NCERT Updates Books: Top Takeaways for Parents
In an important clarification, the NCERT confirms to ParentCircle that the latest exercise relates to review of textbooks. Read excerpts from an exclusive conversation with the spokesperson of NCERT.
By Arun Sharma • 10 min read
On 17 September 2017, there was news of the NCERT (National Council of Educational Research and Training) making a number of changes in its textbooks. With details about the exact nature of these changes hard to come across, we received a number of calls from anxious parents eager to get an insight into the true picture.
To clear the fog, ParentCircle gets in touch with Mr Hemant Kumar, spokesperson of the NCERT, to give us an insight into the true picture. Here's what Mr Kumar had to say.
What are some important reasons that necessitated the revision of textbooks after a gap of 10 years?
During this gap of 10 years, a number of important events have transpired, like the GST coming into force, demonetisation taking place and some new economic data becoming available. Our textbooks need to reflect all these changes; hence, the need to update them.
So, what we are doing can be termed as a review of the textbooks. It is not a revision as has been projected in certain quarters.
The NCERT publishes 182 textbooks and we are making approximately 800–900 changes or updates across all these books. So, although the number sounds quite huge, it is only around 4–5 corrections per book.
Along with the updates, we are also trying to explain some of the pre-existing content in a more simplified way so that the students will understand it better.
Right now, we are on the verge of finalising all the updates and, very soon, the books will be sent for reprint.
Are there certain classes or subjects where the changes made are more compared to the others?
Once again, we are not revising the textbooks, we are only reviewing and updating them. These changes are uniform across all the books for classes I to XII. We are not making any massive changes to the existing content.
Can you list a few important topics that have been included in the revised books? What is the purpose for the same being included?
Among the new updates, topics on GST and demonetisation are being added, as the facts have changed and the textbooks need to reflect them.
What about the review process? And, what about the topic – 'Good touch and Bad Touch'? Was the decision to include it influenced by recent incidents of child abuse?
Actually, the decision to review the textbooks was taken around 3–4 months ago and that decision is being implemented now. We received feedback from teachers, students and schools through a portal created on our website and through email and postal modes. All these have been put together and analysed.
As far as the specific topic, 'Good touch and bad touch', is concerned, I cannot comment on this at the moment because the HRD Ministry and the Ministry of Human and Child Development have come together and are working on this issue. Once something is decided, it will be conveyed.
What is the reaction of schools to this review? Does the NCERT foresee any changes being carried out in the curriculum in the near future?
There is a general misconception that the NCERT controls schools. We are not in touch with schools directly and do not control schools. The NCERT is actually a research and advisory body to the Government of India on matters of school education. It is the CBSE, which is a different organisation, that gets the schools affiliated to it and directly interacts with them.
Every year, we take updates from the CBSE and the portal that we have created on our website. These are then scrutinised and important feedback taken.
Advance orders have been received for 2.4 crore textbooks for the 2018–19 session? Are these orders for the updated textbooks?
The NCERT has started a portal where both individuals and schools can log in and place orders for textbooks the same way as they do in other online portals.
Today, booking for textbooks with us stands at around 2 crores and 20 lakhs. But, this figure is increasing as new orders are coming in.
The books against these bookings will be supplied in the month of March 2018 for the academic year starting April 2018.
The NCERT plans to help children identify which streams to take up for higher studies through a test. How can students take this test? Can you tell us more about it?
This is an aptitude test designed to help a student decide what career she has an aptitude for and opt accordingly for relevant subjects. The NCERT prepares many such things, but it is up to different organisations and state governments to adopt and use them.
The NCERT is also coming up with a preschool model. What are the pre-requisites that a preschool should fulfil, according to the NCERT?
We are trying to come up with guidelines for preschools in our country because, at present, preschool is an informal sector, with different preschools following different models. We have five centres in our country, which are our own regional centres. Here we have our own schools, which we call Demonstration Multipurpose schools or DM schools. These schools serve as a laboratory for training teachers. Along with these schools, we have also created a working model of a preschool in which we are conducting experiments. Based on our experience, we are planning to come out with a model curriculum for preschools to follow.
The National Achievement Survey is being carried out by the NCERT to improve learning outcomes. What kind of recommendations does the NCERT plan to come up with, based on the results of the survey?
We have been conducting this survey in classes III, V, VIII and X for close to two decades now. The survey checks the learning level of students, how they are performing, and the extent of their understanding of subjects. The purpose is to measure how schools are imparting education and the areas where there is a lacuna. So, this survey is not about individual students but about testing the system to help us make corrections in the system.
Unlike the previous years, this year's survey will be a more comprehensive exercise as it will be carried out at the district level instead of the state level. The tests will be conducted on November 13 for classes III, V, and VIII, but at a later date for class X.
An MoU has been signed between the NCERT and South Korea to teach yoga in that country. What kind of role will the NCERT play in teaching and popularising yoga in South Korea?
We have been interacting with South Korea for quite some time. Our team has visited their institutions and they have visited ours and we have had sustained interactions with each other. We have identified five areas of cooperation, with yoga and physical education being one of them.
Along with institutions in South Korea, we also have tie-ups with Curtin University in Australia, Govt. of Mauritius, and York University in Canada. And, we are exploring possibilities of collaborating with other nations as well.

DENVER >> Buster Posey mostly leads by example. He's content to sit back, listen and try not to laugh through his nose when Hunter Pence turns the clubhouse floor into a revival tent.
But all this time, perhaps the Giants had another motivational speaker in their ranks. Posey called a hitters-only meeting prior to Saturday's game, and a Giants offense that was quietly mediocre for weeks went on to score 18 runs in 18 innings.
They matched the San Francisco-era franchise record by hitting eight doubles in an 8-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Sunday, with Pence lashing three of them. And while the standard disclaimers apply at Coors Field, their hitters generated legitimate optimism after supporting an ailing Johnny Cueto while winning for the 15th time in 17 games.
What was Posey's message?
"Just relax and have our swag on," said Denard Span, perhaps paraphrasing a bit. "Just have some good at-bats. The pitchers have been picking us up. We just have to relax and do our part."
Span appeared as pumped as anyone after missing Saturday's game because of a bruised hip. He somehow morphed into Yoenis Cespedes, throwing out a runner at third base and hitting an upper-deck home run measured at 441 feet.
"Respect the power," said Span with a smile, adding that the homer rivaled only an upper-deck shot he once hit in Philadelphia.
"He crushed that home run," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "I think he surprised all of us that he had that in him."
Of course, Posey does more than talk a good game. One day after hitting a pair of three-run home runs, he reached base four times while boosting his career average to .392 at Coors Field.
It was much more support than Cueto had become accustomed to receiving; he had pitched the Giants to 2-1 and 1-0 victories in his previous two starts. And he needed more help than usual this time.
"I had nothing on the ball," said Cueto, who battled stiffness in his back and left side that cropped up in the first inning.
Cueto scrapped the occasional back turn and shoulder wiggle in his delivery. Yet he pitched out of two scary situations while holding the Rockies to two runs (one earned) in six innings.
Cueto said he expected to be fine to make his next start.
"It obviously affected his command, but he got through it," Bochy said. "He had to calm down some stuff. He had to come up here (to the clubhouse) a few times and get his back stretched out."
Cueto likes to work at a brisk pace, which his teammates appreciate — especially when another early start loomed Monday for the Giants two time zones east in Atlanta.
So when the Rockies' Gerardo Parra stepped out to call for time in the third inning, and then stepped out again, Cueto didn't appear to appreciate it.
Cueto raised his hands. Parra raised his, too. They exchanged a few more words after Parra lined into a double play with the bases loaded — perhaps the game's pivotal moment.
"I just told him to stop asking for time out," Cueto said through interpreter Erwin Higueros. "But that's the game, you know?
"That was the end of it. I told him not to ask for timeout. It was over with. There was no need to say anything else."
No matter how much Cueto quick-pitches opposing hitters, he can only do so much to move along the pace of play.
But he minimized the Rockies' chances against him over six innings to win for the eighth time in 11 starts – something no Giants pitcher has done to begin a season since Shawn Estes in 1997.
The Giants (32-20) are 10-1 in Cueto's 11 assignments.
Cueto's streak of 20 consecutive scoreless innings against the Rockies ended when Trevor Story hit a solo home run in the second inning.
But it would have been a two-run shot if not for Span. The center fielder isn't known for his arm, but he made an on-target throw to third base when Parra tried to advance on a fly out. Third baseman Matt Duffy clipped Parra's ankle with his deft tag, and Giants won a replay review challenge to overturn the initial safe call.
Span joked with reporters who asked about his power. He did the same when asked about the throw.
"Once again, put some respect on my arm," he said with a laugh. "It's been chronicled, I know, that I started out late in the spring because of my shoulder. So it was nice to have a throw like that. … A couple years ago, he'd have been out by a mile."
Pence doubled in the second, third and eighth innings, driving in a run each time, and said that "fancy stuff like that will happen" over a long season. He was most enthused because the strained hamstring that kept him out of the lineup for six days felt even better than it did in his return on Saturday.
Pence took encouragement from that, and inspiration from Posey.
"It was nice of Buster to bring us together and get us talking, and be the great leader that he is," Pence said.

Source (an interesting comment by Sugabelly if you click the link)
Anyone would be excused for wondering why on earth I would classify myself as a Natural Nigerian. Beyond the obvious – I have natural hair; there is a deeper reason why I think I have earned that title. Let's look at a typical day in the life.
I eat natural foods at least 80% of the time. This means that most of what I eat are home cooked meals which are cooked from scratch with as little input from processed helpers as possible. As an example, if I am having French Fries (hardly happens but is a good example), I will usually top it with stew and not ketchup from a bottle. My snacks are usually things that have little or no preservatives like nuts, plantain chips or freshly boiled corn. I typically will not buy granola bars, potato chips or Gala beef roll.
When I am thirsty, powdered drinks like Kool-Aid and Nutri-C are not welcome. The same applies to carbonated drinks like Coke, Pepsi and Fanta. When I need to drink something sweet and cold, I can easily whiz a pineapple in my Vitamix. And there is always the option to drink plain ol' water. I also like to drink fruit teas with honey.
Now comes the interesting one: cosmetics and toiletries. I still use my SURE antiperspirant but will most likely soon dump that for a natural deodorant that contains no aluminum and which will let my body breathe. I have dumped my Sothy's facial cream and I now use a light oil (Grapeseed or jojoba) on my face after my OCM. Due to the dearth of natural products in Nigeria, I have actually taken to making my own Whipped Shea butter mix which I use for my hair and my body. It is easier to spread than just plain Shea butter and thanks to the essential oils I put in it, it smells really good – not that I mind the nutty smell of unrefined Shea butter. I also make and use a variety of lotions for my face and body when I think I need more hydration.
Soaps are a little easier because one can find black soap pretty much everywhere. If I find a batch of black soap too drying, I use it to whip up a batch of liquid black soap fortified with skin loving oils like coconut, jojoba and sweet almond oil.
My hair gets washed with black soap, a bentonite clay shampoo (I will post about this soon) or a castile soap. I have also taken to making my own detangling and leave-in conditioners. Nothing in it but things that are good for me minus the fillers and other questionable ingredients that manufacturers normally use. Thank you Lord, for that degree in Chemistry!
I have made most of these lifestyle decisions consciously because I realize that if you invest in your body, you will normally reap a better reward than those who don't. I would dislike to be burdened with ill health as it will not only affect me but will also affect those who love me. And yes, I am vain enough to want to look good even when I am in my 70s. I am investing now to reap those benefits later.
I make no claims to being 100% natural. I can only aspire. From time to time, your girl slips and doesn't go all natural. When that happens, I don't beat myself up with a stick. I instead look forward to the next day when I can aspire to do better.
To end, let me say this: Being a mother, I feel this weight of responsibility for another human being and being able to expose her to a healthy lifestyle makes me feel that I am doing something right where she is concerned. She is my main inspiration.

Movie Review
Published February 12, 2005 in
By Ryan Parsons | Images property of
Columbia Pictures
Will Smith and Eva Mendes
I have recently had the pleasure to watch the latest Will Smith film
. However, instead of science fiction or action, Smith takes a chance with a romantic comedy containing the tag line 'cure for the common man.' One thing that is unique to
is that it is a love comedy that doesn't seem to favor women. The story actually allows men to appreciate the film just as much as women. And, considering it is Valentine's weekend, this film came out at just the right time.
- The Plot
Will Smith plays as Alex 'Hitch' Hitchens, a private love doctor who makes all of his business through referrals only [causing him to become more of a legend or myth]. Every one of Hitch's clients is the common man, each madly in love with some lady. Hitch steps in and does the necessary research to give each man, or client, a fighting chance for the one he loves. However, Hitch does not work for clients that only want to get the girl in the sack. This fact will later prove that his intentions for his male clients are strictly noble.
After being in the business for some time, Hitch assumes he has everything about women figured out. This soon changes when Hitch meets two individuals that will change his life and thought process on women. The first person is Sara [Eva Mendes], who is a gossip reporter with some serious relationship issues. Through her, we come to realize that Hitch, even though he is the love doctor, is actually afraid of love. Sara and Hitch have to work on one another to get each to see that love is always a possibility [with very humorous outcomes].
The other person is Hitch's next client, Albert [Kevin James]. Albert is a CPA under a large firm that serves the love of his life-- Allegra Cole [Amber Valletta], a very famous lady. Albert will be Hitch's hardest job, as Albert 'swings for the fences.' It takes a little under a third of the film to set up each of these characters and their current situations. While this first third of
is enjoyable, the middle third is where the comedic spark finally ignites.
Amber Valletta and Kevin James
During the girth of
, we encounter two separate plot lines that each have their own comedic elements. We first have the relationship between Hitch and Sara. Hitch, who usually has no problem picking up women and being smooth for the ladies, continues to 'crash and burn' during his dates with Sara. Things such as kicking her off of her jet ski and getting his shirt stuck in a taxi are just the beginning of his problems. However, both Sara and Hitch still see that there is some spark between them and try to persevere.
The next relationship is between Allegra and Albert [and Hitch]. The scenes between these two are very well constructed. As each of Albert's dates go forth, we constantly get flash backs to lessons and rules laid down by Hitch. During the dates, we encounter Albert trying to stick to these rules while also attempting to be himself.
One of the instances is dancing. Albert considers himself a good dancer, even though no one else does. Hitch lays down the ground work that Albert can only move back and forth with his 'shoulders at his sides.' Albert, while dancing with Allegra, tries to follow the 'dancing rule' but takes a few of his own risks every time Allegra turns her back to him [risks that have repercussions later].
As the dates between both couples continue, we soon begin to learn that maybe the perfect somebody is not exactly what any female, or male for that matter, wants.
- The Movie
By the end of the film, there are tons of lessons to be learned. The best part is that while some of these lessons follow Hitch's ideas on dating, a lot of them don't. The key point that gets across is that if you can just be yourself, you will always find your perfect match.
Hitch also makes a pretty humorous point that girls only give guys 'one chance.' You are given one first impression, one dance, and one kiss. If you blow those, you blow your chances with the girl. However, Hitch repeatedly blows his chances with Sara causing him to announce that there may be no formula to love.
Final Judgment: Hitch couldn't have come out on a better weekend. While the film is good and will make you laugh, I don't think it would ever have the success it may have during this weekend. Even though the film does put a lot of emphasis on relationships, it does not forget that it has Will Smith and Kevin James to keep the laughs constantly rolling in. This is one romance film a guy should be willing to see.

There are many migrants in China that collect bottles and other things to make money. Today, there was a man sleeping on a cart in the subway. I was riding the subway and noticed he had fallen asleep. I meant to give him my bottle but thought "maybe he doesn't want my bottle, maybe he doesn't collect trash". However, when he woke up and saw the empty bottle lingering in my hand, he eagerly asked me for it. As I was about to get off, I thought of the new bottle of water in my bag. "He would be so happy, maybe he's so thirsty plus he could get cash for the bottle". Part of me fought against my "good side" because I thought of how people would think of me. I didn't care anymore. I didn't care if I was associated with the outcasts. I gave him the bottle in the crowded subway, not really caring if everyone was staring.
His face lit up the brightest I've ever seen. That smile was seriously the highlight of my day. I said a small p-yer for him. He kept saying thank you. We walk through each day, not hearing the spirit. But when we hear and obey, it's the best thing on earth.
This is me eating with my new Minzu writer friend. Meaning she is one of the 103,000 Minzu out of her specific Minzu tribe in China. I was excited to eat hot pot, but…after got a little stomache 😦 Oh well, it was worth the taste and experience! She said that she used to herd sheep with her dog. Dogs are her friends, I thought that was so poetic and sweet. I read a few of her writing in the book she wrote, simply amazing!
Um yah, sorry about the mess. I realize how horrid I am with eating….I need to take an etiquette class for sure. Plus, the shameful thing is that I suck at using the chopstick..:( I think it's the spicy-ness that led to bathroom time later on. LOL
I am finally skyping with my family tonight, woot woot. I still miss LA for the sun.

Amazing...very clean comfortable best accomodation ever..we will definately be back.having our own private pool deck was just so relaxing.everything eas just spot on.would highly reccomend.
Friendly service, wonderful spacious apartment with all the amenities needed. Beautiful pools. Loved our spa! Great walking distance to restaurants, shops and the beach. Will return on our next visit.
Best location, very clean room & stunning pool. Friendly staff & easy access to all. Great Barbecue area on looking pool.
I stayed here with my fiance over the easter break and loved every bit of it. We received a bottle of champagne as we were celebrating our recent engagement. The room was clean and offered privacy. We stayed in the Shantara apartment room which gave us direct access to the pool which was great for a late night swim and they provided plastic glasses that you can take outside. We also had a spa in the bathroom and outdoor jacuzzi which was amazing. Highly reccommend Shantara and we will definately be back!
Merilyn and I had a great time at Shantara Resort. The facilities were excellent and the staff were very helpful. We had a great time in Port Douglas and highly recommend the resort to all. Regards, Michael and Merilyn
A Fantastic place for a long weekend away for a couple
We have stayed here for the last 2 years, the staff are amazing, the room clean & clinical the facilities first class. Would not stay anywhere else at Port Douglas.
My husband did a bit of researched and decided to book at Shantara. It had great reviews and was very comparable to the other hotels/resorts in terms of price and facilities. We stayed a week during the off season and it was one of the best vacations we have had. The place was adults only and so it was peaceful. We had the pool to ourselves any time of the day. The other guests were respectful yet friendly when we acknowledged each other. The reception team were very friendly and welcoming especially Dinah! Lots of suggestions and helped us book a tour for the outer reef and had heaps of suggestions for other places of interests. The room was perfect. Neat and clean and the air con and fan were on to greet us when we arrived in the afternoon. We had the 1 bedroom apartment with an equipped kitchen. We got food and drink supplies as we drove up from Cairns so we could stock the family size fridge! There is an under cover bbq area which included basic condiments and utensils. We cooked our meals and had them on our balcony over looking the pool. We stayed for 7 nights so there was a complimentary room clean or else you can get it done for a small fee when you want to. We have a couple of friends who stayed there years ago and they enjoyed it too. We would recommend it and will definitely go back. Pete and Sumay
We love go back again one day
Shantara Resort is a fantastic place to stay in Port Douglas. The hotel is situated only 5 mins away from both the main town and the beach which has lovely restaurants, bars and shops. The rooms meet satisfaction highly with air conditioned rooms, a lovely balcony overlooking the pool and very clean. The receptionist staff are very friendly are very helpful with assisting you in anything you need. I would highly recommend this accommodation to stay in Port Douglas. I will definitely be returning!

"Jeffrey went above and beyond his role as a realtor to find me my dream home with incredible service and attention to detail. Even after the close of escrow, he assisted me in the renovations and made sure that project was completed. I would recommend Jeffrey to anyone who is buying or selling a home."
"Jeffrey was a MONEY and TIME saving genius. The Los Angeles market was challenging, and he worked tirelessly to find us our dream home. He has an incredible KNOWLEDGE of property, and was the kind of man who would get down on his knees in crawl spaces to look at the pipes, or foundations of homes. He also gave us ideas for easy ways to renovate to make less expensive houses perfect for us. He works incredibly fast, we saw our dream house on a Saturday morning and we put an offer in an hour later, thank goodness because they got 9 offers and because Jeffrey was so well liked by the seller, the chose to go with us. He is a DREAM. you will NOT be disappointed. Happy hunting! "
"I have worked with Jeffrey for over 10 years. Jeffrey's efforts go above and beyond the norm to get his clients the results they desire. He is a master negotiator which will help you get your offer accepted in this competitive real estate market. His marketing expertise and background in construction and design will help you sell your home quickly. His work ethic is impeccable as he tirelessly works to ensure that you are satisfied with his services and results. I highly recommend Jeffrey if you want a realtor with experience that will get the job done!"
"Jeni was everything during this process. As a first-time home purchaser, she was with me every step of the way and could not have been more helpful. She also found me exactly what I was looking for - the exact area, amenities, price... she nailed it. I had trouble with paperwork, Jeni dropped everything and sat with me to go over every word together. She was the best partner in this process that anyone could ever ask for. I would 100% use her again and plan to. I'm also telling everyone I know to use her. She's smart, easy to communicate with, driven, and so patient and understanding. Thank you, Jeni!"
"Jeffrey helped me sell a home and after that positive experience, I enlisted his help one more time to buy a home. He is friendly, utmost professional, and helpful at all stages (ie. good response time, negotiation, availability). He will do what is in your best interest. His judgement can be trustedand I am happy with both transaction. I highly recommend Jeff to help you buy, sell, or rent."
"If you work with Jeffrey, you could not be in better hands. He steered me toward an apartment I love, away from ones he thought I wouldn't, and made me more than $100,000 in three years when I decided to sell it."
"I have known Victoria Berenbau for 25 years during which time we have worked on a large number of real estate transactions. As a tax attorney who plans estates and administers probate and non-probate estates, I have been comfortable in recommending Victoria's services to my clients.
Her recommendations for acquisition of property, management of rental real estate, exchange of properties and sales have been honest, complete and forthright. Follow through in each part of every transaction is her standard practice.
Without reservation, I will continue to refer my clients to Victoria Berenbau. She is a true professional."
"I am a long distance landlord on my property in West Los Angeles. For a long time, I was managing the property myself. It was not an easy task to say the least. I decided to hire a local Los Angeles manager.
When I decided to do a 1031 exchange on my West Los Angeles property, my manager introduced me to Ms.Victoria Berenbau. At that time, I was planning to find my target property in either San Diego or Long Beach. I went to see Victoria mainly to get a second opinion on the appraisal of my property.
She is very knowledgeable in her field. She is a realty broker and was managing more than a 100 realtors. She took the time to show me how it would be a better investment to have the property in Los Angeles. At that time San Diego market was going crazy. Long Beach was my second choice. I was working with a realtor at that time. After a few meetings with her, I realized I needed someone like her with her connection, knowledge and patience to do my 1031 exchange. I was right, she brought her team to perform the work needed to repair my property before it was placed in the market. She went the extra mile for me and qualities like that are rare to find. I knew she was taking good care of me in every aspect which is a very comforting feeling since I live in San Diego. She sold my property at the price I wanted. Then the next step was to find the 1031 exchange property. She found the beautiful property in Los Feliz for me— exactly what I wanted within the time frame required by a 1031 exchange.
Property is close to downtown, located in high rental demand area, architectural beautiful building and also at the price point I was looking for — something I feel proud to own and a great investment property.
About 4 years Later, Ms Victoria Berenbau helped me acquired another 4-plex building in the LA Grove area -- another great acquisition. The building and units are beautiful with character just like the Los Feliz 6 unit building she got for me. All my experiences with her are wonderful. I would definitely recommend her service and. I cannot say enough about Ms. Victoria Berenbau".
"My husband (now deceased) and I have known Victoria Berenbau for about 38 years. During that time she handled the purchase and sale of several properties for us. She always was available when needed and listened to our special requirements with patience and understanding. She went out of her way to find for us what we wanted, never tiring. Victoria always did an excellent and professional job, and I can highly recommend her in case a real estate agent is needed."
"We are so happy that we found Jeni and she became our real estate agent. The buying process can be very frustrating, especially in a tough market like Los Angeles. Jeni made this process so much better by being accessible whenever we had questions. We were buying our first home and we had a lot of questions. She helped us day after day with anything that came up. She is very knowledgeable and puts your mind at ease while staying on top of it all. She is a joy to be around which is something you want in a real estate agent as you will be spending a lot of time together during the process. She is laid back, but extremely professional and prompt to act. She also steered us in the right direction on the loan we got using a company she recommended after we had compared some other ones. She helped us attain a home that fits us. We cannot recommend her enough! Thanks Jeni!"
"I have known Victoria for almost 20 years, both as an agent and a friend. She really goes above and beyond to make sure her clients get exactly what they are looking for. Even properties I have sold out of town that I own, she was right there to find me an agent to handle those transactions for me. Her experience and integrity are truly unmatched by any agents I have seen or worked with prior. I highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking to either sell there current home or looking for a new one. Of course, I would use her for both. Everything from sales to rentals, she has helped me with all. She's is also up to date and resourceful with all aspects including the current and alternate finance options and First Time Buyers. Truly the only choice when looking for that person who treats you like a valued customer not just a quick commission."
"I was referred to Victoria from an agent in Arizona. She returned my phone call promptly and eagerly regarding a potential listing of a home in the Beverly Hills area. Victoria was able to accommodate my traveling schedule so we could meet to list the property. The sale involved two families in the listing, so she had 2 sets of questions to answer and 2 different people to please. She was patient, professional and always took our questions and concerns seriously. The property was shown many times and the sale transaction was done with great ease. I recommend Victoria highly to anyone selling a home. Thank you Victoria!"
"Jeni is a fantastic agent - professional, empathetic, energetic and knowledgeable. She made a very intricate process simple and efficient. She will become a great part of your life!"
"Victoria Berenbau is an excellent real estate agent! She is dedicated to finding the best house for you that fits your needs and desires. She spent a lot of time finding the absolute best homes for me to visit and potentially buy. Throughout the entire experience of viewing homes, bidding on homes and buying a house, Victoria demonstrated excellent customer service. Victoria would come to my house and pick me up in order to drive me to each house we planned to visit. After we viewed the homes, Victoria would often take me for a meal, where we would discuss the homes we just viewed. She listened intently to my comments, questions and/or concerns regarding the homes so that I could find, and buy, the absolute best house for me. Once I had chosen a house, Victoria was a very shrewd negotiator (she was a wizard when we went to court, where we had to bid on the home I eventually bought). Victoria's tough and affective negotiation tactics helped score my perfect house! Looking for the house of your dreams? Victoria will help you find it."
"Gini, We adore you- you know that. Anyone that evens whispers a real estate need we send your way."
"Gini Kramer-Goldmanwhat a fantastic job on negotiating and getting our clients through escrow eventhough the property had multiple offers. You are one of the most wonderful and professional agentsthat I have met. Sara and David were lucky to have you as their agent. Congratulations!"
Guschewski was my realtor to secure my lease in Los Angeles from 2015 - 2018.

Replaces the heavy and restrictive catalytic converters with a lightweight free-flowing performance X-Pipe for maximum power and sound.
Replacing the factory catalytic converters with our straight through X-Pipe will provide a significant increase in volume while also revealing a much more defined and aggressive exhaust note.
The Cat Bypass X-Pipe dramatic increases power in the mid to high end of the RPM range. Street drivers may notice a small torque loss at low RPM's, which is why we recommend the Sport Cat X-Pipe for street applications.
Fits all Porsche 996 GT3 vehicles 1999-2005
Adds 12whp and 12ft/lbs of torque
Saves 25lbs from the rear of the car vs the factory catalytic converters
Designed for racing and maximum power applications
Improves throttle response and provides aggressive sports car sound
Used by many Rolex Grand Am Cup racing teams and PCA/POC/ DE enthusiasts
Constructed from mandrel bent T304L stainless steel
Simple DIY bolt-on installation, no cutting or welding required
All Fabspeed performance products are backed by the Fabspeed Lifetime Warranty
- Please also bear in mind that this system does not include catalytic converters, so the Check Engine will most likely be triggered

This product is or contains a Racing Cat Bypass Pipe, which will give you check engine lights on OBD2 cars.

Very aggressive sound and nice power gain!
I personally don't feel any torque loss after installing this bypass pipe. Very aggressive sound above 5000 rpm to red line. (like 996 GT3 cup car). Very nice power gain as well. Installation is straight forward and I recommend removing the rear bumper for easier installation. Should have brought this sooner.

Match my photo game
In my never ending quest to keep my children entertained while still "working their mind" – I created this game. The game itself is certainly not a new concept – a matching game.
But in my version I bought a cheap deck of standard cards from the dollar store. I printed two sets of 12 wallet sized pictures of each child. Glued (with a hot glue gun or they will peal right off the card due to the coating on the card) them onto the cards (they were just large enough to totally cover the information on each card. I chose not to use the wallet prints "as is" because I wanted them to be more heavy duty and I also wanted the backs to be exactly the same – the pattern on the back of the deck of cards.
See?! They look like a standard set of cards from the backside.
But from the front side – there are two of each photo.
Shuffle them up – spread them photo side down on the floor – and let your children take turns trying to find the identical matches.
24 fit perfectly into a gift card container – making them very easy to transport and show all their friends.
Once I gave each set to my kids for Christmas – they weren't too stimulated with just 12 sets each. They immediately combined both sets and now that is what they use. So, depending on the age of your children you may wish to make about 20 sets of 2.

The eCommerce industry is growing faster than ever. So if you thought just having an online store with great products and discounts is enough to get sales, you're wrong. And no, running ads isn't enough either.
Here's what you really need to do to increase eCommerce sales in 30 days apart from email marketing that most suggest!
Five strategies to increase eCommerce sales
1. Optimize your site experience to remove shopper distractions
You might be wondering what we're talking about, but here's the thing.
A typical internet user has at least ten browser extensions and web apps in use. They help them with productivity and sometimes even in comparing products across different sites.
But what these extensions and apps also tend to do is inject adware onto sites. This results in unauthorised competitor ads, promotional pop ups, adult content and more show up on online stores.
Wait, you have a CSP in place. How is that even possible?
These extensions and apps are known to surpass CSP regularly. Even online retailers as big as Nine West fell prey to them.
So while you can't see these ads, 11% of your store traffic is exposed to them. These ads are not just distracting your shoppers, but also luring them away from your store.
Here's the difference between what you see and what the shopper does:
The very first strategy is to remove these very distractions and ads.
But to be able to do so, you need to monitor 12,000+ adware strains every day and on the consumer's browser. After that, you need to identify what kind of distractions that adware is going to inject onto your site.
If you ask us, that's a lot to do!
That's where you plug in smart conversion optimization softwares like BrandLock. With one line of code, the Shield continually monitors the consumer's browser – irrespective of what browser they are using and what device they are on.
It then identifies the adware and the distractions they may cause in real-time. Doing so, the software proactively removes competitor ads and other unauthorised content before they even show up.
With absolutely nothing except your own products and promotions to see, you automatically decrease your exit rates.
Decreased exit rates mean more product page views and that adds up to increase eCommerce sales in no time.
2. Leverage Facebook Messenger to start conversations
Because conversations lead to conversions and sales. And what better place to start one than one where the shopper is already active?
There are 2.5 billion using Facebook and the Messenger app. We see no reason in not going beyond Facebook ads and retargeting to use a strategy that truly engages the shopper.
We all love the Facebook Messenger for how easy it makes communicating with one another. The same holds true when it comes to talking to online shoppers and your existing customers.
Take for instance a shopper visits your store. They add a few products to their cart but don't complete the purchase.
Now while they may or may not come back to make that purchase, they are surely going to use Facebook Messenger sometime in the day.
What if you sent them a quick message their reminding them of the abandoned cart?
Let them know you're still holding onto the products they liked. Create a sense of urgency or scarcity around them to nudge them to come back to your site. Or maybe offer a special discount that sweetens the deal for them a little more!
In fact, Toll Wear uses Facebook Messenger to recover abandoned carts and increase eCommerce sales by a whopping 40%.
Alternatively, you could also use this conversational marketing strategy to make product recommendations.
Based on what a shopper has previously purchased or shown interest in, you could send in quick messages to let them know of a new product range or a sale that you're running.
The instantaneous nature of these messages and the shopper's habit of using chat apps through the day, gets you more interaction.
They are more likely to read these messages as compared to even cart recovery emails!
What's more?
It doesn't require the shopper to share their email address. All it takes is a smaller commitment of agreeing to get notifications on the Messenger. That's why the opt-in rates for this communication channel are also higher!
If you're wondering how long it is going to take for you to set up Messenger Marketing, try Flashchat. All you need to do is select your triggers, create your messages and you're up and running in no time.
3. Re-engage shoppers with web push notifications
A typical online shopper will not make a purchase on their visit. They would rather checkout other online stores for similar products and better deals.
While you have no control over that, you can be sure of driving them back to your store.
Web push notifications.
Be it on mobile or on the desktop, web push notifications are messages that a website can send to shoppers even when they're not on the site.
They're pretty much similar to the notifications sent to you by mobile apps. Just that in this case, your online store doesn't need a mobile app!
Here's what they look like on the desktop:
And here's how they get delivered on the mobile:
Just like the messenger apps, web push notifications offer a real-time and more instant way of connecting with online shoppers.
But the good part about them is how they too don't ask shoppers to make a bigger commitment. They don't need to share their email addresses to be notified of sales!
That's why web push notifications too have a high opt-in rate as compared to emails.
And unlike emails, you don't have to wait for your message to be opened. They are delivered straight on the screen of their devices, capturing their attention immediately.
In fact, Headphone Zone achieved a 13.9% click through rate on their web push notification campaign. With cart recovery and customer engagement campaigns, the store got 10X ROI.
And it's actually really easy to start running web push notification campaigns for your store.
With PushOwl, you can set them up in a matter of minutes.
Be it a flash sale, a new product launch, style guides, product recommendations or notifications to recover abandoned carts and ask for customer feedback, the app offers ready-to-use, editable templates.
All you need to do is get creative with your messaging and test different types of campaigns to increase eCommerce sales.
4. Retarget online shoppers with Facebook Dynamic Ads
You know how remarketing and retargeting ads work.
You visit a website, browse a few products and come away. The products then seem to follow you all across Facebook for the coming days.
But here's what happens.
When the store shows you the same picture of the product or uses the same messaging, you tend to get bored. For that matter, you get so exhausted seeing the ad that you lose interest in the product itself.
So instead of helping you turn your store visitors into customers, the ad ends up irritating who could be your possible customers.
That's where Facebook Dynamic Ads come in.
They don't just help you reach those who have visited your store before, but also those who could be interested in your products.
Dynamic ads automatically show the right products to people who have expressed interest in what you offer on your store or anywhere else on the internet.
All you need to do is upload your product catalogue and set up your campaign once. It then continues to work for you as long as you want.
The ads then automatically switch product images, pricing and availability based on your inventory. Reducing your manual efforts, the ads help you increase eCommerce sales in no time.
5. Step in to become their shopping assistant with a live chat
Believe it or not, even online shoppers love to get some help finding the right products. Pretty much similar to how it happens at brick and mortar stores.
And no, sometimes size guides, FAQs, customer testimonials, product descriptions are not able to help the shopper.
Since there is no touch and feel of the product, a lot of shoppers are skeptical about making a purchase. They want to be doubly sure about what they are going to spend on. But without getting to try the product physically, it's impossible.
Now what if you could step in to offer help or just be there in case they have a question?
You won't just be able to address queries faster, but also lessen the chances of them leaving your store without making a purchase.
Yes, we're talking about live chats.
While it is a good idea to let a shopper browse your store at their own pace and without interruption, it is also better to be around.
Take for instance, you're promoting a premium collection on your store. All the prices are on request.
Now a typical shopper will visit your product catalog and expect to see prices immediately. No one likes to subscribe to get access to pricing.
If you have a live chat implemented, this shopper can immediately drop you a message regarding the product they are interested in.
By offering help in a timely manner, you're able to turn more visitors into customers and increase eCommerce sales.
Increase eCommerce sales in 30 days with customer engagement
There is no shortcut to offering a great shopping experience to your target market. But the one hack that really works and works fast, is customer engagement.
While you're focusing on designing an appealing online store and offering the best of prices, look into what makes your shoppers interact with you.
Step into their shoes.
Then make it easier for yourself to not just browse products, but also discover deals, engage with the brand and eventually, make a purchase on the site.
After all, you too are a customer to an online store!
Which of these strategies have you used to increase eCommerce sales?
If there is a secret sauce that you've been using to grow your sales, don't forget to share it with us!

Tes3Mod:Tamriel Data
|Home Page
|Tamriel Rebuilt
Project Tamriel Forum
Tamriel_Data is an asset repository containing meshes, textures, region data, books, and various other items for use with any Morrowind mod. It was created from and is primarily intended for the large-scale province mods Tamriel Rebuilt and those within Project Tamriel: Skyrim: Home of the Nords and Province: Cyrodiil. Tamriel Rebuilt used its own file structure until release 16.09, as did the other mods. There are two main downloads, one for vanilla-resolution textures and the other for full-resolution.
Tamriel_Data includes two BSA files, TR_Data.bsa and PT_Data.bsa, that must be registered in Morrowind.ini under [Archives]. Tamriel_Data.esm replaces the old TR_Data.esm, PC_Data.esm, and Sky_Data.esm that were used before they were merged.
Due to its scope, many of the assets in Tamriel_Data are nothing like what you would normally find in Vvardenfell. There are assets associated with all of the common Tamrielic races and from all provinces.
Character Information
- Races — New races added by Tamriel_Data, such as Reachmen
- Classes — New classes used by NPCs, mostly for provinces other than Morrowind
Gameplay Information
- Diseases — New diseases you may catch
- Items — New items, including armor, clothing, weapons, ingredients, potions, scrolls, books, and clutter
- Spells — New spells you may cast

Foggy, still and cold
Endless meadows disappear
In the eerie fog.
WordPress one-word prompt: Eerie
Foggy, still and cold
Endless meadows disappear
In the eerie fog.
WordPress one-word prompt: Eerie
Wow! What a word. Transmogrify which means "to change in appearance or form, especially strangely or grotesquely; transform."
Well, in honour of this week's theme I have chosen this photo I took in the Rua Da Academia Das Ciências in Lisbon, of a spray can used to transmogrify a wall.
It was carefully placed in an old wall sconce itself making an interesting transmogrified artistic display.
Entered in WordPress' weekly photo challenge, the theme of which is Transmogrify.
I remember as student wanting to look cool at 'varsity. Who doesn't? The only way I knew how to do this was to start smoking. I mean, isn't holding a cigarette cool? And everyone else was doing it! So I had to do it too right? The Marlboro man looked cool. And all those gorgeous people in the Mainstay advert also looked cool. Oh wait, Mainstay is vodka not cigarettes.
Anywhoo, I told my folks that I was going to do this because…honesty. My Mom said cool as long as I don't smoke in the house. So I rushed to the corner shop and bought a packet of cigarettes.
To cut a short story even shorter, because this phase was a short one, thankfully, I didn't enjoy smoking. Not even the visions of looking cool were enough to turn it into a habit. I gave away more cigarettes than I smoked. After a month I decided that this was a failed experiment, thankfully.
I solved the "how to look cool at 'varsity" goal by dressing up in eccentric clothes, wearing all manner of hats and wearing large earrings. This turned into a habit and I am still known to dress eccentrically at times. Not all the time because…clients.
Response to WordPress's one-word prompt – Smoke.
I just needed a reminder today.
Number 11: There is never only "just". You are never only "just". Your needs are not only "just"… (see point 1 above).
Nymphenburg Palace, in the Baroque architectural style, was the summer place of the rulers of Bavaria.
Entered in this week's WordPress weekly photo challenge with the theme of Shine.

Dev D Hindi Movie Review
First things first. I hate 'rating' films. And though I don't know if this really matters, but I do feel terribly obliged to explain exactly how I have arrived at my rating for this film- for it was certainly something that posed a great dilemma to me. It feels cruel to reduce this bravura attempt by Anurag Kashyap to calculating a silly score, but ultimately, I decided I had to go with simple good ol' arithmetic- simply put, four stars for the first chapter of the film and minus one for the rest.
Needless to say, Dev D-rails terribly in the second half, and excuse me for wanting to get it out of my system before I talk about what I loved. So here goes:
CHAPTER 1: Why, Anurag, Why
Emotional Atyachaar. Nothing but the cracker of a song (composed by the awesome Amit Trivedi who creates an exceptional soundscape for the film) can describe the pain you feel as you see a potential cult film wreck itself right before your eyes. In a surreal turn of events, you see film become the man, as Dev D turns self-destructive, directionless and seemingly senseless. You look for a spark somewhere, a small shard that you can hold close and perhaps connect to, but it all gets lost in a purple-blue haze of smoke.
Speaking of which, even No Smoking, for all its indulgence and magnificently bizarre twists and turns, never completely lost the plot this way. It held together, because there was some innate method to the madness, which is hard to find here. What could have been a poetically tragic, bittersweet tale of two wounded, lost souls finding momentary happiness together becomes an exercise in futility and for the viewer, often sheer frustration. Kalki Koechlin, who plays Chanda, has an endearing fragility and waif-like presence, but she falls woefully short, and her labored accent and patchy characterization (even after Kashyap painstakingly sets up a sad and unnecessarily long back-story for her) makes it impossible to relate to her.
There's some of Kashyap's trademark witty dialogue here too, and a few scenes that sparkle in between- my personal favorite (and especially topical in a way, with the recent incidents of moral policing) is one where an old lady launches into a lecture for the protagonist whose side-splitting reaction nearly made me fall off my chair. But with the absence of any propulsive narrative force, Dev D almost begins to torture, and the repetitive onslaught of montages (all of which are brilliantly shot by Rajeev Ravi) takes this part beyond redemption. In the end, it's another of Trivedi's mind-blowing tracks that perhaps echoed my sentiments:
Nayan Tarse,
Nayan Tarse,
Daras Na Mile,
Nayan Tarse…
CHAPTER 2: Wow, Anurag Wow!
The sarson ke khet are in place, and her dupatta does flutter, but trust me, this Paro is hardly one to melt like ghee and butter. The sacred Yash Raj idiom is turned on its head, with Kashyap's heady and cleverly concocted cocktail. The esoteric filmmaker springs a surprise and even a few pleasant shocks onto us, and discovering each moment of this wonderfully quirky take on the classic novel is a delight.
Frankness and candor like this has perhaps never been seen in mainstream Hindi cinema. Even as the director cheekily and sincerely references the novel and its adaptation by Sanjay Bhansali, he contemporarises it like perhaps only he could have- and turns romantic icons into flesh and blood people. Set against an impeccably detailed and colorful Punjab, Dev and Paro's love story comes alive like never before, because Kashyap has the balls to acknowledge them as sexual creatures without making a fuss over it.
A landmark film in the way it portrays youth and young love, and superbly etched with irony and humor, Dev D marries Kashyap's typical stylistic flourish with multi-layered substance, and this is truly a match made in heaven.
Deol is perfectly cast here, and the actor (who conceptualized the film) drips coolth and 'typical Indian' male chauvinism in equal measure. The attitude and arrogance of the spoilt Punjabi lad is brought out with astounding realism, and once again the courageous young actor packs a solid punch.
But the real knockout here, without doubt- is Mahi Gill, whose fiery, spunky presence commands your attention in each frame she is in; her raw earthy charm wins you over and the sheer poignancy that she brings to Parminder is truly heartbreaking. Gill, who has earlier acted in Punjabi films, is a far cry from our delicate, virginal heroines, and I am compelled to say that I haven't fallen in love with an actress this way since Vidya Balan made her debut. Whatever she stars in next, my tickets are already booked. Needless to say, Mainu Mahi Naal Ho Gaya Pyaar.

Give Ohio Basement Authority a call! We can schedule one of our inspectors to visit your home and help locate the leak or break in the sewer and/or water line. Then, we can schedule a date for one of our crews to install newer, thicker, more reliable pipe for these essential lines serving your home.
A French drain – also known as a weeping tile, drain tile or sub-surface drain – is a common solution for waterproofing a basement. It's a trench containing a perforated pipe that redirects surface water and groundwater away from the foundation. This type of drainage system can be an effective way to redirect water, but it also has several disadvantages including difficulty of install, expensive maintenance and frequent clogging.
We offer different types of interior French drain systems that are much more effective, efficient and easy to maintain. These include the sub-floor BasementGutter™ perimeter drainage system and grated drainage pipe.
Contact us to set up a free assessment with one of our inspectors who can help you in choosing the perfect waterproofing solutions for your basement!
Egress windows enhance the appearance, as well as safety, of basement windows. They are also ideal emergency exit points for basements. The windows, window wells, and well covers are durable and secure.
The International Residential Code for One-and Two-Family Dwellings states that all habitable spaces, including basements, are required to have at least one operable emergency escape and rescue opening. So if you're planning to use your basement as a bedroom or entertainment space, give us a call! Our expert inspectors can provide you with an estimate for installing one of our various egress window systems.
The best way to waterproof a basement is by taking an interior approach. Our expert crews can install the sub-floor BasementGutter™ drainage system to intercept any leaking water from the basement walls and floor. This water is then directed to a sump pump system to be pumped out of the basement and away from your home's foundation. We also offer a variety of sump pumps to meet your waterproofing and budget needs! Contact us to set up an appointment with one of our inspectors who can help in choosing the right interior waterproofing system for you!
An egress window must satisfy International Residential Code (IRC) criteria. Minimum width of opening: 20 in. Minimum height of opening: 24 in. Minimum net clear opening: 5.7 sq. ft.

If you are interested in insulating and encapsulating your crawl space, give us a call! We would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to provide you with a free inspection and estimate so your living environment will be a healthier one!
If your foundation walls were constructed with concrete or concrete block, it is easy for rain water saturating the ground to pass through concrete and find its way inside your home. Block wall cavities can fill with water, thus soaking the concrete and seeping through to the home. Water also can push its way through the basement's wall-floor joint and flood the basement.
If you find yourself dealing with wet walls or puddles on the floor during and after storms, give us a call! We can provide you with a free inspection and estimate, as well as patented repair solutions that will give you peace of mind and a dry basement.

How to Choose Building Materials
Construction of building entails a lot that is from hiring contractors and buying of building materials. The type of building must be known and be reconsidered before having the building constructed. Choosing the right materials for construction is very important as this will help in the durability of the building.
The type of material used matters a lot when having the building built as you may have the right constructors who are well skilled and qualified but you dont have the right materials. Through social media one can always get the right building material suppliers as there are more websites that have their details which is easy for people to compare. And not only that you can always ask opinions from close people like friends and family also neighbors.
Take a tour to their shops and compare the prices plus the quality of materials this way you will know the difference. taking a tour on your own you will get to know the difference among suppliers and you will realize some items are of the same quality but different prices. If you are looking for building materials always check the quality is it durable or short term and also the pricing matters a lot sometimes you may get the same thing at a lower price.
Also go for quality as this is very important, using good quality building materials you will be guaranteed of quality construction. Flooring should be done using quality materials as this is an eye saw and needs to look better at all times thus quality materials should be used for flooring. There are many types of flooring that includes wooden, tile flooring, clay flooring, hardwood flooring amongst others so depending with your preference you will be able to choose the right one for the building. Windows is also part of building materials and windows come in varieties thus one may choose according to the building setup, mark you not all materials are suited for any building there are sliding windows, energy efficient windows among others however it is vital to choose durable windows with good quality.
Not forgetting to check the maintenance as some materials tend to be very costly to maintain than others. The source of where the materials are fetched also matters a lot remember building materials are bulky and heavy thus transport may vary depending on the distance and the nearer the distance the cheaper. Recyclable materials are recommended as this can be reused after some time and also check availability of the materials as some materials are bound to get scarce which can be very challenging when in need of replacement.
Learning The "Secrets" of Flooring
Why Flooring Aren't As Bad As You Think

You know the scenario, you're having an amazing flight, but you've got to land because you're running low on electrons. But what if you could charge your craft while your're flying, untethered? A Canadian company called Solace Power, in partnership with Boeing, are working to make wireless charging more efficient, and they demonstrate the way their prototype works in the video above, with the green light indicating that the multirotor is charging, mid-air. From TechCrunch:
Introducing the New York City Drone Film Festival, a sold out event created to highlight cinematography captured via your favorite flying platform, the "drone". The screening will take place on March 7th, 2015, and they might add a second screening, so hold on your your hats. From their website:
Presenting the NoFlyzone, a community driven database of properties that will prevent "drones" from flying over your house. Actually, its just a site where you can submit your property without residence verification and somehow in the future, UAV manufacturers will use this data to prevent their craft from flying over your property. Just like DJI is doing for the White House. Oh, nevermind.
Gizmodo has very interesting piece where the compare the early computer club movements of the 70's and 80's with the "DIY Drone" movement that we see now a days. They interview Chris Anderson, former Wired Magazine editor and CEO of 3D Robotics.
One of the most talked about events of in the realm of UAVs in the recent months was the "Drone lands on the White House lawn" incident, which occured on Janurary 26, 2015. First, lets describe the events and the way the media reported on it.
The president of the Academy of Model Aeronautics, Bob Brown, wrote a special note regarding President Obama's reaction to the "Drone on the White House lawn" incident, where a call for more regulation is made.
AMA believes that a much better approach to managing the community is through education, not regulation. AMA has always believed that the best, and perhaps the only, way to successfully manage the recreational community is through a community-based set of safety guidelines and the combined efforts of the FAA and AMA.
I completely agree with this sentiment: regulation is not the key to keeping UAVs from restricted areas, especially because there Washington D.C. is already a no-fly zone. It was not a lack of regulation that enabled this incident to occur, it was a lack of education.
If the solution was to simply ban the technology, or even just disallow it under AMA programming, it's unlikely that it would have any significant impact. If the goal is to thwart a nefarious attempt by someone using this technology, no rule or regulation will prevent that. The point is that it's not the technology, it's how the technology is used.
Check out the complete note. Its a worthwhile read.
Special message from Academy of Model Aeronautics President Bob Brown: We stand for education, not regulation | AMA Government Relations Blog.
Wired magazine just published a very interesting article titled "Why the US Government Is Terrified of Hobbyist Drones" where they discuss an eye-opening conference about the potential malicious uses of "drones" that happened just days before the "Drone at the White House" incident.
The conference was open to civilians, but explicitly closed to the press. One attendee described it as an eye-opener. The officials played videos of low-cost drones firing semi-automatic weapons, revealed that Syrian rebels are importing consumer-grade drones to launch attacks, and flashed photos from an exercise that pitted $5,000 worth of drones against a convoy of armored vehicles. (The drones won.)
This is a subject that many UAV enthusiats, including myself, would rather ignore, but we are very aware of the potential harm that off-the-shelf "drones" could inflict. I imagine we all have theorized how an individual with malicious intent could set out to harm and destroy people and property. They also had on display a DJI Phantom with 3 sticks of mock dynamite attached to it, as seen below:
But the most striking visual aid was on an exhibit table outside the auditorium, where a buffet of low-cost drones had been converted into simulated flying bombs. One quadcopter, strapped to 3 pounds of inert explosive, was a DJI Phantom 2, a newer version of the very drone that would land at the White House the next week.
They also discussed the new geofencing-enforcing firmware that will get pushed out to the DJI Phantom 2, how its basically ineffective and user reactions:
"One could theorize that every zone anywhere could be a restricted zone," wrote another. "Thank you but no thank you. If I spend thousands of dollars then I want to fly wherever the heck I want as long as it is under 400ft and 500ft away from airports."
Check out the full article below and let me know what you think.

I came across a new organization designed to protect, integrate and explore the commercial use of UAVs (their term is sUAS, or small unmanned aircraft system). Its called the Association of Commercial Unmanned Aircraft Systems and their website is located at: http://www.acuas.org/. Anyone is free to join and they also accept donations. Their mission statement, as state on their home page is the following:
The ACUAS firmly believes:
and businesses and citizens deserve the opportunity to move forward along with the rest of the world.
and until proven necessary, our government has no basis for restricting commercial operations.
to include everyone who wishes to use and benefit from safe and responsible sUAS operations, without delay and without restrictive barriers-to-entry.
I encourage you to visit their website and join the organization, donate if possible. It these types of organizations and the people behind them that will help UAVs flourish.
Great news for fans of winter sports! ESPN has been given the greenlight by the FAA to use UAVs to film at this year's Winter X-Games. This is the first time ESPN is using unmanned aerial vehicles for videography, but it has been done before at winter events, I do recall multirotors being used at the last Winter Olympics in Sochi.
In cooperating with the FAA, Calcinari said, ESPN had to provide thorough documentation to prove that the drones would be flying in a "closed-set" environment, one that limits access to the fly zone to only members of the production crew. As such, the area where ESPN will be using the drones to film won't be accessible by the public — which, given the FAA's known stance on the recreational handling of these devices, is no surprise.
Lets see what kind of footage ESPN is able to get. Just imagine the shots of the Flying Tomato from above!
The Verge is reporting that during a hearing at Congress a small UAV, more specifically a Parrot Bebop was flown, while Collin Gunn from 3D Robotics gave a presentation about the many potential uses of unmanned aerial vehicles and how they can help generate jobs:
It wasn't much of a demonstration, but it got the point across. A number of representatives broke into smiles and voiced the opinion that drones could be useful for work in agriculture, disaster relief, and natural resource management. That would mean jobs: something every politician likes to stump for. "I was hoping you would fly over the whole room, not just one location," said Smith, after the Bebop landed.
The last time I remember a radio controlled craft being flown inside the chambers where politicians work was the whole flying penis episode, but even more interesting is that since a multirotor from 3D Robotics is probably too big to be flown safely indoors, Collin decided to have a competitor's quad flying while he spoke.
