Hi M,
Putting a very beautiful Mother's Day gift in the mail for you, M, and which I got last year at Reed in June, made by a former Reed librarian (Gay Walker), which I had forgotten about actually, ... and which I just found ... . (Had thought last year to send this to you for your birthday this year ... Mother's Day isn't such a bad alternative here :)
May be good too to head up to Reunions Reed College - https://reunions.reed.edu/marketplace.html - for Sat. June 8, 2019 after all - for both outreach to Reedies re World University and School, and best STEM CC-4 OCW-centric online free-to-students' Ph.D. degrees - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Ph.D._Degrees_at_World_University_and_School - as well as the 3 books in the WUaS Press ~ http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html ...
and then to head to Wisdom Creek Ranch too afterward to see Annie and all ... if I have a functioning car ...
Have a great week, M ...
L, Scott
Sincerely, Scott

Hi M,I come back to the Desiderata - http://mwkworks.com/desiderata.html - that there is much trickery in the world. And, to Yoga too - http://www.scottmacleod.com/yoganotations.html - and reason.
What does the Desiderata say?
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
for the world is full of trickery.

How's your week going? How are you?
With you just having read Michelle Obama's book - are the Obamas in Hawaii these days? - this whole thing feels a little bit like a case study out of Harvard Law Professor's Charles Nesson's evidence course too ... in terms of lessons learning ...
Was glad to hear back in email from Linda Meacci (who teaches Yoga) in Pittsburgh yesterday who's open to collaborating Yoga-wise although her plate is fairly full, she writes. Could be interesting to teach 2 classes of Yoga per week in Pittsburgh 5-10 years from now, if I were to move back with a young family. And possibly to explore co-teaching a class re Angela & Victor's approach to co-teaching. (It's interesting to me to see where the BKS Iyengar's legacy with the Yoga school he started in 1975 in Pune, India has gone, - in Google Street View - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ramamani+Iyengar+Memorial+Yoga+Institute/@18.533582,73.838649,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x256821ed070d8e28!8m2!3d18.533582!4d73.838649 - and where his daughter Geeta and his son now are its heads, I think - "Its directors are Yogacharya B.K.S. Iyengar, Geeta S. Iyengar and Prashant S. Iyengar. BKS Iyengar seems to have created a financially successful school as well, and careers for Iyengar teachers - https://iynaus.org/study/teachers - and schools too, all around the world as well; I was able to find Janet MacLeod, Julie Lawrence, and Julie Gudmestad, but not Manouso Manos, in this directory just now, for example). Angela and Victor continue to teach around the world and in their Yoga center in Eftalou on Lesvos in Greece, and ask interesting questions - http://www.angela-victor.com/content/who-are-we-anyway - as well :)
In doing Yoga asana this morning, after sitting in meditation, I was glad to be able to twist in half lotus and with my right hand around behind take my right foot; the injury to my right 'pinion' (front right shoulder) has gotten better, since I wasn't able to do this for a number of years. Things improve, and the bodymind heals with time. (Left hip sciatica and left leg/foot - the longer one - are still noticeable sometimes, but these will likely improve too; no Scottish Country Dancing however due to sciatica tweak many months ago still though). Right eye after dental procedure is still with ever so slightly marred vision, but seems to be holding its own as well. When I took that Yoga course with Angela Farmer in Berkeley in October of 2017 - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/10/vulcanoid-rock-star-yoga-teacher-angela.html - her various bodily maladies have been moving around as well (a hip issue no longer an issue, but a knee issue is newly). Am grateful for the gift of Yoga in my life, and would introduce Yoga to my kids as well.
What are you up to this weekend, M?
L, Scott
