Issue: The system administrator has limited the computers you can log on with. Try logging on at a different computer.
Cause: If system administrators restricted the "Logon Workstation" in users properties. (Please see below snapshot)
Note: In below snapshot for user "demo1111" only two workstations are allowed from "Log On To.."
Solution: To resolve this issue, system administrators need to add the user PC name in "Logon Workstations".( see below snapshot)
Note: System administrators need to manually enter the "Logon Workstation" respective to each domain users.
Note: In case of Propalms TSE Server. Keep the Log On Workstations as "All Computers", and disable the direct RDP from Propalms TSE Settings,

"Ready America" is the U.S. government's website containing valuable information about how to protect yourself and your family in the event of an emergency.
A few weeks ago, I received an e-mail containing some of the illustrations used in the government's literature, along with some alternate interpretations of what those graphics might mean. I assure you that these drawings are actually used in the instructional materials you can download here. They are apparently derived from the old post-World War II "duck and cover" campaigns.
As the e-mail I received said, however, "[t]he fun thing is that these pictures are so ambiguous they could mean anything! Here are a few guesses about what they mean:"
1. A one-inch thick piece of plywood should be sufficient protection against radiation. Always carry one!
2. Do not drive a station wagon if a power pole is protruding from the hood.
3. If you hear the Backstreet Boys, Michael Bolton or Yanni on the radio, it is a psychological terror attack. Cower in the corner or run away as fast as you can.
4. After exposure to radiation, it is important to consider that you may have mutated to gigantic dimensions so watch your head.
5. If you are sprayed with an unknown substance, stand and contemplate that instead of seeing a doctor.
6. If a door is closed, karate chop it open.
7. Be on the lookout for terrorists with pinkeye and leprosy. Also, they tend to rub their hands together manically.
8. Hurricanes, animal corpses and the biohazard symbol have a lot in common. Think about it.
9. If you spot a terrorist arrow, pin it against the wall with your shoulder.
10. If you spot terrorist activities, blow your anti-terrorism whistle. If you are bald, yell really loudly.
11. Michael Jackson is a terrorist. If you spot this smooth criminal with the dead, dead eyes, run away.
12. The proper way to eliminate smallpox is to wash with soap, water and at least one armless hand.
13. If your lungs and stomach start talking, stand with your arms akimbo until they stop.

Competition for FDI is more intense than ever before. More and more countries, especially in emerging markets, are showing they are 'open for business'.
This is unsurprising. FDI is a major catalyst for development, job creation, and economic growth.
How does your country rank in the World Bank's Ease of Doing Business Report? Is your position improving or decreasing?
Do you sell your country's investment case energetically to international media?
Is it obvious why you are a good investment destination compared to geographic peers?
Do you use case studies to illustrate FDI success stories?
Thoburns is expert at crafting FDI campaigns in regions as diverse as the Middle East to Central America.

Astros gain in West; Keuchel 15-0 at home
HOUSTON -- All-Star left-hander Dallas Keuchel completed his record-breaking perfect season at home and the Astros cut another game off the Rangers' division lead with a 4-2 victory on Sunday afternoon at Minute Maid Park. The Rangers now lead the Astros by 2 1/2 games in the American League West.

HOUSTON -- All-Star left-hander Dallas Keuchel completed his record-breaking perfect season at home and the Astros cut another game off the Rangers' division lead with a 4-2 victory on Sunday afternoon at Minute Maid Park. The Rangers now lead the Astros by 2 1/2 games in the American League West.
Houston remains 4 1/2 games behind the Yankees for the top AL Wild Card spot, with a half-game lead over the Angels for the second Wild Card berth.View Full Game Coverage
Watch the race to the postseason this week on MLB.TV
Keuchel allowed one run over seven innings to finish 15-0 in 18 starts at Minute Maid Park this year. He is the first pitcher in Major League history to go undefeated with at least 14 wins at home in one season. The Astros finished the regular season with a 53-28 record at home, tying for the club's best record at Minute Maid Park.
• Justice: Astros relish pennant-race pressure
Keuchel rebounded from a disastrous start in Arlington 11 days ago, when he surrendered a season-high 11 hits and a career-high nine earned runs in just 4 2/3 innings of a loss.
"It was nice to kind of settle down after the first," Keuchel said. "I thought [home-plate umpire Vic Carapazza] opened the zone up a little bit for both pitchers, but at the same time it was a little more comfortable for me just because I think I was trying to do too much in Arlington and that's not me. I knew what I had to do today and that was attack the zone. I think I did a good job of that and that was the key."
Video: TEX@HOU: Hinch talks Keuchel's season, Gomez's impact
Martin Perez pitched well for the Rangers, allowing two unearned runs in six innings, but he still took the loss. He left trailing 2-1, and reliever Ross Ohlendorf gave up a home run to Chris Carter to lead off the seventh. A passed ball gave the Astros an extra run in the eighth, and they ended up taking two of three from the Rangers in the series.
Video: TEX@HOU: Carter launches a 398-foot homer to left
"We just faced some good pitchers," outfielder Shin-Soo Choo said. "Keuchel is not easy to hit, just look at his numbers. Keuchel did a nice job today."
Cy Keuchel? Keuchel had a sterling Cy Young Award resume entering Sunday's series finale, but his masterful seven-inning performance may have cemented his status as the front-runner in the AL. Keuchel allowed four baserunners -- two of which came in the first inning -- struck out 10 and retired 17 of the final 18 batters he faced. Keuchel hasn't lost a home start since Aug. 10, 2014, and his 213 strikeouts also set a single-season franchise record for left-handed pitchers. More >
• Is Keuchel #AwardWorthy? Vote now for Best Major Leaguer
"I'd enjoy if he'd do it again next year," Astros manager A.J. Hinch quipped. "I'd like him to have another home start this year, too, which we're going to have to earn. It's hard to fathom that kind of dominance against a really good league. This is the highest league there is and this is a ballpark that doesn't always reward good pitches. It's a tough park. And he's never backed down from the challenge, he's never begged off of anything in his life. I think his year, specifically at home, is as special as they come."
Video: TEX@HOU: Keuchel notches 204th K for franchise record
Andrus error opens door: Perez, holding a 1-0 lead, retired the first two batters in the second inning and then got Marwin Gonzalez to hit a slow grounder to shortstop. Elvis Andrus had sufficient time, but his throw pulled first baseman Mitch Moreland off the bag. That was followed by a single by Carter, a walk to Jason Castro and a two-run double by Jake Marisnick. More >
"The tough part of that is trying to pick each other up," manager Jeff Banister said. "A guy makes a mistake behind you, you have to pitch to pick him up. It's tough."
Video: TEX@HOU: Gonzalez reaches on error by Andrus
Carlos a go-go: After being sidelined for 13 straight games with a mild intercostal strain, Carlos Gomez finally found his way back on the field. Pinch-running for Evan Gattis after his eighth-inning single, Gomez stole second on the first pitch to Colby Rasmus, advanced to third when Rasmus grounded out to first and sped home on a passed ball by catcher Bobby Wilson to give the Astros a two-run lead. Banister challenged the call, but it was confirmed after review. More >
• Cut4: Gattis falls, causes tremors until end of time
"It's a simple injury, but tough at the same time," Gomez said. "I've been working, come here and do my training early to help to heal it."
Video: TEX@HOU: Gomez called safe at home, call confirmed
Hamilton can't deliver: Hinch gave the Rangers a chance to get Josh Hamilton in the game as a pinch-hitter after Rougned Odor led off the eighth with a triple off left-hander Oliver Perez. Hinch, holding a 3-1 lead, brought in right-hander Will Harris to face Chris Gimenez, and Hamilton went up as a pinch-hitter. Harris struck him out. Delino DeShields got the run home with a grounder to short before Choo grounded out to end the inning.
Video: TEX@HOU: DeShields' groundout to short plates Odor
"No, because I never thought I'd be in this position." -- Keuchel, on if he's thought about the Cy Young Award
The Rangers were 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position. This season they are hitting .293 with runners in scoring position in their 84 wins and .180 in their 71 losses.
Rangers: Right-hander Colby Lewis (17-8, 4.36 ERA) gets the call against the Tigers at 7:05 p.m. CT on Monday in Arlington. Lewis has won three straight starts with a 1.71 ERA. The Rangers have won 23 of their last 30 games at home.
Astros: Rookie Lance McCullers (5-7, 3.22 ERA) opens the Astros' crucial six-game road trip Monday in Seattle at 9:10 p.m. CT. McCullers has allowed three or fewer earned runs in each of his four September outings, but he doesn't have a win to show for it considering the Astros haven't scored more than three runs in any of those games.

The FREME action relates to the Horizon 2020 Work Programme 2014-2015: Industrial Leadership, Leadership in Enabling and Industrial Technologies, Information and Communication Technologies, Content Technologies and Information Management. The overall challenge in the realm of content technologies and information management that the FREME action addresses is to strengthen the position of the European Union as provider of innovative multilingual products and services based on digital content and data, addressing well-identified industry and consumer market needs.
The following items summarise the FREME specific objectives that are consistent with the above menthioned Work Programme objectives:
- Innovation in content and data value chains, to establish innovative framework with 6 multilingual and semantic enrichment services for digital content to make it dynamic (accessible, interoperable, and reusable), discoverable (visible on the Web), and aggregatable (friendly to indexing and search engines). To ensure the framework is generic (not tailored to specific sector, country, and / or language), flexible (the framework can be extended with new services), and reconfigurable (enrichment services can be integrated independently) to serve a wide range of other customer needs beyond the FREME action.
- Integration and transfer of technologies, to transfer the following existing semantic and multilingual technologies to the market of digital content management by their integration into the FREME framework: Internationalisation Tag Set 2.0 (ITS 2.0) and its open technologies; Natural Language Processing Interchange Format and its relevant technologies; entity identification and recognition technologies; cloud terminology services and web-based service for terminology annotation in the ITS 2.0-enriched content; cloud machine translation for building custom machine translation systems; cloud authoring environment for creating eBooks, technical documentation, and marketing materials.
- Validation within real world, to integrate and validate 6 enrichment services for digital content within 4 business cases: content creation (or authoring) and publishing, content translation/localisation, cross-language content sharing and access, and personalised Web content recommendations. To ensure cross-sector, cross-border, and cross-language approach in terms of partner countries, domains, and languages. To involve 200 Beta users to validate the FREME services beyond the consortium.
- Innovation in business models and growth of businesses, to contribute to innovation of business models for digital content and Big Data markets by the example of 4 business models and business plans for 4 FREME business cases and in view of FREME technologies journey "from the lab to the market" and relevant market validations. To develop 4 business plans with contextualisation of 4 FREME business cases in the content and data value chain and formalisation of a viable business model. Thus, also to contribute to improving the ability of the European Union companies (SMEs in particular) in growing existing and establishing new businesses by enabling them with powerful framework to manage their digital content when extending businesses across the European Union and beyond it.
- Extension of job profiles and facilitating acquisition of new skills, to contribute to extending profiles of existing jobs and creating the foundation for new job profiles in the digital content management realm (including across the defined steps of content and data value chains) by active dissemination and impact maximisation activities and by organising at least 3 tutorials at major relevant events. To ensure sustainability of the FREME framework and user support facilitating acquisition of new skills in the way that FREME will be a living artefact deeply entrenched into the assets of the consortium partners and thus will be sustainably maintained well beyond the lifetime of the FREME EU action.

Don't Delay, Go to Bray, Today!
The drive to Bray from Dublin was quick, especially compared to the coach ride from Cork we had just done.
We checked in and went to see our rooms. This was the nicest place we booked in Ireland and we planned to just relax here.
|Sitting area in the lobby
The next day we slept in until noon, then got ready.
We went for a walk back to the water front to see what it looked like in the daylight.
|Outside our hotel
We warmed up, then made our way to the hotels swimming pool, sauna, steam room and hot tub. (The real reason we choose this hotel.) We wanted a relaxing couple days to go along with our busy holiday.
After we were nice and relaxed from the hot tub we got changed for dinner. We checked out the Chinese and Thai restaurant "Kainai" which was down the street from our hotel.
|Stir fry.
|Had some beers.
|The Bar's wall.
The next morning we checked out of the hotel at noon and took the city bus back to Dublin.

Late Yankees owner Steinbrenner not voted into Hall of FamePosted: Updated:
Late Yankees owner George Steinbrenner was not inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame this year.
Pat Gillick, a former general manager whose teams won three World Series titles, was elected to Hall of Fame.
The former Yankees owner, who died this year at the age of 80, led the Yankees to seven world championships and 11 pennants. He bought the team in 1973 and made it one of the world's biggest sports franchises.
Steinbrenner fell shy of the 12 votes needed from a 16-member committee.

AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHS by WALKER EVANS
In 1938, the Museum of Modern Art mounted its first solo photography exhibition, a display of 100 pictures by Walker Evans (1903-75) bearing the flatly declarative title "American Photographs." In the show were images of sharecropper families in the South for which Evans is still best known. Among them was "Alabama Cotton Tenant Farmer Wife" (1936), the close-up portrait of a thin-lipped young woman against a background of weathered clapboards, a magnetic, 20th-century Madonna. People from other walks of life were represented as well: the young couple in a sleek convertible car looking quizzically back at the camera; the tall, urbane black man sporting a white suit and straw boater.

It doesn't matter if you are 15 or 55, at one point or another everyone feels that they are misunderstood, or don't share anything in common with the immediate people around that. Social Media changed the ball game.

I remember reading Taming of the Shrew in grade school and thinking 'this is English?' Nope. I was wrong. It's Elizabethan. It's what our language has evolved from.
Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and more have been playing active roles in the evolution of language. With the development of online tools, we've been able to enhance communications between countries, cultures and languages. While students may not have a grip on how we've talked and written in the past, they have developed their own language that fits with the tools that they are surrounded with. Isn't that more resourcefulness than anything?

When people suggest that you observe conversations happening online, how can you do that?
To see your company, brand or potential employees interact with customers and viewers online is imperative for future development, growth and expansion. But how is this done?

I recently had the pleasure of working with a small non-profit in Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN. We sat down and had coffee and discussed what I do and how I could possibly help them. We touched on communications and dabbled in current communications methods. Suddenly, someone had pulled out a document that had been created by a recent volunteer***.
*** Disclaimer: Now, I'm all for volunteer activity. However, they are not always the best resources for creating a business or non-profit communication plan when they are currently freshmen in college seeking a degree in speech.

When it comes to blog promotion, it's not a 'if you build it they will come' mentality. You need to be proactive in promoting your blog, its community and content.
Missed the boat
If you are using social networks, take a minute to evaluate your blog's presence on each of them. Is it linked as a permanent staple on the site, or is it posted every so often? If you only post the new updates, those new posts can get lost downstream. Think of a Facebook news feed or a Twitter feed like a stream. When you throw a toy sailboat into the water, it's not going to hang out right in front of you, it will move with the current. If people come by later, unless they are looking for it downstream, they have obviously missed the proverbial boat. Take a peek and evaluate where you are posting your blog.

The east coast of the US is thriving this summer season with literary news celebrating new publications by Latin American poets in Cambridge, a reading series at the Bryant Park Reading Room, and many more notable events featuring acclaimed authors. Over in the United Kingdom, writers are also lighting up stages and claiming accolades. Our editors are taking you into this literary landscape.
Scott Weintraub, Editor-at-Large, reporting from the USA
On Friday, May 24, the famed Grolier Poetry Book Shop in Cambridge, MA hosted a book launch for two spectacular volumes of Latin American poetry in translation, both of which were recently published by Ugly Duckling Presse: Materia Prima, by Amanda Berenguer (eds. Kristin Dykstra and Kent Johnson; reviewed in Asymptote in April 2019) and The Winter Garden Photograph, by Reina María Rodríguez (trans. Kristin Dykstra, with Nancy Gates Madsen). Grolier is truly hallowed ground; located on Plympton Street, around the corner from Harvard Square, this specialty bookstore has been in business since 1927 and boasts a collection of over fifteen thousand poetry titles. The launch of these two books took place off-site during the world's largest conference of Latin American Studies, the Latin American Studies Association's annual meeting, which featured over five thousand participants.

Nagel & Kimche, 2015, 272 pp.
Sixty years ago, a young Swiss woman took the travel writing scene by storm. Describing her travels from Zurich, via Vienna and Trieste to Bombay, Tibet, Japan, Bangkok, China and New York, before finally returning home to Switzerland, her account was not the journey of an intrepid adventurer to the worlds most inhospitable places. But Katharina Von Arx (1928-2013) travelled with little more than her ukulele and a set of drawing materials to finance her way around the world. The hitchhiking Swiss miss, as the Los Angeles Times neatly described her, travelled in the spirit of her compatriots Ella Maillart and Annemarie Schwarzenbach to capture the aesthetics of the foreign as the world began opening up to foreign tourism in the 1950s. Unselfconscious and unconventional, von Arxs first book Nehmt mich bitte mit: Eine Weltreise per Anhalter (Please Take Me with You: A Hitchhike Around the World) describes her travels through India aged just twenty-five. Von Arx learns Bengali (while teaching doubtless bemused locals some Swiss German), lives briefly on a houseboat in Kashmir, visits an opium den in Calcutta and sings Swiss cradle songs for Indian radio, before moving on to Japan, with its stiflingly neat gardens, and finally to the exuberantly generous people of New York. On the way she negotiates a series of awkward and, by modern standards, downright dangerous encounters, often with foreign men, that highlight her mulish determination to succeed, coupled with a thirst for adventure.
While Nehmt mich bitte mit is characterised by irony and humour in equal measure, it also offers a serious contribution to the history of womens travel writing. It is, essentially, a feminist experiment in overcoming the dictates and mores of middle-class society in the post-war years. It demonstrates how, with extremely limited means but plenty of savvy, a woman could travel unchaperoned and explore with relative freedom hitherto still largely foreign peoples, places and customs, through the decidedly non-touristic perspective of the everyday, the domestic, even the humdrum. Von Arxs account includes a fair portion of self-reflection on herself as a travelling woman, a strange creature in trousers ein merkwürdiges Geschöpf in Hosen. But it is just as revealing about her self-portrayal as a young Swiss woman journeying through a post-war world in which old hierarchies have been destabilised and new identities are being formed. Her account of the house where she stayed in Uttar Pradesh that belonged to the Nawab of Rampur emphasises how heavily Indian society was still influenced by British forms of politeness, and how much its buildings owed to European interior design and architecture. Set against this is the image of the Nawabs daughter, schooled at an American convent in Darjeeling, for whom invisibility in her fathers household and arranged marriage are the accepted norm. Women travelling veiled in purdah to avoid the male gaze represent the polar opposite to von Arxs largely untrammeled voyaging spirit to which seeing and being seen are central.
Nehmt mich bitte mit not only marks an important moment in the history of travel writing, it also reveals a pivotal point in the consumption of travel literature by a European audience. The tourist destinations that von Arx describes with such enthusiasm would barely cause a modern audience to raise an eyebrow. In an age when TripAdvisor can inform us at the click of a button about accommodation, sights, food or medical care in the furthest corners of the earth, it is precisely von Arxs energetic description of what must have seemed then so foreign, so striking and so exotic, that brings Nehmt mich bitte mit to life. This makes this book such an important snapshot of the practices of foreign travel and the possibilities it offered, before these became subsumed into the impersonal leisure and tourist industries of today.
The re-edition of this book by Nagel & Kimche for the Hanser press is timely. Accompanied by von Arxs original quirky illustrations and a perceptive epilogue by literary critic Martin Zingg, which investigates her narrative strategies, it offers a lively and vibrant picture of a new phase in the practice of travel.
The charm of the whole book derives from its juxtaposition of tranquil chutzpah with carefree naivety; what sustains the charm is the books unawareness of its tendency to the comic. Die Zeit
[ ] it shows just how strange the world was back then to European readers and how it has been narrated to exhaustion point today. Süddeutsche Zeitung
Dr Alison E. Martin wrote her doctoral thesis at University of Cambridge on travel writing and Anglo-German cultural relations in the 18th and 19th century. She is currently a lecturer at the University of Reading and has published extensively on travel writing, translation and gender.
Katharina von Arx (1928-2013) was born in the Swiss canton of Solothurn. She initially enjoyed a privileged childhood as the daughter of a successful felt manufacturer, but the global economic crisis of 1929 subsequently forced the family to live in much more straitened circumstances. In 1947 she completed qualifications at the commercial college in Zurich, then studied drawing from 1952 to 1953 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, where she was mentored by Friedrich Hundertwasser. She left the academy to embark on her voyage round the world, documented in Nehmt mich bitte mit. While working as a travel writer, she was posted to the Tonga Islands in the Pacific, where she met her future husband, the journalist and photographer Freddy Drilhon. She continued to write and illustrate books and periodicals, working from a medieval priory house in the Swiss village of Romainmôtier, which Katharina and her husband restored.

Change. We talk a lot about it but how often does it truly happen in the way we want it to? There are all sorts of studies, speeches and books dedicated to the concept and yet, it sometimes seems nebulous.
One of the really interesting questions that I often hear - and ask myself - is whether people can ever truly change.
Can someone who has committed a grievous crime be truly rehabilitated? Can someone who has traditionally been socially conservative become extremely liberal, and/or vice versa? Can someone who hates sport turn into an ironwoman/man?
As I was pondering this very question on my last flight, I came across this podcast... Invisibilia's study on personalities.
I highly recommend you listen to it, and then have a think about what I drew as the conclusion. It's all in our mind...
...and I think this book is now on my reading list.

Alcohol Linked to Cancer – An interesting article on Yahoo Shine titled "Even Moderate Drinking Linked to Increased Cancer Risk" reports research that indicates drinking even a single alcoholic beverage per day can increase your risk of various types of cancer. The research was reported in the American Journal of Public Health titled "Alcohol-Attributable Cancer Deaths and Years of Potential Life Lost in the United States"
The article concludes with a quote summarizing nicely the study's conclusions – "In general, drinking less is better than drinking more, and for people who drink excessively it's something to think about," Naimi said. "Alcohol is a big preventable cancer risk factor that has been hiding in plain sight."

How to Impress that Important Client
When you have customers who like spending a lot of money with your company, you want to do your best to impress them and keep them interested in your business. This is because they are providing your business with a good sum of money. You want to ensure that your relationship with them never gets sour but only flourishes.
You have by all means created the right impression with your client when they met you for the first time and started using your products and services. But when they come for a second visit, there is a need to keep them, impressed with your brand. Below are some ideas that you can use to impress them.
Clean your Office Well
You would not want to invite your client to visit you when your office is disarranged. It is for this reason that you need to have your office professionally cleaned before your important customer visits you. You should also ask your employees to tidy up their workstations and get rid of any mess scattered on their desks such as loose paperwork. You can incorporate new office setup ideas like installing framed pictures or a new plant.
Have a Plan of Action
It also important to have a timetable of activities that you would wish to do with your customer during the day. For example, you can schedule a morning meeting with them, breaking up for lunch before you can give them a tour of your production facilities or a demonstration of your new products and services. You can, later on, plan to have dinner with them to strengthen your social bonds.
Have them Picked and Dropped off at their Hotel
If you have clients from a far off country, it is kindness to arrange for them to be picked up and dropped at their hotel. You can have an executive chauffeur driving them around and impress them even more. It is not as expensive as it is when you hire a limousine or executive transport as it is when you hire the same from a local taxi line. It gives your client a sense of status and importance and also it shows them that you are not afraid of giving them a good treat and that you value their business.
Be Punctual
It is a bugbear for any customer to have to sit around and wait for the supplier or partner organization officials to meet them. Punctuality is important both to the new clients and existing ones too.
Be prepared in Advance
Prepare in advance before you can have them visit you. Have all the important items that you will need for the meeting at your disposal.

Retail in India -Revolution or Evolution
Retailing in India came with evolutionary patterns from Kirana store to Super market. This sector was un-organized in the initial stage, and after that it carried forward by the textiles industries through the dealer model. Now it is growing as supermarket and hypermarket. The main drivers of the retail evolution in India are buying behavior of the customer, increase in disposable income of middle class, infrastructure development and changing customer choice. The target segments of retailers are the younger middle class earners which belong to more than 20% of total population. The growth in retail sector also comes through innovative ideas. As retailers are providing the innovative buying options at different store like as cash & Carry, lowest price day (Sabse Sasta din) which help to increase the customer base. Initially organize retail was involve in the apparels and footwear. Now retail has included the food chains, book & CD store (landmark) and electronics (CROMA store a Tata retail chain). These all changes occurred at a passage of time so; it is an evolution rather than revolution. This paper help to give information about the journey of retail in India, different formats of retails chains, drivers of the retail industry, and finally the barrier in the growth of Indian retail.
Retail in India: Revolution or Evolution
Evolution of Retail in India:
The journey of retail started long back through the Kirana store in India. This is first effort by local shopkeeper. The shopping centre concept comes into the existence in year 1869, with Mumbai Crawford market and Kolkata's New Market in year1874. The underground shopping complex Palika Bazaar in New Delhi was established in the late 1970s and mini malls on the Banglore's Brigade Road come into existence in 1980s.
Government of India entered into the rural India by franchisees called Khadi Bhandar. These stores serve as outlets for products made by village industry i.e. Khadi, matchsticks, incense sticks, decorative items made from wood and earth, ahinsak (non-violent) honey, ahinsak leather items etc.
The industries came in the retailing in 1980s through dealer network. In 1980s, the big group of textile industry i.e. Raymond, S.Kumar, Bombay dyeing and Grasim came with this concept of retailing. In the manufacturing sector, the pioneers were DCM group & Bata. Titan came with an organized retail concept and establishes number of showroom for premium watches.
All the above effort for retailing came by the manufacturer. But the pure retailer approach came in the existence in 1999s with the establishment of "Ansal's Plaza" in Delhi and Crossroads in Mumbai. After the 2003, many other organizations either planning to come into the retail market through the retail store or initiated the establishment work. Currently some popular groups which are operating the organized retail in different formats are following.
Table-1: India's leading retailers and their format
RPG RetailHyper market(Spencer's),Specialty Store(Health & Glow) Piramal'sDiscount store(Trumart)

Tata/TrentHyper market(star Bazaar India)
Landmark GroupHyper market(TBA)

OthersDiscount store(Subhiksha, Margin free, Apna Bazaar),Super market(Nilgiri's), Specialty Electronics(Vivek's, Vijay sales)
From the above long journey shows that organized retailing in India came through a long path and many changes. It means it is an evolution rather than sudden, revolutionary change.

God's Forge
by Patrick Dorsey
Set in the aftermath of the Crusades, God's Forge is the adventure of the fierce Knights Templar as they battle to prevent the destruction of their order.
A legion of elite, monastic fighting men, the Knights Templar were the most fearsome warriors of the Crusades, writing their legend in the gory sands of the Middle East with the blood of their enemies and their own. It was they who took the Holy Land, and they who held it. Answering only to the Pope, they bowed before no king or crown.
Returned from the Crusades and stationed in Paris, Brother William has grown disillusioned with the Order and plans to leave it. But as their Paris stronghold is seized by royal troops, William leads a small band of Templars in a desperate escape, fleeing with them into the night.
Alternately fighting and running, struggling to understand the world that has turned on them so viciously, they cross paths with a brutalized young prostitute. Open and proud about her sins, she ushers William and his comrades toward dark truths about the city festering around them, about its rulers and the church they've sworn to defend—all in a race to escape that will leave the streets of Paris bloody and end the pursuit of these soldiers of God.
Haunted Webster Groves
Legends and Firsthand Accounts of Ghosts in Webster Groves, Missouri
By Patrick Dorsey
Webster Groves – a great place to live, work, and play… even for the departed… We've all been unsettled by chilling stories of hauntings and the unquiet dead, those spirits who refuse to rest and instead remain to take part in the lives of the living. We've read the tales, seen the movies, and occasionally we lean close to hear of someone's personal experience with a ghost. Especially when that someone lives next door. Discover eerie legends and uncanny firsthand accounts of the ghostly and supernatural in a neighborhood perhaps just like yours, where residents of a quiet bedroom community come home nightly to unseen footsteps; resign themselves to objects mysteriously moving, disappearing, and reappearing; live with lurking, spectral figures; and otherwise share their homes with the ghostly and supernatural. Webster Groves, Missouri is one of the early suburbs of St. Louis, a place with a history that extends back to Colonial times and reaches across the Civil War right through to today. Some who lived that history have evidently remained…

Euless boy wins geography bee
Benjamin Benjadol really likes to study maps and, thanks to this hobby, the Euless seventh-grader is headed to Washington, D.C.
Benjamin, 13, will represent Texas in May at the 26th annual National Geographic Bee. He is the first student from the Hurst-Euless-Bedford school district to reach national competition, district officials said.
"It's an honor," he said.
The National Geographic Bee is annual competition for students in grades four through eight. Questions cover the world.
State finals were Friday. In Texas, the event was hosted by HEB schools in Bedford. One hundred students competed at the district's Pat May Center. They came from cities including Arlington, Colleyville, Dallas, Austin, Houston and Corpus Christi.
Participants came from public, private and home schools, said Marci Deal, K-12 social studies coordinator for HEB schools. The top 100 are chosen based on test scores, Deal said.
Students compete for college scholarships. This year the national competition will be moderated by journalist Soledad O'Brien.
The competition, which began in 1989, includes students from the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories and Department of Defense schools.
Benjamin, a student at Central Junior High, became the state champion after correctly answering: "What is the name of the sea that is between the Taymyr Peninsula and the Novaya Zemyla Island?
The answer is the Kara Sea.
Gram Brinson of Houston and Joseph Afuso of Corpus Christi came in second and third place, respectively. The top three contestants took home trophies and cash prizes.
Deal said they are proud to have a home-grown winner at the event this year.
"It is very cool," Deal said. "We really pride ourselves on being an international school district. This just fits in perfectly."
Palap Benjadol, Benjamin's mother, took photos as her son posed with his trophy next to an inflatable atlas.
"I'm so excited," she said. "Overwhelming."
Benjamin has been trying to make it to nationals for several years. He started participating in the fourth grade.
"This is the first time I go to D.C., and it's really an honor to represent my school and my district in Washington," Benjamin said. "This is my fourth time in the state geography bee, and my third time in the top 10."
Benjamin recently competed in a regional spelling bee competition held at TCU. He was the runner-up.
"I have been juggling between the spelling bee and the geography bee for a long time," he said.
Benjamin said it's hard to compare the two competitions.
"Here, it was holistic," Benjamin said. "You have to study the whole world and understand it."
Getting to know the world seems natural for Benjamin whose family travels to his parents' native country of Thailand.
He also manages a virtual airline in which participants use "flight simulators" on their computers. The hobby also allows him explore some geography, but he said he prefers to brush up for competition with a traditional explorer's tool: "Studying with an atlas is always better."

Vascular dementia (VD) is a degenerative cerebrovascular disease that leads to a progressive decline in memory and cognitive functioning.
By Bob DeMarco
Alzheimer's Reading Room
Vascular dementia occurs when the blood supply carrying oxygen and nutrients to the brain is interrupted by a blocked or diseased vascular system. Vascular dementia generally affects people between the ages of 60 and 75.
Vascular dementia is considered the second most common type of dementia.
What is the Difference Between Alzheimer's and Dementia
Vascular dementia occurs when blood vessels in the brain narrow, reducing the amount of blood flowing to the brain. In some cases, a blood vessel may be completely blocked, causing a stroke and vascular dementia. However, not all strokes cause vascular dementia. The severity of the stroke and the location are the most important factors.
Vascular dementia often presents with symptoms similar to Alzheimer's disease. This usually happens after a series of very small strokes, or infarcts, that block small blood vessels. Often these small strokes are not noticeable. Eventually a cumulative effect takes place that results in vascular dementia.
There is no cure for vascular dementia.
The prevalence of vascular dementia ranges from 1 to 4 percent in people over the age of 65. There are no drugs currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat vascular dementia.
Persons with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, hardening of the arteries, diabetes, or other risk factors for heart disease are at high risk for vascular dementia. Monitoring of blood pressure, weight, blood sugar, and cholesterol are essential to avoid vascular dementia, or to lesson the chances of suffering from vascular dementia. Healthy eating, exercise, and taking medication as prescribed are important.
Vascular Dementia Symptoms
- Problems with memory or forgetfulness
- Confusion, agitation and sudden mood swings
- Difficulty concentrating, planning, and communicating
- Unsteady gait, poor balance, or shuffling feet
- Urinary urgency or Incontinence
- Night wandering or getting lost in familiar surroundings
- Depression
- A decline in the ability to organize thoughts
- Trouble communicating details
- Sudden weakness and difficulty speaking
Vascular dementia symptoms can begin suddenly and may worsen progressively, following a series of strokes or mini-strokes. However, some forms of vascular dementia develop gradually and the symptoms can be confused with Alzheimer's disease.

Vascular Dementia Causes
Vascular dementia can be caused in several different ways. Most commonly there is a blockage of the small blood vessels in the arteries of the brain. These blockages may be caused by plaque build up on the inside of the artery wall, or by blood clots that break loose and block a tributary in the brain.
Most people believe complete blockage of an artery in the brain causes a stroke (infarction), but some blockages don't produce stroke symptoms. These infarctions when "silent" increase a persons risk of vascular dementia.
Vascular dementia can be caused by narrowing of the blood vessels in the brain. In this scenario portions of the brain can be deprived of oxygen. This causes reduced blood flow to the brain from arteries narrowed by vascular disease.
Vascular dementia can also be caused by: high blood pressure or profoundly low blood pressure, high cholesterol, a family history of heart problems, disease in arteries elsewhere in the body, heart rhythm abnormalities, brain damage caused by hemorrhaging, or blood vessel damage from such disorders as lupus erythematosus or temporal arthritis.
Vascular Dementia Risk Factors
- Aging. This is one of the biggest risk factors for vascular dementia. The disorder is rare before the age of 65.
- History of stroke. The brain damage that occurs with strokes appears to increase the risk of developing dementia.
- Hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis). Atherosclerosis occurs when plaque builds up in your arteries and narrows your blood vessels. This can increase your risk of vascular dementia.
- High blood pressure. Hypertension puts extra pressure on blood vessels throughout the body. This increases the risk of vascular problems in the brain.
- High cholesterol. High levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) are associated with an increased risk of vascular dementia, and possibly with a higher risk of Alzheimer's disease.
- Diabetes. High glucose levels damage blood vessels throughout the body, increasing the risk of stroke and other vascular problems in the brain.
- Smoking. Smoking increases the risk of hardening of the arteries and other vascular diseases, including vascular dementia.
Preparing for an Appointment with your Doctor
You may first be seen at the hospital if you've had a stroke. Or, if your symptoms are mild, you may start by first seeing your personal care physician. If so, you should insist on a referral to a doctor who specializes in disorders of the nervous system (neurologist).
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions ahead of time will help you make the most of your time together.
Here are a list of question that you might ask:
Don't be hesitant or afraid to ask any and all questions that you have. You want to come to a clear understanding of any diagnosis and treatment protocol.
- What causes the symptoms
- Are there other possible causes for my symptoms?
- What kinds of tests do I need?
- Do these tests require any special preparation? Is this condition temporary or long-lasting?
- What treatments are available, which do you recommend and will they interact with my other medicine?
- What types of side effects can I expect from treatment?
- What's my prognosis?
- How quickly will I lose my memory?
- Will I need nursing home care?
- Are there any alternatives to the primary approach that you're suggesting?
- I have other health conditions. How can I best manage them together?
- Are there any brochures or other printed material that I can take home with me?
- What Web sites do you recommend?
- Is there any increased risk to my children?
You should prepare in advance to answer any questions your doctor might ask. These include:
- When did you start experiencing symptoms
- Did your symptoms begin abruptly or slowly?
- Have your symptoms been continuous or occasional?
- Do you have a history of high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, diabetes, heart disease or stroke?
- What were your first symptoms?
- Have other symptoms occurred since the first set of symptoms occurred?
Vascular Dementia Tests and Diagnosis
You can expect any or all of these test.
- Computerized tomography
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
- Positron emission tomography (PET).
- Doppler ultrasound.
- Neuropsychological tests.
Neuropsychological tests assess orientation, learning, recall, attention, calculation and language.
Exam results for people with vascular dementia typically show the same types of cognitive deficits as the exam results of people who have Alzheimer's disease.
One major difference, however, is in memory function. Most people with vascular dementia don't experience memory problems until later in the course of the disease unless there is a stroke in the exact area of the brain that controls memory.
Vascular Dementia Treatments and Drugs
There is no cure for vascular dementia and no drugs have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat it. However, medications designed to treat the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease also appear to help people with vascular dementia.
Ask your doctor about these drugs. Cholinesterase inhibitors — such as donepezil (Aricept), galantamine (Razadyne) and rivastigmine (Exelon) — are Alzheimer's drugs that work by boosting levels of a chemical messenger involved in memory and judgment. Side effects can include nausea, vomiting, muscle cramps, and diarrhea.
Memantine (Namenda) also has been shown to provide a modest benefit in people who have vascular dementia. Memantine works by regulating a chemical messenger involved in information processing, storage and retrieval. Side effects can include headache, constipation, confusion, and dizziness.
Additionally, if you treat the risk factors that may have contributed to vascular dementia, you may be able to slow the progression of dementia. This means controlling your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, diabetes, and quitting smoking.
Doctors may also prescribe medications to help you control these conditions, along with aspirin or an anti-platelet aggregator medication, such as ticlopidine (Ticlid) and clopidogrel (Plavix), to help keep your arteries clear. None of these measures, however, can restore lost cognitive function.

SEATTLE – West Seattle High School students walked out of class on Wednesday, protesting the election of Donald Trump.
"We feel unsafe with our futures," said student Dana Douthwait, about the morning protest, which involved close to 200 students.
They walked down to the Alaska Junction and back, cheered on by honking drivers and business owners who slapped an occasional high five. The chanted "Save our future" and "not my president" as they marched through the streets. They also held a banner which read "Fight it."
"We need to be angry. We need to be depressed, and then get on with it," said Jeannette Brown, who backed the students.
The Seattle School District says the students will not be disciplined, but will be required to make up the missed class work.
The District acknowledged in a statement, that they had received multiple calls from concerned families about the rhetoric of the election.
"We will not tolerate bullying, intimidation, or any other actions that sustain and advance prejudice and bigotry," a district spokesperson wrote in a statement. "Our commitment to the wellbeing of each and every student is stronger than ever."
The District also acknowledged that it was supporting teachers and principals on a case-by-case basis, given the questions that had come from parents.
Jesse Klein, who lives in West Seattle, was playing at a park with his two young daughters, and admitted he was near tears talking about the election's outcome.
"It's just a little bit shocking," he said.
Klein also described how he'll discuss the election around his kids.
"We just really show them love and kindness out of this," Klein said, "and the more upsetting, not what we've heard through this election cycle."
"Hopefully," he said. "Love trumps everything else."

Few IT shops need worry about late Vista
Gartner says Vista could slip even further. It's worth watching only if your Software Assurance agreement is running out or if you're on Windows 2000.
IT shops with up-to-date desktop operating systems will likely see no impact if Microsoft's next-generation operating system slips beyond its newly adjusted January 2007 shipping date.
Gartner Inc. said this week that it doesn't expect this broad availability to happen before the second quarter of 2007. "Microsoft isn't saying we're right at this point, but judging from history, how long it takes for them to get things out, and how complex the Vista code is, this is our assessment," said Michael Silver, an analyst at Gartner Inc. in Stamford, Conn.
Customers with Software Assurance agreements that end in December, January or February will probably be among the few directly affected by the delay, Silver said. If Software Assurance expires when Vista is supposed to ship, and a customer was not planning to renew, then Microsoft's delivery date for Vista matters very much because that customer will miss the free upgrade. "One month can make a big difference," he said.
Another group of customers who need to watch Vista ship dates are those running Windows 2000 on their desktops. There are plenty of enterprises that chose to skip Windows XP in favor of waiting for the next desktop release following XP.
Windows 2000 support runs to 2010, but some application vendors -- particularly the small companies -- may not want to support their products on anything less than Windows XP, Silver said.
In March, Microsoft said Vista would not be broadly available until early January, roughly two months later than expected and too late for the holiday season. Customers are expected to be able to download completed Vista code in November.
Also in March, Microsoft said it expected to have volume licensing for Vista available in December. "If that date slips then customers should hold Microsoft's feet to the fire," he said.
Since Microsoft's publicized the latest Vista delay, there have been rumblings from beta customers viewing Vista code who said they believed that based on what they were seeing, the ship dates could slip even further.
For the most part, experts don't expect to see mainstream rollouts of Vista until 2008 so corporate IT shops, particularly those running Windows XP, should not be too concerned if Vista slips a few more months.
"We've got our hands full now with some acquisitions we've made," said Steve Dougherty, an IT executive at Sunbeam Inc., a division of Jarden Corp. in Boca Raton, Fla., which runs Windows XP SP2 on its desktops. 'We're only interested in the fact that it's the next OS, but I don't think anyone is sitting on the edge of their seat."

Aquarium Activated Carbon
Ashwini Kulkarni Sule
May 10, 2019
Aquarium activated carbon is often used as a filter to control the level of waste in an aquarium. Let's see what this carbon is, the duration it can be used for, and the problems involved with its usage.
Activated carbon is obtained by burning carbonized base material like charcoal or coconut shell, anaerobically. The resulting substance is then subjected to steam, which increases its pore size. This results in the formation of active carbon which has a large surface area.
The surface area is so large that 1 tsp is enough to cover an entire football field. Activated carbon possesses the property of adsorption, due to which impurities cling to its surface.
Adsorption is different from absorption, in which the base material entirely absorbs the other material, while adsorption takes place on the surface of the base material. This property is of great use for the purpose of filtration. Using it in an aquarium is a great idea to eliminate organic waste materials from the aquarium.
Materials Adsorbed
Activated carbon is capable of adsorbing a range of materials including organic as well as chemical waste. The reason why an activated carbon filter is suitable for an aquarium is that it can eliminate large proportions of dissolved organic molecules from the water. It is also capable of removing medications, dyes, and other chemicals from the water.
Although this property can be of great use for removing excess of these materials, it may prove to be a hindrance during the treatment phase in the aquarium. At such times, it is best to remove the carbon filter from the aquarium. Chlorine, chloramine, and heavy metals are some other materials that can be successfully removed from the aquarium.
However, there are certain materials which cannot be removed by this carbon filter which include, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates. Substances like phosphate, and inorganic salts like sodium chloride, cannot be adsorbed by the carbon either.
Quantity and Duration of Usage
There are no specific recommendations regarding the quantity of activated carbon and the length of time for which it should be used. The reason is that there are many factors which influence these two parameters. Firstly, every aquarium is different with a difference in their biological load.
Secondly, the quality of the carbon often decides the time for the intended usage. Lastly, the life of the carbon filter also depends upon the adsorptive materials it has been subjected to. Some manufacturers may give vague guidelines regarding the duration for which activated carbon can be used.
Carbon pads and carbon sponges can be used for one to four weeks. High quality activated carbon in granular form can be used for several weeks. It is advised not to exceed the carbon filter usage over 3 months.
The use of this carbon filter for aquariums is highly controversial due to certain issues. The inability of carbon filters to use some vital pollutants from water is one of its disadvantages. On the other hand, the carbon filter may remove some essential elements from the water which can be detrimental to the aquatic life.
However, this is unlikely to happen in normal circumstances. If the carbon pad has not been changed for a long time, then chances are that the adsorbed materials might leach back into the water.
However, certain pH conditions are required to stimulate this. Some of these problems can be alleviated by regularly changing your carbon pads, thereby preventing coating or biofilming.
The decision regarding the usage of aquarium activated carbon is entirely yours. There are certainly some benefits of using it, however, if you regularly change the water of your aquarium, you can do without a carbon filter. You can always use a carbon filter for your aquarium whenever required, rather than using it all the time.

text: Interview with Planetary Divide! June 29, 2015Micah No Comment Facebook – Genre(s): Deathcore/Djent – Location: United States/ Hungary PSAB: Where does the band name "Planetary Divide" come from exactly? Marcell: For me it basically means that we live on the opposite sides of the planet, divided by oceans and other continents, but still going for the same goals, writing the same music, having the same passion for creating art. PSAB: You dropped your EP, Origin, back in November. How's the feedback been, and when can we expect new music? Marcell: Our fans seems to be really impressed with the EP, our songs ''Perfect Failure'' and ''Into Infinity'' are having the best reactions so far and I am proud of all those older tracks. But I have to confess that the songs from our upcoming record are miles ahead of anything we released on Origin. We will finally drop our first single ''Shepherd'' in the early days of July so keep an eye out for that. PSAB: Also, while on the topic of your music, how has your cover of "Hot Dog" by Limp Bizkit been received by your fans? Marcell: The reception was great. Our fans seemed to have that same nostalgic love for the nu-metal era bands like Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park like we do, so they were pleased to hear our heavier version of Hot Dog. We haven't really received any negative feedback for it. PSAB: If you had the choice to have a musician featured on one of your tracks. Which musician would that be and why? Bryson: Personally, I would have to go with Carlo, the vocalist of Breakdown of Sanity. His style is not only aggressive and heavy-hitting; he has an absolutely killer range that allows him to stand out from the vast array of vocalists out there. Marcell: We already have some incredible musicians as guest artists on our upcoming full-length album such as Ryan Knight from The Black Dahlia Murder and Eric Almeida from Auras. If I could choose more musician, I'd love to have Chino Moreno from Deftones on our track. PSAB: What are three bands that play the most influence on your music? Bryson: For me, it would have to be Reflections, Delusions of Grandeur, and Within the Ruins. I find the lyrical content and vocal style from these bands to be some of the more original and unique ones from our scene, and that's what I personally like to focus on whenever I am listening to music. Marcell: I usually take my inspiration from Classical and Jazz music when it comes to writing riffs and solos, but if I had to name three bands, it would be Born Of Osiris, Whitechapel and Chelsea Grin. Jason Richardson's guitar-work inspired me a lot to write new material for us. PSAB: Do you have any shout outs to the readers out there? Bryson: I want to give a shout out to anyone who has ever taken the time to listen to one of our songs. Just being able to reach someone with the music we produce is everything I could ever want from being involved in a band. This is why one of the songs off of our upcoming full length is based on this concept, and how Marcell and I are willing to sacrifice everything just to be able to share our voice with the world. I would also like to give a special thanks to my homie Christian Emmett for being my studio engineer during the recording of our EP and "Hot Dog" cover, couldn't have done it without him! To everyone taking the time to read this, thank you! We love you all, and are very excited to share some new music with you soon. Marcell: I'd like to say we are sorry that this album is taking forever to be released and we are really thankful for your patience and support. I'd also like to thank our producer Szabolcs Sebők (Alxin Records) who is making sure that this album sounds huge. InterviewDeathcore, djent, planetary divideShare : Tweet ‹ The Tune Down For What?
