Living Waters: Reflecting on the Source and Summit of Life
A One Day Workshop on World Water Day
Presented by Alanna Mitchell, Dennis O'Hara and John McCarthy, S.J.
All terrestrial life has come from oceans. Now the life of the oceans is in peril; what does this mean for life itself? What does this mean for the Creator who breathed across the waters? What does this mean for the destiny of humanity and the rest of creation? Join a group of scientists, theologians and fellow inquirers on World Water Day to contemplate these important questions!
Saturday, March 22, 2014
10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Regis College (100 Wellesley St. W, Toronto)

In this workshop we will use the documentary "Queers Fight the WTO" to engage in a conversation on why LGBTQI individuals and communities must organize with other marginalized groups in order to achieve liberation for all. We will discuss the state of the mainstream LGBTQI movement and ways that we as LGBTQI activists and organizers can organize with an integrated anti-oppression analysis that encorporates class, race, gender and sexuality. Using the organizing model of Allyship we will demonstrate practical ways activists can use to create progressive multi-issue LGBTQI organizing strategies.

Abstract: Both seismological and geodynamic research emphasize that the Aegean Region, which comprises the Hellenic Arc, the Greek mainland and Western Turkey is the most seismically active region in Western Eurasia. The convergence of the Eurasian and African lithospheric plates forces a westward motion on the Anatolian plate relative to the Eurasian one. Western Anatolia is a valuable laboratory for Earth Science research because of its complex geological structure. Izmir is a large city in Turkey with a population of about 2.5 million that is at great risk from big earthquakes. Unfortunately, previous geodynamics studies performed in this region are insufficient or cover large areas instead of specific faults. The Tuzla Fault, which is aligned trending NE–SW between the town of Menderes and Cape Doganbey, is an important fault in terms of seismic activity and its proximity to the city of Izmir. This study aims to perform a large scale investigation focusing on the Tuzla Fault and its vicinity for better understanding of the region's tectonics. In order to investigate the crustal deformation along the Tuzla Fault and Izmir Bay, a geodetic network has been designed and optimizations were performed. This paper suggests a schedule for a crustal deformation monitoring study which includes research on the tectonics of the region, network design and optimization strategies, theory and practice of processing. The study is also open for extension in terms of monitoring different types of fault characteristics. A one-dimensional fault model with two parameters – standard strike-slip model of dislocation theory in an elastic half-space – is formulated in order to determine which sites are suitable for the campaign based geodetic GPS measurements. Geodetic results can be used as a background data for disaster management systems.
