Philadelphia
Development in Philly is out of control, worsening conditions for working class people & the environment. Hundreds of community activists took to the streets to set the tone for Philly's 2023 election: anyone running for mayor or city council better have policy solutions for ensuring long-term, working class residents have a place in this city and that Philly is truly tackling and prepared for the climate crisis.
The march was organized by community groups fighting for land justice across our city, including Philly Thrive, Sunrise Movement, VietLead, Save UCTownhomes, Save the Meadows, Cobbs Creek EJ, and more!
Jim Bowsher loves local history. He loves having it come alive for people, and not just being some stuffy thing in a book. That's part of why he built what he calls the Temple of Tolerance in his backyard. Well, actually, in three backyards that he purchased to make room for the giant glacial rocks that stand at the heart of it.
Jim's also an amateur archaeologist with a penchant for finding so-called banded rocks indigenous to this part of northern Ohio - the result of volcanic activity a long, long time ago. He tracks down these enormous boulders, then moves them into place in the yard with levers, no power tools, and in doing so has created a stately, majestic backyard environment quite unlike any other we've seen.
In and around the rocks, he's added pieces from old buildings and farmsteads around Wapakoneta. When people roam around and over the Temple of Tolerance, the energies from those structures inspire dialogue and memories. And that's how history should be taught, he believes.
Jim says airplane pilots have come to his door because they couldn't believe what they saw flying over it. And oh yes, there's bluegrass music here on warm Thursday nights. You're invited.

The memorial was created by Fred Reinders to honor those who had served in the Military during World War I. The monument stands twenty feet high and twelve feet wide, with the base being and octagon, and took three months to build. It depicts an American soldier on a center pedestal standing amidst the battlements of war, with the goddess Columbia standing below him placing a laurel wreath over a tablet on which were to have been inscribed the names of the town's dead soldiers. Over the plaque is a spread eagle representing the United States. The soldier was model after Bernie Webster and the young lady at the base of the was modeled after Miss Jennie Klein. It was dedicated on September 5, 1921.

World Environment Day was celebrated with a lot of enthusiasm and zeal at Indian School Darsait on 5th June 2022. The children of KG II B presented the Environment Day assembly with the message ‘Go Green’. The programme began with the presentation of a potted plant.
Our principal was immensely happy and responded that he loved this gesture shown by our students today. The Vice Principal in her address mentioned about the importance of saving the environment for a better future
All the aspects that predominantly cater to save the environment campaign were showcased in the assembly. Under the guidance of our Coordinator and class teacher, the theme ‘Only one earth ‘was highlighted with clear dialogues, mesmerizing dances, and a melodious group song, ’The earth is our home’
The children were expressing their views and ideas clearly by skits and through a spellbinding mime. They drove home the importance of saving earth and the duties that we are bound to do towards keeping the earth a safe and healthy place to live in. They also portrayed the tremendous ill treatment that we are unknowingly causing to mar the aesthetic blessing that we have. They had the audience enthralled with their witty lines and actions.
Children of KG I had a colouring activity and KG II had an Environment day collage making activity. The entire school was a green zone with everyone dressed in green clothes and showing their solidarity with the theme of Go green.
Imagine our surprise when we were walking back to our hotel after seeing the sea otters at Vancouver Aquarium and Matt spotted this little guy cleaning himself on a jetty in the harbour!
He was a fair distance away so I had to use my 200mm lens and this was the best I could do sorry.
View On Black to see him a bit better.

Nikki Bass, vice chair of the Nansemond Indian Nation tribal council, poses for a portrait at Mattanock Town in Suffolk, Va., on July 27, 2024. Official ownership of the roughly 75-acre property was recently transferred to the tribe from the city of Suffolk. “I live right across from the Nansemond River, less than 20 feet away from me. My favorite thing to do is see who is on the river each morning. The day after the Mattanock Town settlement, I went out, and there was a dolphin right there,” Bass said.
