The storefronts on Washington Avenue, between Harbor Drive and Third Street, will be transformed from 2-4 p.m.
"It's a fun way to get people outside in cold weather and enjoy their downtown in the winter," said Allison Revell, marketing and promotion coordinator for the Grand Haven Main Street Downtown Development Authority.
Joy Gaasch, president of the local Chamber of Commerce, commended the DDA and volunteers for the hours they put into the event. She said such special events drawing people to the business district provide a unique experience, which she said is an activity that's lost in a lot of downtowns.
"That really sets the downtown apart from a lot of other shopping experiences," Gaasch said.
Participants can fill out a form identifying the TV shows with stores, as well as cast ballots for the "best window" for the People's Choice Award. A group of judges will also award a store for their favorite window.
Viewers can win prizes by submitting a completed form by 4 p.m. Saturday at the Masonic Lodge, 344 Fulton Ave. in Grand Haven. The drawing for prizes will begin at about 4:30 p.m., and participants must be present to win.
Last year's Frozen in Time drew about 800 people to the downtown as models brought movie scenes to life. Revell said they anticipate that big of a crowd will also attend this year's event.
While some storefronts will have motionless models, others are planning to engage with visitors through interactive components, Revell said.
Although snow and chilly temperatures are in Saturday's forecast, Revell said the downtown snowmelt system will help make the sidewalks maneuverable for visitors to participate in the event.

A recent report revealed that many California community college students take twice as long to get an associate's degree as is normally required. While community college is less expensive than attending a four-year institution, students who drag out their degree programs lose much of that savings in additional tuition, fees, textbooks, and lost wages. In this article, we examine the reasons why some students take so long to graduate.

Backstage at the Capital Jingle Bell Ball, The Wanted boys admitted band member Max was not dating Lindsay Lohan but said she was their "groupie".
The band described a "night out with Lindsay" as "always eventful" adding "she's great fun".
When asked if the actress had flown back to London with them, the singers said she had not but admitted they would not be surprised if they found her "hiding in a suitcase" later.
The band joked further about making up with One Direction after their recent twitter fight and sarcastically said they had apologised and "hugged" it out.

Event Details
You're the MILK to our COOKIES!
Over the new few weeks student callers will be reaching out to alumni on behalf of the Queens Fund.
I encourage you to ask about campus news and events, professors or life at Queens. By taking the time to speak with these students and share your Queens memories with them, you help them feel connected to the pride and tradition that has remained strong throughout Queens' 157-year history. Please be sure to ask your student caller about the path he or she plans to follow post-graduation. We know you will be proud of the many ways your alma mater has helped prepare these talented young men and women to meet - and make - the future.
As we work to maintain and enhance the quality educational environment you remember from your time on campus, I hope you will consider making a gift to the Queens Fund. If you would like to give before you receive a call, you may donate at www.queens.edu/give.
Queens students and alumni- they complement each other like milk and cookies! One tastes so much better with the other, and we hope that you will help make the Queens experience even sweeter for current and future students by supporting the Queens Fund.
Warm regards,
Jane Williams

Who doesn't love a good sandwich, but when you go to the store to pick up some bread do you know what they most nutritious kinds are?
Registered dietitian Laura Jeffers says any bread that is 100% whole grain or whole wheat is the healthiest kind of bread.
She says you need to read the labels carefully. "Made with whole grain" sounds healthy but they are not 100% whole grain. She also says there is one word you never want to hear when it comes to bead: enriched. That means the grain was broken down in some way and things were put back into the bread.

The Best Home Burglar Alarms
Door & Window Estimates, Customer Reviews, Profile Info & More!
Statistics show that burglars are much more likely to break into homes without home burglar alarms than those protected by comprehensive security systems. For many burglars, seeing a yard sign or window decal indicating your home has an alarm system monitored by a security company is enough to make them think twice before attempting to enter your home. When selecting the best burglar alarm for your home, it can be helpful to know a bit about each type of system available on the market. Home burglar alarms range from the incredibly simple door alarms to elaborate systems that include video surveillance equipment and CCTV. Some of the main components generally included in the best home burglar alarms are:
- Control panel and keypads
- Door and window sensors
- Motion detectors
- 24-hour monitoring
Control Panel and Keypads
The control panel ultimately serves as the "brain" of your alarm system and stores all the information for your alarm system. As the homeowner, you typically do not need to access the control panel regularly. However, an alarm technician needs to access this for maintenance and repair purposes. There are three main types of alarm system control panels:
- Hardwired
- Wireless
- Hybrid
Keypads are what enable you to interact with your security system, check system status, turn the system on and off, and program user codes. There are two main options for keypads: LED and LCD. LED uses LED lights to indicate open zones and system status, whereas LCD has a fixed-message keypad.
Door and Window Sensors
Door and window sensors are generally magnetic-sensitive switches that create contact when doors and windows are closed. When a burglar attempts to enter your home, he or she breaks this contact and sets off the alarm system. Most door and window sensors can be installed into the frame of the door or window to make them less conspicuous.
Motion Detectors
Most motion detectors use Passive Infrared (PIR) detection to sense the presence of a burglar in your home. You can mount most motion detectors on a wall, in the corner of a room, or on the ceiling. Depending on your specific needs, there are three levels of sensor coverage: long-range, mid-range, and short-range. Motion detectors are available in several styles and with specific options. For example, some motion detectors are designed for homeowners who have pets roaming the house. In addition, others use dual technology such as PIR with microwaves that are useful for environments such as a garage, warehouse, or storage building.
24-Hour Monitoring
The best home burglar alarms also include 24-hour monitoring that enables a security company to keep watch on your home at all times. If a burglar attempts to enter your home unauthorized, your alarm system notifies authorities immediately. In addition, 24-hour monitoring also enables your security system to notify the monitoring center in case of an emergency that requires an ambulance.
While knowing a bit about your many options regarding the best home burglar alarms for your specific needs can help you in your decision, it is also a good idea to consult with a professional security company. They can more accurately identify the best system for your home.

Finally a Clear Explanation of Bike Sizing
How sizing is done between the different types of bikes is one of the great mysteries of the world. We can put somebody on the moon and have Facetime conversations with people living on the other side of the globe, but somehow can't standardize how bikes are measured.
Here's an example of the nuttiness. I ride a 62 cm road bike but have a mountain bike with an XL frame My other bikes include a 21-inch hybrid, a 64 cm touring bike and I have a BMX bike with 20 inch wheels. Other adults have 26-inch bicycles, and 29ers have been displaced by 27.5 bikes, which are now all the rage in the mountain bike scene. What in the world does all this mean?

Sample Recipes from Racing Weight Cookbook
Recently we reviewed Racing Weight Cookbook - Lean Light Recipes for Athletes. It offers a variety of healthy recipes intended to be a fit for all levels of comfort in the kitchen: those who hate cooking and/or have never spent any time with a spatula in hand; a mid-level collection of recipes aimed at those who have basic cooking skills and can tolerate time in the kitchen; and a third level of recipes for those athletes who love to cook and are fully comfortable in the kitchen.
The publishers allowed us to post three recipes from the book, including one from each category. Check them out here: Five-Minute Burrito; the Greek Tortilla Pizza and Banana Pecan Pancakes.

A Guide to Lights on Your Bike: How to See and Be Seen
Summer and warmer weather coming means that there are more opportunities for being out riding at night. But a little caution is probably warranted because if you look at the statistics about when bicycle/vehicle collisions occur, anywhere from 40%-60% of injuries and fatalities happen during the hours of darkness, despite the fact that a much smaller percentage of cycling actually takes place then.
I suppose you could promise yourself that you'll only ride during daylight hours. But the fact is, for many bike commuters, riding in darkness is a fact of life, particularly during the winter when the daylight hours are so much shorter. Plus, you'd also miss out on a lot of fun riding opportunties, whether that is for mountain biking at night or another crazy and fun bike event. So, check out this article, where we look at how you can light yourself up in a way that is both effective and fairly easy on your pocketbook.

What to Do When You Encounter a Dog on Your Bike
I was riding with some buddies not long ago out in the country. We passed a house and suddenly a dog shot out from the yard and approached us on the road. The two lead cyclists passed him quickly but the dog bit our third guy on the ankle.
Unfortunately this is a too-common experience. If you ride much at all, especially out semi-suburban or rural areas, you will likely encounter dogs along the way. But what to do? There are evasive manuevers to consider as well as proactive defensive actions you can take to help avoid bites or crashing. Here are some tips on how to react if you encounter a dog while on your bike.

Getting serious about fitness means paying attention to your diet.

Eliminate Common Roadblocks to Weight Loss
Some cyclists are willing to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on advanced technology and materials to make their bikes lighter. However in my own case, let's just put it this way: I can tell by looking at myself in the mirror that the weight of my bike just ain't the problem. And the easiest way to go faster or climb easier is not to spend $300 on a titanium seat post just to shave 12 grams. Taking an inch off my waistline will be a whole lot more effective and less expensive at the same time.
And when you are ready to get to your optimal body weight, there are two ways to do so: increasing your physical activity and making changes to your diet. Here are some common roadblocks people face when considering how to improve what they eat.

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department is threatening to withhold millions of dollars in federal aid to local police departments unless they adopt policies that require uniformed officers to wear body armor.
The requirement, which takes effect this month as local agencies apply for as much as $37 million in federal aid to purchase bullet-resistant vests, comes in the wake of a recent surge in fatal shootings of police officers.

We love our tees and hoodies so much we could talk about them all day, but that'd be a bit weird. So we'll just say that we're immensely proud of the quality of all our garments and the super futuristic technology that creates our unique t-shirts and hoodie prints. Our t-shirts are long lasting, individual and extremely useful for abiding by public decency laws.
We advise you cold wash your garments and hang them out to dry. It'll keep them super soft, looking their best and it's even good for the environment.
Slim fit, order a size up if you'd like it less fitting. If you like your hoodies baggy, go two sizes up.

For $300, no other phone comes close to what the OnePlus One offers. Not only does it look and feel like a premium device, but it also comes with specs similar to what you'd find in a flagship smartphone. If you're keeping costs down, look no further.Read the full review →
A $300 smartphone has never looked so good
It doesn't make sense that the OnePlus One should be this inexpensive. It looks elegant, feels solid and performs smoothly, and it doesn't show any signs that it's a first-generation product from an unknown company. Regardless of how well it sells, the industry will see this as a benchmark for what an affordable phone really can be. All told, it outperforms Google's Nexus 5 in nearly every way -- and it does so at an even lower price. Heck, it's better than many flagship phones that sell for twice as much.
The OnePlus One gets close to the perfection it's aspiring for, but it's not for everyone. Many will despise its large form factor, non-removable battery and lack of external storage. To a nitpicky reviewer, a truly perfect device would also include wireless charging and some type of waterproofing. But let's be real: It just isn't going to happen in a $299 device, especially one that's already filled to the brim with flagship features.
Here's the thing: The One doesn't have to be perfect for us to recommend it. A few missing features? Sure, no problem. What matters is that it's perfect for you, and it fits all of your needs. Besides, imperfections make us eager to see what's around the corner. In the meantime, we keep dreaming of perfection, and perhaps one day we'll actually find it.

With an unbeatable price and power to spare, the OnePlus One is an Android revelation that challenges expectations for affordable smartphones.Read the full review →
With a starting price of just $299, this unlocked, Cyanogen-powered phone beats the bigger brands at their own game.Read the full review →
For now it's an awesome oddity that will take some connections and/or dumb luck to get your hands on. But if you get the chance, take it.Read the full review →
Its flaws are small things, details that fail by matters of degrees rather than huge margins, and for a smartphone that costs less than half of many of its competitors, that's nothing short of amazing.Read the full review →
Given its blistering performance, the OnePlus One is a phenomenal deal for a high-end smartphone, as long as it's compatible with your network and you're happy to compromise on customer support and slightly sketchy software.Read the full review →
OnePlus hasn't just rocked the boat with the One, it's good enough to see some competitors fly from its wake and crash into the rocks. If the One retailed for £450 with a more recognisable brand name stamped onto its rear then it would be snapped up from the shelves.Read the full review →
It's no surprise that a product from a brand new company is having distribution issue. What is surprising is just how much OnePlus was able to get right.Read the full review →
With the performance aspect, the above average camera quality, and Cyanogen in its corner, the price you pay for such a powerful package seems way too good to be true.Read the full review →
In the $299 unlocked price bracket, The OnePlus One is crushing pretty much everything around it.Read the full review →
The OnePlus One offers Samsung Galaxy S5 performance for less than half the price. If that doesn't make it attractive it also has a customisable OS and a 1080p display. There are a few downsides, but overall the OnePlus One is amazing value for moneyRead the full review →
The OnePlus One is not the perfect, everything-to-everyone phone that its creators might like you to think it is. But it is an amazingly powerful and versatile device, even before you consider its staggeringly low price.Read the full review →
First Looks
The external design of the phone is just as nice. In fact, the One is built by CEO Pete Lau's former company, Oppo, so you'll spot some similarities in terms of build quality, appearance (the back reminds us of the Find 5) and ergonomics.Read the full preview →
As cheesy as the name sounds (and confusing, if you were to start referring it as just the One), this 5.5-inch quad-core smartphone is actually pretty good. I've been using an early model that's very similar to the final product, bar some slight cosmetic alterations, and I must say I'm impressed.Read the full preview →
OnePlus is a brand-new phone maker with zero track record, although it was founded by a guy from Oppo, which is known for quality electronics. If OnePlus can build sufficient units, keep product quality up, and squash all the bugs, this phone could be a real game changer.Read the full preview →
OnePlus' Oppo heritage is clearly visible in the One. The design looks identical to the Oppo Find 5—which consequently causes a problem with the navigation button layout. OnePlus gives you the option of capacitive or on-screen buttons, but neither choice is ideal.Read the full preview →
With impressive specs, a fluid Android interface and a price tag which quite simply blows the competition out of the water the OnePlus One is the most surprising smartphone so far this year.Read the full preview →
OnePlus made a lot of lofty promises for its flagship smartphone, and the company has definitely delivered. Just the amazing price point of the device is more than enough to forgive any of its shortcomings, but luckily, there aren't any major flaws with the OnePlus One.Read the full preview →
The phone looks and feels great, and for once it seems the press images didn't have our expectations set too high for the quality of the phone when it's actually in our hands. The solid back cover — rightfully adorned with "Cyanogen" branding — tapers off to the edges perfectly.Read the full preview →
The device is everything we thought it'd be at first glance. Fast. Powerful. Beautiful. Sleek. Slick. Big. REAL big.Read the full preview →
The phone will offer some unique software features as well, including always-on voice commands and support for gestures shortcuts which will let users simply draw a pre-set gesture on the turned off screen to launch a certain app.Read the full preview →
The design of the device is a bit plain, but inoffensive. It looks a lot like any number of Oppo devices in recent years, though this one has that snazzy new Cyanogen logo.Read the full preview →
From the brief amount of time I have spent with the device, I am somewhat saddened to say that the phone is just a tad too big for my tastes. It is much larger than the G2, Moto X, and Nexus 5, and is more along the lines of the Galaxy Note 3 and Note 2.Read the full preview →
I have to say I was extremely lucky to get an invite to buy this phone! After my first full week of use, I almost forgot how little I paid for the phone.

My wife and I went to this shop in June 2014.
Great selection, excellent people.
One piece was broken on the ship back to USA. No problem, a replacement was on the way in a week.
I visited Ceramiche d'Arte Carmela in Ravello back in April during our visit to Italy to see friends. I purchased a few things while there, and ordered a few pieces of their red peacock patterned plates. I worked with Roberta by email and ordered the plates I wanted. They just arrived and are beautiful...just like I remembered them looking in...
My wife and I visited Ravello in 2010 and purchased several pieces of pottery at this shop. They had a wonderful selection and we had great service. We had everything shipped to the US and it all arrived perfectly. Unfortunately I recently broke one of the pieces and wanted to get a replacement. Upon contacting Roberta via email she was...
We adore Carmello and Alfonso. Their pottery shop has the widest variety and the best prices in Ravello. We bought six place settings from them two summers ago, and since have ordered more via email. What we bought from Ceramiche d'Arte Carmela arrives looking exactly like the pieces on the floor. That is not always true from other vendors, whose...
A wide selection and excellent service. We have bought many things over the years. Items chosen have always arrived unscathed and Carmela and her husband Alfonso are a pleasure to do business with.
Wonderful selection of Deruta ceramics and a very knowledgable owner. Our purchases arrived safely back in USA as planned.
A friend recommended this shop and I'm glad they did! The ceramics are beautiful! There are many colors, shapes, and styles of ceramics. I was treated with a good deal of kindness and respect - their customer service is great. It was hard to pick what I wanted since there are so many beautiful things. I bought some dinner ware,...
My husband and I have bought ceramics from this beautiful shop on 2 of our visits to Italy. We have bought numerous pieces including a dinner setting for 8 people,platters,salad bowls and fruit bowl, jugs and even outdoor ornaments. The shop and their ceramics is divine and the service is fantastic. We have had it shipped back to Australia on...
I drooled the whole time I spent here: fabulous designs and colors to tempt the buyer -- and they ship to the U.S. Since Ravello is such a memorable town, this is the place to buy a souvenir to bring back memories of the town, its people and its treasures.
I was in Ravello two years ago, at that time I purchased pottery to be shipped home to the US. I have enjoyed it every since. Just recently, I emailed Roberta about getting some more pieces. She emailed me pictures of the pieces I was inquiring about within days. After we had the entire transaction settled, I could not believe...

Clint replies, "I'll see if I can track her down," and hangs up the phone. Then he rolls over in bed and is like, "Hey Nat, get up, they need us."

When Pool Services Technologies debuted its Puripool system five years ago, it was a little-known novelty catering to the most eco-conscious of homeowners and commercial pool operators who can't stand the sight of water going to waste.
Today, the San Marcos, Calif.-based company is doing more than just recycling pool water. In the past year, it launched a dealership program for its proprietary technology. Last month, it found its first buyer.
Weber Pools in the Dallas/Fort Worth area will offer the Puripool service, said owner James Calkins. You'd better believe he did some serious market research before shelling out $100,000 for the mobile filtration unit.
In an area where water is heavy with calcium, pools are refreshed on a semiannual basis to prevent stains. Calkins found that most of his customers would be willing to shell out a few extra bucks if it meant saving thousands of gallons of water.
There's also an unrelenting drought throughout much of the Lone Star State.
"This area is growing by leaps and bounds with no way to grow the water supply very quickly," Calkins said. "We figured it's probably about time to start thinking about this and went ahead and pulled trigger on it."
Weber Pools' 20-foot Puripool trailer houses a generator, filters, injection tanks, ultraviolet rays and industrial-sized membranes resembling tightly coiled rolls of paper towels through which water can return to its purest state. Dirty water comes in, clean water goes out. The pool is never drained empty. In fact, you still swim while the water is being processed. That will be a major selling point for Calkins' commercial clients.
"The biggest thing for commercial pools is that they can stay open," Calkins said. "There's no downtime."
The system can process 40,000 gallons in about a day, ridding the water of cyanuric acid, total dissolved solids, calcium, phosphates and nitrates among other unwanted elements, all while retaining about 85 percent of the vessel's existing water volume.
"It's amazing to see how much stuff is filtered out of the water," said Kevin Calkins. James Calkins' son serves as Weber Pools' operations manager. He's tackled some pretty filthy pools and has been surprised by the results.
"You can literally see the difference in the water quality when the process is done," Kevin Calkins added.
Weber Pools will be hyping the environmental benefits of the Puripool system at an upcoming Earth Day fair, where the system will be on display. He'll also be reaching out to other industry professionals, offering the service to them at a discount, so they could in turn sell their customers on recycled water.
Meanwhile, Pool Service Technologies is continuing to explore ways to make the system more efficient. It recently developed a smaller model capable of treating about 20,000 gallons of water a day, making it ideal for residential pools, said Bruce Wettstein, company president. He'd also like to make the filtration system more compact to fit in a smaller trailer for towing ease.
Another potential advancement has nothing to do with mobility. Wettstein said he sees an opportunity developing a stationary model for permanent use at resorts where heavy-use pools are frequently drained. "We're happy with what we're doing, but we've got to keep moving forward," he said.

If you liked the Metal Melter you saw in a previous project, here's how you can make your own!
Step 1: Find an Old Microwave
You can find them in various places, like on free classified adds, or in your neighbors garbage can, like where I found this one.
Step 2: Harvest The Transformer
CAUTION: Make sure you're familiar with the dangers of opening a microwave, because there are components inside that may still carry a charge and could hurt, or even kill you. Even if the microwave isn't plugged in.
The transformer core is only held together by 2 very thin welds, as seen on the side of this one.
A hacksaw, or angle grinder can be used to cut the weld, then a hammer and chisel used to break it open, giving you access to the primary and secondary coils.
Be very careful taking the primary coil out because you'll need it again. Make sure not to bend, break or scratch it in any way.
NOTE: The secondary coil is harder to get out, and may be damaged by the time you do, but that's ok because we don't need it for this project. However, if you can salvage it intact, it may be a source of thin gauge enameled copper wire for future projects.
My son made this and it makes a loud humming noise that is scary! Is it supposed to do that?
hey! i just took the primary coil out of my transformer and scratched it a bit ( it was glued in pretty strong) and some of the paper wraping ripped a bit. i was wondering if i just needed to get another transformer or if it would work just the same?
I just finished mine!!!!! Moving on to the spot welder!!
Oh your Majesty, King of the Random, i have a question: i need a 6V DC transformer that puts out at least 1360mA. I didn't feel like looking all over for it, so i looked around what I had, and found a 300mA 6V DC transformer. Is there any way to modify it and make it put out 1.36A or more ?
Also, the #4 wire allows me to wind anywhere from 1 to 2.5 coils on the secondary WITHOUT disassembly! It nicely just scoots through the slots. If I have something a little higher resistance, I just increase the output voltage by winding another loop!
I love your videos! I think I'm gonna have to go get a projection TV now too...
(i speak from experience), also it may melt the insulation.
25 years ago I designed servo controlled welding systems for defence contractors.
The resistance of the body changes constantly, and depends on moisture and many other things, however I usually measure in the multi mega-ohm range, which puts the current (if any) in the less than 1 micro-amp range. It would take 100 Milli-amps to stop my heart .. and that's about a hundred thousand times more current than what would be flowing through me.
However, metal is millions times more conductive than me so can allow the full potential of the current to flow .. so in that case we can have around 800 amps flowing through the metal.
Does that make sense?
You are correct though in that it's the resistance of the human body that keeps us from getting the shock. It is what requires the voltage to be so high.
BTW, Im the one on you tube this AM with the bottle cap shooter...lol
the secondary is very thin wire whereas the primary is thicker
The secondary has one wire output and the other end is grounded to the transformer
The primary coil has two spad connectors
The secondary is mostly wrapped in paper and the primary is mostly bare

When customers walk through the door of Hardee's in Boiling Springs on Monday nights, they'll find more than a burger or soda on the menu to fill them up. In addition to a combo, requests were made for gospel songs to fill hearts and souls.
"I just, I love the gospel music," Bobbie Mintz said. "The words to the song means so much to me."
O'Neal Mintz is her husband and a Spartanburg County councilman.
"I served this country for the right to pray," O'Neal Mintz said.
And he's known for supporting prayers during council meetings.
"I feel like it should be everywhere. This country was founded on one God and that's the living God," O'Neal Mintz said.
Back in 2010, members with the group Freedom From Religion Foundation wrote a letter of complaint to Spartanburg County Council that prayers to Jesus Christ are unconstitutional and a violation of separation of church and state. However, on Monday, in another case in the town of Greece, NY, the U.S. Supreme Court backed Christian prayers during government meetings.
"They finally got something right," O'Neal Mintz said.
However, not everyone thinks so.
"They said it's OK for the government to show preference for the dominant religion in the area," Annie Laurie Gaylor said.
She's the co-founder of the group Freedom From Religion Foundation.
"We may go into state court in some states to stop sectarian prayer," Gaylor said.
But for O'Neal Mintz, the U.S. Supreme Court ruling, like his Bible and his singing, is the gospel.
"For the Supreme Court, for the four that didn't rule on this they can find their answer right here if they just look for it," O'Neal Mintz said.
Even though the Supreme Court voted to back Christian prayers, the ruling also states it would be unconstitutional for a prayer to intimidate or try to convert non-believers. The Spartanburg County Council chairman said the council will keep their current prayer policy in place.

Coachella Valley and Music Arts Festival
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2014 is undeniably one of the most popular summer festivals. Coachella has sold out within a matter of days in previous years, and tickets are going shockingly faster for arguably one of its best line-ups in a decade. Coachella also manages to blend together the top acts in the industry with some notable hidden gems. A lot of these indie bands end up breaking through the mainstream in the year following Coachella. Hip hop fans will likely remember the huge buzz garnered by hip hop collective odd Future following their charismatic and wild Coachella performance. Coachella is like a rite of passage. It is something that all the best bands get involved with at some point in their career.
The festival brought out nearly 200 bands for 2014. Some of the headlining artists include the 80s eccentric pop group, the Pet Shop Boys. Chromeo is contributing in the area of electronic music, as well as Foster the People and Girl Talk. The latter's blend of instrumentals and samples makes for an endearing dance show that gathers a huge crowd. Indie giants, such as MGMT, Queens of the Stone Age, and the Pixies performed this year. An 'indie giant" may seem like a bit of an oxymoron, but for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2014 it fits. This is because the festival always focused on the biggest acts that were not necessarily cultural phenomenon's. Sure, they throw in a Pearl Jam and Justin Beiber here and there (not trying to compare the two) but they also have plenty of other acts that are not nearly as popular.
Coachella was another success for 2014, and remains the leading giant of summer festivals. it just passed us by, but already news is leaking about the line-up of 2015. This is only what is expected for an event as massive as Coachella.

ASIA/HOLY LAND – The Christians of Jerusalem write to the Nuncio: we want to see Pope Francis and Patriarch Bartholomew
Jerusalem (Agenzia Fides) - "On the eve of the visit to Jerusalem by His Holiness Pope Francis, and his meeting with His Holiness Bartholomew I, we seek our legitimate right to greet our spiritual leaders". This is what is said in a letter sent by a group of Christians in Jerusalem to Archbishop Giuseppe Lazzarotto, Apostolic Delegate in Jerusalem and Palestine, just days before the Pope's pilgrimage to the Holy City. The initiative was launched by some Catholics of the Latin parish of St. Saviour in the Old Town. "But our considerations are the expectations of all the Christians in Jerusalem" refers to Fides Agency Hania Kassissieh, Orthodox Christian married to a Catholic of the Latin Rite, who helped to write the letter.
"We" reads the letter, "are aware that the Holy Mass will be held in Bethlehem for the Palestinian faithful, yet we believe that as the indigenous Jerusalem population and descendants of the first Christians, meeting our fathers will be hindered in Jerusalem. We see attempts by the Israeli occupation to impose a curfew on the streets including the Christian Quarter during the visit. The curfew is yet another attempt by the occupying power to deny our existence. It is unacceptable for the Pope to pass along the narrow streets of the Christian quarter, yet find devoid of any signs of life and the faithful. As local church communities", reads the message "we are the hosts of the Holy Fathers in our city. We do not want to be excluded from a historic religious event, and want to offer our good will and cooperation towards the visit's success". (GV) (Agenzia Fides 15/05/2014)
