I took a chance this weekend and decided to go off the grid from the blog world, but not my phone, email, and camera – I just can't leave it ALL behind. But the important piece I realized was that I missed sharing everything going on, so in that spirit – here's a weekend recap in images:

Konnichiwa and welcome to the latest, most obscene, tear-inducing Newsletter than promises nothing but delivers so much more: The 3rdEYE. It's been a hectic couple of months, let me tell you about it.
Friends, I came to a realization the other day while talking to a close acquaintance – many people who know me don't see me as a political person. Many see me as a sort of whacked out guru who supports anything that inspires thought or general mayhem. Well, that may be true, but I've also got a thing or two to say about all the current proselytizing our own government seems to be doing to justify it's worldly invasions in the name of FREEDOM – The American way is being threatened by terrorists! Ohhh yes that's right! I've seen it: Every time I buy a lottery ticket from 7-11 the guy selling it to me no longer tells me 'good luck' and just smiles. He's up to something.
The point here is that I've not yet had a chance to spew my thoughts fully on the subject, so opportunity came knocking rather hard this fine evening and here we are, looking into each others eyes, listening to that Patrick Swayze song "She's like the Wind" and doing oh so much not to fall into one another's arms. The topic this time around is the game that is AMERICAN POLITICS. Don't change the channel yet, I'll do what I can not to sound like the broken record so many critics and loudmouths have been playing through the usual media avenues (Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, I'm looking at you). So here we go:
[editors note for lit.org version - a picture goes here that says "REMEMBER WHO STARTED IT under a picture of the WTC superimposed over an American flag. Very confusing.]
When I saw the logo I thought it was implying that the United States Started the whole thing... Not by having the WTO dismantled by two of our own Commercial Jets or allowing them to hit. I think the attacks on 9/11/2001 could've been prevented with a couple of our military's famed patriot missiles - a prospective loss of 300 lives vs. 2,823 (the official count of deaths as of May 28th 2002). But if that happened, we'd not be able to wage a war on Terrorism so vigorously, or be so able -- even without approval of even half the nation's people or the UN -- to go into Afghanistan and Iraq, bunker busters in tow. Just ineffective advertising, but it did manage to light a fuse for me.
Side note: We still haven't caught the men we were supposed to be going after in either Theatres of War: Usama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein are still alive, and can still likely access their bank accounts. Afghanistan is still a wreck, and the U.S. 'aid' is far from being able to stop. Hamid Karzai, Afghanistan's appointed leader, is still protected by a few hundred soldiers of the United States Army. Outside of Karzai's camp, Taliban rule has unfortunately returned and thus only the city of Kabul can still be considered "free".
What I do think we started is the snowballing anger these "Rogue Nations" have for us. After all, if we weren't the world's police – A job supposedly enforced by the UN – we'd not be the target for much of the hate that bounces off us. There is no reason for the United States to back Israel in everything it does - it only gives the impression that we're against the existence of Palestine. There is no reason for us to occupy so many nations - especially in the Middle East. Why fuel a fire that could've burnt out if we just removed our troops? I know the resources in the region are precious to many of the loudest voices in America, but this sort of obvious protection and hoarding of oil is a greater danger to the people than a boon. Now that we've waged an official "War on Terrorism" the Anti-American sentiment will only grow with each nation we feel the need to occupy just to remove terrorists. Already there are large Anti-American protests popping up all over Baghdad. Chances are we won't be leaving soon enough for the people of Iraq to maintain any faith in our "mission of liberation" for them. For examples see our continued occupation of Japan, and the explosion of worldwide US Army bases post WW2. The largest Military facilities we currently have outside the US are in Heidelberg, Germany.
And just days after the war in Iraq is officially over (the occupation has just begun) there is news of the US discussing siphoning oil from Iraq to Israel. Surprise, surprise. Maybe all those protesters spewing "No war for oil" might not have been so crazy after all? I had too look elsewhere, so I took a look at what the Petroleum Industry's leading publication "Petroleum Argus" had to say:
"New York, 22 April (Argus) — Washington wants the chronically divided UN out of Iraq's oil business. The anti-war camp is reluctant to cede control until a credible Iraqi authority takes over in Baghdad.
The US is moving quickly on the ground to restore Iraq's infrastructure and set up an interim governing structure in the aftermath of the war. That process would go much faster and more smoothly, US officials say, if UN sanctions are lifted. "Liberated" Iraqis, guided by the US Office of Reconstruction and Humanitarian Assistance (ORHA), could run their own affairs, bringing in much-needed investment and dispensing with cumbersome UN controls over oil revenue.
Not so fast, others say. France today called on the UN Security Council to suspend all civilian sanctions on Iraq, including trade, investment, finance and air transportation. But Paris wants to retain a modified form of the UN oil-for-aid programme, including the UN-controlled escrow account for oil revenue, to ensure transparency and international legitimacy. Like Germany and Russia to differing degrees, France wants UN controls lifted gradually, in line with the emergence of a new Iraqi government."
Very Interesting indeed. For the rest of this article and to see the source of this quote go to http://www.argusonline.com/ . Click on the Iraq watch and see all the news regarding Iraq's most precious resource, and the vultures (U.N., U.S. and others) vying for control. There is more than liberation at stake here. There is more than Terrorism being fought here as well.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions about this or anything else regarding the Iraqi occupation, or why I think we're to blame for much of the hate much of the world has for America in general. Even though you may see me as some liberal left wing windbag, the fact of the matter is that I don't consider myself Liberal, Democrat, Republican or anything but a free thinker, politically. This is just what I've seen as the motives for our actions.
So there it was, staring me right in the face. I recall hearing from so many people, not exactly 'pro-war' people but let's just call them 'anti-protest' people, about how this war "can't just be about oil! It's for freedom, it's to fight terrorism, it's for your rights!" this was usually followed immediately by a string of slurs and derogative names, and basically them completely ignoring what I saw as obvious: this is about money. It's about money and the government's attempts to tighten it's hold on other nations, and us as well. I know this sound's paranoid… But let's examine the often overlooked, quickly passed civil rights abolition bill known as the "Patriot Act".
the USA Patriot Act was pushed into law on October 26th, 2001. It was touted as an effective means for preventing another terrorist attack and breezed through the House of Representatives and the Congress, most likely due to it's vicinity to the violent attacks in September that year. Many people have brushed this aside, thinking it will affect them in no way… and they may be right for now, but consider the following.
Under the Patriot Act, the following can be done:
1) The government can request to a judge that any records – including simple google search queries, internet searches, email records and website logs – be handed over without your consent or knowledge. All that needs to be stated to a judge is that your information might be "relevant" to an ongoing criminal investigation.
2) The government can deny civilian requests for information on their own or any files, as stated in the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This is only the beginning of an iron barrier between governmental plans and keeping the public out of it's hair.
3) You can be detained and interrogated for saying the wrong thing. Sounds more like Communist Russia than ever. Take the following paraphrased from The Progressive, December 11th, 2001 edition: Two writers from "Voices in the Wilderness" went to the post office to get stamps for a mailing of 4,000 letters. When they requested stamps without the Flag, the teller had them wait. 20 minutes later they were interrogated by Chicago Police officers ran their IDs and asked if they had any warrants. They were then told to come back the next day, and interrogated further by a Federal Postal Inspector. All for stamps, mind you.
And this is just the beginning! Attorney General Jon Ashcroft is currently drafting a "sequel" to the Patriot act, which would allow for the citizenship to be stripped from American citizens, for them to be secretly jailed and without legal representation, to be possibly executed for 15 new acts of "Terrorism" (according to the ACLU), for witnesses of Terrorism to be barred from the media and the general public – to essentially block our first Amendment right of free speech and freedom of press. All of these things are in direct conflict with the Constitution of the United States. It would allow police to spy on civilians without limits, and without their consent.
Why not just burn the whole thing and start over? I came across what could be a draft by what I suspect to be secret members of the Inner order of our beloved nation. What follows is a transcription of the document found written on papyrus, with bronze scroll heads and a mysterious 11 pointed star at the bottom:
Watch T.V., Read Newspapers, Die!
A 4 point system of world domination and happiness via mind-free living.
by Chinóok & Mendes Dredelbaum
In this age of turmoil and constant stress, we feel it is necessary to push the people of the world into a new age. One in which the average citizen can be comfortable with their situation. The goal here is to let them be lulled into a mindframe not unlike that of a beautiful dream - where all cares are arbitrary and remote. This will do wonders for the World Economy and will bolster the illusion of civilization that seems to be fraying at the edges by many of our analysts. It is because of this that the following must go into effect immediately:
1. All citizens of the New Order over age 6 are required to attend a local high class shopping mall for a minimum of three hours a week. Coupons for Couture Boutiques will be mailed out in accordance with individual citizen paydays cited on their IRS forms. This will precipitate the penetration of high fashion to the middle class and serve as a breeding ground for future porn stars.
2. All citizens of the New Order under 12 years of age must watch a minimum of 50 hours of "Reality Television"* a week in order to condition themselves into uber-mensch, willing to humiliate those with the even the slightest flaw. Recognition of physical and emotional perfection is a must, i.e. those with flaws must be thrown off the island a la "Survivor". In addition to perfecting sloppy body image, this will also raise the level of priority of a great hair style and designer clothes. This rule combined with rule number 1 will create a mind share amongst out citizens that they must have the "latest and greatest", which will precipitate a magnificent domino effect on the local economy.
*"Reality Television" is quantified by the content of programming meant to subdue the viewer into a deep complacency, unable to distinguish the obvious differences between what is happening on screen and what is happening in actual reality, and involve themselves into the Jones's business and none of their own. For examples see "Joe Millionaire: a Study in Whorish Americanism" available from New Order Publications LLC.
3. A shit bag guy must be in the Book Suppository at all times. No shit must be thrown at the system. Those brave/stupid enough to disobey this simple rule will be subject to repeat beatings by the adopted muscular children of Rosie O'Donnell. Those who defy this rule on more than one occasion will be recruited into the government for future assassination.
4. Official religion of the state with be "Y" – Which will preach endless contemplation about this life or the possibility of the next without ever coming to any concrete conclusions. Thus, this religion will force the public into utter butter fuck and worship of proclaimed teen German Supergroup "Captain Lovely and the Gladtastabyas". The uber-mensch will be the protective order of "Y".
If one follows these 4 ideals perfectly, he/she shall be nigh guaranteed to do nothing but watch the tele, read newspapers and die…Happily. Let the brothers think over this.
Open your mouth, and close your eyes!
So let it be said, in this, the year 2003 E.V., 30 gilbers & 204 doubloons, that this proclamation be put into effect. Get yourself a big screen and relax!
And that was it… I've got to find these guys.
Alive and breathing,
c.a. todd

Model No.︰SHB1-WSB
Brand Name︰Sinobaler
Country of Origin︰China
Unit Price︰-
Minimum Order︰1 set
Sinobaler briquetting balers represent the latest in baling technology, and are the ideal solution to briquetting specific material like sawdust, chopped straw/hay, rice husks, and peanut shells – these materials are difficult to compact or transport (you simply cannot "tie" a bale of such loose material). One solution is to bale and bag them with a horizontal bagging baler. The other solution is to compress them into a hard "briquette" without any packing or strapping, and that's exactly what this machine does.
The regular shape and consistent hardness of the briquettes makes them easy to transport and stack, saving you time, space, and money. You can even burn some of them for fuel – sawdust briquettes for example. These briquetting balers feature stored-program controller PLC system and a hydraulic lifting door, which enables automatic operation from feeding to bale ejecting. Our briquetting balers are also smaller than you think, and can be mounted almost anywhere. They are widely used in animal feeding/bedding material factories, plant fertilizer factories, farms, etc.
Baling Application: sawdust, chopped straw/hay, rice husks, cotton seeds, peanut shells and other similar loose materials.
Choose from our existing models below, or contact us for a customized machine to meet your baling needs today.
PLC Control System
automates the operation and promotes accuracy.
Close-end Door
ensures firm briquetted bales.
Automatic Bale Ejecting System
enables labor-free bale ejecting
Automatic Feeding Conveyor is Optional
for continuous feeding material, and with the help of sensors and PLC, conveyor will automatically start or stop when the material below or above certain position on hopper. This enhances feeding speed and maximize throughput.
CE compliance

But don't worry. Pierce probably has another Bond in him. And Q's replacement looks to be none other than well, let's just say, "Now it's time for someone completely different."
But personnel changes, no matter how significant, will never stop the eternal Bond factory. If there'll always be an England, there'll always be a Bond. Hence this bold, declarative sentence at the end of the movie: "James Bond will return."
In fact, Bond flicks have returned steadily since 1962, when a young Sean Connery (the first Bond, for those of you unaware of the series' original Agent 007) beheld the salty-wet, bikini-clad Ursula Andress name of Honey Ryder emerging from the sea in "Dr. No."
In "The World Is Not Enough," little has changed in more than 36 years. Denise Richards, who has built her career as a nubile sex symbol without too much gray matter, is now Bond's latest pinup ally as Christmas Jones. She's hardly the world's greatest actor either. But we're meant to believe she's a nuclear weapons expert.
"The World Is Not Enough," which has something to do with the possible destruction of the Western world's biggest oil pipeline, oozes over with plot.
In addition to Christmas Jones, Bond (Brosnan in his third appearance) crosses paths with oil heiress Elektra King (Sophie Marceau), sinister terrorist Renard (Robert Carlyle) and double agent Valentin (Robbie Coltrane). And of course, Her Majesty's best agent attends the usual round of office meetings with Q (Llewelyn) and M (Judi Dench).
Making sense of Bond scenarios was never the point. The movie, like its 18 predecessors, is all about the sideshow. (Okay, Bondistas, I'm not counting those unofficial Bond films like "Never Say Never Again.") We're talking about girls, gadgetry, villains, international hot spots and, last but not least, saucy dialogue.
"Would you like to check my figures?" an attractive woman asks Bond, as he attends a significant meeting with a shady Swiss banker.
Naturally, she's referring to the financial records in her hands. And naturally so is Bond when he replies: "Oh, I'm sure they're perfectly rounded."
I'll spare you the exchange between Bond and Miss Moneypenny (Samantha Bond) on the subject of cigars.
The fact is, this is an enjoyable formula. "The World Is Not Enough" is simply a visit to familiar territory with that martini shaken, not stirred waiting at some out-of-the-way international bar.
There's a thrilling and wonderfully implausible boat race on the Thames. There's a joyride on the nose of an atomic bomb racing through a pipeline in Turkey. There's a great bungee stunt in Bilbao. And there's skiing in Azerbaijan. There is always skiing, it seems. And as we watch footage of two stuntmen pretending to be Bond and Elektra streaking down the slopes, we have to pretend it's really actors Brosnan and Marceau. And when the stars pause to catch their breath after a strenuous downhill run their hair still perfectly coiffed we smirk to ourselves. This is the world of James Bond; and if we don't believe, the whole fantasy will plunge into a crevasse.
THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (PG-13, 128 minutes) - Contains obscured nudity, extensive machine-gun deaths and risque dialogue. Area theaters.

Wind Energy Holding To Acquire CWP Renewables
Wind Energy Holding Co., Ltd., ('WEH' or 'the Company'), majority owned by the KPN Group and one of Thailand's and Southeast Asia's leading renewable energy companies, had announced that it has agreed to invest into CWP Renewables Pty., Ltd. ('CWP'), a leading renewable energy developer and asset manager in Australia, from Continental Wind Partners and Wind Prospect. WEH will also purchase 50% of CWP's Australian business, including its 800MW development pipeline, on which construction will start this year. The pipeline will continue to be developed by CWP Renewables which will be integrated with the WEH team to deliver and manage further projects across Asia.
The acquisition marks WEH's first international investment as it strives to become one of the world's leading renewable energy companies over the next decade. Combining WEH's existing capabilities with CWP's expertise and talent will further strengthen the Company, enabling it to accelerate its global growth, as well as the development of its pipeline in Thailand and Australia.
CWP has an outstanding global track record of renewable energy development, with more than two decades of experience in developing and managing 4,200 MW of installed capacity across 20 countries. Since entering the Australian market in 2007, it has successfully developed the 113 MW Boco Rock Wind Farm in 2014 and has established a highly attractive development pipeline of more than 800 MW.
Amongst its development pipeline is the 260 MW Sapphire Wind Farm which achieved State planning approval in 2013, Commonwealth planning approval in 2014, and was recently announced as the fifth and final winner of the ACT government's large-scale wind reverse auction. In addition to its development activities, CWP is also a leading asset manager, currently managing over 220 MW of wind power assets across two windfarms in Australia.
Mark Crandall, Chairman of the Executive Board at Continental Wind Partners LLC said: "Since founding Continental Wind Partners in 2007, we have successfully developed and operated a number of wind farms across Eastern Europe and Australia. Given WEH's strong track record and capabilities, it is an ideal partner to develop what is an exceptionally attractive and exciting Australian pipeline."
Emma Collins, Chief Executive Officer of Wind Energy Holding Co., Ltd. stated: "We are very excited with the investment in CWP – it is extremely complementary to our business and will significantly strengthen our development and asset management capabilities.
"The Australian market offers tremendous potential over the long-term and this is the opportune time to invest in the country, with increasing government support and positive moves around certificate pricing promoting the growth of the renewable industry. I look forward to working closely with CWP's management team as we seek to achieve our global aspirations."
Nop Narongdej, Chairman of the Board of Wind Energy Holding Co., Ltd. commented: "Following KPN Group's purchase of a majority shareholding in WEH, one of our core goals was to leverage and expand from our base in Thailand into attractive renewables markets, both in the region and globally. The investment into CWP and its development pipeline is the first of what we expect will be a number of global initiatives for the company, as we move into the next phase of our international growth plans."

Rosetta's Philae Lander Is In Trouble [Updated]• http://www.popsci.com
Update 1, 11:00 a.m. 11/14/2014
Faced with a missing lander and a limited battery life, ESA scientists are trying out a risky maneuver. Philae is deploying its drill today, in hopes of securing and analyzing at least one soil sample from the comet. The lander may be keeled over on its side, however, so the spinning 10-inch drillbit could make it do a cartwheel instead--which could end the mission or put the probe in a better position to receive sunlight.
If Philae is still alive after the drilling, ESA may pursue a few other last-ditch efforts to get the lander standing, including attempting to fire the thrusters and/or harpoons again, and/or moving the landing legs to try to bounce it to a sunnier locale.
The lander's solar panels are receiving a little sunlight, but it's not enough, and the battery could die anytime over the next few days.
The next time ESA will have an opportunity to communicate with Philae will be this evening. If the battery still has enough juice to send out a signal, scientists will have a clearer idea as to whether the soil analysis worked, and whether there's any hope of repositioning the probe.

ABSTRACT PREHISTORY The Himalayan foothills of the Indian sub-continent have yielded evidence humans having lived there around two million years ago.Although the earliest known dates for hominids in peninsular India are ca.
It is estimated that the sea level would have dropped sufficiently for creating such a connection on at least 17 occasions within the last 700,000 years.This phenomenon would have been caused by the rise and fall of the sea level due to cold/warm fluctuations in the global climate.The last separation from India would have occurred at about 7,000 BP.It is therefore possible that humans were present in Sri Lanka from at least as early as one million years ago.There are ancient coastal sands in the north and southeast of the island which could be as old as 250,000 BP or even 700,000-500,000 BP.
These deposits may contain evidence of human habitation, a prime research objective for the future.Another group of sediments that could yield remains of early hominids in Sri Lanka are the gem-bearing alluvial gravels of the Ratnapura District.These Ratnapura Beds are of different ages and have yet to be plotted and dated accurately.But they do contain remains of an Upper Pleistocene fauna, notably a hippopotamus with six incisor teeth, a rhinoceros which has been dated from elsewhere (Lunugala gem gravel) to ca. Associated with this fauna are stone artefacts comprising, typically, large choppers and flakes of quartz and chert, which have been assigned to the Ratnapura Industry.However, apart from a human calotte of indeterminate age from a gem pit near Ellawala, no hominid remains have been forthcoming from the Ratnapura Beds.The faunal remains, which come to light in the search for precious stones could well include hominids and closer scrutiny could well be a rewarding exercise.

Umbrella Tags
Umbrella Tags
Even the umbrella selling business requires tags for umbrella as well. Umbrella tags, offered by Swingtagsco.com.au, are not only used to display the price but also can be used for marketing purposes. Four other shapes of tags, other than umbrella shape, are available for the use by the umbrella manufacturers.
You may add full colored or CMYK colored tags, made with paper, cardboard, UV coated material or made with Vinyl material. As the umbrella is always used in wet conditions, the most suitable tag types are made either with UV coated material or Vinyl material so that it can sustain the moist and water wetness. Colorful tags may add beauty to the umbrella to help in its sale. If embossed or stamped printed tags are being used as the umbrella tags, it may increase the grip of the hand on umbrella. Tags made with full colors are efficacious and effective enough to attract the attention of shoppers and buyers.
The preferred material for the tags for Umbrellas is Vinyl as tags made with it are durable and long lasting in the rainy, moist and wet season with water proofing abilities. And if good and sharp colors are used for tags, made with Vinyl material, the outcome may be a shining and glowing colored tag.
The Custom umbrella tags are prepared by our team of highly trained, skilled and experienced workers so that cheap yet best quality tags are made up to satisfaction of our ultimate users. The printed tags are delivered 'free' throughout Australia and United States within stipulated time regardless of the size of the lot.

Internet Win of the Day: April 23
Just something I thought was awesome for reals …
Just got back from grocery shopping. Thanks for NOTHING, teenage store clerk.twitpic.com/clgv0w
— Rita Meade (@ScrewyDecimal) April 23, 2013
I selected this as today's Internet Win both because I never get carded anymore while my wife always does and, as Rita's avatar should make clear, this kid really was asleep at the switch. He or she would probably do well to never move to a job that depends heavily on tips.
Rita is a hilarious public librarian whom you can find on Twitter as @ScrewyDecimal ('nuf said) and on her site, screwydecimal.com. This is her second outright win, meaning she now has two points total and will be knocking Vulture's Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) out of the Top 10 when the new rankings are released next week. Unless of course Joe picks up another win himself in the next two days.
If that happens, well … let's start the insanity.


text: Now with added income New dividend policy approved 5 July 2017 Shareholders of the Martin Currie Asia Unconstrained Trust have overwhelmingly voted in favour of the proposed resolution to allow payment of dividends from capital. The final dividend for the financial year ended 31 March 2017 was approved by shareholders as 13.68p per ordinary share including 8.43p to be paid out of capital. The total annual dividend of 16.28p is an increase of over 110% on the previous financial year (7.75p) and represents a dividend yield of approximately 4.5%, based on the share price at close of business on 31 March 2017. The final dividend for the financial year ended 31 March will be paid on 11 August to shareholders on the register on 21 July 2017. Harry Wells, Chairman, commented: "It is the Board's intention to repeat the capital distribution in future years, to be paid on an annual basis along with the final dividend and set by reference to 2% of the prior year-end ex-income Net Asset Value (NAV). The Board believes that the new dividend policy benefits existing shareholders, whilst making the shares attractive to new buyers and appealing to retail investors, who will be able to participate in the potential for capital growth." There will be no change to the Company's investment policy. This offers a differentiated and unconstrained approach for investment in Asian markets. Since the mandate was adopted in August 2014, shareholder returns have exceeded the objective of delivering returns commensurate with Asian economic growth. Martin Currie Asia Unconstrained Trust reported its best annual return for five years earlier in the year. Important information *Source: Martin Currie, for the 12 months period to 31 March 2017. The net asset value is inclusive of income with dividends re-invested. The value of investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and is not guaranteed. An investor may not get back the amount originally invested. Investors may be subject to tax on their dividends. The yield is calculated using the dividend per share divided by the year end share price, share price as at 31 March 2016 was 364.5p. The majority of charges will be deducted from the capital of the company. This will constrain capital growth of the company in order to maintain the income streams. There is a risk to capital as a result of proposed change to dividend policy.

is floating a rumor that CNET (TechRepublic's parent company) is
shopping itself to potential buyers. Now, we've heard this rumor about
a thousand times before, usually involving Yahoo! or, god-willing,
Google. The latter is mostly wishful think on the parts of the
employees, the former on the parts of analysts, who have been
predicting the move for years.
These invariably turn out to be nothing, and are usually inspired by
misinterpreted rumbles that we're about to roll out a new property. It
happened with MP3.com, and we just rolled out the new TV.com and
This one feels a little more real, however, because of which properties
we rolled out, and who is supposedly looking to acquire us: Viacom.
Considering all the media-related sites CNET runs these days, getting
bought by Viacom would make a certain amount of sense. But, again,
these are mere rumors, and I've long since given up any hope of finally
cashing in my stock options for M&A-fueled riches. I'm not that

Apropos of the interview "Skilling India is akin to evangelising: Sanjeev Duggal, Centum Learning" (FE, February 8), it is true that the way things are playing out, the nation's growth agenda is directly getting aligned to the skills-level of its manpower.
Skill India to Start-up India
Apropos of the interview "Skilling India is akin to evangelising: Sanjeev Duggal, Centum Learning" (FE, February 8), it is true that the way things are playing out, the nation's growth agenda is directly getting aligned to the skills-level of its manpower. However, a lot of work remains to be done, especially in finding people who need skills training. Remember, while it is easy to find and skill an unskilled person in metro cities and even in tier-2 towns, the challenge lies in reaching out to the remotest parts of the country. Clearly, government bodies such as the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and private organisations such as Centum Learning need to make efforts to reach 'media-dark' states in the country, where TV and print reach only about 20% of the population, and where internet and smartphones are urban phenomena. At the same time, we have to make efforts towards changing the 'poor country cousin' image of a skills-based career. Let's not forget that in the developed West, which we hold in high regard, even if a PhD student decides to pursue the vocation of a cab driver, he/she will still be considered a respected member of the society, unlike in India. Lastly, we must not forget that Skill India and Start-up India share great synergies. In fact, both complement each other. Start-up India is not about only Flipkart and Myntra, it's about a plumber setting up a plumbing business; a carpenter opening a carpentry shop. Skill India can train people, who can then join those small start-ups and make them successful. Another good idea is to skill people to become entrepreneurs on their own terms and conditions.

Wish cars emitted oxygen
This can be equated to as one of the most outrageous statements from the corporate world. "CSE slams Jaguar Land Rover; equates claim to cars being 'air purifiers'" (FE, February 8). Slamming luxury car company Jaguar Land Rover for calling Delhi air sucked in by its cars 'far dirtier' than what they emit, environmental advocacy group Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has said this amounts to equating cars with 'air-purifying machines'. Clearly, amid raging concerns over toxic emissions, and a lot of which are a by-product of vehicles, such statements from car companies just don't make sense. In fact, the statement is kiddish. For the record, it was Jaguar Land Rover's CEO Ralph Speth who, on the side-lines of the Auto Expo, said that the latest EU-VI regulation schemes have got technical features which can clean the air in Delhi. And for the record, it is Jaguar Land Rover's diesel cars which cannot be registered in Delhi NCR until March 31, since their engine capacity is higher than 2000cc and fall under the Supreme Court interim ban. This is nothing but an attempt to mislead the public and policymakers. We expect other automotive industry players, rather than making such statements, will acknowledge public health concerns associated with toxic diesel emissions and will make efforts towards leapfrogging to BS-VI emissions standards by April 2020.

Luiz Carlos Trabuco's standing as one of the finest bankers in recent years in Brazil was confirmed by a recent announcement that he would be taking over as the chairman of Bradesco's board. He took over the position from an equally legendary Brazilian banker, Lazaro Brandao. Having been in the banking industry for close to eight decades, Lazaro Brandao saw it fit to call an end to his illustrious career in October 2017.
The decision to have Luiz Carlos Trabuco take over as the next chairman was largely unchallenged as he has for the last few years served as Lazaro Brandao's deputy on the board as well as the president of the bank. However, with Trabuco now confirmed as the chairman of the board, the position of bank president has once again become vacant. While there is little doubt that taking the reins at such a huge bank could be somewhat intimidating for the incoming president, he/she will take heart in the fact that Luiz Carlos Trabuco will be there to offer guidance.
Read more on g1.globo.com
Bradesco is one of the largest financial institutions in Latin America. The $400-billion company has since 2008 been the second largest private lender in Brazil, having previously been the largest one for more than five decades. The bank has a number of subsidiaries working in the key segments of the financial sector with the most prominent ones being Bradesco Seguros and Bradesco Vida e Previdencia. Given the size and the complexity of operations at Bradesco, the bank typically prefers to select presidents from among the senior executives that have been at the bank for a long time. This ensures that whoever is selected to take over in the position is entirely green as he/she at least has a competent understanding of the bank's culture. This strategy has been followed when appointing each of the bank's last three presidents and is again expected to be followed during the current succession process.
Some of the names being touted to become the next president are quite encouraging. Among these names is Mauricio Minas, who currently serves as the chief overseer of technology at the bank. Fellow vice president and chief risk officer, Alexander Gluher is also seen as a key contender. Current Bradesco Seguros president, Octavio Lazari is also hoping to follow the same journey to the top as Luiz Carlos Trabuco did. Lastly, retail banking expert, Jose Pancini is also seen as having a strong chance. All of these top candidates are currently vice presidents and have been with the bank for more than two decades.
The new president at Bradesco will not be selected for another four months. The appointment is expected to be done 30 days before the shareholders meeting set for March 2018. Until then, therefore, Luiz Carlos Trabuco will continue serving in his current capacity as president of the Brazilian lender. He will at the same time also fully assume the responsibilities of board chairman, thus following in the footsteps of his mentor, Lazaro Brandao who also concurrently held both positions for a few years.
The incoming president will find the most accommodating business climate in recent years as the Brazilian economy continues to recover following the worst recession in the South American nation in a century. The challenging economic climate had forced most banks in the country, including Bradesco to lower their interest rates according to economia.estadao.com.br. While such moves ensured Bradesco's continued survival, they also placed significant pressure on its margins. Hopefully, in the coming months, however, the incoming manager will be able to boost the bank's profitability significantly.

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Patience is a virtue, and a virtue is something great to have. Knowing you Aries you like having great things, so why not embrace the beauty of tolerance and increase your inner strength and self-respect.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
No matter if you are in uncomfortable circumstances or not it is always best to use an even temper and sound mind. When you deal with life in such a way where you are balanced you will calm your energy which will also relax the people's energy who are around you.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
It is better to save money now as opposed to borrowing it later. Even if you spot a sale on something you want very much, if you do not need the item then leave it on the shelf! Sacrifice today and be happy for it tomorrow. This way you will feel rested when you do not have to borrow from a bank or even a friend.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Give what you can but do not give to those who are not deserving of it and especially if you are offering you heart to somebody who does not appreciate it. It is best to let go and let life lead you to mate who will respect what you are offering. Same thing goes with your job. If you are at a position where you are not happy then perhaps it is best to look for something more suitable. Of course if your job is really not so horrible and you are only complaining because you feel you are not appreciated, then weigh the pros and cons before you make the decision to leave, because when it comes to career you never want to give up something great just to land something worse.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Do not get stuck on the 'should haves' and 'should not haves'. Instead say to yourself "even though I did, or didn't life will still go on and I still have free will to change my destiny at any time."
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
You will be surprised by somebody who you have not seen or heard of in a while. When they contact you treat them with respect. Even if you do like the person and could not care less if they contacted you, still treat them the way you would like to be treated. Of course you do not have to share your precious time with them but you should keep in mind how you would like to be treated if you reached out and contacted somebody who could not care less if they heard from you.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Say what is on your mind. Do not be afraid to speak up be heard. It does not matter if it concerns issues of the heart, career, or finances simply express what you are feeling. In the end you will have gotten it off your chest and you will feel better for it.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
There is a fine line between rude and crude. Do not cross it, because this week if you do then you will have a rude/crude awakening. To be certain that you do not create unnecessary problems do not overact, gossip or take things personally, use any situation as a learning curve and think with logic before you respond with emotion.
Sagittarius (November 22- December 21)
Save your money because you will want the extra cash for either vacation or an expense. It is wise to save anyway, but this summer if you save with discipline then you will win big time in the end.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19)
When asked your opinion, no matter how sensitive the situation, answer honestly. Sometimes people would rather an honest answer as opposed to a safe answer. Even if they would rather a safe answer, but you give a straight forward answer, then at least they will know where you are coming from and will know that you are not a sugar coating type.
Aquarius (January 20-February 19)
Finish all tasks in a timely manner. Putting things off until tomorrow will not only hold you back from getting important things done, but it will also hold back your life from progressing.
Pisces (February 20-March 20)
Let people hold whatever opinions about you that they have. You cannot change what they think. Nevertheless you can change the way you think, so do not think about them for another minute.

"Rampage" Jackson vs. Mauricio 'Shogun' Rua to Go Down in 2012?
If Lorenzo Fertitta has anything to say about it, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson will finish out his UFC contract by facing Mauricio "Shogun" Rua. The news was first reported by Yahoo! Sports, while it is expected to be confirmed on UFC Tonight.
"An interesting fight we'd like to make, one we've talked about, would be him and 'Shogun.' I think that would be an interesting fight," Fertitta said. "They're both coming off a loss, they have a history and they both expressed interest in the fight in the past."
Jackson has been very outspoken in regards to leaving the UFC over the past few days, taking most of his anger out on his Twitter account. "Rampage" and Rua fought back in 2005, with "Shogun" claiming a victory in PRIDE.

Stromness Shopping Week is the longest running festival in Orkney. The event was started in 1949 by the newly formed Stromness and West Mainland Chamber of Commerce to attract shoppers to the Burgh. There was no Shopping Week Queen in the first year, and the festival was opened by Provost George Robertson. It was reported in the 'Orcadian' at the time that 4000 people turned out to watch the Saturday night parade and the streets had been decorated with 900 flags.
A committee from days gone by
Knife throwers at the golf club
Stromness Shopping Week is a time when the community all pulls together to ensure a good time is had by all. It's a time when Stromnessians who have made their home elsewhere come home to enjoy and participate in the festivities.
The week starts with a service in the Church on the third Sunday of July and the official opening ceremony is held on the Monday when the elected Shopping Week Queen is crowned. This takes place in the Town House Garden in the town centre in front of a large crowd of onlookers. This starts the week of fun. For full details, the Stromness Shopping Week Programme is available for sale in the run up to, and during, Stromness Shopping Week.
Over the years there have been many guest visitors to Stromness Shopping Week. One of our regular, and very popular, guests are the Scalloway Jarl Squad. Every year there is also a different band to entertain us at the Pierhead and at indoor and outdoor dances.
On the 12th November 2007 the Stromness Shopping Week Association officially became a registered charity under the Charities and Investment Act (Scotland) 2005 and was assigned the Scottish Charity No SC038922 on the Scottish Charities Register

TV Ratings: 'Hell's Kitchen' premiere, 'NCIS' repeats lead Tuesday, while 'Smash' rises

By: Jobin0003.13.2013 @ 5:54 PM
Why aren't networks trying to take advantage of the schedule lulls by counter-programming actual new episodes?
Wouldn't that likely provide a good chance that new viewers would give the show a try, if their usual show is on repeat?
Has someone tried this before? It just seems odd that everyone decides to take the same non-holiday weeks off and air repeats.
By: dan03.13.2013 @ 8:45 PM
Jobin00 – In this particular week, nobody would do that because of the Daylight Savings Time Effect, which has been minor because of the number of shows in repeats. In general, it's the reason why, for example, The CW premiered its new shows in October this year, to get away from September premieres on other networks and set up some new episodes to go against repeats elsewhere.
But it's honestly more the cable model. And cable often tries to set up new programming as counter to network lulls…
By: Stuckey03.14.2013 @ 12:34 AM
I have to somewhat agree with JOBIN00. AMC or FX should be trying something after the premieres of in January on FX and February of AMC. It just seems weird that Mad Men or something else doesn't come back earlier, but those are hung up by waiting for TWD to end. And I'm sure HBO is waiting for Girls to end before becoming nothing but GoT and Veep.

Your Captain
Captain Peter has his Masters Captain's license through the United States Coast Guard. In addition to being a water enthusiast, he is an avid racquetball player and also enjoys downhill skiing, biking and an occasional round of golf.
Having grown up on Lake Minnetonka in Minnesota much of his life, Captain Peter is now a full-time resident of Florida. He has done both sail and motor boating throughout many parts of the world.
In addition to numerous locations in the lower United States, he has fished in remote corners of Canada, Alaska, Costa Rica, Micronesia, Europe, throughout the Caribbean, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. He is a PADI certified SCUBA diver and has done a variety of day and night dives.
Along with providing backwater adventures around Sanibel and Captiva Islands, Captain Peter relishes spending time with his wife, Barb, two sons, a daughter and their mates, six grandchildren and a great network of friends. "My motto for life, " says Peter, "is to live each day as if it's your last, and enjoy every minute of the ride. And, if things ever get too intense, have a salad, eat a peach and strike a smile."
The Boat
Parker is one of the premier and reputable boat builders in the world. It is unique in that it handles well in all types of weather and wave conditions, yet it only draws a foot and half of water. This allows for getting into backwater areas that few boats of similar size can access. The boat has a spacious ten-foot beam (width) so it's easy to maneuver around.
There is a covered T-top and dodger up front providing shade and shelter from inclement weather if it arises. There is no head (bathroom) but if you are not shy, the half bath is always available. Additionally, we can always find a spot to park or hit a facility if nature demands it. Captain Peter is also a member of Boat U.S. and has partner Guides should additional assistance ever be needed.

That was then...this is now! FeaturedWritten by Brittany

I have worked at Z93 for almost 14 years. I am grateful every day for the career that I have been blessed with! When I started working at Z93 back in 2004, I was in great shape. I was 23 years old and I was teaching dance, I enjoyed working out at the gym, and I was very active. Life changed dramatically when my sole focus became my radio career. It started with working 3rd shift, which was a major change in my life schedule. After a couple of years I switched to 2nd shift and four years later, I changed my schedule again to host the morning show in 2007! That was hard on my body and it seemed to take me a long time to get used to the eating and sleeping habits of each shift change. Add in some major health problems along the way, and before you know it...I had gained 80 pounds over 13 years. I'm still not exactly sure how I let that happen, but I did. I guess it was the simple fact that eating fast food, anything that I could heat up in a microwave or anything fast, was easy for a girl on the go. I also did my fair share of going out clubbing with friends and enjoying cocktails! :) That leads to eating more bad food and making poor nutrition choices. It's a vicious cycle. One that too many of us are far too familiar with, unfortunately.
I suffered a traumatic brain injury in January 2017. Countless doctor visits for therapy and healing meant getting weighed a lot. That was the first time I had weighed myself in a long time. And it was like a punch to the gut each time I got on that scale. And finally, I had a tough conversation with my doctor about my need to lose some weight in order to be more healthy. It made me face the truth about where I had ended up. Deep down I knew it, but when you hear it from a healthcare professional...somehow it becomes real. It was time to do something major because I had been given a second chance at life. I couldn't waste another minute...
I joined NuYou Weight Loss and More in February 2017 and in just 9 months I turned my life around. 80 pounds gone and over 80 inches melted away! The programs at NuYou are incredible and the support is even better. Before NuYou, nothing worked and I felt very defeated. I just felt stuck. Two of my friends showed me that their lives had improved because of NuYou and I wanted to be the next person to change my life. So, I did! (see more below)

Me and Jen 9-1-16 (Before) Me and Jen 12-31-17 (After) Oktoberfest 2016 (Before) Oktoberfest 2017 (After)
I look at these pictures from before the weight loss program with NuYou, and I honestly have a hard time believing that these are pictures of ME. I feel a lot of emotions. Sadness, embarrassment, anger, but most of all...I feel free. Thanks to NuYou Weight Loss and More, I'm not that person anymore. I'm no longer unhealthy. I'm stronger, I'm confident, I'm happy, I feel sexy, and most importantly...I am HEALTHY! My only wish is that I would have done this sooner. I can't get back the time that I wasted, but I can move forward knowing that I made the best decision for myself, my husband, and my family.
I firmly believe that it doesn't matter what size you are. If YOU are comfortable with who you are and YOU feel healthy, and YOU are at peace with yourself, more power to you! I was not at peace with myself...but I am now.

Testosterone is what keeps a man strong, muscular, youthful and vibrant. However, testosterone levels decrease as men age. Here are a few of our favorite products for supporting the body's natural production of testosterone.
Research shows this natural plant extract can increase luteinizing hormone by as much as 70% and thereby elevate testosterone production by 40%. The normal dosage is 200-750 mg per day using a form of tribulus standardized for at least 20% protodioscin. Excellent products include Allmax TribX90 and Fitness Labs Tribulus Ultra. Find all Tribulus products here.
DHEA is a natural hormone precursor to testosterone. As you age, your body produces less and less DHEA. Supplemental DHEA can often help bring testosterone into the normal range. A typical dosage for men is 25-50 mg per day. Try Lindberg DHEA 50 mg. Find all DHEA products here.
ZMA combines special forms of zinc and magnesium aspartate with vitamin B-6. Two studies show it can raise total and free testosterone up to 33% in athletes. Many bodybuilders feel that ZMA improves recovery from strenuous training sessions. ZMA is usually taken at bedtime and many users report that it helps them sleep better. Fitness Labs ZMA is our best seller. ISS Research/One Brands ZMA or Universal ZMA Pro are other good choices. Find all ZMA products here.

Prayer for Christlikeness
I've often wondered what my purpose as a Christian was. Have you? Well the Lord answered that question recently at a bible study I attended. Our purpose in life as a Christian is to be like Jesus. And the more time we spend with God is the more we will become in his likeness. Here is a prayer I read and prayed recently that speaks exactly to that:
Dear Jesus, help me to spread your fragrance everywhere I go. Flood my soul with your sppirit and life: penetrate and possess my whole being so completely that all my life may be only a radiance of yours. Shine through me and be so in me that everyone with whom I come into contact may feel your presence within me. Let them look up and see no longer me – but only Jesus. Amen. – John Henry Cardinal Newman
Let us all strive to be more like Jesus each day. Let all that we do be for his glory and not ourselves. Let people see his goodness in our lives and let us not keep it to ourselves but share it with others, so that they may receive the promise God has for all of us.
Have a Blessed holiday season. May God bless you all richly.
- David Hemphill — 5 December 2005
- Very nice, Yannick. I appreciate you sharing your prayers and thoughts with us. They are food for the soul. Keep it up.
- Yannick (Author) — 5 December 2005
- Thanks David. You keep up the good work over at SparrowStyle. Also it's nice to have you onboard at Godbit. Take care and God Bless.
- Steve Dye — 21 December 2005
- Yannick, this prayer and your comments give courage to my heart.
To live in such close proximity with Jesus that we look like Him … sound like Him … and as this prayer suggests … even smell like Him … is a difficult, challenging and wonderful way to live, and I wouldn't want it any other way.
May your relationship with Him be so close that you lose track of where you end and He begins. May you be one with Jesus.
- Yannick (Author) — 21 December 2005
- Thanks Steve. Your comment has encouraged me also. Yes it certainly will be difficult and challenging, but God certainly gives us all we need to make it through.
Thanks for stopping by Steve. I love your site by the way. May your relationship with God grow each day also. May he Bless you and Keep you and make his face to shine upon you.

The New Mexico state legislative session is a "short" or 30 day session this year. Although this session is going to be mostly focused on the state budget, the NM Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, with our statewide partners, are following the bold leadership of our roots in the Clergy Consultation Service and calling for abortion to be decriminalized in New Mexico!
In 1973, the Roe v. Wade decision made legal abortion the law of the land. But many states, New Mexico included, kept old language on their criminal statutes that continues to make it difficult or impossible low-income women, women of color, young adults and women living in rural communities to obtain reproductive health care including abortion care.
We're disappointed that the Governor didn't place HB 16 – Decriminalization of Abortion, on the agenda, but your work to help us reach our goal of 5000 names on our petition, means we're ready to build momentum now for a successful 2019 session.
Other Bills we supported
HM 9/SM 3 Explore Medicaid Buy-in Plan Both passed the House and Senate. These memorials will create a task force, convened by the interim Health & Human Services Committee to seek input from stakeholders and the community to explore a plan that would open up Medicaid for any state resident to buy (even if they are not eligible for it now). Read more here.
HJR 1 Permanent Funds for Early Childhood Education, is one of the smartest investments we can make in our kids and in our state. The joint resolution would help ensure that the next generation of New Mexicans is healthy and successful by expanding early childhood education initiatives and services across the state, including: funding for universal pre-kindergarten; expanding access to family services/resources; increasing home visiting; increasing access for childcare assistance; promoting professional development for teachers; and assuring accountability and evaluation of implemented programs. Advocates have been working hard for eight years to pass this important legislation. Although the resolution didn't pass, this year was the most successful! You can learn more about HJR 1 here AND read about this year's efforts here.
Bills we opposed
HB 56, a bill that would, regardless of their circumstances, force young people under the age of 17 to notify a parent or guardian before they could access a safe and legal abortion was tabled by House Consumer & Public Affairs Committee in a 3-2 vote on Saturday February 3.Three additional anti-abortion bills were never scheduled for a hearing!

Man seeks new trail in murder, dismemberment of New Orleans dancer; cites mental illness
GRETNA, La. – A man convicted in the death and dismemberment of a Bourbon Street dancer is seeking a new trial, citing a history of mental illness and three failed requests for a mistrial during his proceedings.
Terry Speaks is scheduled to be sentenced to life in prison Thursday in the 2013 death of Jaren Lockhart.
But multiple news agencies report that in a motion filed Monday, public defender John Benz argues that Judge Stephen Grefer should have asked Speaks about possible mental illness when the defendant sought to represent himself on the trial's opening day. Benz's motion says Speaks has been hospitalized for mental illness, including a suicide attempt.
Speaks and his girlfriend, Margaret Sanchez, are accused of cutting up Lockhart's body and dumping the remains along the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

There's more than one way to kill a dragon. This complete collection includes four novellas each featuring a different force of nature and a different kind of strategy. Whether it's through strength of arms or clever wit or even force of will, it takes a special kind of hero to save the world from fantasy's most powerful monsters.
"Here are five excellent stories of varied and inventive character by an author who remembers what dragons are for. Each dragon and each hero is unique and well-drawn, and the collection shows that the genre of dragonslaying tales has plenty of room for novelty and creativity without discarding its fundamental axioms."

When I'm sad, like tonight, I listen to sad music. It helps to feel the true emotion. I never want to not feel sad otherwise I will never get better. I am the type of person who likes to hide behind a brick wall and put on a happy face, however you cannot do that with grieving. I cannot pretend I am happy. I cannot pretend that he's not here. I have to be me and I am okay with that.
I did not learn how Scott died today. I did not get my hopes up that I would hear back from the ME. I will deal with that when the time comes.
The unknown really hurts. I wish I had resolution. I am ready to know, but will have patience and faith knowing that he went peacefully. Until I know otherwise.

i like this brand very much bt i dont like this product becoz it is very slow phone n not work properly.......................... :(
its superb handset is awesome and its available in low range but dont go for dual sim as some of my friends are fasing problems
Superb Phone in an amazing low price...Sound is awesome .evrything is perfect...
mp4 not working in this phone baddddddddd 2690 the best mobile i ever seen i liked in this mobile speed internet
RHL, 13 Sep 2011dont go for this phone, this is another bad mobile from nokia.. what a shame. i bought one and... moreis it the original one?
Facing some problems
1. Not able to move data from received folders
2. Not able to send data to any other phone via bluetooth.(There is no option as send)
3. Touch is not so good..but working.
4. Loudspeaker option is not working fine.
Nokia Fan, 12 Sep 2011Please don't buy this phone, i just picked it up a couple of days back, it hangs all the time.... moreYou have gone mad this mobile is gorgeous in a low price and by the way it does not hang at all
dont go for this phone, this is another bad mobile from nokia.. what a shame. i bought one and after 4 days the touch screen stopped to work. software problems are also there like it hangs many times and music in ear piece is just worst.
all around performance is good but company should develop 3G network.In white colour it is awesome.
Nokia can still develop the C3-01 into a dual sim phone equipt with S40 or S60. With the advantage of wifi 5mega pixel camera with LED flash touch and type features and a handy slim bar type phone there are still a lot of users who would like to have this kind of phone than a bulky and missing a lot of options like the Nokia C2-02
the nokia c2 02 is good and the touch mood is good and i want to buy it now
i think this is a good phone but the internal memory of this phone is only 10 mb so please increase the meomory
Please don't buy this phone, i just picked it up a couple of days back, it hangs all the time. the soft on screen keys almost never work. it takes a hard press like 15 times to get it working. when you go into settings it never can come out of it, you have to hit the call end button to come out. when i am scrolling through my contacts, it starts to self select any contact where i have pressed a little hard, and i can never go BACK, i always have to hit the end key and then start the process over again.
The phone hardware wise is really nice, what it needs is a better software. Being a nokia user my whole life, i am sorely disappointed with this one.
I think this is a good model but there are not gps system and 3g system.so please devloped this model features and built in gps system and 3g system.
its a good phone with smooth slide and easy swap sim and nice texture of its body.
its a good phone with smooth slide and easy swap sim`s and a nice body texture.


text: Second volume of films from an undisputed master of world cinema. In 'Kapurush' (1965), Amitabha Roy's (Soumitra Chatterjee) taxi has a breakdown on the way to Hanshimara where he is to collect material for a film story. He is offered hospitality for the night by Bimal Gupta (Haradhan Bannerjee), a local tree planter who does not know that his wife Karuna (Madhabi Mukherjee) is Amitabha's former lover. During his stay Amitabha realizes that Bimal and Karuna's marriage cannot be a happy one and he wants to take Karuna away and atone for his past betrayal. In 'Mahapurush' (1965), a fake Holy man, Birinchi Baba (Charuprakash Ghosh), is adopted by a wealthy man who wants a suitable husband for his daughter to marry. His wary friends, however, soon decide to set a trap to expose the charlatan in their midst. Finally, in 'Joi Baba Felunath' (1978), Feluda (Soumitra Chatterjee) is a sharp and witty detective from Calcutta. His cousin Topshe (Siddharta Chatterjee) and friend Lalmohan Ganguly (Santosh Dutta) visit Benaras, a town on the banks of the Ganges where they meet a Bengali family. After learning about Feluda's detective skills, the head of the family invites Feluda to his home and tells him about the theft of an idol of Ganesha, the elephant God. Feluda promises to help the family to find the idol, but the mystery deepens when the sculptor who was sculpting the Durga idol for the Durga Puja festival is murdered.

Wild Woodland Toys store InformationWild Woodland Toys has been a trusted MyShopping merchant for over 4 years with 800 products for you to browse and shop from.
Wild Woodland Toys is a bright and vibrant retail business based on a farm in regional SA, owned and operated by just me! I am a mum to 2 beautiful little girls, Georgia and Hayley. They are my inspiration and constant joy.
Together, with my husband, we reside on a sheep and cropping property. I am truly grateful that our children have the opportunity to play and discover in the great outdoors and see the stars at night. Our days are busy with farming duties and they love helping dad, feeding lambs, collecting eggs from our gorgeous chooks, riding in the tractor and attending their school of 25 students.
The Story
After the birth of our second child in 2011, I began to take notice of the massive pile of plastic toys acquired in the space of 3 years. The ones that sucked batteries dry and were too expensive to constantly replace, sat in a discarded pile. What I was really seeing was how a shiny, plastic, singing, flashing, whirring, battery exhausting toy took away every ounce of imagination my children had. They just stared at it in wonderment. These toys should be labelled no imagination required'.
I had a small collection of old wooden toys I found in second-hand shops and games my grandfather had made tucked away in a cupboard so these came out and oh wow, the difference they made! Georgia actually played' with them!
I embarked on a journey of discovering and then sourcing affordable wooden toys that inspired a child's imagination. Along the way I discovered so many other families on the same wavelength as myself. It just seemed natural to take the next step and open up a little at home business which, of course, over the last 4 years evolved into Wild Woodland Toys.
My Vision
To provide an alternative to the mass produced plastic, battery operated, children's toys found in the mainstream shopping centres. Toys that are easily broken, become disinteresting and discarded into landfill.
My mission is to inspire a child's imagination through the use of beautiful, unique and quality wooden toys. Ones that don't need batteries. Toys that educate and allow them to experiment, explore and learn new skills. Only then to be stored away and handed to the next generation.
I aim to provide a high quality range that's affordable, sustainable and creates everlasting memories of imagination fuelled delight and happiness.
My goal is to stay at home with my children in these precious years by earning a reasonable income through doing what I love and having loads of fun along the way!
Into the future
I am delighted and grateful to have built up a strong network of customer database and a loyal following through Social Media and the hundreds of SA Markets I have done. Through hard work and hard times you have all bought a smile with your wonderful feedback, kind words and purchases. During tough financial times on the farm it has been Wild Woodland Toys income that has placed food on our table. Without you, this business does not exist.
There is never a dull moment here and I look forward to bringing you many more exciting products and announcements.
