So apparently when both a French language ingredient list and nutritional information are required by law, the language requirement trumps the nutritional info, as evidenced by the French sticker covering up the latter.
Even in a province where nutritional info is about a million times more relevant to the general population than French.
This pisses me off SO much.

At first, I wondered why there was a sign for a fire hydrant at a fire hydrant. Then I realized that the sign's purpose was to show the location when the hydrant had been covered with snow. Quebec winters can be tough.

Siona and Vivian had the honor of being chosen to represent GRPS as two of six third graders chosen to speak at GRAM (Grand Rapids Art Museum) on May 15, 2013.
After photographing this young bear for awhile, I noticed that he kept his mouth open and thought that I remembered reading once that this could be an indication that the bear was feeling stressed...time to leave. (This photo was zoomed and cropped quite a bit.)

Speakers of the Ske language of Pentecost Island in Vanuatu are creating children's books for First Grade students. The idea is to for the students to learn to read in their own language first and then transfer that ability later on to a larger / principal medium of education, like English or French.

Scott is a linguist and historian who speaks several different ancient languages, including Gaelic, Welsh and Russian. He was explaining to me the fine differences between Scottish Gaelic, Ulster Irish, Munster Irish, Argyll Gaelic and Manx when my cellphone rang and I was called away. Before I left, I asked Scott for a few quick shots, and quickly explained the 100 Strangers project. I'm glad he agreed to be photographed.
Thank you, Scott, for being stranger number sixty-three in my 100 Strangers project. I wish I would have been able to spend some more time listening to the different dialects. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the flickr group page.

"Barrabackslarrabang
This wall text is written in backlang, a form of slang spoken in many cities to camouflage speech, protecting the speaker from being overheard, especially from the ears of the law. Backslang is sewn with rogues sounds to confuse the ear and slips easily into a linguistic play of skill and wit. Liverpool Backslang involves replacing the first or all vowels in key words of a phrase with 'ab', 'ag' or 'arrab', while Birmingham Backslang works with variations of of 'iligili'.
Liverpool backslang has absorbed elements from the any streams of global trade passing through the docks, such as Spanish, Dutch, Yiddish, Chines and African languages. In the 1930s backslang migrated upwards via the sax trade into upper class circles and mixed with the gay. slang Polari, another linguistic disguise. In Toxteth in the 1980s the emerging soft drugs trade made conections between neighbourhoods previously divided along racial or territorial lines, and backslang developed. In the late 1990s backslang hit the national headlines through Curtis Warren; boen in Toxteth and later on one of the riches drug barons ion Europe, he confounded the wiretappers for many years by using backslang in all phone conversations.
Like all languages backslang is a social space of belonging and community, - perhaps even of resistance, in conditions of physical and economic pressure - and is spoken with pride. "We had absolutely nothing, but at least we had our language."
The words on the wall are taken from the transcript of the film "Barrabackslarrabang" (Imogen Stidworthy 2009/10). You hear a version of the film soundtrack on the loudspeakers.
Te above text was written at the exhibition in sa_bold_monoface, a typeface designed with inbuilt irregularities based on the reading behaviours of people with dyslexia, by designer Salome Schmuki.
Imagine over 400 students singing and dancing in a daily program intended to help develop the English language and vocabulary. This summer program is Learning the Language in Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD. Learning the Language is being hosted at Central Elementary this year.
Since 1985, Bilingual and ESL students in C-FB have been attending Learning the Language during the summer. The purpose of the program is to develop English through the use of fairy tales, songs and movement.
The Pied Piper visits the students every day for one hour to sing songs that he wrote himself and dance, while developing oral language in kids. Each student receives a CD to keep with all the music they sing to practice at home.
Teachers use fairy tales, poems, and hands-on activities to engage kids in the learning. Kids love coming to school every day during the summer to learn and sing with teachers and the Piper. The program consists predominantly of Pre-K and Kinder students. Students in 1st-5th grades who are new to the country also attend. Older students participate in a puppet show that correlates with the fairy tale they read that week. The program is four weeks long, starting June 10 and ending July 3.
Through singing, dancing, fairy tales and reading, students in C-FB learn at high levels.

PRESIDIO OF MONTEREY, Calif. -- The military and civilian communities joined the Presidio of Monterey command team at the Presidio cemetery Dec. 14 to lay wreaths at headstones to remember and honor fallen veterans.
Col. Greg Ford, Presidio of Monterey commander, and Command Sgt. Maj. Roberto Marshall opened the ceremony with a few brief remarks followed by an invocation from Chaplain (Col.) Eric Meyners.
After the opening ceremony, volunteers were handed wreaths to lay. When a wreath is laid -- the volunteer laying the wreath reads the name on the headstone out loud.
Veterans from the American Legion Riders - District 28 held American flags at the cemetery entrance to welcome volunteers into the cemetery.
This wreath-laying ceremony marks the fourth year the Presidio has participated in the Wreaths Across America program. Every year in December, Wreaths Across America coordinates wreath-laying ceremonies at more than 1,600 locations across the United States, at sea and abroad.
"We had tremendous support this year ... we want to continue this tradition to ensure the families and veterans buried here are never forgotten, and their sacrifice is always recognized," said Ford.
