A roof for the bottom of the pyramid
Ashoka's unique affordable housing model, which brings together the private sector and NGOs, is expanding its footprint.
Tulsi, a vegetable vendor, looks forward to moving into her first pucca home - a 200-odd square feet flat in the DBS Umang project on the outskirts of Ahmedabad. Ashoka's Hybrid Value Chain (HVC) model brings together the private sector and NGOs in a relationship that transcends the usual donor-recipient relationship. This model currently operates in five states: Gujarat, UP (Ghaziabad), Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Madhya Pradesh and has facilitated as many as 12, 000 affordable housing units.
"In addition, the concept of HVC entrepreneurs who would help scale this model and advance its reach pan-India has been introduced, as has a financial inclusion platform - Infiniti, which helps financiers with data in the pre-approval stage. On the anvil is India's first Affordable Housing Standard and TUV Rheinland is a partner in the certification process. Parameters that include community involvement will determine the rating and help potential buyers make informed decisions, " explains Vishnu Swaminathan.
SAATH, an NGO, has been closely involved in the DBS Umang project. "Involvement begins from carrying out market to understand needs, which could be something as basic as having loft space and conveying the same to the developers. This helps in sale of the affordable housing units, " explains Rajesh Joshi, founder of SAATH.
SAATH's division Grih Pravesh educates potential buyers on various aspects, vets whether they are eligible for housing loans (EMI rates and the potential buyer's income flows and ability to service loans are factored), helps them prepare a 'file' for finance companies as they generally lack conventional evidence such as salary slips and finally links them with builders and finance companies. Assistance is also given in obtaining PAN numbers or filing tax returns.
While home finance continues to be a challenge for such potential buyers, an emerging breed of finance companies caters to their unique needs. For instance, Aadhar Housing Finance (in which International Finance Corporation holds 20 per cent equity) was set up specifically to cater to this segment of buyers.
Harshil Mehta, CEO, Aadhar Housing Finance (AHFL), appreciates the work done by NGOs. "They have good customer insight and enable financial inclusion. AHFL staff also carries out field visits and through discussions arrives at appraised income, " adds Mehta.
Based on its pilot experience with the Dinesh Nagar Project, SBI became the first nationalised bank to modify its scoring methodology (based on which loan applications are accepted or rejected). "The erstwhile high scoring parameter relating to net worth - in terms of owning jewellery, investments etc was abolished and the high weightage given for income above Rs 2 lakh was diluted (earlier if a person earned less than Rs 2 lakh per annum, he got a zero score) to name a few of the relaxations in methodology, " says Raghav Garg. To widen banking loan access he also suggests a mandatory quota for nationalised banks for small housing loans, with the guarantee fund de-risking such loans.
As one of the first few HVC entrepreneurs, Bangalore-based Abhay Kanjikar is a busy man, bringing all stakeholders on a common platform. For his efforts, the developer pays him a commission of 1 per cent of the project revenue, but his biggest satisfaction is in the blessing he gets from those who now own their affordable dream home.

Título: | Changes in the flesh of cooked farmed salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) with previous storage in slurry ice (-1.5 degrees C) |
Autor: | Rodríguez, Alicia; Carriles, Nicolás; Cruz, José M.; Aubourg, Santiago P. |
Resumen: | Whole, farmed Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were sacrificed in slurry ice (-1.5 degrees C) then stored in this medium for further processing after 0, 5 and 9 days. They were cooked whole and the flesh was evaluated by sensory, physical and chemical techniques to establish if significant changes had occurred as a result of the storage period. Initial samples from harvest were also evaluated for comparison. There was evidence of increases in trimethylamine, lipid hydrolysis, lipid oxidation (anisidine and thiobarbituric acid values) and interaction compound formation (fluorescence and browning measurements). The fish structure became more breakable with longer storage but there were no changes in sensory assessments for rancid and putrid odours, so that scores were less than 0.5 on a 11-point scale. From the present results, primary and secondary lipid oxidation development and further interaction compound formation appear to be the main measurable indicators of quality changes in cooked Coho salmon. However, and according to sensory appreciation, slurry ice has shown to be a suitable medium for previous storage of Coho salmon for periods of up to 9 days. |

Tells the tale of Jack Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff. Both young men have taken to bending the truth in order to add excitement to their lives. Jack has invented an imaginary brother, Ernest, whom he uses as an excuse to escape from his dull home in the country and frolic in town. Algernon uses a similar technique, only in reverse: His imaginary friend, Bunbury, provides a convenient and frequent method of taking adventures in the country. However, their deceptions eventually cross paths, resulting in a series of crises that threaten to spoil their romantic pursuits; Jack of his love Gwendolen Fairfax, and Algernon of his belle Cecily Cardew.

Yes you did and then you said the bolded. You said that the idea could happen here. In response to people posting about how this event was a gov't plot.
Printable View
I said exactly what I meant ;). Of course Obama didn't kill children to try and outlaw guns, that is the whacko part... I do not think it is whacko to look to the past, present and future and see that our government may at sometime try and take the guns away from the people... Do you think that our government may at sometime in the future want to disarm the populous? if not.. what makes us so different from all the other countries where it has happened?
Well, I never say never but to be honest, I don't think that way. I take things as they come. I don't think because we want safety that it means it is the government trying to run us. Maybe it could be. I'm just not going to live that way.
THE AR-15: THE GUN LIBERALS LOVE TO HATEQuote:
Those who would ban what they like to call assault weapons like to portray them as automatic weapons designed for use on the battlefield simply because they look cosmetically like their military counterparts. In fact, they are semi-automatic firearms that are designed and built not for the military, but for the civilian market and function differently than their military counterparts. Were our soldiers outfitted with ARs, they would be at the mercy of every army in the world.
The more than three million Americans who currently own AR-15s must wonder if any of these people know what they're talking about. These guns are not cheap, but they have been the best-selling long arm in this country for some years. Those three million people didn't buy have purchased them just to look at or because they are planning to use them to kill their fellow citizens.
The National Shooting Sports Foundation has surveyed the purchasers of AR-15s. The AR-15 is the most commonly used rifle for marksmanship training and competition. Nearly 90% of those who own an AR-15 use it for recreational target shooting; 51% of AR owners are members of shooting clubs and visit the range regularly. The typical AR owner is not a crazed teenage psychopath, but a 35+ year old, married and has some college education.
The popularity of the AR can be traced in part to the fact that it is a semi-automatic version of the rifle used by the men and women of the military. Nearly half of AR owners are veterans, law enforcement officers, or both. It is a configuration they are familiar with and enjoy shooting. My daughter, for example, served two tours in Iraq, one in Afghanistan, and only owns one gun — an AR.
AR 15s are good for hunting. Some buy an AR for home defense and about six percent of buyers are either collectors or varmint hunters. The standard AR is illegal in most states for deer and big game hunting because it is not considered powerful enough to reliably put down deer-sized or larger game, but is used for coyote, wolf and feral pig hunting in many states.
So the evidence tells us that although Sen. Feinstein and her friends may not know it, millions of Americans buy these guns because they like to shoot them and use them lawfully. The fact that a half dozen out of more than three million have been misused after illegally falling into the hands of crazed killers does not seem to be a reason to ban the popular gun according to most Americans asked in a recent USA Today poll.
These guns are not the weapon of choice for this nation's criminals or killers. Indeed, the FBI found that in 2010, the last year for which data is available, more people were beaten to death than killed with all long guns including these so-called assault weapons.
It is true that the Supreme Court has left the door open for "reasonable" restrictions on firearms sales. There is good reason, for example, to keep guns out of the hands of felons, those who have been adjudicated as mentally incompetent, or unsupervised children. However there is no evidence whatever to suggest that a ban on the AR 15 or other semi-automatic firearms can be constitutionally justified just so politicians can say they have done something to satisfy the natural public desire act in the face of a tragedy like Newtown. A renewal of a juiced up version of the old Clinton "assault weapons" ban would no doubt make Sen. Feinstein and her friends feel good and deny millions of law abiding Americans the right to own and enjoy a gun protected by the Second Amendment,, but would do absolutely nothing to prevent future tragedies.
That is a valid point of view. I do not think it is crazy to think the government might, and protect ourselves form encroaching laws into legal gun ownership. Either way is an "ok" way to live. Heck even thinking the government will and not owning guns because you are a pacifist I understand. But it is America and we shouldn't be surprised that people want to keep their gun rights, and especially due to the 2nd amendment (ability to form a militia). And I think those people are far from whacko :)
Totally unrelated, but can I just say I can't believe this is almost 50 pages?
I never said keeping gun rights wasn't a good thing. I said ideally no one would want or need guns in my little utopia. I also said we need more restrictions on what is manufactured and what we have access to. That's it. The 2nd amendment says we have the right to form a militia. It says nothing about assault weapons.
As an aside, I was just reading my local news and thought I would point out something interesting. There was a gun show here today. Thousands showed up and the wait to get in was over 2 hours long. The talk of banning certain weapons here as had the exact opposite effect that was wanted. DH went with his brother to a gun shop a last week. The gun shop owner told DH that he has sold more guns in the last few weeks than he has in the last 3 years combined.
Oh what a beautiful country we live in when the response to such a horrid event equals rushing out to buy more weapons.
(Yep, think I've already said that once...it just amazes me.)
Locally, near the school in CT...they are stopping gun shows. I think that is awesome. No need of them.
I think no one would need or want guns in most people's utopia. :) I would have to disagree with you about the 2nd amendment , and as proof I will leave you with some quotes from the signers -
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."
~George Washington
"The highest number to which, according to the best computation, a standing army can be carried in any country, does not exceed one hundredth part of the whole number of souls; or one twenty-fifth part of the number able to bear arms. This proportion would not yield, in the United States, an army of more than twenty-five or thirty thousand men. To these would be opposed a militia amounting to near half a million of citizens with arms in their hands, officered by men chosen from among themselves, fighting for their common liberties, and united and conducted by governments possessing their affections and confidence. It may well be doubted, whether a militia thus circumstanced could ever be conquered by such a proportion of regular troops."
~James Madison
"The right of the people to keep and bear…arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country…"
~James Madison
"This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it or their revolutionary right to dismember it or overthrow it."
~Abraham Lincoln
--- Not to mention other notables like Thomas Paine, or Patrick Henry and John Adams who could not or did not attend...

Anyone have any experience with Rauchbier?...we currently are adept at making a Czech style lager, & wanted to experiment in this direction?...any nuggets of wisdom will be greatly appreciated!
Never can use enough Rauchmalt!!! doing a 100% one when I free up room in the fermentor chamber
Rauchbier is great, but there are lots of different variations - some use only 15% rauchmalt, others go up to 100%. It is not for everyone though - some people hate it. But it ages really well, and after a year in the bottle it tastes velvety smokey. I have a batch on deck right now - has about 35% rauchmalt.
From reading about it basically I follow these guides: 10% will add a hint of smoke 20% will add a moderate amount, you can taste it 30% you can taste smoke, smell smoke, and basically it covers everything else except for very strong flavors There are two types of smoked malt available, peat smoked and wyermanns beach smoked malt. You only want to use wyermanns for this beer. Peat smoke is very heavy. I recently made a smoked heff and I only added 10% and couldn't really taste it but others could. I would think starting off with a light flavored beer and doing like, 20% of the bill as smoke would be a good starting point?
They've recently come out with a 3rd smoked malt...Briess Cherrywood Smoked Malt. I used it in a smoked rye & it gave it a sweeter subtle smoke character. The main thing to note is to make sure you're getting fresh grain if you're making a smoked beer of any kind. I used more cherrywood smoked malt than a lot of recipes I researched & mine came out very subtle. Other people who used less said they got an intense smoke character. The only explanation I can think of for this is that mine was sitting for awhile on a shelf somewhere.
never mind
My last brew was 98% Weyermann Smoked, 2% Weyermann Carafa II Special dehusked. I love it, but it is only about half as smokey as Schlenkerla Marzen.
Kaiser Ridge Brewing ------------------------- Bottle Conditioning: SN Celebration Clone Bottle Conditioning: CoffeeDryStout Bottle Conditioning: Irish Red Ale Bottle in the refer: German IPA Bottle in the refer: German Dry Stout Bottle in the refer: Wai`anae SummerAle Ale Bottled in the refer: GermanImperialStout
Sorta repeating everyone, but... If you like Schlenkerla Marzen, just go 100% smoked malt. Trust me on this. (BTW, to really get close, you need to smoke your own malt, preferably Munich, and use it 100% in your mash). If you want a sweeter Bacon'y flavor, try using the Briess Cherrywood malt. Quite different from Weyermann Beechwood malt. I've smoked ales, but for a good smokebeer you need to use a lager yeast, ferment cold, and age at cold temps for a while.

All three had been shot.Police later recovered six weapons and a sizable cache of ammunition from that home and another at which Sesler had been known to stay, Waller County Sheriff Glenn Smith said.While investigators have yet to examine computers seized from Sesler's home and car or writings that could shed light on his motives, Rehack and Smith said the man had entertained thoughts of committing a mass shooting similar to the 1999 attack at Columbine High School in Colorado that left 13 people dead.Rehack said Sesler told investigators during eight hours of questioning that he had studied mass shootings and serial killers "to the point of grading their work."He also acknowledged killing animals, including family pets, over the years, shooting at vacant buildings and schools in the middle of the night and setting fires, Rehack said.Smith said it appeared Sesler was "building himself up" for an attack. He may have been planning something for three or four years, the sheriff added.The law enforcement officials said they do not have any specific evidence that anyone plotted with Sesler regarding a specific attack, but vowed they would continue their investigation for as long as it takes to make sure."Because if we've got somebody else out there that's thinking along the lines of what we've seen the last two days that he thinks like, we need to know who it is," Smith said.School officials said in a statement that they had been told of no evidence of a safety threat at district schools, but planned to increase police presence throughout the district as a precaution.Why Sesler killed his family remains unclear. Smith said some conflict had been building between Sesler and his father, but added that Sesler changed his explanation for the killings several times during the interrogation. The sheriff declined to offer other specifics."He cried some during the admission of what he'd done," Smith said.More from justicePetco employee fired after video shows rough groomingFight for handicapped spot sends 71-year-old to hospitalBourdain: Nemtsov believed notoriety would protect himPowered by Livefyre

An iconic figure in the history of rock and pop culture (inducted not once but twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame), Young has written his eagerly awaited memoir and offers a kaleidoscopic view of his personal life and musical career. |
From the Publisher:
A New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and USA Today bestseller. For the first time, legendary singer, songwriter, and guitarist Neil Young offers a kaleidoscopic view of his personal life and musical creativity. He tells of his childhood in Ontario, where his father instilled in him a love for the written word; his first brush with mortality when he contracted polio at the age of five; struggling to pay rent during his early days with the Squires; traveling the Canadian prairies in Mort, his 1948 Buick hearse; performing in a remote town as a polar bear prowled beneath the floorboards; leaving Canada on a whim in 1966 to pursue his musical dreams in the pot-filled boulevards and communal canyons of Los Angeles; the brief but influential life of Buffalo Springfield, which formed almost immediately after his arrival in California. He recounts their rapid rise to fame and ultimate break-up; going solo and overcoming his fear of singing alone; forming Crazy Horse and writing ?Cinnamon Girl,? ?Cowgirl in the Sand,? and ?Down by the River? in one day while sick with the flu; joining Crosby, Stills & Nash, recording the landmark CSNY album, Déjà vu, and writing the song, ?Ohio;? life at his secluded ranch in the redwoods of Northern California and the pot-filled jam sessions there; falling in love with his wife, Pegi, and the birth of his three children; and finally, finding the contemplative paradise of Hawaii. Astoundingly candid, witty, and as uncompromising and true as his music, Waging Heavy Peace is Neil Young?s journey as only he can tell it. |

Looking for a Second Opinion Before an Upgrade.

Since this is a big refresh for it I thought I'd lay out the plan here and see if there are any comments/recommendations before I pull the trigger since I'll be living with this as my main system for more 3 years. Its main purpose will be photo/design work and maybe video in the future when I pick up a D800.
Current specs are a Xeon "Bloomfield" W3540, 12GB of ECC RAM, NVIDIA FX580 Quadro, and the bottleneck is a 7,200 RPM 500GB drive.
I'm going to keep the processor since it looks like it would be 1,000+ to only get 20-30% increase in speed.
The graphics card I want to swap out with a consumer card, the NVIDIA GTX 660 since I want to go with 3 and sometimes 4 monitors. (The Quadro's are a lot more expensive and I don't think there's much benefit with my work)
HD is going for an SSD, probably around 250GB.
And the RAM I'm on the fence about but I'm guessing when I move to 32MP images having 24 GB of it will be a big help.
What kind of box is it?
That CPU performance is roughly equivalent to a Core i7 940. That's a dated processor design now (technology changes fast).
A newer Ivy Bridge CPU like a Core i7 3770 (a $300 CPU) is almost twice as fast as that Xeon model you have now.
Or, you could move into an even faster 6 Core Sandy Bridge E model like the Core i7 3930K (or equivalent Xeon processor like the E5-1650) for more.
Is it a name brand box, or a custom box? You'd need a Motherboard Swap to take advantage of a new CPU. Or you could just buy a new box instead.
Do you really need a Xeon and ECC memory? If not, a consumer grade CPU with equivalent performance using non ECC memory is a lot less money, and today's CPU designs are much faster than your older W3540 (and you could get a lot of non ECC memory for very little money now, too).
Plus newer Motherboards are typically equipped with faster SATA III (6Gbps) ports to take better advantage of the speed newer SSDs are capable of achieving (whereas most older boards are using slower SATA II ports)
-- hide signature --JimC
It's a Dell T3500 Workstation so the motherboard is proprietary (there are Xeons that are much faster that fit it, but they're the ones over 1k). But trust me I know all too well about the speed coming from these new processors. One of the main reasons I'm doing this is my ~400 dollar Dell refurb laptop currently is about on par where they trade off on top spots for each spec, and the CPU is slightly faster (i7-2670QM).
What you're suggesting would be basically building a box from scratch and if I did that I'd leave the Dell alone as a backup and buy a new case/PSU. But thanks for the post since I haven't thought about how close at least in parts I am to that and it would be another good upgrade path in the future. The issue is just cash on hand since I'm planning to also get a new 24" IPS monitor, a larger Wacom tablet, and a D800.

Welcome to the hilarious, strange, elegiac, outrageous world of David Sedaris. In Naked, Sedaris turns the mania for memoir on its ear, mining the exceedingly rich terrain of his life, his family, and his unique worldview-a sensibility at once take-no-prisoners sharp and deeply charitable. A tart-tongued mother does dead-on imitations of her young son's nervous tics, to the great amusement of his teachers; a stint of Kerouackian wandering is undertaken (of course ) with a quadriplegic companion; a family gathers for a wedding in the face of imminent death. Through it all is Sedaris's unmistakable voice, without doubt one of the freshest in American writing.
About the Author
David Sedaris is a playwright and a regular commentator for National Public Radio. He is also the author of the bestselling "Barrel Fever", "Naked", "Holidays on Ice", "Dress Your Family in Corduroy and" "Denim", "When You Are Engulfed in Flames", and "Me Talk Pretty One Day". He travels extensively though Europe and the United States on lecture tours and lives in France.

This shot came on a rest day towards the end of our trip around Málaga, Spain. Not really planning to climb, we had spent our day exploring the treacherous and eroded via ferata known as El Camino del Rey (pictured here) that traverses the gorge above the town of El Chorro.
On our way back from the Camino we were tantalized by the long, aesthetic crack systems lining the wall opposite our path. My friends Blake and Scott braved a harsh wind and traversed over to explore what turned out to be a stellar crack system shooting straight up from the roaring gorge below.

Bioconductor version: Release (3.0)
This R/Bioconductor package provides an interface between HDF5 and R. HDF5's main features are the ability to store and access very large and/or complex datasets and a wide variety of metadata on mass storage (disk) through a completely portable file format. The rhdf5 package is thus suited for the exchange of large and/or complex datasets between R and other software package, and for letting R applications work on datasets that are larger than the available RAM.

text: This Ilex is going back. The EBAY seller maintains he has a no-return policy, so I bullied him. It's going back. Sellers can't leave bad feedback these days, so he can't play the feedback-revenge game. That nick gleams like a diamond when the light hits it. And I plan to use it at f/32 a lot. At that stop, about the only glass there is left is that nick. No way.

It's hard not to love that Lenny Dykstra once kicked ass for the Philadelphia Phillies before he went on to write a column for TheStreet.com that cost almost $1,000 per year to read, owned Wayne Gretzky's house, and was hailed as an investment guru, just before HBO and ESPN revealed what a spectacular phony he really was.
Slide into homeplate for me, ESPN:
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Cynthia Ulfig sentenced Dykstra after refusing to allow him to withdraw his plea and said the scam to lease high-end automobiles from dealerships by providing fraudulent information and claiming credit through a phony business showed sophistication and extensive planning.
"He obviously didn't have the money to get the vehicles," Ulfig said. "His conduct was indeed criminal."
Dykstra, 49, has had a series of recent legal troubles and the prison sentence is part of a post-career downward spiral for the stocky slugger known as "Nails" that has included a stint at a sober living facility.
In a rambling and impassioned plea for probation, Dykstra said he has tried to make amends for his past transgressions and said he would be cleared of any wrongdoing had his motion to withdraw his plea been granted.
"I'm doing everything in my power to be a better person," he said.
Still, it's tough not to feel at least a bit sorry for the guy. He used to be ripped, and now he looks a little bit like Val Kilmer. Not Top Gun Val, but more like MacGruber Val.

is ursodiol a statinPosted by rmar My husband has been taking Ursodiol for a year and a half now to treat his PSC, Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis and now has developed extreme muscle loss in his quads and forearms and is undergoing more testing to see if he has Inclusion Body Myositis. I am wondering if he actually has a toxic myopathy due to the Ursodiol that he is taking. Can Ursodiol have the same effect as a statin? He also does not have his gall bladder, could his body not be processing it correctly? |
Ursoidol is a synthesized version of the body's own chemical that keeps bile from forming stones. It is not "processed" by the liver and is usually well tolerated. It is not related to "statins" and is not associated with muscular toxicity like the statins are. PSC is tough on the body, and it is likely that your husband is not as active as he once was. Disuse atrophy of the major muscles would not be out of the realm of possibility. Also, depending on what other medications he is taking, there could be some additive problems (such as prednisone or related compounds).

Corinthians rejects Kaka link
Corinthians has dismissed speculation that the club want to bring Real Madrid playmaker Kaka back to Brazil.
Kaka has struggled to make a sustained impact at Real since his 2009 move from AC Milan and has been linked with a return to Brazil this summer.
Reports in Spain claimed that Corinthians were interested in signing the former Sao Paulo youngster, but club director Duilio Monteiro Alves has brushed off the rumors.
"There is nothing, it's just speculation," Monteiro Alves told Gazeta Press.
"I don't know where that story came from, but it didn't start at Corinthians.
"He is an excellent player, no doubt about that, but we haven't even talked about him."
Kaka's agent Tadeu Cruz also ruled out a move to Corinthians for the 31-year-old, telling Lancenet: "No chance, that's not true."
