Ring of Fire: Get the Camera

All right for those of you who are sky watchers, the annular eclipse also known as the ring-shaped solar eclipse will be occurring on Thursday and Friday (May 9th and 10th).  Be sure to get your camera ready and remember to protect your eyes by not looking directly at the sun.

Here are some past photos of the event.

Change the World: A Symphony of Science

We are human.  We are the same no matter gender or race.  We are humans.  We deserve the same rights and same opportunities.  We deserve to face our challenges, to think beyond, to engage the world for we all belong and have right to the world as we are its occupants.  We will suffer the same consequences if we fail to safeguard our biggest resources regardless of race or gender.  We will all suffer the same and die the same no matter your culture, traditions or belief system.  We are humans sustained by limited resources and we need to begin to understand how we are impacting those resources before they are depleted or the by-product destroys us.

Enjoy the video.  Not bad for a bunch of old geek guys.
