Motorcycle Safety in Florida
Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach Offices serving all of Florida
In the United States, there are over 6 million registered motorcycles. With gas prices getting higher, motorcycles are becoming a more ideal way to travel for millions of Americans. After all, motorcycles are cheaper to purchase and maintain, and of course, have excellent fuel efficiency.
Despite the bonuses of riding them, they also have one serious drawback: their motorcycle safety. Motorcycles are representative of approximately 11 percent of the crash-related fatalities in the United States each year, while motorcycles only represent 3 percent of the total number of registered vehicles in the United States.
Cars and trucks have more body mass than a motorcycle. They have additional safety features that protect their drivers and passengers, while a motorcycle rider is completely exposed and without any form of protection.
As a motorcycle rider, it is imperative you protect yourself on the roads because others will not be doing it for you. By practicing motorcycle safety, you may be able to reduce the likelihood of an accident.
We have following locations to serve you:
- Boca Raton
- Delray Beach
- Pompano Beach
- West Palm Beach
Essential Motorcycle Safety Tips for Florida Motorcycle Riders
As a motorcycle rider, you are at risk for serious, if not fatal, injuries. While you cannot control other drivers on the road, there are things you can do to limit your risk. One of the most important is being aware of what causes motorcycle accidents in Florida, which include:
Visibility Issues – Motorcycle accidents often occur in Florida because the car or truck driver didn't realize there was a bike rider there. Motorcycles are much smaller than vehicles; therefore, it is hard for them to stay out of a vehicle's blind spot. By using your headlights, you may be able to increase your visibility even during the day.
Inexperienced Riders – Many motorcycle riders do not have the experience they think they do. Most do not realize how quickly they need to maneuver in traffic and they also do not realize the limitations of their bikes. It is best to hone your abilities and not venture into conditions you are not yet experienced to ride in, such as riding on the freeway after only riding for a few days.
Driving under the Influence of Drugs or Alcohol – Just as with motor vehicles, riders should never get on their motorcycle while impaired. Driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol could make it difficult to react properly in certain riding situations, reduce your attentiveness, and lead to extreme accidents.
Speeding – Motorcycle riders should never speed. As a rider, you are responsible for following the rules of the road just like cars; therefore, look out for posted speed limit signs and adhere to them. Speeding is one of the most common reasons motorcycle riders lose control of their bikes and crash.
Lane Changing – When you go to change a lane, always be on the lookout for cars. Cars never look for motorcycles; therefore, they may not see you changing lanes. Signal before changing a lane and if you can, and make eye contact with the driver alongside you so they know you are changing lanes, too.
Road Conditions – Motorcycles do not have the same tractions as motor vehicles; therefore, they shouldn't be treated as the same. If you have limited riding experience, do not ride on roads with debris, under construction, etc. All it takes is a small inconsistency in the road to make you lose control of your bike.
Tailgating – You should never tailgate – whether you are in a car or riding a motorcycle. Tailgating puts you at risk for injury and if you were to rear end the vehicle in front of you, you could be thrown from your bike. If a car is tailgating you, move over to the next lane so they can pass rather than risk having them rear-end you on your bike.

Since the film Doing Time, Doing Vipassana, which tells about the emotional turnover prisoners and guards went through in an Indian prison, there have been plenty of meditation programs in the US for prisoners.
The program at the Donaldson Correctional Facility is different. For one thing, it's the first maximum security prison in North America to hold a ten-day silent Vipassana retreat. Anyone who's participated in a silent retreat knows how intense they can be. You don't say anything, don't look at anyone, you wake up around 5 am, and do sitting meditation for most of the day. It doesn't seem like something that would have a lot of success in a prison. But the responses from men at Donaldson who went through it show that's not true.
In "Prison Monks," an article by Amre Klimchak, we read that "several inmates reveal they were doubtful that the technique would have an impact on them. But one by one, they each explain how their deep-seated fears and old anger comes to the surface, in what their teachers call a "storm," and they express remorse for their offenses." ("Prison Monks" by Amre Klimchak)
This video tells a little about their experiences.

|Date :
|Venue :
|GCCI Board Room
|Description :
Increasing concerns over climate change and energy have propelled the topics of energy and the environment to the forefront of the global agenda. In the early 21st century, we find ourselves at an important crossroads, grappling with daunting questions that will determine the future of the entire globe. There is a constant need to increase the economic growth that has pulled millions out of poverty, and at the same time develop and implement clean and affordable technologies that will not damage the environment. With a view to share ideas in the renewable energy sector, an interactive meeting had been organized by the Energy Committee of Gujarat Chamber of Commerce & Industry (GCCI) with Shri Sudhi Ranjan Mohanty, IAS, Principal Secretary, New & Renewable Energy Department, and Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP). Shri Kanubhai Patel, GCCI Hon. Secretary (Regional), Shri Jyotindrabhai Patel, GCCI Energy Committee Chairman, Shri Nayan Parikh, esteemed members of GCCI Energy Committee were present during the interaction.
Mr. Mohanty highlighted the ambitious plans of GoMP for renewable power capacity in the coming years to provide a framework for sustainable future. The plan envisages capacity augmentation of more than 2600MW by June 2014 through renewable sources. He unveiled the state's solar, wind and biomass favorable power policies that have opened up various avenues for investment in the state. The generic benefits under these policies include no electricity cess & duty for 10 years, 2% wheeling charges, third party sale, 100 % banking, contract demand reduction permitted, stamp duty exemption (50%) on purchase of private land, no VAT, no water charges, entry tax exempted, no land related exemption, no local body approvals, no surprise inspection on project related issue, single window clearance, etc. Considering the fact that surplus land which is not cultivable, with average solar radiation of 5.2 to 6.2 kWh/ sq.m/ day is a pointer in huge solar potential to the state, GoMP has identified around 1,000 acres of land in Neemuch district of the state to set up India's biggest solar power plant that is expected to generate about 130 MW of power. The wind power potential has been assessed to be around 2,931MW at 80m hub height and the gross potential of energy generation from agricultural waste has been projected at 1386MW in the state. Among the recent initiatives to promote renewable energy includes the solar park policy, policy for setting up wind power project in tribal areas, infrastructure up gradation, continuous policy updating and resource assessment, etc.
The meeting ended with a vote of thanks by Shri Jyotindrabhai Patel, Chairman, Energy Committee.

As per a report published by Analysys Manson which examines the ways in which the small or medium sized enterprises can cut technology costs quickly, small enterprises employees should use mobile broadband USB sticks and data cards when traveling in order to save their businesses GBP2145 each year rather than relying on Wi-Fi hotspots. The report which was entitled small enterprises save money with mobile broadband which was published ahead of Mobile World Congress 2010, Barcelona, showed that each employee who keeps traveling throughout the year can save Wi-Fi hotspots charges till GBP700.
SMEs have a chance to choose the highly competitive offerings which may be with or without contracts from the providers like O2, BT, 3, Orange, Virgin, T-Mobile and Vodafone. More ubiquitous coverage and reliability is offered by the mobile broadband services when compared to Wi-Fi hotspots. Though the access speeds lag than those found at most hotspots.

HORRIFIC scenes were witnessed by passersby in Glasgow's city centre yesterday.
But the zombies that overran Washington Street, thankfully, weren't real – the blood-soaked streets were just part of a set for a new low budget film, Zombie Apocalypse.
As as the undead advanced, extras portraying members of the public were seen scurrying across the street in an effort to deal with the outbreak.
Amid flaming cars and dead bodies, soldiers advanced towards the zombies firing blank weapons.

Traffic restrictions on Washington Street, Balaclava Street and McAlpine Street were put in place yesterday, but have now been lifted.
A council spokesman told teh Daily Record: "To help promote the film and broadcast industry in Glasgow – which has contributed well over £250million to the city's economy since it was formed in the late 1990s – our Glasgow film office works with productions to ensure filming goes as smoothly as possible while minimising any impact on residents and businesses.
"A number of major movies filmed in Glasgow in recent years have not only boosted Glasgow's economy, but showcased the city around the world."
It's not the first time the undead have made an appearance in Glasgow, of course – Brad Pitt brought a crew to Glasgow's George Square to film another zombie horror, World War Z, in 2011.

Blazing Cat Fur
Just in time for Halloween:
Sounds reasonable!
I wish I could give this two likes. Meeeoowww!!!
Black cats jaunt; tabbies scuttle.
Ours slink along on the road at the curbside, from car shadow to car shadow.
My black cat Elvis, AKA Fluffenheimer, AKA Leadbelly, wholeheartedly agrees he is the bestest.
I love my black cat, but she's a scaredycat as are many blacks, genetically. That, i imagine, has something to do with them being scapegoated, to mix metaphors.
my black female is the same a daddys girl , her tuxedo sister is a little git ! half the pigeons near me have a bald ass due to her
I am told that black cats are misunderstood ninjas.
I've got two black cats. I wouldn't have it any other way.
After 42 years of marriage and eight dogs, 26 cats, all beloved, most lived more than 15 years, we just adopted a lovely little black kitten, and yes, most of the unadoptables in the SPCA were black. Minerva at 3 months has told the dog and old cat this is where she lives now and they accept and are fascinated by her kitten craziness. it is so much more fun than TV. A Cheerios box opened at both ends, a paper bag are more interesting than bought toys although the chasing round the mouse toy for 2 hours made me dizzy. Now our dog Maximus, is having a ball with Minerva, after the death of his best friend, a new lease on life. Now we have Maxi and Mini' who I hope will be best friends for life. Knowing now what I do, I will encourage people to adopt black cats. And volunteer at humane societies to help out.
Well. We have a petite Bombay mom (black w/ gold/green eyes) and two of her grown kittens; large plushtoy soft version of her mom and her nearly all black semi-tuxedo sturdy brother.
Oh, and an older black schnauzer that leads all the walks because the cats believe the walks are for them as much as they are for the dog. It's a parade.

The second floor has 5 guestrooms and a bathroom. The Yew's guest rooms are done in old-fashioned floral wallpaper and have oil lamps. The bathroom in the Yew does have electricity.

Hi —
I am working on something for a local charity and they have always used a Mac font called Adriatic.
I use PC — not Mac — but also use Crossfont to convert Mac fonts to PC but no one has been able to give me a font file — and I cannot find the font anywhere
It was created by NovelFonts! Corp but I cannot locate them either
Can anyone help me?
Mac Font = Adriatic - Need a copy of font file
Primary tabs
Hi —
Yep, we 've got it. We can't remember where it came from but we've got it.
It's on a CD called Expresiv Fonts/Ornate Fonts collection…
Um, I'll bite. So we've got this mystery CD that's been around our office since the dawn of time and obviously, we don't know what the deal is license-wise… quite possibly, my partner bought it on eBay…
would it be inappropriate/illegal for me to offer to email Kate the font, should she be unable to otherwise acquire it?
Why even go through the hassle of putting it on eBay?
email me …
Sorry to revisit this post from 2004, but when searching for the font Adriatic in google this post is the only result. Does anyone know where I can purchase this font or where it is available?
Hi Mike,
in case you are looking for alternatives, have a look at this thread: http://www.typophile.com/node/47363
I'm fascinated by this design. Could it be the result of using Font Chameleon to interpolate Times and Meridien? Or even doing the interpolation in Fog or Flab? It definitely seems to be that kind of sub-intentional novelty. Who did it? When? Some forgotten drudge?
Thanks Florian,
I will start using an alternative for new stuff and try and transition all of the existing files over.
But if any one does see this and knows/finds out where Adriatic can be purchased, either mac or pc, I don't care, please post to this thread and let us all know.
Thanks again,
Nobody seems to know anything about this font; it appears to be abandonware, and rightly so.
However, I seem to have located a Mac copy, so anyone who wants it, mail me, with the proviso of course that if we ever find out there is a legitimate rightsholder, all the right things will be done. As there is so little information available, it seems unlikely. The copyright info lists "Novel Fonts! Corporation" (exclamation not excluded). This appears to be a very difficult-to-find entity.
One thing surprises me: the data points are astonishingly good.
Hi, billtroop. We recently inherited a project that also requires this typeface. A quick Google search came up with this thread. I can't see a way to email you, but if you could find it in your heart to send along a copy of the typeface to me, I'd sure appreciate it!
It's in the mail. Isn't it astounding that nobody knows its provenance? I wish I still had a working copy of Font Chameleon - - I swear it's an interpolation of Times and Meridien. As I said before, the digitization is most remarkably clean, adding to the mystery.
Hi billtroop,
Much like mikegeek, I stumbled across this thread via a Google search. I've inherited a project that uses Adriatic as the primary font for this company's identity, and much like everyone else in this thread, I cannot find it any where. Could I possibly get a copy of the font? It would be extremely appreciated. Thanks kindly!
What an astonishing piece of crap! And a company uses this as an identity?
Bill, it is way too Latin for the interpolation you're suggesting.
Ryan, it's in the mail. Will I be remembered to type history as the fence for this notorious font?
James, that was just a wild guess. Given that the digitization is very clean, very competent, can you possibly guess how or by whom this font might have been created? I wonder if Rich Roat would know . . . . I wish I had a working copy of Chameleon - - . . . . anyway, you must admit it is attention-getting.
Hey, I also need the Adriatic font...I am on a PC so if you can send me a copy in pc...perfect. If not, would you please send it in an sitx file?
Thank you!!
I remember the "Expresiv Fonts" collections from the mid-90s. They were at least two, and perhaps three or more, all of pretty poor quality as I recall (and certainly this one bears that out). I have a vague recollection of examining them for a project I was considering in late 1994 or early 1995 involving cataloging knockoffs. (Which I abandoned for several reasons, including that such information could be used for evil as well as good.)
A little checking shows that FontChameleon 1.0 was getting reviewed in May 1994, so dates seem about right. However, in the sample shown above, the lack of overshoot, the exaggerated serif length, the serif shapes, and the "jiggly" tops of certain letters are all inconsistent with the results of using FontChameleon in the process of creating the font. Remember, FontChameleon would blend *all* the features at the elemental/particulate level, not just take some features from each of the two fonts. This is much more like the latter approach.
Some of the features could have been done by taking something output from FontChameleon and then doing lots of editing... but you wouldn't likely lose the overshoots of the rounds that way. So, I think it's just a badly executed font. (Not that the concept was necessarily bad... can't remember if this sort of thing had already been done to death back then.)
I must get to sleep now.
Thomas is right, I have been trying to remember what Chameleon blends were like, and it is true that you would never get these effects. I wish we could all play with Chameleon again, I shall have to set up a Win95/98 machine or something. It's amazing how tasteful the results are -- and how ultimately useless. Does anyone remember if Chameleon 2 was ever released, with ascender/descender control? I don't think I ever had that version. So could this be the result of a simple PS blend? Perpetua and Modern? (grasping at straws) -- or what about some of the neat built-in and programmable effects in Fontlab 2/2.5?
Thread drift!
I am not sure about Chameleon 2... I might be confusing it in my head with 1.5 which was definitely released. That's the version which added italics support. But neither David nor I remembers a later version of the retail product being on the market.
(Side note: internally in the Chameleon editor the way the italics worked was kinda whack. They were actually edited in upright form, and then slanted at the last minute. This was pretty workable for trying to make an italic that imitated an existing "normal" font because you'd start by unslanting it and sticking it in the background. But if you wanted to use Chameleon as a means of creating a new design, well, it was a pretty bizarre way to work with your italics.)
Hi billtroop, looks like your the only man on the internet that has the answer. Can you drop the font to me in email, firstname.lastname@example.com and if anyone finds a rightsholder please let me know.
Thanks a ton,

Design is society and society is design. It observes society, analyzes it and returns to it objects that relate to her. A network of relationships necessary and usual for one and the other is established. By society we understand today the community of individuals and the mechanisms and tools that it moves and by design, the frame of the warp which forms the final piece. We need to know the individual, understand their behavior and how it relates to your physical and emotional environment and understand the design so that individual develops to meet the social scarcities. Man needs of design in its dependence on space, with objects and their relationship with other individuals, that is, in their mode of communication. For this reason to project is to design but to design is much more than to project.

Congressman John Carter (R-TX31) is releasing the following statement regarding the Senate invoking the "nuclear option," changing Senate rules on the filibuster for most presidential nominations:
"The Senate Democrats' consequential decision to trigger the "nuclear option' not only continues to foster a political environment of distrust and division, but alters nearly 225 years of precedent. Harry Reid has continued to muddy the water and widen the gap between parties. It is this kind of hypocritical behavior that has created the deadlock that we are dealing with in Congress now. Sadly the President and the Senate markedly weakened the founding fathers' vision of checks and balances today."
The rule change would allow federal judge nominees and executive-office appointments to be confirmed by a simple majority vote, instead of a 60 vote majority.

Bhau Kalchuri
A wandering sanyasi, who was a recluse and an ascetic, once showed up at Meherabad during this period. He had heard of Meher Baba and wanted the Master's darshan. He was dressed in an ochre-colored robe, with long matted hair and a beard, and his whole body was smeared with ashes.
Meher Baba asked him, "Who are you? Where do you come from and where are you going?" The sanyasi, with evident pride, listed all the places of pilgrimage he had visited and said he had now come to Meherabad.
Baba asked, "Now what?"
"I have come to have your darshan," the sanyasi said.
"Go further and wander throughout Mount Abu."
"I will proceed further and continue visiting holy places."
"Then what! I will continue roaming as I have been doing."
"For how long?"
"Until I find my Master. Once the Master's grace descends, I will be free!"
"When will that happen?"
"Whenever it is destined."
Meher Baba said, "Everyone is destined to realize God in the end, but no one has any idea of it. Everyone goes his own way."
"What are we to do then?" pleaded the sanyasi.
"Become dedicated to a guru."
"Such a One is not found or seen!"
"Your eyes are to blame! The guru is everywhere. He is to be searched for and recognized."
"I am ready to find him."
"I will show you God, but would you do as I say?"
The sanyasi said he was ready and Meher Baba directed him to sit under a nearby tree. Baba told him to wait there and said he would give him instructions after some time. The sanyasi walked over to the tree and sat down.
Baba became occupied with supervising the labor work of the mandali, during which some of the men were harshly scolded. After half an hour, Baba sent Padri to bring the sanyasi to him, but he was gone!
Afterward, in a serious manner, Meher Baba explained to the mandali:
It is easy to renounce the world by wearing an ochre-colored robe, but to find a guru is very difficult. Surrenderance at his feet is even more difficult, but the most difficult of all is to carry out a Guru's orders.
Take that sanyasi for instance: for years he has lived aloof like a recluse, he has been visiting places of pilgrimage, undergoing hardships in the heat and cold. He has also made innumerable pilgrimages and will go on making them for years to come. But unless and until he surrenders to a guru, he will gain nothing. He will go on wandering with his face and body covered with ashes.
Even if he comes in contact with a real guru, he understands nothing and flings away the cup which is very near his lips! I told him to sit underneath a tree, which he could not do for even half an hour! It is beyond one's capacity to realize God except by the grace of a Master — and it is not easy to gain that grace. It requires the preparation of births and births to be worthy of it. Therefore, those who are living in the intimate contact of the Master are truly blessed.
Later, describing a real lover of God, Meher Baba said:
As a thirsty man under the scorching sun in the desert values water more than pearls or diamonds, so also a real lover of God only thirsts for Him and considers everything else as dust before Him! A real lover is not after name, fame or wealth. He only yearns for God, his Beloved. He who does not possess this attribute is full of selfishness!

While we're still a few months out from the official arrival of Sony's VR gaming headset platform, we got more details on it. All of this info is courtesy of a user guide revealed a little bit early for it on PlayStation Asia's site.
So for starters, you're gonna need some room to really rock out w/ this thing which isn't really much a surprise. You're gonna need around 60 square feet of space to be more exact. You will also need to be seated while playing. Although, I did play a demo of Batman: Arkham VR standing but didn't anything that required standing up or actually walking.
You will be able to use PSVR while wearing glasses BTW. You'll have a few different modes: Social Screen, Mirroring Mode, Separate Mode, and Cinematic Mode. Social lets you play w. friends & family, Mirroring lets you mirror your VR image onto an external screen, Separate lets you play co-op or versus w/ players on a TV, and Cinematic allows you to enjoy PS4 games, videos, & other media on a virtual big screen.
The PlayStation VR is set to arrive on October 13th starting at $399. Any of you PS4 owners looking to pick this up?

RUNWAY: Rake FW14Rake's country-bumpkin inspired tailoring was unexpected and fun, a departure from the stuffy suit-and-tie collections so often seen in London and Milan. Warm wools and tweeds are a pleasure to see while the tailoring was up to par with today's more relaxed but still slender look. Their mix of patterns was also commendable to the style team.

A survey would probably reveal low ratings for an India-Zimbabwe series, yet, there can be no better opportunity to try and experiment with the balance and depth of the side ahead of the World Cup.
The quadrennial showpiece can no longer be considered a distant happening. While other teams have already chalked out a clear-cut plan, the Indians seem to have started working at a strategic proposal only recently.
The BCCI�s plan to select a pool of 20 players to kick off its rotation policy from this series may not materialise in the strict sense. However, even though the pool might remain a non-starter, the unavailability of Sachin Tendulkar, Jawagal Srinath and Virender Sehwag will ensure de facto rotation of players. More precisely, the youngsters will remain in focus in the five-match series.
Sourav Ganguly has been stressing on the need to win consistently. The way the Indians paved the way for the Englishmen to come from behind and level the series in the last two one-dayers speaks volumes about their inability to come through in close situations.
Their whitewash of Zimbabwe in the Test series has put the hosts in good stead but the absence of three key players from the Indian ranks will ensure the two sides start on an even keel ahead of the opener.
The home advantage will, no doubt, work in India�s favour but the Zimbabweans are too hardened a bunch of pros to let it affect their confidence. For the record, India have a 28-6 head-to-head advantage.
�It�s a new ball game and it all depends on how we play on that particular day,� was how Sourav put it after nets at the Kotla.
The Indians did not travel to Faridabad today, preferring to have a look at the wicket only tomorrow morning. The visitors, unhappy at having to take a one-and-a-half hour drive to the venue, did travel all the way for nets.
As has been borne out by history, the wicket will offer runs in plenty though there might be a certain amount of lateral movement early on. The bounce, which should be even, will aid strokemaking.
Poor planning as much as inexperience saw the Indians do justice to their tag of chokers against England here and in Mumbai. Sourav has insisted on a change in the batting order so that in trying circumstances an experienced batsman is always at hand to take the side through.
According to The Telegraph�s sources, Shiv Sundar Das may be rested for tomorrow�s game. That will mean Sourav opening the innings with Dinesh Mongia.
Mongia, who had a 40-plus average in six games versus England, has opened in the Challenger Trophy. There was also talk of promoting Sanjay Bangar but the team thinktank wants to utilise his good temperament in the lower-order.
India�s search for an all-rounder could end with Bangar, who is being seen as an ideal No. 6. His bowling has been satisfactory and his batting gives that much more depth to a side whose late-order has often failed to come good.
The Indian captain remarked on the need �to have a flexible batting order when chasing�. Vangipurappu Laxman is certain to come in at No. 3 while Rahul Dravid is likely to follow him. However, in case of a chase, Dravid might drop to No. 5 and Mohammed Kaif will take his place.
Ajay Ratra may get to prove his worth once more but the brains-trust is sure to use Dravid�s services behind the wickets during the series to try out various combinations. Keeping Das company will be Tinu Yohannan and Sarandeep Singh.A captain also needs the team to perform and not just a couple of individuals. Over-reliance on a Sachin, a Sourav or a Sehwag has proved suicidal and it is now that the others need to come out of the shadows of the stars and perform as a unit.
No less important will be the optimum utilisation of the slog overs, improving running between the wickets and fielding. Inability to rotate the strike has been earmarked as the bane of our recent spate of ODI losses and it is important to note that the stars, too, cannot escape the blame.
The absence of Raymond Price, one of the four players to go back after the Tests, should be one factor that will make things easier for the hosts. Both captains, however, seemed to disagree.
�He bowled well in the Tests but it would have been different here,� said Sourav. �He is slow in the air and wouldn�t have got much assistance from the pitches in the ODIs,� felt Stuart Carlisle.
The Zimbabweans have decided to keep out Douglas Hondo and Charles Coventry, two of the four new additions, out of the XII.
Carlisle also rued the lack of �time for preparation� between the Tests and the one-dayers. But that can hardly be seen a handicap in today�s competitive and professional cricket.
INDIA (likely): Sourav Ganguly, Dinesh Mongia, V.V.S. Laxman, Rahul Dravid, Mohammed Kaif, Sanjay Bangar, Ajay Ratra, Anil Kumble, Ajit Agarkar, Harbhajan Singh and Zaheer Khan.
ZIMBABWE (from): Stuart Carlisle, Heath Streak, Gary Brent, Alistair Campbell, Dion Ebrahim, Andrew Flower, Grant Flower, Travis Friend, Douglas Marillier, Mpumelelo Mbangwa, Tatenda Taibu, Craig Wishart.
Umpires: Subrata Porel and I. Shivaram.
�It�s a sort of a challenge for me. The selectors have given me one more chance and I hope to make good use of it,� Das told The Telegraph this afternoon.
Das failed to perform in the three one-dayers he played in the last tri-series in South Africa. Coming in at No. 7 in the first game, he made five. In the next two matches, he batted at No. 3 and managed just three and two, respectively. He was overlooked for the one-dayers versus England.
The rotation policy is set to be in place from this series and so even if Dinesh Mongia opens the innings with Sourav Ganguly tomorrow, Das� chance is sure to come. And the diminutive Orissa opener is keeping his fingers crossed.
He is not dwelling on past performances and is ready to forget the South Africa episode as a bad dream. Not batting in his usual position did pose some problems for him. He is now richer by that experience and not willing to repeat the same mistakes.
�The Test series has turned out to be good for me. I�m in fine nick and high on confidence. Hopefully, I�ll do well in the one-dayers as well,� he explained.
�Initially I was not considered for the squad. It was only after Sachin (Tendulkar) and (Virender) Sehwag were ruled out through injuries that I got a call-up. It�s a different ball game in the one-dayers and the first 15 overs will be crucial. It will be more of rotating the strike and ensuring maintenance of the run flow,� he added.
This series will push several youngsters to the centrestage and skipper Sourav admits that.
�It�s a pretty young, but a good one-day outfit. The boys are energetic and should field well. It augurs well for Indian cricket that so many youngsters are around,� he said.
According to information received here, Jumman of Lucknow was second at level-par 140 after submitting his second successive card of level-par 70. Two more city men Akbar Ali, Rezwan Ali and amateur-turn-pro Ashok Kumar shot one-under 69 each to join Mukesh Kumar of Mhow, the No. 1 player on the Hero Honda Indian Golf Tour, in tied third place at two-over 142.
Ladies golf
Sunita Goenka leads the field with a nett score of 135 after Day II of the 22nd Taj Trophy golf meet at the Tollygunge Club. She is followed by S. Ratia with a nett score of 138. Anu Bindra and Anjali Chopra are in joint third position with 139. Anjali is leading in the gross prize.
In exchange of 60 hoardings across India, Mohun Bagan players will now sport the name of Selvel, added to that of McDowell on the arm of their jerseys. Selvel have signed a one-year contract and will begin their hoarding campaign with eastern and north-eastern states.
Announcing this at a press conference today, Noomi Mehta, managing director of Selvel Vantage Group, also presented the players with their new jerseys.

PURCHASE:Amazon | Book Depository
Penelope Landlow has grown up with the knowledge that almost anything can be bought or sold—including body parts. She's the daughter of one of the three crime families that control the black market for organ transplants.
Penelope's surrounded by all the suffocating privilege and protection her family can provide, but they can't protect her from the autoimmune disorder that causes her to bruise so easily.
And in her family's line of work no one can be safe forever.
All Penelope has ever wanted is freedom and independence. But when she's caught in the crossfire as rival families scramble for prominence, she learns that her wishes come with casualties, that betrayal hurts worse than bruises, that love is a risk worth taking . . . and maybe she's not as fragile as everyone thinks.
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
*Ranting and swearing up ahead.
Things I now need after reading this book:
1.) a good brick wall to throw the book against,
2.) bleach for my brain,
3.) a punching bag for stress relief.
And now you're probably asking, This book couldn't be that horrible, right? I thought so too, my dear friends. And I was proven wrong. Let me try to get everything down for you:
1.) You're expecting some badass mafia business? Well, HA. You don't get it.
Penelope is dense as fuck. The girl has almost no knowledge about her family's business in the black market. Sure, she knows what they do, but she's been kept in the dark for FOREVER. It was stressful hearing her whine about how nobody tells her anything. Why would they if you're acting like a spoiled brat? And as Faye mentioned in her review, it felt like Penelope's sickness was used as a quick excuse not to get more in-depth with the family business.
2.) Think Penelope's a sweet, passionate girl? Think again.
Maybe to some people, Penelope is sweet and passionate. But like I mentioned earlier, most of the time she just acts like a whiny little girl, which is pretty stupid considering the fact that her family gives her everything she wants. This really bugged me because there are a handful of people who aren't privileged, and she isn't at all thankful.
Also, she's a hypocrite. See, of course people keep secrets. She and this certain character both lied to each other at one point, and she has the guts to get pissed off at this character when in fact her lie was just as–if not more–huge as this character's! Ugh.
3.) You're a romance lover? Sorry, this book will make you cringe.
Even just thinking about the romance in this book gives me a migraine. Yes, there is a love triangle. At first, we're led to believe that Penny will end up with guy #1 /this is me attempting to avoid spoilers/, but then meets guy #2 and falls head over fucking heels over him. She literally bumps into guy #2, and said guy becomes obsessed with her, and she with him. Hell, she DREAMED about him after their first (or was it second?) meeting. Girl, have some dignity.
4.) This is a crime family book, right? Where the heck is Penelope's sense of family?! /And Penny's an idiot part 2./
***minor spoilers*** Okay, like I said, Penelope hates feeling left out. But still, I was fucking surprised when she agreed with guy #1 to run away with him. LIKE WHAT THE SHIT, GIRL? ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY? You have a disease that makes you bruise and bleed easily, and you need blood transfusions every now and then. How the hell do you expect to live if you run away!? Do you really think that guy #1 can take care of you?! Good God, girl. Grow a brain, please.
Basically, this book was a pain in my rear.
I rest my case.

New U of A discussion paper hits a social nerve
As the nations housing crisis enters its fourth year, the option of walking away from mortgages on over-encumbered homes is gaining social acceptance. Recently, University of Arizona law professor Brent White published a paper about the tactic of abandoning a home, (Underwater and Not Walking Away: Shame, Fear and the Social Management of the Housing Crisis, University of Arizona, Discussion Paper No. 09-35 November 2009).It isn't the first time the idea has been brought up, and debt survival is a sensitive issue, but White's paper and it's conclusions may hit a nerve.
Its crowded underwater
According to First American CoreLogic, some 10.7 million Americans are presently underwater on their mortgages, meaning that their mortgage balances exceed their home values. White states:
As of June 2009, more than 32% of all mortgaged properties in the U.S. were underwater, meaning that the homeowner owed more on their mortgage than their home was worth. This percentage is expected to increase to 48% by the first quarter of 2011, by which time housing prices in the largest 100 metropolitan areas are predicted to have dropped 42% from their peak.
One in four homeowners would be better off renting
Walking away from over-mortgaged homes is a move that can save people money if theyre willing to take personal financial risks. One of those disconcerting risks, of course, is that a foreclosure remains on an individuals credit report for seven years, making it difficult to obtain new credit. Although its possible that people with otherwise good credit might begin to overcome lending hurdles sooner than that, people in general are hesitant to wreck their credit. This hesitancy is borne out by the fact that millions of people about one in four would be much better off financially if they walked away from their mortgages, and yet, they do not.
Homeowners tend to take the highroad
If all owners of over-mortgaged homes walked away, economic havoc would no doubt ensue.Home prices could take a deeper plunge, which would make bansk even MORE hesitant to lend to both individuals and businesses. Still, its odd that in the midst of a severe housing crisis, borrowers have taken the high road and struggled to honor their mortgage commitments, while the lenders that doled out high-risk mortgages in the housing boom have eagerly taken in billions of taxpayer dollars. These are the same lenders that now shamelessly resist the modification of troubled mortgages. White points out that this is a double standard involving a contradictory (READ: hypocritical) business morality.
White is a scholar of behavioral economics and law, so he knows what he's talking about. Obviously, the norms governing borrower behavior are at odds with those of lenders. Lenders, as recently demonstrated in stark relief, seek to protect the bottom line without concern for morality or social responsibility. Wall Street gets to maximize profits and minimize losses irrespective of concerns about morality, he says.
Homeowners, on the other hand, are expected to honor their promises, however unmanageable a change of circumstance may be. This moral asymmetry, White concludes, results in a distributional inequality with homeowners bearing a disproportionate burden from the housing collapse.
Emotional constraints deter strategic defaults
White suggests that the choices of most homeowners not to strategically default are the result of two emotional constraints.First is a desire to avoid the shame and guilt of a foreclosure, and the second is exaggerated anxiety about the consequences of a foreclosure. These emotional forces, he continues, are actively cultivated by the government and other social control agents in order to encourage homeowners to follow social and moral norms related to the honoring of financial obligations and to ignore market and legal norms under which strategic default might be both viable and the wisest financial decision.
Suboptimal economic decisions are irrational
White believes that shame and an exaggerated anxiety about the effects of a foreclosure may be keeping homeowners from walking away in droves. Even in non-recourse states such as California and Arizona where foreclosure is the lenders only remedy and personal deficiency judgments cannot be obtained against borrowers, the vast majority of underwater homeowners continue to make their mortgage payments even when they are hundreds of thousands of dollars underwater and have no reasonable prospect of recouping their losses.
While such behavior may appear irrational on its face, behavioral economists liken the behavior of underwater homeowners to the irrationality that leads people to make other suboptimal economic decisions. Underwater homeowners arent knowingly making bad choices, they just cant cognitively grasp that they would be better off if they walked away from their mortgages, White explains.
The moral playing field requires leveling
Walking away from over-encumbered homes may well undermine the basic tenants of mortgage lending, but no more than does taxpayer assistance for lenders who remain unwilling to make interest-rate or other concessions. Rewriting interest rates on existing mortgages would keep many of distressed borrowers in their homes, but lenders have little incentive to make any concessions. Over the last few years, banks can't be shamed into action.Congress briefly toyed with the idea of a bill that would allow bankruptcy judges to rewrite mortgages, but it was shot down quickly, perhaps thanks to lobbyists.
Walking away may be the most financially responsible choice
Struggle as they may against the emotional constraints pinpointed by White, plenty of homeowners arrive at turning points where they have no choice but to walk away. With 10.7 million people in the US underwater with their mortgages, perhaps a re-evaluation of lending philosophy is in order.Walking away might be the best choice financially for a distressed homeowner, if doing so makes it easier to meet other unsecured obligations and provide a stable income for their dependents.

Annual industry event for Top Connect to discuss wholesale rates with carriers around the worldTelecoms leader Top Connect today announced that it will again exhibit at the annual International Telecoms Week (ITW) Expo in Chicago (May 12-15, 2014) at booth # 1516, Purple Level at the Hyatt Regency Hotel.
ITW is a must-attend event for decision makers in the telecom industry, particularly tier 1, 2 and 3 network carriers. It provides a platform for Top Connect's management to discuss wholesale roaming rates with its network of 200 GSM providers with a view to ensuring quality of service for its pre-paid TravelSim product as well as unbeatable international calling rates.
Top Connect is an agile telecoms firm and its TravelSim brand is the world's leading international roaming card service with a user base of over 4 million. Over 80,000 new subscribers sign up for the service each month.
With the goal of growing the user base to 5 million be end 2014, Top Connect recently embarked upon a "Think Global, Act Local" business strategy and is progressively rolling out local numbers for the most popular countries visited by businessmen and holidaymakers.
TravelSim USA with #1 and TravelSim UK with #44 numbers are already available. Incoming calls to these local numbers are free from 66 countries, as are incoming SMS messages. Outgoing calls and data have the same unbeatable price plans as the regular TravelSim service. TravelSim local cards are offered through Top Connect's distributors worldwide.
Earlier this year, Top Connect announced that the TravelSim service had saved its user base a collective $200 million in roaming charges in 2013. The firm expects to increase this increase to $300 million by end 2014 and supplying "local" numbers from power up is seen by Top Connect's management as a key driver.
The figure compares TravelSim's service with costs that would have been amassed if its user base had paid standard roaming charges from their local providers when travelling abroad. Thanks to its agreements with tier one GSM providers around the globe, TravelSim provides a high quality, low cost service that can save customers up to 85% on making calls while abroad. It also offers free incoming calls in 140 countries and free worldwide SMS. The TravelSim product can be used in 190 countries.

by Molly Marquand, for Rodale's Organic Life
Winter: season of sneezing, sniffles, and most of all, sore throats. This year, get a jump on cold season, and bulk up your home remedy kit with some wild foraged medicinals to help soothe (and snuff out) even the most determined laryngitis. When harvesting the below plants, grab at least two big handfuls of leaves or flowers, and set out to dry on newspaper in a well-ventilated, but not too bright, location. Always check with your doctor before experimenting with wild plant teas—particularly if you have a pre-existing medical condition.
All it takes to brew up a cup of sage tea is a quick trip to the herb garden (or windowsill). In fact, many species of the large genus salvia, to which common culinary sage belongs, will do, but the oval-leaved, soft-gray culinary sage is best. If you're out and about looking for sage at a friend's house or in a community garden, seek out hotspots, with full sun exposure, and freely draining—even gravelly—soil. Sage has both antiseptic and soothing qualities. The volatile oils (that make it so good for cooking with meat) help coat inflamed tonsils, while the plant's acidic compounds are responsible for its remarkable ability to squash bacterial invasions. For a cup of tea, use either 2 tablespoons of fresh leaves or 1 tablespoon of dry. If you don't like the strong, savory flavor, you can use the infusion as a gargle too.
Shortcut: Try Alvita Sage Tea
Finding coltsfoot takes a little more savoir-faire than uncovering the popular and well-loved culinary sage. But if you live almost anywhere throughout Canada or the eastern U.S., I promise you, coltsfoot is present. This early-flowering relative of the daisy likes sandy, disturbed soils commonly found along roads. For that reason, always thoroughly wash any part of the plant you collect with soap and water. The easiest time to spot the plant is in early spring when its dandelion-like flower blooms. After March, the plant sports hoof-shaped leaves (hence the name) that range in size from 3 to 10 inches across. Coltsfoot has been used to cure sore throats in its native Europe for centuries. Smoked or sipped, the plant is an extremely effective demulcent, meaning it relieves the irritation of the mucus membranes that make us hack and cough. To make a cup of coltsfoot tea, steep 1 teaspoon of dried leaves or flowers in boiling water. One note of caution: Like many of nature's medicinal heavy-hitters, coltsfoot contains alkaloids which can be toxic if imbibed in large quantities. Always take the lowest effective dose of any herbal tea, and read up on any interactions your tea may have with prescription medicines you take.
Wild cherry makes a good base for a sore throat tea—sort of like using a stock to make soup. A lot of the compounds that give wild plants such potent antimicrobial properties make them bitter too, so it's nice to mix and match with milder, sweeter flavored herbs. With wild cherry, you'll use the bark for tea brewing. It imparts an aromatic almond flavor to the tea, and the side notes of bitterness can easily be covered up with mint or honey. Many different species of cherry can be used to make this tea, but black cherry is best. Look for the tree in almost any woodland—particularly younger forests. Cherry bark is dark, almost black, and deeply flaky, coming off in big plates. To make a wild cherry tea, strip the bark off several young branches. As you strip, you should smell a faint almond aroma (if you don't, strip younger, more pliable twigs). Steep 1 teaspoon of dried bark in one cup of boiling water and try adding rose-hip syrup, mint, or another wild sweetener to compliment the cherry's almond flavors. Cherry will help suppress coughs and strike out bacterial infections resident in inflamed tissue.

New Zealand
"Business as usual" remains the pleasing narrative for Kiwi IP practitioners. Despite its small population and geographical isolation, New Zealand boasts one of the healthiest trademark systems in Asia-Pacific. With the Madrid system now bedded down, brand owners have taken equal liking to filing through both Madrid and the national route – a trend which is keeping many domestic practices happy. In addition, disputes have steadily increased since accession to Madrid. Enforcement generally takes the form of cease and desist letters, as the mature IP scene generally discourages full-blown litigation and anti-counterfeiting campaigns. Full-service groups and attorney firms alike have enjoyed stable workflows over the past year, owing in part to the overall vibrancy of the New Zealand market.
Other recommended experts
Catalyst Intellectual Property is home to Kate Duckworth, a go-to for all manner of trademark disputes. At the helm of his own Potter IP, industry favourite Alan Potter demonstrates his extraordinary talent for managing complex portfolios on a daily basis. Chapman Tripp and its clients are lucky to have Matt Sumpter at their service. The competition law expert is particularly adept at recognising the untapped commercial value of trademark portfolios and exploiting it to the fullest.
Individuals: enforcement and litigation
Individuals: prosecution and strategy
New Zealand: The Bar
Senior counsel
One of the most experienced barristers in New Zealand, Andrew Brown QC of Bankside Chambers has played a key role in many of the country's most influential trademark suits. Practitioners applaud Shortland Chambers' Clive Elliott QC for his ability to turn weak cases around involving matters ranging from brand protection to information technology. Consummate cross-examiner Julian Miles QC is the star IP barrister at Richmond Chambers.
Junior counsel
Former AJ Park litigation head and patent attorney Greg Arthur brings a "thorough and trusted approach" into battle. Her previous life as a commercially attuned solicitor means that Sheana Wheeldon can delicately balance the demands of the courtroom with the needs of clients. Former Baldwins partner Rosemary Wallis is another favourite of practitioners seeking a barrister with genuine brand owner empathy. WTR 1000 newcomers Kevin Glover and Garry Williams have impeccable reputations on the IP scene; Glover is a tireless advocate at Shortland Chambers, while clients flock to Richmond Chambers' Williams for his crystalclear plans of attack.

Family cars started to trickle back onto British roads after the end of the Second World War. These were cars that had been stored away in garages during the war because petrol had only been available for essential work.
Consequently many of the cars that I saw as a child in the 1940s were old ones from the 1920s and 1930s. Some were even earlier. What struck me particularly about these old cars were their indicators for turning left or right.
The old cars indicated that they were turning left or right with a control that swung out a little lever-like arm - see the photos. These were widely known as 'flippers' but their formal name was 'trafficators'.
The trafficator system was not at all satisfactory because the mechanism tended to jam so that the flipper was either stuck in or out all the time - and there was no flashing light to focus anyone's attention on it.
Trafficators sat in a recess, which could become gummed up with dirt, grime, polish and all manner of things, and they could be frozen stuck in winter. Water could seep into the aperture and (maybe because of this) the solenoids that worked the arms failed or jammed. Bulb life was not brilliant either, possibly because the trafficator arms opened and closed with a bit of a 'thwack'. Trafficators were also a pedestrian liability. They would suddenly pop out at head, throat or arm level and I understand that several people were injured by them.
Bryan Davis
My father said that if you turned the engine off before the trafficator had come in, it would stay sticking out and he had broken several by getting out and walking into them.
Mike Wheale
Some buses and lorries were fitted with trafficators. They were usually somewhat larger than those on cars and vans. Some buses also had complimenting left and right pointing illuminated arrows on the rear, and these were often retained after the advent of flashing indicators.
Darren Kitson
As far as I know there was no car indicator to show that a car was slowing down.
The solution to this and to the unreliability of trafficators was hand signals. The driver opened his window and stuck out his arm as explained in more detail on the traffic control page.
As you can imagine hand signalling was not a rapid reaction process. To add to the problem, it relied on the driver behind concentrating on the car in front rather than on the road generally.
The fact that trafficator indicators did not result in more accidents must have been due to there being so little traffic on the roads.
My first car was a 1960 VW Beetle with trafficators, which, after use, I always had lean out of the window and slap down again by hand because they refused to retract into their slots. This was easier on the driver's side of course. So if I didn't have a travelling companion to do the slapping-down on the nearside, every time I turned left I had to resort to hand signals, knowledge of which was mandatory for the driving test in those days.
Gareth Glyn
If I recollect correctly trafficators were made obsolete on new vehicles by law at some point in the 1960s. I remember, as a child, my father commenting that it was "...a ****** good thing too".
Bryan Davis

There is something really nasty about using keyboards for a very long time, cos they give you the repetitive movement injuries. They render your wrists injured and useless, and you would have to rest for a very long time before you get back to work. Bloggers like us always need to be wary of the fact that repetitive movement injury is a professional hazard for us.
Smartfish ErgoMotion keyboard seems to be a solution, according to Chris Scott Barr from Oh Gizmo, who went to the CES 2010 to cover the event. The keyboard is just as easy as other ergonomic keyboads but it also moves and changes position, as it is divided into two modular parts.
Thus, you can avoid repetitive movement injury and it costs just $149.95, which isn't a bad deal at all. I would say, just go ahead and get this cool keyboard when you can for your wrists are very important and you gotta take care of them,, if you are in a job that involves continuous usage of keyboards.

My 411My name is Jenny and I'm on the journey towards a simpler life, usually facilitated by 20 apps on my smartphone that all do the same thing, and e-mail reminders from four different calendars. It's a journey. I bake my own bread, make my own pasta and tortillas, and I like slow food grown from my garden and picked fresh. I've been on a frugal path for a long time, but with my husband's recent job loss we decided it was time to start keeping track of what we've done and figure out how to use our resources more effectively. Hopefully our experience can encourage others on the same road.

Are You a Trail Talker?
My husband makes fun of me, lovingly I'm sure, for many things. One of my habits that he loves to mock is that I am a trail talker. If we are hiking, I always say hello to people we meet on the trail. I even nod at other runners when I am out for a run. Same goes for cyclists when I am out on my bike. Acknowledging other people out exercising makes me feel like I am part of an exercising community. Like we are all in it together.

I believe the singer could be literally "talking" to a superhero and superheroine, and is impressed by their powers, but at the same time, is sympathetic/pitying of their situation because of the pressures put on them by others. He recognizes that both the Superboy and Supergirl have their own personal issues, and that it's difficult for them to live as they do without support/appreciation from the world (who demand their help but don't appreciate them).
BUT, I don't think this song is meant to be taken completely literally, as it could also be understood as a metaphor for politicians/celebrities/others in the public eye that have immense pressure on them from society. (We, as a public, tend to put so much weight on our politicians/celebrities, and don't recognize their struggles and their problems).
Anyways, Tullycraft singer in the end, ("Please don't let them...only superheroes in our town"), tells them that they are in fact needed and important and to not be effected by the negativity generated by us, the society.
