A Link You Should Read!
Last week, The Young Adult Literature Journal posted a link on Facebook about YA writers from the past 10 years, and I thought it was an excellent source to for my Tuesday blog.
The link/article is a blog post on the top 10 prolific YA authors who changed the face of YA. Before I started reading YA, I pretty much only thought of V.C. Andrews and Judy Bloom because that's what I remembered from my own teen years. Is V.C. Andrews even YA? Probably not. Anyways, I had no clue YA was so great! I was reading Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook, etc.) just a couple of years ago, right before the first YA book I picked up...Twilight. And that was it. My love for YA was ignited. I have read about 250 books in the las 2 years and I can't stop--most of which have been YA!
Read the link and see if you agree with the listing of top 10 authors at Omnivoracious.
Also, some of the comments are very intersting as they explore the use of rating systems for YA (like movies). Some see it as censoring and others as a way to measure the maturity level. Some parents just want to know and some teens think a rating system wouldn't make a difference. Even I commented, but if you don't feel like scrolling through all the comments, here is what I have to say on the topic...
Look, us parents just want to know what's in the book. I am an avid YA reader, reviewer, and blogger. So I know what's out there and I love it all. But, do I want my 13 year old daughter to read about an extremely intimate act or book full of f-bombs? No. Will my "No" keep her from reading any YA book? No. Will I tell her not to read a certain book? No. But do I have the right as a parent to know the content of her book? Yes. And so does the reader whether he or she is 13 or 56. Book jackets do not say enough. Why not at least say whether a book has adult language or sexual scenes and how much of it. Mild? Strong? I'm not for censoring and I'm not for a rating system, but I am for honest facts about the books up-front. As it is now, it's a free for all when it comes to reading a book. There could be a reference or a whole passage devoted to oral sex and you wouldn't know unless you read it. If YA is going to push the bar of what is appropriate, then YA needs to spill the content of the book up front.

Ilona - your blog
Ilona, I have just caught up with your blog. I just love your trainers, and the framed picture. Unfortunately I have not found out how to respond on your blog!
Re: Ilona - your blog
Hi Spreckly. Just seen this, I've been away for a couple of days. At the bottom of each post is a box which says, Enter your comment, type your message into there. Underneath it asks, Comment as, click the little arrow and a drop down menu gives you choices. Anyone can comment by clicking on Anonymous. Another option is Name/url. Click on it, ignore url and just put your name in the box. Then click on Publish.
All comments go into my Awaiting moderation box, I read it first then publish it. I can delete the nasty comments, they don't get published.
Give it a try.
Re: Ilona - your blog
Thanks Ilona
Re: Ilona - your blog
Just read tonight's blog Ilona on coffee cups. It irritates me to see folk walking around with either a mobile phone attached to their ears, or a coffee cup in their hand, and your comments made me smile. It seems to be the trend.
We actually recycle our rather rare cuppas from Mc......ds, which we drink waiting for the shops to open on our weekly shopping trip. I explain - we travel to town early, do both supermarkets, then whip into town, where we park on the street. We actually get one and a half hours worth of free parking, as the time runs from nine am, for one hour. In the meantime, we either drink our Mc.....ds coffee, or go to a cafe, which is our weekly treat, I might add, and has the bonus of a WC.
Getting to the point, we take the coupon off our cup, take them home, wash them out, and as I said, recycle them as "money boxes" for our local church extension fund. OH prints out a sticker of the church, and an explanation of what the money is for. In just over a year, we have received our coffee cups back, with one hundred pounds collected from them. We originally bought them on ebay, but are using the recycled ones. With a slit cut in the plastic lid, they are ideal.
Re: Ilona - your blog
That's a good idea. Any ideas to reuse cups has got to be good. Eventually they might build more recycling plants which can cope with the composite cups, or make them out of cardboard only without the plastic.
Re: Ilona - your blog
Never miss an opportunity of a WC (especially if you have been drinking coffee)

Distributed Energy Ministerial Contact Group
The group comprises experts from academia, trade bodies, public sectors, and veterans from the distributed energy industry, as well as analysts and policy experts from across the Department of Energy & Climate Change (DECC).
Role of the group
The Distributed Energy Contact Group (DECG) was set up by Greg Barker as an informal advisory group, to ensure due consideration is paid to distributed energy suppliers and generators during this period of market change.
Terms of reference
The Electricity Market Reform White Paper made clear that distributed energy and local generation could have a much greater role to play, and should be seen as complementary to the wider centralised energy system. It also highlighted the importance of distributed energy for engaging consumers in their energy use and as an important step towards a more integrated and local approach that includes, for example, transport and waste. In line with this, the Government recognises the need to put in place the conditions to unlock its potential.
The Government Industry Contact Group on Distributed Energy is therefore being convened to monitor whether the framework which has been put in place is delivering the practical support intended, and to consider the barriers preventing distributed energy developing to its full potential. The Terms of Reference of the Contact Group are as follows:
- to build upon the framework contained in the White Paper by helping the Government identify the full potential of decentralised energy to support the objectives of the Electricity Market Review
- to help the government identify the barriers to decentralised energy delivering its full potential and the measures necessary to remove the barriers
Considering the benefits of distributed energy, the Contact Group will take as its starting point those which were set out in the White Paper, that:
- distributed energy can harness a wide range of smaller-scale renewable and low-carbon energy sources, so contributing to the decarbonisation of electricity and security of supply
- as it is local, it lends itself to community involvement and investment, and it can also reduce the need for transmission network reinforcement, since the electricity produced by distributed electricity generation is normally consumed locally
- distributed energy can act, especially when combined with community-scale heat storage, as an alternative to heat being generated from electricity, and therefore help manage demand on the electricity system - there is also potential for this heat storage to be charged by excess electricity generation resulting in further opportunities for demand side response
The Contact Group will also take as its starting point the barriers to distributed energy as being those which were alluded to in the White Paper, that:
- for independent generators including new entrants in particular, there is difficulty obtaining viable routes to market that meet their commercial needs and allow them to benefit from the Feed-in-Tariff (FiT CfD) and some capacity mechanism options
- for decentralised electricity generators and suppliers, there is difficulty managing the risks, costs and complexities associated with participation in the electricity wholesale and retail markets - some of these risks are outlined in the White Paper, including off take risks, balancing risks, credit terms, price risk associated with exposure to movements in wholesale and fuel prices and basis risk, being the market price achievable by the generator relative to the reference price in FiT CfD contracts
There is a need to quantify the extent and effect of these benefits and barriers, including with reference to others not referred to in the White Paper. In doing so, the objective of the Contact Group is, with a clear understanding of the direction of travel, to secure the place of distributed energy within the reformed structure of the energy market.

Unverified Voracity Punches Whales, Not Dolphins
Hey folks. Hope you had a pleasant holiday. I did except for my hard drive dying, then beeping alarmingly, then resurrecting itself. Either I need a new computer or I should hand over this hard drive to SCIENCE so all can benefit from this discovery. Probably the former. Anyway…
Merry Christmas. Stauskas attempts to hit 90% from three, does:
I like to have this man on a basketball team I like.
A non-ringing non-endorsement. Hoke on the Big Ten expanding:
Michigan coach Brady Hoke suspects it won't end there.
"It's probably not finished," he said Thursday in Tampa during a segment with Michigan Radio.
Although Hoke offered no dissension toward expansion, he also didn't endorse it.
"Is it a positive? I think it's the world we live in right now," he said. "As coaches, we have no say in anything, I want you to know. The presidents make those decisions -- people way up in the food chain. But I doubt it's done."
Bo is spinning in his grave right now. As I've mentioned before, at this point I'm all for further expansion since Big Ten Old and Big Ten New (And Purdue Or Something) is a much better setup than seeing Iowa and Wisconsin and whoever else once every million years.
Meanwhile, Michigan's moving to a third hotel Monday for some reason.
Hoke quote, epic variety. Is here:
Hoke on Denard & Kovacs: "So we have a distant cousin of Bob Marley and an accountant as our captains."
Cumong man. Very frustrating to hear Will Campbell speak of his laziness early in his career:
"When I was younger, I was lazy," Campbell said. "I didn't listen as much, I didn't take everything in like I should of. There were people around me telling me, too -- it was just me not doing it."
That's one thing recruiting rankings will always struggle to encompass. Jonathan Hankins couldn't get through three consecutive reps when he hit Michigan's camp as a rising senior, but got it together and turned into a beast. Campbell had that famous picture where he's all throwing guys all over the place…
…and then he doesn't really do much until he's a senior and by then we're just happy when he's okay. Meanwhile, repetition of theme about redshirting: RR threw Campbell on the field as a true freshman despite the fact he was patently unready, and now both Michigan and Campbell probably wish they'd have one more year together in which Campbell improved on his 2012 and maybe moved into the middle rounds of the draft. The redshirt forever.
On the other hand. Will Campbell on his beach day:
It's hard out here. I done fought two sharks, wrassled a sting ray, ate two crabs--had butter out there. It's hard out here but you know how we do it, I'm from Detroit. You know, it was nothing. Two great whites, punched a whale in the face... easy day. Go Blue.
He has never lacked for entertainment. The entire segment is pretty fantastic:
Also in this category. Brendan Gibbons on pirates:
Michigan placekicker Brendan Gibbons grew up a big Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan, and has always dreamed of playing at Raymond James Stadium.
Of course, he has a perfectly logical reason for loving the Bucs.
"I like pirates," he said.
Unfortunately, we are doomed since Gibbons no longer looks like Keith Stone.
Made with weed and torn ACLs. A reader sends along a shot of a micorbrewery in Coralville, Iowa, with a very special Extra Special Bitter:
Other than the relatively low alcohol content, perfect.
Exit bizarre decision guy. MSU wing forward Brandan Kearney announced he was leaving a few days ago, leaving Izzo to grasp his hair alarmingly($) and dance on the edge of calling Kearney a danger to society:
One of the more bizarre things I've been involved with in coaching. Came back from Christmas and (he) just informed me he thinks he's better off going somewhere else. Not really happy with his role, you know. Wants more role, wants to score more, wants to do this more, wants to do that more. I gotta admit, it was a little strange for me and the players when a guy's playing 17 minutes a game, but at the same time it's gonna open it up maybe for another guy.
Thus ends what was, in retrospect, one of the most overblown recruiting controversies in Michigan basketball history: Carlton Brundidge vs Brandan Kearney. Answer: neither, and nobody in state. Unless I missed a guy from outside the Rivals 150 who is blowing up Amir Williams is the only guy from that instate recruiting class doing anything at a major school at the moment. Michigan did get a guy named Trey Burke that year, so that recruiting class something less than a total loss.
As for the departure's impact, Kearney was playing about 40% of MSU's minutes but when the going got tough those dwindled to 6-9 per game. He was a quality defender with little offensive game; MSU will probably revert to the twin towers lineup they had scrapped earlier in the year in an apparently futile effort to cut down on turnovers. I'm not sure Kearney's departure is worth much—maybe a game—but in a brutal big ten every little bit helps, or hurts as the case may be.
Oh for pants' sake. One side of the story and all that but a former Louisville player has sued UL for cancelling his scholarship mid-year after
- two teammates attacked him in the locker room and broke bones around one of his eyes (they were later charged with assault and kicked off the team)
- he was told not to tell the doctor and other folks how he sustained those injuries
- a doctor told him to stop playing football after problems with his eyes
Cancelling a scholarship mid-year is against NCAA regulations, FWIW…
Mid-year cancellations must be for specific reasons in the NCAA bylaws or for violating a term of the scholarship agreement. Any cancellation or non-renewal requires the student-athlete to be provided written notice from the financial aid office and a hearing opportunity.
…and it seems like they could easily have medicaled the guy. I'm sure Strong and Louisville have their side of the story. Looks ugly.
As more money flows into the top echelons of the sport it's time to ask why the NCAA has such strict limits on scholarships issued. If a team wants to carry 100 scholarship players, why not let them? All of this oversigning business would be done tomorrow if the NCAA would restructure revenue sports in such a way as to encourage retention instead of attrition, as a hard cap does.
In the barn. The following six true freshman have enrolled early:
- OT Logan Tuley-Tillman
- OG Kyle Bosch
- CB Ross Douglas
- S Dymonte Thomas
- DE Taco Charlton
- TE Jake Butt
For Douglas, Bosch, and Butt the early enrollment should give them a better shot at early playing time. With the thin interior OL it's not out of the question that Bosch is in the mix to play from day one despite being an OL. Douglas will probably have to wait a year with Countess/Avery/Taylor in front of him but the fourth guy will get PT and the race is on for that spot. Thomas may play some as well; Charlton and LTT seem like obvious redshirt candidates.
All but out of the barn. Taylor Lewan:
"I have an idea what I'm doing. I'm almost positive what I'm doing. But at the end of the day, this bowl game doesn't have to do with what I'm going through. ... I'm playing football on Tuesday, Jan. 1, and I'll make my decision, and I'll talk to the coaches about it, and then we'll obviously go from there and what they want to do to get it out.
Is there something that could change his mind?
"No," Lewan said. "No."
So long and thanks for all the fish.
It all worked out. Followup on "how to schedule nonconference games": Michigan did pretty well this year despite the Binghamton game. They approach the finish line of their nonconference slate 15th nationally after playing 5 major teams and avoiding the very bottom of D-I with the exception of the Bearcats. Their peripheral numbers should be good come tourney time after slogging through the brutal Big Ten, and that'll give them a leg up on anyone with around the same record not named Duke when S-curves are plotted.
Fight. James Young vs. Derrick Walton, go:
Walton is ripping opponents for 30-40 points a game these days to go along with the point guard stuff. There will necessarily be a dip when Burke is gone next year; it may not be a huge one.
Etc.: Elliott Mealer reminisces about the bad thing. Tony Dungy drops in on Michigan. Chad Ford declares Trey Burke "firmly planted in the first round"($), so godspeed Mr. Burke. Going I-A: Why? Stop. Don't. Joe Lundardi has Iowa the last team in, Iowa fans excited. Craig Roh is about to break the Michigan record for consecutive starts.

Have you ever wondered what distinguishes a good student from a mediocre one ? I have. And I have found 7 common mistakes that every student should correct to improve their efficiency and their grades. Here they are.
Mistake #1 : Studying Passively
This one is the most time consuming of the seven. Most students just keep repeating the information with the hopes that it will stick. This is a poor way to learn. In order to study actively, you must try to recall the information without looking at it. If you succeed to do it once, you know it and you can move on.
Mistake #2 : Not Setting A Time Limit
If you don't set a limit to your studying session, it will just stretch until it eats all of your day. Ideally, you should study in short bursts (no more than 1 hour) and set a goal for each one of them.
Mistake #3 : Starting To Study Too Late
This mistake leads to long days and all-nighters of work. It is best to spread your study sessions over weeks than cramming all of your courses the day before. This way it will stick longer and you'll have much less stress.
Mistake #4 : Taking Passive Notes
The goal of the process of note-taking is not just to transcribe what the teacher says on your paper. If you do this, you'll have a hard time at home to go over all of your notes and you'll waste a lot of time. You should process and understand the information the first time you encounter it. Nothing goes on your paper unless you understand it.
Mistake #5 : Studying In Groups
When we are in a group, the temptation to chat is too high for this activity to be viable. You should do the majority of your work alone and only when you have a problem you can't resolve on your own should you ask a friend for help.
Mistake #6 : Not Understanding One's Courses In Their Globality
What happens when you know perfectly how to derive a function but don't know what is the use of it or even when to do it ? You can't adapt your knowledge to other problems and you get a bad grade. You should watch for connections between the ideas you learn in a course, what is the bigger structure and what is the place of every concept.
Mistake #7 : Not Focusing When Studying
This one leads to what some people call "pseudo-studying". It consumes all of your time and you get very little done. You should work in a silent place without your phone or any internet connection around. Every time you get disturbed you loose precious minutes of work to get back into what you were doing.
This article is only a sample of all the things you can do to improve your studying skills. One of the best books out there to learn how to become a successful student is called "How To Become A Straight-A Student" by Cal Newport. If you want to go further into this topic, this is the one I would recommend you get.
Have a nice day !

Yes you are seeing correctly, we did a science experiment. I took a common experiment, added in a mini lesson on inferences and tied that to the idea of a hypothesis. Students then did an experiment, used visualization and even wrote a science report. Yup....I just said science report!!!
Sometimes I find it challenging to get my students with disabilities to write, but they were more than happy to write these reports. Hope this gives you some great ideas on ways to create some lessons that will get your students writing and using skills they have learned.

Cougar Red Readers
Started in spring 2015 Cougar Red Readers was the marriage of Houston Independent School District's Read Houston Read program and the University of Houston's legacy of connecting with the 3rd Ward community. University of Houston student athletes read to 2nd and 3rd grade students at Blackshear Elementary, a neighboring 3rd Ward grade school, for the sake of literacy. Student athletes engage the elementary students creating a fun-filled interactive story time that helps them learn to love reading. It's been shown that if by the time a student reaches the 3rd grade and they are not reading at or above their grade level it can lead to lifelong struggles with learning. Cougar Red Readers is an effort to combat illiteracy and increase chances of lifelong success, while emphasizing the importance of higher education.
For more information on the Cougar Read Readers program contact the Athletics Program Coordinator at email@example.com

Just what style of art specifically do you personally do? Do you want to share your art creations with other people? No matter what kind of crafts you're into, this article can help you see the available options. It's always time to take your hobby to the next level, so prepare yourself for another step in the right direction.
Do you want to locate supplies? Lots of online outlets provide terrific prices on craft materials. Do a search and see what kind of deals you can find on the materials you need. Often, they offer free shipping, too.
Have you been seeking a new place to find art supplies? There are a lot of sites that give you great savings on your craft supplies. Whatever you're looking for, simply do a quick search online and you'll find great discounts. Some of the better stores even provide free shipping to save even more.
Don't push kids too much when doing projects in arts and crafts. The whole point of getting them involved is to let them express their creativity. If you're constantly correcting them, it will be harder for them to be more creative.
Arts and crafts will make a mess; cover surfaces with paper to avoid damage. After your project is complete, discard the papers and have no worries.
Keep in mind that arts and crafts with kids are going to be messy. If you find that to be stressful, make sure all surfaces are covered with newspaper first. Materials that can be washed off, such as adhesives or washable markers, can also be used.
Stores specializing in beads offer the necessary supplies to make lovely, custom pieces of jewelry. You'll find everything from beads, clasps, findings, instruction books and much more. Costume jewelry is very popular in today's fashion scene. You can coordinate your wardrobe and save money by crafting your own.
If you have difficulty locating supplies at decent prices, check out thrift stores. They often have items which your creativity can turn into a project. You need to go regularly, since the merchandise turns over often.
When crafting with children, don't show them examples of exactly what you think the project should look like. You should avoid examples so kids can create things themselves. To illustrate, they may come up with ways to paint or glue something that didn't occur to you. It is important to allow them to express their creativity.
If your kids are engaging in arts and crafts, remember that they do not have to follow a concrete example of what the project should look like. Allow the kids to use their own creativity and imaginations. They can play with their faces like Picasso, for example. Their imagination is important.
Seek new ideas out on the web. If you are looking to start a project, look for ideas online. No matter how old the participants are, you can find a family art project on the Internet.
Etsy is a great place to purchase the supplies for arts and crafts projects. These are on sale from lots of individuals. You can buy supplies, and you can also sell what you make there, too! This is the perfect place to connect with other individuals who enjoy arts and crafts and perhaps learn a few things from them.
If you want to find inexpensive materials to make crafts with, Etsy is one of the best Internet sites out there. Individuals sell items through this site. You can buy supplies and even sell what you make there. The site is great if you need unusual or vintage items for crafting.
Be sure the supplies you use for arts and crafts projects are organized. There are lots of ways to store them, so find something that works best for you. When your supplies are organized, it's easier for you to find the things you need. Also, being organized will help you see everything you have.
Organize all your art and craft supplies. Put your stuff away any way you wish. It is much easier to get your hands on the items you need when all of the supplies are well organized. You also will be able to do easy inventory in your head.
Many kids enjoy arts and crafts. If you know a big group of kids, find a project they are sure to find enjoyable. Check online for inspiration, if you need some help.
If you've got a cloudiness to your mosaic after the mortar is dried, try to wipe the mosaic clean with a rag sprayed with glass cleaner. You don't want the powder to ruin your project, and it's hard to get out it you wait.
If you want free supplies for crafting materials, look through your very own kitchen for items. It is full of gems waiting to be turned into fabulous arts and crafts. You can use glass jars, tin foil, metal cans and many other objects. You can use beans or uncooked pasta as supplies.
Children thoroughly enjoy making crafts and different art creations. Think about what project to start by thinking about the participants. If you lack ideas, check the Internet or ask your friends.
Crafts are great for entertaining lots of adults and kids. Regardless of age levels, there really are projects that will suit everyone. There are many places that will give you inspiration to come up with different projects, one of them being online.
If you're trying to pick up oil painting and you mess up, no worries! Simply paint over the mess up on the canvas. Oil is flexible, and the surface will not be harmed by extra coats. It may even add some depth to your new project!
Before starting on a particular craft project, check that you have all of the needed supplies. Having to stop to get things is tedious. Write a list detailing each item you need before starting the project.
Ensure you have the necessary supplies before starting a project. It's never fun to begin a project and have to stop because you lack needed supplies for completing it. Double check your supply list before you start your project for best results.
If you are handy with arts and crafts, start making presents, rather than buying them. All through the year, you can enhance your gifts with personalization, then give them out during the holidays. You can save money and give a personally created gift at the same time.
Use a Spirograph set to show kids how patterns in drawings work. This shows children how patterns work.
If you want to give children hours of fun with learning how to use different colors and lines together, get them a Spirograph. Seeing the pens slide around the patterns while you follow the various shapes lets your kids know how wave patterns operate.
Whenever you engage kids with arts and crafts, try and turn it into an opportunity to learn. For example, teach simple math skills when reading directions or following instructions.
Consider placing an ad asking for craft supplies. Your discoveries might just surprise you! Other people may be trying to sell of give away whatever it is you are looking for, so you won't be able to beat the price.
It is important to take your time when working on an arts and crafts project. You can't rush projects. Quality means taking our time. If you don't give it enough time, then you won't be doing it any justice. Set aside ample time for every project, and the difference will stand out to you and everyone else.
You should give yourself the time you will need to do crafts. You should not rush your projects. High quality comes from being able to devote time and attention to the work. If you did not devote the right amount of time to a project, it will be evident in the outcome. So put in the time and you'll really see the difference.
You probably want to start using the advice from this article. The urge may even be overwhelming. Well, what are you waiting for? Creating arts and crafts projects is a lot of fun, and you will enjoy it more as you get better at it.
If you are planning a model car project for your child, make sure it's age appropriate. Models that snap together are great for smaller kids, while those that require gluing and painting are best for older ones.

Reclamation – Draft #1
[Draft from 2009, updated for 2013 and pushed to the front. There'll be an update entry in the future, likely a bit longer. This particular piece, which maps closely to memories of dreams and the actual encounter, has haunted me for some time.]
They say you can never go back home.
So not true.
At night, in dreams, I've gone back to my childhood home a half a dozen-hundred times. The original house was a small, flat-roofed two bedroom on 20 acres in the western foothills of Mt. Hood. On nocturnal replay, it's gained vast tracts of open or forested land, secret rooms, extra stories and half stories, escape hatches to rooftop solariums, and back staircases designed to foil burglars by leading upward into the basement. It's been a rambling overgrown mansion in a rainforest–like a gothic Mayan temple. It once had a room next to the chimney for a giraffe who never slept at home because of the coyotes. Our big black lab Cinder is always there and ever dependable and my dad is almost never a son of a bitch, and when he is I remember that I can fly. Or use the escape hatch. In my dreams, these mods were exactly as they should be and I remembered them.
You dream something often enough, you feel compelled to check reality.
Ten years ago, on the way back from a wedding near Mt. Hood, I convinced Deborah that we should swing by the homestead and check that the house had remained one story and had not become the rambling hideout to a worldwide crime organization or been dozed and replaced with a log castle.
We took the left off US 26 W onto McCabe road, left on Dowling road, still gravel, and down the bent hairpin towards our old drive, formerly end of the road for city traffic (and now 22800 SE 476th Ave–Ave!**). I saw the familiar farms and creek and woods. I saw new mini mansions but wasn't surprised–the view goes all the way to Mt. Rainer on a good day and Mt. St. Helens on the average day. Time has made it a rich man's view.
And then, as the cutbank above the road smoothed out I saw 20 acres that had turned its back on the view and the neighbors. Alder and fir had reclaimed the berry fields and hid the house. The driveway entrance was gated and locked and partly bound up in goldenrod and Scotch broom.
We just sat for a bit. I pointed out that the place had Please Trespass written all over it. Very pregnant with soon-be-Sophie, Debby propped her feet up and told me to take the hammer from under the driver's seat.
I jumped the gate and almost onto a red ant fortress–unchallenged, they had built three trembling, waist-high mounds with border patrols that I considered stomping then, thinking of Debby, skipped over. I lingered past the old apple tree that once held our tire swing and our best apples, collapsed but still in bloom (like a murdered bride I think now). Those changes didn't set me back. They seemed like normal symptoms of age and abandonment. It was the shadowy tunnel of fir trees where there'd been none, too damn tall and knit together. Hungry trees that had eaten the strawberry field and now swallowed the crunch of gravel under my feet, right up to the dark mouth of the old garage that had been our robber's haunt and now felt more like Shelob's lair. Well, Shelob's a fictional character. I used a stick to whip down the biggest webs, peered through the brown streaked window in the back, and saw part of a porch. I knocked out the window and wall underneath and squeezed through.
The house was on its way to becoming a hillock. Small trees grew out of the roof. Blackberry and moss clung to the walls which had been painted or faded to a flat grey. The big ash–old when I was young–had snapped and crushed the front steps. Someone had pushed a refrigerator through the floor of the front porch. There was no front door. Well, it was still my old home. I skittered up the trunk and over the fridge, stuck my head in the doorway, and called out a pretty gutsy hello.
My next memory is standing just inside my old bedroom, where fir and ash limbs had broken in and dropped seeds that sprouted between the floorboards and become the most magical page in Where the Wild Things Are–all I needed was a wolf suit.
For about 10 seconds. Then I saw how blackberry vines had pulled the big picture window off the living room wall and pushed up through the fireplace hearth where we used to lay on cold evenings. A moldy overstuffed chair piled with newspaper faced out of the hole. [Needs more here…]
I could hear spiders skitter, and saw no spiders. An old white range had sunk partway into the kitchen floor. My parents' bedroom doorway was a dark blank rectangle. I'd have to pass it to reach Dad's old workroom in the back with his reloading bench (a favorite entry point in my dreams to secret areas of the house) .
Surreal dreams of familiar places are one thing. When dream and reality cuddle, two choices came to mind: split (psychosis) or skeedaddle. Mildly freaked, I skeedaddled. At the bottom of driveway I told Debby there was no reason to come back. Ever.
Now I wish I'd stayed a little longer. I wish I'd brought a camera. I would have taken photos, pasted them in a book, and written long captions of memories from my childhood about each location (where we ran through the foaming mud when they dug our well; where my dad hit my mom with his fist and she bounced a kettle off his head; where we faced down a pack of feral dogs; where my brother, my dad and I lay stargazing on summer nights while coyotes prowled at the edge of the yard); then added fractured memories from my Return Home dreams. Because the house I broke into was devoid of memory, devoid of anything but a forest that was much quieter than any I remember. I don't think I've dreamt of it since then. I think I need one more trip, with the camera. I already have the captions. It's worth it to go back, so that I can see more clearly going forward.
I also wish I had $200k and a bulldozer.
** On a map that now resembles no childhood memory or photo, or adult dream, and is barely a memory of that visit but is just close enough in terrain and house placement for me to identify. So you can go back, just not in Google Earth.

Researchers in the U.S. have developed a blood test that could help clinicians detect abusive head trauma in infants, sometimes referred to as shaken baby syndrome.
The blood test can be used to detect acute intracranial hemorrhage, or bleeding of the brain, caused by abusive head trauma, reports the study, published in JAMA Pediatrics.
In 30 percent of cases, abusive head trauma is missed due to inaccurate information from families or guardians, or nonspecific symptoms such as vomiting or fussiness in infants.
The more quickly a child is diagnosed and treated, the less likely they are to suffer serious consequences such as permanent brain damage or learning difficulties.
The test, designed for young infants, uses a tiny amount of blood. It is based on a formula combining three biomarkers and a measure of levels of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen in the blood.
Evaluated in 599 infants, the scientists' "BIBIS" ("Biomarkers for Infant Brain Injury Score") formula correctly detected intracranial hemorrhage caused by abusive head trauma in approximately 90 percent of cases, compared to a rate of around 70 percent for clinical judgment, the study reports.
The blood test could become a valuable complementary tool in the process of establishing a clinical diagnosis -- particularly in cases where symptoms are unclear -- and in helping medical practitioners decide whether brain imaging is necessary to locate the hemorrhage.

text: Newbery Medalist Paterson turns her talents and considerable experience as a religious educator to interpreting the life of Jesus in a style that children will understand. In a gentle, simply told fashion, Paterson begins her interpretation with the metaphor of the light of the world before introducing Mary and presenting the angel's announcement of her forthcoming child. The author continues her well-written narrative in chronological order, focusing on Christ's ministry and his disciples, with some simple explanations of the political situation that led to Christ's crucifixion. The story of Jesus is necessarily shortened within this framework, leaving out some key incidents such as Christ's baptism, but the coherent and smoothly told text succeeds in conveying a powerful and understandable story. Roca's illustrations, previously used as illustrations in a French volume of a similar nature, are just as polished and accessible as the text, with the individualistic faces and costumes of the characters making them seem like real people. Interestingly, Jesus as an adult is always shown from behind or at a distance, making him a character that readers must interpret for themselves. (Nonfiction. 4-8)

As like the meeting with Freaky Daddy, my next encounter proved just as secretive. The date was August 15, 2010. I received a telephone call from OHH. He said I should get my camera and meet him at his office within the hour. He said that Jebediah Buzzard was passing through the area and had a few moments to spare was willing to speak with me. The only thing I knew about Jebediah was he was instrumental in providing security for The Skeptics during their U.S. tours. OHH explained that Jebediah had become well known for his unique skills and was in high demand. OHH said it wasn't easy procuring Jebediah's services and THe Skeptics were very fortunate to have him on their staff, especially given the venues Freaky Daddy had procured for their tours. Having someone like Jebediah on-board was where OHH's rich background came in handy. They knew each other well. In fact, they had traveled together a few times while OHH was touring and giving lectures on Maryland folklore, another one of OHH's areas of expertise. Both OHH and Jebediah would pair up during a few summers and tour the Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia region. Though Jebediah conducted much of his work in and around Arkansas, his friendship with OHH soon had him expanding his territory of operation. Jebediah has several homes and spends time in each location.
When I arrived at OHH's office, he rushed me back out the door and said we had little time to waste. Our destination was about an hour away. We would be heading towards western Maryland to a tract of land in a remote area. Arriving, we parked my car and proceeded on foot along a trail for another hour. We then came upon what appeared to be private property. I couldn't see any building from where we were, but knew we were on someone's property because of a nearby fence. OHH stopped us along side a path and said we would now wait.
About 30 minutes passed as we sat in silence. And then, I could hear the faint sound of an musical instrument. I stared in that direction as the sound grew near. It wasn't long before Jebediah appeared:
It should be noted that in recent years, Jebediah has become a regular on Moster Madhouse , a show based in Virginia that promotes monster films of yesteryear. He also hosts his own show Fright Time FunHouse .

Wilbur Ingalls, 89, of Petoskey, passed away Thursday, Nov. 29, 2012.
Wilbur was born in Petoskey on Dec. 23, 1922, to Thomas F. and Nora (Kemp) Ingalls. He attended Lincoln School and Petoskey High School. After losing his mother at the age of 12, he lived with a paternal aunt for several years in Central Lake, before returning to Petoskey at about the age of 16.
He found employment at the Old Lites Restaurant and shortly thereafter met the girl who was to become his wife, Doris Whitney. They married on Dec. 31, 1942, and one month later, Wilbur was drafted into the Army.
After basic training, he served in the 72nd Division in several different bases and was sent to the European Theater in April of 1943. He liked to joke about the fact the Doris spent their honeymoon in a defense plant and he spent his in Europe. At the time of the invasion of France, he had the opportunity to volunteer for the Rangers, with whom he spent the rest of World War II. During that time, Wilbur was engaged in four major battles, but by the grace of God, was never seriously injured.
After returning to Petoskey, Wilbur went to work for the Petoskey Portland Cement company, later Penn Dixie, and worked there for 40 years. Wilbur built their home on Pleasant Street, where he and Doris raised their family of five children, James (Judy) Ingalls, Donna (Delbert) Dunshee, Daniel (Cynthia) Ingalls, Nancy (John) Mania, and Patrick (Anne) Ingalls. He is also survived by nine grandchildren, Theresa and Louis Ingalls, Lisa, Mark and Tara Dunshee, Shannon and Jeffery Ingalls, and Daniel and Christina Ingalls, as well as by 13 great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren.
In the years following World War II, the Ranger Battalions stayed in close contact and met for reunions every two years, which he and Doris always tried to attend. Wilbur said many times "Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger" and he was proud of that.
A funeral service celebrating Wilbur's life will take place at 2 p.m. today, Monday, Dec. 3, at the First Christian Church in Petoskey, where Wilbur had been a member for more than 70 years.
Memorials may be directed to the First Christian Church or to your local VFW organization.

ROBIN HOOD: THE LEGENDARY MUSICAL COMEDY by Kieren MacMillan, Jeremy Hutton, William Foley, Jesse MacLean, Kevin MacPherson and Kate Smith (Hart House Theatre, 7 Hart House Circle). To January 26. $25, stu/srs $15. 416-978-8849. See listing. Rating: NNNN
The year is still young, of course, but of the couple of dozen shows I've seen so far, the biggest theatrical surprise of 2013 has been this pee-your-pants-funny musical version of the Robin Hood story.
Featuring the same irreverence as Monty Python and the South Park team, this silly story about the tights-loving hero (Daniel James), his Merry Men (not all of them men, but most of them merry) and that dastardly duo of Prince John (Kevin MacPherson) and the Sheriff of Nottingham (William Foley) leaps from the stage with a clever book, catchy songs and more inspired choreography (by Ashleigh Powell) than shows with much bigger budgets. (We're looking at you, Wizard Of Oz.)
Originally produced by Halifax's Shakespeare by the Sea in 2005 and then tweaked and sharpened in 2007-8, the show takes aim not just at the timely story of a bandit stealing from the 1 per cent to redistribute among the overtaxed masses, but at the musical comedy genre itself. That explains the Les Mis-style act-one closer - complete with flag-waving - and one song that seems an homage to Team America: World Police's I'm So Ronery.
Most of the gags in the book hit their marks, and the lyrics are frequently inspired. I particularly liked the play on "ingénue" and "ingenuity" in a duet between Maid Marian (Jennifer Morris) and Will Scarlet (Kelly McCormack). The varied score is harmonically rich, especially the title number, which, like the rest of the show, is performed by the band with verve.
Jesse MacLean's direction is sharp and precise, and he gets solid work not just from his principals - MacPherson and Foley make an ace comedy team as the bumbling baddies, while James is suitably self-involved as the title character - but from the chorus, too, many of whom quickly morph from generic "poor people" to "goons" to bandits whose names include Len, Glen, Glen (yup, there are two) and Sven (scene stealer Simon Rainville).
With any luck, some savvy producer will pick up this Hart House Theatre production for a remount. With a few nips and tucks, it could enjoy a long life.

Less than a tenth of the underwater search area for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight remains to be scoured, while the possibility of a fresh lead has been ruled out.
It emerged late on Wednesday that debris had washed up on a beach 10 kilometres east of Augusta, about 320km south of Perth and near Australia's most southwestern tip.
A member of the public stumbled across the items, which were handed to Busselton police, who sent photos to the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) for examination.
ATSB chief commissioner Martin Dolan immediately played down the find, saying the objects were "sufficiently interesting" enough to require scrutiny, but adding: "The more we look at it, the less excited we get."
Mr Dolan told CNN the debris appeared to be sheet metal with rivets.
And by Thursday morning, the ATSB had concluded there was nothing to indicate the items were wreckage from the lost Boeing 777.
"We want to pursue every possible lead that will help us find MH370, but sadly this is one that isn't going to help that search," Mr Dolan told ABC Radio in Perth.
The Joint Agency Co-ordination Centre (JACC), led by former defence chief Angus Houston, later confirmed the ATSB was satisfied the debris was not a fresh lead.
JACC said up to 11 military aircraft and 11 ships were expected to visually search an area of almost 50,000 square kilometres, centred 1584 kilometres northwest of Perth, for debris on Thursday.
But before the planes depart, weather conditions will be assessed as ex-Tropical Cyclone Jack moves south.
The weather forecast is for heavy rain and low cloud, with southeasterly winds up to 35 knots, sea swells of three to four metres and visibility of one kilometre.
MH370 vanished en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8 with 239 people on board.

(Adds comments)
BANGKOK, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Thailand's central bank is prepared to "take care of" the situation if the baht currency changes too fast and affects the private sector, it said on Friday.
The currency is strengthening "quite fast" against the U.S. dollar at the beginning of 2018, Deputy Governor Mathee Supapongse said in a statement.
"If the currency changes so quickly that it affects adaptability of the private sector, the central bank is ready to take care of it," Mathee said.
He added that the appreciation of the baht was in line with regional currencies and was a result of a weakening dollar, along with inflows of capital into the region.
Later on Friday, Deputy Prime Minister Somkid Jatusripitak told reporters the Thai economy "is improving a lot".
"Direct investment and investors in capital markets is high," he said. "This is not only in Thailand. We expect growth momentum to reach Asia, Asian stocks are up and so the baht is strengthening with regional peers."
The Thai economy depends significantly on exports, which have been under pressure from the baht's strength.
In 2017, during which exports increased, the baht strengthened more than 9 percent against the dollar.
On Friday, the baht touched its strongest in 39 months, at 32.14 against the dollar.
The central bank has forecast economic growth of 3.9 percent for 2017 and 2018. Growth in 2016 was 3.2 percent. The 2017 growth numbers will be released next month.

Custom fields in wordpress is a surprise, with custom post type wordpress suddenly become the first choice for out-of-box CMS system.
There are many plugin around, the most of them require some medium level PHP skill to change template or theme.
Some cool plugins like Custom Post type UI, just custom post type and advanced custom type. But those plugin still have one problem to solve, how to make the input UI easier to use. One common problem is in the input screen, custom field displayed twice, and still give user flexibility to add other custom fields.
Custom field template suppose fix it, but it seems still need PHP code change somewhere.
Magic fields 2 solved this problem eventual, by introducing some style middle tables at backend, the admin UI looks much cleaner. And data storage is still in post_metadata.

If anyone has used a broker to import a car from the US, how much did it cost?
Man, caribana this weekend woke me up as to how cheap cars are in the states. Everyone has something. I'm seeing Aston V8 Vantages for under 70k US, 911 GT3's for around the same. Crazy. I don't mind driving the car over, but I'd like someone to take care of the paperwork. What am I looking at?
whats caribana have to do with US cars?
They're all rentals or leases anyways! :p
I charge a $2000 brokerage fee normally, but my service includes everything including you being able to buy the car at wholesale. I take care of the importing, shipping, licensing and delivery to the customer!
that's not bad at all!
2000$ for everything done and dealt with, and the biggest/best part of that deal is he can get you a car at wholesale price!
In my opinion, if you can dish out a few days on you're own, you can go up and find a nice private sale and you can also handle the paperwork! It's not a hell of a lot, it's just the process and steps that need to be correct and planned out before time.
regarding the 2k that sounds very reasonable. What other costs will I be looking at? So if I see a car for 65k US, and it doesn't need any modifications (when I look in the RIV list it doesn't give me any stipulations), aside from the 2k canadian I pay you, what else do I need to do/pay? Thanks
Wholesale, in the sense of a used car! Private sale is a Private sale, you deal with the person for the total price, and a broker will do the rest.
RIV doesn't give specific's like that! My suggestion to you is to call the headquarters of the make you want directly and ask them for what mods need to be done for it to be admissable in Canada. Every car is different. Worst serive is probably from Benz!
But like the OP said, some crazy nice cars for cheap in the states nowadays!
oh, so I just tell the broker what I'm looking for and he'll find a car for me? Sweet. Regarding the RIV, I put the cars name in and theres this thing that comes up and says if its admissible. For example, the GT3 will need the carpet cut out over some part...and so on, but I will def do the work to find out if my car is legal. I want an Aston V8 in a couple years!
It's all included! I buy every car like I'm buying it for myself. Only the best, even if I have to spend a little more, it's worth it in the end to get the best vehicle available.
There's just duty to pay, ac tax, and riv fee... We take care of the modifacations needed to register any car on Canadian soil.
And our customers win big, with the huge savings from US cars and no hassles of importing themselves.
Btw, I'm still looking around for a nice deal for the 5 choices you gave me but I'm having a hard time narrowing down what you will like best for your new convertible! We should meet up at my shop and talk about it some more :)
Can you give us examples of how much of a price difference there might be between wholesale and used car mart retail prices?
I wish I would have done this instead of buying my car in Canada!!
rendered, what's the name of the dealer you own?
My wife had vetoed the 2-seater concept so it's now a four seater convertible option. PM me your shop details and we'll connect.

Much of the attention surrounding the end of smartphone subsidies has been focused on the impact on wireless carriers. T-Mobile (NASDAQ:TMUS) is in the process of rolling out new plans, and there are rumors that Verizon (NYSE:VZ) will probably end subsidies soon as well; if so, AT&T (NYSE:T) will certainly be close behind. But how will smartphone makers such as Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) be affected?
In the following interview with the Fool's Alison Southwick, Fool.com contributor Doug Ehrman discusses some of the potential impacts on Apple of the end of smartphone subsidies and why this might actually be good news for the iPhone maker.

Anguished Madhesi Morcha objects to Big 3 decision of holding polls
| Updated: Dec 30, 2016 00:07 IST
By Binod Prasad Adhikari Kathmandu [Nepal], Dec. 29 (ANI): The Madhesi Morcha which supported the new government from outside has stressed on the need for an amendment of Constitution Bill before going to polls. With the three major parties ready to hold local elections, the Morcha has expressed its concerns over the decision. The meeting of the morcha which was held in the Terai- Madhesh Loktantirk Party's office in Bijulibazar, Kathmandu, made an assessment of the present political scenario and agreed to continue the meeting. "The morcha is analysing the present political condition and in serious discussion today we decided to continue the meeting tomorrow also and will make formal announcement tomorrow afternoon at 1," said Brijesh Chandra Lal of the Terai Madhesh Democratic Party. Upendra Yadav, the chairman of Sanghiya Samaj Badi Forum Nepal, walked out of the meeting in the middle because of which no conclusions could be reached. On Wednesday the big three parties Nepali Congress, Maoist Center and opposition CPN-UML had agreed to announce the date for local election within a week. The alliance had also indicated that the country will head towards a civil war if the amendment is not made before the election. The three major political parties has agreed to hold local level elections but are yet to a reach consensus over the structure on which the election will be held. The opposition CPN-UML has been frequently obstructing parliament and force the house to adjourn till Sunday. The next parliamentary meeting will be held on Monday. With the frequent obstruction by the opposition, the government is not able to go ahead with the laws required to hold the elections. (ANI)

CHICAGO (CBS) — Chicago rarely closes its schools for snow.
The Chicago Public School system has only closed four times since 1999–two days that year after a post-New Year's Day blizzard and two days after the blizzard of 2011. In those cases, there was more than 20 inches of snow on the ground.
CPS has closed four times this month for extreme cold weather, but not snow.
But what does it take for the rest of the country to give kids a snow day?
As we saw this week in Atlanta, two to three inches brought the entire area to its knees–with some children spending Tuesday night sleeping inside their schools. Thousands were stranded in their cars and many were forced to abandon their vehicles.
A map posted on Reddit on Wednesday breaks down the criteria for the entire country.
Outside Cook County, it generally takes 12 inches of snow to close suburban schools.
A snowstorm of three inches will close schools in central Illinois and Indiana.
Minnesota and upstate New York are more like Chicago.
Less than two feet?
Go to school, kids!
Even the threat of snow in the south will shut down school districts there, according to the map.
The map, created by Alexandr Trubetskoy of Fairfax, Va., used a survey sample, data from city records, NOAA maps and local news sources.
"I decided to pursue this project because, with the recent snow accumulation in my area, the school closings severely pushed back the schedule and raised questions about Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) policy," he said in an email.

iOS 4.3 is a go. This week, Apple provided developers with an enhanced beta build of the iOS 4.3 operating system, which is expected to be released sometime in early 2011, possibly in conjunction with the Apple iPad 2. We're still sussing out the details, but one thing seems clear: contrary to previous rumors, this iOS won't include a four- and five- finger multitouch feature.
Some bloggers had speculated that the new iPad 2 – likely powered by iOS 4.3 – would allow a range of complex finger commands, possibly obviating the need for a home button. But a multitouch feature "will not be enabled in iOS 4.3 for customers," Apple wrote in documentation provided to developers, according to Information Week. (The iOS 4.3 multitouch stuff does appear in the beta kit for developers to test. However, the functionality won't get a public roll out. Yet.)
Which is not to say there isn't plenty of cool stuff in the iOS 4.3 toolbox. FaceTime and PhotoBooth are apparently included – lending credence to the iPad 2 camera rumor – and the tech site 9to5mac.com has found some information that appears to show that Apple may be expanding into the social networking realm with iOS 4.3. Specifically, Apple could in the future allow users to share photos through a "Media Stream" feature.
"We speculate that.... this is going to go way beyond photos in the future," writes 9to5.com's Mark Gurman. "We think Apple will expand this to music and videos, maybe like AirPlay between mobile iOS devices where you can watch or listen to your friends' media and of course Apple will provide easy buy links to iTunes."
Earlier this week, Apple announced that it had earned a record revenue of $26.74 billion during the first quarter of 2011, which includes the holiday season. "We had a phenomenal holiday quarter with record Mac, iPhone and iPad sales," Apple chief Steve Jobs said in a press statement. "We are firing on all cylinders and we've got some exciting things in the pipeline for this year including iPhone 4 on Verizon which customers can't wait to get their hands on."

Press Trust of India | Updated On: April 28, 2013 15:05 (IST)
JSW Steel has put on hold plans to set up a 10 million tonnes steel plant in West Bengal as it has not been able to secure long-term iron ore supplies for the Rs. 35,000 crore project.
"It is stalled right now, it's on hold. Unless we are going to fix the iron ore matter, unless we have the visibility of iron ore, we cannot move ahead. It's on hold," JSW chairman and managing director Sajjan Jindal told PTI.
JSW is working with the Centre and state government to secure iron ore mining lease, he said, adding, long-term visibility of iron ore is required to begin construction of the plant.
When asked about any timeline for the project, he said: "Nothing (is) in my control. The project is stalled at the moment."
The West Bengal project of JSW, first announced in 2007, has been getting delayed for various reasons. This included a land acquisition row with the state government after Mamata Banerjee-led government took charge in 2011. The issue has now been resolved and land acquisition has been completed. However, the company has not been willing to move further on any new project, including the ones in West Bengal, without securing either long term iron ore supply agreement or a captive iron ore mine due to its experience in Karnataka.
In Karnataka, the company runs a 10 million tonnes (MT) steel plant but it neither has any captive mine nor any long term iron ore supply agreement and the company has to source the ore from open market.
For more than one and half years now, JSW has been running the Karnataka plant at a reduced capacity due to iron ore crunch in the state.
Currently, all ore in the state gets auctioned due to a Supreme Court direction, thereby increasing the raw material cost for the company.
According to original plan, JSW's West Bengal project was envisaged to have a 10 million tonnes steel plant along with a 1,600 MW captive power plant at a total cost of Rs. 35,000 crore that requires about 4,300 acres of land.
In the first phase, the company had plans to set up a 3 MT steel plant and a 300 MW captive power plant with an investment of Rs. 20,000 crore. The first phase was proposed to be financed at a debt-equity ratio of 65:35.
Deallocation of Gourangdih ABC coal block last year by the Coal Ministry is also an issue JSW is facing. The block, allocated to JSW and Himachal EMTA jointly in July, 2009 would have provided coal for the captive power plant of the Bengal plant.
JSW has challenged the deallocation of the coal block in court and the matter is currently sub-judice.

This is not good news for tax evaders on New Year Day. The heat will be on tax-dodgers in the next three months, up to the end of the current financial year.
The income-tax (I-T) department says it wouldnt leave any stone unturned to maximise tax collections in the remaining part of the financial year, and as such, it would take up a campaign of surveys to unearth hidden incomes.
A survey essentially involves an inspection of the books of a business establishment to look for inconsistencies between declared income and actual income.
Under tax laws, a survey, as opposed to search, can be conducted by the field formations of the tax department without being in possession of specific evidence or information of tax evasion. The tax department has better logistical backing this year to take up more surveys.
The field formations dont require to be told by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) to take up surveys, CBDT joint secretary A K Sinha said.
The assessing officers are competent to conduct surveys in their jurisdictions in cases where the advance tax payments or the returns filed for the previous period dont appear to be consistent with the growth in business and incomes, he added.
We dont want to create a panic, Sinha said, but urged the media to help send out a gentle reminder to tax evaders that the tax department can be expected to carry out many more surveys in the next three months.
We are better prepared to conduct more surveys this year. The field formations, for instance, have been given 427 more vehicles extending their reach for conducting surveys, Sinha said.
The tax department is obviously encouraged by the rich dividend yielded by surveys conducted this year. In the last six months since July alone, surveys conducted by the department have resulted in the surrender of a total hidden income of over Rs 1,000 crore.
A surrender refers to the assessee conceding higher income when confronted with the result of a survey. In the whole of the last financial year, surveys were instrumental in the surrender of only Rs 212 crore.
The tax department, encouraged by the 42.5% growth in direct tax collections up to December 18, now estimates that actual collections would surpass the budgetary target for the current financial year by at least Rs 10,000 crore to reach Rs 2,20,000 crore.
This is a conservative estimate we have made keeping in view the many imponderables that may affect collections in the next three months, Sinha said.
On the expiry of the December 15 deadline for the third installment of advance tax payments by corporates, direct tax collections had swelled by 42.5% against the budgetary target of a 27.5% growth for the current financial year.
The tax buoyancy, riding on soaring corporate profitability and rising individual incomes, has been so good that revenue officials are excited over the prospects of direct tax collections actually fetching even Rs 25,000 crore over and above the target of Rs 2,10,419 crore.
The tax buoyancy is attributed to a moderate and stable tax regime that has encouraged voluntary tax compliance.

We all love those outdoor parties, barbecues and get together in our patio. But what if it rains suddenly? There remains hardly any option other than retreating indoors, ruining all the fun. A great solution to this problem lies in putting up a patio awning covering your patio. Patios make a comfortable space for your friends and family. Awnings add to this space by providing a roof converting the patio almost to an outdoor room for everybody to have fun. Patios, apart from providing a comfortable space in the outdoors also add to the beauty of your home. You would never want them to be ruined by rain or some other agent.
Awnings thus provide a fantastic way of protecting your patio. So, what exactly are awnings? An awning, also known as an overhang is a secondary cover attached usually to the exterior walls of a building. They are made of a variety of materials such as canvas, cotton, polyester, vinyl etc. stretched over a metallic framework for support. Many consider awnings as a classic addition to their homes. It may be because awnings became popular when people find delight in having afternoon teas and listening to radios on their patios and porches. Even in primitive ages, awnings are made and installed as protection for harsh weather and used to cover logs and open spaces.
Olson Awning & Canvas
Awnings may seem to be simple structures but they can add class to even the simplest and most ordinary homes. Porch, deck, and patio awnings have become popular enough to catch even the attention of businesses and the corporate world. There are two types of awnings: fixed awnings and retractable awnings. Fixed awnings have fixed frames, the main frame is fixed to its place and the rafters must be adjusted by hand if you want to roll it up. Retractable awnings are more flexible as it allows users to retract the awnings from the wall and place it somewhere more suitable. Due to the flexibility of retractable awnings, they superseded fixed awnings easily.
B&W Awning
Where to install awnings?
Awnings are most commonly installed above windows and doors. Porch, patio, and deck awnings are installed above the free space outside of your house or your lawn. These are usually attached on the wall above the door or window and extended up to the space you want to be covered. Porch, patio and deck awnings are most commonly seen in residential homes. Aside from being a decorative piece, these kinds of awnings provide sun shades and protection from snow and rain. According to a lab test, houses with awnings have cooler interiors compared to homes without these structures. Porch and patio awnings are nice to locate above windows or an area along the sidewalk where you can sit and have a place where you can read a book, drink coffee or tea, or just sit and relax.
Alexander Awning
Deck awnings come in small to huge materials, allowing the structure to extend up to the boundaries of your garden. These are suitable if you need to cover lots of space or need a covered space for parties or gatherings. It can also be used as sun shades for your garage and provide protection to your vehicle and tools.
Awning by Window Treatments NZ Ltd
Just make sure that you install a fixed awning since it's unlikely that you want to retract the covers. Find a durable awning for your garage or carport at home. Awnings come in corrugated fiberglass, polycarbonate, and aluminum for safe and hazard-free covers. While there are awnings made of asbestos, usage of such materials are highly regulated since asbestos are known to give some health complications.
Awning by AGI Group, Inc. Sidewalks also benefit from awnings. It provides protection from heavy downpour, preventing splashes, and added protection from the sun. For those who like to install awnings outside of their house but still wants to enjoy some sun, fiberglass awning allows the light to pass through, giving protection and lighting as well. You can also have stained fiberglass awnings for added style.
