We co-hosted an illuminating ‘Organic Learning Day’ day with Yeo Valley at Holt Farm in Somerset (spring 2014), designed to provide an enjoyable introduction to the principles of Organic.
Experts from the Soil Association and Yeo Valley shared up-to-date knowledge on what sets organic products apart, while an afternoon tour of the 500 hectare farm tour provided a valuable insight into organic farming in practice, as well as an opportunity to see the cows being milked!
Yeo Valley served up a delicious organic lunch, overlooking the stunning landscape, and afternoon tea and cake in their beautiful organic gardens.

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension thats learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i
Friction lock - set.
Mixture - rich
Propellers - fully forward
Flaps - set - 10 degrees
Engine gauges and suction - check
Mixture set to maximum percent - recheck
Flight instruments...
Altimeters - check both
(garbled word) - on
Navigation lights - on
Strobes - on
(to tower): confirm 3-8-echo ready for departure
(tower): hello again, this is now 129.4
(to tower): 129.4. its to go.
(tower): you may commence your takeoff, winds over 10 knots.
(to tower): 3-8-echo
Easy on the brakes. take it easy. its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
Theres no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well, the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
(Lyrics from Tom Petty 'Learning to fly')
Roadtested several times this last week and various adjustments made in readiness for MOT test (very soon I hope)
I was given a copy of photoshop at a time before I was connected to the intertnet and I had no scanner, I learned to use the application initially as a painting device and one of my first creations was cleocatra.. This was for a student of mine who said she had seen the most wonderful teapot of a cat/mermaid dressed as cleopatra. She was trying to find a copy desperately but couldn't. I decided I'd try to create a visual momento for her.
Our son is addicted to hockey. We took him out 4 times this winter on the outdoor rink. He spent a lot of his time on his butt like in this photo but his eyes would light up everytime he saw the hockey players playing and would tell anyone who would listen "hockey!". He loves it at the rink.
I always carry these 3 pocket guides with my camera. However I never seem to reach for them when I use my camera. This means that their wisdom is beyond me and delays my learning the spells and incantations involved in the magical and wonderous world of photography.

At first glance, Twitter might appear to be just one of many online attention drains. But tweeting often proves surprisingly practical. A number of WU Libraries staff are among those who think so, and an upcoming series of free workshops will help interested members of the WUSTL community explore why.
Titled Twitter 201, the free miniseries is open to all students, faculty, and staff, with three 40-minute sessions on different topics to be held the last Thursday of the month in February, March, and April (Olin Library, Arc Presentation Room, Level A). Register to attend one, two, or all three of the sessions:
* During the first session (4 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 23), librarians Erin Leach and Brian Vetruba will discuss Twitter as a way to develop professionally and foster meaningful professional connections. Twitter has become a valuable networking tool for professionals in a variety of disciplines. It can be used to start conversations with “the experts,” to get help with a tricky professional problem, and to follow conference activities.
* The second workshop (4 p.m. Thursday, March 29) will focus on how writers and readers can tackle Twitter. Staff members Evie Hemphill and Tim Lepczyk use Twitter to share ideas, find inspiration, engage with authors and editors, and keep their writing sharp. The new salon is a hashtag away and open to everyone.
* The third session (4 p.m. Thursday, April 26) aims to help participants understand the power of the 140-character tweet. Librarians Jaleh Fazelian and Makiba Foster will lead a discussion of Twitter’s instrumental role as an unlikely galvanizing tool in various national and global movements. The revolution will not be televised, but it will be tweeted. From Iran to Wall Street, from Tunisia to Egypt, Twitter was and is a part of these recent revolutions.
In addition to the Twitter 201 series, an introductory Twitter 101 session is scheduled for 3 p.m. Thursday, February 9. Geared for the Twitter novice, this hour-and-a-half session will cover account creation, search features, what it means to follow someone, how to construct a tweet, what hashtags and retweets are, and other Twitter basics.

Learning to surf, Rico Surf School, "Posto 4", Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro. February 12th, 2011.
Loyola University New Orleans is now partnering with the center through its service learning program, placing college students there to help mentor, tutor and sometimes just listen to the kids. The students help with homework, coach youth basketball teams, lead music and arts activities, and give computer tutoring to children who might otherwise be exposed to unsafe or unhealthy alternatives. Picture taken November 4, 2010.

I think she was too young for school (in China, school starts at age 6) so she was getting a head start on reading on her own practising from pages ripped out of a book she probably found in the garbage.

This young girl was getting riding lessons from her mother. I'm thinking the seat was too low and perhaps a riding lesson when you might fall shouldn't be done in a dress! Her mother was very patient and the girl was a good sport!

I'm learning how to use photo shop at evening class. This is after my third lesson and although I am slow on the up take, I am quite pleased with this.
que ilusión más grande cuando me la entregaron en la autoescuela la semana pasada.
Ahora cuelga de mi coche :-)
