Chicago, IL USA

The 18TH Year on The 18TH Day of the Month. If that doesn’t call for a Double Dose of SPLURGING, then I don’t know what does!

That’s because: Saturday, June 18, 2011 marks the 18TH Anniversary of NATIONAL SPLURGE DAY ©1994, 1 of my favorite & most popular HOLIDATES TO CELEBRATE® that I created back during that other century & millennium.

Being touted as:

‘America’s Premier Eventologist’
per Gene Koprowski of Insight Magazine in Washington, DC in August, 1997

&

‘The Premier Eventologist in The History of The World’
per Eric Zorn of The Chicago Tribune in Chicago, IL – January, 2001

Events like these that fall under the Auspices of:

EVENTOLOGY ®
The Art Of Event-Making
Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith’s Campaigns For Humanity ©1990.

Throughout the last 21 years of being the leading Eventologist, I have seen how these Pop Culture HOLIDATES grow and influence others, while they also keep up with the changing times.

For example last year for Fast Company Magazine’s June, 2010 issue the HOLIDATE was chosen and given a ½ page ad – ‘prime real estate’ as they say in the publishing world with TOY STORY 3 at the bottom of the page. Nothing could have been ‘animated’ than how that page looked. Six (6) VIPs at top corporations across the USA were asked their VO: Valued Opinion: “How do you plan on celebrating Adrienne’s NATIONAL SPLURGE DAY ©1994?” A wide-ranging display of answers surfaced.

HOWEVER: This year it’s a bit & bite different and sadly so I must say. It’s almost as if the FUN is taken from the HOLIDATE ®. As many of you know, terrific Storms and Tornados have ravaged the central & eastern portion of the USA. Japan got hit by a duo whammy of Earthquake & Tsunami. Wars are still being waged while crime in many cities is high. A certain percentage of people are forced into a life of Crime because they cannot find work, which is the biggest problem tens of thousands of Americans are facing. If you look around and are realistic about THE MATTERS THAT MATTER MOST, it doesn’t appear to be too much to celebrate about, let alone have enough money to ‘splurge’ with.

Therefore, HOW do you SPLURGE if the ‘Urge to Splurge’ overtakes you & you want to celebrate NATIONAL SPLURGE DAY ©1994 with a Background as this?

Being the Foremost Eventologist, I’ll tell you. There are 3 distinct levels that I’ve created for the below; average and ultra-wealthy person(alities). I would enjoy sharing these with you and your Audience on June 18.

To feature NATIONAL SPLURGE DAY ©1994 in your programming day, merely contact me at:

Requests will be terminated on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 in order to prepare to SPLURGE. You think this is easy? There’s Art in everything and the Art of Splurging is now down to a Science!

Thank you for your consideration.

3 Blockbuster Movie & Book Queries that dissipate Racism through The Eyes of ASK: Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith.

Chicago, IL USA:

ASK’s Books & Movie Scripts Announcement: As of May 26, 2011, one-half (3 of the 6) Books/Movie Scripts encompassed under the Franchise of:

SKIN: SACRED KINSHIP iN NATURE™
HOW 10 BELOVED PLUSH TOYS REDEFINE RACE ©2009

are complete. Their relevant Query/Explanatory Profiles are here on my blog, KOOPERSMITHin’®.

At this point in ‘The Process,’ a major Studio (proficient in Animation) is preferred to undertake the exciting and worthy Project is needed. Reporters are also needed to ‘tell the Story behind The Story’ of how I ‘eliminate Racism’ via 10 top terrific Toys – the hottest Purveyors of the Written & Spoken Word on the Page and on the Screen.

I guarantee that upon reading The Series, any and all bigoted bones will dissipate, exactly what is needed today.

Those 3 Queries follow for your perusal. My Contact Info is at the close of this document. Thank you for spending some of your Day with me…

EDITORIAL NOTE: Some of the words and terms may be capitalized below for effect. That’s because in the master copy, special fonts were applied to the copy.

QUERY #1: SKiN: SACRED KINSHIP iN NATURE™
How 10 Beloved Plush Toys Redefine Race©2009

Have you ever wondered…what the one principal property is that (nearly) every Creature on the Planet Earth possesses? The substance that joins, binds and keeps us ‘all together’ while protecting us from all harmful and deadly outside forces? If so, you need not look any further than the SKiN you are in and every person that you meet and greet. SKiN is Mankind’s Liaison with the Natural World around him. But, what is it that we do not know about ‘The Nature of SKiN’ that the beauty industry routinely drills that I expose in my 6-Part Movie/Book Franchise called:

SKIN: SACRED KINSHIP iN NATURE™
HOW 10 BELOVED PLUSH TOYS REDEFINE RACE ©2009

Plenty, I assure you, yet so many of us avoid and don’t follow our Natural Instincts. That’s SKiNSTINCTS to those of us ‘in the trade’ of WRITE-ing The World.

As an avid TOY collector since birth, the Characters/Roles in SKiN are played by TOYS (beloved by everyone everywhere for that universal appeal and the Hottest Commodity in Movie-Making today). However, my TOYS represent Species who are millions-upon-millions of years old(er than Man). Because of their longevity and relatively ‘unblemished’ life, these TOYS have ‘seen it all.’ Think: ‘Nature’ before the Dinosaur all the way to the Arrival of Man (who is the Harbinger of the Bomb-War-Hate Syndrome). Included are the Frog, Monkey, Ground Hog, Bird Family, Bat, Bear & there’s even an ExtraTerrestrial for good measure! THE CHARACTOYS® expose Four (4) prevailing Themes, those being:

- to eliminate Racism;

- to dispel The Mixed Signals and Ironies of every Day Life;

- to realize fully that your (false and irrationally made) Prejudgments
should be diligently avoided at all Costs & Efforts; and

- to get to The Heart of what really matters is all that matters most.

BUILDING MOMENTUM: I am very happy to report that 1 of the 6 Sequels of SKiN called: iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS ©2009 became The Scriptapalooza International Screenplay Competition 2010 Quarterfinalist Winner beating out 3,164 other Scripts on July 23, 2010. Four (3) of the 6-Part Series is completed to date.

SKiN joins us and should not be seen as a detractor or brick wall from achieving our Dreams. ‘The Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘Forrest Gum of the 21ST Century,’ once SKiN is read, pondered and absorbed, the reader will shed any bigoted bone he has in his body. Possessing SKiNTEGRITY, this Creation is a movie/book empire whose Time is now…or never.

QUERY #2: iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS ©2009

The ANTRODUCTION:
“Just as there is a lot going on ‘around’ you, there is also a lot going on ‘below’ you. Below your feet. Below the carpet. Below the baseboards. Below the sidewalk. Way below the concrete. ‘Down there’ in a place where few Humans have dared to tread or venture. There are Events happening now right ‘below’ that you would never believe are occurring, ever. Not even in a million years...if not longer, much, much longer.”

Past ANTIQUES and far past ANTIQUITIES, my ARTISTRY is based in ANTISTRY®, a term I coined to encompass this Project & Philosophy. The History behind iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009 bloomed from (merely) a 5-Word StatemANT one of my CHARACTOYS® INNOCANTLY asked in my 6-Part Book/Movie Series entitled:

SKiN: SACRED KINSHIP iN NATURE™
HOW 10 BELOVED PLUSH TOYS REDEFINE RACE©2009.

Those transitional Words were:

“You can’t domesticate an ANT.”

Today, that PHENOMENANT is a Word Count exceeding 45,884. This is because:
ANTS are born to bug; born to picnic; born to invade; and born to endure. ANTS were born 130,000,000 years ago to now set a Prime Example in:

A-dri-E-nne S-i-O-ux koo-P-ersmith’s
(embodying: ‘The ‘AESOP’ of The 21ST Century’)
iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS ©2009.

After all, look about you. We are all ‘iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS.’ Watch where you step.

THE STORY’s PLOT: Possessing their own Personalities and Dispositions, 31 ANTS comprise The ANT Family who are SMALL in Nature, but BIG in ‘what matters.’ They have grown accustomed to this Label. Then, all of a sudden GiANT falls into the(ir) Muckety-Muck. At first, you’d have assumed Size would have PREVANTED them from becoming Friends, but they soon find out they have lots in common! Even their Names: ANT & GiANT share a Bond of 60%.

Throughout their ANTIRE Family Tree of nearly 22,000 Species, the average ANT is much SMALLER than even the SMALLEST Peanut and Pebble. Most Humans are unaware of an ANT’s VIBRANT and FLAMBOYANT Colors that include red, reddish-brown, yellow, black, jet black, brownish-black, light brown, green and metallic shades, Colors that all work harmoniously together for the Betterment of The Colony.

Q1: Is it possible that ANT-o-PIA® is a Microcosm of what Humanity entails?
Q2: And, if so: Where is the Proof?

Man, in all his infinite Wisdom, cannot domesticate an ANT, yet The ANT is rated as the most DOMINANT Creature on our ‘GrANiTe PlANeT’ proving We are all iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS.

SEVEN (7) MILESTONES THUS ACHIEVED:

1) After rewriting the Story (a/k/a: ANTHOLOGY) in Spring of 2010, iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS ©2009 then succeeded in beating out 3,164 other Movie Scripts in Scriptapalooza’s International Screenplay Competition on July 23, 2010 (based in Hollywood), thus giving ‘The Work’ a Double Platform for both Book and Film Enthuasiasts/ANThuasiasts.

2) Because I am known as ‘America’s Premier Eventologist,’ I created the HOLIDATE®: AUGUST IS ANT APPRECIATION MONTH©2010 that premiers in 2011 to universally commemorate, spotlight and celebrate the INFLUANTIAL ANTICS possessed by this incredible Creature the last/past 130,000,000 years, who assumed Ecological DOMINANTS 60,000,000 years ago.

3) The Premier of WORLD RESTAURANT DAY ©2010 is slated for Sunday, August 21, 2011.

4) The ANTABULARY® (an ANT vocABULARY) now contains over 500 ANTICULATED Words & 32 ANTHICIZED Icons are CARICANTURED that allow the Reader to fully enter (or ANTER) ‘The Realm of ANTHOOD’ and become totally insatiated (that’s insANTiated in Pure ANTESE®).

5) ANTOPOLY®: The Game Board (an educational ploy) is on the Drawing Board.

6) A local Chicago-based UPS Office placed an order for ‘BABY ANT’ VALANTINE Cards, circa February, 2011.

7) As of May, 2011, iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009 comprises 2 Books; 1 one-hour long TV Script; 1 two-hour long Movie; and 1 three-hour long Musical. CurrANTly, an Animated Series (in the ANTIMATION® Genre) seems to be most suitable.

After all:

ANTS: ANTS NEED THEIR SAY®

and I’ve given them this long, long overdue Forum. iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009, as a Modern Day Fablette, crosses over to become a Marketing Sensation & a Branding Dream while magically joining us all together no matter what our Size and Color.
To answer the 2 Questions posed before: ANT-o-PIA® is the Microcosm of what Humanity entails.

Because Literature penetrates all SKiNS on all Species, iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009 was penned for both Children & Adults in mind to eliminate Racism; to dissolve the Mixed Signals & Ironies We are perpetually bombarded with & to get to ‘The Heart’ of what truly matters. After absorbing iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009, any and all Bigoted Bones will disappear.

As for those ANTi-Bug Balms: Well, REPELLANTS against Nature will never be used again while iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS.

QUERY #3: PLANTASIA®

Blind-sighted with eyes wide open, the most underrated and least appreciated Species on the Earth forms the PLANT Kingdom that blooms about you; that you see every day; that you eat and drink; that you wear; that you share; that you plant ‘n grow; that you stringently apply; that you mow down and pluck-up; that you sniff, smell & sneeze (at); that you wrap yourself up in; and that you (may) smoke & toke. PLANTS (in all their glorious wonder) are the Reason we (every single one of us) are here today. Yes, you, too, and all your family, friends, pets, neighbors, Rotary group and even your Facebook Pals have had ‘close encounters’ of the PLANT-icular kind, far too many to even tabulate.

Without PLANTS, all Creatures would cease to be. This startling Statement is thoughtfully explored in my evergreen 138 page Manuscript/Movie Script as THE CHARACTOYS® and THE ANT FAMILY of PROVANTS® all featured in the 6-Part Book/Movie Serial called:

SKiN: SACRED KINSHIP iN NATURE™
HOW 10 BELOVED PLUSH TOYS REDEFINE RACE©2009

enter The PLANT-ORIUM® (of The Vault in SKiN-OPOLIS®) to better understand why we Humans, Animals & Insects are collectively dependent on them for the lives we lead. While indulging in the various ‘Earthly Delights’ about us, we should never lose sight of ‘The Snippets of Wonderment’ that occur naturally around us constantly.

Explore PLANTASIA® to comprehend the omnipotent Powers PLANTS possess…via the Four (4) reoccurring Themes depicted throughout SKiN, namely to:

- eliminate Racism;

- dispel The Mixed Signals and Ironies of every Day Life; and

- to realize fully that your (false and irrationally made) Prejudgments
should be diligently avoided at all Costs & Efforts; and

- get to The Heart of what really matters is all that matters most.

For the last 430,000,000 years aided by the Sun (our first light bulb), as Lifesavers, PLANTS still say so much today even without words, nods, props or gestures. PLANTS cannot bark like a dog; meow like a cat; sing like a bird; squeal like a pig; hiss like a snake; screech like an owl; echolate like a bat; chatter like a monkey; howl like a wolf; squawk like a parrot; moo like a cow; roar like a lion; or snore like a tired old man, yet their statement is the most electrifying.

PLANTS take us back to ‘The Roots’ of Life, bringing ‘Full Circle’ the fact that ‘Nature is a one-stop service center for PLANTS, Animals, Insects and Humans by serving as a huge gymnasium to relieve stress levels in healthy ways that only the Great Outdoors can procure and create.

Ponder-hard about the role PLANTS play in your day, diet, dreams and dramas. How could PLANTS, (our Silent Partners in Life) ever be forgotten? Who was that first PLANT that made ‘The Transition’ from Sea to Land so long ago? Yet, for all the PLANTS that are consumed, why aren’t we Humans & Animals greener in color? What would become the Fate of PLANTS after Doors, Fences and Moats were invented that turned them from outside to inside PLANTS? Who is most deserving of the Title of ‘Multi-Tasker?’

THE CHARACTOYS® & THE ANT FAMILY of PROVANTS® fully realize ‘The Stark Reality’ of how Mixed Signals have defaced the Planet with Man’s arrival, starting with PLANTS although their Fine Trickery of being either ‘good/pretty’ or ‘bad/poisonous’ PLANTS has confused many Species. Yet, the Rules of Mother Nature prevail. When Nature became profitable, Man had ‘arrived’ causing the wrath of problems all Species face today. Those need fixing…and fast!

PLANTS: They do all this work, non-stop -- century-in and millennium-out -- without so much as a paycheck or a mere thank you. As Father Time concluded: “This is the Mysterium Tremendum’ of all Time.”

MARKET AWAY: Since 2005, I snapped photographs of THE CHARACTOYS® in Nature amongst the Shrubs, Trees, Flowers & Grasses (that are so critical to our Survival) found in Chicago. These have been affixed to the 100 most poignant Conversations & Quotes stated in PLANTASIA® (addressing the 3 prevailing themes) that will be sold to Nature, Floral & Garden Magazines across the World to instill and generate more interest in this multi-level Franchise. On the drawing board, this Series will comprise as: 24” X 36” posters; greeting cards and a coffee table picture book, for starters.

PLANTASIA ®: An absorbing Way to view Life – your Llife – with The SKiN you are in.”

Evacuating Japan. The Latest Update from RON RON: May 24, 2011

RON RON, CNN's Video Reporter reveals the following NEWS about the March 11, 2011 Tsunami, Earthquake and Nuclear Disaster striking Japan. As I have been doing, I post this on my BLOG for those so concerned. If you wish to contact RON RON (himself), he is found on FB, under 'RON RON'. Please share with others:

Translated piece for http://savechild.net/?p=287

"Please share this with mothers thinking about evacuating. The Italian Tourism Office offers return tickets and up to three months of stay in hotels including meals for mothers with children from the radiated areas. Please have the courage to leave your home country behind temporarily, because children suffer from the effects from radiation more than adults. Don't hesitate."

(Then follows an explanation about the funding and the project Italian Friends for Japan)

Further:
"Mothers with small infants will be given priority, but we will do our best to arrange it so you can be accompanied by your parents or grandparents if that is your wish. The flight and hotel will be provided. While we are sorry not being able to guarantee you that you can be located to the town of you preference, please let us know should you want to be located to a certain town along with your desired duration of stay and we will try to answer to your requests. We hope that a stay in Italy will at least help to recover from some of the stress you have experienced.

The Essence of SKiN: When TOYS tell it like it REEL-ly is.

Have you ever wondered…

SKiN joins us and should not be seen as a detractor or brick wall from achieving our Dreams. ‘The Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘Forrest Gum of the 21ST Century,’ once SKiN is read, pondered and absorbed, the reader will shed any bigoted bone he has in his body. Possessing SKiNTEGRITY, this Creation is a movie/book empire whose Time is now…or never.

Banter about Endangered Species Day: 2011. America's Premier Eventologist speaks out.

Chicago, IL USA:

The following conversation was CoF: Caught on Facebook between my friend, CASEY KERCHNER (who I have known since the 1960s) and myself discussing the merits of this event...one that may have been invented too late in the 'food chain.' It follows:


Casey Kerchner: "Friday, May 20th, is Endangered Species Day! As designated by the U.S. Senate, every year on the 3rd Friday in May is Endangered Species Day. This day helps people of all ages to learn about our country’s threatened wildlife and plants.Surely you know someone who is on the endangered Species List and is on the Verge of Becoming Extinct."

ASK’s COMMENT:
Try Mankind for starters... U don't have to go to a nature sanctuary or forest to see how Species are withering away. However, folks, it's Friday - the start of the weekend, so we might as well try to stay away from the Morbid Side of Life for at least 48 more hours (at least). I attended GREENFEST last weekend and 1 of the seminar speakers stated that 80,000 species disappear every yr. I felt that was way too high a stat...but haven't checked it yet. However, UR right Casey -- we should all learn more about Extinction/Endangered & Threatened Species. That's why I wrote: SKiN: Sacred Kinship in Nature - How 10 Beloved Plush Toys Redefine Race (C)2009 as it features 5 of the 10 (characters) who are on the Endangered Species list. It's extremely sad. I feel the damage has already been done. After all when we were in school together we had 4 specific seasons and now it's down to 2. Those being COLD & HEAT with the worst tornados & hurricanes striking that completely knock out entire communities. That's Extinction on a diff. level. Then, IF UR coasting along on your bike and some distracted driver zooms into your zone, well there's ExTinctioN of the cruellest kind. For city dwellers as myself: Just getting thru a day is hard enuf! And on that note - we all should head OUT right now and help a Platypus in need.

USPS Mail Fraud strikes home for a feisty Chicago Writer. Do we have a Story here, America!

TITLE:
ASK/Chicago: USPS Mail Fraud strikes home for a feisty Chicago Writer. Do we have a Story here, America!


eMedia Release
Monday, May 16, 2011 - 4:08 PM CST

Koopersmith’s Global Communications
“People read what ASK writes about…”
Chicago – Illinois USA

Hello Fellow Americans:

I’m a 58 year old woman and a gifted writer who lives in Chicago, Illinois minding her own business when out of the blue something happened that made me turn to THE MEDIA to let you know that we’re no longer in Kansas, Toto.

My story is strange yet it’s also your story, one that we can all relate to. And it goes like this:

BACKGROUND: For me, Friday, May 13TH is a day wrought with great amounts of superstition and skepticism. Being known far and wide as

‘America’s Premier Eventologist’

(a title I received from Gene Koprowski of Insight Magazine from Washington, DC in August of 1997)

and

‘The Premier Eventologist in the History of the World’
(a title I received from Eric Zorn of the Chicago Tribune in January 2001),

I created International Skeptics’ Days back in 1996. 1,900 such Holidates are on my Roster. A Holidate is defined as goodwill, humanitarian, altruistic, educational, recreational, spiritual/spirited, fun-time and fun-type Event.

As customary, I walked to the lobby of my apartment building to retrieve my mail on Friday, May 13TH. There, I spotted a flat parcel in an official United States Postal Service 9-3/4 X 12.5 inch Express Mail envelope squeezed into my narrow mailbox with my name on it. I was especially perplexed and skeptical by its look.

Upon opening the parcel, I found not only 1 but 2 Personal Money Orders (PMOs) (issued from the USPS itself) made payable to me from a woman (unbeknownst to me – not even one of my Facebook buddies) living in Texas.

My name appeared on the left; hers on the right. She is Samantha Graham. I do not know any Samantha Graham, but evidently ‘Sam’ is a generous woman. These 2 PMOs were each in the amount of $995.50 each. Money, I could definitely use. These PMOs were drawn on the USPS and these PMOs looked official and real.

However, being as skeptical as I naturally am, combined with the fact I did not know the sender; nor was I expecting to receive any money, red flags suddenly flared, emerging fast and furiously.

My Sherlock Holmes & John Walsh instincts surfaced. I began trying to piece this all together. Having a history (since 1990) of doing slews of radio interviews in Texas for having created the Literary Art form known as:

EVENTOLOGY®
The Art of Event-Making
Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith’s Campaigns For Humanity ©1990

that I initially created on Wednesday, July 25, 1990 at 9:45 PM, at first, I assumed these generous PMOs were sent from a rich Texan who liked what I was doing for Humanity (to better the world) and was following my Creative Career from afar.

Now, she wanted to reward me for my valiant efforts as Eventology® is now well into its 2ND Decade. But how did she get my home address including block, city, state and zip? This puzzled me. This troubled me, too.

Then, I figured it may be one of my deceased relatives in Texas who left money to me from their estate, but those relatives are already long dead and gone and I was not close to any of them. No such luck there. That assumption was checked off ‘The List,’ too.

As I carefully examined the PMOs and their accompanying envelope, I wondered why an explanatory note was not included stating why I was receiving this lump sum. At that point, I became stunned, astonished and astounded.

However, the girly-girl in me also kicked in (as well as the Struggling Artist - now an active 58 year old who should be welcoming thoughts of Retirement, not planning her 400TH reinvention). I was planning on what I could buy with that amount of nearly $2000!

Being as thoughtfully frugal and budget-minded as I proudly am, I knew this amount would pull me through 2 months (of the long, hot steamy summer ahead. (Designer) Air Conditioning is expensive, you know. Then, I instantly thought of the old Proverb:

“Be careful what you wish for.”

From what I recall, I had not recently wished on a shooting star as it’s been cloudy here the last few days in Chicago and few fly past my neighborhood. My Mode is: If I were to play the lottery, I would have played Powerball or the Mega Game because at times, it’s fun to dream big and ‘living large.’ ‘High Maintenance’ is what that is called instead of scrimping and saving like so many others are now forced to do.

And, if I lucked out playing The Lottery, that $2000 could become $2,000,000 or more by the end of the day. I searched the apartment for my pocket calculator.

After all, we all lead lives where what’s available and within our means determines the course of our days. Then, the practical sociologist (1 of my 2 majors at college) kicked in and I surmised:

Still in all, in today’s lackluster economy, I fully know that scams are running wild.

At that very point in my deductions, I decided this dilemma had to be solved once and for all, so that what happened to me would not happen to you and yours. This inconvenience (that is happening to me) must be averted for others who find themselves in my very shoes. BTW, I did my research while day-dreaming and found that $2000 will (almost) buy 2 pairs of Manolo Blahnik Stilettos.

Being a whirlwind of novel ideas for not only myself but others (and former clients) in the 1990s, I was also labeled as:

‘One of Chicago’s Leading Think Tank Leaders’

by Ketchum/Chicago (an international, 80 year old Public Relations agency that receives the most awards). They know how The Creative Process unfolds. Creativity can be used for good or evil. That’s another interesting factor in this story.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE: Because my days are very carefully and meticulously chiseled out, I really had no time to worry about this matter that was invading my Space and altering Activities that need my undivided attention with self-imposed deadlines looming. At the top of my Creative List is the Wrriting and Development of my award-winning Movie Script called:

SKiN: Sacred Kinship in Nature™
How 10 Beloved Plush Toys Redefine Race ©2009
Featuring iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS ©2009
that beat out 3,164 other Scripts in July of 2010 having been entered in an International Screenplay competition based in Hollywood that was read by Industry Professionals.

SKiN’s four ® relevant themes are to:

eliminate Racism;

dispel The Mixed Signals and Ironies of every Day Life;

realize fully that your (false and irrationally made) Prejudgments should be diligently avoided at all Costs & Efforts; and

get to The Heart of what really matters is all that matters most.

These are all Topics that need my pure Concentration 24/7. Being disturbed by this intrusion breaks my Creative Flow. These Themes, as you can instantly tell, are all topics that need to be addressed and worked in our critically disturbed world. There was no room for me to get knocked off-course.

However, I do keep up with THE NEWS both online and off. I know that scams (dealing with FREE, unearned money) are running rampant. This looming issue needed THE ADRIENNE TOUCH and it had to be exposed to the light of day, NOW, no matter what personal and pressing issues confronted me.

For decades (stemming from how I was raised – being the First Daughter of the First Jewish Mayor in a predominantly German, Nazi Town in downstate Illinois), I always considered myself to be ‘EVERY WOMAN’ – one who could relate to the rich, the poor and those in the middle. Every body liked me and I liked every body. Therefore, if this happened to me, it could happen to others. The warning had to be sounded, loud and clear as this ‘conveyance’ is considered to be a leading national problem.

Chiefly, it is because the United States Postal Service is being used unethically to move a request that uses monetary resources to trick unsuspecting victims by way of look-alike Personal Money Orders that are counterfeit.

WHAT’s A GAL TO DO: DECISIONS/DECISIONS:

My schedule for Friday, May 13 was to begin with a stop-in at City Hall to leave off a lovely farewell note to Mayor Richard M. Daley (who was leaving office after 22 years of municipal service). My father had served for nearly 16 years. At my request (17+ years ago), Mayor Daley proclaimed October 25 (in 1993) as CARTOONISTS AGAINST CRIME Day – saluting a Cartoon & Comic Art Movement I founded in December of 1991 after I was violently assaulted, robbed and left for dead in the lobby of my apartment building, the same place I live today. My! That lobby certainly has seen its share and loads of action. If it could only talk, the Stories is could tell.

However, on my way to City Hall, I took a detour. I stopped in to my bank and had a one-on-one talk with Michael Hoesle, Sr. Personal Banker, my friendly and helpful Harris banker. He examined the two PMOs and compared them, telling me they were indeed counterfeit and fraudulent. Then I asked him how ‘The Scenario’ would play out had I attempted to cash them in at the Bank through a teller. Would the teller be able to spot counterfeit PMOs that looked as real as the nose on my face? If this transaction was to occur, Samantha Graham (the Texas woman whose name appeared on the 2 PMOs – if that really was her name) at the address of:

4910 Airport Parkway in Addison, Texas 75001

(that is defined as a blue mailbox and post office location – via a google map I checked) would have total access to my social security # along with my private and confidential info that could (most likely) be used to wipe me out.

These are Stories regularly broadcast on TV & Radio and now over the Internet but one never thinks it will happen to them. Samantha Graham (which may be her alias) would have access to my account and my personal info. Mr. Hoesle highly suggested that without delay, I take the 2 PMOs to the post office located 1 block north to tip them off; followed by a trip to the Illinois Attorney General’s Office, headed by Lisa Madigan – all conveniently found in the State of Illinois Building (100 West Randolph on the 12TH Floor).

I was on a mission. I was bound and determined. I had a new goal and mission – aside from eliminating Racism that I have always felt is at the core of man’s problems. Scam Busters was formed. This Fraudulent Act is color-blind. The only color these criminals are particularly interested in is every thing that is Green – the Color of Money. This over-took my daily Scriptwriting and promotional efforts, enhancing them for sure.

About 8 minutes later on Friday, May 13, I arrived at a Branch of the Post Office and spoke to the Postal Clerk at one of the open windows. After telling her a brief version of my Story involving the PMOs that arrived in an official USPS Express Envelope, I showed her 1 of the PMOs and the envelope. A huge ‘OH MY GOSH – NOT AGAIN!’ erupted from her. She took the PMO and said she would return shortly with her supervisor, Dorthea.

I didn’t need to wait long. I then explained to her (in more detail) what I’ve been telling you - all stated above. Dorthea confirmed this set of PMOs was counterfeit, even down to the hologram, including the reverse side of the PMO’s where the name is to be written in and bank account number are found.

Needless to say, THEY LOOKED SO REAL. Would anyone else fall this? I wanted to find out.

In confidence, I told Dorthea my next step was to log a complaint with Lisa Madigan’s Office on the 12TH floor of the State of Illinois Building (where her post office was also located). I told her I would keep her posted of my finds.

Then, THE WRITER in me kicked in. Known for my beautiful and moving letters, stories and scripts and realizing there is power in the written word that can be passed along in so many different formats today, I immediately wasted no time and found Lisa Madigan’s website at:

http://www.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov/

and composed an in-depth, informative explanation about this situation.

After all, if this happened to me, it could, probably would and is undoubtedly occurring to many others across the USA. I like to think I am ‘special’ but I’m not that special when it comes to this kind of fraudulent and criminal mind. Will PMOs like these be sent to those whose homes were damaged during our last horrific bout of floods and tornados – when people are at their lowest points and most gullible?

Having founded CARTOONISTS AGAINST CRIME ©1991 (whose Motto is: CAC: We TOON-out Crime) on December 23, 1991 after being brutally attacked, robbed and left-for-dead in the lobby of my apartment building (where I still live today), there are just some things (some may call them ‘distractions’) that get in the way of life’s daily chores, routines and TO DO list. This was one of those things. After all,

‘A Woman’s gotta do, what a Woman’s gotta do.”

Contacting Ms. Madigan’s office (that deals with acts of fraud on a regular basis) is what a concerned and motivated citizen would do, immediately.

WWYD: What Would You Do?

And that is why you (in the capacity of being a Media Person) are receiving this today to help me take this Story to the NEXT LEVEL for it to gain the national & international exposure it needs.

Because it involved the Post Office and was over state lines, it also rated as a national concern.

I am personally looking forward to the FEEDBACK & REACTION others will convey. Therefore, keeping this in mind, I began letting others know what had happened. On Sunday morning, I took the PMOs and envelope to my best friend’s home so she could see for herself – that the Royalty Checks were finally coming in. Yes, this is an insider’s joke between us. Changing face, after I seriously explained to her what occurred; the look on her pretty face became one of complete outrage and horror. Being protective of her family and friends, she took the PMOs to show her husband who was having his breakfast in the dining room. She handed him the PMOs and asked:

“Would you cash these for Adrienne?”

He looked at them and commented he would but he presently did not have the funds to cover the amounts (nearly $1000 a piece) and that I would have to wait for a week. Flabbergasted, my friend grabbed the checks and told him they were counterfeit and that he had been fooled.

Would he really have tried cashing them?
What if he had?

Then, he would have been sucked into Samantha Graham’s con game. That’s a scary thought as my friend explicitly told her husband those 2 PMOs were not real, but counterfeits. She continued by stating (drilling in her point) in her protective way: “If your brother or friends approach you with PMOs similar to these, do NOT cash them, as our account would be cleaned out.”

He was totally caught off guard – exactly what Samantha Graham had planned for me and whomever else she was trying to scam using the USPS and preying on people like me and my neighbors.

This E-media Release was composed so that what happened to me will not happen to you. I don’t think you need the headache or aggravation. Do you? No matter how tempting PMOs as these are, someone (or some team) is committing National Mail Fraud using the USPS and by issuing their own counterfeit Personal Money Orders as their vehicle to nab unsuspecting and honest Americans as myself. Many American Lives are already in shambles for a variety of reasons. It need not get any worse for them.

AND YET, I DREAM ON. Oh, if only. Being a Writer – Eventologist - Screenwriter needing her BIG BREAK, I think of what could have been. That $2000 would have gotten me to Hollywood. I’d be having breakfast at Nate & Al’s Deli in Beverly Hills. I hear that’s where Steven Spielberg eats his breakfast. I d’ be seated in the booth next to his with my Press Kit and a few of my TOYS (as I write Scripts for TOYS - animated TOYS) are the most marketable and popular Commodity today on the Open Marketplace, as you know). TOYS are bigger than life Today on the golden screen – TV screen and PCs screens (all of them actually). After all, TOYS can’t write a fraudulent PMO…

As the Scenario would unfold, Mr. Spielberg & I would be chatting. He’d like the thoughtful Angle I was taking using TOYS to eliminate Racism. He’d give me a chance. Then, the Dream Works would REEL-ly begin. In total, 8 manuscripts and 8 spec movie scripts on the drawing board. One has already beat-out 3164 others. Called iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS ©2009, it possesses the FUN & FOLLY to become an international Hit and Sensation. That unexpected windfall of $2000 would and could have launched my career, once and for all – to lessen the hate and prejudice that is overtaking us. Now, the Story focuses on the unraveling fraudulent acts as this.

CLOSING THOUGHTS: Wouldn’t this Situation make for a great Counterfeiting Story? With all the PC programs available, it cannot be difficult to ‘make a Fake.’ It’s not hard finding addresses of people. That’s what the yellow pages - phone books are for. Once the PMOs were printed, this act probably cost Samantha a nickel – as she didn’t even spend money on postage sending it to me – the stamp registered as $0.00. If I had only swiped the envelope for fingerprints. That’s what John Walsh would have done.

What else are people like these up to? The Bottom Line remains: Even minding your own business, a person is not safe. Now, that you have extensive knowledge of this criminal and fraudulent ploy, my Mission is accomplished. I have the 2 PMOs and envelope. If you’d like to interview me for a human interest story, email me at:

to set a date and time in which we can discuss this matter. After all, Toto, we are not in Kansas…

The American Hero Music Festival - http://joe.freethrowsforheroes.org/

POSTED FOR Joe Cantafio on Wednesday, May 11, 2011 http://joe.freethrowsforheroes.org/

DATELINE: May 11, 2011

MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR: JUNE 8
Details below

I need your help on a project. As you may know, my cousin Lance Corporal Ryan Joseph Cantafio USMC 2/24 was killed in action in Iraq on Thanksgiving Day (Nov 25th) 2004. I promised his dad nobody would ever forget Ryan. In 2008, with the help of the Exchange Club of Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, we created "The American Hero Music Festival;" scheduled around September 11th annually, to keep Ryan and all "real heroes" memories alive. This year will be the 3rd annual event, however, the economy is putting some pressure on the good people of Beaver Dam, WI, Ryan's hometown, where the event is held, and funding for this event is becoming hard to come by.

So, I am stepping from “center stage” to “center court,” and with the help of Mitch Salzstein and his great organization; "The Charity Stripe." I will be shooting free throws to raise money for this year's event. Funds raised will go to producing the event and to the high school-college scholarship programs in the name of the three fallen troops who graduated from Beaver Dam High School. If a $50,000.00 goal is met, every dollar after that will go to the Vietnam Veterans “Welcome Home 2011 – Chicago” – June 17 – 19 - www.ServiceandHonor.org



Believe it or not, I am a 90% free throw shooter, and I will be shooting 100-free throws on June 8, 2011 at an event called "Free Throws For Heroes." This charitable event/initiative, created by The Charity Stripe, will directly support The American Hero Music Festival, and I will be the only one shooting free throws. People can pledge 50-cents, $1.00, $2.00, $5.00, $10.00, $20.00, $25.00, $50.00, $100.00 per free throw, or make a straight donation. All donations are tax exempt. This event is sponsored by The Barrington Park District.



Please click on this link http://joe.freethrowsforheroes.org/ and make a pledge. ALSO please help by contacting at least ten of your military-supporting friends and ask them to pledge as well.



I’m asking my friends here on Facebook because I know you could help with this project and help make it a huge success. Your influence with your vast network of Troop Supporters could really make a difference.



If you live in the Chicago-area, you are invited to watch me shoot the free throws ~ 11:30 AM on Wednesday, June 8, 2011 at Langendorf Park, Barrington Park District Fitness Center, basketball court; 235 Lions Dr, Barrington, IL (@ Rt 59 {Hough Street} and Rt 14 {Northwest Highway})



I hope you can help.



Thanks so much ~

The Best ANT Spec Movie Script on The Planet. Or so Mom & I think. The May 6, 2011 Edition.

Excerpt #3 about 'ANTS' follows:

To Scores of People throughout Time, ANTS were born to get under your SKiN and give you ‘The Creeps.’ With a wrongfully fixed Mindset as this securely in place, what possible Lessons and Values could Humans (stoutly judging themselves to be a far Superior Race) then learn from such a SMALL Species? As my Writing expanded, other Writers and The Media began asking:

What compelled me to choose ANTS to battle against such ingrained, Social Human Dilemmas & Injustices?

In response, I stated: “The ANTS’ Cuteness, Cooperation and Chronology served as my Top 3 Criteria in selecting a Creature that could properly tell this STORY, a Tale based and founded in Truth.”


After all, ANTS have received a ‘Bad Rap’ from Humans.

At this point in the copy, I relay my LOG LINE which is open to Movie Industry professionals only.

Continuing with the General Info:

Born 130,000,000 years ago, ANTS now set a Prime Example in:

ADRiENNE SiOUX KOOPERSMiTH’s
iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009-2010,

a willful STORY explaining how Size, Color & Wits matter in Nature, for the Survival of The Species and those (about them) that they assist and affect. At times, this Role can give-off the Wrong Signals causing Mixed Messages to occur and confuse. Getting to know The Real ANTS of Muckety-Muck PROVANTS allows The Observer (Reader, Viewer and/or Audience Member) to gain a privileged Insider’s VANTAGE Point of what happens in ANTDOM, seldom revealed until now.

The Best ANT Spec Movie Script on The Planet. Or so Mom & I think. The May 5, 2011 Edition.

The following is 2 page (of 23) derived from a Writing (Composition, eMedia Release) I began on February 27, 2011 describing The Background of THE ANT, a creature that has been with us...or we with them (is more like it) for the last 130,000,000 years (ago).

What I found particularly interesting today is a fact derived from:

The World Almanac & Book of Facts for 2011
by World Almanac Books in New York City whose sernior editor is Sarah Janssen.

On page 646, the following sentence appeared that really would make us stop and think about RACISM and how we treat each other. It stated: Genetic research suggests that mutations related to traits currently found in some human populations such as Europeans unusually light skin pigmentation and ability to process lactose, arose after circa 12 kya.

This certainly puts a spin on previous info that had been collected and assumed and relays stronger than ever before the message that is being conveyed in my Book/Scripts called: iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS (C)2009.

ANTS (Arthropoda Insecta Hymenoptera Apocrita Vespoidea Formicidae in old Latin1) are agile. Their Flexibility and Demeanor have allowed them The Privilege to be INHABITANTS of our Planet Earth for one of the lengthiest Periods of Time, equating to:

MONTHS:
1,560,000,000 Months calculated in Human Time

DAYS:
47,450,000,000 Days calculated in Human Time (a 365-Day Year)
47,482,500,000 Days calculated in Human Time (a 366-Day/Leap Year)

HOURS:
1,138,800,000,000 Hours calculated in Human Time (a 365-Day Year)
1,139,580,000,000 Hours calculated in Human Time (a 366-Day/Leap Year)

SECONDS:
68,328,000,000,000 Seconds calculated in Human Time (a 365-Day Year)
68,374,800,000,000 Seconds calculated in Human Time (a 366-Day/Leap Year)

THE POWER & DEFINITION OF IMPACT:
IMPERIAL MEASUREMENTS PERFORMING ANTS CREATE TODAY

Who else can play Hide & Go Seek as easily as ANTS do? When Size doesn’t matter, We suddenly see that it does. Even the minutest of Creatures can have the BIGGEST Minutes and MOMANTS on Earth. When Size does matter, We suddenly see that Bulk or Matter exerts a Force that affects The Course of each Kingdom it connects (with). Grounded in Teamwork, THE ANT FAMILY of Muckety Muck ProvANTS (that’s ‘Province’ to English-speaking Populations) know the great Tasks that lay ahead of them. That is exactly what I, ADRiENNE SiOUX KOOPERSMiTH POIGNANTly & ELEQUANTly depict in iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS©2009-2010, a multi-level Fable – STORY – Script whose Four Premises symbolize racy Topics that forge Front Page News & Headlines.

The Best ANT Spec Movie Script on The Planet. Or so Mom & I think...

The following is 1 page (of 23) derived from a Writing (Composition, eMedia Release) I began on February 27, 2011 describing The Background of THE ANT that is used as the main characters:

protagonists and ANT-agonists

(we could say) in my on-going Series (book & movies both) called:

SKiN: Sacred Kinship in Nature
How 10 Beloved Plush Toys Redefine Race ©2009.

Although THE ANTS do not comprise the immediate Top 10 Toys (of which half of them or 5 of them are on the Endangered Species' List), they are of extreme Interest because of their Age, RelevANTS & SignificANTS to what they have done for all other life forms.

Read on and get a load out of and chuckle from:

“Like ANTS. They like you.”

Quote of ASK: ADRIENNE SIOUX KOOPERSMITH
Tuesday, March 8, 2011 – 7:59 AM

The most misunderstood Creature on The Planet (that’s PLANET, of course) is THE ANT. For those of you who guessed that correct ANTSWER (that’s ‘Answer’ in Humanese), by all means give yourself a Pat (i.e.: pANT) on The Back. Soon, you are to learn a New Perspective about Life, all taken from The APoV: ANTS’ Point of View, because the most written about and observed Creature is THE ANT.

Chronologically, ANTS go back 130,000,000 years, outliving The Dinosaur by 65,000,000 years, even though ANTS are a Smidgen of the Mighty Lizards’ GIGANTIC Size. Man’s History is surely miniscule compared to The ANT’s Past. That Statement must be further clarified as ANT Life registers as a ‘Prehistory’ since Sundials, Clocks, Watches and Timepieces were not invented, yet every Act(ion) was performed in a CONSCIANTIOUS State and timely Manner. How could that Function possibly be? There’s no INFERANTS or inference to BEES in this Case. ANTS are The Topic here and the RELEVANT Answers to any and every Question are easily found Online, in your Backyard and at your Family Picnics. ANTS live ‘local’ (‘locally’ in proper English), but work global(ly). Teamwork is hot-wired into their Brain that has kept THE ANTS center-stage in Nature, acting as Nature’s Farmer in The Realm We call Life. Like Humans, they come in a Variety of lively and lovely Colors, Hues, Shades and SKiN Tones.

To be continued for the next 22 days.

Good Grief: Not ANoTher ANT Take Over!

Chicago, IL USA:

One of the most written about and observed Creature is THE ANT.

And now with it being Day #3 of THE MERRY MARKETING MONTH OF MAY WITH SKiN & ANTS, the focus is now on completing the 2nd & 3rd portion of ANTS that is a scene/chapter in SKiN that was initially written in May-June of 2009. Writers often enjoy revisiting their pieces to see if any thing can be added, deleted or synthesized. That may be the biggest growth spurt for any artist/writer to take on.

ASK launches: THE MERRY MARKETING MONTH OF MAY WITH SKiN & ANTS!

Chicago, IL USA

Beginning today on Sunday, May 1, 2011 - through the 31st, I will be commenting on my books and movie scripts that deal with:

SKiN: Sacred Kinship in Nature (TM)
How 10 Beloved Plush Toys Redefine Race (C)2009
&
spawning its award-winning Quarterfinalist Winner: iN THE COMPANY OF ANTS (C)2010

that are the creative projects I have been working on since January 29, 2009.

As 'America's Premier Eventologist' - a title I recevied by Insight Magazine in August of 1997 by writer, GENE KOPROWSKI, THE MERRY MARKETING MONTH OF MAY (C)1994 was created 13 years ago in order to focus on branding my writings and creative campaigns. Little did I know it would turn into a Anti-Prejudicial Global Campaign that aims to elimiate racism; dissolve the mixed signals we receive and get to the herat of what really matters. All with diff. combos of the English Alphabet - all 26 letters and a few random thoughts.

Stay tuned as the Media Blitz continues.
