i can't stop staring at this artwork by christine gray. it's colorful and trippy and brings to mind the atmosphere at a music festival – probably because the one with the tents and bonfire reminds me of burning man.
i want to be in this last image jumping on the trampoline into fiery night skies…
about her artwork, christine says, "in my work i look at the cultural mythologies that misrepresent nature and our relationship to it. i remake landscapes according to these fictions through both objects and painting, thereby adding to and revealing the fallacy of these representations. the sculptural tableaux i make as models for my paintings are theatrical, temporary situations where the real and imagined collapse into a space outlined by contradictory boundaries. extraordinary outcomes are made feasible by the distortion of the everyday. my most recent body of work focuses on the american myth of the seeker, traveling alone through untouched landscapes in search of a revelatory experience of the divine."

This year the delay in Results of Calicut University has impacted the future of about 3000 final year students.
Due to the delay of Results students cannot apply for master degree courses in any college as most universities including Central Universities have already completed or are in the process of concluding postgraduate admissions.
Though the university had released the degree Results last week the students of CCSS (choice-based credit semester system) are yet to get their degree Results as the answer sheets of these students have been lost due to errors in the barcodes printed on them.
In the mean time 52000 private degree students who appeared for their final degree exams last month may lose 1 academic year as the university has not even began the correction of answer sheets.
The varsity is now taking all initiatives conduct the exam again for 3000 CCSS students and declare result before July 20, 2012 though it will involve huge amount of logistics and management.
A private degree student revealed that students had to deal with large number of uncertainties during the entire course.
Sources from the university revealed that it is taking all efforts to recognize the answer scripts of students who have not received their Results.
The university will open a centralized valuation camp for private students once it provides the marks card for CCSS students. Till now no deadline has been stipulated for declaration of degree course Results.

Former Packers tight end Mark Chmura is predicting that Jermichael Finley's football career will come to an end.
Chmura told radio station 540 ESPN Milwaukee that he had a chance to talk to Finley, who told him he would be having surgery on his C3 and C4 vertebrae.
Thus, Chmura thinks Finley's career is likely over.
"I think it's gonna be a Nick Collins deal," Chmura told the radio station. "He's definitely not gonna play in Green Bay, I'd put my house on that."
Collins had a similar injury, a herniated disk that required surgery. He was never able to play football again.
Finley injured his neck last month against the Browns. He has since been placed on injured reserve.

Every rock guitarist knows the name "Marshall." Every rock guitarist. The name is legendary and carries a certain allure for rock 'n roll musicians the world over. Now Marshall offers that same rock legend status to a broader market with their headphone line. Our pair, the Major, are the flagship headphones for Marshall's solid entry into the crowded on-ear category.
The Major namesake is derived from a 200 watt amplifier head that the British company had released in the late '60's as a high powered offering. Rock lore has it that those beasts could explode on stage when pushed hard. Not to worry though, the modern day Major headphones will not blow up on your head.
Frankly, what should be an explosive audio delivery leaves a little bit to be desired when coupled with any iPod or iPhone. Bass response is minimal and the sound is flat overall from an EQ standpoint. The audio, however, is clear and crisp for a very even sound with a lot of mids. Playing with the EQ settings on both my devices, unfortunately, were barely able to boost the highs or lows to my preference. Interestingly enough, the Major does include an in-line play/pause button and mic that is compatible with most Apple products and any phone or player with a two-way plug.
Take heart though, Rock Minions, the Major offers more in the way of detail, features and charm. From the same vinyl and basket-weave, to the gold metallic accents found on Marshall's amps, these headphones boast an array of aesthetically pleasing elements to put it ahead of similar sets. Namely, the comfortable leather ear pads and the heavy-duty coiled cord (so retro!) are enough to make any rock aficionado swoon. Speaking of retro, the packaging was a unique cardboard representation that unveiled to display the headphones on a pedestal, getting us pumped to try them out.
Awesome packaging for awesome headphones @marshallhp vine.co/v/bpPwtwmalLt
— Jack Cotter (@JackJCotter) March 20, 2013
Included as standard with the headphones is a 6.3mm gold-plated stereo adapter for use with any standard ¼" input. This is particularly useful for guitar amps or effects processors with headphone jacks. This is where the Major really shines. When coupled with my Marshall Class 5 combo amp (naturally) or my Line6 Pod, the Major blossoms into a great choice for midnight shred sessions. The highs are clear, the lows tight and every nuance of either device maintained. In other words, these are a great choice for practice sessions or basic home recording use. The addition of adapters also makes the Major very attractive to guitarists or bass players.
Sadly, unlike most of Marshall's amp line, these bad boys are NOT manufactured in the UK. They are lovingly crafted by Zound Industries in China under license. This is not necessarily a detractor for most looking into a new set of headphones, but for the guitar crowd who are accustomed to most of their wares being produced in the West, it may come as a shock.
While the Major is a great stylish set for your preferred phone or player, it performs better in Marshall's natural habitat: rock. These aren't Beats or Skullcandy. They won't pump bass enough for the hip-hop tuned eardrum. What they will do is offer is a great addition to any guitarist's practice rig and give the rock collector a taste of Marshall without having to find room for a full stack amp.

Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2
It's Easier To Pick The Leader Of The Free World
The only choice able to rival the consternation facing undecided civic duty-doers today might be taking a stand for one of this week's blockbuster new releases. Fear not, for unlike your singular opportunity to pull that hallowed lever, nothing but your budget can prevent you from taking both these bad boys home.
Some similarities exist between GOW 2 and Resistance 2, not the least of which is that they are unabashedly awesome. Both are exclusive to their consoles, both offer near endless multiplayer appeal to supplement the single player and co-op campaign modes, and both ask you to repel an inhuman scourge threatening the Earth's very existence. Speaking of, did anyone ask the Presidential hopefuls where they stand on the issue of inhuman scourges?
My hope for you, dear reader, is that you needn't make any more tough choices this week. Both of these gems look to fulfill their promises to the gaming public. If you were to press me on a choice though, I'd give the edge to Gears of War 2; after all, it's still got a chainsaw rifle to help you reach across the aisle.
Gears of War 2 ($60) emerges Friday | Resistance 2 ($60) out today

Next best action marketing continuously attempts to find out what could be the next best step in the sale process for customer at individual level. While a company is using next best action marketing it gathers information about customers by using a variety of methods. Normally it is done by employees of the company by simply interacting with the customers. Sometimes a customers also approaches a company as the first step and then the company gathers data about customers. The strategy for next best action marketing is formulated by keeping in mind consumers' interests and also the organization's business objectives.
Next best action marketing is different from traditional marketing in the sense that in traditional marketing initially proposition for products and services are created and then attempts are made to find the prospects while in next best action initially customers reviews are taken and then proposition for service and products are created. Therefore, next best action marketing is consumer centric and traditional marketing is normally product centric. Sometimes businesses use next best action marketing tactics to build loyalty among customers even during sales conversation. Normally, next best action marketing works great in service industry where employees can talk to customers about their interests and preferences and can customize their service accordingly.
For example; car dealers often talk to their customers about the features they want in their car and how much they are willing to pay for a particular car thus gathering information about customers' preferences.

Let S be the sum of all the possible values of sinx that satisfy the following equation:
S can be written as ab, where a and b are coprime positive integers. What is the value of a+b?
Let S be the sum of all the possible values of sinx that satisfy the following equation:
S can be written as ab, where a and b are coprime positive integers. What is the value of a+b?
First, let's get everything in terms of one function. Let's replace cos 2x with the double angle formula
cos 2x = 1 - 2 sin2x
5 - 2 (1 - 2sin2x) - 7 sin x = 0 . Simplifying, we get
5 - 2 + 4 sin2x - 7 sinx = 0, then
3 + 4 sin2x - 7 sinx = 0
Rearranging terms, we get
4 sin2x - 7 sinx + 3 = 0
Hmmm... this looks a lot like a quadratic equation... let's factor it
(4 sin x - 3)(sin x - 1) = 0
sin x - 1 = 0 ===> sin x = 1
4 sin x - 3 = 0 ===> sin x = 3/4
So if S = the sum of values of sin x, then S would equal 1 3/4, but I'm missing identifying values for a and b that would be positive integers where the product would equal 1 3/4...
I appreciate any input from my esteemed colleagues who can take it from here...
thank u so much..
You're welcome. That's why we're here.
I'll give it a try...
It looks like the only time this equation can be true is when (cos 2x) evaluates to -1 and, simultaneously, (sin x) evaluates to 1. In that case 5 - 2(-1) - 7(1) = 0. Since sine and cosine values range between 1 and -1, this is the only pair that satisfies the equation. We know (sin x) = 1 at (pi/2) and again at (5*pi)/2, (9*pi)/2, etc. These are also the points at which cos(2x) = -1; if you graph cos(2x) it is "compressed" such that its periodicity is in pi radians and not (2*pi) radians.
If I'm reading this question right, the only possible value of (sin x) that satisfies this equation is 1. So S=1, and the only possible way to satisfy ab=1 and have them both be positive integers is for a and b to equal 1. So a+b=2.
I'm curious to know what class presented you with such a problem! Unless there are some fancy theories I'm forgetting, or forgot from my college courses 20+ years ago, then please disregard everything I said before. But this is the only answer I can come up with to satisfy the problem.
Kevin S. In Seneca did an excellent job in figuring out that this equation can be factored and set equal to zero. It can be factored into two binomials: (4Sin(x) - 3)(Sin(x) - 1) = 0.
From here, it's a piece of cake. You just set the factors to zero. Sin(x) - 1 will be equal to zero when Sin(x) is equal to 1. This occurs at 90 degrees, or pi/2 depending on whether you are in degree or radian measure. Now as for making 4Sin(x) - 3 equal to zero; first you do some algebra and get that sin(x) = 3/4. In other words, the value of Sine in this case must be 0.75. It is important to note, however, that this is NOT A VALUE of Sine which appears explicitly on the unit circle. It's not, say, the Sine of 2pi/3 or 45 degrees. So how do you figure it out? I have three words for you: GOD BLESS CALCULATORS.
If you type Sin(-1)(.75) into any scientific calculator, you will get your answer. In radian measure, it's about .848. In degree measure, it's 48.59 degrees.

The world finally got its first glimpse of the newest gadget in town, the iPad. Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs, unveiled the new tablet computer earlier this week in San Francisco.
Weighing less than two pounds, the iPad is less than 10 inches tall and is only half an inch thick. But besides its super-sleek design and advanced technologies, the iPad also includes several eco-friendly features as well.
iPad Green Features:
- The iPad includes arsenic-free display glass, mercury-free LCD display and is free of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- The tablet also includes recyclable aluminum and glass enclosure.
- Its long battery life allows users to surf, listen to tunes or watch videos for up to 10 hours on a single charge. The 25Whr rechargeable lithium-polymer built-in battery can be recharged up to 1,000 times.
- For those interested in environmentally-friendly electronic books, the iPad is also an e-book reader. Apple's new application, iBooks, is available for download from the Apple App Store. And even better – the app is free
The iPad retails for $499 on up and will roll out in March, 2010.
A Greener Apple
Other green initiatives at Apple include:
- Apple's popular Recycling Program recycles computers, mobile phones and displays regardless of manufacturer. Bring in an older iPod model to an Apple Retail Store, and receive a 10 percent discount on a newer model. Old Mac batteries will also be recycled for free. In 2008, 33 million pounds of electronic waste was recycled by the company. Over 83 million pounds of equipment have been diverted from landfills since 1994.
- Every day, nearly 600 employees take part in Apple's employee commuter program by riding the free biodiesel commuter coaches to and from work.
- Since 2006, energy-efficient lighting and motion sensors for automatic shutoffs have saved over 2 million kilowatt-hours of electricity.
- Apple also uses less material in its products by making them smaller, lighter and thinner. For example, the 20-inch iMac uses 55 percent less than the 1998 15-inch model.
- Packaging has also been reduced. Due to a 40 percent reduction in packaging between 2006 and 2009, 50 percent more boxes were shipped in each airline's shipping container.
- And according to the company website, Apple is the "only company in the industry whose entire desktop and notebook product lines meet the strict energy efficiency requirements set by the EPA's Energy Star Program."
We highlighted the work of Steve Jobs in a recent post about sustainable CEOs. But Apple doesn't have the cleanest track record in sustainability circles. Greenpeace ran a campaign in 2007 that urged Apple to reduce its use of hazardous materials–to which Apple responded with a concerted effort to do so, and to lessen its overall footprint. But the firm again raised the ire of some watchdogs with its recent rejection of shareholder resolutions aimed at greater sustainability reporting.

Air New Zealand's next Social Media Breakfast will be headlined by Teddy Goff, the digital director of President Barack Obama's 2012 election campaign.
Goff will be bringing insights fresh from the political trail to Auckland in February, and while it's unlikely anything on the Obama for America scale will be replicated here any time soon, there's plenty to be learned from a wider view of building engagement, loyalty and converting this to revenue.
Obama's 2012 digital campaign raised more than US$690 million, registered more than a million voters online, ran the largest online advertising programme in political history, built groundbreaking tools for online fundraising and campaigning, grew Facebook and Twitter followings of more than 45 and 33 million respectively and clocked up more than 133 million video views – to say nothing of generating the most viral photo ever.
Air New Zealand GM of marketing and communications, Mike Tod, says that after the success of the first Social Media Breakfast in July, quarterly events are planned for 2013.
This year's Air NZ Social Media Breakfast speaker of honour was Randi Zuckerberg – formerly marketing director at Facebook and founder and creative director of R to Z Studios (and yes, sister to Mark).

Badgers pull off OT win against Fresno, despite flu
Wisconsin football coach Bret Bielema hopes the Badgers are a lot healthier when they host Wofford on Saturday.
Bielema said more than 40 players had flu-like symptoms at one point last week and about a half-dozen players were getting IV fluids just before last Saturday's game started against Fresno State.
Corner Aaron Henry called the team's trainer at 1:30 a.m. Saturday because he was throwing up. He played, but did not last long.
The Badgers pulled off a 34-31 double overtime victory over Fresno State.
Safety Jay Valai, who was sick for much of the week, said it forced his team to "man up" and get ready despite the conditions.
Safety Chris Maragos, who made the game-winning interception in the second overtime, said the win showed how resilient the Badgers are.

This award enabled me to rewrite my PhD thesis into a monograph for publication. The resulting book was published by Cambridge University Press in May 2010 under the title Security and the Environment: Securitisation Theory and US Environmental Security Policy. In 2009 I was awarded a three year British Academy Post-doctoral fellowship (PDF/2008/103 grant amount £217,638.00) for my work on the ethics of securitization then under the title: 'Consequentialist evaluation of security for cooperative international society'. This work is still ongoing. I continue to have an interest in environmental and climate security. Together with Professor Richard A. Matthew (University of Irvine, California) we have just published a book on environmental security that aims to offer a comprehensive overview of the most important theoretical approaches to environmental security as well as some of the most important issues. In April 2012 I was appointed as a Birmingham Fellow in Conflict and Security. Teaching Undergraduate: POLS 319: Security in Europe: Actors, Crisis and Threats (formerly European Security) Postgraduate: G22: Security Studies Postgraduate supervision I am second PhD supervisor to Bruno Dalponte. Research My research on the ethics of securitization is concerned with two questions: (1) When, if ever, should we lift an issue out of normal/democratic politics, and treat it as a matter of emergency politics? (2) What exact form should such emergency politics ideally take? Despite the popularity of security studies, the ethics of securitisation - this move from normal/democratic to emergency politics- have thus far been ignored. Parts of my PhD thesis and subsequent book considered the ethics of securitisation relating to the natural environment. I argued that because human well-being is closely connected to the natural environment, the survival of the environment is for that reason morally required. In order to ensure this survival, governments and other relevant actors (e.g. the UN) will sometimes need to take recourse to emergency politics. With regards to the moral evaluation of security policies more generally, I am now working on developing a just securitization theory that would allow analysts and practitioners to morally evaluate securitizations both before and after they have occurred. Thus far my central idea has been to develop criteria that, provided they are fulfilled at the same time render a securitization morally right. For more detail on the criteria see my 'Can securitization theory be used in normative analysis? Towards a Just Securitization Theory' Security Dialogue,2011, 42 (4-5), 427-439 A first statement on just and unjust de-securitizations will form part of Contesting Security: Strategies and logics (edited by Thierry Balzacq) forthcoming 2013 with Routledge, PRIO series.

Gorgeous rug. Very rich, incredibly well-made. I have it in one of the guest bathrooms.
Very pretty. Bright colors. I bought 3 of these in different colors as area rugs to go between my "real" orientals, and they all are beautiful and blend very well in appearance and touch.
Very pleased with product and experience.
This is the first time I have ordered a rug online. It was a very positive experience. The rug is much nicer than I expected.
I bought the oval rug to throw underneath my baby grand piano. It looks nice and provides something for my feet to rest on under the pedals.
The blue is pretty dark, but these are very nice and I plan to be buying again from Rugs Direct.
This is the first time I purchased a rug online...I was very suspicious of buying a rug online in the first place, but especially at this price --- it is wonderful. The colors are very true to the picture...the feel is a tight weave but still extremely soft/cushy and easy to vacuum. Honestly, it looks better in comparison to the other Oriental rugs in my home that I paid much more for in the store (even when I bought them at "80% off"). Super fast shipping as well. All around, A+++
Lovely, different, and a great value.

WASHINGTON, April 4 (UPI) -- According to researchers at Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, antioxidants have a schizophrenic relationship with omega 6 -- sometimes protecting cells from omega 6 damage, other times promoting its adverse effects.
Found in many modern day cooking oils, omega 6 fatty acids have been shown in a number of animal studies to promote cancer formation and growth. At the same time, antioxidants have been heralded by nutritionists for their cancer-fighting properties.
Antioxidants are molecules that prevent oxidation of molecules. Oxidation chemical reactions create free radicals that can damage DNA in the human body, which scientists believe is linked with malignancy of the cells.
Researchers in Washington, D.C., decided to test different antioxidants to see how they interact with omega 6. The study revealed that not all antioxidants are created equal.
"They all have different properties," explained Fung-Lung Chung, lead of author of the study and a professor of oncology at Georgetown Lombardi. "They play different roles in various tissues. What we find in liver cancer may not hold true for other cancers."
The research of Chung and his colleagues looked into how exactly omega 6 fatty acids damage genes, and how antioxidant involve themselves in this interaction.
While the researchers found that antioxidant properties of vitamin E encouraged omega 6-related damage, antioxidants in green tea mitigated damages. Another antioxidant, alpha-lipoic acid, found in spinach and broccoli -- already proven to have other anti-cancer properties -- had no effect on omega 6.
"Our findings are beginning to shed light on why omega 6 fatty acids are believed to have negative health effects," Chung said, "but we have a long way to go before we can make definitive health claims on these antioxidants."

Resilience to Distinguishing Attacks on WG-7 Cipher and Their Generalizations
The stream cipher WG-7 is a lightweight variant of the well-known Welch-Gong (WG) stream cipher family, targeting for resource-constrained devices like RFID tags, smart cards, and wireless sensor nodes. Recently, a distinguishing attack was discovered against the stream cipher WG-7 by Orumiehchiha, Pieprzyk and Steinfeld. In this paper, the authors extend their work to a general distinguishing attack and suggest criteria to protect the WG stream cipher family from this attack. Their analysis shows that by properly choosing the minimal polynomial of the linear feedback shift register for a WG stream cipher, the general distinguishing attack can be easily thwarted.

I have also been wearing the same equipment since getting through the mage college quests. Certainly not as bad as Oblivion. I have noticed my character getting stronger against the competition.

With 'pen in flux, Meek could be key for Bucs
With 'pen in flux, Meek could be key for Bucs
BRADENTON, Fla. -- One month into Spring Training and 10 exhibitions into the Grapefruit League season, the Pirates' bullpen remains extremely in flux. Aside from its eventual overall composition, two major issues remain: Who will have the eighth inning, and which southpaw(s) will counter the National League's overabundance of left-handed power? The answer to both could yet be Evan Meek, who had the eighth-inning role in his All-Star season in 2010 when he was deadly against lefty hitters. But thus far, he has given few signs of being up for it.
Meek is trying to come back from the injuries that decimated his 2011 season. With less zip on his fastball and less movement on his breaking pitch, he has allowed five hits and four earned runs in 1 2/3 innings. As significantly, in Saturday's "B" game against Minnesota, Meek faced four straight left-handed hitters without retiring any of them.
"[His velocity] has been OK, certainly not what it was when Evan was an All-Star," said general manager Neal Huntington. "It's been 90-93 mph. He's a power guy. The breaking ball was crisper and firmer in 2010 than we've seen this spring. But he's still building arm strength."In 2010, Meek held lefty hitters to an average of .168, and even more impressively, a puny slugging average of .200. The leading setup alternative could be Juan Cruz, signed so late he isn't even yet on the 40-man roster. As for lefty relievers for more conventional matchups, the choices are Daniel Moskos, Rudy Owens, Jeff Locke, Tony Watson and Justin Wilson. "We'd love to have two. The way the league sets up, to use one in an early key situation and have one for later," said manager Clint Hurdle. "We're open-minded. We'll take the seven best guys who we think set up our bullpen. We're not going to stick a lefty out there just to have a lefty."

Kulu, December 25th, 2002.
'Jaa rahe ho tum'...asked a bubbly 12 year old girl warmly wrapped in her scarlet scarf, stood at the foot of the friendship peak.
'Jana padh raha hai, varna tujhe chod ke mein kahan jaata?' replied a 14 year old, smartly dressed boy. A sweet smile playing on his lips but at the same time his eyes wore a gloomy look.
'Jhoot bol rahe ho tum, humesha jhoot bolte ho. Tum chaho toh ruk sakte ho, kehdo Harish uncle se tum yahi Kulu main rehkar apni studies poori karoge.' She said facing him now, eyes pleading.
'Stupid, Dad ko apna business UK mai establish karne ka awesome chance mila hai. Woh yeh chance kaise chod sakte hai, mere bina kaise jayenge?' He replied in a lighter tone to cheer her up.
'Haan, par tum mere bina reh sakte ho na?' she asked him in an annoyed tone, eyes welling up.
Before he could reply his a little boy ran to him and said while trying to catch a breath '
'Bhaiya Avantika aunty is looking for you. Hurry up or else she'll eat you.'
'Arjun, look your Didi is angry with me. I don't know how to convince her, & I don't even have the time to do so. Or your aunty will eat me up' he chuckled.
He got down on his knees and pulled Arjun towards him and said '
'Arjun, would you promise me something today? I'll get you as many chocolates you want but make sure...that not a single tear flows out of her eyes.'
He said, staring intensely at her. A sweet smile started playing on her lips. She started saying something but was cut off by Arjun '
'I promise Bhaiya, but don't forget the chocolates okay!' Arjun said amusingly.
'Promise!' he replied.
He went towards her and held her chin up with his index finger, he playfully struck her nose and said '
'Merry Christmas hippo!'
Her eyes widened in shock and her jaws dropped, she ran after him to hit.
They ran for a while when Arjun reminded them of Avantika aunty.
They all walked down the snow covered path to reach the Gupta villa which was connected by the Kumar villa. Harish was loading the baggage into the car trunk while Avantika was bidding everyone goodbye.
Avantika & Harish hugging everyone, when Avantika saw her hiding in a corner...she went to her & in a single sec reasoned out the sadness in her eyes.
'Awww, my dear please don't cry. Look beta, we don't have any choice we have to go to UK. But I promise one thing once he completes his studies & uncle's business is set we will be right back.' Avantika said reassuring her.
The little girl flung her arms around Avantika and said '
'I love you...'
'Aww, I love you too dear.' Avantika replied.
It was time for them to go; they all got into the car and started. The whole Gupta family stood there waving them goodbyes, he looked out of the window and found her waving out to him from the balcony...with a smile on her lips & hope in her eyes! He quickly pulled out a camcorder from his backpack and stuck out his head again to capture this moment. He kept on recording till her scene blurred out of his vision.
12th December, 2012. Kulu.
'Pankhuriii...What the heck are you doing here? Don't you know we've got a flight to catch?' Neha remarked sarcastically.
'Ohoo Neha just chill, you go and get the baggage ready. I'll see you in a moment, okay? Now go...' Pankhuri replied pushing Neha away.
'Ah, you & your Friendship peak.' Neha muttered while her way down the foot of the peak.
Pankhuri stood at the foot of the snow-covered friendship peak, staring at the sky. Her eyes were gleaming with happiness, her face glowed with excitement. This had become a 'tradition' now, as she had been repeating this activity every now and then, before she had anything special to do she would first go to the friendship peak and spoke to thin air. If only someone knew that she was speaking to her best friend staring at the skies above. She thought that all those things she spoke would be conveyed to her friend by her Ramji.
'OMG, I can't believe it...I'm going to Mumbai. Finally! And the most awesome thing is Neha is getting married! My sweet little stupid Neha...Aww, my dear...I'm gonna miss her soo much!' she said pouting looking at the bluish Kulu sky.
'OMG', she looked at her watch and her eyes popped open in shock. 'I'm late...Oh Ramji help me. Maa is gonna bash me!' she said rushing down the snowy path to reach the Gupta Villa driveway. 2 SUVs were getting loaded with luggage by the servants while her Dadaji and Papa stood there discussing something, she walked towards them when she saw her Chachi, Maa & Neha coming out of the house muttering something. They had annoyed expressions as if scolding Neha, & that poor girl just stood listening to the ladies while keeping her head bent. She wondered what the matter was; she walked towards them and interrupted the ongoing conversation.
'Maa, what's the matter? Why are you both scolding the poor bride-to-be?' she said hugging Neha side-wise.
'PANKHURI!! Where the hell were you? Have you seen the time? We are already late & you are yet to be done with your packing. Oh Pankhuri what am I gonna do with you! You don't have any sense of responsibility.' Maa said with mixed expressions of anger, irritation and annoyance on her face.
'Uh Oh! Looks like we've entered the forbidden territory.' Pankhuri whispered in Neha's ear.
'What did you say?' Maa asked.
'Haan? Ah, no nothing...I was actually saying Maa that my packing is almost done, it's only my handbag that is to be packed. Just give me 2 mins and I'll be done with it.' Pankhuri replied trying to pacify her Maa.
'Uski koi zaroorat nahi hai, if you go now to pack we'll reach Mumbai in Neha's Baby shower!' Maa said sarcastically.
Neha blushed & excused herself while Pankhuri chuckled, much to Maa's annoyance.
'Here is your handbag, AND this time take good care of it unlike last time when you forgot it in a caf while our way back from Ujjain.' Maa said handing her the bag.
Punkhuri just rolled her eyes in amusement and followed the ladies to the SUVs. They reached the airport on time and got on to the flight.

The jury is still out on whether Firefox OS poses a legitimate threat to the mobile OS status-quo; many are writing it off for simply being too late to the party and others are quietly rooting for their favorite browser developer. Whilst Android, or any other mobile OS for that matter, obviously isn't going to be overtaken overnight, Firefox OS poses some interesting questions for the future of smartphone software.
As a big open-source fan I see bags of potential in the fledgling operating system, it's something which I believe could be a big changer in the mobile OS space. So, let's take an in-depth look at what Firefox OS brings to the table.
The Vision
Firefox OS isn't aiming for top spot competition with the Galaxy S4, HTC One, Nexus 4, or the iPhone 5. Instead, Mozilla wants to replace the plethora of aging handsets which still populate emerging markets with cheap, Internet-connected smartphones. You have to admit that the memories of using the web on an old Sony Ericsson or flip-cover Motorola seem horribly clumsy by modern standards.
[quote qtext="we bring web connectivity to people who cannot afford smartphones" qperson="" qsource="" qposition="center"]
By making use of web standards such as CSS, HTML5, and Java, Firefox aims to put the web at your fingertips regardless of your means or budget. Mozilla has clearly taken some inspiration from Chrome OS, loading applications through web browser technologies rather than through the main OS. You could consider some something akin to a "compatibility layer," where apps function independently of the operating system.
As always, open-source is at the core of what Firefox is aiming to do. Freeing developers from the restraints and demands placed on them by Apple and Microsoft, but without the fragmentation presented by Android.
[quote qtext="We use completely open standards and there's no proprietary software or technology involved." qperson="" qsource="" qposition="right"]
This opens the door for app developers to flock to the platform, and there are many already working in the HTML5 and Java space. This will no-doubt be a key factor in determining the success of Mozilla's operating system.
For a complete view of what Firefox OS aims to achieve, Darcy LaCouvee's first look at Firefox OS is worth a watch:[embed, width="645″]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=7QnIskIc3EY[/embed]
Firefox's greatest strength as a fledgling platform lies in its low price point for consumers and, just like Android, an absence of licensing costs for manufacturers. You may have heard that Firefox OS runs perfectly fine on just 256MB RAM and cheap 1GHz single-core CPUs – unlike Android Jelly Bean which requires at least 320MB RAM – which keeps compatible handsets cheap to manufacture.
The cheapest developer preview handset, named Keno, comes with a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 processor, 512MB RAM, with a 3.5-inch screen and support for common 3G networks. The price point; a very reasonable $119, and that was for the developer preview, the final version will likely ship with a little less memory to keep production costs down.
What's more, these technologies continue to be produced at lower and lower costs as manufacturing processes improve and yields increase. So the price is expected to come down even more over the next year or two.
There's tremendous potential for Firefox OS to capture a significant share of the budget market, providing that the hardware price is right. Of course Android software doesn't cost manufacturers anything either, but Firefox's appeal could come from a few of the projects finer details.
Firstly, as the interview put so elegantly:
[quote qtext="(we) don't have the problem that a very low end phone doesn't get newer versions of the operating system" qperson="" qsource="" qposition="center"]
By using web standards, new features can be easily implemented in much the same way as a Chrome, Firefox, or Safari browser update. This puts an end to the dreaded hardware fragmentation which plagues budget devices.
Secondly, as already mentioned, Firefox OS will run apps built from web-based languages like HTML5 or Java, which is the key to this flexibility. Essentially the idea is that, as long as your phone is good enough to run these web APIs you won't have to worry so much about changes to your operating system or hardware specifications. Apps and features can be created and updated to work with existing web technologies, which aren't particularly hardware- or OS-dependent.
There will obviously be performance differences between individual hardware setups, but, with low-end hardware, gaming or 3D apps aren't too important. Instead, consumers are more interested in Internet and social functionality, rather than 4k video output.
Whilst it might seem problematic to base a handset around the web, especially when coverage can be temperamental, Firefox OS allows for app installations too. Your favourite apps will still work offline, which is massively important when it comes to roaming, and will even work with Android handsets too.
Currently, consumers in emerging markets are stuck with older Android handsets, many of them still on Gingerbread – some are on even older versions like Froyo – and even more limited OSs like Nokia's Symbian. Many of these platforms are out of date, and some are no longer supported by app developers. With Jelly Bean or iOS features and compatible software out of reach, there's room and a real need for cheap, internet accessable handsets.
Web applications, the way of the future?
This is where I feel Firefox OS has the potential for the biggest impact. As we've already discussed, Mozilla has the potential to capture a massive installation base and with it comes software developers eager to peddle their wares to a growing platform.
Picture, for a moment, your day to day smartphone uses. Chances are that your work needs consist of email checking, maybe an Office suite, and web access. Home use probably isn't that different, Internet access for streaming video, email, social networking, you get the picture. Most of these activities take place, or could be done, using your browser, we only use dedicated apps because they are faster and usually a bit easier to use than mobile web pages.
Having said that, quite a few of us probably already use plenty of web pages which operate in the same way as a traditional application too, and have been gradually moving away from dedicated applications over the past few years. I'm currently typing this using Google Docs rather than Office, I've used web-based email clients for years, and I'm happily using Spotify for Chrome for music.
We've already seen some more advanced uses of this sort of HTML5 development with Google's Chrome OS, which now has large range of apps developed for its browser based platform. Firefox OS should be able to achieve a similar result, once multiple platforms begin using similar development standards it could start a change reaction which could attract even more developers.
The real benefit of a move towards an HTML5 or Java standard is that apps will be compatible across various operating systems, in the same way that websites work regardless of whether you're viewing them on Android, iOS, or Windows. A change in focus like that would mark a pretty dramatic shift in software development, and would be a great benefit to developers and consumers alike.

Main Cottage Grove post office to be closed; services would shift to second facility
The U.S. Postal Service plans to close its main Cottage Grove post office and shift all operations to its second facility in town.
The plan likely means that within several months customers will no longer be able to use the post office at 7130 East Point Douglas Road. Instead, the postal service will only operate out of its annex at 7523 95th St., about three miles away on the west side of Highway 61.
All customer service operations will move to the annex, including the 332 post office boxes currently rented at the main post office.
Postal service officials said closing one of its Cottage Grove buildings is a reflection of cost-cutting move occurring nationwide as the mail service's revenue and usage drop. The postal service lost $8.5 billion last year.
In Cottage Grove alone, postal service revenue dropped 12 percent from 2008 to 2010, and sales are down 6 percent so far this year, said Garry Mattox, of the Postal Service's western facility service office. Mattox briefed the Cottage Grove City Council on the postal service's plans Wednesday.
"We need to adjust our infrastructure to meet the declining mail volumes," Mattox said. "We can't afford to maintain both (facilities)."
A 60-day period for public input on the change started Wednesday, but postal service officials acknowledged they are moving forward with the consolidation plan. The transition is expected to take several months, in part because the annex must be renovated to include a customer service window.
Available space was a primary factor in planning to close the main post office, rather than moving all operations there and closing the annex, officials said.
The postal service admitted the change will be difficult for customers accustomed to using the main post office just off 80th Street.
"People get used to doing things in a certain way and we know we're asking them to change and that's not always easy," said postal service spokesman Pete Nowacki. "We're trying to expand access to our goods and services in other ways, too."
For instance, Nowacki said, people can purchase stamps at 10 locations within 5 miles of the main Cottage Grove post office. They include grocery stores and ATM machines.
Cottage Grove is not alone in experiencing post office consolidation. The postal service also plans to close a downtown Northfield, Minn., post office and shift operations to another facility in Northfield. That plan has drawn strong objections from the community and led to petition efforts to save the downtown location.
See the upcoming print edition of the Bulletin for more details on the postal service plan.

Colorado Springs School District 11 and its teachers have tentatively agreed on a contract for the 2011-12 school year.
Details of the tentative agreement were not released late Saturday when the deal was announced in a joint statement between District 11 and the Colorado Springs Education Association, which represents the district's teachers.
Negotiators were kept busy with the longest revision of the contract in 16 years. All 19 articles of the master agreement were up for negotiation, including salary and benefits, teaching conditions and open bargaining sessions.
The tentative deal brings the district closer to ending a contentious contract battle fraught with haggling over whether to open negotiations to the public — a topic that spurred protests and a lawsuit.
The conservative group Americans for Prosperity asked the board to open negotiating sessions to the public in February — a move initially opposed by the teachers union, which felt caught off-guard by the demand.
Americans for Prosperity pushed the board to boycott negotiations and staged a protest in March. Later that month, a parent sued the district claiming it had failed to hold a required a public meeting at the beginning of the negotiations.
In response, a public session was held on April 15, drawing about 65 people who stayed for parts of the more than 11-hour negotiating session.
The district's board of education and teachers still must approve the new contract.
