She also knew she could gain support from her mentor Mary Griffin and from the Punch Family Foundation (PFF).Stamos Martin, like Georgiana, was a Booker T. Washington high school student, and while he was excited about his acceptance to the Aspen Music Festival, he knew the $7,000 price tag would be a major hurdle. He called upon a small support team that included Gayle Punch of the Punch Family Foundation.Georgiana is now a sophomore student at Converse College in Spartanburg, South Carolina and aspires to attend the Harlaxton Music Festival (HMF) in Harlaxton, England. The $4,000 tuition does not include an additional $800 for airfare. On her own, Georgiana has managed to save $1,000 towards this trip. Unfortunately, the HMF offers no scholarships. Georgiana, a violist, is a sophomore music business major and former student of the Young Strings Program of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra.Stamos and Georgiana each received $1,000 scholarships from the PFF to help with their music education -- scholarships they both attest have made all the difference in their access and entry to these institutions.The experience of having a musician pursue a goal of being in a symphony orchestra taught PFF founder, Gayle Punch, many lessons. The greatest was the importance of giving back. In 2006, the Foundation was able to give a $1,000 to Byron Martin who now studies the viola and music composition at an Oklahoma College. This year's challenge is to raise funds to assist music students like Stamos and Georgiana reach their potential. While most music programs offer scholarships, there are often additional costs which are not covered. These additional costs are often the prime roadblocks to economically limited minority students."It's important to help as many music students as possible if we are to see diversity in the orchestral programs across America," says Richmond Punch. Richmond is a violist and violinist who donates proceeds from all CD sales to the foundation (these can be purchased at the foundation website). He also donates his services to the annual benefit recital.Contact: richmond@richmondpunch.comAlso read the event I created with the location info and more specifics. Thanks!!

Movies to Video Games ReviewsReview #14Lemony Snicket's: A Series of Unfortunate Events for the Personal Computer (PC) is fully reviewed and analyzed as compared to the actual movie itself.Feel free to comment. More movies to video games reviews coming soon.. suggestions and feedback welcome and encouraged.In the means of saving space the score tallies used to get to the final score are listed here instead of in the review itself. They are on a 1-10 scale with 10 being the best score possible:Story Accuracy to the Movie 5.0(The characters and locations are there, but after that the situations become stretched and barely resembling what was seen in the movie. The cutscenes tie it all together but if it weren't for that you would have no idea how it relates to the film due to what we are doing for most of the game.)Music Soundtrack Accuracy to the Movie's 1.0(As is often the case in recent movie adaptations, the music is generic and not based off of the movies soundtrack. I don't think it matters too much but it may have added something that just was lacking in this game for the most part)Game Difficulty 4.5(The game is way too easy. Click and point with a search button that finds everything for you easily. The bosses are a joke as are the levels which are all the same thing done slightly different. There is very little challenge found here.)Overall Fun 3.0(The game gets boring and old fast. After two or three levels you will get the idea of what the game has to offer and its more of the same for the rest of the way through. The game ends too quickly and you don't feel like it's the movie or book jumping out at you at any point. Probably won't be replaying this too much after its completed.)Final Score: 4.25Below Average
