25000 Violent Deaths in Venezuela during year 2013, thanks to gangs, crime, drug dealers, and cartels. Venezuela is one of the most dangerous and violent countries in Latin America due to the extremely high crime rate.

If you plan to travel to Venezuela, it is advised that you use a lot of caution and try your best not to attract any attention when in the Venezuelan streets and locals. Do not carry fancy cell phones, do not carry any type of jewelry, and try to dress up as simple as you can.

Violence in Venezuela is extremely high. Some gangs actually kill people for no reason at all other than to prove / test new gang members.

25000 Violent Deaths in Venezuela during year 2013, thanks to gangs and crime. Careful if travelling to Venezuela.

Camp Rince Ceol

If you are an Irish Dancer, age 9-17, and you're looking for something to do this summer, check out Camp Rince Ceol! A week-long summer camp for aspiring students of Irish dance, our primary focus is to bring Irish dancers from around the world together in a non-competitive atmosphere to share their love of Irish dance and culture. This year, in addition to our four separate week-long programs in East Durham, NY (July 18-August 13), we've added a week in Santa Barbara, CA (June 20-25). Instructors this summer will include Tara Barry and Susan Ginetty from Riverdance and Sarah Clarke from LOTD, as well as camp directors Tony Davoren and Sheila Ryan, both formerly of Riverdance, and many more. For more information, check out our website at www.irishdancecamp.com, call our office at 337-662-5463, or send us an email at thomondgat@aol.com.

What are your favorite ID quotes? Mine are:

3. If you can't click with the Reel Troupe, get off the stage.

2. Kick your butt or I'll kick it for you (<--cracks me up)

1. Shut up and dance!!!**

**Personally, I think alot of people should do this. ID has gone way too political. I don't think its as fun as it used to be.

the western region is not hte freindliest of regions actually i would say that is the least fiendly of any in the US. but that all comes from its leadership and the control she and christina ranum have over the message board there. by getting rid of gavan they have exposed themselves to a bigger problem in fearon and comerford and i hope both schools do really well and empty the classes of the also rans there who until gavan arrived sat back on their laurels and let our region rot. theonly home bred school of note is claddagh and i hope they flourish in southern la. if they do lose their students to these new teachers in la and sf it could not happen to a nicer bunch. and parents you pay these people which it took me a long time to realise. if you want to go to a feis who pays these peoples wages you do so you choose not your despotic teacher

hi there! i'm wondering if it's ok to write on here if you're a 'resting' teaching assistant, was a champion dancer but now retired from the scene as of last year? because that's me! hello there! i love ID but like the posters so far I do get frustrated with the politics. I even had reason to write and complain to the ID commission last year and did I even receive a reply? nope! not a word back - how rude is that? i'm having a rest from any involvement with dancing as i got so sick of being used by the teacher i was helping...this teacher was a right one i can tell you - emotive displays beyond belief, manipulation, lies, the LOT!!! I mean I am talking one hugely wounded human being here...and did this teacher abuse her pupils and parents! oh yes! bad behaviour seems to run thru ID like an electrical current! why is this oh please tell me! the majority seem like nice people with normal and moderate views and yet the few noisy totally hypocritical, hysterical and morally bankrupt seem to run things! i have now decided to have a break from something i love as i couldn't stand it any longer i am, however, thinking of starting a small non registered class locally just to keep my love of it bubbling away and to make small children happy - but just THINKING at the moment....good luck to you all who visit this board with your dancing - keep your chins up, eyes level and let your spirits soar!

I hope this board that is for venting helps to lighten the load of clutter on other boards who are not as tolerant. I personally like hearing that I'm not the only one with ID issues, so bring it on!

~~Happy Posting~~
