Mumbai, Oct 28 (IANS) Leading television producer Dheeraj Kumar has claimed that 75 percent of TV shootings have been affected due to a strike by cine workers demanding higher wages.
'The shooting of only those popular TV programmes is now in progress that have high TRP ratings or are a hit with the viewers. The broadcasters of these programmes are ensuring their smooth progress,' Kumar told IANS.
Meanwhile, the apex body of Bollywood cine workers, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), has taken strong exception to what it has termed a canard being spread by certain television producers against its Vigilance Committee.
The federation's anger is directed especially against producer Mukesh Bhatt for issuing a press release alleging disruption of television productions by its Vigilance Committee.
Prem Singh Thakur, who heads the Vigilance Committee, told IANS: 'First of all, we are not disrupting any shooting. We only tell the cine workers not to cooperate with the television programme producers if they refuse to pay the new wages decided as per the MoU signed on Oct 3.'
Thakur refuted Mukesh Bhatt's claim that the shootings of all TV programmes were being suspended due to the stoppage of work by cine workers.
'He is telling a lie to discredit the stand taken by the Federation that the cine workers will not cooperate with the producers who do not pay the revised wages. Can it be called disruption of shootings?' Thakur asked.
The Vigilance Committee head also questioned Bhatt's locus standi to issue such a 'damning' press release.
Thakur claimed that no TV shooting was being affected, and that after the vigilance team visited the sets, the TV producers made sure that the cine workers got their dues.
'After all, a day's loss of shooting affects not only the producers, but also the daily wage-earning cine workers. Especially, prior to Diwali, they cannot afford to do so,' he pointed out.
If Bhatt and Kumar are complaining, he said, it was because they could not swallow the fact that the federation's Vigilance Committee members were coming to the sets and telling the producers to pay up the dues.
'Assuming that Dheeraj Kumar's contention that the shootings of 75 percent of television programmes are being suspended is right, then can the producers, who are technically employers, suspend shootings without notifying everybody who work for them?' asked Himanshu Bhatt, a key office bearer of the federation.

He regularly takes swipes at Tacoma's city leaders, often in cartoon form, but has never seemed dangerous enough to provoke an attack. Hathaway's website is so far silent about the window-breaking smoke-filled sortie, but the News Tribune reports that someone arrived in the dark, armed with both a rock and bomb, at his Tacoma home this week: "The window of Hathaway's home was broken, and a common smoke bomb thrown in at about midnight Monday, said police spokesman Mark Fulghum.

Questions were asked about important problems that Chile had to face, major obstacles to more rapid development, collaboration with the United States to promote the economic development of Chile, the position of United States companies in Chile, and the influence of political, military, religious, and professional groups. The respondents' opinions of communism, capitalism, and socialism were also assessed through questions asking which system would be best for Chile and why. International affairs were also examined. The respondents were asked about the Cuban Revolution, the effectiveness of the Organization of American States, and their opinions of the Alliance for Progress, especially as it affected Chile. Exposure to the mass media, including foreign radio broadcasts, was explored as were the respondents' opinions of various foreign governments' publications.

|DEVICE FOR DETERMINING THE POSITION OF A PISTON IN A CYLINDER - A device for determining the position of a piston in a cylinder comprises an ultrasound facility for transmitting ultrasound signals into the inside of the cylinder and for receiving ultrasound signals that are reflected from said piston. A projection is provided on a front surface of the piston and comprises a front surface that is offset by a certain height with respect to the remaining front surface of the piston. The projection is isolated in any piston position that can be reached during operation. The position of the piston is determined by an analytical facility based on the transit time of the ultrasound signals between the ultrasound facility and the front surface of the projection.
|FUEL CELL SYSTEM OPERATED WITH LIQUID GAS - A fuel cell system comprises at least one fuel cell with a high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane. The fuel cell is supplied with liquefied petroleum gas from a supply of liquefied petroleum gas.

Dining where you shopped was once considered the acme of sophistication, as I was reminded when digging up the history of department store restaurants for
Dining where you shopped was once considered the acme of sophistication, as I was reminded when digging up the history of department store restaurants for this week's review of Grace Kitchen in University Village. While a few grand retailers still uphold the genteel tradition - Neiman Marcus yearly serves up thousands of eggy popovers at its flagship location - many more stores have converted their elegant dining rooms into additional acreage for clothing racks.
I came of eating age in a decade when frozen yogurt counters and espresso stands were becoming the hip thing in department store dining, but recall eating stately hot fudge sundaes at Hudson's (now Macy's) and Marshall Field's (now Macy's.) Along with brushing my hand over sable coats and walking the wrong way down the escalator, those desserts were a highlight of childhood shopping trips.
Grace Kitchen serves a sundae too, although I don't think the restaurant means to reference the culinary heritage of capitalism. Its intentions are largely irrelevant, since the sundae is quite good. Slathered with chocolate and caramel, the sundae is a shareable, gooey mess.
But the restaurant is apparently prouder of its strawberry "shortcake", which comes seated on a dense lemon scone advertised as award-winning. Since the restaurant has only been open since August, I called manager Kasey Reese to learn how its dessert had already won accolades.
"The award was won before we even opened," Reese explained.
According to Reese, pastry chef CJ Schimpf took the recipe to an American Culinary Federation contest and returned home with a medal. Although the restaurant is planning to retire the preparation at the end of strawberry season, the award-winning scone isn't going anywhere. "We'll serve the scone at breakfast," Reese says.
I'd rather have the sundae anyhow. For more recommendations on navigating the uneven menu at Grace Kitchen, a restaurant sadly plagued by service issues, read the full review here.

New garage, underground pedestrian tunnel extension planned for Bricktown
Veteran Bricktown property owner Don Karchmer is in talks with city officials about building a 1,200- to 2,200-space garage in Bricktown with the possibility of offices or housing on the top floors.
The Central Oklahoma Transportation and Parking Authority was preparing to hire architects to design a 1,000-space garage on the city-owned land north of Main Street and west of Walnut Avenue when the privately financed parking was pitched as an alternative.
Karchmer has a long-term lease for the former rail yard and operates a 1,300-space surface parking lot on the site.
"Our designs are for 2,300 spaces, but that may end up being too aggressive," Karchmer said Thursday. "We are in talks with major downtown property owners and companies about buying blocks of these spaces — and it can be something they can buy and sell."
Those discussions include Continental Resources, based at 20 N Broadway, the owners of Cotter Ranch Tower (also known as Chase Tower) at 100 N Broadway, BancFirst at 101 N Broadway, and the owners of the Medical Arts Building at 100 Park Ave.
Those talks, Karchmer said, "are very positive," and he is prepared to buy 500 spaces that he will make available to the public.
Karchmer's plan also calls for the first extension of The Underground pedestrian tunnels in a quarter century. Karchmer said he hopes to know next week whether his project will proceed, and if so, construction is set to start by September.
He hopes to construct the extension of a tunnel under E.K. Gaylord to the closest connection at the Santa Fe Garage while the street is being rebuilt as part of Project 180. The tunnel would then go under Main Street and the BNSF Railway viaduct to the front entrance of the new garage.
Karchmer said the garage is being designed to allow for expansion or development of offices or apartments on the top floors. He said interest to date leans toward development of apartments that would allow tenants to park under their residence and enjoy direct tunnel access to the Central Business District.
Cathy O'Connor, president of The Alliance for Economic Development of Oklahoma City, is assisting in the talks and said a privately built garage will allow the city to focus its resources on providing parking elsewhere downtown.
The city's downtown public parking system was expected to enjoy some vacancy after Devon Energy completed construction of its new headquarters and doubled the size of the former City Center West Garage. Instead, the influx of new headquarters including Continental Resources and Enogex has produced vehicles beyond the parking system's capacity.
The city recently started construction of a new 800-space garage south of City Hall and assisted in the financing of another 350-space garage at NW 10 and Broadway.
"We recognize that we need to develop additional garages downtown," O'Connor said. "If there is an ability to finance privately, from the city's perspective, that's the preferred course of action — to let the private sector do what it can do. A garage at that location could help to serve the east end of the Central Business District and would help take pressure off of the Santa Fe Garage. And once the garage south of City Hall is open, COTPA (the Central Oklahoma Transportation and Parking Authority) hopes to move parking out of the Santa Fe Garage to create more open spaces for the public."

A Modestly Humbled Obama
In the State of the Union, President Obama offered a welcome rebuke to the pessimism and Muslim-bashing of so many Republican candidates. But in his discussion of foreign policy he used tired rhetorical tricks to defend his record on Iran, Syria, and ISIS, and to attack strawman arguments on nation-building and military interventions.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- (NASDAQ: EMMS, EMMSP) – November 30, 2011 - Emmis Communications Corporation announced today that it has launched a modified "Dutch auction" tender offer to purchase up to $6,000,000 in value of shares of its 6.25% Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Preferred Shares") at a price per share not less than $12.50 and not greater than $15.56. The offer will commence on November 30, 2011, and will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on December 30, 2011, unless the offer is extended. Depending on the final purchase price of the offer, if the offer is fully subscribed, Emmis could purchase between 385,604 and 480,000 Preferred Shares representing 14.8% to 18.4% of the issued and outstanding Preferred Shares as of November 30, 2011. A modified "Dutch auction" tender offer allows shareholders to indicate how many shares and at what price(s) they wish to tender their shares within the specified share price range. Based on the number of Preferred Shares tendered and the prices specified by the tendering shareholders, Emmis will determine the lowest price per share that will enable it to purchase up to $6,000,000 of Preferred Shares at such price, or a lower amount depending on the number of shares that are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn. All Preferred Shares purchased by Emmis in the offer will be purchased at the same price, even if the shareholder tendered at a lower price, so in some cases Emmis may purchase Preferred Shares at a price above the price indicated by the shareholder tendering those shares. Emmis will not purchase Preferred Shares below a shareholder's indicated price. The purchase of Preferred Shares in the offer will be financed by amounts borrowed under Emmis' Note Purchase Agreement with Zell Credit Opportunities Master Fund, L.P., dated November 10, 2011.If, at the final purchase price, Preferred Shares representing more than $6,000,000 in value at the applicable purchase price are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn, Emmis will purchase shares tendered at or below that price on a pro rata basis. The offer will not be conditioned upon any minimum number of Preferred Shares being tendered, but will be subject to other conditions described in the tender offer documents, which will be distributed to shareholders on or about November 30, 2011. These documents will also contain tendering instructions and a complete explanation of the tender offer's terms and conditions. Neither Emmis nor its Board of Directors is making any recommendation, or has authorized any person to make any recommendation, to any shareholder as to whether such shareholder should tender or refrain from tendering its Preferred Shares or as to the purchase price or purchase prices at which such shareholder may choose to tender its Preferred Shares. Each shareholder must make its own decision as to whether to tender its Preferred Shares and, if so, how many Preferred Shares to tender and the purchase price or purchase prices at which it will tender them. Shareholders should consult their own financial and tax advisors, and read carefully and evaluate the information in the Offer to Purchase and in the related Letter of Transmittal.

I needed to change only two things:
- Ajax.Form changed to Ajax.BeginForm/Ajax.EndForm
- Html.SubmitButton changed to plain <input type="submit" />
and everything worked instantly!

Last night we had roast beef with yorkshires, mashed turnip, baked potatoes and roasted carrots. Tonight was open faced hot roast beef sandwitches with left over veggies. Latter in the week it will become beef stroganoff and if there is any left stir fry.
You know you are a SAHD if you have ever asked online for fashion advice for your wife and survived the experience.
everyone's meals sound so good. gotta love the costco pizzas!
Tonight I was trying to use up some peppers and such we got in our produce basket (bountifulbaskets.org) last week.
So I made some pico de gallo and some roasted tomatillo guacamole and cooked some chicken breasts (buy 1 pack get 1 free right now at frys) in the oven that I marinated in taco seasoning and lime juice then stuffed it inside of roasted poblano peppers with cheese and sour cream on the side. Would have made rice and beans too but it was getting late and needed to get dinner on the table. It was really filling anyway.
heartsong0413 - Yeah that happens to us a lot! I try to meal plan and chicken just ends up being what is the easier and most versatile. But we definitely need that red meat too!
Everyone's meals sound so good....

Chronicle of the Newspaper Death Foretold
The newspaper industry knew it was doomed 30 years ago.
Fresh thinking about what ails newspapers arrived in yesterday's (Nov. 29) Wall Street Journal, where staffer William M. Bulkeley contributed a column titled "The Internet Allows Consumers to Trim Wasteful Purchases." Bulkeley explains how the photographic film industry, encyclopedia publishers, the music industry, and the advertising industry feasted on buyers by forcing them to purchase things they didn't want—prints of all 24 shots from their camera or a whole album to secure one favorite song, for example. "The business models required customers to pay for detritus to get the good stuff," Bulkeley writes. But digital cameras, the Web, iTunes, and search-related advertising have stripped those industries of their power to charge for detritus.
Bulkeley could have easily applied the wisdom of his lesson more broadly to newspapers. It's not that the complete gestalt of local, state, national, and international news plus sports, comics, classified, opinion, and hints on fashion, home, entertainment, and food isn't still useful. It is. But given a choice, and the economic means to make a choice, many buyers prefer to make an unbundled purchase. Unbundling the news they want from the news they don't want is what the Web allows readers to do now.
For decades, newspapers—and other media—prospered by exploiting what former hedge-fund manager Andy Kessler calls EPILIT, which is short for Entertainment (or Editorial) and Perishable Information Leading Indirectly to a Transaction. The model works to the media moguls' advantage, he writes, as long as the number of distribution "pipes" (newspapers, TV networks, radio stations, cable channels, phone lines, etc.) can be controlled. When anybody can join the EPILIT party—exactly what the Web encourages—the monopoly profits enjoyed by media moguls suffer. And make no mistake about it, American newspaper publishers sucked every available dollar out of their advertisers and readers when they occupied the commanding heights.
Kessler's cheeky essay from October, "Media 2.Uh-Oh," predicts that because nobody will be able to control the pipes in the future the way they once did, all the media markets will be in play and remain in play for some time. The turmoil experienced most acutely by the newspaper and music industries has now spread to the television industry, which is cutting costs and restructuring. (See this story about the collapse of the 11 p.m. news ratings in Washington, D.C.)
If you agree with me that the newspaper business has been on a slow, unstoppable train ride to hell for many decades and that the Web has only accelerated its descent, then you'll enjoy another article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal.
"Buy This Newspaper!" by editorial-page staffer Holman W. Jenkins Jr. (sorry, only the first paragraph is on the Web) regards Jack Welch's offer to buy the Boston Globe, the coming breakup of the Tribune Co., and Wall Street's snipping at the New York Times Co. as "straws in the breeze" portending a time when newspaper companies stop trimming page size and get rid of paper pages altogether for the Web.
What's preventing anybody from going first, of course, is the $45 billion ad market that generates profit margins of up to 20 percent, Jenkins writes. Yes, newspaper Web advertising is growing, but not fast enough to cover the declines in print advertising. A paper gets about one-tenth or one-twentieth the advertising revenue for a Web reader as it does a print reader, he notes.
To thrive, news companies need to convince advertisers to pay much higher rates for readers who "value their time at tens or hundreds of dollars an hour lingering on newspaper Web sites for perhaps half an hour everyday, and they're not just channel flicking. They're engaged," Jenkins writes. As I've written before, people may be giving up the newspaper habit, but their appetite for news is growing. The 1.1 million circulation for the print New York Times served 25 million unique readers in April via its Web site, according to the company's own logs.
I'm not the type to predict the future, if only because I'm so bad at it. But print editions of newspapers, which saw the endgame coming 30 years ago and did everything they could to forestall it, need to figure out what they're best at and double down in those realms. To give one example, if newspapers think they're in the editorial business, the slimming of the business pages at most dailies indicates that the standard business section is doomed and the copy should be folded into the rest of the paper to make room for a section the masses really want to read. Sports sections that refuse to retool themselves as the smart supplement to ESPN can kiss their pages goodbye.
If newspapers think they're primarily in the advertising business, they could take Mark Cuban's sharp advice from this week and redeploy their ad staffs to broker Web advertising wherever they can find a place for it, not just on their own Web sites. What they'll probably do instead is form a new intra-industry Newspaper Readership Project.

Owen —*My favourite from your list. A well-known, not too popular name that works in both countries. Stylistically I think it fits better with Caleb and Josephine. More ideas: Oliver, Liam, Leon, Macsen, Soren, Otto, Henry, Evan.
Judah/Jude — Judah feels to American/Bible Belt to me. Jude is lovely & I think works great with your other names (although personally I'm not a fan of having 2 kids with the same initial and one with a different one — it's either all or nothing for me). Generally speaking 2 syllable full names work fine (Jude Law, Brad Pitt, John Locke). More ideas: Julian, Luke, James, George, Zane.
Reuben — More similar in style to Caleb (American biblical but not to much) & reminds me of Reubens. It feels quite unusual in comparison to your other names. More ideas: Rupert, Rufus, Rudolph, Ronald (Ron), Thorben, Benedict, Benjamin (Ben), Euan, Augustine.
Rafferty — Feels too English/hipster/surnamey/unusual in comparison to Caleb and Josephine. More ideas: Rafe, Raphael (Raffy/Rafe), Rory, Remy, Ralph.
Rafferty nn Raffy (wildcard name I love but a little unsure)Arabella, Thibault, Sophia, Alfred, Eleanor, Rémi, Charlotte, Achille, Olivia, Clement, Elizabeth, Frederick, Maud, Benedict, Adèle.

My favourites to go with your other kids' names:
1) Reuben – very handsome and fits in beautifully
2) Owen – ditto above. Can't go wrong with a little Owen
3) Jude – cool 'Hey Jude' reference- very British
3.5) Judah - does seem very biblical but still okay
4) Rafferty – I'd never heard of this before I joined Nameberry. It doesn't feel at all English to me and I don't think it works well with Josephine and Caleb. Also, it reminds me of the word 'raggedy' :/
But I agree with the suggestions of Julian, Raphael, Benedict, Hugo, Oliver, George & Henry! Or, how about: Harry, Oscar, Lewis, Aaron, Tristan, Arthur, Daniel?

There's an early Christmas present for those looking for work in one Eastern Carolina county: a company is coming with 200 new jobs.
Armstrong Marine, Inc. will set up a welded aluminum boat manufacturing operation in the old Hatteras Yachts location near Swansboro. It plans to invest more than $8.4 million at the new plant.
Onslow County commissioners and the Jacksonville Onslow Economic Development office made the announcement.
Armstrong, which makes welded aluminum boats, fire boats, dive boats, pilot boats, research vessels, interceptors, and riverine craft, is headquartered in Port Angeles, Washington.
The average pay for the jobs will be $31,420 plus benefits.
Hatteras Yachts closed its Swansboro operation in 2008, moving those 200 jobs to New Bern.

Friday, April 19, 2013
Level 2, day 3. I was actually looking forward to it today. As the school year nears the end, my seniors are starting to get anxious. They are getting difficult to handle. Today was our life skills trip. They had to come up with a menu, shop for the items, and then prepare the meal. Sounds cool in theory.
So they voted for stir-fry chicken. Before we even got our coats, one boy went ballistic about how much he hated shopping. He cussed me up one side and down the other, and then took his show on the road for all the classrooms to share. While I was corralling him, the job coach informed me that I would only be able to have one van. So, I crammed all of them into the van with an assistant, and I followed along behind them with our other assistant. They did not behave inside the store. Loud and goofy. One boy got angry about something and hid. When I finally got them and the food back in the van and drove to the main campus to use the kitchen, we discovered that somebody had scratched my name off the reservation form, wrote in their own, and was already having their class cook in the kitchen.
Scratched my name off and wrote theirs in. The nerve! It's a 30 minute drive, we had a bunch of perishable food and six teenagers that are loud and unruly--and that's when they are trying to be good. I got the problem resolved, but the morning went downhill from there. I was a frazzled mess by the time I actually got home from work.
Jillian was a piece of cake today. I needed to work off some of that irritation. I barely even broke a sweat, and the calorie burn was much lower. Now I'm slightly less irritable. Slightly.

Council keeps mum about meetingPublished 12:37pm Thursday, November 8, 2012
A special called meeting of the Dadeville City Council was held Oct. 29, but several members of the council were either unwilling or unable to discuss what happened.
City clerk Sharon Harrelson said she was not able to make the minutes of the meeting available until the next council meeting.
"I have to keep the minutes for three different boards," Harrelson said. "It's all I can do to get them typed before the next meeting … I'm not typing them."
Harrelson said the council does not keep recordings of the meetings.
Former Mayor Mike Ingram also declined to comment on the meeting.
"I don't have anything to say," Ingram said. "It was just an ordinance passed, more or less, but since I'm not in there anymore I'm not saying anything."
Council member Pat Potts said she could not remember the contents of the ordinances passed at the meeting.
Council member Frank Goodman also said he was uncertain about what ordinances had been passed. Although Goodman mentioned an ordinance involving bonds for the water board and an ordinance changing the wording of a previously passed ordinance, neither of those ordinances were printed in the newspaper.
The passed ordinances were printed in the Nov. 1 edition of the Dadeville Record and the Nov. 3–4 edition of The Alexander City Outlook.
Councilman Randy Foster addressed Ordinance 481, which is described in the legal section of the newspaper as "an ordinance providing for the appointment of city officers of the city of Dadeville as identified and set forth herein by law."
"That ordinance is to unify the legislative and the judicial branch of the city operations," Foster said. "It has the city council as appointing authority."
The ordinance removes the power of appointment of certain city positions from the mayor and grants the authority to the city council. Those positions include fire chief, chief of police, city clerk, city attorney, city treasurer, municipal judge, municipal prosecutor, municipal public defender and building inspector.
Previously, the mayor would have proposed people to fill the positions. The proposals would have been approved by the city council and then officially appointed by the mayor. The mayor could appoint someone to one of the listed positions with or without the approval of the council.
"Now the council has that authority," Foster said.
Foster said the ordinance was a "group effort of the city council."
Foster said other subjects were addressed during the meeting, but he did not have his notes available and couldn't remember what else had been discussed.
Mayor Joe Smith said he would have been present at the meeting if he had been aware of it.
"I didn't know anything about it," Smith said. Smith also did not have access to the meeting minutes.
Smith did not approve of Ordinance 481.
"I don't like it at all," Smith said.
The Oct. 29 meeting was the last meeting for the previous city council. The new council was sworn in Nov. 5.
The next Dadeville City Council meeting will be Nov. 13 at 5 p.m. at Dadeville City Hall.

Why is it that when the world learned of Steve Jobs' death in 2011, complete strangers who never even knew him were overcome with tears?
This is the question director Alex Gibney poses to the audience at the beginning of Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine, amidst shots of people leaving flowers at Apple stores, holding up virtual candles on their iPads, and mourning the loss of a man who seemed, before his cancer, invincible.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 29 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JCFPA How could I refuse. Short sleeve version of my favorite shirt - on sale. X great shirt, fantastic price. I'm happy. April 19, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by DaveF More than adequate. Meets the need for light, washable, and packable. It has many pockets, but still one the size of an airline ticket. There are no more paper airline tickets! April 28, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by Wiz302pa Good value travel shirt Bought 2 shirts in Medium size that fit very well and are a good value at the sale pricing of $22 and $25 dollars. I typically wear either a medium or large depending on how the shirts are cut. I will use as a travel shirt; wash them out in the evening and wear the next day. March 29, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by jobroinc Continue to compliment Travelsmith I will continue to compliment Travelsmith on their offerings in shirts. I purchased this in a large/long and it fits great. The quality of the make is excellent and the fabric is very sophisticated. Having some previous experience in retail clothing as a buyer I understand the price value of a garment. The garments I have been purchasing from Travelsmith are quality, well made garments. I have great confidence when shopping that's what I have now come to expect and have not been disappointed. . March 7, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Travelogged Great for travel and home My husband has several of these shirts that he bought for travel, because the checked fabric has a sot of puckered or seersucker look that hides wrinkles. He wound up wearing them so often that he has already replaced 2 of them. They look great with shorts and dress up nicely with long pants. The fit is loose, but not sloppy; perfect for the "Dad body"! September 1, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by gladIhadit Glad I had it I have this in both long and short sleeve styles. Both are very comfortable and virtually wrinkle proof. They've been sent to dry cleaners and came back fine. Both seem to run slightly larger than size. However, they're not so large as to be uncomfortable or to warrant considering a smaller size. I made use of the security features. I think it protected me from a pick pocket in Italy. In a crowd someone bumped up against me and I felt a bump on my pants pocket. Wallet, cash & cards were in security pocket of shirt. I am glad I had it. July 16, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by robarc Really disappointing shirt At first glance, this seemed like a great shirt, so I ordered two. They wrinkled from the moment I touched them and were nothing close to wrinkle-resistant. The pocket layout is great in terms of secret pockets, ease of carrying things -- but between all the plastic material (rayon, polyester, whatever) and the extra layers of cloth for pocketing, this was like one huge sweat tent. They might work well in cold or very dry climates, but in any warm and humid climate (Europe, the US outside of the Southwest -- I shudder to think how these would work in the tropics!) get ready to sweat and sweat even more. Extremely disappointing purchase -- especially since I bought two of them. October 5, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by RobH Too fragile for travel Last year I purchased two of these shirts for a trip to China. Before the end of our trip, I sent one to the ships laundry and it was returned with a collar button ripped off and a hole in the fabric where the button was sewn on. I chalked this up to an over aggressive laundry. The second shirt now has a hole in the fabric at the corner of the pocket flap. Since our return from China, this shirt is seldom worn. Both holes formed where there was sewing and it just seems like the fabric just can't hold up to normal wear. I liked the fit and feel but will not plan on purchasing again, nor will I recommend this shirt. February 25, 2014

"The Iditarod - Anchorage, Alaska" Anchorage by toontown
Anchorage Travel Guide: 880 reviews and 1,680 photos
I was fortunate enough to be in Anchorage, Alaska for a conference on the same weekend as the ceremonial start of the famous annual Iditarod dog-sledding race. Anchorage was much milder than I expected and very pretty with the surrounding mountains (Mt. McKinley) and ocean (Cook Inlet).
- Pros:Scenic, friendly people, great seafood restaurants
- Cons:Getting there
- In a nutshell:Not as rustic as you would imagine

Nice job with my former hometown! I agree with you - the Captain Cook is a great spot to stay. Been there for 4 day conferences and never left the hotel! (It was -20 and blowing) Birthday greetings from Alaska!
I was just up in Anchorage, had my digital camera... but no good picture taking moments. It was showing and or raining the whole time I was there! I like your Iditarod tips. I had a friend who ran it one year. It's a great event to watch.
Nice pages - useful tips and good pictures.

Additional Information
More information about this loan
This loan is designed for poor clients living in rural areas with high levels of crime and social conflict. These clients, working primarily in agriculture, are often ineligible for credit from formal financial institutions because of the high-crime area they live in, their lack of adequate collateral (like a land title), and the likelihood of low agricultural production due to bad weather or pests. Fundación Paraguaya is committed to serving these clients with loans and other wraparound services tailored to their needs. It also provides clients working in agriculture with access to discounted training courses at a local agricultural school to teach them how to improve their crop yields.
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.
