The Triple Double Shotgun: 6 Barrels and 48 Rounds
You read right, this beast of a shotgun has 6 barrels and holds 48 rounds at a time. The ultimate zombie apocalypse weapon.
Triple double is usually a term thrown around in basketball. Not so much in shotgun lingo. Double barrel shotguns are awesome. But you know what they are not as awesome as? A triple double shotgun.
Demolition Ranch brings us one of the coolest and craziest guns you will ever see. Sure it is super heavy and quite uncomfortable and to be honest, not practical once so ever. But that doesn't matter because it is also ridiculously awesome.
If Walking Dead was a real thing, and we must go on fighting zombies to survive, you can bet this is what I would be packing. Surely you could eventually hit your mark after 48 rounds.
Yes, 48 rounds. Each tube holds seven shells plus one in the chamber, amounting to a 16-shot capacity in each gun. You do the math. Simply put, he mounted three DP 12's together with a few bolts and nuts while synchronizing the pump actions together.
Quite genius and shockingly never done before, the triple double shotgun is pretty cool.
If you bring that to the range, you are guaranteed to turn some heads and have plenty of questions to follow.

(1) Check the horizontal radial runout and vertical radial runout of the piston rod during the reciprocating movement of the piston of each stage to check the comprehensive maintenance effect of the moving mechanism. Measuring the amount of runout in the vertical direction: A dial is mounted at the top of the piston rod at 12 o'clock and abuts against the pressurized packing. The needle of the disc must be perpendicular to the rod shaft. Measure the amount of runout in the horizontal direction: the dial is placed at the 3 or 9 o'clock position of the piston rod against the pressure-bearing sealing packing, depending on the "closeness" as close as possible.
(2) The connection between the piston rod and the crosshead must be properly tensioned, and the crosshead must be flat on the glide path and evenly fitted. Between the sliding track and the slide, the two ends should not be inserted into the gap of 0.04 mm at 6 o'clock, and the gap inserted in the four corner plugs of the glide path should be uniform.
(3) Press the "pinch" on the dial to make the pointer on the dial turn one turn on the dial surface, so that the pointer is aligned with the zero mark on the disc surface.
(4) Rotate the compressor 180° to move the piston from the fuselage end to the cylinder end. During this 180° displacement, the resulting reading, whether positive or negative, is the total runout and is recorded.

I don't like this product at all.
This product is awful. I bought it twice and both times it didn't work at all - not on marks not on anything. The first one ripped in two after just a couple of scrubs. Just an awful product all the way around.
Not My Sponge
I have never liked the magic eraser. It just crumbles away like an actual eraser. All I need is a regular sponge or clothe to wipe away anything. The "magic" sponge did not work any better. I wouldn't waste money on it. I won't even use them if I got them for free. I received a sample to try and did not like it. I was able to get a few more samples, only because my sister liked them, so I ordered them for her. I don't know why anyone would like them. I say, booooooo to the "magic" eraser.
No thanks
I am not a fan of manic markers. I think they are cancer causing and they discolour the paint on my walls. I will not purchase this product. No thanks. Not buying.
Does not work...
This is a product I was super excited to try this product, but its not worth the money. It only works partly on certain surface. It is way too expensive and not eco friendly since it can only be used a few time...
Don't buy it. Don't buy it.
This is a plain old sponge with soap and even the soap is awful. This product removes nothing that it promises to do and it is a complete waste of time and money. It doesn't remove stubborn stains. It doesnt even work for light marks!
like paper to fire... it just doesn't work.
Bought my colleagues and myself some for use at work (hotel) and at home. It broke apart just as quick as putting paper through a shredder or to fire... tested at home and work.
It's Not All That!
I purchased the Magic Eraser as I heard some people saying how good it is. I was terribly disappointed to find that I had to scrub ordinary dirt using a great deal of muscle. It did not really help much and fell apart during my first use. I would not purchase it again, nor would I recommend it.
dont be fooled
dont waste your time here. the product itself is okay. one time use and doesnt live up to its promise. does NOT erase most spills or marks. used it on my wall and it took the paint right off! looks worse than before. hard pass
Doesn't Work!
I got a sample of this and i don't know if maybe im using it wrong or something but it really doesnt work any better than a regular sponge from the dollar store or even a damp paper towel for cleaning surfaces.
I don't like them at all. They fall apart and just make a bigger mess. They don't last long at all, this would be my lease Favorite Mr. Clean product.

A total of 40.18 million sockeye are expected to return to Bristol Bay in 2019, the Alaska Department of Game announced Friday.
This is 10 percent smaller than the most recent 10-year average of Bristol Bay total runs (44.4 million) but 16 percent greater than the long-term (1963–2018) average of 34.2 million fish.
A run of 40.18 million sockeye salmon would allow for a potential total harvest of 27.6 million fish—26.11 million fish in Bristol Bay and 1.49 million fish in the South Peninsula, said ADFG.
This year, Bristol Bay saw the largest sockeye run since 1893 at 62.3 million fish. It also saw the largest gain to date in ex-vessel value for its salmon.
The district's sockeye salmon harvest was 41.3 million, and is the second largest harvest on record. The run was 21 percent above its preseason forecast of 51.3 million fish, with all districts except Egekik experiencing larger-than-expected runs.
Historically, sockeye salmon runs to Bristol Bay have been highly variable.
"Forecasting future salmon returns is inherently difficult and uncertain, ADFG said. "We have used similar methods since 2001 to produce the Bristol Bay sockeye salmon forecast which have performed well when applied to Bristol Bay as a whole. Since 2001, our forecasts have, on average, under-forecast the run by 11 percent and have ranged from 44 the actual run in 2014 to 19 percent above actual run in 2011.

Helpful tips when choosing a solar package
SolarKing will answer all your solar questions, ensuring the solar package you choose is the best solution for your needs now and in the future and one that gives you the best value for money.
The best way to determine the right solar power system for you is a no obligation in-home consultation with one of our solar power advisors.
In order to determine your power requirements, have your power bill handy and we will determine what your daily power use is and after discussing your lifestyle, power use patterns and the various aspects of your power requirements we can determine the correct size system for you.
This is very important as the main benefit from FREE solar power is to use it in your home. Producing too much and exporting it back to the power company for a small credit (only 7c to 10 c per kWh) is not a great benefit.
We will help you work out how much power you can use during the day and how to maximise your benefits by changing your consumption habits.
Relatively simple things such as putting a timer on your hot water system and maybe your washing machine and changing your power use habits where possible can maximise your benefits and minimise your power costs.
When choosing a solar package, there are a wide range of components available e.g. different brands and types of solar panels, broad range of solar inverters etc. We offer free, no obligation solar advice.
To help explain the various solar components included in our solar packages, we've put together informative Solar In a Nutshell videos to simplify your search for the perfect solar solution. We invite you to watch our videos and if you have any questions at all simply call the friendly SolarKing team on 0508 765 276, we're here to help.
How do I know which solar package to choose?
Our consultants will go over everything with you and after considering your power use and daily use profile will then consider the physical aspects of your home.
Naturally not all homes are the same, some have great north facing roof areas with no shading that are PERFECT for solar power.
Others may have several smaller roof areas facing in different directions.
A standard system may be perfect for you or you may benefit more from a micro-inverter solar package.
There is no one answer that suits all needs, we will recommend the correct technology and system size for your specific requirements.
If you have any questions about our solar packages, give the friendly team at SolarKing a call on 0508 765 276 – there is no obligation and we're here to help.
What size solar package do I need?
Whilst there is no definitive answer to this question, as an indication of the likely solar system size for your needs we give the following guidelines:
- Small home, 2 people low to average power users with low to medium daytime power use 1.5kW-2kW system
- Small to Medium Home, couple and 1-2 children, low to medium daytime user 2-3 kW system
- Medium to large home 3 or more people, low to medium daytime user 3-4 kW system
- Large home 4 or more people, medium to high daytime user 4-5 kW system
- Large Home, big family, swimming pool and spa, high daytime user, 5 kW system or even larger.
We will tailor your system to your specific needs, an in-home consultation is the best way to determine the right system for your specific needs.
If you have any questions about which size solar package would best suit your needs, give the friendly team at SolarKing a call on 0508 765 276 – there is no obligation and we're here to help.
Which Solar Panels should I choose?
When it comes to solar panels there are a vast range of options available.
However not all solar panels are created equal.
Internationally, solar panel manufacturers are rated as Tier 1, 2 or 3. Tier 1 being the most reliable and from the most reputable and financially secure companies and Tier 3 being potentially the least reliable.
At SolarKing we are direct importers of a range of solar products and through our international network of suppliers we have access to most products available in the market.
We only import proven Tier 1 products that are most suitable for NZ conditions.
With SolarKing you can rest assured that the products we represent are selected for quality and durability and are the very best available.
If you have any questions about our solar panels, give the friendly team at SolarKing a call on 0508 765 276 – there is no obligation and we're here to help.
What are Solar Inverters?
When it comes to solar inverters, the "brain" of the solar system there are also a lot of options in brand and manufacturer.
However in technology there are 2 choices:
The "string" inverter, which is the traditional technology for managing the current produced from your system and changing it from DC (direct current) to AC (alternating current) so that it can be used directly in your home.
Traditional string inverters have been in production for well over 30 years and are the tried and tested "standard" technology for solar power systems.
A string inverter is connected to a number of panels, referred to as a "string" or "array" of panels. The inverter controls the power generated by that particular string.
Generally the inverter is a very robust electronic component of your system, but like all electronic products there are various makes and models available and not all are equal.
At SolarKing we have always prided ourselves on representing the world's leading manufacturers and the string inverters that we supply are from the leading manufacturer SMA of Germany, the acknowledged world leader in inverter technology for over 30 years.
Our 2nd option in inverters is from an SMA group-owned company Zever Solar, based in China but with the same quality control principals that SMA prides itself on.
These inverters are proving to be "rock solid" as you would expect from a German owned and managed manufacturer and offer our customers an extremely cost effective and reliable option in solar inversion.
If you have any questions about our solar inverters, give the friendly team at SolarKing a call on 0508 765 276 – there is no obligation and we're here to help.
What are Micro Inverters?
Micro Inverters are small individual inverters that are mounted behind each solar panel, with every panel having its own inverter.
Micro inverters are a relatively new technology, but in certain circumstances have advantages over traditional "string" inverters.
With traditional "string" inverter systems, if one panel in a string is shaded then the whole array's production is affected due to the electronic management of the string.
With micro inverters each solar panel's production is maintained at full potential. Therefore if you have a roof area that is subject to some shading, for instance from a chimney, tree or similar, then micro inverters are a good choice.
Micro inverters also allow you to have panels on various different roof areas, ideal for homes that do not have just one ideal roof for panels. With a standard "string" inverter system there needs to be ideally at least 5-6 panels per string as the inverter requires a minimum voltage to engage ( normally around 100V) and therefore less panels, producing less combined voltage, will not turn on as early in the day or stay on later in the day as production drops.
With micro inverters each panel only needs around 17-20V to come on so you get the maximum production time from your panels and can install 1 or more panels on a roof and still get maximum benefit.
Our solar consultant can review your energy requirement, survey your property and recommended the right choice for you.

>>Download your Studio Owner Toolkit Here<<
When you think about the fact that about 50% of your students are coming through your website, through Google searches, it's pretty important that we are looking our best online and presenting your studio in the very best possible light.
What happens these days is that there are so many different places we can have our studio online that we can often lose track of what message we're communicating about our studio across all these different platforms and all these different touch points.
What we're going to do today is do a little bit of a facelift.
Let's see how are you presenting online, and how can we give you one consistent core message that positions you as the best, the go-to studio in your area.
Studio Online Audit
What we're going to do here is a little bit of an audit. We're going to see how are we presenting online and if we need to make a few little changes here or there.
How to begin your audit: start Googling your studio and print off everything you can find about your studio. I'd even go so far as to print off every page on your website.
Print off if you have a yellow page listing. If you are in any kids' directories or activity directories online. I want you to print out your Facebook "about us" page. You name it, get it printed.
Then we can lay it out. Get your dining table, and lay everything out and step back and have a look.
What I want you to do then is to think, "okay, if I knew nothing about this studio, if I knew nothing about what you did, what would I learn and what type of image would I gain from what we have here?"
I want you to look at how professional does it look. I want you to look at the type of images that you're using. I want you to look at the language of how you're describing your studio.
Have you got a core message that's kind of spread across every touch point? Have you got calls to action?
Let's have a look and think "how well are we marketing this across the board", and from there you can get a big red pen or get a highlighter and think "okay, we need to change that, that needs to be updated", and let's do a big revamp, a bit of a spring clean of your online image.
It's going to feel so good to get everything consolidated and really representing what you stand for and what you represent in your studio.
Three Powerful Questions to Ask
Let's dive into the nitty-gritty here and whilst we're doing this process there are three powerful questions that I like to ask.

And this is more technical than I care for..
For my course, we are creating our own agencies and I am working on a campaign for the Thamesdown Hydrotherapy pool charity in Swindon. They work with the disabled, the elderly, those who have just had an operation, and those with other impairments. Though, the pool is seriously hot and its ever so dark and we are not allowed to use any lighting! Nightmare. And not being technically brilliant, I'm finding it quite a challenge, and my pictures are coming out stupidly noisy. The only way I'll be able to use lighting is to get my own models, but will defeat the point of the campaign. However, recent communications may mean I might have a really exciting model coming in to help out! Fingers crossed!
Any one got any pointers?
I can't bear to show the photos as they are so bad, and I'm almost embarrassed to show these, but this gives an idea of what I have been attempting..

Taking Trust to the Field – Pilot Study on Trust and Communication in Teams

- Defence R&D Canada - Toronto, Toronto ONT (CAN);Humansystems Inc, Guelph ONT (CAN)
- Abstract
- This paper describes the results of a pilot study to explore trust in teams and team communication. A field trial involving 24 Canadian infantry soldiers in Fort Benning, Georgia was undertaken in conjunction with the Soldier Information Requirements Technology Demonstrator (SIREQ-TD). This trial involved 3 sections conducting at least 8 tactical assault missions over the course of several days. Teams were required to manoeuvre on assigned routes through a heavily wooded area, to dispatch an enemy sniper encountered enroute, and to overtake two enemies occupying a defensive position at the final destination. After each mission was completed, trust within the team was measured using the Trust in Teams Scale (Adams & Bruyn, 2003). During each mission, all communications were logged using a radio system. All communications were analyzed into discrete transmissions, and coded by type (transfer, request for information, acknowledgement), function (related to location, status), and referent (friendly or enemy) according to a classification system developed by Entin et al. (1993). In addition, the content of communications was also analysed for trust relevant events, in accordance with our existing model of trust in small teams (Adams & Webb, 2002).

Sometimes we just need to take a look at someone else's circumstances to realize that ours isn't so bad. Sarah is the person that I think about when I feel bad about my parenting skills or when I feel like my situation has gotten a little complicated. Sarah was married to Abraham, of Father Abraham fame. Some people refer to him as the Father of the faith. He's a pretty major deal. Since we know that behind every great man is an even greater woman, we can conclude that she's a pretty major deal as well. She was gorgeous. Men were chasing this woman well into her 80's. Sarah was beautiful but she was also barren, which was a real bummer back in biblical days. God had promised Abraham a son, but ninety years had passed and she still wasn't pregnant.
It's not that Sarah didn't believe God's promise for a son, she just wanted to help a little bit. You know how we mothers can be, right? So what does Sarah do? She doesn't get an ovulation calculator, or basal thermometer to check her fertile days, she tells her husband to go ahead and make a baby with her servant-girl, Hagar. He happily obliges and the end result is a baby boy named Ishmael. His cuteness wears off quickly and Sarah banishes both Hagar and Ishmael to the desert to die. Thankfully, God saves both of them and Sarah eventually has her own child at the ripe old age of 90.
"Wow!" is all I can say about this woman. There are so many layers to this story. Where do I even start? She wouldn't have gotten into this dilemma if she didn't give her husband to another woman! That was her first mistake. Second, children are never to blame for our mistakes. Poor Ishmael took the brunt of his parents bad choices.
As bizarre as the story is, we actually have a lot to thank Sarah for. I thank her for making me feel better about my step-parenting skills. Even though Mila has brought me to the brink on a few occasions (and vice versa), I can honestly say I've never once thought of doing what Sarah did to Ishmael! We live in the desert so I know how unbearable it can be when the temperature reaches the triple digits. I've gotten frustrated with my kids before, but never to the point of wanting to melt them in the sun. We also need to express gratitude for the way she effectively created such a complicated situation between her, Abraham and Hagar that all other families seem much less dysfunctional.
Although I wouldn't go to the lengths she did, Sarah reminds me of myself in some ways. It's hard for stepmothers to leave things well enough alone. We are always trying to fix things and help things along. She doubted God, laughed at the prospect of having a baby in her old age, and then tried to undo the problems she created by making them disappear. We might judge her for her bad choices, but God actually commends her in Hebrews 11:11 as a woman of great faith. This tells me that God's grace is so much bigger than all the mistakes I've made in my stepfamily. Sometimes that's all I need to hear.

What a beautiful family home . We stayed at Redwood for a week. This is a large, well maintained and beautifully furnished property. It has all the comforts you would want in a holiday home from the games room, fabulous collection of toys and a selection of books and DVDs to chose from and not to forget the lovely surrounding garden. It is situated in a great location just a short walking distance from the high street and the beach. It is also a short drive from the many golf courses and other beaches and not to mention Archerfields that we visited for a very relaxing day at the Spa. The staff at Coast Properties were lovely , thank you Gillian for being so welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend this family home and would not hesitate in returning ourselves.

Happy New Year's Eve! What are your plans for tonight? Our super exciting plans involve snuggling our three kids who are recovering from a nasty case of influenza, and sanitizing the ENTIRE house from this sickness. Exciting, huh?!
It's been a long 9 days of caring for sick little ones…hence the reason for the lack of blogging the last couple weeks. One sick child requires a lot of care, attention, and patience…but three at the same time? That requires lots of prayer each day for extra care and patience!
As I think back on 2012, my heart overflows with thanks. God is so good! Today, I plan to try and snatch a few quiet moments to write down some goals and resolutions for 2013. Maybe I'll share some of those with you tomorrow?
For today, I wanted to re-cap my blog in 2012. My blog is something very important to me, and God has used it in great ways in my life. While I do not blog as regularly as I'd like to, the times that I do get to write are encouraging and uplifting. I have a love for words and writing, and expressing my heart through them has been fantastic! Thank you to each and every one of you who read my blog, and thank you to those of you who leave comments. I LOVE hearing from you!
In fact, I'd love to hear if there's a specific topic you like reading about on my blog. What would you like to read more about in 2013?
In 2012, my blog received 9,700 views! Cool!!
Surprisingly, my most popular blog post was one that wasn't even written this year…it was written in 2011, and showcased my baby boy's vintage car nursery. Apparently, lots of readers have found my blog via searching for photos of vintage car nurseries. Who knew?! You can view that post here.
My second most popular post of 2012 was my very first blog giveaway. I didn't know it would be so popular! Maybe I should give away more items on my blog?! That giveaway featured my most favorite book of 2012, One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp. Although I have no more copies to give away, you can still read about this fantastic book here if you haven't already done so.
My third most popular post of 2012 included a special request for my readers to join me in supporting a ministry called "Mary's Meals." A friend of mine was trying to raise $11,500 in order to build a school kitchen in Africa to feed those much less fortunate than us. You can read about that here. My family, friends, and blog readers pulled through, and we were able to contribute a good sum of money to this wonderful cause! In fact, the total pledges for this cause came in $1,000 over what was needed. That money will go toward feeding those children in the kitchen we've helped to fund. Such a beautiful gift this Christmas!
Thank you to my readers for actually reading what I had to say this last year. 🙂 I appreciate each one of you! Happy New Years Eve, and here's to a fantastic 2013!!!!


text: Cypha 5 Report post Posted August 2, 2018 Ok so I have a sport 100bhp engine married up to a 1.4 75hp box. It had been converted to bike carbs but never been fired up yet, but here's the question. The bike kit wants a VR sensor but it appears I have a hall sensor which I can work around with resistors. My only concern is I left the standard sport flywheel on the engine before I mated the box and now I am thinking that the sensor might be too far away from the flywheel as the 75hp and 100hp might be different diameters. Can't tell as google searches returned nothing in terms of flywheel diameters and I can't measure the flywheel since it is in the car. Does anyone know if the 1.4 75hp gearbox can be mounted to the sports engine WITHOUT changing the flywheel? I.E will the teeth and diameter configuration match up to get sensed by the 75hp crank sensor. Hope that makes sense. Any help would be appreciated as I really do not want to take the engine out again just to measure the flywheel! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Serve, Grow, Excel
As Singapore celebrates its 50th year of independence in 2015, we are reminded that our nation's success does not come by chance and hope. Our forefathers and pioneers of Singapore had put in a lot of hard work to bring us to where we are today. They had made huge sacrifices and showed great resilience in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles and challenges. The fortitude they showed is admirable. Let us show our gratitude to our unsung heroes, learn from them and build on the success.
In the same way, former staff and students of Chua Chu Kang Secondary School had put in much effort to build a good reputation for the school. We want to thank them for all their work. Let the school motto - Serve, Grow, Excel – guide us as we chart a new path forward. Success can only come from a compelling vision, an unquenchable passion and an enduring diligence. The road to success will not be easy but can be achieved by conscious effort to improve each and every day, moving forward relentlessly even if the way forward is tough going. It is in such difficult situations that our character is developed and true champions emerge. Persevere and stride forward, one step at a time, and believe in yourself.
Dear students, an all-rounded development and achievement are what you should be aiming for. Push yourself to achieve the best you can in your studies and do well also in your character development through various programmes that the school provides for you. In everything you do, put in your best effort. Take pride in your work, make your parents proud and make your teachers and school proud. Your teachers will work just as hard if not more to support you in your quest for success. They care for your well-being and want you to succeed as much as you do. Your success is their best reward. Together we can achieve our school vision of a dynamic community of lifelong learners and confident leaders. I wish you success in all your endeavours in 2015 and in the years ahead.

Udinese ended their crisis with a 4-0 result, including three penalties, and inflicted the first defeat of the season on 10-man Sampdoria.
The Blucerchiati were still unbeaten, albeit with a game in hand, and fresh from a 2-0 victory over big-spending Milan. It was a return to the Dacia Arena for Duvan Zapata, who spent the last two years on loan to Udinese, and was partnered by another ex-Friuli forward, Fabio Quagliarella. The hosts had lost five of their six games and missed Danilo, Emil Hallfredsson and Silvan Widmer.
Samp had been unbeaten against Udinese since a 1-0 result here in November 2015, earning a win and two draws, home and away.
Rodrigo De Paul really should've opened the scoring after two minutes, but horribly scuffed the finish from 12 yards, while Antonin Barak also failed to make the most of a promising position.
Bram Nuytinck's sliding block prevented Duvan Zapata scoring from a tight angle on the Dennis Praet assist.
Udinese had the better of the overall play, showing the effects of spending a week in a training retreat, but were gifted the opener when Christian Puggioni mistimed his run and clattered into the back of Maxi Lopez just inside the area. The referee pointed to the spot and De Paul converted into the near bottom corner.
Puggioni almost made another naïve error, parrying De Paul's cross-shot at the base of the near post. It was an ill-tempered game with many mistimed tackles and Edgar Barreto was responsible for two of them, sending Sampdoria down to 10 men on 40 minutes.
Gaston Ramirez still forced Bizzarri to fingertip his header out from under the bar on a free kick.
Udinese should've doubled their lead after the restart on the counter when Jakub Jankto sprinted from his own half and rolled across for Lasagna, but Puggioni performed a remarkable reaction save from close range.
Quagliarella's snapshot from distance tested Bizzarri and he fired another effort wide, but within two minutes of coming off the bench, Seko Fofana had gone on a mazy run and was tripped by Lucas Torreira. This time Maxi Lopez converted the penalty into the bottom corner against his former club.
Valon Behrami was stretchered off with what appeared to be an upper thigh strain, making way for Andrija Balic.
Samp didn't give up, even down to 10 men, and substitute Dawid Kownacki saw his strike charged down in the box by desperate defending.
Maxi Lopez hit the underside of the bar after a chaotic move with Jankto and De Paul shots ricocheting around, but had strayed offside.
Moments later, Maxi Lopez sprung the offside trap on a De Paul assist and placed a delightful chip over the on-rushing Puggioni to complete his brace.
Deep into stoppages, Fofana went on another brave run and went over as he was nudged in the back by Ferrari. This time, Fofana decided to take the penalty himself and put it in the same corner as Maxi Lopez for 4-0.

There is not much to praise about Rahul Gandhi yet. He is just a publicly elected MP; with some organsizational experience as the president of a major national political party. So not much can be said about his performance as a Prime minister (even a Minister). But one thing seems for certain, he is far more responsible, good and well reasoned than many of us think him to be.
This very distinction came to light when West Bengal Pradesh Congress Committee member Rajiv Sinha filed a complaint over a scene in the web-series, Sacred Games (based on this book , Hindi), in which the protagonist, played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, uses derogatory language while speaking about late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.
Within a couple of days of the complaint, Rahul tweeted,
"BJP/RSS believe the freedom of expression must be policed & controlled. I believe this freedom is a fundamental democratic right. My father lived and died in the service of India. The views of a character on a fictional web series can never change that."
Isn't it a statement of a responsible human being?
Particularly when, BJP leadership wants to create issues out of nothing. So that no one can question it on real issues such as job, price-rise, farmer distress.
Rahul's response to the situation is responsible, intelligent and balanced for another reason — When people are being lynched for suspicion of child-theft, food in their lunch box, then there is no reason to make an unnecessary controversy/promotion about a fictional web series. If Rahul Gandhi thinks that his voice must be used for more pressing issues such as jobs, price-rise, farmer distress, mob lynchings and law-and-order situation, then he is correct.
BTW, day before yesterday, the Congress member has also withdrawn the complaint against Netflix series Sacred Games.
Sacred Games co-director Anurag Kashyap, actor Swara Bhaskar have praised Rahul Gandhi's gracious stand over the issue. Part of the praise might be for his ability to keep National interests before the personal ones. Part of the praise might be for him not indulging in small talk, gossip, foot in the mouth behavior, chronic complaining and pedling of conspriarcy theories all the time.
Lets see how he functions in future days, months.

Marj's Book
Excerpts from My Side, Reflections of a Public School Teacher, by Marj Passman
It was the middle of August and I had come to Lincoln Elementary School to set up my fifth-grade classroom. The heat and humidity of the Madison summer was oppressive, and I went to open the windows for some relief. Staring back at me from the other side was this big smiling face, barely reaching over the window frame. I took one look and recognized the boy who was always cheerful and happy whenever I saw him in the school hallways. He introduced himself as William, and I realized that he was on my class list.
Chapter 4: The New Teacher
Remember the saying, "This is the first day of the rest of your life"? Every year the first day of school echoes this hope. Many teachers have been preparing all summer and have already been in their classrooms for weeks (without pay) setting them up. They have their class lists, materials are ready, and all are hoping for a great year ahead. Most have already spent hundreds of dollars of their own money on supplies for their room.
Chapter 11: The Supreme Pleasure of Getting it Right
We teachers all have incredible stories to tell, each one illustrating the uncanny ability we had in dealing with difficult school situations. Maybe they are inside jokes, but we know a good one when we hear it, and there are those days where success comes in unexpected ways.

Nilai 3 Is The Biggest Whole sale Center In Whole Malaysia For Home Decoration Goods Like Carpet,Bamboo Mat,Chair (Kursi Malas),Flowers,Furniture And Many Other stuff Related To Home Decoration,
The Success of Nilai 3 wholesale center, Malaysia
Nilai 3 wholesale center is undoubtedly a one-stop destination of wholesale, tourist and shopping paradise that offers a wide variety of goods and items at very attractive and competitive prices. Especially its located in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia where very rare having this kind of concept.
"Quick Jump to – Latest Nilai-3 news – Malaysia"
In judging from its sheer size — 165ha — It is currently still holds the record as the country's largest wholesale center even though there are some areas try to establish same concept. It is not easy to emerge as such and success like Nilai-3, Malaysia. Apparently, hard work from the management and state government linkage is crucial. They have done a great job on this.
When we visited this place last year, 2007 it still have some free lands to be developed in future. Recently, the developer just completed some rows of shop named Istanabul near the first entrance junction. Roughly about 40 newly built shops there. This is an additional good news for tourist. After completed these shops, size of the unoccupied land is reduced by some portion. We do believe in the near future there will be some more shops to be build by developer. This is to cope with the people coming to this place especially weekends and public holidays.
Short history of this famous place in Negeri Sembilan :
The centre was initially set up in December 2001 to promote goods from China. At that time, China market just opened to the world. It then, evolved to what it is now; aimed at drawing visitors particularly city and town folks of KL and Seremban to come and experience shopping in the outskirts. Not forgetting, during weekends and public holiday this place is crowded with people who are coming by bus from all states. It is a fast gaining popular warehouse shopping center.
The majority of shops comprise textile dealers selling merchandise at wholesale prices. Among the goods include furniture, car accessories, carpets, garden equipment, bags, luggage, sexy dressing, ladies accessories and others. Lately, NGV installer also set up there. Undeniably, it will give visitor convenience to do some NGV servicing or Installing works while family members can shop around. Fantastic concept!
If you drive to the place, look out for signages. They are a lot of sign boards displayed at the main road when you are closed to this area. You should check out this area and you might end up with a good bargain!

I must admit to having had a wry smile at work today. At the height of the holiday season and with this week being the most expensive week in which to pay good money to go away for a holiday, I looked out of the window at the torrential rain. If nothing else it would save me the cost of a car wash. There's no denying that there was a lot of bird dung that needed to be washed off of the car.
An early start at work today, and apart from a game of "Granny Alphabet" (find a name a "Granny" might have for every letter of the alphabet), work was dull. But the early start made for an early finish, and so I popped to Lidl's to get supplies for the weekend. In the past I've blogged about how cheap beer is when home-brewed. However home brew does take a bit of preparation. Ideally I need to start brewing two months in advance. And having had quite a few occasions recently that required copious amounts of beer, events have conspired against my having a batch ready for this weekend. So I popped into Lidl who do beer at about half the price that the local vineyard does. They might not have quite such a good selection of the more obscure ales, but Spitfire's not a bad drop really. And Lidl do a decent port reasonably cheaply.
There was a minor incident in the car park – I reversed probably too close to a tree, got distracted and forgot I hadn't switched off the engine. When I stalled the engine there was a little lurch backwards into the tree, and now there's a small crack on the rear back light. Whilst there's no other damage and it all works fine, I expect it will require replacing when MOTs become due. With work needing doing to the steering rack at the next service, there's another three hundred quid down the drain.
And so home – where I saw one of our lights in the living room had blown. In an attempt to replace the blown bulb I managed to leave half the bulb in the light fitting. I shall wrestle with it later (in the daylight). I really don't need the aggravation (or the expense) of replacing the light fittings: after all they are only a couple of months old.
Thank heavens it's pay day tomorrow….

McAuley Catholic Primary School was established by the Sisters of Mercy in 1967. Today we still maintain a close association with the Mercy Sisters through our motto 'Seek the Truth' which encourages the charism, culture and values of the Mercy Order: Mercy, Compassion, Justice, Service and Excellence.
At McAuley our mission, Mercy tradition and values are truly embedded into our culture. The children are aware of the history and story of our founder Catherine McAuley. They know and understand the call and mission of the Mercy Sisters in contemporary society. Much of this has come about through the annual celebration of McAuley Day and our partnership with the Sisters of Mercy. This history and heritage to be 'Mercy People' is very important to our school and for our students.
Our school song and motto 'Seek the Truth' are evident in everything we do, our children are McAuley grown, our community and culture is proud and strong. McAuley is a one-stream school that caters for boys and girls from Kindergarten to Year 6. There are 165 children currently enrolled in the school.

Creating Waves of Awareness
An epidemiological survey conducted by SHMC & Hospital and Institute of Nuclear Medicine & Allied Sciences, Delhi, India, under the
first phase of EMR project on "Effects of
Homoeopathic treatment on natural history of autoimmune thyroiditis" by AYUSH
Screening of 4543 children between 6-18 years of age from different schools of Delhi
was done during the first phase of research study under EMR project by AYUSH, for
thyroid function status-clinically, serologically & ultrasonographically. Data
of 4506 children has been analyzed & it has been found that goiter is prevalent
at mild endemic level in children (17%) even after two decades of iodization.
Significant increase in anti TPO ab positivity (6.39%) and thyroid dysfunction (11.92%)
raises suspicion about the role of environmental goitrogens and prolonged
iodine supplementation.
This abstract is from the research paper published by Thyroid Clinic, Dr B R Sur Homoeopathic Medical College & Hospital, New Delhi in Indian Journal of Medical Research in Homoeopathy (IJRH), a peer reviewed journal by Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy (CCRH). The full article is available in July-Sept 2009 issue of the council.

A company needs to be believed in in order to succeed. A company needs to have people behind it who will do all that they can to make it a success, in order for it to get known. OrganoGold has that. This company has people who are behind it and fully supporting it. This company has a founder who believed in it enough to do all that he can for it. This company will go places because of the faith that the people who are working for it have in the products that it sells.
OrganoGold is all about the Chinese herb that they are selling. They car about the product, and they want to share it all around the world. They have been working hard to do that, and they have been succeeding at it. How did they get started, though? Who decided to take this leap of faith and hope that the trend of using the Chinese herb would catch on?
Bernardo Chua is the man who started this company. He is the man who decided to go ahead and give this a shot. He was a businessman before, and he has a lot of experience in the business world. He knows what it takes to succeed with a company, and he has given OrganoGold his all. He is working hard to make this company work, because he believes in the products that it is selling. He believes that the world should hear about this Chinese herb, and he is doing all that he can to make it happen.
So, if you were wondering why OrganoGold is succeeded when a lot of other companies crash and burn, then there is the reason. It takes a good leader in order for a company to really thrive.

The Rae Lakes Loop, Kings Canyon NP
One of the best hikes in the United States is the Rae Lakes Loop in the Sierra Nevada. This challenging backpacking trip requires five or more days to complete and takes hikers through some of the best – and most remote – country the High Sierra has to offer. For much of its length it follows the John Muir Trail, and this is in fact the section where the grandest scenery is found. However, this section also crosses Glen Pass, an imposing barrier of rock nearly twelve thousand feet high.
To call the Rae Lakes loop challenging is certainly an understatement. There is the pass which cannot be avoided. There is the fact that for the entire length of it no realistic chance of resupply exists, meaning the hiker must carry everything they need, including food, clothing and shelter. There are numerous swift stream crossings along the way, some of which can be dangerous if the water is high.
There are bears and rattlesnakes, and some of the footway is rough, or exposed to bad weather, or the full force of the hot summer sun. And there is the unavoidable fact that once in the backcountry, there is no easy way to get out. There will be times when the hiker is two days or more walk from any road.
Despite all the above, the Rae Lakes Loop is quite popular in season, as its scenic pleasures – particularly those of Sixty Lakes Basin – are more than enough to offset the challenges. The first valley you will visit on the hike is called, aptly, Paradise. And the best parts of the hike truly lie beyond Paradise itself.
For the experienced backpacker, the challenges of the Rae Lakes Loop are actually considered quite moderate. Apart from the pass – which presents no serious problem for a well-conditioned and acclimated hiker – the trail itself is not especially difficult. Violent thunderstorms do roll through, but still, the weather here in summer season is about as moderate as any mountain range gets, with far more sunny days than bad.
The water crossings are typically a serious threat only in the early summer when the snow mass is melting, or after heavy downpours, and can most often be avoided. And the bears pose no serious threat if food is stored properly. Finally, because it is a loop, no shuttle or hitchhike is required. You simply arrive back where you started, some days later.
Many of the challenges of this hike are purely logistical, and this includes getting there. The trailhead is accessed via State Route 180, at the appropriately named Roads End in Kings Canyon National Park. Roads End is thirty winding and scenic miles from Grant Grove visitor center, which is itself over an hour from the nearest major city, Fresno.
Once at Grant Grove, hikers must pick up a wilderness permit in order to stay in the backcountry overnight. These permits can be applied for in advance in some cases, but even if you do, the permit MUST be picked up the morning of the hike, no exceptions. Most trails that access the backcountry in Kings Canyon are subject to quotas limiting the number of hikers in season, and Road's End is no exception.
With the permits out of the way comes the next item which is the rules and regulations. There are many of these, but the most important deal with bear safety. All Hikers MUST carry a park sanctioned bear-proof canister with them. Again, there are no exceptions. No 'bear bags' hung by ropes etc are allowed. You either bring a bear canister or you risk having your permit revoked…which means, you don't hike.
From the park website…
"…Wilderness visitors must use portable park-approved animal-resistant food-storage containers within the Rae Lakes Loop vicinity, North Dome, the Dusy & Palisades basins, and the Rock Creek drainage. This requirement is in effect from May 1 through October 31. All garbage, scented items & food must be stored in the containers. Where containers are required, the counter-balancing technique of hanging food is prohibited…"
And by the way, if you hike anywhere between October 31 and May 1, you had better bring snowshoes, heavy snow gear, ice ax, crampons, and the requisite knowledge on how to use them. Snowfall in the High Sierra is measured in yards, not feet.
Despite all of these logistical challenges, thousands of hikers every year opt to take this loop, largely because whatever the obstacles, the Rae Lakes Loop is still FAR less of a challenge than the complete John Muir Trail. There is no easy road to Paradise, but this is the easi-EST way.
In 2014 Brian completed the Rae Lakes Loop with friends, taking six days to do so. It was an especially challenging hike that pushed he and his gear to the very limits. Over the following days we will post an account of this epic journey through John Muir's celebrated range of light…the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. To Paradise, and beyond.
Next Up…Road's End.

Jim and Mike Ring have kept their lips tight about Madam V, the newest build from the Wisconsin-based Ringbrothers! They've brought their eye for melding modern performance and styling with vintage sheet metal to a 1948 Cadillac Series 62.
The Madam V gets its name from the 2016 Cadillac ATS-V chassis underneath, featuring Cadillac's 464 hp, 3.6L twin-turbo V6 and 8-speed automatic. There's about 7,500 man hours of work in Madam V, chopping up two ATS-Vs to lengthen one chassis 14 inches while also incorporating modern Cadillac V-series styling cues, like the ATS-V's mesh grille and hood extractor. The Ringbrothers also used carbon-fiber in the custom fenders, bumpers, and hood, with carbon details found throughout the build.
Madam V will be officially unveiled in the Flowmaster booth (#22351) in the Central Hall on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 1:30 p.m. PST.

Children with Santa at the Warehouse Christmas party
Women's retail company Warehouse brought Christmas to Evelina London Children's Hospital on Wednesday 17 December by turning its glass atrium into the North Pole.
Warehouse spent more than two days decorating the atrium and turning it into a winter wonderland full of excitement including a Santa's grotto, presents, face painting and lots of festive cheer.
During 2014, Warehouse's fundraising team hosted activities including bake sales, sample sales, auctions and a Warehouse store-to-store relay marathon to raise a grand total of £6,088 for Evelina London.
This is Warehouse's fifth year of support for Evelina London.
Laura Warden-Brown, one of this year's chief fundraisers at Warehouse, says: "As a successful company, we feel it is very important to give back to the community. Evelina London is such an important charity for Warehouse, as it is very close to all of our hearts. We love coming back year after year to put a smile on these children's faces."
Marian Ridley, Director of Evelina London, adds: "We are so grateful to Warehouse for all that they do for us. We look forward to the Christmas party every year. They really do bring Christmas into the heart of the hospital which means that children who can't be home for Christmas get to experience the fun and joy of the festivities."
The decorations will stay up for children and visitors in the Evelina London atrium until the New Year.
