India Gate Thar Desert Omkareshwar Shopping in Delhi Kanyakumari
The name India evokes a number of feelings and emotions in the mind of tourist all over the world. India Tourism is indeed unique and implausible. More than what picture books and geography textbooks can articulate. India is different and certainly a boiling point of cultures traditions, languages, caste, and creed. India is not just a country but and amalgation of many entities into this one great nation. This singular distinction cannot be credited by any country in the world. Each state is an entity distinctive and different. Keeping all things aside the states distinctiveness in blended together in the Fabric of this great nation. Many provinces nestled together to make one great nation is difficult and almost impossible to comprehend. Hence incredible is the right adjective that can be asserted in terms of India.
India tourism offers wandering and soulful traveler and experience of visiting many counties and ecosystem at one and the same point in time. From the majestic white capped peaks of Kashmir to the sun baked and golden flaked beaches of Kanyakumari to the white sanded beaches that glitter in the magnificent and the soulful moonlight of the in a silver shimmer that is as perfect as a spectacle as the eastern lights and finally the greenery and soulful serenity of the North east that is sanctified with nature and yet waits to be explored by visitors.
Numbers are minimalistic and seldom reveal the whole truth about this country. However one thing is for certain that visitors visiting the country and its 28 states have more than million of memories and replete occasions for a single traveler to remember. If the same estimate is done in terms of the all the number of visitors the books and experiences compiled would be enough to write countless number of pages both online and offline and still would be in sufficient and open for changes that is the wonder of India.
Each side of this country is a wonder in itself every kilometer travelled there is a difference in terms of the cultures, traditions. Be the mighty and the majestic mountains of Jammu Kashmir that is none other than paradise on other. The lush and verdant agricultural fields and the rivers. The various places of worship and devotion and deep and indelible religious fervor that flows in some such so that one is inclined to the part of reorientation. The western part the country is known is not as the commercial side of the country. However apart from being the perennial economic center the States of Maharashtra, Gujarat is adorned and with massive diversity. The south part of India is different also offers beautiful places to visit from the sun kissed beaches of Goa to the religious temples, diversities of ecosystems and climatic conditions that are found in the four states. Finally the unexplored and the unchartered territories of the east that is adorned by the seven sister that is known for mesmerizing beauty.
There are other factors like cuisine and heritage. For tourists to taste all the cuisine of the country would take almost two whole months and understanding the heritage and truly imbibing it a lifetime.
It is impossible not be impressed by India. No where on earth can one truly experience and embed the greatness. Every aspect of the aspect however small it may be and negligible which itself is a wonder. It is most difficult to articulate India in the most effective manner and all the information compiled may not be enough and may be open to suggestions.
We have put in an effort to offer the best and the most conclusive travelogue of this country.

World images and identities
How do we view the world around us? Artists excel at providing unexpected answers to this question. Our vision of the world is naturally formed by where and when we live, but it is also influenced by coincidence, an unexpected event and developments that sometimes continue for centuries. This means that the question 'What do we see exactly?' is perhaps even more interesting. Artists from the Rabo Art Collection reflect on these questions through their work.
Meschac Gaba, who was born and raised in Benin, has been working in the Netherlands since 1996. Through his work he takes an in-depth look at concepts including visual arts, economics and politics in both Europe and Africa. His work Peacemaker appeals for attention to the stratified world order in a light-hearted way.
Jasper de Beijer studies the significance of terms such as colonialism in an almost cartoon-style manner. Aernout Mik also makes films and installations on critical topics including the migration and border issues that face countries such as Mexico. But artists equally find diverse forms of identity closer to home. Carel Visser, for instance, uses a basic visual language to portray the family as the core element that serves as the basis for human development.
Ger van Elk reflects on this era in our region of the world and studies the phenomena of both religion and power through photography and painting. The history of art itself also influences the portrayal of, for example, the landscape by artists such as Hans Broek and JCJ Vanderheyden. The common thread that connects all of these angles, media and views is the amazement and attention with which both the major issues and the minor aspects of everyday life are explored.

However, the Kiwi failed to repay the faith shown in him, with three defeats and an embarrassing 16-16 draw with Fiji leaving Wales with just two wins in their last 13 Tests.
But McGeechan's belief in Gatland's ability – who was his assistant coach in the 2009 Lions tour to South Africa – has not wavered and he insists a stable backroom environment is key to success on the pitch.
"The teams that are most effective are the ones with the stable management and stable coach," McGeechan said.
"I think stability is important. I think it's too easy just to say a contract finishes so we'll move on.
"If you look at football, we're still becoming professional if we're honest, about how we structure things and what we do.
"I think that the teams that are most effective are the ones with the stable management and stable coach.
"So I think going forward with that management team and what the players want and the direction, I think it makes huge sense."

With more models in the market the cruiser got more attention in the 60′s. In this era mountain bikes and many other bikes came in to the market.

About Picking Out Snowboard Bindings
Snowboarding bindings are what keep your feet attached to your snowboard. There are different kinds of bindings you can buy. You should buy your snowboard boots before you buy your bindings. There are many different styles of bindings and boots that you can buy. You need to buy what you feel fits you best.
Flow-in bindings or strap on bindings offer the most flexibility. You need to use them with soft boots. This is a good combination for free-styler's and free riders. These are also more comfortable when you are off your snowboard. You need to make sure if you are going to use step in bindings you also use step in boots. You need to make sure the step ins for boots and bindings are the same. If you buy cheaper step-ins then you will have less for control. Hard boots with plate/lever bindings give the most solid and to write control you will have with your snowboard. Soft boots and strap bindings are the most used because they are the most comfortable when not on your snowboard more people still prefer step in bindings because it is easier to get on and off your board.
Before you buy bindings, you need to buy your boots. Your bindings should hold your boot snugly and be comfortable. There should also be no excessive movement from side to side, or front to back. Connect all the straps and see how the fit is. Once you have the right bindings and boots, snowboarding will be more enjoyable to you.
Don't Worry About Your Kids Participating in Martial Arts
The martial arts have gotten a bad rap, especially amongst parents. Whether it's judo, karate, or tae kwon do, many parents worry that if they enroll their child in martial arts lessons, that their kids will end up a bloodied mess at the end of each session. However, this is just plain untrue. Martial arts are less about fighting and more about developing respect, confidence, and improving one's personal mind and body health. Kids who are enrolled in the martial arts are no more likely to become injured than kids who are enrolled in soccer, pee wee football, or gymnastics. Here are some reasons why parents should not worry about their kids participating in martial arts.
All About Last Minute Cruises
Cruise vacations are in great demand and cruisers are increasing in number every year. The cruising industry is also growing big and every year new cruise ships are being launched by the different cruise liner companies. Being late is often rewarding when it comes to booking last minute cruise deals. Last minute bookings are the best way to get a good discount and you can save for lesser price, while you enjoy all the comforts and facilities on the ship. Sometimes un-planned vacations, busy schedules and uncertainty of the holiday plans prove to be beneficial if you go for last minute cruises. Moreover, last minute cruises come at a discounted price and you can sail for a less cost.
Though the cruise liner companies want all the reservations and bookings to be done in advance, and don't want their ship to sail with a few cabins and rooms un-reserved. This is the time when the cruise liners come up with discounted price packages for the last minute cruises. Last minute cruises are offered by all the cruise companies, provided there is an availability of rooms on their ship. Before booking last minute cruise, a quick internet surfing through the major cruise website will be helpful. It will give you an idea about the last minute cruise deals offered by the different cruise liners and it'll help you can choose the best deal. Even if you have access to all the entertainment programmes and the vast variety of food and drinks on-board, the only problem with last minute cruises is that you will have limited options of rooms to choose from. This might not be a big concern if you spend most of the time out of your cabin, enjoying all that the cruise has to offer.

In one of the most significant auctions of Gandhi memorabilia, Sotheby's London is going put thousands of letters , papers and photographs which shed light on the life of the Mahatma under the hammer on July 10.
The archive comprises five decades of correspondence, much of it previously unpublished, between Gandhi and Hermann Kallenbach, a German Jewish bodybuilder and architect who became Gandhi's closest friend after they met in Johannesburg in 1904. It was Kallenbach's plot of land that Gandhi turned into his ashram of satyagrahis, and at his suggestion, named it after Tolstoy. Their relationship has been the subject of much speculation ever since the release of Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and author Joseph Lelyveld's biography, Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi and His Struggle. Though Lelyveld denied that he had said Gandhi was homosexual or bisexual , many interpreted his references to their closeness as an indication of a more intimate relationship.

Sara P. sent in a video from The Economist that highlight women's economic opportunities worldwide. It is based on the results of an economic index ranking of 113 nations, focusing on issues such as workplace policies (for instance, access to paid maternity leave), education, access to the financial system, and the legal and social status of women in the economy (such as the right to work and social attitudes about women working for pay). The index also attempts to differentiate between official policy and actual practice to provide a better idea of the actual economic environment facing women in each country. The analysis is necessarily limited by the inclusion of only 113 countries (especially for Oceania, where only Australia and New Zealand were included), but it's a worthwhile watch for a general overview:

"Crank 2: High Voltage" comes to DVD and Blu-ray

(We do not collect these names or emails!)Fans of "Crank" starring the one-time French Connection model and 'tough guy' actor Jason Statham are eagerly awaiting the DVD release of sequel, "Crank 2: High Voltage," set to drop September 8.
Those who missed catching "Crank 2" in theaters can soon enjoy this action-packed film, described as "an eye-popping strobe of flesh and blood" and "visually stunning" by Entertainment Weekly.
The plot catches up with our hero Chev Chelios (Statham) three months after his fall from a helicopter in "Crank." Here, Chelios had to keep his adrenaline level high to avoid death after a malicious poisoning, but in "Crank 2" this hit man loses his heart - literally.
His organ is snatched away by a gang of Chinese mobsters, who replace it with an electrically-powered heart with an attacked battery pack that must be kept charged at all times - or else Chelios will perish. "Crank 2: High Voltage" follows the hit man's search for his heart, with a bit of romance and high-octane action to keep things interesting.
Dedicated fans or avid DVD collectors may want to consider purchasing the enhanced Blu-ray disc, but all "Crank: High Voltage" editions feature Spanish and English subtitles and full frame or widescreen viewing options.

I got a little distracted…
Okay, it's true that I'm not done with all the points I wanted to make on stories and storytelling and the creative impulse. But I got all distracted, see. By this.
That's my new mountain dulcimer. You won't believe me if I say this didn't come out of nowhere, because it more or less did.
I took piano lessons when I was little and decided I was not musical, because it didn't come easily to me. For a lot of reasons, failure was one of the things I was most scared of, so I spent most of my youth avoiding things that were difficult.
As an adult, I started learning how ridiculous that was, and little by little I've tried to become one of those people who, if she did not exactly embrace challenge, would still not run screaming from it. I took guitar lessons for several years and I am very fond of the guitar, but it doesn't feel friendly. I worked and worked and worked, and I gained a good set of skills, but the guitar is still not a place where I feel like I can go to express myself, or just let myself have fun.
In the past few days I've had mountain dulcimers on the mind, because a friend of mine got one for Christmas and posted a little video she made not a month later. We emailed back and forth a bit and I started reading up, pricing, thinking, sleeping on it.
But only a few days. Because I decided the thing I had to do, that I did not do with my guitar, was put hands on the instrument before I bought it. On Saturday I walked into the Appalachian Bluegrass Shoppe secure in the knowledge that I would not buy a dulcimer, and 40 minutes later I walked out with a dulcimer in a gig bag.
It's "used," in the sense of "previously owned," but it doesn't seem like it was played much. It's made of cherry wood and I think it's just beautiful. It was hand carved by a local craftsman. A real selling point was the head piece which is carved in the shape of a frog.
The shop owner said, "I think it's spent more time on someone's mantelpiece than being played." I can see why someone would display such a lovely thing, but that's not my aim. I'm already playing a few things, but importantly, I'm having fun with it. I'm letting myself experiment, try, and fail. Tuning it is a challenge: hand-carved means hand-carved fitted tuning pegs, which are the devil to hold steady and tighten without the note going flat. The neck is narrower than some of the other ones I played meaning some fretting tends to slop over the edge. But it's so much fun, and so immediately rewarding: the kind tones sound pretty even when you're not sure what you're doing.
Maybe I acted too quickly, but I don't think that matters. I think the fun in trying, even the fun in failing, is what matters. And that cute little frog, he matters too.

That: is entirely awesome.
BTW, I know you already travel in folk music circles up Baltimore way, but you might also consider adding House of Musical Traditions (here in Takoma Park) to your FB friendslist. They often post announcing concerts and new recordings.
Happy bonding with your new musical friend!
Jen - January 31, 2011
Amber, it was a toss-up as to whether I'd go to House of Musical Traditions or Appalachian Bluegrass, actually. But Kim called and the latter had lower-priced options. In fact that turned out to be because of this used one! Anyway, you make a good point, I need to add both of them to FB. I just don't tend to think of FB because I still don't really like using it a lot. =)
Pam - January 31, 2011
I love the froggie! If anything it will be pretty to have around and I admire you for learning a new instrument.
Jen - January 31, 2011
The frog was a big, big selling point!
I love having it around. I took it to my brother and sister-in-law's yesterday because tuning it was taking me a long time and I didn't want to leave it un-tuned. Then I just sat with it in my lap most of the day, sometimes playing it, sometimes not.
Cori - February 1, 2011
It is beautiful!

Bringing down the new Berlin Walls
The last thing the west wants is to dismantle the barriers separating "us" from "them". They are vit
By John Pilger Published 14 February 2008The recent breakout of the people of Gaza provided a heroic spectacle unlike any other since the Warsaw ghetto uprising and the smashing down of the Berlin Wall. Whereas on the occupied West Bank, Ariel Sharon's master plan of walling in the population and stealing their land and resources has all but succeeded, requiring only a Palestinian Vichy to sign it off, the people of Gaza have defied their tormentors, however briefly, and it is a guarantee they will do so again. There is profound symbolism in their achievement, touching lives and hopes all over the world.
"[Sharon's] fate for us," wrote Karma Nabulsi, a Palestinian, "was a Hobbesian vision of an anarchic society: truncated, violent, powerless, destroyed, cowed, ruled by disparate militias, gangs, religious ideologues and extremists, broken up into ethnic and religious tribalism, and co-opted [by] collaborationists. Look to the Iraq of today - that is what he had in store for us and he nearly achieved it."
Israel's and America's experiments in mass suffering nearly achieved it. There was First Rains, the code name for a terror of sonic booms that came every night and sent Gazan children mad. There was Summer Rains, which showered bombs and missiles on civilians, then extrajudicial executions, and finally a land invasion. Ehud Barak, the current Israeli defence minister, has tried every kind of blockade: the denial of electricity for water and sewage pumps, incubators and dialysis machines and the denial of fuel and food to a population of mostly malnourished children. This has been accompanied by the droning, insincere, incessant voices of western broadcasters and politicians, one merging with the other, platitude upon platitude, tribunes of the "international community" whose response is not to help, but to excuse an indisputably illegal occupation as "disputed" and damn a democratically elected Palestinian Authority as "Hamas militants" who "refuse to recognise Israel's right to exist" when it is Israel that demonstrably refuses to recognise the Palestinians' right to exist.
"What is being hidden from the [Israeli] public," wrote Uri Avnery, a founder of Gush Sha lom, the Israeli peace movement, on 26 January, "is that the launching of the Qassams [rockets from Gaza] could be stopped tomorrow. Several months ago, Hamas proposed a ceasefire. It repeated the offer this week . . . Why doesn't our government jump at this proposal? Simple: to make such a deal, we must speak to Hamas . . . It is more important to boycott Hamas than to put an end to the suffering of Sderot. All the media co-operate with this pretence." Hamas long ago offered Israel a ten-year ceasefire and has since recognised the "reality" of the Jewish state. This is almost never reported in the west.
The inspiration of the Palestinian breakout from Gaza was dramatically demonstrated by the star Egyptian midfielder Mohamed Abou treika. Helping his national side to a 3-0 victory over Sudan in the African Nations Cup, he raised his shirt to reveal a T-shirt with the words "Sympathise with Gaza" in English and Arabic. The crowd stood and cheered, and hundreds of thousands of people around the world expressed their support for him and for Gaza. An Egyptian journalist who joined a delegation of sports writers to Fifa to protest against Aboutreika's yellow card said: "It is actions like his that bring many walls down, walls of silence, walls in our minds."
In the murdochracies, where most of the world is viewed as useful or expendable, we have little sense of this. The news selection is unremittingly distracting and disabling. The cynicism of an identical group of opportunists laying claim to the White House is given respectability as each of them competes to support the Bush regime's despotic war-making. John McCain, almost certainly the Republican nominee for president, wants a "hundred-year war". That the leading Democratic candidates are a woman and a black man is of supreme irrelevance; the fanatical Condoleezza Rice is both female and black. Look into the murky world behind Hillary Clinton and you find the likes of Monsanto, a company that produced Agent Orange, the war chemical that continues to destroy Vietnam. One of Barack Obama's chief whisperers is Zbigniew Brzezinski, architect of Operation Cyclone in Afghanistan, which spawned jihadism, al-Qaeda and 9/11.
This malign circus has been silent on Palestine and Gaza and almost anything that matters, including the following announcement, perhaps the most important of the century: "The first use of nuclear weapons must remain in the quiver of escalation as the ultimate instrument to prevent the use of weapons of mass destruction." Inviting incredulity, these words may require more than one reading. They come from a statement written by five of the west's top military leaders, an American, a Briton, a German, a Frenchman and a Dutchman, who help run the club known as Nato. They are saying the west should nuke countries that have weapons of mass destruction - with the exclusion, that is, of the west's nuclear arsenal. Nuking will be necessary because "the west's values and way of life are under threat".
Where is this threat coming from? "Over there," say the generals.
Where? In "the brutal world".
An identifiable target
On 21 January, a day prior to the Nato announcement, Gordon Brown also out-Orwelled Orwell. He said that "the race for more and bigger stockpiles of nuclear destruction [sic]" is over. The reason he gave was that "the international community" (basically, the west) was facing "serious challenges". One of these challenges is Iran, which has no nuclear weapons and no programme to build them, according to America's National Intelligence Estimates. This is in striking contrast to Brown's Britain, which, in defiance of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, has commissioned an entirely new Trident nuclear arsenal at a cost believed to be as much as £25bn. What Brown was doing was threatening Iran on behalf of the Bush regime, which wants to attack Iran before the end of the presidential year.
Jonathan Schell, author of the seminal Fate of the Earth, provides compelling evidence in his recently published The Seventh Decade: the New Shape of Nuclear Danger that nuclear war has now moved to the centre of western foreign policy even though the enemy is invented. In response, Russia has begun to restore its vast nuclear arsenal. Robert McNamara, the US defence secretary during the Cuban crisis, describes this as "Apocalypse Soon". Thus, the wall dismantled by young Germans in 1989 and sold to tourists is being built in the minds of a new generation.
For the Bush and Blair regimes, the invasion of Iraq and the campaigns against Hamas, Iran and Syria are vital in fabricating this new "nuclear threat". The effect of the Iraq invasion, says a study cited by Noam Chomsky, is a "sevenfold increase in the yearly rate of fatal jihadist attacks".
Behold Nato's instant "brutal world".
Of course, the highest and oldest wall is that which separates "us" from "them". This is described today as a great divide of religions or "a clash of civilisations", which are false concepts, propagated in western scholarship and journalism to provide what Edward Said called "the other" - an identifiable target for fear and hatred that justifies invasion and economic plunder. In fact, the foundations for this wall were laid more than 500 years ago when the privileges of "discovery and conquest" were granted to Christopher Columbus in a world that the then all-powerful pope considered his property, to be disposed of according to his will.
Nothing has changed. The World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organisation and now Nato are invested with the same privileges of conquest on behalf of the new papacy in Washington. The goal is what Bill Clinton called the "integration of countries into the global free-market community", the terms of which, noted the New York Times, "require the United States to get involved in the plumbing and wiring of other nations' internal affairs more deeply than ever before".
This modern system of dominance requires sophisticated propaganda that presents its aims as benign, even "promoting democracy in Iraq", according to BBC executives responsible for responding to sceptical members of the public. That "we" in the west have the unfettered right to exploit the economies and resources of the poor world while maintaining tariff walls and state subsidies is taught as serious scholarship in the economics departments of leading universities. This is neoliberalism - socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor. "Rather than acknowledging," wrote Chalmers Johnson, "that free trade, privatisation and the rest of their policies are ahistorical, self-serving economic nonsense, apologists for neoliberalism have also revived an old 19th-century and neo-Nazi explanation for developmental failure - namely, culture."
What is rarely discussed is that liberalism as an open-ended, violent ideology is destroying liberalism as a reality. Hatred of Muslims is widely advertised by those claiming the respectability of what they call "the left". At the same time, opponents of the new papacy are routinely smeared, as seen in the recent fake charges of narcoterrorism against Hugo Chávez. Having insinuated their way into public debate, the smears deflect authentic critiques of Chá vez's Venezuela and prepare the ground for an assault on it.
This is the role that journalism has played in the invasion of Iraq and the great injustice in Palestine. It also represents a wall, on which Aldous Huxley, describing his totalitarian utopia in Brave New World, might have written: "Oppo sition is apostasy. Fatalism is ideal. Silence is preferred." If the people of Gaza can disobey all three, why can't we?

The manufacturing economies of the USA, Israel and the UK, the prosperity of many billionaire proprietors and well-paid employees are now largely dependent upon the killing business. The Zionist-Palestinian War alone is the pretext for $3bn of 'defence' subsidy annually from the US to the Jewish state which bounces back in the form of arms orders. The outbreak of peace between Israel and Palestine would be a disaster for the 3 countries first named. It won't be allowed, whoever enters the White House..
It is not USA or Israel who are too strong and too clever, it is the Arabs who are to weak and brainless. Poor Gazans, they can only struggle, brave hunnger ans desaese in order to survice. Here is the justice of the free, fair and democratic west for all to behold. SHAME on both Arabs and the west.
Note to newcomers:
Avihu (aka NadavKatz ) is actually a primitive zionist artificial intelligence device for generating mindnumbingly moronic propaganda - don't waste brain cells reading his posts.
Pilger has always spoken the otherside of the story, which normally goes "unnoticed". This article also stands out, given the crap we the readers get from the western press.
without even reading this article, i can tell it will pee me off. ARGH. why does this man continue to operate under the veneer of journalism
Can anyone explain to me - this the writer of this article will not dare do so - what is "heroic" about Hamas's launching Qassam rockets on a daily basis into the heart of the civilian socialist farming communities of the western Negev and into the heart of working class towns of S'derot, Ofaqim and Ashqelon, all with the intent to mass murder as many civilians as possible - man, woman and child - as part of the process of Islamising the whole region?
And, is the "progressive" publication of the New Statesman the place that should host such a writer who in essence calls for the continuation of the mass murder of civilians?
Heh. It never fails, John.
Interesting article, and hats off to the photographer. Very pleasing to see that crappy wall being trampled underfoot. It and its builders deserve no better.
Hamas TV indoctrinates children with such hate
"But I, Assud, will get rid of the Jews, Allah willing, and I will eat them up, Allah willing, right?"
Watch the clip:
The far right in Israel uses the Palestinian threat as a usful tool to keep political power. They like Hamas to fire their rockets and kill a few civilians to keep people on their toes and underline the necessity for a tough line in relation to the Palestinians. The Right doesn't want peace, it wants continual war, because continual war means continual power for them.
Why do they want power? They want power so they can rob Israel and steal all they can at the same time as they boast of how incredibly patriotic they are. Nationalism, Patriotism, Religion, Rascism; have always been used for two things; first to grab political power, and second to rob the people at the same time.
In this respect the Israeli Right has learnt a lot from the European Fascist movements it so closely resembles. It's just a shame, and deeply tragic, that Israeli public opinon is just a gullable and easily manipulated as the people of Germany were.
Thank you, John Pilger. Perfectly written. Authentic, investigative journalists like Pilger are hard to find.

Paramore to continue without founding membersParamore have released a statement following the revelation that two of the group's founding members have quit the band.

The brothers' last performance with the band came in Orlando on December 12. The remaining members of Paramore claim they were not "really shocked" over the departure and claim that the band will continue without them. "We never for a second thought about leaving any of this behind," they said. "We really hope that you can be encouraged by the fact that the three of us who are still here are ready to take on another chapter of our journey together."

Netflix's Q3 Subscriber Loss Could be Churn AND Acquisition Related
Thursday, September 15, 2011, 3:05 PM ET
Posted by
Will Richmond
With Netflix today
its Q3 U.S. forecast by 1 million subscribers to 24 million, many observers are focused on the culprit being higher churn induced by the company's
recent pricing change
. Churn could well be the big driver
here, but the cause could
be the other side of the equation: a slowdown in new subscriber acquisitions, particularly for those just wanting the DVD-only plan. Until we get the actual breakdown with the Q3 results, we won't know for sure, but if it's both factors, then Netflix might be finding itself at the beginning of a very different chapter in its evolution.
By extrapolating from prior quarters, I had
previously estimated
that Netflix could have around 6.9 gross subscriber acquisitions in the U.S. in Q3. Since the company originally forecast to end Q3 with 25 million subscribers, that would imply net growth from Q2 of around 410K subscribers, which in turn would mean churning out 6.5 million subscribers. That level of churn would be at least 2.5-3 million higher than expected given prior history.
Now, with a new Q3 target of 1 million fewer U.S. subscribers, is Netflix experiencing even higher churn? Or having a harder time attracting new subscribers than planned? Or both? A key part of Netflix's impressive stock run-up over the past 2 years is due to its ability to add millions of subscribers each quarter. With the stock nose-diving almost 20% today, investors are surely wondering whether the subscriber growth engine - in the U.S. at least - is sputtering.
With exit barriers to the streaming service so low, it's to be expected that churn will be a fact of life for Netflix. But to stay a step ahead means having strong new additions. It's too early to know, but the combination of multiple online entertainment options (e.g. Hulu, Amazon, free, pay-TV, etc.) and diminished content appeal (Netflix recently lost the Sony movies due to a usage cap in their Starz deal) could well be starting to have an impact on Netflix's growth rate. With the Disney movies going away in March when the Starz deal expires, Netflix's streaming content will come in for even greater scrutiny.
Netflix has made no secret of its desire to morph into a full-fledged streaming company. But I continue to maintain it split streaming and DVDs too early. The combination delivered both choice and convenience, in a package no other competitor could match. I still don't fully understand the rationale for why Netflix felt compelled to split the services
and hike the entry price of streaming plus 1 DVD to $16/mo (about halfway into this
today there's another explanation). Having made the move though, it looks like the company is starting to pay the price. Over the next few quarters we'll get a better handle on both churn and subscriber acquisition performance which will reveal just how disruptive the service and price changes were.

Gotta love the DC Po-poPolice Ticket Jaywalker With Fatal Injuries
Charles Atherton, 73, a prominent citizen of Washington, D.C. who formerly worked as the secretary of the U.S. Commission on Fine Arts that advises the government on architecture and design in official Washington, was hit by a car last week as he walked across busy Connecticut Avenue in the nation's capital. Even though he was in critical condition and unresponsive at the scene, D.C. police issued him a $5 jaywalking ticket, reports The Associated Press.
On Saturday night, Atherton died from his injuries. His family found the jaywalking ticket tucked into this belongings at the hospital. He was found to be at fault for the accident since he was jaywalking.
Facing a public relations crisis, Police Capt. Willie Smith told The Washington Post, "We knew it was a serious injury, but we didn't know it was life-threatening." He acknowledged that had the police known Atherton would die, they would not have issued the ticket.

TV: United 93 (Paul Greengrass 2006)
We found this on the TV after we'd unsuccessfully visited three picture theatres looking for current movies ("Sorry, It's booked out but Harry Brown / The Prince of Persia starts at the same time" "No thanks"). Given that we know the outcome from the first moments, it's amazingly gripping, an exercise in imaginative empathy.

Le Concert (Radu Mihaileanu 2009)
This abounds in stereotypes, implausibilities, plot clunks and inconsistencies, hamfisted humour, political incorrectness and stuff that's clearly lost in translation. Then in the last 20 minutes or so it gives us a brilliant, heartwrenching, exhilarating musical sequence that must surely be a total classic. (Incidentally, the English title ought surely to be The Concerto.)

Bond Funds Suffer Biggest Redemptions Since June as Yields Surge
Aug. 28 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. bond mutual funds last week suffered their biggest redemptions since June as yields reached a two-year high amid speculation that the Federal Reserve will begin cutting back asset purchases.
Bond funds had withdrawals of $11.1 billion in the week ended Aug. 21, the Washington-based Investment Company Institute said today in an e-mailed statement. It was the largest move out of bond funds since the week ended June 26, when $28.2 billion was withdrawn.
The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note reached 2.89 percent Aug. 21, the highest since July 2011, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Rates climbed amid signs that a strengthening U.S. economy could prompt the Fed to scale back its asset-buying program as soon as September. Bonds lose value as rates rise.
Investors pulled $7.38 billion from taxable-bond funds last week and $3.77 billion from municipal-bond funds. Funds that buy U.S. stocks had net redemptions of $387 million while those that purchase international equities took in $1.72 billion.

Cambodia,Thailand troops clash…There goes again YELLOW Plot
24/01/20101(AP)–Phnom Penh – Cambodia's military says its troops have clashed briefly with Thai soldiers along a disputed border area.
Lieutenant General Chea Tara, deputy armed forces commander and field commander for the area, said Cambodia suffered no casualties in the fighting on Sunday, about 12 miles (20 kilometres) east of Preah Vihear temple. He said fighting began when Thai troops intruded into Cambodian territory.
Defence Ministry spokesman Lieutenant General Chhum Socheach said there had been two firefights lasting about five minutes each beginning shortly after 9am (0200 GMT, 10am Singapore time).
Thai military authorities could not immediately be contacted for confirmation of the fighting in an area which has seen several deadly clashes in the past couple of years.

Oakland Ranch, Estate of the Day
In general when I choose a house for estate of the day it is based on the house itself. But it would be impossible to cover Oakland Ranch, a large home in Grandview, Texas, without covering the decor. This home has the largest doll collection I have ever seen outside of a museum. Several rooms feature cabinets full of dolls. The home itself is quite impressive is classic Texas. It sits on 230 acres with fountains, a swimming pool, pool house with a kitchen and a wetbar, rose garden, dining pergola, herb garden, barn, gazebo, swimming hole and more. The home has five bedrooms, a family room, library, study, game room, theater, brick wine room and a gym. The owners appear to be Gone With The Wind fans, both the home theater and the billiard room are decorated with Gone With The Wind signs (and many of the dolls look to be Gone With The Wind dolls). This home is just over the top luxury from every angle, the best that new money can buy. It is listed at $6.995 million. After the jump, welcome to the dollhouse.

Yeah, Claude is shady in my experience. Don't give him any money.

Sol is great in the videos, but he needs to sever the ties to Claude... |

I seem to recall that you could get the Sol vids from Doug Seven's website. I didn't really look into to much but if you are not so sure about dealing with Claude it might be worth a look. Cheers.

I took a chance on Claude. I had read all the bad stuff on the web.
I got the DVDs in about 2 weeks. The link to the tab was not complete, so I had to figure out the rest of the tab links. The DVDs were not shot in HD, but not bad. The instruction is very worth while, somewhat more advanced. I would recommend the DVDs. Since I ordered with a CC, I was prepared to let the CC company deal with Claude, but I didn't have to and I'm glad. |

Telemaster 81,
I believe I saw it on his blog at http://sizzlingguitarlicks.blogspot.com/. Down a bit on the right hand side you can select a topic. You'll find Sol Philcox there, click on it and it will take you to an old blog, about a year old or so IIRC. I tried the link to purchase it but it appeared to be Claude's old web page, so I didn't purchase it, higher price than I saw on a more updated page. I have Doug's vol 4 and that is enough for me right now. I will probably order more from Doug in the future any recommendations? Ken |

I purchased the DVD pack about 1yr ago. It took about a month to arrive but that is international shipping and the shipping was free too.
The DVD's are great and from time to time he (Claude) emails specials. I got my set for half price. A few months later he was doing a special with the Sol Chicken Pickin' & Sol Blues sets combined. Will |
