The Hour of Code is a fabulous initiative which aims to do a simple yet profound thing: to teach folks to code. It was a welcome scene as President Obama and Vice President Biden swung by to lend their support to this initiative. One organization that has seen the light has been the Scouts with its' continued emphasis on 21st Century skills and the development of new Merit Badges. Troop 772 of Laguna Niguel held one such "Geek Week-End" whereby the team was able to learn Ruby & HTML5 and create webpages. We here @ #Outsiders were witness to this fabulous day where Scouts learnt to code in Ruby & HTML5 and were able to create a website--vital skills in today's ever changing World.

Reflections For the Week-End
It is a beautiful day in Southern California after a day of rain. Many will be in parades and with on-going commitments. This sentiment received underscores the true sentiments about a true embrace of life as we hope everyone's Little Light shines brightly ever more.
Onward.....
Onward.....
- “This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- Every day, every day, every day, every way,
- Gonna let my little light shine.
- Light that shines is the light of love,
- Hides the darkness from above,
- Shines on me and it shines on you,
- Shows you what the power of love can do.
- Shine my light both bright and clear,
- Shine my light both far and near,
- In every dark corner that I find,
- Let my little light shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- Monday gave me the gift of love,
- Tuesday peace came from above,
- Wednesday told me to have more faith,
- Thursday gave me a little more grace,
- Friday told me to watch and pray,
- Saturday told me just what to say,
- Sunday gave me the power divine,
- Just to let my little light shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
- Shine, shine, shine, shine, shine.”
