Sacred music: Ensembles make a joyful noise

A path to peacefulness. A reminder of the importance of relationships. Music that makes you think. And a way to "bring order to an otherwise chaotic world."
Sacred music is a term to describe choral ensemble compositions written originally for the purpose of worship.
But for those not interested in a formal religious experience, sacred music has much to offer in today's frenetic, fast-paced world, say several musicians intent on bringing more of the genre to Southwest Florida.
"If people open up, experience something different, and let this sink in, they'll come away with a deeper appreciation of it," said Robert Parrish, founder of the 35-voice Musica Sacra Cantorum, a Bradenton-based concert ensemble devoted entirely to sacred music. "Going in with no preconceived notion of what the music is going to be like, people can have that experience of, 'Wow, that touched me greatly!'"
"Sacred music is a physical phenomenon as well as a psychological one," said Richard Storm, a member of Musica Sacra and also director of Key Chorale, which includes sacred music in its repertoire. "It touches a part of the brain that brings a sense of peace to you, and it creates an understanding that there are issues bigger than our struggles of today."
Musica Sacra Cantorum is the area's only group devoted entirely to performing sacred music in a concert setting, rather than in a church setting.
Parrish originally founded the group while a member of Trinity United Methodist Church in Bradenton, which he joined after leading a sacred music ensemble for more than 20 years at a New Jersey church.
He decided to take Musica Sacra public when he realized no other choral ensemble in the area had devoted itself to sacred music.
"This area is so full of artistic and musical experiences, but this seemed like a hole," said Parrish. "There's such a plethora of great sacred music -- not just Christian music but all cultures -- that this is really something I felt the area needed."
Sacred music is also part of the repertoire for some other local choral groups, including the Key Chorale and Gloria Musicae. And several area places of worship have begun hosting their own sacred music vocal ensembles, including St. Boniface Episcopal Church on Siesta Key, Church of the Redeemer, and Temple Sinai in Sarasota.
"Even the nonreligious person will find this type of music emotionally uplifting, very warm, and rewarding to listen to," said Neil Page, founder of Schola Cantorum, St. Boniface's 18-voice ensemble modeled after a traditional English cathedral choir. "That's one of the reasons we do a 'Sundays at 6' series, presenting sacred music within the liturgy but also within a framework that is open to anyone to come and listen without feeling intimidated or without being expected to have a religious experience."
"Our goal is simply to beautify the service," said Hazzan Abramson, founder of the Sinai Singers at Temple Sinai. "When written well, sacred music takes the meaning of words and texts and adds levels of spiritual resonance. So often someone will come up to us after a service and say, 'When I came in here things didn't feel right, but now I'm feeling a little bit more connected.'"
The root of sacred music's appeal is the often-ancient texts on which it is based, said Parrish, citing "Ubi Caritas," a Gregorian text that dates back to about the fourth century and is built around the message, "Where charity and love are, God is there."
Musica Sacra Cantorum has already performed two versions of the song -- one by French composer Maurice Durufle and another by American composer Morton Lauridsen -- and will soon perform a third by Norwegian composer Ola Gjielo.
"The most powerful thing about sacred music is the way different composers can take the same text and place it into different contexts and different musical feelings," Parrish said.
Sacred music, even within the same faith, also reflects different geographic areas, Abramson said.
He described how Jewish sacred music from Spain is more percussive, while the ancient compositions from Eastern Europe have an entirely different sound.
And the music's complexity is part of what earns it the label of "contemplative," said Kevin Rose, a vocalist with Schola Cantorum. "A lot of it is a cappella," he said. "When you have a piano or an organ underneath, it can help you hear the harmonic texture beneath the music. It's more challenging without accompaniment.
"Sacred music is also more chromatic: the more accidentals you see on the page the harder it is to sing. Some pieces have a mixed meter, which can make it more challenging. And in sacred music, you sing a lot of things that aren't in English. So you have to be more well-versed in different dialects."
Not all sacred music dates back hundreds of year. For example, Durufle, Lauridsen and Oijelo -- the composers whose arrangements of "Ubi Caritas" are part of Musica Sacra's repertoire -- also compose modern-day sacred music.
So does John Rutter, an American composer perhaps best-known for "The Lord Bless You and Keep You," a song based on a passage in the Old Testament Book of Numbers that was first performed in 1981 and now is performed by choirs worldwide in a variety of settings.
"Sacred music is really about passion, a passion for 'God' that needs to be communicated through music," Abramson said. "Words often are just not strong enough to hold that kind of feeling."

In June, Ben Affleck [1] and Jennifer Garner [2] announced their plans to divorce after 10 years of marriage, and despite all the rumors, the news still came as a shock. They weren't the first famous couple to blindside us with their breakup — Katie Holmes [3] and Tom Cruise [4]'s divorce came out of nowhere, and we couldn't have been the only ones who thought Jessica Simpson [5] and Nick Lachey [6] would last forever, right? Scroll through to see all the celebrity duos that made us gasp when they didn't make it, and then check out the famous pairs that have been together the longest [7].
Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas
Despite both having been previously married, Melanie and Antonio managed to make their marriage last 18 years before it was revealed in June 2014 that Melanie was divorcing Antonio [8].
Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli
This low-key couple revealed they were ending their 11-year marriage in 2012. Jennie later said [9] that Peter's decision to divorce was like "getting the rug pulled" from under her.
Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt
They were Hollywood's golden couple and despite whispers that Brad was getting close to his costar Angelina Jolie [10], we thought that nothing could rock their relationship of seven years. In 2005, after more than four years of marriage, Jen filed for divorce just days after she and Brad were photographed looking sweet on a Caribbean vacation.
Heidi Klum and Seal
It was a huge surprise when Heidi and Seal's separation made headlines in 2012; after all, they had been renewing their vows yearly since their 2005 wedding [11]. It didn't help that they frequently showed red carpet PDA and often gushed about each other in interviews.
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony
In July 2011, J Lo and Marc released a statement saying, "We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters." The news came as a shock to many, especially those who had watched them give a sexy performance together on American Idol just months earlier.
Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise
Talk about the shock of the year! Katie and Tom's divorce announcement [12] came out of left field in June 2012, when Tom's rep shared that "Kate has filed for divorce." The couple were married for more than five years and have daughter Suri together.
Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend
Charlize and Stuart, who were considered one of the most solid duos in Hollywood, kept their nine year relationship under the radar — so much so that even their 2010 split was a secret.
Amy Poehler and Will Arnett
We thought this funny couple would last forever, but there was nothing to laugh about when they announced their split in September 2012. They were together for nine years and have two children.
Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey
How could you not feel like you knew Jessica and Nick personally after watching Newlyweds? The closeness made their 2005 split news all the more shocking, despite months of denials that their marriage was on the rocks.
Keri Russell and Shane Deary
Keri and Shane revealed their split in early December 2013. The couple, who were married for almost seven years, had been separated since the Summer and are parents to a son, River, and daughter, Willa. They kept their relationship out of the spotlight, making their split all the more surprising.
Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger
This high-profile couple had four children and 25 years of marriage under their belt when news of their split was released in 2011. If that wasn't shocking enough, news of Arnold's love child and affair with the family's housekeeper followed.
Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins
They had been together for 23 years when they announced their separation in 2009. Despite the fact that they never married, it came as a total shock since their seemingly solid relationship had spanned more than two decades.
Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe
Reese and Ryan were young and in love, and when they broke up in 2006 after seven years of marriage and two children, many fans were devastated.
Ashley Judd and Dario Franchitti
Ashley announced her divorce from her race car driver husband in January 2013. The couple was married for 12 years, and given their out-of-the-spotlight status, we didn't see it coming.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin
Gwyneth and Chris were married for more than 10 years and had 2 children together when they announced that they were "consciously uncoupling." Though Gwyneth had some cryptic quotes on marriage [13] through the years, we thought they would make it work.
Courteney Cox and David Arquette
Courteney and David had been together since forever — 1999, that is – and even though things seemed a little shaky, there was still hope that they were rock solid. In 2010 the duo shared a statement about their separation, and in 2012 their divorce was finalized.
Vanessa Paradis and Johnny Depp
They may have never made it official with a wedding [14], but we were sure Johnny and Vanessa would be together forever. Fourteen years after they first started dating, the duo called it quits in June 2012.
Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs
In December 2013, Taye Diggs [15] and Idina Menzel announced that they were separating after 10 years of marriage. The couple met while starring in the Broadway production of Rent in the mid-1990s and have a son, Walker.
Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom
This was a couple we thought would weather all storms! In October 2013 they shared that they had separated after three years of marriage. They couldn't have been more adorable with their son, Flynn, and it doesn't look like those sweet photos ops will have to end. When a reporter asked Orlando if he was still friends with his ex, he said, "We're not friends — we're family."
Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher
Even with cheating rumors surrounding their marriage, we had high hopes that Demi and Ashton would make it work, especially given all the gushing they did about each other. But that was clearly not the case when, in November 2011, Demi filed for divorce, saying, "As a woman, a mother and a wife, there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life."
Patrick and Jillian Dempsey
Fifteen years of marriage was enough to make us think Patrick and Jillian were in it for the long haul, but in January 2015, they revealed that wasn't the case, since Jillian filed for divorce [16] and sought joint custody of their three children.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner
Rumors of trouble between these two swirled for weeks before their official split announcement [17] in June 2015. The news came just after their 10-year wedding [18] anniversary, and despite all the reports, many fans didn't believe it could be true until Ben and Jen revealed their plans to divorce.

It is great to see Janne Korpi, Ilkka Laari, Markus Malin and Kohsuke Hosokawa have some fun on snow.
Peep highlights of the top 3 stuntings from the Relentless Freeze that went down in London last weekend. Usually we wouldn't post FIS gymnastics but we like Battersea Power Station and Janne's front 10 double is Halldor-esque in it's narcoleptic style...
Otto Veijola, Peetu Piiroinen, Janne Korpi and Lohe play a game of "Sprytt". Unfortunately the fun does not end well, but watch for yourself...
The first episode of this Finn-centric web series focussed on the beginning of their US trip where bad weather forced them to get creative. Now, for Episode 2, the skies clear and it's game on in Copper's park. Watch it.

This weekend I had the awesome opportunity to photograph a radio interview for the lovely and multi-talented singer Alice Laurissa at DTF Radio! If you love classic R&B with a hint of retro influence (think Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Sarah Vaughn), she's definitely one to watch.
Follow her on Facebook, and while you're at it follow me too!
Here are some photos from the latest photo shoot! I've been putting off posting them for too long…
The first ones were taken outside, and as the harsh sunlight isn't always appealing for these purposes, we employed the use of various light modifiers, like diffusers and different kinds of reflectors. I would have liked to use a larger aperture to blur the background on some of these.
Next is the inside session. Here we used light modifiers on the strobe heads, used different lighting ratios, key/hair/edge lights, etc… and shutter drag which was a lot of fun to play with!
My first post of the new year, and I have to say it's a good one, because I got to do the coolest shoot this past weekend! The organizer of our group got this amazing abandoned building for these photo sessions. It's either coming down or getting redone, but it definitely made a great backdrop and mood for our fantastic models.
Have to say, I had a bit of a panic because I kept getting an error on my camera… but then I managed to figure it out — turns out my lens no longer works for shots wider than ~35mm, seems the shutter gets stuck or something :( But it was more than enough to get these shots!
There you have it! We were losing light fast by the end but it was a fun challenge to work with that kind of light. And as a final note, as every photographer knows, thousands of dollars worth of gear won't magically make you a good photographer. It might help your file look nice, sure, but the most important thing is to use what we know and work with what we have to make good images! That being said.. I will need a new lens eventually… donations are welcome ;A; (j/k!)
A couple of weeks ago I met up with some lovely folks at Central Park to walk around and take some photos. The destination was Belvedere Castle, which is apparently the location of the official Central Park weather station, and we took pictures along the way there. It was freezing and a bit windy and by the end I couldn't feel my toes anymore but it was worth it! These are my favorite shots from that day.
No actually it wasn't… It was awful and wet and raining and kind of cold. But the show must go on! And it was quite toasty inside. Check out the lovely and talented models we were able to work with for this workshop. It was a wedding theme, and the dresses, makeup, everything went together really nicely.
Next post we'll see photos from the last awesome concert I went to. Be on the lookout…
At long last, I'm back with some more music photos! And a band I've been wanting to photograph for ages, no less. Meet Violet Machine! But don't let the name fool you, there's nothing floral about this Brooklyn-based quartet, with vocals reminiscent of Interpol backed by dark, edgy instrumentals.
Checking out Violet Machine is not an option so do click the link above. Go on, click it! More bands from this same night coming soon.
What, another model photoshoot?! So, you will be seeing a bit more of these from now on, but not to worry; I'm not abandoning music photo ;P I had another opportunity to work with some great models at a different meetup, and it was hard to choose the best shots but these are a couple top picks.
I didn't get to shoot with the first model for very long because of some technical issues, but that didn't stop us from getting some great shots. Check these out.
And our next model was the fantastic Ica! So great to work with — you just have to see these for yourself!
Thanks girls, you were awesome! Hope to work with you again!
Stay tuned…
A couple of weeks ago I went to a photography meetup, and was able to shoot some fashion photography. It was great meeting new photographers, playing with the lighting, and of course working with our adorable model Kinga! She did several outfit changes and I took a good 400 shots but these are just a few of my favorites that day.
A few shots I've been meaning to upload a couple of months ago from Atlantic City. This was my first time there.
A handsome buccaneer showed up!
This was a short one but more to come.
So the other day I had the pleasure of being invited to Northside at COCO66 showcasing a bunch of local bands from the NYC area. They were all pretty fantastic and were a great example of the diverse music scene we've got going on here in the city! I didn't get to photograph all of them but I'll start with the bands I did get. And by the way, sorry to the drummers but there's no way I could get good pictures of you with the lighting they had going on in there :( Next time!
First up I've got Sky Picnic. Super nice bunch of folks with a nice warm 70's vibe going on that's really easy to get into.
After was Violent Video. These guys were very loud! But you should check them out if you're looking for something punk and mellow at the same time. If you're not, too bad, check them out anyway.
Then we had Exiles, something of a mix of retro beachy shoegaze. Such a combination in my experience tends to result in a good thing, and these guys pulled it off!
The other bands who also played the night:
The Post Nobles
Butchers and Bakers
Awesome night everybody!

4 Parks near Torrey, Utah

Office staff fine. Wi-Fi OK most of the time, which is pretty good at campgrounds these days. My Verizon MiFi did not work here. AT&T phone service worked pretty well. View was very nice from site #11. Price was good during high summer season. Very close to Capitol Reef National Monument. Lots of detractors, though that are fairly easy I would think to solve: site not level, trees not trimmed, place looks a little dumpy with clutter on the front porch and in the office area, entry into the place is dirt and gravel with lots of potholes. Satellite worked because we moved a little forward in our site. Barely enough room for car. Looks like they are clearing an area. Don't think I'd return to this one. - rwarner22

We really enjoyed this small country-like campground. Nothing fancy but wonderful location for seeing the sites in this area. Very friendly and helpful owners (she makes and sells beautiful jewelry in the store). Beautiful views throughout the park. We are a big rig and when we made our reservation she made sure we were in site #1 which was an easy in and out. Will definitely stay here again when in the area. - Wannabees

The proximity to local attractions in the area and the friendly staff make Sandcreek RV a good spot to park the trailer or set up camp in one of the tent sites or cute little cabin rental. Beautiful views of red rock cliffs surround the back of the park. Good Wi-Fi, AT&T service. - RVLife4us

Great little park with big rig access. Easy water and dump access, good roads, very spacious sites. Some very shaded, others not so much. Good walking in the area, dog friendly. It is 12 miles to Torrey, the nearest town, so plan accordingly. Incredible value.
Half the sites are reservable, half are walk in. We had no trouble getting a walk in site. - bobcovey

Nice little hidden campground, that could handle our 36' motorhome with tow car. Interior roads and site pads were blacktop. The sites had nice spacing, so you don't feel crowded. The camp hosts were very friendly. - JJ & CC
Jun 2013 - $10.00
Fantastic national forest camping. Large level sites, table, fire ring. Lots of trees and solitude. Easily navigable in a large rig. It is high elevation and a welcome relief from the temperatures of the valleys below. It also has a nice hike to a waterfall. The host this summer (2013) was oddly nasty. My not knowing I was supposed to pay him the camping fee instead of putting it in the iron box apparently set him off. I can only imagine how he treats the many foreign visitors that frequent Southern Utah. Otherwise, this is forest camping at its finest. - PleasantSurprise

Good Sam rate for a level, pull-thru, FHU, 50 amp site for our 33' motorhome. Most sites have trees and some shade. Roads and sites are gravel. Park WiFi was slow and connection was unreliable. Verizon cell worked, but MiFi reception was poor. Satellite TV reception was good. The park was quiet at night. We enjoyed our three night stay while visiting Capitol Reef National Park. We would stay again. - Dave51
Oct 2015 - $33.00
After reading all the rave reviews, we were slightly disappointed in this park. Our site was level and wide enough for our slides but too short to park our truck either in front of or behind our 40' trailer; we had to park across in front of the trailer in order to stay off the road. The roads were well-maintained gravel. There was plenty of grass due to plentiful water and it was neatly mowed. The laundry was very small with only 2 washers and dryers. The restrooms were clean but very small and could use an update. The store had a huge selection and unbelievable low prices. The staff was helpful and friendly but we were not escorted to our site. The views from the campground were fantastic. The wi-fi was extremely slow and there was no cable but we were able to pull in several stations with the antenna. - SandyA

As many know, I do not give out 10's but this rv park is a very high 9. Sites are large and nice - gravel and grass. Staff is great. And prices very reasonable. In the 178 different rv parks we have stayed they have, by far, the finest gift shop of any. And reasonably priced. Laundry was great - did not use the restrooms. Highly, highly recommend Thousand Lakes. - AZSwede

Loved this family-run park! Sites were almost flat with gravel. There were plenty of trees, some which caused challenges for slides. However, the owner came out and trimmed trees for folks in our group. There isn't an enclosed dog run but there is plenty of grassy space for walking. Wifi is iffy. - Dreaming

The only concern is the laundry, but the owner can't control the users that show-up at the same time. 4 washers-4 dryers Cleanest RR we have found on this trip. All the people waiting got to be friends with good conversation. - Dennis D
Sep 2015 - $32.00
I think this is the closest RV park to Capitol Reef National Park. The owner appears to keep his property very clean and in good condition, and he's a super nice guy. Our spot was long enough for our 31' MH and tow car. Everything worked well, full hook ups and WiFi. He has cable which is a little weak but we found out just before leaving that over the air stations are available. There was some shade and the grassy areas are green and well maintained. What's not to like? The driveways are dirt/gravel and while the owner can't play traffic cop all the time, we found more than the usual number of vehicles racing around the park kicking up a substantial amount of dust. Why can't RV drivers abide by the 5 mph speed? We would return here. - Coopsecondact

I'm surprised to see that this didn't get better reviews! Like others, I tried this after using CG Lashblast and finding it to be mediocre. I used it (the Maybelline) for 2 weeks and liked it well enough, but discovered that I *love* it just a few days ago. For the first couple weeks I used it, I did my usual routine of curling my lashes and then applying a couple/few coats of mascara. I found it to be pretty decent but maybe nothing to really rave about. Then just a few days ago, my son apparently was playing with my eyelash curler and now I have no i idea where it is. I panicked because I feel that I *have* to curl my lashes, but decided just to go ahead and apply the mascara without it. At least it would be better than nothing. Boy was I surprised to discover that using this mascara *without* an eyelash curler gave me the results I get when I *do* use one. In fact, I think the results are even better. I couldn't believe it. It curls, volumizes, lengthens and separates beautifully and that's *without* having to use a curler. I've never ever found a mascara that could do that. Needless to say, I'll be sticking with this one for quite a while! For reference, I have what I consider to be average lashes - not short but not long, not thin but not thick, and fairly straight. The formula does apply a bit thin but I don't have any problems with it. Also, it DOES have a strange synthetic type of smell which I'm not real fond of but it doesn't irritate my eyes or anything and goes away fairly quickly. Also, I'm not really happy with the fact that the only two color choice are Classic Black and Glam Black. I usually use a brownish black shade. AND there isn't a waterproof version and I can guarantee this would wear horribly in the rain or if you were crying or something. But for regular everyday wear, I love it.
UPDATE 1/7/09: I just bought my second tube of this after my first one ran out. This time I bought it in Glam Black for a more dramatic look. Either the formula is just much worse in Glam Black or they've tweaked the formula since it was first released. I noticed that it doesn't have the smell my first tube did, so I'm assuming it was tweaked. I've used it a few times now and it does NOTHING for my lashes. No volume, some lengthening, but very poor separation so I end up with spindle-y looking lashes. NOT what I was going for. If you bought this before and loved it, be forewarned that it may not work as well for you now.

Pretty amazing after one coat. I've used Maybelline mascaras in the past, and generally I've been satisfied. This one made my lashes pretty much double after a couple strokes. I'd buy this again.

So because this came out at a similar time to CG's Lash Blast, everyone seems to be comparing the two. They are in no way, shape (brush, literally) or form similar.
The stench.
Ok. Yes let's just add that to bajillion reviews before me that agrees this smells like dead roses. Whoever at Maybelline thought that was a good idea, you're an idiot.
Does it work? Yes. But I am about to say something shocking. I think the brush is actually too big. And that's a stretch. I actually prefer Volume Express.
I also, like others, have noticed that it dries out much faster than other mascaras.
It's a good mascara, but something's missing. And I can't place my finger on what.
I am updating this review to an almost turnaround. I must have gotten a really bad one from the first batch that came out. The inside of the tube even broke and rendered the rest of the masara useless. I wound up trying another one and the 2 tubes were incomparable. The smell was gone, even the packaging had changed, etc. Now this is brilliant and I find myself going to it more than my other mascaras.

Well, this was disappointing. I picked up the sunny yellow tube hoping I would just adore it (ah, yes...package does play a role to me!).
Considering I find CG Lash Blast to be mediocre, I had high hopes. I usually like other Maybelline mascaras, but this one seems to fare worse than LB IMO.
The formula is somewhat thin to me. Not ideal for volume building. And yes, CG does have a large brush too, this one was even more unwieldy! And on mine, there is a spindley section that pokes out further, with no bristles apparent. I always end up poking the inside edge of my nose/eye with it, making for clean up when I'm done.
I didn't see much curl or lengthening action going on. My lashes (not to brag) are pretty long and lovely on their own. This seemed to pull them to a straight line. Uh...not flattering.
Needless to say, I will not be repurchasing. Ever. Even if all other mascaras disappeared.

I tried this out mostly to compare to CG's Lashblast. It does smell kinda funny which is one main reason I didnt like CG. This brush is better though, it does not clump as much as Lashblast. But what I dont like about it is it feels too heavy and throughout the day it flakes off! I wont be buying this one again.

This used to be one of my favorites. It gives me super thick full soft lashes that look like falsies! I got this in glam black which I'm guessin is the blackest color for it, and I really liked how dramatic it made my lashes look with very minimal clumping.
Loved the packaging too, it looks sooo cute. Cuter than lashblast's gigantic radioactive carrot packaging.
But this mascara did not add a lot of length and made my eyelashes heavy by the end of the day, making me lose some of my curl. I LOVE having lotsa length, so the no length thing was a deal killer. I still really like it though, I definitely recommend this for volumizing and adding that drama to your eyes. :)

LOVE this product. Thick, full lashes - avoid clumping by applying heavily to the base of the lashes and lightly on the ends.
HG product!

Forget Lash Injection THIS is my new HG mascara. One coat and I have full, clump free, and lengthened lashes. It stays put all day and I have yet to experience any smudging or flaking. I can see how there might be issues for those who try and apply more than one coat but that's all you need with this one. I can't speak for its curling power since I have naturally curly lashes that don't require a lash curler for oomph. I can say that this certainly doesn't weigh down my lashes. It's also a breeze to remove unlike the Lash Injection. Oh and that smell? While it is strong it does dissipate within a matter of minutes. I did have to laugh to myself since I have the odd but accurate answer for all of you curious about the strange rose smell. It smells EXACTLY like Nasonex. For those of you not in the know this is an allergy relief nasal spray well known for giving you the lovely feeling of having a bouquet of flowers shoved up your nose in liquid form. If you're looking for a d/s mascara, and CG Lash Blast doesn't do it for you, then by all means pick this one up. After all it does have a huge reputation for always being on sale for dirt cheap.

I have very sensitive eyes and usually like brown mascaras as my eyes are a very dark brown. Got this in "Classic Black" and I love it! No irritation or sensivity and it lasts all day without smudging or smearing! Will definitely buy again!!!

Bought this from work the other day, and I have to say that I am impressed! I usually only use it if I am going out, as I have long lashes normally, and it's a little intense for everyday use. It's smooth, goes on so easy, and makes my lashes look HOT. There's only one thing I hate about it, and that's the fact that it smells like death.

Capacitor "Sound" in Microphone Preamplifier DC Blocking and HPF Applications: Comparing Measurements to Listening Tests
The sonic effect of capacitors in various aspects of audio electronics design has long been discussed and speculated upon. Recent publications have tested many of these theories through rigorous distortion measurements of a variety of capacitor types under several test conditions. One particularly interesting result is a measurable increase in 2nd harmonic distortion for electrolytic and PET type capacitors when a DC bias is applied. This article repeats these measurements for a set of capacitors commonly used in +48V phantom power blocking applications and high-pass filters in microphone pre-amplifier designs. These physical measurements are then compared to the result of double blind listening tests in order to examine the audibility of these capacitor distortions as well as explore their sonic effect on various program materials.

Indigenous Affairs
CIS has been active in advocating for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders to receive the same standards of education and health services that other Australians take for granted.
Poor education is a major factor behind high unemployment and welfare dependency, with many Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders living in appalling community housing and suffering from some of the highest rates of infectious diseases in the world. Work is needed to implement private property rights on communal title land and to address the high rates of alcohol and substance abuse rife in Indigenous communities.

A bit of a silly/ fluff question, but I have 15 minutes left at work with no more work to do so here goes:
At what age do you think it is appropriate to give a child a piggy bank? And what would you do with it? Do you just randomly put in a little money here and there, and then buy the child something he/she wants from it, or do you give the money to THEM to save for a bigger item?
My DD is not even 3 years old, she fell in love with a Hello Kitty piggy bank which got me thinking about whether we should get her one or not. Sometimes when people come over they say they want to give her a little change for her piggy bank, so maybe it's worthwhile to have? At what age can a child really "get" the purpose of money?

"WeddingPaperDivas was wonderful to help me customize the card for my wedding colors and the paper and envelopes are great quality."
"I really loved the design of this card! The dress is just beautiful against the soft pink background with the gold accents! Everyone LOVED it!"
"We ordered as-is in grey, but obviously with our names instead of those on the sample ;) The one issue we had was that the packing slip said (and therefore shipped) 125 cards but only 100 envelopes, and since the "contact us" link doesn't work, there wasn't much we could do about it. We love the cards, but this was definitely the one snag."
"I cannot wait to start sending out thank you's on these beautiful cards. They are such good quality, and they are gorgeous! The gold shimmer envelopes are just perfect!! Love love love!!"
"The cards are perfect and they came super fast! I can't wait to send them out after the wedding! We also got our wedding invitations from here and LOVE THEM! Great work Wedding Paper Divas the cute box they are delivered in is just the added touch to make them that much special!"

Dear neighbors,
Here's an idea, have lunch a required subject and everything else an elective. Lunch could be held on Saturdays.
Winning idea!

Dear neighbors,
When so many years ago when my 40+ year old daughter was a MVHS Student a similar plan to separate classes by different lunch hours was attempted. Seniors at that time worked hard to keep a single lunch period so that all students could be part of MVHS' community of students.
Someone might look back at that time to better understand how important community is within a high school.
