Since the dawn of consciousness all sentient beings have been given the gift of choice. What we choose to do with our time makes us who we are, and how we influence the world around us. Those who are empowered with motivation, information, and resources are able to overcome apathy, and achieve life goals. This leads to a better life for themselves, and the people who are effected by there choices. Empower Thy Self .com is a website dedicated to providing people with the tools, skills, and resources needed to become empowered.

I am an active member of Empowerthyself.com and find it to be useful for organizing my ideas, learning from others, and pursue my goals. It is a growing site that is currently developing a facebook application, and an iPhone application. I will continue to contribute to empowerthyself.com and encourage others to seek there own empowerment. It is important for us to work together, and create positive change in the world. The future of humanity rests in the hands of those who are empowered.

Elections are coming up. We need to learn about what’s going on in the world.

“…a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.”
-James Madison

My friend Estee is a filmmaker from New Orleans currently living in Monterey Bay. She is working on a documentary called “Heaven come down” about the effects of hurricane Katrina on the golf coast.

While I was visiting her this past weekend, I helped her shoot this youtube video, asking the presidential candidates a question. CNN will chose some questions to be presented to the democratic candidates on Monday evening.

Estée’s question to Presidential candidates.

I inherited a 2 turn tables, and 6 crates of vinyl records from the skilled DJ Mano in 2006. Since then I have been mixing old dance, and hip hop records from the 90s. Sometimes I’ll get home from work on Friday evening, and blast the music I’m mixing on the 250 Watt speakers and amp it came with. I Open the windows, and give the neighbors a live 40 minute performance. I also record them on MP3s, and keep the good ones posted on the DJ Polar website. Feel free to download the mp3s, and sample my mixology:

Sparks of consciousness fire in my brain, shooting an electrical signal to my hands which plug away at an inanimate keyboard. The letters fly from my fingers, forming words, sentances, paragraphs, thoughts, concepts, ideas. The potential of speach is infinate. I reach for the stars, and pull at the heavenly curtains which have opened the stage of life before me.

As your eyes pass over these strings of letters, the words form in your mind, creating a mirror of what I once wrote. The circle becomes complete, as the purpose of a blog, is for others to read what has been said.

At the dawn of 2007, This long awaitted blog has begun.
