|Pulitzer Prize for film criticism
|Years active

Joe Morgenstern (born October 3, 1932)[1][better source needed] is a film critic for The Wall Street Journal. He has won a Pulitzer Prize for Criticism.
Morgenstern graduated from Lehigh University in 1953 with a bachelor's degree in English magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa. His first journalism experience was as news clerk at The New York Times. He then became foreign correspondent for the Times, based in Switzerland and France.
Morgenstern became an entertainment reporter for the New York Herald Tribune in 1959,[2] later advancing to theater/music critic.
From 1965 to 1983 Morgenstern was film critic for Newsweek. During this time, his most famous review was when he panned Bonnie and Clyde and then reconsidered his opinion seriously enough to retract it in the next issue. That proved a golden marketing opportunity for Warner Brothers to attract interest in the film by noting it made a major film critic change his mind about its virtues.[3] From 1983 to 1988 he wrote a column for the Los Angeles Herald Examiner.[4]
Morgenstern has written movie reviews for the Wall Street Journal since May 1995. His movie reviews appear each Friday in the "Weekend & Leisure" section of the newspaper, and he covers the movie industry in a column which appears every other Saturday.[5] He also writes movie reviews for CNBC.[6] Morgenstern is based in Santa Monica, California, and does movie reviews for the local public radio station KCRW, which are released as a weekly podcast.
Morgenstern's writings have appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times Magazine, Newsweek, Rolling Stone, Esquire, the Columbia Journalism Review and the Los Angeles Times Magazine. He has written several scripts for television.[7]
Morgenstern co-founded the National Society of Film Critics.[7] He is renowned for his use of vocabulary and humor.
He received a Pulitzer Prize for Criticism in 2005, making him only the third film critic to win a Pulitzer for criticism, after Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times and Stephen Hunter of The Washington Post.
Morgenstern lives in Santa Monica, California.[8] He was to married actress Piper Laurie from 1962 to their divorce in 1982. They had one child, Anna Grace Morgenstern.[9][better source needed]

- //Steve Carell
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Steve Carell pops out of his hotel suite to greet a reporter. Wearing well-tread sneakers, jeans and a modest sports coat, he could be anyone: your accountant, your neighbor, your college roommate.
What he doesn't look like, or act like, is a top-line comedy star. The head of "The Office" on NBC, the surprise star of big movies both sublime ("The 40-Year-Old Virgin") and regrettable ("Evan Almighty"), he says he still feels like a stranger in a strange land of fame. And he says it so earnestly that it's impossible not to believe him.
"It's nothing I ever expected to happen," he says at the end of a long day of interviews to promote "Get Smart," the big-budget comedy that opens on Friday. "It's nothing I ever anticipated or prepared myself for.
"The other side of that is: I don't assume it will continue."
Come again? He's got back-to-back Emmy nominations for playing guilelessly insensitive paper supply office honcho Michael Scott. He's a go-to guy for intimate indies ("Little Miss Sunshine," "Dan in Real Life") and summer tent poles like "Get Smart," based on the popular Cold War TV spy comedy.
It's just that it's all happened a little fast for Carell, who a few years back was just one of the fake news correspondents of "The Daily Show." So he keeps expectations low because ...
"I think it protects me from buying into the whole idea and getting too high on myself," he says. "I know it can go away as quickly as it came, so I'm trying to enjoy it and not be wary of the other shoe dropping. I try not to take it too seriously."
Which is another way of saying he's a genuine guy with a good head on his shoulders, although he's far too self-effacing to put it in such complimentary terms. He's far more likely to take a dig at himself.
Which does he prefer, TV or film?
"I can't believe I can even answer this question," he says. "The fact that I've been able to do both is so remarkable to me."
Is he sent a lot more scripts than he used to be?
"That whole idea of being sent a script or being asked to be in a movie still feels relatively new to me," he says. "I'm very used to auditioning for things. To just have someone ask you to be a part of something is a weird and unique thing. I never want to take that for granted. I still have my resumes. They're in a drawer in case I need them. I'm not assuming anything."
Does he think he's funny?
"Not particularly, as evidenced by this interview," he says. "I'm not the life of the party. I'm not someone people gravitate to and want to hear the stories from. I know people like that, but I'm not one of them."
Fortunately, other people are pretty certain he is funny. Even if they agree that he's not particularly flamboyant.
"Steve is an Everyman," says "Get Smart" director Peter Segal by phone from his office. "He may hate hearing that, but it's an extreme compliment. It means people can relate to him. People can relate to the awkward situations that, say, Michael Scott gets into and they can say 'Hey, I know that guy.' He's also a very intelligent actor. He knows how to underplay things.
"That, and he wears funny shoes."
Carell actually agreed to do "Get Smart" a ways back, between his scene-stealing role in "Anchorman" and his breakout turn in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," the film that established him as a humbly deadpan comic star. "I loved the series," he says. "It wasn't even a consideration in my mind whether to do it or not. It just sounded like fun, and I thought potentially it could be a really funny, exciting movie."
He could use one of those, even with his rapid ascent from supporting actor to featured player. The stench of last year's expensive flop "Evan Almighty" overpowered Carell's charms, and even if "Get Smart" has been in the hopper for a while, it will still be seen as his blockbuster follow-up.
Of course, these are precisely the kinds of things Carell doesn't like to think about.
He's still waiting for the other funny shoe to drop.

Advocating the Aim High Project as Policy
My advocacy for the Aim High concept is fundamentally political. Robert Hargraves named the Aim High energy concept and has explained it. The goal of the Aim High project is the rapid development and deployment of a very large number of Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors not only in the United States, but in most of the world, between 2020 and 2050. I view the LFTR as a lowest cost potential energy source, that is safe, pollution free, and sustainable. This Aim High goal cannot be reached unless it becomes a matter of United States government and International policy. Thus my goal on Nuclear Green, and in my other postings is the adoption and implementation of the Aim High Project as National and International policy.
It would not be rational to promote the Aim High Project as good policy, without explaining why other competing policy options are less desirable than the Aim High Project option. The two options I have reviewed are the renewables option and the conventional nuclear option. My goal in these studies has been to demonstrate that both the renewables option and the Light Water Reactor option policy is unlikely to produce a post carbon energy system. I have argued for the desirability of this goal both because the use fossil fuels have undesirable consequences even if the Anthropogenic Global Warming issue is excluded. In addition a plausible case has been made that global oil production will soon begin to decline world wide. This concern leads to a policy consideration that electrical technology be substituted for Fossil Fuel technology in transportation. This possibility has not been well thought through by either renewables advocates or the conventional nuclear industry, but it could lead to a significant increase in electrical demand.
Renewables advocates appear to believe that a large power production gap will exist in a renewables generating system and that the gap will be filled through greater efficiency. This would appear unlikely if transportation is electrified to any considerable extent. Thus the renewables option would appear to open an energy gap, especially if transportation is electrified.
The French model demonstrates that conventional nuclear power can takeover providing electricity on a national scale. The French nuclear model also provides for some use of electrification in transportation. However, American nuclear advocates have not advanced the claim that the American electrical system can or should be entirely converted to conventional nuclear technology.
Both the renewables model and the conventional nuclear model leave significant questions to be answered, before they can be considered good policy options. Among the most serious questions is that of cost. I have tried to show that making renewable generated electricity reliable raises its costs. Indeed the cost of reliable renewable generated electricity appears higher than nuclear units with comparable electrical output.
Even the highest estimated cost of nuclear generated electricity appear to be lower than the likely costs of reliable renewables. Thus there ought to be a considerable policy preference for conventional nuclear generation of 24/7 base electricity. There are never-the-less problems with a nuclear base. First, the economies of nuclear power are such that running LWR's at full power on a 24/7 basis yields the best return. While conventional reactors can produce power on a 16/7 or 16/5 basis, this would increase the cost of power from high priced nuclear facilities to customers. On exception would be the use of older reactors for 16/7 0r 16/5 electrical generation, since older reactors are already paid for. Conventional reactors do not make a good fit to peak reserve requirements. Peak reserve capacity is usually characterized by low capital cost and high fuel costs. In addition older and inefficient coal powered generation facilities are also assigned peak reserve roles.
Wind powered generation facilities without storage are inappropriate for any generation role requiring reliability. In most localities peak wind capacity of ten occurs during the night when electrical demand has ebbed. During day time however wind speed often slackens in many localities, while electrical demand increases. Finally over much of North America, wind produces almost no electricity during the hottest days of summer. Only with electrical storage does wind emerge as an important post carbon power source. But while storage adds to the reliability of wind it also increase wind's capital costs. With power on demand 16 hours a day reliability wind does not have a cost advantage over nuclear, and with 24 hour a day reliability, wind is at a decided cost disadvantage compared to conventional nuclear.
Solar generated electricity has many liabilities even where compared to wind even in most favorable localities solar facilities only produce about 20% of their rated power a day and then only under very favorable climatic conditions. Both clouds and winter adversely effect solar output. It is sometimes suggested that wind and solar compliment each other; solar having its peak output during days while wind at night, and so on. The disadvantages of such a hybrid system become apparent when the cost of redundant capacities are calculated and the number of hours during a year during with neither wind nor sun alone or in combination will generate enough electricity to satisfy consumer demand. Thus without storage renewables are not reliable. With storage, renewables are are more expensive than nuclear. Renewable advocates sometimes attempt to solve the problems of renewable limitations by pointing to the grid as a adjunct to renewable power. But this would assume that carbon based power would continue to be available in a post carbon energy era, and actually quite a lot of carbon based power. This leads us to the paradox that renewables in a post carbon energy scheme would continue to require the presence of carbon based generating capacity in order that the grid be reliable.
My conclusion then is that neither the mostly renewables grid nor the mostly conventional nuclear grid work well and would not provide low cost electricity. In contrast the LFTR grid would work well and at a far more modest cost. Thus advocating a Aim High oriented energy policy can and should include a discussion of the cost, reliability and other advantages of the Aim High option compares to the conventional nuclear or renewables options.
I have been criticized for discussing the disadvantages of both renewables and conventional nuclear power especially in comparison to Aim High LFTR technology. But it is difficult to portray the advantages of the Aim High project without pointing to the cost other advantages over the conventional nuclear and the renewables options. What sort of advocacy would refrain from pointing to the advantages of the preferred course?
Part of the Aim High project is the development of cost savings that are not possible with other energy approaches.
We should not plan the energy future without acknowledging economic fact.

5 Tips for Getting More Out of Your Equipment
Terry "The Wedge Guy" Koehler is in Las Vegas today teaching a group of 150+ LPGA teaching professionals. Since he's out of pocket, he asked us to re-post one his old columns. This was originally posted September 4, 2009. Enjoy!
As you might imagine, I get many emails from golfers asking all kinds of questions about their equipment. These range from set make-up to shafts, to fitting specifications to ... well, you can just about name it. Compared to just about any other sport or activity you can get into, golf does have a mind-numbing array of things to learn and understand, doesn't it? Rules and etiquette alone can boggle the mind, but let's stay focused on the equipment for today. I want to sound off with some thoughts I have, and then ask all of you to chime in with your ideas and opinions, OK?
The Wedge Guy is sponsored by SCOR Golf, where Terry Koehler is President/CEO. He encourages you to submit your questions or topics to be considered for his columns on Tuesdays and Fridays. Each submission automatically enters you to win a SCOR4161 wedge to be given away monthly. Click the button below to submit your question or topic today.

Matt McGee says:
*Sigh* Had some snow flurries around the area last night. Choosing a golf ball requires a different equation when one is playing in temperatures below 55 degrees. I'm surprised that none of the ball manufacturers have marketed a "cold weather" ball.
I'd be curious to have a putter fitted. It sounds like nonsense.
windowsurfer says:
Precept MC Lady or other 80 comp ball works 4 me up here in the Fraser Valley, where we golf in the wet year-round (in 45-55ish weather)
GBogey says:
I had a putter fitting this year and am pleased with the results. The pro I work with on occasion takes a simplified approach to fittings focusing on length (he thinks most people play with too long of a putter) and neck type. To my surprise I had a tendency to aim right using several neck types. I also found my previous 2-ball putter harder to aim than having a straight aim line.
Mr_X says:
MM, I agree with you. I don't think putter fittings make sense for most golfers. Case in point - I putt 30 - 35 strokes for 18 holes 95% of the time. On course I am familiar with I may three put once every 36 holes. On a course with difficult greens I cannot read easily, I may three putt twice a round. I make up those stokes by having a good short game when I miss the green. Twice in the last month I have played full rounds on courses I have never played before AND used course loaner clubs. On both occasions I was using putters that were very different from my own. I had 34 putts on one round and 35 on the other. Both courses had difficult greens and I was using game improvement wedges with giant soles. My overall scores were higher than normal, but my putting was on track with my normal performance. The key is to spend some time dialing in the speed of the putter and learning the true aiming point while warming up on a practice green.
Mr_X says:
I cannot imagine Bobby Jones, Byron Nelson, Walter Hagen or Sam Sneed ever going to a putter fitting. You don't need the latest golf technology or some over priced club fitting service to be a good golfer. You don't need a launch monitor or an indoor range to be good at this game. You do need to take some time practicing your shots. (The number of clubs in your bag is not nearly as important as the number of shots in your bag!) Then go out and play those shots in real games of golf. If you are still not pleased with your ability, repeat the last two steps.! All of this other golf marketing crap is to some degree snake oil.
Mr_X says:
I have made an effort to emulate better golfers over the last few years. I have asked them how they got to where they are as golfers. The two things I hear most are practice and visualization. The key difference between a 5 index and a 25 index is the amount of practice time and focused playing time. Two scratch golfers I have met said playing well is like part time job. They dedicate 15 to 20 hours a week to playing golf well. If you want to get the most out of your equipment, you should practice more and play more - period.
Ianinho says:
@ Mr_X, what you say is true about practicing but do you really think Tiger Woods / Rory McIlroy could go out for a round with your golf clubs and be as good as they would be with their own? Custom fitting helps - period
For those who say its not for me, I'm not good enough for it to make a difference, I would say it makes more of a difference the worse you are.
Mr_X says:
Ianinho, I am not arguing the validity of all club fitting. I am arguing the validity of putter fitting. Pros change putters with great regularity. I have know many people to pick up a brand new short stick and putt better with it their first few rounds out than their old putter. I think that Tiger, Rory or any of the top 50 PGA pros could go out for 5 rounds with a new putter and shoot the same number of putts for 90 holes as they would with their regular putter - provided they were given a chance to warm up with before hand.
As Bill Pennington said, "Putting is not an exact science, it is more of an art form".
Watch the attached youtube link for further explanation:
GBogey says:
For me, the $40 fitting fee for a putter was money well spent and I would to it again. I agree the pros change all the time and most could putt with anything, but most of them are changing these days with the same tools, i.e. laser pointing, that are used during fitting sessions.
DougE says:
1. Know my distances and usually hit my distances. I use every one of my 14 clubs and have many alternative sticks in the car for various course set-ups.
2. Average 63% Fairways hit and 90% playable drive using my Titleist 910 D2 driver. I'll continue to play my driver thank you very much.
3. I know the lofts and lies of my irons, and every other club in my bag.
4. Was fit last winter with the new Ping iPhone app. Good enough for me. Love my Ping Anser Milled #5
5. Agree whole-heartedly. I play only 2 different balls and know the different nuances of each one. ProV1x and NXT Tour S. Both great around the greens. Who cares how long off the driver they might be. Doesn't matter one iota IMO. I could care less if you drive your ball 20 yards past mine. I'll make it up at the other end of the hole, where it really counts, around the green.
sv677 says:
Two comments:#1: 3 wood or high lofted driver (12*-14*) would be helpful for a lot of people A lot of higher handicapers and seniors can't hit the ball 200 yds. but are trying to hit a 46" driver with 9*-9.5* loft. The result is swinging too hard trying to get the ball airborne. #2. At least for me, putter fitting is a waste of time and $. I average 4 3-putts a round with whatever I use, and I have tried a lot of putters and methods. Either you can putt or you can't. I can't.
legitimatebeef says:
I agree w Mr. X. Most of what is marketed in today's golf world is snake oil. It's just a diversion. Ok, so its fine for people who get enjoyment out of tinkering but let's face it none of this stuff is really helping anyone shoot better scores.
If having more clubs causes you to play worse, you got problems!!!
larrynjr says:
I just had a driver fitting and while I have a reasonably swing speed; 98-100mph on average, my angle of attack is so steep that I ended up with a 13 degree loft on my driver. I have only gotten to play it once so far but am getting it out there around 250 yds much more often than my old off the rack driver. I believe properly fit clubs (all the clubs) will help every golfer get the most out of their game. Instead of having to make your swing fit you clubs, your clubs should fit your swing. Putter included. That's next for me.
bobhooe says:
If a putter fitting or just a new putter gives you more CONFIDENCE you will putt better. It's all about finding confidence
Matt McGee says:
Thanks, windowsurfer. I'll try the Precept. So far, I've had good luck with some of the Noodle balls. They seem to react pretty well when it's cold.
I think club fitting makes perfect sense for every other club in the bag. However, I have four putters that I play with. One is about as old as I am (I think), and one has a grip that's so smooth it's slippery. I can change to any of them and hit the ball straight down a line. Dialing in distances is the hard part, and I usually only switch between them if I'm playing very fast greens, or if I've been having trouble putting. Changing putters then seems to get my painfully analytical head out of the putt.
DougE, Great idea - I think "playable drive percentage" is going to be a new stat for me to track. Fairway percentages are fine, but that is a far better gauge of the reality of a shot.
Kurt the Knife says:
@Mr X
"They dedicate 15 to 20 hours a week to playing golf well."
Wow. thats only 1-2 rounds a week for me.
windowsurfer says:
Hey Matt -- yeah, I find Noodles pretty similar. Like Precept Lady, can be had online for $0.40, or $0.50 ea., if u don't mind logos. +1 to Doug's Playable Drive stat -- in terms of making an empirical decision on driver performance, datsdashit. (Awesome averages, btw.) Loft: I may be anomaly, but one "common wisdom" bit that does not track for me is higher loft drivers for higher HC players. I am an 11 index and I do well with 8* and 8.5* lofts (in summer with lots of FW roll). No balloon shots. I go with higher loft in winter/wet -- when balls plug I need the height cuz the roll ain't there.

One of my favorite summer activities as a kid was going fishing with my dad. I can remember driving out to one of the reservoirs in Findlay, Ohio one summer with him and my little sister in tow. We stopped at McDonald's for an early lunch of Happy Meals, and then went fishing. I never caught anything – I'm a very poor fisherman, but what I do remember is my dad patiently answering the dozens of excited questions I asked during our trip. He told me all about blue gill, perch, walleye, bass, and catfish.
The memory of that trip has been on my mind lately, and got me to thinking about fish. I still have a lot of questions and when I went looking for the answers to those questions I found this site.
Navigation is a little different than most sites. There aren't any menus at the side or top of the page – instead the sections are laid out in center of the page divided up by category. You just scroll down and click on the facts or questions that interest you.
The categories are Miscellaneous Fish, What is the FishFAQ?, Salmon FAQs, Lobster FAQs, Crab FAQs, Shark FAQs, Shrimp FAQs, Shellfish FAQs, Cetacean FAQs, Pinniped FAQs, Turtle FAQs, and don't forget to check out the Ew, What's That? picture and scroll to the bottom of the page to find the answer.
I just started with the first question and then clicked the Next fish button at the bottom of the page to navigate through the other questions from start to finish. You can also use the FAQ fish button at the bottom of the page to navigate back to the main page.

Salsa Negra with Chipotle
Balsamic vinegar might seem like an unusual ingredient in Mexican food, but it is common in Baja. This recipe makes more salsa than you'll need to make Shrimp with Spicy Chipotle Tomato Sauce, but it keeps in the refrigerator for weeks and can add an intense, smoky heat to grilled meats, stews and tacos.
Slideshow: More Salsa Recipes
- Active:
- Total Time:
- Servings: Makes 1 cup
- 3/4 cup chipotles in adobo sauce (from a 7-ounce can), stemmed and coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon molasses, preferably unsulfured
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
How to make this recipe
In a blender, combine the chipotle chiles with the molasses, balsamic vinegar, dark brown sugar and 1/4 cup of the water. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
Strain the sweet chipotle puree through a fine strainer into a small saucepan, pressing on the solids with a spatula to extract as much of the puree as possible.
Simmer the chipotle sauce over moderately low heat, stirring frequently with a heatproof rubber spatula, until it is very thick, pasty and reduced to 3/4 cup, about 20 minutes. Remove the salsa from the heat. Stir in the soy sauce and remaining 1/4 cup of water. Serve the salsa negra hot or at room temperature.

Dear Rubies/Don Post,
Why in your helmets do you have half of the visor transparent and the rest hard plastic which reduces the look of the helmet? I see that Rubies makes that super cheap Jango that comes in two pieces, but has the full visor... Let me ask you... why? Is it really that much cheaper? Even though your visors are extremely poor quality, I'm sure you could sell much more if you were to just put the full visor in.
Everyone who has purchased your content.

He's 7 now... and can't keep him inside the house to save his life.
He limped home the other day, so we whisked him to the vet today.
Had soft tissue damage to the left wrist of his paw, doc said to keep him inside for a couple weeks til it heals.
He is fascinated with the new corgi pup. He, for the first time in his life, is acting almost fearless...he follows the dog everywhere, plays with him, lays on the daybed with his head and paws hanging off so that Stu can see him from his cage.
He has been grooming Artie a lot as well. Balty is such a sweety pie and has been loads more affectionate with everyone since the pup arrived--he even lets me pick him up! He used to hate that. I think he sees me do this with the pup, so he is jealous. He will now lay on me or let me carry him/hug him. Before he only liked to be petted when he was on something that wasnt a human.

Coffee is where S&D got its start. And we believe we roast coffee better than anyone. From our decades-old relationship with growers around the world, to our innovative state-of-the-art computer-controlled roasting facility, we are experts in producing scalable quantities of quality coffee, from small batches (one bag of beans) to full-scale commercial runs, day after day after day.
Our receiving area holds thousands of bags, and we process tens of thousands of pounds of coffee every day. All of our coffee shipments are "cupped" (tasted) by experts a minimum of five times between receiving green coffee and the shipment of final product to you. Our commodities management team includes experienced veterans complemented by professionals distinguished by their diverse backgrounds. We have recently added a former cocoa bean buyer, for instance, and a current shareholder in a family farm in Nicaragua. Twice daily, all origin and blends are roasted, ground and cupped by a group of experts, guaranteeing the best possible product for you and your customers.
Our entire commercial coffee roasting process is electronically controlled, monitored in a state-of-the-art control room on a bank of LCD screens, allowing us to precisely monitor our range of roasting equipment. We can combine several different origin beans in a single blend in customized ratios, to match a specific taste profile. And our computer controls help us match that profile consistently, even months later.
S&D's process and experience means better yield and hyper-consistent blends that are replicated without fail. We roast a single batch of a specific blend to a single taste profile – and guarantee it. No one else offers S&D's combination of consistency and customization.

Outlets on a portable generator
I got a portable generator to use when power goes out and I was hoping someone could let me know what a 3 prong circular 120v21a outlet would be used for? The generator also has a dc 12v 8a posts...any ideas what they would be used for? I can post pictures if needed. Thanks!
Post that picture----I think half of our members are off shopping--so be patient---
Try posting the manufacturer and model number, and a link to a picture of it.
If the 12 volt, 8 amp posts are what I think they are, they are for charging a storage battery. Hard to tell without more information.
20 amp 120 volt twistlocks are very common on large construction sites. Some contractors do not allow straight blade (household) cords.
The 12 volt posts are for charging 12 volt batteries. Be careful, the typical output is usually somewhere between 15 and 18 volts, and the voltage is not regulated. If you're not careful, you can boil a battery dry.
Hope this picture helps I had to take it on my cellphone. Thanks for the replies!
By golly the poster was correct, the twist-locks are 21 amp outlets. But note: The third one is a four (4) pole connector with two (2) circuit breakers and the poles are split in a way I have never seen. Interesting.
I know, had to get this generator when Sandy hit, not the one I wanted at all but I guess need to be thankful that I got one.
The main reason for using a 120v twist lock is to prevent the cord from inadvertently being pulled out of the receptacle.
It also absolutely ensures that the cord is plugged into a 20 amp outlet.
There is no such thing as a 21 amp outlet. It might be fused at that but they come in standard 20 and 30 amp ratings.
It looks like an L5-20, 120 volt 3 wire. You could make up an adapter to use it to power an RV.
The third outlet is an L6-20 or 30. The tab at the top is the ground, the ones on each side are the two hot legs, the botton is the "neutral."
It should say on it, somewhere.
The 12 volt terminals are just that 12 volts DC. Use them to power 12 volt equipment like might be found in an RV or to charge 12 volt batteries.
The 12V output on generators is often very poorly regulated and is intended only for charging batteries, not directly powering DC loads. If you want to use it for 12V equipment, connect a 12V lead acid battery to it (motorcycle size would be convenient) and run your 12V equipment from that.

Space Policy Events for the Week of December 9-13, 2013 - UPDATE
The following events may be of interest in the week ahead. The House and Senate both are in session.
During the Week
The House is scheduled to adjourn for the year on Friday; the Senate plans to be here one more week after that. If those schedules hold, this is the last week in 2013 that they both will be in session and thus able to get legislation passed and to the White House. Many Senators say that of all the pending legislation, they really want to get the FY2014 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed, but they didn't make much progress before the Thanksgiving break because of partisan disputes over amendments. The House passed its version in June. This is the one authorization bill that always gets through no matter how tough the political times -- a 51-year record. Will this year be the exception?
Friday, December 13, is not only the last scheduled day for the House to meet this year, but is also the deadline for the budget conference committee to reach agreement on federal funding for FY2014, at least. The conference committee was created as part of the deal to reopen the government in October and even at the time few were optimistic it would meet that deadline. Nothing has changed.
Lots of interesting events this week, including a Senate Commerce subcommittee hearing on "weather readiness" that includes Tom Young reporting on his Independent Review Team that is watching over NOAA's weather satellite programs. That's on Thursday at 10:30 am. Note that It's not in the committee's regular hearing room in the Russell Building, but in G-50 Dirksen. The previous day, a House subcommittee will hold a hearing on "A Factual Look at the Relationship Between Climate and Weather." The witnesses have not been announced yet, so it's not clear how much if any of that deals with satellite issues.
Separately, the House Science, Space and Technology Committee may resume its markup of the bill that affects how NASA handles termination liability for its major human spaceflight programs (SLS, Orion and ISS). The committee approved three bills on Thursday, but when it came to this one, chairman Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX) said more time was needed for Republicans and Democrats to work out their differences so the bill has bipartisan support. He tentatively set Tuesday at 2:00 pm EST to resume the markup, but it is not definite. At stake is how $507 million in the hands of contractors will be spent -- to execute the programs or held in reserve in case the government terminates the contracts.
Across the country in San Francisco all week, the American Geophysical Union (AGU) annual meeting is certain to be chock full of fascinating scientific findings. Many press conferences are scheduled and will be livestreamed. We created a list of those that are probably most interesting to the space community, but the full list is on the AGU website, so you can pick your own. That website has a tab labeled "Webstreaming." Click on that to listen in.
Meanwhile, the NASA Advisory Council (NAC) and several of its committees are meeting down in Florida, at Kennedy Space Center. NASA is restructuring NAC, getting rid of three committees and merging a fourth (Commercial Space) into one of the remaining committees. The way NASA and NAC chairman Steve Squyres describe the situation it's a done deal, but there might be some discussion of why the decision was made and its implications. NAC itself meets on Wednesday and Thursday. The NAC meeting and most NAC committee meetings are available via WebEx and telecom. See our calendar entries for instructions on how to tune in. NASA has not posted an agenda for the NAC meeting yet. Hopefully it will before the meeting takes place. If so, it should be posted on the NAC website.
Those and many more meetings of interest are in the list below. These are the ones we know of as of Sunday morning. We're posting this a bit early today because there's a nasty ice storm coming this afternoon and there's a chance of losing power, so we wanted to get this up on the website before anything bad happens.

Cherry (1999)
directed by
Jon Glascoe, Joseph Pierson
featuring Shalom Harlow, Jake Weber, Isaach de Bankolé, Laurel Holloman, Donovan Leitch
In the romantic comedy Cherry, Leila Sweet (Shalom Harlow) has begun to hear the faint rumblings of her biological clock at the age of 29. This isn't ... Show synopsis In the romantic comedy Cherry, Leila Sweet (Shalom Harlow) has begun to hear the faint rumblings of her biological clock at the age of 29. This isn't unusual in itself, but Leila's key obstacle in her dilemma about having a child is rather uncommon -- she's still a virgin. Leila was stood up at the altar ten years ago and promptly swore off men forever; since then, she graduated from Harvard and moved to New York City, where she runs a muffin shop and keeps a dog for company. Leila is now determined to have a baby but isn't willing to forgive the enemy in the process, so she begins advertising for sperm donors willing to assist in artificial insemination. However, most of the respondents remind her why she gave up on men in the first place. Circumstances soon force her to take a closer look at two of her neighbors who seem fond of her -- a professional clown named Eddie (Donovan Leitch) and a gynecologist named, we kid you not, Beverly Kirk (Jake Weber). While Leila weighs her options, Beverly meets a pair of sweet-natured street kids in dire need of a loving mother. Shalom Harlow, who played Matt Dillon's dim-witted super model girlfriend in In & Out, gives an able comic performance as the most beautiful 29-year-old virgin in New York in this film, which was screened at the 1999 Los Angeles Independent Film Festival.

SAN DIEGO -- On most nights, scoring only one run for ace Jake Peavy would have meant a loss for the San Diego Padres.
But the Padres have been lights-out against Los Angeles this season, and a hard single by Mike Piazza supplied all the offense Peavy needed in a 1-0 win on Tuesday night that pulled San Diego within two games of the NL West-leading Dodgers.
"We came in here today and showed the first-place team that we're not scared and that we can play with anybody," said Peavy, who held Los Angeles to three hits in seven dominating innings.
"An offensive explosion wasn't there tonight, but we found a way to win," Peavy added. "We understand what we have to do as a team to win. It's winning close ballgames like this and pitching just enough. That's how we got there last year and it's how we're going to do what we need to do this year."
The defending division champion Padres have won 10 of their last 11 against their biggest rival. By winning the first two of the three-game series, the Padres ended the Dodgers' string of seven straight series victories. That Dodgers' run began after they were swept by the Padres at Dodger Stadium July 24-26.
"The matchup of these two clubs has not been good," Dodgers manager Grady Little said. "We have a few games to see if we can get it turned around."
Los Angeles has lost four of six games following a 17-1 stretch.
Trevor Hoffman pitched the ninth for his NL-best 33rd save in 37 chances. He moved to 469 for his career, 10 short of breaking Lee Smith's record. It was San Diego's ninth shutout, second-best in the NL behind Houston's 10.
Julio Lugo singled with two outs in the ninth, his third hit, to give the Dodgers runners on first and second, before Olmedo Saenz grounded into a forceout.
Piazza snapped the longest hitless streak of his career, 0-for-26, when his hard single with two outs in the sixth inning bounced off shortstop Rafael Furcal's glove and rolled onto the outfield grass, allowing rookie Josh Barfield to score. Barfield hit a leadoff double that landed on the left-field line, and he advanced on Mike Cameron's fly ball.
It was Piazza's first hit since he homered twice off Pedro Martinez in a 4-3 loss at the New York Mets on Aug. 9.
"It happens, man," Piazza said of his slump. "This is a hard game sometimes. I was just happy I hit the ball hard."
Piazza knows that Peavy's record could be better than 7-12.
"Lord knows, aside from this offensive explosion tonight, he's not had a lot of run support," Piazza said.
Dodgers starter Mark Hendrickson said he left the pitch to Piazza over the middle of the plate "and he got a good swing on it."
The Padres have scored two or fewer runs in 12 of Peavy's 25 starts.
Peavy struck out seven and walking one.
"He was locked in tonight and he made quality pitches," Julio Lugo said. "He was challenging me all night."
The Dodgers' best chance to score came in the fifth, when Lugo bounced a leadoff double over the fence in left-center. He stole third with two outs, but Peavy got Furcal to fly out to center.
After Jeff Kent drew a leadoff walk in the seventh, San Diego got a room-service play when second baseman Barfield booted Andre Ethier's grounder right to shortstop Manny Alexander, who fell down corralling the ball but got his right foot on the bag for the force.
Hendrickson (1-6) gave up one run and five hits in six innings. He struck out four and walked one.
- San Diego remained two games behind Cincinnati in the NL wild-card race
- Padres RHP Chan Ho Park received two more units of blood as doctors worked to narrow down the cause of intestinal bleeding that put him back on the 15-day DL for the second time in less than a month. Park was hospitalized overnight after a recurrence of the bleeding on Monday.
- To take his roster spot, rookie Mike Thompson was promoted from Triple-A Portland for the fifth time this season.

House Republican divide keeps lid on US highway projects
* A reluctance to spend billions to create thousands of jobs
* Major crossing near Speaker Boehner's Ohio district in limbo
* Little progress seen on bill before Nov. 6 election
By David Lawder
WASHINGTON, April 25 (Reuters) - Nearly every day, rush-hour traffic backs up for miles on both ends of the overburdened Brent Spence Bridge, which spans the Ohio River and links Cincinnati with its suburbs in Kentucky.
The bridge, one of the busiest in the U.S. interstate system, has been dubbed "functionally obsolete" by the federal government because its narrow four lanes on each level - originally designed as three lanes - create massive bottlenecks for traffic.
For commuters and businesses desperate for an improved crossing, the good news is that they have a powerful friend in Congress: U.S. House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican whose district includes Cincinnati suburbs.
But a $2.4 billion plan to replace the Interstate 71/75 bridge has gotten little help from Boehner's House of Representatives, which abandoned efforts to pass long-term federal highway funding in favor of two 90-day extensions, the second of which passed last week.
In the process, the highway bill has become a symbol of Boehner's frustrations in dealing with budget-conscious Republicans allied with the Tea Party movement. Continued...

When I worked at a vet hospital people asked me all the time whether dog's mouths were cleaner than humans. I always told them it was an old wive's tale & wondered about their personal hygiene. Turns out I was wrong!
I recall the Erol Flynn autobiography "My Wicked, Wicked Ways." He got into a confrontation in the Mediterranean while on a yacht and sustained a serious HUMAN bite. He almost lost his arm. Give me a (nonrabid) dog bite any day.

As we bid adieu to one decade and move into the next, it's important to catch our collective breath and to take a quick look ahead. Here are some quick thoughts on the trends that will shape advanced analytics in the year to come. These trends will set the stage for thoroughgoing transformation of business intelligence (BI), data warehousing (DW), predictive analytics (PA), data mining (DM), business activity monitoring (BAM), complex event processing (CEP), and other key analytics technologies in the Teens:

As 2009 draws to a close, what are the key trends that customer management business process professionals need to pay attention to as you finalize your plans for next year?
Beginning in mid-2009, I have seen a strong up-tick in investment dollars being released by organizations intent on improving their customer management capabilities to capitalize on the economic up-turn. What are their key priorities? My most recent research shows that both B2B and B2C enterprises spotlight improved customer loyalty as their top goal. But, B2B companies are also intent on capturing new customers, while B2C companies obsess about improving the customer experience.

Bloomberg Hopes Olympics put Spotlight on China
New York, NY —
Mayor Michael Bloomberg says when the Olympic Games begin tomorrow in Beijing, he hopes the attention will highlight the progress he says has taken place in China. He said the Olympics also provide a stage for the United States to promote democracy in China.
BLOOMBERG: And it's a good opportunity - I thought the president of the United States stood up this morning and said what a lot of Americans believe: that individual rights aren't as open there as they are in America, and that they should be.
REPORTER: The mayor also approved of the president's decision to attend the games, despite pressure from human rights advocates.

I have had IBS with prominent diarrhea for many years now. Have been using this for 2 weeks now and have become a huge fan already. It has greatly relieved my symptoms. I would however caution against using this with other fiber products such as All-Bran plus. I used to drink a shake every morning which I made using All-bran plus as a base. Using both gave me extreme flatulence for a few hours a day. Since I was not planning on giving up using psyllium, I quit with the shake and have had no problems since then. I highly recommend this product for anyone with IBS. It has greatly changed my life.
I Will not do without Whole Psyllium Husk!

I have been taking whole Psyllium Husk for several years now. I started by my husband and I doing a colon cleanse for 3 months. Shortly after that my husband had a colonoscopy done. The Dr. commented how clean the colon was . That was what I was told in the booklet "Cleansing or Surgery". It said to be sure and use the Whole Psyllium Husk and not the powder since that would clog the walls rather than clean them. The whole husk would scrub the intestinal walls. The Dr. proved that this was true. Now my husband and I are taking a Tbsp. twice a day. It keeps us regular. I highly recommend this product!!!

I eat a whole food diet full of lots of veggies, so I get tons of fiber. BUT...I take psyllium daily because it acts like a broom in your system, and keeping your colon clean is KEY to excellent health! I recommend it highly!!!
Good to go.

Had them balanced on a regular machine and then just had them balanced on a road force balance machine and the vibration still exists. Car has 28,000 and is used for 90% highway driving. Any ideas here?

Hurricane's program has racked up a lot of impressive numbers in recent years.
In fact, the Redskins' current seniors can count the following accomplishments:
n Victories in 92 of 112 games since the start of the 2011 season, a sparkling .821 winning percentage.
n Three straight appearances in the Mountain State Athletic Conference championship game, including a pair of titles.
n Two berths in the finals of the Ed Carter Memorial Tournament, including a championship Saturday via an 11-1 win against Winfield.
n Also, the Redskins have spent nary a day outside the top 10 of the state ratings.
But for all those achievements, there's one big thing missing — a spot in the Class AAA state tournament. Hurricane hasn't made it that far since capturing its lone state title in 2002. The current batch of Skins, in fact, hasn't made it past the regional semifinals the last three seasons.
Something always seems to break down at the wrong time for the Redskins — either the pitching allows an untimely run or the offense fails to produce with runners in scoring position.
In the last three postseasons, Hurricane has found itself eliminated with a one-run loss — 1-0 and 2-1 to Cabell Midland in the Region 4 semifinals and 5-4 to Winfield in the sectional finals in 2012.
Hurricane is hopeful that 2014 brings about a different ending to its season, with the Skins perhaps riding the coattails of the basketball team's impromptu run to the Class AAA championship game, a one-point loss to Huntington.
The Redskins, at 14-4 and No. 2 in last week's AAA state poll, appear to be rounding into stretch-run form.
They've scored exactly 11 runs in each of their last four games and have allowed only 55 runs all season — with just two opponents managing more than five in a single game. On offense, five starters are hitting between .327 and .386, with 53 extra-base knocks in 18 games.
"We've been playing together ever since Little League,'' said second baseman Ace Estep, one of five senior starters, "and finally, I think we're all just coming together and we're grooving. It really feels as if everyone's working together as a team.''
Brian Sutphin, in his sixth season as Redskins coach, agrees that his experienced team appears to be developing its own sort of harmony.
"That's the plan,'' Sutphin said. "I think that these guys are guys who have been around a little bit and they kind of know what they're expected to do as far as effort and as far as attitude, and we're just kind of climbing that mountain.''
No change at Nitro
For about one week last summer, Nitro was preparing for life without Steve Pritchard as its baseball coach.
Pritchard, after 12 seasons and two Class AAA state titles with the Wildcats, had accepted a position as assistant principal at Chapmanville Regional in early July and said his goodbyes to Nitro's players and coaches.
But it didn't get much further than that.
Less than a week later, Pritchard, a single father, had a change of heart and opted to stay at Nitro and continue to coach in order to remain with his teen-aged daughter.
Nitro fans have to be pleased that Pritchard remained, since the Wildcats have shot out to a 16-5 record and were ranked No. 1 in AAA last week. Pritchard also went over the 300-win mark with Nitro earlier this season.
Pritchard said that little changed in the week that he was unofficially out as coach.
"To be quite honest, I told [the players] what I was going to do,'' Pritchard said, "and kept the weight room open for them for that amount of time. As far as they knew, I was going to Chapmanville, but I was here at 9 o'clock to open the weight room and lift just like if I was the coach.
"Then I met with them the following Monday and told them I was going to stay, and they were happy, and I was happy. So really nothing's changed.''
Pritchard admits that — even after turning down Chapmanville — he might not have stuck around as Nitro coach if his current group of players weren't "good kids to be around.''
"If they weren't that good, I may be in Chapmanville because that was a great opportunity for me,'' he said. "[It was] because my daughter wanted to come here, but if it wasn't for these kids, they would have a new coach because I just think that much of them.
"I'm toward the end of my career, and these guys are really the reason I'm here.''
Smooth sailing at Hoover
If Herbert Hoover was in for a letdown after taking last year's Class AA championship, well, then the fallout hasn't hit Falling Rock quite yet.
The Huskies have stormed to 17 wins in their first 20 games, losing only to Class AAA opponents (Ripley twice, 7-3 and 5-4 and Point Pleasant 10-5).
Hoover has gone 15-0 against AA teams, including 10-0 against Cardinal Conference foes (six of those by 10-plus runs). The Huskies are 1-3 versus AAA, 1-0 against single-A and 3-0 versus ranked teams (wins against Chapmanville, Sissonville, Charleston Catholic).
"They've been pretty focused,'' said Herbert Hoover coach Brian Young. "We had a couple of close games against Ripley we lost, but we've been playing real well at times. They've definitely stepped up and met the expectations for another good season.
"That's been the goal to get back down [to Power Park] and give it a good shot. They're working just as hard as last year, and that's good to see.''

The geek-cation staycation: Vacations in NYC for nerds
Let your nerd flag fly with these staycation ideas for fans of Dr. Who, old-school cartoons and nerdy subcultures.
Don't stay in and rewatch the entire Buffy series (your VHS copy is about to give out anyway). Commune with fellow unrepentant geeks at a bar with Dr. Who flourishes, a gathering of retro-cartoon fanatics and other nerds of all different stripes. Who knows, maybe you'll find a staycation romance with your very own Buffy.
RECOMMENDED: Full list of staycation ideas
Commune with Whovians at the Way Station
It's tempting to spend your staycation indoors, binge-watching the BBC's Doctor Who reboot on Netflix over a weekend. But when you're ready to engage with other Captain Jack Harkness obsessives, head to this proudly geeky Prospect Heights watering hole. Debate the relative merits of the different Doctors (10th or 11th?) with your fellow nerds as you sip a cocktail based on elements of the British show (including the Companion, which pairs a PBR with a shot of whiskey; $6). And should nature call, you can excuse yourself to the TARDIS-shaped bathroom.
Get a blast from the past at Spoons, Toons and Booze at Nitehawk Cinema
Nostalgic party-planners Secret Formula will throw several of these bashes, during which you watch Saturday-morning cartoons while imbibing adult beverages, over the next three months. As you giggle over the old-school shenanigans, chow down on sugary cereal (there's an all-you-can-eat buffet included in the ticket price), or toss back the Sonny—a White Russian topped with Cocoa Puffs for $7. $16.
Load up on comics (or toys or manga) at Forbidden Planet
Discover a new nerdy subculture at this massive shop, which stocks more than 50,000 volumes of graphic novels and manga. You'll find toys, action figures (Avengers figurines are especially popular these days), quirky character T-shirts and comic books (new arrivals hit shelves every Wednesday), as well as longer tomes, such as Alison Bechdel's Are You My Mother? ($16 in paperback, $22 in hardcover). Peruse anime DVDs and books, as well as offbeat horror and imported magazines like Hobby Japan and role-playing games.

Travel Guide Asia India Kerala
© All Rights Reserved arif_kool
The state of Kerala, divided into 14 districts has emerged as one of the hottest tourist destination in India over the period of years. This lush green state lies in a narrow strip of land bounded by the Arabian Sea in the west and the Western Ghats on the east and bisected by numerous small streams. A long coastline lined with plenty of clean and beautiful beaches, vast stretches of Backwaters, hill stations full of exotic wild life, sprawling tea plantations, traditional art forms and dances, exotic cuisine and the famous "Ayurvedic" treatments have all made Kerala a dream destination for tourists, both domestic and international. Kerala is often referred to as "Gods Own Country" as the region has preserved much of its natural beauty.
Kerala has the highest literacy rate amongst all the states of India. The people of this state are simple, God-fearing and hospitable. The local language spoken here is Malayalam, but the majority of locals can speak communicable English.
"Ayurvedic" treatments have become very popular among the foreign tourists. This is an ancient form of treatment which uses herbs and leaves having curative properties. These herbs are extracted from the forests which are scattered all over Kerala. Ayurveda believes in not only the treatment of the affected part, but the individual as a whole. It is natural way to rejuvenate yourself thereby eliminating all the toxic elements of the body. The monsoon season is considered the best for such therapy as the atmosphere is dust free and cool enabling the body to open up the pores of the skin so that they respond well to the herbal oils. Since this form of medicine has become extremely popular, many such centres have cropped up. Tourists are advised to take treatment in government approved Ayurveda centres.
Kerala lies between the Lakshadweep sea and the Western Ghats, roughly between north latitudes 8°18' and 12°48' and east longitudes 74°52' and 77°22'. The state has a coastline of about 590 kilometres and geographically, the state can be divided into three climatically distinct regions: the eastern highlands (rugged and cool mountainous terrain), the central midlands (rolling hills), and the western lowlands (coastal plains). The eastern region of Kerala consists of high mountains, gorges and deep-cut valleys immediately west of the Western Ghats' rain shadow. The Western Ghats form a wall of mountains interrupted only near Palakkad, where the Palakkad Gap breaks through to provide access to the rest of India. The Western Ghats rises on average to 1,500 metres above sea level, while the highest peaks reach to more than 2,500 metres. Anamudi, the highest peak in South India, is at an elevation of 2,695 metres. Just west of the mountains lie the midland plains comprising central Kerala, dominated by rolling hills and valleys, ranging between elevations of 250-1,000 metres. Kerala's western coastal belt is relatively flat, and is criss-crossed by a network of interconnected brackish canals, lakes, estuaries, and rivers known as the Kerala Backwaters. Lake Vembanad, Kerala's largest body of water, dominates the Backwaters; it lies between Alappuzha and Kochi and is more than 200 km2 big. Around 8% of India's waterways (measured by length) are found in Kerala.
The entire state is so beautiful that you can spend weeks traveling and exploring Kerala. The main sights of tourist interest can be grouped under the following heads:
© All Rights Reserved arif_kool
Kerala has a rich cultural heritage and numerous traditional dance forms are popular in this region. Some of the more famous traditional dance forms are Kathakali, Mohiniyattam, Thullal and Oppana. The region is also known for the ancient Martial Arts technique. The tourism authorities hold regular shows of these dance forms to entertain the tourists. Besides these some of the other events worth watching are the Snake Boat Race and Elephant Race.
Kerala has a tropical climate and moderate weather conditions exist throughout the year though the summer months (March to May) can be quite hot. Since Kerala is located on the coast and lush green plantations are present all around the temperature are moderated to some extent. It rains heavily in Kerala during monsoon season (June to August) which keeps tourists away during this period. The best time to visit Kerala is during the winter season (November to February) when the temperature is moderate and there is hardly any rain. Temperatures during the day vary from around 28 °C in July and August to 33 °C in March. Nights are in the 23-26 °C range year round. The average annual precipitation is around 3,300mm! From December to March it's mostly dry, but from May to October it pours! Especially June and July with around 800-900mm each month are extremely wet.
Kerala has three international airports to cater the requirements of foreign and domestic tourists:
Kerala is well connected by rail network to rest of India. Direct trains are available from important cities of India to all parts of Kerala. Indian Railways operates the rail network in India.
Taxis can be hired for traveling to the state of Kerala from the neighbouring states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka but it is advisable to travel by train or plane instead as the journey is comfortable, efficient and affordable too.
Interstate buses are available from the neighbouring states but the journey can be tiring and time consuming.
Flights are available between the major cities (Trivandrum, Kochi, Kozhikode) of Kerala, but it is more convenient to cover the same distances by rail/road as the distances involved are not much and it saves the hassle which is associated with air travel.
Excellant train connection is available between most of the major cities of Kerala. With the completion of the Konkan Railway project, journey time has considerably reduced from western part of India to the major cities of Kerala.
Taxis can easily be hired for travelling to the major tourist locations of Kerala. The rates vary depending on the season in which you are visiting but it is better to enquire about the rates from more than one tour operator.
The roads are by and large good in this area and even the interior town and villages are well connected by State Transport Corporation buses. Kerala receives heavy rainfall during the monsoon season which sometimes damages the roads in interior locations. These local buses display the destination station mostly in Malayalam (local language) hence it is advisable to double check the destination station before you board the bus. Fortunately majority of local population can speak some level of English.
Many of the cities of Kerala are located along the famous Backwater Stretch extending from Kollam to Alappuzha and then from Alappuzha to Kochi. It is unique experience to undertake this inter-city travel on a boat passing through the beautiful backwaters. Regular ferry service is available from Kollam to Alappuzha at an affordable rate.
Kerala Tourism Development Corporation (KTDC) has numerous guesthouses and hotels across Kerala, which are comfortable and well-maintained. Most of the KTDC properties are for the premium segment but numerous other budget hotels and guesthouses are available to suit the needs of travellers of all budget. The peak tourist season in Kerala is from November to February, when the rates shoot up for all activities. However if u enjoy the rains and don't mind getting drenched you can try visiting Kerala during the monsoon (June to August) when the houseboats and hotels are all available at dirt-cheap rates.
