Best in this price
I think this one is best in this price range, and fits almost all the needs. I live alone and use it for pineapple juice and find it good enough as a juicer, its affordable and best, helps me enjoy fresh and pure juice whenever I want.Ajit Parab

Economical Item
Costwise this is a good item. But having small problems. Design of lids of Jar is not good. Immediately after starting, the mixture/liquid from jar flows out. then it runs OK. Juice collecting point is to be improoved by the manufacturer so that the juice can be collected easily holding bowl etc. Otherwise the item is goodVenkataswamy Bandi

Noordam Cruise Review by xRCAF94: Noordam 26-Day Eastern Med

Noordam 26-Day Eastern Med
This was an excellent cruise for seeing the Eastern Med. We have now seen pretty well every place we ever wanted to visit there.
We had two excellent hotels - the Tenuta Dell Argento during a two day stopover in Civitavecchia between cruises, and the Esans Hotel in Istanbul at the end of the cruise. Both were selected based on TripAdvisor reviews.
The Noordam had good cabins and facilities, although there were a few plumbing problems for the first day or two. The entertainment was mixed. Spectacular productions were being introduced, but some were more enjoyable than others despite outstanding talent, choreography, costumes and sets. I sometimes longed for more traditional or popular music. Some other acts were kind of lame, especially one poor comedian.
There were the normal activities, including classes, demonstrations, exercise, etc. HAL shore excursions were so terribly expensive that we did not use them, but found alternatives.
We used open More
dining and enjoyed meeting and conversing with other passengers - a good thing, as service in the dining room was very slow (and the coffee was terrible).
The ports of call were what really made this cruise. We have seen the Acropolis, climbed to the tomb inside the Great Pyramid, had a nighttime gondola ride in Venice and seen all kinds of scenic and historic sites. It really was great. Less

What materials did you use? Fresh water pearls, large and medium round Swarovski crystals, large Silver round bead, hammered round Silver toggle clasp, silver head pins.
I practiced before starting this after watching Max' class. When I started it I was quite worried about making a mistake so there was a little stress for me. I think the more you practice the less you'll worry about making mistakes - I hope anyway! So, more practicing for me, I love pearls!

Behold the Most Racist Political Ad of the Year (So Far)
The year's most offensive Super Bowl ad—and the competition was stiff—wasn't seen in most of the country. It was from Michigan GOP Rep. Pete Hoekstra, who's challenging Debbie Stabenow, an incumbent Democratic senator, in the fall. Or as the ad helpfully calls her, Debbie Spend-it-Now—"it" being "money," which Hoekstra fears will all end up in the hands of smiling, cunning Chinese women.
In the ad, an apparently well-educated young Chinese woman rides her bike through a rural rice paddie (Heaven knows why), and recounts Stabenow's support for raising the debt ceiling. Then she says, in perfectly broken English: "Debbie spend so much American money you borrow more and more from us. Your economy get very weak. Ours get very good. We take your jobs. Thank you, Debbie spend-it-now."
Stabenow's campaign is calling it "nothing more than a hypocritical attempt at a Hollywood-style makeover because the fact is, Pete spends a lot." But I think it's fair to say it's a lot more than just a Hollywood-style makeover; it's a play to racist Chinese stereotypes—simulatenously backwards, cold and calculating, anti-American, and capable of communicating only in broken English. Big Trouble in Little China was more progressive than this.
Thankfully, our new favorite Tumblr, "Racist Political Ads," is on the case.

Two days after leader of opposition Devendra Amberkar, with support from ruling Sena-BJP leaders, proposed moving a no-confidence motion against civic chief Sitaram Kunte in the backdrop of his decision to demote zone III deputy municipal commissioner Ramesh Pawar, on Thursday, 16 AMCs and 6 DMCs sent a signed letter expressing disapproval of Kunte's decision. A copy of the letter is with dna.
The letter also suggests creating a "separate post such as DMC health, finance, or DMC to municipal commissioner or zone VIII, for Ram Dhas," instead of demoting Pawar from his present post.
After the Supreme Court upheld the high court decision on DMC promotion regulations, the administration had decided to let Dhas take Pawar's position.
The current DMC to the municipal commissioner, MC Sudhir Naik's position/salary, etc are similar to that of DMC hawkers regulation (the position Pawar held), the letter further says.
"Naik's grade should be elevated and brought on par with either of the three vacant posts in engineering services. This would enable Dhas to assume the position of DMC hawkers regulation," the letter says.
"A couple of DMCs have expressed desire to go on long leave to enable Pawar to take temporary charge of any one of their posts till such a time a new post is created," the letter says.
Under no circumstance should an officer in the rank of a DMC should be demoted, especially when he is not at fault. And moreover, Pawar has not moved the court against the BMC administration, and no court has ruled against him either, the letter adds.
"The BMC administration's approach in this case is humiliating, disappointing and demotivating. Before taking such a decision, the administration should have taken into account the official's clean record, efficiency and integrity," the letter says.

Ways that don't have anything to do with fists and guns and corpses!"''->''"I'm just saying. You think you've got a shot, take it. I'm not worried."''Vixen is a DC Comics character created by Gerry Conway. The character was created c. 1978, intended to become the protagonist of a new series (and consequently the first headlining black female in the DC lineup). However, the DC Implosion cancelled many ongoing titles of the time and ended the plans for new ones. What was intended as her debut story ended up published in ''"Cancelled Comic Cavalcade''" #2 (Fall, 1978), an edition only available to DC employees. But the character was not forgotten. Her official introduction to the reading public was ''"Action Comics''" #521 (July, 1981). Mari Jiwe [=McCabe=], while growing up in an African village, heard the legend of the "Tantu Totem" from her parents. She was the daughter of Reverend Richard Jiwe, the village priest, who was her sole caretaker, as poachers, lead by a man named Kwesi, killed her mother years ago. Reverend Jiwe himself was killed by his half-brother (Mari's uncle) General Maksai. Makasai wanted the Tantu Totem, which had been in Reverend Jiwe's possession.Now orphaned, she fled to America. She set up an identity for herself as Mari [=McCabe=] and used her beauty to become a well-known fashion model in New York City. She used her newfound wealth to travel the world. On a trip back to Africa, she came across her uncle, and stole back the Tantu Totem, using its power to become the Vixen.She's never really been a solo hero, appearing on many teams including the SuicideSquad, the JusticeLeagueOfAmerica, and the ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey.She was a recurring character on ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Unlimited'' and, consequently, its comic book series. Additionally, she made appearances in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold''.She will be receiving her own animated series, taking place in the shared universe of ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' and ''Series/{{The Flash|2014}}''. It is set for release in Fall of 2015. See the poster [[http://i.imgur.com/st4ZTha.jpg here]].With the ''{{New 52}}'' relaunch of the entire DC Universe in September 2011, Vixen was reintroduced as part of the JusticeLeagueInternational.The tropes on this page refer much more heavily to the Comics, than the DCAU counterpart----!!Tropes associated with Vixen include:* EightiesHair: Though she mercifully got a haircut after her appearance on Justice League Unlimited.* AbsoluteCleavage* ActionGirl: Being of the more physical superheroines of DC.* AnimalEyeSpy* AnimalMotifs* AnimalThemedSuperbeing: Being the ''All Animal Abilities'' type.* ArchEnemy: Aku Kwesi, the murderer of her mother.* BadassNormal: Any of the many times she's had her Tantu Totem stolen.* TheBeastmaster* ButNotTooBlack: Averted.

This amazing $5 shareware application, written by Joe Howard, is nearly a perfect solution to the problem. It offers the ability to use the built-in screensaver images (beach, nature, etc) as backgrounds or you can specify your own folder of images. You can then, as seen in the screenshot, individually control whether each image is included in the cycle, how it's placed on the screen, and how likely it is to be chosen for use. You can even choose to install SwitchPic as a stand-alone application or a custom PreferencePane.
About the only caution I would offer is that it does a recursive search on whatever image folder you tell it to use, and if there are a lot of images and sub-folders, your machine can really slow down while it works at cataloging the images. Not a bad bug list for version 1.0 of anything!
So if you want to cycle your desktop images and help a starving college student in the process, download and register (for a whopping $5!) SwitchPic. I'll be registering my version this evening!
[Important note: The program will use a LOT of memory while indexing images! Here's a blurb from the author, posted on VersionTracker: "The problem with the system slowing to a crawl while loading a large set of images doesn't have as much to do with indexing as much as loading all of the pictures to preview. SwitchPic loads an images, resizes to be smaller and then discards the larger image in memory. The problem is that it doesn't release the memory until all of the images have been loaded. When more memory is being taken than you have on the system, it stores it on the slow hard drive. I haven't noticed this since I have a lot of memory so it hasn't needed to access the hard drive. I'll try and fix this and release a updated version early next week."]

21. Testimony of Chuck Ludlam and Paula Hirschoff on S. 732: The Peace Corps Volunteer Empowerment Act: Proposed Technical Amendments
Section 103 should be amended so that RPCV groups can receive funding to build their capacity to provide funding for PCV projects. This is not funding for the projects themselves, but for capacity building to fund these projects (e.g. securing charitable tax exempt status, setting up and enhancing their websites, and covering expenses associated with making grants to Volunteers). The country-specific "friends" groups can be a valuable source of funding for PCV projects and other development projects in country. In short, this provision can serve to supplement the seed funding provisions of the legislation.
21. Testimony of Chuck Ludlam and Paula Hirschoff on S. 732: The Peace Corps Volunteer Empowerment Act: Proposed Technical Amendments
Proposed Technical Amendments
In this testimony we've proposed a series of technical amendments to improve the legislation, which are summarized here.
1. Minimum Seed Money Account: Section 101(c)(4) provides a $1000 limit on seed funding grants. We recommend that the legislation make clear that the Volunteer may apply for multiple grants as long as the total grants during his/her service does not exceed $1000. We recommend that each Volunteer be entitled to a minimum of $250 in seed funding as part of the standard toolkit for service.
2. Clarification Regarding Seed Fundraising: Section 102(b)(1)(A) provides that a Volunteer may fund raise "including by working through the Peace Corps Partnership Program." It might be clearer to say that it's "including but not limited to�" working through this program. We believe this is the intent of the legislation.
3. Expansion of Authorized Projects for Third Goal Funding: Section 103 should be amended so that RPCV groups can receive funding to build their capacity to provide funding for PCV projects. This is not funding for the projects themselves, but for capacity building to fund these projects (e.g. securing charitable tax exempt status, setting up and enhancing their websites, and covering expenses associated with making grants to Volunteers). The country-specific "friends" groups can be a valuable source of funding for PCV projects and other development projects in country. In short, this provision can serve to supplement the seed funding provisions of the legislation.
4. Clarification Regarding Survey of Older Volunteers: Section 104(c) provides that the Director shall conduct an annual survey of older Volunteers. It might be preferable for the survey to focus on the quality of the Peace Corps experience and ways to enhance it and not just on "disincentives and barriers to service."
5. "Substantial Weight": Section 201 provides that "appropriate weight" be given Volunteer views regarding reviews of senior staff and programs. (Page 12, line 4 and line 20). Yet in Section 203�focusing on Volunteer recommendations regarding sites and training�the legislation provides that the views of the Volunteers shall be given "substantial weight." (13, lines 17-18). The "substantial weight" standard should be applied to Volunteer reviews of senior staff performance under Section 202 as well. Effective management and support of Volunteers is the most relevant measure of the effectiveness of these senior staff. This same change needs to be made at page 13, lines 12-13. Section 201 is the most important provision of the legislation and this technical amendment is what's needed to make it effective.
6. Inspector General Access to Survey: The Section 201 surveys of Volunteers should be forwarded to the Peace Corps Office of Inspector General (IG), not just the Peace Corps Regional Directors. This will enhance the effectiveness of the IG Office in improving Peace Corps management and programs.
This is one section from the testimony read into the record on the Peace Corps Volunteer Empowerment Act by Chuck Ludlam and Paula Hirschoff, two RPCVs who are now serving their second tour in Senegal. The rest of the sections can be found by following this link. Their entire report in MS Word format can be downloaded by following this link.

Senator Dodd's Peace Corps Hearings
Read PCOL's executive summary of Senator Chris Dodd's hearings on July 25 on the Peace Corps Volunteer Empowerment Act and why Peace Corps Director Ron Tschetter does not believe the bill would contribute to an improved Peace Corps while four other RPCV witnesses do. Highlights of the hearings included Dodd's questioning of Tschetter on political meetings at Peace Corps Headquarters and the Inspector General's testimony on the re-opening of the Walter Poirier III investigation.
Dodd issues call for National Service
Standing on the steps of the Nashua City Hall where JFK kicked off his campaign in 1960, Presidential Candidate Chris Dodd issued a call for National Service. "Like thousands of others, I heard President Kennedy's words and a short time later joined the Peace Corps." Dodd said his goal is to see 40 million people volunteering in some form or another by 2020. "We have an appetite for service. We like to be asked to roll up our sleeves and make a contribution," he said. "We haven't been asked in a long time."
Public diplomacy rests on sound public policy
When President Kennedy spoke of "a long twilight struggle," and challenged the country to "ask not," he signaled that the Cold War was the challenge and framework defining US foreign policy. The current challenge is not a struggle against a totalitarian foe. It is not a battle against an enemy called "Islamofascism." From these false assumptions flow false choices, including the false choice between law enforcement and war. Instead, law enforcement and military force both must be essential instruments, along with diplomacy, including public diplomacy. But public diplomacy rests on policy, and to begin with, the policy must be sound. Read more.
Ambassador revokes clearance for PC Director

A statement from Peace Corps' Press Office says that the Peace Corps strongly disagrees with the ambassador�s decision. On June 8 the White House announced that Retzer is being replaced as Ambassador. Latest: Senator Dodd has placed a hold on Mark Green's nomination to be Ambassador to Tanzania.

Suspect confesses in murder of PCV
Search parties in the Philippines discovered the body of Peace Corps Volunteer Julia Campbell near Barangay Batad, Banaue town on April 17. Director Tschetter expressed his sorrow at learning the news. �Julia was a proud member of the Peace Corps family, and she contributed greatly to the lives of Filipino citizens in Donsol, Sorsogon, where she served,� he said. Latest: Suspect Juan Duntugan admits to killing Campbell. Leave your thoughts and condolences .
Warren Wiggins: Architect of the Peace Corps
Warren Wiggins, who died at 84 on April 13, became one of the architects of the Peace Corps in 1961 when his paper, "A Towering Task," landed in the lap of Sargent Shriver, just as Shriver was trying to figure out how to turn the Peace Corps into a working federal department. Shriver was electrified by the treatise, which urged the agency to act boldly. Read Mr. Wiggins' obituary and biography, take an opportunity to read the original document that shaped the Peace Corps' mission, and read John Coyne's special issue commemorating "A Towering Task."

Chris Dodd's Vision for the Peace Corps
Senator Chris Dodd (RPCV Dominican Republic) spoke at the ceremony for this year's Shriver Award and elaborated on issues he raised at Ron Tschetter's hearings. Dodd plans to introduce legislation that may include: setting aside a portion of Peace Corps' budget as seed money for demonstration projects and third goal activities (after adjusting the annual budget upward to accommodate the added expense), more volunteer input into Peace Corps operations, removing medical, healthcare and tax impediments that discourage older volunteers, providing more transparency in the medical screening and appeals process, a more comprehensive health safety net for recently-returned volunteers, and authorizing volunteers to accept, under certain circumstances, private donations to support their development projects. He plans to circulate draft legislation for review to members of the Peace Corps community and welcomes RPCV comments.
He served with honor
One year ago, Staff Sgt. Robert J. Paul (RPCV Kenya) carried on an ongoing dialog on this website on the military and the peace corps and his role as a member of a Civil Affairs Team in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have just received a report that Sargeant Paul has been killed by a car bomb in Kabul. Words cannot express our feeling of loss for this tremendous injury to the entire RPCV community. Most of us didn't know him personally but we knew him from his words. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends. He was one of ours and he served with honor.

Teens death remains shrouded in mystery
Bhatoli (Una), May 23 Mohils father Satish Kumar of Bhatoli village today alleged that he was aggrieved at the way police officers were investigating the case of death of his child. On May 2, he went to a nearby place along with his friend Shanu where some function was to take place. According to eyewitnesses, around 7.30 pm he parted with Shanu just about 200 ft away from his house. When he did not reach home till 9 pm, his parents raised an alarm and started searching for him. A complaint was also lodged and a case of kidnapping was registered. On May 4, Mohils body was found in a deserted well near Bhabhore Sahib village of Punjab. The well was located about 2.5 km from the house of Mohil on the banks of the Sutlej. Since the well was covered with bushes, it seemed that the body was dumped there so that it was not recovered easily. Sarita, Mohils mother and also pardhan of the village, said her child had no pressure from home. In addition to that, no one was aware about the well from which the body was recovered. People had stopped using it since long. How come my son found out the well and then jumped into it for committing suicide, she alleged. In the post-mortem report, doctors opined that the cause of death was due to drowning. They also expressed the opinion that the death seemed to have occurred 12 to 24 hours before the discovery of body from the well. The parents alleged that it clearly indicated that their son was killed somewhere else and thrown into the well just 12 to 24 hours before the body was found. In a written communication to the Una SP, they have demanded that the police should register a case of murder and investigate into the matter rather than suggesting that it was a case of suicide. Una SP Santosh Patial said, We are keeping all options open in the case. We are not ruling out any theory. Advice of forensic expert Dr Swamy from Kangra is also being sought. He said the police was also waiting for the report of chemical examination of viscera, to reach any conclusion. Regarding the case of kidnapping, he said it was registered when the child was not traceable. |
Receding snowline hits power generation
Shimla, May 23 The hill state which used to have surplus power during summer is now facing shortage, thanks to the decline in generation due to low and fluctuating discharge. The generation dipped from 257 lakh units on May 5 to 180 lakh units early this week against a daily demand of 210 lakh units. The state electricity board has been forced to impose power cuts in industrial areas. The situation is going to worsen as more industrial projects come into operation over the next year or so. The main reason for low and variable discharge is that the seasonal snow cover during winter is not only shrinking but has also become leaner with each passing year. With middle ranges hardly receiving any snow during winter, the perennial surface water sources are being largely fed by snow deposits in higher ranges. As a result, the discharge is declining, particularly during the early part of summer as the lean white cover on hills melts away quickly. For instance, the Rohtang Pass, which used to remain closed till the first half of June till 1990s, reopened on April 15 this year. There are also wide fluctuations in the discharge as a mild spell of rain and snow causes mercury to dip sharply in the higher ranges, affecting the melting of snow. The 300 MW Baspa projects provided the best example of such fluctuations. Its generation came down to almost half from 64 lakh units to 34 lakh units. Similarly, the Larji project was generating only 14 lakh units as against the normal 22 lakh units. Global warming apart, the hill state is becoming a victim of the wrong policies of government, which has been allowing excessive and unplanned construction on the hills and is paying no attention to the sustainability of water sources. Even though the discharge is declining as evident from the reduced power generation in existing projects, the government last year allowed more than two dozen projects to increase their capacity from 5 MW to 25 MW, defying all logic. The manner in which the government is allowing private universities, real estate projects and power-intensive industry to come up, the situation will only worsen. The only way out to ensure the sustainability of water sources is to declare areas over 3000 ft as eco-sensitive zones and severely restrict construction activity there as the hills have been already burdened much beyond their carrying capacity. Ecologically fragile hills are not meant to promote real estate business and large-scale industrialisation. Meanwhile, the Himalaya Niti Abhiyan, apex body of non-government organisations, has demanded scrapping of the apartment Act with immediate effect and has opposed extension of industrial package in the existing form. |
Tourists flock Manali to beat the heat
Manali, May 23 The main attraction for tourists is snow at the Rohtang Pass. A festive atmosphere prevailed at the pass, as tourists were seen enjoying yak and horse rides, skiing and having photo sessions. Every tourist who visits Kullu-Manali loves to visit the Rohtang Pass --- the most popular destination. Besides affording a magnificent view of the snow-clad peaks of the Chandra Bhaga range, the pass is a source of the Beas. The 51-km-long road to the Rohtang Pass is replete with magnificent views of the snow covered Pir Panjal ranges to the north and lush green Kullu valley to the south. |
Shikari Devi sanctuary faces threat from van mafia
Janjheli (Mandi), May 23 A joint wildlife wing, Forest Department and police team combed the sanctuary last week and detected that 55 trees had been cut in the Churashni and Dev Parala beats, team members revealed. The department had suspended two forest guards - Khem Chand and Momeshar - along with deputy ranger Mahant Ram on the ground that they submitted a false report on illegal felling to the Kullu DFO (wildlife). However, both conservator of wildlife Ajay Srivastva and Mandi conservator BD Suyal have submitted reports to the principal chief conservator of forests on illegal felling in the sanctuary. The reports recommended suspension of range officer Dalip Singh as they found him negligent in cross-checking illegal felling. But the reports lost sight of the fact that surveillance and monitoring also failed in checking the alleged mafias-field staff nexus. The report also found that there was no field visit by wildlife official in the last three months, sources added. Kullu DFO (wildlife) BS Rana said he came to know about illegal felling in the third week of April, but the field staff filed a wrong report on it. We combed the sanctuary and found that 51 deodar trees were cut fresh, he said, adding that it was difficult to monitor the sanctuary from Kullu. The DFO wildlife sits at Kullu and handles both Mandi and Kullu sanctuaries. He said the uprooted trees were lying there over the years, as salvaging was not allowed under the law. I have only five guards to handle 11 beats, which is a vast area, he explained. Srivastva also blamed the field staff for filing wrong reports on illegal felling. |
UPA has brought no gain to HP, says BJP
Shimla, May 23 Addressing a press conference here, BJP spokesperson and chairman of Himachal Urban Development Authority Ganesh Dutt said the Congress-led governments at the Centre had always discriminated against Himachal. The one-year rule of the UPA has proved to be a curse for Himachal as none of our demands, including extension of the industrial package and increasing the reduced food grain and sugar quota, had been met, he said. The BJP leaders lamented that even though the Union cabinet had two MPs from Himachal, the states interests were not being protected. With neither the Prime Minister nor UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi giving weightage to the opinion of the two ministers, their continuation in the cabinet is seen as an act of deceiving the people of Himachal, he said. He said one-year rule of the Congress-led UPA regime had been marked by price rise, corruption and divisive policies. Contrary to the Congress claims of being pro-poor, it is the common man who has been hit the most due to price rise, he said. With inflation touching an all-time high, the UPA regime had failed to take any effective steps to provide relief to the people, he added. The BJP spokesperson said the UPA regime had done a lot of injustice with the people of the state by not extending the industrial package given by the NDA regime when Vajpayee was the Prime Minister. The UPA regime has no right to take back what has been given by the NDA regime and this is bound to adversely affect industrial investment in the state, he said. He said Himachal had been at the receiving end even with regard to recruitment in the Army based on population. He said the recommendations of the 13th Finance Commission had also resulted in huge financial loss to the hill state. |
Felling of Trees
Shimla, May 23 The court further directed the authorities that they should also disclose in their affidavits that how many trees have been felled. While passing the order, the court observed that it had been reported in some newspapers that detonator fuse wires were recovered from the residences of forest officials. It also sought explanation to this and asked the authorities concerned that what action had been taken against the said officials. The court directed the principal chief conservator (forest) to visit the area in question and after verifying the factual position of the spot file detailed report before the court. It passed this order on suo-motto proceedings initiated by the court itself on the news items that appeared in the newspapers with regard to large-scale felling of trees in Kulbagh protected forests in Shimla district. The court directed the state government to file its reply within two weeks and listed the matter for June 4. |
State to get five polytechnics
Kangra, May 23 This was stated by Special Secretary-cum-Director Technical Education, state government, SS Guleria while talking to the mediapersons here. He was here in connection with the annual day function of the local Government Polytechnic. He said these five polytechnics would be started in the current financial year. He said there were already 25 polytechnics functioning in the state. These polytechnics will be started in Kulu, Sirmour, Bilaspur, Lahul and Spiti and in Kinnaur districts during the current financial year. A three year plan has been formulated, under which the polytechnics will be upgraded, he added. He said under the plan each polytechnic would have at least five trades to impart training to the youths. |
NGO to involve locals in checking pollution
Shimla, May 23 The group organised a three-day training programme for local people with the help environmental activist Shweta Narayan, who had been campaigning against pollution in the industrial areas of Tamil Nadu under the banner of Community Environmental Monitoring Campaign. Several simple methods have been evolved by which communities affected by pollution can monitor and document the air, dust and water pollution levels in their areas. Documenting their common sense experiences in a scientific manner can provide the best evidence of pollution which cannot be refuted by the pollution control board and other agencies, says Narayan. Manshi Asher, an activist and researcher who is also a part of the organising team, points out that out of 1,000 units that operate in the BBN area, almost 200 do not have a valid licence, according to information obtained under the RTI Act.
Security at shrines vital, says Dhumal
Bilaspur, May 23 He said the state had taken up the matter of construction of a ropeway from Anandpur Sahib to Naina Devi with the Punjab government. Besides improving the condition of roads to Naina Devi, close circuit cameras had been fixed. He said officers had been assigned the job of monitoring the security arrangements during the fairs. All popular temples were being equipped with adequate facilities for ensuring foolproof security to the devotees. He further said a Deputy Superintendent of Police would be posted at Naina Devi permanently and Kot Kehloor and Suhargat would come under his jurisdiction, which would further strengthen the security at Bhakra Dam. Dhumal added that the first Women India Reserve Battalion would start functioning from Bassi soon, for which the recruitment was on. The Chief Minister distributed prizes to the winners of the wrestling competition organised in Naina Devi. Local MLA Randhir Sharma was
also present. |
Nod to 16 state awards for
school teachers
Shimla, May 23 While the government has decided to confer 16 state awards annually, the national awards will be given by the Government of India. This is a step towards ensuring quality education to the children in the state besides making the state an educational hub of the country. The state award will carry a cash prize of Rs 40,000, a silver medal, Himachali cap, shawl, citation and a certificate. The national award will offer a cash reward of Rs 60,000. Teachers with a least 15 years of regular teaching experience and headmasters and principals with 20 years of regular teaching and administrative experience will be considered for the reward.

Each district will recommend at least two names in every category. |
Soon, village courts for speedy justice
Sundernagar, May 23 Mishra was here to address the Legal Literacy Camp that was organised at Barot in Mandi District. He said the HP Legal Services Authority was committed to providing free legal aid to those who earn up to Rs 50,000 per annum whereas there was no income bar for women. He further said the SCs, STs and women were eligible irrespective of their financial status. He appealed to the public to approach Lok Adalats being organised at the sub divisional level. Three legal aid clinics have also been set up at zonal level in Shimla, Kangra and Mandi. Free consultation was being given by senior advocates every Monday and Friday in the offices of Sessions Judges, Shimla, Kangra and Mandi. He said the Legal Service Authority had planned to organise camps at educational institutes to deal with the menace of ragging. Nearly 200 persons interacted with the high court judge. JM Mantan, member secretary, HP State Legal Services Authority, said Himachal Pradesh was the first state to have implemented the provisions of the Legal Services Authority Act. Sessions Judge, Mandi, Bhim Chand Sharma, Judicial Magistrate, Jogindernagar, Jai Lal Azad and some senior advocates were also present. Another legal literacy camp was also organised at Bhargaon village, wherein Chief Judicial Magistrate Mandi Virender Sharma addressed the gathering. |
Dam oustees hail CM for relief measures
Bilaspur, May 23 A press release issued here yesterday said earlier committee general-secretary Jai Kumar had presented a 48-point demand charter of the oustees to the Chief Minister and had sought solutions to these problems in this meeting, out of which the Chief Minister ordered that the relief be provided on at least 24 immediate and pressing issues while the remaining would be discussed at the next meeting. The oustees were particularly thankful to the Chief Minister for his immediate response in giving rights of a dead oustee to his or her successors, giving remaining oustees a choice to get rehabilitation plot on the government land near their present place of residence or village, re-survey of connecting of Berry Dadollan bridge with Khairiyan instead of Talwaad village. |
CM for uplift of farmers
Bilaspur, May 23 This was stated by Chief Minister Prem Kumar Dhumal while addressing a gathering of the villagers. He also inaugurated Rs 5.29 crore Pir Bhiyanu drinking water supply scheme at Talyana about 40 km from here yesterday. The Chief Minister said, The scheme has started providing sufficient drinking water to 14,000 people of some 24 villages and 50 other smaller hamlets of five gram panchayayts of Tiun-Sriyun Dhars of Bilaspur Sadar constituency. The Chief Minister gave a call to all villagers to save each and every drop of water. He said, Nature is changing fast and we must prepare ourselves to face challenges of acute scarcity of water in future due to unprecedented process of global warming. He said the government was spending Rs 20 to Rs 30 per litre of drinking water that was being supplied to people through the IPH Department. Dhumal appreciated efforts of the farmers of Bilaspur district, who have made a distinctive mark in setting up of the green houses and growing of unseasonal flowers, vegetables and fruits that have a good market. He said the government had come out with Rs 353 crore-project named Din Dayal Upadhyaya Kisan Baghwan Smridhi Yojna, under which the farmers were being provided 80 per cent subsidy of the total cost of setting up of the poly-houses. He said from this year the subsidy for those living under the poverty line, has been further increased to 90 per cent, which was the record subsidy ever provided anywhere. |

Roy Oswalt's second minor-league start involved giving up a grand slam to Royals stud prospect Wil Myers on the way to allowing five runs in four innings at Triple-A.
He'll move down a level to Double-A for his third tune-up outing tomorrow night and if things go well he could be on the verge of joining the Rangers' rotation, especially with Derek Holland on the disabled list and fill-in Alexi Ogando now sidelined by a groin injury.
When he signed with the Rangers last month Oswalt indicated that he'd likely need four starts in the minors to get ready, but if Ogando joins Holland and Neftali Feliz on the DL the Rangers may be tempted to push up that timetable a bit.
- euie48 - Jun 11, 2012 at 11:40 AM
He goes from T-A to D-A and is now ready for the show? Explain?
- CJ - Jun 11, 2012 at 11:48 AM
happens all the time. Star players rehab according to most team's minor league home schedules Easy. For two reasons:
1) reduces unnecessary travel
2) shares the boost attendance and revenue across multiple teams in the Ranger's systemThis has far more to do with money and convenience than it does the level of competition or even Oswalt's getting knocked around last week. Then, he was most likely treating it like a ST game and sharpening a specific pitch or trying something a little different. For example, if he was working on refining a curve, after he throws it 22 times in the first 2 innings, even an AAA guy can figure out to sit on it and smash the thing next time. It's not like Oswalt's trying to pitch a no-hitter or anything. It's far more to his benefit to refine and sharpen his arsenal than it is to try to strikeout a bunch of overmatched kids.

Well said… the O's just did the same thing Brian Roberts.
- jimbo1949 - Jun 11, 2012 at 12:04 PM
Wait, Brian Roberts is working on his curve ball? I thought his slider was a little off last time.
- CJ - Jun 11, 2012 at 12:12 PM
very true ravens…in Roberts' case it makes even more sense: reducing travel also increase's an injured player's ability to stay on a regimented training schedule without it being interrupted by bus trips, etc. Of course that doesn't apply quite so much in Oswalt's situation since he isn't hurt, so I didn't mention it initially.
It's also easier for the big league club to send the GM or whoever to keep an eye on him if the AA team is somewhat local. Especially in this case where they have to make a tough decision whether to bring him up a week early or not because they're so thin in the rotation right now

So let me understand this… he's behind the rest of the class and hes going to catch up by going slower? COO-COO!
- CJ - Jun 11, 2012 at 12:26 PM
yeah, because the yankees always rehab their stars in AAA because it's the better competition as opposed to in AA Trenton which is closer to their team's headquarters.
Wait, did I say always? I meant pretty much never. Where did Jeter rehab last year? Trenton. Where is Robertson rehabbing this week? Trenton.
But I guess you'll just spout off that the Yankees are smart for doing this because, well, they're the Yankees, but the Rangers are stupid for doing the same exact thing, because, well, they aren't the Yankees. And I'd expect nothing less from you.
- number42is1 - Jun 11, 2012 at 12:35 PM
or…. you know… you can not be such an ass… w/e
Bart: Let me get this straight: we're behind the rest of our class and we're going to catch up to them by going slower than they are? Coo Coo!
[rest of the class starts mindlessly chanting "Coo coo!", forcing the teacher to individually snap them out of it]
- CJ - Jun 11, 2012 at 1:41 PM
that was the worst attempt at a Simpson's reference I've seen in quite a while. Sorry I missed it. But like any joke, if you have to resort to explaining it, it wasn't funny.
- number42is1 - Jun 11, 2012 at 2:15 PM
yea it was probably me not you…
- sportsguygerald - Jun 11, 2012 at 12:46 PM
It's not the competition, but Round Rock went on the road and Frisco is playing at home. Frisk happens to be about 20 miles from Arlington. The Rangers have a homestand this week and he can use the Rangers facilities for the between starts regimen as well as the staff monitoring the start. He needs to get his arm stretched out more than anything and throwing pitches to AA hitters is no different than throwing to AAA hitters.

French Onion Soup
Rich, flavorful beef broth, sweet caramelized onions and a great melting cheese that hardens around the bowl into seductively crispy bits are a must for this classic.
Plus: More Appetizer Recipes and Tips
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus softened butter, for spreading
- 3 large onions (about 2 pounds), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
- Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons dry sherry
- 1 quart Rich Beef Stock
- Freshly ground pepper
- Four 1/2-inch-thick slices sourdough bread, cut into 4-inch rounds
- 1 bouquet garni, made with 1 bay leaf, 1 thyme sprig, 2 juniper berries and 2 flat-leaf parsley sprigs, tied in cheesecloth
- 2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese (about 6 ounces)
- Melt the butter in a large enameled cast-iron casserole. Add the onions and a pinch of salt, cover and cook over moderate heat, stirring once or twice, until the onions soften, about 10 minutes. Uncover and cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until the onions are lightly browned, about 40 minutes.
- Stir in the sherry. Add the stock and bouquet garni and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat until the soup has a deep flavor, about 30 minutes. Discard the bouquet garni and season the soup with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter the bread on both sides and place on a baking sheet. Toast the bread for 15 minutes, turning the slices halfway through, until golden and crisp but not dried out. Raise the oven temperature to 425°.
- Bring the soup to a simmer, ladle it into 4 deep ovenproof bowls and sprinkle with half of the cheese. Place a crouton in each bowl and sprinkle on the remaining cheese. Bake the bowls of soup on a baking sheet in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling. Serve hot.
Make Ahead
The recipe can be prepared through Step 3 up to 3 days ahead. Suggested Pairing
A light, fruity Beaujolais will match the sweetness of the onions and the nuttiness of the Gruyère in this rich soup.

Let's Be Offended
Submitted By Todd on May 2nd at 8:44am
A new GOP ad attacking the President's first 100 days has caused some offense. See if you can find the offensive clip.
I couldn't find it either, but apparently it's the shot of President Obama sitting at a table with some other leaders. Word is, the others are in the Hispanic Congressional Congress.
"It's disrespectful to the hard-working Latinos across the nation, serving in every sector of our economy and on our military's front lines," Velazquez's statement continued. "The CHC demands an apology from the Minority Leader for this insensitivity and that the video be removed immediately."I wish the video would be removed as well, but my reasons are different. I think it's a lousy ad - no power in creating the emotional response intended, and it doesn't make a convincing argument that Obama has made the nation weaker. That argument can easily be made in a forceful way.
"Republicans are once again resorting to fear tactics because they have no new ideas or constructive policies to offer," Katie Grant, spokesman for House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), told The Hill. "The American people have already rejected their politics of fear, and this will be no different. Democrats are providing real change and real solutions, which is exactly what the American people expect and deserve from their leaders."But the ad, made by Congressman Boehner and displayed on his webpage, is designed to stoke the base, not educate the star-struck masses.

Fly Tying
Get news on sales & specials
For streamer bodies, ribbing, etc. Gold on one side, silver on the other.
Average Customer Rating: (5 Reviews) Write Review
good product
Reviewer: A viewer from Grand Rapids, MI US
I like this tinsel, but found it hard to tie with. It keeps wanting to fold or crease when i wrapped it. if you are tying large flies it is easier to work with. for small flies I just found it to be too wide.
great streamer tinsel
Reviewer: A viewer from Hinsdale, MA US
I have always used this tinsel. I use the large width for wrapping streamer bodies with a silver wire rib and some added cement and they are extremely durable. The small size is perfect for ribbing on grey ghosts and black ghosts.

Released: Jul 01st, 1989
Running Time: 85
Director: Paul Thomas
Company: VCA Pictures
Tom Byron, Aja (I), Jamie Gillis, Mike Horner, Kristy Leigh, Shanna McCullough, Nikki Knights, Ron Jeremy
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
If we were to take Paul Thomas's At the Pornies as a serious thesis on the state of video reviews, then the editorial staff at this magazine is walking around bowlegged and driving around in Maseratis, courtesy blow jobs and unmarked bills in sealed envelopes.
But since that's as far from reality as House Speaker Jim Wright's from the White House, then we must look to the humor of it, the premise of which is funny as a crutch. But that doesn't make At The Pornies no less entertaining and infinitely better than the current video garbage floating out there.
Mike Horner and Ron Jeremy play Sissy and Egbert (a parody that should be finally laid to rest), a couple of acerbic sex video critics who inspire professional jealousy from another critic Rock Reed (Jamie Gillis) who himself is a little light in the loafers. Gillis wants to capture these guys in compromising situations to discredit them and sets up a hidden camera scam using the bimbo star of Rhonda Does Rhode Island, (Aja) and Kristie Leigh. Of course Horner and Jeremy are out to discredit each other, making Gillis' job that much easier.
Gillis swishes it up outrageously, and the sex scenes are shot fairly enticingly. Director Thomas even has the gracious humor of taking a shot at himself. Viewing a Thomas clip from one of the Brat features, Horner quips, "we have a video that starts nowhere and goes real slow from there." That's an epitaph that can register on most tombstones these days.

Masoud, A.A. (2005) Solving the Narrow Corridor Problem in Potential Field-Guided Autonomous Robots. Robotics and Automation, 2005. ICRA 2005. Proceedings of the 2005 IEEE International conference, 1.
| PDF 18Kb | |
Microsoft Word 26Kb |
This paper tackles the issue of converting the guidance signal from the gradient of a potential field into a control signal that can both guide an autonomous robot and effectively manage its dynamics. Particular emphasis is placed on dealing with the "narrow corridor" artifact reported by Koren and Borenstien [1] which the attractor-repeller potential field paradigm proposed by Khatib [2] suffers from. The suggested solution is based on a novel concept this paper introduces called: nonlinear, anisotropic, dampening forces. In addition to eliminating the narrow corridor artifact, improving the quality of the trajectory, the suggested solution significantly increases the speed of the robot. Theoretical development along with simulation results are provided.

Waltraud Schelkle is an Associate Professor of Political Economy at the European Institute and has been at LSE since autumn 2001, teaching courses on the political economy of European integration at MSc and PhD level. She is an Adjunct Professor of economics at the Economics Department of the Free University of Berlin where she did a post-doctorate degree (Habilitation) in 1999 with a thesis on "The new theory of monetary integration" (published in German in 2001). Dr Schelkle is also a (non-resident) Senior Fellow at the American Institute for Contemporary German Studies (AICGS), Johns Hopkins University, Washington D.C. and Chair of the Advisory Board of the Centre for Social Policy Research (Zentrum für Sozialpolitik) in Bremen.
She has previously worked as a development economist, from 1989-2002 as a staff member of the German Institute of Development in Berlin with a research focus on the financial system in development and doing her first PhD on India's development as a monetary economy since Independence (London 1994). Other earlier appointments include two Research Fellowships at Johns Hopkins University, Washington, DC, and Visiting Professor of International Economic Relations at the Free University of Berlin before coming to London. Her research interests are the evolving economic governance of EMU and social policy reforms directed at financial markets.
Political Economy of welfare state reform, understood broadly as encompassing the restructuring of social risk management induced both by market creation and integration in Europe and by the macroeconomic framework in the monetary union, with a specific interest in how financial regulation is now used for social policy purposes; the evolving framework of economic governance in the EU and in member states, in particular the use of different methods of policy coordination by technocratic elites at the European and the national level. Current projects are on 'Beyond the regulatory polity. Analyzing the integration of core state powers in the EU' (convened by Philipp Genschel and Markus Jachtenfuchs), on 'the dynamics of the Euro-are financial crisis' (convened by James Caporaso and Martin Rhodes) as well as an own project on 'The finance-social security nexus', supported by a small STICERD grant.

Building Envelopes: Component Inspections and Replacement
Part 1: Building Envelopes: Minimize Air, Water Leaks
Part 2: Building Envelopes: Inspection Requirements for EIFS
Part 3: How to Replace Building-Envelope Components
How to Replace Building-Envelope Components
By James Piper, P.E. September 2010 - Windows & Exterior Walls
Regular inspections can reveal the condition of the building envelope. By tracking these inspections over time, managers can identify trends in component condition and performance. As the number of problems with a particular component increases, managers can begin the process of looking for a replacement product. Even with the best maintenance, time, use, and exposure will take their tolls on envelope components. Eventually, some components will reach the point at which it is not economical to continue to maintain them. Replacement becomes the most appropriate option.
This situation opens a range of options for managers. It gives them the opportunity to select replacement materials that offer lower maintenance requirements, improved aesthetics, increased energy efficiency, or all of the above. For the replacements to work, managers must carefully consider the options available to them. They must closely examine and compare materials and envelope systems. For energy efficiency, that often means modeling the performance of the building envelope and analyzing the energy impact of various options to see which offers the fastest return on investment.
Managers might have to make trade-offs when selecting options for a particular building. But by evaluating different building-envelope options and scheduling their replacement, managers can have it all — improved energy efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and more effective building protection, while remaining cost competitive.
