A cordial relationship with the staff by celebrating their festivals and giving them something special every day ensured that there was no absenteeism. The 22nd part of a series describing the unknown triumphs and travails of doing international business
Thanks to the very extra care that we took of our staff, we had no problems whatsoever in our work. After a brief holiday in Colombo, which enabled Piyasena Perera to be with his family, and still go through the process of selecting hundreds of new workers for the factory, he returned back to the flock. Thankfully, during the period of his absence I faced no major hiccups in production.
My next few days were spent in doing the co-ordination work with the Free Zone authorities so as to ensure expeditious processing of visa applications and actually getting the visas. These had to be notified to Haji Cader, and who, in turn had to alert the successful applicant. He/she would then submit the resignation and most of the time the companies would seek help in asking for a suitable replacement. Luckily, no local company in Sri Lanka stood in the way of their staff going abroad and in many ways even assisted them in getting their passports.
On direct orders that we had negotiated in the meanwhile, Zubair took the responsibility to ensure opening of Letters of Credit for raw materials. After all we were greenhorns in the textile industry and it was a good lapse of time before we realized in the mug's game that we were pawns. The buyer/his agent would nominate the fabric supplier for quantity and quality; likewise, we would be directed to place orders and open L/Cs for accessories on X, Y or Z, which had the materials for shipment! A certain percentage of the ordered value would be siphoned off to the buyer/agent. Likewise, we would also land up buying extra lengths of fabrics than actually required to complete the ordered quantity!
In the long run, we felt we were better off doing local contracts without having to invest money and taking risks for delays in supplies or for being 'rejected' for non procurement of 'acceptable' quality of fabric.
I think, by this time we had almost a score of manufacturers in the zone itself; the units outside the zone were multiplying; each of the Emirate was coming out with "Free Zones" and offering all kinds of services, copying the lead set up by the Jebel Ali Free Zone. If I were to hazard a wild guess, by the second year of the boom trade in the garment industry, perhaps, UAE would have issued visas for some 18,000 to 20.000 workers; a good 70% of them came from Sri Lanka.
Export from UAE to the USA was picking up at a phenomenal rate; other markets like the UK and Europe were not far behind. We also had tremendous marketing support from Hong Kong, which was the centre of activity. The other main centres of production were: India, Pakistan, China, Sri Lanka Thailand, Philippines and Bangladesh. And the competition was very, very severe.
This growth caused an unexpected bottleneck in terms of shipping space while the smaller and urgent lots were being air freighted every day. It was at this juncture, manufacturers in the Free Zone began to cultivate the fear, as to what would happen if a quota system was imposed by the USA, which was the main buyer.
Initially, we had ad hoc meetings among ourselves; ultimately, an urgent meeting of all the manufacturers in the Jebel Ali Free Zone was called, in the office of CNA, by Jamna Dattani, its chairman. After a brief discussion, in order to form an effective group to take care of the problems of the industry, Jamna, the senior most, proposed that we form an association. The association was named as JAGTA to represent Jebel Ali Garments and Textiles Association. Unanimously, Jamna was elected as its first chairman, and Fakhuruddin Amiji as the vice chairman. Proposed by Imran Khan, AK Ramdas of Finetex was elected as its secretary and spokesman.
Broadly, the factories in the Free Zone were owned and controlled by Indian or Pakistani nationals, who are even today the predominant community in the UAE, as they were at that time. It was much later we had a British company set up its plant, which had extensive interests in Sri Lanka; and a Thai unit was already operative. But, in this industry, it did not matter at all, and everyone's aim was to procure and execute the orders to the entire satisfaction of their clients.
We did not realize how fast the time flies! We were heading for the Sri Lankan New Year in the middle of April. And, we began to think the best means of celebrating the event.
In the meantime, there were a couple of things that I must tell you about what we did at Finetex, in creating extraordinary cordial relations with our staff. During my trips to Colombo, when I had the opportunity to meet a cross section of the people, I found that, like it happens in our countries like India, apples were sold definitely outside the hospitals, and this was one of the most cherished fruits that were unaffordable for the common folks. I had ensured that every day at tea break in the afternoon, every member of the Finetex staff received something special: it could be an apple today; an orange tomorrow; bananas the next day; a piece of cake, or even a packet of Horlicks or Parle's biscuits! There was no absenteeism; our boys and girls worked efficiently and maintained good healthy. It was rarely anyone fell sick or reported sick and stayed back in the camp, unless it was real and painful, and we ensured that medical attention was given without fail.
We declared a two-day holiday for celebrating the New Year; one of which was spent in celebrating the function in the factory premises, by skits, drama, dance, music and other merry making items. The next day was for sight-seeing and market visits, with choice of food, all on the house and with full wages! This was followed by yet another paid holiday for Buddha Poornima, which was wholeheartedly welcomed by the entire staff. There were a few members of the staff for whom I had arranged for special visits to the St Mary's church earlier for their Christmas mass.
We at Finetex had the best staff in the entire Free Zone and they had the best treatment, as well. I would be immodest in saying that there was none to match us in the zone in any way.
(AK Ramdas has worked with the Engineering Export Promotion Council of the ministry of commerce and was associated with various committees of the Council. His international career took him to places like Beirut, Kuwait and Dubai at a time when these were small trading outposts. From being the advisor to exporters, he took over the mantle of a trader, travelled far and wide, and switched over to setting up garment factories and then worked in the US. He can be contacted at [email protected].)

The two-member panel also held that the building was not reserved for war heroes and Kargil widows
MUMBAI: In a huge relief to Maharashtra government, the judicial commission of inquiry looking into the Adarsh housing scam has held that the land on which the controversial building stands belongs to the state and not the Army, reports PTI.
The two-member panel, which had submitted its interim report to the government last Friday, has also held that the building was not reserved for war heroes and Kargil widows.
The interim report was discussed by the Maharashtra cabinet on Tuesday, sources close to the development said, adding it is likely to be tabled in the legislature later in the day.
The commission headed by former Bombay high court judge JA Patil includes former state chief secretary P Subramanian.
The report, according to sources, has thrown light on the issues of ownership of the land on which the 31-storey high-rise stands in upscale Colaba, and if it was reserved for war heroes and Kargil conflict widows.
The allegations in the case are that the land was allotted by the state government to the Adarsh Society though it belonged to the defence ministry, and the building came up in violation of several civic and environmental norms.
The state government had approached the commission a few months ago seeking an interim report on the points of title and reservation.
The Maharashtra government had appointed the two-member panel to probe the Adarsh Society scam in January last year.
The panel has been tasked with probing all aspects of the scam, including ownership of the land and allotment, as well as alleged violations of rules in grant of various clearances to the building. The commission is also looking into violation of coastal zone regulations.
A number of top civil and Army officials and politicians, including former chief minister Ashok Chavan, are alleged to have facilitated clearances for the building and got flats in it as quid pro quo.
Nine of the 14 accused, including two senior IAS officers, have been arrested for their alleged involvement in the scam.
In the near future one KYC with any one of the KYC Registration Authority (KRA) will suffice for all the transactions across spectrum of the financial sector
New Delhi: Aiming to ease procedural hurdles that investors face, market regulator the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) today said it was in talks with other regulators, including RBI and IRDA, for common know-your-customer norms for the financial sector.
"We are in dialogue with the banking regulator, insurance regulator. We are working towards that. In the near future one KYC with any one of the KYC Registration Authority (KRA) will suffice for all the transactions across spectrum of the financial sector, SEBI Chairman UK Sinha said at the CII's AGM.
Mr Sinha said SEBI was in talks with regulators in this regard and the common KYC may come soon. "The long-term plan, on which we have already started working, is how to ensure that for all the transactions in the financial sector...Can the same KYC suffice?" he added.
At present, there are different requirements and yardsticks for KYC in the financial sector.
However, for securities transactions SEBI already has come out with a common KYC. At present, there are three KRAs. If an investor registers with one of the KRAs, then for any other transaction in the securities market he does not need to go for another round of KYC.
On retail participation, Mr Sinha said one of the reasons for less participation was lack of awareness. "We are going to launch a very massive drive towards investor education and we would be very happy if agencies or individual corporate start cooperating with us in spreading that message," he added.
He also pointed out that in recent times, a large number of Indians have started to rely on gold as a safe asset in comparison to other financial assets.
This is primarily because investors are losing confidence in the market and there is lack of awareness about various financial assets, he said.
He said in order to motivate people to invest in capital market, there is a need to provide investors with good quality financial assets.
"SEBI will ensure a reliable system whereby people are assured that there are uniform rules of the game and if these rules are not maintained they will be taken to task in order to increase market confidence," he said.

5 Things Businesses Need to Know About Data Science
In a recent post on Exchange Wire, Krux's chief data scientist Yacov Solomon shared his perspective on data science and its role for the enterprise.
Here's an excerpt:
Everyone is saying Big Data is the next big thing for companies of all sizes. To understand its full potential, it is also important to become familiar with data science. Ultimately, business results do not rest solely on how much data a business has, or finding ways to create more, but on how an enterprise goes about leveraging that information, says Yacov Salomon, head of data science, Krux.
Data science, as a discipline, is a dynamic and multifaceted blending of technology, mathematics, and human insight. As companies approach Big Data and consider the role data science plays within their operations, there are five questions to consider.
1. What is the first step companies should take in employing data science?
Companies should first address specific goals and evaluate what they want to achieve with big data. Smart technologies and people are necessary to manage data, sift through, analyse, and bring what's relevant to the surface. For some companies this means investing in the right people – building and refining integrated, in-house data science teams, and embracing a data-driven transformation. For others it might be investing in the right tools and relying on outside consultants and experts to lead the way. There is no one-size-fits-all approach.Read this article on ExchangeWire

(Home of Prozac and Bourbon)
So Lawrence Taylor, William Green and Butch Davis walk into a bar and one of them is talking crazy stuff. Can I say this, as a lifelong Browns' fan – Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!
Five years into an expansion program, this team has:
- no offensive line
- no quarterback
- no tight end
- a running back with an actual knife in his back
- no identity – none, zero (maybe saddest of all)
- a 4-8 record
- orange pants
This week, Butch Davis said, "You can win a Super Bowl with some of these guys."
As my guru – Otis the hippie bass player – pointed out to me, you can win a Super Bowl with Trent Dilfer.
I want to know where are the superstars to carry "some of these guys" to the Lombardi trophy?
But even if Butch Davis is right about the talent level of some areas on the team, it's a tough sell to make it sound like these are the good old days.
And he blames the record on injuries? Puhleeze!!
I live in New England. You should see what a coach like Bill Belichick does when his team has injuries.
Why can't the Browns get a coach like that?
SEAHAWKS AT VIKINGS – The Seahawks realize that playing the Browns last week was just like playing the old Bengals and the season goes on against competition that has better talent than "some of these guys." Seahawks 23, Vikings 20.
TEXANS AT JAGUARS – Expansion-logic torture continues for Cleveland Browns fans as the Houston Texans fight their way towards a .500 record. Texans 22, Jaguars 14.
BEARS AT PACKERS – Losing to the Lions on Thanksgiving is what every team does, and now the Packers must rebound against their blood rival. One of their guys is named Brett Favre, so it's a done deal. Packers 29, Bears 13.
CHARGERS AT LIONS – Steve Mariucci motivated his players by saying, "Someday as we move forward we are going to be on Monday Night Football or in playoff games." It's good to dream the big dream. Why bother to mention such a thing as the Super Bowl? Lions 20, Chargers 10.
BENGALS AT RAVENS – This battle for first place in the AFC North was brought to you by the Depression Institute of Northeast Ohio. Bengals 20, Ravens 10.
COLTS AT TITANS – After Peyton Manning loses a huge game, as he did against New England, he can come back to win a game that means a little bit less, because that's the kind of quarterback he's always been. Colts 30, Titans 23.
RAIDERS AT STEELERS – Wait a minute! I thought the Steelers dumbest team in America. Oh yeah, it's Steelers' fans that are the dumbest in America. Steelers 17, Raiders 13.
COWBOYS AT EAGLES – Andy Reid is so happy after winning the "I'm a fatter coach than you" bet against Bill Parcells that he doesn't realize it was a ploy by Parcells to get the Eagles to have a letdown. Once the Cowboys win, Bill Parcells goes the fridge and eats the fat he had vacuumed from his body in order to lose the bet and win the game. Cowboys 27, Eagles 17.
REDSKINS AT GIANTS – Daniel Snyder tries to get Wellington Mara to fire Jim Fassell at halftime so that he can fire Steve Spurrier, hire Fassell and then fire him too before the game is over. Giants 30, Redskins 7.
BUCCANEERS AT SAINTS – The lesson of last year's Super Bowl champion is that a year is not enough time to party after you win the ultimate prize. I feel their pain. Saints 30, Buccaneers 13.
CARDINALS AT 49ERS – The Arizona Cardinals have been kicked out of the National Football League for failure to field an actual team. 49ers 11, Cardinals 0.
DOLPHINS AT PATRIOTS – Willie McGinest last week recovered from a clock-stopping leg injury to make a goal line tackle and then immediately high-step dash like Deion Sanders to the 50-yard line. This week, McGinest begins his spokesman's career for Uncle Joe's Snakeoil, which cures all ills as soon as Uncle Joe drives out of town – or the official calls timeout. Patriots 24, Dolphins 21.
CHIEFS AT BRONCOS – Once an undefeated team has been defeated, they are easier to defeat. Broncos 32, Chiefs 27.
JETS AT BILLS – The Jets are the best team in football now that they've reached the point where they can't possibly be the best team in football. Jets 37, Bills 14.
PANTHERS AT FALCONS – The first place Panthers are so glad to thank Michael Vick for missing most of the season while his Falcons fell to last place that they act like they owe him something. Falcons 26, Panthers 10.
RAMS AT BROWNS – Finally, the Browns' strategy has to be simplified to fashion – if they wear the classic brown jerseys and white pants, they have a chance to win. But if they put their orange helmets up against orange jerseys or orange pants, they will learn the meaning of the sentence, "You can win the Super Bowl with some of these guys" because it will be followed with, "guys like Marshall Faulk." Okay, somehow, maybe because Lee Suggs runs for 3 touchdowns: Browns 28, Rams 24.
Last week, Boomer Esiason feigned shock because of the things Lawrence Taylor said on 60 minutes. Yet I don't remember Boomer playing for the Raiders.

the belief in many gods. Polytheism characterizes virtually all religions other than Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, which share a common tradition of monotheism, the belief in one God. Sometimes above the many gods a polytheistic religion will have a supreme creator and focus of devotion, as in certain phases of Hinduism (there is also the tendency to identify the many gods as so many aspects of the Supreme Being); sometimes the gods are considered as less important than some higher goal, state, or saviour, as in Buddhism; sometimes one god will prove more dominant than the others without attaining overall supremacy, as Zeus in Greek religion. Typically, polytheistic cultures include belief in many demonic and ghostly forces in addition to the gods, and some supernatural beings will be malevolent; even in monotheistic religions there can be belief in many demons, as in New Testament Christianity. Polytheism can bear various relationships to other beliefs. It can be incompatible...

Description: This third edition underscores that interest in the legal, social, and policy contexts of campus crime has not waned. Among the purposes of this new edition is the desire to share with readers the advancements that have occurred in understanding campus crime, especially the dynamics of college student victimization, and efforts to effectively address campus security issues. Presented in three sections, the first examines the legal context of crime by offering five chapters whose focus is on the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act and its state-level progenies. The chapters acquaint the reader with the genesis and evolution of Clery, the current state of research concerning public awareness and impact, the results and impact of the National Campus Sexual Assault Policy Study, and national-level comparative analysis of state based Clery-style legislation. The six chapters of Section II address topics such as victimization rates of students versus nonstudents; lifestyle theories explaining student victimization; how alcohol use and abuse are correlates to student victimization; an overview of the literature on the sexual victimization of college women; and an analysis of the extent, nature, and impact of stalking and cyberstalking behaviors perpetrated against and by college students. The four chapters of the final section focus on the evolution, organization, and practices of campus law enforcement agencies, the challenges of enforcing alcohol laws, and the challenges presented by high-tech crimes involving the Internet, information systems, and technology. The book's goal was to bring together authors who could provide the most current picture and a critical analysis of issues concerning the legal, social, and policy contexts of campus crime and security. The text represents the most up-to-date resource for campus adminstrators, law enforcent and security personnel, criminologists, counseling professionals, political scientists, sociologists, lawyers, and policy advocates.

About the Friends of the Hampstead Public Library
The Friends of the Hampstead Public Library is an organization whose goal is to provide support for the library and its many activities while having fun at the same time. Memberships start at $5 and are open to anyone who has an interest in our library. Remember, all contributions are tax deductible and you can choose which level of financial commitment to make!
The second Tuesday of each month, September through April, at 7 PM, the Friends sponsor an evening program that is free and open to the general public. These programs can be entertaining, informational or instructional (or all three at once). In the past, we've had impersonators, singers, authors, and dancers, as well as demonstrations on cooking and flower arranging, to name just a few.
Each May, we host a Pot Luck Dinner where everyone is invited to bring a dish to share and members vote in officers for the upcoming season.
The Elaine David Thrift Shop's purpose is to raise money to support the library. Funds raised from this shop help support the Library in various ways, such as museum passes, the Summer Reading Program, the book discussion series and materials and equipment needed by the library but not covered by the budget.
Friends' business meetings are held after the regularly scheduled programs at the Library. Business meetings are open to all members and are run by the Executive Board that consists of the following officers:
President: Marcia Blaine
Vice President: Linda Skidmore
Treasurer: Faith Merchant
Secretary: Janet Eagleson
Other board positions include:
Program Coordinator: Louise Pryor
Library Liaison: Janet Arden
Auditor: Emily Reschberger
Do you know that the Friends of the Hampstead Public Library have a variety of gift items for sale at the library? If you're looking for a gift for someone who loves the library - any library for that matter - the Story Garden tote bag is a great item. The Hampstead Garden Club created and maintains the lovely Story Garden behind the building and the Friends chose to feature it on the heavy-duty tote bag. We also have DVDs of Don Duston's history and tour of Hampstead, Maurice Randall's History of Hampstead, New Hampshire, and note cards of the three artist exhibit held at the library in 2006. Just ask at the front desk if you're interested in any of these items.
If you use the library but haven't yet joined the Friends of the Hampstead Public Library, please think about doing so. It's only $5 per year for an individual membership although there are also other categories that cost more and therefore benefit the library more. Brochures with membership forms are available at the front desk of the library or download a membership form. You can also stay abreast of our activities by "liking" the Friends on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/friendshampsteadpubliclibrary).
The Friends of the Hampstead Public Library are continually seeking volunteers to join one of our committees or simply attend our meetings to listen or contribute creative fund raising and marketing ideas.

Matt did a brilliant job repointing two walls of our house at a competitive price. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again in future.
Excellent workmanship. So good in fact we have asked him to do a lot more work for us. Friendly, conscientious, clean and tidy.
Stuart worked very hard and finished the job to a high standard and a fair price. Would highly recommend
Very professional in all areas and did an excellent job. They shared some good ideas about the future development of our garden along the way too. We will be using them again in the future.
Sebastian and his colleagues were fantastic. They completed the required work quickly and to a very high standard. The price quoted was just right. The team turned up on time and cleaned up after themselves - leaving the area in a much better state than when they had started. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sebastian and his team, indeed we are looking for them to do further work for us, and we have recommended them widely to neighbours.

THE Bomb Squad were called to a house following the discovery of a man's dead body.
The body was in the back garden of a semi-detatched house in Princess Avenue, Cheadle Hulme.
The Bomb Squad were called after Second World War explosives were found in the house on Saturday afternoon.
Police said the 21-year-old man's death was not suspcious.
The three-bedroom house backs onto a primary school and was sealed off as experts and a bomb disposal robot were sent to the house.
A police spokesman said: "At 2.30pm police were called to an address in Princess Avenue because of concerns for the occupant.
"The body of a 21-year-old man was found in the rear garden and he was pronounced dead at the scene. There were no suspicious circumstances.
"A search of the house revealed items of Second World War memorabilia, including two stick bombs, and in the interest of safety the bomb disposal team were called in."

Former England captain John Terry refused to shake hands with FA chairman David Bernstein at Friday's Champions League trophy handover.
Bernstein ruled that Chelsea defender Terry should be stripped of the England captaincy after being charged with racially abusing Anton Ferdinand of Queens Park Rangers in October 2011.
Terry and club mates Frank Lampard, Branislav Ivanovic, Petr Cech and Fernando Torres were at the handover in London's Whitehall when the trophy they won last year was presented to Britain's Sports Minister Hugh Robertson by Uefa president Michel Platini.
The Chelsea skipper rejected Bernstein's attempt to shake hands when the two came together after the presentation ceremony.
"It's a difficult one for me – he went and spoke about me in the court case," Terry told Sky Sports television.
Asked if he shook Bernstein's hand, the Chelsea defender replied: "No".
Terry was cleared of the racism charge in court but the FA later banned him for four matches for the incident that occurred in a Premier League match between QPR and Chelsea at Loftus Road.
Bernstein said he had no idea the Chelsea player had snubbed him.
"My relationships with everyone here are really fantastic," the FA chairman told reporters. "I didn't notice a thing and I think we should talk about more positive things than that sort of nonsense."
Asked about his relationship with Terry, Bernstein said they were "a little distant" but he did not seem too bothered about improving matters.
"I don't know," he added. "I'm not really terribly concerned, I have other things to think about. In my last three months in the job I have other priorities."
This season's Champions League final is being staged at Wembley Stadium for the second time in three years to mark the 150th anniversary of the FA.
The May 25 showpiece will be London's seventh final following previous games in 1963, 1968, 1971, 1978, 1992 and 2011. No other city has staged the match as many times.
The women's Champions League final is being played at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge stadium on May 23.
Earlier on Friday the two trophies were carried around London on public transport to promote the events.
Champions League ambassador and former England and Chelsea defender Graeme Le Saux said: "Taking the trophies on the tube and bus was a great way to start the day and I'm sure it brightened up the morning for some of the commuters".
Next week Bayern Munich play Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund meet Real Madrid in the first leg of the semifinals.

D.C. Council members are right not to sign up just yet for the cheerleading squad for Mayor Vincent C. Gray's (D) multimillion-dollar plan to build a soccer stadium with D.C. United at Buzzard Point in Southwest. There are many unanswered questions.
What, for example, is the overall vision for the project? Are Gray and his city administrator, Allen Lew, simply fixated on another sports facility? Who would benefit: the owners of the soccer franchise, developers and corporations trading low-value land for more profitable property or D.C. residents?
Like thousands of folks in the District, I like soccer and want to keep D.C. United in the city. Further, Lew's involvement is somewhat reassuring. He has completed major public projects — the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Nationals Park— and renovations of several schools and recreation centers.
Still, there are concerns, particularly about the property swaps critical to amassing the land necessary for the stadium. One agreement would require the city to trade land at Buzzard Point owned by the Akridge real estate and development company for the Frank Reeves Municipal Center at 14th and U streets NW. Gray and Lew have promised that a new government center would be constructed at Good Hope Road and Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue SE in Ward 8's Anacostia neighborhood.
"This is an exciting plan that moves the District forward in two areas about which I'm passionate — economic development, particularly in the east end of the District, and sports," Gray said last week, asserting that the new building would help stimulate economic development along Anacostia's commercial corridor.
In other words, the municipal center would do for Ward 8 what it did for the 14th and U Street corridor. However, Gray's recitation of economic development history, as with that of other officials, overlooks the role played by Metro, Studio Theatre, a few well-targeted tax incentives and the natural power of market forces. Further, there already are a half-dozen city agencies in Anacostia and nearby, including the Department of Housing and Community Development. Perhaps Gray and his team are attempting to placate folks in the "east end" who have been waiting decades for their turn.
One thing is certain: A government building isn't some magic elixir. Without a vision and serious long-term investment, nothing happens. That may be one reason civic and business leaders are not shouting hurray.
"When elected officials want to please their developer-campaign contributors and no one in the city wants what they propose, the city dumps it in the Anacostia Historic District and has the audacity to call it economic development," said Carolyn Johns-Gray, a civic leader and homeowner in Anacostia's historic district, which boasts spectacular vistas of the city, large houses and a lively park on the river.
Johns-Gray complained that, instead of amenities that other middle-class communities claim, officials have fashioned a "Social Woes Row," replete with a women's shelter, methadone drug treatment center and welfare offices. She said she's not against helping the vulnerable, but "enough is enough."
The mayor "imposes things on us, rather than helping us get what we want," said Absalom Jordan, a Ward 8 advisory neighborhood commissioner, adding that an earlier plan to build a soccer stadium at Poplar Point wouldn't "disrupt the community" and was much more desirable. He, too, argued that Gray is more interested in developers. "[They] are the ones who fund campaigns."
Lew has pledged that stadium subcontracts and employment opportunities will flow to residents, including those in Ward 8, as they did with the construction of Nationals baseball sPark. That's all good, but those benefits are temporary. And while there are transportation projects — the streetcar for example — planned for Anacostia, Lew admitted that specifics about development projects like those sought by Johns-Gray aren't available.
"Those are details we have to sort out," continued Lew. "We are going to try to bake those into the deal on Ward 8."
"Whatever is done, it has to be comprehensive and holistic — not just more government facilities," said Stan Jackson, a Ward 8 resident who was a former D.C. deputy mayor for economic development in Anthony A. Williams's administration and is currently director of the Anacostia Economic Development Corporation.
Jackson said that the District had 19 million visitors last year, but that Ward 8 didn't even see one-half of 1 percent of those. The stadium project could serve as a connector, bringing people to Anacostia.
"If we do this the right way, if we have the will," Jackson continued, "we can transform this market."
There's the rub: Does the Gray administration have the will?

MONTVILLE TWP. -The Lakeland Youth Symphony Senior Orchestra students will hold a string concert at the Montville Township Public Library at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 19 in the Pio Costa Auditorium.
The musicians will perform a number of classical pieces that are representative of their repertoire.
The free concert will be conducted by Bob Butts who conducted two full operas this past year with the Little Opera Company of New Jersey and the Boonton Baroque Orchestra.
Besides having his premier reading of the musical "Gesualdo" this August, he spent time this summer at the Conductors' Institute in Toronto studying with an international staff.
The Lakeland Youth Symphony provides an opportunity for string students in grades one through twelve to develop orchestral techniques, musicianship and knowledge of string orchestra literature. Comprised of four groups - Preludes, Junior, Intermediate, and Senior - the Lakeland orchestras allow students of violin, viola, cello and string bass a unique opportunity to perform traditional and contemporary orchestral music.
For further information about the Lakeland Youth Symphony, call 402-6010.
Reservations are required for this performance. Call the Montville Township library at 402-0900, ext. 228 to reserve a seat.

The man who would become its savior first set eyes on what would become Westcave Preserve in the early 1960s as one of the early trespassers. John Covert Watson, from an old Austin family, had long visited nearby Hamilton Pool. But when he was about thirty years old, he heard rumors of another swimming hole nearby. "So I did what I fought against years later—I trespassed on the land," said Watson. Along with two adventuresome friends, Watson...more
A true Westcave icon, John is a member of a rarefied group of unsurpassed naturalists in Texas. He has been the sole preserve director and lead educator since Westcave's beginnings in 1976. John, together with his wife Brenda, raised a wonderful family in the "double wide" mobile home that also served as the visitor's center. He began his work at the Preserve by hauling more than 100 full-size garbage bags of trash out of the canyon. The...more

Beijing has ruled: the two independence activists at the center of a dispute in Hong Kong's legislature will not be allowed to take their seats. More from Financial Times:
The decision on Monday by the National People's Congress, China's rubber-stamp parliament, came after a tense stand-off and occasional clashes in Hong Kong on Sunday night between police and hundreds of protesters. […]
Mr Leung and Ms Yau were elected in September after record voter turnout in Hong Kong, buoyed by opposition to Beijing's increasing interference in the semi-autonomous territory.
But the NPC ruled on Monday that "those who support Hong Kong independence do not qualify to run for and serve as members of the legislature" and should "be held legally responsible" for their actions.
It added that those who fail to take the oath of office "solemnly" should not be allowed to take it again and those who take it but later violate it should also face legal consequences.
As we noted last week, Beijing's decision to intervene in an active Hong Kong court case set a major precedent. The ruling itself will have even greater repercussions. Beijing has now removed elected Hong Kong officials by decree. And rather than ruling narrowly against the two people in question, China has taken a broader position, barring independence activists from seeking office and pressuring the Hong Kong government to comply.
The ruling comes at a time when President Xi is consolidating his power on the mainland and clamping down on internal reform. The news will likely stir up passions in Hong Kong over the notion that Beijing is expanding its control and directly interfering with the rule of law in a supposedly autonomous region.
Hong Kong's young localists have apparently overplayed their hand in calculating that they could openly defy China and still enjoy their new political privileges. The backlash in Hong Kong will be something to watch for: perhaps Beijing has overplayed its hand, too?

Dental Implants in Vista, CA
What Are Dental Implants
Dental Implants were developed some 30 years ago and are now an indispensable feature of modern dentistry. Implant technology has revolutionized how we replace missing teeth making it possible to dispense with dentures and removable "false teeth" by providing a method of securing a new tooth or set of teeth using a small titanium screw that is placed below the gum into the upper or lower jawbones. Titanium has a biocompatible property that allows it to fuse with bone and provide a secure anchor to support new teeth that in all respects feel and function like natural teeth. Missing teeth not only impede the biting and chewing process but can be unsightly and can also make the face appear older because the facial muscles do not receive the support provided by the root structure of the teeth. Dr. Yaron Miller of Vista Dental Care & Specialty Center is your top choice for dental implants in Vista, CA.
There are a number of reasons why you would consider getting dental implants at our Vista office:
You may consider dental implants if you'd like to:
- Replace a missing tooth or teeth without negatively impacting the surrounding teeth
- Dramatically improve and restore your natural smile
- Enhance or restore your facial tissues to give your face a different shape
- Restore any lost ability to chew, speak or digest
- Resolve any joint pain you may have or biting issues caused by shifting teeth
- Create a foundation to support a bridge or denture to make it more comfortable and secure
Replacing teeth with implants is a two-step process. First, the titanium implant is placed in the jawbone. Today, with the state of the art keyhole surgery techniques, patients experience minimal discomfort and the healing time has significantly reduced. Once the bone has grown around and bonded with the implant, it can support a crown, bridge, or over-denture. Depending on the patient's needs, the second step involves the fitting of the required prosthesis. Several fittings may be required to complete the process and can take a few weeks to complete. Dental implants offer a permanent solution to the loss of teeth and can last a lifetime. Implants are available to virtually all healthy people including the elderly. One limitation is that patients must have sufficient amounts of bone to hold and support the implant but even where there is insufficient bone, it is often possible to graft additional bone where required.
How much do they cost?
The fee for tooth replacement depends on the number of teeth being replaced and the number of dental implants required. In some cases, there can be additional procedures that may be required prior to the placement of your dental implants to ensure that they last for the longest possible duration and remain in excellent health. Please call the Vista Dental Care and Specialty Center to schedule a consultation with Dr. Miller or one of our other certified dental implants San Diego surgeons.
Who is a Candidate for dental implants?
Anyone who is missing one or more teeth due to injury, disease or tooth decay may be a candidate for dental implants. The amount of available bone is a key factor in determining candidacy for implantology. Please give us a call to consult with one of our top dental implants Vista surgeons.
Is old age a problem?
Health is more of a determining factor than age. If you're healthy enough to have a tooth extracted then you are a great candidate for receiving one or more dental implants to replace your teeth. Certain chronic diseases may contraindicate dental implant treatment. Your Vista dental implant surgeon will determine if you are a candidate for dental implants after a careful evaluation of your dental and health history.
What are the advantages of dental implants over dentures or a dental bridge?
Improved appearance: When you lose the entire tooth – crown and root – shrinkage of the jawbone may cause your face to look older. Dental implants can halt this process, while dentures would not.
Preserve natural teeth: Dental bridges cause teeth adjacent to missing teeth to be ground down to be used as anchors for a dental bridge. Dental implants could eliminate the need to modify healthy teeth.
Permanent solution: Implants are stable and comfortable without the need for adjustments.
If you have anymore questions or concerns about dental implants, we invite you to contact Vista Dental Care and Specialty Center at (760) 630-5000.

jbw45 Review
I order 6 of these chairs for my dinning room bassed on the reviews that I have read. The colors are more orange/red so he picture is pretty accurate. First off the chairs are comfortable. That was my main requirement. the colors work perfectly for me and for the price you can not go wrong. I know some reviews mention thing like the Stripes do not line up and the quality is not there. Yes these are inexpensive chairs and yes the quality could be better. So if thes is something you will use everday i would say they are disposable charis. But if you are like me and they are only used 8 to 10 times a year....they are perfect. Everyone who have seen them, loves them......You will only notice the lack of Quality when you put them together, but otherwise they are comfortable an look great. I definatly have seen more expensive chais of this quality that were not nearly as comfortable at Raymor & Flanigan, Peir 1 and Ashley. So if these cahirs are not for Daily use I would say they are great Value for the Money.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? pretty accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good for the price
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? pretty accurate

Intellectual property(IP) is a term that is primarily used to refer to a combination of copyrights, patents and trademarks covering a certain work. It could also be used to refer to these three fields in general.
The primary idea of using the term "intellectual property" lies in comparing it to the "physical property" people actually own. Some use this to imply that IP should be protected in the same way as physical property (that is, eternally). In practice most or all copyright laws nowadays accept that copyrights expire a long time after the author's death.

There are a number of ways to connect with other businesses. As business owners recognise that networking is almost a necessity for the success of any business, especially those that wish to grow, owners are looking into expanding their referral network as a way to set up the infrastructure of their expansion. It may take some work, but once it is set up it can be used as a business directory giving the businesses that are part of it several advantages over other advantages.
Setting Up A Directory
A referral network can come in a variety of different forms, depending on what kind of technology is used, ranging from social meetings to online forums. The common feature is that they allow business people to meet where they can discuss common issues and connect. The organizers will sometimes gather contact information and make it available to those at the meeting. Those business people can then use this information later to find each other for a number of advantages ranging from finding a service or product, mentoring employees, or just solving problems.
Using a Directory To Find Something
An example of this is when the company needs to find an item or service that is uncommon or hard to find. Most businesses can find common items or services with no problems. When it comes to finding those harder to find items, however, sometimes the person searching has no idea where to even begin. By using their referral networks businesses can make a few calls or texts and at least get a lead on the item within a few minutes. By asking a few simple questions of the right people it can be easy to find almost anything. A carefully maintained directory can save a lot of time in this fashion.
Another example is the mentoring of employees. Sometimes a business will find that they have an employee with potential that they wish to exploit but are unable to do so properly themselves. As such they will a directory to find a good match among other business leaders hoping that the employee will find someone that can help guide that employee. All three gain from this kind of relationship The employee gains valuable insight, the mentor gains an anchor point when he contacts the business in question, and the business itself gains a better employee.
Other uses
Referral networks are a means of communicating with other business owners. By using them as a business directory a business owner can find the answer to almost any question that comes up. Other business owners are usually willing to answer most basic questions, but may charge for the service if the question get complicated or seems as if they are doing work without getting paid this actually results in more business for those willing to answer simple questions and show that they know what they are talking about. By using referral networks to create a business directory, and maintaining it, a business can easily succeed and expand over time.
