Cellulite is actually fat deposits just beneath the skin. It appears as lumps or dimples, usually near the buttocks and upper thighs, and is most common in women. Building muscle can make cellulite harder to notice, and it helps you burn more calories. Although those cellulite deposits might never go away completely, burning body fat will make them shrink.
The reality is however, that without a proper diet and definitely exercise one cannot hope to see long term results with any of the above methods. Regular helps in burning fat and keeping the fit body round the year which means that cellulite can't easily form ever. In this article we shall take a look at some of the best exercises to get rid of thighs cellulite.
1. Booty Pushup:
How to Do:
- Start by sitting on the ground with your feet in front of you and your hands just behind you, then raise yourself off the ground.
- Keeping your left knee bent, lift your right leg off the ground.
- Keeping your foot flexed, extend your right leg all the way out as you bend your elbows so that your butt ends just a few inches above the ground.
- Push back up as you pull your leg in, then repeat.
- The story recommended three sets of 10 reps per leg.
2. Plie Squat Into Side Kick:
How to Do:
- Stand with your feet a little wider than hip-width apart and turn your toes out.
- Lower into a squat, placing your hands on your hips.
- Lower into a squat, placing your hands on your hips.
- Stand up, shifting the weight into your left leg, and lift your right leg off the floor.
- Kick your right leg out to the side, trying to get it parallel to the floor.
- Bring your leg back in and down, returning to the squat position.
- That's one rep. Do as many as you can in 30 seconds, then repeat with your left leg for 30 seconds.
3. Single-leg Supine Hip Extension:
How to Do:
- While lying on your back with your arms outstretched to the side, and your right knee bent, and your left leg straight, raise your left leg a few inches off the floor.
- Lift it to a point that it is in line with your right thigh and thrust your hips upward, attempting to form a straight line from your shoulders to the knees.
- Pause for a couple of seconds, squeezing your glutes, then lower to starting position.
- Do one set, then switch legs and repeat the same movement. This will tighten your butt.
- Go for 3 sets of 15 repetitions.

Journalist of the stars, Barbara Walters, visited Dr. Robert Lanza at his South Meadow Road estate last Tuesday. And she brought some friends.
"She was shooting a two-hour special about longevity and the new research with stem cells and regenerative medicine," Lanza said. "She had a whole crew of about 25 or 30 people. They had a generator set up and cables running throughout my house. They had makeup artists and lighting specialists. They turned the kitchen into a command center."
Lanza said his work as chief scientific officer at Advanced Cell Technology in Worcester drew the attention of producers who work for Walters some time ago.
"They kept calling me with questions about the science of longevity and stem cells," he said. "Eventually, they decided the special should be filmed at my house. They sent a crew a few days in advance to set everything up and rearrange my house."
Last Tuesday, the cameras began rolling. Lanza said he was nervous at first, but everything came together perfectly.
"They did a great job with the lighting," he said. "They got some spectacular lighting. Barbara took a walk through my botanical gardens outside. She kept saying how beautiful everything was. I was really pleased."
Lanza said the two discussed work that has been done to reverse the aging process at the cellular level, the prospects of longevity and even his renowned fossil collection.
"It will probably take another two or three months for them to get it ready," Lanza said. "It should air around March."
After filming throughout the day, Walters took Lanza out to dinner at the 111 Chop House in Worcester.
"There was a group of guys at a table near us and they starting staring over at us and whispering to each other," he said. "When we left, she wished them a happy Thanksgiving and they kept saying 'I told you that was Barbara Walters,' and 'I knew that was really Barbara Walters.' "

3ie Replication Programme
3ie's Replication Programme
3ie's Replication Programme was established as a global public good to help improve the quality and reliability of impact evaluation evidence used for policymaking. The programme is designed to highlight the benefits of internal replication of impact evaluations of development studies to the sector and to incentivise the conduct of replication studies of influential, innovative, and controversial impact evaluations of development interventions.
What is replication?
Replication is the most established method of research validation in science. The replications funded by 3ie are internal replications— those that use data from the original study, and possibly existing secondary datasets from the same location, in order to check the validity and robustness of the estimations and recommendations.
This selected bibliography attests to the fact that there are a growing number of replications in economics. For a multidisciplinary list of previous research on the practice of replication, see our replication methodologies bibliography.
Benefits of replication
Where the replications confirm that the impact evaluation findings are valid and robust, the Replication Programme lends additional credibility to these findings for use in policymaking. For impact evaluations revealed to have invalid or non-robust findings, the Replication Programme cautions policy makers in the use of the findings. The more general benefit of the programme, though, is improving the incentives for all impact evaluators to conduct careful analysis leading to credible findings in the first place
Watch Benjamin D K Wood, 3ie Evaluation Specialist for Replication, talk about the importance of replication in international development.
3ie is committed to encouraging open and healthy dialogue between replication researchers and original authors. To support this goal, we have created the 3ie Replication Programme Notification and Communication Policy.
3ie's Replication Publications
3ie's Replication Paper Series (RPS) is a publication and dissemination outlet intended to highlight and create a defined space for replication studies of development impact evaluations. The replications studies are published regardless of whether the findings support or question the results of the original paper. By encouraging researchers to undertake the replication of research in general, RPS contributes to the public good of improved impact evaluation research practices.
The Replication Studies Status Page allows the development community, and anyone else interested in the pursuit of improving the quality and reliability of evidence for policymakers, to see where 3ie's replication researchers are in the process of their replication studies.
To see a list of replication studies please visit our site for 3ie Completed Replication Studies.
Window 4: Financial Services for the Poor
Over the last four decades, financial services for the poor have become a priority in low- and middle-income countries. This has led to the development of multiple financial instruments, including microlending, microsavings, microinsurance, alternative collateralisation, prize-linked savings accounts, and others with different sets of risk profiles and targeted at poor populations in developing countries. Although financial services for the poor have seen significant uptake, questions remain if impacts vary based on population targeted, product design and delivery, risk management practices of the service provider, country of operation, associated skills transfer, and other aspects of the programme design.
3ie has therefore launched a fourth Replication Window: Financial Services for the Poor and is requesting expressions of interest from researchers interested in conducting replication studies.
Interested researchers must select an original paper that is included in the RW4 FSP Candidate Studies List. 3ie will only fund one replication study of each paper listed. This list includes seven highly influential impact evaluations of interventions of financial services for the poor related to mobile money, cash transfers, bank deposits, and other financial service interventions targeted towards underserved and unbanked populations in developing countries.
The deadline for submitting expressions of interest is 23.59 GMT, 2 August 2016. For more information about the application, please read the Request for Expressions of Interest. Additional information about eligibility can be found here.
A list of frequently asked questions about Window 4 is also available here.
Window 3: HIV Prevention
Three decades of work on HIV prevention have yielded a series of effective biomedical, behavioural, and structural interventions among specific population groups in small-scale settings and/or in controlled trials. To date, few of these have been adopted at a population level to prevent HIV. Although most of them show clear potential for a major impact in reducing HIV and AIDS and the associated human and economic costs, the importance of the effort to prevent HIV and the magnitude of effort required to scale up any evidence-based intervention require the study results to be carefully reviewed, understood, and confirmed.
3ie received over 10 expressions of interest from researchers to conduct internal replications of influential, innovative, or controversial impact evaluations of biomedical, behavioural, social and structural HIV prevention interventions. This is 3ie's first replication funding window with a specific thematic focus.
The RW3 team will review expressions of interest on a rolling basis and invite selected researchers to submit full proposals. Any researcher invited to submit a proposal must do so within 45 days of receiving the invitation.
3ie provides funding for impact evaluators to prepare their raw datasets and accompanying codebooks for public use and online release.
3ie's new Data Preparation and Release Window will provide up to $10,000 to authors of impact evaluations for preparing their raw datasets and accompanying codebooks for public use and online release.
Only authors of impact evaluations which are on the 3ie Replication Programme's Candidate Studies List, and authors of articles selected for an in-house 3ie replication study, are eligible for these funds.
The window is only available for datasets used in papers published before January 1, 2011. You can direct general enquiries about the programme to firstname.lastname@example.com.
For more information, read the Request for Proposals
Submission and Acceptance Policies for 3ie's Replication Paper Series
Replication studies should be prepared according to the instructions for authors document and submitted to firstname.lastname@example.com. Please refer to the instructions for replication paper series reports for an overview of the requisite style and structure of the final report. All submissions should include the signed cover form listed below.
Download 3ie Replication Paper Series cover form
Upon receipt, the managing editor will review the submission to ensure the replication study: --Is of an impact evaluation included in the Impact Evaluation Repository --Includes measurement and estimation analysis and/or theory of change analysis in addition to the pure replication --Is of acceptable quality and tone, and --Reflects transparent communication between the replication researchers and the original authors.
Assuming the above requirements are satisfied, the managing editor will send the replication study to at least one external referee. The managing editor and editor will also review the submission and may request additional inputs from 3ie's technical staff, particularly for sectoral expertise.
The managing editor will send compiled comments and revision requests to the replication researchers. The reviewer process iterates until the replication study meets 3ie quality and tone standards. The editor conducts a final approval review before publication. Upon acceptance, each study undergoes professional copyediting and proofreading.

Efren Peñaflorida gives Filipino youth an alternative to gang membership through education. His Dynamic Teen Company's 10,000 members have taught basic reading and writing to 1,500 kids living in the slums.
I just voted for Efren Peñaflorida in the CNN Hero of the Year. He is one of the Top 10 Heroes for 2009. CNN feature shares Peñaflorida's remarkable story:
For the past 12 years, Peñaflorida and his team of teen volunteers have taught basic reading and writing to children living on the streets. Their main tool: A pushcart classroom.
Stocked with books, pens, tables and chairs, his Dynamic Teen Company recreates a school setting in unconventional locations such as the cemetery and municipal trash dump.
Peñaflorida knows firsthand the adversity faced by these children. Born into a poor family, he lived in a shanty near the city dump site. But he says he refused to allow his circumstances to define his future.
"Instead of being discouraged, I promised myself that I would pursue education," he recalls. "I will strive hard; I will do my best."
CNN's heroes are ordinary people accomplishing extraordinary deeds. Although I have only voted for Efren Peñaflorida, each one is a hero for they all serve and help others wholeheartedly. They have all made a difference in the people's lives. They are indeed exceptional!
Vote for Efren Peñaflorida as CNN Hero of the Year. Voting is until Thursday, November 19, 2009 (6 a.m. ET).

"Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
Ancient footprints are everywhere.
You can almost think that you're seein' double
On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Steps."
- Bob Dylan
When I Paint My Masterpiece (1971)
The first-century B.C. poet Tibullus dubbed Rome the Eternal City, a name later celebrated by heavyweights Ovid, Virgil and Livid.
For some, Rome is nothing less than Caput Mundi - the Capital of the World.
For street photographer extraordinaire and raconteur Davide Dalla Giustina, Rome is home territory - and the tapestry of so many centuries of history is an extraordinary source of visual inspiration.
"Living in Rome is like having access to the most astonishing museum," the 41-year-old Davide said. "There is such an amazing mix of art, culture, history and modernity - the entire city is one vast Fellini film set."
Whether, it's Felini's risqué version of Petronious' Satyricon at the height of Roman Empire decadence, or the restless turmoil of Marcello Rubini (played so masterfully by Mastroianni) in La Dolce Vitae (The Sweet Life) … the film that introduced the celebrity photographer Paparazzo and now gives us the paparazzi … there is no city bookended by so much history.
"In my city," Davide said, "you can be a reporter, a street photographer, a photojournalist - or a simple tourist with a compact camera to document all these incredible visual gems. The possibilities are simply endless, and each day offers fresh opportunities."
The capital of Italy - a nation-state not formally organized until 1861 - is now home to 2.8 million people.
"The "Urbe" (city)" Davide said, "is like any person. It's full of discrepancies and interesting contradictions. The Eternal City can be one of the hardest places to live because of shoddy transportation, the craziness of managing the garbage … and, of course, the age-old issue of political graft and corruption."
Such is Rome, Davide said. It thrives with humanity in all its glory and imperfections.
Davide may be one of the best ambassadors of Rome. Originally from Venice, the street photographer is seldom without his trusty Leica D-Lux compact camera.
"The camera … and I do love my Leica," Davide said, "is a natural extension of me. When I walk the streets and see so many people … a treasury box that may well be locked … a little hard to open at first - yet their hearts are good and full of hope."
According to Davide, Romans are the friendliest and funniest people due to a sense of natural irony imbued with a sophisticated sarcasm - which some regard as the true measure of intellectual shrewdness.
"Moreover," Davide said, "my unconditional love for the people of Rome is only equal to my devotion to both art and history."
When Davide assumes the persona of street photographer, he talks freely with people along the streets, on the subway, and in the busses as if a genuine friend for years.
After all, Davide is a raconteur - the real deal. And both through his camera and his love of conversation combine perfectly to make him a natural story-teller, endlessly fascinated by how people in his city - the Eternal City navigate through their daily lives with purpose and hope and tenacity.
If you want to experience a uniquely vibrant city, buy the ticket and take the ride with Davide, as he adds to his masterpiece through street photography.

Thresholds' Ron Otto, Director of Recovery, speaks at the Illinois House Human Services Appropriations Hearing
March 12, 2014–Today, Ron Otto, Thresholds' Director of Recovery, spoke at Illinois House Human Services Appropriations Hearing on the state's FY15 budget. He spoke about his own path towards recovery, and urged lawmakers to extend the tax increase so that Illinois can keep individuals out of institutions, maintain quality mental health recovery services, and move towards managed, coordinated healthcare for the people of Illinois.
Read his full remarks below.
My name is Ron Otto. I'm currently employed at Thresholds as Director of Recovery. I'm a person with a history of serious mental illness, now fully recovered largely because of the services I received at Thresholds.
I've resided in 2 Illinois IMDs. Thresholds helped me to move out of these institutions where I was denied the opportunity to recover, and to participate in and constructively contribute to society.
I moved into Thresholds housing where I learned independent living skills. I received psychiatric care and counseling that was recovery-oriented. I received help finding and maintaining employment. I received help to return to school where I earned an accounting degree that enabled me to start a career. I began to live a normal life and eventually, with these services and supports, I recovered. I now own a home, am happily married and enjoy a satisfying career.
I am not unlike thousands of others who have, with the right services and supports, achieved mental health recovery. The State's investment in community-based mental health services has made a substantial difference in the lives of these individuals and the communities in which they live and work.
Illinois' behavioral healthcare system is now moving toward integrated service delivery, managed and coordinated care, and Medicaid expansion. All these developments aimed at strengthening Illinois' healthcare system demand that behavioral health agencies have the necessary resources and technology to reconfigure to meet these challenges.
Thresholds and our many partners have been very supportive of these developments and we are all leading the way as the State moves toward managed and coordinated care, but we do not have the resources and cannot do this under potential budget cuts that threaten the provision of even basic mental health recovery services for Illinois citizens, let alone the substantial resources required to move the State toward managed and coordinated healthcare.
It takes an investment in mental health recovery services in order for people to recover. Without that investment, people will be forced to return to institutions, becoming a major burden to the State and society.
I urge lawmakers to extend the tax increase so that Illinois can keep its citizens out of institutions, maintain quality mental health recovery services, and move successfully toward managed, coordinated healthcare for the people of Illinois.
Thank you.

You have heard it before. Children need consistency. They need familiar spaces. They need the comfort and reliability of routine.
You know what you don't get when you move? Consistency, familiarity, comfort and routine. Not at first, anyhow. Slowly we are moving closer and closer to that, at least the comfort part. Rooms are put together. Familiar items have mostly been retrieved. And come next week when school begins, I hope to find the routine we long for.
Yet still there are sleepless nights for me. A new space has different smells, sounds, quirks. I am quickly annoyed by the little things, like not remembering how the light switches work or always having to look at a map to figure out where I am going. As I am continually reminded, these are all normal reactions to a not so normal situation. Anyone will tell you, moving sucks.
So what about the kids?
How are they doing? Are they bothered, anxious, lost? You know I worried about this. You know despite every effort to choreograph as consistent a transition as possible, I still anticipated the meltdowns. That tends to be how I parent stressful situations. Lower those expectations. It will save you from disappointment later.
But guess what, the kids are alright.
They really are. No, they're more than alright, their thriving.
And why wouldn't they be?
Their whole wide and small world are cozy together in this home. The important things in life, endless imagination and people to love, are abundant and within immediate grasp.
They live next to a picture-perfect-midwestern-summer lake, for goodness sakes. Who can complain about that?!
I know without a doubt they are happy here, in their home, their neighborhood, and now, soon, their school.
And you know what, I am too. Because, you see, I am learning the most effective way to pull me out of an anxious funk is to check on the kids. How are they doing? Are they relaxed, happy, secure? Are they bothered by the nuisances? Or are they tickled by the little things?
Sure, kids thrive on consistency, familiarity, routine. But maybe it looks a little different than we think it does? Maybe the comforts of life, the people that matter and the moments that make us smile and shriek with joy, maybe that is enough.
Whether on a long vacation in a strange place, or in the middle of a rainstorm that ruins afternoon plans, or in the midst of a crazy cross country move, or maybe, as I anticipate next week, as she walks into that classroom ready to begin her new life as a student, I think it is always important to ask, so, how are the kids doing? Look at it from your children's eyes. It will probably always look a little bit sunnier.
So, how are the kids, you might ask me. And I would say, why don't you ask them yourself.
"I love this home." She might tell you as she gives you a room by room tour. "I love the beach!" He will shout as he runs into the chilly water not yet warmed by the afternoon sun.
Me too, I whisper to both of them. Me too.

By my reckoning, this bare root planting season the Habitat Aid hedge elves will have planted something over 130,000 plants around the country. There's some repairing of existing hedges but it's mostly new planting – woodland areas and new hedges, often on the sites of old grubbed out hedgerows. This makes me happy, particularly as they're all species native to Britain and plants grown from British stock by British growers. Great for the wildlife that depends on them, great for everybody. So long as they're looked after (!?) in a modest way we will have left our mark on the landscape for many years.
This season hasn't been without its troubles, however. Most folk use bare root hedge plants; they're cheap, easy to handle, and have a good success rate. They're planted when dormant, in ground that's not frozen or waterlogged. Here are the two problems. First off, as the more observant of you might have noticed, some early blossom has already been out for a while and the first shimmers of green are apparent in the hedgerows. It looks more like mid-March than early February out there. This means that there's a huge rush on to get plants in the ground before they break dormancy, in which case they react badly to being transplanted. Alternatively, if like us you have suppliers who can chill their stock, you can hold spring back.
We've needed to do this for a number of sites which are underwater. In my book it's probably not terribly bright building a solar park on the Levels, in a site surrounded on all sides by rhynes (deep drainage ditches) and where the local botany consists exclusively of rushes and sedges. I'm surprised the arrays haven't started to sink. Anyway, the chances of planting that particular site before April are zero.
Climate change is having an effect on how we're planting these hedges and what they'll look like. Sections of Hawthorn and Hazel will fail because they will rot in standing water. We'll replace them with Willow and Dogwood. The hedge will look much redder in the winter and spring. We are slightly moving old hedgelines in order to avoid really wet areas and tweaking mixes for some sites, particularly in the wetter west, to include more water tolerant species. The look of the countryside will change.
The methodology of planting will alter too. Specifiers – typically in our case ecologists and landscape architects – will have to be more flexible when it comes to planting times and species. A site can't be planted between November and end March if it's typically submerged for that period. More hedge mixes need to include wet loving plants; without them there can be some real disasters as "extreme" weather creates impossible conditions for some species.

Nurses Vow Not to Go Back to Iraq
Published: 05th July 2014 04:24 PM | Last Updated: 05th July 2014 08:20 PM | A+A A-
KOCHI: After about a month's long ordeal in the strife torn Iraq, 46 Indian nurses returned to their homeland today with most of them vowing not to go back risking their lives.
"We will not go back. There is no question of going back. We are not prepared to endanger our lives once again", said Sandra Sebastian, who arrived at the Kochi airport along with 45 other nurses to a warm and emotional welcome from Chief Minister Oommen Chandy and their relatives.
Sandra, hailing from neighbouring Kottayam district, said she had gone to Iraq on August 16 last year. Since the past four months she along with other nurses have not received salaries from the Government Tikrit Training Hospital where they were working.
"Earlier, we were a batch of 23 nurses and then 15 more joined us in February this year" she said.
On being held captive by ISIS militants, Sandra and Neenu Jose, another nurse, said though they had been asked to move out earlier, they refused to do so as the Indian Embassy had not given them permission to do so, she said.
However, on July 3, they were given only 15 minutes time to pack their bag and leave by the militants.
"They told us that you are all our sisters. You would not be harmed. But we did not believe them", Sandra said, adding, some armed doctors also travelled with them during the seven hours journey from from Tikrit to Mosul. They left the hospital at 12 pm in four buses and reached Mosul by 7 PM. "They were given food and bed to sleep on," Neenu said.
Suni Mol Chacko from Kannur said "they cannot be called terrorists. They are part of the local government".
The families of all the nurses, who had come in large numbers to receive their daughters, were moist eyed as they hugged and kissed them.
Elanji Balakrishnan from Ernakulam, said his daughter, Renu had gone to Iraq in August last year. The family had to take Rs 2 lakh loan to send her and she had not received salary for the past three months, he said.
"I had to mortgage 48 cents of land and my house to send my daughter to Iraq", the frail Balakrishnan said.
Our main focus was to see them come back home safely, now will
think about their rehabilitation. The Centre has... http://t.co/l2TwV3mvCR

A relief that words can't express. Welcoming the nurses at

All the nurses and their families thanked Chandy and Central government for all the help in ensuring their safe return to India. Of the 46 nurses, 45 hail from various districts of Kerala and one belongs to Tuticorin in Tamil Nadu. They said the militants treated them well.
Mareena from Kottayam was all in tears as she hugged and kissed her two-year-old daughter Reya and son Merin, whom she was meeting after 11 months. She said they were well looked after by the ISIS and had no complaints.
Shantamma, mother of Shalini, said her daughter had gone to Tikrit five months ago after taking Rs 5 lakh loan. The family is worried.
Chandy who arrived here late last night, received the nurses at the airport and the airport authorities ensured speedy completion of emigration and customs formalities. Media personnel had a tough time as they were not allowed anywhere inside the International arrival lounge.
Airport sources said besides Chandy, Health minister V S Shivakumar, PWD minister Irabhim Kunju, Chalakudy MP and Malayalam actor Innocent and Kottayam MP Jose K Mani were present at the airport.
Though most of them looked travel weary, there were tears of joy as they spotted their near and dear ones.
As soon as they saw Chandy, they said 'Thank You', 'Thank You'.

NORKA (Non Resident Keralites Association) officials had put up two counters to provide all help to the nurses. The nurses were given Rs 5000 each and offered free taxies to reach their homes.
Children from Janseva Shishu Bhavan, holding placards 'Stop War', politicians cutting across parties, and members of Nursing Associations were seen at the airport to welcome the nurses.
Seventeen of the nurses are from Kottayam district, 7 each from Kannur and Idukki districts and rest belong to other parts of the state.

The new legislation, known as the Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act, comes into force on Saturday, Dec. 6, which is also the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.
The day — the anniversary of the shooting deaths of 14 women at Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal at the hands of gunman Marc Lepine — has evolved into an occasion to commemorate all female victims of violence.
Those who work in the sex industry have expressed their disdain for the new prostitution laws, which they fear will result in more victims, not fewer.
"I think that it's a really sick and twisted day for it to happen," said Valerie Scott, one of three women behind the landmark Supreme Court case that declared Canada's legislation on prostitution unconstitutional.
"That day should not solely be for women who were murdered by Marc Lepine, it should also be for women who were murdered by Robert Pickton.
"We're excluded from all these events."
Pickton, a B.C. pig farmer, was convicted almost exactly seven years ago for the gruesome murders of six prostitutes, and had been charged for the deaths of 20 others.
The case was among those referenced by the Supreme Court last year when it struck down Canada's prostitution laws, arguing that they deprived sex workers of the ability to work safely.
Among other things, the law denied prostitutes the ability to properly screen clients.
"If screening could have prevented one woman from jumping into Robert Pickton's car, the severity of the harmful effects is established," Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin wrote in the high court's unanimous decision, released Dec. 20, 2013.
The decision gave the government one year to establish new laws, a deadline the Conservatives made clear they intended to meet. The new bill was introduced June 4, reviewed by both the House of Commons and Senate and granted royal assent on Nov. 6.
By the bill's own terms, it was slated to come into effect 30 days after that — which is how Dec. 6 came to be the date.
"We do not control the passage of bills in the Senate, nor when a bill receives royal assent," said Clarissa Lamb, a spokeswoman for Justice Minister Peter MacKay.
"But I will reiterate that we are proud of the fact that this bill and new resources demonstrate the government's commitment to meaningfully support those exploited through prostitution."
The government is too stuck on their message about positive elements of the bill to realize the date it comes into force could be offensive, said NDP justice critic Francoise Boivin.
"I'm sure if they had thought about it, they might have picked another date, if they were a bit sensitive," she said.
"But they don't care. They don't think about these things."
The bill criminalizes the purchase of sex as well as things like advertising or other forms of communication related to its sale, though it provides some legal immunity for sex workers themselves.
The government says the law gives prostitutes the ability to create safer working conditions for themselves. Critics question that, given that it makes most elements of the sex trade illegal.
Some advocates for sex workers went so far as to say Wednesday they're not convinced the Dec. 6 date was an accident.
Kerry Porth, a board member at Pivot Legal Society, a Vancouver-based legal advocacy group, noted that MacKay seemed unclear about Lepine's motives Tuesday when he spoke about the Montreal massacre in the House of Commons.
"It's unbelievably repulsive," Porth said. "What they are really doing is setting a particular type of woman aside — sex workers who choose their work — and pretty much indicating through these laws that they're fair game."
MacKay said it would be impossible to ever know why the 14 women in Montreal were singled out, leaving out mention of Lepine's self-professed hatred of women. He later tried to clarify his remarks.
"I was suggesting this is an issue where we should be respectful, mourning the loss of those women, mourning the loss that their families have suffered and endured for 25 years. That was it," he said.

Being Present with Brooke Lichtenstein
Happy Monday, mamas! It's time for another exciting #MomBossMonday feature, and I hope you love hearing from these inspiring mothers and business owners as much as I do.
Today, I'm talking with Brooke Lichtenstein, parenting coach, meditation teacher, and founder of Motherhood Awakened (MA), an online platform for Mothers to learn how to parent with mindfulness. She's also mama to two sweet boys age 3, and 20 months.
MA is a sacred tent where mothers can gather online to breathe, share their experiences, and learn the tools to parent with presence. Through group coaching, audio meditations, and courses, busy Moms can empower themselves with the knowledge to raise empowered children.
Brooke's approach of working from the inside out is what really stood out to me, because the inside work is so important to truly embracing a Happy Mom life.
Brooke started on a spiritual path at a young age. Before having children, she would spend weeks meditating with monks. When she started teaching meditation exclusively to women she said it profoundly transformed her whole life.
I often ask my #MomBossMonday women how motherhood affects their business and career. For Brooke, motherhood is the very foundation of her work. She's passionate about teaching women how to BREATHE their way through motherhood. And, her children provide endless inspiration for the topics she discusses with her tribe.
"My children help me create the content of my dreams! From bedtime meltdowns to watching my toddler meditate—motherhood has deeply influenced the curriculum for my courses and coaching."
We talked briefly about balancing work and life as a mother and business owner. Brooke stressed the importance of staying present.
"When I am with my children, I am there. When I am work, I am fully there too. For me, being unbalanced is a consequence of being too scattered. Things flow for me when I give each part of my life the attention that it needs."
Brooke shares how having her first child made her feel like she had been born right there with him.
"Being a new Mother was the most exciting thing next to being a second time Mother. The love I had for my son healed so many parts of me and my heart grew bigger than I'd ever imagine. But I was tired. Really tired."
Brooke's advice for new moms is to slow down and rest as much as possible, to just be with your little one. This pace may feel uncomfortable but it will feed you when you're spirit is starving.
Brooke shares about having to reclaim her body post baby. Changing her diet, her workout routine, and even her style to reflect her new life as a mama.
When I asked her how she found herself again after the birth of her children, she shared that the most valuable thing she did was to create a mommy mission statement:
"I created a Mommy Mission Statement and in that agreement, I declared who I was going to be as a woman and a Mother."
How amazing is a Mommy mission statement?! We should all sit down and declare who we are going to be as a woman and mother.
Brooke says she does the traditional self-care routine with weekly massages and mani/pedis.
But what has been just as important for Brooke is what she calls her "Soul-Care" —
"I gather with women. Women's circles are a place to bond in sisterhood, share stories, and release what no longer serves us. It's been a weekly mandatory practice for me for some time now."
Brooke creates impact in the world by offering a free weekly group meditation for Mothers online. She strongly believes our children are the ones who will deliver lasting impact on the world.
I asked Brooke to share with me the #1 thing that overwhelms her as a mom, and I had to laugh and nod along when she immediately said, "Having to cook three meals a day, every single day. I'm running out of ideas and they're just toddlers!"
When I asked her about her favorite part of motherhood, her answer was such a sweet sentiment and reminder for all mothers:
As a mama, you wear so many hats and often need to maintain composure in some crazy situations... Brooke's teachings on how to breathe to be able to conquer life in its many forms is so fascinating, relatable, and useful!
Don't forget to sign up for the Motherhood Awakened newsletter to find out when her site launches. Until then, though.... I have a special announcement below!
I'm SO excited to share that Brooke Lichtenstein will be joining us on stage on Sunday, May 6th in Los Angeles for the Happy Mom Conference!
This is the premier event for moms who want to make space in their lives to pursue their passions... to start a new career, to open a shop, to grow their businesses to new heights, and to live their happiest life.
The birth of a child is one of life's most joyous events. It provokes an indescribable, out of this world kind of love within us, but it also confronts us with some unpleasant feelings.
We imagine new motherhood to be a magical, love-filled time when we can't stop staring at our newborn, feel more fulfilled than ever, and want to enjoy every moment with the little miracle we've created.
But when you become a mom, your entire life changes overnight... and even though you hear that and you know it might happen, it's completely different to experience it for yourself.

August 15 - 1947 - Indian Independence Day
Indian Independence Day marks the occasion in 1947 that rule over the Indian subcontintent shifted from British rule to local rule. That simple statement makes the process sound much more straightforward than it really was. India first developed a national, unified identity under the British Raj, as Crown rule was known, and an Indian independence movement began in earnest around 1900. Then, the British Raj was actually divided into two states, Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan, which actually included both present day Pakistan and Bangladesh. This partition of India would continue to cause issues even after Indian independence.

Pop star Stan Walker has just announced his first NZ tour in three years. However, fans will have to wait until November for his concerts in 10 venues throughout the country. Tonight, Stan talks to Te Kāea about his tour and his new film, The Stolen.
Stan believes this upcoming tour will give back to his die-hard fans.
"It is home. It's one of the best places to tour for me. I've done so many tours different shows on a level beyond big stadiums and little stadiums like in places like Edgecumbe which is in the middle of nowhere."
Born in Australia, that has never hindered his love for his Māori side.
"I can't deny, I can't deny my responsibility and my calling back here. No matter where I am in the world. Sometimes I fight and I just want to move to America because as an artist I am striving to be the best."
At 19-years-old, Stan became a pop star overnight and is now taking on the challenge of acting in his upcoming film The Stolen.
"The Stolen is set in the 1800's in the colonial New Zealand. I am the only one that's a Māori a character named Matai left in his tribe because they got wiped out by another iwi. It's the biggest challenge physically because back then I do a lot of fighting, the physicality was the biggest challenge ever."
All in all, the 25-year old Ngāi Te Rangi musician believes that this is only the beginning of many more achievements to come in his career.

The Houston Rockets enter 2019 with lofty expectations after falling just short of defeating the Golden State Warriors last season. 2018 was a year of many accomplishments for the Houston Rockets, including the league's best regular season record and James Harden winning the NBA MVP award. However, the season came up short of the Rockets ultimate goal - beating the Warriors and winning an NBA championship.
The Rockets will face even more competition than they did last season after an off-season that saw the Western Conference get even stronger. Houston remains unphased by other team's splashy moves, instead focused on building off the remarkable progress of last season. The Rockets were one Chris Paul hamstring injury away from finally dethroning the Warriors and advancing to the NBA Finals, where they would have been heavy favorites. If last year proved anything, it's that the Rockets are legitimate championship contenders and the Warriors are totally beatable.
James Harden and Chris Paul are the engines that keep the Rockets in orbit. James Harden is coming off his well deserved MVP winning season, while Chris Paul is fresh off an impressive year himself and a brand new four-year contract. The two superstars form a dynamic backcourt duo of elite shooting and playmaking, which is complemented perfectly by the rest of the carefully constructed roster. Eric Gordon is one of the game's best sixth men, P.J. Tucker, is the ideal "3 & D" player, and Clint Capela has emerged as a top center in the NBA.
General manager Daryl Morey and head coach Mike D'Antoni don't shy away from the Rockets strategy, which is to shoot a lot of threes - a lot of threes. The Rockets play a fast-paced and entertaining brand of basketball that seems to set three point records as each game on the schedule goes by. A franchise built around analytics, modern trends, and superstars, the Houston Rockets expect to compete for a championship once again this season.

Earth Painting
Painting with dirt, mud, sand, and rock satisfies on a primal level. The entire process of collecting colors of earth, breaking any rocks down to a usable substance, and then feeling the gritty texture between your fingers as the colors come to life has a grounding and calming effect on the entire system.
More and more studies are coming out about how playing in the dirt helps boost children's immune systems; how being outside reduces stress; and how creating art enables people to feel empowered. Why not combine all of these?!
Above are the zoomed in images of a few of my Earth Paintings. The three on the left were created in my home town in Ridgway, CO from the dirt and rocks found on Red Mountain. The two on the right were created from the sand found in Port Washington, NY. The process of creating them is so very simple.
You will need:
- Buckets, bags or jars to carry the different colors of earth
- Buckets or bowls as your mixing stations
- Water
- Elmer's glue or something similar
- Loose canvas, various sizes and shapes, to paint upon
- Brushes of all shapes and sizes (optional)
- Shovel or hammer (optional)
To Do:
- Search for and gather colors of earth. This may be easy in the area you've chosen or it may take a little bit of exploring and possibly even gathering colors from various locations before actually painting. If any of these are in a more hardened rock form then you can use the hammer to break off smaller dust-sized pieces.
- Mix each color in separate bowls with 1 part water and 1 part glue.
- Use hands or brushes to scoop the mixture onto your loose canvas and paint to your heart's desire.
- Let dry.
- Shake excess dirt or sand and take home.
The last fun piece is hanging these pieces on the wall. Using thumbtacks you can hang them flat or squish areas of the canvas closer together so the piece hangs 3-dimensionally!

Part 1 here.
Part 2 here.
I'll just do part 3 now because I can.
A big ego helps
My ego has inflated massively in the five or so months I've been at my company. In some ways it's caused me a bit of trouble (it's certainly not a good habit for me to talk over my boss sometimes!), but it's been mostly beneficial. If I didn't believe I was all that and a bag of chips, I would have had less confidence in my skills, I would have felt less comfortable helping lead efforts to educate the new waves of SDETs we've hired the past couple of months.
Even long before that, when I began participating and giving presentations for my university's web developer club, I had to have some level of confidence in my skills for me to feel comfortable demonstrating them to the others. I had to believe that I had something they didn't have. When I became a secretary for the club, I had to believe I was the best man for the job to run for the position.
Your ego doesn't have to be massive like mine has become, and especially if you're first starting out you don't want to come across as a know it all. But you do need to be able to believe that your leadership is valuable, and therefore believe that you are more capable than other individuals around you.

5 Hamstring Exercises To Make You Run Faster
Hamstring Exercises for Speed Improvement and Injury Prevention
The hamstrings are the muscles at the back of your leg that make up 3/7ths of your thigh. They flex the knee, act as a secondary muscle to extend the hip and stabilize the knee. Primarily, they work as an agonist muscle to flex your knee and extend the hip but they also work as an antagonist muscle to control the contraction of the quads when you extend your leg. Imagine kicking a football without your hamstrings there to decelerate your leg after you've struck the ball. Something would likely break. This action is just as important for the hamstring as flexing the knee especially, within running. In this article, we will show you 5 hamstring exercises to make you run faster.
The role of the hamstrings in running
With each knee drive the hamstring contracts to bend the knee. This makes the leg a shorter lever to swing through at a faster rate than with an extended leg. As you drive the foot into the ground, the hamstring lengthens under tension so that the knee can extend to drive the foot into the ground. This is an eccentric muscle contraction and creates a high amount of force. Each foot contact you make, the hamstrings contract to provide a stiff and stable knee so that the hips can extend and propel you forwards. There is still discussion whether the hamstrings act in an isometric or eccentric fashion in the down swing phase of a running stride and on contact. There is no doubt that extension occurs at the knee. But a body of research suggests that this could be due to the stretch of tendons whilst the hamstring is acting maximally in an isometric contraction rather than the hamstring actually lengthening. This may also depend on the level of the athlete. More advanced athletes are able to utilize the stretch and rebound of the tendons whereas, weaker and less experienced athletes may rely on the lengthening of the hamstrings to a higher degree.
Either way, the hamstrings play a vital role in sprinting and are required to accept and produce high forces with each foot contact. For this reason, it is vital that we train the hamstrings in a particular way. It is obvious that we need strong hamstrings to run quickly but we also need very fast hamstrings to recoil as quickly as possible.

5 hamstring exercises to make you run faster
Here are 5 hamstring exercises you can use to condition your hamstrings for sprinting and high-speed running. Ensure you stick to the order that has been provided. Notice that the movements progress from slow to fast movements, from high force to low force and from eccentric to isometric to concentric. This is to prepare the hamstrings for the next movement. If you skip a step, you risk a decrease in performance and at worst, an injury.
- GHR/ Nordics
The first movement is an eccentric knee flexion movement. This creates a high amount of force through the hamstrings and prepares them for the forces during running. This movement is a knee flexion movement which, targets the distal part of the hamstring. You will feel it when you attempt it for yourself. If you have a glute ham raise machine in your gym, lock your feet in and place your knee below the curve of the pad. With your hips extended, lean forwards from the knee and take the tension on your hamstrings. Lower yourself down under control until your legs are straight and you are hinged over the big pad. If you are strong enough, drive your knees into the pad and bend the knees to raise you back up. If you aren't strong enough to raise yourself back up, don't worry. The focus of this movement is on the eccentric movement at the knee. If your gym doesn't have a GHR, either go to a better gym or kneel on the floor and grab a friend to anchor your feet down as you lean forwards. This variation is harder to control because the pivot now becomes your knee and the lever as long as your body. Catch yourself on the ground with your hands and help yourself back up.
Perform 3 sets of 3-5 reps depending on your strength level.
The Romanian deadlift combines both eccentric and concentric contractions at the hamstring. However, the knee is fixed in a slightly bent position and the hamstrings work to control the flexion and contract to extend the hips. Start by deadlifting a barbell into a standing position and place your feet directly under your hips. Bend your knees just slightly so that the legs aren't locked out. With a neutral and rigid spine position, start the movement by reaching the hips backwards and hinging at the hips. Reach far enough that you are flexed from the hips and start to feel a stretch in the hamstrings. Ensure your spine hasn't flexed and that the knees stay in position. Stand up from the flexed position and extend the hips. Your hamstrings play a vital role in stabilizing the leg during hip extension and assist the gluteus to extend the hips. Perform 3 sets of 5 reps at a weight you can control and maintain posture.
- Slider Hamstring Curl
The hamstring curl is another knee flexion movement but this time, the focus is on the concentric part of the movement. With each knee drive the hamstrings contract to swing the leg through. The faster you are able to make this contraction, the faster the knee drive and the higher your stride frequency. Lay on your back with a low friction slider under your heel. With your legs straight, lift your hips up so that your weight is supported through your shoulders and heels. Pull your heels towards your body and drive your hips upwards into a bridge position. Push your feet out into a straight laying position but don't let your hips touch the ground. The focus is on the speed of the heel recovery and the control of the lowering phase. Perform 3 sets of 5 reps focusing on the speed of contraction.
- Hamstring Heel Kicks
Now, you have built strength and speed through the hamstring. It is time to increase the speed that the force is applied. Hamstring Heel Kicks is a controlled way to exert force quickly and more importantly, condition the hamstrings to accept force quickly. Lay on your back but place your heels up onto a small soft box between 15-30cm. Raise one leg up off of the box and your hips into a bridge position. Start by marching the heels into the box one by one whilst keeping your hips raised. When you are comfortable with the movement, increase the speed by driving the heel into the box and swapping the feet in mid-flight. This will force the hamstrings to accept force in an isometric fashion very quickly, much like during a foot contact in a sprint.
- Running Mechanics
All of this specific strength work and speed work is great but in order for it to transfer into your sprinting you need to apply the force and speed in a running fashion. Start with a high knee kick ensuring that you can maintain your posture and keep your hips neutral when you drive your foot into the ground. With each step, try and claw the ground underneath you and pull your foot backwards as you make contact to propel yourself forwards. With each knee drive, your hamstring contracts with speed and lengthens under tension during the downward phase of the step. After completing these, perform hamstring heel picks. This is focusing on your heel recovery after your foot has made contact on the ground. They aren't heel flicks that you might see in an under 15's football warm up. Stay tall and keep a normal running gate. Focus on pulling the heel towards your bum as you drive your knee forwards. Actively pick your foot up off the ground as you make your stride. Perform these drills in sets of 10-20 meters at a time and repeat for 3-5 sets.
- Sprint
Okay, we said 5 hamstring exercises but this article is about running faster and we had to make the assumption that you will be performing sprint training alongside your strength training. Otherwise, what would be the point? If you want to become fast, you need to train fast. Performing these 5 hamstring exercises won't make you faster without transfer. When you have built strength and speed in your hamstrings, you need to learn how to express this newfound force and velocity.
Use these hamstring exercises as progressions. Spend at least 2 weeks on each movement before moving onto the next. This will prepare you for the increased velocity that each progression entails and this sequence will help you increase your force production at the higher speeds. Make sure you are still performing sprints and linear speed training for this hamstring work to take effect.

From curlers to warheads: Tributes paid to hairdresser-turned-Woman of Steel in Sheffield
An 'inspirational' Woman of Steel whose wartime work in Sheffield's munitions factories helped power the Allies to victory has died, aged 95.
Audrey Walton worked the lathes at Hadfields in Attercliffe and later at Newton Chambers in Chapeltown after being conscripted in 1941.
She often worked night shifts and was frequently forced to don her tin hat and dash to the air raid shelters as bombs fell - an experience she later described as 'terrifying' - but she conquered her fears to loyally serve her country.
Audrey, who lived in Hoyland, Barnsley, was presented in 2016 with a Star-sponsored Women of Steel medal in recognition of her service.
She died peacefully at Barnsley General Hospital after a short illness earlier this month.
Her great nice Kate Oldfield said: "Aunty Audrey was a wonderful inspirational woman who always looked on the bright side. I feel lucky to have known her and she will always live on in all our hearts."
Audrey was born in Birdwell in 1922, the younger daughter of pit face worker Bruce and Rosemma Oldfield.
After leaving Market Street School in Hoyland, she trained as a hairdresser, practising ladies hair curling techniques on her long-suffering brother.
Having just qualified when war broke out in 1939, she was told by her employer her services would no longer be needed, so she bought a bicycle and began a successful mobile hairdressing service.
She later opened a hair salon on Hoyland Road in the early 1960s, helped by her eldest daughter Lana, where cutting and setting hair was only part of Audrey's role.
"Mum said it was like being in a confessional for some customers," recalled Audrey's daughter Adele.
"They would tell her all sorts of personal things they wouldn't normally reveal and it helped them to get them off their chest."
Audrey married Harold, a Royal Artillery gunner who served with distinction during the war in Italy and Africa and later worked as a welder, in 1942.
They had four daughters - Lana, Allyson, Kay and Adele - and delighted in throwing parties for family and friends at their home on Barber Street, in Hoyland.
Her granddaughter Amy Taylor said: "Gran was the linchpin of the family. The deep, heartfelt care she expressed for her family extended beyond her children and grandchildren, to the outer reaches of the family tree.
"In return for her love, she expected regular phone calls: woe betide you if you forgot!
"Her increasing cantankerousness as she moved into her twilight years, although frustrating at times, was just another of her many endearing qualities. I will miss her more than I can say."
Audrey is survived by three daughters, six grandchildren and four great grandchildren.
Her funeral will take place at Barnsley Crematorium on Monday, February 26, at 12.10pm.

Year in Review | 2017 Favourite Moments/
Overall I would say that 2017 treated me well. It definitely had it's down moments, but I would say that there were more high points than low ones.
I'm starting at the end but one of my favourite moments of the 2017 was meeting up with my old team from my last job. It had been more than a year and half since we'd all been together. Many of us are at different places now in different cities so it's hard to see one another and keep connected. It was a cold snowy night as we all sat down for dinner, the conversation was lively and full of laughter as we got caught up on what was going on each other's life. There was lots of reminiscing about the good ol'days, but change is inevitable. It was such a good night, as we left we made plans to connect again in 2018, I'm already excited to see everyone again. It was a high point for sure.
This year has been a year of family moments. I've been to 3 graduations, it was just amazing to see my siblings succeeding and moving towards their dreams and goals. One of these graduations resulted in an epic trip. It was my first cross country trek, we drove from Toronto to Halifax, in 2 days, to see my brother. Not something I ever thought I would say, I figured I would fly but driving was nice too. As we drove through Quebec and New Brunswick It was nice to see some of the companies that I'd dealt with in the past. Time was short so we didn't spend too much time site seeing, though we did take a trip out into the Halifax Harbour.
My brother was part of a fashion show where he had models walking the runway in his collection, clothing that he had designed and sewed. So it was great being their to support him, it was also nice just to see him and catch up a bit. All in all it was a great adventure.
Back at home, I made a few visits down town with friends and explored new neighbourhoods and areas. One trip was an art installation in an old warehouse called Edit. It had 3 floors of various booths, projections and interactive displays. I sat in a Tesla, learned about fish farming and explored a Micky Mouse house. My favourite was the Great Gulf Homes installation that had 100 pine saplings in test tubes hanging in the air. It was beautiful.
I also visited Yorkville area with my bestie. We visited our first Ordinary Store at Bloor Station and perused the designer stores that the lined the streets, Louis Vutton, Holt Renfrew etc. After that we made our way down Younge street and headed to the Eaton Centre where we drooled over Ted Baker clothing and coats. It was a beautiful summer day and it was well spent.
As I mentioned before many of these moments revolve around family and friends . Time spent connecting and socializing. As much as I love to spend time by myself, I really enjoy time spent with family. It grounds me and helps me to see what's truly important. Hanging out with my niece, visiting my grandpa and catching up with a long lost aunt who I hadn't seen in years while also exploring the city of Hamilton, are some moments that I cherished.
Watching my niece grow is a joy and pleasure, though she's young you can see her unique personality developing. She's such a character, you can already see that she has strong opinions about certain things.
Rounding out my top moments this year is a big one. I got a job. For the past year or so I've been looking for new employment and I finally found a place or rather they found me. The events regarding my journey to employment are a testimony that I'll share at another time. Needless to say it's been quite a relief to get this position and I thank God for it.
These are the moments that made my year. What moments are you looking back at in 2017?

After withdrawal of agitation, farmers, police clash in Madhya Pradesh
In a hurriedly called press conference on Monday, chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan blamed "a few people for giving a wrong direction to the farmers' protest".india Updated: Jul 11, 2017 17:30 IST
Within 24 hours of the announcement made by a farmer leaders' faction and BJP leaders about the withdrawal of agitation, farmers clashed with police in Neemuch on Monday. The clashes resulted in injuries to at least two police personnel and many farmers.
Police caned protesters and lobbed tear gas shells to control the crowd. A number of two-wheelers were also damaged.
In a hurriedly called press conference on Monday, chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan blamed "a few people for giving a wrong direction to the farmers' protest". "If this does not stop, such people will face consequences," said Chouhan.
He said a Rs 1,000 crore price stabilisation fund would be created. Onions would be purchased at Rs 8 per kg at 48 places in 22 districts.
Police said the trouble started in Neemuch when farmers staged a chakka jam at Bharbhadia Square and police intervened to clear the traffic. When the farmers didn't budge and allegedly pelted stones, they were caned. However, farmers alleged that police indulged in violence and unnecessarily beat up farmers. "The police beat up even those who were not taking part in the agitation," said Tarun Baheti, a farmer.
The constables injured in stone-pelting are Vishal Narwale and Kailash Kumare. Superintendent of police, Neemuch, Manoj Kumar Singh, led the team as the situation worsened.
Abhishek Deewan, city SP, said a report had been lodged against nearly 200 persons, including 30-40 named. Eight of the accused had been arrested and 40 bikes seized from the spot.
On Sunday, RSS affiliated Bharatiya Kisan Sangh announced that the agitation had been called off after a meeting with Chouhan. However, the Bharatiya Kisan Union leading the agitation refused to do so.
Policeman airlifted for treatment
Pawan Yadav, an assistant sub-inspector, who received serious injuries in an eye in Ratlam during stone pelting by agitating farmers on Sunday, was airlifted to Chennai for treatment on Monday. Chouhan announced the state government will bear all the expenses of his treatment.
Amit Singh, SP, Ratlam, told HT that he had video footage of how a Congress worker allegedly tried to incite people to attack police and torch their vehicles.
Singh said, "Cases have been filed against 51 people and over 100 unidentified people in connection with the violent incident on Sunday evening."
