Let's get fiscal from January
It makes sense to shed the colonial practice of starting the fiscal year in April and shift the date to January. The date suits India's monsoon-dependent but increasingly globalised economyeditorials Updated: Jul 07, 2016 19:23 IST
In the bureaucratic maze of Indian policy-making, proposals are sometimes examined and re-examined but conclusions are not reached. This seems to be the case with regards to the commencement of the fiscal year. A fresh start has been made on the issue with the setting up of a panel under the leadership of former chief economic adviser Shankar Acharya to suggest if it is desirable and feasible to start the financial year from a date other than the current April 1. The panel has to examine the impact of proposed new dates on businesses, taxation, government procedures, statistics and data collection and submit its report by December 31. There are bound to be lobbies going to and fro on the issue, but what we would like is a definite move by a government that claims to be decisive.
Read | Govt panel to explore change in fiscal year
The current date is a colonial legacy since 1867 because Britain starts its fiscal year in April. Until 1999, even the time, 5 p.m. was linked to 11.30 a.m. in London in tune with the House of Commons, but the then finance minister Yashwant Sinha changed it to the Indian morning hour. It is time now to switch the year as well from the colonial era All Fools Day, with good reason.
Time and again, it has been argued, even during the British Raj, that India's economy is dependent on the monsoon rains and the fiscal year must reflect that. Since food supplies and industrial demand are substantially tied to the rains, it makes sense to plan government spending in line with that. In 1984, the L.K. Jha committee had recommended a January-December year and that seems even more desirable today. Most countries follow a January-December fiscal year. Also, as an increasingly globalised economy, it make sense for India to tune itself to world financial markets, which typically start the calendar year in a sprightly mood after the Western holiday season.

A long budget session in Delhi's agreeable early winter for a January start seems more agreeable than one in a sweltering summer with a start in July, which has also been talked about. More important, details on the rainfall and anticipated harvests are clear by then to make the right budget calls. We cannot quite control the monsoon winds, but surely we can set our financial clocks to the season.

Program Overview
Read 180 is an intensive reading intervention program designed to improve a child's reading comprehension and vocabulary skills. Read 180 is currently used in over 40,000 classrooms nationwide, and is one of the most thoroughly researched and documented reading intervention programs.
Whole Group
Everyday, throughout the course of the year, students receive 20 minutes of whole group instruction; where reading, writing, and vocabulary are touched on. The students then enter the rotational model.
In the rotational model, students work independently on the computer for 20 minutes using the programs instructional software in the computer station. In each of the fifteen topics, students work in the reading zone, spelling zone, word zone, success zone, and finally the writing zone.
Independent Reading
Students read independently for 20 minutes in the reading station. There are many program books/audio books to choose from in the Read 180 library. These books are high interest and will challenge, not frustrate the student.
Small Group
The last part of the rotational model consists of 20 minutes of small group instruction with the teacher. Here, students will practice vocabulary, writing skills, and reinforce content taught in whole group instruction.

Factors to Consider before Undergoing a Plastic Surgery
There are times that we all need some of the body parts reshaped as a result of some deformities. This may be due to an accident, birth defects or any other event that may cause the body parts to be malformed. Plastic surgery is one of the ways to reshape such deformities. An example of plastic surgery may include
breast augmentation in Los Angeles.
This entails the reshaping of the breasts that are sagging or worn out to boost them with more muscle from other body parts such as the butt so that they can be enlarged. Butt lift Los Angeles is another example of plastic surgery. Many ladies may consider this when they want to enhance the beauty and appearance. There are however several factors that one should put in consideration before undergoing plastic surgery and they are mentioned in this article.
The plastic surgeon that will perform the plastic surgery is the number one consideration to make. Plastic surgeons need to be very experienced and learned in order to perform this task. It is so frustrating to have that procedure being carried out by a quack or a person that is not even aware of it. In order to affirm that the
plastic surgeon
is qualified, it is good to look at his credentials in terms of the certificates and the licenses that he or she has. They should also be from a relevant institution. By looking at the years that he or she has been in business, you can be sure of the experience that has been gained over time and there is an assurance that he is well versed with the procedure.
It is also wise to look at the cost that will be inquired for the procedure. You do not of course do something that will sweep off all the cash. The cash that you have is what you are supposed to use and not strain yourself financially. It is also important to inquire and be aware of the risks and complications that can occur when plastic surgery is performed. Like any surgery, you as a person is prone to a lot of blood loss and potential side effects at the site. It is good to tell the surgeon to give you all the preventive measures if any so as to stay safe. Also inquire on the time that you will take to recover. This is because it may affect other aspects of life and it is good to be aware of what to expect in terms of healing. Read more at

"Mary Mary", by Jean Kerr
Directed by Suzanne Kaspar and Assistant Director Nicole Kaestner
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, and other sources
Mary, Mary is a play by Jean Kerr.
After two previews, the Broadway production opened on March 8, 1961 at the original Helen Hayes Theatre (demolished in 1982), where it ran for nearly three years and nine months before transferring to the Morosco where it closed in December 1964, after 1572 performances. Directed by Joseph Anthony, the original cast starred Barbara Bel Geddes as Mary, Barry Nelson as Bob, Michael Rennie as Dirk, John Cromwell as Oscar, and Betsy Von Furstenberg as Tiffany. Bel Geddes was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play
he play became one of the longest-running productions of the 1960's - 1572 performances!
"Mary, Mary," is a thoroughly delightful romp through the marital mores and woes of yesteryear. The story, in a nutshell, concerns a divorced couple, their current love interests, and their tax lawyer (Jake Thomas of Joliet) who would like to see the divorcées back together, if only for financial reasons. Ex-husband Bob (Marty Kaspar of Plainfield) is going to be remarried in two weeks, but finds himself in trouble with the IRS for back taxes. His lawyer forces him to see Mary (Jacqueline Ashcraft of Shorewood) to go over their canceled checks. Bob dreads the reunion, for good reason. As soon as they meet the incompatible couple start bickering over past issues. Yet Bob feels himself reluctantly getting involved with Mary. The situation gets complicated when Bob's fiancée Tiffany (Elyse Lorenz of Joliet) meets her and his movie-star neighbor (Carl Zeitler) makes romantic advances toward her.
Much to their surprise, the old sparks ignite, and Bob and Mary realize they're still in love despite their differences. But can they make it work this time?
Richard L. Breen adapted Kerr's play for a 1963 film version directed by Mervyn LeRoy. Nelson, Rennie, and Sherman reprised their stage roles, with Debbie Reynolds as Mary and Diane McBain as Tiffany
Production dates were September 27, 28, 29 and October 4, 5, 6.

This post may include affiliate links, which means I make a commission on purchases made through these links at no additional cost to you. Thank you for your support! !
As part of our nutrition journey, we're trying to get better at weekly meal prep. Spending a chunk of one day (most people I know go with Sunday afternoon) prepping and portioning food for the week saves you a lot of time and makes it easier to eat well when you're in a rush during the week.
We haven't gotten to the point where we're prepping everything for the week, but we started with cooking about half a week's worth of chicken and roasted veggies. Today I'm sharing our weekly meal prep oven roasted veggies recipe. I hope you enjoy, whether or not you're into meal prepping!
I used zucchini, yellow squash, yellow and orange bell pepper, red onion, and purple sweet potato. Feel free to leave out ingredients you don't like or add others (like carrots or mushrooms).
The most "difficult" part of this roasted veggie recipe is actually cutting up all the vegetables! Try to make the zucchini and squash pieces a little larger than the potato pieces because the squashes cook more quickly than potatoes.
By using larger chunks, you can help even out the cooking time and have a whole pan of vegetables that are cooked appropriately.
- I cut my zucchini/squash into rounds about 1″ thick then quartered each round.
- In general, I tried for pieces of potato about 1/2″ thick.
- Onions I halved pole to pole, halved lengthwise, then cut into 1/2″ wide sections.
- The bell peppers I cut into chunks about 3/4″ across.
For maximum flavor, mix up the quick dressing and allow the vegetables to marinate for an hour or two. If you're in a hurry, you can skip this part and go straight to preheating the oven! Either way, make sure to use a heavy duty rimmed baking sheet when you're ready to cook the vegetables.
I know I mention it all the time, but you really need a heavy duty aluminum baking sheet for top results! I use and love the Cooks Illustrated-reccomend Vollrath pan. You can tell from the photo that it is well used, indeed! A heavy duty pan conducts heat evenly and it won't buckle or warp.
We divided the roasted vegetables into 8 servings with about 150 calories each. The vegetables are tasty on their own, but also go well with noodles or even in a wrap!
If you're doing meal prep, don't forget that eating everything exactly as you prepared it isn't mandatory. We cook up a lot of plain chicken then season it to complement the rest of the meal on any given day. For example, we used similar herbs to the roast vegetables' dressing to season chicken for accompanying pasta and roast veggies, but used Cuban-style spices when we ate chicken with black beans and rice a different day.
I keep talking about meal prep, but you can absolutely eat these right out of the oven! They'd be a tasty side and a fall get together, and they're an easy way to put a lot of vegetables on the table.
If you are planning to reheat these veggies throughout the week, it is important to stop roasting them just shy of fully tender so they don't become mushy when re-heated.
Somewhere in the 40-45 minute range works well for "al dente" with my pan and oven, but ovens do vary so make sure to keep an eye on your vegetables! To reheat, you can just pop a serving in the microwave for 30-60 seconds, or you can reheat them on the stove.
Do you have your vegetables chopped and ready to go? Great! Let's get to the recipe.
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- zest and juice from one lime
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1 lb sweet potato
- 1 pound yellow squash
- 1 pound zucchini squash
- 1 orange bell pepper
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- 1 shallot (about 1.5 oz)
- Whisk all dressing ingredients together to combine.
- Chop all vegetables as directed above, and mince the shallot.
- Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl, drizzle with the dressing, and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, if time allows.
- Preheat your oven to 370º Fahrenheit and adjust a rack to the middle position.
- Toss vegetables again to re-coat with dressing, then transfer to your rimmed baking sheet. Everything will probably not fit in a single layer - that's okay.
- Roast until the vegetables are tender or, if you're planning to re-heat them throughout the week as part of a meal prep plan, until they're almost tender. This should take 45-60 minutes. Gently flip/stir the veggies every 15 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy or portion out to enjoy later!
We've tried these roasted veggies solo, with pasta, and in a wrap. How would you enjoy them? Any additional ideas for us to try out?

A refinished outdoor storage bin for Catherine
She and her hubby recently did some renovations to their amazing house and have a wonderful three-season porch with some great rustic touches. She wanted a nice outdoor storage bin that could hold bird seed and stand up to the MN weather!
She definitely knew exactly what she wanted it to look like. A nice weathered green with tones of brown to coordinate with the colors of her porch. We fondly refer to it as "Distressed Glazed Basil"... as inspired by Ballard Design's Casa Florentina colors.
Pretty isn't it? I love the rustic green tones and the vintage hinges.
