Homes built on land under merger deal to be regularised
Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the state government will formulate a separate policy for regularisation of houses built on the land coming under the purview of the merger agreement.
"The state government will formulate a separate policy
to regularise the construction of the houses built on the land
falling under the purview of the merger agreement," Chouhan
said yesterday addressing a function organised by Navyuvak
Sabha at Bairagarh.
The merger agreement was inked on January 30, 1949
between the Central Government and the Bhopal Nawab, the
erstwhile rulers of the Bhopal state.
The policy will be drafted by a committee which include
Bhopal Commissioner, Manoj Shrivastava, Secretary to the Chief
Minister Vivek Agrawal and Bhopal Collector Nikunj
Shrivastava, the CM said.
Chouhan said people are in no way guilty of constructing
houses as they have purchased lands from their hard earned
He said that laws will be amended in such a way that any
buyer should come to know all details about the land ownership
before purchasing the same.
Chouhan assured the land/house owners that there will
be no change in the ownership of houses after regularising of
the land falling under the purview of merger agreement.
"House owners do not have to worry about ownership," he
The house/land owners in the city are agitating over
the sudden decision of the district administration that their
homes were constructed on the revenue land while they claimed
that the land belongs to their forefathers who were associated
with the Nawab in some way or the other.
BJP MLA from Huzoor, Jitendra Daga, whose land as well
as that of large number of people of his constituency also
comes under the merger agreement told the news agency today, "we have
constructed our houses after getting due clearances from local
municipal body and are paying property tax for it since
"Now, suddenly the land has been described as the
government land which has created problems for the large
number of people living since decades in the area," he said.
"The ongoing agitation against the move will continue
till we get justice," he said and hoped that the committee
formed for the purpose will come out with a law beneficial to
the people.

2010: A Term Limits Odyssey
Fifteen years ago or so, around the time legislatures were first passing term limits laws, we ran an article in this magazine pondering what life ...
Fifteen years ago or so, around the time legislatures were first passing term limits laws, we ran an article in this magazine pondering what life in a term-limited legislature might be like in the 21st century. We envisioned that with the members limited to fixed careers of six or eight years, these places would turn into hothouses of impatience and ambition, with members sparring for power and leverage from the day they were sworn in.
The article was slightly tongue-in-cheek, but it's turned out to be truer that we ever thought possible. What's happening in some states borders on the bizarre. A few weeks ago, a Republican in the Florida House, Dean Cannon, announced he had been chosen as Speaker--for the session beginning in 2010. He had pledges from a majority of the GOP Caucus, he said, so there was no need for anyone else to apply.
At the time of his announcement, Cannon (pictured here) had been serving in the legislature for all of eight months. He had spent virtually every day of his brief incumbency running for a leadership job that wouldn't open up for five years. That didn't strike him as unusual. "I think everyone who comes in here wants to be speaker," Cannon said.
But it is unusual--or at least rather irrational. Nobody knows what the world will be like in 2010, let alone what sort of leadership a legislative body might need at that point. And even if those things were knowable, eight months is a ludicrously short time for colleagues to spend with someone prior to anointing him. I'd be willing to bet that quite a few of the members who voted for Cannon for speaker-of-the-future hardly even knew him. The whole thing is sort of like choosing the senior class president in the first semester of freshman year. Even high school kids have more sense than that.
Why would any legislature in its right mind do such a thing? Well, there's one halfway sensible explanation. Put a few dozen ambitious people in an important legislative body, tell them they have to leave in eight years, and you're practically asking them to spend the whole eight years trying to outmaneuver each other for position. If you make the choice in Year 1, rather than Year 8, you may be making it in ignorance, but you spare the whole institution years of bickering. In an odd sort of way, it's like giving out committee chairmanships purely on seniority, as Congress used to do. You won't get the best leaders most of the time, but you'll keep the conflict down. That's worth something.
Of course, there's another possible solution: Abandon term limits altogether and let legislators serve as long as the voters want them in office. Then they could work their way patiently into positions of expertise and influence, offering themselves for leadership at a point in their careers when their colleagues actually knew something about them. That still happens in the 30 or so states that managed to avoid the term-limits fad of the early 90's. But it won't happen in Florida any time soon.

Cecilia Chung, San Francisco, Calif., diagnosed in 1993
I actually went with another friend to get tested and he was my support system at the time. ... But the first person I talked to after that was my mom. It was very difficult for me, for many reasons. One was because I'm Chinese. There are a lot of values that, as a Chinese son, I was taught: that, when I grew up, I was supposed to take care of my parents and make sure that they live comfortably. I'm supposed to make sure that I provide for them. The thought that I might die before they do was something that I was never prepared for.
Second: Catholic guilt. I was raised Catholic. And somehow that whole idea, or that internal chatter, all started to talk to me, and say, "This is what happens. This is God's way of punishing you. You transitioned [from male to female]. You're an abomination. This is God's way of telling you He doesn't approve." It was very hard to bear. So I decided to pick up the phone and call my mom. I told her that I might die before she does, and I told her that I tested HIV positive. Even though, at that time, we didn't really have a good relationship, I thought I owed her at least that. ...
I felt really alone for a long time, because my family and I didn't reconcile until later on in my journey. My mom and I truly reconciled in the middle of 1995.

Tennessee basketball coach Donnie Tyndall signed his second student-athlete in four days Monday, as NJCAA first-team All-American Kevin Punter signed a National Letter of Intent to become a Volunteer.
A 6-foot-4-inch, 170-pound shooting guard from Bronx, N.Y., Punter has spent the past two years at State Fair Community College in Sedalia, Mo. He plans to enroll at UT this summer and will have two years of eligibility, beginning with the 2014-15 season.
"I'm extremely pleased and excited about Kevin's decision to join our program here at Tennessee," Tyndall said. "He's a long, athletic perimeter player who can play multiple positions for us. That athleticism and length, coupled with his versatility, make him a player who fits our style perfectly.
"In addition to that, Kevin is a gym rat, which is exciting because guys like that who spend a lot of time in the gym always maximize their potential."
As a sophomore last season, Punter shot 57 percent from the field and 37 percent from 3-point range while averaging 20.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game. He also shot 83 percent from the free-throw line.
With Punter leading the way, State Fair advanced all the way to the 2014 NJCAA Championship Tournament in Hutchinson, Kan., where it fell in the round of 16 and finished with a 26-7 overall record. Punter scored 28 and 24 points in State Fair's two games at the tournament.
As a freshman for the Roadrunners in 2012-13, Punter averaged 12.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists.
He was coached at State Fair Community College by Kevin Thomas.
Punter graduated from Salesian High School in New Rochelle, N.Y., in 2011. He was coached there by John Miressi and finished as the school's second all-time leading scorer. The New York State Sportswriters Association named Punter the 2011 Class B State Player of the Year and an All-State performer after he averaged 28.2 points as a senior.
Following high school, Punter spent one year attending Body of Christ Christian Academy in Raleigh, N.C. In his lone season there, he averaged 24.2 points and 2.5 steals.
Punter is the second player to sign with Tyndall since the coach was introduced at UT on April 22. Forward Jabari McGhee signed with the Vols last Friday.

Global logistics: CEVA rolls out new LCL service

Global third-party logistics (3PL) services provider CEVA Logistics recently announced it is ramping up its less-than-container-load (LCL) service offerings, with the addition of a new service from Hamburg to New York.
Company officials said that this is the first of several LCL offerings the company will offer shippers through the remainder of 2011, explaining that these offerings provide faster cargo availability and a lower risk of U.S. custom holds and other related expenses.
"Our motivation has been focused on having more control over the cargo," said Greg Scott, Global LCL Director for CEVA. "One of CEVA's key global initiatives is Ocean so we've been able to dedicate service support internally and in turn support direct consolidations."
The importance of ocean services has always been evident, and it became one of the company's top strategic initiatives earlier this year, according to Scott.
When asked what the biggest benefits of this new LCL service are for shippers, Scott cited more control over the cargo, decreased potential for customs holds, quicker availability of the cargo at its destination, and the use of the IPI network CEVA is working through. And he also said that the increased speed also allows for more efficient services to the rest of the U.S.
"Germany has historically been an incredibly competitive market but over the years we have built the volumes required to justify this direct service offering," said Scott. "Our customers have supported the volumes and have enabled us to provide this direct offering."

TV & Radio
A new season of GIRLS is upon us, which means we're due for endless conversations about why Lena Dunham insists on subjecting her audience to the apparently horrifying fact of her naked body.
Dunham's nudity, we are told, is 'confusing'. So confusing that two years after the show's debut, TV journalists are still scratching their heads and seeking to solve the abstract riddle of it - as if the most interesting thing about a show exploring the landscape of a young woman's life is that she occasionally takes her clothes off without shame or the purpose of pleasing an invisible male gaze.
Dunham recently participated in a panel discussion ahead of tonight's debut of season three. Predictably, the nudity question arose again, this time posed by The Wrap's TV writer Tim Molloy.
Molloy opined:
"I don't get the purpose of all of the nudity on the show, by you particularly, and I feel like I'm walking into a trap where you go, "Nobody complains about the nudity on 'Game of Thrones' but I get why they are doing it. They are doing it to be salacious and, you know, titillate people. And your character is often naked just at random times for no reason."
There are literally hundreds of questions that Molloy could have asked that would have been more interesting than a topic that has enjoyed more exposure than even Dunham's breasts, but I guess the sight of a woman unafraid to show the world what a stomach looks like when sitting hunched over in the bath remains hypnotic to those people with limited imagination.
As many people have already pointed out, nudity in art doesn't exist merely to provide titillation. To think otherwise is to demonstrate a fairly narrow appreciation for the complexities that art has to offer.
Given Molloy has been defending his question by claiming he sought to gain insight into artistic choices, one might be justified in questioning if he has the necessary credentials to write on the subject in the first place.
But this isn't just about Molloy, conscious sexism, titillation or even artistic expression. The fact is, if Dunham's body more closely resembled the rigid standards of beauty we're used to seeing modelled in Hollywood, no one would even think to question how often she paraded about with her clothes off.
Dunham's nudity upsets the norm, and this is what confuses people. Why, if she isn't aiming to titillate, does she insist on incorporating her naked body into the story all the time? I mean...what's the point?
That, my friends, IS the point. Dunham's Hannah Horvath offers what she calls 'a realistic expression of what it means to be alive'.
Sometimes, that means eating food in the bath or getting high and swapping clothes with a stranger at a nightclub.
Sometimes it means disappearing into a quiet world with a new lover and playing ping pong in nothing but your underpants, even though that might seem strange to people removed from the magical intimacy of that moment.
Sometimes it means removing your clothes in a hurry before sex and shuffling back on the bed with little thought as to whether or not this is the most flattering way to present yourself to a new partner.
Hannah Horvath lives in a world where women are told that if we want to look thin in bed, we should have sex in the missionary position.
Like most of us, she has internalised these instructions while occasionally ignoring them when the spontaneity of life gets in the way.
There's a conflict inside her between the actual self and the constructed one, and that struggle is so much a part of her that it doesn't even register as something she can be liberated from.
This is partly what it feels like to understand that your entire being is viewed socially, culturally and individually through the idea of the male gaze. And the reason it's so confusing to people is because it isn't cast through the male gaze but the female. Dunham is not inviting a masculine reading of her life and body.
It isn't presented as a 'titillation' or a reward. In terms of that internal conflict between the real and constructed self, she is baring all (figuratively and literally) to offer a realistic view of the internal life of one particular woman, as told by her and recognisable to countless others unused to seeing themselves in such raw terms.
Molloy and his ilk lament the purposelessness of Hannah's nudity because they are unable to understand that it is precisely this purposelessness that makes it so purposeful.
There are undoubtedly problems with world presented in GIRLS, the documented lack of diversity being chief among them (although Dunham has said she's sought to educate herself about intersectionality and inclusivity, a commitment not shared by around 99.9 percent of her fellow writers and directors).
I'm a huge fan, but I understand that it's not for everyone. But it is not 'confusing' or 'weird' that its central character spends a moderate amount of her time on the show in a state of partial or total nudity.
If it were the blonde, willowy Jemima Kirke who was shown so often to be naked and cavorting with handsome men (and it has been seriously argued that Dunham is too 'ugly' to be able to land half of Hannah's boyfriends, an obnoxious theory that I don't recall being applied to Steve Buscemi, James Gandolfini, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogan or any of the other countless old, fat and less than chiselled leading men paired with women so beautiful it can hurt to look at them) then no one would bat an eyelid. Kim Cattrall, anyone?
For his part, Molloy has defended his question as reasonable and in keeping with a TV writer's job of exploring the motivations of creators. But aside from the fact the nudity issue has been explored to within a thread of its scantily clad point, it's just not remotely interesting as a line of enquiry.
If you can't comprehend the reasons Lena Dunham chooses to incorporate nudity in the way that she has, then not only are you arguably not a very good arts journalist - you also probably don't understand women all that well.

Intel wants you to talk to your Ultrabook, enlists Nuance Dragon Assistant to help
Intel has teamed up with Nuance to bring voice dictation to the next wave of Ultrabooks expected to launch over the coming months.
Like Apple's Siri and Google's Voice search offerings on mobile phones, the new software will let laptop users talk to their computer, asking it to do set tasks such as searching the internet or tweeting out a message.
Announced at the Intel Developer Forum in the US, the new Nuance Dragon Assistant Beta is a voice assistant application for the Intel-inspired Ultrabooks and the first offering resulting from the two companies' strategic collaboration announced at CES 2012 in January.
Dadi Perlmutter, Intel chief product officer, demonstrated Dragon Assistant Beta at the IDF in San Francisco. The company has confirmed the Dell XPS13 Ultrabook will be among the first PCs to ship with Dragon Assistant Beta before Christmas 2012.
Dragon Assistant uses Nuance's core Dragon voice technology and innovative natural language understanding capabilities to provide people with an easy and intuitive way to engage and interact with their devices, the two companies explained. Users will be able to say, "Hello Dragon" to awaken Dragon Assistant, and from there, just speak to search the web. Intel suggests people will be able to say, "Search YouTube for Justin Bieber" - although we would recommend against saying that out loud. When finished using Dragon Assistant, simply say, "Go to sleep" for the application to stop listening.
"Dragon Assistant is a direct result of Nuance and Intel's vision for a more human, natural interaction between people and their technology," said Peter Mahoney, chief marketing officer, Nuance Communications. "You speak and the Ultrabook responds. Working closely with Intel, we've created a voice assistant experience optimised for the Ultrabook – incredibly fast, reliable, and with the performance you expect from a combined Nuance-Intel innovation. Dragon Assistant drives productivity, creativity and simply a PC experience that fits today's busy lifestyle."
The new tech is just one of the many new toys Intel has so far shown off at the forum. Others include highlighting the range of convertible laptops announced at IFA from companies like Dell and Asus, and as well as including NFC in your laptop, so you can tap your credit card on your computer to pay for things.

Giles Corey utter these words during the Salem Witch Trials. Accused of being a warlock, Corey was arrested on April 18, 1692. At that time, a person could not be tried unless he entered a plea of "guilty" or "not guilty." When Corey refused to plea, he was tortured by the authorities, who laid a heavy board on top of him and placed large stones on the board. Every time they asked for a plea, Corey simply said, "More weight." Eventually Corey was crushed to death. Visitors to the Witch City can see Corey's grave marker, and the Witch Trials Memorial, in Salem Cemetery.

Quick and simple ordering process especially when previous orders are remembered and can be added to your cart with 1 click!
EXCELLENT JOB!! We placed our order online well before our planned trip to WDW (6+ months before). Due to an foreseen event we not only had to change our date of our trip and therefore our order date, but also had to change our resort. The transition was handled beautifully with very limited interaction on our part. In fact, we were waiting at WDW Express when we received the email that our groceries had been delivered to our resort. FANTASTIC!
Great communication throughout the ordering and delivery process.

About this design:
A friend gave me a late B-day gift of money & told me I had to spend it on beads. No problem. One of the things I got was this kit from SmittenBeads called Sea Breeze. Coming from England of course that took awhile. Then when I did get it I was stumped...for ages. I got the summer issue of Jewelry Stringing magazine & a necklace featured in the Modern Cowgirl projects broke my block. My necklace really looks nothing like it though...
My clasp is one of those gold sun buttons I've had for 10 years & a gold chandelier pendant finding which I cut the loops off.
1st page of mag has full page LB ad that says "Czech, please!"
Mousey & ButterBall have a new toy. A large carpet covered tree from my friend. Her cat crossed the rainbow bridge.
Components:Sea Breeze kit which includes seed beads in seafoam lined topaz I think, czech glass in sea shell shapes & rounds, dark green & seafoam glass, small gold bead, large plated faceted gold beads, silk chiffon ribbon, gold plated sun button & gold.pendant finding.
Read the comments (or add your own)
Oooo Deb! This is so pretty and beachy! Love it!
Mousey and BB look like they're enjoying their new tree very much!
Susie they are asleep on it right now. It's the best thing in the world to them.
Thanks Susie…its been in a half finished state for 3 weeks…still not sure.
So gorgeous Deb! Loving the beachy feel of it.
Our cat doesn't like his tree.
Really??? He doesn't like it?!? This thing is huge!!! Much bigger than the ones you see at Pet Smart…she got it at Big Lots.
As soon as I saw this I knew it had to be yours Deb. Absolutely beautiful!
I'm from Canada, don't know if we have a Big Lots here.
You should demand one!! LOL! They sell discontinued and last year models of appliances, furniture, electronics, overstocks from drugstores & grocery stores. Pretty cool stores.
I love this Deb…it's gorgeous and now I want to go to the beach! Big fan of BigLots here also, and ours is just one mile away from me!
Deb, I agree it's so beachy! I like how one strand is "full" and the others are little vignettes. Makes it so much more breezy and open.
Holy Moly!!! BB is getting SO big! Heidi and Hannah have a "condo" like that and I can just peek on the top of 4 levels. It's huge and it takes over my living room. But they love it!!! And they *DO* own this place, right???
Beautiful design, Deb!
Butterball is so big!
Hey Deb, Love your beachy looking necklace. Its sooo pretty. I have a "cat" house in my living room right in front of a double window. They're either sleeping or looking out the window. Sometimes I find them sleeping in Teddy's bed but they love the cat house. Sometimes Maxi will get on the back of the chair that's right next to the cat house and move the curtain aside so he get a clear view of the yard and street.
Just gorgeous!
This is just beautiful!!I love the sun button and the silk ribbon. Great necklace!
Thank you everyone. I was still not really sure about it but the more I look at it the more I'm happy with it. Its one of those that you battle to get it on right because of the syring. I forgot to say it all on S-lon cord.
LOL Julie yes Mouse is the boss of the house…I sing that to him everyday. BB is his PIC (partner in crime). And yes he's getting to be a big boy but such a love bug. Nancy you should take a photo of this cat house.
Bah… " string"….
Wow! I love this!! Especially the sun button! It looks so light and airy, just what you'd want on a hot summer day.
Wanda, I didn't think there was a cat on the planet that didn't like those carpet covered trees. We have a two story little house from Job Lots that's used for sleeping, looking out the window and hiding toys. Every time I move it to clean seems to cause alarm, like I'm going to take it away or something!
Thank you so much & HAHAHAHA at the cat anxiety.
I think this is your best work yet (of course I love all your pieces. Very striking and love how everything flows together.
I'm sorry your friend lost her kitty, it was nice of her to give you the tree.
Deb, there is so much movement in this piece and the beads are amazing
Thank you Asia & Peggy. Peggy her cat was 15 I think. Her parents actually found him in the middle of a busy highway and brought him home for her and Marina. He was big cross-eyed demanding Siamese…a big goofball. Keke will be missed.
OK, Deb, I saw your comment on FB's Bohemian necklace first and I want to assure you that you definitely do excellent Boho yourself!! This is beyond fantastic! My Raleigh daughter would LOVE it. If you ever head that direction, be sure to let me know so I can hook you 2 up.
Oh and those kitties and their new possession are beyond adorable!!! You guys are just "beyond" today. !!!! xoxo
This necklace really says "sunshine & seashore"!
The cats are looking good.
3 of my original 6 kittens got adopted on Saturday.
Love these soft muted colors, Deb. This is a wonderful summery necklace!
Very nice. I just love the clasp!
Very cool! I especially love the sun and the silk!
Love this! It's all my favorite colors, love the silk tie, I want to do that same thing with sari silk on a necklace! Just beautiful!
