Indian flag @ National Military Memorial, Bangalore
At 213 feet, the flag pole erected at the National Military Memorial on T Chowdaiah Road in Bangalore is arguably the tallest in India. The Indian national tricolor flag — measuring 48 feet wide, 72 feet tall and weighing 31 kg — is reckoned to be the largest hoisted in India.
Floating in Dead Sea
Dead sea is 34.2% salt and rest water – which is about 9.6 times more salty than ocean water – making it denser than our Human body helping us float without any effort. Also, the surface is 427 meters below sea level making it the lowest known place on Earth. The Dead Sea gets its name due to the absence of any life forms in its water.
Masada – the last Jewish fortress
Masada is an ancient fortress ruin located atop a barren rock plateau overlooking the Dead Sea. Masada is historically important to Jews and one of the most popular tourist destinations of Israel. It was at Masada where one of the last known Jewish resistance came to an end during the First Jewish-Roman war.

Market Recap:
The market followed through from Wednesday' weakness, as it did not get the perfect set of data and earnings that we stated it needed in yesterday's wrap-up. The issue for the market was a 38K rise in jobless claims to 368K vs. 345K expectations. That jump put a negative spin on the jobs information heading into the crucial non-farm payrolls tomorrow. Additionally, the market got data from Chicago PMI and Personal Spending/Income. Chicago PMI was very strong at 55.6, beating expectations of 50.5. Personal Income came in at 2.6% vs. 0.7% expectations as well, which was a strong signal for the market. The income rose mostly as a result of assets being sold before a potential fiscal cliff/tax rise in 2013. The strong numbers, however, could not outweigh weakness from initial claims and yesterday's miss in GDP.
Stocks To Trade:
Today, we are looking at an earnings trade in Oracle (NYSE:ORCL), long in Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM), and short in VMware (NYSE:VMW).
For an earnings trade, we like the looks of ORCL into March. The company reports in mid-March, and expectations are for a 4% increase in revenue and 6% increase in EPS. While neither number screams growth, we believe it will be a very solid quarter for the company's cloud business, as well as hardware. Pacific Crest recently commented that it believes Oracle will see a solid amount of demand for its hardware division. Most of the hardware that looks attractive revolves around the cloud -- servers and data storage systems that came from the acquisition of Sun Microsystems. The last quarter showed a solid growth of Oracle's cloud services, showing 17% growth in cloud subscriptions and licenses. For ORCL, this shift to a subscription model definitely makes revenue different, but we believe better. For years, the company got its licenses in one payment with an average maintenance cost. The shift to cloud, though, is often about software, which tends to be a subscription-based model. Will this be a positive for ORCL? We believe so. The company is already seeing margin expansion as its revenue makeup shifts. In the last quarter, TTM operating margin came up to 38.3% from the 2012FY reading of just under 27%. Further, ROE has jumped from 24% to nearly 25%. The company's Fusion Analytics, which was researched for years, is finally paying off, as it fits nicely with the company's cloud network offerings. One concern for the earnings report, itself, is what is happening with Oracle's database, 12c. If the company delays, it could hurt the stock, as the growth of this new database is starting to be priced into shares currently. The 12c will allow for cloud network users to share one database and keep data private -- similar to Salesforce.com's (NYSE:CRM) Chatter. Right now, ORCL is in a great spot, as the company is moving into the cloud space, bringing in its technology in, along with solid hardware. Sun appears to be paying off in that hardware, and we like shares to stay strong into the next report. Right now, we like grabbing the Mar16 34/32 bull put spread for 13% max gain.
Trade: ORCL, Mar16, Mar16 34/32 Bull Put Spread
Max Gain: 13%
For longs, we like the looks of Qualcomm. Wednesday's earnings report was very solid and showed a really great diversity of customers, quelling fears that the company was too connected to Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). When Apple missed on earnings, many feared that QCOM, which is featured in iPhones, was going to have a weaker report. Today, the company proved that is not the case. The company reported revenue at $6B, as well as EPS at 1.26. The company beat expectations of $5.9B and 1.13, respectively. In the last two quarters of 2012, it is projected that 388M smartphones were shipped worldwide. The demand for phones is very solid, but we may see some slowdown in 2013. The reason, as Samsung notes, is that phone users are locked into contracts that can delay new purchases. While that fear exists, we believe QCOM has proven that it has a very solid revenue diversification, and some of the fears about 2013 may be overdone. 2013 should see a big push to 4G LTE in developed markets while emerging markets move from 2G to 3G. The company is in a large amount of phones in different markets, which we believe makes it a safe play. If the company was dedicated to just 3G or 4G, earnings may be much less consistent and create volatility. Right now, the company is expected to see over 15% growth in EPS in FY13. Yet, it has only a 13 future PE. We believe shares are still very cheap at these levels, and the stock has been too connected to the success/failure of AAPL for too long. We like grabbing QCOM long and adding a 62.50/60 bull put spread for Mar16 to hedge the position.
Equity Trade: Long QCOM and Mar16 62.50/60 Bull Put Spread
Buy Point: 67.00/Max Gain on Spread: 13%
One stock that we like for a bearish position is VMware. For some time, VMW has looked worrisome due to overvaluation and crowded space in the company's cloud industry. The company's latest results showed some solid growth, but shares were hit hard. The question now is can they bounce back, or will they be mired at current levels for some time? The latest round of earnings for VMW showed over 20% growth in revenue and beat EPS estimates (0.81 vs. 0.78). Yet, with a PE near 60 before earnings, the company had to produce a flawless report. VMW signaled some trouble might be ahead, as it laid off 900 workers. The layoffs are around 7% of the business. While the layoffs will mostly come from the SlideRocket venture, which was not paying off for VMW, the layoffs are still a black eye. When you have such high valuations, any signs of negativity are going to be detrimental. In the long run, VMW can focus on more profitable business ventures, but we worry about the next couple months. Without earnings for a couple months, the stock may be stagnant until some good news come through for the company. We believe that a bear call spread is an appropriate play VMW right now with its recent drop and lack of bounce back so far. The levels we like are 85/87.50 for Mar16 expiration. We believe this play is a great way to hedge if you are long, as well as get involved in the stock if it does retake 87.50 because it can only do that if something very solid happens for the company.
Position: VMW, Mar16, 85/87.50 Bear Call Spread
Max Gain: 12%
Tomorrow's Outlook:
The market should get some pretty strong movement tomorrow from the NFP report. Non-Farm Payrolls is one of the best indicators of job growth in the marketplace, and a beat there could help the market reverse its last two days of weakness. A weak reading could do some significant damage to the market with indices as overbought as they are. Besides NFP, the unemployment rate will be critical to the market, as well as Michigan Sentiment, ISM Index, and Construction Spending. It's a packed day of data that should give way to some strong buying/selling. NFP is expected to come in at 180K vs. 155K last month, while unemployment is expected to drop to 7.7% from 7.8%. Those are the two key numbers to watch. As for earnings, we do get some key reports tomorrow from ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM), Chevron (NYSE:CVX), and Merck (NYSE:MRK). It's going to be a jam-packed day with lots of movement. Get ready!

Is this enough warning for payent for a school trip?(26 Posts)
Letter came home in October saying DS (Y10) was to go on a compulsory geograaphy trip which would cost a total of £180.
£30 was to be paid by the end of October, the remainder by the end of February.
This was the first I'd heard of or thought about this trip, which made me feel a bit stupid, because when I thought about it even when I was at school geograhpy GCSE had a compulsory trip.
So I paid the first instalment, and have just paid £35 more....DH and I both work, but have 3DC, and have to have to keep a very close eye on our budget. I've realised becuase I've paid the £35 instalment, I now will have to give up some other luxury, which will probably me my works night out.
Is this normal for a school trip? Is this normal for life? I won't tell you all how much our family income is, as there will be 100 posts telling us that should be more than enough to suport a family of 5.
The school is a comprehensive in an affluent area (with highish house prices) ....surely there will be other families struggling to pay for the trip.
I wondering whether to ask relatives to contiribute for DSs Christmas/birthday present, but feel that would be a bit mean, and would rather go without myself.
Sounds rough to me. My DD is doing geography GCSE, and has done trips to Snowdon and Iceland, but neither were compulsory and a lot of the GCSE students didn't go.
They should also have given you more notice of when payment was due.
I don't think it unreasonable for relatives to contribute as a birthday/Christmas present. I know my parents loathe spending £30 on a Sims game, but would happily contribute the same amount of money to an educational trip!
Actually I do not think it is hugely unreasonable, but it should really have been flagged up at the start of the GCSE course, ie in September or when FCSE choices were made. At my DDs school they always did a schedule of trips about a year in advance but many were way more expensive than this. There are always a few that cannot afford to go, or do not want to go, but if you are both working I would try and see how you can afford it. I would put a school trip down as a priority and go without, personally. These trips are normally very helpful for keen learners. Could be worse, they could be going to Iceland. Why not start a saving scheme for all your children to fund trips, or save any child benefit, if you get it? I am sure many people will be feeling the pinch at the moment, but children cost money and I am sure the school has tried to keep costs down. Perhaps you could ask for more notice in future as you may not be the only parent who needs a but more time to save up.
I dunno, it's "only" £15 a month over the year. That's not a huge amount I expect on your budget. Should have been more clear what the costs were, probably.
I'm confused. Your DS is in Year 10, so started his GCSE in September. You were told about the trip in October, with 5 months to pay for the trip. I'm assuming the trip isn't in February as you just say installments need to be in by then. So you have at least 6 months or more notice of the trip. Apart from telling you about it one month earlier, I'm not sure how much more notice they could have given. Did you want to be told about it in Year 9? Sorry if I have mis-understood.
Last year ds2 had a history trip with school, not compulsory, but he really wanted to go. Total £200 to be paid in 4 monthly instalments of £50.
Which would've been fine....except what actually happened was that three of the cheques I gave ds were kept and not banked - ds took home the receipts for them, so when I noticed on statements they hadn't been cashed, I phoned school. Which resulted in £150 being debited from my account in one go!
I am very fortunate that I was able to take that hit, but a lot of the parents at ds's school are probably not in that position. I pointed that out to teacher at time, and they have now amended the way they sort out trip payments, and the office staff do banking, so that this doesn't happen again.
Exactly lljkk it's opnly £15 a month over the year. But first installment had to be paid by 11th November, or thereabouts, which left familes unable to have budgeted for it that month.
The first installment was actuall £35, not £30, sorry. I have £110 left to pay, which will be £55 in January and £55 in Febuary. We can pay this withought harship, but not all families are as fortunate as us.
Yes, it would have been nice to know about the trip, in Y9. I'm pretty sure the school knew about it.
I think I may have become a bit of a bugeting freak.
the school will cope with the money being a bit late ....
they start the payment schedules early to allow budgeting time
ours now has an online payment system so I slap all such things on the credit card and settle them at the end of the month
just make sure its fully paid up by a week before departure
Our school has an (optional) MFL GCSE trip in Feb half term, costing alot (but cheaper than taking the whole family).
Fine, it's on the school website, so we have known it exists for a few years.
Only problems:
1) A year beforehand we had 2 weeks notice to sign up and provide £100 deposit. We had no idea we would be committing so early.
2) The sign up period finished 1 week before the GCSE options form had to be in. We insisted DD put in her options form before we signed up for the trip. No way were we paying for a trip if she wasn't going to do the language!
At least we're now forewarned for the other MFL trip next year, as DD is doing 2 languages!
As the trip is compulsory, the school will have a fund to cover costs for families in genuine difficulty.
Five months notice for £180. I don't think it's at all unreasonable. It is part of life - children are expensive and you have to budget for them. Can you get extra hours or can your DS get a Saturday job if things are especially tough?
In our options booklet there was a section at the bottom of each course with extra costs involved and an estimate based on previous years. So we knew my daughter would have to go on a theatre trip with drama (circa £30) and son to London with History (circa £150). As it turns out nothing has been said about London, so I think it has probably been stopped because it's not so essential.
I don't think the timing is that bad but you should have had prior warning of some sort.
children are expensive and you have to budget for them.
Yes, I've budgeted for for my children - but I was unaware of this trip, so it wasn't included in my budget!
As already said, we can pay for the trip without hardship, but not everybody is in the same situation as us.
Our Y10 trip is only a day trip and so will be under £15. You do not have to do a residential for GCSE. A Level fieldtrips, 2 x 3 days come in at £280 in total.
That's a lot of money for a 'compulsory' trip. As said, up thread, if it's compulsory and you genuinely can't afford it you should contact the school and they may help you out.
My kids go to a selective school and the only compulsory trip they operate is in year 8 and it's one of the school's 'selling points' at open evenings so parents know about it well in advance. That only costs about £150, the school makes it well known that they will help parents in difficulties and it's not subject-related.
DS finished geography GCSE in the summer and the only trips he only went on were a couple of local one-day trips (but still managed to get an A* despite nothing more elaborate). He's doing A level geog now and, so far, no talk of expensive trips.
Really, state schools shouldn't arrange compulsory subject-related trips unless they are paid for from school funds.
Only one very local cheap trip for frog GCSE here. No £180 compulsory trips, I'd question very hard if this is really necessary.
Dearest, nearly compulsory, trip £45 to see a play for Drama, but we live a fair way from London so that sort of thing is always £££
My DD1 attends a comp and she has a compulsory trip to France at the end of year 7 which costs £250.00. I think we were told about this at the open evening before applying to the school , and there was a letter asking for the deposit within the welcome letter we received in may.
Marmite - I wonder why a trip to France should be compulsory. Do they all have to study French?
The school has a language specialism so they all study 2 languages (at least in years 7 & 8 - not sure after that). The trip happens during term time and is apparently part of the curriculum... it will bd interesting to see if all of the children do go.
Yes, there will be other families who will struggle. Many of those families will not want to discuss the fine details of their family circumstances with the school. These families will then have to scrimp to afford to send DCs on these trips.
Chances are the trip does not need to be as big or as expensive. It is something the school has got into and has not reviewed.
My DCs have done History and the compulsory trip (examinable coursework) has been a £25/head day trip to some Roman ruins . In fact DD1 didnt go on the trip (it clashed with another exam) and still managed an A grade.
I am surprised at some of the negative attitude to school trips here. My DDs gained hugely from theirs. I will honestly say that we did not have to scrimp and save for the trips but I would have moved heaven and earth for them to go. Irrespective of the ultimate grade in the subject, school trips are about more than that. It is a great experience to go away with your friends. It is fun. You might learn something or have an experience you could not replicate at home. One of my daughters did a cookery class for a week in Italy and brought all the recipes home that she had hand written in Italian. They learned about Italian culture, did their shopping, cooking and sightseeing whilst staying in a fabulous Tuscan town. It was a wonderful experience.
I was also very grateful that the teachers were willing to put in so much time and effort into the trip making it a huge success. There were several other similarly brilliant ones, all organised by excellent teachers. If I was a teacher organising a trip I would be very downhearted at all the comments saying what I was doing was wrong. You do not have to go on a trip, but it is such a shame if it then does not go ahead and it is spoilt for others who do value it.
Milly - I'm not in the slightest bit anti school trips. I think they're fantastic. One of my sons went on a school rugby trip to LA and New Zealand and it was one of the best experiences of his life. What I'm anti is compulsory trips.
Marmite - that's interesting. Ours has a language specialism too - kids choose french or spanish in year 7 and also do mandarin. In year 8 they continue with their french or spanish but can swap mandarin for German. No compulsory trips but lots of short optional trips to relevant countries.
I too am very happy with school trips and feel we were given plenty of advance motive - a year in thx case of the French trip, and have been able to pay on instalments.
In Dd1's school they study French and Spanish in year 7 and then in year 8 they can swap one of these languages for either Russian, Latin of German. They can do Mandarin or Japanese too, but I think these are twilight classes.
Millymollyma - I love the sound of the Italian cooking trip!
I'm not in favour of compulsory (or quasi compulsory) residential school trips. In all honesty my DCs have got pretty much nothing from them. My DCs have traveled and also lived abroad so possibly a different situation
I dont think that schools shouldnt offer them just that parents shouldnt be guilted into them on the grounds that if you dont send your DCs then the trip wont run.
The trip should stand or fall on its own merits including content, affordability and value for money. Affordability and value for money arent just that there is a hardship fund for the parents on the breadline but also that all parents do have the right to decide how limited family funds are used. One child going on a school trip to France vs the whole family going to France albeit in a campsite may not be a good trade.
my nephew is going on a school trip next year and we were all asked to contribute birthdays and Christmas. initially I wasn't chuffed as I would rather he got an actual present but then when I thought about it I didn't mind. if it's the only way to afford for him to go just ask them.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have a second mortgage and we are behind, but not in foreclosure. The have turned down our request for a modification. Is Chapter 13 a viable solution, so we can keep out home?
The answer is a 'maybe'. It depends on how much your house is worth and if there is any equity beyond the amount of the first mortgage to support the second. For more information on this complex area, you can go to my blog entry on lien stripping in Chapter 13. The link is below.Ask a similar question
Mr Carroll will I be able to do a Chapter 7 to save my home. The 2nd mortgage is foreclosing?
Quite possibly. First, it will address your other debt to free up money to pay the mortgage. It will allow you to cure the deficiency, or, if the first mortgage balance exceeds the value of the house, you can strip it off and get rid of it completely. See an experienced bankruptcy lawyer to go over whether this is a good option for you.Ask a similar question
It is only an option if the fair market value of your house does not exceed the balance of the first mortgage, in which event you would likely benefit from stripping off the second lien, and having it treated as an unsecured creditor.
Whether or not chapter 13 would be a benefit to you depends on your financial situation, which should be reviewed by an experienced bankruptcy attorney.
Good luck.
General legal advice is offered for educational purposes only. A consultation with a qualified attorney is required to determine specific legal advice as to your situation and applicable law. We are a debt relief agency and we help people file for relief under the bankruptcy laws.Ask a similar question
Only if the fair market value of your home at the time you file your bankruptcy is less than what you owe on the primary (1st mortgage). Otherwise, no.Ask a similar question
You need to sit down with a knowledgeable bankruptcy attorney. After an initial consultation that needn't take longer than 30 to 40 minutes (and often without charge), an attorney who knows what he or she doing will be able to explain what bankruptcy is and what it is not and how it might fit in your particular situation. A chapter 13 bankruptcy is at the very least a way to take control of your own financial situation. The first gentleman who answered this question is in Walker'ville, just north of Frederick. My office is in Greenbelt and I use a second office in Columbia Maryland. I have no doubt that there are qualified bankruptcy attorneys closer to where you live but I'd be happy to meet with you myself.

This answer is very general and based only on the incomplete information in the question. You should not rely on this answer as final or authoritative or legal advice. Call me. Arrange a time for a free consultation. I can get the information necessary to give you an answer you can rely on.Ask a similar question
Possibly. I agree with the other answers. If the value of your home is less than the balance of your first mortgage, than you have the option of filing chapter 13 to strip off the second mortgage--to get rid of this lien and the payments.
Its a good option for many people. It will make your home more affordable and allow you more funds to pay the first mortgage.
Chapter 13 is a more complicated area vs chapter 7, make sure you see an experienced bankruptcy attorney to talk about whether chapter 13 will work for you.
See the link to my recent newsletter posted on Facebook below for a more detailed discussion of how chapter 13 works. I hope this helps.
No attorney client relationship is established until both parties sign a retainer agreement. The questioner is advised to hire a lawyer to address this issue and obtain complete legal advice.Ask a similar question
To be able to get rid of a second mortgage in a Chapter 13 your home would have to be worth less than what you owe on your first mortgage. To see if this is a possibility you may check with a local realtor and ask them to do a comparative market analysis to see for what price similar or comparable homes are selling. If this is the case you then need to review your other debts and assets to figure out what a Chapter 13 payment plan may look like, and if you can afford it and your first mortgage payment. It is also important to make sure that you plan on staying in the home long enough that it is likely that when you do go to sell it that you will not still be selling for a loss at that time.Ask a similar question
You need to sit down with a bankruptcy attorney and discuss your options. There is also the option of making an option of a one time lump sum payment to satisfy the mortgage.Ask a similar question

Description: *NGOs are under fire for being "unaccountable" to anyone; this is the first book to tackle fully the politics, pitfalls, and benefits of NGO accountability * Offers the world's hundreds of thousands of NGOs principles and innovative solutions for assessing and developing viable accountability *Input and cases studies from NGOs such as Action Aid, and from every part of the globe including China, Indonesia, Latin America, and Africa As the fastest growing segment of civil society, as well as featuring prominently in the global political arena, NGOs are under fire for being "unaccountable." But who do NGOs actually represent? Who should they be accountable to and how? This book provides the first comprehensive examination of the issues and politics of NGO accountability and governance across all sectors internationally. It offers an assessment of the key technical tools available including legal accountability, certification, and donor-based accountability regimes, and questions whether these are appropriate and viable options or attempts to "rollback" NGOs to a more one-dimensional function as organizers of national and global charity. In the spirit of moving towards greater, real accountability the book looks in detail at innovations that have developed from within NGOs and offers new approaches and flexible frameworks that enable accountability to become a reality for all parties worldwide.

He said losing the One-day series 1-4 was disappointing but Test matches would be a different ball game.
''It is disappointing that we lost the One-day series. We came here with big expectations but we couldn't adjust to the conditions, whether it was batting or bowling. It's a big learning experience on what line and lengths to bowl on these slow wickets,'' said Chappell.
He also seemed worried with the fact that strike bowler Irfan Pathan was struggling to find his rhythm.
''He is struggling for confidence but he is experienced and will bounce back. I think he is trying too hard, he should relax and turn it around quickly,'' the coach said.
''His pace is not a concern. He is trying to ball a bit quicker.
But on these wickets there isn't big margin for error. He should be careful,'' Chappell said.
Under the Australian, India has preferred to play five bowlers in both the One-days and Test matches. In the last ODI in Port of Spain, India played four bowlers but even then batting did not click. But Chappell said team combination would depend on the wickets.
''I am not steadfast on five bowlers but to be a good side and to win I feel five bowlers are needed. However, it will be horses for courses. Depending on ground we will play either four or five bowlers and also decide on playing one or two spinners,'' he explained.
Even though the Indian bowlers were carted for 300 runs in 72 overs by a second-class Antiguan team in the ongoing warm-up match, Chappell said he was satisfied with the day's play.
''It was a good day. We wanted to get the right line and length and barring Irfan, others bowled quite well,'' he said.
The India coach also felt that the inclusion of fresh players would invigorate the team.
''It is always helpful to have fresh players, they bring in invigoration. The key is to focus and play well. (Anil) Kumble and (VVS) Laxman bring loads of experience with them along with the other young guys who have just joined,'' said Chappell.
Indian team is playing a two-days practice match at the Police Grounds here which has a rough outfield and even the pitch is uneven. But Chappell is not complaining.
''This is the best available ground for practice. We are happy as two days of this is better than two days of net practice,'' said Chappell.
He also admitted that Ajit Agarkar was most impressive in one-dayers and would be missed in the Test series.
''Ajit Agrakar, is not here, he bowled well. Along with Harbhajan (Singh), he was best in the series. But selection decision was taken and he was not picked and that's it for us. We are concentrating on those who are here,'' said Chappell.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy
February 24, 2012 by staff
Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Viewers could be in for a shake up this season on Dancing with the Stars. "I still don't know if I'm on the show," Maksim Chmerkovskiy tells ET Canada. In good humor he added, "maybe everybody's going to be really short [this sseason]." At 6'2," he says, "It's not going to be a good pairing."
Meanwhile, producers have made the call to Giuliana Rancic. "Yes, I've been approached for the new season," she confirmed to E! News about her involvement.
"I've been a big fan of the show for years," she said. "But sadly, my schedule at the moment would never allow for the grueling rehearsal commitment. Who knows, maybe Bill and I can be on the show together one day and go toe-to-toe for the trophy."
As for Maks, don't count him out just yet. "I'm happy to return every season," he said. "Every off-season, something changes, something happens to make me realize how good I have it, and that's the most important thing. A little bit of competitiveness goes away and a little bit of appreciation takes over and I'm very appreciative of the show and what the show has done for me and for us. And, I shouldn't be really upset about the little things and appreciate the big ones."

Charles Henry Hall (priest)
Charles Henry Hall (1763–1827) was an English churchman and academic, Dean of Christ Church, Oxford and then Dean of Durham.
He was the son of Charles Hall (1718–1774), dean of Bocking, Essex, and Elizabeth Carsan (b. 1738), and uncle of watercolour artist John Frederick Tayler.[1] He was admitted to Westminster School in 1775, was elected Christ Church, Oxford, and matriculated on 3 June 1779. In 1781 he won the chancellor's prize for Latin verse on 'Strages Indica Occidentalis,' and in 1784 the English essay on 'The Use of Medals.' He graduated B.A. in 1783, M.A. in 1786, B.D. in 1794, and D.D. in 1800. From 1792 to 1797 he was tutor and censor of Christ Church. In 1793 he served the office of junior proctor.[2]
He was presented by his college to the vicarage of Broughton-in-Airedale, Yorkshire, in 1794. That same year saw his marriage to Anna Maria Bridget Byng (1771–1852), daughter of the Hon. John Byng (later fifth Viscount Torrington). In 1798 he was appointed Bampton lecturer and prebendary of Exeter. He became rector of Kirk Bramwith, Yorkshire, in June 1799, and prebendary of the second stall in Christ Church Cathedral on 30 November of that year. In 1805 he was made sub-dean of Christ Church, and in 1807 vicar of Luton, Bedfordshire, a preferment which he held until his death.[2]
In February 1807 he was elected Regius Professor of Divinity, and moved to the fifth stall in Christ Church. He resigned both offices in October 1809, on being nominated Dean of Christ Church. He was prolocutor of the lower house of convocation in 1812. On 26 February 1824 he was installed Dean of Durham. He died at Edinburgh on 16 February 1827. He published his 'Bampton Lectures' on 'Fulness of Time' in 1799, and some single sermons.[2]

Khloe Kardashian Sued for Attacking Transgender Woman
A transgender woman reported to cops that Khloe Kardashian had beat the crap out of her outside a Hollywood nightclub. The news came in the same week "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" aired an episode of the Kardashian sisters taking a stand against bullying.
Chantal Spears who was known as Ronald Spears claimed the reality star beat her violently "in and about her body" outside Playhouse nightclub on Hollywood Boulevard on December 5, 2009. Khloe reportedly was angry after Chantal approached her husband, Lamar Odom, and said he was "too young to be married".
"All I was telling Lamar Odom is maybe he is too young to get married, and all of a sudden I get this big push from this girl," Chantal told TMZ. Chantal also said that she tried to defend herself but Khloe pushed her again, causing Chantal bodily harm.
No one was arrested or cited at that time but Chantal is now launching a lawsuit because she believed she did not provoke anyone. Chantal is asking for unspecified damages.

Thomas & Friends is a British children's television series, which had its first broadcast on the ITV network on 4 September 1984. It is based on The Railway Series of books by the Reverend Wilbert Awdry and his son, Christopher Awdry. These books deal with the adventures of a group of anthropomorphised locomotives and road vehicles who live on the fictional Island of Sodor.

Making the reservation directly through the hotel website a couple of months ago was not possible and we had to use a third party agent - I assume this is now fixed ?
Check-in was very smooth and although we arrived a couple of hours before 2.00 p.m. Christian arranged a room for us quickly. Our oceanview (I think they all are) deluxe room was great; a wide floor to ceiling window and sizeable balcony with a spectacular view straight from a very comfortable bed. The room featured modern minimalistic decorations and there are no shabby couches or dirt absorbing thick carpets. Flat screened well functioning TV is mounted to the wall. Plenty of channels with good reception available. Functional small bathroom with a walk-in shower. Our room was spotless on arrival and was well serviced on a daily basis. There is no minibar and no fridge which is a small minus.
There is a comfortable, airy lobby area with a good and free wifi connection (wifi did not work in the room very well).
There is a very stylish pool and waterfront area with good access to sea and a jacuzzi in a perfect spot. The whole area is quite spectacular making the hotel premises a pleasant environment to spend time. Even the beach chairs are very comfortable. Only the lounge music that apparently is played on Sunday 1-6 p.m was a bit annoying to our taste but this was not such a big issue - the weekly program was well announced anyway.
The Bistro restaurant under Roberto's management is well operated. We received good service all around from Wilberth, Sugci and others. Breakfast was delicious (particularly the huevos mexicanas) althought the scuba trip pick-up time from the deck at 7.20 a.m. created a bit of a challenge - I would recommend the hotel to coordinate the breakfast hours and the boat pick-up time with Scuba Du. Dinner at the Bistro was tastier than what we had in any of the restaurants we tried in San Miguel.
The location of the hotel is North of the town but it is very easy to get a taxi within minutes and it costs 60 pesos one way. Alternatively you can rent a bike from the reception. We liked the location a bit away from the occationally very busy San Miguel water front. The Cozumel airport close to the hotel does not bother at all.
There is a dive shop (Scuba Du) at the hotel. Scuba Du's main facilities are on the other side of the town (El Presidente hotel) but the boat pick-ups are arranged from the Hotel B deck very punctually. The boat trips did not take too long and never bothered us at all although most of the dive sites are in the South.
In summary, we very much enjoyed staying at Hotel B and would recommend this hotel to anyone who is not looking for an all-inclusive, big resort treatment. The price / quality ratio is in the right ballpark and the general atmosphere is comfortable.

ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone | The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly
The ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone is ZTE's latest attempt at creating a reasonably priced and carrier-specific (T-Mobile) Phablet (phone + tablet) for fans of large screen phones. If the specs are any indication, we must say that ZTE has succeeded at making quite a splash with this latest iteration of a SmartPhone.
But despite its impressive list of features in terms of design, display, camera, battery life, memory, networks, processor, connectivity, audio and video, and accessory compatibility, the ZTE ZMAX Z970 falls short on some key features (granted that the so-called key features, which we will enumerate later, are purely subjective), which the budget-conscious customers must be willing to overlook, in order to take advantage of the deal ZTE has to offer.
The Good
Before we extol the virtues of the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone, if you contemplate buying it, we think, as an educated consumer, you owe it to yourself to do your due diligence first to get acquainted with its list of features and specifications, dos and donts, by reading the "ZTE ZMAX User Manual & Safety Information ", a 160-page document. This article scratches only the surface.
Form Factor
The rectangular shape (Candy Bar), the diagonal size (5.7"), and the width (3.3") provide a generous gorilla glass screen for internet browsing, video & photo viewing, and data typing.
Although the sharpness of the angular corners interferes with the ease with which the smart phone can be slid into one's pockets, if you care to protect your phone (back and front), before putting it into your pocket, you must invest in a Skin Case Cover and a Clear Tempered Glass LCD Screen Protector Film Cover. Luckily, these indispensable accessories can be inexpensively purchased, if you know where and how to shop.
While the beautifully laid out specs tempts us to opine on them all, we're going to resist the temptation and limit our comments to just a few specs near and dear to our hearts.
The 3400mAh battery lasts a very long time when watching streamed videos. With respect to Talk Time (up to 14 hours) and Standby Time (up to 15 hours), we cannot attest to the veracity of those claims, for two (2) reasons:
- It would be insane to expose one's self to 14 hours of cell phone radiation by staying that long on the phone. A better alternative is to use a landline phone whenever possible to reduce one's exposure to cell phone radiation. However, if you are dead set on testing the 14-hour Talk Time claim, you can make a 14-hour call and put the cell phone on "Speaker".
- Since it's a matter of principle (to us) to keep one's cell phone charged at all times, we won't conduct that standby time experiment anytime soon.
Operating System
The Operating System (OS), Android 4.4 (KitKat), is a vast improvement over the previous version. Turning off the cell phone, for example, offers 3 setting modes: Silent, Silent with Vibration, and Sound; which options were not offered in the previous OS. Now you can turn on/off your phone silently, unbeknownst to curious and sensitive auditory senses.
Web Browsing
While web-surfing, you can open a New Tab, New Incognito Tab, Bookmark, view Recent Tabs, History, you may also Share, Print, Find In Page, Add to Homescreen, Request Desktop Site, Setting, ask for Help & offer Feedback.
While reading PDF documents with the Adobe Reader application, you can take note, text, freehand, or sign the documents as well.
The 8MP, 4.0X zoom, auto focus camera captures great 1080p videos, unlike the typical 5MP cameras usually associated with the low end cell phones. The 1.6MP front-facing camera is not perfect, but decent enough to engage in social narcissism (posting of selfies on social media platforms).
The video/camera can be operated in nine (9) modes:
- Normal, Auto, Manual
- HDR, Panorama, Smile
- Photo Clear, Group, and Best Shot
The internal memory (2GB RAM + 16GB ROM), for a phone within that price range, is pretty generous. But if you cram too many apps into it, video recording and photo storing spaces will be severely restricted; a plausible excuse to install a 32GB micro SD card, if you have not already done so.
With an unlocked GSM (Global System for Mobiles) phone, unlike a CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) phone, you can access any GSM network by swapping SIM Cards. In other words, you can use an unlocked AT&T cell phone on the T-Mobile network, and vice versa. The GSM feature is even more valuable if you travel aboard and want to access and take advantage of local networks' low rates.
The Bad
Although the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone comes loaded with a ton of apps, conspicuously missing are pre-installed PDF reader, built-in scanner, office suite, Firefox browser, etc. which can be downloaded at Google Play store. Most apps are free. Here are, in our view, the best customizing apps we've come across:
- EBook Reader and PDF Reader by Litter Penguin (free)
- CamScanner (free & paid)
- AndrOpen Office (free)
- Firefox Browser for Android (free), etc.
There is a myriad of apps (free & premium) to choose from at the apps store. Customizing your smart phone to your heart's content is a non-issue. Bear in mind though that most free apps are ad-supported.
The ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone comes loaded with over 40 apps: Calculator, Calendar, Camera, Flashlight, Notepad, Play Music, Sound Recorder, etc.
The Ugly
- No NFC (Near Field Communication)
- Attempts to shoot a spontaneous video or to take a picture may result, sometimes, in the display of this message: Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.
- Attempts to open downloads from micro SD Card result in shutting down the app with this message: Unfortunately, File Manager has stopped.
- Slow processor
- No built-in radio tuner, needs to download an app from the app store, can't play without WiFi or internet access.
- The battery is sealed. When it is no longer rechargeable (cycled out), your choices are to either have the phone serviced to just replace a dead battery or to dump it. Since the ZTE ZMAX will be outdated by then, do yourself a favor: buy a new phone. Or you can read:
How To Extend The Battery Life Of The ZTE ZMAX Z970 Smart Phone
- No Built-in Radio App. Listening to web radio will eat in your data allowance plan.
- At times, the Cell Phone fails to recognize a perfectly fine micro SD Card and its content, and displays this message: "No SD card. User data stored on the phone."
- Corrupt file.
- Sometimes, no matter how hard and long the Power Key is pressed and held, the phone won't turn on.
- The screen freezes sometimes. To unfreeze it, push the side power key quickly.
- Sometimes, when plugged into a live outlet, there are no indications (LED light or Battery Charging Icons) whatsoever that the phone is connected to a power source.
SD Card Corruption
The insertion of the micro SD Card into the ZTE ZMAX's micro SD Card slot may cause the phone to corrupt the SD Card's content.
At first, the only indication of the SD Card's corruption is this message, when the phone fails to open the files in the Download Folders: Unfortunately, File Manager has stopped.
The second indication that the micro SD Card is corrupted is this message, when you attempt to film a video: Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.
The third indication is pretty blunt: The mobile phone fails to read the SD Card and notifies the user with this message at the very top of the Status Bar: Damaged SD Card.
You may think something is wrong with the phone. Do not jump to hasty conclusions. Put your scientific hat on first to troubleshoot the cause. Ask the Sale Representative for help. A competent associate should be able to diagnose the source of the problem and provide a remedy.
Troubleshooting Tests
One way a representative can troubleshoot the phone is to replace your micro SD Card with another one, and try to:
Either open a micro SD Card folder/file. If this ugly message – Unfortunately, File Manager has stopped. – is displayed, the problem is obviously a damaged or corrupted SD Card. Just replace the micro SD Card to resolve the issue.
Or take a picture or shoot a video. If this hideous message – Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.- appears, the issue is your damaged or corrupted micro SD Card, not the phone. Again, replace or fix the defective SD Card. Some micro SD Card brands are more corruption-prone than others. Our brand, in the experiment, is PNY, which we do not recommend. Several attempts to format the corrupted micro SD Card resulted in the display of this message, which speaks volume about the poor quality of the card: "Windows was unable to complete the format."
A second way to troubleshoot the phone is to insert the micro SD Card into another phone (same brand, same model). If the ugly messages alluded to earlier shows up, you may draw the erroneous and hasty conclusion that both phones are defective. Far from it.
To scientifically test that inaccurate argument, insert the micro SD Card (your damaged or corrupted SD Card) into another phone (different brand, different model), this message will pop up: Damaged SD Card. Remove your SD Card immediately from the phone. We run that test on an LG Phone, without asking whether we wanted the SD Card to be re-formatted, it proceeded to format it, resulting in a major loss of data. Luckily, we had the foresight to back up the files prior to conducting the experiment, and were able to restore all our files. The lesson is to always back up the content of your SD Card before conducting any experiments.
How to Fix and Open a Corrupted and Unreadable Micro SD Card
After insertion of the micro SD Card into the Card Reader's slot, connected to the computer/laptop, via USB Cable, the following message will pop up, when attempts to open the file are made:
"The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."
Don't panic. Read this article first, then take on the challenge with confidence.
To repair the corrupted and unreadable micro SD Card, you need a:
- Memory Card Reader/Writer,
- Micro/Mini USB Cable, and
- Computer (Desktop and/or Laptop).
You can repair the corrupted micro SD Card two (2) ways:
- Reformatting, which we strongly advice against. Because formatting a SD Card wipes out completely the data contained herein, if any, it is not a recommended method to repair a corrupted SD Card. Should you choose to go the reformatting route, unless your data is backed up beforehand (a plausible excuse to always backup your data) to replace the lost information, you can kiss the erased data good bye. Forever.
- Running a Command Line, which we gladly recommend. Using a computer running Windows XP (you may try other operating systems), do the following:
- Click Start,
- Click Run,
- Input the Command Line CMD in the box, click OK (see pictures),
- Type in Chkdsk g: /r (g is the drive to repair; your Card Reader's drive letter may be different, such as (E), (F), (L), etc. /r stands for repair, it is the command that orders the computer to repair the affected drive, i.e. g in our example) at the end of C:\Documents and Settings\bcd >. You'll see:
C:\Documents and Settings\bcd > Chkdsk g: /r
The Chkdsk g: /r is highlighted in red to draw attention as to where to precisely type it in.
- Press Enter.
You may read this message: Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Chkdsk may run if this volume is dismounted first. ALL OPENED HANDLES TO THIS VOLUME WOULD THEN BE INVALID. Would you like to force a dismount on this volume? (Y/N)
Type in Y, then press Enter to begin the process.
Depending on the volume of content to repair, this operation may take 10 – 50 minutes. At the end of the process, you'll be able to open your salvaged files.
- Remove and insert the Micro SD Card back into the Card Reader/Writer's slot.
- Read the repaired data. Hopefully, the sustained damage is minimal. The bulk of your data is recouped.
- Remove the micro SD Card from the Card Reader/Writer, and insert it into the ZTE ZMAX's SD Card slot. The cell phone should recognize it and be able to open all your files (PDFs, Music, Videos, Photos, etc.). No more trouble taking pictures or shooting videos.
Dropping the phone inadvertently may prompt this message to appear: "No SD card. User data stored on the phone." You may apparently also lose video and photo files stored on the SD Card. Don't panic. The photos and videos will magically reappear in the DCIM folder.
Removal and insertion of the micro SD Card won't fix the problem, without running a command line on the SD Card. Restart and Power off/on the cell phone won't do the trick either. The only solution is to repeat the above process, i.e. running the command line on the SD Card, again. But before going through that time-consuming process again, try the removal and insertion of the SD Card, the Restarting and Power off/on of the phone; it may or may not work.
Earlier, we've alluded to the ZTE ZMAX's shortcomings in terms of "subjective" key features. We'll itemize those key features, and rate/grade the ZTE ZMAX accordingly. Those lacking key features are:
- Built-in FM Radio Tuner
- Battery Accessibility
- NFC (Near Field Communication)
- Meager Expandable Memory, and
- Wireless Charging Option
On a scale of 1 to 10 we rate the ZTE ZMAX Z970 7. Why 7? Read on.
The ZTE is so beautifully designed, that after experiencing most of its features, it leaves us begging for more, which it can't deliver in its current state. That failure to rise to the occasion leaves us with a bitter after-taste, which explains the 7 rating.
We are pretty sure that ZTE, in a later version of the ZMAX, will fill those voids to become a serious contender in the Smart Phone race. Watch out competition! Look in your rear view mirror, ZTE is hot on your trail.
Built-in FM Radio Tuner
The conspicuous absence of a built-in FM Radio Tuner is telling. In the absence of such native app, one has to rely on mindless web radio apps to stay informed (or misinformed). No internet access means no radio. The beauty of a built-in FM Radio Tuner lies in the fact that other than a headset that doubles as an antenna, internet connection is not needed to tune in.
Battery Inaccessibility
Since the battery is built-in, accessibility is denied. When the battery cycles out, your choices are pretty much limited to either dispose of the phone or to send it to ZTE or a ZTE authorized service provider to have the battery replaced, which is inconvenient. In a future article, How To Charge A Cell Phone With A Damaged Micro/Mini USB Charging Port, the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone won't be featured as an example because of battery inaccessibility.
Battery inaccessibility has two (2) drawbacks:
- When a cell phone with an accessible battery slot is discharged, all you have to do is to replace the battery with a spare and continue to use the phone. With the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone, however, that luxury is not afforded. You have to wait for it to recharge, robbing you of precious time you could have used to shoot photos and videos, browse the web, read books, or talk on the phone.
- If the micro USB Charging Port is damaged, and the battery is discharged, taking the battery out of the phone to recharge it with an external Universal Battery Charger is not an option.
Read: How To Extend The Battery Life Of The ZTE ZMAX Z970 Smart Phone
Near Field Communication
The unavailability of NFC (Near Field Communication) features for tag reading or photo, video and website exchanging information.
Meager Memory Expandability
Given the size of the ZTE ZMAX (Height 6.4", Width 3.3", Depth 0.35"), its micro SD Card should have been a generous 64 GB, to store as much data as possible, instead of the meager 32 GB. Hopefully, the next version will take those suggestions into consideration and expand the external memory capacity interface.
Wireless Charging
Tethering the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone to a USB cable to charge the battery, without the wireless charging option, seems to be out of character for a smart phone as beautiful as this one. Is it asking for too much to integrate the wireless charging capability in an evolved version of the ZTE ZMAX? We think not.
Do We Recommend It?
We certainly do. The ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone offers a ton of features without an avoirdupois price. If you are not the waiting-online-overnight-for-the-next-big-thing type, this smart phone is for you.
When we just bought the phone and started experiencing these issues, we were so frustrated, this is the review we were going to write:
Had it not been for those major flaws (inability to open downloaded files folder, inability to open video from camera app, slow processor) we would have gladly recommended the ZTE ZMAX. Save yourself the aggravation, spend a little more money to buy a better phone, a proven brand.
Our decision to buy the ZTE ZMAX (which would have been a great value: $200.00 – $250.00, had it met our expectations) was based on overwhelming positive reviews of the phone by guinea pig customers.
Unfortunately, the ZTE ZMAX – ours- turns out to be a major disappointment. Maybe we were unlucky and got saddled with a lemon. We started experiencing problems with it on the very day of purchase, right at the store. The phone could not read the installed Micro SD Card.
Since we've been able to resolve all the frustrating issues – and showed you how to tackle them if confronted with- disregard the above rant, and gladly buy the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone.
Our Advice
Our advice? Test everything at the store: Camera/Video app, SD Card, Internet Access, etc. If any issue arises, test another phone (ZTE ZMAX). If the same issues are experienced with the other phone, ditch ZTE, pick another reputable brand, which may cost extra, but you would have at least the peace of mind of having chosen a reliable phone, saving yourself time and money by avoiding unnecessary trips to the phone store to resolve the issue.
Ignore the ditching part of the above advice, pay close attention to the test-everything-at-the-store part. After testing the phone at the store, if everything is satisfactory, buy it and save yourself a bundle over the pricier phones, which basically do the same things (fewer bells and whistles aside): make and receive phone calls, access internet/Wi-Fi, stream/play videos and music, shoot videos and take pictures, play games, store data in internal and external (micro SD Cards) memories, etc.
Because the ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone is so inexpensive and gives the competition a run for the money, you won't find it prominently displayed at most stores, you have to ask for it. It is like the best kept secret.
What Should You Do With Your Old Phone?
Now that you have a brand new ZTE ZMAX Z970 Phone, what to do with your old cell phone? You can sell, trade, or keep it for emergency calls (911 – phone needs not be connected to any cell phone service provider for the emergency call to go through), emergency alerts, or for the features lacking in the ZTE ZMAX. We keep ours for the built-in FM Radio Tuner, the music stored in the Internal Memory, the external micro SD Card interface, and free Wi-Fi access.

"Our pilot was friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. We had a group of 10 people there to watch my grandpa do the flight. The pilot let us take many pictures and was patient explaining everything to us. "
"Had a great time. Now I want to get my pilot's license. "
"Overall good experience. Exciting and safe. Good instruction even in this one-off setting. Wish I could have flown a bit longer and gotten a more of a feeling for maneuvering. However, time was tight and my expectations were met. Thanks again to Kevin for navigating the delay caused by the race that morning, and getting me into the airport with an escort."

Appointment reminder service now available
RED WING, Minn. — With the New Year comes a new convenient tool to help remind Mayo Clinic Health System patients of their next clinic, lab or rehabilitation services appointment. Beginning in January, 2015, patients will receive automatic appointment reminders.
Two days in advance of the scheduled appointment, patients will receive a phone call that allows them to follow the prompts to confirm or reschedule the upcoming appointment.
"Many of our patients have been asking for this service. We understand life gets busy and sometimes appointments can be forgotten, especially if scheduled far in advance," says Tom Witt, M.D., CEO and president of Mayo Clinic Health System in Cannon Falls, Lake City and Red Wing. "If patients are unable to keep an appointment and can let us know a few days ahead of time by responding to the appointment reminder, we can help another patient who is seeking care to be seen sooner."

The unnamed Barman served Peter Barlow went he went into a pub in May 2014. Peter should have been attending a scan with Carla Barlow for the baby that neither of them had planned on but he was in the midst of a self-destructive affair with Tina McIntyre and was finding it hard to beat his personal battle of the booze. Ready for trouble, the barman watched as Peter knocked back another double short and staggered back from the jukebox where he had put on a Phil Lynott track and then listened to a rambling reminiscence about the singer and a mate of Peter's from his past.
Peter ignored a series of calls from Carla and carried on drinking to the point where he refused to serve him anymore and told him to leave. When Peter became aggressive, the barman told Peter that this was his last warning and he wouldn't have a soft landing if he chucked him out. Peter left, throwing back insults that the pub was a dive, and then had trouble negotiating his way through the complications of the establishment's front door.
