Old Three Hundred
The Old Three Hundred were the 297 grantees, made up of families and some partnerships of unmarried men, who purchased 307 parcels of land from Stephen Fuller Austin and established a colony that encompassed an area that ran from the Gulf of Mexico to near present day Brenham in Washington County, Texas, Navasota in Grimes County, and La Grange in Fayette County. Moses Austin was the original empresario of the Old Three Hundred and was succeeded by his son, Stephen F. Austin, after his untimely death.[1]
Stephen Austin agreed to implement his father's plan, and in the summer of 1821 he and a small group of settlers crossed into Texas. Before he arrived in San Antonio to meet with the governor, they learned that Mexico had earned its independence from Spain, making Texas a Mexican province rather than a Spanish province. Governor Martinez assured him, however, that the new Mexican government would honor the colonization contract.[2]
Stephen returned to Louisiana to recruit settlers. He offered land at 12.5 cents per acre, only 10% of what comparable acreage sold for in the United States. Settlers would pay no customs duties for seven years and would not be subject to taxation for ten years. In return, they would be expected to become Mexican citizens.[3]
In March 1822, Austin learned that the new Mexican government had not ratified his father's land grant with Spain. He was forced to travel to Mexico City, 1,200 miles (1,931 km) away, to get permission for his colony.[4]
The 1823 Imperial Colonization Law of Mexico allowed an empresario to receive a land grant within the Mexican province of Texas. The empresario and a commissioner appointed by the governor would be authorized the distribute land to settlers and issue them titles in the name of the Mexican government. Only one contract was ultimately approved under this legislation, the first contract granted to Stephen F. Austin.[5]
Between 1824 and 1828, Austin granted 297 titles under this contract. Each head of household received a minimum of 177 acres[6] or 4,428 acres[7] depending on whether they intended to farm or raise livestock. The grant could be increased for large families or those wishing to establish a new industry, but the lands would be forfeited if they were not cultivated within two years.[5]
The settlers who received their titles under Stephen's first contract were known as the Old Three Hundred, and they made up the first organized, approved influx of Anglo-American immigrants to Texas. The new titles were located in an area where no Spanish or Mexican settlements had existed, covering the land between the Brazos River and the Colorado River from the Gulf Coast to the San Antonio Road.[8] The capital of this new colony was San Felipe de Austin, now the town of San Felipe in Austin County.
When Austin began advertising his colony, he received a great deal of interest. He was able to be selective in his choice of colonists, which enabled his colony to be different from most others of the time. Austin chose settlers based on whether he believed they would be appropriately industrious. Overall, they belonged to a higher economic scale than most immigrants, and all brought some property with them. One-quarter of the families brought slaves with them. All but four of the men could read and write. This relatively high level of literacy had a great impact on the future of the colony. According to historian William C. Davis, because they were literate, the colonists "absorbed and spread the knowledge and news always essential to uniting people to a common purpose".[9]
Despite a provision in Mexican law requiring immigrants to be Catholic, most of Austin's settlers were Protestant. Many chafed at being ruled by Catholics. Most held strong feelings about property ownership and their personal liberty, though not that of their slaves.
Lester G. Bugbee in his article The Old Three Hundred published in the October 1897 issue of The Quarterly of the Texas State Historical Association, identifies the head of each family who purchased land in Austin's colony.[10] They were:

|Sep. 8th, 1799
|Apr. 14th, 1878
|William Bluford DeWees, pioneer settler and public official, was born in Virginia on September 8, 1799. He first visited Texas on a keelboat excursion up the Red River in 1819. In late 1821 he accompanied a group of four families from Arkansas to the Austin colony; the party arrived on the lower Brazos River on January 1, 1822. On August 3, 1824, DeWees and his partner, James Cook, who constituted one of the Austin colony's Old Three Hundred households, received title to a league of land on the Colorado River in the southern part of what is now Colorado County, about ten miles below Columbus. DeWees then obtained title to a second half league on the west bank of the river at the site of the Columbus township, on April 28, 1831. As property owner, developer, and early settler of the site he became known as a founder of Columbus. The census of 1825 listed him as a gunsmith, and he appears as a blacksmith in the census of 1826. In 1840 he held title to 1,207 acres, claimed another 887 acres under survey, and possessed a personal estate that included eleven slaves, thirty cattle, nine horses, and a carriage.
DeWees traveled in Mexico in 1826 and 1827, then took up residence in San Antonio, where he lived for almost two years before returning to his home on the Colorado. Beginning in 1837 he held a series of public offices in Colorado County, including justice of the peace, associate land commissioner, and associate justice of the county court. In 1865 he was again elected justice of the peace for Precinct 1 of Colorado County. Later that year he was appointed to a term as county treasurer by provisional governor A. J. Hamilton. But DeWees's political career and reputation were ruined in 1866 when he was charged by his successor with misappropriating $1,200 in county funds and was successfully sued for that amount in district court. His appeal of the decision was denied in 1870.
DeWees married a daughter of Austin colonist Benjamin Beeson, probably named Lydia, in 1823 and eventually became the father of two children. His wife apparently died before 1850, and DeWees probably married a German immigrant named Angelica. In the early 1850s he covertly collaborated with writer Emmaretta Cara Kimball Crawford in producing a journal of his pioneering experiences that purported to be a compilation of his letters to a Kentucky resident named Cara Cardelle; this volume of dictated reminiscences, actually written by Emmaretta Kimball, was published in 1852 under the title Letters from an Early Settler of Texas to a Friend. DeWees died in Colorado County on April 14, 1878.[30]

|Daniel Shipman
|NC 20 Feb 1801
|Goliad County Texas 4 Mar 1881
|Participated in the Disturbance at Anahuac June, 1832 and the Storming and Capture of Bexar, December 5 to 10, 1835 Daniel Shipman arrived in Texas March 19, 1822. Daniel and his friend Charles Isaac Nidever rode south to explore the Brazos River region; they reached the home of Martin Varner in Independence on April 8. After reporting to his father, Shipman joined Stephen F. Austin's colony in the fall of 1823. They received a labor of land at the juncture of the Brazos River and Mill Creek in May or June of 1824. Young Shipman served for a time on a surveying crew under William Selkirk before returning to his father's farm to raise a crop. He fought the Karankawa Indians during the summer of 1825 under Capt. Amos Rawls and later under Capt. Horatio Chriesman, but then quarreled with Austin over a quarter league that he had been promised. He visited the colony of Martín De León, where he intended to acquire a full league. Although he became friendly with De León and his family, Shipman was dissatisfied with the land and the colonists and so returned to the Brazos. In partnership with Nidever, he received a one-league headright now in Brazoria County on May 21, 1827. Shipman married Margaretta Kelly on September 23, 1828, and subsequently settled on Oyster Creek in Fort Bend County.
He served in Capt. Francis W. Johnson's company in the Anahuac Disturbances of 1832 and in Capt. John Byrd's company at the siege of Bexar. He was with Lt. Thomas H. Borden, the company's temporary commander, at the storming of the city in December 1835, and was at the side of his friend Benjamin R. Milam when he was shot. On August 2, 1836, Shipman and his father enlisted in Byrd's four-month volunteers; Shipman served until the company was disbanded on January 18, 1837. In February 1838 Shipman received half a league and a labor in Harris County as a head of household and an army veteran. By 1840 he owned 2,214 acres of land in Bexar County, an equal amount in Brazoria County, and 288 acres in Harris County. On February 24, 1844, he was elected justice of the peace of Fort Bend County. In 1867 he was a resident of Washington County. After the death of his first wife, Shipman married Eliza Hancock. In 1879 he published Frontier Life: 58 Years in Texas. The book is largely derived from the work of Dudley G. Wooten and other writers, but its early chapters are Shipman's own richly detailed and colorful memoirs. Shipman died near Goliad on March 4, 1881, at the home of his son Daniel Shipman. He and his second wife are buried in the State Cemetery in Austin on Republic Hill, Section 1 (C1) Row S Number 4. His younger brother John was killed on the Mier expedition. Daniel Shipman's third wife, Martha J. Haley, is buried in the Brenham Masonic Cemetery in Brenham, Washington County, Texas. According to court documents and census records, Daniel Shipman spent the last years of his life with Daniel and Eliza's son Edward M. Shipman.

4. level surface
5. wait 24 hours
6. Hope it doesnt leak..
Would that be the sequence?
My rear is still fine after around 65,000 km (40,000 miles). However, filling the valley with mastic does make changing tyres more difficult - for this reason I'll be using blobs of glue on the spoke nipples next time.
Anyway, to answer your questions:
1. Carb cleaner, brake cleaner, contact cleaner or acetone
2. A small dot of grease on the nipple, then a disk of masking tape
3. By gun with no nozzle
4. With a plastic spatula cut to to shape so that it runs along the rim on both sides, leaving a skim of mastic about 5mm over the nipples.
5. Wait as long as you can - a week, or more if possible.

'Lees-Marshment is one of the leading scholars in political marketing, and it shows in this comprehensive introduction and analysis of political marketing as theory and practice. For anyone interested in political marketing, this is a must-read' - Jesper Stromback, Mid-Sweden University 'This is a wide-ranging and engrossing introduction to a field that, despite its central importance to much of modern political activity, is still too little understood by all but the initiated minority' - Roger Mortimore, Director of Political Analysis Ipsos MORI Social Research Institute "Jennifer Lees-Marshment has written an exceptional, much-needed study on political marketing. Its mixture of marketing theory, applied politics, and pithy case studies makes this an invaluable addition to our understanding of campaigns, elections, and politicking." - Dennis W. Johnson, Professor of Political Management, The George Washington University, and editor of Campaigning for President 2008 (Routledge 2009)

Yes I'm using the flexbar. That and ice right after a match helps the most. I've tried the PK 7G and I did not like it at all. Granted I demoed it with some crappy syn gut in it, but it felt dead. Like swinging a padded hammer. Easy on the arm but the feedback was poor for me. I did not like it. If I'm forced to I'd switch to it, but its a last ditch effort.
I currently prefer the Yonex RDiS 100 98 inch frame. I demoed like 30+ sticks 4 years ago and that's the one that felt the best to me all around.
I'm a one handed backhand, both sides western. You are right about the grip. The issue I have is a perspire heavily. The grip twists when it gets wet if I get too lose. Its the backhand side really where the injury is occurring. I can feel it if I hang on too tight and frame a ball on the backhand side. Ive tried all the popular grips and the Bab Pro Tour seems to work the best for me. I've heard that a plain old leather grip can work too, although I have not tried that.

key indicator variable. A key variable is a variable that is fundamental and related to questions that are important throughout the Arctic, is essential to an overall understanding of the arctic system, and is also relevant at the local scale. A key variable is a necessary component of integrated monitoring because changes in associated variables cannot be understood without knowledge of changes in the key variable. The key variable is a disaggregated driver of lower-level changes.3 An example is temperature.4
A key indicator variable is a response variable or index that can be conveniently measured to denote changes in one or more key variables. Examples are phenology (the timing of events) and indices of human activity. For example, the proportion of whales harvested in open water by an arctic community during autumn rather than spring can be an indicator of climate-driven changes in sea ice cover. Key indicator variables may manifest themselves differently at different locations.
In the framework to be used here, a key variable is a key variable whether its variations are obtained from direct measurements or by proxy methods. A proxy measurement of a key variable is an indirect estimation of the key variable, usually consisting of a measurement preserved in some physical manifestation. An example is tree ring width or density in fossil and modern wood samples: from the patterns of ring widths, one can infer variability in environmental variables such as, for example, temperature. The value of proxies to monitoring networks is that they provide historical context for the contemporary measurements and instrument records. They also improve data products that arise from reanalysis efforts. Beyond tree rings, other examples of proxies include ice and lake sediment cores and local and traditional knowledge of environmental history. Proxy records often share a common threat of being lost (perhaps through melting of an ice cap in which a climate record is preserved or through death of a village elder). Data in old formats are similarly at risk of being lost.
Variables can be grouped in many ways. One approach is to organize variables according to underlying concepts. These concepts define the basic state of the physical, biological, chemical, and human environment, and identify and characterize natural variability and anthropogenic change. These concepts represent the most basic approach to system understanding and to the identification of the causes of change (e.g., physical-chemical drivers, human and biological drivers, environmental impacts, human and biological responses). Integrated monitoring is a particularly effective approach for recording these variables, and field manipulation experiments can be performed to obtain relationships among them. Such an approach is particularly useful for testing process formulations in models.
This conceptual approach is the most consistent with the AON vision statement because this way of thinking provides an umbrella for the individual questions, hypotheses, and themes, and it facilitates a pan-arctic focus and long-term perspective. In addition, this approach is inclusive in its philosophy, cross-disciplinary, and represents a stable base that can evolve as key questions, access to the Arctic, technology, and human needs change. Although there are other ways of categorizing variables, such as organizing by problems or research theme, organizing by concept has the distinct advantage that the concepts are less likely to change over time than questions or themes. Thus, the Committee prefers an organization that is founded on state variables but presents other options to encourage discussion. These other options entail grouping by practicality and approach, grouping by synergies (i.e., creating benefits that only arise from a suite of measurements or combination of measurements and existing data), and grouping by timescale.
Groupings can be based on discipline, theme, and measurement approach. For example, variables can be classified by major disciplines: atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere, terrestrial. Themes that can provide the basis for classifications include biodiversity, land cover, and sustainable resource use. In terms of measurement approach, variables can be organized by platform (satellite, observatory, human observers, buoys, etc.), thereby maximizing the use of existing expertise and the cost-effectiveness of infrastructure. In addition, classifications can be responsive to initiatives that define their own information needs. Examples are the International Polar Year and the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment. These initiatives can provide structure and permanence to data. Finally, variables can be classified by stakeholder priorities such as the priorities of arctic communities.
A classification scheme can be based on one of a number of types of synergy. For example, synergies among existing and new monitoring activities can lead logically to groupings of variables. Synergies can also arise from better use of existing data (e.g., satellite images, photographs, biological samples that have untapped potential). For example, precipitation data collected by weather stations and then thrown
To be clear, this definition does not preclude a key variable from changing.
Consider the changing migration pattern of a caribou herd. The fundamental driver (key variable) could be temperature, which might be linked to changes in migration pattern because of its effect on vegetation phenology and composition, snow cover, and consequently the availability of food. These changes are lower-level responses that are driven by changes in the key variable temperature. Lower-level changes such as migration pattern are then indicators of changes in the key variable temperature.

Roger had great 1st half of 2012 and honestly he did it, was No.1 again, but i don´t see him again to make it
I would say biggest competition for Nole could be Murray, but at the moment he is also ,,far to behind,, point wise and we all know his clay season won´t be nothing special, so his chance can come in 2nd half of the year if he can win more big HC titles than Nole
My bet for whole 2013 is Nole to be No.1 for every week in the calendar year
2nd most likely scenario is Murray having great year and be No.1 at some point in 2nd half of the year
3rd scenario would be Nadal playing out of his mind defending in 1st half everything-or a lot and than have good 2nd part of the year
But 1st scenario is most likely if Nole will be healthy - i mean Murray always will be limited on clay - so will loose some points there and well Nadal is not better on HC than Andy or Nole- Roger won´t go for another No.1 attack for sure
Masterful post. You rarely see logic like this on these boards.

Latest 2008–09 Connecticut Huskies men's basketball team Stories
Connecticut center Hasheem Thabeet said Tuesday he will declare for the NBA draft, forgoing his senior season. The 7-foot-3 junior averaged 13.6 points, 10.8 rebounds and 4.2 blocks over 36 games in helping the Huskies get to the Final Four this season.
Michigan State beat Connecticut 82-73 Saturday in the opening semifinal of the NCAA Final Four in its bid for a third national college basketball title. Kalin Lucas scored 21 points to lead the Spartans (31-6).
The NCAA Tournament's semifinals are set for Saturday, bringing together four of basketball's marquee teams for one of the top attractions in American sports. Michigan State will take on Connecticut in the opening contest and surprising Villanova will try to upset North Carolina in the second game.
Kemba Walker scored 23 points Saturday to lead Connecticut to another Final Four berth with an 82-75 win over Missouri in the NCAA West Regional Final. A.J.
The inside force of Hasheem Thabeet finally allowed Connecticut to pull away Thursday and reach the NCAA regional finals by downing Purdue 72-60. Top-seeded Connecticut scored the game's first eight points and the Huskies spent the rest of the contest fighting off Purdue comeback attempts. After cutting what had been an 11-point deficit to four with 11:24 to play, the fifth-seeded Boilermakers finally ran out of steam and left the Huskies just one victory away from reaching the Final Four....
Without ill head coach Jim Calhoun Thursday, Connecticut rolled to a 103-47 rout of Chattanooga in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Philadelphia. The Huskies, the top seed in the West Region, learned shortly before the contest that Calhoun had been hospitalized for undisclosed health reasons, but under the guidance of assistant George Blaney, they stormed to a 48-20 halftime advantage. A 55-27 second half completed the third-largest victory margin in NCAA Tournament history. Stanley...
A.J. Price scored seven of his 36 points in a game-closing run Wednesday, carrying second-ranked Connecticut to an historic 93-82 win over Marquette. It was the 800th win in the coaching career of Connecticut's Jim Calhoun.
The Pittsburgh Panthers parlayed their win over previously top-rated Connecticut into the No. 1 ranking in the USA Today/ESPN men's basketball poll Monday. Pitt (25-2) had been ranked No.
Hasheem Thabeet had 21 points, nine rebounds and six blocked shots Saturday to lead top-ranked Connecticut to a 64-50 win over South Florida. A.J.
DeJuan Blair had 22 points and 23 rebounds Monday to lead fourth-ranked Pittsburgh to a 76-68 victory over top-ranked Connecticut. Sam Young hit four 3-pointers while adding 25 points to help Pitt defeat a No.

Good read!
As for the Reds? The worm has turned, my friends. The Reds are going to win this season, and they're going to win next season, and they're going to win for a lot of years. Doesn't matter that ESPN Radio star Colin Cowherd called the team "frauds" a few weeks ago. Cowherd was wrong, dead wrong, but it's hard to blame him that much. The Reds are almost never on national television. They don't get much attention from anyone outside of the 513 area code. Well, not until recently.

Wanna buy Lenny Dykstra's World Series ring?
Sep 14, 2009, 10:10 AM EDT
Lenny Dykstra's post-playing days have been nothing if not colorful. He ran a chain of car washes, then built himself into some sort of financial guru, becoming a columnist for TheStreet.com, starting a magazine that counseled athletes about how to invest their money, bought Wayne Gretzky's mansion, had people make all kinds of steroids allegations against him, was accused of being a racist and a homophobe and the worst boss in the history of bosses, and finally — and not surprisingly — filed for bankruptcy.
That's a lot to fit into a single decade, but Lenny Dykstra always did give 110%. But for all of his triumphs and troubles, and for as big of a jackass Dykstra is reported to be, this has me feeling sorry for the guy this morning:
The bankrupt ex-ballplayer is auctioning off memorabilia from across his storied 12-year career – including his diamond and gold 1986 World Series championship ring. The bidders are unlikely to include the nearly two dozen businesses and individuals who charge the hardnosed player known as Nails bilked them of millions of dollars. The most amazin' item available is Dykstra's 10-karat World Series ring, symbolic of the Mets' stunning defeat of the Boston Red Sox. The sparkler – valued at $20,000 – bears the Mets logo, Dykstra's name and familiar No. 4, and the words "New York Mets, 1986 World Champions, 116 Wins."
Sympathy for any man facing such tribulations aside, given how Dykstra's post-baseball business dealings have gone, I'd (a) demand a certificate of authenticity for that ring; and (b) demand that it be sanitized to remove all traces of skeeze.

VIRGINIA BEACH -- The storm blew through Hampton Roads, leaving dozens of homeowners with a mess to clean up.
Michelle Lovelace of Virginia Beach emailed photos of atree limb that snapped on their oak tree, barely missing their house and the neighbor's house.
'We lost power around 7:30 p.m. until sometime after 11 .... and the tree down... was quite the winds,' she told WVEC.com.
Tracy, a 13News Now viewer, posted on the WVEC13 Facebook page a photo of a tree that crashed onto cars parked at her home in Virginia Beach.
'Feeling lucky, though, no one was hurt!,' she said.
Virginia Beach Police said they received calls about trees down and branches breaking off from 8 p.m. to around midnight Wednesday. Authorities say they responded to several locations: stretches of Shore Drive, Five Forks Road, Broad Meadows Blvd., Stephney Lane and Kildeer Court.
Downed trees were responsible for knocking out power across the ABC 13 viewing area. Dominion Power said at the height of the storm Tuesday night, about 10,000 customers were without power.

Number one albums what I got, like four of them
from Kanye West (Ft. Jay Z & J. Ivy) – Never Let Me Down Lyrics on Genius
The College Dropout was recorded from '99 to '03. By '03 Jay had 5 #1 albums which leads me to believe that this song was made in early/mid '02 or late '01.
By then Jay had 4 #1 albums
1. Hard Knock Life
2. The Life And Times Of Shawn Carter
3. The Dynasty: Roc La Familia
4. The Blueprint
The way he phrases the line, that he has "like four" number one albums shows how casually he's started viewing them. He has so many that he's acting like he's lost count.

Can X-Ray Radiation Exposure Increase Cancer?
Oct. 7, 2004 -- Patients getting chest X-rays, body scans, and other tests involving radiation exposure don't get enough information about the cancer risks, a new report says.
For example, a child receiving a CT scan will have a one in 1,000 cancer death risk, yet this risk of radiation exposure is often not discussed with parents, writes Eugenio Picano, MD, with the Institute of Clinical Physiology, part of the National Research Council in Pisa, Italy.
His commentary appears in this week's British Medical Journal. In the U.S., his statements drew alarm. "It's ludicrous, the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard," Polly Kochan, MD, a pediatric radiologist at Temple Children's Hospital in Philadelphia, tells WebMD. "I would love to know where his numbers came from ... one in 1,000. That is not reasonable."
WebMD was unable to reach Picano for comment.
Getting Signed Consent
In his paper, Picano states that radiologists take different tacks when patients are asked to sign informed consent forms. "Don't say a word" about radiation exposure is the most common approach, justified by time constraints plus "a paternalistic 'expert knows best'" attitude, Picano writes.
Some radiologists choose to understate the risks of radiation exposure, he writes. One nuclear medicine test involves an injection of radioactive material -- which patients might be told is radiation exposure similar to a simple chest X-ray. In reality, however, he says the dose ranges from 50 to 4,000 chest X-rays, depending on the specific nuclear medicine procedure.
"Such imprecise statements are probably intended to reassure patients to avoid useless concern about an unavoidable risk," writes Picano. "However, this attitude of 'one consent fits all' ... may mislead [doctors] to underestimate the associated risks" of radiation exposure.
Kochan balks at Picano's statements.
Especially in examining children, "we are very aware of risks of radiation exposure, we always have been, so we use as little as possible to achieve a diagnostic X-ray," Kochan tells WebMD.
"We give up a little bit of image quality because it's a child," she says. "We use lead shielding over the sex organs. It's something that radiologists all over the country do. We've always been aware of the importance of keeping radiation exposure as minimal as possible, especially with children."

Seminar commemorates 150th anniversary of First War of Indian Independence
`Indian institutes should face challenge from foreign varsities' Political scientists, anthropologists participate in seminar
Madikeri: Vice-chancellor of Mangalore University K.M. Kaveriappa said here on Tuesday that education was not reaching the poor and had become a tradable commodity thanks to globalisation.
He was inaugurating a national seminar "State attempted reforms, peoples' movements and socio-economic changes", commemorating the 150th anniversary of the First War of Indian independence.
Any foreign institute could establish a centre in the country and Indian educational institutions should stand up to face the challenge, Mr. Kaveraiappa said.
The British introduced English in India with a view to "break" Indian culture and bring disunity in society. However, reforms such as abolition of Sati, child marriage did work well. Indians did resent the land reforms, judicial reforms that heavily favoured the British.
Mr. Kaveraippa said post-Independence reforms such as the five-year plans did not achieve the desired results. People's movements launched such as the Kisan and tribal movements illustrated this. Referring to Kodagu, he said the fruits of development had still not reached the people of the district.
Lt. Gen. B.C. Nanda (retd.), president of the Kodagu Natural Sciences Research Society, who presided over the function, recounted the presence of Coorgs dating back to the second century AD. In the Sangam (Tamil) period, there was reference to Kodgu as "Kodagam", he said.
He expressed dismay at the opposition from some quarters over the proposed establishment of a chair in the Mangalore University to study the rule of the former rajahs of Kodagu. It may be recalled that Deputy Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa had announced an allocation of Rs. 25 lakh to institute the chair in his budget speech recently.
Seminar director and Head of Department of Anthropology, University of Madras, M. Abdul Kalam gave an account of Kodagu. Dr. Kalam has researched various aspects of Kodagu since 1972. Nowhere in the world more than 32 land tenures had been found as in Kodagu, he added.
Economists, geographers, political scientists and anthropologists are participating in the seminar that is on till May 11.

Richard Murdey: How can you possibly cancel out an AA filter? Is that even physically possible?
Yes, it is. And that is how the D800E does it.
One of the dumbest products I've ever heard of. It's not really that difficult to print out a negative of a digital file on a sheet of transparency film. Lay the transparency film on top of a sheet of photographic paper and turn a light bulb on for a few seconds. Much better quality, far fewer dollars.
zorro4: If they really insist on renting, Adobe should at least use a rent-to-buy scheme, rent at $9.99 per month, after a minimum of two years the customer can keep the last versions he has forever if he decides to close the subscription.
Now that is actually an idea I can agree with. I like it a lot. Lease as long as you like. With a minimum lease period you can opt out at any time and remain with the version you were at when you opt out. Just knowing I could opt out at any time and then own what I had paid into over the years would be a huge plus.

Beautiful bedroom cushion. I am happy with the quality and range of Dunelm's products despite your reserve and collect system which is a total shambles on each of the three occasions I have used it.
Great cushions - indifferent service!

Good cushions that go with the decor
Service and delivery comments:
Customer service was poor - I was kept waiting while the staff member busied herself with stock rather than serving me. There was only one other person on the customer service desk and was tied up for a long time serving another customer. This was at a supposedly quiet time - mid afternoon - so I would hate to be there at a busy period.

I had a look in ZARA yesterday and accidentally left with loads of their A/W stuff! Knitwear is irresistible! xReplyDelete
Those midi rings are just gorgeous! I know exactly what you mean when you say they join the ranks of hair pins/bands, on the 'we like to disappear' train! xReplyDelete
Oh my gosh, my mum is obsessed with those flowers! They are too gorgeous. I loooove your shoes! I'm at the end of winter, so I am beyondddd ready for some proper good weather!ReplyDelete
Autumn is my favourite season, so I am also anticipating its arrival, although this week of August has started off quite chilly. My rings always go missing too, so I've stopped buying them. It's my favourite ones that always go missing first!ReplyDelete
Those shoes are so beautiful! Love all your pictures! :) XXReplyDelete

All the yesses for Autumn! Everyone at work keeps moping about the cooler weather and look so confused by my cheesy grin response. I'm thoroughly enjoying the crisp blue skies and crunchy leaves that are already starting to emerge. I'll definitely be joining you in the happy Autumn camp!ReplyDelete
Also, I think the flower is a protea empress (or protea compacta). Either way it's a protea of somekind xxx
Such a pretty stuff! :)ReplyDelete
And i thought i am the only one who cannot wait for autumn to come... :)
Oh, you aren't the only one ready for Autumn - I am too. The weather has certainly been felling Autumnal where I live lately. Also, I'm surrounded by a lot of greenery and such and I'm definitely seeing Autumn in the scenery.ReplyDelete

Autumn is the best and I can't wait for it either, there is nothing nicer than curling up in the warm with loved ones and friends. Plus knitted jumpers and scarves are my life!!ReplyDelete

Gorgeous shoes you have. Love the bow detail and the leopard print. I can't wait for autumn either and all the cosyness of everything in this season, but not the weather :-)ReplyDelete
Lovely flowersReplyDelete

I am so excited for autumn too! I love Summer but there's something so homely about autumn. And I don't think its Oscar stealing your hairbands, mine disappear without a sausage dog.ReplyDelete
Autumn is my favorite time of the year so yes to everything autumn entails! Words can't even describe how excited I am about the colorful leaves, crisp weather, and hot cocoa. Plus, here in Georgia the weather has been extremely hot and muggy. So, some nice cool weather will be just what I need. Yay for no longer sporting a frizzy do and an oily face.ReplyDelete
I'm excited for autumn too =] i cant wait til the leaves change colour and i get to go conker pickingReplyDelete
you always take the best photographs!ReplyDelete

I miss fall and I want winter to come back sooner. I love cold weather because of funny hats we can wear during it.ReplyDelete
I just lost my midi ring...I have no idea where it disappeared..weird thing really. Same as with bands. Have you tried the rubber-swirl bands from H&M? Kind of fun stuff. They hold hair better and are fun to wear on a wrist.
I am SO ready for autumn too, I can't wait to indulge in hot chocolates and finally start lounging around in my warm oversized hoodies again! Those rings are lovely, I haven't bought any costume jewellery rings in so long, I used to be obsessed xReplyDelete

I feel the same, autumn clothes are so much more inspiring. ABSOLUTELY in love with those leopard print pumps!ReplyDelete

I feel the same way about autumn ♥ I can't wait to bring out my boots, cardigans, and scarves! What a wonderful way of celebrating your mom's birthday. What a gorgeous bouquet of flowers!ReplyDelete
I am obsessed with the leopard flats! I had a pair I was in love with but stupidly took them on a road trip and they ended up getting ruined from floating around the car. Yours are making me miss mine and making me want to search for a new pair!ReplyDelete
you are definitely not the only one excited for autumn! :)ReplyDelete
Gorgeous shoes. Leopard is my favourite print & goes with anything as for hair bobbles who knows!!!ReplyDelete
Cute shoesReplyDelete
This post just made me entire life. I genuinely feel like the bad guy for always wanting Summer to leave and Autumn to arrive. The cooler, crisp air means more cups of Snuggly tea, fires while watching movies on the sofa and lots of take away!ReplyDelete
SO excited for fall, it's my favourite season. It's just so cozy!ReplyDelete
Ali | Lilac Lipstick
I can't wait for Autumn either! Love everything from the colours and scents, to the comfy clothes and dark nights!ReplyDelete
Reckon the flower is a protea, they have them here in Australia. I think they might be native to South Africa, although don't quote me on that!ReplyDelete
It is a protea, it's South Africa's national flowerDelete
I love your blog! This is a great post :)ReplyDelete
What makes you beautiful
lovely photos! those flowers are perfectReplyDelete
I hope its not autumn yet, I'm still clinging onto my summer dresses and gladiator sandals, they're just too easy to throw on. I always find in autumn/spring you have to make much more of an effort with outfits and I'm far too lazy, haha
Helena / helenaterry.blogspot.co.uk
I really love the look of those rings, they're so pretty! I'm with you on autumn as well. Part of me wishes summer would just make one last appearance, but I know it's not going to happen, so I might as well embrace the lovely things that autumn brings.ReplyDelete
Glad to hear that I'm not the only one ridiculously excited for Autumn, I bought a coat and boots yesterday and today I'm going to pick out all my red and berry shades of make-up, haha!ReplyDelete
I am so excited for Autumn! hot chocolates, everything cinnamon, my big furry hat, cosy nights by the fire and of course jumping in giant piles of leaves!! H xxReplyDelete
Those shoes are gorge. I'm excited for Autumn too!ReplyDelete

The flower is a protea, it's the national flower of South Africa ( where I'm from). Loved this post, could so relate.ReplyDelete
I love those shoes - they're gorgeous & perfect for crisp Autumn weather! xoReplyDelete
I really love those shoes. Seriously lacking leopard print in my wardrobe atm, need to sort that out soon! Also (says quietly) Autumn is my favourite too. Actually looking forward to wearing tights again!xxReplyDelete

'Will get resolution passed in next Assembly session'
Rs. 10 cr. given to implement Sadashiv Committee report
Chief Minister promises to revive LIDKAR
Chitradurga: Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa has promised that his Government will in the next session of the Legislative Assembly get a resolution passed on providing internal reservation for the Madiga community.
He was speaking after inaugurating the State-level Madiga convention and the launch of development works for Madara Channaiah Gurupeetha here on Saturday.
He asserted that after the passage of the resolution, he would visit New Delhi, along with Ministers and MPs from the State, to urge the Union Government to approve the resolution.
The Government had granted Rs. 10 crore towards implementation of the Sadashiv Committee report, Mr. Yeddyurappa said.
" If required, more funds will be given," he said.
The Chief Minster promised to revive the Karnataka Leather Industries Development Corporation (LIDKAR) by granting Rs. 10 crore for it. As demanded by Dalit leaders, he promised it would be named after Babu Jagjivan Ram. Holding politicians responsible for the plight of Dalits in the country, he said: "Political leaders have spent more time in sorting out their own differences than looking at the concerns of the weaker sections of society."
Mr. Yeddyurappa said his Government had granted Rs. 2 crore and seven acres towards the construction of Babu Jagjivan Ram Bhavan in Bangalore.
"Besides, Rs. 20 crore has been earmarked in the budget for construction of Babu Jagjivan Ram bhavans in all districts," he added.
He promised to grant Rs. 1 crore more to the gurupeetha.
Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar inaugurated the function, Minister of State for Railways, K.H. Muniyappa, Leader of the Opposition in Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah, KPCC president R.V. Deshpande, Cabinet Ministers, MPs, MLAs, MLCs and seers of various maths were present.
