Add 3 cups of water, salt, dry amla, cardamom, bay leaf, cloves and cinnamon. Close lid and keep the flame on high till the pressure builds up, after that you can reduce the flame to low and cook for another 20-25 minutes.
Take a heavy bottom kadhai and heat 2 tbsp oil. Add sugar and when it leaves red color, add onions and fry till they become light brown. Add ginger-garlic-chilly paste. Stir fry for a minute. Add coriander and red chilly powder and stir fry for a second.

American Apparel T-shirts are made with 100% fine jersey cotton combed for softness and comfort. (Athletic Grey and Athletic Blue contain 50% polyester / 25% cotton / 25% rayon)
I found a little book recently all about Pierre-Joseph Redouté, who was a watercolour artist around the turn of the nineteenth century. He was best known for his contributions to botanical illustration. This ballpoint pen drawing is my tribute to a great painter and his work.
Can I ask what people think about the t-shirt and hoody designs? Do you think I should make the drawing bigger, smaller, or leave it as is? Feedback would be hugely appreciated!

Technology Sector Will Lead Economic Recovery, Survey Says
A survey of 130 top-level software and hardware technology executives say their industry will lead the country out of the current economy, with eight out of 10 executives expecting business conditions in the technology sector to improve in 2010.
A survey of 130 CEO and other C-level hardware and software company executives conducted by audit, tax and advisory firm KPMG found the respondents believe that the technology sector will recover from the current economic crisis substantially more quickly than the U.S. economy, with senior business leaders expecting improved revenue and profitability in 2010 and about half seeing an improved job picture.The survey also asked the executives to indicate if their strategic focus was on cost cutting or investing for long-term growth. The results show that most technology executives are focused on building the business with 69 percent indicating they are placing emphasis on long-term growth versus 31 percent who said they are focused on cost cutting. When asked how they responded to the economic downturn in the past year, the most frequently cited action was reducing headcount (68 percent). Only 14 percent of respondents said they are planning or considering further reductions in 2010. The survey found technology executives are actually cautiously optimistic about the industry employment picture in 2010: Forty-nine percent said they expect it to be better.
When asked to identify the biggest challenges they currently face in dealing with the economic downturn, the executives most frequently said finding new sources of revenue (66 percent), managing costs and restoring business confidence (42 percent each), and adjusting to changing customer demand (37 percent). Survey respondents also identified the top three triggers they think will spur an economic recovery, with 42 percent of executives citing improved business confidence, 41 percent listing improved consumer confidence, and 32 percent naming an improved job market. Increased consumer spending was fourth (30 percent) but was most frequently cited by hardware technology company executives (39 percent). The three triggers cited least frequently were effective regulation (six percent), government stimulus spending (five percent) and the government bailouts (four percent).

Feb. 9, 2015 TimMcElroy | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: TOC follow up GREAT WEEK OF SOFTBALL Sure, there were a couple of glitches with the banquet, but I have never tried hosting a dinner for 2,100 people. Until I try pulling something of that size off, I won't say not a negative word about it. Those in attendance heard from some truly inspirational people who have given so much for this country, and battle on. If my meal was delayed a few minutes, I can look past that with ease. THANK YOU SSUSA, THANK YOU WOUNDED WARRIORS, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER SERVED. Tim |

The actual brackets for S2 were sent back to Sacramento. Dave is working overtime to put PHX schedules together right now, but I'm sure they will get posted soon enough. Bernie- my apologies for drawing a blank on the WC Thunder finish. Too many things happening at once yesterday, I guess. Congrats on a solid weekend. |
Nov. 10, 2014 TimMcElroy | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Winter National Results A good part of the of Sunday schedule was rained out.

Oct. 30, 2014 TimMcElroy | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Pitching I see two potentially different scenarios here: 1) If the pitcher had both feet outside of the pitcher's box before beginning his wind-up / delivery, we have "NO PITCH" The umpire should immediately vocalize this call and put both arms in the air killing any subsequent action. Effectively, a ball was pitched during the suspension of play. (BruceAZ, if this is what your umpire witnessed in LV then it was the correct call). 2) If the pitcher began his wind-up / delivery with at least some portion of one foot inside the pitcher's box and ended with nothing in the box when the ball left his hand, then we have an "ILLEGAL PITCH" The umpire should immediately vocalize this call and lift / extend his left arm out to the side (parallel to the ground). If a batter swings at an illegal pitch, then the result of the play stands. |

Sept. 9, 2014 TimMcElroy | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Baserunner Retreating JackZ_SLC Section 8.3 of the SSUSA rulebook refers to the BATTER-RUNNER, which is different than a RUNNER. BATTER-RUNNER is one that has completed his turn at bat, but has not yet been put out or reached first. At the moment the BATTER-RUNNER reaches 1st base he becomes a RUNNER. This is how the rule WAS PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN (understanding the definition of Batter-Runner, it was technically correct) BATTER-RUNNER IS OUT H. When he moves back toward any base to avoid or delay a tag by a fielder. The ball is dead, the batter-runner is out and all runners return to the base occupied at the time of the pitch. HOWEVER, the rulebook was cleaned up at the 2013 convention to reduce confusion on this point. The amended rule reads as follows: 8.3 BATTER-RUNNER IS OUT H. When he moves backward toward home plate prior to reaching first base to avoid or delay a tag by a fielder. The ball is dead, the batter-runner is out and all runners return to the base occupied at the time of the pitch. ==================================================================== In the original post by OmahaChuck, the umpire incorrectly called the runner from 2nd out. We should have had the batter-runner out at 1st base, and the runner who began the play on 1st now safe at 2nd base. Hope this helps. |

June 28, 2014 TimMcElroy | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: over throw at first. Hey Birdie- In Senior Softball-USA (SSUSA, and most other organizations (ASA, ISA, NSA) the runner in your scenario would be awarded 2 bases from the last base achieved (he had 1st, and now gets 2nd & 3rd). The rules in USSSA play would give the runner the base that he must retouch (1st) plus one additional base (2nd). You are playing in Salem, VA this weekend... That park plays host to a number of USSSA tournaments during the year. If the ISSA / ISF tournament is using "local" umpires this weekend, this could be the source of your confusion.

June 4, 2014 TimMcElroy | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Check in I see a few different questions here- this is my take. 1) When should players check in? All players SHOULD check-in by showing their ID to the site director prior to taking the field in any SSUSA tournament. Sometimes, there are multiple teams checking in at one time and the lines are long. In that circumstance, a site director may approve a team to check in after their first game. sidenote: Speeding up the check-in process is why SSUSA asks that teams show up early for their first game, and check in as a team. For the purposes of discussion- 7:56am arrival, with an 8:00am start time is not considered "early" 2) Does SSUSA hold up games while a double rostered player finishes up a game with his "other" team? No. Managers are responsible for having the required number of players present at game time (technically, 30 minutes prior to scheduled start time). Games should not be held up on a field while a team waits for Sammy Superstar to arrive from another field. If you must- start the game and have Sammy enter as a substitute. OR, have Sammy be substituted out of his other game so that he can be a starter for this game. |

Hello! I am having problems with extracting compressed files made (by myslef) with WinZip version 11. I get the "Unsupported compression method..." message. What am I doing wrong? ( categories: )
Hey,I actually solved my own opps. What happened is that I made a compressed file with WinZip, and tried to open it with 7zip. However I went to the 7zip home page and out that 7zip does not support AES. So, I think I'm good to go now. Thanks. Marcus |

Conference to Focus on Investing in Water Industry
On Nov. 15 in New York, The Wall Street Transcript (TWST) will offer its second water industry conference, "Maximizing Returns on Invested Capital in the Water Industry."
This conference will delve into issues relating to boosting allowed regulatory returns such as single tariff pricing, incentive based pricing and structured competition. It will provide insight into achieving the optimum capital structure and provide pointers on lining up the appropriate sources of capital. Further, this conference will examine how water companies can derive revenues from non-traditional sources.
David Wanetick, managing director of TWST, said, "We are delighted that renowned authorities from General Electric, Southwest Water Company, United Water, the Suffolk County Water Authority, New Jersey Environment Infrastructure Trust, and Badger Meter will share their insight into pressing regulatory and financial issues. The conference is turning into a can't miss event for financial executives working in or working with the water industry."
Gateway Reports, an affiliate of TWST, will also release its report on the State of the Water Industry at the conference. This report will provide thoroughly researched insights into trends in building out the water infrastructure, desalinization, purification technologies as well as developments in bottled water. (The report will sell for $175, but is free to conference participants.)
TWST's most recent water industry conference was held in New York City in June and featured the CEOs and CFOs of most of the publicly-traded water companies in the U.S. as well as the senior most executives from the water industry trade associations. The June conference attracted about 150 attendees.
Further information on this opportunity for gaining more visibility among professionals in the water industry can be received from Jim Meyer at The Wall Street Transcript or email@example.com.
Limited seating and sponsorship opportunities are still available.
Further information is available at www.twst.com/conferences; firstname.lastname@example.com or 212-952-7400 ext. 126.

The Kyoto Delusion
By Robert J. Samuelson
The education of George W. Bush on global warming is simply summarized: Honesty may not be the best policy. Greenhouse politics have long blended exaggeration and deception. Although global warming may or may not be an inevitable calamity (we don't know), politicians everywhere treat it as one. Doing otherwise would offend environmental lobbies and the public, which has been conditioned to see it as a certain disaster. But the same politicians won't do anything that would dramatically reduce global warming, because the obvious remedy -- steep increases in energy prices -- would be immensely unpopular.
By rejecting the Kyoto protocol, which would commit 38 industrial countries to control greenhouse emissions, Bush has discarded all the convenient deceits. He has brought more honesty to the global warming debate in four months than Bill Clinton did in eight years -- and this, paradoxically, is why he is so harshly condemned. He must be discredited because if he's correct, then almost everyone else has been playing fast and loose with the facts.
Bush says that the Kyoto commitments were "arbitrary and not based on science." True. Under Kyoto, the United States would cut its greenhouse gas emissions 7 percent below their 1990 levels by the years 2008 to 2012. Japan's target is 6 percent, the European Union's 8 percent. Russia gets to maintain its 1990 level, and Australia is allowed an 8 percent increase. Developing countries (Brazil, China, India) aren't covered. These targets reflect pragmatic diplomacy and little else.
Because so many countries are excluded, it's also true -- as Bush indicates -- that even if Kyoto worked as planned, the effect on greenhouse gases would be almost trivial. In 1990, says the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), global emissions of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, totaled 5.8 billion tons of "carbon equivalent." The EIA predicts that if nothing is done, emissions will rise 34 percent to 7.8 billion tons by 2010. With Kyoto, the increase would be only 26 percent to 7.3 billion tons. The reductions of industrialized countries would be more than offset by increases from developing countries.
Finally, Bush is correct when he says that reaching the Kyoto target would involve substantial economic costs for Americans. Strong U.S. economic growth has raised emissions well above their 1990 level. To hit the Kyoto target would require a cut of 30 percent or more of projected emissions. Under the Clinton administration, the EIA estimated that complying could raise electricity prices 86 percent and gasoline prices 53 percent. Higher prices are needed to induce consumers and businesses to use less energy (the source of most greenhouse gases) and switch to fuels (from coal to natural gas) that have lower emissions.
Europeans boast they've done better, implying that America's poor showing reflects a lack of will. By 1998, the 15 countries of the European Union had reduced greenhouse emissions 2.5 percent below the 1990 level. But the comparison is bogus, because Europe's performance reflects different circumstances -- and luck. Through 1998, only three countries (Germany, Britain and Luxembourg) had reduced their emissions, and these improvements were mostly fortunate accidents. The shutdown of inefficient and heavy-polluting factories in eastern Germany cut emissions. And in Britain, plentiful North Sea gas propelled a shift from coal. Generally speaking, slow population and economic growth -- meaning fewer cars, homes and offices -- helps Europe comply with Kyoto. From 1990 to 2010, the European Union's population is projected to rise 6 percent compared with a 20 percent U.S. increase.
The Clinton administration expressed alarm about global warming even while delaying effective action. Under Kyoto, countries can buy "rights" to emit greenhouse gases from other countries where -- in theory -- reductions could be more cheaply achieved. Called "emissions trading," this approach was championed by Clinton. But as David Victor of the Council on Foreign Relations argues in his book "The Collapse of the Kyoto Protocol," the scheme is an unworkable sham. Some countries -- notably Russia and Ukraine -- got emissions targets well above their needs. So they could sell excess emission "rights" to Americans. The result: The United States wouldn't cut its emissions and neither would Russia or Ukraine. Because Europeans distrusted this and other U.S. proposals, the final negotiations over Kyoto deadlocked last year.
As Bush says, we know that global temperatures are rising -- but we don't know the speed or the ultimate consequences. On all counts, his candor seems more commendable than the simplifications and evasions of his critics. And yet, his policy has stigmatized him as an environmental outlaw and earned him ill will in Europe and Japan. These are high costs. What went wrong? Just this: People say they like honesty in politicians, but on global warming, the evidence is the opposite. People prefer delusion. Kyoto responded to this urge. People want to hear that "something" is being done when little is being done and, in all likelihood, little can be done.
Barring technological breakthroughs -- ways of producing cheap energy with few emissions or capturing today's emissions -- it's hard to see how the world can deal with global warming. Developing countries sensibly insist on the right to reduce poverty through economic growth, which means more energy use and emissions. (Much is made of China's recent drop in emissions; this is probably a one-time decline, reflecting the shutdown of inefficient factories. In 1999 China had eight cars per 1,000 people compared with 767 per 1,000 for the United States. Does anyone really believe that more cars, computers and consumer goods will cut China's emissions?) Meanwhile, industrialized countries won't reduce emissions if it means reducing living standards. There is a natural stalemate.
Because this message is unwanted, politicians don't deliver it. Someone who defies conventional wisdom needs to explain his views well enough to bring public opinion to his side. Bush has, so far, failed at this critical task. Ironically, he might have fared better if he had stuck with Clinton's clever deceptions.

Full Kitchen Remodel
gdegeorgeFebruary 13, 2013
Early 90's home purchased last July. Many dated architectural elements drove a whole house renovation.
Ironwood Builders
Did you hire professional designers and contractors or was this a DIY? Great look, really like the results! Oh, and a hint as to your geographic location...The cost factor has been a topic of many posts recently and adding a bit of information to my brain data bank can help in future discussions.
The house is in Ponte Vedra Beach Florida. I am a retired retail store and bank branch designer so I took a shot at it.
The before looks a lot like my home and I have wanted to move the "wall" however it is a supporting wall in a two story home. I am going to keep looking for options.
Beverly Hughes
omg...this is exciting especially since the before pic is the same as looking at my kitchen with the exception of the wall oven. I have been wanting to update it but just have not had the money and still don't now that I am unemployed. I had envisioned an island but not turned in the same direction in the after picture - this will work - love it!

Rookie Carlos Hyde gets start at RB for 49ers
Carlos Hyde started Thursday's preseason opener for the 49ers at running back. Veteran Frank Gore took part in warmups and has been healthy throughout training camp. But at age 31, Gore is likely to see only light work in the summer session.
Instead Hyde, the team's second-round draft pick got the start. He run behind left guard Mike Iupati for seven yards on the first play of the game.
Hyde's ascension has been due in part to injuries to backup running backs Kendall Hunter and LaMichael James as well as Hyde's strong training camp to date. The team's coaches have praised both his physical ability – he's a 235-pounder who runs like a smaller man – as well as his sharpness in the meeting room.
The 49ers' coaches have said he learns like Gore, who they have said has savant-like ability as far as understanding the game.
Gore did not have any carries in last two preseason openers, either. The team's other healthy running backs are Jewel Hampton, Alfonso Smith and Glenn Winston.

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's got the funniest face of all?" Check out those Halloween trick-or-treaters at your door in a few days...You'll meet some pretty funny--and strange--faces...but you know what? They're all FAKE! When they go home, the mask comes off, the makeup comes off--and what you see is what you get!How about you? OK, of course, your face is not "funny"...but is it fake? Ouch! How many times do people ask, "How are you?" - we smile and say "fine" and we really have a limp in our step, arthritis in our knees, clog-ups in our head, pains in our feet, hurts in our hearts--and if you told someone how you REALLY felt, they'd run the other way!
REALLY? Now of course, we need to be reasonable and not tell the world every ache and pain they don't really want to know. And of course, our face needs to reflect the joy of the Lord--a sparkle in the eye, a quickening in the step (...that's our feet, not our face!), a bright smile (flossed teeth and good breath helps too...grin!). We do need to let Jesus shine through--for that's Who we represent!
BUT--what about those days, when the frown DOES comes easier than the smile, when the worry wrinkles DO show up on the brow, when the hurt is heavy and you can't hide it, what then? Well, don't "dump" on everyone you see--but don't be a fake! Don't be afraid to let a good friend know you are hurting. Be real, be real, BE REAL! That's what people are looking for--the real YOU!
A lovely gal from New York sent me this note some months ago, "Thank you for allowing God to use you and being attentive to Him. You brighten my day and more importantly you give me a chance to laugh. I love your honesty and realism. You realize that all of us are "works-in-process" and it's OK." Now that was really nice--but that's what it's all about--being honest and real--all of us!
And so...new rule: No FAKES allowed at Peggie's Place! Go check the mirror on the wall, and if the real YOU is hiding behind a mask today.....take it OFF! You'll feel better, your friends--and your foes--will like you better--AND after all, the Lord sees you without mask and without makeup ANYWAY (scary thought...grin!), so go ahead--be YOURSELF, the way God made you--it may be FUNNY but it won't be FAKE!! Believe it--and have a great day!
Delight in a Word from the Well--a refreshing in the Water of His Word
"...for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart (1 Samuel 16:7)."
Draw from the Well--a prayer for renewing strength for this day
"OK, Lord, I've been fakin' it, before my brothers and sisters, before the world--and before YOU--You already know that! I humbly take OFF my mask--I choose to be real, to be honest even when it hurts--and to let Your love shine through me to a needy world that's looking for the REAL me, redeemed by Your love and grace, In Jesus' Name, Amen."

A 75-year-old farmer died after jumping from the first floor of the Mini Vidhana Soudha in Ramanagaram on Friday, allegedly because of harassment by some officials.
The victim has been identified as Gangadharaiah alias Gangaiah, a resident of Jalamangala village, 20 km from Ramanagaram
Superintendent of Police, Ramanagaram district, Anupam Agarwal said the farmer had come to the Mini Vidhana Soudha to get a khata certificate and other documents pertaining to a piece of land at Jalamangala.
According to an eyewitness, Gangadharaiah was upset with the officials for making him run around to get the documents. "He was shouting in the corridor of the first floor," an employee at the Mini Vidhana Soudha, who requested anonymity, told The Hindu .
Second time
Gangadharaiah sustained multiple fractures and was rushed to the Government Hospital in Ramanagaram.
The victim had been visiting the Mini Vidhana Soudha for documents for the past two years.
Last year too he attempted suicide by slashing his wrist, one of his relatives told presspersons at the hospital.
The officials concerned had been refusing to provide the documents, giving silly reasons, he alleged.
Chandru, another relative, requested the police to conduct an investigation.
As soon as the news of Gangadharaiah's death spread, a large number of farmers from Jalamangala assembled at the Government Hospital in Ramanagaram, leading to a tense situation.
The police said that they have received an "unnatural death" complaint stating that Mr. Gangadharaiah committed suicide.
The investigation has just begun, a senior police officer told The Hindu .
