“I Really Believe That If The Political Leaders Of The World Could See Their Planet From A Distance

It's no Paris, or breakfast at the amazing hotel in Amman, but it's still pretty tasty! . . . Was supposed to be en route to Paris but the MLW (UNESCO) conference I was going to present at with members of the IDEL initiative was postponed. I was really looking forward to sharing our work and making connections. Plus getting a chance to revisit and have fun while I'm in town. And be a tourist with friends.... . . . We'll be presenting soon at the AJCU conference in June, and then meeting with Georgetwon right after 😁 . . . #warmbuttercroissant #darkchocolate #honey #fresh #raspberries #oranges #roastedwalnuts #roastedalmonds #extrasharpcheddarcheese #decafecoffee #epictripthesequelonhold #relaxingweekend #travelplans https://www.instagram.com/p/B9J-lFmlwjV/?igshid=b0lteutel5cq

The perfect David Bowie tribute is astronaut Chris Hadfield singing “Space Oddity”

Bowie himself called Hadfield’s cover “possibly the most poignant version of the song ever created” when he shared the video on Facebook. The video features views of Earth from space and is spliced with shots of Hadfield singing and playing the guitar.

Build A Life-Size Phone Controlled BB8 Droid (Full-DIY-Tutorial)

This is amazing... full diy instructions on Instructables

(Also worth checking out, Angelo’s other videos on youtube)

I would say “Shut up and take my money”, but it’s not for sale...   I want my own BB-8 badly and while Angelo did a superb job of breaking down each step of the project I don’t know that I would be able to do-it-myself without help... so...  I’m going to try to organize a group of people who also want to make their own BB-8 droids, that we can work together.  I’m thinking that if we had enough people, we could do it working in pairs in assembly line fashion.  Clearly, this project will be a lot of work, but it looks totally doable...  with help... Stay tuned for updates!  

Update:  It’s on!!  I’m organizing a group of IT people with the robotics team along with other interested staff/faculty/students to build one for Faculty Technology Day at the end of May...  We plan to build during the first week of May....
