Part 8 - The Fountain of Knowledge.
So, I placed myself in the position of a time traveler .
Here was a feeling of déjà vu.
I knew I had been here before, but it was never like this.
This was a derelict ruin, where once, as a child I had clambered the walls and run in the dried up beds of the pool, too small to reach up to the statues.
Yet now I was amazed.
The water had returned and a colossal fountain exuded forth.
Here was knowledge in extreme.
This had to result from a Fountain of Knowledge.
But sadly as the day began to end, and it was with a heavy heart that I left Perseus, astride Pegasus, in prosecution of Poseidon’s sea monster, as it pursued Andromeda.

This is one of those "Light Bulb" moments for a baby (now 8 months old!) She recognized herself in the mirror and was having a fun time poking herself =) Luckily I had my camera out since I was at Kiki's dance class so I turned around and snapped off a few while the other parents were wondering what the heck I was doing with such a big camera haha! If I didn't have the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS I probably would not have been able to get this shot without a flash. This was juiced up all the way to ISO 1600 and wide open at f/2.8. Thank god for post processing!

At the end of our Forces topic the children wrote everything they remembered on post-it-notes and posted them on the board.
A tree says: A kernel is hidden in me, a spark, a thought, I am life from eternal life. The attempt and the risk that the eternal mother took with me is unique, unique the form and veins of my skin, unique the smallest play of leaves in my branches and the smallest scar on my bark. I was made to form and reveal the eternal in my smallest special detail. ― Hermann Hesse, Bäume. Betrachtungen und Gedichte

Despite promising technological advances, improved coordination between the national and sub-national public sectors, energy suppliers, financial institutions, private companies, and the guests themselves is a prerequisite for a significant reduction of emissions from tourism activities. The “decarbonisation” of the sector—for instance through sustainable consumption and production, emission-trading or offsetting schemes—requires holistic, integrated and inclusive approaches.
Low-carbon tourism offers a win-win solution as it can enrich the traveller’s experience while simultaneously providing economic, social and environmental benefits to society. Yet, given the sheer size and complexity of the tourism value chain, the pursuit of low-carbon growth implies that all tourism stakeholders—including the accommodation, air and land transport clusters—need to be fully engaged.
This session aims to exchange knowledge with regard to low-carbon tourism, how the approach relates to destination low carbon growth, and identify examples of successful cooperation between different stakeholders, including public-private partnerships. Specific guidelines and/or recommendations should help to better understand how low-carbon models in tourism can help decouple economic growth from negative environmental impacts.

Message posted on behalf of Maeve Strom and the ES team:
For those who have gotten wind of current defamation and untruthful claims against *ES* and our pose store in copying poses from a rival pose store we filed a DMCA giving us the right to show all evidence of our creations upload dates etc etc filing a DMCA (which is a proper legal channel for any content theft..not just copyright =p covered under the act of the DMCA) in showing just the opposite..that the accusers have copied poses from *ES*.
The reason Linden Lab has this process is to hold providers liable for creations unique to individuals and items they create in SL. Just like skins or clothes which are not copyrighted in most cases.
The Blog below is written by an SL member who understands what DMCA's are. It further explains the DMCA process and issues we have gone through in our name being defamed. We urge you to read. Should anyone have questions you may feel free to IM us in-world or drop us a flickrmail.

Even though I read a lot (and forget most of the details). Before retiring in 2005 my job as a librarian was to catalog books and serials in a big academic library (FSU). Sometimes I would say that the flood of new and rehashed knowledge we handled kept reminding me of how much more ignorant I and every other individual was becoming, compared to the growing total of knowledge.
