Phoenix Local News SECURITY COUNCIL URGES WORLD FREE OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS DURING HISTORIC SUMMIT September 24, 2009 at 5:10 pm SECURITY COUNCIL URGES WORLD FREE OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS DURING HISTORIC SUMMIT New York, Sep 24 2009 5:10PM The Security Council today affirmed its commitment to the goal of a world free of nuclear weapons and established a broad framework for reducing global nuclear dangers, in an historic summit-level <"http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs//2009/sc9746.doc.htm">meeting chaired by United States President Barack Obama. Today's meeting – only the fifth in the Council's history to be held at the level of heads of State and government – began with the unanimous adoption of a resolution by which the 15-member body voiced grave concern about the threat of nuclear proliferation and the need for global action to combat it. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon welcomed the resolution, adding that the summit was "an historic event that has opened a new chapter in the Council's efforts to address nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation." Stressing that "nuclear disarmament is the only sane path to a safer world," Mr. Ban said in his opening <"http://www.un.org/apps/sg/sgstats.asp?nid=4098">remarks that "nothing would work better in eliminating the risk of use than eliminating the weapons themselves." In resolution 1887, the Council called on countries to sign and ratify the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (<"http://www.un.org/events/npt2005/npttreaty.html">NPT), and created additional deterrence for withdrawal from the treaty. In addition, the Council called on all States to refrain from conducting a nuclear test explosion and to sign and ratify the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (<"http://www.ctbto.org/">CTBT), thereby bringing it into force as soon as possible. "Although we averted a nuclear nightmare during the Cold War, we now face proliferation of a scope and complexity that demands new strategies and new approaches," said Mr. Obama, the first US President to preside over a Security Council meeting. "Just one nuclear weapon exploded in a city – be it New York or Moscow, Tokyo or Beijing, London or Paris – could kill hundreds of thousands of people. And it would badly destabilize our security, our economies, and our very way of life." Russia's President said his country continues to reduce nuclear arms "way ahead of schedule," adding that all of its nuclear weapons are "located on its national territory and under reliable protection." Dmitry Medvedev also highlighted the "unprecedented" reductions of strategic nuclear arsenals by Russia and the US. Removing the threat of nuclear war is vital to realizing a safer world for all, China's President Hu Jintao, told the Council, while acknowledging that nuclear disarmament remains a "long and arduous" task. He put forward a series of measures, including abandoning the nuclear deterrence policy based on first use and taking credible steps to reduce the threat of nuclear weapons. President Óscar Arias of Costa Rica said the UN had been founded on the promise that all people would able to sleep peacefully, but that promise had not been kept. "While we sleep, death is awake. Death keeps watch from the warehouses that store more than 23,000 nuclear warheads, like 23,000 eyes open and waiting for a moment of carelessness," he stated, adding that it did not seem plausible to discuss disarmament as long as existing agreements were not being honoured. While affirming the right of nations to peaceful uses of nuclear energy, the resolution called for stronger safeguards to reduce the likelihood that peaceful nuclear programmes can be diverted to a weapons programme, as well as stricter national export controls on sensitive nuclear materials. Director General Mohamed ElBaradei spoke of the need to strengthen and empower the International Atomic Energy Agency (<"http://www.iaea.org/NewsCenter/News/2009/unscmeeting.html">IAEA) if it is to play a role in nuclear disarmament. "Our verification mandate is centred on nuclear material. If the Agency is to be expected to pursue possible weaponization activities, it must be empowered with the corresponding legal authority," he said. During the meeting several delegates voiced concern about the challenges to the non-proliferation regime posed by the nuclear activities of Iran and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). The world cannot stand by when Iran and DPRK reject the opportunities of peaceful civil nuclear power and instead take steps to develop nuclear weapons in a way that threatens regional peace and security, stated Prime Minister Gordon Brown of the United Kingdom. "Today, I believe we have to draw a line in the sand. Iran must not allow its actions to prevent the international community from moving forward to a more peaceful era," he said, adding that as evidence of Iran's breach of international agreements grows, tougher sanctions must be considered. French President Nicolas Sarkozy said that DPRK shows what happens when too much time is allowed to pass. After years of diplomatic efforts, the country is now at the point of conducting nuclear tests and long-range missile tests, and it exports sensitive technologies to unstable regions, he stated. "I call on those with the means to put pressure and exert influence on Pyongyang to use them so that it puts a halt to these schemes." Today's meeting comes ahead of the nuclear security summit to be convened by Mr. Obama next April and the NPT Review Conference set for next May. It also coincided with a two-day conference that began at UN Headquarters today to try to promote the CTBT and its entry into force.

"Turkey has on every possible occasion stressed that it is not possible to turn a blind eye to the appalling conditions in Gaza," Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan <"http://www.un.org/ga/64/generaldebate/pdf/TR_en.pdf">told the second day of the high-level segment of the Assembly, held at United Nations Headquarters in New York. "It is our common humanitarian and moral responsibility to ensure that the tragedy unfolding in Gaza is brought to an end, and an atmosphere of lasting peace is created in the region," said Mr. Erdogan. He told the 192-member Assembly that the three-week Israeli military offensive at the start of the year, which had the stated aim of ending rocket attacks by militants operating in Gaza, quickly turned into a human tragedy. The conflict resulted in the deaths of some 1,400 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and over 5,000 injuries. Many buildings in Gaza were turned to rubble, and even UN sites came under attack, said Mr. Erdogan. "It has been eight months since the declaration of the ceasefires that ended the hostilities in Gaza," he said, adding that six months have also passed since an international conference in Egypt pledged billions of dollars for the reconstruction of the area. "However, I regret that the human tragedy in Gaza still goes on." Mr. Erdogan noted that closures at border crossings block reconstruction materials and supplies from entering Gaza, causing extended suffering for the 1.4 million people living in the Strip. "We demand that these obstacles are immediately lifted and normalcy restored to Gaza for the sake of peace and security of both Israel and the Palestinians," he said. Urging the international community to reinvigorate efforts to resolve the problem, the Prime Minister said told the Assembly that it "is our common humanitarian and moral responsibility to ensure that the tragedy unfolding in Gaza is brought to an end, and an atmosphere of lasting peace is created in the region." He underscored the importance of resuming Israeli-Palestinian talks – disrupted by the Gaza conflict – as soon as possible, in a wide-ranging speech that touched on talks with Greece over the reunification of Cyprus, reform of the UN, stability in the Caucasus, the territorial integrity of Iraq, and climate change.

Mr. Ban will host the meeting of the diplomatic Quartet – comprising the UN, European Union (EU), Russia and the United States – later today at UN Headquarters in New York, on the sidelines of the annual high-level segment of the General Assembly. In his meeting yesterday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Secretary-General restated the UN's call for a full settlement freeze and the implementation of other commitments under the Middle East Road Map, which embodies the two-State solution. The two also discussed the humanitarian situation in Gaza, with Mr. Ban expressing his regret that Israel had not accepted the UN proposal made in June to begin reconstruction with a UN-sponsored pilot project in Gaza. Mr. Ban also voiced his serious concern about the situation in Gaza in a separate meeting with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, noting that the UN remained ready to implement the pilot project to kick start some reconstruction and that it would continue to raise the issue with Israel. The Secretary-General also congratulated Mr. Abbas on recent steps towards political renewal and statehood and on the economic revitalization in the West Bank. On 25 August Prime Minister Salam Fayyad announced plans to complete the building of Palestinian state institutions in two years. Mr. Ban has voiced his strong support for these efforts and pledged the UN's assistance.

ROYALTIES FROM NEXT BOB DYLAN ALBUM TO HELP UN SCHEME TO FEED HUNGRY CHILDREN September 24, 2009 at 10:10 am

ROYALTIES FROM NEXT BOB DYLAN ALBUM TO HELP UN SCHEME TO FEED HUNGRY CHILDREN New York, Sep 24 2009 10:10AM Music fans who buy a copy of the upcoming Christmas album by the renowned United States singer-songwriter Bob Dylan will also be giving a helping hand to hungry children around the globe after the United Nations World Food Programme (<"http://www.wfp.org/">WFP) <"http://www.wfp.org/stories/bob-dylan-partners-wfp-feed-hungry-school-kids">announced today that royalties from the album will be donated to its school meals initiative. WFP said the partnership with Mr. Dylan comes at a critical time for its school meals programme, given that the financial crisis and stubbornly high food prices have pushed millions more children around the world into poverty over the past year. "The number of hungry in the world – many of them children – has hit an historic high, while food assistance has reached an historic low," said WFP Executive Director Josette Sheeran in a statement in which she thanked Mr. Dylan for his generosity. WFP has warned that the lives of as many as 108 million people worldwide are at risk from the growing hunger crisis, and it is aiming to provide food to that many people across 74 countries this year. Its school meals programme allows a child to receive a cup of porridge for the equivalent of 25 cents a day, ensuring they have the energy to concentrate in school, gain an education and enjoy more opportunities for success in the future. Mr. Dylan, whose new album, <i>Christmas In The Heart</i>, will be released on 12 October, said he was honoured to be able to assist the WFP's school meals initiative. "That the problem of hunger is ultimately solvable means we must each do what we can to help feed those who are suffering and support efforts to find long-term solutions," he said.

UN MARITIME CHIEF CALLS ON WORLD LEADERS TO AGREE ON GLOBAL WARMING TREATY September 24, 2009 at 9:10 am

UN MARITIME CHIEF CALLS ON WORLD LEADERS TO AGREE ON GLOBAL WARMING TREATY New York, Sep 24 2009 9:10AM No one is immune to the impact of climate change, the head of the United Nations maritime agency warned today in a message urging world leaders to reach agreement at an international conference aimed at firming up an effective greenhouse gas reduction pact in December. "Mankind is on the horns of a dilemma," stressed Efthimios Mitropoulos, Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization (<"http://www.imo.org/">IMO). In a <"http://www.imo.org/includes/blastDataOnly.asp/data_id%3D26310/messageE.pdf">message marking World Maritime Day, whose theme this year is "Climate Change: a challenge for IMO too!," Mr. Mitropoulos said that whether "we like it or not, our collective way of life has become unsustainable and we need to do something about it, and soon. "The choices we have made about the way we lead our lives have been slowly eating away at the very support system that enables us to live and breathe," said Mr. Mitropoulos. "This cannot, and should not, go on." The IMO chief underscored that finding solutions to the threat of climate change are everyone's responsibility and the solutions need to be realistic, cost-effective, well-balanced, and implemented through clear, transparent, and "fraud-free" mechanisms. The international community can provide the force needed to push ministers and Heads of State to act decisively and in concert when they meet in Copenhagen in December to agree on a successor to the Kyoto Protocol treaty to cut carbon emissions, said Mr. Mitropoulos. Echoing a speech made by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in India earlier this year, he said that industrialized countries "bear a great deal of responsibility for the state of the planet today, and they must bear their share of the burden when it comes to paying for solutions. "But, at the same time, countries which did not contribute as much to global warming still have a responsibility to address it. I don't think this is the time for finger pointing." He said that responsibility to take bold, comprehensive and coordinated action to jump-start the recovery of the planet lies with industrialized countries, emerging economies and the developing world. "Working together, with a sense of responsibility for future generations, the agreements the Copenhagen Conference will be able to make later this year can have genuine and lasting value." Gaëlle Sévenier of the World Meteorological Organization (<"http://www.wmo.int/pages/index_en.html">WMO) said the agency was joining the IMO in celebrating International Maritime Day by issuing a new guide for the security and improvement of maritime navigation newly opened Arctic sea lanes, created by climate change. World Maritime Day, which IMO celebrates in the last week of September every year, is used to focus attention on the importance of shipping safety, maritime security and the marine environment and to emphasize a particular aspect of IMO's work.

Bookstores fight back with instant paperbacks September 23, 2009 at 6:32 pm Just Add Author Dept. Battered booksellers, especially independent ones, have so far withstood the punishing shock-and-awe offensive of Internet Age marauders like Amazon. Battered booksellers, especially independent ones, have so far withstood the punishing shock-and-awe offensive of Internet Age marauders like Amazon. Now, they have a secret weapon that they hope will continue to lure customers into their stores: would you believe it's a machine that can print up a fresh new paperback copy from a menu of 3.6 million books? Harvard Book Store cleared out space behind its History, Politics, and Religion sections to make room for the three-foot-by-six-foot-by-four-foot robot retailer, called the Espresso Book Machine. In a public unveiling slated for September 29, the Harvard Book Store will become only the second US merchant to install such an apparatus, which prints, binds, and trims perfect-bound books — complete with full-color covers and black-and-white guts — in about four minutes. "Books will be produced on a massively decentralized way," promises Dane Neller, CEO of On Demand Books, the manufacturer of the machines that will let customers select from millions of titles in less time than it takes to comb the teetering stacks of a used bookstore. "The life of the book will be infinite." Says Harvard Book Store owner Jeffrey Mayersohn, "I had developed a notion that the ability to produce books in stores was an important part of the future of bookselling." So is having access to an inventory that rivals the depths of the Amazons. With the machine comes a deal inked this month between Google and On Demand Books, which gives patrons access to more than two million public-domain and out-of-print titles in Google's digital coffers, coupled with 1.6 million others. "We're moving steadily toward the goal of any book, ever written, in your hands, in a moment," says Mayersohn. With production and order fulfillment gone local (and Harvard adding its own bicycle-delivery twist), this could be a leaner, meaner, and greener economic model than centralized book production and distribution with the biggies — but only if enough readers demand sufficient obscure titles, at $8 a pop, to pay for the $100,000 machine. "I personally don't know how far this is going to go and how much the economics are going to work for the booksellers," says Tom Hallock, associate publisher and sales and marketing director of Boston's Beacon Press. Nonetheless, he says it's important for brick-and-mortar stores to stay in the game: "I applaud the Harvard Book Store for bringing in the machine and seeing what they brew up with it," even if in-store printing competes with trade publishers like his.

September 23, 2009 at 6:27 pm Ken Burns worships America's spiritual resource At its core, Ken Burns's PBS 12-hour epic The National Parks: America's Best Idea (nightly on WGBH Channel 2 at 8 pm, from September 27 through October 2) is a selective, initiative by initiative, advocate by advocate, chronicle of the evolution of the National Parks system and the changing roles protected lands have played in American culture since Congress validated Yosemite in 1864. PANTHEISTIC CONNECTION: Long before environmentalism, John Muir extolled the virtue of spaces where "nature may heal and give strength to body and soul." Listen: Clif Garboden's complete interview with Ken Burns (mp3). Slideshow: Images from The National Parks: America's Best Idea. At its core, Ken Burns's PBS 12-hour epic The National Parks: America's Best Idea (nightly on WGBH Channel 2 at 8 pm, from September 27 through October 2) is a selective, initiative by initiative, advocate by advocate, chronicle of the evolution of the National Parks system and the changing roles protected lands have played in American culture since Congress validated Yosemite in 1864. Written by Dayton Duncan, the film does the job of telling that story well, despite focusing on only a double handful of sites (though all are depicted) and "a few" (that is, "just" 60 or so) of the players in the struggle to establish protected public lands. Beautiful? Of course, it's beautiful. Burns, after all, filmed the same dramatic landscapes gorgeous enough to inspire a profit-obsessed, expansionist-minded nation to preserve natural settings for future generations. As he reminds us, the initial motivation behind such set-asides was more spiritual than scientific. Logical arguments for protecting wilderness based on the environmentalists' long view and calculated ecological management came late to this party. In the 19th century, the sales pitch was based on æsthetics and a plea to restore the pantheistic connection between modern, industrializing society and Eden. Naturalist John Muir, the parks movement's primary early advocate, certainly had a head for science, but he buttressed his case with transcendental arguments like "Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul." Muir understood that what moves the spirit is not only the impressive foreign spectacle of a primordial vista but the humbling fact that such a souvenir from unimaginable æons past can exist in the present. As usual, Burns inserts interviews by writers and participants that, occasional repetitions aside, place the history in meaningful perspective. Prime among these is his unintended "star," African-American ranger Shelton Johnson, who's brought into the mix only to comment on the period when black cavalry, the "Buffalo Soldiers," patrolled the parks. Johnson, it turns out, is also a poet and the production's most eloquent, silver-tongued recurring spokesperson. Burns calls him "the conscience of the film."

The Stork Club September 23, 2009 at 5:56 pm Jazz and soul team up to make sweet music Remember Circle: Plates and Lounge? The Stork Club has succeeded that short-lived restaurant and bar, which succeeded Bob's Southern Bistro, itself the recast version of Bob the Chef's. THE BURGER IS KING: A house-made Angus burger, topped with onion rings, quality cheese, and optional meaty, smoky bacon, is the stunner of the entrées. The Stork Club | 604 Columbus Avenue, Boston | 617.391.0256 | Open Daily, 5:30 pm –1 am | AE, DI, MC, VI | Full bar | No valet parking | Access up two steps from sidewalk level Remember Circle: Plates and Lounge? The Stork Club has succeeded that short-lived restaurant and bar, which succeeded Bob's Southern Bistro, itself the recast version of Bob the Chef's. Some token soul food remains on the menu here, but we have clearly jumped from Boston's leading African-American-owned restaurant to a jazz-inspired nightclub/restaurant named after a famous New York hotspot that, while not technically segregated, was notoriously inhospitable to black celebrities. The food, while a bit busy and on my visit sometimes over-salted or overly reliant on hot pepper, is generally fine. It's a pleasant place for an early dinner, though the live music (mostly jazz) doesn't start until 8 or 9. The bar-type menu is a fine match for music, too. If your clothes aren't too jazzy, you could risk the yellow-tomato gazpacho ($8), an excellent version of the acidulated raw soup with pretty swirls of basil oil and bit of cream at the center. A salad of arugula, roasted figs, caramelized walnuts, and shaved parmesan ($10) worked despite all those disparate ingredients ? the cut-up figs seemingly fresh, the walnuts perhaps not so caramelized, the dressing excellent. Rock shrimp and ginger spring rolls ($13) were unfortunately too stodgy and the flavor of Maine rock shrimp was lost. With two dips (soy and citric), this dish could be fixed, perhaps by a consultant from Southeast Asia. Spice-cured country ribs ($12) were just eight baked ribs in the Boston style, meatier and neater than at either version of Bob's, but in reasonable solidarity. The sauce, "Prickly Pear BBQ," doesn't taste like cactus, but does taste peppery, so okay. The stunner of the entrées was the handmade Angus burger ($12; add $1 for bacon). It comes with excellent French fries ? tops, in fact, in every category except crispness ? that are truffle seasoned and taste like real potatoes. The chef is smart enough not to make the ketchup from scratch. Do have the bacon, which is thick, meaty, smoky, and crisp.

Review: Five Minutes of Heaven September 23, 2009 at 5:23 pm Or, rather, 90 minutes of tension It's easy to see what attracted Liam Neeson and James Nesbitt ( Bloody Sunday ) to Prime Suspect veteran Guy Hibbert's screenplay: it's an actor's showcase. Can Beacon Hill do better? September 23, 2009 at 5:21 pm Gambling and education take center stage With DiMasi gone, the idea of casino gambling is again alive. Last year the Phoenix came out foursquare in favor of Governor Deval Patrick's plan to build resort-style casinos. Patrick's proactive plan was conceived as a solid economic-development project closely tied with promoting tourism, already the state's third-largest industry. Former Speaker of the House Sal DiMasi, now under federal indictment on charges of political corruption, killed the idea. With DiMasi gone, the idea of casino gambling is again alive. After taking the temperature of his chamber, current Speaker Robert DeLeo has flip-flopped and is letting planning go forward. Why is what was a bad idea one political season ago now a good one? Part of the answer is that, with the economy in the tank, the state is more strapped for cash than usual. The other part is that, as a group, Beacon Hill legislators — especially House members — often have a hard time telling their heads from their tails. A bunch of bananas has more spine than the House — and often more foresight. The way things are shaping up at the State House, there is a good chance that any casino bill will be a thinly disguised measure to save horse racing, which is having trouble maintaining its economic viability. One of the strongest arguments in favor of Massachusetts casino gambling is to try to capture a portion of the estimated $1 billion in local dollars that flow to casinos in Rhode Island and Connecticut. But anyone who thinks casino gambling will be a magic pill to solve this state's fiscal woes should take a look at what's happening south of our border, where the bad economy has cut into gaming profits, and thus revenue to the states of Rhode Island and Connecticut. Rhode Island did a particularly bad job of structuring its gaming business. If Massachusetts is not careful, it is possible that it could turn what should be a winning proposition into a losing one. A new look at casino gambling should take into account the current economic climate. If there is a new case to be made, make it. But forget about bailing out the race tracks. Let's see if the legislature can redeem its dismal record on this matter and come up with a plan that makes long-term sense. A sorry statistic You wouldn't guess it from DeLeo and Senate President Therese Murray, but there are more pressing issues for the state legislature than casinos. Education, for example. Read more Review: Love Happens September 23, 2009 at 3:28 pm Melodrama also happens Half an hour into the screening of this tearjerker from Brandon Camp, three women exited. They made the right choice. You're all guilty! September 23, 2009 at 3:17 pm In his new book, Three Felonies a Day , Harvey Silverglate dissects the corrupt justice practiced by federal prosecutors Silverglate's thesis is as provocative as it is simple: justice has become sufficiently perverted in this nation that federal prosecutors, if they put their minds to it, could find a way to indict almost any one of us for almost anything. It is a truly radical notion. Harvey Silverglate is a difficult talent to pigeonhole. A combative criminal appellate and trial lawyer, he has dedicated himself to defending civil liberties in their broadest definition. In the process, Silverglate has carved out a special reputation as a scourge of campus-based "political correctness," and has won numerous awards for his long-standing legal and political coverage in the Phoenix. Now, he has published his second book, Three Felonies a Day: How the Feds Target the Innocent (Encounter Books, $25.95). Silverglate's thesis is as provocative as it is simple: justice has become sufficiently perverted in this nation that federal prosecutors, if they put their minds to it, could find a way to indict almost any one of us for almost anything. It is a truly radical notion. Silverglate presents a series of freestanding case studies that range from Wall Street to the Massachusetts State House, to Boston City Hall, to a suburban doctor's office, to a Midwest university, to the newsroom of the New York Times. At this curious moment in history, Silverglate's book might not shock either the left or the right. For some time now, the two opposing wings of the American centrist polity have been alarmed by the predatory nature of our national government. For those in the middle of the political spectrum, however, Silverglate's book should be a bracing wake-up call. Liberty and freedom are being compromised, one prosecution at a time. Your book was written during the Bush years. But now, Barack Obama is president. Why should the concerns you lay out inThree Felonies a Daystill be on progressive minds? The big, bad Bush Republicans are gone. You raise an interesting point. A lot of my liberal friends assume that my book is about prosecutions under the eight years of Bush. This, however, is not a phenomenon that is relegated to any particular political party. The abuses are found under every president from Reagan to today. Including Clinton and Obama? Under Clinton, yes. And I see little reason to think that they will not continue under Obama. Pinpoint when prosecutors began running amok. The mid 1980s. That's when I began to notice this phenomenon. I have been a criminal-defense and civil-liberties lawyer from 1967 onward, so somewhere short of two decades into my legal career is when I noticed this problem. Read more The Olympic (shell) games September 23, 2009 at 3:05 pm There are billions of reasons why every debt-saddled American should hope that the US does not get the gold in 2016. It's been 13 years since the pageantry and spectacle of the Summer Olympic Games — and the mythical economic boon that goes with it — has graced US soil. But we'll find out next week if, in a secret-ballot vote in Europe, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) will award the 2016 Games to Chicago, the American city competing for the bid. It's been 13 years since the pageantry and spectacle of the Summer Olympic Games — and the mythical economic boon that goes with it — has graced US soil. And it will be at least another seven years before such a star-spangled Olympic dream comes true. But we'll find out next week if, in a secret-ballot vote in Europe, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) will award the 2016 Games to Chicago, the American city competing for the bid. Yes, on October 2, Denmark will welcome dignitaries from all over the planet as the IOC convenes its 121st session. After a welcoming ceremony at the Copenhagen Opera House, the IOC's 130 members will gather to decide which of four cities — the Obama-and-Oprah-backed Chicago is up against Rio de Janeiro, Madrid, and Tokyo — will host the XXXI Olympiad. Global interest in the announcement always runs high, given the perception that securing a host-city platform will punch an economic meal ticket worth billions of dollars. That is surely why both the president of Brazil and the king of Spain have vowed to be in Copenhagen for the announcement — working the room before the vote — and why the prime minister of Japan and even President Barack Obama could also make a showing (First Lady Michelle has already committed to attend). It's also of interest to Bostonians, for two reasons: 1) as Americans, we're eager to see if our country will get the Games, and, more selfishly, 2) if Chicago falters, it means the 2020 Games will almost certainly be served up to whichever enterprising US city emerges from the pack. That's because the IOC would have to be dumber than a steroid-ingesting shot-putter to reject an American city — with all the attendant broadcasting dollars and sponsorship bucks — three times in a row (New York 2012, Chicago 2016, and TBD 2020). The lucky city could well be Boston, which, sources say, has been quietly readying an exploratory committee should the Windy City be blown away. Two independent and unofficial Web sites that monitor the bid process have handicapped the 2016 contest. One has Chicago in front, while the other has it trailing both Tokyo and Rio. A given in the sharp-elbowed scramble to secure the Olympics is the presumption that the Games are an economic golden goose. And that may be true — for multi-national corporations. According to many experts, however, on a local level, hosting the Olympics is actually a recipe for economic ruination. Be careful what you wish for, would-be host cities: you could find that the glorious Olympic torch burns at both ends. Read more Can Flaherty woo Yoon? September 23, 2009 at 2:49 pm Don't call it a victory just yet; Michael Flaherty's work has only begun. Will Sam Yoon come to his aid? Michael Flaherty, having earned a spot Tuesday on the November ballot, starts his six-week push to the Boston mayoral final with a big problem. He needs Sam Yoon's voters, and to get them he needs Sam Yoon. OUT WITH THE OLD: If Michael Flaherty hopes to parlay his preliminary success into a victory in November, he'll need some help from "New Boston." Michael Flaherty, having earned a spot Tuesday on the November ballot, starts his six-week push to the Boston mayoral final with a big problem. He needs Sam Yoon's voters, and to get them he needs Sam Yoon. That might be overstating the case, but not by much. Flaherty can't cobble together a majority of the vote without the so-called New Boston coalition of young progressives, immigrants, recent transplants to the city, and minorities. He might be able to win some of them over by himself — he has been courting them for quite a while — but cannot afford to devote the precious hours and resources to do it one voter at a time. As it stands, Flaherty's prospects don't look good. Things might have been different had Flaherty accomplished what he needed to do to convince the skeptics that he had a legitimate shot at beating Mayor Thomas Menino: keep Menino under 50 percent of the vote, while putting up a solid enough personal number to give the impression he is steadily adding voters to his bandwagon. For a while on Tuesday, it looked like it might happen. As late as 9:35 pm, when Flaherty entered the packed Venezia Waterfront Restaurant in Dorchester to the blare of Dropkick Murphys, the incomplete vote tally had it Menino 47 percent, Flaherty 29 percent. When it was all over, though, the Menino machine had proven its worth. The mayor not only squeaked over 50 percent, but more than doubled Flaherty's total ? while Flaherty ended up barely edging Yoon. Flaherty would surely be helped, then, by an enthusiastic endorsement from Yoon. But Yoon seems to be in no hurry to make that decision. Instead, Yoon's agenda is perhaps topped by whatever best serves Yoon's 2013 mayoral hopes. If Menino bests Flaherty in November, but chooses to retire four years from now, Yoon has to be considered an early front-runner to take one of the top two spots in the inevitably fragmented 2013 mayoral preliminary. (His opponent may well be At-Large City Councilor John Connolly, whose impressive, almost dominating first-place finish Tuesday makes him an instant mayoral contender.) Walking away quietly from the Menino-Flaherty showdown might be better for those prospects than getting caught up in it. New friends Flaherty graciously commended Yoon and fourth-place finisher Kevin McCrea, but did not explicitly ask for their supporters' votes during his brief election-night speech in the Venezia ballroom.

Leon Kirchner, 1919–2009 September 23, 2009 at 1:48 pm In Memoriam Craggy, tender, passionate, witty, rough-edged, lyrical, uncompromising, Leon Kirchner's music, so like the man himself, made an indelible impression.

The Bigmouth strikes again September 22, 2009 at 7:40 pm Kanye acts like himself; nation loses shit Given all the conflicting emotions, it was tough to form an opinion on Kanye West's VMA bum rush against Taylor Swift. Given all the conflicting emotions, it was tough to form an opinion on KANYE WEST's VMA bum rush against TAYLOR SWIFT. My natural revulsion against Kanye's ego was counteracted by my love of mayhem and disruption, and my disdain for cutesy teen-pop singers was tempered by the pitiful welling of confusion and heartbreak in Taylor's big, beautiful whatever-colored eyes. I'd call it a wash. The crowd was conflicted too — there was plenty of applause mixed in with the boos. I'd imagine about a third of it was from Beyoncé supporters, a third was from people just excited to see Kanye and Taylor Swift on stage, and the rest was the sound of MTV execs high-fiving each other because they've got a new "most shocking moment" to pad out the weeks of self-gratification that traditionally hype up the ceremony ? Diana Ross wiggling Lil Kim's boob has been number one for way too long. Although this isn't West's first spirited outburst, it may be the first that can't be shrugged off with a clucking "Oh, that Kanye." His fatal miscalculation this time, it seems, was interrupting the sure-to-be-adorable speech of Taylor Swift, the industry's most blameless white-bread innocent. Grabbing the mic from some goofus no-name dance crew at the 2006 MTV Euro awards was one thing, but interrupting the proudest moment of a wide-eyed celebrity teen bumpkin is enough to make even the president call you a jackass. Katy Perry said it best, via Twitter: "FUCK U KANYE. IT'S LIKE U STEPPED 0N A KITTEN." Please note that this is not only the first-ever instance of Katy Perry saying something best, it's also the first time something has been said best via Twitter. Or perhaps I'm giving Katy too much credit — I figured she was speaking metaphorically, but maybe I tuned in late and missed the part where a cognac-swigging Kanye trod over some mewling kittens on the red carpet. Oh, that Kanye! As I write this, Ye is already up to four apologies: two on his blog, one on Jay Leno, and one via telephone directly to Swift. (Extrapolating from the current rate of two apologies per day since the incident, I expect he'll be somewhere around number 16 by the time you read this, so surely he'll be reaching stratospheric levels of public forgiveness, and I'll just look like an asshole for still making fun of him.) Read more Black beauty September 22, 2009 at 7:36 pm Fences, plus The Savannah Disputation and Mister Roberts August Wilson pioneered a magical realism all his own. FENCES It's the combination of the mundane and the miraculous that makes August Wilson's play not only hard-hitting but transcendent. August Wilson pioneered a magical realism all his own. In the late dramatist's cycle of 10 plays chronicling decade by decade the African-American experience of the 20th century, the kitchen sink is oftener than not limned by a halo of the supernatural. And FENCES, among the most traditional yet powerful of the playwright's works, is no exception. Set on a scruffy patch of yard off a Pittsburgh alley in 1957, Wilson's first Pulitzer winner centers on an embittered titan of a garbage collector who claims to have wrestled down the Devil and also includes a mentally damaged character whose perceived connections to Heaven turn out to be quite genuine. As in Wilson's other finest works, it's this combination of the mundane and the miraculous ? interwoven in a rich tapestry of black speech that draws on the church, the street, and the blues ? that makes the play not only hard-hitting but transcendent. And slammed here by the bat of the Huntington Theatre Company (at the Boston University Theatre through October 11), the baseball-centric drama soars. The Huntington early on became a way station for Wilson's plays as they traveled toward Broadway, their author, with his familiar cap and cigarette, rewriting in restaurants that included Ann's Cafeteria (now Betty's Wok and Noodle) near the BU Theatre. Fences made its pilgrimage before the Huntington got in on the act, but with this production the Boston troupe mounts its ninth play of Wilson's sweeping cycle. Frequent Wilson collaborator Kenny Leon is at the helm, with Wilson vet John Beasley filling James Earl Jones's shoes if not quite supplying his thunder as Herculean hauler of refuse Troy Maxson, and Crystal Fox turning in a subtly devastating performance as Rose, the wife in whose compassionate embrace Troy nightly tries "to blast a hole into forever." There are echoes of Shakespeare and Arthur Miller in Wilson's story of a tough father both thwarting and shaping his sons at a time when the winds of social change were just starting to blow. A sharecropper's son who weathered the black diaspora north, a term in prison, and the hardening disappointment of having been a gifted Negro League ballplayer before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier, Troy disparages his jazz-musician son from an earlier marriage and squelches any chance his son with Rose might have for a football scholarship that he assumes will lead, like his own sports prowess, nowhere. Troy's motives are both protective and mean-spirited, spurred by dueling fears that the son too will strike out against the white Establishment and that he'll outstrip his galvanic old man. And Beasley (though he flubs a few lines) captures both the brute, self-forged morality of Troy and the frisky raconteur with "some Uncle Remus" in him.

That's the first line of a sonnet that John Keats did or did not write for Fanny Brawne, who was in either case the love of his brief life.   Bright Star | Written and Directed by Jane Campion | with Abbie Cornish, Ben Whishaw, Paul Schneider, Kerry Fox, Edie Martin, and Thomas Sangster | Apparition | 119 minutes True romance: Campion beams on her Bright Star. By Peter Keough. "Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art." That's the first line of a sonnet that John Keats did or did not write for Fanny Brawne, who was in either case the love of his brief life. Keats described her as "monstrous in her behavior flying out in all directions, calling people such names — that I was forced lately to make use of the term Minx — this I think not from any innate vice but from a penchant she has for acting stylishly." Was this the proper helpmate of the most famous Romantic poet of all? Critics have debated that point for the past century and a half. In Bright Star, Australian director Jane Campion weighs in with an unequivocal yes. Her film, true to its title, is about Fanny rather than Keats. Keats and Fanny met late in 1818, when he was 23 and she 18. There was a great deal of posturing and teasing and mock-fighting between them, but it wasn't till April of 1819, when her family moved into Wentworth House (the other half of which Keats shared with his friend Charles Brown) in Hampstead, that both their love and Keats's poetry heated up. By the fall there was an understanding between them — but Keats had no income and was too poor to marry. The following February, he coughed up the notorious drop of arterial blood that signaled he had contracted tuberculosis. Within a year, he was dead, in Rome, where his friends had sent him for the warmer climate. Bright Star opens with close-ups of Fanny sewing (she was a stylish seamstress who made her own clothes) while on the soundtrack we hear the "Hampstead Heathens" vocalizing, Swingle Singers-style, the Romance from Mozart's Gran Partita (the movement that Salieri salivates over in Amadeus). What follows is a bright (almost glossy), well-bred love story that, but for the tragic ending, could be a Jane Austen novel of female empowerment. Abbie Cornish is a knowing, Bond Girl?like Fanny whose emotional commitment is never in doubt, even when she can't bring herself to gush over her beloved's every line. Ben Whishaw, channeling his fey Sebastian Flyte from the 2007 Brideshead Revisited, loiters pale and haggard as a one-dimensional Keats untouched by philosophy or politics or his experience in the surgical practice at Guy's Hospital. Paul Schneider's very Scottish-sounding Brown is the villain who keeps them apart till Keats's TB kicks in, partly because he thinks Fanny's a flirt and an airhead and partly because he wants Keats for himself. Brown is the only member of Keats's circle who has more than a cameo, though there are affecting turns from Kerry Fox as the widowed Mrs. Brawne and Thomas Sangster and a scene-stealing Edie Martin as Fanny's younger brother and sister.

He dissected a 1989 Volkswagen Beetle and suspended the individual parts in mid air so that they resemble a 3-D assembly diagram. VIDEO: A preview of Damián Ortega's "Do It Yourself" at the ICA. "Damián Ortega: Do It Yourself" | Institute of Contemporary Art, 100 Northern Ave, Boston | Through January 18 Photos: "Damián Ortega: Do It Yourself" at the ICA. At the 2003 Venice Biennale, Damián Ortega presented what has become his signature sculpture, Cosmic Thing. He dissected a 1989 Volkswagen Beetle and suspended the individual parts in mid air so that they resemble a 3-D assembly diagram. It was an eye-catching floating monument to the end of manufacture of the Bug (not to be confused with the "New Beetle," which has been produced since 1994). It spoke of Ortega's native Mexico City, where the car was ubiquitous, kept on the road with parts cannibalized from other VWs. Ortega, who now splits his time between Mexico and Berlin, also saw it as representing the legacy of the Nazis. Adolf Hitler commissioned the Volkswagen as an affordable, durable "people's car" — exactly why the Beetle thrived in Mexico. Dividing the car into its component parts was Ortega's metaphor for atoms that make up molecules, for rocks and gases that combine to form galaxies, for the relationship between individuals and their societies. But mostly, it's a catchy cool showcase for a famously cute car. Included in "Do It Yourself," a 13-year survey of Ortega's art at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Cosmic Thing exemplifies both the strengths and the weaknesses of his style of conceptually based sculpture — and much conceptual art today. He hopes we'll read a lot into that Beetle, but he offers little to lead you to Mexico or Nazis or the cosmos. You're just supposed to recognize these associations and know that they are the intended ones. In practice, it works like a Rorschach test. You might find yourself making lots of associations; you might find yourself thinking it's just a car. The more I stare, the more I walk among its parts hovering in the air, the more the associations slide off and even the neato display begins to feel like a gimmick. Ortega began his artistic career drawing political cartoons for Mexican newspapers and magazines. But he grew frustrated by the short shelf life of his topical cartoons. "The next day the caricature maybe is less important," he tells me at the ICA's press opening. "And after three years, the cartoons have lost the life. It's a quality. It's like a fruit. But I would like to have a second reading of the same piece." So, in the mid 1990s, he transitioned to fine art. Still, the sculptures seen here in his first museum retrospective offer evidence of a lasting desire to analyze and critique society.

According to the Internet Movie Database, however, it is also the only one. Review: Bright Star. By Jeffrey Gantz. Bright Star is the best movie ever made about John Keats, the great Romantic poet who died at the age of 25. According to the Internet Movie Database, however, it is also the only one. "Really?" says Jane Campion, who has addressed equally tough topics in Sweetie (1989), An Angel at My Table (1990), and The Piano (1993). "Someone told me that there had been another one. But then again, there aren't many films about any poets at all. Except maybe Coleridge in Pandæmonium (2000)." Perhaps that's because the subjective experience of writing poetry does not readily lend itself to the objective medium of film.

"We will work hard for democracy, national reconciliation and human rights in Myanmar," Mr. Ban said as he convened a meeting of the Group of Friends on Myanmar, comprising 14 countries and one regional bloc. "The year 2010 will be a critical year for Myanmar. The first planned election in 20 years must be held in an inclusive and credible manner to advance prospects for stability, democracy and national development," he added in a <"http://www.un.org/apps/sg/sgstats.asp?nid=4097">statement read to the media by his Special Adviser, Ibrahim Gambari. Mr. Ban cited three important aspects for action by the Friends. First, they should urge Myanmar to work with the UN to ensure an inclusive process of dialogue and create the necessary conditions for credible elections. Second, they should uphold the UN role with regard to Myanmar's immediate and long-term challenges since the Organization has invaluable experience in fostering national reconciliation, promoting respect for human rights, supporting sustainable development and helping countries make the transition to democracy. Finally, they should signal the international community's willingness to help the people of Myanmar address the political, humanitarian and development challenges they face. As he did last week, Mr. Ban called the recent release of some political prisoners a step in the right direction, but one that did not go far enough. All political prisoners must be released, including democracy leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, he said. The Group of Friends, founded in December 2007, represents a balanced range of views on Myanmar and was established to hold informal discussions and develop shared approaches to support UN efforts. Its members are Australia, China, the European Union, France, India, Indonesia, Japan, Norway, Russia, Singapore, the Republic of Korea, Thailand, the United Kingdom, the United States and Viet Nam.

President Viktor Yushchenko <"http://www.un.org/ga/64/generaldebate/pdf/UA_en.pdf">told the General Assembly's annual General Debate that "uniform and clear rules" are needed to both fight pirates and to protect sailors from attacks. "It is not a local problem any more. It has become very dangerous and threatening all of us," Mr. Yushchenko said, citing statistics which show that in the past nine months alone, some 35 Ukrainian sailors have been taken hostage by pirates. The scourge of piracy has become better known over the last year following a series of high-profile attacks, especially in the waters off the coast of Somalia. The proposed anti-piracy office in Africa would be "a regional centre under the UN aegis which would bring under its umbrella specialized agencies, programmes and funds, as well as political offices to counter piracy," the President said. Ukraine – which has an estimated 70,000 citizens employed on ships under foreign flags – co-sponsored a resolution at the UN International Maritime Organization (<"http://www.imo.org/">IMO) against piracy, but Mr. Yushchenko emphasized that "the measures so far [taken by the international community] have not been sufficient." He said Ukraine believes the 192-member General Assembly "has to become a coordinating body for the efforts of all specialized institutions in this field. "We call for more active stance of those UN members which are main countries of origin of employed marine workers and of those States and organizations capable of making an impact on the safety of international maritime navigation." In addition, Mr. Yushchenko said the General Assembly should hold a separate meeting to debate issues concerning piracy.

"The only way to really tackle achieving the <"http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/">MDGs by the scheduled date of 2015 is for this General Assembly to help create the conditions for a real commitment by nations, governmental and non-governmental institutions to assume as a matter of urgency the tasks of economic and social development for peoples stricken by poverty, hunger, sickness and illiteracy," he said. Mr. Fernández called on the Assembly to declare "a state of emergency" in connection with the MDGs, which seek to slash these and a host of other ills, all by 2015, noting that an additional 400,000 children and tens of thousands of women will die each year because of the global financial crisis, according to UN World Health Organization (<"http://www.who.int/">WHO) figures. "Just today, while this session of the General Assembly of the most important organization in the world is being held, 25,000 children will die in various parts of the planet,' he said. "That means that one child dies every three seconds and 18 children every minute. At the end of my 15-minute speech before this plenary, 270 children whose deaths could have been avoided will have died." Mr. Fernández called on the 192-member body to consider new possible funding sources for the MDGs, proposing that a working group be set up to present an action plan for his suggested tax on tax havens. "It cannot be argued that there are not sufficient resources to confront this huge task [of funding the MDGs]," he declared. "The diligent way in which the collapse of the international financial system has been addressed show us something that has always been on the lips of the people, that 'when there's a will, there's a way'... "There are abundant resources in the world. What is happening is that they are distributed unequally and unjustly, and this is due, among other reason, to the existence of a global financial architecture prone to lack of transparency, secrecy, withholding of capital, evasion and fraud."

Michael Williams met with General Michel Aoun, the leader of the Reform and Change bloc in the Lebanese Parliament, with their talks focused on the delays to the formation of a government, the UN spokesperson's office reported. Lebanon held nationwide elections in June but its lawmakers have been unable to agree since then on the composition of a unity government, including a cabinet. Earlier this month Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon voiced concern about the impasse and encouraged all sides to continue their efforts to reach agreement. Mr. Williams said today after his discussions with Gen. Aoun that Lebanon is expected to soon take over one of the rotating seats on the Security Council "This is a very important role for Lebanon, which requires a fully functioning government that can follow up on many important international issues," he said.

Yesterday's summit was the largest-ever high-level gathering on the issue – attended by over 100 world leaders – and was part of Mr. Ban's efforts to mobilize momentum as governments work to 'seal the deal' on an ambitious new agreement to curb greenhouse gas emissions at the UN climate change conference to be held in December in Copenhagen, Denmark. "I think it's safe to say we achieved our goals," Robert Orr, Assistant Secretary-General for Policy Planning, told a news conference. "The summit did, most certainly, mobilize significant political will at the highest level and it did focus heads of State and government on the urgency for action." The summit also succeeded in accomplishing another major goal, he said, noting that "there was a serious and sustained dialogue between the most vulnerable and the major economies. "It was very striking how much the leaders agreed that they need to agree and can agree in Copenhagen. This was an important recognition by all the leaders present that a deal was possible and that they are going to work very hard to achieve it." In addition, a number of important announcements were made, including by Japan, which pledged to slash their emissions by 25 per cent by 2020, and Maldives, which said it intends to become climate-neutral by 2020. "One of the biggest outcomes of the day was that financing finally took centre stage," added Mr. Orr, noting that financing is the <i>sine qua non</i> of getting a successful deal in Copenhagen. He drew attention to a proposal put on the table yesterday for supporting a minimum of $100 billion per annum over the next decade, which many leaders rallied around. Janos Pasztor, Director of the Secretary-General's Climate Change Support Team, noted that at the working dinner hosted by Mr. Ban last night, leaders expressed a very clear willingness to work together and to make sure that they break the deadlock of trust between them. "They know that the trust that is not there is stopping them from agreeing on many of the core political issues that have been discussed now for some time. "They also discussed that they are willing to do much more than what they have been willing to agree to do in the context of the negotiations. That is an optimistic sign that agreement will be possible in Copenhagen," he added. In addition, the leaders said they were prepared to come together again before Copenhagen, depending on how negotiations go, with the Secretary-General stating that he is prepared to convene such a meeting, if desired. In a related development, the UN Environment Programme (<"http://www.unep.org/">UNEP) today announced that a number of groups – from cities and railways to postal services, industry and civil society organizations – have pledged to significantly reduce their carbon footprint and promote greener living by joining the UN Climate Neutral Network. "The growth of the climate neutral movement around the world is a clear sign that people from all walks of life are committed to solving the climate crisis and bringing about low-carbon economies and societies," said UNEP Executive Director-General Achim Steiner. "This groundswell of public support comes just weeks ahead of the crucial UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, where world leaders will have a unique opportunity to move our economies and societies onto a greener development path," he added. Launched in 2008, the UNEP-led Network has close to 100 participants worldwide, including several countries, cities, major international companies, UN agencies and leading non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Among the new groups joining forces with the Network are the University of California, Berkeley, and the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) located in Bangkok, Thailand, as well as the Universal Postal Union, the International Union of Railways and Japan Airlines. Also today, Mr. Ban paid <"http://www.un.org/apps/sg/sgstats.asp?nid=4090">tribute his Special Envoy on climate change and the former President of Botswana, Festus Mogae, on receiving the African Heritage Award. "I am particularly grateful to President Mogae for his passionate efforts to mobilize international action on climate change, one of the leading global challenges of our times. As he has rightly said, 'The stakes could not be higher.'"
