Between film shoots, TV shows, red carpet appearances, and her duty as a wife and mother, actress Madhuri Dixit believes she is managing her personal and professional life quite well. She motivates others to be "all in one" too.
She says this balancing act is a key trait of "modern Indian women".
"Dancer, actor, mother, wife all these roles, I have lived in one life. All in one is the mantra of the modern Indian women," the 46-year-old tweeted.
Madhuri, who is known as the dancing queen of silver screen, is credited for her moves in songs like "Humko aaj kal hai", "Dhak dhak", "Ek do teen", "Que sera sera", "Kaahe chhed mohe" and "Aaja nachle".
She took a break from showbiz when she married US-based surgeon Sriram Nene and shifted to Denver from Mumbai to start a family. Now she is back in tinsel town and judges celebrity participants on dance reality show "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6".
She is also ready for her new innings in Bollywood with two films - Anubhav Sinha's "Gulaab Gang" and Vishal Bharadwaj's "Dedh Ishqiya". On the big screen, she was last seen dancing to "Ghagra" alongside Ranbir Kapoor in "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani".

6.25 Carat Garnet and .31 ct. t.w. Diamond Bracelet in 14kt Yellow Gold. 7.5"
Item#: 797752
The rich burgundy tones of a 6.25 carat pear-shaped garnet are wrapped in .31 ct. t.w. diamonds on a fine cable chain bracelet. Includes a 1/2" extender. Springring clasp, 14kt yellow gold bracelet.
Product Details (for 6.25 Carat Garnet and .31 ct. t.w. Diamond Bracelet in 14kt Yellow Gold. 7.5")
5/8 inch
14kt close 14KT: Karat (abbreviated kt or K) is a unit that indicates the purity of gold in the metal. 14kt is 58.33% gold. In the United States, 14K yellow gold is most favored and used in jewelry. Yellow Gold close YELLOW GOLD: Gold is a precious metal with a natural yellow color. It is quite soft and often alloyed with other metals to increase its strength. The purity of the metal is indicated by a unit called a "karat," with 24kt having the highest percentage of natural gold.
Polished close POLISHED: A buffed-out finish used to produce a mirror-like shine.
Cable close CABLE: One of the most popular and classic of chain styles, created from interlocking oval links unvarying in size.
Chain Size:
1.5 mm
Springring close SPRINGRING CLASP: Invented in the early 1900s this diminutive device is highly effective. It's a hollow circular metal fastener with a spring opening. This keeps the clasp closed.
Gemstone 1:
Diamond close Diamond: The hardest and most brilliant of all gemstones, a diamond can make the heart race with its pure and fiery spark. An ancient symbol of love, a diamond is the preferred gemstone for tokens of affection, such as rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets. Diamond is the birthstone for April. (Quantity: 31, Shape & Cutting Style: Round Single-Cut close SINGLE-CUT: A gemstone cutting technique that dates back to the 1300s. Still used today, the single-cut usually features 18 facets that go in one direction without crossing each other. , Color Grade: I, Clarity: I2-I3, Weight: 0.31 ct. t.w.)
Gemstone 2:
Garnet close GARNET: the birthstone of January. One glance at the deep red seeds nestled inside of a pomegranate explains why the word "garnet" comes from the Latin word "granatus," meaning "grain" or "seed." This name was given to the garnet because of its close resemblance to the succulent seed. (Color: Burgundy, Quantity: 1, Shape & Cutting Style: Pear close PEAR: Similar to the outline of a pear fruit, this is a round shape that comes to a point on one side. Fancy, Weight: 6.25 carats, Size: 16X12 mm)

Novelist Salman Rushdie on Sunday joined the growing chorus of criticism of Amnesty International for working with a suspected Islamist group, Cageprisoners, formed by a former Guantanamo Bay prisoner Moazzam Begg.
He accused Amnesty of "moral bankruptcy'' saying it had done "incalculable damage'' to its reputation.
His remarks follow the row over the suspension of Gita Sahgal, head of Amnesty's gender unit, for raising her concerns on the issue in public. Mr. Rushdie, who was strongly backed by Amnesty when he faced death threats following the Iranian fatwa over his controversial book The Satanic Verses, was reported by The Sunday Times as saying Amnesty had failed to distinguish right from the wrong in supporting Cageprisoners.
"It looks very much as if Amnesty's leadership is suffering from a kind of moral bankruptcy and has lost the capacity to distinguish right from the wrong,'' he said.
Amnesty's U.K. director Kate Allen said it took Mr. Rushdie's criticism "seriously'' but would continue to campaign for "universal respect'' for human rights.
Cageprisoners, which campaigns for the rights of Guantanamo Bay prisoners, has been accused of having links with pro-jihadi elements.
Keywords: Amnesty International, Islamists, Guantanamo Bay

There are shots one can really only hit with the IMF 200G. I remember something about the 200G's injection moulding process giving its hoop tremendous ability to not distort (especially on off center hits). It may flex but it has a strange stability that allows it to be perhaps the most ridiculous vollying/touch/graphite racket ever made.
It had immense power on tap for everything but serves and topspin and reacts well to low tension poly. I have Black Magic on mine in the 40's and its accuracy is legendary. I literally aim for lines with it. Stopped using it because it held my second serves back.
Also, the IMF process created larger string holes than usual... in fact Prince had to wait for its patents to expire to do their moulded vs drilled hole rackets
Headsize is like 83.9 inches and the whole thing feels like a sweetspot.
Thanks for sharing your experience with it. 25 bucks sounds a sweet deal. I have to try get one in better condition. Definitely a classic worth to own. These sticks are not for match play now these days, can't use them in serious competitive singles matches, but lots of fun and vintage on casual hittings/practises/doubles.

Pro Baseball Report: Calallen's Verrett moved up to High-A ball
Cliff Pennington on 15-day disabled list
CORPUS CHRISTI - Calallen's Logan Verrett has one of the most impressive pitching stat lines for Savannah, the New York Mets' Single A affiliate in the South Atlantic League — 67 strikeouts against nine walks, or more than seven strikeouts for every walk issued.
Granted, Verrett is a few levels below the majors and his 64.2 innings are well below major-league starters at this stage of the season but, by point of comparison, the Texas Rangers' Colby Lewis was leading the American League with a 6.643 strikeouts-to-walks ratio this season, and Verrett's 7.44 ratio would rank as the 18th best all-time for a single major-league season.
Now, Verrett will try to take that to the next level after being promoted Friday to St. Lucie, the Mets' High A affiliate in the Florida State League.
Verrett, who was placed on the disabled list in mid-April for seven weeks with a shoulder strain, has not walked more than two batters in any of his 11 starts this season and has not issued a free pass in five contests. He also has five games with at least seven strikeouts.
For good measure, opponents are batting .228 this season against the 6-foot-2 right-hander.
Carroll-ex Cliff Pennington was placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Oakland A's effective July 20. Pennington, who has been mired in a terrible slump this season, was suffering from tendinitis of the left elbow. Pennington was placed in a platoon at shortstop recently and, after the opening two games of this season, has only twice lifted his average above .231. During four different stretches this season, his average has sunk below the .200 barrier. … Former Calallen star Wyatt Mathisen, named a Class 4A all-state pitcher Thursday for his efforts this past high school season, likely will miss up to two weeks after fracturing a toe Wednesday. Mathisen, being converted to catcher while playing for the Pittsburgh Pirates' Rookie Gulf Coast League team, took a foul bunt off his left big toe while behind the plate. Mathisen was batting .308 and had eight steals in 13 attempts as a pro. … Also dealing with injuries is former Texas A&M-Corpus Christi standout pitcher Todd Simko, who was off to a solid start with the Washington Nationals' Single A club in Hagerstown. Simko, 0-1 with a 2.37 ERA and a save, last pitched on May 17 and was placed on the disabled list five days later. Simko's problem is related to his back, which has been an issue for the 6-foot-5 left-hander after he was in a car accident six years ago. Surgery may be required, and it is likely that Simko is done for the season. … Texas A&M-Kingsville's Cameron Dullnig didn't spend a long time off the Fort Worth Cats' roster. The pitcher was signed by the independent North American League team two weeks ago, but was off the roster a week later. Dullnig spent less than a week away when the Cats recalled him earlier this week.

In an election that will prove to be one of the most memorable India has seen, the current trends seem to be showing, the BJP is not only retaining seats but it has also managed to snag new ones.
In an election that is reminiscent of the 1998 and 1999 elections where the BJP did initially seem to have it in the bag with 248 seats and still suffered an upset defeat at the hands of the Congress. However the 2014 elections do not seem to be going along in the same way as leads speculate the BJP being ahead of the Congress tentatively at 209 to 70.
Predictably BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's home turf seems set for a clean sweep, even the Gandhis' bastion of Amethi is stuck in a push and pull between Rahul Gandhi who one would expect to win, and the BJP's Smriti Irani.
The congress does seem to be trailing and yet these are extremely early leads and the numbers might just surprisingly favor the Congress like they did in 2009.
Narendra Modi also seems to be ahead in Varanasi and Vadodara whereas Sonia Gandhi leads in Rae Bareli. Although senior Congress leader Ajay Rai has stated that Varanasi will inevitably reject outsider Narendra Modi. UP constituency Ghaziabad is currently seeing better numbers for Hema Malini and Uma Bharti.
With Kerala being the only state where the Congress is leading, the victory of the BJP seems to in view as the nation awaits to see if Narendra Modi will emerge victorious.

Ever notice that when you exit the 4/5/6 subway at 59th, both a Subway sandwich shop and the neon-lit sign of the Subway Inn are directly in your line of vision? That kinda thing weirds me out sometimes. Also creepy: the old manatoayoung woman ratio is usually something like 20/0 at this midtown dive. You've got the veterans, the wife beaterawearing guy who looks like (and is happy to fess up that) he's been here since noon, as well as the random dude with an unfinished manuscript, or burnt-out broker seeking solitude. As for ambiance, check out the peeling linoleum.

In his last attempt to regain his lost position, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president-in-abeyance N Srinivasan on Tuesday moved the Supreme Court seeking its permission to carry on with his duties till September, when his tenure would end officially.
Srinivasan, in his two affidavits filed before the apex court, stated that he was targeted by several people around and blamed the senior lawyer who appeared on behalf of Cricket Association of Bihar (CAB) as unfair and unsubstantiated.
In his effort to prove his innocence, Srinivasan has also questioned the report of Justice Mukul Mudgal probe committee, which was constituted by the apex court itself. "The report of the Probe Committee, in two parts, was submitted to this Hon'ble Court on 10.02.2014. My interaction with the Committee is recorded in the report. The report concluded that my statement that he was a 'Mere Cricket Enthusiast' was incorrect and Mr. Gurunath Meiyappan was the 'public face' of the IPL Team Chennai Super Kings."
Interestingly, this is the first time that Srinivasan has admitted his son-in-law as CSK's public face.
In the two separate affidavits filed on Tuesday, Srinivasan has also denied allegation of senior advocate Harish Salve, appearing for CAB, that he was guilty of corruption and cover up and also expressed his ignorance that the sealed envelope submitted by the three-member Mudgal Committee contains any audio tapes having conversation between Vindoo Dara Singh and Meiyappan, both accused of betting during IPL VI.
There were two more affidavits filed separately on Tuesday, first by the terminated IPL franchisee Deccan Chargers and secondly by Rajasthan Royals' owner Raj Kundra denying his role in the IPL spot-fixing case.
The case will come up for hearing on Wednesday at 10.30 am when the plea of BCCI seeking transcripts of audio tapes containing statements of Srinivasan and Indian captain MS Dhoni, recorded by the Mudgal Committee which probed allegations of IPL betting and spot fixing, will also be taken up.
In his submission, Srinivasan has claimed that "he never interfered with disciplinary proceedings or criminal investigations against his Meiyappan, one of the accused in spot-fixing".
He further countered the charges of suspended IPS officer G Sampath Kumar, who initially probed the case, of influencing the investigation. "In these circumstances, I would respectfully submit that there is absolutely no reason why I should not be permitted to resume my office as elected President of BCCI unless and until this court conclusively finds material suggesting that I had interfered with investigations by CB-CID and/or compromised the tenure of Sampath Kumar in service."
Requesting the court to reconsider its March 28 order in so far as it relates to his position in BCCI, Srinivasan said: "I wish to resume my elected office. My tenure ends with September 2014 and I should be allowed to complete my tenure."
On the apex court order that any person associated with India Cements should be kept out of the affairs of BCCI, Srinivasan said in the past also various office bearers of the Board included people working in their company and offices for the affairs of the cricket.
Srinivasan has also named Sunil Gavaskar, who has been asked by the Court to look after BCCI's affairs till the end of the IPL season VII, that it was on his request that his company sponsored the India-Australia Test in 2001.
"At the request of Mr. Sunil Gavaskar, the India Cements Ltd sponsored the replay of the 1987 Tied Test between India and Australia when the Australian team toured India and played a Test match in Chennai in 2001, for which a sum of Rs 25 Lakh was paid to Professional Management Group, managed by Mr. Sunil Gavaskar. Further, I have personally cleared several requests from retired cricketers for sponsorship support during benefit games."

Prime Number Gaps Multiples of Six
From ProofWiki
If you list the gaps between consecutive primes > 5 ( 2, 4, 2, 4, 2, 4, 6, 2, 6, 4, 2, 4, .....) you will notice that consecutive gaps that are equal are of the form $6x$. This is always the case.
Suppose there were two consecutive gaps between 3 consecutive prime numbers that were equal, but not divisible by $6$.
Then the difference is $2k$ where $k$ is not divisible by $3$, and so the (supposed) prime numbers will be $p, p+2k, p+4k$.
But then $p+4k$ is congruent modulo 3 to $p+k$.
That makes the three numbers congruent to $p, p+k, p+2k$.
One of those is divisible by $3$ and so can not be prime.
So two consecutive gaps must be divisible by $3$ and therefore (as they have to be even) by $6$.

The Man Without Fear!
Shivah Stars
Each week, we select the most interesting Jewish obituary. With our double-fisted superhero coverage today, it seems timely to note the obituary of Gene Colan, the famed comic-book artist who passed away last month at 84. Known as "Gene the Dean" to comics fans, his career lasted seven decades; not even glaucoma could halt it. Colan's use of the figure in comic books—his renderings of anatomy and noir-ish photo-realistic style—helped move the art of this medium from hack-infiltrated novelty to something that could take itself seriously (while wearing tights). Looking at his renderings of characters including Daredevil, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Falcon (the first black hero to have his own series), and his iconic Dracula, it's clear to see his influence on Frank Miller, Todd MacFarlane, and Alex Ross—the superhero artists who brought these pulp heroes to the films now making billions of dollars every summer.
Born in 1926 in New York City, Colan went to the venerable Art Students League, and served with the Air Force in the Philippines during World War II before starting his multi-decade career. He was an artist's artist, to the point where publishers started running his comics in their pencil-sketch form. "Authenticity, for me, was important, because it made the reader feel 'This is real,'" Colan said in a recent interview "'This is not just a comic book,'" .

"Follow Your Money." DTCC clears most payments. $2 quadrillion each year.Submitted by Mark Twain on Tue, 01/29/2013 - 21:52
Where does your money go?z DTCC knows. They settle bank to bank transactions. $2 quadrillion per annum (this page shows $1.66 quadrillion; varies by & by).
"$4 Billion per day of DTCC repo transactions mentioned in first few seconds. This is but a peek of what flows through this gargantuan cash machine. Newsreel form DTCC about themselves.
DTCC's depository provides custody and asset servicing for more than 3.6 million securities issues from the United States and 121 other countries and territories, valued at US $36.5 trillion. In 2010, DTCC settled nearly US $1.66 quadrillion in securities transactions.
Most records in the US transmitted bank to bank go through a clearing house. The Monopoly Boyz clearing house is Depository Trust Credit Clearing: http://www.DTCC.com By far, more elephants tromp through their circus tent (55 Water Street, NY NY) than all of Africa. But, I digress. Their product is liquidity. Near 100% of "legal tender" bank to bank transactions clear through their circus... Their $2 quadrillion per year circus. Herds of elephants... go tromping through their circus tent. Elephants. Huge herds. Grey, white.... I think not pink; but, I am shy of evidence. Thundering through... Though I am shy of any photographs zapping lightening strikes.. No hear tell of it, evidence wise.
Most folk pay no mind to DTCC. Yet, most bank to bank checks & other financial transactions go through DTCC.
What doss all this mean to you? The checks, stock, bonds, property or other legal tender transaction go through DTCC. Anyone w/ privilege to trace a check or such could see who, when & where the payment was deposited or cashed.
Alas, when it come right down to it. None but the Federal Reserve dare look at who their owners are... Who cashes their royalty receipts. **** For whom doth the bell toll? ***

PPM Part VIII: Sponsor Offers are in for Hockey!

I'm sitting around 135 and it costs over 1M for each.
But your idea of a max number of upgrades is good too. Expenses would still have to be raised as well. Just to stop people from sitting on 500M. I just dot think PPM is willing to do anything to crazy that would upset the paying customers.
What's a rough HA
PM currency ratio?
I think of my TF as being at level 22.5 and costing 650k a day to maintain. I'm not sure how many teams can afford to have the Big 4 with maxed facilities and staff (minus scouting for managers), but I would assume that the top 0.1% or so can/will be able to.
What's the talk in the forms about different servers? There is an article in the Spanish ppm magazine with Tuttle talking about it. Or something.
This article (in English)?
"What can the managers look forward to in 2013?
The biggest news which wasn't published yet, is that we plan to launch a brand new version of soccer or hockey server. The biggest disadvantage of PPM is, that the people who join the game after three or four years are demotivated and the game is not the same for them. We would like to do something like "hockey 2" or "soccer 2", that means new server where everyone will start from scratch and it will be very similar to the current one. The biggest issues will be dealt with and some smaller details which people complain about will also be addressed. For example I can tell you that we would like to have 2 games a day. But all of this is very complicated and it's still only a plan at the moment."

VLT 4LGSF OTA aspherical L2 lens
VLT 4LGSF OTA aspherical L2 lens The high wavefront quality and focus of the OTA is maintained thanks to a 380 mm diameter aspherical collimator lens. TNO has been developing freeform optics related technologies for more than years. Aspheres and freeforms are now used in many space, astronomy and semicon instruments, including the the OTA L2 lenses. The lens was polished at TNO's optical manufacturing facility, using a polishing robot. Key is the iterative loop between the manufacturing (deterministic polishing or diamond turning) and the absolute metrology of the NANOMEFOS machine. This allows for rapid and efficient manufacturing, since no dedicated measurement setup has to be made. All equipment is capable of handling optics ranging from flat to freeform and from convex to concave, up to 500 mm diameter. Link: www.tno.nl/vlt4lgsfCredit:

Paceship 23
i own a 1977 Paceship 23 yacht. it is a fin keel, masthead sloop rigged boat. it is a boat that sails well. it sails even better when the family is not aboard. if you are a wahoo rail to the water sailer then you will love the py 23. she is safe, forgiving, and easy to handle. if the wind is below 10-12 knots stay home as this 1/4 tonner needs wind to sail. in the last two years there was only once that i realy thought about dumping the main. i am glad i didn''t because that''s when i learned that this boat would take care of me. i just bought a columbia 26, and after sailing it home i decided to not to sale the paceship. not just yet anyway. i''ll keep it for the serious sailing.

International hit single "Let Her Go" from Mike Rosenberg, aka Passenger, has been certified Gold by the RIAA, with nearly 600,000 digital tracks sold to date. The single has already reached #1 in 16 countries, boasts more than 100 Million views on YouTube, and achieved Platinum certification in Canada and the UK, where album All The Little Lights has also just been certified Platinum.
Following his sold-out North American summer tour, the VH1 You Oughta Know Artist has been selling over 50,000 digital tracks a week on average. At radio, "Let Her Go" is now Top 15 at Hot AC, Top 20 at Triple A and grabbed 35 Top 40 adds in the past two weeks alone. Meanwhile, the "Let Her Go" video is currently #7 on VH1's Top 20 Countdown, in a top 10 that includes Katy Perry, Lorde, Capital Cities, Lady Gaga, Zedd and Taylor Swift. Album All The Little Lights held the #1 Billboard Heatseekers position for six non-consecutive weeks, and currently sits at #2; the album is now in its 57th consecutive week of the Top New Artists Chart.
On Tuesday, September 17, Nettwerk catalogue artist Old Crow Medicine Show became the newest members of the Grand Ole Opry with a special induction by Opry members Marty Stuart and Dierks Bentley, as well as Opry Vice President and General Manager Pete Fisher. During the pre-show press conference, Nettwerk Music Group's Mark Jowett (VP of International A&R/Publishing) and Danielle Romeo (Sr. Director of Publicity), surprised Old Crow with Platinum plaques commemorating 1 million tracks sold of the band's signature song "Wagon Wheel." The single originally appeared on the band's debut album, O.C.M.S., released in 2004 on Nettwerk.
Old Crow's Ketch Secor was also honored the previous evening at the Ryman Auditorium during a celebration of Darius Rucker's #1 hit "Wagon Wheel," which Secor and Bob Dylan penned.
In a business analysis of the independent sector of UK labels, Music Week reports that Nettwerk has the Top Indie Single and Album of the past 12 months with Passenger's international hit song "Let Her Go" and album All The Little Lights. Additionally, Nettwerk is the #4 Indie Label in the UK for singles and Top 10 for albums over the past 12 months, marking the strongest year for the UK division of the label since its inception.
Says Nettwerk CEO Terry McBride, "It's exciting to see the continued growth of our UK company and the massive success they have had in their marathon run with Passenger. As a company, we never give up."
"Let Her Go" has already been certified Platinum in the UK, with nearly 900,000 digital downloads and over 250,000 albums sold to date. Passenger, who just wrapped a sold-out North American summer headline tour, returns to the UK in October for an already sold-out run of dates.
Read the full analysis from Music Week HERE.
Nettwerk Music Group is pleased to announce the signing of Ben Cooper, aka Radical Face, to its worldwide label roster.
With the self-released LP The Family Tree: The Roots, Ben set out to do something non-traditional and progressively conceptual. In 2011, The Roots was the first installment of a three-part, stand-alone album series that chronicles a fictitious, and sometimes otherworldy, 19th century family.
Radical Face will release the second installment to the series, The Family Tree: The Branches on October 22 via Nettwerk Records. Following the first album, certain instrumentations and melodies that represent a "family member" will reappear in the second album as a continuation of a story or descendent. The Branches will also progress in production using instruments that would have been more readily available in the era of the story set from 1860-1910.
"I like storytelling, and wanted that to be the focus. I looked up genealogy charts and studied some American history for a frame of reference, then pulled from personal experiences and put it all together," says Ben. Such concepts and stories come naturally to Ben, whom before turning to music wrote fiction. He switched to music after a hard drive crash where he lost his two nearly completed novels.

Watch The Lyric Video For Lead Single "As It Seems" (first heard on hit CBS series Criminal Minds): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sut9u9fIkPA
Nettwerk is proud to announce the signing of singer/songwriter Lily Kershaw to its label roster. The Los Angeles-based artist first caught the attention of audiences when her original song "As It Seems" was featured in the 2012 season finale of CBS hit show Criminal Minds. A second song, "Ashes Like Snow," was featured again in the season finale of the series in May 2013. Both tracks are currently available as singles on iTunes and will appear on Kershaw's debut full-length album, Midnight In The Garden, set for release on September 24, 2013.
Midnight In The Garden, produced by John Fields, explores emotional landscapes, with heart clutching melodies that say what most people struggle to say themselves. The album takes root in the titans of folk music…those classic songsmiths who weave tapestries of sound with fingerpicking and tales of often unspoken truths.
Nettwerk CEO Terry McBride says of the new signing, "Lily is simply an amazing artist who captures the spirit of Joni Mitchell with her authentic and emotive storytelling. She takes the listener on a journey."
Nettwerk Music Group announced this week that Steve Lewis, former CEO of Chrysalis Music Group and founder of Stage Three Music, has joined their board as a non-executive director. In his role, Lewis will provide advice and guidance on the Group's development as it further expands its activities as a multi-faceted music company. Lewis joins the board during an era of strong growth and achievements for NMG, which announced last month that it had raised $10.25 Million in equity growth financing to fund new and existing artist development, as well as catalogue acquisitions.
"I am thrilled to welcome a fellow Entrepreneur, Operator and Visionary to Nettwerk's board. Steve's passion for music and knowledge of the Music business landscape is second to none," says Nettwerk CEO Terry McBride.
The Nettwerk UK team is currently enjoying great success with Passenger's hit single "Let Her Go" becoming the label's first ever Platinum single in the UK, with accompanying album All The Little Lights now the label's highest selling album to date in the territory. Additionally, Admiral Fallow was shortlisted at the prestigious Scottish Album of the Year (SAY) Awards. Anticipated upcoming releases from promising new acts include Royal Canoe and Radical Face. The publishing division (NW1) is also hitting new heights this year with acts such as Neon Neon, Perfume Genius, Airbourne, and Sinead O'Connor, alongside a roster of talented songwriters who have recently contributed to albums from the likes of Little Mix, Stooshe and The Wanted. Management client Stereophonics have reclaimed their strong sales base with their first self-released album since departing Universal, Graffiti On The Train, while Atlantic Records signed Fun., who have had huge global impact over the last 12 months.
Steve Lewis as an addition to the board provides another international voice in what is already a multinational independent company.
"I've long admired Nettwerk as an innovative, creative company. It's proven executive team, current successes and the additional resources now available make this a very exciting time to join the company. Nettwerk has established itself as a leading independent with global reach and I'm confident it's destined for even greater success. " says Lewis.
Nettwerk label artists Passenger and Morgan Page are among the established and rising stars named as the judge-determined Winners of The 12th Annual Independent Music Awards (The IMAs), the influential international awards program for independent bands and fans. Passenger won in the Folk/Singer-Songwriter Song of the Year category for "Let Her Go," while Morgan Page took the Dance/Elecrtonica Album of the Year category for his latest full-length, In The Air. The winners were determined by a panel of influential artists, including Tom Waits & Katheleen Brennan, Suzanne Vega, Pete Wentz and G.

U-T Watchdog Report: After fires, city faced another mess
No-bid cleanup deals' 'ridiculous' price tag
Background: The city of San Diego hired private contractors to help fire victims in Rancho Bernardo clear debris and contaminants from their lots. The program cost more than anticipated. The city auditor found "billing inaccuracies and questionable cost" in the program.
What's happening: E-mails, which The San Diego Union-Tribune reviewed, show the city gave one contractor more than $1.5 million in additional work without seeking bids.
The future: A lawsuit against the contractors is pending. The city is developing pre-disaster plans for future wildfires and is billing the companies for overcharges.
Online: For past watchdog reports on city and county debris-removal programs, go to uniontrib.com/more/debris.
San Diego officials awarded a contract to haul wildfire rubble from city-owned land without soliciting bids, despite a warning that the lack of competition could pose problems.
The contract cost more than $1.5 million by the time the company finished clearing debris from rural city land that burned in the 2007 fires. It could have cost much more had a city official not caught what she called "outrageous" prices.
The city gave the contract to Granite Construction Co., a Watsonville-based company that already had won a job with the city to clear private home sites that burned west of Interstate 15 in Rancho Bernardo. The city expects federal, state and local tax money to pay for most of both contracts.
The job on public land was a handshake agreement, according to e-mails among city officials, which The San Diego Union-Tribune obtained through a public records request.
It was not part of the city auditor's recent investigation of work on the private lots, though auditors did review some records to ensure they didn't overlap with those for Rancho Bernardo.
For the private lots, auditors determined the contractors overcharged the city and submitted some inaccurate and questionable invoices. They concluded city staff didn't properly monitor the contractors and weren't prepared or equipped to handle such a large program.
City auditor Eduardo Luna said he didn't look into the contract for city-owned land because Mayor Jerry Sanders specifically asked him to investigate the cleanup of private lots. Sanders requested the audit after a watchdog report in the Union-Tribune raised questions about the bills.
The mayor's office did not answer the newspaper's questions about the contract on city-owned property. The office also did not allow Tammy Rimes, the city official in charge of the contracting process, to discuss it even though she said she was willing to.
Andrew Jones, assistant city attorney for civil litigation, said he advised that it was "inappropriate" for city staff to discuss the contract because of a lawsuit his office filed that challenges the billings. The city signed contracts with Granite and A.J. Diani Construction Co. of Santa Maria to help homeowners rid their Rancho Bernardo properties of burned debris and potentially toxic contaminants.
During negotiations, e-mails show, city officials told the companies that the one with the fewest lots would get a contract for land the city's Water Department owns in the San Pasqual Valley and Pamo Valley, and around the Sutherland Reservoir and Lake Hodges.

Day 3
The weather was too crapy to stick around and have breakfast so we just packed up and left. We headed from camp back down to Glen Springs Road and headed downhill on that towards the River Road. We had been warned that the River Road was quite sandy in spots making us a bit apprehensive but we were at least willing to test the waters. No real plan for the day other than to just ride around and check out the park. We had booked a room up at the Chisos Mountain Lodge for that night so we knew where we needed to be at the end of the day.
On route down to the River Road we played leap-frog with a fella in a jeep. We stopped, he passed. He stopped, we passed. In the picture below you can see part of the road we just came down. Great scenery.
Once on the River Road we decided it was time for coffee since we had missed our coffee fix earlier. It was still a bit chilly though it must have been close to 11:00 already.
As we were waiting for the water to boil the guy in the jeep rolled by so we chatted a bit. He mentioned something about getting a flat the last time he had traveled that road. We said we knew all about fixing flats.
As soon as he left I looked over and Kerrys front tire was flat again! WTF? We were now running low on patches with only one big one left. I cut it into several smaller pieces and went to work on the tube once again. We got it inflated and headed out.
We were taking the shorter route out towards the Rio Grand Village as we needed gas and there was a store there. I looked for a patch kit but no luck. While at the village I spied this cool Overland truck. Sweet rig and the visor above the windshield is really cool.
I talked to a fella in the parking lot and he mentioned some dual sport rental trailer in Terlingua and that the proprietor there would be able to direct me to the local motorcycle shop as apparently it is quite difficult to find. We headed back across the park taking the main paved road. It would be about 20 miles up to Panther Junction and then another 29 or so into Terlingua. At this point Kerrys tire needed to be pumped up every 15 minutes or so. Fortunately we had picked up some air compressors at Cycle Gear at 50% for $19.99 each. These came in handy and they plug right into our battery tender connections.
After about 3 pit stops to air up along the way we finally got out there. Somehow it was already after 4:00 p.m.
We quickly spotted the DS bike rental trailer. There were a few fellas handing around inside and it looked like they were working on some front wheel bearings on a WR two-fitty. We got to chatting about our square tire situation and the guy handed me a bolt with a nut on the end that he said fit in the axle of his Tiger. Didnt quite fit so I filed down the small burrs I had created the previous day attempting to break the axle loose using other objects. Still didnt fit and we were out of ideas.
Next best option was to go with some Slime so I ran up the street to the hardware store and picked up a bottle. When I got back the shop guy had now found a bolt with a 14 mm head on it and a 17 mm nut. After threading on the nut a few turns he proceeded to beat the shit out of it using a sledge hammer and a spare trailer hitch he had lying in the back of his truck. I stuck this in the axle and after a bit of spinning the nut caught on the smashed up threads and the axle started to come loose. Phew. That was the most expensive nut and bolt I ever bought - $5. This ones staying in my tool kit.
Here's a shot of the trailer.
These guys have loads of appropriately sized DS bikes that I would ride anywhere in this area. Decent prices too at something like $150/day for the big GS bike and closer to $130 for DR/KLX/WR type bikes.
It was now closing time and being situated right next to the RV park riders started to roll in. We met a few nice folks that afternoon. One in particular was quite helpful and gave us some great pointers for rides we best not miss out on while in the area. He goes by the name of Waldo. Super friendly and I hope I catch up with him again someday. He told us to make sure and ride out to Boquillas Canyon Overlook and to do the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive down to Castolon and the Cottonwood Campground.
It was now time to head back into the park and get up to the lodge. The hour was getting late and the light was getting just right.
Once up at the lodge we checked in and then promptly took showers to wash all of last nights sand out of ......
We briefly took in the view on the patio by the restraunt. This would be a great place to sip a margerita in the warmer months. Nice place. Diner at the lodge was nice and we certainly slept a lot better than the previous night.

India's holy men to advise on PM Modi's Ganges River clean-up
Published on Jun 12, 2014 10:28 PM
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India's new government will seek the advice of holy men on how best to carry out an ambitious plan by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to clean up the Ganges, a river that is sacred to the majority Hindu population.
Hindus bathe in the Ganges in an act of ritual purification, yet the 2,500km-long river stretching from the Himalayas to the Bay of Bengal is full of industrial effluent and untreated sewage, its banks strewn with garbage.
Previous attempts to clean up the river, including introducing flesh-eating turtles to devour the charred remains of the dead cremated on its banks, have failed due to a lack of planning or coordination.
Mr Modi, elected last month to represent the 3,000-year-old riverside city of Varanasi, has taken personal responsibility for restoring Maa Ganga, or "Mother Ganges", as part of a broader push to husband India's scarce water resources and improve standards of public health and hygiene.
