Climate Action Day observed
Drawing attention on the need to reduce carbon in the atmosphere to a scientifically determined safe level of 350 ppm, the International Day of Climate Action was observed in the country yesterday.
Different social and environmental organisations held different programmes in the city and across the country to mark the day.
With the slogan of "Change Behavior, Not Climate," Work for a Better Bangladesh (WBB Trust) organised a colourful rally from National Museum to TSC of Dhaka University with participation of a large number of children from different parts of the city.
Prottyasa Madok Birodhi Sangathan, Nirapad Development Foundation, Nature Loving People (NLP), Green Voice, Swabhumi, Safe Bangladesh, and other environmental organisations, participated the rally with banners and festoons inscribed different slogans including 'Save the balance of climate and save the environment' and 'Save the coastal people'.
The rally was addressed, among others, by Ibnul Syed Rana, chairman of Nirapad Development Foundation, Syed Saiful Alam Suvan, programme officer of WBB Trust, Humaoun Kabir Somuon, Syeda Ananya Rahman, Mohammad Alamgir and Maruf Ahmed.
The speakers said that the temperatures are rising and storms are worsening due to the whimsical behaviour of human beings. Ice is melting and sea levels are rising day by day and due to the reason Bangladesh is likely to go underwater within a short peroiod, As a result, a large number of coastal people of the country will be homeless, they added.
They also said that the climate changes are going to worsen because people are burning fossil fuels - diesel, petrol, natural gas and coal - at rapid rates. So the future generations are now under threat.
They stressed on the importance of changing behaviour to balance the climate to raise attention to the 350 ppm target for reducing climate change.

The robin (Erithacus rubecula) is one of Britain's most cherished garden birds, instantly recognizable by its vivid orange-red breast and warm, inviting song. Although adults flaunt this distinctive coloration year-round, juveniles tend to have more mottled brown plumage, lacking the prominent red, which only develops as they mature .
In behavior, robins are fiercely territorial despite their endearing appearance. They are known to engage in aggressive disputes over feeding and breeding areas, with such conflicts sometimes even leading to fatal outcomes. Remarkably, nearly three-quarters of young robins do not survive their first year, largely due to predation and the hardships of establishing territories; even among adult populations, a significant number face risks from these defensive encounters .
When it comes to feeding, the robin is an adaptable forager, flourishing in gardens, woodlands, and hedgerows. Its diet consists primarily of worms, insects, seeds, and fruits, which it hunts with precision and determination. Furthermore, robins exhibit a curious form of self-maintenance: they sometimes pick up ants or millipedes whose defensive chemicals they then rub onto their feathers, a behavior thought to help repel parasites such as mites and ticks .
Breeding behavior in robins is just as intriguing. They are notably early breeders, sometimes beginning nest-building and laying eggs as soon as a mild winter gives way—even as early as January under favorable conditions. Their nests, constructed from moss, twigs, and other available materials, are often built in traditional spots like hedgerows but can also be found in the most unexpected urban nooks, such as post boxes or even discarded boots. This inventive approach to nesting underscores their remarkable adaptability in both natural and human-dominated environments .
Robins are also celebrated for their vocal prowess. Their songs, which can be heard nearly throughout the year, are more than just a soothing background melody; they serve as a testament to the bird’s territorial spirit and its ability to cope with the challenges of urban and rural life alike. The robin's diverse array of vocalizations, including alarm calls that resemble a ticking or high-pitched "seep," contribute to its rich cultural significance—a significance that has seen it twice declared Britain's national bird and woven into folklore associating its fiery breast with omens of weather and natural change

"it takes a stiff upper lip
just to hold up my face
i gotta suck it up and savor
the taste of my own behavior
i am spinning with longing
faster then a roulette wheel
this is not who i meant to be
this is not how i meant to feel"
--"Wish I May", Ani Difranco
I am letting the stress of STILL being unemployed, my finals in school next week, the recent altercation in class, the fact that I don't feel safe at school anymore, and the fact that the people I love the most seem to understand me the least get to me. It's all getting heavy in my brain.. messed up like a 9 car pile-up.
And all I want is to stop existing.
....I don't think that I'm strong enough to do this much longer... God, I wish I was stronger...

Conducta (2014) Just two weeks after its premier, the cuban film Conducta, has filled cuban movie theatres. Written and Directed by Ernesto Daranas (“Los Dioses Rotos”, 2009), the movie tells the story of “Chala”, a 12 year old social outcast from La Habana, and his relationship with Carmela, his veteran sixth grade teacher.
Having a promiscuous, drogadict mom, not knowing who his dad was, and living in a ramshackle house, Chala spent his days at school and his afternoons training fight dogs (an illegal activity in Cuba) in order to make a living for him and his mother. The movie that is attracting thousands of viewers to the theatres is already considered the biggest audiovisual event of the year.

I went up to Richmond today to hang out with MikeB, Surrounded By Light, Jeff_M, and Phil at the Holly wood Cemetery.
It was a hoot. Some statues feel ashamed, however. A couple need showers. It's all in a day of fun.

Sometimes, I experience things as a photographer that make me feel old, devoid of humour, or whatever:
It's not the first time I observed that the sheer sight of a camera can transform (more or less) grown men into apes that crave to make fools of themselves. This is the first time I didn't turn away in disgust, but pressed the shutter because they seemed to have fun.
The strange thing was that there actually was no apparent reason for this behavior - I walked along an inconspicuous street to take architecture pictures, and I did not know these people. I didn't wear a funny hat, nor was I practicing my latest silly walk, and this isn't the time of the Oktoberfest (that's when such a behavior could be considered closer to the - alcoholized - human species).
Ah well - maybe it is that they realized that in those post-Warholian times, everyone of us only gets a few seconds of fame (shucks, weren't those times great when it still was a quarter of an hour?).

I have seen Anna's hummingbirds as far south as Arizona and as far north as Vancouver, BC. They are the most commonly seen hummingbirds in the San Francisco Bay area.
These can be caused by the unrealstic portrayal of women in the media (and men as well), and can lead to very serious health problems. Photo from www.bashzone.com
