“Welcome to Ontario” (c) 1995 Ontario, Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Recreation You would be surprised knowing the story of this particular video clip. First time I saw it many years ago (around 1996) in Russia when multimedia stuff on PCs like video was rare. At that time I lived in Russia and was just dreaming about going abroad to study or work. Since that time I kept the video burnt on one of my CDs as an example of how professional video has to be done. 10 years later, I “found” that video on the old CD and uploaded it to Youtube. The difference this time was – I am a ?anadian citizen enjoying living in Canada. The video clip, sponsored by Ontario province government and created in Canada, made its way from Canada to Russia in 1996, then it flew back to Canada in 2001 and 10 years later (in 2006) was uploaded to Youtube so you all can see it. Isn’t it amazing? I consider this video clip as symbolic pride of the country where we can live freely and secure, pride of achieving our goals when we are really passionate about them. This is a great example of how our “vision” makes dreams come true…

Question by jordana_bby: What are some UNIVERSITIES in ONTARIO, CANADA that have good graphic art programs?
I am interested in going into a graphic arts program, but I would like it to be a bit more broad. I hope to one day work for the media, most preferably in new media for a record label.
Is a graphic art degree the right route for this degree? If so, what are some good programs in Ontario, Canada and the university?
They do not have to be specifically graphic arts, for example, I am considering Media, Information and Technoculture at Western University.
Thanks!

If you goal is to eventually get into television or radio ryerson is the best choice. They have direct connections in the industry. Remember that your focus is employ-ability after you get your degree. Number 1 school is U of T for general overall notoriety. Number 1 school for business is Schulc. Number 1 school for. Engineering is Waterloo. Google ryerson I’m sure you will find what your looking for. There is an open house this Saturday. Good luck!

Our Home: Streetsville (Mississauga), Ontario, Canada


Image by bill barber
Today is a glorious day, so I needed to get away from the Rhine for a bit. Took the camera out

Our home was built by Samuel Brookbank in 1859. Brookbank was a house framer, so this house is fairly over-built. The Brookbanks raised ten kids in this place. Don’t know where the hell they all slept. The front gable window lights my office, which was my daughter, Meg’s, bedroom. My daughter, Jess, slept in a room on the north side (not visible). The master bedroom is lit by the two upper side windows on the driveway side. The bottom bay window lights the living room. We always put the Christmas tree in the bay window. The summer kitchen at the back was added in 1910, and is now the dining area.

KLM Coming In To Toronto Pearson International Airport / Mississauga / Ontario

This plane is further away than it looks, but it’s still not that far away. View large, The image was taken with a 70-300mm lens

Toronto Pearson is actually located in eastern Mississauga, on the site of the old village of Malton, about six or seven miles from here. We’re close to, but not under, the flight path, so we don’t get the ear-splitting noise that people a mile or so north of us do.

Wikipedia Article on KLM
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KLM
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines (Dutch: Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij, literally Royal Aviation Company; usual English: Royal Dutch Airlines) is the national airline of the Netherlands and is part of Air France-KLM based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. It operates domestic and worldwide scheduled passenger and cargo services to more than 90 destinations. Its main base is Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.[1] KLM is the oldest airline in the world still operating under its original name. It has 30,118 employees (as of March 2007).[1]

The merging of KLM with Air France in May 2004 created Air France-KLM. Air France-KLM is incorporated under French law with headquarters at Roissy-Charles de Gaulle Airport near Paris, France. Both Air France and KLM continue to fly under their distinct brand names.

Air France-KLM is part of the SkyTeam alliance with Delta Air Lines, Aeroméxico, Korean Air, Czech Airlines, Alitalia, Northwest Airlines, Aeroflot, China Southern Airlines and Continental Airlines.

PhotoShop Elements 5: sharpen, posterization, sandstone filter
The circle pattern was not planned. The posterization created it without prompting. It seems to have split what would have been a natural gradient. I liked it, so I left it. The sandstone filter created a strong concrete texture that I found rather appealing. I do like to post process as you know, but I usually don’t get this wild. The whole thing just seemed to work.

Stade Delormier Downs (Ontario et De Lorimier), Montréal


Image by Montréal Blues
On en parle peu, mais les plus vieux d’entre nous savent que ce lieu a été jadis mythique pour plusieurs raisons.

Les Royaux de Montréal de la Ligue Internationale de baseball y disputaient leurs parties dans ce stade de 28.000 personnes au coin d’Ontario et De Lorimier dans l’est de Montréal. Si vous regardez bien le stade, cela aurait été parfait pour les Expos s’ils étaient encore de ce monde…

Pendant plus de 30 ans, ce stade a eu sa part d’émotions, dont les championnats de baseball gagnés par les Royaux, et aussi marqué par les débuts du premier joueur de couleur à évoluer dans les ligues Majeures (autres que les Negro Leagues), soit Jackie Robinson. Un soir qu’il a été le héros, il a été surpris que les gens courrant après lui sont venus le féliciter au lieu de l’invectiver. Le baseball avait pris un grand pas pour les droits égaux de la personne. Aussi, les succès des Royaux se reflétaient sur leur grand frère, les Dodgers de Brooklyn (Los Angeles), car leur Série Mondiale gagnée en 1955 fût gagnée avec une majorité d’anciens Royaux dans leur équipe…

Autres joueurs qui ont marqué les Royaux: Tommy LaSorda, Duke Snider et Chuck Connors…

Aussi les Alouettes de la Ligue canadienne de football ont joué leurs matchs dans ce stade. En plus de galas de lutte en été, mettant en vedette le regretté champion Yvon Robert, ainsi que des événements dont la visite du roi George VI d’Angleterre…

Lorsque les Royaux sont disparus au début des années 60, le stade à l’abandon a été un entrepôt de meubles, puis démoli vu que trop vétuste, la Commission des Écoles Catholiques ont décidé de bâtir une Polyvalente sur le site.

De nos jours, un espace incognito marque l’endroit dans laquelle le stade était. Il y avait une statue de Jackie Robinson, mais elle fût déménagée au Parc Olympique. Il faudrait que la Ville de Montréal rehausse cet espace et en fasse un monument d’un stade qui a été quand même aussi mythique que le Forum de Montréal à une certaine époque…
