The Humbling River- Puscifer
Nature nurture heaven and home
Sum of all and by them driven
To conquer every mountain shown
But I've never crossed the river
Brave the forest, brave the stone
Brave the icy winds and fire
Braved and beat them on my own
Yet I'm helpless by the river
Angel, angel what have I done
I face the quakes, the wind, the fire
I've conquered country, crown, and throne
Why can't I cross this river
Angel, angel what have I done
I face the quakes, the wind, the fire
I've conquered country, crown, and throne
Why can't I cross this river
Pay no mind to the battles you've won
It'll take a lot more than rage and muscle
Open your heart and hands my son
Or you'll never make it over the river
It'll take a lot more than words and guns
A whole lot more than riches and muscle
The hands of many must join as one
And together we'll cross the river
It'll take a lot more than words and guns
A whole lot more than riches and muscle
The hands of many must join as one
And together we'll cross the river
Calf and cow moose in Grand Tetons National Park.
View on Black and LARGER.
I spent four days last week in the park photographing the Tetons, moose, and elk. It was amazing how many Canon and Nikon cameras suddenly appeared (with their owners) whenever the critters show up! Read more here.

Meanwhile while we last checked on the nest ..... ;-) The chicks are thriving!! The oldest have lost most of their down and are starting to look more like little birds than prehistoric hatchlings.
The third chick is growing nicely! Ma Osprey was feeding the "baby" when I arrived. While the food supply is abundant there was always a possibility that the 3rd chick might not survive due to natures law. Looks like we'll be watching 3 chicks fledge. :-)
In the spring there was female Osprey who tried to take over the nest - pre-egg laying- well that female is still around and was very bold Sunday.
Out in the harbor - I saw her hover above an existing nest with two adult and two chicks. Later she did her fly by Ma's nest. I only have theories, but wonder if she is a recently sexually mature Osprey - as in she was a chick and this is her first migration back? Or..... she lost her mate this year.
**The migrating Osprey population - chicks do not return to nesting areas until they are sexually mature or at least 2 or 3 years old according to documentation. The Osprey chicks spend their first year at their migration grounds. While I have no proof of where the Osprey in my nest come from..... it is believed that Osprey in this area migrate to South America. Of course , Ma and Pops could have very well just been vacationing in Florida too. :-)

From U.S. Ambassador Huebner's Blog Post:
blogs.newzealand.usembassy.gov/ambassador/2011/09/commemo...
Today I had the solemn honor of participating in a memorial service to commemorate the tenth anniversary of 9-11, at St Andrew’s Church in New Plymouth. Led by my friend the Reverend Kim Francis, the memorial drew more than 500 Kiwis, Americans, Irish, and others to pray, sing, remember, and show solidarity.
Our Marine Band joined St Andrew’s choir to provide music. I was joined at the front of the congregation by the entire USA Eagles team and other special friends including Mayor Harry Duynhoven and the Mayoress, MP Jonathan Young, and my colleagues Ambassador Frankie Reed, Special Representative Reta Jo Lewis, and ANP Desk Officer Michele Petersen.
Today is a challenging day, but the juxtaposition of solemn remembrance and exuberant sport is not as discordant as it may seem at first blush. It is essential that we remember the 3,000 people murdered on 9-11, but it is equally essential that we celebrate the resilience of the human spirit and the courage and strength of communities visited by tragedy. So we carry on.
Pastor Francis asked me to speak at the service. My colleagues suggested that I share my remarks with you, so here they are:
* * *
There are rare days, maybe once every few generations, that galvanize the collective hearts and minds of humanity.
Days that dispel in a flash the billions of distractions of everyday life … that boil off, even if only temporarily, the political, religious, national, and cultural pretenses that we humans create to separate ourselves from each other.
Days that resonate deep inside us where the common core of our humanity exists, rather than on the surface where we live most of our earthly life.
9–11 was one of those days.
We watched live on television the brutal murders of 3,000 human beings from 90 different nations. They were people of all religious beliefs, all political viewpoints, young and old, men and women, gay and straight.
They were murdered by those preaching hatred, simply to instill fear.
And we reacted with near unanimous horror and sorrow.
The perpetrators of the carnage would wish us to relive that horror and feel that fear as we mark the tenth anniversary of the events of September 11, 2001. What we commemorate today, however, is not the fact that remorseless evil lives among us, something that even the most blinkered moral relativist already knows in his heart.
Instead, we commemorate the triumph of the human spirit … the common humanity, empathy, and self abnegation that set us apart from the other species on this planet.
We commemorate those police, fire, and rescue workers who raced into – rather than out of – collapsing buildings.
We commemorate those regular citizens who carried – rather than trampled – strangers as they themselves struggled down burning, smoke-filled, crumbling stairwells.
We commemorate the passengers of United Flight 93, including two American rugby players, who battled the hijackers in the aisle with coffee pots, cutlery, and shoes, broke into the cockpit, and crashed the airplane into a field in Pennsylvania, thus averting the destruction of the terrorists’ intended target, this planet’s iconic symbol of democratic self-determination, the US Capitol Building.
We commemorate those who survived the attacks, including my brother Rick, who was at the South Tower when the airplanes struck the World Trade Center.
And we remember all those we lost and their families and loved ones … not only those lost in the American Northeast on that day but all those lost on other days in Madrid, London, Bali, Nairobi, Dar es Salaam, Mumbai, Oklahoma City, Oslo, Jakarta, Manila, Kabul, Lahore, Baghdad, Kigali, and far too many other towns and cities.
But today, beyond sadness, we also commemorate, honor, and indeed celebrate the resilience and determination of communities around the world that have suffered attacks by violent extremists … communities that have pulled together and demonstrated that they are stronger than fear.
We commemorate, honor, and indeed celebrate the many people around the world working to prevent new attacks, to confront and overcome violent ideologies, and to address and combat the circumstances that create breeding grounds for violent extremism.
And finally, and I think most importantly, we commemorate, honor, and indeed celebrate what violent extremists themselves fear most: the great human instinct toward empathy, kindness, and solidarity.
As I find is often the case, the most trenchant commentary comes not from those who peddle words for a living. And the best example is found not among those who presume to lead from a safe, comfortable, and convenient distance.
I look somewhere quite different for inspiration and hope. In the days following September 11, 2001, our Embassy received an email from a Wellington mum sharing the following story:
“My son TK (who will be 4 years old next week) watched as the American flag outside the American Embassy was put to half mast yesterday morning. The Embassy is across the road from TK’s crèche, and after the flag was lowered, he asked why.
“His teachers explained to him that it was because lots of people had been hurt, and then the teachers suggested that the children take flowers over to the Embassy as a mark of respect.
“TK proudly carries his purple flowers forward and placed them beside the flag, then stood back and waited while his friends did the same. He waited, eyes on the flag. When his teachers told him it was time to go, he started crying. The teacher asked what the matter was. TK had thought that by putting the flowers under the flag that would make the people better and the flag would therefore rise again.
“TK was sad that the flowers didn’t help, so he also made 2 cardboard airplanes and asked me to send them to replace the ones that the bad men had broken.”
TK’s mum went on to say that she sent an email to United Airlines telling them about TK’s cardboard planes and offering her condolences. That email was circulated widely within the company, and a line manager in Chicago sent back an email saying:
“Touched does not begin to explain how I feel. During these hard times for us all, it helps to see the hope and goodness in our future generation. Your son must have a very kind heart.”
Yes, TK does have a very kind heart. And he’s not alone. There are millions of TKs out there, and they stepped up on the darkest of days when we needed them most.
It is in nurturing, protecting, and empowering those kind hearts that we find our best hope for building a positive legacy from the events we remember here today.

I'm currently reading a book by Michael Pollan called "Second Nature" One of the ideas he talks about is the value of the pastoral or cultivated land. Much of the work describes his experiences gardening, thinking about the impact of cultivating land and it's value to himself and society. I am a big fan of his other books and this one seems to be just as thought provoking.

THE INDISCRETION
.
They gathered at the same time every day on the station platform though never realized until that chance meeting that sparked a conversation, nurtured a sensuous tingle up and down her spine, an opportunity once more to flirt and laugh, eyes that looked within her soul, not through her with the indifference of the one who once loved her so. Whoever would have thought that Waterloo East and the journey down to the law courts would become so appealing?
The years of neglect have taken their toll on her fragile ego and shattered confidence. A husband who tolerates rather than cherishes, a preference for the golf club over candlelit dinner for two, a place at the pub with his monikered pewter pint pot hanging over the bar, a seat assured and the adoration of those around him whilst she waits at home filling empty time now that the children have long since flown the coop.
If he was equally adept and accomplished at pushing 'her' buttons as opposed to those on his infernal Play Station console, he'd surely realize that his lonely wife now feels within in a loveless marriage playing out for the benefit of the family, a façade of sorts now second nature and hard to break.
Life has become a monotonous routine for her. The face in the mirror looks back and cries, laughter lines replaced by a frown, those sultry eyes now saddened without the sparkle that once graced them, and a longing to be loved and needed as she once was, to feel the skin of another close to hers and to be held in loving arms that have been absent for so many years. And yet that glimmer of hope has raised it's little head above the precipice of tedium during the train journey down from Brighton to London three times a week. Handsome looks, a gentle smile, the soft touch of skin as boundaries are slowly crossed and a regular seat is saved for the company of a stranger who pays her more attention in those few hours than her husband has these past few years. The sound of laughter now permeates her conversations, and there is a bounce in her step, a warmth to her smile, previously so lacking.
When the day comes she is nervous like a child once more, a knot in the very pit of her stomach, a chill to her goose pimpled flesh, is she making a mistake, a fool of herself perhaps, she knows it is wrong and yet it feels so deliciously right. Reaching into her handbag she retreives the item and hand shaking like a fool, she brings it into the dull carriage light. "Call me", says the note on the tiny slip of white paper, a heart underlined along with the telephone number she hopes he'll use as she pushes it gently across the aged wooden table and rises to her feet as the station platform glides into view.
The train grinds to a halt and she so desires to turn and smile, but remains steadfast, disembarking onto the platform as the doors open and the other occupants clamour to make good their exit, a plethora of locations to scamper away to. She walks slowly down the platform, letting the herd pass her by, heading towards the exit barriers where she will swipe her Oyster card and head to the Law courts, the train now gradually pulling past her. She pushes her hair over her ear with her right hand as the carriages pass by, hopeful, contemplative, nervous. Is he watching her as he heads onwards to his final destination? Has he placed the note into his wallet to use later on? Will he phone?
She knows he will

Grow Dat Youth Farm nurtures a diverse group of young leaders through the meaningful work of growing food. The urban farm received a grant through USDA’s Office of Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production for a Mobile Food Access Expansion Project, which will respond to and improve the unhealthy relationship to local food systems experienced by young adults in New Orleans. Young adults, ages 15-24, will explore and practice sustainable agriculture, community leadership, and food justice. The project also aims to form partnerships with people (growers, distributors, retailers, and policy influencers) and institutions participating in local and regional food systems.
Clarence Webb, a Grow Dat Farm Fellow, began working as a crew member as a teenager and now is one of the full-time members of the Farm Team.

The Aga Khan School, Osh is located in the Kyrgyz Republic and was established in September 2002.
Construction of this purpose-built facility began in 2000, in the year that commemorated Osh City's 3000th year anniversary.
On October 30, 2002, the Governor of Osh Oblast, Naken Kasiev, inaugurated the School in the presence of His Highness the Aga Khan.
Aga Khan Education Services (AKES) has a long tradition of leadership in educational development. The foundations of the present system were laid by Sir Sultan Mahomed Shah, Aga Khan III, under whose guidance over 200 schools were established during the first half of the 20th century, the first of them in 1905 in Zanzibar, Gwadar in Pakistan and Mundra in India. Since the creation of Aga Khan Education Service companies in the 1970s, the schools have been centrally administered and managed.
AKES currently operates more than 200 schools and several educational programmes that provide quality pre-school, primary, secondary and higher secondary education services to more than 75,000 students in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, United Arab Emirates and Madagascar. Schools will also be developed in Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Aga Khan school in Osh, part of the Aga Khan Education Service (AKES), currently provides over 500 students with quality learning experiences in an environment which values diversity and responds creatively to the educational needs of children.
Since the first graduating class in 2007, all graduates have advanced to further education at local and international universities. This is a significant achievement of the Aga Khan School, Osh.
Since 2008, German as a second language has been integrated into the curriculum through the partnership between AKES, Kyrgyz Republic and the German Embassy in Bishkek. The German Embassy offered to provide German language subject teachers, professional development training and support for the preparation of students to pass DSD exams. The partnership with the German Embassy has given opportunities for our graduates to be admitted to German Universities and colleges, as well as employment following the completion of their undergraduate degrees in Germany.
From 2010 to 2014, AKS also organized the French Language & Culture Club as an afterschool enrichment activity with the support of the French Embassy. Trainers from the Osh State University were invited to facilitate the French language club for our students, which was quite popular. Since, 2012, the Aga Khan School, Osh has introduced an initiative to nurture a love of science, scientific research and its application among young people.
