There was a lot going on in the county in August 60 years ago. Everyone was preparing for the county fair to be held September 30. Miss Miriam Edwards was chair of the exhibiting committee and Bill Zorn was general chairman.
A larger tent was ordered due to increased premiums and a separate poultry tent was planned for the first time. The 4-H Club was preparing a poultry show.
Areas of competition included five Japanese persimmons; five-stalks green sugar cane; three-stalks red sugar cane; a display of fresh vegetables not over 3x3 feet square such as greens, peas, carrots, egg plant, okra, etc.; one quart kumquats in a glass jar; one grapefruit; one cushaw; one clear glass jar any variety pickles or relish; one pair pillow cases embroidered; one luncheon set or table cloth, crocheted; one hook rug; cypress knee or driftwood article; single cockerel, single hen; bantams (pairs); one goose; one rabbit.
Does anybody remember when the last Franklin County fair took place? If so, please contact the Times at 653-8868 or contact Lois Swoboda at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The following selection of articles from the Times' August 13, 1954 edition should give you a feel for some other things people were thinking about in 1954.
Channel cut through on Wednesday
The cut through St. George Island is thru.
Those are the words that this county has been waiting for many years.
The McCullough Dredge let the Gulf water into the channel at 11:18 on Tuesday night August 10 with a good array of spectators. Two boatloads of people from this city were there, having gone to the island in boats belonging to Fred Sawyer Jr. and Mannie Brash.
However, the dredging is not completed, as they still have to run out into the Gulf approximately 300 feet before the work is finished.
This dredging has created a lot of interest in folks hereabout and almost daily, somebody has been on the scene, watching the activities.
However, there are a number of people who cannot get to the island and it is believed that if some boat owner would start an excursion he could make him a profitable sum taking passengers to the island.
Tasso Russo slugged last Saturday night
Last Saturday night, about 9:30, as Tasso Russo entered his home, unknown assailants slugged him on the head, inflicting a gash on his forehead and caused him to have a very badly bruised eye.
It is believed that the motive for the slugging was robbery, but the person or persons who did the work escaped without taking the money from Mr. Russo's person.
Officers investigating the crime arrested three suspects but were later released. Mr. Russo says he has no idea who the persons were.
Too late to classify
Well, it seems that the "Flying Saucer" season is on again. I'm still one of the few individuals that hasn't seen one. Since I last mentioned the subject, I have listened to lectures on the subject, read half a dozen books dealing with the mysterious unidentified objects appearing in the skies throughout the world and watched diligently to no avail.
However, I am convinced that they do exist and believe that sooner or later we will have the answer. A press report from Delray Beach last week tells of flying saucer sightings over the Atlantic.
Getting closer to home, my son-in-law vacationing at the Gulf Beaches reports sighting a strange light in the sky over the Gulf. He is a pretty levelheaded chap and not inclined to go off Half-cocked about anything. He watched the light thinking it might be a star or meteor. It was close and too bright for a star and, unlike a meteor, it traveled across the sky in a horizontal position wobbling as it moved. No sound of any kind could be heard.
In Jacksonville, a good friend of mine, an official of the Florida Greyhound Lines, sighted a weird object traveling over the St. John's River. From Miami comes a report from another reputable official of a radio station of saucers seen in the area.
I have just finished reading "Flying Saucers from Outer Space" written by Major Donald Keyhoe of the U.S. Marine Corps. His amazing book is based on official reports of the U. S. Air force, and the Department of Defense in Washington credits him with being a reasonable accurate reporter who has cooperated effectively with the Air Force in its study of unidentified flying objects.
The Air Force and its investigating agency, "Project Bluebook" are aware of Major Keyhoe's conclusion that flying saucers are from another planet and does not deny that this possibility exists. Some of the personnel believe that they may be strange natural phenomenon completely unknown to us but that if the apparently controlled maneuvers reported by many competent observers are correct, then the only remaining explanation is the interplanetary answer.
Hundreds and hundreds of sightings have been reported from every section of the globe. Major Keyhoe has personally contacted and interviewed many of the people responsible for these reports. The pattern is uniform enough to indicate that whatever was seen in the United States, Canada, Australia, France, Korea, Austria, Germany and elsewhere is of a similar nature. The behavior of these flying objects is similar and would indicate that the Earth itself is under careful study and observation by intelligent beings who are concerned with life on this planet.
It is not unreasonable to assume that life exists on other planets and that inhabitants of such planets have advanced in knowledge to a point where they have been able to conquer the problem of space3 travel. It is equally reasonable to assume that before attempting to land or contact us they would gather all possible data before attempting a landing.
It is interesting to note that as far as the United States is concerned, most sightings have occurred over military bases particularly those identified with atomic research activity. This seems to hold true in other countries, indicating that our visitors from outer space are alert to our military activities and are interested in the progress we have made.
It does not appear that those strange visitors are unfriendly; on the contrary, they avoid contact and get out of the way in a hurry when we try to intercept them. They have paced our airlines and military planes on numerous occasions only to speed off at such a rapid rate that pursuit is impossible.
Like you, I don't know the answer, but I am convinced that there is one. It certainly feeds the imagination and I'm sure that it is nothing any of us need be afraid of.
The following week, there was excitement in Carrabelle when a prominent citizen was nearly killed in a freak accident.
Deputy Curley Messer nearly drowns Monday
Deputy sheriff Curley Messer escaped drowning and electrocution Monday in an unusual accident.
Curley was working with an electric drill on the dock when the extension cord dropped into the water thereby shocking him so severely he could not release the drill, and knocked him into the water.
His wife, who was standing nearby, grabbed a stick and knocked the cord from the socket, then lifted his body from the water. He was taken immediately to Tallahassee hospital.

RockeTalk bags honours for Mobile marketing company of the year at WAT Awards 2013
18th February 2013, Mumbai, India – On Friday night, in 5 star surroundings packed with leaders of the digital Industry across India, a VIP WAT Awards 2013 panel of Judges recognized RockeTalk with two prestigious awards for it's 'ground breaking' contribution to the evolution of the digital media market in India this year.
Against a field of more than 200 entries, RockeTalk scooped the Mobile Media campaign of the year for it's pioneering 'Nokia Channel Me' engagement concept which brought together a branded community of interest around Cricket and encouraged expression through videos, pictures and audio via mobile devices.
In the special category for Innovation at the conclusion of the evening, RockeTalk was further honoured with the overall award for Mobile Marketing Company of the year.
"With the mobile device rapidly becoming the primary screen not just for Indian consumers, but across the globe also, we strongly believe that digital spend will also transition to mobility when the formats permit" said Rajiv Dhingra, CEO WAT Consult. "Delivering a brand message effectively on a mobile device requires a fresh approach and an ability to think beyond the replication of web banners onto the smaller screen. We (the Judges) have been astonished by the pace of innovation shown by the RockeTalk team this year in pioneering new digital formats for mobile and believe they are worthy recipients of this overall recognition"
"We are thrilled with this recognition' added Sameer Agarwal, Chief Marketing Officer on receiving the awards, "at RockeTalk we think it is important not to be influenced by what has worked on the web. Mobile is a different medium with very different constraints, particularly in India and other emerging markets…having evolved the RockeTalk technology and service mix around the needs of 'mobile only' digital consumers, it is fun now to apply the same approach to bringing brands to this audience in ways that enhance rather than degrade the user experience' added Agarwal

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Sarah Shearman, brandrepublic.com, Thursday, 23 June 2011 12:58PM
Speaking at an event at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and posting an announcement on YouTube today (23 June), JK Rowling said Pottermore was a "unique online experience, built around the reader's imagination" and would contain information she had "been hording for years".
The site, created by Th_nk, the digital agency, launches in October. However, one million fans will be able to enter from 31 July, Harry Potter's birthday.
Rowling said fans would be able to "read the same online stories with a crucial addition – the imagination of the reader".
They will be able to participate and rediscover stories, as well as purchasing eBook versions of the Harry Potter novels for the first time, as well as audio versions.
Adam & Eve has handled the launch marketing strategy for Pottermore, which was unveiled this morning in a leaked PR document, while Essence Digital has handled the global media plan and management.
Project partners include Warner Bros, which created the films, Sony, and publishers Random House, Bloomsbury and Barnes & Noble.
Potter fans have been tantalised with a Pottermore "coming soon" website, featuring a countdown-to-launch for the past week, two years after the Pottermore trademark was first registered.
It was widely speculated that the announcement would unveil a Harry Potter online treasure hunt, with real-life prizes.
The first Harry Potter book 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' was published in the UK in 1997. Rowling has since published six more books in the series, but has made clear her plans not to write any more Harry Potter novels.

Johannesburg — A round-up of the day's news from around South Africa.
Lonmin mine workers arrested last week on charges including murder, attempted murder and assault appeared in the Ga-Rankuwa Magistrate's Court on Monday afternoon. About 100 women protestors appeared outside court to appeal for leniency for the men, many of who are the sole breadwinners in their families. They prayed as the men arrived, singing, in prison vans. The court heard that 260 men were arrested after the violent protests at Lonmin's Marikana mine. Only 39 of the men appeared in court before magistrate Esau Bodigelo before he postponed the case until 27 August for further investigation. Murder charges will be levelled at some of the mineworkers arrested. Ten people were killed before police turned on the strikers, killing 34 on Thursday.
Advocates For Transformation has pledged to do everything in its power to assist the families of the dead and injured in the Marikana massacre "to deal with the legal consequences of these unfortunate events", its chairman, Dumisa Ntsebeza said in a statement. "There is neither freedom nor dignity in death, however it comes, the recent events in Marikana have left most members of the AFT shocked," Ntsebeza said. Ntsebeza said AFT worked hard at developing alternative dispute resolutions aimed at resolving labour disputes without violence. AFT said the commission of inquiry due to be set up by President Jacob Zuma this week "should have the Lonmin management, the board and shareholders, the South African Police Services give explanation as to how this crisis developed to this point, as should the Minister of Minerals, given that the death of the 34 on Thursday was preceded by 10 lives that had been lost up to that point."
A small number of the Marikana mine workforce, estimated to be about a third of the number who went on strike 10 days ago, returned to work on Monday. This followed a threat by mine owner Lonmin to dismiss the strikers just days after police killed 34 miners on Thursday. Lonmin told Reuters it did not yet have enough workers at their posts to produce ore, and officials from the small Solidarity union of highly skilled workers said at least 80% of the workforce is needed to bring platinum out of the shafts. The mine owner said in a statement that operations had resumed and it had moved the deadline for strikers to return to work to Tuesday.
Nelson Mandela's granddaughter was killed as a result of excessive speed, an accident specialist told the Johannesburg Magistrate's court on Monday. The car in which Zenani Mandela was returning from the 2010 World Cup opening ceremony was moving at an estimated speed of 162km/h in an 80km/h zone when it crashed on a bend on the M1. Expert Craig Proctor-Parker said he had not used any instruments to make his calculation, but that he had used his "naked eye". The court heard that skid marks were usually measured with instruments to calculate the speed of a car, but Procter-Parker it wouldn't have made a difference as it was clear what had happened. The driver, Sizwe Mankazana, 25, faces a charge of culpable homicide and reckless and negligent driving.
The Democratic Alliance spokeswoman on police, Dianne Kohler-Barnard, has blasted national police commissioner Riah Phiyega, saying she condoned the deaths at Lonmin mine in Marikana. "On the same day that President Jacob Zuma declared a week of national mourning, Phiyega said that police officers should not be sorry for the deaths of 34 protesters at Marikana," Kohler-Barnard said in a statement. "This shows a gross lack of empathy in a time when SA Police Service members need a leader with an iron-clad moral compass to assist them to make sense of this tragedy." Kohler-Barnard said although it was still to be established if the police acted unlawfully, or in self-defence, Phiyega's excusing the police's behaviour could not be tolerated in a time when tensions were high.
The minister of trade industry will not renew the contract of controversial national consumer commissioner, Mamodupi Mohlala-Mulaudzi, a spokesman for the department said on Monday. "The minister [Rob Davies] reiterated his preference for an open, competitive process, and declined to accede to Mohlala-Mulaudzi's request for an automatic renewal of her contract," the department said in a statement.
Mohlala-Mulaudzi's attorneys were notified of the decision on 17 August, and her contract would expire on September 3, the department said in a statement. Mohlala-Mulaudzi was fired from her position of director general by former communications minister, Siphiwe Nayanda, and appointed to the position as consumer commissioner as part of a settlement deal by the department of public service and administration.
The 'middleman' at the centre of the Anni Dewani murder case was not paid for his part in the contract killing. The man, who may not be named by order of the court, has turned state witness. He told the Western Cape High Court there was no promise of money, a fact disputed by the accused's lawyer, Matthews Dayimani, who said taxi driver Zola Tongo would testify that he offered R5,000 to the witness to arrange the murder. The accused, Xolile Mngeni, is the man who allegedly pulled the trigger when Anni Dewani lost her life in an apparent car hijacking while on honeymoon with her husband Shrien in Cape Town in November 2010. Mngeni has pleaded not guilty to charges of kidnapping, robbery with aggravating circumstances, murder, and the illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.

Korean People's Effort to Build Thriving Nation Hailed
| Pyongyang, February 7 (KCNA) -- Baluchistan Times, a Pakistani newspaper, carried an article titled "Strength of Korea" in its January 30th issue on the occasion of the birthday of leader Kim Jong Il.
The article said that as the DPRK has tremendous strength the U.S. does not dare to provoke.
Its military power has grown stronger after Kim Jong Il gained the supreme commandership of the Korean People's Army and the chairmanship of the DPRK National Defence Commission, the article stressed.
He formulated the Songun politics as the basic political mode of socialism and has strengthened the KPA into invincible armed forces through his ceaseless field guidance to the army, it noted.
In the society of the DPRK the leader, the party and the masses are one community united by the common destiny, it said, adding: General Secretary Kim Jong Il is the center of the single-minded unity of the whole society and its ideological basis is the Juche idea, the Songun idea.
The Korean people having tremendous national power will surely hit the goal of building a great, prosperous and powerful socialist nation in the near future, the article said.

User:CiaranP/Yoshema's Lab
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Game show famous world wide, originaly broadcast in 1999 from Tokyo, Japan. For other versions of the show, see Yoshema's Lab (Disambiguation).
edit Format
The show's classic format has not really been altered much since the original broadcast of the show in 1999, appart from a fiew minor changes, here and there. One million start, go through loads of deadly shit, and one comes out victorious, and alive. We all know how those Japs love death.
edit Round 1
The competition begins with round one "The Great Escape", where one million contestants come into a massive warehouse, and the doors are locked and sealed. The only way out… A small one meter squared hole in the middle of the ceiling - fifty foot above the ground, and the contestants. The only light visible is the natural light from the exit, to give the contestants some sort of hope… The first 250,000 contestants to make it through the exit continue to the next round. But how do they make it to the exit? The warehouse is slowly filled with water, and the contestants must float up to the exit hole, and escape the warehouse. After the 250,000th person escapes to the next round, the exit is locked and sealed. The contestants left in the warehouse after this are trapped in, as the water level continues to rise, until they all drown. In the show's first year this round went slightly different, where instead of letting the remaining die, the main doors to the warehouse were opened, allowing the contestants who failed to make it through to the next round out. After the show's producers decided death kept the viewers happy, they used the failing contestants in a later round that involved killing your way through a maze full of people dressed totally in black, with strong electric shocks. This round was altered in later series of the show.
edit Round 2
Round two is known as "The Lion's Den". After contestants make it out of the warehouse in "The Great Escape", they find themselves on a rooftop. They make their way down a steel spiral staircase, to the entrance to a massive labyrinth. The contestants must simply make it to the centre of the labyrinth, which happens to have ten fully grown African lions roaming it, which have been starved for days in advanced of the competition. Too easy? The contestants must race through the labyrinth (which covers just over one square mile) with a plastic container full of petrol strapped to their back. What's so bad about this, you may ask yourself? There is a small detonator on the inside of the canister, and if the contestant doesn't make it to the centre of the labyrinth , or the "Safe Zone", in under 10 minutes, the canister will blow up, taking the contestant with it. The canisters are also tamper-proof. If any contestant attempts to remove or tamper with the canister, it will explode. And as if this all isn't enough, the labyrinth is full of moving walls, booby traps, and several areas of quick sand. After ten minutes has passed, the detonators of any contestants that have failed to make it to the safe zone will send a small spark, igniting the petrol inside the canister, and literally vaporising the contestant un-lucky enough to be wearing it.
edit Round 3
The "lucky" contestants who managed to make it through the labyrinth to the safe zone at the centre find a manhole, with a ladder leading contestants down below the ground, to a massive bunker used during the second world war. The bunker, however, has been adjusted. It has been transformed into a massive laser tag arena for the third round, dubbed "Out of the Frying Pan…". At this stage in last years show there were just over 82,000 contestants left. Once they make it to the bunker, they must remove the petrol canisters from their backs, and change into some specially rigged "protective" body armour, and get their specially adapted laser guns. The body armour is rigged so that each time the contestant wearing it is shot, an electric charge is sent through their body, and each time they are shot the electric charge increases in voltage, and the amount of time the charge lasts slightly, until the contestant is killed. This round continues for as long as it takes, ending only when there are 3,000 contestants left. In the second series of the show, some contestants thought it a smart idea to find somewhere and hide until the round is over. To avoid this happening again, the contestants are now fitted with infra red goggles, and the bunker is pitch black, meaning that contestants can only see heat. If contestants do not move for a certain period of time, an electric charge is sent through their bodies, to keep the game interesting for the average ninety minutes this round lasts. Once only 3,000 contestants remain in the competition, an Electro Magnetic Pulse is detonated, disabling all electronic equipment in the bunker. Neon strip lighting in the ceiling comes on, and the contestants must make their way to the surface through the massive bunker, to the main entrance, cunningly disguised as a shed, at the back of a farm.
edit Round 4
"The Farm" is the fourth round in the competition, where contestants must make it across a farm. This is, however, a specially rigged farm. It is full booby traps, set to shoot anyone unlucky enough to trigger them with a dart full of LSD. The ridiculous amount in this dart starts it's effect's almost immediately, causing strong physical and mental stimulation. In previous years, the dart's caused either instant death, constant twitching until they drop to the ground and loose all control of their body, or in some cases the drug can have no apparent effects at first, but eventually causing contestants to go into a psychedelic trip, until they die from the fatal overdose they're body has suffered. The contestants who make it out of the farm alive continue onto the next round, but to do this they must make it to the front gate. This is the only exit, as the farm is surrounded by 10 foot hedges, concealing high voltage electric fences. In the first year, this round was thought to be too easy, so the producers introduced mines in the ground, and a large farm house that contestants must make their way through.
edit Finale
After this round, the remaining contestants must walk along a small country road to the main television set, to the awaiting audience. For this, the first stage of the finale, the contestants are given a t-shirt with an individual number on it as they enter the set, and must line up in front of the live audience of thousands, and the audience of millions worldwide. The public then has the opportunity to help some of the contestants, by voting through phone, text, or interactively (pushing the red button), using the number on the contestant they wish to helps t-shirt. The lines are left open for 10 minutes, and after this, the votes are counted. After this, the ten contestants with the most votes win a fast track pass to the final stage of the finale, and are led offstage to a waiting room. This stage in the finale was added in the second year of the competition, when producers that the show required more revenue than sponsorship alone.
edit Stage 1
The contestants who did not get voted through to the final stage are then led offstage to the first stage of the final, known as "The Bridge above Pointy Rocks". Contestants must race across the small rope bridge, and not fall. Historically, Chin Chon, winner of the 2003 contest, got across the bridge first, and cut the ropes. This led to him causing the death of all the remaining contestants, and a lengthy jail sentence for mass-murder. Chin still gets to see his child, during visiting hours.

Hettie Jones, nee Cohen, was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1934 to a middle-class Jewish family.

Married to LeRoi Jones (Amiri Baraka) in 1958, with whom she has two daughters, they were divorced in 1966 due in part to the pressure of being a biracial couple during the 1960s. LeRoi's political and artistic leanings beginning to sway toward the radical Black Art Movement, as well as his infidelity (including with Diane di Prima, another female Beat poet of the period) also contributed to the divorce.

'American Idol': Colton Dixon plays us a song, he's the 'Piano Man'Add to Favorites | American Idol
We have to confess - even though "Piano Man" is a natural choice for Colton Dixon on "American Idol's" Billy Joel week, we were hoping he'd go a little less overplayed and pick something like "The Stranger" or "Pressure."
But "Piano Man" was the call and it was a good one. There were just enough change-ups to the melody line to stylize it his own way, but not so much so that the song was unrecognizable. The judges loved it too. Steven Tyler gave a particularly astute critique when he said, "Your choice of chords when your voice resolved was stunning. Just outrageous. You're a great musician and a great singer."
And Randy added, "You gave a very sensitive, touching, moving performance on one of his classics." What did you think, "Idol" fans? Did Colton win the night?

The Maidan (literally open field) is the largest urban park in Kolkata in the Indian state of West Bengal. It is a vast stretch of field and home to numerous play grounds, including the famous cricketing venue Eden Gardens, several football stadia, and Kolkata Race Course. Maidan is dotted with several statues and pieces of architecture, most notable being the Victoria Memorial. It was once home to the oldest golf club outside Great Britain - the Royal Calcutta Golf Club. Due to the freshness and greenery it provides to the metropolis, it has been referred to as the "lungs of Kolkata". Maidan is a property of the Indian Army, and hosts the Fort William, the Eastern zone high command of the Indian Army.
In 1909, H.E.A.Cotton wrote, "The great Maidan presents a most refreshing appearance to the eye, the heavy night dew, even in the hot season, keeping the grass green. Many of the fine trees with which it was once studded were blown down in the cyclone of 1864. But they have not been allowed to remain without successors, and the handsome avenues across the Maidan still constitute the chief glory of Calcutta. Dotting the wide expanse are a number of fine tanks, from which the inhabitants were content in former days to obtain their water-supply."
"The oldest road on the Maidan is the Course, extending from the 'Cocked hat' in the north to the Khidirpur bridge. The 'broad gravelled walk' on the west side of that portion is the Red Road, constructed in 1820. To the south of the fort is the Ellenborough Course, meant for horse exercises, and towards the east is the Race Course, started in 1819. That was the scenario a century back."
The Raj Bhawan was built in 1803, the 48 metres high Octerlony Monument in 1848,the museum was started in the Asiatic Society in 1814 but shifted to the present site as Indian Museum in 1887, St. Paul's Cathedral was built between 1839 and 1847, it was consecrated in 1874, and the Victoria Memorial came up in 1921. On Council House Street, at one corner of the Maidan was the long-defunct Fort William College, which played a pioneering role in the development of many of the Indian languages, particularly Bengali.
The cricket stadium at Eden Gardens came up in stages. Amongst the later additions are – Netaji Indoor Stadium, the M.P.Birla Planetarium,Rabindra Sadan, Academy of Fine Arts, and Nandan.
Chowringhee, part of the north-south lifeline of Kolkata came up with the Maidan along what was the old road made by the Sabarna Roy Choudhurys, the old zemindars of Calcutta, from Barisha, where the junior branch resided, to Halisahar, which was the seat of the senior branch.The Tollygunj-Esplanade section of Metro Railway took a little over seven years to build disturbing activity on the eastern end of the MaidanThe stations bordering on the Maidan as one travels from the south are Maidan, Park Street and Esplanade.
The Howrah Bridge has been away from the Maidan but the second Hooghly bridge, Vidyasagar Setu, overlooks at least one corner of the Maidan and Fort William.
The Maidan has been the venue for major political meetings and rallies of all political parties. However, cleaning up the Maidan after a rally is over has become a sore point. The army authorities have decided to levy a caution money from organisers of the rallies and an undertaking to clear the litter in a bid to make the Maidan pollution-free.
When the curtains came down on the 29th Kolkata Book Fair in 2004, with a record footfall of 2,475,000 (nearly two and half million) the organisers announced that they had already applied for permission to hold the fair the following year to the police commissioner and defence authorities.
In 2005, The Statesman, a leading Kolkata newspaper wrote, "The Kolkata Book Fair may well have had its last outing on the Maidan… In recent years, almost every part of the Maidan has been used to host all manners of melas and fairs. This, obviously, can't continue… Our courts of justice are now taking cognizance. The military too has woken up to its environmental responsibility. Even business houses have apparently become concerned. At this rate, it might seem the lungs of Kolkata, and of the people who inhabit it, still have some hope. With both the chief minister and the chief secretary assuring that it was the last year that fairs were to be held at the Maidan, as the permanent trade fair complex along the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass, thereafter the venue for trade fairs, the Kolkata Book Fair and other fairs, was yet to be completed, the army authorities allowed the Book Fair to be held on the Maidan for the last time in 2006.
The drama to organise the book fair on the Maidan started again in 2007 but Kolkata High Court gave the Kolkata Book Fair its marching orders from the Maidan. The Book Fair was finally held in the Yuba Bharati Krirangan in 2007. Other fairs were shifted out earlier. However, there still are people who think that the Kolkata Book Fair cannot be properly be organised, except on the Maidan.
(When all the lasses have started learning the alphabet, picking up the book, feigning to be English ladies, they will definitely splash the tongue foreign; Brothers, wait for few more days! And you will be able to have a look, they will drive to the grounds of the fort for roaming around, commanding the rein.)
People did not have to wait for long. After Jyotirindranath Tagore (1849 1925) taught his wife, Kadambari, horse-riding on the Maidan defying the conservative society of the time, Bengali society could never be the same again.
During the British Raj white soldiers were stationed in Fort William. When they came out on the Maidan for strolls, they used to kick Bengali boys they found on the Maidan. The Bengali boys were too timid to protest against it. Sarala Devi Chaudhurani (1872 1945) was deeply shocked at the cowardly behaviour of the youngsters. She introduced the Birastami brata as part of Durga Puja wherein youngsters took the oath to stand up bravely against all sorts of oppression. It subsequently inspired the youth of the country to lay down their lives in the freedom struggle.
Indian cricket began its long journey with a two day match on the Maidan in January 1804 between old Etonians employed by the East India Company.World's oldest hockey tournament, Beighton Cup was instituted in 1895, and is usually held on the Mohun Bagan ground in the Maidan.For the Indian Football Association, the Maidan has been the nerve centre.
The Maidan is not just cricket, football and hockey, apart of course from army parades. It is so many things to so many people. There are washermen who wash clothes and themselves in its ponds, shepherds tend their flocks, the health conscious citizens take their morning walks, the last vestiges of the horse-drawn hackney carriages ply on its fringes entertaining merry makers and businessmen make money. When Jamshedji Framji Madan entered the 'bioscope' scene in 1902, he bagn to screen films in tents one of which was set up on the Maidan. In Satyajit Ray's film Jana Arayanya there is a shot showing two unemployed young men, observing the sprawling urban comedy around them on the Maidan, identify the typical office clerk in the crowd. He is presented in a long shot, puny against the towering though squalid cityscape, trudging home after a nine-to-five day. Life on the Maidan is the quintessece of life in Kolkata.

I wonder about his interview. Does it mean the Eagles may already have their guy in hand? It's obvious his interview will be the Rooney Rule qualifier and being a former Temple guy he's taking one for the team, but I see no chance of him getting the job. I wonder if the Eagles already have their main guy targeted, but need to get that Rooney Rule thing out the way before they sign their guy. Any thoughts?
12 Comments:
Who cares. this thing is such a cluster phuck that its gonna take a genius to unravel this mess. Im almost ready to jet for a while. Il like the people in they yard and Ive been here the longest but frankly Im fast becoming bored and unenthusiastic about this team. Give me some hope EZ because right now I see bad times ahead .
I don't think it's my responsibility to motivate you to root for the team you claim to be rooting for. You wanted Reid out and he's gone, but you cry and whine twice as much. You still upset your Cowboys lost or is it cause now the Ray Lewis is out the do your Ravens will fall back to being an average team again?
Your funny. But, Im just stating facts . Right now the Eagles rank with the Chiefs or am I wrong? The Cowboys? I couldnt care less. Ray lewis? Well if the Eagles could score a single player in 15 years with his heart the Eagles would have that elusive ring. Instead of worrying about the Ravens you should worry about the Eagles finding a guy like Ray to take them all the way.
They already had that guy. They call him Wolverine!
I honestly think part of him is upset because deep down he loves to whine and his #1 target is gone. Why else would a 50 year old man go to the Charger's and the Cardinal's yards and start a "Don't let your team hire Andy Reid" war cry (reminiscent of his call for boycotts). The funny thing (besides hollywood thinking that people would actually listen to him and also thinking he can stop Reid from being hired )the only two people posting on the article and the hollywood post were the two of us. It was so empty in those two yards I swear I heard crickets.
Good question and honestly I don't have an answer to that, but I do think the NFL abuses the Rooney Rule. With that being the case some Rooney retreads went on to eventually geT coaching jobs like Lovie Smith, Frazier with the Vikings, and Ron Rivera so maybe it's good to keep it going.
do they want a colored person to win a superbowl? And please spare me the token Doug Williams strike season.
Colored person?????
dawk mentioned colored coach just adds more intrigue to the question
Dude. That's so 1950s

A former U.S. government scientist pleaded guilty to charges of trying to sell classified information to Israel.
Stewart Nozette, who was caught in an FBI sting operation in October 2009, pleaded guilty Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.
As part of a plea bargain, Nozette was sentenced to 13 years in prison, with credit for the two years he has served since being arrested, according to reports. Nozette was determined to be a flight risk when he was jailed.
He is accused of asking for $2 million from an FBI agent posing as an Israeli intelligence officer in 2009 in exchange for the information.
Nozette held security clearances as high as top secret and had access to classified information until at least 2006, according to the Washington Post. He has knowledge about the U.S. nuclear missile program and helped discover evidence of water on the moon's southern pole.

The Space
Beautiful light-filled 1st floor apartment in a magical compound nestled in a canyon 4 blocks from the Jardin (main plaza). Private patio and garden. Fully equipped kitchen. Internet. WiFi.Cable. Parking. Pet friendly. It is like living in the country yet you are just minutes away from the heart of San Miguel. There is a spectacular 4th floor terrace for seeing the sunset or sunbathing with a gorgeous view over the churches and mountains. Casa Dharma is just a few minute walk from Juarez Park, The Rosewood and Matilda. A lovely apartment with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Colorfully and comfortably decorated. Historic colonial design and lovely Mexican colors and charm.
You are surrounded by an incredible array of many excellent restaurants, shops, art galleries, and lovely sights just minutes away, as well as many other interesting and fun things to do!
Patricia has lived here for over 30 years and is a gracious and helpful hostess. She can help you design a retreat or vacation depending on what you are looking for. Her specialty is in Wellness & Healing and Tibetan Buddhist retreats. She can also set up local sight seeing tours, hot springs outings or set up culinary, art or cultural tours.

We would love to have you come and stay with us! Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
Guest Access
You have access to the garden and 4th floor terrace with a spectacular view of the town and canyon.
Interaction with Guests
I live on the property and love assisting my guests in whatever they may need. I aim to be invisibly available. I can also help you plan personal retreats.
The Neighborhood
Our location is very special. We are tucked away on a cul-de-sac. Close enough to the action yet removed just enough to provide a sense of spaciousness.
Getting Around
There are taxis and buses available throughout town.
Please let us know in advance when you will be arriving so that we can figure out the best way to get you the keys. Please be respectful of others in the compound. It is OK to party but do so quietly after 12 am. Please lock all doors when you leave the building. If you lose your keys please let us know immediately.

Very good house on the mountain with wild environment,I like the decoration,location is also good,15 minutes walking to the Centro.
When we arrived we were greated by Patricia and Rodrigo and they welcomed us and got us a bit settled in. We had no information about restaurants or where to go for groceries and they were very helpful getting us in the right direction. The apartment had old world charm, lots of gardens and greenery and the beds were very comfortable! It was located just a few blocks from town and was a great location, but to get to town you must walk down from the hill. I would advise taking a taxi back up to the apartment at the end of the day. ($40pesos)
This was my second time staying with Patricia in San Miguel de Allende, but the first time staying in this apartment. The photos of Casa Dharma are very accurate. Spacious, clean, eclectic and surrounded by nature! Little touches like fresh flowers, and a massive bowl of fruit greeted us upon our entry.The master bedroom opened to a private terrace, surrounded by trees which was very nice for sitting out. Patricia as usual was a very gracious and helpful hostess. Even though she was busy, she was always available by phone. There was also a binder on the coffee table explaining everything from the internet password to take-out menus. She does warn you that there are fireworks that go off almost nightly from 4am onwards, but if you're expecting it, it's fairly easy to ignore, or maybe I'm just a deep sleeper.
She has two dogs, both of whom are very sweet and affectionate. If you're not a dog lover, they'll leave you alone, however we love dogs and enjoyed having them around.
I'll definitely be staying with Patricia again!
Tal como las fotos, la pasamos súper bien y nos sentimos como en casa. Definitivamente volveremos pronto.
La casa es bonita y acogedora, limpia y con todo lo necesario. El barrio es tranquilo y muy cerca del centro.
No pudimos conocer personalmente a Patricia pero se encargó de que todo estuviera bien durante nuestra estancia.
The unit is as described by Patricia. If you want a quiet and natural setting away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown, this is the place for you. The furniture is comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. Even though there are a few other rental units within this gated compound, the property remains serene and introspective. Renters are allowed to use the host's upper terrace for incredible views of the city. It's a few blocks walk to the beautiful Juarez Park and about a 15 minute walk to the Jardin. Yes, there are cobblestones to negotiate so don't wear heals. Patricia was very nice and accommodating during our stay. FYI, there are 3 large, but friendly, dogs that live on-site.
This host has 122 reviews for other properties.View Other Reviews

AVANI.. a handful of dust
- Creative Notes
a dance theatre presentation by Anita Ratnam and ensemble
Director-Choreographer Note:
Hari Krishnan - Director
Anita Ratnam - Choreographer-performer
This is our 15th dance-theatre collaboration. Since 1997, abstracting mythology has been an integral theme in our collaborative process. Harnessing Anita's diverse/versatile skills set in new, experimental and original veins has been critical to my role as her director and choreographic third -eye. We are interested in creating stark, organic and potent structures to house the movement structure. Avani/Handful of Dust has propelled us for the first time in a new direction - paying tribute to a genius of world literature: Gurudev Tagore. No gods and goddesses here! His elusive poetry, lush with Indian imagery and rich in metaphors allows me to blur the parameters of traditional narrative vocabulary and explore unfamiliar dimensions in abstract movement, staging geometry, minimalist architectonics and contrarian emotional landscapes. Spanning intensive creative workshop sessions from Chennai to Connecticut we "aggressively" ideated, created, improvised, and distilled world-dance/ theatre that spoke from the heart of the Tagore in us. Avani is our personal meditation with Gurudev at a "global Shantiniketan" in the 21st century.
Visual Designer's Note:
REX - Stage and Visual Design
Tackling Tagore on stage is a Herculean challenge! How does one manifest/articulate his singular genius through dance while retaining his resonance in a contemporaneous vein? After much "head banging on the wall", I chose to design a text-based environment in which to house the interpreters thus allowing them the grace to borrow the essence/energy of Tagore's eternal words. Gurudev's writings incarnate as the principal protagonist animating fellow travelers on a non-linear, pioneering, mystical journey to inhabit his forever pertinent, renaissance world. I hope "reading" our Avani will leave you with an aching heart akin to the one that Tagore's poetry kindles….

New health care organizations offer reward, risk
"At this time I cannot tell our board how the ACO is doing financially, but my expectation is that, in mid-February I will have a much better picture," Fleury said.
Others are not so far along.
Standing in a small office in Spring Valley, Dr. Venu Prabaker is visibly excited at the prospect of getting a bonus for doing everything he, and his fellow doctors, can to keep people well.
"Every emergency room visit we can prevent is saving the system something like $16,000. Avoiding a hospital admission is saving more like $30,000," said Prabaker, who is part of the San Diego Independent ACO.
Preventing admissions, he said, is a matter of closely following up with patients to make sure they are taking the correct medications at the right times and that they are coming in for regular checkups to catch new problems before they grow.
The group would split any savings with the government 50/50 and has the potential to earn up to $2.5 million in a year. Unlike pioneer ACOs, which get a 60/40 split, regular ACOs agree to receive a smaller share of the savings in exchange for receiving no penalty in the first two years of the three-year program.
Of course, one easy way to reduce expenditures per Medicare beneficiary is to simply deny treatment. But under the ACO program, doing so would be counterproductive.
The program includes a total of 33 performance measures that range from a patient's opinion of the care their doctor provides to how well their blood pressure is controlled.
If organizations like San Diego Independent don't meet the quality thresholds, they will get no bonus even if they do manage to shrink total Medicare billings.
Dr. Bryan Fox, another physician leader in the new organization, said he believes it is possible to meet the guidelines and still save money. He said some commercial insurance companies already have similar programs.
"We already do this with our senior HMO and commercial programs. Now, not only will we save money, but we will also reap some financial benefit," Fox said.
For all ACOs the risk/reward calculation includes upfront costs that must be borne by the health organization out-of-pocket.
For Sharp, that has meant adding a host of new programs like conducting a fall assessment for each assigned patient, and hiring additional care coordinators to help patients better manage chronic diseases like diabetes, Fleury said.
Most of those additional services, she said, are not covered by Medicare. Sharp has spent more than $400,000 in the first year, and expects to spend $5 million this year, on services tailored to meeting the quality requirements.
Fleury said she does not expect to get a final decision on whether Sharp has earned a bonus until July.
While she said the delay is frustrating, the executive added that it's important to understand that Sharp is participating in a pilot program that, if successful, could change the way health care is delivered nationwide.
"We spent a lot of time evaluating whether we wanted to go forward with this. Medicare's not sustainable. We all know that. We wanted to be part of the solution. My greatest hope is that we've at least covered the cost of our involvement," she said.

"This invitation was excellent for our engagement. The design was simple and chic! The paper quality was exactly what we expected. Thank you Tiny Prints!"
"I have a friend that has been very particular about the way her baby shower can go - she's not into baby fru-fru stuff and wants a classy shower without all of the cartoony nonsense. Since that is mostly whats out there, this was going to be a challenge. I happened upon the tiny prints website and immediatly noticed this card. SHOES?? For a baby shower card? Even better , my friend is OBSESSED with shoes (she owns over 200 pair). The colors annd fonts were very classy and I thought it was perfect - and so did she - she LOVES them. When I placed the order I made a mistake and the company corrected it right away and turned the printing and shipping around in less than 24 hours over a weekend! I am so impressed with the experience I have had with this company. Great service - high quality product. The cards are stunning! Thank you!"
"This invitation was even better than expected. The paper quality was very durable and the design looked even better once I received it. Shipping was also quicker than expected."
"With a career background in direct marketing and publishing, I was highly impressed with the quality, colors, images and turnaround of this card. The quality of the paper and printing exceeded my expectations. I received many compliments from recipients for this card. I used the card for my babyshower."

I can see why they were proud of their house. The additions were worked in so well that I would never have known that it wasn't like that from the start. How sad that they had to sell it.

Abril de del efemerides mes
For to-morrow abril de del efemerides mes priest shall awake, And the names be named of the victims to bleed for the nations abril de del efemerides mes And first of the numbered many that shall be slain ere noon, Rua the child of the dirt, Rua the kinless loon. For him shall the drum be beat, for him be raised the song, For him to the sacred High-place the chaunting people throng, For him the oven smoke as for a speechless beast, And the sire of my Taheia come greedy to the feast. Rua, be silent, spare me. Taheia closes her ears. Pity my yearning heart, pity my girlish years. Flee from the cruel hands, flee from the knife and coal, Lie hid in the deeps of the woods, Rua, sire of my soul.

A concept in games with multiple characters, a screen with pictures of all playable characters with the possibility of stat listings.
A point within the game whereby the game saves its current state whether it be for the purpose of a more convenient respawn point or a gameplay design (such as in racing).
The act of removing dirt, dust, or other unwanted matter from a surface.
Typically found in fighting games, combos are a series of strung-together moves.
Games that ask the player whether they are sure about the decision that they have just made.
The ultimate pressure feature. You have to complete the task at hand, be it finishing your opponent or cutting the right wire, in the allotted time depending on which game you're playing. So be quick or you lose.
A quick burst of speed that propels the player slightly forward or backwards.
Sometimes designers add old-school things on purpose to enhance game design.
A double jump is the ability to jump while already in mid-air to get some extra lift. In reality, double jumps are not possible and violate fundamental laws of physics.
This concept is for games where the main playable character is female.

Map Makers or Editors are built-in tools that allow the average gamer to tweak or fully customize a map of their own, with no mod or programming skills required.
"Indie" or "independently developed" games are video games which are developed by a studio without the support of an external publisher.
A combo that can be extended indefinitely. They are often unintentional inclusions in the game, though they undeniably shape the games for better or worse
A heavily armored soldier in the service of a lord or cause. Typically a champion of good and a defender of the innocent.

TG drives the Jaguar XKR-S in Norway
The Jaguar XKR-S is a special car in need of a special road. Thankfully, the Norwegians made sure it got one...
Posted: 16 Nov 2011
Twisting between granite moraines and icy lakes, we climb and climb, the damp-green vegetation fading to snow. The sky is heavy, the scenery magnificent and other-worldly, brutal and beautiful. You can see how Norse mythology became so rich and weird: it's easier to imagine this landscape being shaped by temperamental deities than by the actions of mere wind and water. The XKR-S picks its way light-footedly along the skinny path.

Coach Ed Flaherty has become a regional legend and an NACB Hall of Famer in his 22 years as Head Coach of Southern Maine. With a career record of 689 and 301 (.695 winning percentage), Coach Flaherty figures to cross into rarefied air with the potential to win his 700th game for the Huskies in 2009. The Huskies will also be going for their third national DIII title in 2009 after falling short in the Northeast Regional against the Trinity (CT) juggernaut this past spring. Coach Flaherty graduated from Maine, where he played baseball. He was inducted into the University of Maine Hall of Fame in 1992, the State of Maine Baseball Hall of Fame in 1993 and the National Association of Baseball Coaches Hall of Fame in 2005.
We at TCBB would like to thank Coach Flaherty for taking the time to talk with us and wish him the best of luck in the upcoming season.

Providenciales has limited shopping opportunities compared to other destinations. We don't have any malls or large shopping centres and there are hardly any international chains here. Nearly all tourist-oriented shopping is located in the Grace Bay area, which consists of mostly jewellery and souvenir shops.
Customs Allowances for information on how much stuff you can bring back duty free to your home country.
There isn't any local 'must-buy' souvenirs, and indeed there are actually few souvenirs actually produced in the country.
Konk Apparel is a local fashion brand which manufactures a range of clothes and accessories.
Island Roast is a locally ground and roasted coffee (although it isn't grown here). Some shops feature sculptures or ornaments made from conch shells produced by local craftsmen. Finally, there are a few local artists with their paintings for sale, but many paintings you see marketed as local aren't from the Turks and Caicos but rather Haiti (see below).
Turks and Caicos Coins, available for purchase at the local treasury. Next up is art from the Haitian Community. Some is locally produced but much of it is simply imported from Haiti. A common form of Haitian art is painted sheet metal sculptures, which is for sale in many local shops, including at the airport. Haitian paintings are also for sale in many shops with varying price ranges, but are generally mid-priced ($50 for a smaller canvas).
Everything else you see in shops (including most shells) is imported and is the same stuff sold across the Caribbean. Due to the small size of the country, you'll see a lot of Jamaica and Bahamas goods being sold (probably due to retooling costs in Chinese factories to make Turks and Caicos branded trinkets).
Conch shells, whether collected or purchased from a shop, require a permit from the Department for Economic and Maritime Affairs to export. This permit can only be obtained during the open-season for conch. Other shells, depending on the species and quantity, also require a permit. Corals of any sort cannot be exported legally.
We recommend that you do not purchase conch shells, conch jewellery or other conch souvenirs because you must either obtain a permit (which can be a time-consuming process) or will likely have your shells confiscated. We have received several complaints from tourists who have purchased shells from local shops only to have them seized at the
Providenciales International Airport (PLS).
Find out more at
Buying, Collecting and Exporting Conchs, Shells and Corals.
There isn't any local 'high-street' or central shopping district in Providenciales. Most shops are organized into plazas, which have between 3 and 25 shops, and most of the plazas are located in the Grace Bay area.
See our Shopping Directory page for a list of shops and their locations.

Local Grade 2 kids raise close to $300 for African school
© Matt Molloy photo
Monica Sinyard sits in the middle of the Grade 2 students at St. Anthony Elementary School after accepting their $262 cheque, which will go towards helping other students at Muringato Primary School in Africa.
A little can go a long way – just ask the Grade 2 students at St. Anthony Elementary School.
Those kids had a special guest speak to them in May about life in Africa, and how life there is drastically different than the ones they're used to enjoying here.
After that presentation, which included many pictures, the young philanthropists decided to do their part to help make lives a little easier for the kids in one African school.
The students did their own fundraising, and asked the special guest, Monica Sinyard, to come back to the school last Monday for a special presentation – a $262 cheque.
Ms. Sinyard was blown away with the kids' genuine effort to help.
"It makes me want to cry. I think it's amazing," said Ms. Sinyard. "They look at it like, 'That's another kid like me who doesn't have shoes, yet I have 10 pairs, so I'm going to help them.' It's the right thing to, and as children, they realized they had to help."
Ms. Sinyard returned to her hometown of St. Anthony in November after spending a six-month internship in Africa, which was funded by the Canadian International Development Agency through the College of the Rockies in British Columbia.
While there, she spent countless volunteer hours at the Muringato Primary School, and it's the students at that school the local Grade 2 kids want to help.
One student, Emma Reardon of Goose Cove, raised $134 from a bingo, and that money has already made a difference to the kids at Muringato Primary School.
"They took it upon themselves," said Ms. Sinyard of the kids' charity. "I know we've already had a donation given from one of the students (Emma) in the class, and the money she gave has already supplied the whole school with food for two weeks, which is huge. All of the kids realized they're lucky to have so much, and they saw through the pictures that the kids there have so little. They thought, 'I need to help,' and I think that's amazing for their age group."
As for the rest of the raised funds, Ms. Sinyard says it will be given to the right person who will put it to good use.
Now that she's home, another intern has taken her place in Africa, and Ms. Sinyard will email her the funds, and in turn, she'll give it directly to the principal of the African primary school.
"I've been in contact with the principal of the school I did a lot of volunteering at, and there's another intern there now from Canada doing the same work I was doing, so I email her the money, and she hands it directly to the principal," said Ms. Sinyard. "Every cent goes directly to the school. For example, the $134 that Emma raised went directly to the school with no overhead cost, and it all bought food.
"It'll go to the same school…and the principal said that money will be used for food and supplies."
The students in the two Grade 2 classes were more than happy to help others in need.
Two of those students, Dominick Taylor and Megan Reardon, said it didn't take the class long to realize other kids their age, kids they'll probably never meet, needed their help.
So, they answered the call.
"When she came in, she told is how some of the houses were fancy, and some weren't very good. They don't have electricity, and they don't have food like we have here. They don't have as much stuff as we have, but they're still happier than us," said Dominick. "It's important to help them because we have so much money here, and they don't, and they can use it for things like school supplies and food. If we help them, they can do what we do here."
"They don't have a lot of things, but they stay happy, even though they don't have a lot," added Megan. "It's important to help them, because where they live in a poor country, the more money we give them, the more things they can buy, like food and school supplies."
Contact Ms. Sinyard at email@example.com if you're interested in helping the kids at Muringato Primary School.

Miley Cyrus Confirms Snoop Dogg Collaboration
Miley Cyrus's new album Reincarnated will feature a collaboration with none other than rapper Snoop Dogg, also known now as Snoop Lion. The news was confirmed by Cyrus while on Ryan Seacrest's radio show last Friday.
"I did a song with Snoop and it's coming out very, very soon," Cyrus told Seacrest. "I can finally say I'm going to have a song with Snoop coming very soon."
Cyrus explained that she wanted to work with Snoop on her new album because she wants "this record to be different." The 20-year-old singer thus enlisted the help of a number of collaborators for the songs on the album, which she said are "a bunch of passion projects."
On the album, Cyrus fans will also hear collaborations with Wiz Khalifa, Tyler the Creator, Mary J. Blige, and Mike WiLL Made It.
Reincarnated is due April 23.

new rig pic
I'm new to this forum stuff
here is a pic of the new rig
Wow! Very nice! :clap
Nice new to you hack. Where are you located? Doe your dog like riding in your rig?
Looks great.
Can you post more pics and tell us about the bike and car ?
I'm envious - yes, more pics please.
Aha! Cluedog I tracked you down! I got you on my radar screen now :lol3.
This is the rig, huh? Nice, very nice. I forgot to ask but am I right that you bought this rig used from South Sound BMW, then had DMC do the modifications, and this was before you'd actually driven it? Cool.
So like we talked about, sometime later this Spring when the weather is a bit more cheerful, Queen Bee and I will head up your way and we can all go on an outing. Plus I want to see this shop you got.
Congrats on the purchase.
