Louis Vuitton brings back the bohemian look
More News from Alex Y. Vergara
In an exclusive presentation for regional fashion journalists at the Peak in Hong Kong two weeks ago, Louis Vuitton showed its 2014 Cruise Collection inspired by iconic elements from the '70s and '80s, including chambray ensembles, wooden slip-on clogs, short cotton and silk dresses and blouses in stripes, gingham and floral prints.
As envisioned by LV creative director Marc Jacobs and chief women's design director Julie de Libran, the collection is inspired by the bohemian woman with her penchant for layering, ad hoc approach to dressing and mix-matching colors and prints.
There were also Chanel-inspired tweedy coats, blouses and jackets with frayed, contrasting trimmings and huge, geometric pockets. Floral prints featured dainty but chic flowers.
Bold gingham prints found their way in dresses, double-breasted jackets, skirts and even platform wedges.
Platforms with less-dizzying heel heights shared the limelight with classic and pointed stilettos made of leather and python.
Even as they exuded the '70s vibe, LV slip-on wooden clogs were less chunky and threatening than the original inspirations. The same restraint was evident in ankle boots and loafers
that referenced the '80s.
What some shoes lacked in heft, they more than made up for in embellishments. Casual footwear, including an attractive pair of python loafers, had rivets.
Apart from comfy moccasin slip-ons, the LV Cruise Collection also had slippers in leather and denim and barely-there two-strap sandals.
For more dressy evenings, women can choose from a line of open-toe footwear in leather and suede with either platform or conventional heels.
Since the clothes were meant to be worn on holidays during a shift in seasons, LV gave women various options to layer and uncover.
During balmy weather in some island-resort, for instance, women may choose to pair an A-line cotton skirt with a sleeveless silk top inspired by the LV bandana. At the same time, they have plenty of light jackets, cover-ups and even hooded windbreakers to choose from should temperatures dip.
The collection won't be complete without LV's "it" bags. For this season, Jacobs and his collaborators opted for a continuation of the reinterpretation of the classic Damier print.
This time, though, bags— totes, pochettes and clutches— come in orange, yellow and light-gray versions of the iconic Damier print.
According to an LV press material, the season's "star" bag is a "reinterpretation of the 2013 Fall-Winter show's crocodile pochette, this time in sublimely supple Taurillon leather."
It can be worn casually slung across the body or carried nonchalantly folded in one's hand. The luxury brand's iconic Sac Plat was also reinterpreted using exotic leather patchwork.
From looking like an expensive toiletry bag, the Sac Plat has morphed into a chic clutch that underscores the LV woman's style come early 2014: carefree and fashionably bohemian.

— When it comes to your child, how short is too short?
That question has experts split in a fierce debate over the safety and ethics and cosmetically enhancing kids' height, following a government advisory panel's recommendation that growth hormone be approved for use in healthy but unusually short children.
The hormone known as Humatrope, made by Eli Lilly, is now approved only for use in children with rare medical conditions. But the Food and Drug Administration is now mulling the possibility of expanding its use to make extremely short children — boys under 5 foot 3 inches and girls under 4 foot 11 inches — grow taller than they naturally would. The cutoff point to be considered eligible for treatment is under age 14.
Some believe approval of human growth hormone for non-medical reasons will rescue "vertically challenged" children from the societal stigma of being small. But others worry about the implications of such a decision: Will this send a message that short stature is a sickness, an abnormality in need of a "cure"?
It's Not Easy Being Short
No matter what size you may be, it is not difficult to empathize with the plight of a short kid born into a society that seems to revere massive professional athletes and where advertising thrives on images of tall, leggy supermodels.
Short kids report in some studies that they fall victim to the teasing of their peers, while other research shows there are real differences in the way people are treated based on their height.
Nicole Costa, 17, who testified before the FDA after receiving what she refers to as "life-changing" growth hormone injections, remembers that at age 6, "The kids were like, 'Your legs aren't long enough. You can't play in these games. You don't run fast enough.' And, I couldn't reach the water fountain."
Being small in a tall world can take a serious psychological toll on a child, many experts feel. It's for that reason some doctors have been willing to prescribe the "off-label" use of human growth hormones in healthy but extremely small kids.
Doctors had predicted Costa would only reach a height of 4 foot 8 inches but with growth hormones she grew to 5 foot 2 inches and can personally attest to the fact that "being taller helps your self-confidence when you're in a crowd of people. It also helps you feel that you're not different, that you don't have to look up to people, that you can just blend right in."
While some experts feel the average 2 inches of height achieved by growth hormone injections may not be worth the price (about $30,000) — or the pain (six invasive injections per week for several years) — Costa disagrees. "To grow, even just 2 inches taller than 4-foot-8 is a big deal when it means that you can drive a normal size car," she says.
The Medicalization of Height
But while some believe growth hormones can relieve children of being teased or picked on, many worry giving short but healthy children growth hormones will only further perpetuate the stigma attached to small stature.
"The message we send to society is that any boy who is less than 5-foot-3 is ill and can avail themselves of a remedy. This is very dangerous as it causes people to make judgments of acceptability and normalcy rather than simply being open to variety and variation," explains John Tuohey, director of the Providence Center for Health Care Ethics in Providence, Ore.

Wahidah Ismail was placed ninth in the 10m air pistol event on countback to miss the cut for the final at the Commonwealth Games on Friday. - Filepic
GLASGOW: Mohd Ezuan Nasir Khan is skinny for a shooter but that didn't stop him from registering a personal best of 613.4 points to qualify for the final in the men's 10m air rifle event.
In the final, though, the 25-year-old, weighing only 45kg, did well to garner 119.7 points to finish sixth among eight shooters at the Barry Buddon Shooting Range.
India's Abhinav Bindra accumulated 205.3 points to clinch the gold while Bangladesh's Abdullah Baki (202.1) took the silver. England's Daniel Rivers (182.4) settled for bronze.
Ezuan, however, was not too disappointed about finishing sixth in the final elimination round.
"This is my first Commonwealth Games … I'm more than happy about improving my personal best," said Ezuan, whose previous best was 613.1.
There was also heartbreak for Wahidah Ismail in the women's 10m air pistol.
The 23-year-old Perak-born shooter accumulated 375 points to be tied with three others – Carol Kennerley of Wales, Dorothy Ludwig of Canada and Bangladesh's Ardina Ferdous – in seventh spot.
But Wahidah was placed ninth on countback. Kennerley and Ludwig were placed seventh and eighth while Ardina was 10th.
Kennerley and Ludwig moved into the final.
Singapore's Teo Shun Xie amassed 198.6 points in the final to break the women's 10m air pistol record en route to the gold medal. India's Malaika Goel (197.1) took silver and Canada's Ludwig (177.2) the bronze.
Wahidah was in tears after losing a place in the final on countback.
"I was glad to have improved my personal best and I was confident of making the final cut. But, sadly, I lost on countback," said Wahidah, who is studying accounting at Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).
Meanwhie, Joseline Cheah Lee Yean, who won the pairs gold in the 2010 New Delhi Games, finished a disappointing 12th yesterday with a lowly 373 points – which was eight points short of her personal best.

David and his friend, acrobatic pilot Rob Marsicano had plans to do a formation takeoff from Danbury Municipal Airport. Rob in his Pitts S2B and David in the Acro Sport he spent five years building on the top floor of Franklin Glass, his shop in Stamford, Connecticut.
After that stunt David and I were going to do my favorite kind of flying, leaf peeping from above. This is New England after all, and I'm gaga about autumn. But just as our adorable red and black planes got the clearance to position ourselves for takeoff, Rob noticed he had a flat tire. We waved farewell, thought "better you than us" and took off without him.
|David and Rob await clearance to take off.
There are really no words to describe what can be seen while buzzing low above northwestern Connecticut's hills when they are covered with deciduous trees in their final blaze of the year. Against the brown of the already dead leaves and the lemon drop yellow of those just about to expire, the fully clothed evergreens were even more dramatic, the farmers' fields an even brighter green.
|View from David's Acro Sport
|View over northwest Connecticut
With ceilings about 2800 feet we kept low and were equally dazzled when we looked up at what was probably the very outer fringes of Hurricane Sandy still more than 48 hours in our future.
But we could not pretend the storm would never come and neither could the other airplane owners at Danbury. On touch down we saw that while we flew, many planes had been shoved into hangars and those still outdoors had been tied down. All except the Albatross.
|Beautiful classic plane (and the classic car -mine - is not bad either.)
You read that right. As we sat in the hangar, chomping on sugar cookies (I had to contribute something!) and making fun of Rob for spending the day repairing his tire rather than flying, David's friend Les, an airline captain and aviation writer, drove by, the cab of his pickup truck packed with fellow pilots on their way across the airfield to help tie down the little airport's newest and most glamorous arrival, a Grumman HU-16A flying boat.
"What", you may ask "is that doing at a general aviation airport in New England?" And while the question is best directed to its owner, retired airline captain and author Tom Casey, I'll give the brief details.
|Tom Casey in the cabin of his Albatross
The flight was not without its adventures, which you can read about on Casey's own website by clicking here.
|The cockpit of the Albatross
With countless miles of land and sea having passed beneath its majestic belly it doesn't seem quite fair that this latest edition of flying history should be persecuted by elements just few months after taking to the skies again.
|Seating area in the Albatross. Entry to the cockpit is in the background.
|Tom on the wing, Dave and Les below
Wings belted to the ground, tail cushioned by a pile of tires, nose gear secured to cement blocks, the Albatross like the rest of the region, awaits an ambiguous future. And for me, at least, without regrets. We had a perfect day; convivial below and magnificent above.
|My friend David Paqua takes me flying in the fall.

Leaked Concept Art of SHIELD Helicarrier for Marvel Movie(s)
By sora_thekey 18 Comments
Russian website, SpiderMedia.Ru, recently posted two concept art images of SHIELD's most notable artifact; The Helicarrier.
It appears to be a CGI screenshot of the Helicarrier design from different angles, along with comic book references.
The design is by artist George Hull (Who also worked on the Matrix sequels)
What I can understand from the rough translation (Thanks to Google Translate), is that last year's Hall of Armors, and Odin's Throne this year at the Marvel Booth will be nothing compared to next year's scale recreation of a Helicarrier! Can't Wait for that!
"Originally it was supposed to appear in the movie " Iron Man 2", but over time things changed and the idea was shelved for later.
Probability of the aircraft carrier in Joss Whedon's new ( Avengers) movie is very high, given that representatives of Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige want to make a big surprise for everyone and build up an aircraft carrier to the top of San Diego Comic-Con 2011."
It was inevitable for the SHIELD Helicarrier to appear in a Marvel Movies. Question is, what do you think of the Helicarrier in the Avengers movie? Is the Helicarrier too big an object for the big screen?
Might we see this big piece of machinery before the Avengers movie? Perhaps in the Thor or Captain America movie?

SHAH ALAM: There is no ban on the sales of beer at convenience stores in Muslim-majority areas in Selangor, but the outlets concerned have been urged to practise self-regulation until proper guidelines are formulated.
"Convenience stores are allowed to sell alcoholic beverages in Muslim-majority areas but this must be done with care," Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said.
"We need them to have a separate cooler and sales can only be made to non-Muslims," he told reporters after a one-and-half-hour meeting with convenience store owners and Shah Alam mayor Datuk Mazalan Md Noor on Friday.
Khalid added that self-regulation would begin in Sections 1 to 24 in the city here for a month as a test case before it is extended to other Muslim-majority areas in the state.
He said the sale of alcoholic beverages in Malaysia is governed by Customs regulations and no license is required for the sale of canned and bottled beer.
"So, we are addressing the issue on social grounds. Our aim is not to infringe on the cultural rights and beliefs of non-Muslims and at the same time we do not need to come up with too many laws to control the drinking habit among Muslims and teens," he said.
Khalid said the Pakatan Rakyat-controlled state government respected the spirit of free enterprise and wanted businesses to thrive, but would also respond to the concerns of their immediate communities.
Asked if the meeting on Friday also discussed Selangor PAS' call to strip state executive councillor Ronnie Liu of his local government portfolio, Khalid said it was a non-issue as the discussion was to seek a solution to beer sales.
He said that the letters sent by the Shah Alam City Council to convenience stores to stop beer sales were null and void with the self-regulatory mechanism taking effect.
KK Group of Companies business owner Datuk Dr Douglas K.K. Chai, who said his firm has 40 outlets in Selangor, feels that self-regulation was a good immediate measure.
"Alcoholic beverages contribute the better part of our sales and this self-regulation method would have some effect on our bottom-line. But we respect all people, and their religious and cultural beliefs," he said.
Mazalan said the city council respected the state government's decision and would monitor and assist businesses in fine-tuning their self-regulation methods.

First love can be a bittersweet and intense experience, especially if it is unrequited. It can also change us in ways we may not grasp until much later.
I discovered love for the first time when I was seven years old. He was a distant cousin — one amongst many thanks to my large close-knit family in Lahore, Pakistan. We gravitated towards each other, despite the fact that I was the younger, studious little girl while he was a rambunctious boy. We spent our time mostly play acting in our world of Star Wars, space travels and building blocks.
We were sitting in the dirt one evening when I looked at him in wonder. In my seven-year-old mentality, I realized that I loved this little boy. I wanted to marry him so that we could always play together and build castles and spaceships.
From that moment, I knew he was THE ONE. And I didn't tell a soul.
In my little girl mind, I needed to become just like him so he would love me back. To do that, I had to change certain things about myself. I had my long, beautiful curls cut off in favor of a short haircut like his. I begged my mom to buy me the same shorts and tee shirts that he wore. I trailed behind him like a little puppy, clinging to his every word and imitating his gestures.
I had no idea if he felt anything for me apart from being protective (he once kicked a much older boy cousin in the shin who was bullying me) or maybe amused affection. In my mind, there was no doubt that my happily-ever-after with him was imminent. Maybe not immediately, but it would one day materialize
One day did come, and it wasn't what I imagined: without any warning, he stopped talking to me. Bewildered and hurt beyond belief, my little romantic heart that had been so full of love and innocence tasted the first morsel of heartbreak. I remembered feeling that someone had stabbed me in the chest. Although my feelings were a whirlwind of jumbled, adolescent emotions, the pain was real. How many times have we heard that the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference? And indifferent I was not. I was angry with him, and I stayed angry for years.
Something changed when I was fifteen years old. That summer brought a big family wedding. As fate would have it, our families ended up spending time together, and slowly but surely, so did me and my cousin. I don't recall exactly when the awkward silence between us broke. I finally had the courage to ask him why he had stopped talking to me. He explained that some family members had started teasing him about it. He felt that he was getting forced into the idea of marrying me.
I was so ecstatic for the rekindling friendship that I did not question him why the thought of marrying me was so horrifying. Instead, we discussed our hopes and dreams, our career goals, and ideas about faith and life. This time, I decided to woo with my femininity and started dressing up. Even though Pakistani society considered my green eyes and fair skin to be a sign of beauty, I never had any illusion that it gave me any advantage. And alas, I wasn't what he wanted.
Imagine the day when he confessed that he was in love with a girl that embodied his ideals. His exact words were that I was like a "Volkswagen" – cute and reliable – but that the girl he loved was a "Mercedes." He could not stop thinking about her. For a second time around, he felt I wasn't good enough. And like before, he ceased contact with me.
What was WRONG with me? Was I ugly? Did I have some invisible repulsion that I could not see? I alternated between feeling angry, sad, and humiliated. I wanted to forget him and for the pain would go away.
We met again at a social event several months later. I was supremely relieved to discover that finally, after ten years of being in love with him, I could look at him neutrally without wanting to either throw myself at him or cry. Both of us were changing. We were moving towards adulthood. He was no longer the person I knew and loved.
I wish I could say that I moved on, found the love of my life, and forgot about the past. Alas, that is not my story. Shortly afterwards, I did get married to someone that my family chose for me. The marriage lasted several years and ended due to reasons both simple and complex. This unearthed unresolved issues about my past. The little girl in me blamed myself. Plagued with self-doubt, I felt unsure if I was lovable.
I realized that I had to forgive my first love — my cousin — as part of my path towards healing and self-realization. I still don't know if he ever had romantic feelings for me. Perhaps as a young boy, and then as a young man, he did not know how to deal with uncertain and muddled emotions except with anger and retreat. Today he is happily married with a family. We are polite to one another. It is possible that he has no idea the turmoil he created in my life. But most importantly, I realize that knowing how he felt about me would not change mine.
My ten-year love saga brought agony and eroded the kind of confidence youth often provides. On the surface, I had everything going for me based on society's criterion of looks, education and family "status." I was forced to reconsider the worth of many things because of the loss of the one thing I wanted so badly. I discovered the hard way that you cannot force someone to love you, no matter how much you try or how wonderful you are. You absolutely cannot put the reins of your worth through the eyes of someone else. In the end, his rejection made me a more humble and considerate person although would take year to come to that realization.
When I think of the anguish I suffered due to my unrequited love, I don't consider it as foolish or something that I blew out of proportion. I was very young and my love was one-sided. Regardless, the experience was real and it affected me deeply. Today, I can honestly say that I have let go of my anger and resentment.
My journey is my own. I hope my future path will bring someone who can appreciate me at face value. I intuitively understand that I have taken the ashes of my first love and scattered them to the wind. This has power over me no more. What an immensely satisfying feeling.

London - Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye confirmed on Monday he is in talks about organising a fight with Vitali Klitschko in March.
The British boxer officially retired in October but was known to be ready to fight again if the opportunity arose for him to avenge his July defeat by Wladimir Klitschko or take on his elder brother.
"I haven't seen a contract but there's definitely talks going on," Haye told the BBC's Hardtalk programme.
"I said before I retired I would love that fight and there's a date in March that's already been talked about."
The Ukrainian brothers had claimed talks had been ongoing over a meeting with Vitali, the WBC champion, following Haye's unification loss to IBF/WBO champion Wladimir in Hamburg earlier this year.
Haye himself had already stated he had merely "retired from fighting anyone without the Klitschko surname".
A date in early March in Dusseldorf, Germany has long been talked about.

Enjoy breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea, relax, leave your cares behind….let the sound of the surf romance you….swim in the moonlight, shower under the stars. Welcome to Punta Santiago, Puerto Rico your private home, steps from the beach.
My name is Arturo González I was born and raised in sunny Miami, Florida. My family is originally from Cuba and also Puerto Rico. I love to enjoy the beautiful beaches and laid back lifestyle from the islands. I am a nurse practitioner by profession and have a very stressful and demanding work life. I purchased this home in 2000 and love to use this home to unwind and embrace a peaceful setting. This is truly an oasis.
Arturo Gonzalez purchased this house in 2000
One of the best places in the world to go on vacation is Puerto Rico. In this exquisite home away from home, you can definitely enjoy everything Puerto Rico has to offer for you. Whether you want a day at the beach, a night out on the town, or just a relaxing evening at home. This home is you. With 4000 sq ft of living area, you'll never be crowded whether it's you and your mate or you're entire family. You can sleep up to 8 comfortably! Just steps to the Caribbean ocean, this 2-story Mediterranean home is completely furnished, with a beautiful landscaping, private outdoor pool, washer & dryer, air conditioned throughout, jetted hot tub in the master bathroom, and many extras. You can admire the ocean right from home.
Local Beaches
Puerto Rico has some of the best beaches fit for an oasis. From this beautiful caribbean oasis, you can relax and truly call this home. You'll feel nothing less than the comforts of home and much more. Located just steps from the beach in Villa Palmira, Humacao, is this incredible home. You have access to crystal clear beaches nearby just a drive away!
Without a doubt a true peace of paradise in the Caribbean! I truly recommend this to all that are willing to sit back and enjoy the essential things of life!
Very, very close to the beach. Great pool and patio area in the back - our favorite part of the house. We have young kids and were thankful that you could lock the door to the outdoor pool area with a key so we didn't have to worry about them being able to get out there unattended. Also a great patio upstairs where you have a view of the beach. The house is not brand new, but was very clean. Has a garage and you can park out front. There is 1 bedroom upstairs with its own bathroom. You walk through the room with bunkbeds to get to 2 more bedrooms. One of those 2 has its own bathroom and the other bathroom is off of the room with bunk beds. There is also a half bath between the garage and the pool outside. The kitchen had everything we needed to make many meals and we loved eating outside.
We did have trouble finding the house from the airport when we first arrived and weren't able to reach the owner to get help. He did email directions ahead of time and I'm not sure if my phone was working well, so I don't blame him at all, just a heads up to drop a pin at the home's location rather than putting the address in your phone if you're using it for navigation. And Google maps seemed to work better for us when we were using our phones to navigate to local attractions.
We were about 5 minutes from Walmart, gas stations, Walgreens, etc. About 1 hour from Old San Juan, 45 minutes drive from El Yunque, 35-40 minutes to Luquillo beach, and 3-5 minutes from Humacao nature reserve where you can kayak, hike or fish. And, unfortunately our trip was cancelled due to weather, but the person who does kayaking trips to monkey island with barefoot travelers lives a few houses away and the trip leaves 5 minutes from the house. Our favorite restaurant was Pura Vida, in palmas deal mar, about a 15 minute drive.
The owner was easy to work with and responded promptly to my emails.
Overall, a wonderful trip and a wonderful rental house for all 8 of us (3 couples and 2 young children).
This home was perfect for a nice relaxing week with family. We stayed with our 2 children and my brother in laws family (also two children) and my mother in law . We had more than enough room.
The outdoor space is incredible. The home is very well maintained. The pics shown are all accurate. The upstairs patio is great for sunrises (if you don't want to walk the 50 yards to the beach).
We would recommend loading up on groceries at Walmart on your way in, then using the small market about 5 min north for anything you forgot. The Nature Preserve right next store was a nice surprise
Overall a great rental home..
We booked this house for an extended family vacation. There were 5 adults; two couples, one grandparent and 3 grandkids. The bedroom accommodations were great for our needs. The kids loved having the pool and it allowed the adults to have relaxing time sitting by the side of the pool or on the patio. The owner was very easy to contact and answered all our questions about what was available at the house. He did everything possible to make sure our arrival was easy and that our stay was comfortable.
We did miss having an oven, but the convection oven and gas grill satisfied all our cooking needs. We cooked the majority of all our meals at the house. There are plenty of grocery stores in the immediate area. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, flatware, table service, etc. We had plenty of towels for the pool and showers.
The location is very quiet, but also very close to major shopping areas. It is easy to get to the major highways to take day trips to other attractions. We were able to take a snorkeling trip over to Vieques from a chartered boat located at Palmas Del Mar.
There were some minor maintenance problems with the upstairs shower and the hot water heater. These are only minor inconveniences and are easily overlooked as you experience the ocean at your doorstep.
Recomend this property to those who like the quiet and are willing to travel to other activities. The pictures don't do it any justice at all the home was well suited. I woke up every morning to watch the sunrise from thee terrace absolutely my favorite thing besides being so close to the beach. Love Love Love. definetly will be back to PR and will continue to rent this home for our stays. Also property was well kept and the owner is very helpful.
This was a girls trip which consisted of 5 girls and 1 young teen for a good friends birthday who chose Puerto Rico as the place to go and we were so lucky to have found this place!
We were on the phone with owner Arturo who was so friendly and patient giving us directions to the property once we were in the area and we may have screamed in this poor mans ear with excitement once we turned the corner of the street to the house when we seen the beautiful Carribean Sea right in front of us and which was literally a few steps away! Absolutely gorgeous! We entered the home which was grand, very open and spacious throughout. It is tastefully decorated with beautiful art and furnishings. Very clean and well maintained. It did not end there because we then went to the backyard with the perfect pool and beautiful landscaping. It just has the perfect setting with plenty of seating, covered patio and grill. But then it does not even end there! You go upstairs to the outside terrace and rooftop with the breathtaking views and where I began my mornings watching the beautiful sunrise. This location was a true hidden paradise and we loved it! Itvwas so nice not having to deal with crowds of people on the beach. So peaceful to enjoy and take in all the beauty around you. Being in a gated community gave us a sense of privacy and safety. The neighbors were so friendly and very inviting which was real nice and made for an more pleasant stay! We were conveniently located just minutes from grocery stores, shops, restaurants and highways. Even walking distance to a couple local friendly places to grab a quick bite. I could go on and on about this beautiful property but all I know is I will definitely be returning to Puerto Rico and will only stay here! The only very minor setback was that we were not getting very good internet connection in some areas of the house. It worked just fine outside as well as on the terrace but who wants to be surfing the web when you can be surfing the waves right outside your house! Thank you so much for making our 1st experience of Puerto Rico a very beautiful, relaxing and memorable one!

I am not a big fan of monologues. Maybe because soliloquies are not easy to perform, write and direct, and most of the time they drain out both the actor and the viewer. But the same can not be said for Dayashankar Ki Diary. Written and directed by Nadira Zaheer Babbar, the play dwells into the mind and soul of an outsider in Mumbai.
Dayashankar came to Mumbai to try his luck in Hindi movies. The play is a dramatiisd memoir of a man who could not live up to his own dreams. He lives in his own world, where fantasies and realities merge till the point they become inseparable. The play traces the downfall of a man who is victim to his own desires. Hailing from Farukhabad in UP, he dreams of fame, love and money. Though he joins a clerical job in his struggling days, he lives with job all his life. A subtle hint by the writer that his struggle never actually comes to an end. He finds himself imprisoned by his thoughts. Dayashankar realises that the life he dreams is unreal and that unreality is becoming even more real.
City life is not for everybody. We all feel trapped in this routine lifestyle, running after trains, cabs, jobs and money. Who doesn't want to free themselves from the shackles of mundane life? But we are used to it. Dayashankar, on the other hand, can't accept the harsh realities and chooses to live in his unreal world. The way Vidyarthi traces the journey of this cheerful, hard working small-towner, who also mocks at the ways of the city and its inhabitants, to someone who cannot cope with its heartlessness, is heart-wrenching. Though it is his story, Dayashankar is everywhere around us. It is a treat to watch Vidyarthi build up the role and then crush it in front of the audience. While his jabs on his peers and superiors make us laugh, Dayashankar's end leave us heart-broken.
The later part of the play could have been written better though. His frenzy and how he turns into a madman could have been explained properly. Maybe the writer understands the boredom of seeing just one person on stage by the audiences and hence decided not to stretch the play. But even if she had prolonged it, nobody would have complained. Not even the non-fans of monologues like me.

The influenza A (H1N1) virus, commonly known as swine flu, seems to have made an appearance in the city once again.
Last week, one death was reported in Tiruvottiyur due to the virus and over 10 cases have been confirmed by laboratories in various localities since then.
K. Kathirvel (58) a resident of Tiruvottiyur High Road, died on October 12 at 11.50 p.m. at a private hospital. Doctors confirmed his death was due to A (H1N1). Many residents in areas such as Kilpauk, Mylapore, Velachery and Taramani have been admitted to private hospitals with symptoms of the flu over the past two weeks.
A senior Chennai Corporation official however, said hospitals have reported only one case to the civic body and that there was no outbreak of the disease.
Apollo Hospital authorities said they had been receiving patients with symptoms of swine flu and recently, one of their patients, a 64-year-old man, died due to the flu.
Patients have come in with a variety of symptoms – severe body ache and joint pain in addition to fever, doctors said.
Some patients have also had symptoms of dengue and chikungunya and low platelet counts but have tested negative for A (H1N1), said V. Ramasubramanian, consultant, infectious diseases at Apollo.
Public health officials however, said A (H1N1) influenza had changed from being a pandemic influenza into a seasonal influenza.
"If we test a set of given samples, there will be several cases of H1N1 as it is now a seasonal disease. There is no need for residents to panic. We constantly monitor cities such as Chennai, Coimbatore and Vellore, where there are a large number of hospitals. We are also maintaining daily reports on the number of cases reported and are alert to the threat of an outbreak," said an official.
From January 1 up until September 15 this year, there have been 26 laboratory-confirmed cases of pandemic A (H1N1) influenza and three deaths in Tamil Nadu, according to the website of the Union health ministry.

Djokovic Looks To Make History In Cincinnati
Cincinnati, U.S.A.
by ATP Staff|
World No. 1 Novak Djokovic could carve himself another slice of history at the Western & Southern Open next week as he looks to complete the Career Golden Masters in Cincinnati.
The 27-year-old Serb is looking to become the first singles player in history (since 1990) to win all nine ATP World Tour Masters 1000 titles. He has already won the Indian Wells (d. Federer), Miami (d. Nadal) and Rome (d. Nadal) Masters 1000 crowns this season.
Djokovic, a four-time runner-up in Cincinnati, will open his bid against either Gilles Simon or a qualifier. The Belgrade native is seeded to meet No. 16 Tommy Robredo in the third round, though the Spaniard faces a tough opener in American wild card Jack Sock.

Buy Tickets | Watch Live Online
Sixth seed David Ferrer and No. 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga – who defeated Djokovic for the loss of just four games in Toronto this week – are both potential quarter-final opponents for the Serb.
Third seed Stan Wawrinka and No. 7 Grigor Dimitrov headline the top half of the draw with Djokovic. Wawrinka, who won his first Masters 1000 title in Monte-Carlo (d. Federer), could face Ivo Karlovic in the second round and potentially Marin Cilic or Feliciano Lopez in the third round.
View Full Singles Draw
The 23-year-old Dimitrov, who is through to the semi-finals in Toronto, is set to meet either Jerzy Janowicz or a qualifier in the second round, with the prospect of 10th seed Richard Gasquet in the third round.
Five-time former champion Roger Federer is chasing a 22nd ATP World Tour Masters 1000 trophy in Cincinnati, but faces a tricky opener against either Radek Stepanek or recent Washington runner-up Vasek Pospisil.
The Swiss is projected to meet eighth seed Andy Murray in the quarter-finals. However, the Scot will need to come through a section of the draw that features home favourite and 2013 runner-up John Isner and Kevin Anderson, who was edged out in the Toronto quarter-finals Friday by Dimitrov. Murray is also a former Cincinnati champion, lifting the trophy in 2008 and 2011, beating Djokovic on both occasions.
Tomas Berdych rounds out the top four seeds and faces Yen-Hsun Lu or Denis Istomin following a first-round bye. For a quarter-final spot, the Czech could meet 15th seed Fabio Fognini or two-time Cincinnati finalist Lleyton Hewitt.
Seeded to meet Berdych in the last eight is Milos Raonic. The Canadian could face young gun Dominic Thiem in the second round and is anticipated to meet ninth seed Ernests Gulbis in the third round.
Main draw play begins in Cincinnati on Sunday, 11 August.

"It's all about these girls in Hollywood getting into trouble," Nasser told the Times. "You see them all go to jail, you see them get arrested, you see them go through trials and tribulations."
Nasser, who also is the executive producer on the new Anna Nicole Smith bio-pic, said the "Brats" script will be based on "public record" and use the names of "real people."
He would not, however, reveal if any of those names will be Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears.
"I'm not allowed to let those names out yet," he said, adding "As long as we stick to the truth, we're in good shape."
Although it is yet to be cast, the independent film is set to go before the cameras on Oct. 30, the Times said.

Wednesday, March 26, 2008
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
ATLANTA - The House will take up a new version of transportation funding legislation Thursday aimed at winning enough votes from minority Democrats to ensure its passage.But a Senate Republican leader warned Tuesday that the proposal's ultimate fate could be tied to whether lawmakers can agree on a tax-cutting plan before gaveling this year's legislative session to a close early next month. "If we can come up with a tax cut, it would make more sense to allow voters to go to the polls to decide whether to increase taxes (for transportation projects)," said Senate President Pro Tempore Eric Johnson, R-Savannah. The transportation bill cleared the House Rules Committee last week, its final stop before reaching the floor. The legislation would set a statewide referendum authorizing a series of regional votes on whether to levy a 1 percent sales tax to pay for needed highway and transit improvements. If Georgia voters approve the statewide measure, local elected officials in each region then would decide whether to put the 1 percent tax on their ballots. The Rules Committee made several changes to the measure, including a provision sought by Democrats. In addition to any tax revenue raised through regional votes, the new version of the legislation would take a portion of the state gasoline tax that now goes into the general fund and dedicate that money to transportation projects. Democrats, and not a few Republicans, insisted on having something in the bill that would allow the use of existing tax revenue, a win-win scenario that would allow more funding for transportation without raising taxes. "That should induce more (lawmakers) to vote for the bill who wouldn't have otherwise," said Neill Herring, a lobbyist for the Georgia chapter of the Sierra Club, which supports the legislation as part of a diverse coalition of business and environmental groups and local government leaders. "They can go home and say, 'We're giving you a chance to vote for more money for transportation without a tax increase.'" Herring said the estimated $160 million a year that portion of the gasoline tax would raise would be more than enough to jump-start languishing plans to build two commuter rail lines linking Atlanta with Athens and Lovejoy. An earlier version of the transportation funding legislation passed by the Senate called for dedicating 10 percent of the revenue raised from the regional sales taxes to passenger rail projects. But that provision fell by the wayside when the measure got to the House. While the state Department of Transportation has secured more than $90 million in federal funding to build the Lovejoy line, the project is in limbo because there's no source of money to operate the system. "That pays their operating costs," Herring said of the new transportation funding bill. Because the measure is a constitutional amendment, it will need a two-thirds majority - 120 votes - to pass the House. Johnson said uncertainty over the fate of tax cuts this year could make amassing that much support for transportation funding difficult. He said lawmakers may be reluctant to ask Georgians to approve raising taxes for road and transit projects if those voters don't get an opportunity to roll back other taxes at the same time. But Rep. Donna Sheldon, R-Dacula, said the same uncertainty over tax policy existed when the Senate approved its version of the transportation funding measure last month. "The Senate overwhelmingly passed their transportation bill, so I don't see that the challenges we're having now deciding which tax cut to go with should impact the transportation bill," she said.

Bones in Bulgaria may be of John the Baptist
PARIS– Scientists have found new evidence they say supports the theory that a knuckle bone and other human remains found under a church floor in Bulgaria may be of John the Baptist.
The relics found in a small marble sarcophagus two years ago on a Bulgarian island called Sveti Ivan, which translates as Saint John, also included a human tooth, part of a skull and three animal bones.
A research team from Oxford University dated the right-handed knuckle bone to the first century AD, when John is believed to have lived until his beheading ordered by king Herod, the university said in a statement.
And scientists from the University of Copenhagen analyzed the DNA of the bones, finding they came from a single individual, probably a man, from a family in the modern-day Middle East, where John would have lived.
While these findings do not definitively prove anything, they also don't refute the theory first proffered by the Bulgarian archaeologists who found the remains while excavating under an ancient church on the island.
Many sites around the world claim to hold relics of the saint, including the Grand Mosque in Damascus which says it has his head.
The right hand with which the prophet allegedly baptised Jesus in the River Jordan is also claimed to be held by several entities, including a Serbian Orthodox monastery in Montenegro.
"The result from the metacarpal hand bone is clearly consistent with someone who lived in the early first century AD," Oxford University professor Tom Higham said of the new study.
"Whether that person is John the Baptist is a question that we cannot yet definitely answer and probably never will."
Bulgarian archaeologists had found a small box made of hardened volcanic ash close to the sarcophagus.
The box bore inscriptions in ancient Greek that referred to John the Baptist and the date that Christians celebrate his birth, June 24.
The findings of another Oxford researcher, using historical documents, suggest that the monastery of Sveti Ivan may have received a portion of John the Baptist's relics in the fifth or early sixth centuries.

Aarophat - PANIC!
Artist: Aarophat
Producer: Lex Boogie, cuts by Chinch 33
Album: Invictus
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 6 votes )
Remain calm, Aarophat is not coming for your head. However, I can't say the same for most wack, half-assed emcees, who might be wise to do one thing… and that is PANIC! While found on his Invictus album, which was released last May, the visuals for PANIC! are brand spankin' new. Not that it matters, though, because his sharp, authoritative flow is damn near timeless. The visuals, co-directed by Arophat himself (with some help from D-Flawless), allow viewers to get up close and personal with the Ohio native as he shreds a versatile production from Lex Boogie. The beat, which often alternates between a subtle piano driven section and a swift yet edgy boom-bap inspired vibe, may change, but Aarophat's energetic flow remains steadfast, anchoring this boisterous cut. While this is his first solo feature, Aarophat can be found as a guest on Dynas' Redrum, featured last week.

I am just now getting back into riding after 8 years and feel like I am not doing it just right ! I have two TN Walkers that I have had for like a month maybe but have not rode them yet cause they haven't been ridden in a while and I am waiting on someone with more experience come and check out my babies , but I have started riding with a friend and have been loving it ! I think some of my problem is I can't get my footing right and comfortable and whenever we canter I can feel myself bounce up and down off the seat and feel like I could fall off ! (Thats why I LOVE riding western , I have the "Oh ___" handle as I call it lol ) My son took this video and it's not very good quality because he couldn't hold his hand still, he needs some practice! So if you could please tell me what ya think from what you may be able to see and I will try and get more videos later !

HELOC: home equity line of credit.This type of loan, which became popular in the mid-1980s, is a revolving credit in which your home serves as collateral.
By using the equity you have accumulated in your home, you may qualify for a sizeable amount of credit which you might in turn use for education, medical bills, home improvement or other high-dollar expense.Before taking a home equity loan, be sure you carefully weigh the pros and cons, the costs and the benefits.
With a home equity line of credit, you can use the credit wherever and whenever you choose.While the interest rate is relatively low, be sure you understand the credit terms and that should you fail to repay the amounts you borrowed, you could lose your house.
To determine your credit limit, your lender will determine the appraised value of your house and then subtract from that value the amount you still owe on your existing mortgage.The lender will also consider your credit worthiness by examining your income, credit history and other financial obligations.
Once you've been approved for a home equity line of credit, you will be allowed to borrow up to your credit limit whenever you want.The lender will probably provide you with special checks or a credit card to use when drawing on your line of credit.
Many home equity loan plans set a fixed period, called the "draw period", during which you may borrow money.At the end of this period, for example 10 years, the lender may call for payment in full of any outstanding balance.You may also ask your lender for a repayment plan over a fixed period, so that you do not have to pay the loan in full at one time.
Generally, with a home equity line of credit, the interest rate is variable, rather than fixed.Federal law requires a ceiling on how high your payment can go, and customary usage provides a cap on how low your interest rate may fall if interest rates drop.At some point during the life of the loan, many lenders will allow you to convert from a variable interest to a fixed interest rate for the life of the loan.
Keep in mind that there are upfront expenses in establishing a home equity line of credit.However, because your home serves as collateral, the lender's risk is lower than most other forms of credit, so the annual percentage rates are lower.When repaying your home equity loan, you may choose to pay down the principal regularly as you do with other types of loans.
Establishing a HELOC
If a home equity line of credit is not for you, you might also consider the traditional home equity loan.This type of loan provides you with a fixed amount of money up front with an equal payment schedule.
Before making any decisions, be sure to discuss your options with your local community banker.Your home is one of your most important possessions and you don't want to risk losing it.Ask your community banker to compare your options and help you determine the loan best suited for your needs and ability to repay.

This case comment discusses two recently released Canadian decisions on the enforceability of arbitration clauses from the perspective of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods 1980(CISG). At first glance, the Supreme Court of Canada's decision in GreCon Dimter Inc. v. J.R. Normand Inc. appears to be a case upholding the primacy of international commercial arbitration, choice of forum and choice of law clauses. Upon closer scrutiny, however, the Supreme Court of Canada failed to consider the application of the CISG to the overall dispute. Interestingly, the same choice of forum and choice of law clauses were considered by the United States Court of Appeals a year earlier in GreCon Dimter, Incorporated v. Horner Flooring Company, Incorporated. In either of the Canadian and American GreCon decisions, the parties' (and their respective counsel's) characterization of the legal issues, including jurisdictional arguments, ultimately guided the domestic forum court's jurisprudential analysis. Unlike GreCon v. Horner, choice of forum remained a live issue when it reached the Supreme Court of Canada in GreCon v. Normand. In both cases, the parties' choice of law remained an important, but not exclusive, factor in the domestic court's overall determination of proper forum. In Sonox Sia v. Albury Grain Sales Inc. the Quebec Superior Court also considered the validity of an arbitration clause specifying that all contractual disputes be arbitrated by the ICC in London, UK, with the CISG stipulated as the governing law. Although the reasoning in both Canadian court decisions failed to consider the CISG's provisions, international case law or academic commentaries, perhaps another opportunity awaits for Canada to contribute to the CISG's global jurisconsultorium.

What a terribly glaring oversight on the designer's part.
I did the tutorial for Survival Mode since you can't select Story Mode, finished it, so I decided to check out the latter. "Another tutorial?" I asked myself.
"Maybe the gameplay is different, sure, let's do this."......"Oh no, it's the same fucking thing!"
Got halfway through the second time, said "bullshit, I'm not doing this again," and I quit the tutorial. Turns out I HAVE to do the tutorial a second time.
I turned it off and walked away. I was that irritated. I'll definitely go back to it, but what a stupid way to do things.

NAMPA -- Extra precautions are underway at Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge to protect a family of bald eagles.
A pair of bald eagles started their nest on the north shore of Lake Lowell and to make sure they can raise their family in peace, the area has been closed off.
To see the nest, you're asked to go to an observation platform at the visitors center.
Last year, the pair that nested here raised two eaglets.
We want the eagles to keep coming back every year, and maybe even their young when they are old enough to start breeding, that they will come back to the same nest, said wildlife biologist Addison Mohler.
The closed off area is clearly marked, it will remain that way until the chicks leave the nest, probably in early July.

All our hard work paid off!
Yesterday, I was working on the Theoretical Framework and Conceptual Paradigm for our thesis paper. Our topic is about Panax ginseng Extract as a weight-reducing agent for Obese patients aged 18 to 25.
I used the Ginsenoside Theory, stating that ginsenoside is the active component of ginseng and exhibiting anti-obesity effect. I used the Scope and Delimitation composed by my groupmates, Camille and Marga (thank you girls!)
We submitted the papers to our professor, and thank God he approved our Theoretical Framework, everything. He just instructed us to add more about our subject (who must be included and excluded from the research) and about the methods or procedure to be used in our study.
Thanks also to the hard work of my groupmates! "Very good guys!"
"Thank you Lord! Please continue to help us and the other groups in our Research class. :)"

I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and say that this is the first time A-Rod has ever hit here in GABP.
Travis Wood isn't falling behind but his stuff just isn't very good to get guys out against this lineup. Where is Sam LeCure when you need him??
Honestly Wood just hasn't been very good all year long. Guys hit him well.
Throwing batting practice
Jeez o pete....he may not make it out of the first...
This game may be over before the Reds get to the plate.
He's not spotting the ball well...Tex and ARod got pitches too much over the plate.
Wood is probably gonna be the odd man out when Bailey comes back.
Wood gonna make a pitch to ANYONE tonight?
Rounding third and heading for home...
I think it is a little suspicious that they would push Cueto back. You move your staff ace around to keep Wood on schedule?

Boring to females after first go-round9/13/2012
While the production values are WONDERFUL, I'm afraid that experienced female porn viewers will find the plot/acting/dialogue rather common after the first time you see it--same old male-centered plots, same old fake female orgasms, with the girls wondering how many hours longer they have on the clock (guys probably are, too), etc. They did a good job of capitalizing on the "Pirates of the Caribbean" market with the setting. That said, this is a great price for something that likely won't be your favorite, over time. I am a *little* surprised that they'd put this movie on this site, but then, with all the ridiculousness we're seeing from Republicans these days, nothing should surprise me...
