Message to Club
Dear Beacon Soccer Club members,
Another fun filled season of soccer is about to kick-off and the BSC Board thought that this would be a great opportunity to provide you with some important information regarding the upcoming season.
Season Length & Game schedules:The spring '16 season will start on Saturday, April 9th and run through Saturday, June 11th. The end of season club wide picnic is scheduled for Saturday, June 18. Players will remain on the same teams that they were assigned to in the fall. You should have heard from your child's coach by now, If not please reach out to them directly or contact your division director (names listed on BSC webpage). We ask that you do not use the fields for practice until further notice. Your support with this is greatly appreciated!
Please note:* Games will be played on Saturday unless otherwise indicated on your teams' schedule
* Date of In-house sponsor tournament will be announced next week
* No games have been scheduled for Saturday, May 28 (Memorial Weekend).
Schedules and other important information including updates on weather related delays and cancellations will be posted on the club website which can be located by attaching the following link into your web browser: www.beaconsoccerclub.com
Uniforms & Equipment:Please ensure that your child brings shin guards with them to every game and practice. No Shin Guards- No Play! It is also recommended that you buy your child a ball which should also be brought with them to every practice session.
Volunteerism:Beacon Soccer Club is 100% volunteer operated. We receive NO financial assistance from Beacon Recreation and the Beacon School district. As a result, we are solely responsible for conducting/ or paying for all tasks required to maintain and grow the club. For example: volunteers are at the field as early as 6.00am on Saturday morning to ensure that the fields lined, restroom facilities are clean and that the concession stand has those delicious (and very reasonably priced) breakfast sandwiches ready to go when you arrive at the field. Many of these volunteers are also the same ones who stay after the last games are played to assist with clean up and close out activities.
Well you ask...How can I help?
Great question! Thanks for asking...
The fact is that BSC is always on the look-out for new volunteers. Opportunities exist or can be created for anyone that has an interest in getting involved and making a positive impact on our club and community. Even if you only have a few minutes available, you can greatly assist by ensuring that water & sports drink bottles are properly placed in one of the many garbage receptacles that are located around the fields.
Please feel free to contact any member of the board in you have an interest in finding out more information on how you can get involved.
Parking:Beacon City School administration continues to voice concerns regarding the parking situation at Sargent School. They have kindly asked that BSC members refrain from parking in the following areas:
* Fire lanes
* Grass around Administration Building
* Parking spots designated for Superintendent of schools.
We think that this is a fair request! Please assist us in maintaining our excellent relationship with the school administration by complying with their request. Additional parking is available in the lower lots which can be accesses through the entrance route 9D entrance into Sargent School.
Thanks again for being a part of the Beacon Soccer Club. We wish you and your "soccer star" a wonderful season and look forward to seeing you at the field!
Warmest regards,
BSC Board of Directors

The oldest and largest gathering of fife and drum participants and enthusiasts in the immediate area is just around the corner.
The Deep River Ancient Muster, which has been referred to as "The Granddaddy of All Musters" and "A Colonial Woodstock," is always the third Saturday in July, which this year is July 19.
The Tattoo, hosted by the Deep River Junior Ancients, will kick off the festivities on Friday, July 18, at 7 p.m. at Devitt's Field.
The Tattoo is a gathering at which members of the various marching corps can get to know each other. The next day, Saturday, is the day of the Ancient Muster itself, which features the actual march of the various corps.
The parade starts at the corner of Main and Kirtland streets and proceeds down Main Street to Devitt's Field.
Traditionally, at the parade, more than 50 fife and drum corps play the old and sacred tunes of our national memory, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," "Yankee Doodle Dandy," "America the Beautiful," and "It's a Grand Old Flag."
In keeping with the music are patriotically dressed marchers, wearing the military uniforms of wars gone by: three-corner hats, Union blue uniforms of the Civil War, and uniforms of the Revolutionary War as well.
The host corps for the muster are the Deep River Ancient Muster Committee and the Deep River Drum Corps.
The muster will start at Devitt's Field, immediately following the parade.
All roads in town will be closed one half-hour before the parade, at 10:30 a.m. There will be parking in several locations along Main Street, Deep River Congregational Church, The Stone House, Deep River Hardware, the Deep River Public Library, and Route 80.
The annual musters were first started in Deep River back in 1953. Deep River's population of around 5,000 swells by another 5,000 during the muster, taking into account the marchers and the rows of spectators along the sidelines.

Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino described Sunday's 3-0 defeat Liverpool as "unfair" but conceded his side lacked a cutting edge.
Luis Suarez's opener ensured Pochettino's men went in a goal behind at the break at St Mary's Stadium despite creating a host of opportunities.
Suarez then laid on the second for substitute Raheem Sterling shortly before the hour and was fouled for a late penalty, which was duly converted by Steven Gerrard in the game's closing stages.
Pochettino lamented Southampton's inability to take their chances but insisted the result was unfair on his side.
"We created a lot of chances in the first half and we deserved a lot more from the half. It should have been a different result but we just have to be a lot more clinical in the first half to get a different result," he said.
"We were unlucky to score in the first half and then Sterling came on, (scores with) his first touch and it's 2-0.
"I thought overall with the team's performance it was an unfair result but Liverpool were a lot more clinical than we were."
Pochettino was undecided on whether Adam Lallana was deserving of a penalty after going to ground under the challenge of Jon Flanagan in the first half.
He also suggested a lack of luck hindered Southampton as they lost a third-straight game in all competitions.
On the penalty, he explained: "It could be. From my place on the pitch it was quite difficult to see. It could be a penalty.
"We were unlucky in many respects as we were unlucky in the last game (against West Ham).
"When you're not clinical against teams like Liverpool, it's always going to be difficult to get something positive out of the game."

The-Monk, some thirty years ago I was a delivery driver for an auto parts store. One day I found myself stopped at a stoplight behind a low-boy hauling a back-hoe. When the light turned green that low-boy jerked forward and the back-hoe jumped up and off coming right for my little life. I jogged to the right and hit the gas. Good thing there weren't any pedestrians on the sidewalk! The back-hoe landed so close to me I had to climb out the passenger side door. Ever since then I keep at least two car lengths away from a vehicle hauling a heavy load like that. I didn't have to change my shorts after that incident, but it was pretty close!

It seems to me that this committee just gave Mrs. Clinton a pass on Benghazi. It was the same with the SCOTUS ruling that overturned the corruption conviction of former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell. Which appears that it will make it harder to prosecute elected officials accused of bribery. Another win for Mrs. Clinton?

Abe, I agree. Although I think Mr. Trumps likability is because he isn't PC. I do not think that gives him a pass when slinging mud that shouldn't be slung. It's like when those against him slung mud at his wife and children. I think a spouse and children (unless they are/were politicians) should be verboten to any mud slinging. That goes for the MSM as well (I'm including FoxNews). But as I posted earlier; "Mr. Trump my have his shady side, but Mrs. Clinton is evil through and through. We know what we'll get with her as POTUS, but with Mr. Trump we at least have a 50/50 chance".

Since Mr. Cruz is no longer in the running, we have Mr. Trump and whomever he decides to be his running mate. I will vote for Mr. Trump simply because I cannot, with a clear conscience, vote for Mrs. Clinton, not vote or vote for a third party candidate.

His Grace, His Excellency, Blackboard monitor, The Duke of Ankh; Commander Sir Samuel "Sam" Vimes.
Vimes is not impressed
I love The Discworld! Especially the Watch books and anything set in Ankh-Morpork. Like the Moist books and The truth and one of the Wee Free Men books and some of the Wizard books and and and… I love the entire Discworld
Also I am (like the rest of the world) enamoured with the TV series: Games of Thrones.
It has some Kick Ass characters!! Tyrion! Basically the entire Female Cast! LOVE LOVE LOOOVE
I have not read Song of fire and Ice, incase someone was wondering
Both these worlds have Sams, Night watches aaaaand Charles Dance in their TV adaptations!
I was waiting for someone to make this joke, I got tired of waiting
Everyone ad their aunt names someone in their fiction "Sam" or "Sam" for short. Seriously think about it, you'll get a staggering number
I even include a GoT allusion in my (so bloody awful it's never going to see the light of day) DW fanfic: a fish-out-of-water OC has just made a big, un-Sue-ish mistake, and the rest of the Watch takes turns stabbing her and saying "For the Watch" and then leave her to bleed out...though "fortunately for her, and unfortunately for the reader who does not like original characters in fan fiction, this was but a hallucination"
Sigh, the Night's Watch and City Watch crossover possibilities are endless
There are many fun ideas one could use yeah ^^
I know right too many possibilities for crossover/allusion than my tired stupid brain can think of right now
I pledge my life and honour to the City Watch, for this shift and all shifts to come?
That's all my two brain cells could think of at the moment, but someone could do a really funny parody of the Night's Watch oath as a City Watch oath
I personally wouldn't be a good person to consult with that cossover. I know to little about Song of ice and fire.
Maybe use the key exchange thing form Unseen academicals?
I included several allusions to ASOAIF in my DW fanfic, but no crossover (however implied crossover with Doctor Who, the Cthulhu Mythos, and Neil Gaiman's work, that's another story...) though I'm up to date on Game of Thrones and I read the first book
That's a possibility, though I haven't read UA yet (sigh, the dilemma of being compelled to gulp a series down whole while wanting to savor them...)
I know lots of people really like Jon Snow - I did too at the start - but at some point he transformed into a whingy annoying person who always has his mouth open... This probably offends a whole legion of fans
But yes, Vimes is just awesome and I do love Charley Dance both as Vetinari and as Tywin Lannister
And Thwin amd Vetinari could play a nice game of cyvasse/thud and talk about politics until they try to kill eachother.
Vetinari would win. He has never had a undashing incident with his son and a toilet.
Imagine how different the first book would have been if Vimes had been in charge of the City Watch instead of Janos Slynt...
Everybody:Get that cat of my throne1Your throne? (start arguing).
Greebourrs and kills dragons with one claw.
Everybody:When I think better,who needs to be king (Queen!yes,that too.)?All that work and numbers,all hail king Greebo fast!!!
I mean,he is just scared of You (granny Weatherwax's cat,so makes sense) and Nac Mac Feegle (who can kill troll and got kicked out of Elfland because they were too violent,even if they claim that was because they fought against Queen's evil wishes,but only when they are somber enough to remember that story,which is rare).I don't count Legba,as Greebo just retreated when confronted by god Miss Gogol created,then in human form had vegneance.Given Nanny's statement in that book that he is fiend (secret among witches,just as afore-mentioned witch mentioned to her as secret that Legba is ordinary cock) and she normally dfeends him,we should take statement literally.nanny does have knack for demons.
No hot chick, just bros
And old crusty guys
-Payphone Parody (Game of Thrones)
It's not a bad thing but you don't have your facts straight.
Song of ice and fire would not have sold as well as it did had not Lord of the rings been made in to films and taken the world by storm.
Before Lord of the rings fantasy wasn't a genre to be taken seriously. people used whool and nittedd and then sprayed it with silver paint wen they were to film chainamail.
Game of thrones wouldn't be if not LotR paved way and can't be named the force behind fantasy's mainstreem acceptance.
I can give them thr rivival after Eragon killed it for the genre on the screen. but I can't give it more than that.
And you ask your fellow fantasy loving firends and a lot of them will know of Discworld. it's a huge fenominon but it's a bit of an acuierd taste and doesn't tickle everyones fansy, too much satire and dry humour i guess. I really enjy and adore Game of thrones, I do. it's a great show.
I can only imadgen what Ledgend of the seeker feelt when they saw what people could do.

An ice-covered warehouse caught fire in Chicago on January 23. Fire department officials said it was the biggest fire the department had had to battle in years and one-third of all Chicago firefighters were on the scene at one point or another trying to put out the flames. An Arctic blast continues to grip the U.S. Midwest and Northeast, with at least three deaths linked to the frigid weather, and fierce winds made some locations feel as cold as minus 46 degrees Celsius.

Nice to see everyone. Trip sounds awesome! I'm trying to figure out how I can get to RMNP from Santa Fe, NM. I can get a flight into Denver at 4:25 pm on Saturday. Wondering if that would coordinate with anyone else's travel plans and rent a car or something together? Then drive back with the group.

Just FYI. You can camp at Boulder Field and make it a two day trip. But it's literally a "boulder field. Water can be found under the huge boulders and rocks. You need to be off of Longs Peak no later than 12 noon because of summer thunder storms. Don't underestimate the weather. It can hail up there in July and Aug.

For a company that made its name creating top-notch soft
synths, Arturia's relatively recent plunge into analog waters is quickly
becoming a deep-sea dive. Case in point, their new BeatStep control
surface. On the surface, the BeatStep looks like a slimline drum pad
controller that bears a passing resemblance to the Korg NanoPad, but
swim a little further and you'll discover that it's also a fantastic
addition to a modern analog rig, thanks to its gate and CV outputs.
The BeatStep's small form factor and sturdy construction makes it
a shoo-in for laptop performers. With space at a premium in a typical
gig bag, the BeatStep's combination of price and functionality (topped
off with tons of multi-colored LEDs) will be fairly irresistible for DJs
of all shapes and sizes.
As a pad controller, BeatStep's MIDI features are
remarkably robust, thanks in a large part to its companion software that
delivers a high degree of customization in a clean, intuitive
interface. In addition to the expected MIDI controller mapping options,
users can easily edit performance details like whether the knobs respond
in absolute or relative modes, how quickly they respond to fast or slow
knob twists (think of it as rotational velocity), and the velocity
response of the pads (including exponential, linear, logarithmic and
maximum velocity). Each of these configurations can be saved as a
preset. This is a lovely touch, as bangin' tracks often result in overly
enthusiastic playing, while chill tracks tend to require a bit less
performance bombast.
Between these controller features and the overall
construction, the BeatStep is already a solid value, but Arturia also
included a remarkably capable step sequencer that works for both MIDI
and analog CV/gate applications. As a producer with a fair amount of
analog gear, this really got my juices flowing.
You can edit the sequences either directly from the knobs
or via the software editor, so live performance tweaks are part and
parcel of the BeatStep experience. What's more, you can save specific
key and scale information as part of any of its 16 presets, so flubbed
notes are only an option if you're feeling bold.
The sequencer's clock is strictly USB, so you can't sync
the BeatStep from other analog gear, but for 99 percent of users this
won't be a problem. On the other hand, the swing parameter can only be
edited from the software, which is a bit of a drag after becoming
addicted to the Roland Aira TR-8's continuously variable swing in a
performance context.
While the step sequencer can be used traditionally for
musical material, in conjunction with synths like Arturia's own
MiniBrute and MicroBrute or my trusty Roland SH-101, I had even more fun
using it to modulate parameters on my Tom Oberheim and Doepfer analog
gear. Being able to sync the tempo to my DAW via USB, then use the CV
out to modulate the filters in my rig while tweaking the sequences in
real time felt a lot like magic in the context of a studio session.
Things got even more interesting when I applied the BeatStep's nifty
pattern direction functions, which include forward, backward,
back-and-forth, and random.
All in all, the BeatStep Is another awesome product from Arturia—a company that's clearly on
a roll when it comes to delivering what the modern market wants, at a
price that real musicians can actually afford. That's why we're awarding
it a Key Buy.
PROS: Sixteen pads with customizable velocity curves plus 16
endless knobs. CV and Gate outputs. Software editor offers extensive
customization and sequence editing.
CONS: Sequencer clock is strictly USB. Non-realtime swing parameter can only be edited via software.
Bottom Line: Affordable Swiss Army Knife sequencer and controller for both analog and digital rigs.

Wounds can be healed
Some leave a scar
Some leave us walking
with a bit of a limp
We can spend years
trying to walk as if
we'd never been hit
Learning to pass as someone
who has never felt the blade
never been burned by the fire
Trying to fade every scar
Or we can accept what is
and move to the music as we are-
a little lopsided
tilting into the wind
coming to a sudden stillness
when a voice or a movement
ignites an old neural pathway
with the remembered scent
of blood and burning
We pause for just a moment
not breathing
Then exhale
and inhale
and move to the the melody once more
Some wounds
even after they're healed
leave us walking with a bit of a limp
But they cannot stop us from dancing

Time Off-line
Blessed Full Moon and Solstice dear friends. Longest time of light here in the northern hemisphere, and longest night down-under. My heart, body and dreams are telling me to take a break from online life, including Facebook and this blog. I am off this week to a lakeside cottage - and then hope to get further up north to the wilderness I love a little later. Mostly I need to unplug, to step out of the stream of constant information, to go (internally and externally) quiet. And so, I will heed this call on this day of the fullness of the Summer Solstice light. I don't know what it will bring. I do know I will miss many of you. Following inner promptings- Oriah

I've been thinking a lot about kindness, about how it is often not my first (or second, or third. . . ) impulse. At some point I realized just how daunting and life-changing it could be to make my moment by moment intention, kindness toward myself, others- family, friends, strangers- and the world.
Kindness, in any specific instance, leaves no one and nothing out. Sometimes kindness requires that we walk away. Sometimes it asks us to dive in. Most often I find it asks me to pause, to slow down, to feel my way into the moment asking, what would kindness look like here?
In a world shouting that you must live your BIGGEST, BEST life, kindness can seem too tame, too quiet, too ordinary. But I begin to suspect that making room for kindness. . . .could take us beyond where we thought we could go, would unleash the breath-takingly wild and generous stuff of which we are made.

The Little Things
So here's how the day started: I opened the fridge door to take out a one liter pitcher of homemade iced tea and. . . . dropped it. In the fridge. From the top shelf. Small picturesque waterfalls of brown liquid trickled down onto all the food below. I'd planned to take some tea back to bed and start writing there, in a leisurely way. Which is exactly what I did, leaving the fridge as it was. An hour later I went into the kitchen to embrace the opportunity to clean my refrigerator. (Ha!) As I opened the door and felt the cold tea dribbling onto the floor soak into my socks (happily black, not white) I flipped on a cd by Mary Chapin-Carpenter. She sang, "Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug. . " And I started to laugh. Of course, there are many things that are much more serious than kitchen spills. I recently spent time with people who were reeling (and still are) from the sudden and completely unanticipated death of a woman who was wife, mother, sister, friend, colleague and inspiration to many. One of the enormous privileges of living where I do, is that very few days are about life and death. A few are, and- as we would say in the shamanic teachings I've learned and shared- when death comes we have a chance to make it an ally. It is the reminder of impermanence. It is that which puts spilled tea and wet socks and most other things into perspective. My fridge and kitchen floor are cleaner than they've been in months. The sun is shining, and the children in the park next to my balcony are squealing and laughing as they run around as children do. Life is good. I am grateful. ~Oriah "Mountain Dreamer " House I love this photo- makes me smile. Like this little guy we are small and beautiful, and although sometimes solitary, always connected.Thank you Karen Davis at .Open Door Dreaming.

Try a Little Tenderness
Sometimes, preparing a meal when I am tired and cranky and want to argue with the assertion that popcorn is not an entrée, I catch myself grumbling, and I stop for a minute. I sit down in a chair and take a deep breath. I feel my weariness and I lay my hand on my heart, and wait for a little tenderness to arise.
And then, moving more slowly now, I prepare the meal, noticing the crispness of the red peppers, the scent of the cilantro, the creamy smoothness of the avocado. And, on a good day, if I can let go of rushing, I can allow my desire to nourish myself or others infuse and guide my preparation of the meal.
And I swear you can taste the difference.
Because intent- HOW we do something- shapes and to a large extent determines the impact of our actions. Actions taken solely out of obligation lose the fullness of their ability to touch the other or the self with that which is healing, expanding and renewing. Tenderness becomes elusive, and the effort is exhausting.
This holds for self-care as well as care of others. I have a long list of things that I know are good for me: eating well, going for a walk, doing my morning practice. . . .But if I do them out of obligation (to some ideal or "should") and without any real tenderness toward myself, I find I am going through the motions somewhat mechanically and the impact- the restoration of balance and energy- is diminished.
And yet, I don't want to make this quality of caring another "should." Some days, all we can do is go through the motions- and sometimes that's enough to make us available to the grace of a larger Mystery that carries us beyond obligation to our true and compassionate nature.
I am learning to catch myself when I move too fast, when I am driven by real or imagined obligations. I am learning, as the song says, to try a little tenderness with myself and others.
~Oriah "Mountain Dreamer" House
In keeping with this theme, as I look at this photo from Karen Davis at Open Door Dreaming, I think of Stephen Mitchell's translation of Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching: "Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water. Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it."

Impossible Decisions
Last weekend was the first real summery weather we've had. It was sunny and warm, lilacs exploding with scent, and blossoming trees heavy with flowers. And then, someone I know- a close friend of a heart-sister- had a massive stroke. In the blink of an eye, life as she knew it- filled with loving family and friends, an exciting new business and seemingly boundless energy- changed. She is on life support. There is brain damage. Doctors are waiting to see what happens next. There will probably be some hard decisions for her family to make. A couple of weeks ago I sat with another woman I admire deeply. Some routine medical tests revealed that she has a brain aneurysm. Doctors want to operate. If they don't and the aneurysm bursts, she will likely die. But surgery will impact the brain in unpredictable ways. And I think to myself, "We don't have what we need to make these kinds of decisions!" And yet, there is no one else to make them. The truth is, we can never know all the variables that deeply effect our lives and the lives of those we love. Part of me would like to have a chat Whomever-Is-In-Charge, would like to lodge a complaint: We are not equipped for this kind of responsibility! There is so much we don't control and cannot know. There are real limits to life as a physical being: blood damages the brain. And yet, sometimes people recover when doctors thought it was impossible, and ongoing research is expanding our knowledge of many areas including neuroplasticity. Our impulse to hold on to life and each other is rooted in our very being. And yet, I think of my father before he died of Alzheimer's. Over and over, in rare moments of lucidity and in the fog of his confusion he begged me to help him die, to help him escape the daily hell that Alzheimer's was for him. The best I could do for him was to ensure he did not get medical treatments that would prolong his life. How are we supposed to make these decisions that so profoundly impact our lives, when we don't have all the information, don't know what is truly possible or impossible. . . . when we would give our lives to help someone we love? But that is not what is asked of us. What is asked is something much harder. What is asked is that we do what we can with what we have to work with- incomplete information, few certainties, limited perception and aching hearts. Some of us have spiritual practices that help us feel held by something larger. Some of us do not.
We do the best we can with what we have.
Often we stumble in confusion and anguish. Sometimes we are alone with our choices. Hopefully, more often we are held in the arms, hearts and prayers of others. I am in awe of how we do what has to be done, how we make impossible choices, how we hold each other in tenderness.
Last weekend- as is true every day on this beautiful planet we share- some people struggled with life and death decisions; some people had the life they knew changed forever; some people faced unexpected heartbreak and hard choices.
And still the lilacs explode with scent, and blossoming trees are heavy with flowers.

Another Day
Over time, if we're paying attention, if we are given enough days on this beautiful earth. . . . many of the certainties we were taught, much of what we were so sure of when we were young. . . falls away.
I'll admit it- some days I miss the certainty. I don't miss the beliefs or ways of seeing that separated me from what was true and sometimes hard within and around me, but some days I feel a little nostalgic for that wonderful confident sense of standing on solid ground, however delusional that might have been.
Or maybe I'm just missing being young enough that my energy feels so infinite I take it for granted.
It can be tempting to stop taking chances when we realize how small and brief and biodegradable we are, when we see how little we control, when we experience how loss and searing pain can bring us to our knees.
But it's a package deal- this life we are given. No risk, no loss, no sorrow means not being able to feel joy, to love and be loved. And the risks are real. We will fall, and some things (hearts, bones, promises, plans, relationships. . . .) will be broken. And there may be times when we will feel as if even that which seemed unbreakable- spirit, soul, love- has been shattered.
Perhaps nothing of what we think we are is unbreakable.
And yet. . . . everyday life calls to me, saying, "Live!"
The taste of a sun-ripened peach, laughing with my sons as I careen awkwardly around wearing a Virtual Reality headset (a truly comical scene,) the hand that reaches out as we help another or are helped ourselves to get up again and again. . . . these things are as true as any certainty I've ever had.
Every morning, my grandfather said with a tone of resigned anticipation, "Another day, another dollar."
I used to live as if my inner morning salutation was, "Another day, another chance to get it right"- a set-up if ever there was one.
Now, when I open my eyes in morning, I think, "Another day. . . ." and on a good morning, on a morning when I can let the sound of the wind through the leaves of the tree beside my window find me, when I can feel the slight pause at the end of my exhale, before the next inhale breathes me into being, I whisper into the pre-dawn light, "Thank you."
~Oriah "Mountain Dreamer" House (c) 2016

How to Use Augmented Reality for Technology Based Learning
Origin Learning
It works to make the real virtual, and uses virtual to simulate reality. That being said for the humor, let's explore how augmented reality can be used for technology based learning, such as e-learning and m-learning. For other organizations, where virtual reality is not that big a necessity, augmented reality does the trick. Technology acts funny at times.
Augmented Reality – Making Paper Interactive
Upside Learning
One of the ways we recommend is to use elements of Augmented Reality. Over the course of the last few years, we've experimented quite often with augmented reality (AR) technology, either in the form of AR apps for mobile phones, or leveraging AR browsers, etc. Leverage augmented reality, there are many worthwhile applications. more about this later).
An Augmented Reality Future
Upside Learning
The use of augmented reality as an interface has mostly been gimmicky. Perhaps the only other AR based apps that have made equal sense are the augmented reality browsers. Augmented reality will eventually allow a unique way to control our increasingly digital world, how will 'Workplace Learning' take advantage of this?
Tools for Developing Augmented Reality Applications
Upside Learning
We have been experimenting with development of Augmented Reality [AR] applications for some time now. Marker based/Image recognition – using a camera these applications recognize a marker or an image in the real world, calculate its position & orientation to augment the reality. The AR applications can be divided into two categories –. ARToolKit. 2. SLARToolkit. 4.

The paradox of augmented reality
E-Learning Provocateur
Scott is the Co-founder & CMO of Explore Engage , a digital media company that is attracting serious attention for its augmented reality eyewear. caught up with Scott in the harbour city and asked him the following questions… What are your favourite examples of augmented reality? (0:08). Is augmented reality worth the hype? (3:54).
Augmented Reality and M-Learning
eLearning 24-7
Interactivity meets reality. Augmented Reality and it is happening as we speak. Augmented Reality – what is it? AR Reality. Acrossair app displays all the tweets around you in 360 degrees of Augmented Reality view, with the distances and photos of the people tweeting around you. 4. You walk past the buildings, see the crowds and yawn.
Google's Glass Project – Wearable Augmented Reality Glasses
Upside Learning
The video shows an augmented reality concept that is integrated with Google's services, with voice commands, video chat, location check-ins, maps (outside and in-store), weather, etc. I'm looking forward to the day when you and I will have access to such technologies. Innovation augmented reality Augmented Reality Glasses Google's Glass Project Project Glass
Will augmented reality revolutionize training?
Wearable computers are the means and augmented reality is the interface between what we know to be the real world and the so called virtual world. Augmented reality (AR) although still in its infancy if we consider its spread, promises to set high standards of connectivity for the not so distant future. From open-cord surgery performed by anyone, to simulating the conditions of Mars, or studying a bigger part of the cosmos, augmented reality seems to be a basic step in achieving all these far-fetched ideas. Is AR just the latest fad? Permalink

So I was excited to stumble upon their Augmented Reality browsing of Powerhouse Museum around Sydney app for Apple and Android. love history, I love augmented reality, and I own an iPhone – so a combination of all three proved irresistible.

Why is Augmented Reality not Mainstream in Learning?
Vikas Joshi on Interactive Learning
Augmented reality technology has been around for over a decade now, and there is a lot of talk about its promise and applications. In this post, we would like to survey our readers to discover why augmented reality is not a mainstream technology in learning. AR augmented reality technology We offer four reasons we have heard around the industry. Please feel free comment and let us know where you are on this issue. A. There is not enough awareness about where AR can really help B. It is expensive to build AR applications C.

E-Learning Provocateur
My favourite example of augmented reality is now a couple of years old: While it might not be as flash as the xkcd enthusiasts might demand from this emerging technology, it remains practical and – gasp!

Augmented reality is the natural next step off technological mobile applications. Augmented reality gives you just that bit more information when and where you need it.
