Another day, another story about the wolf. I'm pretty fed up about the whole thing by now, but that doesn't help. A hunter in the forest here at Ormsta got scared when the wolf came too close. He had to call in his friends and the four of them then walked away from the area with the wolf following them closely. There's a Facebook group listing all wolf observations and a lot of people seems really scared of the animal. One local politician has said publicly that she wants the wolf to be put down. So far it has killed a few lambs and one cat. I have told my cat to be careful when she's out and about but she didn't seem too worried. The wolf in question is equipped with a GPS device and every 72 hours it sends info back to Norway. Some people now say that there's in fact two wolfs running around eager to kill and eat their babies, but I'm not convinced about that yet. But I did see a report over the weekend that the wolf had been spotted near a farm with cattle and that it had closed in on the cows.

Area I’s first-ever Girl Scouts ready to serve, learn, giggle
By Franklin Fisher

CAMP RED CLOUD, SOUTH KOREA – They’re new, they’re here, they’re eager to learn and serve, they’re Area I’s first-ever Girl Scout troop, Troop 512 of the Girl Scouts of America Overseas.
They only just started meeting this January, and so far they’re few – 10 girls ages 7 to 12, and two Girl Scout leaders, both of whom are Area I Army spouses.
It’s a “multi-level” troop that accommodates Brownies, Juniors and Cadettes.
They meet twice a month at the Casey Elementary School, where all the girls happen to be students.
In coming weeks and months Troop 512 will be doing all sorts of things that Girl Scouts do + holding meetings, taking trips, going camping, making friends and spending time with the Korean Girl Scouts, learning teamwork. Lots of giggling too, probably.
And then, of course, there’s that signature Girl Scout classic, the selling of cookies.
And when it comes to that, there’s no telling what heights the girls of Troop 512 will scale, judging by their success selling cookies this past season, January 13 – February 24.
The girls – there were only eight active at the time – managed to sell a hard-driving 3,800 boxes of cookies. And that was strictly inside Area I installations, those of the Casey Enclave in Dongducheon and at Camp Red Cloud in Uijeongbu.
That works out to 475 boxes per girl, well above the 100 to 200 boxes a Girl Scout in the States typically sells during the cookie season, said Laura Jones, who along with Shawna Garrett serves as scout leader for Troop 512.
“The girls worked hard, we’re very proud of them,” said Garrett.
“With our one little troop, we saturated Camp Casey,” she said. “They’re so tired of Girl Scout cookies here it’s not even funny.”
The scouts met with unstinting support and encouragement from the Area I community, including commissaries, Exchanges and military units, and from individuals who either bought cookies or donated money to support the troop, Jones and Garrett said.
“The most important thing is how fantastic Area I h+++as been,” said Garrett. “We had as much people offering to help us as we could ever possibly hope for.”
For Courtney Garrett, 11, a 6th-grader, cookie-selling is one of her favorite Girl Scout activities so far.
“It’s fun because like we get to talk to random people and like, make them laugh, even though you don’t know them.
“And it’s kind of like you got a good feeling, ‘cause you made someone’s day by giving them cookies that they can only get once and year and stuff.”
Her fellow-scout Kaylee Jones, 10, a fourth-grader, is looking forward to chances to “learn things” through upcoming trips like one they’ll be making to an aquarium.
“We get to learn about the sea and the animals that live there,” she said. “I just really like to see the animals and the fish and stuff.”
But she also got a kick out of cookie sales.
“It’s just really fun, like, trying to make cheers and chants,” she said. “What we did was we were acting like we were cheerleaders and then said ‘Girl Scout Cookies inside, $3.50 a box or 5,000 won.’”
Having its first-ever Girl Scout troop is another milestone in the transformation of Area I into a place where Soldiers served accompanied by their families, said Col. Hank Dodge, commander, U.S. Army Garrison Red Cloud and Area I.
“We think it’s a great thing because it shows the progress that we’ve made in a very short time,” said Dodge.
Within the past year-and-a-half to two years, he said, Area I has gone from having only 62 slots for command-sponsored families to more than 3,500 slots.
But it’s also good for the girls, he said.
“It contributes to the life of the children,” said Dodge. “It teaches them teamwork, it teaches them discipline, it teaches them respect for one another. And then it teaches them to serve not only themselves but to serve each other and to serve the community.”

I've been after a shot of the crossing at Shibuya for a while. I went there last week to try and scout a good vantage point for the future after I retire my P&S.

Chum was taking Scout the spaniel for some exercise when I saw her, so we got to chat briefly from a couple of metres apart and watch young Scout chasing her ball, sitting and pretending to be good to get a treat, and occassionally trying to get up a tree (I think she thinks she is part squirrel, despite evidence to the contrary)
