ASK on Earth Hour: 2009 - According to GORF: Earth Hour is 60 Minutes of Wasted Time.
Update for 2009. With no thoughts changing on this ludicrous Event since last year, the following is a detailed BLOG on how that extra hour can be better used to the greater cause of the Planet and its People and Creatures that call it home.
Original posted onFriday, March 28, 2008
According to GORF: Earth Hour is 60 Minutes of Wasted Time.
GORF
deemed as:
‘Chicago’s First Green Mascot’
‘Illinois’ Foremost Goodwill Toy Ambassador’
‘America’s Greenest Mascot’ &
‘Mankind’s Most Beloved Toy’
states that Earth Hour (sponsored by the World Wildlife Fund – http://www.earthhour.org/) is slated as the ‘Darkest Hour’ when people (in some 217 Cities across the Planet) are urged to turn off all the(ir) lights (in their homes and businesses both) to make a Collective Statement about Climate Change.
However, at this highly pivotal point in Fleeting Time (March of 2008), smart and savvy People (which We all like to be known as) already know that Statements have been made; much work has been done and We consciously know that certain precautions must be taken to save our Environment…or else.
"Turning off the lights is ludicrous," states THE FROG, a Species that has spent 217 million years on Earth, even outliving the Mighty Dinosaur.
TO CONTINUE:
Q: Are hospitals turning off lights and respiration machines?
Q: If an emergency ambulance vehicle is racing off to a hospital on a dark city street, could it be the cause of a worse accident or paralyzing experience?
It’s been a known Fact for decades (by Criminologists and Sociologists) now that once the ‘lights go off’ the Crime Rates rises. City Streets are hazardous enough not to keep ‘the lights on’ for that reason alone.
The only Positive that could beneficially come of this Event is that 9 months later, a slew of Babies will be born. A few cents will be saved on the month's Com Edison Tab.
“This Green/Eco Concept was NOT thought out well enough…at all,” GORF summarizes. “It would be better if for that Designated Hour, Retail Stores gave Energy-Efficient Light Bulbs away, which by all standards, are extremely expensive to the average American - European - Asian - African and Chicagoan these Days."
PART OF THE GORFian PLAN:
“If you do want to make a Difference – a significant One – instead of turning off the Lights on Saturday, March 29, 2008 from 8-9 PM, GORF suggests that the Hours be changed from 8-9 AM when Individuals and Families (both) clean up their neighborhoods; plant a flower bed and/or clean out a closet. That Practice is much more do-able and can be completed in ‘broad daylight’ without using a single light-bulb and potentially causing more havoc than the Planet or its People really need. Plus, once an Exercise like this is started, it can last many more Hours – than a nightly Event which is quite tiring to those who have been ‘up’ for most of the Day.”
GORF (a/k/a: THE GRIN REAPER ®) is the Brainchild of Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith, a Chicago Personality known as 'America's Premier Eventologist' (by Insight Magazine of Washington, DC in August of 1997) who has deemed:
2006-2016
as THE DECADE OF THE FROG with GORF officiating.
For more ecoGreen GORFisms ® on Nature;

To reiterate:
ACCORDING TO GORF: "Earth Hour is 60 Minutes of Wasted Time."
If anything useful does come of this Event, perhaps the Media Coverage devoted to this 'Hour' will spur you to think and develop your own ways on dealing with and focusing on how to empower the Earth.

The Energizer® Keep Going® Hall of Fame 2008 searches for Individuals of Perseverence & Determination
Energizer® Keep Going® Hall of Fame
A FIRST HAND ACCOUNT
How ADRIENNE SIOUX KOOPERSMITH*
embodies Perseverance & Determination
Visualization is what one of the Contributors at my Tuesday Writer’s Group says about the Art of Writing. With that in mind, when I reread the Entry Statement to Energizer’s Hall of Fame Contest (previously backed by the context of a highly ailing and recessionary Economy where the Bear in Bear Stearns whimpered out of control last week), I ‘envisioned’ (thanks to this applicable Method), the rosy Rabbit rising like a Phoenix, each Day no matter what The Odds are.
Despite the Weather…
Despite Monetary Enslavement…
Despite Parental Control…
Despite reckless Relationships…
Despite Neglect, Rejection & Abandonment… and
Despite that 3RD helping of Mashed Potatoes,
there you have it. Another Contest that seeks to single-out an Individual who tries their hardest and darndest to succeed, regardless of the complicating Odds that he or she is facing.
The Focal Point of The eBunny (that’s my new Nomenclature for the “Energizer Bunny” in an Electronic Age) is that “The Hare” is backed by a solid Product Line that keeps beating to the Sounds of his own Drum and thus powers-up People’s Lives in every Direction possible, making N.E.W.S. (that is: North – East – West – South).
Is HARENERGIZER ® the only Pop Culture Icon found in Wikipedia?
Possibly not, but HARENERGIZER ® (another Koopersmithian Ad Term) definitely has a Fan Base of Billions of Satisfied Customers over the last Two Decades. This Fact must bring a Smile of Pleasure and Reassurance (both) to those who work with The eBunny every Day…from the Upper Echelon Magnets like William P., Ward and J. Patrick to the Paint Company that carefully and methodically stirs the correct Amounts of Red and White Dyes to arrive at the exact Hue-Tone The Bunny is immediately identified by.
There’s never been an eBunny Recall.
That Fact alone is enough of a Marketing Strategy that could hop away with High Honors and Awards at any Electronics Show(place). And you read it here F.I.R.S.T., Folks.
Easter arrives early this year…
‘THE ENERGIZER’s KEEP YOU GOING HALL OF FAME CONTEST’ closes on the First Full Day of Spring on Good Friday and Purim, Two (2) Days shy of Easter Sunday. The Bunny, no doubt, crosses over to all Peoples which is reassuring as Energy is needed by Everyone these Days. Multi-Tasking can and really does wear a Person out and takes its Toll. Entire Magazines, Newsreels and Blogs are penned about the Topic of Fatigue and Tiredness.
HOW I PERCEIVE THE ENERGIZER EXPERIENCE: By subtlety and subliminally even using the Word ‘Energizer’ on a Product Line or Brand, an Individual is instantly powered-up to know that the Best is yet to come in an invigorating and vibrant manner.
AN IMPORTANT HISTORICAL LESSON:
While growing up, Baby Boys would receive Blue Toys. Baby Girls would find their Cribs filled with Pink Toys. Some Parents cautiously stuck to White or Yellow Toys, but no matter what Bunny, Bear, Cat or Dog Toys are, their Popularity is as prevalent now as it was Generations ago.
One of my first Stuffed Toys was a Pink Bunny haunched on his back two paws who is now 50 years old, a glorious Vintage Relic by all means. “BUNN” happily and proudly sits in my Toy Room known as The PROP-a-torium ® as I’m a TOY Stylist and (needless to say) is one of the Motivational Start-Ups of my Day.
FLAW OR FLAIR?
Obsessed with Self and Self-Preservation, I find that I’m the Perkiest Person I know. I’ve been told that ‘Comment’ for Decades by Teachers, Co-Workers, Friends and Relatives. Even Strangers I’ve met on-the-street can easily and immediately tell that Disposition by my Special(ized) Way of Speaking and Conducting myself. It’s not an Act, a Show or a Put-On. I’m just raw Brunette Ambition-in-Action who, throughout the Decades of Growth & Discovery, never:
Smoked
Drank
Over-ate,
allowing me to be as resourceful, clear-minded, creative and high-powered as The Energizer Bunny ® without fail. Up at The Crack of Dawn, I schedule a full-day which is always taken in stride as I peddle around Chicago on my Bike…bright Pink, of course.
‘ALL SYSTEMS GO’ is how We should run our Days. Today, with the Green Movement of:
Recycling, Reusing & Recharging
in full swing, there’s no better Avenue for a Person to be ‘fully energized’ like the pink ‘n peppy eBunny himself as they pursue and undertake their (own) Plans and Projects.
THE PERTINENT QUESTION OF THE DAY IS:
Could the Energizer Bunny (known as E.B. to his Friends and Chief Bunny Officer) begin his own ecoGREEN Program? Most definitely. “THE PINK ENERGIZER BUNNY GOES GREEN” definitely would grab the Media’s Attention.
Peering back over the last 18 Years alone, I’ve had created 50 Books/Manuscripts and have launched Literary and Humanitarian Campaigns as:
Cartoonists Against Crime ©1991
Cartoonists Against Terrorism ©2001
Eventology ® with 1,700+ HOLIDATES ® attached
“Things (just) don’t get done, they get done with Charisma,
Action and Appeal paid to the fine(st) Points.”
&
“Things don’t get done:
Life isn’t lived to its fullest if you are not energized.”
Quote of: ASK
Wednesday, March 19, 2008 – 7:51 AM
The Patterns We set and make for Ourselves show how We’ve lived our Life. Being as energized as the nimble eBunny and ‘BUNN’, my very own Pink Toy Rabbit (that’s been Part & Parcel of Adrienne’s Antiques And Attic for a very long time) fervently verify that every Day rocks, rolls and reels with pure Energy (NRG).
E.B. MEET TY. TY MEET E.B.:
For someone who’s already been discovered, is beloved and represents a fine Example of a Person(ality) who boldly embodies Perseverance and Determination, just flick your Remote Control to ABC Channel 7 on Sunday Evenings with Ty Pennington of Extreme Home Makeover. There’s an Individual who is so charged up on Life that he (by far) makes most People ‘exhausted’ just by watching him on his pre-taped Program.
LEAVE IT TO ANTHROPOMORPHISM:
The Energizer Bunny ® is in the Company of other Furry Greats. To keep in balance with The Spring Season, to name a few others from the Historical Lot of Hares and Rabbits, We have:
Bionic Rabbit, Brer Rabbit, Bugs Bunny, Bunnicula, Bunny Rabbit, Buster Bunny, Captain Carrot, Crusader Rabbit, the Easter Bunny, Fluffytail, Frank, Funny Bunnies, Jessica Rabbit, Lola Bunny, Mr. Bun, Mr. Floppy, the Nesquik Rabbit, Ninja Rabbits, Peppy Hare, Peter Cottontail, Peter Rabbit, Reader Rabbit, Ricochet Rabbit, Robo-Rabbit, Roger Rabbit, The Trix Rabbit, The Velveteen Rabbit, The White Rabbit, Thumper and Wonder Wabbit.
From the Science Annals, We see that the Rabbit Order is: Lagomorpha
The Rabbit’s Family is: Leporidae
The Rabbit’s Genus is: Oryctolagus
The Rabbit’s Species is: cuniculus
Lago is Greek for Rabbit. Lepus is Latin for Hare. Cuniculus is Latin for Rabbit.
Then, of course, there’s the Pink Panther, but he’s not in the same Energizing Class as E.B. is!
TALLYING UP THE YEARS
&
FROM THE MOUTHS OF OTHERS: (No Payoffs here).
Probably one of the nicest and most sincere Compliments I’ve received from many People (throughout the years) is that I don’t look my Age. As of March, 2008, many of these People have erased 28 years off my Life; however, I have enjoyed each Day, Month, Year and Decade via my own Plan of Verve, Vim, Vigor & Energy (which evidently works).
E.B.’s Motto may be: KEEP GOING but here on West Rosemont (which seems to be an appropriate Color for the Street that I live on), I prefer revising the Slogan to:
“KEEP GOING STRONG.”
“The Gene for Childhood Exuberance
has carried over with me into Adulthood…
with that same unyielding Momentum, Courage, Finesse and Discipline
The Energizer Bunny ® has.
That’s the Best Company to keep company with.”
Quote of: ASK: ADRIENNE SIOUX KOOPERSMITH
Thursday, March 20, 2008 - 8:32 AM CST
ROLE MODELS WHO ARE ‘IN THE PINK’: Furthermore, with both Eyes intently gazing into The Future, I insist and intend to persistently be as energized as I have been…like the Energizer Bunny, a fine Model to jump-start every Day left. Who could ‘ask’ for more?

Lowell Thompson speaks. Eliminating Invisibility across The American Art Scene.
Chicago, IL USA: One of the top American Artists today is LOWELL THOMPSON, a life-long resident of Chicago, IL, the City the World is now watching. And tonight, you will be able to hear Mr. Thompson speak at the Art Institute expressing a controversial topic that is not only 'racial' in character, but economic as well as artistic.
Below is the Press Release he recently emailed out for all the pertinent info you need to either:
1) attend or
2) write an Article on Lowell's Theories.
Additionally, Lowell is the Artist who has drawn one of the finest Portraits of US President Barack Obama, one that (no less) should be hanging in the Art Institute where he will be featured this evening.
EVENT: The Invisible Artist: "Creators From Chicago's Southside"
TIME: Thursday, March 26, 6pm
LOCALE: The School of the Art Institute Ballroom, 112 S. Michigan Av., Chicago, IL
MEDIA RELEASE:
Lowell Thompson is a Chicago artist/writer/"artivist" who has raised the issue of racial "artpartheid" in commercial and fine arts for years. He'll be part of the panel, "The Invisible Artist: Creators From Chicago's Southside" Thursday, March 26, 6pm, at at The School of the Art Institute Ballroom, 112 S. Michigan.
Thompson says, "The downtown Chicago and Northside art world has always kept non-white artists invisible and voiceless. And remarkably, even though "un-colored" people make up less than 30% of Chicago proper's population, they do it with little worry of being challenged by African-Americans.
I'd guess whites control and are featured in over 95% of all art exhibitions, galleries covered in Chicago's major newspapers, magazines, TV and radio. The so-called mainstream media is not only silent about this, they're complicit in it. No wonder they're losing readers. They're still covering yesterday's news.
And colleges like the School of the Art Institute are still "mis-educating their students by teaching them that there are no important African-American artists -in Chicago (or anywhere else, for that matter). This, in a city that has been and still is the home of African-Americans whose creativity has helped change the world. Why is it that the Louis Armstrongs, Richard Wrights, Gwendolyn Brookses, Sam Cookes, Nat King Coles (not to mention the Herbie Hancocks, Quency Joneses, Kanye Wests, R. Kellys, Commons, etc.) of Chicago's fine art world are so ignored?
What's most remarkable is that Black Chicagoans allow this to continue even in a time when the President of the United States is not only Black, but from the very side of town that white Chicago insists doesn't exist."

Below is the Press Release he recently emailed out for all the pertinent info you need to either:
1) attend or
2) write an Article on Lowell's Theories.
Additionally, Lowell is the Artist who has drawn one of the finest Portraits of US President Barack Obama, one that (no less) should be hanging in the Art Institute where he will be featured this evening.
EVENT: The Invisible Artist: "Creators From Chicago's Southside"
TIME: Thursday, March 26, 6pm
LOCALE: The School of the Art Institute Ballroom, 112 S. Michigan Av., Chicago, IL
MEDIA RELEASE:
Lowell Thompson is a Chicago artist/writer/"artivist" who has raised the issue of racial "artpartheid" in commercial and fine arts for years. He'll be part of the panel, "The Invisible Artist: Creators From Chicago's Southside" Thursday, March 26, 6pm, at at The School of the Art Institute Ballroom, 112 S. Michigan.
Thompson says, "The downtown Chicago and Northside art world has always kept non-white artists invisible and voiceless. And remarkably, even though "un-colored" people make up less than 30% of Chicago proper's population, they do it with little worry of being challenged by African-Americans.
I'd guess whites control and are featured in over 95% of all art exhibitions, galleries covered in Chicago's major newspapers, magazines, TV and radio. The so-called mainstream media is not only silent about this, they're complicit in it. No wonder they're losing readers. They're still covering yesterday's news.

Chalking up 1700 Miles...for the 12TH Official Faux Fur Friday...
Chicago, IL USA: Even with a broken Pedometer, on Wednesday, March 18, 2009, I was able to reach 1700 Miles on my Bike. It was at the Intersection of Chicago Avenue and South Blvd. in Evanston -- 5 PM around Supper Time. With Spring officially being here in Chicago land as of today, the 12TH Faux Fur Friday of 2009, it's reassuring to know that full-flung Exercising is just a few weeks away, for those Fair Weather Enthusiasts.

Faux Fur Friday; Friday The 13: Intl Skeptics Day & a Full Moon...
Chicago, IL USA: Just another day in Chicagoland USA. Judging from the Calendar, it is FRIDAY:
Translated that means it's
the 11TH Faux Fur Friday for those who adore the wearing of Faux Fur, replacing real fur and saving Little & Big Creatures Lives;
It's the 13TH of the month. Only 4 13THS fall in any given Year. That automatically signifies that: EVENTOLOGICALLY it is an
International Skeptics Day (C)1996
a HOLIDATE I created back in 1996 for those who are skeptical amongst the Human Population.
and this AM when I woke up, I stepped out onto the back porch to see the FULLEST FULL MOON I've seen yet this year. Therefore, with a line-up like that, it's bound to be yet another Special Day -- that is, of course, if you make it that way. Four out of 4 are not bad odds.

Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith ON Domestic Violence. As sent to Oprah Winfrey.
Dear Oprah and Staffers:
Your upcoming show about Rihanna and Domestic Violence against Women has struck a chord with me as I was a victim in Oct. 1988-Feb. 1989. I have a picture of how my 'then-boyfriend' beat me up. If it wasn't through logic and a terrific boss, Mr. Drew Horwitz who is now one of the leading men in Chicago Radio, I may have ended up in my grave, prematurely early of course. After that, I was beat up, robbed and left for dead in the lobby of my home -- on the north side of Chicago. At which time, I began a Crerative Crusade called CARTOONISTS AGAINST CRIME (C)91 where I had cartoonists from across the world help me to TOON OUT CRIME. Mayor Daley even hopped on my bandwagon and made Oct. 25 CARTOONISTS AGAINST CRIME Day.
Today, some 20 years later, I see that:
#1: Domestic Violence (even that done to men by angry women who are out of control) will escalate. After all, it all deals with MONEY and with more and more people getting laid off, the numbers who are going to get baaten if not killed will escalate. That seems to be common sense to me.
#2: If you are attracted to a MATE who shows 'signs' of domestic abuse, chances are if you leave that relationship, you will look and FIND another one who exhibits those characteristics again. It deals with having a strong MALE figure in the family. With so many families lacking in this area, it's easy to see why so many women (and men) are either the VICTIM or VICTIMIZER.
#3: Add in drugs and drinking and in-home fighting is a natural occurrence. I often watch TV News showing the tons and tons of DRUGS that are being shipped into America. These are not just being consumed by druggies on the west side or hookers and pimps on the bad side of town. There are all varieties of WHITE COLLAR folks that crosses all financial means who are hooked on drugs/drinking. These alter a person's take on the world and then violence again enters the picture.
#4: It is especiallysad for young children in the family as they are so easily impressionable.
It's a circle of despair that is not being helped at all by this economy. With more and more people losing their homes to foreclosure and becoming homeless and distraught...having the AMERICAN DREAM go up in a puff of smoke, I predict VIOLENCE of all kinds (in schools, on jobs -- going postal) will become an every day occurrence.
And in a way, it's already begun.
If you'd like more of my IN YOUR FACE comments, just give me a call or email. I hope more programs like yours will air. It doesn't matter if you're a material girl, a singer or a person who just lives on a quiet block on the north side of Chicago -- Violence is here and it needs to be eliminated ONCE & FOR ALL People.
Thanks, Oprah!

3-6-9 Marks Koopersmith's 10TH FAUX FUR FRIDAY
Chicago, IL USA: This legendary mathematical date marks the Tenth Celebration of Faux Fur Friday which began as a way to get in style without hurting any creatures that share the planet with us. As it grows, it teaches valuable lessons along the way. Today, as the weather begins to change and is growing warmer, some folks will be putting their Faux Furs away, but it's the pattern that counts while shopping for your Spring Ensemble of fine Faux Fur Garments. It's a pattern that looks as good knitted as it does on a piece of polyester - whether the calendar says it's March or November. It's also a design that most people keep -- whereby plaids and argyles are not as popular as FAUX FUR.
And on that note, to celebrate the 10TH FAUX FUR FRIDAY by indulging in and kickstarting the economy. Looking good is just one way to feel the FAUX.

From The Founder, A.S. KOOPERSMITH -- of HUG A. G.I. DAY...a few Choice Words.
Chicago, IL USA: March the Fourth, the only date in Calendrical Time is finally here initialzing the 14TH Year commemoration of one of my most beloved HOLIDATES:
HUG A G.I. DAY (C)1996
which salutes those who have gone above and beyond the norm in serving their Country. Not only does this include those soldiers and infrintry men and women in the USA but in countries abroad who fight for what they believe in.
Everyone is someone's child and although WAR is not well-thought of by Peace-a-tarians as myself, salutng those who fight to make right is an Eventological Pre-requisite.
To those who fall into this Category, I wish them a happy HUG.

Koopersmith on Racism in Chicago. The White, Black & Gray of it.
Chicago, IL USA: With so many books being published, you'd think there would be more studies done on why People are racist? Living in a big city, the Prejudice begins early, as children go to school and see others. Either they have IT or they don't have it. If one 'Race' has the TOY, and another doesn't a certain amount of Yearning begins to formulate. It's a sad commentary, but all so true. This continues on through Life and the Mark is left not only between People, but also can be found between the Genders, men and women as well as sexual persuasion -- that is, Gay vs. Straights, as well as Young Old and those somewhere lost in-between.
With an economy that is running out of control and people struggling, you would think that their GOODness Gene would kick in and help alleviate the Pain and Discrepancies that are eating up the Human Race. After all, it is the Human Race and none other, if you want to draw precise conclusions. If Mankind all turned blind, would he suddenly not become racist. That's an interesting question. Smell may become the latest 'decisive' element that causes a rift between People. Hopefully a severe situation will not have to happen to bind Men of all Colors together, but then -- if that is what it takes to open their eyes, that may be Man's only Savings' Grace.

Get your Motor runnin...
Chicago, IL USA: The Calendar now states that it is March 1. For those of us in the Midwest, it has been the harshest of winters in over a decade. However, with the turn of a page - a new month signfifies that the weather is about to change and that Spring is definitely in the air, even if it's snowing, the wind is howling and we're still layering up.
By March, most of us who have sworn to stick to our Resolutions even HAVE stuck to them or haven't. For those who have fallen off the 'bandwagon' - it's still not to late to start keeping healthier habits. I , for one, am going to eat ONLY oatmeal for breakfast for the next 31 days. It's filling - it even stops my cravings for a 10 AM snack and it fills the hunger spot every time I want a good breakfast meal. Hopefully, it too, will help me take off a few additional pounds that I put on due to more inactivity this past Winter than in previous ones.
And with that in mind -- it's time to get out and explore more; eat less and write more as we 'MARCH' into a new Segment of 2009.
