The Bluebird THE BLUEBIRD The Audubon Society of Missouri Vol. 36, No. 4 November 1 1969 WE WELCOME THE RuFous HUMMINGBIRD To Missouri's AviFauna es swifts \ ....SR, Perhaps the most obliging rarity in years was a Ru ous Hummingbird first reported on September 6 by Jim Haw, Charleston. Not only does it add a new bird to the next revision of the state checklist (and one not even on the hypo• thetical list before), but it stayed around and let many other birders from hundreds of miles around come to see it, and posed for many photos (one from Haw is above), Jim wrote on Sept. 6, "I studied the bird, a beautiful male, for over an hour and noted all field marks carefully at distances as close as 30 feet. The head, entire back and tail were bright reddish brown; the wings darker, showing a very dark dull green coloration when at rest. In most lights the gorget appeared reddish brown to dark red, but at one angle of the sun seemed to be an iridescent light olive green, Breast and belly were gray, with a strong wash of reddish brown along the flanks. I obtained four pictures through a 400 mm lens at 30 ft, which when developed should be adequate to substantiate the record. Our neighbor claims the bird has been present in her yard next doDr to us for at least a month! Despite her familiarity with the Ruby-throated Hummingbird, she mistook the quite differently colored Rufous for a large insect. I might add that the Rufous apparently had no difficulty establishing his precedence over our resident Ruby-throats when they tried to approach his favorite patch of blooming scarlet sage, The visitor from the west promptly sent his local cousins packing." A later letter accompanying the photo on October 8 (the picture is in color, but we can't afford a color publication!) said, "The last word I received from Charleston is that the bird was still present on Oct. 4, having been seen daily for a month now. It has been seen by 14 observers from St. Louis and Cape Girardeau during that period. " So if you've wondered whether a state record can be substantiated without a dead specimen, there's the answer. I wonder how many others have been around without ever being reported, when this was next-door to a top-notch birder for a month before he saw it? Don't neglect your neighborhood?

Seasonreports Hamilton THE BLUEBIBD Audubon Society of Missouri p. 2 November , 1969' RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED AT FALL MEETING Can you affordtosenda postcardor two aboutCAN you A afford NOT TO ? DDT: Whereas, DDT pollution of the planetary environment is doing harm to much of - the fauna, and is even threatening some species with extinction, and Whereas, the unforeseen results and ramifications up through food chains and throughout food webs can be spectacularly disastrous, and Whereas, DDT is apparently not-a long term solution since insects develop' a resistance to its toxic effects, Now, Be it Therefore Resolved, that the Audubon Society of Missouri in Annual convention assembled this fourth day of October, 1969, at Camp Rising Sun, Lake of the Ozarks State Park, Missouri, proposes the banning of the manufacture, sale and use of DDT on the planet Earth. (copies to World Health Organization, President, Secretaries of Interior and Agriculture, Missouri delegation in Congress, Governor Hearnes, Speaker of the Missouri House , President Pro-tem of the Missouri Senate). ... SCENIC RIVERS: Whereas, Missouri has as fine- a set of wild and scenic rivers as any other state in the United States, and, Whereas, bills to establish a scenic river system in Missouri have failed to even clear committee in the last two sessions of the Missouri Legislature, and Whereas, Time is a crucial factor in saving our streams from the general deterior- ation that seems to accompany civilization in this society, Now be it resolved •••• does most urgently call on the Governor and the Legislature of the Stateof Missouri to provide abundant funds for the scenic rivers interim committee so that understandings can be reached through a series of local meetings that will enable a scenic river system to finallybe established in Missouri. (copies to governor, speaker of house, president pro-tem) ... POPULATION: Whereas, -the population- of the State of Missouri continues to increase, and, Whereas, Wilderness is becoming increasingly rare in Missouri, and Whereas, one of the inalienable rights of every human being is the solitude of the wilderness experience, and Wheeeas, the environment is under the double threat of expanding population and shrinking time for saving what wilderness is left, Now therefore be it resolved ask the governor to appoint a committee of Ecologists to study and recommend areas for inclusion in a Missouri Wildnerness system, and, Be it further resolved that the legislature fund this venture abundantly, and Be is further resolved that the Governor appoint a committee to investigate population in Missouri and find the optimum population for the State of Missouri. To be included on this committee would be representatives from the fields of ecology, agriculture, transportation, education, urban planning, recreation, psychology, sociology, and what other fields are deemed appropriate. (copies to Governor, speaker, president pro-tem) DO you ever write TO YOUR STATE. REPRESENTATIVE ? Did youevenknowyou you haveme? Does your city use DDT ? THE BLUEBIRD Audubon Society of Missouri p.3 November, 1969 ARCTIC ECOLOGY: Whereas, the single most immediately desperate problem facing conservation today is the possible destruction of the extremely fragile Arctic wilderness of the North Slope of the Brooks Range in Alaska for the purpose of extraction of petroleum resources, and Whereas, the possibilities for ecological disaster in this pristine area are immense, Now Therefore be it Resolved •••• implore that the President of the United States, the Secretary of the Interior, and representatives of the involved petroleum companies come together in a new spirit of good faith and genuine cooperation tor the purpose of setting up a program of controls and regulations to prevent one single ecological accident in the extraction, transportation, or processing of petroleum and to hold the impact of these activities on the wilderness to a complete and absolute minimum, and Be it further resolved that two items to be considered by this group will be (1) a moratorium on extraction activities while the problem is being studied, since no loss will be sustained in quantity, quality, or economics, and (2) the concept of voluntary posting of bond, i.e,, 25%of estimated value of reserve, by extractors in a renaissance of good faith and good will as an incentive to avoid accidents, and Be it further resolved that we believe the establishment of these policies to be thoroughly fair and reasonable requests since the extraction of resources from public land tor private profit is a privilege and in no sense a right. (copies to President, Secretaries of Interior and HEW, Missouri delegation in Congress, Humble Oil Company) - RESOURCE Plan For NATION'S Next200 YEARS: Whereas, the Natural resources of the United States have sustained and nurtured the growth of this nation to its present state of health, wealth, and world leadership, and Whereas, there is some question in the minds of many competent ecologists as to the possibilities of successfully duplicating this accomplishment in the next 200 years, Now, Be it Therefore Resolved that the Audubon Society of Missouri does recommend to the President of the United States, his cabinet, and the legislature that a blue ribbon commission be selected to study the resources of the United States and make recommendations no later than 1976 in the form of a 200 year plan designed to enable the United States to pass through the next 200 years and reach the year 2176 in a s good a condition, resource-wise, as she reaches 1976, and, Be it further resolved that Governor Hearnes of Missouri and the legislature should be encouraged to lend encouragement and cooperation in formulating this 200 year plan. (copies to President, all cabinet members, Missouri delegation, Governor, speaker, president pro-tem) BOUNTIES: Whereas, it is abundantly-- clear that--- the bounty system is ecologically a farce,& Whereas, among biologically aware people Missouri is the laughing stock of the nation, since we lead the nation in bounty payments at nearly $100,000 per year, and Whereas, this $100,000 per year should be channeled into beneficial environmental programs, and Whereas, the Missouri Department of Conservation has a model predator control program which is very effective, Now, therefore be it resolved,,,.does urge the Governor and members of the legislature to check the objective evidence tor themselves and having done this we are confident that the bounty system will be done away with in the State of THE BLUEBIRD Audubon Society of Missouri November, 1969 Resolution on BOUNTIES (continued) : Missouri, and Be it further resolved that the Audubon Society of Missouri stands ready to help bring about the passage of legislation to end the bounty system in Missouri. (copies to Director of Mo. Dept. of Conservation, and Prof. Charles Lsun of Bounty Information service,- with note that Audubon is ready to help). CONSERVATION EDUCATION: Whereas, Education is basic to every worthy cause, and Whereas, There are no ecology or environmental education requirements for teacher qualification in the Stateof Missouri, and Whereas, there is no ecological or environmental education requirement for graduation from Missouri high schools, Now Therefore be it Resolved •••• recommend that no later than the fall of 1976 every elementary teacher in the state of Missouri have a minimum of 2,5 semester hours in ecology or environmental education, and Be it further resolved that beginning no later than the graduating class of 1977 one requirement for graduation from a Missouri high school be at least one course in ecology or environmental education.

  • The Charismatic Leadership and Cultural Legacy of Stan Lee
    REINVENTING THE AMERICAN SUPERHERO: THE CHARISMATIC LEADERSHIP AND CULTURAL LEGACY OF STAN LEE Hazel Homer-Wambeam Junior Individual Documentary Process Paper: 499 Words !1 “A different house of worship A different color skin A piece of land that’s coveted And the drums of war begin.” -Stan Lee, 1970 THESIS As the comic book industry was collapsing during the 1950s and 60s, Stan Lee utilized his charismatic leadership style to reinvent and revive the superhero phenomenon. By leading the industry into the “Marvel Age,” Lee has left a multilayered legacy. Examples of this include raising awareness of social issues, shaping contemporary pop-culture, teaching literacy, giving people hope and self-confidence in the face of adversity, and leaving behind a multibillion dollar industry that employs thousands of people. TOPIC I was inspired to learn about Stan Lee after watching my first Marvel movie last spring. I was never interested in superheroes before this project, but now I have become an expert on the history of Marvel and have a new found love for the genre. Stan Lee’s entire personal collection is archived at the University of Wyoming American Heritage Center in my hometown. It contains 196 boxes of interviews, correspondence, original manuscripts, photos and comics from the 1920s to today. This was an amazing opportunity to obtain primary resources. !2 RESEARCH My most important primary resource was the phone interview I conducted with Stan Lee himself, now 92 years old. It was a rare opportunity that few people have had, and quite an honor! I use clips of Lee’s answers in my documentary.

    Comments on August 1, 2018 Planning Commission agenda items, received July 26-30 Items 1a/b, South Nashville Community Plan Amendment/Fairgrounds Mixed-Use District -----Original Message----- From: John Bernatavitz [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, July 30, 2018 10:30 AM To: Planning Commissioners Subject: Major League Soccer is what Nashville needs; so please support the proposed stadium! Dear Members of the Planning Commission, The 2018 World Cup said it all. What a great event! Nashville could also potentially share in the sport the binds the world together. I support the proposed Major League Soccer Stadium and renovation to the Fairgrounds Nashville. Professional sports teams in Nashville have turned into major brands that are recognized across their various leagues. The Predators not only hosted the NHL All Star weekend not long ago but are widely hailed as having the best home ice advantage in hockey. The Titans, on the heels of their incredible new uniform update ceremony, were selected to host next year's NFL draft at Ascend Amphitheater. Professional sports always have, and always will greatly benefit not only the neighborhoods where they play, but the city as a whole. I would ask that you seize this opportunity to make history with us and vote to approve this soccer stadium as well as the accompanying fairgrounds renovations. I recently went on a trip to Belize, and in the small village of Hopkins, Belize, I and my wife had the privilege of experiencing the World Cup final between Croatia and France with many people throughout the world in this village.

  • Boston Ballet: Next Generation, 2016
    HOME (HTTP://CRITICALDANCE.ORG/) / BALLET (USA & CANADA) (HTTP://CRITICALDANCE.ORG/CATEGORY/BALLET-USA-CANADA/) Boston Ballet: Next Generation, 2016 ! June 4, 2016 Boston Opera House Boston, MA May 18, 2016 Carla DeFord In its annual “Next Generation” program, Boston Ballet (BB) features students, trainees, and pre-professional dancers with music accompaniment performed by the New England Conservatory (NEC) Youth Orchestra. Having attended this event since 2014, I have to say that the star of this year’s show was Geneviève Leclair, assistant conductor of the Boston Ballet Orchestra, who guest conducted the NEC ensemble. There were also several memorable dancers, but the award for sustained achievement in music performance, including Act III of Tchaikovsky’s The Sleeping Beauty and excerpts from Ambroise Thomas’s Hamlet, goes to Leclair, who conducted the orchestra with such verve and precision that its members sounded not like the students they are, but like seasoned professionals. In addition to being essential to the audience’s enjoyment of the program, the music was an absolute gift to the dancers because it gave them the structure and direction they needed. Leclair’s confident dynamics and tempos, crisp rhythms, and crystalline phrasing created powerful forward momentum. Moreover, each style in the Tchaikovsky score was vividly realized – from the meowing of Puss in Boots and the White Cat, to the chirping of the Bluebird, to the stirring rhythms of the polonaise and mazurka. How wonderful for the dancers to be supported by music of such high caliber. Act III of The Sleeping Beauty (with choreography by Marius Petipa, Peter Martins after Petipa, and Alla Nikitina, a Boston Ballet School faculty member) also introduced us to the second star of the evening: Lex Ishimoto as the Bluebird.
