United Nations Fund
United Way Worldwide
Two organizations whose contribution of expertise, human and financial resources and volunteer efforts provide humanitarian solutions to real world problems the entire world over. These charities operate worldwide. The United Nations Fund supports the various programs part of the United Nations' global mandate, as much a foundation as it is a roof around the world.


World Veterans Federation (Under Reconstruction) [Wikipedia]
The World Veterans Federation is a humanitarian organisation, a charity and a peace activist movement. The WVF maintains its consultative status with the United Nations since 1951 and was conferred the title of “Peace Messenger” in 1987.


I'd like to point out that it was the incredible Gary Sinese Foundation that brought the issue of Veteran's rights to my attention. I've always had little respect for those who'd forget the great contribution made by those who've risked life and limb to defend those values that so many of us espouse. Perhaps the true measure of one's principles are by that for which they'd risk their life.

"None can speak more eloquently for peace than those who have fought in war."

Ralph Bunche, Nobel Peace Prize 1950


The Reeve Foundation provides programs for research, uniting Scientists and Specialists from many different fields to find treatments for spinal cord injury translating them into therapies and support programs.

The Edgar Allan Poe Museum
Because Barris told me to put it here. If I didn't, he said he'd walk. Geez. Stardom really gets to some people's heads. Maybe I could kill him and bury his heart beneath the floor boards! Or I could encase him in behind a brick and mortar wall, for shaming my family name of Amantillado! 

In all truth, there's a good chance that thanks to the works of Edgar Allan Poe, Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain), William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Jonathan Swift, Mary Shelley, Robert Louis Stevenson, Herbert George Wells, Jules Verne, Dr. Seuss, Stephen King, Clive Barker and Pierre Burton (for The Secret World Of Og and his ground breaking interview of Bruce Lee) that all of us are literate. Actually that goes back much farther to the Phoenecians and their first 22 character system of symbols. Literacy is important. Really it is. Literally. It allows us to approach our employer at the end of the week (with a big club) and ask: where my money?! Math important too. It help us count our thirteen fingers and toes.

The Butterfly Dragon - Heroes of our Own: Reimagined

by Brian Joseph Johns

Episode 9: The Fallen and the Risen

Manufactory

6 Years Ago
Toronto, Ontario
Canada


Alicia slipped in the door of her studio apartment, then pocketing her keys and quickly kicking off her shoes. After hanging up her blazer in the closet she made her way to the kitchen and placed the fixings for her salad in the fridge, by which time Mr. Frisker had jumped up onto the island countertop and Barker was running in circles around it once again, in some kind of manic display of happiness.


"My little twins are are hungry again?" Mr. Frisker rubbed the side of his face against her hand, while Barker stopped and barked once enthusiastically.


Alicia retrieved their cans of food from the cupboard and served them each a generous serving, which once again led to a calm silence in the apartment, with the exception of the eager sounds of their eating.


She then flicked on the large screen television after which she made her way to the second floor (with one leap), bounding the upper railing and landing softly on the other side.


She then stripped off her clothing, one garment at a time and eyed herself carefully in the mirror.


"Good. Nothing off about my body considering this is the ninth week since my having taken the Series Y formula, and over that time I've certainly put my new body through the rigors of extensive testing... in a matter of speaking," Alicia noted that her body and form were still as remarkable as the day she'd taken the formula.


Alicia then stepped into the bathroom, and from there, into the shower, where she washed the stresses and worries of her day down the drain.


"...more and more Torontonians have been reporting sightings of the mysterious masked woman in the trench coat. Just last week she was seen scaling 22 Front Street West, where she quickly disappeared from sight before onlookers could get a picture of her. Here's more from independent video journalist, Janice Yu," the anchor of CityTV Evening Edition announced as Alicia threw the weight of the day off of her shoulders in the shower.


"Last week, Toronto residents Ellen and Denny Smith were on their way to a local restaurant on Front Street when they spotted a woman in a long black trench coat scaling the side of 22 Front Street West: 'She was already halfway up the side wall when my wife and I spotted her. She seemed to be using various outcroppings, leaping up the wall in a series of leaps and bounds before she made it to the roof and disappeared,'" Janice, an attractive and assertive woman reported to her viewers.


"This is the fifth such sighting over the course of the last six months, which has some Toronto residents spooked. I'm here live with Police Detective Edward Farnham about these reports. Detective Farnham, what do you have to say about what these people are witnessing?: 'We're skeptical about these reports until we see some real evidence, though I should point out that if there are thrill seekers using Toronto buildings for publicity stunts or just seeking thrills, that you could end up seriously injured or even killed, not to mention that you might be putting others' lives at risk. Especially those who might try to copy you. There are proper channels one must go through to legally perform such displays, much the same as movie shoots must book with the city when they're shooting on city street locations,'" Detective Farnham responded to Janice's question.


"Detective, Is the Toronto Police Service investigating these reports?" to which Detective Farnham was pictured answering: "No. At this current time we have no investigation regarding these reports, though we have a number of patrol officers who are aware of the situation and are keeping an eye out just to make sure that nobody gets hurt," Detective Farnham replied.


"There you have it from Detective Farnham. As far as the mysterious lady is concerned, we'll just have to watch and wait until she reveals herself again. This is Janice Yu reporting courtesy of CityTV Evening Edition," Janice smiled for the camera before the scene switched the anchor desk.


"In other news, the warehousing and manufacturing sector has taken a hit in recent times, with a series of attacks by vandals against a number of such operations, leaving Toronto businesses questioning whether its safe to operate in the city. CityTV correspondent Nelson Ryder reports.


"Across the GTA, and out as far as Scarborough and Mississauga, Toronto is seeing elevated vandalism targeting warehousing and manufacturing sites, including a number of break-ins costing local businesses hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars thus far. I spoke with local real estate developer Elsen Wendell earlier today on the issue: 'We're seeing a rise in vandalism at a number of sites throughout the GTA, many of which have been my personal customers though I'd like to remind residents and business owners that these situations are isolated in nature and that the city of Toronto is still very much one of the safest places in the world to operate a business,'" Elsen, a well dressed tall man in his late forties with greying hair spoke to the reporter.


...


Near 22 Front Street West, Detective Farnham approached Janice as she and her videographer prepped their equipment for the return to the studio.


"I take it we're done here?" asked Farnham of Janice.


"Oh? Yes. We're finished. Thank you so much for your remarks about the situation. I'll see you again sometime I'm sure," Janice smiled at Farnham, who extended his hand.


"It was a pleasure," Farnham smiled and turned to return to his car, where his partner was standing, leaning against the side door.


"Old man on TV again? They need young man like me!" Somboon, a digital forensic specialist said to Farnham as he approached the car.


"That's national television, not Riverdale bozo," Farnham said to Somboon as he walked around the car to the driver's seat.


"Hey, watch it old man. I have family in Riverdale you know?" Somboon responded, opening the passenger door and getting in at the same time as Farnham.


"Not the district, I meant the television show, although when I was a kid, it was called Archie. You know. A lot of young people with hip hair cuts and all.  I guess you'd call it a yoap opera," Farnham started the car.


"A what?" Somboon confirmed.


"A yoap opera. A youth soap opera," Farnham carefully pulled the car out into traffic.


"I don't know where you are old man. Delerius maybe? Premature retirement might be a good idea. So what'd they ask you?" asked Somboon.


"They asked me about the trench coat woman... again..." Farnham told Somboon, seemingly dissatisfied.


"What did you tell them?" asked Somboon, really pressing it with his partner.


"What they're allowed to know," Farnham replied, quickly losing his patience with his partner.


"So you left out the part about how she's connected with the recent spate of vandalism?" Somboon continued pressing it.


"...and the part about how every time we arrive on the scene, there's just a bunch of unconscious thugs, who get cycled through the system faster than we can lock them up," Farnham looked to Somboon and smiled.


"We need stronger locks for them," Somboon replied with his own smile.


"We need better legal tools for the prosecutor in the forms of statutes and laws, and we need stiffer sentences and a better grip on parole. We need policy changes, not punishment hardware," Farnham responded.


"Yeah, whatever. Sometimes you think too much when you should act old man. So where to now?" asked Somboon, somewhat less abrasively.


"We're checking out a manufactory in the downtown towards Commissioner Street. I got a tip that Walton Norler's going to be there. Part of his new Business Edict, giving a tour of a new facility and building confidence amongst investors," Farnham told Somboon.


"Are we invited?" Somboon looked to Farnham, a humourously inquisitive look on his face.


"No. We're going as a safety measure. I'd love to catch the vandals during the commission of their crime," Farnham replied.


"So we're conducting a stakeout," Somboon went through the utility box in the dash and retrieved his thermal imaging camera.


"Yes, but off of the books. Besides, weren't you the one last week who was saying that we need more action?" Farnham asked Somboon as they turned left onto Commissioner's Street.


"I meant with the ladies! Not with the guns!" Somboon replied with a smile on his face and a wink to Farnham, telling his partner that he was only joking.


...


Alicia had by that time finished buckling the last clip on her boots, and had rolled up her black trench coat and her domino mask into a tiny bag which she slung over her shoulder as Mr. Frisker and Barker once again came running over to her.


"Alright. Mommy's got to go out for a bit and see if this Mr. Norler is just another one of the bad guys or if he's the real deal. You two make sure that you behave now," Alicia said to them as they watched her slip over to the door to the fire escape. She opened it and stepped out into the night.


A few minutes later and she'd flagged a taxi to drop her off at Lakeshore Boulevard and Saulter Street. From there, she was on her own as the mysterious trench coat girl.


...


Walton Norler led a group of six men, each of them attired in three piece business suits, through the new Tynan Pharmaceuticals Manufacturing facility, he with his own business jacket slung over his shoulders and the sleeves of his button down shirt rolled up as if he was ready to jump onto the production line himself.


"These facilities are amongst the most advanced in the world, and are being prepared for the next generation of medical pharmaceuticals being developed at our research facility. We've targeted markets that have been cash cows for generations, and with out next generation of treatments, we believe that we're going achieve supremacy over a number of diseases, though I'm going to wait until the CDA has approved them I can say more. Gentlemen, you're getting in on something that is truly going to change the world as we know it. It begins with our case studies of numerous patients over the years, continues on to our research wing, and will finally be resolved here, in our manufacturing facility. From here, we'll be shipping to pharmaceutical warehousing operations all over the world, and all in line with my better business edict," Norler assured the men, as they examined the facility.


"I thought pharmaceutical lines required centrifuges and clean rooms?" asked Rodney, one of the men familiar with investments involving the production of pharmaceuticals.


"Not this one, though we do utilize centrifuges, they aren't the large clunky ones with which you're familiar. They're micro-fuges. State of the art, high speed, chaotic turbulency capable. They're grouped in rows of six, by six in height. They achieve the same results in one eighth of the time per cycle, and process twice as much input material as their larger, clunkier cousins," Norler smiled, feeling a sense of relief that he'd spent the time researching the technical details for the tour of the plant.


"As for the clean rooms? We've integrated them into the manufacturing process. At several stages along the production line, we can divert materials to a mobile clean room stage, which can be plugged in at any point along the production line, and is entirely automated, or it can be manually operated by trained staff. Most use cases will involve automation, but our staff will always include at least three clean room process trained technicians. Staff who are essential to our production line and the monitoring thereof," Norler pointed out one of the mobile clean room modules, which appeared like a translucent stand up closet with a work table, shelves and a variety of tools.


At the top of these clean room modules were a series of three automated robotic arms, each of which possessed six dual jointed fingers, capable of manipulating precision tools with the utmost delicacy.


...


MissGvious sat at the driver's seat in her Lincoln Continental, parked a few blocks from the manufacturing facility. Beside her car were two unmarked vans, each of them full of her field operators as she liked to refer to them.


In her own car, there was Stakz in the passenger seat. He was a large fellow, as tall as her without about twice as much muscle, his vein popping arms having led to his nickname. In the backseat were Wakk and RokSteddi, two more of her thugz and along with Stakz, her backup when things got hectic.


"Yo! You ready Stakz? Wakk? RokSteddi?" she asked them, grabbing her phone from the tray between the front seats.


"Ima ready as I'll ever be!" Stakz was quick to respond.


"Lets go gurl!" Wakk replied.


"You know I'm with you gurl," RokSteddi added.


She dialed the phone and a man on the other end answered it.


"MissGvious I presume? How are you tonight?" asked Torman of her.


"So we're clear on this info you told me, right?" MissGvious got right to the point.


Torman cupped his hand over the phone and turned to Valerie, who sat beside him on the sofa as they watched City on a Hill.


"Honey, I've got to go take this call elsewhere. I'll be right back," Torman leaned over close to Valerie, who wrapped her arms around him and pulled him even closer.


"I want a kiss first," Valerie demanded of him.


He leaned in closer and gave her a quick peck on the lips.


"No. I want a real kiss," Valerie insisted.


He leaned into the kiss this time, remaining fixated on her lips for as long as he could without drawing the ire of his caller. He then leaned away from her and smiled.


"I'll be right back for more of that," Torman said to her as he got up.


He left the living room and the same giant screen upon which his father used to watch movies, and headed into the kitchen, where one of his security staff stood leaning against the counter, eating the last bits of a cookie.


"Mike. I'm going to need a minute," Torman said to the personal security specialist.


"Sure thing Mr. Torman," Mike stepped away from the counter and walked out of the room and found his way to the front door, where he stepped out for a smoke.


"Yep. We're as clear as day on this. Norler's interference with the members of the board is what ultimately got your father killed. Norler's been playing us all for a very long time, but he's such a goody two shoes that he's almost untouchable," Torman explained to MissGvious.


"Ain't nobody untouchable. Especially the man who got my father done!" MissGvious said with an immeasurable pain and intensity, which left her lips as the ripest of contained anger.


"I'll believe it when I hear about it. I wish you luck, 'cause you're going to need it. He's a slippery one that one," Torman remained skeptical.


"Oh. And one more thing. You know that girl you used to go to school with? The Chinese one? The one that you really liked?" Torman said to her with a grin.


"You mean Heylyn or Helayne or whatever the heck her name wuz?" MissGvious confirmed with Torman.


"That's the one. She's connected to this whole deal that went down with your father's death. Turns out she's tampering in our affairs. Downtown. She foiled a robbery that involved one of your contacts. Samias. The guy from Montreal? Well it turns out that Helayne and her friends having exposed the corruption at her school before graduation, actually had repercussions that led the rival cartel to take out your father. Helayne's exposition of the school corruption exposed him as a  former hitman. Norler years later cut off one of their laundering operations, and after those two incidents, it was only a matter of time before they figured out the connection with your father. If you'd take care of Norler and Helayne, I think you'd be on the road to healing a wound that has for too long festered on your soul,"  Torman said to her, speaking like someone who cared about her.


"Norler? He's in that manufacturing plant right now, selling Tynan out. Helayne? She can be found at 240 Adelaide Street West. She just purchased the building and is overseeing work crews as they finish renovations. She'll be there with another girl. Monique. That's Samias' ex-girlfriend. She's  got a lot on him, and she needs to be taken out. After all, you want her as a witness against you in court now, would you?" asked Torman somewhat rhetorically.


"They'll both be done before this night's over," MissGvious assured Torman.


Torman pulled a notepad from his pocket and scratched the names of Norler, Helayne and Monique from it, drawing a thick line through each of them as he spoke.


"As long as we're clear on your info being accurate," MissGvious said to him, clarifying the facts with him one last time.


"Oh, I'm clear as can be on this. Trust me, I'm ever so clear," Torman smiled as he spoke.


"I'm going to get it done. I'll call you tomorrow, when me and my fellas might be needin' a new line of work. Maybe seeing as what I'm about to do will be helpin' you, you'll help me out too," MissGvious insisted.


"Call me tomorrow on this number," Torman smiled to her.


With that, MissGvious hung up.


Torman then left the kitchen and walked to the front door and opened it, handing his phone to Mike.


"Take this, and have the number changed immediately, though message all of my contacts except for MissGvious and her crew with the new number. Got it?" Torman explained to him.


"Sure thing boss," Mike responded, accepting the phone and pocketing it as he finished his cigarette.


Torman then returned to Valerie on the sofa and lay down with the side of his face resting against her breast.


"All finished?" asked Valerie.


"Certainly am. Just had to tie up a few loose ends," Torman smiled as he crawled up her body and found her lips once again.

...


MissGvious got out of the car first, and upon her stepping out the car, it was easy to see that she was wearing a purple skintight suit, like a gladiator or a wrestler, a pair of gauntlets, one on each wrist and even with a small cape. She affixed a mask over her eyes and wrapped her curly red and frilly hair up in a purple bandana, while the rest of her crew donned their tube masks.


...


"Somboon?" Farnham said quietly to his partner, who had leaned over against the passenger window of their concealed care and was now asleep.


Farnham leaned over the shook his partner.


Somboon awoke with a start, reaching for his service pistol.


"They pulled up a few minutes ago, with two vans. Look at that! They've got like twenty of 'em. Armed," Farnham told Somboon as he contacted the radio room.


"Why didn't you tell me?" Somboon asked Farnham in shock, as he rubbed his eyes.


"I did! You must have been asleep!" Farnham insisted as he requested backup.


"We should wait for the backup!" Somboon insisted.


"Those guys in that meeting with Walton Norler, they might not have that much time left!" Farnham explained to Somboon.


"So you're saying its better that we die too?" Somboon looked at their odds thoroughly.


"No. But the two of us, if we're careful, we might be able to delay them. Hold them off until the backup gets here," Farnham insisted, stepping out of the car and drawing his pistol.


Somboon shook his head, and grabbed both the shotguns and a box of ammo from the utility box.


"I must be crazy following you old man!" Somboon threw the shotgun at Farnham.


"If crazy is what we need to get the job done, then so be it. Just cautious and careful. When we bluff, don't give 'em an inch. Got it partner?" Farnham said firmly as he holstered his hand gun and checked the shotgun.


"I got it. Lets do it," Somboon said as he cocked the shotgun.
