United in support...
From Hurricane Sandy to Sandy Hook, from the Boston bombings to Philadelphia's building collapse this past June, this has been the year of the first responder.
We invite you to stand with American communities as the World Affairs Council presents its 2013 Atlas Award in recognition of, and gratitude to, the men and women who so bravely respond when disaster strikes. The Council invites these heroes to be guests at this special event as we pay tribute to those who serve our communities by being the first on the scene in critical situations.
And acknowledging sacrifice...
This unique event will acknowledge, in a meaningful way, the sacrifices made by first responders. To this end, your generosity will be reflected in a gift to the Newtown Lions Club Foundation -- Sandy Hook Elementary Fund and the Philadelphia Hero Thrill Show.
Governor of Connecticut Dannel P. Malloy accepted the 2013 Atlas Award on behalf of our nation's first responders.
The Council thanks its sponsors for this event:
AMETEK, Inc., CDI Corporation, PECO, Progressive Business Publications, The Satell Center for Executive Education, UGI Corporation, Aqua, and technology partner Comcast/NBC10.
This event was part of Global Philly 2013(tm)
Moreton Corbet was my main target for the afternoon and despite my later than planned arrival St Bartholomew's church was happily still open. It is a relatively small building but packed full of interest and easily one of the main highlights of the day. It sits close to the dramatic ruins of Moreton Corbet Castle, which stands immediately south of the churchyard.
The tower is very late medieval, begun in the 1530s but not finished till 1769. Inside the nave and chancel at first sight appear fairly humble, but the chancel gradually reveals it's gilded decoration and the spacious south aisle is full of monuments, many elaborate wall tablets and two large tombs with effigies; the older tomb of Richard Corbet (d.1513) and wife has been recoloured, and has weepers all around (some difficult to see owing to the general clutter engulfing two sides of it), all looking rather restored. The other tomb is of Sir Richard Corbet (d.1567) and his wife, again coloured and adorned with intriguing heraldic motifs. A small, almost domestic looking chapel opens up to the south and contains a further huge wall tablet to another Sir Richard (d.1691), all oddly proportioned with the biggest cherub head I've ever seen on such a position with a bust above under a curiously pointed arch.
The main interest in the chancel is rather more recent, thanks to it's makeover by Sir Ninian Comper which endowed it with some rich gilded stencilling, a tester canopy, new glass and further ornamental detailing including two small colonettes borne on the backs of miniature alabaster elephants.
This church is a real gem and easily one of the most enjoyable in Shropshire.
Pakistan, 2010: Children attend class at a UNICEF-supported tent school, in a camp for people displaced the country’s worst flooding in decades. UNICEF is also providing medical care, immunizations, hygiene kits, safe drinking water, sanitation services and shelter in flood-affected areas. Still, some 17 million people – 8.6 million of whom are children – remain threatened by malnutrition and waterborne diseases.

The bud opened slowly into this beauty...
The peony is the only genus in the flowering plant family Paeoniaceae. They are native to Asia, Southern Europe and western North America but grow very well here too, Peonies are actually very easy to grow; once established they can tolerate drought and suffer from very few diseases.
Colours range from pure white through baby pinks and palest peaches to clear deep pink and darkest rich maroon. There is also a pale yellow but it is rare.
Peonies are only available between late May and early July, so get them while you can!
They are very thirsty flowers, so make sure you top up the vase or bowl.
The Greeks believed they could cure over 20 ailments and were found in every monastery garden.
Peonies have been cultivated for over 2,000 years, more for their medicinal qualities than for ornament.
The Japanese protect the earliest peony blooms from the snow by protecting them with individual small thatched shelters. Some geishas used to wear special peony colours.
The Chinese name for peony is "sho yu" which means "most beautiful" and they idolised this flower.
The common thread is that the flower always denotes luxury and indulgence.
I again tried to photograph them with lots of drama!

Thousands of university, college and school students – joined by workers – are marching in London and Manchester against Tory cuts to education, fee rises and attacks on jobs and services.
The revolution in Tunisia and uprising in Egypt have clearly inspired the marches. Marchers have chanted, “Egypt, Egypt everywhere.”
London
Aisha, an FE student from Camden in north London said, “I’ve been on all the demonstrations, but some of my friends are here who haven’t been out on the protests before.
“I like the slogan ‘This is only the beginning’, because it’s going to be a long fight against this government.”
Theo, a school student from south east London, took part in the Day X walkouts last year. He said, “Lots of people who want to go to university won’t be able to and people will definitely be affected by the cuts to EMA [Education Maintenance Allowance]. The government is making the wrong people pay – the bankers are getting hundreds of thousands in bonuses.”
For workers, the student protests have been an inspiration.
A GMB rep joining the protest in London said, “I’m here to show solidarity with the students. I’ve got a daughter who has just gone through university and there is no way she would have been able to afford £9,000 a year fees.
“I’m also here to say that I don’t believe in these cuts. We’ve got to stick together workers and students. I think that the TUC demo on the 26 March can give people confidence to fight.”
UCU lecturer Vicky Margree works at the University of Brighton. She said, “We face 100 percent cut in arts and humanities funding which will hit universities hard. And the new fees will make university unaffordable for the majority of people.”
Kelly Rogers, a Unison organiser, said, “Unless we show solidarity with younger people we may as well give up. Students have led the way and enthused workers, showing us how to fight.”
Solidarity with the Egyptian uprising
In London the mood was electric as up to a thousand students joined the many hundreds of people already protesting in solidarity with the Egyptian people outside the embassy off Park Lane.
Chants of “Solidarity, solidarity,” “London and Cairo unite and fight” and “Hey ho Mubarak has to go” are ringing through the air.
One man on the original protest said, “I can’t believe that all these young people have come to support us. This makes us feel even stronger. I can’t wait to send the pictures of all you British people who have come to support us to people back home.”
Before reaching the embassy, the protest stopped outside the Tory HQ at Millbank – a focus of student anger and protests last year – as students chanted, “Tory scum, here we come.”

Donate to the 100 Club of Arizona in memory of the Granite Hotshot Firefighters.
The 100 Club of Arizona www.100Club.org. Providing support to public safety for over 40 years.
The nation suffered a horrific loss on Sunday, June 30, 2013, when 19 firefighters of the Prescott Fire Department's Granite Mountain Hotshot crew were lost while battling the Yarnell Fire in Yarnell, AZ. These brave young heroes will be forever in our hearts. The 100 Club of Arizona responded with the standard line of duty death assistance of $15,000 to each of the 19 families. The 100 Club continues to assess the needs of each family, and will support them in the immediate and far futures. The 100 Club is also supporting the emergency operations team and all fire department personnel on scene. Donations made to the Survivors Fund will be covering these costs, and they will continue to assess the needs of the community and will be there to assist them.
