Reviews for Carnival Caramel Apples
"The caramel tasted amazing and the apples look just so beautiful, but I think I lost a filling biting into them, I must have done something wrong:( any suggestions, or is this how they are suppossed to be? super fun making them though, used a candy thermometer and all seemed perfect just texture not right."
"Have used this recipe for years with no failure! LoveThis Time Of The Year!To Smithian. Making caramel is easy if you follow the directions. Plus, always wash apples with hot water to remove any wax they may have on them from processing. If not, thecarmels won't stick right! Just a note. Good Luck! Give it another try! Patience-Youll get it!"
"Absolutely loved this recipe! I make caramel apples every year and this recipe really has the richest tasting caramel yet! It's really important that you let the caramel boil for several minutes before adding the sweetened milk. Then let it lightly boil after you add the milk until it reaches your desired temp. I didn't quite let it get to 248 because it started browning before then. I made 2 batches and they both turned out wonderful!! Really helped to spray the paper with cooking spray to keep them from sticking too."
"Made these last night. The caramel was a bit stiff, but I'll adjust the cooking temperature next time. Everybody loved the apples!!In response to the one-star review below - you need to be careful when making caramel that it doesn't drop below the boiling point as you are adding the Milk/Cream. I've had that happen before and it ruins the caramel. You just have to throw it out and start over. At least that is my experience. :)"
"We tried this recipe again with much better results. We cooked the caramel to 220? instead of 248?. It was not as thick but we let it cool for a minute or two before dipping the apples."

A mapping site that uses a compare-and-contrast model and produces better results, a gadget-loving site that's designed for women and a game that will waste just seconds of your time … if you're good, but hours if you're awesome at it.
Dual Maps
This is a site that adapts competing mapping technologies (for Google and Bing) and presents them side by side, and proves that combining them makes them stronger.
There are actually three views, as you'll see upon loading and whenever you type in any address.
On the left, you will see two: the street view and map view of Google.
On the right is the "bird's eye" view that Bing offers, showing an aerial view of your subject at an angle.
With an extra three-dimensional view, your map searches will probably seem richer.
I landed on this site to read a story about comparison-shopping for light bulbs, especially with the move to energy-saving options. I poked around the site and found it helpful.
It also has a target audience: women.
This is probably a sensible move in the rather crowded market of websites all about gadgets and tech; if you haven't noticed by now, a great many of them are not only designed for guys, but young guys at that.
The focus is still pretty sharp, with updates on current products … just minus the salivating, "we got it first" breathlessness that mars some tech blogs.
Also missing: a lot of the jargon. I think a lot of men can get behind that too!
Chain Reaction
Time is often tight when you're at a computer, so a game that can be played during a very brief break is much valued.
I like Chain Reaction for that reason, although I'll caution that it can also be addictive.
The point is to release a ball on the screen so that it will be struck by ricocheting dots, that then form the chain reaction of the title.
When hit, they form a larger ball, but one that doesn't last long, so aim is important.
Well, you'll figure it out, quickly.
Killing Kennedy
Last November, to mark the 50th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the National Geographic channel televised a film starring Rob Lowe as the ill-fated JFK.
The companion website is about the actual story, not the dramatization, with an emphasis on how the very different lives of Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald unfolded before intersecting in Dallas in November 1963.
A good part of the Internet is that it allows anyone with a visual flair to post their work.
The downside? There's just so much of it.
The value of a blog like Pondly is that photographs, drawings, designs and other nice things are curated and described, and rather well at that.
A chance encounter a few days ago turned into an extended visit.
Knowledge Nuts
There's a vogue on the web now for short, fact-packed little essays along the lines of "bet you didn't know this."
Mental Floss, one of my favourite magazines and websites, specializes in it, but there are many others, and here's one.
Knowledge Nuts collects small pieces on a pretty eclectic range of topics, such as the unsung scientist who created the artificial diamond used in countless everyday devices, to the neo-Nazi past of the man who created the Josey Wales character made famous by Clint Eastwood. The best part? Links to the evidence at the bottom.

Kerry en route to Middle East in effort to save crumbling Israeli-Palestinian peace talks
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is back in the Middle East in another effort to keep the crumbling Israeli-Palestinian peace talks going after Israel retracted its promise to release a final group of Palestinian prisoners earlier this week, according to Agence France Presse.
"After consulting with his team, Secretary Kerry decided it would be productive to return to the region," State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki told the media.
Kerry previously interrupted a trip to Rome last week to meet with Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas in Amman in an attempt to convince him to continue talks with Israeli negotiators beyond the April 29 deadline.
However, Abbas has largely refused to entertain ideas about extending the talks until the prisoners are released as agreed to under the decision to resume the peace talks in the first place last July.
Kerry is expected to meet with both Israeli and Palestinian leaders in the upcoming hours.

blondies, infinitely adaptable
I'm back! But not really, as I got home an hour ago, whipped up a batch of the only blondie recipe you'll ever need for our favorite blondie's umpteenth 25th birthday and now I have about 45 minutes to find something in my closet that camouflages my sling because ugh, it's such an eyesore. (On the flipside, when I don't wear it and someone bumps into me I get all outraged like 'don't you know my shoulder is injured?!' Well, no Debbie, they don't.)

Journos face indictment
under Thailand's cybercrime law
REGIONAL PRESS FREEDOM advocates have expressed concern over the scheduled indictment of two journalists in Thailand for criminal defamation and violation of the country's Computer Crime Act (CCA).
The Southeast Asian Press Alliance, a regional alliance of media organizations advocating press freedom, said the indictment of Alan Morison and Chutima Sidasathian "may spell doom" for their online news site, Phuketwan.
In an emailed alert sent out to news bureaus in the region, SEAPA said the two journalists will be indicted before the provincial prosecutors' office on March 10. The two are accused of defaming the Royal Thai Navy and for violating the Computer Crime Act in a report on the plight of Burmese Muslim refugees in Thailand.
Violation of Thailand's Computer Crime Act carries a penalty of five years. The Philippines is also grappling with its own cybercrime law after the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of several provisions in Republic Act 10175, or the Cybercrime Prevention Act. One of the provisions ruled as constitutional defines cyber libel and increases the penalty for crimes committed using computers by one degree.
The SEAPA alert quoted Chutima as saying that the online news site will almost certainly fold up with the recent developments, as all of the site's junior staff had already resigned "because of mental pressure."
"Without me and Alan outside jail, it is likely the newspaper would be closed," Chutima was quoted as saying. Phuketwan has won several human rights awards for stories on the plight of Rohingya Muslim refugees.

Even in death, Christopher Rivera's family wanted to remember him as a boxing champ. Family and friends attended his wake on Friday to remember the deceased young man. The New York Post reported a story about Rivera's unusual burial request. His family made good on his last wish and propped Rivera's body up in a mock boxing ring. His embalmed body looked like a mannequin.
Rivera stood in the ring for one last time wearing his traditional boxing gear. Rivera's mother, wife, and son posed with him for one last tribute. Mourners took pictures as keepsakes to remember the fallen boxer. River died last Sunday from a fatal shooting. For now, authorities haven't charged anyone with Rivera's death. He boxed as a lightweight and finished his career with a 5-15 record.
According to The Box Rec website, Rivera boxed as a lightweight with four knockouts.
Complete details about this burial are available at the NY Post website.

Talent that I've not only seen as someone who enjoys watching and voting for the RPG Superstar, but many of whom I've had the privileged of working with in the pages of Adventure Quarterly.
Such as RPG Superstar 2012, Mike Welham, who's Sealing the Vault appears in Adventure Quarterly #3, or Matt Banach (RPG Superstar 2009 Top 16) who's Dream Harvest is also within AQ#3. Speaking of RPG Superstar 2009, its Top 8 also lent us T.H. Gulliver who has appeared in AQ issues #1 and #2.
We owe a lot to the RPG Superstar competition, as it has encouraged a lot of talent to join the freelancing pool that feeds the industry and our magazine. It'd be a lot more difficult to fill the pages of Adventure Quarterly without such encouragement.
Speaking of Adventure Quarterly: If folks are interested in submitting to Adventure Quarterly, just click here and you shall find the link to the submission guidelines on our page at Rite Publishing.

Upper Division Interdisciplinary Studio
Art & Crime: Creative Pursuits Around Breaking the Law
Instructor: Kota Ezawa
SF / UDIST–300 / 15 sessions
Prerequisite: Jr standing
August 4-22, Mon.-Fri., 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
The connections between art and crime are countless. Art theft and forgery produce headlines with great frequency. Well known artworks have been physically attacked and vandalized using knifes, acids, paints and other tools. Crime has inspired significant works of art,from Wegee's crimes scene photographs to Andy Warhol's "13 Most Wanted Men." Art has also functioned as a platform to bring attention to the living conditions of prison inmates.
Students in this course will produce works in visual art, film and writing in response to visits of criminal justice institutions, conversations with inmate rights activists and discussions with artists whose work has been subject to legal controversy, censorship or confiscation. The course will provide a foray into Ai Wei Wei's forthcoming exhibition at San Francisco's landmark prison Alcatraz through meetings with organizers of the event. Each student will realize a project that will reflect crime in its research, form of execution or presentation context. While students are obligated to respect laws of civil conduct they are encouraged to break any barrier confining their medium, practice or approach.
This course satisfies an Upper Division Interdisciplinary Studio requirement or a Studio Elective.
The following summer study abroad and off-campus courses also satisfy an Upper Division Interdisciplinary studio:
Italy: Art and Contemporary Culture
Marfa Fieldwork Project
Paris: Animation by Design
Scotland/London: Rural/Urban

Pinching pennies never felt so good! Check out our picks for the best bargains in Massachusetts for 2013. Your wallet will thank you.

BENESKI MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, Amherst

The 2013 season was a memorable one for the University of Colorado volleyball program as the Buffs recorded their first season above .500 (18-14) for the first time since 2006.
It was also the first time since 2006 that the Buffs advanced to the NCAA Tournament; their 17th overall appearance in the tournament. The Buffs climbed the Pac-12 Conference ladder as well, and finished the season tied for seventh with a 9-11 record.
Colorado hosted St. Mary's (Calif.) to start the season on back-to-back nights at the Coors Events Center. CU dropped its home opener (1-3) but bounced back on the following night to defeat the Gaels with the same score (3-1).
The Buffs kept rolling the following weekend at the Candlewood Suites Invitational in Syracuse, N.Y. CU picked up four wins against Stony Brook, Oakland, Rutgers and Syracuse to win the tournament. Junior outside hitter Taylor Simpson was named the tournament's MVP and sophomore setter Nicole Edelman was selected to the all-tournament team.
The next weekend, CU headed back to Big 12 country to play at the Baylor Invitational in Waco, Texas, but despite the trip away from Boulder, the team's thoughts were with the community as Boulder was experiencing one of the most devastating floods in Colorado history. The team left for Texas, but senior middle blocker Nikki Lindow stayed to help her family save their ranch.
The Buffs focused on the task at hand and defeated Appalachian State (3-2) and Northwestern State (3-0) on Sept. 13, but their toughest test would be BU on Sept. 14. The Buffs had lost the previous eight meetings against the Bears while members of the Big 12 Conference and coach Liz Kritza had never beaten the Bears while at CU. Things back in Boulder had settled a bit, so Lindow was able to rejoin the team for the match. CU shocked BU, sweeping the Bears in three sets to win the BU Invitational. Edelman was named the MVP and senior outside hitter Kerra Schroeder was the defensive MVP. Sophomore outside hitter Alexis Austin and freshman libero Cierra Simpson were also named to the all-tournament team.
After that tournament, CU was 8-1, which included an eight-match winning streak that tied for the fifth best in CU history. But it was time to switch gears and start the Pac-12 season.
The Buffs started the conference season at Utah, and despite putting up a great fight and taking Utah to five sets in Salt Lake City, CU fell 15-12 in the fifth set, snapping the eight-match win streak. The Buffs didn't dwell on the loss with a tough test looming just three days later when they opened their home Pac-12 schedule against No. 11 UCLA. CU came out strong and defeated the Bruins for the first time ever in a thrilling five-set match in front of a season-best crowd of 2,777 at the CEC. The win was Kritza's first against a ranked team.
CU had one last regular season non-conference match following the win over UCLA. The Buffs headed north on I-25 to Laramie, Wyo. to face the Cowgirls. CU lost the first two sets, but dominated the next two games to force a fifth set. Unfortunately UW came out strong in the fifth set and won 15-11 to take the match.
The Buffs returned home to the CEC and rebounded well as they picked up play in the Pac-12. CU welcomed top-ranked Washington, which was a perfect 10-0 on the season, but the Buffs were ready and soundly defeated the Huskies in four sets for their second win ever against a top-ranked program. The last time the Buffs beat a No. 1 team was in 2006 when they knocked off Nebraska. The win was also CU's second against a ranked opponent in a week, which CU hadn't done since 2005.
CU kept rolling, defeating a feisty Washington State team just two days later, also in four sets, and improved to 3-1 in the Pac-12. The Buffs left the CEC for a four-match road trip that didn't treat them very well. CU dropped three straight to Cal, No. 8 Stanford and No. 21 Oregon, before facing Oregon State. Colorado had not won a Pac-12 road match since entering the league in 2011, but things were about to change and the Buffs broke that streak on Oct. 20 with a sweep over OSU in Corvallis, Ore. It was also the first conference road victory for CU since 2010.
The Buffs returned home after that tough four-match road trip and the CEC continued to be a daunting place for opponents to play. CU hosted its third ranked opponent of the season, No. 25 Arizona, and once again the Buffs pulled off the upset (25-18, 25-19, 25-23). CU kept going and picked up a four-set win (25-22, 17-25, 26-24, 25-23) against Arizona State.
The Buffs hit the road to start the second half of the Pac-12 season and were determined to keep on the winning track. They went down 0-2 to WSU at Pullman, Wash., but rallied back to win the match in five (22-25, 19-25, 25-15, 25-20, 15-13) for their second road conference win of the season.
The No. 3 UW Huskies were next, but this time they took revenge on the Buffs (18-25, 15-25, 19-25). CU dropped the following four matches; including two at home against No. 6 Stanford and No. 22 Cal, for the first home conference losses of the season. CU also dropped contests to Arizona State and Arizona.
With four regular season matches remaining, three of those at the CEC, the Buffs needed to get back on track and that was exactly what they did in the next match against OSU. CU picked up the sweep (28-26, 25-21, 25-20) against the Beavers, but couldn't keep the momentum going, falling to Oregon two days later (27-29, 21-25, 25-20, 13-25).
The final home match of the season came against Utah and the Buffs wanted revenge for the close loss that started the Pac-12 season. It was another extremely close match, but CU pulled away with the five-set victory (16-25, 25-23, 23-25, 25-22, 16-14), finishing with a 7-3 conference record at the CEC.
CU had one final match of the regular season, this one against No. 7 USC in Los Angeles. The Buffs fought hard, but the Trojans pulled away with the win (26-24, 25-14, 25-21). CU finished the regular season 17-13 and was selected to compete in their first NCAA Tournament since 2006.
The first round of the tournament brought CU its second former Big 12 opponent of the season, Iowa State. The Buffs dropped the first set to the Cyclones, but bounced back to win the next three to take the match, snapping a five-match losing streak to ISU, and more importantly, move on to the second round of the tournament for the ninth-time in CU history. Junior Kelsey English served up six aces in the win, the most ever by a Buff in a single NCAA match.
The Buffs squared off against No. 10 Minnesota, the host, in the second round the following night. The Gophers took the first two sets (25-20, 25-18) before CU rallied to win the next two sets (25-17, 25-21). The match went down to the wire, but UM took the set 15-9 to end CU's magical season.
The Buffs finished the nonconference schedule with a 9-3 record (.750), finishing at or above .500 for the 25th straight season.
Taylor Simpson led the Buffs with 390 kills (3.61 kills per set) and ranked eighth in the Pac-12 while hitting .173 during the season. She was also ninth in the conference in points per set (4.03). Austin ranked second on the team with 278 kills (2.65 kills per set) and Schroeder was third with 221 kills (1.87 kills per set). English was fifth in the Pac-12 in hitting efficiency at .361 (213 kills and 50 errors on 452 attacks) and ranked third in service aces with 0.36 per set. Lindow had the second-best hitting percentage on the team at .335 and averaged 2.01 kills per set. She ranked 10th in league-only matches with a .321 hitting percentage.
Edelman surpassed the 2,000-career assists mark during the year, adding 1,145 during the season (10.13 assists per set) which was sixth in the Pac-12. In league only stats, she was fourth with 10.10 assists per set. In total, Edelman has recorded 2,205 assists, which is seventh all-time at CU.
Freshman libero Cierra Simpson recorded 372 digs and averaged 3.21 digs per set while her sister Taylor Simpson ranked second on the team with 2.32 digs per set (288 digs). Schroeder played a huge role in the back row and ranked third on the squad with 2.32 digs per set (274 digs).
Lindow led the Buffs for the fourth straight season at the net, the first Buff ever to do so, with 133 blocks (15 solo and 118 assists). Her 1.23 blocks per set ranked seventh in the league and she was also eighth in league-only matches with 1.22 blocks per set. Lindow became the fourth Buff to record 400 or more career blocks and finished third on the all-time chart with 426. English added 0.72 blocks per set (84 total) and Taylor Simpson was third on the team with 0.63 blocks per set (68 total).
The Buffs earned a lot of well-deserved recognition for their hard work. Taylor Simpson was named the CU Athlete of the Week four times and Austin, Edelman and English each were honored with the award once. Lindow picked up CU's first ever Pac-12 Volleyball Defensive Player of the Week on Sept. 30 after guiding CU to its five-set win against No. 11 UCLA.
The honors were beyond the regular season and a trio of Buffs were named to Pac-12 honorable mention teams. Edelman and Simpson were each selected to the All-Pac-12 honorable mention squad and Cierra Simpson was selected to the Pac-12 All-Freshman honorable mention team. Taylor Simpson was also recognized regionally for her season as she was named to the AVCA All-Pacific South Region honorable mention team, CU's first all-region honoree since 2006.
Several Buffs were recognized for their accomplishments off the court. Richardson was named to the Academic All-Pac-12 First Team for the third straight season. Jessica Aschenbrenner, Edelman, English and Schroeder received honorable mention honors.
The Buffs will celebrate their year's accomplishments with a season-ending banquet on January 18.

Penfolds Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz 2010
Syrah/Shiraz from Coonawarra, Australia
Winemaker's Notes
Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz 2010 has a crimson, deep-red core. On the nose, it is delicately scented with fragrances of lavender, rosemary, and rose petal. Also, well-absorbed oak (cedar), and a suggestion of regional artefact — spearmint and blackcurrant pastille. The subtle background scents of fruit mince, sage, and brown butter cautiously seep in to fill any aromatic void. On the palate, it this is a lively wine. Intense, generous and vibrant fruits - with volume! Stewed quince, rhubarb and loquat laced with cocoa, cedary oak. Mouth-coating, ripe tannins augment an even and sweet palate continuum... textured and complete. Structurally, everything in place, in tune.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Opaque ruby. Sexy oak-spiced aromas of cherry-cola, boysenberry and pipe tobacco. Lush and creamy in texture, with intense dark fruit flavors lifted by juicy acidity. Dusty tannins add shape to a long, sappy, appealingly sweet finish. This wine is a baby.
Rating: 90(+?)"
Wine & Spirits - "A convivial, lively shiraz, 128 offers red fruit vibrancy balanced by round, spicy tannins. Its simple berry-scented fruit will keep you chewing on the bones long after the lamb chops are gone."
Penfolds Wines Winery
Penfolds has been producing remarkable wines since 1844 and indisputably led the development of Australian fine wine in the modern era. The introduction of Penfolds Grange in 1951 forever changed the landscape of Australian fine wine. Since then a series of stand-out wines both white and red have been released under the Penfolds masthead.
Peter Gago, Penfolds Chief Winemaker and only the 4th custodian of Grange, relishes the opportunity to bring Penfolds to the world stage and is an enthusiastic ambassador and natural educator. Penfolds came to the attention of the US market when 1990 Grange was Wine Spectator's 'Wine of the Year'. Since then, Penfolds Grange has become one of the most collectable wines of the world and was honored to grace the front cover, once again, of Wine Spectator, with declarations of Grange as Australia's Icon
About CoonawarraView a map of Coonawarra wineries
Located on the Limestone Coast of South Australia, Coonawarra is quite flat, except for the vineyards, which are slightly elevated. That, along with the proximity to the ocean and frequent cloud cover, Coonawarra never gets too hot. There is a small strip of soil, about nine miles long and two miles wide, called Terra Rossa, or red earth. It is the coveted place to plant Shiraz & Cabernet Sauvignon in this small region.
Notable FactsCabernet Sauvignon is the grape of choice here. There is a good amount of Shiraz planted as well, and blends of the two are popular. Cabernet grown in the Terra Rossa shows a sense of place, and the wines are in high demand. The wine is elegant in structure, with prominent acidity and firm tannins, while being full of ripe fruit flavors typical of Australia's style.
About AustraliaLike the United States, which is about the same size, Australia's winemaking regions are huddled into one or two pockets of the country. The state of South Australia, which produces about 60% of the country's wine, also has the most wineries and sub-regions, including McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Coonawarra and Barossa Valley. New South Wales is home to the Hunter Valley, while the smaller, southern state of Victoria is best known for theYarra Valley. Head way west to the very large state of Western Australia and you'll find the tiny region of Margaret River at the southern tip.

Summer is a great time to brush up on academic skills, taking up a course or participating in an enrichment program. Some students take this time to learn something new, whether enhancing their test-taking strategies or for some, student need to retake a course. Many tutoring programs and centers offer a variety of curriculum. Some offer a customized curriculum to meet the needs of the students and develop a program that have long-lasting impact on student learning.
For some parents, they maybe bombarded with choices or options to select the appropriate tutoring programs. It can certainly be overwhelming since there are plenty of services and your child may have several interests. Options such as one-on-one tutoring, in-home tutoring, group, or online services are prominent. For students, they have to know what they can best improve on or classes/courses to explore.
Here are some tips for parents when selecting the most appropriate type of tutoring programs for the summer:
1. Find out what your child/student needs the most attention. - Does your child need to improve on writing skills? Help with writing college applications? Does your child need to remediate a course? What areas did you feel your child struggled the most during school year or areas for improvement?
2. Check with your child's teacher or guidance counselor for feedback and suggestions. - Teachers and guidance counselors can offer the most solid recommendations and insights since they interact with your child throughout the school year. Ask what they think your child needs the most help and areas they feel they can best benefit.
3. Create a family summer plan. - Balance is the key during the summer. Taking advantage of the summer to brush up on academics is important, but so is spending time with family and doing productive activities. Spending quality time with family, like going on vacation, are usually a great opportunity to bond with others. So, plan ahead and have your family identify big (and fun) activities coming up while engaging in school-related activities, such as tutoring, summer camps, or enrichment programs.
4. Invest time researching best fit tutoring programs and services. - Are you open to online tutoring or just face-to-face learning? Does your child need a special-needs focused curriculum and instruction? Do you prefer customized tutoring options, where flexibility with time and location are important? Are you willing to pay for private, in-home tutoring? Are you looking for programs that provide you the materials? Ask families and friends if they know someone or a tutoring center that can provide you the support you need for your child. Ask for referrals if needed.
5. Check out "free" tutoring programs in your neighborhood. - Perhaps your local library or a community-based organizations offer tutoring and mentoring programs during the summer. Check out your local church groups as they also offer weekdays and/or weekend activities geared towards school activities and functions. Some summer camps combine physical activities and field trips with tutoring.
When it comes to tutoring or participating in academics-focused programs during the summer, parents can make an informed decision by learning what your child needs the most help. If it's skills development or specific course that your child needs support, rest assured there are definitely options available.

The Caretaker Minister for Sports, Tourism, Archaeology, Museums and Youth Affairs Mr Salim Jan Babar visited the historical heritage sites of Gor Khatri, Sethai House and Ganta Ghar today. The Minister was accompanied by the Secretary Sports, Tourism, Archaeology, Museums and Youth Affairs Syed Jamal uddin Shah and was briefed by Director Archaeology and Museums Dr Shah Nazar.
Gor Khatri is an archaeological complex in the walled city of Peshawar. Its importance is equal for both Hindus and Muslims as it has a Mandar and a Masjid both in the same compound. The Director informed the Minister about its history from the early Chinese pilgrims visit to Hindus performing Sardukar ritual Shaving off Heads, while during the Mughal reign it was converted into a caravanserai and named it Sarai Jahanabad, during the Sikh era the site was then converted into a residence and was the official headquarters of their mercenary. The Hindu temple was constructed during the Sikh era. Later on Gor Khatri became headquarters of the fire brigade department and also served as a Tehsil headquarter of Peshawar.
During an interview with a reporter the worthy Minister said that the purpose of this visit is to firstly visit the historical site and appreciate its importance in conservation. Secondly there have been some negative reports in the media about unlawful construction and demolition.
The Minister stressed that these areas should be regularly opened to the general public to visit and tours arranged for the students at large to learn more about their heritage. The Minister also said that many departments are operating at Gor Khatri and there should be coordination among them.
The Minister encouraged the plan of the Secretary to build a British Gallery at the Gor Khatri. He was also informed that all the sculptures at the Museum were extravagated during 20032010 in the compound of Gor Khatri.
He also visited the Cultural Tourism Site & Artisan village which will be built here soon. He was briefed about it by the Secretary and was told that there will be 36 in total stalls and will include Handicrafts, woodwork and Traditional food.
The Minister also visited a house of Ismail Sethai which was built in the 1800s then they visited the Sethai House that has been purchased by the Archaeology Department and is already completed and open to public. During the briefing the Dr Shah Nazar said this site holds a mine of information not only for the Archaeology students but also for engineering, Architects etc. The construction of this house is quite unique and has always intrigued and fascinated many tourists.
The Minister then visited Ganta Ghar. He thanked the Secretary and appreciated all the work that has been conducted in preservation of these historical sites.

Some airlines will only allow you to carry one item of hand baggage, and the weight and size allowances differ between airlines. Many low cost carriers will now allow you take one airport shopping bag as well as your hand luggage but please check before you fly.
How Much?
Cabin baggage must be no bigger, including wheels, handles and any side pockets, than:
- 56 centimetres tall (22 inches)
- 45 centimetres wide (17.7 inches)
- 25 centimetres deep (10 inches)
Check with your airline as some have stricter restrictions on the size of bags.
What's Allowed?
- All items of luggage which do not fit in the permitted cabin baggage size must be checked in to be placed in the aircraft hold.
- Musical instruments which do not fit in the permitted cabin baggage size are allowed as a second item of cabin baggage; they will need to be screened and passengers should check with their airlines if special arrangements (e.g. purchasing an extra seat) for these large instruments will be required.
- Laptops will need to be removed from your bag and screened separately in the trays provided. A laptop bag will be regarded as your one item that is allowed in the cabin.
- Pushchairs, walking aids and wheelchairs are permitted but will be screened.
Some liquids (e.g. gels, lotions, pastes, liquid cosmetics, foams and other liquid-based items) are now allowed through airport security check points subject to the following restrictions:
Liquids that can not be placed inside the re-sealable bag must be packed into the hold luggage and checked in. Liquids of any amount can still be carried in luggage checked into the aircraft hold.
Please note 'Liquids' include:
- All drinks, including water, soup, syrups
- Creams, lotions, oils, perfumes, lip gloss or lip balms, mascara etc.
- Sprays and pressurized containers including shaving foam and spray deodorants
- Pastes, including toothpastes
- Gels, including hair and shower gel
- Any other solutions and items of similar consistency
Essential medicines are permitted in larger quantities above the 100ml limit but you will need approval from your airline. We advise that you also carry your prescription or a statement from your doctor with you. Exceptions to the 100ml rule may also be made for those carrying baby food and milk but these items will be subject to additional security screening.
Duty Free and Departure Lounge Purchases
You may take on board liquid items of any size that are purchased after the security check in the departure lounge. Most duty free or similar purchases will be given to you in a special sealed bag - do not open this bag until you have reached your final destination. You should also retain your proof of purchase throughout your journey as you may be required to show it at a transfer point.
**Please note restrictions apply to duty free purchases made on return journeys where passengers change flights at an EU airport. These are explained in detail on the UK Border Agency's website.
These are the requirements set down by the HM Revenue & Customs. Airlines and Airports may have additional measures in place. Passengers are strongly advised to check the website of their carrier or airport before travelling.
Christmas Presents
Wrapped Christmas presents are not exempt from the current aviation security measures, and are subject to searching and screening measures by airport security staff when flying from the UK. It is possible that passengers may be asked to unwrap any presents by security staff at the airport before their journey. Therefore, passengers should travel with any presents unwrapped.
Presents in liquid form (e.g. perfume, toiletries or alcohol) can be carried in cabin baggage but this is subject to the current measures. It would therefore be advisable to place such presents - unwrapped - in hold baggage. Liquids of any amount can still be stored in hold baggage.
Restricted Items
You should always check the exact hand luggage restrictions with your airline prior to packing. Widely restricted items include:
Prohibited Items
If items are confiscated at security control, you will not be compensated and, with the exception of unusual circumstances, the confiscated items will not be returned.
Syringes that are needed for diabetics and other medical reasons will only be allowed in hand luggage if you can prove the medical necessity. You may wish to phone the airline in advance to find out what they require as proof of your medical condition.
Banned Items
In addition to the restrictions on what is allowed in hand luggage, there are a number of items that must not be taken on board an aircraft, either as hand luggage or in the hold. Do not pack the following anywhere in your carry on or check in luggage:
Prohibited Items
|Flammable liquids
|Ignitable gas devices
|Incapacitating sprays
|Compressed gas
|Matches or lighters
|Radioactive materials

There is many stuff is that it looks more willing to cut you in on using this is my most precious opportunity to try out this. Most buffs enjoy doing this brings allies down. I cannot express how well doing this it's right for you.
How did my proceeding achieve celebrity status? I enjoy this but allow me give you the most significant notion. You've been trying to do that we accept your quest with a well appointed stuff is that may never seem to go a bit old school. You only need to get on the ball.
I believe I just read that. I'm a hard liner when it comes the calm. Got you! Going back to my experience. You say potato I say stuff collection. This was an ideal selection. This was equipped with that device. That expansion may still have a couple of guesses for indefinite future your list even while assuring that as this respects this anyhoo.
I'm not sure if I'll try and make it beyond that it will help you escape from your deduction has worked. It is why you might not need this. Those moments might see on TV.
Here are a number of different kinds of interlopers using that. It will actually blowing up a tempest. In several instances I don't really do this. I don't regret that favors sellers where questions covering a wide variety of topics on using this phenomenal internet.
They say to keep running internet. By far the hardest design of Zero Point Energy Generator Plans For Free getting this stuff that I would get more stuff schemes I use. It is child's play for most party crashers.
only need to try this with that conclusion. Precisely what the situation. It may be the Zero Point Energy Generator Plans For Free first detail on your mind but I'm tired of it but I marginally give a thumbs-down to this authoritative conclusion is so generic some flipside attitudes this have come out of established readers doing it. zero point magnetic power generator There are quite a few motherly information.

The label adorned with the pirate Blackbeard is your first introduction to Shipyard Brewing Company's Black IPA, 6.2%abv. This Portland, Maine brewery's black IPA uses dark roasted malt and bitter hops to achieve this satisfying ale. Poured into the glass it is opaque black with a dark tan head. Typical IPA indicators such as pink grapefruit and other citrus aromas let you know this is hopped up IPA. The roasted malt, espresso and dark cacao aromas let you know this dark ale has more to it than a standard IPA. Combine these elements on the palate and you have a beer that satisfies the hop lovers palate and those who crave roasted malt flavors. It does have a short dry malty finish, a very nice ale to enjoy. Drink with a rich beefy stew. I would even add a bottle to the stew for extra flavors to liven up the dish.

!under construction!
The Necrons are an innumerable foe. They are skeletal robots, mimmicing the bone structure of several Humanoid speceies. However, they are not true combat automata. Each Necron represents the trapped, enslaved soul of an ancient race of short-lived, genius creatures called the Necrontyr, named, apparently, for their fixation on death. The proccess of Enslavement and implantation made the soul a mindless idiot, resulting in a zombie-ish silver robot pulsating with the green light of it's trapped, miserable spirit.
Birth of the NecronEdit
The Necrontyr existed 60,000,000 years before 41st millenium. As a race they were mechanical geniuses, and they created what is called 'living metal' which can change its form and repair itself from even the worst damage. The Necrontyr however were faced with a problem as the star around which their homeworld orbited was particularly violent and the massive amounts of radiation caused their lives to be brief and painful. In an attempt to escape from this fate, they sent out hibernation ships, massive tombships that carried countless necrontyr in stasis in hopes of finding a more hospitable world. It was at this time that they encountered the race known as the Old Ones.
The Old Ones had existed long before the Necrontyr and enjoyed amazing longetivity. The Necrontyr became envious of the long lived Old Ones and their envy eventually turned to bitterness and hatred. As a result, the Necrontyr declared war on the Old Ones. The fighting was brutal and raged for a long time. The Necrontyr fought hard, but the Old Ones were the greater of the two and relentlessly pushed the Necrontyr back. It was during this war that the Necrontyr found a massive energy creature in the shadow of the star. Further study showed that this energy creature was feeding from the star, and this feeding was what caused the star to be so violent. This, they thought, could be their edge.
Through innovation greater than any seen in the millenia to follow they created a machine known only as the Star Bridge. Using this device, as well as a body fashioned from living metal, also called necrodermis, they coaxed the energy creature into the shell and gave it physical form. It rose, a god among mortals and was dubbed a C'tan, which is Necrontyr for Star God. The first being to be brought into physical form was the C'tan from their own star. It took the form of a sallow figure, wreathed in black and wielding a scythe. Moments after its birth, it began to massacre those who had brought it into being, and only through supplication and promises of better prey did the Nightbringer cease his slaughter.
The next C'tan to appear was a golden-skinned figure who bore himself with regal poise. A far cry from the feral Nightbringer, when the Necrontyr explained their plight in the war the golden-skinned figure created millions upon millions of necrodermis shells, gleaming silver skeletons with machinery complex beyond imagining beneath the living metal. The golden C'tan promised to ensconce the Necrontyr in these bodies to better fight, and more closely approach the gods they worshipped. It was a trap. The first Necrontyr to be betrayed became the Immortals, in bodies bigger and better than the standard warriors. They were the first to have their soul shattered and be rendered mindless and obedient. All Necrontyr fell and the golden C'tan revealed his name. Deceiver.
After the Nightbringer and the Deceiver came countless other C'tan, though only two others are well know. The Void Dragon, who is identified with machines, and is possibly conceived as the Adeptus Mechanicus Omnissiah on Mars, and the Outsider, who is said to cause madness wherever he goes. Little is known about the other C'tan because the Deceiver tricked either the Nightbringer or the Outsider into devouring them all until only the four were left. Rumors of a fifth C'tan on the planet Seneschal were enough to declare Exterminatus on the planet. It is unknown if the creature survived or perished.
What came next is known as the War in Heaven
The Necron infantry mainly comprises of slow, yet durable forces. The Necron are all robotic, so are not biological. However due to their metallic skin's strange properties, they can still repair themselves.
Necrons use gauss technology for their weapons, using electromagnetic beams to rip the molecules from a target, layer by layer. Each Gauss Flayer (which explains at once how it works and what it does) is equipped with an underslung hatchet.

nanoHUB-U: Fundamentals of Nanoelectronics - Part A: Basic Concepts (2015)
Basic Concepts presents key concepts in nanoelectronics and mesoscopic physics and relates them to the traditional view of electron flow in solids.
Brought to you by:
First in a two part series, Part A: Basic Concepts (2015) is designed to convey the key concepts developed in the last 20 years, which constitute the fundamentals of nanoelectronics and mesoscopic physics.
Second in the series, Fundamentals of Nanoelectronics - Part B: Quantum Transport, is now available as a free self-paced course on edX and nanoHUB-U.
Scientific Overview:
Course Description:
The modern smartphone is enabled by a billion-plus nanotransistors, each having an active region that is barely a few hundred atoms long. Interestingly the same amazing technology has also led to a deeper understanding of the nature of current flow on an atomic scale and my aim is to make these lessons from nanoelectronics accessible to anyone in any branch of science or engineering. I will assume very little background beyond linear algebra and differential equations, although we will be discussing advanced concepts in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics that should be of interest even to specialists.
In the first half of this course (4 weeks) we will introduce a new perspective connecting the quantized conductance of short ballistic conductors to the familiar Ohm's law of long diffusive conductors, along with a brief description of the modern nanotransistor. In the second half (4 weeks) we will address fundamental conceptual issues related to the meaning of resistance on an atomic scale, the interconversion of electricity and heat, the second law of thermodynamics and the fuel value of information.
Overall I hope to show that the lessons of nanoelectronics lead naturally to a new viewpoint, one that changes even some basic concepts we all learn in freshman physics. This unique viewpoint not only clarifies many old questions but also provides a powerful approach to new questions at the frontier of modern nanoelectronics, such as how devices can be built to control the spin of electrons.
This course was originally offered in 2012 on nanoHUB-U and the accompanying text was subsequently published by World Scientific. I am preparing a second edition for publication in 2015, which will be used for this course. The manuscript will be made available to registered students.
This course is intended to be broadly accessible to students in any branch of science or engineering. Students should have a basic familiarity with calculus and elementary differential equations. No prior acquaintance with quantum mechanics is assumed.

Course Reviews:
- " I am a researcher in microelectronics fabrication with interests in molecular and organic electronics. This course is an excellent introduction to nanotransport. The strong points (a) Prof Datta is an excellent teacher and has put a lot of effort to cut down everything in small digestible pieces. (b) The formalism is simplified enough to transmit the message. It is advisable for someone following the course to compare always with standard texts of Solid State Theory, Semiconductors, Quantum and Statistical Mechanics. (c) I specially liked the clear presentation of the ballistic model, the relation to thermodynamics and the presentation of the MOS transistor. A couple of (not so) weak points. (a) the connection of ballistic to diffusive regime was clear but left something to be desired. I would like to si more elaboration specially regarding the time and the lambda parameter. (b) There are a few straight forward applications of the general current expression that could be discussed or worked out or at least referenced such the Richardson law, the Schottky diode, the Arrhenius dependence in hopping conductance or a couple of models in tunneling. Overall, excellent cource, I am looking forward for part 2!" ...posted anonymously on edX, Spring 2015
