Time to Learn RSS

This one has been hard for me. I still do not think I understand feeds and how they work. I keep wanting to think of them as links... I did set up an account on bloglines and selected some areas of interest...I think that I will receive some regular information updates in the information areas I selected. If anyone can clarify this concept for me in different language I am open to learning .

Flickr Fun …
I recently visited the Flickr home page. I did register and established an account. I want to set-up a private photo group and invite all the “Dog People” I know to join and share their photos, stories, and brainstorm ways to serve organizations like the SPCA. If you are a dog person and want to join, you will be welcome. The guidelines will be simple… take pictures; share them and your stories. After the group is established, we can make a Doggie poster and sell it to help support the SPCA and our dog friends. All ideas are welcome. The most important thing is to enjoy sharing pictures and the wonderful relationships we have with our dog friends.

This is one of my favorite family dog pictures. Her name is Lobo, named after one of the University of New Mexico mascots, “Louisa Lobo”. She is a registered, 10 year old yellow retriever. She loves to play ball, boss cows and horses, and is a dear gentle friend.


Summer 2007 space camp is all about going back to the Moon. Kids attending the June camps will form small teams of 6 with two teen volunteer facilitators. Kids will have the opportunity to build a model of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) that NASA will will launch in 2008. After the building is done they will move to Mission Control located in the library computer lab. Each team will have access to actual lunar data of 4 potential lunar (base/colony) sites. Kids will access the information from a local Mission Moon web site. The mission is for each team to evalute the lunar data and recommend to NASA scientists one site that they want the LRO to visit and acquire more data during the 2008 mission.

My Biggest Obstacle to Learning...

It is as Dr. Ginott says ... fear of so much. When I am not afraid I can create, have fun and somehow learn stuff without knowing it is happening...
