L&T Finance Holdings, listed in August 2011, has seen healthy growth in the previous quarters and is also open to inorganic opportunities.
N Sivaraman, president and wholetime director shares the business plans with Malvika Joshi, and the challenges of setting up an infrastructure debt fund. Edited excerpts:
What was the key driver of growth in assets?
The third quarter results show us having grown by almost 30 per cent (asset under management) till now. The asset size (loans) has grown by 50 per cent year-on-year. This has primarily been on the back of a growing infrastructure book and robust demand for rural products like tractors and farm equipment. Although disbursements to the sector have not increased a lot. Our focus on long-term loans has resulted in robust growth in our loan book and the balance sheet.
What are your expansion plans?
We will continue to grow the existing product lines. Yes, we will have to add some more products to our portfolio to sustain the sort of growth we are seeing currently.
We will be looking at adding some asset-backed products. It will be important to add new products because at some point the existing ones will reach saturation. Then, we will merely grow at the market rate.
Do have any acquisition plans to assist expansion?
Acquisitions have to be carefully handled in the financial business, more so in lending. It is important to evaluate how different it is from a portfolio purchase. We will look at products we do not have at the moment in our portfolio if we are are going for acquisitions, so that we can kickstart the product in the market smoothly. If new products are available, we will explore the opportunity.
What are the kinds of projects you are looking in a scenario where infrastructure sector is in a lot of trouble?
Our exposure to the thermal sector is lesser than our total lending to power projects based on renewable sources. Our exposure to the power sector is around 37 per. Out of this, 21 per cent is in renewable power.
We have financed solar, hydroelectric wind and biomass-based power projects — these have driven our growth . The solar projects are primarily located around Gujarat, as part of the solar energy mission. This is the first phase. Most of the projects are operational.
Being an infrastructure finance company, are you looking to set up an IDF (infrastructure debt fund)? If yes, will it be set up as mutual fund (MF) or NBFC (non-banking financial company?
One issue with IDF is the requirement of a certain maturity or lock-in period. FIIs (foreign institutional investors) cannot trade outside the FII segment. In a scenario where we are seeing Europe in almost a meltdown situation, we are not receiving much attention for such an initiative.
However, as a large infrastructure-focused NBFC, this is an obvious area of interest. We are putting together our business plan and the framework we want to use to build up this business. The MF model will be better for domestic investors, whereas an NBFC model will allow foreign institutional investors to invest.
How has been the response to the second tranche of tax-saving bonds?
The response has been quite encouraging. We still have some more days for the issue to close. The response has been good so far, but the tax-free bonds have certainly been a challenge for this instrument.
The incentives to investors and intermediaries available through tax-saving bonds are less. The efforts in issuing these bonds have to made worthwhile in terms of funds procured, as the benefit of raising money at a cheap rate gets lost in the distribution costs.
The budget should allow more incentives to investors through these bonds, as they are a viable source of retail funds for infrastructure projects.

A/N: Just for the record, I love Where The Wild Things Are. However, I've learned that if you love something enough, you can learn to laugh at it, as well. ;)
DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything.
WARNING: Strong language ahead.
Part I
Once upon a time, there was this kid named Max. He lived with his bitchy sister and his workaholic mother in a house that was in some lame-ass non-identifiable neighborhood in the state of Who-Gives-A-Fuck. Max was lonely. But like the state's namesake, no one really cared.
So one day, Max was building a snow fort/igloo thing (and eating the snow in the process). Um, ew! Doesn't he know what happens to snow on the ground? Good Lord, does he wanna get worms? But, whatever, he was building this kick-ass fort, and he wanted his bitch sister to come see it. So he was all, "Hey, bitch! Get your ass out here and see my fort!" And she was all, "Hell no! I'm on the phone, motherfucker! Go play with your dumbass friends!"
Well, this pissed off Max. Everyone knows he doesn't HAVE any friends. So he vowed revenge! (insert lightning bolts and thunder claps)
So Bitchy's friends showed up in their Cash-For-Clunkers-piece-of-shit car, and Max got a brilliant idea! He snuck over to his house and AMBUSHED THEM WITH SNOWBALLS! Oh, no!
So the idiot teenagers went into combat, but Max retreated to his snow fort. And then they landed on top of it, practically killing Max with their fat asses.
Well, Max was upset. He started to cry. And the teenagers did nothing about it. They just went back to their shitty car. And Bitchy just looked at her brother, and got in the shitty car. And then they drove off.
Max wouldn't stand for this! There was only one thing he could do: trash that bitch's room! Yeah! Get it all soaked and shit! That'll teach her to piss him off!
But then Max felt...bad. He was sorry he'd trashed her room. So he went and pouted for a while.
Then his mom came home and was all, "How was your day?"
And he was all, "It sucked. Bitchy's minions wrecked my snow fort. And she didn't stop them, the fucking bitch."
And she was all, "Oh, is that all? Wow, you need a life, son of mine who's strangely swearing without my consent."
And then Max was feeling EVEN WORSE about what he'd done, so he showed his mom Bitchy's ruined room. And she was all, "What the fuck is this? Why would you do this, you little shit? Dammit, you're a fucking moron!"
So they cleaned up the room with towels. FUCKING TOWELS. Yeah, they didn't use Bounty, the quilted quicker-picker upper. What the hell is this, Spike Jonze?
Anyway, later that night, Max went to bother his mom while she was working on her dinosaur of a computer. Then they wrote an emo vampire story together, and published it, and it put Twilight out of business.
The next day at school, all the snow was magically gone. Yeah, there was, what, two fucking feet of snow one day, and then the next, it's all gone. What, did Aslan come and make the snow go away? What the fuck?
Max was really scared, because his hippy teacher was all, "Yeah, the sun's gonna die, and we're all gonna die. Just sayin'." And Max was all, "Why are you telling me this, motherfucker? I'm nine! I don't need to hear this shit!"
But the damage was done. Max built a fort that night in order to save himself. And he was all, "Mom! Come look at the kick-ass fort I made!" And she was all, "Shut up! My man whore's over right now, and I'm paying attention to him!"
Max got even more pissed off, so he put on his wolf suit (yeah...his wolf suit...I don't get it, either) and went downstairs to raise some hell.
He dissed the dinner his mom was making, and then he refused to get his sorry little ass off the counter. And the mom was all, "What the hell? Get off the damn counter!" And Max was all, "Bitch, feed me!"
So they chased each other around the house, and Max bit her. And she was all, "Motherfucker, that hurt! You're fucking out of control, you little ass!"
And Max was sad. So he ran away.
He thrashed around because he was crazy, but then he found a boat! A fucking boat, out in the middle of nowhere! What the hell, was this kid high or something? Whatever, he got in and sailed away. He was on that boat for WEEKS. And he was BORED.
But then he saw land, and tied his boat to a rock. And then he scaled a dangerously-tall cliff and almost died. And then he finally found something cooler that would make his life fucking awesome.
But I can't tell you yet. You'll have to read the next part to figure it out!

Wil Anderson - cat person and lovin' it
Well-known comedian, Wil Anderson, is a proud "cat person" and has something to say about "the whole men and cats issue". According to Wil, "In this country if you are a man and you say I like cats, what people actually hear is I have my period, now get me a hot water bottle and a block of chocolate because I want to watch Grey's Anatomy."
"There is no line in the VB ad that says, You can get it stroking your cat's tummy until he goes meow, matter of fact, I've got it now!"
Wil has three adopted cats – Tip, Diego and Ziggy – and says that the adoption process was easy.
"I think the thing people need to know is how easy it is because of organisations like Pet Rescue. In fact, if Angelina Jolie could adopt kids this easily she would have 100 by now.
"Going through an organisation like Pet Rescue means you can be confident your pet will be healthy and have all its shots and they only match people with pets that suit their needs."
Here he introduces his three feline friends.
"They are all adopted cats. Well, I say adopted. I think they realise that we are not their real parents.
"The eldest is Tip. He is named that because we got him as a six-week-old kitten at a rescue that was at the rubbish tip near Bowral. We wanted to remind him even though he was having a spoiled city life, he was still from the wrong side of the tracks. You know, like Ryan from The OC.
"Then there is Diego, who is a Burmese cat who was in an accident and going to be put down when we got him at about eight weeks. He walks with a limp, although he can still get up some speed when he gets going. Every time you watch him get up it is like the final scene of The Usual Suspects.
"And finally Ziggy, who is white and had been hit by a car. He was tiny when we got him and he just likes to eat. Everything. Especially if it is on our plate. He is the only cat who would go on MasterChef. He would only eat a mouse if he got to marinate, stuff and slow-roast it first."
Wil says he loves being a cat owner and knows that it is good for him, but they currently have no plans to add more cats to their household. "We are a little worried that if we take in too many more animals the neighbours will think we are building an ark in the backyard!"

Spectacular, direct-ocean, views of the Atlantic Ocean from this 2 bedroom, 1 bath corner apartment, with contemporary furnishings, 3 flat screen TV's, WiFi, and large balcony overlooking the Ocean for relaxing and dining. Parking is included. Directly on the Beach in Sobe. 4 new pools overlooking the Ocean (including a small kiddie pool) with new pool furniture with poolside restaurant and bar. Walk to the best restaurants, nightlife, Lincoln Road, Convention Center, Bass Museum and Deco District.
All is going well. Your place and the location are great. It's very nice to find a place that is well-equipped (couch, coffee table, kitchen table, breakfast bar, patio furniture, normal beds, full kitchen, etc.). I've stayed at other places in the past and feel like I've lucked out this time, usually there were some major things missing! Thanks again!
Sorry for the delay leaving a review! We stayed at the apartment back in April and cannot recommend it highly enough. Super location with supermarket directly across the road, swimming pools, staff and facilities were brilliant. We had a 4 year old with us and he still talks about how much he loved the pool there. The apartment itself is lovely, very clean and well equipped. Photos are accurate and the view over the pool and out to the sea was simply stunning. Mark was extremely helpful and came to meet us in person, also quick to respond to a query we had. I would definitely book this apartment if I'm back in Miami, thanks again!
We were in this beautiful apartment in May and We spent a wonderfull time there. The apt has a great location and excellent amenities!
The owner , Mark, is a very kind person! He was very very helpful.
The only problem that we had, was the many stairs that we must to up and down, with two babies and one stroller, to get to the beach because a part of the building was in reparation and the elevators were closed.
The rest was perfect!
Again thank you Mark for everything!
We are family with two small kids and we had a lovely vacation on this really nice condo
Hope to rent it again soon!
Apartment was lovely w a fabulous view.
Owner was kind and available if needed. We had an amazing time and will definitely return! Great for families w children.
Stayed here with my husband and 2 young children. Beautiful condo with fantastic views! Owner was extremely helpful and patient when we late in arriving. Pool & beach beautiful & easily accessible just too hot & humid to be there long. Great location, away from the craziness but only 10-15 min walk along the beach promenade. Tip would be to shop at the publix store or similar (short drive away) if you're planning on eating in much as the nearby stores are expensive & don't stock much fresh food. There is plenty going on in the area for kids during the day so don't be put off Miami being party capital.
We had a wonderful relaxing stay in Oct. 2015, we enjoied every minute. The apartment is as nice as described, the view is stunning, the proximity of the beach is fantastic, the building is clean, the pool is spacious, walking distance to the "center" of Miami beach. We are looking forward to coming again. The owner was very helpful, we had a very precise instructions to get in and out. He gave us awesome instructions for restaurants etc.
Within walking distance of all the shopping and restaurants in South Beach and situated right on the Beach!

text: IRVINE, Calif., May 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) announced today a new study in the British Journal of Anesthesia demonstrates that Masimo's noninvasive PVI ® can be used to help clinicians accurately assess fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated children under general anesthesia, 1 adding to the growing body of evidence that shows the efficacy of PVI across a wide range of patient populations. Hemodynamic instability is a common challenge in surgical and critically ill patients. When necessary, fluid administration is critical to optimizing patient status and enabling end organ preservation, 2 but unnecessary fluid administration is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. 3 The decision whether to administer fluid in an attempt to improve cardiac output can be challenging because traditional invasive methods can be inaccurate at predicting fluid responsiveness while newer dynamic indicators for assessing fluid responsiveness are accurate but are either invasive, operator-dependent, or costly. 4,5 In the study conducted at Seoul National University Hospital in Seoul, South Korea, researchers evaluated 33 pediatric patients undergoing neurosurgery, ranging in age from 6 months to 9 years. Investigators evaluated measurements from commonly used invasive and complex techniques including: central venous pressure (CVP), systolic pressure variation (SPV), pulse pressure variation (PPV), change in inferior vena cava diameter measurement (∆IVCD), and respiratory aortic blood flow velocity (ΔV peak), while also evaluating Masimo's noninvasive and automated PVI (Masimo Radical-7 ®). All measurements were compared before volume expansion and whether their values were associated with a significant change in stroke volume index (SVI). There were 15 volume responders (≥10% increase in SVI after volume expansion) and 18 non-responders (<10% increase in SVI after volume expansion). Researchers found that only PVI >11% (with sensitivity of 73.3% and specificity of 86.7%) and ΔV peak of >11% (with sensitivity of 86.7% and specificity of 72.2%) predicted fluid responsiveness. All other measures (CVP, SPV, PPV, ∆IVCD) were not associated with an improvement in SVI and therefore were poor predictors of fluid responsiveness. The researchers noted that while both ΔV peak and PVI are noninvasive and have been shown to be good indicators of fluid responsiveness in various clinical settings, ΔV peak is dependent on a skilled operator with costly imaging equipment, while PVI can be used by clinicians who can use a pulse oximeter.

Spotted Lily
Angela Pendergast, escapee from the Australian bush, grew up with the smell of hot mutton fat in her hair, the thought of her teeth crunching a cold Tim Tam chocolate biscuit-the height of decadent frivolity.
Now, though her tastes have grown and she knows absolutely what she wants, her life is embarrassingly stuck. So when the Devil drops into her bedroom in her sharehouse in inner-city Sydney with a contract in hand, she signs. He's got only a Hell's week to fulfil his side, but in the meantime he must chaperone her — or is it the other way around?
Shortlisted for the William L. Crawford Award
Locus Recommended Reading List selection
"I hate giving away the story, but allow me to say that this novel is not going where you think it is....teaming with genuine wit and humor... excellent writing...One thing I'm sure of is that it should be required reading for all those who go into writing fiction with dreams of great remuneration and fame. If it were, Tambour would already be both wealthy and famous."
– Jeffrey Ford, 14theditch
"...a wicked, thoroughly unpredictable romp . . . Spotted Lily might just be a particularly inventive comic take on wish-fulfillment, but soon enough it strays far from the beaten path...a dizzying but delightful journey through old myths and modern chaos, turning Faust and Pygmalion on their ear as it cuts its own path toward something like self-knowledge."
– Faren Miller, Locus
"The main thing is, the novel is real."
– Jeff VanderMeer
"One of the things I liked most about this book was that it was so difficult to tell where it was going...the book is so well written that for a lot of the time you don't actually notice that it has a supernatural element to it."

Billie: Emotion.
Instead of going with everyone else, I head down to the basement, wanting to get as close to earth as I can. Earth always helps to numb the feelings ofmine and others around me.
I can sense and control peoples emotions and I'm surprised I haven't gone mad yet, but I'm not complaining. I take off my shoes and walk on the cold concrete floor. I sigh. It feels so good. I can still feel the rest of the people in the house emotions. Most of them is fear, confusion, glad and worried. I shake my head.
I have enough problems without my power. Why are the humans suddenly coming after me? Well, it's not just me but why now? I sit down and close my eyes, trying to think.
"What are you doing down here?" I jump up and turn to the guy in front of me. I look to the floor. I've never been good with anyone looking at me, I prefer to be in the shadows. It's where I belong. I shrug at the guy.
I can feelhis emotions and I wince, putting my hands to my head. I start massarging my temples. "Are you okay?" He's right in front of me, I nod. I can tell by his feelings that he doesn't believe me.
"C'mon. Lets see what the others are doing." He grabs myhand and takes me out of the basement and up the stairs to the others. I groan as their emotions hits me, getting stronger the closer I am to them.
We are in another big living room. I pull my hand free and stand in the corner, the darkest part of the room. I like it here, I feel calmer.

I've searched the whole message board here and the only answer to this is unacceptable. I just want a document to expire after a preset amount of time (I don't even really care if it's a PDF, .DOC, or other). This simply can't be that hard to manage. I've looked at things like Fileopen and Authentica and the problem with those is that I don't have $2500 to spend on a solution and I don't have a web server (or any other servers) and I'm not going to put one in just for this. There must be a way to simply have a document expire when a certain date is reached. I can do it in a Word Macro right now but so far, I haven't figured out how to force a user to either accept that macro or to keep them from copying a document once they have it. PDF seems like a good way to go as its security seems better and it's a standard product but I simply can't go to a high-end solution like Fileopen for this. It's just way too expensive. Isn't there any other way to do it?

Texas A&M University/Scott & White Clinic, Temple, TX
Empyema is often associated with substantial morbidity and potential mortality. Antibiotics and tube thoracostomy alone may be insufficient due to loculations. This has led to the use of intrapleural thrombolytics as a therapeutic adjunct. The most commonly used thrombolytics have been urokinase and streptokinase. This report describes our three-year experience with an alternative fibrinolytic agent, alteplase.
A search was performed of our electronic medical record utilizing the terms empyema or loculated effusion, and activase, t-PA or alteplase. Patients were included if they met the criteria for empyema or loculated pleural effusion and were treated with alteplase via thoracostomy tube. Charts were reviewed and baseline data recorded: demographics, indication for hospitalization and thrombolytic therapy, dose and frequency of activase therapy, need for surgical decortication, lytic complications, RBC transfusion, hospital LOS, degree of effusion by chest radiography at presentation, hospital discharge and 30 days post discharge follow-up.
Patient characteristics appear in Table 1.
Table 1.
Patient Characteristics
gastric bypass, perforated esophagus, mediastinal abscess, s/p lung resection
Fibrinolytic Frequency & Complications
These results support our clinical experience that this treatment is safe however due to the small sample size and retrospective nature further investigation is warranted.
Alteplase has properties which differ from previously used intrapleural thrombolytics. Further study with alteplase for empyema will help determine efficacy.

text: Hi everyone, I just wasted my Sunday afternoon trying to figure this one out and thought I'd spare anybody the waste of time. Since installing the Windows 7 RC, I had sporadically had trouble with my desktop icons and taskbar not appearing when I started up. I went on a wild goose chase changing user accounts and found that when you change your settings to having multiple user accounts (one of which you have to log into at startup) the problem manifested itself as a blank screen with a lonely mouse pointer that was useless. The answer was to start up in "Safe Mode" and then take a look at my monitor setup (I got there via "Adjust Screen Resolution"). I found that the monitor was set up for 2 monitors instead of just one. I set it to just the one monitor and I've never had the problem again. Took me the best part of 4 hours to figure that out, and I only figured it out by accident when I hit the "Switch monitor" button on my monitor accidently when I was trying to hit the power button. Hope this is useful to someone. Dennis

Reggae Bar Chinatown in Kuala Lumpur
Chinatown Nightlife0
Reggae Bar Chinatown is exactly what it says it is: a groovy and colourful bar playing reggae music, with photos of Bob Marley and other legends of the genre on the walls. The only bar in the area, it is an ultra friendly place knee-deep in backpackers, set along Jalan Tun HS Lee.
Just down the road is the Reggae Bar Guesthouse, which explains some of its popularity with travellers. Ladies are given especially good prices on drinks. Bob Marley songs seem to be on constant rotation and the place is artfully decked out in red, yellow and green.Read More

The Menu
With a tagline 'Love All, Feed All' is it any wonder that the cuisine at Reggae Bar Chinatown is so popular? The menu consists of mostly western fare with salads, soups, steaks, fish and chips, pizzas, pastas and tapas all featured.
Reggae Bar Changkat
There are two branches of Reggae Bar: the first was established in Chinatown while the second set up shop along Changkat Bukit Bintang years later. They could not be more different, with Reggae Bar Chinatown attracting a young, backpacker crowd and offering cheap drinks, pool tables, Bob Marley hits and some R&B thrown in for good measure.
Reggae Bar Changkat is set at the other end of the spectrum with live music performances and a thoroughly upscale atmosphere. The club features red velvet baroque couches, red carpets, dim lighting and an exclusive atmosphere. Be sure to check out the cool neon-lit staircase that leads up to a more spacious lounge.

HAHA's 6th Birthday!
Kenny Larkin (Detroit)
Warp / Rush Hour / Transmat / Submerge / R&S
Bleepin' J. Squawkins (LIVE)
Hailing from the Motor City and fixing computers in the U.S. Air Force are just two of these crucial factors, perhaps even just as strong elements were the influences of fellow Detroit heavy weights, Juan Atkins and Derrick May.
It was May's weekly radio show that helped to inspire Larkin to stride down the pathway of music production. Other monumental influences for Larkin include the sounds played at legendary Detroit dance clubs, "The Music Institute" and "The Shelter" which he frequented regularly with good friend, Richie Hawtin. They, along with other Detroit club goers, witnessed the birth of a new genre of music at local clubs; a sound that came to be called 'Detroit Techno'.
The bumping, sultry, emotive, yet almost romantic style of club music that rose out of urban plight, desperation, and decay.
Larkin's sound combines house music's more swinging, rhythmical vibe and soft edge with that of Techno's muscular backbeat and experimental zeal….and 1990 was the first step towards the future and his own futuristic soundscapes with a pair of 12 inches on Richie Hawtin and John Acquiviva's label, "PLUS 8?.
However, it wasn't until 1992, when he founded his own label, "ART OF DANCE", that he cemented his signature sound.
Under his new, "Dark Comedy" moniker, Larkin created his seminal techno classic, "War of the Worlds" on Derrick May's Transmat Records before moving on to release material on labels such as WARP and R&S, which were massively influential on British and German, as well as American strains of Techno.
Since those early formative years Larkin has released his sounds on other acclaimed labels including SUBMERGE, PLANET E, PEACEFROG, and RUSH HOUR.
His first full length album, "Azimuth" (released in 1994) was deemed in the top 50 Techno cd's of all time and his "Keys, Strings and Tambourines" album was awarded placement in the top 20 albums of that year on Resident Advisor.
He's traveled over 2 million miles around the globe, accumulated over 4 million air miles and he's DJ'd and played live at the biggest Festivals in Europe, some in front of as many as 25,000 fans, is FINALLY on his way back to Australia……..
AND, if his top ten list of influential artists is anything to go by, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Charles Mingus, Michael Franks, Kraftwerk, Jean-Luc Ponty, Derrick May, Carl Craig, Shade, and Parliament/Funkadelic….
You know WE'RE in for another very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

A federal Young Liberal organization is scrapping plans to receive political donations at an event Tuesday evening featuring Parliamentary Budget Officer Kevin Page.
Just hours before the event in Nanaimo, B.C., the lead organizer told The Globe and Mail money raised at the door would go the Vancouver Island University Young Liberals. The organizer also said receipts would be offered to those wishing to claim a political donation for tax purposes.
But after The Globe asked Mr. Page to comment on the optics of his appearance at an event that would be raising money for the Liberal Party, the Parliamentary Budget Officer said he would refuse to appear unless he was assured any profits would go to charity. He said he was told the event was non-partisan and that he would be contacting the organizer.
Minutes later The Globe received an email from the organizer explaining that plans had changed.
"We just now decided to clear the air and to wash away any misunderstandings or misconceptions," wrote Mike McDowall, who is organizing the event and who is also vice-president of the federal Liberal association for Nanaimo-Alberni. "All the proceeds will go to pay for costs and any other profits raised will go to a local Nanaimo food bank."
Chisholm Pothier, a spokesman for Finance Minister Jim Flaherty, described Mr. Page's planned appearance at the event as "deeply disappointing" and said it calls into question the neutrality of his position. "One would think he would know better," he said in an email.
The event in Nanaimo was promoted on the website of the federal Liberal Party.
Advance tickets were $5 for students and $10 for adults. It was billed as a non-partisan event and there was no mention of raising money for the Young Liberals.
Yet when The Globe first contacted Mr. McDowall Tuesday, he explained that money raised at the door would go the Young Liberals on campus.
"Technically the money will be going to the VIU Young Liberals, part of their financial assets," he said when asked about what would happen to the money raised at the event. "We are giving the option for people to sign off if they want to get a tax donation... We'll be mentioning that."
The Parliamentary Budget Office is non-partisan and staffed by public servants. Its reports challenging the federal government's financial numbers have at times created tension between Conservatives and the office.
When asked by The Globe about the optics of appearing at a Liberal-organized event, Mr. Page said there was never any mention of partisan fundraising.
"If there are any surplus funds (after cover for [the]hall or technology support or coffee) I will request it go to a local charity or I will not speak," he wrote.
Local NDP MP Jean Crowder said she and other New Democrats would be attending the event. While she did not expect the organizers would make a large profit, she said it would be "problematic" for Mr. Page if money did go to the Liberals.Report Typo/Error

Southbank International School is run by Cognita, a firm which plans to set up government-funded free schools. But some parents of children at Southbank have accused the company of "milking" the school for money, underpaying staff and failing to invest in it.
Now former City banker Chris Cooper-Hohn and four other parents have set up a campaign group in an attempt to buy the school.
Cognita's chairman Chris Woodhead, a former head of education watchdog Ofsted, has accused Mr Cooper-Hohn of using his wealth to "intimidate and threaten".
The school, for children aged from three to 18, has campuses in Hampstead, Kensington and Westminster and was the first in the country to offer three types of International Baccalaureate programmes.
It charges up to £22,000 a year - among the highest fees in London.
Mr Cooper-Hohn's group, the Southbank Parent Initiative Board, sent a letter to parents saying: "Cognita have no serious interest in maximising the educational experience of our children if it impacts on their bottom line."
It described the school as "a money machine to be milked aggressively in the eyes of Cognita".
The letter said the group had asked the school's owners how much they would sell it for, but were told that Southbank was not for sale "at any price". The letter added that parents were considering setting up a rival school nearby. It continued: "We have concluded that the only strategy that will work long term for the educational needs of our children is to take Southbank away from Cognita."
In reply Mr Woodhead wrote to parents saying: "The hostile campaign which is being waged against Cognita is threatening the stability of the school and the ability of our teachers to do what is best for your children."
It continued: "Threats to 'destroy value' and attack companies may be acceptable in City takeover battles. Southbank is however a school. The campaign that this minority of parents is now waging could risk the future of hundreds of children and the long term excellence of a school which has been praised for its first class education."
Mr Woodhead told the Standard he had met Mr Cooper-Hohn "three or four times over the last couple of weeks and we have had purposeful discussions". He added: "Cognita welcomes competition in the market place."
In his letter to parents, Mr Woodhead said: "To the best of our knowledge our profitability is comparable to other private operators in the sector.
"Your fees are used to fund, amongst much else, an overall staff student ratio of 1:6, a figure few independent schools anywhere can match. Our average class sized are smaller than those of our competitor schools."
Cognita is one of a number of companies hoping to participate in Education Secretary Michael Gove's free school programme.
Its website states that the company is working with groups of parents who hope to set up their own schools, and can "organise the finance and development for a new school site, or refurbishment of an existing site".
At present, free schools cannot be owned by profit-making organisations but parents can contract out the school management to private companies, or use their services to lease premises and buy products.

Day 5: taking it easy and crossing the border
... short, the damn route got us lost and we ended up doing another massive detour. At rixheim, we eventually turned around to try to find any kind of river to camp on. Rivers are nice. We didnt find the rhine, but ended up staying on the banks of a kittle canal which was super pretty and a fair distance from any dodgy dog walkers!
dinner, consisting of more garlic tha pasta, followed by wine and bed was pretty much exactly what the doctor ...
Day 4: my kingdom for a pizza!!!
... right feeling turned into pain, and then into alot of pain by the end of the day. I guess this made me a rather irritating travel partner to jan. Tough. It hurt.
At some point we decided we wanted pizza for lunch. Up until now weve been having light lunches and then cooking something heavy for dinner... saving money and what not. But today, because its sunday, and all the shops are closed, and we have no food, and ...
Schwarzwald Trip - Freiburg im Breisgau
... could only see it from the outside,
and it was under pretty major construction. I'm sure it's very
impressive, but our timing was just a bit off. The rest of Freiburg was
pretty built up and commercialized, mostly due to it being a college
town I'm sure. It wasn't one of my favorite places in Germany thus far,
but like all German towns, it did have some cool architecture. One

Sunday in Mulhouse AKA Boring Sunday
NOTHING is open! The only reason we put Mulhouse on our itinerary was the car museum. It was Andrew and Alain's dream to visit this museum, one of the largest car collections in the world. YAWN! So Andrew and Alain headed off this morning to live out their fantasies and the rest of us walked into town to find some breakfast. We ended up at the railway station where we had petit dejeuner.....breakfast. Nothing else was open. Certainly no Sunday morning cafe culture ...
The Long Way Back
... the town. Pretty amazing for a village of 3,000 people! I think that the various wellness centres and the cathedral really draw people in because the downtown was quite cosmopolitan. The dome of the cathedral itself is one of the biggest in Europe. The interior itself is quite white and unusual because it is circular. All the surrounding, adjoining Buildings are part of the Catholic quarters and not the church itself. Having seen the ...

Those achievements include the creation of the BlueRibbon Coalition, helping pass the National Recreational Trails Act, and getting riders involved in the administrative, legislative, and legal processes associated with effective advocacy. Greg Mumm, the Executive Director for the BlueRibbon Coalition, states, "It was an honor to be at this event to honor Clark who has done so much to champion and defend responsible OHV recreation on public lands. He pioneered the model for effective advocacy that is currently used here at BRC and by other organizations." "Clark richly deserved this tribute and his legacy will serve to inspire grassroots activism for generations to come," Mumm concludes. BRC wants to thank the following sponsors for making it possible for it to participate in this event: EBC Brakes, Polaris Industries, Jim Morrison, Paul and Sandy Schillingstad, and Richard Christian.

This was really cute, I think you rushed a bit but it's ok
I would definitely read your story, besides if you have an idea you should most definitely bring it out; I always do that.
I'm gonna check out about your poll... still dont know what it is about, but I think I will take a look at that Backup Singer or Spy? story you mention.
Keep the good work!

Interesting; wanna know where this is leading...

I liked it. I dig that Lynnie's a math geek (I'm one too!), and the fact that she flat out told them that she wouldn't be a fangirl for them.
Update soon!

"Isn't this great, Thorn!" Kamika asked excitedly.
"Yes, it's perfect thank you." He replied, a little tired.
Walking around, they could tell things were dying down, people were beginning to say their goodbyes and finishing their drinks.
That's when it happened.
A screeching sound filled the air. Thorn and Kamika fell to the ground, feeling as if their heads were splitting because of the noise. All around people were screaming and running, parents searching for their younger children.
A large shadow fell over everything. It became silent once more.
The mist came again. This time more and more until it was engulfing their senses. It seemed to flow into their very souls, freezing them.
Thorn and Kamika clung to eachother. Barely able to breathe.
Then, as soom as the mist had come, it was gone.
Dazed, Kamika and Thorn stood. After helping Kamika up they looked around and gasped.
There was noone around. They had vanished.
They were alone.

before we said goodbyeMature
I wish I would have known
how many people look just like you,
how I can glance a silhouette from behind,
and choke on my heart in my throat
before my brain has the chance to override.
It's not you.
It never will be you.
I wish I would have known
the clarity of my memory,
how I can still remember every hair
peeking from your nostrils,
but your fingertips across my goose-bumped skin
is lost in a void of forgotten thoughts.
I wish I would have known
that the shitty song you loved ,and insisted to play on repeat,
repeats forever, inside of me.
And I hate it, but not as much as I hate
hearing nothing,
nothing at all.
And, sometimes when it rains,
and I'm drifting far away,
I feel like I hear your footsteps on the pavement,
your key in the lock,
your clumsy body causing the bed to squeak,
as you crawl in next to me ...
But then, I remember.
I remember so painfully.

Having problems with your Vacuums ?
How do you replace the belt? I took off the door and there seems to be no easy way to get it over the lower red wheel.
Answers :
Take off belt cover on the left side of the top cover, turn cleaner over, take out screw from red lock and remove, pull cap and brush roll out, unhook the cogged belt, then you can replace the pump belt thru that opening. Put belt over the pump pulley and stretched to go over the motor shaft. Then check the cogged belt and the cogged end of the pully to make sure that there are cogs, replace belt if there are cogss missing or belt is broke, if no cogs on the pulley, then you will have to replace the pump. Pulley only comes witht he pump.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - March 10, 1999, New Braunfels, Texas Time to shine T C c0 MFC r 09 iO/JJ/gqLa it.fv1 f1ICRopuBLrcHTMr n 'fc:v F VONDELL DR HINGHerald-ZeiT O IN gVol. 148, No. 78 18 pages in 2 sections March IO, 1999 tit T TX-» a ^ r Serving Comal County since 1852 SO cents Wednesday County waits for word on water district By Chris Crews Staff Writer As Comal County awaits word from the Texas Legislature regarding creation of an underground water district, commissioners will hear at their regular meeting Thursday about the day-to-day requirements of operating such a district. Paul Tybor of Hill Country Underground Water District will present an informational session about the start-up and financing of an underground water district Representatives of the County Extension Service from Texas A&M will speak about the role their agency could play. "They will go over with the court what it is like to run a water district and get a general feel as to the issues involved," assistant district attorney Ellen Salyers said. Much of eastern Comal County is under the jurisdiction of the Edwards Aquifer Authority, but the western section of the county is unregulated. Comal County commissioners sent legislators a resolution seeking creation of a multi-county underground water district over the entire Trinity Aquifer or a single-county district. Kendall and Blanco counties have requested creation of single-county districts. Officials said some support for creation of a multi-county district could be found in Hays County and northern Bexar County, but it probably was too late to get a multi-county district established during this legislative session. .County Judge Danny Scheel said the state identified the atta over the Trinity Aquifer as ft priority groundwater management area. He said the creation of an underground water district was the way to manage the resource with local control. "With the explosion in population, it is incumbent on us to preserve the quantity and quality in the western part of the county," Scheel said. A 1995 underground water district election failed by a 10-1 margin in Comal County. Scheel said he believed the climate had changed and the proposal to create a district would be approved by voters. "I feel the situation is different in that (the state) has informed us that if we don't take care of the situation that they will, his better with local control," Scheel said. Salyers said if the legislature approved creation of a county-wide underground water district, it probably would become effective Sept I. The commissioners' court would have 90 days to appoint a temporary district board. The appointees would organize an election to select permanent directors. Such an election probably would take place after the first of the year, Salyers said. In addition to selecting the directors, voters would have to approve creation of the district and approve a tax rate for the agency. Salyers said the maximum tax rate for the district would be 3 cents per SKX) property valuation. 1999 Comal County Junior Livestock Show ROBIN CORNETT/Herald-Zeitung Right, Jan Costiiow of the Texas Department of Agriculture watches steer acale numbers climb as Weldon Preiss and R6nnie Steuben lend their weight to the scale, testing it for tolerance. The scale will be used today to weigh in entries at the livestock show. Above, state officials add weights to the scale as Preiss (left) and Steuben wait patiently. Annual showcase for young farmers begins today; large crowds expected By Bill O'Connell Staff Writer Nearly 900 hogs, chickens, heifers and other livestock could change hands by Saturday at the 31 st annual Comal County Junior Livestock Show at the Comal County Fairgrounds. The four-day event begins this afternoon, when goats and swine arrive and are weighed. All other classes of livestock will arrive on Thursday. Show officials said they expected a large crowd this afternoon once exhibitors arrived with their animals. "It's pretty hectic. There will be a lot of people," said Paul Kraft, Comal County Junior Livestock Show Association president. Judging of all market animals will take place Thursday and Friday. Bidding for livestock will begin at I p.m. Saturday. Kraft said about 1,000 meals were served to prospective livestock buyers at the 1998 show, indicating a tremendous interest in the event. The stock show is a non-profit event and is free to the public. Its primary purpose is to encourage young county residents interested in raising livestock. "It's their moment to shine," Kraft said. Exhibitors are members of area 4-H and Future Farmers of America clubs.Teacher pay raises, graduation requirements top CISD agenda By Heather ToodStaff Writer Comal Independent School District board of trustees is prepared to make some tough financial decisions Thursday night. Facing an estimated $ 1.2 million deficit in the district's proposed 1999-2000 budget, the board also is looking at making profound cuts in district expenditures. Trustees will meet at 6 p.m. at Canyon Intermediate School, 1275 North Business 35. The administration is proposing a $3,000 across-the-board pay raise for all district teachers, nurses and librarians for the 1999-2000 school year. The pay raises will cost the district an estimated $2.5 million, based on current staff. The board also will consider an administration proposal to reduce required credits for incoming ninth-grade students under the minimum graduation plan. Under the proposed changes, freshmen in the 1999-2000 school year who opt for the minimum plan would have to complete 22 state-mandated credits to graduate. The cur rent minimum plan requires 24 credits. Students can graduate under three graduation plans — minimum, recommended and distinguished. The proposal would affect only incoming freshmen next year. Current freshmen, sophomores and juniors would graduate in the 24-credit plan. The recommended minimum graduation plan would lose these local credits; one fine arts credit; two foreign language credits; one credit each of social studies and science; and one-half credit of study skills. The half credit of study skills also would be dropped from the recommended and distinguished plans for incoming freshmen. Carol Hall, assistant superintendent for instructional services, said the reduction of local credits would reduce preliminary additional staffing requirements at Canyon High School from 5.5 teachers to one teacher and 16.5 teachers at Smithson Valley High School to 4.5 teachers. The district is sitting at the state-imposed maximum rate — $1.50 per $100 valuation — for maintenance and operations, which pays for supplies and staff salaries. High school graduation credits are only the first of a long line of areas the board will look at cutting in an attempt to reduce the district's budget deficient next year. Board president Dan K. Krueger said, "This doesn't affect the other two plans. Students who want to challenge themselves with additional courses and requirements can continue to do so. "Anything that hinders the educational process is a concern to me, but we have a serious budget situation and there are adjustments we need to make."

ROBIN CORNETT/ Herald-Zeitung Three cars collide at accident-prone spot By Heather Tooo Staff Writer A three-car collision at Common Street and Union Avenue Tuesday afternoon sent one woman to McKenna Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. About 12:45 p.m., a woman driving a Jeep Grand Wagoneer allegedly disregarded a stoplight while heading north on Union Avenue and collided with a Chevrolet pickup truck driven by a New Braunfels man. The man was driving through the intersection toward East Common Street when he was struck by the northbound vehicle. The man said he tried to stop when he saw the Wagoneer but was hit on the side in the middle of the intersection. The force of the impact forced the truck into a car heading westbound through the Common Street intersection. A passenger in a red lsuzu hit by the man s truck said the collision sent the car spinning through the intersection. The passenger and driver of the vehicle were not injured. The man also was not injured. See SPOT/5A ;

~The Book of the Hunt~ Chapter OneMature
"Hah!" A heavy hand slammed down upon the varnished oak table, setting off a rattling of various bottles and glasses that littered the overly abused surface, "You're a bluffing bastard of a whore!" The voice bellowed out in tones lined with whisky accent. The voice belonged to a rather obese man, narrowing his beady eyes across the table. Cheeks glistening with perspiration and candlelight as his arm rose in an awkward path, five copper coins tumbled out onto the growing pile that rested in the center of the table. Across the table, a pensive expression returned the beady-eyed scrutiny.
"Am I? Are you certain?" The calm voice responded to the accusation, a steady tapping of fingers upon the pile of face-down cards before him. A subtle quirk to his brow added further accent to his words as he examined the larger sour smelling man sitting opposite of him. A dry smirk came to his thin lips, flicking his eyes down upon the added coin before returning them to his opponent. "Such a brave and bold move, Horian." He was grasping for straws at the moment, waiting for his chance. It was quite simple to outwit Horian. Losing a few hands here and there in the beginning would give him enough time to see the flaw, and the dead giveaway in his company's game. It was almost too easy. As it was, he had already won back his losses from his opponent by double. The constant flow of spirits was also helping his cause.
"Ah...don't think your arrogant talk is going to scare..." Horian paused abruptly, jerking upwards just the slightest bit in his seat. His closed fist flung up to his pursed lips. With a stammering blink, the large man belched, hardly muting the sound in his fist, "...scare me, Darius!" On cue, with his vile belch, Horian dropped his other hand to the table. Perfectly, the overly varnished tabletop reflected the cards suits and values, allowing them to be seen by a fleeting glance of Darius.
"Yes, well, perhaps I took you for a fool my dear friend" Darius put on an expression of sheer shock, such as one might make upon being caught in an incriminating act, in reaction to increased pot of coins. Horian did have a quite impressive hand indeed, Darius would give him that. It would easily take the pot, over the garbage deal Darius was holding. Best let the giant oaf win. It keeps him excited. Even still, he'd only be winning back his own coin, so there was no downside for Darius, "Ready my dear friend?" he darted his cold eyes up across the table.
