Let me remind you that long time ago, we have been using the metric system. Haha. Need to convert from miles to kilometre to find out the exact distance. So, based on the result by Nike apps I need to improve the pace. GO! GO! GO!
We pay tribute to him for the intense struggle he waged in the preparatory period of our democratic revolution against the Chinese reformists, taking the clear-cut stand of a Chinese revolutionary democrat. In this struggle he was the standard-bearer of China's revolutionary democrats.
We pay tribute to him for the signal contribution he made in the period of the Revolution of 1911 when he led the people in overthrowing the monarchy and founding the republic.
We pay tribute to him for his signal contribution in developing the new Three People's Principles from the old Three People's Principles in the first period of co-operation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
Save for a handful of reactionaries, the people of contemporary China are all successors in the revolutionary cause to which Dr. Sun Yat-sen dedicated himself.
We have completed the democratic revolution left unfinished by Dr. Sun Yat-sen and developed it into a socialist revolution. We are now in the midst of this revolution.
Things are always progressing. It is only forty-five years since the Revolution of 1911, but the face of China has entirely changed. In another forty-five years, that is, by the year 2001, at the beginning of the 21st century, China will have undergone an even greater change. It will have become a powerful industrial socialist country. And that is as it should be. China is a land with an area of 9,600,000 square
kilometres and a population of 600 million, and it ought to make a greater contribution to humanity. But for a long time in the past its contribution was far too small. For this we are regretful.
However, we should be modest -- not only now, but forty-five years hence and indeed always. In international relations, the Chinese people should rid themselves of great-nation chauvinism resolutely, thoroughly, wholly and completely.
Dr. Sun was a modest man. I heard him speak on many occasions and was impressed by the force of his character. From the way he applied himself to the study both of China's past and present and of foreign countries, including the Soviet Union, I knew he was a man with a receptive mind.
He worked heart and soul for the transformation of China, devoting his whole life to the cause; of him it can be justly said that he gave his best, gave his all, till his heart ceased to beat.
Like many great figures in history who stood in the forefront guiding the march of events, Dr. Sun, too, had his shortcomings. These shortcomings should be explained in the light of the historical conditions so that people can understand; we should not be too critical of our predecessors.
My background in community organizing combines with art practice to fuel a strong interest in engaging with people and media in what I term aesthetic action.
Mapping, storytelling, dialogue, guided walks, video, sound, music, dance, printmaking, sculpture, and performance are media we have combined with intentionally designed experiential processes aimed at inviting people to engage, interact, participate, and express themselves.
I think often these days about how artist, educator, and writer Ted Purves defined social practice art: that which produces a space of encounter. I am most interested in framing experiences for people to connect – with themselves, each other, issues they care about, their places.
With this aesthetic of relationship at center, our work goes further, pointing to action participants might choose in response to changes in thought or feeling that relational experiences may bring.
I’d love to hear what you think – about the work on this site, and about art as a way for artists and communities to engage toward positive change!
On Time and Voice: thoughts on “rules” for artists working in and with communities November 18, 2015
I’m the only real estate agent in the area with 30 years past title insurance experience. That experience has been extremely helpful for both buyers and sellers. I know about access, easements, legal descriptions, chains of title, reservations and probate matters. I worked daily to resolve title issues in order to get buyers and sellers to the closing table, for residential sales to complicated commercial developments. It has proved invaluable, in heading off or solving problems that sometimes arise during a real estate transaction.
Since moving to Ponderosa Realty in 2008, I am so happy to work with buyers and sellers with “boots on the ground” rather than mostly paper at the title company. By far, it has been the best part of my real estate career. I’m passionate about providing the best service possible and truly love what I do!
*Utilize up-to-date market information to let you know what your property might sell for based on market reports, Comparative Market Analysis and current market conditions.
*Go above and beyond- I have taken sellers out with me to view the comparable cabins for sale – this way they could see the competition first hand and price their property competitively. I’ve checked on vacant cabins for out of state sellers, provided and escorted vendors for repairs when necessary, and even helped sellers move.
*Market your property- Because 95% of buyers are looking online, photos are critical in presenting your property, I strive to have the best photos available and make sure that your listing is marketed online on several internet sites as well as in print to ignite interest and ultimately get it sold.
*Utilize up-to-date market information so that you know what comparable properties have sold for and feel confident in your offer price, based on market reports, Comparative Market Analysis and current market conditions.

*Follow-up with you, during the searching process as well as after you have purchased your mountain property, cabin or home. Our relationship does not end after the sale, I’m there should you have any questions or concerns- I want to build lasting, lifelong relationships with my clients.
