Hiking - Take time to meander.
Take time to meander - losing yourself in the maze of alleys, streets and lanes is one of the Amersfoort's principal pleasures. The streets wind and wander with no discernible order or object. After our stroll we rewarded ourselves with a cool glass of beer or wine for our effort! We learned that you won´t do justice to the entire city of Amersfoort whenever you won´t visit other parts than just the main sights. So ... do meander, because the cluster of sights around the main square De Hof (main sights) are truly beautiful, but the more secret pleasures of the hushed backstreets are just entrancing.
When strolling through the heart of the city, one can literally sense its history. The lanes of the old town, which lies directly at the foot of the Sint-Joris Church, communicate the feeling of past ages. Splendid town residences and chapter houses are worthy of closer scrutiny, as are some of the more beautiful facades are hidden discretely behind the canals. Moreover, a few small squares with their lively hustle and bustle are never far away. All this may seem very though as finding your way in Amersfoort might be difficult, but in really distances are short and the signs will help you in getting around. Enjoy!

Hiking - Game plan strategy.
Most people try to rush Amersfoort on a budget so they end up missing some of the highlights in a whirlwind. The key to seeing Amersfoort is a game plan, you must know what you want to see before getting out. Before we visited Amersfoort we saw on a city map that the huge city of Amersfoort is divided into three main areas to visit:
* The old ancient city center;
* The residential area around the city center;
* The all new part called Vathorst.
When we visited Amersfoort we only stayed for one day, so our decision was quite simple … we decided to visit the area in and around the old and ancient city center. Our hike was beautiful in the old town, where the village is one huge ancient site in which we could walk for quite some time. It was quite strenuous sometimes, but definitely worth while! While most tour guides don't recommend getting lost in the alley´s, this part of Amersfoort is the place to get hopelessly lost for some time. We wondered off through mysterious and steep alleyways leading us away from the crowds. We ended up at the Mondriaan House, the Muurhuizen (Wall Houses) at the south side, De Hof (main square), the beautiful white houses at the Appelmarkt, mazes of backstreets and deserted gardens. The real Amersfoort?
- Historical Travel
- Hiking and Walking
Hiking - Take a few short-cuts.
But don't sweat it … Amersfoort also has many hundreds of years of history; and nowhere is this more evident than at the city center and its alleys and narrow streets. The compact town of Amersfoort is easy to get around, and the ideal place to explore on foot. Amersfoort is The Netherlands, and yet it is a culture unto itself. The area of Amersfoort shows signs of a dwelling ever since the 1000 B.C. The official name Amersfoort is first documented in a deed from the 11th century. Its beautiful legacy of monuments can be admired in the streets to this day. Time to explore it!
We can honestly state that the best way to explore Amersfoort is by foot and the second best way is also by foot! Besides giving you the opportunity to roam the narrow streets and the cozy squares, it is the quickest way too. If you really want to, you can cross the city in approximately 35 minutes. Remember that sometimes it might be quicker (and nicer!) to take a few short-cuts into picturesque alleys and see some amazing canals, instead of following the masses of tourists. Maybe this is easy for us to say as we knew where to go and not like most of the tourists only visited the main sights. But even when your stay is rather short, do try to get away from the crowds and just have a 'look around'. The city center of Amersfoort is simply a perfect place to walk for a few hours and pretending to know where you are.

- Historical Travel
Walking or Cycling
Amersfoort is ideal to be explored on foot or on bicycle.
A walk along the city walls and the old inner canals and alleys is just wonderful.

Bolt Prospects Sets New Site Traffic Record
It kind of shocked me today to look at our site traffic over the last three days, but Bolt Prospects has received over 9,600 hits in the last 72 hours meaning the site will have roughly 17,000-18,000 hits total this week. Don't know why the sudden spike, because we've been usually at 2,500-3,000 or so hits per 72 hours since the season started, but I like it.

AHL Game Night 12/6: Devils at FalconsSubmitted by pete on December 6, 2006 - 21:38
Time to start a new winning streak.
Karri Ramo allowed 4 goals on 27 shots before being pulled in the third period for Jonathan Boutin who stopped 6 of 6 shots faced. Springfield, for whatever reason, struggled to get into the game in the first two periods and were outshot 26-12 through 40 minutes before putting together a decent third period to get the final total to 33-27, Lowell. Marek Kvapil and Eric Healey scored the Falcons' goals, both on the power play. For Kvapil, it is just his 3rd of the season, which is disappointing. Mike Egener, Andy Delmore, John Adams and Blair Jones had assists.

Genetic Signatures in Lebanon Traced Back to the Crusades
A genetic anthropological study known as The Genographic Project has found what is believed to be faint genetic traces left by medieval crusaders in the Middle East.
The team has uncovered a specific DNA signature in Lebanon that is probably linked to the Christian crusades of the 7th and 8th centuries.
This discovery was noted when researchers found that some Christian men in Lebanon carry a DNA signature originating from Western Europe.
The scientists found that Lebanese Muslim men typically carried a different genetic structure than Christian Lebanese men. This particular structure has been linked to expansions from the Arabian Peninsula which brought Islam to the area.
However, the team emphasized that Christian and Muslim Arabs in Lebanon share a dynamic common heritage and that the differences between the two communities are minor.
Other studies of the genetics of Middle Eastern and North African populations have demonstrated the significant legacy of Muslim Expansion. But evidence of recent European migration to the region is notably unusual.
The Y chromosome (male) was the focus of the study. The package of genetic material carried only by men is passed down from father to son and is left mostly unchanged, much like a surname.
However, over generations, the chromosome accumulates small changes, or copying errors, in its DNA sequence.
Therefore, Y chromosomes are classified into different groups known as haplogroups, which, to some extent, reflect a person's geographical ancestry.
After analyzing the Y chromosomes of 926 Lebanese Males, the scientists discovered that patterns of male genetic variation in Lebanon were more closely related to religious lines than geographical lines.
WES1, a genetic signature on the male chromosome, typically found in European populations, was noted among the Lebanese males used in the study.
"It seems to have come in from Europe and is found mostly in the Christian population," said Dr Spencer Wells, director of the Genographic Project.
"Typically we don't see this sort of stratification by religion when we are looking at the relative proportions of these lineages – and particularly immigration events."
Wells told BBC news that in the same data set a similar enrichment of lineages coming in from the Arabian Peninsula in the Muslim population wasn't seen [as often] in the Christian population.
High frequencies of a Y chromosome grouping known as J1 were found in Lebanese Muslim men""typical of populations originating from the Arabian Peninsula, who were involved in the Muslim expansion.
"The goal of the study was to put some science to the history of this country – which is very rich," said Pierre Zalloua, a co-author on the paper, from the Lebanese American University in Beirut.
"To have these great civilizations – with the Islamic expansion and the migration from Europe – coming to Lebanon, leaving not only their genes but also some of their culture and way of life, it can only make us feel richer," said Zalloua.
The Genographic Project is a five-year genetic anthropology study that aims to map historical human migration patterns by collecting and analyzing DNA samples from hundreds of thousands of people from around the world.
The company also sells self-testing kits from which a mouth swabbing is obtained, analyzed and the DNA information placed on a web accessible database.

Governments planning to control security tech exports
An international arms control regime is planning to create export controls for some software security tools on the grounds that they might be used for nefarious purposes.
An international arms control regime is planning to classify software and hardware products for hacking and network surveillance and intelligence as "dual use" products which "…may be detrimental to international and regional security and stability." The process will likely lead to export controls on such products.

Raisman finally gets (tie) break, wins beam bronze
nepal Aly Raisman finally caught a break.
Five days after a tiebreak cost Raisman an all-around medal, a tiebreak gave her one back on balance beam.
Raisman questioned her score after initially finishing fourth Tuesday, and judges added an extra tenth to her routine's difficulty after reviewing it. That gave her and Catalina Ponor identical scores of 15.066, but Raisman got the bronze and Ponor got bumped because the American's execution score was higher.
Big grins spread across Raisman's face and that of her coach, Mihai Brestyan, when the revision was announced. She was still smiling when she climbed onto the medals podium. The captain of the Fierce Five now has two medals, and a chance to add a third later Tuesday on floor exercise.
Deng Linlin won the gold on balance beam, upstaging teammate and reigning world champion Sui Lu. It was the second gold of the day for the Chinese, following Feng Zhe's title on parallel bars. Epke Zonderland won gold on high bar, the first medal for a Dutch man and only the second Olympic medal overall for the Netherlands.
Gabby Douglas, meanwhile, failed to add to her medal haul, finishing seventh on balance beam after a fall. Still, she'll leave the games with two gold medals, including the all-around title, gymnastics' biggest prize.
"I'm so happy, going home with two Olympic gold medals and a couple of titles under my belt," Douglas said. "I'm so happy for Aly, she deserves to be up on that podium. She had a great beam routine and I'm so proud of her."
Douglas' life has been a whirlwind since she won the all-around title last week, with media wanting a piece of her and celebs flooding her Twitter timeline, eager to be her new BFF. There was training to fit in, too, with finals on both uneven bars and balance beam. She admitted after Monday's lackluster showing on bars - she was last - that it was all catching up with her.
It wasn't a lack of energy that cost her Tuesday - it was a misplaced foot. Her right foot could only brush the beam as she landed on a leap, and she had no chance to save herself. As the crowd gasped, she fell onto the beam in a straddle, hanging on tight as she swung partly underneath.
"I'm definitely not going to lie. It was definitely hard to regain your focus," Douglas said. "You're like, 'Yes, I'm the Olympic champion. I'm a world champion.' It's definitely kind of hard to turn the chapter for event finals."
On parallel bars, Feng gave the Chinese men their third gymnastics gold medal, following the team competition and Zou Kai's win on floor exercise. And they may not be finished, with Zou still to come on high bar, where he is the reigning world and Olympic champion.
Feng flashed a thumbs-up as he walked out for the medals ceremony, and planted a big kiss on the gold after he got it.

National Park Mystery Photo 11: And What Room Might This Be?
OK, this is probably too easy, but the image was just too unique not to get it into the Traveler in some fashion.
Correctly answer where in the National Park System this can be found -- extra points for the specific location -- and we'll spot you two correct answers on Professor Bob's next quiz.
Minute man missile National Historic site. Launch control center Delta-01
Pretty darn good, Djjefffrey100. We'll have to dock you a couple of points for careless spelling, though. It's Minuteman Missile National Historic site.
Methinks this was an inside job, Bob. Could Djjeffrey100 have been, or currently is, a missileer?
I doubt that he's a missileer, Kurt. Heck, I seriously doubt that he even knows how to spell the word. :0)
If I'd known the answer, I would have been tempted to sign in as Strangelove or Gen. Jack D. Ripper.
Now wait a minute guys. In my own defense I got excited and added a space in Minuteman. Cut a guy some slack. I visited this site 2 years ago and was just a little quick with the enter button. Watch as I now take my time.
The Minuteman Missile National Historic Site.
See I can do it.
I told Bob you wouldn't take kindly to his comment....;-)
That said, darn good memory, Djjeffrey100. To have visited two years ago and nail it right down to which launch control center was depicted is pretty impressive!
Thank you. It's all good.
Well done, Djjeffrey100. You are forgiven.

Jeffrey began his career in horology as a watchmaker specializing in the restoration of vintage timepieces. He became particularly fascinated with the history of early American wrist and pocket watch manufacturing, from back in the day when American companies dominated the field. When Nashan's interests went beyond simple restoration and into the areas of design and manufacture he founded The Montana Watch Company and began what has become a passion to create truly unique, heirloom timepieces inspired by the designs of the early American watchmakers. As an avid sportsman Jeffrey enjoys everything that the great outdoors of Montana has to offer.
Tamara joined the Montana Watch Company team in 2011 and particularly enjoys the travel aspect of her position, and the opportunity it brings to see new places, meet new people, and build working relationships with Montana Watch Company's interesting and distinguished clientele. A passionate horsewoman, Tamara is happiest outside. Working cattle is a family heritage passed from Tamara's Grandfather, a long-time Montana Cattle Rancher, and is a tradition she enjoys pursuing with her family, most often along side the Nashan Family. An aspiring novelist, Tamara's interest in horses and ranching also serves as inspiration in her work as a writer.
Although Melanie has been involved with The Montana Watch Company since its inception in 1998, since 2011 she has been working with Jeffrey on the day-to-day operations of the business, also working individually with clients on our most challenging commissions to ensure that every detail is correct and that the client receives the timepiece of their dreams. Melanie is a professional wedding photographer and has traveled around the world creating family histories for her clients. http://nashan.com/ In her spare time Melanie loves to travel and spend time with her family anywhere there is white sand and an ocean.
Bailey began working in March of 2014, and she enjoys every aspect of the creative process. Her favorite part of custom watchmaking is when all of the completed pieces that convene in our Livingston, Montana studio for assembly transform into an heirloom. Bailey grew up in Montana loving the outdoors; camping, hunting, fishing, bike riding, hiking and attending rodeos are some favorite activities. When winter arrives, she can be found perusing her passion for the textile arts or curled up with her husband and dogs in front of a good movie.
Keegan has grown up inside the Montana Watch Company and over the years has gained experience in every aspect, including watchmaking. As of late Keegan has taken a keen interest in marketing the brand, with a particular focus in the online arena. Her passion for horology stems from her father's enthusiasm and dedication. In addition to her role as a full time student, Keegan loves travel, and has visited over 15 countries through out South and Central America, Europe and Africa. When not traveling, she can be found hiking in Yellowstone National Park, floating the river and dancing under the stars.

The dust has not settled on the reform of Florida's Growth Management laws and already things are looking up for Florida land development. Bayfront 2011, a subsidiary of Genting Malaysia Berhad, has just announced that it has purchased 13.9 acres in the heart of downtown Miami for $236 million.
These foreign investors are planning on assisting in bringing even more tourist dollars into South Florida by building Resorts World Miami, a mixed-use development that will include a hotel, restaurants, shops, convention facilities, and other entertainment and commercial venues.
Short Term and Long Term Economic Benefits from Foreign Investment
Short term, Miami will benefit from all the construction jobs that this new undertaking will require. Plumbers, welders, HVAC experts, bricklayers, and other subcontractors will benefit in the upcoming months, and later there will be all sorts of jobs for workers in the hotel, the shops, the cafes.
Another long term benefit: the development will attract tourists from all over the world to our local community - to spend their money, and thereby boost our economy.

DALLAS The Facebook phenomenon is a good way to keep up with friends, but Dallas police say it's time to keep up with its officers who go online.
If you are identifying yourself in any way on your site as a police officer, then there shouldn't be inappropriate images placed on that site, explained Deputy Chief Randy Blankenbaker.
A Dallas officer had images of herself in a G-string on her site, and there were also crime scene photos that Dallas officers have placed on their Web sites.
What we are doing here is trying to provide them with a framework so that they know what they should and shouldn't post in order to prevent them from getting into a position where their character as a police officer is questioned, Blankenbaker said.
Similar postings in other cities have led to officers being fired like one in which scantily-clad women were on a squad car. The officer involved thought it was cute.
His supervisors didn't agree, and therein lies the problem.
We have we have to balance that with a sense they are in the public domain, Blankenbaker said.
Social media is a delicate balance between freedom of speech, private lives, and public jobs and the Dallas Police Department hopes its new policy will tilt that balance towards credibility.
The main provision of the policy would forbid officers from taking pictures at crime scenes and then e-mailing them to each other.
Dallas police aren't against social media. The department has its own Facebook page that has more than 4,300 followers.

Following Silver's Money
Tuesday, July 15, 2014
Assembly speaker Sheldon Silver disclosed that he earned between $650,000 and $750,000 from his law firm in 2013, almost double the prior year's pay. Editor Michael Aronson explains the Daily News' efforts to follow the revelations regarding Silver's income.
Guests:Michael Aronson
Comments [21]
If anyone could get on NY's ballots by just paying a fee, then the whole party-bosses-controlled system might be replaced by more honest citizen candidates.
Given choices, who would vote for the professional crooks of the Party Bosses?
Similar petition barriers keep insurgents within the parties from challenging the party bosses.
Michael Aronson - concerning Stop and Frisk vs. this year's shooting count, how is it "good science" to let the wolf (Bratton) investigate the hen-house killings??? You have excellent investigative reporters on staff -- give this to Juan Gonzalez and get a REAL answer, not more self-serving propaganda from above...
NY's barriers to an independent candidate (such as Libertarian Party) being on the ballot:
1500 to 15000 (depending on office) valid witnessed signatures on a confusing petition.
All signatures must be collected in 6 weeks, after July 4, and submitted before the end of August, when many voters are away on vacation. It's hard to wear a dignified suit in the sun in the hottest part of the year.
The big parties have already had their petition period, requiring fewer signatures. If you signed one of their petitions, you can't sign the Libertarian petition.
Any voter may Object to the petitions. Several party hacks will file objections to an insurgent candidate, whom the party boss really fears.
The Bi-Partisan Board Of Elections (run by an appointee of the Democrat Party Boss and an appointee of the Republican Party Boss) decides if there is a fatal technical flaw in your petitions. Some boards don't even specify what the flaw is.
You have 3 days, from the Decision, to prepare and file a lawsuit against the Board, and serve a copy on the Board and all the Objectors. Board employees won't tell you when the decision has been made, and will mail the decision at 6 PM, in hope to delay its arrival at least 2 days.
Your Judge relies on the party bosses to re-nominate him at the end of his 7-year term. Often a Judge will use any technical flaw to disqualify your candidacy (so as not to displease his Party Boss?). Courts have delayed acceptance of the suit in an attempt to thwart your timely service on the many party objectors.
Experienced election lawyers are too expensive for some independent candidates. Such election lawyers work mostly for the Parties, so there is likely a conflict.
Appeals Court judges also rely on party bosses to re-nominate them at the end of 7-year terms.
NY has more election litigation than any other state. Many elections have only one candidate.
NJ only requires a small ballot fee, and does not have a "confusingly crowded" ballot.
Why do we keep voting for these people?
The petition process for getting on the ballot is is designed to protect the party Bosses who control the system.
Legal work isn't necessarily in the courtroom (the way the promo made it sound)--a lot of it is in the office.
And wouldn't it be more of a problem is Spkr. Silver were doing private legal work & *not* reporting the income? I'm not exactly a fan of his, but I don't get why this is such a big deal.
@ john from office
His "income from Case referrals"? Are you kidding? The Grey Ghost is not referring out cases to W&L. I know plenty of people who worked at W&L (they employed thousands of law students over the years for doc review) and Silver doesn't do anything there except pick up checks. Their marketing budget is huge, they hired Erin Brockovitch for their commercials, remember? Their referrals come from smaller law firms across the country for asbestos/toxic tort biz, not Silver.
Term Limits ???
I wouldn't trust Sheldon Silver as far as I could throw him.
So-called "tort reform" is a GOP scam to cut corporate costs and liability, to put a cap on damages people can recover for injuries suffered due to others' negligence. If, unfortunately, you had a horrible, life-changing injury and you required round-the-clock nursing care but your damages were limited, by legislation, to $1 million even though the care you need would cost $10 million, how would you manage? Would you be happy to get MUCH less than you NEED so the negligent party could avoid paying more for insurance? I think not.
This Brian is why the 1% run this state/country/world
Lets all just face the facts
His income from case referals is totally legal, what is it with the tone of voice??, Is he sitting in shadows?? All we need is organ music.
If I go to my legislator with a problem, should he/she be funneling me and my concerns to a for profit law firm?
Silver is untouchable, he pulls the handles and pushes the buttons. Don't believe me? Wait, this will all go away very soon...
What's wrong with this? It's legal and he hasn't done anything wrong. It's just conspiratorital heavy breathing, a right-wing hit job. Pathetic.
What's wrong with this? It's legal and he hasn't done anything wrong. It's just conspiratorital heavy breathing, a right-wing hit job. Pathetic.
Mr. Silver has used our tax money to pay off his sycophants accused of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and much worse.
He's been in power for.... Yet the sheep keep electing him. Is it shocking that his hands are in the till? Allegedly.
Until we have open primaries or term limits; democracy in our state is a joke.
it's amazing that someone with the skeletons in his closet gets voted in decade after decade - though this is NY and we have a history of voting unsavory people back in to office. Does anyone read a paper anymore or do they just pull the levers for fun?
Silver stopped votes on partial birth abortion in the late 1990s, and the World Trade Center was in his district. Recently most lawmakers were for tuition tax credits for people who contribute to Catholic (and other) schools, 21 other states have it. Silver was against it and it wasn't in the budget. (See Cardinal's Dolan's online commercial.)
Please discuss not only Silver's $700,000 income from W&L, but that Weitz & Luxenburg sues Silver's CONSTITUTENTS (!!!) in the state and the city for millions of dollars EVERY YEAR in their money-printing personal injury gig.
Duh, that's their niche.
Silver has supported/sponsored legislation to give free reign for his REAL EMPLOYERS to relentlessly sue his taxpayer voters and the city/state hospitals for mega-bucks. What dupes! Please reveal the numbers of W&L awards each year from the cases against the state.
ALL of the DEMOCRATS are in the trial lawyers' pockets - Silver is just arrogant and shameless in his audacious openness.

AI Servo vs. AI Focus - what's the key difference?
Started Jan 28, 2013 | Discussions thread
Veteran Member • Posts: 4,931
The easiest way to remember is: AI Servo works, AI Focus does not. I have never found a body in which AI Focus worked reliably. Best advice is to simply avoid it and stick to One Shot and AI Servo - they both work as advertised.

Latest Pacific Fishery Management Council Stories
Federal fisheries managers announced on Wednesday that California's commercial chinook salmon fishing season will be called off again after a record low number of fish returned to spawn last year.
The Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC), which will meet in San Diego November 3-7 to vote on a preferred alternative for an Individual Quota system, released a report detailing potential impacts of an unbalanced plan.
By Winston Ross, The Register-Guard, Eugene, Ore. Jun. 13--West Coast groundfishermen can expect a major change in the way they're allowed to catch fish in the coming years, after a preliminary decision Thursday from the Pacific Fishery Management Council.
Key advisers pushed Tuesday for a near-complete closure of the Pacific Ocean salmon fishery off the Oregon and California coasts, leaving room only for extremely limited commercial trolling and sportfishing.
By Teresa Carson PORTLAND, Oregon (Reuters) - Federal regulators recommended on Friday severely scaling back salmon fishing this year along most of the Oregon and Northern California coastline to preserve shrinking Chinook salmon populations.
Federal regulators voted Thursday to severely restrict salmon fishing off the coasts of Oregon and Northern California this summer to protect dwindling populations in the Klamath River.
Federal regulators are preparing to vote on a plan to protect deep water corals and other sensitive fish habitat that will likely include a permanent ban on bottom trawling in large tracts of the Pacific Ocean.

Photo of the Week: A Salute to Mothers
May 08, 2014
In honor of Mother's Day, TechnoServe recognizes the critical role that mothers play in lifting families out of poverty.
Like Like many mothers working in rural areas, Mariama Tijani carries her baby on her back as she harvests maize in central Ghana.
Mothers make the world go round. TechnoServe knows that mothers are the key to ending poverty. That's why we've made engaging and benefiting women a key priority in our strategic plan.
We work every day with mothers who are committed to creating a better life for their families. These are women like Achissalia Alifa, who started her first formal job in order to better provide for her five children in northern Mozambique. Or Fatima del Rosario Estrada, who is able to feed her family a healthier diet thanks to a thriving farmer cooperative in her Nicaraguan town. Or the employees of Paper Craft Africa, a crafts business in Kampala, Uganda, that's providing economic opportunities to single mothers.
This Mother's Day, we salute the hard work of mothers across the world.

Bagged a degree in English
But proficient in
from Das Racist – Puerto Rican Cousins Lyrics on Genius
Vic brags about having a degree in English, meaning that he can write well but then he goes on to say he's can talk slang and rap well too. Hence 'blackanese'.
But he uses blackanese to rhyme with Japanese in the next line. Also may be a somewhat comic line considering that Das Racist is sometimes seen as a race oddity.

Supreme Court grants four weeks to file response
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday issued notice to the Tamil Nadu government on a special leave petition against a Madras High Court judgment upholding the takeover of 38 acres of land given on lease to the Agri Horticultural Society on Radhakrishnan Salai in Chennai.
A vacation Bench of Justice C.K. Thakker and Justice L.S. Panta granted four weeks for the government to file its response and three weeks thereafter for filling rejoinder, if any, and directed the matter to be listed for further hearing in August. The Bench recorded an undertaking from the government that the character of the land would not be altered in the meantime. Senior counsel U.R. Lalit, appearing for petitioner V. Krishnamurthy, secretary of the society, sought a direction that the government which had taken over the lands (where Hotel Woodlands was functioning) should not change the character of the land.
When the Bench was inclined to pass this interim order, senior counsel Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for the State, requested the court not to pass any such order. He said the government had planned to make this land into a botanical garden and tenders had been invited for this purpose. He said the administrative process on finalisation of tender would go on but no final decision would be taken on it till the next date of hearing.
Justice Thakker told the counsel "if [you] don't agree to maintain the status quo with regard to the character of the land, we will pass an order to that effect." Mr. Singhvi said "the status quo with regard to the character of the land will be maintained."
The Bench while recording the undertaking gave liberty to the petitioner's counsel to file an application (before August) if there was any difficulty. Mr. Lalit alleged that the only reason for the takeover was that the petitioner (Mr. Krishnamurthy) was close to the AIADMK leader Jayalalithaa.
He said while a single judge had quashed the show cause notice, a division bench had set aside the order on the ground that the petitioner had violated the lease conditions (by letting it to Hotel Woodlands).
Mr. Singhvi said though the government had passed an order for taking possession of the lands in 1989, it could not develop the land because of court proceedings. He said after the High Court judgment (dated April 11) the government had invited tenders to develop this land into a botanical garden and a research centre. The SLP alleged that the orders of resumption of lands were politically motivated.

A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are.
Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human - and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.
Please note: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material, including endnotes, will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.
A Note from Hachette Audio
We are deeply honored to be the audio publisher of David Foster Wallace's works, and are keenly aware of the great responsibility that attends the privilege. We felt that it was important to make Infinite Jest accessible in the audio format as soon as we were able, and are gratified to find that there is an audience that has been waiting for just this occasion.
Some early listeners have been disappointed that the novel's endnotes are currently available only in text form, to be read. Choosing to include the endnotes as a downloadable PDF file, rather than as a recording by the narrator, was a difficult decision for all involved, and we debated different options at length before beginning production. The audio format allows us great opportunities to showcase Wallace's love of language and grammatical dexterity, to illuminate characters and their relationships, and to bring out some of the unique humor inherent in his wo...

Appenzellerland, Switzerland, the land of happy cows
In Appenzellerland in north-east Switzerland, cows graze quietly on rolling hills and get daily massages. And the beef dishes are excellent.
Published on Apr 27, 2014 6:19 PM
It took two whole days in Appenzellerland before I noticed the calming silence.
"How come the cows here don't moo?" I finally asked my guide Alfonso Llopert in the lush, beautiful, hilly region in north-east Switzerland.
"Because the cows have no complaints. They're all very happy here," he replied.
He is joking, of course, but it is not implausible.

I have a much better tools more advanced nowadays for pinhole photography. Im not going to publish any picks of those because tomorrow the whole Beijing is going to rip me off and file pinhole cameras in their celery and sell my design back to you and tell you that their creativity has no limit! Yes because they are stealing your underwear if they got a chance! So all the information you need to know is on the pictures. The shutter works as the Swiss watch! I think Leonardo would have loved this!


text: The The Case Of The Curious Costume wiki last edited by TheTrueBarryAllen on 01/08/15 03:20PM View full history The Case Of The Curious CostumeEn route to his wedding, police forensics scientist, Barry Allen, spies a turtle moving at super-human speed. Allen pursues the turtle, as the Flash. Astonishingly, the turtle outpaces the Flash. Pouring on the speed, the Flash feels himself tearing through inter-dimensional space. The Flash materializes on a strange world. One where all of it's inhabitants possess super-human speed. Returning to Earth, the Flash discovers that, while he was only on the alien world for two minutes, five hours have elapsed on Earth. His bride-to-be, Picture News reporter, Iris West, is furious that Allen has stood her up at the altar. West breaks up with Allen, vowing to never see him again. Allen's crushing heartbreak leaves him feeling lonely and despondent.Allen blames his alter-ego, the Flash, for ruining his relationship with West. Allen nails his Flash costume to a tree, and leaves a sign declaring his intention to retire his Flash identity. As Allen walks away, tears seem to stream down the eye-holes of the costume's mask. Allen tracks down West, at an isolated mountain retreat. Seeing West menaced by a large bear, Allen intervenes. Refusing to use his super-speed, Allen is viciously beaten down by the bear. The bear turns out to be a retired, runaway circus performer, and thus Allen is not unduly injured. West is not happy to see Allen. Having transferred her affections to the Flash, Allen finds that he is his own rival. Allen's Flash costume is discovered, then placed on display at the Flash Museum.Near closing time, Allen stands alone before his Flash costume. Incredibly, he seems to hear the costume speaking to him, begging him to resume his career as the Flash. Allen even believes he sees tears pouring from the eye-holes of the mask. Giving in to the inevitable, Allen dons his Flash costume once more. Suddenly, Allen realizes that he isn't alone, and turns to see West standing behind him. To make matters worse, a gang of thugs enters and takes West hostage. The Flash easily beats down the would-be thieves, planting a kiss on West's lips as he does so. West stands transfixed, believing herself hypnotized into thinking that Allen really was the Flash. Dismissing the evidence of her own eyes, West resumes her romance with Allen, still not knowing that he is, in fact, the Flash. The Mirror With 20-20 Vision!By accident, the Mirror Master creates a mirror that reflects 20 seconds into the future. Testing the reflection, the Mirror Master finds that no action can change the future reflected in the mirror. The Mirror Master steals Cleopatra's Mirror from the Petty Art Gallery. When the Flash inevitably arrives to capture the Mirror Master, he finds himself holding the fading remnants of a reflection. A second encounter goes no better. Once again the Mirror Master successfully completes a crime, and escapes, leaving behind another mirror image for the Flash.Using his Cosmic Treadmill, the Flash races three days into the future. Discovering the Mirror Master's hideout, the Flash attacks the his old foe. The Mirror Master, though, has already seen the Flash coming, in his future reflecting mirror. The Mirror Master gets the drop on the Flash, and seemingly vaporizes him. The Mirror Master has barely any time to gloat over his victory, when he hears the Flash's voice behind him. The Scarlet Speedster quickly destroys the future reflecting mirror, then beats the living daylights out of the Mirror Master.In an interview with Picture News reporter, Iris West, the Flash reveals how he triumphed over the Mirror Master. As the Mirror Master fired upon him, the Flash ceased the internal vibrations keeping him three days in the future, and immediately returned to the present. The Flash then waited the three days, to secretly return to the Mirror Master's lair. After watching himself seemingly be killed by the Mirror Master, the Flash stepped in and defeated his old foe. Back at the Petty Art Gallery, the Flash, as Allen, tells West that he can see a future image of himself, in Cleopatra's Mirror, kissing West. Before West can protest, Allen fulfills his future.

During the fall 1996 Call to Renewal tour, we had the opportunity to speak

Traveling across the country during the 1996 Presidential campaign, I saw almost no yard signs or bumper stickers with the names of the presidential nominees on them.
I'm beginning this column at about 30,000 feet, en route to Akron, Ohio. We're doing the Who Speaks for God?
I especially remember one visit among many to Sojourners by Henri Nouwen.
In deciding whether or not to sign the Republican welfare bill, Bill Clinton faced the most serious moral test of his presidency.
How political fortunes change.
The spiritual challenge of building a new politics.
An interview with Sen. Mark Hatfield.

After the 1992 riots following the first Rodney King verdict, I joined a delegation of international church leaders to Los Angeles.
