RBI, finance ministry differ over rural bank branches
May 25, 2012
Sangita Mehta , ET Bureau
MUMBAI: The Reserve Bank of India, RBI , and the finance ministry seem to have differences on the way banks should go about ensuring financial inclusion. While both the regulator and the ministry are passionate about providing banking services at low cost to the disadvantaged, a difference of opinion between the two has confused bankers. Recently, the finance ministry told banks that every business correspondent outlet should be converted into an ultra-small branch. So far, business correspondents - agents appointed by banks to provide banking services to the financially excluded in rural India - reached out to individuals on their own and operated from home.

Bank hackers steal millions via malware: Report
February 16, 2015
New York Times
By: David E Sanger & Nicole Perlrothl In late 2013, an ATM in Kiev started dispensing cash at seemingly random times of day. No one had put in a card, or touched a button. Cameras showed that the piles of money had been swept up by customers who appeared lucky to be there at the right moment. But when a Russian cybersecurity firm, Kaspersky Lab, was called to Ukraine to investigate, it discovered that the errant machine was the least of the bank's problems. The bank's internal computers, used by employees who process daily transfers and conduct bookkeeping, had been penetrated by malware that allowed cybercriminals to record their every move.
RBI wants banks to expand reach in north-east
August 23, 2006
KOLKATA: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has asked commercial banks operating in the north-east to step up IT deployment to expand reach. RBI wants banks to blend IT with banking processes and address human resources management issues to boost credit flow across northeastern states. The suggestions have been made by a high-powered RBI panel set up for development of the northeast. The committee is headed by RBI deputy governor Usha Thorat. The panel feels the banking system in the northeast has an operational limitation that triggers a supply-side gap. Thus, it feels improving infrastructure, creating a favourable investment climate and focusing on sectors of strategic advantage is crucial to usher in a favourable credit culture.

Uco Bank readies to tap market, kicks off 'roadshows'
February 19, 2003
KOLKATA: Uco Bank is clearly readying itself for its first capital market foray. From all indications the extent of funds to be raised will be finalised not before May '03. But certainly the roadshows have begun. It is however, a roadshow with a difference. Apparently, it is the Diamond Jubilee celebrations. For the past few months now, the bank has been staging 'padayatras', popularised by politicians in India, to tell its story. "The padayatras would be continued till May this year," declared the bank's chairman and managing director V P Shetty while inaugurating a similar walk in Kolkata on Sunday.
Sectoral Impact: Financial sector and Capital Markets
February 29, 2008

It has advised commercial banks, including RRBs, to add at least 250 rural household accounts every year at each of their rural and semi-urban branches. The FM has also accepted the proposal to allow individuals such as retired bank officers, ex-servicemen etc to be appointed as business facilitator or business correspondent or credit counsellor.
Buried under debt? Credit counsellors can find you a way out
September 15, 2008
Preeti Kulkarni , ET Bureau
MUMBAI: OVER the past few years, factors like rapidly changing lifestyles and easy availability of credit have resulted in many individuals borrowing beyond their limits to fund their consumption needs. And, with interest rates continuing their skyward march, such borrowers' plight is likely to worsen in the coming days. If you are among those feeling the weight of debt, you shouldn't hesitate to seek professional help to tide over the crisis. At present, borrowers struggling with repayments can turn to financial planners who can chart out the path to freedom from debt for a fee or credit counsellors who do not seek any compensation for the services rendered.

SP4-7 (SP76II) Overview
(**The SP4-7 is sold under the name "SP76II" in select markets)
Kurzweil's SP4-7 is the modern successor to our best selling SP76, which famously combined world-class Kurzweil sound quality with previously unheard of affordability and portability. The updated SP4-7 makes available to more players than ever the same sound set featured in our hugely successful PC3 line
Good Things Come In Small Packages
Here at Kurzweil, we realize that many musicians have the need for a keyboard instrument that is both compact and lightweight. The SP4-7's enclosure is slender, elegant and easy to lift; once set up it leaves the smallest possible footprint, which means that you, not your keyboard, will be in the spotlight.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
21 Apr 2005 12:44 GMT
US President George Bush, who will meet Saudi Arabia's de facto leader Crown Prince Abd Allah on Monday, has said he is seeking a clear answer from the Saudi government about the size of its spare oil production capacity.
Al-Naimi reiterated on Thursday that the kingdom - which controls the bulk of the world's spare production capacity - aimed to maintain a cushion of 1.5 to 2 million barrels per day. "Saudi Arabia has increased its production to meet customers' demand to the tune of 9.5 million barrels per day, increased its production capacity to 11 million bpd and will increase capacity to 12.5 million bpd by early 2009," al-Naimi told an oil conference in Paris.
"If need be, Saudi Arabia is ready to continue its capacity expansion to 15 million bpd and sustain such capacity for over 50 years," he added.
Rising demand
Rising world oil demand, especially in Asia's emerging economies, has strained international supplies to the limit, leaving little spare production capacity, and pushing prices to record highs. Opec members, especially Saudi Arabia, have raised production to try and build a stock buffer for higher demand expected at the end of this year. "In the short-term, we intend to continue doing our best to stabilise the market by increasing our exports according to the needs of our customers," al-Naimi said. Industry sources have said that the kingdom will raise supplies to its term customers in Asia and the major international oil companies by 500,000 bpd next month, putting it near 10 million bpd for the first time since 1980. Weaker grip
Al-Naimi said the ability of the kingdom and other Opec producers to control price rises had been weakened by the growing influence of big-money funds on prices and refinery bottlenecks in consuming nations.
"Despite our best efforts, Saudi Arabia and OPEC have had little ability to curb the rapid rise in prices" Ali al-Naimi,Saudi Oil MinisterUS crude prices earlier this month hit record levels above $58 a barrel, and on Thursday were trading above $53. "Despite our best efforts, Saudi Arabia and Opec have had little ability to curb the rapid rise in prices," he said. "Oil ... is attracting vast sums of money from hedge funds and institutional investors seeking to maximise returns and diversify their portfolios," he said. Al-Naimi said that oil market fundamentals were sound, and that rising interest rates would draw investors out of energy markets and into other asset classes. "As soon as these interest rates move they will probably go into better financial instruments such as bonds," he said. Volatile prices
"Despite our best efforts, Saudi Arabia and OPEC have had little ability to curb the rapid rise in prices" Ali al-Naimi,Saudi Oil Minister
A lack of refining capacity in consuming nations, especially to meet tighter environmental fuel specifications, was also contributing to price volatlity, al-Naimi said. "Petroleum product markets are having a significant influence on crude prices at the global level, more so than at any time before," he said. "Robust demand growth in the last few years, and difficulty in building new refineries in some markets, have led to a rapid increase in refined product trade," al-Naimi said. Expansion plans
Al-Naimi spelt out Saudi Arabia's capacity expansion plans in unusual detail.
"Petroleum product markets are having a significant influence on crude prices at the global level, more so than at any time before" Ali al-Naimi,Saudi Oil MinisterIn 2004, he said, Saudi oil company Saudi Aramco brought on stream two crude oil increments in the Abu Safah and Qatif fields, with a combined capacity of 800,000 barrels per day. In mid-2006, another increment of 300,000 bpd of Arabian Light crude is scheduled to flow from the Harada field, al-Naimi said. In addition, he said the Khursaniya field development was planned for 2007 with a capacity of 500,000 bpd of Arabian Light. Plans were also in place for expansions in the Shayba and Central Arabian fields in 2008, which would provide another 300,000 bpd of lighter crude, and a huge increment of 1.2 million bpd of Arabian Light crude was scheduled to be commissioned in the Khurais field in 2009, al-Naimi said.

Hey, folks. I have an American Brown ale that has an acrid bitterness/metallic-like-flavor to it. I was thinking at first that I may have over carbonated the beer. However, even when I pour a sample and shake the carbonation out it still has that flavor. I also thought it might be that my mash pH had been lower than expected (I didn't measure it this time.) and therefore maybe my beer's pH was too low. Well, I removed the carbonation form some and took a pH reading. It ended up being right in the middle of the recommended finishing range, at 4.25. I've also read that metals in the brewing process could cause the off flavor, but the only metals that would have come in to contact with the beer (short of some brass in the faucet, but I've taken a sample directly from the keg, with the same taste) would have been stainless steel. My water report (which admittedly was from probably a year ago...the water is from a well) didn't detect any iron. The bucket I used for this brew was brand new. I used a brand new auto-siphon with silicon tubing for the transfer to the keg. Anyways, does anyone have any ideas?
I had the same sort of off-flavor a while back when I used dark grains in a beer but not a stout. I had made an ESB that was brown, and there was a slight hint of metallic flavor in the finish. I never did really nail it down, but about two months later I got a water report. I really think that it was the combination of my water chemistry and the dark grains.
I don't know if this could be your issue, but it's a thought. What is your water chemistry like?
The treated water should have looked something like this, roughly: Ca 60's Mg 9 Sulfate 21 Cl 68 Sodium 5 Alk 51 Bicarb 60ish.
The wort tasted great when I took my OG, too. It seems like it could be something on the cold side. I've not read of any infections causing this kind of off flavor, but I'd imagine it's a possibility. I did have a problem with a frozen hose on this batch, so it probably took me ~30 minutes to chill instead of < 10 minutes. I ended up pitching colder than I'd planned...around 60. I suppose the chocolate malt was kind of old (a year or so), but dark malts like that aren't supposed to go bad, for the most part.
Not sure this will help you, but I found this list to be helpful in understanding faults in beer. http://www.bjcp.org/faults.php
I suppose it could be some kind of yeast originating phenol. It's hard to describe the exact off-flavor, since there was a fair amount of amarillo in the beer that might be combining with the phenol. Admittedly I didn't use pure oxygen until about 12 hours, but it wasn't at high krauesen yet, so this shouldn't be a problem from what I've heard/read, but I had dropped the wort, in effect, by placing my boil kettle about 3 feet off of the ground and draining the wort in to my fermenter that was sitting on the floor. I suppose another knock of the yeast might be that I believe it was from the same batch of poorly performing US-05 that was the cause of a thread around here a while back. Also, the yeast had stalled, presumably because of overnight temp swings (I had a temp controller on it, but the heating pad I was using for heat sometimes only really heats up on one side or another.). So, I had gently rocked the carboy to resuspend some of the yeast, and I warmed the bucket up to about 68 initially. I eventually ramped it up to about 72 since the beer stopped about 3 points above where I'd expected it to stop.
UPDATE: My latest guess, based on the current, flavor is that perhaps the flavor is autolysis. Now that the CO2 saturation has settled a bit more the beer seems to have more of a burnt rubber off flavor. I suppose that could come from having the heating pad taped to the side of the bucket. Fortunately for my most recent beer I had it in a chest freezer with a heat lamp (a couple feet away from the bucket) providing a more diffuse heat. When I took a gravity sample of that beer it didn't seem to have the off flavor. It tasted quite clean actually, though I shouldn't have used the carafa special I instead of the chocolate malt (It's a brown porter that I may add coffee or vanilla to.).

"A story of arrogance and obsession"
I couldn't finish this audiobook. I found nothing interesting in the author's endless escapades of techno crime. He strives to make the reader aware of how clever he is but though he can break into phone networks in order to get free and anonymous phone access, he appears not to be smart enough to keep from getting caught multiple times.He attempts to portray himself as a harmless mischief maker and is constantly aggrieved at being punished for it. It's difficult to admire or sympathize with someone who thinks it's fine to create problems for others, solely for the sake of amusing himself and the story was overburdened with boring details .
"Unbelievably boring"
Teenage girls
His voice is so monotonous that it was difficult to stay awake while listening.
Definitely disappointed.
I admit that I gave up a third of the way through because the bulk of the story seems to be a formulaic forbidden romance type of story and the narrator's reading was even flatter than the plot.
"Definitely not fine literature"
I would recommend it to some of my friends who read for information rather than well crafted writing.
I think an abridged version might be better because this version had a lot of superflous detail.
I didn't care for the narrator's accent or the voice.
I don't usually read non-fiction so this book was outside of my usual genre and would help to explain why I didn't enjoy reading it.
"Tried to like this book but story is very slow"
The prose is wonderful and the narration is faultless but the story is just too slow to keep me interested in returning to it.
"A snoozer of a book"
There is very little action and a lot of dialogue. It's difficult to keep the long list of characters straight and I have never been able to stay interested long enough to finish it.

Awful, Awful, Awful Hotel!!!
We JUST stayed at the Hyatt IAH this past Wed. This hotel left alot to be desired for a HYATT. As soon as I entered my room I knew my stay would not be good. The carpet was peeling away from the walls, the room was dusty, the bedding was dirty and stained, the bathroom was nasty...hair and PILLS all over the floor (real nice since I also had my 2 year old with me!), mold on the celings, and some kind of dead insect on the floor!! I had requested a crib. They rolled in this tiny thing and when I lifted the mattress to inspect it there were food particles under it!! Needless to say, my son did not sleep in it! The pool was filthy. I'm appalled that Hyatt has let this happen AND I'm appalled that this is labeled a 3 star hotel!! I would have been better off at a Sleep Inn for MUCH less!! I DON'T recommend this hotel!!
Not good
I too was disappointed in this hotel. Our wallpaper was peeling and carpet that had obviously seen better days. The bathroom wasn't very clean, the heat didn't work well, and we had a lovely view of a brick wall. The parking situation was also not so good. Fortunately, we were only there for one night. All things considered, really not much better than a Holiday Inn.
Very disappointed with Hyatt quality
The first room I was given was spacious except on the 6th floor, the room did not have Internet Access. The room on the 9th floor which they moved me to, did have Internet access, but did not give me the impression that it was cleaned. But what really got me was that there was no room service after 11 pm which was surprising for a hotel of this size. In addition, the Valet service was incredibly slow and disorganized, I had to wait 20 minutes for my car and was not even offered an apology.
Absolutely Wonderful
My family and I stayed at the Hyatt Regency hotel in downtown Houston and we absolutely loved it. The hotel was beautiful and the rooms very nice. I can't say enough about the beds--looked forward to them every night--so soft, great night of sleep guaranteed. The proximity to everything downtown is unbeatable, the price per night was relatively good. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.
I'll pass on this Hyatt
The lobby looks great when you arrive but I was extremely disappointed with the room.
The bathroom was a bit grimy and the room looked no different than that of a lower priced hotel. On arrival I had to ask for towels as none were provided in the bathroom. Furthermore, no one for the hotel has ever responded to my complaint regarding the state of the room.
Great Hotel
I stayed at the Hyatt Houston downtown on Valentine's day. The check-in personnel were fantastic. I arrived late that evening and they were still upbeat and energtic at midnight. The room was lovely with a great view. The bedding was nice too. I would suggest parking across the street to avoid the high Hyatt parking garage fee.
Great place to stay!!!
Just got back from houston last night from a wonderful weekend in Houston. The staff at the Hyatt was the best. Anything you needed they made it happen. The hotel is very nice. Has everything you would need. Great location, food, and very comfortable bedding.
A Good Choice in Houston
Of the three Hyatts I have patronized recently (Indianapolis, Washington, DC & Houston), I found this one to be the most attractive.
Security was a little better here than at the others: a room card was necessary to activate the elevator. And the elevators were near the front desk--unlike in Indy where the elevators were extremely close to the street, allowing anyone to easily access the room floors without being noticed by hotel personnel. The king bed was very comfortable even though a bit soft for my taste. The small lobby bar was convenient but had no draft beer at all and charged $5.25 for a bottle of Heineken.
The wait staff at the restaurant were friendly and attentive; the food acceptable and fairly priced. The location is downtown Houston is good and about three blocks from the Light Rail to the Museum District. I had not been to Houston for many years and was pleasantly surprised at how clean and attractive downtown seemed. Across the street is Luther's Bar BQ with good food at very reasonable prices. Recommended attraction: the National Buffalo Soldier Museum-a few blocks from the Museum District. If you are lucky, you may get a personal tour from Mr. Joseph, a true World War II hero.
Slept Like A Baby!
Stayed at the Hyatt in downtown on business November 13-15. Had a pleasant time during my visit. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and the room was comfortable. I enjoyed the central location to the various clients I was calling on and the stroll down the new Main street was brilliant. Lots of pubs and restaurants to enjoy. Finally, the bed in my room was fabulous! It's been a long time since I've slept that well. I would recommend this hotel and will stay on my next visit.
Reliable luxury city centre hotel
Stayed 27-30 Sept 2003. Luxury hotel in the familiar idiosyncratic Hyatt style. Well located in downtown business district but deadly quiet at weekend. Hotel scenic lifts are as exciting as when conceived 20 years ago. Spindletop revolving restaurant had good food and interesting views. Worth the money. Staff friendly throughout. Free of charge internet terminal by Guest Services desk. Access Mon-Fri to underground tunnels and shopping area. Outdoor swimming pool at 6th floor level. At USD 125 per night I would stay there again

Changes I made
Yesterday, I tried to fix my stay at a guest ranch in the Texas Hill Country. However, the ranch of my choice is closed for a week due to a family wedding. I have checked for alternatives, but I either do not like the ranch or it is way too expensive. Therefore, I will jump on a horse in New Mexico or Arizona. Naturewise I will like those states better anyways.
So, this forenoon I will hop in a bus to San Antonio. Jan 29th in the evening, I will fly to El Paso.
Dorm Experience
Oh my goodness! What a night! 8 girls in 1 room coming and going at any time of the night. Making loud noises, putting the light on, snorring crazy, clogging the toilet, jumping around in the upper bunk, very limited respect. Under these circumstances I had my difficulties catching sleep. Am I getting too old for a dorm?

The hotel is superb. It's small and perfectly designed. Luxurious but not gaudy. Also the small feel of the hotel makes it feel so private and is such a refreshing change from the big business hotels that feel cold and generic. Rooms are comfortable and the hotel is so clean and fresh it looks like it was built only weeks ago. Location is in Madeleine just near the metro. Great restuarants and cafes in the area and very centrally located in Paris. Another big plus is the hotel is quiet, we slep - Anonymous

More Low E2 confusion
Hi all. First time poster, long time lurker...
I am in the process of getting quotes for vinyl replacement windows for my new home and you can throw me in the 'confused as heck about Low E squared' crowd.
I received the first quote yesterday from a local SoCal installer that came recommended from our home inspector. This guy apparently sells his own brand of windows (American Integrity) and from what I can tell, is legit. But he is reluctant to send me technical information regarding what he is calling Low E2 spec'd windows. Instead, he directed me to Guardian's website and is telling me that the glass is the ClimaGuard 55/27 Low E. Of course there's no information that I can see on the Guardian site that reference U-Factor, SHGC, VT, etc.
When I spoke with him today, he mentioned that the LowE and LowE2 is the same thing, but that the LowE2 has a lower heat gain coefficient. Is he trying to dumb it down for me, or should I have reason to be concerned at his lack of providing tech specs? I have a bit of an uncertain feeling, as he is also quoting me for a higher STC rated window (at my request), but can't show me why its a better sound rated window.
In my research here I've read a lot of good things about Simonton, so I have some quotes lined up for installers who carry those windows as well. But I also wouldn't mind supporting a local business if his product is good.
BTW, his quotes came in at $410 for the 44"x43" sliding windows and $1,534 for the 69 1/4"x79" sliding doors for these supposed Low E2, SoundGuard (STC 32) products, tax and install included.
Climaguard 55/27 is Guardian's low SHGC offering. The numbers relate to the VT and SHGC - 55% visible transmittance and 27% Solar Heat Gain Coefficient.
It is a softcoat LowE2 product - which generically means that it has two layers of silver - with performance standards something of a mix between triple silver and double silver products.
For example, comparing to Cardinal's LoE2-240 low solar heat gain coating and also to Cardinal's LoE2-270 and Viracon's E1-55 which are dual silver moderate solar heat gain products:
Climaguard 55/27 - VT = 55, SHGC = 27, U (cog) = .29
Cardinal 240 - VT = 40, SHGC = 25, U (cog) = .30
Cardinal 270 - VT = 70, SHGC = 37, U (cog) = .30
Viracon E1-55 - VT = 49, SHGC = 36, U (cog) = .31
Technically, LowE and LowE2 are not the same thing, but the term LowE is often used generically to refer to any low emissivity product. A bit more precise would be to consider LowE as either a pyrolytic (hard) coat or single silver soft coat product - or typically high solar heat gain coatings - whereas LowE2 (versus LoE2, or correctly LoE squared, which is specific to Cardinal's coating terminology) refers to dual silver soft coats which can be either low or moderate solar heat gain (as noted earlier), and LowE3 refers to triple silver layer low solar gain coatings.
I would suspect his reluctance to discuss technical details may be more his lack of product knowledge than any attempt to "hide" anything from you - IMO.

Guide Gear Carbine Rifle Leather Scabbard is rated out of 5 by 45.Rated 5 out of 5 by jimmy from these are Great i bought two and need one more they fit perfect for my Winchesters, well made and I love them, I have been needing something like these for yearsDate published: 2015-02-20Rated 4 out of 5 by jeeper4460 from great price Great price for a leather scabbard and it is nice and thick BUT !!! The color and finish is kind of a dark cream color I have tried every thing to darken it even motor oil. I wanted to look more old time but the finish just will not darken. But still a good buy and I would get another one.Date published: 2015-02-09Rated 5 out of 5 by Camoman from scabbard for my Henry rifle I purchased this scabbard to use with Henry H001. When walking in the North woods I like to have my hands free and still have my rifle at the ready. There are no sling points on the Henry, but, using the scabbard makes it convenient to carry.Date published: 2015-02-03Rated 5 out of 5 by Grizzly Adams from Exactly what I was expecting!!! I can only speak of appearance and fit, but this scabbard is exactly what I was looking for. Fits my 18" barreled Winchester 94 great ( with maybe another two inches of barrel length possible) snug and secure. Seems like a good deal to me, I would definitely purchase another if needed.Date published: 2015-01-07Rated 4 out of 5 by Bobo62 from Leather Rifle Sheath I got this for my Henry Golden Boy, Looks and feels great. Will work great as a display, However if I was to use on a saddle or atv I'm not sure the strapping would be strong enough. Its all leather but the straps are only about an inch wide. Would work ok for minimal easy use. May not hold up to heavy daily use.I'm happy with it,, Price ,,Look,,Feel,,Shipping its all good.Date published: 2015-01-01Rated 4 out of 5 by Rick from Leather scabber review I have a Winchester lever action carbine and this is great for it. Nicely made and I like the stiff leather. Only thing in shipping the tip got bent and now it is not as stiff as the rest of the scabber.Date published: 2014-12-03Rated 5 out of 5 by MICHAEL from The scabbard is as well crafted as any I have had, even more expensive ones. May be a little tight as my 336 fixed sight scrapes on the leather but I feel it will losen upDate published: 2014-08-02Rated 5 out of 5 by THOMAS from I like it a lot. It fits my Winchester 94. The leather is nice.Date published: 2014-05-17

 do you know if this will fit my Henry Big Boy? 20" barrel, stock sites. Couple of mixed reviews.

A look at Arizona's top 10 high schools by SAT scores
The top high schools in Arizona have been identified -- at least according to their average SAT scores from 2013.
Nearly all of the top 10 public high schools are charter schools, the Phoenix Business Journal reports.
Every school on the list had at least 10 students take the test last year. Of course high SAT test scores are only one indicator of a quality education ... Some schools encourage their students to focus on the ACT test, and may not be included in this ranking. The Arizona Department of Education also conducts its own A-F Letter Grade Accountability System that tracks current-year achievement and academic growth.
The Business Journal listed the top 50 high schools in the state according to their SAT averages. Below is a look at the top 10 schools and their average scores. Keep in mind the maximum score awarded on a SAT is 2400.
#1: BASIS Scottsdale - 2075 average
#2: BASIS Tucson - 1939
#3: University High School, Tucson - 1916
#4: Gilbert Classical Academy - 1904
#5: BASIS Tucson North - 1900
#6: Scottsdale Preparatory Academy - 1858
#7: BASIS Oro Valley - 1809
#8: Veritas Preparatory Academy, Phoenix - 1795
#9: Northland Preparatory Academy, Flagstaff - 1785
#10: Tempe Preparatory Academy - 1784

Consultation on Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission Replacement Arrangements
The Government believes it should not impose unnecessary regulatory control over the civil sector; rather, it should work with and support the sector's ability to self- manage, allowing organisations to focus more on their work on in the community.
The repeal of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission (ACNC) is consistent with the Government's broader deregulation agenda to boost productivity by removing complex red and green tape imposed on business, community and individuals by at least $1 billion per year.
As part of the Government's election commitment to reduce unnecessary regulatory control over the civil sector, the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (Repeal) (No.1) Bill 2014 was introduced into the House of Representatives on 19 March 2014. The Regulatory Impact Statement that accompanied the first Bill stated that, 'views will be explored during the second stage of the process and implementation options will give consideration to the impacts on different groups'.
Earlier this year, the Minister for Social Services, the Hon Kevin Andrews MP, released the Australia's Charities and Not-for-profits Options Paper outlining the proposed regulatory replacement arrangements for charities following the abolition of the ACNC.
The Department conducted face-to-face consultations sessions following the release of the Options Paper. These were held across seven capital cities – Melbourne, Hobart, Canberra, Brisbane, Perth, Sydney and Adelaide. A total of 230 stakeholders attended the sessions, with some forums attended by over 40 participants.
Written submissions were also accepted by DSS on the proposed replacement arrangements. A total of 88 submissions were received.
Feedback from the face-to-face consultations and the written submissions has been consolidated into the Australia's Charities and Not-for-profits Consultation Report.

2nd City Chorus presents annual show March 23 at Memorial Hall
Online Staff Report
The 2nd City Chorus will present its annual show, "2nd City Chorus Unleashed," at 7 p.m., Saturday, March 23, in the historic Veterans Memorial Hall, 211 N. Main St., Rockford.
The award-winning men's acappella chorus will perform a variety of songs. This year, however, a significant segment of the concert will be dedicated to the group's love for "man's best friend." Several very recognizable tunes will have "parody dog lyrics" as written by Director Joe Tomecek, and the chorus will be in costume for this part of the show.
The chorus will have two quartets performing in this year's show. "Velvet Hammer" is its chapter quartet and is the reigning 2012 Barbershop Harmony Society Illinois District champion. Special guest quartet is "Dominant Prep." Bringing a new sound to barbershop, they are the 2012 Barbershop Harmony Society Central States District champions and fourth-place winners at the Society's International Collegiate Contest in Portland, Oreg., this past summer.
Because of this year's theme, 2nd City Chorus and the PAWS Humane Society have developed a collaborative partnership. The chorus recently performed at the PAWS's "Fur Ball" fund-raiser, and that organization will be the recipient of a percentage of the show's proceeds. Additionally, if attendees donate money or pet food to PAWS that night, they will be eligible for a special prize drawing.
To top off the evening, an "afterglow" will take place immediately after the concert in the same hall. This will consist of the chorus and chapter quartets performing a couple of numbers followed by a longer set by the guest quartet. Appetizers, desserts, coffee and a cash bar will be available.
Tickets are $15 for the show and $5 for the "glow." These tickets are separate and can be purchased in advance or at the door. Chorus members will be selling tickets, and for ticket information, contact Doug Phillips at (815) 494-0112 or firstname.lastname@example.com. For general information, contact Rick Schultz at (815) 997-4526 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

R Wines Grenache Chateau Chateau Skulls 2011
R Wines - South Eastern Australia - Australia
The year 2011 was an interesting year for many northern and central European countries, as the weather was more than unpredictable in the spring and summer. However, in most countries, the climatic conditions thankfully settled down in the late summer and fall. The result of this slightly difficult year of weather in France was a set of surprisingly small yields, but overall, these yields were of a higher quality than those harvested in certain previous years. A fantastic set of wines was also made in Italy and Spain, and the Rioja wines - when released - are set to be very good indeed. Austria also had superb year in 2011, with almost fifty percent more grapes being grown and used for their distinctive Gruner Veltliner wines than in the year before. Possibly the European country which had the finest 2011, though, was Portugal, with wineries in the Douro region claiming this year to be one of the best in decades for the production of Port wine, and the bright, young Vinho Verdes wines. In the New World, the Pacific Northwest saw some of the best weather of 2011, and Washington State and Oregon reportedly had a highly successful year, especially for the cultivation of high quality red wine grapes. Chile and Argentina had a relatively cool year, which certainly helped retain the character of many of their key grape varietals, and should make for some exciting drinking. South Africa had especially good weather for their white wine grape varietals, particularly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, and many South African wineries are reporting 2011 as one of their best years in recent memory.
The purple skinned grapes of the Grenache varietal have quickly become one of the most widely planted red wine grapes in the world, flourishing in several countries which have the correct conditions in which they can grow to ripeness. They thrive anywhere with a dry, hot climate, such as that found in central Spain and other such arid areas, and produce delightfully light bodied wines full of spicy flavors and notes of dark berries. Their robustness and relative vigor has led them being a favorite grape varietal for wineries all over the world, and whilst it isn't uncommon to see bottles made from this varietal alone, they are also regularly used as a blending grape due to their high sugar content and ability to produce wines containing a relatively high level of alcohol.
With over sixteen thousand hectares of Australian land now under vine, Australia has become something of a world leader in regards to wine production. One of Australia's key attributes to their success has been their willingness to leave traditional vineyard practices to one side, and develop techniques which are perfectly suited to a New World country. Modern Australian wineries take into consideration the climate and the unique soil types which cover much of their country, and have had fantastic results from cross-breeding programs and blending practices which make the most of the grape varietals which thrive most successfully there, notably the Shiraz and Chardonnay grapes. In recent years, Australia has been lauded as the 'most influential' wine producing country in the world, and the rest of the New World is looking down under for inspiration, and the ability to produce comparable fine wines on their own terrain.

Ruellia Ragin Cajun?
I bought some of these but descriptions of height vary widely from 12 inches to 4 feet. Has anyone grown this plant and how tall did it get?
Mine is still young. I planted it from a 4" container about 1.5 years ago, but I pruned it back pretty hard a few times last season. It is currently 2.5', so 3-4' does not seem unreasonable for an established plant. It may depend upon the growing conditions; sunny keeping them shorter while bright shade, such as mine gets, might produce a taller plant.
I would be interested in if it has the thuggish characteristics that its brethren have. Ruella Chi Chi ran me out of my old house and home. It even hit me in the eye with a spit seed!How rude. I have seen these in gardens and they always look nice but they normally are youngish plants No large specimens.
I hear you about the thugly attributes of ruellia. I had some of the purple ones against a back fence at my previous home and they turned into quite a patch, that was a good thing because the area was beyond the reach of a hose and they seemed happy with no supplemental watering.
I am retired and the garden area I have now is smaller than the gardens in my previous home, so I have both the time and inclination to keep an eye on the behavior of the plants.
I bought mine from Annie's Annuals and Perennials. The description on that site, and in my experience so far, this ruellia is not invasive. I have propagated it easily by breaking off and rooting some of the branches, but it has not spread at all by runner or seed.
Here is a link that might be useful: Ruellia elegans Annie's Page

Kitchen Island Stools
Any recommendations on some stools? I'm looking for great quality, maybe even upholstered (or at least the option). TIA!
I don't have the info on the bar stools that we bought, but here's some random thoughts.
There are 2 different heights for kitchen stools, we bought the 30"; the other ones are shorter (I forget the measurement, 26"(?)).
When the stools are "tucked" in at the bar, they wood gets damaged where it comes in contact with the counter top edge, from pushing in the stools too far.
We have already changed (after 2 years) the material and the foam under the material; the foam was just cheap and it was like sitting on an uncomfortable wood bench.
We also got the stools that self-spin back to face the counter after leaving the seat.
Outside of the damaged wood backs, these bar stools are holding up fairly well.
