|Posthumous name
|Empress Wulie (Chinese: 武烈皇后; pinyin: Wǔliè Huánghòu; Wade–Giles: Wu-lieh Huang-hou)
Lady Wu (died 202),[1] personal name unknown, was the wife of the warlord Sun Jian, who lived in the late Eastern Han dynasty. She bore Sun Jian four sons and a daughter – Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Sun Yi, Sun Kuang and Lady Sun. She was posthumously honoured as "Empress Wulie" in 229 by her second son Sun Quan, who became the founding emperor of the state of Eastern Wu in the Three Kingdoms period.
Early life and marriage to Sun Jian[edit]
Lady Wu was from Wu County (within present-day Suzhou) in Wu Commandery (吳郡), but she grew up in Qiantang County (錢唐縣; within present-day Hangzhou). She was orphaned at a young age so she lived with her younger brother, Wu Jing.[2]
Sun Jian heard of her beauty and character and desired to marry her. However, Lady Wu's relatives disliked Sun Jian, whom they perceived as an idler and a rascal, so they wanted to reject his proposal. Sun Jian was embarrassed and angry at their decision. Lady Wu told her relatives, "Why bring disaster upon yourselves just because of your love for me? If this turns out to be a bad marriage, I'll accept it as my fate." Lady Wu's relatives then agreed to her marriage to Sun Jian. She bore Sun Jian four sons and a daughter.[3] She probably married Sun Jian in 175 or earlier because their first child, Sun Ce, was born that year.
According to a story in In Search of the Supernatural, Lady Wu dreamt about the moon entering her body before she gave birth to Sun Ce. Later, before she gave birth to Sun Quan, she had a similar dream about the sun entering her body. When she asked her husband about her strange dreams, he said, "The sun and the moon capture the true essence of yin and yang. They are very auspicious symbols. My descendants will become great men!"[4]
In 190, when Sun Jian raised an army to join the campaign against Dong Zhuo, he relocated his family from Changsha Commandery (長沙郡; covering present-day Changsha and parts of Hunan) to Shu County (舒縣), Lujiang Commandery (廬江郡), which is in present-day Shucheng County, Lu'an, Anhui. In Shu, Sun Ce met and befriended Zhou Yu, who was about the same age as him. Zhou Yu offered to let Sun Ce and his family stay with him and he paid respects to Lady Wu as though she was his real mother. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce became very close friends.[5]
Life during Sun Ce's conquests in Jiangdong[edit]
Sun Jian was killed in action at the Battle of Xiangyang in 191 against Liu Biao's forces. He was succeeded by his eldest son Sun Ce. Around the time, Lady Wu's younger brother Wu Jing was appointed by the warlord Yuan Shu as the Administrator (太守) of Danyang Commandery (丹楊郡; commandery capital in present-day Xuancheng, Anhui),[6] but had yet to assume his appointment. Wu Jing was at Qu'e County (曲阿縣; in present-day Danyang, Jiangsu) then, so Sun Ce brought his family to Qu'e to join his uncle.
Between 194 and 199, Sun Ce embarked on a series of conquests in the Jiangdong (or Wu) region (covering southeastern China) to seize territories from the local governors and warlords in the area. He left his mother and family members in Qu'e County, but later had them relocated to Liyang County (歷陽縣; present-day He County, Ma'anshan, Anhui) and Fuling County (阜陵縣; around present-day Quanjiao County, Chuzhou, Anhui) consecutively.[7] After Sun Ce had conquered the commanderies of Wu (south of the mouth of the Yangtze River, with its capital in present-day Suzhou) and Kuaiji (south of Hangzhou Bay, with its capital in present-day Shaoxing in Zhejiang), he relocated his family to Wu County, which was Lady Wu's hometown.
When Sun Ce was in power in Jiangdong, he encountered a Taoist priest called Yu Ji, who had attracted a sizeable following for spreading his faith and for his alleged healing powers. Sun Ce accused Yu Ji of heresy and had him arrested. Many women came to see Lady Wu and implored her to save Yu Ji, so Lady Wu asked her son to release Yu Ji. She said, "Yu Ji brings good luck to the army and he helps to heal the soldiers. You shouldn't kill him." However, Sun Ce insisted that Yu Ji was a heretic and was corrupting the masses through his "teachings", so he had Yu executed.[8]
Lady Wu was known for her wisdom and shrewdness in politics. The Kuaiji Dianlu (會稽典錄) recorded one incident in which Sun Ce wanted to kill Wei Teng (魏騰), an Officer of Merit (功曹) serving under him, when Wei opposed his views. The other officials were afraid and did not know what to do. Lady Wu showed up, stood beside a well, and told her son, "You've recently established a foothold in Jiangnan and there are many things you still need to do. You should treat men of talent with respect, pardon them for their minor mistakes and honour them for their contributions. Officer Wei has been performing his duties faithfully. If you kill him today, tomorrow others will rebel against you. I don't wish to see a tragedy occur, so I'll throw myself into this well." Sun Ce was shocked and he immediately released Wei Teng.[9]
Life during Sun Quan's administration[edit]
Sun Ce was assassinated in 200 CE by the servants of Xu Gong, a commandery Administrator whom he killed earlier. He was succeeded by his younger brother, Sun Quan, who was still young when he took over the reins of power. Lady Wu rendered much assistance to Sun Quan in administering political and military affairs.[10]
Around 202, the warlord Cao Cao, who controlled the Han central government, demanded that Sun Quan send one of his sons to the capital Xu (許; present-day Xuchang, Henan) as a hostage so as to secure Sun's allegiance towards him. When Sun Quan gathered his subjects to discuss the issue, they could not arrive at a conclusion.[11] Personally, Sun Quan was not in favour of yielding to Cao Cao's demand, so he had another meeting with only his mother and Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu advised Sun Quan against sending a hostage[12] while Lady Wu endorsed Zhou's suggestion and asked her son to treat Zhou like an elder brother. Sun Quan heeded their advice.[13][notes 1]
Before her death in 202, Lady Wu summoned Zhang Zhao, Dong Xi[14] and others and instructed them to help Sun Quan in governing the territories in Jiangnan. She was buried at Gaoling (高陵; believed to be somewhere in present-day Suzhou, Jiangsu).[1] In 229, when Sun Quan declared himself Emperor and established the state of Eastern Wu, he granted his mother the posthumous title "Empress Wulie" (武烈皇后).[15]
In fiction[edit]
In Luo Guanzhong's historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Lady Wu had a fictional younger sister who also married Sun Jian. The elder Lady Wu was the mother of Sun Ce and Sun Quan while the younger one bore Lady Sun and Sun Lang. The younger Lady Wu was also known as "Wu Guotai" (吳國太; lit. "Elder Lady Wu of the State"). Wu Guotai lived longer than her sister because she played a significant role in the marriage of her daughter to Liu Bei in 209.[16]

just recently purchased a Spirit 23' with traler, she's a 78 vintage but seems to be solid. Needs woodwork relacing on upper deck ( alread made new hatch runners) safty handrails are next. External hull (upper) requires a lot of buffing to remove oxidisation, lower hull has a few small blisters, ground out a few, non deeper than 1/4'' so far, will probably do a bottom coat of epoxy/grafite after fairing hull. she draws a little over 2' (swing keel), so I have to learn how to step the mast on my own and launch with some form of tongue extention, but that probably won't be for a few months yet to get her ship shape.
I learned to sail in the early 80s in Bermuda on international one design 10 meter boats, starting as a grinder and working my way around, had sunfish, 14' sail boat (forgot make)now have Hobie 16,but want to do some cruising in my later years,so thats my plan.
I live on Inks lake,Texas,retired, pass my time building wooden kayaks and kayak fishing/camping.

The bandwagon may have moved from Bangladesh to the UAE, but the awful memories of that 21-ball 11 against Sri Lanka are still haunting him. In fact, he has also failed to recover from the stinging criticism he received for flopping in the final of the World Twenty20. Perhaps, it has a lot to do with rioters pelting stones at his house. But even a swashbuckling 52 not out in his first match for the Royal Challengers Bangalore couldn't help. Yuvraj Singh is still sulking. Big time.
"The biggest problem with our country is that people forget what you have done in the past; they forget what the guys have done for their country. I am not sad; I am sad for those people who do such kind of things because if that's the way you want to treat people who have brought laurels for your country, it's their choice. I don't have much to say. It was not in good taste," Singh said after starring in a comprehensive win over the Delhi Daredevils in Sharjah on Thursday.
A lot was said and written about Singh's ineffectiveness in that crunch match against the Lankans. Why, they was even talk of his international future. "He's finished" was oft-repeated. Jokes on Vijay Mallya, who splashed Rs 14 crore on him at the IPL auction, were spreading like wild fire. But Singh is of the opinion that he's in the right team. "I thought I wanted to go to a place where I could express myself, and Virat (Kohli) and Zaheer Khan always told me that RCB is where you could come and play the way you want, because there are so many dynamic players over here. You don't have to worry about carrying on till the end alone," he said.
Lavishing praise on Kohli, who scored an unbeaten 49 in Thursday's win, Singh said, "Virat has grown up in front of my eyes and I have seen how his career has gone. I think he and I share a very good relationship on and off the field and I love batting with him. He is in such fine form. Now I hope I can continue with my form and contribute for my team."
Criticism towards Yuvraj unfair: Kohli
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli on Thursday said the criticism directed towards his India team-mate, Yuvraj Singh, for his performance in the recent World Twenty20 loss against Sri Lanka in Bangladesh was "unfair". "Yuvraj got criticism recently, it's unfair. He has won us two World Cups (2007 T20 and 2011 50-over), he's a proven match-winner and it's important to back a player like him," Kohli said after his side's eight-wicket win over Delhi Daredevils.
Mallya pleased with 'old vintage self' Yuvi
After splurging a mammoth Rs 14 crore to fetch his services, Royal Challengers Bangalore owner Vijay Mallya was immensely pleased with Yuvraj Singh for playing a crucial role in beating Delhi Daredevils in their IPL campaign opener. "What particularly pleased me was Yuvraj Singh coming back to his old vintage self. His strokeplay was magnificent," Mallya said in an interview with RCB's official website.

The Cisco ASR 9000 series is showing great momentum – and that's no laughing matter to our esteemed competitors in the industry (we agree wholeheartedly with Craig Matsumoto of Lightreading.com – it would make for a very bland April Fool's joke.)
But when it comes to the world's most powerful edge router, we are very serious.
Today, we announced with NTT America their deployment of the ASR 9000. They intend to boost the capacity of their aggregation network, in part because of the increasing demand for high-definition video transit and the impending shortage of IPv4 addresses. They're actually part of a global service provider with many large customers in the financial, entertainment, media, and telecommunications industries. Parent company NTT Japan is a trendsetter and sees the need to prepare for the next generation Internet. NTT Japan, in fact, has the largest capacity of any global Tier 1 network across the Pacific ocean at over 300 gigabits per second (Gbps). Certainly, they are making sure they have a lot of room for texts, Tweets, and TelePresence (or video, mobile, and cloud as we like to say). At Cisco, we too see the rapid bandwidth growth that will only grow. The Cisco Visual Networking Index expects Global IP traffic is expected to increase fivefold from 2008 to 2013. IP traffic in Asia Pacific will lead this growth worldwide, forecasted to reach 21 exabytes per month in 2013, accounting for more than one-third of the global traffic.

posted 7 years ago
I'm sure this is a very effective training tool for those dogs who understand that bitter apple is a bad taste. For my pup, who'll eat anything found in the yard (and I mean anything) bitter apple tastes would be more appearling to me too! I found that I just had more of a mess after trying it out.
Pros: My dogs loved the taste
Cons: You don't know if it will work or not for you until you buy and try

Clemson Downs names new marketing director
CLEMSON — Clemson Downs Retirement Community announced that Ruthie Millar has joined its team in a newly created marketing role.
Millar will work to heighten external engagement by working with members of the Greater Clemson community and across the region to convey the value of the "continuum of care" model offered at Clemson Downs.
Millar will work in tandem with longtime Clemson Downs employee Jackie Cleveland, who is heading up internal marketing programs.
The expansion of the marketing department coincides with rapid growth and development at the Clemson campus.
Millar joins Clemson Downs after serving as membership director for the Clemson Area Chamber of Commerce since 2008. In that role, Millar served as community liaison with chamber members, other community organizations and sponsors.
"Ruthie's significant impact within the Clemson community is inspiring for us at Clemson Downs," said John LeHeup, executive director for Clemson Downs. "Her energy and passion and vast knowledge of the community is unmatched, and she is a strong and exciting addition to our marketing team. We look forward to her strong leadership and forward thinking approaches in ensuring our marketing initiatives convey the true value of our retirement community to Pickens County residents and beyond."
Along with extensive experience at the Clemson Chamber, Millar also is engaged with area non-profits and events, co-chairing ClemsonFest and serving on the board at Pendleton United Methodist Church.
"Clemson Downs has a powerful story because this is a retirement community that does nothing short of keeping families and couples in close proximity to each other when they require varying degrees of care," said Millar. "I look forward to expanding my knowledge of the Town of Clemson and beyond and continuing to engage those who are my neighbors and who have grown to become great friends."

These evangelicals say they want to help Americans "regain our moral clarity." There is no moral clarity in the ghost courtrooms at Guantánamo, the deeply un-American Military Commissions Act, and a host of other covert missions by the most immoral presidency in our history.
But as Americans recoiled at the redacted confessions of KSM, Human Rights Watch raised a huge specter of missing moral clarity, of unanswered questions about the CIA secret prisons: their exact locations, the treatment of detainees, and the "complicity of other governments" harboring them in their countries.
And most important, what of all the other CIA ghost prisoners? Who are they? Where are they? What was done to them all these years? How have they been disposed of?

PITTSBURGH — When Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin demoted running back Rashard Mendenhall to third-string following a fumble in a loss to Cleveland last month, Tomlin stressed Mendenhall would have a chance to redeem himself.
Not this week.
The Steelers suspended Mendenhall for their game Sunday at Dallas for conduct detrimental to the team.
The suspension is the latest in a series of setbacks for the 25-year-old Mendenhall. He emerged as Pittsburgh's starter in 2009 and topped 1,000 yards in 2009 and 2010. He nearly reached the milestone again last winter but tore the ACL in his right knee in the regular- season finale against Cleveland.
Mendenhall returned Oct. 4 and had 101 total yards and a touchdown in a victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. He strained his right Achilles four days later against Tennessee and never regained a firm grip on the starting job.

Environmental work The City Council considered an agreement with Widseth Smith Nolting in which WSN would continue investigating a former oil tank leak site in the railroad corridor downtown.
The Bemidji City Council unanimously voted on Monday to expand the city's industrial park. The industrial park is proposed to expand south of Carr Lake Road Southeast and east of the North Central Door property, adding 68 acres to the Bemidji Industrial Park and create 38 industrial-use lots. The project will include construction of sanitary sewer, water main and roads. The industrial park, which was originally developed in 1974, currently contains more than 175 acres and houses 48 businesses, which employ more than 1,100 people.
The Bemidji City Council will want to be equipped with the best information possible in preparation for making decisions regarding development along the south shore of Lake Bemidji, said City Attorney Al Felix on Monday. Because of that, he urged the council to retain a consultant who would provide the city with estimates about the value of the land involved in the redevelopment. Gary Battuello of Ramsland and Vigen out of Duluth, Minn., has capped his costs at $6,500 to provide valuation estimates to the city, according to council documents.
The Bemidji City Council on Monday is expected to consider authorizing plans to expand the city's industrial park. The industrial park expansion plans would add 68 acres to the Bemidji Industrial Park and would include construction of sanitary sewer, water main and roads, according to a staff report from City Engineer Craig Gray. The estimated total cost is $2.7 million, Gray reported. The city and Bemidji Development Corporation obtained a $1.2 million from the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration.
A resident asserted on Thursday that seven minutes to get through the detour to downtown Bemidji was "unacceptable." Gary Bientz was among about 25 people who attended a weekly public information meeting about Bemidji Avenue roadwork Thursday morning at Bemidji City Hall. He said the city and Minnesota Department of Transportation have done little to improve the flow of traffic, asking why officers with the Bemidji Police Department were not stationed at the intersection to monitor and ticket illegal driving habits.
Forward planning is paying off for the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Potential archeological findings recently were uncovered during roadwork and utility improvements along Bemidji Avenue North, according to Todd Vonasek, resident engineer with the Minnesota Department of Transportation. But, MnDOT had planned for such a possibility and earlier had retained an archeological consultant, who was on site when the items were recovered. Thanks to strong support from Bemidji State University, it was quickly determined that the items recovered were not human remains, Vonasek said during
While his co-workers packed for their big move into the city's new Public Works Facility, City Engineer Brian Freeberg was packing up for retirement. After two stints with the city of Bemidji, Freeberg retires today as the city's engineer. "I'll miss it," he said simply. When former City Engineer Mike Metso resigned in 2001, Freeberg joined the city as its interim city engineer.
After a nine-month absence, Rita Albrecht will return to City Hall. Albrecht left her position as assistant city planner in August to join the Headwaters Regional Development Commission as a development specialist. But she is now going to rejoin city staff as Bemidji's community development director and will be responsible for providing professional planning and development services to the city. "It will be nice to have her back on board," Mayor Richard Lehmann said.
The main suspect in a November drive-by shooting has been sentenced. Jesus Thomas Ali, 21, of St. Paul, was sentenced Tuesday for his role in a Nov. 30 drive-by shooting at an occupied residence on the 19800 block of Plantation Road Southeast. Ali was convicted and sentenced for two felony charges stemming from the November incident.
After some massage therapists described an annual physical exam requirement as degrading and insulting, the Bemidji City Council agreed Monday to reconsider its massage ordinance.

One University of Memphis student is new Miss Tennessee; another is runner-up at Miss USA
Sisters from the same Memphis sorority placed high in state and national beauty pageants over the weekend.
Erin Hatley, 20, of Bartlett was crowned Miss Tennessee on Saturday and Ashley Durham of Adamsville was first runner-up in the Miss USA Pageant on Sunday. Both are members of the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority at the University of Memphis.
"It's just a coincidence, I'd say," said Hatley. "We've been keeping in touch. I cheered her on and she sent me balloons this past week to wish me good luck."
Hatley began her pageant career by winning two, smaller local competitions.
"She prepared by doing mock interviews and working with a pageant director," said Hatley's father, Scott Hatley.
The preparation obviously paid off, with Hatley winning the state pageant Saturday in Jackson. Her win earns her an opportunity to compete for the Miss America title in January.
The junior at the U of M plans to become an executive director of a nonprofit organization.
As Miss Tennessee, Hatley will travel around the state this year, encouraging kids through the Character Counts program.
Durham, also a junior, competed against 50 other contestants in the Miss USA Pageant on Sunday night in Las Vegas.
Both women serve on the executive board in their sorority. Durham is vice president of recruitment and majors in public relations, while Hatley, a marketing major, serves as vice president of member development.
"My sorority really stands for, in my opinion, personal development. We don't stand for all of these social aspects that people think of when they see a sorority," said Hatley.
Hatley will spend about two weeks traveling to various meetings before she receives a break to spend some family time at home.
"It's basically the best Father's Day gift I could have expected!" said an excited Scott Hatley.

2 funerals begin a sad procession in Connecticut
Lanza is believed to have used a Bushmaster AR-15-style rifle, a civilian version of the military's M-16. It is similar to the weapon used in a recent shopping mall shooting in Oregon and other deadly attacks around the U.S. Versions of the AR-15 were outlawed in this country under the 1994 assault weapons ban, but the law expired in 2004.
At least one senator, Virginia Democrat Mark Warner, said Monday that the attack in Newtown has led him to rethink his opposition to the ban on assault weapons.
West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, a Democrat who is an avid hunter and lifelong member of the National Rifle Association, said it's time to move beyond the political rhetoric and begin an honest discussion about reasonable restrictions on guns.
"This is bigger than just about guns," he added. "It's about how we treat people with mental illness, how we intervene, how we get them the care they need, how we protect our schools. It's just so sad."
Authorities say Lanza shot his mother, Nancy Lanza, at their home and then took her car and some of her guns to the school, where he broke in and opened fire. A Connecticut official said the mother, a gun enthusiast who practiced at shooting ranges, was found dead in her pajamas in bed, shot four times in the head with a .22-caliber rifle.
Lanza was wearing all black, with an olive-drab utility vest with lots of pockets, during the attack.
Investigators have found no letters or diaries that could explain the rampage.
Debora Seifert, a spokeswoman for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said both Lanza and his mother fired at shooting ranges, and also visited ranges together.
"We do not have any indication at this time that the shooter engaged in shooting activities in the past six months," Seifert told the AP.
In Newtown, classes were canceled Monday, and the town's other schools were to reopen Tuesday. The district made plans to send surviving Sandy Hook students to a former middle school in the neighboring town of Monroe.
Sandy Hook desks are being taken to the Chalk Hill school in Monroe, empty since town schools consolidated last year, and tradesmen are donating their services to get the school ready within a matter of days.
"These are innocent children that need to be put on the right path again," Monroe police Lt. Brian McCauley said.
With Sandy Hook Elementary still designated a crime scene, state police Lt. Paul Vance said it could be months before police turn the school back over to the district. The people of Newtown were not ready to address its future.
"We're just now getting ready to talk to our son about who was killed," said Robert Licata, the father of a student who escaped harm during the shooting. "He's not even there yet."
Contributing to this report were Associated Press writers John Christoffersen, Ben Feller, Adam Geller, Jim Kuhnhenn and Michael Melia in Newtown; David Collins in Hartford, Conn.; Brian Skoloff in Phoenix; and Anne Flaherty in Washington.

To the Editor,
As a resident born and raised in Robeson County and having lived in Lumberton most of my life, I consider patronizing local businesses as my way of giving back to the community that made me who I am. Although I have traveled to many places as a veteran of the Armed Forces and a federal employee, I find myself bypassing businesses that can accommodate the same needs I may have to frequent those in my hometown.
So it is distasteful when one of those local businesses renders a defective or faulty product, good or service with the willful intent to deceive and lie to me as a customer. It is even more disappointing to know that this business is owned by an individual who is serving as a councilman.
Although personal business and the business of running a district are different, to be successful they both require one important ingredient — ethics. I hold my local councilman to that standard and as a resident of the city I hold local businesses to that same standard.
I will say to all those that own local businesses and hold a public office that there should be no double standard and to also examine yourself personally and professionally before considering to run for office in the future.
Geoff M. Wells

In Mahesh Dattani's 30 Days in September, theatre actor Ira Dubey's role as the young, attractive promiscuous Mala aptly captures the trauma of child sexual abuse (CSA) and its manifestation in adulthood. "None of Mala's relationships lasted more than 30 days as she avoided getting too involved. The past does not stay in the past, at least in the case of CSA. The repercussions are felt throughout life. I have not experienced it, but can understand it at some level," says Dubey, a resident of Nariman Point. "I could not afford to get lost in the role, wail and bawl, as I would lose track of my character. An actor should be able to take the audience along with them to discover a different world."
The Bollywood bit
Recently released Bollywood film, Highway, loosely touches upon the sensitive topic of CSA when Veera (played by Alia Bhatt), speaks of how as a young child she was often forced to sit on her uncle's lap, who in the guise of gifting goodies, sexually abused her. Back in 2001, Mira Nair's Monsoon Wedding highlighted the issue and in 2010, Onir's I Am, told a heart-wrenching story of a boy who was sexually abused. "There are hardly any Bollywood films that highlight CSA. It is important for people to understand that CSA is not about trafficking. Considering the number of CSA cases in India, it is sad to note that it receives a step-brotherly treatment in Bollywood," says Onir.
Encouraging dialogue
Theatre, however, seems to have highlighted CSA more than films—30 Days in September, Black Bird and Bitter Chocolate to name a few. These plays have become a reference point for people wishing to delve deeper into the complexities of CSA.
Through his plays, Arvind Gaur, director of 30 Days in September (Hindi), who also theatrically adapted Pinki Virani's book, Bitter Chocolate, has often highlighted the need for change in people's attitude towards CSA. "People in India tend to push such sensitive topics under the carpet. Often during discussions held after my plays, people accuse me of showcasing our country in bad light but then, there are also a few members of the audience, who walk up to me and share their stories of being abused as children," he says.
According to Gaur, theatre and films help people understand the problem by spreading awareness and are a definite step forward in the search to collectively find solutions. "Through the medium of theatre, we hope to initiate some kind of action and bring about change," quips Gaur whose street-play group, Dastak, has conducted 3,500 shows across India, often touching upon sensitive topics.
Few takers
"In Bollywood, there is the danger of glamourising or sensationalising sensitive issues but I feel that a good film should make the audience carry home some pertinent questions," explains Onir, who read books and interacted with NGOs across India before working on his film, I Am, in which most characters have been inspired from real life. "Post the release of the film, I was bombarded with emails from people who confessed that they had been abused but had never thought that they could discuss it openly."
South Mumbai resident and actor Shernaz Patel's performance in Black Bird, a play showcasing child sexual abuse with a complex love story looming in the background, was greatly lauded. But she admits that it was her performance as a mother who turns a blind eye to her sexually abused son's plight due to her financial conditions in I Am, which had a greater impact. "Theatre caters to a niche audience while cinema has a wider reach. In theatre, it is all about survival. People turn to theatre to escape the realities of life. Find me an audience who will pay Rs 300 to step into a dark auditorium to watch a depressing movie," points out Patel.

Hey guys! It's me again with a NEW fanfic. Acording to your votes from my blog post, you wanted me to do a new fanfic. I am glad that you voted and i thank you. :D To those who voted a sequel to "i'm new" or "100 days" they'll have to wait for it a bit longer. i promise that after this story will be finished, i will make a sequel to one of the stories, maybe both.

I don't have much experience in writing angsty fanfiction but I hope this satisfies your otp hunger. (/snorts;) There are rated scenes, I'm not an expert in them si don't expect too much. I'll focus on their brotherhood more. ( inspired by Shut Up! Flower Boy Band )

I've never punched some time clock in this adult life. Within the last years, I've had this share of pros and cons in various companies (right now I'm inside a temporary "down" cycle), but I've always were able to "hang in there". We're consumed with the choose to become wealthy because of business ownership. I've been a loner, which often isn't all which bad, because I'll better focus upon, and ultimately finish whatever task i always have at present - uninterrupted. The downdide though is i always have very small amount of friends, noto help you interact and make a plan with (since my sister doesn't share great passion for business) - in which particular case the world would seem awfully lonely. I've reach the conclusion that more are generally accomplished by getting started with forces with other people who shares identical passion for entrapreneurship along with business ownership as i do. I morning multi-talented, conceptual, and also flexible and convenient, which helps me in with the ability to take a assignment from concept for you to reality stages accompanied by a minimum, if any sort of, outside help.

There is no great mystique to the marketing concept of positioning. While it's not as simple as some would make it seem, nor as complex as others would have you believe, it's still very real.
Like so many words used in marketing, positioning has come to be shorthand for some ideas that have come a long way in the pursuit of sound marketing practice. First popularized by Ries and Trout in their 1981 book, Positioning, the concept took a basic advertising practice and codified it in a way that made it possible for other marketers to think differently about approaches to the market.

US stocks fall, snapping streak of records
popular .
NEW YORK—US stocks fell Thursday, as buyers took a breather after a slate of successive record closes.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 22.50 (0.15 percent) to 15,082.62.
The broad-based S&P 500 dropped 6.02 (0.37 percent) to 1,626.67, snapping a string of five straight days of setting fresh closing records.
The tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index gave up 4.10 (0.12 percent) to 3,409.17.
The losses came on a day of mixed earnings reports and coincided with the US dollar breaching a key trading level against the yen, topping 100 yen for the first time in four years.
"In the final 90 minutes of the session, equities experienced volatility as the US dollar rallied above a key technical threshold against the Japanese yen which pushed stocks lower," said Charles Schwab & Co. in a market note.
Art Hogan of Lazard Capital Markets downplayed the correlation between a strong dollar and weaker equities, and attributed Thursday's modest decline primarily to market "exhaustion" after the rally in recent days.
Michael James of Wedbush Morgan Securities said traders have also been speculating that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke may signal a retreat on stimulus during a public appearance Friday in Chicago.
Petroleum company Apache Corp. missed earnings expectations, but rose 4.8 percent after announcing plans to divest $4 billion in assets by the end of 2013, $2 billion of which will be used to repurchase 30 million shares.
Online coupon company Groupon gained 11.5 percent after reporting earnings that met expectations and $601.4 million in revenues, more than the $588.9 million forecast.
Electric car manufacturer Tesla surged 24.0 percent after earnings came in triple expectations, and it raised its forecast for number of cars to be delivered in 2013. The company's Tesla Model S also earned an exceptionally high 99 out of a possible 100 from Consumer Reports.
Bond prices fell. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury rose to 1.81 percent from 1.76 percent late Wednesday, while the yield on the 30-year increased to 3.00 percent from 2.98 percent. Bond prices move inversely to yields.

The big day is near! The weather has certainly done its part to set the season's mood and people, for the most part, have been…well…nicer.
I've heard more people say "excuse me" and "thank you" in the last couple of weeks than since our 2009 Christmas season.
Guess everyone is making a serious move to get on the "good boy/girl" list.
Homes and yards have gone from the dull gray shades of winter to the beautiful lights of the season.
Nov. 27
- Lenora Young of Warren Acres in Lebanon reported the theft of a .22 pistol, white gold stone ring. The ring was recovered by the victim's family but the pistol is still missing. It's valued at $150.
Dec. 1
- Kenny Marrett of Northland Drive in Lebanon reported the theft of a Dewalt Radial arm saw worth $500 and a Hitachi nail gun worth $200. The items were removed from Marrett's pull-behind trailer.

This week's recipes are great for a Christmas morning brunch. It's good to have a couple of hot breakfast dishes on Christmas morning.
The first recipe is one from my friend Mary Jane Shockency. I found it in 1993 in a St. A cookbook, and have used it ever since.
The second recipe, Overnight Caramel French Toast, is kid-tested and Mother-approved, as they used to say on TV.
In response to record numbers of reported pertussis cases, the Kentucky Department for Public Health is urging Kentuckians to make sure their families are protected against pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough, by maintaining immunity through vaccination.
Cases reported statewide have increased from just 47 in 2007 to more than 250 in 2010 to date. This concerning upward trend has been recognized in areas across the United States.

Friday, the Marion County varsity boys' basketball team battled Campbellsville at the Roby Dome. From the opening tip, the two teams fought for the lead until midway through the fourth quarter when the Knights began to pull away. Marion County made 21 of 39 shots from inside the arc in the game for an impressive shooting percentage of 54 percent. The locals stretched the lead to 12 points late in the fourth period and went on to win the game by 10 points, with a final score of 57-47.
