TogetherVCAN's SOCIAL SANCHAR with SHRI Vijay L. Sonavane
This programme has helped in making the Government and Citizens interaction much simpler and convenient. It has also played a very important role in bringing to light the various issues and problems faced by the consumer and to arrive at solutions. The first Social Sanchar was held on 27th November, 2014 with Dr. B. K. Upadhyay, Joint Commissioner of Police, Traffic, addressing the issues related to Mumbai Traffic.
Our recent Social Sanchar was with Mr. Vijay L. Sonavane, Advisor to Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) at the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), on 22nd December 2014.
Mumbai is the only city with multiple Power Utility Suppliers and therefore there are overlapping areas, which brings in a unique set of challenges. Hence we chose the issues related to Electricity to be addressed by MERC and get the right standpoint. As a Regulatory Body, MERC has to strike a fine balance between the consumers, suppliers and contractors.
Mr. Sonavane spoke at length on the various issues related to the supply, distribution, costs of electricity supply in the State as well as Tariff determination process and the need for Energy Conservation.
He touched upon;
- Salient features of the Indian Power System, Challenges in the Indian Power Sector as well as Power Systems in Mumbai: Generation, Transmission & Distribution and the peculiarities
- Overview of tariff procedures and consumer's participation in tariff process and Retail tariff for Mumbai Licensees and Why we do not have Uniform tariff in Mumbai
- Roles & Responsibilities of Distribution Companies as well as Roles and responsibilities of the Regulatory Commission
- What are the plans to meet rising demand in Next 10 Years? Generation/Transmission & Distribution
- Steps taken by MERC to promote Energy Conservation/ Demand Side Management (DSM) and the schemes and why it is important in Mumbai
- Is the competition in retail in Mumbai really helpful for Mumbai Consumers
- Vision for Mumbai Distribution Systems
In Mr. Sonavane's talk, some interesting facts about Energy Usage emerged;
In Homes:
- 23% of energy for cooling, 29% to lighting,
- 12% to heating water, 36% to other appliances
In office buildings:
- 34% goes towards cooling,, 29% to lighting,
- 9% to heating water, 28% to office equipment, ventilation & other misc. uses.
A three legged stool"
- Energy Conservation: Use Less
- Improve Energy Efficiency : Use Technology & "do more with Less"
- Renewable Resources: Invest in Future
Mr. Sonavane elaborated the MERC Vision for Mumbai keeping in mind the challenges etc.
- Mumbai has a demand of approx.. 3400 MW & growing at 3-4% per annum. More than generation, it is the transmission capacity to bring in power to the city, that has become critical
- A greater push is required for encouraging Solar Roof Top generation, as it would not only be environment friendly, but will also reduce the burden on transmission
- In absence of space for new substations, BMC need to work with utilities for underground substations and public parks could be utilized for the same
- With the recent Appellate Tribunal order, Tata Power will be allowed to use Reliance Infra network. This will bring implementation of carrier, content separation in Mumbai ahead of other places, as also proposed in the Electricity Act Amendment Bill, introduced in the Lok Sabha on the 19thDec 2014.
- BEST being Local Authority, is exempted from obligation of offering its network on OA. Though in the proposed amendments, this provision is likely to be dropped. But, as long as transport subsidy is built in the tariff, Consumers using BEST's network will also contribute towards it through various surcharges.
- The proposed Amendments also require the Commissions to promote Smart grid & Ancillary services. This would go a long way to promote decentralized Renewal Energy generation.
Proposed Amendment also allows Govt. to direct licensees to include in their electricity bill, other dues of the Govt.
Thereafter, there was a lively interaction by the audience present as well as the online audience and couple of question raised, are shared.
Q. We switched over from reliance to TATA a year ago. Since then MERC has put additional charges. Customers like us who are on TATA are also paying to reliance. Should we switch back?
Ans. No, you should not switch back. You should wait till next year. Every year we decide the tariff. So, these go on varying.
Q. Why does one have to pay for loss incurred by the BEST?
Ans. You are right on your part. I will talk to the BEST officials and try to resolve it.
Q. I want to transfer my meter but suddenly the BEST says Rs 17800 are pending since 1998. Please tell me what to do?
Ans. It can go to the consumer redressal forum as it is a long pending issue.

Have you ever considered why grooming your dog is so important? For one, it helps your pooch look their absolute best. Grooming is also about much more, though! Learn about the importance of grooming your dog from a vet in Lafayette, LA:
Skin and Fur Health
Brushing and bathing your dog keeps the skin and fur healthy and grime-free. Brushing, in particular, spreads essential skin oils through your pooch's coat to moisturize the fur naturally. Plus, brushing sessions provide you with an opportunity to examine your dog's body for lumps, bumps, lacerations, and anything else out of the ordinary.
Reduced Shedding
Brushing helps trap loose fur in the implement itself, reducing the amount of hair you find around your home. The aforementioned skin oils that brushing spreads also help to reduce shedding initially!
Bonding Opportunity
Don't forget about another benefit of regular grooming: it allows you and your pooch to spend quality time together for a good reason. The relationship you and your dog have is not to be taken for granted—deepen and strengthen it by regular grooming sessions!
Would you like a recommendation on a good dog brush or canine-formulated shampoo? Contact your Pet Clinic Lafayette, LA today.

Hey People! As you know, I was in Thailand for a few days this month and I simply cannot wait to share my experience with you. Before I start the post, I want to say I had a great time on the whole in Thailand and a huge shout-out to the Thai Authority of Tourism in Mumbai for giving me the opportunity to experience the land of smiles adequately. Also, I have vlogged on this trip as well and I shall be attaching the links below each post. For this trip, we decided to fly with Thai Airways and I quiet loved the airplane food. It was a 4.5 hour journey from Mumbai to Bangkok & it was comfortable. When we arrived at Suvarnabhumi Airport, the immigration process was reasonably quick because we already had our visas. But in case you're opting for visa on arrival, be prepared to spend at least 1.5 hours at the airport. So as soon as we arrived in Bangkok, off we went to check into our hotel – Anantara Siam.
Anantara Siam is part of the Anantara group of hotels, resorts & spas. They've hotels across Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Maldives, Qatar, Sri Lanka, UAE, Vietnam and Thailand of course.
This one is located at the heart of Bangkok – at Rajadamri Road, to be precise. We were a 5 minute walk away from the Erawan Shrine (famous Buddhist temple that houses the four faced statue of Lord Brahma). And those who love shopping, the hotel is situated along the Ratchaprasong shopping and entertainment district. So on the average, Anantara Siam connects well to the entire city, the nearest BTS being – Chit Lom station, which is again just a 10 minute walk away from the hotel.
As soon as I walked into the lobby of Anantara Siam, we were offered a warm welcome drink and there was a certain sense of simplicity and natural luxury surrounding the place. It did not feel like I was in one of the busiest cities in the world. I felt like I was in a soulful, green & pacific resort. What attracted me most was the Thai architecture that ruled over the walls of the lobby. The hand painted silk ceilings, traditional paintings and glorious gardens created a feeling of serene exclusivity in the midst of a bustling city.
Anantara Siam has a total of 354 rooms & suites, 11 dining & entertainment options, a 24 hour health club, a spa, and an outdoor swimming pool. For all the days we were there, we had buffet breakfast at Madison & it was scrumptious! There's also an in-house café called 'Mocha and Muffins' – I am in love with the name!
So, I loved the room I was staying in – it was a premier room roughly about 450 square feet in size. I'd say it was very spacious! You can take a look at my vlog below where I review my room. The room has 3 wardrobes, a well-stocked mini bar, a huge LED screen TV (where you'd even get ZEE TV) and a comfortable workstation for those who want to work plus of course, complimentary Wi-Fi. I liked the fact that Anantara Siam put in a lot of effort to personalize one's stay. As soon as I arrived, the LED screen had a personal welcome note for me and I even received another welcome note from the General Manager on the centre table. They really make the guests feel special.
Also, I loved the detailing that went into the designs of the lamps, carpets & the sofa prints. The bathroom is big – there's a bath tub as well as a shower cubicle along with a well-equipped sink which includes your basic amenities like toothbrush, toothpaste, hairdryer, shower cap, soap, lotion etc. I would like give a special mention to the lighting of the bathroom – it was JUST right. I have been to many hotels and each time, the lighting is disappointing. It's often too dim or harsh. On this trip especially, I had to dress up & make up properly since I was also working and nothing impressed me more than the lighting in the bathroom. Lol.
But above all, you'd be happy to know that Anantara Siam offers a complimentary smartphone to every guest and this is fabulous. If you are travelling to Bangkok for work or leisure, it's not always convenient to buy a local sim card. Anantara Siam lets you use the smartphone during your stay at the hotel and you just have to return it in the proper condition when you check out. The phone has complimentary 3G services, talk-time and some Bangkok specific apps loaded on it which would help you in planning an itinerary. You can also make free calls to your home country. This is a fantastic concept, if you ask me.
The rates for rooms at Anantara Siam start at approximately USD 185 (INR 12,500) per room/night for one person. You can find out more here – http://www.anantara.com
Once again, do check out my travel vlogs. As you know this is my first time attempting a travel vlog, so your feedback is important. Do check out the videos & let me know what you feel.
Episode 1 reviews Anantara Siam hotel.
Episode 2 and 3 are about what all you can do when in Bangkok.
Episode 4 is about Rayong, a city less discovered located on the outskirts of Bangkok.
Episode 5 is all about Koh Samed.

Ashwani Kumar Chrungoo, President, Panun Kashmir said that the issue of continuous stay of Rohangya illegal immigrants in Jammu is developing into a very serious threat to the security and law & order situation in the J&K state and Jammu province in particular.
It is surprising to note that despite warnings over the last one year in this connection, the government and the political class has failed to take the issue seriously. The Cabinet sub-committee on the issue has not come out with a clear cut policy on the alarming bells on the stay of these illegal immigrants. We cannot absolve the role of those politicians who were responsible for their camping in the Jammu city and its suburbs over the last fifteen years neither the society can shut its eyes towards their illegal stay in J&K State.
These illegal immigrants who also include some souls from Bangladesh as well have been allowed to be engaged in regular economic and social activity in the Jammu city.
Their comforts in their stay are being taken care of by the political class and some NGOs and their detection and deportation is contested and also given a communal colour. Panun Kashmir takes strong objection to the silence of the political class and the government on the issue. We demand that necessary action to detect and deport these illegal immigrants be taken up with the Union Home Ministry on an urgent priority.
Once again, the protagonists have started talking about autonomy in the J&K State.
It is a fact that the plank of autonomy is fundamentally a facade of separatism based on the strong feeling of Muslim majoritarianism. The Art35A and Art370 have been in vogue for the last more than six decades in the state and have simply created a feeling of a "State within a State".

Gamma Knife services at University College London Hospital
University College London's National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery (NHNN), is the UK's and Europe's largest neurological and neurosurgical hospital. For 150 years it has been providing treatment and care for all conditions that affect the brain. It is a globally recognized center for research and training. In October 2012 NHNN enhanced its services to patients through the acquisition and commissioning of a Gamma Knife radiosurgery machine. On April 1st NHS England informed NHNN that it could no longer treat NHS patients and that all patients waiting for treatment should be transferred to other hospitals. Patients have refused to be transferred and there are currently over 50 waiting for treatment, this is growing due to the specialist nature of the hospital.
We call on NHS England to immediately lift its ban on NHS patients being treated with Gamma Knife at University College London's National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery at Queen Square?

Were "Non-members" buried by Quakers?
Tuesday 02 August 16 23:12 BST (UK) »
I have been researching the Guthrie family of London , Middlesex.
In particular William Guthrie b 1766 and buried 1826 at Bunhill Fields.
On Ancestry I found his death and what looks like a Quaker burial. It would appear that his death was recorded in a Quaker Meeting at Peel's Court, John Street, Westminster.
The record states that he was "not a member".
Does this mean he was not a member of that "Court" but a Quaker or that he had a Quaker burial but was not of that faith?
I found it interesting that his son Isaac Guthrie was baptised at St Mary, Finchley in 1829 with his daughter Hannah. He was born 1791 so may have converted?
Also that Isaac named one of his sons "John Pritchard Guthrie"
Could the name "Pritchard" be a nod to his Quaker roots?
Any input would be appreciated.

"Not a member" means that he was not a member of the Society of Friends at the time of his death. It may be that he had previously been a member, but had been 'disowned', perhaps for marrying a non-Friend. Or he may have been attracted to Quakers and attending meetings, but without actually applying for membership. Or it may be that a close family member had been a Quaker.
I can see that the Quaker registers in RG 6 have 10 records relating to Guthrie burials (of 7 individuals), but no births or marriages, so it's unlikely that your Guthries were ever in membership. These individuals look like they relate to a single couple and some of their children. My guess is that one or both of the parents had been attracted to Quakerism and had been attending Quaker meetings, but had not applied for, or been accepted into, membership.
Your guess about the Pritchard name is a possibility, in that it could be a name on the mother's side of the family. I can see that there were quite a few Quaker Pritchards, including some also buried at Bunhill Fields. But there is no birth for an Eleanor Pritchard, who could qualify as the mother in your Guthrie family. It could be a maternal-line name from an earlier generation, but equally it might not necessarily imply anything about Quakers in the family.

Hello Ben,
Thank you for replying.
William Guthrie married Eleanor Tarsey at St John, Clerkenwell in 1789.
I assume that he was the Quaker and she was not.
I believe that there were "Guthries" in Scotland that were of the Quaker faith but I have not traced where William came from originally.
The Guthrie burials all appear to be of the same family as you suggest. Maybe the "Pritchard" name comes from William's line.

In the air – but not airborne
While all the usual suspects gear up for Eurosatory, it is worth taking some time to consider what some of the less well-known guys will be displaying.
One that particularly stood out was the Sky Sapience HoverMast – 100. Described as a 'tethered hovering machine' by the company, the HoverMast is a quadcopter which can be tethered to the back of a vehicle and driven around for border surveillance and other such applications.
The company will be demonstrating the capability of the HoverMast at the show in Paris, outdoors – twice daily. It might be worth going along to the spectacle of it going up and down its tether as it is demonstrated from the back of a moving pick-up truck.
Sky Sapience explained that because the quadcopter is tethered it is not considered an airborne vehicle, so it is able to avoid standard air control regulation. Maybe this is the best way of getting your quadcopter in the air without the hassle of those pesky regulations…
Another company that will be present with their not-quite-a-UAV offering is the French company A-NSE, which will be displaying their T-C350 tethered balloon.
Carrying out the same kind of missions as the HoverMast – border surveillance, ocean surveillance and infrastructure surveillance – the T-C350 has less of a catchy name and is somewhat less mobile than its quadcopter counterpart.
However, aerostats are certainly not to be disregarded as both the US Army and Department of Homeland Security have made use of the air-filled constructions.

A Sales and Marketing Director of a VC backed company was dismissed without warning. The company's reason for refusing to pay any compensation was that it was obvious that his position was redundant so he should have seen it coming. Despite attempting to negotiate, we got nowhere until we issued tribunal proceedings for our Client. It is rare for us to have to do this as nearly all cases settle.
However, in this case we did issue proceedings. Within the 21 days given by the tribunal for the company to respond, it agreed to our terms of settlement, agreed a compromise agreement, and concluded the deal. We were helped in this case by having sensible solicitors on the other side and by us taking a pragmatic and commercial approach to both the amount of settlement and the terms. The Client has expressed delight at the result. His total bill was only about £400 plus VAT more than the money that the company offered for legal costs so he was doubly happy.

Sweet lawd lady! You mustve turned everyone's head that night! Smokin!
NBA2k13 Party at 40/40
The other night my beau invited me out to the 40/40 club for an NBA2k13 hosted by Jay Z. I was excited to come and show my support especially since my beau designed the exclusive basketball of the game. I have never been to the 40/40 club and I am not sure if they do this all the time but the hors d'oeuvres were delicious. I don't drink so when I saw food, I immediately became a happy camper. These were no ordinary small hors d'oeuvres either, we enjoyed a whole meal lol. There were also a bunch of Xboxes throughout the club too where people enjoyed playing the new NBA game. I mean, I was in heaven as I am a gamer too but I am not really into sports lol. I was also very delighted to meet a few of my gorgeous readers at the event as well, it is always so sweet and humbling to have people tell you they love your blog. That was definitely the highlight of my night. We also got to see Jay Z and I could have sworn he was taller but overall he seemed like a really humble dude. There were more celebrities there but I was more focused on the mini-cheese burgers lol (they were so good!). Good food plus video games plus good music and good company equals a great time. I wish I could give you a more detailed post on my time at this event with my beau so there aren't just pictures of myself but there are some things I like to keep to myself <3. Come on, I can't give it all away! 😉
I wanted to be simple and chic in a little black dress. This one is by Stop Staring.
My stockings are by Agent Provocateur and my satchel is by Betsey Johnson. I wish I knew who made my shoes as they say "Made in Italy" but that is still a mystery.
Before the madness. 40/40 had such a pretty bar!
Full house. Thank gawd we were upstairs. I hate being in overly crowded spaces lol.I felt like Jessica Rabbit lol
Jay Z portrait by Billi Kid. I love that NBA2k13 has so much art and artists incorporated with the whole movement.Good times!
8 Comments on "NBA2k13 Party at 40/40"
You looked beautiful as always. Glad you had a great time.
Ur nails look lovely too! Uh huh and who's this beau??
It was nice meeting you at 40 /40 Vinny Vandal!
I have shoes that look very similar to those except burgundy. They're by French connection
Love that dress. I got to go to 40/40 last May for some boxing match, but it was nice inside and the food they had was delicious. Fun times, but it like Vegas…anything that happens at 40/40 stays at 40/40!

Wealth Quotes
162 Wealth quotes:
Wealth Quotes Hell QuotesCategory:
"The odious and disgusting aristocracy of wealth is built upon the ruins of all that is good in chivalry or republicanism; and luxury is the forerunner of a barbarism scarcely capable of cure."
Wealth Quotes Aristocracy QuotesCategory:
"That some should be rich, shows that others may become rich, and, hence, is just encouragement to industry and enterprise."
"Superfluous wealth can buy superfluities only. Money is not required to buy one necessary of the soul."
"I am absolutely convinced that no wealth in the world can help humanity forward, even in the hands of the most devoted worker. The example of great and pure individuals is the only thing that can lead us to noble thoughts and deeds."
"What right have you to take the word wealth, which originally meant ''well-being,'' and degrade and narrow it by confining it to certain sorts of material objects measured by money."
"Every man of ambition has to fight his century with its own weapons. What this century worships is wealth. The God of this century is wealth. To succeed one must have wealth. At all costs one must have wealth."
"There must be a reason why some people can afford to live well. They must have worked for it. I only feel angry when I see waste. When I see people throwing away things that we could use."
"The day is not far distant when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away ''unwept, unhonored, and unsung,'' no matter to what uses he leave the dross which he cannot take with him. Of such as these the public verdict will then be: ''The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced.'' Such, in my opinion, is the true gospel concerning wealth, obedience to which is destined some day to solve the problem of the rich and the poor."

Catching up...
Just so you think I wasn't only eating waffles... LOL I actually switched it up and made pancakes Sunday morning using this recipe from veggieboards.com. Was a ridiculously easy recipe... and pretty yummy. I topped 'em with maple syrup and a sliced banana. These cakes didn't turn out as light and fluffy as 'regular' pancakes. Not sure if it had anything to do with me subbing the water with soymilk, but otherwise it was yummy. I think the batch made about 9 good-sized pancakes. I ate two and froze the rest for later! :)

July 1 – It's gold again for Reed Smith LLP, as the firm earned another top ranking in the 2015 Women in Law Empowerment Forum (WILEF) certification process.
"We are never surprised to be ranked among the nation's best at empowering female attorneys," said Sandy Thomas, Reed Smith's Global Managing Partner. "Gender equity is among this firm's longstanding priorities and we all work hard to achieve it every single day; that's why we welcome and celebrate WILEF's acknowledgement that our firm remains a leader in this key performance area for 2015."
Reed Smith's 2015 Gold Standard Certification is the firm's fifth in a row, a significant accomplishment considering the certification's inaugural year was 2011. Reed Smith is one of only two firms in the United States that has met all six criteria for Gold Standard Certification every year.
Law firms with at least 300 attorneys in the United States were eligible to participate in the 2015 Gold Standard Certification process. This year's criteria required that a firm's women attorneys comprised:
- 20 percent of equity partners or a third of the non-lateral attorneys elevated to equity partner in the past 12 months
- 10 percent of its chairs and managing partners
- 20 percent of its primary governance committee
- 20 percent of its compensation committee
- 25 percent of its practice group leaders or department heads
- 10 percent of the top half of the firm's most highly compensated partners
Several industry analyses of the 2015 results cited Reed Smith's 2015 Gold Standard Certification performance and its noteworthy consistency in meeting all six criteria in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. Nationwide, just 44 of the firms seeking certification this year met at least four of the six criteria, one fewer firm in 2014.
"Reed Smith is able to post these results because it is unique among large law firms," said Kit Chaskin, global director of the Women's Initiative Network of Reed Smith (WINRS). "Over many years, senior management, and men and women at Reed Smith have worked together with our clients to address the realities facing women who are seeking to build sustainable and fulfilling careers in a changing marketplace. It's frosting on the cake to earn a fifth consecutive Gold Standard Certification from WILEF for our empowerment results."

How to Help Grandma Avoid Scams Online
November 3, 2016 by admin · Leave a Comment
Article written by Technology Innovations, news and articles about technology innovators
As online shopping becomes more and more prevalent, the chance for identity theft and other cyber scams only increases. While seasoned online shoppers can spot suspect sellers and and phony "deals", plenty of sites exist that are designed to fool grandma and other less than tech savvy individuals into giving up sensitive information. To help grandma from getting burned while shopping online, suggest that she follow these precautions:
Use Gift Cards
This is the safest way to purchase from any online shop. Gift cards do not require buyers to divulge any financial information. The only information needed will be a name and home address.
Use A Dedicated Online Only Purchase Option
Paypal is probably the best known of these, but Amazon and Google also offer similar services. The advantage of these payment options is that when the buyer goes to shop online, the store cannot see any credit card information. They also offer reimbursement should something go wrong.
Use Common Sense When Going The Craigslist Route
While Craigslist purchases can be made using cash, they almost always require a face to face meeting between buyer and seller. To ensure a safe transaction, always meet up in a public, well lighted place, and bring along as many friends as possible.
Check The Bottom Of The Web Page
Many online stores will list groups that certify them at the bottom of their home page. Certification from sites like the Better Business Bureau and GeoTrust are a good sign.
Costbuys is a new online shop for monthly orders of bulk household items so you can live a healthier lifestyle for less.
How to Make Your App Stand Out from the Crowd
June 30, 2016 by admin · Leave a Comment
Article written by Menlo Software, news, articles and tips on software and more
Today's app market is very competitive. For this reason, it is tough to make your app stand out from the crowd. Mobile app developers Los Angeles should not lose hope, though.
There are many ways of promoting your application, right from the point when a user thinks about downloading it.
Encourage Customers to Spread the Word about the App
According to recent research, recommendation from friends or family is the second most popular way users find new mobile apps.
It is therefore advisable to encourage your users to share the goodness with their social network. The result is several new app downloads. You get customers who have a positive view about your application.
Android app development is not just about developing an app. The tasks that come after are equally important.
Hook Customers with Intelligent On-Boarding
Your app has already been installed on the consumer's phone. Your work now is to deliver value as well as a fantastic customer experience. To ensure your users see value in your product, set up an automated onboarding program.
Use Personalized Communications to Drive Amazing Customer Experiences
The next step is to keep users engaged with your app. As an app developer, you want your users to keep coming back. To achieve this, make sure to engage with them in a more personalized way.
As an iPhone app development company Los Angeles, it is important to note that getting users to download your app is just the first step. For your app to stand out, you should focus on delivering excellent customer experience to every user.
If you need mobile app developers in Los Angeles, trust Halcyon Innovation. Never outsourced, Halcyon works directly with your team to produce the best app for your business.
iPhone vs Android: Choosing the Right Platform for Your Business App
April 17, 2016 by admin · Leave a Comment
Article written by computech blog, we bring you the latest on technology and internet
As any of the nation's large mobile app developers in Los Angeles can tell you, one of the keys to creating a successful app is choosing the right platform. Some apps do better on iPhones while others are best on the Android platform. Which is best varies depending on your app's specific operation and goals.
Cost – In some instances the cost of developing an app is about the same for both platforms. Android, however, offers a much wider variety of devices which could lead to costly redesigns while trying to make one app work across multiple interfaces.
Revenue- iPhone apps typically generate more revenue through in app purchases than their Android counterparts.
Timing – Requiring about 40% more code, Android app development takes twice as long as iPhone app development. Android apps, however, carry a much shorter approval time and may get to market faster.
Market – iPhones are huge in the United States but Android is the better choice if your target markets are in Asia, Africa or South America.
Engagement – While Android apps reach a wider audience, every iPhone app development company Los Angeles knows that their users are far more engaged and loyal than their Android using counterparts.
Updates – iPhone users are much more likely to update their apps regularly and stay connected. Note, however, that Apple has much stricter polices about how often new features and updates can be deployed. iPhone is the winner here if you plan your updates carefully, though.
Overall, the iPhone app is typically the winner for most, but not all, apps. A wise and widely adopted strategy for app developers has been to design their app for Apple's platform first and then later roll out an Android version. Your business will have to weigh all the pros and cons to find the best strategy for your particular app and company goals.

Lebanon's government approved late on Wednesday the conditions for companies bidding in the country's first offshore oil and gas exploration license, as Israel and Cyprus press on with plans to develop their fields in the contested waters of the Mediterranean.
A list of qualified explorers is expected to be issued by March 31 and they can place bids starting May 2 for six months, Lebanon's the Daily Star reported. Royal Dutch Shell, Cairn Energy and Cove Energy are among companies that have expressed interest in bidding for a license, the newspaper said.
Though Lebanon's parliament passed legislation in 2010 that was supposed to pave the way for the exploration licences, the country has lagged behind Israel and Cyprus, which have discussed the possibility of constructing liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals or a pipeline to transit gas. The discoveries off the coast of Cyprus are estimated to be worth about US$75bn, according to Nicosia-based Sapienta Economics, an economic research consultancy, while Israel's range between US$140bn and US$240bn, depending on different industry estimates.
In September, the Daily Star reported the size of the country's offshore natural gas deposits in the eastern Mediterranean is greater than that of Cyprus and Syria, citing Spectrum Company, which carried out 3D seismic surveys off the southern shore of Lebanon. The surveys estimated the country has about 25 trillion cubic feet (tcf) in the 3,000 sqkm zone, which puts the country's estimated findings ahead of Syria and Cyprus combined.
For Lebanon the potential fuel reserves could help the country lower its public debt, among the highest in the world, which reached US$57.6bn at the end of November, according to the Association of Banks in Lebanon. The country amassed the debt in the reconstruction phase following the end of civil war in 1990 and a month-long conflict with Israel in 2006. However, any extraction or production is unlikely to take place before five to eight years, according to analysts and industry experts.
In its first study in 2010 of the Levant Basin, the offshore Mediterranean region which stretches from the north of Egypt to the north of Lebanon and south of Cyprus, the US Geological Survey estimated the area has about 122tcf of undiscovered, technically recoverable natural gas and holds 1.7bn barrels of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil.
In 2009, Israel discovered what is known as the Tamar field in the Mediterranean Sea, which has 10 tcf of natural gas. Then, a year later, it discovered the Leviathan gas field, the largest discovery of its kind for a decade, but nowhere near the world's biggest gas field, which is shared by Qatar and Iran. In 2011, two new offshore natural gas fields, Sarah and Mira, were also discovered, by an Israeli company.For all the latest energy and oil news from the UAE and Gulf countries, follow us on Twitter and Linkedin, like us on Facebook and subscribe to our YouTube page, which is updated daily.

Beauty and Form in the Work of Sidney Wade
SIDNEY WADE has published five collections of poems, the most recent of which is Stroke (Persea Books, 2008). Her next, Edge, is forthcoming from Persea in April 2013. Her poems and translations have appeared in a wide variety of journals, including Poetry, The New Yorker, Grand Street, and The Paris Review. She translates the poems of Melih Cevdet Anday and Yahya Kemal, among others, from the Turkish. She taught at Istanbul University as a Senior Fulbright Fellow in 1989-90. The poetry editor of the literary journal Subtropics, she has also served as President of the Association of Writers & Writing Programs and Secretary/Treasurer for the American Literary Translators Association, ALTA. She has taught in the MFA@FLA Creative Writing Program at the University of Florida since 1993.
Many of your poems seem very grounded in place, whether a natural landscape or the city of Istanbul. How would you say place affects you as a poet?
Landscape has a profound influence on me, always has. And not just in terms of my writing — I respond physically and spiritually, as well as aesthetically, to the landscapes I inhabit.
The speakers in your poems have very close connections to their landscape, be it a natural or urban setting, and, as humans, they seem to be placed on equal terms as the objects, particularly natural objects, rather than lording over them. A poem like "Locus Amoenus" in Empty Sleeves, for example, conveys a beauty that is both elegant and humble in its inclusiveness. Can you speak to your aesthetic in terms of the relation between human nature and nature?
I have long objected to the Judeo-Christian assumption that humans were put on earth to dominate its other orders. I'm quite sure we were, instead, as so many indigenous cultures have recognized forever, offered the opportunity to cooperate with creatures and other living presences on whose good graces we depend for our sustenance, and, of course, our lives.
Reading your translations of Turkish poems and your original poems set in Istanbul, I feel transported to a richly textured and ancient world. I imagine living in Istanbul had a strong affect on your aesthetic?
Living in Istanbul hugely broadened my understanding of beauty. I've never before or since had the great good fortune to live in a place that I felt sure was the center of the world. Aesthetically, Istanbul inhabits a deeply poetic space. I think this is due to the fact that it is so self-conflicted — it is at once European and Asian, the seat of Christian and Islamic empires, ancient and contemporary, conservative and liberal, filthy and clean, foreign and familiar. All these contrasts noddle along, nudging at everyone from every angle, insisting you take in both sides at once, just as Keats recommended artists accept the world, with what he called "negative capability." Istanbul's divided soul owes its life to uncertainties, mysteries, and doubt, and my experience there honed my sense of the central importance of this tension in art. And of course, coming into contact with the awe-inspiring artistic achievements that have accumulated over the centuries, both Eastern and Western, in that center of the world, significantly affected my aesthetic.

This is the freezer door wher i kept my little rosettes made of razor thin orange and lemon slices while i was the chef at Ciccones an italian restaurant on King St West in the fashion district of Toronto.
The little rosettes were frozen into shape and i would place one on each plate that i sent out bordered by leaves from fresh mint or Italian flat parsley like a little flower garnish. They worked exactly the same as a small sherbert. A palette cleanser.

"For me, it was so much fun because I'm from Vancouver. Bob O'Billovich (Toronto Head Coach) will tell you that Vancouver used to shutdown on Sundays and the next day we had a party at my dad's house. Most of the team was there, even some of the Lions. To win the Grey Cup over B.C. in Vancouver was really special."

That place sure was amazing. we stopped in Nashville on the way down and on the on the way back but the music in New Orleans out did Nashville when it came to the quantity of it that you could hear just walking around.
I was in Ottawa in november of 2004 to see a concert by Jethro Tull. The night after, i found this cafe where Melissa was playing. i had my sketchbook with and drew this while she was on stage. Melissa noticed and came over and we chatted after her set. she was nice enough to sign her Stranded in Suburbia CD for me. I think she also took a drawing!

No More Headaches: When Your Headache is an Emergency
by Zangani • 17 December 2009 • Pain News
Suzy Koelker had been in pain for two weeks before she got help for her headache. "I'd always had a lot of headaches," the Dubuque, Iowa, woman recalls. "But this one was intense, like a pulsing pain across my temples."
She tried over-the-counter painkillers with no relief. And no wonder: When she finally went to an urgent-care center, a CAT scan revealed swelling in her brain and an MRI showed a brain tumor pressing against the top of her skull.
Days later doctors removed a growth the size of a tennis ball. Fortunately, the tumor—a kind known as meningioma, which develops in the brain's surrounding membrane—was benign, and Koelker, now 49, is pain-free and in good health. "I was lucky I got a doctor in urgent care who said we should check into this further and do a scan," she says.
A severe headache should never be ignored, says Alan Carver, MD, assistant professor of neurology and director of headache and pain management at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York City.
"It can be a warning sign of something more ominous: a brain tumor, stroke, or aneurysm." Patients worry about stirring up drama for nothing, but it's not worth taking chances. "You don't have to apologize," Carver says. "Headaches aren't always just headaches."
Call 911 if …
- You feel like it's the worst headache you've ever had in your life.
- The headache is accompanied by a loss of vision, seeing double, weakness or numbness in your body, difficulty speaking or hearing, or trouble with balance or walking.
- You're afraid you may pass out.

Blood Balance Formula Ingredients List:
- Vitamin C: One of the best vitamins that you can consume. This vitamin can boost your health in so many ways. Some of those ways are related to high blood pressure and diabetes – as vitamin C has been found to be an efficient blood pressure regulator. One of the best natural sources of vitamin C are oranges.
- Biotin: Biotin has been proven to be a potent fighter against diabetes. It has shown great efficiency in getting sugar out of your blood, thus reducing your body's resistance to it as a result. In addition to that, biotin has been shown to treat the physical symptoms of diabetes as well – such as the swelling of limbs and potential immobility caused by diabetes.
- White Mulberry Leaf: This is another diabetes-fighting ingredient. Much like biotin, white mulberry leaf extract has been shown to drastically reduce insulin levels in the blood. One of the best things about this ingredient is that it gets to work fast. As I said earlier, a health supplement like Blood Balance Formula works to speed up the treatment process and ingredients like this are one of the reasons why.
- Magnesium: Magnesium might as well be added to each and every single health supplement because it is a great ingredient that promotes general good health. Not to mention, your body fails to function properly if you do not consume enough magnesium. It has been shown to be useful in the fight against diabetes as well.
- Guggul: This little-known substance is packed with beneficial antioxidants that help protect your cells from free radical damage. This helps reduce your chances of developing illnesses. On top of that, guggul has inflammation-reducing properties as well, which will help reduce any pain that you are suffering from due to diabetes.
- Vanadium: This is a very interesting ingredient that offers a unique benefit in the fight against diabetes. When you consume vanadium, it tricks the body into thinking it is insulin. This means that you will not need to prick yourself with insulin to keep your body from going into diabetic shock. This effect allows your body's resistance to insulin to decline gradually and with it, your symptoms of diabetes will diminish as well.
- Chromium: This superstar ingredient sees its effects amplified when it is mixed with biotin, an earlier mentioned ingredient in Blood Balance Formula. Chromium will give you a boost of energy so that you are able to exercise and get through your daily activities. As you know, exercise is important for maintaining a healthy weight and I seriously hope that you start exercising whether or not you decide to buy this supplement.
- Zinc: Zinc works a lot like magnesium in the sense that it promotes general good health and that not getting enough of it can cause your body to function at a lesser efficiency. Zinc is also a quite effective immune booster, which will help keep your body protected against further illness.
- Juniper Berry: Which has natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds. This inflammation is somehow involved in the development of Type 2 Diabetes, Cardiovascular Disease and heavily associated with Obesity… It is essential to make sure you are taking the highest quality Vitamin E.
- Bitter Melon: This melon contains at least 3 active substances with anti-diabetic properties… And all 3 substances have been PROVEN to lower blood glucose levels.
- Licorice Root Extract: Despite what it sounds like, you won't find it at any candy store… and not only does it help the other ingredients do their thing, it also melts away fat. One study found that people who took a licorice flavonoid oil each day for 8 weeks, experienced reductions in body fat, body weight, body mass index, and LDL cholesterol levels!
- Cinnamon Bark Powder: Cinnamon Bark Powder can control your insulin levels in a way you never thought was possible…The studies have been very promising and I'm really excited to share it with you… Many studies have shown Cinnamon Bark Powder to decrease fasting plasma glucose and increase fat-free mass in overweight or obese pre-diabetic subjects.
- Alpha Lipoic Acid: It can pass easily into the brain and it may help protect the brain and nerve tissue. Researchers are investigating it as a potential treatment for stroke and other brain problems involving free radical damage, such as dementia. This is a powerful antioxidant clinically used for treatment of diabetic neuropathy… And recent studies suggest the possibility of Alpha Lipoic Acid as a potential anti-cancer agent.
- Berberine: Numerous studies have shown, the incredible amount of anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic benefits Berberine contains and is one of the best ingredients for treating Type 2 Diabetes
All of these ingredients indicate that Blood Balance Formula is the real deal and would offer plenty of benefits for anyone that consumes it. Even if you are not diabetic, you could stand to benefit from taking this supplement.
