There was no let up from power cuts for the Capital on Tuesday as the generation continued to remain insufficient to meet the demand. Several areas across the city complained of power cuts for up to six hours.
Residents of Dwarka, Mayur Vihar, Nizamuddin, Okhla, Greater Kailash, Patparganj and Janakpuri reported power cuts several times a day. "There were three power cuts of about 1.5 hours each. The situation has been like this for the past several days now," complained Aishwarya Pillai, a resident of Sector 6 in Dwarka.
In Jungpura too, power outages were reported several times on Tuesday. "The cuts began at about 11 a.m., and through the day we have had load shedding for an hour at various intervals," said Jungpura Extension resident Namita Kumar.
Grid indiscipline
Power department officials continued to blame grid indiscipline for the cuts and said the situation is likely to ease off in the next couple of days.
"We are requesting other States to not cause disruption in supply by indiscriminate overdrawal. The NTPC too has been asked to improve its generation, and the situation is expected to improve in the next few days," said an official.
On Tuesday, the shortfall was about 1,000 MW from various power stations, including NTPC's Dadri (Uttar Pradesh), Singrauli (Madhya Pradesh), Farakka (West Bengal) and Kahalgaon (Bihar) power plants.
The Delhi Government on Monday had requested the NTPC to ensure supply of full quota of power to Delhi while directing all discoms to try and procure power from open market even at higher rates.
On Tuesday, the peak demand for power was 3520 MW at 7.19 p.m., while the city's total generation was 965 MW.

Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
I would like to completely disable the "Group By" and file grouping in
Windows Explorer in Vista. I detest this ill-conceived "feature" .
I' ve seen articles on how to "reset" the views so they stick and they're
only temporary solutions as Vista eventually start grouping again.. I'm **S
I C K** of this so-called feature and it does nothing but hamper my work
efficiency and lower my productivity.. No I don't want to learn how to use
it. I want it turned O F F and to N E V E R return.
Give me the option to turn this idiot-inspired feature off please! I'm SICK
of turning it off.
God I hate Vista! ...aka Windows ME (squared)..
Why do you "detest" this "ill-conceived" feature? Many people find it a
considerable enhancement from previous versions....
Right click in a folder.
Group By -> None.
Press Alt.
Choose Tools from the bar that appears below the navigation bar.
So it's Tools -> Folder Options -> View -> Apply to all folders.
Should do the trick.
PS: You don't like the grouping feature, for me it's one of the most
beautiful thing added to the OS.
Most of the time I prefer Vista over XP, but there's some annoying features. I like Office 2007 over older versions, too, but there's also some stuff, which were - in my opinion - better in Office2003 (like categories and advanced search in Outlook, user interface in Access..). Haven't tried Windows 7 yet - mainly because of the hussle with bootmanager in WinXP,Vista,Win2k8 multi-boot - but I've heard, it's not bad.
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
Grouping was created for people who aren't organized. For those of us who are
organized this makes it harder to find files and slows us down. For every
one of you who claim it to be the most useful feature there are 10 like
myself hate it. I can scan a list of files for what I want faster than I can
sort though which friggin group it's in.. For those of you who ask why I
destest it - Obviously you didn't read my post where I state clearly that it
hampers my efficency and lowers my productivity. I can find the file I need
MUCH quicker in an list of details than with this grouped view with all those
headers and excessive white space. Grouping breaks up the list and in
folders with few files in it there tends to be more text for groups and white
space displayed than is used for the files themselves..
The main problem with it is that it won't stay turned off.. Linux may not
be the solution indeed but Apple could very well be and this ill-conceived
feature that's been imposed upon everyone with an off switch that was made in
China or India is on the top of a list of 18 reasons I've complied (to date)
to scrap the windows platform and switch to a Mac.
Like I said.. Vista is ME - Marketing Edition (squared).. This is the O/S
that Microsoft Marketing always wanted.. It's not my imagination that
millions worldwide are avoiding it due to it's repuation for poor
performance, unpredictable behavior, lower productivity, annoying
features/functionality, and contains nothing compelling enough to invest the
very significant resources into switching. It's a stop-gap product that's as
big of a mistake as the original ME.
Vista lowers productivity, and does not increase it as the massive marketing
machine likes to claim. There are good reasons that people are avoiding it
and this is one of them.
RE: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
For those of you who love this feature, please don't pollute my thread with
proclamations of love for this feature. I'm looking for a serious solution
to permanently turning it off, other than the "Apply to all folders" that
doesn't work. If you don't have a solution please refrain from responding..
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
I, too, hate grouping and seem unable to kill it. I think Microsoft Update
may be trashing my laborious saving of my preferred template to each of the
so called types of explorer windows (document, pictures, etc.) Like Bryan, I
use my computer to work, not play: not edit video, not create multimedia
experiences, but WORK. I wish Vista would just let me work. If you do find a
permanent across the board way to kill grouping, please share it here.
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
I 100% agree with Bryan. I AM freeking annoyed at Vista for randomly deciding to turn this "lovely" feature on. I'd like to deinstall its subroutines so that my 640gb hdd doesnt have to suffer pollution of 50kb of information that randomly decides to throw me into random noob windows user category.
I'd like to disable/uninstall/dump/never think of/ again of this feature.
If anyone knows a REAL way to disable it, please do tell.
p.s. setting it in folder options and applying to all folders does NOTHING but aggravate the unsuspecting victim trying it out. Vista just suddenly remembers it has this "brilliant", new feature that I haven't tried in couple of days and turns it on by itself...
I like Vista overall.. but this is driving me nuts.
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
I too would like to disable this group by feature, but nothing I've read
seems to directly address that. I'm sure it's a really cool feature, but
it's not for me.
Basically when I move my mouse up to drag a column width bar this thing
gets in the way. I don't want to have to focus my attention on precision
clicking to ensure I grab the right vertical bar. I want it to go away!
When I click "Group By" in the folder area itself, there is no "none"
option as I read somewhere. I'll worry later about trying to get this to
apply to all folders, which sounds like it's going to be an equal
nightmare lol
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
I've had this "feature" re-appear on many occasions. I, too, hate this. I'm sick of the truly sycophantic Microsoft groupies telling me what's useful for me and what's not useful for me.
Grouping, like so much of Vista, is a speed bump in my day. I have to slow down to deal with it and, frankly, it pisses me off.
While grouping may work for some people, and I have no problem with the option being available, I can not stand that since I've gotten this Vista machine I have had to fight with my computer to get it to work in the way I need it to. I am the only one in my organization with a Vista machine and because of my experience it's going to stay that way. At the very least we are going to wait for Win7 or perhaps consider moving to a new OS altogether....something that we have been considering for a couple years.
MS long ago lost sight of the point that not everyone does things the same way. This is the absolute strength of the Linux model, where everything is modular and not part of the main OS.
I would love to find a permanent solution to the grouping issue, among many, and I will continue to steadfastly refuse to deploy Vista machines to my users.
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
Forgive me for resurrecting a mostly dead discussion thread, but I want to shed some light on the situation:
In the 'Details' view in Vista, the end of each column name has a tiny section you can click for a drop down box that lets you configure the column and column grouping. I strongly suspect that everyone who seems to get 'Grouping' turned on at random is accidentally clicking that column and a group option together in a fraction of a second while they are attempting to change the column length. You cannot, as far as I can tell, disable those column helpers.
That's definitely the problem that has been driving me crazy. I shut off grouping for all directories, and then when I need to resize a column to see more information I click the wrong thing and *poof* I'm grouping in some irritating and unintentional fashion.
I can't ditch Vista, I need it for testing software compatibility. But I have ditched explorer. Back to ye olde command prompt for all file navigation.
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
First of all: Brian you are my god to post this message (and totally agree with whatever you said and more!), Keisaa you are my god to come with the answer.
Still hoping for a permanent solution.
Michael_S: I don't have that drop down box there (never seen it??) as I have my own columns as I put them up myself and STILL it polutes my screen with groups. Sort of about right after I forgot how to turn them off again... popping up here and there "THINKING" for me. I hate programs who THINK for me as if everybody is a F*** noob.
Same for me, I need windows for my work. It would be great if the next version came with a "Stop thinking for me"-button.
Thanks again!
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
Thank you. I found this and now I know I'm not alone.
At least once a week I change folder view to "Details" and go "Apply to all
folders". It's a complete bleedin' joke.
All I want is to work at my computer without it trying to tell me what I should do.
I don't want sounds, videos, or galleries and I certainly don't want 15 different
unrecognizable programs trying to get through my firewall every day (why the
heck does disc defragmentor need access to the internet??)
Why did I not just follow my instincts and transfer XP?
Re: Can I disable "Grouping" in Vista's Windows explorer??
I agree with all the "hate" posts. Sure wish Microsoft would leave well enough alone or provide a way to use old formats. I am very interested in a solution to this problem if anyone has found one. Possible a Registry entry?
Hoping for a solution!
Like them that much? Go back to the OS that has them!
surely there is a key or value somewhere in the registry that one can
delete that will just PERMANENTLY DELETE this 'grouping' function?
I have searched long and hard for a way to do this with no success so
Notice that it's been running for OVER A YEAR now and no solution has
been found.
I found a page where some guy, jcgriff2 (nice nick, by the way :) had two different registry solutions.
I tried one of them, and so far, so good.
Thought it may be helpful.
What are you saying? Oh, the link, of course. Here is is:
Wow, my ship has come in..finally some folks I can relate to! And here I thought I was alone on "Problem Island", steeped in my disdain for Vista and all it's fascist ways! Love the suggestion regarding a "Stop Thinking For Me" button! If things get any worse, I will be saying "Hasta La Vista" to Microsoft!
Looks like the link disappeared. Here it is again
Hopefully it will stay now.

The Holocaust, also known as Ha-Shoah (Hebrew: �ש���) (Yiddish in Romani, is the name applied to the state-led systematic persecution and genocide of the Jews and other minority groups of Europe and North Africa during World War II by Nazi Germany and its collaborators. Early elements of the Holocaust include the Kristallnacht pogrom of the 8th and 9th November 1938 and the T-4 Euthanasia Program, leading to the later use of killing squads and extermination camps in a massive and centrally organized effort to exterminate every possible member of the populations targeted by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
The Jews of Europe were the main victims of the Holocaust in what the Nazis called the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question" (die Endlösung der Judenfrage) or "the cleaning" (die Reinigung). The commonly used figure for the number of Jewish victims is six million, though estimates by historians using, among other sources, records from the Nazi regime itself, range from five million to seven millio...

Why are
there so many divisions in the church?
Why does the church sometimes tolerate
sin? Are you experiencing any of the
same problems that the Corinthians did
in your own relationships? If you have
similar questions, this study is an
important resource. Learn how to pray by
knowing God's mind and will on
divisions. What does God say about
marriage, divorce, remarriage? Tongues?
Prophecy? Giving? Paul addresses
these issues raised by Corinthian
believers. Join Mike Adams in

He Has Spoken – Beginning
Sunday, January 18, 5:30-6:30 p.m., in

Did you know
that Scripture itself has a
worldview? It does, and it's incumbent
upon those of us who say we love the
Bible to understand what its worldview
is and to adopt it for ourselves. And
it's much more than acquiring the right
information. As the book of James says,
"You believe that God is one; you do
well. Even the demons believe—and
shudder!" "He Has Spoken: The
Worldview of Scripture," will
not only give you the information
you need to align your worldview with
God's, it will help you to think more
Christianly about every area of life so
you can live the Gospel effectively.

The arrests were part of an undercover operation called, "Operation Knight Rider." Another three were arrested this weekend in an unrelated investigation. (October 19, 2011, Page 2)
Drug dealers face longer sentences
Mississippi judges are giving longer prison sentences to convicted drug dealers in hopes of keeping them off the streets longer after budget cuts have caused the Mississippi Department of Corrections to allow more drug offenders to be released before completing their entire sentences.

Turkish PM's office says Erdogan recordings are fake
Published on Feb 25, 2014 6:16 PM
ANKARA (REUTERS) - Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's office described as a dirty immoral fabrication voice recordings purporting to reveal Mr Erdogan telling his son to dispose of large sums of money on the day police raided houses in a graft inquiry into his government.
The recording posted on YouTube, whose authenticity Reuters could not verify, marked a sharp escalation in a graft crisis Erdogan's government says has been concocted by a US-based cleric seeking to undermine his 11-year rule by using influence in the police and judiciary.
The growing political uncertainty hit Turkish markets amid broader weakness in emerging markets.
They appear a day after Mr Erdogan aides said thousands of people, including senior politicians, had had their telephones illegally tapped over three years with the aim to blackmail and fabricate criminal cases.

Transportation IG: FAA has made improvements in reporting jobs data under Recovery Act
Tuesday - 3/13/2012, 7:36pm EDT
The Federal Aviation Administration has learned some lessons for improving accuracy and transparency.
The Transportation Department's Inspector General's office looked at how FAA reported money spent through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, following a request from the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, John Mica (R-Fla.).
According to the report, FAA met the Recovery Act's mandates to report job data, and the agency had made progress doing so over time.
However, the IG also found areas for improvement for reporting data on job creation efforts.
Lou Dixon, the principal assistant inspector general for auditing and evaluation at the Office of the Inspector General for the Transportation Department, joined In Depth with Francis Rose to discuss the report and how its findings can serve as lessons learned for other agencies as well.

Birch North Park Theatre put up for sale
In the fall, Natker put out a plea to Lyric's donor base for financial support, and the public came through. More than 300 people donated about $200,000. Before the money was raised, Natker said Lyric had considered filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
With the crisis averted, shows such as "The Gondoliers" and "Fiddler on the Roof" that are scheduled to play the venue in February, March and April should proceed as planned. However, until a buyer or at least an investor willing to purchase a substantial equity stake in the building is found, the opera company's cash flow will continue to be tied up in servicing its debt instead of promoting its acts.
Lyric has already cut its operating budget by $700,000 a year, from a peak of $2.2 million in 2005 to $1.5 million today. Staff has been reduced, show budgets have been slashed and the marketing budget has been decimated.
"The ironic part of all this is if Lyric didn't own the building, although our business has contracted, we would be able to be in the black," Natker said. "It's the building that puts it all out of whack. Unfortunately, we are tied inextricably to this structure."

NEW YORK (BankingMyWay) — What do suddenly cash-flush U.S. investors do with the extra dollars they're earning these days in their investment portfolios?
They're spending it, not saving it, and putting the purchases on their credit cards.
SaveUp, a San Francisco financial rewards-based services provider, tracks what Americans do with their portfolio proceeds. And in July, SaveUp says, the average investor saw asset balances rise by $369.64, mostly because of a "strong stock market," while 401(k) accounts saw assets rise by $1,848 for the month and taxable investments jump $1,926.
Finally, money market accounts rose by $207.
Americans didn't just sit on that money, SaveUp says.
Investors quickly added $68 to their monthly credit card spending in July while cutting back on their investment contributions, pruning $52 from their stock, bond and money market portfolios.
Why would investors take their foot off the pedal at a time the Standard & Poor's 500 gained 5% for the month?
Maybe because the prevailing sentiment is that there is more where that came from in the financial markets, as Americans see continued gains for their stocks and bond investments.
That's an outlook that can hurt U.S. financial consumers in the long run, though.
"While increased consumer spending is a sign of financial recovery, if Americans focus their spending on credit cards while reducing short-term and emergency savings, we may re-enter the pattern of overleveraged spending that led to 2008's unstable economy," says Priya Haji, chief executive at SaveUp. "We need to encourage a recovery where consumer spending and investments increase in tandem without incurring additional short-term debt. This relies on increasing real wages. We don't want to see Americans regain spending at the sacrifice of longer-term financial security."
The urge to save rather than spend resulted from the financial hit households absorbed during and after the Great Recession of 2008-09, but since December, personal savings rates have fallen to "near pre-recession rates," Haji says.
SaveUp studied 30,000 of its users savings and debt accounts to reach the above conclusions. Judging from those numbers, it seems that Americans believe that, to some extent, good times are here again.

For Williams, a release in playing Marilyn Monroe
Williams was born in a small town in northwest Montana. Though her family moved to San Diego when she was 9, Williams believes Montana "formed me in some fundamental way" and that, although she lives in a townhouse in the Boerum Hill section of Brooklyn, she "will always feel most at home in nature."
In California, Williams became interested in acting after she and her sister performed in community plays. In a nice touch of foreshadowing, she kept a poster of Monroe on her bedroom wall. As Williams' young acting career grew in TV and movies, she emancipated from her parents at age 15. Two years later, she was cast in "Dawson's Creek," the WB teen drama that ran for six seasons and catapulted Williams' fame.
Williams' film career took off with 2005's "Brokeback Mountain." She received her first Oscar nomination (a second would come for "Blue Valentine") for her performance as the rejected wife of Ledger's cowboy.
She's since drawn the interest of directors like Martin Scorsese ("Shutter Island") and Wim Wenders ("Land of Plenty"), but perhaps been most comfortable in independent films ("Synecdoche, New York," "I'm Not There").
She's twice worked with filmmaker Kelly Reichardt in low-budget films notable for their realism: 2008's "Wendy and Lucy," a film about a woman living in poverty with just her dog and a beat-up car, and this year's "Meek's Cutoff," a gritty depiction of life on the Oregon Trail in 1845. Williams slept in her character's car for "Wendy and Lucy," and learned how to drive oxen for "Meek's Cutoff."
"She really likes the chance to hide and just be able to be a person," says Reichardt. "These films have sort of offered her a chance to work while just being able to blend into the world in a way that becomes probably more difficult."
Reichardt said Williams has been sending her iPhone photos of the craft service table from her current film - Sam Raimi's "Wizard of Oz" prequel, "Oz: The Great and Powerful," in which Williams plays Glinda the Good Witch - exclaiming, "We could make a whole movie with this!"
Williams says she's long had an interest "in naturalism, in no shine on anything, no polish, no veneer.."
"What I've hoped for is to have as little separation between the character that I'm playing and the people in the audience - nothing that made the character feel out of reach," the actress says. "'Wendy and Lucy' was, I don't know if it was the culmination, but definitely that was what I was ultimately aiming for."
Whereas she rolled out of bed for "Wendy and Lucy," "My Week With Marilyn" required three hours of hair and makeup every morning.
"In the film, there's a sort of contrast between the American interior, psychological way of working, and the English external, theatrical way of working," says director Simon Curtis. "But in fact, Michelle came at the character of Marilyn in both directions."
Asked when it was that she realized she wanted to act, Williams says, "That's a decision that I make again and again and again." She lists a series of "mile-marker moments": doing her first English accent, finding camaraderie on the set of "Station Agent," making "Wendy and Lucy," working with Gosling.

The cast were not widely known before their appearances in the series but their careers received significant boosts; most of the actors received British Comedy Award nominations and James Nesbitt won Best TV Comedy Actor three times. The series was and remains critically acclaimed, winning multiple British Comedy Awards, TRIC Awards, and the British Academy Television Award for Best Drama Series. It maintained consistently high viewing figures, regularly beating other channels in head-to-head ratings battles.
Bullen, an inexperienced screenwriter, developed the series as something for people of his class and generation—middle-class thirty-somethings—to watch, as an alternative to soap operas and costume dramas. Other British screenwriters, including Danny Brocklehurst, cite Cold Feet as an influence on their writing. The series was a springboard for the careers of many directors, including Tom Hooper. It has been broadcast in over 34 countries and the format sold to producers in the United States and Italy; American network NBC co-produced a version that was cancelled after four episodes were aired. Spin-off merchandise has been released, including DVDs, books and soundtracks.
The pilot was directed by Declan Lowney and filmed in 1996, before being shelved for a year by ITV Network Centre. It was broadcast late on 30 March 1997, getting only 3.5 million viewers and little critical attention. Harries submitted it to the jury at the Montreux Television Festival and it was awarded the Rose d'Or, the highest accolade of the festival. A six-part series was commissioned by ITV in late 1997 for broadcast in November 1998.
Recurring characters appeared throughout the run of the series, including characters played by Lennie James, Mel Martin and Ben Miles. Doreen Keogh played Pete's mum Audrey in a first series episode and was brought back three more times based on the successful on-screen chemistry between her and Thomson. During production of the fourth series Ripley announced she was quitting to pursue other projects, so a replacement actress was found by Spencer Campbell, who travelled to Los Angeles to audition Australia-based actress Kimberley Joseph. Joseph was hired to play Jo Ellison, the new love interest for Pete.
By the time pre-production on the third series began, Bullen had grown tired of writing the series single-handedly and believed all the stories that could be told had been told. ITV were keen to increase the number of episodes per series to 15 but Granada refused, though did agree to add two more, bringing the total to eight. A writing team of five was assembled, overseen by Bullen. Four of the scriptwriters were deemed not good enough and they parted company with Granada. David Nicholls remained, scripting four of the eight third series episodes (Bullen wrote the other four, his interest in the series revived). Nicholls did not return for the fourth and fifth series and was replaced by Mark Chappell and Matt Greenhalgh, who each co-wrote an episode with Bullen.
Exterior location filming in Manchester city centre incorporated many modern buildings and settings as a backdrop, taking advantage of the economic boom the city went through in the 1990s. A successful location shoot on Lindisfarne for the final episode of the second series lead to the producers agreeing to film away from Manchester at least once a series. This lead to a stag weekend storyline being filmed in Portrush for the third series, a location suggested by James Nesbitt, who spent his childhood summers there. Between the third and fourth series, Bullen and Harries did a speaking tour in the Far East and Australia. As a result, they decided to work a trip to Sydney into the storyline of the fourth series because Australia was "a nice place to go". The main cast and a skeleton production crew were flown out to Sydney to film on location in 2001.
Pete moves out in the third series as he and Jenny go through a trial separation. She starts seeing businessman Robert Brown while Pete goes to Salsa classes with Ramona, the Marsden's nanny. Adam and Rachel decide to get married and he almost gets cold feet when he meets an ex-girlfriend on his stag weekend. David has an affair with political activist Jessica Barnes, which is revealed at Adam and Rachel's wedding reception. The repercussions continue through the fourth series; Karen asks David to move out of the house and turns to alcohol, eventually embarking on an affair with a publisher. Jenny moves away and Pete starts seeing Rachel's friend Jo, who proposes to him in Australia. The two marry in the extended finale and Rachel gives birth in the same episode.
The fourth series was intended to be the last but pressure on Mike Bullen resulted in it coming back for a final series of four episodes in 2003. Adam and Rachel learn parenting skills as they bring up baby Matthew while Pete and Jo's fledgling marriage deteriorates. Karen and David seek a divorce from one another, beginning new lives without each other. Rachel is killed in a car accident in the penultimate episode and each of the characters mourn her. The characters each go their separate ways in the finale, and Jenny returns to be with Pete.
An assortment of recurring characters were established, starting with Ramona, Karen and David's nanny, played by Jacey Salles, in the first series. Ramona is portrayed as unaccustomed to English social functions, spending hours making long-distance phone calls to her mother in Spain and having loud subtitled arguments with her boyfriend Javier. Bathurst and Salles established an upstairs-downstairs relationship between their characters; Bathurst would never look Salles in the eye during a scene in order to maintain an artificial distance between David and Ramona, while the scripts depicted David speaking to Ramona indirectly through other people. A larger storyline was written for Ramona in the third series and Salles was added to the opening credits in the fourth. Ben Miles and Yasmin Bannerman appeared throughout most of the third series as major characters, playing Robert Brown and Jessica Barnes respectively. Sean Pertwee appeared as Mark Cubbit for four fourth series episodes and two fifth series episodes, and Lucy Robinson and Richard Armitage played Robyn Duff and Lee, respectively, in the final series.
The fantasy cutaway scenes, added by Bullen for sophistication and credence, were positively received by critics. In the Journal of British Cinema and Television Greg M. Smith identifies them as having matured considerably by the fourth series and cites (among other examples) David's blind ambition for his family to emigrate to Australia as an example of how the fantasies polarise viewers to ally with a particular character. Smith also describes the fantasies as being less common in serials as they are in soap operas. In a 2007 feature for The Guardian, screenwriter Danny Brocklehurst discussed the impact the series has had on British television, including inspiration for one of his programmes, Talk to Me. He opined that there had not been a significant television series depicting "the wants and needs of ordinary young adults" since the American series Thirtysomething concluded its run in 1991. Brocklehurst developed Talk to Me in the same manner as Bullen developed Cold Feet, namely by basing its characters on his own experiences and friends. Both Brocklehurst and television critic Mark Lawson have discussed similar "copycat" series, including Hearts and Bones, Metropolis, Couples and Wonderful You. Brocklehurst noted that these series "lacked [Cold Feet's] warmth and believability" adding that they were "unrealistic and cynical".
Other critics hailed it as "the British answer to Thirtysomething", precursing Brocklehurst's comments; in 1998, Meg Carter wrote in The Independent, "More than 10 years on, Granada Television has finally produced a modern show that mines the rich seam of a generation that is as confused as it is liberated by increased choice and freedom, and that caters for an audience which has not, traditionally, watched very much ITV". Lawson compared it to the American sitcom Friends, a series that is also based around three men and three women and featured Helen Baxendale in a guest role. When he questioned Bullen on whether Friends influenced Cold Feet, Bullen explained that the connection was made by media as "a useful shorthand", that he was irritated by the characters in Friends and "would liked to have taken a baseball bat to them".
Four soundtracks have been released, featuring music from and "inspired by" the series; Global TV released Cold Feet: The Official Soundtrack and More Cold Feet in 1999 and 2002 respectively, UMTV released The Very Best of Cold Feet in 2003 and EMI Gold released Cold Feet in 2006. Cheatwell Games issued a licensed board game in 2001, which is no longer produced.
Video Collection International (VCI) released all five series on video and DVD in the UK between 1999 and 2003. A complete series box set was released in two versions in November 2003; one collects the individual DVD releases in a cardboard case and the other is an 11-disc set that was sold exclusively by Play.com. The bonus disc contains the retrospective documentary Cold Feet: The Final Call as well as new interviews with John Thomson, Andy Harries and Spencer Campbell. A short documentary presented by Thomson provides an overview of the locations used in the series. The 11-disc set was repackaged and put on general release in 2006, published by Granada Ventures Ltd. Another re-release occurred on 1 September 2008 as part of ITV DVD's "ITV Icons" range. The first three series were released in North America by Acorn Media and all series have been released in Australia by Universal.

2009 Mitsubishi Galant Q&A
2009 Mitsubishi Galant Question: what causes the green light on the a/c switch to flash ?
the a/c then starts to blow hot air ,i also notice oil in the area of the compressor . - Ray j
Answer 1
It means most, if not all, of your R134 refrigerant has leaked from the system - A/C light flashing means the compressor is not even kicking on because it is detecting either little to no pressure due to lack of refrigerant. I've been dealing with this on the same exact vehicle for about 2 years now. First I replaced the condenser because I found a couple forums where some people stated that a lot of them from this year are notorious for leaking near the top left (facing the grille) welded area of the condenser, plus I added some of that fluorescent a/c oil to the system to detect any future leaks. The shop said it held a vacuum for over 30min, but all of my coolant leaked out again within a month and I couldn't find any leaks using a black-light. I got a giant can of R134 and refilled it again, and this time on a whim poured a tiny bit of the dyed oil into the low-pressure valve stem and immediately saw a bubble come up every 20 seconds or so for a long time. So next time it runs out I will replace that Schrader valve and see if that fixes it. Sorry for rambling, but I just like to give a lot of detail, so hopefully this helps - I know firsthand how frustrating a/c problems can be. Since you mentioned seeing oil around the compressor, you may have a leak where the hoses attach, but it could be something else. Good Luck! - 99beerman

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., July 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hooper Holmes (Amex: HH) today announced the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company's Claims Evaluation Division (CED), a unit providing independent medical exams primarily for automobile and workers' compensation insurance carriers for use in evaluating claims.
The sale was completed in two transactions for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.6 million. In one transaction, the CED's operations in New York State, known as D&D Associates, Allegiance Health and Medimax, were sold to DDA Management Services, LLC. In another transaction, the CED's operations in Michigan, known as the Michigan Evaluation Group, were sold to J&P Michigan Evaluation Group Inc. Both transactions closed on Monday, June 30.
"Divesting the Claims Evaluations Division is a strategic move that will strengthen our balance sheet and enable us to focus on and invest in our core businesses," said Roy H. Bubbs, President and CEO of Hooper Holmes.
The decision to sell the CED was based on several factors, including the subsidiary's limited ability to significantly contribute to the long-term strategic goals of the Company. The company expects to record a net gain of approximately $1.0 million in connection with the transaction.

Not really a fan. This is too golden-y for my taste. For some reason, golden highlights look very obvious on me even though I have a warm skin tone. Yes I know, half of this is pink. Guess what? Even when I swirl my brush in both shades or just use the pink side, this STILL shows up to golden on my skin. The packaging is absolutely gorgeous, though.

This product is so worth the price! It gives an absolutely stunning highlight to the cheeks, Cupid's bow, brow bone, and nose bridge. I can't get over how beautiful this looks on! It completes my makeup look definitely a HG product for me. The packaging is beautiful too.

I'd recommend using this very sparingly and make sure your skin tone is not too dark for this. I'm medium toned and this just looked entirely too frosty and 90's-esque for me. Please know what you're doing before you put this stuff on. Would not repurchase, there are much better , more warm and golden highlighters out there that are a lot more flattering.

I love Too Faced and am a big fan of their products, especially their bronzers and face products. This is no exception. This highlighter is almost TOO pigmented and its kind of chalky but it is definitely the perfect highlighter. I honestly think this is better to use at night/stage make up but I do reach for it when I do very minimal make up. I also love that you can use each side or blend them together. I also love using this as an eyeshadow highlighter. I prefer the NARS Albatross for everyday use but this is definitely second place and I own a shit ton of highlighters.

I absolutely love this! This has both of the must have shades of highlighters that you will need in one compact! The texture is extremely silky and the powder very finely milled. It isn't drying either. It has excellent staying power. After application, you can take your finger and rub it and the product is still just as you applied it. It really does give you a lit-from-within ethereal glow. The colors are beautiful on the skin. The first is a really soft gold, and the second is a pinky gold. Don't let the pink color in the pan fool you. When applied, it has an iridescent glow. And, they can be worn separately or together. I use them both on my face in different areas and sometimes I overlay them. I love using the pink underneath my eyes over my concealer because I have really dark circles (thanks genetics) and it really takes that darkness away and diffuses the light from the area. I also use this on "no makeup" days. I apply a bit of concealer, matte bronzer where the sun naturally hits the face, dip my highlighting brush into both shades of this blending and buffing it out, mascara, and a pinky nude lip. I get so many compliments on my skin. This is an HG for me!

So I called off sick on Wed and went to work the next day not feeling 100%. Did my makeup that morning-moisturizer, Merle Norman Pure Mineral powder then over that Wet 'n Wild Coverall then MAC Virgin Isle. Then topped it off with Too Face Candlelight Duo. So I'm at work in the most horrible lighting ever and someone says to me "Your skin is glowy and beautiful and you called off sick yesterday" I proceeded to tell them that at 57 I know enough about makeup that I could make a corpse look glowy!! Too Faced Candlelight Duo freakin' rocks!!!!

Age: 19-24
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Brown, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
I'd like to start off saying that the packaging, both the compact and the package it comes in, are absolutely beautiful. The powder is dual tone with a nice crown (I think) stamped in the centre. I also like the fact that it has a mirror.
At first I loved it because it looked really nice over my NC25-30 skin tone, it does give a nice glow to the skin on bare cheeks or over blush, under the brow bone and on the cupid's bow. It works well over liquid foundation too. However, I'm going it a 4/5 because over time, I noticed that the powder accentuated my pores enough for me to notice. When I tried to apply it in the inner corner of my eyes, I got a stye the next day (and yes, I did experiment and it really was this powder) which is no big deal because it probably wasn't meant for the eye area anyway.
Would I purchase it again? Well, considering that I bought it with a gift card, maybe. I'm not too crazy about it but I can see how people love it. It is quite expensive for a highlighter - I think it was $30 - 35 CAD, but it is definitely worth a try.

The winner on the June special election in Massachusetts won't change the balance of power in Congress, but could change the political landscape heading into the 2014 midterms.
Our crime has made national news: We're giving out condoms. At a Catholic University.
If we want all people to have access to care across the United States, we must create newsworthy initiatives calling for an expansion rather than a retraction of coverage, and we must call upon our elected representatives to do the same.
Sexual Health Roundup: Condoms at Catholic Schools, Meds for STI-Exposed Partners, and Bacon-Flavored Condoms
This week, Boston College gets support for its decision to halt student condom distribution, Nebraska tries to pass an expedited partner treatment law, and the bacon condom arrives just in time for April Fool's Day (but it's not a joke).
By all accounts, the women's rights advocates who fought to reauthorize VAWA never made EC a priority.
One primary. Two Democrats. One pro-choice. One anti-choice. Here we go again.
On this 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we honor and celebrate US women's legal right to abortion, and we reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that abortion is accessible to women everywhere, and that the promise of the decision is a reality for all of us.
The First Circuit Court of Appeals has made it clear that women and clinic workers have a right to safely access abortion clinics.
Feminists need to pay more attention to domestic workers' rights, especially in light of how hard domestic workers toil not just in their jobs, but also to advocate for their own basic workplace protections.
The media has recently latched on to the idea of the "teen mom," elevating her to star status—both in dramas and on reality TV. These shows feature teen pregnancy, but they do so in an unrealistic way that fetishizes and glamorizes it. The stories of the girls I spoke with at The Care Center are much different from the ones shown in half-hour snippets on TV and splashed across tabloid magazines.

About the Owner
Mark and Sarah are full time vacation rental owners and managers. They began Branson Vacation Rentals in 2003, starting by offering their personal 4 bedroom cabin up to share with others. They have grown into a small business that supports their entire family and more.
They have had a blast buying rentals of all sizes in Branson and sharing them with their guests and friends. Other owners started asking if they could manage their properties as well. Our return customers and excellent reputation have even brought them some celebrity clients whose multiple properties they now manage, including; Yakov Smirnoff and the Roy Rogers family, just to name a few!
We have 4 kids, we love to travel and our motto is 'Always Choose Adventure.' We love what we do. It is the best job in the world helping people get together for family reunions, honeymoons, military reunions or just building memories together.
Guestbook comments from the manager
Dear Whomever is Reading, I loved the first day! The memory foam on the bed is wonderful. We all enjoyed the movies and fought over the massage chairs. The art pictures are beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and I hope we can come back soon!

The location was perfect & it was such a wonderful place to stay ~ Kids & Adults had awesome time!! Thank you Sarah & Mark for making our family vacation
Great even with toddlers & preschoolersGreat even with toddlers & preschoolers
I only marked as Good as the view is partially blocked by taller trees while you are on the deck and the noise of the A/C units sort of takes away from that "lake effect". Also unless you are handicapped there was no parking option to avoid stairs, you had to 1st go down from the parking lot and then up to your room. I realize though these are things that the owner can not change, just want people to be prepared. There was a little noise from above us, but really it was almost like we were the only ones there. Also I'm not sure about the pictures, if they have done some updating and not updated the pictures, so the room in these pictures isn't exactly what you get at the condo.
From the Owner
"Mark and Sarah found Branson an incredible vacation area, that their family loves to spend time all seasons of the year. They love the lake, the shows and the shopping. They have 4 kids, so Silver Dollar City and White Water get lots of visits from their family. They chose Branson because there is something for most every interest and every age within minutes so they never tired of things to do. They started with a love of travel and of family togetherness. While traveling they usually stay in vacation rentals, home shares and other properties for a more personal touch. This gave them an excellent knowledge of what it takes to make guests comfortable and accommodate a large family with activities for everyone. They took everything they learned and decided to maintain a high standard of excellence in service, ethics and comfortable, functional, well maintained and luxurious accommodations. As they began to manage for others, they developed strict guidelines for properties to ensure they all meet their standards for being a place they would take there own family."
Activity and Interests
The Branson and lakes area truly offers something for every age, ability and interest!
Other Activities: Parasailing, jetski, tubing
Golf: Many championship golf courses in the area.

Activists fear Thai return of Hmong rebel to Laos
"The Thai government should recognize that he likely would face persecution if he's sent back to Laos, and respect his right to request asylum by immediately permitting him access to the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees," said Phil Robertson, deputy director of the Asia Division at Human Rights Watch.
In Washington, a State Department official said the U.S. has "emphasized with the Thai government that vulnerable persons should be given access to screening by the UNHCR to determine their protection requirements." The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on the record.
A spokesman for Thailand's Foreign Minister was not available to answer calls to his office for comment.
Many Hmong fled Laos after the communist takeover. Between the late 1970s and the mid-1990s, an estimated 195,000 refugees were resettled in the United States, primarily in California, Minnesota, North Carolina and Wisconsin.
