View Full Profilehow beautifully creative!! great effect!!
The credit for the idea must go to my husband. Spring daffodils have just surfaced in my neck of the northern hemisphere woods. This little sacrificial flower was a perfect model. The next day the daffodils were covered by several inches of snow. Sigh…that's Spring in the American Midwest.

Thank you, Barbara. Always appreciative that you stop by for a look.

Ever so thankful to you jameswalter for the feature in 1:1 Macro. This honor has made my day!

I like this effect. We have some drooping narcissus/mini-daffodils, but no club soda. I'll just enjoy your creativity and skill here.
Thank you, Jan. The little daffodil was a lovely subject. Today I was grocery shopping. While perusing tomatoes and peppers my attention was captured by some perfect tulips. Some ideas for photographing them in spring rains came to mind. This is what makes photography fun, don't you think?

What an awesome idea, your have a very creative mind.
You are so kind to say this, SKNickel but the credit for the idea behind this shot must go to my husband. We were photographing objects in club soda when all of a sudden my hubby walked over to me with a perfect little daffodil from the spring garden. Voila!

Absolutely stunning!!!!!
Sharon, I am so happy you enjoyed this image. It's only recently that I've become interested in macro photography yet I'm finding it to be so rewarding. You have such beautiful macro work, Sharon that I'm finding myself even more inspired to delve more deeply into macro work. Thank you for stopping by!

Well, it must be the photographer. My results with a tiny daffodil/narcissus? The poor dear closed up and looked quite submarine-like. I actually felt guilty.
Jan, you were working with a "diva" of a daffodil rather than a cooperative one! :))

Even if you're the laziest sod imaginable in a European city, the narrowness of the streets (whether they're 13th or 18th century), the quality of the public transport and the compactness of the shops makes walking a fundamental duty whether you like it or not. I didn't like that here you had to get into your SUV just to make the trek to buy a pint of milk or a loaf of bread here, though it certainly made for some fascinating comparisons with what I ...

Local estate developers hunt for foreign capital
VietNamNet Bridge - As the domestic financial sources are limited, Vietnamese real estate developers tend to seek capital foreign capital and look for their opportunities by cooperating with foreign firms.

Domestic powdered milk firms buoyant Domestic milk companies have increased powdered milk production to meet a higher demand on the local market. Le Nguyen Hoa, deputy chairman of Dong Tam Nutrition Food Company (Nutifood), said the powdered milk market generated 2.36 trillion VND (111.3 million USD) in revenue in 2012, which included 300 trademarks, mostly foreign. However, Hoa said, imported powdered milk is costly and domestic products are up to 60 percent cheaper and producers have better distribution systems. That is why Nutrifood is building a powdered milk factory in the southern province of Binh Duong with an annual capacity of 50,000 tonnes, he said. Another domestic firm, Vietnam Dairy Company (Vinamilk) also seems to be reaping boom benefits. Vinamilk chairwoman Mai Kieu Lien said the company's powdered milk in Binh Duong province has a capacity of 54,000 tonnes a year, which include products for children and the elderly and hospital patients.

Thanks to this, the image of the urban traffic infrastructure in Hanoi has had great changes and has become more modern and comprehensive. Opening the traffic bottlenecks The capital of Hanoi is the political, economic and cultural centre of Vietnam. In recent years it has attracted a large number of people from other areas coming to work and settle. According to the statistics of the General Office for Population Family Planning, in 2012 the population of Hanoi reached over seven million people. Its large population has caused many difficulties, such as in housing, the environment and employment and especially with traffic problems. Nearly 10 years ago, Hanoians endured traffic jams at some hot spots, such as the section from Phap Van Road to Giai Phong Road at the southern gate to the city, Kim Lien Crossroads, Nga Tu … [Read more...]
Tourism projects stand still over money issue
A number of mega tourism projects across Vietnam have failed to begin production as investors are hurt by the economic malaise. "Investors flocked to buy land and launched flowery ads on their tourism centers in the future, but what can be seen at the venues now are abandoned construction sites and destroyed ad banners," said Ho Sy Huy, a local resident in Xuyen Moc District of the coastal province of Ba Ria - Vung Tau. A number of resort projects, namely Tien Thinh, Mat Troi Buoi Sang, and Cat Van, have received investment licenses and land plots from local authorities, but all they have done with the land so far is surround it with fences. The US$11.44 million Goldenwood Home project, for instance, broke ground years ago but no construction has ever been completed at the 40-hectare land plot zoned for what was expected to be a world-class tourism complex. Similarly, Hien Nga Co. Ltd., based in Ho Chi Minh City, has failed to start work at the construction site of its … [Read more...]
$2bln-property owner has IP project scrapped
The developer of a mega-theme park has lost its license to develop an industrial park in the southern province of Tien Giang, according to local authorities. An artist's impression of the 212 ha Binh Dong Industrial Park, located in the southern province of Tien Giang, is seen in this image. Khang Thong Group has lost a license to build it because of tardy construction progress. Photo: http://www.khangthong.vn Vo Van Nam, chief of Tien Giang's Industrial Park Authority, said that he signed last week a decision to withdraw an investment certificate that allowed Khang Thong Group, based in Ho Chi Minh City, to build the 212 ha Binh Dong Industrial Park in Go Cong Town. Khang Thong, which is developing a US$2 billion entertainment complex in neighbouring Long An Province, had earlier asked Tien Giang authorities for a return of the industrial project to the province, citing high land compensation expenses among the reasons. The Binh … [Read more...]
Super petrochemical project raises worries about capital source, feasibility
VietNamNet Bridge - Vietnamese have not leaped for joy on the mammoth 28.7 billion dollar oil refinery project, because they still keep doubts about the feasibility of the project. The "petrochemistry ambition" The pre-feasibility study on the Nhon Hoi oil refinery registered by the Thai PTT Group got the approval from the Binh Dinh provincial authorities some days ago. This would be really a huge oil refinery to cover an area of 2000 hectares, have the capacity of 660,000 barrels per day and employ 15,000 workers. … [Read more...]

Michael Jackson's father denies equity investment in Vietnam theme park
Joseph Walter "Joe" Jackson, Michael Jackson's father, has told Vietnamese media he is not an investor in a US$2 billion theme park project in Vietnam. Joseph Walter "Joe" Jackson Jackson, 84, said in a statement Wednesday that after careful consideration and discussions with his wife, family and advisors, he had decided not to proceed with any further investment or involvement in project Happyland Vietnam. Happyland Vietnam, backed by the Khang Thong Group, is projected to be the largest theme park in South East Asia. It was to be inspired by the late Michael Jackson's Neverland Valley Ranch. The Khang Thong Group had said Jackson is an investor in the 1,000-room hotel planned in Happyland, which would be located in the Mekong Delta province of Long An. However, Jackson said he had only inked an agreement to promote the project around the world and attract big foreign investors into Happyland. "I signed an agreement to promote the project around the world and further assist … [Read more...]

Jackson's dad tells project in VN: beat it
HA NOI - (VNS) The King of Pop's father, Joseph Walter Jackson has mysteriously pulled the plug on his involvement with southern province Long An's Happyland Project, the largest tourism project in Southeast Asia. The former manager of the Jackson 5 claimed he had been attached to the US$2bn project in an investment and consultancy role, but an announcement on his family's website said he was cutting his ties to the scheme.

Tuyen Quang miners to export barites The Government has allowed barites ore exploitation and processing enterprises in the northern province of Tuyen Quang to export about 70,000 tonnes of barites this year after meeting domestic demands, said Hoang Quoc Binh, director of the province's Department of Industry and Trade. Binh expected that exports of barites, used in petrol, chemical and glass production industries, would help the province meet its export target of US$15 million this year. The province currently has six barites ore producers, whose yearly total output reaches roughly 320,000 tonnes. Banks flirt with low interest rates Vietcombank announced on Thursday a reduction of up to 2 per cent in interest rates on loans made in Vietnamese dong, depending on terms.

Labour export market looks grim in 2012
Vietnam's goal to send 90,000 workers abroad in 2012 poses a huge challenge as its labour export market remains unstable. Despite the global labour market being heavily affected by the economic and financial crises in 2011, Vietnam sent 88,298 guest workers abroad and achieved 101.5 percent of the set target. A VOV reporter interviewed the Deputy Head of the Overseas Labour Management Department under the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA), Dao Cong Hai. Reporter:Despite the impact of the global economic downturn, Vietnam still obtained such good results exporting labour. Could you please explain why we achieved this impressive figure? Mr Hai: The export of nearly 88,300 guest workers sent abroad to work in 2011 was a boon for Vietnam in the context of the sluggish global labour market and falling demand for guest workers. Also, due to the political crisis in Libya, Vietnam had to bring home a large number of guest workers from this lucrative labour … [Read more...]
Work kicks off on Vietnam's largest ever film studio
Khang Thong Group, investor of the Happyland Entertainment Complex project in southern Long An Province's Ben Luc District, began work yesterday on the country's largest studio. Speaking at the ground-breaking ceremony, Huynh Vinh Ai, deputy minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said that the ministry had listed the Happyland project as a major tourism area in the country's tourism master plan to be submitted to the Government for approval. In the context of the ongoing financial crisis and economic slowdown, the international-scale Happyland project was a bright spot that would attract tourists and investors, contributing to the country's cultural and economic development, Ai said. Apart from producing films, television programmes and music performances, the studios, built to international standards, will introduce to visitors the historical landmarks in the movie history, special effect techniques that have been used, and games for all ages. It is expected to be completed in … [Read more...]

Mikey Dudek spent most of the last two games on the sidelines.
The senior receiver's services weren't needed, not with the Wildcats putting games away in the first half in consecutive blowouts.
The Illinois recruit made the most of the extra playing time Friday, returning the second-half kickoff 77 yards for a touchdown and catching a 7-yard touchdown to spark Neuqua Valley to a 40-25 win over No. 16 Waubonsie Valley before a standing-room only crowd of 8,000 fans at North Central College in Naperville.
"It was nice playing a full game and contributing to this win," Dudek said.
Dudek tormented the Warriors from the opening drive, when he had three receptions for 50 yards, including a touchdown. The Warriors tried shading a safety to Dudek's side, helping open up lanes for the Wildcats' running game. Dudek caught seven passes for 97 yards and one touchdown, and returned two kickoffs for 109 yards a one score.
Waubonsie Valley (5-2, 3-1 Upstate Eight Valley) that entered the game leading the division in scoring defense (93 points allowed). Neuqua Valley (6-1, 4-0) had 176 yards rushing and 177 passing, scoring touchdowns on six of their eight drives. T.J. Scruggs led the Wildcats with 149 yards rushing and two touchdowns.
"Our running game did a really good job, T.J. ran really well and the offensive line did a nice job despite being down a man," Dudek said.
A year after the two teams combined for 69 points with Neuqua Valley pulling out a one-point double-overtime thriller in the regular season, the Wildcats won their third straight game in the series and ended the Warriors' winning streak at five.
Player of the game: Mikey Dudek, Neuqua Valley, 7 catches, 97 yards, 1 TD; 2 kickoff returns, 109 yards, 77-yard TD.
Key performers: Neuqua Valley — Broc Rutter, 10-for-13, 177 yards, 3 TDs; T.J. Scruggs, 22 carries, 149 yards, 2 TDs. Waubonsie Valley — Jack Eddy, 16-for-29, 180 yards; 7 carries, 35 yards, 2 TDs; Tony Durns, 7 carries, 59 yards, 1 TD.

Well, as many of us can relate, I never took any kind of art classes. What I did do was to study anatomy, perspective, colors, etc. when I was younger, which was helpful in making it easier. But, honestly, the real deal here is to keep practising and learning as you go. Do you take art requests/collabs/trades/commissions? Please, check my Status widget! For how long have you been drawing? I've been drawing since I've been little. I took a break from it for around three years and only drew occasionally when I was younger. Retook it when I was 16.

You May Say I'm An Artist...techgnotic
By techgnotic
I am haunted in this holiday season by the opening lines of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities, his novel about a society 250 years ago coming apart in its seemingly irreconcilable divisions. Could it be these lines define where we have come to find ourselves today?
"It was the best of times,
it was the worst of times,
in the age of wisdom,
it was the age of foolishness,
it was the epoch of belief,
it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of Light,
it was the season of Darkness,
it was the spring of hope,

Happy Holidays from DeviantArt!'Twas the night before Christmas on DeviantArt,Heidi
Not a paintbrush was stirring, and creators took heart.
The artists scrolled through Daily Deviations with care
Knowing kindred warm-fuzzies soon would be there.
Deviants were all swiping, all snug on their phones
While visions of inspiration across all time zones
Were zapped to their smart device, quick as can be,
At the tap of a button in a +Fav'ing spree!
When across the Interwebs there arose such a clatter,
I sprang to the Comments to see what was the matter,
"I'm bored," the Journal wrote, "I'm on a long trip, too.
I don't have my laptop, and there's nothing to do."
I cracked all my knuckles, settled down in my chair,
Then descended upon the keyboard and wrote with a flair:
"Dear Friend, did you not get DA's early present?
We now have an app, and it won't cost you one cent!
"On, Watch Feed! On, Browse! On, Explore! On, Today!

Naruto's finale rantWell, well, well.radfel
I know a few people wants to read my final rant on a manga I followed roughly 8 years ago (I think). I ranted and ranted a lot when it came to Sauce and Itachi, which, in my opinion (and my opinion is perfect XD), were Kishimoto's best characters by far. Why? Because the basis for their interaction was simple but the path they took to achieve objectives was not only complex but stirred great shit within the fandom because of their lack of reading comprehension.
As such, a lot of you know that I was pretty on point whenever it came to my theories regarding Uchiha bros, even as far as predicting outcomes such as Itachi coming back after his death (though I never imagined Edo Tensei) and the fact that Sauce needed to hear an "I love you" from his bro to truly go on and allow Naruto to fulfill his character role by letting Sasuke TnJ himself instead of being babysit by Nardo.
So, what the fuck happened?! I don't write anything in my journal and suddenly
My birthday is on January 3. I'm a bisexual Mexican woman that likes to make Naruto fanart amongst other things. I'm currently studying Graphic Design. Feel free to use Español, English and Português with me. I'm very flexible when it comes to my work being distributed or used*, except when I clearly state otherwise, but please credit me if you use or distribute any of my work. *as in it not being modified per se (e.g. as an avatar), I'm very okay with that. Except when it's tracing. Then you're just mutilating my artwork.You can also find me on Tumblr. You can ask me anything on my Ask.fm |

This restaurant was categorized as moderately priced. It was actually very pricey. The waiter was grumpy and ungracious. . The wine selection was poor. The decor was okay and the food wasn't bad, but not worth those high prices. They ran out of deserts very early on. The only good thing I can say about them is that they quoted the prices of the specials up front - just as well since they were over $40's for an entree. When my husband complained that his wine tasted sour, the waiter practically stuck his nose into it and claimed that it was OK. I will not go back there again.

Poor service. Could not be worse. Food ok, not bad, but not good enough. Poor value. Need I say more.
Posted by anonymous on 04/11/2013
Although the service was always questionable (and a very rigid chef), the food used to be excellent, and relatively good value for the quality of cooking. On our recent visits, however, the food has gone dramatically down, while the price has gone up.

I have been living in the neighborhood for many years but just discovered this little gem of a french bistro. The mussles were great but quite frankly I was a bit disappointed that I had to pay extra for the frites, which are customarily an included side accompaniment at most french bistros. Aside from the gum-chewing waitress, the service was fine and the food very good. I have taken friends there twice and am going again tonight.

I walked by Cassis after the restaurant I was planning to go to was booked up. It's really charming. Excellent food (lamb shank perfectly prepared), wonderful service and very reasonable price for the quality. I will be going back. Highly recommended. New York City does it again!
Posted by Steve J on 01/09/2012
This little gem surpassed all expectations for culinary excellence, service, value and ambiance. It's one restaurant in NYC I will return to time and time again.
Posted by Dancer101 on 10/29/2011
Walking up columbus ave after film festival at Lincoln center we were looking for a quiet place that two adults and teenager could all enjoy dinner. So happy we found bistro casis. Very pretty place, excellent food and very pleasant waiter. We had a lovely dinner!

What does "does not stack with itself" mean? Is only one of the effects counted for an item? For rylai's scepter, would either the 500 hp converted into AP, or the AP converted into HP, but not both? How would the passive decide which to convert?
Da Orkz
It means the bonus does not give more of a bonus.
It means the bonuses he gets from his passive won't give him more bonus HP/AP.
his passive gives him ap for health and health for ap its saying if u buy a health or apitem it will give u just ap/health, if it didnt work like that it would give u ap then health and then ap ect.
1. Buy Amplifying Tome 2. ??? 3. 32752758972589725872893752893758273589723857928375 892735897289357289375892375 AP/HP 4. PROFIT!
I can see the best build being zhonya + 5 sunfires
Basically, if you buy an HP item, it will give you AP...but that bonus AP will not give you bonus HP, and vice versa. So, if you purchase Rylai's...you get bonus AP from the HP on the item...and bonus HP from the AP on the item...but won't gain any extra bonus HP/AP from the bonus HP/AP you were already given via his passive. Man that was rough to write.
if it did stack his Health and AP would just keep going up

Musical Mama: See All of Gwen Stefani's Pregnancy Looks!
While Gwen Stefani is certainly a style icon on stage, the maternity looks she sports around her family continue her offbeat ways. Although she has yet to verbally confirm her third pregnancy, her body language proves differently, especially when she cradled her baby bump during a night out with her husband, Gavin Rossdale. Between weekend layers and glamorous outings, expect to find looks filled with everything but mom jeans in the No Doubt rocker's arsenal. It's safe to say her signature red lip and platinum hair pair perfectly with her pregnancy glow.

Audio formats are MP3Pro, FLAC and WAV version 3, with MusePack and AIFF newly added. SmartDetect automatic drive support searches independently for removable storage. The Linux version can't come even close to the volume of Windows Nero versions out there and it lacks their video functions.
I prefer Nero Linux but don't know if I'll upgrade again
I'm a happy owner of NeroLinux v3 and use it as my primary burning sw. I appreciate how many formats it supports and all from one consistent interface. Having said that I don't think this new v4 has anything I need so I probably won't upgrade. -
it'll never fly
I agree with MadMan.. this will never get off the ground.. There are too many excellent free and open alternatives in GNU/Linux. Also they are trying to introduce proprietary software into a culture of free and open software. Which, unless the product offers something not otherwise available, tends to flop badly. I also would not be surprised to find out that Nero's burning software for GNU/Linux is nothing but a front end for cdrecord, cdrdao, wodim,etc. However I'm not willing to spend $20 to find out. -
Nero 4 Linux, hehe...
I think it's a little too late now for Nero in Linux (or other *nix systems, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc).
It's great in windows, for windows, as windows is very limited, but why pay for something like this outside of windows (at least for now) when there's free and better alternatives. k3b, etc.

Re: Carlo Scala rider Q2: problems with iPhone 3G under IPhone OS 3.O ? in response to LarroHi All,
guess what ... another very disappointed iPhone user.
I'm using my Scala rider Q2 and paired with the iphone.
A phone call was O.K. after i blow up the volume, but what give my the hump was that I'm not able to get the navigation voice to my headset. Navigon (which is great) costs a lot and now no sound??
Very interesting was, that it was possible to transmit the navigation sound when I try to make a voice control command to the iPhone. So technically it is working. It looks like this is an issue with the iPhone firmware respective bluetooth protocol.
Btw.: listen music fron the iPhone to the Q2 is also not possible.
Please, please, please please ....... fix this.
Thx Holger -

Cutting sheet metal
I need some input on a practical problem Ive encounter. Im trying to cut 1.6mm sheet metal but are getting in to trouble with my tools and lack of knowledge.
First I tried to use my jigsaw set up with a strait ruler. Problem here is the blade just wanders off without any control until it brakes. Thinking I must be the smartest guy on the block I mounted my angle grinder to a plate like a table saw. Same problem. Even with the most expensive cutting disc from my hardware store the disk is flexing so much its impossible to get straight cuts. What I learned is that more expensive cuttings disks will flex more before breaking. I dont know the specification for the metal used in the sheet other than it's very heavy, but actually rather soft to drill. |

I assume you are cutting sheet steel? From my experience when cutting hard materials with a jigsaw, guides don't work. Best to go freehand on a slow speed with no pendulum. Don't forget the goggles! With a thin steel cutting disc, same, go freehand. Its thin enough to use snips, Maybe do a rough cut and then go back along your line and clean it up. |

use freehand and turn the jigsaw to stay close to the "cut" line.
Finish with a file to trim to line.

Yes it's steel plate, sorry I wasn't more clear. I was afraid you would suggest freehand I've done that in the past. At one time I had a cutting disk that would not grind into my wood guide. But with discs I got now I don't get good result using wood rulers. I'm afraid my "free"hand is not very trustworthy That's why I'm looking in to different setups. |

You can get circular saw blades that cut steel, I have one of these:

Yeah, been looking something like that. Found one that could handle aluminum. But asking for something to cut steel plate thicker than 1.2mm I've so far draw blank. One probably need cooling for it to work.

You can take it to a sheet metal shop that does air conditioning fabrication of ducts and so forth and they can shear cut it for you.
If cutting it yourself consider the proper blade and use cutting fluid to prolong blade life. Or go to Harbor Freight and get the cheap right angle grinder with a thin 4" cut off wheel that will butter right thru it. Regards David |

Tribal Water
September 2014 CAP/Tribal Workshop
CAP's Economic Impact to Arizona
Colorado River Drought Response and System Sustainability
Arizona's tribal governments and communities are important stakeholders in the CAP system. Following enactment of the Arizona Water Settlements Act of 2004, a total forty-seven percent of the CAP supply now is designated for Indian water rights settlements. This makes CAP the largest single provider of Colorado River water to Native American water users in the Colorado River system.
Many view CAP as a critical tool for settling Indian water rights claims. To date, nine tribes have partial or completed settlements. Two tribes have a proposed partial settlement pending in Congress. Four tribes have court decreed Lower Colorado River water rights.
CAP Indian Water Rights Settlements
Fully Resolved Claims:
Adjudicated Rights in Arizona v. California:
Proposed Partial Resolution of Water Rights Claims:
Additionally, three tribes have CAP contract entitlements and eleven tribes have outstanding, unresolved water rights claims. As more tribes begin to take CAP water, our need to understand one another's operations will continue to grow. To meet this changing demand, the CAP is proactively working with tribes and their communities, understanding that each tribe is different, each presents unique challenges and opportunities, and each is its own sovereign governmental entity. Collaboration constructed the CAP and CAP believes it is through ever-evolving partnerships like these that we can mutually propel our desert communities forward. |

by Twain, Mark
Publisher:Oxford University Press, USA
"It wasn't clear in 1870 what sort of sequel Twain might devise after the triumph of The Innocents Abroad, but all indications suggest that he would continue to excel as a writer of humorous travelogue. Instead, he surprised readers and himself by taking an enormous step in the direction of literary fiction, creating a book that continues to dazzle with the variety of its many idioms and the sheer exuberance of its depiction of frontier life," Henry Wonham tells us in his afterword. Marking a crucial phase in the author's life and career, Roughing It vividly recounts Twain's adventures in the West. Twain blends autobiography and tall tale to produce this engaging humorous account of six boisterous years in Nevada, San Francisco, and Hawaii. Genteel culture meets frontier culture head-on in this wildly inventive, high-spirited book, and neither will ever be the same.

On July 1 around 10 a.m., Delhi Cantonment railway station will be teeming with about 1,000 girls dressed in khaki and armed with enough books to last a fortnight.
1,000 NCC, NSS girls are alol set to embark on a 12-day special train journey to experience India. Many of them will be seen keenly observing the platform and taking notes before boarding a train that has been especially booked for them by Delhi University.
These 1,000 girls are the first batch of students to embark on the maiden expedition of "Gyanodaya", a train journey to take university students across the length and breadth of the country to observe first-hand how their countrymen live, part of the grand plans announced by Vice-Chancellor Dinesh Singh early this summer, with the explanation that a train journey in India was an education in itself.
"Sleeper class compartments have been booked. We are trying to keep it as real as possible. They are all NCC and NSS cadets, the colleges have screened these 1,000 students based on their own methods," he said, before adding: "These cadets have the right kind of attitude and show an early inclination to serve the country, therefore they have been specifically chosen for the inaugural journey."
According to Prof. Singh, there is something always to be learnt for an aspiring engineer, sociologist, geologist and historian from a train ride. "Our students will observe the engineering behind the workings of a train and the different lives of ordinary people as they pass through railway platforms in different regions and we will visit places to make history come alive," he had said, while first revealing his plans.
The train will go Ahmadabad, Mumbai, Goa, Bangalore and Wardha before returning to Delhi. There will be conducted tours of places special to each city with the usual mixture of games, leisure and shopping lined up. However, it is not all fun and games for the girls.
They will have an orientation session at the beginning of the journey where they will be provided a couple of books along with instructions of what is expected of them during and after the journey.
They will be expected to read all these books and keenly observe the compartment design of the train, food habits and other sociological aspects of people they see on the railway platforms along their way. They will also have to study the geography, agriculture, language, literature and ethnicity of people of different regions that they visit.
"No sitting by yourself at any time during the journey" is a strict rule that will be followed throughout as students will be expected to be part of the group, helping fellow students and taking part in group discussions.
At the end of 12 days, a two-page report of the entire journey and a one-page report based on the book collection will have to be submitted by every student.
There is no escaping the classroom assignments as students will be accompanied by their professors and if his schedule allows it, Prof. Singh himself.
Keywords: NSS, Delhi Cantonment railway station, Gyanodaya, train journey, study trip

How to Poach an Egg
My best friend was in town from Los Angeles over the weekend, and one of the first things she did when she saw me was to proudly proclaim that she had set a cooking goal for herself. "I love poached eggs at brunch, so it's time I learned how to make them at home," she said. Instead of going out on Sunday, we stayed home and made poached eggs with blender hollandaise and prosciutto. For some reason, poached eggs developed a reputation for being difficult to make, but really, the process is easier than waiting in line at a popular city brunch spot. See step-by-step photos when you keep reading.

That looks so easy! Will definitely have to try sometimes. I'm a huge fan of eggs benedict, but it's limited to being a treat when I travel!
4 years
I'm kind of skeptical about the vinegar. I mean, I feel that to change the pH enough to encourage the protein in the egg whites to denature would mean more vinegar than most people add. And to add enough would make the eggs taste very vinegary.
4 years
I've attempted to poach eggs in the past without vinegar; thanks for the tip! I will definitely give it another go.
4 years
I've never poached eggs before but would like to try. It looks a lot less intimidating now! Thanks for the slideshow.

I love poached eggs but always thought they really hard, I can't wait to try this out!!

i'm going to try this! my mom uses one of those poachpods to make hers and those work well if you want to do something other than the old school method featured here.

Forum Theatre en
The Forum Theatre is a theatre located on the corner of Flinders Street and Russell Street in the central business district of Melbourne, Australia. The building was designed by American architect John Eberson, who has designed many theatres around the globe, along with a local architectural firm at the time; Bohringer, Taylor & Johnson. It was designed as an "Atmospheric theatre" movie palace. The interior features reproductions of Greco-Roman statuary and a sky-blue ceiling decorated with small stars, mimicking a twilight sky.

text: There is a video that shows how to ever so slightly modify the mag follower, and that totally removes the issue and allows the round to be chambered by racking the slide every time. I did it to mine and I know for a fact that it does work. And by saying racking the slide I don't mean a super dooper fast as you can rack either. It's just a normal motion like with any other pistol. All it takes is a bic pen and some fine grit sandpaper and just a few minutes of time. Why this needs to be done, and why didn't Kahr do it or change the follower out? Who knows ask them. All I know is, I did it to all of my mags and problem solved; no more nose diving first round and or rounds that flip out while in the pocket. JFYI

A group of women who recently gathered in the meeting room at Leetonia Community Public Library tangled with a unique form of expression.
Kathie Sabatino led them through steps to make repetitive pen strokes that became patterns. Called Zentangle, the copyrighted art form and method was created by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas.
Sabatino, who isn't a certified Zentangle teacher, said she hopes to become one. She's on a waiting list to take the four-day, $2,000 seminar to do just that.
Her at-home business in Salem is The Sewing Room, where she offers classes, quilting service and quilts for sale. For information, call 330-337-3887. "I've been sewing all my life," she said. "It comes naturally."
She started learning about Zentangle last January when she attended a class. She knew she had to continue with it. "I have to do that," she said.
Sabatino said Zentangle produced an unexpected effect in her quilting: it improved it. "I think it's about the focus and concentration."
She encouraged the women who met at the library by saying, "There's no right or wrong expression ... draw in the moment."
Sabatino said there are some 140 original Zentangles; more information on the process may be found at www.zentangle,com, com.
One might compare the strokes to doodles. When repeated and combined with other different strokes, a unique design emerges.
Sabatino said the process, done only in black and white, starts with a 31/2-inch tile, or piece of white or black paper. A black pen is used on white paper and a white gel pen on black paper.
She noted the creators purposefully used what she called "quirky names" to describe the strokes. That's to prevent any preconceived ideas.
Drawing lines to made a paradox, a triangle, is a study in concentration. Sabatino asked the women to draw the triangle on the tile; then the tile is turned to the right and another triangle is drawn and so on and on.
"You concentrate and focus so much on drawing the lines, it becomes meditative," Sabatino said. "The actions are calming and relaxing."
What's interesting is that 10 people can use the same strokes, but each will produce a unique design. It's how they put them together.
As for shadowing, Sabatino said she takes a photo of the piece and looking at it reveals what should be highlighted.
A cotton-tipped swab works well to shade as does chalk. The best thing? "If you don't like it, erase it," she said.
Maybe what attracts people to Zentangle is the whole premise of being "free form."
Cynthia Foust of Youngstown agrees. "Doing this relaxes me," she said.
"I like it because it's simple to do but looks impressive. It's easy and not expensive," Foust said.
She showed some of the designs she had done and framed. "I plan to give some as Christmas gifts," she said.
Jeannie Morello of McDonald said she had heard about Zentangle and wanted to learn about it. "It takes me to a different place," she said.
Her sister-in-law, Mary Ann Sullivan of Youngs-town, said she had seen a book on Zentangle and it interested her. "It's like a meditation exercise," she said.
Betsy Williams of Lisbon, who said she habitually doodles, likened Zentangle to doodling with an end goal.
Looking at a book on Zentangle didn't help her; she learned more from the visual experience of watching Sabatino execute the strokes. "It's satisfying," she said of tangling. "You can't believe what people do with it."
Someone tell her my course is only for 3 day's,& mine costs,1999.00. I call mine,scribbling clouds.You learn to look up at the cloud's,& they make faces for,or at you.hahaha
