Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

The We're Here! gang is learning languages today.
I've been studying Spanish since our first trip to Mexico to visit an online friend. Her family welcomed us with open arms, and we fell in love with them, and with their country. As soon as we returned to Canada, we enrolled in night school, taking all three levels at least twice, and seeing the same fellow students every time we re-enrolled.
Twenty or so years ago, I created a study group of six fellow students (now friends) who met for years at my place on Monday nights. We call ourselves Grupo Lunático. (I even designed a word mark and had coasters made...see comments.) When the pandemic hit, we simply shifted to twice weekly by Zoom. We still meet that way, as Zoom makes it easy to maintain twice weekly meetings without driving time or even the need to put shoes on.
We do grammar exercises, then take turns reading a page or so from whatever book we're working on, and translating it on the fly. We are currently reading "Caramelo" by Sandra Cisneros. Before that, we read another of her books, "La Casa en Mango Street". Before that, we read "Liberen a los Niños" by Craig Kielburger -- a Canadian boy who tackled child labour throughout the world.
I also look for theatre in Spanish. Not too long ago, Fred and I went to an evening of stand-up all in Spanish. Challenging!!!
I also like to watch telenovelas and various other programs in Spanish. On the TV in the photo is Luisito Comunica, Mexican youtuber who goes all over the world, sharing his experiences with his viewers. This episode is on the food of Bolivia.
On my laptop is my tutor Luis, who runs "La Hacienda" – a Spanish language school in Guanajuato, Mexico. I have been studying with him for years. Six or seven years? He is an absolute whiz at grammar, which I really appreciate. Our weekly Skype sessions are so helpful. On the table are a couple of books from Argentina and an advanced grammar book, which the Lunáticos have been through twice, chapter by chapter.
My other modes of practice include engaging any Spanish speaker I hear on the bus or on the street. I'll often get into great conversations, and these random episodes sometimes result in friendships. One woman I met on the Seabus (a little ferry that's part of our transit system) invited us to dinner with her family in November. It was delightful! They will be coming here for dinner in February. Who says "don't talk to strangers"!!!
I used to blog in Spanish, but stopped after a few years, as I got busy at work. Perhaps I'll revive the blog, now that I'm retired.
,...... trying to learn how to use my new radio poppers. I wish I was more a techie sort of person.. Reading about this is not really wanting to stick properly..lol. I am excited to be able to use a new tool though.

This was the photo I entered in our competition at work the subject was learning. Excuse the creased sheets lol!!
I worked with Gever Tulley to build this learning wall of our session on what engagement in the classroom of the future might look like.

Learning points from this photo:
a) 1/320s isn't fast enough to "stop" the train from this angle
b) wait until the loco has reached the right place (or take multiple exposures)
"Western" diesel-hydraulic locomotive No. D1015 Western Champion has just passed under Chelvey bridge, North Somerset, with 1Z52, the 07:00 Solihull - Plymouth excursion on Saturday 10th May 2014. It's been many years since I witnessed a "Western" passing at speed, so I'll admit it was incredibly thrilling to hear that unique sound again. I planned to have another go at getting a decent shot when the train made its return journey later in the day, only to see the "whizzo" hurtle past as I arrived at the vantage point: learning point (c) check Real Time Trains for schedule changes right up to the last minute.
On exile on Saint Helena, Napoleon only had an English newspaper to read. He couldn't read English and had to start to learn. The page on display looks like he started eagerly but got more and more distracted and annoyed, ending up in drawing of what looks like a fortress.
Sorry for the bad quality---I tried to take a picture of the real exhibit but got stopped by a guard. The photo shows a screenshot of the exhibition book.
I just started an excellent online class via Coursera titled Exploring Neural Data Exploring Neural Data that started 29 September 2014. Monica Linden and David Sheinberg of Brown University are teaching this class. Our first assignment was to detect spikes (action potentials) in a few seconds of recorded data from a neuron. The assignment was to modify some Python code to plot the data, and then detect and plot the spike activity, and plot all the detected spikes. This plot shows voltage versus time, there are about 88,000 samples in this data. To figure out the "spikes", a threshold is applied (in voltage and time) to separate the spike from the noise. The red lines were drawn for every spike detected.
It was very satisfying to work with this data, and to learn a bit more about neuroscience (and Python). We are using the Spyder environment, which is quite a nice development environment. This assignment took me a little longer than I thought it would (finished about 530 am Sunday morning).

After yesterday's buckle shinin', another new American word for me to learn was 'bobtail'.
Bobtailing is when a semi-truck is traveling without an attached trailer. This can occur when a semi-truck is in the process of picking up a trailer (and has no trailer to deliver) or is returning from delivery (and has no trailer to pick up). Bobtails are a common sight on Texas highways.
Once again, James McMurtry's lyrics are spot on. Unfortunately if you follow the song to the end, there is a sad ending.
"She's been green breaking horses when she's home from the road,
Waiting on dispatch to find her a load.
She leased all but the trap, ponies can't graze a thing,
Another bobtail of coastal ought to last them 'til spring.
Randy says not to worry, he'll feed while she's gone.
She's got the Freightliner idling half up on his lawn.
He don't like her driving when the northers come blue
But if the horses went hungry Lord knows what she'd do"
jukebox # 505
Here is a rather good solo live version of the same song.
Benefits of Online Learning is no more a topic of debate and the need of it in educational assistance is widely accepted. It is always better to have assistance in education that is available for students without any constraints of time. bit.ly/2QHT9hN

Early childhood education is the organized practice of educating those who are in early childhood, one of the most vulnerable stages in life. According to the NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children), it spans the human life from birth to age eight.
Early childhood education often focuses on children learning through play.
The terms preschool education and kindergarten emphasize education around the ages of 3-6 years. The terms "early childhood learning," "early care," and "early education" are comparable with early childhood education. The terms Day care and Childcare do not embrace the educational aspects. Many childcare centers are now using more educational approaches. They are creating curricula and incorporating it into their daily routines to foster greater educational learning.
Researchers in the field and early childhood educators both view the parents as an integral part of the early childhood education process. Early childhood education takes many forms depending on the beliefs of the educator or parent.
Much of the first two years of life are spent in the creation of a child's first "sense of self" or the building of a first identity. This is a crucial part of children's makeup—how they first see themselves, how they think they should function, how they expect others to function in relation to them. For this reason, early care must ensure that in addition to employing carefully selected and trained caretakers, program policy must emphasize links with family, home culture, and home language, meaning caregivers must uniquely care for each child using Developmentally Appropriate Practice, Individually Appropriate Practice and Culturally Appropriate Practice. Care should support families rather than be a substitute for them.
If a young child doesn't receive sufficient nurturing, nutrition, parental/caregiver interaction, and stimulus during this crucial period, the child may be left with a developmental deficit that hampers his or her success in preschool, kindergarten, and beyond.
Worst-case scenarios such as those found in Russian and Romanian orphanages demonstrate how the lack of proper social interaction and development of attachment affect the developing child. Children must receive attention and affection to develop in a healthy manner.
Learning a new thing is cool. Alex asked me to remove the training wheels from his bike. He wanted to ride his bike so bad that it took him a couple of days to learn. He is doing great. He just needs a little push to get started. There is more to learn like steering and brake. I still remember when I rode my bike for the first time. It was exciting!
