Simple meditation helps students concentrate: researcher
Janet Steffenhagen, Vancouver Sun: One of my fondest memories from a recent visit to Seymour elementary in Vancouver was joining the students in Carrie Gelson’s Grade 2 class in morning meditation.

Ocklawaha, Piney Island Landing, Eaton Creek
This was the first time I'd paddled this section of the Ocklawaha during the draw-down and you can certainly see the difference in the water level. My guess would be the level was at least three feet lower than 'normal' meaning the current was faster than 'normal' as well and the river banks exposed. Paddling against the current was a workout and taking photos even more of a challenge.There were Alligators, Raccoons, Robins, beautiful red Cardinals, lots of song birds, noisy Hawks, Great Blue Herons, Little Blues, and I saw what I thought was an immature eagle. We could hear Sandhill Cranes, but didn't see any until the ride home. They were on the side of the road. Odd that I've seen more Cranes roadside than while out kayaking - what's with that? And while I didn't capture all of the above with my camera, I did manage to get a few out of the ordinary.... Turkeys!More photos are posted on Meetup.com
