I guess a lot of politicians and their staffers in DC are on vacation this week, because I thought some headlines in Wednesday's newspapers might have prompted some outrage on the future of GM.
"Rescue Plan Would Give U.S. Most of GM's Stock," read the headline above the fold on the front page of the Washington Post.
But the news that the US would get almost 70% of the stock in the company that comes out of bankruptcy hardly made a ripple on Capitol Hill.
I know I'm not on the email list of all 535 members of the House and Senate, but you would figure someone out there would send out an email on that story.
Nope. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
Did I mention that the story says the feds will dump in another $30 billion into GM? On top of almost $20 billion already?
Over the next few days, GM looks like it will go into Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and then we'll see what details emerge of the role the US Government will have.
RIght now, it looks like the US and Canadian governments will control around 75% - maybe more - of GM's stock.
That's what a lot of people would call "Government Motors" for sure.
Maybe the Congress might make some noise about it as well.
Stay tuned.

We Blew It
by John WalshJanuary 03, 2007
OK, everybody who thought that last year's trade of Alfonso Soriano for Brad Wilkerson was a good deal for the Rangers, hold up your hand. C'mon, get 'em up—don't worry, you're not alone. My own mitt is sheepishly raised. When the trade was made about a year ago, many commentators cited the trade as another example of Washington general manager Jim Bowden's ineptitude. I don't want to single out any particular blogger; if you want to go back and read individual posts, it's easy to find them (Google "+Soriano +Wilkerson +trade" for a sampling). Suffice to say that most bloggers thought Bowden had made a major mistake—and it wasn't even close.
I didn't actually write anything about the trade, but I nodded knowingly while reading those pieces and was totally in agreement with my sabermetrically inclined colleagues. Now it's time to admit the mistake.
The Trade
First some background: in December of 2005, the Nationals and Rangers made a four-player trade: the Nats obtained Soriano while the Rangers got Wilkerson, fourth-outfielder Terrmel Sledge and a minor league pitcher named Armando Galarraga. Sledge was 28 years old, had missed the previous season with a torn hamstring, and even when he played he wasn't very good. A month later he was a throw-in in the big trade with San Diego, which sent Adrian Gonzalez and Chris Young to the Pads in exchange for Akinori Otsuka and Adam Eaton. Galarraga, at the time, was a 24-year-old mid-to-low-level prospect, who had struggled in a half-season at the Double-A level. The trade involved money issues as well: Soriano was set to make about $10 million, while Wilkerson was making $4 million. Also, Soriano was to be a free-agent in 2007, while Wilkerson would remain under the Rangers' control for two full seasons.
So, the deal was a bit complex, but let's just break it down as Soriano vs. Wilkerson. If you go back and read the commentary at the time, just about everybody was evaluating the trade by comparing these two players straight up. That makes sense in a way, as you often hear the "winner" of a trade is the team who gets the best player in the deal. So who got the best player in this deal?
Here's what the two players ended up doing in 2006:
+-----------+------+------+------+----+------+------+------+-------+-------+-------+ | Player | PA | R | H | HR | RBI | SB | CS | AVG | OBP | SLG | +-----------+------+------+------+----+------+------+------+-------+-------+-------+ | Soriano | 726 | 119 | 179 | 46 | 95 | 41 | 17 | 0.277 | 0.351 | 0.560 | | Wilkerson | 363 | 56 | 71 | 15 | 44 | 3 | 2 | 0.222 | 0.306 | 0.422 | +-----------+------+------+------+----+------+------+------+-------+-------+-------+There's really no contest, is there? Wilkerson missed half the season because of injuries, but even when he was in there, his performance paled beside that of Soriano. So, what happened? How did so many people pick Wilkerson to have the better year, or at least claim that Wilkerson is the better player?
The Almighty Walk
Well, one thing that I think happened is a lot of saber-minded folks don't really like players like Alfonso Soriano. Why? Because they don't walk much and hence they don't excel in getting on base. On-base-percentage is justly regarded as the single most important contribution to run scoring and, at the time of the trade, Wilkerson had a big edge over Soriano in career OBP: .365 to .320. But, as the saying goes, there is more than one way to skin a cat, or produce on a ball field. Soriano had a big edge of his own: the ability to drive the ball for extra bases. Soriano's career slugging percentage (through 2005) topped Wilkerson's, .500 to .452. Now, it's generally accepted that a point of OBP is more valuable than a point of SLG, so perhaps Wilkerson has an edge here due to his higher OBP. But, Soriano had other advantages over Wilkerson: his speed and the fact that he played a premium defensive position.
Through 2005, Soriano had stolen 169 bases at an 80% success rate, while Wilkerson had swiped only 43 bases at a decidedly uninspiring success rate of 55%. And, although Soriano was generally considered a poor second baseman, there is value in getting a big bat in the lineup at a traditionally weak-hitting position. Now, whether Soriano's bat was actually compensating for his defense—that is not an easy question to answer with any degree of certainty. But we can try. Using one defensive metric, Baseball Prospectus' FRAA (that's Fielding Runs Above Average), Soriano averaged -9 runs for 2001-2005. The offensive difference between an average-hitting second baseman and an average-hitting corner outfielder is generally larger than nine runs, so despite the weak glove, Soriano's defensive position is a net gain. Wilkerson is an OF/1B type.
So, Wilkerson looked to be a slightly better hitter perhaps, but one could argue that Soriano compensated with his speed and by playing a premium position on defense. In any case, it's seems hard to make the case, at this point, that Wilkerson was clearly the better player, which is what we were saying a year ago.
On The Road
I haven't mentioned park effects at at all and the fact that the trade had Soriano moving from a hitter's park in Texas to a pitcher's park in Washington had many predicting hard times for Alfonso in 2006. Some pundits at the time sought to shed light on the home park issue by comparing only the road stats of the players. And when you do that, a red flag certainly goes up for Soriano:
Home/Road Splits, 2004-2005 Home Road Soriano .316/.357/.593 .234/.278/.409 Wilkerson .250/.371/.456 .253/.355/.449The problem is, just looking a player's road performance and giving it preference to his full record is just a bad idea. For one, doing this throws out half the information we know about the hitter, how is that going to increase our knowledge? It's much better to correct the home stats with a multi-year park factor (we'll get to park adjustments in a minute). Secondly, many players play better at home than on the road. We know this because teams win 54% of their home games and only 46% of their road games. So, you don't expect a player's road stats to reflect his overall ability. A third problem with focusing only on road stats is that, because of the unbalanced schedule, a team's road ballparks are not necessarily "average". All three of Texas' AL West rivals play in parks that have tended to suppress hitting in recent years. (This last point is also true when "correctly" applying park adjustments, but the error is compounded when you only consider the road stats.) And if you don't believe me on this road stats issue, here's what noted sabermetrician Mitchel Licthman thinks about the practice:
For one, or even several, years of data only, using road stats only is a HORRIBLE method of estimating player neutral performance or talent. Absolutely horrible. To simply ignore half of a player's performance because you are worried about properly neutralizing those home stats (which is admittedly problematic) is the epitome of throwing out the baby with the bath water.
The Perils of Park Factors
OK, so considering a player's road stats while tossing his home stats out the window is not the way to go. A better way is to apply park adjustments to a player's complete stats to try to take the effect of the home park into account. This is actually a tricky subject, because there are different park factors on the market and if you apply one blindly, you may not be doing the right thing or even doing what you want.
Park factors in their basic form are fairly simple: you calculate the number of runs scored in, for example, Rangers home games and divide that by the runs scored in Rangers away games. That gives a reasonable result, but you can improve things if you actually consider the number of innings played in the home and away games: the innings count can vary quite a bit, especially for teams with very good home records: the winning team does not usually bat in the bottom of the ninth. There is also quite a bit of statistical fluctuation in park factors—analysts attempt to minimize those by 1) using regression to the mean and/or 2) combining data over a period of several years.
OK, I don't want to give a treatise on park factors, but I wanted to point out that they aren't as simple as they seem. I'm wondering if some confusion about park factors contributed to the pessimistic judgments of Soriano a year ago. Ameriquest Field in Texas is rightly regarded as a hitter's park, but it's not Coors Field by any stretch of the imagination. The five-year park adjustment for Ameriquest from 2001-2005 is 107 (without any regression), which is a good hitter's park, but we're talking about a 7% correction to a Ranger's stat line. This can in no way explain Soriano's home/road stats that we saw above.
Soriano's new park in Washington, RFK Stadium, had a park adjustment of 93 in 2005, the only year of data available for that park. I'm using Baseball Reference as a source for park adjustments, because I'm guessing that many people do the same. That's a good pitcher's park, but it's only based on one year of data, and hence is "polluted" by statistical noise. In fact, the park adjustment for RFK in 2006 was much higher, at 97. Where the number settles down is anybody's guess, but the point is that putting too much faith in a one year park factor is rather dangerous.
What about Wilkerson's home parks? Wilkerson had been a regular from 2002-2005 at the time of the trade and his one year park adjustments from that period are 101, 118, 95 and 93. The last number is the already-mentioned RFK 2005 value and the 2003-2004 numbers (118 and 95) represent "combined" park factors when the Nats played a bunch of home games in Puerto Rico. I'm rather skeptical of these Monteal/Puerto Rico park adjustments, especially since the two years show such a wide variation—a 23% change in park adjustment in one year is very unusual. I'm not at all confident that those games in Puerto Rico did not add in even more "pollution" to the one-year numbers. To accentuate this issue, Wilkerson had his very best season in 2004, with an OPS of .892. The low park adjustment for 2004 gives him on OPS+ of 128, which to me looks like it's overestimated.
A last note on park factors: I actually don't like the Baseball Reference park factors, mainly because (since 1999) they are based on only a year's worth of data (although the description of the park factor calculation at bb-ref.com says the park factor is based on 3 years worth of data—this is not correct). Here at the Hardball Times we use the park factors calculated by the sabermetrician known as USPatriot. USPat uses five years of data (when available) and also includes some regression to the mean. His results can differ quite a bit from the Baseball Reference numbers: for example the 118, 95 that bb-ref.com finds for Montreal in 2003-2004 are calculated by USPat to be 102 and 104. Note that using this improved park factor, Wilkerson's 2004 OPS+ goes from 128 to 117. Oops.
Age and Durability
Is there any reason to think that Soriano's projection going forward from 2005 should have been downgraded due to age and/or durability issues? I don't think so. Soriano's 2006 seasonal age was 29, Wilkerson is one year younger. It's true that Soriano was past the canonical peak age of 27, but the downward slope of the aging curve is very shallow at age 29 and projecting a steep dropoff due to age would have been foolhardy. Furthermore, research has shown that fast, athletic players like Soriano tend to age better than average.
On the question of durability, there's not much difference between Soriano and Wilkerson, at least there wasn't before the 2006 season. From 2001-2005 Soriano was very durable, averaging 154 games per season. Wilkerson was pretty tough, as well, averaging 152 games per season from 2002-2005.
The Last Word
Just to recap—it seems to me that the rush to condemn Jim Bowden for the Soriano-Wilkerson trade a year ago may have been a bit hasty and overly hostile. I think a careful analysis at the time would have shown Soriano and Wilkerson to be players of comparable ability. I'm speculating that a superficial treatment of park effects and perhaps an ingrained prejudice against players with below-average plate discipline led many commentators astray when evaluating this trade.
Or maybe not. Maybe Wilkerson really was and still is a better player than Soriano. Perhaps 2006 was just an aberration—a career-year for Soriano and just an injury-marred bad-luck campaign for Wilkerson. It may be that another year or two of data will show Wilkerson's superiority. Perhaps, but I don't think so. I think we just blew this one.
References and Resources
Despite writing the the first person plural, I hope it is clear that I'm only speaking for myself in this piece. I'm sure many who weighed in on the Soriano-Wilkerson trade last year will not agree what you've read here.

The hand blender performs as described & I have used the enclosed chopper & whisk as well.
I'm loving the latest addition to my kitchen. The immersion blender worked great for my tomato bisque. The chopper handled onions with ease (but couldn't do the carrots). I made perfect deviled eggs by using the immersion blender attachment to break up the yolks and then the whip attachment to blend everything together. No lumps this time! Looking forward to more culinary adventures with this handy tool.
Love it. Immersion blender works great. The attachments are a great bonus.

The Placer County Board of Supervisors today approved the county's 2011 legislative platform at its regularly scheduled meeting. Each year, the Supervisors consider and approve a platform that directs staff in its efforts to support, oppose or sponsor federal and state legislation, in addition to coordinating the county's legislative advocacy programs.
The platform is used by the Supervisors with both the state and federal government executive and legislative branches to promote goals and proposals that are beneficial to all Placer County.
In addition, at today's meeting, the Supervisors authorized a county contingent to travel to Washington, D.C., in February to advocate for the county. That trip, which will consist of some Supervisors and the County Executive Officer, will include meetings with elected or appointed federal officials to discuss legislative and regulatory issues affecting Placer County.
Over the last several years, the Board's efforts have secured more than $105 million in federal funding, which has helped protect programs and county fiscal interests. This year, the platform will continue to seek federal funding for several County priorities. They include:
On the state level, advocacy efforts will focus on a number of key fiscal, policy and regulatory interests on behalf of the County. This would include, but not be limited to:
As in past years, the potential for cost reductions and/or increased revenue to the County can occur if the legislative platform is enacted. Funding for the annual legislative trip to Washington, D.C., is included in the county's Fiscal Year 2010-11 budget. The total estimated travel, lodging and related incidental cost is approximately $1,200 to $1,500 per Supervisor and will not exceed $6,000.

The 10 Craziest Console Mods Not Used for Gaming
Some console mods are absolutely breathtaking. From an R2-D2 that simultaneously plays every major console ever made with a built-in projector, to XBox 360 laptops, the modding world is a vast, wonderful world of skill and productivity. But then there's the people who take prized video games that could provide any person with thousands of hours of joy, and make them into accessories, or non-gaming gadgets. This is what this list features. Some are absolutely tragic, while others are absolutely awesome. These are the craziest ideas in the history of modern console modding.

Nintendo System Desk Organizers
For some reason, for me, this is the one. This is the worst one. This one really seems like the biggest waste because Nintendo systems aren't made by Microsoft. The NES I still have feels like it's going to last long enough for me to play with my children. So, this, to me, is the most offensive thing you could do to a working system.BUY @ AMAZON
If you're doing this to a dead system you don't plan on restoring, then this is actually kind of fine, yet a little creepy (kind of like when people's pets die and they stuff them and make them into side tables).
GreenCub, a console/controller modder making a name for his/herself on Etsy, is taking old Nintendo systems like the N64 and the GameCube and giving us desk organizers made out of what may as well be ivory.
Sure, these look cool, but you could be playing these systems. Either way, they've found really cool ways to fit all your pencils, paperclips and other office supplies in them. They use every crevice of the system as a weird, kind of ad hoc way to keep very specific supplies. Replacing the wires with plastic and the holes with stops, they basically make this into one of those desk organizers that nobody wants to take with them when a company goes under -- only made of Game Cubes and Nintendo 64's.
I mean, think of the joy this could bring to a kid without a console:
Here's an example of what the desk organizers look like.
And here's what the office supply organizers look like (these are really the most brutal ones).
So for all your anal-retentive, "drawers and backpack zippers aren't good enough for me" needs, here's the following Etsy store.
Once you're done there, you could always head on over to your local taxidermist for such wonderful, similar decorative needs such as this: - 2
George Foreman Grill Made Out of a PS3

If I had a time machine, I'd go back in time to when people were waiting literal days in line to buy a PS3 and then serve everyone in line hamburgers from this George Foreman Grill.
The fine monsters who would be providing me with such a device are the guys over at The Real PS3 Grill who decided to sacrifice their PS3 so prematurely had the following mission statement:
"Their mission statement claims that the project was carried out to garner fame and glory, and for a very brief amount of time, they will indeed be on top of the world. Soon, however, everyone will forget about this amusing distraction in favor of playing their new gaming systems, while all these guys will have are a hopelessly outdated PS2 and a couple of leftover steaks".
Take that anyone who's ever donated games to charity!

Criminals Make Gaming Consoles into Tattoo Machines
When you're in prison and you don't have a tattoo machine, it's like going camping and forgetting to bring the board games or a deck of cards. It really just isn't the same.BUY @ AMAZON
Luckily, some prisoners have found a solution for this.
One prisoner in the Brook House Immigration Removal Centre in West Sussex was using what was left of a Playstation 1 machine as the internal motor to power a home made tattoo machine that he was using to ink up the other inmates.
Even though inmates are completely allowed to have a PS1, or any game system(why is it so bad to be in prison again?), the machine was confiscated and the tattoo frenzy came to an end.
After running the above story, Kotaku received an email from a man who works at a Maximum Security prison, informing him that a lot of prisoners have all kinds of systems. The least favored system among people who work at the prison, though, is the Nintendo 64.
Because they would use the rumble packs as tattoo guns, which would eventually have to be confiscated. How does one do this, do you ask?
Here are the instructions for the next time you're drunk at a party:
It is actually pretty easy. There are no workshops in maximum security. They do it in their rooms with a battery(power) taped to a tube(could be a pen or a tightly wound piece of paper). The motor from the rumble pack is taken out and attached to the top of the tube. A needle or pin is run down the middle of the tube. when "on" the needle will move up and down like a sewing machine. The needle is then dipped in "ink." This is made a number of ways the easiest is to use ball point pen ink, but they could use other items to get different colors or looks.
So yeah, this is the type of behavior is totally fine for convicts. They are the only ones excused (well, them and the people using recycled parts). - 4
Making Your XBox 360 into a Fleshlight
Of course this exists. We've all considered it at least once. A website that no longer exists, that used to specialize in the act of showing you how to take household items and make them into things that you could bang (if you're a guy), came up with the perfect, extremely effort-heavy way to bang your XBox 360, once and for all.
These guys basically modded the XBox 360 so that you could stand it up on its hot, stumpy, grey little legs, install some arms on it that are always at the sides, beckoning you to "play with it", then finally "turn it on" at the power switch hole with your fully adequate, two-inches-indiameter-sized penis.
Those holes are pretty small, but if there were any reason it would rule to have a small penis, it would be to have the ability to express to your XBox exactly what you've always wanted to.
Unfortunately, you can't buy one of these. This is only okay because XBox 360 consoles red ringed so often at the beginning that it's almost impossible for anything they're used for to not be using recycled parts. - 5
Making Your Old Controllers into "Tobacco" Pipes
Perfect. This is actually quite perfect. Yes, these are using controllers from great systems (like the N64), but this time they're actually going to a good cause.
The XBox 360 pipe merely takes out the guts, uses the guide button as a nut and allows you to use the cord holes (yes, this is the scientific term for this part of the controller, I swear) to suck your precious, precious "tobacco" from.
The classic Nintendo 64 controller pipe takes the middle handle and puts holes in it to make a carb, then the nut is put on top where the analog stick usually goes, and the "cord hole" (which I refuse to look up) is used to suck your wonderful magic through.
I'm okay with this, if not for just how ingenuous the idea was. Why not combine two of the greatest activities on earth?

The 10 Craziest Console Mods Not Used for Gaming at 9/12/2011 1:33 AMI hate replying to my own post, but it isn't letting me edit the first one.
Another comment I meant to mention before hitting "post" was about the Tattoo "gun"/"machine" entry.
I agree with you that it has always seemed strange to me the amount of options they end up having in prison, but there is an easy solution in this case. Force all prisoners to play nothing but the Revolution and Cafe. Of course, this would lead to mass suicide attempts and a ton of human rights violations. - cuthbert
The 10 Craziest Console Mods Not Used for Gaming at 9/12/2011 1:22 AMIf anything, Jesse, you should be praising them for using the term "gun" in this case. Pro tattoo artists do prefer "tattoo machine," but we're not talking about pro artists in this case. If anything, a REAL tattoo artist would be upset if anyone called that POS prison kit a real tattoo machine. - cuthbert
The 10 Craziest Console Mods Not Used for Gaming at 9/12/2011 1:19 AMGotta comment on a few things on this list.
Intro paragraph:
First, I have a hard time believing that there is an R2 that "simultaneously" plays multiple consoles. It might actually house a large number of consoles simultaneously, but actually playing them at the same time? That'd be quite a worthless mess when projected. Well, I guess technically you can say that it could do them all simultaneously as long as you had enough tv's for them all 9 (Such as needing 9 TV's to play 9 consoles simultaneously. Good luck finding a television with 9 sets of video in ports that can all be active at once).
NES Lunchbox:
"a perfectly good video game system that will not only be a HUGE collectible in ten years, but will probably still work at that time"
Are you a full blown crack addict or do you just dabble? Can't think why else you would say this. 61 million NES systems were sold. If even only 1% of them were around in 10 more years, for 610,000 systems in the wild, it still wouldn't be a huge collectible. This is even more so if you are meaning to imply that collectible = valuable. At best (and I consider this a massive longshot), the price might end up being around $50 in 10 years.
If you want to define "HUGE collectible" in a way other than scarcity of the product, then there is more of a chance for it to be a collectible item. - Brian Gilmore

Our weekly review of flicks that skipped Vermont theaters
This week in movies you missed: Rape happens with alarming frequency in the U.S. military. And most perpetrators get off scot-free.
What You Missed
Director Kirby Dick has brought us muckracking documentaries on closeted politicians who take public antigay stances (Outrage) and the MPAA ratings system (This Film Is Not Yet Rated). In The Invisible War, he sets his sights on a seeming epidemic of sexual assault in our armed forces. Twenty percent of female veterans report having experienced it, and it's not solely women; one study claims almost 20,000 male soldiers were sexually assaulted in 2009.
An estimated 80 percent of such crimes go unreported, and the film demonstrates why. The military's long-time policy has been to require soldiers to report all assaults to their unit commanders — even when those commanders are the perpetrators. Sgt. Myla Haider, who investigated such crimes and then became the victim of one, delivers a succinct judgment on the system. It might as well be designed, she says, "to help women get raped better."
Dick lets the survivors of these crimes speak for themselves in interviews. There are many, of both sexes and various ages; their stories are harrowing, and their anger is palpable. The film follows a group of women attempting to use legal action to bring attention to the issue.
They failed to initiate reform — but The Invisible War succeeded. A coda to the film notes that, two days after he watched it, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta announced new rules for the handling of sexual assault in the military. [1]
Why You Missed It
Aside from a screening last Saturday at the Vermont International Film Festival, The Invisible War never got here.
Should You Keep Missing It?
The Invisible War isn't the easiest film to watch, but it's worth it — not just to work up your outrage (though you should), but to learn more about today's military, who joins, and how it works (or doesn't).
Some viewers may not be happy that progressive filmmaker Dick doesn't take a stand against the military itself. But that's something I appreciated, because to use these women's testimony to bash the armed forces or America's "war culture" would not be true to them.
The interviewees are highly diverse: a married lesbian in San Francisco; a Christian mom in Ohio; a military brat (Seaman Recruit Hannah Sewell, pictured with her father, Sgt. Major Jerry Sewell) who called her dad in tears to tell him she was no longer a virgin. Some are emotional; others are stoic. What they all seem to share is a strong commitment to military service. In most cases, the commitment is still there, coupled with an astonishment at how badly the system — and, in some cases, fellow soldiers they considered their "brothers" — betrayed them.
It's a sobering documentary that will make you think about why rape culture thrives in certain closed environments (male-on-male rape, too, we're reminded), and what we can do about it. Is it enough to tell women to walk in pairs and men to "wait until she's sober," as the armed forces has been doing through its preventive campaign? Not even close. The problem, we're shown, involves egregious and deliberate abuse of power by individuals who know they won't face consequences. Change won't come until they do.
Verdict: an advocacy doc that does more than preach to the converted.

Arrive in Delhi and transfer to the hotel. There will be a notice informing of the time of the introductory group meeting this evening. Here we'll meet our Tour Leader and fellow traveling companions and go over the logistics of the upcoming adventure. Following the meeting we will have our first Indian feast.
In the morning, we will have an orientation walk of Old Delhi, visiting Delhi's famous Jama Masjid (Great Mosque). We also walk through Chandni Chowk, one of India's oldest and busiest local markets with is narrow laneways and colorful people it is a reflection of another time and world. We also learn the history of the Sikh religion at the important Gurduwara, which is a Sikh place of worship. In the afternoon we catch the flight to Varanasi. the quintessential Indian holy city, where millions of Hindus travel for pilgrimage, to worship, to mourn or to die. in the afternoon, we take boats out onto the sacred Ganges River at sunset, enjoying a candle and flower ceremony accompanied by sitar and tabla playing, and observe an evening Arti ceremony.
In the morning, we take a sunrise boat trip along the Ganges river. Walk the narrow twisting alleys, poke around some of the literally thousands of temples and shrines, and experience the energy of the dawn rituals of bathing and burial as we float past the famous ghats of the Ganges. Sitting on the banks of the River Ganges, we can contemplate what it means to be in Varanasi, the oldest continually inhabited city in the world, dating back thousands of years. The culture of Varanasi is deeply associated with the river Ganges and its religious importance. The city has been a cultural and religious center in northern India for thousands of years. During the day, we visit Sarnath where Lord Buddha preached his first sermon. Nearby we stop at the magnificent Stupas built in the third century by emperor Ashoka and visit the Museum.
Late in the morning we catch our flight to Khajuraho. In the afternoon visit the Western Temples, and take a yoga class. In the evening, enjoy a local Kandariya Dance Show. One of the most popular destinations in India, Khajuraho is home to India's largest group of medieval Hindu temples. These are famous for their erotic sculptures depicting scenes from the Kama Sutra. Only discovered in the 20th century after being reclaimed by jungle, the Khajuraho group of monuments is today protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Khajuraho was once the religious capital of the Chandela Rajputs, a Hindu dynasty that ruled this part of India from the 10th to the 12th centuries. The Khajuraho temples were built over a span of a hundred years, from 950 to 1050, with the whole area enclosed by a wall with eight gates, each flanked by two golden palm trees. There were originally over 80 Hindu temples, of which only 22 now stand in a reasonable state of preservation, scattered over an area of about 8 sq miles (21 km²). Learn the history of these world-famous temples on a guided tour and enjoy a taste of a little erotica from the Middle Ages. Optional activities include a nearby seasonal waterfall, and a sound and light show within the temple complex itself.
Today we travel by train to Agra, home of the Taj Mahal. Traveling by train in India is truly a local experience, a great chance to meet locals and to view the countryside as it unfolds in front of you. The rail network is extensive and relatively inexpensive way for people to travel long distances. Indian Railways has the largest rail network in Asia and the world's second largest under one management, transporting 20 million passengers and more than 2 million tonnes of freight daily. Our train journey terminates in Agra one of the most strategic city of the Mughal Empire. Akbar chose this city on the bank of River Yamuna as his capital and proceeded to build a strong citadel for the purpose.
This morning we visit the Taj Mahal and also the great Red Fort. In the afternoon we proceed onwards to Ranthambore. The Muslim city of Agra is best known as the site of India's most famous landmark, and testament to love, the Taj Mahal. It was built before the Taj Mahal by Nur Jahan, Queen of Jehangir, for her parents. The first Mughal building to be faced with white marble and where 'pietra dura', precious stones inlaid into marble, was first used. Constructed between 1631 and 1654 by a workforce of 22,000, the Taj Mahal was built by the Muslim Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan as a mausoleum for his favorite wife, Arjumand Bano Begum, better known as Mumtaz Mahal. Mumtaz had already borne the emperor fourteen children when she died in childbirth, and it is the romantic origin of the Taj as much as its architectural splendor that has led to its fame worldwide. Actually an integrated complex of many structures, the Taj Mahal is considered the finest example of Mughal architecture, itself a combination of Islamic, Hindu, Persian and Turkish elements. The Red Fort is one of the largest of the fortified residences built at various strategic points of Mughal Empire; it had over five hundred buildings. Most of the buildings added later use marble as the chief construction material. At the time of Akbar, River Yamuna touched the fort and thus, a number of ghats were built here. Some of these ghats were meant to load and unload goods transported through river and other covered passages were for use by the harem inmates only. Shahjahan who was responsible for the building of the Taj was kept captive by his own son Aurangzeb in the Red Fort. He did give his father a room with a view of the Taj Mahal, built by him. In the evening we arrive at Ranthambore, with its 1000 year old fort overlooking the park you will have time to relax and take in your surrondings before heading out on safari on day 7.
We enjoy two safari drives into the park exploring its lakes and scrublands in search of wildlife which can include deer, birds and monkeys. If we are lucky, we may even see one of the resident tigers. We also visit the ruined fort and Ganesh temple, which is frequented by many local people to make an offering. Ranthambore was once the private hunting grounds of the Maharaja of Jaipur and its rich heritage manisfests itself in its many Chatris, forts and and hunting lodges that survive this era and give the park its heritage status. It is one of Rajasthan's last remaining sizeable areas of forest and savannah, that were once part of the great jungles covering central India. The park has a magnificent diversity of flora and fauna, with over 250 species of birds, 30 species of mammals including the majestic Royal Bengal tiger and 12 species of reptiles. In the park there are 36 Tigers and during our safaris in the sanctuary we will be on the look out for these beautiful but aloof creatures. Apart from the tiger, you can also observe Sloth Bear, Wild Boar, Chinkara, Porcupines and Jackals, Leopard, Jungle Cat, Marsh Crocodile, Sambhar, Chital, Nilgai, Gazzelle, Boars, Mongoose, Indian Hare, Monitor Lizards and a large number of birds. Most of these wild animals can be spotted near the lakes and water holes during the evening.
Today after a leisurely breakfast we travel to India's Pink City of Jaipur. Founded in 1728, Jaipur, or The Pink City as it is often called, is unlike any other pre-modern Indian city. The entire town was planned according to the principles of Hindu architectural theory. The city is in fact built in the form of a nine-part mandala known as the Pithapada, which combined with wide streets makes for an unusually airy, orderly atmosphere. The results of this urban planning have so endured to this day, present day population approximately 3 million, is nothing short of miraculous.
Today we explore the city of Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, with visits to the City Palace, Palace of the Winds and impressive Amber Fort. Enter the heart of the mandala, on foot or by cycle-rickshaw, and we are in the central palace quarter with its sprawling Hawa Mahal palace complex, formal gardens and a small lake. Built in 1799, the Hawa Mahal, Palace of Winds, was part of the City Palace, an extension of the Zenana or chambers of the harem. Its original intention was to allow royal ladies to observe everyday life in the street below without being seen. Constructed of red and pink sandstone highlighted with white lime, the five-storied facade is peppered with 953 small windows. The breeze, hawa, that comes through the windows keeps it cool even in hot months, and gives the palace its name. We also visit the ruined city of Amber, former capital of Jaipur state. Founded by the Meenas, Amber was a flourishing settlement as far back as 967 AD. Overlooking the artificial lake south of Amber town stands the Amber Fort/Palace complex, famous for its mixture of Hindu and Muslim architecture. At the bottom of a hill sits Amber Fort, initially a palace complex within the Fort of Amber on top of the hill, today known as Jaigarh fort. The two forts are connected through well-guarded passages, and there is even the option of an elephant ride from the town up to the palace courtyard.
This morning we drive to the village of Jojawar where we check into our historic, heritage hotel. The hotel was built in the 18th century and has played host to many elite people during the British Raj. Set amidst the Aravalli hills, this little garrison fort was once a major principality of the Royal house of Marwar. Bestowed with the title of Rao, the nobles looked after this little fiefdom for about two centuries after its construction in the 18th century. Our stay here offers an opportunity to meet with locals provides fascinating insight into rural village life in India, get into the wilderness of the countryside and also take a chance of taking an exciting local train safari through the Aravali Hill ranges.
We continue on to Udaipur, famous for its lakes and Raj-era palaces. Most famous of these, and certainly the most photographed, is the Lake Palace. The Lake Palace is an island-palace where the white marble buildings, now a hotel, entirely cover a small island in Lake Pichola. Originally known as the Jag Niwas, the palace took three years to build and was inaugurated in 1746. We will do a city walk during which we include a visit to the City Palace There are plenty of options for our free time, such as a journey out to the hilltop Monsoon Palace, summer resort of the Maharajas. Sitting atop a hill with a panoramic view of the city's lakes, it a great place for sunset viewing. The city's lakes — Pichola, Fateh Sagar, Udai Sagar and Swaroop Sagar — are considered among the most beautiful in Rajasthan. A boat ride on lake Pichola is a great way to spend a lazy afternoon.
Today we tour the amazing City Palace, one of the largest royal palaces in India, full of unbelievable treasures. We also visit Jagdish Temple, built in 1651 AD, dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe.

Sky high glamour ... destined for beauty. Photo: Julian Kingma
"It was a real journey,'' people say when they've experienced something awful (or ''challenging''). If they haven't been having an ''interesting journey'' they're reminding us, helpfully, that ''it's the journey, not the destination'' that matters, especially should we become slightly enthusiastic about something. Do I find journey-related platitudes palling? Absolutely (which is the common utterance I formerly found most irritating). But some journeys are worth noting, especially the type you may be undertaking this week with the Easter break. It is the destination that is most important when the days off are so tightly numbered and I have come across some odd little beauty aids that might make the getting there - whether by car or train or especially by plane - more bearable. Or give the appearance of reducing the signs of aggravation, anyway.
There was a time not so long ago - early Seventies? - when people dressed up to travel. Lipstick, powder, cigarette holder, the works. Flying, particularly, was glamorous. Sigh. These days people just want to get on with it and either a) dress in kinfolk of pyjamas (ugh boots, trackies etc) or b) dress for the destination (sarong at 6am Melbourne Airport etc). No one sees you - you're either jammed and crammed in at the back of the plane or cocooned in your business pod minding your own business (sometimes literally and even on Good Friday). If this applies to you then applying SilcSkin adhesive patches to your face might be viable if you fancy a serene visage upon disembarkation. First class is, of course, just one champagne-fuelled party (I'll confirm this when able) and you will not be wanting to have silicone pads attached to your wrinkles. The idea behind the $47.30 pack of four patches is that the medical-grade silicone will relax existing lines and, over the long-term (nights in bed at home not 20.5 hours non-stop from Sydney to London) retrain facial muscles. Sort of a stick-on, ''natural'' alternative to Botox. Sort of.
First class is, of course, just one champagne-fuelled party (I'll confirm this when able) and you will not be wanting to have silicone pads attached to your wrinkles.
If you'd like to look a little more natural than that en route then some mid-air Jet Lag Spritz ($29.50 for 100ml) might better suit. It contains pure essential oils of peppermint (refreshing), sweet geranium (balancing) and lime oil (revitalising). ''Should you run into a travel dilemma, this combination helps to ease tension and nervousness,'' says creator Marie-Adele. Sounds good for drivers, too. Take it easy on the roads.
Now you could stash your patches and/or your spray and your nifty travel-sized products (Skeyndor does a four-piece skincare set that includes a hydrating masque for $55) into a luxurious cow hide zip purse from Australian label Pratten. They are meant for makeup but are elegant enough to double as a clutch once you reach the beach/retret/mountain/theme park/in-laws'. They come in candy-coloured versions of the new-season purple, orange and yellow (from $69). Too gorgeous. As will you be after a little break. Happy Easter to you all. And please do add any hints or product suggestions for getting to your holiday destination looking as beautiful as possibly manageable. Absolutely!

Back in the middle of the year we were considering adding Chatfield bronzeware to the range of products we offer to our customers. So I emailed Chatfield Engineering in NZ to ask them for a catalogue.
Chatfield didn't reply. Instead, I got an email from a company calling themselves Southern Seas Marine here in Oz, saying that they were Chatfield's Australian distributor, and offering to send me a catalogue and price list.
I accepted the offer. No catalogue. I prompted them again. Still no catalogue.
So I wrote to Chatfield once more saying that if we were to do business with them it would have to be direct (and implying that I didn't think their local distributor was representing their interests very well.)
Still no answer from Chatfield, but another reply from this SS Marine, with the same offer as the first time. The reply was from the same person there, and he'd clearly forgotten entirely about my earlier request.
So again I accepted his offer. And again I've heard nothing further from him.
Now, as we know, we Forumites collectively represent the largest single concentration of users of marine bronze products anywhere in the world. So my question to you -- not entirely rhetorical -- is, if the non-existent service I've outlined here is typical, how have Chatfield and its local distributor managed to stay in business into the 21st Century??

5/26/2010: God and Man in the World - National Review Online |
http://article.nationalreview.com/434473/god-and-man-in-the-world/interview Leonard Leo is chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, which late last month issued its annual report on the state of religious freedom in the world. With recommendations to Congress, they singled out Burma, China, North Korea, Eritrea, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam as countries of "particular concern" because of their treatment of human rights. From Indonesia, Leo talked to National Review Online's Kathryn Jean Lopez about the report, the mission of the commission, the state of religious liberty in the world, and why it should matter here. |
