Pappy'ion – 1001 Nights (Ali Baba) (1979)
If you can skip all the Euro-pop segments then it's pretty decent IMO. I've looked for an instrumental version only but to no avail.

Pappy'ion – 1001 Nights (Ali Baba) (1979)
If you can skip all the Euro-pop segments then it's pretty decent IMO. I've looked for an instrumental version only but to no avail.
La Doppia Faccia – Alibi (1980)
All hail Dream Chimney TOTD (and special agent Thunderbals) for letting the world know that such a groovy track exists, MP3 addicts can get the full song here.

The small playlist follows: (more…)
Daniela Goggi – Mezza Stella (1981)
synthi & gert – sister susie's synthesizer
A children's song-like track apparently popular in Germany during the late 70's. Cheap, horrible and embarrassing – OR IS IT?
An elegantly sleazy 1979 discolounge track by a Canadian chanteuse
|Every thirty or twentysomething will easily remember this old anime, named differently according to the country that broadcast the show (e.g. Captain Future, Capitan Futuro or Capitaine Flam).
It is worth noting that every European country had its own version of the OST. While, in France for example, Jean-Jacques Debout (see previous post) recorded it, Christian Bruhn released his own version for the German market, in 1980.
Christian Bruhn – Gefahr
Christian Bruhn – Vor dem Start
Christian Bruhn – Durch den Weltraum nach Hause
This OST spawned countless remixes and cover versions. Some are o.k., others are really bad.
The original:
Christian Bruhn – Feinde greifen an
The remake:
Phil Fuldner – The Final (Chronovisor Mix) (1998)
The original:
Christian Bruhn – Space – Wind
The remake:
Wildchild – All Together (1996) – I should still have my Mokum T-shirt somewhere, cleanly packed…
The mini-set played a few hours ago on the radio, ripped, and available for download.
Maybe we will try to repeat those improvised sessions on a regular basis…

The Newton Family is a Hungarian band formed in the beginning in the 60's by 5 members. They used to play pop rock, disco, funk and synth-pop.
Neoton Família – California Dreaming (Kaliforniáról Álmodom)
This song, extracted from the "Neoton Disco" LP in 1978, is of course a cover version of The Mamas & the Papas'… (more…)
|Linda Jane Bull did an awesome job with this ABBA track.She(?) trimmed all the fuss and the extra-sweet pop elements from the original version and spared one single loop only, but what a loop!
This is a wonderful edit full of flange and reverb: the end-result is really dubby and cosmic.
Disco was introduced in Japan with the US military base in the mid-60's. Then… (Read the history here)
Iwasaki Hiromi – Cinderella Honeymoon (1978)
By the way while we are travelling around the world why don't go to Japan. was a popular female singer from the mid-70's.

Hey all,My name is Melissa and I'm very pleased to announce I was just accepted to West Georgia Tech's RN program starting January 2013(Lagrange campus). I was just wondering who else has been accepted! I was 90% sure I wasn't... Read More
- 0Aug 16, '12 by Mrutledge2559Hi. Well it is hard to say what score you will need. I got in taking the NLN and now they are changing to the teas, which in my opinion, is way harder than the NLN. I made a 92 on the NLN and a 72 on the teas. I know another person who also got in with a 92 on the NLN and she had a's B's and a c. I had 5 b's and two a's.
- 0Aug 18, '12 by alifeofelevationThanks for sharing...I'm preparing for the TEAS and an aiming to get in the upper 90's...we shall see what happens!
- 0Aug 18, '12 by Mrutledge2559That's is a great goal. Don't be down on yourself if you don't get there. The national average for that exam is a 64.
- 0Nov 14, '12 by klm8489Quote from Mrutledge2559Just wondering if I could ask you a couple of questions. I am applying for January 2014 so I have to have everything completed by Aug 1 of 2013. I'm so nervous about the whole process. I've been doing good in class but I did receive a C in BIO 2113 but my GPA is good. I have like a 3.5. Just wondering if you think I should retake it? I still have to take the TEAS, which I am not excited about and I plan on starting to study for that just as soon as this semester is over and I know it is worth 60% of the CS points. What do you think? Thanks!Hey all,My name is Melissa and I'm very pleased to announce I was just accepted to West Georgia Tech's RN program starting January 2013(Lagrange campus). I was just wondering who else has been accepted! I was 90% sure I wasn't getting in, the that letter came! I have never been so thankful, excited, and nervous before!So for fall semester 2012 I will be taking all of my non-nursing classes to get them out of the way. I'm taking microbiology and lab, human growth and development psych, and American literature. I'm nervous about taking all of these but if I can buckle down for this semester and really focus it will be better for me when I start those nursing classes we've all heard horror stories about!! Did I mention I have a one and a half year old? Lord, help me!Sorry for the long post! Looking forward to "meeting" others who got in!
- 0Nov 14, '12 by Mrutledge2559Hi, the C won't count you out. What are you other grades? I know someone with a C in bio 2114 and got in. I'm really not sure what teas score will get in bc the national average other test is much lower than the NLN.

Will my companion animal get fat and lazy after being spayed or neutered?
The truth is that most animals get fat and lazy because their owners feed them too much and don't give them enough exercise. Your animal can and should maintain a healthy weight after surgery through an appropriate diet and exercise.
Isn't it better for my cat or dog to have one litter first?
Medical evidence indicates just the opposite. In fact, the evidence shows that females spayed before their first heat are typically healthier. Many veterinarians now sterilize dogs and cats as young as eight weeks of age. Check with your veterinarian about the appropriate time for these procedures.
What about allowing my children to experience the miracle of birth?
Even if children are able to see an animal give birth — which is unlikely, since it usually occurs at night and in seclusion — the lesson they will really learn is that animals can be created and discarded as it suits adults. Instead, it should be explained to children that the real miracle is life and that preventing the birth of some animals can save the lives of others.
If my animal is a purebred, do I still need to worry about its offspring being killed in shelters?
At least one out of every four companion animals brought to animal shelters around the country are purebreds. There are just too many dogs and cats, both mixed breed and purebred.
Will my dog stop being protective if it is spayed or neutered?
Spaying or neutering does not affect a dog's natural instinct to protect home and family. A dog's personality is formed more by genetics and environment than by sex hormones.
Will neutering my male dog or cat make him feel like less of a male?
Companion animals don't have any concept of sexual identity or ego. Neutering will not change an animal's basic personality. He doesn't suffer any kind of emotional reaction or identity crisis when neutered.
But my dog or cat is so special, what if I want a puppy or kitten just like her?
A dog or cat may be a great companion animal, but that doesn't mean her offspring will be a carbon copy. Professional animal breeders who follow generations of bloodlines can't guarantee they will get just what they want out of a particular litter. An animal owner's chances are even slimmer. In fact, an entire litter of puppies or kittens might receive all of a animal's (and her mate's) worst characteristics.
Isn't it too expensive to have my companion animal spayed or neutered?
The cost of spaying or neutering depends on the sex, size, and age of the animal, your veterinarian's fees, and a number of other variables. But whatever the actual price, spay or neuter surgery is a one-time cost — a relatively small cost when compared to all the benefits. It's a bargain compared to the cost of having a litter and ensuring the health of the mother and litter; two months of pregnancy and another two months until the litter is weaned can add up to significant veterinary bills and food costs if complications develop. Most importantly, it's a very small price to pay for the health of your companion animal and the prevention of the births of more unwanted animals. Please browse the directory on our home page to find reduced-cost spay and neuter services in your area.
What if I can find good homes for all the puppies or kittens?
You may find homes for all of your companion animal's litter. But each home you find means one less home for the dogs and cats in shelters who need good homes. Also, in less than one year's time, each of your animal's offspring may have his or her own litter, adding even more animals to the population. The problem of animal overpopulation is created and perpetuated one litter at a time.

PICTURES OF FAIRIES; The Fairy Pictures Educational Art Gallery: Featuring New Fairy Pictures of Celtic, Shakespearean, and Victorian Fairies - New Fairy Pictures created in a style inspired by Classic Illustrators by Contemporary American Artist and Photographer Howard David Johnson... Welcome lovers of fairy pictures and fairy art for all ages... Seen all the great old Fairy pictures in books and on calendars and cards and STILL can't get enough? This gallery is for you! ... Newly Updated for 2014!
Welcome Friends! Click the control key plus the + or - keys to zoom in and out or fit the page match to your monitor's settings.
Fairy Pictures: The Golden Age of Fairy Painting began in the wake of publications such as the tales edited by the Brothers Grimm and revivals of Shakespeare. It has become a tradition...
New! The Ace of Autumn and " The Ace of Spring" MMXIV All in Mixed Media including 3D modeling
"Peter Pan" MMXIV "Faeries" MMXIV" and "Horror of Tinkerbell" MMXIV
A Faerie Knight and The Fairy Hierophant
What are Fairies, Elves, and Pixies?
| The
nearest analogy to the shape of fairy belief in Scotland and Ireland - the Pixies of
southern England is that of the popular oral traditions of the early Arabs.
The best books on Celtic Fairy lore are still "The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns, and Fairies" by the Rev. Mr. Kirk and Keightley's "Fairy Mythology".
Amazingly enough, the belief in a species of Lady Fairies, deathly to their human lovers was just as common in far way Samoa as it was on the banks of Loch Awe.
The Fairy women who come to the births of children and foretell their fortunes with their spindles legends were found in ancient Egypt. The fabled trickery and changeling legends are also quite common the world over.
Since ancient times, the Irish have referred to fairies as the Shee, ( or Sidhee in Gaelic. ) Other names for fairy and fairy like creatures include the pixie, pixy, elf, fay, sprite, brownie, Robin Goodfellow, dwarf, gnome, troll, kobold, peri, hobgoblin, leprechaun, and also included are the nymph, dryad, oceanid, hamadryad, naiad, neried, oread, undine, faun, satyr & mermaid.
A female spirit who wailed to foretell death was called a Banshee.
Many fairy tales popular today had their origins in the folk tales of prehistoric times...
A fairy circle unleashed great magical powers. The Greek Sirens of Homer are a form of these Fairies, as the Nereids, Oreads, and Naiads are fairies of wells, mountains, and the sea.
The evolution of the fairy tale continues to this day.
"The Little People" or Leprechauns were the another race of elves ( fairies ) from the folklore of the Irish. ( or Luchrupan ). They were master craftsmen and hoarded hidden treasure. Like the fairies, contact with them could either be a blessing or a curse. Over the course of a thousand years, the gods of the Ancient Celts, AKA elves and fairies evolved into what we now call lepruchauns or... the little people.
Country People still commonly believed in them until the coming of the television in the 1950's... By the mid 20th Century belief in fairies was thought to have faded into history. In spite of persecution and the ridicule of modern science these beliefs and practices continue to this day.
This Celtic, Shakespearean, and Victorian Fairy Pictures art gallery welcomes you to this celebration of all things Faerie created in a variety of different forms of mixed media ranging from very old fashioned to very, very modern. Modern artist's tools such as photography, airbrushes, and computers make it possible to create pictures of fairies unlike anything we've ever seen before.
Here, in "Elven Fairy Magic", we see elements of of both nature and surrealism abound, especially in the women's faces in the evaporating mist flowing upward and merging with the forest. (lower feft)
I call this a 'Prismacolor Painting', because this kind of picture is really not at all what people think of when they hear the word 'drawing'.
This art medium, these relatively new soft oil based colored pencils are not the first Dry Painting Medium: the term 'Pastel Paintings' originated in the 17th century. They also are a wet medium, mixing well with solvents and applied with an artist's brush and getting very masterfully realistic and some times even oil painting- like results. See 'art instruction' below for more... or for more on mixed media, & style and technique, scroll past the main fairy pictures exhibit for articles and essays on these subjects...

INSTITUTE FOR CREDENTIALING EXCELLENCE, dba NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR CERTIFYING AGENCIES, ORDER 15 16 17 Defendant. _________________________________/ Breining Institute is one of ten organizations approved by the California 18 Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs to register and certify substance abuse counselors in 19 the State of California. 9 CAL. CODE REGS. § 13035(a)(1). In turn, it must be accredited by the 20 National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA). Id. § 13035(c)(2). 21 On March 8, 2013, Breining filed a petition for writ of administrative mandate in 22 Sacramento County Superior Court, seeking an order directing NCCA to vacate its decision 23 denying Breining's application for renewal of its accreditation and to consider the renewal 24 application through a fair process. ECF No. 1-2 at 2-136; see generally Anton v. San Antonio 25 Cmty. Hosp., 19 Cal. 3d 802, 815-20 (1977) (recognizing that administrative mandamus 26 procedure applies to non-governmental agencies); CAL. CIV. PROC. CODE § 1094.5. 1 1 On March 19, 2013, NCCA, a non-profit corporation organized and existing 2 under the laws of the District of Columbia with its principal place of business in the District of 3 Columbia, removed the action to this court, invoking this court's jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 4 § 1441(b). ECF No. 1. In its notice of removal, NCCA claims that "the amount in controversy 5 exceeds $75,000 excluding interest and costs." Id. at 2. 6 7 Breining has now filed an application for a temporary restraining order, which draws the court's attention to the case at this point in time. ECF No. 4. 8 District courts have original jurisdiction in two situations: 1) federal question 9 jurisdiction over "civil actions arising under the Constitution, laws, or treaties of the United 10 States;" and 2) diversity jurisdiction where "the matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value 11 of $75,000, exclusive of interest and costs" and there is complete diversity between the parties. 12 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331, 1332(a). The removal statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1441(a), provides: "[A]ny civil 13 action brought in a State court of which the district courts of the United States have original 14 jurisdiction, may be removed by the defendant or the defendants, to the district court of the 15 United States for the district and division embracing the place where such action is pending." 16 The Ninth Circuit "strictly construe[s] the removal statute against removal 17 jurisdiction." Gaus v. Miles, Inc., 980 F.2d 564, 566 (9th Cir. 1992) (citing Boggs v. Lewis, 863 18 F.2d 662, 663 (9th Cir. 1988); Takeda v. Northwestern Nat'l Life Ins. Co., 765 F.2d 815, 818 19 (9th Cir. 1985)). "Federal jurisdiction must be rejected if there is any doubt as to the right of 20 removal in the first instance." Id. (citing Libhart v. Santa Monica Dairy Co., 592 F.2d 1062, 21 1064 (9th Cir. 1979)). There is a "strong presumption" against removal jurisdiction, which 22 "means that the defendant always has the burden of establishing that removal is proper." Id.; see 23 also Abrego Abrego v. The Dow Chemical Co., 443 F.3d 676, 685 (9th Cir. 2006). Furthermore, 24 "removal jurisdiction is strictly construed in favor of remand." Nasrawi v. Buck Consultants, 25 LLC, 776 F. Supp. 2d 1166, 1169 (E.D. Cal. 2011) (citing Harris v. Bankers Life and Cas. Co., 26 ///// 2 1 425 F.3d 689, 698 (9th Cir. 2005)). Accordingly, "the court resolves all ambiguity in favor of 2 remand to state court." Hunter v. Phillip Morris USA, 582 F.3d 1039, 1042 (9th Cir. 2009). 3 "Where the complaint does not specify the amount of damages sought, the 4 removing defendant must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the amount in 5 controversy requirement has been met." Abrego Abrego, 443 F.3d at 683. A court "cannot base 6 [its] jurisdiction on Defendant's speculation and conjecture." Lowdermilk v. U.S. Bank Nat'l 7 Ass'n, 479 F.3d 994, 1002 (9th Cir. 2007). 8 NCCA has not met its burden of providing sufficient evidence that it is "more 9 likely than not" that the amount in controversy requirement is satisfied, as it has provided 10 nothing but an unadorned, unsupported statement concerning the amount in controversy. 11 Plaintiff seeks a fair hearing, not damages, and it is not clear that plaintiff could even seek 12 damages in an administrative mandamus action. See CAL. CIV. PROC. CODE § 1094.5(f) ("The 13 court shall enter judgment either commanding respondent to set aside the order or decision, or 14 denying the writ."); Smith v. Shewry, 173 Cal. App. 4th 1163, 1172 (2009) (stating that the 15 nature of administrative mandamus is to challenge a specific decision in an administrative 16 hearing as to a particular party). Because defendant has not borne its burden of establishing the 17 amount in controversy, the court need not consider whether an administrative mandamus 18 proceeding is an action, subject to removal. See Mata v. City of Los Angeles, 20 Cal. App. 4th 19 141, 149 (1993) (stating that an administrative mandamus petition is technically not an action, 20 but rather is a special proceeding); CAL. CIV. PROC. CODE §§ 22, 23. 21 ///// 22 ///// 23 ///// 24 ///// 25 ///// 26 ///// 3 1 Because defendant has not borne its burden of showing the jurisdictional amount 2 for diversity jurisdiction has been met, the court REMANDS this case to Sacramento County 3 Superior Court and DENIES all pending motions as moot, without prejudice. 4 5 IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED: March 20, 2013. 6 7 UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 4

The New York Times had a nice article about the purchase of Instagram by Facebook for $1Billion. Whether you think its worth it or not, it begs a bigger question – especially for the larger enterprise community. Does that make mobile mainstream? This purchase didn't kickstart the mobile revolution but for a lot of IT and business leaders, this might have validated their working assumptions and budget bets for 2012/13. The enterprise IT conversation will revolve around a few items which are clearly being validated by the marketplace:
You will see some or all of the above possibly start and live on mobile-only platforms like Instagram and Foursquare. This is going to be a bigger bone to toss because companies are just starting to wrap their heads around the BYOD (bring your own device) concept or supporting multiple forms of employee/stakeholder mobile expectations. Another move is the moving of the above onto private hosting environments. This will make the big boys (IBM, MS, Oracle, etc) have to rethink their licensing models to deal with bursts and valleys of CPU's. All in all its the natural movement of IT. Albeit, the movement is much, much faster than most people have come to get accustomed to in the past 4-6 years. We are in a tech burst (sans bubble) and everyone is just trying to stay afloat. This is just the beginning.

In Shakespeare's era, a group of thespians joined together to break grounds in creating revolutionary theatres and plays. Their work can be said to be the foundational basis for modern theatre. The SL Shakespeare Company exists to relive that spirit; by bringing to the metaverse the Bard's plays—which were written and performed in an era of nascent theatre—we hope to break grounds in developing theatre in Second Life by creating a kind of theatre only possible in the metaverse.
The SL Shakespeare Company's task over the next few years is to bring to Second Life live productions of all of the bard's plays. To do so, we will be integrating some esoteric cutting-edge technology with the best of theatrical talent.
Despite Second Life's temptation in arrays of readily-available prefabs that could resurrect out of thin air the most complete stage sets, we will tend to the classical ideals of elegance, order, and balance. Our productions will be minimal in sets and prop usage, akin to black box theatre, focusing on story and acting. We will, however, take care to outfit our actor avatars with the most historically accurate and most professional clothing, skin, eyes, shape, and hair possible—to complement their performance. To take on the potential for an arbitrary number of simultaneous performances—what Second Life can offer—we will be using cutting-edge bot technology. But, above all this, we will uphold the core of live theatre: ad lib and audience interaction will be fully possible.
Each production will be taken on and financed by a private producer who would pay a share to have access to the assets of the SL Shakespeare Company. Salient assets of the company include the following departments: Wardrobe, Animation, Technology, and SL Stagecraft. Our Wardrobe Department is equipped with fashionistas well aware of period-style clothing, props, and hair, and has exclusive access to handmade custom photorealistic skins, shape, and eyes by SLface.com. Our Animation Department works closely with our Technology Department to create avatar motions that appear seamless and natural for our live production avatar bots. Our "SLS" or SL Stagecraft department works closely with the producer of each play and our other departments to choreograph the final live production.
The premier production to open in 2008 is Hamlet, which is taken on by Ina Centaur Productions. Ina Centaur is also the founder of the SL Shakespeare Company, and will be contributing many of the Company's foundational technologies and means.

Well, I'd love to be able to say that the reason I've been such a bad girl and not blogged just recently was because I've been so gosh darn busy, but…well, hand slap for me- I've just been plain old lazy! Sorry! I do most definitely and profusely apologise, because- apparently- there are actually quite a few of you out there that read my blog from time to time! So, thank-you for some of your comments and sorry again a thousand times over! *Bad girl-mental note taken*
So, here we are again in the Little Beauties world and as it is officially May 1st tomorrow I thought I'd celebrate the fact that there are only 29 days to go until I celebrate my 21st Birthday! As it's such a prestigious occasion, I have decided that I'm going to start a new feature which will be cropping up on my blog from time to time from now on, so…say Hello! to Mood Board Monday.
With it being a birthday time of year, as it is of course the best time of year to have a birthday, I thought we might start off this little feature with a touch of inspiration for wrapping all those lovely birthday type gifts. So here you go…
And there you go…lovingly crafted and photoshopped together by my own fair hands from my collection of 'Little Wrapping Beauties' and others on Pinterest.
Now if you haven't already got pinterest, I certainly suggest you do, it's a wonderful website full of beautiful images ready for you to put into collections and group together onto your own virtual pinboards. So, if you like Mood Board Monday, why not make a mood board everyday with Pinterest and then leave me a comment with a link to your page and I can get an idea of the things you like too?!
I'm looking forward to it already!

Konkani at the Konkan Cafe @VivantabyTaj
A mid-way between casual and fine dining, on one hand you will find the serenity of a fine diner and on the other one can find stewards flocking together to sing on your birthday with all the Konkan Café style razzmatazz. The Konkan café serves you cuisines from the coastal belt starting from southern Maharashtra all the way up to northern Kerala. coconut is one go to ingredient when it comes to coastal cuisine and I dont mind eating it all day long.
I started with a refreshing glass of Sol kadi (made of Kokum a fruit indigenous to the western ghats and know for its cooling properties) enriched with coconut milk with a prominent flavour of garlic. It worked as a perfect aperitif made be impatient till the next course arrived. In the interim I ordered a glass of the Konkan Café Chenin Blanc to go with the poppadams and the assorted chutneys on the table.
Kelfulache Vade
Made of Banana Flower an ingredient used rampantly in Asian and south Indian cuisine. This was steamed, spiced, pattied, deep fried and served with coriander and coconut chutney. Very piquant in taste, I could associate it with tart deep-fried plantain.
Vafleli Usal
Mix of different sprouted lentils tempered with curry lead and mustard and had a hint of ghee. Soft steamed sprouts made into a warm salad like preparation was delish. I went in for a German Riesling an off dry style with the starter, trust me it was a match made in heaven.
Phanasa chi Bhaji
A dry raw Jackfruit preparation is definitely a rarity in the city. A must have of you have never tried a jackfruit preparation. Suggest you have appams/neer dosa with the same.
Basale Gassi
Gassi is a wet Mangalorean preparation made with coconut and red chillis and flavoured with cumin and coriander. It is popular for its fish variants but this one was with spinach. It went well with Sannas, a Managlorean idli like preparation made with rice flour but the gravy by itself was lacklustre I thought.
Bebinca a classic Goan dessert, a must for celebrations; is a layered pudding made with eggs, milk, and butter/ghee. The Konkan Bebinca was served warm with ice-cream. Soft and opulent with a hint of sweet spice, the ice-cream in this case or some custard can help to make it a bit moist. I tried a few retailed in Goa a couple of times but never again, I am so glad to find it here in Mumbai!
Elaneer Payasam
This chilled dessert is coconut milk sweetened with jaggery with bits of tender coconut. A real palate soother!
- Lovely ambience
- Veggie Meal for 2 @ INR 2500
- An Indian restaurant without a tandoor, this is coastal cuisine
- Authentic food replicating the local, I can tell I am a Konkani
- For a non-vegetarian account of the place read this by Antoine Lewis
- They are open for breakfast on the weekend serving South Indian fare. Pick anything for Rs 150.
Thank you, Dhanyavada, Upkaram Devo baro karon!

sea food
Konkan is located at the Taj Vivanta Hotel, and every time I visit Mumbai I particularly take out time to visit Konkan Café. They serve delicious Konkani food and my particular favourite is the Non Veg thali, if you are fond of Sea food one can try the Sea Food thali. Fried Ravas fish is a must try dish here.
The other dish that is simple and healthy is the moong dal khichadi.
The service is warm and you can always ask for recommendations as the staff suggests the best of the dishes.
I would highly recommend this place for all occasions.

Good South Indian food.
Went with family, good south indian food but not priced right for the taste. Being Taj, i expected more better food. No new dishes except maybe the Neer Dosa, else nothing not tasted before in south indian homes usually.
Can improve more, but thumbs up on decor and hospitality.,

Superb food and superb service
This restaurant is truly a five star restaurant. Excellent menu, superb quality ingredients, great preparations and above all, exceptional service. The ambience is well done as well. Highly recommend the seasonal banana flower appetizer, kajuchi usal, solkadi and the malabari paratha.

Udupi-style fatafat thali at 5-star
Are you one of those patrons who can't but glance greedily at the neighbour's plate while you wait impatiently head to Konkan Cafe? The five-star eatery is going the fast food way and has launched a thali they promise to whip up under 10 minutes, or you get 50% discount on the meal. For more details

Divine food!
Konkan Cafe was one of my destinations on my gastronomic pilgrimage before I bid farewell to Mumbai in a weeks time. A dear friend and colleague has a special fondness of this place and high regard for their chicken/veg stew and melt-in-your-mouth Appams so Konkan Cafe it was this evening when we decided to meet for an impromptu dinner.
Konkan Cafe has the hallmark of Taj hospitality- polite and cheerful staff, gorgeous ambience and wonderful service. The basket of mixed papads were perfectly fried, non oily with the right degree of "crunch" factor- the chutneys that accompanied it were wonderful. The green chutney was my absolute favourite. I ordered the seafood thali while my friends chose the vegetarian thali-the food arrived promptly and was absolutely perfect. All the dishes were flavoursome and had a home cooked wholesomeness about it. The appams lived up to their melt-in-your-mouth softness, the neer dosas were served warm, the egg appams were unique (although i preferred the plain appams which were frankly out of this world), the rasam, sambhar, mangalorean fish curry, and fish fry were just gorgeous. BTW, the appams are steamed in the front and brought to the table in bamboo steamers separated by layers of banana leaves (Can you tell I loved their appams? )!! The pulao was beautifully fragrant and just like something that my mother would rustle up...Konkan Cafe lived up to its reputation and some more. The service was discreet yet efficient, the maitre d' was very helpful..and the meetha paan at the end of the meal finished off the meal perfectly. All in all, a very leisurely meal amidst a great ambience and the food can only be described in one word- DIVINE! Definitely, a place that I will visit again..this time with my better half and family in tow!

Excellent Prawn Gassi & Solkadi
Went to Konkan Cafe for a quiet meal with my beau. I had some inhibitions at first since I am not particularly fond of Indian stlye sea food. But I was amazed at how differently flavorful the food tasted. We were not too hungry so we decided to share 1 starter and 1 main dish. For starters we ordered a charcoal roast chicken dish. It was excellent. I tried some Solkadi while he decided to stick with the good ol' diet coke. Bet you he regretted that decision, coz I gulped down the last drop of my Solkadi. It was too delicious to waste or share. :P For main course we ordered Prawn Gassi and RIce. Prawn Gassi is spicy prawn curry. We asked for it to be extra spicy.. by the end of the meal our noses were runny and ears were steaming. No regrets though, coz we enjoyed every bit of the meal. Meal for two - Damage- Rs. 2000

Oh Panna!!
Yeah... apologies to the meat-eaters!
It's amazing to find some real cool veggie stuff at Konkan Cafe... I tried the Panna (raw mango extract) which is as refreshing as any drink could ever get... You may also like the Kothmir vadi (fried / steamed balls of gram flour, coriander and spices) and ofcourse the paneer bhurji... simply delicious...
Pure veggies beware -- the Appam is made with a coat of egg yolk spread all over... You may want to miss that..
The place is tucked in one end of South Mumbai (Taj President)... With Trattoria's staff standing a hand-shake away, you may be tempted for some Italian magic.. but KC has a charm of its own... excellent decor... polite staff (trademark Taj!)... and good food.. It's what you can expect from the great Chef Ananda Solomon!
My regards to you, Sir!
P.S. Had the privilege of working in the KC kitchen for 3 days... was fun!

Pricey, but Goan Food Second to None
Being in the Taj, it should be understood that this will be a hit to your wallet. Now that it is behind us, I simply need to tell you that this has the best Goan seafood in town. Try the Goan Prawns (my fave). All the crab dishes I have tried were delicious. Wine selection is also good for wine enthusiasts. One more warning: this place is expensive!!!
September 19,2006
Suddenly so steep!!!
I remember going to KC a couple of months ago or may be even a year, when i had relished the Veg Thali, especially the appams and the rasam. Had enjoyed it even more because it cost some Rs 300 odd. I was quite amazed to find out that the same thali (infact every item in it was ditto) now costs Rs 550 plus taxes!!! It was nothing exceptional either. The unlimited crunchies they serve as starters along with some nice chutneys, was the highlight of the meal. Of course, the ambience of the restaurant is very ethnic, feels like u r dining in one of those huts along the coastline, but surely wouldnt wana pay that much for some food i can eat for Rs 50 - 80 in the bylanes of Matunga.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- Dyer County is earning praise for its support of rural economic development.
The Tennessee Rural Development Committee says the northwest Tennessee county has received the 2012 Rural Development Award for outstanding Local Programs.
Committee Chair Bobby Goode says Dyer County officials helped build up resources and infrastructure that support small business development, including farms and ranches.
Agriculture drives the county's economy, with more than 230,000 acres under cultivation. The committee says that production of soybean, grain sorghum, wheat, corn and cotton pumps more than $136 million into the local economy.
The county also is working to prepare adults and youth for leadership positions in business and the community.
The Tennessee Rural Development Committee is partnership of federal and state agencies that coordinates programs for economic development in rural communities.

Michael Capodiferro, a student at Hampshire College, has written the script for Even The Dogs Know and is planning to direct the short film as his senior project. The film is about the lengths someone will go to find someone to talk to. In a description of the project Capodiferro briefly outlined the process of developing the script: The script work for Even The Dogs Know began almost a year ago in January.

Robert Altman's Nashville is one of the towering achievements of 1970s New Hollywood Cinema, a portrait of the hub of the country music scene by juggling a myriad of characters, from self-appointed king of the community Haven Hamilton (Henry Gibson) to its biggest star, Connie White (Karen Black), from the emotionally fragile Barbara Jean (Ronee Blakley) to comically intrepid BBC reporter Opal (Geraldine Chaplin) and campaigning politician Hal Phillip Walker (Thomas Hal Phillips), a presence seen but never heard.

On his latest film, Philomena – the story of journalist Martin Sixsmith's quest to help the title character (Judi Dench) find the son who was taken from her 50 years previously – Steve Coogan is not only the lead actor but also the screenwriter, credited alongside co-scribe Jeff Pope. Coogan is a veteran performer who started out on British TV, where he created such characters as Alan Partridge, and moved into film, making both mainstream Hollywood funny fare like Night at the Museum and Tropic Thunder and more sophisticated humorous expeditions in the UK, such as Michael Winterbottom's Tristram Shandy: A Cock […]by Nick Dawson on Nov 22, 2013
12 Years a Slave — the title of Steve McQueen's latest, taken from its source material, the Solomon Northup memoir — is one of the most direct and descriptive of recent cinema history. But consider further the subtitle of Northup's 1853 book: "Narrative of Solomon Northup, a citizen of New-York, kidnapped in Washington city in 1841, and rescued in 1853, from a cotton plantation near the Red River in Louisiana." It's one of the film's extraordinary achievements that, as it lands in theaters nationwide with the headwinds of an Oscar frontrunner, it tells, on its most basic level, that story.

"We're not special. We're not brilliant. We never were." So says David Harbour's character in my film Between Us. And he's right. Most of us probably started as writer-directors by necessity, but at a certain point in a filmmaker's career (and of course, if you have an actual "career," you will eventually cease to be a filmmaker, and become instead a "filmSmaker"), you will realize you're probably not as brilliant or talented as you once thought you were. If you were indeed a genius screenwriter, you're probably better off writing scripts for Hollywood and actually getting paid to write anyway. […]by Dan Mirvish on Oct 10, 2013
Writing in a genre like horror is a balancing act between striking all the traditional chords and finding a new way to engage — and frighten — your audience. There are certain plot points that more or less must be reached, but how that's done is where the audience gets all its enjoyment and where all the writer's creativity comes into play. There's been lots of engagingly original horror films coming out lately — The Conjuring, You're Next, etc. — but to specifically discuss the writing process I wanted to talk with someone who's still at the development phase. Jeffrey […]by Randy Astle on Aug 26, 2013
This is the first of a three-part series on the independent horror film AfterDeath, which is currently in post-production. The first part is an interview with writer Andrew Ellard, while the following parts will feature an interview with producer and co-director Gez Medinger. In school, Andrew Ellard thought he wanted to be a cartoonist, but it took a long time and a "not very successful A-level art" for him to realize that he actually couldn't draw. This led him to a second revelation; that he wanted to tell stories — he'd just picked the wrong medium. After finishing school, Ellard […]by Michael Murie on Aug 6, 2013
An often stirring and certainly very odd meditation on the difficulties and ambiguities of love and friendship about a pair of female teenage assassins, Violet & Daisy is the debut feature of Oscar-winning screenwriter Geoffrey Fletcher (Precious). A tricky balance of near camp, New Wave aesthetic hijinks and earnest melodrama unfold in this three-handed chamber piece and are for the most part deftly pulled off by Fletcher and his collaborators, who have made a film that is reminiscent of both grindhouse cheapies (Danny Trejo is in it after all, albeit very briefly) and Godardian reveries. Ex-Gilmore Girl Alexis Bledel and Atonement's Saoirse Ronan play the title […]by Brandon Harris on Jun 5, 2013
Imagine that you grow up to be a successful filmmaker? Cool, huh? Now imagine that you get to wake up (or continue the previous day's all-nighter) and go to work with some of your best friends. Even better. Throw in the fact that you are good buddies with the lead singer of one of your favorite bands — who also happens to play your boss on your acclaimed sitcom — intergalactic, Hollywood-star-slaughtering monster/Gwar frontman Oderus Urungus plays your imaginary friend, you have become peers and collaborators with childhood idols and inspirations ranging from Chris Columbus (screenwriter of The Goonies and Gremlins) and […]by Billy Brennan on Jun 4, 2013
"The independent screenwriter" — is the term a tautology or oxymoron? While the word "independent" is often applied to directors and sometimes producers, it's rarely seen appended to the job title of screenwriter. Is that because so many independent directors write their own scripts? Because screenwriters-for-hire are inevitably drawn to the world of Hollywood? Or, perhaps, because the term means little when applied to the craft of screenwriting? After all, while a director is reliant on others to provide financing and labor, a writer can always sit down with pen, paper or word processor. In this new, occasional column, we […]by Scott Macaulay on May 8, 2013

If you're a gardener, then you know. There are so many varieties of mint, but certain ones are supreme. How did the essence of a bergamot orange, best known for flavoring Earl Grey teas, get captured in a mint leaf? Who knows the mysterious ways of nature, but gardeners call this herb, "orange mint".
Fortunately I was able to have this unique variety of mint grown for The Republic of Tea in our Pacific Northwest. I wanted a tea that would warm the stomach, stimulate digestion, and ease the passage of food through our intestines. I called upon lemon thyme and anise hyssop, both rare delicacies in the tea world. I knew this tea wouldn't be complete without ginger whose potent pungency heats the interior like no other.
I drink Orange Ginger Mint Tea any time of the day and always find it is just what my body wants.

How to dissolve an Alabama Limited Liability Company
How do you dissolve an Alabama limited liability company?
To dissolve your LLC in Alabama, you must provide the completed original and two copies of the Domestic Limited Liability Company Articles of Dissolution form, to the Judge of Probate in the county where the original Articles of Organization were recorded, by mail or in person. An original signature is required.
A dissolved LLC may not carry on any business except as necessary or appropriate to wind up and liquidate its business and affairs.
Is there a filing fee to dissolve or cancel an Alabama LLC?
To dissolve your limited liability company in Alabama, the Secretary of State filing fee of $100 is required. You will need to contact the Judge of Probate Office to verify their recording fees, but it is a minimum $50. Two separate checks are required.
If you would like to expedite your dissolution for an additional $100, you must call the Judge of Probate to see if they except expedited dissolutions. Some counties only process as they come in.
If Northwest is your original registered agent, send your dissolution to the Shelby County Judge of Probate. The Judge of Probate Office there charges $56 to record your articles of dissolution, and may be contacted with questions at (205) 669-3720.
Do you need a Department of Revenue clearance before the Alabama Secretary of State will accept your dissolution?
How long does it take the state to process the filing?
Once the Judge has determined that the Articles of Dissolution conform to Alabama law, they will be recorded and two copies will be certified. This certified copy of your recorded Articles of Dissolution will be your LLC's certificate of dissolution. Within ten (10) days of the recording the Judge will transmit the other certified copy of the Articles of Dissolution to the Secretary of State, along with your filing fee.
How long before someone can take your business name?
You have 120 days after the recording of your Articles of Dissolution to file a revocation. After those 120 days your dissolution is permanent and your business name can be taken.
What is the penalty if you do not dissolve properly and just don't file your annual reports?
The Alabama Department of Revenue collects a Business Privilege Tax return from all limited liability companies in Alabama. If the return is not filed and paid when it is due, a penalty of 10% of the amount due is charged or $50, whichever is greater. Then you will continue to add an additional 1% penalty per month it goes unpaid. The Department of Revenue will turn your case over to their Collection Services Division before the following year's Business Privilege Tax is due. Collection Services will get a court order to seize whatever is needed to satisfy your company's debt to the Department of Revenue. No agency in Alabama will administratively dissolve your business. So if you don't want to face the same expensive litigation every year, file a proper withdrawal with the Secretary of State.

Discrimination towards SAH survivors
Lauren D - Dec 10 2014 01:26 PM
|Thank you for visiting Behind the Gray. We are an online support community for those whose lives have been affected by a subarachnoid haemorrhage or stroke.
Our aim is to offer friendship, support and a place where you can share your highs and lows. We are not qualified to give medical advice, but hope that you can benefit from our own experiences and those of our families. Membership is free and we hope that you will join us and share your own experiences.
"During my own recovery, I have found the support of others who have been affected by a SAH or stroke to have been a great comfort. To be able to communicate with fellow sufferers and share experiences is of paramount importance and a great aid to recovery."
Joining an online support group can often be an excellent way of coping with your illness. If you are experiencing difficulties after suffering from a SAH or stroke and have difficulty leaving your home, an online community can often be one of the greatest first steps in coping. You can maintain your anonymity which helps many become more candid about their feelings, fears and frustrations. You may also learn information and tips that you might not have been aware of about your illness or that of a loved one.

Loyal is a 1988 album by New Zealand singer-songwriter Dave Dobbyn. After the Footrot Flats album, Loyal moved him further away from the pub rock of DD Smash and into contemporary pop rock. The album "confronts love, loyalty and the power of personal politics." The album reached number 9 on the New Zealand music charts. The hit single Slice of Heaven from the Footrot Flats soundtrack was also included on the album, despite it being nearly two years old at the time of the album release. Dobbyn commented that the song fit in with the general theme of loyalty.

Case Studies | Promising Practices | Q&A's | Resources
Students who have no sight cannot access standard printed materials. Students who have had no vision since birth may also have difficulty understanding verbal descriptions of visual materials and abstract concepts.
Consider the description, "This diagram of ancestral lineage looks like a tree." If one has never seen a tree, it may not be readily apparent that the structure of note has several lines of ancestry, which can be traced back to one central family. However, students who lost their vision later in life may find it easier to understand such verbal descriptions. Additionally, demonstrations based on color differences may be more difficult for students with blindness to participate in and understand than demonstrations which emphasize changes in shape, temperature, or texture. In some cases, the assistance of a sighted person is required in order for the student who is blind to gain access to the content of your course.
Ready access to printed materials on computer disk can allow a blind student, who has the appropriate technology, to use computers to read text aloud and/or produce it in Braille. Some materials may need to be transferred to audiotape. Since it may take weeks or even months to procure course materials in Braille or on audiotape, it is essential that instructors select and prepare their materials well before the materials are needed. Special education services or disabled student services typically coordinate Braille and audiotape production and facilitate access to adaptive computer technology.
During lecture demonstrations, clear, concise narration of the basic points being represented in visual aids is important. This technique benefits other students as well.
Other examples of accommodations for blind students include tactile models and raised-line drawings of graphic materials. Special education or disabled student services staff can help locate or create these materials.
Adaptive lab equipment such as talking thermometers, calculators, light probes, and tactile timers can maximize access to labs for students who are blind. In addition, computers with optical character readers, speech output, Braille screen displays, and Braille printers allow students who are blind to participate in computer exercises and on-line research. In addition, web pages used in your course should be designed so that they are accessible to those using Braille and speech output systems. The disabled student services office, special education, and/or computing services staff can be consulted when addressing computer access issues.
Clearly, for a student who is blind, access issues vary according to specific academic activities, such as:
- Large lectures
- Group/work discussions
- Test taking
- Field work
- Science labs
- Computer labs
- Computers
- World Wide Web pages
- Distance learning
- Writing assignments
- Travel programs
- Work-based learning
For more information on communication between faculty and students with disabilities consult the DO-IT publication Effective Communication: Faculty and Students with Disabilities.

I watch others come in and go out. They go on. I stay.
Dear Trevor,
As for watching, I fear that I was a watcher too much of my life.
As I read your letters about this Will and Misty, I'm not sure who is the villain and who is the hero. I guess from my point of view, as the third-hand reader of your second-hand narrative, that Will is the obvious villain—the one you'd expect to be the bad guy in a movie. But I think Misty Lee may be the real villain.
The trick is, she's only the villain in this little chapter. In the next chapter—and that turn of the page from one chapter to another happens second by second—she may be the hero or the damsel in distress. One moment, she may be playing one boy against another like a kid poking ants with a pin. The next moment, she may be in the class of that teacher of yours, Mr. Schick, where he's shaming her for some harmless part of her nature.
When I got out of the service and went to school, I was sure as could be that I wanted to be a writer or an English teacher. That's what I was meant to do, I'm pretty certain. I'd saved enough in the service to go to college and I made it three-and-a-half years through Seattle U before my uncle talked me into going into the real estate business with him. So I did that. Opened up the office, started signing papers and scratching out a little money one weathered house at a time.
I spent as little of the money I made as I could. Like your mother says, I am naturally thrifty. But I always managed to take a little money to the bookstore and buy books. It drove your mom crazy when we'd go weeks at a time without stepping into a restaurant, but books would show up in the mail. Faulkner, Stegner, Greene, Roth, Vonnegut, Bellow. I would cut off my left arm for a little case of their books right now, where short, sharp sentences nearly set the book paper on fire.
My own rambling writing in these letters here always works shyly around the corners, taking these four paragraphs to get to the point. Here it is: Those men—certainly greater men than me—they did what I wanted to do. They put pen to paper and made their living at it. I only dreamed about it. I only watched them do it. The only writing I did was real estate closing documents and believe me, no one ever reads more than a few words of those.
I'm still a watcher. I sit here in this seaside village of watchers. I watch others come in and go out. They go on. I stay.
Let me know what happens with Will Mudgett. If I was there, I'd be watching, too.
