Venice sometimes has visual surprises to offer: If you stroll along the Giardini (art biennale park), you can suddenly lose the entire normal vista of the San Giorgio island, and all you see is a giant cruise ship...
One of the first interesting things I came across in Japan after landing
was the vending machines. Most vending machines in America usually either
have buttons representing the different drinks or show all the drinks in
the machine. Here it's a bit different. The drinks are shown visually, but
they are seen as plastic replicas, just to show what kind of drinks they
are, while the reals ones are hidden inside. They also show each drink
price labeled instead of having to push a button to find out the price.
Some of the drinks in Japan are rather interesting and are far from their
normal, American counterpart. Some of their American-based drinks even seem
to have a higher quality in taste as well. One of the coffee vending
machines even got to show a live video feed of your drink being made. It's
the little things that make this place pretty cool.

May Day solidarity rally and march for social justice, human, labor and immigrant rights = Concentración y marcha solidaria del Primero de Mayo para la justice social, los derechos humanos, derechos laborales y los derechos del inmigrante, New Haven, Connecticut, Monday May 1, 2017.
From Press Release:
Four Connecticut Cities Strike and March on National “Day Without Immigrants”
Protesters unite to show solidarity among immigrant workers, Yale teachers on hunger strike, African Americans, women, and LGBT community
New Haven, CT - Hundreds of immigrants, workers, business owners and families took the streets in New Haven, Stamford, Danbury and Bridgeport on Monday, May 1 to join a national strike, a “Day Without Immigrants.” In New Haven, after rallying on the Green, more than twenty community organizations marched toward Fair Haven, where some immigrant businesses shut down for the day to demonstrate that this country depends on immigrants. Hundreds of thousands of workers and businesses across the United States pledged to strike in the largest national strike since May 1, 2006. (Visit lahuelga.com)
From the Green, protesters planned to march to a nail salon where workers were owed unpaid wages; a bank funding oil pipelines; the site where Malik Jones was killed by police 20 years ago; and the Fair Haven neighborhood where immigration raids occurred ten years ago.
“This May Day Strike is the first in a series of national strikes that will intensify,” said John Lugo of Unidad Latina en Accion, a grassroots organization of immigrant workers from greater New Haven. “After years of broken promises from politicians, we have woken up to the reality that only we can protect our communities. When we go on strike, this country will not take us for granted. We will make our families safe. We will win dignity and permanent protection for 11 million undocumented workers.”
“My dad, Luis Barrios, is scheduled to be deported this Thursday morning to Guatemala,” said Jessica Barrios, a US citizen from Derby. “Congresswoman DeLauro and more than 2000 people have asked ICE to stop his deportation because he is a great person; he has no criminal record and there’s no reason to deport him after he’s lived here 24 years.”
The family will rally with activists to protest Mr. Barrios’ deportation tomorrow May 2 at 12:00 pm at the office of Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE), 450 Main Street, in Hartford. (More info: action.mijente.net/p/luisbarrios )
"I've been fasting for six days because Yale is waiting out the clock, hoping that President Trump will take away my right to a union," said Charles Decker, a graduate teacher in Political Science at Yale. "Donald Trump wants us all to be disposable, as workers, as immigrants, as women, as people of color. But by treating so many of us as disposable, they bring us together and give us the chance to share each other’s strength."
“As a mother of 2 daughters, it is my duty to stand up and fight against the inhumane, cruel and racist agenda of Trump,” said Fatima Rojas, president of the Parent Teacher Association at Columbus Family Academy, one of the New Haven Public Schools. “I stand up to protect students by creating a sanctuary school policy. I stand up to continue reinforcing New Haven as a sanctuary city that protects and welcomes immigrants, African Americans, refugees, LGBTQ people, women and anybody that may be attacked under this administration. This country depends on working class people.”
Moises Vargas, the proprietor of the New Haven seafood restaurant Mariscos el Pescador, said he closed his restaurant today “to support the cause and join the rest of our people.”

Pages done for Decorated Page Workshop, Lesson 4 Cutouts and Addons plus Patterns and Motifs, also Lesson 3 stamped background.
My big Roman numeral ten is both a cutout and an add on. I got to use my new embossing gun here. The silver was done with a rubber stamp that I made by just cutting an eraser with a serrated knife.
The X's/Roman numeral 10 serve as both motif and pattern. The hand carved stamp that I stamped with my new Versamark inkpad is also patterning. I love the Versamark! I'm going to get a lot of use out of that one.

I gave a workshop on geomancy at a retreat this past weekend. Increasingly I'm trying to make use of visual note-taking and presentation, so these were my diagrams and materials. I hung them on the wall, gave the workshop, and encouraged the attendees to photograph them for later study.
Frist Center for the Visual Arts in Nashville, Tennessee. The Art Deco style Post Office building was constructed in 1934 as a Works Progress Administration (WPA) project. The building served as a post office into the 1990s, first as Nashville’s Main U.S. Post Office and later as the Downtown Branch Post Office. It became an art museum in 2001.
In 1984 the former post office building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP No. 84000580 as the United States Post Office).
