"I can see them top six!" Scholes says #CFC could make the top six once they get a striker back. #MUNCHE https://t.co/j42JRyrWCV— BT Sport Football (@btsportfootball) December 28, 2015
The Blues played out a goalless draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday night as they drew their second game since Hiddink's appointment as Jose Mourinho's successor at Stamford Bridge.
The west London side have struggled to find consistent form all season and are currently languishing in 14th place in the Premier League table after winning the title and League Cup last term.
However, Manchester United legend Scholes is fully expecting Chelsea to recover in the coming months and make their way back up the top-flight table.
Speaking on BT Sport after Monday's draw with United, Scholes told BT Sport: "I can see them top six, top seven maybe. But I'm sure once they get a centre-forward back they'll get up that league.
"They have to be better than they were here today. They looked tired to me.
"But I expect them to start winning games and move up that league."

Today Jon Cruddas MP launched his public consultation of Eastbrook Ward, to find out what people think of recent proposals to build a mosque on the May and Baker Community Club land, next to the Sanofi regeneration site. In the most recent discussions with the trustees a prayer room in the community club has been alluded to rather than the initial plans for a mosque. However, a final decision has not yet been made on the future of the site. As with all developments in the local area Jon wants to know what the local residents think.
Over the past two weeks many residents have been contacting Jon Cruddas regarding the proposed plans to build a mosque on the Sanofi site near Dagenham East. Last month the Trustees of the May and Baker Community Club were approached by Barking & Dagenham Council on behalf of Barking Mosque, and a meeting took place with council Leader Cllr Darren Rodwell, along with a member of the council planning department. A general proposal was been agreed in principle with little or no consultation with local residents.
The future of state-of-the-art scientific buildings at Sanofi's former manufacturing plant in Dagenham, east London, has finally been secured following an agreement with regeneration specialists SOG Group to purchase the facilities for an undisclosed sum.
SOG Group, owner and operator of the award-winning The Heath Business and Technical Park in Runcorn, Cheshire, has been lead consultant advising Sanofi on the overall regeneration programme at Dagenham.
The number of unemployed claimants in Dagenham and Rainham constituency in July 2014 was 2,051. This represents a rate of 4.2% of the economically active population aged 16 to 64, the 168th highest of the 650 UK constituencies. (1st = highest rate of unemployment, 650th = lowest rate of unemployment.)
Improvement works at Rainham Road South will begin 10 March 2014 to make it easier for drivers and pedestrians accessing the former Sanofi site.
A new junction will be installed with new improved pedestrian crossings when work starts in March at the Reede Road/Dagenham East area at Rainham Road South.
During the improvement works, which are expected to last until June 2014, the Council is urging drivers to take alternative routes.

Clooney is sly as fox and a jetsetter in Up in the Air and Fantastic Mr. Fox
George Clooney's latest films both represent zeitgeist at its lightest and most poignant forms. In "Up in the Air" dir Jason Reitman, Clooney is a soul searching type faced with life's challenges - Clooney is both funny and pensive and always charming. Appropriate for the unemployed generation - this movie makes us laugh and cry and asks us questions like what are we doing with our lives.
As the animated character's voice of the Fantastic Mr. Fox written by Roald Dahl, Clooney also plays a reflective yet ambitious family man ( or fox ) who has gone back to his old habit of raiding chicken coops, much to his wife's chagrin. Endangering his family and all the wild life of the forest he has to make it up them for his lapse into selfishness - especially his son who he has failed to connect with. Although seemingly for kids - this movie has some very grown up issues it deals with.
In both films, good date movies, Clooney shows his mastery of delivery and both fast and slow dry wit. In the audience, every woman loves him and every man wants to be him. Like a good martini or a strong bottle fermented apple cider - both his looks and his acting can charm the rust off an old bucket. - Ecomanta

Why we should re-elect Harper, Opinion Jan. 7
Richard Gwyn says it makes sense to re-elect Harper, as tough times require a tough leader, even if he is a son-of-a-bitch.
Sorry but I must disagree. Let's not confuse strength with leadership. I don't care how strong he is; if he's wrong, he can ruin this country. And Harper is wrong on so many counts.
Harper says economic problems are caused by government spending, but he's wrong. Economic problems are caused by concentration of wealth, and Conservative policies are making that problem worse.
Harper cuts scientific programs because they cost $400,000, while spending $20 million on his own personal security, to protect him from Canadians like us.
Harper cuts pensions for old people who have worked hard all their lives, while doubling military and security spending, which does nothing useful.
Harper brags about helping the economy, while signing trade treaties that benefit multinational companies, and which kill local industries.
Harper cuts Statistics Canada budgets, so people won't know what's going on, while limiting communication and freedom of information.
Harper turns a blind eye to climate change, while the rest of the country is freezing in the dark. He has a royalist "Let them eat cake" attitude in response to people's problems.
If Richard Gwyn wants to live in a tightly controlled society, that spends $ billions spying on its citizens, instead of helping them, he's welcome to his opinion, but I for one will be voting against King Stephen.
Max Moore, Toronto
Richard Gwyn's portrait of Stephen Harper as a man so disliked that he will be able to hurt us for our own good (i.e. through fiscal belt tightening) simply won't fly. Were it not for relentless pressure from the media, Harper would have blown the wad on 65 costly-to-run F-35s.
He keeps Tony "Gazebo" Clement at Treasury, a man who spent like a drunkard at the G8, on his own riding. We can either spend more on social programs, i.e. Kelowna or daycare, or just keep subsidizing the petroleum industry and the gun lobby and keep incarcerating too many of our people, even as the Americans are waking up to how senseless and ineffective such a policy is.
Tom Mulcair also knows how to tolerate being criticized or even disliked, as much as Harper does. As for Justin Trudeau, people in all parties find him likable, an asset in consensus-building, and something that will be necessary, because the next government of Canada will be a minority government.
Ron Charach, Toronto
I have observed that the political biases of the Star are manifest in tendency to vilify Mr. Harper (to my delight) and celebrate Justin "Bieber" Trudeau. Meanwhile, Thomas Mulcair is often passed over or, if mentioned in more than a single paragraph, accompanied by a rather unpleasant photo.
It is annoying to read news and opinion that implies that our only choice is between a Mr. Trudeau, a "caring, sharing charmer," and the prime minister, a ruthless, hyperpartisan "son-of-a-bitch."
What about the current Leader of Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition? What's wrong with Thomas Mulcair — a caring, sharing son-of-a-bitch.
Howard A. Doughty, Richmond Hill
The National Post reported the Richard Gwyn column extolling the virtues of our Prime Minister. Astonished by your giving space to a non-Liberal idea, I credit the Star with the greatest effort at politically balanced reporting in decades.
Thank you for printing Gwyn's proposal to keep Prime Minister Harper in power. Now let's have a proposal for changing the Ontario government as soon as possible — and not to the NDP tax-and-spend party.
Charles Hooker, East Garafraxa
If the only reason you can put forward to re-elect Harper is that he lay off more people and penny pinch important initiatives — re: the environment, native people, youth employment, human rights and open information to name only a few — I suspect you are either joking or are really past being taken seriously.
Mary E. Church, Toronto
The same argument can be applied to Mayor Rob Ford and PC leader Tim Hudak. Who better to carry out the nasty reforms and belt-tightening Toronto/Ontario now needs than someone everyone loves to hate? In any case, these elections battles will centre around conviction politics versus consensus politics.
Ricardo Di Cecca, Burlington
Richard Gwyn indeed makes a cogent case for keeping "someone who knows what he's doing" and "gets the job done," despite attempting to pointlessly endear themselves to the public.
Though the latter point is much contrary to Gwyn's thinking that "today, success in politics depends on an ability to persuade voters that you really do, really and truly, Feel their Pain," we need look no further than our neighbours to the south to find a prime example of a political leader — a president no less — who had both excelled at talking to the public, and proven incapable of doing as he says (the Obamacare for the public), leading a great nation into a widely recognized financial disaster.
Here in Ontario, we had likewise long been saddled with a now disgraced premier who talked repeatedly about making difficult decisions for us (notably about forcing wind turbines on the landscape and cancelling gas plants at horrendous costs) and "getting the big things right," yet ending a political career by slinking away in the night, leaving an economic mess for others to clean up.
This reader will gladly leave Canada's helm in Mr. Harper's and Flaherty's steadfast hands, rather than gamble on his detractors who want to "give it a shot."
R. Michaels, Burlington
The Prime Minister of Canada can go to prison and rot if he wants to obstruct justice and delay a speedy public jury trial. Nobody is above the law. Can you please help put Steve Harper in his place?
Karen Yung, Toronto
When consumers cannot spend because they are too heavily indebted, when a trade deficit draws money out of our economy, and when cash-flush corporations will not invest here because of lack of demand, there is only one source left to kick start the economy: bigger government budget deficits.
Richard Gwyn wants more "nasty reforms and belt-tightening" but his solution will push the economy into a downward spiral and yield the same results as when applied overseas in Greece.
With every tightening and nastiness, expect higher unemployment, increased suicides, deeper political divisions, and ultimately rioting in the streets.
Larry Kazdan, Vancouver
Canada's budget surplus could exceed forecast, Flaherty says, Jan. 6
This is great news, especially at a time when bad tidings abound and the economy continues to unravel on a global scale. However, is it enough to savour the good news or do we have an obligation to do explore how best we can proceed to ensure our prosperity in the new year?
Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said the federal budget surplus could be bigger than predicted in 2015 and a recent report from the PBO estimated the government could achieve a surplus of $4.6 billion by next year.
The Star editor has aptly declared 2014 The Year of the Idea. If we are to prosper and grow, it is critical to float ideas and dream big in order to ensure our future success as a nation.
While balancing the books is a welcome sign of federal fiscal restraint we also need to fuel the economy by investing in much needed infrastructure and transportation enhancements while improving the future prospects for Canadians via job growth and higher education.
The upcoming federal elections will enable our political parties to showcase their talents in ensuring that Canada continues to prosper on the world stage. We can do it — but each of us must first do our best going forward to ensure overall success.
Rudy Fernandes, Mississauga
Rebuilding trust after a year of scandal, Editorial Jan. 6
Your editorial is right that politicians need to make a "commitment to govern better" as a step toward rebuilding the trust of voters. However, this alone will not be enough because for 20 years surveys have showed clearly that a large majority of Canadian voters want changes to require everyone in politics to act honestly, openly, ethically, representatively and to prevent waste.
Key, workable changes have been proposed in bills introduced by a few democratic politicians, or set out in detail in reports by groups like ours.
All that is needed is for legislatures to listen to voters (finally) and make these proposals the law of the land, and then voters will have a good reason to trust governments again.
Duff Conacher, founding board member of Democracy Watch, Ottawa
At Cowichan Valley, B.C.'s Brentwood College on Wednesday afternoon, I sat and watched the people gathering and waiting, for almost an hour, in a softly falling mist, waiting to be admitted to the hall where they would hear Stephen Harper speak. Hundreds of them, nicely in line, nicely dressed, nicely behaved.
All these many people, nicely willing, apparently, but perhaps naively, to pretend, or perhaps to hope, that the ills of our lives on Earth were addressed best by principles of business: profits, prosperity, stability, security. It all would seem so nice, to have it continue in that way: so clean, decent, and civil. Such a pleasant facade.
I wouldn't suppose that many of the gathered faithful there were thinking about less pleasant conditions created by businesses and industries that support their nicely cocooned middle class wealth and comfort and security.
But, I do suppose that far from their thoughts, as they waited for their leader to preach the gospel of continuing profits, prosperity, stability and security, were the toxic wastes destroying the living watersheds of Northern Alberta and threatening pristine mountain valleys, the Pacific Coast and Ocean waters.
Nor, I suppose, were they thinking of collapsing glaciers and polar ice sheets, the scores of living creatures extinct each month, our dying oceans, our dying forests; and so: Humanity on a brink of devastation, possibly extinction, along with myriad other creatures of the delicate natural balances upon which vitally depends our living, destroyed by our avarice, our ascendant wit, and our abysmal lack of wisdom.
To those gathered faithful, amidst the grand design of accumulated wealth of Brentwood, amidst their manufactured culture of endless growth and consumption, perhaps it never occurred that their cumulative effort toward their material salvation, in fact, would be the cause of the demise impending upon us all.
When humanity thus by its own hand has been silenced, it will not matter, for there will be no one left to care. O, but what a sadness now, as we might feel, for all that thus is to be lost.
How best can we help one another?
John Mowat Steven, Cowichan Valley, B.C.
Oilsands policies to face tough tests throughout 2014, Jan. 7
Canada is a federation. Metaphorically speaking, the provinces and territories are "siblings" and Ottawa is our "parent." By betting so heavily on the oilsands, as well as not externalizing the true cost of carbon pollution, the federal cabinet is behaving like a bad parent by favouring "western issues" at the national level.
The Prime Minister and the Privy Council should not be picking winners in the energy industry. A free market solution, that would free Ottawa from picking favourites, while at the same time not burden taxpayers and protect the climate at the same time, is a revenue neutral carbon tax such as Carbon Fee and Dividend.
Carbon Fee and Dividend is an upstream tax and is levied at the well head, or mine where fossil fuels are produced or point of entry into our economy via imports. It is a non-partisan policy, created by citizens for citizens. MP Bruce Hyer asked our Environment Minister to consider Carbon Fee and Dividend during Question Period in the House of Commons on Nov. 19, 2013.
Conservatives have delayed introduction of regulatory greenhouse gas emission policies for the oil and gas sector. Now that Hyer has proposed the question, perhaps the Conservatives should consider this free market solution, Carbon Fee and Dividend, instead of expensive and complicated regulatory mechanisms.
Cathy Orlando, National Manager, Citizens Climate Lobby, Sudbury
Democracy 'slipping away, ' Green leader fears, Jan. 1
Elizabeth May warns that "we are on a slippery slope to the loss of our democracy." And your article quotes Canada's most eminent political scientist, Peter Russell, stating that a Harper majority is "an indication that parliamentary crime pays."
In preparation for the next election, Canadians who value democracy need to devote all their energies to reversing the frightening cascade of anti-democratic measures which Elizabeth May, Joe Clark and so many others have catalogued.
The Harper administration's record on climate change is nothing less than a crime against future generations and a denial of the democratic rights of citizens.
For Our Grandchildren is just one of many organizations fighting to reclaim for future generations the freedoms we senior citizens have known and expect — and our voices are getting louder.
Anthony Ketchum, Toronto
What an amazing article by Susan Delacourt on the efforts of Canada's "Hardest Working MP." Which other Member of Parliament used PM Harper's latest tactic to get away from inconvenient opposition attacks by shutting down Parliament to not just tour their constituency but hold town house meetings from coast to coast of this vast country to tell voters of the sorry state of Canada's democratic system.
Who else of the so called independents — parties with fewer than 12 members recently so designated by the ruling party — would make the terrific effort to go from committee to committee to try and institute amendments into pending legislation instead of just sit back in resignation? Who else would challenge the speaker about obvious unfair rulings on practices of the party in power?
With her distinguished career in law rewarded by the Order of Canada she has long-standing involvement in parliamentary practice and constitutional knowledge to put to use.
Why wouldn't Canadian voters demand from their own MPs to strive to emulate this hardest working colleague to save us all from true democracy slipping away under the present government brought in as majority party with only 39.6 per cent of the popular vote in 2011??
Thank you for sharing this with your readers.
Ziggy Kleinau, Binbrook
If true, how much is the fault of Ms. May. Her monumental ego stands in the way of joining one of the other parties and pushing her agenda through them. Democracy is the art of compromise and as long as the Green Party helps to allow 30 to 35 per cent of the population determine the government, the problem will persist.
Maybe Ms May is pure: "If absolute power corrupts absolutely, does absolute powerlessness make you pure?
David Vallance, Toronto
Protest gets too close for PM's comfort, Jan. 7
Seeing Harper sitting on that stage smiling and oblivious to what was briefly going on behind him, reminded me of George W. Bush receiving news of 9/11. Harper, like Bush, looks like he does not know what goes on. Is he, too, being pushed along by Big Corporate, oil in this case? Free trade gives them that power!
Also, why does he take $20 million from taxpayers for his protection? Who values him that much?
Helga Weick, Toronto
I guess you could say that the Prime Minister had unprotected press.
Terry Toll, Campbell's Bay, Que.

Chris Dziadul looks at a significant day for CEE
Two unrelated though highly significant developments will take place today (August 31) in Central and East Europe (CEE). In the Czech Republic, the transition to digital broadcasting will finally get under way when Domazlice near the German border becomes the first part of the country to switch off its analogue transmitters. Meanwhile in neighbouring Poland, TVN will become the first broadcaster – not just in the country, but the region as a whole – to begin transmitting in HD.
The European digital switchover target of 2012 increasingly appears to be more of a guideline than something set in stone. While The Netherlands and Luxembourg have already made the move and Finland and Sweden will soon follow, other countries (such as Romania, for instance) have barely taken the first steps. Poland, though by no means a laggard in other areas, has already put its own switch off date back to 2014.
For the Czech Republic, the introduction of digital terrestrial services has been something of a saga punctuated by an unwelcome and still unresolved dispute over the award of digital TV licences. However, unlike most other countries in the region, with perhaps the exception of Estonia and Lithuania, it has made real progress. Two DTT multiplexes are up and running, with viewers in Prague, Brno, Ostrava and of course Domazlice offered what will soon hopefully be a growing number of channels.
TV Nova, it has to be said, has played an important role in the first stages of the transition process despite its dispute with the regulators over digital licences. Besides financing an information campaign, it has contributed CZK1.5 million (€54,243) towards the cost of set-top boxes.
Poland, on the other hand, appears to have taken on the role of regional prime mover in the introduction of HD services. The DTH platform n was the first operation in CEE to offer programming in the format when it made its debut a year ago, and now its sister service, the national commercial broadcaster TVN, is itself starting HD transmissions. Polsat and TVP are soon likely to follow, and by this time next year we can confidently expect most of the country's leading terrestrial stations, cable operators, DTH services and IPTV platforms to be offering at least some of their programming in HD.
Summer certainly seems to ending on a high note, at least in the Czech Republic and Poland.

A district attorney prosecutes cases on behalf of the public. District attorneys manage the prosecutor's office and play a central role in investigating charges, deciding whether to charge someone with a crime, offering plea bargains, and litigating appeals. They also advise parole boards on inmate requests for early release.

Today I am looking at the dividend prospects of two FTSE 100 heavyweights.
Cash machine
Fresh concerns over global banking system have dented investor appetite for Lloyds(LSE: LLOY) in recent weeks, the bank's share value receding following a healthy spurt higher in February.
While Lloyds may not carry the considerable exposure to emerging regions or commodity markets like Santander, HSBC or Standard Chartered, the bank is not fraught with its own challenges for the months and years ahead.
Lloyds' severe asset shedding in the wake of the last recession makes it solely dependent on the health of the UK economy, prompting investors to fret over signs of a cooling domestic output and of course the potential impact of a 'leave' vote in June's EU referendum.
Equally worrying for Lloyds is a likely acceleration in PPI-related claims ahead of a touted 2018 deadline. The bank has already stashed away £16bn to cover the costs of the scandal, making it far and away the banking segment's worst culprit.
However, I believe the stock remains a hot selection for those seeking exceptional dividend flows from this year onwards. It is certainly true that Lloyds' sole focus on the British high street is unlikely to generate exceptional revenues, and consequently there's little prospect of exceptional earnings. But the firm's less-risky operations provide security for those seeking reliable dividend expansion.
And while the final cost of previous misconduct is yet to be determined, I believe the fruits of Lloyds' Simplification restructuring scheme should help to offset the possibility of further colossal penalties. Indeed, the bank's CET1 ratio rose to a healthy 13.9% last year -- excluding dividends -- in spite of further PPI-related provisions.
In light of these factors, the City expects Lloyds to raise the dividend from 2.25p per share in 2015 to 4.3p this year, and again 5.2p in 2017. These figures generate exceptional yields of 6.4% and 7.6% respectively.
Dividends set to surge
I also reckon investors seeking reliable dividend growth year after year could do much worse than pick electricity giant National Grid(LSE: NG).
That's not to say the company has not has been a 'perfect' income stock in recent years. National Grid was forced to cut the dividend in 2012 due to the colossal sums needed to keep the electricity network up and running. Still, I believe the essential nature of electricity demand provides National Grid with earnings visibility that most other companies can only dream of.
Indeed, many of Britain's blue-chip stocks, from banks and miners through to engineers and oil producers, have been forced to 'bin' their progressive dividend policies in recent times amid rising revenues turbulence. And this trend that is expected to claim more victims in the months ahead as the global economy toils.
Sure, projected earnings growth at National Grid may not be enough to raise the pulse -- the bottom line is expected to edge just 2% and 1% higher in the years to March 2017 and 2018 respectively. But the power play's defensive operations makes it the ultimate 'buy and forget' stock, in my opinion.
The City expects National Grid to raise a projected dividend of 43.8p per share for fiscal 2016 to 44.8p in the current period, yielding a splendid 4.6%. And the yield moves to 4.7% for 2018 thanks to a predicted 4.7%.
But National Grid and Lloyds are not the only dividend darlings currently available to investors.
Indeed, this special Fool report -- written by The Motley Fool's crack team of analysts -- identifies what I believe is one of the best income stocks money can buy.

This essay echoes a familiar concern - but one that most of us simply shrug our shoulders at, "What can you do?"
All new technologies, when widely adopted, constitute a kind of giant cultural / psychological experiment. Books, radio, television, PCs, smart phones and now wearables... each technology has its own imperatives and impacts on our humanity. Benign? I have a hard time thinking this is going to end well as we train our children for a post-literate world.
Here is an excerpt from the essay in question - from Jason Boog at Reluctant Habits:
On November 27, 1960, only a few months after Green Eggs and Ham was published, Dr. Seuss called for a movement more modest than the Ham and Eggs pension drive. Seuss argued that "children's reading and children's thinking are the rock bottom base upon which this country will rise. Or not rise." He was deeply concerned about the increasing junk being published under the guise of juvenile fiction and he rightly pointed out how children were "eagerly welcoming the good writers who talk, not down to them as kiddies, but talk to them clearly and honestly as equals." (In the same manifesto, the good Theodore Geisel also promulgated the fanciful claim that he was "mayor of La Jolla," but this hardly detracts from his salient points.)
Eight years before this, Seuss had written another essay on how people laughed less as they grew older, with the fun "getting hemmed in by a world of regulations." Yet even Seuss's imagination could not have foreseen our world of digital devices, with the horrifying 2011 video of a one-year-old baby flipping through a physical magazine, her hand squeezing on fixed text and hoping to push it across a malleable vortex, and with her little fingers, yearning for any toy, trying to flip a photo because she believes that the page is a tablet. The parent, with the toxic cruise control bravado of a privileged Google Bus commuter who refuses to see the world beyond his soy vanilla latte and gluten-free muffin, offers the smug, self-congratulatory, and ire-inducing caption, "For my 1 year old daughter, a magazine is an iPad that does not work. It will remain so for her whole life. Steve Jobs has coded a part of her OS."
With tablets and smartphones increasingly replacing television as the screen-based babysitter of choice for the overtaxed parent, we have very little knowledge on what this will mean for the next generation of readers and thinkers. With Common Core literary standards introducing preposterously dogmatic regulations ("Retell stories, including key details, and demonstrate understanding of their central message or lesson" reads one such farcical instruction) into classrooms with the same blindly faithful haste as the digital devices, any reliable advocate for imagination and salutary tomfoolery is left to wonder if we are preparing a generation that will surrender its wonder and humor earlier, without the pull of palpable paper to trigger some potential to raise this broken nation.

The Bigg Boss House Interiors - Season 9 'Double Trouble'By Smitha Jose
Interior Design Ideas & Tips Dated: Feb. 5, 2016 Tweet 1 Comment(s)
When its about entertainment in India, nothing can beat the masaledaar episodes cooked in Bigg Boss. And this time it just got bigger and better (at least for the audience). The set along with all time favorite host Salman Khan, was all ready to take the contestants for an adventurous ride through the well thought set designs and of course the usual drama that unfolded with each episode.
The set this time, as you all might have noticed was different in many ways from the rest of the seasons'. With double trouble as the theme this season, we could not have imagined it any better. The interiors were a splash of vibrant colours, going Mediterrenean this time- from bright velvety blue and pink to majestic hues of gold and red.
Located in one of the tourist hot spots, Lonavala, the exteriors blended well with the scene outside. The contestants received a warm welcome to the house which had a sparkling swimming pool right in front of the entrance that bloomed with pretty floral brocade. This well pleasing welcome look was definitely to double the haunting surprises that awaited them inside.
The set left no single chance of doubling the trouble. Set designer, Omung Kumar took four whole months in designing this house, trying to keep it as loud as possible. The vibrant, loud colors like pitch velvety blue and pink for the sofas and beds were ways to put the contestants in psychological pressure to bring out their true emotions.
The rooms literally were stuffed either with the flashy colors or the décor arrangement.
The living room, for instance had two large curved sofas in bright blue facing each other, with cushions that had almost all the colors in a rainbow. The TV was mounted on a wall that was packed with cut outs of luggage trunks. The already filled living room with walls done in bright, flashy colors, was adorned with large mirrors that doubled the 'uneasy' effect.
Washroom, however , looked more royal and pretty with a timeless color combination of red and golden. Majestic red walls dotted with ethnic patterns formed the backdrop for the wash counter with elegant single mirror laced with pretty yellow frames. Wooden floorings coupled with sinhasan seats might have given the contestants, an ambience they could compare with the royal palaces'. Lighting was yet another important factor that helped to accentuate the overall look of the room.
Bedrooms too served the concept of doubling the trouble (or was it doubling the fun?). A large single bedroom was designed that had 7 beds in pair, one of each was a bit raised than the other. The bed linens again, were in rich, vibrant hues, which pleased some and disgusted others. The main attraction was however, the walls behind the bed that was upholstered with plush cushions in rich, satin fabric.
Dining area
Twin chairs, again, not in the usual woody or steel shade, but in funky colors, were set around the dining table to create a warm and light environment over the dinner. While the rest of the space was brimming with pretty colours and patterns, the floor was kept simple with woody finish that had white timeless Indian pattern all over.
Use of different sources and layers of light was another distinctive feature of this season's set with chandeliers, pedant lights, rustic lantern lights and candles dotting the entire interiors, making it lively and glossy.
Roof top lounge
It was not only the trouble that got doubled. A surprise roof top lounge gorgeously set on wooden flooring, too had seats in doubles that sat on a thin green carpet giving a beautiful contrast to the wooden surrounding. This open air lounge would definitely have been one of the things that the contestants loved the most.
Salman's chalet
Talking about Bigg Boss and not mentioning the real star? This can't happen. Salman, as usual, might have been one of the biggest reasons why we all were glued to the show.
Salman's chalet too, this time saw some drastic changes as there was no gym inside the room for the superstar was trying to put on some extra fat for his next action packed movie –Sultan, which features Salman as a hard core wrestler in the making.
The room was themed to have a superhero look considering Salman's popularity among the public. The accent wall had a larger than life picture of dabang hero in one of his superhero avatars as seen in the movie 'kick'. The furniture was kept classy with an extraordinarily long sofa as the host was to have frequent meetings with the production team.

Hello and thanks for checking us out! This group is for people (single/married/dating/etc) in their 30's to 60's who are interested in participating regularly in activities. Please stay within our age range. Our events will be in the Twin Cities area and surrounding suburbs. My hope is that we all attend events consistently giving us a chance to develop friendships. A big part of what will make this group successful is spreading leadership across activities and participating monthly in activities. Please attend at least one event every 3 months, if we notice you're not attending events, we'll contact you to see if you still want to be part of the group. If you have an idea for an event, please consider hosting an event. We all have different interests and I'm sure if there's something you want to do, there will be someone else who wants to do it as well.
A few additional rules that must be followed: 1. 24 hour cancelation policy to events. If you cannot attend events, you need to let the host know PRIOR to 24 hours. If you do not, we may mark you as a no show. I understand people get sick and have emergencies. Three no shows means an automatic termination of membership.
2. There is absolutely NO smoking, drugs or weapons of any kind at any meetup event. This means immediate termination of membership. Please don't bring alcohol to events unless the event host says it's okay and if you drink, remember to drink responsibly. You are responsible for your own behavior, if you find you've had too much alcohol at an alcohol permitting event, please be responsible and call for a cab. Out and About leadership is not responsible for any accidents as a result of your behavior at events. *If you either drink (when not permitted) or smoke at an event or come to an event drunk or high, you will be terminated from our group.*
3. Come out to events regularly to get to know us better. While the requirement is at least 1x every 3 months, it's much better to maintain friendships if we can see you more often. :)
4. Be respectful of others in the group, everyone is unique and we need to accept people as they are.

Festa dei setta pesci, the Feast of the Seven Fishes is an Italian-American traditional meal with roots in Southern Italy. This festival of lovingly prepared dishes is presented in a myriad of variations in homes on Christmas Eve. While the menu can vary from family to family, the core of the meal is consistent: seven (or more) seafood dishes brimming with the flavors of rich tradition served in present-day style.
Renaissance men and brothers, Adam and Andrew Erace, are no strangers to the joys of the Feast of the Seven Fishes. Growing up with parents Francine "Frannie" and Michael, Sunday family dinners were happily mandatory, making the Christmas Eve gathering a natural extension of those weekly meals. Although far more complicated, the intent of gathering kindred spirits to share a meal, remains the same. "The reason we go through the trouble to cook such a complicated meal is twofold," says Andrew, "first, there is no other night like Christmas Eve for Italian-Americans. I feel it is the holiday that connects us most with our heritage. The second reason is that it brings all of our family and friends together."
Although the Erace family Christmas Eve feast is anything but simple, Frannie's thoughts on the day-to-day family meal are straightforward: "You don't have to have a lavish dinner to sit down together as a family." When her mother (Adam and Andrew's grandmother) used to host the meal, Frannie's side of the family would make up the entire guest list. But, since Frannie and Michael took over as hosts, guests come from both sides of the family and beyond to enjoy the festivities. "We're drinking Meletti Anisette and our great aunt loves for us to make her scotch cocktails," says Adam. "We host for roughly 30 people," Andrew adds. "Having all of those people under one roof, combined with the abundance of food, makes for a truly special night."
The ritual of serving familiar dishes on the holiday table, such as Frannie's beloved Crabs and Macaroni, is comforting and evokes intimate memories. "It is something that we have down the shore in the summertime and on Christmas Eve," says Adam. "Limiting the dish to those two occasions keeps it really special." The Eraces keep the menu fresh by adding new recipes into the mix. Adam's Roasted Oysters has become a crowd favorite. "The oyster recipe is something I created one year when I was on a quest to do something not so traditional," he says. Complemented by a lush and fragrant compound butter, the oysters are a welcome addition to a table marked by pasta dishes and fried fish.
Within the last decade, Adam and Andrew took a keen interest in how local, organic, and gourmet provisions were being offered (or not offered) to their South Philly neighbors. Armed with interest in real estate rejuvenation, a sincere passion for good food and inspiration to make a change, the Eraces established Green Aisle Grocery in 2009. Green Aisle's now trio of locations in Philadelphia — East Passyunk, Graduate Hospital and Fishtown — cater to foodies who want sustainable, boutique, small-batch brands that are meticulously sourced by the Eraces themselves. In addition to supplying the brands of various vendors, Green Aisle also shelves Adam and Andrew's own line of bespoke jams, chutneys, pickles, preserves, marmalades, and even non-food items such as soaps and room sprays. Green Aisle's goal? "To make really good, local food available to people in our neighborhood. We like to eat a certain way and want to replicate that with what's on the shelves," says Adam.
Call it compatibility in the business world, but it's la famiglia at home. The Eraces' Feast of the Seven Fishes is an extension of the deeply-woven ancestral thread of togetherness. "By continuing the Feast of the Seven Fishes, we are helping to keep something very Italian alive, that our grandparents, great-grandparents and great-great grandparents have carried through the generations," says Andrew. "We have modernized it a bit, but the roots are still in place: family, celebration and a ridiculous amount of food."

The other day while she was returning home from school, my daughter forget her backpack in the subway train. Gone were her wallet with bank and credit cards, her laptop and other electronics, the course notes she needed for her final exams next week, as well as her medicine injector.
Her upside-down world was saved by a phone call from a Good Samaritan who found the bag while searching the train for his wife's bag lost earlier.
The kind act from the gentleman, Nicolas, from Thorncliffe Park Drive, renewed our faith in humanity. Incidentally Nicolas also found his wife's bag. No good deed goes unrewarded.

"Denise" . . . Not
All the years of filling out paperwork, when it came to the middle name, I had nothing. At school each year, no middle name. Teachers didn't question it, but the other students did. It left me feeling awkward, left out, lacking somehow.
Sometime around middle school (junior high, back in those days) I decided to just give myself a middle name. My dad's name is Dennis, so I chose Denise (plus, I'd seen an after school special where the girl's name was Dennie). For a couple of years all my paperwork had "Denise" in that previously vacant middle name slot.
But it felt fake. Manufactured. Everybody around me knew I'd just made it up.
Eventually I dropped it, and went back to just my two names. But I clearly remember the first form I filled out after I got married. I filled in that legitimate middle name with glee.

Great story. And congrats on that middle name! I say I have 4 names. Legally and on forms, my middle name s my maiden name. But I won't entirely let go of my Elizabeth!ReplyDelete
I am named after my mother's two sisters, Sandra and Diane. Then Grease came out in theaters. I've lived my entire life with strangers singing to me about my virginity because they think they are being clever and in 38 years, I would have never have heard that one before. I'm Sandra D...please stop lookin at me.ReplyDeleteReplies
Well bless your heart. But that is a hilarious story!Delete
My husband's grandfather didn't have a middle name...but at some point he gave himself one too :)ReplyDelete
Officially, I dropped my maiden name when I got married. But I sometimes get mail addressed to me by all 4 names, and my work license is actually in my 4 names.


text: Kendra had no idea how she got here, but when she opened her eyes, she found herself laying on a kitchen floor. The first thing she noticed, she was tied up with rope. Then she realized she was gagged too. She struggles to get loose, but she was tied tight. Somehow, she was able to reach up and remove the gag. Then she noticed what had been stuffed in her mouth. The panties she had put on earlier in the day. "OMG!" she thought. If her panties had been stuffed in her mouth, what was she wearing now. She actually knew the answer, she could feel cold air going up her dress. When she cries out for help, a man walked in. She recognized him as a person she met earlier. Remembering she was gagged with her panties she asked, "Did you fuck me!" As the man lifted, he told that he had not, Yet!. Then he re-stuffed her mouth and this time he used tape to secure the wadded up larger pair of panties. Then he re-tied Kendra with her hand tied behind her back. Using more rope, the man tied Kendra tight and secure. Finally the man laid Kendra on the floor and hogtied her. he also pulled her boobs out of her dress and then lifted the hem of the dress to expose her hairy bush.

Any man who does not accept the conditions of life sells his soul.
Last night I sat around a table with all my friends a smoke in one hand and a pint of beer in my other hand, Everyone was laughing and having a good time. INcluding myself.
For once I was it filling like a outcast or like some diseased animal. I was feeling like part of the group.
Kara my best friend's brother came out and he just broke up with his girlfriend and he was on the prowl for some pussy that night. He made a Joke to Kara that she could pick any women and he would hit on her.
Kara took great fun in this and looked around she had a big smile on her face and pointed to a women at the end of the bar...
"how about that one" she said.
We all looked and most People laughed, she was older maybe in her 40's her eyebrows were painted on and you could tell she had fake teeth, A friend laughed and said the women was a crack addict one of the biggest in this small town.
Kenny Kara's brother went up to her and started talking. The women looked shocked and then you could see her falling . I felt bad and Kara snickered thinking it was the funniest thing ever.
Threw out the Night comments were made about this new couple. Kara forced her brother to buy the women a shot and her one as well. The women you could tell was it use to getting this kind of attention and she was loving it.
When it was time to leave Kara yelled for her brother that we had to go. He said that he would meet us outside. Of course her and I had to say bye to everyone so Kenny got outside first. The women was with him.
Kara froze, and then said " who's coming with us"
KEnny smiled and said me and my friend
" Umm no Kenny no one in my car you know that" Kara said very bitchy. The women turned on her heel and headed away. Kenny ran after her and Kara was yelling her brother's name and saying she was leaving with out. He walked away with this women.
Kara just stood there stunned .. " I can't believe he went home with her" she kept calling him and they had some heated words.
by this time I was getting cold shivering and standing outside . Kara's going on and on about crack whores and her brother is stupid and it was just a Joke ....blah blah blah.
At that moment I came to the thought that, Kara my bff I love her dearly will never be anything but a townie. A local. She will always come to the same bar sit in the same seat. And laugh at the drunks. This is her life .... this is this town these People.. and they love her . There's no challenge here ,
She has everyone fooled that she's just this innocent person... Kara I do love her but I just realize what she's made of... and I don't like it

By Leonardo Maugeri
Oil is the main very important source of our time. since it is so vital, misperceptions concerning the black gold abound. Leonardo Maugeri clears the cobwebs through describing the colourful historical past of oil, and explaining the basics of oil creation. He gives you a different, interesting, and debatable point of view at the industry―as in simple terms an insider may. The background of the oil marketplace has been marked, for the reason that its inception, by means of a succession of booms and busts, each resulting in an analogous mental climax and incorrect political judgements. in one new release, we have skilled the power problem of 1973; the dramatic oil countershock of 1986; the oil cave in of 1998-99 that gave upward push to the belief of oil as simply one other commodity; and the pointy fee raises following storm Katrina's devastation within the Gulf of Mexico. this day, we're experiencing an international oil increase that, mockingly, turns out to bring in a depressing period of shortage exacerbated through becoming intake and the chance from Islamic terrorism within the oil-rich center East.
Maugeri argues that the pessimists are incorrect. within the moment a part of his ebook, he debunks the most myths surrounding oil in our instances, addressing even if we're certainly operating out of oil, and the genuine impression of Islamic radicalism on oil-rich areas. through translating some of the technical techniques of oil productions into phrases the typical reader can simply snatch, Maugeri solutions our questions. eventually, he concludes that the wolf isn't really on the door. we face neither an issue of oil shortage, nor an upcoming oil blackmail by way of forces adverse to the West. in simple terms undesirable political judgements pushed through a distorted view of present difficulties (and who's guilty for them) can doom us to a dark oil future.

Having received this semi-colonial energy, London prolonged to its Arab protectorates the so-called British Nationality Clause, that required any corporation working in any British colony to be registered in nice Britain and controlled by means of British matters. in addition, whereas engaged in its nation-building attempt in Iraq, London additionally drew the strains that mark the present frontiers of the full quarter. the fellow who took on accountability for that job was once Percy Cox, an legit who performed a distinct position in shaping today's heart japanese obstacles. After having been the British excessive Commissioner in Muscat and in Persia, Cox used to be appointed as nice Britain's best legitimate in Mesopotamia, the place he installed position the rules of the hot Iraqi kingdom whereas masterminding the political structure of the complete area. In 1922 it fell to him to track the lasting borders of the Arab states within the Persian Gulf in the course of a gathering of neighborhood dignitaries known as to debate the topic. pissed off and troubled through their failure to arrive contract, Cox picked up a purple pencil and drew a few traces on a map, which used to be finally proven to, and authorized by way of, these in attendance. three less than the forceful assistance of Percy Cox, the complete sector remained nearly a personal enterprise safeguard of significant Britain, regardless of the conflict with the USA at the way forward for Mesopotamia.

Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
Theology is a course requirement at Notre Dame but despite that, this foundations course proved very intriguing and spiritually stimulating. Classmates who were not of the Catholic religion were very involved in discussion and intrigued in the teachings. Although being a Catholic myself, I was never very active in my church back home but I found the lectures and readings very interesting and eye-opening to stories I heard while growing up about the Bible.
Course highlights:
The course was divided into different sections mostly depicting sections of the Old Testament and New Testament from the bible. We started learning about the two different origin stories in the bible, which I had no idea were two completely different stories. and then moved on through to the relationship or covenant between YHWH and Israel. My favorite part of the course was mostly in the New Testament discussions, more specifically about Jesus. I enjoyed learning through interesting readings that Jesus's famous teachings in the Sermon on the Mount were considered somewhat revolutionary and not mainstream to what people at the time considered moral doings. Throughout the course I gained a basic yet somewhat in-depth understanding of the Bible story and its historical contexts which is helpful for further spiritual study in the future.
Hours per week:
3-5 hours
Advice for students:
For students coming into this course I would definitely have an open-mind to the subject. Because it is a requirement at this school I would avoid being so negative and quick to disparaging it because it can be quite the opposite. Professor Lantigua although assigns reading for every class, does not require much work other than four unit reflections, two papers, and two unit exams. As recommended with every discussion-heavy course, do the readings for every class. It is very important as their information and insights will be required in your papers and it is beneficial in gaining an overall understanding and education of the teachings of the class. Class participation in discussion is also a recommendation as it shows and interest in the subject, something the Professor will take note of.

Here's a must-view short film that is not only beautiful to watch, but offers a message too important to miss.
Muddy Puddles and Painted Sunsets from Marty McNicol on Vimeo.
This film speaks the truth about suffocating our children's imaginations, limiting their potential and seriously stunting their development if they are denied the opportunity to play outdoors.
There's nothing wrong with screens – they are an essential tool in this 21st Century. But they are just that – a tool – not a crutch for bored minds or lazy parenting.
As Dr Stuart Brown, the founder for the National Institute for Play, says in his book Play – play is as essential to the development of a human being as sleep and nutrition.
Our children are falling ill to the impact of too much screen time, and playing outside is the best tonic we can give them – rain, hail or shine.
