  • Reluctant Saints "Long Drive" Album Review
    PRLog - Global Press Release Distribution Reluctant Saints "Long Drive" Album Review Should you buy this album? With a quickness. "How will Reluctant Saints be Live? Phenomenal! Do not miss a live concert or show from these guys, and ladies--when you hear Brian Cameron sing live, he'll buckle your knees like a cheap lawn chair. Jan. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- Tuesday, 04 January 2011 03:57 Written by Giuseppe Colato The long awaited, highly anticipated album "Long Drive" from Atlanta, Georgia's Reluctant Saints is finally here-and well worth the wait! A Song by Song Tour of "Long Drive": 1-Blue Ridge Baby--(written by Brian Cameron) My Take; "Blue Ridge Baby" comes right out of the gate with a lead guitar solo that blends right into the funk/country/rock/pop groove of the song. Then comes Brian Cameron laying down funky-soulful vocals about a girl that "is everything to him." The song is about getting back to your girl--your perfect girl, and nothing will stop you from getting back to her. The song then breaks into a short and sweet guitar solo that blends right back into the song's groove. Rock solid drums, sweetly layed down keys and a bass line that never stops groovin. This song is one of those songs that can make it on many a different chart--so much so, it makes you want this "Blue Ridge Baby" that the song is about. This will end up one of the most popular songs off of this album. It just has that "it." 2-Shine On Me--(written by Brian Cameron) My Take: This song comes right out of the gate with some sweet slide guitar that brings in the pop/county groove.

  • Catalyst 2016 Edition II
    Island Cat Resources and Adoption / icraeastbay.org The ICRA Catal st 2016 Edition II zuli teddy penny Please Consider Volunteering No Effort is Too Small Imagine the scene. Twenty-five cats in traps lined up in a warehouse awaiting transport to a mass spay/neuter clinic. If that’s not a difficult scene to fathom, then it will surely shock you that all 25 cats came from the same yard in Oakland in April 2016 through a collective and collaborative trapping effort by ICRA and Feral Change volunteers. All were spayed and neutered in an attempt to quickly and effectively slow the population growth in one neighborhood thanks to the San Francisco SPCA’s Community Cats Spay/Neuter program via a grant. The project was ongoing as of early-June. Although these 25 community cats are now fixed, we are caring for nine new-born kittens pulled from the same yard that weekend. These kittens will be in foster care until they are old enough to spay/neuter and then be placed into adoptive homes. Many hours of labor and love have gone into this project already! Zack, Zuli, Teddy, and Penny are just a few of the nine kittens who are very happy that we made the effort on their behalf. So too are their moms, dads, and cousins who will live a better life not producing litter after litter! Projects this dramatically large are uncommon, but volunteering with ICRA almost always involves some combination of trapping, transport, outreach to neighbors to educate them about community cat management, coordination with collaborative partners, including spay/neuter clinics, fostering and adoption.
