For 'family business', there is a long history of world-wide family business and the first well defined family firm appeared in manufacturing in the United States between the 1870s and the 1890s and was stimulated by 'the second industrial revolution' (Chandeler and Hikino, 1997). The topics relate to family businesses are hot research topics for researchers and scholars focusing on. There were numbers of past literatures of family business and mainly focused on the western family firms and most of them were done by the western researchers and scholars. In this chapter, the secondary resources of related research literatures of family business were collected by analyzing some journal articles such as 'Family Business Review', which could be download and reviewed through searching engine Google Scholars, and some published text books were also used as theory support. As the topic of research is about Chinese family business, there are some Chinese text books and journal articles such as 'Asia Pacific Journal of Management' also used for collecting information.
Typical character of family business: family involvement in ownership, management and performance
The definition of family business were defined in different perspectives by different researchers and scholars, and generally most of them argued the family business is the integration of family and business, and the family business is the business with family involvement in the part of ownership and management (Handler, 1989). Inside family-owned businesses, family members are hired and playing different roles in the enterprises. There are number of researches attempted to understand whether if family involvement in ownership and in management could affect the performance of family businesses (Mazzola and Sciascia, 2008). The presence of the family in the ownership and management of the firm can either be one of the advantages or disadvantages for company competitiveness (Moores and Barrett, 2003). According to the edition of Ram and Holliday's 'Keep It in the Family' by Chittenden and Robertson (1991), the intensive use of familial labour resources means the management of the enterprises in the family context. And the use of this kind of labour resources in the key positions of the businesses can serve to constrain management, where the managing power is highly controlled by the family. In contrast, once the family owed the highly controlled central management power, the family labour resources could also help the business achieve benefit by using 'flexible' familial ties, where all the relationships between family members and friends or the relates could provide variety resources, not only the labor resources, but also the resources of technology, financial capital, information.
On the other hand, it also imposed requirements which contradicted economic diffusion, when the family involved in the performance of the business, empirical studies such as the one from Morck et al., (2006) conclude that the result could be bad due to reasons as the family's wish for capital preservation, firmness of long-term satisfactions, and risk aversion. According to authors like Schulze et al (2003), they argued that once the ownership of the business is concentrated in the hands of a single family or a number of family members, there will potentially have a negative impact on profit of the business with inefficiencies, that the owner-managers' desire for family harmony and personal loyalty, coupled with ineffective control authorities create inefficiencies hurt the management of the business.
With empirical researches, Sciascia and Mazzola (2008) found there was negative relationship between family involvement in management and performances after running regression analyses on data drawn from 620 family firms in Italy. Once the family involvement in management is high, they suggested the family business owners should pay more attention on the nature of relationship between the family and the business, whether the working ability and the position in management is matched or not. When the family and business combined together, this form often leads to deep contradictions, and consequently changes of business leadership, it would cause the risk to the firm's survival (Rose, 1993). Sharma (2004) also argued that the success of the family business should be achieved depending on effective management on integration of family and business.
Overlapping circle models – useful tool for defining the family businesses as system entities
Discussions of the relationship between the family system and business system on the performance, strategy or growth of family business referenced the global adaptation of family business in China (Yeung, 2000), in strategy of financial decision makings or the business growth (Romano, et. al, 2000). From the past literature, the two or three overlapping circle models (figure 1a and b) were used for understanding and analyzing the family business as a distinct strategic entity (Hollander and Elman, 1988), and how the subsystems circles of family, manager and ownership contributes to the system. These models are 'the models for picturing family business and business as interlinking systems that explain the competitive tension in strategy making' (Habbershon, Williams and MacMillan, 2003).

Figure 1: Overlapping circles models.
Moreover, by using the overlapping circles models as organizational behavior models, complex individual and organizational phenomena associated with the overlapping subsystems was clearly identified with the stakeholder perspectives, roles, and responsibilities (Habbershon, Williams and MacMillan, 2003). These overlapping circle models helped the professionals from all disciplines, for example, business consultants, family counselors and also the business owners have clear image of the family business and think more about themselves (Gersick, et. al, 1997).
Characteristics of typical Chinese management model in Chinese family businesses
In Chinese business, there were common characteristics of management model. Chinese family business is also the business managed with typical Chinese management model, and it shared the similar management model with family-centered management. According to Jean Lee (1996), there are four main characteristics of Chinese management that are distinctive from Western management which reflect the Chinese culture characteristics and are persistent in most of the Chinese organizations: human-centeredness, family-centeredness, centralization of power, and small size. These characters are described as following:
Human-Centeredness. In Chinese management, human is the key operators in running businesses, stated in the centre position and played very important roles. The researcher Sheng (1979) described that 'For Chinese, the business relationship is always subsumed under the moralistic notion of friendship, loyalty, and trust worthiness.' Doing business is about building the trust and loyalty between different organizations and humans. Humans are the center of concern, and when making the management decisions, all the consideration about the trading people are important, and the effective using of social network of human relationship make contributions to the business decision makings. 'Any management decisions have to take emotion into considerations' (Lee, 1996).
Family-Centeredness. In Chinese culture, family is extraordinary and especially in Chinese organizations it 'has exerted the most significant influence on the individual's value system and role expectations' (Lee, 1996, p64). Many Chinese organizations are family-run businesses, that family relationships are inevitably brought into the organizations and make the organizations running in the form of a family (Lee, 1996). Once the family is playing in key positions of business, it is about the ownerships and the management of the family members in family business, where family comes first and business come second.
Centralization of Power. It is about controlling business by using strong power on management. Lee (1996) argued that in Chinese organizations, the managing power is usually controlled by two distinct levels: the power core controlled by the business owner or a small number of people, usually family members; and the second level formed by the employees, who are family relatives, or totally outsiders. In Chinese family business, the power of governance and management is usually centralized by the family members, especially on the management decision making. The key strategic decision making were normally a family affair conducted with family members and beyond the reach of non-family member. The head of family, usually also the top managers of the business has the final say in these decisions (Tsang, 2001). The internal system of coordination and control of family business is highly personal, and tight control is exerted on financial and production management by family members, Chinese trust family members more than outsiders. Extensive networking and relational contracting between family and non-family members are used when dealing with the external environment (Redding, 1990).
Small size. The size of the organization usually impact on the management of the Chinese organizations. Most of the Chinese organizations start up with small numbers of employees, small amount of capitals and few business experiences. This kind of small size provides the simple management for the business managers. And also could be a kind of advantages for small Chinese organizations. The primary advantage according to the small size is simple management. When comparing with large businesses, small business has less number of employees, which could save money for company developing and spend less operating costs. Following by the researches of Beaver (1984) and Jennings & Beaver (1993), small businesses could achieve the maximum goals in short term. By using the size advantage, this kind of business could make changes on their internal operations and performances quickly to avoid the big risks and make suitable adoptions frequently to fit the external environmental changes.
Trust and 'sustaining cycle of trust' model within family businesses
There were numbers of literature on trust on different disciplines, and based on a cross-disciplinary review, trust was defined as 'a psychological state comprising the intention to accept vulnerability based upon positive expectation of the intentions or behavior of anther' (Rousseau, et. al, 1998, p395). Trust is a kind of relationship usually between different people, and refers to a person's belief that individuals engaged in exchanges will make honest efforts to uphold their commitments and usually relates with loyalty, and it depends on person's willingness that decide to rely on others and keep this kind of relationship as long as they can (Rousseau, et.al, 1998). In family businesses, trust is centralized in the enterprises where a group of individuals are connected through family relationship such as bloody tie and marriage, and this kind of linkage could be the source of competitive advantage for the firms (Sundarmurthy, 2008) where it 'often represents a fundamental basis for cooperation' ( Steier, 2001, p.354).
As trust is a kind of interpersonal trust, it could be difficult to sustain even when it was achieved. It would be disrupted by both internal and external factors, and the accrued changes from either side of this relationship, once the commitment broke the trust is ended. In trying to understand why trust remains such an intangible and transient resource within many organizations, researchers have focused attention on identifying some barrier of trust that impedes the development of trust (Karmer, 1999), which include the distrust and suspicion. For distrust, it has been defined by Grovier (1994) that it is a lack of confidence in the other, Distrust has been
defined as a .lack of confidence in the other, a concern that the other may act
so as to harm one, that he does not care about one.s welfare or intends to act
harmfully, or is hostile. (Grovier 1994, p. 240). Suspicion has been viewed as
one of the central cognitive components of distrust (Deustch 1958) and has
been characterized as a psychological state in which perceivers .actively entertain
multiple, possibly rival, hypotheses about the motives or genuineness
of a person.s behavior. (Fein & Hilton 1994, p. 168).
Theoretically, in order to sustain the trust relations, five corresponding virtues: loyalty, filial piety, faithfulness, care, and sincerity should be practiced carefully. According to research Sundarmurthy(2008), there is a 'sustaining cycle of trust' model (Figure 2) clearly shows the whole trust system in different stages of the family firms based on the integration of trust literature and family business literature, which include three aspects – interpersonal trust in early stage, competence trust in middle stage and systems trust in late stage. Different researchers and scholars gave different basis premises of the model, for example, Child (1998) argued that 'the trust cycle is regenerative and the family firm will continue to revisit each of the three aspects of trust after the initial cycle' (Sundaramurthy, 2008, p92) and the three aspects are connected to each other.
Figure 2: Sustaining Cycle of Trust
(1)Early stage: interpersonal trust and family business – Argued by some researchers and scholars such as Carney (2005), the interpersonal trust among the members of the family is based on the personal commonality of experiences, history, kinship, and familiarity, which is the relationship of trust of oneself. In family business, the trust level is usually 'high' in the early stage, as the family is a common identifying factor, the family members usually make contributions of capital and other resources to the firms and willing to make commotion in the name of the general family welfare (Gersick et l, 1997). On the other hand, when the trust in early stage of the family business is in depth high level, some possible risks about 'blind' trust will occur and will hinder the growth of the firms.
(2)Middle stage: competence trust and outside influences in family business – Competence trust is the second form of trust, which is not only the form developed form interpersonal trust but also to complement it. It is a belief that the working members with the firms are not only willing to taking the job but capable of performing the job effectively (Mishra, 1996). In the family businesses, those members who are not actively involved in the business or not the members of the family seek to have confidence and are capable of running the business system and adapting the keep changed environmental needs. And this kind of confidence can be fostered when the family business system is open to outside influences. In the middle stage of family business, the developing of the business requires the changes on the management system, and hiring outsiders or the non-family members can offer a family business access to external resources such as information experiences and wider networks (Aronoff and Word, 1996). For example, in family business, the adoption of professional managers is the way of hiring outsiders on management system. The outsiders can be vital in dealing with the costs of role blurring on family and business in integrated family business, and could help the family business owners on making decisions (Ward, 2004), which help the family business grow and develop.
(3)Late stage: system trust and transparent polices in family business – System trust is the third dimension of trust and is vital for the sustaining cycle of trust in a family business, when the firm is sustaining in late stage (Luhmann, 1988). In this form of trust, differentiating with interpersonal trust, it is impersonal and connects to the trust on the systems and processes, and it can contribute 'as a source of trust for a wide network of individuals, introduce some potential resources such as active family members, and some outsiders like potential partners, non-family employees and suppliers (Sundaramurthy, 2008). In family business, the transparent rules can clarify the roles and responsibilities of the family firm actors enhancing the trust in the working of the family business system. And conducting clear policies in family business enables the family members discover the importance to them whether as a family or an individual. Especially in successful family business, there are transparent compensation polices established offer opportunities to build system trust and help the businesses manage the expectations of both current and future generations, such as internal employees and external shareholders (Harvey and Evans, 1994).
Transition from founder management to professional management in family business
In the governance view of firms that operated with founder management, the researchers Gedajlovic et al argued the authority in this kind of firm is largely conditioned by the coupling of ownership and it tends to be centralized, control of the firm is vested in the hands of the founder. In family business, the founders are usually a number of family members or a family, and usually operated as the owner-managers in family business then the management is usually centralized. In founder management firms, 'the founders are individuals who demonstrate the alertness, character and temperament needed to exploit a discovered opportunity' (Kiezner, 1985), and also the are usually the main resources of the firm's initial equity capital in start-up stage, typically make contributions of providing labour and technical expertise, and hold the decision rights afforded top managers (Gedajlovic, et al., 2004), therefore, the founder has largely unchallenged discretion to share(or not share) authority with family members and trusted associations or corporation with the family members, and directly affect the decision making of firms. This kind of tight relationship between the founders and firms make the firms highly prone to failure (Gedajlovic, et al., 2004) when the firms were over relied on the resources provided by the founders. When these resources are no longer able to support the firms to find more opportunities and hit a juncture in their evolutions, the firms need to adopt outside resources to cross the 'threshold' to survive, where the firms are transiting to professional management firms (Daily and Dalton, 1992). The researchers Zhang and Ma (2009) defined the professionalization in family business as it 'refers to the adoption of non-kin (outside) managers to fill management positions, especially the chief executive officer's potion. The adoption of outside managers signifies the separation of ownership and control, or at least dilution of family control in the actual management of the business.'
On the other hand, when the founder management firms are crossing the threshold to becoming a professional management firm is possible, the transition process is difficult because of the legacy of founder management. In family business, the transforming to professional management means the change of business management team by adopting outside non-family managers, and introduces a new set of values and culture of the new professional managers that often incompatibles with the firm's initial founding values and culture, which would possibly diluted personalization and idiosyncratic nature of founder management of the family business. Moreover, transformation will possibly compromise the potential benefits of the founder-manager and the founder's opportunity costs may remain uncompensated, this kind of unbalanced change would make the founders resist transformation and the battle between the founders and new owners-professional managers would affect the transition (Gedajlovic, et al., 2004).
Small business performance
There is no official definitions of the small business, and the related definitions of small businesses were clued since the government departments and researchers have a wide variety of definitions depending on the kind of economic activities have been studied (Cross, 1983; Curran, 1986). According to the researchers Curran and Blackburm (1994), small business could be indentified in the economic perspectives in two different contexts: qualitative definitions, which identified the behaviors, captures by distinctive from large firms; and quantitative definition, which identify the small firms with numerical factors, such as the number of employees and turnover profits. For small family business, it could be defined in the integration term of literature of small business and family business, which contains both major characteristics of small businesses and family businesses.
In small family business, the management usually controlled by one head manager from the family or the business owner, this kind of hierarchical control system make the management system centralized controlled by the family. As described by Jennings and Beaver (1997), the management process in small businesses could be characterized by nature of managerial activities. Once the business is during the developing period, the management process is running following the personality set and experiences of the key players (entrepreneur, business owner, and/or owner -manager). In small family businesses, the three key players usually combined as one player, which could run the whole managing process separately.
There were a huge number of past literatures of family businesses by different researchers and scholars, most of the researches were done with western views and only few discussed about the Chinese family businesses. Relating with the social reality and personal analytics of the researchers and scholars, the theoretical analyzing of family business is dynamic and need be more explored later with the changes of social environment. There were very few researches about small family business in China in past decades, and in the following chapter writer is going to using proper research methodology to do the research and then discuss some findings about small family businesses in mainland China in the following chapters.

Teacher Learning to Enact Productive Discussions in Mathematics and Literacy
Rigorous classroom discussions are clearly critical to student learning anda set of key teaching practices for setting up and orchestrating such discussion have been identified. But little is known about how teachers learn to enact these practices. In particular, in coaching contexts, we lack knowledge regarding how teacher thinking that is catalyzed in one setting (lesson planning and lesson debrief sessions) transfers, enables, or shapes teacher thinking during classroom instruction. The purpose of the proposed interdisciplinary work is to develop, iteratively refine, and test a cognitive framework that describes mechanisms by which teacher-coach interactions shape teachers' uptake of discussion practices during lessons. We will begin our search for cognitive mechanisms with analogical reasoning, a highly-studied process that has proven to be central in meaning-making, schema-development, and transfer in various areas of professional case-based learning. Our research questions for teacher learning:

"With God On Our Side" lyrics - JOAN BAEZ
Oh my name it is nothin'
My age it means less
The country I come from
Is called the Midwest
I's taught and brought up there
The laws to abide
And the land that I live in
Has God on its side.
Oh the history books tell it
They tell it so well
The cavalries charged
The Indians fell
The cavalries charged
The Indians died
Oh the country was young
With God on its side.
The Spanish-American
War had its day
And the Civil War too
Was soon laid away
And the names of the heroes
Are us to memorize
With guns in their hands
And God on their side.
Well the First World War, boys
It came and it went
And The reason for fighting
I never did get
But I learned to accept it
And Accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead
When God's on your side.
And Second World War
It Came to an end
We forgave the Germans
And called them our friends
Though they murdered six million
In the ovens they fried
Now The Germans now too
Have God on their side.
For I've learned to hate Russians
All through my whole life
If another war comes
It's them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side.
But now we got weapons
Of the chemical dust
(And) it fire them we're forced to
Then fire them we must
One push of the button
And a shot the world wide
And you never ask questions
When God's on your side.
For many dark hours
I thought about this
That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you
You'll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side.
And now as I'm leavin'
I'm weary as Hell
The confusion I'm feelin'
Ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
They fall to the floor
As God is on our side
He'll stop the next war.

Turns out some of the ingredients in our sun cream that keep us safe are busily bleaching coral reefs. So much so that countries like Mexico have taken to barring sunseekers wearing the wrong sunscreens from taking a dip in their marine parks.
Removing the most offending filters (as suntan lotions such as Caudalie Beautifying Suncare Oil SPF30, from Dsh97, and Soleil Toujours Organic Sheer Sunscreen Mist SPF30, from Dhs147, do) sorts out the coral.
But as that still leaves plenty of additional ingredients that other reef creatures wouldn't choose to dine on, "reef-safe" claims are, frankly, overstated. Being "reef-friendly", the (more truthful) term REN uses for its Clean Screen Mineral SPF30, from Dhs138, is the best we can hope for – and for now, that's pretty terreefic. (Sorry.)

White Label? Wholesale? Private Label?
By Terry Link, Owner, Maxx Relief
I'm asked all the time about the differences between these three categories. Being in the CBD business, which is experiencing such rapid growth, I've come to realize that the majority of CBD entrepreneurs, have little to no background in the packaging industry. Product labeling and packaging is one of the most important aspects to establishing a successful brand, espcially in the competitive CBD market.
Personally, I come from a distribution background where the majority of my customers had years of packaging and purchasing experience. So, I would like to share what I've learned over the years from the professionals. Below are short descriptions of each category with more in-depth information just a click away. Let's dig into the basics of each category! Or call us if you would like to discuss the options. We would be glad to answer any questions you may have.
White labeling generally means that you want to create a product or line of products with your brand name on it.
Wholesale means that a business buys goods in large quantities directly from manufacturers or distributors, warehouses them, and resells them to other businesses.
Basically, Private Labeling involves developing your own product, made to your specifications, and packaging it for sale, but you don't want to build your own factory to make it.
I got a bottle of Maxx Relief for my 13 year old Husky cross at a pet fair. His back legs aren't working real well. Before I had a chance to try it, my vet recommended a different CBD in chew form. I tried that first but it didn't seem to help my dog. Then I tried the Maxx Relief. It seemed to really help my husky; he actually started chasing around the yard again. I used it till I ran out. Then I tried two other brands of liquid. Nothing worked as well as the Maxx Relief.

OMG… My scare!
I had one hello of a scare the other night. We had our staff Christmas party at a local Mexican restaurant. It had been raining, and upon entering, the floor inside was extremely slick. It felt greasy & wet. Needless to say, when I walked it both of my crutches slipped on the floor, and flew out from underneith me. I took one big hop w/my good leg and grabbed onto the cashiers counter. My bad leg, in a soft cast w/splint, was protected but it felt like my left foot shot straight up! I know it did not b/c of my hard splint stopped any type of movement upward, although it sure felt like it!
Today I showered and got a great foot massage from my better half, and she noticed some distinct bruising on my foot. I wonder if it was from my "scare"??? Has anyone else out there experienced a scare like this regardless if it was good or bad?
By the way… I am only 9 days away from going into a boot (Vacocast Achilles boot)! This nearly 6 weeks of NWB has felt like an eternity:(

Group work is a time-tested strategy in many classrooms, but educators are starting to rethink how to evaluate these projects not just on the content students learn, but the skills they hone to work in teams as adults.
Collaborative problem-solving—the ability to work with others on new and complex problems—is one of the most highly sought-after skills by employers. It's required under both the common-core math and reading standards and the Next Generation Science Standards. But it's also notoriously tricky to pull off a project that builds both students' cognitive and social skills as they meet content standards.
"As teachers, we assume students know how to collaborate," said Diana Lowe, a curriculum director for math and science in the Texarkana, Ark., school district, which adopted project-based learning…

text: Josef Stalin, one of history's most infamous monsters, created a devastating social climate in Russia during his age of power. Like many other dictators throughout history, Stalin ascended to power using brute force, sparing no one that stood in his way. However, Stalin's leadership was unlike any other due to the extreme repression of rights, the ruthless and unrelenting violence, and the heightened feelings of paranoia and suspicion.Stalin's key goal as the leader of Russia was to collectivize the land and agriculture, as well as to increase industrialism. As he advanced upon this objective, the peasants of Russia lost progressively more and more freedom. Although Lenin supported voluntary collectivization, Stalin made it mandatory that Russian citizens relocate to communes. Once the peasants were established in the communes, where they lived in substandard conditions, Stalin proceeded to eliminate their rights as workers. Workers in industry and agriculture were knowingly underpaid, as there was no designated or set wage. Collectivization ended up being instrumental in depriving peasants of the fruits of their hard labor. Due to Stalin's exceedingly high production estimates established by the Five Year Plan (1927-1933), the communes were pushed to extreme production expectations. If a certain farm or industry did not generate enough profit, it was common that the individual laborers were not paid. Needless to say, the guidelines and expectations imposed upon the peasants led them to feel constricted and resentful towards the State.As resentment for the Soviet leadership mounted, it became increasingly common for Stalin to control the "anti-Soviets" via force and violence. Leon Trotsky's assertion that "'a river of blood' separated Stalin's regime from that of Lenin" (Rogovin, 3), was proven valid, as the death toll under Stalin soared into the millions. About one million Russians were shot from the years 1935 to 1938, and between 1945 and 1950 millions more were sent to labor camps. Additionally, Stalin and other Soviet leaders signed to order to execute 25,700 Polish intelligentsia in 1940 (Qualls, 2). These and other massive executions added to the total death counts in terror-stricken Russia. In the words of Stalin in the year 1945, "The death of one man is a tragedy. The death of millions is a statistic," (Rogovin, 3). Stalin's infamy was made certain by his sheer ruthlessness and brutality in the years of his reign.One of the most important facets of the understanding of Stalin is to recognize his sense of paranoia and suspicion. Soon after Stalin established his power in Russia in the 1930's, he began to closely monitor the activities of his friends and enemies alike. Stalin, ultra-sensitive to opposition, was distrustful of everyone around him. Stalin distinctly believed that anyone, be it peasant or party member, could have been seeking to undermine his power. For example, Sergei Kirov, an active and influential member of the Politburo, remained consistently loyal to Stalin in that he declined the position of Secretary-General and reported his action to Stalin. Despite this demonstration of allegiance, Kirov was assassinated due to Stalin's feelings that Kirov threatened his position in the State. Also, when party members expressed even a slight hesitance about such policies as collectivism or the Five Year Plan, Stalin viewed the opinions as personal attacks. This resulted in a number of show trials and party purges, illuminating the paranoid and repressive ruling style that remained through his entire period of influence.The name Stalin, even today, provokes an image of repression and tragedy. However, it is important to study the distinction between these images that are common to those of a dictator and the true extent of Stalin's regime. Stalin implemented programs that eliminated the rights of the peasants, utilized unwarranted violence to achieve his lofty goals, and eliminated any supposed opposition at the slightest provocation. Stalin's rule over Russia was made distinct from any other dictatorial leadership because he took all of these things to an extreme.

Performance art can be a profound experience, for the artist and the audience.
Last year, Colorado Springs mixed-media and performance artist Jasmine Dillavou felt the urge to make a piece about reclaiming her power. During a First Friday opening reception at Kreuser Gallery, she performed "Reclamation of Sif," a nod to the Greek tale of Sif, whose beautiful long hair was shorn off by the trickster Loki.
Strong, magical portraits of women dominate work of Colorado Springs artist
Dillavou took a "ritualistic spiritual bath," she says, in front of strangers, by placing herbs and crystals into the bath water where she sat and chanted. And then? She chopped off about a foot of her dark, wavy hair as audience members looked on. She placed her hair in the tub and stepped back from it as a way to feel cleansed and powerful.
"I needed to make it in your face and make people sit there as I went through the performance," Dillavou says. "With a painting, it's like here's a beautiful piece you can sit and look at it. With a performance, it's like asking someone to sit side by side with you and have that experience with you."
Not all of Dillavou's work is so ephemeral, though. Her latest pieces will be displayed in a new exhibit opening during First Friday Downtown at Kreuser Gallery. In "Capturing Essence," a collaborative body of work by Dillavou, Clark Valentine and Tyler Hays, Dillavou will display paper caste sculptures of items from her childhood. The opening reception is from 5 to 9 p.m. People can reserve a 20-minute slot for up to seven people. The exhibit also can be viewed online at abigailkreusergallery.com.
Like the previous three months, Virtual First Friday will make a $50 matching gift with any remote purchase of $50 or more made from a participating gallery, such as Kreuser. July's event will support #BlackLivesMatter, with matching gifts going toward community organizations Poetry719, COS Black Business Network and My Black Colorado.
"They're things that talk about growing up in a Latinx household," Dillavou says. "They're soft and pretty items. They're on the softer end of the work I've made in the past few years. A little less aggressive, intense and political."
But just because her current work shifted into a new realm, don't expect it to stay that way. She has no plans to deviate from her activism, which took hold simply due to her cultural background.
"As a Latina and person who's had more experiences than others in the world, I don't have a choice," she says. "If I make art about being Latina, it's already political art. If I talk about my experiences, it becomes a statement. It's a good thing. It can be tokenizing and hard to navigate, but it's good to have stories for people to learn from."
Local woman books shows, makes albums at popular music venue in Colorado Springs
Dillavou, whose family is from Puerto Rico, has made art since she was a little girl, evidenced by the old pictures of her painting naked in her backyard. She graduated from Manitou Springs High School and got a bachelor's in visual and performing arts at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs.
Being Boricua, a term for Puerto Ricans, Hurricane Maria in 2017 kick-started her passion for activism and storytelling and the ways people tell their stories to maintain their history and stay connected to their culture.
"Art can be a tool for activism and changing the world," she says.
In 2018's "100 Potions for Puerto Rico," she crafted 90 individual bottles, and featured 10 more bottles made by strangers in Puerto Rico as a way to speak about their experiences. The project raised money and awareness for the Caribbean island and unincorporated U.S. territory after the devastating hurricane.
Colorado Springs autistic artist is youngest exhibitor ever in Art on the Streets
"She gets people thinking outside the box," says Abigail Kreuser, owner of Kreuser Gallery. "Her art is always doing something impactful. She wants to educate people and make them more aware of what's going on around them — things they don't really think about."
Dillavou's resume is rife with performance art pieces, including "Natural Law," which she also performed at Kreuser Gallery earlier this year. She wore a white dress, and as she danced in the gallery, she smeared clay she made from red soil collected in Manitou Springs all over her body and her face.
"Natural law explores grief through the lens of femininity," she says in an artist statement on her website, jasminedillavou.com. "Using red soil as a feminine icon, the body is moved through patterns of soil application — burying and unburying over and over until one feels completely consumed by Earth and all her powers."
Performance art requires some chutzpah. Dillavou creates her pieces while audience members sometimes stand inches away. It calls for extreme vulnerability on the part of the performer.
"It feels like a sacred space where you do your most secret sacred things and you've invited strangers into it," she says. "They feel that, too. They wonder if they're supposed to be watching this."

of the Day: Sertoman of the Day The Front Range Governor of 2014/2015, Ken Kelley, was our SOD for the day. Ken Kelley was born in Denver around January 25, 1978, his Mother and G-Mother were also born in Denver. He attended Asbury and Lincoln Elementary, Baker Middle and South High School. Although he didn't graduate from South, he did receive his GED. Seems he got a 1973 Plymouth and decided to drive around instead of going to school. He did attend Metro and Red Rocks but didn't graduate there either. He met his wife, Katherine, who has attended The School of Mines and D.U. They have lived in Centennial and been married 11 yrs, have a 6yr. old daughter and a dog. Ken informed us that his mother's cousin is married to Doug Harder's brother. Not sure what that makes Ken to Doug.
Ken has been in telemarketing, mattress sales and now has his own Allstate Insurance Agency located at the Chase building on Cherokee and Hampton, Englewood, CO 80133 and phone is 303-781-1110 He claims to be an artist, poet and music instrument player. He has no military and John Pifer brought him into the club. Ken is big on getting new blood into the club so let's see what we can do. AND the question of the day: What river was he born near? The South Platte of course. Listen to Ken Kelley.mp3
Program: Randy Smith introduced DAVID HARROWER, an avid fitness advocate.
Along with exercise is the need to eat right. Avoid "fast foods such as rice and potatoes and eat foods that are "slow" to digest, such as fruit and vegetables. David says there are over 100,000 diet books on Amazon.com and most diets are designed to be very short time diets. These diets work mostly by removing water and not fat.
David recommended the book "Mastering the Zone: The Next Step in Achieving SuperHealth and Permanent Fat Loss" because it balances carbohydrates, fat and protein. Most people don't need a lot of protein, 4oz of meat is probably all you need at a meal. The reason is that protein is not stored well in the body.

One rather unpredictable element in outdoor weddings is the presence of bugs. Whereas I can look at the weather forecast and be able to anticipate the likelihood of rain, sun and wind; bugs are an entirely different matter. Bugs come in many different sizes and types. They can come alone or in swarms. They can just be an annoyance or they can have some bite. Sometimes you see them, sometimes you don't. But one way or another, they will bug you!
I was in a clearing near the Wakefield Inn just north of Ottawa. It was a wonderful day. The weather was perfect. The couple wanted to have the wedding near the creek close to the Inn. This would provide a very serene and natural setting for the wedding. The bride processed down the trail towards us to the sound of a flute that was played by her friend. All was going well, until the flutist had to stop because a mosquito decided to have a meal of her. The distinct SLAP against her skin startled us a bit. I knew then it was going to get interesting.
The couple were now together and I was into the ceremony. I looked up to the groom and saw that spiders were descending upon the couple. With a good natured swipe, they cleared them so we could go on. As we were into the vows, the groom then turns to me and reaches for my shoulder. He gingerly pick up an Daddy longlegs spider and sent it on its way. We finished the ceremony with no more interruptions. As I was getting into my car, I had to remove a caterpillar from my pant leg.
The arrival of August also announces the arrival of wasps. There is nothing more disconcerting that have one or two wasps buzzing around you during the ceremony. The ceremony usually degrades into screeching brides and desperate flailing of arms in an attempt to drive them off. I occasionally make contact with the wasps with my book.
There are a few things one can do to avoid bugs. Obviously, natural settings like gardens, parks and woods are their domain. If you want to have a ceremony in these locations, then consider timing nowhere near dusk. Unfortunately, they really love the scent of the freshly cut flowers in the bouquets and boutonnières. Fogging with pesticides can be an option. Alternatively, have lots of citronella candles lit. Personally, I wear my favourite cologne, "Eau de Deep Woods Off!"

women's RESERVES match Report: ROUND 2
CAULFIELD GRAMMARIANS VS old camberwell grammarians
Match Report:
By Sam Tonkin
Coming off a big win last week, the CGFCW Ressies were looking to make it two from two, while Old Camberwell were looking for redemption after losing last week to Old Collegians.
The game got off to a slow start, with Caulfield only managing to score two behinds to Camberwell's single goal. Lou Cosgrave starred early with unrelenting pressure and numerous heavy tackles despite her small stature.
Darci 'Sooks' Welsh starred in the second quarter, with non-stop run-and-carry through the midfield, and a spectacular overhead mark on top of the forward fifty.
Unfortunately, Camberwell's strong defence only allowed a single Caulfield behind for the quarter, while scoring 1.1 themselves.
Star ruck Kelly Cosgrave came off early with injury, not to be seen for the rest of the day, leaving Sigrid 'Mama' Pitkin, Elise Di Sipio, and newcomer Tegan Sacha to cover the ground for the rest of the match.
The third was another low scoring affair, with sisters Abbie 'Sauce' and Emma 'Rowdy' Hants sweeping defensively through the middle and backline, respectively. Their pressure prevented the score from blowing out further during the quarter.
Old Camberwell started the last with a bang, kicking three unanswered goals and a couple of behinds.
The quick start was too much for the Fields, who were unable to match their ball movement and conversion rate.
With their heads held high, the Ressies have a few tough lessons to take into the next game against Old Xavs, who are coming off a 100-point win over RMIT WFA.
Caulfield Grammarians 0 - 4 - 4 defeated by Old Camberwell Grammarians 6 - 5 - 41

Awoken at 3.41am by a crying toddler.
He's been doing so well. He's actually been sleeping all night, every night for, oh, about three weeks now. Not so long that I've actually got comfortable with the idea and can fall into a deeper sleep where I can't be woken by a leaf blowing up the street. But long enough to have got used to it and be getting uninterrupted by others sleep.
(Course, I haven't been sleeping, but that's not due to toddler.)
Worse is the horrible cry, followed by an equally horrible cough that woke me. His cot had been invaded by a demented seal with a nasty cough. And horrible cry.
Having zero energy to battle … anything really, I hauled him into our bed, where I spent the remaining Sleep Designated Hours listening to his rasping breath and flying into a panic every time I couldn't hear him breath.
What a joyous repose.
I self-diagnosed (is it self-diagnosed if I diagnose it myself, but it's someone else I'm diagnosing? No idea, I'm too tired to care) croup and, being a Saturday morning, before hours – of course. When else would it be? – I rang the Royal Children's Hospital to see if taking him into Emergency for a dose of whatever it is they give them was ok, or if they preferred I didn't. Because I'm that kind of person. And I'm tired and can't think what to do.
We went for the "take him in" but given we'd dealt with the issue before, and had a rough idea of what to look for, we didn't rush. I thought I'd have MUG and get dressed, and get him dressed and drive in. Grumpy Pants, on the other hand, felt driving us in and dropping us off would be a better idea.
Right after he had his coffee, and breakfast, and shower, and … just when I was ready to say "fuck it" and leave, he was ready. Twenty five minutes of asking the other two to get dressed/shoes on/get organised and of me mumbling for fuck's sake, I could have been back by now, we're out the door, and Chippie and I are dropped off at a relatively empty Emergency Department. And he wasn't concussed, bleeding, missing a tooth, not breathing or having broken something. We were doing well.
He sat on the triage desk refusing to make any noise that would rule in or out croup, or give any indication as to what it might be. She asked how long he had had it and I informed her as accurately as possible, and posisbly with aslight grimmace "3.41 this morning."
"I'll write 3.40am."
Gritting of teeth. "No, you will write 3.41am. That is what time he woke with this cough and the time he woke me."
"Ok, I'll write 3.41am. That'll give them a laugh."
Oh, goody. Am so pleased my life is just one great big comedy to everyone.
We were told to take a seat, which he apparently heard as "run around like an idiot". I hate it when kids are sick but not sick.
Have to locate him when we are called to see the Doctor, who does diagnose croup, writes me a prescription and releases us, where Chippie, in the bit where you're actually being treated does a runner and races through the desks and "authorised staff only" areas and causes me to be glared at by the lady who came in with her toddler in an ambulance.
Then get to wait an even longer time in the Emergency waiting room until Grumpy comes to collect me. Off to the chemist we go, leaving us in the car while he goes to fill the script, returning 3 days later, one sibling hitting other sibling in back of head, second sibling retaliating with demented wailing, first sibling "not hurting him" as he rests his feet on his head, seconds sibling reacting as though leg being sawn off with buter knife, me threatening all kinds of things, including amputations with butter knives, and toddler crying in discomfort, with a bottle of small pills for Chippie.
Um, I don't think so.
"No," I tell him. "It's a liquid. It's supposed to be a liquid. Go and change it."
"That's what he gave me!"
"I dont' care! I'm not even going to attempt to give him tablets. He. Is. A. Toddler."
(Forgot to mention, in that conversation: I. Am. Stressed. And. Tired. And. Not. Capable. Of. Implementing. Such. Strategies. And. Forcing. Tablets. Down. His. Resisting. Screaming. Throat.)
Everyone in the street got scared and followed Grumpy back to the chemist to ensure the right medication was provided.
Eventually he returns. To raid my purse for some additional funds to pay for liquid-not-tablets and devoiding me of any means to purchase a much needed by this stage latte.
Thus, it was something in the vicinity of three hours and fifty seven minutes after we left for the seven minute drive to emergency, the total 23 minutes in the Emergency department and the, I'm sure, significantly decreased length of time I would have spent at the prescriptions counter had I done it myself, that we returned home.
More tired and more grumpy than I thought possible.
Is it Wine O'Clock yet? And why, oh, why do the doctors in the Emergency department not prescribe something suitable for the parents when they're in there? I know it's a children's hospital, but being the main carer for not-sick sick children, surely there is a duty of care to offer … something?

Remove GST off Sanitary Products!!!
Remove GST off Sanitary Products!!!
0 have signed. Let's get to 25,000!
Pads, tampons and all other sanitary items are NOT a LUXURY they are a NECESSITY. The extra 15%tax added on to women's sanitary products are cleaning out women's wallets.
You can HELP. You can help us help them. We are going to help women in Auckland who cannot afford overpriced sanitary products. In different areas of Auckland, teenage girls are reduced to missing school, women use rags as alternatives, miss meals and more to get through their period. Their voice is not being recognised and the government is not doing enough to help them through their monthly struggles. Many women are going through a week of stress every month! Our project is needed to get women in Auckland who cannot afford sanitary products voice heard and for them to not dread the time when their period comes! They need support and our project will provide them with this. Women should not have to struggle to afford a basic need, why is a woman's basic necessity being priced as a luxury? Earn us back our period rights!
The people that will be most impacted by our project are the women who every month cannot afford to get a necessity, sanitary products. Our project will allow them to easily afford sanitary items and allow them to get through their period with ease. Their issue will be voiced louder and more awareness will be brought to their suffering. They will have the support of many women from around New Zealand that can support this cause.

The ingredients for a successful agency
As a business owner, I am constantly seeking gems of wisdom to help me navigate the complexities of running an agency. One of the best gems of wisdom I've heard has come from Sir Richard Branson, who said, "if you look after your staff, they will look after your customers." Ever since I on-boarded my first staff member in 2009, employee engagement has been a key driver of our success. Over the past eight years, I have recruited and worked alongside employees of all ages, backgrounds and personality types, and each with their own strengths and areas for improvement. Naturally, some staff have left over the years to pursue other ventures, but almost unheard of in this industry, is that my first time employee is still working with the company.Continue Reading
