PIMS admission process raises hackles
The state government's claims about filling NRI and management quota seats in private medical colleges on merit basis notwithstanding, a section of candidates and their parents on Sunday accused the Punjab Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) here of committing serious irregularities to admit non-deserving favourites.chandigarh Updated: Oct 01, 2012 12:11 IST
The state government's claims about filling NRI and management quota seats in private medical colleges on merit basis notwithstanding, a section of candidates and their parents on Sunday accused the Punjab Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) here of committing serious irregularities to admit non-deserving favourites.
The agitated applicants threatened to approach the high court soon to seek justice and a high-level probe into the admission process.
Talking to HT, Liakat Ali of Malerkotla alleged that though his nephew Arfan Mohammad secured 544 marks in the entrance test, the lone seat under the backward class category at the PIMS was allotted to a candidate with 340 marks on Sunday.
"During the September 26 counselling on the PIMS campus, Mohammad was placed in the waiting list and was asked to appear again in the September 30 counselling even as the seat remained vacant. The PIMS authorities assured us that he would get admission on merit. But they denied him the seat, saying he should have submitted a separate application with the college as well. He had already applied in the Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot, and had also attended counselling here four days ago. We will approach the high court to seek justice," Ali said, adding that seats were being "sold".
Interestingly, the PIMS authorities had, on Saturday, issued an advertisement in newspapers inviting applications for filling a Backward Class (BC) and a Schedule Caste (SC) seat, apart from unfilled NRI quota seats, but made it mandatory to secure application forms by noon on the same day itself and fixed 4 pm as the deadline for receiving the forms. Neither the details of unfilled NRI quota seats nor any contact number or admission helpline number was published in the advertisement for "obvious" reasons.
Ayushi from Ferozepur alleged that the PIMS authorities wanted her to deposit Rs 20 lakh in cash on the spot or bank guarantee of the same amount as fee for the full term of the course. "First they refused to consider me for counselling on the pretext that I didn't apply separately with the college, but later in the evening, they agreed to consider me under the NRI quota and demanded an undertaking that I would pay Rs 55 lakh as course fee in case court decides on charging NRI quota fee even from non-NRI students. I was virtually forced out of the admission process," she said.
Sumangla, mother of another applicant, Aditi, alleged that though her daughter was admitted and they deposited Rs 4 lakh as fee with PIMS officials on September 26, she was told to deposit a bank guarantee of Rs 16 lakh immediately. "Although there is a provision in the prospectus for submitting a surety bond as well, the PIMS authorities remained adamant on bank guarantee for the full course fee in advance or cash payment. We were forced to surrender the seat as PIMS officials threatened to forfeit the cash we had already deposited with them. This is sheer injustice with meritorious students," Sumangla said, adding that the PIMS authorities even threatened to mark Aditi as absent in classes if she did not sign an undertaking on surrendering the seat.
Many applicants alleged that the detailed list of vacancies was neither made public nor periodically updated after filling of every seat during the entire counselling process. They alleged that the advertisement was released in newspapers with low circulation.
PIMS director-principal Dr Kulbir Kaur refuted the allegations, claiming that admissions were being conducted purely on merit. "Last year, a student decided not to pursue studies for want of money. That seat unnecessarily got blocked and we suffered a loss on account of the student's inability to pay the fee. So, it was decided to seek bank guarantees for full course fee in advance," she said, maintaining that none of the students was forced to surrender seats.
"We properly advertised the seats and made the updates on vacancies available to the applicants in advance. Dr GS Ahir as a university representative and Dr Vijay Kumar as a state government representative are on the counselling panel apart from me, and the process is fair and transparent," said Dr Kulbir.

SB Nahar Charitable Trust, part of Nahar Group takes a step forward to improve the state of healthcare facilities system in Bhinmal, Rajasthan
In a major step forward to improve the state of healthcare facilities system in Bhinmal, Rajasthan, the SB Nahar Charitable Trust, part of Nahar Group, has worked towards the creation of Nahar Hospital. Equipped with the state-of-the-art multispeciality healthcare facilities, the 82 bed Nahar Hospital has been inaugurated today by State Home Minister Gulabchand Katariya; MP of Rajya Sabha Omji Mathur alongside Mr. Sukhraj B. Nahar, Chairman and Managing Director, Nahar Group; and Nahar Hospital Trustees Smt. Sohini Devi Nahar; Mr Ajay Nahar and Ms. Manju Yagnik, Vice Chairperson, Nahar Group. The ceremony also witnessed the presence of high esteemed bureaucrats and dignitaries such as Sunil Singhi, Member of Minority Commission of India, Raj K Purohit, Cabinet Minister of Maharashtra and Otaram Devasi, State Minister-Gaupalan Department, Rajasthan
The newly opened Nahar Hospital has been aesthetically designed and built by Mr. Ajay Nahar to provide patients with a healing experience rich in natural light, soothing colors and cross ventilation. An accomplished architect, with his ingenuity, skill, quality management and eye for detail, he brings in tremendous dynamism to the Group, taking on the multi-faceted roles of developer, planner and designer.
HOSMAC, a premier consultant in healthcare management, has helped in shaping up the hospital, while AAA consultants have provided commissioning assistance.
The hospital infrastructure has the robust emergency, critical care and OT facilities, and is also equipped with the latest medical equipment and cutting-edge technology. The hospital facilities include OPD (9 consulting rooms+1 treatment room) and IPD, which comprises of Intensive Care Unit-12 beds, Neo-natal Intensive Care Units- 4 beds, In-patient wards- 48 beds. Besides general medicine and surgery, the hospital also offers special medical services- Anaesthesiology, Endoscopy, ENT, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Orthopaedics, Dental, Physiotherapy, Cardiology, Diagnostics, Pathology and Ophthalmology. The hospital compound also has residences for doctors to ensure that patients get the best care facilities at all times. The hospital also houses a 24 hours pharmacy services for inpatient and outpatients.
The newly opened Nahar Hospital is in addition to the existing hospital in Bhinmal known as Matoshree Charitable Hospital, a 20+ bed hospital, which has been operational for the last 30 years.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Mr. Sukhraj B. Nahar, Chairman and Managing Director, Nahar Group, said, "The region of Bhinmal has been lacking in providing even the basic medical facilities for the people. Most of the times medical cases are always in the final stages due to delay in treatment opted from the people of the region. This has been primarily due to the fact that people of the region have to travel long distances to other cities to avail medical treatments. Due to lack of right doctors like Gynaecologists and Obstetricians, several pregnant women don't receive the right guidance and medical treatment, which leads to their newborn children suffering from various deformities, deficiencies or neurological disorders."
He added, "With the opening of the hospital, our mission is to make healthcare affordable for the masses, especially the underprivileged population that needs it the most. The hospital will offer healthcare facilities with the most suitable modern technology and equipment. The hospital will also educate the community about healthcare and prevention of diseases."
The hospital also intends to serve villages beyond Bhinmal with the help of its mobile ambulance which will render immediate medical help to the population within 300 sq. km area.

God wants to heal the wound that has grown inside you. When your inner conflict rages, remember that freedom is a process that happens inside a relationship with Jesus. Love always leaves a significant mark. Don't let your pain cause you to forget what you were created for. Don't let your religious conditioning be a roadblock to encountering God. If despair is devouring too many of your days be reminded that God says your choices & your circumstances are not stronger than his purposes.
I wonder what it would take to get into your heart...

FORT LAUDERDALE – Successful South Florida attorney and marijuana lobbyist Nicole "Nikki" Fried, who announced the formation of a new law firm earlier this month, said she hopes her example is an inspiration for other women active in politics and public advocacy.
"Some of the greatest responses I have received from across the state when my firm was announced were from the women in the political process," Fried said during an email interview with the Florida Record. "If I can inspire any of them and give them the strength to believe in themselves, that is just an added benefit of making this move."
Fried last week announced her decision to leave Colodny Fass and form her own South Florida firm, Igniting Florida LLC. Fried said she came to this decision because it was time.
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained," she said. "I have always lived my life to the fullest, taking on any challenge thrown my way and thriving to be the best possible version of myself. I felt that I had reached a point in my legal/professional career that it was time to make the leap. My strong relationships across the state and my diverse clientele afforded me this opportunity."
Fried said she will continue her government consulting and lobbyist work while working around Florida from Broward County where she lives.
"Igniting Florida is a full-service government consulting firm," Fried said. "My focus will be making a difference in Tallahassee and Broward County. I have had the opportunity to be involved in some major pieces of legislation and policy; that will not change. There is never an issue too large or obstacle to great that I am unwilling to tackle."
Fried said her new direction will not take her away from her clients, who are going with Fried to her new firm, or her marijuana advocacy.
"I can now give my clients my undivided attention and best serve their interests," she said. "As my daily quote for today states, 'It takes nothing to join the crowd. It takes everything to stand alone.' - Hans F. Hansen."
Fried's prominence in government lobbying was solidified earlier this year during the 2016 Legislative Session; Fried was part of the main lobbying team who worked to pass HB 307. The legislation is an expansion of Florida's so-called "Right to Try Act" and recognizes the rights of terminally ill patients to experiment with non-FDA approved remedies, including medicinal cannabis. Gov. Rick Scott signed that legislation into law in March, when it took immediate effect.
The legislation and other government consulting and lobbyist activities have helped Fried become one of the most recognizable change advocates in Florida's growing medical cannabis industry. Fried also is prominent in other causes, including an effort to ensure Florida's foster children receive college and graduate education exemptions.
In 2014, Fried was recognized by The Florida Bar's Legal Needs of Children Committee "for her leadership of the Florida's Children First lobbying team," according to her bio. Fried worked to pass a bill "that provided $4.5 million in appropriations to ensure Florida's disabled dependent children have access to lawyers," her bio says.
It is her marijuana advocacy that garners the most attention and that likely will continue.
"Considering my client, Florida Compassionate Growers, possesses one of the six licenses to grow and dispense medical marijuana, I will have the opportunity to be on the ground as this industry develops in the state of Florida," she said. "Medical marijuana is the largest-growing industry in the world and I look forward to being part of developing the policies that will impact Florida."
Fried chairs the Florida Bar's Young Lawyers' Division Board of Governors' Legislative Affairs Committee and is on the boards of director of Broward Days and the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida. She was named a Rising Star by the Daily Business Review South Florida in 2014 and was also nominated for the same title in Florida Super Lawyers in 2009, 2010 and 2015.
Prior to joining Colodny Fass in 2011, Fried worked with Holland & Knight and was an assistant public defender in Florida's 8th Circuit.
Fried, a graduate of University of Florida Levin College of Law, earned her Master of Arts in political campaigning and Bachelor of Arts in political science from the University of Florida. She also was the school's first female student body president and is the only person in the university's history to head all three university government branches as student body president, senate president and chief justice of the Supreme Court.
Fried is a member of the University of Florida's Hall of Fame, Blue Key Society and has served on the university's board of trustees.

Guests at a Vancouver trade show got an up-close look at a new frontier of the legal marijuana business: weed cuisine.
Diandra Phipps is on stage at the Vancouver Convention Centre demonstrating a vegan poached pear recipe that packs an extra zing. Along side the star anise, sweet Muscato wine and caramel date sauce is small jar of coconut oil infused with White Widow, a high-THC cannabis strain sold by Tilray, one of Canada's licensed medical marijuana producers.
Phipps, a young raven-haired chef from Halifax, apologizes for not being able to share the finished product. Unlike most trade shows, where exhibitors hawk their wares, cannabis products at the second annual Lift Cannabis Expo, are still technically illegal so are not supposed to be bought, sold or given away. There were a few free samples of lotions and tinctures on offer, but no edibles or plain old bud for sale—at least not inside the convention centre doors. But this is Vancouver. Outside, a tent housed a "vaping lounge." On the sidewalk just beyond, attendees partook in old-fashioned joints.

Union of Project Managers of the Republic of Kazakhstan
Almaty, Kazakhstan
Project Management technology in Kazakhstan has actively spread since 2010, and its significance gradually takes the government level. There is forming an awareness of project management's role for further economic and social development in society. Companies apply project management methods and tools, although talk about their widespread dissemination is premature.
On 6th of November in Almaty,
Kazakhstan was held the session of the roundtable "Project management: significance and perspective for innovative development of Kazakhstan".
The initiator and the main organizer of the event was the Union of Project Managers of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Support in its conducting was provided by Kazakh National Technical University after K.I. Satpayev and Entrepreneurship Development Fund "Damu".
The problem of project management market formation in Kazakhstan was discussed in roundtable session; UPM RK invited partners in project communities – representatives of government agencies, business firms, universities, research organizations, non-governmental organizations.
Roundtable participants, describing the situation with the development of project management, noted that Kazakhstan is in "long harness." The country seriously lagged behind international trends in this area. And although there are many enthusiasts in the market who would like to speed up the development of project management market, the gained experience is not used as it is necessary. There is a lack of continuity of development.
However, there was a turning point in the higher echelons of government in evaluation of project management potential in this year. In October, the adopted national standard ST RK ISO 21500-2014 – «Guide to Project Management," included a norm of project management office for the State program of industrial-innovative development for 2015-2019 years. As well was added a new direction – consulting on project management to the government program "Business Road Map-2020".
Significant contribution to the development of project management in Kazakhstan was made by Fund "Damu" within the training program "Business Advisor-2" for acting entrepreneurs. Training-seminars were held in all 16 regions of Kazakhstan from July to November. Project management knowledge was provided to 3000 managers of small and medium businesses.

It was almost goodnight from me... after getting a new knee! Ronnie Corbett came close to death when he collapsed after having a joint replacement
- Comedian Ronnie Corbett, 83, had a hip replacement three years ago
- He suffered complications culminating in a collapse in a restaurant
- Doctors believe it was a result of the medication he received after op
'Just a funny turn': Ronnie shrugs off his collapse
It would make a classic Two Ronnies sketch: Ronnie Corbett appears on the landing outside his bathroom dressed in nothing but a shower-cap decorated with garish pink flowers (a jokey gift from daughters Emma and Sophie), a towel, and his trademark heavy-rimmed glasses.
'Well, I don't think I can go to Waitrose like this!' he exclaims, straight-faced, much to the amusement of Anne, his wife of 50 years.
Later, properly dressed, Ronnie pops out to fetch croissants for breakfast.
Actress and dancer Anne, 80, an enthusiastic amateur artist, gets to work on a sketch of her husband in his previous get-up – the picture is to be auctioned for a hospice charity in Eastbourne – and chuckles inwardly at her husband's antics.
And so life goes on in the Corbett household. But these days, this happy domesticity is particularly precious.
Three years ago Ronnie had his left knee replaced – and then suffered a string of complications that culminated in a dramatic collapse during a family function in a busy restaurant.
There were fears that the 83-year-old comedian might never recover.
Ronnie now describes it as a 'funny turn' – and stresses that, despite the difficulties that followed his operation, he has no regrets about having the surgery.
Having a new knee has allowed him to continue his ritual of a few holes of golf every day, although it has not – he admits – made him a better player.
However, Sophie, 45, Ronnie's younger daughter, described the family's ordeal at the time as 'one of the most terrifying experiences for all of us, ever. I thought we'd lost him, I think we all thought that'.
Ronnie's problems started almost immediately after he came round from the one-hour operation in November 2011.
His recollections are, thankfully, vague. 'I woke up and the room was strange, all back to front,' he says. 'I don't remember what happened or what I did – but apparently I did behave very badly.'
fact, as Anne explains, he was found wandering the corridors of
London's private Princess Grace Hospital in his backless surgical gown.
'Poor Ronnie didn't know where he was,' she recalls. 'The nurses said it was probably a reaction to the anaesthetic and he was very confused. He ripped out all the various tubes attached to him, jumped out of bed, and ran off down the corridor.
'The staff eventually managed to get him back to his room, but they were very worried. I had to come and sleep in the hospital the next night to keep an eye on him, but thankfully it didn't happen again.'
But the problems weren't over. Ronnie was allowed home after five days. He recalls: 'There was a nice lady who came round to help me with exercises. I had to do all sorts of stretching and bending, and there was a stationary bike. I think we still have it somewhere, in the garage.
'It was so the knee didn't get stiff. I also had to take quite a lot of painkillers.'
True comedy: Ronnie with comedy collegue Ronnie Barker for 'The Two Ronnies' reunion in 1999
It was the effects of the medication that, doctors believe, led to his collapse on New Year's Day 2012 in a Chinese restaurant near the family home in Shirley, Croydon.
The family had gathered to celebrate Ronnie's CBE awarded in the New Year's honours in recognition of more than 60 years in showbusiness – when he simply keeled over.
'Ever since the operation, I hadn't felt like eating much, and I hadn't felt myself,' says Ronnie. 'I suppose I didn't bounce back, but you don't. You have to be quite strong to keep doing the exercises – it can be uncomfortable. Before we went out that night, I didn't feel so well. But the kids were all coming and I didn't want to disappoint them.'
The very public collapse was widely reported at the time. Anne adds: 'The paramedics arrived quickly, and we all went with Ron to the hospital. The kids took their Chinese in boxes to eat there. We were all frightened.'
Ronnie was rushed to Mayday Hospital in Croydon, and later transferred to the private Shirley Oaks Hospital where he stayed for five days.
Tests revealed that the collapse was due to low blood pressure – possibly a side effect of the medication combined with the fact he had been eating so little. His GP referred him to The Priory for psychological assessment. It was a single appointment. Ronnie says: 'I think the doctor was worried about my mental state after the funny turn. But in the end, he decided there was nothing wrong with me, apart from the knee.'
Not so stiff: Ronnie before his operation hosting Strictly Come Dancing with Tess Daly in 2009
Anne calls him 'an amazingly strong man, mentally' but admits that his stoicism perhaps hindered his recovery. 'People seem to forget about recuperation now – they give you tablets, and you think you'll be fine. But you need to give yourself time to recover, as I did when I had my hip done a few years before.
Having a major operation like a joint replacement is never easy, but for older people there are certain complications that, while still rare, are more acute – including loss of appetite, infections, and even extreme confusion.
Dr Martin Sandler, clinical director in elderly care at Birmingham Heartlands and consultant at Spire Parkway Hospital, says: 'One in ten older patients develops post-operative delirium, a confused mental state specific to the elderly.
'This is a reaction to trauma or unusual circumstances that can be brought on by an operation or by waking up in hospital. They become frightened and anxious.'
Those with memory loss are particularly prone. The best way to preserve or restore mental wellbeing is for people to return home as soon as possible.
'The sooner you get into your own environment, the better,' says Dr Sandler.
'Anaesthetic, painkillers, antibiotics and being less mobile all make people nauseated and uninterested in food.'
He adds: 'Having a box of chocolates and ice cream handy is perfect as they are high in calories, and upping energy intake is the priority.'
Elderly patients who lose weight can struggle to regain it. To minimise post-operative risks, elderly patients need good support – both at home and in hospital.
'Stay with them as much as possible, make sure medical information is available to carers and keep them well hydrated,' says Dr Sandler.
'Beware of any change in how they seem – often family and friends detect changes faster than doctors as they know them better.'
A change could signal a post-operative infection. Most common is a chest infection – symptoms include increased temperature, cough and quickened breathing.
If a catheter has been inserted, urinary tract infections can occur, with symptoms including burning when passing water and a frequent urge to urinate.
Collapse is very unusual. 'Responding so badly after elective surgery is very rare, and extremely unfortunate,' says Dr Sandler.
'Ron slowly got better. I used to get cross with him, as he'd always be popping up to London to do this or that. That's just him, never one to make more fuss than necessary.'
He credits the spring in his step today to the 'good job' done by his surgeon, Dr Fares Haddad, an expert in hip and knee reconstructions.
'He does all of the Royal Ballet,' says Ronnie.
'And he is also a Professor at the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health. I thought that whoever operates on ballet dancers' limbs would be the best and Mr Haddad is the best. He did a wonderful job.'
Ronnie's knee pain – caused by osteoarthritis, a wearing away of the smooth cartilage that lines the joints – was possibly a legacy of energetic dance routines in his younger years.
'Apart from the time I sat in the chair telling stories during The Two Ronnies, I have always been on my feet,' he says.
Anne continues: 'We used to do a Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers routine which involved us dancing and then me ripping off bits of his clothes, first his sleeves and then the tail of his coat.
'We were doing it one night at the Savoy and I had to throw Ronnie across the stage and he slid on to someone's table. I am sure it was hard on his knees.'
The pain came on gradually over 18 months. 'It started as a niggle. I didn't let people see me limping, though. It's amazing what Dr Footlights can do – when you have to go on, you can walk like Nureyev.
'As soon as you're off stage, though, the pain comes back. We did end up getting a golf buggy, which helped. But stairs were a nightmare – you don't want to look like a 100-year-old grabbing the banisters.'
The comedian explains: 'I'd had a couple of smaller operations earlier to repair ligaments in my knee, and I was hoping that when I went to Mr Haddad three years ago, it would be a similarly minor operation. But I needed a total knee replacement.'
The operation, which is carried out 80,000 times a year in Britain, involves removing and replacing the knee joint and a proportion of the upper and lower leg bones with a metal and plastic prosthesis.
Knee replacements are becoming more common, partly due to rising rates of obesity, which increases the risk of osteoarthritis.
A prior history of knee damage – as Ronnie had – is another factor.
He continues: 'People younger than me have had hip replacements and I just thought it needed to be done. As fond as I was of my old knee for giving me eight decades of loyal service, I don't miss it.
'The other knee is fine, and I have no other ailments. I'm fortunate to be offered work at my age, and lucky I can be selective.'
Last year there was another series of his BBC Radio 4 series When The Dog Dies, and there have been a few voiceovers for adverts, but Ronnie has decided to relax.
'Little things come up, but I won't be doing a Lionel Blair and appearing in Celebrity Big Brother,' he says.

Few civic organizations in Cape Town have not experienced the frustration of having their environmental, heritage or need and desirability objections to a development ignored, overruled and generally dealt with contemptuously by the City.
Often this is in the face of well-reasoned, policy and law-based concerns that have taken many hours of volunteer time to research compile and present, sometimes with the added expense of professional input.
So well-oiled has the process-box-ticking machine become that decisions that are taken on appeal to the City are hardly given the time of day as uninterested committee members leave agenda items unread and professional opinions unconsidered.
In the view of most civic bodies the outcome of decisions to be made by the city are predetermined. Officials, it would appear, have been instructed that an approved proposal is a good proposal irrespective of urban edges, heritage overlays, wetlands, rare and endangered species or service infrastructure limitations.
This is a time-wasting and expensive farce. Residents' associations are left with legal reviews as their only recourse, an insulting irony where the City uses citizens' rates income to suppress the democratic process.
Kommetjie's KRRA is deeply embroiled in such a battle for reason against an administration that has lost credible contact with us all. The autocratic power made available through the highly questionable executive mayor system compounds the problem.
Our objections going back ten years and more, along with costly appeals against an inappropriate, irrational and district-plan-flouting development that will add to the traffic chaos and loss of village character, have been dismissed and the review is underway, all R500 thousand of it.
"This is one for the people of Cape Town who are "gatvol" with the high-handed treatment and development-at-all-costs attitude of the municipality," says chairman Patrick Dowling. Contributions, large and small, will go towards establishing a legal precedent showing that sustainable development is not just a cash cow.
The KRRA is still waiting for the judgement but the issue is so important to both sides that an appeal by one or other party to the appeal court in Bloemfontein is almost inevitable.
Please consider helping us set a legal precedent that will be to the good of us all. Contrabutions should be paid into the KRRA account:

You can almost hear the turbo-charge of a DB5 growling up the mountain roads to the breath-taking views of the Bernese Alps from the chalet.
Chalet Skyfall is tucked away at 1500m in the tranquil Swiss village of La Tzoumaz which has some of the best pistes and off-piste in the region and access to the full 400km of skiing in Verbier's "Quatre Vallees" and many wonderful mountain restaurants. La Tzoumaz's north facing slopes hold the snow extremely well and much less crowded than the major resort of Verbier.
In the summer the area assumes a completely new splendour abounding with mountain activities all within easy reach: mountain biking, trottinettes, riding, paragliding, walking, hiking, golf, tennis, swimming
As its name would suggest, Chalet Skyfall has been furnished to a luxuriously high standard to accomodate up to 12 people.

The nightlife of Verbier is perfectly accessible for the occasional big night out, if you are prepared to use taxis to get back.
EATING - Chalet Skyfall is well equipped for even the most exacting chef. There is a bespoke dining table that can seat 12 adults. There is a good medium-sized supermarket in the village plus several large supermarkets 20 minutes drive from the chalet. There are a handful of decent restaurants in the village including a pizza bar that does take-aways. During the day there are several fabulous restaurants on the mountain.

LIVING - There is cable TV in the sitting room and in all of the bedrooms. A large collection of DVDs, books and games are kept at the chalet. The large leather sofas and chairs seat 12 comfortably and sheepkins line the wood floors. There is a large TV in the bunk room where the younger guests can watch cable TV & DVDs. There is a mezzanine office area with 2 work spaces and a printer. The outdoor terrace provides further seating and lounging options - swathed in reindeer skins!
ADVENTURE - Winter sports of skiing, ski-touring, snowshoeing and easily accessible. Paragliding and Dog sledding is available in Verbier. There are several excellent ski schools in the area. The Tzoumaz Ski School is really superb with children and runs a fun 5 day programme which has proved a roaring success with all the younger guests we have had. Verbier has several excellent schools and instructors/guides will meet you on the Tzoumaz side. The off-piste is Verbier is exceptional and challenging so we really would recommend a ski-guide. The ski area is vast with a wide variety of pistes to suit any ability plus a whole range of restaurants from charming cabins, modern cafeterias and stunning gourmet food in luxury mountain retreats - the common theme being stunning views and the very warm Swiss hospitality.
Summer sports: mountain biking, trottinettes, riding, paragliding, walking, hiking, golf and tennis, In the summer you can drive up to the top of the Tzoumaz mountain and over into Verbier easily or use the cable car system.
Comfort, design and a touch of old fashioned class - everything James Bond and his girls would expect! A modern take on a traditional alpine chalet. The piece de resistance, an absolutely stunning view!

This Boxer Is Doing THIS Trying To Save The Planet One Walk At A Time!Ashley Maisano
Paris, a 9 1/2-year-old Boxer, does her part in keeping the environment clean in her hometown of Bodmin, Cornwall in England. Her owner, Fran Hodges, says that whenever they go for walks, Paris picks up cans, bottles, wood blocks, plastic cups, and any other item she can find, and carries it until they reach home to put it in the correct recycling bin. Hodges says she has done this since she was a puppy, but this past year it's been almost every time she goes for a walk.
"Our town isn't particularly unkempt, but she does seem to sniff out aluminum cans and plastic bottles, among other items, in the hedgerows and gutters as we walk around the town in the evenings," Hodges said. Paris was never trained to do this and was just smart enough to start doing it on her own. She won't walk past a piece of litter without attempting to pick it up and take it with her to a recycling bin. What a smart pup Paris is, helping out the environment! You can follow her recycling journey on her Facebook page!

A woman has had to be cut from her car following a five-vehicle crash in Halifax this morning (Thursday).
The woman is thought to be in her 30s, but at this point it's not thought anybody else has been injured.
She was taken to Huddersfield Royal Infirmary.
The smash happened at around 10.30 this morning, at the junction of Prescott Street and Union Street.
The crash was between a black Mercedes CLS and a Citroen C3, but other vehicles, including a Peugeot Vivacity motorcycle and a Isuzu pick-up truck were also involved.
A West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue spokesperson said that it's thought one car had been coming out of Union Street and another was travelling up Prescott Street.
One car hit the other and the Mercedes went up on the kerb and over the other car, landing on vehicles parked up in a car park.
Firefighters had to remove the roof of the Citroen so the woman could be cut from the vehicle.
Police and firefighters are currently working at the scene as recovery work takes place

In vitro anthelmintic activity of Sansevieria trifasciata leaves extract against Fasciola hepatica
The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vitro anthelmintic activity of Sansevieria trifasciata leaves extract against Fasciola Hepatica. The extract was prepared by soaking one portion of the plant leaves into absolute ethanol and another portion in distilled water for 3 days. The extracted plant material was then squeezed through a piece of porous cloth. The extracts were concentrated in a rotary evaporator at 40°C under reduced pressure and later stored at 4°C until use. The flukes were collected and transferred in flasks containing normal saline maintained at a temperature of 370C to the laboratory in school of health Science, Mount Kenya University for experimental protocol. S. trifasiata leaves tested positive for flavanoids, tannins, alkaloids, phenols, steroids and saponins. The in-vitro assay showed that different doses of the extract resulted to death of the parasites at different mean time.

three of a(n) UN-kind
and then there are days like today when it seems the world has swallowed a pitch-a-fit pill.
my very first customer of the day ordered a mocha frappuccino light - not a problem. but because the beverage was made correctly (meaning there wasn't extra frappuccino guts left in the blender) the customer decided to raise hell because she felt she was being shorted.
"this isn't really full." she slid the frappuccino back to me. "can you top it off?"
seriously, there was really no room to 'top off' the drink, but that isn't really what the lady wanted. what she wanted was for me to remake the drink and give her two for the price of one. so i blended about an inch more of the mocha frappuccino light and 'topped off' her drink.
"why don't you use a dome lid and pour the rest in?" she said in an amazingly patronizing tone of voice when she saw i was going to dump the last bit of frappuccino down the sink.
"oh, did you want to pay the difference for a larger size?" i smiled, knowing full well it rubbed her the wrong way.
"forget it!" she grabbed her drink and straw. "next time learn how to make the drink right on the first try!"
the second customer was a woman who ordered a double tall nonfat cappuccino. i know that's what she ordered because i heard her order it. i also repeated the order to her before i started foaming the nonfat milk. but when i handed her a double tall nonfat cappuccino she huffed and whined about me getting her drink wrong.
"i ordered a LATTE, not a CAPPUCCINO!" she rolled her eyes.
"i'm sorry," i said none too sincerely. "i thought i heard you say cappuccino, and i know when i verified the order i said cappuccino and not latte."
"ask the guy on register!" the lady shot back defensively. "hey! tell her what drink i ordered!" she called out to barista buddy.
"double tall nonfat cappuccino." barista buddy replied without skipping a beat.
"well, the both of you are deaf," she muttered under her breath.
"guess i must be improving because i had no trouble hearing that." i told her directly before remaking her drink.
the third jerk customer of the day was a guy who decided his time was more valuable than the three people in front of him in line.
"gimme a double espresso, water, tall hot cup." he ordered and tossed two bucks at me and began reading the paper.
of course i wasn't going to rush his order through and instead finished the drinks i had on the bar - including the drinks of the three customers he skipped ahead of.
"sorry sir, did you want two shots with water in a tall hot cup?" i asked to clarify.
"double. espresso. water. tall. hot. cup." the guy responded without even making eye contact with me.
so i made him a lukewarm americano, which is what i understood his order to be.
"what is this?" he wrinkled his brow and looked at me like i'd just placed a cup filled with urine in front of him.
"double espresso and water in a tall cup." this time it was my turn to respond flippantly.
"i wanted a DOUBLE ESPRESSO and a cup of water in a hot cup! separate! not together!" the guy raised his voice at me. "and i ordered it, like, ten minutes ago!"
well, since i was already in a mood because of the mocha frappuccino light lady and the cappuccino lady, i was extra bratty when i responded to the jerk customer.
"oh, you wanted a double espresso separated into two cups? so you want two solo shots of espresso? which one gets water?" i smiled at him. "did you want the water hot? or just a tall hot cup? or did you want -"
"just give me two damn shots of espresso!" he interrupted me.
"gladly!" i said, keeping the fake smile on my face.
and yes, i did give him decaf.
partner rant: if you're going to have someone from another store cover your shift, please make sure they've been with bux for longer than two weeks. getting a brand newbie to cover during a morning rush doesn't do anybody any good. so please, make sure that whoever covers your shift at least knows how to ring and do lobbies.

Monday night is a full moon - they must be starting early.
I have a rant for you: I popped into my local bux this morning to grab a pick-me-up before work. I was cut off in the parking lot by a guy who then proceeded to park SIDEWAYS across the only two handicapped spots in the lot. I parked legally and when I got into the store, the man from the illegal car was apparently a barista from another store picking up frappucino base. I understand borrowing product as I work in the industry also, but taking up both handicapped spots just so you can shave 4.7 seconds off your time is asinine. Really. I'm glad he's not one of my regular local baristas.

Why do people think they deserve amazing customer service when they are shitty customers? I wonder how you keep from punching people? Nah, it's actually more fun to fuck with people's heads than it is to punch them.
- Tom said...
Beloved Brat, your cool and collected approach to the blog fodder out there slipping, and I am cheering. A while you ago you would not have responded to the under-the-breath comment, and certainly not with such a coolly cutting edge. And nailing the espresso and water guy on his inability to use the English language to his own advantage? A roar of applause from the gallery.
I work at an information center at a college and we don't like to take other people's mail because we don't like to be responsible if there is a check or whatever in their mail and it gets stolen. I tired it tell a lady at once and she walked away saying "no wonder no one likes you guys" I just can't believe how rude some people can be to your face

Yesterday, I went to the Bux, and an older gentleman was waiting by the cash register. I assumed he'd been waited on. The cashier bux was doing the weirdest thing I've ever seen. She had a fist full of money and was walking up and down the counter, looking on the stuff under the counter, and muttering. She did this the *entire* time I was in the store. Finally one of the regular baristas (or at least folks I see there often) came over and took my order. Then the gentleman spoke up and said he hadn't paid for his drink. At this point, the barista actually working the machines delivered his drink and started making mine. The guy now standing behind the second register let the gentleman have his drink for free and took my money. He then went on to wait on the now considerable line behind me. Meanwhile, the weird barista continued to walk back and forth, muttering. It was just weird.

(Un)fortunately, you'll never have a shortage of great material!
One of my deepest desires, and biggest fears, is that one day everyone wakes up polite, self-aware, and articulate and you (and other service blogs like you) will have to write about other things.
Geez, what jerks.
- Christine said...
Wow. I laughed so hard at your response to all the jerks you dealt with. Sounds like National As*hole Day! We get about three times a week where we work because we have a lot of regulars who think they're all that and a bag of chips (meaning they deserve it all!). Wicked job Brat! You keep me smiling! :)
If only you could have a voice recorder with you. Then you can record what they say and if they try and say something different from what they ordered, you could be like, "Wait what? I thought you said this. *Plays back voice recorder* This is what you just said, right?" And play it loud too, so everyone can hear how much of a jerk he/she is.
- Beth said...
The audacity of assholes.
But I felt ever so proud when I read this: "guess i must be improving because i had no trouble hearing that." You're my hero!
You are AWESOME. I always cower from the jerk customers, but now I'm inspired.
- Christine Fletcher said...
For the way you handled these jerk-o-ramas, and especially for your writing flair and humor -- I bow reverently in your direction! Posts like this are why I'm a brat fan...
bahaha, i always stratgetically pour the frapp so that it looks like there's more. stupid cheapies!i'm a university student i need all the money i can get!
- Sling said...
Man,I'm like totally out of the loop.
The couple of times I've been to Bux I ordered coffee,black...
- Grumpy Housewife said...
See, shit like this is why I left retail.
By now? I totally would have killed someone. And you know, after working retail as long as I did, I had enough homicidal moments.
People are just completely fucking stupid. And I would have said the same things you did, but with more nasty language thrown in, lol!
- Andrew said...
Dealing with such jerks sucks, but it often can be funny in hindsight. I think the stories are almost worth the initial hassle. ^_^;;
- Citymouse said...
why are people such jerks?
Ok, I don't get it. You had to deal with a bunch of idiots in your store. And yet, when you post it on your blog, only intelligent people leave comments. Intelligent people, UNITE!!! Grab the next stupid person you find and detain them until we can determine a suitable place to send them all. If they cuss at you or otherwise attempt to traumatize you, let them have it with your scathing wit. Throw coffee on them (not too hot, or it will burn them), hose them down (I found some great quick connectors at walmart for an astonishingly low price), and, ok, that's it for me. The meeting of intelligent, courteous, and friendly service industry patrons will reconvene next week. Don't forget to bring all of your stupid detainees in casae we have figured out where to put them.

gamestore girl - i think they started when they were born!
isabelle - wow, the nerve on that guy. if he was just a customer i'd think he was a jerk, but being a barista he REALLY should have known better. i'm glad for your sake he doesn't work in that store.
ray - it's funny, i didn't even realize it was april 1st. too bad i don't think the customers were playing jokes.
monica - yeah, sometimes making their day as miserable as they made mine is better than physical violence :)
tom - haha, yeah. i'm losing my patience again, aren't i?
becca - that's what i call the "shit and run".
georg - that is really freaky. almost like a crazy person wandered into their store and put an apron on!
lori - i don't think there's a chance that will ever happen, haha!
melissa - i concur.
anonymous - i know, but even then they might accuse us of messing with the tape, or claiming we were playing back someone else's order!
beth - i'm just lucky my manager wasn't around to hear my response!
tina - i usually am not so snarky. i think i just had raw nerves.
christine fletcher - thanks! coming from you that's a huge compliment!
rachel cantebury - usually that works, right? i hate it when they hit the cup on the counter several times so the fappuccino all gets packed to the bottom of the cup, and then they say we shorted them.
sling - i don't think we serve that anymore ;)
grumpy housewife - i always think to the day i win the lotto and can go off on all the jerk customers in a more "colorful" manner.
andrew - i'm glad they amuse you!
citymouse - i think it must be a disease.
lisa - haha, love it!
- mellowlee said...
Yeesh! What a bunch of jerks! I'm glad I read the good customers stories above first :O)

New worm targets OS X chat users
A malicious program that could be the first Trojan in the wild to target Apple Computer's Mac OS X operating system has been discovered, security experts confirmed Thursday.
Apple and outside analysts said the program, referred to as Leap-A, is not a "virus" per se. Rather, it "requires a user to download the application and execute the resulting file," Apple said in a statement to CNET News.com. The company provided no further comment on the nature of the program. New worm targets OS X chat users | CNET News.com

WiFi driver used to hack laptop
A way of seizing control of a laptop by exploiting flawed code in the system's wireless device driver has been discovered by security researchers.
The hack will be demonstrated at the upcoming Black Hat USA 2006 conference during a presentation by David Maynor, a research engineer with Internet Security Systems and Jon Ellch, a student at the US Naval postgraduate school in California.
Device driver hacking is technically challenging, but the field has become more appealing in recent years, thanks in part to new software tools that make it easier for less technically savvy hackers, known as script kiddies, to attack wireless cards, Maynor said in an interview.

Gourmet Madrid: food and drinks
In this city, gastronomy is culture, leisure and business. There is a vast range of culinary variety on offer: Madrid accepts all types of influences from all types of cooking. It does have its own dishes which, although they did not originate in this area, have become "madrileño" over time. You can find everything, from traditional homemade dishes to the most innovative and creative cuisine. The traveler, who visits their local bars, will see that for the locals of Madrid, breakfast consists of white coffee and toast and butter or oil. However, more importantly, the traveler will see that the "madrileño" has a passion for the slender, curly fingers called "churros" or the larger "porras".
Going out for tapas is one of the most enjoyable traditions of our city. In this leaflet we tell you everything you need to know to be able to tapearlike the locals: what to order (calamari, cod, tripe…), the best places to go, and the unmissable culinary events held in the city.
Madrid, food capital of Spain, is home to a vast array of culinary options ranging from traditional national dishes to the most sophisticated and avant-garde creations. The whole of Spain is well represented in its restaurants, where specialties from other cities and regions are lovingly prepared, sending your taste buds into overdrive and allowing you to travel across the entire country without getting up from your seat.
- Century old taverns & restaurants
- Traditional restaurants
By all means fill your shopping basket, but leave time to meet up with friends for morning coffee, enjoy some oysters with champagne, catch an art exhibition or buy a bunch of flowers to brighten up your home. This is the concept behind two markets that have revamped both their appearance and their philosophy. These markets are places lined with little bars where you can try the best and most varied examples of national and international gourmet food, get yourself a take-away or eat in and soak up the fantastic atmosphere.
Restaurant with a Michelin´s Star
For lovers of gastronomy and restaurant owners in many European countries, theMichelin Guide is a Bible, a document which is the hallmark of gastronomic perfection, and which can transform the finest chefs into truly galactic artists.
Vegetarían Restaurants
Madrid boasts plenty of options for those who choose not to eat meat, milk or eggs, or who simply enjoy cuisine based on vegetarian ingredients. Recently, more and more restaurants that promote vegetarian cuisine have opened up in the city offering elaborately prepared recipes which yield innovative and very tasty dishes combining basic ingredients such as fresh fruits, vegetables, seitan or tofu.

Oil bourse next week
October 22, 2009
TEHRAN – Iran international oil bourse will come on stream on October 26 at Kish Island, the managing director of Iran Mercantile Exchange said here on Wednesday.The Mehr News Agency quoted Ali Akbar Hashemian as saying that, "Iran Mercantile Exchange's international exchange hall of crude, oil products and petrochemical goods will be officially inaugurated next week."
The domestic Iranian Oil Bourse was inaugurated on February 17, 2008 in Kish Island.
Iran, having the world's second largest gas reserves and third largest oil reserves, is trying to play a more active role in oil and petrochemical transactions in international markets.
The Islamic Republic also wants to encourage local investors to participate in the oil market as it tries to reduce the state's role in the country's energy industry
