NEW HAVEN, Connecticut (AP): Play was stopped and the venue evacuated at the New Haven Open on Tuesday after an earthquake that originated in Virginia shook the stadium on the Yale campus, sending fans bolting to the aisles and delaying play for more than two hours."I never had experienced that before," Vesnina said."It was so weird.On the court, we didn't feel anything, but I saw the upper level, and it was shaking.I said, 'Oh, my God, what is going to happen?' I was really scared."

The 5.8-magnitude earthquake centered northwest of Richmond, Virginia, shook much of Washington D.C., and was felt as far north as Rhode Island and New York City.

After evacuating more than 4,000 people from the stadium, New Haven's fire marshal and building inspector checked the structure for damage and declared it structurally sound.

Play resumed at 4:15 p.m.when chair umpire Sandie French said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the resumption of play of a match suspended because of an earthquake." Fans in the stands chuckled, and Vesnina then prepared to serve.

Vesnina was leading 2-0 when the quake hit and went to win 6-4, 2-6, 6-4.

"It turned out to be just like a two-hour rain delay," said tournament director Anne Worcester.When the quake struck, fans weren't quite sure what to make of it.

Bob Pallaziolla, from Danvers, Ma*sachusetts, said he thought there might have been a crash outside the stadium.

"Then there was another shake, and another shake and I realize it was an earthquake," he said."It wasn't a truck that hit the stadium or somebody underneath us.It was actually an earthquake.The stadium cleared pretty quickly.Within five seconds people were running."

Gerard Murphy, 69, from Guilford, Connecticut, was sitting on a deck in a hospitality suite at the time.He felt the movement and thought perhaps youngsters were shaking the deck.

"Then I looked down at the fans in the seats in front of me and they were all leaving their seats and rushing up the aisle," he said."I asked the girl for a beer on the way out."In the boys' event, last year's overall category runners-up Jeremiah Kim will lead the Malaysian challenge while Isza Fariza Ismail will be tasked with winning the girls' title in the absence of Kelly who has opted out due to a hectic schedule.Sarah is bidding to become the first golfer in the tournament's history to retain the overall crown.

Pimples!!!!!!!!!?
This past month I have had an outbreak of pimples and I need to know how to get rid of them!!!!Are there any way to cure them without using products???Oh and can you please tell me what causes pimples!Thanks sooo much!

Answer by joshua
dont scratch or touch ur pimples, because that would just get more bacteria in them and the more bacteria you have the longer it takes to cure or you could just pop them.and junk food causes breakouts

Answer by Alwyn C
Sometimes they are caused by eating too much junk foods and chocolates or chips. They can also be caused by something in your body going wrong. It's what they call an outward sign of something wrong inside. They can also be caused by not keeping your face clean. You can usually get some kind of cream at the supermarket, but if this doesn't work , I suggest you see your doctor.

Answer by Jacky S
Clogged pores cause pimples. Seriously, I hate to sound like Jessica Simpson or P.Diddy, but you should try proactiv. It really works.

Answer by mickiariana
Wash your face twice a day with a good cleanser.I myself use Aveeno and Olay.Also rubbing toothpaste on ur zits will help dry them up.Dont touch them because it can cause irritation and bigger zits.Also, one more thing NEVER POP PIMPLES!!!!It causes scarring and leaves u with a biiger mess than u began with!

Answer by luckybuny07
oils in your skin causes it go to your doctor to get a prsicriibtion i got benza clien or something like that it works really good

Answer by antair_x13
don't pick at your zits!you can go to your local famacy or convienence store and get Cetaphil.it's done wonders for my skin.
keep in mind that you zits may be due to stress or diet women sometimes break out when they are PMSing or mentruating.(people say diet doesn't do any thing to you skin but it can depending on how your body reacts to what you eat.) when you wash use something that cleans you skin with out leaving it overly dry.getting rid of zits and then have to deal with dry facial skin is not fun.it it persist talk to you doctor about it.they may have some suggestions.

Chief Prosecutor Concerned About Yerevan Robberies

Prosecutor-General Aghvan Hovsepian expressed serious concern on Wednesday about a series of armed robberies in Yerevan that have targeted wealthy people, among them a former local government chief and an ex-parliamentarian.

Hovsepian said the Armenian police and other law-enforcement bodies will step up their efforts to track down a single gang which they believe is responsible for those crimes.

The police have reported five virtually identical robberies in the last few months.Their latest victim was the family of Napoleon Azizian, a businessman and former parliament deputy.

A group of masked broke into their mansion in Yerevan’s Kilikia neighborhood early on Sunday.They beat up Azizian and his wife before stealing cash and other valuables reportedly worth about $300,000.

Knowing When To Move On

Wynter Wolf

Everything changes.

The seasons change, people change, and the earth is always changing.Flowers grow and bloom and then die, and so do we.It is impossible to resist change.

But I still do resist.When things are exactly where I want them, I never want anything to change, but I know this is futile and sooner or later I will have to change, as well.

Lately, I have been stuck in a rut and only seem to be getting worse.I haven’t done anything Wicca-like in quite some time, because whenever I tried to I felt this dark presence or something telling me not to, as if the gods have turned away from me.

So I backed off for a while.I changed rooms in my house, and got a new desk that I placed directly under my window.So far, this alone has helped me; I have a direct view of my backyard, so I can watch birds hop everywhere and see plants and flowers grow.Sometimes coyotes pa*s and ravens will circle overhead.When the sun rises, I am the first to see it, and this has made me think of Eos, goddess of dawn.She is the sister of Selene, whom I have always felt drawn to.

A little after my eighteenth birthday, my friend gave me some presents.He drew me a picture of a pentagram with a sword and a chalice going through it, and a sun near the sword and a moon near the chalice.He also drew a few rune symbols on it and lent me his book of runes so that I can learn and decipher them.

He also made me a necklace, which is a chunk of amethyst wrapped in a gold chord that also has runes twisted into it.And last, but by no means least, he gave me a hand-carved athame.

It used to be a knife sharpener, but he sharpened it himself and then carved several rune messages into it.I don’t remember all of them, but I know that one of them that surround the handle is «blessed be» and the one going down the blade is my real name.It was specifically made to work with my energy, and I get this tingling up my right arm whenever I hold it.If I close my eyes I only have to concentrate a little bit to feel the forest where the wooden handle came from and hear the sound of the blade being sharpened.

I once read long ago that you should wait for the right athame to come to you, and I have waited for four years now.During that time, I used an Irish dagger as a stand-in, although the energy about it has been feeling wrong lately.I know that my birthday athame was the one I have been waiting to use, and on the next full moon I will consecrate, cleanse, and empower it, along with my necklace.

I visited my local Wiccan store recently, just because I haven’t in so long.There, I found a rune bag that I was instantly drawn to, behind the stand of statues for Hinduism and Buddhism.I have only used them once, and it was to ask if it is time to part ways with my current boyfriend.

I know I am supposed to use them for magickal purposes, but this has been bothering me for some time now.We have been together for over a year now, and during a recent weekend a few weeks ago, I was happy with him but still wondered if it would last.We are the kind of couple that gets into a fight and goes through a rough area every other week, and usually my depression is the cause of it.I love him, but I’m wondering if it’s time to move on and possibly try again in the future.One of my fellow employees gave me hope; he and his college sweetheart decided to part ways, and nine years later they found each other again and married.

The way things go with me, I tend to tell myself that if things aren’t working out then the universe doesn’t want them to work out, and perhaps sees a better alternative for me.This is a very difficult decision for me, however, because I want to hold on tight to him and never let go.The same employee asked if I was being selfish, to which I grudgingly agreed.But I know my boyfriend desperately wants to hold on, too.It’s like we’re at a harbor, clinging to each other because a storm (change) is threatening to separate us.Instead of throwing ourselves into the storm, we hold on as hard as we can.

Resisting change is futile, and giving in to it will only make things easier.

I wanted to focus on self-love lately, as well.I have been told several times that you cannot accept love into your life if you do not love yourself.So I have been thinking that if I let my boyfriend go and focus on loving myself, maybe, when the time is right, we will meet up again.Or, I will end up happier and he will, too.

While I was at that store, I found a book, Wicca for Beginners by Thea Sabin.I collect books for beginners in the area of Wicca because everyone has his/her own approach to the religion and I am always curious to how I will feel about it.By reading other authors and beginner books, I have broadened my horizons, so that it is easier to choose my own path.

How are things changing in your lives?How are you approaching it?

Daily Living

Society tends to view life as a succession of high points.We look forward to the next big thing, whether it’s an event, a holiday, a vacation, or a job promotion.Those high points make an outline for our lives and we look forward to those exciting high points.However, this roller coaster view of life discounts those in between times.

Life is about more than just the peaks.ThoseВ ordinary, seemingly mundane,В times are just as much a part of life as the exciting peaks.Living with mindfulness allows us to live daily and enjoy life.We no longer find ourselves living in fast forward, anxiously awaiting the next peak of the roller coaster.We begin to enjoy the quiet moments and find an inner peace that resonates with our souls.

ANNALILA: Fasting for Anna, barefoot farmer pulls cart 400 km to Mumbai!

Vijay Balaso Jadhav, of Sangli district, started from Ralegan Siddhi on August 17 and reached the city on Sunday evening.He has covered a distance of around 400 km to express solidarity with the 74-year-old Gandhian. On his way to Mumbai, Jadhav said he met hundreds of people at bus stops and railway stations and educated them on the Lokpal Bill, urging them to join the movement.Interestingly, a close look at the hand-pulled cart reveals a garlanded photo of Jadhav.

Asked why he adorned his own photo, he said, "I have come to fight the war against corruption and the enemy can do everything to kill us and crush our movement.So I have garlanded my own photo to send out a clear message that I am not afraid of death.I have already told my family to learn to live without me."
