Are you a roller skater or maybe a former one? As a child, I attended a lot of roller-skating parties. I remember skating in a rink with flashing lights and lots of '80s music playing. I hadn't roller skated in years, but when I heard about Rock N Rollers in Avon, Indiana, I had to check it out. Rock N Rollers is conveniently located just off U.S. 36 (behind Terry Lee Honda). It's cold out there, so if you're looking for indoor activities, this is it! If you have children, grandchildren or nieces and nephews, Rock N Rollers is a great place to take them. If you're visiting Hendricks County for the weekend and are looking for a place to go with the kids for a few hours, this is the place. In fact, you'll find a few hotels located within a short distance of Rock N Rollers and with JR Funnigans Jump N Play and Xtreme Lazer Tag nearby, Avon really has some family-friendly entertainment for locals and visitors. I recently visited Rock N Rollers on a Sunday afternoon and found a friendly, colorful and fun environment. The staff was happy to answer questions about types of skates to rent and my questions about booking a birthday party. There was a nice mix of adults and children skating and a few birthday/skating parties going on. There's a big screen for watching TV/videos, and I heard a good variety of music playing while everybody skated. You'll also find a snack bar and a handful of arcade games to play, when you're on a skating break. I was immediately taken back to those weekend afternoon skating parties I went to as a kid. I don't have kids, but my nieces are always looking for a fun weekend activity, and I can't wait until their next visit so I can take them to Rock N Rollers in Avon. I'm still a bit wobbly on skates, so maybe they can teach me a few skating moves… like skating backwards, which I never mastered. There's still time, right? If you're looking for an inexpensive way to enjoy an afternoon in Hendricks County, you've got to check out Rock N Rollers. Mark these upcoming dates on your calendar:
- Friday, January 18th: All Night Skating/Lock In from midnight until 7:00 a.m. ($20, includes admission, regular skates and 2 medium drinks, prizes and games)
- Monday, January 21st: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, skating from 1-4 p.m.

The power structure of Bronze Age societies was based on social networks
Archaeologist Magnus Artursson at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, demonstrates in his thesis that societies during the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age had a significantly more varied and complex structure than was previously thought. This power structure was based on social networks rather than on permanently established institutions. Society was organised into small and medium-sized chiefdoms that were typically involved in ongoing struggles for dominance between various powerful families.
Based on a discussion of previously-known and newly-discovered settlement material, the author of this thesis examines the development of society during the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age (2300 - 500 BC) from a community history perspective. Artursson also makes comparisons of the nature of grave and sacrificial material in order to create a more detailed picture of how societies looked and changed over time.
Generally, one can say that society during this entire period displayed a significantly more varied and complex structure than that which is generally deemed likely. This conclusion is based, inter alia, on a new view of the structure and organisation of communities. We can descry a clear social dimension in the material, which can be identified through differences in the sizes of houses and homesteads, as well as variations in community structure within and between various regions, which show that a hierarchy of communities existed in the area.
A clear correlation can also been noted between the centrality of an area and the way settlements look. Areas that, based on their central geographic location or their access to important raw materials, may have played a key role in the society of the time, show communities organised in forms ranging from relatively dense, village-like structures to isolated homesteads. In more peripheral areas, on the other hand, settlement patterns are of a more much dispersed nature, and consist mainly of scattered, village-like structures or isolated homesteads.
These results would clearly indicate that society had a hierarchical composition and structure throughout this period.
Especially in southern Scandinavia, the predominant organisational form had been relatively unstable, small and medium-sized chiefdoms, in which powerful families and groups who were in constant competition with each other vied for power. Repeated changes in dominance with more or less sweeping struggles for power characterised the organisation of society in the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age (2300 - 1100 BC), while development toward a more stabile situation, and the emergence of larger political entities in certain parts of the region can be observed during the Late Bronze Age (1100 - 500 BC). These larger political entities, however, were unable to maintain their local dominance for long periods, but were broken up in connection with the death of leaders, at which time internal and external struggles for power suddenly increased.

If we're being honest, most people would say that they would much rather have a bowl of ice cream than a bowl of vegetables. If you still struggle with eating your recommended daily amount of fresh fruit and veggies, these simple tips will help make it a bit easier.
- Make a smoothie. To jump-start your fruit and veggie intake first thing in the morning, blend them into a smoothie to start your day. Add any fruit that you have around the house, and even toss in some spinach or cucumber for a boost of veggies that you likely won't even notice.
- Keep frozen veggies on hand. If you're unsure of how to prepare vegetables with your meal, keep a few bags of frozen vegetables in the freezer. That way, you can simply pop them into the microwave come mealtime.
- Think more veggies than protein. If you don't like to weigh and measure everything that you eat, keep in mind that your vegetables should always be the largest portion on your plate.
- Have fruit for dessert. If you have an insatiable sweet tooth, switch out your usual chocolate for a plate of fresh fruit. It packs the same sweet punch, and by making this healthy switch, you won't have to skip dessert entirely when you're on a diet.

Alternative forms[edit]

Etymology 1[edit]
From Middle English anchor, from Old English ancor, ancra, from Latin ancora, from (or cognate with) Ancient Greek ἄγκυρα (ánkura). The modern spelling is a sixteenth-century modification to better represent the Latin spelling anchora, a variant of the older Latin spelling ancora.
anchor (plural anchors)
- (nautical) A tool used to moor a vessel to the bottom of a sea or river to resist movement.
- 1913, Joseph C. Lincoln, chapter 10, in Mr. Pratt's Patients:
- Men that I knew around Wapatomac didn't wear high, shiny plug hats, nor yeller spring overcoats, nor carry canes with ivory heads as big as a catboat's anchor, as you might say.
- (nautical) An iron device so shaped as to grip the bottom and hold a vessel at her berth by the chain or rope attached. (FM 55-501).
- (nautical) The combined anchoring gear (anchor, rode, bill/peak and fittings such as bitts, cat, and windlass.)
- (heraldry) Representation of the nautical tool, used as a heraldic charge.
- Any instrument serving a purpose like that of a ship's anchor, such as an arrangement of timber to hold a dam fast; a device to hold the end of a bridge cable etc.; or a device used in metalworking to hold the core of a mould in place.
- (Internet) A marked point in a document that can be the target of a hyperlink.
- (television) An anchorman or anchorwoman.

- Supermarkets have also had to adjust. Tesco, Sainsbury's and Asda have put a much greater emphasis on developing smaller high street stores or becoming anchors for mixed-used regeneration schemes […]
- 2006, Planning: For the Natural and Built Environment (issues 1650-1666, page 15)
- (figuratively) That which gives stability or security.
- Bible, Hebrews vi. 19
- which hope we have as an anchor of the soul
- Bible, Hebrews vi. 19
- (architecture) A metal tie holding adjoining parts of a building together.
- (architecture) Carved work, somewhat resembling an anchor or arrowhead; part of the ornaments of certain mouldings. It is seen in the echinus, or egg-and-anchor (called also egg-and-dart, egg-and-tongue) ornament.
- One of the anchor-shaped spicules of certain sponges.
- One of the calcareous spinules of certain holothurians, as in species of Synapta.
- (cartomancy) The thirty-fifth Lenormand card.
- (obsolete) An anchorite or anchoress.
- (Can we find and add a quotation of Shakespeare to this entry?)
Usage notes[edit]
Formerly a vessel would differentiate amongst the anchors carried as waist anchor, best bower, bower, stream and kedge anchors, depending on purpose and, to a great extent, on mass and size of the anchor. Modern usage is storm anchor for the heaviest anchor with the longest rode, best bower or simply bower for the most commonly used anchor deployed from the bow, and stream or lunch hook for a small, light anchor used for temporary moorage and often deployed from the stern.

Lucky number 6 with today's zodiac-themed cupcake post! Today, I'm going to talk to you about Scorpio.
Scorpios are born between October 23rd and November 22nd and their greatest strength is their sensitivity. Though they tend to hide from the intensity of their emotions (Water signs are led by their heart) and can be stubborn with whatever stand they take, they always find a way to forgive. Scorpios are also quite passionate and dynamic.
Distrusting and suspicious, people under this zodiac appreciate honesty.
But hurt a Scorpio at your peril, because as much as they're known for being a good friend, they're determined and seriously into getting revenge, and their emotions can prove destructive to themselves and others. They won't be so quick to forgive you again.
For these reasons, I've chosen to do a dark and sultry combination of dark chocolate and raspberry. The colours are beautiful together, for one thing, but dark chocolate has always been underrated and underestimated—it's unique, that's for sure. Raspberry brings out a soft sweetness, and I feel like these two ingredients represent the two sides to a Scorpio: the good, sensitive friend, and the scorned lover.
I used this delicious chocolate cake recipe by Martha Stewart and added crushed raspberries (equal to 2 handfuls of whole ones) to the batter.
For the dark chocolate buttercream:
160g icing sugar
80g unsalted butter, room temperature
20-30g cocoa powder
Drizzle of chocolate syrup
And top the cupcake with a raspberry—enjoy!

Natural Aphrodisiacs supplements herbs that work for a man and woman
Effective herbal products and formulas for men and women
An honest review of aphrodisiac drugs and substances, list of ingredients and foods with aphrodisiac properties, for female and male adults
January 1 2018
Many medical doctors know very little about natural herbs that improve sexual pleasure and performance in a man or woman
Are there male and female natural aphrodisiac herbal products that really work? There is a suspicion in the modern Western mindset that plants, roots, herbs and other substances claimed to enhance sexual passion or interest are barely — if at all — effective. Fortunately, modern research in this area has now confirmed the observations made by many shamans and herbal experts who, for centuries and millennia, have used roots, barks, leaves, herbs, various plants and animal parts to enhance sexual experience and performance.
Alternatives to prescription erectile dysfunction medications?
With the proper use of natural aphrodisiacs, prescription medications for erectile dysfunction or impotence may not be needed, or perhaps needed in smaller dosages.
Powerful Natural Aphrodisiac for Men and Women, formulated by a medical doctor
Most natural sex enhancers provide results that are most often noticed by the third or fourth day of use, not right away. More than 80% of users are satisfied by the end the first week, with additional satisfaction by the end of the second week. Dr. Ray Sahelian, M.D., best selling author of Natural Sex Boosters, is a medical doctor who has formulated several natural sexual improving herbal aphrodisiac products. His research staff tested various doses and extracts of dozens of powerful herbal male and female aphrodisiacs from a number or raw material suppliers to determine the ideal dose and combination for optimal aphrodisiac properties with the fewest side effects. The result is Passion Rx, an effective formula with few side effects that works within a few days.
Buy an effective natural aphrodisiac formula called Passion Rx with Yohimbe or subscribe to a Free newsletter providing new aphrodisiac herbal research
Buy natural aphrodisiac herbs in pill form from a reliable source
Medical doctor developed
After years of trial and testing, a powerful aphrodisiac proprietary blend with more than a dozen herbal extracts from the best raw material suppliers has been created.
Passion Rx Yohimbe is a unique natural aphrodisiac blend that leads to improvement in:
Sexual stamina, libido, and performance
Erectile function, orgasms and climaxes
Improved sensation of genital organs
Potent herbal aphrodisiac extracts in the formula are ashwagandha, avena sativa, barberry extract, catuaba, cnidium monieri, Cynomorium songaricum, damiana, eurycoma extract, herba cistanches, horny goat weed, maca herb, muira puama, passion flower, rhodiola, tongkat ali, tribulus and Yohimbe Bark extract.
Dosage, how to take and when
Most people take a capsule in the morning at least a half hour before breakfast. Another capsule is taken the second day also in the morning. We suggest you skip the third day and resume the fourth day. From then on you can take this product as much as 2 days on, one day off, or as little as one or two days a week depending on your needs and response.
Natural herbal aphrodisiacs review
There are a number of herbs and plant extracts that are excellent sexual enhancers and it is difficult to say which one is the best since different people respond to different ones. As medical science has given us a greater understanding of human sexuality and our own chemical processes that put us in the mood, research has uncovered how some well-known and not so well-known male and female aphrodisiacs actually work with our body chemistry to lead to arousal and excitement. Various substances of animal and plant origin have now been identified, allowing for testing and scientific understanding of their chemical composition and mechanisms of action. For instance, the herb maca is able to reverse SSRI induced sexual dysfunction. SSRI drugs such as Prozac, Zoloft and Paxil reduce sexual pleasure since they increase serotonin levels dampening erectile function and sensation.
Best aphrodisiac formula
Q. What is the best herbal sexual enhancing aphrodisiac pill?
A. Different people respond differently to such natural products, so it is difficult to pick the best herbal aphrodisiac. Formulas that combine several herbs are probably the best option if the combination formula was done in an experienced manner.
Speed of onset, how quickly do natural aphrodisiacs work?
There are dozens of natural herbal and natural aphrodisiacs that enhance sexual drive and pleasure in both men and women, along with enhancing erections and providing more satisfying orgasms and climaxes. Some of these herbs are quite powerful but they take a few days to work at their best compared to prescription medications that work within hours. These natural aphrodisiacs not only enhance libido, but they enhance most aspects of the human sexual response, particularly if they are used in combination. These plant extracts, when used in combination, are just as good (actually, in our opinion, better) as Viagra, Levitra or other drugs in boosting sexual stamina and libido, but not as powerful as the drugs in maximum erectile function. They may take a little longer to work– for instance Tongkat Ali, horny goat weed, tribulus, maca, ginseng, muira puama, and Mucuna Pruriens sometimes take several days for the best results — but when they actually start working, you are likely to be impressed.
Is there such a thing as an aphrodisiac food or recipe? Is there a reliable list? What about drinks?
No particular food enhances sexuality or can be considered a true aphrodisiac if the expectation is that results would be noticed right away, such as an hour or two. It is possible, though, that certain foods, such as fish or seafood, could be considered to have aphrodisiac qualities in the long run since fish provides long-chained fatty acids such as DHA and EPA found in fish oils. These fish oils could improve blood flow to the genital region and also have beneficial effects on seminal fluid and sperm. A diet with healthy foods could certainly be considered to have potential since in the long run those who are physically and mentally healthy are more likely to have optimal sexual function. They are likely to have excellent blood flow to the genital organs, and optimal hormone balance. Many herbs can be brewed as a tea and as such these could be considered aphrodisiac tea products. A homemade aphrodisiac drink can be made by adding certain powerful herbs to any kind of alcoholic or non alcoholic drink or liquid.
Are there any nuts or seeds that are considered aphrodisiacs? What about a fruit?
There may be. We are not aware of any nuts or seeds, when ingested, lead to a sexual enhancing effect within an hour or two. But, we will keep searching for such a seed or nut. We have not come across an aphrodisiac fruit that leads to a quick sexual enhancement.
What about spices in the kitchen?
Research supports certain spices as male and female aphrodisiacs. Saffron, nutmeg and clove have sexual improving benefits. Garlic, onions, and ginger are natural aphrodisiacs that work for erectile dysfunction or as a treatment for impotence.
Comparing prescription impotence and aphrodisiac drugs
There are a number of natural aphrodisiac herbs that are effective in improving sexuality in men and women. Even though many cultures for centuries have known about local plants, roots, barks, herbs that stimulate sexual passion, most doctors in the US have little clue on how potent some of these herbs or combinations can be. Americans like pills that give an immediate effect. We want to take an impotence drug like Viagra and get a quick response in an hour or two. Most natural herbal aphrodisiacs take 2 or 3 days to begin to work. Their effects improve over time, but there are some herbs or combinations that work quicker. Although Viagra and its cousins Cialis and Levitra work very well for erectile function, they have little effect on sensation or libido and they hardly work in women. Natural aphrodisiac herbs are not as potent and quick in terms of stimulating an erection, but with time they can be as good as the drugs. Most people prefer the overall sexual enhancement that comes from the herbs in terms of the whole package — sensation, libido, intensity of orgasms, climaxes, lubrication, and erection. Herbs also have the advantage of causing fewer side effects and unpleasant reactions.
Side effects of ED medications
The drug sildenafil (Viagra, Pfizer), tadalafil (Cialis, Lilly-Icos) and vardenafil (Levitra, Bayer), have adverse effects with include vision disturbances, hypotension (low blood pressure), tachycardia (fast heart beat), headache, flushing, blurred vision, dyspepsia (stomach upset), and musculoskeletal pain (aches and pains in joints or muscles).
Do you consider Cialis and Viagra aphrodisiac drugs?
Levitra, Cialis and Viagra are partial aphrodisiac drugs. They are effective in providing strong erections, but they have little effect on sexual desire or libido, and they don't enhance genital sensation.
Aphrodisiac for woman, are they effective in women, ladies?
Most herbal aphrodisiacs work for a woman as well as a man, including avena sativa, ginseng, muira puama, tongkat ali, Tribulus Terrestris Extract, maca extract, and horny goat weed. Mucuna pruriens and LJ100 are other herbal aphrodisiacs for a woman. In our experience, we have found these natural herbs to be effective in both men and women.
Yes, we do believe horny goat weed, muira puama, tongkat ali, tribulus terrestris, and many other herbs are good and proven male and female aphrodisiac plants. Nature has provided us with many aphrodisiac herbs and plants, and there are countless sexual enhancing plants in nature that have not yet been discovered.
Potent aphrodisiacs
There are several natural aphrodisiacs that are potent, including tribulus terrrestris, tongkat ali, catuaba, muira puama, horny goat weed, mucuna pruriens, and yohimbe. Each person has their own preference and while one natural aphrodisiac may work for one person, another individual may notice side effects and not find the herb helpful. Sometimes a combination of herbs can be more potent or effective than single herbs alone.
Do you know of any Asian or Chinese aphrodisiac herbs or plants?
The Chinese have many aphrodisiac herbs including cnidium, horny goat weed, codonopsis, cistanches, ginkgo biloba and others. In Asia, particularly in India, Ayurvedic doctors use ashwagandha and mucuna pruriens for better sex.
Essential oil
Q. A friend of mine claims she has an aphrodisiac essential oil that she can rub on the body. She also sells aphrodisiac aromatherapy products. Do they work?
A. Perhaps there is such an aphrodisiac essential oil, we are not familiar with any. As to aphrodisiac aromatherapy products, again we are not familiar with them but it is possible that some people who are very sensitive to fragrances may find a slight benefit. A person who has a sensitive sense of smell could respond to a particular scent or perfume and be aroused by the person who is wearing a fragrance that appeals to them.

Critic reviews and ratings
...clocks quite a curious yarn, more notable for what it attempts than what it actually achieves.
...an interesting watch with a sharp and clever second half.
...one of Jackpot's few redeeming factors here is that it moves along quickly.
I will give Kaizad Gustad full marks for experimenting something new, but his basic theme lacks hook points.
Although the suspense factor holds tight at moments, the charm of deception is severely missing.
The most unbearable film of 2013. Utterly boring, inane, kiddish tale about a con job gone awry.
What he (the director) doesn't do is put together something that can make us care. And the acting is awful.
It is a clueless film clearly made without the presence of a director.
Con artists, rainy Goa, casinos, a porn star - Gustad had the nut game but his approach is cavalier. The narrative - aspiring to be sharp and stylish - ends up lackluster and disjointed with not a single moment of high energy.
...a series of scenes put together randomly.
The story is not new, treatment isn't great and the filmmaker has wasted both talent and sex appeal.
...a complete yawn-fest and sleep inducing con-film which really tests your patience despite a short run-time.
...the list of the 'Worst Film of 2013' just got (yet) another addition.
...stretched-out lameness...
Only go for Jackpot if you sat right until the end of the titles of Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag and yelled encore.
...has no plot. It's just slamming of scenes together.

|Scott Abell had been head coach at Washington & Lee since Frank Miriello's retirement in 2012.
Washington & Lee athletics photo
Washington and Lee athletic director Jan Hathorn has announced that Scott Abell has resigned as head football coach to accept the same position at Davidson.
Davidson, a Division I FCS program which does not give football scholarships, was 2-9 this past season, with both wins against Division III schools. W&L was 8-3 this past season, falling 21-0 in the first round of the playoffs at eventual national champion Mount Union.
Davidson's last win against a Division I program was in November 2015.
"Washington and Lee is an amazing place and my family and I will cherish the memories and relationships we have made through the years," said Abell. "I would like to personally thank all of the coaches, staff and athletic director Jan Hathorn for their leadership and hard work with the football team.
"The W&L football program is in a strong place because of its student-athletes and working alongside those students is what has made this decision so difficult. I feel certain that the program will continue to thrive for years to come. Washington and Lee University and Lexington will be a place my family will remember with extreme fondness."
Abell served as the Generals' head coach for six seasons, compiling a 39-24 (.619) overall record and winning three Old Dominion Athletic Conference titles. The three conference titles are the most for any coach in program history, while his winning percentage is the highest since W.C. Raftery compiled a 23-10 (.697) mark for four seasons from 1917-21. He was named the ODAC Coach of the Year three times and twice claimed the Williard Bailey Award as the top NCAA Division II/III Coach in Virginia.
"As cliché as it sounds, this is truly a very bittersweet moment: We are happy for Scott yet we are sad to see him go," said Hathorn. "It is hard to put into words all the positive things Scott has meant to W&L — to the football program, to athletics, and to the University, as a whole. He is a champion, in every way, and we couldn't be more pleased for him as he seeks this new challenge in his career.
"We will undoubtedly miss Scott and his leadership, yet we are, most of all, thankful to him for all that he has done to lead our students in their pursuit of excellence in the classroom, on the playing field, and in life after W&L. He has made us all better. We wish him, and his family, all the best in their future at Davidson."
Abell arrived at Washington and Lee in 2008 as assistant coach and offensive coordinator. He immediately transformed the Generals' offense into one of the best in Division III by using a modified option offense. As an assistant coach, his offenses culminated in an ODAC title and 8-3 overall record in 2010 and an 8-2 mark in 2011.
Abell took over the reins as head coach in 2012 after the retirement of Frank Miriello. He guided W&L to the ODAC title in his first season, producing an 8-3 overall record and setting 15 school records in the process.
Injuries took their toll over the next two seasons, as the Generals finished 5-5 and 2-8 in 2013 and 2014, respectively. Despite the setbacks, W&L still ranked among the national leaders in rushing offense.
The 2015 season would prove to be one of the most successful in program history, as W&L finished with a 10-1 overall record and again won the ODAC title. The Generals finished the regular season with a 10-0 mark, the first undefeated regular season for the Blue & White in 54 years. W&L was the first team in ODAC history to have a perfect 7-0 league mark and the Generals finished the season ranked 21st in the final D3football.com poll.
W&L notched a 6-4 overall record in 2016 and claimed another ODAC title this fall, finishing with an 8-3 overall record and a 5-1 mark in conference play. The Generals finished the season ranked second nationally in rushing and held eventual national champion Mount Union to just 276 yards and 21 points in a 21-0 loss to the Purple Raiders in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
Abell's teams set nearly every school rushing record during his time with the program, ranking no lower than sixth in Division III in rushing offense since the 2010 campaign. During that time, W&L led all of college football in rushing twice, and topped Division III in rushing three times.
A national search for a new head football coach will begin immediately.

A world full of phoneys4 min read . Updated: 03 Feb 2010, 09:16 PM IST
A world full of phoneys
A world full of phoneys
At one point in the film version of John Guare's play Six Degrees of Separation, Will Smith delivers a spell-binding soliloquy in which he connects an amazing range of dots, squeezing a universe of ideas and using clever bon mots, impressing an audience of adults who should have known more but don't. Smith begins—and ends—his riff on imagination and paralysis with J.D. Salinger's novel The Catcher in the Rye. He also reminds us that John Hinckley, who shot Ronald Reagan, and Mark David Chapman, who killed John Lennon, said they were influenced by The Catcher in the Rye.
The novel's protagonist, Holden Caulfield, uncannily personified the ennui and loneliness of a teenager who felt nobody understood him, and who thought that the world around him was an artificial construct—or phoney, his favourite term. The world was full of goddamned phoneys. Caulfield wanted to withdraw.
Like Albert Camus' The Stranger—once translated as The Outsider—Salinger's brilliant novel is often cited, and singularly blamed, for making people do things they apparently wouldn't have done otherwise: the ultimate withdrawal of troubled individuals who cannot, or do not wish to belong; who fail to adjust to a "conventional" life.
This idea, of removing one's self from "being" to "nothingness"—to cite Jean-Paul Sartre's terms—is not exclusively Western. The Catcher in the Rye was published in 1951; 11 years later, a town planner in Calcutta called Sudhindra Sircar used the name Badal Sircar and wrote a landmark play— Evam Indrajit (And Indrajit)—which captured the loneliness of post-Independence urban youth with dismaying accuracy.
There is no outward similarity between Holden and Indrajit. Holden is a clever teenager. His self-assured attitude conceals his insecurity, and his laconic tone is funny and poignant. Holden is from a privileged family, and he finds the meaninglessness and hypocrisies surrounding him depressing.
Indrajit is older: He is about to graduate when the play begins. He is from an educated, middle-class (bhadralok) family, studying at a good college, and expected to enter a profession his family would be proud of. The humdrum dreams of his classmates irritate him. Their conversations are about "cricket, films, physics, politics, literature"; their names are identical—Amal, Bimal and Kamal.
Indrajit is different. He loves the intelligent, beautiful Manasi. But she is his cousin, and conventions prevent them from getting any closer. Indrajit can't stand the rules that tie him, the traditions that bind him. "Is there a rule that one has to abide rules? One can hate rules. Why should they be there at all?" he asks. Manasi says rules matter: "Men can do what they want; women must be obedient."
As time passes, Indrajit's ambitions get narrowed; he marries another woman, but calls her Manasi. Towards the end of the play, he calls himself Nirmal. He goes to London—the Mecca for midnight's children—but the city fails to excite him. He contemplates suicide, saying that past and present are two ends of a single rope. The real Manasi returns, talks him out of it. "I don't dream anymore," he says. "Didn't you ever have one?" Manasi asks. "I was myself then," he says.
What lies ahead of him is the Sisyphean task of rolling a huge rock up a towering hill, and keep on doing it, even when the rock keeps rolling back.
That's the fate Holden wants to avoid. Many who read Salinger in their teens identified with Holden's angst. A few acted out their morbid, alternative reality, harming themselves or others. But Salinger spoke to many more, and The Catcher in the Rye became a haunting portrayal of growing up. As Stephen Metcalf wrote in Slate on Salinger's death last week: "Like many of my fellow pilgrims, I hit adolescence only to discover my autobiography had already been written; plagiarized, in fact, by a man named J.D. Salinger who, in appropriating to himself my inner mass of pain and confusion, had given me the unlikely name of 'Holden Caulfield'."
Holden and Indrajit could have only existed as they were imagined—in a novel or a play. In his introduction to the English translation of Evam Indrajit, Satyadev Dubey wrote: "When Indrajit unwittingly emerges almost a decade later, as a character in Satyajit Ray's Pratidwandi (Siddhartha and the City) then in spite of his real 'feel' in cinema, one finds that his wings have been clipped. An Indrajit so totally circumscribed by the realism of cinema never achieves the evocative richness of his original theatrical framework."
Nearly a quarter century ago, on the balcony of his apartment, I had asked Sunil Gangopadhyaya, the author of Pratidwandi: If we meet Siddhartha today, what would he do?
Gangopadhyaya thought for a while. Then he smiled ironically, and said he would be a boxwallah, or an executive at Citibank. And he would be driving a Maruti, not an Ambassador.
Holden would have considered all of us phoneys.

How to Test for Lipids in Food
Lipids are a diverse group of organic molecules and are present as fats and oils in foods. Fatty acids, such as omega-3s and omega-6s, are made of long chain fatty acids containing an ester group. Whether the fat is saturated or unsaturated depends on the structure. For example, triglycerides, predominately solid or semisolid at room temperature, are most likely animal-based fats, whereas liquid triglycerides are plant-based, such as olive oil. Testing for lipids in foods is a rather simple process that requires a few simple items.
Grease Test
Cut a piece of the solid food to expose the inside. If the food sample is liquid, apply a small amount to the cotton swab.
Rub the solid food piece or the liquid on the cotton swab on the paper bag.
Allow the sample to dry for at least three to four minutes.
Place the paper bag against a light source, such as a lamp. If the bag shows a grease spot causing a translucent appearance of the paper bag, lipids are present.
Sudan Test
Pipette or suction out using a dropper 2 mL of water and 2 mL of a liquid food sample and put it in a beaker or test tube. If you're testing a solid food source, you will need to either puree it in a food processor or grate the sample. If you are using a food processor, you can combine the water and the food together. Measure out 4 mL of the puree to the beaker or test tube.
Use a new dropper to obtain a small amount of Sudan red indicator.
Release three drops of the indicator into the test tube or beaker.
Swirl the contents around and allow it to settle. If lipids are present, they will be dyed red.

MOSCOW - An international team of researchers climbed into a set of windowless steel capsules Thursday to launch a 520-day simulation of a flight to Mars intended to help real space crews of the future cope with confinement, stress and fatigue of interplanetary travel.
The six-member, all-male crew of three Russians, a Frenchman, an Italian-Colombian and a Chinese will follow a tight regimen of experiments and exercise under video surveillance.
The Mars-500 experiment - conducted by the Moscow-based Institute for Medical and Biological Problems in cooperation with the European Space Agency and China's space training center - aims to reproduce the conditions of space travel, with exception of weightlessness.
"For me, it will be mainly my family, and the sun and fresh air," French participant Romain Charles said when asked by reporters what he will miss most during the 520-day confinement.
The researchers will communicate with the outside world via the Internet - delayed and occasionally disrupted to imitate the effects of space travel. They will eat canned food similar to that currently offered on the International Space Station and shower only once a week or so. Crew members will have two days off a week, except when emergencies are simulated, though they will still be in the capsules.
"Certainly, the crew is largely on its own here, with very limited communications with the outside world," Martin Zell of the ESA's Directorate of Human Spaceflight said. "They have to cope internally with a lot of conditions and to organize themselves."
A real mission to Mars is decades away because of huge costs and massive technological challenges, particularly the task of creating a compact shield that will protect the crew from deadly space radiation. US President Barack Obama said last month that he foresaw sending astronauts to orbit Mars by the mid-2030s.
The crew members said they were confident of success. Diego Urbina, the Italian-Colombian member, told a news conference that for him it would mean "accomplishing dreams about the future, doing something that no human has done before."
Psychologists said long confinement would put the team under stress as they grow increasingly tired of each other's company. Psychological conditions can be even more challenging on a mock mission than a real flight because the crew won't experience any of the euphoria or dangers of actual space travel.
French participant Romain Charles said he was bringing along a guitar to warm the atmosphere. Others said they would bring books, movies and pictures of their relatives.
The crew will split their days into eight hours of work, eight hours of sleep and eight hours of leisure.
"The routine is much more than on a real mission, there is a little bit less thrill," Zell said. "But I think their team spirit, and their motivation to go there and to accomplish the whole mission is enormous."
As part of efforts to keep the crew in good spirits, they will play an "interplanetary" match with former world chess champion Anatoly Karpov at some point during the experiment.The facility for the experiment is in western Moscow and includes living compartments the size of a bus connected with several other modules for experiments and exercise. A separate built-in imitator of the Red Planet's surface is also attached for a mock landing. The mission director, cosmonaut Boris Morukov, said the experiment could be disrupted for medical or technical reasons or if some of the participants categorically demand it be stopped. "Each crew member has the right to end the experiment and walk out," he said at a news conference. "We have had such negative experience in the past, and I hope it won't happen during this experiment." A similar experiment in 1999-2000 at the same Moscow institute went awry when a Canadian woman complained of being forcibly kissed by a Russian team captain. She also said two Russian crew members had a fist fight that left blood splattered on the walls. Russian officials downplayed the incidents, attributing them to cultural gaps and stress. Morukov said the organizers had considered some female candidates for the current experiment, but they hadn't been chosen for various reasons. "Selecting an all-man crew wasn't our goal," he said. Other crew members include Russians Alexey Sitev, 38, Sukhrob Kamolov, 37, Alexander Smoleyevsky, 33 and Wang Yue, 26, from China. The organizers said each crew member will be paid about $97,000 for taking part in the experiment. For Sitev, the mission captain, the experiment means separation from his wife just a few weeks after the two tied the knot. "It's difficult for me to part with my family, just as it is for any other person," he told journalists just before stepping in.

Modification of Permanent Parenting Plans in Tennessee
I worry when a client appears to be on the verge of giving up on getting the terms of an initial Permanent Parenting Plan just right. Whether they are in the throes of active blood-bath litigation or even just negotiating amicably in a mediation session, parties often will do just about anything to move forward quickly, including settling on a parenting plan with which they are not altogether satisfied. Many parties mistakenly believe that if they can just get divorced or otherwise get past entry of an initial parenting plan, things with the other parent will magically become easier. It is a misconception that a party can automatically revisit the parenting plan at a later date once the dust settles and simply fix whatever he or she feels needs to be fixed.
Parenting arrangements potentially can be modified in two primary ways: (1) changes to the residential parenting schedule; or (2) a change in "custody," i.e., the designation of the primary residential parent who has residential time with the children the majority of the time. Obviously, the latter is much more difficult to accomplish.
Modifying the Parenting Schedule
A party requesting only modification of the residential parenting schedule (but not a change of custody) must meet the standard set forth in Tennessee Code Annotated §36-6-101(a)(2)(C), which requires the petitioner to prove:
a material change of circumstance affecting the child's best interest. A material change of circumstance does not require a showing of a substantial risk of harm to the child. A material change of circumstance for purposes of modification of a residential parenting schedule may include, but is not limited to, significant changes in the needs of the child over time, which may include changes relating to age; significant changes in the parent's living or working condition that significantly affect parenting; failure to adhere to the parenting plan; or other circumstances making a change in the residential parenting time in the best interest of the child.
The aforementioned standard sets what is widely known among domestic practitioners as "a very low threshold for establishing a material change of circumstances. Indeed, merely showing that the existing arrangement has proven unworkable for the parties is sufficient to satisfy the material change of circumstances test." In practice, since the parties usually must first engage in alternate dispute resolution prior to returning to court, this presents an opportunity for both parties to revisit the parenting plan and tweak the provisions with which either or both of them are dissatisfied. Unless one party is dead set against any modifications to the parenting plan, the party who first sought to modify the parenting plan need not jump through large hoops to prove that a material change of circumstances has indeed arisen. The Amended Parenting Plan or, if applicable, the Agreed Order incorporating the modified parenting plan should contain a recital of the fact that a material change of circumstances has arisen and that the modified parenting plan is in the best interest of the children. However, unless it is evident from the record that the modified parenting plan is not in the children's best interest, trial courts usually do not seem to require much proof of a material change of circumstances before approving the modified parenting plan submitted for entry by the parties.
However, by the time a case makes its way to trial, proving a "material change" has indeed become an issue. By way of example, Tennessee courts have held that the following circumstances are considered "material changes" sufficient to justify a modification of the residential parenting schedule:
- More than 10 years after entry of the initial parenting schedule, the children developed new interests and focuses in their lives that the alternate residential parent forbade, including taking summer jobs, spending time with friends, and participating in outside activities while in that parent's care for the majority of the summer.
- When one parent relocates (for a legitimate reason) less than 100 miles away but still far enough away to result in the 50/50 equal parenting schedule becoming unworkable, it may be appropriate to modify the schedule such that one parent has standard parenting time (80 to 120 days per year) instead of 182.5 days. In Clement v. Clement, it was the mother who moved away, and the father's development of substance abuse issues was a factor in the reduction of his parenting time.
- An improvement in the circumstances of the alternate residential parent affecting the child's well-being Resolution of a parent's prior substance abuse issues could result in an award of parenting time when there was no such prior award.
In contrast, there are relatively few cases holding it improper to modify the residential parenting schedule. The following are a couple of the rare examples:
- If there is no material change in the circumstances that were the rationale for an award of no parenting time, a subsequent award of parenting time is not appropriate. In Hill v. Hill, the father was incarcerated for sexually abusing his step-daughter. In the parties' divorce proceedings, he was granted no parenting time with the parties' children. Post-divorce, while the father was still incarcerated, he petitioned the court for parenting time. The petition was denied, as the father failed to demonstrate a material change of circumstances. Although he claimed to have been rehabilitated, all evidence showed to the contrary, including his continued denial of any abuse toward the minor children.
- Remarriage of the alternate residential parent may not be considered a material change of circumstances justifying an award of additional parenting time in the absence of proof that there had been "significant changes" in that parent's "living or working condition that significantly affected" his or her parenting.
Changing Custody
A party requesting a change in custody must meet the standard set forth in Tennessee Code Annotated § 36-6-101(a)(2)(B), which requires the petitioner to prove:
a material change in circumstance. A material change of circumstance does not require a showing of a substantial risk of harm to the child. A material change of circumstance may include, but is not limited to, failures to adhere to the parenting plan or an order of custody and visitation or circumstances that make the parenting plan no longer in the best interest of the child.
Although the two subsections do not differ greatly in their substance, our courts have interpreted the statute to mean that in order to designate a different custodian for the children under subsection (B), the trial court must find that a more substantial change of circumstances has occurred than has to have occurred under subsection (C) to justify a less drastic change in a parenting plan, such as a change in the residential parenting or visitation schedule.
A parent's circumstances can change significantly, but if the change has little or no effect on the children, it is not appropriate to modify custody. Although there are no set rules defining what specific circumstances would constitute a material change justifying a change in custody, the court is to consider whether the change in circumstances has occurred after entry of the order sought to be modified, whether the changed circumstances were not reasonably anticipated when the underlying decree was entered, and whether the change is one that affects the child's well-being in a meaningful way.
If the petitioner makes a prima facie showing of the foregoing, then the court must next determine whether a change in custody is in the best interest of the child. The court is to engage anew in a comparative fitness test considering a number of factors, including those set forth in Tennessee Code Annotated §36-6-106(a), which are used in making an initial custody determination. These include, for example, the emotional ties existing between the parents and the child; each parent's ability to care for the child financially and otherwise; each parent's mental and physical health; and the reasonable preference of the child if 12 years of age or older. The court is also to consider the factors set forth in Tennessee Code Annotated §36-6-404 to fashion a residential schedule, including, for example, the emotional and developmental needs of the child, the employment schedule of each parent, and the willingness and ability of each parent to facilitate and encourage a close and continuing parent-child relationship between the child and the other parent. The court has a great deal of discretion in deciding which factors are most important, and which factors favor which parent, in any given case.
When considering whether to change custody, our courts hold the bar high because our laws and public policies favor stability and consistency for children. Removing a child from one parent disrupts that stability and is thus disfavored unless there is specific proof that it is in the child's best interest to be uprooted and placed with the other parent.
Tennessee courts have held that the following circumstances are considered a "material change" sufficient to justify a change in custody:
- Vindictive relocation of the children out of state;
- Joint custody arrangements becoming unworkable because the parties have proven themselves incapable of making joint decisions in the best interest of their children;
- Remarriage of the primary residential parent to someone whose influence is having a negative effect on the child, such as someone with prior felony convictions, including charges of domestic violence;
- Inappropriate restriction of parenting time between the alternate residential parent and the child; and
- A parent's inappropriate or indiscriminate sexual conduct involving neglect of the child (with the caveat that the mere fact that the parent cohabitates with a paramour is not generally sufficient to change custody unless this conduct is proven to negatively affect the child's well-being).
In contrast, Tennessee courts have held that the following circumstances are not considered a "material change" sufficient to justify a change in custody:
- Cohabitation of the primary residential parent with a paramour out of wedlock where it does not negatively affect the welfare of the minor children;
- Homosexuality of the primary residential parent where it does not negatively affect the welfare of the minor children;
- Evidence that the alternate residential parent and the child have grown much closer, even when coupled with testimony of the child's preferences;
- Hospitalization of the primary residential parent for a mental illness from which the parent suffered prior to the parties' divorce and of which the alternate residential parent was aware at the time of the divorce, but where the primary residential parent still was able to properly parent the children in spite of the illness; and
- Isolated episodes of poor parental judgment such as riding on four-wheelers with the children while drinking beer and without helmets.
People's circumstances inevitably change over the years. It is important that parenting plans keep up with these changes if the children are materially affected by the particular changed circumstances. However, it is equally important that changes to a parenting plan not be needlessly thrust upon a child who is doing fine and who would be better off if things stayed the same, despite minor or transient changes in a parent's circumstances. It is often said that the legal system should be used judiciously. There is perhaps no better example than legal proceedings involving children.

Gang Leader Held in Arizona – Toonerville Member Timothy McGhee
LAPD detectives, U.S. marshals and local authorities capture Timothy McGhee, sought in 12 vicious killings in the Atwater Village area.
By Andrew Blankstein and Richard Winton
Times Staff Writers
February 13, 2003A northeast Los Angeles gang leader labeled by authorities as one of the nation's most-wanted fugitives and sought in connection with 12 homicides was apprehended Wednesday in Bullhead City, Ariz., authorities said.
Timothy Joseph McGhee, 29, was captured without incident about 1 p.m. by more than two dozen officers from the Los Angeles Police Department, Bullhead City and federal law enforcement, said LAPD Lt. Horace Frank.
"He was ordered out of the car and onto the ground. He surrendered without a struggle," said U.S. Marshals Chief John Clark. "He did not say a word. One LAPD officer who knows him tried to engage him in conversation. McGhee just glared at him."
Over the last five years, the Police Department says, McGhee has either supervised or pulled the trigger in the slayings of a dozen gang rivals, witnesses and others unlucky enough to have crossed his path.
McGhee was on the U.S. Marshals Service list of 15 most-wanted fugitives. But although the Atwater Village gang leader allegedly is responsible for more killings than Charles Manson, he hasn't received much publicity, said Police Det. Andy Teague.
McGhee is expected to appear in the Mojave County courthouse in Kingman as early as today to begin extradition proceedings, Clark said. At this point, McGhee has been charged by the Los Angeles district attorney's office with one killing.
McGhee has eluded detectives since they linked him to the homicides last fall. As many as 60 local and federal investigators have worked to determine his whereabouts.
The break came when a reader of a Mojave Desert newspaper saw a story about McGhee, told authorities that he was living in Bullhead City and led them to an apartment there late Tuesday, Clark said.
A surveillance team observed a man they believed could have been McGhee but members could not get close enough to confirm his identity. Surveillance on the apartment led investigators to a nearby double-wide mobile home.
Authorities were preparing a search warrant for the home early Wednesday and planning an entry with the Bullhead City SWAT team when marshals watching the mobile home saw McGhee leave.
He was a passenger in a car driven by a woman, authorities said. The task force, along with SWAT officers, pulled the car over, Clark said. The woman "was unaware of McGhee's true identity," Clark said. "She did not know he was wanted. It came as quite a shock."
He was captured by officers of the LAPD fugitive warrants section, a U.S. Marshals Service task force and the Bullhead City SWAT team.
LAPD detectives say McGhee is the leader of the Toonerville gang, whose members claim a largely middle-class area that includes warehouses and $300,000 homes north of Los Feliz Boulevard between San Fernando Road and the Los Angeles River. The gang, formed in the late 1950s, also has members in Glendale, Sunland and Tujunga.
McGhee demanded absolute loyalty and led his charges like a military drill instructor, said Teague, who headed a team of detectives from the LAPD's Northeast Division.
McGhee's confederates were led in calisthenics and conducted target practice, rehearsed ways to elude police and take out rival gang members, Teague said.
The gang also posted armed sentries with cellular phones or walkie-talkies to guard the three main roadways that run in and out of their turf, according to police.
After an armed robbery July 4, 2000, gang members tossed debris, including washing machines and bicycles, in the street to hinder a police pursuit. They also fired numerous shots at officers, Teague said.
Three Toonerville gang members were found guilty of attempting to murder LAPD Officers Tom Baker and Carlos Langarica. McGhee was not charged in that incident.
McGhee was convicted in 1994 of assaulting a peace officer in San Bernardino County and sentenced to four years in prison. He was released after serving three years, and sent back in 1997 on a parole violation.
He was released in March 1999, violated parole again and was returned to prison in February 2000. He was released again two months later.
While he was on parole and staying with his grandmother in the San Gabriel Valley, McGhee took police science classes at Cal Poly Pomona, where detectives believe he was learning how police conduct investigations.
Each time McGhee was released from prison, police say, crime increased in the Atwater Village vicinity.
Until recently, detectives said they had difficulty linking McGhee to the killings because of fear and intimidation of neighborhood residents, rival gang members and his own associates. McGhee and fellow gang members would go out hunting for victims in a way that Teague compared to a big game hunt.
Police believe his killing rampage began in 1997 with the slaying of a rival gang member and two years later, police say, he was linked to the fatal shooting of a bodyguard for a rap artist at an Atwater Village music studio.
McGhee and fellow gang members also allegedly killed 16-year-old Ryan Gonzales in 2000, Teague said.
Gonzales happened to share McGhee's street name and he allegedly gunned down the victim as he walked home from a party in the 3300 block of Silver Lake Boulevard.
Investigators said they believe the motive was that McGhee didn't think the neighborhood was big enough for two people with the same nickname.
Police believe McGhee also fatally shot Marty Gregory Roybal, 17, who was sketching a picture at the Los Angeles River on Sept. 14, 2000, and then, seeing that a nearby homeless man — David Lamont Martin, 33 — might have been a witness, killed him too, police said.
McGhee is suspected of fatally shooting a Pomona resident, Manuel Apodaca, 21, and critically wounding his pregnant girlfriend, Nina Guerrero, on Los Feliz Boulevard near the Golden State Freeway in June 2001. Guerrero suffered severe brain damage, but was able to give birth.
The next month, McGhee ordered the killing of Carlos Velasco, a 21-year-old man working at a furniture warehouse on San Fernando Road, police said. McGhee had passed by and didn't recognize the man. He ordered gang subordinates to take care of the stranger, police said.
Three weeks later, McGhee killed Bryham Robinson, 38; Cheri Wisotsky, 46; and her mother, Mary Ann Wisotsky, 64, police said. McGhee heard that Cheri Wisotsky told police about drug dealing at the house of McGhee's sister in Atwater Village. Authorities allege that the others were killed because they were witnesses.
In November 2001, McGhee and fellow gang members, armed with handguns and assault rifles, went looking to kill a victim in rival territory, police said, in revenge for the slaying of a Toonerville member.
Instead, McGhee and his associates fatally shot Margie Mendoza and wounded her husband while they rode in their SUV in the 3100 block of Hollydale Drive, police say.

Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) and Bill Block (producer of District 9) have tapped into Andrew Marlowe's script called "EDF".
Someone over at Vulture has read the script and said it is a cross between "Top Gun" and "Independence Day" with a hint of "The Last Starfighter". The title "EDF" stands for Earth Defense Force. Not sure if that will stick. It is supposed to be about Earth's response to an imminent alien invasion.
Now I have faith in Sam Raimi for the most part. I will completely forgive him for Spider-Man 3, and Bill Block still has not done wrong. I'd like to see what Raimi can do with an alien flick because he sure knows how to deal with monsters and demons.
I just hope there is a volleyball scene in EDF. Top Gun Style.
Not enough Tom Cruise posts.

ADI Systems Heads to "Beer Capital of the World" to Help Brewers Treat Wastewater
ADI Systems is gearing up to exhibit its wastewater treatment and waste-to-energy solutions at the Craft Brewers Conference & BrewExpo America® event, which takes place April 14-17, 2015, in Portland, Oregon—a city that has been unofficially dubbed "the beer capital of the world."
The conference is the premier trade show for craft brewers and the largest brewing conference in the United States. Six hundred vendors and 5,000 brewing professionals from all over the world are expected to attend the event.
The brewing industry has been growing rapidly thanks to beer connoisseurs' demand for more varied and complex flavors. As production increases in such a water-intensive industry, beer producers must be mindful to conserve water wherever possible and dispose of by-products properly to minimize the environmental impact of their operations.
However, brewery wastewater contains various chemical and organic compounds, plus particulate matter such as yeast and spent grains, which can be difficult to treat. ADI Systems will be at booth #457 at the Craft Brewers Conference to meet with brewers to determine the most appropriate wastewater treatment option for their unique needs.
By investing in on-site wastewater treatment, your brewery can meet strict effluent limits to comply with regulations, conserve water, and even tap into green energy already present in the wastewater that could aid in your energy recovery efforts.

MonarchFx partners with NFI to build first DC
Highly automated facility will be first node in planned e-commerce fulfillment network, firm says.
Logistics service provider MonarchFx said today it had chosen a California location for the first in a series of distribution centers it plans to build around the country, and would construct the facility through a partnership with third-party logistics provider (3PL) NFI Industries.
Raleigh, N.C.-based MonarchFx will build the highly automated DC at an NFI site in Chino, Calif., marking the first facility in the firm's plan to build five DCs in time to start shipping products for e-commerce clients for the 2018 holiday peak season.
The company did not disclose the date the facility would begin operations, but said it was part of a plan to open five locations around the U.S. within the next six months. The other sites are planned for northern New Jersey, Chicago, Dallas, and Atlanta.
MonarchFx was launched in 2016 by the supply chain consulting firm Tompkins International, which has compiled an alliance of 3PL providers, software developers, and shippers in a bid to capture a share of the e-commerce fulfillment market for nationwide same-day, next-day, and two-day delivery.
The firm announced in November 2017 that it had landed sufficient outside funding to build a network of automated DCs it calls "Rapid Deployment MonarchFx Centers" (RDMCs), each constructed within a facility run by one of MonarchFx's 3PL partners and featuring products and services from its technology partners. Other companies in the alliance include DHL Supply Chain, Kenco Logistics, Softeon, and JDA Software Group Inc.
The Chino location will be embedded within an existing NFI campus, and will feature automated material handling equipment from Tompkins Robotics, an internet of things (IoT) platform from SensorThink, logistics software from Softeon, and the Tompkins Warehouse Execution System, the company said.
The facility will be capable of providing 19 million consumers with same day delivery, 22 million consumers with one-day delivery, and 51 million consumers with two-day delivery, according to MonarchFx.
