Robyn on TV
As a freshman athlete, Robyn has been in a couple of TV broadcasts. Using this page to keep track of the links.
First, she played in a basketball tournament in Topeka. They won an upset on Thursday, and this was the loss on Friday to the home team and favorite. “I’m loving it.”
Then the SMSD broadcast the home game between SMS and SMN. We won, and Robyn played a significant part in it.
And this was the pre-season school video they showed at the Pep Rally.

Robyn freshman class art project
The assignment was a 3-D self-portrait of oneself in a scene of something the student did. Robyn picked basketball. It was displayed in the SMS hallway.
I took a series of photographs at different angles, used gimp to remove the background, hugin to align the images, then gimp to produce the final animated gif. No doubt my part could be much improved, but I time-boxed only 2 hours and it took 4. Fun learning for me and I’m proud of her.
Robyn’s Poem Assignment, 7th Grade
Use the information to write the first draft of a ballad.
Title: Obama
Around November 2008
Obama was elected.
All the blacks and all the whites
where majorly affected.
All the Presidents before him
where very pale and white.
But Barack Obama is black
Even in the light.
The first time he ran against
Palin with McCain.
He beat them in 2008
And began his way to fame.
He was President for 4 years,
and number 44.
His term was over in 2012.
But the people wanted more.
Elected again, President now,
and never will be alone.
The first African American President
will always be remembered and known.
Goodbye Sebago!

Happy Fourth of July!
Gilda’s club Kansas City ribbon cutting
Pearl was the emcee and took the kids. The KC star photographer took a picture of them painting and they made the Star magazine in last Sunday’s issue. Winston’s uniform shirt was covered with paint and “ruined”, but he had outgrown it anyway. The Star doesn’t have the picture online, but thanks to my friend, Richard Woodward who got me a pdf of the magazine page. Last picture on the bottom
CYO-KC-Track-2011-04-28
Here is the video I took at the CYO track meet at Bonner Springs on Sat, April 28, 2012.
Summary: Robyn’s knee tightened up during warm ups and was hurting. I told her to pull out of the 1600m if it did not clear up. She ran a good pace (1:28 in lap 1, 1:35 in lap 2; best 2nd lap ever?) but pulled out of the back-stretch during lap 3. Her asthma had kicked in and she could not breathe. It had rained the night before, and the air was thick and the pollen was up. (And the guy at the concession stand was grilling burgers so she ran into smoke on the home stretch.) She had taken her medicine and a pull earlier, but it wasn’t enough. She felt herself going into bad-wheezing mode, so she pulled off. Pearl was standing with Catherine when it happened, who exclaimed: “You can do that?” Mary ran a 6:01, Molly a 6:37, and Grace a 6:38 1600M race
Robyn recovered fine and was dancing around for the rest of the day. I think we need to have her warm up much harder and hurt her lungs before the 1st race so they get used to it. Robyn did the long jump for the first time this year. Was nervous because she’d only had one practice, but she pulled it off and won with a 12-07. Long Jump
Alia won the 100m with a 15.15 100M race
This was the first time Robyn had ever run the 400m. She did not enjoy it, but ran very well. Could probably run the 2nd and 3 legs a bit faster, but she finished great to win in 1:10.64 400M race
The short medley was exciting because Robyn, Alia, and Catherine ran the final leg. Catherine started with perhaps a 5 yd lead over Robyn and a 10 yd lead over Alia. Alia made up huge ground on the turn to get in front of Robyn, then Robyn closed down half the distance to Catherine on the straight, but Catherine held on. Short medley
Final race was the 4x100m relay

6th grade. Robyn in the 1600M. Time: 6:17.95
6th Grade 200m. Nice fist pump, Annie. Time: 33.66
6th grade short medley relay. Alia in the anchor leg.
Robyn in the 800m. Time: 2:58.99
6th grade 4x100m. Robyn in 2nd leg
Summary: Robyn shaved a couple of seconds off her best 1600m time. Mary ran a 6:01 and Robyn tried to stay with her on the 1st lap, but dropped down fast at the start of the 2nd lap. Brave effort, but lack of practice and cannot pace all 4 laps. Need to do more with 2nd and 3rd laps. Her 800m time was off her best and her legs were hurting.
Robyn’s room 2012
Daughter spent the day cleaning and re-arranging her room. The miracle of mess-removal, and once again being able to see the hard wood floors that her Mother and I discovered under crappy carpet and restored. We thought of taking a picture, then I remembered that photosynth is available for her new itouch, so we played with that. Good, but not good enough for Dad, so I spent 2 hrs taking the pictures, and maybe 10 hrs building the panorama with hugin, then the computer did a few hours of cranking as well. This one came out quite nicely. Problems mostly due to the average camera lens.
