I hate movies, I really hate them. I also hate people that bang on about them – "Oh you should watch Paterson", "Wow OMG Room is so good", "Holy shit guys – I, Daniel Blake is the best film I've ever seen." Leave me alone – I'm out here, hanging out in the lower regions of Rotten Tomatoes, having an absolutely great time. Surrounding myself with base shit, absorbing the pure, wondrous entertainment to be found outside the conventional. That's where the proper stuff is.
Normally, when a film has 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, people stay well clear, but actually, do you know what, there are some pretty good movies with that badge of honour (and it is a badge of honour). And do you know what else what, I'm going to tell you which ones are definitely worth your time. So sit back, pop your wetsuit on and bathe in this beautiful, rancid stream of actually great films that nobody likes apart from me.
(And hopefully you)
1. American Ninja
I'm genuinely offended that this film has 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, like, actually gripping my chest and falling over offended. American Ninja is an absolute classic of B-movie action cinema. It's got it all: martial arts fights, cars exploding for no reason, men running into battle wearing only sleeveless tops and a great socking load of ninja stars. It's so much unabashed fun – just pure, unadulterated, shameless action.
While you're at it, you might as well check out all the sequels too – they are all good.
2. Deadly Friend
There are two Wes Craven films proudly holding 0% on RT, they are this one and The Hills Have Eyes Part 2. The second one deserves it (there's a scene in which a dog has a flashback, ffs), Deadly Friend does not. How can a film about a boy who implants his dead girlfriend's brain with an artificial intelligence chip and she comes back as a murderous robot homicidally intent on protecting him at all costs, be rated 0%? How can a film that contains the following scene:
3. Only The Strong
This is probably even more of a travesty than American Ninja being on here – I'm typing this from the floor again. For what it's worth, I reckon this is genuinely good – yeah, it's cheesier than a date with that fit Dairylea cow, but it's a right fun time because of it. Stupidly life-affirming almost-nonsense, you could call it, complete with actually-quite-good fight scenes. It stars Mark Dacascos, one of my favourite actors ever and star of the greatest film of all time, Drive(1997), and he's doing a load of silly capoeira to somehow kick everyone's arse in a rather fantastic fashion. Also, some more pretty impressive sleeveless tops in this joint.
4. Slaughter High
I don't know about you, but I like nothing more than a horror film about a bullied teenager coming back years later to get violent revenge on his classmates. You've got Terror Train, Valentine, Tormented, 976-EVIL and a bunch more – it's a pretty well-saturated market.
The thing most of these movies have in common is that they are Not Very Good, but purely by virtue of the revenge angle, they are regardless Very Satisfying. Slaughter High falls firmly into this bracket, and is therefore most certainly worth a watch, if you like being satisfied. It's an' 80s staple, so contains: needless sex, needless violence, a retro soundtrack and that sweet, sweet, oh-so-juicy refreshment that only revenge can truly bring. Quench me! QUENCH ME!
5. Jury Duty
OK, fair enough – your enjoyment of this film will entirely depend on your tolerance for Pauly Shore, who was an American MTV VJ that had a brief but rather large dalliance with the spotlight during the '90s. He was a bit like Jim Carrey, if Jim Carrey wasn't famous anymore, essentially.
The reason I've put this film on the list, which came out near the end of his short stint in the limelight (just before Bio-Dome – 5% on Rotten Tomatoes FYI), is because I really like Pauly Shore films, and this is A Pauly Shore Film™. So yeah, it's A-OK in my book. Really, it's one of those un-reviewable films – if you like Shore, you'll like the film; if you don't, you won't.
I do, so I do.
6. TerrorVision
The annoying thing about cult movies, is that a lot of people change their mind about them. Often, a film will come out to terrible reviews, but will slowly gather a cult momentum as people discover and enjoy it away from the stuffy gaze of the original haters. Only thing is, sometimes those original haters reevaluate their opinion and pretend to like it. If you hated it, you are not allowed to like it all of a sudden. Hate it and keep on hating it, or like it and keep on liking it – don't change your mind because it's 'cult' now.
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that TerrorVision is a cult movie – when it was first released, it was hit with abysmal reviews, but now everyone likes it. Ignore the Rotten Tomatoes rating, and watch it simply for what it is: a dumb, stupid, surreal slice of technicolour nonsense with a hilariously rubber monster. And who doesn't like a hilariously rubber monster? I certainly do, because I have one in my [redacted].
7. Inferno (aka Desert Heat)
If we boil it down here, does any Jean-Claude Van Damme movie deserve 0% on Rotten Tomatoes? No, is the answer, but unfortunately there are currently three movies (none of which are Knock Off, aka the worst Van Damme movie) that can boast about it. They are: Derailed (should be at least 20%), The Order (maybe 21%) and Inferno, which actually deserves about 70%, if you're asking.
It's one of my favourite Van Damme movies, made in that weird period after his best films had been and gone, and before some of his recent bangers – the wilderness years, let's call them. This one has it all: Van Damme in a hat, Pat Morita (Mr Miyagi from The Karate Kid), Danny Trejo as a a character called Johnny Six Toes, Van Damme's bare arse and more spin kicks than you can spin a kick at. I mean come on, Van Damme's getting his arse out and you're giving him 0%? Have some respect.
8. House III (aka The Horror Show)
Now, House II also has 0%, and although it doesn't deserve it, I left it off the list because it's a bit bloody silly – I like it, but it's fucking dumb, mate. House III is also a bit dumb, like, but it's Taste the Difference dumb, it's Tesco Finest dumb, this… is M&S dumb.
Story-wise, this film has basically the same plot as the Wes Craven film Shocker, which involves a murderer being sentenced to the electric chair, but coming back to haunt the family of the cop who put him there. Shocker has 20% on Rotten Tomatoes, and is utter, utter shite, and House III has 0%, and is utter, utter gold.
It contains stupidly OTT gore, a talking Thanksgiving turkey and two of my favourite actors of all time: Brion James and Lance Henriksen. Did I mention the talking Thanksgiving turkey? I should mention the talking Thanksgiving turkey. I think I actually did mention the talking Thanksgiving turkey.
Also, it's entirely unrelated to both House and House II so you can skip them and go straight to this big boy.
9. Kevin and Perry Go Large
Look, if Ali G Indahouse can have 56% on RT, then this equally dated but still funny comedy can have that, too. I've nothing but fond memories of Kevin and Perry Go Large, and although I haven't seen it in a good number of years, the many viewings that I gave it as a teenager can't have been for nothing. I've never gone back to a film I once liked and changed my mind – this has never happened. All those films I once liked, I still like. This is watertight reasoning. The only thing that'll stop me liking a film is if the star or the director does something, you know, bad, but as far as I know, Harry Enfield and Kathy Burke are model citizens.
Please don't @ me if they're serial killers or something – don't ruin this for me.
10. Leprechaun 2
Out of the Leprechaun series (that's seven films including a remake), three have 0% on Rotten Tomatoes (somehow Leprechaun In The Hood, starring Coolio, has the highest rating of 33% even though it's hell on earth). I have picked Leprechaun 2 as the one to stick on this extremely arbitrary list, because I believe it to be the better than both parts 3 and 4. Also, it's the only 18 in the series, and if we're looking at horror films here, then you're probably going to want to go in that direction.
Look, it's a film about a tiny leprechaun killing people with magic while speaking in riddles – I don't know what you want from me. OF COURSE IT IS WORTH WATCHING.
11. Tekken
Video game adaptations are often very bad, we all know this – not so bad they're good, just bad. The problem is, they often try to do too much with the material – often, if they'd have stayed true to the spirit of the game and kept things simple, they'd have turned out alright. Like Mortal Kombat, for instance, the best video game adaptation of all time – it is a game solely about fighting and so they made the movie solely about fighting, therefore it worked.
This is why the Tekken movie is 'good'. Tekken is a game about fighting, just fighting, lots of fighting, punching, kicking, flipping, fighting; and Tekken is a movie about fighting, loads and loads of fighting. By not attempting to imbue any of the characters with much personality, and by neglecting to introduce an overly-complicated storyline, proceedings are limited to fighting, and therefore do not become bogged down with their own self-importance. It's basically like watching someone play the game, which is something I quite enjoy, actually. Fighting fighting fighting fighting.
12. The Stepfather II
Now, The Stepfather is a properly, actually, literally great movie with 86% on Rotten Tomatoes, and easily better than every other film on this list (see it, basically, it's so good), but to drop a full 86 percentage points down to 0 for the sequel is way too harsh. It's not as good as the first, but I still had a blast watching it – this particular type of home invasion horror-thriller is right up my street.
Re-shoots skewed the film away from the original director's vision, so it's a bit mixed-up in places, but it's still a good ole time at the movies, and Terry O'Quinn (Locke from Lost) is just as terrifying as before. This in no way deserves such a low score. Everybody is an idiot.
13. The Dentist (and go on then, The Dentist 2)
If you're not interested in watching a horror movie about a homicidal dentist, then I'm not sure what your prob is, buster. I mean, yeah, if the thought of drills boring into people's teeth in lurid close-up detail makes your knees wet themselves, then OK, I get it, but other than that – what's not to like?
The second one is even more disgusting, too, and only marginally worse – we're talking 3 or 4% less on RT, here. So why aren't you immediately watching it right now? Why are you still reading? WHY AREN'T YOU IN YOUR LOCAL VHS RENTAL ESTABLISHMENT ENQUIRING ABOUT COPIES? THE FILM ABOUT THE KILLER DENTIST PLEASE, YOU'LL SHOUT, THE DEATH TEETH-GOBLIN, DO YOU HAVE THE EVIL MOUTH-EXAMINER FILM, STAMP YOUR FEET, DEMAND THE HEINOUS HEALTH-PROFESSIONAL MOVIE, GIVE ME THE FOUL ENAMEL-BURGLAR MOVIE AND ITS SEQUEL, DO NOT STOP UNTIL THE PRECIOUS VIDEO CASSETTE IS IN YOUR HANDS, THEN TAKE YOUR BEN & JERRY'S AND LEAVE.

text: Digital Will Magic Johnson Buy Ebony And Jet Publisher? By Drew Grant|February 16, 2010 Share By Drew Grant|February 16, 2010 Share Rumor of the day: Magic Johnson, retired NBA superstar and mogul is in talks to buy Johnson Publishing Co., producers of African-American magazines Jet and Ebony. There were whisperings last year that Ebony may have been up on the auction block (publisher Kenard Gibbs bowed out in 2008), but considering that Jet rolled out a new redesign just two weeks ago, Johnson is doing everything in its power to make their titles look salable. This new rumor about Magic buying the paper can't hurt (the company wouldn't even need to change its name!): According to Bloomberg News, it's Magic's group that issued the statement "There's no definitive agreement," while Johnson CEO Linda Johnson Rice said she has never even had a discussion about Magic Johnson buying the publisher. Interesting power play…you'd think Johnson Publishing would be eager to see Magic's name attached to its title.

Whatever Happened To Satya Sai Baba - The Man Who Was God?
media and the internet that Satya Sai Baba of India was God himself.
Though he died only a year ago, the Baba has virtually disappeared from the world media, and from the minds and memory of most people who came to know about him, with hardly any mention even on the anniversary of his death.
Is it the media who should be really blamed for this forgetful ignoring of a Guru who had over 6 million followers when he died?
After all Jesus Christ and Gautham Buddha who are also credited with miracles and teachings, were not forgotten but loved, revered, remembered and worshipped for thousands of years before the advent of modern communications.
It is not surprising that no one, including the leading News papers, magazines and TV around the world want to remember or bring back the memory of Satya Sai Baba despite the $9 Billion assets he amassed during his life of 84 years, some of which he had spent on various charitable projects.
Despite the huge followings and philanthropic work, there was something not very honest and straightforward about this Godman who declared himself to be God and whose life was "dogged by controversy including allegations, never proven, of sexual abuse and charlatanism" as per a BBC report.
Whether he was God or not, at the minimum, he knew exactly what lead to the massacre of several young people in his Ashram one night and the serious allegations of sexual abuse brought out in the BBC report of 2004.
Satya Sai Baba chose to leave the earth by not leaving clear answers and an aura of suspicion and doubt in place of divinity. No God has ever survived in human memory with such questionablecredentials.
Perhaps this is the biggest reason why no one, including millions who believed in him, wants to talk about or remember Satya Sai Baba despite the numerous good causes he has supported with his immense wealth.
If his life and intentions were questionable even when he was alive, the intentions and behaviour of his relations and close people who have inherited the Trust with the immense wealth has done nothing to instil devotion and confidence in the Godman after his death.
Instead, they have only raised serious questions about their own integrity and intentions which has lead to public demand for take over and administration of the trust by the government.
Millions of his followers desperately want him to return to earth as Prema Sai before they lose their faith completely even as the fame and prosperity he brought to his village Putta Parthi seems to dwindle fast.

All that you need, to be a good sales person, is a good measure of knowledge of the product you are selling! The more you have it the better you will be as a sales guy. The deeper the Guru delves in to the matter, the bigger is the following. Whether it is the woman who sells fish in the market or the suave connoisseur you deal with in the diamonds section of a big name jewellery, it is the same knowledge of the product that will impress you.

I had no time though to remind me of fundamentals of marketing and sales and brush up on my product knowledge. I had to say something to the devotee who had stopped in front of me before he lost his patience and moved on. I had to somehow grab his attention before he lost his curiosity.
If I simply said Here is a leaflet which tells you everything, that would have suited us both. I can have the satisfaction of having achieved something great and the stranger in front of me a feeling of having escaped a Spanish inquisition! But that is not service to God!
I had to ask a question! My customer has to come out of the shock of being way laid and start using his brain. start thinking, start pondering for an answer. So I started asking something, in fact anything to get him to talk. Like where he is coming from, is it the first time he is visiting the temple. how log before did he arrive from India, is he married yet, any thing to strike a conversation.
I hate intruding in people's privacy but I had to get them to open their ears and eyes before they opened their hearts a bit.
Surprisingly it all seems to be working like in a trance! Suddenly everone seemed interested in what I had to say, except of course some hard core visitors who had gone through it all before with someone else!

No matter if you are trying to lose weight, gain muscles, or achieve some other results while exercising, you should know that you can't do it without proper food and help from a professional personal trainer. Exercising is a very important thing, and you should do it in the best way possible. If you do not have a lot of experience with it, then you should not risk exercising on your own.
The importance of exercising with a fitness coach is huge. A fitness coach is a person with necessary knowledge, skills, and license who can create a perfect working out schedule for you. He/she must be competent for creating necessary nutrition and workout plan for you so you could achieve the desired results. Also, a personal trainer will show you how to do practices properly, and he/she will show to you what workout you should do. All these things should help you achieve your desired goals, no matter what they are.
People usually hire Personal Trainer when they want to lose weight, gain muscles, or when they are training for some specific thing. No matter if you know something about exercising, you should not do it without help from a professional personal trainer. His/her help is always good. If you hire a personal trainer, then you will be able to learn new workout, reach the desired results quicker, you will be more motivated, and so on. There are many benefits of exercising with a fitness coach. Nowadays, you do not even have to go to the gym to exercise with your trainer. There are services, such as in home personal trainer, which can provide you with necessary exercising in the comfort of your home.
The in home personal trainers became very popular in the past several years, and there are many reasons for that. Nowadays, people are very busy, and they usually do not have enough time and motivation to go to the gym. But, if you hire the in home personal trainer, then he/she will come to your home whenever you want. That can be very helpful. First of all, you do not have to spend time driving to the gym. Then, you will not have to leave your little kids at home. Also, you will exercise without anyone around, except for the personal trainer. In that way, you will feel more comfortable and be more motivated because the personal trainer will pay his/her full attention to you. All of these reasons should be enough for you to decide to hire the in home personal trainer and try exercising in a completely different way.
So, if you want noticeable results while exercising, then you should know how to do it. A personal trainer is necessary if you want to exercise with results. With a proper food and workout schedule, you will be able to reach your goals. Find the personal trainer who has a lot of experience and knowledge, and hire him/her to help you reach the desired goals.

Safe and Effective Alternative to Drugs in Knee Osteoarthritis
Tumeric just as effective as ibuprofen.
Tumeric has been used for centuries as a spice in foods all over the world. It has just recently undergone a randomized controlled trail comparing it with ibuprofen in patients with knee osteoarthritis(OA). Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, have long been the first line of treatment in OA. Unfortunately NSAIDs are also among the top causes of liver and kidney problems in North America.
The study examined safety and efficacy of Curcuma domestica extracts in pain reduction and functional improvement in knee OA. Ibuprofen 800mg/day was give to one group while 2g/day of tumeric was given to the other for 6 weeks. The main outcomes for both groups were improvement in pain on level walking and climbing stairs, and functions of the knee during walking and climbing stairs. There was no significant difference in outcomes between the two groups, thus showing turmeric to be just as efficacious as ibuprofen. This is good news, especially with the potential risks to the liver and kidneys when taking ibuprofen over a sustained period of time.
My conclusion is that taking tumeric is the preferred, oral, first-line treatment choice in knee OA treatment.
Study is referenced from (J Altern Complement Med. 2009 Aug;15(8):891-7.)

Event Galleries
Check out photos from our recent events.
I came for the pristine white beach and fell in love with the candy bars. Yes, the more than a mile of beach fronting Henderson Park Inn is white, clean and uncrowded, but where can you find a refrigerator in your room stocked with free candy bars (and soft drinks and water)?
"Our guests are always commenting on the free candy bars," says Ryan Olin, innkeeper of the 35-room bed-and-breakfast that hugs the 208-acre Henderson State Park (with its 6,000 feet of undisturbed beach) along scenic Highway 98 in Destin. "I sometimes wonder if the candy bar isn't America's favorite treat."
Because each room has a bottle of wine and a bunch of grapes waiting for you, you don't have to settle for a soft drink with your candy bar. Just open the door leading to the balcony that faces the beach, and lift the cork on the bottle of wine. Relax as you sip your wine and slowly eat your candy bar. Feel the breeze, and take in the magnificent view of the unspoiled beach. So now you have a glass of wine, a candy bar and even a bunch of grapes. Maybe you should just stay in your room!
There is much more to love at the 2.5-acre adults-only resort than free candy bars and a pristine beach. Here you don't just get a muffin and coffee for breakfast. "We provide a free hearty breakfast," Olin says. "There is always a chef preparing omelets to order with about 10 fresh ingredients for your selection, along with cheese grits that even your mama would love –– if she's from the South –– and everything else you would expect to find on a first-class buffet.
"With a two-night [or longer] stay, there is also a free lunch buffet. Again, we think the selection is impressive with soups, salads, sandwiches, main-course selections and dessert." And he didn't even mention that beer and wine are free at the daily afternoon happy hour. "We ring a bell to signal the beginning of happy hour, and our guests don't have any problem finding their way to the thatched-roofed Tiki Hut Bar on the deck overlooking the beach," he says when asked for details about the unique happy hour.
Evening dining is offered in the Beach Walk Restaurant. Operated by noted chef Tim Creehan, who trained with Louisiana's famous chef John Folse and was the executive chef at Folse's Lafitte Landing in Donaldsonville before he moved to Florida, the kitchen serves gourmet food that would please the most cosmopolitan diner. The comfortable dining room overlooks the beach, and though breakfast and lunch are only for guests of the inn, dinner is open to the public. You have a choice of dining inside in air-conditioned comfort or outside on the porch, and if you are adventuresome, you can even ask for a table nearby in the sugary-white beach sand.
Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, Henderson Park Inn is owned by Dunavant Enterprise, the world's largest privately held cotton merchant with offices on six continents. It may seem unlikely that an international company such as Dunavant would be interested in owning an inn in Florida. "Having visited Destin, I knew it was ideally situated in the market for an upscale resort," says Dunavant Enterprise's Bill Hagerman, senior vice president for real estate. "When I located Henderson Park Inn, I knew it could be the heartbeat of something much larger to come. The very fact that it is adjacent to Henderson State Park makes it a premier location." He then proudly adds, "It's the best beachfront land in Florida."
How did a New England-style inn end up in Florida? "Bill and Steve Abbott, the original owners, grew up in Maine and loved the architecture of New England," explains Deborah Channel, marketing director of the property. "The Abbott brothers wanted to bring a little Northeastern Atlantic charm to the Gulf Coast, so they built their inn to resemble the ones they remembered from their childhood." An interesting tie to the Abbott brothers is the fact that the current innkeeper's father, Jim Olin, was the president of Abbott Resorts, the management company of Henderson Park Inn when the inn opened in 1992.
With high-rise buildings dotting the skyline along the 24 miles of the Emerald Coast, there is definitely something charming about finding a New England-style bed-and-breakfast nestled against a 208- acre protected park and hidden from the busy highway. While there is the feeling of being secluded, you are near the action that includes fishing, golfing (with 1,080 holes available), tennis (104 courts beckon) and tubing and canoeing at Blackwater River State Forest and Eglin Reservation, not to mention the designer outlet centers for those who consider shopping a part of a successful vacation.
And don't forget the free candy bars. They offer something sweet to end (or begin) your day of a bit of heaven on the beach.

A group of citizens identified a need in the community for safe and reliable after school enrichment programming that kept the children of the community safe and engaged during the hour when children are most vulnerable. In response to this need the Boys and Girls Club of Marshfield was established in 1999 and the Club was incorporated in 2000. The Board launched its first capital campaign with a goal of $500,000. The campaign was a success and in 2004 the doors to a 4,000 square foot storefront opened. Due to our rapidly growing membership, the Board embarked on a second capital campaign with a goal of $3.5 million in 2006 to construct a 17,000 square foot clubhouse that included a gymnasium, arts center, elementary games room, learning center, computer lab, kitchen, fields, a playground and teen center. The groundbreaking was conducted in September 2011 and construction was completed in May 2012. The new state of the art facility opened its doors in June of 2012. In just over a year our daily average attendance more than tripled, from 79 to 266 and this year we boast over 310 members per day. The larger facility allowed us to expand the programs we offer, serve more youth and extend our hours. Programs that are offered at the new Club consist of a comprehensive teen program, youth athletic programs, and expanded program opportunities in educational enrichment, the arts, and social recreational programs.
Our mission is to enable and inspire all young people to realize their full potential as productive and responsible citizens, as well as become tomorrow's capable leaders.

Welcome to Web Traffic Secrets
Highest Site Traffic Web Article
Need interesting matter on web traffic? Look no further. A web traffic is a fascinating topic to write on. We hope that you experience the same fascination reading this writing on web traffic. This article on web traffic was written with the intention of making it very memorable to its reader. Only then is an article considered to have reached it's objective. We had at first written a rough assignment on web traffic. Then after a few improvisions and enhancements here and there, we have ended up with this end product. The first impression is the best impression. We have written this article on web traffic in such a way that the first impression you get will definitely make you want to read more about it! We have tried to place the best definition about web traffic in this article. This has taken a lot of time, but we only wish that the definition we gave suits your needs. Free is good! Five Ways to Give Away Free Stuff and See Website Traffic Increase Everyone loves to get something for free. This is true of almost everyone who frequently surfs the web as well. Website operators are constantly looking not only for ways to attract new visitors, but also ways to keep them coming back. If you are looking for a way to increase website traffic, consider using a tactic such as the "Give Away". By giving away free stuff on your site, you will likely attract many more visitors. You can also keep these visitors coming back frequently by offering new free stuff each month. If you are interested in see the results of your website traffic improve, then consider using these five ways to give away free stuff. Donated Goods You may be interested in trying to give away free stuff on your website, but you may not be willing to spend your own money in doing so. If this is the case, there are options for you. You can always network with other companies who will essentially give you their products to showcase and give away from your site. Local businesses are the first place to look, as they usually are very willing to help fellow town citizens. You can also go to larger corporations if you know exactly who to contact and make sure they realize that they too would be receiving free advertising from allowing you to showcase their products. Usually you won't get enough products each month to offer to every visitor, so make sure you mention that only the first 30 (or the equivalent of products you have) visitors who sign up will receive the products. Monthly Contests Website visitors love contests and many of them are willing to visit the same sites each day just to enter to win something free. Therefore, by offering free stuff through a contest, you are likely to get visitors to return on a daily basis. Set the rules to state that each visitor can only enter once a day if you like. Purchase a good prize or get one donated and give it away to the random name drawn from the entries. This is a great way to get the attention of many consumers, especially if your prizes are extra interesting and worthy. Personalized Items The best way of gaining knowledge about web traffic is by reading as much about it as possible. This can be best done through the Internet. One interesting tactic is to give away merchandise with your website's name or your business's name on them. Items such as shirts, hats, towels, cups, and key chains are perfect for this task. The idea is to keep people coming to your site for free stuff as well as to look around. The extra perk with this strategy however, is to allow them to be your advertisers as well. If they wear one of these items out in public, there are likely thousands of people who will be exposed to your business passively. This is a great idea and can be done through many methods including contests or loyal customer incentives. Referral Prizes If you really want to spread the word on your website and get more traffic than ever, you should consider giving referral prizes. You can set your system up to allow each visitor to send an automated email from your site asking him or her to visit. If the visitor is willing to offer up 10 or 20 valid email addresses, then you can offer them a free prize. The prize can be as small or large as you wish. This is the perfect way to get more traffic while also rewarding those that are helping you along the way. Reminder Emails After you choose the method of how you plan to give your free stuff away, consider offering reminder emails to those who love to participate. You can offer initial free stuff to those that sign up, like a key chain. This is a great way to get that traffic to continue after the visitor's initial visit. You can remind them monthly that there are new things to see at your site and they will likely visit more often. You can also use this not only to remind them of free stuff being given away but also to tell them about deals or other offers you have for them as well. They are likely to forward these emails on to friends they think might be interested as well. We had started out on this mission of information on web traffic with lots of optimism. And we have also ended it in the same manner.

Why HIllary is Losing, or, Just Another Night in the Kakadu Bar
I learned something the other night about East Germans' love/hate relationship to the German chancellor Angela Merkel. And at the same time something about Hillary's showing in the primaries.
I was putting on my Deutschland-Quiz show in the legendary Kakadu Bar in front of an audience of about 100 or so (I was told). The Kakadu Bar was legendary in the DDR and is still a great bar, with great seating and lots of bars and the music was great, the whole thing, I loved it, and the audience was great. They say Saxons are very closed-mouthed, but these guys were very involved in the show and had a great sense of humor.
The highlight of the show was when I asked for candidates someone pointed to a guy next to them and when I got him on stage he looked strangely familiar. Stocky, bearded, gemuetlich. I thought: "This can't be that Emmerich guy, can it?" Gunther Emmerich is a famous East German opera singer and TV show host who was a big star in the DDR and had a couple of major TV shows after the fall of the Wall, too... and, I found out later, happens to live near the Kakadu Bar. I asked him his name and he said in a deep, sonorous voice that is well-known in Germany: "Emmerich."
So now I can say I had the great Gunther Emmerich on my stage.
After the show I had a drink with Jork, the other male candidate of the evening, and we got to talking about Angela Merkel. Merkel is, of course, not on Germany's first female chancellor, but also its first East German chancellor - which is kind of like having a first woman president and a first black president all rolled into one. Merkel belongs to the conservative CDU party and while the sitting, liberal chancellor Schroeder was getting points and votes by saying "No" to Bush and the Iraq War, Merkel traveled to Washington and met with Bush, which was interpreted as a sign of sucking up to him.
"That hurt", said Jork. "It hurt so much to watch he do that - to disregard any moral principles for votes." He was torn - he wanted so much to have an East German chancellor - it was really the big chance for East Germans, who suffer from a certain lack of self-esteem and are considered to have lost the Cold War and have been "subsumed" by West Germany rather than "joined".
When it came time to vote, he said, he had to drink something first before going to the voting booth. Then he voted against her. He couldn't vote for her after that. "But it hurt", he said. And a lot of his friends, he said, had the same dilemma - voting against the candidate you want most out of moral considerations, or just because you feel betrayed.
I'll bet there are a lot of women in the States who in the past months have had a similar experience.

Here are a just a few examples where patterns which appear to hold, start to fail for large numbers. Of course, as humans, we have a biased view of "large" in the context of numbers.
- Consider the sequence, 12, 121, 1211, 12111, 121111, … etc. Are they all composite? Well the first 100 are. Is that enough evidence to be confident that they are all composite? Nope—you can find the first prime number in the sequence yourself, or see this post by Alon Amit, with this and other much better examples.
- Primes at most x are more often congruent to 2 mod 3 (as opposed to 1 mod 3) until x=608, 981, 813, 029. (I.e., more than 600 billion. See page 203 of "A Friendly Introduction to Number Theory" by Silverman, 4th edition).
- Fermat numbers, of the form, 2^(2^i) + 1 were known (by Fermat) to be prime for i=0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. So that's only 5 numbers. But the fifth one, 65 537 is so big! Perhaps this influenced Fermat's unfortunate (or perhaps fortunate?) decision to conjecture that they are all prime. Perhaps he even had a guess regarding the significance Gauss would find for his primes 150 or so years later. Well the next (at least) 28 Fermat numbers aren't prime. Maybe there's none others? (How embarrassing would that be?) Here is "compelling evidence" by Boklan and Conway that the ONLY Fermat numbers that are actually prime may be the first 5 Fermat numbers. Of course, since the paper of doesn't prove that there are no more Fermat primes, it's inclusion here is perhaps ironic. So it is currently conceivable that Fermat's conjecture was not merely incorrect, but spectacularly so… Naturally it was the great Euler who originally factored the first composite Fermat number; 2^32+1=641×6700417.
- However, even the great Euler had his own, almost maximally incorrect conjecture. Indeed, he hypothesized that there are mutually orthogonal Latin squares of order n if and only if n is not 2 mod 4. It turns out that there are none for n= 2 (this is trivial), 6 (this is hard, and surely where Euler put in some effort); but there is one for all other values of n. (Together, Bose, Parker and Shrikhande showed there are mutually orthogonal Latin squares for all even n congruent to 2 mod 4, n>6). (See p. 122 "Introduction to Combinatorial Designs", Wallis, 2nd edition).
- Graph labeling problems are a great place to find other potential "maximally incorrect" conjectures. Gallian has a wonderful survey of recent work, progressing so fast that it would otherwise be quite difficult to keep track of it.
Here's one of personal significance: Conjecture 1 from this beautiful paper of Gray and MacDougall is very reminiscent of Euler's conjecture.
The main part of this conjecture is that certain graph labelings exist; but the negative part–that some don't–fail, completely, as soon as they stopped checking! Here's the constructive proof. (I'm still proud of this contribution, with Jeremy Holden and James McQuillan.)
- Another example (this one famous) involves the product of sums of squares with a strikingly wrong conjecture. After Degen provided a formula for showing that the sum of 8 squares multiplied by the sum of 8 squares is again the sum of 8 squares, he believed, quite incorrectly, that there were similar larger formulas for sums of 2^k squares for any k.
Hurwitz proved that the (bilinear) formulas for sums of 2, 4, and 8 squares known to Degen were the only ones. Oops. (The analogous formulas for sums of 2 squares and sums of 4 squares are also significant for complex numbers and quaternions, respectively
- The circle division problem is often used as an excellent example of how small examples may suggest a striking, yet incorrect answer.
Given n points on a circle, a chord for each pair; chords divide the circle into how many regions? (The maximum number possible). For n=2, 3, 4, 5, 6 it's 2, 4, 8, 16 and— 31. That's 31 regions, not 32. The answer is the sum of binomial coefficients (n,4) + (n,2) + 1. It's so tempting to think it's a power of 2.
Here is an excellent video for this example by Grant Sanderson.
8. So now we wonder about our research:
The crossing number of the complete graph with n vertices is conjectured to be the square of a particular binomial coefficient for n odd. This seems very compelling, partly just because a binomial coefficient is a really simple expression for such a complicated question.
More precisely, if n=2m+1, crossing # of K_n is conjectured to be the square of the binomial (m,2). It's true for many drawings, e.g., these ones.
And yet, the smallest unknown case is just m=6. With Pan and Richter, we provide a few clues for the first unknown case. My best shot at understanding so far, (with Richter, and work that I'm very proud of) is summarized here.
I expect this conjecture will be verified for m=6, but (personally) feel very unsure of the conjecture beyond m=6.
So in conclusion…
I hope you get the idea. When mathematicians seem obsessed with rigor, it is at least in part due to our history of making mistakes, seemingly every time we tried to jump to a conclusion. But perhaps there's something more. So for that, we end with a quote from William Thurston:
what we are doing is finding ways for people to understand and think about mathematics… what they really want is usually not some collection of of 'answers'-what they want is understanding.

I am so very, very excited to be co-hosting the CheersFest 2.0 this year! The other co-hosts are Mark Koopmans, David Powers King, Stephen Tremp and our own celebrity, Alex Cavanaugh. The 2013 recipient as you know is the FABULOUS Arlee Bird.
To join in on the fun, sign up on the linky list below. For the "rules," click here. :)
Now on with the roasting!
Four Questions:
Why did Lee come up with the A-Z Challenge? Definitely because Lee knew Madman Mark would come up with the "Got Green?" bloghop, so Lee had to make a splash before Mark outshone him.
If someone dreams about being a juggler, what does it mean? Ooo... I love dream questions. I think it means your life is in absolute chaos and it's time to a) join the circus b) create an insane month-long bloghop or c) wear lots of Hawaiian shirts, straw hats, and sun glasses ;-)
Is a post by Mr. Bird worth two in the bush? Absolutely! And more. Lee is so REAL. He definitely is a strong motivating force in this community. I enjoy all his posts.
Who could play Lee in a documentary? Hmmm... let me go google a few names... Okay I'm back. I'm thinking Sean Connery or Richard Gere?
100 Word Flash Fiction: (Using the words: Bird, Juggler, Challenge, Brown Jacket, and Tossing)
Mr. Bird took a whiff of his cigar and kicked back in his recliner chair. He was ready for his next challenge. Already he had bested the blogging community into thinking he was the notorious Alex Cavanaugh. But it wasn't enough. He wanted to be more. More than a juggling ninja.
And lastly, my caption for Lee's Facebook picture:
And I hope you guys are all doing wonderful. It's been quite the end of the year. Can't wait to catch up.
Red. Head. Out. :)

The January criminal assizes came to an end last week Wednesday with the completion of only 12 of the 134 cases that were listed for trial between the two (2) criminal courts in the country.
ccording to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecution, a total of 10 matters are still pending sentencing, which means that a total of 112 matters will be traversed to the next assizes scheduled to commence on April 5.
During a brief ceremony held at the No. 1 High Court in St. George's last week Wednesday, the presiding Judge, Justice Shiraz Aziz, pointed to certain "limitations of the court and its resources," contributing to the slow pace of dealing with matters.
He said that although only a small amount of cases were completed a lot of work was being done "to ensure that cases are dealt with fairly, efficiently and effectively."
Justice Aziz indicated that some of the cases had to be adjourned due to a lack of expertise and also referenced a major setback in cases at the No.1 High Court, due to a strange smell that was emitting from the Juror's room that caused jurors to feel nauseous.
"A lot of the cases that came before this court, we had adjourned because expert assistance were required. There isn't a great pool (of experts) in Grenada so we had to source experts outside of the country," he said, adding that "it takes time and money."
"We are working with the budget that we have," he remarked.
Justice Aziz cited a greater need to "use technology to hear matters via video conferencing," which he felt would save a lot of time and money.
"We need to move in that direction…where everything would be done openly," he said.
Meanwhile, Crown Counsel in the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, Crisan Greenidge praised the police officers who ensure safety and protection; the jurors, who play an integral part of the criminal process and the genetics or forensic pathologists for their continued willingness to assist the court when called upon.
Greenidge also lauded the criminal lawyers, who, he said demonstrated willingness, when called upon by the court to assist offenders free of cost.
In the interest of saving time, the female State Prosecutor encouraged attorneys as they move towards the new term to identify matters that can be death with expeditiously.
Also addressing the ceremony was Criminal Attorney-at-law, Peter David, who echoed the sentiments of Greenidge, noting the dwindling number of lawyers practicing criminal law in the country.
He called on his colleagues to get involved in criminal practice as it would help the process move at a much quicker pace.
Several lawyers are reportedly not interested in criminal work at the bar due to the limited financial returns when compared with some civil court matters.
Meanwhile, Chief Officer at the Richmond Hill Prison, Rupert Neckles, told the Court at the close of the assizes that there are a total of 454 inmates currently housed at the country's lone prison facility.
Of this amount, he said there are 356 convicted males, 6 convicted females, and 2 convicted males from the sister isle of Carriacou, who also have other matters pending there.
Neckles disclosed that there are 40 males awaiting trial, while there are 19 appellants or persons who are appealing in a higher court the previous judicial decision taken against them, 4 judgment debtors, 4 juveniles (3 males and 1 female).
Additionally, there are 20 non-nationals including 1 Barbadian, 1 British, 1 Canadian, 11 Vincentians, 2 Jamaicans and 4 Guyanese housed at the prison.

We learn that there are even more connections between the main characters than we knew. I also like the fact that Fletcher is alive in this one and we get more of a feel for his character and how he shaped Gin and Finn into the people they are........

Hi Val! Lovely designs as usual. Well about your " get up and Go"- It may have gone on a holiday with mine! I am so disorganized at the moment. Doing or trying to declutter in the house, seems like there is more mess than ever before. I told DH today that there is a proverb " The longest journey starts with just one step" I will have to keep reminding myself. Of course there is always " flylady" on the 'net, but I will persevere!
I don't know if you read a lot, but I can recommend a lovely book- it is not a large "tome"- "Heaven is for Real" by Todd Burpo- a most uplifting book!
Have a lovely Sunday! your friend, Sandy. :)

In the old part of this city, on the block where people come to quench their thirst for beer and spirits, Ahmed Mahmoud pointed to the spot where blood flows more freely than alcohol.
There, masked men leaped out of two pickup trucks last Sunday evening and unloaded their Kalashnikov rifles at a group of sidewalk alcohol vendors, he and other witnesses said.
''I heard a lot of gunfire, a huge barrage of bullets,'' said Mr. Mahmoud, 20, a wiry man who runs a soda stand. ''It sounded like a gun battle between the alcohol sellers and the attackers.''
''I found the dead bodies,'' he added. ''There were bullet holes in their bodies, about five bullets in each body.''
Basra is becoming as dry as the endless desert around it. Nowhere in Iraq are attacks on vendors of alcoholic beverages as common as in the country's second-largest city, 60 miles from the Persian Gulf.Continue reading the main story
The attack on bustling Old Basra Street, which killed at least five people, was the latest and deadliest in a string of assaults on alcohol salesmen in a city where conservative Shiite movements and political parties are struggling for dominance, possibly with the aid of members of the police force.
Over the summer, stores were firebombed and destroyed with rocket-propelled grenades. A Christian salesman was shot dead on Christmas Eve. In a murky incident on Feb. 1, plainclothes policemen engaged vendors in a gun battle that ended with British soldiers accidentally killing two of the policemen.
The earlier attacks drove owners of liquor stores, both Muslim and Christian, to shut their shops and take their businesses underground, to places like the strip under an overpass on Old Basra Street.
After the attack last Sunday, the most potent drink in that area comes from Mr. Mahmoud's bottles of Fanta. The attack has made some black-market vendors take a second look at the risks of their profession.
One cowed salesman is Tarik Mahmoud, who drives around Basra delivering beer in his Chrysler minivan. ''I'm afraid now,'' he said.
''There are no laws that protect me, and even if a law existed, I would still be afraid because people are used to killing each other, and because the fundamentalists feel strongly about this issue.''
''I stopped after the killings this past Sunday,'' he added. ''I only sell now to people I absolutely trust. I'm thinking of quitting this business.''
Mr. Mahmoud, a Muslim, said he had an Armenian-Christian partner who buys huge quantities of beer in Baghdad and stores the cans around Basra. Alcohol sales are still fairly open in Baghdad, though violence there is on the rise. Several stores have been bombed recently and some owners threatened, and a vendor was shot dead in the Shiite slum of Sadr City in December.
Here in Basra, the mystery surrounding the latest shootings has grown each day. The streets are awash with talk that the men were killed by conservative Shiite groups.
Police officers said in interviews that the attackers were wearing police uniforms and pulled up in two police trucks, raising questions of whether the police are working with the religious groups to impose Shariah, the Islamic legal code based on the Koran, on the city.
One officer at a police station a quarter mile from the crime scene said the killers were members of an intelligence unit of the Basra police.
''Policemen working in intelligence attacked the alcohol sellers,'' Lt. Muhammad Salih said. There were about 10 vendors on the block at the time, he added.
A colleague, Lt. Ahmed Murtada, walked into the room and listened to Lieutenant Salih's conversation with a reporter. ''Please don't say it's the secret police,'' Lieutenant Murtada said. ''The suspects are unknown.''
But witnesses said the attackers pulled up in two police trucks and were wearing police uniforms, said Lieutenant Murtada, the officer in charge of the station on Sunday.
''We don't know what the truth is,'' he added. ''They were wearing police uniforms and had police cars, but whether they were the real police, we don't know.''
The intelligence unit of the Basra police is run by Lt. Col. Khalaf Badran, a former member of the Badr Brigade, and is tolerated by the British, who control this region.
The Badr group serves as the armed wing of the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq, possibly the country's most influential Shiite party. American administrators say they want to disarm the Badr Brigade, but its members are helping the police throughout Iraq maintain security, said Hassan al-Amari, the leader of the Badr group.
Capt. Shay Marks, a spokesman for the British military, said that he was unsure whether the public sale of alcoholic beverages was illegal but that its regulation ''sounds very much like policing business.''
The police have a blunt view of the matter. ''It's not Shariah and it's illegal,'' Lieutenant Murtada said. ''It's not allowed for people to sell alcohol in Islamic countries in the street. We warned them many times, but they didn't stop.''
During his pro-Islamic campaign in the 1990's, Saddam Hussein shut down bars and enforced a law forbidding Muslims to sell alcohol, but he allowed Christians to do so.
The British military has begun investigating last Sunday's attack. ''Every effort is now being made to determine who was involved and bring them to justice,'' said Maj. Tim Smith, a military spokesman, adding that five people were killed.
Contradictory reports of the incident have emerged. Lieutenant Murtada said six people were shot dead, including possibly some civilians.
Two witnesses, including a 16-year-old boy, Muhammad Issa, who was accidentally shot in the stomach, said the attackers did not have police uniforms but wore masks and drove up in pickup trucks.
Details of the incident on Feb. 1, which took place on the same block, are just as murky. A group of vigilantes had teamed up with plainclothes policemen to chase off the alcohol vendors beneath the overpass, Lieutenant Murtada said. A shootout ensued, and British soldiers fatally shot two policemen, he said.
Captain Marks said that the soldiers had unknowingly come across a plainclothes police operation cracking down on a ''criminal gang,'' and that the soldiers had fired on the police because they seemed to be ''posing the largest threat.''
Lieutenant Murtada said he did not know who the civilians were who were working with the police that day. Basra is a caldron of conservative Shiite groups vying for influence. Many people refer to some of them as vigilante organizations.
Names that come up often in such conversations include the Badr Brigade and the 15th of Shaban Party. The local leader of that group, named for the birth date of a mythical imam, denied any involvement in the attacks but had little sympathy for the victims.
''If a man is selling or buying alcohol, we must tell him it's a bad thing,'' said Muhammad Sharif al-Hachami, the local director. ''If he doesn't leave his job, then we must punish him with 80 lashings. Then he will forget about doing bad things.''Continue reading the main story

By the time your child is 5, more than 30 percent of his classmates will have tooth decay, which can be well advanced even by age 3. "Early preventative care is the key to keeping your baby cavity-free," says Elizabeth a. Shick, D.D.S., M.P.H., assistant professor of pediatric dentistry at the University of Colorado, Denver School of Dental Medicine.
Related: The New Mom's Survival Guide
But the tips you've heard from your mom and your mom's mom might not be the best plan of action today (like waiting until baby's older to use fluoride toothpaste): the American Dental Association recently changed their guidelines. Read on to learn the latest in tooth-care, plus timeless tips that keep your baby's teeth cavity-free.
Related: The Truth About Teething
Keep bacteria at bay. Before the first tooth erupts, wipe your baby's gums with a wet washcloth after every feeding. The Mam Oral Care Rabbit features soft rabbit "ears" that fit over your fingers so you can gently remove bacteria. ($6, amazon.com)
Brush early and often. Starting with the first tooth, begin a twice-daily routine using a soft infant brush. Place the soft rubber bristles of the NUK Grins & Giggles Infant Tooth & Gum Cleanser on your fingertip to "brush" your baby'steeth. ($7, amazon.com)
Use fluoride sooner than you think. Brush baby's first teeth with a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste as soon as teeth surface (instead of waiting until baby's older), according to the latest guidelines from the American Dental Association, which suggest an early start for optimal cavity prevention. The recommendation follows a new review published in The Journal of the American Dental Association, finding that fluoride toothpaste can reduce cavities in children under 6-years-old. Just make sure you use small amounts, to avoid ingestion.
Soothe sore gums. You can alleviate pain with teething rings, cold spoons or a cold wet washcloth or even a clean finger. If you choose a teething product, reach for one that doesn't contain the local anesthetic benzocaine; the Food and Drug administration recommends that parents not choose benzocaine products for children younger than 2 years old as its use can lead to methemoglobinemia, a rare but serious disorder in which the amount of oxygen in the blood stream is greatly reduced. Homeopathic Baby Orajel Naturals Quick Dissolve Teething Tablets are free of benzocaine, dyes and parabens. ($7, walgreens.com)
Even breast milk and formula can lead to tooth decay, so take your baby to a pediatric dentist shortly after she gets her first tooth (usually around 6 months) and no later than her first birthday.

Here comes the second part of our Roopkund Trek experience. The first post has been given earlier….
The Journey:
Our journey to Kathgodam, Uttarakhand was no less an adventure. We boarded the train from Delhi station which was 4 hours late. The train was totally packed and we managed to get our seats. The train started late and as usual got delayed on way too. We reached Kathgodam railway station at around 12:30 at the night!
The next day we reached Kathgodam Station where the cabs were waiting for us to take us to Lohajung, the base camp of Roopkund trek. Here we met some of our fellow trekkers with whom our bond became so strong during the trek! The journey towards Lohajung started through mountains and valleys. After 11 hours of long and arduous journey, we reached Lohajung at around 7:30 in the evening. Lohajung was at a height of 7600 ft. we were later briefed by one of our trek leads Manish and Salwat about the next 6 days ordeal. We were told that for the next 6 days, only physical strength will not be enough. Tremendous will power and mental strength was required to complete the trek.
"Fine, I have plenty of will power", I thought and was raring to go. But I was obviously totally ignorant about what a 6 day long Himalayan trek was about! Not only did it require will power, but my mental strength had to be stretched to the fullest to complete the trek. But once it was done, I was never the same person again. On retrospection, I think it was here where the traveler in me was born and I was never a tourist again….
Day 1: Trek towards Didina – The Teaser of Roopkund Trek
The day started with the morning whistle by our trek leader Salwat. We were soon ready for our day's journey. The trek started with mild walk along a rocky path and then gradually followed a jungle trail that descended downwards. We crossed an iron bridge called the Raun Bagad and soon heard the gurgling sound of water flowing. We finally caught sight of the clear waters of the Neel Ganga. It is the river in its purest form before it entered into the civilization. We filled up our water bottles from here, crossed the stream and started our trek further.
Next began our ascent towards Didina. Within 15 minutes I was totally out of breath, my legs were giving away and I simply felt that I could not walk any further. Indeed, will power was required to complete the ascent towards Didina. Well, ascent to Didina was just a teaser. More was yet to come.
We reached Didina village in the afternoon. We were welcomed by the villagers with red rhododendron juice. It was the most refreshing drink we had after such a tiring walk. The Pepsis and colas were nothing compared to the rhodo juice or the buransh juice as it is known in the local language.
Didina had a very beautiful home-stay. We had sumptuous lunch and then mingled with our fellow trekkers and the villagers. The team played dumb charades to digest the tiredness. The villagers here are so simple and innocent, unaffected by the external world. It was a tiring day for us and we were left with anticipation of what held for us the next day.
Day 2: Trek to Bedni Bugyal via Ali Bugyal – Roopkund Trek
This is said to be the toughest day of the trek. We started our uphill trek from the village leading gradually to a hillside. From here, the uphill trek was mostly through the forest. We were mostly out of breath because of gradual ascent. Our trek leader Salwat had to continuously motivate us during the stretch, and he did a marvelous job too. Because after what seemed like ages, we reached the Ali Bugyal.
We were totally mesmerized seeing the Bugyal. It is Asia's largest meadows and we could see endless green around. At a height of 11360 ft, it provided a 360 degree view of all the mountain ranges. We could see the Trishul and the Nanda Ghunti peak clearly. Who can remain tired after seeing the beauty of nature in this way… our tiredness vanished in a moment. We were given packet lunch here which was called "running lunch" by Salwat. We literally ran around the green stretches soaking in as much as we can.
Mountains seem to have a mood of their own. Suddenly the sunny weather changed and clouds seemed to descend from nowhere. We then started our journey towards through the green meadows enjoying the nature and seeing the cattle grazing.
Trek to Bedni from Ali was about 5 km following both uphill and downhill paths. As we descended towards the Bedni Bugyal, we saw the tents that looked like colourful specks on green stretches.
We were all tired and ran towards our campsite at the earliest. We were assigned our tents here by Salwat. Each tent had 3 members, but fortunately, only we two were assigned in one tent. Very soon we were being called the lucky couple and our tent "the Honeymoon tent" !!!!
We had a cricket match at the Bedni Bugyal. This is probably cricket played at the highest height close to 13000 ft. The match was stopped by sudden rains and we all ran into our tents for shelter. In mountains, you can never predict about the weather.
Day 3: Bedni Bugyal to Bhagwabasa
We were lucky to see the first rays of sun over the Trishul and gradually the golden rays of sun spreading towards the Chaukhamba ranges. It was a spectacular sight.
The trek started as usual and our first stop for the day was the Bedni Kund. The water in the lake is crystal clear and the reflection of the mountain ranges could be clearly seen in it.
A steep ascent followed after that and we could see some traces of ice on the way. We reached Ghora Lotani after a walk of about an hour or so. This place is so called because horses do not go beyond this point. The grassy terrain abruptly changes here to rocky patches. Our next halt was Pathar Nachauni where we had our lunch. It is the point where Goddess Nanda Devi had created the crates at the feet of the dancers. The three craters were quite symmetrically placed.
Our uphill trek started again. I kept slogging behind as my legs just wouldn't co-operate. It then became a test of my will power and determination. The stretch was narrow and rocky. It was a steep zigzag path towards our next destination Kalu Vinayak. The path seemed never ending, but our guides were telling us "just a little more and you will see the temple". We kept on walking but the temple was nowhere in sight. And when the Flag of Kalu Vinayak temple was seen, it seemed like a oasis to us. It had already become chilly and we hurried towards Bhagwabasa which was the camp for the day. The camps at Bhagwabasa were the most difficult ones as they stood on bare rocks.
At Bhagwabasa, we met a very interesting person, Dinesh. He joined our team as special instructor for the summit. He had already done Roopkund Trek 84 times before!!! I think he has completed his century by now! The Trishul could be seen very clearly from our campsite. The Trishul was playing hide and seek with us through the clouds, and together with the starry moonlit skies, it had us spell bound.
The weather was also chilly. Nevertheless we were tired, and after a quick dinner retired to our tents.
That all for now… The next post will follow soon…. Waiting eagerly for your comments.

Here are some more walks to add to those in my Cicerone guide Walking in Essex. The first is a longer walk; Paglesham is a stretch of coastline which I hadn't tried before the 2012 fieldwork for the book; the other three, one on the west of the county, one in the east and the other in the north, narrowly missed the final cut.

The idea to put together a tool like this came from a peer of mine needing to be able to identify material assigned to components.
In this post you can see the approach taken to doing this:
In summary, this tool allows for the creation and interaction of shaders in both object and component level. Users can copy and transfer shaders across objects. They can also empty shaders and reassign new objects to them, as well as deleting shaders and their shading groups.
Download script here
Watch video demo here
Here are instructions on how to use the tool:
First make sure to place the script in maya/scripts directory.
In Windows it's something like this:
C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2013/Python/lib/site-packages/
In Mac:
|lpMultiShaderTool v1.0- Live update of current shader
import lpMultiShaderTool reload(lpMultiShaderTool) lpMultiShaderTool.lpMultiShaderToolUI()
1. Assign New Shader to Selected:
Creates a new shader and shading group and connects to selected objects
2. Get Shader from Selected:
Copies the shader assigned to the selected object and stores it. Requires that only one object is
3. Add Shader to Selected:
Adds the current shader to the selected objects
4. Select All with Shader:
Selects all objects in the scene with the current shader
5. Remove All from Shader:
Empties shader, so that all objects previously shaded with it are now shaded with the default shader -
lambert1. Doe
6. Select All in Selected Shader: NEW
Selects all objects that have the same shader as the selected object without affecting the current
7. Switch All in Shaders:
Gets the shader from the selected object and assigns it to all the objects with the current shader.
Applies the current shader to all objects with the same shader as the selected object. In other words,
switches the objects from on shading group to the other.
8. Delete Current Shader:
Deletes shader and shading group for the current shader, and returns all objects previously with that
shader to the default shader: lambert1
9. Reset To Default Shader:
Assigns the default shader to all selected objects.

Previous coverage, resources about Idaho's health care gap
Congress passed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in 2010 and its mandates really came on to the radar of the 50 states beginning in 2012.
▪ A mandate to offer health insurance coverage — via a state-run exchange or by using a federal template — was debated in Idaho, but the Gem State ultimately decided to create its own exchange. Your Health Idaho came online in 2014.
▪ When the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on the constitutionality of the ACA in 2012, it also left open the option for states to decide how they would cover citizens who did not qualify for insurance through Medicaid — as well as those who could not afford to purchase coverage through one of the exchanges. It was assumed when the ACA was drafted that all the states would expand Medicaid to cover those "in the gap" because 100 percent federal reimbursement initially was offered to the states (diminishing and leveling off at 90 percent). More than 30 states have expanded Medicaid. Idaho has not.
▪ For several years Idaho has studied whether to expand Medicaid, do nothing and keep paying expenses out of its CAT fund, or create some kind of hybrid using state funds, federal funds or even some combination. That's where we are today.
Below find links to: the Statesman's ongoing editorial series "Uninsured Idahoans"; information about Idaho's journey through this process, studies the state has commissioned, the ongoing work of the Healthcare Alternatives For Citizens Below 100 Percent Of Poverty Level committee, the Idaho Statesman's own news coverage and some of the guest opinions that have appeared this calendar year.

Hey guys!! I know I promised a post yesterday but I was super busy… I'm super sorry! But today we're going to do something a bit different. Some crazy awesome jokes…. Because my friends:are bored. XD
So I kind of found them because if there's one thing I can't do it's make jokes….. I can TELL jokes, but I CAN NOT make them…..
1) Teacher: "What is the chemical formula for water?"
Student: "HIJKLMNO."
Teacher: "What are you talking about?"
Student: "Yesterday you said it's H to O!"
A child asked his father, "How were people born?" So his father said, "Adam and Eve made babies, then their babies became adults and made babies, and so on." The child then went to his mother, asked her the same question and she told him, "We were monkeys then we evolved to become like we are now." The child ran back to his father and said, "You lied to me!" His father replied, "No, your mom was talking about her side of the family."
Yo momma is so fat, I took a picture of her last Christmas and it's still printing.
(B/N: I don't mean to offend anyone with this joke… My "homie" Matthew told me this at camp XD )
Yo momma is so fat when she got on the scale it said, "I need your weight not your phone number."
(B/N: Again, this is merely for pure laughter…)
5) This is the last one!
Yo mamma is so ugly when she tried to join an ugly contest they said, "Sorry, no professionals."
Haha….. Did you like them?? Which one was your favorite?
Anyway, I need to go.
