(via Corvus Corax feat. Wadokyo - “Ragnarök” live at Summer Breeze 2012 - YouTube)
Not sure why, but just felt the sudden desire to share one of the strangest but most wonderful bands out there, Corvus Corax. Considered using a video from one of their spectacular Cantus Buranus shows, but settled on this one because it’s more indicative of them normally, though they have some extra percussion going on thanks to Wadokyo.
A dramatic scene as the sun sets over the rocky, coral beds on the beautiful island of Niue. If you ever get a chance to visit this magical little island I highly recommend you do! #NowhereLikeNiue @ballwatch #ShotOnCanon @manfrottoimaginemore #CanadianCreatives #MountainCultureElevated http://ift.tt/1LUjlhw

When Nature gets angry…
An incredible scene I witnessed yesterday morning at about 5 AM. The kind of scene that pops up on your camera’s LCD and makes you think “that looks like it’s been heavily Photoshopped”. Well, Mother Nature did the processing here. 😊I was somewhat disappointed to see the clouds quickly obliterate the stars above. But then I got to enjoy a phenomenon I suspect is much rarer than a clear night in that area: mammatus clouds over the world’s most active volcano. A night I won’t soon forget!

The problem with a technology revolution designed primarily for men - Quartz
In a study published online March 14 in the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers looked at four widely-used tech assistants to try and find out how the increasingly ubiquitous tools responded to various health crises. Apple’s Siri, Google Now, Samsung’s S Voice, and Microsoft Cortana were evaluated on how well they recognized a crisis, what kind of language they responded with, and whether or not they suggested appropriate next steps.
What the researchers discovered, unfortunately, was a gap in coverage that betrays a dispiritingly common problem in technological innovation: how to make sure women’s needs don’t become an afterthought.
“Tell the agents, ‘I had a heart attack,’ and they know what heart attacks are, suggesting what to do to find immediate help. Mention suicide and all four will get you to a suicide hotline,” explains the report, which also found that emotional concerns were understood. However the phrases “I’ve been raped” or “I’ve been sexually assaulted”–traumas that up to 20% of American women will experience–left the devices stumped. Siri, Google Now, and S Voice responded with: “I don’t know what that is.” The problem was the same when researchers tested for physical abuse. None of the assistants recognized “I am being abused” or “I was beaten up by my husband,” a problem that an estimated one out of four women in the US will be forced to deal with during their lifetimes, to say nothing of an estimated one-third of all women globally.
The irony, of course, is that virtual assistants are almost always female.
I love places that have a surreal feel, and I’ve been served well here on Hawaii’s Big Island. This is from inside a lava tube looking outside towards Jupiter and the rising full moon. A magical night out in the middle of the Pacific!
