Tech Tip: Embed Tweet

For this week's Tech Tip, I chose to embed a tweet and Wow, I am so impressed! This is so cool. I chose this tweet posted by OU Daily and also re-tweeted by Professor Laura Gibbs because I thought it was very powerful and an impressive display on the part of OU's students.

Epics of India Reading Plan

During Week 9 I would like to finally watch Nina Paley's "Sita Sings the Blues." I am also very interested in watching the film series "Seven Secrets of Hindu Calendar Art - Gods and Goddesses."

During Week 10 I want to read the Buddhist Jataka Tales. I have always been interested in Buddhist ideas and feel that they really resonate with me. I also think that they could be beneficial to my storybook theme of karma, as this is a core belief in Buddhism.

I am also open to reading suggestions, specifically those that may help me write my Storybook (that have to do with turtles, sea-life, and/or karma).
