Roosevelt The Man in the Arena
This man, if he were in the 'political arena' today would have a tough row to hoe... But I would venture to guess that the character of this man would inspire millions to join the good fight right along his side.

How Much is a Life Worth?
WARNING: THIS VIDEO WILL RUIN YOUR ENTIRE DAY.
But you must watch, keeping in mind the following quote:
"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive."

Comet and the Moon
Pan-STARRS comet of 2013 taken with the crescent moon. If you are in the PC web view, you can move your mouse over the image to see where I have marked the location of the comet or from the moon, look up and to the left at about 10 o'clock about 2/3 the way over on the image, you'll see a white speck and upwards to the left, you'll see what looks like a smear which is actually the tail.

Aunt Don's Box of Memories
Aunt Don's Box of Memories, a set on Flickr.
I stumbled across this and many other negatives contained in a box which was all that was left of my great aunt Donella Smith. I had to fashion a template out of poster board in order to get them to fit on the scanner bed. Most of these haven't been seen in probably 92 years. What as the scanned images appeared on the screen made my hair stand on end as I sat in astonishment.

Clay Mine 360° Panorama
Ever wonder where bricks come from? Here is a 360° panorama of a clay mine pit I worked on recently in East Texas. The walls of this pit are around 40 feet high with a slope of around 20° (STEEP!). Use the navigation wheel to pan and zoom or click the full screen idon.

Curious Traveller
Meanwhile, back on Mars as Earth bound humans are killing each other over conflicting beliefs, Curiosity is making discoveries that may possibly get ourselves out of the jam we have created for ourselves due to our greed. Keep in mind that NASA accounts for less than 1% of the federal budget. Care to guess how much we spend killing people with drones?
