June 17, 2009: the third day of public testimony at the Anchorage Assembly on AO 2009-64, which would provide equal protection from discrimination in Anchorage on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity/expression.
The kids in the wine-colored shirts are Youth from the Mississippi Avenue Baptist Church (MABC) of Aurora, Colorado, which visited Anchorage from June 14–22, 2009 for their Youth Mission 2009. On two of the days of their visit, June 16 and 17, the Anchorage Assembly was hearing public testimony on the Anchorage equal rights ordinance. So what did the adult leadership from their church have these kids from another state do during their youth mission? - Wave signs urging permitting continued discrimination against citizens of a different city in another state than they even live in.
The MABC youth mission was was hosted by the Anchorage Baptist Temple, whose pastor, Jerry Prevo, is a principal leader in opposition to the Anchorage equal rights ordinance. They were bused to the Loussac Library by ABT, and the signs they carried were printed by Alaska Family Council.
Victorian Labor MPs joined thousands of people around Australia calling for better pay for women working in the community sector.

Church of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir.
Address: Transportnaya Street 54, Voronezh, Voronezh Oblast, Russia.
This church is one of the larger modern Orthodox churches in Voronezh and was established during the post-Soviet revival of religious life in the city.
The church's publicly listed year of foundation is 1999.
It belongs to the wave of new Orthodox church construction that took place in Voronezh after the collapse of the Soviet Union, when many new parishes were established to serve expanding residential districts.
The church is dedicated to Saint Vladimir the Great (c. 958-1015), the ruler of Kievan Rus' who accepted Christianity and initiated the Baptism of Rus' in 988. Because of this, he is known in Orthodoxy as Equal-to-the-Apostles. Churches dedicated to him commemorate the Christianisation of the Eastern Slavic world.
The church is notable for its striking blue-and-white exterior, multiple domes, and large bell tower, making it one of the most recognisable modern Orthodox churches in Voronezh. This appearance can be seen in contemporary photographs of the church.
The parish is very active and maintains its own church websites.
Publicly available descriptions mention that it functions as:
An active parish church.
A centre of worship and religious education.
A cultural and spiritual centre for the surrounding district.
In 2012 we should not be afraid of diversity. Being 'different' is not something to be scared of. Everyone should be proud to be whoever they want to be and to LOVE whoever they want to love. That's what bravery means for me: not to worry about what people say and to be brave enough to stand up for yourself.
(p.s.any references to Larry Stylinson is not random at all LOL)
