  • À la place des Petites annonces : Griffintown (3)

    Eh ben, puisqu’il n’y a pas de petites annonces aujourd’hui, allons-y pour une troisième “tranche de vie” de Griffintown.

    Situé autour du Canal Lachine, Griffintown est un ancien quartier ouvrier du sud-ouest de Montréal qui fut d’abord peuplé par les Irlandais venus au Canada pour fuir la famine de leur pays.

    Message de la part de Micheline Beaudry

    Décès de
    Cindy Lynn Zackowitz

    Cindy passed away on Sunday. It’s been a shock and a very sad loss for our family.
    Cindy Lynn Zackowitz, age 47, passed away unexpectedly on September 23, 2012 at her home in Anchorage, Alaska.
    Her special talent and gift to others was her outstanding photography and poetic haiku which allowed her to express her appreciation for nature and the world around her. Among Cindy’s most noteworthy accomplishments: she was the co-founder of the Alaska Haiku Society, she was internationally known for her haiku works; and her photographs were highlighted on more than 50 national and international websites. She was a frequent contributor to the Sierra Club’s ‘Daily Ray of Hope’ website. Those achievements always ‘tickled’ her.

    We send our deepest sympathies to Cindy’s family during this difficult time.

    LeRoy Gorman
    Appointed
    as New Honorary Curator of the American Haiku Archives
     
    The advisory board of the American Haiku Archives, which houses the Haiku Society of America archives, is pleased to announce the appointment of LeRoy Gorman as the 2012–2013 honorary curator of the American Haiku Archives at the California State Library in Sacramento (www.americanhaikuarchives.org). This honor is in recognition of his devotion to and enthusiasm for haiku development and exploration in Canada, with exemplary influence upon all English-language haiku across North America and abroad through his publications and editing, and his decades-long support of haiku through the Haiku Canada organization. His poetry consistently shows admirable creativity, courage, and range, embracing both traditional and visual/minimalist approaches to haiku and related genres of poetry. Gorman succeeds Jerry Ball, who was the honorary curator for the previous year. We are pleased to bestow this honor from the American Haiku Archives, which seeks to preserve and promote haiku and related poetry throughout the North American continent.
     

    Congratulations to Leroy!

    For more information about LeRoy Gorman as the archives’ 16th honorary curator, including sample poems, a biography, photo, and additional web links, please visit http://www.americanhaikuarchives.org/curators/LeRoyGorman.html.

  • La vie n’est pas seulement faite de cerises de terre,  de poisson-racines et  de travaux de fin de saison au jardin. Il y a des gens dont le quotidien a des couleurs bien plus excitantes :  voici la preuve !


  • Encore un !

    C’est grâce au commentaire de Lily  que j’ai découvert ce très beau site sur les origènes. Et ça m’a rappelé une rencontre fort impressionnante, faite il y a quelques années sur un petit sentier au bord du Fleuve, à La Malbaie.
