From monuments to kingdoms and palaces, India truly has the vast collection of medieval and ancient times and gives a true picture of the historic India. Though one can see innumerable collection of historical places, but some of the best known places in India are mentioned below:
Ajanta and Ellora Caves
Ajanta and Ellora Caves are one of the crafted carved hillside rock that dates back to the 6th and 11th centuries AD when around 34 caves has been carved. Also, in between the 2nd century BC and 6th century AD around 29 caves were carved. The Ajanta caves are known for sculptures and paintings, whereas the Ellora caves are known worldwide for the extraordinary architecture. What makes the caves unique is the fact that these caves had been crafted by hand and is generally given the shape with the help of a hammer and chisel.
The Taj Mahal
Taj Mahal is said to be one of the Seven Wonders of the World and is known for the resemblance of the true love of Shah Jehan for his wife Mumtaz Mahal. It took more than 20 years to complete the construction of the beautiful monument and to give the shape of what it is today. Shah Jehan made this in the memory of his beloved wife when she died and today it is considered as one of the most romantic places in the world. Made with precious marbles and stones, the monument is crafted with hands to give a true picture of India arts.
Hampi is a small village in Vijaynagar that is known as one of the greatest Hindu kingdom in India. The place is known for the best collection of ruins, which dates back to the 14th century and has more than 500 monuments present. Among all the monuments, Vittala Temple, dedicated to Lord Vishnu, is said to be the one that is known worldwide. The beautifully decorated monuments give a true colour of real India and make everyone feel the historical and cultural site of India.
Fatehpur Sikri
One of the ancient cities in the Agra district that was founded in 1569 by the Mughal emperor Akbar, the place is known for monuments and buildings.

Khajuraho Temples
The Khajuraho Temples, situated around 620 kms southeast of Delhi are known for its best collection of temples that resembles the medieval times.

As a prerequisite to selling real estate, a person must be licensed by the state in which they work, either as an agent/salesperson or as a broker. Before a license is issued, minimum standards for education, examinations and experience, which are determined on a state by state basis, must be met. After receiving a real estate license, most agents go on to join their local board or association of REALTORS® and the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®, the world's largest professional trade association. They can then call themselves REALTORS® in Fire Island Stockton, CA.
How to Choose the Best Filipino REALTOR® in Fire Island Stockton, CA?
Using a Filipino Agent and the Obligations that are Owed to You
An agent is bound by certain legal obligations. Traditionally, these common-law obligations are to: Put the client's interests above anyone else's; Keep the client's information confidential; Obey the client's lawful instructions; Report to the client anything that would be useful; and Account to the client for any money involved.

In recent years, state laws have been passed setting up various duties for different types of agents. As you start working with a REALTOR®, ask for a clear explanation of your state's current regulations, so that you will know where you stand on these important matters.
How to Evaluate an Agent
In making your decision to work with an agent, there are certain questions you should ask when evaluating a potential Stockton Real Estate Agent. The first question you should ask is whether the agent is a REALTOR®.
As a consumer, you end up registering on various real estate search sites and getting tons of emails and reports . You may find yourself asking, how can I know which Asian Realtor to work with and help me navigate through the home buying process in Fire Island Stockton, CA? The following are some tips we suggest:
- You want to see a house when you want to see houses. Agents who are solo may say to you, "I'm not available. How about next week?" Find a Realtor that will be available to accommodate your schedule with reasonable notice.
- Local Market Knowledge. During your first conversation with the agent, ask questions about neighborhoods, schools, trains and other commuting info, specifics that you are interested in knowing about. You'll know in 2 seconds whether the agent you are speaking with is the local market expert and can help you with all of your options.
- What are you looking for in a Filipino Realtor? Find Realtors who will be your advocates. Their job is to help you get what you want. Real estate agents are your consultants, your strategists, and your advisors. They should tell you the truth and will always provide you with enough information so that you can make an informed decision about your home purchase.
- More Tips. Ask the Realtor you are interviewing how proactive they will be in finding you a home. For example, find out if they have a marketing staff that has the resources to find homes for buyers before they hit the market. See if they take a pro-active approach instead of just waiting for new listings to appear in the MLS.
You need to trust a Filipino Realtor in Fire Island Stockton, CA who will do everything possible to get the word out and fight for your best interests. Good work experience, a web presence, and a great network should be standard. With sites such as Zillow.com where you can easily find properties for sale and check out their estimated values and the agent's own network, it's easier than ever before to sell your property. The listing agent's main responsibility is to get the word out and show the house.
Where & How Do I Contact A Filipino Realtor In California?
For work convenience, for pleasure, or for a number of other reasons, many people today are considering a second residence. The residence of choice for many of these people is the condo. From the beaches to the mountains, from the Northeast to the shores of California, there is a plethora of condos to choose from in the United States alone. The community atmosphere of a condominium neighborhood is attractive to many people, as are the many amenities that come with owning a condo. There are a number of new condos for sale in all areas of the country, and they can be found by doing a little research.
First of all, talk to your local real estate agent. Agents have a wealth of information about the market at their fingertips, so take advantage of all the resources available to you. Your agent can point you to the new condos for sale that best meet your needs with regards to both amenities and finances. A new condo can even be constructed especially for you and your family, depending on the regulations in the condominium development in which you wish to build. Many condo communities have regulations regarding what can and cannot be built on the property and what kind of additions and renovations can be made afterwards, so be sure you find out all of this information before beginning any significant planning. Your real estate agent should be able to provide all of this type of information for you either through prior work with the condo developers or by contacting the community directly.
There are new condos for sale coming onto the market regularly, and one of them is sure to be a perfect match for you and your family. By doing some research to find the condo community and location that is right for you and by enlisting the help of a certified real estate agent, your dream of owning a new condo can be realized.
What Are The Benefits of Hiring A Filipino Realtor In California?
I'm going to go on a real quick rant about part-time Realtors in my industry. Now, I want to really be clear about something before I get into this. I was a part-time realtor. When I first made the transition into the real estate industry, I was working a full-time job, a corporate job, and I was working as a Realtor in evenings and weekends, trying to break into the industry to the point where I could sustain myself and my family with real estate and real estate alone.
So, I wanted to be clear about that and people that know me know that story, but I want to give a really good and recent example of the dangers of being part time... and I don't know if I fully understood that when I was doing it. I had a listing, and an offer came in at about ten o' clock one night. It was late and my sellers were advised of the offer, but we decided to deal with it the next morning. Now the realtor, when I told him we'd be discussing things the next day, told me that I was unable to reach him between 9 and 5 because he worked a full-time job, and he did real estate in the side....so he wasn't able to answer his phone between 9 and 5.
So I think that when you're looking for a realtor right now, you need to have a full-time realtor working for you, and if not, because again, I wasn't one in the very beginning... at least make sure that your realtor is accessible through the day for this very reason.

Trump's Controlled Demolition of the Twin Towers of the DNC-GOP Left-Right Paradigm
- published: 17 Sep 2017
- views: 7954
Never before have we seen the leadership of both major political parties so humbled. That power vacuum is currently enabling the president to act without any loyalty to his own party, while working with whomever he pleases on whatever issues he wants. It\'s why we have a Republican congressional leadership, headlined by a Senate Majority Leader with an 18 percent approval rating in his own home state, that could not deliver on its party\'s seven-year-long promises to repeal and replace Obamacare. And it\'s why the Democratic Party is getting more and more embarrassed as its highly-experienced-but-failed 2016 presidential nominee continues to weaken the brand by going on a national tour blaming everyone else for her election loss. None of the above would have been possible before then-candidate Trump eviscerated a crowded field of 16 more experienced GOP regulars in the 2016 primaries. It wouldn\'t be possible before Senator Bernie Sanders, an independent who only registered as a Democrat months before the primaries, came extremely close to upsetting long-held party plans to nominate Hillary Clinton. (Now that same Senator Sanders is leading a march away from Democratic Party orthodoxy and fully advocating single payer health care, with a third of the Democrats in the Senate happily marching away with him.) \"Somewhere, George Washington\'s ghost must be smiling wide with those wooden teeth of his. It was Washington who warned against the formation of political parties and urged the nation to choose leaders for reasons that transcended partisan politics.\" https://www.cnbc.com...

just wondering what ever happened to Danielle Rogers hot blonde
She was hot and this is one of the hottest greek scenes I have ever scene. She is so freakin hot at about 15:24 in on this vid it is incredible. Would love to see her come back.
"Porn Star Danielle Rodgers came out of retirement briefly and stunned many by appearing for the first time in handful of interracial videos.
We took advantage of her short return and matched her up with William for a night on the town.
Danielle and William hit it off perfectly. So perfectly; that they slipped away and were not seen again until the next morning.
This video was shot as William was leaving to go home. We with the help of Danielle's warm mouth lured him back in to bedroom for another steamy session of hard-core fucking."
Wow! This is kind of good news for me, I always had a crush on her since I first saw her, she looks so Regal: that jawline, those eyes and that blonde mane always floated my boat. Now to see she has made the decision to go interracial, I can have the fantasy that "maybe I too could get lucky with a dreamgirl like her"...Of course, the only problem is that she is being banged by these mule-cocked buzzards, and I'm hung like a mouse on birth-control pills, definitively do not "measure up" to those mythical standards, so I win on one hand and lose on the other...Ce La Vie, Ce La Guerre...(Bitter LOL's)...
For example, that Rebecca Wild scene on that site was shot the year before I first met her in 2005.

- Details
- Overall company Operating Income falls -44.9%
- Overall company Revenue falls -10.8%
- Imaging Products & Solutions segment Revenue fall -25.5%
- Imaging Products & Solutions segment Operating Income falls -45%
Overall Company Results
Sony released the first half results for the FY2016 a day after lowering its full-year profit forecast by 10% percent to ¥270b. Given todays results for the first half that turns out to be positive news. Operating Income or profit for H1 FY2016 has fallen by -44.9% from the same period the previous year. It will take a major recovery in the second half to claw back to the new forecast for full-year profits.
It has been difficult for Sony to maintain their profit margins in recent years but at least they can look forward to Q3 that has been their best historically. The problems of earthquakes and rising ¥en appear to be behind them now, for the moment.
- Details
H1 FY2017 Headlines (Apr 1, 2016 to Sep 30,2016)
- Overall company Operating Income falls -21.3%
- Overall company Revenue falls -8.6%
- Imaging Solutions segment Revenue fall -11.5%
- Imaging Solutions segment Operating Income falls -28.5%
The headline figures overshadow what has been a reasonable first half of the year for Fujifilm. The figures are spoiled by the negative impact from the strengthening of the ¥en. Take out that factor and Revenues would be about on par with the previous year but Operating Income would be ahead by 7.5%. What is more difficult to understand is why forex should have such a big impact when over 40% of revenue is credited to the home market.
Previously, the forecast for the full year saw Revenues rising by 2.3% and Operating Income rising by a substantial 15.1%. Overviewing the global economy over this first half the trend is of gradual economic recovery with signs of weakness in Asia. So even given the problems with exchange rates, some more growth was expected.
- Details
Q3 FY2016 Headlines
- Overall company Operating Profit fall -48.2%
- Overall company Net Sales fall -15.9%
- Imaging System segment year-on-year Net Sales fall -17.9%
- Imaging System segment Operating Profit fall -28.4%
The headline figures look bad but despite the reduced sales and profits, at least all of the 3 main business segments are running a positive operating profit. The previous outlook for Q3 was clear that the markets were deteriorating and the forecast was revised down. The specific challenges were a slowdown of the global economy, post-Brexit uncertainty, rising value of the ¥en and production issues due to the Kumamoto earthquake. All of these continued to have a negative impact on sales in the third quarter results.
Todays consolidated results for Q3 FY2016 give a further insight into just how difficult conditions are for camera manufacturers. In Q2 FY2016 year-on-year net sales for the Imaging System segment fell -13.5%. Would Q3 see a deterioration or would the business bounce back?
At the beginning of FY2016 projections for the full year 2016 were for a fall of -8% Gross Sales Value and -16% in Total Units in the Imaging System segment. This fall was to be mainly due to the demise of the Fixed Lens Compact Camera that was expected to fall -24% by Units in 2016 under intense competition from the Smart Phone.
- Details
Previous Forcast
At the end of FY2016 forecasts for the FY2017 were to maintain overall sales and profits by reducing costs, despite the negative impact of a strong ¥en. Sales were to be down just -1% year-on-year and operating income down -14% year-on-year whilst Net Income would rise by +4% to ¥65B. The exchange rate forecast was for ¥/$ at 108/1 and ¥/€ at 120/1.
In the imaging segment of the business things were not so 'rosy'. In line with expectations of the market continuing to decline, Net Sales were set to decline by 11% but Operating Income would improve to wipe out any further losses. Most of the pain was due in the first half of the year but the second half would see an improvement as new products hit the market. The impact of a major earthquake was not factored in at this stage. So how did things work out in the first quarter of FY2017, April to June 2016?
Q1 FY2017 Results
- Details
Previous Forcast
At the end of Q3 FY2016 forecasts were still good despite uncertainties over slowing China and possible litigations. Sales were to be up +7% year-on-year and operating income up +10% year-on-year. The dollar exchange rate was favorable whilst the Euro had turned down slightly.
In the imaging segment of the business, sales were up 1% and previous operating income losses had been wiped out. So all in all expectations for the full year were to maintain this position and move into FY2017 in good shape. So how did things work out in the final quarter.

Jayne Anne Phillips's reputation-making debut assortment prepared the ground for a brand new iteration of writers. Raved approximately via reviewers and embraced through the likes of Raymond Carver, Frank Conroy, Annie Dillard, and Nadine Gordimer, Black Tickets now stands as a classic.
With an uncanny skill to depict the lives of guys and ladies who hardly sign up in our literature, Phillips writes tales that lay naked their agony and pleasure. listed here are the abused and the deserted, the violent and the passive, the impoverished and the disenfranchised who populate the small cities and rural byways of the rustic. A client of the humanities reserves his fondest feeling for the only guy who desires it least. A stripper, the daughter of a witch, escapes from poverty into one other type of violence. a tender woman through the melancholy is stuck among the affection of her loopy father and the no much less robust love of her sorrowful mom. those are nice American tales that experience earned a privileged position in our literature.
By way of Antonio Tabucchi, probably the most well known voices in ecu literature and the main Italian author of his generation, The girl of Porto Pim is made up of enchanting, hallucinatory fragments that occur at the Azores Islands off the coast of Portugal. advised by means of a traveling Italian author unearthing legends, relics and histories of the population, the stories make clear an area eating place proprietress¢s most unlikely love with an Azorean fisherman in the course of WWII, a blinding whaling excursion of eras earlier, shipwrecks either metaphorical and genuine, and a playful examine humankind from the viewpoint of a whale.

Athletes, Dr Oz and Oprah Love Rolfing!
First complete the Health History Form. We will then call you to discuss how Rolfing can reduce chronic pain, improve performance and improve the way you feel.
Back Pain, Hip Pain, Knee Pain, Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Foot Pain, Bad Posture, Scoliosis... Rolfing Can Help.
Rolfing/Structural Integration is one of the most effective therapies for treating chronic pain and improving posture! When combined with Rolf Movement postural alignment exercises, it is an unbeatable combination for drug free pain relief.
A Rolfer is trained to work the soft tissue called fascia to help improve your postural alignment and help your body move more freely. Rolfing can help straighten your spine, align your hips, knees and feet. Scoliosis or an unbalanced walking pattern that you may have had since childhood can even be corrected and improved.
While it may at times look similar, Rolfing is not massage. It is different because a Rolfer works in the fascial structure of the body to create postural alignment. The rolfer focuses on the fascial system, not the bones or muscles, to help get your body back into its proper alignment.
Rolfing is most commonly done in a series of 10 or more sessions which over time can transform the way your body moves, feels and relates to the world. A session is typically 60-90 min, 1-2 sessions per week over the course of 5-10 weeks.
Many clients who have gone through a Rolfing 10 series report that it was life changing. The results have been so positive, that the benefits of Rolfing have been featured on Oprah, Dr Oz and Good Morning America. Many professional and Olympic athletes take advantage of Rolfing on a regular basis to help keep their bodies in an optimal level of performance.

This is disturbing.
Okay rant over. Sorry. It probably was all said before, but oh well.
OK sorry, I`m getting off of the soapbox now. I`m glad we could come to an agreement of sorts bandit.
I have just known a lot of people who use it and most of them weren`t exactly winners. That`s not to say it applies to everyone and I should`ve said it better.
Jumping to another post so I don`t run out of room.
Shut the hell up little boy, you make foolish assumptions on things you have no idea about. You claim stoners are stupid? Here`s a list of words you spelled wrong in that sentence: Now, stupid, they`re, entertainment, it`s. Your english is so horrible I barely understood it. "though still very entertainment.." WTF?!?!? I`m certain you have no right to call anyone but yourself "supid."
I was the biggest stoner you have ever met. I`m in college right now in an advanced program, and I`ve never made anything lower than an A on a quiz. I have a horrible memory from smoking pot, granted, but I`m not stupid.
Freddyferret: I know a bunch of people who`ve NEVER smoked pot, and most of them are complete retards.
Smoking anything slowly kills you by destroying your lungs.
That should end the "pot is ok" argument.
If you smoke cigs or pot you`re killing yourself either way...so who cares what the "mental" part of it is.
My brother lost his job over it so it certainly isn`t a positive in that area...
I just don`t smoke anything, rather enjoy breathing and the idea of being able to do so when i`m 80.
I had another professor at this same school who was equally as nutty, but, I`m going to tell you something, I paid attention to him! And it`s a helluva lot better than some monotone idiot up there reading from prepared notes.
Thanks, bandits111. I was thinking Dr. Denslow, but he`s an economics prof, and, as I said, it was a long time ago. Excellent teacher, though, as I`m sure this man is. :-)
Its just not the fact that pot will effect his lesson, as people have said, theres no proven evidence that it made him do his job less efficient, even though it probably did. But its the way he`s not only broken school rules as a teacher and risked his entire career, but he`s also broken the law by taking an illegal drug.. so that proves he`s incredibly dumb for risking that all for a joint or two. All he had to do was wait a couple of hours til he got home and THEN he can relax and have a joint
I see two groups of people here: those who have been whipped into believing what the government force-feeds about marijuana, and THOSE WHO HAVE TRIED IT (and thus, like it, having seen that its nothing but a good relaxation device).
But guys. What makes anyone think this man is stoned? He just seems like a lot of fun to me.
And also, it seems that everythings being taken out of context, so who knows...these things could well be applicable,as Swaywithme said.
But even if he is high...I really dont think it seemed to negatively impact his teaching skills!
But Im probably just a hippy :)
Only if you`re in the States 8-)
bubblebub has a point though and that should be acknoweldged. She`s certainly not wrong though I wouldn`t compare this to a doctor...
He shouldn`t be stoned while he`s at work and while he`s providing people with information they need to complete their education. We only see a little bit of his lecture so I highly doubt his entire speech was like THAT.
It`s funny, for us. The students have a warrent to be upset about it.
Still, that doesn`t make pot evil.
Of course it`s serious if your teacher is unable to do their job, but unlike open-heart-surgery or diagnosing illness, with teaching you have a safety net provided by others who can do their job properly.
For all the people that think this teacher isnt doing anything wrong.. how would you feel if you were seriously ill in hospital and your life hanged in the balance of one doctor and that doctor took a joint before seeing you, you`d be prefectly happy about that? seeing as his "intelligence" isnt effected? You still think he`d be able to do his job 100%?
Cos i dont know about you, but i`d like my doctor or teacher to have a totally clear head before they mess with my future!
As for the pot versus alcohol versus cigarettes argument, I think Mr. Mackey says it best, but that includes alcohol, too. Or another way to say it is, all things in moderation... ;-)
However, I would like to say this...I am probably one of the only people responding to this post who has taken this class from this professor at this college. The FACT is that he is an intelligent professor and the class and most of his statements make sense when put into context. So, next time, I would ask that YOU not be so quick to judge i.e. -"I would be getting a refund for this class and getti
Anyway, the smelling thing is bull sh it. A lot of people like the smell of pot. If you don`t handle breathing in smoke well, the SMELL of pot isn`t going to kill you.
Vindicate: Sucks for you. Do you think we should get rid of cats and dogs too for all the people allergic to them?No, because cats and dogs are awesome. Like weed. Not ciggs, they suck. But I agree people should spray some Axe or something on before going out after smoking...or change clothes.
Community college doesn`t count, sorry. As far as f*cking me, you could only be so lucky.
Bandits1111, I don`t do drugs or drink. I have better things to do with my time. I never had the urge to make a flaming idiot out of myself by putting things like that in my body. You prove my point about stupidity by your comments. You make assumptions about me based on nothing. I can`t stand the president, hate corporate America, and know more about politics and current events than most people I know. Just because I am against pot and alcohol doesn`t mean I`m a American drone who only knows what is spoonfed to me by the morons in the media. Don`t try to debate something without facts or valid points. Your assumptions were based on nothing but your anger.
Except of course for people who are allergic to the smoke (random, yes, but I`m also allergic to cigarette smoke... my lungs just don`t like foreign substances, what can I say?) - because by smoking, you create second-hand smoke. And in the same vein as cigarette smokers, other people are forced to inhale the smoke in your vicinity. Not to mention the smell. Of course, if you want to smell like a skunk, that`s your perogative. But you DO force people to be exposed to it by going out in public while high and still smelling of it. So while you may not force them to sit down and inhale the joint, you still force the smell on them.
Just like cigarette smokers. But illegal and more idiotic. Kthxbye.
Live a little. Don`t be so judgemental about something with which you have no first hand experience.
"But honestly, don`t have a go at ppl who have the sense not too."
Sense? We don`t hit out at people who don`t WANT to try it, sure. It`s a personal choice and you should never force anyone into an experience if they don`t want to...But don`t think you can judge anyone until you`ve been in their shoes. Don`t have a go at people who do use it. A doctor who saves lives all day and goes home and smokes a joint to relax before falling asleep is still just as capable as someone who goes home and has a glass of wine with dinner...or someone who goes home and has a late night cigarette, both of which are legal. I would never laugh at someone who chose to try pot...but I would laugh at people who were afraid to experience it and instead mocked others.
As for the benefits of pot, there never would be any for me. Allergies are, at least in this case, very helpful. So even if I *had* an urge to get high, I`d probably suffocate or my brain would explode from pain first. Thus, pot = stupid. Just like smoking cigs. Or alcohol. Or gambling.
there are too many misconceptions on the effects of marijuana on the brain.
and if you just go by what your health teachers have told you, you are sadly misinformed.
You can be smart, but drugs can only make you dumber.
I seriously doubt any school, college, or uni, would take on a professor if all he can do is laugh at longbow and say duuuuuuuuuude.
And that`s not a slur on stoners either. It just seems to me that the guy is not able to effectively teach in that state and paying him would be a waste of money.
Kids in America aren`t as stupid as their parents who obviously can`t see a fascist ruler when he`s smiling at them right in the face! Education is putting pieces together, not just learning from the text book provided. If that were the case any ignoramous like yourself could teach. Alcohol and holding your breath kill brain cells as well...why not ban that also?
Finally, I like how you judge a Prof. based on a snippet of the lecture...probably the same way you judge politics and world affairs...from snippets provided to you by the big 10 companies. Get your head out your arse and do some conceptual learning for a change. It is only nonsense if you can`t make those connections...and that only means YOU are the stupid one.
Besides that, There`s a bunch of missing pieces of this or something...So none of it made sense. It proboly would make sense with the whole video...So I`m going to get stoned and watch this agian =]
I would far rather have a teacher like this, under the influence or not (which is quite possible, there are some strange people out there) than some dry old professor who knows how to do nothing but spew facts instead of keeping the classes interesting.
And I think that, AND I`m NOT a pothead.
Well...not really, at least.
Yeah, they are stupid. They never think they are because they`ve already fried their brains. I`ve known a bunch of people who smoke pot and none of them are smart. Some have good jobs because they got them before they started smoking. Others are in college thinking they`re doing a great job but they`re barely passing. They think that just passing is good enough. Maybe it is for them.
I would be getting a refund for this class and getting a new professor. While it`s entertaining, I could pay a lot less to get that. If I`m paying to learn I don`t want a pothead spouting off nonsense instead of teaching. Even if it seemed to make sense, if he`s stoned he doesn`t need to be teaching. No wonder kids in this country are so stupid. They`re getting "educated" by people like this dumbass.

Nippon Telegraph and Telephone, Japan's dominant telephone group, looks set to increase its stake in the Philippines' largest phone operator, signalling determination to boost profits by investing in high-growth Asian markets.
NTT DoCoMo, NTT's mobile arm and biggest subsidiary by revenue, on Tuesday announced a "goal" to build NTT's stake in Philippine Long Distance Telephone from just above 15 per cent to at least 20 per cent – worth about $2bn.
A 20 per cent stake would allow DoCoMo to put its earnings from the much more profitable Philippine company on its own profit and loss account, by making PLDT an affiliate under the US accounting rules used by DoCoMo. DoCoMo said this was an important reason for building its share.
The announcement comes less than a week after DoCoMo's president Masao Nakamura told the Financial Times that he planned to expand abroad to counter the saturation of Japan's mobile market. Mr Nakamura told the FT: "Overseas revenues will drive our growth in the future."
PLDT is twice as profitable as DoCoMo, based on its ebidta margin: earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation as a proportion of revenue. This was 64 per cent in the year to December. DoCoMo's was 33 per cent in the year to March.
DoCoMo already has an 8.65 per cent share in PLDT, and sister company NTT Communications, the technology services provider, holds 6.7 per cent. DoCoMo said for technical reasons the profits from the combined 20 per cent stake would be reported by DoCoMo, rather than its parent company NTT.
The plans to boost the stake in PLDT underline a shift in DoCoMo's overseas strategy. The company took big stakes in foreign groups such as AT&T Wireless at the height of the technology bubble. But the subsequent collapse forced it to sell its stakes for a Y1,100bn loss in 2001. The company then concentrated on alliances with mobile operators across the world to increase the number of customers using i-mode, its internet service. But last week Mr Nakamura said: "Our focus is Asia."

Not long after a grim note of determination to rebuild his nation, President Donald Trump restored to the Oval Office the bust of a world leader who, in a different time, pledged a different nation "blood, toil, tears and sweat."
Great to see the Churchill bust finally is back in the White House, after being removed by Barack Obama.#Inauguration #Freedomball pic.twitter.com/CkN8Nb8os2

A bust of Winston Churchill that was present during the administration of President George W. Bush but was banished during the tenure of former President Barack Obama was on display Friday night as Trump signed his first executive orders.

The return of the bust brought reactions on Twitter, as well as quotes from Churchill that replicated the tough-talking style of Trump's inaugural address.
"Be of good cheer . . . The soul of freedom is deathless; it cannot, and will not perish."

Pres Trump has brought back the bust of Churchill to Oval Office. Someone in the media can explain how admiring Churchill is Hitler-like
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) January 21, 2017
The bust was originally on loan from Britain, and then placed at the British Embassy in Washington after Obama had it removed. Trump had asked British officials to have the bust re-loaned.
Obama said he moved Churchill out to make room for a bust of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King.

Reporters on Friday night noted that Trump had arranged the Oval Office to make room for both.
Obama insisted that moving Churchill was not intended as a slight against either Churchill or England.
However, Boris Johnson, now the foreign press secretary, had said Obama's removal of Churchill's bust was "a symbol of the part-Kenyan president's ancestral dislike of the British empire — of which Churchill had been such a fervent defender."
A spokesperson for Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May relayed May's willingness to accommodate the president-elect with the loan.
"The prime minister is happy to loan the Churchill bust to the White House and will be delighted to view it on display when she visits this spring," reported the spokesperson.

Entreaty To The Theotokos – Jerusalem Posters
The Mother of God Jerusalem Icon – Available For Purchase in Poster Format
Dear Friends,
I am very happy to share this poster with you, and am very grateful to the St. Xenia Skete, in Wildwood, California, who blessed me to be able to take this image which was made for them by a Fr. James, and was hanging in their office. Mother Theofania, saids that this particular image of the Mother of God, which hangs in Jerusalem over her sepulchre, is considered to be the one which looks the most like her as she would have appeared living.
In gratitude for blessing me to use this icon with the inscription by Abbess Rufona, to raise operating funds for HeartSoul Ekonomia Institute, I am donating 25% of the proceeds to the St. Xenia Skete.
Come back soon to see the Poster, Postcard, and Wallet Size Card Design!
Please allow 1-2 weeks for delivery.
Abbess Rufona's Testament of the Mother of God:
"No matter what sorrow might befall you, no matter what sickness might strike you, no matter how unbearable your family life might be, no matter how unstable your position at work–in all these circumstances turn to the Queen of Heaven, and with tears beg her to help, and She, our Sovereign Lady, will hear you and help you in everything. Remember, that for Her, there is nothing impossible."
Dear Friends, Following are the Designs of the Poster which is available in three sizes, and also are the Postcard and the Wallet Size Versions of this Icon of the Mother of God-Jerusalem:
This is the PostCard Version.
It will have minimum
printing on the back.
This is the Wallet Sized Version. I decided on a slim card
so that it would fit more easily in the
billfold or any wallet card compartment.
Mother of God Icon at Jerusalem–Some Stories About this Icon which Occurred Recently
Hope you like these. There were some recent miracles regarding this Icon, perhaps you may have heard of them. Elizabeth from Jordanville, just told me about them. One miraculous incident is that a lady went to the Icon in Jerusalem (it tours in the Middle Eastern Area) and wanted to give to the Mother of God – Jerusalem her wedding ring to adorn the Icon as a expression of reverence, and was in line and having a hard time taking the ring off of her finger. When the woman, feeling a bit distraught, got up to the the Icon, the Mother of God herself, hand came from the Icon and took the ring off of the lady's finger, in the presence of many witnesses. It shows that these simple gifts of piety are accepted by our Lord Jesus Christ, and our Sovereign Lady.

I certainly would,. although TUSC would seek to obtain more help for people who experience substance abuse.

It is essential that we have an effective security system. However, in TUSC we do not condone government policies to access the private messages of ordinary citizens.

Carter and I have never really been that into Valentine's Day. He, because, well, he's Carter and he chooses to be loving and spontaneous every day with extra spontaneous gestures peppered throughout the year. I, on the other hand, hate it because for my entire romantic life before Carter, my boyfriends used to Valentine's Day as an excuse to be total d-bags 364 days a year as long as they spent $250+ or more on that one day.
I mean, I wasn't a peach either. But this isn't about me. …..on my personal blog.
Anyway, we usually spend Valentine's Day watching an absurd amount of Hulu and eating an equally absurd amount of Indian food. Which is just the way I like it.
But since I'm becoming a softie lately (more on this later), I'm feeling a little tug on my heartstrings and wanted to wish all of you a very Happy Valentine's Day.
Unless this is more your speed:
Either way. I don't judge.

Have Professional Air Duct Cleaning Performed Now that Spring is Here!
It's finally here! Even though it may not feel like it, spring is in the air. When last we wrote, winter was still in full swing and we were dealing with cabin fever and the winter "blahs". Now, we can't wait to get out of the house and experience the rebirth that is spring. The flowers will be blooming, the grass growing, and the sun will be shining. Even though you won't be spending every moment indoors, it's a good idea to have those air ducts checked - just in case you didn't get around to doing it during the winter.
In just a few short weeks, your heating system will be turned off for the season, and you'll be getting ready to get your air conditioning up and running. Spring is definitely the most beautiful time of the year, but with it come seasonal allergies: pollen, rag weed and other irritants will be swirling around, making us miserable. During the growing season, all this debris can blow into your air ducts, so when you turn on that air conditioner, it all comes blowing out into your home. You can avoid that happening by having our professional duct cleaners clean your vents and check your HVAC system, making sure everything is in good working order. That way, you can breathe a little easier when you're inside, even though you're planning on spending as much time as possible outdoors.
A twice yearly check of your heating and cooling systems is always a good idea, especially if you live in an area surrounded by trees, shrubs and flowers. Getting sick with the flu or a pesky winter cold is bad enough; succumbing to allergies during spring means you're missing out on the great outdoors. Protect yourself and your family this spring by having your ducts cleaned and keeping your home free from all the yearly springtime allergens.
Canaduct Duct Cleaning performs professional air duct cleaning in Toronto and throughout the GTA. Now is the time to gear up for a glorious spring. Call Canaduct Duct Cleaning and let us help you with your spring cleaning.

Is Dr Martens' no in-store return policy bad for business?
Ordering online from Dr Martens is enjoyable. There are lots of shoes and boots that I want in my life, such as the Pendleton pictured here.
But Dr Martens doesn't accept in-store returns.
This is something that, with the advent of multichannel retail, consumers have come to expect. I wonder how this is affecting buyers and business?
Alternative payments used for 43% of online transactions: report
Alternative payments only account for a small proportion of ecommerce transactions in the US and UK, however methods such as e-wallets, direct debits and cash on delivery continue to show strong growth in other regions.
Therefore it's a feature that businesses can't ignore, particularly at a time when many e-tailers are seeking to expand into international markets.
A new report from WorldPay highlights the way in which the use of alternative payments (AP) differs across global markets, with PayPal shown to be the most popular AP method globally, though Chinese companies Alipay and Tenpay are also popular and growing at a faster rate.
It's estimated that alternative payments accounted for 43% of all online transactions in 2012, a figure that is predicted to rise to 59% by 2017 (though predictions should always be treated with some scepticism).
11 easy responsive themes for ecommerce and small business
Responsive design isn't just for the giants of ecommerce, your start-up business can also grab an off-the-shelf model for a reasonable price, or even for free.
Following on from David Moth's article 10 simple responsive Wordpress themes for small businesses and blogs I thought I would take a look at some of the best available templates for ecommerce sites.
If you run a small business, or are looking to make the leap from Etsy or eBay into your own domain, you could do a lot worse then looking at one of the following templates.
As a caveat, I haven't used any of these in their proper working forms, I've just played around with the demo versions, checking for customisability and whether the sites really do offer true responsiveness.
It would be worth doing your own investigation on each one before committing to buy. If you click on the images below, you will be taken through to the demo versions where you can check out the product, look at the custom options and of course the price of the product yourself.
Templates are available from many different vendors and the bulk of these are from independent designers, but first I'll take a look at the best designs available from Shopify.
Will Google have to start a marketplace?
With searchers choosing Amazon over Google for product searches and eBay resurgent, will Google have to launch its own marketplace to keep up?
Online retailers are a major source of advertising revenue for Google but shoppers are increasingly turning to Amazon as their shopping first port of call.
In 2010 24% of shoppers began researching on Google verses 18% on Amazon, however in 2012 this had almost completely reversed with 30% on Amazon and only 13% on Google.
Google is clearly aiming to be the destination for product searches with the launch of Product Listing Ads (PLA). However, some industry experts are wondering whether to win in this space Google will need to go beyond simply advertising products and launch a fully-fledged marketplace.
Here's why...
Sports Direct: check out those calls to action!
Sports Direct is brilliant. Ok, it had some problems last year as its reputation took a blow thanks to the retailer's use of zero hour contracts, but on the sales front, it's flying along.
New stores are opening, other sports retailers are being battered into submission and 2,000 staff members are to receive a cool £100k bonus after profits climbed by 40% to £200m last year.
With 12 languages and 10 currency options, the Sports Direct website should continue to aid the company's growing profits.
The website has been praised in many quarters. It's certainly easy to use and strongly conveys the brand's identity.
Visiting the site I was struck by just how good its calls to action are, and how easy it is to get around (unlike their stores). I thought I'd round up a few of the best bits.
Enjoy them in all their enormous garish glory. I think they're part of a growing lust for simplicity that is driving web design forward.
Why online retailers should enclose the checkout process
Checkout abandonment continues to be a major topic in ecommerce, and one which retailers have plenty of options to deal with.
According to stats from Salecycle, checkout abandonment rates in Q2 2013 averaged 75.5% across all industry verticals.
One way to reduce abandonment rates is to enclose the checkout process, and remove distractions that may form a barrier to purchase. Here's why...
Morrisons launches first ecommerce store: is it any good?
Morrisons has finally taken the plunge and unveiled its first ecommerce store.
The grocery retailer said that its failure to launch an ecommerce store was one of the main reasons behind its recent 5.6% slump in sales, which saw its share price fall by 7%.
Ecommerce still only represents about 5% of total grocery sales in the UK, but that's still a £7.5bn market that Morrisons wasn't able to compete in.
In general I'm not that impressed with the UX offered by Morrisons' rival stores, as the checkout process is generally overly long and badly designed on grocery sites.
But has Morrisons managed to buck the trend? Let's find out...

Pricing hacks for ecommerce stores that bring in the dollars
According to an August 2012 study conducted by ReffferralCandy, in the US there are 102,728 ecommerce retailers that generate $12,000 or more in revenue.
Given the ever increasing consumer migration to the digital marketplace, this number has likely grown even more in the last year and a half.
With such a competitive market, online retailers need to do what they can to stand out and provide incentive for consumers to shop at their store over another.
One way to do this is to gain the consumers' trust and loyalty; as part of a full strategy, effective pricing strategies can help grow this customer relationship.
Pricing strategies on the website slightly mirror those in physical stores, and they are a great way to capture potential customers throughout the phases of the sales cycle.
Dog's breakfast at Tiffany: how it almost lost my business
The average man finds buying jewellery daunting. I am an average man.
By the way, this article is subtitled my 'my poor customer experience' or 'less than luxury email' or perhaps 'why aren't luxury retailers all over this stuff?'
I was trying to buy some jewellery for my girlfriend and because I was nervous about it, I first contacted Tiffany by email.
The reason I did this was also because the ring was out of stock on their website in the size I was after.
This started a chain of annoyances that I thought I should share, and other sites can learn from.
2014 predictions from the New York tech community
2013 turned out to be a monumental year for ecommerce.
Twitter, Rocket Fuel and Criteo IPOed. Online sales closed at record highs, with more and more transactions taking place by consumers on smartphones and tablets.
Overstock.com committed to become one of the early adaptors of Bitcoin as a method of payment. And in an economy traditionally dominated by finance and real estate, tech has become New York City's second largest sector, cementing its status as Silicon Alley.
So what's new for 2014? I asked my friends in New York's digital community to share their predictions of how the marketers' world may be affected as it relates to global ecommerce trends, mobile's continued prowess, and emerging acquisition strategies. Here's what they had to say.
Will high street retailers win the battle for delivery speed?
Five years ago pure play was the king of the ecommerce jungle. The lean business models, efficient tax structures and minimal property costs were destined to mean the end of bricks-and-mortar retail as we know it.
Now, however, the high street is fighting back from an unexpected quarter.

Until Tuesday, there had been no sign of Moran. Police say she used the identity of Anndorie Sachs to gain admittance to Alta View Hospital in Sandy and was transferred to University Hospital, where she gave birth.
