Turmoil in Assam likely to hit supplies of essentials, fears Minister
The agitations for statehood within Assam are affecting neighbouring Tripura, with a hardliner party of indigenous people announcing plans to agitate for a separate State.
The turmoil in the landlocked State of Assam — especially in the Bodoland and Karbi Anglong areas — has hit the railways and roadways that serve as Tripura's lifelines for transport of essential commodities and petroleum products.
"Tripura would suffer if the current tension continues in Assam," Transport Minister Manik Dey told The Hindu on Saturday.
He lashed out at the Central government for the restive situations prevailing in different parts of the country. The Minister said "the Congress is responsible for this [tension] and they should [resolve] this."
Mr. Dey described the situation in places like Bodoland's Kokrajhar as "alarming" and warned that all seven States in and around the region would be affected.
Meanwhile, the ruling CPI (Marxist) has strongly opposed the demand of the Indigenous People's Front of Tripura (IPFT) for carving out a separate tribal State out of Tripura. "This is a dangerous and divisive demand and needs to be vehemently condemned," the party's State secretary Bijan Dhar said.
The IPFT has announced its decision to hold a rally here on August 23."We want a separate State with areas under the tribal autonomous district council. This is a justified demand to protect our identity, culture and customs," IPFT president Narendra Chandra Debbarma told journalists.
The Tripura tribal autonomous district council was established by the sixth schedule of the Constitution in 1982 and the council has jurisdiction over three-fourths of the State.
"We appeal to the people to reject this destructive demand of the IPFT. It is trying to confuse the people from the tribal community," said Mr. Dhar.
Keywords: Tripura, Telangana issue, Tribal areas, Autonomous council, IPFT, CPI(M)

15 of the Best Android Games for Smartphones and Tablets15 of the Best Android Games for Smartphones and Tablets
While there are some who consider mobile gaming a watered-down, casual affair, the continuing release of excellent mobile games along a wide variety of genres is challenging that line of thinking.

But the Google Play marketplace is a crowded one and quality games can sometimes be little nuggets of gold in a raging torrent of shovelware. At a loss for what to try out? We'd like to help you out with our own recommendations of some of our favorite Android games divided by genre (along with a few honorable mentions). Have a blast with these 15 Android games!
It's a wide world of gaming out there, and we're sure to have missed out on a lot of good games . Have a few suggestions for games, or other genres you'd like us to review? Make yourselves heard in the comments section below!

Make IT Happen Organization Design Essentials for IT Executives IT seminar 1/22/2015 9:00 AM - 1/23/2015 6:00 PM Hilton Grand Vacations Suites at the Flamingo Las Vegas, Nevada United States Event Listing Summary: According to studies, about two thirds of IT projects fail in some important way: time and budget overruns, terminations, or all of these. This is a universal problem, whose economic impact is at around three billion dollars, or close to 5 per cent of global GDP. These project failures are actually increasing, because projects are getting bigger and more complex. Large IT projects are 20 times more likely to fail than large projects in other sectors, such as construction.Any change process should integrate the technical, commercial and social aspects, yet IT-projects are often managed merely from the technical and commercial perspective, while the social aspect is not adequately addressed. This is one of the root causes of IT failures. However, with even a modest attention to how IT function and IT projects are organized, governed and managed, improvements in the success rate of IT can be attained.The seminar is well suited for chief information officers, other senior IT managers, and IT program/project managers, who aspire to develop their IT organization and projects. The models, methods and tools suggested in the seminar are research-based and tested in the field.

The grapes for this wine were crushed into small open-top fermentors. Following a 2-day cold soak, the must was inoculated using yeasts from the southern and northern part of the Rhône Valley; each strain subtly adding its own unique aromas and flavors. A small batch hand punch-down process was instrumental during fermentation. To enhance the wine, specially designed barrels for Syrah were used. The barrel regimen called for casks from 15 different coopers, with the majority of wood coming from France.
This wine was aged in barrels specially designed for Syrah, this opaque-purple wine is incredibly complex and enticing with aromatics and flavors of smoky blackberry, white pepper and herbes de Provence, wrapped in a blanket of cassis with hints of anise.
Pair this sumptuous Syrah with marinated, grilled elk tenderloin, duck à l'orange or a hearty cassoulet.

Kell Brook's rescheduled bout with Devon Alexander will now take place on 23 February at Detroit's Joe Louis Arena.
The IBF welterweight fight was originally scheduled for 19 January but has been delayed after Brook injured his ankle in a recent training session.
Promoter Eddie Hearn requested an extra month for his charge to recover completely and ensure the fight was given the best chance to go ahead.
The fight will now be the showpiece in a planned tripleheader which will also see Detroit's Cornelius Bundrage make a third defence of his IBF light middleweight crown against Ishe Smith.
Golden Boy promotions chief executive Richard Schaefer said: "We'll have two world title fights, and it could turn out to be three.
"So if we bring three world title fights, including one with hometown champion 'K9' Bundrage, I think we will do darn well there. Detroit is a great fight town."
Brook wrote on his Twitter feed: "Feb 23 I'm gonna show the World just how Special I am. I'm gonna bring this World title home for Britain."

Listen to the broadcast recording [MP3] where Jennifer Clement, Partner, KPMG Enterprise and Rivers Corbett, founder of ReLISH Gourmet Burgers, share with listeners of FOX FM and Capital FM in Fredericton the importance for entrepreneurs to set aside time to focus "on"' the business rather than spending too much time working "in" the business.
A serial entrepreneur, Rivers Corbett and his business story along with 18 other leading Canadian entrepreneurs is featured in the best selling Canadian book entitled, That'll Never Work which is available at any local book store or online at Indigo or Amazon.
"Any entrepreneur can attest to the fact that starting a business is incredibly challenging, regardless of the economic conditions," explained Jennifer Clement. "Keeping it running and growing is just as tough, if not more so. It takes commitment, conviction, intensity, a positive nature, and, as noted by each of this book's subjects, a great deal of perseverance."
Some owners of mid-sized businesses can get mired in the details. They become so heavily immersed in managing all aspects of their company's day-to-day operations there isn't time for anything else. Clearly, careful management is critical to business success but sometimes it impedes owners from realizing their long-term vision. For some, clarity and perspective comes with a step back and a bit of self-analysis.
More business tips from leading Canadian entrepreneurs can be found in the Canadian bestseller That'll Never Work. Visit www.thatllneverwork.ca.

One heck of a baselayer.
Before you slowly crawl out of your über-warm bed, remember that lying across your chair awaits the Cilla Women's Miss Pant. Cilla gave this cozy sweat-pant style pant skinny calves so you don't have to deal with any bunching issues when it's time to put on your ski or snowboard boots. Constructed from Chitosante fabric, this eco-friendly, quick-drying piece breathes well and wicks moisture away; leaving you comfortable and dry when you're hiking the pipe. The Miss also has natural antibacterial properties so it stays fresh enough for lounging around after a day on the snow.

too baggy and thick
I ordered these in a size Medium, which is my true size.
I don't like that the skinny part on the bottom comes up too high, looks silly if you wear it with only boots.
Definitely a warm wear, but it is not a flattering look at all.
Suppose to be an under wear for ski sports, and it did not fit under my snowboard pants. the material is too heavy, thick and baggy, so I could not use it for snowboarding which was a bummer, because that is why i bought it. 82 bucks and useless :(

So Excited! Reached my First Major Weight Watchers Goal
I'm so excited, I just have to share my news! I joined Weight Watchers Online on May 16th, weighed in today and have reached my first "major" goal of 20 pounds!!
It let me set my own goal weight, so another 31 to go and I'll BE THERE!!! I'm almost half way!!
LOVE the "points system", it really WORKS!!
And with losing weight, eating better AND exercising almost every day I'm keeping my blood sugars mostly within the normal range so I'm extremely HAPPY about that too!!
Taking it "one day at a time" and sticking with the program, but yet I have treats now and then too. Just not as often, and smaller amounts.
Loving the fact that I'm fitting into smaller clothes sizes too. DH is so encouraging, and he's even dropped a few pounds because I'm making him eat better.
I just want to encourage everyone who's trying to lose weight to just stick with it. Take it a day at a time, don't beat yourself up if you stumble. Pick yourself back up and get on with it! It's worth it!!

Lionsgate's launch of "I, Frankenstein" was clinging to life at about $3 million for Friday and appeared heading for a $10 million weekend at the U.S. box office. The fantasy-actioner, set in a dystopian world, has generated dismal reviews with a 3% "fresh" rating on the Rotten Tomatoes site.
"I, Frankenstein" stars Aaron Eckhart in a battle between gargoyles and demons and is directed by Stuart Beattie from his own script, based on the graphic novel by Kevin Grevioux. Lakeshore financed the $65 million project.
Universal's second weekend of cop comedy "Ride Along" is heading for a second-consecutive victory with as much as $20 million for the weekend.
Early Friday's figures for the Ice Cube-Kevin Hart vehicle projected in the $5.5 million to $6 million range in its eighth day of release to push the cume to around $60 million.
Uni's third frame of war drama "Lone Survivor" remained a decent draw with a projected weekend in the $12 million to $14 million range. The Mark Wahlberg starrer performed well in mid-week shows and has gone past $81 million domestically.
Open Road's second fame of "The Nut Job" was projected to generate strong daytime business on Saturday, which could lift it to about $13 million for the weekend.

Pacesetter Awards
This spring, the Wisconsin Advanced Placement Advisory Council (WAPAC) designated over 100 high schools in the state as Pacesetter Schools. These schools were recognized for increasing the number of students taking Advanced Placement (AP) courses, at the same time maintaining excellent AP exam scores.
The Pacesetter Awards are unique to Wisconsin and are designed to recognize the work many high schools are doing to make Advanced Placement courses available to more students. The Wisconsin Advanced Placement Advisory Council includes secondary educators from across the state, as well as university faculty and regional and state educational agency staff.
Regional Reader
Another initiative of the Wisconsin Advanced Placement Advisory Council (WAPAC) is the Regional Reader, written to share information, news, and trends about the AP program with educators, families, and students. The 2014 spring edition of the Reader includes articles on the following topics:
- Pacesetter School Awards
- New AP Computer Science Principles course
- Interviews with school leaders from Mauston High School and Plymouth High School
- 2013 AP Honor Roll for Wisconsin Schools

AP and IB Test Fees for Low-Income Students
Wisconsin public school districts are responsible by law to pay AP and IB exam fees for students that qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. This requirement is found in Wis. Stat. sec. 120.12(22). The full text follows:
Wis. Stat. sec. 120.12(22) Advanced Placement Examinations. Using federal, state, local, or private funds, pay the costs of advanced placement examinations taken by pupils enrolled in the school district who are eligible for free or reduced-price lunches in the federal school lunch program under 42 USC 1758.
For AP exams, the amount is a reduced fee. In 2015, AP exams will cost $91 and the College Board will provide a $29 fee reduction for students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. The school forgoes its $9 rebate for the exam. There is no limit to the number of exams that students can take.
For IB, there is no reduced fee, so the school district is responsible for the full cost.

Best Place to Jump Around Denver 2009 - Jump-Street
8225 Valley Highway
Denver, CO 80221
Wouldn't the world be oh-so-much sweeter if we all lived in one big bouncy castle? While such a paradise only exists in our dreams, we're one step closer to it thanks to Jump-Street, a gigantic family fun center where a trampoline covers almost every surface. Somersault across the floor, pinball off the walls — anything's possible (as YouTube clips of Jump-Street regulars attest). There's even trampoline dodgeball — quite possibly the greatest concept since the ham sandwich.Best Year-Round

Former St Helens and Great Britain scrum-half Sean Long has appeared before magistrates in St Helens charged with assaulting a woman.
Long has already pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The allegations have been made by a former tenant of a property that Long owned and go back to last May, the court heard.
Long, wearing a dark grey suit and dark open-necked shirt, attended the hearing and spoke to confirm his name, date of birth and address.
A three-day trial was set for June 12. Long was granted bail.
Long hung up his boots after an injury-hit couple of seasons with Hull following a glittering career with St Helens.
He began playing rugby union with National League North 2 side Preston Grasshoppers last season while also taking on the role of assistant coach at Salford City Reds.

Well, if you're not stabbing Bruno Mars and transcribing snuff films, what the hell are you doing, Tyler? The Creator explained that his new album (titled Wolf and slated to drop in May 2012) will be "hippie music for people to get high to."

I have to say, this guy is the king of improvisation. He uses samplers to layer himself over himself, combining instruments, sounds and styles to create any kind of jam you can imagine. Nothing throws this guy off - the Blue Angels interrupted the show I saw more than once and he managed to roll with it and put it in the song!
Funk, reggae, bluegrass, more funk - you name it. This guy is the string master.
The Wood Brothers opened the show for yonder and got the crowd movin quite nicely for an acoustic guitar/upright bass duo. The Wood Bros. played several songs from "Ways Not To Lose" which inclueded Atlas, Luckiest Man, Where My Baby Might Be, and One More Day along with a few others. When Yonder came out the crowd was ready to see what they had to offer. Ben opened with Looking Back Over My Shoulder and the crowd just loved it. Yonder invited the Wood bros. back out to jam with em which was a good treat. They pulled out a brand new song named "Cupid shot me twice and missed you all together" Yonder did a wonderful job of preforming "dawns early light" "east nashville easter" and "upon the hill where they do the boogie" All in all everyone who went to the show in Mil town was done justice and I'm willing to bet the show in Mad town will be better
One man. 12 instruments. Any kind of music he feels like.
These guys basically took the jazz-funk thing to a new level. Over the years they've branched out into more and more experimental concepts, but they still can bust a nasty groove.

Limpag: What the CFA could do that the PFF hasn't-A A +A
Fair Play
Friday, January 3, 2014
LAST year, Cebu football raised the bar anew when the local FA held a glitzy general assembly complete with an awards night for the key individuals who helped the sport grow in 2012. In all of my years in the sports scene, it was the first of its kind, not just in football but in other sports as well.
In the national scene, the only awards night I remember was one that marred by controversy, when the obvious choice for the Player of the Year didn't get his award because his father was involved in the oust-the-PFF-president movement.
I hope this year, the Cebu Football Association again hold such awards or even better, institutionalize the Awards Night and make it an annual affair, no matter who is in charge of the CFA. They can award winners for the best age group teams of the year, coach of the year, team of the year, and then of course, the icing on the cake, the Cebu Football Player of the Year.
As always in any awards night, there will be questions of biases but for a Cebu Football Awards night, that can be easily avoided by setting a criteria based on sanctioned CFA tournaments and traditional tournaments. Teams who win titles in the Thirsty Cup, San Roque, Sun.Star Cup, CIS Friendship Cup and other CFA-sanctioned festivals get five points each, while those who win in the Cebu City Olympics and Milo
Little Olympics Visayas Finals get 10 each.
For the Milo Nationals it could be 10, 15 and 20 for teams that finish third, second and first and for the toughest age group tournament in the land, the Palarong Pambansa, it could be 15, 20, 25.
Why should the Palaro get the most points? It's simple, to get to play, you have to win two prior tournaments—City Olympics and Cviraa—and these 11-a-side events are way tougher than the football festivals.
You can also in assign points for Cebu's signature tournament, the Aboitiz Cup, and the other tournaments like Cesafi, U23 and the Smart Club.
The team that has the most points in the age group is the age group team of the year, while the team that has the most points among all is a candidate for the Team of the Year.
As for the Coach and Player of the Year awards, it could come from nominations, and those who are already campaigning in the national scene or have made the national teams should get a ballot too. And who shall vote? Simple, the registered clubs.
This way, those who join in as many CFA-sanctioned events get rewarded as well as those who progress in step-ladder tournaments like the City Olympics and the Milo Little Olympics.
They can also have an award for the Official of the Year, based on the referees' committee recommendation, which should also factor in who gets to be nominated to officiate in PFF-sanctioned tournaments nationwide.
PFF officials have always taken pride in what the local FA has done and usually use the CFA as an example to other FAs as to how things should be done, but with an institutionalized and annual football awards, the CFA would be doing something that even the PFF hasn't done.
In 2012, the CFA hosted the Singapore vs. Philippines match, which was a first, and last year, it hosted the AFC Presidents' Cup, another first. All of those were made possible, not just by the officials, but by the support of the Cebu football community.
An awards night, an expanded version of what the CFA did during their general assembly in 2013, will be a reward, too, for the Cebu football community.
