GIVE OUT DAY 

In Time of Critical Need for LGBTQ Americans, “Give OUT Day” 2017 is today

San Francisco, CA, April 19, 2017

(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)

LGBTQ Americans are in a state of urgent need: an administration actively hostile to the community now occupies the White House; homophobic and transphobic hate crimes have spiked following the election; over 130 laws attacking LGBTQ rights are pending in state legislatures around the country; and the one-year anniversary of the horrific Pulse shooting in Orlando is fast approaching. In this difficult climate, Give OUT Day, a national day of giving for the LGBTQ community, will once again coordinate a 24-hour online fundraising event to support over 300 LGBTQ organizations across all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia.

Give OUT Day 2017 will take place on April 20, 2017 from 12:00 am to 11:59 pm Eastern. Last year, Give Out Day raised over $550,000.

Throughout the day-long event, thousands of people make gifts to support a diverse array of LGBTQ nonprofits, ranging from the arts to social services agencies, advocacy groups to sports leagues, and community centers to health care nonprofits.

Give OUT Day is a project of Horizons Foundation.

Founded as a community foundation of, by, and for LGBTQ people, Horizons has been supporting LGBTQ nonprofit organizations, leaders, and donors for more than 35 years.

MOANA …. Alessia Cara …. “How Far I’ll Go (Official Video) …. “!!

~~December 19, 2016~~ 

ALESSIA CARA

I was waiting for MOANA to come out.

From the previews I’d seen, I knew it was a ‘must see’ movie.

So far, I’ve seen it twice with the grand-kids.

For lighthearted fun, for an amazing animated quality production and for amazing music, this is a ‘must see’ movie.

Enjoy!

~How Far I’ll Go~

Alessia Caracciolo (born July 11, 1996), professionally known as Alessia Cara, is a Canadian singer and songwriter. She is signed to EP Entertainment and Def Jam Recordings and is best known for “Here“, her debut single from the debut studio album, Know-It-All, released November 13, 2015.

~~Wikipedia~~ 

Disney released the music video for “How Far I’ll Go” from animated film “Moana” on Thursday, November 3, sung by Canadian singer Alessia Cara.

The video features the sweet-faced singer and songwriter singing on a beach, between shots of her walking alongside the water to closeups of her face as the wind blows through her hair.

All the while, she sings, “See the line where the sky meets the sea?/It calls me/And no one knows how far it goes/If the wind on my sail on the sea stays behind me/One day I’ll know, if I go there’s just no telling how far I’ll go …”

“How Far I’ll Go” was written by “Hamilton” creator and Tony Award-winner Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote all the film’s songs alongside Mark Mancina.

CELL PHONE ADDICTION

~Signs and Symptoms of Cell Phone Addiction~

Although cell phone addiction is not yet listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5), research has compared it to gambling addiction, which has clearer diagnostic criteria and is included in the DSM-5.

At least 4 of the following signs and symptoms are thought to comprise criteria for cell phone addiction, and the problematic cell phone overuse must cause significant harm in the individual’s life:

A need to use the cell phone more and more often in order to achieve the same desired effect.
Persistent failed attempts to use cell phone less often.
Preoccupation with smartphone use.
Turns to cell phone when experiencing unwanted feelings such as anxiety or depression.
Excessive use characterized by loss of sense of time.
Has put a relationship or job at risk due to excessive cell phone use.
Tolerance.

Need for newest cell phone, more applications, or increased use.
Withdrawal, when cell phone or network is unreachable.

Anger
Tension
Depression
Irritability
Restlessness

Reclaim the Internet …. “Agnes Török & The Dangerous Women Project …. “!!

ANYTHING IS DANGEROUS … WHILE A WOMAN

ONLINE EPIDEMIC OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

… to generations of terrified men hiding behind screens!

I found this video this morning as I ‘surfed’ through my Facebook feed.

This weekend I watched the ‘Michael Moore in Trumpland‘ movie.

It’s interesting to me how the message that Agnes Török ties in with Moore’s movie and the fact that there’s the first woman nominee for President of the United States.

Please, listen to her.

Her message is amazing!

Agnes Török is a multilingual award-winning spoken word poet, author and workshop leader. Török has been featured as a TED speaker, regularly collaborated with the BBC and featured at multiple international festivals for arts and sciences.

She has performed on four continents, writing and performing poetry about intersectional feminism, economic equality and the politics of mental health.

~The Project~
The Dangerous Women Project is an initiative of the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at the University of Edinburgh.

The Project asks: what does it mean to be a ‘dangerous woman’?

The idea that women are dangerous individually or collectively permeates many historical periods, cultures and areas of contemporary life (despite, and in some instances in response to, explicitly feminist movements).

We may take lightly the label attached by mainstream media outlets to women such as Shami Chakrabarti of Liberty, or Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon as being ‘the most dangerous woman in the UK’.

But behind this label lies a serious set of questions about the dynamics, conflicts, identities and power relations with which women live today.

The Dangerous Women Project will curate 365 responses to those questions from all over the world between International Women’s Day 2016 and International Women’s Day 2017.
