Canada to ban coal, but that won't be enough

Canada has many options to improve their environmental performance. Photo: CC, Rebecca Humann.
Pipelines, renewable biofuels, and infrastructure plans should be examined
The Minister of Environment Catherine McKenna announced on Nov. 21 that Canada will be phasing out the use of coal by 2030. The objective of the plan is to reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions by 30 million tonnes a year by 2030.
While this is definitely a step in the right direction, can Canada succeed in reaching the target set during the Paris Agreement without the cooperation of the U.S.—the second-largest carbon dioxide emitters on the planet?
If the Liberal government is serious about meeting its target with the Paris Agreement, a feat that will only be made harder by President-elect Trump's proposed policies, pipelines—including the Keystone XL, Trans Mountain, and Energy East—are not the way to go.
Instead, the government should be looking to invest in renewable energy for long-term economic growth and environmental sustainability.
For example, renewable biofuels could be used as an alternative as Canada is one of the largest agricultural producers and exporters in the world. Clean Energy Canada, a think thank based from Simon Fraser University, estimates that biofuel will play an important part in reducing transportation-related emissions and will account for 20 per cent of liquid fuels by 2030 and 90 per cent by 2050.
We also need to make sure that the Liberals' $186 billion infrastructure plan spends a third of the budget on green infrastructure, as they promised. After all, the government has a history of spending less on infrastructure than what Parliament allocated. Not only does green infrastructure benefit the environment, but is also could be the backbone of our economy in the future.
International cooperation will also be crucial to really make an impact on climate change. The Liberal government can replicate China's huge cap-and-trade system and the revenue generated from the carbon tax should be invested towards renewable energy.
But how can we be sure that the Liberal government will follow through with their commitment? Government will need the cooperation of the private sector. Economics incentives will ensure that business invest in renewable energy, and the government could also use legislation such as strengthening the Federal Sustainable Development Act.
All in all, dropping coal by 2030 is a good step, but Canada needs to enforce other policies as well to make a significant impact.

Richard Anuszkiewicz was born in Erie, Pennsylvania, USA in 1930. Both his parents were originally Polish but had met in the USA. Anuszkiewicz was interested in art from an early age and this was something that was encouraged by his father.
After attending a series of parish run schools, Richard transferred to Eire Technical High School aged 14 (1944). It was there that his fascination with art and drawing was allowed to develop, as he was able to draw each day for several hours. His exceptional talent was evident even during this time – winning a major artistic award as a senior in 1947.
In 1948, Anuszkiewicz gained a place at the Cleveland Institute of Art where he began to become interested in abstraction and the underlying design process behind creating a work of art.
Anuszkiewicz graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art in 1953 with a Batchelors in Fine Art. By this time he was already receiving formal recognition of his immense artistic talent. During his final year at Cleveland, the National Academy of Design awarded him a Pulitzer Travelling Scholarship. The award gave would have allowed Richard the funding to travel to and study art in a European city, but he instead chose to stay in the USA.
At the time, Josef Albers was the head of the Design Department at Yale University. Anuszkiewicz was fascinated by the work Albers had done with colour, and felt that this element was something that would further enhance his work. He talked his decision over with his tutor at Cleveland and was accepted at Yale, where he studied under Albers, from 1954-55, graduating with a Masters in Fine Art. Interestingly his room-mate at Yale was another highly influential Op Artist, Julian Stanczak.
Albers didn't use a formulaic set of rules in his teaching, instead encouraging his students to look objectively at their work and to work out what was and wasn't happening. Anuszkiewicz learned from Albers about form and colour, the Bauhaus Movement, the color theory of Paul Klee, the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists masters like Cezanne and as he began to appreciate these movements and artists more and more, their influences began to become apparent in his work.
Anuszkiewicz, under the influence of Albers and his teaching, began to abandon the realism of his previous work. "Self-Portrait" (shown above) painted whilst at Yale in 1954 is a good example – painted in vibrant colours, Anuszkiewicz has reduced himself to a flat abstract figure.
At Yale, Anuszkiewicz became fascinated with the current thinking on the Psychology of Perception, reading extensively and keeping up to date on the thinking of the time.
After graduating from Yale, with a view to supplementing his income from art with teaching income, Anuszkiewicz returned to Ohio for a year, where he studied for a Batchelors in Science in Education at Kent State University (1955-56). (He later held visiting teaching positions at Dartmouth College, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Cornell University, and Kent State University).
Whilst at Kent, he was offered his first solo show by the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown. During this time at Kent, he has later said that he began to paint 'seriously' and began to develop the style for which he is known, making extensive use of contrasting colours and form.
After he graduated from Kent State University, Anuszkiewicz worked painting houses with friends for the summer. In September, he quit, rented a flat in Cleveland and started painting for real.
In the Spring of 1957, Anuszkiewicz made the move to New York, taking with him much of the material he had created over the preceding six months. After a short time off travelling in Europe, Anuszkiewicz began the process of taking his work around the New York galleries.
There was some interest in his work, but at the time, the strong colours and hard-edged style were seen as a little bit 'difficult' for most. The breakthrough came from The Contemporaries Gallery in the autumn of 1959. The gallery director of the time, Karl Lunde, had seen some of Richard's work and sought him out. He was offered a solo show at the gallery in early 1960.
That Anuszkiewicz was going to be an important artist became clear in the final week of the show. Towards the end, a representative of the Museum of Modern Art walked in and purchased one of his paintings. Key private collectors rapidly followed suit.
"Fluorescent Complement" – the work purchased by MoMA – was exhibited there later that year alongside a work of the 'father of Op Art', Victor Vasarely. A second show at The Contemporaries Gallery followed in 1961. Museums and Galleries were really beginning to show a lot of interest in Richard Anuszkiewicz's work. The important and influential 1962 "Geometric Abstraction in America" exhibition from the Whitney Museum of American Art featured works by Anuszkiewicz.
He was again exhibited at MoMA's 1963 exhibition 'Americans' where he displayed 5 paintings and received much of the attention from the critics of the time. As a result of the exhibition, Time Magazine ran a feature on him which featured a full page reproduction of 'Plus Reversed' (1960 – shown right) and the brilliant 'Knowledge and Disappearance' (1961). In 1964, Life magazine ran a feature on him in which they called him the 'new wizard of Op'.
The major Op Artists of the time showed their works there, including Bridget Riley and Victor Vasarely. The exhibiton, featured Anuszkiewicz as one of the outstanding and notable American Op artists of the time. Op Art had arrived and so too had Richard Anuszkiewicz. The public loved the exhibition and Op Art inspired designs began to show up in popular culture – Op Art advertising and Op Art fashion and design abounded.
Richard Anuszkiewicz had already been taken under the wing of wealthy clothing manufacturer and art collector Sidney Janis prior to the Responsive Eye in early 1965. Janis was a highly influential gallery owner, known for the quality of the artists he represented, including Josef Albers, Kline, Pollock and Rothko.
Janis quickly put Richard into the gallery's exhibition line-up, giving him a solo show in late 1965. It was there that Anuszkiewicz showed his Sol I and Sol II paintings – the first two of an ongoing series that he still continues today. The show was an enormous success and the paintings almost sold out.
Soon after Janis exhibited his work in the influential and important 'Pop and Op' exhibition alongside notable artists of the time such as Josef Albers, Ellsworth Kelly, Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol.
During the late 1960s and 1970s, Anuszkiewicz's meteroric rise continued.
In 1965 he exhibited at Corcoran Biennial in Washington, DC and was included in American Art Today at the New York World's Fair. In 1966, the Cleveland Museum of Art organised a major retrospective of his work. He was then featured in American Painting Now at the United States Pavilion at Expo 1967 in Montreal. His relationship with the Sidney Janis Gallery continued; Anuszkiewicz had further solo shows at the gallery in 1967, 1969, and 1973. Both the public and the critics loved his work: John Canaday called the 1969 Janis exhibition "dazzling" in the New York Times.
In the late 1960s, Anuszkiewicz started to create sculpture, often taking the form of painted wooden cubes, sometimes on a mirrored base. In the early 1970s, Anuszkiewicz developed his primarily 'square' based painting style to one primarily based on rectangular forms.
Anuszkiewicz continued to be widely exhibited throughout the 1970s and 1980s although his last inclusion in an exhbition at the Janis gallery came in 1975; Janis had moved on to representing the photo-realists.
Over the same period, he developed his use of colour in his 'Spectrals' series, making extensive use of 'simultaneous contrast' – where two colors, side by side, interact with one another to change our perception of them accordingly. He also concentrated on his 'Centered Square' series of works, a good example of which is shown right.
In 1981, in the same year that Riley found inspiration there, Anuszkiewicz visited Egypt and was inspired by the vibrant colour he was confronted with. This inspiration led to his famous "Temple" series of works.
Around the mid-1980s Anuszkiewicz started to produce works in his Translumina series, which saw him starting to work with wood constructions in low relief, often limiting the colours he used to a mere two, primarily black and one other colour.
His work continued to evolve as each year went by. 1990 saw him creating work that had been laser cut from sheets of aluminium or steel painted typically with a single primary colour, or from welded bronze tubing and stainless steel.
In 2000, he created a series dedicated to Mondrian – 'For Mondrian' – made from painted steel.
2011 saw him revert to more traditional media – acrylic on canvas – to complete a series of works based on the Twin Towers.
Richard Anuszkiewicz is alive and well and painting today. His work is still widely exhibited and can be found in galleries and museums around the world.

Figuring prominently into every aspect of America's history is the railroad. Involving ingenious entrepreneurs, armies of workers, and the ultimate conflicts with Native Americans and outlaws, railroad history and tales are yet another fascinating aspect of westward expansion.
Beginning in the 1830s, the nation realized the need to connect the east with the Pacific coast, shortly after the railroads began large-scale operations. The first survey for a transcontinental railroad system was made in 1849-50 by Howard Stansbury, who surveyed a route through the Black Hills and south of Salt Lake City.
Further measures were taken in March of 1853 when Congress approved a survey by the War Department. Seeing the future, George Pullman began building sleeping cars as early as 1858.
But Congress would dally for another four years, debating the route the transcontinental railroad should be built, until finally it approved the passage of the Pacific Railway Act in 1862, authorizing the building of the transcontinental railroad westward from Omaha, Nebraska by the Union Pacific Railroad and eastward from Sacramento, California, by the Central Pacific Railroad. The act further provided loans for the building of the railroad, as well as sections of public land, ultimately resulting in the railroad companies acquiring 33 million acres of free land.
When the Civil War began, the building of the railroad was initially slow due to lack of investors; however, when the war was over, construction began in earnest.
The building of the railway required enormous feats of engineering and labor in the crossing of plains and high mountains as railroad workers suffered during bad winters, desert heat, lack of supplies and Indian attacks.
On May 10, 1869, the two railroads met in Promontory Summit, Utah, joining 1,776 miles in a great ceremony heralded as the "Golden Spike" celebration. It was perhaps the world's first live mass-media event, as the telegraph lines buzzed with the event and photographers snapped hundreds of photos that would quickly appear in newspapers across the globe.
In no time, the railroad accelerated the population of the west, caused wagon trains to become obsolete, increased commerce in the nation, and contributed to the decline of Native Americans.
Railroad passengers first paid as much as $111 for first class from Omaha to Sacramento to $40 for the lowest class.

A large part of the research on business intelligence focused on "weak signals" interpretation or issues related to data overabundance. The way firms differently use data collection mechanisms developed to this end remains understudied. This tends to neglect business intelligence as being the result of several formal and informal processes to which actors may differently pay attention. By referring back to researches relative to the ACAP model, this article examines absorptive capabilities of strategic informations in the wine industry. The qualitative research design is mainly based on 20 semi-directive interviews conducted in the Provence wine industry. Results reveal that these wineries give only little attention to information coming from organisms of coordination. However, they favor information collected through formal and informal relations they maintain in their current activity with other companies of industry. The discussion part enriches the ACAP model by putting forward how the potential absorptive capacity of strategic information by an organisation can be the consequence of its "experience" and "similarity" with other actors of its environment (suppliers, customers, competitors, etc.), rather than the consequence of the integration mechanisms set up by organisms of coordination. In terms of practical contributions, our study also specifies concepts of similarity and experience by integrating them to notions of territorial membership and geographical proximity which appear as supports to the absorption capacity of the information of companies.

Bonnie Raitt will be starting the new year with an impressive new honor the night before the upcoming Grammy Awards. The Recording Academy announced Thursday that she'll receive its Lifetime Achievement Award.
The award celebrates those who "made outstanding contributions of artistic significance to the field of recording," per the press release.
"Wow what a surprise, I'm speechless," 10-time Grammy-winner Raitt says in a statement, reacting to the announcement. "Thank you so much to all those at The Recording Academy for selecting me to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award!"
Bonnie will pick up her trophy at the Special Merit Awards and 64th Annual Grammy Nominees Reception event on January 30, 2022. Also at the event, which was postponed a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, honorees that were previously announced in December 2020 also will be recognized.
They include Talking Heads, rap duo Salt-N-Pepa, hip-hop pioneers Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five, late Tejano star Selena, opera singer Marilyn Horne, and late jazz legend Lionel Hampton.
Meanwhile, Raitt also heads into the new year with plans to release a brand-new album, her 21st overall. Titled Just Like That…, it's due out in April, and will be available for pre-order starting on January 28 at her official website.
Bonnie tells the Recording Academy of her upcoming work, "I'm really aware of how lucky we were to be able to safely come together and record this album last summer… After this particularly tough time, we can't wait to get back on the road to do what we love and have some great new songs to play."
The 64th annual Grammy Awards air January 31 starting at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.

Julien Baker released a new album in 2017, 'Turn Out the Lights'. It was the follow-up to 2015's 'Sprained Ankle', which proved to be Baker's critical breakthrough. Both albums are available now from Matador Records. Since then, she's been selling out venues in America, the UK and Ireland. No shrinking violet, she's definitely one to watch among the young American singer/songwriters active today.
Last week, she reached another important milestone: making her American late night tv debut on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, performing the title track alone with his guitar and with incredible aplomb, I might add. Watch her spellbinding performance of the title track of her 2017 LP below. In terms of her next live appearances, she'll be the main support for Scots Belle and Sebastian on their UK tour in March; those dates are posted here on Facebook.

All UN agencies in Guyana to be housed under one roof
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hon. Dr. Karen Cummings and UNDP Officer in Charge, Guyana, Navindra Persaud
BY the end of this year, if not all, most of the United Nations agencies stationed in Guyana will be housed in one compound, as part of a reform agenda of the UN Development System to "Deliver as One" and to achieve coherence and efficiency in their business operations.BY the end of this year, if not all, most of the United Nations agencies stationed in Guyana will be housed in one compound, as part of a reform agenda of the UN Development System to "Deliver as One" and to achieve coherence and efficiency in their business operations.
This is being made possible by the Government of Guyana, who earlier on Friday, signed a Memorandum of Agreement on the UN House initiative, for continued strengthening of the partnership between the country and the UN agencies, its funds and programmes.
Guyana's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hon. Dr. Karen Cummings, signed on behalf of the government. "We look forward to the continued partnership as development assistance from UN agencies, funds and programmes continue under the Country Implementation Plan as part of the Multi-country Sustainable Development Framework in the Caribbean for 2017-2021," Minister Cummings stated.
Adding that the government and people of Guyana are pleased that the UN House advances the UN Development System reform agenda, "Guyana is fortunate to be one of the four CARICOM countries of the Caribbean in which a UNDP country office is located. We will ensure that the United Nations in Guyana is adequately equipped to carry out its work and to even grow and expand its presence while enhancing its efficiency," the foreign affairs Minister noted.
Through this partnership of a UN House, the government provided a common space for the UN Country Team to work closer together, and this, in turn, will foster an even faster response to national priorities. Initial relocation began on May 2019 and according to local UNDP Officer in Charge, Navindra Persaud, agencies were progressively moving into their new space.
"We would like to thank the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the finalisation of this Memorandum of Agreement. The UN Country Team is grateful to the Government of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana for the provision of the premises. Our thanks also extend to the National Assembly for its role in the budgetary allocations under MoPI to cater for the lease/rental of this as part of the national budget that was approved on 15 December," Persaud stated.
"The signing of the MoA puts our [government's] word into to deed." remarked Minister Cummings, who also noted that Guyana has been fully involved in the design of the new system and the restructuring of the Resident Coordinator and UN Country Team systems in order to better meet the specific needs of CARICOM Member States.

In Colorado, the number of young children exposed to marijuana, mostly through edibles, is up 150 % since 2014, a study found. Reason and The Washington Post argue that the risk remains very small.
A study in rats found that exposure to pot smoke can damage blood vessels.
One in 13 Americans older than 12 have used marijuana in the past month, a new government studyfound. That figure has held steady for about 25-years. It's least popular between Texas and Alabama. (Here's a map.) States where it's less common are more likely to be concerned about marijuana.
A Globe and Mail investigation found that mold and other contaminants are widespread in the Toronto MED supply. Colorado released numerous seized batches after they tested negative for pesticides.
Following a scare, Colorado determined that THC was not in the drinking water in the tiny town of Hugo, Colo.
A bill in Congress that would expand MED research does not include products containing THC or the parents of children with autism in its "Safe Harbor" clause.
In Arizona, a long-anticipated study to test MED on veterans with PTSD will begin seeking patients soon.

Mississippi state Senator Deborah Dawkins: "I think most people want their doctors to help them make their own decisions"
Senator Deborah Dawkins of Pass Christian, Mississippi, for the fourth year in a row, is submitting another proposal to legalize medical marijuana in the Magnolia State.
According to the experts, when used for medicinal purposes, cannabis can be quite useful. And that's why Senator Dawkins is working hard to legalize its medical use in Mississippi, reports Terrance Friday at WLOX.
"I think most people want their doctors to help them make their own decisions," Dawkins said. "And to me, we're taking something away from the patients and their physicians."
A number of studies have shown that some attributes of the cannabis plant can help relieve pain, control nausea, and help with a long list of other ailments. As of now, 16 states and the District of Columbia have already legalized the medical use of marijuana for certain conditions.

Scientists Want To Dig Up Shakespeare To See If He Smoked Pot

Graphic: Wikipedia/Steve Elliott; Idea: Peaceful Soul
Shakespeare: "Why write I still all one, ever the same, And keep invention in a noted weed?" (Damn long-haired hippies.)
Doobie, or not doobie? That is the question. A team of paleontologists wants to dig up William Shakespeare to find out of he used marijuana.
They didn't just come up with this out of thin air; some recent evidence actually suggests that Shakespeare may have gotten high. Now Francis Thackeray, an anthropologist and director of the Institute for Human Evolution at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, has placed a formal request with the Church of England to unearth the Bard, reports David Edwards at The Raw Story.
The playwright is buried under the Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, and the planned analysis is of the "nondestructive" variety, according to Thackeray, reports Alec Liu at FoxNews.com.
"We have incredible techniques," Thackeray said. "We don't intend to move the remains at all." The team instead plans to conduct a forensic analysis using state-of-the-art technology to scan the bones.
April 29 Marks 100th Anniversary Of First Marijuana Prohibition

Interestingly, the 1911 Massachusetts law specifically permitted medicinal use of cannabis with a prescription
Friday marks an unhappy anniversary in hemp history. On April 29, 1911, Massachusetts enacted the first state law making it illegal to sell or possess cannabis without a prescription, becoming the first U.S. state to institute marijuana prohibition.
Violators of the new law were subject to a $100 fine and up to six months in jail, and just being present in the same room with marijuana could get you three months, according to cannabis historian Dale Gieringer of California NORML.
Ironically, marijuana was merely collateral damage of the Massachusetts law, which was aimed primarily at other "hypnotic" drugs such as opium, morphine and heroin. Abuse of opiate painkillers had become a concern among reformers and temperance advocates in the early 20th century, and cannabis was added to the list "for the sake of completeness," since it was also a hypnotic palliative commonly found in pharmacies.
"This incidental decision would turn out to have far-reaching consequences, aptly illustrating the dangers of governmental misjudgment in matters of drug regulation," Gieringer said.
Interestingly, the Massachusetts law specifically permitted medicinal use of cannabis with a prescription; the medical value of "Indian hemp" was widely acknowledged at the time.
"Only in 1937 was medical cannabis suppressed at the insistence of federal narcotics boss Harry Anslinger, whose last-century 'Reefer Madness' policy sadly remains with us today," Gieringer said.

Exclusive Interview: America's Longest Serving Pot Prisoner
By Steve Elliott ~alapoet~ on July 2, 2010 Culture, Products
Photo: Robert Platshorn
Robert Platshorn, the Black Tuna, brought a million pounds of Colombian gold to American shores.
If you were an American pothead in the 1970s, you probably smoked some of Robert Platshorn's weed. His organization brought in tons of fine Colombian when it was considered some of the best pot in the world. And that's the reason Platshorn later became the longest serving marijuana prisoner in U.S. history, doing 29 years inside the federal prison system.
Much of the primo Colombian flooding the U.S. marijuana market in the late 70s could be traced back to the Black Tuna Gang, a major smuggling ring which once brought 500 tons of pot into the United States over a 16-month period.
I remember well the sweet, potent buds of Santa Marta Gold that were available in 1977 and 1978. Possessed of a soaring sativa high and mind-blowing expansion in the lungs, this 'lombo weed became the gold standard of connoisseur pot to a generation of appreciative stoners. To this day, I think of Colombian weed every time I hear Rush or Blue Öyster Cult.


Going through life doing what other people tell you will get old quick. As a child it's just how the world works- you learn from your parents and teachers. But when you reach a certain age, perhaps around 18 or 19, you begin to use what you've leaned about the world to formulate your own plans and ideas. At times it can be hard for both you and those who used to tell you what to do to accept that you are an individual. Sure, there can be sadness associated with growing up, but I believe the overall freedom to take advantage of what the world has to offer in one's own direction far outweighs the nostalgia.
Maybe you're older than the ages I said above and you still feel as if you get told what to do day in and day out. While some of this is possibly unavoidable in rare circumstances, I'd say the majority of us are simply not taking full advantage of our human rights. And when I say human rights I don't mean controversial issues. What I am talking about is every human's right to do what they choose on this Earth. There are so many wildly different opportunities available to people that it would amaze me if someone could not find at least one path they are interested in.
A quick idea to possibly expand your thinking about the world: at any given time you can picture any type of scenario in your head and there is very likely someone in the world who has either done what you're imagining in the past, is doing it in the current moment, or will be doing it in the future. That's pretty crazy if you ask me. But what's even more exciting about this concept is that it is actual proof that you can do it too. If someone else has done it, why can't you? The answer is You Can. And even in the unlikely circumstance that what you want to do hasn't been done by someone before- could you not be the first? At some point everything that has ever happened was done for the first time by someone. It can make this prospect of doing what you choose even more thrilling when you think that you could not only be the first to do it, but also lead the way to inspire others to succeed.
Often times it isn't necessarily an individual's motivation or drive that prevents them from doing what they want, but rather not knowing what exactly to do. You can want something so badly, and be completely willing to do the work it requires to reach that goal, but you just don't know how to get started. Or you know how to begin the process but after awhile it seems unclear which way to go next- how to keep what you've begun growing. But think about this- if it wasn't challenging to do life your own way then there wouldn't be nearly as many people being followers. This is why I encourage you to keep at what you're doing. Even if you aren't sure where to take your goal next, just do something with it. Because at least if you are staying active in the pursuit of your own goals, you're less likely to give up on them completely. This, in my mind, is a much better way to go than slowly giving up because you're afraid the next decision you make on the path to success will be a failure. But even if it does turn out to be a failure you've still succeeded in the much larger goal of life- sticking with what YOU want to do.
I don't believe in the adage that "Even if you fail you can always say you gave it a try." Don't stop trying! Never let the failures you encounter lead you back to a life of following others. Allow your failures to alter your path- not block it off completely. Because in the end even if you "gave it a try" I think you'd have more regret in not trying enough to actually make it work. Go all out on your goals because this is your life and what you want this life to be about is entirely your decision. Face the adversity and be even more prideful to the naysayers when you meet your own definition of success!

I've managed to watch most of it, still haven't watched Day Five again though.
I've watched it twice since, better every time IMHO.
With you on Frobisher, awful.
I voted for Owen, I thought he had a very interesting character arc from being a young doctor to more cynical after losing his fiance and then having his life changed after death. Maybe if they had found a way to restore him to life after that, he would have been a bit less cynical and still worked together with the team. Jack had chosen all the team members for a reason because they had something to offer or they needed to work through their problems through their jobs at Torchwood.
By far Tosh's. Ianto's was very moving, but from where I was at, I did not know Tosh was going to die, so it was a massive shock for myself, whereas I knew about Ianto in advance so I had time to get used to the idea.
I cried a lot when Tosh died as she was such a sweet character who really worked well on the show. I would have loved to have seen more of her, and seen her get tougher and braver.
If these are going to be my last words then you're going to listen. I met the Emperor. And I took the time vortex and poured it into his head and turned it into dust.
Tosh. Without a shadow of a doubt!
Owen for sure! I loved the character so much. It was sad coz I loved his soft side and wanted to see that get explored a little more. And when Tosh said "Because you're breaking my heart" I cried. Ianto's death kinda pissed me off. Coz when CoE ended I sat there thinking "That's it! No more TW! Man!" But RTD always comes through. Great guy. Shame he left DW.
It was between Ianto and Tosh but in the end I had to vote Ianto. I just feel that it was the most emotional death I'd ever seen. The sadist part was seeing him die in Jacks arms and knowing jack would be fine but Ianto couldn't come back.
Old thread, I know. Sue me.
Owen's death has to be a factor in here as well, but as it hadn't really affected me the first time he passed I know it was Tosh's death that drew the response. I had nothing for Ianto and only welled up a little bit over Jack's grandson.
I cried when Owen and Tosh died -- two in one ep, it was kind of intense. And while I didn't cry when Ianto died (though I loved him), that's probably because I was bracing for it. But I think the death of Jack's grandson was the most shocking for me; I was totally unspoiled, and my heart was racing, and I kept thinking, "Jack won't sacrifice his grandson...right?" But he did.
*sighs* ... I feel like I might get a bit of hate but.... It's Ianto. I has to be. For those who know me well this is no surprise.
Tosh and Owen.... I loved them. I can't watch that episode without crying... But with Ianto? I can't stand it... For example, I tried watching CoE after it was on TV and I could only get up to Day 3. I love the Janto moments otherwise the story is just too heavy.
But what I don't understand is why did he have to die?... The excuse that is out there isn't a very good one. He would have sacrificed his grandson if he had to, Ianto didn't need to die, and don't you think in the moment Gwen's and her kid's death would have been stronger? But no... She's Russel's pet.
After Tosh and Owen Ianto was Torchwood. Of course he was the one who replaced them. He also was always there in the beginning. They needed him.
I won't give you hate, I miss Ianto the most!
Oh I dunno about that. He was the one we knew the least about, they could have done a bit?
Gwen... She serves no point really IMO.
I know that he is dead and more than likely won't come back but that doesn't mean I have to accept it. That's how I look at it and I'll continue to support him.
I loved Tosh, but never liked Owen (in fact I often hated him) and while I liked Ianto, I never loved him as much as I loved Tosh. Jack's grandson's death and Tommy's death were also ones that were really sad, but I was far more invested in Tosh's character, so hers affected me more deeply than theirs did.

NOTES: Limited run with resin parts.
The Vampire served with front-line RAF units until 1955 and with the RAuxAF until its disbandment in 1957. The airplane also served with the air forces of Australia, Finland, France, India, New Zealand, Sweden, Switzerland, Mexico, the Dominican Republic and several other countries. 4,400 Vampires of all types including the 2-seat trainers were built, 1,100 of them under license, including 190 built in Australia starting in 1946.
The Vampire has been well-served in 1/72 scale, with a still-good kit released by Heller in the 1970s that can be made up into a nice-looking model with not a lot of effort. In 1/48, the Vampire was badly served by a series of kits from Hobbycraft in the late 1980s and early 1990s that bore only a general planform relationship to the original airplane. Aeroclub had been about to release a very good series of vacuform kits of all the major sub-types just at the point when the Hobbycraft trainwreck came out; these were finally released in 1996, and are still excellent kits that make up into good models for those not afraid of the V-word if you can find them, since they are long out of production.
This Vampire from Classic Airframes is announced as the first of a "Vampire family" that should include the earlier F MK.1 and F Mk.3, as well as the NF Mk.10 and T Mk.11 two-seaters. Given that the current kit includes the extended wingtips of the F Mk.3, that type could be built now if a modeler obtained correct serial numbers for it.
The kit comes on two sprues of injection-molded plastic that contain the main parts of the airframe - fuselage, wings, booms and tail - with the cockpit, wheel wells, and lower fuselage nose done in resin. These parts will make up into a cockpit that looks so nice it's almost a shame to have to paint the interior black.
Some Classic Airframes kits are better than others when it comes to production design, ease of construction, and accuracy. Unfortunately, in my opinion, this kit is rather further down the scale than such recent releases as the Wyvern.
I started with the cockpit, which is one of the most beautiful cast resin cockpits I have seen. Sadly, the cockpit opening is small enough that once installed in the fuselage with the fuselage assembled, one has to look pretty closely to see all this nice detail. The fact that the cockpit is to be painted black doesn't improve things. I do wish that Classic Airframes would have their resin seats designed with molded-in seatbelts. I ended up making an approximation of a Sutton harness from lead foil taken from a wine bottle.
I also found that attaching the exterior lower nose resin part to the rest of the assembled cockpit before assembling all this into the fuselage will guarantee you'll get a good fit when you proceed with full fuselage assembly.
Once I had the cockpit installed in the right fuselage half, I stuffed in as many small fishing weights in the upper nose behind the instrument panel and above the nose wheel as I could. I then assembled the fuselage and left the bottom panel off until I had the whole airframe installed, since it was obvious the weight in the nose was insufficient to get a nose-sitter as it was.
Assembly of the wings and tail is "fiddly" to say the best. All the joints needed filling, and the seams for the rear area of the wing-to-fuselage joint were particularly resisted my attempts to get rid of them. Almost all the engraved detail on the rear fuselage had to be re-scribed after I managed to get rid of the persistent fuselage centerline seam. The tail booms have nothing to insure they are correctly fitted, so you have to eyeball them closely to get them aligned properly. I attached the horizontal stabilizer and then rubber-banded the whole assembly to get a good tight fit. My fears about the heavy-handed engraved detail on the kit were groundless; I had to sand the assembled airframe down so much to get rid of seam and joint lines that the panel lines were the least of the worries.
I then filled the area immediately under the rear of the cockpit floor with more fishing weights. As it turned out even that was not enough. I recommend you put more weight on the back of the cockpit bulkhead too, because in the end when I attached the landing gear it was still a tail-sitter and I was only able to get it to nose sit by sticking a final fish weight in the nose wheel well. Since the distance from main gear to nose is so short with this kit, and the weights are thus just barely in front of the center of balance, it requires much more weight that you expect to get a nose sit.
The really big problem of the model, one that can't really be completely corrected, is the resin air intakes. These are not the right shape, and even after you fiddle with them and re-shape them as I did, the best you can get is "less incorrect." John Adams was very close to releasing his own limited-run injection-molded Vampire when the Classic Airframes kit was announced, and he put the project aside. He has informed me he is checking to see if his intakes w ould fit this kit. If they do he will release them along with his vacuformed canopy as a correction set and I will highly recommend you get it. I threw away the kit-supplied cockpit canopy, since it bears no resemblance to the shape of the Vampire canopy, and replaced it with a vacuformed canopy from Aeroclub that vastly improves the look of the model and allows you to assemble it closed - so it looks good - and still see that nice cockpit.
I had given thought to doing my kit in overall Speed Silver, but a coat of grey primer showed that there were still "hills and valleys" around the wing seams that would be visible under a thin coat of a single color of paint. By this point my enthusiasm level for the project was waning fast, so I decided to do the box art airplane, a Vampire from 112 Squadron in Germany in 1952 in a one-off experimental paint scheme of overall PRU Blue with a disruptive pattern of dark green on the upper surfaces. I used Xtracrylix paints for both colors and applied the camouflage freehand, since all Vampires were camouflaged "in the field." I gave the model a coat of Future and was ready for decals.
I gave the model a coat of Xtracrylix Satin varnish, since this is a good approximation of what a glossy paint scheme looks like "in scale" and after it's been "out in the world" awhile in real life.
I assembled the landing gear and discovered I still had a tail-sitter. Even flattening the main gear as much as possible without losing a realistic look it still teetered. As I said above, this was solved with a fish weight in the nose wheel well that can't be seen unless the model is turned over.
Since the Aeroclub vacuform Vampire is no longer available, this Classic Airframes kit is the only game in town. Unfortunately, its accuracy problems with the canopy and the intakes result in a model that is at best - and after much work - only an approximation of the Vampire. Get the Aeroclub canopy for certain and I hope John Adams releases corrected intakes for this kit. With those two items, it could be improved to the point I would not be saying that - out of the box - it is a disappointment.

The best thing to have happened to Nigeria in her 19 years of democratic dispensation is the proclamation of June 12 as a public holiday by President Muhammadu Buhari, to commemorate Chief MKO Abiola for the supreme price he and many other Nigerians paid in the struggle to entrench democracy and civil rule as a norm in our country.
The election that was generally acclaimed to be the freest and fairest in Nigeria's contemporary history was annulled by the military regime. With nostalgia, one recalls that this particular election survived all the barriers of our fault lines as a nation. The dimension of the conspiracy against the June 12, 1993 presidential election was greater than the self-styled evil genius, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, whose military regime "arrested" the result and thereby created a political impasse unprecedented in our political history.
Therefore, the declaration is highly commendable not only because it has come as a response to the yearnings of a majority of Nigerians but also because it is a monumental step to heal the wounds of injustice and historical perfidy inflicted on the Nigerian masses. Successive administrations since 1999 would never touch the June 12 debacle with the longest stick, for reasons best known to them. Not even a minute silence was ever observed to honour the martyrs of the struggle! Most appalling and disgusting was the unmerited recognition that was accorded the man who received the stolen mandate, Chief Ernest Shonekan, freely given by Nigerians to Chief Abiola by accommodating him in the National Council of State, despite a valid court ruling declaring his administration illegal!
With this declaration, President Buhari has scored another point to prove himself as a true born-again democrat; one with with a sense of justice to correct the perverted history of Nigeria's Republics by recognising the winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election. By this deft political move, Buhari has removed the odious tag of "ill-fated" usually associated with Nigeria's Third Republic by scholars of politics and history.
Ipso facto, it has sent the right signals to the conspirators against the historic (June 12, 1993) election that it is time for them to repent in the interest of national integration. They should seek the face of God for their perfidious act rather than clutch at the straws of legal or constitutional technicalities to discount the value of President Buhari's landmark decision. The President's declaration has also laid to rest the notion by some people who tried to reduce the horizon of the June 12 election to only a South-West affair despite the overwhelming evidence of its national significance.
In this regard, it would not be out of place to advise President Buhari to change the national holiday from "Democracy Day" to MKO Abiola Day, to be in accord with international best practices. In the US, for instance, Columbus Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day are celebrated. The first is to honour the man who "discovered" America while the latter was to celebrate the civil rights activist against racism. In addition, Mandela Day is celebrated in South Africa and is concurrently recognised by the United Nations in honour of Nelson Mandela's struggle against apartheid. The Muslim and Christian world celebrate the birthday of the two Holy Prophets in recognition of their contributions to the development of religion. I submit that gazetting Democracy Day as MKO Abiola Day in our statutes is more symbolic than inscribing his name on any of our currency or naming a university after him. By this, we would have complied with the strand in our National Anthem that 'The Labour of Our Heroes Past Shall Never Be in Vain', thereby inculcating the spirit of patriotism in Nigerians, especially the not-too-young-to-run generation!
Also, this is a step towards getting the Nigerian State on the right path to greatness. There cannot be peace in the absence of justice while development takes flight in a society without peace. President Buhari should move a step further to earn the additional glory of being the Nigerian leader to restructure the polity. Advocacy for restructuring has become a recurring decimal as a by-product of "June 12" annulment. It is time to sum up the political will and patriotism to address it.

13 men sentenced for lynching of Christian couple
The anti-terrorist court in Pakistan has sentenced five men involved in the murders of Shama Bibi and Shezad Masih, the Christian couple burnt alive in a brick kiln in 2014.
On 23 November, five men were sentenced to death and fined 200 000 rupees (approximately £1538) each, while a further eight men were each sentenced to two years imprisonment.
The sentence comes two years on from the attack on 4 November in which pregnant mother Shama Bibi and her husband Shezad Masih were lynched and burned to death in a brick kiln in the village of Kot Radha Kishan, close to the industrial city of Kasur in Punjab province. The couple was killed by a mob incited to violence by a false blasphemy accusation against Shama, who was accused of burning pages of the Qur'an.
On 16 April, Yousaf Gujjar, the owner of the brick kiln and one of the main suspects in the case, was released on bail by the anti-terrorist court. He was charged with inciting a prayer leader to declare, over the loudspeaker of a mosque, that Shama and Shezad were guilty of blasphemy. The judge also strongly criticised the police for negligence in failing to stop the mob attack on the couple.
The blasphemy laws in Pakistan, codified in sections 295 A-C of the Pakistan Penal Code, continue to be widely abused and false blasphemy accusations are often used to settle personal scores and resolve disputes over money, property and business rivalries. While the majority of accusations are registered against Muslims, religious minorities are disproportionately affected by accusations, which put the individual, their family and community at risk of violence.
In an interview with Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) in 2015, Mukhtar Masih, Shama's father, said he was committed to getting justice in the case and would not back down despite receiving threats from multiple sources. On receiving news of the sentence he told CSW, "I am not satisfied with this verdict. It is unjust because from the 103 accused only 13 have been punished; five of them have been sentenced to death along with a fine of Rs 200,000, and eight others have been imprisoned for two years each. From those who have been freed, many were directly involved in this brutal crime and should have also been punished. I appeal to everyone to pray for us so that we may attain justice".
CSW's Chief Executive Mervyn Thomas said, "We welcome the conviction of those responsible for ther deaths of Shama and Shezad Masih, though CSW does not endorse the death penalty in any circumstance and we note that others who may have had a hand in this crime have not been charged. We urge the government of Pakistan to fulfil its commitment to review the blasphemy laws, and to ensure that procedural amendments are implemented with a view to minimising their abuse and as a step towards full repeal. It is imperative that the government of Pakistan and law enforcement agencies provide adequate security measures and protection for those accused of blasphemy while investigations take place. We continue to call on Pakistan to honour its commitments both in its own constitution and under international law to ensure that justice and equality before the law are guaranteed to all citizens, regardless of their religion or belief."

Celebrating America's Freedom with Joy and Thankfulness
Dr. Anne Bradley
Twitter Facebook LinkedIn Email Subscribe Print
As we celebrate the Fourth of July, we reflect on what it means to, in fact, celebrate. According to Webster's dictionary (1828 ed.), a celebration incorporates, among other nuances, a setting apart by "marks of joy or respect" of an event or distinction worth honoring.
The Fourth of July is a celebration of the American experiment, but it has not always been characterized by cookouts and fireworks.
242 years ago, a group of determined group of patriots gathered in Philadelphia to sign a document. The months preceding the meeting had been filled with turmoil, but the challenges these American founders faced only strengthened them in their resolve. And they did not take this action lightly; it could have easily jeopardized their lives.
What motivated them to take such a risk?
Freedom—and Flourishing, Too
God has placed upon the hearts of all people the call to flourish—Christians or not. We are all made in the image of God, the ultimate Creator, and we are all called to use the gifts, talents, and resources given us to create more beautiful and productive things.
As Hugh Whelchel explains:
The work we do in the here and now is important to God and serves as a signpost to point others to the New City, the City of God, where all of God's children will live one day in perfect shalom. Until then our calling is to work for the shalom of this present world to the glory of God, by the grace of God, reweaving the unraveled fabric of our broken world.
The founders who gathered to sign the Declaration of Independence shared a common desire to pursue their faith and their talents as they felt called in the pursuit of an idea that they can and should be able to live without tyranny. Although the founders weren't all Christians, the act of fleeing persecution and envisioning a better state demonstrates the biblical characteristics of perseverance and creativity.
Many faced religious, economic, or political oppression in Europe. Despite—or because of—these hardships, they fought to preserve the freedom to flourish.
Remembering with Joy and Thankfulness
The founders were not perfect and neither were their efforts. They did, however, recognize that because men and women are not angels, they must ensure limited government. They were committed to the type of society that protects those freedoms that allow us to flourish. By rejecting the British monarchy and setting forth on an experiment steeped in liberty, Americans have experienced amazing opportunity.
The society created by the founders' courageous actions has allowed individuals to benefit themselves and others through markets by using their gifts, talents, and resources to create value in a world of scarcity. This is an important component of flourishing.
As we celebrate this Fourth of July, let us celebrate fully, with joy and respect, the inestimable blessings we continue to experience due to the actions of a small but dedicated group 242 years ago.
