i was privileged to witness the opening of a new book by one of our
local luminaries (one who spreads the light?) Jamal Rachman! Maybe you
can guess by his pose here (unpremeditated i'm sure!) that he hopes it
will be a contribution towards peace.
He
did regale us with a few anecdotes of one of the spiritual worlds
favorite apocryphal beings: the Mullah Nasrudin, or known as Goha in
Egypt - i wonder what in Bangladesh, where Jamal comes from?
The Interfaith Church
in the Ballard District of Seattle is a lot of fun and know how to put
on a party. So there was lots of good food and dancing throughout. A
Maypole was still up from Beltane so some of us took the opportunity to
rewrap it.
Speaking of Beltane i know i have been negligent in
getting the photos for that (and many other events too!) out! Partly
that was migrating some new blog tech to the web that i have been using
for the latest edition of my CD (don't forget to ask me for one;). This
should help with that. Let me know how you like the new layout.
Part
also had to do with a hard disk crash i suffered on the biggest day of
the Beltane retreat Saturday May 1st: i have been experimenting with a
magnetic ball head mount for my camera and it appears my microdrive CF
card did not like that one bit! Fortunately after much searching for
software i have managed to recover 95% of it - and i have modified my
design slightly to keep the magnetic field out of the inside of the
camera! i used that modified monopod quick release this time.
BTW, these pics are stored at a new online photoarchive operated as a free service. Highstreet.
As you saw earlier i opened an account with Photobucket to house the
pics i took for the Dances of Universal Peace events. They also work by
donation: please contribute to both! i know it is hard to believe, but
even techies sometimes do not have money, and it helps to give them
some, if you expect to continue to get help and other boons from them!
