[Cory Brennan <cory8570@yahoo.com>]

Just wanted to let folks know that we'll be holding another urban 
Permaculture Design Course in Tampa before I go to Pine Ridge in April, and a 
Pine Ridge course, headed by Warren Brush, in late June.  Please forward to 
anyone you know who might be interested!
The Urban course will run six weekends from Feb 5 thru April 3, with some 
weekends off. We focus heavily on urban design solutions with an emphasis on 
small scale food forestry and gardening, including running a CSA out of your 
yard; economics; community organizing and creating community in a city 
environment; and retrofitting existing structure for sustainability. These 
urban courses help us fund our work at Pine Ridge and in Haiti, so please let 
people know about the course!  We deliver a high quality course and provide 
many extras to students such as career counseling, course pack, a great 
resource database, etc. 
The Pine Ridge course will be held at our demonstration site at Pine Ridge 
reservation from June 13-26.  This will run in conjunction with our intern 
and apprenticeship program - students can come early or stay after the course 
for an immersive experience in a pretty intense design process to transform 
this site and reach out to the rest of the rez.  This course offers a unique 
cultural experience on Pine Ridge Lakota reservation along with the design 
course. Food and camping are included in the price.
Some sliding scale and work study is available for the Tampa course - Pine 
Ridge course discounts and scholarships are reserved for Lakota at Pine 
Ridge. 
More info is at the web site permacultureguild.us or write to me.

www.pyeglobal.org/blog/http://www.pyeglobal.org/Here We Go!WRITTEN BY: 
CHARLIE - DEC• 16•10We are seeing the tiniest tip of the ice burg in 
terms of what we can learn from each other. One of our goals as an 
organization is to shine a light on a more creative, depth-oriented way of 
coming together, particularly as it relates to activating the full potential 
of young people. We consider this work a form of social artistry and we seek 
to elevate the role of the social artist around the world. I have been 
intrigued by the idea of the social artist for a long time because I think it 
accurately describes who we are.In the early 1900’s social philosopher and 
educator Rudolf Steiner predicted that a new, higher form of art would emerge 
at the end of the 20th century—an art form in which people use their 
creativity to learn how to live well in community. He called this “social 
art”. Educator Jean Houston predicted the emergence of
 the “social artist,” whose medium is the human community. According to 
Houston, such a person “brings the focus, perspective, skill training, 
tireless dedication, and fresh vision of the artist to the social 
arena.”Here is what I know from my work around the world: Rudolph Steiner 
and Jean Houston’s prediction are very much alive in the world and growing 
rapidly. We practice social artistry in many diverse parts of the world:Â  
London, Bangalore, Cape Town, rural Eastern Cape South Africa, Kampala and 
rural Uganda, Seattle and British Columbia. Everywhere we go, in every 
community we find people who fit the description of a social artist, and we 
discover each other. What’s more, the same vibe exists among the people who 
are drawn to and fed by this way of working wherever we go in the world. 
Though the life situations differ widely, I am in the fortunate position of 
experiencing the same generosity of spirit, the same shared
 delight that social artists take in the blossoming of each person in every 
place we are engaged. An after-camp staff celebration has the same sweetness, 
wild joy, and fullness of heart in Kampala, as it does in London as it does 
in Bangalore. And every time I am blessed to be in the midst of this kind of 
energy, I say to myself, “I want these people to know the others, in 
different parts of the world, who also gain meaning through creating safe 
spaces where everyone’s creativity can be expressed.”While our world 
often seems to be falling apart, I am continually energized by the lived 
experience that we, as humans, have the capacity—both the science and the 
art—to form creative communities and address the challenges we face. We are 
discovering how much fun it is to put these capacities into practice; joy is 
an organizing principle we can rely on. With each passing year, I am 
encountering ever increasing receptivity to the idea that a more
 creative, arts-based, holistic approach is needed in education, that 
education ought be connected to the change that is needed in the world, and 
that emotional and social intelligence is a fundamental capacity that must be 
developed as a foundation for individual and collective advancement. That I 
can walk into a school in the heart of a Muslim community in Bangalore and 
meet, in the person of the school’s principal, a joyful, inspiring social 
artist and an immediate and energetic ally in this work is only one 
indication that something powerful is afoot.The game of life is more fun when 
everyone blossoms, and we can enhance that blossoming the more we share 
stories from this work and the wisdom we develop along the way. Each of you 
is an essential voice in this growing network, a movement of human 
possibility. I can’t wait to hear what you have to say.

production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of
us do this, there is enough for everyone.

the very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food
and shelter." -Â Bill Mollison

Thanks Todd. What's a good alternative to Delicious? It is valuable to
consolidate nd back up all your bookmarks accessable to all your
computers. I have found XMarks, Foxmarks to be too slow. Google's
methods of backing up to your Google Desktop and through Chrome seems
OK. What is a good way to back up bookmarks so that all computers have
the same copy. I have tried exporting my Firefox bookmarks as .html then
importing that file into Firefox on my other computers - I think this
process does not work completely as I see big gaps after imports.
