Guide to Character Profiles
Header Quote
This section should include a quote that was actually said by the character. As much as possible, try to keep the quote relevant to the character's personality. Use
Template:HeadQuote in adding such quotes.
The template shall be formatted as:
...which results to:
|Quote here
–Character, Series
- Typing the following code:
{{HeadQuote|I love this sea!|Wadanohara|''[[Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea]]''}}
- ...results in:
|I love this sea!
–Wadanohara, Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea
Visit other existing character articles to see more header quote examples. (Etihw, Yosafire, and Mogeko)
Character Infobox
- Note: The wiki is now using a newer infobox. Please see the documentation of the new infobox for the full guide.
|Character Information
|Japanese Name
|Romaji Name
|Character Code
|Gray World
|Biological Information
|166cm (≈5'4")
|Professional Status
|Gray World
|God of the Gray World
|Personal Status
The character infobox is a collective summary of basic information about the character. It should be located at the top portion of the article, juste below the header quote. Use
Template:NewCharacter in adding this portion. The infobox contains the following:
- Name –
{{{name}}}(optional; this may not be used as the infobox will automatically get the article name even if
{{{name}}}isn't specified.
- Illustration(s) of the Character –
- Japanese name –
{{{japanese name}}}
- Romaji name –
{{{romaji name}}}
- Character Code –
{{{character code}}}
- Location –
- Status –
- Species –
- Gender –
- Height –
- Weight –
- Affiliation –
- Occupation –
- Relatives –
- Education –
- Note: In most cases, not all parameters have to be used as there are still unknown details about specific characters.
The design of the infobox can also be edited with the following properties.
- Background color –
- Cell colors –
- Text color –
The overall color palette of the infobox should match the color palette of the character.
To give an overview of what the code should look like, here is an organized syntax for it.
{{NewCharacter |backgroundcolor = |cellcolors = |textcolor = |name = |image = |japanese name = |romaji name = |character code = |location = |status = |species = |gender = |height = |weight = |affiliation = |occupation = |relatives = |education = }}
To give an example, here is the code used for the Etihw character infobox:
{{NewCharacter |textcolor = #000000 |backgroundcolor = #F5F5F5 |cellcolors = #A9A9A9 |name = Etihw |image = <tabber>Present =[[File:0142.png|250px]]|-|Past = [[File:War_Etihw.png|250px]]|-|GGT = [[File:Etihw ggt.JPG|250px]]</tabber> |japanese name = エティーウ |romaji name = Etīu |character code = 0142 |location = [[Gray World]] |status = Active |species = God |gender = Agender |height = 166cm (≈5'4") |affiliation = Gray World |occupation = God of the Gray World }}
See the Kcalb, Wadanohara, and Yonaka Kurai character infoboxes for more examples.
This section should contain a very brief description about the character. It may include their species, major appearance, role, relationship to a major character, etc. Try not to have too many sentences in this section.
- Etihw (エティーウ) is one of the major characters in The Gray Garden. They are the god of their world and can be considered the most powerful being there. In the past they fought in a war with their Devil counterpart, Kcalb.
See the captions of Wadanohara, Samekichi, Kcalb, Rbona Cara, and Photon for more examples.
- Not to be confused with the Appearances section, which contains the character's appearances in various Deep-Sea Prisoner games or media.
This section should describe the character's physical appearance, as well as the changes they undergo as the series they're in progresses. This also includes the outfit/s the character has. Always try to specify on what event the character had their appearance change. If not sure, you may add "In the past..." or "In the future..."
- Grora is a relatively short angel with long, grey hair tied in low twintails, and an ahoge; dark grey eyes, though the left one–having been gouged out–is now covered by an eye patch; and a pair of feathered wings. She wears a clip on the right side of her head; a grey cloak over a collared white dress; black stockings; and knee high grey boots. In her character portrait, she carries a watering can. Though, in later works, appears to be missing the item.
- In Garden Gray The, Alela has long, grey hair tied in a low ponytail, and an ahoge. He wears the same eye patch as Grora; a dark grey scarf with diamond prints; a grey, diamond-pattern sweater; a white dress shirt underneath; and dark grey pants and shoes.
See the Appearance sections of Satanick and Wadanoahara for more examples.
This section states the character's personality, as well as the changes their personality goes through as the series they're in progresses. Include the event/s wherein the character had the said personality. The formatting is similar to the Appearance section.
- Kurotsuno is a reserved and serious girl. The most emotion she shows are either of annoyance or rage, with the former mainly to her friends and acquaintances, whilst the latter to her father. She has been called rebellious by other characters, such as: Hanten and Maekami, and prefers to do things alone. She quite obviously loves OCHO chocolate, and is visibly upset when they were sold out, even willing to kill a white bird for Chlomaki since the witch had the last bag in stock and wanted Kurotsuno to do her a favor before she agrees on handing it over. Sullivan stated in chapter 4 of the Obsolete Dream manga that Kurotsuno used to be much nicer, most likely as Olivia.
See the Personality sections of Dolpi and Yosafire for more examples.
This section includes everything about the character in the past, which is moreover like a biography. Try to keep the details in chronological order. If there is no information about the said character's past, type in "Nothing much is known about [character's name]" instead.
- Yonaka's brother, Shinya, seems to have left her and their family when she was around junior high. He seems to have been gone for a few years, since she was a Japanese second year student by the time he came back.
- Uomihime is the daughter of the Sea King and Mikotsuhime's sister. The Sea King chose his daughter, Uomihime, as his heir; this made her sister jealous, jealous enough to wage war for the throne and kingdom. The Great Sorcerer, Meikai, whom was loyal to Uomihime, sacrificed his life to seal away Mikotsuhime and protect the Blue Sea Kingdom.
See the Background sections of Etihw and Kcalb for more examples.
- Not to be confused with the Appearances section, which contains the physical appearance of the character.
This section contains the character's appearances in various games and/or media created by Deep-Sea Prisoner. It is separated into three parts, namely: Major, Minor and Cameo.
- Major – The major appearances part includes series wherein the character has a major role and contribution to the series' plot.
- Minor – The minor appearances part includes series wherein the character has a minor role and contribution to the series' plot.
- Cameo – The cameo appearances part includes series wherein the character is seen, but has not made any contribution to the said series at all.
The format goes like this:
Major (Sub-heading 2, italicized)
=Series – role
Minor (Sub-heading 2, italicized)
=Series – role
Cameo (Sub-heading 2, italicized)
=Series – role
- Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea - Wadanohara is the titular protagonist. In the beginning of the game, Wadanohara returned to the Blue Sea following a trip to the Witch World in inquiry over her amnesia. During the events of the game, Wadanohara comes into conflict with enemies of the kingdom - first, the Totsusa Kingdom, whom invade the kingdom for unknown reasons. The reasons are soon revealed to be false, and Wadanohara and her familiars come into contact with the true enemy: the Sea of Death, a force that orchestrated the conflict between Totsusa Kingdom and the Blue Sea Kingdom. After enough battle, Wadanohara, along with help from her familiars and allies, defeat the Sea of Death, repelling the force successfully. She later grows up to become a wizen old witch.
- Mogeko Castle - Wadanohara appears as a mini-figure on Somewhat Strange Mogeko's shelf.
- General Hashasky's Great Adventure - Wadanohara makes an indirect cameo in the teaser trailer. A Mogeko named "Mogenohara" is seen wearing her witch outfit.
See the Appearances sections of Chlomaki, Etihw, Kurotsuno, and Yosafire for more examples.
This section includes the relationships that the said character has with other characters. This section may be divided into many parts, depending on how many series the character has been in. If the character related to them is not part of any series, create a portion titled Other Characters at the bottom of all series and add the related character to that section.
As much as possible, supplying the relationship between two characters must be in complete sentence. Fragments to be placed in relationships like "friends" and "love interest" are generally not accepted.
Do not type in the relationships in bullet form. Instead, use the format below:
[Series] cast (Heading 2, bold and underlined)
Character (Heading 2, internally linked to their Wiki page)
Descriptive information written in sentences.
The Gray Garden Cast
Kcalb is Etihw's Devil counterpart. They often tease him over any number of subjects and frequently best them at games such as Othello, and often bicker with each other; despite their frequent bantering the two get along very well and deeply care for each other, enough so that other similarly powerful figures like Reficul mention the idiosyncrasy of their relationship in comparison to other Gods and Devils. Observed through some artworks and the Gray Garden, Kcalb and Etihw have a romantic relationship, although they aren't in a definitive relationship. The two share a very close bond with one another, close to the degree that Kcalb has a near-phantom "sense" over the wellbeing of Etihw. Though Etihw is older than him, they depend on him for knowledge on topics such as other-world cruelty and brutality.
In the past, they were great enemies, with Etihw sealing Kcalb underground for centuries for unknown reasons. The two fought in a "Great War" after Kcalb broke free from his prison, each slaughtering the other's subordinates.
See the rest of the Relationships section of Etihw.
This section includes trivia and facts about the character. Keep this in bullet form and try to add references as much as possible!
- In Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea, Lobco is forced to use an ability (Chlomaki tells Wadanohara how to do it, suggesting that any familiar can do it) that consists in licking some of Chlomaki's blood to decimate a huge number of Totsusa Soldiers that surrounded Wadanohara and her familiars.
- As stated in the manga (book), her favourite colour is pink. Her favourite food is anything besides lobster cuisines. Her speciality is the ability to withstand Chlomaki messing around.
See the Trivia sections of Samekichi and Macarona for more examples.
This section contains the image gallery for the character. See how to make a gallery here.
Keep in mind that images from Deep-Sea Prisoner's Ci-en account and images that have been deleted by them are not allowed to be uploaded here.
All pages that have a gallery must have this section. If, however, the character article has a separate gallery page, the Gallery section of the main page should have this instead:
- -> Visit [Character]/Gallery to see the gallery.
Making Gallery sub-pages is the same as making pages. Simply make a new page with the character's name, plus
/Gallery after it. Alternatively, go to the main character page and add
/Gallery?action=edit at the end of the page's URL.
- -> Visit Wadanohara/Gallery to see the gallery.
- Note: You may only create a gallery page if there are 25 or more images in the gallery section.
The separate Gallery page should be in this format (not in bullet form):
Gallery (Heading)
For examples of gallery pages, see Wadanohara/Gallery, Lobco/Gallery, Etihw/Gallery, and Kcalb/Gallery</p>
This section includes dialogue pieces that are notable enough to become quotes. Make sure that the quote is officially made by the character.
They should be in bullet form.
E.g. – Quotes from Etihw
- "Eh? Weren't you all pouty when I trounced you in cards earlier?" (To Kcalb)
- "Yeesh, are you that scared? Can't sleep without a nightlight? ...Or without me, maybe?" (To Kcalb)
- "Hm, is it? I like to watch the sea sometimes myself." (To Dialo)
- "If he comes again, I'll beat him to a pulp." (About Ivlis)
- "We are essentially, creatures who fundamentally can never understand each the other."
See the Quotes sections of Froze and Kcalb for more examples.
Guide to Grammar and Terms
Starting a Paragraph
It is very important to identify the subject in the first sentence of every paragraph first before using pronouns. A common structural issue in the wiki is the usage of pronouns in the first sentences.
This is an article about Shrimp under the Appearance section.
- She has light blonde hair braided into two (tied with two ribbons) that ends above her waist. She wears a school uniform that consists of a light green sleeveless sweater, a white long sleeved school blouse, a green plaid mini skirt, a pair of white loose socks and brown loafers. She also sports a classic Japanese school bag with a shrimp key chain dangling on it.

She also sports a classic Japanese school bag with a shrimp key chain dangling on it.
One of the most basic things in the English rule book is Capitalization. Yet at times, we tend to forget some conditions. So here's a short recap on Capitalization --------> Click Here
Capitalization in Titles and Places
Confusion always arises in adding "The" in titles such as "The Gray Garden" and "The Curse of the Sun" since they are words translated from Japanese and in the Japanese Language, they do not have articles such as a, an and the. That is why some people refer to The Gray Garden as Gray Garden. Therefore, to prevent confusion, use titles that are prescribed by this wiki which can be seen under the series tab in the Navigational panel above!
Places such as the Gray World and Reficul's World are capitalized since they are used as titles of places and not a general term for a place.
Capitalization of Japanese Terms
Always keep in mind that Japanese terms should follow the usual capitalization rules for the English language. If a term is regarded as a nickname or a title, capitalize it.
Using "You"
Never use "You" in an article. Well, a lot of editors and writers commit that mistake a lot. But fear not! In any case, call yourself "the player", "the main protagonist" or any title that correlate to the "you" in the said sentences. Despite these circumstances, "You" can be used in rules to depict an order.
Run-on Sentences, Comma Splices and Faulty Parallelism
Run-on sentences and Comma Splices
At times, we tend to fuse too many ideas together in just one thought that they ruin the clarity of the sentences. Run-on sentences and comma splices are very common errors by writers.
What is a comma splice?
It is the joining of two independent clauses through the use of comma.
- Wadanohara loved the sea so much, she even risked her life for the sake of its salvation.
What is a run-on sentence?
It is the grouping of two independent clauses.
- Wadanohara loved the sea so much she even risked her life for the sake of its salvation.
In order to correct such errors, use the following tips:
- Separate the two sentences using a period (.)
- Use a semicolon
- Use a comma + a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet)
- Use a semicolon + a subordinating conjunction (therefore, thus, however, consequently, furthermore, also, nevertheless etc.) + a comma
Faulty Parallelism
Faulty parallelism is the act of lacking parallel structure making the statement unbalanced. Try to make the words, phrases or clauses have similarity in form.
- Wrong
Yosafire has green hair, eyes that are pink and glasses.
- Right
Yosafire has green hair, pink eyes, and red glasses.
Dangling and Misplaced Modifiers
This error happens rarely but in any case, here's a lil' tutorial on modifiers.
Dangling Modifier
It is a modifier that seems to modify the wrong word or no word at all because the word it should logically modify is practically missing.
- Wrong
As she exited the castle, the cast pearl met Wadanohara's eyes.
- Right
As she exited the castle, Wadanohara saw the cast pearl.
Misplaced Modifier
It is a modifier that modifies the wrong word because it is not in its proper position.
- Wrong
Wadanohara wore the ring in her finger that Syakesan gave her.
- Right
Wadanohara wore the ring that Syakesan gave her in her finger.
Japanese terms and their Romanization
Originally, the characters and series are from a Japanese language. In romanicizing the words, you can add special characters that show correct pronounciation of the syllables.
- Japanese: エティーウ
- Romaji: Etīu
See Yosafire, Kcalb, and Alela Grora for more examples
Naming a Series
In naming a series, always italicize it. This is a way of observing proper grammar.
- Wrong
Yonaka Kurai (倉井 ヨナカ) is a high school girl and the protagonist of Mogeko Castle.
- Right
Yonaka Kurai (倉井 ヨナカ) is a high school girl and the protagonist of Mogeko Castle.
Guide to Links, Categories and References
Internal Links
These are links that direct toward a wiki page of the same wiki.
In source mode, enclose the page name with four brackets, two from each end. ( [[ ]] ).
Below is the syntax of the code:
[[Page Name]]
- Typing in
[[Yosafire]] [[Yonaka Kurai]]results to:
External Links
These are links that direct toward a URL from a different site
In source mode, type in the link, a space, then the text to be displayed. After which, enclose them with two brackets, one from each end. ( [ ] )
Below is the syntax of the code:
[https://www.thatwebsite.com/ Text to display]
- Typing in
[http://funamusea.com Deep-Sea Prisoner's site]results to:
Interwiki Links
These are special external links that direct toward an existing wikia community in the Wikia network.
Below is the syntax of the code:
[[w:c:samplewikia|Wikia Name]]
...where samplewikia in
w:c:samplewikia is the wikia name from the URL (samplewikia.wikia.com).
While copying and pasting the wikia link directly seems to be another way to do this, it's best to avoid this as it consumes more space in the page.
- To create a link to Carnival Rhythm Wikia (carnival-rhythm.wikia.com), type:
[[w:c:carnival-rhythm|Carnival Rhythm Wikia]]
- This results to:
Wikipedia Article Links
These are special external links that direct toward an article from Wikipedia.
Below is the syntax for the code:
[[wikipedia:Article_Name|Text to display]]
- Typing the following:
Cosmea has three [[wikipedia:Cosmos_bipinnatus|Cosmea flowers]] hanging on both
sides of her side fringe.
- results to:
- Cosmea has three Cosmea flowers hanging on both sides of her side fringe.
- While copying and pasting the link and adding the text to display (in this case, it's
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos_bipinnatus Cosmea flowers]) also works, it's wiser not to use this method as it consumes more space in the page.
Splitting Links
Do not split one term into two links
- Hover over the links to see the differences.
Linking Captions
Some gallery images have captions in it as well as some images in the mainspace articles. Editors are free to link characters, places, and such but always remember to practice the art of sufficient links.
Linking Lists
Lists such as Appearances and Trivia are allowed to have multiple links. But never link the profile page of the same character you're editing.
The article is about Yosafire. Hover over "Yosafire" of both sentences to see the difference.
- Right
Yosafire likes s'mores
Overlinking happens when someone links a single page to an article too many times. For example, in the Relationships portion, if Kcalb's name appears in two different characters, there is no need to link both.
Despite that, lists override the Overlinking rule.
If ever an editor wishes to add a new category, that person must consult an administrator first before doing such.
If there is already a category for Animals, there is no need to add an Animals/Others one.
In deleting categories:
- Go to source mode
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page to delete them.
References are added to convince people that the statement is actually a fact or in other words, it is "canon." People, at times, won't assume that a certain thing is correct unless it has concrete evidence. Tad ah! That's why we use references.
At first, adding references is tricky. But once a person learns how to do it, it'll be a really piece of cake!
For example, in adding a reference to this statement:
- "Mogeko stated that the tree with the sword is a reflection of something remaining in the corners of Etihw's mind.",
<ref> link of reference </ref>
after the text or line
It'll lead to this:
- "Mogeko stated that the tree with the sword is a reflection of something remaining in the corners of Etihw's mind."[1]
In addition to this, in order to make a Reference/Citation list for References section, open the page in Source mode and add
<references /> or {{Refer}}
under the said section.
Don't use both of the codes at the same time. You can view the example of a Reference list at the bottom of the page
At times, references can be overlinked. So that's why if ever a certain reference needs to be cited again, use this:
Do not remove the quotation marks in doing so
First format: <ref name="NameHere">Link</ref>
Second format: <ref name="NameHere" />
This will lead to
- First: Her name is a pun.[2]
- Second: It can also be read as "Oounabara". [2]

Today we proudly announce that beta version of ArrayDB analytical database has been released to the general public. In the past few months, Exeray has developed a new cloud based enterprise database software, ArrayDB, in analytical processing of big data. By leveraging our breakthrough technological invention (ArrayIndexing ™) that can speed up indexing of data by orders of magnitude, we will provide customers an exceptionally fast query engine for customers to gain deep insights into data. Our software will be a valuable resource as both an transaction engine and an analytical engine. Our ArrayDB product is clearly superior to all competitors in analytics of big data. Firs time in history, a database that employs revolutionary array-based indexing technology is developed and released. The ArrayDB product package can be downloaded from github repository: http://github.com/exeray/arraydb
Monthly Archives: February 2015
Exeray has released ArrayDB Embedded Database
|ArrayDB Embedded Database is useful for embedded devices such as smart phones or smart meters. In such cases, all you need is a fast, file-based stand-alone data storage engine that can manage your data with high performance. Embedded ArrayDB storage enginer can store data up to 36000 records per second and read the data at 35 millions records per second. Even better, in addition to its high speed, memory consumption is minimal.
Exeray has released new version (V5) of Bigdata Enabler
Exeray has released version 5 of BigData Enabler. This new version has changed the method of low level data storage. It has been redesigned and developed from scratch and uses pure array-based indexing technology. Most new containers maintain order and hash lookup of keys, so they are extremely fast in point search and ordered range search.
On top of the existing data containers, new classes such as AbaxCounter and AbaxGraph are added to the family. The AbaxCounter container collects data and maintains ordered counts of each key in real-time. The AbaxGraph container dynamically manages directed graph as well as undirected graph. One can easily add nodes, edges to a graph. Also methods are provided to detect adjacency relationship, retrieve neighor list, and find minimum spanning tree in a graph.
ArrayDB uses less memory and is almost as fast as memcached
We have performed benchmark test of ArrayDB and memcached. The memcached server is started with the following settings:
memcached -d -p 11211 -u memcached -m 512 -c 1024 -P /var/run/memcached/memcached.pid
The following C listing is the client program to insert and lookup 3000000 random strings in memcached:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <libmemcached/memcached.h>
char *randomString( int size );
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
int i;
int max = 100;
if ( argc > 1 ) {
max = atoi( argv[1] );
memcached_server_st *servers = NULL;
memcached_st *memc;
memcached_return rc;
char *key;
char *value;
size_t vlen;
uint32_t flags;
memcached_return_t err;
memcached_server_st *memcached_servers_parse (server_strings);
memc= memcached_create(NULL);
servers= memcached_server_list_append(servers, "localhost", 11211, &rc);
rc= memcached_server_push(memc, servers);
if (rc == MEMCACHED_SUCCESS) {
printf("Added server successfully\n");
} else {
printf("Couldn't add server: %s\n",memcached_strerror(memc, rc));
time_t t1 = time(NULL);
for ( i = 0; i < max; ++i ) {
key = randomString( 16 );
value = randomString( 16 );
rc= memcached_set(memc, key, 16, value, 16, (time_t)0, (uint32_t)0);
if (rc != MEMCACHED_SUCCESS) {
fprintf(stderr,"Couldn't store key: %s\n",memcached_strerror(memc, rc));
time_t t2 = time(NULL);
printf("Insert %d strings took %d seconds\n", max, t2-t1 );
t1 = time(NULL);
char *res;
for ( i = 0; i < max; ++i ) {
key = randomString( 16 );
value = randomString( 16 );
res = memcached_get( memc, key, 16, &vlen, &flags, &err );
if ( res ) {
free( res );
} else {
printf("error in memcached_get NULL\n");
t2 = time(NULL);
printf("Lookup %d strings took %d seconds\n", max, t2-t1 );
return 0;
char *randomString( int size )
int i, j;
static char cset[] = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"; // 62 total
char *mem = (char*)malloc(size+1);
for ( i = 0; i< size; i++) {
j = rand() % 62;
mem[i] = cset[j];
mem[i] = ";
return mem;
To insert and query data in ArrayDB, the following commands are executed:
$ rbench -r "3000000:0:0" -k 0 (create table and insert data)
$ rbench -r "0:0:3000000" (read data)
Insert Time | Lookup Time | Memory
Memcached | 359 sec | 317 sec | 370 MB
ArrayDB | 486 sec | 440 sec | 46 MB
The benchmark shows that ArrayDB uses much less memory but achieves similar speed to memcached. ArrayDB could be very valuable in cloud computing environment where memory resource is expensive.

Endosulfan.... The Ban...and a Sham.....
hile, the threats of a nuclear fall-out, borne out of a tragedy that happened in the Fakushima Nuke Plant in Japan, started a debate about the positives and negatives of nuclear energy, the media completely ignored the protests and the cries that were being carried out (infact, for the last 10 to 15 years) in Northern Kerala as well as Southern Karnataka to ban the Pesticide Endosulfan.
Perhaps, after the killer fields of Bhatinda, it's now the turn of Kasargod and Northern Karnataka to prove to the rest of India that the so-called Green Revolution was after all, not a success as was being made out, but in fact, a tragedy that killed people on one side and and gave profits to the pesticide lobby on the other.
Endosulfan is a "Persistent Organic Pollutant" of P.O.P, which can easily spread through soil, air and water. It is banned in more than 63 countries, including the European Union,
Australia and New Zealand, and other Asian and West African nations, and being phased out in the United States, Brazil and . In spite of this, the same is being widely used in the Cashew Plantations in Kerala and Karnataka as also in Andhra Pradesh and Canada West Bengal. Apart from Cashew Plantations, Endosulfan is extensively used in the farming of other vegetables and crops like Tomatoes, Tea, Coffee, and some varieties of Rice cultivated in Andhra. One of the main reasons for its continued use is the fact that Endosulfan is pretty cheap and it impacts 's economic interests as it is one of the world's largest exporter and manufacturer. India
Endosulfan has been proved to be the main cause for the majority of Children who are born with Autism and several abnormalities. Endosulfan exposure has also lead to delays in sexual maturity among boys, and several physical abnormalities. Endosulfan was the only pesticide applied to cashew plantations in
Northern Kerala villages for 20 years and had contaminated the village environment.
As a fallout of the tragedy that is happening in Kasargod, Women refuse to get pregnant and resort to abortion. Statistics support this, as Kasargod is one district where abortions are on a high. Married women are either afraid to get pregnant or they simply don't get, because of the high number of infertility cases. To complicate the social issues further, even men from other villages refuse to marry women from Kasargod for they think it is quite risky to marry a girl from this village.
Talking about statistics, about a 1000 people have already died in the past ten years and another 5000 odd people are still living with abnormalities and chronic illnesses. Most of the babies borne in this district of Kerala have been bed-ridden, and the parents spent their entire hard earned money nursing them. The complexity of the problem is furthered with an assumption that Endosulfan affects people who have a protein deficient diet. True, in a poor country like
, it affects the poor and the malnourished badly. Perhaps this is the main reason why no such cases have been reported as their main dietary habits include Fish and Egg. India
Inspite of all these happenings and a protest cry from the Left Government in Kerala to ban the Pesticide, the Government of India has been advocating the use of the same pesticide and is against the Ban put forward by the European Union. They cite the cost effectiveness of the Pesticide and warn of food inflation, if at all Endosulfan is banned and alternatives are used. Perhaps, as has happened with all other sectors, the Pesticide lobby has hijacked the Govt of India as well.
The utter disregard to this tragedy is evident with the fact the Union Government has not even acknowledged this incident as a disaster that is happening. It may be ironical that the National Disaster Management Authority, which is a body constituted by the Central Government, conducts seminars and workshops on Nuclear Safety and Flood Rehabilitation doest not even cite it as a disaster. The pollution of the waters and the air of a certain place in the country ought to be a disaster, and should be on an equal footing as a nuclear radiation fallout, but somehow, the thinking in the corridors of power have been baffling. In the age of the RTI, the NDMA has even gone to the extent of saying that the mandate of the NDMA is only to look into "Natural Disasters" and not "Man-Made" ones.
The Government of India, as also, the people who are against a ban on Endosulfan, argues that there are no proof that links the abnormalities to the use of Endosulfan. They further argue that a cheaper alternative to Endosulfan is not available, and any alternate pesticide would push the vegetable prices atleast three times higher. Endosulfan industry is a 100 million industry of which,

Wendy and the Wallpaper Cat
by Jason Hook
illustrations by Ilaria Demonti
A beautifully illustrated and original bedtime story inspired by the classic designs of Walter Crane.
Wendy can't sleep, no matter what she tries. She counts sheep, reads books and even turns somersaults—but nothing works. Eventually Wendy's parents take her on holiday to stay at her grandfather's house, and he invites Wendy to stay in whichever room is her favourite. Wendy is amazed to discover interiors covered in wallpapers that come to life, and their sights, sounds and smells fill her head with images and ideas. As she wanders happily from room to room, she finally finds a way to drift off to sleep.
Jason Hook is a writer and commissioning editor of children's fiction and picture books. He conceived and commissioned the million-selling 30-Second Theories series of popular reference titles with Ivy Press.
"It truly is beautifully illustrated and a completely original bedtime story."
"This is a fun, lightly interactive book with fabulous illustrations."
The Hungry Bookshelf
"Illustrator Ilaria Demonti masterfully creates softly drawn characters that blend elegantly into their surroundings. The book is made even more special by the authenticity of the designs of Walter Crane, a popular artist who was one of the pioneers of decorative wallpaper for children."

The Netherlands has expressed their eagerness to support Bangladesh in land reclamation and river dredging for mitigating long-term flood risks, reports UNB.
This was conveyed to Bangladesh Ambassador to the Netherlands Sheikh Mohammed Belal during his meeting with the Dutch Minister for Infrastructure and the Environment Melanie Schultz in The Hague on Tuesday.
During the meeting, both Dutch Minister and Bangladesh Ambassador expressed satisfaction at the expanding and fast growing bilateral relations between the two countries, according to a message UNB received from The Hague on Wednesday.
They especially mentioned the momentum in the relations following the official visit of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to the Netherlands in November 2015 and the twin-ministerial visit to Bangladesh in June 2015 by Dutch Minister for Infrastructure and the Environment Melanie Schultz and Minister for Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation Lilianne Ploumen.
Referring to the signing of three important instruments between the two sides in June 2015 on resilient and sustainable delta management for a prosperous Bangladesh, collaboration in land reclamation and land accretion in Bangladesh, and partnership on knowledge and innovation for sustainable development, the Dutch Minister assured Bangladesh Ambassador of taking measures for early implementation of the instruments specially on land reclamation and accretion.
Both sides agreed to initiate commencing pilot or demonstration projects in this regard, specifically on land reclamation in and around Chittagong Port.
Schultz also assured of looking into the Bangladesh's proposals for estuary development and potential cross dam projects for land reclamation in the coastal zone of Bangladesh.
Thanking the Dutch Minister for the Netherlands' support to Bangladesh in the water sector since 1960s, the Bangladesh envoy urged him to reinvigorate their support in implementing Bangladesh Delta Plan 2100 as well.
Belal also sought Dutch support under the broader framework of Bangladesh Delta Plan 2100 for mitigating long-term flood risks through basin-wise water management, river-dredging, capacity building of Bangladesh River Research Institute and knowledge development through education and training.
The Dutch Minister assured him of continuing their support in implementing Bangladesh Delta Plan 2100 to better manage water resources of Bangladesh and mitigate the adverse impacts of climate change.
He also suggested that countries of their region can learn from the experience of Europe how the upper and lower riparian European countries have mitigated flood risks in Europe through close cooperation.

Personal Injury and Treatment Risks
Salons and barber shops are all about making people feel good about themselves. But the array of chemicals, products, trimmers, dryers, and other machines employed in the process creates an environment where accidents and injuries can happen at any moment. If your business offers services beyond just hairstyling, such as manicures, pedicures, and makeovers, your liability increases. Accidents that result in injuries—particularly those that could have been prevented with better controls—often result in lawsuits.
Major and minor injuries to both clients and employees can be caused by:
- Slippery floors due to product spills and hair clippings
- Burns from dryers and curling irons
- Cuts from razors
- Repeated exposure to hair products and coloring agents.
Apart from injuries caused by typical slips and falls, you also face risks tied to the professional services you're providing. If a chemical gets into a client's eyes or mouth, or they suffer an allergic reaction to a product you've applied, you could get sued. Because the nature of your business requires physical touching, you also have to guard against the perception of any inappropriate physical contact with clients.
Mitigation Measures
- Train your employees to keep your salon or barber shop comfortable, clean and safe. Regularly sweep up hair clippings, mop up any product spills immediately to limit the chance of slips and falls and clean and disinfect all equipment that comes in direct contact with customers.
- Know the chemicals and ingredients in your product inventory, and understand how these chemicals may react with one another, particularly if they spill and get mixed together.
- If an accident happens and someone gets hurt, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires salon and barber shop owners to document injuries to clients and employees, and to keep detailed records if the accident results in the victim being unable to work.
- You must comply with OSHA's formaldehyde and hazard communication standards if you use products containing this chemical.
- Carry sufficient insurance. At a minimum, consider a Business Owner's Policy which combines what are arguably two of the most critical business insurance coverages: business property and business liability. You may want to consider adding professional liability insurance, which protects you against claims related to your professional services, including mistakes or negligence. Your state may require you to carry Worker's Compensation insurance for your full- and part-time employees.

Rochdale arrived for their second visit of the season at Grove Park with a much changed side after last week's promising performance against Blackburn points were needed against the experienced Manchester team who had proved too strong for them in the recent cup tie here.
Rochdale's defence was tested from the start with strong runs from Brian Ndlovu and Jake Stewart only being stopped by determined tackling and a good relieving kick from Olllie Coldman to halfway , then it was all Dale with only the final pass letting them down. Manchester were content to clear with the boot on most attacks with their fly half McCartney looking to get behind Dale's defence with high kicks that tested the full back Coldman. From one of these raids they broke through and only a desperate early tackle from Tom Helliwell stopped the rampaging Stewart but the referee decided he was tackled without the ball and penalised the visitors yellow carding the Rochdale 2nd row. From the penalty and line out the ball was again punted over the rush defence and the Manchester winger Doug Day raced in for a try which was not converted 5-0. Travis Townsend was having a great game at scrum half for Dale and made several breaks from the base of the scrum which the home side struggled to stop. It was Manchester who scored next after 15 mins the Dale defence opened up as Ndlovu again powered through to score under the posts the conversion went over 12-0. Good Dale pressure led to Blair Henry being stopped just short of the line. Plenty of Dale possession saw a penalty awarded in front of the posts and Coldman made no mistake 12-3 with 20 mins. gone. Great runs by both Townsend and Josh Schofield kept the home defence busy with Coldman trying the same tactic as the home side, a high kick was taken by Blair Henry coming inside from his wing but he was hit high and late by the Manchester No. 8 Ndlovu although Henry was out cold for several minutes the ref decided not penalise the defender to the amazement of the travelling supporters. After a 5 minute delay the game resumed with Blair off the field. With no backs replacement available it fell to Captain Tom Callaghan to come off the bench and go into the pack a move which strengthen the Dale defence. Schofield was again in action, too quick for most of the Manchester side, only a cynical tackle by the No. 8 stopped him, again with no action taken by the referee. Manchester were back on the attack but a loose pass in their own half led to Josh Schofield getting some justice as he intercepted brilliantly to score from 30 metres Coldman provided the extra points 12-10 with minutes to go to half time.
Following another great run by Townsend the ball was dropped and from the resulting scrum Manchester got the ball to their best player winger Day who scored by the posts despite desperate Dale defence the try was converted to leave the half time score 19-10 and the game wide open.
The 2nd half started with Dale pressing with all the lads playing with a determined look about them Manchester were again penalized for a man tackled in the air at a Dale line out no card again and then another penalty for offside the ref warning the home side captain about repeated infringements without taking sanction with the card.
After another Schofield break, the ball was lost on half way Manchester made the most of their chance it was the ever present Day who scored and converted his own 2nd try 26-10.
5mins later it was the big No.8 who battered his way through the Dale defence to score under the posts 33-10 with 55 mins gone. The free kick count against the home side continued to grow with a penalty for feeding at the scrum a rare event these days followed by a deliberate obstruction on half way again no card, but Dale carried on and finally despite being down to 14 men when Townsend was hurt in a tackle they got a well deserved 2nd try when Coldman fed Willetts to score under the posts 33-17 . Manchester were now throwing the ball around looking for the gaps when a loose pass on half way fell to Schofield who took the ball 30 metres to score a great 3rd try for the visitors converted by Coldman 33-24 game on !
From the re-start Dale had the ball in their own 22 when a sloppy pass led to an almost identical interception try for the home side converted by Day the score with 10 mins to go was 40-24.
Despite their best efforts and being down to 13 men, Dale hung on until finally the Manchester scrum half Ding sneaked in to score in the corner which well converted from the touchline 47-24.Day the winger had a big say in the next try as he broke from a tackle and fed the big No. 8 Ndlovu for his second try 54-24 with minutes to go. The Manchester 8 rounded off his day by scoring in the final minute and converting to make the final score 61-24. Dale were just short of their 4th try and a bonus point when the ref blew the final whistle in a great pulsating match in which the much depleted Dale side battled to the end.
Next Saturday Dale entertain newly promoted Carlisle at Moorgate Avenue hoping for a full side and better luck.

Devil's Advocate is a pub just off the Royal Mile in Edinburgh within a great redevelopment which includes offices, the pub and the Old Town Chambers – a brilliant place to stay if you are visiting the city and looking for a stylish five star option.
While largely a whisky bar and pub, the Devil's Advocate is also a good place to eat. It has a fantastic, loft-like feel to it and some of the tables are on a stunning industrial-style mezzanine with bare stone walls, which is probably why. Like all good menus, the one at Devil's Advocate is not overly extensive but includes a good mixture of choices such as chargrilled butternut squash, some tasty looking lamb and a very good quality burger. The good news is that the chips are definitely gluten free! They come in a little square bucket and are ideal for sharing – a good sign.
The other good news is that the staff are knowledgeable and relaxed about gluten free diners and that pretty much the whole menu is gluten free once any elements of bread are removed. There was no need for a separate menu and I felt very confident that the kitchen and service were going to get it right.
As it was lunch I went for the lighter option of Scrabster cod fillet with peas braised French style, baby onions, lettuce and smoked bacon. To be sociable, I also ordered chips to share. The cod was beautifully cooked and fell apart as I cut it. It had a crispy skin, which I always love, and the peas and bacon mix beneath the fish brought just the right level of saltiness.
A quick squint at my fellow diners' meals tells me you could order the burger with no bun and still get a good hearty meal: it was packed with gherkins and salad, plus the chips. The bayleaf, lemon and garlic marinated lamb rump looked pink and tender, coming with a par-boiled egg and beans. This would also have been a good option.
The Devil's Advocate is a relaxed and friendly place, with plenty of choices for gluten free and it is hard to fault it. There was no gluten free bread available as such, but as it was lunchtime for me this is not an issue. Though it might have been nice for soaking up the delicious cod sauce!
For the drinker, this is a great place to go. There is an extensive whisky menu, some stunning looking cocktails and a terrific wine list. I will soon be planning an evening visit to try these out as this place could definitely become a favourite haunt.

Mohanlal swept the Kerala Box Office off its feat with Priyadarshan directorial Oppam, a revenge thriller of a visually-impaired person. The film, directed by Priyadarshan and written by Govind Vijayan, is bankrolled by Mohanlal's friend Antony Perumbavoor under the banner of Aashirvad Cinemas. The production house also backed the hugely-successful Drishyam.
Oppam was released on the screens a year ago on 8 September 2016 on the auspicious occasion of Onam and turned out to be one of the best Malayalam thrillers to come out in recent times.
Here are a few interesting facts about the Mohanlal - Priyadarshan blockbuster:
1) Oppam was the 40th association of Mohanlal and Priyadarshan duo, out of which most of the movies have been huge hits at the Box Office. In fact most of their blockbusters were remade in Bollywood with top Bollywood stars including Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan and Akshaye Khanna. Bollywood films like Garam Masala, Bhagam Bhaag, Kyonki, Khatta Meetha were the remakes of Mohanlal - Priyadarshan blockbusters.
2) Oppam is the third highest grosser of Malayalam film history. At the Kerala Box Office, the film had minted Rs. 44 crore to do so. However, the worldwide collections of Oppam is nearly 77 crore and is only next to Pulimurugan.
3) Oppam was Lalettan's first Malayalam release of 2016 and is the second blockbuster of the superstar among the 5 straight blockbusters with in 5 months. His Telugu film Janatha Garage, which had released one week before Oppam and the other 3 Mohanlal releases post Oppam, Pulimurugan, Manyam Puli and Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol too bagged the blockbuster status.
4) Oppam is touted to be the biggest Onam blockbuster in the history of Malayalam cinema. Generally, Onam releases will slow down after the Onam holiday period, but in the case of Oppam, it ran over exceptionally well in its entire theatrical run. The first one-month theatrical run has worked wonders for the makers to become the biggest Onam blockbuster ever. Oppam has ran over more than 150 days as well at the Kerala Box Office.
5) Oppam is the fifth Malayalam film to cross the coveted Rs. 40 crore mark in Kerala. Interestingly, out of the 5 biggest Malayalam grossers, Mohanlal tops the first three spots with Pulimurugan, Drishyam and Oppam. He is also the only Indian actor to have top three industry hits.
6) Oppam marks the 21st collaboration between Mohanlal and Antony Perumbavoor. The actor-producer duo earlier delivered many blockbuster films including Narasimham, Ravanaprabhu, Naran, Spirit and Drishyam. Oppam also starred Antony Perumbavoor in a cameo role.
7) While Bollywood films struggle to complete 50 theatrical days across the cinemas of Mumbai, Oppam had a dream 12-week run in the cinemas across Mumbai. The thriller, which had released with English subtitles in non-Kerala states was a super hit at Mumbai and Chennai as well.
8) The demand for Oppam is so huge that the Telugu dubbed version of the film hit the screens across the Telugu states. The film, titled Kanupapa, which hit the screens on 3 February 2017 too went on to become a Box Office success as well.
9) Oppam marked the debut of four music composers, Jim Jacob, Eldhose, Biby and Justine of the music band, 4 Musics. The songs from the album, Chinnamma Adi, and Minungum Minnaminunge turned out to be top two chartbusters of 2016.
10) Oppam also marks the Malayalam cinema comeback of popular actress Vimala Raman after a gap of eight years. The actress was last seen in the 2008 film College Kumaran, which also starred Mohanlal. The film also marked the Malayalam debut of Bollywood actress Devshi Khanduri.
Oppam also starred Nedumudi Venu, Samuthirakani, Anusree, Kalabhavan Shajon, Chemban Vinod Jose, Baby Meenakshi and Sona Heiden.

Salmon Recipes: Seared Salmon with Avocado and Cucumber Salad
- 4 salmon fillets, 5 ounces each
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon dill, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
I'd like to suggest one of the tastiest salmon recipes: seared salmon over avocado and cucumber salad. Salmon has been a favorite seafood for a long time and there are lots of different recipes, though one of the most favorite combinations is salmon over avocado.
Cook Time
Seared Salmon
- Combine dill, granulated garlic, paprika, salt and pepper, and set aside.
- Brush all sides of salmon with lemon juice
- Dredge salmon through seasoning mixture, coating all sides.
- In a pre-heated non-stick pan, sear the salmon on both sides in olive oil until golden brown.
- Transfer to a 350 F oven for approximately 10 minutes to finish cooking.
- Portion immediately over salad.
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon dill, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 lemons, juiced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 8 ounces mixed lettuce (green and red)
- 3 avocados, ½ inch dice
- 1 English cucumber, thinly sliced half moons
- ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
- Salt
- Pepper
Avocado and Cucumber Salad
- Combine garlic, dill, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, salt and pepper
- Toss dressing gently with avocado, cucumber and red onion
- Serve with salmon and mixed greens.
Beautifully laid out recipe hub! This looks delicious.
I am adding this to my Recipe Index for HubPages.
I was drawn to this recipe because I love both salmon and avocado's. I can't wait to make it! Voted Up and useful!
For me, salmon and salad are THE perfect lunch combo: delicious, healthy, quick and easy. I wish I could have it more often but salmon in Mexico is quite an expensive fish, as it is always imported.

- Abstract:
- Based on a modified version of standard chips for fast differential scanning calorimetry, DSC of liquid samples has been performed at temperature scan rates of up to 1000 °C/s. This paper describes experimental results with the protein lysozyme, bovine serum, and olive oil. The heating and cooling rate of the sensor is measured for temperature scan rates of up to 1300 °C/s with water and 2-butanol, in the temperature range of −90 °C/s to +130 °C/s. The lysozyme is measured at temperature scan rates varying from 10 °C/s to 400 °C/s and in concentrations between 0.1% and 10% protein by weight. The bovine serum measurements show two main peaks, in good agreement with standard DSC measurements. Olive oil has been measured, with good agreement for the cooling curve and qualitative agreement for the heater curve, compared to DSC measurements.

10 Warnings to Heed When Consolidating Credit Card Debt
Don't let bad choices during credit card consolidation put your repayment plans at risk
Consolidating credit card debt allows you to develop an effective repayment strategy so you can get out of debt faster. At the same time, you minimize interest charges, which reduces your total cost and can lower your monthly payments. But debt consolidation is not a silver bullet. It won't work in every situation and if it's used incorrectly, it can actually make a bad situation worse.
So, if you're considering using consolidation to find debt relief, make sure you're using it correctly in the right circumstances. Otherwise, you could be looking for a new solution sooner than you'd like. Use the ten points below to give yourself the best opportunity for success.
Warning No.1: Stop making new charges
The biggest mistake people make after consolidating credit card debt is that they don't stop making new credit card charges. If you're trying to pay off debt, you need to focus on elimination. New charges just set you farther back from your goal – it's like two steps forward, one step back.
The right way: Once you consolidate, you need to set up a household budget. The goal is to cover all your bills and necessary expenses with income. This helps you avoid relying on your credit cards to cover everyday needs.
Warning No. 2: Don't use DIY solutions if you don't have good credit
In order for consolidation to be effective, you need to reduce or eliminate interest charges applied to your debt. Otherwise, you don't generate the cost savings you need for this to be an effective way out of debt. So, at minimum, you need good credit score to qualify for do-it-yourself debt consolidation at the right interest rate.
If you don't have good credit and you try to go DIY, the rate may be too high to provide the benefit you need. Interest charges will eat up every payment you make, making it impossible to eliminate debt quickly or effectively.
The right way: Your goal when consolidating debt should always be to get the interest rate as close as possible to zero. Ideally, you want a rate that's 5% or less. At most, you need to the rate to be less than 10% in order for your solution to be effective.
Warning No. 3: Don't convert unsecured debt to secured debt
Most credit cards are unsecured debt. That means that there's no collateral in place to protect the creditor in case you default. That's different from secured debt, like a mortgage which uses your home as collateral. In this case, if you default on your mortgage, the lender will take your home and sell it to recoup their losses.
Some people think home equity loans are a good way to consolidate credit card debt. However, this effectively converts unsecured debt into secured. Now, if you fall behind, you can be at risk of foreclosure.
The right way: Keep unsecured debt unsecured. There are plenty of ways to consolidate that don't tap your home's equity. It's simply not worth it to use a second mortgage solely for the purpose of paying off your credit cards.
Warning No. 4: Be aware of fees and costs to consolidate
In most cases, you should expect some kind of cost associated with consolidating your debt. Some fees are normal. However, excessive consolidation costs only make it harder to reach zero. So, while you should expect some cost, you should avoid high fees when possible.
For example, let's say you want to use a credit card balance transfer to consolidate. Almost any balance transfer credit card you choose will have a fee that's applied for each balance transferred. Some have a $3 fee per transfer, while others are 3% of the balance you move. That's a big difference. If you transfer $25,000, then the 3% card will increase the cost of debt elimination by $750.
The right way: You should expect some fees, but avoid excessive fees when you consolidate. You don't want to make your journey out of debt any steeper than it has to be. It's worth noting that a debt management program has fees, but they get set by state regulation. They also get rolled into your program payments, so you don't actually incur an extra bill.
Warning No. 5: Don't be afraid to ask for help
Let's be honest, most people would prefer to solve their own debt problems without outside help. It's not easy to let someone into your financial world, especially if things aren't exactly going well. But using a do-it-yourself solution from a weak financial position is a recipe for disaster.
The right way: If you have more than $50,000 or a bad credit score, consolidating on your own will be extremely tough. You will usually be better off asking for help.
Warning No. 6: Don't lose steam halfway through
When people first consolidate, they're excited that they finally have a solution to eliminate their debt. So, they're willing to do whatever it takes to reach zero. However, as time passes, it's easy to get tired of sticking to budget and cutting back. As time passes, you slip back into bad spending habits and can start making new charges again.
With debt management program clients, we usually see this drop-off around the six-month mark. Keep in mind that enrollment in a debt management program is completely voluntary. However, if you drop out your creditors are likely to restore your original interest rates and can even reapply penalties.
The right way: First, choose a solution that gets you out of debt as quickly as possible. Anything longer than 60 payments (5 years) is generally too long to keep up with effectively. And always remember, while debt elimination can be tedious, it's worth it in the end!
Warning No. 7: Never confuse consolidation with settlement
Don't confused commercials that offer to "settle your debt for pennies on the dollar" with credit card consolidation. Consolidating credit cards – even with a debt management program – is not the same thing as a debt settlement program.
Debt consolidation always pays back everything you borrowed, to help minimize credit damage. By contrast, each debt you settle creates a negative remark on your credit that remains for seven years after discharge.
The right way: Only consider settlement once you've exhausted all other options. It should only be used for debts that are already in collections. And if you're worried about damaging your credit, just don't do it!
Warning No. 8: Be cautious with new financing
If you consolidate on your own, then you can seek any type of new financing that you need. If you consolidate through a debt management program, you can qualify for loans like a mortgage or auto loan; however, you can't apply for new credit cards.
In any case, be very careful with any new financing you take out while you repay consolidated credit card debt. Consolidation often makes it easier to qualify, because it fixes your credit utilization ratio and helps build positive credit history. Those are the two biggest factors used to calculate your credit score.
The right way: Even though you can qualify for a loan, it doesn't mean that you should apply. Always consider your debt-to-income ratio carefully. If you're close to your borrowing limit, a new loan could make it tough to keep up with your bills. Ideally, you want your debt-to-income ratio to be 36% or less to make it easy to maintain stability.
Warning No. 9: Check your credit once you eliminate the debt in-full
Once you complete a plan to repay your debt, you should also complete a thorough review of your credit report. Creditor should automatically inform the credit bureaus that your account is paid or current. However, mistakes and errors happen frequently, particularly following a period of financial hardship. That means it's up to you to make sure your credit report is up to date and that old errors aren't hanging around.
The right way: Go to annualcreditreport.com to download your credit reports for free. Then check them for the following errors:
- Make sure account information has been updated to reflect your zero balances.
- If you go through a debt management program, make sure the credit history on each account shows that you made your payments on time.
- Any paid collections accounts should show up as closed; if you negotiated with the collection agency to remove the account in return for payment, make sure it's gone.
- All your account statuses should be current.
If you find any mistakes, take steps to dispute them.
Warning No. 10: Learn from your mistakes
The last thing you want after all this work is to end up right back in the same situation. So, figure out how to ended up with so much debt and then take steps to adjust your financial habits. That way, once you get out of debt, you can stay that way.
- Set up your budget
- Establish an emergency savings fund to cover unexpected expenses
- Never spend more than 10% of your income on credit card debt payments.
Of course, even the best laid plans can get derailed, particularly after a few years. The good news is that if you end up in the same situation, you can always consolidate again.

TEN is planning a brand refresh, including updated corporate logo and "better defined digital channels" according to reports today.
The Australian Financial Review reports the new logo is expected to be a "significant" refresh rather than a total makeover and "new enough without throwing away the past."
ONE and ELEVEN are expected to have new names "with closer linkage to the main TEN brand."
TEN is also expected to shift back to its "network for under 50s" with TEN All Access, a localised version of streaming site CBS All Access, to be launched later in 2018. The latter was one of the key interests the US giant had behind its acquisition of the network -it isn't yet clear how it affects tenplay.
The announcements are expects at its annual Upfronts on October 31.

M&A: Why do Mergers & Acquisitions fail?
Merger and acquisition activity is really picking up, especially in technology where many of the large tech companies have plenty of cash and are finding themselves losing market share to smaller more nimble competitors.
But while M&A is in the headlines a lot recently, for every two transactions that close, there's another transaction that doesn't (see chart below). That's a surprisingly high failure rate and to be honest this could be a tad conservative - many transactions fail in the very early stages and are probably not counted in the statistics below. Our gut tells us the failure rate is more likely to be closer to 50% when including early stage conversations that don't go anywhere.
To understand how to avoid a busted deal, it's important to understand why so many M&A transactions fail. The chart below represents the results of a survey of investment bankers conducted by Pepperdine University in its annual Private Capital Markets Project report. Pepperdine surveyed 104 investment bankers and came up with the following statistics on the reasons M&A transactions don't proceed:
While there are a multitude of reasons that transactions don't go through, its interesting to see that nearly 2/3 of transactions fail due to valuation gap or unreasonable seller / buyer demands. Navigating unreasonable seller / buyer demands should be easy enough - as long as you have good financial advisors that can help guide you through market terms and legal representation to make sure you don't get caught up on papering the deal.
Valuation gap is clearly a little more difficult to navigate and takes some finesse. To understand best how to navigate these differences in expectations, its interesting to look at how large the gap is. The chart below shows that 95% of the time the gap was larger than 10%, with 68% between 11-30% and 27% being greater than 30%.
Those are some pretty large gaps in value and leads us to ask ourselves how can buyer and seller expectations be so different? The issue is the dance around value normally is towards the end of a process so seller and buyer expectations aren't usually explicit until a lot of time has already been spent on getting a transaction towards the finish line.
So what can companies do to alleviate this problem? We believe there's a number of steps that clients can take to reduce the likelihood of discussions breaking down over value. In particular:
- Figure out likely value upfront - Work with an advisor to get a good sense of value before starting a process. A good banker will do this work for you for free before being signed up and will be able to support the estimate of value with good data from recent M&A transactions and valuations of publicly traded peers.
- Honest feedback about the marketability of the company - Ask your advisor upfront about expected issues with the marketing of the story and how they anticipate overcoming them. Push them hard for honest feedback about the challenges and what issues could impact perceived value.
- Make sure you hit the right buyer base - Getting to the right buyers is critical to maximizing value. Certain buyers will see value that others don't - for example the ability for their sales channel to push your product and increase sales or tax attributes that could increase future combined cashflows. The buyer reach out process should be thoughtful in this regard and really focus on why each of the prospective counter-parties are being contacted.
By hiring an experienced advisor, we believe you can navigate these issues and avoid the problem early on.

There is nothing like a strong winter spell (at least in my part of the world) to make layering everyone's fashion statement. After loosing gloves and hats, without a moment to spare, a lofty, very 70s red wool boucle, was quickly knit into a fluffy hat, ... and that delicious red color, meant it was time to wear the old patched (it's in my book!) ski sweater, that my Mom had knit so very long ago, layer it over a couple of t- shirts (one was not enough,) leggings under overly patched jeans, and finally a pair of hand knit RL argyle socks were stretched on top of the jeans to keep the warmth inside. Feeling wrapped and bundled up, felt cozy and protected on a bitter winter day, especially, when Chanel "Le Vernis Riva" was gleaming on one's nails.2011 -- it sounds like a number that very recently, seemed so far, far, away, into the future, that it was only for the imagination and not for the reality ... but here we are, with a new year in front of us. I do hope that each and every one of you enjoys a fruitful year, and that all your hopes and wishes come true.
Best wishes,

CIOs have a big challenge in managing data. Companies are sitting on huge stacks of historical data, with many now increasingly looking to leverage these data sets for business gain, such as improved customer loyalty and enhanced operational efficiency.
Not only that but digital businesses are now looking to utilise new, real-time data coming from Internet of Things (IoT) devices, smart cities and autonomous vehicles to derive similar insights.
This data offers CIOs an opportunity to analyse how their business is performing almost instantaneously, pushing their data-driven organisations to become more efficient and profitable as a result.
It's to little surprise then that Big Data – the term that refers to technologies and initiatives that involve data that is too diverse, fast-changing or huge for conventional technologies, skills and infrastructure to address efficiently -- is a prominent issue near the top of the CIO's agenda, as well as the CEO's. It has been for a long time.
In , 89 percent of C-level executives said that Big Data is very important to their transformation into digital, with executives adding that their companies used Big Data moderately or extensively to identify new sources of revenue (94 percent), retain and acquire customers (90 percent), and develop new products and services (89 percent).
A more recent report from Economist Intelligence Unit found that almost a quarter of business leaders (23 percent) believe Big Data will revolutionise the way businesses are managed.
This further crystallises the need for CIOs and CEOs to work together to transform the business, and this partnership is key given there are still many barriers to Big Data adoption.
Privacy, security and the risk of legal sanctions are potential barriers, while the terabytes of data now flowing in and out of business promises to stretch existing IT architectures and infrastructures.
Yet the biggest danger is arguably the failure to seize on the opportunities of Big Data. Laggard businesses face ceding competitive advantage to rivals, while CIOs could miss their opportunity to take a central role in driving business transformation.
Why firms can't avoid Big Data
There are already several stellar examples of Big Data technologies changing how businesses operate; Netflix is using open-source tools such as Hadoop and Cassandra to analyse viewing behaviour to offer related content, while Airbus is using Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and data platforms to improving flight testing. John Deere, meanwhile, helps farmers to boost crop efficiency through the analysis of radar data.
Retailers like Macy's, Tesco and Walmart have adopted such technologies to roll-out real-time pricing, search and predictive maintenance, while oil and gas companies are taking the output of IoT sensors in drilling equipment to make more efficient and safer drilling decisions.
These are industry-leading examples and many more are following suit; a 2015 study by BARC Research revealed over 40 percent of companies worldwide analyse Big Data and many are now enjoying a variety of benefits, such as better strategic decisions (69 percent), improved control of operational processes (54 percent), better understanding of customers (52 percent) and cost reductions (47 percent).
The key to this, however, is ensuring that organisations are analysing the right data at the right time. The ascent of IoT, in particular, means organisations are increasingly collecting terabytes of data – much which could be worthless. At a recent conference, it was revealed that modern GE aircraft engines can collect data every 62 milliseconds across 5,000 sensors – which could result in data overload.
CIOs need to focus on collecting and analysing the right data at the right time to make smarter strategic decisions. By doing so, they should be able to identify hidden trends in data and do everything from reduce fraud and improve security to predicting and optimising business performance.
Big Data benefits go beyond IT
Businesses must see Big Data as a business opportunity, rather than a siloed IT project.
A study by technology organization Wikibon revealed that the revenue from big data is expected to grow from $5 billion to more than $50 billion by 2017, that for a typical Fortune 500 company just a 10 percent increase in data accessibility will result in more than $65 million additional net income.
The BARC study further indicated that those organizations able to quantify their gains from analysing big data reported an average eight percent increase in revenues and a 10 percent reduction in costs.
The strategic CIO, who is increasingly being asked to "step up" by CEOs to drive business gains, must drive these Big Data initiatives.
So, how do you go about adopting Big Data technologies? Experts say that the CIO must start by defining the business problem, before establishing the partners and technologies you need to use, some of which may be open-source, like Hadoop, Kafka and Spark.
Enterprises will need multi-model data platforms that can handle this copious amounts of data, coming from disparate sources, especially as firms migrate to IoT. Such platforms enable firms to move to real-time decision making, and support multiple transactions at the speed and scale organizations need.
CIOs, and their IT teams, will require rapid access to data to drive decisions, as is the ability to respond to that data. CIOs know now they must step up to drive the Big Data transformation.

Sometimes you want an extra bit of excitement with your gaming experience. A little extra bang for your buck, if you will. Or at least a bit of extra bang for your online digital representation of currency. And that's where the world of themed online slot machines opens up before one. And in this case, the Dragon Master video slot.
Like other themed video slots, Dragon Master takes a general theme and runs with it. In this case, it takes the player into a fantastic world of dragons, treasure, scrolls and of course the titular dragon masters. It's not simply a matter of presenting these icons to the user, either. It's an immersive experience where one can experience a fair amount of multimedia effects. While this isn't as elaborate as some other offerings, the acknowledgement of a dragon slayer icon is always a fun surprise that helps draw one into the experience. It's almost like a character within the game itself is giving you a nod of the head to show that you're doing well.
However, immersion is mostly there to help keep one interested in a game. The big question is whether Dragon Master is worth playing as an actual game. And the answer is a resounding yes. One of the most significant reasons is that the slot was developed fairly recently. Given that it was released in 2010, the design shows heavy influence from predecessors. Video slots in general are a product of gradual evolution in rulesets. Games this new tend to come with an extra level of polish to the rules which make them more engaging.
But just what are those rules? To begin with, the game uses a standard five column layout. In general these behave in a fairly predictable manner. One spins, and hopes to get icons lined up in an advantageous way. In general, these can be said about any slot with a similar layout. However, that's where the more unique aspects come into play.
The most important is the dragon master, from which the game takes it's name. The dragon master acts as a wild card of sorts. It can replace any icon, other than the scatter orb, in order to create a winning combination. There's a reason that one will always be excited to hear his "Huuwah" sound effect when he's in play. Though in terms of actual effect, the sound is useful as a reminder of exactly what's going on in terms of winnings.
However, if one ignores the dragon slayer icon than the typical win is by lining up two or more matching icons on a payline. A payline being anywhere between one and twenty five, depending on how the player wants to run the game. And of course the winnings from those paylines are variable as well. The actual values, as expected, are set by the player as an initial bet. One of the main points of strategy is finding out a comfortable balance between payline and bet. Too many can be overwhelming to some people, while others find a thrill in having so many things up in the air at a single time.
One aspect of the game that some players might find disappointing is the limits to the payout. With ten regular icons and two special ones, the payout might seem a bit limited to some people. At the same time, they also tend to come more frequently as well. So in most ways, it balances out in the end. In general, the best way to compensate for this is by betting the maximum of 25 paylines per spin. With, obviously, the most fitting coin value for one's personal bankroll. In general this is the best way to maximise the nature of the game's numbers. Of course that's also the nature of gambling. If there's no aspect of gambling in a gamble, it's hardly an adventure.
And that aspect of unpredictability is always at play in Dragon Master. There is, of course, the previously mentioned dragon master icon. It serves to replace any possible winning match within a spin. And it gives a nice audio introduction to let one know it's in play. But there's also the orb to be aware of. The orb acts as a scatter icon and will provide an exponential multiple for total payout on a winning spin. The dragon master icon is always good to see, but the orb is the general mark of when things have a high chance of really paying off well. Of course the best of the best is if one sees multiple combinations of dragon master and orb coming into play at the same time.
At first glance, Dragon Master can seem like a fairly standard slot. The graphics and general multimedia effects are functional, and help to draw one into the atmosphere of the game. But they're not as eye catching as some other games. However, the real draw is the streamlined aspects of gameplay. It's a system that's complex, but not too complex. With some general rules which actually help to get players to maximize their betting strategy and general payout. It's certainly worth giving a chance if one's fond of video slots.
