They were participating at an exclusive seminar on "innovative & best practices in the construction industry to manage the next phase of growth," organized by Sujana Metal Products Limited, part of the Rs 3,000 crore Sujana Group, in association with The Economic Times at ITC Kakatiya.

The construction industry, they pointed out, accounted for around one-tenth of the world's Gross Domestic Product, seven percent of employment, half of all resource usage and up to 40 percent of energy consumption. This industry has a profound impact on our daily lives.
However, the industry is still faced with some major challenges, including housing, disaster resistant construction, water management and mass transportation. Recent experiences of several new mega-projects are clear indicators that the industry is poised for a bright future. It is the second homecoming of the civil engineering profession to the forefront amongst all professions in the country.
Presently, the annual expenditure budget of
Sustained efforts by the Indian construction industry and the Planning Commission have led to assigning the industry status to construction today.

Hello all, I'm new to this site but not at all new to DIY. I think it's some sort of sickness that runs in my family... I think it's fair to establish credentials; I've been building projects since high school, building cabinets with a friend who had his own business. From there it shifted to working on cars and attending a local auto mechanic vocational school.
What I bring to this site is the construction experience I've gained since then; We rennovated a 1917 farm house for 10 years, replacing walls, floors, the heating, plumbing and electrical systems etc.. Just about everything involved there. A few years ago we moved, then designed and built our own home with me acting as the GC, electrician, lead carpenter, plumbing assistant and gofer. I'm also a certified journeyman electrician and electrical administrator in Washington state. I hope to pass on as much help as possible to save people time and money as well as learn a few things on some less common projects I'll be taking on. May you all have safe projects!
Glad to have you aboard, welcome!

I have a client, and I'm really busy right now, and she wants a template with a layout similar to this website: http://www.bowlluckystrike.com/home
I'm going to be using WordPress for this website.
Thanks guys!
You're too busy to find a design for your own client?
Anyway, pretty much any business theme on here with a slider that has a custom control panel, color schemes, and claims to be highly customizable will be suitable for something like the site you listed.
Just by taking a (one of the many) business theme and changing the background, navigation, logo, and images on the page, you should quickly get a site that looks similar to the one you listed.
we find the theme and you got the commission for this work?
you seem to be much more clever than anyone else here (:
get the time… no offense but the authors here do all the theme work, with all the guidelines and documentation on how to use their themes … you just need to search 15 minutes for a proper theme.

Some 460 drivers are fined a day in Britain for talking on their cell phones at the wheel. This compares to where I used to live in New Mexico, where 460 state and local representatives are nicked every day for being too plastered to stay in lane.
Using mobiles while driving is so commonplace in the UK that police routinely order checks of call records to see if one was underway at the time of an accident.
The figures were released today by the UK Justice Department, according to The Telegraph, and show that despite the fact it's been illegal to use a mobile phone while driving without a hands-free kit since 2003, it's taking a long time for drivers to get used to the idea.
Tory Party spokesman for roads Robert Goodwill told The Telegraph: "This is a damning indictment of Labour's failure to clamp down on drivers who repeatedly flout the law... Labour's heavy reliance on speed cameras as a cash cow instead of actually properly policing the roads is being exposed."
Being a Brit in America, I'm somewhat used to in-car cellphone use being either perfectly legal or completely unenforced. To me, it seems no more distracting than talking to the passenger, watching the in-dash DVD player or reading the newspaper on I-279. Damn the nanny state!

I'm looking for some beta readers to read through my work before I submit it to publishers. I can't pay anything, but you'll get to read all my books first. And you'll have my thanks, of course!!
I'm looking for one or two people who enjoy reading erotic romance and who are willing to also read m/m (gay romances) as well.
I want someone who reads, or is willing to read, lots of different genres because although I write mainly paranormal and contemporary, I do sometimes stray into the historical or sci-fi genres.
I'd appreciate a fairly quick turnaround, although, I'm not gonna be militant about it. Life happens. You need to be able to tell me if the story works, if it makes sense to you, if I'm using a New Zealand expression that's not familiar to you--that sort of thing--and if you're good at grammar that's a plus.
If you're interested send me a private message or email me at shelley munro AT gmail DOT com

Basis of Self-Esteem
July 09, 1965,
, Section FOOD FASHIONS FAMILY FURNISHINGS, Page 28, Column , words
There is a basic and increasingly common fallacy, recently exhibited in William Stern's letter of June 30, that rent subsidies will enable the "underprivi leged" to gain self-esteem through living in private rather than public housing.

Alumni, students, faculty and staff share their intimate stories about the benefits and the early challenges of being a part of Wake Forest's diverse learning community. Brought to you by the creative minds within Wake Forest's documentary film program and the campus' NPR affiliate station 88.5 FM WFDD, the Faces of Courage multimedia series is a compilation of experiences that underscores the enduring value of diversity and inclusion.
Watch, listen, learn; and we encourage you to leave comments. Want to share your story? Contact us to find out how.
Content will be updated throughout the year, so please visit us often to hear more stories.
Deanna Margius describes the benefit of going down the path less traveled. She is studying biology and Spanish at Wake Forest to become an interpreter and a healthcare provider. This summer she interned at the Industries for the Blind, where she learned through friendship with a young camper that people are "literally" more than meets the eye. Her experience was life-changing and underscores her commitment to building meaningful relationships, regardless of individual differences.
Listen to her story (mp3, 4:47)
David Matthews voted "never integrate" Wake Forest when asked on a student poll in the early 1960s. However, by the time he graduated in 1962, his classes and an encounter with Ed Reynolds, WFU's first black student, broke the generational cycle of prejudice in which he grew up.
Listen to find out how (mp3, 5:21)
Check out our Flickr galleries »
Check back during the semester for narratives from Wake Foresters.
Impetus to Desegregate
In the 1950s and 1960s, many of Wake Forest's peer universities faced court-ordered integration. Wake Forest, as a private institution, was not under federal mandate. The process of desegregation was prompted primarily via student petitioning and protest. Find out how and why we were the major first private university in the South to integrate from those directly involved in the decision through the short film, "The Impetus to Desegregate." This is part 1 of a 5 part series that chronicles the history of diversity and inclusion at Wake Forest.
Celebration of Latino Heritage
Enjoy a variety of Latino traditions, including dance and poetry, in this video capturing Wake Forest's Celebration of Latino Heritage. Performers from the student organizations, Salsa Club and Can-I-Poet, as well as Ballet Folklorico — a Mexican dance group with incredible flair and style — helped make this occasion which highlighted the vibrant Latin culture and history of Wake Forest memorable. Special honorees at the event included Wake Forest's first Latino graduates, Carlos Alberto Perez ('65) and Peter Bondy ('67).
Diversity Symposium
On March 19, 2013, Wake Forest and the North Carolina Diversity and Inclusion Partners brought together higher education leaders, industry executives, and national experts to discuss how to prepare students today to be employees in a diverse and global workforce. This was a featured event of Wake Forest's commemoration of its 50th anniversary of racial integration. The symposium provided an opportunity to build relationships across disciplines, share research, and hear "best practices" and policy-oriented issues related to transforming institutions of higher education.
Martin Luther King Jr.
On Oct. 11, 1962, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke in Wait Chapel at Wake Forest College as part of the College Union Lecture Series. This event was not the first time a black person had spoken on the campus, but it was the first time a black man had been invited to speak after the College had officially integrated. Much social and political action on the part of the students and some faculty had brought the College to this historical moment.
Jamie Dean
Jamie Dean ('05, JD/MBA '09) is a renaissance man. This former student trustee is an Olympic medalist, successful attorney, dedicated father and husband, and committed to helping others with disabilities. Though completely blind, Jamie leads a life in service to others - a true model for courage. Watch and learn more about his inspiring journey at Wake and afterwards.
Gary and Brock
Gary Lowman ('02, JD '07) and Brock McCormack (JD '07) are intelligent, world-travelers, socially conscious, and most importantly, in love. They met in 2002 while studying at the WFU School of Law. Inspired by a negative article in a student publication, Gary and Brock formed the LGBTQ group, OutLaw, and helped build a community of support. They are an example of how courage and love unite to bring meaningful change.See also: Experience Gary and Brock's wedding day in this video »
Gayle and Beth
S.O.P.H Society sisters with a drive for social justice, Gayle Ford ('73) and Beth Hopkins ('73) championed both gender and racial equality during a turbulent time at Wake Forest. More than 30 years later, their friendship is stronger than ever as is their passion to show how their lives have been enriched by each other's perspective.
The Homecoming of 1973 was a special one in Wake Forest history. It was first time a black woman was bestowed the remarkable social honor, Homecoming Queen. Listen to Beth Hopkins ('73), the honoree, as she and her S.O.P.H. society sister, Gayle Ford ('73) talk about the historical moment.
J. Glenn Blackburn
J. Glenn Blackburn ('63) doesn't look like your typical civil rights icon. Though unassuming, he is often credited with leading the movement to end racial segregation at Wake Forest. As leader of the African Student Program, Glenn mobilized student and faculty support to raise money for Ed Reynolds, the first black undergraduate student, to attend Wake Forest.
Ed Reynolds
As the first black graduate, Ed Reynolds ('64) understands in more ways than one the importance of courage. He traveled from Ghana for his enrollment at Wake Forest in 1962, having no idea what awaited him in the American South of the 1960s –- which at the time was in the midst of the Civil Rights Movement. Listen to his thoughtful reflection of what courage means to him.
Bob Grant
Poised, resilient and full of spirit are few ways to describe Bob Grant ('68). He became one of the first black athletes to attend Wake Forest when he joined the football team in the fall of 1964. His passionate and inspirational character is undeniable as he talks about what courage means to him.
Mustafah Abdullah
Mustafah Abdullah ('10) is an inclusion champion motivated by faith. As lead organizer for the interfaith organization, CHANGE, Mustafah is committed to building a stronger community by developing relationships across racial, ethnic, economic, political, social and religious lines. Interestingly enough, he cites his involvement in the interfaith community at Wake Forest as the catalyst for his breakthrough work.
Aileen and Brian
Aileen Socrates-Kelly and Brian Kelly never engaged one another during their first two years at Wake Forest. But while studying abroad together in Salamanca, Spain, their eyes were opened to one another's unique experiences and similarities, which fortified the love they now share as husband and wife. Listen to what courage means to them and watch for their whole story in the next few weeks.

Help!!! Hid on off
hi guys.
i have 2001 330i. the hid lights are acting funny. when i have my lights on they are flashing on and off both at the same time, about every few min. i was driving when i noticed it and thought id might be a loose connection and bumps could be aggravating it. but got home and checked the connection while parked it continued.
i have had the car for almost 5 years and never changed the hid bulbs. in the past the passenger side hid would go off. then i would turn my lights off and on again and it would be fine. that would happen frequently for about a day or so. then go away for a few months so i would forget about it and never get it looked at. i am about to replace the bulbs as well, cause they look like they are dead. but im sure there is much more wrong.
i taked to bmw they want 140.00 to do an hour of trouble shooting at least and does not guarantee they will find it in that time.
also my turn signals are acting funny as well. some times it will flash like a bulb is out and blink fast but the bulb is on. then while its still on slow down..
thanks so much you guys are always a big help!!!!!

Tesla being more up front about the limitations would go a long way here. Why hide?
Every car has stickers warning you of all kinds of things ALL over it. Why should an EV one be any different?
They need to gratis those 5 and add lawyer stickies all over the place.
Parasitic drain FTW!
You know this apparent "media blitz" of random attacks and hit pieces on Tesla reminds me of......Tucker. I doubt it is just a coincidence because the big corporations FEAR independent upstarts and always have and they also play dirty.....real dirty, as Tucker found out.
Their desire to kill off what they perceive as a real threat overrides that kind of common sense more often than you'd think. Happens all the time in the corporate world. The big joke is that these "executive professionals" should have more restraint and intellect, you would think.
Reading through this thread...people blame Tesla for owner neglect and misuse....
As with those owners many of you don't seem to understand how the tech works or how to care for hybrids and EVs. But you have opinions none the less.
Didn't a similar issue come up with Priuses that weren't driven enough? I seem to remember some old couple complaining about their ****ty mileage but Toyota told them to pound sand as they didn't drive their car enough which ended up killing the battery.
Japans electrical grid is seriously screwed up. It's possible that between driving the car to the docks and then shipping the car to Japan the car was near death on arrival. If the car was in a 50hz region then there would be problems that aren't easily sorted. That's why there was rolling blackouts. He would been to find a transformer or generator to power the car. Who knows what the guy was thinking but depending on the length of drive from the Japanese docks and given that there's no way to just add a little it's possible he ran out of juice before finding a solution because he figured it would be plug and play in Japan. Judging by the Tesla forums and a Google search there isn't an easy way to interface with a 50hz electrical system.
I say good.
They screwed over the innocent taxpayer for their opulent luxury item, so this is simply karma.
Article needs more brick in " ".
there are various 'always on' systems in the car. 'always on'... meaning, cannot be turned off.
please read the article in detail next time.
the issue is not driving the car beyond its range and running out of juice. its the ever present energy draining sub-systems that totally kill the battery.
Does anyone in The Car Lounge own a Tesla?
lol at all the wannabe engineers in this thread
Major News at 11 - Rechargeable Battery loses charge if not charged, world stunned...
What everyone is suggesting is that they have a hard mechanical stop to current flow, which would be the same thing as unhooking the battery, which would be relatively simple even as is.
There's all kinds of warnings including the one that if active will call you and tell you hey dude you forgot to plug in your plug in car. Honestly, if my car contacted Tesla and said that it was dying and Tesla was able to save it, I'd say that's pretty bloody nice.
The entire car isn't ruined, it's the battery pack. There should be some kind of storage mode, but even then the battery will still not like sitting and not being used. The lil battery on my bikes and snowmobiles didn't like sitting around waiting to be used even when disconnected from everything, why would a big ass battery used to power a car be any different?

July 27-Aug 2nd: Farewell dinner-Goodbye MBV-Bus hold-up++
27.07.2010 - 02.08.2010
Tuesday 27th July
I slept ok last night despite sleeping during the day yesterday and my leg is much better too. Another day and it will be nearly back to normal I think.
I did some washing this morning and, as usual, this was the signal for the heavens to open and I had to hurriedly bring my washing in again.
I took the last of the three English classes this morning. The first thing I did was to revise what we covered yesterday morning. This included questions about capital cities. They had difficulty remembering that Paris, Tokyo, Seoul and Brasilia are capitals of their respective countries and, yesterday, I had to tell them the name of the highest mountain in Thailand which I would have thought would be part of basic knowledge especially as it is not that far away from Loei.
Fern and Noon left this afternoon to go back to Nongbua Lamphu and we said our goodbyes. I haven't got t know Fern as well as I have the two boys as she only visits here occasionally but I wished her and her cousin good luck in the futures.
I eventually had some time to myself on my laptop this afternoon when I prepared something to do in class for the rest of this week. I also composed an address to the school which I am expecting to have to give on Friday, my last day as a teacher.
Wednesday 28th July
Back to school after the long 4-day Lent holiday. I had a lot of things to do on my laptop, such as updating my blog and photo gallery but although I had the first period free it was difficult to have time to myself to do these things because other teachers want to see your photos, or students want copies of this and that and my own time vanishes without trace.
During a lesson this afternoon one of the students sitting by the windows pointed outside. When I looked I saw two men, though it was impossible to tell what sort of age they were, being chased away by some other students. It seems the two men were intent on stealing whatever they could lay their hands on though they had picked the wrong time of day when there were a lot of students around. Moreover, they were wearing casual clothes and could never have passed themselves off as students!
Thursday 29th July
After assembly this morning I noticed many of the boys going into one of the vocational teaching buildings nearby instead of going towards the classroom buildings as normal. My curiosity aroused, I went to take a look. The boys were sitting cross-legged in rows on the floor as if attending a class. But this was no class. All the boys were here because they had lost their scout berets (Made in England) and, by the time I took a look punishment was well under way. Each boy came forward in turn, Wai'd the Scout Leader and prostrated himself on the ground and he was then given one stroke of the cane, a few received two strokes. Punishment given, each boy got to his feet and Wai'd again in almost one swift movement and dashed off rubbing his bottom and, this being Thailand, smiling. The boys awaiting their turn also smiled as they watched their friends being beaten. There was no effort to hide what was happening, and no embarrassment either and I took a photo which is in my gallery.
It is interesting how different classes react to me. Every class has been nice and polite and their individual characters have emerged more and more as the weeks went by. But when it comes to leaving, some classes don't react at all whereas other classes have given me little presents and wanted me to autograph their exercise books and so on.
At the end of all my classes yesterday, today and, hopefully, tomorrow I will try and take a class photo as a lasting reminder of my time with them. I will post some of these in my gallery. Why only some, I hear you ask ? Well, I doubt you will have the interest or time to look at twenty-one similar class photos – if you recall, I have had that number of different classes each week.
I stayed late at school this afternoon and didn't leave till 6pm. This was because I had to finalise the address I will have to give to the school in the morning and, because I can never be sure of having a wireless connection at home, I tried to get as much done in the school office as possible.
At home, Rhe had got a couple of bottles of beer and we enjoyed drinking them. Ajarn Ben was there too and they presented me with a pair of black trousers and a blue check shirt which was very nice
Friday 30th July
This morning I decided to wear a proper shirt and tie for maximum impact because I had to address the school during assembly. Once again, Ajarn Joy translated for me and we each had radio mikes. Because several people had already asked me, I told the students about my travel plans after I leave the school and about what I do in London. I also had a lot of people to thank and then, to finish, I had a message for all the students. I told them that the song "Whatever Will Be Will Be", which every Thai student in the country knows well, is wrong and that, in reality, it is Whatever You Make It Will Be Will Be!!
The last time I wore a shirt and tie with my best near-white (that's the actual colour!!) trousers all the female ajarns kept saying Handsome Man to me every time they saw me. It was the same today. If only I could believe them!!
I had one period free this morning and two this afternoon but with so many people wanting a slice of my time to chat or DVDs made of my photos or videos the backlog of things I need to do online is growing.
The English Department, which consists of Ajarns Orapin, Mayuree, Malaitong, Joy and Mr Surawit,
took me out to dinner this evening which was very nice of them. Ajarn Joy drove me and Mr Surawit to Loei and at one point she said I was being very quiet. So I asked them if they had heard the news this morning about a bomb going off in Bangkok. Ajarn Joy surprised me by asking how I knew and if someone had phoned the news to me. She seemed surprised when I said it was one of the headlines on the BBC News website. But getting any comments on the topic out of Ajarn Joy or Mr Srawit was impossible.
Conversation then shifted to Mr Thaksin. Ajarn Joy asked me what foreigners think of him. I said it was hard because I have stayed in villages where the people love him for providing roads and water and electricity and all sorts of other things. Whether this amounts to bribing the electorate is a different question. Other people, I said, hate him for his corruption and dubious methods of wealth accumulation. But, I ended up saying, until the Thaksin question is resolved somehow there will not be permanent stability in Thailand. Both Ajarn Joy and Mr Surawit professed to hate Thaksin, but squeezing any opinion out of them was impossible which was odd as we were in a car and there was no one else to hear anything said. So I concluded they must only be work colleagues, not friends, despite the smiles and banter and didn't want to reveal their true thoughts to each other. Peace and harmony, it's called here. It is certainly a conversation killer though. No wonder most conversations seem to revolve around the peaceful and harmonious topic of food.
We went to a restaurant in Loei which was like a huge high ceilinged barn with tables at different levels and a stage on which a band played Thai folk/pop music and large plants were all over the place. Though the evening was nice, it was no more than that partly because I was the only person drinking any alcohol (only one bottle of beer all evening) and I don't think my fellow ajarns socialise much, or even at all, outside school-related activities.
One of the dishes we had was made up of chunks of various fruits, covered with a light mayonnaise, sprinkled with cashew nuts and garnished with battered prawns and lettuce leaves. It was so delicious a second serving was ordered and there is a photo of it in my gallery which also shows another dish we had which was chicken with cashew nuts which came in an edible basket. Both 'sep' in Thai or 'delicious' in English.
Saturday 31st July
It was a nice sunny day today for a change and I did some washing. I took my laptop downstairs where I could sit at the dining table as it really is uncomfortable sitting on the floor with my laptop on a coffee table in my room.
About 10am we went to Loei. On the way we collected Saf from his school where he had been preparing some plants to give to the teachers. Then we went into Wang Saphung to a secluded temple in an area I had not been taken to before. It was near the river Loei, which flows through the town, which is a tributary of the Mekong.
My heart sank as I thought the family were going to do some worshipping. Rhe had already tried to explain something about what was going to happen but I didn't understand. All I grasped was that it involved me somehow. When we got there Saf jumped out of the car and, fending off the dogs, went round the side of the building to see if the monk was at home. He came back and said no one was there, so we left, and drove to Loei.
A couple of days ago I said to Ajarn Ben that I would very much like to give the family something for the new house as my way of saying thank you to them for everything they have done for me. I had thought about a washing machine since Ajarn Ben does all the washing by hand even though there is a modern-looking washing machine in the old house which I assume was broken because it was not used. But turns out that the reason for this is that there is a water shortage in Muang Baeng and everyone is affected. The water company has promised to increase supplies in six months so the washing machine will be used after that.
The other item I thought of was a refrigerator since the one in the old house looks very old and one of the glass shelves broke the other day. It's also not really big enough for all the family's food storage needs. So we settled on that idea and this is what we went to Loei today to buy. We found a really nice Samsung fridge which Ajarn Ben and the family liked. It has a large freezer section on top of a normal size fridge and, after a 2000 baht discount, it was only 7190 baht plus a 200 baht delivery charge. So that was my thank you gift for the family.
Whilst in Loei we also visited a small department store. It was a curious place with men's and women's clothes on the ground floor, a supermarket on the first floor, and more clothes and things like camping gear and video games for kids to play on the two floors above that. It was from this store that Ajarn Ben bought the trousers to give to me. As they were unsure of my waist size they took from my room a pair of trousers that I use for teaching. This particular pair was a mistaken London purchase of mine with a 36" waist but it served its purpose, however, Ajarn Ben thought that this confirmed my actual waist size and so the trousers she bought had a 36" waist as well. But 34" is more accurate. At the store I was able to change the trousers and have the leg length adjusted to fit with no problem at all.
On our way back we had lunch and then continued on our way back to Wang Saphung where we revisited the temple. This time, the monk was in residence. We entered the modern viharn carrying a plastic bag of orange drinks and soya milk cartons as well as two saplings which, I was told, were of a tree from India. Kneeling in front of the elderly monk my birth details were worked out. The idea is that the saplings, a symbol of new life, will be planted in the temple grounds with details of my birthday. The monk had a lot to say and seemed very interested in me. He said I was not strong enough and gave Ajarn Ben a small bottle containing dried berries, about the size and hue of blueberries, which, the monk said, I should take every day to make me strong.
I am fairly certain that the tree from India today is the same species as the first 'tree from India' that I saw at the local temple next to the school at Mungwa which held the English Summer Camp and which had tempting but inedible fruit dangling from its branches.
About half an hour after we got back home the fridge was delivered to the new house which, I thought, was pretty good service.
It had been very hot all day so when we got home the two boys immediately went to the pond (in reality, a small water reservoir for the house) for a swim. I declined because I really needed to do things on my laptop and make some more bookings etc for my coming trip on the internet. To do this I planned to take my laptop to the school where I can get a good wi-fi signal. But I found myself left in charge of the boys. The pond is really an excavated hole and the water is invisible from the house so I felt obliged to stay there just in case something dreadful happened to either of them.
A little later Rhe appeared and said it was time to drink the two bottles of beer we had bought earlier and we had a good chat. And so my time vanishes once again.
Sunday 1st August
Wow!! August already. I miss all the usual trappings of summer in London and now August has arrived and it rains almost every evening/night here.
This morning we went off to Wang Saphung to buy some baby fish with which to stock the pond. Rhe bought 100 of three different types of fish from the fishery. They were supplied swimming around in large plastic bags which were inflated with oxygen from a gas bottle and then tied securely.
Monday 2nd August
Rain thundered down as I woke up. After I had showered and shaved Saf and Rhe came to give me their leaving presents. The idea was for Saf to present them to me before the bus came to take him to school. But I was only dressed in some boxer shorts with a towel draped around my neck. They gave me three presents: a diary with all their personal details in it as well as photos and messages from everyone. It was a super idea and deeply touched me. Fern gave me a picture she had made and framed of a horse in gold which was beautifully done and the boys gave me soft and warm scarves.
I spent most of the day sorting things out and packing. I decided to send some 6.2kg of stuff back to London in a box. Rhe went to Muang Baeng to get me the postal box and I filled it with my teaching papers, the pieces of material I've been given, my plastic waterproof jacket which I have never used so far and my blue bath towel.
The rain had stopped by the time we set off for Wang Saphung. I took a video from the car which includes scenes of flooded fields and roads. Quite a few people along the road were fishing in the paddies and catching very small fish.
The post office was very busy so we went for lunch and had rice with crispy pork and greens which was very nice and finished it with a chocolate chip ice cream.
At 3.45 Rhe drove me into school because it had started to rain heavily again. I sat in the office chatting to Ajarns Joy and Ben and others who popped in. About an hour later I was ushered into the Hall of Fame, the first time I had been in there, and here were 19 other Ajarns there and then the Director joined us who led me to the centre of the u-shaped table while the other teachers gathered round the arms as it were. About sixteen of them presented me with farewell gifts beginning with the Director. Soon I had a large pile of presents on the table in front of me and it dawned on me that I was back to square one as far as luggage space was concerned!
After the present giving I said my thank you's to the Director and to all the Ajarns and then the Director said how impressed he was with me and thanked me for all the work I had done and how sorry he was to see me go and wished me the best of luck in the future.
Ajarn Joy drove me and my large bag of gifts back to the house where I enjoyed a final couple of Leo beers with Rhe. Later, I had dinner with all the family at the garage restaurant we had been to before but this time I took a photo. At about 8.30pm Rhe drove me and the family into Wang Saphung where our first stop was the 'Safe Food Street Market', as the sign proclaims, where
Saf, Bet and I went to a particular stall which sold a variety of homemade Thai desserts. This was because a couple of weeks ago I had commented how much I liked the crunchy sweet nutty dessert we had after dinner one evening. It turned out that this dessert is only available at one stall in Wang Saphung where the vendor makes it and the other desserts on sale at her home. Saf bought four different squares of desserts for me to enjoy on my bus journey.
Then we went to the bus station to await the arrival of the bus coming from Udon Thani and going to Chiang Mai. Soon, some of my fellow Ajarns arrived to see me off including Ajarns Joy, Somphong, and her student son, Champ, and Ajarn Orapin and her son, Dream. Various people pressed packets of mint drops or chewing gum into my hands as well as those nasal inhalers which Thais never seem to be without. We had to wait more than twenty minutes for the bus to arrive and when it did Rhe hefted my case into the storage compartment for me while I stood in the doorway of the bus to wave goodbye to all my well-wishers. It was an emotional moment as the door closed and the bus began to move away.
The bus journey should have taken nine hours but ended up taking nearly fourteen hours. I slept fitfully and woke up numerous times. I woke at 7.30am when we stopped unexpectedly and noticed that we were in a line of vehicles with another line alongside. I recognised where we were because my bus from Chiang Mai to Wang Saphung two months ago stopped on the same stretch of road.
So there we were. Time passed and nothing moved. I tried hard to figure out the cause of the delay and thought of various scenarios the likeliest being an accident, though I was wrong about that as I was to discover later.
I noticed that we were on a paved section of road and that on the opposite side the road was unpaved and very muddy from all the rain. Various small vehicles drove by on the unpaved road and soon a queue built up which soon became stationary and I began to think nobody was directing traffic because groups of four or five heavy vehicles at a time began to drive slowly past on the only remaining section of unpaved road heading in the opposite direction to my bus.
After two hours we began to inch forward. Eventually we reached the actual hold-up which was not an accident, as I had thought, but a part-built bridge. An excavator was busy working on the exposed concrete sections of the bridge which we had to cross. For some reason, all the heavy traffic, such as my bus, was being directed over the single lane bridge thus forcing two lanes of traffic in both directions into one lane. All the light vehicles were being directed onto the old, lower road, A lot of people were standing round watching the traffic crawl slowly over the bridge presumably waiting for one or other vehicle to plunge down into the heavily swollen river below. I took a photo as we crossed the bridge which is in my gallery.
The remaining journey passed off uneventfully passing through Uttaradit which is a bigger city than I had imagined and one which looked quite attractive with lots of trees and gardens. Chiang Mai beckons again.....

SAN FRANCISCO -- It hardly mattered to the Milwaukee Brewers who they beat at this stage. They just needed wins.
Carlos Lee homered twice, Jeff Cirillo added a two-run single and the Brewers won a series against the San Francisco Giants for the first time in four years with an 8-5 victory Sunday.
Milwaukee manager Ned Yost has been pleased that Lee is being more selective in the batter's box -- and it's paying off for the slugger. He was behind in the count on both homers.
"I think it's all about me being patient at the plate and making sure I get pitches to hit and not a pitcher's pitch," Lee said. "When I get two strikes, I just want to put the ball in play."
Lee hit a two-run shot in the third inning and another two-run drive in the fifth to give him three homers this year and 10 career multihomer games. He scored three times and finished with three of Milwaukee's 13 hits, helping the Brewers win two of three in this set.
Milwaukee had lost six straight series to the Giants since taking two of three July 6-8, 2001, in San Francisco.
Winning pitcher Gary Glover (1-1) allowed four runs and seven hits in five innings. Derrick Turnbow got four outs for his first career save, striking out pinch-hitter Marquis Grissom with two on to end it.
"After the way we've been playing coming into this series, no matter who it was, taking two of three gives you momentum," Glover said. "It's something for us to build on."
The Brewers have scored six or more runs in each of their seven victories, but had been swept in their previous three series. They hope to gain momentum from this series, which followed a seven-game losing streak, as they head to St. Louis to play the NL champion Cardinals before returning home from this eight-game road trip.
Geoff Jenkins had a double among his two hits and Lyle Overbay singled twice, quickly getting to Jerome Williams (0-2) after the right-hander struck out the initial two batters in a 1-2-3 first inning.
"It's great," Jenkins said. "It's fun to contribute. Hopefully, we can take this confidence there and get some wins."
Moises Alou hit his first home run for the Giants, a fourth-inning solo shot, two days after coming off the disabled list with a strained right calf. He is the first member of the Alou family to homer for San Francisco since Jesus Alou did it Aug. 19, 1967. Between Moises, his father Felipe, and Felipe's brothers, Matty and Jesus, the family has homered 116 times for this franchise.
But Felipe Alou missed a chance at his 200th victory as Giants manager Sunday. San Francisco loaded the bases in the seventh with two outs against Mike Adams before Mike Matheny lined out to shortstop to end the threat.
Omar Vizquel tripled, doubled, singled, drove in a run and stole a base on his 38th birthday, and J.T. Snow ended a four-game hitless slump by hitting three singles and driving in a run for the Giants, who have struggled to give their starting pitchers enough run support.
Williams, making his first turn on regular rest after going 10 days between his first and second outings, allowed six runs and nine hits in five innings. He struck out five and didn't walk a batter.
"Jerome today didn't have much to compete with," Felipe Alou said. "Every time we scored, the Brewers would score two after."
A 10-game winner last season despite being limited to 22 starts because of right elbow surgery, Williams had a slow start in spring training but impressed the Giants late in the exhibition schedule.
"I made two big mistakes," he said. "It's been a struggle, but we can't look back. We've got to look to the future. It's always disappointing when you can't put guys away, especially when you're ahead of a guy 0-2. I didn't think about homers, but I didn't make the right pitches. It was a mental lapse. The balls were up right over the plate."
Brewers ace Ben Sheets was released from a Houston hospital Saturday after spending two nights there while being treated for an inflamed inner ear. He flew Sunday to St. Louis to rejoin the team but will not make his scheduled start Monday night. Wes Obermueller will make a spot start.
All three Giants were retired in the sixth on flyballs to CF Brady Clark, then all three Brewers flied out to CF Michael Tucker in the top of the seventh. ... The Brewers improved to 3-4 in series. ... Tucker made his first start in center to give Grissom a rest. ... Lee has a team-leading 14 RBI. ... Vizquel, the nine-time Gold Glove SS, had his first three-hit game for the Giants after spending the last 11 seasons with Cleveland.

Rubber cement is attested from 1856 (from 1823 as India-rubber cement). Rubber check (one that "bounces") is from 1927.
To gaze; gape: Don't be rubbering at McCorn (1896+)

African Americans With Kidney Disease And Fluctuating Blood Pressure At Increased Risk Of Premature Death
African Americans are more likely than whites to develop kidney disease. Doctors can find it difficult to predict which of their African American patients with kidney disease have the highest risk of dying prematurely; however, they do know that cardiovascular disease is most common cause of death in individuals with kidney disease and that there is a strong correlation between blood pressure and kidney disease progression.
To investigate the role of blood pressure in African American kidney disease patients' health, Ciaran McMullan, MD (Brigham and Women's Hospital) and his colleagues studied 908 African American adults who had kidney disease due to high blood pressure. The participants had at least one year of blood pressure measurements available, and they were followed for three to 6.4 years.
The researchers found that patients whose blood pressure changed significantly from day to day were nearly three times as likely to die from any cause during the study (and nearly six times as likely to die from heart-related problems) than patients whose blood pressure changed very little from day to day.
"Larger changes in blood pressure from day to day could identify a high risk group of African Americans with kidney disease," said Dr. McMullan. "In addition, it means that scientists should examine why people have large day to day variations in blood pressure, as this may turn out to be a new area of therapy research."
"This could mean that doctors should start paying attention not only to what the blood pressure is on the day you see him or her, but also on whether it is changing a lot each time he or she sees you," said Dr. McMullan.
Study co-authors include George Bakris, MD, Robert Phillips, MD, PhD, and John Forman MD.

The German language file for MediaStream seems to be ANSI encoded instead of UTF-8. The result is that all special characters and the two following characters are missing in XBMC. The fix is easy: Open the xml file and save UTF-8 encoded.
This happens with the German language file that shipped with the 8.10 Atlantis release. Hope you can fix this for the next Atlantis release.

The croissants are among the best you'll find in Bali (though that's rather a low bar) and the baguettes are definitely not of the quality found in France, but they are certainly worth a try.
The air-con internal space is usually crowded at lunch time, so it's best to time your visit to avoid the crowds.

Feb 3, 2014 - By Randy Tucker, Sports WriterThe win lifts the Wranglers to 2-3 in conference play,while the Cougars dropped to 3-22 with the loss.
SHOSHONI -- The Shoshoni girls threw the proverbial monkey wrench into the Class 2-A Southwest standings with a 51-26 win over a shor-thanded Wind River team Friday night at home.
The win lifts the Wranglers to 2-3 in conference play, while the Cougars dropped to 3-2 with the loss.
The game ends the regular-season series between the two longtime rivals with a win each.
Wind River coach Justin Walker played Friday's contest without three starters, who missed the game for a variety of reasons.
Wind River traded baskets with Shoshoni in the early going, but the pace was set by the Wranglers from the start. It was a more frenetic pace than the Cougars could handle.
Trailing 9-7 with 5:41 remaining in the opening period, the Wranglers blew the game open on a determined 11-0 run that didn't stop until Wind River's Whisper Sunrhodes hit a layup with 3:15 left in the half.
The game's tempo was established by Shoshoni junior Olivia Thompson, whose quickness and distance runner's endurance left the Cougars panting in her wake for much of the contest.
Thompson drained a variety of off balance, twisting shots during the Wrangler run.
Leading 24-14 entering the third, Shoshoni quickly ended any hopes of a Wind River rally.
Thompson cooled off from the floor, and the pace slowed a bit, but Shoshoni had another weapon in sophomore Raine Pingetzer ,who was deadly with short jump shots from the high post.
Thompson tallied 16 and Pingetzer 14 to lead Shoshoni, but five other girls tallied points. Junior Annika Dechert narrowly missed double figures with nine, including a solid five of six from the free-throw line.
On the night, the Wranglers were 21 of 35 from the line, while the Cougars suffered in that category as well, hitting only four of 18 attempts from the stripe.
The foul count was indicative of Wind River's tired legs, with most of the infractions coming after Shoshoni had penetrated to point-blank range on the low block.
A telling sequence came with 2:43 left in the third, when Thompson raced through the middle of the Cougar defense in transition and found guard Tarisha Parrish wide open via a full-speed bounce pass. Parrish's bucket doubled the score at 36-18. Shoshoni never looked back.
The Wranglers hit the road for the long trek to Kemmerer and Big Piney next weekend.
Wind River entertains Class 1-A Dubois on Friday, then travels to Riverside Saturday.
Shoshoni - Annika Dechert 2 5-6 9, Tarisha Parrish 2 0-0 4, Raine Pingetzer 5 4-9 14, Katelyn Jennings 2 1-2 5, Audrya Tarango 3-4 3, Raimee Dempster 0-2 0, Olivia Thompson 4 8-12 16; Totals 15 21-35 51
Wind River - Josee Vogel 2 2-6 6, Tory Thoman 1 1-6 3, Whisper Sunrhodes 1 0-0 2, Macayla Arrington 5 0-1 10, Chola Bell 2 1-3 5, Michaun Yellowplume; Totals 11 4-18 26

There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
There are many different types of vascular anomalies, ranging from simple infantile hemangiomas to complex combination vascular malformations such as Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. For more complex vascular anomalies, an evaluation in the interdisciplinary VAC Clinic is important. For other simple vascular anomalies, a specialized nurse practitioner can provide a timely clinical evaluation.
During the Nurse Practitioner clinic a patient will meet with one of our highly experienced nurse practitioners, all of whom have specialized expertise in vascular anomalies. The nurse practitioners will:
The nurse practitioners also educate patients and families about their diagnosis, help to allay fears and empower patients and/or parents.
During the clinic evaluation, the VAC nurse practitioner may determine that consultation with one or more Vascular Anomalies Center physician specialists is in you or your child's best interest. The nurse practitioner may be able to arrange a physician consultation on the spot, or will schedule a follow-up appointment for another time.
We are grateful to have been ranked #1 on U.S. News & World Report's list of the best children's hospitals in the nation for the third year in a row, an honor we could not have achieved without the patients and families who inspire us to do our very best for them. Thanks to you, Boston Children's is a place where we can write the greatest children's stories ever told."

Family members searching for 'At Risk' missing Fortuna woman
FORTUNA- Family members of missing Fortuna woman, Danielle Nicole Brooks (a.k.a. Danielle Bertolini) were out searching the Fortuna area Thursday morning. Her parents, Jon Bertolini and Billie Jo Dick told us they are in need of the communities help. Her father, Jo Bertolini said, "There's something wrong. There's foul play. She would not go this long without getting a hold of her sister. No matter where she has ever been, I've always at least been able to have contract with her through her sister."
When asked if they had a message for Danielle, her mother responded, "I love you Danielle, wherever you are. I love you, and you just need to come home or call to let us know that you're still here with us."
The 23-year old was reportedly last seen in Fortuna in the Campton Heights area over two weeks ago. Her mother told us her last contact with Danielle was January 29th. Danielle is considered "At Risk" due to medical issues.
Anyone who has information surrounding her disappearance is asked to call the Fortuna Police Department at 725-7550.

The Best Ways to Stream Your Media
ARTICLE DATE : March 4, 2011
You probably have a lot of media on your small-screen laptop that you'd love to enjoy on your big-screen HDTV. Your downloaded movie collections, your extensive music library, your Netflix and Hulu accounts, they all seem like a perfect fit for your home theater. And sometimes you want to do the opposite: Catch programming on the go, when you're away from home and your HDTV.
There's no single catch-all method to send TV content to your PC and networked content to your TV, but there are plenty of options if you have a specific task in mind.
First, there's the simple act of watching TV on your PC (or smartphone). For this, you need to use a product like the Sling Media Slingbox PRO-HD or Monsoon Multimedia's Vulkano. Either of these devices can capture incoming video from your cable or satellite box and stream it over the Internet to any PC or smartphone with the right software. This is called place-shifting, and when you absolutely need to watch a show and you don't want to wait to get home to catch the DVR recording, it's vital.
These products also support IR blasters, so you can remotely control your cable box and change the channel even when you're not nearby. If you have a Dish Networks satellite box, you can pick up a Sling Adapter ($99) and it will automatically integrate with the Slingbox, it snaps right on and gets to work.
Second, you can stream content and services on your PC to your TV. This sets up your PC as a sort of media server that set-top boxes like the Apple TV and Orb TV can access through your local Wi-Fi network. Once your computer is configured, you can watch videos from your PC library on your TV, or access streaming media services like Netflix and, with Orb TV, Hulu.
Third, you can simply display the full view of your desktop to your PC. The Veebeam HD and Asus WiCast take whatever is on your computer's screen and sends it right to your TV wirelessly. The Veebeam HD uses a USB antenna that serves as a graphics and audio adapter to connect with its base station, hooked up to the TV. This setup lets any computer with a USB port stream video and audio to a TV via an HDMI or composite video connection. While it's more flexible, it suffers from a short lag, so you can't use this system to play PC games on your TV. The WiCast, on the other hand, wirelessly streams any HDMI signal from your PC (or any device with an HDMI output) to your PC. This connection is real-time so you can play video games and browse the Web, but it requires an HDMI output on your computer.
If you know how you want to view your content, you can likely find a box that fills the bill. The media extenders and set-top boxes below are a good place to start.

Sling Media Slingbox PRO-HD
