(This is the last of five posts about the American godfather of nonviolent resistance, Gene Sharp, and the role of CIA and Pentagon-funded foundations and think tanks in funding and promoting nonviolent resistance)
In the Arab Spring revolutions of 2011, Sharp and the Albert Einstein Institution (AEI) seem to have handed the baton to his disciple Peter Ackerman. According to Louis Proyect, the latter is a former AEI board member and founder (in 2002) of the International Center for Nonviolent Conflict (ICNC). It was the ICNC that offered nonviolence training sessions in Cairo for Egyptian and Tunisian activists.
As Proyect makes clear Ackerman, like Sharp and Zunes, is no progressive. A Wall Street financier and hedge fund manager (formerly number two in Michael Milken's junk bond empire), Ackerman is a member of the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR), as well as a former director of Freedom House, previously run by former CIA director James Woolsey. Ackerman also sits on the board of Spirit of America, a group that is "dedicated to spreading US influence worldwide, with a particular emphasis on covert cyber-intelligence measures." Ackerman is also on the advisory board of the ultraconservative Cato Institute's Project on Social Security Choice, which proposes to privatize Social Security and allow younger workers to invest their Social Security taxes in private retirement accounts.
"Arab Spring" Neither Spontaneous Nor Indigenous
As others have documented elsewhere, the 2011 uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa were neither spontaneous nor indigenous. Many of the individuals and groups who helped organize them had received training (at times in the US) sponsored by the State Department and CIA-linked foundations, such as the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). The New York Times makes this clear in a April 2011 article U.S. Groups Helped Nurture Arab Uprisings. It states specifically that "a number of the groups and individuals directly involved in the revolts and reforms sweeping the region, including the April 6 Youth Movement in Egypt, the Bahrain Center for Human Rights and grass-roots activists like Entsar Qadhi, a youth leader in Yemen, received training and financing from groups like the International Republican Institute, the National Democratic Institute and Freedom House, a nonprofit human rights organization based in Washington."
Likewise, as Canadian writers and analysts Ahmed Bensaada, Michael Chossudovsky and Tony Cartalucci have documented, leaders of the NED-funded Serbian resistance group OTPOR (now renamed CANVAS – Center for Applied Nonviolent Strategies) assisted in many of these trainings, often using Gene Sharp's materials (see http://landdestroyer.blogspot.co.nz/2011/11/soros-celebrates-fall-of-tunisia.html).
Follow the Money
French Canadian author Ahmed Bensaada also discusses these relationships at length in his 2011 book L'Abarabesque Americaine, emphasizing the strong links between the two lead organizers in Egypt's April 6th movement (Bassam Samir and Adel Mohamed), the US State Department, the NED and other CIA-funded foundations that financed the "color revolutions" in Eastern Europe. Bensaada also enumerates the pro-democracy organizations in other Arab countries (Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebannon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Tunisia, Yemen, and Syria) that received similar funding. In his appendix, he identifies specific pro-democracy groups by name and the exact amount each received (in 2009) from CIA-linked foundations.
Iran's Failed Color Revolution
According to Cartalucci, the destabilization campaign that culminated in the failed 2009 Green Revolution in Iran was drawn up by the corporate-funded Brookings Institution, as articulated in their 2009 report Which Path to Persia?. As Cartalucci notes elsewhere, the mechanics of organizing the Iranian opposition was subcontracted to organizations like the US-funded CANVAS. See also The Color Revolution Fails in Iran and the 2007 BBC report Iran Shows New Scholars' Footage, linking George Soros to US efforts to destabilize Iran.Share and Enjoy:
"The easiest way to control the opposition is to be it."
How easily we forget.
Well done and worthy of an EP!
Oh and as for Skypixie you nailed it!
If there is s\dissent within the CIA they may want to implement partial solutions that will address the more insane aspects that the extremists are trying to implement. If they go to far then it will turn into something more insane than Hitler's and Stalin's purges and eventually they both led to the downfall of those within the purges.
Regardless of how much of this is true it is a good idea to implement the best educational process that will enable the public to access the information they need to run their own government if they and when they can overcome the secrecy and the elites. Efforts to delete links to dissidents that don't support the CIA agenda are of course contrary to this and other ways should be found around it.
Also even though some may not agree when ever possible non-violence is the better way to go as a tactic because it is easier to prevent things from going out of control and it gives the government less excuse to clamp down violently.
Also on a comparatively minor organization issue you might want to link up your multi-part series posts one way or another so they're easy for people to read if they find them months after they're first posted. One way to do it is to retroactively add links, another that might be easier could involve using a user tag and adding a link to it as you go. For example, you could add "Gene Sharp, and the role of CIA and Pentagon-funded foundations five part series" to each of the parts of the series and then you won't have to update as you go along; instead you could just provide a link or indicate that the reader can follow it by checking the author tags. For those of us familiar with OS it won't be hard to sort through it but others might have a harder time especially after it is no longer part of the five most recent blogs.
For example, the media would like us to believe that the insurgents resisting US occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan are either Al Qaeda or Taliban terrorists, right? That's because we never, ever hear them described as what they are - citizens of sovereign states engaged in violent resistance against an illegal military occupation.
Can you imagine the Afghan resistance fighting the world's greatest military power through nonviolent civil disobedience? It would sound pretty ludicrous, even to America's staunchest armchair liberals.
And thanks for the tip about using retroactive links.
Apparently the thinking is that popular resistance against these dictators is inevitable. The idea is to make advance preparations to ensure whatever resistance movement develops is co-opted, so as not to install regimes unfriendly to US interests (as has happened in most of South America).
This strategy (employing government funded "liberal" foundations) has been employed domestically for years to co-opt the American left. I write about my personal experiences in the single payer movement in http://stuartbramhall.aegauthorblogs.com/2011/04/21/infiltrating-the-single-payer-movement/

HOUSTON -- TMK IPSCO, the North American division of global pipe manufacturer TMK, has opened a new pipe threading and service facility in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Located in neighboring Sherwood Park, the plant will supply the full line of premium connections on pipe and accessories to TMK IPSCO's customer base in Alberta and neighboring British Columbia.
"Opening this plant is a major step forward in developing relations with our Canadian customers," said Scott Barnes, senior vice president and chief commercial officer at TMK IPSCO. "Previous Canadian orders for ULTRA connections all had to be threaded in the U.S. and trucked to customers' yards in Edmonton. This facility allows for complete flexibility in the operating size range for quick response to our Canadian customers' needs. Similarly, it also represents a major improvement in terms of logistics; we now have the ability to respond to accessory requests and changes in string designs in a matter of days."
TMK IPSCO broke ground for the Edmonton facility in March 2012 and to date has successfully threaded premium connections. The facility's capabilities will be expanded to include TMK's full line of premium connections. The size range for pipe and accessories to be threaded is 4-1/2 in. to 13-3/8 in.

Kinde Durkee Called "The Bernie Madoff Of Campaign Finance Treasurers"
Bernie Madoff and Kinde Durkee
Update: Sen. Dianne Feinstein says she was "wiped out." More below.
Another day, another victim of the Kinde Durkee campaign finance scandal.
Rep. Susan Davis, a San Diego Democrat and a Durkee client, told supporters over the weekend that more than $250,000 has been stolen from her account.
"We have been robbed!!" Davis said in an email, adding that Durkee "may well become known as the Bernie Madoff of campaign finance treasurers."
Durkee is accused of using campaign money to pay her personal expenses, including her taxes, mortgages, cosmetics, a trip to the Long Beach Aquarium, and her mom's nursing home bill.
Davis adds her name to the growing list of alleged victims. It started with Assemblyman Jose Solorio, who was named as a victim in the federal complaint. Since then, Sen. Lou Correa, Rep. Loretta Sanchez, and the L.A. County Democratic Party have all said that they, too, were victimized.
Not everyone is so unfortunate. L.A. Controller Wendy Greuel, a Durkee client and the leading fundraiser in the 2013 L.A. mayor's race, announced today that she has checked with her bank and all her campaign funds are present and accounted for. She is looking for a new treasurer. That should give some hope to other clients.
Still no word from Durkee's highest profile client: Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
Update: Feinstein tells Politico that "I was wiped out, too."
She says she doesn't know exactly what the losses were, but seems certain that she too was victimized. She had $5 million in the bank as of June 30.
Feinstein is up for reelection next year. She tells Politico she trusted Durkee "implicitly." "It's very painful," she said.
Note: Feinstein is the 7th richest person in the Senate, with a net worth somewhere between $48 million and $110 million. So if it came right down to it she could self-finance.

Harry Potter, Jesus, and Me
I'm a fan of the Harry Potter books. There. I said it. Whenever I visit a bookstore I can't resist a walk through the Young Readers section, where my heart flutters at cover illustrations of dragons and detectives and ghosts and kids dashing across fantastic landscapes. I've always loved those stories, and many times I take the books from the shelves and, with chills running up and down my arms, thumb through them. Sometimes I even smell them. (There. I said that, too.)
Years ago, on one of my trips through the kids' section I noticed a book called Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. It looked cool, and the jacket indicated that it had won a few awards. A year or so later I saw the second book, this one on display. By the time I spotted Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban on the shelves the buzz was loud enough that I decided to buy the first book. I read it, and although it had some great moments, I wasn't hooked. But at the time I was writing On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness and was learning so much so quickly about writing, I already knew North! Or Be Eaten would be a better book. I desperately hoped my readers would stick with me through my first faltering attempt at fiction because I had a much bigger story to tell.

Wingfeather Contest Winners Announced!
First of all, I spent the last four hours or so reading all your reviews, and I've cried about four times. That's partly because I'm a crybaby, and partly because I prayed almost every day of the writing of The Monster in the Hollows that the book would connect with you, the Dear Readers. What a joy it is to see that, in at least your cases, it did.
Second of all, it was HARD to choose a winner. There were so many well-written and thoughtful posts to read, and even after I narrowed it down to five reviews it wasn't easy. At the bottom of this post you'll find a list of all the blogs, and I encourage you to visit them when you get a chance. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for telling your friends and relations about these books.
Come Down, O Love Divine
I'm honored to call Fernando Ortega my friend. He has one of the best voices on the planet, he's wise (and he'd probably prove my point by claiming he isn't), and he's one of the funniest people I know. Fernando graciously let me open for him on a tour about eleven years ago, and night after night I marveled at his ability to connect with the audience, at his musicianship, and at the way he somehow managed to make the hymns I grew up singing sound new again.
He lives in New Mexico, which means I hardly ever see him anymore—a fact which, tonight, grieves me a little. So stumbling on this video today was a nice surprise. If you've never bought a Fernando Ortega album, I suggest In the Shadow of Your Wings. It's a great representation of what makes him so good. I've probably listened to it on a hundred Sundays, and I'm still moved by his ability to deliver a lyric like nobody's business. I thank God he's still making music, and I can't wait to hang with him again. His new album Come Down, O Love Divine releases July 11, and I'll be the first in line.
Win an Original Wingfeather Saga Drawing! (UPDATE)

CORPUS CHRISTI - Amid the divisive debate over Texas' controversial abortion bill that Gov. Rick Perry signed into law in July, proponents and opponents have one goal in common — reducing the number of abortions. The bill, which spent weeks in the headlines and drew thousands of Texans to the Capitol, bans the procedure after 20 weeks and will force most of Texas' licensed abortion clinics in rural areas to close, disproportionately affecting low-income women and those who live hundreds of miles from major metro areas.

Tax cuts started to show in drops in state revenue forecasts
The tax cuts signed into law by Gov. Sam Brownback are starting to show up big time in the form of reductions in projected revenue needed to run state government. That could mean significant budget cuts ahead.
On Tuesday, state financial experts met to determine the amount of revenue available for legislators and Brownback to make budget decisions next session.
The group's revised projection of $6.17 billion for the current fiscal year is 3.8 percent less than receipts in the last fiscal year.
But the revenue estimates take a deeper hit in fiscal year 2014, when the tax cuts are fully implemented. At that point, the state is expected to collect $5.46 billion, which is nearly $1 billion less than current revenue levels.
Does that mean deep budget cuts, tax increases or a combination of the two will be needed to bridge the revenue shortfall?
Not necessarily, said Brownback's Budget Director Steve Anderson.
"We don't anticipate cuts near that amount," Anderson said.
The Brownback tax cuts will exempt the owners of 191,000 partnerships, sole proprietorships and other businesses from income taxes. The package also decreases individual income tax rates for 2013, with the top rate dropping to 4.9 percent from 6.45 percent, and increases the standard deduction.
Brownback said the cuts will grow the economy. But House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence said the new revenue estimates are more evidence "that Gov. Brownback's tax plan has put Kansas on the path to bankruptcy. As the rest of the country inches its way out of the recession, Kansas will face yet another devastating budget deficit."
At the news conference of the Consensus Revenue Estimating Group, Anderson repeated Brownback's vow to protect public school funding, which makes up half the budget.
Mark Tallman, a lobbyist with the Kansas Association of School Boards, said he was glad to hear Anderson's comments to on school funding but he noted, "To do that you would have to make very deep cuts in other areas of the budget or find additional revenues."
But Anderson said other variables exist.
The state has a healthy ending balance currently that could be used to cover some expenses, and Brownback has said he has not ruled out proposing to make permanent the temporary sales tax increase, although Republicans and Democrats have voiced opposition to that idea.
Anderson has directed state agencies to prepare budgets that include a 10 percent cut as a contingency plan in case something happened that cratered the economy.
He said unrest in the Middle East and economic problems in Europe have to be considered. "It would be naive for us to believe that we are an island that would not be affected by a meltdown in Europe," he said.
Asked if he thought the new revenue projections indicated the tax cuts were too big, Anderson said it might have been better to spread the cuts over a longer period of time, but that he was confident the plan will work.
Raney Gilliland, director of the Kansas Legislative Research Department, said there are many economic uncertainties, and that the state is experiencing slow economic growth.
The recent drought, Gilliland said, has had a negative impact on agriculture, and oil production because of the lack of water to use in horizontal drilling.

well that's a shocker. tax cuts to people who earn a lot of money leads to lower income for the state. whodathunkit?

Not necessarily, said Brownback's Budget Director Steve Anderson.

Anderson is either clueless or a liar.

We are a family of four with a sweet labradoodle. Our kids are in grade school, so we are not able to visit Palm Desert as much as we'd like to. We love to get away to the desert whenever we can. Our primary home is located in the Los Angeles area. Our first priority is our guests. We want your stay to be as comfortable and relaxing as possible. We wouldn't want our guests to stay somewhere we would not stay. We are constantly making upgrades and changes, so check back often!
Beth Femino purchased this condo in 2006
The relaxing atmosphere and beautiful views cannot be beat! It's so quiet, but just steps to one of the many community pools, or take a quick walk to the clubhouse for lunch. We looked for a condo away from the train tracks, but still had a beautiful view. We love to walk with the kids and dog to the clubhouse when we visit. Palm Valley is a very safe and friendly community.
Even though you feel like you are in an exclusive community away from everything, it's only minutes to many kid friendly activities, such as the Living Desert, The Children's Museum, and many restaurants at The River.

Newly Updated Palm Valley Condo - Gorgeous Views
The owner/manager was very courteous and helpful. We enjoyed our weekend at the condo; it was newly renovated, very comfortable, even the kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were extremely comfortable with nice linens. We enjoyed the location, it was quiet, yet convenient to the pool. The outdoor sitting area was great for relaxing and enjoying beautiful views. I would certainly consider returning for a visit and recommending it to friends.
Condo was nice, huge flat screen tv, everything you would need is there. Very beautiful view from patio, quiet, pools are nice and quiet. Owners very helpful and respond quickly. Great stay nice and relaxing.
Showers were very loud and door kept falling off, otherwise very nice place
Short flight from Calgary Palm Desert is a short drive from Palm Springs. Great accomdations easy to rent a car and wonderful variety of Golf Courses. Weather can be cooler at night and hot during the day. Palm Dersert Resort has Pools close to the villas and Grocery store Ralfs close.
We really enjoyed our stay and the condo had everything we needed. Great location and views! This made Thanksgiving weekend wonderful for us. Thank you so much, Susie Chew
A very fine but not perfect 4 star operation. Access and exit were 5 star and the local agent for this property is World Class. I liked the kitchen, smooth garage door and the size of the TV monitor. Weak batteries in the flashlight, No overhead lighting in the living/dining area and no instruction on how to operate the audio/visual equipment. Phone rates great but walk around sets didn't work well. Would rent here again.
Although home is only about an hour & a half drive away and the sole purpose for our stay was our son's wedding at the country club, we would definitely love to come back to stay on occasion. The house was immaculate, comfortable & roomier than it looked in the pictures. Any questions prior to or during our stay were promtly answered by the owner or managers. We'd recommend trying Stuft Crust Pizza Bar & Grill in La Quinta Village. Drive a few blocks down from PVCC & ride the boats in the Marriott Hotel. Palm Springs tram is worth the trip -.take snow gear with you during the winter if there is snow. Even though we will be in the area a day here and a day there to visit family, we would check availability of this rental before even considering a hotel when we're ready to spend an extended time in the area exploring.
Centrally located minutes away from El Paseo, The Living Desert, The River at Rancho Mirage, and the Children's Discovery Museum of the Desert.

Deleting backups made under another iCloud ID
Ask iLounge offers readers the opportunity to get answers to their iPod-, iPhone-, iPad-, iTunes-, or Apple TV-related questions from a member of the iLounge editorial team. We'll answer several questions here each week, and of course, you can always get help with more immediate concerns from the iLounge Discussion Forums. Submit your questions for consideration using our Ask iLounge Submit Form. We reserve the right to edit questions for grammar, spelling, and length.
Q: How do you delete a backup that was created with an ID that is no longer used? For instance. I originally purchased an iPad with my personal email address ID, then set it up with an iCloud email address ID and later did a factory restore and set it up with my personal email address ID. Is the backup done under the iCloud email address ID stranded?
- Chris
A: The backup won't be "stranded" per se, but you will need to log in from an iOS device or Mac using the old Apple ID in order to see it so that you can then delete it. Ideally, you would normally do this before switching over to the new Apple ID, but if you've forgotten to do so, it's not overly complicated to switch back.
Note that there's probably no harm at all in leaving your old iCloud backup with the other iCloud account, but if you're concerned about leaving personal information lying around in the cloud and want to remove it for privacy reasons, you can do so simply by switching back to the old account.
On an iOS device, simply go into the Settings app, select iCloud, and then scroll down and DELETE your iCloud account. Don't worry as this isn't as bad as it sounds—all of your data is already stored in iCloud, so all you're doing is deleting the local copies from your device. When prompted, you can choose to keep or delete information such as contacts and calendars; whether you choose to keep them or not, they'll simply be resented when you later switch back to your proper iCloud account. Usually selecting the "Keep" option is a bit simpler as there's no point in deleting this information.
Once you've done this, log into your old iCloud account as you normally would, and be sure to turn all of the options OFF, as you don't want to resync your data with the old account. You can then tap on the Storage & Backup option and select Manage Storage to see your old backup(s) that are stored in that account.
Tap on the backup to see more detailed information and tap the "Delete Backup" button to remove it from the iCloud account.
Once you've done this, you can then remove the iCloud account in the same manner as you did for your primary account, and log back in to your proper iCloud account, being sure to set your sync options as you had them before.
You can also do this from a computer running Mac OS X Lion or Mountain Lion by going into the iCloud section in System Preferences, signing into the old iCloud account and choosing the "Manage Storage" option. If you're concerned about removing iCloud data from your Mac, you can also do this by setting up an additional user account in OS X, switching to that account, and logging into iCloud from there—each OS X user gets their own iCloud settings.

it's word of the year time! and, as you can tell by the title, my word for 2014 is paradise. it came to me one day in december during one of my fika meet ups. it was something i read, a message to me in a random horoscope i picked up. when i saw the word, "paradise" laying on the page, in black and white, i knew that creating my own paradise – as the text suggested – was perfect. it stated exactly where i am in life as this new year begins. then, a few days after christmas i received my "message from the universe" email in my inbox which said this:
unbelievable, i thought. seriously. the word paradise showed up again, screaming at me that this was my word for 2014. but, i sat with it, not claiming it as my word of the year until the day before new year's eve…
in order to hammer down and commit to my word for the year, i needed a little self-retreat evening – 'cuz that's how i roll. so, on the 30th of december i did just that. thanks to a link from an instagram buddy, i found the perfect material on susannah conway's blog to help guide me through this process of claiming my word for 2014.
i went into our studio, lit a bunch of candles, got my journal and some pens, and a glass of wine and some music, and sat down for about 2 hours. what happened during that time was a literal letting go of and saying farewell to 2013, and preparing my vision for 2014. and, in the end, it came to be that paradise was exactly the word that fit my vision for the upcoming year.
so much has happened in the past year. so many amazing things have begun, that i felt my soul telling me to grab onto the things that have begun, and dig in. work hard. bring those dreams, which have only begun to peek out of the ground like little seeds sprouting, to fruition – this is the heart of me creating my own paradise.
so, it's not a new year of chasing new dreams. instead, it's a new year of working on the dreams which have already begun to come true. it's a new year of creating that paradise, that way of life that i yearn for and crave. things that only just started in 2013… now's the time to really make things happen. no more searching and seeking. no more trying to discover who i am (though every day is a learning process and reveals more & more of who we are throughout all of life). no more just being and asking for my soul to reveal its hidden secrets to me. no, now is the time for living. and i mean living life to the fullest. now, is the time to grow and build and become. now is the time to do things.
with a blank slate before me, i have been thinking about what paradise would look like for me this year. i went to handy dandy pinterest and my journal to gather images, words, and symbols that speak to my soul. i suppose it has been my version of vision-boarding. anyway, here are some of the things that i hope to make part of my paradise in 2014:
one more thing about paradise: yes, the word inspires and challenges me to make my life exactly how i want it to be… to live the life i want to live and to actively make that happen. but, it is also all about understanding, realizing, and be aware that paradise is already right here, right now. it is within. it is only a matter of opening my eyes, slowing down to breathe and recognize the beauty in the present moment – and celebrating every single day.
so, ultimately 2014 is about creating balance – and that creates paradise. it is a balanced life of staying connected and grounded (and for me that is through mediation, etc.) and staying active (using the inspiration i receive through meditation, etc.) to create the paradise i dream of.

Colin has some very sharp observations on place and history.
The blog can be found here: http://colintyner.wordpress.com/
Larry Cebula - 11/7/2010
OK, I will try again to list why Boston 1775 deserves the award.
1. He does primary source blogging, often going through some fascinating document and blogging it almost as it it were today's news. It is a unique and refreshing approach.
2. At the same time, Bell does a terrific job of finding and using online primary sources. His blog is a master class in the subject.
3. Bell is a good citizen of his historical community, often posting notices for historical talks and meetings in the greater Boston area.
4. Bell sometimes enters into current events when his historical expertise is relevant. See his recent posts on the Tea Party movement, or his amazing series of posts on the John Adams miniseries a few years back.
5. Many of Bell's posts are just plain delightful--see his recent "George Washington buried alive?" post for example.
When I won this award two years ago my first thought was "Damn, J.L. Bell got robbed again!" Time to set it right.

The Geographical Scope of Industrial Location Determinants: An Alternative Approach
This paper considers the estimation of the geographical scope of industrial location determinants. While previous studies impose strong assumptions on the weighting scheme of the spatial neighbour matrix, we propose a exible parametrisation that allows for di fferent (distance-based) de finitions of neighbourhood and di fferent weights to the neighbours. In particular, we estimate how far can reach indirect marginal e ffects and discuss how to report them. We also show that the use of smooth transition functions provides tools for policy analysis that are not available in the traditional threshold modelling. Keywords: count data models, industrial location, smooth transition functions, threshold models. JEL-Codes: C25, C52, R11, R30.

Learning is something I do every day. Learning is fun, and once you know how to learn, all subjects are attainable. As an Architect, my ability to learn earns my paycheck. I learn my client's business so that I can design the building that will work for them. Sometimes, I struggle to understand my client, but it's not frustrating because given space and time, I am successful. And my client is rewarded with a building that will serve them well.
Using skills I have honed in the marketplace, I have helped fourth graders at Sunset Park Elementary grasp the principles of reading and math. I have helped college students understand the mathematics of structural design. And I can help an individual develop the skill of technical writing.
As an aside, I taught basic dog training (Volhard's Motivational Method) for five years with Best Friends Obedience in Lexington, KY. It was a beautiful thing!
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I am a licensed architect in North Carolina, Kentucky and Virginia, and hold a certificate with the National Council of Architectural Review Boards. I have been self employed, specializing in the area of code compliance and research, for 16 years.
I have been working in AutoCAD since release 10 (ca 1988). I know how to manage complex drawings. I have published the booklet "100 AutoCAD commands you will like to use!" My understanding of technical drawing and drafting is excellent.
I am a self-taught guitar player. I began playing guitar at the age of 11. I was a member of a girl scout troop where singing around the campfire was a common practice. As I evolved, I started playing electric guitar, but now I have settled with a picking folk style on a classical guitar.
I may be self taught guitar, but I had four years of piano, and played cello in my high school orchestra for three years. I read music, and recently completed a self-study course, "Alfred's essentials of Music Theory" to brush up and expand my knowledge. I hope to apply to a Masters in Music program in the future.
I completed the Dale Carnegie course in 1996. I am a regular speaker at my church, as well as serving as liturgist. I enjoy speaking in public, and don't get to do enough of it!
Being comfortable and confident is one of the keys to successfully expressing your ideas as a public speaker. Organizing your thoughts is the first step to good public speaking. Good posture and eye contact are an aid. I can help you set yourself up for success!

Something's wrong with my Carambola and Atemoya
Over the course of 2 to 3 months my Carambola and Atemoya trees seem to be giving up on me. The Carambola's leaves are starting to turn yellow, are dropping and all in all looks wilted. The Atemoya's leave are just now dropping and are really yellowish. I just today fertilized it with Alaskan Fish Fertilizer. Can someone help me try to understand what's going on and how I can make it better? Many Thanks!!
Without knowing more about your soil, your watering, your prior fertilizing and amount of lighting these plants receive it is impossiblt to make this diagnosis from the pictures provided. At least I can't do it....maybe someone else can.
The atemoya looks fine. It appears to be dumping its old leaves in preparation for spring leaf-out. I think I can make out some new leaves just starting to bud out towards the top of the central leader.
The carambola looks like it might be lacking a tad bit of water or is suffering from wind desiccation. Otherwise, the fact that it's dumping leaves right now wouldn't concern me too much, as it's a normal thing this time of year.
Hey checko12,
Not to sure what is going on with your Carambola, but your Atemoya looks just fine. They tend to dump their leaves this time of year and follow it with a nice strong growth flush on the rebound. It looks pretty normal to me. Nice pics and thanks for sharing.
Hi checko12,
Your carambola with those yellow leaves, looks just like my carambola trees (still in pots) when they don't get enough water. Also, I have noticed that my carambola trees don't like tap water at all, so I try to use rain water as much as possible.
I think ur carambola is screaming for mulch to add some organic matter to that soil and keep it more humid.If i were u i will ad some compost or black kow manure before the mulch and then a deep watering every week at least until ur tree get older.Carambolas when the soil is no rich in organic matter like a regular fertilizer program ,like every 2 months or so.

The Sacramento Bee says the proposed ordinance approved Tuesday by a City Council committee would require drivers to wear collared shirts, slacks and closed-toe shoes. They must drive newer vehicles and keep them cleaner. They must accept credit cards. And they will be required to take a test to prove they can speak some English and count change correctly.
The proposal has drawn support from Yellow Cab and other large taxi operators, as well as from hotels and downtown convention executives.
But some firms don't like the proposed rules, saying they could drive smaller operators out of business.
The full council is expected to take up the issue within the next two months.

Lone Star Food
... in this case soft tacos.
By the way, yesterday I found a good drink to go with: Tequila Mockingbird.
If you care for less alcohol, beer will always do. Today, I discovered an old
Texaco gas station that was converted into a relaxed beer bar frequented by
students and artists mainly. It was a good spot to take a break.
For a sweet delight drop by a Mexican bakery. Sugar diet at its best!

It appears a solution has finally been discovered for all of the longtime major-label artists whose debut albums have collected dust while awaiting release. Case in point: Q (aka Q Da Kid), signed to So So Def for several years was recently transferred to boss Jermaine Dupri's newest label venture, Tag Records (yup, as in the body spray brand). Getting ready for his upcoming I Am Him mixtape, Q gets into Untouchable mode with some classic BK street lyricism. Half of the credit here belongs to BUStheProducer for his percussion-heavy beat and sampling of a little-known Biggie verse (from Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard's Think Big). While the I Am Him mixtape has no set release date, look for Q to finally get some long-deserved shine on his new label.
