CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - Media reports are filled with the story of the Chinese baby boy who was rescued by firefighters from a sewer pipe in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province.His parents tried to flush him down the toilet because they did not want him.
The little boy weighs six pounds. The placenta was still attached to his body when he was rescued by firefighters.
They received a call from neighbors who heard a child crying in the sewer pipe attached to a public toilet in a Chinese apartment complex. His foot was visible. Due to the hard work of the rescue workers and the medical personnel, the little boy has survived.
However, other children just like him are abandoned after birth in China. This modern practice of infant exposure is rarely reported. The Chinese regime is also known for its forced abortion policies. I wrote about last year here.
The treatment of children as commodities in China, products to be accumulated only with the permission of the Central Government, seems horribly unjust to western observers, and rightly so. However, at its root, is it really all that different than the current abortion culture of the West?
In the West, the Regime does not issue a permit allowing a couple to conceive. Instead the so called abortion right, created out of whole cloth by unelected Judges, is now enforced by the Police Power of the State.
This unjust civil law violates the Natural Law Right to Life of every child and allows the parents to secure the services of a medical professional to take their life in the womb for any reason, up to and including the ninth month of pregnancy, if he or she is not wanted. The costs will soon be covered by Obamacare.
This intentional killing of the child can be done through any number of means from dismemberment, to suction or chemical weapons which are administered in utero. The brutality of these procedures is hidden behind the wall of the womb, once the safest place on earth.
Just this month a jury handed down a guilty verdict in the finally much publicized trial of the abortionist Kermit Gosnell who killed children after they were born in his house of horrors in Philadelphia, PA.
He murdered those children by what he called snipping, severing their spinal cord with surgical scissors which he inserted into the back of their necks. Testimony revealed that he did this to hundreds of other children. He kept their parts in jars and freezers.
Initially, there was a blackout on the Gosnell trial in the main stream media. Most of the American media has denied the truth about what happens in every procured abortion for so long that even this obvious example of infanticide outside of the womb did not seem important to report.
The defenders of the Right to Life in the United States exposed the bias of the media through the use of alternative media sources. In the gruesome testimony and graphic evidence presented at trial, what happens in every procured abortion was made clear. It is no different than what happens in China.
Both incidents reveal that the practice of infant exposure has returned. The term refers to killing children who are not wanted by exposing them to the elements. It was practiced in other dark times in history. As Christians, we need to understand our history. We have been here before. We are sent into cultures of death to transform them from within.
There is an ancient Christian manuscript entitled The Letter to Diognetus from the second century. It contains insights on the way the early Christians viewed their relationship to the culture of their age. It was addressed to an anonymous inquirer into the Christian faith. Its importance is underscored in by the fact that it was favored by the Fathers of the Second Vatican Council and has been quoted quite often since then.
The letter offers a foundation for explaining the role of the Church in the Modern world. It is cited in the Catechism of the Catholic Church in its excellent treatment of the duties of citizenship (CCC 2234-2246). It is regularly referred to in social encyclicals.
It demonstrates that the conditions which we face as Christians at the beginning of the Third Christian Millennium are not that different than those faced by our brothers and sisters as they were called to transform the cultures of the First Millennium.
This is very important to know. There is a tendency among Christians to forget our history. Among the practices the early Christians opposed were primitive forms of abortion and infant exposure. The letter recounts this concerning the lifestyle of the Christians of those days:
Christians are indistinguishable from other men either by nationality, language or customs. They do not inhabit separate cities of their own, or speak a strange dialect, or follow some outlandish way of life. Their teaching is not based upon reveries inspired by the curiosity of men.
And yet there is something extraordinary about their lives. They live in their own countries as though they were only passing through. They play their full role as citizens, but labor under all the disabilities of aliens.
Any country can be their homeland, but for them their homeland, wherever it may be, is a foreign country. Like others, they marry and have children, but they do not expose them. They share their meals, but not their wives. They live in the flesh, but they are not governed by the desires of the flesh.
They pass their days upon earth, but they are citizens of heaven. Obedient to the laws, they yet live on a level that transcends the law. Christians love all men, but all men persecute them. Condemned because they are not understood, they are put to death, but raised to life again.
They live in poverty, but enrich many; they are totally destitute, but possess an abundance of everything. They suffer dishonor, but that is their glory. They are defamed, but vindicated. A blessing is their answer to abuse, deference their response to insult. To speak in general terms, we may say that the Christian is to the world what the soul is to the body.
I have often heard contemporary western Christians opine that we are living in a post-Christian or even a post-modernist age. I choose to use a different language. We are living in a pre-Christian age. We are living in a new missionary age.
Whether in China or in the United States of America, the practice of infant exposure has returned.
We must expose it, oppose it and propose a new way of living to a world which has lost its soul and is dying. Before they were called Christians in Antioch (Acts 11:26) the early followers of Jesus Christ were referred to as the Way.
In recounting his own conversion the Apostle Paul writes of having persecuted this Way (Acts 22: 3-16) prior to his encounter with the Risen Lord on the Road to Damascus. This expression the Way reveals a profoundly important aspect of the understanding of the early Christians concerning their identity and mission.
They believed that the Christian faith demanded a new way of living in the midst of the world. It still does. Do we understand this? Do we live differently? Are we willing to be persecuted for doing so like the early Christians?
The Chinese baby saved from the sewer pipe and the infanticide of Kermit Gosnell point us toward our mission in this hour. We need to implore the Lord for the grace we need in the days ahead to live it out courageously. We need to study our past and pave the way to the future. We need to learn to stand together - we will need one another.

The Corcoran School of the Arts and Design and the Art and the Book program cordially invite you to the launch of An Exquisite Future, the fifth annual collaborative artist's book by Art and the Book graduate students. Please join us!
An Exquisite Future explores the implications of a future with a reduced population of honeybees. A vital pollinator of many types of food plants for humans and animals, honeybees are in danger of disappearing because of colony collapse disorder. The artists used this phenomenon as a starting point for contemplating the future. Each artist responded to the preceding vision, building on what came before and using humor while considering potential difficulties.

On October 22, 2014, Institutional Shareholder Services issued a note to clients entitled "The IRR of 'No'." The note argues that shareholders of companies that have successfully "just said no" to hostile takeover bids have incurred "profoundly negative" returns. In a note we issued the same day, we called attention to critical methodological and analytical flaws that completely undermine the ISS conclusion. Others have also rejected the ISS methodology and conclusions; see, for example, the November analysis by Dr. Yvan Allaire's Institute for Governance of Public and Private Organizations entitled "The Value of 'Just Say No'" and, more generally, a December paper by James Montier entitled "The World's Dumbest Idea." Of course, even putting aside analytical flaws, statistical studies do not provide a basis in individual cases to attack informed board discretion in the face of a dynamic business environment. The debate about "just say no" has been raging for the 35 years since Lipton published "Takeover Bids in the Target's Boardroom," 35 Business Lawyer p.101 (1979). This prompts looking at the most prominent 1979 "just say no" rejection of a takeover.

The Allergan Aftermath
Valeant's failed acquisition bid for Allergan has underscored longstanding M&A principles—even as the involvement of shareholder activists in the M&A arena has introduced new technologies, opportunities, and challenges. In the aftermath of the Allergan saga, it is clear that Pershing Square was richly rewarded for having crafted a novel bidder-activist collaboration model. The outcome for Valeant, however, notwithstanding the creative collaboration, is that its bid ultimately failed, and in the most conventional of ways (losing to a superior offer from an alternative bidder).
The Future of the Bidder-Activist Collaboration Model
On November 17, 2014, Allergan, Inc. announced a $66 billion merger agreement with Actavis plc, thwarting the pending $53 billion bid for Allergan by Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc. Valeant had teamed up with Pershing Square, a fund run by activist investor Bill Ackman, to facilitate an acquisition of Allergan by Valeant. Although the Valeant bid has failed, Pershing Square apparently will recognize a gain of well over $2 billion on consummation of the Actavis merger.
The distinguishing feature of Valeant's now-failed pursuit of Allergan was the bidder-activist collaboration itself, which was the focal point for public attention throughout the saga. Corporate America's initial reaction to the Pershing Square-Valeant model was fear that the model would be followed by others, unleashing a new wave of hostile takeover activity in a context that appears to make target companies particularly vulnerable. Now, at the end-point of Valeant's bid for Allergan, we note the following:

Illinois Court Approves Single-Bidder Sale Strategy
The Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois yesterday [October 2, 2014] confirmed that a Delaware board may employ a single-bidder process in a cash sale governed by the Revlon standard. Keating v. Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., No. 11-CH-28854 (Ill. Cir. Ct. Ch. Div. Oct. 2, 2014).
The case arose from the 2011 transaction in which Google acquired Motorola Mobility for $40 per share in cash. The transaction elicited the now-conventional multiforum litigation in both Delaware (Motorola Mobility's place of incorporation) and Illinois (its principal place of business). But the stockholder plaintiffs in Delaware dismissed their case and so only the Illinois action proceeded. Even though the merger price represented a 63% premium for Motorola Mobility's shares and over 99% of the Motorola Mobility shares voting approved the merger, these plaintiffs attacked the deal, principally on the ground that the Motorola Mobility board should have conducted a broad auction rather than confidentially negotiate the deal with Google.

Two New Cases Cast a Shadow Over Credit Bidding
Two recent bankruptcy court decisions have increased uncertainty over the right of secured creditors to credit bid in sales of debtors' assets. Relying on and expanding a rarely used "for cause" limitation on a secured creditor's right to credit bid under §363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, these decisions may ultimately affect credit bidding rights in a broad swath of cases.

Corporate Takeovers and Economic Efficiency
In the paper, Corporate Takeovers and Economic Efficiency, written for the Annual Review of Financial Economics, I review recent takeover research which advances our understanding of the role of M&A in the drive for productive efficiency. Much of this research places takeovers in the context of industrial organization, tracing with unprecedented level of detail "who buys who" up and down the supply chain and within industrial networks. I also review recent research testing the rationality of the bidding process, including whether the sales mechanism promotes a transfer of control of the target resources to the most efficient buyer. This literature draws on auction theory to describe optimal bidding strategies and it uses sophisticated econometric techniques to generate counterfactuals, exogenous variation, and causality. The review is necessarily selective, with an emphasis on the most recent contributions: half of the referenced articles were drafted or published within the past five years.

A New Takeover Threat: Symbiotic Activism
The Pershing Square-Valeant hostile bid for Allergan has captured the imagination. Other companies are wondering whether they too will wake up one morning to find a raider-activist tag-team wielding a stealth block of their stock. Serial acquirers are asking whether they should be looking to take advantage of this new maneuver. Speculation and rumor abound of other raider-activist pairings and other targets.
Questions of legality are also being raised. Pershing Square and Valeant are loudly proclaiming that they have very cleverly (and profitably) navigated their way through a series of loopholes to create a new template for hostile acquisitions, one in which the strategic bidder cannot lose and the activist greatly increases its odds of catalyzing a quick profit-yielding event, investing and striking deals on both sides of a transaction in advance of a public announcement.

Chen v. Howard-Anderson: Delaware Court Issues Guidance Regarding M&A Transactions
On April 8, 2014, Vice Chancellor Laster of the Delaware Court of Chancery issued an opinion addressing the reasonableness of a "market check" as well as required proxy disclosures to stockholders in M&A transactions. In Chen v. Howard-Anderson, [1] the Vice Chancellor held that (i) evidence suggesting that a board of directors favored a potential acquirer by, among other things, failing to engage in a robust market check precluded summary judgment against a non-exculpated director, and (ii) evidence that the board failed to disclose all material facts in its proxy statement precluded summary judgment against all directors. The opinion addresses the appropriate scope of a market check, the necessary disclosure when submitting a transaction to stockholders for approval, the effect of exculpatory provisions in a company's certificate of incorporation, and the potential conflicts faced by directors who are also fiduciaries of one of the company's stockholders.

To-may-to To-mah-to: 10 Surprises for a US Bidder on a UK Takeover
"You like to-may-to and I like to-mah-to…
Potato, potahto, tomayto, tomahto
Let's call the whole thing off"
("Let's Call The Whole Thing Off" by George & Ira Gershwin, 1937)
Two nations divided by a common tongue. In M&A, as in so many spheres, common language and terminology often give rise to the assumption that the architecture is similarly homogenous. Although the US and the UK have a number of similarities in terms of capital markets and business practices, there are fundamental divergences in approach to public takeover practice and regulation.
Consistent with the title of this post, I have used the great American songbook as an entry point to this guide to the ten principal differences between takeover practice and regulation in the US and the UK.

Do Mandatory 'Auctions' Increase Gains of Target Shareholders in M&A?
Several years ago, the Delaware Supreme Court held, in Revlon v. MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings, that when a "sale" or "break-up" of a company becomes "inevitable," the duty of the board of directors is not to maintain the independence of the company or otherwise give priority to long-term considerations, but rather to obtain the highest price possible for the shareholders in the transaction (that is, to maximize short-term value). To satisfy that duty, when confronted with these situations, the board is generally supposed to conduct an auction (or, as clarified in subsequent decisions, a "market check") that ensures that the final buyer is, in fact, the best bidder available. In the words of the court, in this "inevitable" "break-up" or "sale" scenario (which, however, the court did not precisely define), the directors' duties shift from "defenders of the corporate bastion to auctioneers charged with getting the best price for the stockholders."

Inside Bin Laden's House, 'A Fading Splash Of Blood'
The New York Times writes this morning about a retired Pakistani Army brigadier's attempt to reconstruct what happened last May when U.S. Navy Seals killed Osama bin Laden at the al-Qaida leader's hideout in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
There aren't a lot of details about what it looked like inside the house before it was torn down last month. But there is this:
"Climbing the stairs to the second floor, [Shaukat] Qadir passed a body outline that marked the spot where bin Laden's 22-year-old son, Khalid, was shot dead. Then he turned to a small room with a low ceiling, an empty wardrobe and a tight cluster of bullets holes in one wall, he said. Above that, on the ceiling, was a fading splash of blood that, his Pakistani intelligence escort told him, belonged to Bin Laden."
Qadir, the Times says, has pieced together a report that terrorism analyst Peter Bergen says is "larded with strange conspiracies" (for instance, that al-Qaida operatives betrayed bin Laden for the $25 million reward offered by the U.S.).
But in its story, the Times also sprinkles in this bit of news:
"Several American and Western officials, speaking in Washington and Pakistan on the condition of anonymity, said that the CIA had scanned millions of documents taken from computer disks found in Bin Laden's house yet found no evidence of official Pakistani support" for the al-Qaida leader, who it's believed was in Abbottabad for several years.

The Best Stock For Long-Term Investors [View article]
In my opinion, despite all the comical French politics and policies, France still offers has plenty of world-class companies and investors must consider them for long-term investment instead of simply ignoring all companies that are French.
Here are a few things to consider about L'Air Liquide SA:
1. Like another commentator noted it is better to go with the OTC traded AIQUY than AIQUF.
2. AIQUY became effective on Jan 15, 1983 per BNY Mellon data. So it has traded on the US markets for a long time. Yahoo Finance data alone goes as far back as 1996.
3.Average daily trading volume is over 20,000 shares per day this year with the top volume reaching over 46,000 in July. So definitely it is not very thinly traded.
4.L'Air Liquide SA is a member of the CAC-40 Index.
5.The company operates in a highly specialized field.
Though the recent French Financial Tax and withholding taxes are a pain in the neck for US investors those costs are small when compared to potential growth opportunities for long-term investors in French companies.

A small slow growing tree for my closed terrarium.
I have a small jar type terrarium about 9" in diameter, and 10" tall. It houses mostly mosses and ferns, but I want to find a (very) small tree that can live there. Im looking for something that will stay healthy if I continue to prune it to be this small.
Currently I have a small japanese maple seedling in the terraruim, but I have been told that this is not a good choice, and that I should remove the plant. So far, I have left it in and have had no real problems. I keep it at around 70-90% humidity, and supply light with a 27 watt CFL bulb.
Any suggestions for a small tree that could be a permanent addition? Again, something small, with lots of leaves. Like a bonsai but less work...
Why don't you look through this site > Glass House Works
I would suggest the Violet Barn under Terrarium Plants. The Breynia disticha nana is one that I use for a tree in my small terrarium.
The maple will indeed be a poor choice long term as they MUST have a cold winter dormancy to remain healthy.
Larry's idea is a good one. You might, with religious pruning be able to keep a ficus a managable size.
Depending upon your tastes, how about a dead tree fall? If you found an interesting contorted grape vine or branch, it could make for an interesting focal point in your terr.
Thanks for the suggestions. i like the idea of a small ficus, as my family has a few large ones at home. do you think that constant pruning will hurt the tree? is it possible to make the leaves stay small as well? or will i end up with a tiny tree with large leaves.
I used to have a dead tree fall with some resurrection ferns on it, but it developed mold and i had to let it go. here is a picture.
Zach, 2 options for you if you decide to do the deadfall look again:
1) There are some type of wood that are very resistant to rotting and because of that are often used in aquariums. Both petstores and eBay carry such.
2) If you find a nice piece of wood, you can treat it with a liquid sealant like that used for sealing stepping stones and other cement/hypertufa items.
great suggestion! I will look into this. I am leaning towards the small ficus option, but this terrarium seems to be constantly evolving. i recently added some cryptanthus to it. We will see how this goes. I love experimenting with it all. I have also found to my dismay that many of the mosses I have are temperate and therefore require a cold cycle which I cannot supply. I fear my maple is doomed to a similar fate. oh well. I am loking into some tropical mosses more suited to the enviornment.
So far many of the plants have been collected from my trips and explorations (in mostly temperate climates). I think that I will have to focus on tropical plants.
I have noticed that there seem to be many many types of ficus trees available at glass house works. does anyone know which ones could be suitable for my uses? (small leaves...)
Ficus benjamina is one of the smaller leafed ones I know of though it still might be larger leafed than what you want. Ficus pumila has very small leaves BUT it has a vining habit as opposed to the tree look. I don't know if it could be trained/shaped to have a tree form.
I have a benjamina that I've kept under 2 feet for many years but not in a terraium.. I would guess that if it's possible it would be a good choice for you experiment lol
Certainly a lot of cultivars to choose from. Breynia might be a good choice also. Both will tolerate abuse to
a remarable degree lol Obviously you'd want to choose the smallest cultivar no matter what you choose.
Let us know how that works?? gary

Anybody use software to keep records
We use quicken for our rental houses, but I am looking for something more for market gardening. Something that helps with
~crop yields
Anything you like or don't like that you have tried? Part of my plasticulture grant I have to track good records, and I don't want to worry about finding a good tracking method this spring when I know I will be BUSY!!!!
I have seen this book and I have one. It is pretty good. I hope next year I will use it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Organic Farmers Business Handbook
You can customize your Quicken for the gardening also. You will use different accounts, but that's just for the accounting side of gardening. I'm not sure what you could use for the plotting part. You can use most anything to keep track of your yields and such. Paper and pencil works also. Keeping records of the garden will not be as easy as rental properties, believe me, I've been there also.
I found that it's just easier for me, to write everything down and then do the book work. But, that's how I was taught before computers made the scene.
We will be using this for next year's crop planning.
The plant spacing is customizable and it's easy to use.
Here is a link that might be useful: Grow Veg Planner
I have been building and refining my computer records and data base as long as I've been gardening. There are some good tools available, but often they are expensive. Here is the first place I would recommend that you go: http://www.johnnyseeds.com/t-InteractiveTools.aspx
If you are proficient with Excel or some other spreadsheet management program, it isn't too hard to come up with tools to calculate seed-starting dates, planting or harvest estimates, p&l statements for specific crops, etc. Someday someone will come up with an affordable software program and will make a fortune.
Get and read this PDF..... It maybe has somewhat close to what you are looking for.....
And then there are these:
For some odd reason, I have a browser's bookmarks tab labeled "GardenSoftware" with more of this same sort of stuff.
If you want more, just ask
This is an interesting thread. I'm curious what features you all would consider the most useful for market garden or small farm management online tools. Examples might include:
- Sales planning,
- Expense tracking (including apportioning fixed expenses),
- Profit comparisons per crop, per season, per market, etc...
- Mobile-enabled (realtime tracking of expenses and sales as they occur),
I'm interested in all opinions. Thanks!
Brett, I don't know if you can properly gauge what you are asking, until you have a few years under your belt.
Sales planning, if you're at the farmers market or your own stand, that would depend upon how many customers and what they might want that day. Very unpredictable.
Fixed expenses, can only be done at end of fiscal year.
Profit comparisons, also can only be done at the end of a certain time period. Also very unpredictable due weather and customers not be consistent.
Mobile-that would be the easiest. just send yourself a message at the time of expense or sales. I do that when I see a good deal or need to remember something.
Marla: I agree. The benefits of a data-oriented approach to farm/garden management grow significantly over time as more data is collected. In the beginning the data will be too sparse to see clear trends or come to firm conclusions about, for example, profitability of a crop within a season or profitability of attendance at a market. However, over time I think the ability to draw objective conclusions will become clearer. In other words, trends will start to show up.
I only have anecdotal evidence at this point, but I believe many small farmers and market gardeners manage the financial aspects of their farm or garden in an ad-hoc manner. I think one reason for this is a lack of approachable financial management tools targeted specifically at the small farmer/gardener (that's why I thought this thread was interesting). The tools I've tried out so far strike me as too general (Quicken) or too complex (custom Excel spreadsheets). So I think a lot of farmers and gardeners use paper which makes it harder (and more time consuming) to see trends and make data-driven decisions.
Businesses in other industries create relatively detailed annual budgets (the planning cycle) and then do their best to stick with them during the year by tracking revenues and expenses. They then iterate over time in an attempt to maximize the likelihood that they will generate a profit each year. I'd love to see these same principles intuitively applied to small farms and market gardens because decisions based on data are (generally speaking) more likely to result in long-term (financial) success.
I'm asking the questions above in an attempt to define a good set of features for online (web-based and/or mobile-device-based) tools that do a good job of hiding unnecessary complexity from the small farmer/gardener while still providing sophisticated views into budgets, revenues, expenses, and trends.
If you think I'm nuts, let me know!
You're here, so of course, you're nuts. We all are, at least alittle bit. I learnt Accounting the paper way, and I still find myself going back to pen/paper for alot of things. Then, I add to spreadsheets. I do admit that during the busy time, I don't always have time to enter everything, but having a notebook with me is easier than trying to remember everything. Those little pocket notebooks are wonderful.
I tried QuickBooks, I already had the program, and it worked once you created your own files. Luckily for me, with my background, I knew what I needed for the taxes. I kept track of those things, but the crop expectations were too far off from year to year, to know what to expect.
I've decided that my phone can send messages/photos of receipts to my email and that will help, if I can remember.
I'm sure there will be more things that will help, just not sure at this time.
I have played with a few programs, still haven't found one I love. I start an 8 wk market gardening class tonight, I am hoping there will be some good suggestions @ the class.
Also spunbondwarrior Terra farms stuff has interested me, but I keep holding off using there stuff, seems like an info-mercial to me, I am skeptical for some reason.
Keep us posted in regards to your class. I wish there had been something when I first started. I'm taking some Ag Econ, Entrepreneur, Intro to Hort and Soil Science classes this semester. Hopefully I'll learn something that I can use. Most of the class are regular corn/bean or cattle farmers. Several thousand acres versus my less than 30. Hubby and I give a totally different outlook on class discussions.
I've noticed that there don't seem to be many quality choices for market garden and small farm management tools. I was asking for input above because a couple of us have decided to create a web (and eventually mobile) based application to help in this area.
I have posted an eight minute video on the page linked below showing where the app is at so far. If you have a chance please take a look and leave some feedback either here or as comments on our blog.
By the way, I'm still interested in any other farm/garden management tools that folks have found useful.
Here is a link that might be useful: Profitable Farmer Home Page
Thanks very much for the feedback. I'll let you know here and on our blog, twitter feed, and email list when that functionality is ready. Shouldn't be long! We'll definitely need some volunteers to give it a whirl and provide candid feedback.
By the way, I enjoyed looking through your blog posts (http://rockycropfarm.com). Keep 'em coming!
I recieved an email from Johnny's this week offering to try their software free for 3 months. I haven't looked at it yet, but plan to try & play with it in the next few weeks. Also willing to try out the Profitable farmers program.
I tried Mother Earth News & didn't like it. Also tried Garden Planner (I think) Laying out the garden was too difficult to enjoy the software, but the data features seemed to be similar to what I am looking for.

Talented actor Sai Deodhar (Saara Akaash) who has donned the hat of a producer with Star Plus's show Mujhse Kuchh Kehti...Yeh Khamoshiyaan in association with Ila Bedi Datta (Trilogy Krikos) accepts that it is a tough job to work with someone else (co production) .
"But with Khamosiyaan we have clear-cut demarcated roles i.e. we deal with the creative aspects of the show. While they (Krikos) handle the production side of things…so end of the day it works fine," said Sai.
She smartly dodged the question of whether the recent financial difficulties which Trilogy Krikos faced affected the show in anyways. "We never get into what they do and I guess that works better."
Media seriously know that poor ph and thier financial problem ..God save them

Keeping up with The Genuines: updates on Michael Schwartz's doings & dealings
Michael Schwartz and his Genuine team have their hands full
As blogger Ryan Roman spread the word that Barbuto's chef de cuisine Roel Alcudia would be running the kitchen at Michael Schwartz's next big thing The Cypress Room, we realized it was time to snag the chef and his Genuine team for a little game of catch up. What follows is pretty comprehensive--though don't be surprised if fifty more projects come down the pipeline as you read this--update of the goings on in Schwartz's world.
Harry's Pizzeria: Just launched Sunday brunch and is in the second season of their hot ticket chef pop-ups, with tickets for March 12's Telepan Pizzeria going on sale Tuesday, January 29.
Michael's Genuine Food & Drink: For the first time ever, MGFD will be serving Saturday lunch starting on February 9 and featuring the same menu as the weekday lunch.
The Cypress Room: Expect an opening sometime in March and refer to the Roman post for chef update.
Raleigh Hotel: Things are kicking into gear but, as the SBE team gets oriented with its newest acquisition, it may be a while before we see the Schwartzification of the hotel's restaurant.
Michael's Genuine Home Brew: Now available at Shake Shack, Total Wine & More, SLS Hotel South Beach (duh), The Broken Shaker and more.
Schwartz at Sea: Expect an announcement about another Schwartz collaboration with Royal Carribbean.

"Motorcycle Crazy in Monterey" Monterey by shaun929
Monterey Travel Guide: 923 reviews and 2,761 photos
I am a big street motorcycle enthusiast. I ride Suzuki GSXR 750 motorcycles with some other guys in Vegas. Every July we make our annual "bike mecca" to Monterey, California for the Laguna Seca Bike Races. Last Year was the first time I took my kids. We will do it again this year July 11-14. This year they'll have a nanny to watch them after 9pm (So I can have some adult fun in town after the races).
Monterey is one of the most beautiful coastal towns in California. If you plan on visiting Monterrey there are very few rooms available, especially during auto and motorcycle races. Sometimes you can find a house rental available for a substantial price.

The manufacturing powerhouse that is modern China has yet to make inroads into the automotive industry. That may soon change, The BYD car, manufactured in China, are set to hit U.S. showrooms at the end of 2015.

Keywords: BYD, China, cars, U.S. dealers, electric cars
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - BYD says they plan to introduce about four models for its U.S. debut. Though BYD wasn't ready when it earlier sought to enter the U.S. car market in 2010, the company is more prepared this time, Stella Li, the senior vice president in charge of the company's U.S. business said in an interview.
The Chinese are seeking to make impact upon the U.S. car market as the Japanese and South Koreans did decades earlier. Geely and Chery Automobile Co. have made such predictions as far back as 2005, though they've yet to sell their first car in America.
Help our brothers and sisters in the Philippines by going here ...
"Entering the U.S. market carries more symbolic meaning to brand building than actually boosting its bottom line," Han Weiqi, an analyst with CSC International Holdings Ltd. in Shanghai said. "They really need to make sure cars they deliver there have sound quality in order to avoid adverse impact."
It must be noted that BYD has previously planned far planning bigger than what they can actually deliver, Han says.
Billionaire BYD founder and Chairman Wang Chuanfu completed a three-year reorganization last year, during which he cut the number of dealerships and narrowed losses at its solar business thanks to state incentives. Investors have been receptive to BYD's turnaround. Focusing on electric cars, BYD saw its shares surge 63 percent to HK $38 in Hong Kong trading last year.
BYD is already in the U.S. vehicle market as it sells electric buses to fleet operators, instead of cars to consumers. The company is preparing to begin U.S. production of electric buses in March at its factory in Lancaster, California.
"Back then, we had passion, but we had no brand, no history, no capital and no competitive advantage," Li says. "BYD has become more fashionable and we have improved our design and safety. We don't want to compete on price anymore, but on quality and innovation."
It must be noted that BYD isn't the only Chinese automaker pursuing the American consumer. Geely, whose parent owns Volvo Cars, plans to export cars developed with the Swedish brand to the U.S. in 2016.
BYD plans to open a factory in Sao Paolo, Brazil during the soccer World Cup that starts in June to assemble its K9 electric buses, Li said.

I thought the service was excellent,
I have used them a few times now and got my unlock code instantly on screen and by email everytime,
except once when my browser (opera browser) lost connection on the code display page
and it got stuck on calculating unlock code.
I emailed them through the site to email@example.com with my order number and the service rep got back to me right away with my unlock code and a credit for another unlock code for free next time, even though it
was my fault that my browser lost connection :)
Now that's fantastic service! and not very common these days.
Not to mention the price was pretty decent for such fast delivery(instant)
Anyways, I recommend BlackberryCodeSource
Cheers :)

What's Chevy up to now with the Corvette?
With a couple of weeks before the New York auto show opens, we're getting wind that Chevrolet has plans for unveiling a new Corvette at the show. The carmaker apparently will be making three big debuts in the Big Apple for the April 16th event, with one being a new variant of the Corvette.
A few C7 Captain America Shots to hold you over until this Weekend
The 2014 Corvette Stingray driven by Scarlett Johansson who plays the Black Widow in "Captain America: The Winter Soldier", will likely spark a lot more 'Vette fans into buying tickets to the film when it hits U.S. theaters this weekend. To help you rev up even more for the second installment of the superhero franchise, we thought we'd share a few photos we stumbled upon of the C7 on set in Washington D.C.
This is one Scary Stingray
Talk about intimidating. Can you imagine cruising down the highway and suddenly seeing this sitting in the median? I'm betting most would probably start sweating the second they were to see it, even if they weren't speeding.
C7 Corvette Stingray Gets its First Negative Review … Sort of
There's always one right? That one person who regardless of what everyone else says, figures he'll go against the grain. Yup, and believe it or not, there's one who even exists among all the journalists in the world who have weighed in on the award-winning 2014 Corvette Stingray. Wait, was that "award-winning"? Oh yeah, award-winning, which is why it almost seems odd when you hear anyone say anything bad about the C7.
Scarlett Johansson Wows Crowd with C7 on Red Carpet
OK, let's see a show of hands, or better yet, likes in the world of Facebook: who can't wait to see "Captain America: The Winter Soldier"? Even if you aren't a big fan of superhero flicks, seeing Scarlett Johansson chasing down villains in a 2014 black-on-black Corvette Stingray will alone be worth paying for that pricey IMAX 3D ticket.
