  • The Calgary Lancaster FM-136 Is Now Owned by Lynn Garrison but Never Registered in the Name of the Air Museum of Canada, and Never Transferred to the City of Calgary
    The First Vintage Flying Wings of Canada at Calgary, Alberta Research by Clarence Simonsen The Calgary Lancaster FM136 The preparation for the long ferry flights of the surplus P-51 fighter aircraft from RCAF storage areas in Western Canada, spurred Garrison into the idea of saving a World War Two Lancaster bomber aircraft. The words of Garrison tell the true story of finding and saving FM136 for Calgary. Source http://www.bombercommandmuseum.ca/photos_lanc/photos_fm136.html "Before Milt Harradence and I began to ferry the Mustangs, we first visited the old RCAF Station Macleod facility, now used by Canadian Pacific Airlines Repair for storage and maintenance. We drove to Macleod on a Saturday afternoon 1960, my 23rd birthday. It is an emotional thing to visit an abandoned airfield that once was full of life, noise, and activity. Now, the silence was only broken by the constant whisper of the wind in the popular tress, the flapping of loose metal against a hangar wall and grass growing through breaks in the parking ramp, and abandoned runways. One segment of the hangar door system was open two feet and we squeezed into the area where our Mustangs were stored. Our Mustangs were nested beneath the large wings of Lancaster bombers, and a couple of Auster fuselages sat wingless against the back wall. Our Mustangs would be saved to fly another day but the B-25s and Lancaster Mk. Xs faced the final extinction, turned into cookware or aluminum siding for new homes It was this moment I decided to save a Lancaster Mk.

Spanning almost 40 years of Genzken’s inventive, audacious, and deeply influential artwork, the exhibition brings together more than 150 objects in an astonishing variety of techniques, including assemblage, sculpture, painting, photography, collage, drawing, artist’s books, film, and large-scale installations. A majority of the works in the exhibition are on view in the U.S. for the first time, including Schauspieler (Actors) (2013), a large-scale installation, while others have rarely been publicly exhibited anywhere. Isa Genzken: Retrospective is co-organized by The Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and the Dallas Museum of Art. The exhibition is organized by Sabine Breitwieser, Chief Curator, Department of Media and Performance Art (until January 31, 2013), and Laura Hoptman, Curator, Department of Painting and Sculpture, MoMA; Michael Darling, the James W.

  • Haitian Ex-Minister Freed from Jail 19 Jun 2006 Reuters by Joseph Guyler Delva
    Haitian ex-minister freed from jail 19 Jun 2006 Reuters By Joseph Guyler Delva PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, June 19 (Reuters) - Haitian authorities released a former government minister who was jailed for more than two years on murder accusations, and they could soon free other high-profile prisoners who served under former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, a prosecutor said on Monday. Jocelerme Privert, Aristide's interior minister, was released on Friday after a prosector said there was no evidence of wrongdoing. Privert said he was a victim of a political conspiracy by the U.S.-backed interim government of former Prime Minister Gerard Latortue, who was installed after Aristide was ousted in an armed revolt in February 2004. "Thanks to God I am free now after 26 months of political persecutions and injustice," Privert told Reuters and radio station Melodie FM. Privert was arrested on April 6, 2004, and jailed on accusations that he was the mastermind behind what Aristide's opponents called a massacre on Feb. 11, 2004, in La Scierie, a small village near the northern town of St-Marc. Privert has denied the accusations. "I spent all this time in jail just because there were authorities who wanted to have their political revenge," he said. Former Prime Minister Yvon Neptune and a former legislator from Aristide's Lavalas Family party, Amanus Mayette, are among others held on similar accusations and expected to be released. A prosecutor working on the case has demanded that an appeals court dismiss the charges for lack of evidence. The court has yet to rule.
