Farmers will complain when onion prices fall drastically: Pawar
Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar has once again said that the rise in onion prices is just temporary.
New Delhi: Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar has once again said that the rise in onion prices is just temporary and that he is in fact fearing a drastic fall in onion prices in the coming days when new supplies arrive. "It will take another two to three weeks when a big quantity of onion will arrive in the market. New onion arrivals from Karnataka and Maharashtra have started," Pawar said.
In fact, he said he fears that farmers will start complaining if there is an excessive supply in the market within a couple of months. "I fear that after a few weeks there will be a major drop in onion prices and we will get complaints on the dropping onion prices," Pawar said.
Pawar said the Centre will also release over Rs 900 crore to Maharashtra's onion farmers for crop damage. Meanwhile, retail prices in most cities continue to hover around the Rs 100-mark.
Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit will also meet both Pawar and Food Minister KV Thomas to discuss the crisis. Pressing the emergency button the Delhi government is sending a team to Nashik to purchase onions.

Using the Intersect Featurecomments (3) April 23rd, 2009 in blogs
In SketchUp you can interact different model shapes and find their "intersections". The feature is called "Intersect" and comes in handy for furniture design. A popular example of its use, is the making of a cabriole leg where you interact a shape with a copy of that shape rotated 90 degrees. It involves erasing quite a bit of waste, but underneath the waste is a clean cabriole leg.
Basically, the Intersect command takes faces you've selected and creates edges at their intersections. Sounds simple but sometimes it does not produce expected results. Below I'll show a case where Intersect doesn't seem to work as you would expect.
In my last blog entry I showed the process used to create a breadboard for a table top. A reader asked why my method did not use Intersect to create the mortise locations in the breadboard piece. Perhaps my explanation below will answer that question.
In the arrangement below, both the Top and the Breadboard are components. I made a copy of the Breadboard blank and moved it to the right. In this way, I could watch what happens to the Breadboard as I performed Intersections.
Step 1: The Breadboard blank is precisely connected to the table Top. I executed an Intersection on the arrangement below and, although the tenons protrude through the edge of the Breadboard, there was no change . Here's the procedure used:
1. Right-click on the Breadboard and choose Edit Component from the pop-up menu
2. With Select Tool, draw a select box (left-to-right) around all of the Breadboard to select all faces and edges. An alternate is to "triple-click".
3. Right-click on the Breadboard and choose Intersect with Model
You can see in the copied Breadboard to the right that there was no effect of the Intersection, that is no lines show up on the face of the Breadboard.
Step 2: With the Move/Copy Tool, move the Breadboard component less than 1/4-in. along the red axis to create a gap at the joint with the table Top. Then perform the same Intersect steps as done previously. Notice that this procedure creates intersecting lines on the breadboard face. The two lines were made by the intersection of the tongue on the table Top which is 1/4-in. long. Unfortunately, the lines do not show the location of the deep mortises.
Step 3: Increase the gap at the joint by moving the Breadboard another 1/4-in. or so on red axis. Perform the same Intersect operation. Notice the resulting intersecting lines for the three longer tenons. This is a helpful intersection and could be used effectively in lieu of the X-ray process showed last week.
If you aren't getting the expected results in executing "Intersect" check the relative position of the components. A slight movement away from flush and co-planer may improve results.

Before making components out of the top or the BB, simply draw the tenons on the top and copy them and the shoulder onto the BB after deleting the BB face. No flipping, no intersecting - you're done!

Just days after he led Baylor to a memorable bowl victory of the University of Washington, Heisman winner Robert Griffin III appears to be on the verge of leaving Baylor on a high note. As ESPN NFL analyst Chris Mortensen tweeted on Sunday morning, the dynamic signal-caller will announce he intention to leave school a year early and enter the upcoming NFL Draft.
While Griffin has yet to confirm his draft intentions, a source close to Mortensen said he'll declare before the January 15th deadline. Griffin's father also told ESPN.com Big 12 blogger David Ubben that his son is definitely departing for the NFL.
"I met with my son (Friday) and his schedule is pretty much he will attend the Sugar Bowl here in New Orleans (where the Griffins live), then next weekend he will meet with five agents and select the right agent to represent him and plan a good pre-draft process," Griffin II told Ubben. "After that he will sit down with three of his coaches at Baylor on Wednesday or Thursday (Jan. 11 or 12) and make it official."
If Griffin does leave Baylor, he'll be leaving behind an incredible legacy that culminated with the school's first Heisman Trophy. Most draft analysts have Griffin going off the board early in the first round, and besides Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck, who will be the top pick in the draft, Griffin could be the second quarterback taken.

Cramer Quick Take: Hewlett-Packard Is Back
"You thought they were going to miss big and they didn't," Cramer said. He also noted there were a lot of short-sellers in the name who expected some bad numbers because of Dell's
He sees a turnaround under way at HP, but he also thinks now is not the time to get into the stock. "I think you've got to wait for Hewlett to come down," after the big jump in share prices, he advised.
Borchardt thought the numbers looked a little "dodgy," but clearly investors are liking the stock and showing they believe in CEO Meg Whitman. Cramer said the venerable tech company is "no longer playing defense, they can now play offense." But in order to be an investment, the company needs worldwide growth and it simply does not have it, he concluded.
Cramer's charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS, does not own HP.

Police have solved only 2 of 18 homicides since MarchUPDATED 8:38 PM EDT May 31, 2013
Cincinnati Police Department records show that the agency has solved only two of the latest 18 murders that have occurred in the city since early March.Video Transcript
SOLVING MURDERS... ISN'T MAKING THE GRADE RIGHT NOW. COMPARED TO EARLIER IN THE YEAR... WE'VE SEEN A DEFINITE DROP- OFF... IN THE NUMBER OF INVESTIGATIONS ENDING IN ARRESTS. WLWT NEWS 5'S JOHN LONDON.... IS LIVE WITH A LOOK AT WHAT INVESTIGATORS ARE SAYING ABOUT IT. THEY SAY INVESTIGATIONS AREN'T ON AUTO PILOT... IT TAKES PAINSTAKING WORK THAT SOMETIMES PRODUCES THE NECESSARY EVIDENCE... AND SOMETIMES DOES NOT... She doesn't like to linger in this lot... ("Just a memory so nobody won't forget.") Amie Thompson would rather focus on the weather-battered memorials to her murdered brother. Brian Thompson, who was shot almost a year ago in his car right outside his home along Storrs Street in Lower Price Hill. ("This is actually the spot where he got killed. His house is over here. He was pullin' up from the store and he pulled up here and that's where it happened.") Someone had ripped off a dice game in the alley where we walked, retaliation followed, two people were shot ... That's when her 27 year-old brother unwittingly arrived to a chaotic scene. (voice of Amie Thompson) ("...and they needed a ride out of here, so I guess he didn't move fast enough...") (Amie Thompson - Sister of Murder Victim) ("...and they just said screw him, shot him. They didn't even give him a chance to try to get out or explain or anything.") His death remains one of Cincinnati's unsolved killings. Last year, 6 out of every 10 homicides in the city were cleared by an arrest. So far this year, the clearance rate is 3 out of every 10. (Lt. Col. Dave Bailey - Office of Criminal and Special Investigations) ("If they're not solved, that doesn't mean they're not going to be solved here in the near future. So, there are some things in the pipeline.") Lieutenant Colonel Bailey, moments after a review of the violent crime stats. (Lt. Col. Bailey) ("Lot of cases we know that there were people right there that saw this happen.") Amie says there were dozens of people in the street at the time her brother was shot dead. At mid-afternoon today, it was teeming with activity. (Amie Thompson) ("You know, like the dice game, they should have never been there playing dice...") She says somebody in the neighborhood should have reported them. The makeshift RIP memorials that pockmark the city symbolize the recent spike in shootings and killings... Even though overall crime is lower... (voice of Lt. Col. Bailey) ("The guys over there are working as hard as ever to, you know, identify whose responsible for these things.") THEY MADE ANOTHER BLOCK- BY-BLOCK REVIEW THIS MORNING OF SOME OF THE HIGH-VOLUME CRIME AREAS... EVEN AT 31%, THE CLEARANCE RATE HERE EXCEEDS THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. REPORTING LIVE, JOHN LONDON, WLWT NEWS FIVE. IN THE PAST THREE WEEKS.... THERE HAS BEEN A DEFINITE INCREASE IN GUN VIOLENCE IN THE CITY ... AT LEAST TWO-DOZEN SHOOTINGS... AND SIX HOMICIDES.

A large consumer products client was committed to increasing spending on Marketing and Advertising as a percent of sales in the current fiscal year. A key concern for the client was that the additional spend would underscore the organization's need for control and efficiency in direct marketing expense (DME). While sourcing and procurement of direct materials was a core competency and mature function for this enterprise, procurement was not a key capability for most of the indirect spend (e.g., DME). Archstone Consulting conducted a review of the client's marketing procurement capabilities to identify areas for improved performance and cost savings.
Global food products company.
Implement the procurement business processes and tools for the Marketing and Packaging organizations. This included improving management controls over procurement activities and realizing improvement opportunities.
Archstone's approach included a comprehensive assessment of the client's Marketing spend and procurement processes and capabilities. This was followed by a focused Strategic Sourcing effort, which included:
After a thorough analysis of the client's procurement processes, organization, governance and capabilities, an aggressive sourcing program was launched. The result of this program was a significant, hard dollar contribution to the client's financial results. By the end of the program, identified savings totaled $3.1 Million, between 4% and 9% of the total Marketing spend.

I'm so glad your puppy is doing better. I know all too well about neighbors throwing food in the yard. My landlord sometimes throws chicken bones - COOKED - in the backyard and my dog has gotten more than her fair share of stomache ailments from it.
Once I had taken her to the park and she found something some moron decided to throw on the ground and not in the trash and that night started a month long chicken and rice dinner w/ a lovely side of constant diarrhea and at least 3 trips to the vet with x-rays. And medication. The first x-ray they couldn't even see much cause her belly was so disdended! By the end of the month they took another one and the compared the 2 and the doctor took it to another vet for a 2nd opinion and he said, "Is that the same dog?"!!!
Now I'm quite the paranoid "mother" and she doesn't get to sniff too long anymore!! My goodness, she'll eat anything. Goodball!
I agree, tell the neighbors to stop the food tossing crap and if they don't, send some poops over to their side!! Fair is fair!!
Some days are curlier than others.

S&P 500 Targets First 10% Correction in Two Years
For chart watchers, the stock market may not yet be in official correction territory.
But technicians say it is now a matter of when, and not if.
As of late Monday morning, the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index has lost 6.3% since closing at a record high of 1669.16 on May 21, closing in on the 10% drop to the 1502 level that, in market lingo, would make it an official correction.
That would mark the first10% correction in nearly two years. The last one continued on until stocks nearly hit the 20% decline that qualifies for an official bear market.
The last correction was the 19% decline from the April 2011 high of 1363.61 to the October 2011 low of 1099.23. In 2012, the selloffs starting in April and September 2012 bottomed at 9.9% and 7.7%, respectively, below the previous highs.
But last week's slide below the key 1600 pivot level, which had acted as strong resistance in April and then strong support earlier this month, suggests reaching the 10% threshold is now likely, technicians say. The June 6 intraday low was 1598.23.
The initial bounce off that low had peaked at 1651.81 on June 18, or well below the May 21 high of 1669.16. So falling below support around 1600 triggered what technicians see as a bearish pattern of lower peaks and lower troughs.
"[S&P 500] 1600 was our first support level," said Louise Yamada, managing director of Louise Yamada Technical Research Advisors. "Now that you have a lower high and a lower low, you have a short-term downtrend in place."
In addition, the S&P 500 sliced through a rising trendline off the November low that had stopped previous pullbacks in February, April and on June 6.
"This is early evidence the that trend is changing," said Robert Sluymer, managing director of U.S. technical research at RBC Capital Markets. "The … uptrend that began in November is reversing, with a new downtrend developing."
Ms. Yamada said the potential unwinding of the Federal Reserve's asset-purchase program this year "should be a plus" for stocks long-term, if accompanied by a stronger economy. But for the short term, since 1600 was important support on the way down, it should now act as strong resistance on the way back up.
The next potential minor support area is 1550, technicians say, which coincides roughly with the lows from late March through April.
But Ms. Yamada but said even further weakness is justified in the current technical environment. "You could come all the way back to the 200-day moving average and remain within the framework of the consolidation we've been anticipating," she said.
The 200-day moving average, which many technicians use as a guide to the longer-term trend, extends Friday to just above 1500. Hitting that level would represent a 10% decline from the May 21 high, enough to mark an official correction. The S&P 500 was recently down 1.6% at 1567.
RBC's Sluymer has a similar target. He said the breaking of the shorter-term uptrend line off the November low implies that the S&P 500 could fall back to test its long-term uptrend line off the March 2009 low. And that line puts "long-term trend support" at 1475 to 1500.

Just about everyone prefers being home for Christmas - or in the case of the Marietta High boys' basketball team, even two days after the December holiday.
At Sutton Gymnasium at 7:30 p.m. tonight, MHS is scheduled to host Belpre in a non-conference Washington County hoops matchup.
The J.D. Secrest-coached Tigers own a 3-4 overall record and would like nothing better than to even their mark going into the new year 2013. So, far, they are 3-1 at home with victories over Frontier, Coshocton and Rosecrans.

JORDAN HOLLAND The Marietta Times
Marietta High's Reid Chwalek, right, looks to drive on Rosecrans' Adrick Cronin (24) during East Central Ohio League boys' basketball action at Sutton Gym on Dec. 21. The Tigers defeated the Bishops, 64-46, and are now 3-1 at home. MHS is scheduled to host Belpre tonight.
"I like playing at home," said Secrest after his orange and black cagers posted its first win of the campaign against the Cougars by a score of 55-33 on Dec. 11.
Marietta's lone setback at Sutton Gym was a 44-33 decision to Dover in an East Central Ohio League game on Dec. 14.
In its last outing on the hardwood on Dec. 21, MHS was at the top of its game, defeating the Rosecran Bishops 64-46 for its first league triumph of the season. Braden Riley and Adam McKnight paced the Tigers with 16 and 15 points, respectively. Billy Weekly and Cameron Benson chipped in with nine markers apiece.
"We got ourselves a lead early and was able to maintain it," said Secrest after the Rosecrans game. "These guys don't have the killer instinct, knockout punch yet. We're still working on just competing and scoring points. It was nice to get 60 points on the board.
"A lot of kids stepped up and it kind of makes my job harder to find the nine kids to rotate in."
That, of course, is a nice problem to have.
Sparked by Cameron Benson's nine points, the Tiger bench produced 15 points against the Bishops.
Versus Belpre, Marietta is expected to start Jordan Satterfield, Riley, Weekly, McKnight, and sophomore Corey Hill, who began the season with the JV squad.
Belpre is also coming off a win last Friday night, defeating visiting Southern 60-50 in a Tri-Valley Conference-Hocking battle at the "Eagles nest."
The Jordan Thornhill-coached Golden Eagles own a 3-3 overall mark and are 3-2 in the TVC.
Against the Tornadoes, Belpre enjoyed a balanced attack with 5-10 Austin Forshey leading the way with 18 points.
Six-four Bryce Pittenger added 14, 6-3 Nick Therriault had 10, and 6-foot Dakota Hoffman netted nine.
After playing Marietta High, Belpre is slated to face River Valley at Marietta College at 9:15 p.m. Friday in the Ohio River Classic.
The Tigers, on the other hand, won't be back in action until they face Roger Kirkpatrick-led Frontier in New Matamoras at 7:30 p.m., Jan. 5, 2013.
"We're pretty pleased with the steps that these guys have made," Secrest said. "We know it's going to be a learning process. We play hard, and we took care of business and got some confidence (vs. Rosecrans).
"When January roles around, we're going to hit the meat grinder, and you have to have confidence in your abilities when you go into Warren, New Philly and places like that."

S.O.S. is giving the College a generous gift totaling $250,000 which will be used to create a new "Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists Community Scholars Scholarship." The S.O.S. Scholarship will be part of the College's Community Scholars program which awards up to $1,000 in scholarship money to incoming high school graduates, adult learners, and former Onondaga students who did not complete their degree but are within 15 credits of completion.
In addition, the gift from S.O.S. supports the SRC Arena and Events Center which serves students and community members by providing a variety of sports, cultural, and community events.
"Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists has been a highly respected leader in the orthopedics and sports medicine community for years, and we are very proud to have their support as we continue to advance the mission of the College," says John Zacharek, vice president for development at Onondaga Community College. "Their support will allow us to create new scholarship opportunities for students who need it most, as well as to continue to enhance the overall student experience through the myriad of athletic and cultural events on campus at the SRC Arena and Events Center."
"We're very excited to support student success at Onondaga Community College," says Michael Humphrey, CEO of Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists. "Our practice is dedicated to helping people live active, healthy lives, but we also understand the power of education and enrichment. We hope to enhance as many lives as possible through our support."
For over 35 years, Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists' surgeons have been providing care to the families in our community. S.O.S. provides integrated state-of-the-art care from diagnosis and treatment to rehabilitation. Services include: on-site MRI, bone scans, after-hours care, and a one-day surgery center. It has offices in Baldwinsville, Camillus, Cicero, Dewitt, Liverpool, Fayetteville, and Syracuse. S.O.S. surgeons service St. Joseph's Hospital Health Center and Crouse Hospital. S.O.S. is also a major supporter of On Point for College, a local nonprofit organization opening doors to higher education for the inner city youth. On August 23, S.O.S. hosted the Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists Golf for Grads Tournament, raising thousands of dollars to benefit On Point.
"The S.O.S. team is very proud of our reputation for excellence in orthopedics and sports medicine, and we stand ready to assist athletes of all ages throughout Central New York," said Humphrey. "Whether it be supporting students in the classroom, or supporting athletes who have had an injury, our commitment to the well-being of the Central New York community is paramount."

Since I didn't do much blogging last week, I didn't write about my middle son, Kyle, who runs for Ohio Wesleyan. Last Thrusday evening, we get a call from Kyle saying that his right foot is swollen, he can't walk on it and he wasn't able to finish their interval workout on the track that afternoon. At this point, he is very upset and I'm trying to do everything I could do to keep him calm! The next morning, he went for x-rays and sure enough, he broke the third metatarsal on the top of his foot. At this point, he is wearing a boot and is on crutches :( He will be out for 4-6 weeks. No running but he can swim, bike and lift. The outdoor track season, I guess is out of the question, but I'm sure he will heal and come back stronger than before. He is just upset because he ran one outdoor meet and did well in the 800 with a time of 1:56.7. He was looking for big things this spring but will have to wait until next season. He seems to be handling everything pretty well, although I think it is hard for him to see all his friends running. He's a Lemke, he is tough and he will be just fine! I believe, disappointments make you stronger!! Love you, Kyle!
Today, I woke up at 7am and got my lift done before I went out to run. I went down to the track, to run with the LHS track team. Ran 4.5 miles with my friend, Haley Young and finished up by myself to get in 10 miles. Felt tired and stiff but I need to keep the miles up for MMT 100 training!! Of course, that wasn't enough, so crazy me went to the Y and swam 1 mile. I hear the trails calling my name for tomorrow :)

Collin County business group sets its sites on education as it enters its second year
When Sanjiv Yajnik tries to recruit a potential employee to his Captial Ones' Plano campus, he always expects to hear one question: "What are the schools like?"
So it's no surprise that a group of local business leaders focused on improving Collin County would take a keen interest in education. In addition to Yanjik's duties as president of Capital One's financial services division, he is also chairman of the Collin County Business Alliance. That group of local CEOs and other executives celebrated its one-year anniversary this week. At a celebration commemorating the milestone, the group indicated that Collin County's schools will be a key focus for year two.
The alliance was modeled after civic groups in Dallas that helped guide the city through the Great Depression. Sanjiv said that the organization's first year has been devoted largely to figuring out how and where the group can leverage its power and resources to help the community. Its ranks have grown to about 50 local executives — including leaders from Capital One, Rent-a-Center, United Healthcare and Ericcson.
Another focus in year one was helping Collin County secure enough water to sustain its booming population, both in the short-term and the long-term. Yanjik said the organization did that by meeting with and offering help to the leadership of the North Texas Municipal Water District. The alliance's leadership also met with Agriculture Commissioner Todd Staples and Gov. Rick Perry about water and wrote letters to lawmakers in Austin and Washington in support of legislation that helps Collin County plan for its water future.
That kind of message can carry extra weight when it comes from the business community, state Sen. Florence Shapiro (R-Plano) said.
"They are trying to be a part of the community," she said. "The business voice is an essential part of that patchwork."
Yanjik said work still needs to be done in regards to water, but the alliance has gotten its message across. The group is now looking at ways it can help with its next focus, local schools.
With education, the group may be able to help in other ways, Yanjik said. Businesses can offer students internship opportunities and training, he said. They can also provide funding or resources for academies or school programs, he said.
"We can be a tremendous force for change," Yanjik said.

Teriparatide and denosumab, alone or combined, in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis: the DATA study randomised trial.
Department of Medicine, Endocrine Unit, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Osteoporosis medications increase bone-mineral density (BMD) and lower but do not eliminate fracture risk. The combining of anabolic agents with bisphosphonates has not improved efficacy. We compared combined teriparatide and denosumab with both agents alone.
From September, 2009, to January, 2011, we enrolled postmenopausal women with osteoporosis into this randomised, controlled trial. Patients were assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive 20 μg teriparatide daily, 60 mg denosumab every 6 months, or both. BMD was measured at 0, 3, 6, and 12 months. Women who completed at least one study visit after baseline were assessed in a modified intention-to-treat analysis. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00926380.
94 (94%) of 100 eligible women completed at least one study visit after baseline. At 12 months, posterior-anterior lumbar spine BMD increased more in the combination group (9·1%, [SD 3·9]) than in the teriparatide (6·2% [4·6], p=0·0139) or denosumab (5·5% [3·3], p=0·0005) groups. Femoral-neck BMD also increased more in the combination group (4·2% [3·0]) than in the teriparatide (0·8% [4·1], p=0·0007) and denosumab (2·1% [3·8], p=0·0238) groups, as did total-hip BMD (combination, 4·9% [2·9]; teriparatide, 0·7% [2·7], p<0·0001; denosumab 2·5% [2·6], p=0·0011).
Combined teriparatide and denosumab increased BMD more than either agent alone and more than has been reported with approved therapies. Combination treatment might, therefore, be useful to treat patients at high risk of fracture.

For several months I've been waking up very hot at night and after I remove the covers wake up again later very cold and this goes on all night long and I am not getting much sleep. I went to a gynecologis a few months back and she did blood work including FSH and TSH and everything was good. What could this be? Please, I am desperate for any information. Thanks.READ MORE
I am sorry this is happening...that must be so hard to deal with especially when you are trying to get a good night's sleep. So what did your doctor recommend to do...anything?
Here is an article we have on Health Central about how to manage hot flashes.
I would check for any external factors...is your thermostat on too hight, eating any spicy foods? Are you taking any medications such as antidepressants or anti-anxiety meds...some of these have side effects of hot flashes. This article about other causes than menopause for hot flashes says that conditions like hyperthyroidism can cause hot flashes.
I think the main thing is to find a way to get some sleep. Maybe you can ask your doctor for suggestions of sleep aids so that you are not constantly waking up in the middle of the night.
I hope this helps. Good luck to you.
My doctor didn't recommend anything. It isn't my thermostat because since this started I've had to make it very cold in the room (even my husband complains) and I've made sure to avoid all the things that can cause spikes in temperature like alcohol and spicy food. I don't take any medications. My FSH and TSH were tested and were in the normal range. (TSH deals with hyperthyroidism and the dr. said it was in the good range). Any ideas what else this could be?? Thanks.READ MORE
January 30, 2010
Hi there
I am looking and researching for you on this.
Here is a forum where a doctor gives his answer about other possible causes. It seems stress can cause this or alcohol use. In the literature they talk about "neurological flushing." I have Multiple Sclerosis and I have hot flashes due to my neurological condition but this symptom in itself is no indication of a neurological disorder. That is the thing...you can worry yourself to death over this but a single symptom...it is hard to pinpoint the cause.
I think for peace of mind you need to get a second opinion from a doctor on this. Please let us know if you do find the cause for your hot flashes.
Thanks for reaching out here. But you really need a doctor's opinion and expertise to figure this out.READ MORE

The magazine Fast Company is a leading business media brand that presents unique editorial focus on the latest innovations in technology, ethical economics, company leadership and design and the cutting-edge entrepreneurs who create future business. Every year the magazine produces its Annual World's 50 Most Innovative Companies issue, where it highlights new business practices and showcases the individuals who are creating the future and reinventing business practices by going beyond traditional boundaries.
For this year's issue, one of the subjects they focused on was Cesar Conde, President of Univision Networks. Univision is the largest Spanish-language TV network in the United States. It is available on cable and satellite with local stations in over 50 markets and has the largest audience of Spanish-speaking viewers according to Nielsen ratings (Nielsen is the parent company of PDN/PhotoServe). Conde, a Miami native of Cuban and Peruvian descent and only 35 years old, has made rapid strides at Univision. His successful corporate rebranding for the network has driven the media giant to go beyond news and entertainment by taking an active lead in civic leadership for the Hispanic community
The idea for this shoot was to capture Conde's vibrant personality against the colorful and exciting backdrop of Miami's historic Little Havana neighborhood. Fast Company's new Photo Director Leslie dela Vega brought in a local photographer whom she knew could capture the excitement of Miami's Cuban flair.
Dela Vega tapped Bob Croslin, a Florida-based commercial and editorial photographer, whom she had worked with at former publications, Time and Essence. Croslin has photographed extravagant hip-hop culture for magazines such as Rides, celebrity athletes for ESPN the Magazine and even chimpanzees for Smithsonian Magazine. His work goes beyond the popular hype, showing the spark of personality in every set of eyes and the grace and humility beneath the swagger of even the most. flamboyant of his subjects.
For the feature on Conde, Croslin had two different scenarios in mind. He scouted the famous Cuban restaurant Versailles in the historic Little Havana district and the intersection near the domino tables at Maximo Gomez Park. The idea for the Versailles location was to photograph Conde at their outdoor counter, always known for the crush of people ordering their renowned Cuban coffee. But to Croslin's great surprise, Conde does not even drink coffee. His photo assistants would scoot a cup of coffee towards him and he would scoot it away. With all his lighting gear and grip equipment set up in this much trafficked area, Croslin also faced the daunting challenge of crowd control. He tried to funnel customers through the counter to show the hustle and bustle and have Conde in the middle of it all.
His second location near Maximo Gomez Park required a permit with the city, but he was not allowed to block traffic. "We planned the shoot during rush hour to capture some of the chaos of Little Havana," says Croslin but once again what he did not plan for was the number of tour buses pulling up and dropping off tourists in front of the park. It was Disney World in the middle of his shoot. "The challenge was to try and capture a unique moment while retaining a produced look. I was able to accomplish this by having both of my assistants mobile with Profoto 600b packs and heads," explains Croslin.
As luck would have it, the image that Croslin captured was an in-between, unplanned moment while he and Conde were walking through the congested street. Croslin was warning him about the oncoming traffic, just as a car with jeering passengers turned dangerously close to Conde. He had to quickly jump up to the curb to get out of the way, and Croslin got that shot. It was total serendipity a real Miami urban moment. The magazine loved the photo and used it to show Univision's suave president actin being very cool and quick thinking in the midst of chaos.
Croslin's image appeared in the March issue of Fast Company. It captured everything the magazine is about: leaders of industry who can handle tough situations and who go beyond the traditional boundaries to create new and exciting business ventures that involve the community, along with new technology and solutions.
Croslin's work has appeared in ESPN the Magazine, Time, XXL, Vibe and other urban publications, and the photography industry has taken notice. In January 2011, PDN (Photo District News) awarded him First Place in their Best Shot Sports contest for a picture he made of Tennessee Titan Chris Johnson for Men's Fitness.
When Croslin is not photographing celebrities, sports stars and titans of industry, he spends time in the Tampa Bay area with his wife and daughter and cycles more than 150 miles a week. You can see more of the many faces of Bob Croslin's editorial and advertising work at www.bobcroslin.com

Don't single out smokers
Published: Sunday, June 19, 2011 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 17, 2011 at 4:34 p.m.
Recent letters have highlighted our beach trash problem, and anyone who visits a beach or pier at the end of a day witnesses the debris left behind: plastic bottles, plastic bags, cigarette butts, cans, fishing line, etc., etc. Hardly a visit goes by when I haven't seen a seabird with fishing line hanging from it, knowing the life-threatening consequences.
All trash impacts the environment and wildlife, but the knee-jerk reaction by some local governments and some members of the public is to single out what has become the easy and somehow acceptable target — smokers, usually followed by smoking bans. Smokers and non-smokers alike may fail to dispose of their trash responsibly, so let's all be mindful of our actions, without discriminating against just one of the guilty parties.

It was another big game...as they all are this time of the year. But this was one the Jets needed for their confidence before heading back on the road for another two games. They battled hard and found a way to take a clean two points from a hot Toronto Maple Leafs team, 2-1, tonight at the MTS Centre.
"Well, it wasn't a Picasso, but it was a win," said Coach Noel at the post-game press conference. "We managed to get the win and we're happy about that. Our power play struggled a little bit and I thought we played the game tired, after coming off the road trip. We did some good things and it was a good win for us."
"We had to get back going again, especially at home. A loss would not have been good for us right now."
Phil Kessel opened the scoring for the Leafs, picking up his 30th goal from a nice feed from Joffrey Lupul just over the 11-minute mark of the first period.
Chris Thorburn answered back for the Jets just three minutes later as he released a nice back-hander that made it through Jonas Gustavsson to tie the game.
Bryan Little picked up the game-winner midway through the second period on a Blake Wheeler rebound.
Ondrej Pavelec stopped 17 of 18 shots thrown his way while Gustavsson turned aside 27 of 29.
The Jets head back on the road for a pair of games starting in Washington against the Capitals Thursday night. Puck drops at 6:00pm on TSN Jets.
Nik Antropov took the game's first penalty at 6:43 for cross-checking sending the Leafs to the first power play of the night. It wasn't until the penalty expired that Pavelec really started to be challenged, but, he looked focused out there as he put up the wall to shut them out.
Minutes later however at 11:06, Phil Kessel picked up his 30th goal of the season on a nice up-ice feed from Joffrey Lupul. Kessel, on a partial breakaway, made his way to the front of the net with only Toby Enstrom in his way. He wound up and took a shot that beat Pavelec clean- stick-side. 1-0 Leafs.
Chris Thorburn answered back getting the Jets on the board at 14:16 of the period. Zach Bogosian started the rush from behind the Jets net and raced through the neutral zone. He saw Thorburn charging up the left wing and found the lane. Thorburn, with a tight check right beside him, managed to get a backhand shot that slipped right under the arm of Jonas Gustavsson.
After 20 minutes, the Jets and Leafs were tied 1-1, and the Jets on top of the shot clock 9-6.
Leaf's goal scorer, Kessel, was the first Leaf to take a penalty in the game at the two minute mark. The Jets power play unit mustered up a few scoring chances but could not solve the penalty kill of this Leafs squad and the game remained tied.
Bryan Little gave the Jets their first lead of the game at 9:47 of the frame. Wheeler drove hard to the net and took a shot on Gustavsson who made the save but spit out a nice rebound. Little was right behind the play to finish things off and make it 2-1.
That's how the period would end, with the Jets leading 2-1 and 16-13 in shots on goal.
Two minutes into the third period, Johnny Oduya and Joey Crabb dropped the gloves to kick off the period with momentum. Oduya ended up on top in a quick duel with the Leaf before exiting stage left for five minutes.
The Jets had a few quality chances in the early goings of the final period but were not able to convert on any of them. Gustavsson did a great job of holding pucks in like a sponge, not allowing many juicy rebounds.
All they had to do was hold on...and that they did. The Jets held on to earn themselves a 2-1 victory over the Leafs. After 60 minutes of play, the shots were 29-18 in favour of the Jets.

Battling Blog Posts: White House vs. House GOP Leader
If Republicans seize control of the House next week, the White House is not off to a very bipartisan start to the new Washington reality.
White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer jumped on a New York Times story portraying business lobbyists in a scramble for access to the GOP lawmakers who will go overnight from backbenchers to powerful committee chairmen. That is, of course, what lobbyists are paid to do, but Mr. Pfeiffer sees a broader pattern at work.
"This should come as no surprise given the track record of Congressional Republicans over the past two years. Rather than listen to the American people, Congressional Republicans have repeatedly shown their loyalty to these special interests by retreating behind closed doors to strategize with their lobbyists on the most critical issues for the American people," Mr. Pfeiffer wrote on the White House blog.
The continuing war of words should be no surprise on the verge of a potentially historic election, but it is something to watch. In an interview with the new-look National Journal, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell declared, "The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president" – not exactly an olive branch.
The president's stump speech has been amped up as well. For months, he has described Democrats struggling to push the national car out of the ditch Republicans drove it into, while Republicans kibitz on the sideline while sipping Slurpees. He's recently added that they're also kicking dirt on the sweating Democrats.
Mr. Pfeiffer joined in Wednesday, describing Republicans working hand-in-glove with lobbyists to battle the president on health care and Wall Street re-regulation and to draft their agenda, the Pledge to America.
"Washington lobbyists are lining up cash to help Republicans in Congress repeal Wall Street reform, repeal health care reform and go back to the same policies that led to this mess," he wrote.
House Republican leader John Boehner's office was quickly up with a response on its blog, suggesting Mr. Pfeiffer may have been drinking a "little too much Caribou coffee." The post said Mr. Pfeiffer set up a "'straw man' for the president to rail against in hopes of bringing down those who dare to object to his job-killing, big spending policies."
And it called the Pfeiffer post hypocritical, citing another New York Times article: "Mr. Pfeiffer, after all, is a member of the same White House staff that holds regular meetings with lobbyists at Caribou Coffee across the street from the Oval Office so that presidential staffers can avoid recording their meetings on public White House visitors logs."

Spiritual Diary: September 2
Inspirational Thought for each Day.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Practicing yoga is half the battle, even if you don't feel enthusiastic in the beginning. If you go on practicing you will come to feel that tremendous longing for God which is necessary if you are to find Him.
WHy don't we make the effort? WHence do all the beautiful things in creation continually emerge? Whence come the intelligence of great souls,but from the storehouse of the Infinite Spirit. And if the wonders you see about you are not enough to induce you to seel Him, why should He reveal himself to you?
He has given you the capacity for Love that you may yearn for him above all else. DOn't misuse your love and reason. Don't misuse your concentration and intelligence on false goals.
"Self Realization Magazine"
Jai guru!
Good Morning Great Souls...
During these days of Easter and Passover - both Holy Days
(Holidays) are reminders of our release from the bondage
of Maya.
We wish you a joyous Easter & Passover filled with divine
blessings from God, Guru, and the Masters. In this time of
renewal may there be a deepening in your attunement with
them and a grace that flows through your life touching all
souls you come in contact with.
Paramhana Yogananda's delivered this message in 1937...
"Resurrect Your Soul in God"
Christ is risen from beneath the sepulcher of your
indifference if you would behold Him in the light of your
He is risen from the imprisoning walls of flesh if
you, a sleeping son of God, would come out of your bodily
prison into the freedom of Spirit.
Crucify your ignorance and hide-bound evil customs,
and rise from beneath the tomb of narrowness into the
freedom of Cosmic Brotherhood.
Resurrect your soul from the tomb of reincarnations.
Christ-fragrance is ascending from the living graves
of material human consciousness, and descending on the
devotion of true devotees everywhere. Wash the altar of your
heart with tears of repentance, so that Christ Consciousness,
love of all races, all creatures, may resurrect within you.
When your body is crucified with disease, ascend
into the consciousness of health.
When your mind is crucified with trials and temptations,
awaken into the sphere of self-control.
When you are entombed in sorrow, resurrect yourself
into happiness.
When you are buried beneath restlessness, resurrect
your mind into continued deep silence.
Your God-love has long been crucified by your inner
indifference remaining hidden within you; awaken it, and
resurrect it into the consciousness of the Absolute Bliss
by daily deep concentration.
Life brings many surprises and new adventures - even
resurrections within an incarnation. Tina and I are
starting one now... Divine Mother cradles us in her
arms and takes us for a ride...
"Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because
when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown
of life that God has promised to those who love him."
"The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face
shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his
face toward you and give you peace."
Have a joyous and blessed Easter,
Troy Barnhart & Dr. Tina Brents-Barnhart

Blessings to you, this Spring 2007...
As Yogananda once said,
"Do you ever think seriously of salvaging your treasure of happiness which is sunk beneath the sea of your tumultuous life?
Can you make your half-dead rose plant of life bloom again?
We are usually born rich with smiles, youth, strength, beauty, health, mystic aspirations, and swelling, thrilling hopes.
As we live and grow, we begin to lose these riches, and the roses in us begin to fade.
Why is this? Are we to grow warm with riches and then suddenly be frozen by the chill of poverty?
The rose blooms only to die. Does our happiness come only in order to vanish?
No, the rose usually dies on the bed of beauty, yet some roses, worm-eaten, encounter a premature, ugly death. We want to bloom with good actions, fragrant with happiness, and to rest forever with the memories of those who appreciate us. We do not have to die devoured by poverty, sickness, or sorrow. To guard our rose plant, we must attend to it properly with much digging, watering, feeding, and guarding it from pests and chill. The rose plant of our happiness can grow only on the abundant fertile soil of our peace. It can never grow on hard, stony, unfeeling soil of human mentality. We have to constantly dig into peace with the spade of our good actions. We have to keep our happiness plant well watered with our spirit of love and service. We can only be happy by making others happy.
The real food for the happiness tree can be supplied only through meditation and actual contact with God in daily life. Without our contact with the Infinite source, from which all our human faculties and inspirations spring, we can never grow perfectly and completely. The worst pests which attack our plant of happiness are lack of the desire to progress, self-satisfaction, and skepticism. The chill of inertia, or lack of definite, constant effort to know the Truth, is the greatest ill from which our happiness plant suffers.
We are planning to have another Sunday Satsang in March 2007.
We will announce the date when details firm up...
Please check back often to mark your calendars,
as we hope to see you there...

Hi Adi, Yes Autobiography of a Yogi planted seeds within myself as well. I had recieved Be Here Now in the 70's , it found its way to me in an odd way, but the thing is I didn't get it, not at that time. Then one day I saw this book cover with Yogananda on it and was drawn to him. Read the book, then I started taking lessons from the Self Realization Fellowship for about a year. Later found Power of Now after 2000, then found Daily OM. So it is the many seeds that were planted now bearing fruit and I'm so blessed to realize the truth of Self.
Throughout those years I was doing yoga, purely for the physical benefits, but eventually it became a spiritual practice. I began reading anything I could get my hands on of the spiritual aspects of yoga. What great treasures that India has given to the world, Yogananda certainly being one of them !
Wow! Reading this book in the mid-seventies along with others like Be Here Now, practicing Hatha Yoga with Lilias Folan on PBS, etc, planted seeds of divinity in my soul that now are coming to fruition.
Reading Autobiography of a Yogi was like taking journey into a totally new world. Then in the early eighties I was introduced to the light and love of Pentacost another step closer. So much more so much less. Then two years ago finding this community another step.
Yogananda I bow to your wisdom and holiness. May your Whispers Of Eternity continue to sift through my busy mind and karmic clouds of egos illusions bringing us all closer to our hearts peaceful purpose.

Product Description
Raise the alarm! You can hear the wailing of a siren in the distance as an ambulance heads for an emergency! Not an easy job for the paramedics. Where is the house from where the emergency call was made? There are plenty of obstacles in the streets which hamper the progress of the ambulance. Everybody is on call so that the patient can be delivered as quickly as possible to the hospital.
In order to succeed in your mission you need good memory skills and a bit of luck with the die. Your ambulance is called out on an emergency. But before you can help the patient you have to find your way to the house. Then, the second part of your mission will be driving your ambulance back to the hospital as quickly as possible. In each round only one player can deliver one of his patients to the hospital. The aim of the game is to be the first to bring three patients to the hospital.
