Irate customers, missing shipments, damaged products, returns, chargebacks… Oh wait, did you check your Google Analytics data today?
No. No you didn't.
It's ok. No one's judging you. As an eCommerce owner you're always running to put out fires or handle things that require immediate attention. You wear many hats and rarely do you have time to sift through the day's numbers. To be honest, as a business owner there are probably only a few really important metrics you care about anyway.
Fortunately, there's a solution for that. It's called Custom Alerts, a very nifty Google Analytics feature that is rarely used. That's surprising because setting up custom alerts in Google Analytics can save you a lot of time and help you manage your store a lot better.
In this post, we'll look at how to set up custom alerts in your Google Analytics dashboard, and the most important alerts that any eCommerce business owner needs to set up. While you read this, fire up Google Analytics and set up the alerts in parallel. It's really simple and the whole thing will only take 5 minutes (7 if you're sipping some hot coffee simultaneously).
What Are Custom Alerts
So Google Analytics has this section in the Reporting tab called 'Intelligence Events'. It sounds like a division of the CIA, but it's really not that cool. Intelligence Events is just an intelligent-sounding name for alerts.
Even though you've never used this feature before, don't be surprised to find that there are already some alerts set up. These are Automatic Alerts that are pre-built into Google Analytics. What we're interested in are the Custom Alerts which are right next to the automatic ones.
Now, of course, you won't have any custom alerts to start with so to set one up you'll need to hit 'Create a Custom Alert'. You can also hit 'Manage Custom Alerts' which will take you into the Admin section and let you create them from there. Either way, you'll see a screen like this –
You give the alert a name, pick an alert period (daily, weekly, or monthly) and then set up the conditions. We'll go into more detail about the conditions soon. The really cool thing about custom alerts is that you can receive an email or text message when your conditions are met, so don't forget to set that up before saving the alert.
Ok, so now that you know the basics of setting up custom alerts, let's look at some important ones for eCommerce businesses. Obviously you don't want to be receiving alerts for every single event happening on your store, so we'll be very selective.
Traffic related alerts will give you a broad picture of the state of your website. These are typically daily alerts because you'll want to know if anything major is happening on your site that needs your attention.
Sudden Spike In Traffic
A spike in traffic could indicate your new campaign is working, or that some big news site has covered you. You'll need an alert immediately so that you can capitalize on this. For example, if an influential blogger has linked to your store, you can create a personalized CTA and welcome those visitors with a special discount.
These are the settings:
- Period: Day
- This applies to: All traffic
- Alert me when: Sessions
- Condition: % increases by more than
- Value: Depends on how much your traffic varies on a daily basis. Enter a value that's not too small to trigger an alert every day, but not abnormally large either. Around 50% should be fine.
- Compared to: Previous Day
Sudden Drop In Traffic
Conversely, a drop in traffic means something bad is happening. It could be as simple as a problem with your Google Analytics connection, or something as catastrophic as your site going down. This can happen if you host your eCommerce store on your own servers. You might want to consider moving to a cloud hosted platform with a high uptime guarantee.
For a drop in traffic, you can simply do the opposite of what you did in the previous alert, and set the condition to '% decreases by more than', rather than '% increases by more than'. There's also a special case for your site going down where your sessions will drop to 0. If you want to set that up, it will look like this:
- Period: Day
- This applies to: All traffic
- Alert me when: Sessions
- Condition: is less than
- Value: 1
Drop In Engagement
Another disaster alert is when there's a big drop in engagement on your site. That means the average time spent per visitor has suddenly gone down. This could be because some of your pages are extremely slow or unresponsive, or maybe your site has stopped loading properly on certain devices or browsers. In this case you'll still see traffic, but they'll only stick around for a few seconds before they leave.
To set this up, you want to get alerted when 'Average Session Duration' is less than the previous day by a large amount (if you want a comparative alert), or less than, say, 10 seconds (if you want an absolute alert).
Sales and Conversion Rates
Ok, it's time for the real money stuff. Sales and conversion rate alerts can help you identify if you're suddenly making a killing, or your business is tanking.
Spike In Revenue
More revenue is always great, but if there's a sudden spike, you want to know immediately so that you can figure out what's causing it and replicate it in the future. Maybe you created a new promotion that day. If so, you can create an annotation in your Google Analytics to indicate when this happened.
The settings are simple:
- Period: Day
- This applies to: All traffic
- Alert me when: Revenue
- Condition: % increases by more than
- Value: Depends on how much your revenue varies on a daily basis.
- Compared to: Previous Day
Drop In Conversion Rate
A large drop in conversion rates is definitely bad news. This could imply something has gone wrong with your checkout funnel. If you have set up a cart abandonment funnel in Google Analytics, you'll be able to see exactly where it has gone wrong.
If you've followed our cart abandonment guide, you would have set up a goal to track successful purchases. You can use that when creating this alert:
- Period: Day
- This applies to: All traffic
- Alert me when: Goal Conversion Rate
- Condition: % decreases by more than
- Value: 50%
- Compared to: Same day in previous week
Spike In Bounce Rate
Bounce rate is when someone visits a page on your site from an external source and then leaves that page without visiting any others. You can set alerts for the bounce rates for landing pages like your homepage, or any of your most visited product pages.
Stay Alert
The truth is you can set up alerts for almost everything. You can set up an alert for decreases in average order value for everyone purchasing from an iPhone, or an increase in unique orders for anyone from Russia. However, it's important that you understand what your main business goals and metrics are before you set up alerts. As a business owner, you need to know what matters to you most, and get other people to deal with everything else.
And if you just want to see some nice graphs about your business instead of the mess that is Google Analytics, take a look at some of the reporting we have in LemonStand. We have a built-in integration with Google Analytics that pulls your numbers in and shows you the most important ones in easy to understand charts.

We've been writing about food for a long time now and the number one question we always get asked is some variation of, "Where should I go out to eat tonight?" or "What's the best restaurant in Buffalo right now?" Earlier this year we created the Buffalo Eats Approved list to help answer that question but found that it still might be overwhelming.
That's why we are creating The Ten.
This list is not set in stone and will continue to evolve as restaurants open, close and improve. There are no cuisine or price point requirements, however new restaurants will have to wait 30 days before they are eligible to be added to the list. We will update the list every month so it is current and includes any new restaurants (and there are a lot coming) that we feel need to be included as well as already-established restaurants that deserve a spot.
The following list is in alphabetical order:
The Black Sheep. When Bistro Europa closed in March 2014, the foodie community of Western New York held their breath while they waited for The Gedra's to get back in the kitchen. Everyone knows that Steve and Ellen Gedra are some of the most talented chefs in Buffalo. They almost exclusively use quality, local ingredients and their dishes truly reflect their creative imaginations. Their desserts and bread baskets are also top notch as Ellen is one of the best Pastry Chefs in Western New York. Additions of a craft cocktail program, a carefully curated beer list and a deeper wine menu have made this West Side restaurant a true culinary destination. (blacksheepbuffalo.com, 716-884-1100)
Buffalo Proper. When we wrote our review, we had a very big disclaimer that should be stated here too. Yes, we are good friends with the folks at Buffalo Proper. However, we still feel very confident in saying that it is already one of the very best restaurants in Western New York. The bar is without question the hottest in the city right now (not to mention one of the best looking) and the food is excellent to say the least. The thoughtful and creative menu includes high quality dishes using the best local and seasonal ingredients in WNY. The pairing of Bar Manager Jon Karel and Chef Edward Forster has truly lived up to the hype. Right now, it's our favorite place to eat and drink in the entire city. (buffaloproper.com, 716-783-8699)
Carmelo's Restaurant. Located in the beautiful village of Lewiston, Carmelo's is attracting customers from all over Western New York with their from-scratch rustic Italian menu and romantic dining room. Chef/Owner Carmelo Raimondi utilizes seasonal and local ingredients to offer a dinner menu that changes on a weekly basis based on what's in season and available at the market. They offer a small but carefully selected wine and beer list and their desserts are some of the best in the area. (carmelos-restaurant.com, 716-754-2311)
Elm Street Bakery. For years, Elm Street Bakery was famous for their delicious wood-fired pizza, freshly made bread, and baked goods from the talented Chef Luci Levere. Recently, it has become a true destination restaurant with the addition of Chef Brad Rowell as the head of their newly offered dinner service. The entire menu is prepared in their wood fire oven and the dishes are offered as small plates that are meant for sharing. They always have a couple great local beers on tap and their new dessert menu by Chef Luci is just ridiculous. It doesn't hurt that their location is gorgeous; their large wood fire oven is the center of the show and is surrounded by a long wooden bar that provides a great view of the chefs at work. (elmstreetbakery.com, 716-652-4720)
Lloyd Taco Truck. Buffalo's food truck scene wouldn't be what it is now without Pete Cimino and Chef Chris Dorsaneo from Lloyd Taco Truck. It's not just that they were the first food truck to hit the streets of Buffalo, but they also set the tone for how good food can be coming from a tiny restaurant on wheels. They also single-handedly changed how Western New York thinks about tacos. Recently, they completely overhauled their food sourcing to only meat that doesn't contain antibiotics or hormones and they work with local farms as often as possible. They've been open for over four years, their lines are still the longest in Western New York and they've expanded to three trucks, so yeah… they are doing something right. (whereslloyd.com, 716-863-9781)
Marble + Rye. Christian Willmott and Mike Dimmer, owners of The Black Market Food Truck, opened their first brick-n-mortar restaurant in July 2015. The kitchen takes full advantage of their wood fire oven and Mexican style plancha. Their dinner menu is small but features a rotating selection of seasonal produce, freshly made pasta and some of the best burgers you'll find in town. After one month in business they already have stand out dishes like their pickled onion rings, Macaron ice cream sandwiches (using Butter Block maracons) and wood fire grilled octopus. The bar program features a carefully selected craft beer menu and a growing list of whiskey. You can even become a VIP and store a bottle of whiskey under lock and key in their lockers on site. (http://marbleandrye.net, 716-853-1390)
Ristorante Lombardo. North Buffalo is known for their large concentration of Italian restaurants, but Ristorante Lombardo easily stands out from the rest of the pack. In our opinion, it is one of best restaurants in Western New York because it offers a complete dining package. Their service is excellent and they've updated the dining room to have a more contemporary design. Tommy Lombardo's wine selection is impressive (especially by the glass) and his cocktail's are well rounded and made with fresh ingredients. Most importantly, Chef Michael Obarka's food is wonderful. His rustic Italian menu offers dishes that aren't readily available in the area and his dedication to using quality ingredients and making almost everything in-house is evident. (ristorantelombardo.com, 716-873-4291)
SeaBar. When SeaBar expanded from a small sushi counter to a full kitchen with a dining room, it quickly became one of the best restaurants Downtown. Their sushi bar offers some of the best traditional and non-traditional sushi in the area. Their signature Beef on Weck roll was even showcased at the Super Bowl. Chef/Owner Mike Andrzejewski has created a menu that isn't always necessarily focused on a specific cuisine but incorporates interesting dishes that are always well-executed. Have a craving for Chicken and Waffles? Foie Gras? Seafood Tacos? Lobster Ramen? They've got you covered. (seabarsushi.com, 716-204-5283)
Toutant. When Chef James Roberts left the country club world to open his own place, the restaurant industry collectively lost their sh*t and for good reason. He's one of the most talented Chef's in Western New York and the food at Toutant definitely showcases his skills. Don't get confused, this isn't a Cajun restaurant, it's a Southern restaurant. Comfort foods like biscuits, fried chicken, hush puppies, cornbread and jambalaya are executed perfectly in house with top quality ingredients. Combine great food with an excellent whiskey selection, great cocktails and late night bar eats (past midnight) and you've got a winning combination (toutantbuffalo.com, 716-342-2901).
Changes to The Ten:
- 9/8/15: Added Marble + Rye, Removed The Black Market Food Truck
- 6/12/15: Added Toutant, Removed Bar Bill Tavern
- 4/2/15: Added Jaguar at the Bistro, Removed Shango
- 9/29/14: Added The Black Sheep, Removed Sun Restaurant
- 9/18/14: Added Buffalo Proper, Removed Tabree

State Government Network Meeting Notes: 7.11.16
Speak Up: AIA's Advocacy Converence Notes: 7.13.16
2016 accomplishments – NATIONAL
- Representatives attended "Grassroots Leadership Conference" in Detroit, Michigan in February. Participating were Bill Segrest, Rob Walker, Bruce Herrington, and Renee Kemp Rotan. Birmingham Mayor William Bell was a panel member at the Conference.
- Attended inaugural "SpeakUp!" workshop in Washington, DC in July. Participating were Lauren Gwaltney, Rob Walker, and Bruce Herrington. Rob and Bruce visited with members of Congressman Palmer's staff and Senator Sessions' staff.
- Attended the State Government Network (SGN) in July. Bruce Herrington participated.
2016 accomplishments – STATE
- Prison Bill. A bill to authorize an $800m bond issuance to fund design/construction of 4 prisons was introduced. These included authorization for "alternative delivery" (CMR or D/B) for these structures. Phil Black, Don Brown, and Bruce Herrington – along with Rob Walker – successfully modified the 'alternative delivery' language in the final version of the bill. The bill was ultimately not passed.
- Historic Preservation Tax Credits. Although AIA Birmingham's efforts and collaboration with numerous other organizations, the Tax Credits were not reauthorized. Word on the street is that they will be reauthorized during the 2017 Legislative session.
- "Anti-LEED" Bill.
- Governor Bentley rescinded his Executive Order in January, a few days prior to the Legislative Session. There was no bill related to this during the legislative session.
- LEED v4 offers alternative means of getting points/credits for non-FSC-timber. This has effectively curtailed the timber industry's dissatisfaction. The timber industry was a 2016 sponsor of GreenBuild.
- AIA Birmingham ensured the Birmingham Business Alliance maintained this issue on its "Monitor" Agenda, in case the timber industry brings it up again.
- "Construction Manager at Risk" (CMR) and "Design/Build" bill
- A bill dedicated to CMR or Design/Build – to authorize their use on public projects in Alabama – was not introduced in the Legislature this year.
- See "Prison Bill" below.
2016 accomplishments – LOCAL
- Birmingham's proposed "Character-Based Zoning Ordinance." The City has established a public comment period for the proposed Ordinance changes/additions, and is holding scheduled meeting approx every 2 weeks for review. The Character-Based Ordinance appears to be overreaching and too specific; it appears to dictate design rather than providing parameters for design. Richard Simonton, Mike Gibson, Alex Krumdieck, and Bruce Herrington have attended meetings last fall to review and discussed the proposed additions to the Zoning Ordiance. Richard is heading up AIA Birmingham's official response, which could be lengthy.
- Expanded awareness and involvement. Team members met with Mayor Zaragosa and City Manager Jeff Dunn (Vestavia) to inform them of how AIA Birmingham can assist their municipalitiies. (Team members are scheduling meeting with mayors of Vestavia, Mountain Brook, Hoover, Homewood, Trussville, and possibly others. A meeting with Mayor Maddox of Tuscaloosa should also be held.) Keith Starnes is heading up the scheduling of these meetings for January and February.
- Association representation. Bruce Herrington continues to represent AIA Birmingham in the Birmingham Business Alliance's 'Government Affairs Committee'.
- During a meeting with Mayor Bell in May 2016, he asked AIA Birmingham to focus its efforts on the following items/issues, which continue to be moved forward:
- Moving the "Green Birmingham Award" forward toward passage as an ordiance.
- Reconvening the IgCC review team with City representatives.
- Investigation into creating ecodistrict(s) in Birmingham.
See below for outcomes/progress.
- Green Birmingham Award (GBA).
- In 2014, the Award was divided into 2 initiatives – a "recognition award ordinance" for buildings that have been sustainably designed and constructed; and a "financial incentives ordinance" for buildings that meet sustainable design/construction milestones.
- A portion of the Green Birmingham Award was included in the City's modified Zoning Ordinance, passed in November.
- Team members include Roman Gary and Bruce Herrington.
- The "ecodistrict" initiative within the City has transformed into more of an Innovation District initiative. REVBirmingham was asked to head up the effort. Unusually, this appears to have been done without knowledge of some of the City staff.
- Bruce Katz (Brookings Institution) spoke at the BBA's 'President's Luncheon' on 12/6. BBA President Ray Watts MD formally announced the planning for Birmingham's Innovation District but did not reveal details.
- International Green Construction Code (IgCC) review. Marshall Anderson and his "review team" completed its IgCC review in summer 2016. AIA Birmingham needs to determine a way to confirm and "assent" to the review team's recommendations.
2017 probable targets/initiatives
- National
- Attend Grassroots Conference / Washington
- Attend SpeakUp! in Denver in July.
- Monitoring the need for involvement in the Anti-LEED issue(s).
- No other known "threats" at the National
- Issues on the AIA National website:
- Procurement and project delivery – Reform procurement laws that stifle competition
- Business of architecture – Help small firms thrive; Promote preservation of public buildings and spaces; Promote financing for energy efficient buildings: et al
- Global practice – Promoting American architects abroad
- Career issues – Relieving student debt
- Sustainability – Oppose Federal repeal of Energy-saving goals, et al
- Communities – Invest in our nation's infrastructure
- Design – Oppose the use of stock plans for schools
- Building codes – Help communities prepare for natural disasters
- State. The following bills / initiatives will be monitored during 2017. Note that Don Brown and Gary Greenshields are very involved in Legislative Affairs at the State level. Larry Vinson (Executive Director of the Alabama Council AIA) continues to assist also.
- Historic Preservation Tax Credit Bill (support)
- Prison Bill (ensure the best alternative delivery language is included)
- CM at Risk and/or Design/Build
- Any "Anti-LEED" bill(s). Regardless of the recent moderation of the timber industry's actions, it may re-tool its bill and propose that third-party rating systems be consensus-based and ANSI
- Certificate of Merit
- Mechanics Lien Law
- Tax Credits for Businesses that fund apprenticeships.
- Local. Continue with the above-described initiatives:
- Continue participation in review/response to Birmingham's Character-Based Zoning Ordiance.
- Expanded awareness and involvement via visits to mayors of surrounding cities.
- IgCC review (will probably utilize this as a message to take to the Mayors on a follow-up visit.)
- IECC (International Energy Conservation Code), which works hand-in-glove with the IgCC.
- Green Birmingham Award
- Innovation District / Ecodistrict

Hey guys, we're back!
This week, we talk a bit more about the Detroit Tigers' shortstop situation and the implications it could have for Darwin Barney, who is slowly getting squeezed out of the Cubs' infield picture.
We talk about pitcher protection in the wake of the Aroldis Chapman accident. Thankfully Chapman is fine, but there needs to be some improvement that will allow pitchers to be comfortable while offering them as much protection as possible without taking away from their regular job duties.
We talk about the Dodgers and Diamondbacks playing half a world away in Australia and how that really messes with the players as well as with the main fan base for MLB. We segued to actual Cubs Opening Day and we talk a bit about the construction of the roster.

Eh-hum # 253
I went to school today hoping for some good news regarding my survey/Stat assignment. Unfortunately, things did not went according to plan so I have to make some adjustments in my schedule to meet my requirements for this semester. This is important because:
1. I have to maintain a certain grade (praying for at least a B-); and
2. This is my only subject for the semester, thus it would be extremely embarrassing if I fail (a big IF! Eh-hum).
Dear Lord...
This calls for some retail therapy. And I am very pleased I found this in my preferred bookstore:
Hard cover and less than a thousand pesos, very good indeed (of course am biased since its written by my favorite Python). The book is a, uh, book version of Mr Palin's latest adventure in what he describes as the "New" Europe (a discovery of the Europe he haven't explored, thanks to the Cold War). I have read the introduction and seen the initial photos (courtesy of Basil Pao). I must say, I am looking forward to finishing the rest of it (in due time, because I am still busy with my second Umberto Eco novel). Examining the book reminded me of my other dream job (next to Pixar animator): professional traveller/ adventure host, like Ian Wright (or Michael Palin in this case).
Wouldn't it be cool to travel the world for a living (and have the network pay for everything)? So many places to visit, cultures to experience, people to meet and food to taste. But of course, we will not be restricted to tourist destinations and fancy restaurants ala Lifestyle Network (which are not bad, by the way); I am talking about the travel shows in Discovery Channel and National Geographic Channel. Quite difficult since there will be situations wherein you will be forced to step out of your comfort zone (e.g. whacked-out bodily functions, near death experiences, exotic illnesses, custom officials); but I guess these challenges make the exploring and the travelling much more interesting, fulfilling, and life-changing.
But if I am bent on becoming an effective explorer and adventure host, I should learn/develop the following:
1. Learn to swim, or else will be forced to totally ignore places near coastlines and large bodies of water;
2. Develop one's immune system or resistance. Effective when you make your way through rainforests, mosquito infested areas and survive winter;
3. Travel light, or develop a strategy to cram everything you need in just one big back pack;
4. Work on my weak constitutions. To date, the only thing I ever eaten that's considered icky by many is an underaged chick in balut. I remembered trying not to smile after eating it for fear that the chick's feathers were still lodged between my teeth;
5. Nerves of steel, related to number 4. Useful when you ran out of tissue paper, or don't have a proper lavatory to begin with;
6. Map reading;
7. How to assemble a tent;
8. Hunting or food gathering skills (when push comes to shove);
9. Writing skills and a vast knowledge of adjectives, etc. (for good, impressive and share-worthy notes);
10. High tolerance for alchohol. Comes in handy in case a tribal chief force gallons of their nasty local liquor down your throat; and
11. Patience

Banning Carbohydrates for one of us,and frugal living
Plus, for those doubters out there - it is all good quality, I am most certainly as guilty as most people for being a food snob, and have been know to refuse to eat anything I think is from a questionable source (shop across the road from us in London in particular). OK, it is not Waitrose or Marks and Spencers' - you have to do the work making the basics in to something yummy - it doesn't already appear looking appealing. But am fairly pleased with it all, and with basing meals around protein, at least for me.
And the amazing diet news is that I've lost 8lb's in one week, which I'm really pleased with. The weird thing is I had lost it a couple of days ago and now stalled. Suspect the stall is down to the accidental wine drinking which occurred on Thursday night. I am not regretting the wine - as I needed it. It cured my monstrous detox headache (yes I know) and it cheered me up no end.
Still I won't be having wine this week - too excited about rapid weight loss to bother.
Any low carb but high protein tips for breakfast would be appreciated though - eggs are losing their appeal, and of course I don't eat meat so running out of options...

If you don't mind me saying, your diet, like any unnatural way of eating is doomed with failure. Depriving your body of something as significant as carbohydrate, which would normally provide slow-release energy, will force your body to develop a 'siege' mentally. This will mean that to fuel it through this period of weird eating it will store fat. The only way to lose weight and keep it lost is to making sensible eating a habit and combine this with exercise. Eat a carbohydrate rich breakfast (oats, cereals) thus providing the fuel to start the day. Eat slow-release carbohydrate (wholemeal pasta, couscous) as part of a balanced lunch and then leave the carbs out of the evening meal and have protein and vegetables/fruit. The carbs are not necessary in the evening as you would be sleeping on them. An unbalanced diet which leans towards the proteins will put a strain on your kidneys and as soon as you come off it you'll be fat again.

Hmm, thanks for that - I know what you're saying but disagree..as this diet is proven, plus I will be re-introducing carbs in the next phase. Just good ones - like wholemeal and porridge, and very occasionaly the bad stuff. Like any decent diet I think its all about a new way of eating, so hopefully sustainable.
And always good to be called fat on the internet!

The thing is, Bev - you really should point out that you are not actually fat...

Very kind Richard thank you.
At least I'm normal and doomed...
Oh, and I've just realised I can pretty much never drink lager again until I reach my target - so suspect actual target will be determined by need to drink lager/whether its hot enough in March to have first outside pint.

This season our instructors have taught a variety of courses; from simple refreshers and the basic open water course, to more speciality courses such as photography. The Similans are the ideal place to start or further your diving education as there are a variety of sites here for each skill level.
The way that we conduct course here at Thailand Dive and Sail is by first listening to what you want. Of course this is essential when talking to customers ;), but we do try to go that step further and listen to guest's needs and wishes. If someone is visiting on a tight schedule, we'll do our best to accommodate their travel plans and fit the course around their arrival/departure. Likewise, if we have people who have booked a luxury hotel in Khao Lak and do not want to spend nights out on a boat, we can also conduct courses from day trips.
Open Water Course in Khao Lak
We've seen an increase in people wanting to learn to dive with us this season, and we believe its due to the effort we put into our courses and the flexibility that we can offer. From the first point of contact we start to create a tailor made course right for each individual student.
Step 1: PADI vs SSI
Firstly, we determine whether the student would like to learn with PADI or SSI. Both dive schools have their benefits and it's entirely up to the student which one they choose. Our instructors are able to teach both.
As I have already mentioned, both PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) and SSI (Scuba Schools International) have their own benefits. Each has it's own fanbase, and each is internationally recognised. They both follow the regulations set out by WRSTC (World Recreational Scuba Training Council) and both have comprehensive courses following strict safety standards.
The most important thing to bear in mind when choosing a course is not the examining body, but the instructor and course structure that is right for you. It will be your instructor who guides you through the theory and course, how well they do this will determine how good of a diver you will be.
Step 2: Manual or elearning?
Secondly, we determine whether they will start the theory before they arrive in Khao Lak, or whether we will start when they get here. Online learning has opened up a whole new structure to the course and is excellent for those in Khao Lak on a short holiday and wanting to minimise classroom time. Having said that, our instructors will always go through everything with the students when they get here, just to make sure that they have actually read and understood everything. We may be flexible, but we are still adamant that divers will leave us as competent, confident divers.
There are most definitely some strong advantages to taking the online learning for an Open Water Course. For a start, it's likely that students will be travelling or on holiday when they are here: that usually means that they want to spend as little time in a classroom as possible. With elearning the theory segment of the course can be done before even arriving in Thailand, this saves a whole day when you get here.
Learning from a manual with your instructor has it's benefits too. How the theory segment of the course is structured will depend largely on the instructor teaching the course, however, our instructors are keen to do as much one on one theory with their students as possible. This is how they know that the student is ready to get into the water when out in the Similans.
Step 3: Day Trips or Liveaboard?
Thirdly, we establish whether learning from day trips or an overnight vessel would be best for the student. This will depend on time constraints, budget and also whether they are travelling with already qualified divers. We'll try to suggest the best option that suits everyone concerned.
When taking an open water course we believe that at least a two day one night liveaboard is the best option for the diving segment of the course. With the boat that we use, the MV Nemo I, students have 6 dives over 2 days. This means that there might be at least one fun dive thrown in as well, which is hugely beneficial (and of course FUN) for a newly qualified diver. The amount of time on the boat also means that students get more time with their instructor too, meaning more time for questions and learning ;)
Day trips are fine for those who want to stay in their resorts at night. We usually try and visit the Similans on day one and then the Boonsung Wreck on day two. This means that students will get only the four required dives to complete the course.
Step 4: Start the Course!
Lastly, we fix the schedule. We plan classroom time, swimming pool confined session and book trips on the relevant boats. When everything is confirmed, we can either start the online learning process or issue the manual as soon as the student arrives in Khao Lak.
Taking an open water course in Khao Lak is one of the best ways to learn, not only do we cater the course to your own schedule and learning needs, we are also ideally located near to the best dive sites in Thailand for courses.
Get in touch with us if you have any questions about learning to dive or would like to know the upcoming availability.

Evan Lewis published his study with athletes. Findings indicate a significant improvement in recovery and an improvement in performance. http://www.jissn.com/content/12/1/28
Fatty acids, which are long chains of carbon, are classified as saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated. Polyunsaturated fats contain omega-3s and omega-6s. Although there is wide variability between people, most Americans consume 10 times more omega-6s than omega-3s. Most experts agree a healthier ratio would be 1:1.
Recover faster
Compared to omega-3s, omega-6s are more strongly associated with inflammation. Omega 3 supplementation consistently results in lower levels of inflammation. High levels of inflammation can counteract some of exercise's positive effects on insulin sensitivity and other metabolic benefits. If inflammation remains elevated after exercise, this can negatively impact muscle soreness, tissue repair and other aspects of recovery.
Reduce muscle soreness
Omega-3 fats have also been shown to augment blood flow to muscles during exercise, decrease muscle soreness by 35%, reduce swelling, and increase range of motion after damaging exercise.
Burn fat and slow muscle loss
Studies also show that increasing omega-3 levels enhances insulin sensitivity, which improves fat burning in muscles and inhibits fat storage. Emerging work is even showing that omega-3s may regulate muscle growth and help during extended periods of rest by slowing the loss in both muscle and bone. This could apply for athletes during breaks in training or layoffs due to injury where muscle loss could be significant.
All these lines of research on omega-3s point to better recovery and improved health for athletes.
A proper balance of omega-3s and omega-6s is vital for good overall health. Not only do omega-3s provide benefits for the heart, they also help support athletic performance and recovery.

BOSTON -- Josh Beckett didn't have his best stuff on Thursday night. And when your offense lets the opposing pitcher in Max Scherzer off the hook at the same time, it's awfully difficult to complete a four-game sweep against a lineup like that of the Detroit Tigers.
But that's exactly what the Red Sox failed to do on Thursday at Fenway Park, falling to the Tigers 7-3.
Beckett had only one strikeout in seven innings. And while he continued to battle, he saw some solid defense behind him that helped prevent him from allowing more than four runs on 10 hits
"He gave us a chance to win the game," said Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine after the loss. "I don't know that that was his best stuff. It seemed like he didn't have his curveball until the sixth inning. He made some pretty good pitches, and they hit a few of them for hits. He did a good job of keeping them at bay."
Beckett agreed with not having his curve ball in this one.
"I made some pitches when I needed to, and didn't make some other ones," said Beckett afterwards. "You have five pitches in a game that you have to make, and I think I made three of them today. The other two cost me three runs in one inning.
"I don't think I had my curve ball to put guys away. It was difficult for me to get the ball down."
Beckett wasn't awful for a guy that didn't have his best stuff, but on a night like that, you need some big defensive plays, and that's exactly what Ryan Sweeney provided in the top of the second inning to keep it a scoreless game at the time.
With runners on second and third and one out, Jhonny Peralta put a fly ball down the right field line, and Sweeney came charging in after it at an awkward angle because of the side wall. But he was able to make the catch and throw a seen into home, one-hopping the ball to Jarrod Saltalamacchia, who then made the tag on Delmon Young.
"I thought he made a great adjustment to round it out to get behind the ball and throw it right down the line," said Valentine. "A good defensive play."
"I've always prided myself on my defense and making accurate throws to bases," said Sweeney. "So when I made that throw, I felt like I had a good shot of getting him."
But as good as that defensive play was and may have saved him a few more runs, a couple bad bounces on throws to second from Saltalamacchia turned out to be costly. And when your starting pitcher doesn't have his best stuff, those bad bounces aren't going to help anybody.
Except for the Tigers, who took advantage of the two throws that ended up in the outfield while stealing second, and eventually taking third.
The first came in the fifth inning, as Quentin Berry stole second. Saltalamacchia's throw was on target, but hit a diving Berry and shot out to left field, sending Berry to third, and eventually home on a Miguel Cabrera single that gave the Tigers a 4-3 lead and ended up being the game-winning run.
Saltalamacchia's other throw to second that ended up in the outfield came in the ninth inning, as Cabrera stole second. The throw ended up in center field, and Cabrera took third, only to score on a Prince Fielder triple to give the Tigers a 6-3 lead.
"The last one, Saltalamacchia didn't get a good grip on it, and Cabrera caught us all by surprise," said Valentine. "I think Mike Aviles was a little late getting there, and Saltalamacchia was a little late throwing. The first throw would've been right on the bag."
Beckett didn't have his best stuff, and those plays ended up costing the Red Sox.
Beckett battled, but didn't have 'best stuff'

Imagine - no cooks, convenience-store clerks, no skilled trades workers, no buses or taxis, no dock workers to offload oil, no truckers to deliver oil to refineries, no processors to turn the oil into gas. It's a wonderful plan, if we can just implement it. It would bring the government and the oil industry to their knees and send a message that "we're mad as hell and we're not gonna take it any more."

Cary, NC (PressExposure) September 11, 2009 -- What UL Standards apply to my product? This is a typical question for first-time product designers and builders. For individuals and companies new to product safety, these training courses have helped to learn how to submit a product that will pass evaluation and testing. This is the phase where unexpected delays can cause re-design and re-submittal to the testing laboratory.
Product safety training programs can be conducted at the CertifiGroup training facility in Cary NC, or at the manufacturerâs location. These programs can be customized to suit a particular manufacturer and product, and range from non-technical (For sales teams and management) to highly technical for designers, prototype builders and manufacturing engineers. Some of these courses include hands-on evaluation and testing with experienced product safety engineers.
This type of training is not generally available, and there are no university or technical school courses that teach product safety and regulatory. Being prepared can save a great deal of money, and make the difference between a timely product launch, and delays that let the competition jump ahead. The CertifiGroup training program will allow your staff to learn how to design, build, and test products in advance of submittal to a testing laboratory. Some manufacturers do not have the facility or equipment to perform their own testing, however, they will be prepared for the design and prototype phases, and will have access to the CertifiGroup facilities.
Testing laboratories like UL (Underwriters Laboratories) will not provide design assistance and staff training. Instead, the burden of being well-prepared is left up to the engineering staff. If you have all the required materials ready (e.g. product or prototype, drawings, specifications), the testing lab will let you submit a product whether youâre ready or not. Of course, this can mean unanticipated delays, re-design and/or re-tooling costs, missed venture capital milestones, problems with investors etc. With help from the beginning, or anytime before laboratory submittal, these delays and roadblocks can be avoided.
CertifiGroup will provide free initial engineering evaluations for designers and manufacturers. This initial evaluation will include review of applicable product Standards, materials and component selection, engineering drawings and prototype / sample product safety overview. To sign up for this evaluation or to arrange product safety training, call CertifiGroup at 800-422-1651, or visit the website: http://www.CertifiGroup.com and submit a contact form.
CertifiGroup also regularly provides CE certifications (For Europe), SEMI S2 evaluations for semiconductor equipment, ingress protection testing, hazardous (Classified) location certification and field evaluations, generators, solar and wind turbine safety, medical and laboratory equipment. CertifiGroup was also an exhibitor at the Green NC Building Show, September 9th at the Raleigh Convention Center.

Any reason why there wasn't a single player or online campaign? I'm just curious the game is still awesome to me.
Shazam. Someone make me a new map.
The end.
Thanks for the update. It's just a shame there isn't an easier/cheaper way to make new maps or the community to make them, that's what gave Renegade more life, get Aircraftkiller on the case.
Even if the community did the bulk of the design work and just submitted the maps for quality control. I'm not even talking about new art for the maps, just a way for the community to set up there own tower/crystal/citadel/portal/lane locations on pretty much a blank canvas or pre existing one may prove interesting. I think it's new maps the game needs rather than new demigod's. Sure the bug fixes should be expected but any new content can't really be on the cards I know if there isn't a $ justification for doing so. Capitalism is a hard task master.
If the game came with a map editor / modding UI and the ability to download mods you don't have on the fly (think WC3), this game would receive the breath of life from God himself.
I agree. Would it not be easy to set that up?
Programming is hard work, and because the game is already out, it wouldn't be profitable to give it a big update like this. I trust SD would probably do something of this scale if they weren't joined at the hip with GPG for Demigod.
Well, I think that SD learned /alot/ by publishing Demigod. I think that Elemental will show a massive improvement from the mistakes that GPG made that SD has learned from (eg, they are writing the netcode from the ground up themselves instead of plugging in a random library).
Demigod did 2 things really really well:
- Balance
- Gameplay (it's so much fun to play).
Everything else... Elemental can benefit from and stuff.
Plus, we'll get a few good features through Elemental (like any improvements through Impulse Reactor).
gameplay = the 1 reason I'd think any of us are still around today.
I'm interested to see how Elemental will change the TBS genre.
I sincerely hope more is done with Demigod, a Map editor would go A LONG WAY.
As has been covered many times, the Maps are not created on a Tile system like Warcraft 3 and so we'll never see a Map Editor. They are created as complete 3D Models and use a file format that requires an incredibly expensive licence/program combo to utilise, essentially meaning only GPG can make maps for Demigod. Since Demigod's online community is very small, making additional Maps and additional Demigods past the two we've already received isn't cost effective for GPG. I doubt we'll ever see any additional content, which is quite sad
UNLESS - there was a big demand from the SP community who apparently have overwhelmingly purchased the game. Shame those folks aren't all that active in the forums, though.
Hahaha! Nice, now just get GPG to sign off on it.
I'm not sure enough people play Demigod for GPG to sign off on it. I'll be happy if they do, though.
Well, since we're taking single player, all they can use as a reference point is sales since most people who purchased Demigod don't play Multiplayer, and apparently Demigod sold quite well. It'll never happen though; Gas Powered Games do not support their products long term and Demigod is nearly a year old.
If I were to hazard a guess, I would say that online players probably outnumber singleplayer players at the moment. I would have a hard time seeing how people could still be playing it considering how easy the AI is.
Oh I agree completely, however Brad mentioned that only a small percentage of copies of Demigod ever tried to connect to the internet, leading to the idea that most people must play this in Single player. I would be hard pressed to only play this in single player, there's just not enough in it.
I beat tournament mode with the initial eight in two hours the day I got it. I was kind of disappointed until I went to the single player.
I'll tell you, being a gamer...its VERY hard to watch a non-gamer game.
It's much harder to watch someone do math who is clueless. Or program. Or write a paper. Or read out loud.
I like to know more about when you think the new update is coming
Sounds good
I will probably start playing Demigod more in summer. Those are my plans at least .
These are some good news!
I think there should be a real Singleplayer mode and/or campaign. Demigod impresses with nice areas and awesome characters and there should be a balance between singleplayer and multiplayer. The mythological stuff is really a good base for this. The current singleplayer mode is more or less disappointing and optionally in my opinion.
I got bored waiting for Elemental and spotted Demi-Gods.. Woah.. Cool game!
New Player. Whee.
Now that Elemental is right around the corner, maybe in the next few weeks demigod can get a bit of acknowledgement that it is not dead in the eyes of StarDock?

Fly Fishing Fresh Waters ...
The Rhodes, Barkly East area has superb fly fishing possibilities on approximately 150km of pristine mountain steams available to anglers. Many of the rivers and streams originate 9000 – 10 000 ft above sea-level and can be described as pristine, freestone and rock-based highland streams. Among the most popular are the Bell River, Kraai River, Bokspruit, Riflespruit, Sterkspruit, Kloppershoekspruit, Vloeikraalspruit and Langkloof River.
Wild River Trout
Trout in the upper reaches of these rivers eagerly rise to a variety of aquatic and terrestrial dry fly imitations. These fish average between 9 – 14 inches and are awesome fun to target on a lighter 000-3 weight outfits. The occasional 18 – 22 inch trout lurk in the clear pools of these upper reaches, requiring extreme stealth and a good guide to catch.
In the middle to lower reaches of these rivers, trout often also average 9 – 14 inches but more experienced fly fishermen that understand the habits of larger fish often encounter specimens of 18 – 25 inches, and these can be considered trophy fish. (The South African record wild rainbow trout of 10.2 lbs was taken from a river between Barkly East and Rhodes.) The trout in the rivers around Rhodes were introduced over nine decades ago and feed and breed naturally in the river systems. Rainbow and brown trout share these rivers with largemouth and smallmouth yellowfish, minnows, 'klip' barble and the occasional mudfish.
Indigenous Largemouth and Smallmouth Yellowfish
From October to March an abundance of smallmouth yellowfish can be found in the lower reaches of these rivers. These fish come up in the summer months into the tributaries of the Orange and Kraai Rivers for their annual summer spawning run. The more common smallmouth yellowfish average between 1 ½ – 4 lbs with the occasional fish reaching 6+ lbs. Sight fishing to these awesome, indigenous fish in clear mountain streams can make a fly fishing trip to Rhodes a memorable experience.
The largemouth yellowfish are rare and elusive and extremely rewarding to catch. Specimens that average 3 – 5 lbs are often caught on sections of the Kraai River and tales of monsters up to 30lbs have been told in local pubs and bars in the past.
The smallmouth yellowfish regularly take selective dry flies off the water surface, but nymphing is still the most productive way to hook and catch them. Early in the yellowfish run, shoals of moving fish 4 to 30 strong can often be heard or seen whilst crossing rapids from one pool to another. Recently dry fly fishing to the smallmouth yellows with sawfly adult larva patterns and beetles from December to March in these rivers has proven highly successful.
Trout in Lakes and Dams
The lakes in our area contain a very high PH level and biomass. Both rainbow and brown trout can be caught on fly and trophy fish of 8 – 12 lbs are not uncommon and tend to be ferocious fighters. Fish in the lakes and dams feed naturally and can be caught from the banks as well as from float tubes and kick boats.
The dams, except for one or two larger ones, average between four and six hectares. Prolific hatches of trico, buzzers and blue damsel occur in the summer months, which is when the waters come alive with rising trout at dawn and dusk. Trout are stocked as fingerlings and fend for themselves naturally thereafter.
The aesthetically beautiful mountainous region of Barkly East and Rhodes is distinguished by its most pristine, unspoilt, trout fishing areas in Africa. Many anglers leave our area satisfied and vow to return to sample more of the seemingly endless fly fishing possibilities.

Q James Bond Movie
November 27, 2011 by staff
Q James Bond Movie, The 31-year-old – whose past movies include Bright Star, Layer Cake and Perfume – is the youngest actor ever to have been cast in the role, marking the first time the character is being played by an actor who is younger than James Bond.
He will join Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe and Ralph Fiennes in the movie, which began filming earlier this month.
And news of his casting ends months of speculation over whether the character – who did not feature in either of Daniel Craig's previous outings as Bond – would return.
'Female fans will have more than Daniel to gush over now Ben's been cast as Q,' a source told The Sun. 'He'll be a big draw.
'It's a bold decision as it means Q will be younger than Bond for the first time. His role will be very different from previous Qs. He'll be far more serious, as is the trend with the new films.'
Q was most famously played by Desmond Llewellyn, who made his first appearance in 1963′s From Russia With Love.
He played the part for the next 36 years' worth of Bond films, his last appearance being in 1999′s The World Is Not Enough which premiered just a few weeks before he died in a car crash.
John Cleese subsequently took over the role of Q in 2002′s Die Another Day but the character did not feature in the two most recent 007 adventures, Casino Royale and Quantum Of Solace.

As a business owner or executive, you know that a well-qualified, experienced CFO is one of the most valuable assets in your organization.
An exit strategy is a plan for passing on responsibility for running the company, transferring ownership and extracting your money from the business. This requires planning well in advance of the transition.


text: I'm finally gonna do it. Finally gonna play the Mother series. I'll of course be emulating them, on my desktop (and tv that's hooked to it). Obviously, Mother 3 and the fan translation is a no brainer. I'll be playing Earthbound since it's native English and not a translation, and I think SNES will display better than super-scaled GBA. My main question, though, as far as Mother 1 gameplay goes, do I go with Mother 1 and the fan translation off of Mother 1+2 GBA, or do I go with Earthbound Zero? I know EB0 is harder, which doesn't phase me much, I've played it a little; text is a bit Engrishy though, but music is original. Mother 1 GBA though, much better translation, better gameplay (isometric as opposed to tile based, from what I hear, though I don't specifically have memory of EB0 being tile based either...) but I heard some of the music is swapped out and not as good as the original. Also, I have it up on my TV right now, and it doesn't scale as nicely (poor eyesight and sitting 15 feet away ought to fix that though). What do you guys recommend? I'm gonna start on Mother 1 tonight, GBA version, but if I should then I'll switch to EB0. Also, is EB0 a complete game? The prototype was finished by someone after it was dumped, right?

text: The author explores basic elements of inquiry, including the open-ended attitude, the focus on direct knowledge, the experience of not-knowing, and the process of questioning. He describes the experience of "Diamond Guidance"—the inner wisdom that emerges from our true nature—and how it can be realized and applied. In this process Almaas looks at many of the essential forms of Diamond Guidance, including knowing, clarity, truth, love, intelligence, compassion, curiosity, courage, and determination. Also included are exercises and questions and answers from the original talks by Almaas on which the book is based.

Here we are. Gevorg Grigoryan, doctor, urologist, president of the Armenian Association of Young Doctors, and… advocate of anti-gay violence.
Says Gevorg Grigoryan: 'They [gays] should be burnt.' There should be total mobilisation to "fight fag*ots". 'We should not let them procreate'.
Calls for beating, physical violence against gays and ultimately killing, as per Facebook screenshots of his comments (below, in Armenian).
"I will always be the one who will fight against homosexuals" [using derogatory Armenian word to refer to gays], calling LGBT people and their allies "grant seeking animals", while the organisation he is heading aims at getting grants from international organisations ["- Միջազգային կազմակերպությունների կողմից առաջարված գրանտային ծրագրերի մասնակցություն"].
In a screenshot above, he confirms his anti-gay comments saying he is "proud" that he is against "perverse" people and "does not regret" what he said.
The Armenian Association of Young Doctors he is heading is holding a conference (6-7 November 2015, Yerevan, Armenia) re "health related quality of life", and the conference is sponsored by number of organisations and pharma companies, including Bayer Healthcare. [other sponsors listed are Unipharm, Prom-Test Laboratories, Recordati]
I want to believe that they are not aware of the views of the president of the organisation they are sponsoring. Well, now they know.
I expect immediate actions from sponsors, and particularly Bayer Healthcare, by distancing themselves from this group, and withdrawing sponsorship.
Ethics Code of Recordati group offers "equal employment opportunities without discriminating on the basis of race, gender, age, sexual orientation, physical or mental handicaps, nationality, faith, politics or trade union membership".
Bayer specifically stresses that they will not fund "organisations that discriminate on bases of race, color, creed, gender, sexual orientation or national origin".
Time to amend mistakes in relation to this Armenian organisation.
And in future, I call international medical, healthcare organisations, pharma companies, health/medical related groups and individuals in Armenia, Diaspora and elsewhere to boycott this and similar groups.
Not only Gevorg's comments are in contradiction with all possible ethical and professional norms that any doctor should uphold, but they border with criminal activity as clearly contain hate speech and calls for physical violence.

Celebrity advocacy is not a new concept, and it's one that's been debated consistently. Who really benefits from it? Their personal brand? Are they really changing policies? When we talk about actress Patricia Arquette, there's really no question in regards to her role in activism. And that's why she's our Badass Bitch of the Week.
"I know that I've had a very fortunate life, but also I think my job as an actor is to connect emotionally to human beings," the Boyhood star told Mother Jones last year.
That connection has led the 46-year-old to supporting causes that range from equal pay to trans rights and breast cancer awareness. Her latest form of activism? Joining a United Nations initiative called the Equal Pay Platform of Champions, which aims to close the gender wage gap.
In an interview with the UN, Arquette revealed that her reason for joining the initiative, which was launched this week by UN Women and the International Labor Organization, came from her mother, who died of breast cancer in 1998. The Academy Award-winning actress recalled her mother being unable to divorce her father because she would lose her health insurance and would not be able to afford cancer treatment. "Once you are six months out of a relationship with that man, you are kind of invisible," she said.
But Arquette's fight for equal pay started during her Oscars acceptance speech in 2015, when she famously said this: "To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation, we have fought for everybody else's equal rights. It's our time to have wage equality once and for all and equal rights for women in the United States of America."
Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lopez cheered, clapped, and screamed, "Yes! Yes!," turning the speech into a memorable GIF and an even more unforgettable acknowledgment of the wage gap that exists in and out of Hollywood.
Arquette's portrayal of a working single mother in Boyhood, the 2014 coming-of-age film directed by Richard Linklater, not only earned her a gold statuette for Best Supporting Actress, but brought to light issues surrounding women playing the role of family breadwinners in America. "The way I felt was: Why is it acceptable that millions of women are paid less, they don't have violent crimes investigated properly, they're turned away from domestic abuse shelters with their children in tow, and then sent back to people that murder them or break their necks or bones or teeth," she said in the aforementioned Mother Jones article.
Last year, she lost her sister, Alexis, a transgender actress, cabaret performer, and activist. In the wake of a devastating loss to AIDS, Arquette asked for donations for LGBTQ organizations instead of condolence flowers.
In the fight for equal pay, Arquette has pioneered a new wave of activism, joining other celebrities like Emma Watson and Angelina Jolie, who have also worked alongside the UN.
"It's not just conceptually the correct thing to do—it's the thing we must do as a nation. When the woman is getting paid drastically less than the male, that whole family is impacted."
Arquette's activism reads like a personal biography. She dedicates her charity to causes close to heart, making it clear that celebrity activism does not, at least in some instances, have to be fake. It doesn't have to save the world or monetize on it. Instead, it can just do the right thing.

Jalpaiguri/Raiganj, March 16: Six administrative officials, a civic chief, a deputy superintendent of police and seven policemen were injured in two incidents of violence in north Bengal during the bandh today.
In Raiganj, North Dinajpur, around 250 Congress supporters barged into the chambers of the executive officers at the district collectorate and ransacked them around 9.30 am. They assaulted Dibyendu Das, the subdivisional officer, and dragged out Soumyajit Dutta, the deputy district panchayat and rural development officer, and Prabhat Chatterjee, a deputy magistrate, before beating them up.
They also attacked Ethena Majumdar, the officer-in-charge of the establishment section, and Chiranjib Ghosh and Asok Modak, both deputy magistrates. All of them were injured.
There were not enough policemen to stop the bandh supporters from entering the collectorate, said Pradip Kumar Sengupta, the district magistrate of North Dinajpur.
Representatives of the West Bengal Civil Service Executive Officers Association have demanded the arrest of the perpetrators of the attack within 24 hours, failing which they have threatened an indefinite cease-work from Monday. Dutta, who had suffered injuries on his head and limbs, is under treatment at Raiganj Sadar Hospital. The others have been released. A complaint has been filed with the police.
Shambhu Chakrobarty, the district secretary of the coordination committee a CPM body alleged that Congress supporters had also manhandled three staff members working at the collectorate.
Justifying the act, Pabitra Chanda, the Raiganj Town Congress president, said: Chiranjib Ghosh threatened our supporters when they sought permission to enter the magistrates chambers and request them to leave office. His attitude annoyed them.
While the Congress turned villain in Raiganj, it was the SFI and DYFI the CPMs student and youth wings in Jalpaiguri, that entered into a brick-battle with bandh supporters.
Congress workers led by Mohan Bose, the chairman of the Jalpaiguri municipality, had assembled at PWD More along with supporters of the Trinamul Congress, SUCI and the CPI-ML.
At 11.30 am, a rally of SFI and DYFI workers approached the crossing when suddenly some of them started pelting us with stones, injuring Bose and some others, said Biswaranjan Sarkar, the Jalpaiguri district Congress president.
They attacked the police too, Sarkar added.
This left Swapan Kumar Das, the deputy superintendent of police (headquarters), Dhiman Sarkar, the acting inspector-in-charge of Kotwali police station, Tirtha Bhattacharjee, a sub-inspector, Mary Bhutia, the officer-in-charge of the womens cell, and four constables, including a woman, injured. Two passers-by were also not spared. The Congress has planned to observe Protest Day in Jalpaiguri district tomorrow against the incident.
The injured policemen were taken to Jalpaiguri Sadar Hospital while Bose was admitted to a private nursing home.
Though the police dispersed the crowd for the moment, the tension continued. A little later the Congress, which had gone to lodge a complaint at the Kotwali police station, and the SFI and DYFI supporters, who were at the Samajpara area close by, started exchanging bricks and abuses. The police intervened once more and the issue ended with charges and counter-charges from both sides.
Subhasish Das, the SFI district secretary of Jalpaiguri, blamed the Congress for the clash. We were carrying out a peaceful rally when they suddenly attacked us. Two of our supporters were also injured, he said.
Tapash Das, the additional superintendent of police, Jalpaiguri, said: We are on alert. The situation is under control now. Policemen have been deployed across the town.

The online number generator can generate combinations for a wide variety of lottery and lotto games worldwide. The ActiveX control has been greatly upgraded to cover the multistate European lottery game known as Euromillions. Euromillions is a special two-in-one lotto game. It draws five regular lotto numbers (from 1 to 50, as of 2016) from the first chamber. Then, the second machine draws 2 balls (Star Numbers), also like regular lotto numbers (from 1 to 11, as of 2016). The last two numbers are different from each other, but any can be equal to any of the five regular numbers.
There is one restriction, however. The IonSaliuGen online number generator runs only in Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4 or later. It comes bundled with the Windows operating system.
Version 7.0 of the ActiveX control generates 1000 Euromillions lottery combinations in a text box. The combinations can be saved to files, using the Save button. The text box is a capable online editor: select, copy, cut, paste, undo, select font, edit, print, save to file… The control buttons boast now tool tips – a useful feature for newcomers.
The super generator implements superior inner (innate) filtering for lotto games, including Powerball, Mega Millions, Euromillions. The Saliusian filters are founded on the most significant parameters of probability theory and statistics. You'll notice on your lotto cards. The patterns follow more closely the patterns of real lottery drawings. Read details: Geometric, Non-Random Patterns on Lotto Play Slips, Cards, Grids.
The user clicks on the button labeled EuroCombs, and enters the parameters specific to the game; e.g. 50 for the Biggest regular number and 11 for How many Star Numbers.
Click on the button labeled EuroOdds to calculate the jackpot odds for the Euromillions game. The module also generates purely random Euromillionen numbers.
