Gospel music rang out as the Vienna University Choir, the Indian National Youth Orchestra and the Coimbatore Chamber Chorale performed to a packed audience
The walls of CSI Christ Church, Kovaipudur, echoed with the compositions of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Franz Schubert and Anton Bruckner, at the Grand Concert of Sacred Music presented by The Vienna University Choir and India National Youth Orchestra in collaboration with Coimbatore Chamber Chorale and Trivandrum Choristers Association.
During the first session of the concert, conductor Vijay Upadhyaya took centre stage, closed his eyes and raised his hands slowly, and the choir responded with the first song of the evening, Bogoroditse Devo by Sergei Rachmaninoff. It was soon followed by Gabriel Rheinberger's Abendlied.
The Masters
Note sheets were flipped and the choir sang Schubert's The Lord is my Shepherd. The sopranos and basses then filled the hall with Denn Er Hat Seinen Engeln by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
Locus Iste and Ave Maria followed. The choir launched into Vienna, City of My Dreams by Rudolf Sieczynski. The musicians, swayed, held hands and gestured animatedly, as they sang in praise of their city.
The Indian National Youth Orchestra, The Coimbatore Chamber Chorale and Trivandrum Choristers Association joined The Vienna University Choir. Vijay, who is also the founder of the India National Youth Orchestra, said he felt there was a dearth of teachers for Western instrumental music in India.
A need for more
"In a country such as ours with such a huge population, there are not enough teachers for wind instruments such as the Oboe or the horn. This prompted me to start an orchestra group in India, two years ago. Now, it has more than 150 musicians," he said, as he introduced them.
The second part of the evening started with strains of violins, cellos and piano as the choir sang Ave Verum by Mozart. There was applause, as the singers rendered the last lines of Surely He Hath Borne Our Grief from The Messiah by George Frideric Handel.
The audience hummed along and some rose from their seats as the choir launched into Handel's Hallelujah. Feet tapped and heads moved, as the singers gave a spirited rendition of Joshua fit the battle of Jericho by Moses Hogan. The Tamil song, Potruven Thevanaiyae, by Theodore David, sung by all the three choir groups, and conducted by Faith Ragland, the director of Coimbatore Chamber Chorale, received warm applause. The evening concluded, as the audience and the choir sang the closing hymn, All hail the power of Jesus's name.
Gospel music enthusiasts including musicians from Hyderabad, Trichy, Ooty, Trivandrum and Salem were present at the concert. The music spilled out of the church as the choir group stepped out into the churchyard to sing for those who did not get seats inside.
Vijay, who conducts over 50 concerts every year all over the world with The Vienna University Choir, said that choir music should be seen more as an art than religious music, and be imparted to the new generation. "They should be told the difference between classical and pop music. Art demands persistence and dedication. There is no fast-forward to learning it."

What is TaniaRides going on about?! Anyone who knows about this perfume's history will know that Coco Chanel Intended for this fragrance to have no flowery natural composition, and was a very well put together piece of chemicals.
This scent is not right for me. I don't think it's the worse, but I'm looking for a scent that is wow on me.
More reviews by succulentangel2b
I know this sounds pathetic but I decided to give this one another try. After getting sucked by Chanel's 12 million dollar 60 second ad with Nicole Kidman, I was compelled to embrace the so called "couture elegance". I must say ... I LOVE IT!!! I bought the 3.4 oz EDP and spritz it on as soon as I got in the car. I love how it compliments my look: pale nude lips, black Sophia Loren smoky eyes, dewy finish and chunky earrings - it definitely seals the envelope. I am entranced by how rich it smells - woodsy, floral, deep - just amazing. I suggest you all should give it a try.
I love this smell in the bottle and on other people. I wanted to love it given that it seems to be "the scent" but it smelled like stale cat pee on me. Very chemical with a heavy urea aroma, not even like a perfume. One of the worse scents I've ever tried.

Love love love it. Old ladyish-no way. Nicole Kidman as the Chanel No 5 face ladies-thats pure class. Beautiful,dreamy soft notes. Lovely packaging, Price quite high but for quality-part with your cold hard. However on the down-side it doesn't have staying power. Now Ive worn Stella and Chanel No 5, it seems most people have commented on the Stella only. But hey I still love the No 5. I feel beautiful and sexy as hell when encased in a cloud of Chanel No 5. Plus my boyfriend always calls me bella when I wear no 5. Sigh why can't italian cosmetic houses produce a product like this. Then I could match my scent with my italian stallion.
this is really a classic scent. I like it. I thought this would seem a bit too 'mature' for me because i'm only 20, but i think its a very universal scent. and the lasting power is REALLY good. I sprayed it on one night, and the next morning after tossing and turning in my bed all night, i could still smell the scent on my wrist. i like to wear this out on evenings.
Just wanted to revise my review of Chanel No. 5. Over the years, this was one Chanel that I could never make my own, even though I liked the scent. It seemed to hover over my skin like a cool cloud rather than blending into my skin and warming up to my personal chemistry. One summer I tried the edp and fell in love with it. The florals seemed richer. I still find No. 5 a bit distant and formal, no matter how they try to update the image. But I don't mind that. For those who do, there is always the Sensual Elixir, which is more modern and very nice, too. I hvae yet to try No. 5 in parfum extrait. It's on my "to try" list. :-) I think you must find a concentration in No. 5 that works for you, as they all seem quite different.
I used to hope that one day I could wear something Chanel, as the women in my life who wear it wear it so well. No. 5 is the last of all the Chanel fragrances I'll even sniff sprayed into the air. It's chemical, harsh, and completely unsuitable for my skin and personality type.
I wore the edp for a very short while when I was 19, after buying it on a whim. It was not something I should have been wearing at that time. As I am now in my 20s, I can appreciate it more. If you like this in the edp or the edt, you should also try Hermes 24, Fabourg; though I like No. 5 much, much better. I hope to acquire the parfum.

Fastrak 2052 on the way..
Well I finally made a decision and purchased the 2050 Fastrak. The dealer is moving the seat back for me but I'm not sure that I am going to have enough backward movement in the controls even then so I may have to add the extensions. They just don't make these things for tall guys.
He is also adding the stripe kit but talked me out of the mulch kit. I'm going to try it with out it but I have a feeling I'm going to be adding it later. Hopefully they will deliver it to me tommorrow. This is really going to beat the heck out of my little Scotts lawn tractor! |

Halton police are asking for help from the public to identify a man after a woman was sexually assaulted in a Winston Churchill Boulevard movie theatre early Wednesday.
The incident occurred shortly after midnight when a man sat beside a woman at the end of a movie and inappropriately touched her.
The female left the theatre and called police, but by the time officers arrived the suspect had fled.
A similar incident was reported at the same theatre complex in February, however, police have yet to determine whether the assaults are connected.
"At this point in time, we are aware of the inappropriate touching that also occurred in February. We are looking at these two incidents, but at this time there is nothing to say it's the same person," said Detective Chris Newcombe.
"That certainly could change… At this point we are not sure if there are additional victims. If there are, we would certainly hope they would come forward and contact us."
The suspect in the recent assault is described as being 30-35 years of age, clean-shaven, with short black hair and overweight, with a pear-shaped build.
He wore blue jeans, a T-shirt and a grey sweater.
Anyone with information about either of these incidents is asked to contact the Halton Police Child Abuse and Sexual Assault Unit at 905-465-8970 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

During a recent film shoot at Mashatu Game Reserve in the south-eastern corner of Botswana, we decided to go and visit the underground photographic hide to get some low angle and close-up images and footage of elephants drinking, but also of various other mammal and bird species visiting the waterhole. Ideally you need to be in the hide just before sunrise, so we left Main Camp at 6 a.m., as it takes about 25 minutes to drive there.

Solitario Announces Resource Sensitivities To Gold Price For Its Mt. Hamilton Gold Project, Nevada
Solitario Exploration & Royalty Corp. ("Solitario;" NYSE MKT: XPL; TSX: SLR) and Ely Gold & Minerals ("Ely Gold;" TSX.V: ELY) are pleased to announce the results of a gold price sensitivity study on Mt. Hamilton resources. Resource estimates were tabulated using three gold/silver price assumptions for the confining optimized pit shape: $1,100/$19, $1,300/$22 and $1,500/$25 per ounce. The study showed that the contained ounces in the Mt. Hamilton gold/silver resource is relatively insensitive to gold price assumptions between $1,100 to $1,500 and silver prices between $19 and $25 per ounce as presented in the tables below. The cutoff grade of 0.006 ounces per ton gold was held constant for the reporting of the three price scenarios.
The Measured and Indicated resource estimate for the February 2012 Feasibility Study assumed a gold price of $1,600 and resulted in 526,854 ounces of contained gold (excluding silver). With the addition of the Seligman resource and additional drilling conducted since the Feasibility Study was completed, the new Measured and Indicated resource estimate using an $1,100 per ounce gold price resulted in a 21% increase in contained gold to 638,490. In addition, Inferred in-pit resources increased 105% from 60,859 contained ounces of gold in the Feasibility Study to 124,806 contained gold ounces generated under the new lower case $1,100 gold price assumption.
Chris Herald, President and CEO of Solitario, stated, "We are extremely pleased with the results of this study which basically represents a gold price stress-test on the Mt. Hamilton resource base. Clearly, the work conducted by the joint venture since the release of the February 2012 Feasibility Study has added significant new value to the project. Under the $1100/$19 per ounce gold/silver price assumption, the Measured and Indicated gold equivalent resource stands at 730,477 ounces of gold equivalent. We believe that with the design of our new mine plan combining the Centennial and Seligman deposits into a single pit ( http://www.solitarioxr.com/art/Seligman-CentennialResourceModel.pdf), and increasing our production rate from 8,500 to 10,000 tons per day, project economics will remain robust at lower metal prices."
These new resource estimates were prepared on behalf of Solitario by SRK Consulting (U.S.) Inc. ("SRK") and serve to update the previous resource estimate for the Mt. Hamilton Project stated in the most recent October 25, 2012 Technical Report. The updated Mount Hamilton resource estimates were constrained by potentially minable optimized pits using gold price assumptions of $1,100, $1,300 and $1,500 per ounce of gold and $19, $22 and $25.00 per ounce of silver. These new Mt. Hamilton resource estimates were based on 857 drill holes with an average hole depth of 396 feet for a total of 317,739 feet of drilling. The drill data were verified and validated by SRK in compliance with NI-43-101 requirements. This consolidated Mt. Hamilton resource estimate includes 60 new infill drill holes that converted earlier Inferred resources to the Indicated category, and added new ounces to the resource estimate.

Why We Love Shrimp
by Toby Amidor in Why We Love, June 30, 2012For years my culinary students have told me how much they love shrimp. They're pretty surprised when I tell them that these crustaceans are not only delicious, but good for you too! Here's why we love shrimp and how you can too.
Shrimp Facts
90% of the shrimp Americans consume is imported from countries in the Central and South America and Asia-Pacific regions. The hundreds of species of shrimp are typically divided into 2 basic categories: warm-water and cold-water shrimp. The rule of thumb is the colder the water, the smaller and juicier the shrimp.
Shrimp ranges in hue from deep red to pink to grayish-white to yellow and even dark green. When cooked, most shrimp shells change color due to a heat-induced chemical change.
You can buy shrimp according to their size—usually you'll find that larger shrimp cost a prettier penny. Colossal shrimp usually come 10 or less per pound, jumbo 11-15 per pound, extra-large 16-20 per pound, large 21-30 per pound, medium 31-35 per pound, small 36-45 per pound and miniature about 100 per pound. Of course, these numbers can vary from region to region. As a general rule, one pound of whole, raw shrimp yields ½ to ¾ pound of cooked meat.
Shrimp is available all year round. They can be found in various forms at your local market such as shelled or unshelled, cooked or raw and fresh or frozen.
The Nutrition Scoop
Three ounces of shrimp has 83 calories, 1 gram of fat, and 18 grams of protein. It's an excellent source of selenium and a good source of vitamins D and B12. It also has a boatload of omega-3 fats and the amino acid tryptophan.
The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends 2 servings per week of seafood—right now, the average American only eats one serving per week. The American Heart Association also advocates eating seafood twice a week; studies have shown that it can help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Many of my clients have voiced concern about the cholesterol found in shrimp. Studies have shown that saturated fat (not cholesterol) has a greater impact on raising your bad cholesterol. Although 3-ounces of shrimp contains about 40% of your daily recommended max of cholesterol, it doesn't contain any saturated fat. In addition, shrimp is very low in calories per ounce (about 28)—which makes it one of the lowest calorie protein sources around.
Shrimp Ideas
Here are ways you can enjoy this succulent crustacean:
- Roast shrimp for a delicious twist on shrimp cocktail.
- Keep it cool with Ellie Krieger's Shrimp and Snow Pea Salad.
- A little bit of bacon goes a long way with Tyler Florence's Bacon Wrapped Shrimp.
- Nothing beats a home-cooked Jambalaya.
- Grill 'em up in this Charcoal Grilled Shrimp recipe courtesy of The Shrimp Council (pictured above).
Charcoal Grilled Shrimp
Number of Servings: 30 kebabs
2 pounds large shrimp in the shell
1/3 cup safflower oil
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons dry white wine or vermouth
1 tablespoon minced shallots or green onions (white part only)
1 clove garlic minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh dill
Several dashes Tabasco sauce
Place shrimp in a shallow ceramic or glass baking dish. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over shrimp. Cover and chill several hours or overnight. Drain shrimp and reserve marinade. Thread on skewers or place in a wire grill basket. Grill shrimp over hot coals, turning and brushing with reserved marinade, until pink and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Serve with wooden picks.

Stayed 3 nights, 4 days with my boyfriend and had a very nice stay. Nice and spacious bungalows with private bathroom with hot water. The bungalows were located almost on the beach. We read here on Tripadvisor that the hotel should be run-down but they must have made up for that, cause everything looked fresh and not at all run-downed!... More

when you buy the foil liners -- what are you supposed to do with the paper ones that are in between each foil liner? Do you throw them away (are they "real" cupcake liners) or can you use them?
The package says nothing about it. |
Follow-Up Postings:
The Reynolds company says: Reynolds Baking Cups are packed with paper separators to prevent the foil cups from fusing together during manufacturing. These paper separators should be removed before filling the foil baking cups with batter. The paper separators are the same as our Pastels Baking Cups. |
- Posted by teresa_nc7 (My Page) on Fri, Sep 30, 11 at 9:24
I thought the foil cups were to be used if you didn't have a muffin tin? They will sit on a baking sheet where you can safely fill them without them collapsing from the weight of the batter. Then you can lift the baked cupcakes out of the foil cups and serve the cupcakes in the paper cups per usual. The paper cups are "liners" whether you put them in the muffin tin cups or whether you use them to line to foil cups. |
I use foil liners in a muffin tin. I like the way they look and they peel off more cleanly from the baked product than paper ones. I use the paper separator leftover ones, too. In a pinch. |
- Posted by kathleenca (My Page) on Fri, Sep 30, 11 at 16:57
I use both the foil & paper liners, & have not seen a difference in the way they perform. I had thought the foil ones were for a different 'look." And see Shaun's post above: no difference in the liners & the paper cups. |
So I baked pumpkin chip muffins in the tin with both paper and foil liners. The muffins pop right out of the foil liners but stuck to all the paper liners :( I am sticking with foil and ditching the paper. I hate, hate, hate cleaning muffins tins so I always use liners. |
I usually go cheap and just get paper liners for rare times I make muffins or cupcakes. Always thought the foil later was for stability... maybe looks?? I also hate cleaning muffin pans. Even if called "non-stick"... they do stick and quickly have little bits that are about impossible to get off. I give inside of paper liners a quick spray of non stick stuff... otherwise seems like a lot of the product rips off with the paper?? |
Here is a cute "tool" to clean muffin pans. |

Rain dampens thrilling chase
Australia won their 2012 ICC World Twenty20 game against West Indies by 17 runs on the Duckworth-Lewis method after rain stopped play at Colombo on Saturday.
Chris Gayle started in usual fashion, taking his time to settle in after West Indies won the toss and chose to bat first. After reaching 5 off 9 balls in 4 overs, he began a rampage against Pat Cummins in the 5th over where he took 18 off the young pacer. Dan Christian and Brad Hogg were the next to feel the heat before Glenn Maxwell was hit for 17 runs. 4 of those came via an inside edge which just about missed the stumps and ran away for a boundary behind the keeper. It also brought up his half century, off just 26 balls.
A leading edge off Shane Watson soon after that ballooned up and Watson took the catch at mid off to send Gayle back for 54 (47m 33b 4x5 6x4). Marlon Samuels (50, 32b, 4x3, 6x4) and Dwayne Bravo (27, 21b, 4x1, 6x1) chipped in as West Indies posted 191/8 in their 20 overs.
David Warner began a thundering reply to the West Indies total, racing away to 28 off 14b (4x3, 6x2) before his dismissal in the 3rd over, a contentious caught behind decision he showed his displeasure at. Shane Watson however launched a brutal assault on the Windies bowlers, using the slog sweep repeatedly and successfully. He went after Marlon Samuels in the 8th over, taking him for 22 runs with two fours and sixes. He received good support from Mike Hussey (28*, 19b, 4x3, 6x1) at the other end and he was on 40* (24b, 4x2, 6x3) when rain halted play. Australia were on 100/1 in 9.1 overs, 17 ahead of the par score according to the Duckworth-Lewis method and were adjudged winners, sealing their passage to the Super 8s stage of the tournament.

Meanwhile, on the Internet
Utah named nerdiest state in the nation
Seeing a line around the block for the newest "Hobbit" film or someone dressed up like your favorite boy wizard wandering around downtown Salt Lake City is pretty typical in the Beehive State.
And no wonder — research done by national real estate search site Estately ranked Utah as the nerdiest state in the nation.
"Utah is just so unbelievably nerdy it could be a Harry Potter theme park," writes Ryan Nickum, blogger for Estately.
We're just missing a certain blue phone booth.
The rankings were based on the number of people who indicated on Facebook they held the following 12 interests:
• Star Trek: The Next Generation
• Cosplay
• Harry Potter
• Star Wars
• Anime movies
• Dungeons & Dragons
• LARPing (Live Action Role-Playing)
• Doctor Who
• Fantasy lit
• Lord of the Rings
• Magic: The Gathering
• Comic books
So while Washington, D.C., took the title for Nerd Hell, Utah was deemed Nerd Heaven.

Obama's Former Faith Adviser: 'I, Frankly, Am Glad American Civil Religion is Dying'
(CNSNews.com) – Shaun Casey, the religious affairs adviser to presidential candidate Barack Obama in 2008, said at a discussion on Tuesday about "God and Politics" that the demise of religious society in the United States is a good thing.
"I, frankly, am glad American civil religion is dying," said Casey, who is an associate professor of Christian Ethics at Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C.
Casey made the remarks at an event focusing on religion and the 2012 presidential election at the liberal Center for American Progress where he was a panelist along with Gabriel Salguero, president of the National Hispanic Evangelical Coalition.
Casey was responding to Salguero's claim that civil religion is employed by politicians as an "iconic use of faith."
"There is also a negative underside to that history with respect to slavery, manifest destiny, to war, you know, to empires, so I, frankly, am glad American civil religion is dying," Casey said. "But it does raise the practical question, what does bind us together in some way as a country?
"We need some substitute for that and I don't think we've found it yet," Casey said.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a Swiss-French philosopher, is credited with coining the term "civil religion" in his 1762 book in his series "The Social Contract." He described civil religion as the moral and spiritual foundation of modern society.
Panelist Robert Jones, founding CEO of the Public Religion Research Institute, said that while two-thirds of Americans say it is important to them that the president has "strong religious beliefs," that finding reflects more a "proxy for trustworthiness" than religious conviction.
In June 2008, Casey was hired by the Obama campaign to "focus on outreach to evangelical voters," according to a June 27, 2008 Washington Post article. The article also said that Casey, who was named senior adviser of religious affairs, had been informally advising the campaign for a year before his official appointment.
The Washington Post also reported that Casey was raised as an evangelical Christian and had earned degrees from Abilene Christian University and Harvard Divinity School.
Casey also informally advised Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) and former Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean of Vermont in the past, the article said.
During Obama's presidential campaign, Casey defended Obama's affiliation with Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the controversial and left-wing pastor of the United Church of Christ in Chicago and one-time "spiritual adviser" to Obama.
Obama attended Rev. Wright's church for 20 years.
Obama distanced himself from Wright after his many controversial remarks and sermons were made public during the 2008 campaign.
On Mar. 18, 2008, Casey told The Washington Post, "The senator [Obama] is not naive, and what he's doing is very hard. He's trying to remain loyal to his pastor but also differentiate himself politically."

The National Weather Service Issues A Heat Advisory For Most Of Arkansas
By Maggie Carroll
A heat advisory is in affect for Central and Southwest Arkansas for Tuesday and Wednesday. Temperatures are expected to reach the upper 90s and in some areas even 100 degrees, but will feel warmer due to humidity levels.
Senior Forecaster John Lewis says certain groups of people are more likely to be affected negatively by the heat.
"Small children, the elderly, people in general who work outside for long periods of time, should at least consider moving indoors...so the heat isn't as prolonged" said Lewis.
The National Weather Service warning begins Tuesday at noon and will last until Wednesday evening.

Solo 15.6-inch Urban Hybrid Briefcase (Solo) |
Name: Solo 15.6-inch Urban Hybrid Briefcase
What it is: A roomy polyester briefcase that converts to a backpack or shoulder bag, all weighing less than 2 pounds. The padded, easily adjustable backpack straps can be tucked away in a pocket made for that purpose, and the padded shoulder strap easily detaches and stows away. One large cargo area, with two padded dividers, can hold your laptop, iPad, Kindle, etc., while still accommodating plenty of work-related files. Two exterior compartments can take smaller items such as a passport, a phone and even your weekend supply of socks, underwear and toiletries.
The good: This is the perfect "personal bag," as the airlines call them. That means it's not a checked bag or even a carry-on. It's incredibly versatile for a traveler who wants the most out of every bag. For a long weekend, this is all I would need — the heck with a carry-on — and I wouldn't have to compete for an overhead bin. It can slide under an airline seat while easily holding all the clothes I would need for a few days, plus my iPad and other small electronics. For the business traveler who wants a more refined look, hide away the backpack straps when the time comes. Otherwise while on your trip, use this to carry that bottle of wine, loaf of bread, summer sausage and chunk of fine cheese out on a day hike and picnic.
The bad: I know today's plastic can wear like iron, but the buckles and connectors are made of plastic, which can give me pause. But metal accouterments on bags are heavier and pricier.
Cost: $49.99

Governor McAuliffe signed an Executive Order yesterday creating a cabinet solely dedicated to the education, health, safety, and welfare of Virginia's children and youth. The newly launched Children's Cabinet will develop and implement a policy agenda that will help better serve Virginia's children and will also foster collaboration between state and local agencies. As a part of that effort, the Governor also signed a second Executive Order establishing the Commonwealth Council on Childhood Success. This Council will be chaired by Lt. Governor Northam and will focus on improving the health, education, and well-being of our youngest children. CONTINUE READING…

"It's Time to Switch Gears"
Written by: Ashlee W. Roberts, 800-CHILDREN Parent Helpline Director / Public Affairs Manager at Prevent Child Abuse Virginia
September 19th, 2013 – If you've watched the news lately, it's likely that you've heard about some type of child abuse incident that has occurred. Did the story include information on how the "incident" could have been prevented? I'm willing to bet your answer is "no". Unfortunately, there is very little attention given to the question of what it would have taken to have prevented these tragedies from happening in the first place.
For every story of child abuse and exploitation we see in the news, there are thousands of other stories, just as real, just as horrifying, that receive no media coverage at all. If you think this type of "stuff" is happening somewhere far away, to people you don't know – think again! The odds are actually quite high that each one of us knows several people who have been affected personally by child abuse. All around us there are people who have suffered from abuse or neglect and live with the lasting impact on their emotional and physical health. And there are children suffering today. Why do we tolerate this? Why do we let it go on? Here's why… because we don't put enough emphasis on prevention!
Last week, The Washington Post featured an article discussing the latest research on the untreated effects of child abuse and neglect. The research clearly shows the need to support prevention programs like PCAV's 800-CHILDREN Parent Helpline, Circle of Parents support groups, Healthy Families Virginia, and the Hugs & Kisses child sexual abuse prevention play. Click here to learn more about the services offered by Prevent Child Abuse Virginia.
Research is great, but when the findings continue to show the same trends over and over again, it's time to stop trying to prove that the problem exists, and focus on how to prevent it from ever occurring in the first place. I think we've been successful in raising awareness that child abuse and neglect is a major issue in our society – now it's time to switch gears and raise awareness that child abuse is preventable. We need the political will to do what works best to raise our children to be healthy, strong, proactive adults who will become productive, caring, and contributing members of society, and live life to the fullest – every child deserves that opportunity!
Child abuse is heart breaking. Most people can't think about the issue without feeling pain. It's dramatic. It's frightening. It brings on feelings of outrage, along with a desire to punish the offender and rescue the child. The moment a child is injured or killed is often when people jump to get involved – at exactly the wrong moment, because it's too late. Often times when a loved one dies, we feel some type of guilt and question ourselves about what we could have done to prevent him from losing his life. In my opinion, child abuse is no different. When a child experiences abuse or neglect he loses part of his life. A part of him dies. His life is forever changed. We should all experience some form of guilt because the fact is, we could have prevented it! So instead of watching those dramatic stories on the news and responding with thoughts like "people are sick", "how could someone do that to a child" or "that is so sad" … do something about it!
Remember that "research" I was talking about earlier? Well, it also shows that every 83 minutes a child is abused or neglected – in Virginia alone! Since Prevent Child Abuse Virginia is the only statewide organization dedicated solely to the prevention of child abuse and neglect, we have a lot of work to do – but we can't do it without you!
Please consider supporting Prevent Child Abuse Virginia during The Amazing Raise. Your tax deductible donation will directly support the programs and services that PCAV provides to families and children throughout the Commonwealth (not just those in the Richmond area). This 36-hour online giving challenge makes it possible for $25 to turn into $1,000 or $50 turn into $20,000! Pretty AMAZING, huh? For example, the organization that receives the most donations of $25 or more from 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm, will be awarded the "Procrastinator's Prize" – an additional $2,000 given by The Community Foundation . See the Complete List of Prizes
Primary prevention of child abuse and neglect isn't "dramatic". It isn't the lead story on the six o'clock news. Yet, prevention strategies have been proven to be successful. When we work together in small ways to make our community a safe and supportive place for families, we can make a huge difference – Prevent Child Abuse Virginia strives to do just that – every day!
~Ashlee W. Roberts
*The Amazing Raise is a 36-hour online giving challenge hosted by The Community Foundation, and has raised more than $1.8 million for local charities over the past two years. It is an AMAZING opportunity for friends, family, neighbors and colleagues to come together and raise as much money as possible for local nonprofits (like PCAV) in just 36 hours and, in turn, celebrate the generous spirit of giving that helps define the state of Virginia.

March 23, 2013 – Pinwheel Planting
The pinwheel serves as the new national symbol for child abuse prevention. It is a reflection of hope, health and safety – what PCAV and our parent organization, Prevent Child Abuse America, desire for children throughout Virginia and everywhere.
Every April – during Child Abuse Prevention Month – PCAV and many of its 43 partner organizations around the state plant pinwheel gardens in honor of children in their communities. Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens in Richmond hosts the state's signature pinwheel garden every year near a lake in the Children's Garden. This year, on March 23rd, volunteers will plant nearly 4,000 pinwheels to celebrate Virginia's children.

On Saturday, February 16th, PCAV held the 4th Annual Be Mine Ball at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.

Thank you to all of the sponsors and guests who joined us for an evening of fine art, delicious food and beverages, a silent auction, and dancing to the live music of the Acoustipops and King Edward and the BD's. Most importantly, thank you for making a difference in the lives of our most valuable resource – our children!

ADVOCACY ALERT! Action Needed!
PCAHR has serious concerns about this legislation which must be communicated to members of the House and Senate.
All Senators and Delegates need to hear your concerns.
For further details read this editorial in the Roanoke Times
Action needed – Each person is asked to contact their own Senator and Delegate and ask them to vote against both bills.
These bills will make it harder to protect children from abuse and neglect and could create numerous unintended consequences.
To contact your representatives go to –
Click on "Who's My Legislator?" at the top.
Enter your mailing address and it will take you to a page with information for your Senator and Delegate.
There you can get their phone numbers and call; or
you can scroll down to the link "Contact My Legislators" and send one email to both legislators.
Just tell them that the bills are bad for children and ask them to OPPOSE HB 1642 and SB 908.
One Billion Rising is this Thursday!
Please see below for a message from PCAV's friends at One Billion Rising.
This Thursday is One Billion Rising – a massive worldwide campaign to gather at least one billion women and those who love us to call for an end to violence against women and girls. It is an opportunity for us to gather in solidarity as we call to end domestic violence and sexual abuse. It is a chance to dance and play and celebrate the vastness of the human spirit and to empower ourselves and men with the awareness of our fabulous female selves.
In Richmond, One Billion Rising RVA will take place Thursday, February 14th, Valentines Day, from 11-2 at the Richmond Coliseum. All are invited. Admission is free.
From 11-12 we will have a resource fair along with entertainment – dancers, hoopers, musicians, artists, glow spinners, drummers…
From 12-1:15 we will have a more formal program with the following speakers: Carol Adams, Claire Hylton Sheppard, Susan Singer, Mayor Dwight Jones, and Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Rebiya Kadeer with Christina Feerick of WRIC TV8 as our emcee.
At 1:15 we will drum and dance and celebrate the magnificent glory we embody as women and the joy inherent in being alive!
We hope you will be able to come join this call to end violence against women world wide. We hope you will bring your friends and familymembers. We hope you will send this email to everyone you know to let them know this is happening in 200 countries all over the globe, not only here in Richmond, VA. We are planning on 10,000 people, but that's a hard number to pull in without the help of everyone possible. My hope is that this email will go viral with your help, and the entire city of Richmond will hear about One Billion Rising before it happens on Thursday! Can you help?!
We've been getting some good press the last week or so. If you're curious, here are links to the articles and interviews that have appeared thus far. Tomorrow at 9 I'll be on Channel 8 talking about it for about 2 minutes.

La Diff's blog http://blog.ladiff.com/2013/
Faith in Richmond http://faithinrichmond.com/
If you feel so led, we welcome your donation to help pay for our expenses (they are substantially higher than the $1500 indiegogo goal, so we are keeping the campaign alive even though we've met our goal. We have raised $5009 so far and have $2500 more to go. Anything left over will happily be donated to the Action Alliance, our fiscal sponsor, an organization which coordinates all 70+ shelters in Virginia. All donations are tax-deductible.) http://www.indiegogo.com/
If you feel led in another direction, we would love to have your help. We need 60 more volunteers. You can sign up at http://onebillionrisingrva.
But whatever you do, please take a moment on the 14th to feel the incredible energy moving around the globe hour by hour as risings take place all over the planet, all aimed at building love and compassion and the empowerment of women. We hope you can join us. We ask that you tell everyone you know that this is happening, wherever they're living.
Thank you.

This summer I have noticed several holes in my yard, I don't see tunneled areas since the holes go up under my deck and the shed. However, these holes have eaten my asiatic lilies from the root up. The entire plant is GONE! the rest of my plants are intact. Can't say that the dog has noticed any critters either. Does anyone have any idea what I might be dealing with?
Thanks for your help. |

Super Bowl Ads Face Off On Twitter In Online Brand Battle
A stolen prom kiss and speeding showgirls competed against an unexpected blackout and a clever Oreo post for online fans as the Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
The stakes were high for the championship football game's advertising sponsors, who spent as much as $133,333 a second for a half-minute of airtime Sunday, a record marketers say was justified by the expected repeat viewings and buzz on the Web.
While no one could have predicted a 35-minute midgame power failure, advertisers used skills honed in the social-media era to respond immediately. Twitter said marketers started bidding on "power outage" as a search term minutes after the lights went out. Mondelez International's digital ad agency, 360i, posted a picture of an Oreo cookie on Twitter with the tagline "You can still dunk in the dark," moving from concept to posting in five minutes.
The Oreo Twitter post was recirculated more than 13,100 times. Earlier in the CBS broadcast, Mondelez ran a commercial asking viewers to decide which part of an Oreo is best, the cookie or the creme filling.
Google said in an email that on YouTube, its video-sharing site, M&M's had the most searched-for commercial, followed by Mercedes-Benz, the Walt Disney movie "Oz Great and Powerful," the Ford Lincoln and Volkswagen's Audi.
Twitter advertisers can bid to locate so-called sponsored tweets near popular search terms, and the "power outage" term proved a draw.
On Google, searches related to the power outage rose during the game, reaching No. 8 among most queried terms during the game. Overall, the top trending search during the game was M&M's, which showed a commercial early in the broadcast. Performer Beyonce, who provided halftime entertainment, was No. 2 while the Baltimore Ravens were No. 3. The losing San Francisco 49ers were No. 4 and their quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, was No. 5.
"In the last three to four years, brands have been gearing up on the social media front ahead of the game," Derek Rucker, marketing professor at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, said in an interview. "But now more so than ever we're seeing them take advantage of it during the game."
On Facebook's website, comments mentioning "Dodge" jumped 151,000 percent after the airing of the advertisement for Chrysler's Dodge Ram brand, while the count for "Taco Bell" surged 140,000 percent after its commercial, the social-network operator said in a statement. Mentions of the laundry detergent Tide increased by 132,000 percent after its advertising spot.
The percentage gains were measured using the number of comments mentioning the brands made at the peak of each advertisement compared with the average made before the event.
The game, which Baltimore won 34-31 at the Superdome in New Orleans, drew marketers such Coca-Cola and Volkswagen as well as lesser-known brands including Wonderful Pistachios and Gildan Activewear. BlackBerry, struggling to rehabilitate its faltering brand, advertised for the first time in the Super Bowl, promoting the Z10 smartphone ahead of its U.S. release in March.
Internet companies took on the role of referee, measuring viewers' votes, "likes" on Facebook, searches and sentiments in an attempt to declare a winner among the Super Bowl sponsors.
In one surprise move, Chrysler, majority owned by Fiat, aired a two-minute spot immediately after the halftime show narrated by talk show host Oprah Winfrey, thanking U.S. military personnel and families for their devotion. The commercial, called "Whole Again" and sponsored by Jeep, recalled last year's surprise appearance by director and actor Clint Eastwood in a Chrysler advertisement.
In a post on Twitter, Winfrey said she "loved lending my voice to America's team — our troops." The Chrysler spot was one of the last to air before the power failure.
Many advertisers started streaming their Super Bowl spots ahead of the game to draw a bigger audience, both online and on television. Ads released before the game typically generate more than 9.1 million online views on average, compared with 1.3 million for those appearing on the Web the day of the game, according to Lucas Watson, vice president of advertising at YouTube.
"You're more likely to remember the brand on the Super Bowl day if you saw the ad beforehand," he said in an interview.
Some advertisers crafted contests ahead of the game to draw in more viewers. Carmaker Audi, owned by Volkswagen, created three different endings to an ad featuring a male prom partier who heads to the dance alone. Viewers voted for the ending in which he surprised the prom queen with a welcome kiss and drew a black eye from her official date.
Coca-Cola, one of the biggest Super Bowl sponsors, also held an online poll on an ending to a commercial. Unlike Audi, its voting was designed to continue through the game itself. The ad showed three groups — cowboys, showgirls and "badlanders" — racing across a desert to reach a bottle of Coke.
PepsiCo, a perennial Super Bowl advertiser, held an online competition to see which fan-made commercial for Doritos should air during the game. The two that aired were "Goat for Sale," about a man who comes to regret buying a goat that shares his insatiable appetite for the snack, and "Fashionista Daddy," about a father who indulges his daughter's desire for a dress-up party along with his buddies.
Companies paid CBS an average of $3.75 million for 30- second Super Bowl spots, up 7.1 percent from a year earlier, the most expensive ad rate in U.S. media, according to WPP's Kantar Media, an industry research firm. Some sponsors paid more than $4 million, CBS Chief Executive Officer Les Moonves said in an interview.
Rates for Super Bowl spots have climbed about 60 percent over the past decade, showing how much marketers value the chance to reach the largest TV audience. Last year's game had 78 commercials and produced ad sales of $262.5 million, according to Kantar Media.
Super Bowl sponsors get a 20 percent increase in traffic on their websites on the day of the game, and the audience remains higher than average the following week, according to an analysis from Adobe Systems.

Updated 05/02/2013
Recently remodeled, this midsize hotel promises a little bit of Italy on Powell Street. Bar Norcini, an Italian café-bar with marble surfaces, is just off the street, and a glass wall separates a wide lobby with high ceilings, comfy furnishings, and Italianate chandeliers from Kuleto's, a boisterous, trendy restaurant often packed with locals. Guests can enter the restaurant directly from inside the hotel and eat there, or simply sit at the bar. The hotel's freshly painted
colorful hallways have plush orange-print carpets, and the traditional rooms, though not large, feel comfortable, upbeat, and expansive, with inviting FeatherBorne beds, new TVs, and work desks. Bathrooms are clean and closets are spacious. Offering contemporary surroundings with Tuscan character and personalized service, it's an attractive alternative to the sometimes sterile chain hotels in the area. Be warned: the hotel charges a resort fee to cover "amenities" like newspaper delivery or town car use.

The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

The state has taken control over the oil revenues, the population has
been heavily subsidized and the generals for the most part have been
bought into the system.
Do we mean the the generals HAVE BOUGHT into the system, or have BEEN
BROUGHT into the system? If we are trying to say they had to be
purchased, we could just do so explicitly, like "and for the most
part, the loyalty of the generals has been purchased by the regime."
that's fine with me
First, in light of the January devaluation of the bolivar,
local-currency proceeds from oil sales have now doubled, meaning the
government will have plenty of bolivars to support the wage increase.
Second, since the annual inflation rate - as reported by Venezuela's
central bank- stands at about 30 percent, the wage increase only
amounts to around a 10 percent in real terms. Further, as the
devaluation and recent changes to the central bank's charter probably
will increase inflationary pressures in coming quarters, inflation
will continue to erode real wages.
Changed that to

In the same address in which he announced the salary increase for the
military, Chavez acknowledged Rivero's complaints, saying he was
saddened by the general's attempt at 15 minutes of fame.
I couldn't find this on google anywhere. Did he actually use the
phrase "15 minutes of fame"? if so we should put quotes around it, and
if we're just conveying his general sentiments can i paraphrase? he
used a phrase similar to that in spanish, so i was paraphrasing. can
adjust if needed
This symbiotic relationship saw its clearest manifestation with the
July 2008 passage of the Organic Law of the National Armed Forces. The
law redefined the Venezuelan Armed Forces from a politically
nonaligned professional institution (as stated in the 1999
constitution) to a patriotic, popular and anti-imperialist body, as
described in the legislation.
popular and anti-imperialist are fine, but members of the military
would probably have called themselves patriotic before it was
redefined into law. Can we either nix the word patriotic, or if this
was taken directly from the law itself, put all this stuff in
quotation marks?
and his following part
Chavez, not wanting to be caught off guard again by his generals as
was during an April 2002 coup attempt, created the law to develop a
Bolivarian military primarily tasked with protecting and defending the
regime from internal threats.
are we using "Bolivarian" to simply describe the Venezuelan national
army, or do we mean to say Bolivarian MILITIA here? military

Making Amends
Mosaic, By Robert Eli Rubinstein, April 27, 2014
A mysterious request leads the Canadian-born son of a Holocaust survivor back to the old country.
"There's someone here to see you."
"Who is it?"
"Her name is Magda Zelenka," replied my receptionist. "She says she has something important to discuss with you, but she doesn't have an appointment."
It took me a moment to recall Magda. Decades earlier, my late father Bill had hired her and her husband Ferenc as superintendents of an apartment building in the Toronto suburb of Etobicoke. Despite his own shattered life back in Hungary, my father was remarkably free of vindictiveness, hiring Germans, Austrians, Ukrainians, Croats—even Hungarians—as long as they were the best qualified candidates for a job.
The Zelenkas proved excellent employees: hard-working, courteous, beloved by tenants. After long years of service, Ferenc suffered a series of heart attacks followed by a fatal stroke. Although Magda hoped to continue managing the building on her own, the challenge had proved overwhelming. She was no youngster, and hardly in the best of health herself. Nor, in spite of her lengthy residence in Canada, had she ever really mastered the English language, which made it difficult for her to communicate. With deep regret, she submitted her resignation, asking only that she be allowed to rent an apartment in one of our buildings. (more…)

The 'Taystee Chilli Sauce: Burned Billboard' advert is minimalist and effective.
This billboard looks like it was burnt off its fixture. This method is an extremely creative way to advertise hot sauce, as it insinuates that even the non-edible parts of the product are too hot to handle. The large boards look slightly alarming at first, as passersby will wonder where the fire was and look around for more damage in the surrounding area. Once they realize it's just the board and look closer, they'll see a bottle of hot sauce depicted in the corner of the billboard.
If you are looking for some tasty sauce, grab some Taystee Chilli Sauce to spice up your life.

Brand new to this site and these forums, I stumbled upon this site whilst looking into the recent recall for my Walther PPk/s (currently my favorite carry) It is now unloaded and awaits instructions from S&W... they contacted me about the recall.
Looking forward to much great info here... I am actually looking for a new CC holster... I will have to check the forum line-up.
I have had my CCW since since leaving the Silent Service (SUBS) in 1980, wouldn't think of leaving the house without a side arm.

If you are a single mother, then it is natural for you to feel very confused as to how to make ends meet. This dilemma exists for every woman but if you are in Arkansas, then you can relax; your state has quite a few programs for single moms Arkansas help. You just need to know where to start looking and what exactly you need help with. All the single mother grants in Arkansas are offered on a need basis in different areas such as education for your child, housing for both of you, childcare aid, health care benefits.
Although each kind of government scheme will have a separate eligibility criteria, there are certain common documents required for all kinds of Arkansas assistance for single moms. You should keep your pay stubs and rental agreements safely so that source of income can be verified and address too. Mortgage statements are also an important document when seeking some type of financial help for single mothers in Arkansas.
The first dilemma in form of single mothers is their child and employment. Both are important but due to a lack of support from all aspects including financial, most women sacrifice one for the other. However, there are very specific child care grants for single mothers in Arkansas that allow them to work full time and also afford childcare. All those mothers who are either full time students or may be working for more than 30 hours in week in order to run a household are eligible for federal aids. These financial aids are given after a thorough review of the situation and verification of income.
Single mothers are reasonable for the overall well being of their child alone and health is on the top of the list of worries. Healthcare is getting expensive by the day and if help for single mothers in Arkansas in the form of wonderful schemes like the ARKids First did not exist then the parent would have a really hard time raining a healthy child. The state sponsors this program on its own for the benefit of the children in Arkansas. This is ideal for all low income families and that plan is known as ARKids A MediAid and the other one meant for high income families is known as ARKids B.
Now, moving on to housing assistance for single mothers in Arkansas; there is a fantastic aid in the form of WIC program to look after the food and housing needs. The eligibility for this is that; the income of the entire household must not be above 185% of the poverty level and the person must be a resident of the state of Arkansas. In addition to this the children should be between the ages of 0 to 5. An exam will be conducted by the nurse on duty or any other medical professional to determine the eligibility for the assistance for single mothers in Arkansas. In order to determine whether a person is eligible for an aid or not, various factors such as income, family members and the living expenses are taken into account.
