My life in 40 pictures

2009-04-07T01:58:00.000-04:00

2009 being the year of my 40th birthday I give you this photo essay illustrating my life in 40 pictures.

Light the dark corners of fate is the key To finding answers for unknown questions Set fourth by our master in his quest to
Lead us through the life we so desire.-excerpt from one of my prose entitled "Shadow Destiny"

Christmas 2008

2008-12-27T16:46:00.001-05:00

I am totally pleased with how 2008 has slipped by without any major drama, at this time last year I was starting a new job, this Christmas marked my one year tenure with the company. The only bad thing was the fact that the companies suppliers shut down for two weeks over the holidays, so we had to do the same. So to keep me from going into Christmas chaos overload I decided to donate my time down at the local Salvation Army a couple days before Christmas helping get out the hampers. It was a day and a half of pure vigor, it was a pleasure to give back to my fellow blue collar brother and sisters. Lets face it, most of us are a weeks pay away from needing a hand up. Please support your local food banks in any way to can.

Of course my 16 month old cat Eden is still a big part of my life so I couldn't resist making a Christmas card out of a couple cute photos I took of her trying to peek out of the window, past the slow drift that accumulated on the window box.

Happy New Year,
Kenaz

New photo of Eden

2008-05-04T20:42:00.001-04:00

This the latest stylish photo of my now 8.5 month old cat Eden.

Rest in peace Emilly

2008-03-08T17:07:00.000-05:00

This is a tribute to my cat Emilly. On March 6,2008 it pained me to have to put her down. After fifteen years of being a great part of my life, so full of energy and spirit, it was tough to watch her struggle each day to even take a single breath, so after consultation with the vet I decided it was the humane thing to end her fight.

She had to many things wrong with her, a thyroid condition that could have lead to diabetes. She was going blind, they found a tumour and she stopped eating and going to the bathroom.

This is a tribute to her spirit and all the wonderful memories.

Here's an excerpt from "Dichotomy of Dallas Black" a story that I wrote that was originally meant as a book but I later decided to turn into a script entitled "BLACK CRYSTAL". Much of Emilly's description was cut from the script due to length issues, so I'm happy to include it here.

As he entered the compound, he took his first tentative steps back into the new world. The first to welcome him was one of the simplest creatures placed on earth. Yet, a creature that provided Dallas an outlet for his most complex emotions to flow. Emotions, up to that moment had been void in his life. Emotions such as love, compassion and kindness. Emotions that had been betrayed or simply let go of.

The still of silence was gently breached with a soft mewing emanating from a Calico feline that had taken up watch just inside the gate. Eagerly awaiting, like some dutiful servant, waiting for their master to return from battle. The sight of his four legged friend, brought a smile to the face of Dallas, something that had been missing for a great deal of time. Dallas bent down and gently scooped up and cradled his feline honour guard. Immediately, the creature began to emit a relaxing purr, a sound one hundred and eighty degrees from the defining roar of the beast, that once roared in the ears of Dallas. This gentile creature moulded by the same hands that created the heavens and earth, had been given the ironic name of Emilly.

Emilly was named after my favourite Canadian painter Emilly Carr. Like Carr, Emilly was a free spirit, at times extremely independant, other times more than willing to share her love.

Here is a video and photo tribute to Emilly.

Many more photos and videos of Emilly can be found at
http://whiteoliphantfamilyphotos.blogspot.com/

Goodbye Emilly enjoy your life in heaven, you provided so much joy during your short stay on earth and I'm sure you will be greatly rewarded. Her legacy has been handed down to my 6 and a half month old Calico "Eden"

Psalms 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Peace,
Kenaz

Eden Catwalking

2007-11-28T23:56:00.000-05:00

This time lapse video of three month old Eden is set to John Coltane's "Catwalk".

Here are some interesting facts about Calico's
Q. Are Calico Cats Always Female?

Many people are surprised to hear that the vast majority of calico cats are female. Why is this? Is it possible for a calico cat to ever be male? Learn about the genetics of coat color in this feline FAQ.
A. First off, what is a calico cat? A calico cat is not a breed of cat, it is a color pattern. To be called "calico", three colors must be present: black, white and orange. Variations of these colors include gray, cream and ginger. A "true" calico cat has large blocks of these three colors, a "tortoise shell" or "tortie" cat has a mix of these three colors (blended/swirled together more than distinct blocks of color). Be sure to stop by the Calico Cat Gallery on the About.com Cats site to see photos of a variety of calico cats.

Now that a calico cat has been defined as a cat with three colors, the question is: why are they nearly always female? The answer is in genetics. Coat color in cats is a sex-linked trait, a physical characteristic (coat color) related to gender. Female animals have two X chromosomes (XX), males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome (XY). The genetic coding for displaying black or orange color is found on the X chromosome. The coding for white is a completely separate gene.

Since females have two X chromosomes, they are able to "display" two colors (orange and black, or variations thereof) and white; creating the 3-color calico mix. Since males have only one X chromosome, they can only be orange OR black. It is more complicated than simply having the color genes -- it is a complex process of dominant and non-dominate genes interacting on the X chromosomes, but that is the basis for coat color in calico cats. For those of you interested in the detailed coat color genetics, please see the "Related Reading" articles at the bottom of this FAQ.

Can a calico cat ever be male? Yes, in rare instances. In this situation, the cat has two X chromosomes and one Y chromosome (XXY). Cats with this chromosomal configuration are usually sterile (not able to breed). This is similar to a condition in humans called Klinefelter's syndrome, or XXY Syndrome.

Emilly and Eden finally Co-Exist!!!

2007-11-23T03:28:00.000-05:00

Well sort of. The two can be in the same room together, but they have to be supervised, as the following pictures proove.
Eden reflects out the window for a couple seconds. Gets bored.Thinks of a plan.Stocks her prey.Got it! Eden isn't much of an Angels fan. Emilly gives that FTF! look.

Oh well, its a first step.

2007-10-02T18:12:00.001-04:00

Her name is Eden, she is six weeks old. Like Emilly(14 years old) she is also a Tortoise Shell Calico. Unfortunately the two don't co-exist yet. I let Emilly keep her roost in the bottom of the house and Eden is quickly staking her claim on the top level. One day the twain shall meet!

Shopping on Sunday

2007-04-29T15:14:00.000-04:00

Today was grocery day, here's my digital postcard of this beautiful Sunday afternoon.

1:15pm- Finished grocery shopping at the Price Choppers. Snapped a quick shot of the busy parking lot of the Stadium Mall as my cab rolled up. Looks more like a used Mini-Van car lot. Side note, in one of my editorial cartoons I depicted a guy that used to sit out side the liquor store and tried to sing for his supper. I guess he realized he would be very hungry if he stayed, he's gone thankfully and has been replaced with a guy with some actual talent. Thinks are looking up in the East end.

1:28pm-Back home with my booty. Looked like a lot more in the buggy.

1:37pm-Got the grub dragged in the house, under the watchful eye of Emilly who is always sharp to find her stuff. Now to train her scoop her own.

1:44pm-An incredible five variety stores down Barton St East to find one that sold a bus pass, price $65.00. Groceries $207.61, to restock a bare kitchen, five bucks for a cab, a stop at Timmies. Summary 90 minutes to burn through $280=

1:46-Twenty bucks left for coffee money for the week!

2:08pm-Enjoying my last cold one. What a great day.

Styling and chillin'

Me chillin' in my backyard with a cold one, enjoying the great Spring weather last weekend. Work really kicked the h-e double hockey sticks out of my elbow so I threw on the tension bandage. The Jays unfortunately where losing so I didn't care when the power went out because of a car slamming into a pole up the street.

This was the background image that I used on the old "White Elephant" template. I loved it so much, I hated to let it go, but it just didn't fit the new rounders template I'm using now. So I decided to bring it back as a post. The piece is titled "Comes the Tide" by Roberta Wesley.

Slowly putting the family tree in photos together, I will post as I gather. I'm calling out to any Bell or Oliphant families, leave a note or sign the guest book I would love to hear from you. Side note, to any Oliphants out there, please, I have no photos of my Grandpa Harold Oliphant, father to Kenneth and Albert Oliphant, as well as Eileen Back and Sherry Hurtel(nee Oliphant). If you know of any such photos I would love to hear from you.

Oliphant logo that I created. Oliphant translates from the Celtic language to mean "Bull Elephant". The Celts in 42AD created the word to describe the sound of the approaching Roman army who included fifty elephants in their attack. What the hell, if it worked for Hannibal 250 years earlier going over the alps, the English Channel should have been a cake walk for Emperor Claudius' commander Aulus Plautius. They ivy wreath intertwined around the elephants trunk represents litterally my mother who's middle name was ivy, as well as figuratively, the bonds of love that my parents shared. Here is a link to the history of the battle of Medway, Kent. http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/encyclopedia/r/ro/roman_invasion_of_britain.htm
