Happy Feet returns home
509
Last June, an exhausted and hungry emperor penguin was found on the beach in
Peka Peka, New Zealand’s North Island. It was lost and thousands of kilometres
from its home in the Antarctic, where penguins normally live. Because it was so
weak, it was taken to Wellington Zoo. Penguins eat snow to cool themselves down
but this one had eaten a lot of sand thinking that it was snow. The vets removed
the sand from its stomach and the staff gave it food and took good care of it. It
became so popular that the amount of visitors at the zoo almost doubled and
people nicknamed it Happy Feet like the film.
After spending several weeks at the zoo, Happy Feet is now well enough to return
home. Last Monday it was loaded on a boat in a specially designed box to keep it
cool and comfortable. It will be released on Campbell Island, 2,000 km from the
Antarctic. According to researchers, the island is within the normal living area of
emperor penguins, so Happy Feet will be able to swim back home and hopefully
meet some penguins it knows on its way. It will carry a GPS* tracker so that
researchers and the public can follow its journey at www.wellingtonzoo.com

Our score
Kronos and Patti Smith got Polar Prize
509
Polar Music Prize was founded more than twenty years ago by Stikkan Andersson, a publisher,
lyricist and manager of ABBA. It was named after Andersson’s record label, Polar Records. In
1989 Stikkan donated 42 million SEK to establish the world’s biggest music prize. The prize is
among the most highly regarded music prizes in the world, awarded to persons, groups, or
institutions for extraordinary musical achievements. The award ceremony takes place in
Stockholm every year and the first laureates were Sir Paul McCartney and the Baltic States in
1992. The Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were awarded one million each to
establish a performing rights organization like STIM* in Sweden.
This year’s laureates are Kronos Quartet, an American string quartet founded in 1973, and Patti
Smith. Kronos play a wide range of music from folk, experimental and medieval music to film
sound tracks, jazz and tango. They have also worked together with musicians like Björk, the
Romanian gypsy band Taraf de Haidouks, Tom Waits, David Bowie and Nelly Furtado.
Patti Smith, an American poet and musician, became an important member of the New York
punk movement in 1975 with her first album Horses, a mixture of punk and verbal poetry, and
she was nicknamed the Godmother of Punk. The following years she recorded three more
albums: Radio Ethiopia, Easter and Wave. Easter included one of her best known songs,
Because the Night, which she wrote together with Bruce Springsteen. In 1979 she moved to
Detroit, got married, stopped performing and became a full-time mother. It took nine years
before she released next album – Dream of Life. When her husband and two of her closest
friends died, she decided to move back to New York. In 1995 she released Gone Again and
toured briefly with Bob Dylan. Except recording, performing, art projects and writing, she has
always been strongly involved in social issues and in many human rights organizations. She was
a speaker and singer at the first protest meeting against the Iraq war in 2002, and in 2006 she
performed two new protest songs – Qana, which is about the Israeli bombing of the village of
Qana in Lebanon, and Without Chains about Murat Kurnaz, a Turkish citizen born and raised in
Germany, imprisoned in Guantamo Bay for four years. While touring with her band, she keeps
on writing and creating art projects. In addition to her ten albums, she has written several books
and Just Kids, published in January last year, won the National Book Award. She got the Polar
Prize for “demonstrating how much rock’n’roll there is in poetry and how much poetry there is
in rock’n’roll”.
