10 Ways To Make Canada's 150th As Big And Memorable As Possible
Whether it was Big for you or not, you need to start planning for next summer -- Canada's 150th -- right now. Because waiting till next June to plan your July 1st will attach a lifetime of bad memories to the word "staycation."
So here are 10 ways to make next summer as big, memorable and different as possible. They all acknowledge that our huge nation with its tiny population density will be swarming with visitors, including millions of Canadians.
1. Go where others don't. Canada has 47 National Parks. Yet the big ones like Banff and Jasper are already groaning from too many visitors. Banff alone had 10 per cent more people this year past and the most since 2000. Think what it will be next summer. Instead, why not head to Gros Morne in Newfoundland whose fjords are every bit as beautiful as Norway's. Or Georgian Bay Islands National Park, just a two-hour drive from Toronto and eerily like a Tom Thomson painting.
2. Invite the relatives (Part 1). Multi-generational travel is all the rage, with granddad happily picking up the tab. But pick a place (Canada has thousands of mountaintops and seaside coves) everyone can enjoy and whose backdrops will turn group shots into family heirlooms.
3. Invite the relatives (Part 2). What better excuse to re-connect with family members you've avoided for years than by inviting them to a Sesquicentennial Reunion. That way, you win points for reaching out, and you don't have to talk to them for another 50 years at least -- 2065, when we celebrate our bi-centennial.
4. Invite the Relatives (Part 3). Millions of us come from outside Canada. In fact, the majority of Torontonians were born outside the country. So rather than heading back to Italy, Jamaica, Scotland, Philippines or Russia to see your cousins, invite them to come here next year. Only your Russian relatives won't be impressed by all our open space.
5. Support our indigenous people. Ninety per cent of our land mass is in what's called "The North." So why not head there -- to Churchill, Manitoba to mingle with the polar bears; or hike Yukon's Chilcoot Trail, the outdoor museum about the Gold Rush of 1898; or camp out in the newly-created Torngat Mountains National Park in Labrador.
6. Invite our newest people. Canada just took in 25,000 Syrian refugees. Why not reach out to them -- and to all our other new immigrants -- and make them part of our first 150 years too? After all, millions of us are either immigrants or our forebears were. Indeed, we're not only a nation of immigrants, we're Canadian because of our diversity.
7. Do something you'd only do once every 150 years. If you're a foodie, visit every one of Canada's Top 10 restaurants. If you're a winey, visit Canada's growing number of wine-producing regions. Or, now that global warming has made it possible to sail from west to east through the NorthWest Passage, why not do that before everyone does?
8. Create 150th anniversary traditions you can repeat every year. I know a family whose four members each plan to learn a new skill next year -- from playing the saxophone, to doing fine woodwork, to writing a family history, to running a marathon. Then, starting in 2018 -- our 151st anniversary -- they'll take four short breaks to immerse themselves into each of their brood's newly-learned skills.
9. Take a road trip. We have 1,042 million kilometres of roads, thousands of tiny towns, huge mountains, vast prairies and infinite shorelines. What better way to bond with the family than bundling them all into the car and setting off on a road less traveled. And don't worry if you get lost. That's precisely the point. As they say: "Adventure is not in the guidebook and beauty is not on the map."
10. Overspend. What's an anniversary but a pre-approved excuse to spend more than you've budgeted? So if you 've dreamed of helihiking in the Rockies at $1,000 a day or bunking in at Newfoundland's Fogo island Inn at $1,675 a night, now's the time to act with deliberate unreason. But start saving now for your iconic Canadian experiences -- and start planning for them now, too.
Because next summer comes around only every 150 years. Time for all of us to come around now to make it our best birthday ever.

Kluane National Park Location: Haines Junction, Yukon Why you should go: "Hiking trails right at the campground, a boardwalk at Kathleen Lake and it's pretty nice for families to go swimming if they are brave enough," says Sylvie Gewehr of Parks Canada. "We also have campfire talks in the evening [that are] great for the family." Sites available: Kathleen Lake campground with 39 sites; backcountry as well.
Twin Falls Gorge Territorial Park Location: An hour away from Hay River, N.W.T. Why you should go: Capture the views of Alexandra and Louise Falls from look-out points, take a 2 km hike along the Hay River and for any travellers in late August and September, watch out for Aurora season, Briony Wright of NWT Parks says. Sites available: 28 power sites and shower and bathroom facilities.
Ivvavik National Park Location: Inuvik, N.W.T. (Remote access) Why you should go: Geographically, Ivvavik National Park is located in the Yukon, but to access it, you have to go through Inuvik, N.W.T. "It's fly-in only so obviously people can visit on their own but because of the logistical challenges, Parks Canada offers base camp trips in Imniarvik [within the camp]," says spokesperson Sarah Culley. When you're there, activities include rafting, daily guided hikes and a cultural host who can share stories. Sites available: Besides the base camps (starting at $3,375), you can also backcountry. "You can camp anywhere you want in the park as long as it's not on a cultural site. We also encourage people to practice zero trace camping — take everything back with you."
Sylvia Grinnell Territorial Park Location: Iqaluit, Nunavut Why you should go: Explore the park's archaeological sites, hike through the River Valley route and spot caribou throughout the province's season, Nunavut Tourism notes. And according to many of the park's Trip Advisor reviews, it's a quiet spot you don't want to miss if you're in the city! Sites available: Backcountry options along the riverbank.
Tombstone Territorial Park Location: Dawson City, Yukon Why you should go: "Take the Golden Sides hike [and] the Grizzly trail hike or go fishing," a park spokesperson says. You should also check out the best look-out spots to see Tombstone Mountains. Sites available: 33 campgrounds in total, backcountry, group camping.
Watson Lake Campground Location: Watson Lake, Yukon Why you should go: Hit the trails, check out the beach and check out the famous Sign Post Forest before or after your stay. One thing reviews will say about this park is how private it is. Sites available: According to RV Park Reviews, Watson Lake has 55 sites for tent camping and the town itself also has two RV sites.
Fred Henne Territorial Park Location: Yellowknife, N.W.T. Why you should go: "Spend the day at Long Lake [and] relax on the sandy beach, play at the park and enjoy a refreshing swim," Wright says. You can also take advantage of hiking, canoeing and jet skiing. Sites available: 89 powered sites, 29-non powered sites and 19 tent pads. PHOTO: Instagram/oldtownpaddle
Sirmilik National Park Location: Qikiqtaaluk, Nunavut Why you should go: Sea kayaking (keep in mind you must dress appropriately for the freezing weather), skiing and don't forget to hike through Bylot Island (pictured here). Sites available: Backcountry (you will need a permit, however). Again there are several rules before setting up a tent as well as what to do with food and waste.
Nahanni National Park Reserve Of Canada Location: Fort Simpson, N.W.T. (Note, Nahanni National Park Reserve Of Canada can only be accessed by air (local airlines) or a hike-in from Fort Simpson). Why you should go: "There are a variety of things to do and each is unique on their own," a Parks Canada spokesperson says. If you want to do a day trip, a tour is probably your best bet — this way you can sample a bit of everything. Activities at the park include paddling down the river, the famous tufa mounds hike at Rabbitkettle (a rare geological site) and hot springs accessible along the river. Sites available: Backcountry
Tuktut Nogait National Park Location: Paulatuk, N.W.T. (Note, this park can be accessed by land through the Inuvialuit lands, by water and by air (this can be costly, however). Why you should go: "The park is really about the canyon, the caribou and culture with over 400 cultural sites," Culley says. Paddle along the river and hike through the tundra. Sites available: Similar to Ivvavik National Park, this park also has base camps through Park Canada but Culley adds there is less infrastructure. "We literally bring everything with us and bring it out. It is super remote and an awesome experience," she says, adding this is not a type of camping trip for someone who is used to car camping. Backcountry is also available.
Naats'Ihch'oh National Park Reserve Location: Tulita, N.W.T. Why you should go: According to the park's site, Naats'Ihch'oh has everything from challenging hiking to paddling through five bodies of rivers to soaking in hot springs. Sites available: Backcountry
Auyuittuq National Park Location: Baffin Island, Nunavut (Note, you must fly in). Why you should go: "Sightseeing the mountain glaciers, ideal for hiking and skiing in the winter," a park spokesperson says. If you are hiking, some of the challenges can include crossing rivers, but for the most part, they aren't difficult. Rock climbing is also popular. Sites available: Backcountry, but there are some rules you have to follow before pitching up a tent.
Prelude Lake Territorial Park Location: Yellowknife, N.W.T. Why you should go: Rent a boat, check out the hiking trails and don't forget to check out one of the park's many islands, NWT Parks notes. Sites available: 44 camping sites at the park. Photo: Instagram/companynotch
Fort Simpson Territorial Park Location: Fort Simpson, N.W.T. Why you should go: Take a historic tour through Fort Simpson, go bird watching or take a day trip to Nahanni National Park by air, Wright says. Sites available: 31 camp sites and bathroom facilities are included.
Ja'k Territorial Park Location: Inuvik, N.W.T. Why you should go: "[Take] a trip down the Dempster Highway which stretches 740 km from Inuvik, N.W.T. to Dawson City, Yukon. The impressive route takes drivers through three mountain ranges and three ecological areas," Wright says. At the park you can also go berry picking and check out the observation tower for bird watching. Sites available: 11 power sites, 24 non-powered sites.
Quttinirpaaq National Park Location: Iqaluit, Nunavut (Note, fly-in option through Parks Canada) Why you should go: The park recommends hiking through the park's remote landscapes (there is even a 14-day guided hike) and brushing up on your photography skills — what a view. Sites available: Backcountry with an emphasis on lightweight and durable luggage. Again, there are several rules to follow before setting up a tent — just like all the parks in Nunavut.

WASHINGTON Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Tuesday that the administration remains opposed to a permanent extension of tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans, something strongly favored by Republicans.
And he said it is critical for Congress to resolve the issue before the end of the year.
Geithner said the administration wants to see a permanent extension of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts for families making less than $250,000 a year. He said a permanent extension of tax cuts for households making more than that would be expensive.
But during an appearance at a forum for corporate executives, Geithner seemed to leave the door open for a temporary extension of tax cuts for the wealthy.
Geithner said it is important to resolve the issue before the tax cuts expire on Dec. 31.
"It has to be done," Geithner said during his appearance before a business forum sponsored by the Wall Street Journal. "It is very important for Congress to act on this before they leave town. ... It would not be a responsible act of government to leave this level of uncertainty hanging until next year."
Congress returned this week for a lame-duck session following the November elections. One of the biggest agenda items is what to do with the temporary tax cuts approved during the Bush administration in 2001 and 2003, set to expire at the end of this year.
Geithner said the administration would approach the upcoming debate using the guiding principles of what is best for economic growth and the middle class.
He said he believes the dispute can be worked out fairly quickly and it is important to do so to resolve economic uncertainty.
On a separate issue, Geithner said there is a big debate going on inside China over how fast to allow its currency rise in value.
"China is letting its currency rise, and it is rising very gradually," Geithner said. "They are very adverse to a precipitous large move (in the value of their currency), which I understand."
Geithner said it is important that China's currency continue to rise in value not only to deal with imbalances in the global economy but also to deal with rising inflation pressures inside China.
A currency that is undervalued relative to other currencies makes China's products cheaper for foreign buyers, boosting Chinese exports.

Hey, the story is beautiful. I found myself smiling a couple of times. Just a tiny thing that spoiled the effect in the end - in the last sentence, it should be §forgot§ instead of §forget§. Just a detail, but you might consider fixing it if you get around it. Anyway, thanks for the great story!

Aw that was sweet!
Kudos to you :)

People around the country are starting to notice Northwestern is 5-0. Too bad some of its own students haven't.
Running back Tyrell Sutton has seen increased fan support on campus but still gets frustrated with the abundance of support for other Big Ten teams by his peers.
"I've seen some people on campus decide to jump on the bandwagon," the senior said. "We want people to stop wearing Michigan shirts and Ohio State shirts and start representing our school and bleeding purple. That's one of the biggest things that, as upperclassmen, we're trying to change around the school."
Sutton isn't the only Wildcat to notice. Senior linebacker Mike Dinard illustrated a cartoon for the school newspaper that commented on the same subject.
The Wildcats (along with No. 6 Penn State) are one of only 15 unbeatens left in the Football Bowl Subdivision. This is their best start since going 6-0 in 1962.
BE LIKE JOEPA: Remember two years ago when Penn State coach Joe Paterno went to the locker room in the first half of the game at Ohio State because he was suffering from the flu?
Seems you don't have to be an octogenarian to encounter that problem on a football field.
Ohio State offensive lineman Steve Rehring disappeared from the Ohio State sideline during crucial points of the close game at Wisconsin on Saturday night.
Fellow lineman Alex Boone picks up the story.
"Someone said he had to go to the bathroom and I'm, like, 'What? Who leaves a football game to go to the bathroom?"' he said. "That's like Joe Paterno style."
FAMILY CONNECTION: Minnesota tight end Jack Simmons went to coach Tim Brewster in the offseason with a simple request - on Senior Day he wanted to wear No. 15, which his father wore for the Gophers.
Brewster did him one better, suggesting Simmons switch from No. 80 for the entire season.
So at Christmas, Simmons got an old Minnesota jersey with No. 15 and had his name stitched on the back and gave it to his father, Terry.
"He thought it was just a gift," said Simmons, who has 11 catches and a touchdown for the 5-1 Gophers. "Then I explained to him that I switched my number. It was a cool moment."
It served him well in the offseason, when Jack Simmons suffered a foot injury and went through a grueling rehab to get ready for his final season in maroon in gold.
"It was great for me in terms of, when I'm having a difficult day with the injury and I don't feel like doing the rehab, I can look down and remember who I'm representing," Jack Simmons said. "That's really an honor."
HOOSIER DADDY: Indiana doesn't have its way with many teams in the Big Ten, but try telling that to Iowa. The Hoosiers and their spread offense have baffled the Hawkeyes in each of their last two meetings, scoring 69 points en route to a pair of wins.
Indiana rallied for a 31-28 upset in 2006, kicking off a stretch that saw Iowa stumble from the Top 25 to a 6-7 finish. Last season, Kellen Lewis threw for 322 yards and the Hoosiers dominated the Hawkeyes, 38-20.
The pair meet again on Saturday in a game that Iowa simply must win. The Hawkeyes have lost three straight by a total of nine points, and their toughest stretch of the season - Wisconsin, Illinois and No. 6 Penn State - is still ahead.
LOUD CROWDS: As Illinois coach Ron Zook pleaded this week for a big homecoming crowd at Memorial Stadium Saturday for a game against Minnesota, Illini players talked about how they fed off the six-figure road crowds they played in front of the past two weeks.
The Illini, whose home stadium seats about 62,000, played in front of 100,000-plus two weeks ago in a loss at Penn State and last Saturday in a win at Michigan.
Receiver Arrelious Benn, who had six catches for 122 yards and a touchdown in the 45-20 win over Michigan, said there's nothing quite like the noise of a big, hostile road crowd, or the hush that follows a big play.
"It's a pretty big, fun feeling to prove something to thousands of people who don't think you can do it, and to hear the silence after you make a big play," he said.
DAZED AND CONFUSED: Wisconsin's confusion on Terrelle Pryor's go-ahead, 11-yard touchdown run with 1:08 left in Ohio State's 20-17 win wasn't just on the field.
Coach Bret Bielema said he thought his defense was in a better position from his vantage point on the sideline. Turns out, his linebackers weren't prepared for the snap, allowing Pryor to reach the end zone virtually untouched.
"From what I saw on the field, I didn't feel we were in as bad a position as I saw when we watched the film," Bielema said.
Wisconsin, which had a timeout remaining, didn't call one. But Bielema said it's up to the coaching staff to make that decision - not the players on the field - and his defensive assistants watching upstairs didn't alert him.
The Badgers never got to use that timeout on their ensuing possession, either, after throwing an interception on the next offensive play with 53 seconds left.
NORWOOD'S HAMMY: WR Jordan Norwood expects to return Saturday night for No. 6 Penn State's game at Wisconsin following a two-game layoff for a strained left hamstring.
It was a frustrating time for the senior, a starter since his freshman season in 2005. He's emerged to become the Nittany Lions' most reliable receiver.
"It's been tough. I think 'going nuts' is the right phrase to use," Norwood said about the wait.
Norwood had been a favorite target for Daryll Clark over the season's first four games with 18 catches for 318 yards and four touchdowns.
QUICK-HITTERS: Williams, Illinois LB Brit Miller and Ks Brett Swenson of Michigan State and Joel Monroe of Minnesota were the conference's players of the week. ... Michigan State RB Javon Ringer is tied for the NCAA lead in rushing TDs with 12 in six games and is second in rushing yards with 164.7 per game heading into Saturday's game at Northwestern. A year ago, Wildcats QB C.J. Bacher threw for 520 yards and 5 TDs with no interceptions. ... Michigan and Toledo, despite being just 43 miles apart, meet for the first time on Saturday.

Man indicted on charges he smuggled drugs through OIA
ORLANDO, Fla. - A man from the Dominican Republic was indicted by a federal grand jury after authorities said he was caught smuggling drugs into Orlando on a flight to Orlando International Airport.
Agents said Henry Guzman Martinez brought a stash of cocaine to Orlando on a JetBlue flight from Santo Domingo.
"Anybody that is dealing drugs, they need to get the stiffest penalty they have out for them," said traveler Rollins Mohammed.
When a federal officer inspected Martinez's bag, he found five brick-shaped packages inside. They allegedly contained coffee and 6 kilograms of cocaine.
Martinez's indictment marks the second time this week WFTV has reported on drugs being smuggled through OIA.
A man was arrested on charges that he smuggled more than 3 kilos of heroin inside his carry-on bag on a JetBlue flight.
His family was with him during transport.
A spokesperson with Homeland Security investigations couldn't say if the smuggling problem is more rampant at OIA compared to other airports.
He said the government has groups of agents at major airports, like Orlando, to combat smuggling.
They work with state and local agencies to utilize specially trained dogs to find the drugs before they get off airport grounds.
The suspect told federal investigators that he was unemployed and lived in Puerto Rico.

Liberal Opinion Week
Following the 2016 election, some readers have accused me of being out of touch with the Real America -- that mythic locale inhabited by people who vote like them and watch the same TV shows they do.
"Duck Dynasty," for example, a program I watched on an assignment that bears about as close a resemblance to the rural South as "Gomer Pyle" did to the U.S. Marines. Real Americans supposedly love that show, a cornball sitcom about a family of heavily bearded children who get into harmless scrapes involving guns and explosives.
No thanks. My own children are grown.
So in an effort to measure my Real America quotient, I recently took a year-end celebrity quiz in the morning newspaper. You know, which celebrities got married, divorced, won awards, had children, got cancelled, excommunicated or pistol-whipped during 2016?
Just kidding. To my knowledge, no red carpet habitues actually got shunned by the Pope or beaten senseless, although somebody called Kim Kardashian apparently did get robbed of her jewels at gunpoint.

When a billionaire does it, that means that it is not corrupt.
That seems to be an animating principle of the incoming Trump administration. Although to be fair, in what amounts to a populist touch, this will probably apply to select millionaires as well. At least the ones worth a solid eight figures.
It comes from the top. We've never had a president with the kind of conflicts of interest that Donald Trump does. And it's not just that he's wealthier than past denizens of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
It's that other presidents have either sold their assets and had someone else buy them new ones without telling them what they are - an actual blind trust - or only had a vanilla portfolio of Treasury bonds and mutual funds that didn't create any potential for self-dealing.
They didn't do this because they were required to by law. They're not. They did it because it seemed required by good governance.
Donald Trump rightly reprimanded House Republicans on Tuesday for their move to disembowel the Office of Congressional Ethics, but let's not be duped or dumb. This was like a crackhead dad fuming at his kids for smoking a little weed.
Their conduct hardly measured up to his, which obviously encouraged it. When they look at him, here's what they see: a presidential candidate who broke with decades of precedent by refusing to release his tax returns and thus shine a light on his conflicts of interest. A president-elect who has yet to spell out how he would eliminate those conflicts — and who has, instead, repeatedly reminded reporters and voters that he's under no explicit legal obligation to eliminate them at all. A plutocrat whose children have toggled back and forth between his government activities and his corporate interests, raising questions about the separation of the two.
Is it any wonder that House Republicans felt OK about trying to slip free of some of their own ethical shackles, no matter how ugly the optics?
It started, as so many things do these days, with a tweet.
The New York Times political reporter Maggie Haberman, covering Donald Trump's New Year's Eve festivities, observed Saturday night that Joe Scarborough and his MSNBC co-host Mika Brzezinski were among the president-elect's Mar-a-Lago revelers.
Indeed, they were there. Haberman wasn't making a judgment, just reporting. The former CBS reporter Sopan Deb (soon to join the Times) took it further, describing them as "partying" with Trump.
Scarborough, a former Republican congressman from Florida, wasn't having any of it. He shot back at Deb, charging "fake news."
Under Deb's questioning, Scarborough explained that his and Brzezinski's purpose was professional, not social. The morning-talk duo was just trying to line up an interview with Trump. They were not partying, and, Scarborough later stressed, they were "dramatically underdressed," and he was headed home soon to a quiet night with his kids.
Did the House Republicans already suffer their first defeat of 2017? Or is their retreat only tactical and temporary?
After voting on Monday night to gut the Office of Congressional Ethics -- with no advance warning -- they backed off the decision on Tuesday. The office is the independent body established by a new Democratic majority in 2008 in response to multiple scandals in the Republican-majority House.
From Monday night to Tuesday noon, there was a media and Twitter firestorm, including tweets from President-elect Donald Trump, who opposed the timing of the scuttling of the ethics office, but not the substance of it.
For some perspective, let's step back and ask: Why should the House have any ethics oversight at all, let alone an independent role? After all, the voters can punish members who disgrace themselves. House members have to run every two years (compared with six years for the Senate). Plenty of politicians who get into trouble have chosen to resign rather than wait for the voters' verdict, while many others have simply chosen not to run for re-election.
Software has started writing poetry, sports stories and business news. IBM's Watson is co-writing pop hits. Uber has begun deploying self-driving taxis on real city streets and, last month, Amazon delivered its first package by drone to a customer in rural England.
Add it all up and you quickly realize that Donald Trump's election isn't the only thing disrupting society today. The far more profound disruption is happening in the workplace and in the economy at large, as the relentless march of technology has brought us to a point where machines and software are not just outworking us but starting to outthink us in more and more realms.
To reflect on this rapid change, I sat down with my teacher and friend Dov Seidman, CEO of LRN, which advises companies on leadership and how to build ethical cultures, for his take.
"I mean, how do you know what you're going to do until you do it? The answer is you don't . . . I swear it's a stupid question." – Holden Caulfield, "Catcher in the Rye."
The thing about young Holden is that you have no idea what he is going to do or say, and neither does he...
Apologies if you read that opening quote and assumed it to be a midnight tweet or an interview brush-off from Donald Trump.
Admit it: Even a staunch Trump supporter would assume (and celebrate?) that the line could come straight from his well-oiled jaws.
Whole gobs of what J.D. Salinger imagines depicts his ramblingly neurotic teen, even Holden's syntax, match up with Trump-speak – including insults and obscenities.
But the objective as we go forward should be to focus not so much on
Trump's words but on his policy actions as they occur or are proposed.
The new year could be turbulent for religion in America.
Several hot-button issues - including immigration, abortion, poverty, health care, education and religious freedom - will put religion near the center of public life.
Observers are watching how Donald Trump's relationship with Muslims in the United States and abroad will unfold, after he campaigned on a pledge to ban Muslim immigrants. Will he deliver on his promises to evangelicals? With reports of rising incidents of Islamophobia and anti-Semitism during the 2016 campaign, activists will need to ramp up their efforts to counter bigotry.
Republicans will control the presidency and both houses of Congress. That could bring more focus on religious freedom bills in 2017, setting off more debate over how the government can - or can't - force faith organizations to handle gay rights and access to contraception and abortion for employees. Meanwhile, many religiously motivated activists will be tracking changes to the Supreme Court (as Trump has promised to appoint justices who oppose abortion), and to the possible defunding of Planned Parenthood and overturning of the Affordable Care Act.
In 2015 the city of Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan, was graced with a new public monument: a giant gold-plated sculpture portraying the country's president on horseback. This may strike you as a bit excessive. But cults of personality are actually the norm in the "stans," the Central Asian countries that emerged after the fall of the Soviet Union, all of which are ruled by strongmen who surround themselves with tiny cliques of wealthy crony capitalists.
Americans used to find the antics of these regimes, with their tinpot dictators, funny. But who's laughing now?
We are, after all, about to hand over power to a man who has spent his whole adult life trying to build a cult of personality around himself; remember, his "charitable" foundation spent a lot of money buying a 6-foot portrait of its founder. Meanwhile, one look at his Twitter account is enough to show that victory has done nothing to slake his thirst for ego gratification. So we can expect lots of self-aggrandizement once he's in office. I don't think it will go as far as gold-plated statues, but really, who knows?
Among the more pernicious aspects of the Donald Trump phenomenon is the way his political success has elevated the deplorable pollution of conscientious American journalism with a new form of manipulating and deceiving public opinion -- what is now widely referred to as "fake news."
Trump did not, of course, invent this phenomenon that now corrupts the pool of information that now daily affects what Americans rely on in forming their judgments about public affairs and the high-profile figures whose words and actions dominate the national discourse.
But during his successful presidential campaign and since then, Trump has been both a principal trafficker in misinformation. He recently claimed falsely that he really won the popular vote, when it was carried by Hillary Clinton by nearly 3 million ballots in the official count.

Lachlan Murdoch's plan to launch his own media empire by taking Australia's Consolidated Media Holdings private with his long-time friend and onetime business partner James Packer has come undone. The $3.2-billion deal reportedly began to unravel after th e private equity firm Providence Equity Partners said it was not prepared to pay the original price for Consolidated after the company's shares fell on the Sydney Stock Exchange. Consolidated Media's holdings include stakes in the Nine Network and the pay TV operator Foxtel. Murdoch said early today that his investment company, Illyria, was "not in a position to proceed with the indicative proposal due to material changes in the overall transaction terms." The collapse of the deal was viewed as a stunning setback for the younger Murdoch, who in 2005 left News Corp, his father's media empire, to return to Australia, start his own business, and "be my own man."

XRD, SEM, bulk density and dielectric properties measurements were used to investigate the effect of TiO2 nanopowder substitution for conventional TiO2 micro-powder on the sintering and electric properties of PZT ceramics. Results revealed that the sintering temperature of dense Pb(Zr0.53Ti0.47)O3 ceramics was lowered about 50°C ~ 100°C when 20% and 40% of conventional TiO2 micro-powder was substituted by TiO2 nanopowder. The electric properties were kept or even enhanced in the PZT ceramics adopted the TiO2 nanopowder.

Obesity Solutions
Obesity Solutions - Specializing in gastric bypass surgery, a weight loss program to treat morbid obesity
With more than 30 years of experience in bariatric surgery, Obesity Solutions Medical Director Dr. Dan Procter is passionate about helping people who suffer from morbid obesity. "Our surgical weight loss procedure isn't a rapid weight loss gimmick," says Dr. Procter. "Gastric bypass surgery has changed the lives of literally thousands of people who thought there was no hope for morbid obesity."
Gastric Bypass Surgery
Today there are hundreds of weight loss diets and weight loss programs. Unfortunately, studies show that up to 95% of people who lose weight non-surgically regain that weight, and sometimes more.
Gastric bypass surgery - or "stomach stapling" - as a treatment for morbid obesity has been around for more than 30 years. Our laparoscopic gastric bypass technique is minimally invasive which allows for more precision, less trauma to the patient, and therefore quicker healing after weight loss surgery.

Twenty-first-century cosmologists, historians and archaeologists continue to seek a true portrait of the great astronomer and his contribution
Dennis Danielson
The Copernican principle—that Earth's location, despite naive appearances, is not central in any cosmologically significant way—has been widely and persistently interpreted as entailing our planet's "demotion" within the great scheme of things. When Hermann Bondi coined the phrase in the 1950s, the principle had already—since a century after Copernicus's death—been read as implying Earth's (and thus humankind's) cosmic mediocrity. The author, a science historian, disputes this interpretation, showing instead how Earth's planetary status, when first proposed, was viewed as a promotion. He goes on to discuss the Copernican principle in relation to the cosmological principle, an idea which was at first wed to the now abandoned steady-state cosmology, and describes its survival. History and literature from Aristotle to Dante to Galileo, as well as interviews with contemporary cosmologists, tell the story of how the Copernican principle arose and was eventually adapted to Big Bang cosmology, but is now increasingly under scrutiny. The interviews reveal that both the Copernican principle and the robust spirit that fired Copernicus's achievement retain active if controversial roles in astrophysical thought.

Following in the footsteps of the runaway success of its collaboration with Versace earlier this month, Swedish retail giant H&M has announced its next big-name link-up.
Fans of the Milan-based label Marni will be marking 8 March 2012 in their diaries to be first in the queue when the boho-luxe designs drop into 260 stores worldwide.
Like its collaborative predecessor Versace, Marni is famed for its use of print – though where the former trades in baroque glamour, Marni offers playful, craft-based designs. Where the Italian labels do greatly depart is their signature silhouette – Marni is known for its crisply cut, demure and oversized pieces while Versace specialises in body-conscious, va-va-voom glamour.
The collection for H&M will revisit the favourite pieces of Marni's founder and creative director, Consuelo Castiglioni. "As always," said Ms Castiglioni, "I love juxtaposing prints and colours, mixing modern tribal with Bauhaus graphic, adding sporty utilitarian elements."
The signature silhouette of Marni – founded in 1994 by Swiss-born Castiglioni – provides a relaxed working wardrobe for its customers, thanks to full-pleated skirts and dresses, cropped trousers and jacquard knits. There is a bold use of print and colour – referencing African inspiration and geometric designs – on a range of fabrics from silk to crisp cotton poplin. The collection will include jewellery, shoes, bags and scarves.
Men, too, will have the chance to buy into the brand at a fraction of the price. The menswear offering will be a more relaxed take on the staples. The use of print for men will be subtle – a lining of a suit or a contrast detail on a shirt – while the silhouette will remain a modern and relaxed take on the classics inherent within the brand's DNA.
"Marni has such a modern touch with everything they do, mixing prints and accessories in a playful but chic way," said Margareta van den Bosch, creative adviser for H&M. "It's fantastic to see how Castiglioni co-ordinates her designs, matching new combinations of print and colour, with such incredible craftsmanship behind every piece".
The success of the Versace collaboration was in part due to expert timing – the party-perfect pieces arrived just in time for the festive season. The Marni pieces will arrive at just the right time to refresh spring wardrobes.
The collection will also be available online, although many shoppers were frustrated when the company's servers failed to stand up to demand over the Versace offering.
A second Versace collaboration for pre-spring will be available in January as an online-only offering.
A roster of collaborations with big-name fashion houses has bolstered H&M's reputation, kick-started by 2004's sell-out collection from Karl Lagerfeld. Stella McCartney, Comme des Garçons and Lanvin have all caused consumer mayhem – with customers queuing round the block for designer collections at a fraction of the usual price. Marni is no stranger to collaboration either – in June 2010 it worked with Los Angeles denim label Current/Elliott.

A man has been charged after allegedly plotting to throw horse manure over Prince Charles and Camilla.
Castislav Bacanov, a 'known anti-royalist', was caught in Auckland, New Zealand with a bucket of watered-down manure on Monday (November 12).
He was stationed in the quayside less than an hour before the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall were to make an appearance.
Prince Charles and Camilla are currently visiting the country as part of their week-long Diamond Jubilee tour.
Bacanov, 76, pleaded not guilty in court to accusations that he was planning to commit a crime in a public place. He was granted bail but was ordered to maintain at least 500 metres between him and the royal couple.
The native Yugoslavian has been scheduled to re-appear in court on November 27.

- 2 jalapeños
- 2 cups finely shredded roast chicken
- 4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (1 cup)
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- Salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 12 corn tortillas
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 4 radishes, very thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
Skewer the jalapeños on a metal skewer or fork and roast over a flame until blackened, 3 minutes. Wrap in foil and let cool slightly. Rub off the skins and remove the seeds, then finely chop. Transfer the jalapeños to a bowl and add the chicken, cheese and cumin. Season with salt and pepper; toss well.
Wrap half of the tortillas in a towel and microwave at high power for 1 minute, until pliable. Arrange the tortillas on a surface and pack half of the chicken filling into cylinders across the bottoms. Tightly roll the tortillas around the filling, securing with toothpicks. Repeat to form the remaining flautas.
In a large skillet, heat 1/4 inch of oil. Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Fry half of the flautas over moderate heat, turning, until golden and crisp all over and heated through, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Fry the remaining flautas.
In a bowl, toss the radishes with the cilantro, onion and lime juice; season with salt and pepper. Remove the toothpicks and serve the flautas with the radish salad.

One of the most important of all the popular film composers, Harry Warren (born Salvatore Guaragna Warren) is probably best remembered for the innovative 30s film musicals he scored with lyricist Al Dubin. A son of Italian immigrants, from a family of 12, Warren taught himself to play accordion and piano, and joined a touring carnival show in his teens. Later, he worked in a variety of jobs at the Vitagraph film studios, and played piano in silent-movie houses. After serving in the US Navy in World War I, he started writing songs. The first, 'I Learned To Love You When I Learned My ABCs', gained him a job as a song-plugger for publishers Stark and Cowan, and in 1922 they published his 'Rose Of The Rio Grande', written with Edgar Leslie and Ross Gorman, which became a hit for popular vocalist Marion Harris. During the remainder of the 20s, his most successful songs were 'I Love My Baby, My Baby, Loves Me' (with Bud Green), '(Home In) Pasadena' (with Edgar Leslie and Grant Clarke) and 'Nagasaki' (with Mort Dixon). In the early 30s Warren contributed songs to several Broadway shows including Billy Rose's revue Sweet And Low ('Cheerful Little Earful' and 'Would You Like To Take A Walk"'), Crazy Quilt ('I Found A Million-Dollar Baby (In A Five-And-Ten-Cent Store)'), and Ed Wynn's 1931 hit, The Laugh Parade, ('Ooh! That Kiss', 'The Torch Song' and 'You're My Everything').
Another of his 1931 songs, 'By The River St. Marie', was a number 1 hit for Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians. Between 1929 and 1932, Warren wrote for a few minor movies, but made Hollywood his permanent home in 1933, when hired by Darryl F. Zanuck to work with Al Dubin on Warner Brothers' first movie-musical, 42nd Street. Starring Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler and Bebe Daniels, and choreographed by Busby Berkeley, the film included songs such as 'Shuffle Off To Buffalo', 'You're Getting To Be A Habit With Me' and 'Young And Healthy'. During the 30s, Warren and Dubin wrote songs for some 20 films, including several starring Dick Powell, such as Gold Diggers Of 1933 (1933, 'We're In The Money', 'Pettin' In The Park', 'Shadow Waltz', and the powerful plea on behalf of the ex-servicemen, victims of the Depression, 'Remember My Forgotten Man'), Footlight Parade (1933, co-starring James Cagney, and featuring 'Shanghai Lil'), Dames (1934, 'I Only Have Eyes For You'), Twenty Million Sweethearts (1934, I'll String Along With You'), Gold Diggers Of 1935 (Warren's first Oscar-winner 'Lullaby Of Broadway', effectively sung by Wini Shaw, and 'The Words Are In My Heart'), Broadway Gondolier (1935, 'Lulu's Back In Town'), Gold Diggers Of 1937 (1936, 'All's Fair In Love And War' and 'With Plenty Of Money And You', and Gold Diggers In Paris (1938, 'I Wanna Go Back To Bali', 'The Latin Quarter', 'Put That Down In Writing', and 'A Stranger In Paree').
The team's other scores included the Eddie Cantor vehicle, Roman Scandals (1933, 'Keep Young And Beautiful'), Go Into Your Dance (1935, starring Al Jolson and his wife, Ruby Keeler, and featuring 'A Latin From Manhattan' and 'About A Quarter To Nine'), Moulin Rouge (1934, with Constance Bennett and Franchot Tone, and the song, 'The Boulevard Of Broken Dreams').
Warren and Dubin also contributed some numbers to Melody For Two (1937), including one of their evergreens, 'September In The Rain'. Shortly before taking his leave of Warners and Dubin in 1939, Warren teamed with Johnny Mercer to write songs for two more Dick Powell films, Going Places (1938) with Louis Armstrong and Maxine Sullivan singing the Academy Award nominee, 'Jeepers Creepers', and Hard To Get (1938, 'You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby'). Warren's move to 20th Century-Fox led him to work with lyricist Mack Gordon, whose main collaborator was Harry Revel. During the 40s, Warren and Gordon wrote some of World War II's most evocative songs. They composed for films such as Down Argentine Way (1940, starring Betty Grable and Don Ameche), Tin Pan Alley (1940, 'You Say The Sweetest Things, Baby', That Night In Rio (1941, featuring Carmen Miranda singing 'I, Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi (I Like You Very Much)'), two films starring Glenn Miller and his Orchestra, Sun Valley Serenade (1941, 'Chattanooga Choo Choo', 'I Know Why', 'It Happened In Sun Valley), and Orchestra Wives (1942, 'Serenade In Blue', 'At Last', 'I Got A Gal In Kalamazoo'), Springtime In The Rockies (1942, 'I Had The Craziest Dream'), Iceland (1942, 'There Will Never Be Another You'), Sweet Rosie O'Grady (1943, 'My Heart Tells Me'), and Hello, Frisco, Hello (1943, starring Alice Faye singing Warren's second Oscar-winner, 'You'll Never Know'). While at Fox Warren also wrote the songs for another Alice Faye movie, in partnership with Leo Robin.
In Busby Berkeley's The Gang's All Here (1943), Faye sang their ballad, 'No Love, No Nothin", while Carmen Miranda was her usual flamboyant self as 'The Lady With The Tutti-Frutti Hat'. Warren wrote his last score at Fox, with Mack Gordon, for the lavish Billy Rose's Diamond Horseshoe (1945), starring Dick Haymes, Betty Grable, and Phil Silvers. Two songs from the film, 'I Wish I Knew' and 'The More I See You', are considered to be among their very best. From 1945-52 Warren worked for MGM Pictures, and won his third Oscar, in partnership with Johnny Mercer, for 'On The Atchison, Topeka, And The Santa Fe', from the Judy Garland/Ray Bolger film, The Harvey Girls (1946). Warren and Mercer also provided songs for the Fred Astaire/Vera-Ellen movie The Belle Of New York, which included 'Baby Doll', 'Seeing's Believing', 'I Wanna Be A Dancin' Man' and 'Bachelor Dinner Song'. In 1949, after 10 years apart, MGM reunited Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, for their last musical together, The Barkleys Of Broadway. The musical score, by Warren and Ira Gershwin included the ballad, 'You'd Be Hard To Replace', the novelty, 'My One And Only Highland Fling' and the danceable 'Shoes With Wings On'.
Other Warren collaborators while he was at MGM included Dorothy Fields, Arthur Freed and Mack Gordon, the latter for some songs to the Judy Garland/Gene Kelly film Summer Stock (1950), including 'If You Feel Like Singing' and 'You, Wonderful You'. In 1952, Warren teamed with lyricist Leo Robin for Paramount's Just For You, starring Bing Crosby and Jane Wyman. The songs included 'A Flight Of Fancy', 'I'll Si Si Ya In Bahia' and 'Zing A Little Zong'. In the following year, together with Jack Brooks, he provided Dean Martin with one of his biggest hits, 'That's Amore', from the film The Caddy (1953), which sold over three million copies. Warren remained under contract to Paramount until 1961, writing mostly scores for dramatic films such as The Rose Tattoo (1955) and An Affair To Remember (1957). In the early 50s he went into semi-retirement. On his 80th birthday he was elected to the Songwriters Hall Of Fame. Warren was one of the most respected and energetic of the songwriters from the 30s, and a year before his death in 1981, many of those hits that he wrote with Al Dubin were celebrated again in Broadway and London stage versions of the movie 42nd Street.

A few photos from last month. I realize this is only.. less than half of what I usually come up with each month, but I guess it was because all the other events already had their own blog entries. Ah, well. The photos above were from:
- A few hours before New Year's Eve
- An afternoon where Yoshi randomly decided to show up and play
- Two nights out for dinner with Aian (Little Tokyo, World Chicken)
- Spontaneous Little Tokyo dinner before Donna left for Bulacan
- My younger brother's birthday dinner at the Hyatt
- A mini-shoot with Christine, Clarisse, Allaine, and Jhe
- Dog-watching + random meeting with Angel and Yapo!
And a few more of last month's highlights:
- A photoshoot with some Tumblr fashion bloggers
- Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School Manila's first event of the year, Dragonfire
- my finally sucking it up and getting my two-tone
- Getting new sponsors for Little Forest Girl -- I'm very grateful! Thank you.
- Also, a lot of things changed for Aian and myself, but I'd like to think we've grown a little because of that :)
The only things I regret about last month, I think, were not being able to do any personal shoots and not being able to read any new books.. which are two of my unwritten resolutions for myself. (Take more pictures, read more books.) I promise to push myself even harder this month.

VICTORIA BECKHAM has gone all twirly.
The latest
Posh look is a mid-length, softly curled style with what looks to be a few
caramel highlights.
The 37-year-old designer tweeted a picture of her discarded hair with the
message "Chopped it off!" on a visit to stylist Ken Paves in LA on Friday.
Victoria seems to change hairstyles almost as often as hubby David does.
Sun Fashion Editor TONI JONES rates her "cutting-edge" looks over the
years and a body language expert offers her view.
(Left) 1996: A sophisticated, classic bob earns her the Posh
nickname when she is in the Spice Girls.
(Right) 1999: A spiky, scary 'do that announces to the world she is
ready to move on from the girl group.
(Left) 2000: First foray into faux hair, adding extensions to her
cropped locks to look more girly.
(Right) 2001: Her hands-down worse style ever. Fortunately, the
skunk-stripe hair is short-lived.
(Left) 2003: WAG-tastic, tumbling hair gives her a glitzy look that
screams high maintenance.
(Right) 2004: The extensions are still there, streaked with blonde for
a look that's more brassy than classy.
(Left) 2006: Posh creates one of the most copied hairdos of the decade
with her dramatic Pob style.
(Right) 2007: Victoria's blonde ambition is obvious as the family up
sticks and head to LA.
(Left) 2010: Cheaper than Botox, Croydon facelift shows she means
business on American Idol.
(Right) 2012: Simple and very "now", low ponytail is perfect for
someone wanting to be taken seriously.
By JUDI JAMES, Body language expert
VICTORIA BECKHAM is very much defined by her hair and style.
She often reverts back to a similar style to the one she had during the height
of the Spice Girls and when she fell in love with David.
This is something many women do when they're feeling insecure.
Changing your hair is often a rejection of the old phase – although I don't
think this is necessarily the case for Victoria – but for most women, the
first thing we do when we lose a job or a man is go to the salon.

Dr. Stone was the rape counselor who was asked to treat Eve after Gregory House realized Eve's chlamydia was the result of a rape.
Eve resisted Dr. Stone and wanted to be treated by Dr. House. House told her he wasn't interested in her case and likened her wish to make him treat her to her being raped. This enraged Eve and she threw House out.
Dr. Stone spent almost two hours talking to Eve, but Eve didn't say a word in response. Instead, Eve tried to commit suicide and Dr. Stone had to call a code blue and admit Eve wouldn't talk to her. House agreed to oversee Eve's recovery from her suicide attempt and talk to her when she recovered.

Brian Hartline thinks he's just the beginning for the Dolphins: 'We need a good offseason, everyone knows that'
Originally posted on 60 Max Power O | Last updated 3/12/13
It's not every year an NFL team has $46 million to spend, and if they blow it, the chance may never come again. Miami took care of a key piece of business in locking up receiver Brian Hartline, setting up the core for a top level receiver to come in and round out the group. However, Hartline thinks 2013 is the year for the Dolphins to take advantage of their considerable resources. Hartline spoke to Joe Rose on WQAM in Miami about the re-signing with Miami and the importance of the Dolphins being major players in free agency: "I wanted to be here, and I was more hoping that it would be here. I knew that in the end everything was going to work out personally, but I feel like in the best situation I wanted to be in South Florida." "We need a good offseason, everyone knows that. We've positioned ourselves well to go out and make some moves. The coaches are preparing to do that, the front office is preparing to do that, and it'll be interesting to see which way we go. Regardless, we're fighting with being a .500 team in and out every year, so I think some moves need to be made. We need guys that want to win, need some guys that wanna be down here, and I'm hoping I get the opportunity to talk to some of these guys." var switchTo5x=true; stLight.options({publisher:''});

Walkers partner Ian McMurdo has defected to Cayman Islands rival Maples and Calder as the first ripples appear in the offshore market following the surprise confirmation that Walkers and Mourant du Feu & Jeune are in merger discussions.
As exclusively revealed by The Lawyer (22 October), Walkers managing partner Grant Stein has rocked the proverbial offshore boat by confirming that the Caymanheadquartered firm has held several "exploratory" meetings with Jersey-based Mourant since the spring.
But even before discussions really heat up, cracks may already be appearing in the combination, which if successful would create the world's largest offshore firm by a conclusive margin.
Stein admits that McMurdo, a well-regarded private equity specialist, began six months' gardening leave in August after announcing internally his defection to Maples on 30 July.
Yet Stein remains evasive over whether the merger was a trigger for McMurdo's departure. "I'm not sure why he's leaving," he says, "although he was aware of the merger talks."
Either way, if McMurdo's defection proves indicative of feeling within Mourant's and Walkers' ranks, it will surely be cause for a collective sigh of relief from the rest of the offshore market.
The combination, if given the go-ahead, would create the undisputed king of the offshore market, with 300-plus lawyers spread across eight jurisdictions, including the much-sought-after financial hubs of Dubai, Hong Kong, London and New York.
Several of Mourant's and Walkers' larger rivals are thought to have already held what one competitor described as "crisis talks" since rumours of the merger talks began in the summer.
Stein says that, if such claims are true, he is "glad" his competitors "are worried". Yet Nick Kershaw, Jersey managing partner of rival Ogier, is adamant that there is "nothing to be worried about".
"They're playing catch-up to a certain extent," Kershaw says. "It would give each respective firm significant presences in Cayman and Jersey, but those presences would still be smaller than other firms' offerings in those jurisdictions."
Maples managing partner Adrian Pope is also unruffled, despite admitting that the tie-up would be the "first of the offshore mega-mergers" and would see Maples forfeit its current crown as the largest offshore firm with 196 lawyers.
"We're not getting into a race to be the biggest firm or to be in the most jurisdictions," Pope says coolly. "After all, it may not go anywhere at all."
Pope and Kershaw also point out that Stein himself admits a merger of such large proportions would toss up significant management and cultural concerns.
"I hope they don't become to the offshore market what Clifford Chance and Rogers & Wells were onshore," says Pope. "It's a big move and would take a lot of time to integrate."
Any difficulties would only be heightened by the fact that both Walkers and Mourant have only recently completed smaller mergers of their own. Walkers merged with Crills Advocates in July 2006 to launch a base in Jersey, while Mourant is still bedding down its merger with Cayman-based Quin & Hampson earlier this year.
In fact, Mourant chief executive Stephen Ball was in Cayman to oversee the merger with Quin & Hampson when the talk of a tie-up with Walkers was first sparked during a social lunch with Stein in the spring.
Ball and Stein have been friends for years, with Walkers even offering Ball partnership in the mid-1990s.
Given that they are both gregarious characters, and obviously not shy of aggressive expansion, it is unsurprising that social chitchat has since evolved into due diligence over the synergies between both the firms' legal and fiduciary arms.
Yet Ball is surprisingly coy about discussing the merger talks, other than to confirm that Mourant is in "expansionist mode".
Stein is more open about the nitty-gritty. He wants to set the record straight that Walkers will not be selling its services arm Walkers SPV to Mourant in a separate deal to the merger of the legal arms.
"We'd discussed that very, very early on, but that's no longer a consideration – it's no longer an option," he insists.
So it is to be all or nothing for these two larger-than-life characters, and both expect a decision on whether their futures lie together early in the new year.

ARTDECO 'Skin Yoga' intensive lifting face serum 30ml
Item No.1232665157
Item No.1232665157
'Skin Yoga' is an intensive serum with triple anti ageing effect. It has exclusive active ingredients like synake and gatuline expression that reduces the muscle contraction and therefore significantly reduces the depth of expression wrinkles. Facial features appear significantly relaxed and smoothened. Dakaline, a new active ingredient with notable anti ageing attributes, stimulates the collagen synthesis and offers an excellent cell protection. The facial contours appear clearer, tighter and firmer. The deep penetrating, low molecular hyaluronic acid penetrates into the deep skin layers especially well and cares for an intensive humidity penetration. Through an optimum humidity supply, the wrinkles appear filled out from inside giving the face back its youthful and fresh appearance. Apply to the cleaned neck and face in the morning and evening. Gently massage and then apply the proper skin yoga face care cream.

17th March 2016
- The FED has shown its cards yesterday. They are mortally afraid to hike rates EVER. One mistake is enough is what they telegraphed yesterday, reinforcing my long standing belief that the FED is a scared puppy and wont do anything which will benefit the real economy.
- This action of the FED is sowing the seeds of huge volatility to engulf the entire world economy in the second half of the calendar year. Right now its clear skies. We will worry about it later.
- The Indian markets will certainly benefit as will all the markets around the world but be wary of volatility whenever it starts. Though we predict it will be in the latter half of the year , sometimes it can happen sooner too.
- The next resistance for the markets is around 7700 levels. The supports are yesterday's lows.
- Banking, Metals and FMCG could be the leaders in this rally while Pharma & Tech may be stock specific.
- SBI, Tata Steel , Hindalco, SAIL, PNB, Bank of Baroda look promising.
- Inflation will now get a foothold what with Oil and Metal prices rising. Cause for Global Volatility
- Prices of petroleum products have been raised which will boost local inflation.
- Rupee most likely to strengthen and Bond Markets may be volatile.
- There could be a chance of RBI reducing interest rates some time soon.
1st March 2016
- I wrote yesterday : "This budget is likely to focus more on rural India, ie Bharat more than India which is not a bad idea since rural India is slowly but steadily gaining in shoring up the GDP. A push is desperately needed and while it may not please Corporate India this is the right thing to do if we want to grow in double digits."
- Its almost like the FM read my mind. This is one budget in the last 25 years when both the Head and the Heart are in the right place. Now its over to the people of Bharat .
- India Inc. may be disappointed in many areas including the promised reduction in taxes which did not happen. There were a few niggles like increase in surcharge for automobiles and some concessions taken away from R&D . However there were no new major taxes.
- The market men would heave a sigh of relief as the much feared proposal of increasing the holding period for claiming LTCG from 1 to 3 years. There has been an increase of STT on options which should not matter to genuine investors.
- Infrastructure and Housing finance Companies would be positively affected while autos and Cigarettes companies will be negatively affected.
- Its quite possible that the markets may be sluggish in March but there would be lots of investing opportunities especially among beaten down blue chips like HDFC twins, Reliance, L&T and Cement companies.
- Tech and Pharma may be the laggards.
- There is a good possibility that PSU Banks may get a fresh lease of life.
- Global Markets are weak which may add some pressure on the market, albeit for short term
- There could be a chance of RBI reducing interest rates some time soon.
28th July 2015
The correction in the Global markets is turning into a rout with China bearing the brunt. All the efforts by the Chinese authorities is of to no avail. The power of the markets seem to be too much even for the powerful Chinese Authorities. If they fail to arrest the slide this could be a global rout.
Oil was under renewed pressure and now panic seems to have gripped the markets. However a short term bottom seems to be around the corner.
Precious metals which are universally hated were in the positive zone. Our view has been consistent that one should invest when there is blood on the street and everyone is bearish. Such a situation is prevailing in the precious metals market, especially silver. The risk reward ratio is 1:3.
The Indian markets opened lower on the scare of P-Notes clampdown. The Government was quick to calm down the markets that the clampdown was not imminent.
However, the markets charted their own path downwards since global sentiment prevailed over the local sentiment.
Results continue to pour in .Ambuja Cements reported poor results and it may show in its prices today. Similarly Tech Mahindra reported lack luster results which may put pressure on the stock.
Today Maruti, HDFC and PNB are the heavyweights reporting. Maruti is expected to come out with good results but the scrip is priced to perfection. Similar is the case with HDFC. PNB would lay out the road map for the price movement for other PSU Banks.
The FIIs are very active on the negative side which is not good for the markets , atleast in the short term. The domestic institutions are no match for the FIIs in such conditions.
9. Monsoons continue to be poor .July has received 13% less than normal, though the gap is narrowing to around 4-5 % for the entire season.
10 Volatility will rule the roost since it is the settlement week.
27th July 2015
The Global markets are in a correction mode now and even China is not being spared.
The Greece problem, though in the background is still bubbling. Need to watch carefully.
While all asset classes were under pressure on Friday, Gold was spared .
While more and more global fund houses are becoming bearish on Gold and are now giving lower and lower targets from anywhere between $ 750 to $ 900 , we strongly believe that now is not the time to lose faith in the yellow metal. Just based on sentiment alone it may well surprise on the upside to $ 1200 .
Results over the weekend were all horrible excepting Reliance which reported stellar numbers .
Today our markets would react in line with the global markets at the open , but need to watch whether they would close weaker . If it happens then this correction may last till 8250-8300 levels on the Nifty . Today is crucial.
Banks may be under pressure today since the results of Axis Bank and IOB were not upto expectations.
The parliament session now increasingly looks to be a washout , which is not good for the markets since the Land Bill and the GST Bill will be stalled.
9. Monsoons continue to be lacklustre .The season's deficit is around 6%, however the met dept expects good rainfall this week onwards.
10 There is likely to be very volatile since it's the settlement week.
24th July 2015
Global Markets are all taking a well deserved "rest" after long rallies.
The US markets continued to fall because of weak earnings. The Dow is negative for the year !!!!
Our markets seem to be in a state of flux. The mainline indices are weak, but the party is on in the midcaps and small caps.
This is very similar to what we have seen in the past ( 1995-1997 and 2001-2003 ). Enjoy the party till it lasts.
Lupin was the biggest Nifty loser while Bajaj Auto's results seem to have not gone well with the markets. One needs to be careful in large caps since the P/E is climbing because the E is not keeping pace with P .
Midcaps such as Ashok Leyland, Petronet, Tata Comm and Jubilant Foods are likely to be active in trade today.
Axis Bank and Reliance report today . They may set the tone for the week ahead.
The parliament session now increasingly looks to be a washout , which is not good for the markets since the Land Bill and the GST Bill will be stalled.
Monsoons continue to be lacklustre .The season's deficit is around 7%, however the met dept expects good rainfall next week onwards.
Gold seems to be under relentless pressure once again. Buying opportunity around the corner
- Ujaas Energy rises 7% on Letter Of Intent from Arunachal Pradesh govt
- Jaiprakash Associates gains 15% on debt recast nod by banks#39; board
- Manappuram Finance shares soar 6.5% post Q4 show

The Society of Practising Veterinary Surgeons (SPVS) has launched its 2015 fee survey.
SPVS wants all practices to complete a questionnaire to give as accurate a picture as possible of the fees charged by veterinary practices nationwide.
Designed to cover the most common procedures in a veterinary practice, SPVS says the questionnaire does not take long to complete and covers everything from vaccinating, microchipping and neutering small animals to calving and routine on-farm fertility work in livestock practices and performing a five-stage vetting and dental work in equine practices.
SPVS council member Peter Brown said: "The fee survey has become the 'go to' resource for benchmarking pricing in the veterinary profession. The variation in individual fees can be marked and the survey allows practices to see their fees are calculated in a realistic way to reflect their individual costs and overheads as well as local market conditions."
To take part in the survey, follow the link on www.spvs.org.uk or for a printed questionnaire telephone 01926 410454.

Customer knowledge can be gained through identifying customer needs; goals; or desires using a hierarchical value map or the means-ends model (in e.g. Bounds et al; 1993). Value to customers is then related to the degree of compatibility (match) between the consequences of using the product and customer needs. Within TQM (and Six Sigma); the subject matter knowledge seems to be the dominating knowledge for value creation and delivery if we take Quality Function Deployment (QFD) as an example. Thus; customer value is related with the existence or performance of product/service attributes. Meanwhile; the Lean Production methodology seems to rely more on self-knowledge to create and deliver value to customers; meaning that creating customer value is about driving away the wastes from a system.
As a value-creating system; an organisation also needs to focus on customer knowledge (besides subject matter knowledge and self-knowledge) to understand to whom is the system creating value for. Therefore; the purpose of this paper is to propose a method to identify customer value based on customer knowledge; which can be transformed by the producer into value that can flow along the value stream.
Keywords: Customer value; system thinking; customer knowledge; functional utilities

Ranbir presents Pepsi The Game award
Pepsi The Game brought to life the fun of gaming through TV advertising throughout this cricket season. Set in a fantasy world, all the action took place in a castle owned by the 'Game Master" played by Sanjay Dutt who challenged Youngistaani, Ranbir to get a bottle of Pepsi from his lair.
'The Game" was played over five films with three levels, each
ending with a brainteaser. As Ranbir came closer to his Pepsi, over
5 million responses poured in from viewers nationwide to help him.
Over 1.2 lac Youngistaanis cleared all three levels with Ranbir and
got an opportunity to win Rs. 50 lacs by taking the final tie
breaker slogan challenge. Ranbir along with a panel of judges chose
the final winner who had the most quirky and WOW answer.
The final question that was posed to those who cleared all three levels was, "Ad mein Ranbir, Game Master se jeetne ke baad kehta hai, 'Pepsi bhi gayi, sexy bhi gayi". Agar aap Ranbir ki jagah hote toh Game Master ko haraane ke baad kya kehte?"
Maria"s winning answer that WOWed Ranbir and the other judges
was, "Loser Game Master… You gotta think faster... Aur bhi koi
chunauti (challenge) ho to le AAO, par tab tak kehte
raho…YOUNGISTAN KA WOW!!!"
Speaking about 'Pepsi The Game", Sandeep Singh Arora, Executive Vice-President (Colas), Marketing, PepsiCo India said, "With 'The Game", Pepsi for the first time combined the fun of gaming with TV advertising. We received a phenomenal response to the campaign, with over 5-million entries from over 2-million Youngistaanis in less than a month. Pepsi The Game has been one of the most successful consumer led initiatives this season owing to terrific reaction the campaign has generated."
