Mayhem # 2840853
About MeI like to keep it short and sweet when it comes to these sort of things so here it goes.
If I choose to bring an escort with me to a shoot and you refuse it, I will not be working with you. As a female I should and will be allowed to have someone accompany me if i choose to. Lets get real.
I do not do nude shoots without pay. No exceptions.
I do have tattoos, piercings and an alternative look to me so if that tickles your fancy then I just might be your girl.
I am versatile, adaptable, and comfortable in any setting. If you're interested in collaborating just message me and i'll get back with you as soon as I get it.
(bare with me though, I tend to forget to check mail on here sometimes.)
I like different styles, so if you're interested in collaboration then hit me up.

What our Customers Say about our Service
"I was very impressed with the service I received!! I wanted a special gift delivered to a special person in Turkey and this was accomplished thanks to all of you! The customer service was very professional and considerate. I was notified of every step and was also able to make substitutions due to delays, which were not due to the company. I don't know of a single other company that takes the time to personally call their customers to be sure a quality product is delivered and picked up in the same condition. Thank you all for your wonderful service :)"
Michelle - Oklahoma, USA - February 20, 2013
"Used their service for the first time and was immediately impressed by their professionalism (received a phone call soon after order was placed to confirm details) and the subsequent delivery of my gift (To Split, Croatia) was as requested. The gift itself was exactly as described and pictured in the catalogue and of the highest standard. Would highly recommend to anyone requiring overseas gift delivery."
Danny - Australia - Mar 3, 2011
"I wanted to send a gift to my boyfriend in UK and am in one of those developing countries where the use electronic payment system is not available to pay online with a credit card, and my bf's birthday was on Saturday. I googled a weekend delivery facility and thanks God I found Giftbasketoverseas. I sent an email to them seeking confirmation that they would deliver on saturday and got a confiration response in the next 5 min... I was like waouwwwww... what a professional customer service! When order time came I wondered how will I pay? I went through their website and found offline payment methods suitable to my location, -a wire transfer to their bank account or western Union money transfer. I sent the cash via western union and communicated to them MCTN, they collected the cash then asked me for details of my order.. they created it.... The basket was delivered on the right day and at the correct location, my boyfriend was speechless when he received it... I really appreciated the professionalism of the service... Great!"
UWERA M. - Rwanda - Dec 13, 2011
"We are really impressed by your service and prompt delivery and our family in the UK are to quote "extremely grateful for their lovely gift" Cheers"

Black Diamond - Express Ice Screws
Without question, the Black Diamond Express Ice Screws are the easiest and fastest placing screws to ever sink their way into ice. Black Diamond improved their renowned Express by redesigning the tooth geometry for easier starts, adding larger crank knobs that are easier to grab and augmenting the hanger with a second clip-in point for belay organization. Quick to bite and easy to crank in, the Express screw features a tapered tube where the teeth cut a hole just larger than the tube itself, for less friction and faster placements. The foldable speed-drive knob is color-coded for quick length identification and offers uninterrupted 360-degree motion. New stainless steel hangers are lighter than previous models, won't rust and reduce melt-out on sunny routes. The Express is built in five lengths to accommodate a variety of ice conditions. All sizes of screws are now CE-certified. Patented.

Food allergies are all too common among children these days. Using a Stuck On You Name Label (Allergy Mini) on your child's belongings can help alert the community to a range of different conditions.
Our eye-catching sticker labels will ensure carers, teachers, sports coaches, friends and other parents in the community are aware of your child's allergy. A big, bold name sticker can also help remind your little one to be aware of their allergies when sharing food with friends, and can help when labelling items in the kitchen..
Choose from
- No dairy
- No nuts
- No eggs
- No gluten
- No seafood
These labels come range of sizes and shapes to suit your needs.
Simply enter your child's first name and surname, then choose your favourite colour combination and font. Once your order is placed, our team will get started on creating your labels and shipping them directly to your door.
To make the most out of your Mini Pencil Labels, we suggest applying them using the "Flagging Method". Instead of sticking your label lengthways along the side of a pencil, you should wrap them around the end like a little flag. This will ensure your labels stay stuck for longer, and your child's pencils are less likely to go missing!
Before applying name labels, please ensure the surface is clean and dry. Adhere your name labels to a smooth surface. Rub firmly across the label to ensure there are no air bubbles.
Once applied do not wash the item for at least 48 hours to allow the label time to bond. For best results hand-wash only.

Singapore Central Bank Eases Policy by Adjusting Currency Bandby
MAS says it will reduce pace of local dollar's appreciation
Economy expands 0.1 percent, avoiding technical recession
Singapore's central bank eased monetary policy for the second time in 2015 in an effort to revive growth. The local dollar advanced to the strongest in almost a month.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore, which uses the currency rather than interest rates to guide the economy, said in a statement Wednesday it would "slightly" reduce the pace of the currency's appreciation versus those of its trading partners. The central bank kept both the center and the width of its currency band unchanged.
The economy avoided a technical recession in the third quarter, expanding 0.1 percent from the previous three months, when it shrank a revised 2.5 percent, the trade ministry said Wednesday at the same time as the policy announcement. The central bank said it expects core inflation to quicken gradually in 2016 toward its historical average of close to 2 percent. Sixteen of 25 economists surveyed by Bloomberg predicted the MAS would ease policy, while the remainder predicted no move.
"MAS delivered an easing today, but it is only a token one, with a slight reduction of the slope, but not a shift to neutral," said Khoon Goh, a senior currency strategist at Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. in Singapore. "They still see core inflation picking up next year towards the historical average, and that is probably why they don't see a need for a more aggressive easing."
Singapore's dollar gained 0.4 percent to S$1.3974 against the U.S. currency as of 9:01 a.m. local time, after reaching S$1.3908, the strongest level since Sept. 18. It has still weakened 5.2 percent this year.
'Gradual Appreciation'
While the central bank will retain a "modest and gradual appreciation" of its currency against a basket of its trading partners, "the rate of appreciation will be reduced slightly," it said in the statement. "This measured adjustment follows the move to reduce the rate of appreciation of the policy band in January this year, and is supportive of economic growth into 2016."
The central bank guides the local dollar against a basket of its counterparts and adjusts the pace of its appreciation or depreciation by changing the slope, width and center of a currency band. It doesn't disclose details on the basket, or the band or the pace of appreciation or depreciation. The MAS has two scheduled policy announcements a year, one in April and the other in October.
"It's a very subtle move," said Nizam Idris, head of currencies and fixed-income strategy at Macquarie Bank Ltd. in Singapore. "The market was definitely expecting a slightly more aggressive move than this. It should mean profit taking in long dollar-Sing position and a lower dollar-Sing."
Singapore's dollar will probably trade between S$1.39 and S$1.41 in the "very short term," he said.

Financial Editor
Derek Wanless is trying not to look piqued. But, having been jilted twice in just a few months, NatWest Group's chief executive is not finding it easy. First he tried to push through to the altar with Barings' corporate finance department; then last week he sought to elbow the chosen groom, Swiss Bank Corporation, out of the aisle, and snatch Warburg. In both cases the damsels were in distress, but evidently not sufficiently to accept NatWest's advances.
The market is left wondering what it will try next. For few big banks, in a sector permanently awash with takeover and merger speculation, have been so open about their ambition to become an international investment banking force. In March Mr Wanless said building up NatWest Markets, probably by acquisition, was a priority. This was based on the feeling that the core retail banking side is on a low earnings trajectory, with investment banking viewed as a growth area, despite the miseries of the sector last year.
Mr Wanless gave the impression that his group was looking primarily at New York, where NatWest Markets has a weak presence, for an investment banking acquisition. Suddenly, however, the action switched to London when Barings' collapse offered NatWest the chance to pick up a blue-chip merchant banking operation. In the event, ING, the Dutch bank and insurance group, bought all of Barings. But NatWest's appetite had clearly been whetted, for three months later it made a late try for Warburg too.
Both bids seemed highly opportunistic, but were not without logic. For NatWest still has a patchy UK investment banking business, looking for a step up to the first division. While it has some recognised strengths in securities - NatWest Markets has just scooped three of the four main prizes in the first Reuters ranking of investment analysts - the corporate finance side has never recovered from the ravages of the Blue Arrow debacle. NatWest has found that a strong corporate list on the commercial banking side does not translate into the advisory franchises that bring the lucrative, recurring business.
That is the reason why NatWest was tempted by Barings, and was the key to what it wanted from Warburg. The extent of duplication on the securities side would have caused a real problem, however, necessitating large redundancies - a factor which militated against NatWest's overture.
But snobbery was another powerful reason why NatWest's overtures came to nothing. The public school chaps at Barings and Warburg looked down their long noses at the Manchester grammar school retail banking boys in their polyester suits and said "No". "If NatWest had got near us, half of corporate banking would have walked out," one Warburg director said. All the tribulations of Barings and Warburg had apparently failed to dent the ethos of merchant banking superiority, one of the more unique features of the City in international financial centres. Given that investment banking takeovers are about buying and retaining assets on two legs, this prejudice had to be taken seriously. Ironically, both Barings and Warburg probably found it less disagreeable to capitulate to foreigners than NatWest.
Despite his comparatively fat chequebook, Mr Wanless is not spoilt for City targets. Schroders would be a good fit, with scant securities duplication and a powerful corporate finance reputation. But Schroders is as prejudiced as the others about the attractiveness of mere retail bankers, and the 43 per cent held by the family makes it a difficult target. Kleinwort Benson is still the most obvious. Both banks are seeking to pursue a more limited strategy that does not require large amounts of capital, such as NatWest is offering.
NatWest may find it easier to focus on its original plan to expand in New York. But there may be little time. If the Glass-Steagall Act, keeping apart lending and securities businesses, is largely repealed, as seems likely, then the floodgates will be opened for the US retail banking giants to pour onto Wall Street in a buying spree the likes of which has not been seen for some time. NatWest could well be washed aside.

My husband and I went to visit Emirates Palace for an afternoon. The hotel is very grand and beautiful, but besides just walking around there is a whole lot to do there. With that being said we decided to do their afternoon tea, which was a VERY good decision. The food and the desserts were absolutely amazing. We chose the...
The place is spectacular and a treat for the eyes! Very beautifully made. Regarded as the costliest hotel in the world to be built before Marina Bay Sands in Singapore was built.
Well for sure the emirates palace is amazing and for sure being there as a guest has to be very nice but for tourism there is nothing special to give when you are inside the only thing you can do is drink a coffee with paper gold that cost 15 dls and that's it, nevertheless is the second must see...
The place to get a fancy 24kt coffee and an expensive camel burger. Beautiful to walk in and take photos in the grand lobby.
Very strict dress code for men. Make sure to check their website or give them a call, but I believe there are no shorts allowed.
Their Emirates brunch is delicious!
This is a lovely building and a must see ,if you have time and money take tea in the largest lounge ever ,this is classed as a 7 star hotel and you can see why
They welcome visitors to go inside and look ,as the inside resembles luxury and looks like the English Albert Hall Theatre but so vast ,bright...
The hotel is over the top lux, a specialty of the UAE! We only came for dinner at Hakasan, which was absolutely outstanding. Be ready to spend some serious coin if you want to order freely, but well worth the splurge.
The hotel is just beautiful (perhaps a bit over the top for my taste) and you can stop here for lunch and after lunch walk down to the beach. Of the things to do in Abu Dhabi, I would place this right after the Shaykh Zayd Mosque. Now that the museums are opening (I have not visited them), I may...
Had a chance to visit Emirates Palace by booking afternoon tea during the december and there was big chrimsas tree which pulls all our attention, staff said its kind of a wolrd tallest chrimas tree with some gold, we had nice walk too, incredible palace. Recommending a visit
Emirates Palace was incredible. You walk in and immediately feel the beauty of it all. We had reservations for High Tea and it was amazing. I recommend making reservations for tea, prior to your visit. We loved the Emirates coffee...an experience in of itself. And one not to be missed. After tea, we had time to walk around for shopping...
The hotel lobby blew me away. Everything was made of gold and the floor was marbled. Even the cranes in the toilets were from gold. If you want to see a classy hotel, just come and see for yourself!

I won't be able to stay at the hotel and have a very limited time. I have a few questions.
1) Can I even get in without a reservation for hotel or restaurant?
2) What are the key places I should see in the hotel?
3) How much time do I need to see all the key attractions?
Is there a minimum charge you have to spent when having a coffee. If so does the charge also apply for children
I'm just packing for a week long stay at Emirates Palace, can anyone tell me, do i need to pack beach towels or are they provided poolside and beachside?
Silly question i know, but they can be quite heavy!
Thank you.
I will be visiting alone, dressed appropriately. Can I just walk in or do I need
to do something else? Also, is it far from the Novotel Hotel and the international
cruise terminal? And is it far from the Mosque. Thanks
How far away is this from the airport and how much would the taxi fare be?
See all questions

Journal of Bhutan Studies, Volume 34, Summer 2016
Guru Padmasambhava was born in fire monkey year, which occurs only once in 60-year cycle of the lunar calendar. For the first time, a conference was organized to commemorate the birth anniversary of Guru Padmasambhava. The Centre for Bhutan Studies and GNH Research in cooperation with the Centre for Escalation of Peace, Delhi organized this conference from 14 to 15 June, 2016, in Paro. It is envisaged to be held on a regional basis in South Asia.
As a unifying figure in South Asia, Guru Padmasambhava left artistic, cultural and spiritual legacies in the region. What are the common heritages and philosophy in South Asia associated with Guru? What are the significances of Guru's holy places? What can be deduced from the archaeological remains and ritual instruments related to Guru? This special issue discusses these kinds of questions and issues.
The scholarly presentations of the conference were allied with ritual and artistic events. 110 foot silk-scroll thangkha of the Guru Padmasambhava was unveiled in the courtyard of Paro Rabdey followed by masked and folk dances.
This issue contains selected papers presented in the conference. The Centre for Bhutan Studies would like to thank the Centre for Escalation of Peace (CEP), Delhi for funding the conference. The Centre would also like to thank influential media from India, Nepal and Bhutan for disseminating the event's importance.

1. Bhutan: Notes Concerning the Political Role of Kidu by Brian C. Shaw
The original Tibetan concept of kidu (skyid sdug1 or more informally kidu) has been variously considered as welfare, self-help and assistance. In the context of Bhutan, the concept has closely linked the moral authority of the monarch with the economic needs of the public.
The paper considers both the politicisation of kidu (the competition for political space and authority by politicians of the First Parliament, against the received authority of the monarchs) and the de-politicisation of kidu (by the monarchs, notably through land-grant authority reaffirmed in the 2008 Constitution, the establishment of the Kidu Foundation and in other practical ways). Kidu rights and the authority of the monarch is reviewed, with especial attention to the future prospects of either diminution or extension of these rights in the future, as the kingdom endeavours to establish "Democracy with Bhutan Characteristics."
2. Trend of Bhutan's Trade during 1907-26: Import by Ratna Sarkar and Indrajit Ray
It is logical to expect that quantitative and qualitative changes in Bhutan's export during the period of Ugyen Wangchuck should be corresponded by similar changes in her imports. For one thing, when a country's export grows over a longer period, the accumulation of foreign exchange in that country enables her to import more. Indeed, since both exports and imports, especially their growth and diversification, depend on the changes in the domestic economy (along with changes in the rest-of-the-world), in most cases do we observe simultaneous changes in both these fronts. The present article seeks to assess to what extent Bhutan's import changed during the years of the First Monarch.
3. Terms of Trade and Balance of Trade of Bhutan during 1907-26 by Ratna Sarkar and Indrajit Ray
Though exports and imports are important constituents of the aggregate demand of an economy, and hence the determinants of growth, welfare implication of foreign trade follows to a good extent from the terms of trade. In the trade literature, the concept of terms of trade is defined in many ways such as the quantity definition, the price definition and the income definition. In this study we adopt its price definition, i.e. the terms of trade of a country equals the ratio of her export and import price indices. Since such price indices are not readily available, those are calculated from estimated prices of individual export-import commodities. Before analyzing the terms of trade, therefore, we review the movements of import and export prices. Also important for an economy is the balance of trade that determines under the silver standard of currency (as practised in contemporary Bhutan) the flow of silver to and from the domestic economy, and hence the supply of money. This chapter, therefore, reviews also the balance of trade in Bhutan and along with it the change in the exchange value of Bhutan's currency in the contemporary period under the presumption that the balance of trade is functionally determined by devaluation/revaluation of domestic currency.
4. Assessment of Yam (Dioscorea spp.) Diversity at Community Level in Nangkor Gewog under Zhemgang Dzongkhag by Jambay Ugyen and Dr. Tulsi Gurung
Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is an annual or perennial climbing plant with edible underground tuber. It includes 600 species of which 50 to 60 are cultivated, or at least gathered, for food or pharmaceutical purposes. There are however only 10 species for human consumption and economically significant. In Bhutan, yam plays an integral part in socio-economic and cultural aspects. However, there is limited information on yam diversity in Bhutan. Therefore, this study aimed to assess domestic and wild yam species diversity, its socio-cultural importance to the communities and its contribution towards food security.
5. Macroeconomic Trends and Policy Implications: Evidence from Bhutan by Mashrur Khan and Matthew Robson
Bhutan has performed remarkably well with an average growth rate of 7.72 percent from 2004-2014. This growth is heavily fuelled by its strong hydropower sector, particularly the exports of hydropower, which have grown at an average rate of 18.1 percent over the same period. In recent years, hydropower capacity has been increased substantially, leading to higher exports and electricity generation in the country. In addition, the tourism sector has grown rapidly over the last decade, which largely contributed to the generation of revenue for the country.
Despite these successes, the country has experienced some setbacks, particularly in recent years. The current account deficit has been on the rise, which was mainly due to increasing hydropower-related imports to facilitate the installation of new hydropower plants. In addition, rapid credit growth has led to a consumption and housing boom, which contributed to large non-hydropower related imports. Consequently, the total reserves for the country as a percentage of total external debt has declined – reducing their ability to service debt – which is concerning since their external debt as a ratio of GDP has risen to over 80 percent in 2013-14 from around 55 percent in 2007- 08.
This paper focuses on the macroeconomic trends that Bhutan has experienced since the 1990s. The paper provides detailed graphs and tables on selected economic indicators, particularly on the budget, inflation and balance of payment estimates for the country.

GNH WF Method and Optimization of GNH Resources by Dr. Mukund M. Moharir
GNH Weightage Factor (WF) Method is a mathematical procedure useful in the following cases:
- To identify relative importance (weightage) the surveyed population is knowingly/unknowingly attaching to each surveyed Domain while answering the Cantril Ladder Questionnaire (Subjective Happiness Survey).
- To compute for every Domain optimum distribution of the current GNH budget and also of the added budget under various optimum allocation schemes.
- To compute the extra GNH budget required to enhance the current GNH to the desired value and to calculate optimum distribution of the extra budget amongst different Domains.
- To compute under various optimization schemes the new GNH number when the budget of some Domain(s) is changed by certain percentage.
- To identify Paradigm Shift (PS) and Prime Movers of Happiness (PMH) situations in the available survey data.
- To compute the change in GNH value when the surveyor uses his/her own WF numbers for the Domains.
- To eliminate the effect of arbitrary nature of GNH Index procedure deciding "who is happy and who is not".
- To identify Cantril Ladder GNH part not explained by GNH Index procedure.
The following two available survey data are used to illustrate WF Method procedures:
(1) Bhutan GNH survey data (Reference 1)
(2) Thailand GNH survey data (Reference 2).

1. Export Price of Electricity in Bhutan: The Case of Mangdechhu Hydroelectric Project by Sangay Chophel
There has been substantial cost escalation on the ongoing hydropower projects in Bhutan, exerting pressure on already ballooning national debt. This has raised concerns on whether the benefits of hydropower projects outweigh the costs and on the preciseness of its costing. Based on data available in the detailed project reports and the agreement signed between India and Bhutan, this paper examines the financial viability of Mangdechhu project by employing two different methods: cost-plus method and financial cost-benefit analysis. The results show that cost-plus method undervalues the total cost of the project. The impact of changes in several parameters and cost overrun on tariff is also analyzed in this paper.
2. Enhancing Bhutanese Rice in the Domestic Market through increased Production and Favorable Pricing Regime by Ngawang Chhogyel, Mahesh Ghimiray, Kencho Wangdue and Yadunath Bajgai
Rice (Oriza sativa L.) is one the most important food crops in Bhutan. Due to its national importance the Department of Agriculture (DoA) under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forests initiated technical interventions in the major rice growing dzongkhags (districts) to improve rice yield and production from 2008-2009. The aim of the program was to commercialize domestically produced rice through enhanced yield, production and rice value chain. The program involved increased investment for intensi ed promotion of higher yielding varieties of rice, farm mechanization, post harvest and marketing, capacity building, nutrient management and crop protection as the software component. The hardware part saw the constructions and renovations of many irrigation schemes and construction of rice processing units. As a result of the intensi ed interventions the productivity of rice yield has increased to 3.88 t/ha in 2013 from about 2.81 t/ha in 2009. Favourable pricing mechanism is essential for both farmers and the consumers although farmers want higher prices and the consumers the lower. To facilitate smooth trade the DoA has recommended prices for different varieties of paddy for farmers by maintaining reasonable margins besides associated costs. Therefore, adjusted farm-gate prices have been worked out so as to serve as the recommended paddy procurement prices or basis for calculation. The formal domestic rice trade has come to mainstream markets by involving the Food Corporation of Bhutan Limited. Due to the strategic interventions the domestically produced rice in circulation is estimated to be 255 t currently (as of June 2015) and it is expected to increase further with the prioritized investments, good pricing mechanism and policy support. In conclusion, the commercialization program brought about the increase in yield and overall production and has successfully main streamed trade of domestically produced rice in Bhutan.
3. The Role of Deliberative Mini-Publics in the Quest for Gross National Happiness in Bhutan by Gerard W. Horgan
Political participation is recognized as a component of Bhutan's multidimensional development framework, 'Gross National Happiness' (GNH). In recent years, Bhutan has instituted a conventional system of liberal democratic, representative democracy. However, this system has supplanted an earlier, indigenous system of village-based participatory democracy. This paper builds on the premise that, to be true to the goal of good governance encapsulated in GNH, Bhutan needs to embrace a deeper level of political participation than that embodied by representative democracy. The de cits of the new representative system are identi ed via the utilization of Lijphart's majoritarian versus consensual democratic framework. It is suggested that a form of 'deliberative polling' should be institutionalized as part of the parliamentary policy-making process, as a complement to the existing representative system.
4. Use of Social Media and Digital Technology from the Perspective of Citizen Engagement and Democratic Participation in the Works of Centre for Bhutan Studies & GNH Studies: A Positioning Paper by Dendup Chophel
Promotion of socio-economic and political dialogue, and engagement of citizens in the process of governance are essential features of a democracy. Public think tank organizations have a key role to play in this regard and thus, as the only state research organization, the Centre for Bhutan Studies & GNH Research (CBS) should be at the forefront of innovations in engaging with the public through policy dialogue by exploring various communication forums like social media. According to the Act for the Centre for Bhutan Studies (2001) by which it was established, the CBS is an autonomous government organization charged with conducting multi-disciplinary research into the history, culture, economy and policy of the country among others. It is mandated with promoting the culture of scholarship and public education through dissemination of timely and quality scholarly research ndings. It is also aimed at in uencing public policy by providing state institutions with informed and researched inputs. For these purposes, the CBS not only conducts independent research works, the results of which are published as scholarly books, but also organizes national and international conferences, public talks, promote collaboration with global research institutions and represent the country in various scholarly international forums to present the country's policy positioning. For example, in just the area of media and governance, the CBS has organized various conferences like the major international conference on "Media and Public Culture in Bhutan" (June 2006) and "Deepening and Sustaining Democracy in Asia" (October 2009).

1. Early Happiness Policy as a Government Mission of Bhutan: A Survey of the Bhutanese Unwritten Constitution from 1619 to 1729 by Michael Givel and Laura Figueroa
Modern Gross National Happiness in Bhutan contains nine domains including: standard of living, good governance, time use and balance, community vitality, cultural diversity and resilience, ecosystem diversity and resilience, health of the population, education, and psychological wellbeing which address modern policy issues. The nine domains also balance material and spiritual concerns in a holistic manner. However, were the nine domains related to happiness policy before and after Bhutan became a nation? The unwritten constitution of early Bhutan, includes Nga Chudruma of 1619, the Tsa Yig Chenmo of 1629, the first Legal Code of 1652, and updated Legal Code of 1729. Happiness policy in early Bhutan promoted a view of a wise ruler providing governmental support so citizens may become enlightened due to Mahayana Buddhism. Happiness policy in Bhutan has evolved from an early Buddhist focus to a range of factors that maintain Mahayana Buddhist traditions balanced with modern societal requirements.
2. Visions, Prophecies and Leadership: Oral Accounts of the Life and Death of Terton Drukdra Dorji by Thinley Jamtsho, Dendup Chophel and Sangay Thinley
This paper is based mainly on a review of literature of the subjects under consideration particularly with regard to three existing source materials which present firstly the general theory of Treasure tradition and the visionary masters and then a corroborative account of Terton Drukdra Dorji (gter ston 'brug sgra rdo rje, the main subject of this paper) and his entanglement with the Bhutanese powers in existing texts.
3. An Overview of Kurtöp Morphophonemics by Dr. Gwendolyn Hyslop
Kurtöp is an East Bodish (Tibeto-Burman) language of Bhutan that is still endangered as people shift from the village to centers of commerce outside of the Kurtöp-speaking region. While it has been described to some extent (e.g. Hyslop 2011) there has not been much attempt made to communicate findings of the language to outside fields. Specifically, this article presents an analysis of morphophonology, or sound changes conditioned by word formation, in Kurtöp.
4. Masked Dance of Sumthrang Mountain Deity by Gengop Karchung
Masked Dance of Mountain Deity (Tsän Cham) of Sumthrang Samdrup Chödzong in Ura, Bumthang is a unique performing art that has been inherited since the 15th century. When the 23rd 'Nyörab Jam'yang Drakpa Özer ('Jam-dbyang grags-pa 'od-zer; 1382–1442) planned to slip away to Tsari (Tibet) for meditation clandestinely, the Drak Tsän Dorje Dradül appeared and beseeched lama to stay at Sumthrang, simultaneously performing this masked dance along with four of his retinues. Consenting to the plea made by the deity, the lama then taught the dance to his disciples. The dance then became part of annual festival called Sumthrang Kangsöl held from 25th Day of 9th Month of the Bhutanese lunar calendar for 5 days. The dance is known by various names: Lha Cham (dance of god), Tsän Cham (dance of mountain deity), and Ta Cham (dance of horse) as the masked dancers ride horses. Today, some episodes of this dance is performed at Zhongmä lhakhang in Lhuntse Dzongkhag as this lhakhang was built by Jam'yang Drakpa Özer. This paper will try to give detailed information on this unique festival, especially the Tsän Cham as it is critically endangered. Further, it will also try to bring out the historical accounts of the lhakhang and other associated sites. This paper will be based on limited available manuscripts, historical publications and other written sources which will be further supplemented with the existing myths and legends that are available.

1. Traditional and Modern Understandings of Mental Illness in Bhutan: Preserving the Benefits of Each to Support Gross National Happiness by Joseph D. Calabrese and Dr Chencho Dorji
The pursuit of appropriate mental health treatment in Bhutan must bring together and balance the need for the most advanced and appropriate medical and psychotherapeutic interventions with the need to avoid the disruption of very useful cultural traditions that are already in place in Bhutanese communities. A crucial question, in view of this priority, is: which conditions are modern psychiatric and psychological treatments the best for and which conditions are adequately addressed with traditional approaches, including traditional medicine (gSo-ba Rig-pa), shamanic ritual treatment, or Buddhist rituals and practice?
In this paper, the authors approach this question as clinicians who have worked with Bhutanese psychiatric patients and as researchers of international mental health and traditional healing practices. The goal of the paper is to view mental health and mental illness in Bhutan through the lens of Medical Anthropology (with its broad cross-cultural perspective), in terms of their clinical training and practice in Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry, and in terms of Bhutan's Gross National Happiness policy and the related idea of "development with values."
2. Suicide Trends in Bhutan from 2009 to 2013 by Kuenzang Lhadon
This paper focuses on the increasing trend of suicide in Bhutan over a period of five years from 2009-2013, and argues that there is a need of immediate attention from the government or any other relevant organization to set up a helpline, or to put in place any strategy to prevent/reduce it. For a small country like Bhutan, an average annual suicide growth rate of 9.4 percent is an alarmingly high one. A descriptive analysis of this time series data is used to generate comparison of suicide cases by region, gender, occupation and age group to identify which of the groups need the most attention.
3. Ahom-Bhutan Relations with Specific Reference to Royal Bhutanese Embassy Visiting Ahom Capital in 1801 by J. N. Phukan
This paper is confined to the period when the Ahom power came into contact with Bhutan. This happened towards the beginning of the seventeenth century when the Ahom kingdom annexed Kamrup and Darrang to the north of which lay the territory of Bhutan.
Thereafter, for more than a hundred years the relations with Bhutan were primarily dealt with by the Darrang Raja who was made a tributary Raja by the Ahom king. However, whenever required, the Raja was assisted by Ahom force to deal with situation.
Towards the end of the eighteenth century, there were troubles in the Ahom kingdom. Among these were the Moamaria uprising that spread even to lower Assam. The rebellious prince of Darrang Krishna Narayan with his supporters took the help of Burendazes, mercenary soldiers from Bengal. When Capt. Welsh came to Assam to take them back, many of them with Krishna Narayan took shelter in the bordering areas of Bhutan and created troubles there.
Bhutanese authorities made appeal to the Barphukan of Guwahati. To ascertain the situation he sent an embassy to Bhutan in 1801. In return, the King of Bhutan sent a royal embassy to the Ahom court that arrived at Jorhat, the Ahom capital in 1802. The envoys were well received by the King and the Prime Minister. They brought many presents that were valuable at that time. The Ahom and the Prime Minister also sent valuable presents to the Bhutan King.
4. Estimating the Gender Gap of Adults' Education and Health in Bhutan by Chhimi Dem
Several studies in developing countries suggest that narrowing the gender gap in education and health has both economic and social benefits. Bhutan is an important country to study gender because, traditionally and by law, women and men enjoy equal status. This paper explores the gender gap in formal education and mental and physical health among adults in Bhutan.
The 2010 cross-sectional survey data collected for Gross National Happiness (GNH) Indicators by the Centre for Bhutan Studies (CBS) in all the 20 districts of Bhutan (n=6510 individuals) was used. It regressed formal education and various indicators of health against gender, region, age, income, and religion. Then the differences in levels of schooling and health between women and men in the eastern region, which is reputed to be the most remote and least developed region are examined.
The gender gap persists. Men have 27% more years of schooling than women, 4.80 fewer reported sick days during the previous 30 days, 1.63 fewer negative emotions, and a 10% lower probability of reporting mental distress than women. Men in the eastern region are 6% less likely to be educated than women of their same region. However, men in the eastern region are 7% less likely to report having a stressful life than women of their own region.
Despite the tradition of gender equality and the laws supporting gender equity in Bhutan, this study finds that women lag behind men in schooling and health. The country needs to implement policies to narrow the gender gap.

Yeah, a few.
A few hints...
*a male BHer (I know there are a few, but this one I actually like... lol)
*she's planning her wedding
*she likes a couple of silly NZ boys
*I don't send her hate mail (lol)
*she once made me really angry in a thread about people being jerks at me in a Maccas carpark
*I find her motherly and lovely, and she's recently sent her eldest off to uni interstate
*she loves David Fisher and works her backside off
Maybe some more, but I remember you guys off the top of my head at the moment.
*she now has 3 kids and she reckons her hubby is spunkier than her - I think she's beautiful herself
*She uses old-people names for her kids on BH. I am jealous of how she can pull off orange hair (I will never stop going on about it... lol... it's amazing).

Sony buys out Ericsson half of partnershipPocket-lint
Big mobile news has hit as the Sony Ericsson partnership comes to an end; Sony has decided to buy out long time mobile phone partners Ericsson.
After 10 years in business together the two will part ways, with Sony paying Ericsson over 1.05 billion euros for the remaining 50 per cent stake in the company.
Sony is apparently hoping the move will make it more competitive in the mobile business space, Sony would be rightly jealous of Samsung's current foothold in mobile phones - a direct competitor in other areas of consumer technology.
In the press release, a statement reads, "This acquisition makes sense for Sony and Ericsson, and it will make the difference for consumers". This benefit should mainly come through a new focus, not only on the hardware side but through added content sold through the PlayStation Network - Sony's decent market share in televisions and laptops now being joined by, what it hopes, a greater mobile phone and tablet slice of the pie.
The deal is due to reach its conclusion by the end of January 2012.
Will this help Sony in the mobile computing space? Let us know in the comments.
