My mother had ms for 25 years but ending up dying from lung cancer on April 13th 2008. Every year I do the MS walk. http://main.nationalmssociety.org/goto/myteam

My team grows every year. I want more people to learn about MS.

My page tells you about MS and shows you how you can join my team and walk with me this year or even to donate.

help make a world free of MS

Greetings to each and everyone of you. Looking forward to interacting with as many of you as possible in our common endeavor to effect change. UVCC's mission is a fairly simple one, we believe that in order to demand respect, there must first exist some form of self-respect, on that note and in the spirit of respect for dignity, pride, self-respect we begin our campaign of asking African Americans who are proponents of misogyny and the use of the n-word to refrain from the self-destructive use of the diabolical n-word.

There should really be no black, white, brown, yellow Americans, but just simply Americans and if we all do our part that can someday indeed be the case. Change starts with self, not with President Barack Obama, nor your girlfriend, boyfriend, wife or husband...but yourself, and if you have no respect for yourself, no one else does either.

Thank you MTV for serving as a catalyst for change and with a little bit of effort the rest of us can chime in and truly make some good things happen.

Light and peace,
H. Lewis Smith

Hello Everyone in the think.mvt.com community, and to the general public.

First of all.

THANK YOU MTV for this opportunity to speak out about my frustration and my concerns.

I have done it all by contacting the Authorities, Organizations and Foundations to speak out with my voice and about my concerns about some issues that are bothering me.
Let me emphasize about the issue of "Music Education for the teens and children, "Especially GUITAR LESSONS - which to me is Music Education" which I found out there is NO - NO - NO such program avialble for them, in the past, present and in the future if I am NOT WRONG.

Let me make the story short.
You can find out the replies from the Office Of the California Governor and The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation replying back to us by clicking the link below and select the "Documents" link to view the replied from these 2 Organizations.
http://think.mtv.com/Groups/guitarelements/

---
Yes I gave up. Because I have a new plan and this is it folks.
If this is not going to work. I will bring down guitarelements.com and just let go of it. Yes I will lose my dream, big deal and who cares or gives a damn about me.
---
Mr Gates,
I want to DONATE guitarelements.com TO YOU.
I will help to support and in the running the site, as no one else can understand what I am doing.
I will somehow train and teach whoever is involved in this project which I am going to give, just in case I am not avilable to fix or administer this software.

Yes, I am Dumb for doing this and I do not have a choice, and I do not want to throw something like this away.

---
Mr Gates, if you do not want it, for whatever reason, and it is not my job to find out why you're rejecting it if that is the case.

If this is the case, I want to know if there are any other Organizations or foundations that would like to pick up this offer.

Please contact us if you are interested in this sorry project that is making me feel so stupid.

THE REASON I GIVE IT TO YOU IS, BECASUE I DO NOT HAVE RESOURCE TO CARRY ON.
I have been giving all I have, and this is it.

THIS IS AN ON GOING PROJECT.

Thank you for reading this post.

Hey, no fair…I am already a registered voter, why can’t I have the badge? I want the badge…can I have the badge …please…don’t I get a brownie point at least for already being registered???? I want the badge….. pretty, PLEASE with an onion on top!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello Everyone;

Between 1991 and 1992 I helped build a brand new computer lab for Grandview Elementary School in Lake Arrowhead CA.
It had 60 workstations running Novell Netware 4.2.
I donated my time by charging a very minimal charge, and both of my sons were attending Grandview. The oldest son, was in second grade, and the youngest son was in kindergarten. I will search for the letter of recommendation for you to view. My wife is also a guitar teacher, with 10 years experience, all ages, groups and one on one lessons.
Mr. Jeff Hubbard, the Principal later to become Superintendant for San Bernadino County, wrote a letter of recommendation for my work.

I wish the education dept. in Washington would not ignore my emails contacting them and introduce this great program as an after school activity, that will not impact their daily studies.

Again, it is an afterschool activity and the benefits of it will help them in so many ways.
For example it will enhance their intelligence because music is a science, math, art. It teaches patience, discipline, and not to give up easily.
This will help them in their accademics, and they can apply this to their life.
Of course, I am saying this to those kids who are interested in learning guitar lessons.
I am not talking about those kids who are not interested.
Again this is an afterschool activity, and is not manditory.
It is an elective.

The school does not have to do anything. Their computer lab and internet access is ready, all they have to do is log into guiterelements.com to access lessons. That is all, it costs nothing,
The schools and I can together ask musical instrument manufacturers to help, either to donate or give discounts on guitars.
It doesn't have to be expensive guitars, just good enough to get started, or guitarelements will even donate a few guitars.

We hope someone from the education dept. reads this post.

We thank MTV for featuring us on think.mtv.com homepage.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste. So is an opportunity such as guitarelements is a terrible thing to lose.
Never judge a book by it's cover.

By the way, I also dream of making Bass, Piano, and or even Drum Modules.
Music theory logic is the same as far as programming, and I have one of the best software currently on the market that is truly teaching what it is supposed to teach. I have friends that will help me that are teachers for those instruments listed above.

Thank you for reading my post.

Hello Everyone in the think.mtv community.

This is Huan, I have last request and if this is not working - I am going to back out.

People always been advised by friends or others never to give up.
---
Wow, Yes and No. Sound confuse is it? Yes I am confusing for so long, this is what I think about giving up.
---
I need to know when it is time to give up.

If guitarelements do not have the support and people are rejecting it.

I have to give up, even thought I will never want to.

I need to CHANGE, as this project has been dragging me, and draining me, I do not think it is going to work.
I building this for a change, for a dream and for THE PEOPLE.

But for what ever reasons the people don't want to support it or don't even want to know what is does.

Why should I keep on going?
---

This is what I am going to do before I give up. I did not tell my wife what I am going to do. I just do it. I feel so stupid to do this.
---
For each person join us. I will donate $1.00 to these 2 organizations:
actionagainsthunger.org & The USO.org (for exaple if 100 signup - each organization recieved $50.00.

I have been donating on a monthly basis to these 2 Org.
Please don't hurt us. If you join, then we need you to promote us.
NOT JUST JOIN AND BE INACTIVE - THIS IS NOT FAIR.

This offer will ended when we have no more money.
As of this moment, we have 27 members in our group.
Starting from member number 28 and counting.
---
TO MTV.
Can I request to add the above Organizations in to your site so people can support these 2 Organization?
here is the links >>> actionaganisthunger.org & USO.org
That is all of my intention, not the money.
I never have money, becasue when I have money "extra mney" I gave to someone else that needed. May be I have to change this also.

I do not have to do anything to help others, my restaurant will be enough to make a comfortable income.
---
I can not understand what I got Awards for?

I contacted Bill Gates foundation, CA Governor office, CNN, NBC.... You name it I did it. I contact them all.

Bill Gate foud. replied 2 times, the reason for rejecting because I am "No catergorie? becasue I charge the Adults fee to join guitarelements. But I Donate to ALL TEENS. How DO I support this project with out money, which I wish, pray and dream the Adults will support that is how I keep up this project.
If it is free for ALL. Where do I get the fund to operator it?
---
CA governor office replied they already arrange 206 millions dollars for the fiscal 2008-2009 for education. they replied twice.

DAMN IT. - I AM NOT ASKING FOR MONEY - NOTHING

I DO NATE THIS FOR GOD SAKE.

They do not have this program ever "GUITAR LESSONS" and they will never have something like this "the past, now and the future. I assure you all that".

Becasue I believe they will not do what I do and give what I give.
