  • California Cultural Districts Program - One Year On
    The content in this preview is based on the last saved version of your email - any changes made to your email that have not been saved will not be shown in this preview. Greetings! At the height of summer, with a dizzy month of events behind us, and many more to come, we are devoting much of our August newsletter to a thoughtful look at the California Cultural Districts Program - one year on. Both Grass Valley-Nevada City Cultural District and Truckee Cultural District are now entering their second year of a five year state designation under the California Cultural District Program. Watch an Introduction to California Cultural Districts What does this mean and do we all understand yet what cultural districts are, or should look like? Because the program is still in its "pilot" phase, California Arts Council expects us to arrive at our own visions for our communities, and even within Nevada County this can mean different things. Read on for more... In this month's newsletter - as a regular component - we remind our arts community of a few of the resources available to them as members, while highlighting the ubiquitous talents of one particular artist, Maggie McKaig, in our special Artists of Nevada County feature. We also highlight eight upcoming events, from Summer Music in the Park Concert Series' Déjà Vu at Truckee River Regional Park, to Foothills Ceramic Art Museum's 20th Century Masters at ASIF, to featured artist, Ron Jermyn, at Ellu Gallery's Third Thursday Art Reception. All of them - and more - are worth more than a look-in.

  • 1 in 1992, I Found out That I Was Going to Be Missing Two of My Front Teeth. I
    In 1992, I found out that I was going to be missing two of my front teeth. I was eight, lying on the dentist’s chair, staring at my velcro shoes when I heard Mrs. Nguyễn, the office administrator, cry: “We must help her!” My x-rays had just been processed, and they showed that my permanent lateral incisors did not exist. Just a week earlier, on the playground, I had been picking at my baby incisors, noodling my tongue around them and peel- ing them slowly away from my gums. They were the last of my baby teeth; I was getting excited for my permanent smile. But my excitement turned to confusion and anxiety upon learning that my smile would be abnormal. Dr. Don rolled his chair over, x-rays in hand. “The teeth you just lost will not be replaced by new ones. Now, say: “O-O-O-O-O- O-O.” He kept talking while he examined my mouth with his circular dental mirror. “We will have to figure out what to do with you. Some people let their teeth naturally fill in the empty spaces, so your canines would sit next to your front teeth. Others push the canines back to make room for false lateral incisors. We don’t need these teeth anymore, and someday, no one will have them. You might be ahead of human evolution.” 1 Four hundred million years ago, rain fell on Gondwana and eroded the limestone in the Earth. The Earth shifted. Wind pattered, slapped, and whipped, boring into the hollows of the rock, pushing the water ahead of it and sculpting the rock into an ecosystem of caves.

    Page 1 of 57 Dear Teachers, Dancers, Family and Friends, Welcome to the 2019 Season at Tribute National Talent. As we celebrate our 8th season, we feel very blessed to host an event that gives us the opportunity to do what we love while spending time with so many wonderful people. We hope you feel very welcome and a part of our family as you enjoy seeing all the outstanding dancers who will grace the stage this weekend. As we grow older, we begin to see things in a different light and our thoughts and feelings seem to be more important and significant. Over the last several years I have written welcome letters that talk about what Tribute is all about. Now going into our 8th season, I just wanted to simply say THANK YOU. As parents, we cherish every moment we can spend with our kids as they grow. Dance teachers also feel this way since they are like family as they see the dancers grow up in the studio and then graduate. In 2010 after my father passed, I knew I had to make some changes in my life so I could be a better husband and father. My son was 7 years old and my daughter was 2 years old at the time. I remember that before I started Tribute, I missed so much time with my own family when I was gone on the road so often and then all summer doing nationals. As I share this picture with you of me and my children from 2014, I am reminded of how truly blessed I am.

    LẦN ĐẦU MỘT CƠ QUAN TRUYỀN THÔNG HẢI NGOẠI BỊ LỘ DIỆN Từ mối liên hệ giữa TH Vĩnh Long và TH VietFace, nhìn lại hệ quả chuyện TN Paris thâm nhập Nhà Thờ Công Giáo Trần Phong Vũ Lần đầu một cơ quan truyền thông hải ngoại bị lộ diện Đầu năm dương lịch 2018, báo chí trong nước, dẫn đầu là tờ Nhân Dân Nhật Báo, đã mở cuộc đấu tố nhắm vào thành phần lãnh đạo Đài Truyền Hình Vĩnh Long, liên quan tới việc trao đổi làm ăn không minh bạch với Đài TH VietFace của công ty “Thúy Nga Paris Về Đêm” ở Hoa Kỳ. Nhà báo Phạm Trần đã có một bài viết nặng ký hôm 08 tháng 02. Ông thẳng thắn nêu lên câu hỏi là nếu quả thật qua dấu chân của NQ 36, CĐ người Việt tị nạn đã bị truyền thông CS nhuộm đỏ, báo chí và những người làm truyền thông tự do sẽ trả lời ra sao? Chẵn 20 ngày sau (28-02), Liên Ủy Ban Chống CS và Tay Sai (LUB//CCS&TS) ở nam California đã ra một bản Tuyên Cáo về cùng một vấn đề. Trung tuần tháng 3-2018 cuộc phỏng vấn với LS Đỗ Phủ và tiếp theo với ông Jonathan Tôn, CFO, Giám đốc Tài chánh của VietFace và LS Nguyễn Quốc Lân (người nhận bào chữa cho ông Tôn trong vụ kiện ngược lại đài VietFace) do ký giả Đoàn Trọng thực hiện trong CT “Mỗi Tuần Một Vấn Đề” trên đài Little Sàigòn Television ở Quận Cam đã đẩy câu chuyện về mối liên hệ giữa hai đài truyền hình Vĩnh Long và VietFace đi xa hơn một bước.

  • Diasporic Returns and the Making of Vietnamese American Ghost Films in Vietnam Lan Duong University of California, Riverside
    Dpr Rtrn nd th n f Vtn rn ht Fl n Vtn Ln Dn L: ltthn Ltrtr f th .., Vl 4, Nbr , Fll 206, pp. 0 (rtl Pblhd b xfrd nvrt Pr Fr ddtnl nfrtn bt th rtl http:.jh.drtl666 Access provided by University of California @ Riverside (12 Nov 2016 22:09 GMT) Diasporic Returns and the Making of Vietnamese American Ghost Films in Vietnam Lan Duong University of California, Riverside Since the end of the Vietnam War, it has been a cliche´ for writers, politicians, and journalists in the United States to speak about the “ghosts of war” as an enduring metaphor for the effects that the war has on the minds and bodies of Americans. “Vietnam” still casts a pall over today’s political discourses about war, refugees, and US foreign policy. For scholars in Vietnam studies, the “ghosts of war” appear in research about the social relations between the living and the dead in the post-war era; anthropologists, for example, have analyzed the ways that ghosts exert a symbolic and material influence on those grappling with the terrific changes the country has undergone through the ghosting of narratives.1 Unlike this body of work, which considers the impact of ghosts on lived realities, I am interested in the ways that ghosts have come to life in the form of film, most specifically in the movies directed by Vietnamese Americans who work in Vietnam. Such highly commercial films and their modes of production provide a compelling trace of diasporic history, one borne out of war and displacement, within narratives of the nation.
