German Parliament approves Patriots for Turkey
Berlin: The German Parliament has approved the deployment of Patriot air defence missiles to Turkey to protect its NATO ally against possible spillover from Syria`s civil war.
Lawmakers voted 461-86 today to approve the deployment of two Patriot missile batteries. The mandate allows Germany to deploy a maximum 400 soldiers through January 2014.
The Netherlands and the US also will provide two batteries each of the US-built air defence systems.
German officials have stressed that the mission is purely defensive and aimed solely at protecting Turkey. They say plans call for the missiles to be stationed at Kahramanmaras, about 100 kilometers from the Syrian border.
German military deployments abroad require parliamentary approval, typically granted on an annual basis.

5 Questions to Consider When Moving to a Home Office
My husband and I are in the midst of moving our business and transitioning our traditional office space to a home office. Basically, we weighed the pros and cons (and ultimately the costs) of retaining our leased space and it just makes the most sense to move our operation home. As a result, I am learning some important lessons that might help others as they consider whether a work from home option would work for them. Here are five questions to answer before moving your business home.
1. Do you have the technology resources needed to accommodate your business?
Our business needs an internet connection, dedicated fax line, and at least two phone lines (that can roll over to the next line should the first be busy). In addition, and most importantly, we have to keep our two toll-free numbers. The toll-free numbers were the deal breakers! Our business has legacy (we have been in business for 73 years), so changing the numbers would have adverse effects on our customers' ability to reach us. Facilitating these changes at our home was harder than it might seem and ended up being the most complex part of our move.
I'd recommend you map out what you must have, and then call up your local provider to talk over the options. Depending on your provider and the area you live in, there may be some services that are not available to residential customers that you cannot live without. Scope this out early in the process so you can determine whether or not the move is feasible. (more…)

(April 8, 2010)--On any given first Wednesday morning of the month, if you start early and travel to Mendez Cafe on Bartholomew near Quintana Road, you will find a patriotic group of American workers, now retired, enjoying breakfast tacos and talking about old times.
On average there are 20 men who gather, all ex-Kelly Air Force Base employees who represent a combined 600 years of military aircraft maintenance experience.
And still, even though Kelly closed on July 13, 2001, these individuals continue to give back to the community they served because of an endowed scholarship fund at UTSA.
According to Larry Cheever, the former base chief financial officer and now designated spokesperson for the group, for the last 25 years of Kelly's existence, a group of managers and supervisors established and maintained a Kelly AFB chapter of the U.S. Department of Defense Federal Managers Association. The FMA is a non-union employee group that advocates to Congress on behalf of its members to improve government operations. The local chapters support member management training, leadership opportunities and community service.
"When the base closed, we had some funds left over, but rather than throw a big party, we took the approximate $35,000 and established the Federal Managers Association Kelly Air Force Base Endowed Scholarship Fund," said Cheever.
At UTSA, when an endowed scholarship is set up, the gift provides support in perpetuity. Just like dividends on a mutual fund account, each year a distribution is made to fund the student scholarship. Investment earnings above the dividend rate help the endowment value grow over time to keep pace with inflation and maintain spending power.
The Kelly Managers scholarship fund has awarded more than $18,000 in scholarships to UTSA students since it was established about 10 years ago, according to Benga Adeeko, UTSA director of endowment services and compliance. The investment value of the endowment as of February 2010 was $41,111.15.
When Cheever recently received a letter from UTSA President Ricardo Romo thanking the Kelly group for their continuing support of the university, his curiosity was piqued and he called UTSA to inquire about the fund.
"Once I heard how much good the scholarship fund has already done, I felt really proud of what we all did," said Cheever. "We still think a lot about Kelly and our motto 'God, family and country,' so it's nice to know that Kelly, though gone, is still making an impact for the good of San Antonio."
A revolution in cloud computing is underway, and Ravi Sandhu believes it will be much bigger than the PC and Internet revolutions that have already changed the way we live. Sandhu, director of the UTSA Institute for Cyber Security, says UTSA is taking a leadership role in tackling three fundamental cloud technology problems: how to build and operate the cloud, how to use it profitably for diverse applications and how to keep it secure.
Sandhu, the Lutcher Brown Distinguished Chair in Cyber Security in the College of Sciences, and Ram Krishnan, assistant professor of electrical engineering in the UTSA College of Engineering, are funded by a $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to improve cloud security.
Did you know? Sandhu, a world-renowned cybersecurity expert, holds 30 patents, has authored more than 250 papers and been cited more than 30,000 times.

Creative Assembly will be releasing a new trailer for its upcoming Total War: Warhammer later this week. In the meantime, the studio is releasing a series of videos that highlights some of the creatures from the game. First up, the mighty demigryph.
The clip below provides a nicely detailed look at the beast, via test animations, sketches, and developer narration. The idea of an eagle/lion hybrid may not be any less silly, but you may gain a greater appreciation for why it might have such a fearsome reputation.

Next weekend should be a great one for beer fans. Rapid City's Main Street Square will host its second annual Bierborse on Saturday, and Deadwood's Oktoberfest celebration is planned for Friday and Saturday.
If all the beer festivities put you in the mood to try brewing your own, you're in luck. Veteran homebrewer Les Heard has just opened Black Hills Homebrew Supply in Black Hawk.
He'll carry brewing supplies for beginners as well as ingredients that will appeal to longtime brewmasters. He also plans to offer a "brewing hotline" to answer any questions you might have mid-batch.

Three-dimensional rogue waves by random media go through obstacles
Formerly considered a myth, the sudden formation of giant waves in a sea of low amplitude wavelets is nowadays an important subject of interdisciplinary research. These "rogue waves" (RW) are studied in different contexts, and their understanding is a challenge characterized by an intense discussion and a number of potential applications.
It is commonly accepted that the physics underlying the generation of giant oceanic RW is different from that of usual waves and that the triggering mechanism of RWs is not unique: linear effects (such as the focusing of independent wave trains) as well as the nonlinear amplification of noise may produce RWs.
In a paper published in Applied Physics Letters, Marco Leonetti and Claudio Conti use a spatial light modulator (SLM) to explore the possible speckle configurations generated by a random medium to generate and control a three-dimensional rogue wave.
They demonstrate that the SLM allows to select among all the possible realizations, the RW located at a user defined position in the shadow of the nearly totally reflecting obstacle. Moreover, by tuning the properties of the speckle pattern, the localization along the propagation axis can be controlled.
The picture below show the three-dimensional reconstruction of the observed rogue-wave.

Relativistic analogue in non-paraxial shock waves
Shock generation and wave-breaking are effects largely investigated in nonlinear optics. They are always occurring in extreme regimes with a variety of fundamental physical implications, and a number of applications, ranging from particle and material manipulation, to supercontinuum and X-ray generation.
In nonlinear optics, one studies shocks in space and time. Concerning the spatial case, shock waves are observed as highly irregular wave-fronts that originate upon the propagation of a smooth Gaussian beam in a strongly nonlinear medium like, for example, a thermal liquid.
So far, the analysis of spatial shock waves has been limited by the paraxial approximation. The validity of this approximation, however, is questioned by the large spatial bandwidth that is observed at the shock formation.
In a manuscript published in Optics Communications (arXiv:1412.8602) Silvia Gentilini, Eugenio Del Re and Claudio Conti study theoretically and computationally the effects of the non-paraxial regime on the shocks. The result is a predicted correction to the maximal spatial bandwidth after the shock generation, which is within experimentally measurable values, and which is also relevant for temporal shock waves.
The analysis is fascinating, as it shows that non-paraxial terms can be mapped to the relativistic corrections that occur when one considers the propagation of particles with velocity comparable with the speed of light. In other words, the mathematical treatment of the non-paraxial shock is analogue to the treatment of the relativistic particle motion. The trajectories of the particles corresponds to the so-called characteristic lines.
This problem is also relevant for mathematical investigations concerning wave-breaking in high-order nonlinear partial differential equations.
The picture below shows an example of the calculation of the relativistic shock wave front.

Optomechanics of random media: towards Photonic Robots
The Brownian motion of photons in a random medium induces a Brownian motion of the medium.
Anderson localization of light enhances the optomechanical interaction.
These effects are considered in a manuscript, by Silvia Gentilini and Claudio Conti, based on massively parallel numerical solutions of the Maxwell equations for random media. The goal is designing micron-sized structured devices that are activated by light and perform a prescribed motion. Understanding the role of light scattering is pivotal in the realization of "Photonic Robots."

via Frank Seravalli of Frequent Flyers,
Ilya Bryzgalov was limping for a reason in the Flyers' locker room on Monday night.
And it wasn't because of the Flyers' crushing loss to Tampa Bay.
The Flyers announced on Tuesday afternoon that Bryzgalov has a chip fracture in his right foot. According to general manager Paul Holmgren, the injury does not appear to be serious.
Bryzgalov is day-to-day. His availability for this weekend's games in unknown.

U.S.-based Dallara IndyCar simulator under construction
Mar 10, 2014, 3:38 PM EDT
Last summer, NBCSN's Jan Beekhuis gave viewers a look inside Dallara's Italian headquarters, which includes a state-of-the-art simulator used regularly by IndyCar Series teams.
But now, a second simulator is being constructed at the IndyCar chassis manufacturer's outpost in Speedway, Indiana, a stone's throw from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
According to the series, the American simulator will be fully operational by the end of April, just in time for the Indianapolis 500. However, it already has the reconfigured IMS road course – site for the inaugural Grand Prix of Indianapolis on May 10 – available for teams to test out potential set-ups for that race.
Per Dallara testing manager Alessandro Moroni, both the American and Italian simulators will be linked together, although newer technology will make the American one more powerful. The simulator figures to be primarily used for racing purposes, but Dallara hopes to use it for other means as well.
"Automotive and tire manufacturers – any kind of simulation," Dallara USA CEO Stefano DePonti told IndyCar.com. "I also have in mind simulations with police departments for training, such as car chases.
"…You can test a new component with accuracy and less expense than real testing. You get aware by using the simulator; if I use it for this, maybe I can use it for this other aspect."
Last May, a $1.15 million grant from the Indiana Economic Development Corporation was given to the motorsports engineering program at the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology inside Indiana University Purdue University-Indianapolis.
The school has a research partnership with Dallara, and through that grant, funding was found to create and operate the new simulator.

Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 8/14/13
The Yankees have scored 25 runs in its last two games, and one man has driven in 13 of them. Alfonso Soriano has been on an absolute tear for the streaking Bronx Bombers, following up a six-RBI performance on Tuesday by driving in seven runs on two homers and a double Wednesday night as New York routed the Angels by a combined score of 25-10. Soriano has been far from an offensive dynamo since returning to the Yankees last month — he entered Tuesday hitting just .196 in pinstripes — but his five home runs since being traded from the Cubs already rank seventh among all Yankees hitters. Check out the show Soriano put on Wednesday in the video below. Filed under: Headlines, MLB, New York Yankees, Video Non-NESN, Zack Cox

Iran says makes new proposal in nuclear talks, West unimpressed
VIENNA (Reuters) – Iran has offered "constructive solutions" to resolve disputes in nuclear talks with six major powers, the Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA) reported on Wednesday, but Western officials suggested they had heard nothing new from Tehran.
Iran and the powers are in the last stretch of talks to reach a final agreement to end a more than 12-year standoff over Iran's nuclear program. The aim is to lift sanctions in exchange for at least a decade of curbs on the program.
Iran nuclear talks extended, source says 48 hours left for deal
VIENNA, July 7 (Reuters) – Iran and major powers gave
themselves at least until Friday to negotiate an agreement on
the Iranian nuclear program, but a source from one of the powers
said on Tuesday they had to wrap up in the next 48 hours.
"We are continuing to negotiate for the next couple of
days," EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said outside
the hotel where the marathon talks between Iran, Britain, China,
France, Germany, Russia and the United States are taking place.
Six powers and Iran to continue nuclear talks past deadline: EU
VIENNA (Reuters) – Iran and six major powers will keep negotiating past Tuesday's deadline for a long-term nuclear agreement as they tackle the most contentious issues, including the continuation of a U.N. arms embargo on Iran, the big powers said.
"We are continuing to negotiate for the next couple of days. This does not mean we are extending our deadline," EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said outside the hotel where the talks between Iran, Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States are taking place.
Kerry urges Iran to make "hard choices", says US ready to walk
VIENNA, July 5 (Reuters) – An Iranian nuclear agreement is
possible this week if Iran makes the "hard choices" necessary,
but if not, the United States remains ready to walk away from
the negotiations, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on
Speaking after his third meeting of the day with Iranian
Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, Kerry said they had made
"genuine progress" in talks over the last few days but "several
of the most difficult issues" remain.
Kerry, Zarif meet as Tuesday's Iran nuclear deadline approaches
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The top U.S. and Iranian diplomats met for a sixth consecutive day on Sunday to try to resolve obstacles to a nuclear accord, including when Iran would get sanctions relief and what advanced research and development it may pursue.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif are trying to meet a Tuesday deadline for a final deal under which Iran would curb its atomic work for more than a decade in exchange for sanctions relief.
Ministers convene at Iran talks but breakthrough not yet seen
VIENNA (Reuters) – Nuclear talks between Tehran and world powers had yet to reach a breakthrough as they continued in overtime on Thursday, and Western officials said the latest "red lines" by Iran's supreme leader had made it hard to settle disputes on key issues.
Iran is in talks with the United States and five other big powers – Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia – on an agreement under which Tehran would curtail its nuclear program in exchange for relief from economic sanctions.
Iran talks are not near breakthrough yet, Britain's Hammond
VIENNA (Reuters) – Nuclear talks between Iran and six major powers are not near a breakthrough yet and foreign ministers will come and go to try to maintain momentum toward a deal, British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said on Thursday.
Iran is in talks with the United States and five other big powers, Britain, China, France, Germany and the United States, on an agreement under which Tehran would curtail its nuclear program in exchange for relief from economic sanctions.
Iraq, North Korea failures shadow nuclear talks with Iran
VIENNA (Reuters) – Their inability to detect clandestine atomic programs in Iraq and North Korea shadows Western officials as they seek to curb Iran's known nuclear activities and keep it from pursuing others in secret.
Closing loopholes in the current nonproliferation system is a key aim for the United States and its five big power partners as they negotiate an agreement with Iran to constrain its nuclear program in return for relief from economic sanctions.
U.S. says absurd to suggest that it will cave in Iran talks
VIENNA (Reuters) – The United States on Monday rejected criticism that world powers negotiating with Iran have been making too many compromises in nuclear talks with Iran, saying it hoped to get a good agreement but was not certain that was achievable.
The official had been asked to respond to public criticism of the U.S. delegation in the talks and suggestions that the administration of President Barack Obama has been making too many concessions out of desperation to do a deal.
Western officials suggest Iran tries to wiggle out of nuclear pledges
VIENNA (Reuters) – Iran is backtracking from an interim nuclear agreement with world powers three months ago, Western officials suggested on Sunday, as U.S. and Iranian officials said talks on a final accord would likely run past a June 30 deadline.
Securing an historic agreement would end a more than 12-year nuclear standoff between Iran and the West and open the door to suspending sanctions that have crippled Tehran's economy. It could also help ease the diplomatic isolation for an Iran that has become increasingly assertive across the region.

This is awesome. I made it with an undrained can of rotel instead of a chopped tomato based on another review, and it was great. It was all eaten up very quickly and everyone wanted the recipe.
This is great and the leftovers are even better. I used the leftovers in a wrap with some chicken. Yum
Two of my favorite foods, black beans and corn, together! I can't wait to make this for dinner.
Very good and so easy to put together. I will make this often in the summer to go along our grilled meats....yummy. Thank you for posting.
Great flavorful and easy recipe. I did add one jalapeno -- which I thought added just enough kick and texture. Thanks Kathy -- will definitely make it again soon.
GREAT blend of flavors!
quick and easy and very tasty. My husband LOVED it and its he is not a black bean fan.
I made this without the onion or cilantro for a quickie side dish with Broccoli Cornbread Casserole. Since I didn't make the whole recipe, I won't put a star rating, but this went over well with the kids, and went well with the cornbread. I used frozen corn instead of canned, since that was all I had in the house. Very nice, simple recipe!
Great and simple. I added a clove of finely minced garlic and substituted a Tbsp of lime juice for one of the three Tbsp of lemon juice to give it a little more depth of flavor. Delicious!
Great side dish or in-between snack for WW core members. Very easy and also looks good to serve for company.

2nd year CASH PRIZE league
Hi guys I am trying to get another league back together for this year since we had such a great year of racing in 2012. The entry fee will be $15, and the prizes will be determined by the amount of people we get. But to get an idea we had 7 people last year and the segment winner got $25 & the overall champion got $35. Nobody will make their payment until I am sure we have enough people to have a competitive league. Thanks, Dave

International Maritime Organization (IMO) has approved improved shipbuilding standards aimed at passenger and cargoships.
The new construction rules, designed to increase a vessel's chance of surviving an accident, were agreed at the IMO's committee on stability and load lines headed by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (Amsa).
The new standards will go into effect in November and will apply to ships with keel laying after January 2009.
Among the new rules is one concerning lubricating-oil circulation tanks, which must be kept a minimum distance of 500 millimetres from the keel line of the vessel to prevent the oil escaping in the case of a grounding leading to engine failure.
Guidelines for the crew will also advise on how to ensure a vessel survives in an accident. Explanatory notes for shipyards and designers are now being drawn up and will be included in a revision of the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) convention, available from classification societies.

Hymns on Paradise
St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, 1990 - Religion - 240 pages
St Ephrem the Syrian's cycle of fifteen hymns on paradise offers a fine example of Christian poetry, in which the author weaves a profound theological synthesis around a particular Biblical narrative. Centered on Genesis 2 and 3, he expresses his awareness of the sacramental character of the created world, and of the potential of everything in the created world to act as a witness and pointer to the creator. God's two witnesses, says Ephrem, are: 'Nature, through man's use of it, [and] Scripture, through his reading it." In his writing, Ephrem posits an inherent link between the material and spiritual worlds. St Ephrem's mode of theological discussion is essentially Biblical and Semitic in character. He uses types and symbols to express connections or relationships to 'reveal' something that is otherwise 'hidden,' particularly expressing meanings between the Old Testament and the New, between this world and the heavenly, between the New Testament and the sacraments, and between the sacraments and the eschaton. His theology is not tied to a particular cultural or philosophical background, but operates by means of imagery and symbolism basic to all human experience.

WASHINGTON, DC -- (Marketwire) -- 01/10/11 -- Smartronix is proud to announce its support of the launch of the new Treasury.gov web site and the migration of four other Treasury websites (SIGTARP.gov, MyMoney.gov, TIGTA.gov, and IRSOversightBoard.treasury.gov) to Amazon Web Services (AWS). This marks the first time a cabinet level agency has moved its web sites to AWS.
The Treasury.gov re-design contract was awarded to Smartronix in June of 2010. Team Smartronix, which consists of Smartronix, Synteractive, TMP Government, and KPMG, with close collaboration from Microsoft and AWS, also developed the successful Recovery.gov 2.0 web site released last year. The team brings together visionary and creative industry experts in SharePoint, cloud computing, Web design, transparency, Open Government data, social collaboration, and emerging Web technologies.
"We are excited to be part of this redesign of Treasury's primary web presence," stated Smartronix CTO Robert Groat. "This site ushers in an era of new capabilities for Treasury and meets several of the Administration's mandates for use of cloud computing and Web 2.0 technologies."
"Amazon Web Services is proud to be the backbone for this strategic initiative at the US Treasury Department. It demonstrates a trend toward innovation in ways Government agencies are reducing costs and optimizing their IT services. Our work with the Smartronix team enables Treasury.gov to expand its cloud computing footprint and meet federal communication and publishing mandates by migrating additional Treasury websites to the AWS cloud," said Teresa Carlson, Vice President Global Public Sector, Amazon Web Services. "AWS provides a highly scalable computing infrastructure that enables organizations around the world to requisition compute power, storage, and other on-demand services in the cloud. We look forward to continue working with the Federal government as agencies look to improve technology efficiencies, save money and comply with the Federal Cloud First Initiative."
The new site supports the communications, publishing requirements, and strategic initiatives of the Department of the Treasury and provides increased access to Treasury resources and assets. Developed on a Microsoft SharePoint 2010 platform, running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), and accelerated by the Akamai Content Delivery Network, the new Treasury.gov takes advantage of a powerful, secure infrastructure and a flexible enterprise search and content management system.
The solution provides a robust workflow and collaboration capability that empowers over a hundred Treasury content owners to make updates at the individual office level as opposed to relying on a centralized departmental web team. This marks a significant departure from the previous content management process. This delegation of content ownership enables Treasury to provide more timely and relevant information to its constituents.
The platform also enables advanced dynamic data visualizations based on the Open Data Protocol (OData) to further the way that vital data is shared across the agency and its constituency.
"The new Treasury capabilities are a shining example of how SharePoint 2010 can be leveraged to meet the web site requirements of large Agencies. This is the largest SharePoint 2010 implementation in the federal government and makes use of several powerful new features," stated Dean Halstead of Microsoft who was instrumental in providing site feedback throughout the design process. Dean also noted that the cloud based infrastructure uses several other Microsoft technologies including Systems Center Operations Manager, Data Protection Manager, Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008, and various security solutions.
Groat states, "We recognized that Treasury could substantially benefit from the new metadata services in SharePoint 2010. Treasury has tens of thousands of pages and files. By using the metadata features we are able to dynamically display relevant content on pages throughout the site. The content tagging not only improves page relevance but also enables more robust search and filtering capabilities."
Built with a unique, user-centric approach, the new Treasury.gov has the modern capabilities expected in such a critical, public-facing Web channel and allows the agency to better communicate with the public in a more open and transparent manner. New capabilities include integration with social networking tools such as Facebook, Flickr, YouTube, and Twitter. The site also introduces Web 2.0 capabilities, faceted search, and multi-media resources. Visitors can more easily find information of interest to them as opposed to sifting through data presented according to a non-intuitive organizational structure. This site also marks the first time that the Treasury department has published a blog -- cleverly named "Treasury Notes."
Smartronix chose Akamai's Content Delivery Network to accelerate the performance of the site and help protect against DDoS attacks. Smartronix lead security architect, Anthony Vultaggio, stated that the Akamai SiteShield service provided significant capabilities in being able to cloak the cloud infrastructure from direct public access. Tom Ruff, VP of Akamai's Public Sector confirmed, "The new Treasury.gov and several other websites hosted on the Treasury Community Cloud architecture are benefiting from the advanced Akamai capabilities. We think this is a viable blueprint for Agencies looking to host a secure, scalable web presence in the cloud."
"The new Treasury.gov website is a major step forward in our efforts to improve the way citizens access the wealth of data and information Treasury produces on a day-to-day basis," said Dan Tangherlini, Treasury Assistant Secretary for Management, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Performance Officer.
"Treasury's decision to move its flagship site to a public cloud infrastructure reflects the Administration's commitment to closing the IT gap between the public and private sectors by leveraging the power of technology," said Vivek Kundra, Federal Chief Information Officer. "Use of cloud computing increases cost effectiveness, improves efficiency and provides greater flexibility, as the private industry sector has proven. This is exactly the kind of game-changing technology required to do more with less."

Meatball therapy in the Ninth Ward
class=img_thumbleft>Hundreds of Minnesotans have gone down to New Orleans over the past year and a half to gut houses and otherwise help out in the flood-ravaged Ninth Ward---most volunteering through their church or synagogue. Now the private sector is pitching in: Last weekend, 30 construction workers from Minnesota companies flew to the city under the leadership of the Twin Cities-based River of Hope. Created last year by Red Cross therapist Dr. Rebecca Thomley, and funded in part out of savings from the nonprofit she heads, Orion Associates, the organization has brought some 300 plumbers and roofers to work on more than 35 homes for the poor and elderly. Thomley, whose Red Cross truck was among the first into the city in October 2005, has since returned seven times. Last year she put Sen. Mark Dayton to work. "Whatever criticism you might have of him," she says. "He worked hard."
Two months ago, River of Hope opened a mental health center in a gutted dry cleaner in the Upper Ninth Ward, open Saturdays with volunteers flying in every weekend--Thomley warns new recruits about the rats. Most of those walking-in just need to be heard. "Services have not been restored to this area, and there's certainly a feeling of having been forgotten," says Thomley. "The government is not there, and these are our people, these are Americans." Volunteers can call Zenith Services at 763.450.5000.

A Home & Schooling for Orphaned Girls in India
Roll over image to zoom in
Provide a home and education for India's most vulnerable children — orphaned girls.
With over three times the population of the United States and only one-third of the space, India faces many unique challenges, including an estimated 18 million street children. Over half of the children in India are malnourished, and this proportion is much higher for children living on the streets.
The Hindi words for child and donation, Baal Dan provides many of these children with safe housing and quality education. With a hands-on approach, Baal Dan's volunteer staff personally visits orphanages throughout India, where they carefully select the very best environments for orphans and street children. When they can't find such a place, Baal Dan helps develop new facilities, including schools, libraries, and orphanages.
By working with grassroots partners, Baal Dan can identify and resolve their most critical needs, guaranteeing individually tailored project goals while effectively distributing limited resources and minimizing overhead. For example, just $20,000 can support sixteen girls and staff for an entire year. This covers all expenses, including shelter costs, medical care, nutritious food, and quality education.
This means you can help by sponsoring an orphaned child for one week for just $24.
Report from the Field
An Enduring Partnership
July 2015
"Baal Dan's partnership with GreaterGood has evolved over time. In 2007, GreaterGood grants were used to provide funding for schoolgirls and orphans in Calcutta. The grants helped fund school fees, uniforms, books and meals for children who lived in unimaginable poverty. Now in 2015, these girls are older, well educated and on their way to bright futures.
When Baal Dan expanded outside of India to support grassroots projects in places like Haiti and Honduras, GreaterGood was there to support us. GreaterGood's generous donors continue to help provide education and food to kids in developing countries around the world.
Sincere thanks from Baal Dan to GreaterGood, and we wish this organization so much success for years to come." —Tanya Pinto, Executive Director, Baal Dan.
Inside the Bachpan Girls Home
Baal Dan Charities was formed to support the basic needs and social welfare of impoverished children (mostly orphans and street children) in India, and to promote their welfare. Since 2006, Baal Dan has provided aid to over 3,000 children through grants made to a coalition of grassroots partners such as orphanages and NGOs that are focused on orphans, street children, and impoverished children (including refugees).
