Electoral College Reform

Copy (2) of img-420182504-0002



Fifty states of equal population and therefore equal electoral weight.

I wonders is the people elect the president or it's actually electoral college.

"The election for President and Vice President is not a direct election by United States citizens. Citizens vote for electors, representing a state, who are the authorized constitutional participants in a presidential election."

Historic Malacca Postcards Exhibition

img-407081445-0001


Old photographs tell many private and secret stories. Old photographs in the form of picture postcards, in particular, are public exposition of things, people, sights seen by travellers along the way, that momentarily captured their private attention.


This is an exhibition of more than hundred postcard views of Malacca between 1900-1950 seen through the eyes of colonial travellers.


What was seen and experienced ?

What was represented ?

What was valued ?

How pertinent are these qualities today ?

What have we gained and lost through time ?

img-329084013-0001 - Copy


Don’t Mess with Texas means don’t litter. And that’s no joke. Since 1986, we’ve kept tons of trash off of Texas roads and highways. But with over 24 million people living in our great state and more moving in every day, there’s always more work to be done. Check out the many ways you can get involved. See where you can lend a hand, order a free litterbag, report a litterer, or just sit back and watch your favorite Don’t Mess with Texas commercials.
