COCHITI LAKE, N.M. – Park rangers participate in Ranger Water Rescue Training at the lake. During this training the rangers practice "self-rescue" techniques, and then learn and practice rescue techniques. These techniques provide training and tools on how to effectively rescue injured victims and get them on the boat to get them to safety.

Aprendiendo a volar sin descuidar, sin dejar de lado aunque quedes como un árbol plantado, escuchando música bebiendo café para permanecer, y así con el tiempo unas nuevas alas crecer.

e Rolex Learning Center, conçu par le bureau d’architecture japonais de renommée internationale SANAA, est à la fois un laboratoire d’apprentissage, une bibliothèque abritant 500’000 ouvrages et un centre culturel international. Il est ouvert aussi bien aux étudiants qu’au public. Sur une surface continue de 20 000 m2 il offre services, bibliothèques, centres d’information, espaces sociaux, lieux d’études, restaurants, cafés et magnifiques extérieurs. Le bâtiment est extrêmement novateur, avec des pentes douces et des terrasses ondulant autour de «patios» intérieurs. Sans oublier les piliers quasiment invisibles qui soutiennent le toit courbe, une structure qui a exigé des méthodes de construction inédites.
«Le Rolex Learning Center illustre parfaitement notre école, où les frontières traditionnelles entre les disciplines sont dépassées, où les mathématiciens et les ingénieurs rencontrent les neuroscientifiques et les microtechniciens pour imaginer les technologies qui amélioreront notre quotidien. Nous invitons le public à découvrir cet espace afin qu'il comprenne que travailler dans le domaine scientifique, c’est participer au progrès de la société», déclare Patrick Aebischer, président de l’EPFL.
Our experts identify best practice nationally and internationally in community justice and deliver full career training using a blend of digital and face-to-face sessions to meet the needs of the justice workforce.
They provide specialised training for Scottish social work and many other justice sector professionals across a range of areas.
The driver of the car in the foreground drove into the bollard, nearly reversed into a woman in a wheelchair, then nonchalantly parked on the double yellow. So glad I didn't bring my car here, if this is the standard of driving to be expected.

An almost 4 month old Vizsla puppy with a Hasselblad and Ilford Delta 3200 film. Self developed. She is eagerly learning about the world, and how certain behavior receives treats and praise. Though she doesn't understand why I give her a treat a week later as I view the negatives and say "good girl!"

Tom Stevens, a disabled United States Air Force veteran, discusses learning through overcoming substance use and abuse in his talk "Learning from Addiction: So Hard to Change."
TEDxPioneerValley, an independently organized event licensed by TED, explores learning that takes place in unexpected ways, cracking open traditional notions of how learning happens. The day-long conference at Amherst College Jan. 21, 2012, is presented in collaboration with the Holyoke Community College Adult Learning Center, Amherst College, Smith College and Mount Holyoke College.

In the Machine Learning Studio, visitors can use computer vision and machine learning applications to discover how machines learn and perceive their environment. Working with tech trainers, they can build and train self-driving model cars here, program robots with facial recognition, and gain insights into how they can teach these devices a wide variety of activities.

As a child I always wanted a piano, now I have one and can rarely find the time to play it! I love playing and find it both taxing and soothing at the same time. The dogs seem to like it to, they always come and lay by the piano when I play. It's such a pure natural sound, maybe it soothes them as well!
Just before Christmas I was down stairs on my own, late one night, totally engrossed with a piece of music I was playing, when something whispered loudly HEY! in my ear! Totally freaked me out, I went cold from head to toe, shut the piano lid, and went upstairs to bed!
Now we do have a little spirit upstairs who likes to bolt the bathroom door from the inside, but this is the first time any thing has happened downstairs! I don't mind the one upstairs so much, but its a pain in the arse when you have to go and get the ladder to climb through the bathroom window to undo the very stiff bolt, which incidentally is slid right in the catch!

I had this "job" living in undergraduate residence halls being an all-purpose big-sister/organizer/mediator/task-master. I think I was also supposed to be an intellectual inspiration, but not so sure if that happened. As vaguely worded as the job was, it was intense and took up a lot of my dissertation time... but in return I had a place to live and discovered an energetic crew of student friends. The toughest part was having to draw the line on certain types of behavior according to the rules (some of which might be necessary, but didn't really make sense).
Here, we are learning meringue. We helped organize an event for international students - we had lots of great food. Fun and food seem to attract people. This was a pretty successful event as college programs go... managed to appeal to a wide spectrum of students who usually don't seek out stuff beyond their comfort zone. We had a blast.

I must just get stupid every year. At the end of the summer, I can get hundreds of hummingbird shots in a day. Today, I went out for the first time to really concentrate on hummingbirds. I managed to stink up the joint. Granted, the hummingbirds aren't properly "trained" yet. They kept going to the wrong place and all of that. I haven't gotten the hang of the light yet either. I only got a small handful of shots that didn't stink.
Kind of interesting - I have two males hanging around (without a lot of fighting). I don't think that the above is the mate to the female that shows up every couple of hours. She is looking WAY "with egg" sort of a flying blimp, especially compared to the males which tend to be a bit smaller anyway. If history is a guide, she will show up thinner with a lot of her breast feathers plucked (to line the nest?) in a couple of days.
Update - my agent just rejected this shot because "the wings are kind of blurry." For God's sake! It's a HUMMINGBIRD!!!!!!!!!!!

I dropped by my local library this morning, and took a shortcut through the children’s section. It is still early & the children are only starting to arrive by they are already excited & giggling in the hallway. It certainly looks like a lot of fun will be had here soon.
I have the unique experience of being the father of homeschoolers. We spend our days traveling, and we experience learning in a different way. As a photographer, I get to document this experience for my daughters hoping they will remember this opportunity we have.
This was taken at the Omaha Zoo, my girls were telling one another about the different type of Penguins in the exhibit. As photos go, this might be my all time favorite.
