This shot was taken through a window of a workshop on Granville Island, Vancouver. Hopefully it turned out alright. The workshop had other items on show which were all great

Can we build #DS106? Yes, we can! Uh, yeah, I think so! #DS106 is the ultimate DIY course for digital storytelling, so I figured I'd save this photo of me at the Chicago Children's Museum at Navy Pier for just the right moment. Now would be appropriate. I love the way the Hipstamatic filters made my eyes stand out in an intensely energetic, yet slightly creepy, way.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN CANNING INDUSTRY
In 1866 the Swedish engineer Axel Nilsson of the company "Tøreboda" manufactured the first seaming machine for round cans. The Norwegian canning company "Hagbart Thorsen" was the first to import it. Later, in 1873, Captain Johan G. B. Mëjlaender set up the first canning factory in Stavanger, the Stavanger Preserving Co. In 1879 he created a new product: smoked Norwegian sardines packed in rectangular 1/4 club cans (soldered cans).
It is said that Mëjlaender was the main architect of the future success of the product and the man who knew better than anyone how to market it internationally. It marked the beginning of large-scale marketing of canned Norwegian sardines on a worldwide basis.
The shape of the can, its design and its contents were in some way a copy of the French "sardines in oil". The difference lay in the type of fish and the manufacturing process. The French sardines were fried in oil and the Norwegian ones were smoked. The French claimed that the term “sardine” should only be used for sardines derived from the Mediterranean sardine, Clupea Pilchardus. Finally a decision was taken: in Europe the Norwegian sardine would be marketed as "brisling sardines" or "sild sardines" and in the rest of the world as "sardines".

Masonic Cemetery No. 1
New Orleans, Louisiana
The fence around a cemetery is foolish,
for those inside can't get out
and those outside don't want to get in.

This display was at the Virgin Megastore in Strasbourg, France. It's an interesting mix of fact and fiction, related and pretty unrelated to Barack Obama's inauguration. The West Wing? Sure. 24? I guess so. Foxy Brown? Well....

Today I was the victim of several high-speed zoomie collisions. Surprisingly, it was the big girls who were the offenders. In this sequence, you can see 2 things:
1. The little girls are still lacking maneuverability--especially in high-spood (speed) turns.
2. The reason Poody's other nickname is The Great White. She does her best Jaws impression in the middle zoom shot.

WARNING:
1. This hike, regardless of short distance and not much elevation gain, is strenuous because of remarkable steepness. Do not try it when you are not in excellent physical condition. Not suitable for people over 50 years of age.
2. The trail is unmaintained and overgrown. You may encounter dangerous animals such as ticks, snakes, mountain lions and bears. The numerous tracks tell the high risk! DO NOT HIKE ALONE!!
3. Must wear shoes with good traction to fight loose sands.
4. Bring a minimum of 80 ounce of water. Avoid summer.
5. The unsigned broad firebreak is treacherous. You are likely to get lost on the way down. Watch for a fork on the left. Walk on the left side of the firebreak so that you have a better chance of seeing the fork. If you miss it and reach an unrecognized dead end, go back up the mountain and search for that fork. It will be on your right at that time.
DISCLAIMER:
The upload of this photo album is for picture viewing purpose. I oppose this hike due to the risks involved. Anyone who disregards my objection takes full responsibility for his/her actions. The unofficial warnings given above are for reference only. Accuracy is not guaranteed.

Volunteers are needed! We can certainly use volunteers of all ages and ability to help us cleanup our community, the environment and the Chesapeake Bay! Please mark your calendars for our cleanup of the Historic Bread and Cheese Creek on Saturday, April 2, 2016 at 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM, Rain or Shine, we clean up the section of Historic Bread and Cheese Creek from the Berkshire Area to North Point Road. Registration will be at 2408 Plainfield Road, Dundalk, MD 21222. This event will be run in conjunction with the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay’s Annual Project Clean Stream and American River’s Nation River Cleanup as well as Reclaim the Bay! We have also attached an event flyer for your use.
We run our cleanups as a family event with plenty of ways for volunteers to participate. We welcome every type of person of every ability level to contribute and assist with the cleanup. Though it is true we will need people to dig out shopping carts and haul trash to the dumpsters, we need people to run water, food, tools, and trash bags (both empty and full) to individuals in the creek. People to sort recyclables from the debris removed. People will be needed to help at registration, setup food and snacks as well as many other less strenuous activities. We are also authorized to sign-off on Community Service and Service Learning Hours for students. The more people we have, the easier the work will be for everyone. We will provide lunch and snacks as well as gloves. A limited number of tools are available for sign-out, but suggest bringing your own if you have them
Volunteers are also needed to arrive early and stay late for setup and break down. Photographers and Videographers also needed!
