The price hike, the third in the last 12 months, translates into an increase of 0.85 per cent to 3.87 per cent and comes into effect from tonight. The price increases have not been extended to its other models � Zen, Wagon R, Alto, Baleno and the recently launched Versa.
Maruti Udyog had signalled its intention to raise prices in early December and most had expected it to come through by the middle of this month.
�The volume models have to bear the brunt of the price increase because in a tight market, we cannot raise the prices of the high-cost cars. We also have to watch customers� affordability. Our cost of raw materials has increased by 2-3 per cent. Despite mounting costs and the depreciating rupee, the effort has been to hold down the price hikes to the barest minimum. The company has, instead, implemented a wide range of measures to cut costs and enhance quality,� said a Maruti spokesperson.
The price of Maruti 800 standard variant has been raised by 1.7 per cent � by Rs 3,753 � to Rs 2.21 lakh (ex- showroom Delhi). The price of the �EX� will now go up by Rs 8,677 to Rs 2.52 lakh.
The price of the Maruti 800 DLX price has been upped by Rs 8,835 taking the price to Rs 2.73 lakh. The price of the Omni five-seater variant has been raised by Rs 2,307 to Rs 2.26 lakh.
The models in the B segment, like Alto, Wagon R and Zen have not turned dearer after a marginal increase last August when the prices of Alto and Zen went up by Rs 300-Rs 500.
The prices of the two Esteem variants � LX and VX � have gone up by Rs 4,161 and Rs 4,696 respectively. The LX version will now carry a price tag of Rs 4.95 lakh, while the VX version will sport a sticker price of Rs 5.44 lakh.
The premium segment, offering Baleno, its station wagon cousin � the Baleno Altura � and the latest offering, Versa, have been left out of the recent increase.
The company first raised prices last May, by 0.1 per cent to 1.5 per cent. In the second round in August, the company increased the prices of all their models by 1-2 per cent, except Baleno, Altura and Esteem VX. The Versa had not been launched at that time. The prices in August went up by Rs 2,600-6,500 in Delhi (ex-showroom).
Although this is about 15-18 per cent higher than last year�s budgetary support figure, it still falls short of the Rs 1,30,000 crore that the Planning Commission has demanded of the finance minister by some Rs 17,000 crore to Rs 21,000 crore.
Plan panel deputy chairman K.C. Pant had held a series of meetings with finance minister Yashwant Sinha over the last week to persuade him to accede to the higher figure stressing that with low growth in the last two years, it was politically imperative that the BJP pump primes the economy ahead of next year�s elections to four states, including Delhi, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.
Pant�s logic is simple�private sector investment is not forthcoming, especially in the key infrastructure sector. Hence, greater government spending was required to raise the growth rate, create fresh jobs and make the reforms a political success. With the axe of voluntary separation and industrial closure hanging over large tracts of industrial India, rumblings of discontent have been particularly sharp even within the ruling party. In fact, as the planners stressed at their meeting with finance ministry mandarins, the rate of growth in industrial credit, a key indicator of private sector investment, has been coming down over the past five years. It has tumbled from over 30 per cent in 1994-95 to less than 12 per cent his year.
The answer, they contend, is higher public investment through plan projects which would create its own demand pull in key sectors like cement, steel, and capital goods.
However, Sinha�s point is that he cannot pay for this pump priming to the extent that Pant and his aides want, partly because he has to contend with demands from the military machine, posted on the border with Pakistan, which is gobbling up huge amounts of non-plan funds. He also does not expect significantly higher tax collections in the coming year. In fact, tax collections this year are likely to be a disaster in terms of targets, falling short by as much as 20 per cent. Hence, it would be unrealistic to expect too much of an increase in outlay next year.
The finance ministry officials estimate the fiscal deficit is likely to balloon to an all-time high of about Rs 1,35,000 crore.
Senior State Bank officials confirmed the probe was under way, but remained tight-lipped about the details of what it was supposed to unearth. �I have not heard of such a thing. At least, we have not received any communication from CBI. So I cannot comment on the matter,� SBI chief Janki Ballabh told The Telegraph.
SBI Home Finance, he said, will soon get a new chairman after P.K. Sarkar, who was appointed to the top slot in June last year, leaves. �Sarkar has taken over as the executive director of Calcutta Stock Exchange. He cannot hold two jobs. We will be appointing a new chairman soon. The name will be announced in a week or two.�
Asked about the future of the Calcutta-based SBI subsidiary, Ballabh said a final decision on the company�s fate will be taken after reviewing its performance.
SBI Home Finance has decided to scale down operations because institutional shareholders have not infused much-needed fresh capital required to put the company on the road to revival.
The board�s January 8 meeting in Calcutta decided to suspend new loans, stop accepting fresh deposits and halt renewals. It has also resolved to consolidate the business activities, rationalise the branch network and focus on loan recovery. The company has 24 offices across the country ,including the head-office. �All these measures are aimed at beefing up the bottomline of the company. Let us see what happens,� Ballabh said.
SBI Home Finance was promoted by State Bank of India and HDFC in 1987. They hold 26 per cent and 14 respectively in the company. Other major institutional shareholders are the UTI, LIC, GIC and its subsidiaries. UTI controls 7.87 per cent while other FIs together have 9.9 per cent; 42.21 per cent is with the public.
The French major is keen on the project�s LNG unit. �We will participate in the bidding with an Indian partner,� Jacques Gautier, project director of Gaz de France, told reporters at the foundation-stone laying ceremony of a LNG import terminal at the Dahej port in Gujarat.
Six companies � three foreign and three Indian � are in the fray to buy DPC, which has a 2,184 MW Dabhol plant and an LNG facility at Dabhol in Maharashtra�s Ratnagiri district.
The bidding process for the power plant and liquefied natural gas (LNG) unit is expected to start in a few days.
Gaz de France will have to vie with Royal Dutch/Shell and European oil major TotalFina Elf to snap up Enorn�s stake. Prominent local bidders are BSES, Tata Power Company (TPC) and Gas Authority of India (Gail). Tata Power Company and Gail have already indicated that a joint bid for DPC is a possibility.
Senior officials of Gaz de France made it clear at Dahej today that their company was interested only in the LNG facility at Dabhol, saying the issue has been discussed with the Indian lenders to the project. �We have no intention to enter India�s electricity market,� Gautier said.
It is not known if the assets of DPC will be sold piecemeal. Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI), one of the biggest Indian lenders to the project, has said it would like to hive off the plant as a single entity, instead of accepting separate bids for the power generation facility, LNG-landing jetty and storage depot.
Analysts say this cannot stop bidders from forming an alliance and splitting the operations after buying the project. The Dabhol unit has been lying idle since June 2001 due to a dispute over the cost of power sold to MSEB.
The second phase of the power project was almost complete when the controversy erupted. Enron owns a 65 per cent stake in Dabhol Power Company, General Electric Co and US-based contractor Bechtel Corp hold 10 per cent each, while MSEB controls the remaining 15 per cent.
Bids soon
Initial bids for Enron�s stake are likely to be invited in the next few days and the due diligence exercise for will start by the first week of February. Earlier, IDBI chairman P. P. Vora had said the entire process would be completed by end of the fiscal. Financial institutions have asked Rotschild, DSP Merill Lynch along with Suisse Securities to act as global advisors for the deal. The bids will be scrutinised by mid March, sources close to the process said.
Authorised dealers have been allowed to extend the period of realisation beyond six months from the date of export for invoices of $ 1,00,000 or less. However, exporters will have to declare that they will realise the amount in the extra time. Dealers will have to show �sufficient and reasonable causes� while asking for more time.
According to the central bank, an extension may be granted up to three months at a time. On extensions beyond a year from the date of export, dealers will have to ensure the amount is not more than 10 per cent of exporters� average earnings in the preceding three years.
The ceiling of $ 1,00,000 will not apply where the exporter has filed a suit against the importer, and in such cases, the extension will have to be granted up to six months at a time, irrespective of the amount involved.
All cases not covered by the new rules will require prior approval. Extensions on export invoices over $ 1,00,000 under investigation by Enforcement Directorate/Central Bureau of Investigation or other agencies (except where there is a legal suit against the importer abroad) will still require prior clearance. While exporters welcomed the relaxation, some rued the fact that $ 1,00,000 was not large enough, and would only benefit smaller players.
The decision to close the Manesar unit was primarily taken as growth within the Indian alkaline battery segment was below the projected rate.
While sources close to Gillette India did not divulge the details about capital grant, they said the proceeds will be used by the company in the current line of business. It has been done primarily to �strengthen the financial position of Gillette India and meet its long-term commitments,� they said.
According to sources, it is unlikely that the stake of the parent company would rise in Gillette India from the present 72 per cent.
As regards the alkaline battery unit, decision on which was taken earlier this month, sources said Gillette would henceforth source alkaline batteries from other Duracell world-wide facilities.
�Improved efficiencies at Duracell plants world-wide, coupled with highly competitive global market conditions, made it no longer cost effective to export from the Duracell India plant,� a press statement issued by the company added.
It was also found that maintaining production for the Indian market alone was not viable and placed severe financial constraints on the company.
The plant, which had a capacity of 140 million pieces, used to employ around 175 personnel. They have all been given voluntary retirement benefits.
The plant only manufactured AA size alkaline batteries, while other sizes were being imported. Plans are now on to source all alkaline batteries from other Duracell facilities world-wide.
Sources pointed out that while Gillette India is still in talks with its parent on the ways to deploy the machinery of the Manesar plant, it is likely that it will be shipped abroad.
Gillette Company is the world leader in male grooming, a category that includes blades, razors, and shaving preparations.
Turnover was also marginally lower at Rs 372.7 crore as against Rs 380.3 crore last year, the company said in a statement.
Performance for the third quarter was affected by an illegal strike at Rayon plant at Veraval and voluntary retirement scheme at textile plant in Rishra, it said. The board also decided to further defer the buyback plan.
For the nine months-ended the net profit was down by 11 per cent at Rs 28.7 crore (Rs 32 crore) while turnover was slightly higher at Rs 1,078 crore (Rs 1,063.1 crore), it said.
Kesoram net plummets
The B K Birla Group flagship Kesoram Industries Ltd today announced that its net profit during the third quarter-ended December had come down to Rs 0.24 crore from Rs 3.01 crore in the corresponding quarter of last fiscal.
Net sales were down by Rs 6.26 crore to Rs 332.80 crore from Rs 339.06 crore while other income slipped to Rs 3.15 crore from Rs 5.62 crore in the same quarter of last fiscal, officials said after a board meeting here.
SSI net dips
Hit by the global slowdown in software business, especially in the US, SSI Ltd�s revenue nose-dived to Rs 66.08 crore in the quarter-ended December from Rs 115.43 crore in the corresponding previous quarter.
According to the unaudited figures released by the company, profit for the period dipped to Rs 1.74 crore from Rs 25.08 crore in the corresponding previous quarter.
Indo Gulf net up
The Aditya Birla Group�s Indo Gulf Corporation Ltd has posted a 36.25 per cent rise in net profit at Rs 88.17 crore for the third quarter ended-December compared with Rs 64.71 crore for the same period last fiscal.
Net sales for the period under review grew by 11.47 per cent at Rs 765.11 crore as against Rs 686.38 crore last fiscal, the company said in a release here today.
TVS Motor sales up
TVS Motor Co have announced a 10 per cent increase in turnover at Rs 522.76 crore compared with Rs 476.34 crore in the third quarter of last fiscal. Two-wheeler sales during the period rose to 2,34,055 units, an increase of 7 per cent over last year�s sale of 2,19,089 units.
The increase in sales have been a direct result of motorcycle sales which grew by 36 per cent over the corresponding previous period.
Sources said Reliance had paid the required Rs 100 crore fee for the licence and had backed it up with bank guarantees worth Rs 400 crore. However, Reliance officials refused to confirm this.
Bharti and state-run Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd are already locked in a price war over STD business with both trying to price out the other by offering steep discounts for STD phone calls made over their lines. Already, fixed line STD call prices have tumbled by as much as 60 per cent and cell-to-cell STD prices have also been brought down to the same levels following an interim order issued by Trai on the eve of the launch of IndiaOne�s service from January 26.
Earlier, IndiaOne had announced a tariff of Rs 12 per minute, 50 per cent lower than the existing levels of Rs 24 a minute. BSNL riposted by slashing its tariff by 62 per cent to Rs 9 per minute during the peak hours. The subsequent Trai order has created parity in the tariff charged by the two networks.
The price war kicked off by Bharti was largely viewed as a bid to call the shots in the market before Reliance entered the fray. Reliance is expected to kickstart its STD service sometime in the middle of this year. With Reliance entering the fray, the price war may well intensify.
Reliance has been late in finishing their nationwide telephone cable laying operation while Bharti has taken several shortcuts by renting several leased circuits from state-run organisations.
But in this war, BSNL will obviously hold the trump cards over Bharti and Reliance as the state-run giant has larger catchment areas for tapping STD callers as it operates basic and cellular services in more states.
Between Bharti and Reliance, the latter has a richer base for tapping STD calls for its long distance network. Other telecom companies too will be using these gateways, but the bulk of revenues from long distance calls is expected to come from group companies operating cell and basic phones in various states.
Besides biting into the Rs 7,000 crore-a-year STD market, Reliance and Bharti also stand to gain with larger number of STD calls originating from their cellular and basic circles.
Both Reliance and Bharti have announced their intention to bid for a controlling stake in the country�s sole international telephone call carrier � the state run Videsh Sanchar Nigam Ltd �and the winner is expected to reap big time profits as international telephony still remains the most profitable business within the telecom industry. VSNL�s monopoly on international telephony ends on April 1 this year.
International tour operators, airlines and hotel chains have teamed up to offer packages that were unthinkable till a few months ago. In addition, there are attractive equated monthly installment (EMI) schemes being dangled by several tour operators which make foreign travel affordable even for the hoi-polloi.
�The September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and its aftermath have had an adverse impact on international travel. But, on the other hand, the cost of travel has come down to levels that could prompt even a common man to plan a vacation abroad, family in tow,� says a senior official of SOTC, a travel house which has slashed prices of several packages by 50 per cent.
For instance, on a 14-day Europe tour, the company is offering a package of Rs 1.2 lakh for a couple and a child under 12; the package cost twice as much a few months back.
A 14-day tour of Australia with SOTC now comes at $ 2699 for a couple, instead of one person a few months back.
Prabbuddha Sen of SOTC said his company has been able to pare prices simply because airlines, hoteliers and sight-seeing operators abroad have done so. �We are only passing the benefits to customers,� he added.
Optimistic that the discount bonanza will put more people on the plane to overseas destinations, he said: �The business was far from encouraging last year because of the slowdown and terror attacks. However, we believe this year will turn out to be very good for us.�
What makes him more upbeat is the fact that the current year has been declared as the �year of International travellers. �We will see to it that the year is a grand success in terms of volume of traffic generated.�
SOTC has promised travellers will be flown by KLM airlines and put up at star hotels in the Europe package. Thomas Cook, another international tour operator, has come out with attractive packages to woo those with wanderlust.
For a 16-day tour of Europe, that covers almost all major cities along with a one-day halt in Dubai, the company is charging only Rs 1.15 lakh. According to says A Ray, a senior marketing executive, the package includes all expenses for food, lodging and sight-seeing.
The operators are also pulling out all stops to make sure money�s not a problem when it comes to a vacation. While Thomas Cook has tied up with Citibank for installment schemes, SOTC has roped in Kotak Mahindra Finance.

When we speak about factors that has direct impact on nifty future trend, mostly fundamental factor are more responsible then technical factors. Let me share these fundamental factors:
1. Food inflation: Food inflation has been recent challenge for central government, we see whenever food inflation goes high there is always hike in key interest rates. Interest rates hike kills growth of rate sensitive sectors like realty sector, banking sector and automobile sector.
2. RBI Policy: RBI credit policy is also major fundamental factor in deciding for trend of nifty future, when interest rates are hiked nifty future generally crashes.
3. Industrial Production: IIP is the number that is being looked when we say about industrial production, when IIP is below expectation or lower than previous release nifty future goes down for few trading sessions. If IIP is better than the expectation nifty future bounces for some trading sessions.
4. Results: Results here are quarterly and annual, mostly watched are annual results as it shows the performance of a company for complete 1 year. Good results are reason for nifty future to move higher, we are talking about those companies that are included in nifty index. Results lower than expectation can drag nifty future lower also that stock will underperform.
5. Policy Reforms: Policies from government can be very good support for sectors, if they are focused on growth. India is still waiting for some policies reforms to be done to improve the capital flow into the economy.
These factors has direct relations to our stock market so such events must be watched and analysed before taking a medium to long term positions on nifty future.
What factors can change the trend in nifty future
When we speak about factors that has direct impact on nifty future trend, mostly fundamental factor are more responsible then technical factors. Let me share these fundamental factors:

Unusual Undergraduate and Graduate Scholarships for Deaf
If you lost your hearing at an early age, don't imagine for a second that your chances of going to college are lost. Have you read about the unique scholarships for deaf people that you can use to complete your college education?
Are you a deaf person working on a doctoral degree? This hearing scholarship may be exactly what you need to help you finance your education. The Graduate Fellowship Fund, or GFF, was founded to offer tuition deaf scholarships to people who are working on their doctoral degrees and are deaf or hard of hearing. You must have already been accepted into a PhD program to qualify for this unusual scholarship, though.
If you are an undergraduate student who is deaf or hard of hearing, apply for the Minnie Pearl Scholarship, a disability scholarship administered by the EAR Foundation. If you would like to apply for this undergraduate scholarship award of $2,000, you need to be a high school senior with a 3.0 Grade Point Average (GPA). You'll also have to be accepted at, but not yet attending, an accredited college or university on a full-time basis. Be aware, however, that only students who are U.S. citizens may apply for one of these 14 disability scholarships. Hurry, though, the deadline is February 15th. Applications submitted after that date will not be eligible for consideration.
Another unusual type of financial aid scholarship is the National Fraternity Society of the Deaf Scholarships. This tuition assistance is offered to persons who have been members of the society for at least one year prior to applying for these scholarships funds, and are enrolled in or accepted at an accredited college or university. Ten scholarships of $1,000 each are awarded to successful applicants who are society members each year. Members of the society who do not have hearing impairments are also eligible to apply for these unique scholarships. Apply before July 1st in order to have your scholarship application considered.

Likewise, if you are a resident of the state of Wisconsin, take advantage of the state grants that are available to physically challenged students.
The United States isn't the only country in which deaf scholarships are offered to students facing this physical challenge. Students in Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom can take advantage of a number of scholarship for deaf opportunities, and the International Deaf Education and Advancement Fund offers a number of disability scholarships to students living in developing countries who are facing the challenges of being deaf and seeking an education.
These and other scholarships for deaf persons were developed by individuals and groups who realized that deaf persons have just as much to contribute as hearing persons, but may require financial assistance in overcoming their physical challenges. Don't let these deaf scholarships go unclaimed – find out more about these and other truely unique graduate and undergraduate hearing scholarships today!

2008 Yukon XL
36 month / 15k mile/yr – residual 60%, 7.2%
plus $1,000 owner loyalty incentive.
Note: This lease sucks! 7.2%?!?! Plus the incentive is only for current GM owners. I have not seen any good deals coming out of GM as of late. Browsing through the newspaper this morning I saw a 2008 Cadillac STS for $399 a month + tax. Fine print: $5000 due at signing. Ridiculous!

The idea of "slow-TV" was there. For years live cameras have been showing bears hunt fish in rivers, birds nesting and rearing their chicks with viewers in the millions. A Discovery Channel series called "Earth Sunrise" recorded a full hour of realtime sunrise in spectacular locations from around the world. Recording of a total solar eclipse in Brazil and Turkey was quite a memorable event. Slow-TV concept is a paradigm invented by real-time nature observers. The Norwegian television producer Thomas Hellum pushes the slow TV idea into bigger events with interactive audience.
After the success of the 7 hour uninterrupted broadcasting of the Oslo-Bergen train line project in 2011, NRK decided to carry slow-TV concept into larger, longer and live interactive projects. NRK decided to make another full-length documentary on board a passenger ship (MS Nordnorge) belonging to the fleet of Hurtigruten ship company that has been operating along the Norvegian coast since 1893. The program is currently holding the world record of 134 hours spanning 5 days of "midnight sun" cruising. The following is a condensed 37 minute version of the full-length documentary from only one view of the many cameras used throughout the programming.
Slow TV has proved itself in Norway with multiple occasions. One of them was the live broadcast of the matches by the Norvegian chess master Magnus Carlsen who battled it out with Viswanathan Anand in 2014 Championship. The Norvegian state channel NRK broadcasted every single minute of the championship with extensive commentary. The viewing figures were unprecedented with more than 450,000 viewers (out of a population of five million) tuned in for a five-hour program on a Tuesday afternoon. The official hashtag #nrksjakk was the number one trending topic on Twitter in Norway every match day.
Thomas Hellum has worked at NRK Hordaland since 1992. He started as a lighting designer and moved into photography. After, he began to work as a documentary producer. In 2009, he became one of the driving forces behind the "Slow-TV" movement, filming and broadcasting challengingly long duration events live and turning them into a television program.
In 2008, Hellum won the Grand Prix Golden Prague at the International Television Festival in Prague for the documentary Ballad for Edvard Grieg, which tracked the composer's travels through Europe. He also won the Rose d'Or Award for The Sound of Ole Bull at the Rose d'Or Festival in Lucerne in 2012.

A copy of Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them resides in almost every wizarding household in the country. Now Muggles too have the chance to discover where the Quintaped lives, what the Puffskein eats and why it is best not to leave milk out for a Knarl.
Proceeds from the sale of this book will go to Comic Relief, which means that the pounds and Galleons you exchange for it will do magic beyond the powers of any wizard. If you feel that this is insufficient reason to part with your money, I can only hope that passing wizards feel more charitable if they see you being attacked by a Manticore.

First Impressions
I had been looking forward to a new Harry Potter book by J.K. Rowling to tide myself over until Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. With the adaptation of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them it seemed like the perfect time.
Impressions While Reading
Unfortunately, my expectations were not met in this small volume. Despite, Albus Dumbledore's introduction and Harry's notes scrawled in the margins it read like it was advertised — a textbook. The descriptions of said creatures were small. Only a few sentences for each and were typically already the description provided in the Harry Potter series. I would have prefered a longer book with more in-depth summary of let's say a Crumple-Horned Snorkack or a hippogriff but instead only got mediocre mentions.
Final Impressions
Harry Potter's additions were cute and a throwback to the seven books, mainly involving Hagrid, but they were few and far between and began to see why Harry was doodling in his book rather than paying attention. Personally, I would have found The Monster Book of Monsters much more interesting as unlike Fantastic Beasts, it would have had some bite to it.

Even though that is still a few months away, various leaks and notes from analysts have painted a picture of what we might be able to expect from the successor to the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.
Based on what we have heard, it sounds as if the changes will focus more on enhancing features such as the camera than on redesigning the phone's appearance.

Get fit in '06
For a healthier new year
"Get fit" is among the most popular New Year's resolutions in the U.S., and for many good reasons.
Exercise is a major health (and mood) booster. It helps the heart by raising the "good" HDL cholesterol levels, lowering blood pressure, reducing body fat, and strengthening the entire cardiovascular system. And research shows that even sporadic exercisers with low coronary risk (i.e., those who didn't smoke and had normal weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels) are less likely to die from any cause than those who didn't exercise at all during a 10-year study.
Exercise can also reduce the risk of developing dementia in people over 65, energize people who have diseases, and reduce the symptoms and changes brought on by menopause. And early birds who exercise in the morning have less trouble sleeping at night.
Short workouts are better than none, so you don't need to do a triathlon to gain an advantage. Try to do moderate aerobics, about 30 to 60 minutes, four to five times a week.
Here are some simple steps you can take to work out safely--and enjoyably--at this time of year.
Coping with the cold
Layer for warmth. In winter, exercise clothes should keep you warm and allow sweat to escape, and layers allow you to shed or add as needed. For underwear and socks, fabrics that whisk moisture away from the skin are best. Follow that with a middle layer of wool or synthetic fleece, and top it off with a nylon or breathable synthetic (such as Gore-Tex) wind- and water-resistant jacket. Cotton clothing retains moisture--an unwelcome companion.
Drink up. It's not just your thirst you'll satisfy. Water helps your body regulate temperature better, a vital thing when moving from warm indoor temperatures to cold outside.
Start slow. Jog or walk a few minutes, or slowly work your body through the movements you'll be making more strenuously later, gradually building your intensity. Walk around slowly afterward until your heart is near its resting rate.
See and be seen. If you work out before sunrise or after sunset, wear white or bright outer layers or a reflective vest, or even tack one of those blinking red lights onto yourself or your bike. (See our Ratings of bikes, available to ConsumerReports.org subscribers.)
Indoor options
Try toys. Dumbbells, resistance bands, stability balls and more are available to keep your workout humming, not humdrum.
Use a machine. If your wallet allows, a workout machine can help keep workouts interesting. For aerobic training, try a treadmill, bike, ski machine, or elliptical machine. For strength training, try a home gym. (See our Ratings of ellipticals, treadmills, and exercise bikes, available to ConsumerReports.org subscribers.)
Workout videos. The idea isn't new, but there's a lot of new content. You can choose from hundreds of available titles, and you can some from the video store or library before you buy.
Join a gym or sports league. Meet like-minded exercisers or play a sport you like in a structured, and more motivating, setting.
Take the stairs. Clean the house. Go for a walk. These basics can increase your heart rate and up your daily exercise quota.

quid pro quo [kwid proh kwoh] n Latin
1.) Something for something; that which a party receives (or is promised) in return for something he does or gives or promises
Quid Pro Quo is the bargain that every independent filmmaker who wants folks to come out to their movie (if they are lucky enough to get it into theaters) makes with every other indie filmmaker who gets their movie into theaters—I will see your movie and you will come see mine. Something for something. It's how an independent film community survives in a difficult marketplace for indie movies, and if we as filmmakers are not capable of holding up our end of the bargain, then there certainly won't be a theatrical outlet for indie films by the time our films are ready for the big screen.
"Quid Pro Quo" also happens to be an aptly titled indie film opening today that we filmmakers should all go out and support. And not just because of the Bargain, but also because it is an excellent movie. First time director Carlos Brooks teams up with veteran producers Midge Sanford and Sarah Pillsbury ("Desperately Seeking Susan," "River's Edge," many more) and a talented cast, (led by Nick Stahl and Vera Farmiga) to create an intriguing and unique mystery that is also in its way, very funny. It is beautifully shot by DP Michael McDonough (who incidentally shot Farmiga's break-out film "Down To The Bone") on the Sony F900 HD camera. Anyone who thinks you can't get a "film look" from high def video (are there still people who think that?) should check it out just to see the wonderful film noir lighting so well realized with this format.
"Quid Pro Quo" premiered at this year's Sundance to excellent reviews, but in this year's bone-crunching environment, where crowd-pleasing hits from Sundance and other festivals have found little traction, it is imperative that we jump to see this film the first weekend so it will be around long enough for word-of-mouth to kick in. And this is one you'll want to see on the big screen with a crowd.
So keep your promise—go see "Quid Pro Quo"!
"Quid Pro Quo" opens today at the Landmark in West LA.

Lessons & Observations from the Festival Circuit - PART 2
I go to Sundance and Toronto every year, (this was my 13th Sundance and this year's Toronto will be my 9th), and I usually cover the local LA festivals pretty extensively: LAFF, AFI Fest, Silver Lake Film Festival, Dances With Films, etc. But other than being invited to attend or being asked to participate on a jury, I don't generally stray to many smaller regional festivals. So it was an interesting experience to visit several this year with my film "True Love" and assess how they were doing and see what they were programming. Several observations have already been noted in PART 1—there are a bunch of specialty studio arms putting their films in these little festivals now, the press and audiences are flocking to those films (and their celebrities) first, some locally-made films garner press attention and audiences, (surely those who contributed to the project are there), and the overall quality of lesser-known films is higher than it was a few years ago. Something else I'm seeing is the star-directed film, where a famous, or at least relatively well-known actor directs a film and invites their star friends to be involved. There were several out on the trail this year: "Battle in Seattle" (directed by Stuart Townsend), "Then She Found Me" (directed by Helen Hunt), "The Cake Eaters" (directed by Mary Stuart Masterson), and an interesting little film called "Karl Rove, I Love You," directed by an often-seen, if not well-known character actor named Dan Butler, (you may remember him as "Bull" on TV's "Frasier"). Here are some of the films I caught over the last few months that are worth checking out, by festival:
* Method Fest - carving out a unique niche as a festival that focuses on the actor, Method Fest featured a number of performance-based films that I enjoyed. The quintessential film for this kind of festival may be "Choose Conner," written and directed by Luke Eberl. It wasn't hard to see why this film didn't make it into Sundance—quite frankly, it was pretty horribly shot and directed. What was so amazing about it was how much the good writing and good performances managed to save the day. I wouldn't normally denigrate a film here (if I don't like something, I just don't talk about it), but I think it's useful to once again point out how important good performances are to any film, especially ones made at the lowest budget levels. "Choose Conner" is ultimately a very good film. The story is told with honesty and subtlety, and the performances are across-the-board terrific, especially the young Alex Linz and the always dependable (but lately very slimy—in a good way) Steven Weber.
Another interesting film, the first of my faux/moc docs to speak of, is "Fix" directed by Tao Ruspoli. The film uses the conceit of two documentary filmmakers who have to take a family member to a rehab facility, and film the whole event with their cameras—everything you see is from that camera's perspective. If you're like me and you've seen this kind of thing in one form or another ad nauseum, then you probably get a little queasy just thinking about having to sit through another one. Well, the good news is that "Fix" transcends it's somewhat limited conceit is several interesting ways. The filmmakers have made a very dynamic piece that doesn't get trapped by its own strict rules; and it doesn't break those rules either, which is another pet peeve of mine. The perfs are strong and the camera work, by DP Chris Gallo, is excellent. If you have any doubts about the Panasonic HVX-200, see this film.
* Atlanta Film Festival - another faux doc, "The Project," which like "Fix" premiered at Slamdance, (if SXSW is the place where mumblecore films get programmed, Slamdance is the place faux docs get programmed); Sundance isn't really programming either of these kinds of films anymore, (with a couple of exceptions). Director Ryan Piotrowicz is a talented filmmaker who has done a wonderful job here. There's never a false note, in a film where false notes could be easily rendered, and the actors do a terrific job. A fake documentary about filmmakers who get too involved in their own film, this is the kind of film that would have played Sundance 10 years ago, but now seems a little "done." Doesn't take away from the fact that it is extremely well-"done".
Alex Karpovsky's mock doc "Woodpecker" was also incredibly well-done. One of those fake docs that's so realistic and so subtle that you never really know if it's fake or not, "Woodpecker's" strength lies in the film's central performance from Jon Hyrns, and in Karpovsky's confident direction. Perhaps a bit slow for most people's tastes, Karpovsky never lets the conceit get away from him, which is often the downfall of the phony documentary.
* WorldFest-Houston - amazingly, this is the third oldest film festival in the U.S. And you ask, why haven't I heard more about it? Well, that's a topic for another time. Interestingly, the number of film festivals across the country has exploded in just the last 15 years, going from two-digits to four-digits in that time. Don't believe me, just check the editions of the next festivals you apply to; most will be in their 5th year, or 10th year, but few will be in their 20th year. SXSW is in their 15 year; Tribeca is in their 8th year; AFI Dallas is only in their 2nd year. Back to WorldFest: "Before The Rains" is the kind of film I will often skip at a festival—big, expensive period piece not being distributed by a major company. Usually these films, well, suck. But this popular festival film, while not necessarily David Lean-like, was certainly well worth watching. Set in the Kerala region of India, the cinematography and landscape captured was just stunning. And the story, about a British imperialist who has an affair with a native Indian woman just before India's independence, had a bit of bite to it. This film is getting a limited release around the country by Roadside Attractions.
* Indianapolis International Film Festival - not to be confused with the "other" Indianapolis festival—Heartland—IIFF programs the real festival films: the tough artfilm; the depressing, but honest drama; and OK, also "Young @ Heart," (who didn't program it this year? These young festivals have to find ways to be around next year). One day I saw a trilogy of downbeat dramas back-to-back-to-back that will never get (substantive) releases, but will please hardcore art film fans nonetheless. And isn't that the point of a film festival? To program high quality films that we can't normally see at our multiplex, or even on cable? Well, that used to be the priority. It still is at IIFF.
JJ Lask's "On The Road With Judas" is an extremely unique film, one of those mind twisters. I missed maybe the first 30 seconds of it, but thought I'd missed more and had no idea what the fuck was going on. Turns out, you're really not supposed to know what's going on until the end. Very funny and interesting film with a strong ensemble cast.
Another little-seen Sundance feature at IIFF was "Chronic Town," director Tom Hines drama about the kinds of lost souls who wash up in Alaska, which featured a strong performance from lead JR Bourne. This was one third of my downbeat trilogy, which also included "Take" starring Minnie Driver as a mother who loses her son in a grocery store hold-up, and "This Beautiful City," director Ed Gass-Donnelly's ubiquitous hyperlink drama about troubled upper- and lower-class souls in Toronto.
Joachim Trier's "Reprise" was a bold feature debut that will be opening soon in the States and is well worth seeing for its unique and energetic visual style and narrative structure. "May the Best Man Win" was a somewhat slight, but mostly funny mock-doc about the competition between old friends vying to be their best buddy's Best Man. Adam Fleischhacker's film features many faces familiar to fans of Comedy Central and SNL.
There's nothing like attending three or four festivals in a row to teach you what kinds of films to be making and what kinds to be avoiding. If you don't have a star in your film and it can't be described in a provocative way in 1-2 sentences, good luck getting anybody in the theater. If you don't have an interesting production still for your key art, forget it. If your film doesn't have an obvious audience, or it's not an "issue" doc, or a horror film, or a comedy, or a horror/comedy, then you've got an uphill battle ahead of you. I'm not saying you should make a horror/comedy, I'm saying keep these points in mind when you start preparing your festival film. Then be unique, be bold.

Lessons & Observations from the Festival Circuit - PART 1
I've been out on the road—or as I like to call it, the "ole regional film festival trail"—with my feature "True Love." Whether you premiere in one of the major domestic festivals—Sundance, SXSW, Tribeca, LAFF—or not, you're likely to hit a number of regional festivals on your way to some kind of ultimate distribution. Of course, let's be clear, it's not a given that you will get into many of the smaller festivals, even if you've made a pretty good film. The competition is fierce, not only from the burgeoning number of new filmmakers forged by inexpensive production tools, but also from more established filmmakers and films, even those with big distributors, (more on that in a bit). Statistics from consultant and film festival programmer Thomas Ethan Harris state that a typical feature filmmaker spends nearly $3,500 on film festival submissions and only gets into around two festivals, on average. Another way of looking at it is that the average filmmaker gets into less than 10% of the festivals they apply to. My own experience with "True Love" confirms these numbers, and while my film may not be perfect, it's not a disaster either. It was a Sundance Screenwriters Lab project made by an award-winning director. The few reviews I've been able to garner have been strong and it has won a couple of awards already. But make no mistake, this is a tough game and it's getting tougher—it should be said that I had personal relationships with many of the festivals I didn't get into. The head of one of those festivals grew up down the street from me and was in my sister's wedding!
If you've got a good film and you apply enough, however, you will get into a few festivals. But then what do you do? Hopefully you will be invited to attend, meaning they will pay for your travel and accommodations. Some of the better funded festivals will do this automatically, and if they don't you should insist on it. As producer's rep and distribution consultant Peter Broderick says, if your film is at a festival and you aren't, it's like a tree falling in the forest. Your film becomes invisible; all the things that you may hope to reap from that festival appearance will not come your way unless you are there. This brings up one of the most important parts of festival strategy—setting goals. You need to have specific goals for what you hope to obtain going to all these festivals. Things like: securing distribution, collecting press quotes and festival laurels for your marketing materials, networking with other filmmakers and industry professionals, experiencing the joy (hopefully) of screening your film to a live audience, getting audience feedback for your film, finding fans who sign up to your website, meeting potential investors for your next project, seeing the world, having fun, drinking and eating for free, etc. Some of these things are more important to you than others, and some festivals will be able to deliver some of these things better than others. Without clearly defining these goals to yourself and working hard to achieve them, much of your festival experience will be a waste of time. You can't expect these things to just happen without a plan to make them happen, and a successful implementation of that plan.
So what are a few of the realities that I've discovered on my own festival sojourn?
1.) No matter how good the festival is, (how well organized they are, how strong their programming is, how good their projection is, etc.), they will have difficulty getting folks into your screenings. Now there are exceptions with certain festivals and certain films—Sundance, SXSW and some other festivals are known for sell-out houses; and some films for a variety of reasons pack them in, ("Dance Of The Dead"—a locally-shot comedy/horror film sold out three performances at the recent Atlanta Film Festival)—but the grim reality for most regional festivals is that it is very hard to get butts into seats, especially if your film is a "relationship drama" or something as hook-lacking as that.YOU
have to help get people into your screenings. Apply to fests where you have some connection to the town, work on getting press for your film, blanket the place with postcards (a very good place to order postcards is Digital Room) and 11 x 17 posters that you can print for cheap at Kinko's, network the hell out of the place, whatever. There is nothing more demoralizing than standing in front of four people when they introduce your film; and nothing happens if nobody sees it.
2.) Publicity is HARD! Getting something written about your film in the local paper is next to impossible, especially if you don't have stars and didn't win a prize at Sundance. I probably don't have to tell you what's happening to newspapers across the country—they're laying off their staff, especially local film reviewers. When I got to Houston, my hometown, to screen "True Love" at WorldFest-Houston, I found the Houston Chronicle—the only daily in the fourth largest city in the country—had just laid off Bruce Westbrook, a 20 year veteran, and was down to one critic, who WASN'T covering the festival! (The third oldest in the U.S.). The free weekly "alternative" paper, The Houston Press, hasn't had a local film reviewer in years; they only run wire reviews. Good luck getting a preview or review in that environment. Some festivals have galvanized the community and have gotten the local newspapers behind them (Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival in Birmingham, AL or AFI Dallas, for instance), but beware! The films that are going to get the most attention are 1.) locally-made films 2.) films with stars who will be in attendance, and 3.) films distributed by major distribution companies, who employ full-time publicists. Wait, we're talking about regional festivals, right? Why are these films in regional festivals? Welcome to the new film marketing math—big distributors have discovered a new cost-effective marketing strategy for their indie-oriented films—regional festivals. (Read John Horn's recent LA Times article). I've been running into the same festival hogs at all the festivals I've attended this year: "Son Of Rambow" (Paramount Vantage), "Young @ Heart" (Fox Searchlight), "The Visitor" (Overture Films), "Then She Found Me" (THINKFilm), "Mongol" (Picturehouse), and several others. They get all the newspaper ink. They've got one-sheet posters and hundreds of 11x17 posters splattered all over the place. They enjoy all the benefits a multi-million dollar distribution campaign can amass. Shit, I've got $20 to market my film at the Atlanta Film Festival! And even worse, these films' veteran stars are winning the acting prizes at some of these festivals. What's a $50,000 feature with a no-name cast to do?
3.) Spend whatever it takes to screen your film on tape. Yes, most smaller festivals are offering the opportunity to screen your film on DVD-R, but if they offer Digibeta or some other tape format, spend the money to get your film on it. Listen, this is the No Budget Film School guy telling you this. I don't believe in wasting money, even at the end of the process, but if it's Digibeta, I'm sure you can find someone to pull you a favor, (HDCAM is another thing). And this isn't only because the quality will be better. I can't tell you how many times I've witnessed films stop in the middle, or throw up all manner of digital artifacts, when they've screened on DVD. Twice at one festival they couldn't show a preceding short film at all because it wouldn't play, (another reason to be in attendance).
4.) Uniqueness is king. I say it all the time in my classes. Uniqueness is the most important quality a festival film can have. Uniqueness is the reason your film gets into Sundance or SXSW. Uniqueness trumps talent and competence, (although it certainly helps to have all three). Genres to stay away from: mock or faux documentaries, first-person camera films, hyperlink films, (where there are multiple intersecting characters and stories), to name a few. I've seen several well-made mock/faux docs this year, and none of them were at Sundance. This is a genre that was pass? for Sundance 10 years ago. Doesn't mean these films aren't well-made or entertaining, but they're not unique enough to get accepted now. And without that Sundance stamp of approval, even good films have a hard time getting into smaller festivals, attracting a sizable audience, or garnering substantive press.
COMING SOON: PART 2 - Some of the good films I've seen out on the Trail…

The Six No-Budget Lessons of "Be Kind Rewind"
As a teacher and student of no-budget filmmaking "theory," and as a producer in pre-production on another impossible-to-shoot-on-no-money film, I'm really glad I saw "Be Kind Rewind" tonight. The Michel Gondry-directed film proved to be utterly inspirational. Not the movie itself, mind you—it was made for millions of dollars—but rather the little films made within the film. For those of you living under a rock, (certainly none of you loyal Film Radarites), the premise of the film is that Jack Black's character Jerry accidentally erases all of the VHS movies in the video store managed by his friend Mike (Mos Def), and the two budding filmmakers scramble to replace the store's inventory with homemade versions of the films they erased, which they shoot themselves on an old RCA VHS camera. Soon the entire community, who come to love the new versions, become actively involved in the making of the films as well—think of it as user-generated video if there were no internet and no YouTube. "Be Kind Rewind" ("BKR") has many valuable lessons to teach us no-budget filmmakers…
1.) You Don't Need Money to Make Something That's "Good" and That Resonates with an Audience. This of course is the overriding lesson of the film. In an age of generic, formulaic studio filmmaking, this lesson will always continue to ring true.
2.) Production Value Is Overrated. I've said this in my classes a hundred times and I even wrote an article about it for Film Arts Magazine last year. The script and story are super important, the performances are super important, but the production value only needs to be "good enough."Good enough works well enough. Some aspects of production value, such as good production sound, are vitally important to certain films—dramatic, dialogue-heavy films for instance—so the bar for "good enough" for production sound is high for this kind of film. Other aspects of production value, like costumes, may not be as critical, so the actors wearing their own clothes may be good enough to work. The key idea to remember, and the one that "BKR" illustrates so wonderfully, is that every good no-budget film has an organic evenness
to it. Perhaps, like with the little films within the film of "BKR," all the stunts, props, set pieces, etc. are of uniform low quality. This can work! It's when you break the uniformity that the audience notices that the other elements are in fact sub-par. Think of "Clerks" and it's production values, even the quality of its performances. They're low quality, but it works, right? Now think of that exact same movie, but shot in 35mm anamorphic color—now it doesn't work so much. (OK, I know what you're thinking—it becomes "Mallrats"!).
3.) A Small, Committed Team with a Hell or High-Water Commitment is More Valuable Than Money. It takes people to make movies, not money. Even if you have all the money in the world, you've got to pay people to make your movie—either because they are going to work in it or on it, or they are going to rent or sell you something used to make it. So if you don't have the money, but you've got the people, people who all share the same passion and drive to make the film, you're golden. And just like in "BKR", it takes a village. Oftentimes, (unless you live in LA), you can enroll your community to make a film. The no-budget "August Evening," winner of the Cassavetes Award at this year's Spirit Awards, was made with the help of the citizens of Gonzales, Texas, who lent their establishments, donated props and costumes, cooked meals for the crew, and volunteered to work on the movie. Oh, and guess what one of the ready-made audiences for the film is?
4.) There Are Always No-Budget Alternatives to Any Piece of Gear. The amateur filmmakers in "BKR" fashion a variety of homemade surrogates for gear they could never afford to procure. Need a crane shot? Mount the camera to the bucket of an excavator. Need a nice panning shot, but don't have a tripod? Strap the camera to a rotating fan. OK, these techniques were used for comic effect, but there are so many examples of creativity and ingenuity employed by these guys—make-shift sets, props, costumes, special effects, stunts—that you begin to realize there is always another way to get something done. Yes, Virginia, when there's a will, there's a way.
5.) Know Your Audience. The film demonstrates there's an audience for everything. They may not be easy to find or easy to aggregate, but you should always be thinking: Who They Are, How Many Are There, and How Easy Are They To Get. The great thing about this Core Audience for your film is,they don't care how good your movie is
. As long as it speaks to them, as long as it is compelling and authentic to their own experience, they will enjoy it. And they'll tell their friends about it. Your core audience may be small, but that's OK—you're making a no-budget movie. You don't need a huge audience to be fiscally responsible. And if you can actually get your money back on your movies, then you can go out and make more. And that devoted audience will follow you to the next movie. This idea is wonderfully realized in "BKR."
6.) Nothing Can Replace The Theatrical Experience. Sure, cable and DVD's are nice—it's comfortable and affordable to watch movies at home. But that doesn't compare to the experience of seeing a film on the big screen with an audience sharing that experience with you. We're social creatures. Ultimately we long to connect with other human beings. Movies have always been an incredibly powerful way to define and bind people. Sharing with strangers the emotions we feel when we watch a movie give substance to those feelings, and turn those strangers around us into a community. Of course, this is exactly what I am trying to do with my No Budget Film Club, define and build a community around no-budget films. You as filmmakers have the potential to create communities when you make your films, and when we're all in the same room with each other enjoying your film, it's an incredibly satisfying experience.
There are many other lessons we can take from "BKR" as filmmakers—go check it out and discover a few of your own!

Making My Introduction
Dear Film Radar Members,
I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know that I will be blogging here from time to time. I'm Mark Stolaroff, and I'm an LA-based producer and the founder of No Budget Film School, a unique series of film classes specifically designed for the no-budget filmmaker, whether they're working with a budget of $200,000 or $2,000. I'll be using this forum to pass along information and spout off my opinion on any number of film-related subjects, usually tied somehow to no-budget filmmaking, which is my passion. I urge all of you film fans out there to support this kind of filmmaking when you have the opportunity to do so—attend festivals, seek out these titles on Netflix, and most of all, visit your local cineplex when one of these films makes that nearly-impossible, herculean journey to the big screen. And for all you aspiring filmmakers out there, don't wait to make your movies. The tools have never been so accessible and the opportunities to get your works seen have never been so ripe. Just be responsible—it's difficult to make a good movie and very difficult to make money on it even when you do. But money shouldn't be the metric for success, and there are strategies and techniques that can not only allow you to make a movie right now with the resources available to you today, but that will also give you the best chance to create something memorable, compelling, authentic, and entertaining.
Join me here and also feel free to visit my website:
I am working to make the site one of the best resources for no-budget filmmaking on the web. You'll find archived editions of my No Budget Report and No Budget Newsletter, (which you can subscribe to); links to useful online and offline resources, clips from some of the guest speakers I've had in my classes, profiles of noteworthy no-budget films, (many taken from exclusive interviews with the filmmakers), and of course, information about the classes I teach.
You'll also find information about my ongoing screening series, No Budget Film Club, where you get the opportunity to see great no-budget films—some you've heard of, others you haven't—with the filmmakers in attendance to give the candid lowdown on how the films were made. All the dirty little secrets! I work hard to make these events fun and educational, as well as an incredible chance to network with other like-minded independent filmmakers.
Looking forward to sharing my enthusiasm and knowledge of this unique kind of filmmaking with you here on a regular basis!

This is one of those recipes I'll be using again and again. I've tried several other biscuit recipes, and I always come back to my tried and true version. The addition of Gainey Vineyard's special seasoning just sends these things over the top. Warmed up with butter??? Absolute Heaven :)
Cheesy Herb Biscuits
2 c. flour (plus more for dusting)
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
7 Tbsp. butter, very cold
1 c. sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 Tbsp. Gainey Vineyard Rosemary & Garlic Seasoning
1 c. milk
1 Tbsp. butter, melted
Preheat oven to 400°.
Sift flour, baking powder and salt into mixing bowl.
Using a cheese grater, grate butter and add it to the bowl.
Work butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or two knives in scissor fashion. Combine until butter is fully incorporated and no large pieces remain.
Add seasoning mix and grated cheese. Stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
Pour in milk and stir until mixture forms a dough.
Turn dough out onto floured surface and continue mixing all ingredients together by hand. (Don't overwork dough). Use the palms of your hands to gently spread dough out. Fold dough back over itself to create layers adding flour as needed.
Cut biscuits out with small biscuit cutter. Place onto a baking sheet (or in cast iron skillet). Brush the tops with melted butter. Bake 20-22 minutes.

Discuss how Proctor's affair impacts the way people see him.
- print Print
- list Cite
I don't think that the start of the drama shows people's perceptions about Proctor changing due to his affair. I think that it is known, but it is not something where he is viewed like Hester Pyrnne from The Scarlet Letter is viewed. Parris realizes "something" transpired between Abigail and Proctor. This is evident in the first scene where he is asking her questions about why she was dismissed. Proctor is perceived as "different" from others in Salem because of who he is. He does not live in the town, but rather on a farm outside of it. He is outspoken and not very willing to acquiesce or to conform to the expectations of others. He has a reputation for a short fuse, to an extent, and his physical size makes his predisposition to using force something that helps to cause the perception of him being outside the norm. This is not something that is enhanced by the affair, as it is not something of which there is immediate discussion. It is known, we presume, but it is not something that defines him. In fact, we only really know the full extent of how others feel about it during the trial in Act III, when Francis Nurse is floored by Proctor's admission. At the start of the drama, this is not as evident.

Cobb Plus Saddle
Whether you are a triathlete, roadie, TT specialist, weekend warrior, or anything in between, the Cobb Plus saddle might just be your best choice. This is Cobb's best seller for both male and female riders. It is designed with 10% firmer memory style foam compared to the V-Flow to accommodate any size rider. This saddle is sure to provide you with long lasting comfort and substantial pressure relief across any distance bike ride. The Synthetic cover offers 100% UV protection against sun damage, and 100% waterproof protection against foam rot due to sweat loss or rainy days.
Key features include under seat Airflow management for improved chamois ventilation. There is a specially formulated memory foam for all day comfort and to maintain blood flow. The Plus has a molded in, seat base design to help cradle and hold the rider, relieving lower back pain and a relief design to help eliminate numbness. An increased foam thickness creates a relief channel to further eliminate numbness.
With the use of a Form Sensor Aray TekScan unit, Cobb was able to plot the exact skin pressure points over the areas that riders use. The narrow rear section is especially great at relieving pressure from the hamstring muscle and the upper adductors. These pressure points are two of the leading causes of leg cramps and lower back pain.
Men need room for their upper legs to be able to swing further back on the saddle, especially while riding on aero bars or on the drops. Seats that have a wide rear area force the rider to move forward on the narrow nose of the seat, which is not comfortable and leads to very high Perineal nerve bundle area stress. Cobb's testing showed that the proper seat shape and width offer the support and comfort needed for high mileage, comfortable cycling.
John Cobb is Internationally famous for his work with cyclists in wind tunnels. He has spent time developing the bottom side of these saddles to help guide the air to help the cyclist with more comfort. Keeping the riders' chamois dry greatly reduces saddle sores and seat rashes. The internal base of the seat is another innovative area that helps cradle the rider for further relief of lower back stress. The swayback design gently holds the rider's torso so that he or she doesn't constantly slide forward and back on the seat. As the rider pedals with more pressure, the VFlow cradle gives a front support zone that the rider can pull against for increased power.

What's in Your Pack?
Here's a list of 12 things you should have in your pack when you forge into the backcountry even for a day hike. Especially if you're bringing the kids along, you want to be prepared for every eventuality short of the apocalypse. Because you are big and strong, you'll carry the lion's share of the gear and maybe some extra water for thirsty kids. Children can't carry too much, but if they're old enough—say seven–have them carry a small pack with a snack, water, raincoat, safety whistle, small headlamp, and an emergency blanket (a big black plastic garbage will suffice).
In addition to the list below, I like to bring along a poop kit (little orange poop shovel, some toilet paper, baby wipes, antiseptic, and small plastic bags for packing out TP). If I don't, nature will call on one of my kids, and the need will be instant and urgent.
___First-aid kit
___Matches and emergency tinder
___Emergency blanket or large trash bag
___Map and compass
___Safety whistle
___Headlamp or flashlight
___Extra layers
___Rain gear
___Pocket knife
___Sunglasses and sunscreen

Teriyaki Sauce is a Staple. It can be kept in your fridge for a long time. The only thing that will happen is the sugars and the spices will settle, so it will need to be stirred every single time you use it. I can come up with a recipe for you, any size, to accommodate however many people you are serving. Or, you can mix up a batch and keep it in your fridge for on going use. Its equal parts of three ingredients and then spices. So depending on how much you need, it can be 1/4 cup, 1/4 cup, 1/4 cup or 1 cup, 1 cup, 1 cup.The sauce is the one we used to toss our Teriyaki Chicken wings in. It's the sauce we used to make our stir frys with. It is really able to be used in many different ways. You can marinate chicken or beef in it and then grill. You can baste salmon with it while it's cooking. The thing about this sauce thats great, is that it can be thickened into a glaze. So, if you want grilled marinated chicken or grilled Salmon. You can finish it with a sauce that sticks and glistens on your entree. It will taste and look very appetizing. This sauce also works very well with the addition of chunky Peanut butter and heavy cream and then thickened. Just a note about Soy sauce, I do not like the really black kind(Lachoy)for this recipe, it is really salty and too dark in color. The fresh brewed by kikkoman is not as salty and has a much milder flavor. You could use low sodium too.
Teriyaki Sauce
In a large container
1 c. white wine or white zinfandel
1 c. Kikkoman brewed Soy Sauce (be sure NOT to use Kikkoman Teriyaki sauce, that is already mixed with sugar and seasoned)
1 c. packed brown sugar
2 tsp. ginger powder
1 tsp. granulated garlic
1/2 tsp. black pepper
Use a whisk and mix well. Mix well before scooping each time. This would be added at the very end when making a stir fry and thickened to a glaze.
Teriyaki Glaze
grab a small fry pan or pot.
ladle in as much as you want to thicken. Bring it to a simmer.
In a seperate bowl, mix up some cornstarch and water.
Add one teaspoon of cornstarch at a time and whisk until it reaches the desired consistency.
I just made the thickened version.
1 cup of teriyaki sauce (cold)
1 tbsp cornstarch
Mix together and pour into a sauce pan, bring to a boil and thicken. Set aside for your wings or whatever you want to slather it onto.

There are a variety of accredited business programs that may appeal to you. Advertising, accounting, human resources, and business management are just a few options. Concentrating on SUNY Rockland computer science degree, for example, you may gain an advantage in corporate recruiting being done on-campus. Check with the computer programming department for course registration deadlines, and software programming program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for SUNY Rockland.
Businesses of all types have a profound need for talented software specialists. Programmers often start out with a bachelor's degree in computer science or software engineering, followed by intensive on-the-job training. Computer science (CS) degree programs may cover diverse programming languages, depending on the application involved. For example, the C# language combines the robustness of C++ with the advanced features of JAVA programming. The C# language is most easily compiled within Visual Studio IDE, a rapid-development platform. If you are writing a web-based application in ASP.NET, you will be required to code in C# or Visual Basic for the backend.
Software developers also need skills related to the industry in which they work. Developers working in a bank, for example, should have knowledge of finance so that they can understand a bank's computing needs. On the other hand, the JAVA language may be used to develop enterprise-level applications and accelerate the design of video games or iOS/Android mobile apps. By way of comparison, some large websites that make use of the Python language include Pinterest and Instagram. In fact, many CS students gain hands-on experience in software development by completing a business internship at a software company while still in college. The median annual wage for computer programmers was $90,530 in May 2017. Beyond major requirements within the computer programming department, you may consider South Dakota State University online undergraduate classes as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.
