This is the piano piece that I'm performing and competing with in 2007's Kiwanis Competition in Vancity!

Hey everyone. As you all can see from my recent posts, I am now going to bring you worthy games, much like how Noob123 is giving out the Inuyasha episodes like no tomorrow. Every day, hopefully, I will post another worthy game on this site! Or sometime, maybe 2, if I'm not too pissed.

This is another copy paste job, but this is very distressing, even if you don't play violin. Just for everyone's information, an average Stradivarius violin is worth about 2 million each. American. Yes, you read that right. A piece of flimsy wood is worth more than your house, most likely. Anyways, here the article.

Stolen Family Heirloom
Stolen in Neustadtl/Straz Czechoslovakia
November 22, 1945

"Something is gnawing on my soul," confesses Frank Kraus. His beloved 1734 Stradivarius violin, a family heirloom given to him by his grandfather when he was six years old was stolen from him 15 years later.

In 1945, Mr. Kraus was arranging to transport 16 family items back to Austria, the articles having been stored at Neustadtl (Straz) #131, the site of a well-known restaurant Zum Weissen Rössl ('to the White Horse'). The restaurant owner, also Mayor of the village, cautioned Mr. Kraus to get written permission in advance, which he set out to do.

As part of that process, three men in civilian clothes, who identified themselves as Gendarmerie Post of Straz, examined the articles. Documents were signed by two of the officials and all articles were verified against a list itemizing them. At some point during the examination, the Stradivarius was removed by one of the men and carried to another room, whereupon someone began playing the instrument without first tuning it.

"It was as if my violin was crying."

Mr. Kraus has not seen his violin, its two bows, or its case since.

Believing that no intelligent person would destroy such an instrument, he pleas for the holder to return his Stradivarius. Mr. Kraus feels no acrimony toward the current bearer, since he or she may be unaware of being in possession of stolen property. He just wants his violin back and hopes that the bearer's compassion will return it to him.

Anyone with information about this property or who is unable to verify the origins of a Stradivarius in their possession, should call the North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP at 250-748-5522, quoting the Interpol Ottawa file #I.P.27/98 I.P.28858. Those preferring an alternative method are welcome to send an email, which will be forwarded directly to Mr. Kraus.

This is not my own contribution, but copied from the forum. I just put it here cause I feel this is something worth recognition.

UCLA cops tasered a student who refused to show ID in Powell Library. They threatened nearby students with tasering if they interfered. A student captured video of the assault with a cameraphone. I hope the campus cops go to jail over this.

The CSOs left, returning minutes later, and police officers arrived to escort the student out. By this time the student had begun to walk toward the door with his backpack when an officer approached him and grabbed his arm, at which point the student told the officer to let him go. A second officer then approached the student as well.

The student began to yell "get off me," repeating himself several times.

It was at this point that the officers shot the student with a Taser for the first time, causing him to fall to the floor and cry out in pain. The student also told the officers he had a medical condition...

Laila Gordy, a fourth-year economics student who was present in the library during the incident, said police officers threatened to shoot her with a Taser when she asked an officer for his name and his badge number.

And here's the video:
