A particular happiness


My friend’s son came by the studio tonight to help record Phandeluys and her partner’s illustrative diagnoses and corrective steps in response to the students’ questions about a particular pattern or choreographic element, most of which involve the International styles of Foxtrot, Quickstep, Waltz, Viennese Waltz, and Tango. International Latin styles will be covered in tomorrow’s classes, with a forewarning from Phandeluys for us to keep our expectations reasonable, to see their demonstration as an ideal to which to aspire, and not “a fantasy that pushes you to become a stranger to your partner and vice versa.”

I can see how what she hinted at might become reality for some of the couples in the classes but I doubt that would have been possible between her and her partner, or her and the students she had taken under her care. Perhaps she is not aware of it but she has this immediate sensual connection with people and events that allows her to pinpoint and somehow fulfill their needs and desires in a very unconscious manner. This quality shows itself most when she is attentively engaging in troubleshooting a dance step and helping to correct and guide a student towards mastery of her or his objective. Along with the coolly detached reformer in her, there is that caring humanist who refuses to allow another person to fail if she can prevent it. Makes me wonder if that is not the part of her nature that her partner wants to possess and restraint … there is always that look of hunger in him whenever he gazed at her while she converses with a student.

The video clips will be uploaded to their Empower by Dance! blog so that students can review them at their leisure. These clips captured the demonstrative steps, patterns, or choreographic elements from the shoulders down; neither Phandeluys nor her partner wanted their faces shown on the videos. They are vividly protective of his privacy. For their purposes of correcting, teaching, reviewing, and “not wasting time tilling the same soil yet again,” these videos more than serve their objectives. I have selfish reasons for wanting a full profile capture of their demo tape …

Stay tune, and until next post, 

We dream | We believe | And we will succeed 

About this blog 

Excepting this introduction and what are—and will be—posted after March 2015, this blog mirrored a now out-of-commission blog, http://ya-chang-lin.blogspot.com, which was taken down on October 21, 2013 by its author Phandeluys Truong. 

The author's original contents and supporting documents were captured by multiple means from the above-mentioned blog while it was alive and active. There may have been a glitch here and there that prevented me from downloading the complete blog as it had existed. Thus, readers familiar with the original blog may find a few missing posts and/or comments. Those postings that I was able to grab and preserve in their entirety are reposted here under my name, however, all rights remain that of the original author. 

This series of posts documents the fraudulent, sometimes criminal, and frequent unethical/immoral activities of Ya-Chang Robert Lin, a Taiwanese native of mainland Chinese parentage, who defrauded a naturalized US citizen, Phandeluys Truong, into a marriage that had been his shield against USCIS for his intentional violations of immigration law: 

as a nonimmigrant F-1 student, Ya-Chang Robert Lin had willfully operated an international students recruiting business without prior work authorization from the then United States Immigration and Naturalization Service; 

as President of said business, Ya-Chang Robert Lin had knowingly helped both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students to evade military drafts in their countries by facilitating their applications to study in the US and abroad; 

as President of said business, Ya-Chang Robert Lin had knowingly helped both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students looking to enter the United States with the intention of gaining permanent US resident status under the pretense of studying; 

as President of said business, Ya-Chang Robert Lin had purposely evaded paying taxes on the commissions received from it and failed to report the earned income to the IRS by having the payments wired back to Taiwan to his mother Chang Hsueh; 

Ya-Chang Robert Lin had applied for reinstatement of his F-1 or student status and a change of status, while knowingly withheld the preceding facts on his own applications for permanent resident and citizenship in the United States. 

And those are just the tip of the iceberg. Ya-Chang Robert Lin had been employed at AAFES or The Exchange headquarter in Dallas, Texas as an information technology auditor, where he managed to steal—by downloading to CDs that he kept in his personal possession while abiding for time and opportunities to "do business" in Taiwan and/or China—thousands of his colleagues’ Social Security numbers and personnel files while working on one of its HR projects. The HR data on one of these projects became the basis for an academic paper, speaking proposal for ISACA that this conman was planning to present in collusion with this boss [who probably had no idea he was being taken advantage of and has taken leave of AAFES or The Exchange to take care of his ailing mother], and a consulting business he was "collaborating with " [more like conning other people into developing and fronting for him]. 

Ya-Chang Robert Lin is a reprobate with a seared conscience. Lacking normal capacity for empathy, remorse, and reciprocation of good will, he is addicted to lying, cheating, and stealing for the pure pleasures derived from being able to get away with it. Because he is such a good liar—so charming and well versed in manipulation techniques and acting skills—it is hard to distinguish him from reprobates. 

Ya-Chang Robert Lin was able to dupe some of the smart people in federal government [AAFES or The Exchange, USCIS, ICE, and DHS], higher education [Fort Hays State University and Navarro College], and information technology auditing and security [ACFE and ISACA]. Among his legacy: A son who refused any connection with him and wished that he were dead.
