Subhash Ghisingh (Nepali: सुवास घिसिङ) was the leader of Gorkha National Liberation Front (GNLF) which he founded in 1980. He was the chairman of the Darjeeling Gorkha Hill Council in West Bengal, India from 1988 to 2008. He spearheaded the Gorkhaland movement in the 1980s.
The Gorkhaland movement grew from the demand of ethnic Gorkha (Nepali) living in Darjeeling District of West Bengal for a separate state. The Gorkhaland National Liberation Front led the movement, which disrupted the district with massive violence between 1986 and 1988. The issue was resolved, at least temporarily, in 1988 with the establishment of the Darjeeling Gorkha Hill Council within West Bengal.
Subhash Ghisingh was born on 22 June 1936 at Manju Tea Estate, near Mirik, in Darjeeling district. While a student of Class IX in St. Robert's High School, Darjeeling, his father died. As a result, he left school and joined the Gorkha Rifles of the Indian Army as a soldier in 1954. He completed his matriculation in 1959 while in the army, but quit the army in 1960 and returned to Darjeeling.[1]
After working as a teacher in Tindharia Bangla Primary School for about a year, he enrolled at Kalimpong Junior BT College in 1961. As result of an altercation with the college principal, he left the college. He joined Darjeeling Government College and passed the Pre-University Arts degree in 1963.[1]
While a second-year B.A. student, he was arrested for participating in a political agitation against the poor conditions of the hills. He then had to quit studies. He was then the general secretary of Tarun Sangh. It was the beginning of a long political career.[1]
In 1968, Ghisingh became vocal on issues concerning the hills and formed a political outfit Nilo Jhanda (Blue Flag) to further the cause. On 22 April 1979, for the first time, he raised the demand for a separate state for the Nepali-speaking people of the Darjeeling hills. He was highly believed to be an agent of the Research and Analysis Wing.[2][3][4][5] On 5 April 1980, he demanded the formation of Gorkhaland, a separate state for the Gorkhas within India. He formed the Gorkha National Liberation Front to achieve statehood. After a prolonged struggle marked by much bloodshed, on 22 August 1988, he signed an agreement with the state and the central governments for the creation of the Darjeeling Gorkha Hill Council, a semi-autonomous body.[1]
After a prolonged illness, Subhash Ghisingh died on 29 January 2015 at Ganga Ram Hospital in New Delhi.[6] The hospital authorities released a statement stating that Subhash Ghisingh was suffering from pneumonia and liver cancer. Ghisingh's son Mohan Ghisingh was named the new party chief by the GNLF.[7]
Statehood demand[edit]
In 1986, the Gorkhaland National Liberation Front under the leadership of Subhash Ghisingh demanded a separate state of Gorkhaland within India. This statehood movement turned violent and was severely repressed by the West Bengal government. The disturbances almost totally shut down the Darjeeling district's economic mainstays of tea and tourism. The Left Front government of West Bengal, which earlier had supported some form of autonomy, now opposed it as "antinational". The state government claimed that Darjeeling district was no worse off than the state in general and was richer than many districts. However, GNLF spoke of discrimination from the West Bengal administration towards the Gorkhas.
After two years of violent agitation and the loss of at least 1200 lives, the government of West Bengal and the central government of India agreed on granting a semi-autonomous administrative body to Darjeeling hills. In July 1988, the GNLF gave up its demand for a separate state, and in August 1988, the Darjeeling Gorkha Hill Council came into being. Ghisingh became its chairman after winning the first council elections. The council had authority over some economic development programmes, tourism and culture. Ghisingh remained the chairman of the DGHC for 20 years with his GNLF party winning the DGHC elections three times.
Sixth Schedule and exile[edit]
The fourth DGHC elections were due in 2004. However, the government decided not to hold elections and instead made Subhash Ghisingh the sole caretaker of the DGHC till a Sixth Schedule tribal council was established in the Darjeeling hills. Most of the other political parties and organisations opposed the setting up of a Sixth Schedule tribal council as there was only a minority tribal population in the DGHC area. Resentment among the former councillors of DGHC also grew rapidly. Among them, Bimal Gurung, once the trusted aide of Ghisingh, decided to break away from the GNLF.[8] Riding on a mass support for Prashant Tamang, an Indian Idol candidate from Darjeeling in 2007, Bimal quickly capitalised on the public support he received for supporting Prashant, and was able to overthrow Ghisingh from the seat of power. Ghisingh resigned from the chairmanship of the DGHC in March 2008[9] and shifted residence to Jalpaiguri. GNLF lost most of its support and cadres to Gorkha Janmukti Morcha, a new party headed by Bimal Gurung.
West Bengal assembly elections 2011 and return from exile[edit]
After lying in political hibernation for three years, Subhash Ghisingh returned to Darjeeling on 8 April 2011 ahead of the West Bengal assembly elections.[10] His party contested the state assembly elections held on 18 April 2011 from three constituencies in the Darjeeling hills[11] but lost all the three seats that it had won in the earlier election. Ghisingh left the Darjeeling hills again on 16 May 2011 on yet another political hibernation.[12] He later returned to Darjeeling ahead of the Lok Sabha elections in 2014 but remained politically inactive due to his poor health.[13]

Choosing The Right Family Photographer
Choosing a photographer takes more than picking a name out of a phone book or booking the first person whose website comes up online. There are many factors that go into having a good photography experience. Based on my experience as a photographer and a client, here are a few tips on how to choose the right photographer for you.Style of the PhotographerYou as a consumer need to determine whether or not you prefer a more formal photography style, or a custom/casual style (which oftencombinesa variety of candids & formal smiles). In order to determine this you need to decide what you want captured. The photos you choose to put on display in your home are ultimately a result of what the photographer sees through their lens. Your photos are their vision. This combined with what you wear, ... [Read More]

There's no doubt Wisconsin has to be considered am NCAA tournament bubble team. But even with Wednesday's loss to Minnesota, the Badgers are still looking like they're in the big dance.
Only a few brackets were updated Thursday, but they all have Wisconsin in the field of 65:
Now, speaking of that bubble ...
Bracketville says Wisconsin (and other Big Ten teams) have been helped out by losses from the likes of Notre Dame, Georgetown, Miami (Fla.), Virginia Tech, Boston College, Kentucky and Florida.
ESPN.com's Mark Schlabach has similar thoughts, and says he wouldn't be surprised if 4-5 Big Ten bubble teams (with his three locks) make the tournament. Schlabach's analysis of UW: "The Badgers dropped an important game Wednesday night, losing at Minnesota 51-46. The victory gave the Gophers a two-game sweep of Wisconsin, which might end up hurting the Badgers on Selection Sunday. But Wisconsin still seems to be in OK shape for an at-large bid, as long as it beats Indiana in Saturday's regular-season finale. The Badgers are 4-9 against RPI top-50 opponents, beating Illinois and Ohio State at home and sweeping two games against Michigan. The Badgers played the country's sixth-toughest schedule, which will work in their favor; they also swept games against Penn State."
SI.com's Andy Glockner also sees a large contingent from the Big Ten making the field of 65.
Collegehoopsnet.com ranks Wisconsin No. 2 on its list of bubble teams, behind just UNLV.
The Bracket Board says Wisconsin is a bubble team, but should be in the NCAA tournament. If you're wondering what a win over Minnesota would have done, the site lists the Gophers as a projected team in the field of 65, as long as they "win the games they should."

Building Bridges
She loved to look at him.
Not in a weird, obsessive way—she wasn't a fangirl. She loved to look at him; she loved to observe him. He was the epitome of perfection, and she enjoyed just sitting and dissecting that perfection. However, she rarely got the chance to simply sit and look, because he would become frustrated with her lack of action, and she'd know this, and they would fight. Well… technically, it wasn't fighting. They'd spar, and he would leave her exhausted and she'd leave him without chakra. He'd collapse, and she'd be in a fit of worry.
But of course it would be okay; they'd just pick themselves up and repeat the process the next day.
It was a routine that neither imagined living without.
- 0 -
He loved watching her.
He enjoyed observing her form; calculating what her next move would be.
He found her moves expected, but exciting all the same. How she would pelt him with a shower of shrill steel, and barely gave him a chance to hurl one back her way. How she was on her toes every moment with him. He knew she tried to impress him, even through her limit. He kept his cool air and cold stare just to be able to keep watching her dance before his very eyes. Every day he watched her like his marionette, dancing under his will and attached to his invisible puppet strings.
She was his to watch, every day. No one could take that simple pleasure away from him.
- 0 -
She watched him go through every day under constant rule of the Main section of his family. Through their many years of being teammates, comrades, cohorts, and (dare she say it) friends, and through her developing feelings, she knew not to get too close.
If it was his destiny, his Fate, then he would get no say in it. And if he had no say in his own piece of Fate, then there was no chance for her to change it either. So she wouldn't stand close to him—she would refrain from embracing him like she sometimes would Lee. She would keep their relationship strictly platonic.
But there were moments that she felt her feelings were much too obvious for comfort. Sometimes she couldn't hold back, and said something out of line, and once she even kissed him on the cheek. Each time he would gaze at her in slight surprise before once again becoming cold and aloof.
Maybe he knew what she felt—but he surely knew that they were destined to be apart. He was born to a family of higher status, and much more importance than she could ever dream to be.
To be frank, she was the dregs left at the bottom of the porcelain china teacup that was he. And as those dregs, the longer she was left there, the more attached she became to him.
The love would become her downfall, she was sure.
- 0 -
He disliked their mild game of cat and mouse. He could never tell his role, and it irritated him. He hated not knowing where he stood, and he hated not being able to control where she stood.
Maybe his Fate was uncontrollable. Maybe he had no say in it. Maybe his feelings were unimportant.
But they were far from insignificant—if they managed to break through his emotional barrier and dance about with her in front of his face, then they were anything BUT insignificant.
So he would take the plunge, if only to achieve an answer.

"Tenten, do you love me?"
She stilled instantly, and the kunai she was polishing slipped from her fingers and landed somewhere on the forest floor below her resting branch.
She could barely comprehend what he had said, and her heart was pounding against her chest erratically, making it difficult for her lungs to function.
He was staring at her expectantly, casually as if the question he'd uttered hadn't been one of the biggest turning point of both of their lives. In this, he perplexed her. As usual.
And suddenly, she felt the strangest urge to cry.
Almost everything about this pointed to something bad—if she tore down the wall she'd worked so hard on building over the entirety of the years she'd known him, it was practically guaranteed that she'd fall in love. It would be more than simply love; romance, passion, hearts and souls bonded to each other. In love.
But then, it would only hurt more (not just for her, but for both of them) when Fate; destiny tore them apart. They would be frowned upon for sure- he was the prodigy of a proud line of the famed Hyuuga clan. He was the successor of the Kaiten, the man who had fully mastered the Byakugan before age twelve. He was the next choice to be the Clan Head if the true heiress was to step down, despite the fact that he was a member of the Branch section of his family. He was a genius.
Whereas she was prided on her affinity for anything handheld and deadly.
There was no compatibility— there was only a line. A line; a boundary they would cross if ever exposed. Eventually, after a period of happiness, politics and honor would pull them apart, leaving her more alone than she had been before. It was a choice between a temporary high and then a sharp tug to the bottom, or remaining level, platonic, for the rest of their lives, to spare him the pain. If he actually felt something for her. But she loved him too much to risk hurting him.
So she followed her duty, and smiled brightly. Fake.
"Of course not, Neji. Whatever made you assume something like that?"
I fear I will never find anyone
I know my greatest pain is yet to come
Will we find each other in the dark
My long lost love
Forgive me, Aly-chan? –insert puppy eyes- I know this is all angsty and sad, but that's just the way it came out. I guess her devotion is a little too emotional for me to give a concrete happy ending.
((Cookies and love for those who know what song and band those lyrics come from. I know; they're one of my favorite bands. Just PLEASE don't automatically assume it's Evanescence –sweatdrop-))

The Catharsis Will Linger Like Petrichor
Like bullets or knives or something brutal,
Noise pierces through either side of your skull.
It neither ricochets, nor grazes walls,
But meets itself in the core and explodes.
Like fireworks, dynamite, something fatal,
All conscious thought is obliterated.
Neon erupts, like watching lightning storms
From behind eyelids - see the veins ignite!
Tingles rise, like ghosts of rain on your flesh,
And lyrics strike like thunder upon each
Notch of your spine. A booming crescendo,
Cloud-mind flashes with half-enlightenment!
Fragmented codas - all wide eyes, all squalls!
Hear the wind's cracking howls: your house falls down.

Our guide to Yarmouth holiday cottages
Did you know...the TV series Rocket to the Moon was filmed in Yarmouth?
If you board the ferry to the Isle of Wight in Lymington you'll land in the pretty town of Yarmouth on West Wight, and we have to say it's not a bad way to start your holiday on the island at all. The town's natural harbour has always made Yarmouth popular with the sailing set, and it's still guarded by Yarmouth Castle, Henry VIII's fortification built in 1547. These days it's another picturesque picnic spot as opposed to a defensive castle and a great lookout point across the Solent. Speaking of the Solent, there are some fantastic boat trips available from Yarmouth such as trips out to the Needles and fishing excursions.

A couple struggling with the aftermath of a horrific crime must deal with their own troubles as well as the grief of others in this independent drama. Bill (Michael Sheen) and Kate (Maria Bello) are a married couple who are tightly wound and devoted to their work -- Bill is a businessman, Kate proofreads books. Bill and Kate's marriage has taken a turn for the worse, and they're on the verge of breaking up when they receive shocking news -- their 18-year-old son, Sam (Kyle Gallner), a college freshman, went on a shooting spree that claimed the lives of several people before he turned his gun on himself. As the news media descends on the couple, Bill and Kate are unable to understand why Sam would do such a thing, and as they struggle to find answers, they turn to family -- Kate's brother, Eric (Alan Tudyk), and his wife, Trish (Moon Bloodgood) -- without being able to resolve the issues that were driving them apart before tragedy struck. Beautiful Boy was the first feature film from director Shawn Ku; it was an official selection at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This was my second year doing the Baker Trail Ultrachallenge 50 miler. The Baker is a different race from most ultras in that you have to do the race three times in order to get the whole medal. The Baker Trail is almost 150 miles long so each year the race is held on a different 50 mile section. Last year I ran the North section and got my first piece of the medal. This year I got to experience the Central section.
The Baker medal once completed.
The week before the race I only ran two miles. I really wanted to run more but I couldn't seem to do anything but work. I ended up putting in 49 hours in the 4 days leading up to the race. Friday I ditched work and got a haircut instead and then came home to pack and head up to the packet pick up. This year the packets were being picked up at a private farm in Smicksburg, PA and was also where runners would finish the race. I decided to sleep in my Jeep at the farm to make race day morning easier.
New haircut to give me a mental boost for race day!
When I arrived at packet pick up I found that the family who owns the farm had made spaghetti and salad for everyone. To top it off they also had a refrigerator full of beer! I got my bib, chip, and shirt and took them to my Jeep. Once there I organized everything for race day and then headed back inside the farm house to eat and socialize. I sat on the deck with a cold brew and a full plate and talked to quite a few runners, both new and old friends. Soon enough it was getting dark and time to get some shut eye. I laid down the back seat of my Jeep and crammed a bag in the gap between the seat and the rear floor before rolling out my sleeping bag. I wasn't able to stretch out completely but I wasn't too uncomfortable either. I slept rather well for the conditions.
Representing Team Aquaphor!
In the morning my alarm went off at 4:30am. I quickly changed into my running gear and filled my handheld. I wore a camisole, shorts, gaiters and a pair of well worn road shoes. I carried nothing but water in a small handheld. I hoped travelling light would work in my favor on a hot day. I knew that this section is mostly rolling and winding country roads (gravel, dirt, and broken asphalt), as well as farm fields, Jeep roads, and about 8-10 miles of actual singletrack, technical trail. It would be relentless sun for the most part with no shade and hot asphalt under foot. A total 7, 318 feet of ascent and 7,056 feet of descent would add to the fun.
Elevation profile for the Cental section
A bus arrived at 6:00am to take us to the starting line. I hit the port-o-potty and then climbed aboard. The ride took twice as long as it was supposed to and I dozed on and off while the bus navigated the dusty country roads. By the time we reached the starting line it was almost 7am (start time was supposed to be 6:30am) and runners were nervously speculating about the toll the late start would take later as temperatures rose. I was just happy I wouldn't need a headlamp since I hadn't packed one.
The race director reminded us about following the yellow blazes and being safe on the roads. Then we were off! I purposely went out at the back of the pack. I wanted to go slowly enough to feel good and finish strong but still PR. I set a goal of running 13-14 minute mile average pace for the first half. A group of four runners, including me, settled in for the slow pace. The rest of the runners (roughly 100 this year – results aren't up yet) took off like it was a marathon or sprint instead of an ultra. I predicted that we'd see a high drop rate this year with the high number of new runners plus the heat. I learned that I was running with Steve, Michael, and Mad Dog. We continued as a group through the first three aid stations (mile 15) and added three more runners along the way.
After aid station 3 I took off a little and left the group. I knew I was almost 1/3 done and I thought it was time to start picking off more runners. Over the next few sections I picked off probably 5-10 runners, usually in groups of 2 or 3. I told myself I could start listening to music at the halfway point (mile 25.1) to motivate myself to get there. As I headed up the last large hill to the mid-way aid station I caught sight of a butterfly. I took my eyes off the trail just long enough to catch my toe on a rock and land hard on my left side. I looked down to find my knee bleeding profusely. I almost panicked but then I thought of all the stories I've heard of runners finishing despite much worse. I took a deep breath and pulled my eyes away from the gore. Then I got to my feet, dusted off and set off for the aid station.
My knee, looking better after being cleaned up.
At the halfway aid station the volunteers offered to let me use the sponge to clean up my knee. Knowing that there were people behind me who might want to use that sponge, I declined. I found a paper towel and wet it and used it to wipe away the worst of the blood and dirt. After that I went through the routine I used at every aid station in this race. I filled my water bottle, drank one cup of Gatorade or soda, and then ate a quarter PB&J or handful of trail mix. I never took a single GU or S!cap or anything except 'real' food. I also made sure to thank every volunteer at every single aid station. I checked my Garmin and saw that I was at exactly 6 hours. I made up my mind right then to aim for a negative split and a sub-12 finish.
After I left that aid station I pulled out my headphones and started rolling along to the music. It carried me pretty well and I started passing more runners. At one point I passed 7 or 8 within a mile or so. I was still feeling strong and happy and the miles were ticking off easily. I was having a blast moo-ing back at the cows along the way, waving to the Amish folks and just enjoying the sun and the breeze. Around mile 35 or so I caught a man named James who recognized me from this blog! (Hi James!) We leap frogged for awhile until I was finally able to pass for good. I think my awful singing probably kept him from catching me again!
By mile 40 I was starting to feel a little bit worn. A rock had made its way into my shoe and was digging into the side of my big toe. I kept wiggling my toe in hopes it would move somewhere less annoying but it never did. I was afraid I would lose too much time if I stopped to remove it plus I wasn't sure my shoe would go back on my swollen foot. I chose to ignore the pain and run with the sole purpose of getting sub-12 hours. I continued to play my game of choosing a 'victim' and passing them and then putting a large gap between that runner and myself before slowing again. It helped keep me going and kept me mentally strong. I never passed a runner that I didn't keep behind me for the rest of the way!
Miles 40-45 or so I ran with a friend of mine named Mick. He kept me in good spirits and kept pushing me. He took off after a bit and ran ahead. I tried to hold on to him but I know he's a stronger runner than I am still so I let him go when I got to the last aid station, approximately 4 miles from the finish. I went through my routine of refilling my water bottle, drinking some Gatorade and then eating a handful of chips. I took off down the road in the hopes of still finishing in 11 hours and 50-some minutes.
It didn't take long for me to realize there was very little chance of that happening. The last section is rolling ups and downs along gravel roads and some country highway. I was shuffle-jogging up the hills and then running full tilt on the downs but the runnable sections were getting fewer and farther between. The downs didn't seem to match the ups and the pace on the ups kept getting slower and slower. I pushed and pushed but when I realized I would need to do better than 10 minutes per mile for the last 2 miles I knew it was over. I had a vague hope that maybe the time on my Garmin was off from the timing clock and I would still barely make it but I knew in my heart it was futile. I set a new goal of finishing in 12:0x. I figured it would still be a huge PR and something to be very proud of.
The last mile is a long stretch of rolling highway and it seemed like it would never end. Runners who had finished long before me were driving out and waving and cheering which helped but I wanted to be done more than anything at that point. I finally saw the farm as I crested a hill. All I had to do was turn down the driveway and sprint it in! Right?! To my intense dismay I saw yellow arrows pointing not to the driveway but up a steep hill of furrowed farmland. I wasn't sure my ankles and knees would take a trip over a gopher hole so it was slow going. I finally crested the hill and saw I had to run down to a tractor lane, make a sharp left and then follow it to the finish. I picked my way through the old furrows and down to the tractor lane. I hit the tractor lane at 12:04 by my Garmin. I set out at the fastest run I could manage and crossed the line!
The race director told me my official time was 12:05:59! I made my B goal! Sub-12 will have to wait for next year I guess but it's still a huge improvement over Umstead in March and an even bigger PR over my time on the North section last year. I collected my medal, got a high five from one of the little boys running around the farm, and then headed for the food. As I enjoyed my pulled pork sandwich, cheeseburger and potato salad I relished knowing that I have trained really hard the last 6 months and it shows. I talked with a lot of runners who finished much faster than me but instead of feeling discouraged, I felt like I could get there someday! After I ate one of the volunteers patched up my knee (they had no peroxide so we used hand sanitizer – OUCH!) and I headed home. Now I just wait for official results so I can see how many runners I actually passed and where I placed. 🙂
I can't wait to see what next year holds!

This are just basic things I wanted to write down.
We are humans feasting on the turmoil and strife of others.
We are bags of rubbery flesh that wrinkle and saturate over time.
Your lover's sighs, moans, and cries will gradually wilt with your mind.
The ones you love will be speechless one day,
and you'll forget the reason why
you held on so long, and why it really mattered.
It's all just recycling of carbon.
The meaning of life is to live long,
then give back to the source that made you.
We all fear the inevitable.
Allow your emotions and opinions to compose you.
We all forget that we have such a limited time.
We all try harder as the days go by.

This is a power window door switch for the driver's side (front left) position. The switch has the auto down feature along with the switch being illuminated.
Most power windows stop working due to worn regulators, thus if you can still hear the window motor running when you press the window switch, you likely need a new regulator (which we offer). If you can't hear the window motor check your fuses first and try any other switch in the car that might control your window before replacing the switch.

SANTA ANA, Calif., Sept. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- CoreLogic ® (NYSE: CLGX), a leading provider of information, analytics and business services, today released its July Home Price Index (HPI ®) report. Home prices nationwide, including distressed sales, increased on a year-over-year basis by 3.8 percent in July 2012 compared to July 2011. This was the biggest year-over-year increase since August 2006. On a month-over-month basis, including distressed sales, home prices increased by 1.3 percent in July 2012 compared to June 2012*. The July 2012 figures mark the fifth consecutive increase in home prices nationally on both a year-over-year and month-over-month basis. To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click: http://multivu.prnewswire.com/mnr/corelogic/56985/ (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120904/MM65528LOGO ) Excluding distressed sales, home prices nationwide increased on a year-over-year basis by 4.3 percent in July 2012 compared to July 2011. On a month-over-month basis excluding distressed sales, home prices increased 1.7 percent in July 2012 compared to June 2012, also the fifth consecutive month-over-month increase. Distressed sales include short sales and real estate owned (REO) transactions. The CoreLogic Pending HPI indicates that August home prices, including distressed sales, will rise by 4.6 percent on a year-over-year basis from August 2011 and at least 0.6 percent on a month-over-month basis from July 2012. Excluding distressed sales, August house prices are also poised to rise 6.0 percent year-over-year from August 2011 and by 1.3 percent month-over-month from July 2012. The CoreLogic Pending HPI is a proprietary and exclusive metric that provides the most current indication of trends in home prices. It is based on Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data that measure price changes in the most recent month. "The housing market continues its positive trajectory with significant price gains in July and our expectation of a further increase in August," said Mark Fleming, chief economist for CoreLogic. "While the pace of growth is moderating as we transition to the off-season for home buying, we expect a positive gain in price levels for the full year." "It's been six years since the housing market last experienced the gains that we saw in July, with indications the summer will finish up on a strong note," said Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic. "Although we expect some slowing in price gains over the balance of 2012, we are clearly seeing the light at the end of a very long tunnel." Highlights as of July 2012:

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.3 /5 from 107 reviews
We totally enjoyed our stay. The view from the balcony of our suite (2 bedroom with kitchen, balcony and roof top patio area) was wonderful as we were able to see the sunrise over the ocean every morning. The environment was quite and staff was pleasant and friendly. Accessibility for transportation (e.g. taxi) was convenient, and food/restaurant options were varied. Traffic congestion was discouraging to tour the area or leave the property; and connection to wifi required frequent entry of login and password information rather than an automatic connection. The property was clean, and the view from the dining/pool area allowed for watching the vessels traversing the ocean and the wind surfers on the water.
Great hotel, awesome location, and breakfast! Would definitely stay three again!
We went to Serenity for a quick weekend getaway from Shanghai. We were upgraded to one of the villas and it was AMAZING. Two stories, two bedrooms with private baths, a full kitchen, our own private swimming pool and a rooftop terrace! It was so wonderful and I can't wait to come back!
We enjoyed our stay at Serenity for the simple reason that it was far enough away from the busy west side of the island to relax. The easiest way to get around on our own was through the car hire right across the street (1000 Baht per day). The staff were friendly, food was decent, and the relaxation was a given.
All of the staff was fantastic! Especially Yuri!

Chapter 10
The next morning couldn't have come fast enough; I spent the entire night in thought. Thinking about the events of the past few days, thinning about how Fiona and I were the same. We have both spent our lives protecting ourselves from others; we were afraid that we wouldn't be able to protect anyone else, just as my parents were unable to protect me when they died. We used the world as an excuse to distance ourselves from others. Now I know that we can't live like that, we need people in our lives, they give is meaning, they give us a reason to live. As for Fiona and myself I don't know or understand how it happened; all I know is that we do care about each other. We confirmed that last night when our emotions took hold of us, when we were compelled to be close to one another. Up until that moment I always thought that if I lost control of my emotions I would die, or turn into a creeper. This however was different, at that exact moment in time I knew I had to just follow where my feelings would take me. Perhaps this is the only true way to live, just go with your gut and jump.
Fiona and Velvet have spent the morning telling people to meet at the town center, that there was going to be a celebration and that they would be deciding the fate of Haven. I spent the morning planning out what I was going to say, in the end I decided I would go with this new idea of following my gut, seeing where my emotions would take me. Once the time had come I made my way into the town center. People were already spreading rumors about what was going on, once I enter the center I could tell that the rumors started to lean heaver on the topic of the Brotherhood.
"Everyone." I say trying to get their attention, "Everyone, I am sure you are wondering what is going on." I continue on, "I have heard some of the rumors, and I am sure you are wondering why I am here today."
"Where is Hyde, shouldn't he be addressing us." A townsman by the name of Jack Stevens shouts.
"Is he dead?" Another adds to the shouts, "Let's see his body."
Almost immediately people start to shout demanding answers. "Look, I know you all want answer and that is what I am trying to give you." I say, "Please if you would just quite down."
A rock flies past my head missing only by a few inches, "What you think because you are with the Brotherhood you can boss us around."
Another town person continues, "What did Hyde just hand Haven Over to the Brotherhood."
A few more rocks are sent flying in my direction. Followed by two shots in the air, "Everyone can it, let him speak." Fiona says her rifle still pointed in the air.
My mind draws a blank, what can me day to these people. They are scared and unsure of what is going on. The book, "Dyami give me the book." He hands it to me and I begin, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." I read out loud, "This is what we are here to do today, Hyde is no longer in control of Haven you are."
"What are you saying?" A member of the crowd shouts.
"I am saying that the Brotherhood is seeking to gain control of Haven, there is no stopping them, but you have the choice now to stay and welcome them or leave form a new settlement under yours and only your rule.
"That is not a choice." A voice in the crowd says, only this one I know. It is Nevada's, "We will fight." He makes his way next to me, "That is a choice; we either decide to welcome them or fight them."
"You can't fight the Brotherhood, they will slaughter you." I say.
"You have to either stand with them or leave." Fiona adds, taking her place next to me.
I can tell the crowd is starting to get divided about what to do, some people shoot for the Brotherhood, others plan to leave, and still others say they will fight. This is not the outcome I expected.
"The only thing we have always had in the Wastes was the fact that we were free of the Brotherhood rule, it is who we are as Wastelanders to stand against them." Nevada says.
The crowd is starting to get restless; people on the two sides are starting to turn on each other. Each side declares there are right and that the other seeks to destroy Haven. Even Nevada can see that this is not good, "Look, we can't fight we need to decide peacefully." He says as a bottle smashes into his mask causing him to stumble backwards.
"Back to the Mansion." I say, grabbing Nevada as we push through the crowd.
Once back in the safety of the mansion I grab Nevada by the collar of his jacket and slam him into the wall, "What are you trying to do get everyone killed?" I say. He pushes me back and takes a swing catching my across my mask. I charge in spearing him to the ground within moments I am on top and return the punch across his face followed by a second. I can feel the others pulling me off; I give in and allow my scenes to return to me. Pulling off his mask Nevada stays on the ground revealing his naturally tanned skin. His face is already changing colors and the signs of bruising are apparent. His salt and peppered hair is moist with blood from where the bottle hit.
"I wasn't trying to start a riot." Nevada says.
"Well you sure as heck started one." I say.
"Running never solves anything; you should know that better than anyone Riley or did you forget already." Nevada says.
Everyone's eyes are beating down upon me; they are wondering the meaning of his statement. My breathing is fast and short; the room starts to close in on me. I have to get out of here, away from everyone's eyes.
"What is he talking about?" Dyami says.
"Clean him up." I say, "Once that is done we can figure out what to do." With that I leave the room and head into Hyde's office. I long for the days of loneliness now gone. I should have left when I get the chance, I probably would have if it wasn't for them, but I swore long ago I would never run, not from anything. I wasn't mad at Nevada for suggesting they fight, I was mad at myself for suggesting they run. He had done what I should have, that is why he stood up there today. Not to start a riot, but to show me what I was supposed to do.
"You ok?" Fiona says.
I turn to her my face hidden behind my mask. I don't want her to see me, I feel ashamed of what I have done. I am supposed to be the leader, I am just a kid who messed everything up, "It's nothing, and I shouldn't have hit him." I say, "It's just that he is right, it should have been me to do what he did."
"I don't understand, what do you mean?" Fiona says shaken her head.
"My parents ran, they left me and ran." I say, "Left me to die, and that is what they did. The Haven Militia found them a few days later in the Wastes."
She moves closer to me, placing her hands upon my mask. Slowly she lifts it from my face. Compared to her I look like death, my eyes sunken, tired. Unlike hers which are full, bright and beautiful. Her hair seems to always fall down over her eyes, its poetic in a way. Dropping the mask to the floor her hand raises to my face, she rests it upon the forming bruise. It stings and once again I feel that feeling deep within me, only this time it does not feel awkward. It is welcome and warm; I haven't felt comforted by another's touch since I was a kid, since before my parents left me to die.
"I can't run I have to finish what I started." I say.
"I know." Fiona says, with that she reaches in and kisses me.
Our lips met for only but a moment, but it is one that will last a lifetime. Fiona pulls back for only a moment, in that moment I feel as if perhaps she has come to regret what has happened.
"What the heck do you think you're doing?" Fiona asks slapping me across the face. Standing there confused and trying to make sense of what just happened. Watching as Fiona storms out of the room a bewildered look upon my face. As Fiona reaches the door she stops and turns towards me, "You know I don't know where you got the idea that you can kiss me." She strides across the room, there is fire in her eyes. She moves so quickly there is nothing I can do except brace myself against her wrath. However, I am wrong and once again our lips meet. We stand for a time our arms wrapped around each other.
"Well that is just about the sweetest thing I have ever seen." Velvet says, once again standing in the doorway.
"I really have to start closing the door." I say.
Fiona turns to Velvet, releasing her arms, but standing close to me, not wanting the moment to fully end. My eyes now focus on Nevada; someone has stuffed paper up his nose to stop the bleeding.
"You ok?" I say.
"I will be fine, you?" Nevada says.
"She hits harder." I say as I motion in Fiona's direction, receiving a rather wicked look from Fiona.
Nevada can't help but laugh at the idea of me being taken out by Fiona, she may be small, but she packs a lot of power.
"Ok then what do we do?" Nevada asks.
I turn to look out the window; people still fight in the streets, "First we take care of them." I say, "Then, we fight!"

Many media companies have recently recorded share price falls, hitting 52-week low points, despite predictions that the decrease in advertising revenue appears to be bottoming out. Not everyone agrees about that, of course, and it is understandable if City analysts are rather sceptical.
They can see that classified advertising is not only leaking away from newsprint to the internet, but that newspaper websites are not always the recipients of online ads. Specialist sites are picking up a fair proportion of the available revenue, quite apart from those sites that offer people the chance to advertise for free.
Yet I wonder if analysts, and the investors who listen to their siren calls, are right to be so negative about the future of media enterprises. There is increasing evidence that traditional media companies are taking great strides towards a digital future. Trinity Mirror, for example, is gradually unveiling, almost week by week, new websites that offer readers a greater quantity of content and, most importantly, better quality content.
It may be argued that they have been too slow to act, having allowed their newspaper "brands" to wither on the vine and make it much harder to reclaim their departed readers' attention. On the other hand, given the promiscuity of net-users, there is no reason why they could not win a new, and younger, audience.
But look at Trinity Mirror's share price. As I write, it is trading at 340p, way down on its 574p high earlier this year.
Look then at Johnston Press, a regional chain of some 300 titles that was quick to engage with the digital challenge. After a trial at one of its Lancashire titles, it announced more than 18 months ago that it would step up its online programme by converting 70 newsrooms into multimedia operations.
In August, Johnston's enterprising chief executive, Tim Bowdler, said he expected the group to invest £10 million in its digital operations over the course of the year. It's true that he made the announcement against a fall in operating profits, but note what he said: "New publishing initiatives, especially in the digital area, continue to produce strong growth, albeit from a small base."
Last week he enlarged on that by revealing that digital ad revenue was up by 35% in the past five months and predicted "a satisfactory outcome" for 2007 as a whole. Result: Johnston's share price is hovering at 254p, down from a high of 490p.
Across the sector, the same depressing picture is emerging. Pearson, owner of the Financial Times, has seen its price slide by more than 200p.
It's true to say that media companies without newspaper holdings, such as BSkyB, Reuters and Reed Elsevier, have also tumbled. But the lack of faith shown by investors in newspaper companies does not reflect the fact that they continue to generate profits, even if margins have been reduced, and certainly does not show faith in their long term move from print to online.
The importance of the transition has two possible outcomes. If the companies continue to operate on two platforms, gradually attracting readers to their websites, they stand to attract advertisers too, offering them the benefits of ads in print and on the web. They are doing this now, of course, but I'm imagining they make a success of their online products.
However, if they take the nuclear option by switching away from print altogether in favour of digital, then they will immediately erase huge amounts of costs. Even with much less ad revenue than they enjoy today, they may well make very handsome profits.
It's just possible that investors who take this view may be waiting in the wings until the stock prices become even more attractive.
There is certainly no reason to think that it's all over for media companies despite the current gloom.Reuse content

I do believe they are stealing, the same thing happened to my husband and I, we send the information from until today we haven't received our money. They said they would send it to us then they change their mind and said they would send it to the IRS this happened on February and now were almost in June and still nothing here or with the IRS. So you tell me aren't they stealing?

Question about Fedders AED24E7F Wall/Window Air Conditioner
When you turn the air conditioner on you can here the compressor running but there is no air coming out and the fan is not running. The compressor sounds weak sometimes. Or what I think is the compressor. Same problem. Window unit. Sounds like the compressor works but not the fan. I followed the manufacturer's troubleshooting guide that said to unplug it and plug it back in and then to try resetting the circuit breaker. Unplugging it didn't do anything but resetting the circuit breaker did. The fan sounded like it kicked in and was about to run then made a pop sound and I could smell a burning smell. I unplugged it from the wall. What do you think?
Posted by Kermietoo on
smelt something burning this morning, a/c sounds weak, shut off. I waited and turned it back on after a while, it does not blow now.
SOURCE: My air conditioner doesn't blow out any air.
If this is a central air unit & you\'re talking about the fan on the outide of the house the problem may be that you are only getting 110 volts to the system side of the contactor. If you have the tools & know how you can check this yourself. If not, time to call a repairman.
Posted on Jun 01, 2007
SOURCE: Air conditioner will not keep running
Any one with a window; these units must be cleaned at least yearly.First off,there is a filter in the front below where the cold air comes out,inside the intake grill(where the room air goes back into the unit.) it should slide out. Second the unit has another coil at the rear of the unit.The rear coil is hard to clean, but is possible.Check if warm air is going out at the rear.If not unit housing must come off to clean rear coil properly.After a year ,or two this problem will very probably blow the compressor.You should be able to call a few A.C. companies and see if they clean windows A.C. units.

Do Immigrant Kids Get Fat to Fit In?
Many foreign-born American citizens have said they feel that their fellow U.S. citizens question their Americanness. This spurning can be particularly difficult for immigrants' U.S.-born children: some Asian-American kids, for instance, have sought plastic surgery or blue contact lenses to give their eyes a more "American" appearance. Now comes evidence that immigrants' kids may even eat more in an effort to fit in with U.S.-born kids, which is to say they try to be fat.

Restless with his part-time public relations job, Stephen Anfield, 30, began volunteering in the AARP's Washington, D.C., office about a year ago. It wasn't easy: On top of his 30-hour work-week, Anfield put in another 10 to 15 hours writing blog posts, making and printing PowerPoint presentations, and other office tasks. "It was like what you'd do at a typical job," he says. But after six months, he found a new job – courtesy of a referral from an AARP staffer.

Green Bay — At first blush, it appears the only thing that can stop the Green Bay Packers from debuting as an offensive juggernaut Sunday night against the Chicago Bears is themselves.
The National Football League's eighth-ranked passing offense a year ago, Aaron Rodgers & Co. rolled through the exhibition season with even greater ease.
Bears coach Lovie Smith isn't sure who will even line up in his secondary when the bright lights go up in the league's smallest city.
On paper, it's a decided mismatch.
Not that the Packers would say so.
"You can't go by on paper," receiver Greg Jennings said. "We have to go by what we know and by who we see on tape, and as well as who we know they have. We're preparing for their best secondary. I'm sure they're preparing for their best secondary. So that's the way we have to go about our business."
If the Bears were to go back to last season to find their top unit, they might want to keep looking. Chicago's pass defense finished 30th against the pass in 2008.
The Packers certainly contributed to the Bears' woes.
Of the 19 drives the Packers had against the Bears last season in their two meetings, 14 (73.7%) ended in Chicago territory.
Rodgers completed 47 of 69 passes (68.1%) to 10 receivers for 487 yards and four touchdowns, and he wasn't sacked once.
That was when the Bears had some stability in their secondary.
Heading into the game against the Packers, the Bears are trying to get healthy fast.
Charles Tillman, the team's top cornerback, practiced for the first time Monday after having back surgery in July. He was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's injury report.
Without Tillman, the Bears are left with an undistinguished group, including Nathan Vasher, Trumaine McBride, Corey Graham and Zackary Bowman.
"We have a lot of respect for their corners, both Vasher and Tillman," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "They're veterans."
At safety, sixth-round pick Al Afalava had an impressive training camp and will start on the strong side.
The Bears moved Danieal Manning from cornerback to free safety on the eve of training camp, and he's missed extended time with a hamstring injury. Kevin Payne is a solid player who started in the exhibition season, and Josh Bullocks came over from New Orleans as a free agent.
The Bears, who added Jon Hoke as the defensive backs coach, didn't see improved results in the exhibition games.
In the first three games, opponents' starting quarterbacks combined to complete 80.5% of their passes (29 of 36). One passer was Eli Manning of the New York Giants. The other two were Trent Edwards (Buffalo) and Kyle Orton (Denver). Edwards was perfect on all 10 of his attempts.
The Packers' passing offense was nearly that good in exhibitions. Rodgers completed 70.7% of his passes (29 of 41) for 465 yards and six touchdowns for a passer rating of 147.9 (maximum is 158.3).
"I think it tells us that our offense has some confidence right now, but we're going to have to carry that over," Rodgers said. "Those stats don't carry over, they don't mean anything, but it gives us a confidence and momentum on offense."
If there's anything that can halt the seemingly unstoppable Packers against the Bears, it's turnovers.
"That's on your mind every time you play Chicago," Rodgers said. "They thrive on turnovers. They get a lot of guys around the ball."
Rodgers threw two interceptions last season against the Bears.
He admitted the first was "a terrible throw" in which he under-threw a streaking Donald Driver, which allowed linebacker Brian Urlacher to pick off the pass.
In the second game, Rodgers went for a hot read to Driver as Manning came free on a blitz. But Manning tipped the pass and defensive Alex Brown came down with it.
"Two I'd like to have back," Rodgers said.
He'll have the ball back in his hands Sunday night, leading an offense that couldn't be more self-assured.
And when Rodgers looks up, he'll see a secondary that is, at the least, discombobulated.
Season-opening fireworks, anyone?
"You can say we can guard against overconfidence, I don't think we have to guard against it," Jennings said. "We definitely want to be confident. Definitely don't want to be overconfident, but I don't think anyone in the locker room is overconfident. I think we're just confident in one another that we can get the job done and move the ball and do the things we're supposed to do.
"If we execute, then no one can stop us."

IRAQ is booming again thanks to the heroism of British troops, Tony Blair has declared.
In a rare speech on the troubled country that has blighted his reputation, the ex-PM highlighted its nine per cent annual growth rate.
He urged UK firms to invest in Iraq and told a London business conference: "The political and human impact of the Saddam regime is known but often overlooked. Less well known is the economic impact."
But ex-Business Secretary Lord Mandelson said Mr Blair made mistakes over Iraq.

Knock knock
As I waited for him I quietly sang all the hymns I knew in reverse alphabetical order, just to keep myself busy. I did that a lot. When one lives alone one invents many insane ways to not die of boredom. Finally someone knocked on my door. I jumped to my feet and walked, ever so slowly, to the door. I could see the handle getting closer and closer. It was as if I could already feel it in my hand, as if I already heard the door creaking open. Finally, after what seemed like an age, I arrived at the door, and I pulled it open.
'Good morning, milady,' spoke the man.
I looked up at his smiling face. He looked quite radiant. His fair hair shone in the bright sun and his friendly blue eyes sparkled like sapphires. His skin was tanned and he had overall the complexion, the body of one who had travelled a lot. He was the most handsome man I'd ever seen.
'Good morning, dear sir,' I replied with a curtsey.
The gentleman laughed.
'Please, do call me by my name, Gwydion,' he said with a bow.
'Certainly, Sir Gwydion. Please, do come in, out of the cold,' I smiled at him.
Gwydion entered my house. In an instant it was as if the sun himself had decided to fall from the sky inside my home. Gwydion strode confidently to my table and sat down at it.
'Would you like a herbal drink, Sir Gwydion?' I asked, closing the door.
'Indeed I would. It is cold outside and I am tired, and I have yet to make the trip back to the city,' he said.
As I put the water and herbs over the fire I said:
'I would offer you my donkey, if I had one...'
Gwydion laughed. I liked his laugh. It sounded a bit like a church bell ringing.
'I take it your business here is going well?' I asked.
The man took the basket he was carrying and put it on the table.
'It is. Well, as far as it can be going, I've only been here for a week, and only started the business yesterday,' he said as he started to lay out his grasses on the table and sort them into little bundles.
Yesterday! Could it really have been only yesterday that I saw him for the first time? It feels like I've known him forever.
I helped him sort his grasses and herbs and weeds and we had tea together. Then he left, saying:
'I suppose I might see you tomorrow, milady. Till then!'
As I cleaned up after him I still wondered.
Could it really have been only yesterday?

We were on a ship. A pretty nice one, too. But as usual, one of us had to do something drastic.Something like schmoozing the captian's son just so that we could get a stupid piece of paper, which probably doesn't even exist anymore. If the ship hasn't been incinerated by now, I'll be surprised.
This time, it wasn't even my fault. All I did was lose the paper, while Tora had to go and break the poor guy's heart into a billion pieces.
He was my best friend!
So now I, Kladren, am stuck with my twin sister, in the middle of nowhere. In a rowboat.
"What now?" I asked bitterly. I've been angry wiht her ever since we left the ship.
"It's land. I can see land, Kladren, finally! Look!"
