Very Good Book.I am unable to stop reading this book till end.Red the book at a time.
Ram ,Your Andhra Chetan Bhagat.
Sorry ... Chetan Bhagat wrote his books like you :)
Keep Rocking Chap :)
Waiting for next book.... :)
This is really an opening to me. I was thinking Hyderabad was assimilated into India in a couple of weeks or months of independence.
This is a vivid description of those critical movements. Second half of the book is more about personal grievance in the form of court documents.
worth reading.
Thanks - Prasad

Premium Minimalist WordPress Themes
Latest Theme Release!
My name is Justin, founder of Siiimple.com, WordPress themer (not sure that's a word), a sometime Forrster, a brand new Dribbbler, and – oddly enough – a professional distance runner – which, incidentally, is my main focus.
Just opened a new support forum, which you are free to visit for any support related issues here – Support Forum.I don't have a team of developers or a band of customer service agents helping each support request; instead I have my two cats, my lab retriever – Jasmine – and my lovely wife. Like I mentioned above, I'm a professional distance runner (marathon), and design keeps me sane – and when it doesn't – running does. Or relatively sane. I do my best.

Ciao Dear Readers!
I have just returned after a lovely stay in Italy, based in Milan (no – before you ask inexplicably I was neither in nor at Milan Fashion Week). I was visiting the now very grown up children, with their own children, who I looked after as an au-pair several decades ago, while brushing up my Italian skills with a whole week of speaking no English whatsoever. I even got through Gone with The Wind in Italian. A long film at the best of times , but with Italian style frequent advert breaks….
I practised my vocabulary by telling anyone who would listen all about my job as a South East England Blue Badge Guide and the many fascinating places they would be able to visit should they drop into Kent sometime.
I obviously made a strong impression since, as I write, I am dimly aware of a flurry of flight bookings and am braced for an impending influx of my Italian friends requiring a very personal guided tour of South East England.
First off – the nine year old son of my one time ' littlest Italian bambino' (now 6 foot 2..) is obsessed with mazes and he may now be arriving 'in famiglia' in August to check out those near where I live at Hever Castle, and an easy outing away at Hampton Court Palace and Leeds Castle.
Meanwhile the fascination with all things to do with our Royal Family among people without their own continues. While in Italy I was cross- examined on every detail of The Royal Wedding, the changes to the Royal Succession, the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and the – in their opinion – 'new improved' Prince Harry (who during my visit was 'beating' Usain Bolt in the 100 metres in Jamaica so was hot news).
The teenage daughters of 'my little Italian charge now mother of two' are therefore planning their visit for a personalised guided tour of Windsor Castle, and in particular the Queen's Dolls House. No doubt they will also expect the odd trip to Harrods and Buckingham Palace thrown in as well – anywhere they may dream of catching a glimpse of a member of the Royal Family and in particular the aforementioned eligible Prince.
Kensington Palace which re-opens in just a couple of weeks on 26 March after extensive re-furbishment will obviously be a must for them and it will give me an excuse to visit it too, although I may not be able to organise tea with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
These visits from Italy may clash with the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations and/or The Olympic Games at a time when we Blue Badge Guides are likely to be busier than ever – but there will always be time for my Italian family.
This coming week Dawn and I are briefly abandoning our guiding duties to do a course specifically on guiding at the 2012 Olympic Venues. We will therefore be able to take my Italians for a Blue Badge Guide experience of the Olympic Park too. Although possibly not while Usain Bolt is running the 100 metres for real, no doubt with Prince Harry watching – sadly I'm not going to be able to get them tickets for that!
Alla prossima volta

Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling Iron 1
Sheila Y.IowaHairBlondeNormal HairOily HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairRelaxed HairLove It!This is a wonderful product. Very happy with it. Thanks to Folica I have straight hair again.posted Sep 10, 2010Link to this post
HaileeFloridaHairDark BrownDry HairCurly HairThick or Coarse HairNo Dissapointments!I used to use the Nano Silver Tourmaline Ceramic 1.75" Straightener by Conair from target. It was one of the best cheaper straightners but it was getting old, so I started doing research. I was strung between Sedu or GHD. I continued looking, hesitant because the GHD were so much more expensive. I came to the conclusion that I would try the Sedu Revolution. Most people say they were better than the Pro. The curved edges and smooth plates really help on not snagging your hair like some straightners do. It gets very hot very fast and makes easy for quick straightening before school. Its also very easy to curl your hair since it's a 1-inch plate. It makes my hair very glossy and stays straight all day. I always brush my hair with a boars hair brush and put Garnier Fructis sleek n' shine in my hair after. Hopefully its a long lasting iron. The only thing I didn't care for was the heat resistent pad they give you. It feels a little cheap but it gets the job done.posted Sep 10, 2010Link to this post
Linda R.Bell, CAGreat Until It Stopped WorkingThis was a great. It would warm up quickly and I would straighten my hair in a flash, but that only lasted about 3 months. After 3 months one day it just stopped working even though I was extra and I mean extra careful on how I stored it. I honestly did love it and it would leave my hair nice and soft. I have to say that the $25 straightener that my sister bought at Marshall's about 1 year ago and which we do not take care of has lasted longer than this one which i paid about $140 on saleposted Sep 9, 2010Link to this post

Nicole P.CaliforniaHairBlondeCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairWorks Great!I recently bought a Sedu revolution flat iron and I love it. I have super thick, curly hair and it straightens it quickly and easily. I have had many different flat irons and this by far straightens my hair the fastest. Althought, if you are looking for a flat iron that also curls your hair well I would recommend the Infrashine instead. The sedu is not very good at curling but still a great product. Love it!!posted Sep 2, 2010Link to this post
Jill C.Emerald Isle, NCHairMedium BrownCurly HairChemically Treated HairAwesome!This flat iron is awesome! It leaves my naturally curly hair smoother, shiney and longer than my Chi.

ElleHairAuburnNormal HairColor Treated HairLooks Good, Feels Good.Glides through really smoothly, & leaves hair looking & also FEELING soft & shiny! I use it with CHI Silk Infusion (the BEST heat protectant) & I wouldn't recommend not using any heat protectant at all because this iron gets HOT.
Also, for all you girly-girls, the pink iron is a sassy hot pink in real life, as opposed to the mauve-ish pink in the pictures. It's wayyy prettier in person!posted Sep 1, 2010Link to this post -

(Editor's note: I'm doing a new weekly spot on 92.3 The Fan every Thursday at 10:50 a.m., which you can hear on the radio or by streaming the station live at The Fan's website. The spot essentially is highlights of the best of my reporting each week.)
Baseball's second wild card has generated plenty of excitement, but it also has generated plenty of controversy and ill effects, too.
Yahoo!'s Jeff Passan makes the case that the addition of a second wild card has done nothing but reward mediocrity. It also has made a mess of the schedule, making games like Cubs-Pirates game that started at 11:42 p.m. Eastern time last night necessary. To me, it goes deeper than that: It potentially punishes teams that clearly have been head and shoulders above the field with a play-in game, a total crapshoot. Look at the National League: The Atlanta Braves are the clear wild card in the NL, and would win the NL West if the season ended today. Instead, their division counterparts, the Washington Nationals, are 5� games ahead of them, and so Atlanta must play a team that likely will finish seven to eight games behind it in a one-game, winner-gets-in game. Sure, you can argue that the Braves should be able to win if they want in. But, baseball's funny. Everyone has a bad day, flukes happen, umpires make bad calls. Instead of having a margin for error, the Braves, clearly better than the rest of the NL's wild card field, must win, or they're out. If you're going to have a second wild card, it should be at least a three-game series. That helps get the best team in, and also provides an even larger advantage to the division winners, with a potentially worn-out wild card team to play. (And I reserve the right to change my mind if the Pirates miraculously re-emerge as the second wild card and beat Atlanta. But don't count on that happening.)
Got an email from a season ticket holder of the Phoenix Coyotes — yeah, I'm nationwide like that — who, like the Cleveland Cavaliers and other teams did during previous lockouts, are giving season ticket holders two options, according to literature distributed by the team. The options, a sort of reward to customers for keeping their season ticket payments with the team and not canceling their plans and asking for refunds, include payouts in the form of 2% simple interest on funds in their season ticket holder accounts, or 5% interest in the form of Coyotes Cash, which is only redeemable, obviously, on Coyotes gear and tickets. More NHL: It's a time of haves and have-nots in the NHL, which over the weekend entered its third lockout in the tenure of commissioner Gary Bettman.The league's top organizations, such as the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers, are doing quite well, while the Columbus Blue Jackets lost $13.7 million in the 2010-11 season, according to data from Forbes. The New York Times, meanwhile, reports that players are headed for European and Russian leagues, and the two sides, like the NBA and NFL before it, are haggling over the players' share of league money, a pot now approaching $3 billion.The owners' primary demand is to reduce the players' share of league revenues from 57% last season to 47% in the last four years of a proposed six-year deal. The players have offered to eventually reduce their share to about 53%.

By: Lauren Fix, The Car Coach
The New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) rates vehicles to determine crash worthiness and rollover safety. The safety ratings are gathered during controlled crash and rollover tests conducted at NHTSA's research facilities. Lauren Fix, the Car Coach, takes a closer look.
It's simple: More Stars equal Safer Cars. Five stars indicate the highest safety rating and one star the lowest. While the safety feature ratings may differ among vehicles, all automobiles must first meet Federal standards.
Each year, NHTSA rates a sample of new vehicles that are predicted to have high sales volume, those that have been structurally redesigned, or those with improved safety equipment. Tested vehicles are purchased from dealerships across the country; the vehicles are not supplied directly to NHTSA by the manufacturer, a common misconception.
For the 2011 model year, NHTSA estimates 60 percent of the light vehicle fleet will be rated. Though NHTSA is unable to rate every car, all vehicles sold in the U.S. must meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Starting with 2011 models, NHTSA has introduced tougher tests and rigorous new 5-Star Safety Ratings that provide more information about vehicle safety and crash avoidance technologies. Because of the more stringent tests, ratings for 2011 and newer vehicles should not be compared to ratings for 1990-2010 models. Overall vehicle score and frontal crash ratings should ONLY be compared to other vehicles of similar size and weight.
5-Star Safety Ratings can be found on SaferCar.gov and are posted on the Monroney labels (window stickers) that are required to be displayed on all new vehicles.

Smartphone recommendations
Maddie asks:
Hi! I don't know if you do this kind of request but I still tried LOL. I was wondering if you could help me find that perfect smartphone since I am not a tech type of person. And it makes me more confused looking at every single phone there is to match my needs. I know some of them would sound silly, but I think they are essential for me.
So here are the things I want my phone to have:
- Wi-fi enabled (one that is free of charge and can be used the moment you open your phone haha)
- The interface or the look of the sites I would be browsing should be AT MOST similar to how they look on a normal computer.
- Fast surfing to all sites, including Blogger. (Am I asking to much?)
- Answering machine to prevent missed calls.
- Lightweight (So being bulky is a no-no)
- Basic Microsoft office toolsI know these may seem an impossible smartphone to find, but I do hope that there exists such phone here in our country or elsewhere
Thank you so much!
YugaTech answers:
Here are my recommendations, based on your preference:
- LG Optimus Black
- Samsung Galaxy SLThe answering machine is basically a telco feature where you enable Voice Mail. Call your carrier if they support this feature.

Outdoor Adventure in Carinthia
Exploring unspoilt countryside, rediscovering simple pleasures, enjoying the interplay of lakes and mountains – all this can be experienced in many variations in Carinthia.
Cultural highlights in Carinthia
Carinthians are lucky to be blessed with many talents. Famous for being good singers, they have nurtured at least as many celebrated painters, writers and architects. Hardly surprising in this highly cultured environment.
Carinthia - motorbikers' paradise
Carinthia is Austria's southernmost province. Bordering on Italy and Slovenia, it covers an area of 9533 sq km to the south of the Eastern Alps. 56% of the province lies over 100 m above sea level.
Golfland Kärnten
Golfing pleasure knows no boundaries at Golfland Kärnten, where the golf ball doesn't have to stop even at the national boundaries: in addition to 10 golf courses in Carinthia, the co-operation also includes two Italian courses (Grado and Tarvis) and one Slovenian (Bled).
Campingland Carinthia. Welcome with friends.
Because like hardly anywhere else, here in Austria's southernmost province campgrounds are situated in such dreamlike locations and feature the most modern infrastructure.
Winter camping and caravaning
Winter camping and caravaning in the south of Austria doesn't leave skiers cold: with the home away from home on wheels to cross-country trails and ski slopes.
Cross-Country Skiing. Excellent loipes and a well-structured loipe network.
Those of you who are fascinated with cross-country skiing will have great joy with this sport in the regions of Carinthia!
The joy of lakes on the southern balcony of the Alps
In Austria's sunny south more than 200 warm swimming lakes, most of them pure enough to drink, invite you to take a swim. Joyful living and relaxed enjoyment come naturally here. Sparkling water, a mild, almost Mediterranean climate and the glorious mountain and lake landscape nestling in the Alps-Adriatic region, which shares borders with Italy and Slovenia, form a perfect setting for being active, relaxing and enjoying life.
The joy of lakes on the southern balcony of the alps
In Austria's sunny south, there are more than 200 invitingly warm swimming lakes, most of them pure enough to drink. Joyful living and relaxed enjoyment come easily here. Glittering water, a mild southerly climate and the wonderful landscape of mountains and lakes form the perfect setting for activity, relaxation and enjoyment. Carinthia's most attractive lake saunas add to the well-being experience, even when the temperatures are not all that summery!

10 Positives of Aspergers
There is so much stigma surrounding Asperger's Syndrome. It's hard for us Aspies to accept ourselves as the wonderful and amazing people we are when so many people talk about it like it's something to be ashamed of. In order to combat that negativity, here's a list of the Top 10 Positive Aspects of Having Asperger's Syndrome.
10. Honesty
We rarely lie (you can tell if we try it!) and we don't say it if we don't mean it.

5. Accepting
More willing to accept people for who they are.

4. Knowledgeable
Extremely well-versed in our field or subject of choice.

3. Vision
We see the whole picture, details and all, and we KNOW we will succeed.

2. Contented
Less focused on material goods. If it's comfortable, we're good. We generally don't need or want the latest fad.

1. No head games
There is no hidden meaning behind anything we say, just the facts.

...and many more
This book is awesome. There are so many more positive aspects of Asperger's, they can't all be listed here. What do you find to be the most positive aspect of Aspergers?

Other than a few dreams i've remebered all my life and the myriad of prophetic ones i havn't had any good ones recently. Not that i can remeber anyways i tend not to remeber mine unless they fit the above criteria of being either prophetic or well actually the ones i remembr are also prophetic.
Last week though i kept having dreams that were a fusion of world of warcraft and fable 3.

PHILADELPHIA -- Simon Gagne looked like his old self in his old home.
Gagne scored a goal in his first game back with the Flyers, Ilya Bryzgalov made 23 saves and Philadelphia beat the Washington Capitals 4-1 Wednesday night at Wells Fargo Center.
"It makes things a lot easier to come back here and know what it takes to play in Philly," Gagne said. "I'm excited to be back. I've been in league for 13 years and I still have some good hockey left in me."
Claude Giroux, Wayne Simmonds and Max Talbot also had goals for the Flyers (10-11-1).
Joel Ward snapped Bryzgalov's shutout bid when he scored with 2:09 left.
Washington's Braden Holtby, coming off a 33-save shutout against Carolina a night earlier, was yanked in the second period after allowing four goals on 18 shots.
The Capitals (7-11-1) had won five of seven after a 2-8-1 start.
"It's our first bad game in while, and I think it was all of us and we looked a little tired," Caps coach Adam Oates said. "We didn't have enough fight to fight back through them. I think it's a little bit of the product with the league right now because of the lockout with scheduling. Teams are tired. We will chalk it up to that and find ways to work on stuff."
Gagne, acquired from the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday, got a loud ovation from a sellout crowd as he returned to the team where he spent the first 10 seasons of his career and had his greatest success.
He caught a red-eye flight from the West Coast and barely had time to rest before taking the ice in an orange jersey for the first time since the Flyers lost the 2010 Stanley Cup Finals to Chicago.

Order Provigil No Prescription
Buy Modafinil No Prescription . Buy Provigil Online Cheap. Modafinil Price .
There are many benefits of Provigil which is a drug used to treat extreme sleeplessness due to narcolepsy and other sleep disorders. Provigil is only available as a prescription and it is designed to help the patient stay awake during during working hours of the day. It is unknown exactly how this drug increases one's wakefulness. However, it's thought that it works by affect brain chemicals that control the sleep and wake senses. This drug should not be used to compensate for a lack of sleep nor should it be used to postpone getting a good night's sleep.
While the benefits of Provigil are obvious, it is a medication that can become addictive. This is why a patient is told never to increase his or her dose or take the drug longer than what the prescribing doctor directed. There are some side effects associated with Provigil which include headache, nausea anxiety, feeling dizzy and difficulty falling asleep. More serious side effects which should be shared with the prescribing doctor included serious allergic reactions, chest pains, irregular heartbeat, depression and a fever.
People around the world enjoy the benefits of Provigil as this medication can do wonders for helping one stay awake when suffering from narcolepsy or another sleep disorder. This drug should not be taken if you have high blood pressure, heart problems, liver problems, kidney problems or a history of regular drug or alcohol use. It is not advisable to drive a vehicle or operate dangerous machinery while taking Provigil until you have become used to this drug as it can make you feel dizzy.
Perhaps those who get the most out of the benefits of Provigil are those who suffer from narcolepsy. When someone with narcolepsy cannot drive a car or work because he or she is prone to falling asleep often, this medication can help tremendously. This is because Provigil keeps the person awake and alert, allowing him or her to carry out day to day activities most of us take for granted.

The Hult Prize is a start-up accelerator for social entrepreneurship.
In partnership with the Clinton Global Initiative we have created the world's largest student movement for Social Good. Register now for your chance to change the world.
Established in 2005 by President Bill Clinton, the CGI convenes global leaders to devise and implement innovative solutions to some of the world's most pressing challenges. Regional winners of the Hult Prize will be featured at the 2013 annual meeting, where a final pitch-off will be held. President Clinton, along with CGI meeting attendees will select and award the winning team with a $1 million prize.
President Clinton has personally selected this year's challenge: The global food crisis.
A detailed case study and challenge question will be released to all selected participants on the first week of January, 2013.
1/4 children in the world are hungry
1/3 of food production is lost or wasted
Hungry people in world > than USA + EU + Canada population
Hunger is the world's most solvable challenge
Faculty from the Hult International Business School and the IXL Center, led by Dr. Hitendra Patel, Director of the Innovation Program at Hult International Business School and Managing Director of the IXL Center, will work directly with President Clinton along with private and public sector executives within the food space to capture a detailed challenge which will be presented to all participants.
The case study will take a deep dive into the food crisis from the eyes of the beneficiary and valuable insights from the entire food ecosystem will be extracted and documented. More than 100 hours of consulting advisory will also be provided as the IXL Center will utilize its proprietary framework to identify the key issues being faced and frame a specific challenge, that when solved, can create a tipping point in the market place.
Participants will not be limited to the information available in the case study, and are encouraged to seek out knowledge from any resource available. The published case study is not your "traditional" case study. Instead of concentrating on a historical series of events and outcomes, the Hult Prize case studies capture real-time information and knowledge, and transfers that learning to it's readership. It is critical that participants stay up-to-date on recent developments in the industry that may take place in the marketplace between the time the case study is released and the regional competitions.
Given the dynamic nature of the case study, new real-time information will be given on the day of the regional event. A specific challenge question, selected by President Bill Clinton will be drafted around the case study and distributed to the selected competitors at the same time the case studies are released in early January.
Nearly 1 Billion people in the World are Hungry, that is over 1 out of every 4 children. Ironically, our global economy produces enough food each year to feed everyone, however more than one-third of the food generated for human consumption continues to be lost or wasted.
College and university students are being called to action to compete in one of five global regional rounds of competition and online. Teams of 4-5 students will be charged with developing ideas for social enterprises that can conquer one of modern day's most solvable global challenges: the food crisis.
Incubator to develop investment ready companies.
Regional winners pitch at Clinton Global Initiative.
The winning social enterprise will go to market.
The 2013 Hult Prize will be themed around the global food crisis. Regional rounds of competition will be held in five cities around the world, simultaneously, on March 2, 2013. A sixth site will be facilitated virtually from March 3-April 19, for those participants whose economic means restrict them from attending one of the five physical competitions. This virtual round of competition will be conducted through Facebook.
The aim of this year's Hult Prize is to identify and launch start-ups for social good that drive solutions around those key areas, which we believe will have the greatest net impact on the global food crisis.
If your application is accepted, your team will be invited to join the world's most elite institutions and students from over 130 countries, where you will compete for the regional crown. Teams will be selected based on their potential to develop social enterprises that can cause a radical change in the current food value chain. You can apply to any of the five regions around the world. If your application is not successful, you will automatically qualify for the on-line edition.
At the regional competition, you will receive an in-depth training session on the evening of your arrival. The next day (March 2, 2013) your team will have four final hours to collaborate as a team to finalize your idea and prepare your pitch. You will then present your idea to a world-class panel of executive judges who will select the very best idea and team. The winning team will then move-on to the world-class Hult Accelerator, for idea incubation - one step closer to winning USD1Million and the 2013 Hult Prize.
The online event will kick-off on March 3, 2013 with a winner being announced in mid-May. This winner will join the regional winners at the next phase of the challenge.
The Hult Accelerator is a world-class center for innovation, designed specifically for the Hult Prize. Out of the thousands of entries that participate in the regional competition, only the best six teams will be selected to work at the Accelerator. While participation is highly encouraged, it is not mandatory.
The Accelerator will incubate your team's idea and provide mentorship, advisory and strategic planning as we help you set-up to launch your new social businesses. Through the creation of your "investment ready" company, you will be positioned to "get to work on Monday morning" should your new company win the USD1 million Hult Prize.
Over the months of July and August, the Hult Accelerator will give your team exposure to a number of successful business leaders and established social entrepreneurs. You will be entrenched in an innovative work, eat and play environment. Each team will be provided with mentors to help them refine their business concepts and to identify the best means to scale-up their operations if successful. We recognize that every team will have different time obligations during this period, and will offer multiple timings for the incubation process.
Following the conclusion of your time at the Hult Accelerator, each team will begin preparations to attend the 2013 Clinton Global Initiative annual meeting, where you will pitch your refined start-up at the Hult Prize Global Finals.
Following the conclusion of your time working in the Hult Accelerator in July and August, each of the six winning teams will attend CGI's annual meeting in September, 2013. Within the meeting agenda, President Clinton will host the Hult Prize Global Finals. Here, teams will pitch their ideas in-front of a world-class audience, where President Clinton, along with CGI Meeting attendees will select and award the winning team with a USD1 million prize.
The winning team will then be featured in the following day's featured plenary session and again recognized by President Bill Clinton and the atlarge CGI community. Each of the six finalist start-ups will receive a full year's membership into the Clinton Global Initiative and continued support with a call to action being issued, for members of the CGI to support the non-winning teams.
The 2013 Hult Prize Global Champion will immediately work to launch their new social enterprise. Continued support, mentorship and advisory will be provided by the Hult Accelerator and it's partners, as the winning student team moves forward with the implementation of their idea.
Each of the six teams presenting at the Global Finals will receive a one year membership into the Clinton Global Initiative. CGI convenes a community of global leaders to forge solutions to the world's most pressing challenges. CGI annual meetings have brought together more than 150 heads of state, 20 Nobel Prize laureates, and hundreds of leading CEOs, heads of foundations and NGOs, major philanthropists, and members of the media.
This network has embraced the Hult Prize as part of the CGI agenda, and will provide all of of our six global finalists an opportunity to continue to work towards their dream of launching their social enterprise, through helping to raise capital, identification of strategic partnerships and media support.
Like us, create a team of 4 - 5, and submit your innovative solutions from March 3rd to April 19th

My husband is very happy that the table cloth is no longer slipping around. This works great for daily use. It looks fine for a vinyl table covering. It is easy to slip off and on when I use a cloth table cloth.

Table protected by vinyl table cover
By Retired teacher
from KC, MO
The vinyl tablecloth is on my wood table to protect it from everyday scratches. It is working!I was disappointed that the tablecloth was so thin and it isn't tight however I do like it.
By Lulu

By free spririt

Too Big!
By pjshopper
from Cadillac, MI
This plastic table cloth is attractive, but needs a much larger table than 48 inches. It was not tight enough to lay flat. Somewhat flimsy, too.

By Judy the cook

I am pleased with table cover
By erin
from pearland, tx
I am using table cover to protect my new table. Although it is very wrinkled, even after a couple of weeks, it does what I wanted it to.
By Ro
from Pittsburgh, PA
Just got this and it fits my new table perfectly! I bought it to protect the wood but I would never think of putting a hot/warm plate, bowl or pot on it without a hot pad. When the kids spill it will be great. Just ordered some more.
Oblong Tablecover
By Sharon
from Clarkston, mi
I'm using this tablecover under a cloth tablecover. It doesn't fit an oval table very well, but would do good on an oblong table.

Looks like wood.
By Granma Bargain Hunter
from Kingston, Ok.
For our old round scarred table, it now looks like brand new. Perfect for warm plates without placemats. Also perfect for playing card games as well as rolling the dice for those games. Doesn't slide off with daily use and easy to clean.
Wood like elastic table cover
By Suna

Looks like real wood!
not my cup of tea
By Linda
from Las Vegas
This tablecloth is exactly what it says, an oblong table cover. However, it does not fit my table very well as my table is sized towards the smaller range. We had to tape it to the table, and I will cut it down soon. The product is fine, just too large.
these table cover are great

Was smaller than size quoted
By Jim

Need to return the product. Smaller than quoted onthe internet.
By bellax
from tucson arizona
Item was badly wrinkled and did not straighten out at all once placed in the tabletop. Very thin and not at all what I needed. Definately overpriced for the quality.
These look great!
By MaBill
from Sacramento, Ca.
I have used these for several years. Love the mosiac and woodgrain. Have given one to each of my daughters. They love them as well. Clean easily, protect from spills, kids. I only two suggestions: make the backing a little thicker to add more protection for the table, and create a Thanksgiving/fall colored one.
Elasticised Tablecover, Sm Round
By Ozie the Barker
from Phoenix, AZ
When covering my round table, Disappointed in the quality of this item. Flimsy and almost non-existant top vinyl and same for underneath padding. If you place a glass or a pot or a plate, it leaves an imprint of the item. I would have returned it but I misplaced the paperwork that came with the tablecloth.

I love this.
By Lady who likes to entertain
from Stillwater, OK
I liked this table cloth so much, after I got it, I ordered two more afraid when it was time to replace I woulnd't be able to find it again. It really protects on my woodgrain table, fits perfectly, and until you actually sit down at the table can't tell it is vinyl. People are always amazed when they realize it is vinyl and want to know where I got it.

What we needed...
By DEMOmoose
from TX
We were given a similar product several years ago, and it wore well and lasted a long time. We use this on our wooden dining room table for playing games. This one seems a lot thinner than our previous one, and we just hope it will still be durable and wear well. Otherwise, we are very pleased.
Just what we needed!
We were given a similar product as a gift and enjoyed it for years. This cover, however, seems a little lighter in weight, and we are concerned about its durability and lasting power. Still, overall, we are very pleased.
Did not arrive in good condition -
By kay linda
from peoria, az
The product is very attractive; however It was on my table one day and a hole appeared. I do not know if it happened in shipping, but it was there right after I put it on my table. I did not send back because I did not want to pay [...] The second tablecloth is on an outdoor table and is wearing fine.

Wardrobe hiding wires and fuse
Materials: Billy, Besta, Tombo doors, Grundtal rails, brackets and hinges from hardware store
Description: In our 1903 apartment we were facing the typical problem of an ugly surface-mounted fuse box that we wanted to hide. As the ceiling is quite high, we couldn't find a piece furniture tall enough. So we took a Billy bookcase (79 1/2", 202 cm tall) and fixed it to the wall with metal brackets.
The fuse box is now hidden behind a Tombo door. All the extra wiring for the wifi-hardware is behind the door we built from one of the Billy shelves that we didn't need anymore.
To complete the wardrobe and get space for all our winter gear and helmets we hung a Besta shelf-unit/height extension (47 1/4", 120 cm wide) next the Billy, also with Tombo doors. The Besta had to be turned upside down because of the holes for the feet. The rod is made of two Grundtal rails. The Trones shoe storage makes the all-white wardrobe perfect. Unfortunately IKEA has discontinued the white Trones.

Neat idea. Was just wondering where did you get the brackets from? Are they Ikea? Can you pls give me the product name. Thanks

Hi! I'm back to working on Flam4OCL! Version 0.40 should be out soon, which brings me to my question:
How big is the largest flame you've ever rendered? What resolution/quality?
To stress test my tiling algorithm, I've been rendering various flames from the Electric Sheep archives at 16,000x16,000 at quality 5,000. I also did one at 12,000x12,000 quality 20,000. Since I've greatly improved large image performance since version 0.36 (mostly due to an improved memory allocation scheme, which allows me to use all available memory on the device, even for ATI cards (I hope - haven't tested this yet)), my render times ranged from 2-3 hours for each image running on a single Nvidia GTX570. Unfortunately, there's a bug in the OpenCL implementation which prevents me from rendering anything larger than ~16,000x16,000; it appears to be a 64 bit issue since this corresponds to 4GB of accumulation buffer. I guess someone on the driver team tried to store a pointer in an int.
I would upload the images for you guys to look at, but they're rather large, as in >400MB each . If anyone's really interested, I can upload one to my dropbox. Also, if anyone has some huge fractals they'd like rendered, I can do it ^.^

After transferring from Troup High following his junior season, Leonard was a starting safety as Callaway as a senior, and he was one of the team's top defensive players as the Cavaliers won a region title and made it to the second round of the state playoffs.
Leonard has now turned his attention to baseball, and he's becoming a critical part of that team as well.
Leonard has settled in nicely as a starter in the outfield, and on Thursday, he showed what he can do with a bat in his hands.
In the first inning, Leonard came through with a grand slam, and the Cavaliers didn't look back on the way to a 14-2 victory over the homestanding Heard County Braves.
The Cavaliers improved to 4-2, and they'll be off until Wednesday when they host Handley (Ala.) in a makeup game.
Everyone on the team got some time on the field during Thursday's game.
"Everybody got an at-bat," Callaway head coach Dusty Hubbard said. "We played everybody. We pretty much put every sub we had in about the second or third inning."
The Cavaliers broke it open early.
In a first inning highlighted by Leonard's blast, the Cavaliers scored seven runs, and the rout was on.
Hunter Heath added two hits for Callaway.
On the mound, Nick O'Berry got the start and pitched two innings, and Kevin Craft also pitched two innings.
Kane Keith finished things off with one inning of work.
"We were going to try to use a couple more (pitchers) if the game had gone a little longer. But that worked out OK," Hubbard said. "We just wanted to make sure to get those guys out there. It's better than throwing bullpen."

Morningstar Reports Hedge Fund Performance for May and Asset Flows for April
View PDF with Data Tables
CHICAGO, June 20, 2012—Morningstar, Inc. (NASDAQ: MORN), a leading provider of independent investment research, today reported preliminary hedge fund performance for May as well as estimated asset flows through April 2012. The Morningstar MSCI Composite Hedge Fund Index, an asset-weighted composite of nearly 1,000 hedge funds in the Morningstar Hedge Fund database, was down 0.5% in May, but still up 2.7% for the first five months of the year.
"May proved to be a challenging month for most hedge fund strategies as the European sovereign debt crisis once again dominated market sentiment," said Terry Tian, alternative investments analyst with Morningstar. "Managed futures was one of the few strategies to shelter investors from the market downturn."
The U.S. stock market suffered the biggest decline since last September—the SandP 500 Index and the Russell 2000 Index dropped 6.0% and 6.6% in May, respectively. European and emerging markets stocks also declined sharply. The MSCI Europe NR USD and the MSCI EM NR USD indexes plummeted 12.3% and 11.2%, respectively, in May. In light of this broad market downturn, equity-based hedge funds strategies were some of the hardest hit—the Morningstar MSCI Equity Hedge Fund Index fell 3.8% in May. International-focused hedge funds also posted heavy losses. The Morningstar MSCI Europe Hedge Fund Index and the Morningstar MSCI Emerging Markets Hedge Fund Index dropped 1.8% and 5.7%, respectively.
Arbitrage strategies held up better, in part because the volume of mergers and acquisitions worldwide continued to improve despite worsening global macroeconomic conditions. The Morningstar MSCI Arbitrage Hedge Fund Index and the Morningstar MSCI Relative Value Hedge Fund Index declined only 0.2% and 0.3% in May, respectively.
Managed futures strategies finally returned to their winning ways, as major commodities, such as crude oil and copper, exhibited consistent declining trends in May. The Morningstar MSCI Systematic Trading Hedge Fund Index jumped 2.1% in May, its largest gain since July 2011, making it one of best-performing hedge fund indexes for the month.
Other winners were currency-focused hedge funds—the Morningstar MSCI Currencies Hedge Fund Index rose 2.0% in May. Currency hedge funds managed to benefit from the sharp depreciation of European and major emerging market currencies against the U.S. Dollar.
In April, single-manager hedge funds in Morningstar's Hedge Fund Database leaked $4.1 billion, while funds of hedge funds gathered $402 million. The systematic futures category experienced the heaviest redemptions among all single-manager categories, bleeding $3.8 billion. The global macro and diversified arbitrage categories received inflows of $859 million and $529 million, respectively.
May returns for the Morningstar MSCI Hedge Fund Indexes are based on funds that reported as of June 18, 2012. April asset flows are based on funds that reported as of June 14, 2012. Hedge fund investors, managers, consultants, and advisors can access additional information through Morningstar DirectSM, the company's global research platform for institutions.
Morningstar has approximately 11,000 hedge funds and funds of hedge funds in its database. Morningstar calculates hedge fund indexes by applying the MSCI Hedge Fund Index Methodology and Hedge Fund Classification Standard to Morningstar's hedge fund database. These indexes demonstrate the performance of hedge funds to investors who have hedged their currency exposure back into U.S. dollars. The MSCI Hedge Fund Index Methodology classifies hedge funds by investment process, geography, and asset class. These indexes are not investible.

When considering hedge funds, investors should consider various risks, including the fact that some products engage in leveraging and other speculative investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss, can be illiquid, are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors, may involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing important tax information, are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as mutual funds, often charge high fees, and in many cases the underlying investments are not transparent and are known only to the investment manager. The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in trading can lead to large losses as well as gains.

About Us
Organized Research Unit and National Resource Center of Excellence
The Gustav E. von Grunebaum Center for Near Eastern Studies at UCLA encourages, coordinates and integrates instruction and research in the humanities and the social sciences, business, law, medicine and the media, and in all languages essential to an understanding of the Near East. The Center pioneered study and research on the large and diverse Middle Eastern American communities in the United States. As one of the largest National Resource Centers in the US, CNES fosters public education programs and research projects of interest to the academic and professional communities and to the broader public in metropolitan Los Angeles and throughout Southern California.
The Center serves as a conduit for contacts among scholars of the Middle East and the Islamic world through its resident scholar program. Visitors appointed as Center Fellows can make use of UCLA's extensive research facilities, including a rare manuscript collection and library holdings that are the second largest in North America. The Near East Center is an intellectual home for scholars from various academic institutions in California and for independent scholars who contribute to the regular program of colloquia, workshops, lectures, conferences and a variety of outreach activities sponsored year-round by the Center.
A critical mass of some 1500 individuals are involved at UCLA in teaching, learning and transmitting critical knowledge and perspectives on the Middle East. These include more than 60 faculty members, a dozen professional staff, some 200 graduate students and over 1000 undergraduates, as well as a host of fellows, scholars and researchers who visit the University to participate in conferences and workshops or to use the extensive Middle East resources housed in its libraries.
Interest in the Middle East and the Islamic world is at an all time high, generating a corresponding increase in demand for specialized knowledge, command of the languages, and interaction with Middle Easterners from diverse walks of life, such as the overseas delegations that regularly visit UCLA.
The Middle East studies community extends to include over 100 Southern California scholars connected via the information and communication networks, as well as a multitude of individuals from local ethnic communities and the general public who take part in the many Middle East events and activities sponsored by the Center and the University, including the popular musical performances and film series held on campus.
The synergy generated by these individuals and groups and their nexus in CNES is amplified by their interaction and collaboration with members, affiliates and constituencies of other area studies centers housed at the UCLA International Institute focusing on Africa, Southeast Asia, Europe and Eurasia, and International Relations.
The talents, dedication and combined interest of all these individuals affirm the role of CNES as an Organized Research Unit of the University of California and a federally-designated National Resource Center of Excellence.

Discoveries ›Scientific Council Member Discusses New Treatment for Depression in Webinar
On September 25, 2012, the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation presented the latest webinar in the "Meet the Scientist" series titled "New Ways to Stimulate the Brain for Depression." Foundation Scientific Council Member, Mark S. George, M.D., from the Medical University of South Carolina, presented and spoke about Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), a breakthrough treatment for depression that he pioneered with the support of NARSAD Grant funding. Participants had the opportunity to submit questions and hear responses directly from Dr. George during the Q&A section of the webinar.

I have been suffering with depression, panic attacks and anxiety for the majority of my life. I was not diagnosed with panic attacks until I was about 25 yrs of age. Since then i have been on medication for depression and anxiety.
I missed this webinar. Can anybody tell me that what exactly was shared in this webinar? What were the treatments for depression? Is there any medicine for it or some exercises are recommended by the presenter? I read some depression quotes http://depressionquotes.info and I feel that it can be treated with communication and exercises rather than medicine. In my opinion reading motivational quotes or books, good communication and meditation is the best solution to remove the depression. But still I want to listen from others also. Please share your ideas.
The webinar was recorded and can be viewed on our YouTube page anytime: http://youtu.be/Je7MjmVI0-M. Hope this helps.
Thanks from your friends at the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation.

Re-posted for the upcoming tax season! This post describes how tax reporting of forgiven debt works. It also gives some solutions if you've been hit with a 1099-C for debt forgiveness.
It's time to face the tax man again, and some consumers are surprised to receive a 1099 from a lender or debt collector they dealt with in the last year, counting income to the consumer for debt forgiveness. The amount on Form 1099-C states the income "derived" from the forgiveness or settlement (for less than the full value) of a debt. Because the lender wrote off a debt (or a portion of a debt) it believed it was owed, it has the right (but not necessarily the obligation) to charge the income to you. Here are some exceptions.
1. A lender can't send a 1099-C for debt discharged in bankruptcy. If a debt was discharged in bankruptcy, the lender can't issue a 1099-C for debt forgiveness. However, let's say a debt was settled in January of 2010, and then you filed bankruptcy in February–then the debt forgiveness would be income.
2. Discharge of debt on principal residence. The federal Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act allows taxpayers to exclude debt forgiveness income from the discharge of debt on their principal residence up to $1 million. So debt reduced in a mortgage modification, as well as debt forgiven as part of the foreclosure process, will not generally count as income.
3. You were "insolvent" when the debt was forgiven. The insolvency exception is a powerful tool for many people. If, on the day before the debt was settled or forgiven, all your assets (including your retirement accounts) were less than your total debts (including your mortgage)–then you don't have to count a 1099-C as income. File IRS Form 982, Reduction of Tax Attributes Due to Discharge of Indebtedness
4. The debt is disputed and the lender can't prove you owed it. If you don't owe the debt and the lender can't prove it's legit. you may be able to contest a 1099-C. Contact a tax attorney for help.
We aren't tax attorneys. If you need help with a tax issue, please consult a specialist. But if you've received a 1099-C and you think you fall under one of these exceptions, get in touch.

Nationality: POLBorn : 24.04.1985Place of birth: Sokolw Podlaski (POL) Height: 1.92mPosition: C
A strong body in the paint who can do a good job on the glass, Aleksandra Chomac is hoping she can squeeze onto the roster for EuroBasket Women 2011 and finally make a breakthrough with the senior National Team. She represented her country regularly at youth level and since that time, has experience in EuroLeague Women and EuroCup Women. While the 26-year-old has failed to settle for any length of time at the eight clubs she has been at in the Polish league, she normally produces and that won't have gone unnoticed by the Polish coaching staff. She has some post moves, can finish if given an opportunity and works hard - all attributes that work in her favour as she tries to bag herself a spot at a first-ever major tournament.

Published July 1, 2002.
We wanted a baby back ribs recipe that would produce juicy, tender, and fully seasoned meat, with an intense smokiness; in short, ribs that would be well worth the time, money, and effort. For ribs that were so flavorful they wouldn't even need barbecue sauce, we first brined them in a salt, sugar, and water solution, then rubbed them with a spice and sugar mix before barbecuing. A "low and slow" cooking method ensured that our baby back ribs would be moist.
For a potent spice flavor, brine and dry the ribs as directed, then coat them with the spice rub, wrap tightly in plastic, and refrigerate overnight before grilling. If you're using a gas grill, leaving one burner on and turning the other(s) off mimics the indirect heat method on a charcoal grill. Use wood chips instead of wood chunks and a disposable aluminum pan to hold them.
Dear Friend,
These days, it's pretty easy to get free recipes on the Internet. I'm sure a search for "roast chicken recipe" will turn up thousands and thousands. But, as with so much on the web, you should tread lightly if you don't know the source.
In America's Test Kitchen, our motto is, "Recipes that Work," and our mission is to be your trusted source for recipes that work every time you use them. Our test cooks spend their days obsessively testing recipes until they offer consistently great results. As we like to say here, "We make the mistakes so you don't have to."
CooksIllustrated.com is the only place you can find not only 20 years' worth of our foolproof recipes, but also objective ratings of cookware, and blind taste tests for hundreds of everyday supermarket ingredients (hey, without the proper ingredients and equipment you can still run into problems — no matter how good the recipe).
Let me make a simple, no-nonsense offer. Try out our website FREE for a 14-Day, No-Hassle Trial Offer. I'm pretty confident that CooksIllustrated.com will quickly become an invaluable resource for everything from quick, weeknight suppers to huge, holiday feasts for family and friends.
