Internet History of Labor Day ? May Day
Labor Day History (by the department of Labor) - - No mention of May Day
May Day and Labor Day (ruckus at Washington.edu ) -
I remember when I lived in Germany, I attended a May day celebration and asked about its origins. The people their laughed at my ignorance telling me it started as an American Holiday. The reaosn I didn't know at the time is precisely because I was taught form texts like the first link while attending public school.

Virtual Communities by Howard Rheingold
He is a great writer and although the book is somewhat dated, most of the issues are very thought provoking. What is even more exciting is that I converted all of the chapters to audio MP3s with the AT&T voices I bought a couple months back. It's fun listening to the computer read it to you and you could always load it into your MP3 player.

TK just hijacked this journal but I got it back now. I am still very sick. One of my students came to me to ask what she should do about grad school. She is currently enrolled in some telecommunications graduate degree at Canisius but really wants to pursue her dream of being a 3D animator.
She said she doesn't want to learn philosophy and such and wanted to really concentrrate on the animation. I was so torn because I myself had the same fork in my road. I ended up going to graduate school for my MFA for media studies at UB as most of you know. The questions is, did I make the right choice, or should I have persued something job oriented? Will I become a much more enriched, informed artist whose work reflects the critical analysis of the theories presented to me. I guess that has already happend. I dropped by interest in aesthetics and glitz and started working more towards social purposes. But where has this brought me.
I made me hate 3D stuff, which is not what I ever intended. It mad eme realise how mind numbing and meaningless it is. It just seams so fake and worthless. The pinacle of this is when I spent $20 on my American flag 3D airboat [inlink]paul,145[/inlink].
So what am I trying to say here. Now I am a conflicted, guilt ridden, overzelous, social-techno freak and I like it. Maybe I would have been happier being a 3D animator. Maybe it would have felt empty. Anyways, all this crap was running through my head when she asked me. I told her to just pursue her dream, why couldn't I ever follow my own rules. Who am I to know. I hate being sick.
I guess I am happy with my choice. Accept l probably (99.99998% likeliness) chose the wrong school and the wrong language and continent but the right thing in terms of not having gone into 3D animation. I really ended up prefering web programming and digital communication, right?

Ephedrine is a Methamphetamine?
ARRESTS SHOCK WESTERN NEW YORK RACING COMMUNITY
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) -- Western New York's harness racing community is still reeling from the news that a group of racers are accused of being involved in a drug-smuggling operation.
A federal grand jury has indicted five Buffalo-area residents with being part of one of the biggest methamphetamine operations in North America. Federal agents say the operation involved dozens of people from Manitoba and Ontario, Canada to California and Mexico.
In July, harness racer Louis Russo of Batavia was arrested after Customs inspectors at the U-S-Canada border at Niagara Falls found more than 400 pounds of ephedrine packed into bags hidden in his horse trailer.
Also arrested were four other people with connections to harness racing, including Hugh Stevens, a racehorse owner from Derby, and his wife Sandra, owner of a nightclub in Lackawanna.
All five deny the allegations.
