Part of each talk was showing that there's a normal person under all that turnout gear, to help show that firefighters aren't scary so kids shouldn't hide from them during a fire.
i had a moment to explain my story of how i got to shiva's teacher training. i told her about my first vinyasa class with simone mckay in bali and how she recommened shiva to me for flow/dance-inspired yoga.
‘The Political Reporter’ is a new media installation by Boone, NC-based artist Mark Nystrom that generates random, but intriguing statements with words found on political websites and in the media. Sources include the Obama and Romney presidential campaigns, the Democratic and Republican parties, bloggers and the news media.
‘The Political Reporter’ animates a cloud of letters and periodically makes statements. These images are screen grabs taken while ‘The Political Reporter’ was running on Election Day and the day after.
Letters from words gathered from conservative sources are colored red and ones from liberal sources are blue. ‘The Political Reporter’s’ vocabulary includes over 70,000 words, but only 300 appear on the screen at any given time. As words are used to make statements, they are replaced by randomly chosen new ones from the list of 70,000.
There is simply no way to explain certain artifacts found on this site. This piece was clearly manufactured using a sophisticated mold technology, and the extraordinary nature of this piece is how there are many questions that cannot be answered with a simple conclusion or answer. There is a thin ochre glaze coating embedded with images helping confuse the conclusion of this piece. After studying this piece for many years and finally using the premise that the stones and artifacts on this site represent concepts and representations of physical elements within our galaxy for the purpose of navigation and teaching; using this galaxy premise may be a mechanism to better explain the concept that this piece helps define the contours and physical geography of one of the physical arms of our galaxy.
This piece initially resembles a cross-section of ancient piping that fits together like pieces of a puzzle........The problem with this premise is: "Why would a developed civilization of high technology create a public water or drainage system of a ceramic nature, if they already had metal technology within their repertoire; Why would they compromise their water supply and drainage with inefficient kiln fired technology over metal??" Unless this culture was intelligent enough to rationalize a compromised technology based on raw material availability.....This is an extraordinary concept when considering that our most ancient North American Ancestors never held any of these technologies on any level. The precision curvature and smoothness achieved in this ceramic piece could have only been achieved by an advanced molding technique using metals or petroleum based materials like plastic or rubber; since this precision engineered curvature valve-like artifact also contains a pitch. Discounting cruder mold manufacturing techniques using clay or wood; these mold materials must be eliminated because of the smoothness of the artifact.. What was the material used to create the mold for this precision piece.....Metal???
When you carefully observe the surface of this piece; notice the ochre based translucent ceramic glaze holding micro images integrated with similar techniques of micro fragments helping integrate resilient images within the surface. This piece and its content is exactly why I have come to the conclusion that this piece may have been used and intended as a teaching tool for those who eventually found this mound and realized the content of the stones and artifacts. If this piece does not represent a cross-section analysis of an arm of our galaxy, I apologize ahead of time; in the case anyone is challenged on any level regarding this conclusion; North America, culture unknown.
Students of Class V put up an amazing display of exhibits related to science. An array of working and non-working models greeted the visitors and the young scientists explained each exhibit perfectly. There were models of solar cooker, solar and lunar eclipse, water purification apparatus, rain water harvesting, conversion of mechanical energy to electrical energy using windmills, capillary action, models of repiratory system, skeletal system, organic farm and many more.
The young children never fail to amaze us!
Beautyberry - Callicarpa americana
Sara explains - Native beautyberry grow berries right off the stem - Japanese ones have berries that grow from stalks ...Clusters of purplish to bluish berries develop from August through October and encircle the stem. plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/callicarpa-americana/

I spent a year living in Cologne. I've witnessed the city transform in many ways during this time. It is a living city in so many ways. Some of my most enjoyable times are spent jumping on my bike and exploring, to see what else it has to offer in the not so obvious places.
Ya put the solid water into the extremely dangerous rotating blade thing here ... and snow comes out.
