This
page is the page for those who want
to know a bit about me, my family, and some of my interests. For a
guide to some of my pet causes and annotated links to a few hundred of
my favorite web sites, see the variety
page. You can also start with James
Hayes-Bohanan Environmental Geography, which is a pointer to
several of my pages.
The family
page includes
stories and photos of my wonderful wife, daughter, and our home next to
Bridgewater State College. We live in a poem, as we say, and I am
thankful
every day for my family life.
The
curriculum vitae (c.v.) is an academic version of a resume. Resume
means summary;
c.v. is the detailed story of an entire career. Mine includes every
degree,
graduate course, college committee, course taught, publication, and
public lecture or presentation.
I maintain my c.v. online, so that I can provide links to some of
actual
work.
The Fun Job List might be a bit more interesting than the c.v. It is
not as formal,
but it gives the reader an idea of the many, often strange jobs I have
held, from fast food to fundraising.
It also includes a list of every school I have attended since first
grade.
The Fun Job List is just the
beginning of the fun. On my Just Fun pages, I share a fair bit of
extra-curricular fun, including some of my favorite ideas and links on
food, humor, and the arts, in addition to some of the bleeding-heart
causes I proudly support. My recipes and film favorites are part of the
fun to be found.
Pamela
Hayes-Bohanan, my wife and colleague, has a web site that
includes tips for leading a better life! She updates it frequently, and
brings many of these great ideas to
our home, helping to keep us sane and healthy.
Her web site also explains a lot about libraries, librarians, and
information literacy. Those who think the internet has made libraries
obsolete need to read her page!
You may have
heard that I am in a band, and wondered how that could be. I am in the
Male Bonding Band, which functions as a men's group for my church. We
have a lot of fun, and so do our audiences. We actually raise a fair
amount
of money for our church and other causes.
I
started a web site and online book store for my church a number of
years ago. The site is improving as others have become more involved.
The main function
of the book store is to generate a small revenue stream for the church,
as
well as to share recommendations from members.

MY
PROFILES Online
communities to enhance my web site and my teaching.
I use Yelp
for reviews of coffee shops -- and maps to find them.
Stumble
Upon is a handy way for me to recommend a wide variety of web sites.
I use
Flickr Pro to post photographs from student travel and annotated ,
instructional slideshows.
I use Facebook to communicate with students and friends locally and
worldwide, and to post campus and community events.
My first blog is a place for news and observations about geography, the
environment, and other things I just find interesting.
My second blog is dedicated to EarthView, our giant, traveling globe.
The blog is for news of our school visits, and is a place for students
we visit to post questions about geography. I posting
a few of my better photos to my National Geographic gallery.
I am not a barista, but coffee enthusiasts are allowed to join Barista
Exchange. Visit my profile to see what I am learning from the
professionals.
Coffee Universe is the ultimate source of information about coffee
online. It now has a social-networking side for coffee enthusiasts of
all kinds.
I use
playlists to share videos and music for classroom
use and to extend my web content.
The
Internet Movie Database is the best source of information on films. I
sometimes post reviews, especially of movies that have a geographic
connection.
My daughter
introduced me to Pandora radio, on which I have several "stations,"
each of which includes a mix of songs I have chosen and similar songs
the site's algorithms have chosen for me. With
colleagues and students, I use blogspot to share ideas on campus
sustainability.
