Buenos Aires - Argentine President Cristina Fernandez never had cancer despite having been diagnosed with the disease last month and having her thyroid gland removed on Jan 4, her spokesman said on Saturday.
The government announced just after Christmas that the recently re-elected leader had thyroid cancer.
The operation to remove the gland went well, however when the gland was analysed it turned out to have never contained cancerous cells, said spokesperson Alfredo Scoccimaro.
"The original diagnosis has been modified," he told a news conference. "The presence of cancer cells was discarded."
The president is expected to return to work late this month.
Several hundred Fernandez supporters had been camped out near the hospital where she was treated, carrying banners that said, "Strength Cristina".
The president, who won re-election with 54% of the vote in October, is popular among Argentines who agree with her generous welfare spending.
Business leaders and farmers in the country's key grains sector however say her state-centric interventions in the economy scare away investment.
So, Chavez. did the USA turn off the cancer gun it was using on South American leaders, or are you ready to admit you are an idiot?

I was more than ready to talk about the Lord's toothless crooners, otherwise known as Miss Kitty and The Holy Angels. However, after reading more about them I'm afraid I can't. Well, not completely anyway. Trifling or not, I'm a teensy bit sad over it all the same.
From the YouTube page of this future online video classic:
Before you make fun of this video please consider that Miss Kitty and the Holy Angels are part of a Homeless Ministry Mission at Friendship World Outreach. They, themselves, are homeless. They are on the same spiritual journey as many of us. Perhaps, singing isn't their "gift", but I have a feeling that God is enjoying every minute. Instead of putting them down, we should be lifting them up. We don't all start at the same place in our walk.
Damn. Not only did Jesus take the wheel, he bust a U-Turn on my ass and sped off. I will say that anytime you have to start off with "before you make fun of this video," you know good and well that you're asking for it. I'll refrain, though. It is Good Friday, after all.
I guess I can focus on the positive or something. Uh, how about we start off with their uniforms? So they're like coordinated and shit; gold star for them. Yes, I heard John Witherspoon's voice in my head while typing the word "coordinated." I've got to entertain myself somehow.
Moving on, shout out to the two Holy Angels who led the Soul Train line to heaven. The man in red had a mean (and holy) bop while Miss Kitty (presumably) had a very nice two-step going for God. Oh, and her drop for Jesus: Praise the Lord and the mercy granted to thy limbs. For if not for the most high you most certainly would've stayed low on the ground.
Look at God, Miss Kitty. Look at God.
Speaking of Miss Kitty, here's what one person posted on the message board I found this video on said about her:
She's an ordained minister, but they won't let her preach. My friend said they let her do it once, and it was awful. She started talking about Job, and then segued into Moses parting the Red Sea. She said, Miss Kitty was up there for 20 minutes telling them there were dolphins in the sea, turtles, sharks, eels. Everybody was just sitting there clapping and saying amen Miss Kitty. And, then she said, "Yall know what else was in that sea Moses parted." She waited until everyone said,"What Miss Kitty?" She leaned in on the mic and replied," Niggers was in that sea." They haven't let her preach since.
"Niggers was in that sea," folks. I don't know about y'all, but I wouldn't mind getting a copy of one of Miss Kitty's sermons. She sounds mighty entertaining as an orator if you ask me. I believe those church folks who feel otherwise are what Beyoncé and us Beyhive members now refer to as "wasps."
That said, I'm going to cut myself off now as I feel as though I'm circling a wee bit too close to the first few sections of hell. To those of you who are still Christians, enjoy your Good Friday fish dinner and have a Happy Easter.
And remember: Niggers was in that sea.

By Father John Rayls
Have you ever read an advertisement about a whiskey or a cigar and wondered if the marketers had ever even bothered to try the product they were pushing? Sometimes the claimed flavors and aromas are the stuff of pure Hollywood fiction, with no connection to reality.
Knowing how this can be the case, I tend to view some pairing suggestions in the same light. They can come across as trying to create a connection and an experience that's an obvious stretch. I'm always interested in how consumables might fit together and why, but I want the connection made with well-grounded simplicity. Charlie Daniels spelled it out in one of his songs several years ago…"I ain't nothin' but a simple man".
My attitude is that a good whiskey and cigar pairing needs to begin with a good smoke, build on it with an enjoyable whiskey, and find a balance between the two. I don't want either one over-powering the other or competing for my constant attention. In an ideal situation, they should work together as one bringing out the best in each other. If it's a mild cigar, I prefer a subtle whiskey. If the whiskey announces its presence with authority, I prefer a bold cigar.
The Ashton Variety 5-Pack I acquired through Holt's Cigar Company provides a range of cigars and displays how that simple balance can work in practice. Ashton is a well known Dominican Republic cigar manufacturer with a reputation for quality construction and a moderate price structure. This variety pack included one each of:
- Ashton 8-9-8
- Ashton Aged Maduro No. 40
- Ashton Heritage Churchill Puro Sol
- Ashton Cabinet Pyramid, and
- Ashton VSG (Virgin Sun Grown).
I paired these with a range of whiskeys, including bourbon, rye, Irish whiskey and single malt Scotch.
Ashton 8-9-8 paired with Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey
The 8-9-8 is a Lonsdale, 6.5″, 44 ring gauge cigar. It's power profile is very mild with a flavor profile that is lightly smokey, woody with a somewhat creamy feel. At times, a slightly sweet undertone will creep in, but never as a major influence. The first third burns quickly and unevenly, but evens out and becomes consistent in burn and flavor at the start of the second third. This is a smooth smoke with an easy draw.
Matching this with an Irish Whiskey (92 proof) allows this mild cigar to hold its own. Teeling has a slightly sweet flavor profile that balances well against the 8-9-8. According to our own review: "The flavor is syrupy and mellow, and hints at dark, spiced rum. This is sweet whiskey, but a little woodiness and pepper in the taste keeps it from becoming too sweet. The finish flows out of the peppery note and into a nice, warm glow." As a subtle whiskey, it is fully complimentary to this mild cigar.
Ashton Aged Maduro No. 40 with The Glenlivet Nadurra Scotch Whisky
The Aged Maduro is a medium bodied, Corona Gorda measuring 6″ with a 50 ring gauge. It is a beautiful dark colored cigar with an easy, slightly tight draw and a slightly spicy profile. It has an oily veiny wrapper that has a hard feel, but it doesn't smoke that way. There are hints of vanilla and even marshmallow when initially lit. It also burns unevenly in the first third, but evens out at the 40% mark.
The cigar has a slight peppery feel on the front of the tongue which matches well with The Glenlivet. The Nadurra single malt has a creamy mouth-feel which softens the overall experience and balances well against the maduro. There is a slightly salty flavor matched with a slightly sweet one that is very inviting. There are multiple Nadurras available, but all start from a similar beginning and would serve a pairing just as well.
Ashton Heritage Churchill Puro Sol with Rock Hill Farms Bourbon
The Heritage is a Churchill measuring 6.75″ with a 44 ring gauge. It is a smooth medium bodied smoke with a slightly sweet note and bread undertones. It's a nice creamy cigar that is enjoyable from start to finish with a nutty earthiness.
Rock Hill Farms is a Buffalo Trace bourbon, made from the same mash bill as is used for Elmer T Lee and Blanton's. Rock Hill is 100 proof of goodness with notes of vanilla and caramel. It is an easy drinking whiskey that is very smooth and compliments perfectly The Heritage. There is no harshness in either the cigar or the whiskey.
Ashton Cabinet Pyramid with Filibuster Rye
This is another mild smoke, but is one of my favorites if you're in the mood for a light touch. It has been described as a blonde torpedo (Figurado) at 6″ with a 52 ring gauge. In spite of its mildness and innocent looks, it is nicely flavorful with smokey, nutty tones and a very nice creamy finish. Like all other Ashtons I've smoked, the Cabinet is very well constructed and you will find yourself ashing it two or three times at most for the entire cigar.
The Filibuster Rye provides a creamy taste profile made up primarily of lightly sweet and moderate spiciness (imagine honey and light pepper at 90 proof). It's made from the MGP mash of 95% rye and 5% malted barley. With the double barrel aging in second-fill French Oak, there is a solid dried fruit and toffee flavor profile. This is the best cigar out of the 5 measured in terms of volume of smoke (I need to pick up a few more of these!) and matches up very well with Filibuster.
Ashton Virgin Sun Grown (VSG) with Knob Creek Single Barrel Bourbon
The Ashton VSG is a full bodied smoke that has an excellent reputation worldwide. It is extremely well made and is a dark colored beauty to observe. It brings to the table espresso and dark chocolate overtones. The VSG is a "home run" in every facet and is very enjoyable. It held an even burn and flavor profile throughout and held my attention down to burning my fingers trying to figure out how to get one more draw before putting it down.
Part of the thrill of this particular pairing was using one of my favorite bourbons! It is a powerful cigar matched with an equally powerful whiskey. Knob Creek Single Barrel (120 proof) doesn't take a backseat to anyone or anything. It's potent, but not overwhelming and very flavorful. There is a long finish with a very satisfying creamy feel.

Imtiaz Ali: Excited to see Ranbir Kapoor in Sanjay Dutt biopic

Imtiaz Ali and Ranbir Kapoor have worked together in two films, and fans cannot wait to see them collaborate once again. After a string of flops, Tamasha brought Ranbir back in the game. And Imtiaz Ali says that he always wants to work with Ranbir.
But more than anything, this time around he is waiting eagerly to see the Dutt biopic. In an interview to IANS, he said, "When I was shooting with him (Ranbir)in Tamasha, I clicked a few of his pictures and sent them to Rajkumar Hirani saying that he already looks so much like Sanjay Dutt, which is a big compliment for Ranbir I think.
"And when Ranbir and Raju sir showed me his look from the film (biopic on Sanjay Dutt), I think he is incredibly closer to the character and I am very keen to see what they have done in that film."
The pictures of Ranbir from the sets of the biopic recently got leaked, and he undoubtedly looks like a spitting image of Sanju baba.
If reports are to be believed, Ranbir will be seen sporting six, totally different looks in Dutt that will highlight different phases in Sanjay Dutt's life.
Tentatively titled Dutt, the film will focus on Sanjay's formative years, his relation with his father Sunil Dutt, his struggles coping up with the loss of his mother, his many affairs, etc.
The film also stars Manisha Koirala, Sonam Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Dia Mirza and Paresh Rawal in pivotal roles.

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. -- The leadership and members of St. James Missionary Baptist Church are in a struggle with the St. Johns County Commission.
The problem is buried beneath heavy bushes: a broken drainage, which belongs to the church, but the county promised to maintain.
"They're suppose to cut all the trees here so that the drainage system works," said Norsalus Jackson, the director of operations for the church.
On rainy days, the problem is very evident. The streets surrounding the church flood easily.
"They said a month ago, if they would have done their job we would not be having this conversation," he said.
The agreement was formed nearly two decades ago between the church and a former county commissioner. It was done on a handshake.
"That was the verbal agreement," Jackson said. "The handshake was his bond."
Why was it necessary? To address the street flooding the county needed to tie into the church's drainage system, in return the county would do the needed maintenance.
"They would take care of our retention ponds and our drainage swale in return for tying into our drainage," he said.
Fast forward to 2017, the county commissioner is no longer in office, there is no written agreement and now the church is seeing the results of poor maintenance, a broken pipe and parking lot damage.
"The pipe has come up," he said. "It now spews into the parking lot and washes away the coquina."
The erosion is causing considerable damage to the parking lot.
"This is where a lot of people's cars get messed up,' Jackson said.
Jackson said now he and his congregation are living with broken promises.
"They promise and promise that they would take care of different issues, parking lot issues and they have totally reneged," he said.
Greg Caldwell is assistant public works director. He said the problem came to their attention in April and they're working on a resolution.
"I think the county is stepping up and trying to what is right " Caldwell said.
He said the county has presented a written proposal. The proposal calls for the county to redo the parking lot, a one time event, and going forward the county will maintain the drainage system.
It is being reviewed by the attorney for the church.
"Everyone has to control their storm water," Jackson said. "We control ours, they need to control theirs and that's the reason our parking lot has eroded. It is because all of their water comes on private property and damages it."
Caldwell said he is is hoping over the next few days the negotiations produce a positive outcome.

In an act of disrespect, the Jasper County Council chair addressed both the executive director of Beaufort-Jasper-Hampton Comprehensive Health and the Jasper County School District superintendent using only first names, but properly addressed the president of the Technical College of the Lowcountry. Subsequently, the chair requested, "let's work together." I am pleased to know that Jasper County leaders want unity.
Our leaders must demonstrate mutual respect. Council members act inappropriately and unwisely when addressing presenters by their first names without the appropriate and acceptable titles. As a citizen of Jasper County, I am aware that such disrespectful behavior is harmful to the relationships among leaders as well as between leaders and constituents, the very people you have pledged to serve and protect. Disregard for simple acts of etiquette, equality, and equity hurt our local collective interest.
For example, not a few, all people presenting to County Council are in a formal setting and are due the proper title. Denying respect to some constituents, while some constituents are accorded respect, promotes an atmosphere of disunity, not unity. Such disrespect demonstrates inequality and inequity in the treatment of the residents and voters of the county. It is a symbol of the intolerance for fellow citizens that Americans have committed in the past.
I urge you to be fair and just regardless of demographics such as race, gender, age, ethnicity, or economic status. I urge you to promote unity and demonstrate your desire to act in the best interest of all your constituents, residents of Jasper County.

Thatchers Branches Out
It's a busy month for Thatchers Cider, with the first TV campaign for Thatchers Gold coupled with the launch of Green Goblin on draught.
The TV campaign for the producer's flagship brand begins in May, running on ITV1 West and Central South for five weeks, and again in July, during prime-time programmes such as Coronation Street.
The campaign, built around the theme "People Who Care About Cider", will focus on the heritage and expertise of Thatchers. It will be supported by trade press and outdoor posters.
"It is an exciting move for us to be bringing Thatchers Gold onto TV for the first time," said managing director Martin Thatcher.
Separately, the producer has announced that its 6% ABV bittersweet Green Goblin Cider is now available on draught, just weeks after it joined the Thatchers portfolio.
"We couldn't keep all that beauty bottled up – so we have gone one better and made Green Goblin available on draught, fresh from our 100-year-old oak vats," explained Thatcher.

The Washington Post reported today that NBC News conveniently decided not to report on a story that parent company General Electric avoided paying taxes on its income last year.
During its Friday broadcast, "NBC Nightly News With Brian Williams" had no time to mention that America's largest corporation had essentially avoided paying federal taxes in 2010. Or its Saturday, Sunday or Monday broeither.

Did NBC's silence have anything to do with the fact that one of its parent companies is General Electric?
NBC News representatives say that it didn't. "This was a straightforward editorial decision, the kind we make daily around here," said Lauren Kapp, spokeswoman for NBC News. Kapp declined to discuss how NBC decides what's news or, in this case, what isn't.

The countdown and preparation for Christmas begins in the Philippines as soon as the calendar hits September, also known as the "Ber" months. The combination of Christmas bonus releases and holiday leaves make it tough to decide which travel opportunity to pick. Having this in mind, families and friends could get the most out of the yuletide season without going way too far from Metro Manila. Here are a few suggestions:
Drop By Casa Santa in Antipolo
For families who wish to have a quick trip, spend a night at Jardin de Marimar and embrace the Christmas feels as you visit the Casa Santa Museum in Antipolo. The Casa Santa Museum houses over 3000 Christmas and Santa Claus items from around the world which makes it a popular attraction during December. Kids can truly enjoy fun holiday activities in store for them. If you are planning to drop by, make sure to call ahead because booking can only be done through reservations.
Catch the Giant Lantern Festival in Pampanga
This annual festival held the Saturday before Christmas is the most awaited holiday activity at San Fernando, Pampanga. The festival is traditionally celebrated through a giant lantern competition among barangays showcasing creativity and resourcefulness in creating parols, which is an iconic Christmas symbol in the Philippines that means "unwavering hope". Tourists can also chill out at one of the wellness resorts around the area while waiting for the competition.
Have a December Camp Out at Anawangin Cove
A chilly night, cold crisp air plus a bonfire surrounded with your loved ones can be a relaxing way to celebrate warm holiday cheers. Located in San Antonio, Zambales, Anawangin Cove has become the go-to place for hikers and even first-time campers who would like to forget about the hustles and bustles of the city and relax around nature in its purest form. Reminisce your boy and girl scout days by setting up camp with family and friends. Get to roast some marshmallows and make s'mores. Go for wireless interaction and meet other campers.

The major anthracite Mines in Ireland were located in Ballingary
Unfortunately anthracite is no longer mined on a commercial basis in Ireland.
Anthracite is a hard, naturally smokeless fuel with a high calorific value and low ash content. The coalfield was positioned in the Slieve Ardagh region and was an extension of the Leinster coalfields. The deposits, which were deeply faulted, comprise of three strata, the lowest averaging nine inches in thickness and the other seams being roughly two feet thick. Due to the inclined coal layer acting as a slippage plane, considerable amounts of the deposits had been crushed and combined with the upper and lower boundary shale. This resulted in a lesser commercially viable content known locally as culm. Due to its high elevation, melting snow in the Slieve Ardagh area intermittently resulted in considerable volumes of flood-water. This regularly threatened to overwhelm the mines normal output of quality anthracite.

For some reason, windsurfing in these parts is considered a "guy" thing. It really shouldn't be. Of course, when you look on the water at Lanier or a local spot, it's largely men who are windsurfing but that's really more about us than the sport.
We are tempted to blame part of this misperception on that notion that only men would be silly enough to jump into Lake Lanier in the winter time. But, someone in our household did the Polar Bear Plunge into Lake Lanier a few years back with her girlfriends so it can't be that. It just may be that women who are starting out windsurfing or considering it don't see many role models.
Well, thanks to the glory of Youtube, here are some good role models in videos posted recently. They aren't doing anything super crazy, just riding and enjoying things. We hope it encourages more women (and men) to get on the water.
Addiction can be a brutal and ugly thing. We doubt that some teenage at a party, when offered an illicit substance for the first time, says, "Why yes, I'd love to do degrading things in back alleys someday. Let's see where this leads us."
No, the lure is pleasure, comfort and a bit of a thrill. It's only later, when the cravings won't stop that even the most impossible idea seems not only plausible but perfectly sensible.
Most of us started windsurfing on a pleasant, warm and gentle day. A caressing breeze filled the sail and momentary lapses of balance only meant a swim in refreshing if not warm water. It was all so fun. So innocent.
Soon equipment was bought. And then more equipment. You maybe had to bargain with the spouse to justify a new (to you, at least) piece of equipment. Maybe you didn't reveal how much that sail cost after shipping and taxes. But, you were really beginning to enjoy the sport and a mast here and fin there didn't seem like a big deal.

President Obama said Tuesday that the Syrian peace talks are still "far from" achieving their goals.
"The first Geneva process committed to a transition process that would preserve and protect the state of Syria, that would accommodate the various sectarian interests inside Syria "¦ and would allow us to return to some semblance of normalcy"¦. We are far from achieving that yet," Obama said at a press conference with French President Francois Hollande.
Diplomats from 11 countries pointed to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government as the reason for a lack of serious progress in the round of peace talks late last month. Obama acknowledged on Tuesday that "Assad's regime wasn't particularly responsive" during the talks.
Another round of talks are ongoing in Geneva.
Hollande and Obama are pressing the Syrian government to open access for humanitarian workers to deliver aid, but a U.N. resolution backing such an effort faces an uphill battle in the Security Council.
"It is not just the Syrians that are responsible — the Russians as well if they are blocking this sort of resolution," Obama said.
The president stressed that the U.S. and its allies are "continuing to explore every possible avenue to solve this problem," and that he reserves "the right to exercise military action "¦ but that has to be deployed wisely."

MANCHESTER — Ron Brown Jr. of Cumberland played in his 39th consecutive Maine Amateur this week.
Brown has won two of them. His first came in 1975 at Fairlawn Golf Course in East Poland and his second was at The Woodlands Club in Falmouth in 1999. Brown missed the cut this year, shooting 83-79-162.
But as a former champion, he has a lifetime exemption to play in the tournament. Next year's tournament site? The Woodlands, where he last won. When Brown won at The Woodlands, it was his home club. He's been playing at the Portland Country Club for the last few years.
After finishing the second round, Brown was understandably discouraged with his play and said he wasn't sure if he'll play in next year's tournament.
Nancy Storey, the executive director of the Maine State Golf Association, wouldn't hear of it.
"You're playing," said Storey to Brown.
Brown likely will have a change of heart after he digests this tournament. When suggested he should play next year to make it an even 40, he smiled and nodded.
REESE MCFARLANE, 15, of Cape Elizabeth was the only player in the field to drive the 280-yard, uphill par-4 12th hole in the first round.
McFarlane, a junior-to-be at Cape Elizabeth High, knocked the ball on the green on the fly with his drive and two-putted for a birdie.
"I killed it," said McFarlane, who the Class B state individual high school title last year.
McFarlane recently returned from a golf camp at the University of North Carolina. That might be a school McFarlane would like to play for after graduation. His sister, Taylor, was a swimmer for the Tar Heels.
THE AUGUSTA Country Club members have come together to welcome the 94th Maine Amateur at their course.
Jason Hurd, the head professional and general manager, said 25 to 30 members showed up for a divot party the day before the tournament. That's where the members go out on the course and replace any divots to get the place in top condition. The course was already in great shape before the members took to it, but it helps to build camaraderie and excitement for the tournament.
Hurd is in his first year at Augusta.
TOMMY STIRLING credits his instructor, Jim Woodward, the head teaching pro at Oak Tree National in Edmonds, Okla., with turning his game around.
Stirling said Woodward keeps it simple. Obviously the information has struck a chord with Stirling, a former Gorham High golfer. Stirling will be a senior at Southwest Oklahoma State.
This was Stirling's fourth straight Maine Amateur and the first time he made the cut. He not only made the cut, he's tied for second place, six shots behind the leader, Ricky Jones, after rounds of 69-70.

LEXINGTON, Ky. - Candace Parker scored 23 points and No. 2 Tennessee weathered a sloppy start to pull away from Kentucky 65-40 Thursday night.
It didn't look good early, but things were business as usual in the end for the defending national champion Lady Vols (15-1, 3-0 Southeastern Conference). Same goes for Parker, who Kentucky coach Matthew Mitchell calls the best female player in the country - college or pros.
Parker made 10 of 14 shots, one below her season-high for baskets in a game. Twice, she put up a highlight-reel left-handed hook shot that the Wildcats' defenders could only watch sail through the net.
No. 3 North Carolina 87, Boston College 59: At Chapel Hill, N.C., Freshmen Cetera DeGraffenreid scored a season-high 20 points, Rashanda McCants added 19 and North Carolina won its eighth straight.
Jessica Breland scored 12 of her 18 points in the decisive first half for the Tar Heels (17-1, 4-0 Atlantic Coast Conference).
The nation's highest-scoring team shot nearly 48 percent, held the Eagles without a field goal for more than 11 minutes and broke the game open by closing the half with 13 straight points as part of a 30-1 run that bridged halftime.
Reserve Rebecca Miles had 16 points and 10 rebounds and Mickel Picco added 15 points and made three 3-pointers for Boston College (14-5, 2-2).
No. 15 Old Dominion 86, VCU 66: At Norfolk, Va., Jazzmin Walters scored six of her 12 points during a decisive run early in the second half and Old Dominion went on to easily beat Virginia Commonwealth.
Old Dominion (13-3, 4-0 Colonial Athletic Association) has won nine straight against VCU and 28 of the last 29. Jessica Canady led Old Dominion with 15 points and Shahida Williams and Tiffany Green also scored 12.
No. 16 Ohio State 43, Illinois 42: At Columbus, Ohio, Maria Moeller made a 3-pointer with 14 seconds remaining to give Ohio State a comeback win.
Down by seven points with 4:56 left, the Buckeyes got a layup from Jantel Lavender and a 3-pointer from Marscilla Packer to cut Illinois' lead to 42-40.
Moeller, a reserve sophomore guard, scored from the right corner on her only shot of the game to give the Buckeyes (14-3, 5-1 Big Ten) their fifth-straight win.
Ashlee Trebilcock led the Buckeyes with 11 points.
Jenna Smith scored 16 points for Illinois (11-6, 3-3).

As part of a 2011 Presidential directive, the Departments of Navy, Energy, and Agriculture announced today that three companies have been awarded contracts to construct and commission biorefineries capable of producing "drop-in" biofuels to meet the transportation needs of the military and private sector. Made through the Department of Defense's (DOD) Defense Protection Act (DPA) of 1950, the awards support the Administration's goals to boost and diversify the domestic fuel supply base, make American warfighters less beholden to volatile oil markets, and strengthen national security.
In total, these projects will produce more than 100 million gallons of military grade fuel beginning in 2016 and 2017 at a price competitive with their petroleum counterparts.
The drop-in alternative fuels can be blended at a 50/50 ratio with traditional fossil fuels. This blend was successfully demonstrated during the Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) demonstration in 2012 for ships and planes, showing firsthand that this fuel can be utilized in Navy's warfighting platforms with no degradation to performance or mission. As these fuels become more available, the Department of the Navy will make advanced drop-in biofuel a regular part of its bulk fuel procurement, ushering in the "new normal" of Naval supremacy.
The companies receiving federal investments for the construction and commissioning of biorefineries are:
- Emerald Biofuels: To build an 82 million gallon/year refinery on the Gulf Coast using waste fats to create military grade fuel.
- Fulcrum BioEnergy: To build a 10 million gallon per year refinery in McCarran, Nevada, using municipal solid waste as its feedstock and the Fischer-Tropsch process to create fuel. On Sept. 4, USDA announced a $105 million Biorefinery Assistance Program loan guarantee to Fulcrum BioEnergy for the construction of this facility.
- Red Rock Biofuels: To build a 12 million gallon per year refinery in Lakeview, Oregon, using woody biomass, or the by-products of forest management, as its feedstock and the Fischer-Tropsch process to create a refined product.

The Celtics ended this game the same way they started it by watching Kyrie Irving drive to the basket essentially unchallenged as he led the Cavs to only their 11th win of the season with a 95-90 win over the plummeting Celtics. The C's matched their season high 4 game losing streak with this loss and even a Doc Rivers post-game threat in Detroit didn't help solve the defensive issues with his team. The Celtics continually get off to poor starts and tonight was no different as they gave up 31 first quarter points (career high 19 points in a single quarter for Irving), allowed Cleveland to shoot 59% (13/22) from the field and scored 14 points in the paint. In the end, the Celtics abysmal combination of bad pick-and-roll and interior defense surrendered 46 points in the paint, including Irving scoring several easy lay-ups. Avery Bradley must still be hurt, as Doc elected to go with Rajon Rondo guarding Irving straight up for most of the game. Rondo clearly couldn't keep Irving in front

Build Guide by Gaishredic
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Ryze Build
Middle Lane
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Welcome to Gaishredic's guide for the revamped Ryze.
This is my first guide so I hope you like it.
I've heard so many people ***** about how they ruined Ryze but I think it was the best change they could make to one of my favorite champions. He never was as good at face melting as his rivals Annie and Veiger because, like them, he was good for one burst combo but lacked the stuns & Tibbers/Primordial Burst ult that seems to give them the edge in team fights. While his spells are weaker now, they seem to work wonders combined with his passive for sustained consistent damage.
Pros / Cons
Solid mid laner with new spell vamp ult
Good Aoe
Insane Burst/ Fast caster
Great farmer/pusher
Zombie's are Awesome
Prone to Ganks (No real escape)
Weak Early game
Summoner Spells
IMO you need Ghost and Flash as Ryze has mobilty issues - they are the best 2 for both offense and defense. So many times flash gets me and extra kill by flash-traping a runner and ghost will save your *** nearly every time if you have good map awareness.
The only other one to consider is Exhaust as it can be used the same way as flash for def/offen but i pref the latter. Each to his own.
Its all about stacking mana with the new Ryze, with this build endgame you should have around 4500 mana, thats +450 damage to Q and +225 damage to W. which while Q is still weaker than the old Q, with 35% CDR (10% masteries + 10% skills + 15% boots) you are casting a Over Load every 2.3 seconds.
The only change I would make is the last item, instead of the Banshee's veil if they have less CC, go another ROA for the Extra HP, MP and AP...or if they have high MR go a Void Staff
Unique Skills
First up let me explain that you can cast a spell and then pop your ult while the first spell is still in the air and it will activate with it, this is important cause with your passive it drops the cooldown reduction for the first spell you cast by 1 second.
The reason people don't understand the power of new Ryze is because there old way of playing him was the classic "Run in and R-W-E-Q-hope-they-die-strategy", now they are trying the same thing and wondering why they can't kill anyone. I never played him this anyway, but now with lower cooldowns his skill cast order has become a lot more situational.
Basically you have 3 skills and what one you cast first is what you need most at the time.
Q for Solo Ganks, W for Kite Kills and E for AOE fights.
My examples are all endgame vs a lvl 18 Xin about as fed as me with around 3000 hp. He is one of ryze's worst rivals cause of his charge and disable with massive physical burst, hard to counter.
The 1 Person Surprise Gank Combo
I came to gank him from behind as he was working our tank alone on the battlefield, as it was a surprise advantage from the bushes and he wasn't running anywhere so it was not best to Rune Prison First.
Since the cooldowns are low and W now does instant damage now I .. Ran in and shot a Q at him first then popped my ult as if was flying, then I used an E to reduce his MR followed by a W to trap him. 3 spells were cast after the Q and since it has a 2.3 sec cooldown + Ryze's passive it was up again straight away which i finshed with an auto for Lichbane proc.
If we break that down with my build end game (Around 630 AP) the damage is insane.
Q = 710 (450 mana + 130 base + 130 AP)
W = 803 (225 mana + 200 base + 378 AP)
E = 350 (130 base + 220 AP) Per hit
Lichbane = 630
So in this combo damage that should take a about 1.5 to 2 second to cast once you get close enough. We got (Q) 710 + (E) 350(x3 max bounce hits) + (W) 803 + (Q) 710 + (lich) 630 = A whopping3803 Magic damage not including the AOE from the bounces.
However later on the situation was reversed with him coming for me just after I killed someone.
The Kite Master Combo
I had about 2000 hp left after ganking Ashe and seen Xin coming for me like i was a dog on heat. With the new increased range i immediately trapped him with a W before he could charge me and then let lose a Q-R-E-Auto-Q combo, but since he had his merc treads on he was out fast with his charge and popped me in the air, he ulted me after that and I had about 400 hp left. I instant flashed backwards and started to bail but Xin tasing the kill and popped ghost to run after me. By now with 35% CDR and (making W a 9 second cooldown) and 3 spells cast after it (-4 secs to the cooldown) it was back up again to trap Xin and finish him with another Q. Classic.
The Pwn you all Combo
This is because bouncing AOE E's does the most Damage to a team + reduces the **** out of their MR. With this combo and your passive you should be able to get in 2 full E's with your AOE damaging ult lasting 7 secs.
Banshee's Veil Counter
I find it best to remove banshee's veil with Q straight away since its cooldown is so low, dont be afraid to throw out Q's like candy now, its awesome.
The New Ryze is superiour to the old Ryze, even if you don't think so. I'm not saying im the best Ryze player in the world I just like him and really like the way riot has changed him for the better. You just have to understand, Soulstealer is no longer viable with him nor is stacking masive ap and you dont have to be ultra fed to be a menece endgame anymore. He is as they put it, a spell machine gun.
Just stack mana, have map awareness and master the combo's ive mentioned above and I garentee to you will succeed with him given enough practice, I played about 10 games with him today when the new patch came out and I was postive by at least +5 every game and had legendary killing spree's on 3 out of 10 of the games.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I am sure you have heard that all the time when you was a child. But it is true. Breakfast is one of those meals that people today tend to skip. I really do not understand. Perhaps the reason why people are so uptight in the morning. You have the shakes from food. Maybe you have a busy lifestyle, but you must make sure that you have time for breakfast. Breakfast is one of those eat meals that you need. I do not believe that there is no choice about it. I know that most people who do eat breakfast, are usually the kind that out of the house with a donut in his hand. This is not really a good idea. I do not know why people jump to sugary breakfast foods. I guess it is the reason why people drink coffee. You need to bolt of energy to wake her. Or they think that they perhaps can not eat a good meal by eating something with sugar. Because they feel energetic after eating a lot of sugar.
ImageHave you ever noticed how difficult it is to wake up at work? Have you noticed how during the day, you get tired? That's because you are not getting the right foods for breakfast. You do not realize the importance of this meal. Every day, you should have a good meal for breakfast?
What are the good things to eat for breakfast? First, we will start with what you should not eat.
Not eating donuts. For these reasons, we have before us. Do not eat any grain, which are loaded with sugar. This is nothing more than empty calories. They do not offer anything. Not only, but too much and you gain weight. Have you ever noticed how you feel sluggish before lunch? This is because you eat too much sugar!
Do not eat a ton of fried foods. Do not eat a lot of bacon, fried eggs, and some french toast. The additional fat will weigh.
Do not eat pasty those who come in boxes. They are responsible for sugar. They do not offer anything that is really good for you. They rob you of all the things you should eat.
Do not load on coffee. Do not think because the coffee can give you energy, you can drink instead of eating. Now, what you should eat.
Eat a cereal that is low in sugar. The cereal with milk is an excellent breakfast. This is a good meal around it.

Some thoughts about Jewish conversion...
To the Jewish mind the idea of "converting" is dangerous, evoking various images of persecution such as the Spanish Inquisition (i.e., "conversos"), Russian pogroms, and even the Holocaust itself.... For a Jew to convert to Christianity makes him or her ū×ų░ū®ūüų╗ū×ų╝ųĖūō (meshumad) a term that connotes betrayal of the Jewish community. While a Jew who skeptically denies basic dogmas of Judaism is called ūÉūżūÖū¦ūĢū©ūĢūĪ (apikoros) by the rabbis, a Jew who turns to another faith altogether (and especially to Christianity) is considered ū×ūĢū×ū© (mumar) or ūżūĢū®ūó ūÖū®ū©ūÉū£ (poshea Israel) - a "transgressor of Israel." Simply put, conversion is not part of the milin havivin ("beloved words") of the traditionalist Jew.
Perhaps because of such negative connotations, a Messianic friend recently remarked to me, "Jews don't need to convert to Christianity; they just need to be "completed," like the Apostle Paul who became a completed Jew."
Learn Hebrew
Jews don't need to convert to Christianity; they just need to be "completed," like the Apostle Paul...
Now what do we make of such a statement? In relation to the words of Yeshua and his disciples, would the substitution of the word "completed" for "converted" prove helpful? Putting aside the negative connotation of the word "convert" for a moment, should we believe that there is such an "ontological difference" between Jews and non-Jews that a while a non-Jew may "convert," a Jew becomes "completed"?
Make the heart of this people dull, and their ears heavy,
The connection between "converting" (ŽāŽäŽü╬ĄŽåŽē) and the Hebrew idea of teshuvah (ū¬ū®ūĢūæūö, from ū®ūĢūæ meaning to "turn") should be noted. Notice, however, that the shuvah mentioned by Isaiah during his great vision (Isaiah 6) pertained to the people's stubborn refusal to heed the warning of God to turn from their evil ways. Consequently, punishment upon punishment would come, even including the exile of the Jewish people from the Promised Land (i.e., the Diaspora which Moses also foretold). However, even after the "tree of Israel" had been reduced to a "mere stump," the indestructible Seed of the Holy One would arise from whom the people would be regenerated (Isaiah 6:11-13): zarah kodesh matzavtah.
Now is this regeneration part of a continuum from an earlier life, or is it something entirely (and ontologically) new? In other words, does the "holy Seed from the stump" imply that those who later would "come from the tree" are in need of some sort of reformation (i.e., "completion") or is spiritual rebirth what is meant? How we answer that question will decide whether or not we should use the word "completed" or "converted" in relation to a Jewish believer in Yeshua.
A lot more could be said about this subject, of course, but this will have to suffice for now. Language ultimately has its limits, after all, and labels often do more harm than good. We often struggle to use words to point to what is Real and Abiding. "By the grace of God I am what I am," as Paul said (1 Cor. 15:10) -- good enough for me!
Hebrew for Christians

text: It seems to be happening about an hour or so before bedtime. I can't even remember what started it last night. I decided to follow through with a consequence, that's right, nothing big, I just got my firmness on lol and he reacted. He went on and on about how I disrespect his feelings. Oh and I made the biggest mistake by smiling at that (how could I not) and he started sobbing about me always hurting his feelings. It's been exactly a week on the Ritalin. Perhaps this is that thing that happens when they come off their medications? He is taking an 8 hour pill and I was hoping to not go more than that. So it should be out of him by around 4:00 -- but we're seeing the emotional lability about 7-8. Could the medications be causing the increase in irritability and emotional reactiveness? If so would there be any way to counteract that? Might it subside as he adjusts? Thanks!

So, I may or may not be completely obsessed with my Crockpot.
Okay, I confess! I am totally obsessed. I have made Tex Mex Chicken three times, Zesty Italian BBQ Chicken twice and I even turned my Buffalo Chicken recipe into a macaroni and cheese dish.
The crockpot is so brilliant because you really just toss a bunch of things into it, and your meal is magically ready 6 hours later. I see recipes all the time that require stovetop prep for a slow cooker recipe, like sautéing onions or what have you, and I'm inclined to say NO THANK YOU.
Recently, I found a recipe for Pesto Ranch Crockpot Chicken Thighs on Picky Palate. Yes, please! Normally I pin recipes and forget about them, but with this one, I had to make it right away.
This recipe is a beautiful thing because not only is it a dump-everything-in kind of deal, but it only calls for 4 ingredients: 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs (we used 6 breasts), a 6 ounce jar of pesto, a package of dry ranch mix and 1/2 cup of chicken broth.
I've never really cooked with pesto for Xavier because he's generally not a fan of anything green on principle alone, but I am very proud to say that this recipe is Manchild Approved. AND Kelsey approved, needless to say. I wouldn't change a thing about it (besides the thigh/breast switch). I shredded up the leftovers and used in my salads all week, which definitely kicked my lunch up a knotch.
Check out Picky Palate for the recipe!

Samsung Galaxy S III vs Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX
Samsung is using their TouchWiz Nature UX, and Motorola uses their MotoBLUR design.
Both are heavily integrated, and you really don't see anything of the stock Android ICS interface. There are 5 static icons on the bottom of both the Galaxy S III and RAZR MAXX, though they can be customized, and the App Draw now moves horizontally side-to-side, instead of scrolling vertically. There also is a selection of Widgets, though there are a few more on the Galaxy S III, and have more functionality. Additionally, the Galaxy S III provides you with a total of 7 home screens, while the RAZR MAXX is still limited to only 5.
To us, the TouchWiz Nature UX interface on the Samsung Galaxy S III appears more polished and runs more fluid than the MotoBLUR interface on the RAZR MAXX.
There is very little difference between the E-Mail programs on the Galaxy S III and RAZR MAXX, as both allow you to accomplish the same tasks. We did notice some bugs with the E-Mail app on the RAZR MAXX since its update to Android ICS. We have it set to check our POP3 accounts every hour, but sometimes a few hours would go by and they would not be checked. Also, IMAP Push didn't always seem to work, and we manually had to check for new messages. Because of this, we ended up installing K-9 Mail as a work-around on the RAZR MAXX. Thankfully, the included E-Mail app on the Galaxy S III worked just fine, checking POP3 accounts as it should, and IMAP Push also worked without a hitch. GMail still uses its own dedicated app, and can check multiple GMail accounts.
The on-screen QWERTY keyboards share a similar layout, but we actually found the one on the RAZR MAXX easier to use since comes up a bit higher on the screen than on the Galaxy S III. Also, the auto word completion seems to be more accurate on the RAZR MAXX.
Processor and Memory:
Without a doubt, the 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm MSM8960 Snapdragon S4 processor on the Galaxy S III flies in the face of the 1.2GHz dual-core TI OPAM 4430 processor that is on the RAZR MAXX. Add to that, the Galaxy S III comes with 2GB of RAM, instead of 1GB on the RAZR MAXX. Before the benchmarks were even done, we could easily tell the Galaxy S III was faster, as apps opened and ran quicker than on the RAZR MAXX.
|Quadrant Standard
|NenaMark 2
|Samsung Galaxy S III
|Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX
The Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX comes with 16GB of internal memory and also a 16GB microSDHC memory card pre-installed, while the Samsung Galaxy S III is available with either 16GB or 32GB of internal memory – and the microSD card slot is empty. Both phones are capable of using up to a 64GB memory card.
Internet and Connectivity:
The included web browser on the Samsung Galaxy S III does a great job, as pages are properly rendered, and pinch-to-zoom and kinetic scrolling are both fast and fluid. We also appreciated the fact that most embedded Flash content and videos (such as YouTube) were able to load and play properly in the web page. Meanwhile, the stock browser on the Motorola RAZR MAXX feels a bit clunky, doesn't zoom and scroll as smooth, and after the ICS update we've noticed that most embedded Flash videos will not play. We tried out the Dolphin HD and Chrome Browsers on the RAZR MAXX, and found that Chrome did work the best, and even was able to work properly with most embedded Flash videos.
We love that both devices run on Verizon's 4G LTE Network, but again we saw some differences. We ran the SpeedTest.net app several times at night and during the day around the Ft Lauderdale area, and the Samsung Galaxy S III continually got faster 4G speeds than the Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX. For example, we ran one test outside our house at night after 1am so there would be lower internet traffic, and the Galaxy S III got a download speed of 14.29 Mbps and an upload speed of 7.26 Mbps with a 99ms Ping time. The RAZR MAXX got about half that speed, with 7.90 Mbps download and 3.77 Mbps upload, with a ping time of 100ms.
Both phones also support Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, though the Galaxy S III can also use the less crowded 5GHz Wi-Fi band. It also supports NFC, and S Beam, so you can transfer files easily to another S Beam enabled phones.

Your GS3 quadrant scores are way too loww!! I have Verizon GS3 and i get 5000 on daily basis.
2. OptimusOne (Posts: 694; Member since: 22 May 2012)
it still beats the razr.
and they should do quadrant 3 times and average them. because quadrant scores go higher each time.
10. jinwons (Posts: 95; Member since: 24 Nov 2010)
Right. Quadrant is very unreliable benchmark. For best result, you should boot the phone and run test multiple times to average it. GS3 score will be closer to 5000 this way.
26. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
You are correct; we have re-tested it and have updated the score :)
43. babyboy14622 (Posts: 36; Member since: 05 Jul 2012)
i have the razr maxx and i get over 5000 on a dalily bases
44. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
proof or gtfo.
46. baldilocks (Posts: 1016; Member since: 14 Dec 2008)
PhoneArena has been using the wrong Quadrant scores for the International GS3 for quite some time too. They have it pegged at 4400 when they ALL get 5600 all day long.
3. Cyan3boN (Posts: 446; Member since: 23 Feb 2012)
i would get the razr if i were looking for style, i dont care about the rest though
4. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
another stupid comparison. Compare S III with Atrix HD.
5. snowgator (Posts: 3609; Member since: 19 Jan 2011)
There isn't any way the GS3 would lose to the Atrix HD. The Atrix is designed to give top end LTE and HD screen performance, but it also designed to be a little less expensive. But, that doesn't mean that it, or the RAZR MAXX, aren't good choices. Just that the Samsung beast is top shelf right now.
19. caseball2051 (Posts: 31; Member since: 09 Feb 2012)
youre gonna call this a stupid comparison and then ask for a compariston between a super smartphone (GS3) and the atrix HD which is a mid level phone?
31. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
I call this stupid because it is stupid.
Atrix HD is a far better phone than RAZR,
It has S4 dual core cpu, the same which can be found in HTC ONE X, 720p screen which is really good actually, much better build quality (comparing to S III). There are some drawbacks of course but I wouldn't dare to say that S III is in a completely different league. At least Atrix HD is better in so many ways than RAZR. The only grudge is presumably its battery life.
6. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
FAUguy... who is this?
Anyways, my RAZR MAXX only has 8GB of internal storage, and I think all others are like that.
The camera on the razr is really bad... I'm hoping to see something better with the new Razr's 13MP camera.
14. RORYREVOLUTION (Posts: 3130; Member since: 12 Jan 2010)
If you ever watch any of PA's video reviews on Youtube, he's the guy who always has the same Disney wallpaper on his phone review devices. He's been with PA for some years now.
16. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
Ah... never noticed him.. lol
I do know that Disney wallpaper you are talking about. I've seen it quite a bit, all the way back to feature phones.
20. RORYREVOLUTION (Posts: 3130; Member since: 12 Jan 2010)
I'm not sure if he gets paid by Disney to seemingly advertise for them but it's really odd that EVERY review, comparison, preview, etc video that he does. He ALWAYS has the same Disney wallpaper. Or maybe he just loves Disney that much =P
21. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
lol we should ask him.
FAU isn't that close to Disney anyways, it's pretty far down south. I don't watch PA's vids on YouTube, but I do notice the Wallpaper in some reviews and such. Very interesting note.
27. FAUguy (Posts: 78; Member since: 09 Apr 2008)
I started using that wallpaper (which I took with a Canon camera) about 7 years ago, and kept using it as a way to easily show which phone reviews were done by me. I'm in South FL, about 4 hours from Orlando.
7. lzsbleach (Posts: 155; Member since: 20 May 2012)
If u want a premium feel buy a premium case.
8. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
why do motorola make there phones with huge bezels,the 2 phones are all most the same size yet one is 4.8'' and the other is 4.3''...same goes for battery why couldnt samsung put in larger battery or is just not possible to have a large battery unless its a unibody design?
9. jinwons (Posts: 95; Member since: 24 Nov 2010)
but you can change battery on GS3 and I'm sure that extended battery will be available soon. this is not possible with Maxx though it has big enough battery.
11. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
i have the s3,dont really have a problem with battery but bigger battery wouldnt hurt it...hopefully they bring out a extended battery with 2500+ mah that also keeps the phone slim...ie like they did with the nexus
13. RORYREVOLUTION (Posts: 3130; Member since: 12 Jan 2010)
That has been one of Motorola's problems since the Droid X. Devices are way bigger and taller yet the screen stays the same size vs HTC and Samsung devices.
The RAZR MAXX is a great device, let's hope the sequal gets the same if not bigger battery with the most up to date specs.
15. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
I love how you guys had so many different problems with your MAXX that I've never even heard of as a member of the Razr community. I've used 5 different builds of ICS on my dad's MAXX and my own Razr and none of them have had any of the issues you've described and as far as speed tests next to the SIII I've found the opposite to be true in my testing.
24. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
Alright I rooted my phone and all.. but I made a pretty bad mistake.
I got an app uninstalled (for the built-in apps) and I accidently deleted the default email app. (not gmail, Email.. Verizon's) I'm getting a txt message for every email and things are screwing up.
Do you know how i can fix this. Sorry for so many questions. I need the Razr version of Email.apk... and know what to do with it. Any suggestions?
25. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
I don't think there is a .211 system dump out there yet. you'll probably just have to fastboot. in the future just freeze apps you don't want, never delete them. freezing is completely reversable whereas deleting is not.
29. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
Alright. Thanks.
32. jackhammeR (Posts: 1548; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
consider yourself as a lucky one:)
17. wsucoug13 (Posts: 164; Member since: 04 May 2012)
This really isn't even a fair comparison. 2011 vs 2012 top end phones. I expect a top end 2013 phone to beat the SIII
22. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
or even the next Nexus (hopefully by Motorola)

The once flourishing Marathi Film Industry, which boasted of hit films like Katyar Kaljat Ghusli, Killa, Court and Dagadi Chawl among others with its original storyline, screenplay, direction and Box Office Hit, is now gasping for breath.
Once heralded as cinematically wealthy 'Marathi Industry' is now losing at the Box Office. While business profit made by cinema on box office, such criteria is been always testing Marathi movies, recent released films like Urfi, Dhangarwada, Mahanayak Vasant Tu, Shalee, Lathi, Partu, Bai Go Bai, Shinma and Carry On Deshpande worked terribly at the Box Office.
The deteriorating conditions can largely be attributed to the lack of Theatre Distribution, Poor Marketing and Promotional Activities involved for the films promotion. As a matter of fact, these films did not even manage to create a buzz or even grab the attention amongst the audiences.
While, there are so many who are a part of film industry and yet they lack education and skills needed for it, be it stage shows, television shows, theatre or films. We believe the marketing team do not have proper knowledge about marketing, satellite rights, digital rights and TV premiere. Is this why Marathi movies lack behind? This is a question that needs some serious thinking!
And so, not surprisingly, Marathi films, even if they are acclaimed, lose out at the Box Office!

text: The beauty to some of the most dreamy engagement sessions is in their simplicity. Monica Ellerbrock & Ike Belk wanted their fall engagement session to echo their wedding locale, a place a touch outdoorsy, rustic in spirit while nestled into the woods. Out of context it might sound like the description to a thousand possible places, but if I said the movie title, 'Dirty Dancing' would it start to become much clearer?! Monica & Ike are getting married at the very same mountain resort that Dirty Dancing was filmed at, Mountain Lake in Virginia, which I could not love the idea of this more! To capture each sweet moment, the couple enlisted North Carolina wedding photographer Kelly Rae Stewart Photography for both their fall engagement session as well as their wedding. The trio found the perfect North Carolina locale to emulate their future Virginia retreat surroundings on the most delicious of golden hour sun filled days yet! The result is a wonderfully sweet, well styled fall engagement shoot that plays up the smitten moments between the two all while harnessing the artful delight that is a sun drenched late afternoon.

Bring the Bandouliere anywhere you go and easily snap it on your bag for convenience and style. What's great is you can even have yours personalised with your initials at the Louis Vuitton store. With so many options to choose from, your Louis Vuitton bag will look brand new with just one slight tweak.
The Bandouliere collection retails at SGD680 for Monogram canvas, SGD765 for Epi leather, and SGD1210 for python leather. It is now available at the Louis Vuitton Island Maison at Marina Bay Sands and Ngee Ann City.
