RuthC: This is a very interesting capture, aki1981, of footprints in the sand, disappearing into the void. You have achieved a sense of foreboding with your darker colours, the greys and black of the sand, and the blues and black beyond. Ruth :-)
Thanks a lot Ruth you like my shot, Your comment surely inspire for better work in future too.
Nice shot but why that painting kind of depth? it's process or what?
Very nice article DPR, finally he gets the space which he deserve, I am feeling proud that I was part of his inspiring project where he published my one picture.
Thanks a lot Toni, as an inspiring photographer or as a friend.
Afzal Khan
Thanks for your comment and like but I feel those works which is actually a male work where very much stamina required and that work females do, that is what i understand. the reason why this pics in the challenge.
Another thing is in modern era i do't think there is any work which only male do and female can't do. Both gender are similar.
this is magical shot, in every aspect this is beautiful, This is one of the best shot i ever saw in flower category. well done. You not just deserve the win, whene you created this shot its already become a winner.
Daniel Diaz: Anyone who says this is not a good photograph knows nothing about photography. This is an excellent and gripping photo. Both from an emotional and composition point of very. WELL DONE and congrats!!!
Daniel, Hats off to you.
I am not such a great photographer as you explaining but really take your words with heart. No words to express my thanks to you.
UdayanSankarPal: tim & jan: There is nothing to prove that he is begging someone to stop shooting him either. We have to give the photographer the benefit of doubt considering your objection.
I think every photo have have its own story. Positive thinking made photos look positive and negative thinking make it negative. Thanks for your support in my behalf.
babalu: Good win, this picture finally made the top place after four attempts.
Yes I have tried lots of time and finally get the chance. Thanks for your support. Babalu.
(unknown member): Excellent photo and a well deserved win!
Thank you Bruce!
James Bligh: Behold. Who will say there is no God after seeing this picture? This old man must have experienced a solemn and magnificent moment in his prayer. Oh God, pity man.
Thanks a lot James for the support.
Doss: Love the really tight crop & selective focus. Makes for a powerful image.
Thank you so much Doss.
lovely black and white.
I am searching for all of them...
fantastic depth of field.
lovely subject.
lovely colors.
olyflyer: The winning image will show what exactly? Nothing else than the work of the photographer, since any of these cameras can be used to take equally well made images, so conclusions about camera brand superiority based on a winning challenge is pretty much nonsense. It will not show the quality of the camera but the quality of the photographer (actually, the voters), unless the photographer used a feature which does not exist in the other two cameras, if there is a feature like that, and the image couldn't be taken without that feature.
Another thing is that giving away the name of the camera in the title or the notes, which can be seen for the voters, should not be allowed. This to give the image a fair chance to be judged by the image, not by the brand. Fanboys will go for the brand, not the image.
this is not prize winning challenge so which brand win doesn't matter much, matter is we can get chance to see some of the good work done by photographers. which we crave for mostly.
MurliRao: Does D800E count?...or is it strictly D800
may be you have better knowledge, Thanks for given us light.
MurliRao: Does D800E count?...or is it strictly D800
Only D800 because its usually made for anyone while D800E is more for just professional workers. so D800E would be more high end i would say.
If you have D800E, I am sorry this challenge is not for you, if in case i would allow you other will surely ask for other Mark series too.

Michael Pressman's revival for MTC, with its biracial casting, gives Inge's sad little fable an extra twist: Doc's having married "beneath him" now involves crossing what was, in 1949, still a major social and legal barrier. This gives the couple's acceptance by everyone else a queasy underpinningwhich helps, since Pressman's production, with its steady forward drive, doesn't always leave space for the silent loneliness that wells up in the interstices. Merkerson, always touching and real, seems less inattentive to her housework than busy dealing with the minor characters who bustle nonstop in and out. She also derives less pain than Lola needs from Anderson, a big, burly, healthy-looking fellow who seems, till the last act, the optimistic opposite of a recovering alcoholic. Kazan's imperturbable Marie, too, could use a hint of the dark currents below her surface sweetness. Brenda Wehle, as Lola's less-than-admiring next-door neighbor, supplies Merkerson's best seconding; the air in their brief scenes together runs thick with unspoken comment.
In Ethan Coen's Almost an Evening, contrariwise, the air runs thin and empty during the large gaps between the lines. Coen's three meager sketches derive from glib stereotypes that stay unexplored as the sketches plod their predictable way to equally meager punch lines. A lot of good actors are wasted on this arid piece of ego-indulgence; only F. Murray Abraham, as a temperamental actor playing an equally temperamental Old Testament God, gets a few blessed chances to show off. Don't waste your time.

How do I ripen green tomatoes indoors?
How do I ripen green tomatoes indoors? I have lots of them I picked just before frost.
You'll have the best luck with "mature green" tomatoes. These are the ones with a whitish coloration on the blossom end of the tomato. Tomatoes should be free of blemishes. Best ripening occurs when temperatures are kept at 70-75 F. To speed ripening, you can place ripe bananas or apples with the tomatoes. These fruits give off ethylene gas, which promotes ripening. If you have lots of tomatoes, store them in a ventilated box one layer deep. To prolong storage, keep them in a cool, dark, humid room. Protect from direct sun.

President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, spent the first night of the new year at Vintage Cave, an upscale restaurant in Hawaii.
"At Vintage Cave Honolulu, one can enjoy exceptional food and wine at the hands of gifted masters of the culinary arts. 'Chef's recommendation' commands a gravitas guaranteed to satisfy the most discerning palate. Seasoned sommelier's conduct the process of pairing wine and food with true finesse and style. Secure in the natural embrace of the cave-like environment, guests are encouraged to relax, 'hit reset' and escape the ordinary," Vintage Cave's description reads on its website.
As Time's Zeke Miller pointed out, membership at the restaurant can set you back $500,000.

The half million dollars is to become a "Charter Member." A cheaper membership option the restaurant offers is "Special Member," which costs only $50,000.
The restaurant's prix fixe menu is reportedly $295, with a 13-15 course meal. One local magazine estimates "total bill for two, with wine, will approach $1,000."

VI. Future Options/Avenues of Exploration
Metamaterials can be considered generalized composite materials. The potential impact of MMs can be understood by considering glass or carbon fiber composites—artificially structured media that are often stronger and lighter weight than conventional materials—which have revolutionized structural and mechanical engineering. MMs have the potential to likewise impact waves such as electromagnetic and acoustic waves. MMs have an emerging suite of tools and techniques that provide guidance and precise design methods for electromagnetic, acoustic, and other types of materials that control wave phenomena. MMs are also currently demonstrating highly graded index of refraction materials. The impact and relevance to DoD and national security is not yet realized, but could be transformational. Areas to watch include:
Metamaterial Design – Design techniques for arriving at a homogenized description of an otherwise inhomogeneous collection of objects. The techniques for metamaterial design have been refined over the past decade, but techniques continue to evolve and should be monitored for emerging capabilities that will drive innovation and realization of practical structures.
Metamaterials Fabrication – Once designed, physical metamaterial implementations must be found that enable the conceived designs. Not all metamaterial theoretical designs translate to practical implementation. There is a necessary step of coordinating theory and simulation of metamaterials with available dielectrics and metals, as well as fabrication and manufacturing techniques; realization of structures often requires innovation, experimentation, and iteration.
Metamaterial Integration into Devices – The successful development of devices requires an in-depth evaluation of existing technology. Entry points for metamaterial structures and components into existing technologies can be subtle, and require the fusion of traditional engineering methods with emerging metamaterial designs and structures. MMs face a number of technical challenges, including narrow band operation and polarization sensitivity (more complex designs may address these), as well as losses and small feature sizes (both particularly at optical and shorter wavelengths).
MMs also face a number of more non-technical issues: (1) A broadened definition of MMs by those in related fields who seek funding (e.g., photonic crystals and frequency selective surfaces); (2) Unrealistic short term expectations; (3) The potential to impair U.S. innovation and research through classification of MM research in the U.S.A.; (4) Highly competitive worldwide research, with heavy funding levels abroad.
At microwave and radio frequencies, MM manufacturing technologies are better understood, and the transition to applications is critical. The teaming of MM experts with industrial and DoD system designers is crucial, as the latter have knowledge of system needs and can help to identify areas where MM structures and devices can have an impact. In the THz, radar, infrared, and optical regimes, basic research is necessary into dielectric materials, conductors, structures, and manufacturing methods. Innovations in materials and structures will optimally be led by interactions between MM theorists, materials engineers, and fabrication researchers. Early interaction of these researchers with the component and systems communities will identify the critical aspects for MMs for each application (e.g., does loss matter?).

Ingredients for 4 people: 1 kg of ripe tomatoes, 2 small green peppers 2 garlic cloves 100 g of farmhouse bread, 4 tbsp of extra pure olive oil, 1 tbsp of sherry vinegar, water boiled, egg, bread and salt.
Soak the bread in water and then crush with the diced vegetables, oil, vinegar, salt and water according to how thick you want the soup to be. Nowadays we use a mixer, which has the advantage of producing a finer blend of vegetables.
Serve in four individual clay dishes. Usually accompanied by tomato, cucumber, green pepper, onion, bread and hard boiled egg, all finely diced. Everyone can serve themselves according to taste.

The Canterbury Park Mile saw intense Flat Track action as several championships are beginning to wind down.
The Canterbury Park Mile in Minneapolis, Minnesota may not boast the history and tradition of Springfield or Indy, but it is no less important. The Minnesota Mile marked a pivotal point in the AMA Pro
Flat Track
season. Several championships are on the line, a few teams chalked up firsts, while others saw their championship hopes dashed.
Canterbury Park is an impressive facility, next door to the Mall of America, it has more amenities than any other venue on the Flat Track circuit this year. The track fattens its coffers by filling the stands with horse racing enthusiasts and its take from a hand of Blackjack or two. AMA Pro Flat Track's Operations Manager, Steve Morehead, worked feverishly to prep the track for the first Grand National it had seen in 13 years. Traditionally, horse tracks have a deep cushion that protects the horses' lower extremities from the shock of impact when running flat out. Horses at a full gallop support their entire body mass on only one of four hooves at specific instant during their stride, while the other three are reaching for the next. It is a remarkable feat of athleticism.
Dirt Trackers need the exact opposite, requiring a hard, smooth surface to withstand the abuse 100hp and soft rubber tend to dish out. AMA officials and track crew worked long hours to prepare Canterbury Park for what was about to take place. The track started to break up in spots due to heavy rain the night before, but it held up long enough for
Harley Davidson
's Kenny Coolbeth to take his first win in 2010. Kenny's win was not the focus, however, Round 15 in Minnesota was about position in the Championship, not on the track.
Although Kenny Coolbeth Jr. took the win in Minnesota, all eyes were on the Monster Energy Kawasaki team as they took their first Manufacturer's Championship in Flat Track history.
Monster Energy
is already polishing their name on one trophy. The Werner-Springsteen Team and Henry Wiles led Kawasaki to it's first Manufacturer's Championship in Flat Track history. Kawasaki won 4 of the last 5 races, scoring 273 to Harley-Davidson's 214 total points, mathematically eliminating the American factory's chances for the title. Scott Powesports' Johnny Lewis (#10) assisted aboard his 650 twin, earning 12 points during Round 8 in Michigan, after Bryan Smith retired due to a crash. Those points proved to be the difference with two rounds left and Harley's maximum point potential of 260.
Joe Kopp (#3) has held sole possession of the GNC Overall Points lead since his win during Round 8 at the I-96 Speedway. His
failed him in Minnesota after 19 of 25 laps, crushing the team and Joe's morale. Jake Johnson (#5) sailed passed him on the track and into the points lead with only two rounds left. Johnson leads Kopp 265-255 with 56 points to battle for between Knoxville and Yavapai. Joe, a 41yr old husband and father, has mentioned retirement at the end of the 2010 race season. Ending your career as #1 is a dream exit for any athlete. Considering the gravity of the situation, Joe will fight his last battle on the track with a level of tenacity few have ever seen. Knoxville, Iowa's Half-Mile and the final at Yavapai Downs, AZ may prove to be the most heated races of the year.
Sammy Halbert (#7) was, essentially, eliminated from the Championship coming into Minnesota. He injured his throttle hand in a racing incident with Luke Gough (#62) at the Springfield Short Track, limiting his ability to get on the pace at the following day's Springfield Mile. Halbert held second place in the standings until Springfield. AMA Pro Flat Track
The Pro Singles Championship is still being figured out as Jeffrey Carver remains 27 points ahead of Brad Baker with only a few rounds left.
Officials ruled Sammy's tangle with Gough intentional and suspended him from the race at Canterbury Park. Halbert is known as an aggressive rider and had been placed on probation for his behavior on the track earlier in the season. The suspension is more than a slap on the wrist, as he slips down the overall rankings, he is losing his claim to more than $50,000 in prize money, contingency earnings and potential sponsorship bonuses. The 23 year old owns and operates Halbert Bros. Racing. It is unknown, how deep this penalty will cut into his team's finances for 2010, but it will likely affect their 2011 campaign, fueling Halbert's competitive fire.
The Pro Singles Championship is still being contested between 2009 Champion Brad Baker and Jeffrey Carver (24P). Carver leads Baker 278-251 with 46 points to fight for in the remaining rounds. Both riders are out to claim bragging rights and their share of more than $15,000 in prize money from
. The pair is also vying for rides in the Expert ranks for 2011. Baker is under pressure to win the both rounds and score maximum points, while Carver can be more conservative. Jeff must finish in the top ten in Iowa and Arizona to strip the #1 plate off of Baker's
and plant it on his
Saddlemen's Rookie of the Year award will be decided between young phenoms P.J. Jacobsen (99B) and J.D. Beach (#95C). Both traded in their red number plates for national numbers after their first Expert race.
Round 16 on Saturday, Sept. 18th and Round 17 Oct. 9th are sure to be "must see" racing. Stay tuned as we count down the AMA Pro Flat Track Championship!

The Word :: 12.26.07 :: Webster Theatre :: Hartford, CT
On the night after the Christmas, The Word, which includes Randolph, the complete North Mississippi Allstars: Chris Chew (bass), Cody Dickinson (drums) and Luther Dickinson (guitar), along with MMW's John Medeski (keys) took the stage at the Webster Theatre for the opening night of a four-date run through the Northeast. While the large Webster lacked some of the intimacy from the 2001 tour, this performance was every bit as rousing.
With gracious nods to the crowd, the band picked up their instruments and began with a slow, amorphous, meandering intro to "Without God." To the uninitiated, it may have seemed odd to start with an unstructured free-for-all but with a wave and a nod Randolph brought the band around and launched into the fast paced foot-stomper. Sure enough, the packed audience began to sway and groove, whether right up front or way back in the bar.
The theatre remained fully packed through the break as the best was yet to come. Set Two began with a soulful, funky take on Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues." The incredibly tight rhythm section served as the backbone while both Medeski and Randolph soulfully grooved around the deep funk. One could feel the Southern Gospel grace in the heartfelt rendition of "Joyful Sounds," where both guitarists bounded up and down the necks of their instruments with a slide, inciting the most invigorating dancing of the evening. People were shaking everywhere on the spirited closer "I'll Fly Away," which included several Luther teases of "Turn On Your Love Light." Bassist Chew stood at a mic for a vocal turn that disappointingly never materialized on the Hendrix classic "Voodoo Chile," during which Randolph leaned over his lap steel, sweat dripping from his brow, his instrument swaying back and fourth as his feet on the pedals manically attempted to keep up with his hands. It was an inspiring end to a surprisingly tight performance that left everyone feeling as though they'd been lifted up to a divine place.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seir (Hebrew: שֵׂעִיר, Modern Se'ir, Tiberian Śēʻîr, "Rough, hairy"). It is sometimes used as an alternative term for a goat, as in Seir La'Azazel (שעיר לעזאזל - scapegoat).
- Seir - "Prince" in Ancient Egyptian, a name used by the Egyptians to refer the god of the dead known to the Greeks as Osiris. The term "Seir" was also used by the Egyptians to refer to the constellation Orion, which was considered to be a representation of the god Osiris in the heavens.
- In Biblical Astronomy, Seir refers to the name of a star in the constellation Orion, which is considered to be a Messiah figure representing Christ. Sacred Astronomy is the study of "the Gospel in the Stars," an examination of the constellations in Earth's night sky to discern the hidden allegorical message within them from the Creator God to His people.[1][unreliable source?] For example, in the Dendera Zodiac, the hawk symbol for Canis Major is identified by the term "Naz Seir". This hawk symbol represents the star Sirius in Canis Major. In Egyptian, "Naz" means "Sent," while "Seir" means "Prince" or "Chief." Therefore, the title "Naz Seir" can mean "Sent Prince." Since "Naz" and "Zar" both mean "Prince" in Hebrew, Naz Seir could also mean "Prince of princes," a fitting title for Jesus as the King of kings. This may also be the hidden origin of the term Nazarene used to identify Christ, the Naz, Zar, or Prince of Peace.[2][unreliable source?][3][unreliable source?][4][unreliable source?]
- Ancestor of the "dukes of the Horites" in the land of Seir, later Edom (Gen. 36:20-30).
- Mount Seir, a mountainous region occupied by the Edomites, extending along the eastern side of the Arabah from the south-eastern extremity of the Dead Sea to near the Akabah, or the eastern branch of the Red Sea. It was originally occupied by the Horites (Genesis 14:6), who were afterwards driven out by the Edomites (Gen. 32:3; 33:14, 16). It was allotted to the descendants of Esau (Deuteronomy 2:4, 22; Joshua 24:4; 2 Chronicles 20:10; Isaiah 21:11; Ezekiel. 25:8).
- An Arab village north of Hebron, also spelled Sa'ir or Si`ir. It has rock-cut burial caves, one attributed to Esau, the "hairy-one". Believed to be the site of Tsi`or or Zior (ציער), mentioned in the Book of Joshua 15:54.[5]
- Seir (demon), prince of Hell in demonology.
- A mountain range (not the Edomite range, Gen. 32:3) lying between the Wady Aly and the Wady Ghurab (Josh. 15:10).

Blues guitarist Donald Kinsey on life and the blues
By Current State
Legendary guitarist Donald Kinsey has been steeped in the blues since his birth. His father, Lester "Big Daddy" Kinsey, brought him up on a solid diet of basement jam sessions and blues shows in clandestine joints in Gary, Ind.
At 17, Donald traveled the world as Albert King's lead guitarist. Later, he was captivated by a new sound, reggae. He played with Peter Tosh and was a member of The Wailers Band. Current State Weekend host Emanuele Berry discusses the past, the blues and the present with Donald Kinsey.

Heroes come in many forms
Military service does not imply or guarantee heroism at all. (I think I avoided it in Vietnam.) However, it does provide opportunities to show whether you have such qualities. But many others, such as police, firemen and paramedics are also thrust into these events. Anyone is capable, like an ordinary passing motorist rescuing someone from a burning car. But there is an equal spirit in people who take risks to support what is right instead of taking the easy route. Think of Profiles In Courage. I salute the author, salute all true heroes, and endorse the wisdom of Yoda.

Brides.com 2009 American Wedding Survey Reveals: Popping the Question has Popped in Price
43% Increase In Average Cost Of Engagement Rings Since 2006
Balancing the Budget – Average Cost of Weddings See Less Than 1% Rise Over 2006 Price Tag Typical Cost of Wedding Rings Drop
"Clearly, the sparkle — and value — of diamonds has captured the attention and wallets of couples who are keen on making a significant investment when it comes to engagement rings," said
However, with the majority of couples (82%) setting a budget prior to the wedding and half of brides-to-be (51%) taking the additional step of spending time researching financing for "the big day," certain checks and balances are being made. According to the survey, the average price of a wedding is virtually unchanged over 2006 costs, seeing less than a 1 percent increase (
In addition, in comparison to the upswing in cost for engagement rings, wedding rings have taken a dip in average price, with the typical duo of bands costing
When it comes to a bride-to-be's number one most researched item on her wedding to-do list — the wedding gown — an eye is being kept on cost as well, with gown price tags increasing by little less than 2 percent over 2006 (
In terms of other budget considerations, the survey found that more than half of engaged women (58%) expect to use a credit card to help pay for wedding expenses. Payment of the wedding is a combined effort for the most part. Not many single parties are exclusively paying for this wedding. Nearly one in five (19%) of bride's parents are paying for the wedding outright, while 8 percent of brides are footing the entire bill by themselves.
"A wedding is one of the most treasured celebrations in a couples' life, so it's no surprise that certain costs haven't seen a major decrease. But, that said, it is good to see brides and grooms keeping their eye on budgets too, since this special day marks the beginning of a building a lifetime together," added Preli.

NEWARK, New Jersey — A northern New Jersey man has been convicted of sexually abusing a sleeping woman on a cross-country flight last year.
Jurors returned the verdict against 49-year-old Bawer Aksal on Friday, their second day of deliberations. The Turkish-born American citizen was convicted of sexual abuse and abusive sexual contact.
The woman testified under an alias that she awoke on the Phoenix-to-Newark flight last August to find Aksal with one hand inside her blouse and the other inside her underwear.
Aksal didn't testify but told authorities the woman made unwanted sexual advances toward him and forced his hands to touch her.
On Thursday, jurors had asked to review testimony by a man who sat next to Aksal on the flight and by an FBI agent who interviewed the defendant.

Quick - list some players you'd expect to see on a three game point streak? Sidney Crosby! Steven Stamkos! Evgeni Malkin if he weren't concussed! I bet you left someone off of your list: Paul Bissonnette. Biznasty, as he's probably better known thanks to Twitter, probably never ever crossed your mind, did he? Shame on you -- because he has assists in three straight games. As Deadspin points out, if Bissonnette keeps up this point streak for the rest of the year... well, he'd have enough points to make a good third-liner proud. He's never had three assists in one season, let alone three games in a row. Have they been pretty saucer passes? Of course not. They've been more along the lines of happy accidents, but hey -- can you argue with anyone for getting excited about Biz's torrid scoring pace? I can't. [follow]

The entrance to the National September 11 Memorial Museum, center, is located between the two reflecting pools at the World Trade Center in New York.
NEW YORK—When Patricia Reilly entered the National September 11 Memorial Museum for the first time last week, she braced herself—she was about to re-live that day yet again.
On Sept. 11, 2001, Reilly's younger sister Lorraine Lee, a 37-year-old administrative assistant, was working on the 101st floor of the World Trade Center's South Tower. While on her bus to work, Reilly saw smoke billowing from the North Tower, and called her sister. "She told me she had been told to stay at her desk," Reilly said. "I told her I would speak to her later when I got to work." She never spoke to her sister again.
Later that day, as the disaster unfolded, one of Lee's co-workers, who'd fled the office, called Reilly and asked if her sister was OK. "I was happy for her," she said, "but it was painful to know that my sister could have gotten out." Lee's boss was a fire warden, and she had stayed behind to help.
Last week during a preview tour, Reilly got her first glimpse of the 9/11 Museum, which is poised to open in New York City nearly 13 years after the terror attacks that destroyed the twin towers and killed about 3,000 people, including 2,753 in New York. After years of delays, the museum will be dedicated on Thursday, and will open to the public on May 21st.
Visitors enter the museum through a pavilion where two tridents—steel beams from the North Tower façade—stand in the atrium. Down several long ramps, the museum's main exhibitions are located seven stories below the 9/11 Memorial, on the bedrock of the World Trade Center where the twin towers once stood.
The exhibitions include tens of thousands of photographs, testimonials, audio and video recordings that tell the story of 9/11 and the days that followed through the experiences of survivors, responders, area residents and eyewitnesses. "It is a museum about people and about stories," said museum director Alice Greenwald. "You can hear from the people who were there, when they were there."
Artifacts large and small are everywhere. A partially burned out and mangled fire engine, Ladder 3, sits near remnants of other equipment used by first responders. Down below, a portion of the slurry wall, built around the original foundation, and responsible for preventing the Hudson River from flooding the site, remains intact.
For Reilly, the museum's location at the World Trade Center site is especially profound. "This museum is right in the middle of what it is trying to have people remember," she said. Reilly has been working for years with various 9/11 family groups to have input into the creation of the museum—she owed that to her sister, she said. "Long after we are gone I wanted people to see her name and think about her as a person, along with all the people who died that day," Reilly said.
In a section of the museum focused on security measures then and now, Reilly found something she had been looking for: Her sister's picture office ID card. That and Lee's pocketbook were the only personal items the family ever recovered.
"I am always amazed that we never got my sister back but we were able to get these," Reilly said through tears. "These are the things that she had with her at the end."
Reilly and her family are certainly not alone. Remains have not been found or identified for some 40 percent of the people who died at the World Trade Center on September 11th. Thousands of unidentified fragments of humanity recovered in the years since the attack will be placed in a special repository inside the museum, even though some 9/11 family members vehemently object to the remains being placed in the museum. Many would prefer to see them honored as part of the 9/11 Memorial above the museum, where the public could pay their respects.
Other controversies surrounding the museum still simmer. Some object to the $24 admission price for the public, including 9/11 families who have said it makes the museum a "revenue-generating tourist attraction." (Victims' families and several other categories of visitors are allowed to see the exhibit for free.)
Revenue generated by the museum, which has a projected $60 million annual operating budget, allows the Memorial fountains and plaza to remain free and open to the public, museum officials have said. Meanwhile, the museum, a private, not-for-profit institution, is still fighting for federal funding. Efforts to secure federal funding for the 9/11 museum have been blocked in Congress.
The museum directors had hoped to open three years ago, for the 10th anniversary of the attacks, but the project has endured funding disputes, building delays and even a flood caused by Superstorm Sandy. When asked what the most contentious issue has been, museum director Greenwald answered, "Everything."
Perhaps what will be the most emotional exhibit in the museum wasn't open for the preview tour: The Memorial Hall, which will display portraits of everyone who was lost, along with memories about their lives provided by loved ones.
After the tour, Reilly felt satisfied, if emotional and overwhelmed, that her sister's memory was represented at the museum. "I succeeded in having her remembered," Reilly said. "That was something that was so important to me."

Hi Bill,
It is said that all four lines should be of equal length but if you get the power pair the same and the brake pair the same then you can get away with an inch or so split between them, any tuning can be carried out on your leaders.

I make them all equal, that way you can switch the top and bottom lines periodically to equalize the stretching.

Author(s): Godden, Richard
ISBN 10: 069113071X. See all ISBN's
Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
In William Faulkner, Richard Godden traces how the novelist's late fiction echoes the economic and racial traumas of the South's delayed modernization in the mid-twentieth century. As the New Deal rapidly accelerated the long-term shift from tenant farming to modern agriculture, many African Americans were driven from the land and forced to migrate north. At the same time, white landowners exchanged dependency on black labor for dependency on northern capital. Combining powerful close readings of The Hamlet, Go Down, Moses, and A Fable with an examination of southern economic history from the 1930s to the 1950s, Godden shows how the novels' literary complexities--from their narrative structures down to their smallest verbal emphases--reflect and refract the period's economic complexities. By demonstrating the interrelation of literary forms and economic systems, the book describes, in effect, the poetics of an economy.
Original in the way it brings together close reading and historical context, William Faulkner offers innovative interpretations of late Faulkner and makes a unique contribution to the understanding of the relation between literature and history.

Actress Parineeti Chopra is ecstatic with the response to her latest film "Shuddh Desi Romance" and says she knew it would work ever since she read the script.
Produced under the Yash Raj Films (YRF) banner, the movie that also stars Sushant Singh Rajput">Sushant Singh Rajput and Vaani Kapoor is directed by Maneesh Sharma.
"When I read the script I was sure that this is going to be a very entertaining film. I was happy that Maneesh and Adi (Aditya Chopra from YRF) offered me this film because after 'Ishaqzaade' I wanted to do something different and 'Shuddh Desi Romance' clicked," Parineeti said here at a Nivea event.
"It has released and people are liking it, the reviews are good and all the performances and Jaideep (Sahni, scriptwriter) and Maneesh's work is being appreciated. When there are a lot of messages and missed calls on your phone, you like it. So, I am very happy," added the 24-year-old.
When reminded about the movie's negative reviews, Parineeti defended her stand and said: "Reviews are always mixed, you never have unanimous reviews of any film. Every critic is a different person and their sensibilities and tastes are different."

Fat China: How Expanding Waistlines Are Changing a Nation
Anthem Press, Jul 1, 2010 - Social Science - 250 pages
China's economy has boomed, but a potentially disastrous side effect - along with pollution and a growing income gap between urban and rural regions - is the effects obesity will have on the country's fragile healthcare system. Today's overweight in China can look to a mixed future of bright economic hopes for their country, and poor and deteriorating health for themselves. From a situation 20 years ago when diets were limited by food availability, and famine was still a recent memory, China's urban centres have seen alarmingly rising rates of obesity. Throughout the country an estimated 200 million people out of a total population of around 1.3 billion were overweight (over 15%).
Why is this issue so important? Taking into account that the recent period of stable world economic growth has in large part been driven by the availability of cheap labour in China, which produces much of the goods that keep the retail tills ringing elsewhere in the world, the issue of China's rising obesity is an issue of potentially global economic significance. Consider a scenario just a few years down the line, where there are so many overweight urban Chinese, suffering from obesity-related illness, that the government, in order to pay for increased healthcare treatments, has to raise the levels of income and other tax to pay for this huge and continual expense.

Looking at various synergies in terms of products
Discussion points
Bajaj to focus on the sub 3.5-tonne segment where volumes are high
Renault is in the utility category in the range of 1-5 tonnes
Bajaj also looking at the cargo segment where Renault is not a high volume player
Priyanka Vyas
New Delhi, May 15 Renault's series of engagements in the domestic market has led to its discussions for an alliance with Bajaj Auto for the light commercial vehicles (LCV) segment remaining at a nascent stage. Renault-Nissan along with Bajaj on Monday announced plans to launch a car that would compete with Tata's Nano. Besides, Renault-Nissan is also setting up a facility in Tamil Nadu to produce passenger cars.
While Bajaj Auto has indicated that it was open to an alliance with Renault for the LCV business, it said the discussions were at an early stage and a many issues needed to be addressed.
"The discussions are at an early stage as the main focus has always been the car. However, we are looking at various synergies in terms of products and the volumes that we could have in those segments," said Mr R. C. Maheswari, Commercial Vehicles Business Head at Bajaj Auto.
Renault said that the task of launching a car with Bajaj required lot of effort along with its expansion with Nissan to produce cars in Chennai. This also could be the reason for the slower pace in discussions. "We have not really discussed the intricacies for the LCV business unlike in the case of the car. A lot of effort is being put on the engineering front for the low-cost car which is entirely a deviation for our company. There are lot of activities happening around our upcoming facility in Tamil Nadu," said a Renault spokesperson.
Mr Maheswari said that Bajaj was focusing more on the sub 3.5-tonne segment in the light commercial vehicle where the volumes are high in markets such as India and China due to the hub and the spoke model. However, Renault vehicles are more in the utility category in the range of 1-5 tonnes.
"However, our platforms are very adaptable to the kind of LCVs that we want to produce," said a Renault spokesperson. Renault also produces trucks in Europe that are sold under its brand name, but Volvo has the license for marketing and distribution.
Bajaj is exploring opportunities for alliance in the cargo segment where Renault is not a high volume player. Bajaj, being a three-wheeler player, plans to restrict itself mainly to the sub 3.5-tonne segment and does not want to leapfrog in to the top end category which would require massive investments, Mr Maheswari.
Besides, beginning from the lower end of the LCV segment would be an extension of its existing business and also give the company time in understanding the market and leveraging its existing three-wheeler distribution network. Industry analysts point out that Bajaj is feeling the pinch with Tata's Ace in the sub one-tonne segment and Piaggio Ape. Morever, it would be able to achieve high volumes only in the lower end of the segment.Related Stories:

Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I have a Dream" speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial."I decided that I was going to go, and I wasn't going to tell my parents," Carson said. "They found out later."Two decades later, Carson would receive an unexpected phone call from Coretta Scott King asking him to serve as the editor of the King's Papers project....
