, and privately. He is an incredible motivator, teacher and leader. I have witnessed him speak on motivation in business, personal finances, relationship, personal wellness and health. His ability to convey the passion he feels for helping others is amazing, and can truly be life changing. If you ever have the opportunity to see him speak - take advantage - you will most certainly benefit from it, and see it as time not just well spent - but as time well invested in bettering yourself

Jonathan Benjamin has been my personal friend and mentor for over 15 years. Anytime I have a question and want real guidance or solid advice he is the call I make. It's very helpful to have someone who is always positive and uplifting as him to turn to. His advice and guidance has brought me through some of the darkest times in my life. He is patient & if he feels like I'm not receiving his point clearly, he will explain it in terms I can understand. He's always ready to help even if he "doesn't have time," he will take the time if someone is in need. I've had the pleasure of watching him grow and thirst for that purpose that was calling him. He is a true leader, teacher, and truly wants to share the skills he has learned with the world. My best advice to myself or anyone near him, is to listen.

"I heard Jonathan's story and was inspired by the message and by the attitude of 'acting as if' - of holding fast to the goals and desires by continuing the action.
When I first met Jonathan, I had just left a marriage of 26yrs - I was starting over and I was insecure, lacking confidence in myself, my finances and my potential. I listened to JB's message - his strength even in the midst of his own insecurities - his strength of living the life of his dreams and I wanted that too - the life of my dreams - my first class life - not settling for less than because that is not only what i thought I deserved, but was also raised to believe that I couldn't attain that higher level. I held fast to the vision, the message that JB has "act as if" " what would first class people do?" and I lived it - stepping out - stepping forward in trust that it would happen - that I would attract my dreams, goals and desires. When I put it out there, it was as if the Universe said - "Finally, you have asked - Here you go".
After a rather confounding, somewhat turmultous year of change, much of it unexpected, but with clear vision of my end goals - Things started to change.
I moved 3 times, settled an amicable divorce, found MY condo with the western facing view for the sunsets with french doors on the office, a fireplace and 2 car garage. Unexpectedly, I did not have my employment cotract renewed with company A only to be offered a job 3 weeks later with company B for much more money than I had been making before. Everything, I mean everything, fell into place with no snags and with perfect timing in the way I visualized the outcome. Oh I was scared and insecure at times for sure, but I always had Jonathan's words to fall back on, his immense support and his belief that 'I could do it' - Actually it was more like - You ARE doing it ! First Class - all the way! Whenever I was in doubt - I could hear his words. Do it, you deserve it, you are worth it - there is no try - only do or not do.... Think it, believe it, attract it. No more living small. This is the way Jonathan lives - I've watched his growth, change and his evolution as well. This is not just rhetoric - He lives it. He inspires me.

I hired Jonathan in 2016 as a business consultant. I had a dream of becoming an entrepreneur and opening my own advertising agency. While I was well versed in how to operate as a media buyer, I was completely green when it came to building a business from the ground up. When I say that Jonathan was paramount in the creation of that business I assure you it is the world's biggest understatement. My questions for Jonathan were endless. Do I need to create a LLC or an S-Corp? What payment platform should I use? Could he help me create a logo, website and assist me with social media marketing? His answer was always YES! He challenged me to think outside of the box and generate creative solutions to all of my start-up "problems". Our consultation calls were always filled with his thought-provoking questions which led me to create a cohesive brand. Although the technical advice he provided was instrumental in my company's creation and eventual success, his encouragement and "life coach" approach to business consulting is what truly sets him apart. Jonathan will summon you to put the procrastination bear to sleep and push you forward when the tasks of entrepreneurship feel overwhelming. I am now moving on to opening my second business and you can be assured I will keep Jonathan at my side.

In the late 1100s in Paris, various educators were inspired by a new idea, the unity of knowledge: A fully educated man is not only an accomplished specialist in a particular career (the lucrative arts of Law, Medicine, and Theology), but he also has fundamental knowledge applicable to everyone's life (the liberal arts). This idea of the unity of knowledge became an ideal--that is, a goal worthy of action, including advocacy to others.[1]
Individually each Parisian educator, in his own manner, was taking steps toward ensuring that his students benefited from this new approach to education, and he was advocating that others do likewise. Considered together, these educators were a movement, that is, they were individuals taking action (including advocacy) toward a common goal of changing certain conditions in which they lived. By contrast, if one thousand people separately and coincidentally decide to paint their houses white, out of personal preference, they would not be a movement. To create a movement for painting houses white, the individuals would need to be motivated by a desire to change their society or culture, and they would need to advocate that idea to others.
The individuals in a movement need not know each other personally or even be aware of each other as individuals. A "movement" is thus a mental grouping of physically dispersed, socially unconnected individuals. Often, however, in a particular society when individuals realize they can achieve a common goal faster through cooperation, these individuals form actual groups, that is, sets of individuals who interact with each other in one way or another for a common purpose. Groups within a movement can take various forms.
In a network, Mr. Adams knows Ms. Beaumont, who knows Mr. Carter, who knows Mr. Daniels; but Mr. Daniels need not know Mr. Adams or Ms. Beaumont. A modern example is a network of neighbors who want to reduce crime in their neighborhood by watching out for each other. In an ad-hoc organization, individuals structure their relationship to achieve a particular, but short-term goal. An example would be a group of individuals who select a chairman and a treasurer for a political campaign to support a mayoral candidate who will fight to reduce crime. When the election is over, the group disbands. In an institution, which is a second kind of organization, individuals structure their relationships to achieve a goal that might require an effort longer than the lives of the founders. An example would be a group of individuals who want to make their neighborhood safe for themselves, their children, and their grandchildren, so they form The Institute for Safety in the Southside.
In Paris in the late 1100s, the advocates of unity of knowledge in education were a successful movement. They networked in the city that was the hub of the kingdom of France. They formed particular organizations to express their views. They eventually founded an institution: a guild of all members of the faculties of liberal arts, theology, law, and medicine. This guild fought for its members' goals. The Latin word for guild was universitas. The institution they created was the University of Paris, the world's first university, a unique invention of Western Civilization, the civilization whose foundation is a philosophy of reason.
In the United States, in our own time, an example of a movement is the conservative legal movement, a group of conservatives who want to see conservative views of the law presented in the top universities, in competition with leftist views of the law. The conservatives have rapidly achieved partial success.[2]
In conclusion I would say that a movement, as a group of individuals in a certain time and place, has two essential, defining characteristics: (1) a common goal of changing social conditions through (2) advocacy and other individual actions.

Day 1: Cuiaba – SouthWild Pantanal Lodge. Reception at the Cuiaba airport (CGB). Lunch at a Brazilian buffet near the airport or in the town of Pocone (depending on arrival time). Depart for the lodge, driving 90 minutes on asphalt to the entrance of the famous Transpantaneira Road, and then another 2 hours on this raised dirt and gravel route — one of the best wildlife viewing platforms in the world. You can admire the huge variety of fauna and flora along the Transpantaneira and make several stops on the way to photograph.

SouthWild Pantanal Lodge, once was called Fazenda Santa Tereza, a traditional cattle ranch. Today, it is an ecoIodge on a 3,800-acre private nature reserve composed of a mosaic of savannas and forests on the banks of the wildlife-rich Pixaim River. Now deep in the Pantanal, from our boats on the river and on foot in the riverine forest, you can see three species of monkeys, up to 400 bird species (including Hyacinth Macaws), Capybaras, Caimans and Giant Otters. Additionally, we often see Ocelots at night and even occasionally a relaxed Jaguar on the riverbank during the day. You can also explore our scientifically-designed grid of forest trails, which crisscross the Pantanal's rarest and most species-rich habitat. Two wildlife observation towers are strategically located at ideal spots: a nearby Jabiru Stork nest and in the bird-rich riverine forest. Despite its remote location, SWP offers high-speed Internet in guest rooms and common areas alike. In addition, the lodge features split air conditioning in each guest room. Overnight in the SouthWild Pantanal Lodge. L, D.

Days 2 & 3: SouthWild Pantanal Lodge. Our guides organize and adjust the schedule of wildlife outings according to recent sightings, weather and guest preferences. Each day includes one forest walk and one outing by boat, car or horseback. Overnight in the SWP. B, L, D.
Forest walk. A morning or afternoon walk for 1 or 2 hours in the forest and savannas not far from the lodge. SouthWild Pantanal is an excellent location for birding — an essential stop for all serious birders. Optional visit to the forest tower. Habituated Brown Capuchin Monkeys and Black-tailed Marmosets often are seen in the forest.
Boat ride. A 2-hour-long morning or afternoon boating excursion on the 70-meter-wide Pixaim River, which is one of the best sites in the world for predictable viewing of wild Giant Otters from a distance of only 3 to 16 feet away. Often they will come close to the boat, craning their necks and snorting loudly.
Horseback riding. A 2-hour-long horseback ride through the ranch. This outing offers a great opportunity to see the Pantanal from a more intimate perspective.
Additionally, SouthWild Pantanal Lodge offers use of the Jabiru Stork nest viewing tower, which is only a 2-minute walk from the lodge, affording peeks into the nest of the tallest flying bird in Latin America.
Great photo opportunities are made possible by our bird feeders and bird-filled trees right around the lodge. The floor-to-ceiling screening in the dining room allows uniquely-spectacular bird observation in the trees that shade the lodge, making it the most beautiful dining-room view of any terrestrial lodge in the entire Pantanal. During the hottest time of the day, you can enjoy the pool or our library of nature books or retreat to your air-conditioned bedroom.
During one night of your stay, you wll enjoy an hour-long spotlighting outing in one of our photo safari trucks. B, L, D.

Note: Pantanal wildlife behavior is a constantly changing puzzle. To optimize your wildlife experience, highly-experienced naturalist guides analyze wildlife sightings, tree-fruiting schedules, and river-water levels before deciding on the exact order of activities.

The Jabiru Stork Nest Viewing Tower
No other observation spot in the world matches the Jabiru tower at SouthWild Pantanal Lodge. A user-friendly,spiral staircase ascends 12 meters from the ground to a platform with railings. From the top, guests gaze at eye-level into the huge nest of a pair of Jabiru Storks.The distance from guest to nest is only16 meters. These, the tallest flying birds in the Americas, renest in the same place every year, thus guaranteeing a unique wildlife attraction.
The birds are completely relaxed with human observers.

Jabiru nests are typically located in forks of large branches near the tops of tall trees, but our stork nest is much lower than normal, and thanks to years of careful habituation by our staff, the birds are completely relaxed with human observers.

In 2015, SWP guests marveled at four young Jabiru Storks maturing over the months of July to October, as their proud parents flew in often to feed them regurgitated eels. Our Jabiru tower is a must-visit while in the Pantanal.
Our second observation tower is 16 meters tall and is located on the forested edge of our grid of scientifically-designed, marked trails alongside the Pixaim River. Upon climbing to the top, which is just above the forest canopy, guests enjoy a panoramic view of the Pantanal, as far as the eye can see. This tower offers an excellent opportunity not only to spot birds of the forest canopy, but also to appreciate the vast, flat expanses of the largest wetland in the world.
Ocelots have never been photographed this well before.

Ever wonder why you never see any photos of Ocelots? They are incredibly hard to see and close to impossible to photograph. Until now! At our elevated hide in the Brazilian Pantanal, we guarantee Ocelot sightings. How? Ocelots are unusually abundant in our forest. By studying their behavior and the routes they take through the forest, we have built an elevated hide right at the hub of Ocelot activity. As our Ocelots are photographed, they become more habituated and being curious cats they tend to stick around. This provides our guests with unprecedented opportunities to photograph these stunning cats. So if you are tired of photographing the same animals as everyone else, look no further!
The Pantanal is the largest tropical wetland in the world, home to a staggering abundance and diversity of species. Our Ocelots roam a beautifully lush patch of gallery forest next to the Pixiam river. Our elevated hide is key to the Ocelots coming so close and behaving naturally in front of our guests. Ocelots almost always climb trees in front of our hide, allowing for some stunning photography. During the period from 5:40 pm to 7:15 pm, one to three different Ocelots often appear. The average duration of sightings is about 10 minutes, with some nights running to 25 minutes and others to just a minute or two. Ocelots are nocturnal, so we use a rigged lighting system to illuminate them enough for auto-focus to work reliably. On camera flashes and multiple flash systems are recommended for professional results. Our Ocelots come very close to the hide, so you don't need a gigantic lens to get great results. A 400 mm lens on full frame, or 200 – 300 mm lenses on crop sensors are all the magnification you need.
Sight Jaguars on an optional day trip.

Jaguar Zone Day Trip Extension
We strongly suggest that months in advance, guests book a multi-night stay in the Jaguar Flotel. This extension can guarantee your chances of seeing a Jaguar and allow us to optimize the use of cars and boats, thus keeping the trip more affordable. Nevertheless, those who arrive at SWP without having booked time at the Flotel often can schedule a day trip at an extra cost that includes transfers, lunch, a search boat and driver.
This day trip works as follows: Early breakfast at SouthWild Pantanal Lodge, land transfer to Porto Jofre, at the end of the Transpantaneira Road, in open-sided, roofed, bucket-seat-equipped safari truck or closed car or van. Stops along the way timed to allow the group to reach the end of Transpantaneira by 10 a.m. to board a radio-equipped search boat for the trip upstream into the heart of the Jaguar-rich zone of our 7,000-acre Jaguar Research Center Reserve that surrounds the Jaguar Flotel. Upon arrival, a 2-hour search before lunch to observe Jaguars and Giant Otters on some of the following rivers and their connecting channels: Three Brothers, Cuiabá and Piquiri. Those rivers connect right in the center of the world's most Jaguar-rich zone. Return for a full buffet lunch at the Jaguar Flotel. At 1 pm or 2 pm, enjoy a 4-hour boat outing, searching for and observing Jaguars, Giant Otters, Capybaras and a lot more. Return by boat and then safari truck, car or van to the SouthWild Pantanal Lodge.
During the hottest time of the day, retreat to your air-conditioned bedroom.

"We all loved the time in the Pantanal."
We all loved the time in the Pantanal. The accommodations at South Wild Pantanal Lodge were excellent. The food and rooms were very nice… We enjoyed many sightings on the road and the Capybara families and Jabiru Stork nest with babies at the Lodge.
–Linda Huetinck, John Huetinck, Bev Griffith & Harold Griffith, September 2015
"Great wildlife in close proximity."
Excellent accommodation. Wonderful staff who greeted us like old friends and, upon departing, ensured they gave us farewell hugs. The two Peruvian staff spoke English very well which made life much easier. Food — hot, varied and very tasty. Great wildlife in close proximity. Varied viewing options; e.g., boat, vehicle or horseback.
–Geoff & Hilary Cuff, June 2015
"Excellent spot, great birds and magical late afternoon boat trip…"
Southwild Lodge – excellent spot, great birds and magical late afternoon boat trip…
–Desmond & Rosemary Harrison, September 2014
Secluded at the end of a private, two-mile-long driveway, SouthWild Pantanal Lodge features 15 air-conditioned rooms with private, hot-shower bathrooms. We offer free WiFi Internet in all guest rooms and in the common areas of the lodge. As the lodge is a modified, old-style ranch house, its wide, wrap-around porch and airy, all-screen dining room (unique in the entire Pantanal) preserve a traditional flavor of charm and quaintness that is in keeping with the private, natural setting on the very banks of the 60-meter-wide Pixaim River.
See three species of monkeys.

Fruit juice is included at breakfast, and coffee and tea are available at all meals. All other beverages, including small, sealed bottles of drinking water, are extra. Please bring your own Nalgene or similar water bottle to refill for free, thus eliminating plastic refuse.
Approximately 6 to 9% of the days within the June 1 to September 1 period of the "dry season" actually have drizzle or rain, wind and temperatures of 9 to 12 degrees C (48 to 54 degrees F). For boat rides on those rare cold days, bring excellent rainwear, warm winter coats and warm hats. In May and September, 2 to 4% of the days also have cold fronts with drizzle or rain, though they tend not to be as cold. Most other days in the period of May 1 to December 31 tend to be warm or hot and sunny.
Spot up to 400 bird species (including Hyacinth Macaws).

Ego of Billionaires is Implausible
Data Remix by Pat Darnell | March Madness 23, 2015 | Bryan TX
Not to worry. Billionaires are too far out of the loop to ever get their way. HA! Who talks to them after their first fortune? Only people trying to stroke the ego's of billionaires remain in the loop. To be in the Wilk's entourage, we imagine one would have to take a lot of abuse.
So where did they manage to make all their b-b-b-billions?
"...Last year, [2013] the Wilkses added about 12,380 acres to their Fergus County holdings alone, where they now hold title to about 91,450 acres – about 143 square miles. In nearby Golden Valley County to the south, the Wilks brothers added more than 8,700 acres to their holdings in 2013, boosting their property there to about 43,750 acres. In adjacent Musselshell County, their holdings held steady at 64,000 acres, land that encompasses the Pronghorn Ranch previously owned by Earl Holding of Sinclair Oil fame.
As of 2012, the brothers owned 276,000 acres in seven Montana counties, not counting their holdings in other states.
The Wilks brothers acquired their fortune from selling their interest in Frac Tech in 2011, a deal that was reportedly worth $3.2 billion. Frac Tech was an oil fracking business, the same technology that's being used to fuel North Dakota's Bakken oil shale boom (BRETT FRENCH Billings Gazette. Mar 1, 2014. LINK)..."
If you want to make big bucks in this country, 'guess you have to own lots of land and all its mineral rights. I am not making any friends by looking down on robber baron's largess ... if I were a person with position and/or power, as a person who has something to lose, I might profess a totally different cause for this tirade. But for now I am in a dither about the wasting of our land.
"...A scam is a fraudulent business scheme, or a swindle, and a deliberate ploy to defraud ignorant, naïve, and stupid people out of their money or assets. There are many reasons idiots fall for obviously dubious "deals," and stupidity aside, greed is often the culprit. But fear of losing something certainly plays a role. Republicans have had a thirty year run convincing stupid poor people looking to get rich, and morons terrified of other Americans taking their "stuff," that giving up everything they have to the wealthy will magically transform a dirt-poor imbecile into a billionaire, save Americans' liberty in the process, and teach the government who's boss.(Rmuse. Sunday, March, 22nd, 2015. LINK)..."This all started with this article:
Meet the Billionaire Brothers You Never Heard of Who Fund the Religious Right: "The fracking boom has produced a surge in wealthy Texans. The fracking boom has produced a surge in wealthy Texans. In 2002, the Wilks brothers created Frac Tech, which produced equipment used in fracking, or in industry parlance, "well stimulation services." In May 2011, Dan and Farris sold Frac Tech to a group of investors led by Singapore's sovereign wealth fund for $3.5 billion. Their share was reportedly 68 percent of that total, and they showed up on the 2011 Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans with an estimated net worth of $1.4 billion each. The most recent Forbes list put their estimated wealth at $1.5 billion each. (In our gilded age, that puts them near the bottom of the Forbes 400, and barely gets them into the top 40 in Texas. But you can still do an awful lot with $3 billion.)"
And, why are billionaires always "moralists?"
"...CBN's Brody reported: "The Wilks brothers worry that America's declining morals will especially hurt the younger generation, so they're using the riches that the Lord has blessed them with to back specific goals." One of those goals may be David Lane's insistence that politicians make the Bible a primary textbook in public schools (ibid. ) ..."
'via Blog this'
Small fish need not join this ring of fire. [At this point in time I am having second thoughts about the simplest thing, re-financing my little house and property.] You see, Timmy, when you are dealing out there, and you are a high roller, very few legal actions are followed. Most of the robber land barons depend on loopholes, stealth, extortion, and any other means to achieve their objective to own "land." Citizen groups usually find out about a shady land deal two to three years after it has been developed. Then the local politicians are just a bunch of "small fish" barking at the moon.
In land deals it takes about ten to twelve years to realize the returns on investment. Holding large parcels of land can be paid for by divvying up small parts of the whole and selling off to developers.
My bonnie lies over the ocean ... my bonnie lies over the sea ... this ditty is just like a land deal. The meaning is unclear, the outcome is based on some sort of shielded loyalty, it depends on a minority largess in heaps, and just doesn't quell the angry spirit of the excluded class. You see, the bonnie is not a girl at all, it is 'Bonnie Prince Charlie' (Y ikki peed ya. LINK).
And we often say we are going to quit writing about billionaires, and kings, and hucksters, but we still find them as good contrast to the middle class that reads us as we go along. Here is a Boy Scout version of 'Bring Back ...'
My mother makes beer in the bathtub,
My father makes synthetic gin,
My sister makes fudge for a quarter,
Wouldja believe how the money rolls in?
My mother, she drowned in the bathtub,SOUR GRAPES
My father, he died from his gin,
My sister choked on her chocolate,
My stars, what a fix I am in.
This post made me: __feel better, __feel good, __feel like middle class, __feel poor, __feel like opening my Bible, __feel like vomiting...

Hey everyone! I am so very excited to share my project using the super fun Hip Hip Hooray collection today! I decided to make a super fun candy tube holder cutting file from the SVG Cutting Files store and embellish it using these great robot stickers.
I used foam stickers on the backs of my robots to give my box some dimension. The green Fancy Frill stickers, adhered with foam stickers as well, made the perfect little ledges for my robots to stand on and they matched the gears perfectly.
These little robots are soo fun and cute! Did you notice they are wearing ties?!
I can't wait to give this fun little gift to one of my nephews on their upcoming birthday!
I hope you were inspired and excited by how I used the Hip Hip Hooray collection today! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Not only me but all our spinners have struggled," Afridi told Geo News television."This rule of having two new balls in an innings and not having more than four fielders outside the 30m circle throughout an innings has made life difficult."GALLERY: Proteas go pinkVIDEO: SA v Pakistan 3rd ODI, highlightsPakistan's slow bowlers have been unable to contain South Africa and the home side racked up a huge 343 for five on the way to a 125-run win in the third match at the Wanderers on Sunday."I am now working with my bowling coach to adapt to the rules and come up with new tactics and strategies. I have also discussed it with our premier spinner, Saeed Ajmal," said Afridi."I think the new rules have changed the approach of the captains and batsmen as well."The regulations were changed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) late last year.The 33-year-old Afridi has been toiling with bat and ball for quite a while but he found some form by smashing 88 for Pakistan on Sunday."It has been a long struggle but everyone goes through bad phases," he explained."It is all about remaining tough and searching for confidence.

"They have played us very well."

In June 2012, two Registered Citizens were gunned down by a lifelong career criminal named Patrick Drum in Port Angeles, WA. Later that year, I decided to attempt to make this case into a documentary about vigilante violence.
In light of the article, "The Vigilante of Clallam County," printed in The Atlantic, written by Lexi Pandell, I figured it was time I gave an update on the film.
For the past few months, I have devoted time trying to gather as much information on this case as possible. After fundraising for the money to travel to Port Angeles to collect more interviews and case info, I still lacked some information. I contacted Patrick Drum and even tried scheduling an interview. Unfortunately, the Washington DOC will not all me to film Drum, so I ran out of options. Drum saw my appearance on HLN and the cat was out of the bag, so to speak. I have reached a dead end with extracting information from Patrick Drum.
This year, Lexi Pandell's article and the LMN show "I Killed my BFF" have each provided an interpretation of the events surrounding the murders of Gary Blanton and Jerry Ray. For the past year, I have also devoted time and research into the case. While the other articles give a pretty good story, it is still a biased and incomplete story. Both stories paint Drum as an "antihero," a rough character you can still sympathize with because, well, he killed two Registered Citizens.
While I can help fill in the missing puzzle pieces, I cannot offer a complete documentary with the footage I have at the moment. So what I am looking to do is expand the film into a treatise on vigilantism against Registered Persons. That means more work, more interviews…and unfortunately, more money. I was in the process of making a video ad before this story broke, in fact, because being an ACTIVE activist costs money. Traveling, phone calls and stamps, equipment, and projects like this documentary all take resources, and as I previously stated, it is hard to get all I need on my meager income.
In the coming months, I will have to travel to Montgomery, AL to stop an anti-clustering law, as well as a possible trip to Coalinga, CA to join a planned protest. I need lighting for films, and most of all, the funds to keep my website up. This documentary is still needed, but I need more than the footage I have to give a quality product.
There is no better time for me to ask the people for their generous support of my organization than right now, during the Holiday Season. The Holiday Season is always followed up by the Legislative Season, so now is the time to offer your support before you overspend on the holidays.
