Injury Firm Promotes Boat Safety with Rhode Island Boating News and Informational Graphic
d'Oliveira & Associates is celebrating boat season by providing information on Rhode Island's "Operation Dry Water" and releasing a new infographic.
(PRWEB) July 01, 2013
Rhode Island is nicknamed the "Ocean State" because it has over 400 miles of coastline and 35 islands within its borders. With such easy access to the ocean, the state has a lot of boat activity. Whether it's a fishing boat bringing in the catch of the day or a sailboat sightseeing, operators should always maneuver their boats safely through the water. One easy way to reduce the number of boating accidents and deaths is to avoid Boating Under the Influence (BUI). To reduce the number of BUI accidents, states across the country are taking part in Operation Dry Water. This weekend (June 28-30) the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management and the U.S. Coast Guard are participating in this program in order to educate boaters about safety and enforce the law. The program features increased law enforcement patrols that will contact local boaters and talk to them about safety. Last year, marine law enforcement across the United States contacted over 110,000 boaters during Operation Dry Water. Law enforcement also made 337 BUI arrests and issued 4,819 citations and 9,695 warnings (i).
Attorney Paul d'Oliveira stated, "Operation Dry Water is a great initiative because it gives the state an opportunity to talk to boaters about the dangers of BUI in an informal setting. It is important for people to take time to obey this law especially during this time of year because June and July are some of the busiest months for boaters."
Statistics from the U.S. Coast Guard show that there are over 12 million recreational boats registered throughout the country. In 2012, there were 4,515 boat accidents causing 3,000 injuries and 651 deaths. The top five causes of these boat accidents were (1) operator inattention, (2) operator inexperience, (3) improper lookout, (4) machinery failure, and (5) excessive speed. Additionally, alcohol was a contributing factor in 17% of all boating deaths (ii). The new boating graphic from the law firm provides more statistics and emphasizes the importance of life jackets. Visit the boating webpage and view the boating infographic.
d'Oliveira & Associates has 15 locations throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts. The law firm has been providing clients with personal injury and Social Security Disability advice for over 24 years. Call 1-800-992-6878 or fill out a contact form online for a free legal consultation.

How to use it to cut through content clutter.
Today's Internet can seem like a vast sea of largely unregulated blogs, forums, news sites, and essentially - digital clutter. With infinite sources targeting and competing for the attention of customers, it's easy to get lost in all the noise. While many companies' digital marketing strategies operate under the philosophy that "If you build it, they will come," this is not sufficient as an approach. Companies can no longer engage in a one-way communication channel without taking into consideration what consumers actually want out of their content environments. Consumers are fickle and they're hungry for meaningful, up-to-date, bite-sized content relevant to the moment. With people constantly accessing information on several different devices multiple times per day, online marketing strategies must keep pace with this always-on, yet ever-changing content consumption behavior and traversing of content environments. The solution is one simple operating principle: relevance.
The Relevance Principle
Relevance is the most essential component to solving today's content marketing challenges. It sounds simple but relevancy is something that even the savviest CMOs can overlook. Not only must marketers establish effective content distribution channels, including blogs, social media, newsletters, and microsites, but they must also stay relevant by constantly evolving, maintaining, and updating these channels with fresh, meaningful content that appeals to their target customers and what they do online. Researching, reading, reviewing, participating in community, communicating, liking, bookmarking, sharing, and purchasing all have their nuances.
But how do marketers find, organize, and distribute relevant content in real time - and sustain that relevancy? The easiest, most effective way to do this is by employing a dynamic content marketing management platform. This will enable a company to discover, curate, and distribute the best content from around the web, including news articles, blogs, videos, tweets, and photos.
A good content marketing management platform will allow marketers to easily customize content streams from various places online and stream them directly to one dashboard for easy management. That way, businesses can package and integrate this content across several marketing channels, creating a world of efficiencies.
One of the most valuable things about a content marketing management platform is the analytics it will provide, which is an important aspect of driving relevancy. A good platform will arm companies with valuable data, insights, and tracking information that will tell them everything about what content is working and what content isn't - with the goal to maximize audience engagement. This helps identify relevant content, which can aid in increasing loyalty, creating new customer engagement opportunities, and driving key conversion metrics. In addition, an effective solution will help businesses better engage customers, imagine new ways to amplify website traffic, automate content marketing, build thought-leadership, improve competitive intelligence, increase lead conversion, and reduce digital publishing costs.
With the right content marketing management partner supporting you behind the scenes, marketers can efficiently and cost-effectively become an authority on relevant topics. For instance, a company can add a management tool to curate articles based on topic and relevancy, pull them into a customized dashboard, and efficiently create a much more textured content package. This approach to thought leadership satisfies the content needs of today's always-on consumer who prefers to scan shorter content on websites and tap into multiple touch points rather than delving into long-form editorial.
Taking advantage of the right platform simplifies the content marketing management process, and drives measurable results. Combined with your commitment to the principle itself - content marketing management is your path to relevancy, which must always be your true north.

Thanks for the info on the screen! I've got the BMW touring screen coming and I've been thnking of adding a laminar lip to that and now I'm sold!
I'm also looking at the Saeng Wingtip as another choice and trying to decide between the two arrggghhh decision decision decisions....
Thanks for the write ups and replies!!!
Hey Blackie,
Lol, might snow on us this month yet!
The 650 is a great bike and a very compelling value, a lot of people should be seriously considering it, especially if they don't head off road much.
The wingtip looks cool, I'd be interested to see how high the touring screen
actually is as well. I always thought that a business should have a sample pack of a couple of options that they send out, let us try and we get to keep the one we like. Let me know how you like the screen.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OverviewColonel Carus Brom was the steadfast commander of the Tartarus 37th Imperial Guard Regiment. A staunch servant of the Imperium and the Emperor, his life, and the lives of his men, is to be used to further the will of the Emperor, even unto death.Tartarus was the subjct of an Ork Waagh led by Ork Warboss Orkamungus. Leading his meager forces as best he could, Colonel Brom led a suicidial defense of the planet's key cities, relieved only at the last moment by Space Marines.Offering his services to the Space Marine's Force Commander, Captain Gabriel Angelos Colonel Brom could not have known that the Orks were only the beginning of the planet's worries. The ruinous powers of Chaos and the mysterious Eldar would turn Tartarus into a battlefield. The armies of the Imperium would fight in vain to win back Tartarus as a warp storm approached. Trivia Carus Brom Quotes: "Hold the line! In the name of the Emperor you will not falter!" "You will fight or you will die." "I am honoured to be in the presence of a Librarian. I wish to know how my men can better serve you." Voice Actor:Mark Oliver Hold the Line (Spoilers Below) MoraleAn Ork Waagh falls upon the Planet Tartarus, and the Tartarus 37th mobilize to defend the besieged planet. Colonel Carus Brom forms a defensive line to stop the green tide. The ferocity and speed of the Orks attack overwhelms the Imperial Guardsmen and their moral faltered.As the Tartarus line buckles, the crash of drop pods brings hope to the citizens of Tararus. The mighty Space Marines arrive and crush the Ork offensive. Captain Gabriel Angelos and the 3rd Company of the Blood Ravens make planet fall on Tartarus to purge the Xenos threat to the Imperial Planet. SupportWhen the Blood Ravens arrived to aid the overwhelmed Imperial Guard, Colonel Brom could feel only one emotion besides awe, and that was shame. His men had turned their backs on the Orks, and retreated from the Emperor's enemies. Captain Angelos offered praise for Brom's bravery, and left the discipline of the Tartarus 37th to the Colonel. Captain Angelos ordered Colonel Brom and his men to remain in a defensive posture while the Blood Ravens ran their operations.During the defense of Magna Bomun, Tartarus' capitol city, Captian Gabriel Angelos ordered Colonel Brom to concentrate his men into the city. The defensive of Magna Bomun was a success and the Orks were ousted from the city limits. EvacuationThe Ork's leader, Warboss Orkamungus, was successfully killed by the Blood Raven's offensive efforts. However, the crisis on Tartarus was far from over. An Inquisitor from the Ordo Malleus, Mordecai Toth, brought news of a warp storm heading for the planet.By Inquisitoral edict Toth took command of the Imperial Guard. Colonel Brom and his men were tasked with escorting the Imperial citizens to the space ports, and executing a planet wide evacuation. It was difficult work, because although the Ork Warboss was dead, the Orks still were gaining momentum in their attack on the planet. HeresyIt was discovered that the forces of Chaos were at work on the planet. As the conflict on Tartarus heightened Imperial citizens and Imperial Guardsmen began to go mad. They turned on those that were loyal to the Emperor. As the warp storm approached the planet wide hysteria tool hold on the populous.The Imperial citizens that were evacuated off world by Colonel Brom's men were truly fortunate. The crisis on Tartarus left the planet and its cities decimated and tainted.

"What if they don't like me? What if they think I am too Jhalli?
"In that case I am going to have to dump you Khushi?" said Arnav sternly trying to control his laughter.
"Shut up Arnav and help me put on this Sari?" she said in her half dressed state
Arnav got up from the bed and started towards Khushi who was standing in front of the dressing table. A naughty smile crept on his face looking at the utterly confused and disheveled girl in front of him. Grabbing her pallu he slowly started walking towards her.
Khushi who was paying absolutely no attention to Arnav was totally taken y shock when she felt Arnav's hand snake around her waist.
"Arnav!!!" she tried feebly to free herself but found herself crashing hard against his rock chest.
"Don't you want my help?" he said raising his eyebrows.
"Yeah! I need help getting dressed not undressing'"
She was cut off by Arnav who put his hands on her lips and turned Khushi's back towards him such that they were both now facing the mirror. He placed the pallu in his hand over Khushi's head.
"Perfect" he said placing a kiss over her shoulder.
A tear rolled down Khushi's cheek and she turned to face Arnav.
"Will your parents like me Arnav" she pleaded with her eyes
"I promise! My mother always wanted a typical drama serial sari wearing bahu" said Arnav causing Khushi to smile and bury her head into his chest.
With a few hours remaining before her flight landed Khushi's anxiety began to spike. Arnav had gone to Canada a week ahead to break the news to his parents and his family. Today Khushi was finally going to meet his family and see Arnav after an entire week. They had never been away from each other for long.
When Khushi exited the airport Arnav was waiting for her looking as handsome as usual. As soon as his eyes fell on Khushi he ran to take her into a tight embrace. He buried his head into her hair and drank in her floral scent he had missed for a week.
"I missed you so much Khush"
He brought her face to his and gave her a quick peck on the cheek.
"I missed you too" she said as he lowered his head to receive her kiss.
As Arnav pulled into the drive he saw Khushi's expressions changing and he smiled to himself seeing her nervousness.
"Khushi they don't bite"
"Eh!" replied Khushi absentmindedly as Arnav opened the door for her.
However what Khushi saw next absolutely blew her mind.
"Em yes!" replied Arnav seeing Khushi's dazzled expression.
"This giant mansion is your house?"
"Yes Khushi! This is our house!"
"Yep! This is our wedding gift!"
But before Khushi could continue further Arnav grabbed her wrist and started towards the house.
At the door stood the entire family and as soon as they saw Khushi they all jumped at her.
Khushi met the entire family and then finally came Arnav's parents.
Arnav's mom came forward and took Khushi into a tight embrace and she handed her red box.
"This is for you Khushi"
"Khushi opened the box to look at two most beautiful bangles inside. Khushi eyes began to moist but her tears were wiped by her mother in law. Then she met Arnav's dad and as soon as she saw him Khushi figured where Arnav had acquired his looks from. The entire family incredibly loved. After meeting the entire family Arnav took Khushi to her room.
Khushi now finally alone with Arnav hugged him tightly and began weeping like a child. The sudden outburst startled Arnav.
"Khushi?" Arnav said with a sudden panic in his voice.
"I am sorry Arnav" said Khushi wiping her tears and
composing herself.
"You know today for the first time I have realized what a family is, and how it feels to be with family. I was brought up in an orphanage and I have never felt this kind of love. Till now my life was incomplete but today I found my family."
Arnav smiled seeing the joy in Khushi's eyes.
"Is this all even real Arnav?"
"Khushi I promise I will always be right here. This is our family. " he said assuringly
And Khushi lost herself in the pool of his hazel eyes that promised him a new beginning, and a life full of happiness and love. She was finally free of all her anxieties and fear for today she realized as long as she had his love she had everything.

Organizations such as Phantom Fireworks, the National Council on Fireworks Safety, the American Pyrotechnics Association and others publish guidelines containing simple rules for the use of consumer fireworks that, when followed, will make your use of consumer fireworks safe and enjoyable.
First and foremost, you must exercise good judgment and common sense when buying and using the products. Buy your products from reliable, licensed dealers. Beware of dealers who offer you special products from a back room that are not in compliance with state and federal law. You could subject yourself, your family and your audience to substantial danger when using these products.
The fireworks products should be handled and ignited by a designated shooter — a sober adult who is familiar with fireworks safety rules. Never allow children to handle the products or be in close proximity to them.
Make sure you use a clear, open area as your ignition site and use a hard, flat surface. If you must ignite the products from a grassy or graveled area, lay down a piece of plywood to provide a hard, flat surface.
Make sure your audience is a safe distance from your launch site. Phantom Fireworks recommends a minimum distance between your launch site and your audience of 30 feet for fountains and ground-based products.
It is important that you have a ready source of water available in the event of an emergency. A connected hose is best. If that is unavailable, you should use a fire extinguisher or, at a minimum, a bucket of water.
Light only one firework at a time and make sure that you use a long-neck butane lighter, a punk or a similar extended lighting device to keep you a safe distance from the product when you light it. Never allow any part of your body to be over the device.
You should always make sure that you consider farm animals and pets when you are using fireworks. The noise and lights often frighten animals, so it is important that your animals are indoors or otherwise secured to protect them from adverse exposure to the products.
These are some of the basic tips that Phantom Fireworks hopes its friends and customers will follow. The full list of consumer fireworks safety tips can be found at the Fireworks University section of www.fireworks.com. We urge you to familiarize yourselves with all of the fireworks safety tips and follow them to ensure a safe fireworks experience.
Due to a combination of many factors, fireworks are better and safer than ever. Since 1994, fireworks use has increased some 77 percent from 117,000,00 pounds in 1994 to 207,500,000 pounds in 2012. In the same period, injuries have decreased more than 30 percent — from 12,500 in 1994 to 8,700 in 2012.
If we continue to work diligently on the safety message and people continue to follow the safety rules, we can improve the fireworks-related safety record and reduce injuries even further.
Let's continue with the great American tradition envisioned by John Adams of celebrating with fireworks when he wrote in 1776 that the Independence Day holiday "ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, bonfires and illuminations (fireworks) from one end of this continent to another, from this day forward forevermore."
Enjoy the Independence Day holiday with your family and celebrate safely.

Kardinal Offishall x DJ Snake ft. Quinn Marie - I'm a Star (Slow Down)
Artist: Kardinal Offishall
Featuring: DJ Snake
Producer: DJ Snake
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 9 votes )
In his native Canada's hip-hop scene, Kardinal Offishall is a undisputable heavyweight. Be that as it may, he's not the one being referred to in the title of new single I'm a Star. Instead, the T-Dot vet lets the spotlight shine on a certain alluring shawty. Track co-headliner DJ Snake provides a club-ready beat to accompany Offishall as he raves about the woman in question's smooth moves, and Quinn Marie assists on the vocal tip. I'm a Star isn't part of a larger project, but we'll keep you posted on the Black Stone Colleagues/GFMGG signee's plans as further details emerge.

LETTER: Guns are scapegoat for people's actions
Tim Crawley, Henderson
Contrary to what you see and read about violent crime in the USA, statistics show it has dramatically decreased since the 1970s. Images of horrific shootings play a huge part of the perception of our country gone gun-crazy, but in actuality, we're a safer society.
Sure many of the popular TV programs and movies depict murders and all sorts of horrific acts, but the truth is 99.999 percent of us have never seen or will never see a murder. So if violent crimes are decreasing, why does it feel like they're increasing?
Fort Hood shooting: 12 murdered, 31 injured. Aurora cinema shooting: 12 murdered, 58 injured. Sandy Hook shooting: 27 murdered. What do these mass killings have in common, other than all three murderers used a gun? The Fort Hood Army doctor's motives were not driven by mental illness, so being crazy is not the connection. These three mass killings exceeded a threshold that most can't handle.
More than 60 children were shot dead in the streets of Chicago last year, but since they were spread out in the calendar year, we somehow consider it tolerable. Rather than holding people responsible for their actions and seeking justice for those affected, guns have taken the blame of late. If you're not convinced of this premise, just take a look at a killer that exceeds gun deaths.
Statistics show there are 25 alcohol-related deaths every day on our roads. But just as we do with guns, since the deaths are spread out among the states, we dilute the number as we turn a blind eye. If there was a drunken driving crash every day that claimed 37 lives, like the 1988 Carrollton bus crash, do you think lawmakers would ban or limit the consumption of Budweiser, Jack Daniels, Makers Mark, etc.?
The most glaring double standard of how guns and alcohol are viewed happened during a two-week period at the end of last year.
Bob Costas, a respected NBC Sports analyst, told his audience if the distraught NFL player not had a gun, he and his girlfriend would still be alive. A week later, another NFL player, driving while drunk, wrecked his car and killed the passenger.
Did Bob Costas go on national TV the next week and say, "If the player didn't drink alcohol, his friend and teammate would still be alive"? Of course not. Alcohol advertising in the NFL is big money.

What is the idea behind the collections here on TF?
I think they are really outdated. For example this one
It's the third collection and claims to have bargain basement items. I guess it has been updated last decade or so but those items get much more attention than items from the original collection
In general the collections are all messed up. If I sort for title it's not in alphabetic order.
What is the sense of sorting collections by title and have over 30.000 to look through?
Many collections end up in a 404 – not found.
When I search for my public collection it is shown on the second page while others with no items and no ratings are on the first page. Why?

Gilbert, David
Sumatra is one of the world's richest homes of cultural and ecological diversity. Nomadic hunter-gatherers, Malay farmers and fisherman, along with a mix of migrants from all over the world, now live and work on the island, more than 65 percent of whom live in rural areas. Despite the social and environmental diversity of the island, many rural Sumatrans live below the national poverty line. My research proposes to study the many ways rural Sumatran earn their livelihood, from collecting Non-Timber Forest products in the rainforests, using traditional forms of swidden agriculture, and family farmers producing many different agricultural products for sale. The purpose of the research is to use a broad comparative approach to identify rural livelihood activites capable of aleiviating poverty.
I am developing a mix of ethnographic and quantitative skills sets to address these multi-fasceted questions. I have lived in the tropical forests of the Amazon and Indonesia, and have worked on ecological surveys, conservation initiatives, and documentary film projects. I have spent time living with remote hunter gatherers and muslim agriculturalists, studying the impacts of current hunting practices and land rights conflicts. In support of this work, I have been selected as a National Geographic Young Explorer, Henry Luce Scholar, Fulbright Scholar, and a SEVEN Fund for Global Poverty Alleviation Co-Grantee. I graduated Cum Laude from Claremont McKenna College in 2005 with a BA in Biology.

These dog houses are the best. In the winter, you can see the steam coming out of them. They are very warm inside. The entrances are kind of off center so it blocks a lot of the wind. The shape is also conducive to keeping in the warmth.
Pros: Warm in the winter
Cons: Difficult to take apart for cleaning

Area under Kalady bridge where accident took place notorious for illegal mining
Rivers across the State have become killing fields thanks to indiscriminate and unscientific sand mining over the years that have created deep pits in river beds, D. Padmalal, head, Environmental Sciences Division, National Centre for Earth Science Studies, has said.
The drowning of four Malayattoor pilgrims in the Periyar at Kalady on Friday is being regarded as fallout of this persistent evil.
The area under the Sree Sankara Bridge at Kalady where the accident took place is notorious for illegal sand mining.
The mid and low land areas of rivers, which were originally sand storage zones, have turned into death traps. The mud-filled pits, about nine to ten metres deep, had resulted from selective extraction of construction grade sand using pole and net scooping, said Mr. Padmalal, who keeps a close watch over the changing channel bed configuration of Kerala's rivers.
The common perception that the danger posed by such pits can be curbed by restricting access to them holds no basis.Changing topography
"The fact is that these pits keep migrating along the profile of the rivers, especially during monsoon as the high flow regime leads to bed degradation downstream and headward erosion (head cutting) upstream levelling layers of sand. This brings about unpredictable changes in the sub surface water topography," Mr. Padmalal said.
In short, people cannot be warned of a particular area of the river because of the ever changing underwater topography.
To make matters worse, these pits would often be filled significantly with silt and clay left after selective extraction of sand using porous scoopers by the miners. Hence, a person who steps into the pit would find it near impossible to retrieve the feet.
Environmentalist S. Sitaraman said indiscriminate sand mining from the foot of the pillars of Kalady bridge had caused it to sink by four to five metres.
Mr. Sitaraman said while the court had banned mining within one kilometre radius of structures, the State government had further diluted it to 500 metres in its legislation. But even the watered down restriction is not being honoured. The direction that illegally mined sand confiscated should be deposited back in the river bed is also not being complied with. He said illegal sand mining had created 750-800 pits on the river bed of Periyar in the stretch between Aluva and Malayattoor.
When contacted Public Works Department (roads division) sources said the department hadn't received any complaints on safety concerns about the bridge and had, therefore, not conducted any inspection yet.
Sunil Menon, a Kalady-based environmental activist, said illegal sand mining was all too common in Kalady and Kanjoor areas.
Mr. Menon said the Motor Vehicles Department (MVD) could play a more proactive role especially during the night. Old run-down vehicles were being used for such operations, which if confiscated by the police, would not cause much of a loss to the parties concerned, he said.
MVD officials denied allegations that dilapidated vehicles were used for transportation of illegally mined sand, stating that it was at best a rarity.
An official said the department's jurisdiction was restricted when it comes to the transportation of sand.
"We predominantly look at whether the vehicle intercepted is overloaded or not since it damages the road and poses danger to the public as they cannot be brought to a halt like other vehicles. In such cases, we slap a fine while vehicles found to be transporting sand without proper documents are handed over to the police," an official said.Special squads
The revenue department has put in place special squads at the taluk level to keep illegal sand mining in check. However, department sources admitted to shortcomings in the existing mechanism while calling for improvements to keep criminals involved on a tight leash.

Best Of The Best? Is MTV's 'Hottest MCs' List On Point?- By Bossip Staff Categories: Congratulations, For Discussion, Hate It or Love It?!?!
#5: Rick Ross
Last Year: #5
Not only did his fourth LP, Teflon Don, debut at #2 on the Billboard albums chart in July with 176,300 sold its first week, but Ross had the undeniable street anthem "B.M.F. (Blowin' Money Fast)," which sold more than 100,000 copies despite being available on the free Albert Anastasia EP. What's more, he was still fighting off criticism from being outed as a corrections officer and beefing with 50 Cent. But good music can't be stopped, and Ross supplied plenty of it this year, so the MTV News Hip-Hop Brain Trust voted him 2010's #5 Hottest MC in the Game, the same ranking he received last year.

After repeated demands from the firemen of the Mumbai fire brigade, the BMC has finally decided to carry out a second structural audit of residential buildings, most of which are located within its premises.
A senior fire officer confirmed that the Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI), has already started the audit of residential buildings of fire stations and the reports are expected in the next 10 days. "For those residential buildings in the suburbs, such as the Marol fire station, the audit will start after a special permission from the civic administration," the officer said.
According to Sharad Kuveskar, working president of the Mumbai Firefighters Services Union, it is a welcome move. "After the building collapses, the BMC didn't want to take any risk, so based on an initial structural audit, they were planning to shift us to Mahul. Many of them have already been shifted, which is inconvenient for us because of the distance," said Kuveskar. For instance, half of the residents from Byculla fire station have been moved to Mahul.
Kuveskar added that the BMC has not yet taken any action on the buildings, which the firemen have already vacated, such as the Mandvi fire station.
According to a recent circular issued by the civic body, based on a meeting with the senior officials of the fire brigade department on May 19, of the 195 firemen families, senior firemen and their families will be shifted to the 46 staff quarters, 26 of which are located in Borivli, 17 in Mankhurd, 1 in Malad and 2 in Chembur.
The union had sent a letter to the department, opposing this decision, claiming they were not consulted before this decision. However, they are happy that a second opinion is being sought on this.
The fire officer said the decision is not a result of any pressure from the union. "Fire services are emergency services. In case of any emergency, it will be difficult for the firemen to reach the spot from Mahul.
Therefore, the administration has decided a second opinion on this, to check if the period can be extended.
The civic body has already started evacuating people from 3,505 buildings, which belongs to its estate department. According to the data provided by a senior civic official of the estate department, the structural audit of 709 BMC-owned buildings has already been completed, of which the audit reports of 440 buildings are ready.
Currently, the civic body is already busy evacuating residents from 125 of its buildings and shifting them to Mahul. Out of those 125 buildings, demolition has been ordered for 101 buildings, of which 78 are in the city, 17 are in the eastern suburbs and six are in the western suburbs. The data reveals that 140 such buildings need major repairs, to the tune of Rs25 lakh, while 175 of them can do away with minor repairs. Seven of those audited, do no need any repair.
"We have prioritised the mutiple-floor buildings, following which we will carry out audits of the 1,450 buildings, which are ground-floor structures. There is a severe staff crunch, so the process is taking time," a civic official said.
Monsoon app for Mumbaikars
The Brihanmumbai municipal corporation has a piece of good news for Mumbaikars this monsoon, and to avail that, they just need a smartphone. The civic body has developed an application called 'Mumbai Monsoon'. The app can be downloaded from June 1, and it will help people to know the temperature, humidity, wind speed and pressure and tidal range from any given location. Apart from that, the app will provide the data of the quantity of rainfall for a particular amount of time, for 54 spots. It will also indicate traffic diversions during waterlogging.

Manchester United No2 Mike Phelan says there'll be no problem picking up the players for their FA Cup tie with Chelsea.
United morale was rock bottom yesterday after their Champions League elimination.
But as Phelan pointed out, United have every incentive in chasing what would be Sir Alex Ferguson's fourth League and Cup Double to add to those of 1994, 1996 and 1999 — since when they have only won the FA Cup once, by beating Millwall nine years ago.
"We're in the FA Cup still, we've got a great opportunity in the League and I'm sure that will drive the players forward in order to achieve something," Phelan said.

Plastic Surgery Doc from Vancouver Area Completes Aid Mission
Dr. Mathew Mosher, specializing in plastic surgery in the Vancouver area, recently returned from his volunteer mission to rural Guatemala, where he and 20 volunteers completed 75 procedures on impoverished locals.
Langley, BC (PRWEB) August 05, 2011
Dr. Mathew Mosher of YES MedSpa and Cosmetic Surgery Centre (http://www.drmosher.com/), a plastic surgery clinic near Vancouver, recently returned from a volunteer medical mission to rural Guatemala with volunteer organization Project HANDS. Dr. Mosher says he is eager to share his experiences with women and men who frequent his practice, and teach others about the wonderful work volunteers from Project HANDS do in Central America.
"My recent volunteer mission was an enlightening experience, and I have really enjoyed sharing some the stories from this trip with the men and women who visit our plastic surgery practice," notes Dr. Mosher. Dr. Mosher traveled with 20 volunteers from Project HANDS, (Helping And Nurturing Developing Societies) to rural Guatemala to offer reconstructive surgery to people of varying ages. The mission continues a 5 year tradition in which a locally founded charitable organization coordinates Canadian surgical teams' travel to Guatemala to help impoverished residents who don't have the financial ability or physical access to the surgical care that they need.
Dr. Mosher, whose typical day consists of mainly cosmetic surgeries such as breast augmentation near Vancouver, says that his team was extremely successful in helping a variety of people. In total, the volunteer group completed 75 procedures over 10 days. The majority of people they helped were children, many of whom had received severe burns that had been left untreated and resulted in disfiguring scars. Children in Guatemala are a high risk for these injuries due to their primitive homes where open fires are used for cooking.
"During my time in Guatemala, I saw a number of people ranging in age and conditions, but some of the most profound experiences came from the children we helped," says Dr. Mosher. "Many of these children traveled for hours, often with their siblings to visit our surgery clinic. Their families often spoke one of the Mayan dialects that made communication a real challenge. Providing this care required all the skills and resources of our team working together. I am grateful for having had this experience and to all the people who made this mission possible."
YES Medspa and Cosmetic Surgery Centre specializes in a variety of surgical and nonsurgical cosmetic procedures, and Dr. Mosher says his experience in Guatemala has brought renewed dedication to his cosmetic practice. While there are significant differences between underprivileged burn victims and women seeking breast implants in Vancouver, Dr. Mosher finds a common thread. "Everyone wants to feel good about themselves, and as a plastic surgeon, I can help. My job is to reach out to my patients, to listen to each of them, and work with them to achieve the appearance that allows them to feel comfortable, confident and beautiful."
Dr. Mathew Mosher (http://www.drmosher.com), founder and director of Your Esthetic Solutions Medspa and Cosmetic Surgery Centre, is a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. His training includes a prestigious fellowship in Aesthetic Surgery under internationally acclaimed surgeon Dr. B.F. Connell in Southern California, and additional training in Toronto, Dallas, and Honolulu. At his Vancouver cosmetic surgery centre, Dr. Mosher specializes in advanced techniques in cosmetic surgery, as well as state-of-the-art nonsurgical options. Due to the diversity of treatments offered at his practice, patients have the freedom to choose the procedure or procedures that work best for their needs and lifestyle.

Void player puts a whole new spin on playing your old LPs
Audio output is produced by the little red ball spinning around on top of the LP
Carefully place the sphere on top of the LP and press the button - then pray
The cradle which supports the record
The control unit, the cradle and the red sphere - now all we need is an LP to sacrifice...
The technical details
Magnets and the will of God are the only thing keeping that precious vinyl afloat
Article Summary
Korean designer Rhea Jeong says she's been astounded by the amount of interest in her conceptual Void LP record player. One look at the design and you can see why it's made so much noise without even uttering a sound. Close your eyes and imagine a little red globe spinning around on top of a vinyl record emitting sound from speakers inside it. The record itself is suspended in mid-air above a simple black base unit - no strings attached, no wires holding it up and definitely no safety net. The imagery is quite simply jaw-dropping. But can such a thing really work?

How My Adult ADHD Got Me in the White House
My AmeriCorps experience showed me that helping others -- and being myself -- is a path to growth, satisfaction, and greater career opportunities.
On Friday, August 17, I was invited to the White House along with more than 150 AmeriCorps Alumni leaders from 25 states. We represented AmeriCorps Alums during a day-long briefing highlighting national service as a pathway to opportunity and career advancement. If you're wondering what AmeriCorps is and why I participated, the reason is really quite simple: I love to help others in need. During my year...

How NOT to Get Your ADHD Child Ready for School
Here are a few tips and tricks to get you started as you begin planning your strategy for a new school year.
I'd like to think that I know a thing or two about elementary school. I spent most of my younger years risin' and shinin' to my mom pulling on my toes, pouring freezing water on my face and creating a pseudo-club experience made possible by the quick on/off flickering of my bedroom light. As a parent, you know about all of the challenges that your ADHD...

What channel does the Olympic basketball will be On? Can someone please tell me!!!!!!!
True Love
Actually anthony davis has a wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better mid-range jumper neither really has a post game and defense= not letting the opposing player score Blocking shots= not letting the opposing player score and yeah I know he was DPOY but I don't think he'll get it again
Is tyson chandler a better passer no a better shooter no more athletic stronger yeah more experience yeah better player we'll find out soon
I don't think he'll just come in the league destroying people but I believe he will be very good is that too much to expect I mean their have been rookies to come in the league and be really good before right ?
That's because points win awards and guards score points. I don't think it's incredibly homerish to believe Davis can be very good as a rookie. He didn't play fantastic today, but I think he'll be a really good defensive player and a rich man's garbage man on offense immediately. This is not to say he'll be a perfect defensive player, but I son't think there will be many better shot-contesters in the eague and guys might be able to get position on him in the post, but his length will still bother shots. He might be better than that depending on his offensive skills, which he really hasn't reall gotten a chance to display on this star-laden team. Based on entire body of work, I expect him to be good as a rookie.
I think we can all agree Anthony Davis is AT LEAST on the level of Bill Russel by now. I mean approximately 30-40 minutes of international play, only 8 of which being played in a game of any significance, has given this meritorious young man every clear indication he is better than an established 'should-be' 2 time defensive player of the year... The supreme mettle of Anthony Davis has been SO awe-inspiring I am dumb-founded by the gall of coach K, the absolute ineptitude at the highest echelon of sporting is mind-boggling.
I mean, I know SOMEONE has to see what I see.. right guys? Right?
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
DPOY aint everything Ben wallace won it a few times but im not taking him over Dirk....Award aint everthing Eli got two rings I aint takin him over drew.If anthony davis isn't better he's more talented
New Orleans Hornets' Anthony Davis, unlike Christian Laettner at 1992 Olympics, will get a chance to shine at the 2012 Games
http://www.nola.com/hornets/index.ss...hony_da_1.htmlFor the first time in two decades, since the 1992 transformation of U.S. Olympic basketball by the collection of NBA superstars dubbed "The Dream Team," there will be one player on the Team USA roster with no professional experience. For 19-year-old Hornets rookie Anthony Davis, his journey with the current group of men's Olympians should be far different than the one experienced by the last collegian who was part of the '92 gold-medal winning team in Barcelona, Christian Laettner.
Laettner, who had played for four years at Duke, was part of the 1992 USA roster that included Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, David Robinson and other legends of the game.
Though Laettner played in each game — the Americans won every game it played by an average of more than 43 points at the Games — Laettner was more a practice-session whipping boy. Davis, 6 feet 10, 230 pounds, is expected to shoulder a bit more in-game responsibility.
Author and longtime Sports Illustrated writer Jack McCallum, whose book chronicling the original Dream Team was just published, believes Davis' role on the current U.S. squad will be far greater and more competitive than Laettner.
"Without question," said McCallum, who's covering the London Games for NBC Sports' Olympic website. "I think they really need Anthony Davis. From what I've seen (of Davis), unlike Laettner, I think they needed him. I actually thought he'd make the team without the injury to (Blake) Griffin. I thought he'd be one of the 12 because of his length and athleticism.
"I think more and more, they need those types of guys. Christian, through no fault of his own, he was scrimmage fodder. That's what he was. Jordan made the comment, kind of cruelly in typical Jordan fashion: 'Yeah, we went at Christian every time.'
Being around all of these stars in the nba is really going to excel Davis as a player. I think this aspect of this whole experience for AD isnt being talked about as much as it should be. I was iffy on if I wanted AD to make the team bc of the injury factor, but I am extremely happy he is there now. This whole experience is unparalleled.
didn't watch the game what was this for?
looking for team to bandwagon, pls help

When Falguni and Shane Peacock decided to go ahead with their participation in the London Fashion Week (LFW), they didn't expect a great response.
"We showed there as we didn't want to break the continuity; we had, after all, shown there last season," explains Falguni on the phone from London. So after their show on February 22, while the media responses were positive enough, the buyers too have come calling. "The orders may be less than the last time around, but more than we anticipated," enthuses Shane.
What's even more interesting is that the duo got to meet the British PM Gordon Brown's wife, Sarah Brown, in person. "She visited our stall at the British Fashion Council (BFC) exhibition and it was a real pleasure meeting her. She is a very stylish person and carries herself with great élan. It was an official visit," notes Falguni, adding that Mrs Brown done her homework and seemed to know quite a lot about their label.
"We showed her around and explained our design philosophy to her. She seemed most interested. In fact, she even congratulated us for Slumdog Millionaire's Oscar sweep," she says, adding that Mrs Brown particularly loved the accessories on display at the stall. And if that's not enough, there was British supermodel Erin O'Connor (also the face of the BFC) who also visited them.
The peacocks' London line
Falguni and Shane produced a collection of dresses and tailored pieces dramatically rich in textures, colours and shapes. The assymetric evening dresses have an almost operatic feel with plunging necklines, pleats and vents, enveloping and swirling around the body.
There is also an 80s feel to knee length dresses, the skirt super-tight while the top zippered. Many of the pieces are hand worked, richly embroidered and appliquéd with crystals, feathers, mesh and even steel wool. Prints are abstract and pixilated, even psychedelic.

On August 19th, the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey will vote on a proposal to increase tolls on some the busiest bridges and tunnels in the New York area. If approved, drivers with E-Z pass will be facing a fifty percent increase in round-trip tolls to use the George Washington Bridge, the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels, and the bridges connecting Staten Island and New Jersey. Families which are struggling to get by should not have to pay substantially more just to get to work or visit a loved one.
Businesses that are hanging on by a thread will have to pay nearly 100 percent more in round-trip truck tolls. These costs ultimately get passed down to us in the form of higher prices, which will hinder economic development, prevent job creation, and force us to pay more once again. In these tough economic times, that's the last thing we need.
Join the fight and sign my petition below which calls for the Port Authority Board of Commissioners and Governor Cuomo to reject this proposed plan.
To sign my petition against the Port Authority toll hikes, please enter your information into the form below.

A. Alfred Taubman takes REIT plunge.
The public offering for Taubman Centers Inc. will raise between $335 million and $388 million depending on its share price which will be between $12.50 and $14.50 per share. The 26.8 million shares, 4 million of which will be marketed overseas, are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange in the next few months after approval is received from the Securities and Exchange Commission. Sources said the SEC may request more information and delay the offering. An additional 13.288 million shares of the REIT will be owned by pension funds, which will also have limited partnership interests in the Taubman Realty Group.
Bernard Winograd, executive vice president and chief financial officer of The Taubman Company, said there were strategic benefits allowed by the REIT structure.
"Having access to public sources of capital, and a publicly traded instrument whose value is readily determinable and is relatively liquid, will make it possible to raise both equity and debt in today's market."
Those pension funds -- two General Motors funds and the AT&T Master Pension Trust -- will retain a 52 percent stake in the Realty Group.
The complicated restructuring involved creating Taubman Centers -- the REIT -- which will own a 32.5 percent interest in and act as managing general partner of The Taubman Realty Group Limited Partnership (TRG). The GM trust will own 41.5 percent of TRG directly and the Taubman Group will own 26 percent. The GM and AT&T pension trusts will also own additional 13.288 million shares of Taubman Centers directly, resulting in 40,333,930 shares outstanding after the offering.
The REIT will be owned as follows: GM will own 19.8 percent, AT&T will own 13.1 percent, the public will own 66.5 percent, while .6 percent will be owned by current partners of the Realty Group including Taubman. Under REIT organization, no five individuals or fewer can own 50 percent or more of the REIT.
REIT analyst, Michael Giliberto of Salomon Brothers, after a brief look, deemed the prospectus and the deal "very complex because there is not a whole lot of property specific information and the transaction will require significant analysis."
Mark O. Decker, president of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, said, "We're really excited to see this REIT come into the market. It's a very good development for the industry because of the visibility of Mr. Taubman and his reputation and a good signal to institutional investors that a REIT can be an alternative investment. They need to see that in order to bring dollars into our side of the industry."
"There are certainly other well known developers looking at the REIT and this is a good signal to them to take the step," Decker added. "This helps existing REITS to raise capital and will continue to send a positive signal to other investors that not all real estate investments are bad."
Winograd said the Taubman Group became interested in forming a REIT as a result of discussions with Morgan Stanley, in 1991 with the lead underwriters
"The idea evolved from there," he said.

Article Summary
The main problems with today's battery technology is that, despite gradual advancements in recent years, cells are still too big, heavy and expensive, making them impractical for the many applications in which weight or price play an essential role. Researchers at the Fraunhofer research facility in Germany, however, have taken a radically different approach towards the building process and have developed an incredibly light, thin and inexpensive battery that could - if such a thing is possible - end up bringing even more electronics into our everyday life.
