Tom has black hair and dark brown eyes. He is 6'3 (1.93 mt) and right handed.
Tom Ellis: (About Miranda) It's nice to be involved in something like this, I don't think I've ever had this much attention from people in the streets as I do since I did Miranda! We all loved doing it and we've been doing it for a couple of years. My hope for it was that people had as much fun watching it as we did making it.
Tom Ellis: (About Miranda) Because we shot it in front of a live audience, we knew that they were having a great time - but we didn't know how that was gonna translate to TV. You don't know how the critics are gonna take it, or how the viewing figures will be. But it's become a hit.
Tom Ellis: (When asked to tell a joke) Two fish in a tank. One says to the other: 'So how do you drive this thing?' Um, yeah. Well, I'm laughing.
Tom Ellis: (About his best practical joke): I wouldn't say it was the best, but the most misjudged one was after I'd worked on a war movie with lots of men. We'd play lots of practical jokes on each other, one of which I thought was hilarious. When the dessert on the dining bus was trifle, one guy said to another: 'Does this smell funny to you?' and as he went to smell it, he shoved it in his face. Brilliant. On my next job there was a female runner and we were all having a laugh and that day we had trifle. The cogs started turning in my head… so I said to her: 'Does that smell funny to you?' and I pushed it in her face. There was the classic moment when there's an audible intake of breath, and as she opened her eyes and wiped away the cream she started to cry and ran off. I felt terrible and no-one would talk to me. I had to walk away.
Tom Ellis: (About the funniest thing he's done at school) I always remember one incident in my final year at junior school. The kid I used to sit next to was a friend of mine called Christian Bayliss. One time I was sitting in a maths class and I had my finger firmly stuck up my nose, which was a bad habit I had as a kid, and I pulled out a tasty-looking bogey. I was very impressed with it, so I said: 'Christian, look at that!' And he looked at it and literally threw up. On the desk. What a great reaction.
Tom Ellis: (About his sense of humour) I think there are times when you laugh at things you shouldn't and realise immediately you shouldn't be laughing. I've got a schoolboy sense of humour, which sometimes doesn't fit in with the responsibility of being a husband and dad. It involves back-tracking quite a lot.
Tom Ellis: (About laughing in inappropriate situations): I laugh all the time at people falling over. When we had the snow and ice earlier this year, I did see some rather comedic instances near where I live. There was one particular bit of black ice that I could see from my bedroom window where I saw about five people slip up on it in a day. Rather than go out and be a good neighbour and put some grit on it, I stood in my bedroom waiting to see who the next victim was.
Tom Ellis: (About his wife, Tamzin Outhwaite) It's the best thing that's ever happened to me. It sorted out my priorities. I've always been the most important person in my life and I'm not anymore.
Tom Ellis: (About his greatest goal in life) This is going to sound very soppy, but to have a happy family and be able to support them in whatever they do.
Tom Ellis: (About the shows he grew up watching) I used to watch Robin Hood, Robin of Sherwood on ITV which starred Jason Connery. Michael Praed, too. My mum and dad were always into costume dramas so I would always watch something I didn't understand, but looked very pretty.
Tom Ellis: (About Merlin, where he plays Cenred) I'd not watched a lot before, but I love it now whether I'm in it or not. My daughter loves it, too. I think it's a really big achievement for the BBC in terms of production values as well. It's one of those great shows you can watch with the whole family.
Tom Ellis: (About his character of Cenred in Merlin) I had a lot of fun playing a bad guy, the way it was written in some scenes he was almost a panto-esque baddie, or a Bond-like villain. It was possibly the most fun I've ever had on a TV set. I got to do everything I ever wanted to do when you're a kid.
Tom Ellis: (About his Cenred costume in Merlin) Oh my gosh! I loved it! It was the best costume I've ever worn for anything! It was tailor-made for me, the most ridiculous leather suit which I could barely move in and an OTT wig. I looked a bit like Russell Brand really, so I've been told. An evil Russell Brand.
Tom Ellis: (About his daughters) Both my daughters are both so unimpressed when they see me on television. I want them to say: 'Oh, dad!' But I say: 'Who's that?' and they say: 'Dad' with no real interest, even if I'm wearing a long wig and riding on a horse! I think I'll have to read a CBeebies bedtime story instead.

Multinational hotel developer Orascom Development Holding AG posted a net loss at the end of the first three months of 2013 after its construction and realty division sold fewer real estate units in Egypt and Oman.
Orascom reported a net loss of 19.1m francs ($19.7m/£13m) for the first quarter, as compared to a 4m franc loss a year ago, owing to a 20% drop in real estate sales, apart from 6.7m francs in foreign exchange losses from the US dollar-denominated loans in Egypt, a company statement said. First quarter revenues dropped 7.8% to 57.9m francs.
The Group's cost-savings programme, rolled out earlier this year to cut costs by 40-45m francs over the next 2-3 years, is underway, it said.
Orascom Development's stock lost 1.9% at 12:21 p.m. on the SIX Swiss Exchange.
Hotel revenues rose 2.3% to 34.9m francs, equivalent to 60.2% of the Group's revenues. Occupancy rates at its hotels touched 56%, compared to 52% in the first quarter of 2012, after hotel properties around the Red Sea hosting more guests.
The Group operates 6,654 hotel rooms.
Real estate and construction revenues dropped 29.2% to 11m francs, compared to 15.6m francs a year ago, owing to 'fewer real estate units being sold and delivered' in Egypt and Oman.
Orascom's owner Samih O. Sawiris decided to pick up a 51% stake in the Group's hotel project in the Andermatt Swiss Alps in March. "The Group expects the transaction to close in the second quarter of 2013, by when the project will also be deconsolidated, reducing the Group's debt," the company said.
Orascom will continue to focus on its key markets Egypt, Oman and Montenegro and will explore opportunities to hive off non-strategic assets and investments over the next two years, the firm said. The sale-and-lease back transaction in El Gouna is a first step in this direction and it brought in 5m francs in cash. Orascom expects similar transactions over the course of the year.

Dear friends,
Welcome back to a new school year! I hope you are refreshed and energized as we have a very busy year ahead.
A new capital plan will be introduced that will determine whether we will have the room to finally eliminate overcrowding in our schools or significantly reduce class size. The Mayor is making a big push to lobby the legislature to renew Mayoral control, by helping form a new political operation that expects to raise $20 million. He is also apparently considering trying to overturn term limits. All of these factors will determine the future of our schools for years to come, and as parents, we have to make sure that our voices are heard and our views seriously considered in whatever decisions are made.
In addition, an important Presidential election will also be held just two months from now. A couple of years ago, Class Size Matters teamed up with a parent organization in
We're joining forces again to get a message out to the Democrat and Republican presidential candidates about the key reforms that as parents and stakeholders we believe are needed in our schools.
While more access to health care and quality afterschool is important, we believe that there are miles to go before classroom conditions in most high-needs urban schools begin to rival those offered by the schools that wealthier kids attend, and until we start to provide some of the same educational opportunities to all our children, we haven't even begun to see their potential in improving outcomes.
As such, we're asking you to sign on to the letter above. It calls for a major federal effort to eliminate school overcrowding, provide smaller classes and more guidance counselors in high-needs schools, ensure that all students receive a rich curriculum, including more arts and high-quality assessments that are primarily classroom-based, and encourage parental involvement in decision-making.
Please let us know if you'd like to sign on by contacting us at classsizematters@
Too often the parent voice is the last to be heard in these debates, if at all; let's make sure that this time, we speak out loudly and clearly for the sake of our kids.


text: For fifteen hundred years, popular audiences have loved tales of the Brendan voyage and have turned to them for inspiration. Never have their gentleness, intimacy with nature, amusement, and redemptive themes been more relevant than today. This fresh version of a Christian classic recaptures long-forgotten poetry, history, and drama in this sixth-century Irish voyage to the New World. Take a deck chair and cruise the mysterious Dark Ages from Palestine to Labrador with St. Brendan.

I typically refer to my family as "The Family." I realize this makes us sound like mafioso (we're not. I don't think. We don't have nearly enough money or fedoras for that) but it's really the only expression that works. My friends have started doing it, too – "Oh no she didn't! What did The Family think about that?" It's made me realize what a freakish unit we are.
When something happens, it effects all of us. Stories spread through The Family very quickly. For instance, on Christmas when my Great Aunt said something horrific to my cousin's new fiance, she was being confronted by my grandmother and The Family knew all about it before she was even finished uttering the words.
When that same fiance started turning my cousin into someone he is most certainly not and turning him against The Family, she became good as dead to us. When my uncle's girlfriend went crazy a couple years ago and upset The Family – done. It seems like we've had a lot of relationship issues within The Family lately – boyfriends and girlfriends not meeting our strict approval. Through every knew instance of disapproval, my boyfriend gets a little more smug.
"They still love me! Your great aunt has never made me cry!"
"They do love you, but they'd love you more with a college degree. They talk about that all the time."
"At least they're still talking about me. When was the last time anyone mentioned your uncle's crazy girlfriend?"

|Lake Vostok may or may not be capable of harboring life. Have researchers from Bowling Green University found proof of life?
Over the years I've written many times about Lake Vostok, an underground lake in Antarctica which has been frozen over for millions of years. Recently, a team of Russian scientists succeeded in drilling through more than two miles of ice to find the fresh water underneath. They retrieved some samples of lake water, and kept some and sent some to other scientists. Everyone wants to know whether any kind of like was able to survive for millions of years in total blackness. Some people figure that it is impossible since there is no light to support photosynthesis.
I am far from an expert in the field, but on the other hand the problem is kind of like pro football in the sense that the casual fan's opinion is about as good as the experts'. They just don't know.
My personal sentiment is that I would love for some life to exist, preferably some prehistoric type. If it does, maybe it is also possible for life to exist in other dark cold oceans. In particular, Europa is a moon of Jupiter the size of a small planet, and which has a water ocean covered completely by ice. Many observers have suggested that the search for life in Lake Vostok, may have implications for the likelihood of life in the ocean of Europa.
|Jupiter's moon Europa is known to have a water ocean underneath its icy surface. In that respect it may resemble Antarctica.
Last year the Russians thought they had found evidence of an unknown bacterium from ice that came up with the drill bit, but this was disputed in scientific circles ( http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0067221 ). Otherwise the water brought up from the upper layers of Lake Vostok seems to be lifeless ( Lifeless surface layers of Lake Vostok ). Now an American group from Bowling Green University have analyzed some ice cores (not pristine lake water, but ice taken from close to the lake surface). They claim to have found abundant evidence of microorganisms ( http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0067221 ). The media has been quick to embrace their claims. "Teeming with life!" gushes MSNBC ( nbcnews.com ). Why they have even found some bacteria that live only in the guts of fish...so maybe there are fish in Lake Vostok and they are puking this bacteria....
But hold on just a daggone minute!! If these bacteria only live in fish guts, and the sample is not fish guts, doesn't it seem more likely that this is contamination? Yes the researchers tried to not handle the water samples, and they wore gloves. But can they be sure that nobody touched the gloves? Or the containers? Contamination is always an issue in a project of this sort. I think the guys involved in drilling were eating fish, and so wouldn't it make more sense to assume that the fish gut bacteria probably might have come from them?
Indeed Nature magazine has reported on the controversy ( Nature article about Lake Vostok ). The scientists are not so quick to embrace the wild claims of abundant life as the news media.
More data will likely resolve the controversy. I'm still hoping that they will find evidence of something glamorous, like the Loch Ness monster. But at the moment it is questionable whether anything at all can in fact survive.
I loved the Godzilla movies when I was a kid. Wouldn't it be cool to find some prehistoric life form living in Lake Vostok?

{Suit from Chandigarh, Jewellry from Ludhiana, Choora from Phagwara, Browns Shoes, Coach Bag}
This long weekend is perhaps one of the busiest in the year for weddings. I recently attended my first wedding with my husband and realized I was a bit unprepared because I didn't remember that I needed to take part in rituals that I hadn't needed to or hadn't bothered with before, mostly because they were handled by my parents. So now, going forward, besides my lipstick, gloss, and mirror, I also need to include the 'envelope' and shagun money. Being realistic about how much time I'll need to get ready and scheduling driving time to the location is a good idea as well 😉

in Honour of Honor
What�s Honor Oak�s high street like?
It may be smaller on paper than its twin town Forest Hill, yet has managed a perfectly selective high street that hosts some cool traders. Selective you say? Well yeah. Residents here bum-rushed the very suggestion of a Domino's Pizza opening up in the the old bank and guess what? Now it's going to be an independent artisan pizza place. Nice one.
Traditonal high street businesses include a great florist, locally loved hairdresser and newly opened Sainsbury's Local. But you'll get your fill of indie retailers here; Jumping Bean (a crammed gift shop), Neroli Skincare (an all natural beautician) and Hills and Parkes (totally ace delicatessen) are, in themselves, worth travelling to.
If you love eating out, just see how lucky you are: Le Querce is a really, really brilliant Italian, Donde is a fairly awesome tapas bar and Babur is a super-ace Indian. You've got live music, light lunches, cake and cocktails happening at Hopscotch and late night DJs and West Indian food at Stonebar
Honor Oak�s housing stock and residents
Using the 2011 census that covers the centre of Honor Oak, most people living here are aged 25-44 years' old, there are more households whose occupants are single/sharing professionals than families and comparitively few lone-parent households. By far, most people living here are working full-time and are educated to degree level. You'd be extremely lucky to pick up a detached house around here, most homes are 1930's and Victorian terraces and flats. I got this information from an area search on the Office of National Statistics' site
Where to buy in Honor Oak
This part of south east London rose in price long before Forest Hill, yet (comparitive) bargains can be had on the Crofton Park side, along Stondon Road and south of Brockley. It really is worth checking out the larger-than-average family homes along Grierson, Riseldine, Tatnell and Parbury roads. If you can do less space there are plentiful half-houses directly across the high street and an abundance of good-looking flats.
More about Honor Oak
If you want easy access to community goings-on, there's a town web site and a great blog about what's happening in the area. Do join the local forums such as SE23.com and South East Central. Honor Oak Community Centre has a helpful Facebook page that invites suggestions for events.

Travelers Leads the Dow Higher
The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up slightly after existing-home sales came in below expectations but still relatively strong. As of 1:10 p.m. EST, the Dow is up 36 points, or 0.26%, to 13,685. The S&P 500 is up just two points to 1,488.
There was just one economic release this morning, when the National Association of Realtors announced that existing-home sales fell to a seasonally adjusted and annualized 4.94 million in December. That's down from November's 4.99 million and below analyst expectations of 5.13 million. While slightly below expectations, it's still a relatively high level and almost 13% above last year's level. Home sales have been buoyed by a lack of inventory, as well as extremely low mortgage rates.
Data by YCharts.
The other big news item of the day came from the Bank of Japan, which decided to adopt a new inflation target of 2% and new quantitative-easing measures to stimulate the economy. Japan has suffered from 20 years of deflation, i.e., falling prices. Deflation is a big problem, as it encourages individuals to hold cash rather than spend it, leading to a continuously weakening economy. Japan has tried stimulus measures before, but it always terminates them before they can turn the country around.
Today's Dow leader
Today's Dow leader is Travelers , up 2.9% to $78.50. Travelers is a property insurance company whose results fluctuate with the frequency of natural disasters. With Hurricane Sandy hitting the East Coast hard last quarter, analysts were expecting terrible earnings from the company. However, while Travelers' profits dropped 51%, the company reported earnings per share of $0.72, beating analyst expectations of $0.12 per share. Revenue was $6.5 billion versus analyst estimates of $6.3 billion.

Absolute return manager picks SEI for Irish funds
Absolute return manager 36 South Capital Advisors has appointed SEI to service its Irish-domiciled funds.
Absolute return manager 36 South Capital Advisors has appointed SEI to service its Irish-domiciled funds.
36 South Capital Advisors, the London offshoot of New Zealand parent investment manager 36 South, is to have all of its volatility funds administered by outsourcing firm SEI.
SEI has a total of 350 investment manager clients, which include mutual funds, private equity funds, exchange traded funds, collective trusts, separately managed, institutional and private client accounts, as well as hedge funds.
Of the 2,200 funds it services, 950 are hedge funds and funds of hedge funds.
"SEI's global presence, technology and scalability were critical for us as we sought an outsourcing partner," said Richard Haworth, partner and CIO at 36 South Capital Advisors.
The firm's "Manager Dashboard" forms the core of its fund administration service. It gives "flexible, transparent, and aggregated views of data across multiple product lines from the fund or portfolio level to investment detail via the web," SEI said.
36 South will use the platform to view data related to holdings, transactions, and performance. More comprehensive access to data will allow for a better investor experience, said Haworth at 36 South.
Eight months ago, the absolute return manager decided to re-domicile its seven funds from the unregulated Cayman Islands to Ireland.
It wanted a regulated environment for its funds and the "unique umbrella and sub-fund structure with segregated liability between the sub-funds" that Ireland offers, a spokesperson said. The process of re-domiciliation is due to be completed on 1 March 2011.

A supremely beautiful poem. The best thing is to hear Dylan Thomas himself reading it.
It was my thirtieth year to heaven
Woke to my hearing from harbour and neighbour wood
And the mussel pooled and the heron
Priested shore
The morning beckon
With water praying and call of seagull and rook
And the knock of sailing boats on the net webbed wall
Myself to set foot
That second
In the still sleeping town and set forth.

A near-50 per cent reduction in work done in the United States has driven down overall levels of worldwide construction activity on wind power installations, a new report says.
In its 2013 Half Year Report, the World Wind Energy Association (WWEA) says the overall volume of wind generating capacity installed throughout the world in the first six months of this year came in at 13.980 gigawatts (GW) – down from 16.3 GW in the first half of 2012 and 18.3 GW in the same period in 2011.
Leading the decline was the United States – the world's second biggest market, where the volume of capacity installed plummeted from an abnormally high volume of 2.883 GW in the first half of last year to just 1.6 GW in the six months to June amid a hangover following a scramble on the part of producers last year to bring facilities online over what were then fears about the future of a tax credit for wind installations.
The credit, which provides for payments of 2.3 cents-per-kilowatt hour to wind producers for the first decade following installation, was extended to the end of 2013 in January this year, but concerns prior to this that it would simply expire at the end of last year as originally planned sparked frenzied efforts to complete as many installations as possible prior to that time.
Elsewhere, installation work held steady in China – the world's biggest market but dropped in India and plummeted in Spain amid difficult financing conditions.
All told, the association expects 35.7 GW to be installed around the world throughout 2013 – well down from the 44.6 GW put in place last year.
WWEA president He Dexin acknowledges the past year has been difficult but anticipates better times ahead in 2014, when the association expects the number of installations to set a new world record.
"The year 2013 is a difficult year for the wind industry worldwide as companies have to struggle with a decreasing market size" Dexin said. "This situation has already led to a decrease in wind turbine prices which will make wind power even more cost competitive."
"Though we face some challenges currently, we are still confident about wind power development in the future. As a result, we see bright prospects for this technology which will become even more cost-competitive."
While the past year has seen quiet global conditions, activity in Australia has been ramping up, notwithstanding local opposition to new projects.
Having added negligible capacity in the first half of either 2011 or 2012, Australia put 475 megawatts in place during the first half of this year to take the country's total installed capacity to 3.059 GW, moving us up from 15th to 13th on the world table.
Apart from Australia, construction work on offshore farms in the UK saw capacity surge there, while Germany also witnessed healthy levels of growth.
Overall, the world has a total of 296.3 GW of wind capacity installed – enough to meet around 3.5 per cent of global energy needs.
China leads the way, followed by the USA, Germany, Spain and India.

New Delhi: Mamata Banerjee`s remarks suggesting that Lok Sabha elections could be held next year, at least a year before the scheduled time, evoked mixed reactions from Congress and BJP.
While Congress, leading the UPA coalition, insisted that the government will complete its full term, BJP said if "Mamata Banerjee can get this country free of this government early, it is even better".
BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said, "She has hinted at 2013...We would want this government to go in 2012 only because it is not in favour of this country for this government to stay even for a minute longer."
Congress spokesperson Rashid Alvi said he had not gone through the statement of the Trinamool Congress leader and it would not be proper on his part to make any comments.
"But one thing is very clear that UPA-II will complete its term and elections will be held at scheduled time," he said, adding that Mamata could be talking to her party workers to be ready to face any elections.
Hussain said the earlier the government goes, it was better as the "economy is not right, the foreign policy is also not right, industrial growth rate has also come down and the FDI is not coming".
"This country has never been in a worse time than it is in Manmohan Singh`s time. We hope UPA allies will bid it goodbye for the benefit of the country," he said.
Yesterday, the Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee had claimed she has information that a political party in Delhi had held a meeting to advance the Lok Sabha poll to 2013 and asked her partymen to be ready for it.

Wherever you may be staying in Mumbai, in whichever corner your workplace may be situated in this metropolis of more than thirteen million people, you never ever fail to receive your home-made food in time at the lunch hour at your workplace (provided you are willing to pay a nominal sum for the service)! Six days a week some 5000 semi-literate tiffin-wallahs (also called dibba-wallahs) in Mumbai deliver some 200,000 lunch boxes from home to office and take the boxes back again.
Each of these is an entrepreneur, with an investment of around Rs 1200, and a shareholder of the 'Nutan Mumbai Tiffin Box Suppliers Charity Trust (NMTBSCT)'. Dressed in typical attire, i.e., a half sleeved open shirt and a pyjama or trousers, plus a 'Gandhi cap' and Kolhapuri chappals, the tiffin-wallahs carry a wooden case on their heads with 25 to 30 boxes in it. They use a simple, but effective system based on the commuter train infrastructure.
One set of people collect the tiffin boxes from the homes and take them to the local train stations. They load them in the specified local train. Another set unloads them at the destinations. A third set of carriers waiting at the stations sort out and assemble their respective sets of tiffin boxes and deliver them to the customers. The carriers collect the empty tiffin boxes in the afternoon and deliver them back to the homes from where they were collected in the morning.
The tiffin boxes are marked with specific colour codes identifying the place of origin and the place of delivery. The origins of the codification system date back to around 1880-85 and can be traced to the nomads ('Gowaals' and 'Bharwaads') of the Saurashtra and Kutch region of Gujarat in India. Their system of codification was created some 120 years ago to recognize their individual cattle from the collective mass. The continued success of the tiffin-wallahs has been attributed to their reinventing and re-engineering their codification system to match the infrastructure, growth and spread of Mumbai.
The tiffin-wallahs of Mumbai are basically self-employed, and have formed a system that is so efficient at delivering tiffin boxes to the right person on time that they are recognized as the best case of network management in the world. Forbes magazine has accorded the tiffin-wallahs an accuracy rating of 99.99 per cent - one error per eight million deliveries. This exceeds the 'Six Sigma' performance.
According to many experts, the entire service is a feat in logistics. It encompasses all the activities involved in sourcing, procurement, conversion and logistics. This is reflected in the operations of the tiffin-wallahs which focusses on optimization of activities with a view to transporting the finished product using various modes of transportation to distribution centres, and ultimately to customers. The entire process of tiffin collection, delivery and the return journey of the tiffin box is a perfect example of excellence in supply chain management.
Is the performance of the tiffin-wallahs a feat in logistics or in supply chain management? Explain the reasoning for your answer.
Maruti Udyog, the leading manufacturer of cars in India, is a leader in supplier relationship management. Its turnover was Rs 12,481 crore and its profit before tax was Rs 1750 crore in 2005-06. It sold 561,822 vehicles in 2005-06 and captured a market share of over 55 per cent. It deals with about 7,100 components for its eleven major models. 70 per cent of its suppliers by number are located within a 100 km radius of its Gurgoan plant. They meet more than 80 per cent of Maruti's requirements by value, which was at a level of Rs 7150 crore in 2005-06.
Maruti has 220 approved vendors who supply the major components. The top 80 vendors supply 86 per cent by value of their purchases. The rest of the vendors supply only 14 per cent. It has also signed joint ventures with a large number of its vendors. Of the 86 per cent components supplied by vendors, joint ventures supply only 34 per cent; the rest of the 52 per cent by value is supplied by other vendors. These 80 vendors are considered strategic partners. Only 20 to 30 of them are Maruti joint ventures.
With strategic partners, Maruti has a number of programs. Their emphasis is on vendor productivity and quality. Maruti takes a major role in improving vendor productivity. It organizes Junkai VA or cost workshops with its vendors on an ongoing basis. Junkai is a Japanese word which basically means 'visiting'. It has 3 components called three G -Gemba, Gembutsu, and Genjitsu.
Gemba means taking a look to see what is happening at the site. Gembutsu means examining the affected piece to understand what exactly the defect is. Genjitsu means discussing under what conditions this has happened - something like a brainstorming session. Typically, a team from Maruti, along with the supplier team, visits the supplier's shop floor, has a look around, noting down points. They then have a brainstorming session at the Maruti office. At the end of the brain storming, they come out with various points relating to improvements in productivity, quality and cost.
Maruti has also constituted a group called Maruti Centre for Excellence. This is a team which continuously goes to suppliers to upgrade them. It audits the workings of its suppliers and comes out with a spider chart. The spider chart has 22 points. Each vendor is evaluated on these 22 points. Additional business is promised on the next new model to vendors who score over 60 per cent on the spider chart. Every vendor really tries to make sure that he goes above this mark.
Apart from this, it has also started second tier improvement in a very big way. This was the latest initiative it took up a year ago. The result has been that the second tier vendor's quality has also gone up. It has also started 'green initiatives'. Accordingly, all packing has been converted into reusable packing. It recently introduced a practice to check the pollution levels of all the trucks getting into Maruti; if the pollution levels were not right, then the trucks were sent back. This made its vendors understand that Maruti cared about the environment.
Further, it follows the Kaizen theme, which means to make it smaller, fewer, lighter, shorter and beautiful. It follows this theme in its plant and has been continuously teaching this practice its vendors. It conserves the usage of material and yield improvement. Moreover, along with CII and USAID, it has started a programme to help its suppliers get ISO 14000 certification. It has also started a programme on ELV compliance. Though this is not required in India, the idea is that by the time the requirement comes to India, Maruti's vendors will all be sufficiently equipped to take care of it. It also has a vendor finance cost reduction programme. It has lined up with banks to see that the loans of its suppliers are transferred to lower interest rates. Through these initiatives Maruti has become more agile and leaner.
In 2005-06, Maruti trained around 16 vendors and ultimately the savings of man hours per day came to 1580 man hours, which has resulted in a saving of over one crore rupees per annum. It was able to reduce component costs by 29 per cent on the Alto alone from 2001 to 2005.
As you can see, excelling in supplier relationship management is complex. It takes much effort and work. Motivation needs to be balanced with jeopardy. What is it that makes the results worthwhile?

2013 Annual Meeting
Going on the Offense for Economic Equality
Jared Bernstein and Panel Frame Social Work Challenges
and Opportunities at 2013 Annual Meeting
Alicia Fry, LMSW, Case Management Supervisor Services Now for Adult Persons (SNAP);
Member, NASW-NYC Board of Directors
Dr. Jared Bernstein, former Chief Economic Advisor to Vice President Joseph Biden delivers the keynote address at the 2013 Annual Meeting.
"Every economist should first be a social worker."
This provocative assertion, first made by Jared Bernstein on HBO's Realtime with Bill Maher and repeated in the introduction to his keynote presentation, kick started the NASW-NYC Annual Meeting on May 9, 2013. Dr. Bernstein, PhD, MSW, is a Senior Fellow for the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, and before that he served as Chief Economist and Economic Advisor to Vice President Joe Biden.
Most importantly to the May 9th audience of 500, he began his career as a social worker helping poor people in New York City, and believes that "most economists and politicians haven't spent enough time in actual neighborhoods where people are just trying to get by. Social workers do just that, and therefore understand the context in which economic problems exist." He further stated that, when it comes to the economy, "it's time for us to get off the defense and go on the offense" to affect change.

Message from the President
All God's Children Need Shoes -
The Right Shoes
The Social Work Equity Project
Martha Adams Sullivan, DSW
Recently, I read of a teacher trying to explain to her very young students the difference between equity and equality. She gathered the class in a circle and asked everyone to take off one shoe. The shoes were collected. The shoes were then redistributed and everyone was then given a shoe. Only a couple of students received the mate to their other shoe. As you can guess, the group complained. The shoes they were given were too small, too large, made for the wrong foot, etc. They had difficulty walking and running. Some were able to manage with the shoe they received and some could not manage at all. The young students got it.
In effect, the children all were equal in that they had shoes, but only those who had shoes that fit were able to adequately walk and run, actually experiencing the value of having shoes.
Women's Equality is a Social Work Issue
Lauren Frederico, MSW, Organizer, New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU)
Editor's Note: The NYC Chapter has endorsed the Women's Equality Agenda, which is discussed below. Just before the newsletter was completed,Governor Cuomo introduced legislation to enact the agenda on June 5th.
During his state of the state address in January, Governor Cuomo announced plans to advance a ten point Women's Equality Agenda that seeks to break down multiple forms of gender based discrimination in New York. The proposal encompasses a wide range of issues including access to reproductive health care, pay equity, domestic violence and tenants' rights. Informed by conversations with service providers and advocacy groups across the state, the governor's office convened a group of 20 organizations, including the New York Civil Liberties Union, to lead the charge around the groundbreaking initiative. Since then, the agenda has garnered widespread support. To date more than 800 organizations from every corner of New York State, including NASW-NYC, have joined the New York Women's Equality Coalition. Together these groups are working together to raise awareness around the barriers impeding women's equality in New York.

Those are two tiny teeth in that young mouth. For good or ill, I make early teethers. Brother-Bug got his first tooth the day after he was four-months old. Sister-Bug was closer to the norm – around 6 months she had her teeth. Baby-Bug has them beat; he cut those first two teeth just days after he was three-months old.
A three-month old is really too little to be getting teeth. What kind of cruelty is it to send teething to someone who can't even hold a teething toy!?
For this young age, I pump some milk and freeze it in small cubes. We pop one in a mesh feeder and hold it while he cools his gums on the only flavor he likes. It's fairly effective.
When he starts to really cut his top teeth, he'll get a bone. We made ribs for dinner the other night and I saved two of the bones. They are clean and waiting in the freezer. A good, organic beef bone has things in it a baby can put to use if they scrape a little off on those sharp (so sharp! ow!) teeth. There are plenty of vitamins and minerals and all kinds of good nutrients in a beef bone. It's not plastic and it's filled with marrow instead of some unidentified colored fluid.
And now that we have teeth, we have to start taking care of them. Luckily a baby this age is into chewing on paper and fabrics. I soak a clean cloth in a mixture that is 1 part each hydrogen peroxide and xylitol, and 3 parts water and let him chew away. But I'm not too worried about until he starts eating. Breast milk won't rot baby teeth… Because wouldn't that be an error in design if it did?
I was hoping, really praying, that this baby would be a late teether…or at least an average age when those teeth popped through. Sigh. Thwarted again.

MANILA — In an effort to stabilize and define her two-week-old government, Philippine President Corazon Aquino today summoned her 18-member Cabinet to her new office at the Malacanang presidential palace for their first full session since they assumed office.
The meeting came in the face of increasing criticism from supporters of ousted President Ferdinand E. Marcos and the nation's leftist opposition that the new government lacks both direction and sufficient constitutional checks and balances. Several Cabinet members had hoped that after the session, Aquino would declare whether the government is "revolutionary" or one that will work within the framework of the existing 1973 constitution.
Instead, it was announced after the Cabinet meeting that Aquino's administration is setting up a study group to examine whether the government should be declared revolutionary or constitutional. Two other study groups will deal with economic matters and the appointment of local officials, the government said today.
Budget Deficit Forecast
During the meeting, Budget Minister Alberto Romulo told the Cabinet that the Philippine government budget will have a deficit estimated at 5 billion pesos ($250 million) in the first quarter this year because of heavy government spending during the recent election campaign.

Well, I'd better be rather brief as my views on this aren't going to shed any light on the OP's topic: "Origin of Thanissaro Bhikkhu's Meditation Method".
I hold with the earliest explanation of the phrase sabbakāyappaṭisaṃvedī, which is that of the Paṭisambhidāmagga.
Of modern approaches that are informed by the Paṭisambhidāmagga's understanding, I've found most helpful that in chapter 4 of Ajahn Buddhadāsa's Mindfulness with Breathing, the second of the ajahn's two books on ānāpānassati.How is it that he trains thus: 'I shall breathe in experiencing the whole body'; he trains thus: 'I shall breathe out experiencing the whole body?
Body: there are two bodies: the mental body and the material body.
What is the mental body? Feeling, perception, volition, contact, attention, and mentality are the mental body, and also what are called mind formations: these are the mental body.
What is the material body? The four great entities and the materiality derived by clinging from the four great entities, in-breath and out-breath and the sign for anchoring [mindfulness], and also what are called body formations: this is the material body.
Experiencing: for one who knows one-pointedness and non-distraction of mind through breathing in long, breathing out long, breathing in short, breathing out short, mindfulness is established. By means of that mindfulness and that knowledge those bodies are experienced.

I want to share some exciting news!
Today the WA Government announced a new Community Gardens Grants Program. $400,000 is available over four years to assist with the establishment or development of community gardens in WA.
I took a welcome break from my office this afternoon to join Local Government and Community Services Minister Tony Simpson, the Mayor and CEO from the City of Stirling, Department of Local Government and Communities staff, and local community gardeners at the always charming Joondanna Community Garden for the official announcement.
In addition to funding for individual gardens, grants can also go towards activities or initiatives that build the capacity of the WA community garden sector (think networking events, bus tours, training, and so on – like the support provided during the Growing Communities WA project).
Full details and application forms can be found on the Department of Local Government and Communities' website. The closing date for applications for the 2014 round of funding is 5pm Thursday 27 February 2014.
Social Fabric provides specialist advice and support services to new and established community gardens and their partners. If you'd like to know more check out the Community Gardens page or get in touch with me.

best pre-schools in Mumbai
Hello, I will be moving to Mumbai with my husband & 2-yr old son, and want to find a good pre-shool for him. We are looking into living in Bandra West & Juhu. Interested in Montessouri schools. I would greatly appreciate any input since I am totally new to the city...thank you!

I asked at the hotel if there was a central tourist area with shops here on Stokkøya. The lady behind the counter seemed amused. In a strange Norwegian dialect she told us of a grocery store on the island. Yes, we had passed this little store clinging to the cliff between the road and the sea on the way up here. If we want shops, she further explained, we'd need to go to Åfjord. I smiled. Åfjord is where our hytte is. There's about 10 stores there. It's the biggest city around. We are far from everything, near the end of the earth it seems.
The map shows the road continues to one more island. We must investigate. The road leads to a one-lane bridge from Stokkøya to Linesøya. The road is fenced with a motion-sensing gateway. I learned that these gates are to keep foxes off of the islands so they do not endanger bird populations. We followed the road, twisting through small farmlands – and sometimes right through small farms – until we came to the end of the road, a picnic table on a rocky outcropping at the end of the world. It felt lonely and desolate and yet somehow comforting. I think I could come to a place like this to die, to just fall off of the planet.
All in all, a gorgeous drive and a good outing. Back to our hytte for a few more games of Catan, hot dogs on the fire, and few a late night rounds of "monster" (hide and go seek, in the dark, with a slow-moving growling daddy-monster).
|The drive to Stokkøya is just amazing. These pics don't do it justice.
|Funky modern rooms to rent on the beach. We should do this next summer. Rent early I bet.
|Hot tubs to rent. No one renting this season!
|Mysterious fish part
|Brilliant texture. I like textures.
|Inflated sand dollar. Do they call them sandkroner in Norwegian? I wonder
|Anna must be part polar bear
|Maggie contemplating, as usual
|Peter is ready to attack!

Iraq urges at least one million bpd oil output cut
Iraqi Oil Minister Amer Rachid called Wednesday for an OPEC output cut of at least one million barrels per day, ahead of a meeting of the oil-producing cartel in Vienna.
"Our position will be we will ask for a one million barrel a day cut, at least," he said as he arrived for the meeting with energy chiefs of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries on Friday. "I'm sure we will get a consensus of something like one million barrels a day," he told reporters.
Iraq is a member of the 11-member cartel, but has not been part of OPEC's quota system since the 1991 Gulf War, after which the United Nations implemented an oil-for-food arrangement on its oil exports.
Rachid said that Iraq would approach "exports of around two million" barrels a day in March. Iraqi exports have been fitful at best since Baghdad implemented an embargo last year amid a row with the UN over pricing under the oil-for-food deal.
Kuwaiti Oil Minister Adel el-Sebeih however remain tight-lipped as he arrived in Vienna late Wednesday.
"We do not have a specific number," he said. "We have to wait until we have discussed with our colleagues."—AFP.

At Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) annual shareholders meeting last week, CEO Tim Cook reiterated that its board will consider expanding its plan to return cash to shareholders. The current plan has authorized up to $60 billion in share repurchases by the end of fiscal 2015, as well as a dividend of $12.20 per share per year.
Will Apple boost its plan for returning cash to shareholders? In the video below, Fool contributor Daniel Sparks explains why he thinks Apple will boost its dividend by 15%, at a minimum. He suggests another 15% would be perfectly reasonable considering that Apple is only paying out a fraction of earnings while still raking in loads of cash. Further, Daniel explains why he thinks Apple is an excellent dividend stock for long-term investors.
