Okay,so Shourie doesnt face any criticisms?He was fired from IE and was called back,that doesnt get a mention?He was vehemently opposed to the Reliance Industries & Dhirubhai,and now,he gave a Dhirubhai memorial lecture,praising his works?Why no mention of his "anti-Muslim" rhetorics and hate theories?Why no mention of the Centaur Hotel deal,the Balco controversy and a hell lot of others that occured when he was the disinvestment minister?Counts for POV or what?Thanks--Sahodaran 05:16, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
- If you think important material has been left out of this article, you should certainly add it. Just make sure you have good references for anything contentious - which the stuff you mention sounds like it might be. -- Danny Yee 11:24, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
Labor Strike in Indian Express[edit]
"", where a labour organizer with ties to Antulay encouraged workers to strike for a minimum wage double than what was paid at any other newspaper in India""
- the above line is Pov and un-substantiatd. it has been deleted--Yeditor 04:00, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
"In 1982, the paper's owner Ramnath Goenka fired Shourie as a result of continued government pressure."
The above line was POV. It has been modified--Yeditor 04:03, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Shouries controversial writings[edit]
In his book Worshipping False Gods, Shourie criticized B.R. Ambedkar, the leader of Dalits for alleged complicity with the British and lust for power and wealth. Another well known writer 'Ramchandra Guha' dismissed Arun Shourie as a "pamphleteer posing as an historian". Shouries unwarranted tirade against Dr B R Ambedkar's works and the opressed classes led to the blackening of his face in public by Dalits. He has also been described as a paid bolg of the BJP/Sangh Parivar as all his works have been colored in communalism.
- I am not aware why Palwan has deleted the above. The criticism is substantiated. I am reinstating it with some change of language--Yeditor 04:07, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Because it is meant to smear Shourieji and its a pile of anti-Hindu, anti-BJP garbage. That's why the quote was deleted. Bakaman Bakatalk 18:32, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Why is there only a singular reference to his work on Ambedkar....He has written almost two dozen other titles on diverse topics over a span of 30 years and more....Wiki does not decide whether his work is historically valid or not; but the basic themes of his work should be highlighted in the article.
Shourie could not be indicted by any agency in the Centaur hotel case. It is well known that even the congress favours disinvestment but is hampered by the communists and casteist parties like LJP who compel the government to run sick PSUs and spend billions of rupees of the public exchequer in their failed revival in order to save a few hundred government jobs held by the most incompetent and corrupt babus —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 17:50, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Is anyone else having an impossible time following the aftermath of the Israeli election? I know of no other country where the real campaigning begins after the race is over.
Benjamin Netanyahu appealed to his moderate rivals Friday to join him after the hard-liner was formally tapped to put together Israel's next ruling coalition — an alliance that would dilute the power of nationalists bent on derailing Mideast peace talks.
Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, in a seeming about-face, indicated she might be willing to come on board a Netanyahu government.
But Livni, a centrist, would certainly exact a high price: sharing the prime minister's job she so fervently sought with a reluctant Netanyahu. Should he balk, his alternative would be an unstable coalition of right-wingers sure to collide with the Obama administration and its ambitious plans for ending 60 years of conflict between Israel and the Palestinians.
Netanyahu urged Livni of the governing Kadima Party and Defense Minister Ehud Barak of the Labor Party to join his government.
"I call on the members of all the factions ... to set politics aside and put the good of the nation at the center," Netanyahu said during a low-key ceremony at the president's residence in Jerusalem.
Friday's decision by Israel's ceremonial president, Shimon Peres, to tap Netanyahu ended days of speculation and gave Netanyahu six weeks to put together a ruling coalition.

After reading many of the previous reviews, I entered my room with great caution, inspecting everything to make sure there wasn't a problem that would make me want to change rooms. Everything looked ok and I had a very comfortable 3-day stay.
The walls are thin and I could hear a normal conversation in the next room at one point, but other than that I didn't hear anything. The wifi worked great. The bed was very comfortable.
The free breakfast buffet had everything you would expect (eggs and potatoes included but didn't see meat, which you can order as a side off the menu). The added advantage with the breakfast over a Hampton or other places is you are eating in a real restaurant with tablecloths and very nice servers who will bring your coffee and juice to your table, or take your order for anything additional that you want off the regular menu. With big glass walls around the restaurant area, I enjoyed looking at the colorful fall leaves. The buffet does end at 9, not 10 like most places, so that is something to remember. That is a breakfast-only cafe; I didn't eat in the other restaurant/bar.
Yes, it's old, and must be on a list somewhere for a future makeover - which is why I can only give it a 4, not a 5 - but it still felt like a Sheraton to me and at a good priceline rate, I thought it was a good value. I would stay there again.

Hi all,
Forgive me if my questions are too silly. I am a Java beginner (very much of a beginner), and I received the following assignment:
"Many public schools in California are experiencing a shortage of funds for special student activities. Some schools started Jog-A-Thons as a fundraiser. Each student gathers sponsors for a particular amount per lap jogged. Write a program that tracks this activity.
The program repeats until all sponsors are entered. It accumulates the grand total funds owed the school. For each sponsor, the program prompts for the name of the student. It then prompts for the sponsors' name, and amount pledged for each lap. The program asks if the sponsor is a company (Y/N). Then the program prompts for the amount of laps the student actually jogged. The program calculates the amount owed to the school (pledge times laps). If the sponsor is not a company, the maximum amount owed the school is set to $100.00, (There is no maximum if the sponsor is a company). Finally, display on the screen the students name and sponsor name changed to all uppercase (whether or not it was entered in upper case), the pledge amount, the number of laps, and the amount calculated. Prompt if there is another sponsor (Y/N). After all sponsors are entered successfully, display the grand total funds owed the school. All money must be formatted appropriately."
So, I am stuck at figuring out how to write at the Y/N cases.
here is what I've got so far:
I need to keep repeating this program until all sponsors are entered. I am confused with all the repetitions, since I already used them for other reason, please help.Code:/* Andrew B Test 03/01/2012 This program uses System.out.println for standard output */ import java.util.Scanner; // Import the Scanner Class Library import java.text.*; public class Test { public static void main(String args[]) { // variable declaration int amountSchool, laps, count = 0; String s, , more_sp, st_name, spon_name, Uname_st, Uname_spon; float dolla, laps, total = 0; Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); //Create Scanner object "input" DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("###,##0.##"); // Print Title System.out.print( "\t\t\tMy Jog-A-Thon Fundraising Activity\n\n" ); do { // Prompt for student name System.out.println("\tEnter student's name: "); st_name = input.nextLine(); // Student name to upper case Uname_st = st_name.toUpperCase; System.out.print("\nEnter sponsor's name: "); spon_name = input.nextLine(); // Sponsor name to upper case Uname_spon = spon_name.toUpperCase; // Ask For Pledge Amount System.out.print( "\n\n\n\t\t\tEnter U.S. dollar amount pledged for each lap: \n\t\t\t" ); dolla = input.nextFloat(); // Ask If Sponsor is a Company System.out.print( "\n\n\n\t\t\tIs the sponsor a company (Y/N)?\n\t\t\t" ); System.out.print( "\n\n\n\t\t\tPlease type Y for 'yes' and N for 'no'\n\t\t\t" ); s = input.nextLine(); choice = s.charAt(0); if (s == 'y' || s == 'Y') { System.out.print( "\n\n\n\t\t\tEnter the number of laps student has jogged:\n\t\t\t" ); laps = input.nextFloat(); amountSchool = laps* dolla; System.out.println( "\n\t\t\tAmount owed to school is $" + df.format(amountSchool)); } else if (s == 'n' || s == 'N') { System.out.print( "\n\n\n\t\t\tEnter the number of laps student has jogged:\n\t\t\t" ); laps = input.nextFloat(); amountSchool = laps* dolla; if (amountSchool > 100) { System.out.println( "\n\t\t\tAmount owed to school is $100"); } else { System.out.println( "\n\t\t\tAmount owed to school is $" + df.format(amountSchool)); } } else { System.out.println( "\n\t\t\tInvalid character"); count++; total += amountSchool; } } System.out.print("\nStudent's name: " + st_name); System.out.print("\nSponsor's name: " + spon_name); System.out.print( "\nAmount pledged for each lap: \n\t\t\t" + de.format(dolla)); System.out.println("\nTotal laps = " + count); System.out.println("\nTotal amount owed to school= $" + df.format(total)); System.out.print( "\n\n\n\t\t\tIs tthere another sponsor (Y/N)?\n\t\t\t" ); more_spon = input.nextLine(); } while (more_spon == 'y' || more_spon == 'Y'); System.out.println("\nTotal amount owed to school=$" + df.format(total)); } }
Please help, I appreciate any input!

P.S. this question is very OBVIOUSLY only for people who do Santa with their kids. If you don't, oh well good for you, I don't care or need to hear about it!!!!!
Santa presents
Santa usually brings the bulk of the gifts, but not this year. I decided I needed to reign it in, and control the amount of stuff DS was getting. It's very easy to go overboard when you only have one child. This year Santa will bring DS his Lite Brix (light up blocks that work with legos), and a new crossbow. The few other things I've picked up, Paper Jamz on clearance, Nerf gun, Lego book, and a few other things I've hidden and forgotten, will be from us. All told I will have spent about 200 on DS for Christmas, which is about half of what we normally do.
My parents have bought DS a Kindle Fire, his other grandparents will get him a case and gift cards to Amazon. As far as his Aunts, who knows!

Each child gets the one gift they ask Santa for, within reason and usually heavily persuaded of course, plus stocking stuffers like books, PJs, and treats from Santa. The rest of the gifts come from each member of the family.
z Big Sister -- May 2009 z
z Little Sister -- August 2012 z
The stockings are from Santa (obviously) and then the big gifts I don't want to wrap.
DD will be getting a kitchen this year, so that and the accessories will be from Santa (she won't be getting much from us because the kitchen is a BIG gift!!)
I don't know what DS' big gift will be yet. We're contemplating getting him a Leap Pad. If we do, that'll be from Santa. If not, it'll be whatever other big gift we come up with.
We're also getting them a cardboard playhouse (the kind you can color). It'll be to both of them from Santa.
Mama to Aaron Michael (07/22/08) and Emily Lynn (12/15/10)
This is screwing us over this year as the gift from us is DisneyWorld. Ughh. I had to hit up the Target clearance this summer and buy a bunch of crap.

Mommy to Emma Lee, 1/13/05 & Jude Jaxon, 3/30/12
I forgot-this year may be different. We may be spending the night at my parents' house Christmas Eve (we do Christmas Eve with them every year-have never spent the night). If we do, then we will be doing some Santa gifts there, as well as some of the gifts from dh and I, but then we will also be doing all of that when we come home bc we live with mil and I know she would like to see the kids open up more than just the gifts from her. Plus, I don't really want them opening up and playing with their castles and accessories at my parents' house just to have to pack them back up.
I have found that it is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love.
give roots AND wings
I don't really specify. My mom never really did, and I didn't question it too much. if I ask she'd just say "who do you think got it for you?" and I'd say either her or santa and she'd say "ok!" and that'd be the end of the conversation.
my kids probably think everything is from santa because I don't put anything under the tree until after theyve gone to bed on CE. But that has more to do with me loathing wrapping than wanting them to think it's from santa.

Our Stockings are also from Santa. They are laid out on the floor. When I was growing up we were allowed to open out stockings and play with Santa's gift while everyone else woke up.
TTC Our Rainbow
Please ignore any typos, I am attempting to type on my phone, not just an idiot!
We do things a little different here since we're a blended family. We decided when we first got together that Christmas Eve would be our big celebration with our kids. We do a special dinner, and three gifts each from us on Christmas Eve while we have all of the kids together. Then we take the older kids to our exes for their time with them, and the next morning the three youngest each get a stocking and one large gift from Santa.
In our family growing up, we did the big gift being from Santa, and the rest were from mom and dad. DS is too young to know the difference so he thinks for now that Santa brings everything.
Jeanette + 1 husband + 1 toddler + 1 dog + 2 cats = our family!

Two local teens are getting away from the winter cold and bringing their golf clubs to compete in The Golf to Paradise – First Tee Champions Challenge in Naples, Florida.
Elias Aouad, a senior at East Grand Rapids High School and Andrew DeYoung, a junior at Kenowa Hills High School are being sent by the local non-profit The First Tee of West Michigan. The First Tee teaches students values and life skills through the game of golf and has had Aouad and DeYoung as participants since 2011.
In conjunction with the ACE Group Classic, a Champions Tour event, six affiliates of The First Tee from across the country have been invited to participate. The Challenge will be hosted at The TwinEagles Club in Naples, Florida on February 9 and 10.
ROCKFORD, Mich.– For the first time, current and retired Rockford area art teachers are being recognized in a special show, "Teaching Is An Art" hosted by Arts Rockford in their new facility at 52 Courtland in downtown Rockford.
Retired Rockford East Middle School art teacher Patti Mollema came up with the concept and communicated with art teachers throughout the school system to encourage participation and involvement with the exhibit, which will run through Feb. 16.
"In addition to being excellent teachers, these individuals are also artists themselves and we're delighted to give them an opportunity to show and sell their work," said Mollema.
Eight teachers from the Rockford school system have work in the show, along with another four retired art teachers from the Rockford area. Each teacher and artist was given a space to fill in the gallery for this varied show with something for everyone.
During the winter break from school, many students will pack away their books and turn their attention away from learning.
To help ensure your students are still learning, statewide virtual learning school, Michigan Connections Academy, is sharing activities you can do as a family to keep your young students busy and their brains active over the break.
1. Practice math while baking holiday cookies. Students struggle with fractions and always want to know when they will "use math in real life." The perfect time to practice fractions is while you are baking cookies. Two-thirds of a cup plus 1/3 of a cup equals one whole cup, which your child will see as you work on making those cookies, helping develop a real life connection to what they are learning in school.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.— The baking battle is over, and the winner is West Michigan charities.
Wednesday, sixth grade students from Blandford School, Zoo School and CA Frost Environmental Science Academy competed in their own Cupcake War to raise money for local charities. The students worked in teams of four to create a cupcake that would take top ratings in theme, appearance, design and taste. They also had to incorporate a special ingredient.
The Best of Show award went to Blandford School. Zoo School sold the highest percentage of their cupcakes, and CA Frost Environmental Science Academy sold the most cupcakes. Altogether, the schools raised $656 selling their cupcakes, which will go to the schools' charity of their choice.
Nexus Academy of Grand Rapids, is hosting a free college financial aid seminar on Tuesday, November 18 at 6:00 p.m. featuring a representative from Grand Rapids Community College (GRCC). The event, which is open to the public, will help educate parents and students on financial aid, the FAFSA application, and scholarship options for any student considering college.
Families interested in learning more about the college application and financial aid process should RSVP for the event on the Nexus Academy of Grand Rapid's event page.
The event will be held at the Nexus Academy campus in Grand Rapids, located inside the Clark Place building at 801 Broadway Ave. NW, Suite 225.
Thanks to Schools of Choice programs in Michigan, students are afforded the opportunity to choose a school environment that best meets their learning needs. These programs also offer our state's educators opportunities to teach in environments that are best suited for them. Just as some teachers flourish in a traditional school, there are those who prefer teaching at a virtual public school, such as Michigan Connections Academy, the school where I teach.
I work with an incredible team of teachers – they are state-certified, specially trained in online learning, recognized as Highly Qualified under the guidelines of the No Child Left Behind Act—and live in Michigan. In fact, even though we teach in a virtual school, more than 60 teachers travel to the school's office in Lansing every day to lead online instruction for more than 1,700 students across Michigan in grades kindergarten through 12.
Nexus Academy of Grand Rapids, a "blended" tuition-free public high school for students in grades 9-12, has been awarded accreditation from the national accreditation commission, AdvancED. The accreditation report praised Nexus Academy of Grand Rapids for its ability to: effectively use technology to align student schedules based on needs; provide students with immediate feedback on assignments; and to operate the school in an efficient manner for student success.
"Receiving the AdvancED accreditation demonstrates our commitment to excellence and the high quality of our school," said Dan McMinn, Nexus Academy of Grand Rapids principal.

In spite of the title, the emphasis is definitely on balls here. Balls being stretched, pounded, roped and cock-ringed for maximum extension (we're talking 22 cock rings extending the balls from the shaft). The actors are mostly of the aging-longshoremen type. The overall effect is something of a freak show.

The new generation of imaging spectrometers onboard planetary missions usually produce hundreds to thousands of images a year, each made up of a thousand to a million spectra with typically several hundred wavelengths. Such huge datasets must be analyzed by efficient yet accurate algorithms. A supervised automatic classification method (hereafter called "wavanglet") is proposed to identify spectral features and classify images in spectrally homogeneous units. It uses four steps: (1) selection of a library composed of reference spectra; (2) application of a Daubechies wavelet transform to referenced spectra and determination of the wavelet subspace that best separates all referenced spectra; and (3) in this selected subspace, determination of the best threshold on the spectral angle to produce detection masks. This application is focused on the Martian polar regions that present three main types of terrains: H2O ice, CO2 ice, and dust. The wavanglet method is implemented to detect these major compounds on near-infrared hyperspectral images acquired by the OMEGA instrument onboard the Mars Express spacecraft. With an overall accuracy of 89%, wavanglet outperforms two generic methods: band ratio (57% accuracy) and spectral feature fitting (83% accuracy). The quantitative detection limits of wavanglet are also evaluated in terms of abundance for H2O and CO2 ices in order to improve the interpretation of the masks

This is absolutely my favorite salad of all time. I could eat the whole bowl by myself.
This quick and easy salad was so delicious. The dressing ingredients blended nicely together and added so much flavor to the salad. I ended up letting the artichokes and zucchini marinate in the dressing for about 4 hours and it was perfect for our tastes. My family loved this and gave it 2-thumbs up. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper! *Made for PAC Spring '08*

Commodores drop Colonels
Published: Saturday, November 10, 2012 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, November 10, 2012 at 11:52 p.m.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Down by just six at halftime, the Nicholls State men's basketball team had Vanderbilt on the ropes until the second half when the Commodores hit eight 3-pointers to pull away in a 80-65 win in the season opener for both teams.
With the loss the Colonels fall to 0-1 on the season while Vanderbilt improves to 1-0.
Nicholls was led by redshirt senior Fred Hunter, who after sitting out all of last year to rehab scored 21 points on 9-of-14 shooting and grabbed ten rebounds to earn a double-double. Nicholls had three players score in double figures as Sam McBeath scored 15 points and T.J. Carpenter scored 11 in his debut in a Colonel uniform.
Vanderbilt was led by its guard play, as Kendren Johnson led all players with 25 points. Kyle Fuller and Kevin Bright each chipped in 15 to combine for 55 of Vanderbilt's 80 points.

This is driving me nuts! I had it working but then I changed something and I can't get it to work anymore - I must be missing something really stupid.
I've been searching here for about an hour and I can't finy any concrete information on this. Here's my problem:
I'm trying to have two loops on the index page. The first loop will call the 10 recent posts from "category1" and the second loop will call the 10 recent posts from "category2".
You can see my current code here: http://pastebin.com/396261
I've seen a couple so-called solutions to this problem but most involve the first loop only pulling posts "normally" and the second loop pulling the posts as per that link above. This way will not work for me - I need each loop to pull from a seperate category.
Anyone have any insight on this?

Cupertino, CA
NBC has unveiled the first images and trailer for Dracula, a retelling of the Bram Stoker classic created by Cole Haddon.
In this new version, which was ordered by the network last week, Jonathan Rhys Meyers (The Tudors) stars as the legendary vampire, living a double life in London as an American entrepreneur who desires to introduce modern science to Victorian society. But secretly the Count is plotting revenge on the people who ruined his life centuries earlier — that is, until he falls hopelessly in love Mina Murray (Arrow's Jessica De Gouw), who appears to be the reincarnation of his dead wife.
The 10-episode limited series, which will air Fridays at 10 p.m. this fall, also stars Thomas Kretschmann (King Kong, The River) as Van Helsing and Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Mr. Selfridge) as Harker, Katie McGrath (Merlin) as Lucy Westenra and Nonso Anozie (Game of Thrones) as Renfeld.
I wish they would stop dragging Stoker's name into this. Just because they use the same characters doesn't mean it's in any way faithful to the book. It sounds like it should really be called, "NBC's series based on DePalma's film that was loosely based on Bram Stoker's Dracula."
It is certainly nice to see that it doesn't appear to be updated to modern times…
Francis Ford Coppola made Dracula

CRAIG, CO – The Bureau of Land Management's Little Snake Field Office announced today that it will be closing Vermillion Basin to future oil and gas leasing. The decision comes as part of the ongoing revision of the BLM's Resource Management Plan for the Little Snake Resource Area in Northwest Colorado.
WASHINGTON, D.C.– The Wilderness Society is pressing for Congressional support of Senator Dianne Feinstein's California Desert Protection Act of 2010 which will be considered at a Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee hearing.
WASHINGTON, DC — New oil and gas leasing reforms announced today by the Department of the Interior represent a significant improvement for how the Bureau of Land Management will conduct its onshore oil and gas leasing program for public lands.
DENVER — Increased public participation opportunities for the proposed SunZia Southwest Transmission Project were announced by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) today, an encouraging sign to conservationists and renewable energy policy experts.
SALT LAKE CITY – A coalition of historic preservation and conservation groups announced yesterday that they settled a lawsuit with the Bureau of Land Management filed in the summer of 2008 challenging the BLM's approval of 30 natural gas wells in the Nine Mile Canyon region of Utah.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — This afternoon Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced the first of eight regional science centers in the United States called for in his September 14, 2009 Secretarial Order on Climate Change. The following statement can be attributed to David Moulton, Director of Climate Policy & Conservation Funding for The Wilderness Society:
PHOENIX - Capitalizing on the opportunity to build clean, renewable energy while revitalizing damaged lands, the Arizona State Office of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has begun the second phase of an initiative it launched last summer. The Restoration Design Energy Project (Restoration Design), funded with stimulus money under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, aims to achieve the ultimate in guided renewable energy development – repowering already disturbed lands, also called brownfields.
LOS ANGELES — Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) introduced legislation today to preserve the spectacular heritage of the California desert by creating two new National Monuments and expanding Joshua Tree and Death Valley National Parks and the Mojave National Preserve. The bill would establish new wilderness areas in Death Valley National Park and on lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the US Forest Service. Finally, the legislation would also establish a permitting process for all renewable energy projects on BLM land.
BOISE - One of the last remaining Bureau of Land Management (BLM) sheep grazing allotments in the Salmon River corridor was halted yesterday when U.S. District Court Judge Lynn Winmill granted a motion to restrict grazing that puts Bighorn Sheep at risk. The Wilderness Society and our legal partners at The Western Watershed Project and the Hell's Canyon Preservation Council filed the motion in hopes of ending domestic sheep grazing on Partridge Creek Allotment where one of the highest threat to bighorn sheep exists.
WASHINGTON - As the Department of Interior and Bureau of Land Management evaluate the impacts that oil and gas development would have on red rock wilderness lands in Utah, conservation groups are calling for ongoing protection of these treasured areas. Following the Bush Administration's attempted last-minute auction of 77 parcels of lands last year, the courts ruled that BLM did not follow proper procedures.

Dear Mr. Westwood,
I am writing in response to the post advertised in The Telegraph (ref. QS4BRB) for the position of Administrative Assistant within your firm.
I have 3 years experience as an administrative assistant within a small local business in my home town of Selby. In my previous position I was the assistant to our Office Manager and was therefore occupied with a wide variety of tasks from accounting and data input to filing and word-processing. Assisting the Office manager meant I had to be flexible with my work load, punctual and organised to deal with each change that may occur throughout the day.
In June 2008 I passed my OCR Stage 3 in Business word processing and I have experience with different software, such as SAGE, ACCESS and EXCEL.
I believe I can bring an enthusiastic well organised and friendly assistant to your team.
Please find enclosed with this letter my updated Curriculum Vitae.
Yours Sincerely,
Samuel Holland

The "Story" ex of Yuzu is also her song. See video : FaOI version & 2013 GPF EX version.
By the way, Brian Orser & David Wilson are the chief choreophers of the show.
I remember BO said in a interview about his choreographying this show with DW that he really surprised his students, Yuzu and Javi who were also in the show, by showing them something different about himself, since he rarely do shows or choreography before.
Does it mean Yuzu is going to meet the Emperor AGAIN?? Could anybody translate this piece?
"Mako customers and garden party Hanyu players (imperial trivia) for the first time: Digital Asahi Shimbun (Asahi Shimbun Digital) - goo News
Nearby, are invited to a tea ceremony which is held in the palace, Hanyu players are scheduled round-table with royalty how. I will continue full report"
....so much for that
In other news, seem like Yuzu was at his elementary school today (07/05)
The alumni association of Tohoko High School sponsored to plant a Yoshino cherry tree in the campus, in order to celebrate and memorize Yuzus victory in Olympics gold medal.
When Shizuka Arakawa won the gold medal in Turin Olympics 2006, they also planted a cherry tree named after her for celebration. Eight years later, Tohoko has two Olympics cherry trees in campus. It should be a world record. (Yuzu studied the same high school as Arakawa.)

Comments about 'Cox family spokeswoman blasts Josh Powell for recent statements'

This man's scenario is just as plausible and believable as any other scenario.
So far nothing is known or proven other than the woman has disappeared on her
own recognizance or kidnapping, neither of which has been explored.
The police idea of investigating is a narrow minded approach. They have done nothing to look for the lady and everything to try and prove a crime that may not exist. Law enforcement is very creative and prejudiced in investigations and how fixated they get on a single scenario. What about all scenario's? Women and men have disappeared all the time for many years by their own hand. Family's friend's, coworkers, and others never really know someone the way they think.
Elizabeth Smart is another case where law enforcement had it in their minds it was a family affair of murder when she disappeared and where in the process of creating evidence to punish the mother and/or father for her disappearance. The parents were the only people of interest. Bet you don't remember that either.

Come on, Josh! You gotta do better then this. All these weeks/months of staying mum and this is what you say? If you're so willing to talk to a newspaper reporter in the comfort of mommy & daddy's home, why don't you "chat" with some law enforcement officials while connected to a lie detecter? I know they'd love to talk with you. Those usually come in handy in helping "criminal" investigations. If you're so innocent, what do you have to lose, pal?

What ever happened about the spot on the rug that had a fan on it drying when the cops busted in the house ? Did they ever figure out what it was? I can understand why people don't want to talk to the cops, but can't he take his lawyer with him so they don't bully him and just answer some simple basic questions? I guess it really doesn't matter...there is no bringing her back if she's dead. Some things God just has to take care of. And He will. May God bless all the innocent parties.

People think they really know somebody. Her friends and family say "she would never do that." Nobody really knows anybody. Who knows what her state of mind was. And yes Josh still looks as dirty as ever in this case. What troubles me is his statement about "grinding hamburger". I am still leaning toward the husband as the guilty party. When I was growing up the police meant something and would help solve most situations. Not the case today.

I believe Josh Powell was treated UNFAIRLY from the start. Especially by the PUBLIC! We in Utah who are supposed to be "Loving" and "Non-Judgmental" need to think twice about who we are and who we are supposed to represent! I think personally those who are "Country Club LDS MEMBERS" are about the most judgmental egotistical and harshest people I know. I am ashamed for them, and they should be ashamed of themselves for keeping their children from playing with other children, from back-biting and being so cold to others. If these types of people were not so judgmental imagine what the growth rate of the church would be here in Utah! I feel badly for the family, and for Josh, and especially those children. More so, I feel sorry for those who judge wrongfully and are not accepting of "Outsiders" and those who need special love and help. As for those who live the way the Savior would have them live, I applaud you, because it is people like you that keep me coming back to church every week!

re My2cents
Great comment. The Cox family spokesperson calls Josh Powell's statements baseless, but their own comments are baseless. Hundreds of people have been working to find evidence of a crime, but there is nothing.
But there is evidence she had separate checking accounts and was planning on leaving her husband.
The point is that the majority of people believe Josh Powell is guilty because of what the Cox family and friends have said in statements and Josh Powell's shady camping story. But when there is some evidence that shows Susan was preparing to leave and statements that make Susan Powell look bad, the majority of people largely ignore this.
The bottom line is no one knows and there is no clear evidence that points in either direction. The best case scenario is that Josh Powell is right and the majority is wrong. That means Susan Powell is alive. I want to believe Josh Powell.

2cents-Does the LDS bashing just come out of your mouth on every Utah related
Do you have some magical way of determining that someone commenting on a Deseret News article is LDS?
And if someone finds Josh's story more than a little suspicious, (remember the whole story-Josh takes boys camping in the middle of the winter, wife disappears, something wet on the carpet with a fan running to dry it out when the police arrive)
I agree that there clearly is not enough evidence to convict.
But to attack anyone who disagrees with you, and then to assume that they all must be Mormons is just ignorant and small minded.

There is plenty of evidence of a crime. Since they only get one chance to prove
it, they want to make sure all the bases are covered.
Whatever happened to common sense? His story is so unbelieveable. Who in their right mind takes very young kids camping in the middle of the night, in the middle of a blizzard in December? Do you honestly believe he "forgot" what day of the week it was when he didn't show up for work? Yes, people do get their days of the week mixed up, but it lasts a few seconds before they realize it. That usually happens when there is a holiday or people are on vacation. Not when you have a predictable weekly schedule. He had attended church that morning. He didn't forget it was actually Monday. What about the wet spot on the carpet? Use your minds people.

Okay, I'll try again. I won't call my2Cents an idiot this time. Did she access her bank account? Surely if she was planning to leave and had a separate account she would have emptied it. Also the police went after a suspect in the Smart case and he died in jail.

How many people use a fan to dry carpet, in between a houseguest's Sunday visit AND taking their children "snow camping" in the winter?
If you're thinking Susan Powell cleaned the carpet herself, WHY would she bother doing that if she planned to run away?
If you read the Tribune, you'll find Josh's father says it was a "juice spot" and under the sofa.

Will warming worsen state water crisis?
[caption id="attachment_121428" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Drought in the Southwest in 2009, from orbit. Although recent rains boosted snow pack and water supply, experts fear that dry conditions could prevail in the future. Brown spots in Californias Central Valley are crop fields with less plant growth than average -- those that lie fallow or are growing poorly. Image courtesy NASA."][/caption]
Global warming will intensify a coming water 'crisis' in California and the rest of the Southwest, a new report from an economic research group says, with demand for groundwater far outstripping supply in the decades ahead.
A severe shortfall could push the state's water costs into the trillions over the next century.
The forecast comes from the U.S. branch of the Stockholm Environmental Institute, a research affiliate of Tufts University in Massachusetts, in a new study, "The Last Drop: Climate Change and the Southwest Water Crisis."
The idea was to call attention to the potential effects of climate change on "ordinary Americans," said Frank Ackerman, a senior economist at the institute and director of its Climate Economics Group.
"It's not all about polar bears and things far away from you," Ackerman said. "It's not just about people who chose to live in Key West being hit by hurricanes. It's about ordinary Americans around the country starting to feel the effects of climate change."
The study's authors plotted water use and supply costs for California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah, projecting them to 2110.
The entire Southwest could see a shortfall of 1.85 billion acre feet over the next 100 years, the report says.
With the effects of global warming, add as much as 439 million more. That works out to a total cost estimate as high as $5 trillion.
The numbers for California alone are stark: a shortfall of 1,423 million acre feet by 2110, enough to supply 2.8 million typical families for a year, with as much as 227 million of that due to climate change.
Demand for groundwater could rise to three times the supply, and making up for the shortage could cost as $1.78 trillion to $3.15 trillion, depending on whether the costs cover, say, building new reservoirs at the lower end or somehow finding additional imported water at the higher. Between $200 billion and $500 billion of that would be due to climate change.
"Even with no climate change, it's very hard to see how California or the region will get the water needed," Ackerman said. "And climate change makes a bad situation worse."
The study's authors created three computer models to make the projections, two with a special focus on California. The first of those projects water supply and demand and the second models agricultural use.
A third projects the generation of water and electricity in an 11-state area.
The study also forecasts high and low-end effects, depending on how well California and the rest of the Southwest adapts to restricted water supplies.
Adaptation, the study says, could be the only way out.
The authors examined ocean-water desalination, calling it "extremely expensive." Simply importing more water, they said, is "infeasible," because surrounding states also are arid.
Groundwater is already being overdrawn -- a separate study recently reported severe depletion in the state's Central Valley -- eliminating that option for the century ahead.
And waiting until a crisis hits before imposing restrictions could lead to "real hardship and draconian measures."
Planned reduction, they said, is the only "viable option."
The report also looks at slow versus fast adaptation to a new, drier reality.
"The slow one sounds reasonable, the fast one unreasonable," Ackerman said. "It turns out the fast one is what's needed in order to make the balance work."

I have noticed that the sort order I set up in NextGen Gallery panel is never respected.
The "order" shortcode just overrides it:
asc=sorts using filenames
desc=sorts using filenames
these two options are pretty useless unless you rename images before upload.
it would be perfect just using the standard nextgen logic i.e. using the order specified in the nextgen manage gallery > sort feature.
is this possibile?


text:
I didn't see any documentation for the shortcode other than saying that you can give the option of the user ID. Is there more you can do with the shortcode? It would be nice if you could fill out all the information used in the box, like:
[social-bio name="Joe Smith" desc="Pioneer in short-code writing style." web="http://www.joesmith.com/" facebook="http://www.facebook.com/joesmith" twitter="http://twitter.com/joesmith"]
Something like that.
Also, I think it would be useful to be able to create a library of bios for use on the site. For example, if I have 5 guest authors, I create 5 bios with name, desc, social links, etc. and instead of saying [social-bio id=xxx] for social bios which draw their info from the user profile, you could say [social-bio lib=xxx] for a user drawn from the library of profiles.
If you could track all the articles linked to that author profile and be able to display the number of articles linked to that person, and list them when the user clicks on the button, even better.

If a tree falls in a neighborhood….who's responsible?
Posted by
Staff Writer

Many readers of this column saw the picture of the pine tree across my home several weeks ago on the front page of The Baxley News-Banner. Because the tree fell from my neighbor's yard and not my own, many assume that the neighbor would be responsible. At first blush, this seems to make good sense but the law in Georgia on matters such as this provides that she is not liable and for good reason.
First, to explain the scenario, our neighborhood is covered in huge pine trees. Our section of Anthony Street especially is rampant with pond pines (pinus serotina), which are native to Southeast Georgia and grow in typically wet areas. The outward appearance of the tree suggested that it was healthy until immediately before it fell. This fact would be key to any legal wrangling that might commonly result from an incident of this nature. Experts believe the tree likely had heart rot which is a condition caused by a fungus causing the tree to weaken from the inside out. The evidence of this could be clearly seen where the tree snapped off four feet above ground level, but was not otherwise apparent from the outward appearance of the tree.
In Georgia, landowners are generally not liable for damages caused by trees falling from their property unless they knew or had reason to know that the tree presented a dangerous condition. In other words, if a landowner of reasonable prudence would have concluded that a particular tree needed to be pruned or cut down and failure to do so caused the damage, the tree's landowner would be responsible. I have had the opportunity to litigate this issue on a couple of prior occasions. The first involved an apparently healthy tree being blown onto a neighbor's house. In that case, the Court correctly ruled that since the tree (which was healthy) fell due to wind only and not the wind and combined negligence of the landowner, the landowner was not liable. In a different case, I represented a landowner who had a tree with a rotten top that fell on a building on adjoining property. In that case, though the tree was rotten, we were able to have the case dismissed because the landowner, who owned several thousand acres and likely millions of pine trees, had no actual or constructive notice of the tree's condition. This latter scenario was explored in 2013 by a Chatham County jury when they returned a $12 million verdict against the City of Savannah in a case involving an oak limb that fell and impaled a young woman. In that case the jury believed that, although there was no evidence that the City actually knew the limb was a danger to fall, the City should have known that it would present a dangerous condition to passing motorists.
The good news is that we have homeowners' insurance and the good folks at the local insurance company are taking care of this issue for us. The moral to this story is that if you have a tree in your yard that looks like it could be dangerous, take the appropriate steps to neutralize the threat before any harm occurs. Further, if your neighbor has a diseased, dying or otherwise dangerous looking tree, you should give proper written notice to make that owner responsible for any damage caused by the tree's falling.

I visit this store several times a week during my lunch hour. It seems there is always something I need, they have it and a reasonable price and I can get in and out quickly. The people who work there are without fail very friendly, very helpful and act like they remember me as a friend. Their attitudes make me want to come back ...they are becoming my freinds.
I give it three stars 2 for the store and one for the Pharmacy. The Pharmacy is horrible. Worst Pharmacy I have ever been to. They were rude and did not even know how to do their job. They could not even tell e why they filled the wrong prescription. Never have your meds filled there if you want the right ones filled!
