"A crowd quickly gathered round to listen to us and ask questions about the threat from these weapons. There was a lot of interest because no one had been given any information up to that point. We used images to show them what dangerous objects such as shells, grenades and ammunition, look like, and what to do if they come across one of these objects.”

My kitchen phone and the answering machine. Now redundant as we have finally cut the cable from Bell. We had the phone line to support our DSL but we've now moved on beyond that so, goodbye Bell. I like to say our household now has the No Bell Prize.

Comic Book Fans and Creators join forces to do good at the 1st Annual “Heroes Helping Legends”. A weekend celebrating comic books while helping artists and writers in need.
Question: Who does a Living Legend turn to when in need of help? Answer: The fans. Everyone knows that they are the lifeblood of any creative endeavor. The fans have always "got your back." The 1st Annual "Heroes Helping Legends" event allows Chicago's comic book fans to give back to creators that have already given them so much joy and entertainment. Many of the art form's earliest writers and artists find themselves unable to make ends meet in their retirement and often lack adequate resources to cover medical expenses.
Now it is the loyal readers' turn to play the hero by attending a two-day mini-convention, Saturday, September 16th and Sunday, September 17th, 2006 at the Mercury Café, 1505 W. Chicago Avenue in Chicago. Fans will be able to hunt for literary treasure through a massive comic book sale, chat with local writers, get a unique sketch by local artists, and bid on range of one-of-a-kind art and collectibles all while enjoying the music of local bands. All proceeds benefit The Hero Initiative (www.HeroInitiative.org), formerly A.C.T.O.R. Comic Fund (www.actorcomicfund.org) - a national non-profit that provides financial assistance and a critical network of support to comic book industry veterans that have met with hard times.
This event is meant for fans of all ages and will be appealing to any collector on a budget. Most comics will be sold at the price of 5 comics for one dollar. To encourage sustained perusing, hint sheets will be sold to lead fans to prizes that are hidden in select issues. Local artists like Skottie Young and Andrew Pepoy will be on hand to draw sketches while bands with a comic book affinity like Daemon Familiar and Recent Photo will ensure that the Mercury Café is rockin'. The event will represent the diverse range of the comics medium so fans of underground slice of life stories will be as much at home as the fans of the capes and spandex set. The imagery and iconic power of comic book characters permeates every aspect of our culture and it is often the most enduring relationships that we will have with fictional characters in all of literature. It is up to all of us to make certain that those responsible for these beloved characters and stories are not left out in the cold once they have moved on from the limelight.
Avid and novice readers alike are welcome. There is a suggested $5 entry fee donation and the organizers are still soliciting donated comic books if you need to make some room among your collection. Contact them at heroeshelpinglegends@yahoo.com

Answering the Emigrant's Letter.
By James Collinson (1825-1881).
Oil on panel, 1850.
Cottage scene of family, a man, woman, three children and baby, seated round a table in the corner of the room, writing a letter. On the right, the man, dressed in brown breeches, white shirt, and red waistcoat and neck tie, sits with a received letter in one hand, a map of South Australia on the table before him. The children are gathered closely together, intent on writing a letter on the table, the boy on the left holding the pen. The woman sits slightly apart from the group, her head turned slightly towards them, with a baby on her lap and a dog at her feet. She is wearing a green dress with a red apron, and a white bonnet. The baby attempts to pull a sock onto its right foot, copying its mother. Behind her, to the left, is a large black kitchen range, with the glow of a fire, and various toys and ornaments lining the mantlepiece. A bird sits in a cage attached to the wall next to a window on the right, pots of geraniums and cups lining the window sill. Sheets hang from a pulley system across the ceiling.
Collinson was one of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Although this painting does not reflect their techniques, it shares their pre-occupation with modern-life subjects, most prevalent in the early 1850s. It shows a family gathered together to write back to a friend or relation who has emigrated to Australia. Over a million people had emigrated in the ten years before Collinson painted this picture. Hence, it was a subject of great interest to the public. The cottage interior looks realistic, not idealised. Similarly, the fact that a boy is drafting the reply, and not his less-educated parents, has the ring of truth.
"...Every day. Every minute.
Every minute, she says.
Yes, it's that way, isn't it?”

Quiz #16 06/23/08 – 07/06/08
This week’s quiz is a rather poor shot in low light. Despite this we can see some very bold field marks, mainly yellow underparts and a dark black throat. With such bright colors in this combination certainly the New World warblers and perhaps a few orioles come to mind, but little else. In terms of the orioles only really Hooded and young male Orchard Orioles could fit this bird due to the extent of the black bib and the fact that we can see some yellow feathers on the side of the face telling us that this bird does not have a totally black head as in Baltimore, for example. We can eliminate both probably by tail length and shape alone but, more definitively by foot color, being grayish blue in the orioles and pink in the quiz bird.
In terms of black bibbed, yellow warblers we have a few somewhat unexpected group of birds. In terms of full species Hooded, Bachman’s and Townsend’s are really the only three. But we must also consider Hermit x Townsend hybrids as well as Blue-winged x Golden-winged Warbler hybrids, specifically Lawrence’s Warbler. MacGillivray’s Warbler was guessed but can be eliminated, along with Mourning, by the yellow on the sides of the face and the jet black throat instead of a mottled looking throat. Not a bad guess though, as many other plumage characteristics fit nicely. (See tail pattern discussion below as well.) Townsend’s can be eliminated by the lack of black streaks down the flanks and upper breast. However, one could argue that a combination of Hermit (who’s bib matches quite well) and Townsend’s (which has yellow underparts) could fit well. To eliminate others we have to look at the undertail coverts (which are in slight shadow) and tail pattern (which is somewhat out of focus.) Even though both Lawrence’s and Bachman’s are nearly spot-on in terms of other plumage considerations both have/had white or whitish undertail coverts and bold subterminal black bars on the rectrices (tail feathers) neither of which are present. Plus, like last quiz’s inclusion of Ivory-billed Woodpecker, I likely would not be writing this if I had taking a picture of a Bachman’s Warbler because I would have suffered a massive heart-attack from the shock. The same eliminating features are true for both Hermit and Townsend’s Warblers and subsequent hybrids. So we are left with Hooded Warbler and, indeed when we look at the tail pattern of this species with the broad nearly completely white outer rectrices, it’s a match.
I took this shot of a singing male HOODED WARBLER in Olmsted Township, Ohio (west of Cleveland) on a recent trip. I have included another, much better
shot of this guy. Low numbers of answers this time. Not a complaint just an observation. I always find this part of the quiz very interesting. Maybe this was a difficult one? Or maybe people are spending more time outside!
Answer Breakdown:
MacGillivray’s Warbler – 1
Hooded Warbler – 1
ANSWER:
HOODED WARBLER

Story from the HART web site.
"We have found the owner of the Katrina cat named Jefferson. There is a group called stealthvolunteers that is trying to reunite Katrina animals with their owners. One of the volunteers had a law librarian research the owners of Jefferson based on the address where he was found. They found the family living with relatives in Memphis, Tennessee.
The family had evacuated New Orleans before the hurricane except for the man. He stayed to take care of the animals. His house was flooded and he was forced to evacuate without his animals after the hurricane. They returned to their house to find that their dog had drowned and the cat was not in the house. They searched for their cat but could not find him. Jefferson's real name is Coby. The family was ecstatic that Coby had been found.
Coby will be reunited with his family in Memphis on Friday, Oct. 14."
The December 12th 2009 march of the Peoples in Copenhagen united from 30,000 (low government estimate) to 100,000 (high participants estimate) people from all over the world.
See tr.im/Hw9Z
Their messages:
"We want global cooperation between people. We can do it together. Even 100 persons collaborating in 10,000 cities means 1,000,000 people..."
"We want an ambitious, fair and binding legal Treaty."
"I want the governments to act more strongly to stop climate change."
"From Malawi, to the developed countries: give us a fair deal so we can reduce emissions and everyone is less affected by climate change"
"From Brussels: I'm here to protect the life, because we have reached a certain point that we have to act NOW. If I don't for myself, I have to do it for my children, I really hope that this is going to be the real deal, and that we will end this week by significant change. "
"I hope that we will fix some limits that will be reasonable not only for business, but for the Earth. I don't care about business, I care about life, and we are playing a game that we will not survive for a long time."
"I'm here for the children, all the children of the world; because we have to change the direction now, and share this beautiful world we have, we live on, together now. We have to change, to start to live sustainably, and to think always about the children, because they have the answer for us, how we should live our lives."
"I would like to see for the end of the deliberations of COP15 that everybody would take responsibility for their country, to start to only use sustainable energy, to stop the cars, to just live so we can stay on this earth for a long long, much longer time than it looks like now."
"I'm wearing a survival ball, designed to withstand any climate catastrophy, nuclear blast, biological warfare, pretty much anything... I recommend that everybody get one soon, before the real climate crisis happens. I would like to see substantial climate legislation passed, that really reduces our carbon emissions, and protects the ecology."
"A trade union organizer: Traditionally, from the Trade Unions, we are organizers to the big demonstrations. We've been looking forward to a peaceful demonstration. It seems to be rather big, the last numbers I heard was over 100,000. That's very big in Denmark, and in Copenhagen. We have the same interest in climate change as anyone else. We have to do something about it, we have to put pressure on the politicians, so they start acting, stop thinking in profit but act in favor of the climate. They should tighten up, they have to go further than what I've heard today. Twenty to thirty percent cuts in CO2 is not enough!"
"Paramedics: in a big demonstration, ambulance cannot get in, because of violence or police barricades. If people get injured, or get ill, or have any problem right in the streets, then there is an urgent need of paramedics. I hope we don't have much to do. I want to bring the message to the world: it was said that we would be 100,000 people. I didn't count them, I don't know if this is true. But there are a lot of people, it's a strong voice!"
"Germany: I'm here for the global civil movement for radical system change, not climate change. I don't expect anything from the negotiations of the so-called political leaders. I think that we the people all around the world have to take this in our hands, to save the climate and to fight for climate justice, and not to put our hopes on false economical solutions and so-called political leaders who don't do anything. So I'm looking for, after the negotiations, for networking with people all around the world, for strengthening the global movement for climate justice."
"Cape Town: We're fighting against Free Trade. I'm with a group that came from Geneva to Copenhagen by the Climate Justice caravan. What we expect from these negotiations is for the leaders to live up to justice, and to pay for the years of ecological debt that's been caused by the capitalist system; and we expect the northern governments to ... finances and technology to the South without conditions. We condemn the market-based mechanisms that have been promoted in these negotiations. We want a new system, a new Treaty, based on reparations for the people of the South. For 400 years of capitalism and colonialism and exploitation from Europe, 10 billion dollars is really nothing. And if they are pledging, I certainly hope they`re pledging to the UN Adaptation Fund, and not to the World Bank. I think that hundreds of billions are required for reparations, and that governments from the South need to be vigilent, because they have been impacted drastically, people are poor, people are jobless, because of the system; so we need hundreds of billions, that our governemnts need, to make sure that the North pays its ecological debt. Thank you"
"Holland: I'm here to demonstrate because I don't believe that the government is coming up with a good climate solution for the climate problem. They put too much importance on economics. I don't think that the priority is where it should be."
"Holland: I'm here to demonstrate because I truly believe in a greener future, and I'm worried that it's not going to happen with our current governments. So I'm hoping to motivate them with my presence here."
"Holland: I see a culture which is really about the ego, it's really distance from each other, we have to come back to each other, and back to the world."

This is a sculpture from The Cyprus College of Art, in the remote village of Lemba near Paphos (Cyprus) founded by - Stass Paraschos.
Mr. Stass founded the college in 1970 and through his own work has contributed significantly to the artistic development of the country. Because of this - the small village is now transformed into the island's first cultural village.
This is a magical place, every small piece amazes you. It is a treat for art lovers. You need to see more than once to understand the art and appreciate it.
I was fortunate to meet one of the artist who has significant contribution to this collage Mr. Michael Brimble

Before the new European Commission can take office the proposed new Commissioners must pass often tough Question and Answer sessions in front of Members of the European Parliament. Each committee questions the person who will be responsible for that dossier on issues ranging from their CV to political views. The last time this happened not all candidates passed muster as MEPs must sign off on them before they can take office.
