6.6 million tonnes of wheat under risk of damage in monsoon: Govt
New Delhi: Over 6.6 million tonnes of wheat worth nearly Rs 12,000 crore nearly Rs 12,000 crore of the government stock lying in the open runs high risk of damages during the monsoon season, the Food Minister K V Thomas admitted on Friday.
"We are concerned about 6.6 million tonnes of wheat kept open in unscientific way mainly in Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. We will give utmost priority to move this wheat to safe place in monsoon," he told reporters here.
Thomas has also written to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh suggesting a cap on procurement. "We have to work out a mechanism to limit the procurement as per our needs," he said.
At present, the government has a stock of 82.3 million tonnes against the storage capacity of 64 million tonnes. Of 50 million tonnes of wheat procured by the government, 27 million tonnes is kept in the open, of which 6.6 million tonnes is lying in an unscientific way.
Thomas noted that although storage capacity of FCI has increased by 40 per cent in last five years,there is still storage deficit as the government procurement reached an all-time high following record output of wheat and rice for the last two consecutive years.
He said that the Food Ministry in consulation with Food Corporation of India (FCI) has chalked out a plan to immediately evacuate the wheat under threat of damage.
As a contingent measure, the FCI has been directed to raise stack size in case of both wheat and rice. "This way, FCI would be able to accomodate 5-10 lakh tonnes more stock," he said. FCI has been directed to hire private storage space including those of cooperative sugar mills.
The government, on June 19, also decided to offload extra eight million tonnes of foodgrains via rations shops and in open market to ease the storage pressure.

My old tweets keep getting retweeted today. Is this what it feels like to be loved??
Stop begging for followers. Just be yourself and they will come. Unless you totally suck.
I had no idea how boring Facebook was until I came to Twitter.
A good host is drunk before the guests arrive. Pretty sure I read that somewhere.
Now that I have finally been retweeted, I'm ready for my first subtweet. Someone talk bad about me!!!
I picture those of you that star my tweets saying... "Bless her little heart. She tries".
It's so exhausting trying to hide from the darkness inside.

Posted by Josh
My DWI case was very unique and after I was charged I spoke to several lawyers. They all approached my case as if it was a cut and dry DWI charge and spoke numbers. Mr. McGaw took his time to explain each aspect of the case and describe each possible outcome. During the entire time the case was ongoing, he kept me updated with any changes. Furthermore, Mr. McGaw went out of his way to explain things to my superiors since this charge could have prevented me from doing my job. I'm positive that the good outcome of my case is a direct reflection of Mr. McGaw's hard work and experience. I highly recommend Mr. McGaw.

I find it very funny that Ronald has so many good reviews on here, but he hasn't tried to help my boyfriend (who is black) try to get him justice against his child's mother (who is white) even though this woman smokes around their small child inside her small 2 bedroom apartment with 3 kids by 3 different men, burned the child with a cigarette on his arm when he was just 2 years old, and gave her son multiple breathing problems which were caught on video, and all Ron says is, "The mother usually ends up getting custody." even though my boyfriend doesn't smoke and lives in a 5 bedroom house. My boyfriend has joint custody with this woman and yet he only gets to see him 2 weekends out of the month. He has requested more time with his son and Ron isn't helping him getting more days at all. I don't know how this man could've been a judge because he is quiet as a mouse when my boyfriend is in court with him even though he tells my boyfriend ahead of time that that he will bring up his matters, meanwhile my boyfriend's son's mother's legal aid never shuts up. Where is the justice in that? Also my boyfriend has even seen Ronald pow-wowwing and perhaps even flirting with the opposing council who he is suppose to be fighting against for my boyfriend when my boyfriend went to the courthouse to file papers and Ronald and the opposing council looked at him shocked. One time my boyfriend's son's lawyer was defending my boyfriend in court more than Ronald was! Ron has also made it clear to my boyfriend that he doesn't want to fight for him for whatever reason because when my boyfriend politely questioned his quiet tactics he told him, "You can always request to have another legal aid." Ronald also never advises my boyfriend any legal advice so I have offered to try my best to find it myself online for him. Joseph Fariggno is another joke that works for Ronald's law firm and has been present when Ronald decided not to show up in court to defend my boyfriend. This guy tries to tell my boyfriend and I to be quiet even when the judge is asking us questions and wants to hear what we have to say because she knows they don't want to speak up for my boyfriend because they're clearly in the judge's pockets. You're better off saving your money so you can hire a REAL, respectable, and curtious lawyer.

Mr. McGaw is been my attorney for while and I can only say one thing about him - Ron McGaw is attorney you should have if you wanna get forward intelligent way without stress.
Posted by Janet G.
Ron McGaw has been handling landlord/tenant matters for our Property Management company for over 8 years. He is very thorough and has a strong understanding of the court system with his prior experience as a judge. He is always accessible, very in touch with his clients and easy to communicate with. It has been our pleasure to use Ron for our legal needs and we will continue to do so in the future.

I have been assigned legal aid attys in the past in family court and Ron was, by far, the nicest, most knowlegable and helpful I've ever ad assigned to me. His secretary is wonderful and either she and even Ron himself call back prompyly with answers to questions. Legal aid calling back at all is a miracle, but the actual atty? Unheard of! Ron also has an edge as he is a former judge and has amaing knowledge and insight as far as how a judge can or may rule. I would recommend him to anyone, especially where family atty is needed. -Sheri C

Philip L. Boroughs, S.J. Days earlier McPherson received third prize in an international organ competition. Photo by: Dan Vaillancourt
Holy Cross senior Jennifer McPherson has played in organ competitions before, but never at the international level. So when she won third prize in such a competition — along with the 1,000 euros that came along with it — McPherson was elated.
Selected from a round of 55 candidates and later nine finalists, McPherson traveled to Amsterdam to participate in the fourth Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck Organ Competition at the Oude Kerk, the oldest stone building in the Dutch capital. The finalists competed before a jury consisting of accomplished musicians Piet Kee, Wilbert Hazelzet, Matteo Imbruno, Jos van der Kooy, Anton Pauw, Maurizio Salerno, and Henk Verhoef. At the conclusion of the four-day competition on Sept. 8, McPherson was awarded third prize.
The opportunity to play the organ at such a renowned competition was humbling, says McPherson.
"It was an incredible feeling. This was my first international competition, so I wasn't sure what to expect," she says. "I heard several really talented organists, a lot of wonderful music, and was honored to be a part of it."
A music major from Eliot, Maine, McPherson was the only American selected to participate in the competition. Although the Oude Kerk organ is smaller than the Taylor and Boody Organ in St. Joseph Memorial Chapel at Holy Cross, McPherson felt her music "came alive" with the early music selections from Scheidemann, Schildt, Sweelinck, and Praetorius. "The organ in the Oude Kerk was a treat to play," she says.
As the Organ Scholar for the class of 2013, McPherson is on a full tuition scholarship and plays the four manual, fifty-stop mechanical action pipe organ in St. Joseph Chapel. She assists the chapel music program and the College organist as needed.
McPherson has participated in American Guild of Organists Young Organist Competitions in Boston and New Jersey. At Holy Cross, she is involved in the Schola Cantorum, Peace Around the World and Coalition Against Human Trafficking.
McPherson credits James David Christie, distinguished artist in residence and College organist, for having the opportunity to develop her musical skills. "As organ scholar, I've been able to meet and work with so many incredible musicians, perform on some fabulous instruments, and travel to some pretty neat places," she says. "I'm so grateful for this experience."
Upon graduation, McPherson plans to continue her education in music with a focus on historical performance.

Groundwater affected by development, scientists say
IS4 Domestic Water Systems
Thousands of homeowners in Delaware currently rely on individual wells and water systems to provide water. In addition, hundreds of new wells and systems are constructed each year to provide water for those not served by public water systems. Methods used to construct water wells in Delaware are discussed in DGS Information Series No. 2 (Domestic Water Well
Construction). Domestic water systems are described herein.
IS3 Ground Water in Delaware
Because of its "renewability" water is unique among earth resources that sustain and enhance life. No other mineral resource that we extract on a long-term and continuous basis can be counted on for at least some degree of replenishment within a human lifetime. This attribute allows a great deal of flexibility in management of the resource. In Delaware local rainfall, approximately 40" to 44" per year, renews part or all of our water supply on a regular basis. However, not all of the rain that falls is available for use. From this total rainfall must be subtracted the water that evaporates (about 20"/ year), the amount that is used by plants (about 3"/year), and the amount that runs overland to surface streams during storms (about 4"-5"/year). The remainder, approximately 13" to 15" is Delaware's bank of water for the year. This water is stored in a system of ground-water reservoirs, or aquifers, that underlie most of the State. Not only do these ground-water reservoirs provide water to wells but they also maintain the flow in surface streams during times of no rainfall. Streamflow between rainfall events is nothing more than the discharge of
excess ground water.
IS2 Domestic Water Well Construction
The storage and movement of ground water depends on the types of rocks and associated
interconnected spaces in which the water occurs. The Piedmont Province in northernmost
Delaware is underlain by crystalline rocks. Because of the massiveness and hardness of such
rocks, they yield little or no interstitial water to wells. Water is stored in and moves through fractures, cracks, and solution cavities. The amount of water available depends on the number and size of openings, and the degree to which they are interconnected. Wells drilled in the Piedmont range from 100 to 400 feet in depth and yields are highly variable over very short distances.
In the Coastal Plain, the rest of the State, ground water is stored and transmitted in spaces between adjacent rock particles. As much as 30 percent of the rock mass may be saturated. Unconsolidated rocks are analogous to a bathtub filled with sand into which water is poured. The Coastal Plain consists of sandy water-bearing units referred to as aquifers interlayered between non-water-bearing units. Wells constructed for domestic use range in depth from 15 feet to 500 feet. Yields are generally much greater than those obtained from the crystalline rocks of the Piedmont. In general, minimum well yields of 3 to 5 gallons per minute are adequate for most domestic water supply systems.
Thickness, Elevation of the Base, and Transmissivity Grids of the Unconfined Aquifer of Sussex County (Data Product No. 06-01)
The unconfined portion of the Columbia aquifer is a key hydrologic unit in Delaware, supplying water to many agricultural, domestic, industrial, public, and irrigation wells. The aquifer is recharged through infiltration of precipitation and is the source of fair-weather stream flow and water in deeper confined aquifers. The aquifer occurs in permeable sediments ranging in age from Miocene to Recent. Over most of Delaware, the top of the unconfined or water-table portion of the Columbia aquifer occurs at depths less than 10 feet below land surface. Because of the permeable character of the aquifer and its near-surface location, the unconfined aquifer is highly susceptible to contamination.
DGS Digital Datasets
In the same ways as our printed publications, digital data released by the DGS represent the results of original professional research and as such are used by professionals and the public.
Kent and Sussex Water Recharge Data (Digital Data Product No 02-01)
Ground-water recharge potential maps show land areas characterized by their abilities to transmit water from land surface to a depth of 20 feet. The basic methods for mapping ground-water recharge potential are presented in Delaware Geological Survey Open File Report No. 34 (Andres, 1991) and were developed specifically for the geohydrologic conditions present in the Coastal Plain of Delaware. The digital data for this layer comes from DGS Digital Data Product DP 02-01, Digital Ground-Water Recharge Potential Map Data For Kent and Sussex Counties, Delaware: A. S. Andres, C. S. Howard, T. A. Keyser, L. T. Wang, 2002.
RI74 Locating Ground-Water Discharge Areas in Rehoboth and Indian River Bays and Indian River, Delaware Using Landsat 7 Imagery
Delaware's Inland Bays in southeastern Sussex County are valuable natural resources that have been experiencing environmental degradation since the late 1960s. Stresses on the water resource include land use practices, modifications of surface drainage, ground-water pumping, and wastewater disposal. One of the primary environmental problems in the Inland Bays is nutrient over-enrichment. Nitrogen and phosphorous loads are delivered to the bays by ground water, surface water, and air. Nitrogen loading from ground-water discharge is one of the most difficult to quantify; therefore, locating these discharge areas is a critical step toward mitigating this load to the bays. Landsat 7 imagery was used to identify ground-water discharge areas in Indian River and Rehoboth and Indian River bays in Sussex County, Delaware. Panchromatic, near-infrared, and thermal bands were used to identify ice patterns and temperature differences in the surface water, which are indicative of ground-water discharge. Defining a shoreline specific to each image was critical in order to eliminate areas of the bays that were not representative of open water. Atmospheric correction was not necessary due to low humidity conditions during image acquisition. Ground-water discharge locations were identified on the north shore of Rehoboth Bay (west of the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal), Herring and Guinea creeks, the north shore of Indian River, and the north shore of Indian River Bay near Oak Orchard.
RI68 Estimation of the Water Table for the Inland Bays Watershed, Delaware
A geographic information system-based study was used to estimate the elevation of the water table in the Inland Bays watershed of Sussex County, Delaware, under dry, normal, and wet conditions. Evaluation of the results from multiple estimation methods indicates that a multiple linear regression method is the most viable tool to estimate the elevation of the regional water table for the Coastal Plain of Delaware. The variables used in the regression are elevation of a minimum water table and depth to the minimum water table from land surface. Minimum water table is computed from a local polynomial regression of elevations of surface water features. Correlation coefficients from the multiple linear regression estimation account for more than 90 percent of the variability observed in ground-water level data. The estimated water table is output as a GIS-ready grid with 30-m (98.43 ft) horizontal and 0.305-m (1 ft) vertical resolutions.
RI66 Ground-Water Recharge Potential Mapping in Kent and Sussex Counties, Delaware
Ground-water recharge potential maps support decision-making and policy development in land use, water-resources management, wastewater disposal systems development, and environmental permitting in state, county, and local governments. Recently enacted state law requires that counties and towns with more than 2,000 residents provide protection to areas with excellent recharge potential in comprehensive land use plans. Approximately 14 percent of Kent County and 8 percent of Sussex County have areas with excellent recharge potential. Ground-water recharge potential maps show land areas characterized by the water-transmitting capabilities of the first 20 feet below land surface. Ground-water recharge potential mapping in Kent and Sussex counties was done using geologic mapping techniques and over 6,000 subsurface observations in test borings, wells, borrow pits, natural exposures, and ditches. Hydraulic testing of more than 200 wells shows that the four recharge potential categories (excellent, good, fair, poor) can be used as predictors of the relative amounts and rates at which recharge will occur. Numerical modeling shows that recharge rates in areas with excellent recharge potential can be two to three times greater than rates in fair and poor recharge areas. Because of the association of recharge potential map categories with hydraulic properties, map categories are indicators of how fast contaminants will move and how much water may become contaminated. Numerical modeling of contaminant transport under different recharge potential conditions predicts that greater masses of contaminants move more quickly and affect greater volumes of water under higher recharge potential conditions than under lower recharge potential conditions. This information can be used to help prioritize and classify sites for appropriate remedial action.
RI64 Results of Hydrogeologic Studies of the Cypress Swamp Formation, Delaware
The Cypress Swamp Formation is the surficial geologic unit in south-central Sussex County, Delaware. Detailed hydrologic observations made as part of four separate studies between 1995 and 1999 show that the Cypress Swamp Formation consists of a complex assemblage of moderately permeable sands and low permeability organic and inorganic silts and clays that form a heterogeneous shallow subsurface hydrologic system that is between about 5 and 15 feet thick. Aquifer tests show that hydraulic conductivity ranges between 0.55 and 40 ft/day, with an arithmetic mean of 13 feet/day.
RI62 The Cypress Swamp Formation, Delaware
The Cypress Swamp of Sussex County, Delaware, is underlain by a body of late Pleistocene- to Holocene-age unconsolidated sediments. They form a mappable geologic unit herein named the Cypress Swamp Formation. Deposits of the formation can be found outside the current boundaries of the Cypress Swamp and record the erosion and redistribution of older Pleistocene coastal and Pliocene sedimentary units.
RI61 The Occurrence and Distribution of Several Agricultural Pesticides in Delaware's Shallow Ground Water
In June 1996, the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) proposed a regulation to require individual states to develop Pesticide Management Plans (PMPs) to protect their ground-water resources from pesticide contamination. The USEPA designated the predominantly agricultural pesticides atrazine, alachlor, cyanazine, metolachlor, and simazine as the first five that would require a PMP.
RI52 Quality and Geochemistry of Ground Water in Southern New Castle County, Delaware
Water samples were collected from 63 wells in southern New Castle County to assess the occurrence and distribution of dissolved inorganic chemicals in ground water. Rapid growth is projected for the study area, and suitable sources of potable drinking water will need to be developed. The growth in the study area could also result in degradation of water quality. This report documents water quality during 1991-92 and provides evidence for the major geochemical processes that control the water quality.
RI51 Herbicides in Shallow Ground Water at Two Agricultural Sites in Delaware
Several common herbicides used on corn and soybeans were detected in ground water at two agricultural sites in Delaware as part of a study of the distribution of herbicides in shallow ground water and the environmental factors affecting their occurrence.
RI49 Results of the Coastal Sussex County, Delaware Ground-Water Quality Survey
The results of this investigation of the Columbia aquifer in coastal Sussex County, Delaware, provide some of the data necessary to evaluate the condition of the area's primary source of fresh water. Chemical analyses of water samples from domestic, agricultural, public, and monitoring wells document the effects of past and present land use practices. Groundwater flow paths and flow systems are inferred from flow-net analysis, ground-water chemistry, and isotopic composition.

Among overweight adults, participation in an intensive lifestyle intervention was associated with a greater likelihood of partial remission of type 2 diabetes, but the absolute remission rates were modest, according to a study.
Diabetes traditionally has been considered a progressive, incurable condition wherein the best-case scenario after diagnosis is tight metabolic and risk factor management to forestall vascular and neuropathic complications, according to background information in the article, which appeared in the Dec. 19 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Patients diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes frequently ask their physicians whether their condition is reversible, and some physicians may provide hopeful advice that lifestyle change can normalize glucose levels. However, the rate of remission of type 2 diabetes that may be achieved using non-surgical approaches has not been reported.
Edward W. Gregg, PhD, of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, and colleagues conducted a study to examine the association of an intensive lifestyle intervention with frequency of partial and complete remission of type 2 diabetes. The study consisted of an ancillary observational analysis of a four-year randomized controlled trial comparing an intensive lifestyle intervention with a diabetes support and education program. The study included 4,503 U.S. adults with body mass index of 25 or higher and type 2 diabetes.
Participants were randomly assigned to receive the intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI), which included weekly group and individual counseling in the first six months followed by three sessions per month for the second six months and twice-monthly contact and regular refresher group series and campaigns in the second through fourth years; or diabetes support and education (DSE), an offer of three group sessions per year on diet, physical activity and social support. The ILI aimed to reduce net caloric intake to 1,200 to 1,800 calories a day through reductions in total and saturated fat intake and by increasing physical activity levels to a goal of 175 minutes per week. Liquid meal replacements were provided to assist dietary goals.
Participants in the ILI group had lost significantly more weight than DSE participants at both year one (-8.6% vs. -0.7%) and year four (-4.7% vs. -0.8%) and had greater increases in fitness at both year one (20.6% vs. 5.3%) and year four (4.9% vs. -1.5%).
The researchers also found that the prevalence of complete remission (i.e., glucose normalization without medication) was more common in the ILI group than in the DSE group across all years of the study. However, the absolute prevalence was low, ranging from 1.3% for ILI vs. 0.1% for DSE in year one, to 0.7% for ILI vs. 0.2% for DSE in year four.
Additional analyses indicated that ILI participants were significantly more likely to experience any remission, partial or complete, with a prevalence of 11.5% during the first year, decreasing to 7.3% during year four, compared with 2% in the DSE group at both points. Rates of any remission were notably higher (15% to 21%) among people with substantial weight loss or fitness change, shorter duration of extant diabetes or a lower HbA1c level at entry and those not using insulin.
The authors wrote that the ILI group was significantly more likely to have continuous, sustained remission, with 9.2% experiencing at least a two-year remission at some point during follow-up versus 1.7% of the DSE group; and 6.4% experiencing at least a three-year remission versus 0.5% in the DSE group. The results from the complete case analyses were similar, they wrote.
The increasing worldwide prevalence of type 2 diabetes, along with its wide-ranging complications, has led to hopes that the disease can be reversed or prevented. These analyses of more than 4,500 overweight adults with type 2 diabetes confirm that complete remission associated with an intensive lifestyle intervention, when defined by glucose normalization without need for drugs, is rare.
However, partial remission, defined as a transition to prediabetic or normal glucose levels without drug treatment for a specific period, is an obtainable goal for some patients with type 2 diabetes.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Democratic and Republican senators says they
hope President Barack Obama looks beyond the federal bench as he
considers a replacement for retiring Supreme Court Justice David
Obama said last week he would be looking at potential nominees
who have empathy for ordinary Americans.
The suggestion that the next justice might be inclined to consider more than the law raised concerns among conservatives that an "activistn judge" would be selected.
Republican Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama says that if Obama "will appoint a pragmatist, someone who is not an ideologue, that someone is not just going to light all the light bulbs in America on the left, I think that would be good for the country.
He is very smart. He is very careful. I hope he is going to be careful in this appointment."

WELCOME to the Bija Children's Choir, a 501c3 nonprofit program deeply dedicated to educating and inspiring young people who love to sing, as well as enriching the community through quality multicultural performances. Bija is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning seed of creation, which represents the Bija Choir's mission of sowing seeds of musical capability, confidence, and creativity among Sonoma County's youth.
The Bija World Music Summer Camp is now open for enrollment! Click HERE for more camp info and the link to register.
BECOME A FRIEND by attending our concerts, referring us to others, or sponsoring a need by clicking the DONATE button. Heartfelt thanks for your support! This past March was our Sixth Annual Bija Cultural Story Concert: Princess Lani & the Adventure of the Healing Leaves, on Sat March 12th at the Sebastopol Ctr for the Arts Auditorium, with special guests Kumu Liko Puha (vocals, ukulele, ipo heke), Kumu Hula Linda Low, Jessica Selinger (hula), Bill Rhyne (12-string guitar), Gabe Case (bass and percussion) and Cathryn Fairlee (story narrator).

THE 2015-16 SEASON meets at the following CLASS SCHEDULE:
Wednesdays 5:15-6:15pm Treble Choir
Thursdays 2:30-3:15pm Junior Rhythmics Choir
3:30-4:15pm Preparatory Choir
4:30-5:15pm Concert Choir (Select group stays until 5:30pm)
Monday and Thursday classes are held at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts, 282 South High St. Wednesday Treble Choir is at a Private Studio in central Sebastopol. Students may enter beginner level classes at the start of September, January or April. Auditioned choirs are a full-season commitment and mid-season acceptance is at the discretion of the director.
Classes meet weekly, leveled by age and ability:
The Bija Junior Choir classes are open to ages 5-6 without audition, offering an introduction to choir through the full body approach of Dalcroze Eurhythmics. Junior Choir students perform for their families at the end of each session, and the emphasis is on developing music listening skills, introducing students to basic elements of music theory through movement, and cultivating a joy for singing in ensemble.
The Bija Preparatory Choirs are open to ages 7-12 without audition, and introduces children to basic choral concepts of solfege singing, multicultural repertoire, simple rhythmic dance choreographies, and developing a beautiful unison sound. Preparatory Choir students perform for their families at the end of each session and occasionally join the Concert Choir in community performances.
The Bija Concert Choir is open to ages 8-14 by audition or invitation, and works with multicultural repertoire in two and three part harmonies, as well as movement choreographies and rhythmic percussion accompaniment. Theory principles such as meter, phrase, notation, and form are taught through the movement principles of Dalcroze Eurhythmics. Concert Choir students perform in annual Story Concerts each Spring and collaborate from guest artists from the Bay Area, as well as perform for various other local community events. Starting September 2016 a Concert Choir Select group will emerge for additional intermediate level study at the end of Concert Choir rehearsal.
The Bija Treble Choir is a chorus run privately by Maria Bija for older girls and women by audition or invitation, performing advanced-intermediate classic choral and world music arrangements for community benefit events and special projects. Music theory through Dalcroze Eurhythmics and Solfege are incorporated into rehearsals, and studio recordings and travel tours are also in the forecast for future seasons.
Please email firstname.lastname@example.com for questions about placement in Concert and Treble Choirs.

Maria Bija is a classically-trained musician with a passion for world music and dance. Born in Boston, MA to an Italian mother and English American father-- both very musical parents with great rhythm and perfect sense of pitch and harmony, Maria began singing at her earliest age and showed natural abilities at the piano. For eight formative years she studied with Polish concert pianist, Ronald Kmiec of Carlisle, Massachusetts.
By her teenage years, Maria began her professional vocal career, recording corporate commercial jingles and singing jazz, r&b, country, and folk styles, with her major influences at the time including Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, and Bonnie Raitt. Later in her college years, Maria studied abroad in Italy, India, Ghana, and Brazil, and sang with samba bands in Boston, paving the way to her lifelong love of Brazilian music.
Maria earned her Master's of Music degree in Dalcroze Eurhythmics in 1997 under the tutelage of Lisa Parker, and has since incorporated Dalcroze movement-based teaching principles in her music classes for all ages and levels of ability. Understanding the crucial role of movement in teaching/learning music, she honors the belief that the first instrument is the body.
Over the past decades, Maria has recorded numerous albums, one of which won a Parents Choice Award ("World Family Folk Celebration", available on CDBaby) and another went under contract with Challenge Records of the Netherlands (Blue Brazil: Gema). As a mother of two, she created the Musical Mothering program for young families in Napa Valley, and world music ensembles such as Twin Souls, Blue Brazil, and recently a new performance project 'ABRAZU'. She is the founder and Artistic Director of the Bija Children's Choir in Sonoma County. Maria plans to travel abroad once again in the coming years and collaborate with musicians internationally, while at the same time continues to nurture her home community in Sebastopol, promoting local sustainability in the way she creatively and thoughtfully leads her life in the performing arts.
Colleen Toner-Rogers is the Bija Children's Choir's Class Assistant. Outside of class, she directs of the West County Music Together program, and has many years of experience with children and music, in addition to performing with the women's vocal ensemble, Kindred Voices. She assists in the Bija classes as needed, handles registration and concert-time matters. She also works with sections of the Concert & Treble Choir classes, assisting in the development of harmony skills.

"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
Hello and welcome to What Are You Reading? This week our special guest is artist Ivan Anaya, one of the winners of the winner of the Skullkickers Tavern Tales Contest. He'll join the other winner, writer Aubrey Sitterson, on a story for Skullkickers #18.
To see what Ivan and the Robot 6 crew have been reading, click below.
Shopping online is a beautiful thing if you know exactly what you're looking for, but there are drawbacks to buying comics that way. One of the many advantages to shopping at a physical location is the ability to pick up comics and flip through them. Better than any five-page preview, the flip-through gives readers the chance to quickly look at the entire book to see if it catches their interests.
Archaia has launched a YouTube channel that allows online shoppers do that virtually. As you can see when you watch the video for Nate Cosby and Chris Eliopoulos' Cow Boy below, it's a simple concept: A pair of hands picks up an Arachaia book, looks it over, then flips through it, occasionally stopping on pages for a closer inspection. It goes all the way through the book, including the back matter and the back cover.
The project is still in an experimental phase, but the company's already thinking about adding music or possibly narration. Hopefully it will catch on enough not only to encourage Archaia to post its entire catalog, but to nudge other publishers toward doing something similar.
Updated: As a commenter points out below, Fantagraphics has been doing this for a while now and has hundreds of titles available for flipping through.
Hello and welcome to What Are You Reading?, where each week we detail what comics and other stuff have been on our reading piles. Our special guest today is David Harper, associate editor over at the recently redesigned Multiversity Comics.
To see what David and the Robot 6 crew have been reading, click below.
Publishing | Continuing its domination of the graphic novel sales in bookstores, The Walking Dead laid claim to seven of the Top 10 spots on BookScan's April chart. The series, by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard, took the first four positions. What's more, 12 of the Top 20 graphic novels were volumes of The Walking Dead. [ICv2.com]
Publishing | Robot 6 contributor Brigid Alverson talks to Right Stuf director of marketing and communications Alison Roberts about that company's announcement earlier this week that it will be publishing the first three volumes Hetalia: Axis Powers as a print-on-demand books. The series was originally licensed by Tokyopop, which is co-branding the books with Right Stuf. [MTV Geek]
Conventions | Comic-Con International spokesman David Glanzer addresses problems with the badge-buying process: "After the two aborted events last year, we learned that each person had a multitude of browsers open. That's going to create a bottleneck no matter what you do. Were there issues? Are we trying to work on them? Yes, we are. I think people's anger is understandable, when all they're trying to do is pay someone for a badge to attend an event and they can't do that. We do test after test, and lo and behold something will happen. But (selling out in) an hour 20 minutes shows us we're getting a handle on it." [U-T San Diego]
Comic strips | Darren Bell talks about having Trayvon Martin, the Florida teenager who was killed by a neighborhood watch member, appear in his comic strip Candorville: " I decided to incorporate him into Candorville as soon as I saw one of my Facebook 'friends' post a photo of Trayvon [that turned out to not be this Trayvon], flipping off his webcam. Even if that had been the real Trayvon Martin, it wouldn't have mattered. … What this told me was people were starting to dehumanize Trayvon, so they could rationalize what happened and insulate their own belief about 'Stand Your Ground' laws, about race, about concealed carry laws, etc., from any fallout." [Comic Riffs]
Archaia announced this morning it will publish Cow Boy, an all-ages title created by Nate Cosby (Pigs, Jim Henson's The Storyteller) and Chris Eliopoulos (Franklin Richards, Pet Avengers).
Boasting the tagline "Justice ain't got no age," Cow Boy is the tale of Boyd, a 10-year-old bounty hunter determined to round up his entire outlaw family. The comic will include short stories by the likes of Roger Langridge, David Gallaher and Steve Ellis, Brian Clevinger and Scott Wegener, Colleen Coover, Paul Tobin and others.
A seven-page preview can be found on the book's blog. Cow Boy will be released in March 2012. In the meantime, check out CBR TV's just-posted interview with Cosby recorded at WonderCon.

I was having a lot of fullness and mild cramping and pressure in my lower abdomen. Some of the cramping kinda felt like AF cramps but not quite. I was nausiated last night and vomited twice. Had some stabbing/burning pain on and off in my breasts a few time and was exhausted for a few days.
I took a nap and now feel fine. Still bloated but thats it.
This may sound like a stupid question. And I apologize if people think that, but I have never been pregnant before. (don't know if Im pregnant now...) but this cycle I've had the most possible pregnancy symptoms. Now most of them are gone. Should I be concerned?
Could it be that the cramping and things were implantation and now the little eggie is nice and settled? Or could it be cramping that implantation was unsuccessful?
I guess there really wont be an answer until I get BFP or AF right? I am so hping that this cycle IT.

On the 29th of April 2014, around 100 sustainability pioneers from Antwerp came together for the first Antwerp Sustainability Platform. Antwerp-ITCCO and Stadslab2050 brought together intrapreneurs from companies, business community, governments, trade unions, non-governmental organizations, academia and knowledge centres, to exchange knowledge in the field of sustainable development, corporate social responsibility, business ethics and transparency.
Mr. Wollaert, general manager, explains the necessity to develop and strengthen the capacities in the areas of sustainable development, corporate social responsibility, business ethics and transparency on a regional bases within government authorities, private sector representatives and civil society leaders around the world. Therefore, Antwerp-ITCCO relies on an action learning approach that promotes the transfer of experiences, skills, and best practices through training modules, luncheons (peer-to-peer seminars) and network events.
Through this 'Sustainability Platform', he says, we focus on connecting local knowledge and practice in the Antwerp region, innovative and practical applicability, based upon the concrete knowledge of the intrapreneurs, through a multi-stakeholder and multidisciplinary approach.
On the 24th of October, the official UN day, Antwerp-ITCCO will connect the local knowledge and practice with international best practices and UN standards.
