I have a problem with a Hefe I bottled about 18 days ago. When I went to bottle I overheated the corn sugar and it made a thick goo when I cooled it down too fast, so I heated it back up and poured it into my bottle bucket. Well when I was done bottling there was a bunch of the sugar stuck to the bottom of the bucket so it didnt it make into the bottles. I opened a bottle on Sat (16 days into the carbing) and had no carb at all. My question is this, I'm about to pick up my kegging stuff, would it be bad to just dump the bottles into a keg slowly and just force carb it?
I would enjoy it as it is, and brew a fresh batch for your first keg.
drink the bottles and mark it lesson learned.
yea what they said. plus odds are you may have gotten sufficient sugar into SOME of the bottles to atleast allow for a partial carb.
!8 days is STILL too early to judge, if you got some sugar water (not the crud) into your bottling bucket and mixed you will have some carbonation in time....It's possible (and proven by running the numbers in beersmith) to NOT add priming sugar and get minimal carbonation of a few volumes in time (in old brewing british brewing books they didn't ass sugar to some ordinary bitters and relied on time and temp to do the work naturally.)
So it's possible for even the slightest amount of sugar to give the yeasties enough food...I would adjitated the beer to re-rouse the yeast and set them aside for a couple more weeks, making sure they are above 70 degrees....
Read this...Revvy's Blog of patience and bottle conditioning.
If you are getting kegging stuff, just set these bottles aside a few more weeks, and see if they do their thing....but if you tried to dump them in the keg, you could more than likely end up oxydizing them beer, and making them worse, rather than just having undercarbed beer...if you were in England, you would more than likely think lower carbed beers were better (like cask ales) but you are probably a yank who grew up with highly fizzy yellow water beer, so you think beer has to be highly fizzed, when in truth it can be quite drinakabble at a lower level of carbonation as well.
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman
I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
I still have some irish red left that is about 4weeks in the bottle and tastes great, was just hoping for a couple of different brews.
thanks again, ill keep waiting!
I kept waiting and no carb, so this weekend i dumped them all into a keg. as of sunday they were drinkable and very tasty. So for the time being it has worked. As far as off flavors we will see with time, although i don't think this will be around more than a week.
Nice save. Your only worry might be oxidation if it happens to be around for a few weeks but sounds like you won't have that problem.

The Dancing Defensive End
Miami Dolphins Star Jason Taylor Makes PEOPLE's Most Beautiful List
Age: 33
The Dancing Defensive End
If he hasn't already taken enough ribbing from his Miami Dolphins teammates about his elegant moves on Dancing with the Stars, more is on the way. "This article will be plastered in the locker room," predicts the 6'6" Taylor. To make it easier for the less-refined Dolphins, we provide a list of talking points:
1. He gets manicures and pedicures. "I admit it. I take care of myself, and I enjoy it."
2. "I get facials. When you're sweating, the pores on your nose get dirty."
3. He bleaches his teeth, shaves his chest, uses moisturizers that "my wife [Katina] gives me," and often takes longer to get dressed.
4. Dancing with the Stars—for which he powders his head to keep it from shining—has got him in his best off-season shape. "I've leaned and trimmed up."
5. In high school "I was 6'3" and weighed 170 lbs. I was like a No. 2 pencil! I was last to be picked to play."
With that, let the locker-room mockery begin.
"In the guy world, it's a sign of respect. I'd be more worried if they didn't tease me."

Psychological trauma symptom improvement in veterans using EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques): A randomized controlled trial
Citation (APA Style): Church, D., Hawk, C., Brooks, A. J., Toukolehto, O., Wren, M., Dinter, I., & Stein, P. (2013) Psychological trauma symptom improvement in veterans using EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques): A randomized controlled trial. Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 201, 153-160.
This study examined the effect of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), a brief exposure therapy combining cognitive and somatic elements, on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and psychological distress symptoms in veterans receiving mental health services. Veterans meeting the clinical criteria for PTSD were randomized to EFT (n = 30) or standard of care wait list (SOC/WL; n = 29). The EFT intervention consisted of 6 hour-long EFT coaching sessions concurrent with standard care. The SOC/WL and EFT groups were compared pre- and posttest (at 1 month for the SOC/WL group, after 6 sessions for EFT group). EFT subjects had significantly reduced psychological distress (p < .0012) and PTSD symptom levels (p < .0001) posttest. In addition, 90% of the EFT group no longer met PTSD clinical criteria, compared with 4% in SOC/WL. Following the wait period, SOC/WL subjects received EFT. In a within-subjects longitudinal analysis, 60% no longer met PTSD clinical criteria after 3 sessions. This increased to 86% after 6 sessions for the 49 subjects who ultimately received EFT, and remained at 86% at 3-months and 80% at 6-months. The results are consistent with other published reports showing EFTs efficacy at treating PTSD and co-morbid symptoms and its long-term effects.
Keywords: veterans, PTSD, exposure therapy, trauma, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)

Argentine Youth: An Untapped Potential? - World Bank Country Study (Paperback)World Bank
Paperback Published: 15/05/2009
- Not in our warehouse
Argentina's youth-6.7 million between the ages of 15 and 24 - are an important, but to a certain extent untapped, resource for development. Over 2 million (31 per cent) have already engaged in risky behaviors, and another 1 million (15 percent) are exposed to risk factors that are correlated with eventual risky behaviors. This totals 46 per cent of youth at some form of risk. This book addresses the risks faced by youth in Argentina such as low education attainment, unemployment, teenage pregnancy, use and abuse of drugs and alcohol, becoming victims of crime, and low level of civic participation, as well as the policy options for addressing them. The chance of reducing the numbers of youth at risk over the long term is greatest by focusing policies and programs on the individual (improving life skills, self-esteem), on key relationships (parents, caregivers, peers), on communities (schools, neighborhoods, police), and on societal laws and norms. Specific recommendations were developed during consultations with government counterparts.

So soft!!! The size is perfect for someone to sleep on the couch.
Loved this! Bought it for my son's girlfriend. It was so soft and warm, I wanted to keep it for myself! Instead, bought myself one later!
I really love this throw, but it is very delicate. I love the colors and the design, but I don't want to ruin it so I rather use it for show.
It is beautiful and warm. Wish I had ordered several. Do not hesitate to purchase.
It took 3+ weeks to receive throw as there was a mix up with the shipping (PO Box vs. street address) but it was worth the wait. This throw is light weight but good size and looks very elegant in my living room. I was pleasantly surprised to see the tan was warmer and richer than the photo. It really brings my room together. As for the shipping problem: this website would NOT let me enter my PO Box (even after the street address on the first line) and insisted I ship to a street address. Then they shipped the item via the Postal Service which does not deliver to my street address. When I contacted Customer service to reship item they said they didn't know ahead of time how the item would ship (UPS vs. USPS) but did reship the item using both addresses. I received it in the mail 10 days later.
Items must be returned in new or unused condition and contain all original materials included with the shipment. More details

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?

A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Bruins captain Zdeno Chara was given a five-minute interference major and a game misconduct when a hit along the boards forced Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty to hit his head on the glassed area and left him motionless on the ice. After the game, the Chara spoke about the play.
"Obviously, that wasn't my intention to push him into the post," Chara told reporters following the game. "It's very unfortunate. In that situation, everything's happening fast, and you're not planning to do that. That's not my style to hurt somebody. I always play hard, play physical, but I never try to hurt anybody. I'm hoping he's OK."
"I think what people have to understand is Zdeno is not a dirty player," Bruins coach Claude Julien said in his NESN postgame interview with Naoko Funayama. "He certainly never meant for that to happen. I think if anything he tried to rub him out in the boards. Unfortunately it's the partition that did the damage. If it's anywhere else on the ice, it might be a normal interference call at worst. Unfortunately he hit the partition. That's something that' we've happen often. I know there's padding there and we've tried to rectify that as far as helping guys not get hie in that area, but it still continues to happen."

Zoos have been around for several hundred years. Have they saved their non-human inmates from the humans yet? Wake me up when they do.
I love the zoo and think it's past time that the zoo update its main building. Zoos have a key role in getting people interested in wildlife which will, in the long run, help create the political pressure to save wildlife habitats.
Back in the early '80s, when the future NOTA was just a poor neighborhood with many vacant buildings - houses, the factories that became Village Gate and the Towner Building, Neighborhood Housing Services (NHS) came in and connected with neighbors and early renovators in the the Atlantic-University neighborhood AND the neighborhood on the other side of the Atlantic Ave underpass, between Atlantic and East Main, in an effort to re-vitalize both. There was also a strong Beechwood neighborhood association . Atlantic-University was successful in this initiative. I'm not sure what happened to NHS. Part of what happened in A-U was due to momentum created by its existing residents and early pioneer renovators that started back in the '70s - I bought a vacant house in a city auction1980 and joined the Atlantic-University neighborhood association, strengthening it's partnership with the city - which included infrastructure improvements. One of the Association's initiatives was to convince the city to auction off remaining vacant houses to owner occupants only, which enabled moderate to low-income families to own and renovate houses. Our goal was to increase home ownership and not gentrify the area. As the housing stock stabilized there came the bold initiatives of the Stern brothers and Paul Kramer who undertook the renovation of Stecher-Traung complex (the future Village Gate) and the Towner building. There were also those already anchoring the area, including Artie Goldfetter, the owner of Fabrics and Findings and other early pioneers.. There was momentum. The other factor was the early - albeit slight - rise in property values, which led some slumlords to sell and move on to other areas, unfortunately including the Public Market area. What happened in Beechwood and other poorer areas that led to their being left behind? Many factors, not the least being, in my opinion, the crack epidemic of the 1980s. Efforts to renovate houses and commercial buildings seemed to fizzle out. But I still believe that there can be a renaissance there. Hungerford is becoming a destination for artists and other entrepreneurs. Marketplace Heights has worked diligently to stabilize that area, but there is no ignoring the overwhelming fact of extreme poverty, with all that accompanies it. I know there are people doing good work there, and would love to hear more from them.
Not really sure why City censored my post as I wasn't trying to sell anything. I was merely trying to recommend a book ("Ishmael" by Daniel Quinn) that folks can borrow from their local library if they so choose. It was an eye-opening book for me personally and I think it's entirely relevant to this conversation about animal captivity and human global dominance (but thanks for censoring me without even knowing what you censored). Perhaps I should've used this link instead: http://www.ishmael.org/Origins/Ishmael/
Cammy has a strong voice, here with a little more instrumentation:
We were told if you liked your health care plan you could keep your health care plan, and if you liked your doctor you could keep your doctor. We were promised that health care costs would drop $2,500 per family. It turned out to be a bunch of Democrat lies. Now we're being told that we will get even better health care and the state (but probably not the average taxpayer) will save $45 BILLION dollars with this new plan. Are we really so stupid as to believe any of this? All we need now is Jonathan Gruber's endorsement of "Gottfriedcare".
I thought that the "affordable care act" was suppose to make everything better. And now we have a "solution" to make the ACA better. Can't wait for the government to roll out the next "solution" after that too. We sure have become gullible in this state and country.
The zoo should not be prison to animals that should otherwise be free. The should also not serve animals as food. The irony with the only reason a 'zoo' might need to exist is to help animals who might otherwise go extinct. The irony? The eating of animals is one of the prime reasons animals go extinct. If the zoo would not serve animals on a plate and if people would not put animals on their plate, there would be no reason for a zoo at all.
Rain forests are cut down or burned at rate of 80,000 to 200,000 acres per day and much of the reason is for animal agriculture, a place to graze animals or to grow food to feed the animals that people eat. Millions upon millions of acres in the United States are used to graze cows or to grow food for cows. These lands were once home to an abundance of biodiversity. Now they are home to monocrops of genetically modified corn and soy, a diet not even suitable for a cow which is why they are fed antibiotics (another problem). Millions of tons of animal waste lay ruin to waterways and areas that once were biodiverse. Overfishing where 7.3 million tons of dolphin and other animals that people do not eat are thrown away, dead as by-catch. All of this mass destruction for a hot dog or a hamburger that is not even healthy to eat anyway.
If we did not eat animals we would reduce the amount of land needed to grow food by a staggering amount.
The whole problem with a zoo is the problem in general: Valuing the life of one animal over another. By serving one animal on a plate but valuing the animal in the cage because it might go extinct is the problem. That animal might have its habitat intact if we valued all life. By valuing only some life, we devalue it. We are the threat. The only way to solve the problem is not by building a zoo. It is by actually valuing animals, not just some animals, but all of them.
Close this Animal Prison. Children are not going to learn much from an animal in an artificial habit other than putting profit and entertainment over an animals right to be free just like us.
Great talent, love his stories, just wish people would understand that many folks come to hear HIM sing and talk. I get it that some people identify with the lyrics and such, but I didn't spend money to hear the drunk next to me spew every third word to a song as if he was the performer... please, please, please, do a PSA on this subject. I wouldn't go to a comedy club and finish the joke nor recite the lines at a play... sure, some choruses seem to beg the sing a long, but every verse? every third word? ugh....
I think we should close the Zoo and set a example to the world, That animals need to be free. The education for children should be one of animal sentience.
"The assumption that animals are without rights and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance is a positively outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion is the only guarantee of morality." Arthur Schopenhauer
"We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals. Animals suffer as much as we do. True humanity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them. It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it. Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace." Albert Schweitzer
What is the long term plan for the zoo? If they can't expand at Seneca Park, maybe a long term plan to move the zoo back to Durand Eastman Park where there's tons of room.
I went on a field trip to the Seneca Park Zoo when I was in elementary school. I don't remember anything about the animals. But I do recall how great it felt not being cooped up in a classroom.
Totally agree with Frank. We need to stop preserving specimens and start saving habitats. The specimens found in zoos are very poor representations of the species. In order to survive in captivity, they need to possess behavioral attributes (lack of aggression, adaptable to non-native climates and diets ) usually at odds with the attributes that would make them best suited for survival in their natural habitat. A generation or two on captivity and you don't even really have a specimen of that species any more. In nature, these organisms are creating and maintaining our life support system. In captivity, they are feeding a foolish worldview for humans who'd rather have someplace to take the kids on Sunday than actually securing their kids' future.
I remember our efforts to stop that loony idea back in the day: "The county's 2001 plan initially called for the zoo to expand into the Frederick Law Olmsted-designed portion of the park." Rochester needed a world-class zoo like a fish needs a bicycle.
This new zoo idea seems less ambitious, but still why do we need zoos in the first place? They are a medieval entertainment frivolity that constantly needs to justify themselves in the modern world. When you take wildlife, those creatures who helped define their/our environment, and stick them in a zoo, they become mere living artifacts.
What is a polar bear without the Arctic? Why are we trying to save species that will never be able to return to their environment because Climate Change is changing that environment, maybe forever? Why isn't a nature program as educational as caging animals in prisons, where these creatures are totally out of their element? At least a nature program can connect the dots between wildlife and their environment in situ.
Why don't we put our efforts into saving the Arctic (which is disappearing very quickly) and many other environments around the world that are in extreme danger—which is to say ecologies that are integral parts of our life support system?
Why can't field conservation work be done via the DEC supported by tax dollars instead of the DEC getting funding by folks paying for licenses to kill and fish our wildlife? We are at a crucial point in saving wildlife, as Climate Change is changing our wildlife's environment many times faster than they can adapt and the answer is not bigger and better zoos.
Should tax dollars go to medieval torture chambers or for actually helping those creatures who defined our environment so they can continue to do so?

GREAT review. Thanks for covering Rochester independent theater.
As with most government programs, some will save, while others will end up footing the bill. Welcome to NY.
Residency Restriction laws DO NOT WORK. There is ample evidence that they actually increase the likelihood of reoffense. But why bother basing laws on evidence when there are millions of dollars to be made? Parents For Megan's Flaw is already raking in a million a year in Suffolk County, and they are pushing this bill in hopes of getting more bids to make more money for their victim industry group. What's the price of saving this mythical one child? in Suffolk County, one million dollars.

Agencies that haven't adopted shared services and begun the moving of data centers are "going to get reamed," said Tom Davis, the former chairman of the House Government Reform Committee, speaking to an audience of federal IT managers.
"Innovation is key," Davis said at satellite telecommunications provider Hughes Government's June 16 technology summit, titled "Meeting the Network Needs of Tomorrow with the Budgets of Today."
Davis, who chaired the committee from 2003 to 2007 -- before Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) added "oversight" to its name and mission -- said he did not see an end to the nagging federal budget problems and sequestration cuts anytime soon. The era of temporary funding through congressional continuing resolutions is just beginning, he predicted, and federal IT managers must learn how to survive in the new reality.
"Politicians aren't coming to the rescue" of IT managers expecting to get firm funding for their projects in the coming years, he warned.
"In private industry, IT is an investment," Davis explained. But "in government, it's a line item" -- vulnerable to the blunt federal budget axe.
Small agency fixes, such as cutting contracting costs or moving personnel around won't help, said Davis, who now is director of government relations at Deloitte.
"Agency heads are in denial…They're not making the big decisions that are required. You have to adapt. Companies have to change their business models. Agencies have to change their spending models."
Changing spending models is very much on Mary Davie's mind. In her remarks to the conference, Davie, assistant commissioner of the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service, pointed to GSA's new uniformly priced packages of wireless services for federal users as one of her agency's many efforts to more effectively track costs and reduce multiple contracts.
GSA and Davie have said the program will save $300 million over five years and as an expected $1 billion moves through it. "Agencies have said this will be their vehicle when they transition out" of old wireless contracts, she said.
GSA's effort to transition federal agencies further into cloud service is progressing as well, she said. According to Davie, GSA is moving to become a cloud broker in which it becomes the source of cloud solutions for federal agencies. Although the move would provide a clearer path for cloud migration for the government, her agency is still working through the idea's implications. GSA's initial cloud broker RFI, she added, drew thousands of pages of response.
"'Cloud broker' is confusing," Davie admitted. "Is it an integrator, government or industry?"

" "In private industry, IT is an investment," Davis explained. But "in government, it's a line item" -- vulnerable to the blunt federal budget axe. "
This is not new. Political leaders look to reduce the budget for a critical services but expect the same level of performance. In the case of IT, they expect higher and higher levels of performance due to constant changes and innovation in today's IT environment. Politicians will always claim excesses as the need and that the cuts will 'balance out', but the bottom line is that budget cuts, without regard to how missions are to be acheived, put agencies in jeporady

Oscar-nominated actress Quvenzhané Wallis roared forth a couple of years ago in the offbeat Beasts of the Southern Wild, but now she's going for a classic in a new film version of one of the most popular Broadway musicals of all time: Annie. In a new trailer, she sings, she dances, she hangs out with Jamie Foxx and Rose Byrne, and she tries to escape the mean clutches of Cameron Diaz.

I used this strain for an American Wheat. I chose it because it is supposed to have a bit of a tart flavor, which is what I wanted for this beer. My primary fermentation temp was 62 degrees. I got a bit of sulfur (which is normal for this strain) but that dissipated after a couple of weeks. But there is no discernible tart flavor. So did I ferment too cool? Would I get more of the tartness if I fermented up around 65 or a little higher? Or will the tart flavor come through if I give it more time?
Any one with experience with this yeast?
I started my Amer Wheat at around 65 and then upped it to about 68-70 to finish it off. Sample I took had a very nice flavor, mildy tart.
With an advertised temp range of the below, I'd say shoot for 72F next time and get into flavor country!
Temperature Range: 58-74° F (14-23° C)
Update: Throughout primary fermentation and right up until bottling, the results from this yeast were very clean with no discernable tart flavor and very little ester. But after two weeks in the bottle, there was a clear, if slightly subtle, tartness to this beer. Not strong, but a flavor that balanced the other flavors in the beer nicely. It turned out really well actually. I think the carbonation helped bring out some of the flavors that didn't come through before bottling. And now that the beer has been in the bottle for 4-5 weeks, the esters have really started coming out. At this point, the beer (what is left of it at least which isn't much) has a distinctly fruity profile. So, the flavors I wanted were in there. I just needed to be more patient.

Wason Wanichakorn, Associated Press
BANGKOK — A few years ago, Suthep Thaugsuban was a suit-and-tie wearing deputy prime minister of Thailand and a senior executive of the country's oldest political party.
Now, the 64-year-old career politician has ditched his office attire, distanced himself from the opposition Democrat Party and found a new calling as a street fighter.
Suthep is the mastermind of Thailand's latest round of street protests and has vowed to topple Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra by taking over every government ministry. After storming the Finance Ministry earlier this week and camping there two nights, Suthep led protesters for a fourth day Wednesday in what he calls a people's power uprising.
Whistle-blowing throngs massed inside or around at least six of the government's 19 ministries, although they left half of them after a few hours. One large group led by Suthep entered a sprawling government office complex that houses the Department of Special Investigations, the country's equivalent of the FBI, and prepared to camp there overnight.
"We like peaceful methods," Suthep told reporters, his voice hoarse from speaking above the crowd's roar. But he added, "If we don't succeed, then I am prepared to die in the battlefield."
"The people will quit only when the state power is in their hands," he said. "There will be no negotiation."
The brash threat is the boldest challenge yet to Yingluck's embattled administration, and it has raised fears of fresh political violence in the divided Southeast Asian nation.
Yingluck has repeatedly said she wants to avert violence and offered to negotiate an end to the crisis. So far, security forces have not even fired tear gas to prevent protesters from forcing the closure of multiple government offices. A warrant was issued for Suthep's arrest, but he has ignored it.
"We must not regard this as a win-or-lose situation," Yingluck told reporters at Parliament. "Today no one is winning or losing, only the country is hurting."
Protesters want Yingluck to step down amid claims she is a proxy for her brother, billionaire former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in a 2006 military coup but remains central to Thailand's long-running political crisis. Thaksin lives overseas to avoid a corruption conviction that he says was politically motivated.
In broad terms, Thailand's political crisis pits Thailand's elite and the educated middle-class against Thaksin's power base in the countryside, which benefited from populist policies designed to win them over. Thaksin's party is the most successful in modern Thai political history. He became the only prime minister to serve out a full term, and Thaksin or his allies have won every election since 2001. The Democrats were crushed by Yingluck's ruling party during the election that brought her to power in 2011.
On Sunday, more than 100,000 demonstrators took to Bangkok's streets for the largest rally in years, uniting against what they call the "Thaksin regime." The crowds Wednesday were far lower — in the tens of thousands — indicating that Suthep is unlikely to meet his goal of bringing down the government this week without more popular support, or judicial or military intervention.
But Suthep has proven a few things during his time in the street. Notably that he is tenacious and unpredictable.
Before becoming a protest leader, Suthep was the man assigned to deal with unruly anti-government protesters when the Democrats were in power.

One sees and yet fails to see them. To the casual tourist they are not out of place but part of the heritage – the graffiti on the wall, the inappropriate signage, the vegetation protruding out of the stucco work. But to the trained eye they stand out like porcupine quills.
Yes, the rundown look is the bane of most monuments. But when an international agency is poring over them with microscopes, you can't take chances with the appearance. That's the big dilemma facing the State administration. It simply can't brush under the carpet, warts and all.
The three Qutb Shahi monuments posed for UNESCO nomination have a host of issues that can seriously hamper their selection for world heritage status. Hyderabad's popular icon, Charminar, the royal necropolis, Qutb Shahi Tombs, and the Golconda Fort are beset with problems which need immediate attention. The city will be in a good position to qualify for the UNESCO nomination if it can attend to the glaring glitches before August - in time for evaluation by the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) Mission. The authorities have identified a series of works requiring coordinated action from the GHMC, ASI, Department of Archaeology and Museums. "We will take up removal of encroachments and other repair work during March/April by involving all departments and local legislators", says P. Chenna Reddy, director, Department of Archaeology and Museums.
According to conservation archaeologists there are several things at these historical structures which are an 'eyesore' to the visual integrity of the precinct. For instance, at the foot of Charminar there is Bhagyalakshmi temple and a dargah which are extending beyond the shrine limit.
The canopy atop the temple and sintex water tanks below do not gel with the monument. Authorities feel the ASI should talk to the temple management on the matter. Till recently, a washbasin could be seen attached to the Charminar jali with water flowing all over. Now it has been removed. The signage within the monument lacks design consistency and the ticket office at the entrance looks out of place.
While the fountain at Gulzar Houz is full of trash, the Charkaman arch comes handy for display of advertisements. A transformer close to Nanakram Bhagwandas College arch mars the imposing Patherghatti arcade.
Encroachments all over
The same story of neglect and disfigurement continues at Golconda Fort. One can see a large number of new settlements coming up within the 100 metres prohibited area of the monument. There is also unbridled commercial activity at the entrance of the fort. The status of the golf course needs to be clarified. Inside the fort, the amenities for visitors in terms of water stations, food stalls, toilets leave a lot to be desired. The design of these facilities requires upgradation. The signage present same design inconsistency and so are the dustbins. Authorities have taken note of the Kali temple inside the fort as it is extending beyond the shrine.
The situation is no better at the 16{+t}{+h} century Qutb Shahi Tombs. New additions like fountains, grills and landscape are considered inappropriate. While the old signage is good enough the new information sign design lacks consistency. Conservationists feel the canteen needs to be better designed along international standards. Graffiti on the walls of the veranda and tombs presents an ugly look
These sore points need to be addressed at the earliest and in a manner that meets the ICOMOS approval. What the UNESCO looks at is proven effort by the government to restore and preserve the original architecture. After all, the state of the city and its heritage is a reflection of its people.
