Holiday Overview
Holiday Overview
- Spectacular views of Shivling and the Bhagirathi peaks
- Atmospheric Gangotri and its pilgrimage temples
- Hike from Bhujbasa to Gaumukh and the source of the Ganges
- Rishikesh and the lamp-floating Aarti Ceremony
This exciting new two-week holiday through a rugged and visually arresting part of the Great Indian Himalaya punches well above its weight in terms of the variety of quintessential India experiences it packs into a short timeframe. Including sightseeing in Delhi, a classic Indian Railway journey, the floating lamp (Aarti) ceremony in Rishikesh, trekking with Hindu pilgrims and Sadhus to the holy River Ganges, and climbing up to the meadows of Tapovan below an array of impressive peaks dominated by the beautiful spire of Shivling, this holiday is loaded with moments and insights of culture, spirituality and great beauty. Beginning with a tour of Delhi's famous sights such as the Red Fort and the Qutab Minor, we then take the train north to Haridwar where the mountains of the Himalaya rise from the great Indian plain. We stop at Rishikesh to watch the daily Aarti ceremony where thousands of oil lamps are floated on the wide river Ganges, before following this sacred river first by road and then on foot, to its legendary source at Gaumukh amid the tumbling ice of a huge glacier. We continue trekking beyond the glaciers to an unexpected and tranquil meadow surrounded by jagged peaks and spires of rock and ice. Just moments before reaching this meadow we have our first view of the Shivling, a breathtaking peak often referred to as the Matterhorn of India. Combining a short trek and a range of memorable cultural experiences, this is Indian Himalaya trekking at its best!
Is this holiday for you?
This is a short and relatively straightforward trekking holiday in India. Our pace on the approach to Gaumukh and Tapovan is governed by our need to acclimatise properly, rather than by the actual distance which we are prepared to walk each day. The distances covered each day are short, averaging about 8 or 9 kilometres and on most days we will be walking for no more than 5 hours. As we are following a popular route of pilgrimage as far as Gaumukh, the paths are mostly good. The approach to Tapovan will involve more rugged terrain including glacial moraine. It should be noted that trekking at altitudes above 3000 metres makes greater demands on the body than walking at low elevations, and is of itself challenging even for fit hikers. An integral part of the holiday is getting there and we will have two full days and two half days of driving on small roads through the Indian foothills as well as two rail journeys to get to and from this remote area. The grade of the trip reflects the short duration of the trekking but you must ensure you are physically prepared and should be comfortable with walking for between 3 and 5 hours each day for several days continuously.

Holiday Itinerary
Meet at the group hotel in Delhi. Transfers from Delhi Airport are provided.

Take the train to Haridwar then drive to Rishikesh on the banks of the Ganges. Evening aarti ceremony.
We have an early morning transfer to the railway station to catch the express train to Haridwar. The train journey takes approximately 4 hours. Arriving at Haridwar at lunchtime, we then have a short drive to Rishikesh on the banks of the Ganges, where we check in at our hotel. This is a very special place. The most holy of Indian rivers, the Ganges flows through the town and it is at Rishikesh where its nature changes from tumbling waters to a more sedate and mighty flow as it leaves the Himalaya and heads across the Indian Plain. The town has many temples, shrines and ashrams and is a major place of pilgrimage and starting point for pilgrimages to Badrinath and Gangotri. Rishikesh became a well-known name outside of India when the Beatles came here in 1968 to visit their guru's ashram. This afternoon we can visit some of the temples of this holy town and in the evening we will witness the aarti ceremony. Shortly after sunset, the 'puja' is performed in all of the temples lining the river at the same time, with a cacophony of musical instruments and voices. Afterwards, offerings of lamps and flowers are made to the Ganges and it is a moving sight to watch hundreds of miniature lamps float along the river.

Drive through Himalayan foothills to the pilgrimage town of Uttarkashi in the Bhagirathi Valley.
Today, we continue our drive up into the Indian Himalaya. Our route follows one of the major tributaries of the Ganges, the Bhagirathi River, twisting and turning through steep-sided and heavily forested valleys. After a day of spectacular scenery, including a stop off for lunch at a wayside restaurant, we arrive at the important pilgrimage town of Uttarkashi (1350m), where we check in at a simple lodge. Depending on the road conditions, the drive could take up to 6 hours. With a population of around 20,000, Uttarkashi is the regional headquarters. There is a mountaineering institute here, a number of ashrams, a river-side 'ghat' and a temple dedicated to Shiva in the centre of town.
Accommodation Lodge
Meals bld
Drive to sacred Gangotri (3050m). An afternoon of sightseeing amongst the town's temples.
We complete our road journey this morning, driving for around 4 hours, deeper into the steep-sided Bhagirathi Valley. The scenery rapidly becomes more dramatic and we start to see impressive rock spires and snow-capped peaks rising up above the valley sides. We reach the pilgrimage site of Gangotri (3050m) in the late morning and, after checking in at our lodge and having lunch, we spend the afternoon visiting the various temples which draw Hindu pilgrims from across the continent. The town is centred around the Temple of the Goddess Ganga, built by the Gorkha General, Amar Sing Thapa in the early 18th century. Overnight in Gangotri.
Accommodation Lodge
Meals bld
Trek through oak and pine forest to Chirbasa (3600m). Options for exploration in the afternoon.
Above 3000 metres now and conscious of the need to acclimatise, we have just a short trek today. After passing a check-post for the Gangotri Conservation Project, our walk begins with a relatively easy ascent through forests of oak and pine, following the Pilgrim's Trail on a well-defined path which climbs gradually beside the Bhagirathi River, with impressive cliffs on our left side. We will reach our camp at Chirbasa (3600m), on a level site beside the river, in time for a hot lunch. There are options for walks in the afternoon or we can use the time to rest and catch up on our diaries. From our camp, there are great views of surrounding peaks, such as Manda, Bhrigu Parbat and the very impressive Bhagirathis.

Time 4 - 5 hrs trekking
Trek up above the tree line to Bhujbasa (3800m). Afternoon excursion above camp towards Gaumukh. Overnight at Bhujbasa.
Another short day today. Accompanied by hardy pilgrims, we continue our hike in this impressive valley, climbing through pine forest to the alpine plateau of Bhujbasa (3800m). Arriving in camp after just a couple of hours walking, we will take an early lunch. Then, in the early afternoon, we will have the option of an excursion above camp towards Gaumukh. A short distance above camp we will get our first views of Shivling. Fit and motivated clients can aontinue the hike as far as Gaumukh (the 'cow's mouth') the legendary source of the Ganges, where you can dip your feet in the sacred water of the river. Returning to Bhujbasa, we have time to look around. There is a basic lodge here, an ashram and usually lots of colourful sadhus or holy men to check out. We have great views of the peaks, Meru and Shivling today. Overnight at Bhujbasa.

Time 3 - 4 hrs trekking
Trek up to the extensive meadow at Tapovan (4500m) beneath the spectacular peak of Shivling.

We descend the lateral moraine and follow a cairned trail that leads to the east side of the glacier. We have views of the snow capped peaks of Bhagirathi, Shivling, Meru, and Kharchkund in close proximity. Our overnight camping place is at Tapovan (4500m), a large meadow surrounded by the icy peaks of the Bhagirathi range and with a truly spectacular view of Shivling.

Arriving in Uttarkashi on the late afternoon, we check in at our simple lodge accommodation. The name Uttarkashi means 'Varanasi of the north' and the town has similar ghats and temples to Varanasi itself. The town's most important temple is dedicated to Shiva and known as Vishwanath Mandir, where we can see a huge copper trident.

What's included
- A professional English-speaking local leader
- Delhi Airport transfers on group arrival and departure days
- All land transport involved in the itinerary
- All accommodation as described in the trip dossier
- All meals throughout the trip
- Full trekking service including food and all camping equipment (excluding personal equipment)

The food served during the trek is a mixture of local and Western, mostly purchased locally and cooked for us by highly trained trek cooks. The emphasis is on providing a high-carbohydrate and largely vegetarian diet, which we have found to be easily digestible at high altitude. In Delhi (and in the towns we visit en route to Gangotri) we take our meals in the group hotels or in nearby restaurants. All meals while on trek and while staying in hotels are included in the holiday price.

A Typical Day
Shortly after first light one of the cook crew will wake you with a cup of tea or coffee brought to your tent. You will have plenty of time to get up and pack your kitbag before sitting down to a hot breakfast, during which camp will be struck and the loads are sorted. Setting off in the pleasant cool of the morning, we will generally reach our lunch stop by mid-day. The cook crew, having overtaken us on the trail, will already have the lunch preparations well under way. Lunch usually takes an hour or even two and usually this is a light cooked meal. The pack-animals usually catch up with the group during lunch and are well on their way to camp which we hope to establish well before dusk. It is usual for the afternoon's walk to be shorter than the morning session. On arrival at camp, the crew will quickly put the tents up and a hot drink will soon follow. Dinner is a 3-course meal served in the mess tent. This is a great time of day for reliving the events of the trek so far and for general socialising. After dark, the temperature quickly falls and everyone will soon be tucked up in their sleeping bags.
Group Leader & Support Staff
Spending Money
Approximately £150 (or equivalent in Euros, US dollars etc.) changed into local currency, should be allowed for miscellaneous expenses, including porter and trek crew tips and soft drinks, etc. There are several opportunities to buy souvenirs on this trip. It is not necessary to purchase local currency (Indian Rupees) before you travel. Sterling, US dollars and Euros are readily exchanged in Delhi. Since you will be changing the majority of your spending money into local currency on the day of arrival, we recommend taking this in cash. Credit and debit cards can be used to purchase many goods in Delhi and are particularly useful for more expensive souvenirs. It is possible to withdraw cash (rupees only) from cash machines in Delhi using credit and debit cards.
Guidance on Tipping
Tipping is an accepted and expected part of Indian culture, although you should only tip for services which are well done. The total amount that you can expect to pay in tips for your local guide, trek crew and drivers is approximately £60 (in rupee equivalent). It is usually best to do this as a group rather than individually with the group deciding collectively on the level of tipping. At the end of a trek many people also like to donate various items of their equipment to the porters, ponymen and trek staff who work so hard to make the trip a success. Boots, gloves, hats, scarves and even socks (clean of course) are always warmly received. Technical clothing and equipment such as head-torches and trekking poles are highly prized by the local guides and camp crews. If you wish to pass on any of your equipment or clothing at the end of the trek, your local leader will organise a fair distribution among the crew.
Baggage Allowance
Your baggage on trek will be carried by pack animals. The packed weight of your trek bag whilst trekking should be no more than 15 kgs. It is possible to leave clothes or other items not required on trek at the group hotel.
KE Trek Bag
All KE clients will receive a FREE KE trek bag. These have been specially made to stand up to the rigours of adventure travel. Your KE bag will be posted to you when your trip is guaranteed to run or on receipt of your booking if the trip is already guaranteed. If you have travelled with us before and already have a KE trek bag you can select an alternative free gift in the booking process.
This holiday involves going to high altitude. During the course of your trip you will reach altitudes in excess of 3500 metres. This is not something that you should worry about; the human body is quite capable of adapting to a very wide range of altitudes, but it is important that we follow some simple rules in order to acclimatise successfully. Before coming on this holiday you should read the advice on trekking at high altitude. You can also talk to one of our trekking experts if you have any concerns about altitude. On this trip we carry a portable altitude chamber (PAC-bag) and/or bottled oxygen for use in emergencies.
Equipment List
The following checklist should help you with your packing. As a general rule, you should always try to keep the weight of your equipment to a minimum.

Group Size and Holiday Status
For each holiday there is a minimum number of participants required to enable it to go ahead. Once the minimum number is reached, the trip status will change from 'Available' to 'Guaranteed to run'. You can check the trip status for each departure in 'Dates and Prices' table. Other than in exceptional circumstances, we will not cancel a trip once it has achieved this guaranteed to run status and so you are free to proceed with your international flight booking and other travel arrangements.
Passport & Visas
A passport with 6 months remaining validity at the end of your stay is generally required. The information that we provide is for UK passport holders. Please check the relevant embassy or consulate for other nationalities. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the correct travel documents and visas for your holiday. Visa requirements and charges are subject to change without notice. If you are travelling outside the EU you should have at least 2 blank pages in your passport for each country that you visit.
Visa India
Health & Vaccinations
You should contact your doctor or travel clinic to check whether you require any specific vaccinations or other preventive measures. You should be up to date with routine courses and boosters as recommended in the UK e.g. diphtheria-tetanus-polio and measles-mumps-rubella, along with hepatitis A and typhoid. Malarial prophylaxis is not usually required for trips in the mountains, however if you are visiting rural and remote low lying areas then they might be necessary. On holidays to more remote areas you should also have a dentist check up. A good online resource is Travel Health Pro.
The currency of India is the Indian Rupee.
Electricity Supply & Plug
We recommend you check if you require an adaptor for your electrical items at:
Preparing For Your Trip
It makes a lot of sense to spend some time before coming on a trekking holiday getting some additional exercise. The fitter you are, after all, the more enjoyable you will find the experience. For this trip you need to be comfortable with walking for 4 – 5 hours each day with the occasional longer day of 6 or 7 hours.. We would suggest that you adopt a weekly exercise regime leading up to your trip. Regular hiking in hill country is the best training but jogging, squash and swimming are also good for developing cardio vascular fitness and stamina. Before departure, we suggest that you try to fit in a number of long walks in hilly country.
Know before you go
As a reputable tour operator, KE supports the British Foreign & Commonwealth Offices 'Know before you go' campaign to enable British citizens to prepare for their journeys overseas, and we recommend that all KE travellers take a look at the FCO Travel Advice for their chosen destination on the official FCO website: www.fco.gov.uk. North Americans can also check out the U.S. Department of State website: www.travel.state.gov for essential travel advice and tips.
KE treat the safety and security of all clients as the most important aspect of any trip we organise. We would not run any trip that we did not consider reasonably safe. Should the FCO advise against travel for any reason, we will contact everyone booked to travel to discuss the situation. We receive regular updates direct from the FCO and are in constant touch with our contacts on the ground. If you have any questions about government travel advice, please call our office.
The best time to visit this part of the Indian Himalaya is either before or after the monsoon (which occurs from mid-June to late September). The weather conditions should be broadly similar in the pre and post monsoon seasons, with daytime maximum temperatures around 25°C to 30°C at the start of the trek, becoming progressively cooler as we gain height. Night-time temperatures will generally be above freezing throughout the trip except possibly for the 2 nights we spend at our highest camp at Tapovan, where the night time temperatures can dip as low as minus 5°C. In this part of the world, most of the rainfall occurs during the monsoon months but this is a mountainous area and short-lived storms cannot be ruled out at any time of the year.

- Seahawks' Richard Sherman doesn't 'hate' 49ers
- Kawakami: Boldin only seems like he's been here forever

- Aldon Smith's off-field troubles behind him, Jim Harbaugh says
- What 49ers' Harbaugh would give up to be playing Sunday
- No denying 49ers-Seahawks rivalry
SANTA CLARA — If the third time is a charm for 49ers starting quarterback Colin Kaepernick in Seattle, he knows why he'll reverse his fortunes and win Sunday's NFC Championship there.
"We do have to protect the football," Kaepernick said. "It's something we haven't done well up there."
Kaepernick had three passes intercepted and lost a fumble on a second-quarter sack when the 49ers lost at Seattle 29-3 on Sept. 15.
He only had one pass intercepted in his 2012 debut at CenturyLink Field, but the 49ers got walloped 42-13 in that penultimate game of the regular season.
Kaepernick rebounded from that 2012 loss there to lead the 49ers to Super Bowl XLVII. So far in his playoff encore, he's sparked the 49ers to road wins at Green Bay and Carolina.
"For me it's experience and a comfort level with this offense," Kaepernick said of the differences since last season.
Wideout Anquan Boldin said of his quarterback: "This year he has an understanding of what (the playoffs) are like. Anytime you're in the playoffs a first time, it can be tough because it's amped up. He's a lot more comfortable. He's just confident in his ability and doesn't waver."
Facing the Seahawks' mighty defense is an experience Kaepernick hasn't forgotten.
"They have a good defense, so there are times they make plays," Kaepernick said. "The more times we can eliminate that and make plays ourselves, the better off we'll be."
The 49ers will take an eight-game win streak into Seattle, and coach Jim Harbaugh is firmly confident in his quarterback's ability to extend that streak, citing Kaepernick's poise, leadership and work ethic.
"The big games, the big challenge, the big task -- he has that special ability that the great ones have to elevate their game in those situations," Harbaugh said.

4.5-9 Perjury -- § 53a-156
Revised to May 20, 2011
The defendant is charged [in count ___] with perjury. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of perjury if, in any official proceeding, (he/she) intentionally, (under oath / in an unsworn foreign declaration), (makes a false statement / swears, affirms or testifies falsely), to a material statement which (he/she) does not believe to be true.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Testimony at an
official proceeding
The first element is that the testimony was given at an official proceeding (under oath / in an unsworn foreign declaration)1. An "official proceeding" is any proceeding held or that may be held before any legislative, judicial, administrative or other agency or official authorized to take evidence under oath, including any referee, hearing examiner, commissioner or notary or other person taking evidence in connection with any proceeding. The defendant must have, in the presence of an officer authorized to administer an oath, unequivocally taken upon (himself/herself) the obligation of an oath.
Element 2 - Intentionally made
false statement
The second element is that the defendant intentionally (made a false statement / swore, affirmed, or testified falsely) knowing or believing the statement to be false. The testimony must have been intentionally and deliberately given falsely and not through inadvertence or by mistake; that is, it was the defendant's specific intent to deceive, and the defendant made the statements knowing or believing that they were false.
<See Intent: Specific, Instruction 2.3-1, and Knowledge, Instruction 2.3-3.>
The state must prove that the defendant made a statement that was untrue in fact and that the defendant believed that it was false.2
The truth or falsity of the defendant's testimony cannot be proved solely on the basis of the uncorroborated testimony of a single witness, even if you find that witness's testimony credible. Rather, it requires corroborated proof through independent and material facts and circumstances supplementing the testimony of the single witness. The corroborative testimony must be of such a character that, when taken in connection with all the other testimony, the falsity of the testimony is established beyond a reasonable doubt.
Element 3 - Material to the
The third element is that the statement made by the defendant was a statement material to the proceedings. The test of materiality is whether the false testimony was capable of influencing or had the potential to influence the fact finder in deciding the issues.3
[Affirmative Defense4
The statute defining this offense also defines an affirmative defense, which the defendant has raised. <See Affirmative Defense, Instruction 2.9-1.>
The defendant claims that (he/she) was coerced into giving the false testimony. Coercion has two elements. <Insert the elements from Coercion, Instruction 6.12-1.>]
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) the defendant gave testimony at an official proceeding (under oath / in an unsworn foreign declaration), 2) the defendant intentionally gave false testimony, and 3) the statement was material to the proceedings.
[<If defendant has not raised the affirmative defense:> If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
perjury, then you shall find the defendant guilty. On the other hand, if you
unanimously find that the state has failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt
any of the elements, you shall then find the defendant not guilty.]
[<If defendant has raised the affirmative defense:> If you unanimously find that the state has failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt any of the elements of the crime of perjury, you shall then find the defendant not guilty and not consider the defendant's affirmative defense.
If you unanimously find that the state has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements, then you shall consider the defendant's affirmative defense. If you unanimously find that the defendant has proved (his/her) defense by a preponderance of the evidence, then you shall find the defendant not guilty. If you unanimously find that the defendant has not proved (his/her) affirmative defense by a preponderance of the evidence, then you shall find the defendant guilty.]
1 The Uniform Unsworn Foreign Declarations Act was adopted by P.A. No. 10-33, effective October 1, 2010. It applies to declarations made by person while physically located outside of the United States. See General Statutes §§ 1-65aa through 1-65hh for the requirements that must be met to qualify as an unsworn foreign declaration.
2 It may be inferred from proof of the falsity of the statement, that the defendant knew the statement was false. State v. Kimber, 48 Conn. App. 234, 243, cert. denied, 245 Conn. 902 (1998); State v. Fantasia, 5 Conn. App. 552 (1985), cert. denied, 199 Conn. 806 (1986).
3 The materiality of the statement, as an element of perjury, is a question for the jury. United States v. Gaudin, 515 U.S. 506, 522-23, 115 S.Ct. 2310, 132 L.Ed.2d 444 (1995) (repudiating prior case law that held it was a pure question of law for the court); see also State v. Paige, 304 Conn. 426, 446 (2012).
4 The affirmative defense was added by P.A. No. 10-180, § 7, which became effective on June 8, 2010.
On the "one-witness-plus-corroboration" rule, see State v. Iassogna, 95 Conn. App. 780, 787-92 (2006); State v. Meehan, 260 Conn. 372, 386-88 (2002); State v. Sanchez, 204 Conn. 472 (1987). A conviction cannot rest solely "on the basis of [a witness's] in-court testimony corroborated by her out-of-court written statement." State v. Iassogna, supra, 95 Conn. App. 791. The corroborative evidence "must tend to show the perjury independently of the testimony which it is intended to corroborate." State v. Sanchez, supra, 204 Conn. 482.
A defendant may be convicted of multiple counts of perjury arising from testimony regarding the same general subject "when each false sworn statement requires its own proof of falsity involving facts unique to that particular statement." State v. Servello, 80 Conn. App. 313, 326 (2003), cert. denied, 267 Conn. 914 (2004).
A statement that is literally true,
though unresponsive and misleading, is not punishable as perjury. Bronston
v. United States, 409 U.S. 352, 360, 93 S.Ct. 595, 34 L.Ed.2d 568 (1973) ("[t]he
burden is on the questioner to pin the witness down to the specific object of
the questioner's inquiry").

Knitter's Review
July 17, 2008
Paul Simon sang about diamonds on the soles of our shoes, and Helene Magnusson writes about diamonds on the insoles of our shoes.
Her book is called Icelandic Knitting: Using Rose Patterns. Originally published in Iceland and only recently available in English, the book explores the history and tradition of the knitted shoe insert. It's a concept only knitters would appreciate: taking great care to create a colorful piece of knitted fabric that nobody else will see.
Lela Nargi tells us more about what we can find inside Helene's book.

Unpublished Photos of Beatles' First U.S. Tour to be Auctioned
Published: Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 9:02 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 9:02 a.m.
LONDON | Unpublished early color photographs of The Beatles' first U.S. tour will be sold at a U.K. auction.
The photos were taken during the rock band's 1964 visit to the U.S., when color film was expensive and most images of the group were in black and white.
The collection of 65 slides contains many stage shots, including George Harrison with his legendary red Rickenbacker guitar and close-up portraits from a Las Vegas Sahara Hotel press conference and Las Vegas Convention Centre gig.
The images were taken by Dr. Robert Beck, who died in 2002 and left them in an archive of photographs and slides in his Hollywood home.
Omega Auctions said Sunday the images will be sold March 22 — exactly 50 years after The Beatles released their first album.

We've now reached the peak of the dry season in the Kruger National Park and there is no water left in any of the natural waterholes. This attracts a huge variety of game species to the last remaining water in the two rivers that run through the Jock concession; the Mitomeni and Biyamiti.
Large herds of elephant and buffalo are now a common sight and rhino are often seen. The Wild Dogs that denned on the concession have moved the den but still remain in our area. Regular sightings of the dogs with four small pups have been recorded.
With predators following the game movement to the rivers we don't need too look to far to find lion and leopard this time of year. The Jock pride of lions have been very active and vocal around the lodge area. Sadly it seems they've lost another cub and are now down to six very healthy looking one year olds.
There has been a few bush fires in our area but the new grass growth is already clearly visible after a bit of unseasonal light rain. The new grass attracts good numbers of grazers like zebra and wildebeest into the area.
This must be my favorite time of year the Kruger!

Do You Need to Drive Efficiency and Productivity throughout Your Organization's Business Processes?
Streamline processes for greater agility.
An integral part of any organization is efficient process. But few companies have the right process in place for their content, making it hard for users to work because they can't find what they need when they need it.
Agile organizations need to automate business processes quickly so individuals can be supported by those efficiency gains rather than thwarted by inflexible processes.
Standardizing and implementing business processes across the enterprise creates effectiveness, ensures consistency and leads to continuous improvement.
Alfresco makes it easy to define and automate the critical processes that run your business:
- Open and modern BPM platform allows flexibility for automating, customizing and rapidly adapting business processes
- Graphical tools make it easy for less technical users to design and adjust business processes, speeding application rollouts and business alignment
- Integrated process and document management capabilities enable processes that involve business-critical content to run smoothly and efficiently
- Human-centric workflows, shared tasks and content-sharing support collaborative processes
- Since documents and user tasks can be accessed via any standard web browser, from within Office applications and from mobile devices, processes don't stop at the boundaries of the enterprise
- Reusable process and forms libraries enable fast and simple rapid application assembly while ensuring enterprise best practices and standards are incorporated
- Support for on-premise and in the cloud options ensures flexibility of process deployment and execution
- Process reporting provides insight into process efficiency and performance
"Alfresco allows us to manage all our Web content in one centralized place, while still giving us the flexibility to customize content and sites based on our specific client contracts. Alfresco is easy to use and allows our marketing department to control the content and sites with minimal support for the Web creative team. This is a solution that can grow with us and one we can use for many years to come."
— Robert W .Sansom, Head of Online Creative, BT Conferencing
Alfresco In Action
Amsterdam Fire Brigade needed a more efficient and responsive fire service. With Alfresco, 200 mobile operatives can remotely access and update the fire department's fire prevention and risk management database where 500,000 documents are currently managed with Alfresco. Fire crews are now able to access profiles and tactical information on screens as they respond to incidents.
First Marblehead works with lenders and schools to help meet the growing demand for private student loans. The student loan department used Documentum and the document intake process was extremely manual and time consuming. Alfresco's open source approach and modern, flexible architecture allowed for easy integration and customization into their business processes, and the total solution and software costs with Alfresco were over 50% less than the total cost of Documentum.
SuperIQ wanted to deliver 'real-time' online control of superfunds to trustees and their financial representatives. With Alfresco, their repository contains around 150,000 documents relating to around 4,500 funds. Documents are stored as images with metadata to support fast search and retrieval. Around 2,000 registered users access documents, via an API to SuperIQs web-based application.
Wesley Institute is Australia's first Christian arts college and its previous learning management system was severely under utilized. The College had common documents such as study guide manuals, feedback forms and style guides to add across 42 units. Previously, these searches had taken a day and a half to render and now with Alfresco, it takes just 12 minutes.

Canada, 2012, 91 Minute Running Time
Additional Countries: QuebecLanguage: French English Sub-Titles
7pm Saturday, April 27th
An obsessed scholar attempts to withdraw from the world but finds personal ties drawing him back into the family he had left behind in this novelistic, beautifully modulated drama from acclaimed Québécois filmmaker Bernard Émond.
The film focuses on Pierre Leduc, a well-liked lecturer and Ph.D. candidate at a Quebec City university who can no longer stomach the office politics and daily distractions of academic life. Instead of teaching, he wants to devote his time to translating the works of the late Polish poet Edward Stachura, a kind of Sylvia Plath/Leonard Cohen/Rimbaud figure for Polish youth whose fame has never extended past his nation's borders. Pierre is someone for whom the current epoch, and even society in general, is an endless litany of complications. He readily admits that his life has been defined by an overpowering need to escape the world — but as he soon finds out, this is much tougher than he thinks. His ailing father suddenly wants him back in his life, and a chance encounter at a café with a mother and her child suddenly brings him into contact with the daughter whom he has never met.

More of same from CCM
The Connecticut Conference of Municipalities' latest list of legislative priorities, released Monday, is more of the same from past years. Constituents should be quick to forgive their elected officials for failing to peruse it in detail, or act on the proposals.
As usual, the CCM opposes anything resembling cuts in state aid, reasoning that such cuts inevitably inflate municipal costs. While true, this point is banal. Surely state lawmakers understand reduced revenue from one source requires the recipient to dig deeper into other sources.

Do not add this line to apache http.conf. It does not work.
AddModule mod_php5.c
Also, remember to edit the system variables, edit the PATH and add the path to the php directory and restart windows.
This section contains notes and hints specific to Apache 1.3.x installs of PHP on Microsoft Windows systems. There are also instructions and notes for Apache 2 on a separate page.
Please read the manual installation steps first!
There are two ways to set up PHP to work with Apache 1.3.x on Windows. One is to use the CGI binary (php.exe for PHP 4 and php-cgi.exe for PHP 5), the other is to use the Apache Module DLL. In either case you need to edit your httpd.conf to configure Apache to work with PHP, and then restart the server.
It is worth noting here that now the SAPI module has been made more stable under Windows, we recommend it's use above the CGI binary, since it is more transparent and secure.
Although there can be a few variations of configuring PHP under Apache, these are simple enough to be used by the newcomer. Please consult the Apache Documentation for further configuration directives.
After changing the configuration file, remember to restart the server, for example, NET STOP APACHE followed by NET START APACHE, if you run Apache as a Windows Service, or use your regular shortcuts.
Note: Remember that when adding path values in the Apache configuration files on Windows, all backslashes such as c:\directory\file.ext should be converted to forward slashes: c:/directory/file.ext. A trailing slash may also be necessary for directories.
You should add the following lines to your Apache httpd.conf file:
Example #1 PHP as an Apache 1.3.x module
This assumes PHP is installed to c:\php. Adjust the path if this is not the case.
For PHP 4:
# Add to the end of the LoadModule section # Don't forget to copy this file from the sapi directory! LoadModule php4_module "C:/php/php4apache.dll" # Add to the end of the AddModule section AddModule mod_php4.c
For PHP 5:
# Add to the end of the LoadModule section LoadModule php5_module "C:/php/php5apache.dll" # Add to the end of the AddModule section AddModule mod_php5.c
For both:
# Add this line inside the <IfModule mod_mime.c> conditional brace AddType application/x-httpd-php .php # For syntax highlighted .phps files, also add AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
If you unzipped the PHP package to C:\php\ as described in the Manual Installation Steps section, you need to insert these lines to your Apache configuration file to set up the CGI binary:
Example #2 PHP and Apache 1.3.x as CGI
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php # For PHP 4 Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe" # For PHP 5 Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php-cgi.exe" # specify the directory where php.ini is SetEnv PHPRC C:/php
A server deployed in CGI mode is open to several possible vulnerabilities. Please read our CGI security section to learn how to defend yourself from such attacks.
If you would like to present PHP source files syntax highlighted, there is no such convenient option as with the module version of PHP. If you chose to configure Apache to use PHP as a CGI binary, you will need to use the highlight_file() function. To do this simply create a PHP script file and add this code: <?php highlight_file('some_php_script.php'); ?>.
Do not add this line to apache http.conf. It does not work.
AddModule mod_php5.c
Also, remember to edit the system variables, edit the PATH and add the path to the php directory and restart windows.
Please note that the SetEnv PHPRC "directory/to/phpini/" only works when using PHP as CGI, but _not_ when you use the PHP Apache Module!
To Besta and 'j dot b..dot sk':
'Add Module mod_php4.c' or 'AddModule mod_php5.c' may or may not be necessary depending on your environment and version of Apache.
In my situation, this add module DID NOT work or it wasn't necessary. The LoadModule was enough to do the trick. I tried it with PHP4 on Apache 1.3.34 and Apache 2.0.
All in all, your notes have been helpful. Thanks.
DO NOT FORGET to add "index.php" into
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.html
so you get index.php processed;multiple values separate by space:
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
Entries to httpd.conf for PHP 5:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
must appear BEFORE
LoadModule php5_module "C:/php/php5apache.dll"
This should NOT be added:
AddModule mod_php5.c
It makes no sense since AddModule means activation of a module compiled staticly into the Apache. We ofcourse do not have that!
Note that if you place php in the c:\php5 director your ScriptAlias line should read
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php5/"
This may be obvious to regular Apache users, but I changed all sorts of things around before realizing this was the issue. I thought
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php-cgi.exe"
was a path and was changing it to "/php5/php-cgi.exe" which didn't work.

So Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez bit Italy's Giorgio Chiellini during a World Cup match on Tuesday.
What else is new?
Suarez, if you haven't followed his career, is one of the most combustible athletes in all of sports.
His chomp on Chiellini's shoulder set social media ablaze -- people are paying attention to soccer! -- and was the most outlandish World Cup act since France star Zinedine Zidane headbutted Italy's Marco Materazzi in 2006.
(What is it about Italy that brings the crazy out in its opponents?)
But it wasn't the first time Suarez has gone all Mike Tyson on an opponent. He has twice before attempted to extract flesh, including an English Premier League incident in April 2013 that resulted in a 10-game suspension.
As Evander Holyfield, the victim of Tyson's bite, tweeted of Suarez: "I guess any part of the body is up for eating."
Former Cal star Alex Morgan added: "So glad we don't have a biter in the women's game."
Suarez might be one of the five best players in the world, but he's equally adept at acting like a two year old on the pitch..

Update: Supplies are being deployed to local churches for distribution to those impacted by the disaster.
World Vision is partnering with Oklahoma churches to deliver relief supplies to families and children affected by sweeping wildfires.
World Vision is sending relief supplies to Noble and Luther, Oklahoma, to be distributed by church volunteers. Items include food, toiletries, and clothing.
"It is devastating. We've already seen dozens of homes destroyed, but with fires still raging and temperatures back over 100 again, many more homes are still at risk," says Phyllis Freeman, World Vision's domestic disaster director, based in north Texas. "Families and children are being told to evacuate and leave immediately."
Drought conditions continue to fuel Oklahoma wildfires that have burned 68,000 acres and destroyed more than 120 structures.
Among the worst hit was the town of Luther, about 25 miles from Oklahoma City, where 56 buildings were razed. Authorities are investigating if arson caused the blaze.
Firefighters, who have battled 18 wildfires in the state, received a brief respite on Sunday when a cool front passed through, lowering temperatures as much as 25 degrees, the National Weather Service reported. Hot, dry weather is expected to continue.
Evacuation centers remain open for families who have lost their homes or been unable to return.
Pray for children and families impacted by the wildfires. Pray that the fires would quickly cease and that churches and community leaders would come together to support their neighbors who have experienced loss.
Donate to help us respond to disasters in the United States. Your gift allows us to be prepared to respond to domestic disasters such as tornadoes, floods, storms, wildfires, and hurricanes.

AUSTIN (September 26, 2012)—Texas Comptroller Susan Combs, the state's chief accountant, called Wednesday for ballots in local bond elections to spell out the tax and debt ramifications before voters check yes or no.
A report that Combs released Wednesday centers on data showing local debt doubling in the past decade, and outpacing population growth and inflation.
It's an issue fiscal that conservatives and tea party groups have begun targeting with greater focus.
Combs said she's not making judgments on local projects, but said she believes voters aren't being provided with enough information before casting their ballot.
The report is titled "Your Money and Local Debt."
County officials typically answer criticism about bond packages as necessities to maintain infrastructure for more residents.
Combs is widely rumored to be mulling a run for lieutenant governor in 2014.

The heavy rain of summer have come to an end. The rivers and streams have started to dry up and we have begun opening up the river bed driving again on the Concession here in the Kruger National Park.
One of the female leopards we view the most often on the Concession, the "Tamboti Spruit" female, has not been seen for 2 months as we could not access her territory due to the high levels in the rivers. This past weekend we located her again with her 2 juvenile cubs. Everyone was thrilled to see that they were all still alive and well!

Jay Wild of Truckee outdistanced Hawaiian Kody Kerbox and Rob Rojas of San Clemente in a tight finish to win the first stop of the O'Neill Tahoe Cup High Elevation Stand-up Paddleboard Race Series on Donner Lake over the Memorial Day weekend.
The race took place in cold, blustery conditions, similar to last year's event. But that didn't prevent the field of 70 participants from competing in the 5-mile race, which was an out-and-back that started and ended at West End Beach.
After battling down the final stretch, Wild beat out Kerbox by just 2 seconds, posting a time of 48 minutes and 10 seconds to Kerbox's 48:12. Rojas came in at 48:21 to round out the top three. He was followed by Rand Carter of Tahoe Vista, who was fourth in 51:16, and Ronnie Ayers of Truckee, who was fifth in 51:30.
Ben Sarrazin of Nevada City finished sixth and was trailed by Jake Lamberth of Carnelian Bay, Seth Springer of Malibu, Austin Young of Incline Village and Derek Dial of Reno in 10th.
Jen Fuller of Nevada City was the top woman in 16th place overall in a time of 56:56.
The race series continues with two more stops on Lake Tahoe, with the Jam from the Dam on July 14 and the Tahoe Fall Classic on Sept. 16.
The O'Neill Tahoe Cup Race Series Award will be presented to the top men and women point champions in all three board classifications. The series winners will then be published in Standup Paddle Magazine and Standup Journal.

Aiken, SC--It's a top-25 matchup on the college basketball front this weekend when Augusta State hosts USC Aiken. But we're not talking about the men's game for a change. Instead, the ladies will get plenty of attention.
Here we are with a month to go and the two teams are separated by just a half game in the standings for the top spot in the Peach Belt Conference.
Nate Teymer has done a tremendous job in turning the Jags into a winner and are riding a seven-game winning streak.
On the other side, the Pacers are picking it up without Kayla Harris. This game will be decided on defense, not offense.
"I think both teams are exceptional defensive teams and kind of in different ways," said USC Aiken Head Coach Mike Brandt. "They mix it up a little bit more and their match up zone is very difficult and they slow you down a little bit. I think we really need to attack it and be aggressive, but I think it'll be interesting to see how they handle our pressure."
Both teams are giving up just 52 points a game so this could be a "first to 60, wins" type of game.
It's a 5:30 tip at Christenberry Fieldhouse Saturday with the men to follow.

STOCKTON – A 21-year-old man was getting into his vehicle near Humphreys College around 10 p.m. Monday when two men approached and told him to get out of his car, police reported.
The victim complied with their demand and one of the men grabbed his keys while the other attempted to hit him, according to a report. Instead, the victim struck back and the two men fled the area in the 6600 block of Inglewood Avenue in north Stockton.
Police consider this an attempted carjacking. They described one suspect as a black man between 21 and 22 years old, 5 feet 5 and 150 pounds wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans. The other suspect was described as a black man between 21 and 22 years old, 5 feet 7 and 180 pounds wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans.
