Welcome Home, M!

Two travel links from yesterday:


Carnegie Free Library in Eureka, California - hope to create free online libraries - 
in each of all 7097 languages living languages @WorldUnivAndSch and in a realistic virtual earth (@HarbinBook). Think Google Street View with time slider /Maps / Earth




South fork of the Eel River near Phillipsville / Avenue of the Giants' exit (after car camping), - heading north along coast to Reed College & re - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html … ... http://www.scottmacleod.com/HaikuishPoetryBook.html … ...

Hi M,


Online libraries are planned in all 7097 living languages at World Univ & Sch and accessible in a realistic virtual earth such as in Street View eventually and here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Library_Resources - where we'll all be able to add links to other online libraries.  

And via ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - such that WUaS students and Universitians can add articles from their research around the world in most obscure libraries via their smartphones even.

(I added a photo of the Harbin Gate here ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ (and accessible from https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook) - as another example of this. 

I've also seen people add video add to Google Street View, which link I think is in the blog, relating to an UC Berkeley Tourism Studies' Working Group TSWG talk some months ago.

I hope World University and School can grow this in remarkable ways to create wondrous online libraries in all ~200 countries' official languages too, to complement other libraries coming online - and with a student degree focus. 


L, Scott

Hi M,

Welcome home! New poem-ish ...


 Alewives

Fish are in pools
Reed college is a school
Where
Fish are in schools.

These are Alewives in Maine - 
in schools in pools
on the Megunticook River
Thanks, Alison McKellar, for posting this video to Web.

The Alewife T stop in Cambridge, Massachusetts,
a terminus,
is an intermodal transit station on the Red Line subway,
and evocative of not fish, for me, but a northbound train.
Finding alewives in Oregon 
in the river port town of Portland's poetry
is not what I seek, 
yet a friend girlfriend partner wife mom-to-be, 
there, could be - but not an Alewife, 
for they're an Atlantic fish, 
and I seek to spawn.

A poet friend for love? 
A wife who bears the liberation of ale? 
Etymology: mid 17th century:
possibly from earlier alewife ‘woman who keeps an alehouse,’ 
with reference to the fish's large belly.
Alewife migration, whose ...
"...migration are anadromous, in which adult fish live in the sea and migrate into fresh water to spawn," 
And I an ale wife's husband, 
and thus an alewife too?

Fish are in pools
Reed college is a school
Where
Fish are in schools.

...

Camped in my car ...  checking out the new great Toyota Proace camping van - "Toyota launches a cute and cozy camper van Proace" ... https://youtu.be/7FD0QgtAJ7k AND "Introducing the Toyota PROACE LERINA" ... https://youtu.be/sizWkamE9Xk (which may get more than 50 mpg - but which doesn't yet appear available in the US) - as vision for being on road (and even with family).

Heading up to the Oregon coast now

Think some 'floating leaf' in life Haiku~ish poetry may be coming on - re above.

Writing life is interesting. Hair is getting long ... which could be interesting too ...

Greetings from Eureka, CA - where traveling is kinda liberating. Appreciating too the great technologies I have of a 2005 Toyota Prius getting 44 mpg, and the Samsung Android smartphone with Google software on it.  

Glad too to have found a Carnegie Library in Eureka, CA - http://www.carnegie-libraries.org/california/eureka.html ...

Getting out the World University and School news and agenda for monthly business meeting on Saturday on the road - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/06/taygetus.html. 

L,
Scott
