17 Methods That Helped Young People Make a Fortune – Do you ever feel like there's too much "month" left at the end of your paycheck? Where does it all go anyway? Well, if your money is having a hard time finding its way into your savings account,then looks like you should…
1. Tell your money where to go
It's going somewhere, so you might as well decide where that is. Whether you use a spreadsheet like Excel or jot it down by hand, budgeting is essential. Make a list of all of your expenses in one column and how much you earn in another. Sort your expenses into categories (rent/utilities, groceries/personal expenses, and fun extra stuff), and make cuts where you can. Most banks these days have an app with budgeting tips and categorized records of your purchases– that'll help too!
2. Track your money daily
It's great if you make a monthly budget – it's not great if you only look at it once a month. Set aside a specific time each day to check your transactions and see if you're on track. It doesn't have to be an inconveniently long time – 60 seconds is enough. You can call it your Midday Money Minute!
3. Eat at home
The average American spends $230 a month just on eating out! Fast food may seem cheap, but cooking at home is way more wallet-friendly. The internet is full of recipes for all kinds of tastes and diets: gluten-free, vegan, keto– the list goes on and on! Plan your meals and make grocery lists based on needed ingredients. When you go grocery shopping, stick to your list, and don't make unnecessary purchases. Packing a lunch with the leftovers of last night's dinner will also encourage you to kindly decline when your co-workers ask, "Wanna get take-out?"
4. Stay up with sales
Whether it's groceries or clothing, the Sunday paper advertises when there's a good sale going on. Purchase more expensive foods like meat at a discounted price, and plan your menu around that. Buy in bulk when you can. Don't eat meat? Fruit and veggies go on sale at different times of the year too! And don't be shy about cutting coupons if you're looking to save – that's what they're for anyway!
5. Go thrifting
If your brain is already on Sales Mode, then kick the savings up by hitting some thrift stores at the right time. Look for sales at popular thrift shops on their site or posted up in their stores. Holidays are also ideal for discounts. If you're not ready to buy second-hand, off-price department stores like Marshall's sell new name-brand clothing with huge mark-downs. I'd recommend getting items that last forever, such as denim jeans, jackets, and shorts!
6. …But always shop alone
I know, sounds boring! But think of it this way: have you ever gone shopping with a friend, and they say, "Oh,that looks great on you!You should get it. "Although, you really aren't a huge fan of how those jeans make your tush look, and you probably would've talked yourself out of getting them had you been alone. But you feel good about the compliment, so in the cart they go!
7. Spend your cash and keep the change
Instead of going to the store with your debit card in hand, try withdrawing cash in the exact amount you budgeted to spend. This will keep you in check if you're tempted to make an impulse purchase. If you don't have the cash on hand for certain products, they don't go home with you. Likewise, if you get change back, start putting it in a jar. Setting aside loose change quickly adds up. When the jar is full, you can decide what to do with it – either save or spend it on a special project!
8. Cut the cable
The average person spends about $85 a month on cable. Satellite owners spend a bit more, topping off at $100 per month. This could be part of the reason why streaming services like Netflix have skyrocketed. Now similar sites like the 6-bucks-a-month Hulu are adding competition and driving price seven lower!Other perks include being able to watch episodes from your favorite shows on demand. If you're in college, many of these sites even have special discounts for you!
9. Never buy new
You should go second-hand with your car too. A brand-new vehicle loses 10% of its value during the first month of ownership, beginning immediately after you drive it off the lot. On average, it'll continue to decrease between 15-20% annually. Let's say you purchase a new car for $30,000. After the first month, its value is down to $27,000. After the first year, it's sitting at $24,000. In short, most people end up owing more than what the vehicle is actually worth. Buying a used car is a nice way to prevent that, even when it's on the newer end of used!
10. Be smart with credit cards
If you have to use a credit card, get one that pays you. Look for a card that offers cash back rewards. For example, some offer the following deal: for every $100 you spend, you get $1 back. Work towards paying off the balance each month and maintain that 1% back on every purchase. As long as you pay off what you spend every month, you won't accumulate any interest what so ever. Instead of losing money, you actually get money…as long as you're responsible!
11. Have an emergency savings fund
With all the extra money you'll soon be saving, you can put the surplus towards an emergency savings fund. The minimum amount for this account should be $1,000. This works as a safety net when unplanned things happen. Instead of swiftly swiping a credit card when your car breaks down and accumulating more debt, dip into your emergency savings fund. That's what it's there for. When the crisis is behind you, rinse and repeat, working your way back up to that $1,000 base amount.
12. Pay off debt
According to financial guru Dave Ramsey, once you have an emergency savings fund, you can begin paying off debt. The "debt snowball" refers to paying off your smallest debt first. For example, if you have a student loan in the amount of $6,000 and a remaining credit card balance of $12,000, start by knocking out the student loan debt. Once that's done (say you were contributing $300 a month towards paying it off), you can roll that 300 towards your remaining credit balance. This helps you see progress faster, which then motivates you even more!
13. Give monthly towards your holiday savings
Don't let December and all the holiday parties sneak up on you! Decide how much you want to spend per person at the beginning of the year. Let's say there are 4 people in your family, and you'd like to get them each a gift valued at $50 or less. In order to have $200 to spend, you only need to save about $16 a month. You can do that! If your list is longer or you want to start shopping sooner, adjust accordingly. You can do the same with summer vacations.
14. Set specific savings goals
Going off those last two tips, did you notice I used specific examples with hard numbers? That's because you'll never save money if your goal is to simply "save money". You need an exact step-by-step plan to work towards. You have X amount of student debt, you want to pay it off by Y time, so you'll set aside Z dollars to achieve that goal. There's no room left for uncertainty or excuses, only action!
15. Accept hand-me-downs
There's no greater bargain than receiving a whole new wardrobe for free, without having to step foot in a retail store! If certain hand-me-downs don't work for you, simply pass them along. Those formerly white t-shirts? Yeah, you don't have to keep those, but thanks for offering!
16. Live with your parents
Before you gasp, hear me out. You'd be in good company, as roughly 23% of young adults currently live at home with their parents. Many of them are moving back in after college. Remember the whole thing about paying off debt? Living with your folks can also help you save money for the future, whatever your plans might be. Owning your own home, traveling and seeing the world, it's up to you!
17. Take advantage of your local library
And other free services! A receipt from the Wichita Public Library recently went viral, showing a total savings of $7,078. 76 for a family of 6 that visited the library weekly. The library kept track from the moment they started checking out books. Many other libraries use the same system, thus encouraging more people to visit. Museums and zoos typically have community days or nights, when their entrances are FREE. Check their social media pages for those days and details. Pretty cool huh?

Feelin' A Little Canadian
There is nothing as awful as having to teach in a sweltering hot classroom. Two horrible humid days with schedule craziness and 40 kids in a classroom! Who ever's idea it was of having kids go back to school before Labor Day needs to be shot! However, today was very gracious and brought us some cooler air. It reminded me that cool air of the Canadian summer. I finally got some pics from our trip way back when. So I thought I'd reminisce a bit today. Once one goes to cafeteria duty, you feel like you never left. So I really wanted to go back and look at these pictures of happy days.

The Good Old Days
Tomorrow is the big day. The beginning of another school year. I am excited to see what new students I will have to deal with and mold. Last week was a week of meetings and schedule hell. Tomorrow will also be the same schedule hell. But I am optimistic and know that all will smooth itself out. This weekend was great! Started it out by going to see Little Miss Sunshine! An absolute must see. The characters are exactly what you want them to be. Strange and quirky and very realistic in a strange sort of way. Steve Carell is probably what I'd imagine him to be in true life. Sometimes his character in the Office is so obnoxious I like seeing him in movies like this one. I must get out and see and then own when it comes out on DVD.
The weekend continued with massive house cleaning and a party in Roland Park. With people I don't know. Friends of a friend sort of party. Ran into someone I met not too long ago. In conversation we realized we have been to the same places and know a lot of the same people. Its more reunions with people from the Baltimore Punk Rock era of the 80's. Oh yeah..a big treat, I also ran into another person, Patty from Marble Bar days at the freshman orientation at Parkville. Looks like I will be teaching her son. I loved the fact that her Husband Pierre remembered me as the girl who drove the Yugo! Yes that was me! I had it for about 10 months before someone hit me in the rear and totaled the car.
I wanted to post pics of my paintings in their finished state but my battery died. Maybe tomorrow. So I decided to post pictures from the very early 80's. That's Missy and I in the stairwell at the Marble Bar. My Mohawk was growing out..How Punk Rock? . Milly and I are on the Bridge on Maryland Avenue right around the corner from the Club Chuck. And then that's Billy Stevenson jumping his skateboard off of my 1971 Dodge Dart! That's on Charles Street on the Bridge by Penn Station. You used to be able to park on it back then. Anyway, these are more than 20 years old. Enjoy

Baltimore SUCKS..but I guess it's OK if you're a painter
So what does one do when cooped up in the studio for days on end? One gets tired of listening to the same old songs programmed into their itunes. Plus sometimes, you really get lonely and you need to hear some human voice periodically. I am very thankful that I only have my computer in my studio. Forces me not to listen to local radio. Makes me search out into the world to find that perfect radio station. And I think I have come close to finding such a station. A station that has convinced me that Baltimore surely SUCKS when it comes to our cultural side. If we have one, its hiding in some old warehouse space in which one must be In the know, in order to know what's going on. We use to collect flyers back in the 80's. That was how we knew which punk rock band was playing, and in what bad part of town we would have to venture out to see. Or you simply hung out on the corner of Franklin and Eutaw to see who was playing at the Marble, the galaxy ballroom, or Jules's loft. Ahh, those were the days. Anyway, you never heard about them on any radio station. Maybe WCVT, Towson's radio station back then that truly rocked! Today's station, wtmd, seems to play the same people, the same songs all the time....keeping it conservative with the alternative music of today. John Hopkins's station in the early 80's, played great music late at night, around 10, but you had to be in Charles Village to hear it. They would also play local bands as well as artistic eclectic punk rock music. WHFS was out of Bethesda then. They were probably the best. I believe they were commercial free. They use to read off lots of useful lists. Like who was playing where…got lots of the load down on the DC scene from these guys. My favorite was the list of who was going west and needed a ride, or was willing to give a ride. They also read off employment opportunities.
Anyway, why all this talk about when Baltimore had decent radio stations? I found this station off of itunes. 90.3, out of Seattle. It is commercial free. A public radio station out of the University of Washington. I have become a big fan of Seattle. We get to travel there every summer to visit my in-laws. We never really get to spend enough time there. But I digress. Really you have to listen to this station. Tonight if I was in Seattle, I would have many choices as to what to do and who to go see. Check out this list of events:
Dead, Goly Grim, Penetration Camp, Slicing Grandpa (9pm)
Seahorse, Princess Johnny & the Sex-Changes, The Sacred Dice
The Solomon Douglas Swingtet, the Ham Carson Quartet (9:30 pm, all ages)
Demo-Listen Derby: Two Loons for Tea, Monkey Grunt, Sweetjuice
Floater (9pm)
this is small sampling of the list.
I love the names of the bands. And get this, if you're under 21, most clubs are smart and have all ages shows. I also found out that I could go listen to Eric Fishel speak, one of my favorite Artist. Last week I could of seen Etta James for free at the Zoo!
So check out this station. They are currently playing old vinyl records of a local hard-core band from 1981. You can find them on the web at www.kexp.org. Just remember they are 3 hours behind!
But I guess if I shouldn't be distracted and only work on my paintings. I guess it's a good thing I live in Baltimore.

THis is my last day of summer
Today was my last weekday of summer vacation. I spent it with my best bud from college and one of my teaching colleagues: Mildred and James, along with their two tag-a-longers: Phoebe and Ivan. Off to D.C. to go look at Art! We first descended on the Phillips collections. I had only been there once when I was in undergrad. I completely forgot how incredible that collection is. They have this amazing collection of Bonnards, Diebenkorns, Gustons, and the Rothko room. I am amazed by how color, and its strengths, dimensions and layers can be so effective. This collection is hanged in such a way that all paintings are beautifully complimented. It was well worth the $12 to get in. I will not wait another 20 years before I go back. In fact I must take my students.
After traveling to Dupont Circle, we jumped back onto the metro to the Smithsonian for $12 salads at the National Gallery Café and quick run through the Rousseau exhibit that was good for a silly laugh. How was it that this untrained artist got famous?
Then to the show that motivated me to spend my last day of vacation in DC: Anselm Kiefer 's Heaven and Earth exhibit at the Hirshhorn. Pictures in books do not do this man's work justice. You have to experience them. In their grand scale and multiple layers. One images this 60 some old man in his German factory studio space. As I stumble over piles of pictures and books in my studio to reach my paints, I am so jealous of those you have massive spaces to work in. It is a dream of mine. Maybe when I am 60 some. Anyway, the show ends September 10 so go down there NOW and see it.

Just checking in
Life sure does get busy when you're watching the days. I got the depressing "back to school" letter on Friday. Not really ready to go back. This summer was incredible with lots of clean air, mountains and just plain old space! Living in Baltimore makes one forget about what space looks like, or actually feels like. Utah is 85% unused land. You can see so far. And Canada...so clean! Patrick has a great run down on our trip. His computer however has taken ill and is away for a bit. But keep posted, it will be up soon. He also has all of our good pics.
So in the meantime I thought I would post some pictures of my family vacation from 1976 or '75. Not sure...but it was this great trip in which we took friends of the family's pop-up camper and car and took a month to see the WEST. We started with the Badlands, Mount Rushmore, went all though Colorado, Yellowstone, the Grand Teton and Jacksonhole, WY, then down to the Grand Canyon, Salt Lake City and then through the Dessert to San Francisco. We flew home and then our friends flew to San Fran and brought the camper home. I can only imagine what that trip would cost today! So I got to re-visit the outside of the Mormon visitor center in Salt Lake this year on the way to the airport.
And now I am down to one week left before its back to full time work. The paintings are going well. To interpret Photoshop rendering in paint is a new challenge for me. They are changing and evolving. The invites have been sent out. Still needing some addresses. So if you didn't get one give me a holler.

I'm back and busy!
We arrived home yesterday evening...a bit later than expected thanks to American West. Will write later about that one....or check out Patrick's story on our Whistler on his traction page. Had an excellent time! I found new heights on my bicycle. So glad I brought her along. We found air together! I've discovered some new techniques in jumping over those doubles! I'll post pics later. Came home to hot hot weather and a studio yelling my name! As well as the cats. Have gone right to work. The show is coming up. I'll be sending invites out soon. Email me if you want a hard copy of it. firstname.lastname@example.com
Ok...back to work.

After a two-year hiatus, the Grossman School of Business' premier student-run event, the Family Enterprise Case Competition, returned to the global stage on January 9 to 12. Students, coaches and judges from nearly 30 different countries descended upon a snowy Burlington to compete in FECC 2019.
In its sixth edition, this year's competition was long awaited after construction/renovation of Ifshin and Kalkin halls postponed last year's competition. FECC 2019 was Grossman's largest yet, with 25 undergraduate and graduate teams, 52 judges and 49 Grossman students all working through real-world cases involving family businesses. After four days of presentations and competition, Carleton University's Sprott School of Business from Canada and University of Adelaide from Australia took home first place for the undergraduate and graduate leagues, respectively.
FECC is unique in that it is the only case competition in the world that focuses on issues important to family businesses. "Surprisingly, family businesses form the large majority of business enterprises, yet they tend to be overlooked by most institutions, governments and even educators," says Pramodita Sharma, a professor and Daniel Clarke Sanders Chair in Entrepreneurship and Family Business at the Grossman School of Business.
In fact, nearly 70 percent of U.S.-based businesses are family businesses. Despite the "mom-and-pop shop" misperception of family businesses, some of the world's leading enterprises, including Nike, Wal-Mart, Samsung, Oracle, Volkswagen and Facebook, are family operated.
FECC senior lead coordinators Abby Collins '19 and Doug Hirschhorn '19 say that bringing the world's top schools in family business together under one roof illuminates the nuances of how these businesses operate across the globe. "This competition and this event really facilitate a unique understanding of how different cultures view different scenarios in family business," says Hirschhorn.
Collins points out that succession lines, for example, vary among cultures and countries. "In the United States, the person who takes over a family business might just be whoever is most important to the company or whoever is most devoted. Whereas in China, it's just the firstborn son. But what happens when the firstborn son doesn't want to take over?" she explains. These are the kinds of real-world issues that FECC explores in its cases.
Throughout the four days of FECC 2019, student teams were given multiple cases, prepared by judges in advance, and tasked with formulating their best recommendations for how a company or client might proceed. The teams then presented their ideas in a succinct and professional manner to panels of judges, who evaluated them on their analysis of the case, feasibility in their recommendation, creativity, time management and more.
This year's judges spanned 12 different countries and dozens of industries, from politics to tech. Alumna Emily Bates '15, an FECC senior lead coordinator during her time at the University of Vermont, returned to the competition in a new capacity this year as a judge. Now a project manager at Google, she says planning an event as large as FECC prepared her for her current professional role.
"FECC also gave me the ability to network with other students, coaches and judges from all around the world—folks that I still stay in contact with today," she adds.
John Young, coach of Wilfrid Laurier University's Lazaridis School of Business team from Canada, echoes Bates' sentiment on the global community surrounding FECC. Young has attended each FECC since its inaugural competition in 2013, and likens the event to a homecoming in which he gets to work with the best the world has to offer in family business.
"It's a phenomenal case competition, it's the best organized one. I feel that—right from the start—they wanted it to be a classy product, and I believe they did that, right from the very first year," says Young.

The moronic gunite company did not put up a barrier when they shot the neighbors pool that includes a hot tub sitting about 6' off the ground. My entire back patio and pool are covered in small rocks (smaller than a childs pinky in size). There are thousands of rocks in my pool. Is it okay to use the vacuum and then clean out the pool basket and filter? What's the best and easiest way. I'll be emailing the gunite company and pool company to complain.

Now that you're trying to build your business into a brand, here are a few cogent points worth considering.
Although it's true that you cannot control what others say about you or your business on social media channels, you can however influence public perception by creating your own story and identity by owning a business website. A company blog helps business owners get their message, mission and personality in front of their target audience for much longer than ads, and faster than many brochures. There's also the option of embedding Social media icons linking to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other networking platforms which make sharing your content easier for your visitors who like what they see. However, these social media icons can sometimes experience down times which may last for about 24 hours or more just like what happened on July 3rd 2019, when a lot of people experienced challenges with viewing, uploading, and communicating via these platforms. At such moments, having a business website or e-commerce store could be a life-saver as this means that you can sell products all the time.This means that you will have a dramatic boost in sales, especially when you factor in the potency of a website in reaching additional customers who are not restricted by geography, time and season. Combining your website with marketing tools, like email marketing, also helps you reach new customers and generate repeat business.
So the important question is, do you have any fears regarding owning a business website? We're here to help alleviate all such fears – You can send us a message via www.revocube.com.
Need clarifications? Got ideas, service or product you would like to creatively showcase? Let's build something worthwhile for you today.

TV Ratings: 'Modern Family' Hits Finale Low, 'Empire' Ends Season With Uptick
Modern Family closed out its next-to-last season with its lowest-rated finale to date Wednesday night.
The ABC comedy, which is headed into its final season in 2019-20, tied last week's series low in adults 18-49 with a 1.0 rating. The finales of The Goldbergs (1.1) and Schooled (0.9) were each up a bit week to week — and had their most watched episodes since mid-March and late January, respectively. Single Parents ended its first season with a 0.7, even with a week ago. Whiskey Cavalier slipped a little to 0.4.
Fox's Empire (1.2) and Star (1.0) also ended their seasons Wednesday. Both shows improved a little on their week-ago ratings en route to giving the network the lead for the night in the 18-49 demographic.
Survivor led the night in adults 18-49 with a 1.4 for CBS, on par with last week. The Amazing Race (0.8) and SEAL Team (0.6) declined by a tenth of a point each in the demo, though The Amazing Race was steady in total viewers at 4.5 million.
NBC had the two most watched shows of the night in Chicago Med (7.75 million viewers) and Chicago Fire (7.71 million). Chicago P.D. (6.34 million) ranked fourth behind Survivor's 7.23 million. Fire (1.0) and P.D. (0.9) were down slightly in adults 18-49, while Med was even at 1.0.
Riverdale and Jane the Virgin both drew 0.3s on The CW.
Fox's 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demo led the broadcast networks. CBS and NBC tied for second at 1.0. ABC averaged 0.8, Telemundo 0.5, Univision 0.4 and The CW 0.3.

INDIANAPOLIS — The uncertainty for unbeaten Ohio State going into the Big Ten championship game wasn't about whether the Buckeyes needed to beat Wisconsin to make the College Football Playoff. It was about what they could showcase for the Playoff's committee as they made a final push for the top seed.
The Buckeyes, confident and talent-laden with their agile quarterback, Justin Fields, the fleet-footed running back J.K. Dobbins and a host of other playmaking options, appeared poised to deliver a rout similar to the one they dropped on the Badgers earlier this season.
Yet when Ohio State was forced to rally from two touchdowns down to earn a 34-21 win, a new question emerged. Even at 13-0, just how equipped is this team to take on faster, more talented competition — beginning with the reigning national champion, Clemson?
On Sunday, a 13-member committee determined that Louisiana State, not the previously top-ranked Buckeyes, should enter the national semifinals as the top seed. That means Ohio State gets a matchup against Clemson and its talented quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, rather than a semifinal against No. 4 Oklahoma, the Big 12 winner, which is the only team in the Playoff with a loss.
Ohio State is the first Big Ten team to be a part of the Playoff since the 2016 season.
Early Sunday morning, once the Buckeyes had been showered with colorful confetti at Lucas Oil Stadium, Ohio State's first-year coach, Ryan Day, declared that if there was a team in the country better than his, he would like to see it. But after the Buckeyes — led by Fields, who was declared the game's most valuable player — put up 27 points in the second-half comeback, Day also acknowledged that his team was in need of a breather.
"They need to enjoy it," Day said. He added: "This was a long road. These last three weeks were hard, tough, emotional. I think this team is blown out right now."
While the committee on Sunday did not concur with Day, his players insist they will be better for having played through difficulties against Wisconsin.
This season, Ohio State outscored its opponents by an average of 38.1 points and only once won by fewer than 12, 28-17 against Penn State on Nov. 23. But after easily beating their top rival, Michigan, by 29 in the regular-season finale, the Buckeyes had an uncharacteristically sloppy first half on Saturday night that put them in a 21-7 hole.
The locker room at halftime was free of yelling or finger-pointing. Instead, Day told his players that the next 30 minutes of play would determine what kind of team he had and what it was made of — not only against Wisconsin, but against stiffer competition on a grander stage.
"Coach Day, he just kept saying, 'Just keep swinging, just keep swinging,'" Ohio State defensive end Chase Young said. "We just kept swinging, kept swinging, kept swinging."
Clemson swung plenty in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game on Saturday night, beating Virginia, 62-17, and has plenty of reasons to keep doing so after being considered something of an also-ran for playing light competition on its way to a 13-0 record.
Late Saturday night, in the cramped quarters where Ohio State players took turns posing for photos with the Big Ten championship trophy, the common theme centered on their brotherhood and ability to fight together.
But its hopes for winning two more big matchups require Ohio State to play even more forcefully and eliminate the self-inflicted mistakes that put the Buckeyes in need of a comeback against Wisconsin.
Fields believes he and his teammates are up for the challenge.
"Just going through that, going through that little stumble or trial, I think that helped the team gain confidence and it definitely put us in a situation we had never been in before," Fields said.

Not just teaspoons, but also now washing-up brushes. I was amazed to read a tiny brochure attached to a new brush warning me not to apply too much pressure when in use in case it "caused injury"!ReplyDelete
Whether to myself or another was not made clear, but certainly the manufacturers now believe in assault by a deadly washing-up brush.
indeed this is most stupid.. and incoherent nanny rule i ever heard. this is exactly why people are murdering others with plastic cutlery.. - Frusttration!ReplyDelete
people are getting more retarded on daily basis and no one wants to take things responsibly, because why would we - many are reliant on "rules for a reason" concept, they fail to use their own brains.
I had a great rant at Asda in my email i just sent few minutes ago. If i get a reply, i shall post it.
PS thank you. i was seeking a place to let out my frustraction a current daily stupidities i see all around me. People getting paid to oversee "equalities", "feel the goodness", "promote rightiousness".. and all that, - clearly that doesnt help. doesnt anyone get the message?!
(/rant end)
- Moving Finger1:13 PM
I sent the original photo in. Asda can deny it all they like but they'd be lying if they did. I've seen the receipt & I still have the photo of it on my phone - it says 'teaspoons', 'ID required, 18', my wife has it in her possession. She is not a liar, neither am I.ReplyDelete
In the spirit of mischief my wife went to Tesco today & tried to purchase 2 latte teaspoons (the long handled & therefore potentially lethal variety) using the self service checkout.
Sure enough an assistant was required & she was asked for proof of ID. You need to be over 18.
What kind of insanity is this? I urge everyone to go to their local supermarket & buy spoons - use the self service checkout to force an assistant to make you provide ID. Then refuse to provide it.
If they insist on this moronic rule, walk out & leave the stuff where it is: it's not yours until you've paid for it.

Members Information sheet
Welcome to Howard Park Bowling Club.
Information for new/current members
Our Club was founded in 1969. We currently have around 80 members and our green is maintained by and rented from the local council.
We have noted the following information in order to help with your introduction as a new member of Howard Park Bowling Club.
If you should have any queries or suggestions on settling in not contained in the following notes please don't hesitate to contact your Club Secretary, Mike Murzell, or any other Committee Member who you will find listed in your Club Membership Booklet. This booklet also gives a list of all Club members, along with telephone numbers and e-mail addresses, as well as full details of the season's league fixtures, friendly games and various open and social days'.
A copy of the Club rules are on permanent display in the Clubhouse so we would ask that you familiarise yourself with them please.
Entry to the Green and Clubhouse is available to all members at the under noted times but as necessary security arrangements are required for entry; a demonstration will be given when requested. Prior to this we would suggest you arrange your visits to the Club when other members are in attendance.
The Green keepers normally work on the green during weekday mornings and members are free to use the green from 1.00 pm.week days and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. A" rinks book" is available to members in order that rinks for competitions can be booked therein. Practice sessions i.e. "roll ups" can be played on vacant rinks.
Dress Code
Bowling Shoes with flat soles must be worn at all times on the green
In Club matches two styles of dress are required on the green and this is determined by the type of competition being played. If the team selection sheet states dress as GREYS (usually for league matches) then the requirement is: -
Grey trousers for men and grey trousers or skirts for ladies, to be worn with a Club shirt, blouse, jumper or jacket. Alternatively shirts, blouses, jumpers and jackets in plain white are acceptable.
If the team selection sheet states dress as WHITES (usually for friendly matches but also for some County & North Hants competitions) then the requirement is:-
White tops worn with white trousers or skirts.
For "Roll up Periods" on Monday/Tuesday evenings and Friday afternoons a more relaxed dress code is acceptable but under no circumstances are jeans or tops without a collar or sleeves allowed on the green and socks must be worn when shorts are the preferred choice..
When representing the Club some members prefer to dress more formally, men wearing a Club tie, white shirt and blazer, ladies a white blouse and blazer. Club ties & blazer badges can be purchased at the Club. Contact Tony Kite if you are interested.
Instruction & Coaching
Instruction and coaching is available within the club, from our qualified coaching staff. Our established members will also be pleased to offer their help to new bowlers. Just make contact with any member of the committee for more information.
You will see from your Club Fixture List that the Club has a busy diary that includes many Friendly Matches against other Clubs. Most of our Friendlies are played at weekends; they consist of mixed games, either rinks (teams of 4 players using 2 woods each) or triples (teams of 3 players using 3 woods each)
The dress, time, venue and format will be indicated in your fixture list and teams will be made up of a mixture of both experienced and new bowlers so do volunteer for these games as soon as you feel confident enough.
Lists requesting players will be displayed on the notice board and the Match Secretary will be responsible for selecting the teams. When selected you should tick your name as soon as possible, or if you cannot play inform the Match Secretary ASAP.If selected as a reserve you are expected to turn up as you may be needed.
Tea is an integral part of a friendly game so for home games refreshments will be supplied by the Club for both members and guests. A charge of £3.00 to each playing member will be made to cover this cost.
It is also the usual practice to offer your opponent a drink from the bar after the game and as a raffle is usually held so please make sure you have some money in your pocket to cover these costs.
Help is needed before a game and afterwards to set up the rinks and help clear away. A rota will operate for laying tables and making tea. Away games entail travelling to other Clubs and it is usual practice to share transport and transport costs wherever possible.
League Games
When you feel that you would like to play in league games let the Club Captain know. The Spring Meeting is the best time to ask about joining the desired leagues. Howard Park enters teams in the following Leagues:-
Monday evenings: - Men's triple team in the Basingstoke & District League.
Tuesday evenings: - A ladies league team consisting of two triples of ladies one home and one away.
Wednesday evening: - 3 teams of mixed gender in the Whitchurch League.
Thursday Afternoon: - 3 teams of mixed gender in the Stan Hardiman League.
Friday Evening: - 1 team of men's rinks in the BDBA League.
Both home and away matches a small charge of £2.50 is made. For home evening matches we provide a supper for the players, and for the Ladies League and the Stan Hardiman Leagues, tea & biscuits only are served for yourself and partner. This is dealt with by a member of the team and is organized by the Team Manager on a strict rota basis. Again the etiquette at the end of the game is the same as in the Friendlies, i.e. offering your opponent a drink.
Procedure for checking to see if you are playing is the same as in the Friendlies, i.e. check the notice boards, tick your name off as available or if you cannot play let your manager know immediately. Also, if you are included as a reserve please note you are expected to turn up.
Club Competitions are organized annually by the Competition Secretary and entry forms are given to all members with the membership forms. When entering a competition it is imperative that challenges are made promptly in accordance with the club rules so that games are played by the due dates.
Club finals dates are displayed in the membership booklet, so if for any reason you are not available on the Finals days don't enter the competitions.
External Competitions are organized by the: - Whitchurch Bowling Association—Basingstoke & Deane B A. -- North Hants Women's BA.—Bowls Hampshire -- as well as Bowls England,.
Watch the notice boards for entry forms.
Open Days & Social days - "Spoon Drives"
The Club holds Open Days and "Spoon Drives" during the playing season. On these days there are many ways that members can help in the smooth running of these events by assisting with catering or setting up the rinks.
Fund Raising
Raffles and Fun Days are some of the ways that the Club raises funds. Obviously it is most important that everyone helps to raise funds for the Club, principally in order to keep our membership fees low but also in order for us, as a Club, to be able to support our President's chosen charity as well.
Domestic Duties
It is a condition of membership that you undertake a share of the domestic duties in the Club, and you will be asked to choose between bar duties and clubhouse cleaning when you renew your membership every year. This is a minimum requirement and you will appreciate that as with any successful club the more you put into your club the more you will get out of it.
Etiquette on the green
Bowls is a very sociable game to play. It's very pace gives you the opportunity to enjoy other players company and allows friendships to be formed. That's providing a few simple rules of etiquette are observed:
Always introduce yourself to your opponent(s).
Stand well behind the mat when he/she is bowling.
Do not run and shout on the green after delivering your wood
Remember to keep still behind the head when the Skips are bowling.
Walk quickly and centrally up the green when changing ends so as not to disturb bowlers on adjacent rinks.
Congratulate and commiserate with fellow bowlers. Do not rejoice at others misfortunes.
Encourage new bowlers, build a good team spirit and be cheerful in adversity.
Social Members
Social membership is available for a minimal annual fee to family and friends, who are non-bowlers but wish to share the Club's facilities,
Hopefully these notes will help you to understand and appreciate what is expected of you as a member of Howard Park Bowls Club. At the outset, do not believe that you have joined only to play bowls. Every member assumes responsibility immediately he/she is admitted. You will find that the Officers of your Club generously give their time and energy so that you can enjoy and play your game. Your support is needed in all functions organized for the good of the Club. Do your part to enhance this Club's reputation, be proud of it and never do anything to let your Club down.
April 2018

NACTA had warned of possible terrorist attack in Lahore
LAHORE: National Counter Terrorism Authority (NACTA) had already warned the provincial authorities of possible terrorist attack in Lahore.
According to a notice sent to Home Secretary Punjab, Provincial Police Officer and DG Pakistan Rangers (Punjab) on February 7, The National Counterterrorism Authority (NACTA) had warned of a possible terrorist attack in Lahore. NACTA had directed that all vital installations, including important buildings, hospitals and schools, be kept under strict vigilance. Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said that maximum preparations were made after the threat alert was received. The spot where the blast took place is always under threat. Even if there was no alert, strict security measures are always taken in the area. Extreme vigilance and heightened security measures are suggested to avoid any untoward incident,"the notification added.
Today, a powerful bomb went off outside Punjab Assembly in Lahore, killing several people, including senior police officials, and leaving scores of others injured. The death toll is feared to go up as some of those injured are in critical condition.
DIG Traffic Police Captain Ahmed Mubeen and DIG Operations Zahid Ikram Gondal have been killed in the attack. Among the injured are several policemen, women and media persons. A sit-in was being staged by Punjab Medical Stores Association and Chemist and Druggist Association near Faisal Chowk, Mall Road when the blast occurred. The two police officials were negotiating with protestors to end the sit-in and open the road for traffic. Many vehicles parked near the blast site caught fire, triggering panic and chaos in the area. A DSNG of Aaj TV was badly damaged following the blast, injuring their cameraman and driver.

Looking back at these, the warrior feet are the only ones that could majorly affect DPS. Not sure that 100 additional power fits in with these other effects that are all more PvP/open world oriented. Although it wouldn't affect DPS, I wouldn't mind seeing an effect that increases the max mana pool, or some sort of mana regen, considering the eternal weapon effect is based around having high mana.
I do have a few questions also.. have any of these effects been changed since 2/24? Will we see added abilities like the eternal weapons got?
Here's a complete list I have (though the image isn't as pretty), it includes some of the weapons they showed off during that live stream.

Those eternal procs for cleric are just awful in comparison to other classes. I guess they were right all along. It really is better to reroll a new class.

Why don't they just delete the Cleric calling and get it over with?
Well a warrior wouldn't want 100 power. We need to drop to below 20 for the eternal weapon to drop which is neigh I possible as it is. That proc just makes no sense.
do all of these armor pieces drop for all classes?
eternal pictures? I saw one player with eternal helmet
he looked like this

I would love to hear an explanation on where some of these eternals would be practical or usefull in any way from any of the Devs. The procs on them Do Not Make Sense to me... its as if Trion just subcontracted out the work to create them to some other people that have never played the game.
The ones that stand out as being AMAZING and usefull are Rogue Chest -> 3 meter extra melee, Cleric Helmet -> Really nice absorb scaling off max health, Warrior boots -> Power + Max Hp. While the rest seem really stupid and useless... they feel like a stat stick basically, or just a slightly better stat armor. I don't see any of the other procs on them as being beneficial in any way to anyone in PVE... they would have use in PVP but that doesn't make sense either because we have PVP gear for that which is substantially better over any eternal piece... am I missing something here Trion?
Couldn't you have done better with these? Can I get an explanation where we would use the blinks or knockbacks and other junk on them when we have Tons of built in utility in almost every soul- and souls that don't really have that have no use for it anyway.
I hope someone listens to how people feel about these, because something so incredibly rare that once you get it... you are not even excited about because only thing usefull on them is 100 extra main stat over the raid armor you have on now.

I cba to find the quote, but I like how they say rift aint a pvp focus'd game and at the same time make armor effects like this.
Thank goodness they are super duper ultra rare so nobody has to worry about it!
Who came up with this nonsense? I seriously hope that the procs of the armor sets are also disabled in PvP. Otherwise increasing the melee range by 3 meters is EXTREMELY OP, bcos it is not affected by any PvP reductions at all. In that sense, the absorb shield is the worst ability of them all by far. And blinking to a target to increase their and my movement speed? In what possible scenario would I ever need that for, especially when it comes to PvE?
Please start making polls about stuff like this before investing time in creating abilities that no one wants or needs.

text: It's been over 10 years and yet all you do is you push the franchise. Heroes VI or VII never turned out to be so great as H5, H3 and even H4 ( saying even just because many people didn't like the changes [ that are now newest Heroes flooded with]). Maybe if releasing new titles doesn't work well try resurrecting the old ones? Im sure there are lots of people that would buy remaster/HD edition of H5 and H4 rather than new H7 or H8. I hope "give it a try" is not too much to ask in this case.

I Am Spartapuss by Robin Price
|I Am Spartapuss by Robin Price
|Category: Confident Readers
|Reviewer: Sue Fairhead
|Summary: Life in Ancient Rome... ruled not by humans but by cats.
|Buy? Maybe
|Borrow? Yes
|Pages: 192
|Date: March 2005
|Publisher: Mogzilla
This is a slightly strange book. It's history, disguised as the diary of a slave-cat in Ancient Rome, and full of groanworthy puns. As I read it, I found myself unsure, at times, whether it was really very clever, or just irritatingly silly. It somehow managed to be both. The blurb on the back describes it as a 'witty Roman romp', which is exactly what it is. It's Ancient Rome - approximately - in a universe where cats rather than humans are in charge. Indeed, humans don't seem to exist at all, although other animals and some birds feature in the book. There's plenty of romping, and it's certainly witty.
Spartapuss, who is a cat slave (though quite a superior one) narrates the book in diary form. He is in charge of the 'spatopia', a kind of Roman spa. He is treated reasonably well by the owner Clawdius, who's related to Emperor Tiberius. His worst problem is ensuring that there is no slanderous graffiti on the walls.
One day the emperor is due to make a visit, so everyone makes a massive effort to prepare a suitable banquet. At the last moment, Spartapuss learns that the emperor is away; instead, they will be entertaining his grandson Catligula, who is not popular at all. Disaster strikes when Catligula eats too much too fast; then Spartapuss is arrested on grounds of poisoning...
It's not a long book, but it took me a while to get into it. There's a cast list at the front, and I had to refer to it several times. Other than Spartapuss, I didn't find the characters particularly memorable. However, the feline puns - which come thick and fast in places - did make me smile. For instance, Spartapuss swears by the god Mewpiter, remembers the Emperor Augustpuss, and discusses potential pawtents of doom.
I thought that the idea of Ancient Rome being run by cats is ingenious, and it worked well on the whole. Banquets consist of the kinds of food cats like, and important cats recline on comfortable cushions. However, I was less certain about how weapons for gladiatorial games could be wielded by cats.
The book is intended for confident readers; the vocabulary is fairly complex, and some knowledge of Ancient Rome is needed to make any sense of it. The run-up to the gladiator games is quite suspenseful, and although there isn't too much gore, the implications of how fighters and wild beasts were treated are fairly horrific. Probably realistic, but not for the very young or over-sensitive. I imagine children of about eight to twelve would enjoy this book most; those studying the Romans in history might like reading it as extra background. It reminded me a little of the 'Horrible History' series. Children or young teens who liked those would probably find this fun too, particularly if they are cat-lovers.
Thanks to the publishers for sending it to The Bookbag.
For more light-hearted history, you might like The Comic Strip History of the World by Sally Kindberg and Tracey Turner. You might also enjoy You Wouldn't Want to Be a Slave in Ancient Greece! by Fiona MacDonald and David Antram, or A Roman Adventure (The Histronauts) by Frances Durkin and Grace Cooke. If you'd like some more feline silliness have a look at Cleocatra's Kushion (Spartapuss Tales) by Robin Price.

text: Email This Post HomeHumorTo the annoying kids at the gorilla exhibit that I love Amy Vansant April 14, 2012 Humor I love to visit the gorilla exhibit at the zoo. Unfortunately, my fascination for these magnificent creatures is also shared by children who crowd the coveted glass position. Yes, I'm an adult who can see over their heads (sometimes – the "special ingredient" in the school's creamed corn must be steroids), however it isn't the same. I also deserve the opportunity to stare into the eyes of a gorilla and see who blinks first. – Mel Dear Kids: What the hell? Don't you see me standing behind you, waiting impatiently for my turn? I understand that you like watching the gorillas, I do too, but I'm not here to ooh and ahh, I've got serious business. While you are looking, pointing, laughing, and annoying the crap out of the gorillas by pounding on the glass, I've got vengeance on my mind. That's right. I have a beef with one of them. The one they affectionately call King Kong. You see kids, King Kong and I go way back. I've been coming to the zoo to see him since he was a little baby and we became great friends. But all of that changed the last time I was here. The last time I came to visit him, I watched in confusion and alarm as he took a dump in his hand and then flung it at me. Lucky for me, the glass took the impact of his shit, but it doesn't change the fact that he tried to cover me in his feces. And you should have seen the look on his face when he did it. Pure defiance. I have no idea what I did to deserve such hatred, but I do know that there's only one thing left to do. Battle it out with a staring contest. I want to stare coldly into the eyes of King Kong and make sure that bastard blinks first. However, it's going to be a little difficult for me to win the staring contest when you kids won't get out of the way. I'm perfectly aware that I'm an adult and can see over you, but that's not the point. It's the principle of the matter. How do you expect me to get King Kong to take me seriously when it looks like I'm hiding behind a bunch of third graders? He'll just laugh at me and reload his hand with another present. So please kids, I beg you, get out of the way. Move aside and let me press my face up to the glass for once. If you refuse and continue to insist on obstructing the view to my staring contest, I'm going to take a page out of King Kong's book and start flinging my poo. Consider yourselves warned.

Introducing CSS variables - Making your CSS dynamic
CSS variables just landed in Firefox 29 (Nightly) a few days back. This exciting new addition to the CSS specifications is all set to change the perception of CSS as a static language for defining style sheets. The formal W3C specification driving this feature is called CSS Custom Properties, aka, CSS variables, and is currently in the stage of "Working Draft". Currently, there is no known support for this in browsers apart from the latest builds of Firefox. Let us quickly check what this is all about.
Christian Heilmann posted a screencast recently highlighting the interesting aspects of CSS variables. He quickly shows how we can utilize variables to store data and reuse those variables in our CSS.
Declaring and using a variable
Declaring variables is as easy as prefixing them with a
var- keyword. Say, you want to store the hex code of a background colour in a variable, you would do:
body {
background-color: #333;
var-containerBg: #ccc;
Then, to use that variable later on in the CSS, you would call the
var() function, and pass the name of the variable without the
var- prefix as the argument:
.container {
background-color: var(containerBg);
This will produce:
.container {
background-color: #ccc;
Cascading inheritance
The inheritance of CSS variables is cascading as well. That is, you can override the value of a parent variable in its children. For example:
body {
var-bgColor: #333;
var-fontSize: 14px;
.container {
background-color: var(bgColor);
var-fontSize: 16px;
.container p {
font-size: var(fontSize);
p {
font-size: var(fontSize);
In the above code, the value of
var-fontSize is set once in
body but is overriden by
.container. So, all children of
.container will inherit the overriden value, but the selectors which are not children of
.container will retain the original value defined by
body. So the output will be:
body {
var-fontSize: 14px;
.container {
var-fontSize: 16px;
.container p {
font-size: 16px;
p {
font-size: 14px;
Know more
This is just the basics of CSS variables. You can do lot more with them, like performing calculations using the
calc() function. To know more, read the Using CSS variables page on Mozilla Developer Network, or the post on CSS Variables in Firefox Nightly on the Mozilla Hacks blog.

Tom Cruise Dating 'MI6' Co-Star Vanessa Kirby?: He's 'Fallen' For Her
Looks like Tom Cruise is back in the game! After years of living the single life since his divorce from Katie Holmes, the A-list actor may have found love once again with his 'Mission Impossible' co-star Vanessa Kirby!
Tom Cruise, 54, has reportedly fallen in love with his Mission: Impossible 6 co-star Vanessa Kirby, 28, according to a March 22 report from InTouch Weekly.
This relationship may not just be Tom's first venture into the world of romance since splitting from wife Katie Holmes, 38, back in 2012, as the magazine reported that the A-lister may want to make Vanessa his fourth wife!
"He wants to make her the next Mrs Tom Cruise," an InTouch source said of how the Top Gun actor feels about his latest love interest. Seems like Tom may be looking to truly settle down for good after losing his 80-year-old mother, Mary Lee Pfeiffer, back in February.

The actor cast the gorgeous Vanessa after seeing her stunning performance in the Netflix series The Crown, in which she played Princess Margaret. "Tom flipped for her work," a source told InTouch. "He told the other MI producers that he had to have Vanessa for a crucial role in the franchise's sixth installment." Whoa, sounds like it was love at first sight — or at first viewing on screen!
The source said that once the pair were on set together they had "instant chemistry" and she landed the role almost immediately. "He's blown away by her endless charm and energy," the insider said.
The lovely Brit was born in Wilmbledon and started out in the entertainment industry by doing theater, before landing roles in films like Jupiter Ascending, which starred Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum.

We had lots of data, but there was nothing showing that a mix of specific personality types or skills or backgrounds made any difference.

How to Get your Business on Success Road
New dreams are formed every day. People take measured steps to let their ideas, thoughts, and skills see the light of day. Some people just think while others move one step ahead and start to do something to make that dream happen. Out of all the people that are practically working on their ideas, only a handful of them sees success. It is only after hit and trial that the others learn where they went wrong and what needs to be implemented in order to improve. This can be a good way to learn, but in the harsh realities of business, this is not a very practical approach. Neither does anyone have that many resources nor the time to spare or waste on doing something again and again just to perfect it? Specific corrective and preventive actions must be kept in mind in order to save the limited assets at hand.
1- Find your strengths
It is easier to copy the ideas of others, but it is the execution phase that will be the ultimate downfall if you have not planned the whole process according to your strengths and weaknesses. Realize what is possible for you to do and then give it a go. This will provide you with an opportunity to be unique in the market and have substantial grounds while you are at it.
2- Gather a professional team
Surrounding yourself with the people who believe in you and your ideas is utterly essential. You cannot have a team that you do not have faith in or vice versa. It will exhaust you and divert your attention from the real goal. The professional team does not necessarily have to include experts; it can also sum up people who are loyal, hardworking, and trustworthy.
3- Incorporate good services
You are not going to be alone in your team. So as much as it is vital to keep your clients happy, it is also vital to pay corrosive attention to the people who are working for you. The first target of any entrepreneur is to manage the finances well. Payroll services in UK are readily available for businesses that are starting in the United Kingdom.
4- Broaden your horizon
Meet and associate with people who are understanding of the field you are working in. This will give you an insight into the real market dilemmas while helping you in reaching out to the actual customers. Broaden the horizon of your acquaintances and alliances; this will be a good marketing strategy as well.
5- Keep an open mind
Learn from the failures of the others and listen to what your advisors have to say. Understand where the things are going south and try to handle the situations professionally. Utilize your budget sensibly and use cheap accountant services that are also good at what they do. This will give you a double benefit.
Make sure that you are not limited to only following the listed suggestions here. Adapt and improvise according to the situation. This is the sign of a true leader and your business needs you to be your best form of it. This is how you, your team and your brand will prosper.

"All you need to do is divide in teams and craft paper boats to begin with", said Prof. Dilip Chajjed to kickstart the 8 sessions' module on Supply Chain Management at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Indore. Prof. Chajjed teaches in University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and is the Executive Director of MS Programs at Department of Business Administration at UIUC. His one-week visit to Jaipuria, Indore had the PGDM students of Supply Chain Management undergo an interesting and intense learning experience.
The first day of the module saw Prof. Chajjed make students understand distribution processes and its challenges through paper boats and a case study on a German retailing division called Aldi. Students got in-depth understanding of value chain, product selection, product pricing and promotion, product quality, store operations, supply chain operations, purchasing, the back-office operations, international operations and competitors of Aldi.
The second day witnessed a simulation competition among the students wherein they had to play a Beer game. In a team of four, students were designated as producers, distributors, wholesalers and retailers so as to help them understand how intermediaries work for their own benefit and thus resulting in inefficient supply chain operations. It was followed by yet another exercise- a cupcake game. Students learnt the concept of overstocking and under stocking by the end of the session. In the words of Suyash Bhalerao, PGDM Class of 2019- "supply chain as a domain is intellectually stimulating however, the module made it even better for each one of us."
Third day of the module was the day of discussing Zara from Harvard Business Review. "Empty racks at Zara don't drive customers to other stores. Being out of stock in one item helps sell another," remarks Prof. Chajjed while explaining the concept of bullwhip effect through which distribution channel forecasts supply channel inefficiencies to increase the response. The day ended with a discussion on 'News Vendor Model', which emphasized on deciding optimal order size and its tradeoffs.
The final day had two case studies- 'Logistics of Mass Gathering: Kumbh Mela – Ujjain, India – 2016' and 'Halloran Metals,' in store for students. While 'Logistics of Mass Gathering: Kumbh Mela – Ujjain, India – 2016', helped students understand the dynamics behind managing the fair efficiently it also helped them analyse it from projecting the percentage flow of pilgrims by an hour of the day, temporary facilities and transportation. They grasped the dimensions of demand and planning– the six entry points and temporal – a time of the day as concepts. Capacity planning, adaptive rerouting and moving queue models were also discussed. Later in the session, flexibility planning and case of 'Halloran Metals' was discussed. How Halloran Metals has been able to make profits in the steel industry of US was discussed with regards to various aspects like order winners, competition, marketing strategy, organizational structure and costs.
The 8 classes with Prof. Dilip Chajjed had Jaiuria Institute of management, indore's students crack various mysteries behind logistics management and learnt from the popular turns and events of the 21st century.
