Telugu Desam president N. Chandrababu Naidu was feeling so depressed that the BJP had let him down by not cooperating with him in stalling the introduction of the bifurcation bill, that he almost wept during his interaction with the media here on Wednesday.
Mr. Naidu, who had earlier inched towards the BJP, has now said he will go by public mood in forging an electoral alliance with the party. Mr. Naidu's press conference was held shortly after N. Kiran Kumar Reddy stepped down as Chief Minister.
He will finalise the action plan after the conclusion of Parliament on Friday. "But who will undo the damage (now that the Bill is passed in Lok Sabha)," he remarked with a sense of remorse. The TDP president expressed dismay that the national parties had ignored him because he did not have the numbers to influence the course of the Bill. He said he had unsuccessfully explained to the BJP leadership that the party must reject the Bill. "How did the BJP allow powers for the Governor to handle law and order in Hyderabad without a Constitutional amendment?" he asked.

Singer/songwriter Stacy Clark is a self-promoting machine. When she's not chillin' at the Irvine Spectrum, grabbing coffee and walking off a Corner Bakery lunch, she's out working on her music career. Clark moved to Newport Beach from Buffalo, N.Y., four years ago. She left her home, family and friends, to come to California and pursue music.
Performing all over Southern California, Clark has opened for Jack's Mannequin, Copeland and The New Amsterdams. She's received local acclaim in 2007 when she took home the best female performer award from The Orange County Music Awards. Clark also earned honors from other music award shows including the Inland Empire Music Awards, Southern California Music Awards and the Toronto Independent Music Awards.
In late 2007 she released the full-length album "Apples & Oranges," a mix of indie rock and electronica coupled with Clark's honest and sweet lyrics. She unapologetically wears her heart on her sleeve. Her lyrics come from a deep, personal place: "You Make it Worse" was written after her grandmother passed away and she realized who her true friends were. "Peppermint Patties," Clark says, is a song about "wanting the things that you know are bad for you, whether it be boys or chocolate."
"Apples & Oranges" also features guest vocals from a few of Clark's friends, Tom Higgenson of the Plain White T's, Tim Pagnotta of Sugarcult, and Aaron Marsh of Copeland.
She managed to get her record into the hands of some TV network executives and as a result, three of her songs have been featured on TV shows: "Empty Bottles" and "Say What You Want" were featured on MTV's "The Hills" and "Unusual" was featured on an episode of the CW's show "Girlfriends."
Clark is currently gigging locally as much as possible, doing a free show at Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa on May 27, and hitting up the open-mic night at La Cave in Costa Mesa on Tuesday nights in June. She's also working on setting up shows and blood drives with Music Saves Lives, a charity she helped found and is the official spokeswoman for.
Clark found a few minutes between Corner Bakery, coffee, work and music to chat via phone about what she's up to.
OCR: Who are some of your musical influences?
Clark: John Lennon, well the Beatles, I wouldn't want the rest of them to feel left out, but mostly Lennon. Also: Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos, Jewel, Fiona Apple, and Stevie Nicks. Stevie is incredible, just her songs and the way she carries herself and I look at her career overall and the longevity of it and I really respect her.
Her songs are eternal and that's why I put people like her, John Lennon, Tom Petty, James Taylor ad Bob Dylan on a pedestal because their songs are amazing and it's not manufactured. They worked on and wrote those songs themselves. I have such respect for actual, real artists.
OCR: What's it like for you to share your most personal thoughts with everyone?
Clark: There are always periods of life when you're like "oh life sucks," it's those beautiful letdowns that give birth to something else. It's hard because you write these songs and every time you play them you feel the emotions again. It's like being in therapy every night, but its tough love, and sometimes you just want to go on auto pilot, but you can't.
OCR: How do you get out there and promote yourself?
Clark: I do a lot of different things and do a lot of marketing for my music. I think the thing that separates me from a lot of musicians is that a lot of people want the career, but they don't work for it. I have a band and we play a lot of shows and if we're not playing shows, I'm out playing acoustic sets, I'm constantly writing, I'm working on my next record now and promoting "Apples & Oranges" heavily and any opportunity I have to promote my music, I get out there and I do it.
The record came out in November and it's for sale on iTunes and through my Web site (stacyclark.net) and basically when people order it from the site, I'm the one stuffing the envelope, adding a poster, putting on the stamp and going to the post office. I'm totally do-it-yourself from beginning to end.

ActionView International, Inc. Announces Rule Changes and Rebranding of MatchFights Product as 'Championship Full Contact'
MURRIETA, Calif., Oct. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — ActionView International, Inc. (Pink Sheets: AVEW) and its wholly owned MatchFights, LLC subsidiary today announced changes to the rules governing its mixed martial arts product. To better reflect these rules changes, MatchFights will rebrand its product as "Championship Full Contact" and will showcase its live events broadcast over the Internet from a new website: www.FullContactLive.com.
The new website, which will also be the focus of expanded marketing and promotions efforts, is expected to be launched in the next several days. MatchFights events are broadcast live in high definition to a worldwide audience over the Internet and revenue is derived from pay-per-view buys.
The single biggest difference between the product being offered by Championship Full Contact and traditional mixed martial arts is that Championship Full Contact has effectively eliminated the tap out as a means to end a fight. Rather than allow fights to dissolve into protracted grappling matches and then end in an arm bar or rear choke, Championship Full Contact rules encourage creative and effective striking – style clearly preferred by most fight fans. When Championship Full Contact fights go to the ground, the referees will have explicit instructions that once strikes stop being thrown or the action gets boring, the fighters will be stood back up. A fighter may tie his opponent up or submit as a defensive move, but the result will be that the referee stands them both up and the fight continues.
Additionally, Championship Full Contact professional fights will consist of seven rounds of two minutes each. Combining this change with the elimination of the tap out, it is expected that Championship Full Contact fights will be fast and furious and filled with striking.
Championship Full Contact will retain the interactive features of its Internet broadcasts, which allow subscribers to vote online for the matchups they want to see and then vote for the winners of fights that go the distance. Also being retained is the interactive online chat feature during the live event, and the new site will fans can set up their own chat groups.
"We are very happy to introduce our new Championship Full Contact brand and the rules that will govern each contest," commented Gary Nerison, Chairman of ActionView International. "These rules will deliver a product that is a marked change from other MMA products where the longer rounds tend to result in prolonged periods of inactivity either because fighters are circling each other or lying on the ground catching their breath. We anticipate that these changes will result in more fights that either end in a knockout or go the distance – where our viewers can vote for the winner.
"The net result of these changes is that Championship Full Contact will be the fastest paced and action packed fight product available to fans around the world. We believe that once our style is seen by viewers, the popularity of our broadcasts will grow and pay-per-view buys will increase for each event.
"Because we set aside ten percent of our pay-per-view proceeds as the fighters' purse, we expect that very shortly, our fighters will become among the highest paid in the industry. This will attract the very best MMA fighters to our events, and, by taking the focus off the grappling game, we look forward to attracting fighters from more traditional martial arts where effective striking is showcased."
A complete set of Championship Full Contact rules will be posted at www.fullcontactlive.com where interested fighters may also fill out an application.
The company encourages shareholders and anyone interested in following the progress of ActionView International and its wholly owned MatchFights, LLC subsidiary to subscribe to the mailing list at www.matchfights.com.
About ActionView International, Inc.
ActionView International has completed its acquisition of MatchFights, LLC, which is now the focus of the company's operations. MatchFights, LLC and its Championship Full Contact property deliver live, high-definition, pay-per-view events, including no-holds-barred, full contact fights, in an interactive venue over the Internet to a global audience. The live events will have broad appeal and include elements of fighting, music, ring girl contests, and other live entertainment as part of the broadcast.

With doubt, frustration and rumors of team infighting surrounding the floundering New York Knicks, stars Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire both say their partnership can still be a success. From the NY Post: "Amar'e Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony had a talk about how to coexist more productively, and they agreed neither has to take a back seat to the other. They both can excel. 'We have been talking, talked a little bit [Sunday] night, talked more this morning about how we both can dominate the game on both ends of the court,' Stoudemire said. 'Carmelo's a phenomenal player. He wants to win. It definitely will get better as a unit and as a team for sure.' After the Knicks' sixth straight loss, to the Nuggets Saturday night in double overtime, Anthony went on a reflective rant, saying 'maybe' he has to shoot less and get Stoudemire the ball more. Stoudemire's scoring average is down to 17.6 points from last season's 25.3. Apparently, Stoudemire told Anthony he has to be himself,

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
My Rating
The trip was amazing. We loved the catamaran ride, cruising along with a rum and coke in hand. Saona Island was good. Walk along to the right of the beach for less people. The BBQ'd chicken was fantastic! The speedboat trip on the way back was great. All in all a great day out and worth the money. Saved over £200 booking via Viator instead of our holiday reps, Thompson.

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Marquis D. Foreman, PhD, RN, FAAN (University of Illinois at Chicago College of Nursing)
Description: This is a book of basic geriatric nursing content.
Purpose: According to the author, the intent is to provide a guide to basic bedside care of the older client from a health promotion perspective.
Audience: The target audience is licensed practical or vocational nurses (LPNs/LVNs).
Features: The book consists of 15 chapters organized around five units: the role of the nurse, four chapters; promoting physical health, seven chapters; promoting psychosocial health, one chapter; special challenges, two chapters; and leadership/management skills, one chapter. Each of the chapters is organized by objectives, an outline, and a list of undefined key terms. Each chapter opens with a case study, and various tips are scattered throughout the chapters. Three appendixes also are included.
Assessment: Although well intended, this book is a major disappointment as the content has been oversimplified to the point of being factually incorrect. As a result, this book only serves to perpetuate negative myths about aging and the aged.

Wear a kayak - sit in a canoe
Posted by: willi_h2o on Jan-28-13 8:50 AM (EST)
-- Last Updated: Jan-28-13 8:52 AM EST --
I was under the impression that a kayak is
supposed to fit you and react to your body
movements from toes to head.
Quite similar to a canoe with a saddle to kneel
upon and use your body to control maneuverability.
A big-flat-floating-platform defeats that concept
of paddling with any skill, diluting the sport.
I call them Fishing Platforms - not kayaks.

Hopes Quickly Fade For a Postpartisan Era
Idealists once looked at this presidential campaign, between two candidates who fancy themselves as free of conventional party ties, and thought it might produce the election that finally pulls Washington out of the deep rut of partisan divisiveness it fell into in the 1990s.
Today, three weeks before Election Day, it sure doesn't look that way.
Vote & Discuss
If it were Election Day today, who do you think would win? Cast your vote in the Question of the Day.
Instead, partisan animosity is growing rather than waning. Democrats charge, essentially, that the McCain campaign is engaging in character assassination against their candidate, Barack Obama. The Republican National Committee says it is spending $2 million to beef up security at campaign offices because of acts of vandalism and "violent intimidation tactics" by Obama supporters. Campaign rallies are turning ugly; charges of racism are starting to appear.
Pollster Peter Hart has found some startling new evidence of high tensions. In surveying voters over the weekend, Mr. Hart found that more than a third of each candidate's supporters say they have grown to "detest" either John McCain or Sen. Obama so deeply that they would have a hard time accepting the one they don't support as president.
"How do you knit a nation back together with this kind of animosity?" asks Mr. Hart, who co-directs the Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.
Some of the tension now being seen is, of course, natural in the final days of an important and hard-fought campaign. Still, the atmosphere is a far cry from what once seemed possible, perhaps even likely, this year.
At the outset of Campaign 2008, part of the appeal of Sens. Obama and McCain was that they presented themselves as unconventional presidential contenders who could break out of the partisan patterns that have come to grip Washington.
Sen. Obama portrayed himself explicitly as a "postpartisan" candidate not trapped in the baby boomer right-left debate that sometimes seemed to consume a Congress led by Republican Newt Gingrich and a White House led by President Bill Clinton.
Sen. McCain was the now-fabled "maverick" whose biggest congressional achievements included legislation molded in partnership with liberal Sens. Ted Kennedy and Russell Feingold. His best friend on the campaign appeared to be a Democrat, Sen. Joseph Lieberman.
So what happened?
Sen. Obama has campaigned as a fairly conventional Democrat. Meanwhile, the revelation of the sermonizing by his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and Sen. Obama's own summertime remark about "bitter" voters clinging to guns and religion opened a divide between him and some blue-collar voters.
Meanwhile, Sen. McCain virtually dropped his nonpartisan pitch for much of the campaign, veering right to win the nomination, and then flirting with but rejecting the ultimate dramatic statement of naming a Democrat, Sen. Lieberman, as his running mate.
Battleground States
Read more about Ohio, Florida, Virginia, North Carolina and other key battlegrounds of the 2008 election.
Most important, in the past two weeks the McCain campaign has turned up the rhetoric against Sen. Obama, virtually calling him a traitor because of his association with William Ayers, former leader of the Weather Underground, a radical group responsible for bombing government buildings in the early 1970s. The tactic has pulled the political debate back toward those Vietnam-era divides that have colored politics for the past generation. Monday, Sen. McCain seemed to want to step away from that approach, declaring: "I respect Sen. Obama, we will conduct a respectful race and be sure everyone else does too."
Meanwhile, though, the rest of the political establishment undertook its own slide backward into partisan division, with Congress turning the rescue package for financial markets into exactly what nobody wanted: a partisan football.
None of this bodes particularly well for bipartisanship after the election. In fact, it's starting to appear that the only way for Washington to overcome partisan divides may be if one party -- the Democrats, in this case -- wins by such commanding margins that it can overpower the other party.
That might be good for efficiency, but it would be bad for building the kind of national consensus that's desirable to overcome the enormous economic challenges the nation will face after Nov. 4. Building entirely new economic institutions, and figuring out how to pay for hundreds of billions of dollars in rescues and bailouts, are the kinds of enterprises best undertaken with broad bipartisan majorities, not narrow partisan ones.
This isn't a good year to again elect a president whom a sizable chunk of voters somehow consider illegitimate. That may make for good autumn sport, but it's discouraging for anyone who thought Washington was about to pull out of its divisive partisan ditch.

My wife of 37 years has worn this fragrance our entire married life. She loves it as do I. I relate "sexy" to the fragrance.

I have been wearing Shalimar for some 40 yrs. & always have compliments from men & sometimes even women, so that says something!! It is strong initially, but becomes subtle & has a lovely, sensual, light odor that lasts throughout the day. Evening it is romantic. I prefer the EDT rather than the heavier perfume. Classic perfume.

Haven't worn Shalimar in ages, actually since I was in my early twenties! Didn't want to get the heavier perfume so tried the toilet water and I like it a lot!

Back in college, I learned a term in cinematography class: Mise-en-scene. To sum it up in short, Mise-en-Scene is everything that goes in front of the camera (or affects it) in that particular scene. It has to do with various elements such as the lighting, costumes, backgrounds, foregrounds, positioning, props, etc. Then it hit me: If film crews put so much effort into storyboarding to make sure that everything is perfect, why don't most photographers apply that same careful effort to photography?

Larry Brown Returns to the Sideline
The Jewish Coaches Association gets its most famous member yet
The Jewish Coaches Association—the group of Jewish college basketball coaches that convenes annually at the Final Four—has lost one of its most prominent members … and gained an even more prominent one. Seth Greenberg, who had an overall winning record with the Virginia Tech Hokies but only got them one NCAA Tournament berth (in 2007, when they lost in the second round), has been let go. He is still the head coach of the U.S. men's team for the Maccabiah Games in Israel next year.
Meanwhile, Southern Methodist University, the Dallas school that hasn't made the Big Dance since '93 but is poised at least to make the leap to the major Big East Conference next year, will now be coached by Larry Brown. He is legitimately one of the greatest coaches of all time. His last year coaching college, in 1988 at Kansas, he was named Coach of the Year and won the national championship. In the NBA, where he led several teams, he also earned Coach of the Year honors (for the Philadelphia 76ers) and won a championship—the only coach to do so at both levels—leading that wonderfully idiosyncratic Detroit Pistons team with fellow North Carolina alum Sheed.
I've posted this before, but here is Brown, of UNC, bringing his Brooklyn beef with Art Heyman down to Tobacco Road. Go Mustangs!

Airlines Report Falling Profits and Passenger Numbers
By Sarah Arnott
It was another gloomy day for the global airline industry yesterday as British Airways revealed depressed passenger numbers for what should have been one of the busiest months of the year, and two European carriers posted disappointing financial results.
But BA's share price remained buoyant and closed up 5 per cent at 267.75p, on the back of oil prices hovering at the $118-mark (60) compared with the all-time high of $147 a barrel last month.
Despite 3.5 per cent more capacity on BA's flights this July compared with last, the number of actual passengers was down by 3 per cent to just more than three million. The revenue passenger kilometre figure – which accounts for both seat sales and how far passengers flew – was also down, by 3.5 per cent, and only 75.8 per cent of available tickets were taken, compared with 81.2 per cent in the same period last year.
The falling numbers came as no great surprise. Last week, Willie Walsh, the BA chief executive, warned that the industry faces the "worst-ever" trading conditions as the company reported an 88 per cent slump in profits in the first quarter and revealed plans to cut flights.
The aviation sector is caught in a nasty bind. Fuel costs continue to inflate, rising faster than the increases in ticket prices that saw BA's passenger revenues up by 3 per cent in the first quarter. But hiking up prices puts off potential travellers – as illustrated by the 4.1 per cent year-on-year fall in BA's non- premium traffic in July.
The only good news is that the company is managing to hold on to sales of premium tickets in Business and First Class – July even saw a 0.4 per cent rise.
"Market conditions for the industry remain very difficult on the back of high oil prices and a weak economic environment," the company said yesterday.
"Long-haul premium remains broadly flat versus last year while non-premium bookings remain most sensitive to price changes."
Those higher-paying customers are crucial, according to Gert Zonneveld, a transport analyst at Panmure Gordon. "Roughly half of BA's revenues come from premium tickets so it is a very important profit generator, particularly with the current economic weakness and plummeting consumer confidence," he said.
Oil prices and fuel costs are aviation's biggest problem. BA's fuel bill in 2005/6 was around 21 per cent of its total cost base. For the financial year to March it was 26 per cent, and the expectation for 2008/9 is rising to 33 per cent.
"It is going up by 12 percentage points in the current financial year, which is more than the total operating margin of the company," Mr Zonneveld said. "That is a challenge for the aviation industry which it can't match by raising ticket prices."
But just as oil price falls push airline stocks up, so they are vulnerable in reverse. "If or when oil jumps up again, airline shares will come down just as fast as they are now going up," Mr Zonneveld said.
BA is not the only airline to be suffering. Air France-KLM, the French-Dutch carrier which is the world's biggest by revenue, yesterday announced first-quarter profits down 59 per cent to $168m (133m), despite revenues up 5.8 per cent to $6.2bn. The Air France fuel bill rose by 24 per cent year on year, and it is now anticipating a full-year bill of $5.86bn.
Iberia, the Spanish group, published equally gloomy half-yearly figures. Fuel costs shot up by a massive $199.5m, even as other operating expenses fell by $93.5m. While revenue remained flat, the company made a loss of $3.99m for the second quarter and $32.3m for the half-year.
BAA sues Ryanair in row over landing fees at Stansted
BAA has filed a High Court action against Ryanair over millions of pounds of landing charges that the budget airline has refused to pay at Stansted.
The airports operator has turned to the courts after failing to settle a row with Ryanair that began in April, when BAA said it would raise landing fees at Stansted from 5.50 per passenger to 5.88.
While the fee increases leave BAA's charges below the maximum allowed by the Civil Aviation Authority, the industry watchdogs, Ryanair and other airlines have criticised the rises as unwarranted. Ryanair has refused to pay the additional levies, while fellow budget carrier easyJet also withheld some charges for a period but is now taking legal action against BAA instead.
A BAA spokesman said: "For some time, Ryanair has enjoyed substantial discounts in charges for using Stansted Airport. This arrangement no longer applies, but our charges remain within the limit we are allowed to charge by our regulator."
A spokesman for Ryanair said the airline planned to fight the BAA action. Both it and easyJet plan to reduce flights at Stansted, which will reduce BAA's earnings.

Legendary investor Warren Buffett advises to be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful. One way we can try to measure the level of fear in a given stock is through a technical analysis indicator called the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which measures momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be oversold if the RSI reading falls below 30.
In trading on Wednesday, shares of Exelixis Inc (EXEL) entered into oversold territory, hitting an RSI reading of 28.4, after changing hands as low as $4.78 per share. By comparison, the current RSI reading of the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is 63.5. A bullish investor could look at EXEL's 28.4 RSI reading today as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side. The chart below shows the one year performance of EXEL shares:
Find out what 9 other oversold stocks you need to know about »
Looking at the chart above, EXEL's low point in its 52 week range is $4.29 per share, with $5.96 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $4.79.
According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, EXEL makes up 1.55% of the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (XBI) which is trading lower by about 3.7% on the day Wednesday.

Packing lunch for my son each day is a chore, to be sure. But it is one of those rare chores that I enjoy.
It's fun for me to put together little bits of this and that for him to have at meal and snack time so I know that even though I am not there while he is at preschool, he is getting great food.
And part of making sure what I pack stays great is having great gear. This is true no matter how old your kids are.
It just takes a few things to make lunch safer, more eco-friendly and, in the long run, more economical.
PackIt – the original foldable, freezable lunch bag
Food safety can be an issue since most schools are not equipped to keep all the kids' lunches refrigerated or to keep packed hot foods at the right temperature.
A study published in the September 2011 issue of Pediatrics found that 98 percent of perishable food in sack lunches reached unsafe temperatures - sometimes hours before it was to be consumed.
The finding: Food was not packed to stay cold enough to prevent bacteria from growing.
One of the study authors pointed out that even with ice packs, the majority of items reached unsafe temperatures hours before meal time.
So how do you keep the food cold until lunch?
I love the PackIt lunch bag. The thing is one big ice pack that surrounds your food, keeping it cold for up to 10 hours. Yes, it works. I have a couple of these for my son, and I love them.
They fold up small and go into the freezer. Unfold them and you have a nice, cold sack for weekday lunch or weekends when you are running around and want to bring snacks with you.
They are PVC-free, BPA-free, non-toxic and lead free. They can easily be wiped clean and used over and over.
LunchBots – stainless steel reusable containers
Stainless steel is a great option for packing lunches, and the LunchBots brand offers a lot of choices, including partitioned containers and leak-proof containers.

V. Raghavendra
Never in the history of Andhra Pradesh have so many 'stars' descended from the tinsel world as they have during these elections. The entire State is abuzz with their roadshows; but in the tiny enclave of Yanam, their star appeal is of little consequence.
In this beautiful town abutting East Godavari district, 'Mega Star' Chiranjeevi, his brother Pawan Kalyan or their rivals Balakrishna and NTR Jr, are huge draws, but they won't really be able to cash in on their star power.
For Yanam, also known as French Yanam, is not part of Andhra Pradesh, but one of the 30 constituencies of Puducherry Legislative Assembly, located on banks of Vasishta, a tributary of the Godavari, about 25 km from the port city of Kakinada.
Both the Praja Rajyam and Telugu Desam parties are not registered in the Union Territory of Pondicherry; any candidate put up by them will be considered an Independent, and cannot use their reserved symbols, rail engine and bicycle respectively.
Yanam is one of the administrative regions of UT of Puducherry, along with Karaikal and Mahe in Tamil Nadu and Kerala respectively.
It has been largely a one-man show in Yanam since the 1969 elections. Kamichetty Parassourama Varaprassada Rao Naidu, a popular leader of French India Socialist Party who favoured continuance of French rule, was elected MLA consecutively in 1969, 1974, 1977, 1980 and 1985 (thrice as Independent, twice on Congress's behalf and once as Janata Party candidate).
Tourism Minister of Puducherry, Malladi Krishna Rao is the incumbent MLA, who won in 1996 and 2001 also. Raksha Harikrishna of Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and Velaga Rajeswara Rao of Congress won in 1990 and 1991. The entire UT of Puducherry is a single Lok Sabha constituency; it also has one seat in the Rajya Sabha.
Corrections and Clarifications
The third paragraph of a report "Yanam plays by its own rules" ("Elections2009" page, April 7, 2009) was "For Yanam, also known as French Yanam, isnot part of Andhra Pradesh, but one of the 30 constituencies of PuducherryLegislative Assembly, located on banks of Vasishta, a tributary of theGodavari, about 25 km from the port city of Kakinada." The Godavari doesnot have a tributary called the Vasishta. Before it joins the Bay of Bengalthe Godavari branches into seven distributaries one of which is called theVasishta.

Although I have read the specs for hal/policykit I don't understand how the authorisations are actually done. Although the quick hack that I posted does seem to work for me I am not sure exactly how it is achieved. I do not see the group/owner on the endpoints for the usb device change. If you have any pointers to further reading on the inter-actions between hal and policykit they would be gratefully received. There is probably a better way to do this. Further reading today indicated that this should have been placed in /etc/hal directory structure. I do have an rpm for openocd and it would be nice to have it install the correct permissions in the right place. Kevin

The Emirate of Dubai region
Dubai today is a world-famous tourist landmark, attracting throngs of visitors from around the world. Its popularity as a holiday destination has surged in recent years, a testament to the success of the vision of the local government, who have invested heavily in turning Dubai into the tourist paradise it is today. Dubai benefits from a favourable climate, with a temperature that rarely falls below 15 C (59 F).
While summers can be hot and dry, with an average high of 40 C (104 F), winters are warm, with an average high of 23 C (73 F). Allied with pristine and well-maintained beaches, the weather and natural environment is reason enough to visit. However, it is arguably Dubai's man-made constructions which inspire most excitement. Dubai continues to challenge architectural convention, and has recently completed the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, which stands at an astonishing 828 metres.
Other examples of pioneering developments including the Palm Islands, which are three major commercial and residential infrastructures in the shape of palm trees. The islands will consist of 100 luxury hotels, exclusive residential beach villas, apartments, marinas, water theme parks, restaurants, hopping malls, sports facilities and health spas; they are eagerly anticipated.
For the discerning shopper looking for a Dubai deal, Dubai is heaven on earth. Known as the "shopping capital of the Middle East", it is home to the world's largest shopping mall, the "Dubai Mall". This is the crowning glory in a group of around 70 fully air-conditioned malls in Dubai, which attract visitors from all around the globe. Dubai is also known as the "City of Gold"; the Gold Souq, located in Deira, has up to 250 dedicated gold retail shops. The younger generations are not short of amusement on their Dubai holidays either; there are a number of theme parks located all across Dubai; notable examples include the famous Wild Wadi Water Park, located on Jumeriah Beach Road, and the world's largest indoor skiing arena, SkiDubai, which proves that with a little innovation, its possible to bring an authentic artic winter ski experience to hot, sunny Dubai.
International and Arabic food is available everywhere when you're on a Dubai holiday, from small diners to hotels. All the major fast food franchises are present in Dubai and from American to Chinese to Indian; Dubai caters to everyone's needs. With large investment pumped into transport, Dubai has become an accessible city, with multi-lane motorways, an efficient bus service with over 140 routes and an extensive taxi system which is constantly being expanded.
The Dubai Metro is a state of the art, fully automated metro network running throughout the city. It runs both over ground and underground, and has carried 10 million passengers since opening in September 2009. For international visitors, Dubai is a well-connected travel hub, with many travel options and direct routes available from most of the world's major cities. Its outstanding airport has a constant flow of inbound/outbound flights and is one of the busiest airports in the world, serving 101 destinations in 61 countries across six continents - making Dubai very accessible from anywhere in the world.
On a holiday in Dubai, you will discover a unique mix of old and new extremes; a modern, ever-expanding metropolis which is home to an indigenous culture steeped in history and long-observed traditions. It is a truly mesmerising blend of history and modernity, sure to captivate any traveller.
Marina Walk
Trendy Dubai Marina offers a mesmerising blend of urban living allied with beach-front activities. Luxury yachts bob in the calm waters whilst al fresco dining is the order of the day. Within a short walk from your apartment, there are over a dozen restaurants offering a variety of cuisines, including Thai,Indian,Persian,Italian,Japanese and Lebanese. Within the Dubai Marina area, Time Out
Dubai currently has an impressive 211 eating establishments listed.
For the purposes of self-catering, there is a small mini-mart adjoining the Torch building. The popular Emirate supermarket chain SPINNEYS have a branch nearby whilst a five minute drive will take you to the Dubai Marina mall which has a Waitrose amongst its160 retail outlets.
The recently completed metro is an excellent and cost effective way to see many of the unique attractions that Dubai has to offer. The purpose built Dubai Marina metro station is a short stroll from The Torch, backing up our claim to be in the very best location. Launching in November 2014, the first phase of the Dubai tram line will link Dubai Marina with the Palm Jumeirah and later, with the Burj Al Arab and the Mall of the Emirates.

Holocaust victims mourned at Auschwitz and beyond
The new exhibition - titled "Tragedy. Courage. Liberation" and prepared by the Museum of the Great Patriotic War in Moscow - removes the controversial terminology. It took years of discussions between Polish and Russian experts to finally complete it.
The exhibition narrates the Nazi crimes committed against Soviet POWS at Auschwitz, where they were the fourth largest group of prisoners, and at other sites. And it shows how the Red Army liberated the camp on Jan. 27, 1945, and helped the inmates afterward.
Also Sunday, a ceremony was held in Moscow at the Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center, which opened in November and is Russia's first major attempt to tell the story of its Jewish community. The museum portrays Russia as a safe and welcoming place for Jews today despite its history of pogroms and discrimination.
In Serbia, survivors and officials gathered at the site of a former concentration camp in the capital, Belgrade, to remember the Jewish, Serb and Roma victims of the Nazi occupation of the country.
Parliament speaker Nebojsa Stefanovic said it is the task of the new generations never to forget the Holocaust crimes, including those against Serbs.
"Many brutal crimes have been left without punishment, redemption and commemoration," he said. "I want to believe that by remembering the death and suffering of the victims the new generations will be obliged to fight any form of prejudice, racism and chauvinism, anti-Semitism and hatred."
Associated Press writers Frances D'Emilio in Rome, Jovana Gec in Belgrade and Lynn Berry in Moscow contributed to this report.

i want to clear the details so i can find the best shield for my problemand the special problem is to get the data out of the sd
How "fast" can arduino handle this hole process

Stanley Cup Playoffs Livestream: Rangers vs. Lightning | Watch Southern Republican Leadership Conference
CUIABA, BRAZIL - JUNE 21: Fans look on with electronic devices during the 2014 FIFA World Cup Group F match between Nigeria and Bosnia-Herzegovina at Arena Pantanal on June 21, 2014 in Cuiaba, Brazil. (Photo by Stu Forster/Getty Images)
With 1 billion posts, likes and comments in just the first half of the World Cup, the soccer tournament is already the most talked-about event in Facebook Inc's decade-long history, data obtained by Reuters showed. The soccer conversation measured between June 12 and June 29 involved 220 million people and 1 billion interactions, the Facebook data showed. And since the ball will be rolling for another two weeks, the tournament is set to break new records as the biggest social media event to date. "People are having conversations on Facebook about what they watch in a really unprecedented scale," Nick Grudin, the company's director of partnerships, told Reuters. "In addition to sharing and connecting with friends, people are engaging in real time with the media and the public voices they care about most." Facebook is the latest social media company to capitalize on TV-related traffic around big events like the World Cup, a trend started years ago by the microblog website Twitter Inc.

CHESTERTOWN North Warren High School Junior Daniel Hill, who has dreamed of a career in the military since childhood, has been chosen to participate in the 2013 West Point Leaders Experience.
The seminar, set for June, is held primarily for prospective candidates for attending the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
Hill was among 500 chosen for the one-week leadership seminar out of about 4,000 qualifying applicants nationwide. Among these top-achieving students, he was again selected to attend after the three sessions were reduced to one earlier this year due to federal budget cutbacks.
Daniel is the son of Margaret Hill of Adirondack and Dan Hill of the same hamlet in the town of Horicon. Margaret Hill is an employee of the North Warren School District, and Dan Hill serves as a patrol officer for Warren County Sheriff's office.
Daniel Hill Jr. said that he is looking forward to the leadership session, he's hoping to attend West Point in fall 2014, and has his sights set on a military career. He said he's imagined himself in the military since elementary school, and has envisioned attending West Point since 7th grade.
"I've always wanted to be part of the Army and represent the United States and what it stands for," he said. Hill applied for the session the very day that applications were first being accepted.
North Warren guidance Counselor Mike Terrio praised Hill's ambition, focus and work ethic.
Daniel has been the North Warren Class of 2014's top male student for years, garnering dozens of academic awards, Terrio said this week. Also, Hill was elected as President of North Warren's Student Council.
"It's inherent in his character to work hard toward his goals," Terrio said."Few people are willing to sacrifice short-term gains for long-term benefits like Daniel has through the years."

WALLA WALLA - Close to 60 vendors will show off their goods and services today for what is expected to be close to 3,000 visitors at the Walla Walla Valley Chamber of Commerce Business Expo & Home Show.
Among the new business participating in the three-day event are two sports-related enterprises: The Walla Walla Sweets baseball team and the Wine Valley Golf Club, a links golf course located near Lowden.
In the past the Expo has attracted close to 70 vendors; though the numbers of participants may be down slightly this year, Chamber CEO Dave Warkentin said, don't assume that business is down for everyone.
According to Warkentin, a small number of Chamber members reported that 2009 was a record year for their businesses. He added the Chamber also had a record number of memberships at 821.
"Just like other businesses, we are figuring out a way to hit our numbers," Warkentin added.
The Business Expo & Home Show takes place today from 12-4 p.m. at Walla Walla Community College Dietrich Dome. Cost is $2 and includes raffle tickets. Children 12 and under are free.

Can you incorporate healthy cooking into your jam-packed holiday?
May your walls know joy, may every room hold laughter, and every window open to great possibility.
~Mary Anne Radmacher
Want to find time during this hectic holiday season to cook healthy meals? If you find meal planning overwhelming, you are not alone. It's all too easy to give in to the temptation to toss a frozen dinner into the microwave. But the reality is, it's easy to incorporate healthy cooking into your holiday routine.
Here are a few tips to take the stress and anxiety out of planning daily meals for your family and friends.
1. Healthy cooking begins with preparation.
The secret to preparing nutritious, delicious meals in a hurry lies in the preparation. Before you even get out the cutting board and the knife, think about what steps are required to prepare your meal. Cooking can't begin until the prep work has been done. But once the foods have been soaked or cut, the cooking process itself takes only about a half hour to fifty minutes. Once you retrain your thinking to focus on the prep instead of the cooking, the process goes much faster. Then you can just go into the kitchen and whip up a quick meal, because all the ingredients and components are ready to go.
2. Leftovers are your friends.
The biggest mistake busy home cooks make when planning a meal is not knowing how to use leftovers—repurposing food that has already been cooked in a different, creative way. You can even take it a step further and set aside time on the weekend to precook food to use in your meals during the week. Then when you're crunched for time, you can whip up a quick meal on the go (and save money at the same time).
3. Design your menu around the largest meal.
If you're having trouble designing a meal plan, tackle your largest meal first. From there, you can create smaller meals for the rest of the day. For example, if your biggest meal of the day is dinner, begin by listing all of the foods and ingredients you'll need for that meal. Then your meals for breakfast and lunch will seem much smaller and easier, and won't take as much time. This helps make the whole process less overwhelming. So instead of getting intimidated by facing three meals a day, just focus on the largest meal and then build the rest around that. Then designing the other two meals, such as porridge for breakfast and maybe a hearty soup for lunch, will be a much easier and more manageable task.
When you follow these basic steps, you'll not only incorporate healthy cooking into your holiday routine, you'll also be able to focus on what's really important– celebrating the holiday season with family and friends.
Want to strengthen your immune system this winter?
Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.
~Edith Sitwell
Winter means snuggling up in front of a crackling fire, building snowmen on the lawn, and gathering family and friends together for a holiday meal. Imagine snowflakes falling softly, bright red berries on branches, aromatic herbs and seasonings, and warming soups and stews. Because the energy of winter slows down and turns inward, this is an ideal time to nourish your body deep inside and build up your immune system.
Seasonal cooking will help your body stay attuned to the order of the universe, becoming stronger and more resistant to illness. The key to achieving this balance is cooking according to the seasons. For example, in winter time, avoid eating cooling foods, like salads and frozen desserts. Instead, you want warming, strengthening dishes like the following recipe, which includes hardy winter greens.
Emerald Sauté with Cranberries and Pecans
This delicious side dish infuses rich flavor and color to any holiday meal. Bitter winter kale nourishes heart function and expands the heart's capacity for love and joy. Rich in calcium and antioxidants, kale also protects against macular degeneration and osteoporosis.
Serves 4
1 bunch kale, chopped
2 teaspoons untoasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons spring water
1/4 cup toasted pecans, chopped
1/3 cup dried cranberries, fruit juice sweetened
lemon juice, to taste
shoyu soy sauce, to taste
- In a skillet, sauté greens in oil 2 minutes.
- Add water. Bring to boil, lower heat, and simmer, covered, 2 minutes.
- Season with lemon juice and shoyu. Garnish with chopped pecans and dried cranberries.
Food is not just about nutrition and calories—it's also comprised of life force energy, related to the energy of the seasons, the time day, and your moods. When you balance your inner energy with external forces through seasonal cooking, you'll not only have a stronger immune system, but also a more balanced life.
Want an energized, exciting holiday season?
This is my wish for you: peace of mind, prosperity through the year, happiness that multiplies, health for you and yours, fun around every corner, energy to chase your dreams, joy to fill your holidays!
~D.M. Dellinger
Are you having an energized, exciting holiday season? Or do you feel sluggish and exhausted, barely making it through the entire day? If you feel tired and run down, you may be eating traditional holiday food and this kind of food depletes your energy.
If you want to feel stress-free and more energized, here are some things you can do to kick the holiday food habit and have an energized, vibrant, exciting holiday season:
1. Eat in moderation
The key is moderation, because when you overindulge, you become more susceptible to disease. Instead of filling your plate, choose a few items from the healthier dishes on the table and eat a smaller amount.
2. Eat energizing, exciting foods
During the holidays, you can tend to eat lots of rich, heavy, high fat holiday foods over a short period of time, which can shut down your digestion. When your digestion becomes compromised, your body becomes exhausted, and you feel tired and sluggish. If you want more energy without overdosing on caffeine, eat energizing, exciting macrobiotic foods. For example, use healthy substitutes for heavy, high fat ingredients, such as using almond milk instead cream.
3. Eat according to the season
During the holidays, the weather becomes colder. So, you adjust by wearing warmer clothes and putting on the heat. Remember to include warming seasonal foods in your routine, as well. When you eat seasonal foods, you're less susceptible to colds. By eating foods that are warming, like soups, stews, and root vegetables, rather than cooling raw salads, you increase internal warmth and strengthen your immune system to fight colds and flu.
When you have a nutrition plan in place, you will not only make better food choices, you will also have more energy and stamina to get through the holidays. Wishing you a healthy, happy, holiday season!
Enjoy This Warm Winter Treat
Are you ready to snuggle up by the fire with a warm winter treat? Then you will want to try this holiday favorite.
Roasted Chestnuts are a fun and easy snack that satisfies your sweet tooth. They are a low-fat healthy alternative to candies and sweets usually served this time of year.
Roasted Chestnuts
This recipe serves 1. If you have a group of 12 people, you'll need 24. If it's just you and your sweetheart, you'll only need 4. The amount is up to you.
2 chestnuts
- Cut an X on the bottom of each chestnut.
- Place chestnuts in a shallow baking pan with the X pointing upward.
- Roast chestnuts in 425 degree F oven for 20 minutes.
- Peel and enjoy.
If you prefer the traditional approach, you can also roast chestnuts over an open fire. You will need a chestnut roasting pan and something to support the pan above the fire.
Even if Jack Frost isn't nipping at your nose, this is still a great holiday treat.


text: Has anyone else noticed that the Shimano XTR Dual Control shifters don't work well with anything except SP41 housing. I have always used high quality, stainless, slick, shift cables and high qualtiy housing on everything before. Now I notice that it is impossible to get perfect shifting without the XTR cables and housing with Dual Control. This is the same for new and used parts. If the shifting is that sensitive to what housing is being used then how sensitive is it to a little contamination in the SP41 housing?

Narendra Modi's key aide Amit Shah was booked today by the Bijnore district administration for allegedly inciting the public through his controversial "revenge" remark.
"A case has been lodged under various sections of the IPC by the District Magistrate regarding some objectionable part in Shah's speech," Chief Electoral Officer Umesh Sinha told PTI in Lucknow.
BJP general secretary Amit Shah was Sunday booked for an alleged inflammatory speech a few days back, when he allegedly spoke of taking revenge for the Muzaffarnagar riots, officials said.
A case against Shah, a close aide of Bharatiya Janata Party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, has been slapped with charges under sections 153(a) and 125 of the Representation of the People Act by the Bijnor administration.
The action was taken after a go-ahead from the government, a home department official told IANS.
The Election Commission has also launched a probe into the matter and a CD of Shah's statement has been sent to the poll panel headquarters in New Delhi.
"The EC is seized of the matter and soon a decision would be taken on action against Shah if he is found guilty of violating the model code of conduct," a poll panel official told IANS.
Earlier at a rally in Muzaffarnagar, Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav threatened action against people trying to vitiate the atmosphere in the state
Mulayam Singh told IANS that the state government will not hesitate in taking action against anyone trying to disturb peace and harmony and said this "included people like Amit Shah".
"Why only Amit Shah, action will be taken against anyone who is out to destroy the social fabric of the state," he added.
Mulayam Singh also referred to the statement given by party general secretary and Rajya Sabha member Ram Gopal Yadav, who warned BJP leaders to rein in Shah or face legal action.
Shah has been accused of speaking of "revenge" for the Muzaffarnagar riots during his meeting with Jat leaders in Bijnor in western Uttar Pradesh Thursday.

Dog Car Hood Ornaments - Car Mascot
$ 360.00
Our dog car hood ornaments are the finest quality made! Many breeds to choose from. Each bronze casting is an outstanding work of art in itself. All Hand Crafted - Nothing is mass produced.
These hood ornaments are made with superb quality and craftsmanship. Each dog car hood ornament is individually and meticulously cast In bronze and chrome Plated.
These are the same hood ornaments that adorn the vehicles of the British Royal Family!
From star to finish, the process is tedious. Hood ornaments are cast in solid bronze cast using the lost-wax process. Molten bronze is then poured into a ceramic mold and the resulting cast model is revealed by destroying the ceramic shell.
The next step is fettling & chasing. Once cast in bronze, the model receives intense hand-finishing to re-create the surface textures. Attention to the finest details is paramount!
Lastly, plating and finishing by electroplate in hard, bright and durable chrome, finishes off this work of art!.
Many of today's cars and trucks come with sloping hoods. Some customers mount their dog hood ornament in the mid-section of the hood, others choose a location closer to the windshield. Some even mount their ornament on the dashboards inside their windshield.
A picture sent from one of our customers showing how he mounted his Scotty Hood Ornament. Thank you Dominic!!
This is one of our extremely unique dog gifts. You will not find a finer made hood ornament on the market today! If you are looking for a quality dog gift with style, class and charm, this is it.
All of our car mascots are manufactured by craftsmen in England. Now you can adorn your vehicle with the same hood ornaments that adorn the vehicles of the British Royal Family!
Mounting is easy and hardware is included. Handcrafted in England per order. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery. (possibly sooner)

Would you do it? Best starter on the trade market. I'm sure the cubs would want an arm and a leg. I would give them Heisey for him.
Would you do it? Best starter on the trade market. I'm sure the cubs would want an arm and a leg. I would give them Heisey for him.
The horrors of 2002-'03 are still too recent in my mind. Albeit true he is a much different pitcher than we had a decade ago, I like to think that there are much better ways to upgrade our team out there.
Votto's got the Canadian on lock down.
I don't even see him as the same person from the days of Dumpster. I look at him as an upgrade from Leake.
Do we really need a starter? There's a kid in our bullpen I think that might be worth a shot.
Looking at him as an MOR rental, I don't feel that he really fits our needs unless one of our starters goes down with injury... they've all been pretty solid as of late. Cueto is dominant, Latos and Leake are finding their feet, Bailey's showing real promise, and Arroyo is his old self. As of right now, we have more easily fixable needs on offense.
Where would you put him?
Right now, all we need is a bat or two for the bench.
A power bat would be nice.
To expensive...
We need a high OBP bat to start everyday in LF even though we have been playing well lately.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be! -Bret Hart
Further gutting our bench or left field options to bring in a starter that we don't really need seems like a risky gamble. Not sure that would really improve the team that much on the margins.
I'll give you that there is room for improvement on Leake's starts this year so far, but I'm still hoping he comes around on his own accord. Not sure I'd risk a contributor from a position that's in much worse shape than our pitching depth for that, though. Especially when I think it'd take more than Chris anyway.
Last edited by Larkin88; 06-18-2012 at 09:52 AM. Reason: Grammar
As far as Dempster goes, don't you feel he would be an upgrade at starter over Leake? I'm not totally sold on Leake this year. I think we are fine as him as our 5th starter but I want to see us win this division by 15 games. Dempster has looked great this year. That being said, I would not overspend or give them any good prospects for him.
I'd do it if they could afford it, sure. As you said, though, he's one of the premiere SP available for trade, so I don't think we'll be able to get him for peanuts.
Would rather save the trade pieces for shoring up left field or the bench. Just my two cents though.
I'd much rather spend the resources on improving the bench rather than SP. I deffinately DON'T want to trade a bat off the major league roster for a pitcher.
Sto Pro Veritate
The Reds have been fortunate so far to have their same 5 original starting pitchers from spring training staying healthy and pitching effectively enough to keep their rotation spots. A question I have is who would be the 1st guy to step into the rotation if someone gets hurt or Leake has another few crappy starts in a row? Tomko, Lecure, Chapman, Simon, trade?
