The Spirituals Project Choir in Concert
The Spirituals Project Has a New Home and New Leadership
The Light of Home
Award-Winning Organization Joins the University of Denver's
Lamont School of Music
M. Roger Holland,II Arthur C. Jones
July 11, 2016 - DENVER – Lamont School of Music director Nancy Cochran and The Spirituals Project founder and Chair Emeritus Arthur C. Jones have announced that The Spirituals Project will be moving to the Robert and Judi Newman Center for the Performing Arts where the award-winning organization will become part of the University of Denver's nationally known music performance school.
In making the announcement, Director Cochran commented, "We are delighted to have the Spirituals Project become a part of the Lamont School of Music. It will serve to increase our outreach into the community and enhance our ongoing initiatives to expand the horizons of our students and faculty."
This September, Arthur C. Jones will join the Lamont School of Music faculty after serving as chair of the Spirituals Project board, as a clinical professor in the university's Psychology Department for 18 years, and subsequently as a clinical professor and associate dean at DU's Colorado Women's College for seven years. "I am thrilled by this development which advances substantially the University of Denver's
commitment to diversity, inclusion and community engagement," Jones said. "This also ensures the long-term sustainability of The Spirituals Project, which is one of Denver's treasured cultural resources," Dr. Jones has presented solo concerts, lectures and workshops on spirituals throughout the United States, and he is the author of the award-winning book, Wade in the Water: The Wisdom of the Spirituals, now in its third edition.
Current Spirituals Project director Daryl J. Walker will turn over leadership of the Project to M. Roger Holland, II who was recently selected after a nationwide search and will also join the Lamont faculty.
Holland is a graduate of Union Theological Seminary in New York City where he received the master of divinity degree and served as Artist-in-Residence and director of the seminary Gospel Choir for more than 13 years. He received a master's degree in piano performance from the Manhattan School of Music and completed his undergraduate work at Westminster Choir College in Princeton, New Jersey where he majored in music education with a concentration in piano and voice. While at Westminster he founded and conducted a student group called The Collegiate Ensemble with a repertoire that included gospel music and spirituals. He has toured nationally and internationally with The Boys Choir of Harlem and has worked with them as a conductor, pianist, instructor, arranger, and as former Director of Artistic Education for their school.
In 1998, The Spirituals Project was founded by Jones to preserve and revitalize the music and teachings of the sacred folk songs called "spirituals," created and first sung by African Americans in slavery. The Spirituals Project is a past recipient of the Denver Mayor's Award for Excellence in the Arts. The Project has presented a wide variety of high profile musical and educational programs over the years, including a national conference on spirituals in 2013 featuring poet Nikki Giovanni as keynote speaker, and a historic concert in 2009 at Denver's Ellie Caulkins Opera House in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s 80th birthday featuring the renowned mezzo soprano Denyce Graves as guest artist.
With the official transition of The Spirituals Project to the University of Denver, the 30-voice, multi-ethnic Spirituals Project Choir will present concerts in the Newman Center's June Swaner Gates Concert Hall, in a variety of community venues, and will continue to present educational programs regionally and nationally.

United Way organizers said that 98.8 percent of the donations are returned to the local community — through non-profit organizations. This year, the allocations committee has selected the following agencies to which to allocate funds: Adult Literacy Council; American Red Cross; Boy Scouts of America; Bulverde Public Library; Bulverde Senior Center; Bulverde/Spring Branch Community Service Center, Canyon Lake Action Center, Caring for Children; CASA of Central Texas; Comal County 4-H; Comal County Child Welfare Board; Comal County Emergency Children's Shelter, Comal County Senior Citizens Center, Comal County Women's Center; Comal County'Youth Homemaking; Comal County Youth Livestock Show; Communities in Schools of Comal County, Inc.; Community Council of South Central Texas; Community Service Center; Crisis Line Drug Dependency Council; Family Outreach of Comal County; Hill Country Mental Health and Mental Retardation Services; Homespun; Lone Star Girl Scout Council; Retired Senior Volunteer Program; Salvation Army; SOS, Inc.—Food Bank; Teen Connection; Tye Preston Memorial Library; YMCA of San Antonio and the Hill Country. Jail From Page 1 million for a 16,000-square-foot expansion at $135 per square foot. That would cost the county between $24,000 to $25,000 per inmate. Fletcher's plan called for a linear corridor in which two to six 24-capacity dorm rooms would be built along the corridor. This would require officers to walk along the corridor to watch inmates. The plan also called for expansion Quilts of the 48-bed work release weekend dormitory facility; converted single cells to 16 separation cells; and expanded the medical area, dispatch area, kitchen, administration area, jail uniform area and evidence storage room. A new laundry and exercise room would be added. Expansion of the 24-capacity dorms would be added in increments of 96, 144 and 192 beds. "Our concept is to add the most beds possible for the least amount of dollars," Fletcher said. The price tag for a 96-bed addition would be $3.1 million, 144 beds, $3.8 million; 192 beds, $4.6 million. Since the linear design is already used in the current jail, it should stay the same, Fletcher said. "It doesn't make sense to have two management approaches in the same jail," Fletcher said. "The guard has to learn and operate two different ways." Commissioner Jack Dawson favored BSA's plan since it would Cost the county only $15,000 per inmate compared to Gorideck's plan. Dawson said BSA's plan would allow the jail to operate without any major hitches. "The existing structure and operations will not be interrupted by the expansion," Dawson said. Commissioner Danny Sc heel said BSA's plan would require the county to hire less officers. "The modular expansion would require two employees," Scheel said. "One at the control site and the other at the hall. You would have two at the control site then have one per 48 prisoners. So that would require four employees whereas the linear expansion system we would Trave a guy at the control panel and only be required to have one guy at the hall." Commissioners will choose an architect at their Thursday meeting at 8:15 a.m. at the county courthouse annex in the Commissioners Courtroom annex.

First State Bank of Austin branch manager Victor Aceves said he got to know Sing and her work after providing banking services at the retirement center. Aceves said he promised the seniors if they made IOO ugly quilts, the bank would throw them a cake and punch party. ''We talked to them every Thursday and talked to them about the quilts," Aceves said. "We are now getting involved in distributing them through town." When the quilts reach their destination, Sing said she would feel that she has accomplished something significant. "We would feel a connection to the users," Sing said.

Oil and Gas Exploration
Prince Edward Island, located on the east coast of Canada in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, lies on a large sedimentary basin that may have significant reservoirs of natural gas. In fact, exploration activities have identified the existence of these potential reservoirs, including a significant discovery made offshore in East Point, PEI. However, Prince Edward Island's hydrocarbon potential has yet to be fully assessed as, to date, only twenty exploratory wells and one re-entry well have been drilled on and around the province.
Petroleum and natural gas are found in, or associated with, sedimentary source rocks which, as newly deposited sediments, contained an abundance of animal or plant remains. The source potential of carboniferous rocks in the Gulf of St.Lawrence area is of particular interest to Prince Edward Island because of wide-spread distribution of these rocks at drillable depths, both onshore and offshore.
Specifically, PEI is underlain entirely by rocks correlative with those of the Pictou Group of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. On the Island, these deposits of sandstones, shales and conglomerates are informally termed the "Prince Edward Island Redbeds." Understanding of the surface and subsurface geology of the Prince Edward Island Redbeds may be enhanced by reading Geology of Prince Edward Island by H.W. van de Poll.
The direct evidence of the hydrocarbon potential of carboniferous rocks on and around Prince Edward Island is the H.B.-Fina East Point E-49 well drilled off the province's eastern shore in 1970. This well had gas shows in sandstones that are closely associated with coal beds which are age equivalents of the Pictou Coalfield occurrences in Nova Scotia. Additionally, the Horton Group of carboniferous sandstone which underlies the Pictou formation has yielded both oil and gas in the neighbouring Maritime provinces. The continental origin of the sediments underlying Prince Edward Islands suggests that the region should be considered mainly for its natural gas potential as the possibilities for petroleum discovery are comparatively low.
To be recoverable, hydrocarbons must migrate and move into porous reservoir rocks where they concentrate and may be withdrawn through drilled holes. Both the porosity and permeability of the PEI Redbeds make them generally good reservoir rocks. Cementation is variable, however, and porosity decreases with depth.
The migration of hydrocarbons under pressure continues within the reservoir rock until some substance barrier or "trap" is encountered. There are a variety of types and shapes of traps but they all possess a common element in that further migration of the hydrocarbons is prevented by an overlying impermeable structure. Prince Edward Island is characterized by structural traps within the Pictou Group which result from folding, faulting or a combination of both of these processes. These traps are commonly associated with salt domes which are the result of the upward movement of salt masses under differential pressure. Other traps involve anticlinal structures which occur from an upward arching of rock strata.

We're less than two days out from the NHL trade deadline, and the rumours are continuing to heat up.
Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman and Damien Cox addressed many of the trade possibilities around the league during Saturday's Headlines segment on Hockey Night in Canada.
Here's what they said:
Loui Eriksson: Re-sign with Boston Bruins or be sold?
"Boston offered a three-year term at the start of negotiations, Eriksson asked for six," Friedman explained. "Boston moved to four this week.
"The agent and the team aren't talking, but what it sounds like is if the player wants to move back, the average annual value has to go up. There just isn't enough common ground. Big gap. Doesn't sound like there's a lot of optimism."
So if not Boston, then who?
"There a lot of teams calling about Eriksson," Friedman said, naming the Los Angeles Kings, Anaheim Ducks, Minnesota Wild, St. Louis Blues, Dallas Stars and potentially the Tampa Bay Lightning.
"Those same teams are probably after Mikkel Boedker as well."
What about Boedker to Boston?
"Boston could do a Boedker deal, too, if they end up losing out on Eriksson," said Friedman.
Rangers very interested in Eric Staal
"It could be his final home game [Sunday] against the Blues if he decides he wants to go," Friedman said of the Hurricanes captain. "You can expect the New York Rangers are going to make a big pitch for him."
At 31, Staal isn't the prolific scorer he once was, but with 10 goals and 33 points in 63 games, he could still help the Rangers down the middle. Staal will be an unrestricted free agent in July.
Players staying:
"The Rangers apparently told Keith Yandle he is not getting dealt," said Friedman.
Yandle, despite being in the last year of his contract before becoming UFA eligible, is still a very useful piece to the Rangers in their quest for the Stanley Cup. He has 35 points in 62 games this season, good for third on the team in scoring.
"One Penguin who won't be moving, their goaltending prospect Matt Murray. He is untouchable."
Murray, 21, was a third round pick (83rd overall) by the Penguins in 2012. He has a .931 save percentage in 31 AHL games this season and an impressive .938 mark in four NHL games.
Players going:
"Another veteran likely to go is Lee Stempniak of the New Jersey Devils by Monday," said Cox.
Jared Cowen: "He cleared waivers today, was loaned to the Marlies," said Cox. "He's not going there. Expect him to be traded, maybe to Chicago."
Friedman added that if Cowen does go to Chicago, it could be connected to a "salary deal" for Bryan Bickell.
Team to watch: Washington Capitals
"Now with John Carlson on injured reserve, it opens up the room for them to enter the market," explained Friedman. "They're going to have the flexibility to do some things."
Names in play include John-Michael Liles (Carolina Hurricanes) Dan Hamhuis (Vancouver Canucks) and Kris Russell (Calgary Flames).
Friedman noted that Hamhuis has also been linked to Boston and Dallas, while Cox added that Russell might have a potential suitor in the Pittsburgh Penguins.

English teen Tom Holland is Marvel's new 'Spider-Man'
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Little-known English actor Tom Holland has been picked to play the web-slinging superhero in the next "Spider-Man" film, which is due for release in July 2017, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios said on Tuesday.
Holland, 19, will play Spider-Man's teenage alter ego Peter Parker as a high-school age student in the upcoming, yet-to-be titled film.
He follows in the footsteps of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, who have portrayed the comic book superhero at older stages of his life in the five previous movies.
Holland played Naomi Watt's son in the 2012 tsunami drama "The Impossible" and recently appeared in the British television miniseries "Wolf Hall."
He was selected after a worldwide casting search to appear in the film that will be directed by Jon Watts."We saw many terrific young actors, but Tom's screen tests were special," Tom Rothman, the chairman of Sony Pictures Motion Pictures Group, said in a statement.
News of Holland's selection may disappoint some fans who had said they wanted a black actor to play Spider-Man for the upcoming film.
Walt Disney Co's Marvel Studios will co-produce the film with Sony. Under the agreement announced in February, Spider-Man will appear in the Marvel film, and Marvel characters, such as Iron Man, Thor and Captain America, can appear in later Spider-Man films.
Holland is expected to make his first appearance as Spider-Man in "Captain America: Civil War," which is due for release in summer 2016.
Sony Pictures Entertainment, a division of Sony Corp, will continue to own the cinematic rights to Spider-Man. Continued...

So many things didn't make sense. Too many equations didn't tie themselves up into a nice, neat bow.
The city of gold and jewels around him was real, stark, and unapologetically everywhere. Why, in his own bedchamber that night, the Rambling Man could scarcely sleep a wink due to the constant dazzling reflections of the setting sun upon his bedroom walls. Such pizazz and spectacle would tire very quickly, the Rambling Man thought to himself. Gold and jewels and precious metals are wonderful and exotic in fleeting amounts; an entire city built upon the stuff makes them commonplace and dull. What he would give to sleep in a normal room of brick and mortar that night...
Copper. Silver. Gold. Devised and built by rulers of the sea to separate each from the other, and to surround themselves with their own fantasies. The Prince: surrounded by beautiful men and woman and many precious things; the Queen: surrounded by mystery and darkness and foreboding; and the King: surrounded by... by what? Abandonment? Isolation? Memories, perhaps?
Furthermore, the King of the Sea knew Old Man Durward, who had been, up until recently, nothing but a specter and memories trapped in a box. How long ago had the Queen taken the life of that sailor? Had he and the King been friends before his execution or had it been during his phantasmal appearances, communing with the Sea King on his remote island?
And now, the Princess herself: alive, well, and no longer brooding on her past. What was the meaning for her stark change? What reason was behind this new mindset? Was she cured of her dark mood in this place?
Not that her brighter spirits would be a bad thing, the Rambling Man reasoned quickly as he lay in the glittering moonlight. But this change in her was an anomaly: a curiosity, such as the entire adventure had proven to be thus far.
Nothing added up. Answers lay just as far beyond reach while more mysteries and riddles piled up. And paving the road to to these answers were yet more lies, this time from his own lips. The mighty Golgareth, mighty Stone King of the mountains and ruler of the dwarven folk, did indeed exist as he had suggested--the dwarven king was likely resting well in his own bed chambers that night, completely unaware of these tall tales being spun about him. His words were merely a means to an end--and end, this time, for the King of the sea himself and his own riddles.
His woven tale, even for a master of the craft of story-weaving, would only distract the Prince for so long. He would test this tale, communing with his father the King of the sea, then travel northward to find this story so full of holes like a derelict rowboat on an abandoned shore. His time was limited.
And where, in all of this, had the Princess's mother, the Queen of their homeland, gotten herself off to?
What the Rambling Man needed was a palaver with the Princess herself, alone and unobstructed. In her, the Rambling Man hoped, would lie the answers to so many of his questions about this place and her curious behavior. A nation worried for her safety across the seas, and they needed to be assured of her health and good fortune. Most ideally, it would be the Princess herself returned to report on her own safe return.
The mere thought of meeting with the Princess in private reminded the Rambling Man very much so of their one prior meeting in secret--the very meeting that would eventually lead to all of this harrowing business and risk-taking.
He would speak with her. He would take the Princess back to her lands, taking from her the key around her neck to give to the King of the Seas along the way. Then all would return as normal and the Rambling Man would continue his journeying and lute-playing across all the lands, perhaps one day returning here to play.
His mind awash with these thoughts, sleep had been eluding the Rambling Man all night. So he slipped from his bed and crept from his room, passing the sleeping guards to seek out answers in the twilight halls of the golden palace.
The interior of the palace dazzled with precious metals and gemstones, even in the fleeting starlight filtering in from the outside windows. The sky was clear, and the weather fair, granting the Rambling Man greater visibility through the winding corridors.
He neared the great hall and heard a great commotion spilling into the halls surrounding. Even at this late hour, he saw that the citizens of this golden city were still drinking, still partying, and still carrying on as if without end. Were they truly so free of obligations that they could live like youths, doing as they liked without thought or regard to consequence? Were there no such consequences in this place? Was everything truly handed to them from the palms of the Sea Prince?
Peeking in through a doorway to avoid detection, the Rambling Man could see a great many people from the city, dressed in their elaborate gowns of glow and gold. They danced and laughed merrily, feasting endlessly from a great banquet and drawing from one of a dozen kegs near the far wall.
And there, as the Rambling Man searched the room whole, he saw the Sea Prince. He was sat upon his golden throne: head resting in his hand--his posture lax and drowsy. His eyelids drooped low as if weighted. Beside him as before was the Princess, just as she had been standing earlier. She stood awake and alert, staring placidly out at the shifting crowd. Her hair hung long and fair behind her, cascading like waves of sun-baked grain blown in a gentle wind. An intricately carved tiara of shimmering gold rested delicately upon her brow. A flowing gown of silk spread around her like a pristine cloud plucked down from the heavens to wrap her sensuous form.
The Rambling Man watched for a time, formulating and testing approaches in his mind, finding none satisfactory, when the Princess herself made his job easier. With a nod of her head to the drowsing Prince, she excused herself, leaving the hall through the back. Taking advantage of his luck, the Rambling Man pursued her through the halls, catching her as she turned a corner. Clasping her arm, he pulled her into an abandoned room and shut the door behind. It was a storage room, he noticed once inside, empty save for dusty candelabras and resting chandeliers. Cast over everything like a thick dust was the near palpable aura of moonlight, turning every mundane object into a shimmering spectacle of radiant silver.
"Princess!" cried the Rambling Man as they stood ethereal under the light of the moon. "I've searched high and low, crossing the seas and braving dangers, so that I may take you back to your homeland! Your father is concerned about your well-being, and so are your people. Come, let us get your mother and leave this place behind us!"
"Why?" came the Princess' single reply.
Her reply--so short, so simple--caught the Rambling Man dead in his tracks. He stood there a moment, groping for words. This he had not expected.
He looked down upon her beautiful face, masked in a spectre's glow from an out-worldly lamp, and saw her for the first time as she really was: clear-minded and strong-willed. Her eyes were clear as she looked upon the Rambling Man--but not into his eyes. Never up into his eyes. She turned instead to peer out the window, staring at a point in the sky a thousand miles distant. Her manner was as cold and distant to him as the moon above: brilliant in its radiance, but forever beyond reach.
"Why return?" asked the Rambling Man, incredulous. "It is your home. It is where you belong--where you, your mother, and your father rule the land in peace. Because of you, everyone in the land was happy and contented. But now in your absence they fret with worry, uncertain about the future. You must return for your people."
"I mustn't do a thing that I don't otherwise decide," scolded the Princess, looking resolutely forward at the moon. In return, it comforted her by bathing her flowing figure in its soothing light, striking elongated shadows behind into the room. "I have chosen to leave. I have left. That home is no home of mine any longer. I am here now."
"What of your father and your people?" inquired the Rambling Man.
"What of them?" raged the Princess, silent tears sparkling like diamonds upon her moon-touched cheeks. "I've left them--all of them! I've outrun my nightmares and my pain, and I've come here, to this place, where every day there is dancing and jubilation and plenty to share with everyone. No one demands anything of me here. No one takes advantage of me here. No one causes pain, or suffering, or turmoil. I've fled across the sea to outrun my nightmares, and now I see them all rush back to me, carried to my soul upon your lips and your tongue. So I shall not return with you, Rambling Man. Your journey to find me only allowed the memories you bring with you to return, memories I do not wish to have returned! Please leave now. Leave, and do not ever return to this place!
In a rush of emotion, the Princess ran into the shadows and fled the room, her composure undone and her tears flowing free. Feeling sick in his gut, the Rambling Man hung his head in shame: a failure. He stepped from the room--encountering the Sea Prince and an entourage of his guards. Each pointed deadly tridents at his face.
"You've shamed us with your presence, Rambling Man!" scorned the Sea Prince. "You brought with you lies about my father and succeeded only in tainting our sanctuary with your misery and filth. Your mere presence only disrupts my lovely fiancée!"
"Fiancée?" asked the Rambling Man, shocked. "You mean..."
"That's right," sneered the young Prince with a wicked grin. "She accepted my proposal of marriage after seeing what beautiful things I could offer her. I intend to give her nothing but a lifetime of happiness with her every desire fulfilled. Nothing to disturb her--nothing to torment her. We're to be wed in a mere week."
Chewing this over thoughtfully, the Rambling Man, his heart still heavy with shame, could only sigh and submit. "If that's what the Princess wishes."
"Indeed!" replied the Prince. "But your presence has disrupted all of this. I'll not hear of it any longer. For disturbing the Princess and her child, your punishment shall be most severe."
"Wait," cried out the Rambling Man, shocked. "What child?"
The Prince's prideful sneer slipped to the floor, leaving a suddenly sobered, suddenly apologetic and mournful expression in its wake. "'tis true," he replied with his voice melancholy. "The Lady Princess is with child."
Suddenly wrathful, the Rambling Man lashed out at him. "What type of man steals away the innocence of the Princess a mere week before your wedding? You fiend!"
"You don't understand," replied the Prince, his voice low and his eyes catching the Rambling Man's in their mournful gaze.
"She was already with child when she arrived here."

These obsessive viewers watch their top shows live and will both tweet commentary and do Internet research while they watch. For them, the water-cooler conversation happens as the show airs, and they swear they can follow the plot of Game of Thrones despite these distractions.
The appointment viewer. "Shhh. I'm watching."
These viewers watch live (or time-shift by a mere hour or two) but don't want to be distracted while they watch. No tweeting for them. On the other hand, they are often the best Monday-morning quarterbacks of the online TV clubs, busy discussing plot points and predicting future developments.
The time shifter. "Don't tell me what happened! Don't tell me what happened!"
Was it only five years ago that the PVR was the hot new gadget? Now, those who want to record shows and watch them at their leisure a few days later seem charmingly quaint. Their occasional complaints about spoilers are considered naive by groups one and two, who argue it isn't that hard to stay off social media if you would rather not know that Lane Pryce commits suicide in Mad Men episode 12.
The binge watcher. "Cliffhangers? I don't do cliffhangers."
Recognizable by their pale skin at the height of summer, these types will record, rent, buy or illegally download whole seasons and watch them just after they finished airing. These marathon viewers compare cable dramas to the best movies, and demand a different kind of instantaneity: They would rather wait a season to follow the dramatic arc of Breaking Bad in its entirety than wait a week for the next plot development. Netflix catered directly to them this winter when it provided all 13 episodes of its new political drama House of Cards simultaneously.
The pirate. "Why pay when you can get it for free?"
The most aggressive of the downloaders make a fetish of not paying, illegally torrenting any show they want from the Internet, often with commercials helpfully removed, as early as a few minutes after it has completed airing on TV.
For some, it's simply about saving money; but all demand efficiency and timeliness, refusing to wait until a broadcaster posts episodes with commercials on a website or until paid legal downloads are available at the end of the season. Another subcategory downloads foreign shows not yet available in North America, watching Downton Abbey, for example, as soon as it appears in Britain.Report Typo/Error

Nero is a waste of money! 02/14/2013
This review is from: Nero 12 Platinum
Burner software works, but then it is most likely the same software since version 8 that came out in 2008. All the other Kwik media stuff is an odd way of doing things and it just does not work right.
If you want to troubleshoot a program that has been out for at least a year buy this one.
Other Thoughts:
Their telephone support system is billed at 1.29 per minute. I assume by time you give the code and your address and describe the problem you will be out at least the cost of a different product. Their email system is send wait days, respond wait days.

Tension prevailed outside the busy Hall Gate here on Saturday morning when activists of various Hindu organisations staged a vociferous protest against the recent Baltal clashes wherein some Amarnath pilgrims were injured.
The protesters raised slogans against the Jammu and Kashmir government and chief minister Omar Abdullah for allegedly failing to ensure the safety of pilgrims during the Amarnath Yatra.
The agitators alleged that the Jammu and Kashmir government was not serious about the security of the pilgrims, which has led to such an incident. They demanded tough action against all those involved in the Baltal incident.
Some protesters also attempted to move inside the Hall Gate but they were stopped by the heavy police force deployed there. The police had apprehended that some protesters might try to enter a mosque inside the Hall Gate and therefore heavy deployment was made in the area. To avert any untoward incident, the police had also deployed security around the mosque. Also, barricading was done at the entry of the Hall Gate.
The Baltal incident, wherein 'langar' tents were burnt and pilgrims were injured, had led to protests in Amritsar on Friday also. The protests continued for the second day on Saturday.
Talking to Hindustan Times, ADCP (City-1) Parampal Singh said, "To avert any untoward incident, ample security arrangements were made. The protesters were stopped from going inside the Hall gate and requests were made to them to calm down". He further said, "The Shiv Sena has given a Bandh call for Monday and we will be keeping a close eye on the developments".

Last day in Bangkok
Today is planning day before getting overnight train to Laos.
Spent all morning trying to otganise packing again properly so we could get it into 2 rucksacks and 2 day bags.
Then afternoon by pool next to the river. Still hot and humid here. Will the rest of south east Asia be any different.
Bangkok Day 1. The New City
... just a few minutes walk away so I got myself a day pass and started off by getting off at Lumphini Park, but first there had to be Thai food. Nothing says welcome back to Thailand like a bowl of noodle soup that costs $1.20 and is so delicious
Lumphini Park is located in the Silom area of Bangkok and is a really nice city park with a lake. It was a great walk, watching local people jogging, and seeing a monitor ...
Getting to Ko Tao
24, 25 August (Vang Vieng to Ko Tao) Argh, this was going to be the start of a long journey. At 9:15am we were picked up from Pan's Place (so pleased to be out of that sauna) and driven to the bus station. We got a bus headed for Vientiane, again meeting travellers that we'd met elsewhere on our travels. Four and a half hours later we arrived in Vientiane. Everyone got off the bus except for us and one other South African guy (the first one we'd met). We were on our way to the train ...
Heading for Bangkok
... rest your head. From five star hotels to shabby basic rooms in the red light district everything is available; however most rooms come at a rate where price for value is quite out of balance. Thus, I decided to go for a hostel instead of hotel. And I did a lucky pick by accident. My choice, the Cube Hostel has opened its doors the same day I arrived ...
Bangkok is hot!
... was now sitting inside the restaurant and looked like he was at least 80 years old. It was probably his family running the place now. It was really hot, and I decided that perhaps its best to just head back to the hostel and catch a nap. So, I went to the near river ferry pier, named Tha Chang. The place was in total chaos. Boats were docking, people were shouting in Thai, there were Chinese/Korean travel groups who had booked their own charter boats, and no one ...

Hi Igor,
Thank you for posting and we are glad to help with you.
After reading your post, I felt that I am not very clear about your problem. What's the type of your project? What's the version of your Office? It will be better if you can show us more detailed code snippet.
I think you may reset the format of the comment. Here is the article about manuplating Excel comments via VBA:http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/ccomment.htm
I hope this can help you and feel free to follow up after you have tried.

Hi Bruce,
I'm using Shared Add-In project and Office 2007. To reproduce the problem I've created a sample project. You can download it here: http://panza.org.ua/XMLProblem.zip. It includes excel file XMLProblem.xlsx. To reproduce the problem click on the cell with comment and click on the ribbon button XMLProblem. The code behind the button is:
var app = ((Application) applicationObject); app.ActiveCell.Value[XlRangeValueDataType.xlRangeValueXMLSpreadsheet] = app.ActiveCell.Value[XlRangeValueDataType.xlRangeValueXMLSpreadsheet];
So if I just assign the active cell the same XML it had, the comments loose some formatting.
Another problem which I found is that color formatting for cell contents is "lost". For example - in the same file, the cell contents of cell E10 have color #8B0000 (R: 139 G: 0 B: 0). After clicking the XMLProblem button (when the cell is selected), the color resets to #800000 (R: 128 G: 0 B: 0), which is one of Standard colors.
The link you provided doesn't help, as they don't work with comments as formatted text, but as a plain text. I need to retrieve and set comments as formatted text.

The Ravens are banged up entering the postseason, as a number of key contributors have suffered various bumps and bruises over the last couple weeks.
That left me with a pen and pad in my hand out at practice today, taking roll call as the Ravens came outside and started to get into their afternoon drills.
The good news for Ravens fans is that left tackle Michael Oher, who suffered a sprained right knee on Sunday, was out taking part in practice. Oher was limping around the locker room earlier, but he suited up and got some reps in positional drills.
Cornerback Josh Wilson and linebacker Dannell Ellerbe, who both suffered shoulder stingers against Cincinnati, were also out at practice.
Wide receiver/kick returner David Reed appeared to lightly participate in practice today. I'll have more on Reed's wrist injury shortly.
Safety Ed Reed (rib injury) did not make an appearance during the open media portion of practice. Fellow veterans Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and Haloti Ngata also were not out during the time we're allowed to watch drills.
Center Matt Birk showed up without a helmet and did not appear to be practicing, while safety Tom Zbikowski (back) and linebacker Tavares Gooden (shoulder) were standing off to the side watching special teams drills.
Zbikowski took part in some light individual drills as he watched his teammates practice.

our furnace went out and the SameDay Heating and Air was the only company that could come that day. After installing a furnace and air conditioner we were charged $10,000. The nest day I made five calls to five other heating and air companies who quoted the exact furnace and airconditioner at half the price. The did do a great job but not acceptable at twice the price.

Last week, Mr Gooley opened what is said to be the largest retail travel outlet in the UK, onLondon's Kensington High Street. The pounds 5m, 11,500 sq ft location served by 110 consultants is opposite the company's other outlet and connected to it by a pedestrian crossing.
Mr Gooley, a former SAS man who started by running overland trips to the hippy paradise of Kathmandu, jokes that it would probably be more effective to have a single "emporium of travel" of the same sort of size as Barkers, the nearby department store. But the price of being in such a fashionable part of town is that suitable properties do not often become available. In fact, Trailfinders had waited several years for the shop next door to become free before giving up and setting up across the street.
Not that west London is any longer the company's only location. Five years ago it opened its first regional office in Manchester, because Manchester airport makes a good alternative international departure point for those in the area.
These were followed by outlets in Glasgow, Bristol and Birmingham, and Mr Gooley is looking at another regional office in Dublin.
"Why should somebody from Glasgow, say, have to come down to Heathrow or Gatwick to fly abroad?" he says. "And even if they do come to London to fly they sometimes want to visit the shop."
On top of this, he has expanded abroad, buying the Bloomfield Wilderness Lodge in the far north of Queensland, Australia, as well as a small airline with which to serve it, and opening travel offices in Brisbane and Cairns.
Although these locations, as opposed to the big cities of Sydney and Melbourne, seem to demonstrate that Trailfinders has not strayed far from its roots in exotic, independent travel, it does also cater for the mainstream holiday maker.
The changes in air travel since Trailfinders appeared on the scene mean that customers are just as likely to call Trailfinders if they want a bespoke family holiday as they are if they are looking to book a rock- bottom price trip to the Far East. And Trailfinders' inability to deal with the rising demand in the 1980s spawned what Mr Gooley calls clones and imitators.
Now, although Trailfinders still appears healthy, it made a profit of pounds 5.6m on turnover of pounds 196m last year, the market is so saturated that "nobody has left to set up on their own for at least seven years".
Moreover, margins are extremely tight, with the profit on a pounds 990 flight amounting to no more than pounds 6 to pounds 7.
In fact, much of the company's profit last year (which was reduced through pounds 1m being spent on setting up a charity with which Mr Gooley intends to assist youth and sports projects) came from investment income generated by the company owning its own freeholds rather than operating profit.
He explains: "There's a lot of competition. It's a lot tougher." Some multiples that have sought to get into the market have pulled out, he suspects because they lack the expertise in dealing with this sort of trade.
Unlike conventional travel agents, consultants at Trailfinders, who are expected to be keen travellers with experience of long trips, do not mix arranging long-haul flights with booking cross-Channel ferry crossings or bus trips to Scotland.
This focus is one factor in the company's continuing success, Mr Gooley believes. But he also thinks that culture is important. While there is no bar on people who have worked for other travel companies, they tend not to be hired because "it's quite difficult to turn people from another way of doing things".
Customer care is paramount. Most mistakes are forgiven, but if a consultant does something to upset a customer they are in deep trouble, says Mr Gooley.
In an industry that is notorious for leaving travellers stranded when a company collapses Trailfinders has sought to differentiate itself by offering repatriation services that do not require insurance to be taken out.
And then there is the teamwork, which is carried to such an extreme that those who do leave a staff that now comprises just less than 550, including those in Australia, often regret the loss of the social life. "We sort of work hard and play hard," says Mr Gooley, revealing that, even on the strict criteria that both parties must have been in full-time employment in the company at the time of meeting, there have been 23 marriages between employees.

U.S. stock futures decline and European stocks trade in the red after oil prices fall below $50 a barrel for the first time since December.
In recent trading, shares of CNO Financial Group Inc have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $20.00, changing hands for $20.14/share. When a stock reaches the target an analyst has set, the analyst logically has two ways to react: downgrade on valuation, or, re-adjust their target price to a higher level.

Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 12/7/16, CNO Financial Group Inc , OUTFRONT Media Inc , and Flushing Financial Corp. will all trade ex-dividend for their respective upcoming dividends.
Which stocks have shown these patterns in the past week.

A study of analyst recommendations at the major brokerages shows that CNO Financial Group Inc is the #89 broker analyst pick among those stocks screened by The Online Investor for strong stock buyback activity. To make that list, a stock must have repurchased at least 5% of its outstanding shares over the trailing twelve month period.

Clijsters shifts from low to great U.S. Open expectations
By Larry Fine
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Last year, Kim Clijsters came to the U.S. Open with no expectations, an unknown factor in a grand slam event she had won the last time she played it.
Her New York City fortnight ended with her curly-haired 18-month-old daughter Jada cavorting with the silver winner's trophy on center court and Clijsters reigning as a shining example to working mothers everywhere.
Times change, and the Belgian defender now looks to salvage a disappointing grand slam season by retaining her crown.
"For these last few weeks I've been preparing for the Open. I've been trying to get my game back," the 27-year-old Clijsters told reporters after her 6-0 7-5 first-round victory against Hungarian Greta Arn on Monday.
"Just to come out there and defending my title, I've never been in that position," said Clijsters, who stretched her U.S. Open winning streak to 15 in a row.
Clijsters began her win streak by capturing the 2005 U.S. Open, but missed the next year's event due to a wrist injury and then quit tennis for two years to start a family.
She became the darling of Flushing Meadows with her rousing run in 2009, but this year's slams have told a different tale.
Clijsters started the year by falling in the third round at the Australian Open, missed the French Open due to injury and was eliminated in the quarters at Wimbledon. Continued...
