Culture Capital
Yodakin in Hauz Khas Village attracts the young and restless.
I have met the best minds of my generation by gate crashing their house parties. Growing up in Kurla, a suburb in Bombay where the only celebrity was a Gladrags model, I never imagined that one day, on the same evening, I'd be crashing two house parties in Delhi's Jungpura area, Geoff Dyer in tow. That too, barely three weeks after I had moved.
Sixteen months later, the novelty hasn't worn off. The suburban girl in me is still overwhelmed when I bum a cigarette off Pablo Bartholomew, or am invited to a dinner by Gauri Gill. Or when I throw a party for Sarnath Banerjee and he tells me he was so excited he told his mother about it. Or when I crash a dinner at William Dalrymple's farmhouse in Mehrauli and am serenaded to by Paban Das Baul.
The Delhi "house party" is a reflection of its buzzing cultural calendar. There's more than one book waiting to be written about these BYOB treats. But I've come to know of the unspoken rule: what happens at a house party stays at the house party, so I could never tell you who said what to whom and who spent most part of the evening making out with whom (and wouldn't you like to know).
Flash back to 2009. Mumbai Times Café in Bandra, Mumbai. An Open-Mic night. I'm covering the event for Time Out, the city-based magazine I worked for then, and I'm bored out of my mind. For the first time, I understand the meaning of the word "ennui". I scribble a single line on a fresh page of my diary, "I'm tired of waiting for the revolution that I now know will never happen."
A few days earlier, I'd been to yet another monthly meeting of the legendary Poetry Circle, a critique group that once featured poets like Dom Moraes and Nissim Ezekiel, to find only two other people there. I'd spent that entire week looking for something or someone to believe in and had been put off by traffic jams, exorbitant cover charges and lacklustre events. Something was amiss. The theatre scene, my beat, was frustrating; the writing scene came alive just once a year during the Kala Ghoda Festival when the city's literati would suddenly remember their Marathi-writing kin; and music concerts were for those who could afford them. I was tired of living with my parents but couldn't dream of managing either the deposit—between Rs60,000 to Rs1 lakh—or the outrageous rent for living in a decently sized one-BHK.
So I returned to Delhi. I'd spent two years here as a student at Jawaharlal Nehru University. It was familiar territory. I found a barsati the size of a tennis court in Hauz Khas overlooking two tombs, the Qutub Minar standing squarely in the distance. My rent was just Rs8,500. When the landlord sought a ten per cent increase, I moved to a 3BHK in Khirki Extension, which I share with two others so my rent is a mere RS5,000.
So, what does a week in the Delhi social calendar look like? Let's look at what happened from April 4-11. From April 4-6, most of Delhi's intelligentsia could be found at the "Free Binayak Sen Campaign", a three-day affair hosted by Alliance Française. From performances to film screenings, from panel discussions to poster exhibitions and Dastangoi, the atmosphere was electric. The Indigenous North-East Theatre Festival that kicked off on April 2 will continue until the end of the month. On April 9, Yodakin, an independent bookstore had young writers read extracts from works in progress in an inspired event called "Hold the Novel!" From April 8-10, Delhiites feasted on jazz at the sprawling Nehru Park. Stretched upon the grass, not having paid a paisa to get in, nine bands in three days—it was the perfect weekend treat. What made Monday (April 11) less terrifying was knowing that come 7pm, we'd be listening to Parvathy Baul, and when that wrapped up, just a few steps away musicians Hari and Sukhmani would be fusing their Punjabi folk roots with an electronic vibe. And this was actually a slow week in Delhi. A fast-paced one is when almost every other day, there's between three to five must-attend events happening across the city. And chances are you could actually make it to all of them, a feat you could never imagine pulling off in Mumbai given the nightmarish traffic.
Delhi is a thinking city almost by default. It has two central universities to boast of, each with sprawling campuses that foster debate and protest. Cultural institutions like Sarai in the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies promote discussion around planning and development, besides nurturing art. Khoj, an artist's collective in Khirki Village, often works with the community in which it is located and funds artist residencies. In a span of a few years, its mere presence has led to a whole sub-group of Khirki residents—writers, artists, photographers—who are enticed by the cheap rent. Informal hangouts like Yodakin, Greenhouse and Kunzum Café in Hauz Khas Village attract the young and the restless and encourage them to think beyond the mainstream. Then there are the publishing industry-funded book launches and art exhibition openings, both of which feature open bars and facilitate networking with publishing bigwigs and art enthusiasts. And there's the music scene with a range of venues like The Living Room and the newly opened Boogaloo that promote emerging and established musicians and bands.
It's hard to find a parallel for some of these spaces in Mumbai. Is there anything like Yodakin that promotes independent publishers and filmmakers and hosts events every other week? For instance, on April 30, owner Arpita Das has enlisted The Pleasure Project, a group that promotes safe sex, to host an event titled "Share Your Pleasure", an evening where people will share their fantasies. A few steps away in Hauz Khas Village, Greenhouse, a studio-like set-up supported by the Goethe Institute, calls itself a "community space for creative practitioners". Part gallery, part store, part school and part canteen, the agenda is to support multiple disciplines and ideas. At the moment they're hosting "Your Flyer Here: The Indian Music Flyer Project" that hopes to "reflect and define emerging cultures of music, art, design, communication and activism". Kunzum Café is a two-minute walk away, but once you enter, its easy to feel as though you're in a cottage somewhere along the foothills of the Himalayas. The hand-painted walls recreate scenes from Ladakh and Leh, the photographs that line the wall highlight the place's "traveller" theme. There's free wi-fi, you can make yourself a cup of coffee, grab a few biscuits, or bring your own dabba if you so desire. The price? Whatever suits you? Just drop in some cash in the wooden chest on your way out.
The Bagel Shop and Gloria Jean's in Bandra come to mind as I look for equivalents in Mumbai. But each time I visit I find myself surrounded by Bollywood scriptwriters and cinematographers working out strategies to convince some hotshot producer to finance their hatke film venture. The bagels at Bagel Shop aren't half as enticing as those you get at The Bagel Café in Hauz Khas Village, where apart from the free-wifi, the café also allows artists to exhibit their work on the walls. And then there's Zenzi, the place in Bombay where everybody used to know your name. I'm not sure they do anymore, since the place seems to shut down periodically and in its new avatar is infinitely less charming. Café Goa, in Bandra, was perhaps the one place with a genuinely creative vibe, especially so during events hosted by the Bombay Elektrik Project. But just this morning I learned it was shutting down.
Samovar and Prithvi Café you say? Those are institutions steeped in nostalgia about their heyday. Samovar closes by 6pm and forever lives with the fear of being shut down, and let's face it, ever since Prithvi Café was taken over by Mocha, it's never quite been the same.
Over the last decade, Mumbai has lost out not just to other metropolitan cities like Delhi and Bangalore, it has faded in comparison with its own avatar as a cultural hub. Waves of migration have put serious pressures on space. The result—escalating rent rates, congested streets and commercial success at the loss of its cultural lifeline. Although the city is still home to a few of the country's finest writers like Kiran Nagarkar, Vikram Chandra, Arundhati Subramaniam, and artists like Akbar Padamsee, Sudhir Patwardhan and Jitish Kallat, to name a few, it has lost its lure and can no longer provide refuge to future generations of bohemians who can't afford to make a living there and yet be true to their art, unless of course, they have aspirations to Bollywood stardom.
"In Madras, if you say you're a writer they say, which police station? In Bombay, if you say you're a writer they say, 'which movie'? In Delhi, you don't need to say you're a writer. They already know," said Jeet Thayil, the poet, musician and novelist who only recently shifted from Mumbai to Delhi.
Vijay Nair, a music entrepreneur, festival organiser and director of the indie music company Only Much Louder, who splits his time between Delhi and Mumbai, has similar reservations. "I will never do a festival in a place which doesn't feel like one," he said when asked if he would consider hosting a music festival in Mumbai. "Delhi has more indoor venues that support live music." This, he believes, sets the scene for an assured, critical audience. "Check out nh7.in," he said. "You'll find there are always more gigs happening in Delhi than there are in Mumbai." He had a point. Apart from the gigs listed on the website, there are regular open-air concerts featuring some of the best Indian classical musicians in the country, courtesy the Society for Promotion of Indian Classical Music and Culture Amongst Youth (Spic Macay), as well as Sufi and qawwali festivals, and occasionally, productions like Roysten Abel's "The Manganiyar Seduction" an outstanding concert featuring the Manganiyar tribe of musicians at Delhi's Purana Quila.
Does Mumbai share the same fate as Greenwich Village, the hamlet in New York that once attracted some of the most phenomenal artists who were drawn by its promise of cheap rent and the presence of like-minded individuals? The Village, which was at one point in time known as the Bohemian capital of the world and the birthplace of the Beat movement, is now an affluent suburb that is home to the upper-middle class. Is the story of Mumbai's cultural glory a thing of the past, another example of the familiar plotline of the rise and fall of cities?
The British built Mumbai as a commercial city. It still has the Midas touch. It's a city custom-designed for visionaries and entrepreneurs. But over time, the visions have become shortsighted and the quality of ambition is limited to the pursuit of money. Where are the dreamers? Where are the drifters? Where are the thinkers, the "angel-headed hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night?"

Hmm. The reaction you're getting is pretty predictable since you're praising Delhi on a website called Mumbai Boss.
The debate is of course never-ending. I've myself lived in both cities twice now, and am constantly comparing them. I gushed like this when I moved to Bombay the first time in 2005, and hated Delhi with all my heart. But after my last 2-yr stint in Delhi, I've changed my opinion and want to eventually move back for good…more for the space, greenery and peace than anything else. (It could be an age thing as well
This article has some interesting observations and quotes. I also feel Delhi's changing for the better, and Mumbai for the worse.
And Bombay isn't as unbiased as I thought it was 6 years ago. Or as safe.
The writer felt more important in Delhi than in Mumbai is what I am able to gather from this article. I prefer Manu Joseph's critique. I have lived both in Delhi and in Mumbai and I much prefer Mumbai because it doesnt expect you to conform to its 'intellectual' persona which demands you dress a certain way and meet certain people. Delhi from this article itself sounds elitist and full of itself. And I definitely think that the movies of today affect the youth a lot more than the so called intellects of Delhi who attend a lot of festivals and go back to their Colonial liefstyle.
Better yet, minus the censorship. This says it all:
@Chelu: Would you rather riyaaz not take over and have people say it's on the verge of shutting down like samovar? give the man credit for taking it under his wing. if you think he wasn't making more than enough money before that move, you need to think again!
Sure, the endless debate conjurs up the possibility that one is better than the other. The fact is shit is shit, no matter what shade of brown. Both cities are totally lacking in intelligent debate, genuine culture and new ways of engaging their own urbanity. William Darymple, for fuck's sake – is he representative of a what makes a city "interesting"?? I'm pure Bombay, so excuse my cynicism but Hauz Khas looks depressing – like the backpacker/ Kathmandu version of a fantastical Greenwich Village. I think we're spending too much time here thinking about whether bagels are cooler than paninis, and not enough time imagining what our cities could actually be… where does class intersect? how does culture get manufactured? who gets to create culture? let's elevate the discussion!
thanks to Regina P for trying…
Dolc, I was tempted to post a wikipedia link which clearly states that India has about 39 central universities. Four of these happen to be in Delhi, UP also has about 3-4. There is 1 for the whole of Maharashtra, located in Wardha for the promotion of Hindi language. For anyone who's ever considered teaching as a profession, the Central Universities pay much better salaries.
Among the state-owned institutions in Bombay (by which I mean centrally owned), there's the NGMA which is infamous for being remote-controlled by Rajeev Lochan, Director (NGMA, Delhi). Whether or not you can have a thriving student or artist community in the absence of state funding is debatable. But I can't help but feel that assessment of Bombay's former glory, like the present glowing appreciation of Delhi, is uncritical. Delhi's always had more than it's fair share of artists and writers, it's just the investment and scale which has changed. But yes, they have always been relatively less approachable, more hierarchical and certainly clannish.
Speaking as a foreigner living in Bombay for many years, but also having spent a lot of time in Delhi, as well as someone working innthe cultural sphere, my personal view is that both cities are really culturally malnourished. That having been said, I find Bom to be a much more pleasant place, though Delhiites are on average more interesting to talk to (though that in general is not enough to overcome the other deficits detailed by other commenters above… especially aggressiveness, snobbery and clannisnness).
If anything Delhi is less open, both socially and culturally, but it's one big advantage over Bombay will always be there… it is the capital, and the benefits of being the capital of a big country in terms of cultural offerings are invariably huge…
Dear Rosalyn,
Wow !!
Reading something good about Delhi after a long while. It has that romantic lyricist meet journalist tinge to it with an undercurrent of longing for having such cultural spaces in Mumbai as well.I liked it because you mentioned the Universities, cultural society such as Spic Macay and Sarai,in the same article. These are institutions/societies that are often left out from the cultural descriptions of social spaces. Delhi University and JNU play a vital role in nurturing the aesthetic consciousness of youth through societies like Spic Macay. Sarai is doing some good research work on urban media spaces.
Ms. D'Mello… I'm not a pseudo-intellectual or a successful gate-crasher… Will you still be my fraaaand?
Stop harshing D'Mello, man.
'Or when I crash a dinner at William Dalrymple's farmhouse in Mehrauli and am serenaded to by Paban Das Baul' – You were serenaded both *to* and *by* Paban Das Baul? I wonder what William D had to say to that.
Rosalyn, I'm very happy for you that you met so many Famous People in Delhi, and got to rub shoulders (and much else) with them; however, I cannot, in all conscience, recommend gate-crashing house parties as your claim to fame. Sometimes, one does not invite people for a reason.
"Mama… I just killed a man… Put a gun against his head; pulled the trigger now he's dead…" … A rhapsody that is, hopefully, "bohemian" enough for Delhi…
Samovar was always (even in the eighties) almost shutting down…
And when did Prithvi Cafe get taken over by Mocha?
In Hyderabad we have Lamakaan… Which may or may not be anything like the places you've spoken of but they continuously work at it…!!!
I've lived in Bombay all my life and I just moved to Delhi about two weeks back, after stiff opposition from family and friends. I currently work with an online bookstore here. On my first visit itself, I was convinced Delhi is certainly a much more livable city – god bless the roads and public transport – and this article is certainly re-assuring. What's more, it's given my ideas about all the places I can now explore. Thank you for the wonderful read, Rosalyn.
ummm…. riyaaz is the owner of prithivi and has a rep to do anything to earn money with no ethical boundaires so please don;t count his opinion.
i wll say there are loads more art events (please do not conufse 'art' with 'culture': it completely distorts the discussion…).
we constantly have new events and people flowing through the city with ideas to open more community events made for expression of whatever form. the art conspiracy last year was great. we the people has juts kicked-off and has some excellent plans. the art loft is there, though it, too, is quite elite. bombay elektrik had its day before turing into a boys' club of a greedy, money-grubbing shallow insiders who betrayed the people who made them worthy of notice to begin with… but i do laud the effort they made. and loads more things starting up and doing there best here all the time.
and please don't forget that bomnbay has a far mroe diverse population than delhiwhich manes the community based events are constant, on-going and truly rich and diverse.
i know rosalyn and love her dearly. but i think these anglophonic events for tye elite in a.c. spaces with firnagi products like wine are hardly a measuring stick for 'culture'. and, i am guessing that gate-crashing and watching the same old drunken elite artists hobnon will grown dull for anyone over time.
so, to each her own, i prefer this city for a variety of reasons but fully grasp why rosa is so excited by delhi since it offers her things we have less of, 'cept for the old sobo scene which grows tiring if one exposes themsleves to it too frequently…
Lets take it as 'Just Another Opinion'. Good read,however, unfortunately, blatant name-dropping tactics fell flat..
I've never been to Delhi, so I will accept whatever you state about the place as the gospel truth. I agree that Mumbai may have lost a bit of it's charm. Ok maybe a lot of it. But you start off by saying you lived in Kurla where you only got to rub shoulders with a gladrags model. Whereas Delhi offers you a chance to mingle with famous folk who're excited that you, YES YOU!?, are throwing them parties. I wonder what the chaps mother thought about it but we'll save that for another day. If you were covering an event at mumbai times cafe, i'm sorry to burst your bubble but, you had a terrible job! I know of people who've left Delhi cause apparently what happens at parties haunt you for the rest of your life. So that rule about what happens at a party is applicable only to certain parties, in which case thats the same here! The fact that nobody knew that you rubbed shoulders with that Gladrag model bares testament to it! I honestly don't care for art and culture and yet i know a couple of musicians as well as artists who're doing fairly well! they pay rent and everything! it's amazing! if low rents lure people to delhi who then have no time to spare cause they're busy hobbling from one do to another, are they ever going to make a living? i hope prices of weed and hash are really low for their sake. i mean come on man, gimme a break!
and how can you mention Prithvi and forget about..ermm…PRITHVI!
So nobody gave you a chance here and you've somewhat made it in Delhi(i assume since i'm reading this garbage), wanna go through a list of people who've come from Delhi and are probably better off her than you are there???
ThatSlyGuy and Regina P, amongst others, have already proven what a terrible article this is, hence i choose to dwell on the silly points. besides prithvi theater of course which is Regina's Point.
Yeah but they totally screwed ID Rock
P.S. i'm with Riyaaz, whats wrong with Prithvi?
Cheers Roman. Also, Alex, really? Read the subtext man.
Culture should certainly not be mixed with farmhouse parties and wine but if the author truly wants to be bohemian in Bombay, I wonder why she didn't choose to drink toddy and rent a room in a chawl. It's certainly more bohemian than Hauz Khas. Oh wait a minute, she probably needs to shop at Khan Market (one of the costliest retail market properties in the world) or catch up with the hoity-toity in order to be able to name-drop some more. Which reminds me, why did she choose to leave out the likes of Rana Dasgupta and Raghu Karnad from her exclusive list of male friends?
So why is Jeet Thayil allegedly chaddi-buddies with the Delhi Police? After their rather hectic work hours, I didn't think they'd need to read his work to fall asleep… I would like to walk into a police station in Karkarduma or Rajouri Garden (still Delhi, though not the fallalalalala part referred to above) and, upon being accused of something, exclaim – "tu jaanta hai main kaun hoon? Main Jeet Thayil ka khaas dost hoon"… Will the officer then fall at my feet begging for mercy? I think not…
All the critics here have summed up most of what I wished to say… I don't know how many of you actually know the writer, but I'll borrow a phrase from RU who has commented above – "full of gas"…
thanks for your great article. it addresses a lot of the issues i've been going through as well having lived in Mumbai 2007-2009 and now splitting my time between Pune and Delhi since then.
I used to really dread coming to Delhi in the days of staying at cheap hotels in Mahipalpur and Pahargunj and dealing with merciless traffic, pollution, et al.
It all changed when i got tapped into the real vibrant art scene happening in places like HauzKauz, TLR, and others…
I hate to be cliche and just compare Delhi and Mumbai because they are really entirely different beasts…but in terms of overall quality of living, etc… I much prefer Delhi…and i find it to be very cosmopolitan.
I'll stop myself here.
Rosalyn meet Raj Thackeray … Raj Saheb, meet Rosalyn. You two would get together quite well. Migration has pretty much fucked Mumbai in the ass, I am sure you'll both agree. Lets all drink some Maharashtrian wine from Nashik and vow to fight this cancer that is eating into our culture.
*clinks glasses and cheers*
While Delhi seems to be liberated from the fanaticism that pervades Mumbai, lets not forget there is a certain organic nature and entreprenuerial spirit that drives existence in Mumbai. So while armchair liberals in Delhi drink wine and discuss Jack Kerouac or the hidden feminism in post modernist movements, people in Mumbai actually go to work in sub human conditions.
East Village and Greenwich Village (which the author quotes) movements were born due to similar suppression that Mumbaikars face from police, Shiv Sena and corrupt local corporators. Matter of time before they erupt (hopefully) like Tahrir Square.
Culture should not be mixed with farmhouses and wine parties!!! Quite elitist and snobby….
think we need to applaud the writer for a perspective which till some time ago, would have been hard to believe. Mumbai, has enjoyed, due to its multi cultural influx of Indians looking for a life dramatised by bollywood and dreams of making it big, attracted some of the finest talent in the arts and business. Delhi, whilst culturally just as diverse, did not have the same quality of people, influx. I believe its the change in that, mixed with institutions of repute that Delhi has an abundance of, that is changing this perspective of it being a city of landed gentry from the old days only interested in partying and showing off as one of our fellow contributors have written. As an indian, I hope more cities in India are seen as culturally evolving and setting benchmarks for the world to follow.
Kudos to MB for bringing to the fore!
Frankly, both cities are beginning to get terribly boring and pseudo, especially the art scene. Bumming a cigarette of Pablo Bartholomew (or "Bablu Bathroom-mein-lo" as he calls himself) is no big deal, am sure he musta bummed it off someone else too. As far as Jazz goes, we do have our own lil gigs. Did Delhi get a taste of the Joshua Redman Trio? While Bombay, to you, might seem quite constipated, Delhi, for me, is a whole lot of gas!
What I am enthused by is the debate the piece has generated, how it has shocked both Mumbai and Delhi into a sudden cultural awareness. For the first time I find myself rallying together all the different cultural highlights of my city.
Competition tends to do that to you, and while I whole-heartedly agree that this country needs both Mumbai and Delhi to be vibrant (why not ten culture capitals), I think a little sharp-tongued competitive criticism can be the gadfly we all need from time to time.
What is remarkable, though, is that the writer, whose work I have followed down the years, has loved Mumbai with a passion we'll find hard to match. So, if you can, re-read this article as written by one whose love has been, in some ways, betrayed. She writes so angrily and feels the lack of something so keenly because of how significant the city still is.
I say, let's have lots more of this kind of sharp-tongued debate, and some real-world responses. If Mumbai needs more parties and Dilli's other artistic face needs visibility, let's give Mumbai parties and the other face visibility. Our grouse with the writer is of no import; our working to improve our city is.
I'm not sure Mumbai was ever a cultural hub for our generation. Delhi has had the luxury of a wealthy cultural elite that loves to show it off through parties and events and exclusive house parties that somehow end up being made available to gatecrashers who are friends of a friend of a friend. The fashionistas and the artists gel well together and the more grand and flashy it all is, the better.
Mumbai's cultural scene is more formal and deep rooted, galleries in the south and ncpa concerts and tea parties on fancy terraces. Its not a party scene at all and its almost impossible to get in. Its no wonder the suburban bollywood scene is more open and booming, given that this is where the 'gatecrasher' mentality works.
The author seems to aspire to a certain type of definition of culture and "coolness" that is currently uniquely Delhi. But this doesn't mean that Mumbai giving the title away, the country is big enough for both to thrive in their own way.
nicely written rosa!
as a firang who has stayed in bombay for many years, i have witnessed my home city changing i0n ways which sap some of the delight which used to come along when a new venue opens or a new performance group enters the scene. no question we have become pricey, elite, and the soul which used to provide a strange combination of innocent openness and cosmopolitan sophistication is sorely lacking aajkal. sigh…
that said, i was in delhi for a week in march and was sadly disappointed in so many aspects of being in the city, moving around, interacting with the aam janta, the massive empty spaces filled with rubble and more rubble… the horrific air quality, encounters with aggression from more sides than i could count (from the rich boy in his a.c. car thumbing his nose at the world around him to the boys in the park who seemed to want to fight with me just because…).
it was for sure a quick visit but two things struck me quite strongly: the surliness, lack of smiling, and generally unpleasant way people greeted me, from rickshawallahs to the myriad people i watched wearing their privilege way to boldly on their sleeve in a way somehow less palatable than the snottery i experience here in bindaas bombay… and, quite shockingly, the vast expanses of incredibly ugly slabs of urbanity. from the decrepit and completely charm-free lado sarai market to the endless spaces filled with half- or un-built edifices… many of which were hard to see through the thick, dust and pollution-swollen air…
it is my home in the end but i must say i was very happy to leave delhi and return to a calmer, happier land called bombay…
As much as I love Delhi, this article is waaaaaay biased. Bombay lacks infrastructure and Delhi doesn't. But you forget Delhi was quite the slum pre Common Wealth Games! OFCOURSE it's great and ofcourse you're going to love it if you're hanging with Sarnath or at William Darlymple's farmhouse in Mehrauli. Looks like the "I know this one" and "I know that one" bug bit you? How is who you're hanging out/being seen with even relevant to this whole comparison? meh
Nicely written though…more facts and less of whatever it is you're trying to convey next time please! Bombay has more music FYI… no one even tours Delhi justsaying!
Bombay's where it's at! Delhi just has nicer weather
That was a good read indeed..
Wonder why most writers on this website have all at some point written for TimeOut. Is no one else noticing the pattern out here?
Your upper middle class bias is clearly evident in the fact that you were able to count Delhi University and JNU as the only two central universities in Delhi, obviously missing out Jamia Milia Islamia, which has been a central university for well over 2 decades.
Clearly a place like Jamia isn't cool, hip, or 'fab-india' chic enough to figure on your list. What I am really trying to say is that, while I love Delhi and Bombay in equal measure, your article/piece/commentary reeks of a certain class bias, which is the one thing (in my opinion) that makes Delhi lose out to Bombay. The air of self importance and exclusivity that every Delhi-ite feels somehow divinely entitled to. There is so much more to Delhi than the kind of get-togethers that khadi/cotton clad frequent and the clique that most Delhi-ites (and wannabe Delhi-ites) feel so utterly proud in being part of.
"Waves of migration have put serious pressures on space. The result—escalating rent rates, congested streets and commercial success at the loss of its cultural lifeline."
Nice argumentative leap there Rosalyn. Bombay is in decline, as you have proved with numerous examples, and what is the only reason you offer? Migrants! It's all their fault. They drive up our rents, clog the streets and dilute the culture. They take our jobs and sleep with our women.
Have you considered joining the MNS? I'm sure Raj would be delighted to have you as a representative. And I promise I won't tell anyone you're a migrant in Delhi.
Come on guys. This is her opinion. You're free to have your own without knocking her's down.
And to say Mumbai lacks such parties/Salons is kinda silly especially on this website (MumbaiBoss) itself.
I remember Nayantra one of the editors of this website had written a piece a while back http://mumbaiboss.com/2011/02/23/hard-talk/
where it was clear that such 'salons' happened in Mumbai too.
Really has Mumbai lost out to Bangalore? Just the other day I read Rahul Akerkar and his wife Malini say they wouldn't bother opening up an Indigo in Bangalore since the city shuts down at 11pm.
Does Ms Dmello want us to believe that Delhi isn't over crowded? That there is no traffic congestion in Delhi and that living rates in Delhi are cheaper than Mumbai? That migration hasn't affected Delhi? To believe that would be ludicrous! Delhi has traffic conditions far worse than Mumbai during peak hours.
When did Kala Ghoda become the art festival or literary event that mattered? For far too long its been something that only attracts crowds that are interested in buying over priced street maal. Most writers that frequented the (f)art festival really didn't
What happened to Kala Ghoda Cafe? I believe that's a place many writers frequent? Though I haven't been there in a while, I have read many good things on Mumbai Boss about it.
Delhi has more music events? Probably smaller events happening at the various consulates or the IHC. Delhi couldn't even manage a Bryan Adams event. Hahaha
Delhi cannot be called a cultural heart centre if a female producer of a news channel is punched in her face while on the job at India gate and the police just stand by as mere spectators.
As Chetna an earlier commentator stated, Manu Joseph of Open is quite right when he says that Delhi is exactly the opposite of a cultural capital. Its got none of the intellectual types that Mumbai can boast of. What it does have is a bunch of folks many who have made a lot of illicit money and would like to spend it on whatever they can. While in Mumbai? You will see the real intellectual types that actually spend on art because they love it.
Honestly I feel Rosalyn D'Mello is like one of the freebooters described in this article http://www.openthemagazine.com/article/art-culture/the-real-culture-vultures
I would rather live in a city that's safe for women over the so-called culture hub of Delhi.
Funny, Manu Joseph of Open Magazine says exactly the opposite of Delhi as a cultural capital. He looks at the same intellectual atmosphere of Delhi – but asks, what of it? What does it amount to? He is of the opinion that it is mere self-indulgence, and I think it is the truth. Because if Delhi was genuinely the cultural capital – we would see new ideas, new fights, new ways of life emerge from there. But we don't.
I think Joseph's argument is more interesting to read … a lot more than Ms D'Mello's bumming ciggies of Pablo!
Sounds like the writer was more successful at gatecrashing parties in Delhi than she was in Bombay. Now there's no denying that Delhi has had a sort of late flowering. It's always been smarter than Bombay because of it's various universities and cultural institutions, but it's become a freer, less oppressive place to live in, especially for women. Low rent neighbourhoods have given rise to pockets of artistic residents. Both factors have no doubt enhanced the city's cultural experience.
I'm no apologist for Bombay, but I'd argue that the cultural scene here is on par with the capital. Some parallels that the writer might have overlooked are Blue Frog, which has overhauled the city's music scene, The Hub in Bandra, which routinely has music and theatre events, Pad.ma which hosts film screenings and Prithvi. In her self-congratulation, D'Mello naively underestimates Prithvi, which continues to be a relevant space for social and cultural dialogue. Delhi has nothing like Prithvi.
D'Mello says that Bombay's visions have become shortsighted. No doubt. But one thing votaries for Delhi, including D'Mello, overlook is the capital's extreme myopia with regard to its underprivileged. The city has an impressive history of activism on national issues. But it's local poor are voiceless. In Bombay, if you demolish a slum there is, not always but often, a clamour. At the risk of sounding simplistic, the poor have some sort of voice. In Delhi, colonies of slums are erased noiselessly. That's why in one sense, Delhi seems a disturbing aggregate of several parallel worlds that float alongside each other without quite touching. To be truly vibrant, culture must constantly engage in dialogue with society, with politics. Parties are of course important cross-currents of cultural debate, but they're not the only thing.
Brilliant read! You have not just compared two cities but have also described the differences so vividly that I almost felt I was in your place experiencing everything myself!
While I agree Delhi has far more and better venues given the space availability there are options in Mumbai if you know where to look. A variety of events on a smaller scale have started popping up as I'm sure Mumbai Boss can attest to.
Some of the more well known ones – Alliance Francais, Shamiana and some multiplexes have movie screenings including short films. Mocha has a variety of events all round the year. Various music events happen at NCPA, Blue Frog, Mehboob studio.
Hey I completely agree with you that Delhi is leading the good fight.
But why do you say prithvi cafe is no longer the same.
Its gotten better.
Well written – enjoyed! Shows that the writer actually experiences what she writes on which makes the writing lively & bursting with energy.
Dear Rosalyn, please do tell me where this 'barsati' in Hauz Khas is that cost you 'just' Rs 8500. Having come from JNU (where I presume a samosa is 'just' Rs 4 and an entire month food bill is 'just' rs 1000) I am quite surprised that you should find solace in the elitist, super firang air of Hauz Khas village. Not to mention how awful that jazz festival was and why most big bindi-salt pepper hair junta should feature at most of what you call cultural events. While I do not disagree with you that there is always something happening in New Delhi, I would have liked it better had you been slightly more critical of this 'cultural capital'.

Garmin Oregon 650t (Photo: Business Wire)
Also new to the Oregon is the full track view—where users will see the entire elevation plot and quickly move their zoomed view to any place on the plot. Future plot uses users' mapping data to show them what to expect ahead. Weighing just over 7 ounces, the Oregon 650/650t come with a rechargeable NiMH battery pack (optional with 600/600t) producing a state-of-the-art dual battery system. The battery pack provides up to 16 hours of life on a single charge and will re-charge itself within the unit when external power is detected. When out on a long adventure and additional power is needed, users can use two AA batteries as a backup.
There is no longer a need to take an additional camera into the outdoors to capture "real" quality photos. Oregon 650/650t's built in 8 megapixel autofocus digital camera takes photos worthy of sharing or printing and keeping. Each photo is geotagged with the location of where it was taken, allowing users to navigate back to that exact spot in the future. Take charge of the next adventure with BaseCamp™, software that lets users view and organize maps, waypoints, routes, and tracks. This free trip-planning software even allows users to create Garmin Adventures— where they can upload their photos for online storage and share with friends, family or fellow explorers. BaseCamp displays topographic map data in 2-D or 3-D on their computer screen, including contour lines and elevation profiles. It also can transfer an unlimited amount of satellite images to the Oregon when paired with a BirdsEye Satellite Imagery subscription; users can even view pictures from other devices on microSD with Oregon's picture viewer. Users can also wirelessly transfer large files like photos, Garmin Adventures and Custom Maps between Oregon 600-series units (or with the BaseCamp Mobile app). In addition, the new Oregon series allows for waypoints and tracks to transfer up to 50x faster. Oregon is also ANT+ ™ wireless compatible for heart rate, cadence, chirp and tempe sensors.
On the road: Optional City Navigator mapping provides detailed street maps, millions of preloaded points of interest and onscreen turn-by-turn directions to your destination, and an optional Auto Nav kit adds a suction mount and car charger. On a hunt or on a hike: Using a separate TOPO U.S. 24K DVD or microSD card brings you the highest level of topographic detail available, with maps comparable to 1:24,000 scale USGS maps, featuring terrain contours, topo elevations, summits, routable roads and trails, parks, coastlines, rivers, lakes and geographical points. On the water: Add BlueChart® g2 maps, which provide everything you need for a great day on the water, including depth contours, navaids and harbors. On the run or on a bike: Ideal for a trail workout, the lightweight Oregon is compatible with Garmin's heart-rate monitors and speed/cadence sensors, and an optional handlebar mount makes it easy to track your speed, distance, elevation and location.
Unlimited Geocaching: The Oregon can hold an unlimited number of geocaches and supports GPX files from OpenCaching.com for downloading geocaches and details straight to the unit. Using this paperless geocaching feature, users are not only helping the environment but also improving efficiency. The Oregon stores and displays key information, including location, terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions— it even filters users caches to make searching a breeze, and connects to Chirp ® enabled caches.The new Oregon's are expected to be available in Q1 2013 and will have a suggested retail price of $399.99 (600), $479.99 (600t), $479.99 (650) $549.99 (650t).

Sweet Potato Station: 30 Sweet and Savory Dishes
With origins in Peru, sweet potatoes were introduced to the rest of the world by Christopher Columbus. It wasn't until the mid 1700s that the term sweet potato was used to distinguish it from the more common white potato. They have now become a staple during the fall season and for good reason: they are packed with vitamin A, potassium, and antioxidants, and loaded with a rich flavor.

It's ok if you never have to change a bulb.
By Keith M. from Snoqualmie, WA on Aug 02, 2011
The design on this unit is pretty good until you have to change a burned out bulb. The bulb sockets are mounted sideways in the back of concave the circular light housing. The bulbs click in so you have to hold the tiny bulb sideways and reach to the rear of the fixture and try to snap it in while trying to keep the light head from swiveling around,good luck .

On January 9, 2007 NOAA provided a press release stating that preliminary temperatures for the United States indicated 2006 was the warmest year on record. Included in the press release was reference to a new method for correcting biases in observations (Version 2) that had a preliminary rank for 2006 as the 2nd warmest year on record. After receipt of additional observations for 2006, temperature statistics were updated on May 1, 2007. The late data changed the rank for 2006 to the 3rd warmest year on record for the old method (Version 1) and the rank remained as 2nd warmest for the new data correction method (Version 2).
Why such changes occur is rooted both in the way the observations are processed for quality and the delay in receipt of data on paper records from many stations. The observations come from the U.S. Historical Climatology Network (USHCN), a network of 1221 climate observing stations in the continental United States. These data are extensively quality controlled for errors and for small biases that may have occurred through time due to artificial changes at each observing station. These artificial changes include station relocations, different instrumentation, and changes in the landscape surrounding the station (e.g. urbanization, removal or planting of vegetation, etc.). Some of these changes may result in "random" changes to the data. For example, even small station relocations can result in temperature readings that are either slightly cooler or slightly warmer than what would have occurred at the former site. Other changes, such changes in urbanization in the vicinity of the station or changes in observing times, can systematically affect temperatures, e.g., add an urban warming bias to the temperature trends. Research has shown that the data from these kinds of changes can be corrected to a large degree based on physical and statistical methods (e.g., see Peterson 2006).
Methods that have been used to correct temperature data are described in more than a dozen peer-reviewed scientific papers by NOAA's National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). A series of data corrections was developed to specifically address potential problems in trend estimation of the rates of warming or cooling in the USHCN. They include:
These data correction schemes have been applied to the USHCN to determine temperature trends across the United States up until the end of 2006. Beginning in 2007 improved correction schemes for items 1 and 3 above have been applied to the USHCN observations (Menne and Williams 2005, Menne and Williams 2007). They have been shown to improve our ability to monitor climate change and variations. Because different algorithms were used in making corrections to the station data in 2007 there are small differences in annual average temperatures between the older corrections (Version 1) and newer Version 2 corrections. These small differences in average temperatures result in minor differences in annual rankings for some years. The new correction scheme has virtually no impact on the long-term temperature trend as annual temperature trends in Version 1 from 1895-2006 were 0.112°F/decade and in Version 2 the trends were 0.110°F/decade.
NOAA continues to work to improve the quality and representativeness of climate data provided to the public and scientific communities. In addition to advanced quality control procedures, these efforts include modernization of the USHCN by installing new, more accurate instrumentation, and ensuring proper station siting in the process. In addition, by the end of next year NOAA should have in place a U.S. Climate Reference Network, a set of 114 very high quality stations optimized for monitoring climate. The operation of the US Climate Reference Network will virtually eliminate the need for the types of corrections that have to be applied to data available today. The modernization of the US Historical Climatology Network will enable trends of regional temperature to be estimated with far fewer data corrections.

United Church of Christ roots in the South may not be as deep as in other parts of the country, but signs of the denomination are bustin' out in Clemson, SC. Members of Peace Congregational UCC –– a new church planted and opened just 14 months ago –– have cultivated a series of 10 catchy, thought-provoking posters lifting up the church's commitment to re-imagine faith, justice and mission.
"They're a little edgy, which is what we wanted, and they speak to the South," said the Rev. Susie Smith, church pastor. "We knew we needed to reach a new group of people. There aren't many UCC people around here that have grown up in UCC churches."
Count among them poster-series developer Shell Amond Miller and Caleb Suttles, an 18-year-old graphic designer. Suttles, a video production business owner, has used his artistic touch to give the posters "pop."
"I was very grateful to be able to design the posters for the church," said Suttles. "Finding Peace Congregational has truly been an enlightening and liberating experience for me. I'm happy to have found a group of believers who are not plagued by the condemnation and hatred that I experienced in church growing up."

DWTS Beats Flippin' Burgers
While I was getting my drivers license at the age of 16, Dancing with the Stars front-runner Zendaya is on track to rake in $345,000 during the ballroom battle, if she can make it to the finale that is. According to her "DWTS" contract, Zendaya collected $125,000 to kick off the competition and appear on the first two weeks of the show. After that, she gets paid weekly — SOP for all the contestants. The good news for the dance-savvy Disney star — the money goes up, the longer she can last. Here's the breakdown: Weeks 3 and 4: $10,000 per week ($20k total)
- Weeks 5 and 6: $20,000 per week ($40k total)
Weeks 7 and 8: $30,000 per week ($60k total)
- Weeks 9 and 10: $50,000 per week ($100k total)
Grand total for all 10 weeks: $345,000 You gotta understand, Zendaya's been blowing away the competition — meaning there's a good chance she could take home the mirror ball … and with it, all that cash. Sure beats flippin' burgers.

Matthew, no shunning intended! I just picked a number! But thanks for chiming in! I just picked my 1st 5k so I'm impressed with your marathon - go you!!
Since nobody is sure what to post about in this room, I'm going to keep it "age related".
By 35, I had hoped to own my own home, to have traveled moderately, to own vs. lease a car, & to have been married.
Two out of three ain't bad! Love my little house and my 2nd Chevy!!! As I close out 35, I'm ready to embrace what God has in store for me!
How about you? What did you/do you hope to accomplish by 35?
35? Can that also mean 2035
This is a very good question, and the more I think of it, I'm sure the more I'll have to share! But, here's a few for starters:
Get my B.A. - shouldn't be too hard as I only have two semesters left.
Start a career in the Communications field.
Pay off my student loans.
Buy a car that's reliable, maybe a Ford Explorer.
Fall in love with a man who loves me.
Get married and start a family.
God-willing, we'll all succeed in accomplishing our goals!
I hope to accomplish three more birthdays.
Really though, I set small goals for myself all the time. The larger things that are important to me and don't require a husband have been accomplished. (I just bought a car on New Year's Eve. The car I'm replacing is a '93, so sigh of relief there.) I try to keep it simple and not make too many hard deadlines for myself anymore- when unexpected events throw the timeline off, I don't want to get too down on myself. Been there and done that with 30! You know what they say: "Man plans and God laughs!"
Since I'm turning 33 in less than 24 hours, I don't have much time left.
- Move to the Pacific Northwest.
- Find my vocation.
- Make and maintain more friendships.
- Meet the woman of my dreams.
- Learn more about my faith.

Five Questions about Cee Lo Green's Alleged Ecstasy Sleazery
Categories: News
According to TMZ, Goodie Mob member and solo vocalist, Cee Lo Green, is wrapped up in some messy, confusing shit.
It's a like a he-said, she-said warzone out there. And Green is trying to avoid a cap in his ass.
The charges are grizzly: The Top 40 superstar is being accused of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman.
But there's a few things about this case we can't quite wrap our head around.
5. 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine or Flunitrazepam?
The alleged victim claims she and Cee Lo had a drink and then she doesn't remember anything else. Oh yeah, she also claims that Cee Lo later admitted to slipping her MDMA. But Molly doesn't make you black out? Assuming Mr. Green put something in this lady's drink, what was it?
4. Who Gave What to Who?
One source told TMZ that there is a recording of Cee Lo discussing the couple taking Ecstasy together, but he never mentions drugging her with it covertly. And another says that's total bullshit because if such a recording existed, Cee Lo would already be behind bars.

The Seigle House by Lohan Anderson
Lohan Anderson have sent us photos of the Seigle House they designed.
From Lohan Anderson:
The Seigle House is located in the Lincoln Park community, north of downtown Chicago. It occupies two typical city lots and was deigned for a couple with grown children who regularly visit and stay with their parents. Both in massing and exterior colors, the house consciously relates to the predominant neighborhood context of brick and stone residences. For that reason its exterior façade is made of limestone on the ground floor and an innovative terra-cotta cladding on the upper floors. The familiar colors and textures of these materials, sand-beige and orange-red, harmoniously blend the Seigle House into the pre-existing, residential character of the Lincoln Park neighborhood.
The ground floor, the garage and the front and back yards are enclosed by a continuous stone wall. The volume of the upper two floors appears to be floating above the ground floor being separated by a continuous band of clerestory glass. A small penthouse addition on the roof provides access to a deck which one can view the city's downtown skyline. All of the four levels are connected by a grand staircase that is visible from the outside through a monumental four story high window on the north elevation.
The interior spaces, generously proportioned, are carefully detailed with quality materials by the architects Lohan Anderson, while the furniture and fabrics were selected by Leslie Jones & Associates.

I think I've just found my dream house… and it's even in my neighborhood! Unlikely it'll ever be in my price range, however.
Omid on 02 Jan 2009 at 8:49 pm #
I have walked by this house numerous times and always had admired the exterior, but I never knew what the inside looked like, and now I do. Such a well made piece of art compared to the other cookie cutter places in the area.

what corner is it on? i'd love to see it from the outside in person.

The inside and outside is far better in person! Love visiting them!

2013 OIE Faculty Awards04.08.2013
The Office of International Education held its 2013 Annual Faculty/Staff Awards reception on March 28, 2013. The following individuals were honored at this event.
Link to Event Photos
Dr. John Carroll - OIE Study Abroad Award
The Study Abroad Award, given by the Office of International Education, honors a faculty or staff member who has made significant contributions to the study abroad effort at the University of Georgia by working directly with a study abroad program and/or greatly contributing to the infrastructure that advances the UGA's overall study abroad effort.
Dr. John Carroll, is well known for his research and teaching on conservation and wildlife, but even better known because this work has taken him all over the world. What is most significant, however, is the way in which Dr. Carroll has engaged students in international teaching and research. In 2005, he received a National Academies of Science & Engineering grant to provide international research experience for undergraduates in rural areas of the Republic of Georgia. This program evolved into a field natural history and ecology experience focused on conservation in southern Africa. Since , Dr. Carroll has taken students to both South Africa and Botswana to develop their field skills, but also to help them understand the challenges of conservation outside the USA, and especially move beyond the television view of wildlife conservation in Africa. Dr. Carroll's students leave as internationally-engaged and informed graduates, empowered with a global view. A student who participated in his Botswana program last summer shared the following anecdote: "Three endangered wild dogs were poisoned on the property during the course. Instead of downplaying this tragic event, Dr. Carroll organized for the Head of Anti-poaching for the property, Rex, to come speak to the class. Students learned about what had led to this event and what could and could not be done to address it. Rex expressed that international pressure, above anything else, is the best way to bring attention to and financial support for stopping such poaching. Thus, students left feeling empowered to speak out on this issue on their return to the US."
Ms. Betsy Wenthe - Open Arms Award
The Open Arms Award is given in honor of Mary Ann Kelly who played a leadership role in the International Student and Scholars and Immigration Services unit of the Office of International Education. The award honors University of Georgia faculty or staff that that have gone beyond their formal duties to facilitate the presence of international students and scholars.
Ms. Betsy Wenthe is administrative specialist in the research group of Dr. Jessica Kissinger in the Center for Tropical and Emerging Global Diseases. CTGED is deeply involved in international collaborations and Betsy Wenthe was nominated by her colleagues for her efforts hosting international researchers and making them feel welcome. Dan Colley says in his nomination letter, "she has run errands for newly arrived trainees, getting them at the airport, making sure they have a place to stay, which often involves housing them or their families at her home until suitable arrangements can be made. She tends to such things that boggle the minds of some visitors – getting the utilities turned on , navigating a supermarket, or finding flatware, sheets and toilet paper to make it through those critical and challenging early weeks. She has donated many of her own household items to allow trainees to cook or clean in their new accommodations." Yet, as another colleague notes, Betsy is humble and doesn't really think she is doing anything above and beyond her responsibilities in all she does for international visitors. A university's international reputation is built on more than the US News and World report rankings. Because of Betsy's efforts, international scholars and trainees return to their home countries sharing with others the warmth and welcome that they received at CTGED and UGA – which more than anything else attracts a new generation of international scholars to UGA.
Dr. Leigh Poole - International Diversity Award
The International Diversity Award, jointly given by the Office of International Education and the Office of Institutional Diversity, honors a faculty or staff member who has shown dedication to promoting diversity in its many forms within international populations and activities at the University of Georgia.
Leigh Poole is UGA's associate director for International Student Life and has an extensive background in international education. She has received a Fulbright fellowship twice, taking her first to South Korea and then Germany. She serves as the Chair of NAFSA, the Association of International Educators, Region VII. At UGA, Leigh Poole is the force behind many of the international and intercultural themed activities and events at UGA including Archway to the World, the new international student orientation, the International Street Festival, World Fest, Global Friends, and the international coffee hour in Memorial Hall. Throughout her career, Leigh Poole has woven her efforts in internationalization with diversity-related efforts. She has been active in recruiting students from underrepresented populations for study abroad, educating international students about U.S. cultural, ethnic, and religious, diversity; and increasing the inclusion of students with disabilities in international activities. She has forged important linkages and collaborations between Office of International Education and the African American Cultural Center, the LGBT Resource Center, and the office of Multicultural Students and Programs.
Dr. Don Rubin - Richard Reiff Internationalization Award
The Reiff Award is given in honor of Dr. Richard Reiff, former executive director of the Office of International Education at the University System of Georgia, former chair of the international committee of the University System of Georgia, and past president of NAFSA: Association of International Educators. The award honors a tenured or tenure-track faculty member who has made major contributions to the overall internationalization of the University of Georgia.
Don Rubin is professor emeritus of Communication Studies, Language and Literacy Education, and Linguistics and is currently a research scientist at the Center for Health and Risk Communication. Over his career at UGA, Don Rubin taught graduate and undergraduate courses in intercultural communication and in English as an Additional Language. He directed the program in instructional communication for international teaching assistants. One thread of Rubin's research program examines attitudinal responses of native speakers of English to non-native speakers, including US students' stereotypes and comprehension of international instructors. Over the past decade, Don Rubin has been engaged in one of the most ambitious and rigorous studies to date of learning outcomes accruing from education abroad. This study, in collaboration with Rick Sutton (formerly of the USG) is known as GLOSSARI: the Georgia Learning of Students Studying Abroad Initiative. It is widely known and cited by international educators and policy makers. Carola McGiffert, a senior staffer who was in charge of Obama's 100,000 Strong initiative, in speaking of the GLOSSARI initiative recently referred to it at the best study to date that she knew of that tracks the impact of study abroad, particularly with regard to completion and GPA. Through the foundation set by Dr. Rubin, UGA has the potential to be a leader not just in the number of students studying abroad but the understanding and measurement of the learning that takes place on study abroad.
Paula Mellom - Costa Rica Adelente Award
Paula J. Mellom is an Assistant Research Scientist for the Center for Latino Achievement and Success in Education (CLASE). As such, she is responsible for seeking funding for CLASE's array of programs as well as researching their impacts.
In addition, Dr. Mellom takes the lead on CLASE's "SALSA" program, a summer science enrichment course for ELL high-school students, and "Content and Culture in Latin America", an international professional development experience for in-service teachers from Georgia. Since 2006, Dr. Mellom has led UGA Costa Rica's Language and Culture Service Learning study abroad course. Dr. Mellom earned her Ph.D. in linguistics from the University of Georgia and her research interests include code-switching in the classroom and the ways in which globalization and issues of identity construction impact language acquisition and use.
Scott Belville - Dedicato a Cortona Award
Professor Scott Belville is a prolific artist with a distinguished career both as a painter and as a teacher. He has exhibited his works in gallery and museum venues form Atlanta to New York, Chicago, Washington D.C. and regionally across the southeast. His art works have garnered numerous grants and awards including; two NEA Individual Artists Grants and a Ford Foundation Grant among others. Scott's paintings are included in many important public and private collections; The Georgia Museum of Art, The Walker Art Center, The Joseph Hirshhorn Museum, The Greenville County Museum of Art, The Chase Manhattan Bank to name a few.
At the University, he has received research grants from the Willson Center, a Study in a Second Discipline Grant from the Office of the Vice President of Academic Affairs and a Lothar Tresp Outstanding Teaching Honors Professor Award.
Scott's connection to the Cortona Program is deep and nearly as ancient as the program itself. He first participated on the program in 1972-(during the Etruscan Period), and then again in 1974, when and where he met his future wife and artist- Judy Voss Jones. In 1975 Scott became an "Italian Godfather" for a "Cortona Family" and in time secured a position at The University of Georgia's Lamar Dodd School of Art, allowing him to visit and teach in Cortona on numerous occasions under the guise as a "University Professor".
In 2004 Scott established the Judy Voss Jones Cortona Art Scholarship in honor and memory of his wife, with the hope of encouraging more graduate student participation in the program. He has continued to passionately support this and other scholarships for this unique Art Study Abroad Experience.
Bob McGee - Friend of UGA Oxford Award
Bob McGee, with more than 28 years of higher education experience, serves as the associate controller responsible for payroll and global business transactions.
McGee began his career in the public utility industry and also worked in the oil and gas industry prior to joining Louisiana State University as the manager of general accounting in 1984. He was later selected to head LSU's Office of Grants and Contracts and moved to the University of Georgia in 1991 in a similar role.

4. Picking a researcher - Completed
5. Committee consideration - Completed
6. Back to the council - Completed
7. Consideration by the full conference - Completed
8. Implementation - Current
The Administrative Conference is undertaking a study of the GPRA Modernization Act. The goal of the project is to specifically examine the Act's requirements for cross-agency collaboration; identify existing constraints (real or perceived) to collaboration (with a particular focus on legal constraints); highlight tools available to help agencies collaborate; and recommend potential new (or enhanced) avenues of collaboration.
The study will: Identify and examine existing constraints (real or perceived) to collaboration on, and implementation of, Cross Agency Priority (CAP) Goals by working with the Office of Performance and Personnel Management (OPPM), as well as other federal agencies; focus specifically on legal constraints and accordingly, identify, examine and/or consider such possible constraints; and highlight existing tools and identify new or enhanced tools agencies may use to improve cross-agency collaboration on CAP Goals and prevent constraints (particularly legal constraints) from unduly inhibiting effective collaboration.
Jane Fountain, Professor of Political Science and Public Policy at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, is the project consultant.

How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Non-Working WiFi tozehnder.comSubmitted by jennita Jul 22 2013 in Events 1 Comment Discuss (1) |
MozCon hit Seattle this July. The leading online marketing conference was a blast, 3 days packed with inspiring talks about the future of digital marketing and great discussions with peers. Not only did I bring back two notebooks full of insights & thoughts, but also two main take aways: As the online marketing industry is getting more and more complex, the need for a strong brand and holistic view on (online) marketing is gaining in importance, big time.
Jennifer Sable Lopez @jennita Mod
This weekend I attended a Community Leadership Conference and I took notes on a notepad. I absolutely loved it! I paid attention more, I was part of discussions, and learned a ton.
I know the wifi being down was definitely an overall negative at MozCon but I do love to hear that people got great value without it. :)

Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber's career is a testament to the power of the Internet and Bieber fever. The pop star, who taught himself to play piano, trumpet and guitar, was raised by single mom who chauffeured him to talent shows and uploaded performance videos on YouTube. It was these covers of Chris Brown, Michael Jackson and Ne-Yo (plus his swoopy hairstyle, adorable baby face and made-for-the-stage presence) that quickly turned him into a viral sensation and caught the attention of manager Scooter Braun and Usher, who signed Bieber to Island Def Jam. His first album, 2009's My World, debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard charts and spawned hit singles "One Time" and "One Less Lonely Girl." His subsequent records and singles (My World 2.0, Believe, "U Smile," "Baby," "Boyfriend," "As Long As You Love Me" and Under The Mistletoe) dominated charts as well. Backed by legions of Beliebers, he toured with Taylor Swift, collaborated with Drake and Nikki Minaj, sung at the White House, was the subject of the documentary Never Say Never and collected too many awards to list (MTV VMAs, American Music Awards, Junos, etc.). At just 18 in 2012, he became the first person to reach 3 billion YouTube views. Millions of hearts broke in 2011 when photos of him kissing Selena Gomez in St. Lucia surfaced. Breakup rumors are constant especially after a woman claimed he fathered her child. (DNA tests proved he hadn't.) In late 2012, things supposedly ended but the twosome never officially confirmed and their PDA-filled outings continued.

Chinese Company Bids $450bn for Exxon
Status: HoaxI find this very strange. A Chinese company, King Win Laurel, has filed paperwork with the SEC indicating that it's planning to make a bid to buy oil giant Exxon for $450bn. But analysts are dismissing the bid as a prank, since King Win Laurel doesn't have the kind of money necessary to make good on such an offer. Apparently King Win Laurel has a history of making hoax bids. Last year, for instance, it made a fake bid to buy Telstra. It also tried to buy a New Zealand firm called Restaurant Brands, but that offer was rejected by local regulators. So what we have here is a Chinese firm that simply likes making fake offers to buy companies. I have no idea what it's possible motivation could be.
