We love Nagoya! They have delicious food and the best pink sauce! The chefs are always fun and the sushi is always great and fresh.
They have the BEST sushi.....and their combination plates are really good, too. Not too pricey, but not cheap either.
for a mid-sized town this is good sushi. the Nagoya roll is my favorite. In larger towns the sushi bar is always the place to sit but not at Nagoya. I would love to sit at the sushi bar and interact with the chefs, have them make suggestions and maybe give me a sample of something I've never had like...
Nagoya has been in this location since about 2000 and expanded their footprint several times to accommodate the crowds and answer local competition. We haven't been to this location in a long while, so we decided to make it a late Lunch destination mid week. The Service was great and the food arrived quickly. Our Lunch was nothing to write...
Atmosphere - dark and dingy. Tables sticky. Dishes and bowls chipped.
Service - not enough staff. 3 servers running around without any organization. Waitress never stopped by except to deliver food. Had to flag down other servers to get drinks refilled. Asked waitress for take-out boxes and she never brought them, had to ask another server.
Food - bland and...
We love going to Nagoya with friends. Great sushi, delicious hibachi. Only Japanese in the area (that I've found) that offers an oshibori to its customers. Try the Nagoya roll!
Nagoya has some of the best sushi around. Try the Nagoya Roll! It's amazing! They also have really good hibachi fried rice. :)
Our party of 6 adults ended up here after our first-choice restaurant turned out to be closed on Sunday night. Collectively we had the chicken, scallop, shrimp, salmon and beef hibachi dinners (which came with miso soup and salads). Additionally, for appetizers we had edamame, vegetable tempura, and chicken tempura, all of which were very good. I don't regret not...
This is some of the best hibachi around. The food great, the atmosphere is good for business or pleasure and the price is reasonable.
I am only giving this place 4 stars bc I thought it was a little untidy when I was there. Other than that, I'd definitely come back!
Long story:
We were craving sushi and this was the closest to our hotel. I ordered my usual favorites: rainbow roll, Miami roll, vegetable roll, and the shrimp tempura roll. I ordered the...

Hello, we enjoyed our stay in Barcelona. The apartment was nice but it looked a lot more homely on the website. In the description it said there was international television however on arrival we were told there is only spanish channels. It was a little bit dusty and some of the crockery was quite dirty but overall a good stay.

As Mexico's homebuilders wrangle over restructuring agreements with bondholders, the blame game is fierce
Homex had worked to avert default in the previous months. In
April, it sold its stake in two prisons to Carlos
Slim's IDEAL and Grupo Financiero Inbursa for four
billion pesos. It also took out a bridge loan under a new
government loan guarantee program.
But that wasn't enough.
After missing the interest payment, the company faced a
series of ratings downgrades, as well as a lawsuit by Barclays
and Credit Suisse for $70 million for terminating derivative
The builder hired JPMorgan to advise it on its strategic
Shortly thereafter, two more homebuilders,
Corporación Geo and Desarrollos Urbanos (Urbi), joined
Homex in a string of defaults as they struggled with heavy debt
loads and a changing industry.

OK,OK, you probably think I am a slacker. It's been super busy at work, in a good way. My team is getting to know our staffing leaders in our global development centers. There's a cascade of work that happens from there:
-Assessing their needs for leads, research and training
-Developing offerings that meet the needs of multiple development centers
-Creating a project calendar so that we don't over-burden ourselves and allow for time to do proactive, long-term research
-Figuring out how we measure our work (it's not about the numbers on my team) and developing surveys
-Writing SLAs for our work (on the agenda this week)
And you know, after that, we have to actually do the work (which we have already started quietly). Last week, my head was spinning and I was in super-productivity mode. Same goes for this week. And this all left little time for blogging. Oh well.
Another thing that kept me from blogging, believe it or not, has been the coverage of the political conventions. I bet they actually caused a lot of blogging for other people. I've had a very strong personal reaction. I'm straining to keep it to myself. I really don't want to lose readers that feel they can't identify with me because we have differing political beliefs (same goes for religion. Fashion? That's fair game). Holding this in has almost been like a clog in the blog drain. Nothing's getting past it. I'm gonna Drano that sucker out of there and get back to blogging.
I get so caught up in my "other" work, that I forget that blogging is part of my job as well. It doesn't feel like work.
Some blog posts to come: interesting profiles of people at Microsoft (I swear, they are really interesting…I am a tough audience and I liked them) and some info about the development centers we've got humming around the world.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or the characters of Naruto, they belong to their respective owner.
This Day
This day is the day I dread the most. Not because of the noise or the children of the village running around with bags looking for candy. It's the fact that they have a festival to on the day Kyuubi attacked the village. It's a whole day to celebrate the people who have died protecting this village from a huge and evil monster.
They hate me, you know, the villagers. I'm not Kyuubi. Why can't they see I'm nothing like him? They shout and threaten me on this day. A day I should be happy about.
For you see today is my birthday. It's more of a secret. No one actually tells me 'Happy Birthday'. I've never told anyone, anyways. I stay inside on this day.
"Naruto get down here. The festival is today!" Sakura's voice. I look out my window. Eight of the Rookie Nine are standing outside.
"I don't think so. I think I'm sick." I make an excuse. I can't go out. The villagers can't see me. Next think I know, I'm dragged out of my apartment (house thing) and I'm headed to the hospital. My friends bombard me with question after question. I don't really answer. The stares I'm getting, my friends are oblivious, are of hate and disgust. They don't shout or threaten or beat now. They see I'm with a lot of people. Most notably they see I am with higher class villagers. Sakura, Ino, Sasuke, and Hinata come from very well known families.
At the hospital, I am ushered into a room, alone, by an attendant. I just sit there. After a few minutes, someone comes into the room. Of all people, I see Gaara come in. He's here for a meeting between the kage and was in the hospital checking out Kohona technology. I greet him well and he asks if I am sick. I say not really. He smiles, a rare thing to see, and walks out of the room.
"One more thing, Naruto," he says. "Happy Birthday." I am caught off guard, but I thank him. He gets it. He gets it more than anyone. He knows it's my birthday and I'm happy that someone actually told me. The nurses outside the room refuse to go into a room with a monster. They send a young girl in, frightened.
"I'm not sick. I need you to tell my friends that I should stay in bed for the rest of the day." I said in calmly. She answered she could do that. I got up to go to my friends. They said that they wished I could go to the festival with them. I'm glad I don't have to. They walk me home. Sakura, Sasuke, Hinata, Kiba, and Ino come into the apartment with me. They had never actually seen the place. It was not dirty, just empty. I didn't get much money. They looked at the bookcase which was stuffed with everything I practically owned. I offered them something to drink and went next door to a very nice old lady who had an ice machine. I came back after a few minutes to find them holding a piece of paper: my birth certificate.
"Your birthday is today?" asked Sakura.
"Yeah guess it is." I try to laugh. The tension is thick and I want to leave. Rather, I want them to leave.
"Fifteen years ago from today?" Sakura asked again.
"Yeah" A smile is plastered on my face. They face me.
"The day of the Kyuubi attack?" Sakura asked.
"Uh-huh" My answer. Did they know?
"So you're like a miracle child! Oh my Naruto you need to go to the festival. They don't know so it would be amazing to know something good came from something bad!" Sakura was happy? They were all happy? What the hell?
"Um..no…" So they don't know. They tried to drag me to the festival grounds. People glared at me. I don't want to be here. Tents of goodies are everywhere to be bought. Finally a man speaks up, right before we get to the grounds.
"Why is the monster here?" My friends are confused. I get free and run around to the back of one of the tents. They follow me there.
"Why did that man call you a monster?" Sasuke asked.
"You know the story of the fourth hokage and how he saved the village. He had the put the Kyuubi in a vessel. He couldn't kill the Kyuubi. So he sacrificed his son, a newborn born that day, and put Kyuubi in him." I finished. I try to stay calm, but I didn't want to tell them. More importantly, I could hear a mob. My friends were shocked.
Their shock was nothing compared to the shock I got when someone from the mob blasted a jutsu into my heart.

Clonal Growth In Dry Grasslands

BeschreibungThe capability of a large part of vascular plant species to reproduce sexually and vegetatively plays an important role in many ecosystems. However, the role of clonality in structuring plant communities and costs possibly related to clonal growth are not fully understood. In this study I established trade-offs related to vegetative spread and sexual reproduction for seven congeneric phalanx and guerrilla species-pairs. The extensive spacer network of guerrilla species reduced their investment in generative reproduction on the ramet- as well as on the population level. Furthermore, I showed that traits related to morphological attributes of clonal growth may help to predict occurrence and abundance of plant species in dry grasslands. Finally, the influence of site conditions and nutrient availability on clonal traits was clarified. Higher nutrient availability favours species capable of extensive lateral spread, while nutrient deprivation seems to favour compact architectures. In summary, processes and patterns related to vegetative reproduction may, thus, play a vital role in driving species coexistence in dry grassland communities.
PortraitHans Pfestorf studied Geoecology at the university of Potsdam, where he specialised in the field of vegetation ecology and nature conservation. Currently he works on linking belowground herbivory with vascular plant diversity and species traits in a PhD project.

The third man in Yvonne's life and father of Joseph, 7, was "definitely working class" and it was his uninhibited lust for fun, his emotional openness and "towering, illuminating" sexuality which were the pull this time. Yvonne explains: "I felt completely at ease with him and I felt more classy, more educated than him - my own working-class origins were thoroughly blurred by this time - and that was a relief after so often feeling inadequate before." But here, too, their differences got in the way and they separated. Yvonne says: "What I learned was just how much class does seem to have a meaning when you choose a partner."
Yvonne's attempts to find a match where class seemed, as she had always hoped and assumed "at best an interest, or otherwise unimportant" may be extreme, but the significance of place in the social scale when people fall in love is a popular theme these days. The much-publicised films Titanic and The Woodlanders are both pivoted on the impossibility of love from different sides of the tracks. When Madonna had her daughter Lourdes, a great deal was made of the fact that the father was her personal trainer, with the implication that she had coupled down. Last week, Sharon Stone married Phil Bronstein and although nobody has talked family lineage, in America, where social mobility has as much to do with what you earn as who your parents are, her pounds 60 million a year to his pounds 55,000 is tantamount to a member of the hoi polloi marrying into the upper echelons.
At the Islington Rosemary Branch Theatre, Gilly Fraser's hard-hitting play about a cross-class relationship, A Bit of Rough, which she wrote in the Seventies, has been brought back precisely because the central faultline in the relationship between Ray, a working class market trader and middle-class Julie, who works in an art gallery, has resonance today. Fraser, who comes from a working-class area of Leeds and has written many plays in which the clash between class expectations is a central feature, says: "We delude ourselves if we pretend love conquers class. When the crunch comes, different classes can be like another species to each other and that hasn't changed." Fraser was a founder writer of EastEnders, as well as belonging to the clique of feminist writers and dramatists in the Seventies which included Fay Weldon, Caryl Churchill, and Carol Hayman. In A Bit of Rough, actors Graham Martin and Victoria Willings play out the unravelling of a relationship built on sex, made dangerous and erotic by the fragile fantasy each has of the other, finally leaving the blood and gore of expectations and aspirations that cannot be sustained under stress.
Justine Fear, 29, a psychologist now working on a masters degree, lives with 35-year-old Laurence McMahon, who left school with no qualifications and runs a market stall. She raises arched eyebrows above large blue eyes in a pretty, refined face at hearing how closely the characters in A Bit of Rough mirror herself and Laurence. But she is very clear that, within their partnership, the difference in class is a strength, and that they have achieved an emotional equality and closeness that is not the stuff of Fraser's play. Justine explains: "Laurence is very up front and emotionally articulate. In relationships with middle-class men, I've found difficulties with emotion and honesty. But the fact that Laurence is very intelligent is as important as anything. He doesn't feel threatened by my education and although he may not read the books I do or discuss things in quite the way I do with my friends, we have found a great deal of common interest and we communicate as equals when we talk about these. And he makes me laugh, because he's a great joker. The other day in Marks and Spencer, two women were looking at G-strings and he said to them: 'I wouldn't buy those, they're seconds - look, they've got no arse in them'. I can't imagine the men of my own class I've been with being so uninhibited. In fact, too often with middle-class men there's a cautiousness about whether they are getting into something suitable, a kind of cost benefit analysis."
Yet, however wonderful the attraction of opposites may be in private, it can be harder to handle with friends and family. And yes, Justine admits, there have been times when she's taken Laurence to a drinks party with her circle and noticed him feeling an outsider, becoming tense. Nor does he like the smart gym she attends, preferring the "steam" at Ilford. But if some might see these as danger signals, she sees them merely as things to be compromised over.
Too often, parental ambitions can be the problem. Martha, a 25-year-old lawyer doing articles, had a passionate affair with a car mechanic, but her parents' dislike of him eventually broke the relationship. She says: "They were so hostile to him, because he threatened all their dreams for me, and whenever we were at my home, I felt miserable for him. But in the end, I didn't want to be alienated from my family, so I ended the affair." Whereas another woman, who fell in love with a window cleaner, incurred her father's disapproval, broke it off and felt so miserable that they got together again, married and had children. They are "blissfully happy" together, she says. Justine and Laurence are lucky, because both sets of parents take the line that whatever makes them happy is fine. But isn't this an outmoded discussion? Surely in today's world, caught in thrall to a vision of a classless society, such distinctions are unimportant? Not so, says Michael Argyle, author of The Psychology of Social Class. "The indications for a cross-class relationship are not all that good, especially if the wife is higher class than the husband. When it's the other way around, there seems to be less problem, with the wife moulding herself to fit into his world." But these relationships have a better chance of success when the couple share leisure activities and interests. On the whole, people do not marry out of their social class in Britain. Nor is it promoted as a good idea. From the glossy pages of Tatler and Harper's to the print-outs of computer dating firms, the emphasis is on like coupling with like. Hence, when a duke marries a chorus girl, a debutante falls for a drains inspector, it hits the headlines. Look at the furore when Marina Ogilvy, cousin of the Queen, married photographer Paul Mowatt, a former comprehensive schoolboy, no less, declaring famously: "Nobody cares about background any more"; when Lady Alice Douglas, the daughter of the Marquess of Queensberry married former soldier and ex-prisoner Simon Melia; when Paul Hill of the Guildford Four married Courtney Kennedy, the daughter of Senator Robert Kennedy. And look at the Schadenfreude which follows in the press when these relationships fail.
So what are inter-class relationships about? Psychotherapist Diana Laschelles says: "Sex may be particularly exciting, because partners sense they are breaking taboos or choosing someone whose experimentation or lack of inhibition makes them seem dangerous. They have not found this by mixing with like." But if this is the most important thing, the relationship may hit trouble when passion dulls down. Or, Laschelles suggests, "it can be an Oedipal thing, an attempt to be as far removed as possible from the mother or father, because someone who resembles them may feel somehow incestuous."
Most importantly, says Vivienne Gross, Clinical Director of the Institute of Family Therapy, "People need to think what the actual experience of crossing cultures will be when they marry out of their class. For instance, how will the person from the upper class feel if their partner is rejected or insulted by friends or family, and equally, on the lower class side, there can be real pressure that the family will feel they can't entertain appropriately or fear that they may be snubbed for their values. These are not small things, but they can certainly be overcome if couples confront them and work out how they will deal with them."
Cross-class relationships where people commit themselves for the long haul, and are helped to make a go of it, are the litmus test of how genuinely an integrated and tolerant society we are. Elena Anna Ford, millionairess great granddaughter of Henry Ford and plumber Joseph Daniel Rippolone, are said to be fine, as are Rosie Pearson, daughter of Viscount Cowdray, who married Rastafarian musician Palma Taylor. Equally, inter-class liaisons among more ordinary mortals are often not even remarked upon if they work, but are being accepted as part of the melting pot of love and sex and the whole damned thing.

Keith & Fulldraw,
I've hunted Unit 23 the past five weekends and haven't seen hide nor hair of any bear. I was down in the Turkey Creek area this weekend and found some old sign but didn't call anything in. I've been all over the unit hunting from sun up to sun down. Saw rattler and caught on bobcat on the game cam.
I am very discouraged and don't know what else to do. I'll have to reevaluate my typical bear hunting method and locations.

Hometown: London.
The lineup: Joe Worricker (vocals).
The background: Joe Worricker is one of the hottest new male singers on the block, although you could be forgiven, if you heard him on the radio, for assuming he was one of the hottest new female singers around. He can sound like a croaky, deep-voiced soul girl, especially on the song We Hug in Bed, which is a retro, horn-drenched affair worthy of Mark Ronson – it could almost be Amy Winehouse after a night on the fags and the lash.
Some are comparing Worricker to Antony Hegarty, but We Hug In Bed is a lot straighter than Antony and the Johnsons' material. Then again, on another tune, Littleman, he does have some of Hegarty's husky androgyny and bluesy effeminacy. It's hard to call where Worricker is going to be positioned by his label, Rough Trade. They got him to sing an Arthur Russell track for a tribute album, and the music – fluid and febrile future-funk, as you'd expect – proved more of a stretch for the new soul wunderkind. And another number, Finger-Waggers, has a more modern R&B sound and production – you could imagine Trevor Horn doing something lavish and grand with it. Talking of 80s avant-dance gods, the 20-year-old Londoner has also been collaborating with Green Gartside of Scritti Politti.
But, like we say, we're not sure if Rough Trade are going to make him pursue that sort of direction, not when they did so well with Bernard Butler's Duffy in Memphis thing. And let's not get too carried away with the kid's age. Boy George, whose voice isn't that different to Worricker's, was 20 when he started, too. But George was a radical proposition, musically, lyrically, and in terms of image: writing frothy pop-soul tunes that re-explored the lexicon of love was, in the wake of punk, a revolutionary move, while his cross-dressing on Top of the Pops had a glam-ish subversive quality.
Worricker, who is gay, is way safer than that. We're not sure whether he intends to play with his appearance at all. In fact, he looks like a regular scruffy-lite indie kid, although he is wearing a pink babygrow in one picture (true). Critical responses to him have been equally predictable: a lot of his early reviews are of the awestruck, can't-believe-he's-so-authentically-jazzy-and-bluesy variety, as though mere reproduction is an achievement in itself. Still, if Worricker is happy to occupy the same 60s soul-pastiche territory currently mined by Eli "Paperboy" Reed, fine. But we'd rather he took that voice somewhere completely different.
The buzz: "That voice! Not just the incredible low register, with its trad-jazz intonations, but the fact that it emanates from the willowy 20-year-old kid. Audience jaws visibly drop when he opens his mouth and starts to sing" – Mojo.
The truth: This mannered mimicry might impress a Cowell, but a quarter-century after Culture Club's blue-eyed funk and Motown homages, we're not quite such pushovers.
Most likely to: Pray like Aretha Franklin.
Least likely to: Write too many songs to remember.
What to buy: The Joe Worricker EP is released by Rough Trade on 14 June.
File next to: Antony Hegarty, Eli "Paperboy" Reed, Boy George, Helen Terry.

Mumbai, Oct 27: The BSE Sensex zoomed by 1683.19 points, or 9.59 per cent, to close at an all time high of 19243.17 during the week ended October 26.
Similarly, The S&P CNX Nifty index of NSE also surged by 487 points, or 9.33 per cent, to touch a new peak at 5702.30 in the week.
Brokers said a partial breather provided by Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) at the onset of the week with respect to Participatory Notes (PNs), boosted the bourses.
Expectations of a further cut in interest rate by the US Federal Reserve also aided the rally on the domestic bourses last week. The Sensex gained during all the five trading sessions in the week.
SEBI, last Thursday, had put restrictions on the issue of participatory notes (PN) and directed some existing PN positions to be wound up within 18 months.
SEBI, on October 23, said sub-accounts which intend to covert into foreign institutional investor status have to send their letter of intent to the regulator within 24 hours. SEBI later said that all the 20 PN issuing FII sub-accounts have expressed intent to convert into foreign institutional investor (FII) status. There are 34 PN issuing entities in the country, of which some are already FIIs.
The BSE Mid Cap index rose 682.08 points or 9.42 per cent to 7920.66 and BSE Small Cap index rose 750.63 points or 8.53 per cent to 9550.95 during the week. Both these indices underperformed Sensex.
BSE Auto index was up 6.04 per cent at 5616.97, BSE IT was down 1.07 per cent at 4635.58 and BSE (Oil&Gas) was up 8.41 per cent at 11103.46.
BSE Bankex was up 16.25 per cent at 10273.53, followed by BSE Capital Goods index up 20.16 per cent at 18540.15, BSE Metal up 15.64 per cent at 16744.56, BSE Realty up 10.68 per cent at 10020.75.
The BSE Sensex rose by 54.01 points or 0.31 per cent at 17613.99 last Monday. The market bounced back after an initial slump caused by worries about the US economic outlook. While the BSE Sensex managed to post gains, the S&P CNX Nifty settled with losses.
Volatility was high due to alternate bouts of buying and selling.
European and Asian markets were trading lower on worries about the US economic outlook.
The BSE Sensex posted its biggest ever single day gain of 878.85 points or 4.99 per cent at 18492.84 on October 23. The market spurted after the market regulator Securities Exchange Board of India, after trading hours on October 22, provided partial breather to FIIs with respect to proposed restrictions on use of participatory notes and said it would speed up regulatory clearance for foreigners keen to invest transparently.
The BSE Sensex closed higher by 20.07 points, or 0.11 per cent, at 18512.91 on October 24. The Sensex posted gains as investors flocked to blue-chip shares, inspired by robust set of results posted by them for the quarter ended September 2007. All this came on the back of volatility, which remained high ahead of the expiry of October 2007 derivatives contracts on October 25.
The BSE Sensex gained 257.98 points, or 1.39 per cent, at 18770.89 on October 25. The market settled on a firm note on buying in index pivotals. However, trade was choppy towards the fag end of the day ahead of expiry of October 2007 derivatives contracts and ahead of SEBI's board meeting to take a decision on recently announced proposals to curb foreign inflows through the route of participatory notes. European markets and Asian markets were trading with gains.
The Sensex surged by 472.28 points, or 2.52 per cent, at 19243.17, an all-time closing high on October 26. The market surged on renewed buying interest in index pivotals following healthy rollover of derivative positions from October 2007 to November 2007 on October 25.
Global cues were mixed. The market shrugged off concerns arising from possible FII sales after market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India put restrictions on issue of participatory notes (PN) after trading hours on October 25, and directed some existing PN positions to be wound up within 18 months.
SEBI chairman M Damodaran said on October 25 that there was no change in the draft regulations announced by the regulator last week on participatory notes (PNs). The draft proposals announced on October 16 had put restrictions on use of PNs. Mr Damodaran said Sebi would review the position on the issue from time to time.
While announcing rules to curb issue of participatory notes (PNs) by FIIs, SEBI on October 25 announecd that PNs can now be issued only to foreign entities which are 'regulated' in their respective jurisdiction and not to those that are merely 'registered' in the jurisdiction as was the norm earlier. This will mean that many hedge funds that are not regulated in their home country will find it difficult to invest in the Indian market.
Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram said on October 26 that the government wanted to moderate capital inflows without hurting growth of the country's economy. The Minister's comments came a day after SEBI's tightening of investment rules for unregistered FIIs.
ICICI Bank, the country's largest private sector bank in terms of net profit, rose 15.66 per cent at Rs 1184.45. Its net profit rose 32.7 per cent to Rs 1002.60 crore on 41 per cent growth in total income at Rs 9588.41 crore in Q2 September 2007 over Q2 September 2006.

Reliance Fresh sells food, fruits and vegetables and consumer products.
India's largest pharma company by sales, Ranbaxy Laboratories (RLL) gained by 2.06 per cent at Rs 425.15. Ranbaxy on October 22, said it had received approval in Canada to manufacture and market Ran-Lisinopril 5, 10 and 20 miligram oral tablets from Health Canada, Therapeutic Products Directorate (TPD).

Its net profit rose by 7.19 per cent to Rs 417.15 crore on 10.75 per cent rise in sales to Rs 1948.24 crore in Q2 September 2007 over Q1 June 2006. The company declared the results on October 23. The company revised upwards earnings as well revenue guidance for FY 2008 (year ending 31 March 2008), both in rupee terms and dollar terms.
Reliance Energy, the country's second largest power utility company by sales, rose by 25.26 per cent to Rs 1,670. The stock's rise follows chairman Anil Ambani's briefing to the media on October 23 that Reliance Power will be valued nearly two times its holding company, Reliance Energy, after the mega initial public offer.
India's leading bank by net profit State Bank of India jumped 24.97 per cent to Rs 2083.95. On October 23, SBI Life Insurance Company posted net profit of Rs 14.09 crore for the first half year ended September 30 with an 80 per cent increase in its total premium collection.

Tata Steel's net profit rose 8.11 per cent to Rs 1190.83 crore on 11.41 per cent rise in total income to Rs 4879.41 crore in Q2 September 2007 over Q2 September 2006.

Favorite R Name: Poll: Part 2
I previously made a thread stating my favorite R names for boys and asking for opinions.
These were the names on the list:
Rafferty (floodtide, abundance, prosperity)
Rainier (wise army))
Raphael (God has healed)
Raymond (wise protector)
Roscoe (deer forest)
Rudolph (famous wolf)
Rune (secret)
Rupert (bright fame)
I've been able to eliminate:
Raymond (because of: Everybody loves Raymond)
Rudolph (because of: the Reindeer)
Rune (because: it's apparently a fathers name)
Stil in the Poll:
Rafferty (jovial and happy. It would be strong young and old.)
Rainier (ADORE. I feel strength in Rainier.)
Raphael (I'm not that religious. It feels perhaps too close to God.)
Roscoe (It doesn't feel substantial enough at times. Reminds me of Costco.)
Rupert (It feels like the weaker Robert.)
These are all my opinions and views on the names. My views have been changing more recently because of the comments from everyone. Please don't be offended.
Please vote again. Thanks.

Southern Six-Pack: Turn Up the Volume
Maybe it's because all of those SXSW tweets are making us jealous, or maybe the gorgeous weather here in Oxford has put a spring (get it?) in our step. Whatever the reason, we've dedicated today's six pack to the glorious intersection of food and music. When we did the same thing for our 2009 symposium, the results were slightly more erudite. But it's Friday—not to mention spring break in these parts—so just kick back and enjoy.
1. My heroes have always been...immortalized on toast? It's Willie Nelson like you've never seen him before.
2. Did you think we had forgotten about barbecue since last year's symposium? Silly otters! We were reminded of this classic (from the late, great, Mississippian Jim Henson) while playing on the iPad last week with a 3-year-old potlikker-ette. She started singing along by the second verse. You will, too.
3. The obituary of Mr. Harry Stamps of Long Beach, Mississippi, has been making the Internet rounds for almost a week now. PLEASE do yourself a favor and read it if you haven't done so already. (As for the musical tie-in, we think you'll agree that Harry's life story is a country hit waiting to happen.) Then, raise a martini glass of buttermilk in his honor.
4. Chef/author/provocateur Eddie Huang takes his inspiration from hip-hop, as he told us at the 2012 Southern Foodways Symposium. Next week, he'll return to the University of Mississippi campus for the Oxford Conference for the Book. If you're in town, our director John T. Edge interviews Eddie on March 22 at 6 pm at Off-Square Books. Eddie will probably take the stage, as he is wont to do, to the strains of Kanye West's "Can't Tell Me Nothin'." (see above video)
Note: We can neither confirm nor deny the presence of Will "Bonnie Prince Billy" Oldham and Zack Galifianakis as back-up dancers when Eddie appears at Off-Square Books. But for what it's worth, we think the three of them would get along swimmingly.
5. It's an oldie by Internet standards (written in 2010), but such a goodie: Francis Lam reflects on "What Biggie Smalls' Lyrics Taught Me About Food." Now, go fix yourself some cheese eggs and Welch's grape.
6. Despite their Hoboken roots, indie rockers Yo La Tengo are such big fans of Prince's Hot Chicken in Nashville that the spicy stuff has inspired not one, but two of their songs. (True story: The band's lawyers wouldn't give Joe York permission to use either of these songs in his film about Prince's. Not that our feelings are hurt or anything.)

"The same group of hackers that caused the power outage across several regions in Ukraine last Christmas holidays might have once again shut down power supply in northern Ukraine during the weekend. According to Ukrainian energy provider Ukrenergo, a cyber attack on Kyiv's power grid may have caused the power outages in the country on Saturday, December 17, near midnight. The blackout affected the northern part of Kiev, the country's capital, and surrounding areas, Ukrenergo Director Vsevolod Kovalchuk explained in a post on Facebook."

The second recipe from my Christmas Hamper is this condiment I found in Steph Berg's blog. It is great to season any asian dish such as stir-fries, curries or soups.
(Source: Steph Berg)
24 Kaffir Lime leaves, roughly shredded (I only used 10)
20g Sichuan Peppercorns
2 and 1/2 tsp Chinese Five Spice
140g Sea Salt
- Place all the ingredients in the TM bowl and dry roast for 5 min, 100C, speed 1
- Remove lid and allow to cool for 30 minutes
- Set dial to closed lid position and Turbo a couple of times until coarsely crushed (I did it several times until fine as I prefer it that way)
- Place in air-tight containers. Best used within 3 months.

Islamabad, Aug.28 (ANI): While the Pakistan government is struggling to collect funds for flood hit people, cricketer turned politician Imran Khan has been working extensively towards this end.
In his efforts to reach out to the needy ones, Imran would be leading nearly 300 trucks full of flood relief materials to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Imran's convoy of flood relief, dubbed 'the caravan of hope', would begin its journey to flood affected areas of Peshawar, Malakand, Mardan, Dera Ismail Khan and other inundated areas from Islamabad on Monday (August 30).
Imran's party, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI), has claimed that its chief has colleted over 20 crore rupees for flood affected people, The Nation reports.
PTI officials said Imran has prepared a massive program to help his fellow countrymen, as the administration has failed completely to provide relief. (ANI)

Softly does it: the Markus Lupfer woman never sleeps, and Autumn / Winter 2016 caters for her 24 hour lifestyle without compromising on polish. A quirky sophisticate, she glides through her day, transitioning from work to play with easy charm. How to semaphore the season's mellow mood? It's all in the details: a sprinkling of stars, sweetened frills and niave embellishment plough a bold romantic furrow.
Having attended the Markus Lupfer SS16 presentation last season and fallen in love, I was more than a little bit excited to see what he had in store for us this time. After a cold and rainy walk across Westminster, we were welcomed into the warm and dry of Horse Guards Avenue and presented with a deliciously refreshing juice drink to enjoy whilst we mooched around the presentation.
Markus Lupfer has a beautiful way with prints and patterns. This season he managed to incorporate his signature florals into the collection with a winter-appropriate, retro 70s style, which looked elegant and sophisticated in a colour palette of navy blues, forest greens, and dusky pink.
Lupfer contrasted the sophisticated florals with metallic foil pleated skirts for a glam-rock meets bohemian sensibility vibe. Luxurious outerwear was also a key-focus, including a body-swamping chunky corduroy cape, a studded leather jacket and a beautifully cut, oversized tailored coat complete with matching seventies floral pockets.
The handbag collection, which made its debut as part of the Pre-Fall 2016 collection, creates a polished and put-together collection. Taking centre stage is the Riley tote, rendered in Italian-sourced leather, followed by a chorus line of studded and jewel-embellished cross-body Casey bags, the perfect finishing touch that takes a Markus Lupfer woman's daytime outfit to evening with ease.
Bags aside, it was the star-speckled and flower-embroidered boots which were the highlight of the collection in my opinion. The beautiful and intricate detail made for stunning, standout pieces that finished off the looks to perfection. The sooner they can make their way into my wardrobe - the better.

How to request sweeping
You can request sweeping of litter using our Request sweeping form.
How to report a litter bin issue
You can report an overflowing or damaged litter bin using our Report litter bin issue form.
How to request a litter bin
If you think a new litter bin is needed in a specific location you can request one using our Report litter bin issue form.
What is litter?
Litter can be as small as a sweet wrapper or cigarette end, as large as a bag of rubbish, or it can mean lots of items scattered about. Smoking-related litter is the most prevalent item of litter on the streets in this country.
Studies have shown that around 2.25 million pieces of litter are dropped in the UK every day. About £885 million a year are spent by local authorities in the UK on street cleaning and litter clearance.
Keep Britain Tidy, a charitable organisation, describes litter as "waste in the wrong place caused by human agency". In other words, it is only people that make litter.
There are over 650 litter bins in the borough and each bin is able to take bagged dog waste and litter. In or near certain retail areas dual litter and recycling bins have been installed.
What can we do?
Campaigns can be carried out in schools to raise awareness of the problems associated with litter. These encourage young people (and their parents) to use litter bins or take their litter home with them.
Take Pride
Many members of the community 'do their bit' for their local environment. A great example of this is the council's Take Pride initiative. Voluntary groups don their gloves, pick up their litter-pickers and graffiti wipes and clean up their local area.
If you or your group wish to take part, or if you would like to join an existing group, you will be provided with gloves, tabards, litter pickers and rubbish sacks. The rubbish will be picked up from an agreed place by our contractor. Just let us know when your event is taking place by calling 01344 352000 or using our enquiry form.
Keep Britain Tidy
Keep Britain Tidy also co-ordinates national Big Tidy Up campaigns. Community groups can contact them to receive tabards, refuse sacks, badges, stickers, a guide and posters to promote their clean up.
The law
The offence of 'Leaving Litter' (section 87 of the Environmental Protection Act statutory instrument (law)) 1990) is a criminal offence. The police or local authority can prosecute people who drop litter. Local authority officers and litter wardens can give an on-the-spot £75 fixed penalty notice for littering. Average fines are around £95 but can rise to £2,500 if taken to court.

One of Britain's largest police forces is to pay a private firm £25m in an attempt to radically reform the way it fights crime, switching from officers "randomly" walking a beat to a greater reliance on technology-led attempts to prevent and solve offences.
West Midlands police's chief constable, Chris Sims, defended the deal, saying budget cuts meant the way officers operated needed to be torn up, hailing the prospective changes as "the most radical transformation of policing that there has ever been".
Sims said the deal with Accenture would save much more money than it cost, with the firm's fees being tied to its recommended reforms saving money and boosting the force's performance.
The force has already cut its budget by £100m and must find £120m more cuts in the next five years, meaning at least another 10% reduction in officer numbers.
Sims said: "We're going to be less reliant on manpower, therefore we have got to rely more on better technology if we still want to improve policing and deliver it for less cost."
The hope is technology will cut the time officers spend in offices doing paperwork and allow them to do more while on the frontline. Supporters hope it will boost the intelligence available to police chiefs to better predict hotspots of crime and antisocial behaviour.
As well as saving money the tie-up aims to help officers cope with changes in society driven by the wider use of technology and the subsequent changes in people's behaviour.
Sims said crime fighting used to be based on policing public spaces such as streets and tackling disorder, but now there were differing demands, particularly preventing and detecting crimes committed online, in people's homes.
Some traditional police activities may end, said Sims. "The notion of the random patrol is not going to stand the test of time."
Instead better intelligence and technology can place patrols in areas where they are most needed.
It is hoped the deal will allow police to make greater use of social media to detect and prevent crime, and to let the public report concerns and interact with officers.

Oracle Receives Court Permission to Use Google's Email in Java Patent Case
Tiffany Kaiser
October 21, 2011 9:33 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: linkapisindomedia.com)
Google had fought to keep Oracle from using the email against it
Last year,
Oracle sued Google
for patent infringement concerning the Android mobile operating system. Oracle claimed that Google had infringed on Java-related patents and copyrights, and Oracle had purchased the rights to Java in 2009 when it purchased Sun Microsystems for $5.6 billion.
Google said it had looked into using other programming languages for its Android mobile operating system, but they apparently didn't meet Google's standards.
"Java is essential for Android," said Al Hilwa, of research firm IDC. "Since Android has been out there for more than a year, most people would have expected they were in compliance with whatever license terms apply."
Not long before Oracle filed its lawsuit, Google had created an email saying that it needed to "negotiate a license for Java." Once the lawsuit erupted, Google fought to keep the email from being used by Oracle in the case.
But now, U.S. District Judge William Alsup ruled in an order on Thursday that the email is not protected by the attorney client privilege.
"Google has failed to identify any aspect of the challenged order that was clearly erroneous or contrary to law," said Alsup in the ruling.
While this doesn't look good for Google, Alsup already
partially granted a request by Google
to throw out Oracle's $2.6 billion in damages, saying that 90 percent of the Oracle patents were ruled invalid.
Reports have also noted that Google could
drop parts of Java's J2SE code
from the Android mobile operating system and avoid further Java-related issues with Oracle.
"Mac OS X is like living in a farmhouse in the country with no locks, and Windows is living in a house with bars on the windows in the bad part of town." -- Charlie Miller

Changing times and doing the hustle
So I badly needed a change of pace from sunny San Diego, and I booked a trip to New York City! The last time I was here was when I was 17 years old. Things have changed quite a bit over the years! When I left San Diego, the high was looking to be about 77 that day. The first day in NYC was the day after a huge blizzard. They called it a "weather bomb" where tons of snow fell in a really short Continue→

Forensics and DUI patrol
Spokane County Sheriff's Office Air 1 helicopter. SR file photo.
Last night was another interesting night at the Citizen's Academy class offered by the Spokane County Sheriff's Office that offers a peek into the department. We heard from people working forensics, DUI patrol and Air 1. The head of the forensics unit, Carrie Johnson, talked about how she got started in the business 35 years ago. "I was the first girl," she said. "I started as a secretary and worked my way up." The unit may have been all men when she started but in recent years it has been all women. The unit does include one man right now.
Johnson said that a relatively simple crime scene can take several hours to proceess. A more complicated one can take anywhere from 12 hours to three days. "We were at Robert Yates' house for two weeks," she said, referring to Spokane's serial killer.
Deputy Todd Miller talked about his work in the Spokane Valley traffic unit as the only DUI patrol officer. The unit includes two deputies on day shift and two deputies on night shift. He's a BAC instructor and a drug recognition expert. "Basically I drive around all the city of Spokane Valley and look for drunk drivers," he said. His peak time for finding drunk drivers is between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m.
Sgt. Dave Ellis spoke about Air 1, the Sheriff's Office helicopter that was donated to the department by the U.S. Army. The helicopter is able to fly about 300 hours per year for only $92,000 because all the pilots are volunteers and parts are purchased from the military at a discount, Ellis said. The crew includes a pilot and tactical flight officer at a minimum. The 10 volunteer pilots include three certified flight instructors, four military pilots, one MedStar pilot, one retired LAPD pilot and a Holleywood stunt pilot.

Customs turns over 23 'seized' rubber boats to NDRRMC
MANILA, Aug 9 (Mabuhay) – The Bureau of Customs (BOC) has turned over 23 rubber boats to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRMMC) to be used for its rescue operations.
"Kahapon, I ordered the turnover of 23 rubber boats [sa] NDRRMC. Yesterday pinadala ko doon,†Customs Commissioner Ruffy Biazon said.
Biazon said the rubber boats were considered seized items after they were abandoned by an importer who could not pay the required dues.
Biazon earlier said that the BOC will conduct an inventory of confiscated goods which have undergone appropriate processes and procedures and are available for donation.
Aside from the rubber boats, he said they also have used clothes and lumber available for donation to the Department of Social and Welfare Development.
DOF urged to process release of items
Vice President Jejomar Binay has also asked the Department of Finance (DOF) to process the release of items seized by the BOC so that these may be used for the government's relief efforts.
In a letter to Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima, Binay recommended that the goods confiscated by the BOC be immediately distributed to those who were recently affected by heavy rains.
"In view of the devastation caused by torrential rains in Metro Manila and nearby provinces, I recommend we take immediate steps to release rice, food items, clothing and other similar items seized by the Bureau of Customs to the concerned government agencies for immediate distribution to the evacuees,†Binay said in the letter.
Binay had specifically cited the 420,000 sacks of white Indian rice and 90 container vans of Vietnam rice illegally brought into the country through the Subic Freeport Zone.
Senators have already begun investigating the alleged smuggling attempt and also recommended that the rice just be donated to the poor or calamity victims.
Biazon, however, said these sacks of rice were subject of litigation. "The shipper is claiming that rice. Under appeal siya,†he said.
He likewise explained that the donation of seized goods must undergo a process. He said that after seized goods are forfeited, they must undergo bidding. After two failed biddings, it is only then can they be donated to a specific agency.
But he said if the government wants the goods to be released without payment of duties and tax, clearance from the DOF is needed.
"[So] people calling for donations by the BOC I hope would also understand that there are processes involved here,†he said. (MNS)

5-8/180 pounds of Noel Devine has been an internet legend since his freshman
highlights started surfacing two years ago on the internet. There were reactions
of disbelief; there were reactions of awe.
His junior tape is nothing short of extraordinary. The Class of 2007 marks my fifth class of scouting in the field, and this is the best high school player I've seen.
There is speed, and then there is Noel Devine. Some players can accelerate out of cuts to show their cat-like quickness; Devine actually accelerates through his cuts. I've never seen a player continue to get faster while he is changing directions. Devine makes would be tacklers look like their running up hill, while he is slalom skiing down hill between them.
Speed is great, but it's only part of the equation. His ability to accelerate from multiple body positions shows tremendous balance. That balance comes in handy while shedding tackles as well. Devine isn't just about speed and change of direction. He has uncanny balance and is nearly impossible to bring down even if a defender, or two, or three, is lucky enough to make contact.
If this was Sony PlayStation, I'd institute a "Noel Devine" Rule.... No one can use Noel Devine, because the programmers exaggerated his talent, and he's too good for the game.
Devine swept through the competition as a junior. He rushed for 1,933 yards and 24 touchdowns on 173 carries. Interestingly enough, Devine never carried the ball more than 20 times as a junior, including a signature 398 yard performance against Bishop Verot.
Devine may not end up being the best back in college, but if there's a better high school player in the country than Noel Devine, I haven't seen him.

China on Screen: Cinema and Nation
€ 103,99
Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
April 2006
BeschreibungIn China on Screen, Chris Berry and Mary Farquhar, leaders in the field of Chinese film studies, explore more than one hundred years of Chinese cinema and nation. Providing new perspectives on key movements, themes, and filmmakers, Berry and Farquhar analyze the films of a variety of directors and actors, including Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Hou Hsiao Hsien, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung, Gong Li, Wong Kar-wai, and Ang Lee. They argue for the abandonment of "national cinema" as an analytic tool and propose "cinema and the national" as a more productive framework. With this approach, they show how movies from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Chinese diaspora construct and contest different ideas of Chinese nation -- as empire, republic, or ethnicity, and complicated by gender, class, style, transnationalism, and more. Among the issues and themes covered are the tension between operatic and realist modes, male and female star images, transnational production and circulation of Chinese films, the image of the good foreigner -- all related to different ways of imagining nation. Comprehensive and provocative, China on Screen is a crucial work of film analysis.
