Laurie HamelinAPTN NewsChrystal Sparrow is an artist, but not just any artist.She’s a Coast Salish carver, which for a woman isn’t common.“There’s still that stereotype with men who are like ‘did you carve that or did your brother carve that for you?’ No I carved it and yes I use a chainsaw and yes I use power tools,” Sparrow says while laughing.(Chrystal Sparrow’s late father, Irving Sparrow. Photo courtesy: Chrystal Sparrow)Chrystal’s late father was a master carver who saw her talent as a child.“I am very proud to be a Coast Salish artist and more importantly that I was taught to be a Coast Salish artist,” says Sparrow. “I am third generation and my father, Irving Sparrow had decided when I was very young that I would become a female Coast Salish carver.“And I had the privilege of learning first hand his experience through him carving in our kitchen, him talking about art and stories he heard from elders.”(Musqueam artist Chrystal Sparrow taken in her A-frame studio residency. Photo by Laurie Hamelin/APTN)Sparrow has had an exciting year.She is finishing up her last week as the City of Vancouver’s inaugural artist chosen for their A-Frame Activation program in Stanley Park.The old wooden A-frame fieldhouse by Second Beach is her studio.The goal is for artists from either Musqueam, Squamish or Tsleil-Waututh Nations to engage the community on their unceded traditional territory.“This art residency has been a really good experience,” says Sparrow. “I have had visitors come who are non First Nations and who are First Nations and it’s really been an opportunity to share my work and my views as a Coast Salish artist.“But also it’s really been an opportunity to have conversations around what reconciliation is and more importantly awkward conversations around racism, around not knowing Coast Salish people were here or knowing little about Coast Salish people.”(Welcoming Figure carved by Chrystal and Christopher Sparrow. Photo by Laurie Hamelin/APTN)Sparrow also took part in carving one of three cedar poles outside the Vancouver school district’s education centre.It was unveiled on National Indigenous Peoples Day.Sparrow teamed up with her younger brother, Christopher Sparrow.He’s also a carver.Chrystal chose to carve a female welcoming figure in honour of her Coast Salish background.“The female for me was such an important way to represent Coast Salish people and women like myself who play such an important role in our communities and our culture,” says Sparrow. “But also non First Nations women as a way to build a relationship, as a way to honour that we are all women and we are all important.“And I have been told when people see her that she is such a calm presence, that there is a wisdom there and that is so neat to hear that.”(Sparrow and her brother Christopher teamed up to carve Welcoming Figure, one of three totem poles unveiled on National Indigenous Peoples Day. Photo: Chrystal Sparrow)Chrystal says the combination of her female figure and her brother’s killer whale is very powerful.“There’s this warrior represented in the killer whale and there is this warrior woman-like figure that is embodying this strength, this energy, it feels alive,” says Chrystal. “When I see her I feel this presence about her.“I feel like we’re connected and that she’s watching me.”Sparrow is proud of her achievements and takes her art very seriously.“I have this obligation, I have this opportunity to share my work,” she says. “Not only is it being seen as something important like house figures or panels or spindle whorls, but that it is a part of history, it’s living, it’s breathing. I am really honored to have a really important role in my community and that is being a Coast Salish artist.“I am very proud of that.”Sparrow’s next goal is to start her masters degree in expressive arts therapy in Switzerland.lhamelin@aptn.ca
Greater Noida: Gautam Buddh Nagar police, on Tuesday, arrested two more persons who were accused of thrashing a 25-years-old woman, working at a unisex salon in Greater Noida. The woman was allegedly thrashed by a group of men, including the owner of salon, after she demanded her salary.According to police, the arrested persons were identified as Sohail, a native of sector 12 area of Noida and Shera, a native of Hapur. Police have already arrested the owner of Salon, Wasim, on Monday. Arvind Kumar Pathak, Station House Officer, of Knowledge Park police station told Millennium Post that Sohail is the real brother of salon owner Wasim while Shera works at the salon. “Following the incident, police had registered an FIR against unknown persons on the basis of complaint received from the victim. Police identified the accused in the case through the video of incident which was shot by one of the onlookers. The two accused who were nabbed by police on Tuesday were arrested from Ishaan college cut in Greater Noida,” said Pathak. The officer further said that one more accused had also been seen thrashing the woman and police are making efforts to nab him as well. “Police have arrested three persons in the case while the fourth accused is absconding and we are making efforts to trace him as well. Meanwhile, the group of men who were seen thrashing the woman in the video include the owner of salon, Wasim, who thrashed the girl using stick and dragged her with hairs,” added Pathak. The incident occurred on Saturday morning in Kaushalya residency area of Knowledge park. The victim, a resident of Phase-II area of Noida, who had been working at Venus Unisex salon from past the two months was brutally thrashed in front of a crowd while a video of the whole incident was captured by an onlooker which went viral.
25 September 2009The success of the climate change negotiations in Copenhagen later this year will best be measured by how well any final deal protects small island States, the countries that are most vulnerable to global warming, their leaders told the General Assembly’s high-level debate today. The leaders of archipelagos in the South Pacific, the Caribbean and off the coast of Africa warned that the countries’ very existence may be at stake if urgent measures are not introduced to slash greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to rising global temperatures. “We wait with bated breaths and hope that humanity will show itself worthy of this planet and that nations will have the political will and integrity of leadership to solve the most confounding challenge of our era,” said Baldwin Spencer, Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda.Mr. Spencer told the third day of the annual General Debate that small island countries are profoundly disappointed by the lack of action to protect these countries and their peoples, culture, land and ecosystems, given their extreme vulnerability.Earlier this week Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon convened a climate change summit that brought together dozens of heads of State and government to try to build momentum ahead of the negotiations in December in the Danish capital, where the world’s nations will try to agree on a pact to reduce emissions when the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol ends in 2012. Emanuel Mori, President of the Federated States of Micronesia, said Mr. Ban’s summit had brought more attention to the issue at a critical time before Copenhagen, but he warned that time is already running out.“What if the meltings from the polar ice sheets and glaciers reach their irreversible tipping point?” Mr. Mori asked. “The outcome is crystal clear: Micronesia and all low-lying islands will disappear. But the effects will go much further, endangering coastal cities and communities all over the world, including Manhattan.”Mr. Mori urged the introduction, through the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), of a series of rapid mitigation strategies to try to lessen the impact as soon as possible.Dominica’s President Nicholas Liverpool called on other countries to allow the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) to have a greater say at the negotiating table on climate change given they are on the frontline.“We are contributing to a solution to the effects of climate change by pursuing measures at the national level to promote energy efficiency, reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, and to develop our geothermal potential for national energy needs, as well as for possible export of clean energy to our neighbours,” he said.Anote Tong, President of Kiribati, described climate change as the greatest moral challenge of the era.“We simply cannot afford the consequences of inaction. The people of my country are already feeling the impacts of climate change, which will only worsen with time.”Mr. Tong said the situation was already so dire that Kiribati had to be pragmatic about adaptation strategies for its people.“It is our overwhelming desire to maintain our homeland and our sovereignty. However, with the inevitable decline in the ability of our islands to support life, let alone increasing populations, due to rising sea levels, we must also provide opportunities for those of our people who wish to migrate to do so on merit and with dignity.”Speaking yesterday, Sao Tome and Principe’s President Fradique de Menezes warned that rising sea levels as a result of climate change were already causing serious coastal erosion in his country.“Time is no longer on our side, but has become our unforgiving judge,” he said. “There is no time for unfounded justifications justifying non-fulfilment of the Kyoto Protocol. We cannot continue evading these essential environmental issues that are not a question of developing countries against developed ones. We need urgent measures which are global and concrete to save us from this crisis.”Marshall Islands’ President Litokwa Tomeing called on the wealthiest nations to “consider the implicit moral obligation that comes with their privileged and affluent status” and to agree to measures that may disturb some of the benefits that come with living in wealthy, industrialized societies.“We appeal to you to be as unrestrained as the wind and set the limit of increase in global average temperature beyond pre-industrial period at a level to ensure our survival,” Mr. Tomeing said.“We appeal to you to be fair-minded and to act with determination to reduce global emissions by at least 85 per cent by 2050 from 1990 levels. We appeal to you to ensure that global emissions peak no later than 2015.”In his address to the Assembly today, Vanuatu’s Prime Minister Edward Natapei underscored the security implications wrought by climate change.Global warming, he told the Assembly, is already “affecting the livelihoods of our people as the international community struggles to come to terms with the idea that climate change poses a real threat to the future survival of mankind.”Fredrick Fono, Deputy Prime Minister of the Solomon Islands, proposed that mitigation measures against climate change should include the rehabilitation of forests, given that deforestation contributes to about 20 per cent of greenhouse gas emissions.“My country is currently carrying out an inventory of its forests and intends to participate in the carbon market,” Mr. Fono said. “We also hope multilateral financial mechanisms will become available to the most vulnerable in ensuring appropriate technology transfer in renewable energy receives the attention it deserves.”
The Prime Minister said that the Chief Prelates have advised temples in the respective areas to hold religious observances for Vesak and decide on any other event after having talks with the respective security agencies. Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe discussed security arrangements for the upcoming Vesak festival when he met the Chief Prelates (Mahanayaka theros) in Kandy today.Speaking to reporters after the meeting, the Prime Minister said that the Chief Prelates will decide on events to have during Vesak based on the security situation at the time. The Prime Minister said that he also thanked the Chief Prelates for taking steps to ensure peace was maintained after the Easter Sunday attacks. (Colombo Gazette)

Damien Hirst with Mother and Child DividedCredit: Damien Hirst Asked about the inspiration, West said: “We had a lot of people in mind. A lot of the interview we filmed [during a scene in the gallery] was taken from various interviews with great international artists who we looked at in great detail.” “I think they’re pretty scary, these guys, the incredibly knowledgeable artists who cannot be disputed because they’re talking about art, which is something there’s no definite answer to.”So I’d be quite scared of meeting someone like that. Also, because they’re so powerful and so rich.”The film also stars Elisabeth Moss as a journalist covering the world of contemporary art, and a half-bonobo ape who appears in her apartment without explanation.Bang, who also acted in the scenes, described how the animal came with a long list of instructions on how to behave, including not to look it in the eye or run away.Ruben Ostlund, the director, added: “Anything can happen in a movie when a monkey appears in an apartment. “I love monkeys and I think human beings love looking at monkeys because you’re seeing yourself reflected in them.”Telegraph reviewer Robbie Collin awarded the film four stars. 
The front runner for the character’s inspiration is Julian Schnabel, the American artist who is, like the fictional on-screen Julian, known for wearing tinted glasses and pyjamas in the day time.Other contenders naturally include Damien Hirst, the best-known of his generation of provocative contemporary artists and no stranger to works some members of the public have found baffling. In one scene of the film, a cleaner sweeps away an art installation by West’s character.It echoes a real-life event in 2001, when an installation by Damien Hirst was thrown away by a cleaner at the Eyestorm gallery, London, who had mistaken the piles of full ashtrays, empty beer bottles and newspapers were the remnants of a party the night before. In a press conference, West claimed he could not remember who precisely his version of “Julian” was based on, but admitted: “I’m sure you can guess…my clothes give it away.”His co-star Claes Bang confirmed that one of the clues was in the name – Julian. The contemporary art world has never been short of gossip.The Cannes Film Festival yesterday provided the inspiration behind a brand new controversy: just who are the mystery artists sent up on screen?Dominic West, the actor, disclosed he had based his character in The Square, a satire of the art world, on real-life contemporary artists, with works including a pile of gravel and a neon sign reading: “You have nothing”.
Vancouver Mall is embarking on a plan to build a satellite building and hopes to bring in three restaurants to fill the space in 2020. The mall submitted a preliminary application for the project to the city of Vancouver earlier this month.Tenants are not yet signed, said mall general manager JB Schutte, but the mall is negotiating with potential occupants. The proposed structure would include a 5,066-square-foot space intended for a fast-food restaurant with a drive-thru and 3,931 square feet of remaining space that would be split between two high-turnover, sit-down restaurants.Schutte said the mall’s management staff have been contemplating the expansion for the past four years, with an eye toward expanding the mall’s role as a restaurant and entertainment venue in addition to a retail destination.“We’ve got a substantial amount of extra parking, and there seems to be a demand for more restaurants,” he said.The new building would sit on a 1.9-acre portion of the mall’s main parking lot, near the southwest corner entrance from Northeast Thurston Way. The project would result in a net loss of 82 mall parking spaces, but the application states that the mall will still have a net excess of spaces.No exact timelineThe exact timeline of the project is still up in the air — Schutte said it depends in part on the city approval process, because the addition will need to be approved before tenants are signed. The soonest tenants would move in would be 2020, he said.
2013 could be pivotal for Smith, Stewart, BurkmanIt’s come down to decision time.Vancouver Mayor Tim Leavitt — in an Aug. 11 tweet from his account floated a single question: “Leavitt for Congress?”There’s since been little from him on the topic, but that hasn’t kept down a flood of questions about a race featuring Leavitt and freshman Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler of Camas.What party would Leavitt run with? Does he have enough experience? Can he raise the money? Will he find enough support?Either way, Leavitt — or whoever else may want to challenge Herrera Beutler — will likely need to step forward soon to get started trying to unseat her in 2012. Leavitt’s said he’s likely to make an announcement this week.A rumor is floating in Democratic circles that the party has someone else in mind: someone new, someone female.But if or until that person steps forward, Leavitt, 40, remains the most visible and well-known person to take on Herrera Beutler, 33. Another candidate, Jon Haugen, has also announced he’ll run as a conservative Democrat in the race.It’s not a certainty that Leavitt would have a smooth time ascending the political ranks. The mayor, only two years into his first four-year term (following five years on city council), may alienate some by trying to move on too quickly.“He was really charged to become mayor of Vancouver,” noted former Mayor Royce Pollard, whom Leavitt defeated in 2009 ahard-fought race. That rift hasn’t healed. “People wonder here about his dedication to city of Vancouver.”But, observers noted that if Leavitt, or anyone else, wants to take Herrera Beutler down, it’s best to do it before she becomes an established member of the House.
PORTLAND (AP) — A juvenile court judge decided Monday that an 11-year-old boy who flashed a gun on a MAX train in Portland last week will wear an electronic monitoring device and live with his aunt.KATU reports the boy is the brother of Yashanee Vaughn, a 14-year-old who was killed last year.His mother told the judge she’s dealing with grief and that the aunt could provide more structure for her son.The state is certifying the aunt as a foster parent.
This is why the drumbeat on FOLIOmag.com about VanityFair’s and the New York Times’s green issues and recycled paper (orthe lack thereof) is so off the mark.For better or worse, green issues aren’t about public advocacy. Seriously, how can Madonna, who has a privatejet and at least five enormous homes, be the cover girl for conservation? The big publishers’ green issues are about selling pages toadvertisers who want to be associated with green content. And until thoseadvertisers demand that their ads be printed on recycled paper (and provide therevenue that offsets the increased cost), the green issues will keep coming outon the same paper stock as every other issue.In the meantime, please pick up the “Better Planet” issue ofDiscover on newsstands now.

Wired is an especially nasty competitor of Discover, even though their sciencecoverage is a small part of their tech culture package. The NewYorker also competes with us for ad pages.You have to give them their due, though. From my perspective, they are by far the mosteffective spokespeople in the world for the power of magazines.

Washington: Four Indian-American executives from two IT staffing companies have been arrested on charges of fraudulently using the H-1B visa programme to gain an unfair advantage over their competitors, a US attorney has said. The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows US companies to employ foreign workers in speciality occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise.

Vemuri made his initial appearance on July 1 before the US Magistrate Judge Steven C Mannion in Newark federal court while Mannam and Silva appeared before the US Magistrate Judge Leda Dunn Wettre in Newark federal court on June 25.

According to the Department of Justice, Mane, Mannam, and Vemuri controlled two IT staffing companies– Procure Professionals Inc and Krypto IT Solutions Inc– located in Middlesex County, New Jersey. Advertise With Us Similarly, Silva and Mannam also controlled another New Jersey staffing company, referred to in the complaint as “Client A.” They used Procure and Krypto to recruit foreign nationals and sponsor them for H-1B visas, which allow recipients to live and work temporarily in the US in positions requiring specialised skills. To expedite their visa applications, the defendants caused Procure and Krypto to file H-1B applications falsely asserting that the foreign worker/beneficiaries had already secured positions at Client A, when, in reality, no such positions existed, federal prosecutors alleged. Instead, they used these fraudulent applications to build a “bench” of job candidates already admitted to the United States, who could then be hired out immediately to client companies without the need to wait through the visa application process, giving the defendants an advantage over their competitors in the staffing industry.
