I first wrote about Tom Hafey in 2011. Sadly, the former Australian rules football player and coach recently passed away at age 82. As for his relevance to this site, I didn't write about Tom Hafey because of his coaching or athletic career. I admittedly know little if anything about Australian rules football. What fascinated me about Tom Hafey wasn't his sporting experience, but rather the enthusiasm that he had towards life. Even as he approached 80 years old, Tom Hafey continued to exercise with a daily routine that would put most youngsters to shame.
In the video below (filmed last year), Hafey shares some of his wisdom regarding health and longevity.
Hafey's simplistic routine certainly allowed him to age gracefully. As he neared his 80th birthday, he was even asked to portray a healthy 70 year old in the commercial below. It wasn't difficult for him to play the part of a younger man.
Tom Hafey is the type of person whose story is worthy of remembering and sharing. It is one thing to read about aging, yet entirely different to hear from someone who walked the walk with obvious success. Hafey lived life to the fullest and was able to remain healthy and active with a regular dose of calisthenics. The work that he performed is readily available to all. He did not rely on a commercial gym or any specific equipment. Instead, Tom Hafey subscribed to the idea that the world is our gym. The secret to his success was rooted in hard work and consistency. He didn't do anything flashy, but he did keep doing. And while some may argue that is routine was overly simplistic or repetitive, it's impossible to argue with the results.
RIP to a true inspiration.
"Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children." – George Bernard Shaw

POWER VIEW has been deprecated. Now you must use Power BI Desktop
Presentation of Power View
Power View was a tool in Excel 2013 Pro Plus to create interactive dashboard.
Each element (chart, map, table of value) can interacted with the others.
For instance, if you select a slice of the pie chart, this will filter all the others element according to the selection
Technology of Power View
Power View has been developed with the technology Silverlight. Unfortunately, this technology has been depreciated by Microsoft in October 2012. So it was obvious that Power View in its original state couldn't evolve.
In fact, in the same time, HTML5 was much more robust, quick and light than Silverlight. So it was necessary for Microsoft to develop a similar tool but base on HTML5.
Power View with Excel 2016
Power View is not visible by default in Excel 2016. Nowhere in the ribbon, you can find it.
For compatibility reason, Power View could be installed by activating the tool from the menu Options>Custom Ribbon
But, that was at the beginning of Excel 2016. It seems in 2018 that none of the Power View dashboard couldn't opened.
What is the future of Power View?
In fact, now, the best way to create interactive dashboards is to use Power BI Desktop. And there is many reason for that:
- The tool is free
- You can connect to many different sources
- Manipulate easily your data (Power Query)
- Create your own measures (Power Pivot)
- You have tons of visuals to present your data
- Share easily your dashboards to a specific audience
Have a look at this example to understand the type of dashboard that you can do with Power BI Desktop.

Hi, Folks,
Please forgive the lack of updates the last few weeks. My wife and I welcomed our baby daughter into the world 2 weeks ago, and between that and important projects at work, I haven't had the time to post, but I intend to get back to it any day now.
I also wanted to let anything who might interested in knowing, however, that another project I started and quickly abandoned in favor of working on this site, Life
Anyway, I am accepting offers through Sedo and plan to send it to auction in the next few days.

Bergan Hospital
Omaha, NE
Omaha, NE
The project consisted of installing a helical tieback system to strengthen a new 80 feet long driven steel sheet pile wall. The helical tieback system was designed to retain the wall during construction with cut excavations in front of the wall exceeding 15 feet. Construction on other portions of the hospital was to be on-going during tie-back installation.
The helical tie-back system, designed by Thiele Geotech, Inc., called for installing one to two rows of 1.5" square shaft helical tiebacks at about a 5 to 6 foot spacing through the driven sheet piles. The tiebacks generally consisted of either a double 10"-12" diameter helix blade lead section or a triple 10"-12"-14" diameter helix blade lead section. The tiebacks were installed to lengths on the order of 25 to 30 feet beyond the wall face.
Torque readings in the range of 3800 to 5500 ft-lbs were achieved during installation with ultimate capacities on the order of 38 to 55 kips, or 68 to 140 percent higher than the required design ultimate capacity of 22.5 kips. A total of nineteen (19) helical tie-backs were installed.
Despite limited working space and heavy construction traffic, the helical tie-backs were installed in less than 3 days.
Upon completion, BDB was required to conduct a static load test on each of the nineteen tiebacks. With the help of Grip-Tite's Dealer Development Manager, BDB loaded up each tieback to a capacity no less than 15 kips for a period of 10 minutes. Quality control was conducted by Double D Excavating and engineers and technicians with Terracon Consultants, Inc.

There are things I love to hunt for whilst I thrift…one of them is Paint by Numbers paintings. At this point I have acquired four of them. I only have two
framed right now.
Most of these were found at the Sacramento Antique Fair back when I lived in Folsom, CA.
Since moving back to LA, I haven't gotten out to a flea market or even thrifted much.
I intend to start again after we move and acquiring stuff will actually be helpful…as of right now, our space is so small, nothing but baby stuff is allowed to come in. Ha!

Welcome to another linkup week and my favorite Moda/Style/Fashion day of the week. I have been very very much MIA but I have a good reason, which I explained here. Today I am back with another Vacation OOTD (from our vacation a month ago), featuring two Lovely Dresses worn by my sweet Viv and I. I have been meaning to post these photos at least two weeks ago, but such is life. Better late than never I guess. What I love about these Dresses is that they can be dressed up, dressed down or in between - like Viv and I have done here. In case you are wondering the location of these photos is in some areas down-town Saint Joseph Michigan: the Carousel which Vivian loved and we took her in every night, the gorgeous water fountain, down-town Main Street by some of the shops and restaurants (where the beautiful Art Frogs and Bees were located, which Vivian loved kissing on the lips and sitting on) and some beautiful sculptures.
I got this dress right before our vacation at Target.com. It is from their Merona brand, in a thicker gauze-blend material. I love the tulip wrap style which also falls down the front creating the hi-lo length of the dress. The little tie around one of the shoulders is a nice little touch. I love the vivacious, bright orange color very much. It is like a cross between coral, red and orange and it is perfectly-bright for Summer. I only brought three pairs of sandals with me on Vacation. I was going to wear this Dress with my Blue Suede Two-Strap Slide Sandals (from this post) but my sweet Viv picked up these Red Wedges for me to wear cause she said they matched my Red Dress. When you have an adorable toddler choosing your clothes for you, you don't say no. I added my Gold Disc Earrings and put my hair in a low French bun for both comfort and style and voila! Miss Vivi is wearing her New Gorgeous Pink Floral+Stripes Dress from Gymboree with a Beautiful Bow Back, paired with her Favorite Summer Sandals and Favorite Bow at the moment (the Hot Pink Cupcake Bow). Doesn't she look adorable? I am so lucky God has blessed me and my family with such a beautiful princess. =)
Hi-Lo Bright Orange-Red, Tulip Maxi Dress: Merona via Target.com (New) (similar, Steal, love this), (similar patterned option, Fantastic Deal), (similar midi option, Great Deal), (similar, splurge).
Gold-Tone Textured Disc Earrings: Wal Mart (New) (similar, Steal, love these), (similar, Great Deal), (very similar, Splurge).
Red Rubber Wedge Flip-Flops w/ Silver Stones & Beaded Silver Logo: Bebe (patriotic option, Steal, love these), (navy nautical option, Fantastic Deal, my Favorite).
Vivian's Outfit:
White+Pink Floral & Stripes Sundress w/ Back Bow detail: Gymboree (New).
Hot Pink w/ Cupcakes Grossgrain Ribbon Bow Barrette: Wal Mart (New).
Hot Pink Rubber Sling-Back Flip Flop Sandals w/ Hot Pink Chiffon Rose: Target (New).
Last week there were 100 fabulous ladies who linked up. I was attracted to Pretty Dresses, Rainbow Tassels, Crisp White and Burgundy with Navy Floral Prints - which would be perfect for the upcoming Fall season. As always, it was so hard narrowing down to my five favorites but I managed lol.
Today's Featured Blogger is ELISE from Sparkle and Slippers (don't you just love the name of her blog?!) who linked up not one but two pretty looks last week, but this White Summer Fiesta Outfit is definitely my favorite. A beautiful LWD with a Rainbow of Tassels and Pom Poms, I am 100% in. She paired it with Simple Nude Heeled Sandals, a Gold-Dipped Straw Clutch I have been admiring at H&M and Teal Tassel Earrings also from H&M (which I also own in an Eggplant Purple). Elise is one stunning mom for sure. Check out her blog for more daily style inspiration, sexy but chic mom looks and in case you are wondering how to style a jumpsuit or romper, since Elise has plenty of those and wears them flawlessly.
Rachael's 'Navy and Red Lace Dress' has the perfect texture, style, length, sleeves and beautiful two-tonal lace. The textured laced-up stilettos are perfect with it.
Nora's Ivory Eyelet Jacket is paired elegantly with a gorgeous taupe wrap skirt, classic camel bag and fun jewelry from her own collection.
It takes guts to wear an almost identical floral dress and blazer but Nicole gives life (by dyeing it) to her 'Old Wardrobe Favorites' in this fresh floral look, where even her pumps match.
Mary wears 'A Beautiful Blue' with a beautiful clutch and beautiful lace off-shoulder top. Those fluid trousers have one name for them: gorgeous.
F.Y.I. In case you missed it, the very stylish Lee guest posted for me yesterday. Don't miss out on the awesome watch giveaway we both have going on, in our blogs.
P.S. Linking up with Adri + Jessica, Alice, Ana Luiza with Michelle (this week's theme is "Summer Sandal Styles"), Annie, Brooke with Erica, Carrie with Jill, Christie, Claire, Dawn, Grace, Elle with Jacqueline, Heather, Jalynn, Jaymie, Jennie, Joules, Jolynne, Karli, Kelly, Lauren, Linda, Liz, Melissa with Sheree + Rachel, Michelle, Nancy, Nicole, Osy, Rachel, Rosie, Sheela, Tara, Tara (Socialite), Vicki, Whitney Nic and The Wardrobe Stylist.
Lastly, linking with the ladies of "The Blended Blog".
Now join the linkup and make some new friends!

Thinking Outside the Box on Human-Wildlife Conflict
When farmland in Africa expanded into the wilds to feed growing human populations, crops were trampled by elephants and farm animals fell prey to lions and cheetahs. As you will find in this Deutsche Welle article, little human ingenuity enlisted bees and dogs to negotiate peace.
Elephants instinctively steer clear of African honeybees and avoid unpredictable landscape features. In Kenya, fences made of swaying beehives suspended at irregular heights is a practical, affordable, and effective way to keep elephants from crossing the line separating fields from forests. Farmers are also able to launch a cottage industry in honey and beeswax candles. Their crops, meanwhile, thrive with the extra attention of the resident pollinators. In Namibia, big cats are repelled from farms and villages by Anatolian Shepherd dogs. Working with locals and leveraging animals' natural urges can improve biodiversity and food production. Restoring harmony in this case is a matter not of vanquishing adversaries, but simply understanding them. Click here for the original Deutsche Welle article.
Guiding Questions
- What pests or wildlife nuisances are in your area? (Cities have them too.)
- How can using their natural aversions or predilections help humans and wildlife live amicably?

Your kindness and medical expertise in caring for Cinnamon during his hospitalization has paid off. He is thriving and back to sleeping in my big clay pot of marigolds enjoying the summer breeze during the day. To his chagrin, he is having to stay in the house at night but allowed to hunt outside in the morning. Thank you so much for the excellent care you give not only to Cinnamon but to all animals and for the convenience of 24 hr. availability for those of us who find need of this service. God bless you.

When we came in today to pick up medications for our cat, we were thrilled to see that the emergency that had been treated the day before was being walked by a technician in the yard and he looked fantastic!
You guys don't even realize how much we think of you! You are the very best at what you do.

I brought my 2 yr 3 mos old cat, Tigger to DeLand Animal Hospital after my regular vet's office had missed that he had pneumonia after several visits to their office over several days. Sunday evening after my vet's office closed & I felt I couldn't wait until Monday morning to take him once again to see his vet. I took him to DeLand Animal Hospital where they took x-rays of his lungs from 3 different angles & drew blood. I stuck around for the results of the blood test & was told his condition; they recommended that they keep him overnight for care & observation. He was placed in an oxygen cage, given nutrients & medication through an IV. He was in critical condition & I now feel that had I waited for Monday morning he would have died.
He was given the best care at DeLand Animal Hospital. He is now home & I give him 1 medication 2X's daily every 12 hrs & another once in a 24 hr period. He's still recovering & has a follow up appointment with Dr MacPhail tomorrow.
DeLand Animal Hospital is about a half an hour closer to my home & this is better for both my cat's that are now under the care of the veterinarians at DeLand Animal Hospital. I like all the technicians that I have met & other staff members that man the front office area. Thank goodness that they have 24 hour services!

Always provide compassionate care whether boarded or seen by one of the vetinarians. If boarded they bathe and clip nails for our dog. Our dog wags his tail when he sees the staff there and is treated like one of their own animals.

I am very thankful to have chosen Deland Animal Hospital for not only boarding my baby but also during her first experience of boarding she underwent two surgeries, being spayed and front declaw removal. From day one the staff was really nice, personable, and understanding to the nervous mother that I am. It really calmed my nerves knowing she was going to be in good hands. During her stay I received a photo update after she came out of surgery and on periodically during the week as an update to let me know she is doing well. More over the staff went above and beyond what was required of them; Laurie in particular took the time to get to know my sweet angle and made a card board box to give her a dark quiet place to cuddle. And even at home Sophia sleeps in the house that was made for her during her stay at Deland Animal Hospital. I am beyond pleased with the services they provide and the staff truly does love what they do.

I am very pleased with the services provided by your hospital. You probably remember when I came in with my old dog Bart, He had been slowing down and his xrays appeared normal. But Dr Ulbrich just seemed to know that something else was going on and when she did the ultrsaound we found a small tumor on his spleen. We deciede to have the operation and it turned out that the tumor was cancer but the surgery was a cure!
Bart is now home and cancer free. What we wanted to let you know is that we were amzed how all of you at the hospital – the technicians and the doctors – just knew how scared we were. All of you held our hands through this scary time and not only did Bart make it through but so did we. Your kindness and skill is amazing and my wife and I will always remember you. Thank you to all. PS. We hope you enjoyed the cookie platter! 🙂

The vets and staff at DeLand Animal Hospital treated our kitty like one of their own and were very knowledgable and expediant in diagnosing and treating his illness. They also worked with us as to costs – keeping it somewhat affordable so we were not stressed over finances but were able to focus on getting our kitty better and back home. We have utilized DeLand Animal Hospital on several occasions in the past for various ailments affecting our furry family members and have been more than pleased with the services rendered, the only exception being when we had to put down one of our beloved pets.

Todd Hartley: I'm With Stupid
The Aspen Times
Aspen, CO, Colorado
The big news in entertainment circles this week, of course, was Disney's purchase of Lucasfilm for $4.05 billion and the announcement that the "Star Wars" movies would be renewed for another trilogy starting in 2015. What has been overlooked in all the hoopla, however, is the question of how, exactly, Disney will breathe life back into a franchise that, while commercially successful, has sucked for the three or four most recent films.
When we last left Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo and company, at the end of "Return of the Jedi," Luke knew Leia was his sister, Han no longer owned the Millennium Falcon, the Death Star had been blown to smithereens for a second time, stormtrooper helmets were being used as an Ewok xylophone, and Jabba the Hutt, the Emperor, Darth Vader and pretty much every other evil person in the galaxy were all dead, massacred by the forces of good.
So where does the story go from there?
I'm sure there's an actual answer to that question, since George Lucas supposedly wrote nine "Star Wars" tales, but having shown just how far awry he could go in the three most recent films, I'm not sure Disney entirely trusts Lucas' vision. I'm guessing that Disney is going to turn things over to Pixar's story people and let them tinker with the plot a little.
First off, they need to decide which characters people are most interested in at this point in the story and base the action around them. I think it's safe to say that no one particularly cares what happens to Luke or Leia anymore. Luke should head off to the desert of Tatooine and be a hermit like his mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Leia and Han should get married and go rule a planet somewhere, and C-3PO should be melted down for scrap metal just to shut him up. R2-D2 can live on.
By process of elimination, that leaves us with the only two characters who were still the least bit cool by the end of the movie: Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca. Lando, as you might recall, was back in the pilot's seat of the Millennium Falcon, which had originally been his, and Chewbacca was living it up on Endor, a giant among Ewoks.
The opening scene practically writes itself: Lando swings by Endor to pick up Chewie, and all the Ewoks go berserk because this is the first time they've seen the only black man in the galaxy. Lando and Chewie barely escape with their lives.
From there, the natural course would be to follow the duo's exploits as they warp-drive around the galaxy, and I think there's a lot of material to be mined there. Lando's a smooth cat and a Starfleet commander, and Chewbacca is 7-foot-3 and a favored son of the alliance, so I see them getting laid a lot. I know that's typically really Disney's style, but, as I said, this franchise needs something new.
For a bad guy in the next three movies, I think the writers will need to figure out a way to resurrect Jabba the Hutt – who was slain by Princess Leia in the gold bikini – if for no other reason than the chance to cast Honey Boo Boo's mother in the role. There's no way a resemblance that uncanny should go to waste. She was born to be Jabba, and she should get the opportunity.
Speaking of casting, I'm not sure Billy Dee Williams should continue as Lando. We all love Billy Dee, but no one has seen much of him since he was suavely telling us that Colt 45 malt liquor "works every time" back in the '80s. Disney needs to cast someone the kids are a little more familiar with, and it seems to me the obvious answer is Chris Rock. Lando is a very dignified role, and nothing says gravitas like Rock.
Chewbacca should be embodied by NBA center Hasheem Thabeet, who stands 7-foot-3. This will save Disney money because the Chewbacca costume won't have to be altered. Plus, it will give Thabeet a career when he washes out of the NBA in a year or two. The voice of Chewbacca should be supplied by a girl my old roommate used to date.
Anyway, back to the plot. Lando and Chewie are sleeping their way around the galaxy when Jabba somehow captures them. Jabba is just about to kill them when Buzz Lightyear flies in and saves the day.
Does that work for everybody? Perfect. Start making it.
Start a dialogue, stay on topic and be civil.

City Council's Retreat: Setting the Agenda for 2012-2013
The Golden City Council held its biannual retreat earlier in February, focusing on their work plan for the next two years. They identified nine general areas they want to focus on: (1) supporting Golden's schools and libraries; (2) improving public space; (3) promoting a healthy community; (4) moving the ball forward on key transportation issues; (5) strengthening Golden's neighborhoods; (6) fostering a strong relationship with Colorado School of Mines; (7) supporting a strong economy; (8) improving on the city's capital improvement plan; and (9) meeting the city's sustainability goals. It's a great list but also a pretty expansive one, and I'm looking forward to learning more about how Council is planning to prioritize among those goals.
Jeffco Library Community Survey Results
The Jefferson County Library has some challenges ahead: the Jefferson County Commissioners don't typically fund the library at the full amount permitted under the library's mill levy (which is controlled by the county), and it looks like they are going to take a bigger hit in 2011. As part of an effort to figure out how best to manage their budget restrictions, the Jeffco Library prepared a "State of the Library" update and they recently conducted a community survey.
The key conclusion of the survey: "A majority of Jefferson County residents who replied to the Library's recent mail-in community survey feel that JCPL is doing an excellent or good job of meeting the needs of Jefferson County communities. Additionally, a majority of respondents strongly agreed that funding the Library is a good use of tax money and would rather see an increase in taxes to support libraries than see reductions in Library services." Also, "[s]atisfaction with Library services and Library usage both ranked quite high among those completing the survey."
Some of the other results:
- Nearly 90 percent felt that JCPL does an excellent or good job in meeting the needs of local communities.
- Over 80 percent said they currently have a Jefferson County Public Library card.
- More than 80 percent also reported they had visited a Jefferson County Public Library location at least once in the previous 12 months.
- Almost 85 percent strongly agreed that funding the library is a good use of tax money, and 97 percent of respondents at least somewhat agreed.
- Over half of survey respondents strongly agreed that they would rather see an increase in taxes to support libraries rather than see reductions in library services, and 84 percent at least somewhat agreed.
- Expansion of Library programs and services garnered robust support.
- When asked to what extent they would support or oppose expansion of a variety of Library programs and services, two-thirds or more of respondents supported each of the options listed.
- The most popular options for expansion, strongly supported by more than 40 percent of respondents and supported by over 90 percent, included:
- resources for self-directed learning,
- popular titles/current topics,
- technology access and training,
- early literacy/reading skills, and
- support for educational achievement.
- Those completing the survey were also in favor of technology improvements at the Library. The most popular options were more wireless Internet access, more online databases/resources, more computers/computer stations, more places to plug in laptop computers, and more computer classes/training.
- The survey asked respondents what types of program or service reductions they would support if JCPL needed to cut services to meet lowered budgets. Of six options presented, the one with the most support was to reduce library hours of operation, supported by nearly two-thirds of respondents.
- Two options were supported by about as many respondents as opposed them; these were reducing or eliminating outreach programs to special populations and reducing or eliminating classes and programs.
- A third or less of respondents supported the idea of reducing or eliminating technology access and training, or reducing the collections, while two-thirds of respondents or more opposed these options.
- The option with the least support was to permanently close one or more libraries; this alternative was supported by only 14 percent of respondents and opposed by 86 percent.
According to the Jeffco Library, the mail-in survey was sent to more than 3,800 randomly selected households in Jefferson County. They had 924 responses (24%) with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percent. You can download the entire report if you want to read more.

Chit Chat
If I didn't get into films, I'd drive a taxi: Big B
A life well lived. Presenting Amitabh Bachchan at 70
Happy Birthday, Amitji. It's your 70th birthday and obviously a landmark year…
I have always wondered why these years are made a landmark. And, who makes them a landmark? It is just another year in someone's life. Why is 70 special; why not 71, 72 or 69, for that matter? Of course, I know that for some reason these ages 50, 60, 70, 75, 80 are given designations. Never mind the fuss, today I'm 70.
Looking back, would you remember how you were when you were, say, 10 years?
A few instances, perhaps. It is strange but certain things remain in your mind more prominently when you grow older. I would have to think what I did yesterday. But I could relate an incident that happened in school in a jiffy. I think, most aspects of my life are already known. Everyone knows I was born in Allahabad; I went to the Jnana Prabodhini and Boys High School there, and Sherwood College in Nainital, and later to Kirori Mal College, New Delhi. I was attracted to the stage even when I was young and I used to land up on it on many occasions. I have played the part of a chicken in kindergarten. Every year when there was the school play, I used to be interested in that. Even when I was at home, our group of friends would put up an impromptu stage, put a curtain and put up a play. Apart from that, I had no intentions of being where I am today.
I thought the Filmfare-Madhuri talent contest was the very fair and proper way of getting into the film industry. I was unaware of the Film & Television Institute of India (FTII) and of the fact that if you passed out from there, you would get at least a formal audition in the film industry. But because I was not aware of the FTII, I always wondered how one got into films. Not that I had any intention of getting into the movies, but I used to generally wonder how this happened. When I saw the Filmfare-Madhuri print ad, I felt this was the proper way to get into the film industry. It would get me a chance to audition for a screen test; put me on a salary. Of course, I got rejected. And then, I just made up my mind that I had to be in the movies. So I landed up in Mumbai with my driving licence. I hoped that if I didn't get into films, then I would drive a taxi.
Does rejection always do that to you?
No, it doesn't. I don't know how to put this. Just because one has got rejected in a particular direction; it doesn't fill me up with the attitude of — 'I will show them'. It is none of that. Yet, if during the process of work, there is an obstacle that comes in the way, I would like to fight that obstacle. And sometimes, great brilliance comes out of that. And as I talk, I am reminded of an incident that may perhaps be able to explain to you, what I am trying to say.
Please continue…
I was shooting for Main Azaad Hoon (1989) in Pune. It was the time when we were being accused of Bofors (1987). And the whole nation was under the belief that we were traitors. Those were difficult times. We could not step out of the house because we would get abused. I used to get abused in the middle of the street. If we were shooting on the roads, the public would normally stop so as not to disrupt the shooting. However, if I was there, people would shout abusive slogans.
You also had a run-in with a students union during Main Azaad Hoon. Right?
I remember shooting a sequence in the theatre for Azaad. It is the scene where the protagonist is introduced. And he has to give a long speech. Anyway, we needed to fill up the hall with a crowd. So the producer gave an ad in the paper asking people to come to the theatre. The hall was full of Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) union wing members who'd come with a rebellious attitude. They charged on to the stage and shouted rebellious slogans. We had no police around because we were not aware that this would happen. I just stood there and allowed them to do what they were doing and then the police came and they were sent out.
The atmosphere was tense. My shot of the speech was to be done in 10 takes because it was a very large piece. I told the director (Tinu Anand) and Habib Nadiadwala, the producer and Javed Akhtar saab, who was the writer that let's get on with it.
And I did that whole speech in one take purely as a sort of defiance to what I had just been through. That is the kind of thing that I would probably do. I would not take revenge on someone or something. In public life you have to bear with these kinds of things. So I don't say — 'I'm going to show you'. I will just do my work. But if there has been an obstacle, I would want to overcome it by trying to do better than what I did earlier on.
You went into semi-hibernation at one point (around 1992)…
Yes, I took this sabbatical. Looking back, I feel it is something I should perhaps not have done. At that point, there were certain circumstances which led me to believe that it was okay for me to do something like that. So I went ahead and did it. Basically, we were trying to corporatise entertainment. We had various meetings in the US and we came back and started out. We got into trouble with ABCL because we were not able to manage that properly. A lot of documentation that went into this was personally signed by me; later this went against me. Suddenly, there were a hundred court cases against me for recovery of dues. I did not know where the money was going to come from. So I thought I would start all over again. Early one morning, I sat up and asked myself — what am I? I'm an actor and I should act. So I walked across to Yash Chopra's house and told him that I need a job and he gave me Mohabbatein (2000). And then things started to move. These are phases of life that I do remember.
Your decision to do Kaun Banega Crorepati in its first season (2000) also proved to be a landmark of sorts. Till then no icon had made his presence on the small screen…
It didn't seem so at that point. And I do not subscribe to the icon epithet. But yes, mainstream actors had not really ventured into television. Here we are into the sixth season (two seasons were done by Shah Rukh Khan), and this is my fourth season. Yes, it has been wonderful to be associated with this show and to see the longevity of it.
June 3, 1973 is also a date deeply etched in your memory…
Yes, it is the day I married Jaya. Actually we were planning to marry by the end of 1973. We had finished Zanjeer. Jaya had two other movies that she wanted to complete before she married me. However, around that time a small group of friends had said that if Zanjeer did well, we'd all go for a holiday to London. I had never been out of the country before this so I was excited. When we came to know of the success of the film, we started making preparations. And I told my father, this is what we had planned. He turned around and said — 'Are you going out alone with this girl for a holiday? Well, you should marry her before going overseas.' And so, we quickly got married.
Which are the other dates that are special to you?
The birth of my children Shweta and Abhishek and my three grandchildren is very special. I always remember the dates when Shweta and Abhishek married. These are very personal, joyous occasions for all of us in the family.
Is it true that you are very attached to Prateeksha, your first home in Mumbai?
Yes, Prateeksha is the very first house we have had in the entire generation. Before that no one had really bought a house. My father in his autobiography wrote that one generation of his family builds structures; the other generation enjoys the benefits of it. I think it has been proven so far. For some reason, that's how it happened. Prateeksha has always been there and all our happy moments have been spent there. Both the weddings, Shweta to Nikhil Nanda and Abhishek to Aishwarya Rai, were conducted from there. So it has a lot of relevance in our lives. I go there every day, and sometimes spend days on end there.
Actually, I love Mumbai. The city has given me my wife, children, and grandchildren. It has given me a name. Amazing how it all came from this one city. I'm grateful to God and to the audience that has shown an immense amount of affection not only towards my films, but also to other aspects of my life. They were with me during my Coolie accident (1982); they are with me and my family always.
Speaking of your name, Amitabh means everlasting light. Have you in your 70 years had time to reflect on it?
Amitabh is a very prominent Bengali name. It was given to me by the great poet Sumitranandan Pant, who happened to be in our home at Allahabad the day I was born. He was my godfather. One doesn't necessarily want to believe in these meanings and look at it as the way you want me to look at it. But I am very grateful and very happy with whatever I may have achieved. Forty-three years in the film industry. And there have been some truly wonderful moments spent with people from various walks of life.
What's the future work line-up?
Yes, there is Prakash Jha's Satyagraha; another season of KBC. I've just confirmed Mehrunnisa with Sudhir Mishra. R Balki and Sujoy Ghosh are writing their films. There are also several other projects in the pipeline that I need to select from.

I was fooling around with citrus ice cubes made from lemonade and chopped up lemons, oranges and green lemons the other day. After spending the night in the freezer, I put several ice cube in my insulated tea glass and doused them all with some sparkling water. It certainly looked attractive.
But the curious thing was that the ice cubes seemed to take much longer to dissolve and melt, so while the drink was really cold, the ice cubes kept their shape, the chopped citrus was suspended throughout the drink, and the water was slowly flavored with the cold lemonade and citrus pieces. Nice.
Definitely something I would do for a summer party or even just to jazz up a glass of iced tea or lemonade. You could go further and freeze other things into your ice cubes like herbs, fruit, etc.
Will try this..thanks for sharing, MM!

wow, gagayahin ko to.
Nov 12, 2014 | 8:33 am
Looks like heaven in a glass on a hot day! Frozen calamansi make great ice cubes too….and just the right size.
Nov 12, 2014 | 8:36 am
looks so refreshing!
Nov 12, 2014 | 9:09 am
I love flavored water and seltzer. Great idea!
Nov 13, 2014 | 2:10 am
Could the double glass have slowed the melting? I see it would prevent the warmth of your hand or the room from getting onto the drink – except from the top.
Nice glass by the way.
Nov 13, 2014 | 7:39 am
"I will copy this!" …I said that out loud and hubby smiled and looked at me and said "the turkey looks yummy" and I looked at him and said " am copying the ice" :-)
Nov 13, 2014 | 11:58 am
same way freezing an olive oil with chopped herbs in an ice tray…use the ice cube when you saute veggies….makes the olive oil more flavorful :)
Nov 13, 2014 | 4:13 pm
MM, thanks for the tip about edible flowers…will try it very soon !!!
Nov 14, 2014 | 1:15 am
Perfect for the Melbourne summer coming up!

Can't get enough ideas from your site. Thank you very much for sharing.

Walgreens unveils an updated version of its mobile app that adds support for telehealth visits in 25 states, a significant increase over the five states it brought live with telehealth this summer. The news was expected, as Walgreens had previously announced that its strategic goal was to roll telehealth services out to at least 25 states by the end of 2015. In December 2014, telehealth vendor MDLive was contracted to support the initiative, and since then Walgreens has been slowly adding new states to its telehealth footprint. At launch, the Walgreens app offered telehealth visits to users in California and Michigan, then in June the services were extended to users living in Colorado, Illinois, and Washington. Now, telehealth visits will be available in Alabama, Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Wisconsin. Walgreens did not discuss its timeline for expanding these services to the remainder of the country.
The way Walgreens delivers telehealth sessions is also changing. Prior to its latest app update, users were required to have both the Walgreens app and the MDLive app on their devices to use the telehealth services. Now, the entire virtual visit experience is facilitated through the Walgreens app alone, doing away with the need to use MDLive.

Real Name: Kivun Roxxas
Super-Power(s): Frenzied state makes him impervious to pain
Planet of Origin: Murgador
Planet of Origin: Murgador
Relationship to Legion: Villain
Legion Log
Roxxas grew up on Murgador an intelligent but surly young man who left his native planet to join the armed forces. Unfit for the military life, he eventually murdered his commanding officer during a raid of the base's compu-vault. Roxxas then lived as a fugitive for several years until he joined up with a group of roaming space pirates. Due to his ego and his military experience, he eventually became their leader.
When rumors of a planet full of alchemists reached their ears, Roxxas and his band headed to Trom. Their plan was to hold the majority of transmuters hostage in exchange for the cooperation of a few. However, faced with the Tromians' unswerving refusal to cooperate with them, Roxxas and his men began to kill them, eventually savagely murdering almost all of them, earning the nickname "The Butcher". The one lone escapee was the young man who would eventually become the Legionnaire Element Lad. Roxxas, furious that he and his men had lost control, went after Element Lad in order to take advantage of his transmuting power. When they eventually met again, Element Lad attempted to commit suicide rather than help Roxxas. However, the Legion saved him and captured Roxxas.
Roxxas was imprisoned for several years at Takron-Galtos. When he managed to escape, he hid out on Trom. Although no one thought to look for him there, he began to believe that he was haunted by the ghosts of the Tromians he and his men had killed. Roxxas slowly grew insane. Eventually Element Lad and the Legion tracked him down,. When confronted, Roxxas begged Element Lad to kill him. Although tempted, Element Lad decided that letting Roxxas live was the best revenge. Roxxas then began undergoing intensive psycho-therapy.
After the so-called Five-Year Gap, Roxxas is sprung from prison by Dominator-controlled EarthGov, given advanced weaponry, and assigned with preventing the reformation of the Legion of Super-Heroes, preferably by killing them. He murdered Blok to lure the remaining Legionnaires to the memorial asteroid of Shanghalla which he would take out with a bomb. They instead gathered on Winath, so he attacked them there, critically wounding Chameleon Boy and injuring several others before being forced to flee. He was eventually tracked down by a team led by Element Lad and returned to prison. He then provided key evidence that EarthGov was run by the Dominators. So ironically, his actions brought about the very thing he was hired to prevent. A disturbed Roxxas would later collude with Mordru in the hopes that raising the dead Trommites would wipe his sins away. The spell did not represent true life, alas, but Roxxas did manage to save Jan Arrah from the zombies' clutches, which was redemption of a sort.
After the Reboot, Roxxas is the Daxamite Ambassador to the United Planets and the leader of the White Triangle, a racist, xenophobic group bent on galactic domination. He pressured the Daxamite Legionnaire Andromeda (who was raised in a White Triangle enclave) to be his spy, but she eventually turned against him, but this could not prevent the White Triangle's genocide of the Trommite people, Element Lad once again the only survivor.
In Legionnaires #54, a version of Roxxas is introduced as part of an alternate universe created by the Time Trapper, and a homage to Golden Age comics. This Roxxas is a Nazi fighting the Legion in World War II, alongside an Italian Tangleweb and a Japanese Doctor Regulus. In keeping with the limited superpowers of the setting, he has the Golden Age Superman's original powers. His origin is not explained.
Roxxas is not heard from during the Threeboot.
After Infinite Crisis, Roxxas' original history has presumably been more or less restored, but he has not reappeared.

Important Roxxas Stories:

Making rows 'Sticky' or always visible in Libreoffice CalcApr 13th, 2012 | By admin | Category: Technology
Not sure how to do this in MS Office, but honestly who's using proprietary office suites anymore, that is sooo 1998. Well ok, so maybe everyone still is but I'm not and today I ran into the interesting question of how I create a header out of a row so that I could scroll down a sheet and that top row or group of rows would always stay visible.
Well it turns out that there are two ways of doing this. I'll start with the cleanest way and that's the Freeze!!
Yea, sounds cooler than it is, but it's quick, it's easy and it is the most efficient in terms of screen usage. So just click on a cell one row underneath the row that you want to always be visible and if you want the entire row then make sure to select the left most cell in that row below the one you want to freeze or sticky. After you've done so go to window and click freeze. Viola, you've got yourself a stick row
So this one isn't quite as clean but also works.. You see on the right hand of the window just above the up arrow/triangle on the scroll bar? You see that tiny little black space/line? Yea well put your mouse over it and get ready to have your fricken mind blown! Never knew about that before did ya? Well as you can see by the resize icon that appears when you mouse over that little empty void of blackness, it can be resized.. So drag it down to just undearneath where you want frozen and tada! It essentially splits the sheet up into two different windows and kind of does the same trick if you just draw it under one or two rows.
So that's it, problem solved, hope that helps you with your little dilemma and happy spreadsheeting!

Holidays can be a great time full of fun and endless festivity. But if you are not ready for all the rush, then it can be overwhelming and stressful. Decorating your home for the Holiday Season often starts early; even before Thanksgiving comes around. Even if you have not already started preparing for the joyful times ahead, now is a great time to get the ball rolling. Your Thanksgiving duties are done; the mad rush of Black Friday shopping and even Cyber Monday is all but over. And a DIY Holiday Garland is the perfect way to begin Holiday decoration before you move on to bigger
Holiday Garlands are arguably one of the easiest seasonal crafts you can try out and they pack quite a punch when it comes to visual splendor. A lovely garland does all this even while being affordable and barely taking up any of your time during this busy period. With some of these DIY holiday garland ideas, you can even get the kids involved; allowing you to pass on some of that work! So, without further ado, here is a look at the 20 best DIY holiday garlands around that are (largely) easy to craft.
Festive Charm of Christmas
Yup, there are plenty of directions which you can take while crafting the lovely holiday garland. But our absolute favorite is the one which incorporates as much Christmas charm as possible! At the end of the day, nothing beats DIY garlands filled with sparkling Christmas ornaments, gorgeous, multicolored baubles or even cool reindeer motifs. The Mini Christmas Stocking Garland is one of those delightful classic that is bound to attract everyone's attention and us still super-easy to create. Since you need to decorate the fireplace mantel with stockings, going down the garland route serves more purposes than one.
The Advent Stocking DIY Garland is something you can put up right away and definitely builds the crescendo as Christmas Eve comes closer while the versatile Christmas ornaments garland gives you more decorating freedom and sparkle. A felt Christmas tree garland feels far more artistic, elegant and still is vibrant and full of energy and the chic reindeer garland is something that kids will enjoy crafting as they get ready for the season's festivities.
Sparkle, Twinkle and Dazzle!
What is the Holiday season with plenty of sparkle and a dash of magic in the air! Yes, string lighting plays a big part when it comes to giving your home that great Christmassy makeover. But glittering DIY garlands can accentuate this glow and spread it throughout the room. The Festive DIY metallic garland crafted by our own Kate is a great way to start and also brings home some of the most sought-after seasonal trends. Next on the list of must-dos is the glitter ball DIY garland – a fabulous and attractive creating that fits in pretty much everywhere and does so with plenty of pizzazz.
A beautiful and chic sparkling snowflake garland is perfect for those who love silvery charm while those who love a white Christmas will also appreciate the illuminated snowflake garland idea. As we alluded to earlier, pairing your homemade holiday garland with string lighting or giving it a metallic, modern upgrade is the surest way to usher in festive gleam even as you keep it classy.
A Colorful Expression
From glitter, we move on to color and you have a wide range of choices here as well. We will not talk about the Christmas ornament garlands that we already showcased above. They undoubtedly add plenty of color to a contemporary setting. Here, we flip through a few other artistic, yet festive alternatives that will get your guests talking. No matter which other DIY garland you wish to try out this Holiday Season, we strongly suggest you do not miss out on the French Macaron DIY Garland. It is a visual treat that will turn heads with an air of whimsical panache.
For crafters more adept at handling crochet, the DIY Pom Poms and Bows Crochet Garland must be easy to recreate while the dashing party garland we discovered on Design Love Fest should easily outlive your Christmas and New Year festivities. Finally, for some of us out here who are might not be too keen on spending a whole lot of time on crafting a stunning holiday garland, there is the stylish and super-easy shimmering garland made out of leftover ribbon, craft paper and crepe paper.
Freshness and Green
The two most popular colors as Christmas starts to knock on our doors are red and green. Take this love for green and translate it into a gorgeous, natural garland that is both cost-effective and eco-friendly. Whether you love beautiful pine garlands put together in a more contemporary fashion or classic festive garlands with loads of green that can bring Holiday cheer to kitchen, bedroom or even the home office, make sure you add a touch of elegance and dazzle to it all with a couple of baubles here and there! At the end of the day, 'tis season to be jolly and a touch creative!
Small DIY touches around the home can bring the current season into your decor. Take a cue from the changing leaves and rich autumn hues when crafting your next project. Garlands are an easy way to spice up a space and incorporate elements of nature. Pine cones, leaves, and deep colors all work together to create gorgeous displays for your mantles and walls. Here are a few DIY garlands from around the web for inspiration.
Colorful Fall Inspirations
Elsie of A Beautiful Mess made this gorgeous fall garland to incorporate the colors of the turning leaves. Chunky golden yarn strung through each leaf gives this DIY a cozy touch, and multicolored felt makes it fun and quirky. For an easier time sewing, use embroidery floss instead of yarn.
Liz of Naptime Decorator created a nature-inspired garland that perfectly captures the beauty of fallen leaves. For easy assembly and a long-lasting display, use artificial foliage instead of the real deal- you won't have to worry about your leaves wilting and crumbling away.
Thuy of The Flair Exchange incorporated typography in her fall decor when creating a garland. The copper tone of the letters are right at home with nature's autumn color scheme. For a more festive DIY, alternate colors and feature a combination of orange, red, and yellow.
To create her one-of-a-kind garland, Cristina of Remodelando la Casa used the ultimate DIY technique: upcycling. A well-loved wreath received a second life in the form of a wooden leave garland. When upcycling old decor, little touches like a new coat of paint will have your project looking like new.
Bring the allure of fall's colors with a floral garland fit for an autumn harvest. Afke of Afke's Happy House transforms physalis blossoms into mini pumpkin-hued lanterns. String along a length of yarn, and you'll have a great accent to dress up your home.
Rosa of Adore Prep decided to showcase personal memories when decorating her home for autumn. Glittery mini frames encase Instagramed moments of her life, while leaves punched out from fall-themed cardstock add an extra dose of color. Bring this garland into the winter by swapping out the gold and leaves for blue and snowflakes.
Instead of using leaves for a fall garland, Kristen of Ella Claire Inspired used pine cones for her decor DIY. Burlap and ribbon ties complete this sweet and charming project. For a rustic touch, use jute to hang and fray the edges of your ribbon and burlap.
Rae of Armommy took a multimedia approach when crafting her festive fall garland. Felt balls strung along two-tone twine are simple to execute, and large letters made from recycled books add a charming flair. Layer your garland in levels to maximize wall space and make a big visual impact.
Garlands are so simple to make, you could whip one up today! Whether you need a pop of color in a room or want to bring autumn into your home decor, this DIY is a must-have for the fall. Have you ever created a garland? Tell us about your project in a comment below.

Home > Services > Women's Health > Women's Services > Fertility > Fertility Testing
Testing is key to addressing fertility issues. Usually the first question regarding female fertility is whether you are ovulating or not. The next step in fertility testing is tracking your ovulation through fertility awareness or a fertility monitor.
The first test performed by your fertility specialists involves measuring your follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) to establish a baseline. This is performed on the third day of your cycle. This test is performed during your first visit.
Your second visit will occur on the day of the LH surge, which is before ovulation in most cases. During your first cycle, it is common for your fertility specialists to perform several tests.
This involves a postcoital test (PCT) which determines if the sperm is able to penetrate and survive in the cervical mucus. It also involves a bacterial screening.
This is used to assess the thickness of the lining of the uterus (endometrium), monitor follicle development, and check the condition of the uterus and ovaries. An ultrasound may be conducted two to three days later to confirm that an egg has been released.
These tests are done to assess the various hormone levels that contribute to the reproductive process. These hormone tests include the following:
If both the semem analysis and the above testing return normal results, your fertility specialists may recommend other tests.
This is simply an x-ray of your uterus and fallopian tubes. A blue dye is injected through the cervix into the uterus and fallopian tubes. The dye enables the radiologist to see if there is blockage or any other problem.
This is a procedure that may be used if the HSG indicates that there may be problems. The hysteroscope is inserted through the cervix into the uterus, which allows your fertility specialist to see any abnormalities, growths or scarring in the uterus. The hysteroscope allows your physician to take pictures which may be used for future reference.
This procedure uses a narrow fiber optic telescope. The laparoscope is inserted through a woman's abdomen to look at the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries. Your physician will be checking for endometriosis, scar tissue or other adhesions. It is important to confirm that you are not pregnant before this test is performed.
This procedure involves scraping a small amount of tissue from the endometrium just prior to menstruation. This biopsy is performed to assess whether there is a hormonal imbalance or not. It is important to confirm that you are not pregnant before this test is performed.
