Bohning Blazer Vanes 36 pack- The unique shape of the Blazer Vane begins to steer and correcting arrows immediately. These 2 inch vanes weigh only 6 grams per each.
Bohning Blazer Vanes 36 pack- Blazer vanes are made from an ultra stiff material that allows the air to flow over the vanes that creates lift. Each tip from the 2 inch vanes have a precise leading edge angle that allows each vane to act like a rudder. Because they are lightweight and have the precise leading edge angle, they shoot noticeably better at longer range than competetor's vanes
- 1.987 inches long
- .568 inches tall
- 6 grams per vane
Nastassia of West Valley City, UT - August, 12 2014:
These are my favorite fletchings. They are durable and they help the arrow fly straight. They are a lot quicker as well.Kevin of Springfield, OR - January, 01 2015:
Been using blazer vanes on all my arrow builds for the last 5 years. With the AZ ez fletch tool I get a perfect fletch job every time. Vanes are tough and have yet to have one come back off and with the "PROPER" arrow preparation they stay on. Ive fletched them on alum, carbon and wrapped arrows with no issues.

In the category of everything goes better with bacon, Slater's 50/50 has taken that mantra to the extreme with a 100 percent bacon burger topped with, of course, more bacon.
For the month of July, the small Southern California chain is promoting its 'Merica burger, made with 100 percent ground bacon.
That's 50 percent more bacon than its conventional burger, which is half ground beef, half ground bacon.
As if 100 percent ground bacon isn't enough, Slater's has gilded the bacon-laden sandwich with a sunny-side-up egg, thick-cut bacon, bacon island dressing and bacon cheddar cheese.
The July promotion is in keeping with the chain's monthly promotions to feature burgers that are a little more on the outrageous side, said Erika DiProfio, vice president of marketing.
The concept behind the 'Merica burger, she noted, was in fact the inspiration for Slater's itself, founded three years ago by San Diego State alum Scott Slater.
"Scott and (Executive Chef) Brad (Lyons) went to a Chargers tailgate and wanted a really great breakfast hamburger and started by grilling 100 percent ground bacon," DiProfio said. "It didn't go so well, which is why they added the ground beef. It's a really delicate balance."
Because it is a chain with just three locations (two in Orange County, one in San Diego), Slater's is not required by law to post the burger's calorie count.
Maybe that's just as well. It's only available for a few more weeks.

Late 3-pointers carry Eich seventh-grade girls to win
By: Kurt Johnson, senior sports editor
Wildcats record second consecutive win to open season
A pair of huge three-point lasers in the final minute by Emilee Gavia delivered an exciting 38-35 win for the W.T. Eich seventh-grade girls basketball team Thursday against a talented Granite Oaks squad from Rocklin. After jumping out to an early lead in the opening stanza, the Wildcats watched their lead dwindle and then disappear before outstanding defense down the stretch opened the door for Gavia's heroics. Early points from Mimi Anderson allowed Eich to open an initial 7-2 advantage before the Falcons narrowed the margin to 11-9 by the end of the first period. Behind a balanced scoring attack, led by Rachel Agarpo, Kelsey Woodell and Bykema Mobley, Granite Oaks forced turnovers to create scoring opportunities as it bounced back to lead by four, 27-23, after three quarters, but Eich scored 15 points in the final seven minutes to capture the win. Gavia drained a long-range 3-pointer at the one-minute mark to tie the game at 35-35, and then turned a Wildcat offensive rebound into the game-winning trey with just 12 seconds left on the clock. The two shots capped a 16-point performance for Gavia, who also nabbed six steals to lead Eich in that category. Olivia Francis scored 10 points for the Wildcats, and also grabbed six rebounds and added five steals to the winning effort, while Anderson scored eight points and Kendra Barnhard led the squad with seven boards. Eich (2-0) is in Granite Bay to take on Cavitt next Tuesday. Eich's eighth graders struggled to find points against Granite Oaks, as the Wildcats dropped to 0-2 on the season with a 44-17 loss to the Falcons. Michelle Lawrence was very active for Eich, and led all players with 13 rebounds in the game, and Kelsey Caudill led the Wildcats with six points.

Well, I just returned from the track and I must agree with Vettel. While the pace of the Ferrari and Lotus looks solid, even on longer runs, the Red Bull cars are in a class of their own. Often, their pace through the first two sectors was staggering and then they seemingly backed it off in the last. This one could be a battle for last position on the podium unless something miraculous happens overnight.

The annual consultative meeting between editors and the Media Council of Tanzania (MCT) has called for closer working links between journalists and government institutions and functionaries.
The call followed disappointment over the government failure to open the consultative meeting and participate in it as requested by the council.
According to a statement issued in Dar es Salaam yesterday by Tanzania Editors Forum and signed by its Secretary Neville Meena, the editors and other media stakeholders were not pleased by the absence of the Minister for Information, Youth Culture and Sports Dr Fenella Mukangara and her Permanent Secretary Seth Kamuhanda.
The statement said failure by the two leaders to participate in the important meeting for the development of the profession in the country and or send a representative from the ministry has not only shocked the editors but also displeased them.
"The report we received indicated a tug of war between the media profession, the ministry and the entire government …the failure to send a representative from among the ministry's leaders and executives is evidence that something is not right at the ministry," it said.
The editors however said that the act has created doubt on whether they still need to continue to work with the minister and her PS because they were worried whether they can get cooperation in the coming days especially in putting in place a good media law and right to access information.
The act has diminished the editors'faith in the ministry's leaders especially in the process of bringing changes to the profession and the right of collecting information and providing news.
The editors stressed that the public should be informed about the incident and that they will submit official complaints to President Jakaya Kikwete so that he can intervene to rescue the profession which is crucial for the health of the nation.
They however assured Tanzanians and the government that the media is determined and well organised to work for the country by abiding by ethics.
"What we request are tools of work which are the Media Service Act and the Right to Information Act whose processing has lasted for 10 years without getting the laws," the statement said.
The consultative meeting was held on June 3 to 5 this year at Morogoro and involved editors from the government and private media.
Among things the meeting discussed the state of the media in the country.
Different topics were discussed, focusing on promoting professional ethics.

Hell hath no fury like Angela Bassett scorned. We learned that once in Waiting to Exhale when Bernadine tore apart her husband's closet, all the while ranting about his anal retentiveness ("Seven-thirty-two! The number of times we made love! I remember when that bastard told me he was counting. Right after 51!") or in The Jacksons: An American Dream when Katherine told Joseph she didn't want him anymore.
American Horror Story: Coven has been delivering a pretty steady flow of teasers leading up to next week's premiere. The latest is "Minotaur," which teases a neck, some shoulders, and two touching hands, one of which has two strange looking fingers. If you're rusty on your Greek mythology, a Minotaur is a mythical beast with the head of a bull and the body of a man.
Just as the story and cast of characters change for each new season of American Horror Story, so does the opening sequence. If there's a common thread, beyond the twisted, buzzy, drippy music, it's that the imagery all suggests that something bad is about to happen. Well, bad is a relative term, I suppose, as bad can translate to very entertaining in a horror context, which is what American Horror Story is all about.
"You girls need to learn to fight," Jessica Lange says in the new trailer for American Horror Story: Coven. "When witches don't fight, we burn." Finally, following teaser after creepy teaser we get some actual footage from the new season and it's exciting stuff! Previously announced spoilers included word that Lange plays the mother of Sarah Paulson's character Cordelia, who runs a small school for witches in New Orleans.
When the fall television season hits, and the promotional material starts coming out in droves, we generally get a bunch of episode clips and stills of characters staring into the camera sternly or comically. Only a few series out there manage to buck that trend, and FXs American Horror Storyconsistently has some of the most interesting imagery out there.
Earlier today, we got a look at Kathy Bates and Angela Bassett in costume for their roles as rivals in American Horror Story: Coven, and now FX has offered up some dark and twisty new artwork and a teaser to go with it. The teaser is a little bit similar to the previous pins and needles video, except this one shows smaller pins moving out of the body and limbs of a breathing figure who's hunched over with their arms crossed in front of them.
As October inches closer, we're getting more and more looks at the upcoming third season of American Horror Story. Following up on the cast teaser for American Horror Story: Coven are two photos from the new season, one of which shows us Kathy Bates in her role as Madame Delphine DeLaurie, a woman who doesn't sound like she's nearly as sweet as Bates looks in that photo.
Led by Taissa Farmiga, Jamie Brewer and Gabourey Sidibe, this group of witches walks past a shirtless, unconscious bull-headed man and up to the front door of a mansion, opened by Sarah Paulson. Inside, theres a deer or an elk standing with three witches on stilts that all unmask themselves, unveiling the faces of the core squad of baddies.
What's scarier, a mouth stuffed full of snake or being buried alive? The women featured in FX's promotional content for the upcoming season of American Horror Story don't seem to mind either, but that's one more indication that we're headed toward the season of the witch. The above teaser is the latest to arrive ahead of the anticipated American Horror Story: Coven, which arrives next month.
Following a series of darkly bizarre teasers comes a dark, creepy and kind of sexy new poster, which depicts three women with their faces close to one another. A white snake has slithered from one mouth to the next and is facing the viewer with its tongue out. What does it mean? I don't know but it makes me uncomfortable and I sort of can't stop looking at it. I guess that's part of the appeal of American Horror Story to begin with.
September is upon us, and with it comes the return of our favorite TV shows, as well as the premieres of many of the new series on deck to debut on network and cable TV. From the early starters, including Boardwalk Empire, Sons of Anarchy and The Legend of Korra, to the October arrivals, including Grimm, American Horror Story: Coven and The Walking Dead and everything in between, we have plenty to look forward to this fall!
It looks like those witches are being burned at the stake in the latest teaser for American Horror Story: Coven, which deviates a bit from the house-related creepy antics we've seen in the previously released teasers for the returning series. And as an added bonus, you may have noticed that this "Stakes" teaser also happens to include the official premiere date for AHS: Coven, which is October 9.
American Horror Story has always been maddeningly vague and teasy with their pre-series promos, which hint at the dark and creepy that awaits when the series returns for a new season and a brand new story. They're torturous in their bizarreness and lack of direct clues to the plot of the new season. But the American Horror Story: Coven teasers take that torture a step further by ear-worming "House of the Rising Sun" into our brains with one slowly sung line.
Taissa Farmiga and Denis O'Hare aren't the only American Horror Story first-season stars making a comeback to the series for its third season. Alexandra Breckenridge, who played young-Moira in the series' first season is reportedly set to return for Season 3, American Horror Story: Coven, joining a host of new and returning cast members already locked into appear in the FX horror series this fall.
Emma Roberts is no stranger to horror. The 22-year-old actor, who began to make a name for herself with roles in Nancy Drew and Nickelodeon's Unfabulous, played a starring role in Scream 4. With Fox passing on the Delirium pilot, that leaves Roberts available to pursue other TV projects, and it looks like she's found one with a role in the anticipated third season of American Horror Story, subtitled Coven.

Can you move aquarium decorations around in a established aquarium?
Can you move aquarium decorations around in a established aquarium. Things like drift wood and fake rocks. With out cause to much of a problem like fish loss?
Sure, you can move the decor around. You also want to be sure to vacuum the substrate under the decor maybe once a month or so as gunk can collect underneath it.
I move everything in my tanks around on a fairly regular basis, Take things out, put new in, Never have a problem, Your main cycle is in your Gravel and Filter, Mess to much with those and you might get a problem, But anything else is pretty open game.
But it is important to do a regular gravel vac, just don't over do it :)
i agree with the people above.....you can also use some old tank water (during a water change) and swish around your plants and rocks too
somtimes I will swish around my plants or decor in bucket of old tank water just to get any debri off of them....i use the water I drain out of my tank into a 5 gallon bucket then swish the plants in that, rather than tap water or the sink which contains chlorine....it probably doesn't do much but it makes me feel better lol

How To Help
Investigating and litigating innocence claims often takes years and involves teams of lawyers, investigators and experts. Since this is an incredibly complex and expensive process, MAIP needs your help to do this work as effectively as possible so the innocent people we represent can obtain their freedom.
To date, we have received more than 6,000 requests for help from prisoners and their families in our region. Our staff consists of two full-time attorneys, one part-time attorney and a program associate. We are in the process of hiring a staff investigator, but have no administrative personnel and only one attorney who is devoted full-time to the litigation of MAIP cases. Therefore, we rely heavily on students and attorneys to help us process and investigate our cases. If you are a student or lawyer in our region and would like to volunteer with our organization, please go to our Volunteer page for more information. We are also particularly interested in experienced investigators and individuals with forensic science expertise.
Additionally, MAIP could not thrive without the help of its partner companies. From design groups to law firms, we are fortunate to have a wide variety of corporate support. If you are interested in becoming one of our partners, please reach out to us.
And if you don't have the time to volunteer in person, you can help from anywhere. Take action by writing letters to local newspapers, governors and legislators regarding your concerns about our nation's judicial system and wrongfully imprisoned individuals. Or, you can help us continue our work by making a financial contribution. MAIP relies on support from individuals, schools and law firms in order to keep working. We appreciate any and all contributions, no matter how small.

This is a result of the screen electronics. Please use the remote control if you want to change volume without delay.
If you use the string antenna which comes with the MK100, please make sure that it is fully stretched and fixed to a wall or top of a cupboard in the best position for receiving FM. If you want to optimize for DAB reception, please re-orient the antenna to be vertical instead of horizontal. If problems persist, it may be necessary to have a professional install an external aerial.
The mounting shelf must be at least 562mm wide and 300mm deep to accomodate the head unit and power supply.
The following music formats on USB are compatible with your harman kardon MaestroKitchen 100: MP3, MP4, WMA, M4a, and AAC. Playback of WAV files is not guaranteed.
Yes, same as for a USB memory. But please use an external power supply, as the USB connection cannot supply sufficient power for physical drives.
No, but large numbers of song files take longer to read from the memory into the MK100.
Yes, but please note that burned CDs are of variable quality, and some may not be playable.
The MK100 can play MP3 files from a USB memory stick, but not from a CD.
Yes, all compatible Apple products are charged while playing. Note that iPads are not fully compatible, and are not charged.
Yes, iPhones are fully compatible with the MK100 system. Note that video content and data sync are not supported.
Yes, all three iPad versions can be used for playing music. Please note that the iPad is not charged while playing, so charging must take place via separate charger. Note that video content and data sync are not supported.
This happens when the MK100 has been put into real Standby, whereas normal Sleepmode ensures that the unit starts where it was switched off. Standby reduces power consumption to an even lower level than Sleepmode. Usually, you should only switch to Standby if you are not going to use the unit for longer periods of time. Please note that the remote control can only put the MK100 into Sleepmode, so using the remote completely avoids the issue. If you switch the unit OFF with the front panel control, briefly touching the on/off symbol results in Sleepmode. Holding your finger on the ON/OFF symbol for 3 seconds or more results in the unit going into Standby. In Standby, MK100 reverts to CD play when re-started, and the Tuner switches from SCAN autosearch to TUNE manual tuning. You can easily select FM or DAB tuner again, and activate SCAN autotuning.
Please update your unit by downloading a new software package (number 0.02.37 or higher) from the Harman Kardon Maestrokitchen home page. Software upgrade instructions with detailed information is available on the home page as well.
If you experience any problems with your Maestrokitchen unit, always check if you have the latest software installed before seeking other assistance. The Maestrokitchen home page always contains the latest software.

The CPU/GPU are now seated on one die along with eDRAM. And there is a one large fan instead of two smaller louder fans. So it's cheaper to make, smaller and quieter. You'd think Microsoft covered all of its bases.
Meh, maybe it is just too early to jump on the company. With new hardware there are bound to be snafus with a new launch. What I didn't expect to be a problem though was overheating.
I also don't think you need to speculate to know that Microsoft wants to get as far away from that PR nightmare as possible. Sadly, Red Dot of Death is just as catchy.

Hi Ladies...I'm looking for a little hope and inspiration. I'm new to the forum and am expecting to do my first DE cycle in either June or July. Would you mind sharing your success stories? How many cycles did it take? How many embryo's did you transfer? And anything else you could share would be is appreciated :-)
Donor Egg Success Stories Please
Wanna/Paw - I don't have IF coverage either. It sucks. This is my last hoorah, so I'm praying for a happy ending. I could maybe try one last time next heat, but I'm hoping for a BFP this cycle, and if I get a totsicle or two for siblings even better. I hate to think that my path to motherhood could be ended bc of finances. So frustrating.
Paw- does your RE do fresh donor embryo cycles? I've thought they were usually frozen. Even though most ladies are doing eggs here, this is the place for you! I look forward to learning more about embryo donation. Can't believe you've been TTC for so long! Well hopefully this is the home stretch and your BFP is only a few months away :-)
Donielle, see there is where I am not educated about the process. I would assume that these are frozen embryos. They then will do the mock transfer. I did ask them if I could have my Donor embryos shipped if I found them and they said they would have to really screen. I had considered the miracles in waiting site, but giving my RE office a chance and continue to research.
Yes, been at this for a really long time and wish I knew about the donor embryo ages ago. Thanks for the warm welcome!
Very excited for all of you! Most of us have really been through it and it takes so much strength and careful thought.
After 24 yrs of waiting, we are expecting 2 little blessings!
Paw..I think when using donated embryos they are frozen. The way I understood it is they are the"surplus " from a previous cycle and the only way to preserve them is freezing. I guess they could do fresh but you would need 2 donors then...right? I hope they get back to you soon. Keep us posted
Melled, That is my understanding too. I think I was confusing fresh Donor Eggs and Donor Embryos. I am pretty sure these are extra totcicles from IVF couples in our network of clinics. I will want to make sure that these gifts have resulted in a live birth at some point. Have a list of questions for RE. Ty Melled!
After 24 yrs of waiting, we are expecting 2 little blessings!
Paws- I think it's great that ppl donate their unneeded embryos so they have a chance to be born. I always wonder what I would do with any totsicles once my family is complete.... I personally couldn't discard or give to research. I don't know if I could donate either though... It's a lot to consider.
Donielle it is a huge decision. We prefer closed and private with any adoption or donation. I was open adopted a 11 and for me it has been a nightmare dealing with biological family to this day. Long story...
I will see at my consult how long the wait and such will be. I also have Greek ties and could travel there for embryo donation or I am also looking at California Conceptions. I have spoken with the Greek RE at lengths on Facebook and via email. I would like to have DH with me during transfer and not sure how easy it will be logistically overseas as he is so busy with school. These two options are actually embryos being created and not left over. I am not sure if I am comfortable with this just yet. Yet, if one would have asked me 10 yrs ago about ART I was not ready for it either.
After 24 yrs of waiting, we are expecting 2 little blessings!
Paw - why would they have to screen frozen embryo's? Wouldn't they come with the med history and records from donor's?
Anywho, I think it's all good!
We are all lucky that we have the technology available to give us children, and much love for the wonderful individuals that give so much of themselves to help total strangers have families.
Tristan, Yes you would think!! lol I called my clinic to see if I found donor embryos if they would take them. Maybe the young lady was confused about the the verbage. I am in Arkansas, so not many choices for IF treatments at all. She paused when I asked her and came back with we will need to "screen" them first. I need to be seen to get updated bloodwork and u/s anyway, so I will use the clinic for that. I am #4 on the waiting list, but if they tell me I could wait more than 6 months, I am going to throw my name in the pot for elsewhere too. Thank you for the list. I think the RE will work with me for the best outcome and even if it means monitoring and working with a clinic that has embryos ready to go to a home soon.

Oh, and how cool that you may also go to Greece. A lot of women travel out of the country bc the cost are so much more reasonable. I've considered it myself, but its harder to find black egg donors elsewhere. Well, there is a well known center in South Africa, but that's a bit far.

Improving the State of 4K Display Support Under OS Xby Anand Lal Shimpi on March 7, 2014 11:41 PM EST

In my Mac Pro review I lamented the state of 4K display support under OS X 10.9.0. In my conclusion I wrote: "4K display compatibility under OS X is still a bit like the wild west at this point". Compatibility was pretty much only guaranteed with the ASUS/Sharp 4K displays if you cared about having a refresh rate higher than 30Hz. Even if you had the right monitor, the only really usable resolution was 3840 x 2160 - which ends up making text and UI elements a bit too small for some users. Absent were the wonderful scaling resolutions that Apple introduced with its MacBook Pro with Retina Display. Well it looks like that won't be the case for long, last night I got reports (thanks Mike!) that the latest developer build of OS X 10.9.3 includes expanded support for 4K displays, 4K/60Hz support for rMBPs and scaled resolutions below 4K.
For starters, the list of compatible displays in 10.9.3 extends beyond the ASUS/Sharp models. The 32" and 24" Dell 4K panels are now supported, and I'm guessing the < $1K 28" 4K monitors should be supported as well. You could drive any of those panels prior to 10.9.3 but not at 60Hz.
The display preference pane now includes support for scaled resolutions just like on the rMBPs. The default in 10.9.3 is still the panel's native resolution, but you now have the option to choose 3200 x 1800, 2560 x 1440, 1920 x 1080 or 1280 x 720. All of these options are treated the same way that the rMBP's scaled resolutions are handled. In the case of the 2560 x 1440 setting, your display is rendered at 5120 x 2880 with text/UI elements drawn at 4x the size (2x in each dimension) and images/video in supported applications drawn at 1x size (1:1 pixel mapping). Once the frame is built, it's scaled down to fit the panel's 3840 x 2160 resolution - giving you a fairly sharp image. I suspect Apple is using their own filtering algorithms here as well in order to ensure maximum quality for the downscaled image.
The beauty of Apple's scaled approach is you get totally usable text/UI elements while still getting all of the benefits of having tons of screen real estate for working on images or videos. The example below features a Photoshop CS6 window with a blue box measuring 3000 x 1500 pixels with no scaling (viewport is set to 100% scale). In this particular example the display is running at the 2560 x 1440 scaled setting, but as you can see the 3000 x 1500 image can still fit on the screen without scaling or scrolling. This is only possible because the off-screen desktop resolution is a whopping 5120 x 2880 and image elements are rendered 1:1:
You'll also notice that despite the ultra high off-screen resolution, all text/UI elements appear as if they were drawn on a 2560 x 1440 display. That's the 4x scaling at work.
Prior to 10.9.3, you could force some lower-than-native resolutions on 4K panels but you'd get a lower res desktop upscaled to fit the panel, without any of the HiDPI benefits I just outlined.
There may be a performance impact to the scaled resolution settings (the 3200 x 1800 option actually draws your screen at 6400 x 3600), particularly if you're driving a 4K panel off of an rMBP but I suspect any of the beefier Mac Pro configurations should be fine. This is definitely something to look at once 10.9.3 goes final.
This is a huge step forward in improving the state of 4K under OS X. The 10.9.3 update is a smaller update than 10.9.2 (~200MB vs nearly 800MB), which took around two months from initial seeding to final release.

opposed to "underworld smuggler". Gotta admit that while this Rodian reskin pack isn't quite as high tech as the rest of the SW universe, it's definitely much more smuggler. Likes are severalfold. The camo shirts, very well-made, no visible seaming in the texture, and so very appropriate for the character. Notice how the utility belt is more rustic and more like Kyle's, which is a very nice touch indeed. Overcoat, love the overcoat, it's very John Wayne and got a good guffaw out of me - it's very gunslinger. :p Dislikes, well. I'm not mad about the pants. Most likely because there's a whopping big seam in the texture. And because the pants and boots combo overall reminds me of the undead from World of Warcraft. Anything that reminds me of WoW is bad, but anything that reminds me of the Undead Warlock I had during my three-week playing stint is very bad. Erm, yeah, right, the file. Sorry. All the usual extras would have been nice, but there's really not a whole lot to complain about here. It's not the most complex release, but it's a good one. Especially if you're a fan of Rodians.

Here's a little story I like to call "Child Left in the Dark by CL-P"
The following is another example of the high quality customer service of CL-P (I assume CL-P stands for "Couldn't Light you up if you said Please"
Waking up to a lack of electricity is never a good morning, and with these extreme financial times we all are sharing in, these thing happen from time to time.
Now I've never had my electricity shut off before, but this whole event is just aciddine. I had my power shut off due to non-payment, I missed 1 month.
Admittedly I don't pay every month. Sometimes, with the way that money is nowadays, I need to pay every other month. My girlfriend is out of work, and my own hours are cut back, even now I'm in the middle of a shutdown from Pratt&Whitney, for almost 2 weeks.
While this is not CL-P's fault it does make it hard at times. It's just a matter of a very old, and out of shape mailman who probably should have considered retirement by now.
Here's where the story gets really bad:
Realizing the power was off (and I was still asleep) my girlfriend Tanya, went outside to see if the rest of the street was out of power, this is the first thing anyone should do when the power is out.
Upon getting outside, Tanya found a CL-P worker handling our electrical meter, he told her the power was being shut off due to lack of payment, made a hasty retreat to his car, and sped off at speeds well above the posted speed limit for my heavily populated residential area.
Keep in mind, that if he had knocked on our door and warned up, a lot of this headache would have been avoided. There was clearly people at home at the time, and this man made the stealthiest possible operation from this. Had he given a warning, a simple phone call from me to the CL-P billing office would have ended the situation right there. But it gets worse.
So I call the CL-P phone number, and I wait the 20-30 minutes it takes for them to actually answer the phone, as opposed to the constant automated voice of, "we appreciate your patience....." until finally I get the opportunity to pay my bill with a person, only to find out that I have to wait a day, or possibly more, to get the lights back on, even though I paid the bill with in an hour of the lights being out.
Would have been much less time if they could answer the phones quicker.
After talking with 2 representatives, and (supposedly) 2 very irate supervisors, explaining to them the horrible mail service, asking why the serviceman (who was 10ft from my open front door, and Tanya a few feet behind that) couldn't give a courtesy knock, telling them of the young child in our home (that now has to spend a day without water and a hot meal), the best answer they can give me is
"We don't do same day service in Connecticut, Our servicemen work by appointments only" and that is a DIRECT quote from all 4 of the people I talked to, plus they can't give a time to expect them, even thought they work on a schedule. Now the supervisors do give a good spiel about how same day reconnects are against company policy and if there was a mass outage due to a storm, we'd be in the same predicament.
Hypotheticals aside, that is not the problem here.......CL-P
I've paid my bill, and I would be balls to britches that the same guy who "ninja'd" my power was still within the town. Apparently getting on the horn to the serviceman and telling him to make another stop is beyond their capabilities. So now they get a day with 1 less customer buying their product, sounds like a good business model to me. Punish the customer.
Further complicating matters is the fact that there was no warning of when the shutoff was actually to take place.
By shutting off the electricity as they did, they scrambled the hard drives on 2 computers, one of which has 3 hard drives.
Everyone knows that PCs don't like to unintended, abrupt shutoffs. By "pulling the plug" on my homes, they cause a good deal of damage to the software in my older computers, who knows for sure about any damage to the hardware from the energy spike that is caused by doing so. if there is one thing I'm sure of with CL-P though, they will compare this to a power outage from a storm, or equipment failures.
But that is not what happened here. What did happen is a CL-P person came out to my home, walked onto my private yard, and pulled my plugs, without saying a word, until Tanya asked him something, as he made a beeline to his car...

In 1979 Regulus Black had begun to have doubts about serving as a Death Eater, but was reluctant to act. One day, Voldemort asked Regulus for the use of his house-elf, Kreacher. Voldemort used Kreacher to test the defences around his locket Horcrux, leaving him to die afterwards. Kreacher was able to escape using house-elf magic, and told Regulus of what had happened. This led to Regulus' defection and he travelled to the Cave to replace the locket with a replica. He had to get past the passage which required that he weakened himself.
In 1997 Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter Apparated to this cave to break into the place where the Horcrux is hidden. In order to get inside Albus Dumbledore used his knife to cut his hand open and use his own blood to get past the passage and into the inner part.

Word is Loggins, who has not yet made an official announcement, has canned his "Summer Tour of Minor League Ballparks."
Loggins, with the Boston Pops was scheduled to perform at the New Britain minor league stadium on August 30, as part of a 10-city stadium journey from Birmingham, Alabama to Buffalo, New York. Rumors are while ticket sales were going well in The Hardware City, they were not so good in other areas of the country. Called "Hollywood Hits Tour" the event was to have featured music reflecting America's favorite pastimes...baseball, movies and rock 'n roll.

Schiffer's dog schoolClaudia Schiffer has sent her pampered pet pooch to obedience school.
The German supermodel's three-year-old Alsatian dog, named Oscar, has got so used to a life of luxury he no longer obeys his owner's commands.
In a last ditched attempt to teach her dog some manners, the blonde star has enrolled Oscar for training at the Yorkshire kennels, in Britain, where she bought him.
Kennel owner Arthur Rivers said: "Claudia spoilt him rotten. He's a working dog really but he has gone soft.
"I just put him through his paces, taught him how to respond again. I wouldn't try breaking into Claudia's house now."
Meanwhile, Schiffer has displayed her support for her home country, Germany, in the football World Cup by posing for a patriotic poster of herself naked apart from her national flag maintaining her modesty.
She said: "In England everyone waves the English flag. This does not exist in Germany at all.

- Localising temporal constraints in scientific workflows
- Author(s)
- Chen, Jinjun; Yang, Yun
- Abstract
- Temporal constraints are often set when complex e-science processes are modelled as scientific workflow specifications. However, many existing processes such as climate modelling often have only a few coarse-grained temporal constraints globally. This is not sufficient to control overall temporal correctness as we can not find temporal violations locally in time for handling. Local handling affects fewer workflow activities, hence more cost effective than global handling with coarse-grained temporal constraints. Therefore, in this paper, we systematically investigate how to localise a group of fine-grained temporal constraints so that temporal violations can be indentified locally for better handling cost effectiveness. The corresponding algorithms are developed. The quantitative evaluation demonstrates that with local fine-grained temporal constraints, we can improve handling cost effectiveness significantly than only with coarse-grained ones.

URISupport.createURIWithQuery() fails on composite URIs that have an inner query but not an outer query, e.g.:
The failure is due to the method not taking into account this possibility and assuming the query consists of everything after the last question mark.

Patch applied, thanks.
Timothy, yes, you are right I think. We should only have to check for the last parenthesis. I was worried about getting confused on an orphan closing parenthesis, but in reality that would seem to indicate a malformed URI, and so in that case we shouldn't have to guarantee any particular behavior.
I've created a new patch that only checks for closing parenthesis and also fixes the backwards assert statements in the unit tests. I'm going to upload this new patch over the previous one.
Looking at your patch I think it probably would suffice to check if the "?" lies beyond the last parenthesis instead of searching for the matching set, what do you think?
Also the assert statements in the unit tests have the arguments backwards, the expected result should be first, otherwise the error message is a bit confusing.

Texas Buck-rakers
How the Texas Tea Party became nothing more than an effort to take people's money.
The headlines are as lousy as anyone could dream up. From the Associated Press: "Republican Cornyn Wins Primary in Texas Over Tea Party Foe." From Politico: "Two Pillars of the Republican Establishment Crushed Their Tea Party–Inspired Primary Challengers in Texas." Hadn't it just been a few days since the movement gathered in Washington and celebrated for its five-year jubilee? Hadn't Sen. Ted Cruz said they were winning? What happened?
Nothing happened. That was the point. Neither Sen. John Cornyn nor Rep. Pete Sessions was ever at risk of losing his primary. The organizations and people that claimed these establishment Republicans were in danger inspired headlines, trend stories, TV buzz—fundraising. They followed that up by expending exactly zero effort.
Tea Partiers and other conservatives did quite well down the ballot. On Wednesday morning, a Texas Tea Party organizer copied me on a memo about the votes in "major races," like lieutenant governor and attorney general and various state legislative districts. He didn't mention Cornyn's campaign against Rep. Steve Stockman, or Sessions' 2–1 landslide over Katrina Pierson. You could describe the choice for activists as one between the scoreboard and the school board, between "challenging" the leaders of the GOP in a way the press can cover and changing the GOP with unsexy local election wins. Tuesday was an apocalypse for the team scoreboard.
Stockman, who lost to Cornyn by 40 points, keeps getting eulogized as a "Tea Partier." That was never true. Stockman won an upset in 1994, the first modern Republican wave year, and lost in 1996, making such a buffoon of himself in the interim that future Republican leaders would cite him as a cautionary tale. He returned in 2012, running as "Congressman Stockman," a title he hadn't held since Bill Clinton's first term. But his tactics never changed. Republican voters found "conservative newspapers" in their mail, loaded with negative stories about Stockman's opponent, yet mysteriously bereft of bylines or sources or anything about Stockman's own inscrutable finances.
Stockman didn't run a Senate campaign. He ran a kamikaze mission with no fuel, map, or targets. He lied relentlessly, often through a Twitter account ghost-written by his spokesman and always in a manner that could be debunked with a quick phone call or Googling. Stockman claimed to have won "Tea Party straw polls" that were held months earlier. His campaign sites (which accepted bitcoin donations, naturally) featured a chintzy Photoshop that made it look like Cornyn had hugged Obama, and a list of "past and present endorsements," one of them from an activist who'd been dead for most of 2013.
Days before the election, Stockman claimed an endorsement from "the head of one of the biggest Tea Party groups in America." Jenny Beth Martin, the head of Tea Party Patriots, had not endorsed him. She'd given a nice quote about him to WND—in December.
Actually, if you'd been following Stockman's race on WND, Tuesday's result would have stunned you. The conservative news site reported that Stockman was following a "Cruz missile" strategy and closing the gap with Cornyn, citing one Human Events/Gravis poll that ended up missing the result by 25 points. Jerome Corsi, the author of the investigative journalism classic Where's the Birth Certificate?, endorsed Stockman and wrote credulous WND columns about his race. Stockman had blown off Texas reporters and made no public campaign appearances since January. He gave Corsi an exclusive interview.
The broader right has an uneasy relationship with Corsi and WND. It's not just that the site obsessively covered conspiracies about President Obama's citizenship or that it bought billboards to advance the conspiracies. It's that the site twins conservative news with get-rich-quick, survive-the-apocalypse, buy-buy-buy ad scams. Eric Hoffer's theory that every political cause becomes a "business, then eventually degenerates into a racket," is proved every day at WND. It's proved in less noticeable ways on the email lists of defeated presidential candidates like Herman Cain that have been sold to quacks.

The Origin and Development of the Quantum Theory
by Max Planck
Book Reviews
Book Description
The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book:
My task this day is to present an address dealing with the subjects of my pubhcations. I feel I can best discharge this duty, the significance of which is deeply impressed upon me by my debt of gratitude to the generous founder of this Institute, by attempting to sketch in outline the history of the origin of the Quantum Theory and to give a brief account of the development of this theory and its influence on the Physics of the present day. When I recall the days of twenty years ago, when the conception of the physical quantum of action was first beginning to disentangle itself from the surrounding mass of available experimental facts, and when I look back upon the long and tortuous road which finally led to its disclosure, this development strikes me at times as a new illustration of Goethes saying, that man errs, so long as he is striving. And all the mental effort of an assiduous investigator must indeed appear vain and hopeless, if he does not occasionally run across striking facts which form incontrovertible proof of the truth he seeks, and show him that after all he has moved at least one step nearer to his objective. The pursuit of a goal, the brightness of which is undimmed by initial failure, is an indispensable condition, though by no means a guarantee, of final success. In my own case such a goal has been for many years the solution of the question of the distribution of energy in the normal spectrum of radiant heat.

USAKA heads to Ebeye for softball game
December 20, 2010
Story Highlights
- USAKA/RTS organize softball game on neighboring Ebeye.
- USAKA team wins the game 11-7.
In an endeavor to continue positive relations with the Marshallese neighbors and friends, U.S. Army Kwajalein Atoll/Reagan Test Site staff arranged to have an international softball championship game between the best of USAKA and the Ebeye All-Stars on Ebeye Dec. 11.
The USAKA team arrived at the Ebeye softball field and the two teams banded together to help clean up the rain-soaked field so it was ready for play. Of course, as soon as the field was ready, they were blessed with a torrential downpour. Luckily, the Ebeye All-Stars had graciously put up a tent for spectators and both teams and their fans waited patiently for the rain to subside.
To begin the game, Kwajalein Atoll local government Mayor Johnny D. Lemari threw the first pitch to USAKA Commander, Col. Joseph Gaines. USAKA coach Ray Drefus had his bullhorn ready to announce players up to bat and the Ebeye All-Stars provided an umpire for the game.
As visitors, USAKA went to bat first. Gaines started the game with a solid single. Not wasting any time, Joe Moscone nailed a double, bringing Gaines in for the first run of the game. Pumped for the second inning, Charlie Dodd came up to bat and nailed the ball - right into the two-foot deep puddle a few feet in front of home plate. As we all witnessed throughout the game, the ball seemed to frequent this spot quite a bit, keeping catchers from both teams on their toes.
Later in the third inning, Stephen Parrish got the crowd in the flurry thinking he was going to get a home run, but he was held up at third by the quick Ebeye All-Stars outfield. Mike Sakaio finished the job, hitting a long double, bringing Parrish in to make the score 4-0; USAKA ahead at the top of the third.
The Ebeye All-Stars had a slow start, their first few innings ending rather quickly. But they got into their groove and came alive toward the midway point of the game.
The first run for Ebeye was scored by Almar Taitos in the bottom of the fourth inning. He ran hard into home and made a dive for it to secure the run.
At the bottom of the fifth, the Ebeye All-Stars pulled out all the stops and gave USAKA a run for their money. Pitcher William Robert started off with a sturdy single. Next up was catcher Terry Lorok, who slammed one far into the outfield bringing Robert in to score. The Ebeye All-Stars were quick to show their skill in the outfield and up to bat; they had a good eye for the ball and didn't have one strike-out the whole game.
By the top of the sixth inning, the competition grew more exciting. USAKA came out strong, with Sakaio launching one far into the outfield to bring in Gaines and Lonnie Gentry to score. John Theologidy followed with a firm single. Ebeye answered with a big hit by Stanley Ruben, and by big hit I mean straight to the wretched puddle in front of home plate; regardless, he still got on base. Before you knew it, the bases were loaded thanks to Ruben and Jacklick. The Ebeye All-Stars took advantage and brought the score up to 7-4, USAKA still ahead.
The last inning was by far the best for both teams. Sgt. Maj. Hohn Wolf, who had an injury due to a pre-game scrimmage, came up to bat for the first time. He wowed the crowd as he propelled the ball far into the outfield, hitting a big triple at the end of the game and bringing in two runs. Gaines was up next and sacrificed himself to bring Wolf in to score. Down by six as they went into their last turn up to bat, the Ebeye All-Stars left it all on the field. Lorok, Ruben and Eugene Bejang got the crowd cheering with their big hits and fast plays. But a diving play by USAKA short stop Theologidy ended the game with USAKA as champions, 11-7.
Despite the rain, mud and puddles, the game was full of enjoyment for both teams and the spectators.
"The softball game was a great team building event for our staff," said Gaines, "and the Ebeye All-Stars gave us a real run for our money. Everyone enjoyed themselves and we were honored to have Mayor Lemari throw out the first pitch."
A trophy will be made and held on USAKA until the next championship game can be scheduled - and there will be one soon.
"I look forward to more U.S./Marshallese community events like this in the future," Gaines commented. "I think these events play an important role in strengthening our relationship with the host nation."
It will be quite the game to see. Now that both teams have had the chance to see how the other plays, the next match up will be even more exhilarating and entertaining than this one.

Feis, Placer pound the glass
Becky Feis' left shoulder was feeling good Wednesday night and that was bad news for the Bear River High girls basketball team.
Feis led an all-out attack of the glass by Placer as the Lady Hillmen celebrated a second straight victory over a Pioneer Valley League rival at Earl Crabbe Gym. Placer defeated Bear River 54-40 as Feis dominated the paint with 14 points and 11 rebounds.
"We were coming off a high after beating Colfax and we wanted to keep it going," Feis said.
The 5-11 senior dislocated her shoulder last season and it's been troublesome ever since. It popped out of place the last time the Lady Hillmen (5-3 PVL, 14-11 overall) played the Bruins – a 36-32 Bear river win – though she played through the pain.
Feis tapes her shoulder each game to help stabilize it. At times it's been difficult for her to lift her left arm over her head, but she's been playing virtually pain free of late.
"It's been feeling better recently," Feis said. "The tape supports it and makes it so I can go for more rebounds."
She and her teammates went for plenty of boards against Bear River. Six different Lady Hillmen scored in the first quarter as they built a 15-7 lead. It was 23-7 before the Bruins were able to mount a response, but they still trailed 29-18 at the half.
Bear River (5-3 PVL) cut Placer's lead to five points on two occasions in the second half. Both times, the Lady Hillmen responded with 6-0 runs to keep the lead safe.
Nicole Parrish and Kerry McCullough scored 10 points apiece. Lauren Collins played well, finishing with eight rebounds, four assists and two steals. McCullough added seven rebounds, four assists and two steals.
Jenn Meylor scored 10 of her 14 in the second half to lead the Bruins. Sarah Hagar added nine and Savannah Welz finished with eight, but Bear River could not handle Placer on either end of the floor.
"Our defense has been playing really well and tonight we were able to score," Placer coach Tony Camillucci said. "They're just playing with a lot of confidence. We had games like this at the beginning of the year where we had leads and teams would make a run and we'd say, 'Uh, oh, here we go again.' Tonight we were able to respond."
The win will go along way toward securing a playoff spot for Placer, which started the week at No. 15 in Division III. The Lady Hillmen are hungry for more success after knocking off previously unbeaten Colfax and a Bear River team they hadn't beaten since 2009.
"We just need to keep doing what we're doing and working hard," Feis said. "We don't want to just settle for these big wins."
Colfax 40, Center 32 at Colfax — The Falcons clinched at least a tie for the PVL title with a steady performance against the Cougars.
Colfax (7-1 PVL) needs one win in its final two games to seal up the outright league crown. Sophomore Regan Lillie paced the Falcons past Center with 13 points. Haleigh Lis scored nine, Ashley Scott added eight and Kayla Tremeroux tossed in seven.
The Falcons will host Bear River on Friday.

Hello everyone,
We're obviously having some problems today, as the reply function isn't working. My guess is that is caused by the migration to the new server yesterday, which seems to have fixed the speed issues, but something has else has clearly gone awry. Please accept my apologies for this. I'm afraid it's likely to be Monday before this gets attention, but it will be dealt with first thing.
Daniel HaynesEditor, gardenersworld.com
As you may have already noted, the problem has now been fixed and it's now possible to reply to posts.
seems to be ok now touch wood
Well, I'm back home - let's have a try and see what happens
Actually really there is a fix which works for shorter threads but hitting (page 2) probably makes an error Brumbulls morning forkers is on page 53 and you cannot reply to it.
Oooh, it's working Hurrah! Thanks Daniel and thanks Blackest for the B&B
Oh, just read about Page 2 - well, at least we can reply succinctly to gardening queries
Dove did you have a good day? Still a few probs with the site but we can always start lots of new threads if nothing else
Hello everyone. I think Blackest deserves a toffee apple or a windmill, whatever he fancies, for setting the other forum up.
Stick of rock?
Thats right kill me, diabetic so not keen on sugar
Late last night replying seems to be fixed and working properly.
But there does seem to be a problem with moving to the last unread post from the beginning of a thread. But you can work round it.
Best stick with the windmill then blackest!
Well then, let's give Daniel the stick of rock for all he's had to put up with lately, and Blackest can have a healthy salad and some fruit

The statistics are horrendous. Only 16% of those who attend church read a Bible daily, and an amazing 25% of those who go to church regularly never read a Bible outside of church. Those stats are startling, but also challenging. Dr. George Guthrie, Professor at Union University, has taken this challenge head on. His new material, Read the Bible for Life, is an incredible resource for churches and individuals to teach, challenge, and facilitate biblical learning for life.
There are a number of resources Dr. Guthrie has developed to help turn the tide. One of the key materials he has provided is a 9-week study, Read the Bible for Life Workbook, for Sunday Schools and Small Groups to teach them to study and live the Bible out. Knowing that many churches work on a quarterly system, we (at the SBTC) wanted to provide 4 additional weeks of study for groups called Living the Bible for Life. This supplement is intended to take many of the principles Dr. Guthrie has taught and help them be lived out in marriage, family, and the world.
Even though this is a supplemental resource, we believe this material could be used as a STANDALONE 4-week study for groups as well. Each of these studies has:
· 4 lessons for teachers
· 5 daily devotionals for each of the weeks
· marriage activities for couples
· Supplemental helps to Read the Bible for Life for preschool
· Supplemental helps to Read the Bible for Life for children
· Supplemental helps to Read the Bible for Life for students

Moms what do you think? I could sure use some advice?
My sister-in-law has changed so much, since I became pregnant & given birth. Prior to this, she was wonderful. When she found out we were expecting, that's when I noticed the change. She seemed more distant, she stated she could not attend our baby shower and then when she finally showed up with gifts weeks later, they were old, as if they were from her first child. Now that our child has been born, she seems even more jealous & upset that the attention is no longer on her & her child. For example, at family events, she makes it a point to take my child, so everyone can focus on her holding the baby. I practically have to pry the baby out of her hands. She also allows her child to misbehave by hanging all over our child, she never addresses it. Lastly, each time we make plans w/my in laws, so that they can experience quality time w/our child, surprisingly enough her child needs to be baby sat..My husband also noticed it, and we have decided to ignore it, what do you Mom's think?

You should try talking to her, she might be feeling threatend. Let her know that you are here for her, and that you are not trying to steal her place with the inlaws. I'm dealing with the exact oppisite, my SIL is the one being moody and I have done nothing but try to make her feel welcomed into the family. SHe is having her 1st baby and she is not trying to hide that fact that she is tryin to get my inlaws to like her and her baby better them our two boys. Just keep trying to reach out for her and heap coals of kindness on her!posted 01/16/2009 by amorris7220072200
i wouldnt try and make a big deal but i can tell you one thing shes jealous i havent even had my daughter yet and my 21 year old sister is the most jealous person of me i know she even goes as far as pretending shes pregnant and as soon as i told everyone in the family i was pregnant she started saying she was pregnant so what i suggest you should do is talk to your husband and adddress the problem with him so he can address it with her and if that doesnt work have him address it with his parents to not let the sister in law know that you have plans with her parents just let it be that way becasue of the fact my sister has nothing but pure jealousy for me she is going to have nothing to do with my child or me and we dont even speak now but it is because of her actions gestures rude and jealous comments that she is to have nothing to do with my daughter or meposted 01/14/2008 by hgrace2226
I try to ignore it and distance myself as much as possible from the situation. It can't bother you if you aren't around, right? It's disappointing not to have the relationship you imagined, but I think it's easier to deal with the disappointment than it is to deal with the in-laws...just my opinion.posted 11/26/2007 by srt12780
She's definitely jealous! I dealt with something similiar, but with my own sister. We are 2 sisters who married 2 brothers. So same parents and same inlaws! I didn't address the issue head on though. Instead, I would make arrangements to spend time with her and her kids while my parents or inlaws spent time with my little one. Kept her and her kids from hanging on my baby for attention, and gave my parents and inlaws quality time to get to know my baby. Also, it kept our sister bond in tact. She's over it now and I can count on her whenever I need a sitter and baby's grandparents are not available.posted 11/01/2007 by valeria7704
i deal with this same thing in my family. my hubby is very aware of the situation too. so do not go over to the inlaws house much becaues of this my sil's kid is 9 so he has been around much longer than my 1 year old we feel the 2 of them require so much attention that we just stay away we make my mil come to see our little girl at our home if she wants to see her and the fil never comes over sometimes my mil will bring the sil or the grandson with her and we just deal. so i guess i don't have and good advice just support.posted 10/23/2007 by lk;lkhlug7uo
Sounds like your SIL may be a bit jealous. Maybe you could find a way to bring attention to her child at the same time. It's better to take the high road than to cause a rift when it comes to family. And another thing to think about is one day your child will be friends with this child and you would never want them to think family behaves in this sort of way.posted 10/22/2007 by lisajim0001
wow, this is interesting...has your husband addressed it with his sister?posted 10/18/2007 by Still learning

Test Taking Tips

Learning Methods and Theories
All the test taking tips in the world won't help if the student doesn't study. But the reward of seeing "A's" and "B's" on tests shouldn't only go to students who are "good" at taking tests. It's normal to get nervous, but as long as you're prepared, rested, full on a healthy breakfast (but not too full) and confident, the stress will disappear with each answered question.

Indian newspapers go local
14 August 2013
KOLKATA: Marketers could capitalise on increasing literacy which has resulted in the circulation of India's newspapers spreading to smaller towns and more rural areas.
Media groups have noted that newspaper penetration in the countryside can be as low as 5%, against 70% in cities, but, as DD Purkayastha, chief executive of ABP,
told the Financial Times
: "Those people are getting literate and they have started reading newspapers."
Consequently, distribution is being widened and new publications are appearing in local languages.
In the latter case, newspapers have sought to attract readers through a focus on local affairs. "The strength of vernacular dailies in India is the strength of the coverage given to districts, which is not done by the English dailies," said Manas Ghosh, editor of the Bengali-language edition of The Statesman, a Kolkata daily.
And these newspapers are regarded as being less at risk from the growth of the internet than their English-language counterparts.
Newspapers have also benefited from an unexpected finding. As the number of television channels grow so too do the number of newspaper readers, in what PN Vasanti, director of research group CMS, has dubbed "the appetiser effect".
"People who go and watch television more go back to check facts in print. That's a very unusual phenomenon that doesn't happen anywhere else in the world," she said.
Newspaper business models, however, are precarious, and growing circulations may not be enough to offset a rise in the cost of printing, given that cover prices are very low. Profits are overly reliant on advertising income, although Purkayastha noted that advertising growth had been "fairly handsome in the past decade."
It is forecast to continue to be healthy in the medium term, with a report from KPMG and the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry indicating that print advertising revenues forecast will grow at more than 10% annually.
