Rosalie Victoria (born May 28) is doing great, rolling over and pushing up like a champ, and seems to be on the verge of crawling every day. We were in Vermont the third week of August, for a massive and very happy family wedding joining Micah Richards and Naomi Keepin (my brother-in-law, Isaiah's, middle sister). In Oregon at the beginning of September we enjoyed family time and horseback riding to kick off our birthday month. The International Aiki Peace Week brought into existence by Aiki Extensions to reinforce and multiply the UN Peace Day was very successful this year from September 17-24, and Jamie Zimron Sensei joined me to teach special classes at Aikido of Berkeley. Aikido developments are coming along nicely as Free Aiki Dojo and Golden Bears Aikido at UC Berkeley continue to grow, and I will return to teaching aikido and Martial Nonviolence again at The Renaissance School beginning in October.
