At 0250, the box alarm was transmitted for a reported house on fire with children trappped in the 5100blk of North Englewood Drive in company 38's first due. Engine 33 and Tower 33 responded on the run with a total of 10 volunteers. Engine 38 arrived on scene with fire showing from the first floor of 2 story cape cod and a report of children trapped in the residence. Engine 33 (4th due) assumed 3rd, established a secondary water supply and stretched the 250' 1.5" preconnect to side-C. Engine 33's OIC gave a side-C report and then established the "North Englewood Drive Command" until the battalion chief's arrival. The engine entered the basement via the exterior entrance and advanced their attack line to the 2nd floor to check for extension and to protect searching crews.Tower 33 (2nd due) arrived as the 1st due special service and immediately went to work searching for the children that were reported trapped in the residence while Engine 38 knocked the fire down on the first floor. The children were found immediately and assisted out of the house by first arriving units. The tower completed a primary search on the 2nd floor and was assigned the Division 2 supervisor by command.Command requested an additional engine and truck to the scene, bringing the third crew from Kentland, Engine 33B, and the unit staged until being released.

The Kentland Volunteers dumped the house and made quick work of an early evening house fire on Monday when a local resident reported smoke coming from his neighbor's house. With smoke showing from Sides A and C, Engine 331 laid out and stretched the bumper line, while the Pumper (Engine 332) picked up the line and stretched a backup handline. Tower 33 ventilated and searched, finding fire in a bedroom and no victims. Command quickly scaled the incident back to the units from 33 after Engine Co 33 knocked the fire and a secondary was completed.

Tower Ladder 33 responded as the first due special serviceon this Monday morning box alarm, and was the first fire department unit to arrive on the scene of a two story, middle of the row townhouse with
smoke showing from the first and second floors. Tower 33's interior crew entered the home to
find a fire involving the kitchen in the first floor. While the exterior crew laddered the building and prepared for ventilation, Engine Co 38 arrived and began to stretch an attack line. The interior team conducted primary (of the 1st floor) and
secondary (of the 2nd floor) searches, which were negative. Units went in service after 60

On Monday April 6th while operating on a 3 alarm building fire on Ashwood Drive in Capitol heights, Rescue Engine 33 was destroyed after propane tanks exploded and caused roofing tar and fire to spread, rapidly overtaking the apparatus. The crew suffered minor injuries and were all released from the burn unit overnight. The outpouring of support is humbling and many have requested to make donations in support of the department. While the apparatus was insured, the Rescue Engine was a 2000 Pierce dash and the price to replace the unit today stretches beyond the limits of the insurance. This May, the Kentland Volunteer Fire department will celebrate 20 years of 100% volunteer service to the citizens and visitors of Prince George's County and the surrounding communities. Support from our fellow departments , friends and citizens is what makes all this possible. Our members operated on this incident in the highest tradition of the Kentland Volunteer fire department, and while the loss of our Rescue Engine is disheartening, we stand united in our dedication to the community, the Department and our unwavering membership. Some people have asked "What about the insurance?" The insurance is going to fall short of replacing our Rescue Engine by about 60%. We are a 501c-3 non profit fire department and we own all our apparatus. We receive minimal funding from the county (ie maintenance, fuel and partial insurance). We raise funds through grants, merchandise sales and community outreach. Through these efforts and the dedication of our members we are able to continue providing the citizens and visitors of Prince George's county superb Fire, Rescue and Emergency Medical services. Thank you for your support!http://www.gofundme.com/rescueengine33

At 5:03 this morning Engine 331, Engine 332 and Deputy Chief 33 responded to 7109 East Ridge Dr in the Columbia Park section of the first due for a reported house on fire. Company 33 arrived on the scene to find fire showing from a single story wood frame dwelling. As the Engines established their water supply and stretched attack lines, Deputy Chief 33 established command. The fire was knocked and all searches were competed with negative results. Company 33 performed overhaul and assisted investigators for approx 2 hours before returning to service.
Tuesday, April 7, 2015
At 1715, hours, units from the Greater Landover area were dispatched for a building fire at 8740 Ashwood Drive. Rescue Engine 33 (operating as a Rescue Squad) responded to the scene with 5 personnel, a large column of smoke could be seen as soon as the crew left the station. The fire involved a large pile of building materials and several vehicles adjoining a large commercial building, prompting first due Engine Co 38 to request the second alarm upon arrival. Rescue Squad 33 arrived as the second special service and worked to position themselves on the C-charlie side per the SOPs. Noting the large volume of fire as the unit approached the rear of the buildings, the decision was made by the officer to position behind the Delta-1 exposure, upwind of the fire building and approximately 300' away from the edge of the fire area. The crew used saws to cut several chainlink gates and a fence to gain access to the area where the burning materials were being stored. Once in the rear, the OIC of Rescue Squad 33 gave returns (radio reports) on the conditions of the fire building and the multiple exposure buildings. Although there was some heat from the fire, the conditions in the storage yard were tenable. As other units began to arrive and worked to establish a water supply in the rear, the crew of the Rescue Squad was able to examine and report the conditions of the fire building and exposures. At approximately 8 minutes into the incident, the winds shifted towards the Charlie Side and conditions immediately deteriorated to near-zero visibility and high heat. As fire reached the pallets in the rear, the panels of foam-type insulation turned to a flaming, molten liquid and began to follow the path of the terrain, igniting everything it touched. Within seconds, what had been a tenable operating position in an open air environment became a rapidly advancing wall of fire, as pallet stack after pallet stack lit off. Recognizing the severity of the situation, the Squad OIC immediately made the call for the crew to evacuate the area, but the speed of the flowing "lava" was so great that the crew of the Rescue Squad became cut off from their exit. As the members attempted to make their way toward the hole they had minutes ago cut in the fence, the liquid enveloped their feet and legs, hardening to their gear and scalding their skin. The members used everything available to gain elevation from the liquid and remove themselves from the deteriorating wildfire-like scenario. Drawn by the contour of the land, the burning liquid reached the Rescue Squad, parked behind the exposure building, igniting the vehicle immediately upon contact; within a minute, the unit was fully involved in fire, despite the efforts of the crew to extinguish it. Unimpeded in its progress, the wall of flame continued to advance while the crew managed to escape the area to the location of Engine Company 28, several yards behind the Rescue Squad, where they were able to get water on their super-heated gear and re-initiate fire attack. However, mere moments later, the steadily advancing flame front reached the front of Company 28's Engine and it soon met the same fate as Rescue Squad 33. A short time later, a water supply for the rear was reestablished and the Rescue Squad crew worked with others to extinguish the flames. In total the fire went to three alarms before being brought under control.

With a working fire going on in Company 19's first due Tower 33 took in a transfer to Company 18. At 2130 hours, Egine 331 and Squad 33, along with Chief 33A, were alerted for a "house" in the area of 11000 Herrington Court. While units were responding, Communications advised they were receiving several calls for a house on fire in the area, but were unsure of a corrected address. Within minutes, Ambulance 846 arrived on scene with a updated address of 306 Bennington Court, which is to the rear of the dispatched address, reporting that the 2 story detached dwelling had fire venting through the roof. Chief 33A arrived and established Command; Engine 331 arrived next and requested to take first due responsibilities. After the request was granted, Engine Co 33's crew stretched the 150' bumper line to the front door. Squad 33 arrived next, also taking over first due responsibilities, forced the front door for the Engine crew and threw several ladders. Upon entry, the crew encountered fire conditions throughout the second floor and Engine 331's lineman worked aggressively to quickly extinguish the same. Squad 33's crew assisted with opening up after the fire was knocked the and the assignment was scaled back to Company 33, who operated for several hours before returning to Kentland.
Sunday, March 29, 2015
At 0330 hours Rescue Engine 33 was alerted to the Capital Beltway for a 9-I with a report of one trapped. The Rescue Engine arrived first, and the OIC established Command, confirming one trapped in the vehicle, while the rest of the crew went to work stabilizing the vehicle. The victim was trapped by the guardrail, which had penetrated the passenger compartment and needed to be cut and removed to make access. Unfortunately, the victim was pronounced on scene after being extricated from the vehicle.
Sunday, March 29, 2015
Paramedic Ambulance 805 came upon a single vehicle accident in the area of the Addison Road Metro on Saturday night, bringing Rescue Engine 33 to cut the trapped victims out of an antique Oldsmobile sedan. The crew stabilized the vehicle, which had impacted a tree, and extricated the driver (Pri 4) and a child in a car seat (Pri 1). Volunteer Chief 8 had the Command.

Arizona Cardinals
Notes from the Nest: Arizona Cardinals practice - Dec. 5
TEMPE, Ariz. -- The Cardinals were back at work Thursday on an absolutely gorgeous Arizona day. It was assistant coaches day for the media, so we got to talk to offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin and defensive coordinator Todd Bowles.
Of Note
- Goodwin was asked if left tackle Bradley Sowell is ready to face Robert Quinn Sunday, and he responded by saying he does not know if any left tackle is ever really prepared to face the game's elite defensive ends.
- When pressed on the health of some of his players, though, Goodwin was less forthcoming. Asked about QB Carson Palmer, who has an elbow issue, Goodwin said, "I don't talk about injuries; as far as I know, he practiced today."
- Following practice, Cardinals President Michael Bidwill held a press conference to discuss Jay Feely being named the Cardinals' Walter Payton Man of the Year. Bidwill said they "couldn't be more pleased" that Feely got the honor.
- Safety Rashad Johnson said there's little difference for the team in preparing for a quarterback like Kellen Clemens, who they have not seen much of.
- Bowles does not seem terribly concerned with his team's struggles in defending tight ends. Referencing last Sunday's game against the Eagles, he said, "Going into the ballgame you try to take away McCoy, you try to take away Jackson, you try to take away Cooper" while trying to limit the damage done by the tight ends. But, he admitted the team needed to play better defense in the red zone.
Stat of the Day
Rams QB Kellen Clemens has appeared in just one game against the Cardinals during his career. He threw one incomplete pass in the Rams' 31-17 win over Arizona last season.
Quote of the Day
"I think we're getting better as an offense and in the run game and there's more opportunity," running back Rashard Mendenhall said of his improved play. "I've been able to capitalize on that."
This Day in Arizona Cardinals History
On December 5, 1993, the Cardinals destroyed the L.A. Rams by a score of 38-10.
The game, which was played at Sun Devil Stadium, was hardly competitive, and the Cardinals never trailed.
Ronald Moore was the star of the show for the Cardinals, as the running back carried the ball 29 times for 126 yards and four touchdowns. Receiver Gary Clark hauled in eight passes for 159 yards and a score, and quarterback Steve Beurlein completed 14-of-25 passes for 250 yards and a touchdown.
Interestingly, there were only three penalties called the entire game, and the win improved the Cards to 4-8 on the season.

Baseball - Camden Yards, Baltimore
16 Reviews
16 Reviews
If it weren't for sports, Baltimore wouldn't have much. Luckily, Baltimore sport fans have many heroes, and those are well-deserved. One of the greatest is Cal Ripken, the "Ironman" of baseball. He broke Lou Gehrig's record of 2,130 consecutive games played, then went on to stretch the record to 2,632 straight games before he was finally pulled from a game. Besides his string of consecutive games played, Cal Ripken also is one of the best shortstops to ever play the game, with 19 All Star appearances and over 3,000 career hits.
Ripken was born in nearby Aberdeen , Maryland.
The Sports Legends Museum opened in 2005 in historic Camden Station next to Orioles Park. Camden Station opened in 1856 as part of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. In 2005, after years of disuse, the Babe Ruth Museum took over the space and opened the Sports Legends Museum.
The huge B&O Warehouse dominates right field at Camden Yards in downtown Baltimore. This structure was built by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in 1899 B&O's next to Camden Station and Camden Railroad Yard. The railroad used the facility until the 1960s when it was all but abandoned. When Oriole Park was created in 1992, the building was renovated and is now used as office space, restaurants, and other functions, many related to the park.
Oriole Park at Camden Yards opened in 1992 and it set the standard for design and comfort in modern American stadiums. It is located just minutes from the Inner Harbor by foot, and only two blocks from Babe Ruth's boyhood home (now a museum). The 50,000 seat stadium was built by mow-famous stadium architect HOK at a cost of just $110 million. The park blends modern amenities with traditional design elements, as the architects borrowed design inspiration from historic stadiums such as Ebbets Field (Brooklyn), Shibe Park (Philadelphia), Fenway Park (Boston), Crosley Field (Cincinnati), Forbes Fields (Pittsburgh), Wrigley Field (Chicago), and The Polo Grounds (New York).
As of 2009, single game tickets start at just $8 and go up to $60 per seat. The cheap seats are pretty bad here, so I'd get the cheapest tickets you can find and just wander around. The best place to watch the game is behind the bullpens in left-center field. You can stand here all game without being harassed by the ushers.
After you take a tour of this wonderful place. If you have enough time, you should watch a game. What I found so neat is it was just within walking distance from my hotel. It is just down the street practically of the Inner Harbor, so if your staying close you have all these wonderful things to do and see at your door step. Fantastic!
From Washington D.C., Virginia and Points South: Take MD 295 (B-W Pkwy//Russell St.) to downtown Baltimore. Continue onto Russell Street and turn Right onto Lee Street or Hamburg St. just after Ravens Stadium for Lots F, G, H. or turn right on to Pratt Street to parking garages and lots in the city
In 2005, my son's traveling team coach arranged for the team to go up to Maryland to participate in a tournament at Cal Ripken's place. As a part of the deal, they played a couple of games with a Washington D.C. area team, and visited several historic places in that area, and then came to see the Orioles play in Baltimore.
Well number three came and went the summer of 1997. Went with my sister and brother in law to watch and O's White Sox game. Also made it back for 3 of the 4 Yankee games that September. I love this ball park. It is number 2 on my list of favorite places to watch a game.
Lately there are always tickets available. You can as often find visiting fans here as O's fans.
when in baltimore try to catch a game of baseball if you have the time.
it's a great way to explore one very american thing and baltimore has one of the better team in the US called the baltimore orioles.
Equipment: a baseball cap will make you fit in well.
BaltOberfest unofficially kicked off with a trip to Camden Yards to see the Orioles take on the Boston Red Sox. Camden Yards is a newer stadium, opened in 1993, so the bathrooms are clean and there are lots of overpriced places to grab a bite to eat lining the inside of the stadium. The group managed to eat just about all the traditional bad baseball food including nachos, hot dogs and pretzels with mustard along with a few beers to wash down all that salt.
This late in the season, the Orioles were already out of contention to get into the playoffs so there were LOTS of empty seats and MORE Red Sox fans than Orioles fans confusing the heck out of us non locals who thought it was a good idea to cheer when everyone else did. Hmmm, in Chicago, Cubs fans love their team even when they lose (what choice do they have?), Baltimore natives are fickle!
Our hosts arranged for a couple of nice surprises for us, Virtual Tourist was printed on our tickets AND our name popped up on the scoreboard at the bottom of the 2nd. Cool! For some pics of the event, click here.
The location is very convenient for visitors to the city, it was within walking distance of the Inner Harbor and most of the hotels. If you're looking for a place to have a drink or a bit to eat before the game, the Wharf Rat at 206 W. Pratt was a good option.
Equipment: If you plan on rooting for the home team, wear orange and black!
If you want to go to an Orioles game and don't already have a ticket, do what many smart Baltimore natives do: head to the scalp-free zone. Located on the outside of the stadium across the street from Pickles Pub (or in what would be very deep left field), the scalp-free zone is an officially-sanctioned place where ordinary people can sell their left-over tickets. It's called scalp-free because the only rule is that the seller cannot ask for more than face value -- under face value is fine. At the scalp-free zone, we have gotten great seats right behind home plate or in the luxury boxes for steep discounts. Often the sellers are people whose guests cancelled out or they hold corporate box seats for games they don't want to attend but hope to recoup a bit of cash (but since it's free money they might not be trying to cover losses).
Before you go, however, give a little thought to the laws of supply and demand. If the Orioles are losing and the visiting team isn't the Yankees or Red Sox, the market is likely to be in your favor, and you can get good seats for cheap. If the Orioles are doing well, no matter who the opponent is, you might find there are only a few sellers and many buyers. Given the way the O's have played in since the turn of the century, this hasn't happened often. The best time to go: a day game that is being played as a result of a rain-out, as most original ticketholders might be unable to get out of work to make the game, but might spebd their lunch hour dumping their tickets. Another good tip: on high-demand days, go alone -- singletons are easy to get.
In 1857 , Camden Station was completed. It served as headquarters of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, ferried telegraph messages of Civil War movements, and hosted three visits by President Abraham Lincoln, including a stopover on his way to give the celebrated Gettysburg Address.
In the 'old' days , teams traveled by railroad. So this whole area is now in its second life as a tourist attraction.
A total hodgepodge of sports history of Baltimore/ Maryland.
Opened in the year 1993, this forever classic stadium seems to function as a world within itself.
Parking is abundant around the stadium, but the lots adjacent to Camden Yards are for parking pass-holders only. There are tons of lots near Ravens Stadium, on surrounding side-streets, and near the Inner Harbor.
Once inside the stadium, treat yourself to a few cold beers inside Bambinos Pub, or grab a sandwich at Boog Powell's bbq stand (Boog's BBQ). Microbrews can also be purchased at various stands around the stadium walkways.
Walk around the outfield down Eutaw Street to check out the baseball-shaped plaques that are embedded into the sidewalk, marking each homerun belted out of the park. Don't forget to look at the wall of the B&O Warehouse! Ken Griffey Jr. has a baseball plaque on the wall, since he hit a homerun blast that bounced off the warehouse (an estimated 460 feet) in the 1993 All-Star Home Run Derby.
Every seat in the house is a great seat. Don't stress too much about finding tickets in the perfect location. Tickets are usually easy to come by, even on game day, unless the Yankees or Red Sox are in town. If you are unable to get tickets on the Orioles website, you can always get tickets from the window with little problem.
Or, you can walk to Gate F, where Camden Yards has set up a "scalp free zone". This is a monitored area where ticketholders can sell their tickets on gameday. Because the area is monitored, these ticketholders are not allowed to sell their tickets above face value, so you will not get ripped off when purchasing last minute tickets. Most of them also carry a seating chart of the stadium so you know exactly where you are going to sit. Sellers are basically season ticketholders/locals who are not able to make it to that days game.
Camden Yards is an unforgettable stadium and a must see for all baseball fans. Plus, there is so much to see and do around the Camden yards area, a night at the game can easily be turned into a weekend of fun and excitement in beautiful Baltimore!
The Baltimore Orioles play at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. This ballpark is one of the best ballparks in all of baseball. It is fan-friendly, the seating area is well designed, and the atmosphere is amazing. Capacity is just under 49,000.
The Orioles play in the American League East, so division rivals include the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees.
When at the stadium, check out Eutaw Street, the area between right field and the warehouse. It is open every day, but closes at 3 PM for night games and reopens at 5 PM. You will find concession areas and shops here. Try to look for the bronze baseballs embedded into the sidewalk to mark the spot of home runs clearing the park. You will also see the Babe Ruth statue and monuments commemorating retired numbers in Orioles history.
The warehouse's official name is B & O Warehouse. It is the longest building on the east coast at 1,116 ft, but only 51 ft wide.
An interesting fact is that center field of Oriole Park was once the location of the bar and that Babe Ruth's father once owned and the family's residence.
Equipment: Good seats and tickets for good games will be hard to find. You might want to find a scalper or ticket broker if you want good seats. If you don't care where you sit, you shouldn't have a problem getting in for most games. Ticket prices range from $8 - $40.
Attending an Oriole game at Camden Yards will convert the biggest sport idiot (me) into a baseball fan. The crowd is overall friendly, I've always had the most fun in the 'cheap seats.' The crowd is the most boisterous, and fly balls head that way quite often.
Equipment: $$$$
The Ravens and The Orioles....
Our biggest sports teams..... Many people would love to be in a photo like this....
Well, I was in the right place at the right time. It's too bad that I'm not really a fan of Football at all. Baseball only interests me when I'm physically in the stadium....

BSP seen to maintain key rates at record lows
popular .
Monetary authorities are expected to keep interest rates at record lows until the middle of next year.
Financial giant Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. (ANZ) said that, despite the country's healthy growth, inflation remains modest, giving the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) scope to hold policy rates and keep borrowing costs down.
"We maintain our call for the BSP to hold its policy overnight borrowing rate at 3.50 percent through the first half of 2014," ANZ said in a research note this week. "With 12-month average inflation at 3.1 percent year-on-year as of July, the scope to hike rates has declined."
The BSP's overnight borrowing and lending rates currently stand at record lows of 3.5 and 5.5 percent.
Yields for special deposit accounts (SDA) are also at a record low of 2 percent across all maturities.
The BSP's next policy stance meeting will be on Thursday next week.
Low policy rates help encourage economic activity by influencing banks to lower the cost of funds for businesses and consumers. Conversely, higher policy rates restrict economic activity, which keeps consumer prices from rising to the point of choking the economy.
According to ANZ, the BSP may hike rates by the second half, starting with a 25 basis-point increase in overnight borrowing and lending rates. The BSP recently noted a surge in the growth of domestic liquidity or M3.
M3 growth reached 20.3 percent in June—the fastest rate in six years.
ANZ said that, with domestic liquidity "swelling," the rate of price increases may start to accelerate by next year.
The government is scheduled to release inflation data for August this week.
Last week, the BSP said inflation likely settled between 1.9 percent and 2.7 percent for the month as lower power prices offset the effects of the higher cost of fuel due to a weaker peso.

A Production Possibility Curve (PPC) is a curve consisting of all efficient combinations of output that can be produced in an economy using the given inputs. The basic idea behind a PPC is that an economy can produce more of one good only by producing less of the other good.
For the given situation, there are two goods which are produced in an economy: Public capital goods and Consumer goods. The economy is operating at point A where it is producing 0 public capital goods and maximum consumer goods. The PPC looks like:
Given, an increase in public capital leads to an increase in the production of both private and consumer goods. This is because public capital or investment is made so as to increase the purchasing power of the consumers, thus increasing consumption as well as production of both private and consumer goods. Similarly, an increase in public capital or investment leads to a more than proportionate increase in the stock of private capital.
So, given these situations, when the economy increases its output of public capital, it will therefore lead to an increase in both its private goods and consumer goods. As a result, the PPC curve will shift out parallely, rather than proportionately. As it can be seen in Figure-2 below:
An increase in public capital goods also leads to an increase in its stock of private capital, as an increase in public investment makes the production of private and consumer goods more efficient.
Therefore, an increase in public capital goods will lead to an increase in country's private capital (because of higher efficiency in the economy), PPC curve will shift out due to higher production of both goods because of higher efficiency of the economy and the standard of living will increase as the people in the economy will be able to get and produce higher quantity of both consumer and public goods.

NEW YORK (AP) — Kraft Foods is suing Cracker Barrel Old Country Store over the restaurant chain's plans to use the "Cracker Barrel" name on packaged ham, bacon and other foods.
Kraft notes that it started using the "Cracker Barrel" name on cheese in 1954. Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc., which is based in Lebanon, Tenn. and operates 620 locations around the country, was established in 1969.
Kraft says it never took any formal legal action until now because the chain had kept its distance and sold only a very limited number of mixes, candies and sauces through its shops and website. But Kraft says Cracker Barrel Old Country Store's recent licensing agreement to sell foods including "assorted lunch meats, glazes, jerky and summer sausage" could give the products a much broader audience at supermarket and big-box retailers such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and cause confusion among consumers.
Kraft said that could harm the reputation of its "award-winning" Cracker Barrel cheese, which has generated sales of more than $100 million a year since 2000. In the lawsuit, Kraft notes the hundreds of awards its cheese has won through the decades, including "17 gold medals in the New York State Fair from 1959 to 1987."

Dear Maria:
Last week has been hellish for India. Every young Indian, and there are 600 million of them (enough to run Putin and Russia over) the not so young, including an ageing sex Godman N D Tiwari are grieving. You Babushka. Don't you know who Tendulkar is? Don't you watch cricket, the world's most loved sport with one of the most honest people of our times, N Srinivasan chairing the ICC?
You call yourself a tennis player. What's tennis? You guys get excited when you have 700 stiff upper lipped jerks watching you grunt and moan (Tiwari is getting excited now) on some patch of green called Wimbledon. Tendulkar bats in front of 60,000 people every time he plays. And there are billions that are watching him and not Arnab Goswami my friend. Now you'll say who's Arnab?
Which planet do you reside on Maria? I know you live in Florida and can be forgiven for a low IQ but how dare you insult Indians and our beloved sport. For years, as a nation, we have starved. Most of our sporting heroes either die or become fixers. Tendulkar was and is different. We finally got one real sporting hero so much so that we didn't ever want him to retire. And YOU don't know him? Don't you listen to the Bournvita Quiz Contest or for that matter see the MRF ads? How can you have the temerity to tell the world that you don't know who Tendulkar is? You ride some crap car whereas Tendulkar drives a Ferrari? You Russians know about Lada and the Mafia. Have you ever seen a Ferrari you Putinesque creature?
What are your achievements? Apart from looking good and playing some silly game? Do you know that Tendulkar got the Bharat Ratna? Now you'll tell us you don't know what the Bharat Ratna is. Normally Bharat Ratna is given to members of the Nehru-Gandhi family. We've also given it to Amartya Sen who is an economist and a dear friend of Jagdish Bhagwati. Now you will tell me you don't know who Sen and Bhagwati are? Do you at least know where Muzzafarnagar is? Knowing your antecedents you'll surely know who Abu Azam is? Anyway to come to the point, Tendulkar is a Bharat Ratna recipient and he sits in the Rajya Sabha: which is India's Upper House and he is one of the few blokes in the Rajya Sabha who hasn't had to pay his way to get there. Do you know what the Rajya Sabha is? He shares a seat with Rekha. Do you know who she is at least? She is one of the brightest stars and a celebrated mind, which is why she is in the Rajya Sabha. She is also someone who has never aged. So while you watch your grandchildren play at silly Wimbledon, Rekha will still look like your daughter.
Please do not treat India lightly and Tendulkar even more so. We now have a Prime Minister. Not a puppet. He is tougher than Putin even though he doesn't have to take off his clothes to prove so. Do not upset India ever. Never ever. Ever. Now go back into your hole and read everything about India. Google Tendulkar and then talk to us. Till then, every Indian will troll you on social media and make you so miserable that you might even be tempted to join the Indian Women's cricket team.
In aguish,

Clonezilla: Clone for Windows and Linux Machines
The latest version of the Norton Ghost clone for Linux brings improved support for Windows clients.
Clonezilla enables the cloning of partitions and complete hard drives with the advantage of saving and restoring only the used blocks on the hard disk, storing for example 100GByte in a lot less GByte space. Clonezilla is available as a Server Edition and as a Debian based Live-CD. Next to improvements for Windows users with NTFS data systems, the Spanish and Italian languages have been added, along with faster hardware recognition.
Particularly relevant for Linux users are the bugfixes in the handling of LVM volumes and the waiver of Swap partition reproduction. With the script: clone-multiple-usb-example.sh, multiple USB pen drives can be loaded from a single image. Clonezilla can be downloaded here (ca. 100MByte).

China's antitrust authority imposes fines on foreign corporations for the first time
Recently China's National Development and Reform Commission imposed an RMB353 million (USD 56.7 million) penalty against an international price-fixing cartel of LCD manufacturers, the largest the NDRC has ever imposed for antitrust infringement. The penalty is China's first enforcement action against an international cartel and sends a strong signal to multinational corporations operating in China that enforcement actions against cartels will not be limited to Chinese entities.

Christina is teaming up with Procter & Gamble to create the new scent. WWD reports that she said, "I love trying new things in my music and in fashion. To have a perfume of my own is the beginning of an exciting adventure. P&G is the ideal partner for this new experience." We think Christina should consider selling her signature red lipstick and nail polish as well. We bet that would be a big hit.

It doesn't matter what it smells like. People should stick with what they're good at instead of slapping their names on other people's products or venturing into fields in which they are in no way experienced. I esp hate models turned actresses and musicians turned actors.

As long as I'm totally screwing this up. HERE is my originally intended post!! Actually Proctor and Gamble (P&G) owns many lines of fragrances, including Hugo Boss, Escada, Lacoste, Valentino, Ghost, and Dolce and Gabbana, (also Naomi Campbell's fragrance - which probably smells like a blood soaked cell phone). They also own Max Factor, Cover Girl and Clairol. That said, I don't buy celebrity named fragrances. I have yet to see any celebrity who I'd want to buy a scent from. (It really speaks to how boring my day has been that this has given me the best laugh I've had all day)

Okay, I have to laugh. My internet has been up and down all day, and just now I was trying to post to Popsugar and email a friend, and I had to cut and paste both the comments and email so I wouldn't lose them. I just posted my email to her here, and emailed her the Popsugar post!! I am SO embarassed. Sorry Sugars!

Dollars & Change: 'Going Green' to Save 'the Green': Local Business Supplies Restaurants With Environmentally Friendly Goods
By Dennis Taylor, The Monterey County Herald, Calif.
Aug. 5–One way to cope with the challenges of a problematic environment and a sagging economy, Carolyn Swanson decided, was to start a business that teaches others how to "go green" and save money.
And it helps, of course, if your brain is already wired that way.
"I'm kind of frugal," admits the Pacific Grove woman, whose one-year-old business, Passion Purveyors, is growing fast. "I'm constantly asking myself how my grandma or grandpa would have done something, because that generation of people knew a lot of ways to save money."
How frugal is she? After graduating from Washington State University in 2003, she worked two jobs to save money for her wedding. Then, she and her fiance, Brandon Swanson, opted instead to elope — a
money-saving decision that provided enough to bankroll her new business.
The concept of Passion Purveyors is multi-pronged, but geared heavily toward distributing environmentally friendly goods — example: compostable packaging to replace Styrofoam — to local restaurants and offering their owners a lot of ways to cut down on waste, to shrink utility and garbage bills, and to reduce the carbon footprint of their businesses.
"The economy obviously is hurting a lot of sectors of the business world, but the green sector is thriving," Swanson said. "Seems like people are ready and willing to listen to new ideas and learn how to shift away from their old habits."
She practices what she preaches. Among her more than 60 clients,
some are located as far south as Big Sur or as far north as Santa Cruz, and delivery expenses to those locations kept rising with gas prices. So Swanson cut a "carpool" deal with another local company, Monterey Sanitary Supply, which is happy to haul her stuff with theirs for a small fee. More efficiency, less expense, smaller carbon footprint.
Swanson takes her attitude home at night. She keeps a full water bottle in her toilet tank, which saves water with every flush. She and her husband walk rather than drive whenever they can, which not only cuts down on gasoline bills and tailpipe emissions, but has trimmed their waistlines. They eat out less often than they used to — a money-saving decision — and throw away fewer table scraps. Most discarded leftovers go into a worm bin, where the squiggly creatures turn them into compost. The end-product, Swanson said, is much better fertilizer — and better for the environment — than Miracle-Gro and similar petroleum-based products.
"What I've found, most of all, is that people are excited about the whole idea," she said. "They like the concept, especially when they find out that it doesn't always cost more to do things the right way."
For information about Swanson's business, see www.passionpurveyors.com.

PADF's strategic goal is to provide development and post-disaster humanitarian assistance to 60 million low-income, vulnerable or excluded people throughout the LAC region.
PADF's "3Rs" approach to development in Haiti is helping to Return people to safe homes, Rebuild neighborhoods, and Restore livelihoods.
During the last 10 years, PADF's In-Kind Donations Program has shipped more than $35 million in medical equipment and tools to institutions in more than 20 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean.
PADF works to empower disadvantaged people in the Americas to achieve sustainable and economic progress, strengthen their communities, and prepare for and respond to natural disasters.
Based on the need to increase the resilience of vulnerable populations, save lives, and reduce the impact of disasters on informal settlements, PADF implemented the DRR project in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
Leveraging Effective Applications of Direct Investments (LEAD) is a USAID project that aims to attract investments in Small- and Medium-sized enterprises that are based in Haiti, as well as increase the development impact of remittances.

NYC to Chesapeake Advice Sought
Slips predominate over moorings here in Chesapeake country, and price depends quite a bit on location. Baltimore Inner Harbor or Annapolis will be higher than elsewhere. Once you work up an itinerary and have an idea where you want to leave the boat, then someone on the list probably can come up with an estimated cost for leaving the boat for a week. (I''ll put in a plug for the marina where I keep my boat, White Rocks Marina. It''s on Rock Creek, south shore of the Patapsco below Baltimore. Plenty of transient slips, and relatively close to BWI airport. If you want more info about it, let me know.)
As for "must see" places -- how far south do you intend to go? Annapolis, Solomons Island, Deltaville? Working your way from north to south, some suggestions are the Sassafras River and Georgetown, Rock Hall, the Chester River (loads of creeks to explore),Baltimore''s Inner Harbor,Annapolis, St. Michaels, Oxford, Solomons Island, Crisfield -- and that''s just Maryland. It also depends on whether you prefer towns or scenic anchorages.
You really can hardly go wrong on a place to drop the anchor on the Chesapeake. We all have our favorite spots. Do some more thinking/planning and then run those ideas by the list. Good luck. I find the planning is almost as much fun as the cruise itself.

I'm delighted it's back and I look forward to it every year and so do the many who donate or the programme wouldn't be repeated year after year.

It'll be interesting to see what comedy lazy arses decide to take the predictable man dressed up as a woman route.
I prefer the comedy element as opposed to those who could possibly view it as a career move into singing - now those we certainly do have enough of.
Robert Webb was brilliant in his routine but I also thought Keith Lemon (who I detest) and the bloke he partnered with, were, imo, very very good (not to mention brave with that jump) and deserved to win. I'd never heard of Roland Rivron or Weapon of Choice but after he won, I googled it and watch Christopher Walken (love him) and I think Rivron did a good job considering it was live and without special effects.
For those who enter this programme to try and make people smile - good on you and thank you, you certainly make me smile. So if you don't like it - don't watch it.

This report presents a portrait of the foreign-born population in the United States. The U.S. Census Bureau uses the term foreign born to refer to anyone who is not a U.S. citizen at birth. This includes naturalized citizens, lawful permanent residents, temporary migrants (such as foreign students), humanitarian migrants (such as refugees), and undocumented migrants. The term native born refers to anyone born in the United States, Puerto Rico, or a U.S. Island Area, or those born abroad of at least one U.S. citizen parent.
Information on the demographic, social, economic, and housing characteristics presented in this report is based on data from the 2010 American Community Survey (ACS).
In this report, data on the foreign born are presented by broad region of birth, including Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, Northern America, and Oceania. More detail is shown for Latin America and the
Caribbean—including Mexico, Other Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. For this report, the category Other Central America excludes Mexico but includes the remaining countries of Central America.3 In the graphs displaying information by nativity and place of birth, data on the total, native, and foreign-born populations as well as the regions of birth are shown in light green, while the areas within Latin America are shown in light blue.
Data are shown for population (e.g., age, marital status, occupation) and household (e.g., size, type, income) characteristics. A household is a person or a group of people who occupy a housing unit as their current residence. College residence halls, military barracks, correctional facilities, and other group quarters are not included. A householder is usually the person, or one of the people, in whose name the home is owned, being bought, or rented. A family household consists of a householder and one or more people living together in the same household who are related to the householder by birth, marriage, or adoption. It may also include people unrelated to the householder. The nativity status and place of birth of a household are determined by the nativity status and place of birth of the householder. A household with a foreign-born householder may also contain native residents, and a household with a native householder may also contain foreign-born residents.
The 2010 ACS estimated the number of foreign born in the United States to be nearly 40 million, or 13 percent of
the total population (Table 1).
The foreign-born population from Latin America was the largest region-of-birth group, accounting for over half (53 percent) of all foreign born (Table 2). By comparison, 28 percent of the foreign born were born in Asia, 12 percent in Europe, 4 percent in Africa, 2 percent in Northern America, and less than 1 percent in Oceania. Among the 21.2 million foreign born from Latin America, 11.7 million, or over half (55 percent), were born in Mexico. Of the total foreign-born population, 29 percent were born in Mexico.
