For the first time in nearly 100 years, when the horses and their riders canter into the Will Rogers Memorial Center on Jan. 13 for the beginning of the 2017 Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, there will be no live orchestra to greet them.
Quote"(It's) very surreal right now to know that come January, people will be paying their ticket price, many in anticipation of hearing the traditional old marches, gallops, fanfares and overtures played by a live 20-piece orchestra, but instead will now be hearing a laptop," wrote Stitzel's son Rich, who played drums in the band, in a Facebook post. "It was the last live rodeo band in the world, and there was a lot of pride in the Fort for that tradition."

At Mass, 550 priests and 250 deacons fanned out to give Communion. Aides held yellow-and-white umbrellas to signal their locations. From the pope's altar near the Art Museum steps to as far east as 17th Street, crowds surged forward to receive the sacrament. A woman near 21st Street shouted to a priest, "Father! My sister is pregnant!"
The priest heard and gave the pregnant woman a wafer, but many others who extended their arms to receive the host left empty-handed.

QuoteIn truth, gluten-free “hosts” are hardly a new thing: they’ve been around for almost a decade, but the Vatican found them unacceptable, ABC News reports. In 2012, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops wrote in a statement that “it is impossible to consecrate a host made of something other than wheat and water.” (The reason: Jesus ate wheat bread with his apostles during the Last Supper.)

A moment of silence observed by people wearing the traditional folk costumes of the Gail Valley in Austria.
Naples, Italy (July 14, 2005) – Navy Chaplain Dave McBeth, left, leads an informal gathering of personnel aboard Naval Support Activity (NSA) Naples during a Europe-wide coordinated two-minute moment of silence held throughout the European Union in relation to the 2005 London Bombings.
A moment of silence (or an x minute silence) is a period of silent contemplation, prayer, reflection, or meditation. Similar to flying a flag at half-mast, a moment of silence is often a gesture of respect, particularly in mourning for those who have died recently or as part of a tragic historical event.
Silent prayer and worship, including moments of silence practiced during other group activities have been practiced by Quakers for more than 300 years. Since silence contains no statements or assumptions concerning beliefs and requires no understanding of language to interpret, it is more easily accepted and used than a spoken prayer or observance when persons of different religious and cultural backgrounds participate together. In the colonial period Pennsylvania Quakers and Lenape Native Americans worshiped silently together on several occasions, yet neither group thought that this implied that they had altered their traditional belief system in doing so. Over time, the effectiveness of Quaker-style silence for non-sectarian and non-controversial public observances has led to its almost universal use in the English-speaking world as well as other plural societies. This is also the case within many institutions where diverse groups are expected to participate but not necessarily share beliefs such as in government, schools, businesses and the military.
Many people in the Commonwealth observe a moment of silence, often two minutes, at 11:00 am on November 11 each year (Armistice Day) to remember sacrifices of members of the armed forces and of civilians in times of war. The period of silence is essentially a ritualized night vigil bracketed by the traditional bugle call "The Last Post"" and "The Rouse", which is also called "Reveille" in the United States. The Last Post was the traditional bugle call at the end of the day, and the Rouse started the military day. For military purposes, the traditional night vigil over the slain was not just to ensure they were indeed dead and not unconscious or in a coma, but also to guard them from being mutilated or despoiled, or dragged off by scavengers. This makes the ceremony not so much an act of remembrance but a pledge to guard the honour of war dead. The act is enhanced by the use of dedicated cenotaphs (literally Greek for "empty tomb") and the laying of wreaths—the traditional means of bestowing high honours in Ancient Greece and Rome. Some schools and colleges across the UK often sound the school bell or fire alarm to start and end the period of silence, similar to when Israel sound an air raid siren during the two minute silence.
One minute is a common length of time for the commemoration, though other periods of time may be chosen, normally connected in some way with the event being commemorated (there might be a minute given for every death commemorated, for example). During the moment of silence, participants may typically bow their heads, remove hats, and refrain from speaking or moving places for the duration. A person officiating or presiding over the gathering will be responsible for the declaring and timing of the period of silence.
In Israel, moments of silence are held on Yom HaShoah in memory of the victims of the Holocaust, and Yom Hazikaron in memory of fallen soldiers and terror victims. The moments of silence are marked by the nationwide sounding of a steady siren. During this time, most Israelis stand at attention, and most of the country comes to a standstill as people pay silent tribute to the dead.
A moment of silence may be accompanied by other acts of symbolic significance, such as the tolling of bells, the release of doves or balloons, or a performance of the Last Post.

An Indian paramilitary trooper guards the deserted main road during a curfew following violence that has left over 36 people dead and thousands injured, on July 15, 2016, in Srinagar, Kashmir, India. Fierce protests in Indian-administered Kashmir over the killing of a young rebel commander Burhan Wan have left at least 36 people dead and over 3000 injured since last Friday. It is the worst violence in the area since 2010. Protests have triggered a heavy crackdown by Indian government forces including many strict curfews.

Mr Hollande said the attack was of "an undeniable terrorist nature".
He warned that the battle against terrorism would be long, as France faced an enemy "that will continue to attack those people and those countries that count liberty as an essential value".
Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said the attack bore the hallmarks of jihadist terrorism.
Lahouaiej-Bouhlel was known to the police as a petty criminal, but was "totally unknown to intelligence services... and was never flagged for signs of radicalisation," the prosecutor added.
