Copy right Lapin Kansa Newspaper, Finland Floating Island Canal Cheong Jagerroos Founder | Visual Artist “Look at the sunset. Floating fire-islands move. Imperial over cream green seas. Islands on fire! Islands like torches! Islands on victory parade! By Edith Södergran Canal Cheong Jagerroos 張 彤 茹 (b. 1968, China), is an established Chinese international artist who grew up in an artistic family in Macau. In a fascinating way, the works of Canal Cheong Jagerroos combines the past and present, East and West. For the past 30 years, Cheong Jagerroos has lived and worked in numerous countries, from Asia to Europe and Africa. The unique experiences of culturally diverse places have influenced her artistic work both consciously and subconsciously.

    n a t i o n a l IMMIGRATION p r o j e c t of the National Lawyers Guild ABC v. Thornburgh: 20 Years Later 14 Beacon Street Suite 602 by Trina Realmuto Boston, MA 02108 Phone 617 227 9727 January 31, 2011 Fax 617 227 5495 Introduction and Thank You January 31, 2011 marks the 20th Anniversary of the landmark class action settlement agreement in American Baptist Churches v. Thornburgh, 760 F. Supp. 796 (N.D. Cal. 1991) (“ABC”). These days, when holding the government accountable for violations of the rights of noncitizens and naturalized citizens is as challenging as ever, the National Immigration Project remembers the Guatemalan and Salvadoran asylum seekers who courageously persisted in challenging the legality of the government’s pattern and practice of basing asylum determinations on foreign policy instead of the merits of individual claims. We take this opportunity to thank the members of the ABC Legal Team for their endless hours toiling over the litigation and negotiating an amazing settlement agreement. The individuals listed below were members of the legal team for the following organizations: American Civil Liberties Union, Center for Constitutional Rights, Central American Refugee Center, Morrison & Foerster, and the National Lawyers Guild. Thank you…. Marc Van Der Hout Lori A. Schechter Dan Kesselbrenner James J. Garrett Debbie Smith Michael L. Zigler Patty Blum Darryl L. Hamm Lucas Guttentag Ellen Yaroshefsky Morton Stavis Linton Joaquin Frank Deale And thank you to each and every person who may be missing from this list but who contributed to the success of the law suit.

As the Commission recognized in the Notice, the best way to help the largest number of AM stations to quickly and efficiently improve their service is to open such an AM-only window. Any other approach will make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for AM stations, to obtain the translators they urgently need to remain competitive and provide our communities with the service they deserve.

You will have noticed that shortly after having received the February edition another version arrived. What happened was that one page had an image that was not visible in the final creation of the PDF file. Having resolved that and multiple copies floating around another page got ‘corrupted’ and initially unnoticed which was sent out. I then sorted that out and emailed the correct version. I then had several emails from those readers who couldn’t find any different at all. Suggestions included ‘Must have been one of the pieces I didn’t read’ from Michael G4CCA and ‘Was the content of the second version the same as the first, the difference being in the layout of two pages per screen?’ from Richard G3ZIY.
