[UC] GOT KIDS? GOT TALENT?
CEDAR PARK NEIGHBORS will be running its annual fair on September 29 in Cedar Park, located between Baltimore Avenue and Catharine Streets and 49th and 50th Streets. This year CPN wants to encourage young artists and identify and provide some exposure to professional, visual artists as part of the activities and offerings that will be available at the Fair. Toward that end, CPN is soliciting art. KID ART We are hoping Schools, Day Cares and After School Centers, Home Schoolers and even private families will get on board to supply art and artists for Cedar Park. We are seeking paintings, drawings, photographs, prints, collages and /or digital art done by children younger than age of 18. Requirement are: 1. The artwork be less than or equal to 8.5 x 11 (standard letter size). 2. It may have horizontal (landscape) or vertical (portrait) orientation. 3. It must be donated on or before September 20, 2007. 4. The artists must be under 18 (or still in High School, if older). 5. Each artwork must be accompanied by a clearly printed (or typed) label that lists TITLE, NAME AND AGE OF ARTIST and SCHOOL AFFILIATION (if any). CPN will supply 'document frames' for the kid artworks. One of our volunteers will create a Web-site to document the donations and to celebrate the art and talent of our children. Another volunteer will frame the donations. The labeled Art will be on exhibit through the duration of the fair and the young artists will be recognized for their talents and contributions: on the Web site and by signage during the exhibit and by loudspeaker between music sets. The Artworks will be a hung along the black metal fence that surrounds the climbing area. If we get more donations than can be displayed on the fence, than overflow will be displayed in boxes along the fence, and hung as sales open spaces. We are hoping the artworks will Sell for donations of about $5.00 per picture. The proceeds will be used to support CPN's programs, including the Scholarship Fund. We hope the exhibit will be a happy, inviting and interesting backdrop and contribute to a fun 'meet and mingle' day at our neighborhood fair. I am prepared to pick up art from any teacher, school or program that wants to offer this opportunity in a classroom setting. PROFESSIONAL ART and CRAFT OPPORTUNITIES We hope more mature artists, talented Amatuers and serious Professionals will also participate in the fair. CPN is offering three options and artists may choose to do one or two or all three. 1. Post a Curriculum Vitae in a Ring Binder to be on display at the Fair and to become part of a list to become a resource for Artists and potential purchasers. Submit a single sheet, 8.5 x11 page that contains brief 'RESUME' and/or Agency details, along with a photo or self portrait and maybe some photos of samples of work. 2. Donate a Work that can be Auctioned off to benefit CPN. The Art Works will be photographed and the photo placed on a Web-site for bidding. Works will be displayed, on tables and clothes lines, during the Fair. CPN will run a Digital Silent Auction that will be capped off with final written bidding during the Fair. 3. Artists and Crafts People are encouraged to buy a table. The charge is $25.00 for a table with two chairs. Bring and sell whatever you want. If you LIVE, WORK or HAVE A SERIOUS AND CONTRIBUTORY INTEREST IN WEST PHILADELPHIA and are able and willing to participate in our embrace of art and artists, please let me know, off list. Thanks for your kind attention to this post. Please send private replies with comments, questions or to arrange donations and or table 'rental'. All the best! Liz Campion
Re: [UC] More robberies and assaults in University City
Hi Mark, You wrote the fact remains that residents of our neighborhood are accosted by men with guns on a very regular basis. I wrote: regular basis is hard to define and inflammatory. ... Not one of us in my immediate family has ever been robbed at gun point. Collectively, we have over 120 gun-crime free years. Not one of the new crimes you mentioned has any mention of gun involvement. It is not even clear if all of the suspects are men. They are notices, not indictments of any gender or class of human or neighborhood. And most interesting to me, all three occurred along the Campus edge and inside the Triply (UCD Security, Penn and City Police) protected Campus Zone, and not west of 46th Street, where I choose to live. I know many more people who have been injured in bike or auto accidents than by criminals. And, the injuries in the accidents have more severe than those suffered through the loss of a wallet or bag. I read your post as an attempt at thoughtful warning that could back fire into encouraging flight from or prophylaxis against the unlikely. I wanted to down play any fear of men or any exaggeration of crime by the use of the word regular. And I segued into an extension of your thoughtfulness by including the more likely hazards caused by an influx of drivers who might be lost, used to different signage, distracted. Now that I have clarified my context, perhaps you will agree that my contribution was at least as relevant to this discussion about gun point crime, as your suspect grabbed her bag. I think we both wish for the safety and well being of our neighbors and neighborhood. Best!

[UC] My turn to unsubscribe
I joined UCNeighbors soon after it started, because I knew a lot of good people were going there who were tired of being attacked on this listserv (as I have also been). But I figured I'd stay on the UnivCitylist and watch what happened. What I see are simultaneous discussions on the same topics on both lists, which seems silly and which overfills my in-box. But I also see UC Neighbors being the saner listserv, at least for me. There are a number of good people on the regular UC Listserv whose posts I will miss; maybe someday I'll see you over at UC Neighbors. And to those who are worried about the 'moderation' at UC Neighbors, it's so light as to be almost invisible. Maybe that's because people self-moderate, or because some folks who like to rant and rave and attack didn't join it. I don't know. I just know that it feels safer for me, so away I go.

[UC] Frustrated Phila. recycling coordinator quits suddenly
Frustrated Phila. recycling coordinator quits suddenly By Sandy Bauers INQUIRER STAFF WRITER In what recycling advocates say is a probably a case of abject frustration, Philadelphia's recycling coordinator has resigned. After only 18 months on the job, Joan Hicken last Friday sent a sarcastic note to associates saying, It's been a real . . . pleasure. An autoreply to e-mails sent to her city inbox reads, I will be out of the office starting 08/31/2007 and will not return until 12/31/2007. Actually, I won't be returning! Advocates see her departure as another sign of a troubled streets department that can't - or won't - move forward with recycling, despite estimates that it would save the city as much as $21.4 million in trash disposal costs. The city has one of the worst residential recycling rates among major cities - 7 percent at best, compared to 45 percent for Los Angeles. The Streets Department has not yet commented on Hickens' resignation. The city's first recycling coordinator, Maurice Sampson 2d, noted with chagrin what seems like a revolving door for recycling coordiators - five in just two decades. I was dismissed. Al Dezzi was ignored. Joan Batory was invisible. David Robinson was indicted, he said, ticking them off chronologically. Are we going to shoot the next one? What is the sequence of events here? Attempts to reach Hicken were unsuccessful. She was hired in March of 2006, after holding a similar position in Glendale, Ariz. There, she introduced single-stream recycling, considered more user-friendly because all recyclables can be put into one bin instead of separated. That was a purported goal in Philadelphia, where a two-year-old pilot project in West Oak Lane and Chestnut Hill has seen recycling rates as high as 50 percent. Now, however, recycling advocates see Hicken's tenure as a case of misalignment - a person with expertise and enthusiasm brought into a department that didn't think reycling on a broad scale was either doable or, perhaps as a consequence, a priority. I like to say that our trash system is the most modern you could have. In 1975, Sampson said. About the time she arrived, Hicken told a reporter for Public Works Magazine that the challenges and opportunities here are endless. Critics figure the first part, at least, was correct. Almost from the beginning, Hicken was seen as floundering and frustrated. Sampson met with her shortly after she started, when she was going through the kind of shock professionals go through when they come to Philly. Nine weeks into the job, she still had no city e-mail address. Sampson said she was struggling to understand her job, why it was so hard, and why she couldn't be allowed to be a professional . . . She talked about leaving. . . . She was very angry. Evan Belser, now a law student but formerly a recycling advocate with Clean Water Action and one of the people who recommended that Hicken be hired, also recalled that she felt hamstrung. She succeeded in expanding single-stream recycling here, but I think she knows very well she could have taken that step a lot further, Belser said. I think one of her bigger frustrations, which I gathered from lots of meetings, is that there is no overriding, well-organized goal for the city. No action plan. Last year when the city unveiled new recycling trucks, all the city honchos were front and center. Sampson remembers that Streets Commissioner Clarena I.W. Tolson even wore an outfit color-coordinated to match the trucks. But, he said, Hicken was on the fringe, taking photographs. That confused us. What's her job? Observers began to wonder who was doing the work, who was taking the credit, who was holding up further progress and why. That's the million-dollar question, Sampson said. All I can say is that bureaucracies exist to maintain the status quo. Nobody is ever fired for being mediocre. But they're fired all the time for being innovative. Christine Knapp, with Citizens for Pennsylvania's Future, sees Hicken's exit as a lost opportunity. She could have been valued. She was obviously a skilled person. Knapp added that almost nothing about the decisions that have been made in the department the last couple years have made sense . . . There's a lot of stop and go, smoke and mirrors, without a whole lot of accountability. Recycling advocates now wonder what's next. It's a concern that the city can't seem to hold someone in that position, said Emily Linn, a recycling advocate with the Clean Air Council. Even under a new administration, the city could well have a tough time finding a replacement for Hicken. We can't just keep hiring qualified professionals into a position that seems to squash them, Belser said. He suspects that most in the small pool of eligible professionals wouldn't touch this with a ten-foot pole. We can't expect that skillful people are going to show up wanting the job, if the
[UC] Inclusionary Housing Rally tomorrow 9/6
From Neighborhood Networks: Hello NNer's, The Philadelphia Campaign for Housing Justice (PCHJ), of which Neighborhood Networks is a longtime member, is holding a rally for Inclusionary Housing tomorrow, September 6 at 11:30 am at Dilworth Plaza, near the northwest corner of City Hall. Inclusionary housing is an affordable housing policy that requires builders of market-rate housing to include a small percentage of affordable housing units in their developments or to contribute to a fund dedicated to affordable housing in return for receiving tax and other benefits. It has been successfully adopted in over 300 cities around the country but not, so far, in Philadelphia. Whether you feel personally priced out of decent housing yourself or not, thousands of Philadelphians have no adequate place to live for themselves and their children. While builders get huge benefits and profits from building housing for the already well off, we need to ask them to also do something for those in desperate need. This program would do that. For more information about Inclusionary Housing you can go to the PCHJ website www.philahousingjustice.org. Whether you can come to the rally or not, please be sure to sign our petition in support of Inclusionary Housing at www.ipetitions.com/petition/HousingJustice/ Thanks for everything you do.

Re: [UC] Yet more help from Hollywood (was stickups on 43rd 45th streets)
I agree Joe. Our present crime problem is a social-orientation problem, and people who are reaping the monetary rewards don't care as long as they get richer. We cannot Stop The Violence; Stop The Madness because the socialization of children (AND their parents), has already been done. They don't know any better, and it will get worse. If they wish to hide behind the excuse of, The parents should monitor their children or shouldn't buy it, apparently they do not realize or don't care those kids parents are FAR from our parents. They know and are making LOTS of money without considering the consequences of greater society. I am sure people who saw Elvis or The Beatles had the same worries, but at LEAST they were educated.

Weren't they there then? - Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: University City List UnivCity@list.purple.com Sent: Tuesday, September 4, 2007 1:37:58 PM Subject: Re: [UC] 43rd and 42nd Streets: Two robberies at gunpoint last night Hello Ray: yikes. what time were these incidents?
