Walk of Causes - Lebanon - Episode 5
When you travel by foot, you often have to trust the people you meet. Lebanon is no exception. This is usually part of the beauty when you travel like this, but sometimes it can go wrong... In the previous episode of Walk of Causes, we almost got our money and credit card stolen. But we were lucky this time. We got our stuff back, and ended our uncomfortable situation with a handshake.
In this episode of Walk of Causes, we get lost in the mountains again, and meet a man that we have no choice but to trust.
Today it's estimated to be around 30-40 million nomads left in the world. In Lebanon there are between 100-150.000 Bedouins. Most of these live in the Bekaa valley, and earn their living from helping the farmers with the crop. Since they usually don't have any papers, they also fall out of the health care system. This episode of Walk of Causes is dedicated to them, and is supported by Neo Galleri in Stavanger, Norway. Half of the money she donated went to finish the production of this web series. The other half goes to The Bedouin Health Project that works to improve reproductive and child health care in Lebanon's Bedouin community.

Glitchy KONE EcoSpace Traction Elevators - 300 Santana Row, San Jose, CA
When I rode these elevators before they were really nice, but unfortunately I can not say the same this time around. The elevator on the right went up to 5 no problem, but then refused to move again. I hit multiple floor buttons, it would close, the brake would clunk a few times, but it wouldn't move. Luckily hitting door open worked. At the suggestion of an employee here we got out, and strangely once it closed the call button did let us call the other elevator. I have no idea what could have caused this problem, though my guess would be some kind of controller issue.
It was a very hot day, so it is possible that had something to do with this elevator's behavior. It was hotter than it usually gets in the Bay Area, so whatever cooling system exists for the motors and controllers may have been overwhelmed. This is just speculation though, I have no idea if this is right in the flightest.

COPE2-(COPE2 South Bronx, New York) is a graffiti artist from the South Bronx. Though he is known worldwide, he did not receive a lot attention in the graffiti world until the 1990s. He has been painting since 1981, and has gained international credit for his work. He and his crew Kings Destroy (formerly Kids Destroy, or simply KD) are the main focus of the influential graffiti movie Kings Destroy. Cope2 has been one of the main targets of the New York City Vandal Squad and has been arrested for vandalism, theft and drug charges. The arrest followed his recent success in releasing a 272 page book of his work titled Cope 2: True Legend Cope2 started writing graffiti around 1980, his cousin Chico 80 introduced Cope into writing and it ran in the family. He made his own crew called Kids Destroy and eventually it changed to Kings Destroy after he was the king of the 4 line.
Some of Cope2's initial commercial artwork has been sold on the Christie's auction block for $1,000(USD) per painting. Early work includes cover art for a Boogie Down Productions album titled Sex and Violence.
More recently Cope2 has appeared in Marc Ecko's 2006 video game, Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure. As one of the graffiti legends, your character takes a photograph of Cope2's work, shortly before Cope2 himself arrives and teaches your character how to write throwups on trains. Before the release of the game, Cope2 called a local Councilman, Peter Vallone Jr., to complain about the shutting down of a publicity event for the title. The event, coordinated by Mark Ecko, called for the spray painting of vintage train cars during a block party celebrating Graffiti and Hiphop culture. Vallone is noted as saying he was responsible for having the permit pulled for the event. Vallone is quoted as calling Cope2 a punk. It is said this confrontation sparked the interest of Time Magazine in the artist. The event permit was later reissued as judge Jed S. Rakoff of the Federal District Court in Manhattan over turned the previous ruling on grounds of freedom of speech.
Time Magazine commissioned Cope2, for $20,000(USD), to paint a billboard ad in the SoHo district of Manhattan, New York on Houston and Wooster. The ad depicts the magazines cover with graffiti tags scrawled over it, the text reads Post-Modernism? Neo-Expressionism? Just Vandalism? Time. Know why
Cope2 has designed a pair of sneakers for Converse under the Chuck Taylor All-Stars line his throw up recently appeared on a wall in the movie Shrek The Third. Cope2 is one of the most known users of WILDSTYLE and is also known for his bubble letters.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Liverpool () is a city in North West England, with an estimated population of 491,500 in 2017. Its metropolitan area is the fifth-largest in the UK, with a population of 2.24 million in 2011. The local authority is Liverpool City Council, the most populous local government district in the metropolitan county of Merseyside and the largest in the Liverpool City Region.
Liverpool is on the eastern side of the Mersey Estuary, and historically lay within the ancient hundred of West Derby in the south west of the county of Lancashire. It became a borough in 1207 and a city in 1880. In 1889, it became a county borough independent of Lancashire. Its growth as a major port was paralleled by the expansion of the city throughout the Industrial Revolution. Along with handling general cargo, freight, raw materials such as coal and cotton, the city merchants were involved in the Atlantic slave trade. In the 19th century, it was a major port of departure for Irish and English emigrants to North America. Liverpool was home to both the Cunard and White Star Line, and was the port of registry of the ocean liner RMS Titanic, the RMS Lusitania, RMS Queen Mary and RMS Olympic.
The popularity of the Beatles and other music groups from the Merseybeat era contributes to Liverpool's status as a tourist destination. Liverpool is also the home of two Premier League football clubs, Liverpool and Everton, matches between the two being known as the Merseyside derby. The Grand National horse race takes place annually at Aintree Racecourse on the outskirts of the city.
The city celebrated its 800th anniversary in 2007. In 2008, it was nominated as the annual European Capital of Culture together with Stavanger, Norway. Several areas of the city centre were granted World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in 2004. The Liverpool Maritime Mercantile City includes the Pier Head, Albert Dock, and William Brown Street.

Liverpool's status as a port city has attracted a diverse population, which, historically, was drawn from a wide range of peoples, cultures, and religions, particularly from Ireland and Wales. The city is also home to the oldest Black African community in the country and the oldest Chinese community in Europe.
Natives and residents of the city of Liverpool are referred to as Liverpudlians, and colloquially as Scousers, a reference to scouse, a form of stew. The word Scouse has also become synonymous with the Liverpool accent and dialect.
