The Worcestershire Bridleways & Riders Association supports and promotes our local bridleways. Since the club's inception, the WBRA has created several Private Parking Places which enables our members to park securely and enjoy a variety of rides throughout the county. During the year we organise escorted rides from these PPP's to guide members round areas they may not be familiar with.
The WBRA runs the permit scheme within the Wyre Forest. Permits have always been required to ride in the forest and in 2011 the WBRA took over the running of the scheme. We have also negotiated a private parking area, separate from the main car park.
We also work with our local County Council, BHS team and parish wardens to maintain bridlepaths and fix problems that arise.
We hope you enjoy looking through this web site and find helpful information and events, we always welcome ideas and suggestions for anything relating to bridleways and riders enjoyment in and around Worcestershire.
Sadly - due to a change in land ownership, the ride at Upton Snodsbury is closing at the end of October 2013.

Serves 4
Smoother, rounder, and deeper in color than standard lemons, Meyer lemons are less acidic, with orange and floral flavor notes.
Finely grate 2 tsp. zest from one of the lemons. Squeeze 1-1/2 lemons to yield 2 Tbs. of juice. Thinly slice the remaining half and cut each slice into quarters; set aside.
In a 10- to 11-inch straight-sided sauté pan, melt 3 Tbs. of the butter over medium heat until foamy. Add the endives, pears, lemon juice, lemon zest, and 1/2 tsp. salt; stir to combine. Cover, reduce the heat to medium low, and cook, stirring occasionally until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the lid and cook until the endives and pears are lightly browned in places, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the chives.
While the endives and pears cook, combine the flour and cornmeal in a shallow dish. Season the fish lightly with salt and pepper and then dredge it in the cornmeal mixture. Heat 1/2 Tbs. of the butter with 1 Tbs. of the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook 2 of the fillets, flipping once, until golden-brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean plate. Wipe out the skillet and repeat with another 1/2 Tbs. butter and the remaining 1 Tbs. oil and fillets. Transfer to the plate with the other fish. Wipe out the skillet again.
Heat the remaining 2 Tbs. butter in the pan until melted and browned and then stir in the lemon slices and a pinch of salt. Add the wine, bring to a simmer, and reduce by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Divide the pear mixture among 4 dinner plates and top with a fillet. Spoon the lemon pan sauce over the fish, garnish with chives, and serve.

12/16/2012I liked the flavors but I think this needs double the amount of pear/endive mixture (with less butter!) and the flounder was not too crispy
by sernst,
11/29/2012This is one of those really clever recipes that makes a main and a side in a relatively short time. I had all the ingredients, but ended up using one large apple instead of the pears as mine weren't ripe enough. It was really delicious, my husband and I agreed. The meyer lemon adds a citrus flavor that isn't too tart. I enjoyed the combination of cornmeal and flour on the fish, although there was a lot of the dredging mixture left over. The cooked endive was unusual. Letting the endive and pear (in my case apple) saute uncovered for a few minutes at the end made parts of it nice and caramelized. I felt that the chives added just enough of a green accent, especially if you pair it with a green salad. I wondered if we would need another, more starchy side like rice or something, but it was filling on its own. Definitely a keeper for when I want something a little more fancy (but hardly much more work) than a standard meuniere.
by Floridafoodie,
7/17/2012Very nice except for the endive and overall appearance of the dish. Cooked endive was soggy and tough. Meal was white/colorless. Fresh asparagus, or something green on the plate next to this dish would have made it more visually appealing. Fish, sauce and pears were very good.
by daylilygirl,
3/7/2012I happened to have all the ingredients in the house including the Meyer lemons. I was a bit doubtful about the combination, but it was wonderful. The flavor was really good. I used 6 flounder fillets, which worked out fine, and everything else the same as the recipe. Instead of serving individually, I placed the endive combination on a platter and topped with the fish and sauce. Three of us had two helpings apiece. Yum.
by Goliath58,
1/29/2012I made this with regular lemon instead of Meyer lemons. I thought it was too lemony. My husband said, "this is wonderful!" So I think it can be improved to five stars by using the Meyer lemons.

These are very hard words for me to write, let alone to say. Initially, we'd say Asperger's. But now that it's not even a thing anymore, we say ASD. Somehow the initials feel less grave. Less final. Less life-altering. But the truth is, everything is different now, and no new phrase or abbreviation is going to change that.
Life with Liam has not been easy. After recently turning down a great (non-freelance) job offer to stay home with him, concerned with his catastrophic and violent outbursts, difficulty adjusting at school, and day-to-day chaos in the family with the new baby, my husband and I found ourselves at our wits end. We really didn't want to take him to a specialist. We didn't want him to be labelled. I think we both feared for what we might find, that our son–who we'd always thought of as brilliant and tenacious and stubborn and clever–would be held up to scrutiny and found… different. Sure, every kid has their quirks. But any parent going through a situation similar to ours knows there's a point where you break. Where you stop blaming yourself for being a bad parent and you get clarity, perspective, and everything stands still.
It became clear to me that Liam might be something altogether different when my husband and I startedwatching the television show Parenthood. In the show, for those unfamiliar, Adam and Kristina Braverman start out the first season with their son Max's diagnosis of Asperger's. After watching Max's story unfold, and seeing his behavior acted out on television, I started to see a more clear picture of my own son. The tantrums, the obsessions, the violence, the black and white thinking, the anger and frustration over changes of plan, the patterns. Michael and I would get really quiet as we watched his scenes, and things started to come together.
And in some ways that's expected. Nothing, so far, has gone according to plan with Liam.

HALIFAX, NS – The greatest driver of inflation in transportation pricing will not be rising equipment costs but the need for talent, according to Doug Harrison, COO of Day and Ross Transportation Group.
The need to find talent will also prove to be one of the greatest limiters to growth for Canada's transportation industry, Harrison told a packed room of shippers and carriers attending the Multi-Modal C-Suite Panel at CITT's Reposition 2012 conference this week.
Not only is talent hard to find, it's also hard to retain, at least in the trucking industry. Harrison pointed out that driver turnover among some of the larger Truckload fleets in the US tops 100%. He questioned how fleets besieged by such high turnover can train their drivers and engage them in providing superior customer service.
The graying of the current transportation workforce will also add to the shortage.
The talent shortage was the first of three key issues which Harrison felt would impact commercial trucking. What the industry has to do to ensure its capacity is in line with the new normal of a slowly growing economy was another issue Harrison considered. Carriers have to consider how much capacity they can remove and still provide quality service, he said.
Certain to have an impact on trucking capacity levels and the need for drivers are changing shipper attitudes towards using intermodal services. Traditionally it was commonly accepted that the economics of rail surpassed the economics of trucking services at around the 750-mile mark. During the discussion of the C-Suite Panel, however, Harrison said that may have shifted down to 500 miles, with many motor carriers themselves using rail services. And, in some cases, rail service could be viable at as low as a 350-mile distance as a way to avoid congested corridors such as Toronto to Montreal.
The need to make heavy investments in technology is another key issue shaping transportation, according to Harrison.
"Companies are looking to be a lot more responsive at the last minute. This creates pressure on suppliers to be very agile," Harrison explained and that agility requires the visibility into supply chain operations that allows fast and intelligent decision making. Technology is necessary for reaching that state.
Harrison was joined on the blue-chip panel by Jeff Cullen, CEO Bellville Rodair; Neil McKenna, vice president, transportation, Canadian Tire; Rudy Mack, founder Rudy Mack Associates; Jean Jacques Ruest, executive vice president & chief marketing officer, CN Rail, and Lise Marie Turpin, vice president, Air Canada Cargo.

I don,t want to sound like a old grumpy gear grinder, I love driving, I love travel and I really like meeting all sorts of characters out on the road. I find a few critical factors missing with the fleets I have worked with, first, the internal hypocrites we deal with( operations and safety ). The incompetents of untrained dispatching i.e.: mainly people skills, and the disregard for hours at pick ups and deliveries. If these points were tweaked, well it speaks for it self. I am 55 and have just changed companies after 10 years with the same accident and incident free.I hope it will be my last. Company integrity and a positive attitude will retain people. To my fellow drivers " may the forces be with you "ciao

Recognize that it is a **PROFESSION**, just like dentists or lawyers.However, with that said, a lot of driver are doing themselves a disservice by not **ACTING** or **LOOKING** like professionals. Maybe we need to go back to UNIFORMS . Might not be a bad thing. Just getting some of the unhealthy ones....into a uniform, will be a challenge.--John

HOURLY PAY the only way to keep good Driver's.If trucking company's want to attract and hold on to GOOD Drivers they need to take the cue from Great Britan as I have heard that they have LEGISLATED away the money per mile as a SAFETY concern because it FORCES Drivers to drive(when they should be resting) and fudge the logs to "KEEP THE WHEELS ROLLING" to make any money.Pay Drivers well and by the hour what they are worth as a skilled trade, and retention and safety scores will reflect the pride that most drivers feel when the drive is done and the bills are paid.And remember" IF YOU USE IT , EAT IT , LIVE IN IT OR WEAR IT , IT CAME BY TRUCK !!!!!!

As a Ontario driver who has "hung up the keys" just before the age of 65 I think the the whole industry has to change & nobody seems to want to!!!! The Carriers are still stuck on paying by the mile & getting a bargain of free labour from the drivers & O/O when the driver isn't moving. The shippers don't care if they hold you up 2 or 3 hrs at the dock "BUT you'd better make the delivery on time" We have had to defend ourselves from the weigh scales, & all the other regulations that you need a lawyer to understand!!! Who in their "right mind" would want to get into this industry, low pay, no family life, responsible for just about everything, & it's always "our" fault when things go wrong!!!I taught truck driving for a little while, but 1/2 the students didn't show up for allotted lesson, so again "NO PAY"& most of the students were just there to collect UIC or welfare & were not interested in going into this line of work when they found out what was involved!!! Sad situation from the years gone by!!! I don't miss it a bit!!!!!

I'm not a driver although I've been around the transportation Industry for more than twenty years. I'm a behavioral scientist who has been involved with Carriers of all sizes and forms.The comments above are absolutely valid - but there's a deeper, underlying factor which contributes significantly to the issues mentioned - respect for drivers. This is the 'elephant in the room' that too few are ready to discuss.Drivers are the spearpoint; they manage the hundreds of thousands of 'moments-of-truth' that happen every day in the industry. They make (or break) customer satisfaction issues, profit margins, market share and many other vital business factors. They appear to get scant respect from others, including owners, management, dispatchers, specialist staff, enforcement people and even the public on the highways. They have little say in their own destiny and many are even denied the information needed to project their own income / revenues.We need a change in perspectives, a new 'deal' for drivers that recognizes them as the professionals they are. This should begin with full integration with the immediate team that's in direct support roles and whose livelihood depends on the contributions that drivers make. Drivers are people, not a resource, and they deserve the respect they're due.

The NYPD policy of Stop-and-Frisk has been the subject of countless news articles over the past few months and promises to be an important issue in the upcoming mayoral election. Today new evidence shows that the NYPD finds most of the guns outside of the areas where the most Stop-and-Frisks take place. This evidence further proves that Stop-and-Frisk is an ineffective method to policing and must be significantly reformed. Read More »

On Father's Day NYCC teamed up with the NYCLU, NAACP, SEIU 1199 and many other community organizations, clergy, workers, and residents to hold a silent march demanding reforms to the NYPD and their practice of Stop and Frisk. We need a police force that protects us and our communities, not a police force that treats us like targets! Read More »

Prometheus Trio concerts, at the intimate little concert hall of the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, have become endearingly homey.
Monday night, for example, pianist Stephanie Jacob sensed that someone late for the second half was stuck outside curtained glass door, the only entrance. She jumped up from the piano, opened the door, and ushered the embarrassed young fellow in. Before the intermission, upon completion of Martinu's Cinq pièces brèves (1930), Jacob shocked her husband, cellist Scott Tisdel, and violinist Timothy Klabunde by saying: "I just have to play that last one again. I just have to." To which the incredulous Tisdel exclaimed: "She's nuts!" Then they played it again, much to the amusement of the audience.
All this could be annoying, but isn't. The audience and performers know one another so well that everyone's in it together. And Jacob is so utterly ingenuous that you have to love her. The Prometheans play chamber music of the virtuoso variety, but it's still chamber music. You could play it in your living room. More and more, that's how these concerts feel. I like it.
Of course, none of that would matter if they didn't play well and put together interesting programs. Jacob, Klabunde and Tisdel do both. They have taken on the underrated Martinu as a special cause play him often. Monday they made a strong case for the Cing pièces brèves, a set of boisterous miniatures. Martinu couched his dense and nearly relentless counterpoint in raucously extended tonal harmony. Fierce syncopations yank the themes this way and that through the four fast movements, especially the finale, which sounds like a jazz band rehearsing on a bus as it careens down a pot-holed mountain road. No wonder Jacob wanted to play it twice.
They astutely observed and conveyed the humor in the outer movements Mozart's Trio in C, K. 548. They exaggerated the genteel bits and went a little nuts on the buffa stuff, which was very funny and just right for the first movement. In the finale, Mozart appears zeroed in on cadences but as often as not lands a step or two off. The players went suddenly soft in these oddball landings, to amusing effect, rather like the sensation of planting your foot on what turns out to be air instead of terra firma. The central cantabile came off as lyrical and supple in its line, noble in the steady tread of the tempo, and passionate in the aching throb of the string players' vibrato.
This especially venturesome program also included the single-movement Trio élégiaque, from Rachmaninoff's student days, and Anne Dudley's trio setting of the Chaconne from Bach's Partita No. 11 for solo violin. They added an arrangement of Brahms' Hungarian Dance in D minor as an encore.
Rachmaninoff's big, Romantic melodies sweep through a sprawling sonata form. The Prometheans phrased this juicy music generously, lavished rich, warm sound upon it, and got behind that certain sense of waves forming, building, cresting and crashing that is essential to this sort of Romantic music. (It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that… surge.)
In its pure form for solo violin, Bach's Chaconne is a lonely act of heroism, an attempt to wring multiple ongoing voices out of an instrument not really made for it. Much of the music is implicit or suggested. It is gripping in its austere, severe, even skeletal essence.
Dudley, with three instruments at hand, fully and expertly realized Bach's every suggestion. She put flesh on the bones, and the bones bear the weight well.
This program will be repeated in a matinee at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Dec. 77 at the conservatory, 1584 N. Prospect Ave. Call 414-276-5760 for ticket information.

I've been working with Ubuntu Touch recently, using VirtualBox to run
Ubuntu Saucy as a guest on my Mac, and while it does work to connect
to the device once it's installed, the process of reflashing is
difficult. The manual steps on the Ubuntu Wiki
Touch/Install page work for
the old way, via
phablet-flash cdimage-touch, with the caveat that
you may have to manually reboot the device and/or re-connect the USB
in between steps.
However, as of this email last week, the official way
to flash phones is using the system images via
ubuntu-system, which has a different set of files.
Instead of just muddling through and updating the manual instructions, I decided to see if phablet-flash would run natively on the Mac. After a bit of python dependency resolution, it does. Here's what I did:
- Download the Android SDK tools. You only really need the "SDK Tools", not the whole ADT Bundle, so I clicked on "Use an existing IDE" at the bottom of that page, to get the smaller installer.
- Unpack the archive and run ./android. Install the platform-tools (and nothing else).
Add the platform-tools/ directory to your $PATH for convenience.
(Optional) create a virtualenv for the python dependencies, and activate it.
pip installeach of
pyxdg, and
- get bazaar if you don't already have it.
- branch phablet-tools:
bzr branch lp:phablet-tools
cd phablet-tools && python setup.py build
- At this point,
phablet-flash ubuntu-systemshould work smoothly, with all transfers and reboots and timeouts going as expected.
The only minor hiccup is that it apparently doesn't get ~/Downloads/ from pyxdg, but it just means that you'll get the images saved to ~/phablet-flash instead of ~/Downloads/phablet-flash. No big deal.

Hi there, I was using my iPhone 3GS 32GB on tom tom maps when all of a sudden the phone froze then restarted saying unable to make or receive calls. No IMEI no ICCID.
It was running IOS 4.01 jailbreak me unlocked with baseband 5.12
This was the first time this has happened, so I went home and tried to do a restore (manually backing up everything first)
I first tried 4.01 with no luck, phone froze with spinning wheel.
Then i tried Snowbreeze 4.3.3 which was hacked to not update the baseband. It got to 99% then gave an error
I then tried 4.3.5 official and it gave a 1002, pinging baseband no reply (as it was trying to update baseband i guess?)
Last night I put the phone in the freezer for 30mins and tried a restore which made further progress with:
1: 4.3.3 snowbreeze (no baseband update) this is first log i beleive which gives error 37???
2: 4.01 offical which gives error 1002
Can you please check out the logs and let me know what is wrong, where to look first and how to repair this. I am certain this is hardware.
Kind regards
P.S I have the SHSH for 4.1, 4.3.5 5x
I could always restore to 4.01 before though, maybe when i pointed the server to cydia in the hosts file?
Perhaps this is my error 37 problem with 4.3.3 i should try 4.3.5 but i need to be able to jailbreak 4.3.5 with no BB update

Potlatch Seasoning
- Free Shipping
- Exclusive
- Summary
In the Pacific Northwest, coastal Native American tribes regarded salmon as a culinary cornerstone of the potlatch—a lavish ceremonial feast. For centuries, cooks would catch salmon at the mouths of rivers, where the freshwater streams met the sea. They'd season the fillets with wild herbs, then grill the fish over a crackling driftwood fire on the beach. With our classic blend, we've made it easy to recreate these rich, smoky flavors at home.
- 3-oz. tin.
- Made in USA.
- A Williams-Sonoma exclusive.
- Use & Care
- Rub 2 tsp. potlatch seasoning into 1-lb. salmon fillets before grilling or baking. It's also delicious rubbed into steaks or blended with safflower oil and used to baste chicken or turkey.
- Ingredients
- Kosher salt, paprika, crushed red pepper, chili pepper, oregano, basil, coriander, safflower oil.

CYCystatin-like domain
|SMART accession number:
|Cystatins are a family of cysteine protease inhibitors that occur mainly as single domain proteins. However some extracellular proteins such as kininogen, His-rich glycoprotein and fetuin also contain these domains.
|Interpro abstract (IPR000010):
Peptide proteinase inhibitors can be found as single domain proteins or as single or multiple domains within proteins; these are referred to as either simple or compound inhibitors, respectively. In many cases they are synthesised as part of a larger precursor protein, either as a prepropeptide or as an N-terminal domain associated with an inactive peptidase or zymogen. This domain prevents access of the substrate to the active site. Removal of the N-terminal inhibitor domain either by interaction with a second peptidase or by autocatalytic cleavage activates the zymogen. Other inhibitors interact direct with proteinases using a simple noncovalent lock and key mechanism; while yet others use a conformational change-based trapping mechanism that depends on their structural and thermodynamic properties.
The cystatins are cysteine proteinase inhibitors belonging to MEROPS inhibitor family I25, clan IH [(PUBMED:2107324), (PUBMED:14587292), (PUBMED:1855589)]. They mainly inhibit peptidases belonging to peptidase families C1 (papain family) and C13 (legumain family). The cystatin family includes:
All true cystatins inhibit cysteine peptidases of the papain family (MEROPS peptidase family C1), and some also inhibit legumain family enzymes (MEROPS peptidase family C13). These peptidases play key roles in physiological processes, such as intracellular protein degradation (cathepsins B, H and L), are pivotal in the remodelling of bone (cathepsin K), and may be important in the control of antigen presentation (cathepsin S, mammalian legumain). Moreover, the activities of such peptidases are increased in pathophysiological conditions, such as cancer metastasis and inflammation. Additionally, such peptidases are essential for several pathogenic parasites and bacteria. Thus in animals cystatins not only have capacity to regulate normal body processes and perhaps cause disease when down-regulated, but in other organisms may also participate in defence against biotic and abiotic stress.
|GO function:
|cysteine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity (GO:0004869)

There are 1112 CY domains in 879 proteins in SMART's nrdb database.

Escaping Nazi Germany on the kindertransport changes one girl's life forever
At the start of World War II, ten-year-old Franziska Mangold is torn from her family when she boards the kindertransport in Berlin, the train that secretly took nearly 10,000 children out of Nazi territory to safety in England. Taken in by strangers who soon become more like family than her real parents, Frances (as she is now known) courageously pieces together a new life for herself because she doesn't know when or if she'll see her true family again. Against the backdrop of war-torn London, Frances struggles with questions of identity, family, and love, and these experiences shape her into a dauntless, charming young woman.
Originally published in Germany, Anne Voorhoeve's award-winning novel is filled with humor, danger, and romance.

Entertain and stimulate baby with vibrant coloured exotic characters, without having to step foot into a zoo! Think - 'Zoo', but zanier!
The Zany Zoo Activity Doofy Dog is a fun character with lots of features to help your children's development. Soft teethers on his floppy ears, a ball to roll with beads and rattle to help develop hand eye co-ordination. Doofy Dogs also has lots of different fabric textures along with a mirror and squeaker.
We have a pet dog and thought it would be fun for my 4 month old to have her own doggie. She loves it hanging from her buggy hood and finds the ears especially easy to grab. Think this may become the toy in which case I will get a spare.
Great for my teething 5 month old,
great toy with lots going on to keep tiny minds busy!
I really would recommend this product to everyone who has got an infant.It is a great toy, fun and colourful which attracts the eye of your special baby.

Brownie Pudding - sounds like a recipe I used to make when young and growing up on the farm. You pour water over the dry ingredients in a cake pan, and it bakes up with cake on top and pudding on the bottom. Really good when eaten hot with real whipped cream or ice cream melting on top.

Gonzalo Higuaín
- Squad No: 9
- Position: Forward
- Age: 26
- Birth Date: Dec 10, 1987
- Birth Place: Brest, France
- Height: 6' 0" (1.83m)
- Weight: 79 kg
2013/14 Italian Serie A
His father, Jorge, was a fierce defender who played for some of the greatest clubs in Argentina, but Gonzalo has surpassed his achievements to become one of the most dangerous strikers in the world.
Born in France when his father played for Stade Brest, Higuain emerged from the River Plate youth system and started to show his abilities as a striker from an early age. Milan, Lazio, Chelsea and Manchester United had all taken note of his scoring ability, but it was Real Madrid who made the best offer and signed the 19-year-old in 2007 for €13 million.
After early struggles to make his mark, Higuain won the league in his first season and then cemented his place and won another the following year. Netting 49 in 66 games over the next two seasons, he established himself as one of the best finishers around and spurned the overtures of France (he has duel French-Argentine nationality) to make his name as Argentina's premier marksman.
Strengths: He offers alternatives across the forward line, has great awareness in the box and always steps up when the team needs him.
Weaknesses: He can lack the ruthlessness that a world-class poacher must have.
Career high: Scored the winning goal in a match with Osasuna in the 2007-08 season to claim his second league title.
Career low: Humbled 4-0 by Germany in the 2010 World Cup quarter-finals, where he did not make an impact on the game.
Style: Strong, clever, fast, an expert finisher.
Quotes: "The truth is that I am happy, I can't measure this with words. I dreamed with this moment. I couldn't ask for more." Higuain on his first call-up to the national team.
Trivia: On December 3, 2006, Higuain faced his brother Federico for the first time. One was playing for River, the other one for Nueva Chicago. The duel was won by the eldest sibling as Chicago won 2-1 and Federico scored a goal.

Unhappy with John for making Jett feel unwelcome, Gina asks him to make more an effort. His solution is to get Jett to work at the Surf Club - for money, Gina hopes - but he's a stern taskmaster and Jett, in a foul mood, steals a wallet from a bag outside the club. Soon after, John busts him and Gina lays down the law - Jett needs to change his behaviour if he's to stay in their family.
With Lottie now staying there, Summer Bay is fast running out of space, prompting Ruby to suggest to Romeo that they move out together. Despite his concerns, Ruby refuses to agree that they'd be rushing into something. Meanwhile, with Indi giving him the cold shoulder, Romeo confronts her - and soon pieces together the fact that Ruby warned her off.
Meanwhile, Hayley hides her stash of cocaine from Liam, distracting him with a glass of wine. Amid fears that his drinking could lead to other things, Liam later uncovers the drugs in her drawer.

San Antonio nonprofit Merced Housing Texas has received a $200,000 grant to help low-income families in its housing developments and throughout the city.
For the next two years the group will receive $25,000 every quarter to help facilitate its programs. Merced operates nearly 1,700 units for low income people across the state in Corpus Christi, Fort Worth, San Antonio and other cities but are based here.
Monday, April 8th and Tuesday, April 9th mark the twenty-first annual Jazz Meets Classical concerts of Musical Offerings. The performances include traditional classical composers and jazz, and often mix the two genres! This year the theme includes tributes to the great composer and performer Dave Brubeck, who passed last December.
The Greater Edwards Aquifer Alliance has released its legislative agenda for the 83rd session of the Texas Legislature, throwing its support behind 38 bills that promote water conservation and water quality, call for better funding of state parks, and improve coordination between various agencies dealing with water.
GEAA Executive Director Annalisa Peace said the broad support from the alliance indicates that legislators are thinking creatively and responsibly about Texas' water problems.
Trafficking is a multi-billion dollar enterprise in the United states, and Texas is a main transportation area. A 2007 study showed that one in five trafficked persons came through Texas.
Awareness is key to action, and despite new awareness efforts, many still don't know what trafficking looks like, what the indicators are, and how women find themselves in these situations.
Policies and curriculum development have been underway for weeks. But for first time, the board members of San Antonio's new early education measure, called Pre-K 4 SA, got to see some tangible proof their work is in motion.
Board member Bob Bevard, an appointee of District 8 Councilman Reed Williams, strolled through the northwest side model education center, a former Southwest Airlines calling center, on Tuesday and said, "This is cool."
The San Antonio Association of Hispanic Journalists continues to grow its scholarship fund and has, for the second year in a row, passed a benchmark in providing funding to college students.
Each year the San Antonio chapter strives to bring more deserving students into the profession. Communications Officer Javier Flores said that last year the organization was able to award $25,000 for the first time in its history.
It's Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! like you've never seen it before! Because, well, normally you can't see it -- it's a radio show.
Jeffrey Biegel talks about his upcoming recital at the First Unitarian Universalist Church this Saturday. While the topics all had something to do with great music, some are a little off topic. Biegel first talks about his new passion, tweeting; @tprclassical subscribes to his tweets and he certainly has a lot to say - as do those that follow his remarks.
A singular honor
San Antonio's Síclovía is back in action on Sunday and invites people to "come play in the street." On Sunday, Broadway Street will be closed to cars and trucks between Lion's Field and Alamo Plaza.
The idea for the event originates 30 years ago in Bogota, Colombia, a city growing in fame for its efforts to cut down on pollution and get residents more active."You can skate, walk, run, ride, [it] doesn't make any difference. Just come out and enjoy yourself," said Geoffrey Crabtree, the acting chairman of the YMCA board.
A Texas Department of Transportation study shows that portions of IH-35 in Bexar County rank 35th out of 100 roads in the state that are the most congested. A portion of IH-35 in Dallas ranks 9th most congested.
Combine that type of congestion with the number of people steadily moving to Texas, and a real transportation nightmare could be in store.
