Artur Bodanzky (also written as Artur Bodzansky) (December 16, 1877 in Vienna – 23 November 1939 in New York) was a Jewish conductor particularly associated with the operas of Wagner.
The son of Jewish merchants, Bodanzky studied the violin and composition with Alexander Zemlinsky [1] Bodanzky then became conducting assistant to Gustav Mahler in Vienna, later going on to jobs in Berlin, the Neues Deutsches Theater in Prague (August 1907)[2], where he was briefly a colleague of Otto Klemperer[3] and Mannheim. In 1915 he emigrated to the United States to work for the Metropolitan Opera, being replaced at Mannheim by Wilhelm Furtwängler. He was head of German repertory at the Met, being accepted by Toscanini on the recommendation of Ferruccio Busoni.[4] In 1921 he was engaged by the New York Philharmonic as a guest conductor.[5] In 1928, Bodanzky announced his resignation from the Met and was replaced by Joseph Rosenstock. However, Rosenstock received such criticism in the press that he himself resigned almost immediately on medical advice, and Bodanzky was rehired, and remained at the Met until his death. He was approached by Thomas Beecham to conduct at Covent Garden, London in 1936, but his requested fee of £250 for each performance was considered too high.[6]
Conducting style
When he was appointed to his position at Mannheim Bodanzky was praised as a "mature and diligent" conductor" with "only one deficiency: a certain heavy-handedness, a predilection for ritardando".[7]. However, later in his career at the Met Bodanzky became "notorious for his rapid tempi, particularly in Wagner".[7] Bodanzky reputedly introduced more cuts in operas he prepared than many other contemporary conductors, and it was sometimes suggested that he was eager to finish the opera in time to play cards. H. L. Mencken criticized his abilities as a symphonic conductor, saying that "he gave an impression of being unfamiliar with what he was there to direct".[8]

For the 1 million Americans with type 1 diabetes, cell transplants can seem miraculous. A 2004 National Institutes of Health report concluded that 60 percent of those who had islet cell transplants--the cells produce insulin--didn't need painful daily insulin shots a year later. Doctors hope the risk of type 1 complications (blindness, kidney failure, even amputation) will plummet.
You may unsubscribe at any time.
But they're not for everyone, yet. "Islet transplants are still very experimental," says Camillo Ricordi, scientific director of the Diabetes Research Institute at the University of Miami. Here's what you need to know.
Islet transplants are performed as research only. You have to meet certain criteria to be accepted.
Transplant recipients need to take potent immune-suppressing drugs for life. These drugs boost the risk of infection, high blood pressure, cancer, and other problems. Donor cells come from organ donors, so there are only enough to perform a few thousand transplants each year. Transplants start losing function after 1 year. And researchers are still puzzling out the reasons.Tags: Diabetes TreatmentCopyright © 2017 Rodale Inc.

Note To Readers: This is the second of an ongoing series focusing on how small, mid-size and large operators can grow their businesses. The series will examine making the jump from small- to mid-size fleet operations, from mid-size to large, and large to top-tier.
The "hell zone" is how Jeff Rose sums up the move from a small to mid-size company. Rose, founder of Attitude New York in 1986, has systematically grown his operation to 40 vehicles today, and can testify to the growing pains from launching a bare-bones company at his kitchen table to a well-regarded Manhattan luxury transportation provider.
"I call it the hell zone because if you have one to five vehicles and make the move to the 10 to 15 range and beyond, that multiplies your obligations because you may not have the revenue to hire staff to handle the growth to run the operation — and the problems," Rose says.
Matt Assolin, vice president of Houston-based Nikko's Chauffeured Services, adds, "When you're small, you analyze dollars. When you get up to the 20-30 range you analyze pennies. I think I made more money when I had 10 cars," he muses.
Running an international operation, including a new Austin office, Assolin says the company posted a 40% jump in revenue in 2014 compared to 2013. But his cautionary words about growing to the mid-level range stem from his degree in finance and experience growing the company.
Growing Pains
Rose and Assolin know first-hand the trials and tribulations of scaling from small to mid-size, but they differ a bit on their approach to managing a company on the rise. As in any business or industry, there is not one universal business plan or operator blueprint that will work for a unique operation or market. But both offer strategies and lessons-learned that worked for them that yield general insights and pearls for success.
For example, Rose doesn't believe in devising long-term business plans because you often have to "zig and zag" depending on unexpected business and market factors — and opportunities. Assolin, however, says, "You have to figure out what kind of company you want to be and then stick with that and have a clear picture about your money in order to grow."
Rose says, "My best friend's Italian grandmother says, 'Man plans, God laughs.' A lot of times people have a plan and when conditions change they try to stick to the plan. I know that is counter to conventional wisdom, but I believe more in preparation that sets you up to be in a position to play the cards that you are dealt. If things change for whatever reason, sticking to a business plan can set up false expectations rather than being flexible to zig and zag — not because the plan is faulty — but life is fickle," Rose says.
Both agree that growing from a one-owner, jack-of-all-trades, operation, to mid-size is the hardest hurdle because it requires hiring staff for the first time, coupled with ensuring cash flow to pay for all of the additional costs. "I don't think there is much difference in growing from, say, 20 cars to 30. By then, you have staff on board and you know your fixed costs. You've passed that initial ramping up milestone," Rose explains. "So adding 10 more cars may not be as difficult to get to the next tier."
Rose recalls one lesson he learned from growing his company is there are certain "tipping points" along the growth curve. "Different thresholds come up at different times that you have to deal with, such as when do you hire that second dispatcher, or an overnight guy? Or now you need a bigger garage. Say you have 10 cars and have a 20-car garage, then 20 is your tipping point because that's your threshold. But if you have a 25-car garage and you're going from 20 to 25 vehicles, that's not a big deal."
The 20-to-50 vehicles range resembles a financial plateau since net profit can stagnate while a company adds vehicles and staff, Assolin says. "The dynamics change at certain levels because you are now adding car washers, office staff, maintenance people, benefits, and you may not see the return on that investment for a while but you now have everything in place to go to the next level."
He stresses that growing your business hinges on what kind of operation you are running. "Are you a high-end professional company with well-trained staff and chauffeurs and the best vehicles? Or are you a second-tier company that does the bare minimum? That will affect when you see more profit."
Growth and profits depend on your market, Assolin says. "Are you doing demanding airport transfers, road shows, or runs that require more staff and overhead? Or are you doing low-maintenance hourly work? That will affect your staffing, expenses — bottom line."
On The Money
For money management, Assolin advises looking closely at profits in detail. "A lot of companies I admire will turn away business if they're not making a least 30% profit. They really focus on what they are making per client. They might have 35 cars but 95 headaches because you have more cars, drivers and maintenance issues. Unit costs are important. What are you making per hour per vehicle? Is buying that additional sedan cost effective? Or should I farm out the business?
He cautions growing operators that if they farm out some business they have to make sure the vendors have the same quality vehicles that you do otherwise, that's a problem."
Assolin advises operators to study their markets when looking at growth and costs. "For example, some markets run 24 hours, like New York and Los Angeles with flights coming and going at all hours. My last flight might be at 1 a.m., so you have to weigh the market and hours of operation. My last fight is around 1 a.m., so my use of the fleet is 15 hours a day.
Maybe in Milwaukee it's only 10 hours a day. You have to look at the time of vehicle usage because that obviously affects your vehicle wear and tear, maintenance, and replacement costs."
Determining your chauffeur labor-business model also should be a major factor in business growth, he says. "You have to decide if you want chauffeurs as employees or independent operators. The IO model doesn't cost you much; maybe some inspection and regulatory fees. You can invest the money in other things besides fleet. But, at what cost? Are you sacrificing quality of service because IOs are not employees and don't have your high standards? Again, you have to decide if you want to be a first or second-tier company."
Growth Spurts
Rose's business philosophy has been to grow slow and steady. "We have always been a tortoise rather than a hare. I think it's worse to grow too fast than too slow. Here's an example: I had the opportunity early on when I had three cars to take on a big account, but I turned it down because I knew I was not ready to handle it. I realized if I took the contract and performed poorly, I'd never get another chance."
Rose notes that because contracts are renewed every two years or so, there is opportunity when you are ready to take on larger accounts. Being prepared to take on new accounts is important. However, he cautions eager operators not to get into a situation where they rely on just one or two big accounts that total 40% to 50% of your business.
"That's dangerous because if you ramp up to handle one or two new big accounts and they go away or downsize you, that's big trouble," he says. "My revenue is made up of all 5% to 6% accounts, so we are not highly concentrated on a few big accounts, so there is lower financial risk if an account leaves."
But there are times when you have to invest although you may not see the return on investment for two years, Assolin cautions. "For example, we just added a 40-passenger Grech bus — the largest purchase in the history of the company. It doesn't make a profit yet, but we know it eventually will. It's the same when we opened an office in Austin (ranked one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S.) Although it put a strain on our finances, it's now paying off. My point is that you can't always expect an overnight ROI when you are trying to grow your business."
People Are Your Greatest Asset
Hire smart: When staffing your growing operation, New York operator Jeff Rose gets right to the point. "Be careful of hiring people like you. Don't be afraid to hire people smarter than you who will challenge you because they have strengths that you don't have. Keep your ego out of it. I have people who are better than me at certain things and hae strengths I don't have. I love that."
Bank on trust: "If I had a choice between hiring a person that ranked 10 on the skills scale and another who ranked [lower] but I knew he was more trustworthy, I'll take trustworthy every time. No matter how many non-compete and confidentiality agreements you sign, the lesson learned is to be careful whom you trust because people are going to burn you at some point. Just make wiser choices when you hire. The three things we look for in hiring are competence, reliability and character. We don't worry too much about experience. My current chief of staff never worked in the industry when he was hired but we saw his skill set and he was trustworthy and he moved up the ranks," Rose says.
Dollars sense: Matt Assolin advises small operators moving from small to mid-size to hire a financial person. "It's important to have a clear picture about your money because if you don't — it just goes out the window. Owners of small operations have an emotional tie to the business and that can create a clouded picture. You need someone — a part-time financial advisor or bookkeeper — who is not part of the operation who can step back and examine your numbers and present you with a clear financial picture and statement. And it shouldn't be from the 40,000-foot view, but maybe the 10,000-foot view to see what you are spending too much on and maybe cut back. It just gives you an objective view of your money without your emotional ties to the business."
For example, "You may have an account that you worked very hard to get where you provide 20 rides a day. But your financial person looks at the account numbers and says you are losing $5 per ride. So when you multiply $5 x 20 per day, per week, that loss adds up pretty quickly. The owner is very attached to the account but his emotional cloud doesn't give him a clear financial picture. The financial person does."
Respect: Rose also offers this gem: "It's very important for staff to respect the prerogatives of ownership because I'm the only one who can't quit."

Deleting of Changing "next" and "previous" posts
Hello, I would like to either delete the links at the bottom of posts to the next and previous posts.
Another possibility would be if I could have a differentiation between two different types of posts. On our website, we have two different types of posts: news and membership profiles. If I could change it so that the next and previous links in news posts only go to other new posts (and the same with member posts) that would be good.
My site is irfalliance.org

Weiss Gear Keeps In Step With Final Stage MasteringConvenient path for upgrades is a hallmark of Weiss Engineering gear (February 20, 2006)
The philosophy of Final Stage Mastering has always been about staying one step ahead. For chief mastering engineer Randy LeRoy, that meant matching his sharp ears and instincts to digital gear from early on, starting with the EQ1 from Weiss Engineering. Fifteen years after opening for business, Final Stage has grown into one of the busiest mastering houses in Nashville, and their Weiss gear has kept the pace.
"Some of my first pieces of digital processing gear were Weiss Engineering systems," says Randy LeRoy, whose long discography using Weiss gear includes recent projects for Pam Tillis, and Relient K, plus remastering for the Nitty Gritty Dirt band and Merle Haggard. "The Weiss boxes seemed to really come out and give you the quality and smoothness of digital processing that was never there before. They didn't change the tone and imaging of the mix, instead, all you heard was the slight EQ subtleties you were adding."
A convenient path for upgrades is a hallmark of Weiss Engineering gear. With the number of possible sampling rate/bit depth format possibilities expanding steadily over the last decade, LeRoy has been excited to see that his Weiss Engineering units have easily accommodated them. "As Final Stage started supporting higher sample rates, Weiss Engineering founder and president, Daniel Weiss, kept adding those capabilities too," LeRoy notes. "When I first purchased Weiss' EQ1 7-band EQ and DS1 compressor, they were both 44.1/48kHz units. Two years later, they upgraded them to the MK2 version, which was able to do 96kHz/24-bit. Soon after that, a Linear Phase model upgrade was available which allowed me to use the EQ1 in either MK2 or Linear Phase modes. I also took advantage of the DYN upgrade, which added dynamic control in the frequency domain.
"In each case, making the upgrade was just a question of switching out a board or processor chips. You don't have to be a hard-core tech to do it yourself. As these updates continued, I realized that Weiss Engineering was truly supporting these units, and not forcing me to buy a new a piece of hardware every time I wanted to add a special flavor to them. It was a big plus knowing that the manufacturer was standing behind my gear."
In addition to his EQ1MK2 DYN-LP and DS1MK2, LeRoy has continued to advance his Weiss Engineering ADC1 and DAC1 converters with Weiss' convenient Hydra double sampling standard changer interface. "I love the fullness and richness of the Weiss Engineering a/d and d/a converters. It's a very natural, smooth-sounding conversion and what comes in comes out," says LeRoy. "They're a great plus for mastering, whether it's restoration work or coming in from my analog EQs.
"Then some of the higher sample rates came about, and we had the AES/EBU dual wire/single wire issues cropping up between some of my pieces of digital gear. The Hydra box helped add much more flexibility into my system. It's a user-friendly, simple interface to do the dual-to-single-wire conversion that was necessary to connect many different kinds of digital gear. It's a good example of how realistic the company is about today's mastering environment. They listen to their end users about what they need, have great ideas, and they're great at implementing them."
Part of the Gambit series of professional digital audio equipment, the Weiss Engineering EQ1-MK2 incorporates seven identical parametric bands, covering the entire audio frequency range. High-level audio and ergonomic features include touch-sensitive knobs, a large backlit LCD display, a 128 snapshot bank and available POW-R dithering. The Weiss Engineering DS1 compressor/limiter/de-esser stands as a hallmark of audio quality in the digital realm, with powerful features such as soft knee, oversampling sidechain, linear-phase band splitter, and total bit-transparency. Both the DAC1 d/a converter and ADC2 a/d converter (successor to the ADC1) utilize Weiss Engineering's correlation technique, using two converters per channel, for outstanding sound quality.
For Final Stage, the consistent upgrades to Weiss Engineering systems are a key component in keeping ahead, and delivering top results for his choosy clientele in the process.

Super light. Great battery life. Rugged.
Low memory. Dim screen.
Bottom Line
Though its light weight, excellent battery life, and rugged case make the Panasonic Toughbook Y2 appealing for road warriors, the low performance and the just-okay features make it tough to justify the price.
Multimedia Tests
PC Magazine uses the same tests and the same scale when rating the multimediaMusic, Photos, Video, Gamingon desktops and notebooks. We do this so it is easy to compare consumer notebooks against consumer desktops in addition to comparisons within each category. As a guide: the best desktops will score above a 90 on a given subject, and the best notebooks will score above a 70. The reason for this is even the most advanced notebook will have to give up some capabilities, when compared to a desktop, for portability: notably size and weight compromises that affect hard drive space and screen size, as well as power compromises that affect CPU and graphics performance.

Sometimes it's love at first sight and sometimes it takes a little longer. A bit of searching, a few wrong steps and then finally you find the One. "Your dream wedding dress."
The frock you've imagined all your life. It makes you look good, feel good and its fine with your budget.
The dress of your dreams is out there – it's just a matter of finding it. Just take a look, if it's the best time to buy wedding dress or there is time left in your wedding.
And to start with you need an open mind (a bit like going on a blind date in fact).
First off forget about fashion
If you want to love your wedding photographs in 20 years' time still, then forget about fashion. You're looking for something timeless, something that won't date in the pictures.
I'm thinking Royalty actually. Look at Royal wedding dresses, and many could still be worn today. Like Princess Grace, Princess Margaret's and more recently Kate Middleton's.
Be open minded when wedding dress shopping
You may have a very fixed idea of what you're looking for – but advice from top wedding planners and designers says that you should always go shopping for The Dress and be open to suggestions.
The assistant in the bridal boutique will know just by looking at your figure, your coloring, your style (and maybe your age) what is going to flatter you best so listen up. Try on the frocks that are suggested to you, and you could be pleasantly surprised.
You may have always thought you'd wear a slinky strapless number – but fall in love with a draped goddess style gown. What if you're
Listen – wedding dress shopping isn't something you do every day – so ENJOY it!
Don't bring along a crowd
"Can I come?" you may be asked by your sisters, friends, cousins, aunties… By all means bring one or two trusted people with you when you try on dresses but don't bring a huddle. You'll get different opinions, and it will just add to the stress factor. Your mom and best friend are just fine.
Take a snap
You may or may not be allowed to take a picture of a wedding dress you love, but if you then go ahead. You may want to consider the choices you have later and remind yourself of what you looked like trying them on before taking the plunge and getting the credit card out.
The when's and the where's
If you're marrying on a sultry summer day in the warm Tuscan sunshine, then you don't want a dress made from a heavy fabric like velvet or brocade. And the same goes if you're marrying in winter. Be a snow princess and keep out the cold in rich materials. If you're traveling abroad for your wedding to a beach in Portugal or Greece, then a big-skirted gown with layers of tulle won't really work. Look for designers who specialize in creating destination wedding gowns which pack easily, travel light and look beautiful on arrival. Frocks like this will also be made of fabrics that 'breathe' in the heat of the day so you don't get hot and bothered but feel comfortable.
Have fun on Pinterest
I think all brides should have a Pinterest board of wedding gowns so they can browse through and see what appeals. Pinterest is a fabulous place to put your wedding ideas together, and it's free!
Keep to your budget
Obviously, you should choose a bridal gown that you love and which makes you look and feel wonderful. But don't go over budget. You don't want to have to scrimp on other areas of your wedding to pay for the dress – there are plenty of gowns out there in all price ranges.
Check out this video to get tips to shop everything in your budget:
Avoid the Internet
Oh, it's so tempting to browse online and find your dream dress for a fraction of the price. But it's not advisable. You could end up with a dress in a cheap and shoddy fabric, something that's stained or not at all as it was described. However, there are some reputable online wedding dress shops like Kitty, Dulcie and Dessy (who make some fabulous destination wedding dresses).
Pay using a credit card
If your perfect wedding dress costs more than £100, pay for it with a credit card. Because if something goes wrong (like the shop goes out of business, the dress is faulty or disappears in the post) you can claim against the credit card company.
Do you want to love your dress forever? Then shop with an open mind, keep to your budget, listen to the bridal boutique assistant and take the advice given and don't go for anything super 'fashionable.'

Cutting Out Letters From Fondant - Specific Font!
Decorating By kimmycat Updated 9 Jun 2011 , 6:09am by shens00k
Hello everyone,
I'm trying to make a tool box for my best friend's mechanic husband. I'm good with all parts EXCEPT getting that stupid logo right:
This will be the make or break of the cake and I was wondering what the best way to recreate this would be? Printing and cutting out around it?
Any tips would be much appreciated!!!
I would buy a brand new sharp X-acto blade, print the logo out on the paper just the size you need it to be, rolled your gumpaste pretty thin, let it dry just for few minutes, till its not tacky, place your paper template on top of gumpaste and cut every single letter very carefully and neat. Let it dry little bit more till its not stretches when you handle it, and you got yourself an edible art!!!!
You can cut the letters out of gumpaste. Print out the letters and glue to a piecs of card stock, card board or foam core for strength. The other two options is to revers print and do a chocolate transfer ot a buttercream frozen transfer. I would opt for the chocolate transfer. Outline the letters with tip 2 or 3 and let harden. The fill in with same tip. Make sure your chocolate flows but is not hot or too warm as it will melt your outline. HTH
You could also do them in royal icing. Outline with full strength, "flood" the letters with thinned out royal. So easy.
Make an extra set in case a letter break... you'll have a back up.
Thank you all VERY much for your suggestions! Now I have some great options at my disposal. I will have a picture up in a few days when it's all done
Hi kimmycat,
I would highly recommend sugar sheets..... Michaels just got this new product from Wilton. They make carving out letters so much easier.
I've recently started using a new technique I saw on Amazing Wedding Cakes. Screen Printing. And it's really simple, but a little time consuming. I bought some transparencies from Staples, the kind you use with an overhead projector. For best results, I print my font on regular paper, then tape the transpanrency on top and trace font with a permanent marker. Then just cut of ur letters. Put the transparency on ur cake and apply a light layer of royal icing. Use a stiff flat spatula or piece of heavy cardstock and drag across ur transparency to smooth and even out ur icing. Then just gently remover your home made stencil and there you go I really like this technique for making company-specific logos because it gives you a sleeker look. HTH!

I am doing a few dozen cupcakes for a Tuesday night baby shower. Half chocolate, half white, all with a "buttercream" (not a cooked BC, just a butter + Sugar + Vanilla recipe)
Because of my schedule I will have to make all of the cupcakes on Sunday, and ice on Monday night (or at the crack of dawn Tues morning). A friend will be picking them up Tuesday afternoon (I'll be at work, he's picking them up at our house) for the Tuesday night party.
Should I keep the unfrosted cupcakes in an airtight container Sun night, then just keep the frosted ones in a bakery box from decorating until pickup? I don't want them to dry out in that 12-18 hours, but I can't really think of another option.
Should I refrigerate?
Thank you!
You definitely want to keep the unfrosted cupcakes in a tupperware container.
Can you fill the cupcakes with buttercream? That would help a little bit.
I've always just left my unfrosted ones out with some plastic covering them and then boxed my frosted ones and left them out too...never have had a problem with drying out

In her interview she gave three very powerful leadership tips:
- Have clarity of thought: Cheema argued that leaders need to have clarity of thought and the ability to communicate their thinking well. I am learning more about this. One of the mistakes I've made in the past is to assume that clarity will happen as if by accident; it doesn't. I know I need to spend time working out what I think and how - when needed - I can explain it.
- Honour your people: It's really easy as people to take credit when things go well blame others when things go badly. Good leadership, Cheema argued, does the opposite - give people credit when things go well and take the blame when things go badly. I sometimes watch X Factor - the judges I warm to the most in any series are the ones who take responsibility when one of their act's performance doesn't go well but are the first to praise when they go well. Why do this? It brings the best out of people. As I wrote about last week, like us all, encouragement has unlocked my potential and makes me more corageous.
- Have courage: Martin Luther King Jr said "we must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear." He is right, without courage, our leadership is paralysed. Cheema reflected on the qualities of a courageous leader; fearlessness, sacrifcie and doing difficult tasks.

Markets distill all of the various opinions of traders and investors into one output…PRICE. This discovery process is a critical function derived from the buying and selling action in this open auction.
Warren Buffet famously said that markets are " voting machines in the short term and weighing machines in the long term". Meaning they eventually weigh the importance of fundamentals but it may take time to sort it out…
This now called "Crowd Sourcing" technique has usually been right in past decades of predicting events and outcomes prior to the news. Expectations get priced in with little surprise most times.
2016 saw TWO MAJOR times the markets had it COMPLETELY WRONG, in additions the Chicago Cubs won the world series showing anything is possible…
The BREXIT and US Presidential vote outcomes were incorrectly analyzed by our buy/sell barometers shaking up financial markets around the world. After the immediate volatile reaction that rocked stocks, currencies, and metals…markets bounced back in short order after clear minds minimized the consequences.
Binary options with known maximum value of $100 and minimum value of $0 no matter the event outcome ABSOLUTELY limited risk vehicles to participate in unpredicted possibilities.
ANOTHER epic vote is happening this weekend with Italy effectively endorsing the current fiscal planners or not. THIS TIME a NO vote is predicted so the shock surprise may be if that sentiment turns to optimism Thursday or Friday.
In reality, it is a symbolic rebuke of the current economic climate NOT a referendum to leave the EURO. The message would be sent but few Italians would be fond of going back to the Lira depreciation days of old…
A binary option play in the EURO or UK's FTSE stock index to end the week can position for a sentiment shift IF the market has it wrong so far.
The potential reversal of opinion before the actual vote could be opportunity.

Dyslexic student gets court nod to sit in board exams
The Calcutta High Court on Wednesday came to the rescue of a dyslexic student by allowing her to sit in her class XII board examinations next week.
Kolkata: The Calcutta High Court on Wednesday came
to the rescue of a dyslexic student by allowing her to sit in
her class XII board examinations next week.
Payal Sarkar of Central School in Fort William here was
not permitted to appear in the examinations due to low
attendance, following which she moved the court which sought
an explanation from the school authorities on the issue.
In his order, Justice B Somadder allowed Payal to sit
for the board exam commencing on March 10.
CBSE`s lawyer US Menon submitted before the court that
it had, considering the special case, already sent the admit
card to the school. At this, the court directed the principal,
who was present in court, to deliver the admit card to Payal.
Her counsels Subrata Mukhopadhyay and Kaushik Chanda
told the court that Payal has difficulty in recognising
alphabets and characters and has to be treated for long terms
at stages and as such her attendance percentage was low.
According to the school authorities, she has 56 percent attendance, while the board recorded it to be 59 percent
- one short of its stipulated 60 percent for students with
specific illnesses.
Though dyslexia did not fall within the ambit of
specified illnesses like cancer and TB, the court directed
that this be considered a special case due to Payal`s efforts
to continue her studies despite her illness.
The court also suggested the CBSE to consider
appointing teachers for differently-abled children in all its
schools and have a proper mechanism to identify them. Justice
Somadder observed that schools have a duty to identify such
special children and make provisions for imparting proper
education to them.

At 20 weeks, people have started hammering us with the question, "Is it a boy or a girl?" every so often because around this time of the pregnancy, we should've already known the gender from the fetal anomaly scan. I hate to break the news though that hubby and I have decided not to disclose the baby's gender this time. And for reasons we hope our families and friends would understand.
Before we conceived our firstborn, we prayed so hard for a baby after having gone through miscarriage. Dade came as an answered prayer, and we found out we were pregnant with him at the most unexpected time. We were in Manila for our annual vacation, and we had family members around us who were the first to hear of our good news. What perfect timing!
After 2 years since Dade's birth, we planned on having a second baby (and was crossing our fingers for a girl!). We even asked for prayers through our friend Shelly who went to the Holy Land for pilgrimage. Just a couple of months after, we found out we were infanticipating again, and the news also came at the right time -- just a day after my maternal grandmother passed away. It was a little piece of good news that I brought home with me when I flew home for her funeral. Lexie is also an answered prayer, and a dream come true for us as we really wanted a girl.
Now with my current pregnancy, everything was completely unforeseen. Because of all the stress I had at work and with our Euro Trip, I ovulated late and didn't realize I was fertile when we did the deed. We traveled for our much-awaited Europe Trip this summer, and found out towards the last leg of our tour that we have a little hitchhiker onboard. I already had a feeling that we may be pregnant but was in denial for days until I decided to take the home pregnancy test kit to get it over and done with. Funny how I was telling Ryan when we got the PTK in Vienna that it better be worth its price as I had to cough up EUR 12 for the pack! I actually meant that it should be accurate and wasn't exactly hoping for a positive sign.
When the PTK confirmed my suspicion, my initial reaction was shock. I showed the test result to Ryan who also had the same reaction, and none of us had the same jolly expression on our faces when we found out about Dade's and Lexie's conception. Looking back, it makes me feel guilty that our little one wasn't welcomed warmly like its siblings. We were not fair as parents, and it sucks to remember that point in this pregnancy. Sorry baby!
In addition to the not-so-happy reaction of ours, I also had a very challenging first trimester with all the symptoms and hormonal changes that I've gone through. I had horrible all-day sickness that lasted for weeks followed by severe tooth and gum aches. I also contracted conjunctivitis towards the tail end of my first trimester, which was really a pain. My boss teased me that I was falling apart as I couldn't complete an entire week in the office!
Last October, we had a serious health scare with the baby, and it made us reflect on our priorities as a family (more on this in a separate post). After going through that hurdle, it made me realize how much I am taking this pregnancy for granted and how ungrateful I was of this beautiful gift to our family. God blessed us with a wonderful year, and the least I could do is be more accepting of His shower of love.
I thought of ways to make it up to our unborn baby until it dawned on me that keeping the gender of the baby until the delivery date will keep us and the people around us excited about its arrival. Ryan welcomed this idea, too, which is great! You see, our loved ones and friends are all excited to know the baby's gender, and holding off such information makes them extra giddy. Everyone is now looking forward to the d-day! I cannot wait to video tape their reaction when they come see us at the hospital :)
We already have a boy and a girl so whatever this baby's gender is does not really matter as long as it's healthy and normal. What we want is another baby to love, to play with, to cuddle, and to smell (ooohh, angel's breath again!) It doesn't matter if it's a he or a she. After all, my husband said that God does not give anything that isn't perfect :)

ATLANTA TERMINAL COMPANY and Southern Railway Company, Appellants,
SYSTEM FEDERATION NO. 21, RAILWAY EMPLOYES' DEPARTMENT, AFL-CIO, Appellee.
No. 25354.
United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit.
June 25, 1968.
Edgar A. Neely, Jr., Atlanta, Ga., Charles J. Bloch, Macon, Ga., James I. Hardy, Washington, D. C., Herman Heyman, Atlanta, Ga., for appellants.

This appeal questions the amount of the fees awarded counsel for plaintiffs in three actions to enforce awards of the Railway Adjustment Board. The statute, 45 U.S.C.A. § 153, subd. 1(p), directs that the court allow a reasonable attorney's fee when a plaintiff prevails in such cases. We are satisfied that the District Court did not abuse its discretion in the awards made here.

The B.P.F. also known as the Free Forces, were the members of Britain's military which actively supported the deposed government of Stanley Baldwin. The B.P.F. fought during the British Civil War against the Fascist Council of Britain, led by Oswalt Mosley and his government and the troops loyal to Mosley.
The BPF was formed on the 1st of May 1935 by British General Bernard "Monty" Montgomery and included nearly 70,000 regular army troops, as well as most of the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force based north of Cumbia and the Lake District. Although the first combat of the civil war occurred on 28th of April when a brigade of troops rebelled against the fascist government during the Battle of Southampton, the BPF itself was not officially formed until 1 week later.

The ideas and legacy of Paul A. Volcker loom as large in contemporary economic debates as his 6'7" frame. From the merits of the most recent Federal Reserve actions to boost the economy to how to regulate Wall Street, many of the challenges of today have echoes of those that the former Fed chief grappled with in a five-decade career. William L. Silber has written a rich and detailed new biography of a man who has left as deep an imprint on the world economy as anyone of his generation. Silber, a professor at New York University and author of a bestselling textbook on money and banking, discussed the lessons for the present from his new book, "Volcker: The Triumph of Persistence."
Washington Post: What do you see as the lessons that Ben Bernanke and the current Federal Reserve should be taking from Volcker's experience in the 70s and 80s?
William L. Silber: I'm going to preface what I say with this: Bernanke gets an A for what he did in 2008. He did exactly what a central banker, knowing the history of the Great Depression, should have done when confronted with the potential for panic. Open up the floodgates and lend. But now he should worry about the fallout from remaining too easy for too long, which Volcker maintains is the reason we lost the battle against inflation before.
The 1970s delivered two important messages. First, we can't get a permanent reduction in unemployment by inflating. It doesn't work. And second, we've got to worry about inflation even with unemployed resources. Waiting until we see a clear and present danger is too late. Will there be a recovery in economic activity in the United States? Yes. Is this recovery taking longer than almost everyone thought it would? Probably. But the leveraging process that got us into trouble took years. We can't expect the de-leveraging to happen overnight. And letting monetary policy ease the de-leveraging by inflating will only get us into more trouble.
Volcker articulated a view on the fundamental evil of inflation that I had never thought of until I wrote this book – and I had been analyzing inflation for a long time before that. He believes that the main problem with inflation is that it undermines trust in government. We, as citizens, give the government the right to print money and we expect the government not to abuse that right by inflating. When the government inflates it breaks its pledge and undermines our trust. Right now we need trust in government more than anything else.
WP: But inflation hasn't been much of a problem the last four years. Shouldn't be the Fed be focused on addressing the major economic problem of today, unemployment, just as Volcker addressed the major problem of his day, inflation?
WLS: The big difference today versus the problem Volcker confronted in 1979 is that inflationary expectations were already out of hand back then. Today they are still under control, but no one knows how fragile they are. More importantly, it will be difficult for Ben Bernanke, or whoever follows him, to maintain low expectations of inflation by raising real interest rates – the way Volcker did — when that's needed. We have had five years of unemployment and the American public may not tolerate a central bank that acts preemptively, as it must, to prevent inflation. The Fed is independent but it cannot do whatever it wants. Moreover, the Fed does not know how high rates need to go to maintain control. So it is not clear that the Fed will be willing and/or able to do what is necessary to control inflation. Bernanke needs to replace the lessons of the Great Depression, which helped until now, with the teachings of the 1970s and 1980s, which are needed going forward.
WP: So what can Washington do to address the weak recovery?
WLS: We need short-term budget stimulus, like increased unemployment insurance, to bolster spending, but we also need long-term fiscal restraint, like fixing Medicare and Social Security, to promote trust in the government's ability to meet its obligations. The Fed can help by focusing on what we know it can do, which is to maintain price stability.
WP: You write that President Obama passed over Volcker, who had advised him during the campaign, to joint he administration full-time. How do you think the last few years might have been different with Treasury Secretary Volcker?
WLS: It's pretty clear the Volcker rule [enacted as part of Dodd-Frank financial reforms that prohibits banks from engaging in speculation] would have happened more quickly and without as many holes.
WP: How would you characterize how much influence Volcker has truly had on Obama since he became president?
WLS: Not that much, except for the Volcker rule.
WP: As you see regulators try to implement the Volcker rule, what are your thoughts so far? Is it going to work?
WLS: There's only one way the rule can work: Make the bank's CEO legally and publicly accountable for implementing the ban on speculation. No matter how many regulators we have they'll never stop the speculators unless bank executives help. And they can. I was a trader and had to report my activities to the manager of a trading desk. The trading manager knew when I had taken more risk by speculating than by market-making. He looked at the size of my inventory, frequency of trading, and so on. If the CEO gives very clear marching orders to trading managers then 95 percent of the problem will disappear. Will it mean no more blowups? No, but they will be held to a respectable minimum. That's all we can hope for, and all the Volcker rule can accomplish, which would be a lot.
WP: Volcker's critique of modern Wall Street has long been that it has been corrupted by excessive compensation and a pursuit of innovations that don't actually benefit society. Do you agree?
WLS: People cite Volcker's quote about the ATM [he has said that the only socially useful financial innovation of the recent times was the automated teller machine]. I love the ATM machine. Anybody who ever stood in line to cash checks loves the ATM machine. But it's not as important as the invention of index funds in the mid-1970s. Index funds have helped investors diversify risks at low cost and have revolutionized the mutual fund industry for the better. The same could be said of money market mutual funds. I don't expect to convince Volcker, but there have been some very beneficial financial innovations in addition to the ATM.
