EU's Civil Protection Mechanism available for Christchurch

The European Union is following with great concern the tragedy of Canterbury's latest great earthquake.

The New Zealand authorities have been informed that the European Union civil protection mechanism is available in case of need, as it was when the first earthquake struck the region in September 2010.

Our thoughts are with the people of Canterbury once again in their hour of need.

Gordon Campbell: On Children’s Book Classics - The Moomins

About 15 years ago on Werewolf, I started writing a series of articles about classic children’s books. Over the next few months, these articles will be re-published here, every Friday. The series began with my essay on the Moomins universe created by the Finnish writer Tove Jansson. The recent rash of greetings cards, cups and other Moomin-related marketing efforts have only made the original books seem even more precious.
