It can be read as if 'help' wasn't there but it never crossed my mind the first time I read it. So personally, I don't think it's too bad Smile

The mind doubts, but the heart never does.

I always think rape must be such a difficult thing to prove these days.  Lines must be very blurred at times.

I think its that it can be read as volunteers are needed to help to rape some victims when its actually they need volunteers to help with victims of rape...

Anyways, I'm no journo, ask your own news team bitches.

That's correct and what I was saying. I just figured if someone couldn't see it, the quickest way to explain is by having them read it without the 'help'.

How's this for falling-through-the-net editing:

A few years ago, I worked in an exceptionally high-needs class, and one of our students with Autism had a mother who was incredibly sensitive and over-protective. He was an intelligent non-verbal young man with some keyboarding abilities, and I encouraged him to print his journal at the end of the day to share his school day with his parents.

More often than not, my colleagues and I we were fighting fires, and weren't always able to cross the t's and dot the i's.

We always tried to have interesting daily activities, and one day we had a Musical Therapist visit our class with her musical instruments to interact with our students.

The next day I had a frantic call from the mother.
My student had typed "the rapist came to play with us."

I'm not making this up. Very Happy

Haha, I never noticed that!

It was a great week for David Rice - qualified for a challenger, reached R2 and took someone ranked 500 places above him to two close sets.

Tommy!  I did think about you when the tennis moved to the US Open.  Did you manage to see any of it live?  Are you well?  Good that you haven't forgotten about us. Very Happy
