First day after the swarm introduction the night before
I don't know where their last home was, though I do know it was somewhere in the northern suburbs of Melbourne.
They awoke to a warm humid day in country North Eastern Victoria after their 4 & 1/2 hour ordeal on the back of my motorbike.
This is their new home, I hope they like it.

Hello Aurore and 350.org,

Mark D'Arcy, Council of Canadians - Fredericton Chapter
Fredericton, New Brunswick
*Justin Trudeau face the "Whales in the Room" at his campaign stop in
Fredericton, New Brunswick *
FREDERICTON, SEPTEMBER 8, 2015 - Citizens held a silent rally in downtown
Fredericton outside the Liberal Party campaign barbeque attended by Liberal
Leader Justin Trudeau, making a very visible call for action on climate
change. Using their North Atlantic Right Whale "No Energy East" signs, the
Fredericton chapter of the Council of Canadians made quite a splash.
Although several Liberal supporters tried to block the whales and climate
change signs, the large crowd and Justin Trudeau could not help but see the
elephant in the room.
Our political leaders need to address climate change. Fredericton has
already experienced more severe weather of climate change, most
notably Post-Tropical
Storm Arthur in July 5, 2014 when the city suffered widespread damage with
the loss of over 5000 trees from an unusually severe summer storm with
gusts approaching 100 km/hr.
Citizens had the copy of two reports which they handed out to Justin
Trudeau’s campaign team. One was the scientific paper from the Nature
journal that states that 85% of Canada’s tar sands, among other fossil fuel
reserves in the world, needs to stay in the ground in order to tackle
climate change. The other was the just-released report by Citicorp, the
3rd largest bank in the United Nations. Citicorp makes the conclusion that
the world economy must transition away from fossil fuels, and with the low
price of oil, this would actually be CHEAPER, rather than maintaining the
status quo of our carbon-based economy.

I am grateful, proud and excited that our country voted in Barack Obama as our 44th president. As waves rush in to wash away the marks on a beach to make things fresh and new once again, I am filled with hope. I am hopeful that we are charging ahead at tackling the many troubles that face our nation and the greater world with him at the helm in Washington.
Not everyone will agree with the wisdom of all of the policies and promises he has made to us. For this reason we have to be willing to listen to each other and include everyone in the discussion. The solutions to the problems our nation faces will challenge all of us. For this reason we need to hope together and work together.
I believe Obama embodies the virtue of hope in the face of cynicism and fear, the virtues of humility and a willingness to listen in the face of uncertainty, and the virtue of hard work in the face of a mountain of trouble. Today, more than any other time in my life, I am filled with more hope and excitement for what our country can be under his leadership. I am equally excited for and hopeful of the things we can accomplish together through our collective willingness to be a part of the solution. I believe voting this man into office was our first step. I am proud of us.
I know that not all of us agree that voting in Obama was the right decision for this country, but I know that most of us will have a difficult time disagreeing with his message of hope, unity, and sacrifice while we strive toward a brighter future.
Below are some great quotes from Obama's acceptance speech. If you did not see the speech I encourage you to check out the full video HERE.
"The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in one term. But, America, I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you, we as a people will get there."
"There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president. And we know the government can't solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And, above all, I will ask you to join in the work of remaking this nation, the only way it's been done in America for 221 years -- block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand."
"This victory alone is not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were. It can't happen without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice.
So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other."
"As Lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, we are not enemies but friends. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection."
"And to those Americans whose support I have yet to earn, I may not have won your vote tonight, but I hear your voices. I need your help. And I will be your president, too."
"This is our time, to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth, that, out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope. And where we are met with cynicism and doubts and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: Yes, we can."
Behold the Art Float for Social Change! Our unique parade float features Mother Earth and a circle of waving hands, spinning on a carousel of art pulled by the pataphysical dragon Quetzy. We presented the Art Float to thousands of participants at the colorful Fairfax Festival Parade on June 9, 2018. Photo by Fabrice Florin.
The Art Float was created by Fabrice Florin, Geo Monley and over a hundred volunteers at Tam Makers, with the gracious support of Good Earth, MVCAN, Pataphysical Studios, Tam High School and the Youth Poster Contest. Activists Greg Brockbank and the Freedom Singers stood on the float podium and led us into song with classics like ‘This Land is Your Land’. They took turns with local musicians Sheri Cooper and Clancy Bounds, who inspired us with their heartfelt songs for a better world. We hope to engage more people to participate in democracy -- and we invite you all to vote, speak up -- and be the change!
Thanks to all our friends and neighbors who made this project possible! We are particularly grateful to our wonderful event crew, including Derek Bacchus, Joey Burnett, Phyllis Florin and Marilyn Price, as well as videographer Kim Spencer, photographers Dana Dworin and Grace Severtson. For this event, we had the privilege of marching with like-minded partners: the Climate Action Coalition carried a large white crane held by members of 350Marin, Marin Clean Energy, Sustainable Fairfax, Drawdown Marin, Sierra Club Marin and Mamas on Fire. And peace activist Jes Richardson closed our procession with his GandhiMobile. Special thanks as well to Cynthia Briggs and the gracious organizers of the Fairfax Festival Parade.
We’ll present the Art Float again at the Fourth of July Parade in Corte Madera -- and throughout California in fall 2018, to help get out the vote for our next elections. Learn more here: www.tammakers.org/art-float/
This is one of the popular performances in which the actor constantly changes his face image in front of the audience with a flip of a second.
"Mudanças. Nós não gostamos delas. Nós a tememos. No entanto, não conseguimos evitá-las. Ou nos adaptamos às mudanças, ou somos deixados para trás. Crescer é doloroso. Qualquer um que te disser que não, está mentindo. Mas aqui vai a verdade: às vezes, quanto mais as coisas mudam, mais elas permanecem as mesmas. E às vezes mudar é bom. Às vezes mudar é tudo."
Novo ano e grandes mudanças já acontecendo. Boa sorte pra mim e um 2011 de sucesso a todos!

Guard Changing at Buck Hice.

Changing seasons, changing oil - today was (hopefully) the final lawnmowing followed by changing the oil in the mower and mothballing it for next year, followed by changing the oil in the snowblower - I didn’t last spring - and getting it ready for the approaching winter.
A sixpenny bit turned up in my change the other day. We used to call them "tanners" and are now equivalent to 2 and half pence. In 1950 it would be worth about a million pounds in todays money. This coin could buy you a round trip on the Titanic plus a ride on the tram and a bag of chips plus the bus fare home AND buy shares in major shares in major corporations. The other coin on the left is a 5p . Worth a SHILLING in old money. There would be 20 shillings in a pound and therefore 40 sixpences. It makes sense. You had to be there.
I watched you change
Into a fly
I looked away
You were on fire
I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change

Scotland will become one of the first countries to achieve a 100% reduction in carbon emissions, Climate Change Secretary Roseanna Cunningham has said.
She announced plans on a visit to Craiglockhart Primary School in Edinburgh where she met P3-7 eco pupils and heard about their work to reduce emissions.
The new Climate Change Bill will immediately set a target of a 90% reduction by 2050, which the UK Committee on Climate Change (UK CCC) states is currently “at the limit of feasibility.” The draft Bill sets out that the Scottish Government intends to go further still and achieve a 100% reduction in emissions, known as ‘net-zero’, as soon as possible.

This origami face changer expresses three different states of eyes and mouth. An interesting thing is you can also mix these states.
