My Tcl application should read and store a lot of configurations parameters. I'd like to use regular disk file as a storage rather than registry or something else.
It would be great to store parameters hierarchically. All my parameters are strings, numbers, and lists of them. Configuration file(s) may be placed in directory (not only user's home). Normally application expects configuration file in the current directory.
Do you know any ready-to-use Tcl library?
More general question: what is the "Tcl-way" to read/write application configuration?

Ok lodgings about a mile from the beach in Santa Monica. Room was a nice size with a balcony. Bathroom was somewhat odd with no door in the commode area. My party had 2 rooms and was travelling with a 13 month old. Arrived before check-in after an early flight from the east coast. Front desk personnel "suggested" a local park to visit as we were "waiting" in the waiting area for rooms to be ready. The sense we got the front desk was "bothered" as a 13 month old acted like a 13th month old and no he/we were not loud. Great free shuttle offered by hotel within a 3 mile radius was a plus. Overall fine for adults but could not recommend for families.

PlayStation 4 Console Design
PS4 measures approximately 275 mm (width) × 53 mm (height) × 305 mm (length), excluding the largest projection. The PS4 is light and slim compared to the Xbox One, with its power supply built inside as opposed to a power brick. It's matte on the bottom and glossy on the top, which contrasts well. Its weight is approximately 2.8 kg (6.1 pounds). It is only available in one color at launch, Jet Black. The PS4 is worlds of a difference lighter and more stylish than the launch PS3, and even the PS3 slim. The angular, parallelogram like design has been highly acclaimed by critics and gamers worldwide, and has been praised compared to the bulky, all glossy and vented Xbox One. The top glossy part of the console can pop off to reveal the replacable hard drive.
PS4 Console Images
These PlayStation 4 images were debuted at E3 2013.
These images were obtained as stills from the teaser trailer. [1] Most of these images appear to be shots of the console, but some may be the DualShock 4.

Bad cold water valve (most likely), or a shorted wire to it ... or bad controller board if the valve and wiring checks OK.
Just by doing a quick search online, it may be the hot or cold water inlet valve is faulty or having an issue.

Type: New Feature
Status: Resolved
Priority: Major
Resolution: Later
Fix Version/s: None
Component/s: Core
Once we have the locator abstracted (with the gossiper being a
particular concrete implementation), we want to change the locator
abstraction to not express changes in ring topology on a per-node
basis; rather we want to use an abstraction which communicates two
arbitrary ring states; one state for the read set, and one for the
write set.
Once this abstraction is in place, the (pluggable) locator will be
able to make bulk changes to a ring at once. Main points:
- Must be careful in handling consistency level during ring
transitions, such that a given node in the read set corresponds to a
specific node in the write set. This will impose some restrictions
on completion of transitions, to avoid code complexity, so it is an
important point.
- All code outside of gossip (and any other locator that works
similarly) will be agnostic about individual changes to nodes, and
will instead only be notified when new ring states are available (in
aggregate). This makes the change non-trivial because all code that
currently is oriented around individual node changes always
producing a valid ring, will have to be changed.
Issue Links
- depends upon
CASSANDRA-3834 make locator pluggable/abstract
- Resolved
- is related to
CASSANDRA-3901 write endpoints are not treated correctly, breaking consistency guarantees
- Resolved
CASSANDRA-3892 improve TokenMetadata abstraction, naming - audit current uses
- Resolved
- relates to
CASSANDRA-3483 Support bringing up a new datacenter to existing cluster without repair
- Resolved
CASSANDRA-3901 explains the basics of the first of the two points listed above, and how I believe this is already not correct in the current version.
It gets more complicated for arbitrary transitions for the following reason:
The easiest way to implement arbitrary transitions would be to just require that a transition completes fully, or not at all. This avoids complexity in responsibility calculations, with each node being responsible (in the write set) for the parts of the ring that it will eventually be responsible for when all completes.
But clearly, from an operator's standpoint, it would be good to allow ad-hoc changing of a transition change. Supposing you're bootstrapping 100 nodes into a cluster and 2 of them turn out to be broken, you'd like to just be able to say 'oh well, nevermind those 2 for now I'll come back to them later [when h/w ix fixed for example]". The problem is that if there is overlap between hosts being inserted into the cluster (I'm using the word "inserted" and assuming node bootstrap for simplicity; the equivalent holds true for any change) other nodes will not have been part of the write set so you cannot just forget about the ones that aren't up yet.
On way to address this is to not consider overlapping nodes when calculating the write set, preferring to write "too much" data (as the case is today). Another way is to do the full calculations and have additional streaming happen when a topology change is adjusted - but that seems excessively complex.
Yet a third way is to specifically support the concept of a node which "was supposed to be at token X and this other node Y was bootstrapped with that in mind". This is similar to what was discussed in
CASSANDRA-3483 and can get complex.
I forgot another thing: If one goes for the option of writing to all possible endpoints that might be up, it also has the effect of significantly increasing the probability of Unavailable exceptions. Consider that you're streaming data in a replica set to 3 different nodes that have overlapping future ownership (pending ranges). If you need to allow each node going up individually, not only do you need to write more as mentioned above, every single request that touches data that is shared between one existing host in the replica set and multiple potential futures, would have to be required for consistency purposes.
In other words, whenever you're performing a write, you essentially have to keep track of the current read set, the write set, and the possible "future equivalence" between the two. If data is moving from A to B, with A being in the read set and B being in the write set (read set = A, write set = AB (using RF=1 for simplicity)), any write satisfied with the help of an ACK from A must also be satisfied by B. Otherwise the data is effectively lost once finishes the join.
For arbitrary ring changes the number of overlaps could potentially be higher than 1. For example if you have RF=3 and triple the size of a cluster, you're now inserting two nodes in between each pre-existing node. So for any replica set for a row key with read set ABC, the future read set will be AXY (XY being bootstrapped nodes), and while they're joining, the write set will be AXYBC. But any write satisfying CL via A, must also be ack:ed by X and Y because we don't know which one of them will finish bootstrapping first.
It should be noted though that the "we don't know who goes up first" is only a result of using a token ring as the underlying abstraction. One either has to add the logic to work around this when considering the token ring, or alternatively one can move away from the token ring as the underlying abstraction (which can in turn be considered mapping ring segments, but the token ring becomes more of an implementation detail than fundamental model then).
More on this in the future when this ticket is closer to reality.

My sister and I spent 3 nights in the Crow's Nest behind the main house and really enjoyed our stay. The room was comfortable, charming, and private. Deb was terrific and not only made breakfast to order, but gave us a tour of all of the lovely rooms. The Captain's Stay is an ideal location for walking around historic New Bern.

My friends and I came to new bern for a girl's weekend and we stayed in the crows nest behind the behind the main house....it was as adorable and quaint as we imagined in would be...deb and her husband were so nice and went above and beyond anything we expected. Debs omelets were absolutely amazing!!!! Also we were in very close walking distance to all of historic new bern...just so amazing and i can't wait to go back!!!

This was my very first experience at a B&B and I was very impressed! Deb and her husband were very welcoming along with the people of New Bern! Me and a group of friends stayed in the Crows Nest which is in the back of the property and a lot more private. It was so cute and just perfect. There was a TV and DVD player, mini fridge, microwave, coffee machine, and filled with little snacks to munch on. It was very clean and well kept. As soon as we arrived Deb greeted us with open arms and gave us the grand tour of the beautiful 200 year old home. In the main house there was a massive DVD collections, pool table, social area, dining area and the kitchen! She served breakfast in the mornings until 10am, and I just wanted to move in at that point! She knew all the local hang out spots and the recommendations were spot on for food. The sheets and towels were changed out in the morning for us which was very nice. The beds were so comfortable and I felt like I was on cloud nine. There was adequate lighting, drawer and closet space for clothes. The bathroom was equipped with multiple toiletries just in case there was something you may have forgotten at home, she had. All in all I cannot praise this place enough, it was the best time! I will be coming back if I am ever in New Bern.

Our stay the this cute little B&B was only for one night, and we could not have had a better experience anywhere else. Deb was very welcoming and her recommendations on food places in downtown New Bern were excellent. I LOVED how closed to Tryon Palace and down town The Captains stay was. I only wish we could have stayed to enjoy her breakfast, but with a family emergency we could not. Deb graciously offered us food to take on the road. I highly recommend this B&B to anyone who is looking for a nice little getaway.

This was my first time at a Bed and Breakfast, and after this experience it will be the only way I travel moving forward. The Captains Stay was great. It was the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in. The breakfast was outstanding. And the room (for a 200 year old house) was perfect.

We had a great time at The Captain's Stay! My husband wasn't crazy about the idea of sharing space with others, so I was excited to book The Crow's Nest. It is a small one-room cottage behind the main house, complete with a full bath, 2 queen beds, a microwave and a fridge. The service and food were excellent. We walked to lunch, dinner, and shops. Thanks for a great night away!

Actor David Arquette recently revealed in an interview that he drank his first beer when he was four years old...
four years old
I remember very well my first drink of alcohol and what I thought about it!
Which begs the questions: How old were you when you had your first alcoholic beverage? Where were you and what did you drink? Did you like it? Did you get in any trouble for it?
Join us tomorrow morning, after 8am, on Froggy101's Wake Up Call and we will be talking about those first booze experiences!

GREEN POINTS: As Montana's only LEED Platinum-certified structure recognized by the Washington, D.C.-based U.S. Green Building Council, this 8,300-square-foot (771-m2) building houses several nonprofit environmental groups. The building, which had been an abandoned 1940s grocery store, was refurbished for less than the cost of new construction. Its Earth-toned colors save 80 percent on energy, and solar panels meet almost half of office electrical demands. About 92 percent of deconstruction waste was recycled or reused, and 25 percent of materials came from sources within 500 miles (805 km) of Billings. Other green features include rooftop clerestories, cooling with outside air, radiant-floor heating, exterior rigid insulation, composting toilets and waterwise plantings.

Well the truth is. blocking a certain region may block some non-communicative players, but it will also block many and many English fluent players. Most of Europeans and Asians, from what I've seen know enough English to play LoL.
Being not understanding B,Baron,Recall,etc is because they are not trying to. Just like English speaking feeders, but since they are foreign, people blame language.
So at the end, I think only way to stop those stuck up, non-communicative idiot is to ban everyone and shut down the game. (I've seen just about the same number of idiots from non-English speakers and English speakers)
If not, we just have to learn to deal with it.
it doesn't completely break the game no, but it makes it REALLY frustrating when the only form of communication is via a ping. When you are in the lane and can't say things like "ult coming up in 10 seconds then lets gank X " or "lets split push the top and bottom lane" or whatever. I try to get teamwork going on my team even in single queue and when you have someone who only responds when you ping or whatever then it's really annoying. I am also completely aware that they do not have to speak a foreign language to not respond to chat. But in my experience that when they are non responsive to chat it is because they do not understand. Is there a solution? Not really the only solution would be a way to concede a game earlier when you notice a player not communicating.

prams - reviews please....
Started by aquarius9 , Apr 07 2012 06:43 PM

Posted 07 April 2012 - 06:43 PM
I have been looking at prams and there are a few that I have really liked:
- iCandy Peach
- Stokke
- Bugaboo camleon
- Mountain buggy swift
- Quinny
I want a pram that will be easy to fold and put away in the car, easy to push for long exercise walks, easy to manouvre in shopping centres and on public transport, not too heavy.
Can anyone offer some reviews of these prams?
Posted 07 April 2012 - 06:49 PM
I have the Bugaboo Cameleon. Definately not easy to fold (2 pieces) and put in the car, and is a pain on public transport, so much so that I ended up buying the Bugaboo Bee for mum to use when she needed to take DD on a bus. Otherwise it's fabulous to steer, both indoors and out, I still love it and will use it with the next baby, but you definately need a car with a big boot.
Posted 07 April 2012 - 07:10 PM
I highly recommend the Baby City Jogger brand of prams.
I have the Baby City Jogger Elite which is a 3 wheeler and very sturdy. It has lots of ventilation, a massive hood to cover baby, full reclining seat, lots of places to pop your purse, mobile, water etc when out walking. The tyres are foam filled which means they cannot puncture. This feature was attractive to me as I live in an area with no footpaths so I am often walking on grass, gravel or the road. It is the easiest pram on the market to fold as it has a one hand folding mechanism. No need to remove tyres or pull pram apart. Fantastic!
The downside is it is quite wide (65cms wheel base) which means there are plenty of cafes and shops you will not be able to go in to. May also be chunky for a bus or tram.
I am looking into a different stroller now, one that I would use soley for going shopping at a shopping centre (so just a cheapy). I take my BCJ Elite into my local Woolies and it is fine. I absolutley love it though when I am out exercising with my babe.
Looking at your requirements, I would consider the BCJ Mini if you were after a 3 wheeler. If I lived somewhere with footpaths I would have got this one as it is abit smaller but with all of the same features.
Good luck!
Posted 07 April 2012 - 07:18 PM
I have the Baby Jogger City Mini and love it, there is no isle or checkout too narrow for me to fit through!
It folds with one hand, when DD was a newborn I would have pram packed, baby in car seat and be driving away by the time friends were still putting the 2 pieces of their pram in the car.
I used a Valco Cacoon to keep baby snug and flat as a new born but I know plenty of people just use the seat as is.
Only thing with the City Mini is it doesn't have the big tyres for jogging, its perfect on the walking paths around my house and up and down gutters but might be a bit rough if your constantly over gravel or rocky paths.
Posted 07 April 2012 - 08:14 PM
I have a friend with a stokke and she cant walk it on any gravel paths as it has no suspension and it just shakes and vibrates if you know what I mean, so she can only take it on footpaths.. the wheels on it arent exactly made for anything but flat surfaces..
I have a baby jogger city select which is great but not on your list and prob a bit big for your needs, best of luck!
Posted 08 April 2012 - 11:30 AM
I have the miuntain buggy swift and i love it. Easy to fold and steer and not too heavy. I go on long walks and it is great on rocky surfaces.
The downside is that you cant have the bub facing you unless u have the capsule adjustment, but i think thats the same with most 3 wheelers. I dont use public transport so cant comment really. If i was going to use public transport a lot tho i would prob grt something smaller and lighter.
My friends who have one love it too and one who doesnt said she would buy one for her third bub.
Good luck deciding
Posted 08 April 2012 - 11:42 AM
I have the mountain buggy swift and I can't recommend it highly enough. It's a piece of cake to fold, I think it weighs 9.5kgs (though it's a bit long when folded). I use it everyday in my hilly suburb and I can push it one handed on dirt tracks. Last week I actually took it on the bus for the first time and while it's a little long, it fits down the bus aisles fine. I bought the bassinet because I wanted DS to face me, but you don't need to if you don't want to. The only problem I've had is tyre punctures but nothing that a bicycle repair kit wont fix. To stop punctures, DH took the tyres off and put in a special lining he bought from a bike shop. Also, the basket isn't that big if you plan on putting lots of things in it.
Posted 08 April 2012 - 01:59 PM
Hi everyone,
Thanks for the replies.
Re: bugaboo cameleon - Yes I thought it was difficult to fold quickly and easily in the store and the 2 pieces makes it more cumbersome.
Re: baby city jogger - I haven't seen one yet - so will need to check it out - sounds good.
Re: Mountain buggy swift - i did think having the baby face you would be important at the beginning - but this is probably solved with the bassinet? Also I have heard that tyre punctures can be a problem. I did like that it was light and seemed to fold easily.
Re: Stokke - interesting that it doesn't do well on uneven surfaces - I hadn't noticed that in the store obviously. It seemed also a bit cumbersome to fold.
Has anyone tried the Quinny or the Icandy peach?
Thanks again for the reviews
Posted 08 April 2012 - 02:18 PM
Also, has anyone got any thoughts about the quality of the prams made in china vs those made in Europe such as the Peg-Perego, Stokke?
Posted 08 April 2012 - 05:55 PM
My recommendation would be to look at getting TWO prams. I don't know of any prams that fit all your requirements. I have a Bugaboo bee which is light, easy to fold and maneuvers beautifully at the shops/small spots. I also have a Baby Jogger City Elite which I use for long walks. It has suspension, forever air tires (no punctures, no pumping) excellent sun shade and seat big enough for my four year old. It's wider wheel base makes it more stable for uneven ground. It has a neat fold and even better if you pop the wheels off, which means it will fit in the footwell of the back seat of the car. But I wouldn't take it on public transport etc.
That's my opinion after two kids and ten prams!
Posted 08 April 2012 - 06:01 PM
I have the mountain buggy swift and absolutely love it! I've recommended it to several friends who have gone on to buy one. It is perfect for walking - malls, walking paths, even gravel! Very easy to collapse and put into boot, etc. I had DS in it from day one, lying flat and facing away from me. You don't need to have a baby face you. It's not like they are there for hours each day. We had plenty of cuddles while b/f and holding him or wearing him in a sling. They also have good resale value if you want to sell it afterwards.
Good luck with your decision.
We used the MBS for about 18 months and then DS decided he didn't like the pram. I had two punctures in that time BUT I used to walk everyday so it's not much.
Edited by *mylittleprince*, 08 April 2012 - 06:04 PM.
Posted 08 April 2012 - 06:27 PM
Love my mountain buggy swift for walking & general everyday use. Easy to fold, very narrow & light for a 3 wheeler, a dream to push, super comfy for bub, love it! I use it daily & have done so for 15 months, no punctures, great on rough terrain.
I ended up buying a second cheap, secondhand maclaren for shops/ in theory public transport (but haven't used). It is considerably lighter than the mountain buggy & good for whipping in & out of the car. It is easy to stear but is no where near as sturdy as my MB. It can't cope on rough or uneven ground & it can't carry much.
Both are great in different ways buy I think a swift wil suit the major requirements
Posted 08 April 2012 - 08:07 PM
I have a Camelon and I love it, but a few things:
- it takes up most of the boot space of our car (we have a golf)
- it's very heavy if you're carrying it as luggage (14kg I think when I put it under the plane the other day) but you probably wont' do that often.
- it's a bit fiddly to get used to taking apart the first few times.
Having said all that as I said I love it.
It's very tough - I took it interstate with me a couple of weeks ago and it was brilliant. Really good for a bit of "off roading" around botanic gardens, across grass etc etc.
In terms of taking apart etc it's super easy, I can take apart flat pack in only a minute or two.
We're doing a bit of overseas travel in the next 6 months and I'm looking at a Bee. I've heard a lot of good things about them.
Good luck!
Posted 08 April 2012 - 08:24 PM
I have a Mountain Buggy Swift and love it. We only have one car and so in the week I am using trains, trams and buses and it is absolutely fine to take on them. I had a bassinet but it was only really useful for the first 3 months or so as she was very long..... My only real complaints are that we have had a few punctures but we could get round that in the ways described above and the basket is a bit small.
We also have a Maclaren Techno XT which we took to the UK and generally use at the weekends when we have the car. The MB fits in the boot ok but it does completely fill it - we have Ford Focus - which is another reason we use the Maclaren at the weekends.

It has a neat fold and even better if you pop the wheels off, which means it will fit in the footwell of the back seat of the car. But I wouldn't take it on public transport etc.
That's my opinion after two kids and ten prams!
I agree. I only have one child but have gone through 4 prams. We still have two, one is for longer outings as it has a recline and my toddler can sleep comfortably in it and has a good sunshade. The second one is the one we use most often, its a lightweight maclaren and is great for tossing in and out of the car.

I'm going to go against the crowd, but I have been SO DISAPPOINTED with our Mountain Buggy Swift. Bought it about 18 months ago & it is the newer made in China version, not old New Zealand made one with green labels.
When we first got it home, DP blew up the tires, & about 3 hours later there was an almighty booming explosion, which was one of the inner tubes obliterating. Of course, DP hadn't read the instructions which specified the max pressure for the wheels, so that's wasn't the pram's fault. But then, within a week of DS's birth, the wheels were making a terrible clattery noise as they turned, which turned out to be the wheel bearings needing to be replaced. The tech guy at our local baby shop who fixed it said they'd had a heap brought back with the same issue. We then had multiple flat, leaking & punctured tires which has been a massive pain in the backside.
I've never felt like our pram has been nearly as smooth & effortless to push & steer as the one we tried in the shop. It's not that great on gravel & it's not good enough to really power walk or run with (which it's probably not really meant for anyway). The wheels aren't very sturdy & wobble quite a bit from side to side.
I originally wanted a pram where bubs faced me, & was talked out of it, but I really regret not sticking to that. I know DS would be much happier in the pram if he could see me & interact with me while we're walking,& I'd be happier too. I don't think there is a pram on the market that is a perfect all rounder - i.e. Small, lightweight, sturdy, good suspension, great on all surfaces & for exercise, and with a rear-facing option! Having said that, a fairly convincing 'expert' (shop owner) told me that that the Baby Joggers are much better made than the Mountain Buggys, & were bringing out a new model which has a rear facing option. I'd be interested to know if that's true. Also, the Baby Jogger folding mechanism is bloody fantastic!

Definitely recommend Maclaren. I've taken my Vogue on trams, trains, buses and through the airport (oh and a ferry in Sydney). Very light, easy to fold and sturdy. Doesn't take up much boot space at all. Baby does not face you ( but I never wanted this for my kids, I want them to see the world, not my face when walking) and storage basket is not huge. I like the brand I even bought a Maclaren double when #2 arrived, the seats are slightly narrower but it fits through supermarket aisles easily.

I know that it is not a popular choice but I love my Stokke. I'm surprised by the PP who said their friend had trouble over uneven surfaces, I push it over rocks and uneven surfaces all the time and I have never had any problems.
The best part is the height, lightness and manoeuvrability, I have never come across a shop I couldn't get into and around. My husband and I are both tall so it is perfect for not bending down and it is the easiest thing to change around (FF or RF) and collapse down.
The bad thing is that it does take up a lot of space, it basically fills our station wagon boot. Also you get stopped every time you go out and often stared at because it does look different.
But for us it is perfect and looks as good as the day we brought it. Hannah loves it and happily sits up high looking around.

After much deliberation I brought the baby jogger city mini for DD (now 2) and have been pleased with my choice. I live in an urban area and don't own a car so rely on public transport to get around so I liked that I could hold DD with one hand and fold the stroller and put it in the boot of a taxi with the other. I found it really easy to steer with one hand if DD was fussing and I needed to pick her up, unlike my friend who found the Quinny Buzz more of a challenge to steer one handed. I found the fully reclined position was fine for DD from birth and when she was a bit older and preferred to be facing me I would just attach her carseat which is rear facing. I also liked the fact that there are no puncture issues with this BJ model as tyres are solid, and wheels are sold separately (very handy when airlines return your stroller at baggage collection missing a wheel). Supermarket aisles and shop layouts where I live are super narrow and not pram friendly at all and I found that I could get this stroller into most stores. Don't know if this will be an issue for you but as this is a 3 wheel stroller you will need to ascend escalators backwards which can take a bit of practice. Hope this helps you with your decision.

Yankee fans have as much of an axe to grind as anyone when it comes to Hall of Fame selection, at least as it plays out among players elected in their first year of eligibility, specifically on January 21. On this day in 1971, Yogi Berra was denied entry in his first year of eligibility. In years gone by since, Kirby Puckett made it, and both Ozzie Smith and Willie Stargell were voted in on their first tries. How is it possible that the three-time American League Most Valuable Player Yankee catcher wasn't? Continue reading
History Highlights for January 13
January 13 is not the happiest of days in the Yankee family. On this day in 1939, owner Colonel Jacob Ruppert died of phlebitis. He was then succeeded in the role of president of the club by the brilliant former business manager who built the Yankee winners, Ed Barrow. Continue reading
History Highlights for January 6
Considering the two reports that follow this one, Yankee land can utter a sigh of relief that the January 6, 2009 signing of first baseman Mark Teixeira worked out fairly well. Tex was not signed solely for his switch-hitting or power prowess, although it was hardly a surprise that he tied for the American League lead in home runs that year. A wizard at first base with his glove work, solid decision-making and stellar arm, Tex continued to give Yankee ownership and fans alike a good feeling that he signed, even though he has suffered significant injury issues the last few years. Hard-working Shelley Duncan was designated for assignment to make room on the 40-man roster, but Shelley would be back in the Yankee fold shortly, though he was onto Cleveland for 2010.

Twitter is buzzing over a series of photos that show U.S. President Barack Obama enjoying himself with Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt, while a dour Michelle Obama sits stiffly and noticeably apart from her husband.
Were the shared laughs too much, after the famous superpower selfie Obama shot with Thorning-Schmidt and British Prime Minister David Cameron?
Causing the most amusement is a meme that's making the rounds on Twitter showing a trio of photos: Obama and Thorning-Schmidt sharing a laugh; Thorning-Schmidt trying to engage President Obama while Michelle Obama ignores her; and finally, the trio in new seats, with MIchelle Obama sitting between her husband and Thorning-Schmidt.
Did President Obama have a little too much fun with Thorning-Schmidt while in Johannesburg Tuesday for Nelson Mandela's memorial service?
Look at the photos and judge for yourself. If you're using a mobile app, tap the story image and swipe.

Kindness really could be going viral! Just look…

Karva Chauth: A Desi version of Valentine's Day Last Updated : 22 Oct 2013 11:55:19 AM IST Women celebrating Karva Chauth (File Photo)
With the every passing year, Karva Chauth festival has witnessed several changes and increased its popularity manifold and established its feet in rural India too.
Also read: Karva Chauth 2013 Moonrise timing and puja muhurat
Till a decade ago, Karva Chauth was believed to be a metropolitan festival but now has become popular among rural women too. Thanks to the growing TV serial popularity and Bollywood penetration to smaller towns, the Karva Chauth is observed in remote areas now.
The biggest contribution in Karva Chauth popularity is made by Ekta Kapoor and Karan Johar. Today it is observed so widely that one can even call it a desi version of 'Valentine's Day'!
Bollywood actress Kajol's Karva Chauth fast in Karan Johar's DDLJ inspired unmarried girls and boys to express their firm commitments towards each other. DDLJ also helped Karva Chauth to adorn modernize look in the society.
A boost for Cosmetic Industry
Apart from Bollywood movies and TV sops, Cosmetic industries also played major role to publicize Karva Chauth festival. At present, Karva Chauth has helped cosmetic markets increase its business manifold.
As per reports, the cosmetic and jewellery industry makes huge business on the occasion of Karva Chauth.
Dudes starving too
Why should women only fast for their hubbies on Karva Chauth? This is the hot debating issue for several years. A section of intellectual women and modern single girls feel that Karva Chauth is not only for long life of husband it also brings prosperity in the family and society. These women feel it is unfair for only women to fast on Karva Chauth. Now, the trend is changing.
A newly married Delhi couple is fasting on Karva Chauth this year to show love, affection and dedication for each other.
Ravi, who works in a MNC says, "My wife can't starve for a day to pray for my long life. She feels that it will be a fun if we both celebrate the festival by fasting. The idea looked quite interestingly and I agreed to join her in fast."
Another single girl, who observes fast for her boyfriend, says now trend is changing. "My boyfriend also starves to show his commitment towards me. Today only girls are asked to show commitment but now the ides is changing rapidly. And starving boyfriend on Karva Chauth is best way to show commitment."

I really like this Orlane line of products and use them exclusively. They really make a difference in the softness and fine lines of my skin.

I have been using Orlane's absolute skin recovery care eye contour over 15 years and I can honestly say it is a wonderful product, it refreshes the eye area and helps reduce puffiness and lines around the eye area.

I recently ordered a cleanser from Orlane. I have been using it for 35 years and plan to use it forever! Hard to find in Australia so I really appreciate online shopping with an efficent and reliable company i.e. FragranceNet!

Orlane's Night Cream is the finest facial moisturizer I have ever used and I have used almost all of them. I am usually disappointed by trying new creams, but I was very impressed with the positive difference in my skin. This product stands out from all the rest.
