"Mission Statement for a (Photo) Project: Having a child is hard. Not only in the pure, physical responsibility, but also psychologically. Axioms and basic truths premised upon experience are upended in an instant. All of life is reopened for questioning, for re-exploration, and its suddenness is breathtaking in its brutality.
And as you are breaking down and rebuilding, so the familiar around you mutates into something new. What was large is now small, closed, constricted. And what was open and free is now daunting and threatening and filled with danger and potential menace at worst, inconvenience at best.
This is not about claustrophobia or agoraphobia per-se. This is rather concerned with the fluidity of my own interpretation of familiar spaces - of my life - when assaulted from outside by this new permanent resident within it."
I began this abandoned project following the birth of my daughter in 2011. The above was my mission statement to come to terms with what, at the time, was so overwhelming. I rediscovered it today following a visit to The Photographers' Gallery's exhibition "Home Truths" concerning women's sense of identity following birth. I was trying to do the same thing from a father's perspective...
One of the last weekends to see the Aspen change colors. What a beautiful sight. Pictures don't do it justice. Enjoy!

Climate Corporate Governance for Financial Institutions - Building resilience to climate change risk
During the past decade, with extreme weather causing hundreds of USD billions of
losses per year and the changing climate intensifying the adverse effects of wasteful
practices, environmental considerations have overtaken economic concerns as the
main sources of global risk, according to the World Economic Forum.
Financial regulators and the European Union are responding with recommendations
and guidance on the disclosure of climate-related financial risks to help integrate
sustainability into investor portfolio management. Credit rating agencies are
developing new ways to anticipate how climate-related risks could impact businesses
and financial institutions.
But is this enough?
To assess whether the financial sector is adequately equipped, the EBRD is brought
together representatives from financial institutions to share their practical experience
of the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of climate-related risk management.
The event discuseed ways to achieve an effective investor-led climate response
via climate corporate governance, standards-based climate finance, climate risk
management, climate-related capital market products.

Here are photos from the fast and vigil in Toronto. We held vigil at the constituency office of Joe Oliver, Minister of Natural Resources, promoter of the tar sands industry. We read out the speech delivered by Yeb Saño at COP19, using the mic check method, to be sure those in his office and passers by could hear his words. We shared word of Brigada Kalikasan. Facing his office was the sign: HUNGRY FOR CLIMATE LEADERSHIP and facing traffic was the sign HUNGRY FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE. climatefast.ca in conjunction with Fast for the Earth fastfortheearth.com

Kemp's Ridley sea turtle changes color with its development. As hatchlings they are almost entirely a dark grey-black but when they become adults (the age of adulthood is debated, some say they reach maturity at the age of 7-15 but others claim that sexual maturity doesn't occur until the age of 35) they have a yellow-green or white plastron and a grey-green carapace.
The estimated number of nesting females in the year of 1947 was 42,000 but it dove to an estimated 1,000 by the mid 1980s.
The nesting season for these turtles is between April to June, though some nest as late as July or August. They nest mostly in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas, but they sometimes on Padre Island in the U.S. state of Texas. The adult sea turtles mate offshore and when a powerful wind blows from the north the females land in groups on the beach (they prefer areas with dunes followed by swamps). They are the only species of sea turtle known to lay their eggs during the day.
Females nest three times during a season with roughly 10 to 28 days between nestings. Incubation can take anywhere from 45 to 70 days. There are, on average, around 110 eggs per nesting.
The sex of hatchlings is decided by the temperature in the area during incubation. If the temperature is below 29.5 degrees Celsius the offspring will be mainly male.
my Company employed 600 people, I think 350 of us were given 2 months notice today. Nice that we have 2 more months we can work, while we job hunt. It's been a good company to work for and I will miss my co-workers.
The number was actually 320 of us.
The changes afoot at Allerton Depot are not trivial.
The fleet of Northern Electrics constantly grows and now it appears from what I am told and can see that the depot building is being extended. Furthermore, the trackwork and wiring at the western end of the site is material.
All this with trains whizzing past and using the depot.

This shot was taken from a Manchester Oxford Road to Lime Street all stations, looking northwest.
The track furthest from camera is a depot track with 1961 overhead wiring in place. Work is in hand to upgrade that wiring to modern standards and convert it to a 'headshunt'.
The middle track the 'Up and Down Electric' bi-directional, 3rd-rail electrified single track deviating north to run parallel to the track my train is on..
We're Here! seeking change in our lives. So, I thought I would change the air filter in my house. It was the right thing to do.
Ma’Enthle took the mic and explained to the participants at the Howick Global People’s March the importance of working together: “even the littlest of people can make a big difference!”

On a Dali kick lately. Liquify is such a fun tool. Found this register at a friend of my son's (same place I found the violin) had to take a separate picture of the coins to make it more interesting.. I like the way it came out.. what do you think?
Isolating and insulating oneself from change only leads to inevitable obsolescence. Education today must realize that the social and cultural landscape is changing rapidly. Although there is a strong argument to be made for stability and reliability, it is also unwise to await the inevitable while resisting change. Being adaptable should be an attribute developed in all learners and embraced by education.

... wearing something cooler on my feet this summer.
I've been told to give them a few weeks... at the moment I'm not sure if my feet are breaking them in... or whether they're breaking in my feet!

You thought this area would be glamerous? The cast and crew have very basic facilities on site, not at all show business!

Buenas Tardes!!!
Un gran saludo desde la Ciudad de Grecia, Costa Rica.
Después de un día cansado en el cual realizamos muchisimas actividades como:
Recolección de Basura
Repartimos Información
Un rally ambiental
Pintamos bolsos para enseñar la importancia de dejar de utilizar las bolsas plásticas
Taller: objetos nuevos con materiales reciclables.
Además,
hicimos carteles creativos con el 350 y una manta en la cual las
personas pintaron su mano y escribieron un compromiso con el medio
ambiente.
Nos sentimos satisfechos de nustra actividad por que
pudimos cumplir con nuestro objetivo: hacer que las personas de la
ciudad conocieran de 350 y sean mas conscientes con el medio ambiente.
Tuvimos
la colaboración de Radio 16 (radio local), Canal 5 (canal local) y la
Parroquia Las Mercedes, los cuales estuvieron transmitiendo información
de la actividad y de lo que el movimiento es. También la Tienda Raúl
Vega que fue la que nos regalo los bolsos.
A nuestra actividad
se unieron varios ciclistas que respondieron a nuestro encuentro, igual
que personas que se acercaron para contarnos que en sus hogares
realizaron su propia actividad.
Les adjunto el brochure que
repartimos a la salida de la iglesia que se encuentra en el parque de
la ciudad, podrán ver que además de unirnos al movimiento 350 hicimos
una campaña (365:350) que entregamos a las personas que se encotraban
tambien en los alredores del parque y la cual invita a las personas a
realizar actividades para ayudar a disminuir el cambio climático los
365 días del año.
Y nuestro rally contó con 5 actividades donde
se le habló a los chicos de: Cambio Climático, 350, Agua, 7mo Objetivo
de Desarrollo del Milenio "Garantizar la sostenibilidad del medio
ambiente" y las 4R.
Espero disfruten nuestras fotografías y
se den cuenta cuanto disfrutamos nosotros. Adjunto fotografías de todas
las actividades que hicimos, si pudiera les enviaria todas las que
tomamos.
Gracias, y nos vemos el próximo año. Seguimos en contacto y trabajando por el medio ambiente.

I always have a change jar... and then I count out the change when I need to do laundry or we go get ice cream. I bet coldstone hates me....
In WWII, some folks were branded with a badge of shame. As a species, we can no longer afford such divisiveness. We need to respect one another, to admire the gifts we each bring. We need to make beautiful that which was previously seen as unlovely.

Time to service the Blade as it's been a year since I picked it up. So far oil and oil filter have been changed. Tonight was the air filter using the k&n service kit. New chain will be next then it's MOT time at the end of the month.
