Out Of The Mouths Of Babes By Kelli Ohrtman It is both beautiful and sad that kids are often so much more aware than we are. This weekend, my aunt and two yound cousins (ages seven and eleven) came to visit. My aunt asked what exactly my job is. So often when I tell people that my job is a puppy mill campaign specialist, they ask “what’s a puppy mill?” It kills me to hear that because my entire job is devoted to educating people about where pet store puppies come from. When I come across someone who isn’t aware of “my” issue, I feel that I’ve fallen short. Or rather, all of us in animal welfare have fallen short—right there in front of me is someone whom we haven’t reached.  read more » ...

So my eight-year-old son tells me he has a great title for my next book. "What is it?" I ask him. "The Dead." Now is probably not the time to tell him about the James Joyce story — you know, the one with Gretta Conroy and the late Michael Furey and the snow falling faintly upon all the [...] ...

Update, Aug. 1, 10 a.m.: Well, Manny was traded in a three-team deal after all, but he went to the Los Angeles Dodgers instead of Florida. The Dodgers actually have money to spend on him, while the Marlins really didn’t. Now Manny will play for former Yankees manager Joe Torre. How ironic is that? ———————- (original post follows) Wanna [...] ...

Sure the Illinois River is polluted. Sure we’ve got way too much farm runoff and nitrogen surging through our streams here in the Prairie State. But at least we don’t see fish with two Mouths, as some youngsters did recently in Alberta, Canada. Read on to learn more about a fish that Dr. Seuss would have loved. Mutated fish caught in lake downstream of Alberta’s oilsands FORT CHIPEWYAN, Alta. — Information about a mutated fish caught downstream from Alberta’s oilsands region will be sent to a joint government-industry group that monitors the health of rivers and lakes. The 2.5-kilogram goldeye caught last week in Lake Athabasca has two Mouths, one beneath the other. Two boys pointed the deformed fish out to Stuart Macmillan, Parks Canada’s manager of resource conservation at Wood Buffalo National Park, who studied it before handing it over to the Mikesew First Nation. “We had just pulled up to the dock and some kids came over and said, ‘Hey, we’ve got a fish over here with two Mouths,” Macmillan said Tuesday. “It was really unusual. The fish has an obvious abnormality. I had never seen anything like that myself before. I can’t speculate on what might have caused it.” Macmillan said Parks Canada has not tested the fish, which was caught outside the park boundary, but he will forward a report on the mutation to the Regional Aquatics Monitoring Program in Alberta. RAMP includes Alberta Environment, the federal Department of Fisheries and ...

The following is a not entirely accurate introduction to John Cage's thought: In order to even begin to understand the music of John Cage, it is necessary to examine some of his most important philosophies and ideas whether you agree with them or not. First of all is his use of silence. Cage considers silence a very integral part of a piece of music, given equal important with the sounded notes. And in conjunction with this I would like to remind you that there is no such thing as total silence, except in a vaccuum; that wherever there are people or any life at all, there is some kind of sound. Cage therefore never uses in his pieces absolute silence, but instead, the varieties of sound such as those caused by nature or traffic, which ordinarily go unnoticed, and aren't usually regarded as music. Second, and perhaps harder to accept, is Cage's use of noise, or, quote, "unmusical sounds," in his compositions. He does not limit his pieces to sounds produced by conventional instruments. Instead he expands the definition of music, using such sounds as the tinkling of glasses, laughing, and even radios, as elements of composition. Thus his definition of music is the art of music, and not just the art of combining instruments. Third is Cage's conviction that music should change, that it should provide the listener with a different experience every time he hears it. Because of this he has introduced the element of chance into his music, allow ...
