Hello Sir,
This is an excellent study & analysis of so called solution to India's economic slowdown. Along with Amul, i would say that another example of helping farmers is e-choppal initiative headed by ITC which is again very much local.

Hi...my comment is slightly on a tangent....dont you think one of the factors in Indian farmer suicides could be the huge farm subsidies in America & Europe?? since this would have helped keep the prices low and as results Indian farmers might not be able to compete effectively...what are your thoughts on this.

Well written article with supporting facts. I have been in confusion as to what side should I take. Living in the US, I see that Walmart is able to keep its prices low (at the cost of the producers) when compared to any other stores. Shouldn't I be in support of walmart from a consumer point of view?

7. Collision (Optional
Auto Insurance) -
Insurance pays for collision
damage to your auto, less any applicable deductible, no matter who causes
the accident. If your car is financed, your lender may require this
coverage as well as a particular deductible amount.
Selecting Your Deductible:
Your MA auto insurance deductible will be set at $500 unless you select a different amount.
You can always save on your premium by choosing a larger deductible where
one is offered. In determining the amount of deductible that is right for
you, decide how much you can afford to pay out of your own pocket in the
event of an accident or loss in which you are at fault, or the other
driver is unidentified. The deductible you choose is the amount you should
expect to pay if you use this coverage option. Information regarding
Selecting Your Deductible also applies to Limited Collision coverage (Part
8) and Comprehensive coverage (Part 9).
Waiver of Deductible for Auto Insurance:
Buying Collision coverage with a "waiver of deductible" means that the
collision deductible you choose will not apply when an accident is
caused by another identifiable driver. This is most helpful
when there is an uninsured, identifiable driver. If you are in an accident
caused by another identifiable driver who is insured, their Part 4
coverage (Damage to Someone Else's Property) will pay your automobile's
damages to the limit they purchased. You will not have to pay the
deductible amount.
If you are in an accident caused by another identifiable driver
who is uninsured, the waiver of deductible will pay the collision
deductible you selected; however, you must pay additional premium for this
Find out what your car is worth today. If you have a car of low dollar
value, it may be a wise economic choice not to buy the Collision
and Comprehensive coverage unless a lender requires it.
However, if your automobile has substantial value because of its
exceptional condition, such as an antique, classic or restored automobile,
you should have it appraised and then consider insurance coverage in light
of the appraised value.

Your personal study of a previous daily life may well be inspired from paying focus to other folks previous lives stories.
Some nations acknowledge reincarnation as a reality. In individuals countries it is much more probably to discover people with this kind of a memory. Most other individuals think that the mind is has been emptied of all past life memories and that is why individuals forget. You could not don't forget every thing but you might regularly get a rapid appear into the previous, a single that you may think is deja vu. It might seem to be like a vague memory of some thing that has took place before.
A memory could be prompted by anything. It might be an occasion, sounds, colours or shapes in your present existence. As an outcome, you may well want to discover far more about these momentary glimpses into the previous or you may possibly want to discover out more about yourself. Whatever your purpose, you can effectively investigate your very own past lives with self hypnosis. Allow these past existence memories inspire you to open up to your very own journey of healing through past life regression.
These are just a few of the many previous lives stories that illustrate the point.
Susan had a troubling sensitivity around her neck and didn't know why. There was no obvious cause for it. By way of previous daily life hypnosis, she discovered that she had been labeled as a witch in Salem for the duration of a witch hunt. They tied a rope around her neck and hung her. This gave her clarity about why her neck was so delicate. Her neck sensitivity lessened http://poker.midas303.com/domino-qiu-qiu/
quickly with this new comprehending.
Bill was feeling an all round sense of loss with no apparent reason. A single of his past existence memories incorporated residing in India. One particular day he was getting ready to hunt elephants. He was attacked and eaten by a tiger. Recognizing his very first sense of feeling reduction helped him to allow go of these feelings in his existing existence.
Paige had married younger and by the time she was forty, she had already been divorced twice. Every single time her husband had cheated on her and so she left. A past existence regression led her to learn that she had when been a guy. one who had been a gambler and cheated on his wife. Getting conscious of this pattern assisted her to break it and now she is blissfully married to a guy that treats her properly.
The significance of these past lives stories is that it provides you the potential to recognize exactly where your trouble stemmed from. When you do, you can let go of it. You don't require to place up with it any more.

Crooner preps for post-'True Grit' pic
July 2, 1968
GOOD MORNING: Glen Campbell is already warming for his second Hal Wallis pic post-"True Grit" with John Wayne. The next, in a one-a-year pact is "Norwood" — and the plan, sez Campbell, is to give him an "Andy Griffith image." … Meanwhile, the singer-musician took time off his Summer Bros. tv'r to weekend-hop to England and guest with Bobbie Gentry… Campbell may rejoin Jim Webb on the "Up, Up and Away" spec and Webb's wending to Par to title-tune "Grit" for Glen. Just one, big happy — talented — family… (2008 Update)… Campbell called me between golf games and taping promos for his new Capitol Records platter, "Meet Glen Campbell." He laughingly heard me recall the above 40-year-old column. And yes, he and Jim Webb are still pals "and we're still planning to do another album." But now, Glen is busily readying appearances with the new album. He'll play a rare L.A. club gig, at West Hollywood's Troubadour on Tuesday. Howcum the album's title is "Meet Glen Campbell"? I asked. "Exactly that — so people who don't know me — can meet me. And — it's a different sound." He is particularly proud of the tune "Grow Old With Me" by John Lennon and Yoko Ono. "She (Yoko) came down to give me the song — three-four months ago. The song is beautiful and she is a sweetheart." He sounded so full of the song, I actually asked him to sing some of it to me. How much chutzpah can I have?! Glen didn't take a beat, but proceeded to warmly warble these lines — "Grow old along with me — the best is yet to be. When our time has come, We will be as one. So God bless our love — God Bless our love. Grow old along with me, two branches of one tree…" He sounded warm and moved as he sang on the phone, which he transformed. He admitted being as happy as ever — especially with this new album and is looking forward to singing — in person. We kidded about his movie career — "Norwood" was his last film. "Here was a singer and a football player — playing actors! I'm not an actor." Glen reminisced about his experience working in movies. "You just hurry up and wait," he laughed. "I wasn't cut out to be an actor." Glen, 72, lives in Malibu, has 10 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He said, "I'm just happy being me."

So, I've been pretty down in the dumps about art and my place in the scheme of things, and it just comes down to one thing: I need to DRAW. And, not just for $$$ (although that IS very important here), not even because I think it'll go somewhere to further my career, but because I'm an artist, and typically, that's what we do.
See, I'm someone who is a perfectionist, through and through. I'd rather not start something without making it the ULTIMATE version of whatever that something is. For the most part, this is a good thing, at least when it doesn't interfere with getting projects DONE. People like that I always strive for the best, and never EVER half-ass things. BUT, (and here's where it's gone south for me), I have let it get to the point where I don't even START working on anything, unless I can see a tangible, and most importantly PERFECT END.
So, I've decided to just draw, for the sake of drawing. Every day, as much as I get to.
Who knows? This might even get one of my "perfect" (or maybe not-so perfect) comics into your hands just that much quicker.

As Jeroen said, to get any kind of useful knowledge (e.g. something you
can do real work with) you should read the books on the topics. These
topics are, from one side, very complex, and from the other, very
useless unless you're going to program device drivers and low level
kernel facilities. They are rarely (if ever) needed even for hard-core
sysadmin work and even most embedded work. If you just want a birds-eye
overview, I'll try to say something about the topics (and wait for
laughter from the really knowledgeable people ).
> I would like to know about the following. Plz add anything which you
> think will be helpful for the beginners.
> 1. Schematic diagrams of motherboards
This won't help you in any way except if you need to design
motherboards, in which case you need a multi-year education. Any high
level overview will be equally good, but the story usually goes "You
have this thing called the CPU, right, and you have these other things
called memory, the north bridge, the south bridge, the PCI slots. They
are all connected with various buses (and I mean really various). The
north bridge has the memory controller and some control of the low-level
CPU functions. The south bridge has the PCI controller and various other
integrated controllers like IDE, COM, sometimes sound, network &
graphics". Install "dmidecode" from ports/sysutils and if you're lucky
enough to have a good motherboard, you'll see what's connected to what
(and how many volts are used by it).
> 2. How a bios detects various kinds of buses
It usually asks the bus controllers what they know. It knows about the
low-level bus controllers from its own embedded data. The BIOS, of
course, knows how to communicate with the devices it contacts directly,
because it's created for the purpose of supporting them. Note that the
"BIOS" is just a software program, executed on the CPU as any other,
when the machine boots. Once a modern operating system is loaded,
everything is done by its device drivers and the BIOS is almost never
accessed after that.
> 3. How bios and os detects the different devices present in the system
> and what are their capabilities
It asks every device found on a bus, found by a bus controller, what is
it and what it does. There are really few capabilities that the devices
themselves have to say about themselves at this point - most of it is
low level stuff like electrical capabilities, what connectors and
interrupts they have. Even though devices have broad "groups" of
functionalities (like "Ethernet controller") they can report back, the
OS and the BIOS cannot really do anything with them - this is where
drivers come along. When a new device is found, internal tables are
searched to discover if there's a driver that can handle the device
(devices are identified by numbers; run "pciconf -lv" for examples). If
there is, the driver is left to do with the device as it sees fit.
> 4. How interrupts are routed inside
Some of the chips or parts of the north bridge chipset are "interrupt
controllers", which are programmed by the BIOS and the OS to map device
interrupts (i.e. "pci bus X, device Y, function Z") to CPU/software
interrupts (like "irq 18"). These interrupts are then handled by
specific drivers (run "vmstat -i" for a table which interrupts are used
by what driver).
> 5. Groups where we can communicate related information
I don't know any. Device driver writers or hardware designers would be
my best guess. This particular group is read by FreeBSD developers,
which are mostly software developers - you'll probably want to seek
direct answers someplace that's specialized for the topics.

Effect of applied. phosphorus, sulphur and zinc on yield and uptake parameters of wheat(Triticum aestivum) and soybean (Glycine max) grown on a loamy sand
A study iiilllS conducted during 1995-96 on the effect of phosphorus, sulphur and zinc application on yield and uptake parameters of creps, a greenhouse experiment on wheat (Triticum ueativum L. emend. Fiori & Paol.) and. soybean [Glycine max(L,) Mm.] on Typic Ustochrept(Inceptisol) with 4 levels ofP (0,13.4,26.8 and40.2rogPlkg) and S (0, 4.46,8.92 and 13.38 rug Slkg) and 2 of Zn (0 and 12.7 mg Zn/kg). ChemiCally pure salts were used as the sources of nutrients and the crops were irrigated with distilled water. The crops were harvested at maturity and plant samples were analysed for nutrient uptake following di-acid digestion. Ailalysis ofvariance was carried out ~ing split plot design. Uptake ofN, P and S was significantly enhanced by appliedP and S in botJi"wheat and soybean crops. Phosphorus applied at 26.8 and 40.2 mg P/kg and S applied at all levels increased the grain of soybean but Zn had no eff~. Application ofS @8.92 and 13.38 mg/kg also increased the oil content in soybean grain. The most effective combinations appeared to be 40.2 mg P along with 13.38 mg Slkg for grain yield of wheat, 26.8 mg P along with 13.38 rug S/kg for grain yield of soybean, and 8.92 rog S/kg for oil content in soybean grain. A dose of26.& mg P and 8.92 mg S preferably with 12.7 mg Znlkg soil appeared to be optimum for overall yield and quality ofwbeat and soybean crops.

Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is characterized by greatly reduced to absent eccrine glands and sebaceous glands and a characteristic facies. In our study of three male patients we found all three had classical atopic dermatitis and asthma. The autopsy of one patient showed an absence of mucous glands in the pharynx, larynx, trachea, large and small bronchi, and upper esophagus. These changes may be responsible for the increased susceptibility to respiratory infections. We also noted hypoplasia of the colonic glands. It is a sex-linked recessive disorder in which female carriers may show reduced sweating and faulty dentition.

An excellent thriller from director-star Ben Affleck, set during the Iranian hostage crisis. Based on the real-life plan to rescue six Americans -- a CIA plot that required a fake film. With Bryan Cranston, John Goodman, Alan Arkin. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for language and some violent images. 120 minutes.

Defying easy definitions and cinematic conventions, this unique and compelling drama follows a 6-year-old girl named Hushpuppy and her erratic father as they struggle to survive in a Louisiana bayou. (Clint O'Connor)
PG-13, for mature themes, child imperilment, language and brief sensuality. 91 minutes.
Grade: A-
A fabulously entertaining revenge-drama-comedy-Western-buddy-movie-love-story from mad genius Quentin Tarantino. Christoph Waltz and Jamie Foxx play bounty hunters trying to free a slave in the pre-Civil War South. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for strong graphic violence throughout, language and some nudity. 165 minutes.
A movie ostensibly about the postwar occupation of Japan, but mostly a plea to rehabilitate the country's wartime history and the behavior of its wildly worshipped ruler. Both efforts are obvious, and unsuccessful. With Tommy Lee Jones and Matthew Fox. (Newark Star-Ledger)
Grade: D+
PG-13; contains brief violence, alcohol abuse and strong language. 106 minutes.
Grade: A
Sci-fi cartoon about a courageous alien astronaut who lands on Earth, and gets into trouble his dweeby brother has to get him out of. It all feels a little warmed over, particularly the character design, although some of the more out-of-left-field moments work. (Newark Star-Ledger)
PG; contains sci-fi violence. 91 minutes.
Grade: C+
Bruce Willis returns in this explosive action thumper as guns-a-blazin' John McClane. For the fifth "Die Hard," he lands in Russia to help his son Jack (Jai Courtney) battle waves of well-armed thugs and try to upend a nuclear weapons plot. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for violence and language. 97 minutes.
Grade: B
Director Roger Michell takes us to 1939 and the relationship between President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his distant cousin Margaret "Daisy" Suckley. The king and queen of England are coming to visit, and FDR has some crafty PR planned. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for brief sexuality. 94 minutes.
Grade: A
Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy make a terrific comedy team in this road-trip romp about a man who has his identity stolen by a fiendish shopaholic. From "Horrible Bosses" director Seth Gordon. With Eric Stonestreet and Robert Patrick. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for sexual content and language. 150 minutes.
Grade: B
Entertaining, if unremarkable, shields-and-swords doings from "X-Men" director Bryan Singer. Magic beans lead Jack (Nicholas Hoult) to the land of giants, where he tries to rescue a princess (Eleanor Tomlinson) from beastly biggies. (Clint O'Connor)
PG-13, for scenes of action violence, frightening images and brief language. 114 minutes.
Grade: B
Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway provide some winning musical moments. But overall, director Tom Hooper's film version of the popular stage musical is stodgy and lumbering. With Russell Crowe, Amanda Seyfried and Eddie Redmayne. (Clint O'Connor)
PG-13, for suggestive and sexual material, violence and mature themes. 157 minutes.
Grade: C+
A magical adventure story about a boy adrift at sea with a Bengal tiger. Yann Martel's acclaimed novel is beautifully transferred to the screen by director Ang Lee. A visual marvel. Catch it in 3-D if you can. (Clint O'Connor)
PG, for emotional thematic content and some scary action sequences. 127 minutes.
Grade: A
Daniel Day-Lewis delivers one of the all-time great performances as Abraham Lincoln in Steven Spielberg's epic that examines aspects of the 16th president's political and emotional lives. With Sally Field, David Strathairn, Tommy Lee Jones. (Clint O'Connor)
PG-13, for an intense scene of violence, carnage and brief strong language. 149 minutes.
Grade: B
James Franco stars in this fantasy-adventure about what happened in Oz before Dorothy. Franco plays a carnival con man who floats into Oz, is proclaimed wizard of the realm and must immediately contend with three testy witches (Rachel Weisz, Mila Kunis and Michelle Williams). Entertaining family fun that does not taint the 1939 classic. (Clint O'Connor)
Grade: B+
PG, for sequences of action and scary images. 130 minutes.
A slight but mostly enjoyable comedy-drama, set in a retirement home for opera singers where the arrival of a new resident reopens wounds and, perhaps, rekindles an old passion. It all goes down a little like "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel." (Newark Star-Ledger)
PG-13; contains some strong language. 97 minutes.
Grade: B
A perfectly predictable, predictably inoffensive Nicholas Sparks romance, with Julianne Hough fleeing a violent crime and landing in the arms of small-town Southerner Josh Duhamel. For people looking for a very safe date-night movie, probably reassuring. (Newark Star-Ledger)
PG-13; contains violence, alcohol abuse and sexual situations. 115 minutes.
Grade: C+
Bradley Cooper stars as a man struggling with bipolar issues who meets a woman (Jennifer Lawrence) with her own set of problems. Despite a terrific cast, including Robert De Niro, this drama never quite reaches the depth and richness it strives for. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for language and some sexual content. 122 minutes.
Grade: B
Zombies living in a post-apocalyptic America hunt humans, but the game changes when one dead dude (Nicholas Hoult) falls for a living girl (Teresa Palmer). A winning premise, likable lead and a few laughs cannot make up for the film's overall blandness. (Clint O'Connor)
PG-13, for zombie violence and some language. 97 minutes.
Grade: C
Amy Berg's fascinating documentary dives deep into the case of the West Memphis 3, three teenagers convicted of a horrendous triple murder that occurred in Arkansas in 1993. The film charts the crime, trial and nearly 18-year attempt to free the three from prison. (Clint O'Connor)
Grade: A
R, for disturbing violent content and some language. 147 minutes.
Grade: A
Director Kathryn Bigelow's controversial drama chronicles the nearly 10-year hunt for Osama bin Laden, the efforts of several CIA agents and the climactic raid by the Navy's SEAL Team Six. With Jessica Chastain, Jason Clarke and Kyle Chandler. (Clint O'Connor)
R, for strong violence, including brutal disturbing images, and for language. 157 minutes.

My Wacom CTE 630's pen has become overly sensitive and will now react even when a centimeter or so from the tablet. It's driving me mad as it keeps grabbing things I don't want. iIs ages old and is probably not worth repairing.
Does anyone have any recommendations as there are so many available?
My current one has a mouse and pen but it looks like many don't now, is that the norm? I'd prefer one with rather than have to buy a new mouse too.

I have the Intuos 5 Large. It came with a mouse and pen. Love it to pieces. SO glad I didn't get a smaller version!
I have to fight my wife for it some days, she uses it in Maya, Blender, etc. for her work. She doesn't know this yet, but for Christmas she is getting the Cintiq 24HD... which should free up the Intuos 5 for me.
Wacom is a great company, they stand behind their products and I have never had any performance or compatibility issues.

A 10-YEAR-OLD GIRL underwent reduction cheiloplasty and excision of tongue nodules. The development of progressively patulous lips and thickening of the tongue began at age 6 years. Following surgery, a right neck mass was discovered. Thyroid scan revealed an enlarged gland with a cold area in the upper two thirds of the right lobe. A right thyroidectomy was performed. Her medical history included abdominal distension and the onset of severe constipation at age 4 years, which responded to medical treatment. On physical examination thick lips and an enlarged, nodular tongue were present (Figure 1 and Figure 2). A firm, visibly enlarged goiter was palpable in the left thyroid gland. An ultrasound study demonstrated an enlarged left lobe of the thyroid with 2 hypoechoic nodules and bilateral, enlarged cervical lymph nodes. Her serum calcitonin level was 299 pmol/L (reference, <26.6 pmol/L). A total thyroidectomy was performed with modified radical neck dissection. Pathologic interpretation of the removed tissue revealed medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) with metastases to the cervical lymph nodes. A review of the tongue biopsy specimen was consistent with mucosal neuromas. DNA sequencing analysis of exon 16 of the RET proto-oncogene from peripheral blood cells showed a germline M918T mutation (Figure 3).

It took only moments to realize what was happening across the field from my house -- a very small animal had fallen into harms way and was being attacked by a Pit Bull.
I ran to the scene, broke up the fight and found that the small animal was a puppy that was very badly injured. Instinctively, I wrapped him up and took him to the veterinarian. I agreed to pay for the emergency surgery and recovery.
The puppy had lost a leg, but found a home. With only three legs, and two on the port side, I named him Port, and he is my best friend.

River View
In three visits over nearly five decades, the writer finds that Marietta's historic Lafayette Hotel retains its colorful character and river-town charm.
Dick Feagler
There is, some say, a ghost that prowls the upper floors of the old Lafayette Hotel in Marietta, Ohio.
The ghost is known to be partial to women. I asked the hotel's general manager, Sheila Rhodes, about it.
"Well," said Ms. Rhodes, "all I know is what I've heard."
"What have you heard?" I asked.
"Okay," she said. "The top floors were built by a previous owner. And one night a couple checked into a suite up there. And she decided to take a shower. And he decided to join her in the shower."
"And as soon as he got in, the water turned ice cold," she said.
"Plumbing problems," I said.
"Except," she said, "Later that night his wife fell asleep. And he decided to go out and get some ice. So he left the door open. And as soon as he got into the hall, the door shut behind him. He couldn't get back in. The ghost didn't want him near her."
"You believe all this?" I asked.
She gave me a merry wink.
If there were a ghost in the Lafayette Hotel, it maybe should be the ghost of Marie Antoinette. The town — the oldest in Ohio — was named after her.
But even though she lost her head to the guillotine in the French Revolution, nobody claims she haunts Marietta. For such a ghost, that's fly-over country.
Lafayette was a shrewder politician. While all about him were losing their heads, he was safe in an Austrian prison and kept his on his neck. But he had been an American Revolution hero. So when he came back to America to visit, glasses were lifted wherever he went, celebrating his rock-star, sold-out victory tour.
At a time when rivers were our nation's jetways, he drifted up the Ohio, landed in Marietta and stayed at a hotel that was then called the Bellvue. That hotel burned down in 1912. But it was rebuilt in 1918 and renamed the Lafayette in honor of his stop there in 1825.
I first found the Lafayette in 1960. I had driven all night from my Army camp in Georgia headed for my wedding. When I crossed from West Virginia into Ohio, I wanted a place to shave, throw some water on my face and travel on.
I saw this old brick building on the bank of the river. I parked my car and went in. And stepped back in time about a century.
The hotel, somewhat shopworn but still rather well kept up, looked as if Lafayette might have checked out that morning. It was full of all the original trappings of river traffic. Trimmed in rich mahogany and upholstered in claret-colored brocade, its walls and hallways were crowded with pictures of steamships, faded posters advertising midnight boat excursions, old ship's clocks and great wheels from the helms of sternwheelers. I looked around in wonder. I figured I had entered a place that was part "Brigadoon" and part a chapter from Mark Twain's
Life on the Mississippi
But I had come in there for two things. A sink and a urinal. So I did what I had come for and moved on.
I thought I'd flushed the experience of the hotel behind me, but I was wrong.
When I went to Ohio University in the late '50s, one of the great pluses about the school was that there was no good way to get from Cleveland to your dorm. We liked that idea because our parents couldn't drop in on a Saturday morning just to see how we were doing. Whatever we were doing, we wanted at least 24 hours worth of diplomacy and appeasement preparation. They couldn't just pop in on a whim.
They still can't. But I-77 has shortened the ride. When you head south from Cleveland, I-77 carves a slice through the wonderful green hills of Appalachia. After you pass Cambridge, the verdant landscape is broken only by a large sign that says "adult videos — truckers welcome." Then you drive on to Marietta.
You take a kink to the west and drive another hour to the campus of OU.
Where you can enter your kid's door without knocking. But I wouldn't.
I mention this because the next time I saw the Lafayette was a couple of decades later. I was on my way to visit my son at Ohio University. I was routed through Marietta and saw the old hotel and told my wife that we had to stop there. We walked into the Lafayette
Hotel lobby and it was as it always had been, but better.
We stayed the night and took a ride on the
Valley Gem
, a replica of an old riverboat, up the Muskingum River, vowing to visit again soon.
Well, it took another 20 some years, but we finally returned. Everything seemed to have stood still in time, but the whole place was smarter.
It was like the old hotel had gotten shipshape and Bristol fashion.
All the artifacts of the river are still there. But now the mahogany gleams with polish. The bar is a wonder of yesterday's conviviality. Chandeliers sparkle. Upholstered lobby chairs invite. We were back a hundred years ago again.
And, if you hanker for "steam-boatin'," the walls are still hung with posters of old steamboat rides where people danced beneath the stars on the slow, patient river.
Over time, each hotel room has been redecorated. Now all the furniture is an original antique or a carefully copied piece. If you ignore the TV set beyond the armoire doors or the air-conditioning unit in the wall, you would think you were spending the night in an opulent hotel of Mark Twain's era.
Two of the rooms in the Lafayette have balconies that look down at the Ohio River. Many other rooms have the same window view. Price-wise, these rooms cost about as much as a city hotel that looks out on an air shaft.
You can sit on the balcony at night or by your window and watch the moonlight ripple on the water as barges slowly and silently make their way down the river heading for the Mississippi.
I was born on a lake, but I love river towns. A lake just sits there. But a river is always going somewhere. And it beckons you to go, too.
Lakes don't beckon. Their borders announce boundaries.
Rivers, heedless of geography, flow with ceaseless destination. They were headed someplace before we were here, or before the Indians who fished from their banks were, or certainly, before Lafayette floated up the Ohio with no dream of how much bigger this country would grow.
I asked Ms. Rhodes if she ever wondered why Marietta, situated at the confluence of the Muskingum and Ohio rivers, never became a Cincinnati or a Pittsburgh.
"I don't know," she said. "We're just as happy it didn't."
This summer money is short. If you can afford a vacation of any kind, Ohio is a wonderful place to visit.
We invented airplanes. We sent the first man in orbit around the earth. We are the birthplace of the first man to step on the moon. And the Lafayette is on the banks of a river that empties its water into the muddy Mississippi.
The mingled waters opened a natural pathway to what became the greatest nation on earth.
Looking for a nice, short vacation? Walk into the hotel lobby and say: "Lafayette, we are here! Feagler sent us."
Dick Feagler, former columnist for the Cleveland Press and the The Plain Dealer, currently hosts a talk show, "Feagler and Friends," on WVIZ, Cleveland's PBS station.

Annual Woodman Hall Spaghetti Dinner
Baby it's cold outside! But it's warm inside Woodmen Hall, and the third annual spaghetti dinner awaits you on Saturday, Jan. 19, from 4 to 7 p.m. And how are warmth and spaghetti linked, you ask? Well, the Friends of Woodmen Hall have dedicated proceeds from this event to the completion of the insulation project, which both warms up this historic (but old and drafty) building and lowers energy costs. The insulation project is about 80 percent done; insulating under the floor and inside and outside the skirting will complete the blanket.
The dinner, featuring Jim Ghinazzi's fabulous spaghetti sauce, also has salad and garlic bread on the menu. Purchase a glass of wine to go with your dinner. Vegetarian and gluten-free options as well as take out will be available. Once again Lance Brittain and Friends will provide music to eat and socialize by. Tickets are at Paper Scissors on the Rock, Lopez Senior Services, at the Lopez Village Market and at the door.
The Friends of Woodmen Hall have been raising money for the renovation of this historic building since 2004. In addition to the start of the insulation project, 2012 saw the exterior of the Hall receive a new coat of paint, thanks to donations of funds and to the donation of the talents of professional local painters and preparation help.
Also in 2012 the Senior Advisory Committee hired an event coordinator, whose responsibility is to promote use of Woodmen Hall for community events. The event coordinator can be reached at 468-3092.
This much-loved building is the home of Lopez Senior Services, which provides many programs, including Wednesday and Friday lunches, often with programs of local interest, crafting sessions, and game days. For information on these services, call the Senior Services coordinator at 468-2421.
Doug Poole of Sage Building Solutions has donated many hours of time to the development and the work involved in the insulation project. Working with the Senior Advisory Committee, he and his staff and a small team of volunteers have helped to stabilize the hall and to bring it into the 21st century. Doug and the committee could use more volunteer help to finish this project. No major stills are needed; on-the-job training is available! Contact Doug at 468-4040 if you can lend some time and muscle.
Come and enjoy an evening of good food, good music, and good friends. Banish the winter blahs, and help us finish warming up Woodmen Hall.

First of all let me say that my wife and I are veteran travelers of cruises and we are platinum on carnival. They certainly call them "The Fun Ships" for a reason. We enjoyed a four day stay in New York prior to departing on our cruise and New York can be confusing if you let it be. Enough said about that.
Our cruise was awesome. Our journey began with a speedy embarkation (about 30 minutes) and then we went right onto the ship. our state room was waiting for us. We dropped off our caryon items then went exploring. we were on her sister ship in January so we were familiar with the layout. I can say that navigating the big ship is rather easy as long as you remember your right from left and front from back. Guy's hamburgers were the highlight of the afternoon and I ate lunch there almost everyday. Those burgers are awesome. Just get the plain jane with cheese then add your own toppings, there is plenty to choose from at the fixin bar. Our stateroom was roomy ( for an inside cabin) we never get the balcony rooms because we simply don't spend alot of time in there except for showers/sleep and a few extra activities.
The ship was exceptionally clean and everywhere I looked someone was always cleaning. The food was good not fantastic but since we did not have to cook it was very apitizing. The Did Ya Ever choice on the menu every night was tasty. Like I said before we are veteran cruisers an d we love Carnival. We have tried all of the cruise lines and always go back to Carnival. I think were are just booking Carnival from now on. I honestly believe that you get out of a cruise what you are expecting. I have heard and seen negative reviews before every cruise and then taken the cruise and had an awesome time. Don't believe everything you read. Just go and have fun. Crusing is simpy the best. Carnival Glory does not disapoint. Wre are already booked on our next cruise in January. A 16 day adventure through the panamal canal. Cant wait until we sail. Good luck and happy sailing.

30 Apr Welcoming New Families
Posted at 10:35h in Latest News
Welcoming New Families
Several new families to The Denver Waldorf School got together today to brainstorm ways to build community and reach out to families new to our school.
Thank you to Woodrose Parent Kelly Church for organizing and hosting at her home!
Every year The Denver Waldorf School Parent Council, a group focused on drumming up community-building ideas and communicating with parents about the school, creates a "New Parent Guide" to help new families navigate our school community.
The "New Parent Guide" is a humorous peek into our school community from the parent's perspective. The "New Parent Guide" is great for new families ~ and veterans of our community may learn something new as well!

Referring to a lava lamp. When it is at it's lavaiest, or most lava-like state. Not to be confused with "full of lava." Two COMPLETELY different meanings.
Person 1:I plugged the lava lamp in 5 minutes ago. It's still not fullavaly.
Person 2:..... Fullavaly?
Person 2:..... Fullavaly?

The Hamptons once again served as a playground for the starry set as celebs descended on the Long Island community last weekend for a variety of events. Toni Braxton kicked things off by wowing fans, including Alec Baldwin, at a July 29 VH1 Save the Music benefit in East Hampton. The next day Kelly Ripa joined hundreds of shoppers at the Super Saturday designer yard sale in Water Mill, which raised $2 million for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. Just down the road Matt Dillon and Vivica A. Fox met up with polo ponies and a lion cub (courtesy of South African Tourism) at the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge. That evening a parade of Mercedeses headed to Russell and Kimora Lee Simmons's East Hampton home for their annual Art For Life fund-raiser. Among the 1,000 guests: Cynthia Nixon, P. Diddy, Usher, Bon Jovi and Alicia Keys. Sunday morning Kimora Lee surveyed the damage. "My grass is trampled over," she told us. "But what a weekend!"
Forget those reports of Ashlee Simpson's hooking up with Wilmer Valderrama. At E!'s Summer Splash party at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel's Tropicana Bar Aug. 1, Jessica's little sis showed up with none other than her sometime boyfriend Ryan Cabrera. "Wilmer's one of my best friends," said Simpson, holding Cabrera from behind. "We always laugh when people say we're together." The on-again, off-again couple, who reportedly broke up in August 2004, held hands and acted cozy throughout the evening. When asked if she and Cabrera had rekindled their romance, Simpson coyly responded (as Cabrera leaned into listen), "Me and Ryan? We're really good."
Paris Hilton and Paris Latsis's summer-long engagement party sailed into treacherous waters July 31. Despite rough seas, the couple set off from Saint-Tropez on a yacht bound for the Italian island of Sardinia. They soon ran into 12-ft. waves in the Mediterranean. "It felt like we were living The Perfect Storm," says Hilton pal Allison Melnick, calling Insider from Italy. She was on board with guests including Nicky Hilton and her beau, Kevln Connolly. Fortunately, the group made port Aug. 1—more nauseous than before but safe and sound.

Bret Michaels: 'I'm So Thankful to Be Alive'
Twelve Days After His Brain Hemorrhage, the Rocker Recounts His Terrifying Ordeal-and His Determination to Live to See His Kids Again
Rushed to a Scottsdale medical center by Gibson and then taken by ambulance to St. Joseph's Hospital in Phoenix, the rocker-who had just undergone an appendectomy about a week before-was diagnosed with a subarachnoid hemorrhage (bleeding at the base of his brain stem). Over the next nine days he underwent round-the-clock tests in the ICU of the hospital's Barrow Neurological Institute as his team of doctors, led by Dr. Joseph Zabramski, raced to find the cause of the bleeding. Fortunately for Michaels, there was no aneurysm (a bulging blood vessel that could rupture and cause death). According to Dr. Zabramski, Michaels' hemorrhage "occurred for no reason at all" and was unrelated to his lifelong diabetes or the freak accident at the Tonys last year when he was hit on the head. "It's okay that we can't find the cause," he says. "In fact it's great." Michaels, 47, was moved on April 30 to a rehabilitation facility for physical therapy and is expected to make a full recovery. Speaking for the first time about his ordeal to PEOPLE's Anne Marie Cruz on May 3, he and Gibson discuss the critical minutes after the hemorrhage, the agonizing moments in the hospital and how this brush with death might just change his rock-of-love life.
Bret Michaels: All day long I'd been feeling a little out of it. I thought it was just from the appendectomy and pain medicine. And then when [the hemorrhage] happened, it sounded like a handgun, like it literally popped. It made my mind go almost blank. My neck tensed up. I couldn't move my head at all. And the pain ... if you can imagine a migraine times 10. I knew I was in trouble. My adrenaline kicked in to like 1,000. I was not going to have my family wake up and see me dead on the living room floor. I don't know what I was doing, but I was pacing because I just did not want to lie back down. I always think of a concussion where you don't want to go to sleep and just say you have a headache. But I couldn't yell because it hurt too bad.
Kristi Gibson: The girls and I were asleep when Bret came in and said, "We need to go to the emergency room right now." I called my girlfriend to come stay with the kids. We got to the hospital, and he couldn't get out of the car. He was sitting there just holding his head and saying, "I'm going to throw up."
Bret: [At the Scottsdale ER] they did a CAT scan. I knew I was slurring my words, and I was like, "Okay, this isn't a headache. There's something really bad happening." The doctor said, "Do you have kids?" And I said, "Yeah, I have two daughters." He said, "I would bring them to the hospital." And I said in these exact words, "Am I dying? If I'm dying, I want to see my kids, but if I have a chance, I don't want them to see me in this condition. If there's a chance ..." And he said, "Well, there's obviously a chance. You're still alive, and people die instantly from this."
I didn't have my entire life flash before my eyes when it happened. I was just sad. Not depressed, but sad thinking of my daughters growing up without me. It's the weirdest thing: You feel so much love and realize in a moment, in an instant-I know everyone says this, but it's really true-you focus on what becomes really important. You're not thinking, "I better make some business calls." My children, Kristi, my sisters, my dad and my mom-I wanted to call all of them.
Kristi: I was quite calm because I had to be, but when he went to have tests done, I broke down and cried. When he came back, I kept telling him, "It's okay, it's okay." Because I know Bret: If I freak out, he freaks out, and it's not good for his blood pressure to go high.
Bret: I don't know if I passed out or they drugged me out. All of a sudden, a day later, I woke up and I had a zillion wires and stuff connected to me. And I opened my eyes, and I was like, "I am so thankful. I'm lucky to be alive."
Dr. Zabramski: Once an hour we'd wake him up and ask, "Do you know who you are? Where are you? What day is it?" You're trying to assess whether he's getting any complications. He showed progressive signs of improvement, [but] I didn't feel comfortable he was really aware until Saturday [April 24]. Saturday, it was like the lights came back on.
Bret: I'm a believer it's a combination of will and faith. Will-and good medical attention-and faith. It just wasn't my time yet. I really believe that. If I had stayed on the couch for another hour, that probably would've done me in. In a weird way God intervened: The appendicitis forced me to come home for a couple days. Otherwise I could've been on my tour bus at a truck stop somewhere, nowhere near a medical center. Of all the ways that I thought I could go out, that wasn't one of them. Definitely not the rock star way to go out.
After the third or fourth day, I had the hyponatremia: My salt level dropped. Now I had another complication, [but] this is what they were watching for. Dr. Zabramski said, "You're beating this. I don't know how. I don't know why."
Kristi: On Sunday the nurse was going to sponge-bathe him, and he said, "I want Kristi to do it." So when I started to get everything ready, he told everyone to get out of the room because we were going to make out. [Laughs] I said to myself, "I think he's going to be okay!"
Bret: I do have a little short-term memory loss. And now there's [dissolving] blood in my lower spine [causing what's called chemical meningitis]. It feels like I cracked my tailbone. When they tried to stand me up the first time, I couldn't get out of the bed by myself. An hour later when some of the drugs kicked in, I tried it again and was able to stand on my own a little bit and walk a little bit.
Kristi: He realized, "Holy cow, I could've died." He said some things that I wanted to hear from him for years. He was like, "We need to go on a family trip." And I was like, "Yeah, that would be good!"
Bret: As painful as this experience has been, I was given a second chance, right? I don't want to sit around every night worrying this is going to happen again. What I want to do is make a positive bucket list and say, "I'm just gonna go for it." There's just so much more that I want to do and experience. [Getting married], for sure, is something I have never done. Kristi's such a great person. We'll see if that happens. But yes, that may be one of the big things on the list. My first goal is to get back [to] 100 percent. I want to continue to rock the world, and I want to continue to love my family and be a good father.

With killer songs and a hotline to the stars, 22-year-old Lianne La Havas has already found her voice, says Ed Potton
Try as you might to maintain a professional distance, the odd interview does end with a hug. Never in my experience has one begun with a hug. But that's the first thing that Lianne La Havas does when we meet, leaping up from her table in a North London café to envelop me in the kind of embrace you might give to a close relative in an airport. The cynical might see this as an attempt to get a hack onside, but it soon becomes obvious that La Havas is just eccentrically, guilelessly nice.
That shouldn't come as a surprise.

C. Goukenleuque, B. B\'{e}zard, E. Lellouch (Obs. Paris, France)
We have developed a radiative equilibrium atmospheric model that we first applied to 51 Peg b orbiting 51 Peg A at 0.05 AU (Goukenleuque et al, Icarus, submitted). We present an extension of the model to other extrasolar systems with different masses and orbital distances of the planet.
In this model, the planet is in circular orbit and is externally heated by the stellar radiation. Opacity is provided by the rotational-vibrational bands of H2O, CO, CH4 and NH3, and by the collision-induced absorption of H2-H2 and H2-He pairs. The heating rates and cooling rates are calculated through a line-by-line multilayer radiative transfer code in the visible and IR wavelength range. The mean temperature profile is then derived, in the pressure range 10-5 to 1-30 bar, under the assumption of radiative equilibrium.
Simulations have been run for various masses (0.5-2 MJ) and orbital distances of the planet to the primary from 0.05 AU (51Peg b) to 0.23 AU (\rho CrB b). In all cases, the models do not show any temperature inversion. The thermal structure is subadiabatic at any pressure level, which validates the radiative equilibrium assumption. For 51 Peg b, we find that the model temperatures are in the range 700-1200 K above the 0.1-bar level, which is higher than predicted by Burrows et al.'s (1997) non gray model for isolated planets, but lower than Wiedemann's (1997) Jupiter-scaled model. At 0.05 AU, the CO/CH4 ratio is greater than 1 over the whole pressure grid, but it decreases as the 1-MJ planet orbits farther the primary. Finally, CH4 dominates over CO at all atmospheric levels beyond 0.23 AU.
For any planet, the emission and reflection spectra, from which Bond albedos and effective temperatures have been calculated, are dominated by the water vapor bands, revealing a pronounced atmospheric window at 4 \mum. We assessed the detectability of spectral signatures from close-in EGPs by by calculating high resolution spectra (R~5000) for 51 Peg b in the CH4 band at 3.3 \mum and CO band at 4.7 \mum.

Joanne Milne grew up with Usher Syndrome and has been deaf from birth. Recently, she underwent surgery to be fitted with cochlear implants, and it proved to be a life-changing operation.
This is the first time she was able to experience the effects of the surgery.
Milne's cochlear implants were switched on March 24, allowing the 40-year-old to hear for the first time. Her mother, present for the occasion, captured Milne's reaction to the sound of her doctor speaking. It's the first time Milne's heard the sound of her own voice, much less another person's.
There's something especially touching about the ordinary nature of Milne's first moment of hearing. The first sound Milne hears isn't a Beethoven symphony or a birdsong. It's simply another person's voice, and her own, talking in a room. And it's beautiful.

The Israeli occupation forces stormed the village of Bil'in early this morning. The Israeli forces of army and police occupation stormed the village of Bil'in at 1:30 a.m., raiding the houses of Ali Ibrahim Bornat and Khames Abo Rahma. They searched the houses and tampered with their contents under the pretext of a search for foreigners. It also prevented the local press from documenting the event. The operation lasted for an hour.

"It also prevented the local press from documenting the event. The operation lasted for an hour."
Always keep in mind that Israel kept the international press from documenting what took place in the Gaza. When Israeli soldiers hit the deck of the Mavi Marmara they not only confiscated all recording devices they killed a few of the individuals recording what was taking place.

Didn't Kissinger once (1980's ?) tell Israel that it could do anything it wanted if it but removed the media first? (Can't find it, but did find this, similar: http://us-orders-media-silence-over-bahrain.)

Or, if you can't remove the media, just beat the crud out of them:
In the thread about Mr. Khamis' killing you chastised someone for her inappropriate comment given the context.
Implied in your condemnation was that her comment defied the norms of common decency.
So, the question that arises is this: Why is it that your outrages over violations of common decency are limited to that thread?
Outside the Zionist community, the targeting of journalists by Israeli forces defies common decency. Off the top of my head I know of at least three who were intentionally targeted by the Israeli military, shot and killed. This does not include the attacks and restrictions placed on non-Jewish journalists inside Israel (Dan Rather crew had a Palestinian cameraman who was barred from entry, for example).
So, why do you prefer being a hypocrite?
eljayApril 4, 2011, 12:47 pm
>> GF: Or, if you can't remove the media, just beat the crud out of them …
Funny how defence of Israel is often phrased as "it's not as bad as the worst" rather than "it's as good as or better than the best".
>> Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, issued a statement on Friday pledging that Hamas "would not interfere with any journalist whatsoever, be it in the form of physical assault, verbal abuse, or humiliation." Hassan Abu Hashish, head of the Hamas government press office, also vowed that security summons and arrests of journalists would come to an end and that all detained journalists would be released.
>> "The statement by Hamas' press office is an implicit admission that it has repeatedly engaged in violence and intimidation against journalists," said Abdel Dayem. "We call on Hamas to now carry out its pledge to end harassment of media and release all detained journalists immediately."
Hamas' actions are reprehensible. Hamas must heed Abdel Dayem's call, and those responsible for the transgression must be held accountable.
So…what does the Hamas incident have to do with Israel's actions?

RE: "The Israeli occupation forces stormed the village of Bil'in early this morning." – Hamde Abu Rahme
(excerpt)…It was Sharon who pioneered the philosophy of 'maintained uncertainty' that repeatedly extended and then limited the space in which Palestinians could operate by means of an unpredictable combination of changing and selectively enforced regulations, and the dissection of space by settlements, roads Palestinians were not allowed to use and continually shifting borders. All of this was intended to induce in the Palestinians a sense of permanent temporariness. Maintaining control of the Occupied Territories keeps open to Israel the option of displacing Palestinian citizens of Israel into the Territories by means of limited land swaps. It also ensures that Israel retains the ability to force future returning refugees to settle in their 'homeland', whereas a sovereign Palestinian state might decline to accept the refugees. It suits Israel to have a 'state' without borders so that it can keep negotiating about borders, and count on the resulting uncertainty to maintain acquiescence…

Israeli soldiers and intel officers also stormed Jenin shortly before Juliano Mer-Khamis was assassinated. Funny, that.

Perspective of the Chinese-Russian cooperation in the sphere of the oil, gas and chemical industry
In: Euroasian international cooperation: the model and perspectives of development
The explored stocks of oil of Russia make 11.6 % of total stocks of oil of the world, gas stocks make 33.5 % of the explored world's gas reserves. Now export of gas from Russia takes the first place in the world; oil export – the second place. In this connection Russia plays the main role in the world market of hydrocarbonic resources. Export of oil to China makes approximately 2 % from total exports of oil of Russia. Now there are two problems of manufacture and oil and gas refining in Russia: 1) updating and increase of the equipment quality degree for processing and oil and gas transportation, increase of technological level of oil refining and quality of mineral oil is required; 2) maintenance of long duration of manufacture and new oil fields exploration. For the decision of these problems the investment of huge means is required: in the sum of 200-210 billion US dollars. In this connection there is a cooperation prospect between China and Russia on exploration of oil and gas resources. Within the next 20 years China will turn to the most perspective consumer market of oil and gas in the world that will provide switching of attention to exploration of hydrocarbonic resources of East Russia and change of a direction of oil and gas export to Asian-Pacific region. It gives favorable chance for building in Xinjiang pipelines of hydrocarbonic resources and for considerable development of cooperation with Russia as a whole. In Xinjiang there are highly effective deep petropumps, oil-field installations, force reservoirs, electrocontrol installations for the petroindustry and others. Accordingly there are possibilities for trade and cooperation between Xinjiang and Russia in the field of oil refining. Now the Governments of China and Russia promote creation of favorable conditions for commerce development between the Chinese and Russian enterprises that will lead to the further development of the Chinese-Russian cooperation.
