I loved this theme, it's so cute & gender neutral. I've been dressing my son up like a sock monkey since he was born so this just seemed to fit. I wish I could have gotten more of the decorations in the photo but trust me, it's definitely worth it.

Title: More Fun than a Barrel of Monkeys!
Date: Nov 17, 2011
I've always been a "do it yourself" kinda girl. When I had my oldest he was born during the summer and I have been able to make home made invitations and choose from a wide variety of themes, but my youngest was born VERY close to Christmas and I was having a difficult time coming up with a theme that was distinct, masculine, and wasn't something that lacked origionality. Also inbetween working full time, preparing for holiday activities, etc. I didn't have the same amount of time to dedicate to my youngest birthday. I found the most ADORABLE 1st birthday theme which is the sock monkey. I love the colors, theme, everything! I even took one of t he invitations into the baker and requested that she mimic the look on the invite for the cake. The party pack had every thing you need. I ordered some additional balloons and such. No complaints what -so-ever! Thank you CelebrationExpress!

At Amtrak, we respect your privacy and value the trust and confidence you place in us. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy while you're using Amtrak.com; m.Amtrak.com; Amtrak applications for iPhone, Android, or Windows Phone; Amtrak.com/Whistle-Stop; or AmtrakGuestRewards.com (referred to individually as "Site" or collectively as "Sites"). This privacy policy (referred to on this page as the "Policy") describes our commitment to your privacy. By using a Site, you acknowledge that you understand and expressly agree to this Policy.
When you use a Site, we may collect information about your visit to the Site, your usage of the Site, and information that you provide. This Policy describes:
Please note that this Policy only addresses Amtrak privacy practices concerning information we collect from one of the Sites, and not other sites, mobile applications, or other sources. This Policy does not apply to information that we may collect from any other source or from other Amtrak activities or programs.
Please carefully read this Policy before completing a User Profile on a Site and before enrolling in the Amtrak Guest Rewards program. If you also plan to enroll as a member in the Amtrak Guest Rewards program, please also carefully read Section 9 of this Policy, which contains special supplemental privacy practices and rules that apply to the personal information that you provide to us to become a member in the Amtrak Guest Rewards program.
Please note that this Policy may change without special notice to you. Please check back to review this Policy whenever you visit a Site as you will be deemed to have read, understood, received notice of, and agreed to any changes. This Policy supersedes all previous statements or policies concerning Amtrak's collection of personal information from a Site.
The date of the last update to this Policy is always indicated near the top of the page and any change in the date of this Policy since the last time you had visited a Site shall constitute notice to you that the Policy has changed since the last time you visited a Site. You may also see periodic statements displayed on a Site notifying you that our Policy has changed, especially in places where we collect personal information from you. The last update to this Policy shall also be its effective date.
We collect personal information in several ways from several different parts of the Sites. The information we collect includes two basic kinds: (1) information that can identify you as a specific individual, such as your name, telephone number or e-mail address, and (2) information that we use only as data in the aggregate. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13.
We ask for and collect personal information in the following circumstances:
When you register and create a User Profile, we ask for the following personal information:
We store this information in your User Profile which allows us to provide you with better service when you make reservations. We are able to pre-populate information for you during the reservations booking process, so you will not have to re-enter it each time you book a reservation.
We collect a certain amount of personal information about you (and, if necessary, your traveling companions) when you begin the reservation process and purchase tickets, whether you purchase tickets while logged in with a User Profile, or while not logged in (i.e., as a guest). We use this information to fulfill your booking requests. This information includes:
If you use a Site to purchase tickets for more than one person, we also ask for the name of each person traveling so that we may issue a ticket in each passenger's correct name. We do not use these names of other passengers for any other purpose. We may also ask for your telephone number so that we can contact you in the event that there is a major scheduling change or cancellation of your train.
In addition, when you purchase tickets while logged in to a Site with a User Profile, we also save information about your canceled reservations, if any. Also, if you choose, we can save trip information regarding trips that you have researched, but have not yet booked. You also have the option to view a list of confirmed reservations you made online, as well as any canceled trips.
We collect some personal information from you when you make purchases through our online store for the purpose of fulfilling your order. This information includes:
When you become a member of the Amtrak Guest Rewards program, we collect the following information about you:
We also request other information, which you may optionally provide, including:
When you request information, such as brochures, timetables and gift catalogs, we collect information from you that is necessary to fulfill our service obligations to you. This information may include your name, address and telephone number.
If you contact Amtrak through a Site, such as through our 'Contact Us' page, we may keep a record of that correspondence which includes your e-mail address and any other information you provide to us in your correspondence, such as your Amtrak Guest Rewards member account information.
When you submit a travel story for consideration for publishing on the Whistle Stop web site, we collect information:
We also request additional information pertaining to the travel story, which you may optionally provide, including:
If a child under the age of 13 is mentioned in a given travel story, Amtrak will only use his or her first name.
In the event a travel story submission contains information relating to the quality of a customer's travel experience, the submission may be forwarded to Amtrak Customer Service for review.

Each time you access an Amtrak mobile application we collect some information automatically about your use of the application.
Information collected about your usage and device is collected in the aggregate and can not be tied to a specific individual.
If an application has access to additional information on your phone, such as contacts or calendars, we do not automatically collect that information. This access is to allow you to interact with your information from within the Amtrak application.
We use the information that you provide or that we otherwise collect while you're using the site in the following ways:
We work with certain reputable independent contractors who perform certain tasks for us on a contract basis. These tasks and categories of contractors include storing and managing customer information and providing advice about and support for our products and services. By using these contractors, we can better offer you a variety of products and services. A partial list of the services we contract for includes the following:
In addition to our contractors, we also have relationships with certain trustworthy business partners of another category who would like you to be provided with information about their various products and services that we believe would be of interest to you. We share your personal information with these business partners.
If you make a request for information about, subscribe to or make an online purchase of, goods or services offered by one of our business partners on a Site, you are giving us your express permission to share your personal information with that business partner so that your request, subscription, or purchase can be fulfilled under that partner's own online privacy policies and practices. If you enter an Amtrak sweepstakes or contest, your personal information may be shared with the Amtrak business partners who are co-sponsors of the sweepstakes or contest and who are likely to have different privacy policies and practices than Amtrak.
If you are a California consumer, upon your request (see Section 8 of this Policy entitled "Contacting Us Regarding This Policy"), we will disclose to you what personal information of yours was shared with what third party business partners within the immediately preceding calendar year (including disclosing to you our partners' names and addresses) if such information was used by our partners for their marketing purposes.
We may disclose aggregated user statistics (for example, a statistic indicating that 45% of our users are female) to describe our services to prospective partners, advertisers, and other selected third parties, and for other lawful purposes.
We reserve the right to disclose personal information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating this Policy or who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) Amtrak's rights or property, other Amtrak users or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. We may disclose or access account information for administrative or other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain or improve our products, services or the operation of this site, for law enforcement purposes, or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

This Policy does not cover the privacy practices of any such other web sites, and we cannot accept responsibility or liability for the privacy practices of those other sites. Please refer to those sites' privacy policies for information about their practices.
When you join the Amtrak Guest Rewards program, you agree to allow Amtrak to share with participating business partners of the Amtrak Guest Rewards program your personal information for the purpose of providing you with information and promotions. Please refer to Section 9 of this Policy to learn about how the Amtrak Guest Rewards program uses your personal information.
Amtrak provides reservation and ticketing services for other carriers and travel-related service providers. By using a Site for reservation and/or ticketing for the products or services of another carrier or travel-related service provider, you expressly give permission to share your personal information with that carrier or service provider, who shall treat your personal information in accordance with its own privacy policies and practices. For information about the privacy policies and practices of another carrier or service provider, please contact that carrier or service provider directly.
When you make reservations, place orders, or access account information from a Site, we use SSL ("Secure Sockets Layer") encryption technology to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information and protect your credit card information as it travels over the Internet. Once we receive your credit card information, it is stored offline in our secure data center. We protect against unauthorized access all of the customer data we collect by means of firewalls and other security measures.
Your User Profile Information and Amtrak Guest Rewards membership account information (should you enroll in the Amtrak Guest Rewards program) are password-protected. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. Also remember to sign out of your Amtrak account and close your browser window or the mobile application when you have finished. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share a computer or mobile device with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet "cafe."
When you give Amtrak personal information, that information may be sent electronically to servers outside and separate from Amtrak and outside of the state where you originally entered the information. In addition, that information may be used, stored and processed outside of Amtrak and outside of the state where you entered that information. Whenever we handle personal information as described above, regardless of where this occurs, we take steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Amtrak.com, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. However, we cannot accept liability for disclosure of any personal information due to errors in transmission or unauthorized ads or errors and omissions of third parties.

Changes made in either your User Profile or Amtrak Guest Rewards membership account will not be reflected in the other account until you make such changes.
Please note that our contract service providers require a reasonable amount of time to update, correct or delete the information in accordance with your instructions.

Police: 'Where's Waldo Bandit' strikes again
Updated On: Aug 28 2013 06:21:18 AM EDT
A bank robber dubbed the "Where's Waldo Bandit" has struck again in Oregon.
Ryan Homsley, dubbed the "Where's Waldo Bandit" for his glasses and shirt resembling the children's book character, was released from prison last Tuesday for a bank robbery in 2010 is now wanted by police again in the robbery of a Portland bank, KPTV reported.
Police believe he robbed a U.S. Bank in Portland on Monday afternoon, handing a bank employee a note demanding money on Monday afternoon.
According to police, he made off with an undisclosed amount of cash and fled on foot.
Homsley, 32, was arrested at a hospital in September 2010 after robbing a Key Bank in Tualatin. In that case, investigators said he claimed to have a bomb and left a small box and a backpack behind as he left the scene. Neither item contained explosives.
Homsley pleaded guilty to bank robbery charges in March 2012.
He was sentenced to 40 months in prison, but was granted early release with three years post-prison supervision.

Are competitors threatening to take over your client base? Have you decided it's high time to take drastic action? Combat those vultures by rewarding your customers well and rewarding them quickly!
Experienced professionals go through desktop necessities faster than you can say "PC Load Letter," so capitalize on that work ethic by taking a closer look at the promo options in our custom office items category! Unique workplace products await you on every new page...
It just wouldn't be an office items category without the staples like personalized notebooks, elegant padfolios, or custom dry erase boards, but the fun doesn't have to stop there. Add a bit of seasoning to your marketing efforts with our ever-popular BBQ sets or all-in-one kitchen kits. Retool your strategies and distribute gardening tools or handyman tool sets around the office. Or, cater to the caffeine crowd with personal espresso makers or USB mug warmers. Just think of all the water cooler gossip that will center on your company name!
You can also go practical with your custom office items while still maintaining that snarky edge. Customizable fly swatters tell your company's naysayers to buzz off. Imprinted tape measures tell employees that it's okay to document their growth within the department. Personalized wine openers will blow the lid off of the rumor that the office manager doesn't know how to kick back and have a good time. There's a custom office item or accessory for every budget and companywide occasion!
Still stuck on finding that promotional product that'll make them say WOW? Take all the time you need to look over our Custom Office Items category and see if any irresistible ideas come to mind.

Just think - if you order an ample supply of custom office items, you may even have enough to keep one for yourself!
A customizable auto safety kit or an imprinted wine gift set is sure to be valued more than a personalized pen. Granted, you'll have to spend a little bit more for that kind of satisfaction, but aren't your customers worth it?
Promotional products are only as effective as you make them, but that's no cause for worry. It's easy to make headway if you call on your creative side to get things done. Face it, there's always a point in which your audience craves new giveaway ideas outside of the standard pens, magnets, and key chains. Put your name back into the game and show 'em you're a regular wizard of office items!

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Arena Stage is opening a new play focused on the friendship between Mary Todd Lincoln and her dressmaker, the former slave Elizabeth Keckley, during the Civil War.
Tazewell Thompson wrote and directs "Mary T. & Lizzy K." in Arena's Kogod Cradle theater. It was built as a home for new theatrical works.
The new production depicts the unconventional relationship between Lincoln and Keckley. Thompson says they were assertive, intelligent, outspoken women during the Civil War, and that was extraordinary for Keckley, considering her life as a slave.
It runs through April 28, staring Naomi Jacobson as Lincoln and Sameerah Luqmaan-Harris as Keckley.
This is the first production of Arena's American President's Project. It's an initiative to look at the lives and legacies of U.S. presidents and their families through theater.

Kimi Raikkonen has downplayed concerns that the F1 drivers will have to deal with a completely new beast this season, saying the cars won't be much different.
With the arrival of the 1.6-litre turbocharged engine heralding a new era for Formula One, there are some concerns that the racing could change.
Throw in the new regulation limiting drivers to 100kgs of fuel per race - roughly 60kgs less than what they used in 2013 - and those concerns become worries.
One person, though, who is not at all fazed is the unflappable Raikkonen.
"My feeling is that it's not going to be as different as people think," he said in a video interview for Ferrari, "but I might be wrong.
"Hopefully we'll find out that it's pretty simple.
"For sure it is already difficult for all the technical people to make a new engine, new gearbox, all this stuff, but as a driver it's not really affecting the driving so much.
"Obviously we'll have new buttons and new things to follow, but let's wait and see how easy it is."
The 2007 World Champion, who is back at Ferrari this season partnering Fernando Alonso, also weighed in on the new double points rule.
"This is the same for everybody," he said.
"For sure it might help somebody and might be against somebody else and the people who it helps will like it.
"For me it doesn't matter. It is what it is. It's the rule and like it or not, it isn't going to change."
As for his return to Ferrari, Raikkonen says he has one goal in mind and that is to help the Scuderia secure the Championships.
"It is always very nice to have fans who are very interested and happy that I came back.
"It is nice to come back and hopefully we can achieve a good result and try to bring back the Championship.
"It is the only thing that we will try to do, to try to win the Championship and hopefully as a team we can do that.
"It will be long and difficult especially with the new rules it is hard to say who is where and how it is going to be.
"But I think there are a lot of good people in the team, a lot of knowledge and we have to do the best and see where we end up.
"There is all the chances we can do very well."

ONEIDA COUNTY, N.Y. -- An Oneida County man admitted to assault for shooting at three people earlier this year. Prosecutors say Albert Nellenbach, 35, of Ava fired a .22 caliber rifle at people who came to his property looking for another man in August. Nellenbach was in a sleeping bag near the tree line on Webster Hill Road, when investigators say he jumped up and fired at the group. One man was hit in the ear, elbow and back. Nellenbach is scheduled to be sentenced in February.

Eden Wild Blueberries - Pocket Snacks are low bush, small, wild blueberries from fields called 'barrens' in northern Québec that have been organically managed since 1996. The large area was once forested, but a few years after logging it filled with wild, lowbush blueberries.
The blueberries are handpicked in August, washed, sorted, and quick frozen. When ready for drying they are thawed and infused with organic Eden apple juice concentrate to just the right sweetness or 'Brix'. The infused blueberries are rinsed, low heat air-dried, and lightly misted with organic sunflower oil to prevent clumping. Four pounds of fresh blueberries make one pound of dried.
The wild blueberry is native to northeastern North America growing from Minnesota to Maine and as far north as the Arctic. The wild blueberry is a small, dwarf plant reaching only 1 to 2 feet in height. The cultivated blueberry is much taller with a much wider growing range. Cultivated blueberries are maintained much like an olive grove or an orchard. Wild blueberry plants are not planted. They develop from native existing stands, and are simply managed. Although both types of blueberries contain healthful antioxidants, it is the wild, lowbush blueberry that was recently rated #1 in antioxidant activity by the USDA.
For centuries wild blueberries were prized and gathered from fields, forests, and barrens of North America by Native Americans. The tiny berry was a valuable food used in stew, soup, and with corn sweetened with maple syrup or honey. It was used to make jerky of deer meat. The berry's antioxidants helped preserve the meat. The blossom or calyx of each berry forms the shape of a five pointed star. Native Americans called it the 'star berry', and the elders of the tribe told stories of how the Great Spirit brought the 'star berries' so the children could relieve their hunger during famine. They used the juice of the berries to ease what they called 'old coughs', and to dye rugs, blankets, and clothing. They made smoked berries, sun dried berries, and blueberry powder to flavor other foods. They used the leaves and roots to make teas. When the Pilgrims arrived, Native Americans taught them how to grow and use native plants to help them survive. One such plant was the wild blueberry. They taught them how to sun dry and store them for the winter. The wild blueberry became an important food for the early settlers.
Eden Organic Wild Blueberry Pocket Snacks are delicious and nutritious food. They are low fat, cholesterol free, very low sodium, offer 300 mg of potassium per serving, and are an excellent source of fiber.

• Sterling silver concaved barrel ring with highly polished and oxidized finish
• Floral and leaf motif tapers in back; rope border
• Measures 3/4" long x 3/4" wide and has a tapered shank for a comfortable fit
• Designed and crafted in America
Ornately engraved, this ring resembles the wonderful tooling that you find in your classic American West saddles and cowboy boots. A concave design with vine, leaf and floral motif details pop against a heavily oxidized background giving the silverwork a diamond-cut feel. The motif is encompassed by a twisted rope design surrounding the outside of the ring. Simple enough to wear every day-- yet bold enough to make a statement.

Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed.

Editor's note: Paul Waldman is a contributing editor at The American Prospect and the author of "Being Right Is Not Enough: What Progressives Must Learn From Conservative Success." Follow him on his blog and on Twitter.
(CNN) -- Many trials in recent years have implicated our ongoing national struggles with race. But few have gotten as much attention as that of George Zimmerman, who shot and killed young Trayvon Martin 17 months ago in Sanford, Florida. Perhaps the uncertainty of what really happened that night is part of what drew us: Since only two people knew exactly what transpired and one of them is dead, we're free to speculate and argue to our heart's content.
It may also be the fact that this young black man wasn't killed by the police, but by an ordinary citizen. So anybody could put himself or herself in the place of Zimmerman or Martin.
The verdict by itself says very little about race in America. Juries don't ponder such things; their job is to answer particular legal questions (in this case: Did Zimmerman kill Martin in self defense?)-- which may not be the ones the rest of us are asking. And so Zimmerman's acquittal wasn't much of a surprise.
Opinion: When blacks killed by non-blacks, justice rarely served
Trayvon Martin couldn't give his side of the story, leaving ample room for reasonable doubt. More importantly, under Florida law, it's perfectly legal to follow someone for even the worst of reasons, confront them, and even start a fight with them. Then when you lose the advantage to the point where you believe you're in danger of "great bodily harm," you can shoot the other person dead. The law forgives, whether forgiveness is deserved or not. Zimmerman could have had the soul of Martin Luther King or Bull Connor, and it wouldn't have made a difference to whether he was innocent or guilty under this law.
Social media erupts in anger, sadness over Zimmerman verdict
That's "standing your ground," the legal world that gun advocates have created and this case has highlighted. Gun rights supporters have a Hollywood fantasy in which a brave homeowner uses his gun to fight off a vicious criminal gang intent on killing his family, but this case showed a far less romantic reality: A nebbishy neighborhood watch volunteer with a never-to-be fulfilled dream of becoming a cop chased down a kid who just wanted to get his Skittles back to his dad's house to watch a basketball game.
The state laws governing who you're allowed to shoot and when may not have been built with race in mind, but out in the real world, our perception of what's threatening is still colored profoundly by race. Bill O'Reilly wondered the other day if, after an acquittal, people would "run out and cause trouble." After all, you know how those people are. The head of the Miami-Dade police went to a black church to warn, "Riots are not acceptable and riots are not expected."
Well, if they aren't expected, why was the warning necessary?
There were warnings of riots from many corners, just as there were those who saw in this case an excuse to pick at race like a scab, for no reason other than sending their audiences to greater heights of resentment. Rush Limbaugh, for instance, read a story about the Justice Department sending mediators to Sanford to help local officials defuse tensions, and saw a conspiracy from a White House practically taken over by Black Panthers.
Opinion: Doing what's right not just about law
"Stoking the racial stuff is the way Obama was raised," said Limbaugh, the most prominent race-baiter in America. "He's got a chip on his shoulder about it, and he's here to square the deal. And (Attorney General Eric) Holder too. I think all of these guys have an anger about them."
Even as we scorn repellent hate-mongers like Limbaugh, it's good to remind ourselves that we all make assumptions about other people, and we'd all benefit from examining them. Much of our reaction to cases like this one is built on what we assume other people are like, regardless of what we know about them as individuals. That's what turns a kid walking down the street with candy in his pocket into a threat that should be met with a gun at the ready.

Healers, on the other hand, may want to stay un-attuned, however, they may take damage from both dark and light orbs, so they must be quick on their feet. Any confirmation for this?
Wow that was surprisingly easy... I expected more damage to go out on the raid but in our 25m we had half our healers switch to off spec DPS after the initial try because damage output is very low.
This fight seems to be nothing more then a gear-check/pay attention fight. All you need to do is ensure people have the correct polarity (aura?), switch quickly as needed and burst down the shield before she heals herself = done.
We got the achiev on accident without even trying for it because it is nothing more then 'kill them quickly' lol

I'm an uld10hard/ulduar25/toc10/toc25 geared paladin tank and I absolutely had to attune with the amount of dps my raid was doing. The boss was surprisingly easy, but we went in with a lot of knowledge (thanks tankspot). We actually two shot it with me disconnecting to windows update mid fight. First attempt we hit enrage timer with a few down, but no clear understanding how the heal worked. We tanked the two bosses close to the middle so melee dps could easily switch to burn the shield down, but not too close so the orbs hit everyone. Healers did not attune. I'm not sure if this is intended by blizzard.
Edit: Their hit boxes are huge. Our melee stood closer to their opposite color portal so they could switch quickly and run to other boss to break shield.

Healing don't have benefits of being attuned... however they take medium damage whole fight - so my thoughts are
Light DPS/Tank on Darkbane Dark healers
Dark DPS/Tank on Lightbane Light healers
Healers make "outer circle" leting their opposite orbs to pass trough, while they absorb their own orbs so those orbs don't hurt melee/tank?

The problem with healers staying in opposite attunement is that they must all run out of healing range of their group to switch their attunement when the opposite Valkyr casts vortex. This may cause you problems.

We had everyone attune due to the Dark Vortex ability. We had healers that did not attune themselves to either side and they died when the Dark Vortex went off.
It's quite a simple fight and for normal mode you can ignore the majority of whats going on. As long as you do these 2 things:
1) All dps switches to the Valkyr casting Shield of Darkness, interrupt cast.
2) When Valkyr begins casting Dark Vortex, all players attune themselves with the same color.
Ignore orbs in normal mode.
This was actually a fun and somewhat easy fight in 25 man once everyone knew the abilities. Although our realm kept crashing every 15-20 minutes so we had to call it. Going back today, all in all, its much easier than faction champions were to down (imo).
If you look at your incoming damage when you have a light aura, and he does the light explosion, you will see constant "absorb" etc. If you didnt have an attunment, i dont see how you would absorb it, being that it does do damage regularly.
Plus, on top of that, why would you not attune your tank?
1. Tanks basicaly never move.
2. Tanks attuning to the opposite provides more dps.
3. There is no downside to attuning to the oppsoite one your tanking.
So why would a tank stay neutral? Sure tanks should never "switch" their aura, however I dont see a benifit in staying neutral. Even if the benifit to having an essence is minimal... its still an advantage.
(I would assume that if you dont have an aura you will take damage from both sources)... This is likely a hard mode, or achievment. ie. Defeat the twin Valks without anyone in the raid having an aura.... =)
Downed the twins last night on 10man. Took us two tries due to people not getting the correct attunement during the vortex. Once that was down it was a rather easy fight with some healer checks during spikes and idiot checks during vortexes.
On 10 man you don't even really have to change your aura to burn the shield but on 25 man we did find it necessary to have the raid dps switch.
It's fun to have the right aura and then get empowered and see yourself do 20k tps! I must say I was quite shocked to see the bosses melee for 10k or so on 25 man and even less on 10 man.
Touch of Darkness
Unlimited range
The Val'kyr's Dark touch has affected you, inflicting 5850 to 6150 Dark damage to players under the effect of Light Essence every 2 sec. The Touch of Darkness will not harm targets with the same attributes as it.

20 seconds remaining
Appears to be an undispellable debuff that lasts 20 seconds. I would assume you just swap your dark/light buff and go to the other Val'kyr for the duration. If Vortex goes out you'll want to switch to the aura that grants immunity to that over this damage since according to the listing I saw at least, this is the lesser damage.
When we did this last night I never saw Touch of Darkness (Light) cast.. I wonder if it is a hardmode ability?
There is no reason not to attune. The damage reduction makes life very easy, and you only have to get used to the one switch and switch back about once per minute on average. The added damage/threat is great for the dps/tanks, and the healing is not so intensive you can't spare a moment to click as a healer, and that reduces required healing even further.
I'd assume that with no attunement you take damage from everything, but the novas can be out-ranged (not that it is worth it).

Assuming it has a range, which is likely, it will be best to have that person attune themselves to the proper color and then run to the other Valkyr until the duration is complete.
This is indeed a Heroic mode only ability.
Also, I am updating my information/suggestions based on information found in the official TankSpot video.
Also bear in mind that the MMO-champ stuff came from the PTR and post testing Blizz can and has changed encounters to suit their desires on balancing.
It could come up in heroic, but it also could have just been pared out.

We used this strat and 2 shot the boss on 25 man, and one shot the boss on 10 man afterwards. Extremely effective in the non-heroic version. Very able to switch targets and focus fire the shielded Valkyr.
25 man kill took 4:04 and 10 man kill took 3:11 (we didn't have Bloodlust up for the 10 man kill or we would have had the Achievement -- we had used it on Faction Champs).
It is clear from our Recount report on the 25 man kill that some of our usual top performers were still slightly confused by the strat and didn't perform as well as they usually would. However, I do not believe we had any deaths on the kill attempt.
A couple of edits: We found on the non-kill attempt that 6 healers were overkill, and dropped down to 5 healers (1 resto shaman, 1 resto druid, 1 holy priest, 1 disc priest, 1 holy paladin). Damage is very manageable, and the raid can save themselves most of the damage they will incur. It may even be 4 healable as the healers said it was a very easy fight to heal even with just the 5 of them. So if you're struggling with the enrage timer and not experiencing a lot of deaths, I suggest dropping a healer for a DPS (dual spec go go).

it could also be unnoticed in your encounters. in our fights id occasionally see one of the dps, and in one case myself (tanking darkbane), forced into the opposite attunement. but looking back at our worldoflogs report the it wasnt the touch of dark/light.
one thing i feel i need to point out after downing her on 10 man twice and 25 man once is that when there is the shield on one of the twins, the other one hits the tank a lot harder with the DW+damage buff. this is the place if any that a tank or healer will want to use a defensive CD.
also looking back at the worldoflogs report its the 700k version of the shield in 25 regular

Adams Central senior athlete Bess Fiechter is unpredictable, which is a good quality in her case, says Jets volleyball coach Ashley Beard.

Beard described Fiechter as a great vocal leader who is a good role model to team members on and off the court.
