'The Cabinet has cleared the setting up of Equal Opportunities Commission'
Union Minister for Minority Affairs K. Rahman Khan claimed that his Ministry was holding periodic review meetings with other Ministries and Departments concerned to monitor the progress in the implementation of the Sachar Committee report.
Inaugurating a talk on "A Karnataka perspective of Sachar Committee Recommendations & the role of advocacy" by committee Mr. M. A. Basith here on Sunday, Mr Khan said that the Cabinet has just cleared the setting up of Equal Opportunities Commission which envisages the coverage of deprived groups belonging to minorities in the government sector. According to a statement by the Bangalore Friday Forum which organised the talk, Mr. Khan also said the National Waqf Development Corporation (NAWADCO), which was established in January 2014 with corpus of Rs.500 crore, would assist States and provide both financial and technical support to the Muslim community by developing Waqf properties for educational empowerment.
He said the Waqf properties put in place world class facilities such as Universities, health care and convention centres. He also highlighted the significance of the role of advocacy in the successful implementation of Sachar recommendations in Karnataka.

We're very glad to announce a new update for the Power BI Preview. This month's update includes new features and improvements, addresses a number of bugs, and implements other enhancements to the performance and stability of the Power BI service.
This update includes the following new features and improvements:
You can try these features out now in the service, or read below for more details.
The GitHub dashboard has several improvements including:
The SendGrid dashboards and reports also have a new updated layout and new charts to help gain better insights.
In this update, we are providing you even more ways to use treemaps with your data. When you type questions in the question box, you can now add the phrase 'as treemap' to the end of your question to graph the data as a treemap.
In addition, treemaps can now be pinned to your dashboard. When you click the pin button from either Q&A or reports…
… the treemap will be added to your dashboard.
As with every update, we've also fixed lots of bugs and issues reported by many of you through the Contact Support option in the service. We encourage you to continue sending us feedback about the product and reporting any issues that you may find while working with Power BI.
We hope that you enjoy this update. Stay tuned for more updates coming soon…

Try what's coming next for Power BI!
We're very glad to announce a new update for the Power BI Designer Preview. This month's update includes new features and improvements across all major areas in the product: connectors, transformations, modeling and reports. We have also addressed lots of bugs and improved performance and stability of the Power BI Designer.
These update includes the following new features:
You can see these features in action in the following video, or read below for more details.
The first item on the list is a new connector to import data from Google Analytics. We're adding this connector not only to the Power BI Designer, but soon also to the Power BI Dashboards service. Stay tuned for upcoming service update announcements that will bring this feature.
In the Power BI Designer, this connector can be found in the "Get Data" dialog, under "Other Sources" category (or "All").
After signing in with a Google Analytics account, users will be able to browse analytics data for all sites registered with the account. Users can pick dimensions and measures in the Navigator dialog to construct a single-table output.
Users can see the table output preview building up as they select items in the Navigator tree.
Finally, they can click Load to land the entire dataset directly in the Report view, or select Edit to land a small sample of the data in the Query view.
In the Report view, users can directly start building visualizations for this data. In the Query view, they will be able to apply several data transformations based on preview data that will run against the underlying service, and they can also leverage special operations available only to Multi-Dimensional sources, such as Add or Remove items.
There are lots of interesting analytics scenarios that open up with this new connector. Think about all other data sources supported in the PBI Designer and how easy it is now to combine data from any of them with Google Analytics data to build Power BI reports.
We have added a few additional filter options for Date/Time columns in the Query view:
- Is in Year to Date.
- Today
- This Week
- This Month
- This Quarter
These options show up under the respective dropdown menu in DateTime Filters.
Note that all of these filters are dynamically calculated, so for instance, "Year to Date" means between Jan 1st 2015 & March 25th 2015 today, but it will mean a different Year and Date when we refresh our query or report in the future.
In this update, we are adding automatic relationship detection for tables loaded in the model. We're applying this detection in the following cases:
- Initial load of the table to the model.
- Refresh
- Auto-Detect button.
This is a very powerful feature, which is now also enabled automatically and will allow users to correlate data from different tables and build rich visualizations without having to worry about manually defining these relationships. This relationship detection works for all data sources supported in the Power BI Designer that do not have an underlying schema (such as Text, CSV, Web, HDFS, etc.).
You can learn more about how to create and manage relationships in the Designer by reading this Help article.
The "Add Relationship" or "Edit Relationship" dialog has been improved to include inline previews of the tables/columns being selected.
Within the "Manage Relationships" dialog, we can click "Add Relationship"… The dialog now gives us two table/column selectors with inline previews of data. This enables us to easily identify which tables/columns to use for the new relationship.
Last but certainly not least… We're adding the ability to reorder pages in the Report by drag & dropping within the Report Pages pane… This will definitely make it much easier for you to iterate on the content of your reports and move it around as needed.
We have improved performance for loading queries that do not contain any filters or transformations by ~40-50%. You should see such queries take half of the time to load or less, compared to last month's Designer bits.
As with every update, we've also fixed lots of bugs and issues reported by many of you via "Send a Frown". We encourage you to continue sending us feedback about the product and reporting any issues that you may find while working with the Power BI Designer.

China continues to be the leading market for Australian services exports, worth $7.5 billion in 2013-14; a figure Minister for Trade and Investment Andrew Robb says will only increase as businesses capitalise on opportunities created through our recently concluded Free Trade Agreement.
Figures released today by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade show that as overall services exports rose more than 7 per cent to $57.4 billion, services exports to China grew more than 11 per cent.
"The services outcomes in the Free Trade Agreements we've secured with China, Japan and Korea are exceptional; they guarantee new levels of access to these significant markets," Mr Robb said. (more)

Media release

Opening Tourism Australia's inaugural Destination Australia Conference, Minister for Trade and Investment Andrew Robb, said that tourism can be the fastest growing sector in Australia this decade but it would require "vision, courage and a huge injection of capital".
Mr Robb, the minister responsible for tourism, said: "It is a bold but attainable ambition due to the never-to-be-repeated phenomenon going on in the region around us. Tourism is already our largest services export."
"Last year, 100 million Chinese went on an international holiday. The Chinese tell me that by 2020 this is set to double to some 200 million. So the opportunities are immense but they will not fall into our laps." (more)

Robb strongly rejects TPP scaremongering
Media Release
3 March 2015
Minister for Trade and Investment Andrew Robb strongly rejects claims that Australia would sign up to a trade agreement that would drive up the costs of medicines and undermine public health.
Mr Robb described a story carried by Fairfax newspapers today – which is dubiously based on supposed "leaked texts of draft chapters" of Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP) negotiations – as "another beat up".
"As I have made clear repeatedly, the government will not support outcomes that would increase the prices of medicines for Australians or adversely affect our health system more generally; end of story," he said. "Nor would we accept outcomes that undermine our ability to regulate or legislate in the public interest in areas such as health," Mr Robb said. (more)

25 February 2015
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has today published a new report: Australia's Trade by State and Territory 2013-14 which provides a complete statistical guide to exports and imports of goods and services for each state and territory.
South Australia's rate of trade growth stood out in 2013-14, with export and import volumes up 9.3 per cent and 6.7 per cent respectively on the previous year. Export volumes also grew from Western Australia (up 7.4 per cent), Queensland (up 4.7 per cent), Victoria (up 1.9 per cent) and New South Wales and the Northern Territory (both up 0.8 per cent). Offsetting these rises were falls in export volumes from Tasmania (down 13.7 per cent) and the Australian Capital Territory (down 9.6 per cent). (more)
Celebrating 50 years of DFAT's Composition of Trade publication
Media release
25 February 2015
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has today published the 2013-14 edition of Composition of Trade Australia. This special edition marks the publication's 50th anniversary and includes the article – Fifty years of Australia's trade – analysing the changes in the composition of Australia's trade from 1963-64 to today. It explores the overall trends and growth of exports and imports, and the shifts in the countries we trade with and the commodities we trade.
Our trade has changed over time. Fifty years ago the United Kingdom was Australia's largest merchandise export destination. In the mid-1960s Japan became our principal merchandise export destination and held this top spot for 43 years. Today China is our largest merchandise export destination having taken top position in 2009-10.(more)
Tourism and Hospitality–A Tidal Wave of Opportunity
Tourism and Transport Forum (TTF), Melbourne
19 February 2015
There is a never-to-be-repeated phenomenon going on in the region around us.
The OECD estimates that by 2035-2045 the Asian middle class – from India through to China – will surge from its current 600 million people to 3 billion.
Not in 100 years, not in 50 years, but within 20 to 30 years.
It is an economic and humanitarian miracle; and it is unfolding on our doorstep.
The UN tells us that by 2020, half of the world's middle class will be living in Asia.
This means half the world's middle class will be a direct flight away from Australia. (more)

05 Jan 2013 15:50 GMT | Sport, Tennis, China, Mauritius
Serena Williams proved the break between seasons hasn't hurt her momentum, capturing her 47th career title with a comprehensive 6-2, 6-1 victory over Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova on Saturday in the Brisbane International final.Williams has won 35 of her past 36 matches, including titles at Wimbledon, the Olympics, the U.S. Open, the season-ending championship and now the first event of 2013.She already has won the Australian Open five times, and with the season's first major a little more than a week away, she's in good shape to add another one.The Brisbane final was all over in 50 minutes on Saturday night, with Williams dictating terms from the first break of serve in the sixth game.
"I always feel like I don't know how to play tennis when I play against you"
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova
"I always feel like I don't know how to play tennis when I play against you," Pavlyuchenkova told Williams at the trophy presentation.
The pair had travelled together on a training trip to Mauritius in the offseason but didn't really hit against each other at the time."But this was true what I said," the No. 36-ranked Pavlyuchenkova, who has won 3 WTA Tour titles and more than $2.8 million in prize money, later said of her post-match assessment.
"When she's on fire, well I feel like there is not much I can do. I mean, she's a great player and she deserves to win."Williams said she's been concentrating on being calm and composed, and has started to feel 'serene' when she's in her zone on court. She's been feeling that way a lot in the amazing comeback since her first-round exit at the French Open, her earliest ever loss at a Grand Slam event."I was looking at a lot of old matches on YouTube, and I feel like right now I'm playing some of my best tennis,'' the 15-time major winner said.
"I feel like I want to do better and play better still.''Pavlyuchenkova's post-match comment, she said, was "a great compliment and a great honour for someone of her caliber to feel that way.''Home win for Li Na
Top seed Li Na survived a mid-match meltdown to overcome Czech Klara Zakopalova 6-3 1-6 7-5 in the final of the inaugural Shenzhen Open on Saturday, earning the Chinese a seventh career title.World number seven Li, who won the 2011 French Open, looked in danger of disappointing the home fans after surrendering her serve in the first game of the deciding set.Li, who beat fellow Chinese Peng Shuai 6-4 6-0 in Friday's semi-finals, hit back to win five of the next six games but from 5-2 up allowed fifth seed Zakopalova to draw level at 5-5.In a topsy-turvy finish encapsulating the match, Li collected herself to put together two solid games and give her a boost ahead of the Australian Open, which begins on January 14.Li reached the final of the year's first grand slam in Melbourne in 2011 before going on to become China's first major singles champion in Paris. Saturday's victory was Li's second WTA title in China, following her breakthrough at Guangzhou in 2004 when she became the first Chinese winner on the women's tour.The $500,000 Shenzhen tournament became the third event in China on the WTA calendar for 2013 as tennis continues to expand in the country after Li's recent success.

'Breaking Bad's' Aaron Paul Was a Contestant on 'The Price Is Right' (Video)
Before becoming a TV star, the overly enthusiastic actor appeared on the CBS game show -- where he made it pretty far.
Before he was breaking bad, Aaron Paul was a contestant on The Price Is Right.
In a recent appearance on NBC's The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, the Breaking Bad star talked about his visit to the long-running game show 14 years ago, when Bob Barker was still the host.
PHOTOS: 'Breaking Bad': 20 Most Shocking Deaths
Paul, who attended a taping with his friends, got called down to "contestants' row," where the overly enthusiastic future TV star screamed: "You're the man, Bob!!!!! You're my idol!!!!!!"
Of his enthusiasm, Paul recalled to Leno: "I literally had six cans of Red Bull, obviously."
So how did he do?
Paul made it onto the stage -- after coming the closest to the price of a desk -- where he continued yelling about how much he loved Barker.
"Wow, I look like I'm on meth," the actor quipped to Leno before revealing that he had to leave the desk behind at his former apartment because it was too heavy to move.

He then advanced to the Showcase Showdown round, where he overbid on a prize package by only $132.
"I was depressed for many, many, many months," Paul said, before adding that one of his friends made it to the Showcase Showdown on another episode that taped the same day and made it up to Paul by taking him along on one of the trips he won.
Watch the video of Paul on The Price Is Right below.

Sears Craftsman GDO sensor not working when it's cold
(Originally posted at the end of another post)
I have a 12+ yr old Craftsman GDO, and the receiver sensor is now refusing to work when it's below freezing. The green light is off when it's cold (as others have posted here), the GDO light flases 10 times when trying to close, I've re-aimed it, checked the wires, etc. I tried warming the whole sensor on a 40w light bulb for a few minutes, and it worked temporarily, so I'm pretty sure it's the sensor. Has anyone tried to repair one? I've found the sensor pair for about $35 locally, but I can't believe the couple of transistors, capacitors, and the photosensor could wear out, could they? My best guess is maybe a bad solder joint? I disassembled the sensor and everything looks normal.
Here's a tip I tried for checking the beam sensors: Most cell phone cameras and some digital cameras can 'see' infrared (to some degree), so you can use them to find out which black box is the transmitter, and if it's working. In a fairly dark garage, I was able to see a pinpoint of light, coming from the transmitter, on my cell phone screen at about 10-12 feet, probably would have worked better if it had been completely dark. At 1 ft, it was clear it was transmitting. It probably does nothing for aiming the beam, but at least you can see if it's working or not.
Any ideas?
Upon troubleshooting my GDO sensor problem, I read that capacitors can wear out & are also affected by cold.
Re-soldering many of the connections didn't help. When left in the freezer and reconnected while frozen, the green light still wouldn't come on until it warmed up (above freezing). I tried warming the top of the largest capacitor (carefully!!!), and the green light came on when it warmed up.
I replaced the 470uf (microfarad) capacitor, the sensor survived the freezer, and worked immediately when hooked up, still good and frozen! I left the 10uf one alone, though I should probably have replaced it too. The part should be available at any electronic-parts store, should be under $1 I would guess.
One warning: be sure to observe POLARITY of the capacitor BEFORE you remove it. The circuit board on my sensor had a + for each of the two capacitors, and the capacitors themselves are marked with a stripe of - - - on the negative side. Also, make sure to get a capacitor that fits, my replacement was just a bit taller, but still fit fine.
I can't guarantee this will fix your problem, but it worked for my situation, and it's worth a shot to save the $35-$45 they want for replacement sensors.
Hope this helps!

Latest Paolo A. Nespoli Stories
ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst is set for a six-month stay on the International Space Station in 2014. His mission came one step closer today when the mission patch was revealed at the European Astronaut Centre during German Space Day in Cologne, Germany.
Are you following Andre Kuipers' mission through his blog, Twitter or Flickr? Astronauts are sharing the privilege of being in space with the people back at home via social media. Communication with space stations has not always been so easy.
ESA astronaut André Kuipers has installed 'NightPod' on the International Space Station, an aid for taking night-time pictures of Earth. The first batch of pictures offer stunning images of cities at night.
In space, astronauts learn to live and work in three dimensions. Now you can experience space with an extra dimension with ESA's collection of 3D images.
International space agencies announced on Wednesday that NASA and its partners plan to plunge the International Space Station (ISS) into the ocean at the end of its life cycle after 2020.
For the first time since his landing on Tuesday, ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli was again in the public eye yesterday at a press conference.
ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli's mother, Maria, passed away on Monday while he is still serving on the International Space Station.
After eight weeks of exercises and classroom activities, 4000 children from more than 25 cities worldwide are about to conclude their 'Mission X: Train Like an Astronaut' challenge that promotes healthy nutrition and regular exercise.
International Space Station residents Scott Kelly, Cady Coleman and Paolo Nespoli will speak on Tuesday, Jan 11, to 150 students from Kathleen High School's Central Florida Aerospace Academy (CFAA) in Lakeland, Fla.
The next spaceflight by a European astronaut is about to begin: ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli and his crewmates will be launched aboard a Soyuz spacecraft from Baikonur Cosmodrome on 15 December at 20:09 CET to the International Space Station.

The 1/2 ground turkey, 1/2 chopped veggie mixture that forms the meatball base not only cuts calories, it makes for a deliciously light meatball. Such a win-win, here. TIP: Double the recipe and freeze half for another night.

and entered Officers Candidate School, and graduated as a 2nd Lieutenant, serving as a company commander until his duty ended in 1959. After graduation from Youngstown University in 1963, he earned an M.B.A. from
New York University
(1964). After serving for several years as a department store executive in Ohio and New Jersey, he came to Southern California in 1977 as president of the Harris & Frank chain of clothing stores. He later co-owned several Super Cuts salons, and then became a franchisee of Thrifty Car Rental. In 1992 he purchased Valley Motor Center Auto Body, and up to the present time has owned three body shops in the San Fernando Valley.

He is also survived by his sister, Linda Gordon and brother-in-law, Hershel Gordon. Marsh was very active in both business and philanthropic pursuits. He most recently served as Vice-President of the Board of Jewish Free Loan Association and as a member of the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Jewish Home for the Aging, where he chaired the Ethics and Values Committee. He enjoyed golf, travel, and most especially, the company of his loving family and friends. In lieu of flowers, contributions in his memory may be made to the Los Angeles Jewish Home for the Aging or the Los Angeles Jewish Free Loan Association.

More often than not, when a patient presents to the office, it is for a pain complaint. Headache, neck pain, low back pain, sciatica, carpal tunnel... The pain is often the focus of the patient's mindset, and they don't often have any thought of what comes after the pain.

"Touching the Massage Today readers one letter at a time"
By Lynda Solien-Wolfe, LMT
Author's note: Welcome to my monthly column, DearLyndaLMT, where I answer questions from you, the readers. I have been blessed this past decade by working with many experts in the massage profession who will serve as resources, mixed with a touch of Dear Lynda's views and advice.So ask away with all those things you've wondered about but didn't know who to ask! I can't guarantee that all of your questions will be published, but I will do my best to answer you, or at least point you in the right direction.
Please remember, as with all advice, it is just that: advice. Always check to make sure that you're working within your scope of practice in your city/county and state. Please send your questions to or:
I recently had a fellow massage student tell me that when she works on people she knows to be HIV positive, she wears latex gloves to protect her from catching AIDS. Is this true? Should I wear gloves with clients?
-- Mary in New England
I am in the process of receiving my certification as a massage therapist, and am looking for information concerning massage for clients with sciatica. I would appreciate any help you could give me.
-- Kristin in the USA
I like doing Shiatsu on a mat, but my knees are starting to hurt after each session. Do you have any suggestions so I can keep doing the bodywork that I love?
-- Kimmy from San Francisco

2015 Cadillac ATS 3.6 Tested: A Thing of BeautyOctober 14, 2014 at 10:51 am by Tony Swan

2015 Toyota Sienna First Drive: The Swagger Wagon RefinedSeptember 22, 2014 at 12:01 am by Tony Swan
Freshened inside and out for 2015, the Toyota Sienna minivan is a versatile family vehicle, chockablock with brood-friendly features and refinements. It's also the only minivan that still offers an all-wheel-drive option. Beyond that, it also embodies Toyota's bedrock strengths: quality, durability, and reliability. READ MORE ››
2014 Nissan Juke NISMO RS Test: Amphibian Butt, HustlingSeptember 18, 2014 at 6:34 pm by Tony Swan
On this planet since 2010, the Nissan Juke is the poster child for nonconformist new-wave crossovers. The design looks strangely amphibian, or like something you might encounter while scuba diving a deep reef near the Bahamas. Or a thing to be served with drawn butter and a nice side salad. Polarizing, maybe, but guaranteed to attract attention. READ MORE ››
2015 Kia Sedona First Drive: Rear Doors Still Slide and Soccer Squads AbideSeptember 18, 2014 at 10:17 am by Tony Swan
Kia doesn't want you to think of its new Sedona as a minivan. Sure, it was a minivan in its previous generation. But now, according to Kia, it's a "multipurpose vehicle." It's interesting, this avoidance of the dreaded minivan label. Yes, the redesigned Sedona is a wee bit more bullish in the nose and slightly more brawny overall, exuding a utility persona—a "CUV-like design," according to Kia. But those sliding rear doors say "minivan" as clearly as they did in 1984, when the Dodge Caravan and the Plymouth Voyager ushered in a new era of all-around family usefulness. Call it whatever you want, folks will know what it is—a roomy, generously equipped minivan, one which offers a wide range of features and a high level of comfort. READ MORE ››
2015 Kia Soul EV First Drive: Kia's Electrified Sensitive SideSeptember 17, 2014 at 4:30 pm by Tony Swan
Kia calls the Soul a UPV—Urban Passenger Vehicle—a classification that's particularly apt for the new EV version, the brand's first zero-emissions offering. With a fully charged battery pack, the car earns an EPA operating range of 93 miles, but that still means sightings of electric Souls beyond city limits will be extremely rare. READ MORE ››

The Toyota RAV4 has scored consistently good marks in the areas of utility, all-around usefulness, fuel efficiency, comfort, quality, and value ever since it became the progenitor of the small, car-based crossover species in 1996. But an engaging driving experience isn't something we would necessarily add to the list of the diminutive Toyota's defining characteristics. READ MORE ››
2015 Cadillac Escalade AWD Tested: More Money and More CompellingAugust 26, 2014 at 6:32 pm by Tony Swan
Cadillac has never shied away from size and mass. As early as 1930, there were Cadillacs that weighed more than three tons—and those were cars. Cadillac trucks wouldn't be along for another seven decades. In the '30s, Cadillac propelled its biggest classics-to-be with V-12 and even V-16 engines. You could time a zero-to-60-mph run with an alarm clock, but that was about as good as it got unless you wanted to pop for a Duesenberg. READ MORE ››

First Day of Time Travel
Without much time to spare, Liz and I have charged our phones/tablets, jotted down the address of our first hostel, and appropriately sought out sushi during our layover here at *drum roll* the Narita airport in Tokyo! We are currently sitting like kindergarteners on the floor of our terminal, happily filling ourselves with to-go sushi ...
3 blondes in a sea of Asians
... After yesterdays wet feet situation, there was no way I could continue traveling Japan without warm feet. They were only 2900Y ($30) for a pair of knock off black uggs! Sweet deal in my mind!
We then moved onto the Imperial Palace. The sun was shining, the water in the river was glistening, and hmm it seems to be very busy around the Palace today! We weren't sure if it was a normal day at the Palace and if that's how many ...
... I am going to get some. -There are so many things I am tasting and seeing that I would love for everyone back home to try and experience, but unfortunately, I won't be returning home until the end of the year. I want to bring Japan to all of you, honestly one of the best places I have traveled. It beats Europe hands down!- We meandered back to the train station, hopped on and ventured back to Kyoto, from there we made our way to Nishiki Market which is located in the hub of down town ...
Family fun!
... dancing robot, enjoyed the Japanese food, shrines and gardens. Not forgetting of course being filmed at a traditional tea ceremony at the Okura hotel and being broadcast on live Japanese TV!! Again an amazing and unforgettable visit which we will always remember! Wow!! Nearly 4 weeks of visitors.....spending time traveling, eating, drinking, entertaining and of course acting as the perfect tour guide!!! Am only just recovering ...
Temples, towers & trinkets.
... The owners were definately compulsive hoarders!
I did however find a small ?cast iron bowl (its heavy for it size) with a worn Buddhist picture depicted on it. It looks and feels old and its beautiful. I feel very lucky to have found it. My incense sticks will look lovely sitting inside it.
Today is sadly our last day to explore Tokyo, but over the last few days we have seen so much. We finish off our holiday tomorrow with a day in Tokyo Disneyland! Its got to be done!
