"It's YOUR time to SHINE in 2009!"

NYC Loft: in the Common Area. YES, this is our "landline". I figure, if we're going to be old fashioned-like, we might as well go the FULL MONTY on the land~line technology.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW WILL YOU SHINE? A great start would be passing on this awesome NYC Loft apartment share --->

Some of you are already familiar with my inspirational "Phrase for the Year" (such as: "Wipe the Slate in 2008") practice. For those of you unfamiliar, every year for the past eight, I've chosen a positive motto to act as the year's theme. The theory being: It's meant to be placed on one's mobile phone so each time one opens and closes it, the motto is somehow absorbed into one's psyche. It can't hurt anyway!

After the previous 8 years, I felt the need for a really good phrase for coming 2009 & after nearly a year of mulling it over, I just couldn't seem to get "crime" rhyming with "9" out of my mind! As crime doesn't stand that tall in the positive reinforcement category, I definitely needed some help.

Then, suddenly, in the middle of the holiday season, the motto came from my childhood friend, PJ Mehaffey (in a Christmas card), "It's YOUR time to SHINE in '09!"

Feel free to change it as you see fit, others have suggested, "It's MY time to SHINE in '09!" & "It's OUR time to SHINE in '09!" Whatever works, I hope you'll consider using and start practicing for yourselves - whatever your theme.

All the best to you & yours in the coming New Year. We could ALL use some shine just about NOW! Don't forget to answer when you get the call.

Loft NYC: P.S. 16 -> 49% Hispanic...37% Black...8% White...6% Asian / Pacific Islander...

P.S. 16 John J Driscoll School- located in one of the city's two Empire Zones - the is located in Brooklyn, F.Y.I.).

STUDENT STATS ---------------------------------------------------------

49% Hispanic
37% Black
08% White
06% Asian/Pacific Islander

---------------------------------------------------------

**88% of Students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch program**

Q: Did Bloomberg, Trump, or Guilliani send their children to a NYC public school?

A: HELL NO!

Why? Because the "No Child Left Behind Act" has nailed the head on the coffin of the U.S.'s already crumbling public education system. NYC is the largest public school system in America (indeed, the world), comprising over one million students.

In fact, with Bloomberg's help, the NYC Public School system has managed to get worse. This issue is pandemic & it's eating our country alive. I personally don't know anyone with children who send their children to NYC public schools (firemen, police officers & working class citizens included).

And why not? Because those in power no longer place value in the PUBLIC SCHOOL education of our country. Look at whose attending the public schools in America. Don't get me wrong, America does value education, only, it's private education they value. Education of the wealthy elite, for the wealthy elite. Yes folks, the corporatization of America is nearly complete!

There's no excuse. NYC is market ONE, after all! Here, we have the TOP of the TOP industries, including: Finance, Publishing, Higher Education, Advertising, Architecture, Entertainment, News, Health Care. Yet, we have some of the worst public schools in the country.

The nation's cream of the crop flock to NYC, competing for world domination on a global scale! That's a hell of a lot of brain power & talent amassed in a central location. In a town where hedge fund honchos make $300 billion a year & a starting NYC public school teacher makes $43K, no wonder we're in trouble. Where's the education love?

There's a reason we don't have universal heath care. There's a reason our public schools are a wreck. There's a reason why average Americans start accumulating debt at 18 & spend the rest of their lives in a form of indentured servitude. There's a reason 99% of Americans' incorrectly call America a democracy when, in fact, it is a Constitutional Republic. There's a reason why our Constitutional Rights have been stripped from us over the past 7 years faster than a pro can take off her under-garments.

Wake up people.

For the betterment of tomorrow, please, people, GET INVOLVED! Get involved in something, ANYTHING. A great start would be to stop quibbling over B.S. We MUST start by ridding ourselves of the systems which have a choke-hold on us. I'd consider abolishing the Federal Reserve & printing our own money to be THE place to start, because Fiat's not just a car baby. And whilst you're not driving it, you better bet it's driving you!

Everything begins with education. I myself attended public school's in America's dead last-place state for education, yet received one of the finest educations of most people I've encountered. An Eton / Oxford educated associate of mine once looked upon me in shock after I'd helped advise him through his sixth consecutive successful business deal. He was an international banking / finance in the airline industry & couldn't figure out how the hell a S.C. "artist" could possibly be dishing the same advice as the President of Boeing.

The answer? Education! I never stop learning & there's absolutely no longer any excuse for ignorance. Period.

DO SOMETHING!

It's C.C.! My very special fine feathered friend, Mr. Cardinal Caper, or, if you prefer the fancier version, Mr. Cardinalis Cardinalis ...taken from bathroom window.

I've been photographing him for five years & he's always in the company of his "wife". I'm a little worried she was nowhere to be found this time around...
