The Pyatyorka card available to first-year students this NovemberNews archive
The Moscow Department of Transport was commissioned by mayor Sergei Sobyanin to create the Pyatoyorka transport card – «pyatyorka» means "five" in Russian – for first-year students. The cards were distributed at Moscow institutions of higher education in October for use in November.
The Pyatyorka card allows the cardholders freely use city public transport during November 2013. Passengers must produce their first-year student cards in case their tickets are checked.
Deputy mayor and head of the Moscow Department of Transport Maksim Liksutov commented: "The Pyatyorka electronic card is not just a gift but a message to first-year students from Moscow city government. We want to wish them success and hard work during the year, and give them a chance to see for themselves the advantages of the electronic transport card. For both the students and the cards there are wide new possibilities opening!"
From December 1st the Pyatyorka card will work like a typical Troika transport card, a modern carrier for all forms of tickets.
Troika works just as well for single rides on the Metro and surface transport as it does for permanent transport passes. It's now possible to add any paper ticket from the current fare menu and any suburban rail pass to the card. Passengers only need to choose the best pass or ticket for them and go to the proper ticket office.
Passengers have evaluated the convenience of Troika. From September 20th to October 28th more than 135,000 cards were sold. And since its start more than 635,000 cards have been sold. The Troika card gets validated more than 450,000 times a day.

Soleil Personal Outdoor Shade is rated out of 5 by 30.
Rated 5 out of 5 by liebshun from A Great Idea I'm very happy with this umbrella. Very easy to move around. My only problem is I can't tilt it. I was informed that it would be a bit stiff the first time. I am, however, still not able to tilt it. Otherwise, a thumbs up for this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by siza from soleil personal outdoor shade Excellent product with strong hardware and easy assembly Wish the umbrella had a tying belt to protect it from being blown by wind even when closed i used a ribbon for the purpose

Rated 5 out of 5 by Desismom from fabulous I have lived in 3 different NYC apartments for over 20 years. Each one has had a south facing balcony un-usable the entire summer. I've shopped tirelessly on line for an umbrella small enough for a shallow area to no avail. Then I found Frontgate. Hands down "the best item I've ever purchased". The personal umbrella is BRILLIANT! I've used my balcony more this season than all the previous years combined. Thanks for a great product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by PalmSprings15 from Excellent shade I just finished purchasing my second personal shade. It is well made, has good weight and the Palm Springs dust made me glad I ordered the bronze color (dust just shakes off). Great product when the wind comes up and you don't have worry about it blowing away. The tilt function works well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BooBug from MY Shade I absolutely adore my Soleil Personal Outdoor Shade! It is easy to move from place to place, easy to adjust and just the right size to keep me partially or totally shaded. I can enjoy the deck without needing to put up the 11ft umbrella. This was a great investment and I would recommend it to anyone looking for individual shade. The tilt function was stiff at first. The comments I read and the information that came with the umbrella helped me thought that first adjustment and it was a breeze after that!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by onthebay from Love this umbrella! Everyone asks where we purchased our personal umbrellas when they visit our home. Non-obtrusive, easy to pull out and put away. Provides just the shade you need to protect face and chest while lounging by the pool. Very attractive. Very good quality. Worth the money. Sturdy base keeps it in place. Highly recommend. Have had mine for 4 summers now.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ziggy3339 from Personal outdoor shade Live in SW Florida where the sun is unforgiving. Purchased this as gift for the hubs. To my surprise, he really loves it. He enjoys sitting by the pool at the end of his day with a cold beer. He's bald & I've bought him every hat imaginable but "forgets" to take most (except ball caps ). This solves the at home dilemma. He can swim, go sit & now doesn't have to wear a hat at all! This thing is very easy to position (or reposition) on wheels. It's easy to open & close. The Sumbrella fabric is on tight . We can watch the sunrise & sunsets without having to rush inside because its glaring at us. One hand positions it ! This is a winner & don't believe it's sold anywhere else. We may get more. Good investment.

Rated 5 out of 5 by IdahoLady from Perfect Personal Shade So easy to use. Not only is this the perfect solution for personal shade (it fits nicely on my deck) but it is made well. I roll it where I need it then choose the right height and angle of the umbrella for any sun direction.
Date published: 2013-07-08
Is a replacement umbrella available without also ordering the base?
Yes, we do have shades available. We encourage you to call us at 1-800-537-8484 as we have limited colors available and the shade itself can not be purchased through our website.

Does this provide shade for lying on a lounge chair?
Very interested in this. One photo shows woman sitting on lounge chair nicely shaded but what about if lying down on the lounge chair?
The Soleil Personal Outdoor Shade provides 10 square feet of shade that moves with the sun
Date published: 2014-05-23
Will this umbrella provide enough shade for 2 people sitting at a bistro-sized table?
Thank you for your interest in Frontgate. The Soleil Personal Outdoor Shade is 10 square feet of shade. The dimensions are 34-3/4"W x 36-1/2"D x 53-1/2-78"H. This is intended for one person's use, but could be used over a small table.
Date published: 2014-04-04
Is this waterproof - like for rain ?
Thank you for your interest in Frontgate. The Soleil Personal Outdoor Shade has a Sunbrella canopy, so it can be exposed to rain without damaging the product. Due to the size of the shade, it would not be practical to use as an umbrella.

A movie musician who is also a bum in his own right, but blessed with a beautiful girlfriend thought that he had it made. He's successful, and a beautiful actress as a girlfriend, the sex is nice as far as he knows…
Until she decided to dump him. For a hippie. A famous hippie though. He's a famous musician but a sex maniac hippie nonetheless.
That totally crashed his life. He wallowed. Never left his pad for weeks. Nothing that his friend does can get him out. Lastly, they managed to coax him to go for a holiday in hawaii. And he went over there and guess who's also over there? His girlfriend Sarah! Oh that can't be good. Now it looks like he's stalking her. Which is what he did eventually because he can't let her out of his mind.
But luckily, help in the form of a beautiful front desk personnel of the hotel appears. She's gorgeous. I remembered her playing the dumb girl in 'That 70s Show'.
She managed to stole his heart and he began to compare her with Sarah. she looks like the real deal here. They hit it off. I wonder whether things like this happens in al life. I mean, how many potential men in needs that the front desk girl would meet? Whether any of those men would make a pass at her? And whether she would respond? Don't you think that a girl like that would have a barrier up for guys like this? Nevermind…
So he finds that he can now starts forgetting Sarah now. Hence, the name of the movie.
But the new man in Sarah's life is a total dick… She soon grows tired of her and suddenly Sarah realized that she made the wrong judgment on the guy and she wanted back with our hero. Oh oh, a conundrum here for our man….
But in the end, the right girl wins.
Hawaii looks nice, as always. It's been portrayed as heaven on earth. I wonder whether I would have the chance to go there. Seriously I don't remember any Malaysian going oer there. Unless if they go in secret. The place seems like a place that you wouldn't want anybody else to find out that you went there…..

Unanswered: Calling external routines from PL/SQL - strings!
I have a simple C dll function which takes for input two strings, and outputs the concatenation of those two strings:
char* mycfunc(char *x, char *y)
I've tested using this dll from another C program, and it works fine.
I created the Oracle library that references this dll. I also created the PL/SQL function that calls the external dll function. However, when I try to use this new PL/SQL function, I get back garbage:
select func('Hi','There') from dual;
However, I can get this to work if my dll does NOT return anything, and I use 3 parameters (one for the output). Then I create a PL/SQL procedure instead of function. Then I can say this:
-- print out NEWSTRING, which is the concatenation
BUT, I really need this to run as a function. I think the problem may stem from the fact that oracle has no varchar2 of a certain length to store the output to?
Anyway, this explanation may be a little sparse, but any ideas are appreciated. BTW, I can get PL/SQL functions to work with integers fine.

here are a couple of possible solutions
1) use data type CHAR
2) write results to a file & suck the results in via UTL_FILE

You need to ensure your DLL returns the correct type. A 'C' definition of a string, or indeed of a char* is entirely different to an Oracle definition of a string (ie, how it is stored in memory). Check the Oracle docs for how it expects a 'C' string to be returned, and your particular compiler to ensure there is no under the hood 'trickery' going on.
Delphi code within the DLL.
function GetConfig: PChar; cdecl;
PChar, means pointer to a null terminated string, CDecl, means 'C' calling convention. There are other directives in the code to disable Delphi memory/string management etc, ie to make it conform to standard C conventions.
On the Oracle side, the EXTPROC call is
FUNCTION GetCfg RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
NAME "GetConfig"
Check the Oracle docs and your compiler docs to ensure you get an exact match on calling convention.
Ensure Oracle isn't trying to a free the memory already free'd by your DLL and that your DLL doesn't expect Oracle to free it while Oracle expects the DLL to free it.
I'm afraid it's a case of pouring over the Oracle docs on one side, and your compiler docs on the other. Once you have it right though, it is very rewarding. You have the power of any imaginable 'C' code on the host, running within your PL/SQL. Admittedly, you also have the power to completely screw up the server hosting Oracle, but that can be fun too :-)
BillPlease don't email me directly with questions. I've probably just got home from the pub and cannot guarantee the sanity of my answers. In fact, I can't believe I actually made it home.

- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Grate the sweet potatoes coarsely. In a separate bowl mix the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cayenne pepper, curry powder, cumin, and salt and pepper. Add the eggs and just enough milk to the dry ingredients to make a stiff batter. Add the potatoes and mix. The batter should be moist but not runny; if too stiff, add more milk.

Makes 16 three-inch pancakes.

Un des plus étoffés en Californie, plusieurs européennes en plus des locales. De plus, le bar adjacent 110 & Bellevue, doit détenir la palme des meilleurs bars d'épicerie.
devman171 (164) Annapolis , Maryland | November 5, 2014
solid regional craft beer selection in the coolers, also a shelf of bombers, solid
Prufrockstar (83) Moscow, Idaho | September 23, 2014
Mega Whole Foods with a bar. WTF. Also, wish my whole foods had a bar. Bottle selection seems pretty reasonable (despite a few really old IPAs on the shelves). Bar was great, with awesome prices. Ambiance was Whole Foods, but better because, you know, it has a bar.
brokensail (1366) Dublin, California | January 23, 2014
This place is absolutely enormous. Holy crap. Multi-story subterranean parking garage and two stories of Whole Paycheck goods and services. Beer is located upstairs and there are a large number of bottles kept cold as well as plenty of shelf space. Big selection of local beers from places like Monkish, Strand, San Diego breweries, stuff from the Bay Area...plenty of UK and Belgian imports, stuff from Japan, Germany... Pretty solid selection and the prices are decent--typical Whole Foods. Highly recommend this place.
GT (672) San Diego, California | November 30, 2013
Holy cow, the most intense Whole Foods I've ever been to- two stories- huge selection and massive food court. Really good hot and cold bar food. Selection is massive, but as stated a lot of hoppy fridged stuff is six pack only. Lots of weird UK, German, Belgian, Danish beers with harder to find stuff. Nothing was super rare, but many ticks to be had here. The shelf beers across from the fridge shelves were actually pretty cold from the spillover. Interesting set up.
bytemesis (1118) Sunnyvale, California | April 17, 2013
Impressive selection of locals in bombers, plus some german and belgian beers. A little light on the true rarities as compared to some whole foods, but the wide selection of locals makes up for it.
PotjeBier (13) Amsterdam, Netherlands | January 23, 2013| Updated December 3, 2016
Literally hundreds of different craft beers, a much better selection than the Foothills branch. Lots of locals, but also from anywhere in the World. As at any WF you can take individual bottles from sixpacks. I was there shortly after Hangar 24's Pugachev's Cobra was released. It wasn't on the shelves, but I asked for it and the beerguy told me they received 1 box and would sell it only to people who asked for it. He had to run to the storage to get it for me. Now that's what I call good service. Edit - visited Sept. 2015, no breaking of sixpacks anymore, what a loss. Definitely lost some points there.
Iphonephan (410) Jackson Hole/McLean, Virginia | October 2, 2012| Updated October 6, 2012
An extensive selection of US and Belgian beers, including some hard to find beers (e.g. de Struise Pannepot). Also some interesting beers on tap ( e.g. great divide choc yeti). One disappointment was that many of the American beers were only sold in full six packs of 12 oz bottles. Others were available only in large (22 oz + bottles), making it harder to sample many beers.
nicksixsix (21) California | July 16, 2011| Updated October 27, 2011
By far the raddest selection of beer around. David the beer guy is super awesome even though he has a long greasy mop for hair and rarely changes his clothes. Love the beer garden IN the store... drink beer whilst shopping for groceries? yes please! Yes, the sweetest and bestest selection of beer is also the hippest and smartest place to buy groceries? AWESOME. and they have PTE in stock like 97% of the time. cool.
breaks808 (13) California | February 28, 2011
This place really tries to get good beer for their customers. Better selection than bevmo. Some rare stuff from time to time. Overall a good store to buy some beer.

While homeowners rarely see them coming, home emergencies do happen. If something unexpected happens in your Fredericksburg home, it helps to know who to call. This article will highlight some of the emergencies that could potentially happen to your home here in Fredericksburg, and what you should do if those emergency situations should ever occur within your home.
Emergency Critter Situations
Most of the time, pests pose a nuisance to your house but not a true emergency. Pests like mice, roaches, and termites can make for an unpleasant stay in your Fredericksburg home, but often these creatures do not need to be exterminated same-day: you can schedule an exterminator to come to your house and take care of the problem a few days down the road (though, of course, sooner is always better). With some animals, though, it is necessary to get them out of your house as soon as you spot them. Not that they necessarily pose an immediate danger, but getting rid of them before going to sleep is essential for your well-being. This is certainly the case with bats, who can make a good night's sleep a very tall order indeed. Some animals, such as snakes and bears, do pose a true threat. While these visitors aren't as common in Fredericksburg, they can show up. In this case it is best to call animal control services as soon as you spot these unwelcome guests.
Plumbing Emergencies In Fredericksburg
Plumbing emergencies can happen here in Fredericksburg as well: unfortunately broken pipes, leaks, and sewer line breaks are all-too-common. Fortunately, there are many Fredericksburg emergency plumbing services companies that you can call in case any of these emergencies were to happen. These emergency service providers can provide last-minute, same-day service so that you can get your plumbing emergency taken care of before it becomes a true plumbing disaster. It is best to call these emergency plumbing service providers as soon as possible, before your home sustains lasting damage.
Power Outages
Power outages can happen here in Fredericksburg, especially during the summer months, when the electrical grid is heavily strained. While these outages often only last for a few minutes and amount to minor nuisances (forcing you to reset your digital clocks and miss your favorite TV programs), longer blackouts can occur. If you find yourself in an emergency situation where power is out for an extended period of time, there are some steps that you can take to stay safe and comfortable. For one, use flashlights or other battery-powered lighting devices at night, do not walk around in the dark. You should also put any perishable foods on ice, so that they do not spoil. You may be tempted to leave the house, but be careful, if the outage is widespread street lamps and traffic lights may be out, increasing the risk of accidents. Finally, be sure to unplug as many devices as you can while the power is out, because when the power comes back on your appliances may be damaged by power surges.

You love her, right tough guy? You've been spending a lot of time with her and it's undeniable – you know she's the one for you and she seems to be equally into you. I'm going to give you three sure fire signs below but also ask you proceed with caution because the "falling" part of falling in love can be pretty dangerous if you try to sprint instead of run a marathon.
So, you'll get 3 signs of falling in love below along with some words of caution from the dating relationship education course I teach (called THE SYSTEM) so you don't blow it with her!
#1: You Think About Her All The Time
I got the chicken dance song stuck in my head the other day – along with the images of people flapping their arms – not a fun thing to have on auto-repeat. Now in your case I'm sure that it's her smile, perfume, beautiful hair, the skirt she wore when you picked her up Saturday that are stuck in your head.
Awesome, right? You're just staring away at that spreadsheet you should have been working on for the last 20 minutes and the blinking cursor represents her dancing (yeah, you're gone!)
Word of caution from THE SYSTEM: It's great to feel this way but you'll blow it if you stay in constant contact with her. You know how you're greatly anticipating the next date with her? She should be doing the same thing – so don't short circuit that process by getting in her face by trying to see her every day or texting her all day long. Space is what you need so that both of your feelings grow.
#2: She's The Only One You See Even In A Crowded Room There are plenty of people around you when you're out but as far as you're concerned she's real and in full color and they're vague black and white shadows. It's unbelievable that you could exclude everything else in your head besides her – but here you are!
Word of caution from THE SYSTEM: If you two are in love you might go the distance – I know your hormones and the newness of everything has kicked in but all of this is the opening gun to the NYC Marathon and not an Olympic 100 M dash – so pace yourself and be careful not to try to exclude everything else when out with her. It's natural to want her all to yourself because all you could think of was her all week long and now that she's here you want 100% – but it's not realistic – at some point you two will settle into a relationship that has time with friends, time apart and of course your time together. All I'm saying is not to go too over the top when your hormones are in Mexican Jumping Bean mode so you don't scare her off.
#3: Her Kiss Vibrates Through You This requires no explanation – you might be able to bench 250 but when she locks lips with you this 110# woman has you exactly where she wants you – or at least that's what your brain is telling you! All I know is a variation of "YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT" pulsates from your head to your toes.
Word of caution from THE SYSTEM: As Jodeci once said in the great song "Stay" she feels so sexy and so good – and that's cool – as long as you keep that feeling to yourself. It was okay for Jodeci to sing it and make millions but it's not okay for you to utter it and blow it with her.
YOUR ACTIONS with her and not you saying a bunch of stuff is what's going to keep her feelings (INTEREST LEVEL) for you high. The biggest mistake guys in love make is to blurt out a bunch of stuff about how into her they are and even use the "L" word and tell her they love her. It's ANTI-CHALLENGE and while you think you're scoring points with her all your doing is stamping down the ability for her to fall for you more deeply.
Listen – she is into you already – keep treating her well via what you do instead of what you say and you'll be much further ahead.
If you want more dating advice that will coach you about the concept of CHALLENGE and other things that will get her way more in love with you, then take an INSTANT 7-day FREE trial to my HYPER-POPULAR Doc Love Club. When you take that 7-day FREE Trial you'll have access to over 90 hours of audio and more articles like this but for members only! As a special BONUS I'll give you 8 FREE CHAPTERS to my SYSTEM AUDIO BOOKas a thanks for test driving The Doc Love Club.
What do YOU think? Don't be shy – talk to me below.

Minister also said that many states and people feel we have seen deterioration in education quality
Prakash Javadekar is set to initiate serious reforms in the education sector, after 100 days of taking over as HRD ministry. The HRD minister says he plans amendments to the UPA-era Right to Education Act and will re-examine the issue of foreign universities.
Talking about the position on the No-detention policy and scraping of Right to Education, he said, "Many states and people feel we have seen deterioration in education quality because in the RTE Act there was no mention of learning outcomes."
"There is continuous evaluation happening on ground in many schools, then there is no learning happening, there is no examination and then there is no detention- so ultimately it has affected our education system. So on learning outcomes there is unanimity," he said.
"I will definitely bring learning outcomes as part of RTE rules. Now as far as No detention is concerned, let CABE (Central Advisory Board of Education) take a call. Essentially it is a state issue. What we need to do is to see how to allow them if they want to do something," added Javadekar.
Taking more on the issue, he said, "Amendment to the RTE Act can be done in two ways- one is that the Centre brings amendment to do away with that or Centre brings in amendment to allow states to take their call on No-Detention."

Ingmar Bergman
In college, I saw my first Ingmar Bergman films, The Seventh Seal and Wild Strawberries, all of which coincided predictably with my Woody Allen love at that time (almost 30 years ago!). But the film of his I would want to watch again tonight would be Smiles of a Summer Night.
Thank goodness for Netflix.
Oh, and I know I have been terribly remiss with blogging, and I'll likely pick it up again a little closer to when school starts. I'll be off to Idaho soon, my annual trip west to my "homeland," with Carson. Until then . . . .

Sterling on track
A big favourite of mine is Handsworth-born Donna Sterling, who was Steel Pulse's backing singer for five years before the birth of her second child in 2004. She's got a wonderful bubbly personality, bags of energy and of course, has a super voice and vocal range. Her grounding in the cabaret circuit gave her the experience of performing in public before she joined Steel Pulse, sharing backing vocal duties with Sylvia Tella. Tella left in 2000 and Donna carried the solo supporting role until her departure in 2004. Since then, she took some time off before returning to fine tune her voice in the Midlands' jazz and blues circuit as a vocalist with bands like Andy Hamilton & The Blue Notes, Headrocka and her brother's outfit, David Lloyd Henry's Flat Five Band. In recent months, she's again been working with Selwyn Brown from Steel Pulse on her own project, an album of already-written tracks in a variety of moods from reggae to blues to RnB to jazz, which she is hoping will come to fruition sometime next year. In the meantime, she's going to test the water with two singles around Christmas time, including a cover of Billie Holiday's God Bless The Child. In addition, she recently linked up with Steel Pulse again to help out on backing vocals for their Vote Barack song, which was released to coincide with the US presidential elections, and may help out again in the future. The future is something that Donna is looking forward to, she's feeling very excited about recent developments and is looking for the collaboration with her brother and Selwyn to take her to the next chapter of her musical journey. Keep up to date on Donna's progress here.

The stage is set for the Pac-12 title game and west coast fans should get to see a pretty good match-up from two of the league's top squads.
The Oregon Ducks are headed to the championship contest and will look to dethrone the conference's regular season winner, UCLA.
The Bruins are virtually clicking at the right time it seems, locking up a regular season title late last week and now pressing forward to the conference title game. A tournament championship could be a huge boost for head coach Ben Howland and the potential that this UCLA squad has in the NCAA Tournament.
The star power of this young UCLA squad could be destined to put on a show in the Big Dance, if they can get hot and stay hot, but once again that could rely on taking care of business within the Pac-12 championship game on Saturday night.
As for the Ducks however, a well-balanced attack makes them a tough squad to match-up against. A solid front court paces the way, but this team has more than enough players who are capable of balancing their offensive attack across the board.
These two teams met only once during the regular season, with Oregon taking care of UCLA on the road at Pauley Pavilion. It was certainly an impressive win for the Ducks, but don't expect Howland and the Bruins to not be ready with adjustments in this game.
West coast basketball has had its resurgence this season and this Pac-12 title game should certainly be one that college basketball fans across the country do not want to miss.

Think of your favorite pair of jeans. You've probably owned too many pairs to count, but Is there one specific pair that pops into your mind instantly when you think "favorite"? You've probably owned them for a while. Maybe it's a pair that are long gone and you've yet to find a replacement. You've had quite a relationship with them. You used to wear them out on date night, but then they became your go to when you just wanted to be comfy. You could do anything in them. You could grab a book and sink down into the couch for hours. Or you could just as easily play a game of football in the backyard. They just felt like a part of you.
How do you get that feeling of oneness with a pair of jeans? The key is they conform to you. A great pair of jeans supports where you want support. They bend where you need to bend. They are strong, but gentle. They're durable, yet flexible. We've all had ill-fitting clothing and it drives us crazy. If there is pressure or discomfort when you move, the garment will eventually give out. It never gets better because it's not as giving, and after a couple uses, the unforgiving garment ends up either in the trash or best case scenario on its way to a donation box. A tree can grow right through a car and remain healthy, but a car cannot drive through a tree and remain unscathed. HINT # 1: Your body is NOT going to conform to the jeans!
So Ol' Blue can teach us a spiritual lesson. There is a reality that one who remains flexible outlasts the rigid hardened one. When it comes to our relationship with God, either you have to conform to Him, or He has to conform to you. HINT # 2: God is NOT going to conform to you. And if we persist in that unrealistic expectation, it will not only be uncomfortable, but something will eventually have to give.
On the flip side, if we become more like Ol' Blue, pliable in the hands of our Maker, he begins to mold us. We take on His shape. His nature. His likeness. We work when He desires to us to work. We rest when He desires to rest. We learn to bend, run, and be still all at His pleasure rather than our own. And in all these things we find an irreplaceable comfort in that He cares for us and He will not put us through anything we cannot hold up under.
Romans 12:2, Paul tells us "..do not conform to the pattern of the world, but to be transformed by the renewing of our mind." Simply put, we can either rigidly hold to the ways of the world, or we can soften, become pliable, and be transformed into the likeness of Christ.

Review for Park Place Bodywerks Auto Body and Collision Repair Center
Prasad S. on 03/29/2011
Prasad said they returned the vehicle to him with a significant defect, it was not a very good job, he had to leave it there longer, and he had to rent a vehicle for the extra time. The driver's door made a noise when it was closed, and the door was shaking. He paid so much money for this repair, so he was very upset they told him it was ready but it was incomplete. He left it there a few more days. The door had been replaced, and after they worked on it some more, it still wasn't 100 percent. It still shakes a little when it is closed, and they didn't fix it properly at all. Time wasn't a factor, and he left it there longer, but it was there 3 weeks and he spent $9,000. He didn't understand why they were trying to return it in that condition. He probably wouldn't recommend them because of what he went through, and maybe they'd recommend another place. It's a minor thing and anybody could fix it. It was recommended he go elsewhere, but he bought his vehicle from the affiliated dealer, he brings his vehicle for service, they do a good job, he trusted them. Prasad wasn't quite sure this business got the correct door. He thinks that dampening materials may be what's missing, because that prevents noise. They need to go to Mercedes to get the right door, or get the dampening material.

I am a firm believer in all things wool. This bralette is no exception. I am 34c and got size M which is just so comfy. If i had larger boobs i dont think this would support very well, but for my boobs i can wear this hiking, around town, in dresses etc. I wouldnt go bouncing on a trampoline and expect super support but i love it for less active activities. climbing, walking, hiking, biking, loafing, working, ooooo, its just so comfy. No itchy tags or cumbersome clasps. Like wool, after excessive use it doesnt stink.
Hi Ingrid,
Thanks so much for taking the time to review your Icebreaker Siren Bra. We are so pleased you're a merino lover and that this bra is doing all it was designed to do! Our favorite feature is the no-stink aspect as well. Please reach out to the Gearhead team if you ever have any Icebreaker questions, they are all experts.
Have a great day and thanks again,
Sydney Lambert
Icebreaker Merino
Super Comfortable
The fabric on this bra is great! It is very comfortable and stays in place. I feel that I usually have to adjust or move around my straps but have had no problems with this
great material
I love the material but the cups just are not flattering
Super comfortable
This is very comfortable for a casual bra. I only dropped it down a star because I think that it gets a bit hot in summer months.
Not a great fit
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs large
- Size Bought: Medium
I have a couple of the Siren sports bras and love them, so I gave this one a shot. Bought the same size (M--I'm a 36C) and while this fit fine in the band, the cups were no bueno. There was extra fabric puckered up at the top by the straps, like the cups were too big. Did not like. :/
Hey Cynthia,
Sorry to hear that this bra wasn't just right for you. Not sure if you're still in the market for a great bra, but the Sprite Racebrack or the Tiki bra are both great options. Happy to answer any questions regarding fit!
Simply Wonderful
Simple design, easily adjustable and I love the wool blend fabric. Way comfortable.
Form and Function.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This was purchased for a multi-month backpacking trip on foot in hostels and camping. It was my favorite one. The fit is nice as it still gives you some form as opposed to a shelf bra. I ordered a small that fit well and I'm a 36A/34B. I washed it when I could but never had a problem with it. It was comfortable even with my pack on for hours. I was comfortable during fly fishing and chopping wood too, no restrictions. I never felt it was too thin to nip out through cloths either. I bought it in black.
I Love It
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I had two of these bras for a two month backpacking trip and they worked wonderfully. They don't get as stinky as regular bras, because of the wool, and they fit really well. They are also so comfortable you forget you're wearing them. Being a huge fan of comfort means that was very important to me.
Nice bra-- good to find one that's wool
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: Runs small
I originally ordered this bra in a size Small, as I'm right on the edge of small and medium (I'm a 34B, with a 35- 36 inch bust). It was too small-- the band was very tight and I felt like I was spilling out of the cups a bit. Returned it for a medium, which fits MUCH better-- but I really don't like the very wide, tight chest band. I will be removing it and replacing it with a 1/4" wide elastic, and then the bra will be perfect for me.
I do really like that this bra is a pullover-- no uncomfortable, narrow, poky hook-and-eye thing in the back-- and that its design leaves the center of your chest entirely exposed-- it's much cooler than a sports bra because of that.
hot as balls...
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought this for sleeping in my insanely hot apartment. It's wonderful. It's comfortable enough for sleeping and stays very cool throughout the night. My only qualm is with the cup size. I'm a 38 C and the XL fits my back and shoulders very well but, I get a little double boob. Be warned.
Super comfy
My wife's review: Great little bra! Fits nicely and the soft wool is great. It is well made and seems like it will wear well for a long time.

It's Official: Serious Crimes Down for Eighth Consecutive Year
October 16, 2000
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has released its final figures on serious crime in 1999. Incidents of murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, larceny, vehicle theft and arson declined 7 percent from 1998 -- the 8th consecutive year that rates have dropped.
- The FBI reported a total of 1.4 million violent crimes in the U.S. last year, as well as 10.2 million property crimes.
- Fifty percent of the violent crimes resulted in arrests -- but only an 18 percent clearance rate for property crimes.
- An estimated 14 million people were arrested last year for both violent and property crimes -- 5 percent fewer than the previous year.
- Forty-five percent of those arrested were under the age of 25, and 17 percent were under the age of 18.
The number of violent crimes last year was 20 percent below the 1995 figure and 21 percent less than 1990 totals. The number of property crimes in 1999 was 15 percent below the 1995 total, and 19 percent fewer than 1990 levels.

Tps Haiti
January 16, 2010 by USA Post
Tps Haiti:Bowing to pressure from Congress, the Obama administration said Friday that tens of thousands of Haitian immigrants who are in the United States illegally will be allowed to stay for the next year and a half. That means that none will be deported to their devastated homeland for now. But any Haitians who attempt to flee to the U.S. will be sent back.
Homeland Secretary Janet Napolitano told reporters in a conference call that all Haitians in the U.S. who were facing deportation before Tuesday's earthquake struck Haiti are being given legal status for the time being. Just like nationals from other nations struck by catastrophe have in the past, these Haitians will be allowed to register for what's known as Temporary Protected Status, or TPS. Napolitano called it a sort of "time out" for a large number of Haitians who might otherwise be deported:
"I've seen estimates of between 100,000 to 200,000 Haitian nationals currently in the country who do not have, or who are not legally in the United States," Napolitano said. "TPS gives them sort of an intermediate immigration status; it allows them only for a period of 18 months — while Haiti gets back on its feet — to remain in the United States and authorizes them to work during that period."
Napolitano noted that letting these Haitians work legally will allow them to send remittances to needy relatives in Haiti. The Bush administration had refused to grant TPS to Haitians in the U.S. even after floods devastated Haiti six years ago and four hurricanes hit that nation in 2008. Mark Krikorian heads the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates more restrictions on immigration. He concedes the earthquake in Haiti is precisely what TPS was designed to deal with:
"But the question is, is it going to be temporary? Because all previous grants of TPS in actual fact ended up being permanent," Krikorian said. "Very few people, if any, have ever been deported after a grant of TPS."
Krikorian worries that granting protected status to Haitians in the U.S. will trigger a refugee exodus from Haiti. But Napolitano stated emphatically that those Haitians who attempt to sneak into the U.S. will be sent home:
"At this moment of tragedy in Haiti it is tempting for people suffering in the aftermath of the earthquake to seek refuge elsewhere," she said. "But attempting to leave Haiti now will only bring more hardship to the Haitian people and nation."
Napolitano said there have been no signs yet of Haitians fleeing to the U.S. Rep. Jim McGovern, a Democrat from Massachusetts, who was among a bipartisan group that pushed hard for temporary protected status for Haitians, said sending such refugees back would be difficult:
"The way you prevent that is you respond the way we're responding right now, in dealing with the humanitarian crisis immediately," he said. "That's the way you avoid boatloads of refugees leaving Haiti and coming to the United States."

B. Wurtz
Curated by Nic Tammens
March 26 - April 4, 2015
B.Wurtz works from a basement studio in his home on Manhattan's Lower East Side.
This local fact is attested to by the plastic shopping bags and newsprint circulars that appear in his work. As formal objects, they don't make loud claims about their origins but nonetheless transmit street addresses and places of business from the bottom of this long thin island. Like plenty of artists, Wurtz is affected by what is local and what is consumed. His work is underpinned by this ethic. It often speaks from a neighborhood or reads like the contents of a hamper:
"BLACK PLUMS $1.29 lb."
"Food Bazaar"
"USDA Whole Pork Shoulder Picnic 99c lb."
"RITE AID Pharmacy, with us it's personal."
"H. Brickman & Sons."
"Sweet Yams 59c lb."
Most of the work in this exhibition was made while the artist was in residence at Dieu Donne, a workshop dedicated to paper craft in Midtown. Here Wurtz fabricated assemblages with paper and objects that are relatively lightweight, with the intention that they would be easily transportable to Australia. This consideration isn't absolute in Wurtz's work, but was prescriptive for making the current exhibition light and cheap. Packed in two boxes, these works were sent from a USPS post office on the Lower East Side and delivered to North Melbourne by Australia Post.
Wurtz appears courtesy of Metro Pictures, New York.

Press Release:
"...It contained seven objects. The slender fluted bone, surely formed for flight, surely from the wing of some large bird. Three archaic circuitboards, faced with mazes of gold. A smooth white sphere of baked clay. An age-blackened fragment of lace. A fingerlength segment of what she assumed was bone from a human wrist, grayish white, inset smoothly with the silicon shaft of a small instrument that must once have ridden flush with the surface of the skin - but the thing's face was seared and blackened."

Hubs and Fictions, originally a touring forum, invited international curators, writers, and producers to probe how fiction plays out in a globally distributed art-world ecology, and how infrastructures are invented against its background. In 2012, the forum was staged sequentially at Cooper Gallery (Dundee), Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art (Gateshead), Goldsmiths University of London, and operated as a satellite event to Edgar Schmitz's exhibition "Surplus Cameo Decor," curated by Sophia Yadong Hao at Cooper Gallery.
The book functions as a deliberately discontinuous reader; it juxtaposes documents, negotiations, and reflections from and on these conversations. The publication also includes a preface by Andrea Phillips, a new image sequence by Schmitz, and a suite of reflexive annotations exchanged between Hao and Schmitz.

The chance situation or random event—whether as a strategy or as a subject of investigation—has been central to many artists' practices across a multiplicity of forms, including expressionism, automatism, the readymade, collage, surrealist and conceptual photography, fluxus event scores, film, audio and video, performance, and participatory artworks. But why—a century after Dada and Surrealism's first systematic enquiries—does chance remain a key strategy in artists' investigations into the contemporary world?The writings in this anthology examine the gap between intention and outcome, showing it to be crucial to the meaning of chance in art. The book provides a new critical context for chance procedures in art since 1900 and aims to answer such questions as why artists deliberately set up such a gap in their practice; what new possibilities this suggests; and why the viewer finds the art so engaging.Artists surveyed include: Vito Acconci, Bas Jan Ader, Francis Alÿs, William Anastasi, John Baldessari, Walead Beshty, Mark Boyle, George Brecht, Marcel Broodthaers, John Cage, Sophie Calle, Tacita Dean, Stan Douglas, Marcel Duchamp, Brian Eno, Fischli & Weiss, Ceal Floyer, Huang Yong Ping, Douglas Huebler, Allan Kaprow, Alison Knowles, Jiri Kovanda, Jorge Macchi, Christian Marclay, Cildo Meireles, Robert Morris, Bruce Nauman, Yoko Ono, Gabriel Orozco, Cornelia Parker, Robert Rauschenberg, Gerhard Richter, Daniel Spoerri, Keith Tyson, Jennifer West, Ceryth Wyn Evans, La Monte Young

Google Gets Into The DNS Business. Here's What That Means
Thursday, December 3, 2009; 7:46 AM
Google just announced Google Public DNS, a new service that lets consumers use Google as their DNS service provider. The benefits to users are a theoretically faster and more stable browsing experience, and some additional security against malware type sites. The benefit to Google ¿ tons more data, and some potential revenue.
Here are the basic instructions on how to use it (and Google has even provided phone support).
The service competes directly with Sequoia and Greylock backed OpenDNS, a four year old service that has had tremendous usage and revenue growth. OpenDNS is resolving 20 billion DNS queries per day, and has 15 million end users. Here's an overview of how OpenDNS works.
In 2008 OpenDNS was making $20,000/day in revenue when they were resolving just 7 billion daily queries.
Here's how money is made ¿ when users enter a URL that can't resolve, the service puts up its own landing page with search results and advertisements (Update: Google isn't redirecting to search results like OpenDNS does. odd). And companies are very willing to pay for DNS services like these to stop employees from hitting malware sites (they are simply blocked), or other sites (porn, Facebook, etc.).
Update: OpenDNS has responded to the new Google service here.
Update 2: I spoke with Prem Ramaswami, the product manager for Google Public DNS. He the goals are speed, security and validty of DNS responses. They will follow DNS protocols to the letter, he says, which means no blocking, hijacking or filtering of queries at all. It's all about speed. Prem points out this page that goes into technical detail on the speed improvements ¿ and they're sharing this with the community.
On privacy: Here's the policy that says what's being collected and how long they're keeping it. Collected data includes IP address (up to 48 hours, to detect malicious behavior against the service), ISP information and geographic information (2 weeks each). The data is not correlated with your Google account in any way, they say.
The average user does about 1,000 queries per day, says Prem.

Ben Cash (Viggo Mortensen) is raising his six children off the grid in rural Washington. They live in a sort of yurt with adjacent tree houses and other buildings, they hunt and farm all of their own food, and they celebrate Noam Chomsky's birthday like it's Christmas. Ben is the sort of ideological-minded communist who hates the greater capitalist culture of America and teaches his children five languages as well as a doctrine to stick it to the man. Their life seems ideal, enough to make you want to cut up your Costco card, buy a VW bus and bathe under a waterfall after doing yoga in a meadow.

On Sunday, January 26th from 5:30-6:30pm, past SAW artist Don Porcella will give an artist talk at The Owl's Head, 479 74th Street, Brooklyn, NY. Porcella will discuss the mural he recently created for The Owl's Head as part of their new mural series, as well as his artistic process in general and creating public art. The talk will begin with a brief introduction to SAW and how artists can apply for the upcoming 2014 program.
About Don Porcella
Born and raised in Modesto, California, Don Porcella has exhibited his artwork at galleries and museums across the U.S. and in Berlin, Paris, and Copenhagen. Porcella's art has been reviewed in the New York Times, NY ARTS, Fiber Arts Magazine, Chelsea Now, San Francisco Magazine and the Village Voice to name a few. He has a BA in Psychology from the University of California at San Diego, a BFA from California College of Arts and Crafts and an MFA from Hunter College in New York. Porcella's work is included in public and private collections across the United States and Europe. Porcella has received grants from the Council on the Arts and Humanities for Staten Island, the Brooklyn Arts Council, and an Emerging Artist Fellowship from Socrates Sculpture Park. Porcella is a 2012 recipient of the competitive West Collects Prize and a 2014 recipient of the SWATCH Art Residency in Shanghai.
About the Mural
Don Porcella is interested in the intersection between visual and written language and what defines objects in our physical realm. Some have stated that art is defined purely by the image, and therefore words have no place in visual art. Porcella disrupts this preconception by creating a mural entitled "Wordscape", utilizing only words to create the visual image.

Sure we have bacon and eggs, but we also have cereals.
Every time I watch a travel food show that goes someplace other than Western Europe, it strikes me how different, and often savory, the breakfasts in other parts of the world are.
Have you noticed more emphasis on savory? What really different kinds of breakfasts in other countries do you really like, and what don't work for your palate?
(I know plenty of countries have buns, but there are also places that emphasize things like spicy fish stew... I think it was fish... items I'm not often ready for till dinner somehow.)

Call for Proposals – Research Partnership Grants
Background: The challenges of transdisciplinary collaboration on nexus topics
The Nexus Network aims to foster collaborations between researchers from different scientific disciplines, and between researchers and stakeholders in business, policy and civil society, in order to improve decision-making at the nexus of food, energy, water and the wider environment. In order to support the development and implementation of transdisciplinary research on nexus-related topics, the Nexus Network has committed £400,000 to a two-phase funding process in 2015 – 2016.
Phase 1 of the Nexus Network research partnership programme (which closed in January 2015) awarded six networking grants of up to £20,000 each, in order to support researchers to build meaningful inter- and trans-disciplinary research collaboration networks, and to engage a range of stakeholders as knowledge partners in the co-design of research proposals on nexus topics. Recipients of phase I grants are encouraged to apply to phase II, but this is an open call, and not restricted to recipients of phase I funding.
The call
In this call, the Nexus Network has a total of £300,000 available to support inter- and trans-disciplinary research projects on nexus themes. That is projects that improve understanding of the food- energy- water- environment nexus interactions and support actions to improve their sustainability.
Proposals are invited for funding of up to a maximum of £150,000 each. The Nexus Network, which is funded by ESRC, will award funds consistent with RCUK policy, which is the Nexus Network will contribute up to 80% of FEC to HEIs, and 100% of costs to non-academic collaborators.
Full proposals should be submitted by 1700 UK time on 31 Jan 2016. Applicants will be informed of the funding decisions in April 2016. Grants must start by 1 July 2016. Proposals should be for projects of up to 12 months duration.
The projects and activities funded in this call will become part of the Nexus Network portfolio of work, that includes an on-going series of thematic workshops. All applicants should read through the aims of the Nexus Network, and look at our upcoming workshops.
- Proposals must have the potential to improve understanding of interactions between food-energy-water and the environment.
- Proposals must involve collaboration beyond academia (e.g. with civil society, business or policy) in the co-design of the research.
- The thematic focus of the research can be either UK based or international.
Key dates
- Research Partnership Call opens: 19 November 2015.
- Submission deadline: 31 January 2016 1700 hrs GMT.
- Funding decision / award: Early April 2016.
- Latest start date for awarded projects: 1 July 2016.
- Latest end date for awarded projects: 1 July 2017.
- This call is open to researchers based at UK organisations that are eligible to receive Research Council funding (including Higher Education Institutions and some independent research organisations). Researchers based outside the UK may also be involved in an application, and collaborations between UK researchers and international partners are strongly encouraged. But the lead applicant (through whose institution/organisation the funds will be administered) must be based at a UK institution.
- Lead applicants must have a PhD or at least 5 years full-time equivalent research experience.
- Stakeholders from business, policy and civil society who wish to take part in this process must seek a partner in an eligible UK academic institution, through whom funds will be administered. The Nexus Network team would welcome approaches from non-UK or business, policy and civil society organisations, with strong ideas for research, but who find themselves unable to find suitable UK academic partners.
- Funding cannot be awarded directly to individuals but will be paid to the organisation/institution with which they are affiliated (if you are not an employee of the lead organisation, it is your responsibility to ensure that they are willing to enter into an agreement with the University of Sussex, to manage the award and administer the funding on your behalf).
application form
In the online application form you will be asked for the following information:
- Name and institutional affiliation of lead applicant and partners.
- Proposed title of project.
- A clear, non-expert summary of the nexus issue, challenge or opportunity, to be explored (up to 6000 characters including spaces).
- A description of the project activities, including proposed methodology and deliverables (up to 6000 characters).
- A description of the transdisciplinary nature of the project, including the different academic disciplines and other knowledge partners (from outside academia) who will be brought together in this project, and how (up to 2000 characters including spaces).
- Track record of the proposed team (up to 2000 characters including spaces).
- Amount applied for, budget breakdown and justification of the funds requested (up to 2000 characters including spaces).
We do not require any additional documentation beyond the data entered in the form fields.
Assessment process
Applications will undergo a three-stage process:
- First sift by the Nexus Network management team and exclusion of applications that do not meet the eligibility criteria (see point 5. above)
- Peer review of eligible proposals by a cross-sectoral and transdisciplinary panel consisting of representatives from business, policy, civil society and academia
- Final selection, including potential interviews.
Assessment criteria
- Scope: does the application engage with two or more nexus areas (food, energy, water and environment)?
- Engagement strategy: does the application outline a persuasive strategy for engagement between disciplines and between researchers and other knowledge partners? (i.e. are the kinds of engagements suggested appropriate and feasible? Do the applicants display a depth of understanding about the possible barriers and challenges to inter- and trans-disciplinary work, and has thought been given to how these might be overcome?)
- Feasibility of the work plan over the grant period, and appropriateness of the budget, including Value for Money.
What will the award require of successful applicants?
A standard grant agreement between the University of Sussex and the applicant's organisation will be established before projects start and funds are disbursed. The grant agreement will include terms and conditions related to:
The grant start date and duration; the grant payment schedule; reporting requirements and timeframes; outputs and results; participation in key Nexus Network events and workshops. NB: An audit trail of project expenses is a requirement of ESRC funding. Applicants must be able to identify all direct costs claimed and maintain records of expenditure.
For further details or to discuss your proposal please contact the network coordinator, Cian O'Donovan by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or call 01273 873603.

Growing up, everyone told me how sharky the shoals and the inlet were in Ocean City. Seen one thresher there when I was a teenager, that's it. Ever. I think they just didn't want the shoals to get crowded and having guys towing into it.
And as for the Savannah Shipping Channel, man... I have been told not even to touch that water with exposed skin. They basically said, if you get water from the Savannah River on your shoe, throw your shoe away. And those f'in cargo ships are insane. Last two times I have been down there, huge ones rolled through, taller than the skyline. Easily like 15 stories high. Moving a ton of water behind it. They go pretty slow though. The wake was not all that. They probably open it up a bit once they get out of river street.

Something you may want to look into, model wise, if you can pull similar data, would be looking at a model of water breaking up against a cliff and then the same water breaking on sand. So, find a stretch of beach, Sunset Cliffs would be a good instance of this. There are open, sandy beaches, where the waves eventually crash into, but mixed among them are tall cliffs. So, if you could look at an area like that, preferably if there is one in southern france, that could give you an answer. If could either tell you, yes, my simulation is correct, and it is doing what it would actually do, or something is just off.
I can't say yey or ney on the low tide thing, but if you are talking about water refraction off a structure, then at a low tide, that could create more water, forcing what we consider a "wave height" to be higher, simply because the water is slightly taller above the ocean's surface. But in reality, I don't think what you would see is actually a "wave" as it were. It would, mathematically speaking just mean that there is a slightly higher amount of water moving around above the sea level....
Dunno. But like I said, look for an area along that coast that has a natural obstruction. A cliff or hillside where the waves actually crash right into it. Take a look at that area and how it reacts, and that should give you your answer.
Jun 25, 2014, 03:10 PM #36
I guess what I am saying, is that what the simulation considers "a wave" is probably not a wave. because what the algorythm considers a wave is just the amount of water above sea level as the ocean moves. As long as the moving water falls into all the scenerios and filters, it will be treated as a wave on your model and the output would look like one, when in reality, it was just moving water, POTENTIALLY, even water moving back out to sea. The water, at a low tide, against an obstruction would create a rise in the ocean height, even if half of the water is moving back out to sea. The computer will just read that as "wave height" not taking into consideration what that water is actually doing. So, that added rise in "wave height" may not be a wave at all. It could just be the end result, which is identified as a wave, even if it is not.

There is a wave model called RefDiff developed by Kirby (last name) that you might want to look into, that takes account of the high resolution refraction/diffraction processes, which is what you are going to deal with with a breakwater. In general, tidal influences on wave height will be largely influenced by Bathymetry, but currents, refraction, and detraction can play big roles especially with coastlines impacted by coastal structures, such as inlets and hard structures or where currents from inland bays are nearby.

Thanks for all of your answers. They are really helpful. I've been thinking that, as my model isn't counting right now with any wave breaking parameters, the shoaling effect is free to elevate the water as far up as nearly the whole wave height.

I forgot how polluted that river is I don't like to eat anything out of it plus they dumped a sht tone of radioactive waste in it from back in the day when the savannah river site could get away with it.

There is all kinds of nasty sh** up in that water. Gives me the creeps just looking at it from Riverstreet. Reminds me of the Baltimore Inner Harbor.... I actually knew a guy in Baltimore. People would pay him to free dive the inner harbor when people would drop sh** in. Cameras, whatever. For like $20, this dude would jump in the damn harbor, hold his breath and straight swim to the bottom, and sift through the gunk with his bare hands. And 9 outta 10 times, dude would come up with said item. Can't believe dude is alive. That water is straight filth. Dirty, rotten, industrial filth.
That new Geico commerical of the gecko on the tiny boat is filmed on the inner harbor. You know that this is just an animation, cause a real gecko woulda died on contact with that sh**.

While Chandigarh may be just around the corner, the commercial hub of Mohali erupts in all things cricket come IPL season, as fans throng this city turning its roads into a post-match block party with raucous revelry and un-bridled enthusiasm spilling out everywhere.
Mohali or maybe we should use its new name—Ajitgarh—is a virtual satellite town to the planned city of Chandigarh and together with Panchkula and Chandigarh form the Chandigarh Tricity. And given the fact that Chandigarh is a mere 10kms away, all your post IPL match activities will ultimately converge in Chandigarh. But to truly getaway from it all head to the wilds of the Jim Corbett National Reserve where you can indulge your every glamping whim to the fullest! Our pick of some of the spiffiest digs in the jungle where the only cricket you'll hear of are the insect kind are…
1. Samsara The Resort and Club, Corbett offers all sorts of luxurious accommodations, scrumptious dining with daily jungle excursions and safaris.
2. Corbett Machaan Resort. A combination of Air Conditioned luxury huts and tents make up this resort that is full of natural vegetation which provides a complete jungle experience to the Mohali weekender.
3. The Golden Tusk. This boutique resort may be contemporary and sleek in its look, but at its heart it is rustic elegance personified—all this at the very edge of the Jim Corbett National Reserve.
