body language and emotional state of a conductor (shot at a music workshop while rehearsing with a group of singers)
On a warm May morning in 2012, my youngest daughter went out to feed the horses before school. She came rushing back in to tell me there was a dog in the dry lot with the pony and donkey. I immediately thought she meant a menacing dog who was harassing them (although, quite honestly, I pity any dog who would take on those two!). After more questioning on our way out the door, her terminology changed to “well, it’s a puppy”. I ran out, stepping into my muck boots on the back porch. There, under the lean-to, was a small black and tan dog. Not a menace, and not a puppy. He was a senior Miniature Pinscher covered in ticks. He barked in my general direction but seemed to be acting strangely. As I was able to get closer, I saw that his eyes looked cloudy, he clearly had cataracts and limited vision. I was astonished that the two equines whose territory he violated had let him squat, unscathed. I truly believe they sensed his condition and allowed him some room. I got him some water and then printed off signs which I hung at the end of our street as well as another busy intersection (well, busy for in the country) near our home. Later that afternoon, I got a call. It was an older man, saying he had lost his dog, his one companion. He described his little dog with perfect detail. I told him where we lived and he drove right over (as it turned, he lived just down the road from us). He pulled up and I took him to the barn. His little dog ran to him and the man scooped the canine up and kissed him. He told me how he had gone to the Animal Shelter 8 years ago, when the dog was already well into adulthood, and brought the little guy home….his Sparky. He gushed on, explaining how Sparky was the best dog he had ever known. He then told me that Sparky has diabetes and was in need of his meds, having missed two doses at this point. He was surprised Sparky made it to our house at all, given his vision impairment. We said our good-byes, he thanked me and was on his way. The man and his dog stayed on my mind all day. That night, I went onto Petfinder (which is not rare for me to do) and searched for adult dogs in our area shelters. I found a Pomeranian mix at the Animal Control facility. The next day, our oldest (who was on a break from school that day) and I went to the shelter to visit the red and white 16 pound mix. My heart was sick as we filed past cage after cage of canines, all barking and distressed, each one needing a home and pack once again. We were taken to a back building and went inside to find lots of puppies and smaller dogs. The Pomeranian mix was in the very back corner, in a cinderblock-walled space. Her only view was the back wall…no other dogs, no windows, just a gray wall. She was all too eager to come out of her living space. She had an old towel for a bed, fresh food and water. We took her on a walk of the grounds. She was anxious to “do her business” and liked the time in the beautiful Spring weather. The little dog, known only as A015045, was well-mannered and sweet. She had been at the shelter for one month with the shelter staff estimating her age as 2 or 3 years old. She was found running the streets in Rogers with a pack of dogs chasing her (they speculate she was in heat). While I said, “well, let’s think about it” to EG, I knew in my heart we were coming back for her. We took the redhead back to her kennel and she wouldn’t go in, planting her feet on the floor. I had to pick her up and place her inside which was, of course, heartbreaking. After picking up our youngest from school, we returned to finalize the paperwork on our Zia (named by EX). She has been a fabulous addition to our pack of three, who all live in the house with their humans. Z Girl is bullet fast (her Corgi herding genes), howls when the doorbell rings, and is nothing but appreciative to have a pack. She is the sweetest dog we have and wants nothing more than to be cuddled up with her humans. This is the face of adult canine rescue. She makes us smile every day. www.petfinder.org
Seems old Socrates was constantly questioning everyone including the guys in power.........like Pericles. If you would have been a common citizen of Athens at the time; you might have thought he had a loose screw or two much like we do the street preachers of present day. He was tried and convicted but given a way out if he quit the behavior that landed him in trouble. Instead he chose hemlock to make a point I guess. Stuff does nasty things to the body before you find out if you check into the basement or the attic.

OK, one could argue that there are already too many self-portraits here on Flickr... But I find that the only person with the patience needed to model for me is myself. Or perhaps I'm not pushy enough!
In any case, this shot is my creative response to the excellent self-portraits by Rekha.
Reached #178 in Explore.

Thinking Dice questions. Obviously using questioning succinctly and in a carefully planned manner helps your teaching. Why they need to be in primary colours and in an illegible font I have not yet learnt.
I think it may be related to the now widely discredited Thinking Hats stuff promulgated by de Bono. Very 2011/12 in tone.
See you at the #NYCDragMarch!

Monday wash day!
Questioning the status of ordinary washing places, Caroline Jacob has shifted the usual location of the laundrette and will transform Mediamatic into a laundrette to present wASH. Preserving the social aspect of the laundrette, Monday Washday Laundrette is an opportunity to gather, try out wASH, as well as tell the stories emerging its creation. As an homage to the heirloom custom and the recipe embodied in the laundry detergent, visitors will be invited to wash their laundry in the space. The laundrette will open its doors every Monday and will be available for free use all day long. Visitors might become performers, clothes gesticulated, machines resonated.

PEACEKEEPING
For many Canadians, our peacekeeping tradition has become an important part of our national identity. Questioning the role of peacekeeping in our history and national identity is certainly provocative, but do Canada's international contributions during the Cold War merit a deeper look?
Canada did participate in many peacekeeping missions during the Cold War period Lester B. Pearson, a Canadian, is considered by many to be the founding father of peacekeeping. Canadian troops were involved in dozens of missions in Africa, the Midd East, Europe and Asia, earning high praise for their contribution to conflict resolution Canada is often seen, especially by Canadians, as a sort of neutral, honest broker motivated by humanitarian reasons to send troops abroad in the cause of peace.
While humanitarian concern and a desire for peace are important Canadian values, were there other motivations for our actions? Canada was a committed member of NATO and did not want Communist influence to spread. Did the Cold War influence our peacekeeping activity? A case in point is Cyprus. Canadian troops served on the Mediterranean island for decades reducing conflict between Greek and Turkish Cypriots Greece and Turkey were important NATO allies, and the fighting in Cyprus was straining relations between them. Conflict in Cyprus therefore risked weakening NATO and exposing an unstable Cyprus to Soviet influence. Do you think NATO's goals factored into the peacekeeping strategy?
Canadian peacekeeping missions were among the most high-profile activities of our military during much of the Cold War. Media paid a lot of attention to our troops serving in remote locations or in world "hot-spots" like Egypt, Pakistan or the Congo. After Korea, Canadian forces weren't involved in sustained combat operations-we even refused to send combat troops to Vietnam. To many, it seemed peacekeeping was our primary objective.
Was another story unfolding for Canada's military as well? Peacekeeping involved a small part of our military personnel and resources. Where did the rest go? The majority of Canada's military effort was dedicated to training for a war between NATO and the Warsaw Pact. The Navy developed anti-submarine techniques designed specifically to combat Soviet submarines. The Air Force prepared to intercept Soviet bombers over North America and to attack Soviet troop concentrations in Europe with nuclear weapons. How should we weigh our NATO training in our history?
What do you think about Canada's peacekeeping tradition during the Cold War?

After watching Exit Through The Gift Shop I came out of that experience questioning what is design? What is art? What is right? What is wrong? Are there rules? What makes a great artist? What makes a great piece of art? What makes a bad piece of art? Is the technique important? Is the idea important? What makes a bad artist? When is something finished? When is something unfinished?
The piece above is literally a line drawing of a scan of a photo of Mr. Oizo. I was actually going to do something else with this piece but then I start asking myself if it looked good as it is? What about it made me like it the way it is? If I where to put this on to a t shirt? Would it sell? What if I was to use this for street art?
The thing is when it comes to it... I have no idea. Maybe I should experiment with this image alone? Maybe I should do as many things with this as I can? Or could I be reading too much into this whole thing?
The bird I'm questioning is standing near the sandbar in this photo. My guess is juvenile Cormorant or Anhinga, but I am not sure.
I was quite a distance away and this is heavily cropped.
The photo was taken June 22, 2015 (summer) at Huntington Beach State Park, Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, United States of America.
