Bianchini says that the school's main goal for their students is for them to improve their posture, balance, spatial sense and self-esteem, in addition to breaking barriers and prejudices about people with handicaps.

A member of “El Sistema” plays on a harp, as part of its “New Members” program, next to a newborn baby at a public maternity hospital in Caracas October 1, 2014. In a nation awash with guns and with one of the world's highest murder rates, Venezuela's hugely successful classical music program, known as “El Sistema” (The System), has for decades sought to counteract poor children's exposure to violence with the gentle and inspiring influence of classical music. It used to only admit children aged at least 5. But under its latest “New Members” projects, hundreds of smaller infants can receive voice lessons, musical initiation with paper-made instruments, and free concerts, at its base in Caracas.

A woman walks past a graffiti depicting a flag of Novorossiya (New Russia) in Belgrade, Serbia, October 11, 2014. On Thursday, guns, tanks and planes will be back in Belgrade, now capital of Serbia, for a Liberation Day parade held four days early to accommodate the guest of honour – Russian President Vladimir Putin, en route to a summit in Milan. Liberation Day marks the Nazi retreat across the River Sava on October 20, 1944, leaving the capital to the Red Army and Yugslav Partisan guerillas, and has been commemorated by memorials rather than military parades after Yugoslavia split with Josef Stalin's Soviet Union in 1948. It is a gesture with huge symbolism in a Cold-War-style East-West split over Ukraine that has forced Serbia, politically indebted to Russia but seeing its economic future with the European Union, into a delicate balancing act.
