3 out of 4 stars
Share This Review
Who told you that you were naked? is a non-fiction genre written by William E. Combs and published by the Carpenter's son publishing in 2016.This book revolves around the concept of sin and death, faith in God and general Christian life.
Often I would ignore the introduction of a book, but for this one I think the writer did a good job by starting off the book on a much friendlier note, where he narrates some events during his growing up years and even more intriguing when the writer managed to weave in, the title of the book "Who told you that you were naked"?
Still in the introduction he managed to briefly outline the chapters of the book, thus just with the introduction one is made aware of what to expect in the full book.
Cruising through the chapters, the writer gives vivid description of events during creation and goes beyond to talk about activities in the Garden of Eden, the home of the first couple on earth. His perfect analytical skills are sure means to whet readers appetite and often times one may even feel as if he/she witnessed those creation events personally.
Just before chapter one ends, he makes readers understand that the Lord God put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and ordered them to subdue the earth.
In the Garden, the couple had the privilege to be visited by Jehovah God himself and they enjoyed his visits until one day when the cunning serpent came to deceive the woman about God's instructions on the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
She thus gave in to the temptation of plucking and eating from the fruit of this tree and later gave some to her husband. As soon as the man ate his portion of the fruit then both of them had their eyes opened. Immediately this happened the couple lost the intimate relationship they used to enjoy with the Lord. This is because that very afternoon when the Lord came round for His usual visit, the couple realizing for the first time that they were both naked went to hide from the presence of the Lord.
The Lord as he approached kept calling out Adam's name but Adam after several name calls responded by saying "I heard you coming and went to hide because I am naked"
The Lord God then inquired, "Who told you that you were naked".
Adam and his wife then started the blame game right in the presence of God. They were therefore thrown out of their beautiful home for disobeying God's instructions. According to the author in chapter two page 33, the couple from this instance experienced spiritual and relational death.
The writer thus gave accounts on some events that transpired while the couple was out of the Garden of Eden. It was made known that they had children, Cain and Abel and the respective sacrifices that they both rendered to God. Mr. Combs also gave a contemporary interpretation of events that occurred throughout the chapters.
The author has a unique way of moving readers along, he would quote scripture and provide the full message of the scripture in-text, this makes it easier for readers to follow the story through and makes reading very smooth. Through this act I find my long lost scripture from the write up which is Romans 5:12. I had a paraphrased idea of this scripture but I had forgotten where exactly in the Bible it could be found. He has a perfect skill of merging both old and new testament making it easier and possible for readers to relate events in both testaments. He is also known to use very fine language with very rich vocabulary. His style of referring to and appreciating his wife at several points in the write up is worth emulating by other couples.
The book is very organized and well written, however getting to the end there were some few spelling mistakes. For instance in chapter ten page 176, the writer uses "heal" instead of "heel" in the context of the man bruising the head of the serpent and the serpent bruising the heel of the man. Also in the same chapter page 191, in the in-text scripture Genesis 4:7, the writer uses sin is "couching" instead of sin is "crouching ".
He tries to make the book very interesting thus at several points he gave accounts of his personal experience concerning an issue. This is not bad however, I feel it should be minimized, just a few of such may be well tolerated by readers.
Finally I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars based on the fact that Mr. Combs managed to sweep me off my feet with his humorous writing style as well as all other factors I have spoken about before.
I will therefore recommend this book for every serious Christian and anybody who wants to overcome sin and to have a deeper walk with the Lord.

LONDON – The family of physicist Stephen Hawking expects him to recover fully from a chest infection that has left him hospitalized, Cambridge University said Tuesday.
Hawking "was being kept in observation" at Addenbrooke's hospital after being admitted Monday.
"He is comfortable and his family is looking forward to him making a full recovery," the university said in a statement.
It was not immediately clear whether the scientist's condition had actually improved or whether the family was merely basing its remarks on hopes for his improvement.
The hospital declined to comment, referring all calls to the university.
Hawking, 67, gained renown for his work on black holes and has remained active despite being diagnosed at age 21 with ALS, (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), an incurable degenerative disorder also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
Hawking has been almost entirely paralyzed for years and communicates through an electronic voice synthesizer activated by his fingers.
Hawking has searched for a major goal of physics — a "unified theory" — to solve contradictions between Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, which explains the laws of gravity that control the motion of large objects like planets, and the Theory of Quantum Mechanics, which deals with subatomic particles.
"A complete, consistent unified theory is only the first step: our goal is a complete understanding of the events around us, and of our own existence," he wrote in "A Brief History of Time," his best-selling book published in 1988.
In the sequel "The Universe in a Nutshell," published in 2001, Hawking looked into concepts such as supergravity and the possibility of a universe with 11 dimensions.
"He is amazingly resilient," said Andrew Fabian, the head of the Royal Astronomical Society and a professor of astronomy at Cambridge. "He goes around the world — he does more traveling than most of us. … And he just seems unstoppable. It's truly amazing."
Hawking did announce last year that he would no longer hold his post as Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, a title that 18th-century physicist Isaac Newton once had. Because the university said Monday that Hawking intended to continue working as Emeritus Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, Fabian said that he thinks Hawking will "carry on and do just the same."
The chest infection, which Hawking has been fighting for several weeks, had caused him to cancel an appearance at Arizona State University on April 6.

Whether you are looking to buy a home or investment property, chances are you're looking to purchase a home that will increase in value over time — preferably quickly so you can sell it at a profit down the road.
In February 2016, National Association of Realtors® released it's Quarterly Report, and San Diego was one of the five most expensive housing markets in the fourth quarter of 2015. Here is the list of five most expensive housing markets.
1. San Jose, $940,000
2. San Francisco, $781,600
3. Honolulu, $716,600
4. Anaheim-Santa Ana, $708,700
5. San Diego, $546,800.
Out of these 5 Markets, San Diego ranked the fastest in price appreciation and ranked 24th overall nationally.
The main challenge for home buyers in San Diego so far in 2016 continues to be insufficient supply. Demand has held steady during the winter months. Serious buyers should be prepared to act fast, and remain in close communication with a Buyers Agent to deploy a negotiation strategy that fits their budget. Even in these typically slower winter months, listings in affordable price ranges are going under contract quickly.

As the scheming Sister Clarice, pitching a vision of virtual resurrection to her monotheistic acolytes on Gemenon, Polly Walker upstages the brooding male anti-heroes (Eric Stoltz, Esai Morales) as this dense Battlestar Galactica prequel returns to finish up its first season. This sci-fi parable, located at a deadly crossroads of politics, religion and futuristic technology, is for hardcore genre fans, a lot darker and heavier than the Syfy norm these days. -- from Matt Roush

Draft legislation on further devolution for Scotland
23 January 2015
The UK Government has published a command paper with draft clauses on further devolution for Scotland.
In September 2014, the people of Scotland voted to remain part of a United Kingdom with a united future and the Prime Minister invited Lord Smith of Kelvin to oversee and deliver cross-party agreement on the shape of improved and enhanced devolution for Scotland.
On 27 November 2014 Lord Smith delivered an agreement reached unanimously between all five main Scottish political parties on more powers for the Scottish Parliament. This is the first time all five have participated in a devolution process.
The draft clauses published in this command paper are the next stage in delivering that commitment and this draft legislation shows how the measures included in the Agreement would look in law.
There isn't enough time before the next UK General election for this Government to take a new Scotland Bill through Parliament. However producing these draft clauses now means that whoever forms a government after the election in May 2015 will be able to turn them into law at the earliest possible opportunity.
The leaders of the three main UK-wide political parties, David Cameron, Nick Clegg and Ed Milliband, have all promised to take forward a Scotland Bill in the next Parliament.
CIPP comment
As mentioned in a recent news item – Scotland Act 2012, the CIPP Policy Team is part of the Stakeholder Group. We will continue to look at the technical aspects of the implementation of the Scottish Rate of Income Tax, particularly in light of the draft clauses which state that the Scottish Parliament will be given powers to introduce new rates and bands of income tax above the UK personal allowance.
HMRC has assured us that, working with HMT, they fully intend to consult with the business and representative community on the detail of legislating and implementing the tax powers within the Command Paper.
The next Stakeholder Group meeting is due to be held in February and the Policy Team will naturally be dissecting the command paper ahead of this meeting and will report thereafter on any detail payroll professionals and employers will need to be aware of.
HMG has published a message to stakeholders about the publication of the Command Paper and can be accessed through the link below.

Stravinsky's neoclassical extravaganza, The Rake's Progress, plays on the tension between artificiality and sincerity. This elegant and lively inaugural production by OperaGlass Works, a new company founded by Selina Cadell and Eliza Thompson, evinces this, often wittily, without tipping into archness.
In the demanding central role of Tom, Robert Murray proves an eminently likeable anti-hero, his deft dramatic touch complemented by glowing vocal lyricism.
Like all the male singers he wears 18th century costume with modern black trousers. The women are in full period gear, and one fears for Susanna Hurrell's safety as she climbs down a ladder from Wilton's public balcony to the stepped wooden stage. Fortunately, her singing as Anne is as secure as her footwork; especially attractive in the lower registers. She acts with subtlety and candour.
As the Mephistophelian Nick Shadow, Jonathan Lemalu – both genial and threatening – is enormously, fruitily resonant, while Victoria Simmonds' glamorous, live wire Baba the Turk is alluring of voice.
Stephen Richardson makes a powerful Trulove and Keeper of the House, Harry Nicoll camps it up pointedly as Sellem and Penelope Cousland brings a gleam to Mother Goose. The eight, fizzingly alert young singers of the chorus sing superbly.
Occupying the rear of the stage – and sometimes engaged in the action – are the Southbank Sinfonia and conductor-harpsichordist Laurence Cummings, a Handel expert splendidly costumed as George Frideric himself. The warm Wilton's acoustic takes some Stravinskian edge off the instrumental sound, but it shows off the singers – and their words – to ideal effect.

Between the continuous allure of the fast food and increased work schedule, obesity has been increased dramatically. Many people are turning to the weight loss supplements so as to reduce appetite and boost the metabolism in the body.
The most popular supplement today for the weight loss is Raspberry ketone that can found on the internet and health stores. The results of the raspberry for the weight loss are amazing, but only if used correctly with correct diet and exercise.
Dr Oz Raspberry Ketone Weight Loss Results
Various weight loss smoothies containing raspberry ketones have become a focus point for many magazine articles today. Many individuals are turning to idea of reviving the fat burning process and reducing the appetites so as to help them in their weight loss process. There is no ' miracle' product in the market that can help you to reduce the weight without any exercise or diet. It is important that you look at various weight loss supplements as addition to an exercise program and eating regimen.
Popularity of Raspberry Ketone Pills
For many people, raspberry is just a delicious red food that can be used in various baked sweets. The ketones that give the raspberry their distinct aroma and flavor can however breakdown the fat. This process is also known as lipolysis. Ketone has the ability to entice the fat cells releasing hormone called as adiponectin.
Adiponectin can regulate the metabolism and blood sugar levels. Also studies have found that the active ingredients present in the ketone are similar to capsaicin and synephrine. These two molecules can rev up metabolism. For this reason, many researchers believe that the results are possible only with an exercised routine and healthy diet.
Dose Of Raspberry Ketone
You need to pay attention to the warnings and the recommendation on label depending upon the product purchased. Every supplement comes with some active ingredients and its own concentration level, so the recommended dose depends on the type of product. The results of the raspberry ketone depend upon the type of lifestyle also.
Before purchasing any weight loss supplement, be sure to compare the products. You should not fall for the advertising gimmicks or marketing only. You should use them in combination with a healthy diet and exercise so as to get the best possible results. You should also consult your physician, before using them.

This year has been a great one: from watching emerging trends to discovery of this amazing gem. It was an unexpected, but a pleasant discovery. Katie Eary is my inspiration of the year.
She took street fashion and twisted it with luxury. Skating and roaming around the streets never looked so glamorous. The best part is that Eary designs still have that raw edge. No matter how many furs are piled up on top of crocodile leather, it's still very wearable and fits right in place that pop culture had open for her.
The video demonstrates that and more. I need not say more
Katie Eary A/W 2012 directed by Vicky Lawton
Her SS 13 Collection is on a lighter note with baroque prints meshed with marine motifs.
Of course there's something for the women as well

One day I hope to pull some of her garments for one of my shoots. It would be the best styling experience ever. Until then, I, among many others will scream of joy at my computer screen.

Indie Beer Week – Celebrating Local Breweries
Running until July 2nd, breweries across Ireland will be opening their doors and inviting their local communities to join them for Indie Beer Week, a celebration of independent Irish beer making.
Fancy a cold one after a calorie-burning session of stand-up paddle boarding? The brewers at Lough Gill in Sligo have you covered. Or are you more the sedentary type who enjoys the sublime combination of beer and BBQ? Then a visit to Killarney Brewing – where they'll be serving their beer with spit-roasted pig – might be just the thing.
Up at Kinnegar Brewing in Donegal people will be able to bottle their own beer and soft drinks, while the brewers at Carrig in Leitrim will be giving a hands-on brewing demonstration. Meanwhile, down in Cork, the team at Eight Degrees will be pairing beer tastings with funky music, good local food and a public unveiling of their new brewery.
Be it in Waterford, Dublin, Galway, Longford, Kildare, Louth, or Tipperary … nearly every county and community in Ireland now has an independent brewery in its midst. Indie Beer Week is an opportunity for people to discover the great beer being made all around them.
The calendar of events planned for the week is as diverse as the breweries participating. There will be brewery open days and tours, beer tastings and talks, fundraisers for charity, and plenty of fun and games.
The people at Metalman in Waterford are planning a scavenger hunt in the city. In Galway, Independent Brewing and Galway Hooker will be working together on a joint brewery tour experience where visitors do two brewery tours in one day. Dungarvan Brewing are teaming up with Merry's Gastropub to host a four course beer and food tasting menu. In Carlow, you can help O'Hara's celebrate their 21st in style with live music and DJs at the brewery. Or you can stop in at Tig Bhric in West Kerry where Beoir Corcha Dhuibhne will have an afternoon of music, food and prizes.
Indie Beer Week runs until July 2nd 2017. The initiative is cofunded by the participating breweries and the Local Enterprise Office. For a full calendar of events, please go to www.indiebeerweek.ie

We stopped today at eagle rock. It is basically what it sounds like, this massive rock shaped like an eagle.
Last but certainly not least...I got my first resupply package and have a rediculous amount of food. They have hiker boxes where people dump anything they don't want. Turns out I could eat for month just by grabbing stuff out of there. I'm planning on making a few changes to my future boxes. I did pick up a 2 liter platypus bladder that will help a ton wih filtering water. The 16 ounce bladder the sawyer mini came with takes forever to fill my bottles.
Here's a beard shot. It's getting out of control. I've been taking pictures everyday to make a slides how at the end showing how my look has changed.
Also, I apologize for typos, sloppy writing and text talk. Doing posts on a phone is tricky.

One of the best things I have ever heard from my wife is that flowers were not really her thing. This was after I had only sent them about 15 times and thought I was 'THE MAN.'
I found out really soon after this that I needed to actually do things that had meaning to her in order to get the browny points I was seeking.
So here is the best way for you to find out how to break the safe…
Listen to what your wife is saying to you and then read The 5 Love Languages by Dr. Gary Chapman and you will not go wrong. Just remember to come back and tell us if it is a boy or a girl because you will IN THE HOUSE!

Michael Mann had already made a classic by the time he directed his third film, but Manhunter arguably marks his true emergence as Hollywood's most idiosyncratic action director. Thief, from 1981, introduced audiences to the filmmaker's trademark fastidious attention to detail and emphasis on both characters' professionalism and dissatisfied ennui, but it nonetheless felt like a belated New Hollywood feature, steeped in the immediate misery of its protagonist. His 1986 adaptation of Thomas Harris's Red Dragon, however, is contemporary to a fault, so reflective of current aesthetic trends that it becomes a quintessential depiction of them.
Boiled down to its essence, Manhunter is a psychological noir, one that takes the recurrent crime-drama notion that a thin line separates hero from villain and pushes it to the extreme in the form of Will Graham (William Petersen). A forensic investigator with a nearly supernatural capacity for empathy, he solves cases by completely sinking into the subjectivity of suspects. Graham can arrive at a crime scene, look at evidence, and build a psychological profile from objective documents, intuiting the passions and illnesses that prompted a crime. That makes him an invaluable asset, but it also places the man at risk of succumbing to the same madness he preternaturally channels.
Compared to the operatic theatricality of future films in the Hannibal Lecter series, Manhunter operates on a drained emotional wavelength more suited to actual psychopaths and the traumatized individuals who cross their paths. Peterson typically keeps Graham on an even keel, giving the character's interactions with colleagues and family a softness that belies his obsessive focus on his work. When he screams, he's usually in the headspace of the criminals he's tracking, deducing their motives, desires, and frustrations until he begins to exhibit some of their inchoate rage.
But even the villains are muted. The Iago-esque glee that Anthony Hopkins brought to Lecter in Jonathan Demme's The Silence of the Lambs nowhere to be found in Brian Cox's blood-chilling portrayal of the character. This Hannibal is disturbingly mundane, with his shaved prison haircut, unblinking eyes, and laconic delivery. He sits in an ordinary cell, not some Gothic dungeon, and he speaks to Graham with total detachment, which renders his vicious sarcasm barely detectable. Francis Dolarhyde (Tom Noonan) is even more withdrawn, compartmentalizing his shame and longing into an eerily flat voice and sullen face that struggle to tamp down repression and rage.
Mann's screenplay homes in on the novel's forensic progression, drawing its suspense not only from the threat of Dolarhyde's killing spree, but from the ambiguous viability of every shred of evidence: half of a hair found on a note from Dolarhyde to Hannibal, or a cryptic message passed between killers. Yet Mann shoots this objective accumulation of clues with wild flourishes of color and composition. Neon burns bright against dim backdrops including a band of blazing hot pink that runs along the top of the photo lab where Dolarhyde works. Wide-angle lenses project the trauma of Graham's empathy into negative space, magnifying the smoldering intensity of Petersen's performance with visual cues to the investigator's haphazard mental state.
Mann's focus is so esoteric that he slowly turns the garish thriller into a kind of poetry. Slow motion is frequently employed, though the director uses it less to call attention to any detail than for its musical cadence. A scene of Dolarhyde taking blind co-worker Reba (Joan Allen) on an ad hoc date to the zoo to run her hands over a sedated tiger feels like some ancient courtship ritual for the mad. Meanwhile, Graham's epiphany as to the identity of the killer is almost spiritual, scored to soaring synths that peak at the moment of realization with the piercing wail of a guitar power chord. Mann finds in such moments a bold form of character expression, prefiguring an entire career of revealing psychological depth in pulp terms.
Manhunter's blend of naturalism and heightened stylization cannot help but produce an uneven image, but this Blu-ray is the best home-video release of Michal Mann's classic to date for its balance of sunlit exteriors and deep blacks punctuated by flashes of neon colors. Having said that, the frequent presence of shots that suffer from either too much noise or too much noise removal suggests that the source could still use a true restoration. Most of the nighttime scenes are free of crush, but color stability is inconsistent at times and produces blended palettes. The director's cut, included on a separate disc, mixes an inferior HD transfer with standard-definition clips of the excised material, naturally producing an inconsistent image.
Audio, however, fares much better, though the 5.1 remix too often separates the original stereo elements too clumsily, especially in the opening scene on a beach as waves crash with split seconds of silence between each crest, or in the nagging echo of Dolarhyde's scene with Stephen Lang's tabloid reporter. Despite these drawbacks, the film's soundtrack of '80s synth rock and Tangerine Dream-esque electronica has never sounded better, though most should stick to the original 2.0 track, which balances the music with the dialogue and Foley effects to much more natural effect.
Even by the standards of Shout! Factory's dedication to providing numerous, quality extras on their home-video releases, the features assembled for this Blu-ray edition of Manhunter are exhaustive. Extensive interviews are conducted with all of the principal cast, as well as cinematographer Dante Spinotti and the musicians who worked on the soundtrack. The shortest of these still runs 10 minutes, meaning that everyone gets ample time to describe their experiences on the film. Petersen's interview, in particular, offers a wealth of information, from the aside that Will Graham's house was actually the home of avant-garde artist Robert Rauschenberg, to his memories of cognitive dissonance upon arriving on the set of such a meticulously formal filmmaker with a background consisting almost entirely of theater work. The director's cut of the film comes with a commentary from Michael Mann, and despite the track's frequent pauses, the director imparts a great deal of insight into his thematic approach, his intensive research, even his minute observations of the actors' body language and how they're as much visual cues as lighting and camera placement. Also included are the original theatrical trailer and a still gallery.
Though it could still use a restoration, Michael Mann's classic thriller Manhunter has never looked better on home video, and Shout! Factory's extensive extras make this the version of the film to own.

NO! (In answer to the subject)
Unfortunately, the youth of Zion, Sister Johnson, faltered pretty badly this week. On Tuesday I was miserable. I had to hold my head perfectly upright and still and it was still throbbing. My throat hurt, I was coughing violently, and my ears hurt. I knew that the over the counter stuff from the clinic wasn't enough and that I needed an antibiotic. So I finally went to a good doctor and he said, "You have a sinus infection. You need an antibiotic." I had never been happier!
Well, it didn't get better all week! I was MISERABLE all the way through Friday and it was awful because we have all these great investigators and couldn't go teach them. I just wanted to get better for the baptism on Saturday so much! On top of being sick, we were carless. They had to take our car to fix the scrapes we made on Monday. So that was rough because we live at the very far edge of our big area. Thursday afternoon we called about a million members and none of them could give us a ride to the chapel to make the baptism program and go to MCM. In an ambitious moment, I decided that even though I was sick, we would walk to the 9 kilometers to the church. Well, it was not the best choice and I had to keep telling Sister Urgel to slow down. It took us an hour and a half. So I felt pretty proud of myself that in spite of everything we were there with a filled out progress record and a baptism program.
We pressed forward! And even though everything seemed to go wrong, I organized the baptism with Bishop and it all worked out. And guess what? The baptism was wonderful . . . and I was healthy. It was such a beautiful, sacred experience for me and everyone there. I just could feel God's amazing love for Auntie Kei. Ripeka is getting operated on right now and she was really, really doing poorly, but she managed to be there and so did Leanna and the girls. Elder Swan from the Visitor Center spoke and did such a great job. Then Sister Urgel and I sang "Savior Redeemer of My Soul" because Auntie Kei had requested it. It was so nice.
Afterward, we were all spoiled by Auntie Kei's boil-up. Oh, she is good!
Then this Sunday was the long awaited musical number. The Hamilton East and Claudeland missionaries sang together in both wards (at 9 and 1 o'clock). I don't know if I've mentioned it in my emails before but we have been working on it for weeks. I played the piano and sang. It was a hard song for me to play, but I got it perfect by the end and it sounded good. It was really fun and so many amazing ward members told me how much they liked it. I just love Hamilton East!
And now, tribute to my AMAZING companion! Because she learning English, she can't do a lot of the phone calling/organizing/talking to people although she is practicing and getting better. But she is still just the best. She took care of me this whole week and made me hot water lemon tea for my throat. She did all the dishes and is just great. We always make each other laugh. We are so different but we are just the dream team. I love her so very much! I'm glad she was the companion I had when I got sick. She is so good.
But I've learned a couple things this week. I've learned that Satan is powerful but God is way more powerful. I learned to accept service: lemon tea, lots of rides, people checking up to see if I was ok, help with the baptism. I learned patience . . . again. It's a good lesson for me. And I relearned that God loves us all so, so, so much . . . even when we make mistakes and scrape cars and get sick. There is always another chance and He is always there for us. I'm so grateful that God trusted me to be one of the missionaries to teach Auntie Kei, such a super, special one of his daughters. I will never forget this crazy week.
I'm just so glad to be healthy. We are getting our car back today at four. And we are going to go hard in that missionary work.
I love you all!
Kia Kaha,
Sister Clarissa Johnson

Dodgy Data
Just the other day, a political activist called me up from Patna and shared with me his views about what the ordinary people are going through while an economic slowdown looms on the near horizon. "Sadness and a sense of hopelessness has gripped ordinary people. And this mood is deepened by merciless inflation, power outages for 10 to 14 hours and inadequate supply of drinking water. Worse, there is no leader or a sensitive government to help them out from this crisis."
Surely, Nitish Kumar is doing a better job if growth figures of the state are anything to go by, I asked him. "The misery of the people does not suggest this, at least."
He is not the only one who rubbished the statistics that show Bihar's growth figures nosing ahead of others. Informed articles in reputed journals puncture holes in the claims made by the Bihar government since Nitish came to power some years ago. Bihar is trying to copy Gujarat's growth narrative under the muscular leadership of Narendra Modi to position Nitish as a serious contender for the nation's top job when the country goes to the polls in 2014.
Nitish and Modi are not the only ones who are relying on dodgy figures to showcase their stellar performance as helmsmen. Congressmen leaders, all these years, have done their bit of playing around with numbers to suit their purpose.
After all these years, there are serious issues with all kinds of data. Census figures are dodgy, we don't have a clue on the real extent of poverty and illiteracy. The same holds true for our exports. Trade data overstated our exports by a whopping $9 billion between April and November 2011. Sugar production, too, was shown to be 13 million tonnes. Later, it was corrected to 6 million tonnes.
In July 2011, a frustrated RBI Governor, V Subbarao, who heads an institution that thrives in an environment of opaqueness, was seen wringing his hands in frustration over inaccurate data when he said, "The data on inflation and industrial output is flawed and does not reflect the correct picture." He was of the view that poor quality of data can mislead policy calculations.
Subbarao's public expression of frustration suggests that there is no institutional design behind cooking up the data, but is it really the truth? While incompetence and corruption may have had a role to play in putting together growth statistics, there are some manifest manipulations that governments surreptitiously engage in for either populist reasons or to satisfy multilateral agencies.
Former International Monetary fund (IMF) adviser Davison Budhoo had blamed the lending agencies for engaging in statistical fraud by manipulating the figures of countries in the throes of economic crisis, and creating circumstances for imposing its harsh conditionalities in the name of stabilising these economies. Squeezing subsidies in the name of fiscal discipline, these conditionalities took a heavy toll of these poor societies. The Eurozone countries are also being subjected to this prescription. Budhoo provides graphic details of how this statistical fraud has been perpetrated.
Similar shades of sinister manipulation of numerical data are available in the way figures of loss in the oil sector are beefed up to bolster a clamour for doing away with 'ghost' subsidies. Late CPI(M) leader Dipankar Banerji strenuously tried to show the trickery engaged in by the government to palm off the notional concept of 'under recovery' from the sale of oil and its products as losses. Anyone who spends some time on the pricing of oil would discover how a cabal of bureaucrats and sarkari economists have been taking the aam admi for a ride.
Every time people question the rise in oil prices, the government appoints a committee to look into it. Despite that, the content of the government's argument has cussedly remained the same. There is a fear that Manmohan Singh's government, in its endeavour to stem the economic slide, will come out with a policy prescription based on flawed data.
So, again, we would see austerity and cuts in subsidies to lower our fiscal deficit. The moot question is: is the total quantum of subsidies calculated correctly, or is it that much of it is notional and may not have reached the ground?
The kind of havoc dodgy data and statistics can wreak in the lives of the poor has to be taken seriously. Nandan Nilekani's UADAI is a good beginning, but a lot more needs to be done to ensure that our poor do not end up as collateral damage in the designs of ambitious politicians, or, worse, diabolical bankers.

The Clinton County Sheriff's Office said the teenager was arrested and they have asked the prosecutor to charge her with criminal recklessness resulting in death. If toxicology tests confirm their suspicions, she may also be charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated causing serious bodily injury and operating a vehicle while intoxicated causing death.
The driver, who was not identified because of her age, lost control of the auto she was driving around 9 p.m. Wednesday and flew over a ditch before crashing into the living room of a home in the 4900 block of West County Road 300 North, WTHR reported.
Clinton County Chief Deputy Joseph Mink said they believe the vehicle was headed west on County Road 300 North when the 17-year-old driver lost control.
They were 17 and 9-years old, and they were watching television in the living room when the vehicle crashed into the house, killing them on impact. They were killed on impact, authorities said.
Those in the vehicle were treated for non-life threatening injuries.More news: Wimbledon 2017: Women's final preview
Bridget Fullerton's brother, Tim Slaugtherbuck, posted a GoFundMe page to raise funds for the family in their time of need.
There were four people inside the house at the time, 37-year-old Bridget Fullerton and three children. Fullerton was airlifted to an Indianapolis hospital in critical condition. The driver told police that she was going about 80 miles per hour at the time of the crash. Dennis was not home when it happened. They were treated for injuries that did not appear to be life-threatening and released, the news site reported. She is now being held at the Delaware County Correctional Facility.
The home has major damage, and local members of the Fullerton's church secured their home.
The driver of the vehicle, 17-year-old Alia Sierra, lost control and drove through a ditch before hitting the home.

Issues in the Cost and Finance of Special Education.
Kakalik, James S.
The paper reviews issues related to the financing of special education for physically and mentally handicapped children. Considered are the following issues said to be unresolved despite improvements in special education and increases in funding: definition and prevalence of handicapped children and the nature of their service needs; service delivery arrangements; and cost, finance, and resource allocation. Implications of broad and narrow definitions of handicapped children are considered, and difficulties with prevalence and incidence figures are discussed. Problems of special education cost analysis are seen to include treatment of joint resources and joint causes and of fixed costs, and the lack of readily available and comparable data. Research on special education finance is reviewed, and funding formulas are examined. (CL)

On May 15, 2017, the European Commission ("Commission") announced it had opened a formal investigation into a global pharmaceutical company for possible abuse of dominant position. The alleged conduct of the company, headquartered in South Africa, concerns its pricing practices for cancer medicines.
Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union prohibits the abuse of dominant position and, in particular, directly or indirectly imposing unfair purchase or selling prices or other unfair trading conditions. In the European Union ("EU"), dominant companies are subject to a tougher standard than in other jurisdictions (e.g., the United States ("U.S.")) since they hold a special responsibility not to impair genuine undistorted competition.
The investigation of the company is based on its pricing practices for generic medicines, described as "life-saving" by the EU Competition Commissioner Margrethe Vestager ("Competition Commissioner"), used for treating cancer. According to the Commission, there is information that the company "has imposed very significant and unjustified price increases of up to several hundred percent, so-called 'price gouging.'" Furthermore, it will investigate allegations that the company has threatened to (or actually did) withdraw the medicines in some Member States ("MS").
The investigation follows the imposition in September 2016 of a €5 million fine on the same company by the Italian Competition Authority ("ICA"). The ICA found that the company had obtained an increase in its prices of between 300 and 1500 percent in negotiations with the Italian Medicines Agency, which included threats to cease supply of four cancer drugs in Italy. The main concern stemming from the Commission's excessive pricing investigation is the possibility of the antitrust enforcement agency acting as an unofficial price regulator. The Competition Commissioner has, however, reportedly stated that it is trying to avoid such risk as it acknowledges this is not its role.
The case confirms the renewed interest of the Commission in so-called "exploitative abuses" by dominant companies and excessive prices in particular. Despite the general difficulty in assessing what level of price should be considered as excessive, the Competition Commissioner had previously indicated that such abuses were on the Commission's radar. This case marks the first investigation of the Commission into excessive pricing practices in the pharmaceutical industry and will cover the entire European Economic Area except for Italy where the conduct was already investigated by the ICA.

How to Make Compost
Every homeowner with a lawn and garden should learn how to make compost. It is much easier than you might think. And, since one of the best ingredients for composting is grass clippings, this makes compost an integral part of lawn care. Mowing with a mulching mower, returning clippings to the soil is healthiest for the lawn. Learning how to build a compost pile that will eventually break down on its own and provide you with natural fertilizer for the garden, is the first step toward an eco-friendly lawn.
So, What is Compost?
Compost is organic matter such as twigs, grass clippings, bark, shredded leaves, shredded newspapers, etc. that has been broken down by micro organisms like bacteria and macro organisms like insects and worms. Compost is a good source of nutrients for lawns, gardens and landscape beds because the nutrients are available to the plants in slow-release form. Completely composted material is less likely to burn grass or plants than quick release fertilizers. Compost can take a little as a few months to break down fully, or as much as two years. The amount of time it takes to go from a debris pile to rich compost for the garden depends on what is in the pile, the temperature of the pile, the moisture level, and the micro-organisms that are in the pile.
How to Build a Compost Pile
There are many types of compost: hot compost and cold compost, aerobic and anaerobic, quick and slow, compost that you turn and compost that breaks down slowly on its own. While there are great composting reference books available, and to read them, you would think that you need to understand a prolific amount of science. Composting is much easier than that. Here is a step-by-step guide to building a compost pile:
- Start with a quantity of several raw materials. You will need green matter (like fresh grass clippings), brown matter (like dried, shredded leaves or newspaper), and some soil.
- Begin layering the ingredients in a pile in the back corner of your yard, or somewhere tucked out of the way. Layer four inches of dry material, topped with two inches of wet or green material, with a few hands-full of soil.
- Continue layering until you have run out of materials.
- Give the pile a good soak with the hose.
- Then, let nature do its work.
To Turn or not to Turn
Whether you turn your compost pile is up to you. If the pile is staying wet, and not breaking down quickly, it might not have enough oxygen in the center of the pile for aerobic bacteria to work. If the pile smells bad, turning it and introducing air into the pile can help those bacteria get to work, breaking down the pile and reducing the smell. Composting is a good way to return grass clippings, vegetable scraps, and leaves back to your yard.
Knowing how to make compost will help you keep the natural nutrition from your lawn and garden in your lawn and garden for the benefit of your plants. Start on your way to an eco-friendly lawn today.

9Re-write these points and dates on a big sheet of paper (poster size). Use different colors for different facts or themes.
- Add pictures to make you want to look at the poster more.
- Make the font clear and really big so it's easy to read.
10Stick up these posters on the walls around your house. Choose areas where you tend to pass by or look frequently.
- A good place to put it is on your ceiling (if you can reach), above your pillow so you will read it every time you go to bed or wake up.
- You could even stick the poster against the glass wall in the shower so while you shower you can read it.
- Another place is either the wall opposite the toilet or even the wall opposite the stairs Every time you come upstairs you will focus on the poster.
11Do this a few days in advance of your exam. This is one of the best ways to revise if you learn by looking, as you will automatically subconsciously read it even when you don't realize your doing it. And quite possibly, other members of the household will start quizzing you after they've read the content too. Once you are confident on your knowledge, don't hesitate to ask your family members to quiz you!
Making History Flashcards
1Work out what you need to cover for the course.
2Write out questions to test whether you know the information.
- (e.g. when was the Berlin Wall built?)
3Write out the answers to the questions on the other side.
- (for the above example, 13th August 1961)
4Test yourself or get other people to test you to see if you know the answers to the questions.
5Put the flashcards into piles based on what you know and don't know, then focus on the areas that you are struggling with.
Community Q&A
QuestionShould I review past papers?SpaceWhaleCommunity AnswerYes, this can help you understand what kind of questions you will get, but it's unlikely that the exact same questions will be asked. Mock tests are probably better for this reason.

If there is one place where the DCEU has overtaken Marvel is their willingness to give the female superheroes a fighting chance. With Wonder Woman getting her stand-alone film much before any of the other Justice League characters, DCEU isn't a lost cause yet. Wonder Woman already made an appearance in Batman V Superman but those of who are not comic book nerds don't know much about her except for her capabilities in the battle. This movie hopes to solve that. Wonder Woman made her comic debut in 1941 in the midst of a war and it is no surprise that her introduction to the men of the world took place in such a time. If you have seen the trailers, you know the movie looks good but there are some things you might have missed, not anymore.
The Golden Lasso
The Golden Lasso which we got a sneak peak at in Batman V Superman is all set to be a part of this movie as well. It confirms the comic lore that the Lasso was with Wonder Woman since her first foray into the battle.
Battling with God
In her first movie itself, Wonder Woman is shown battling with her nemesis the God of war Ares. But that isn't the only villain in the movie. The final trailer reveal Dr. Poison who might not win in a fist fight against Wonder Woman but she is certainly a formidable foe.
War comes to Themyscira
Given the timeline and the settings, the rest of the world seems to be in a midst of war whereas Themyscira (home of Wonder Woman remains untouched. But not anymore, not long after Diana meets Steve Trevor, a battle wages on the beaches of Themyscira. You know you are in for an epic battle sequence when you witness Antiope shooting three arrows at the same time.
Steve Trevor
It is no secret the Steve Trevor is Diana's first love and also the first man she ever sees. He is also the one who transports her from Themyscira to the middle of the war (well, almost). They have kept that part of the story intact and that is a relief for all the comic book lovers.
The first trailer had Diana entering modern-day Louvre which proves that her origin story is in flashback and it makes sense if they are trying to establish a timeline. She receives the popular photograph of her standing with her World War one colleagues. It is very possible that Mr. Wayne has something to do with this.
Are you excited for the movie? You can read our review here and don't forget to share.

President Obama Speaks on the Economy
We know from our history that our economy does not grow from the top down [i.e., 'trickle down' doesn't work], it grows from the middle out. We do better when the middle class does better. We do better when workers are getting a decent salary. We do better when they've got decent benefits. We do better when a young family knows they can get ahead…. That's when things hum.
With just a few changes we could get a lot done right now if Congress would think about you, and not about getting re-elected, not about the next election, not about some media sound bite, but just focus on you….
My message to Republicans is, Join us. Get on board. If you're mad at me for helping people on my own, they why don't you join me? And we'll go it together. We'll do it together. I'm happy to share the credit.

Anyone who knows us knows that we eat out. It's just what we do. When dinner time comes around we just ask our two year old if she wants Cafe Rio or In-N-Out. Some nights she says pizza and other nights it's Panera. Really, we've been in a sad state of affairs, but probably not unlike plenty of other people. We're tired when we get home from work, hungry right away, and the thought of cooking and then having dishes to wash is enough for us to own stock in our local Wahoo's because we eat there so often. Not to mention, I go out to lunch every single day.
We don't spend a lot when we go out. We split a burrito three ways, or use gift certificates and coupons, so it's not like we're eating at The Ritz every night. However, whenever I look at our bank account online almost every transaction is food related.
So, a few weeks ago I suggested to Hubs that for 30 days we cook every meal at home and only go out if we have gift certificates to cover the full cost of the meal. Little did I know how much this would revolutionize our way.
The hardest part for me was packing my lunch. I work in a small office and it's nice to get out and go somewhere during the day, to sit and read without hearing a phone ring, or meet friends for lunch…just something to break up the day. I've never been one to eat at my desk. I lose focus and the day turns into a blur of non-productivity. If this whole idea to not spend any money at restaurants was going to work I had to plan ahead.
Aside from bringing my lunch, which usually consists of left-overs or a baked potato, I had to plan dinners ahead of time too. This has always come and gone in waves for me. I go from being super-motivated and planning a month of meals at a time, to getting home, looking in the fridge, and suggesting we go out. This month I had to focus.
I wanted to do a sort of "cook from the pantry" challenge, and clear out some of the pasta packets and beans that have been hiding in the back of our cupboards for, let's be honest, years. If it was no good anymore than we were going to find out once I cooked it, and either eat it or toss it and wait for me to make something else.
We've only had to run to the store a few times to get a couple basics we ran out of (milk, tomato soup, and hamburger buns), but other than that I've been able to successfully feed the three of us (and an occasional parent or two) by just using what we already had on hand and we're about three weeks in.
There are a few things that make this much, much easier, almost to the point of feeling like I'm cheating. First, we're part of a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) through South Coast Farms in San Juan Capistrano, CA, so every three months we pay a certain amount of money to buy a share of whatever produce comes off our local farm for that quarter. We pick a basket up every other week about a mile away from our house full of fresh, organic produce picked that morning. If not for that I would definitely have to run to Grower's Direct for our fruits and veggies. We decided not to renew for the upcoming quarter because I'm planting a garden and hope to get most of our produce from my backyard. If that's not an option for you, I love the CSA and highly recommend that you look into whether or not it's a viable option for your produce needs. I'm happy to answer specific questions about it since we've done it for years.
The other thing we did a couple months ago really helped us in the "prepare-for-the-unexpected-without-knowing-it" category. We purchased a quarter of a side of beef from my uncle's ranch in Idaho. This is the real deal, grass fed, organic, hormone/antibiotic free beef that we got for a steal, and my dad and brother drove to pick it up. After pitching in for gas, the total came to $3.60/lb which is amazing for this area (compared to places like Whole Foods), and we got all sorts of cuts of meat…tenderloin, steaks, ribs, ground beef. Not to mention, I know where it came from which is really important to me. So, instead of running out to the store for a protein to include with our meal, I just decide which of the 100 lbs of beef I'll pull out of the upright freezer in the garage. I can guarantee that the produce from the CSA and the stockpile of beef in our freezer makes this 30 days a whole lot easier.
The one thing I expected was that we would save money. And, we have. Lots of money. Now I look online and don't see one single restaurant related transaction, which has never happened in the ten years we've been married.
What I didn't expect was that I would fall in love with nourishing my family with real, whole food. I've been doing things like making our bread for a while (separate post about that), but now I'm making homemade corn and flour tortillas because they're so darn easy. I just tried my hand at homemade bagels a couple days ago, so those will last for the week, and we have frozen homemade gnocchi in the freezer for a quick dinner. I'll do separate posts on all those things sometime, but I realize that making things from scratch doesn't usually save time (unless the supermarket is really, really busy that day). In most cases it has saved us money, but in all cases it gave me control over what's going into the food that we're eating. Being frugal means making conscious decisions to live with intentionality, to consume with a purpose, and that includes the type of food we eat.
I don't want my daughter remembering her family dinners as getting in the car and going somewhere. This has been such an enriching time for us, and we had no idea when we started that Hubs would get laid off a couple weeks in, so now we're better prepared to make this a normal part of our life instead of a 30-day exception to the rule.

Amy Lyn's Stash and Pattern Attack Challenge
Over the years I've had several friends, family members and co-workers pass their patterns, notions and fabrics onto me. Either they decided to stop sewing or lost a family member who sewed and thought I could do something with their stash rather than leaving it all out for the trash. I'm forever grateful.
Also, I worked at a fabric store for 3 years and each season when they changed the pattern books they allowed employees to take whichever and however many patterns they wanted, for FREE. You better believe I worked the pattern counter that night. Luckily, with a pattern addiction the worst that can happen is paper cuts and an overflowing closet.
When I started on Etsy I told myself I was going to create a database of all my patterns and put them up for sale. But, the more I went through my patterns stash the more I wanted to just sew every single one of them. So, that's what I've decided to do. Ok, not EVERY one, but the ones that I can't stop looking at, the ones I can't bear to part with. Here are a few paired with their designated fabrics:
So, I first separated the patterns I must make from the rest of my collection. Next I went to my fabric stash and started pairing up patterns to fabrics. Finally I folded the patterns inside the fabric and stacked in a storage bin. (This is one of the bins)
These are the rules I made for myself for my Stash and Pattern Attack Challenge
Rule 1: Once fabric is paired with patterns there is no changing it. (I'd spend all my time putting patterns with fabric and never get to sewing.)
Rule 2: If the pattern chosen has multiple pieces and/or styles all must be made, but not necessarily at the same time or from the same fabric.
Rule 3: Chose what to make randomly. Either reach into the bucket without looking and choose something or have my son Sam pick.
Rule 4: Make at least one Challenge piece a week.
And so, the first eco-friendly piece of clothing I made using a pattern from my collection is a size 5/6T girls sundress. The pattern is not quite vintage, circa 1991. The thread, fabric and elastic were "salvaged", as in, they were new and unused, but bound for the trash if I didn't take them in.
As you can see, this pattern also includes a similar dress with a flounce hem and a jumpsuit. So, back in the challenge box this pattern must go.
Now, I really hope my biggest challenge won't be finding buyers for all the wonderful outfits I'm making.
This jumper is now for sale on Green Carbon and am always happy to take custom orders.
You can be a part of my challenge if you send me your size I will send to you jpegs of the patterns and fabric pairings I've created to choose from. Make your selection and that pattern will be moved to the top of the list. I will only charge for my time but can guarantee you will get a GREAT deal for a well made one of a kind piece of clothing that you will love wearing.
