With the Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls just a month away, dailies in the state have lined up extensive coverage plans while adhering to the Government's directions on paid news.
This time there are more than one crore young voters, many of whom would be casting their votes for the first time.
Keeping this in mind Rahul Kansal, Brand Director, The Times of India, said, "We have come up with the Lead India 2012 campaign, which will basically focus on youths as they will be playing a key role." He further said, "We want to know the opinions of first time voters and also want them to take active part in the elections."
Amar Ujala, one of the largest Hindi dailies in Uttar Pradesh, is covering the elections in two parts. The first part is 'Mahasamar', which is a report card of the poll candidates in the fray, on what work they have done. The second part is Jansamwad, which offers a platform to the people to give their views on the poll candidates and their expectations from them.
"There are more than 54 lakh young voters in UP, who are in the 18-22 age group. We have dedicated two pages for the elections – called 'Biggest Swing factor' and 'Power of Youth'. The coverage will comprise news related to the expectations of and the questions raised by first time voters," shared Alok Sanwal, Editor and COO, inext, the youth-centric paper from Dainik Jagran.
Sharing his paper's poll coverage plans, Daily News Activist's Editor, Dr Nishith Ray, said, "We are covering elections with our special feature 'Janadesh ki jung'. It will comprise two pages, which will contain all the happenings around the elections as well as the political candidates and their past record." He added, "We are scanning what the candidate has promised and what they have they done. We are also featuring questions raised by the people as to whom they wanted to represent them in the government and what were their expectations from them."
Paid news and poll coverage
The Election Commission and Press Council of India have issued strict guidelines for paid news. Speaking to exchange4media, Rahul Sharma, Under Secretary, Media, Election Commission, informed, "We have formed an internal committee that looks into such matters and takes proper action. We have also formed district level and state level monitoring committees, who keep a tab on media activities."
Speaking in this regard, Paranjoy Guha Thakurta, former Election Commission member and senior journalist, remarked, "There is a lot of chance of paid news, and some of the people may lose their credibility. Even I have received a complaint regarding a paid news incident in Gorakhpur." He added that the Election Commission and Press Council were working into these complaints.
Guha Thakurta affirmed, "There should be strict action taken by the police and the Income Tax Department against the person who is giving the bribe and also the one who is receiving it."
The guideline issued by the Election Commission for the media to check instances of paid news during elections states, "Newspapers are not expected to indulge in unhealthy election campaigns, exaggerated reports of any candidate/ party or incident during the elections. While reporting on actual campaign, a newspaper may not leave out any important point raised by a candidate and make an attack on his or her opponent."
It also stresses that the press is not expected to indulge in canvassing of a particular candidate/ party.

Hi people,
Me and two of my friends are visiting Europe this winter from 18th Dec to 1st Jan. We had planned to cover Milan, Venice, Florence and Rome till 26th and then move to Paris from 27th onwards till 31st and then come back to Milan on 31st to catch our flight back home on 1st. But going from Rome to Paris is expensive even by Ryan Air. Around 450 euros for 3 people. So we are scrapping Paris and now planning to go to Frankfurt as the travel from Rome to Frankfurt is cheaper. I want to know if there are good enough sights to see for us in city or nearby to remain in Frankfurt for 4 days. How much does travel from Frankfurt to Berlin cost? If the train is cheaper say 20-30 euro per person then we can think of going to Berlin as well otherwise we will remain in Frankfurt for 4 days.

The two major dinosaur news stories since Borealopelta have been the giant titanosaur Patagotitan and a shake-up in troodontid dinosaurs that, among other things, puts another stake into Troodon formosus. For some relevant thoughts on Patagotitan, I direct you to "On this occasion of receiving a new giant dinosaur" from a few years back. I'd instead like to spend some time on the dark and subtle art of taxonomy and how it relates to old names based on poor material.

At last, the "Suncor ankylosaur" takes its place among the described! With the description of Borealopelta, I can cross off one more from "Coming Attractions". (That's four and a half down, with half-credit on Daspletosaurus, and eighteen and a half to go.) The first thing I recommend that you do is to download the description and the supplemental information from here.

So, I'm one of the guys with long hair. When it's not straightened it's about 1.5 feet long of curl. Straightened it's about 2 feet. Also, it's brown. I'm thinking of cutting most of it off and dyeing it jet black. I've had the same hair for about 5 years and I'm bored. Any ideas for something interesting? For a referee, it'll probably end up like Jared Leto in Requiem For A Dream. Just something simple.
Most Helpful Girl
I'm all for cutting it (every guy I've ever seen with long hair was WAY more attractive, in my opinion, after they cut it short), but I'd advise you against dyeing it jet black. Plain black doesn't look natural on most people unless you already have plain black hair, and if you decide you don't like it, the dye is really, really hard to get out. If you want the look of black without it being so unnatural, try dyeing your hair with a dark BROWN dye. Some of them do get almost black, especially the really dark ones, but it's a lot softer of a color, so it won't clash with your skin tone as much.
(I'm talking based on experience with myself - I have naturally light brown hair and fair skin. If your hair is already pretty dark or you have medium or darker skin, then black is probably not as bad a choice)00|00|0
Thanks for the suggestions! Well, the thing is, I'm a pale guy with dark hair, already. And I used to have black hair and I miss it, haha. It's turned brown over the years. I don't really like it.

Some metropolitan houses and a lot of state houses are designed with a sump pump within the cellar. Attached towards the exterior free-air to a hose or even more lasting piping, a sump pump might help prevent a large number of bucks in problems to your house. That you don't have to be to become subjected to flood damage. A damaged water-pipe operating for just a few moments may place countless gallons of water in to the cellar. Home products or heaters, boilers, and saved gadgets may all become ineffective after being immersed under-water. Among the greatest methods to keep your sump pump would be to merely operate it periodically to make sure it's moving properly. Pumps resting in dried sets may dry up and enables the seals to shrink corrode from other components along with non-use just basic decay. It'll be a simple task that may save a good deal of misery whenever you actually need the pump when you have to utilize a hose to include water within the hole to check the pump.
Pumps may range from the little zero settlement push at about a hundred bucks in dimensions to some operate three-foot high push at about $ 200 or even more with exterior drifts. The pumps that are bigger merely eliminate more water faster. The pumps that are more costly also be seemingly better-built. I've one which is going strong and has ended two decades old. You may do some easy duties to obtain it working again when the push won't run. Using the push unplugged in the energy supply (never get one of these fix using the device blocked in, actually) when there is an exterior float observe if your pit is promoting within the drift. The push rises and change on. Using the generate of the hole and on dry-land, if no pit within the drift is personally increase and apparent plug the push in and reduce the drift to determine when the push triggers. Don't abandon the pump. If it's a slip drift, examine the float is not binding and free about the straight pole. Again personally run both the journey and also the drift change to determine when the pump works. Today before you connect anything in to the pump store, receive too heavy into your projects and be sure you have home capacity to the push. GFI system or a tripped breaker has fooled a homeowner. Examine your power first. Visit our website sump pump repair for more details
Interior repairs are a little harder. Some pumps just cannot be disassembled whatsoever. They're factory sealed models with inner drifts. An upgraded is the only choice if you should be in serious need at that time. In case your scanning this post and therefore are currently doing all of your appointment today, you might have time than investing in a substitute for you to deliver it towards the manufacturer to get a repair significantly cheaper. In case your push could be disassembled, examine brushes to the engines. Are they used or caught along to date that the commutator is no further touched by them? Substitute the brushes. Utilizing emery paper gently sand that is extremely good the armature face-to eliminate dust any dust or size. Blow-dry before changing it in engine, the armature clear. Make certain the pumps cord broken or isn't frayed. Make certain the plug isn't else broken or bent. Brushes could be had for some bucks for the most part electric supply shops or proceed search and the Business's site for components there.

Love Dr. DePuy. She is not only my doctor but I feel like she is a friend as well. When I go for a visit we talk about fun things like, a vacation, a new dress or a celebration coming up. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a good OBGYN.

Wonderful doctor and practice
Dr.DePuy recently became my doctor. I saw her for an overdue annual check-up. She diagnosed a minor problem that would require surgery. She answered all my questions prior to the surgery and did not make me feel rushed. The day of the surgery she talked to me before we went into the operating room and let me know what to expect. The day after the surgery her office called to make sure I was fine. I have recommended her to several friends and they all love her.

I'm so sad to see that someone gave Dr. DePuy one star! I feel that my husband and I were completely blessed to have such a wonderful staff of doctors on the College Heights OBGYN high risk team. Although Dr. DePuy was not my regular Dr, she was on my doctor's 'team', so I saw her for many visits. I felt that she was professional, caring, and thorough at every visit. She did not deliver my twins, but she stopped by my hospital room the next day to check on me and see the babies. I rave about Dr. DePuy and her colleagues; Dr. Pellini and Dr. Black! I would highly recommend her!

TERRIBLE bedside manner
This doctor was just awful. I had a terrible experience...she definitely needs to get her attitude checked, as she has the worst bedside manner. I asked her some simple questions about my birth control method options and she was rude and very uncaring and matter-of-fact. I felt rushed the entire time and felt like I was truly bothering her by even being in her office. I will definitely NOT go back.

This is a WONDERFUL summer cake. I made it for a potluck and everyone raved about it. I made mine in a glass 13x9 which baked for 30 minutes. This was pretty simple to make. It wasn't my favorite because I don't care for artificial flavors but since everyone else loved it soooo much and wanted the recipe I'm giving it 5 stars. I made it for them anyways.

What to watch and listen to this week: 'Hairspray Live!' on NBC, Undone podcast

Be sure to check out The Trans List on HBO Monday to see interviews with some of the world's most influential transgender people. And on Wednesday, the funky musical Hairspray comes to the small screen with a live show on NBC.

Plug in
Have you ever wondered what happened to the key players in a viral story after the news dies down?
How did an anti-disco riot impact the future of popular music? What happened to the ancient remains those kids found in the Pacific Northwest in the '90s?
One of Gimlet Media's newest podcasts, Undone seeks to fill in the blanks on those stories. Many thought these big stories were over, but they were really the first steps in something larger.
The first episode dives into the story of "the day disco died" in 1979. Disco Demolition Night in Chicago was supposed to be just a silly radio stunt, but turned into a dangerous riot with fans storming the field.
But instead of wiping out disco, the genre lived on in other forms of music and can still be heard in today's pop and house music.
The next episodes tell of fights to prove ancestry from ancient remains and to establish a museum honoring the Deacons for Defense and Justice, who fought back against the Ku Klux Klan.
In the same vein as last week's podcast pick, Reveal, Undone shows there's so much more to these stories than what's seen and read on TV and the internet.
Undone also takes it a step further by giving these huge stories an intimate voice with interviews with those closest to the story and expert insights on how the events led to something more important.

The transformation and industrialization of rural China is the underlying theme of this book. Using case studies of selected regions in south China where rural changes have been particularly dramatic, the book discusses and analyses: how, in the process of rural transformation, capital and labour are mobilized and reallocated; some of the problems and consequences of rapid rural industrialization; efforts of local governments to stabilize agriculture during the transition; and the loss of farm land from urbanization and rural industrial growth.

2934 Laurens Road
Greenville, SC 29607
A BMW is a joy to drive. They combine speed, power, and comfort into the Ultimate Driving Machine. You might think that a luxury car is out of your price range. Fortunately, here at Century BMW in Greenville, SC, we have a robust selection of used BMWs. No matter what you're looking for, our trained automotive specialists will help you find it.
A dealership is a safer place to buy a used car than a private party because we inspect every car before we trade it in. At Greenville, we hold ourselves to the BMW standard; if we wouldn't drive it, we won't sell it. Used cars also offer more value for your dollar. A new car loses 20% of its value over the first year, unlike a used car.
We offer a wide variety of affordable luxury cars. One variety we're proud to carry is the BMW 3 series. First released in 1975, the 3 Series has been constantly updated through the decades, and is still one of BMW's most popular Series. The BMW 3 Series offers near-perfect 50/50 weight distribution, and has up to 320 horsepower depending on the model. Available as a sedan, sports wagon, or GT, the 3 Series combines comfort with capability to deliver one smooth ride.
Can't find what you're looking for? Just fill out our Carfinder form, and we'll do our best to find it for you. Stop by out location at 2750 Laurens Road, Greenville, SC 29607 and take a test drive, or call us at (800) 340-5099. If you're in the market for a luxury car that won't break the bank in the Greenville, or Spartanburg area, we have just the thing you're looking for. Our trained automotive specialists will work with you to help you find the best car for your price range. Stop on by to schedule a test drive. Who knows... you might even end up driving it home.
Price includes $225 closing fee but excludes taxes, tag, title, registration and finance charges where applicable.

I'm thrilled to announce my next film, Rotimi Rainwater's "Sugar," is coming out on Nov. 22.
I play Bishop in the film, the voice of reason for Sugar, a runaway youth who becomes homeless on the streets of Los Angeles.
I'm told the film has a limited release and will be screening for a week at the Downtown Independent (251 South Main Street, Los Angeles, Calif.), starting on Friday, Nov. 22. Screenings will continue throughout November and December.
This film is a labor of love for Rotimi, who himself was homeless not long after serving in the military. His focus with this film is to increase awareness of homelessness, including how many young people are homeless today.
The "Sugar" team chose November as it is National Homeless Youth Awareness Month and they hope, through partnering with several national level organizations, sharing the film will spread the world about homeless issue. What's particularly important about the release date is it is during "Homelessness and Hunger Week," which features events and volunteer efforts from organizations and non-profits around the country. Many of these organizations will use "Sugar" to increase of awareness.
You can keep up on the screenings at the movie's website, www.thesugarmovie.com. This site also includes information on youth homelessness and offers information on the producers' campaign to feed 10,000 homeless youth.
If you get a chance to see it, please let me know what you think!

Mumbai, Feb 1 (UNI) Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has removed 217 hoardings from various parts of the city following a High Court directive.
Speaking to reporters here today, Additional Municipal Commissioner R A Rajeev said that the Corporation has removed 123 hoardings from heritage sites, 21 that violated CRZ regulations and 73 that violated the new guidelines laid by the BMC.
''We could not remove 245 hoardings due to stay orders from the Supreme and the High Court,'' Mr Rajeev added.
Mr Rajeev informed that in the month of November last year, 72,911 commercial and political banners, cut-outs and flags had been removed by the BMC and in January this year, as many as 37,765 such banners were removed. He added that the civic body has collected Rs 675,006 as fine during the period.
Commenting on the birthday greetings put up by the political parties for their leaders, Mr Rajeev said it is permitted to put them for 10 days after which a fine will be imposed.
''In most of the cases, the person who has put up the posters is not known and the corporation simply removes them,'' Mr Rajeev said.

Desire for a contract
As Rooney displayed in October 2010, when his week-long stand-off with the club resulted in a lucrative new deal for the player, there are times when it all boils down to money and status.
With Manchester City ready to break the bank for Rooney, he knew United had no option but to pay him what he was worth, and maybe a little bit more, just to keep him at Old Trafford.
Rooney no longer holds all the cards, as he did three years ago, but he knows he remains a big player at the club and may regard it as a slight that no deal was offered this summer.
So does he take what United will offer later this year or is he now set on pastures new and a lucrative deal elsewhere?
With his 28th birthday approaching, his next contract will be Rooney's last chance to cash in and he may find other clubs prepared to pay more than United.
Second fiddle to RVP?
Although David Moyes has stressed to Rooney that he does not regard him merely as back-up to Robin van Persie as United's first-choice forward, it is clear that the Dutchman has now dislodged Rooney as the club's star player.
As a player who famously strode into England's 2006 World Cup base by proclaiming 'the big man is back,' is Rooney prepared to stand aside while a team-mate takes top billing?
Rooney is regarded by many as the ultimate team player, however, and his performance against Chelsea on Monday added weight to those claims.
But having made it clear that his favoured position is as centre-forward, Rooney must displace Van Persie to reclaim that role.
If he is deployed out of position, as he was on several occasions last season, it could force Rooney to pursue attempts to leave.
The Fergie Problem
This is one issue that is unlikely to go away, with Sir Alex Ferguson revered by United's supporters and handed a job for life as club ambassador and director by the Glazer family.
Had Ferguson remained as manager, Rooney would have left United by now due to the breakdown of their relationship, but his ongoing presence around the club will be an itch that the player will not be able to scratch.
While Rooney fears Ferguson's influence could continue to be an issue in the background, the reality is that the former manager is likely only be a fleeting visitor.
Ferguson will not have an office at Old Trafford or Carrington and he will spend more time away from the club on ambassadorial duties than in the directors' box.
So the chances of the pair bumping into each in the corridors of Old Trafford are slim and, as a player he left his boyhood club as a teenager, would it really be that big a deal for Rooney to face his former manager?
Desire to play for Mourinho
Part of Rooney's determination to leave United this summer was attributed to his desire to play for Jose Mourinho.
The 'Special One' has always spoken highly of Rooney and has been glowing in his praise of the player since returning to Chelsea.
Rooney may genuinely yearn to experience life under one of football's most charismatic figures, but there is also a suspicion that the Mourinho factor was nothing more than a red herring designed to justify his attempts to leave United.
However, if Rooney really does want to play for Mourinho, David Moyes has the chance to change his mind by making a central figure at United once again this season.

Recent Meals (Restaurant Mini-Reviews)
d.o.c. Wine Bar & Trattoria (83 North 7th Street, Brooklyn, NY, 718-963-1925)
Iron Forge Inn (38 Iron Forge Road, Bellvale, NY 10912, 845-986-3411)
Ada (208 East 58th Street, New York, NY 212-371-6060)
Some old favorites were revisited during the holidays, courtesy of our Mother and her Christmas visit to Cafe Drake. Two Brooklyn standbys proved to have lost none of their luster, aging gracefully and with style. A wiser, smaller menu is the biggest change to Greenpoint's outpost of remote dining, Paloma, while the modernist concrete-meets-raw wood interiors have held up well. An even greater emphasis is placed on the cocktail menu and the house-infused vodka selection - the Mint Sidecar was a winner, and on our wish list is the Old Fashioned crafted with homemade bitters and vanilla-infused bourbon. A starter of dried cod fritters ($5.95) is extremely mild but enlivened by homemade onion relish and pickled vegetables. Even better were two fish entrees: a superbly cooked Black Sea Bass with Braised Root Vegetables ($13.95) and a Parmesan-Crusted Tilapia atop Couscous Salad ($14.95). The latter, despite starting with a fish generally characterized by its blandness, earned flavor points through its encasement in grated cheese and breadcrumbs, all fried to a crispy golden brown yet light and non-greasey. Dining companions championed their choice of the Braised Lamb Shank with Beet Polenta ($15). Paloma maintains a small but solid wine selection with several reds and whites available by the glass.
d.o.c. wine bar and trattoria can do no wrong it seems, and continues to boast one of the most consistent kitchens in the tri-state area. Dripping as always with Sardigian atmosphere, a recent candlelit late-night meal (post-Nutcracker at Lincoln Center actually) consisted of a perfect midnight snack of cheese and dried meats and salad and two excellent wine specials: an esoteric bone-dry red and an amarone with a velvet finish. And let's not forget the tiramisu!
It's no secret we love all things Indian, so difficult it is to restrain our enthusiasm for the Midtown East's Ada restaurant. The decidely upscale Northern Indian eatery soothes diners instantly with a warm cream and gold toned intimate room, pressed linens and elegant flatware. Equally welcome upon being seated is the presentation of a smart and carefully edited wine list. Two appetizers were both excellent, if perhaps too low in heat for Cafe Drake's fiery tastes: a Chicken Seekh Kabob is placed atop mesculun greens dressed in a tamarind vinegarette, while the Chicken Tikky consists of tender sliced poultry, fired in the tandoor oven, and enlivened by a tangy yogurt and cilantro sauce. Entrees reflected the French influence on cooking style at Ada; both a lamb loin in spinach sauce and Kashmiri-spiced beef were rich with cream and surprisingly served alongside fried cabbage and shredded wild mushrooms. No surprise however in the uniformly stellar quality of the complimentary dhal, rice and naan bread.
The charming upstate New York hamlet of Warwick is home to at least three respectable wineries. After all that tasting you'll want to lower your BAC with a solid meal, and the nearby Iron Forge Inn in Bellvale is a festive choice for a dinner splurge. Tucked away at the end of a scenic meandering side road, the historic building (dating back to the 18th century) is home to a lavishly appointed restaurant. Four dining rooms - most with fireplaces - are charmingly decorated in period detail, with tables unusually luxurious in size. We supped hearth-side in the Lincoln Room, and upon being seated, were offered an amuse bouche of potato cake with chestnut puree and herbed creme fraiche by our friendly and competent waiter. An extensive menu makes choosing difficult, but highly recommended as a starter is the cheese plate ($12) of local artisinal cheeses, all unpasturized and sided with wine-poached pears and a varied bread selection. Braised Short Ribs ($24.95) were meltingly tender after slow cooking in a Merlot-Balsamic reduction, yet still didn't steal the thunder from a bed of mushroom polenta, studded throughout with crisp fried parsnips. A must-have entree is the Seared Sea Scallops($26.95), delicately cooked until just warm throughout and sharing the plate with lobster bread pudding. If you can make room for dessert - and we did - by all means go for the warm banana pancake ($8), drowned beneath Valhalla chocolate sauce and local organic ice cream. Good house wines are available by the half and full carafe, and the small bar turns out superb versions of classic cocktails.

Christmas Candy & Carols
1/2 cup butter, melted / 1 cup brown sugar / 1/4 cup WHOLE milk / 1 3/4 - 2 cups powdered sugar / 1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
- Add brown sugar to melted butter in a saucepan and cook over low heat for 2 minutes.
- Add milk and stir until mixture reaches a boil. Remove from heat and cool.
- Gradually add powdered sugar until the mixture reaches a fudge-like consistency.
- Add walnuts, stir well and spread in a buttered 8 X 8 pan. Chill.
3 oz. cream cheese, softened / 1 Lb. powdered sugar / 3 T. water / 1 t. vanilla / 3 1-oz. squares unsweetened baker's chocolate, melted / 1 cup chopped pecans or hazelnuts
- Combine cream cheese, sugar, water and vanilla and stir until very smooth.
- Quickly, stir in melted chocolate and nuts.
- Spread 1 inch thick in a buttered pan and chill thoroughly.
Always willing to offer an opinion on what you should be playing at your next gathering, Cafe Drake is recommending two album re-issues for the Christmas season - Stevie Wonder's uber-classic Someday at Christmas, filled with classics and original tunes, and the truly inspirational 1974 release, Christmas with Julie, a collaboration between Julie Andrews and Andre Previn. Both are nostalgic yet ageless and perfect for holiday brunches and dinners. Hip kids will no doubt enjoy Aimee Mann's new CD One More Drifter in the Snow and Sufjan Stevens' three-disc surprise seasonal drop Songs for Christmas. Test driving tunes for a New Year's Eve gala? Once again we refer you to the priceless www.samurai.fm and their ready-to-go streaming mixes; especially fierce new uploads include Lindstrom live from Oslo and the retro stylings of Todd Terje live in Fukuoka.

Holiday Buffet in honor of Gunnhildur
Could David be the first person ever amused by Octavio's jokes?
Christine and the Christmas tree.
Gunnhildur needs food fast after the green tea martinis.
Thordis enquires as to the possibility of a fifth martini.
Cafe Drake is always happy to roll out the red carpet for friends visiting from Iceland, or more specifically in this instance, Gunnhildur of Iceland by way of Berlin (where she and Asi Asmmundson and kitty Api Jonsson currently reside). Holidays spirits were high as we sipped Mar-Green - Tinis around ye olde tannenbaum and supped on a winter antipasto buffet of baked pineapple dusted with chile, provolone cheese, cracked and marinated olives, broiled New Zealand mussels glazed with an orange-tomato sauce, wild salmon jerky, tomatoes, cornmeal-stuffed bell peppers, watercress salad and roasted cauliflower with raisins and anchovies. Guests supplied a plethora of red wines and even a white for contrast. Although the evening ended with a (literal) blaze of glory - a rogue candle burst its holder and set aflame a paper lampshade - all visitors, the proprietor of Cafe Drake and Sailor Page were unharmed in the making of this exciting evening. See photos and captions above of the dinner in honor of Gunnhildur.

From Russia, With Love
Soviet food feels ideal for cold weather, hearty and rich, substantial and warming during the frigid months ahead. The few recipes below are fully tested and approved by Cafe Drake. Why not throw a Czar Dinner Party on an icy January evening, utilizing the finest servingware you have and requesting guests arrive dressed to the nines? Start with a toast (champagne, naturally) and tiny boiled new potatoes, sliced in halves and topped with sour cream and caviar (the inexpensive black variety found in jars in gourmet shops works fine). Mussorsky or Tchaikovsky would be an ideal soundtrack to the proceedings. Just don't invite any Bolsheviks, have a waltz before dining, and the party should be a grand success!
Hailing from the Moldavia region, this side dish works best if you pay special attention to the second step and thoroughly pan fry the cabbage.
1 head green cabbage, slivered / 3 T. butter / 2 T. vegetable oil / 1/4 cup sour cream / 2 large eggs / 1/4 cup chopped dill / Salt & Pepper / 1 to 1 1/2 cups crumbled feta / 1/2 cup bread crumbs / 2 t. paprika / 5 T. butter, melted
- Blanch the cabbage in boiling water for 2 minutes then drain well.
- Heat the 3 T. butter in a large skillet and saute the cabbage for 15 minutes over medium heat.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and sour cream. Pour into the cooled cabbage. Add dill and salt and pepper. Mix well and transfer to a casserole dish.
- Sprinkle the feta and bread crumbs over the cabbage, then pour melted butter over all. Top with paprika and bake about 15 minutes.
A popular vegetable preparation throughout the Caucasus is called borani; basically almost any type of produce is cooked in butter with onions, garlic and paprika. Yogurt is stirred into the vegetables at the very end and heated carefully so as not to curdle. You could substitute the spinach here with green beans, cauliflower or Swiss chard.
5 T. butter / 1 onion, chopped / 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped / 2 bunches spinach, rinsed well and chopped / 1/2 cup plain yogurt / Salt & Pepper
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute for 10 minutes.
- Add the spinach, stirring and tossing it until wilted (about 5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in the yogurt and salt and pepper.
- Return skillet to a very low flame and warm through, mixing well, for 1 minute.
- Serve hot.
A simple recipe from the home kitchens of Russia's great metropolis. Fast to prepare and using only basic ingredients, the fish is kept succulent and rich beneath the layers of good quality mayonnaise and grated cheese.
2 lbs. cod, cut into 6-8 pieces / 3 T. fresh lemon juice / 5 T. butter / flour /2 large onions, cut into rings / 1/2 cup mayonnaise / 3/4 cup grated Gruyere (or aged white cheddar) / chopped parsley or dill for garnish
- Preheat the oven to 375.
- Place fish in a large casserole and rub with a little salt and pepper as desired. Pour lemon juice over all and let sit for about 15 minutes.
- Melt 3 T. butter in a large skillet. Remove fish from casserole, rinse out and dry casserole and set aside.
- Dust cod with flour and fry in skillet, turning only once, for about 8 minutes total. Remove.
- Add onions to skillet and fry for 10 minutes.
- Return fried fish to casserole and spread with the mayonnaise. Place onions on top and sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is quite browned.
- Serve very hot with chopped herbs on top.

What is Industrial Engineering?
Industrial engineers encourage people to collaborate and help businesses, laboratories and other institutions run more smoothly.
We have all experienced situations that could use the skills of an industrial engineer: long lines at the bank, paperwork that gets lost in the mail, stores that run out of products.
Industrial engineers are often called "big picture" engineers, because they look at systems as a whole and come up with ways to improve them. They help people accomplish tasks safely, quickly and cost effectively.
As an industrial engineer, you could design warehouses that store goods more efficiently, or you might use ergonomics to make workplaces safer for employees. You could even work at amusement parks, finding ways to move customers more easily through long lines. Industrial engineers can be found working in hospitals, banks, airline companies and government agencies.Click here to learn more!

When it comes to innovative ideas to launch startup companies, people have spared absolutely nothing. From cat cafés to companies that help you break up with your loved one, this world has seen it all.
However, when one entrepreneurial man noticed a decrease in number of marriages and an increasing divorce rate, he decided to make some money off of it.
The Seattle-based startup SwanLuv, headed by CEO Scott Alvy, funds couple's weddings free of charge, but only if they remain married. If the couple decides to part ways, they not only have to pay back the company the initial amount paid toward the wedding, but they also need to pay additional interest, which is based on the company's algorithm software.
Interestingly, the stronger your relationship, the higher the interest rates.
Termed as a "casino for marriage" by Alvy, the company offers couples up to $10,000 to fund their dream wedding.
The website is all set to launch in February and using it is as easy as simply signing up for the unique service, provided the couples get married within two years of signing up. Although it may seem like the company is cashing in on couples' divorce misery, the site is also working toward offering free marriage counseling.
Read: For This Group Of Women, Marriages Last Longer Than The Most
The CEO said SwanLuv is also looking into adding a few other stipulations to users' contracts such as including a clause that makes one party liable to pay off them entire amount in case the marriage fails due to abuse.
The company is currently accepting applications and hopes to get many couples together around Valentine's Day.
"It really depends on where you are in your relationship," Avy told GeekWire. "I'm betting on my relationship I've established with my soulmate."
Only time will determine the success of this startup but for now it seems to be a pretty good catch for those who aren't sure of their relationship.
"It's going to be a no-brainer for the ones it makes sense for," he added.
