Marguerite Pigeon has two jobs, she produces television shows and she is as human rights observer, computer-skills enabler, writer, and general link to the outside world for the COPINH (Civic Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras).

Marguerite said that her first job gives her comfort, good coffee, she goes out a lot, and she summarizes that in these words ”I’m a comfortable cog in the wheels of Canadian capitalism”. 

But now she’s a volunteering with an indigenous rights group – lattes and boots a world away.

The town she lives in is called La Esperanza.By Honduran standards, it is prosperous. By any Canadian measure, it is dusty and ill-equipped. Her work in that town at the headquarters of a group called COPINH – a Spanish acronym for the Civic Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras. Her job here is as human rights observer, computer-skills enabler, writer, and general link to the outside world. She unpaind and her days now often include long trips to the capital city where we attend meetings with government officials.

Joe The Shoe cobbles in the basement of an office tower on the edge of Toronto‘s entertainment district. He has repaired shoes for Sissy Spacek, Mickey Rooney, Jennifer Lopez, Leslie Neilsen; he once put carbide bits in the heels of Samuel Jackson’s Guccis, so the American star could walk on Canadian ice with confidence. As you might expect, show folk are particular about what they put on their feet.

• Father Joe

http://www.cbc.ca/news/work/workculture/2642.html

Father Joe MacDonald is a modest man with a quiet manner. He has a neat white beard and a wispy, male-pattern tonsure, which suits him fine: he is, after all, a Capuchin friar.

In spite of the heart attack, he continues with his work. He supervises the home, says mass, conducts funerals and retreats, provides counseling and on Saturday nights he delivers hot soup to the men and women who sleep on the street.

• Joe Star

He was a happy-go-lucky kid who grew up in the Sixties in Lyons and he liked to listen to popular music on the radio, liked to sing along, and liked the way it made him feel. And then one day he heard rock ‘n’ roll. He creates a band, Joe Star Band. Joe and the boys have an eclectic repertoire: a little jazz, a little salsa, the usual Top 40 hits, all the standards.

• Joe Auto

Joe Vicente has been an auto-body man for over 30 years; he’s very good. Joe Vicente learned the auto body business in Portugal. He didn’t spend time in trade school. His father knew a guy who had a body shop; his mother was a friend of that man’s wife; the man agreed to give little Joe a job. He was 13 years old then; he’s 60 now. He may not have much in the way of formal education, but he knows one or two things you won’t find in a book.

In this text there are describing and explaining the work in a food terminal, they say that the must be there very soon, like 4:30 a.m. Sometimes they have problems like a trunk there is late, or for example a truckload of oranges are running late, and won’t arrive until most of the day’s buyers have gone. He’ll miss a day’s sales. Where’s the truck- On the highway somewhere. When’s it due- Soon.

this text talked about he time the employers where in front of big machines working 8 hour a day in a place far away from home, and they compare that age that passed from that type of line to our age, the online age, the computer age, the cel phone age.

Bruno was born in Milano, Italy, in 1938; he produced three animated feature films “West& Soda”, “Vip my brother superman”, “Allegro non troppo” and many animated shorts. He has been awarded many prizes among which the Golden Bear to “Mister Tao” at the Berlin Film Festival in 1990 and the Oscar nomination to “Grasshoppers” in 1991. Together with Piero Angela he has also directed a hundred animated shorts of educational scientific matter. Bruno Bozzetto’s best known character is Mister Rossi. Since 2000 he has been devoting his time to flash animations for the web gaining great success.       

This flash animation shows us this difference between Italy and the rest of Europe; it shows in a very humorous way the differences between the Italian behavior and the European one. The cartoon is divided in different ways of behavior; we can divide those subjects on groups. First of all we have respect of traffic’s rules, than a group of sciences politic and finally current life.    

 Respect of traffic’s rules groups ” highway, parking 1 and 2, pedestrian crossing, road signals and bus”. This part of the flash show us that the European respect all the rules, for example, on the pedestrian crossing subject, the cars wait for the pedestrian to cross the line, in the Italian side, the Italian pedestrian before crossing the line observe if there are cars coming, and when he tried to cross the route a car almost run over him, the pedestrian insult the car, in the end, the pedestrian can’t cross the route because of the cars, they don’t respect the pedestrian.    

  Than we have the second group, sciences politics. In this group are the subjects, elections, politics and bureaucracy. In this branch of the movie we can see how the Italian people are messed up. The bureaucracy it’s very complicated and in the end they didn’t get what they wanted. This group demonstrates the complexity of the politic and let everybody see the absence of opinion, because in the movie when one of the candidates wins everyone chooses this one. The European’s bureaucracy is simple, and they have they own opinion.    And finally, the last group, ”current life”. Here it’s expose the organization, the different tastes and the behavior on publics places.

Scouting started in 1907, with an experimental camp on Brownsea Island in the UK for 20 boys from a wide variety of social backgrounds.

Today, Scouting is a million times bigger than when it first started. It involves girls and boys, men and women from every race, religion and culture, and nearly every country in the world.  

In 2007, Scouting celebrates its worldwide Centenary. This is an opportunity to promote the values, benefits and achievements of Scouting to the world, and also for the millions of Scouts around the world to make a real difference to the lives of others through their Centenary activities.

The single theme for all events and activities for the Centenary of Scouting and the 21st World Scout Jamboree is: 2007: One World One Promise.
