"Sad night
last night but today is a brighter day. The ewe (female sheep) on the left
lambed a stillborn and we were unable to resuscitate it. She cried most of the
night longing for her lamb after we removed it.
The ewe on the
right lambed twins last week, though they were very small. It seems that today
she has given one of her twins to the grieving mother to raise as her own. This
is a photo of them together with their new children."

Following are some of the comments we have received. Would you please send us your comments?
July 14. If everyone could grasp that one fact - that the only difference is the amount of melanin in each person's skin! Unfortunately, factors such as hatred, greed, and power play a big part in the racism issue.
-- Vicki Horsfield, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

July 18. Very touching presentation about race.
-- Elly Contreras,
E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
Anthony
Peterson. Anthony Peterson's "What
I am learning from my white grandchildren - truths about race" is one of
the most powerful Ted Talks I have heard. The message is particularly timely.
-- Don Smith, Rotary
Club of Bracebridge, District 7010
The article about
the film clips found in Dawson City brought back some happy memories of our
stay in Dawson City.
-- David Werrett,
E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
Cheryl
Holden. Cheryl Holden has a very
practical understanding of climate change and the effects on people's
health.
-- Larry Reynolds,
Rotary Club of Campbell River, District 5020
The Power of
Rotary. Really enjoyed the musical selection
"Unchained Melody." This was the first popular song I learned to play
on the piano.

Rotary Club of District 6330 Passport

Food for thought
For more information about facial recognition, clickhere.
The second video link above is John Oliver. John Oliver takes a look at facial
recognition technology, how it’s used by private companies and law enforcement,
and why it can be dangerous.
Still, it’s an excellent video and covers the topic well, but may offend a few; hence, the reason I am supplying only the link, noting that John Oliver is a regular on HBO and a master at satirical comedy. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Every week we'll have a draw and the lucky person will see their song featured!
