I am biking to Africa to raise awareness for Heal the World, Inc.’s latest project: the Open University of West Africa (OUWA). We are looking for students to mentor our students, professors to curate OER’s into courses, and those who can give, to do so.Tumblr (3.0; @biketoafrica)http://biketoafrica.org/<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/33575965?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="400" height="290" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/>http://biketoafrica.org/post/19408999221http://biketoafrica.org/post/19408999221Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:57:17 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxuzkqWIHo1r6w28yo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Bike to Africa…phase 1 = done!…</p>http://biketoafrica.org/post/15905216864http://biketoafrica.org/post/15905216864Sun, 15 Jan 2012 14:26:50 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxteemn5Qq1r6w28yo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>My amazing DZR shoes!

It was a rainy day, but not too cold, so I didn’t mind too much. It was very atmospheric; rain in the desert. The more I thought about it, I realized some of the most beautiful places I have been are borderlands. I tried to come up with examples and counter-examples. I had more examples of than the contrary, and tried to figure out why. Then it dawned on me, it is because they are the most beautiful places, and thus they are contested space. It made me sad, how we fight to partition what is good. What if we shared it? Tragedy of the commons, or TED-esque revolution? The latter for me.</p>http://biketoafrica.org/post/14907146039http://biketoafrica.org/post/14907146039Tue, 27 Dec 2011 23:48:43 -0700
