Chargers to Help Reduce Gadget Separation Anxiety
Murphy, Kate, International Herald Tribune
The market for these mobile power sources has grown exponentially in the last two years, with more compact and more powerful options available that allow you to recharge hundreds of times.
You undoubtedly know people so smitten with their smartphones and tablets that they experience separation anxiety when asked to put them away, even if it is just long enough to get through dinner. But that is nothing compared with the angst they feel when their devices' batteries are getting low. Think tremors and rending of garments.
If you happen to be one of those people, you might consider joining a 12-step program -- or maybe just buying a backup battery for recharging on the go. The market for these mobile power sources has grown exponentially in the last two years, with more compact and more powerful options available that allow you to recharge hundreds of times. Which one is best depends on how much power you want on hand and how much weight you are willing to carry.
"Mobile chargers are becoming one of our most popular categories," said Victor Setton, the chief executive of Mobile City in New York, who bought one himself after he missed critical moments of extended play at the U.S. Open because he left the match to recharge his phone. "Everybody has had moments like that when you are watching your phone power down and it's killing you."
First, you need to determine how much standby power you need. Battery capacity is measured in milliampere hours, or mAh. The more milliampere hours a battery has, the longer it will run, somewhat like gallons of gas in a car. Most smartphone batteries have a capacity of 1,500 to 2,100 mAh, while tablet batteries are in the range of 6,000 to 11,000 mAh. To fully recharge these devices, you need an auxiliary source that meets or exceeds that capacity.
If all you want is a quick charge to give you a couple of hours until you can get to a wall socket, go with something small, inexpensive and lightweight like the 1,800 mAh Triple C Power Mate Plus ($29 in the United States), which plugs directly into an iPhone 3GS, 4 or 4S; the company, Triple C Designs, is working on one that will be compatible with an iPhone 5. The Power Mate Plus is about the size of a woman's compact, weighs 1.2 ounces, or about 34 grams, and comes in a variety of decorative designs.
The 2,200 mAh MiPow Power Tube ($39) is compatible with a wider range of mobile devices and will completely charge a smartphone. Encased in what looks like brushed aluminum, it weighs 2.5 ounces and is the size of a cigarette lighter. There are larger-capacity Power Tubes, up to the 5,500 mAh version ($99), which weighs 4.8 ounces and can charge a smartphone a couple of times or charge a tablet 50 percent.
A larger footprint and more heft will provide even more charging capacity. …

I have created a small mod yet. he's adding a new unit. but when you start the game with this mod is first splash screen download, and then gradually appears black screen. judging by the sounds-the game works and the match goes, the console and cheats work.

As of this moment, she is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT SURE that she will not be returning for her fifth and final year as a student-athlete for De La Salle University (DLSU) to compete in Season 76 of the Universities Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) women's volleyball competition.
She claims she's done with volleyball as a collegiate player. She's graduating this October and she will do On the Job Training (OJT) this summer at this brand new resort as part of her BS Marketing Management degree requirements. After that, she intends to pursue a career in either marketing or television hosting. If it were up to her, she would immerse herself into agriculture and develop her father's lush property in Zambales and turn it into a farm and livestock business. Yes, she has a lot of goals and ambitions, but none of them involve helping the Lady Spikers attain a fourth straight crown. As of this moment, she is one hundred percent sure of her decision—as of this moment.
But how can we all picture the volleyball scene without one of its main centerpieces?
Michele Gumabao is certainly one of the catalysts in bringing an up and coming spectator sport into the national—and even international (trending) consciousness. Let's say for an instant that it was really the mystique of the Ateneo-La Salle rivalry that brought droves to watch the games. The main characters were also under the microscope and you can't overlook that Michele was among those who made a huge difference. In a 2011 article I wrote for UAAP Magazine, I referred to her as the new "poster-girl" of Philippine volleyball; effectively claiming the title formerly held by ambassadresses like Ateneo's Charo Soriano, Far Eastern University's Rachel Anne Daquis, UP's Jed Montero and UST's Denise Tan. As early as then, I was already proclaiming her to be the new star of the sport. Being named UAAP Season 75's Finals MVP punctuated that.
RELATED: 'Three-mendous' DLSU sweeps Ateneo
Yet despite her status now as the new volleyball heroine, Michele was not really touted to be one when she got into it.
Michele Theresa Imperial Gumabao was born in San Mateo, California on September 2, 1992 and is the fifth of seven children of Dennis Roldan; a former actor and public servant who was indicted on kidnapping charges a few years back. The sensationalisms surrounding her celebrity father was something that she has grown to live with and actually even draw strength from.
"When I was growing up, my dad was either in showbiz or politics so I got used to it," Michele recounts. "The family became even closer through all the rough times because all the things my dad went through made us grow stronger together."
Roldan, whose real name is Mitchell Gumabao, has since found God through his days in incarceration and the entire family has converted to the Born-Again Christian faith.
"I believe our new faith actually helped me become a better volleyball player because it made me more disciplined, unlike before," Michele confesses.
Not very many people know that she is the second of her brood to play for the DLSU volleybelles. Older sister Katrina was once a member of the Lady Archers (as they were then known), but her stint on the squad lasted all of one season.
RELATED: Fille Saint Cainglet: student, volleyball player...NINJA!
"Kat (Katrina's nickname) left the team before her second season because that was the time when dad went to jail," Michele explains. "We were all affected by it, and she chose to quit."
Michele claims that she was a chubby youngster who was only introduced to volleyball in high school because of her height.
"Our training in (Holy Spirit) high school (in Quezon City) was not really that strenuous," Michele recalls. "We trained about twice a week and we were never really competitive, so no one came to recruit me unlike most of my teammates who were really scouted and brought in."
In short, Michele was a DLSU walk-on and never a highly-touted high school prodigy like Season 75 co-MVPs Abigail Maraño and Ara Galang; who as early as their junior years in high school were already on the radar of many tertiary educational establishments. She tried out for the team because her sister once played and her height—5'9"—made her quite the standout in any line.
But Michele was a dedicated party-girl as a teenager and—like her sister before her—found that being in the Ramil de Jesus system was not like her varsity days in Holy Spirit.
"I used to go out and really go home late, even during school days," Michele confides. "Because I was tall, a lot of bars thought I was over the age limit so I got to go to a lot of places despite being very young. I loved the gimiks and being in college, I did it even more.
"But I knew I had to be up early for training and this was really hard." The volleyball varsity practices at 8:30 in the morning; a definite challenge for nocturnal souls.

The 2009-2010 Lady Archers squad had a power frontline of Stephanie Mercado (Lydia de Vega's daughter), Jacqueline Alarca (eventual league MVP) and Charlene Cruz (eventual Finals MVP). Michele, due to her underdeveloped skills and the enormity of the names in front of her, couldn't crack the starting line-up. That all changed when her newfound faith set in and discipline began ruling her life as a student-athlete.
"I started going out less and if I did, I'd make sure I was home early," Michele says. "Being on the team and being with the girls was something that was very important to me, so my faith made it feel that I wasn't sacrificing but contributing."
By her sophomore year, de Jesus found just the right spot for Michele to enter the Starting Six: Utility Spiker.
"Paneng (Stephanie Mercado), Jac (Alarca) and Cha (Cruz) were fixtures in the frontline," Michele looks back. "They earned their spots. So having me in as utility didn't hamper that."
With the vaunted combination working seamlessly in the system along with the setting of eventual Rookie of the Year Mika Esperanza, and the prowess of talented libero Melissa Gohing, DLSU recaptured the title it lost to the University of Santo Tomas the season previous. Despite the eventual departure of Mercado, Alarca and Cruz, the Lady Spikers went on cop two more championships. Not only that: La Salle has only lost a grand total of three matches since Michele made her debut in the starting line-up. Many experts say it was primarily because of her leadership that the Lady Spikers became so successful.
"You can see her intensity when she's out there," one sportswriter noted. "Pag may nagwawala siyang kakampi, siya yung unang lumalapit para maayos agad yung game plan (When she has a teammate who is out of sorts, she's the first one who approaches and quells the situation to fix the game plan)."
"I just like being talkative," Michele quickly points out. "I was told one time when I wasn't in practice that it was so quiet. That's why I guess many see me as the leader because I'm the one who talks a lot and I also try to keep everyone grounded."
That's what will definitely be missed even more now that Michele has declared that she will not be returning for her fifth year.
"My goal is to graduate on time and join the workforce and I will get that done," Michele announces definitively. "Coach Ramil's system has worked all these years. Even if players leave, the team still keeps winning not because of one player, but because the system works so well. He is a great coach and DLSU will always be a great team as long as he's there."
However, Michele admits that she will miss everything.
"The girls have been my sisters for four years," she almost emotionally struggles. "Coach Ramil has been a father-figure to me all this time. He grills me when I make mistakes but also acknowledges me when I do a good job. He does that will all of us and my relationship with the team has become stronger because of all the experiences we shared together, on and off the court.
"But it's time to move on. Everyone does sooner or later."
Michele doesn't discount the fact that maybe one day she'll play again or even be involved as a non-player.
"I just want to achieve my goals in life first," she says. "But I'm never leaving the game completely. I never will."
Like most, Michele wants to settle down soon and have a family.
"I want to my parents to meet their grandkids," Michele proclaims. "I never got to spend a lot of time with my grandparents because they passed away before I could get to know them. I'll make sure that that doesn't happen in my case."
Michele is in a relationship with a former Green Archer cager and they have been a couple for just barely over a year.

Whether or not she pulls a Ray Lewis and changes her mind on her imminent retirement from collegiate eligibility, Michele Gumabao has left an indelible imprint in the landscape of women's volleyball in the archipelago. Because she has graced the sport, a new generation of Michele Gumabaos are one step closer to continuing a legacy that had very reluctant beginnings in a "chubby" high school lass who would eventually become one of the game's biggest and brightest stars.
Can La Salle win their fourth straight crown without her? That will be known next year. Can she ever be replaced as the Lady Spikers team leader? Yes, Maraño, Galang and wunderkind Mika Reyes are poised to do that already. Can anyone ever be the next Michele Gumabao? That's really tough. Michele is once-in-a-lifetime student-athlete whose mark on the game is now permanent. Her unique combination of meekness and ferocity as well as beauty and brawn will hardly ever be found in a volleyball player again. But she leaves the door open for the future of the sport; one that she has helped build as a reluctant but bonafide volleyball star.
Volleyball owes her a tremendous pat on the back. Actually, we all do.
7 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Michele Gumabao:
1. Michele shares the same birthday with Albert Spalding (1850)—yes, his name is on the basketball, actor Keanu Reeves (1964), tennis icon Jimmy Connors (1952), former world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis (1965), football quarterback turned broadcaster Terry Bradshaw (1948), Boston Celtics great Nate "Tiny" Archibald (also 1948) and the Morris Twins of the Phoenix Suns (1989)… Oh, and of course Salma Hayek (1966)—how can I forget…
2. Michele's father, Dennis Roldan (Mitchell Gumabao), was such an incredibly gifted athlete himself that despite being a professional actor already, he was still recruited to play in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) by Coach Arturo "Turo" Valenzona for the Gilbey's Gin Gimlets during the 1983 season. Among Roldan's teammates were 1980 PBA Rookie of the Year Willie Generalao, Terry Saldaña, Steve Watson and scoring machine Lew Massey. In the same year, Roldan also won Best Supporting Actor in the Metro Manila Film Festival for his role in the movie, Hot Property. Michele's youngest brother is budding actor Marco Gumabao, who is slowly carving a name for himself in ABS-CBN's "Luv U".
3. Michele and former Ateneo de Manila Blue Eagles basketball captain Kirk Long are set to appear in a renowned telecommunications company's tutorial campaign on sports using an app found exclusively on the aforementioned company's multimedia landline device (I'm pretty sure you know what apparatus I'm referring to here). Michele handles the volleyball instructional i.e. rules, techniques and training exercises (including her lethal jump-serve).
4. Michele "must" eat ice cream at least once a day—hence her forever husky voice. She also "needs" to visit the spa regularly—which she does with her best friend on the team, Liss Gohing.
5. Michele's name is spelled with only ONE "L"; contrary to the common Michelle, which are both acceptable. The thing is she only found out when she was in COLLEGE that her name only had one "L". She had been writing her name with two "L's" since nursery.
6. Michele actually considered studying in Ateneo after she graduated from Holy Spirit High School because their family residence is in a nearby village in Quezon City (where she still lives today). Although she passed the ACET, she eventually opted to enroll at La Salle because many of her family members studied there.
7. Michele is left handed. She learned how to play volleyball using her right hand because, "…I didn't see anyone using their left hand to play."

Hey Guys! This list here is the complete set of Made-Up Canons that I have created. If you don't like a Face Claim, please let me know, and we can think of an even better one together! Also, if you're new, and you have a Character in mind that you'd like to be a Made-Up Canon that is new (OC), then PM any of my Characters: Pam, Cassie, Stefan, Stiles, Grayson, and Klaus (My characters on the Crystal Waters RP is slightly different from the characters I have on the Rule The Night RP forum.). You can also PM me if you have any questions regarding The two separate types of Canon Lists, Rules, Character Applications - anything of that sort. I'll be more than happy to help with anything!
ALL Made-Up Canons will be replaced by a new one only if they die. Also, please don't decide the fate of any character (getting killed, etc.).The new ones that replace the old ones will be for the next season (On Rule The Night and this site.) Please talk to one another before making a decision for someone so that way no arguements occur. If you disobey this, then you're character will receive a warning, and if he/she does it again (or multiple times) then he/she WILL be banned. Also, this list is on BOTH of the Sites, so if you want to be a different character on one of the two forums, go right ahead. First come, first serve.

She should know, I guess, since she's the current mayor. She spanked him last night, getting 43 votes to his 24 in her race for re-election (there are only 138 registered voters in town).

Adding Spikes to Gain Knowledge
Planning an Agile project can be rather simple when all is known. When the market is predictable, requirements are clear, the technology is well understood, and the team is experienced in using all of the required tools, there isn't much research required to complete a project. But for those times when all of the stars are not aligned and (God forbid) there is something the team does not fully understand, the team will need to dedicate some time to investigation or experimentation in order to complete the project.

Overview of Barium Enema
Barium enema (BE) is a test most people would like to avoid. The truth is, if done properly, a barium enema need not be an awful ordeal. Basically the barium enema is a fluoroscopic test used to study the large bowel, or colon.
There are two basic types of barium enemas: The regular, or single contrast, barium enema and the air contrast barium enema. The regular, or single contrast, barium enema is performed using only barium; the air contrast barium enema uses barium and air together.
When Is a Barium Enema (BE) Necessary?
The indications for barium enemas remain a controversial issue. Colonoscopy, which involves inserting a fiber optic tube into the rectum and passing it through the large bowel, has taken over as the definitive way of examining the large bowel. That test, though significantly more costly than the BE, is generally considered more accurate. Its real advantage is the ability to biopsy and even remove polyps (small growths that are usually noncancerous, but not always) through the same tube. Sedation is generally needed and, when effective, causes complete amnesia of the event.
Though not the "gold standard," BE is considered an excellent test for finding cancers of the colon, for looking at various inflammatory conditions such as diverticulitis, and for discovering polyps, especially with the air contrast technique.
Now and then, the radiologist may be asked to actually treat a condition known as intussuseption. In this rare situation, the end of the small bowel rolls into the beginning of the large bowel. One tube slides inside the other, so they block each other. The remedy is pressure from the outside to push the inside tube back out of the outside tube (reduce the intususseption).
Alternatives to Barium Enema
Colonoscopy is the principle alternative to BE. Patients who are too debilitated, or are unable to cooperate enough to have a barium enema can have alternative abdominal and pelvic CT scans that detect major large bowel pathology. There is also another test called virtual colonoscopy that allows the radiologist to examine the large bowel almost like a computer game.
Barium Enema Risks and Potential Complications
The good news is that there are few complications to barium enemas. Most complications arise from the insertion of the enema tube and the inflation of the little balloon at the enema tip. Very rarely, patients may be allergic to the latex in the balloon. Overinflation of the balloon can result in tearing of the rectal wall, which can be a very serious complication. This complication is most apt to occur when the lining of the rectum is inflamed, such as in ulcerative colitis.

Clay Hutson has a pretty interesting career. He owns a live entertainment production business that primarily works with musicians, although he also manages other types of events. His company is based in Nashville, Tennessee, and has been in operation since 2009. Before starting out in the music industry he completed a college degree in theater design. He also put in time working on a couple of Billy Graham national tours before switching over to rock music, his true passion.
Some of the big names that he has gone on tour with are Guns N' Roses, Kid Rock, and Pink. He designs produces and manages their concerts over the course of an entire tour. One tour that Clay Hutson recalls really enjoying was the "Bleed Like Me" 2005 world tour that Garbage put on. He says he went across the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australia while working on this tour. At that time he was working as a monitor engineer. Another international tour he was on was the 2017 OneRepublic tour that had concerts in both North America and Asia. During this tour, he handled the automatic rigging system.
Clay Hutson says that the last recession had a big negative impact on his employer at the time. Since he had developed all of the marketable skills he needed to have success in the music industry he decided the time was ripe to start his own business. His experience gives him the ability to see what is feasible and what is just an unrealistic pipe dream when it comes to things such as the set design.
Computer-aided design plays a big part in what Clay Hutson does for a living. Before a tour, he will get the measurement details for each concert venue and then use a CAD product where he inputs these numbers. He says that sometimes they will have to forgo some really good and innovative equipment simply due to the fact that it's too big to get in some of the venue's entrances. It's by paying attention to details like this, and routinely checking all of his work, that Clay Hutson has developed a solid reputation in his industry.

The photographic digital artwork I am presenting is called "Giants of Chicago." It is framed by my interest in capturing the life behind the facades of the Chicago skyscrapers and the interaction with their surroundings.
Photographers around the world have taken photos of these giants, but no one has interwoven reality with fiction. Each one of these giants predominate spaces, determine shapes and interact with their surroundings while embracing the life of their inhabitants and creating an interesting skyline. Walking by them, I feel delighted with how they bring life to each other, by reflecting shadows that move by the day and transcends by embracing the night. They enable me to frame their impetuous presence by my eye. Their fronts, profiles and sides give an overall sense of how massive they are, and their lines, textures and different shapes draw contrast among them. Their presence creates a sense of an urban battle, each wrestling to touch the sky.
At first, I was inspired by the Flatiron Building, which is a famous landmark of New York City; monumental, yet classy. Its solemn presence gave me the opportunity to take the building out of its surroundings and create a fantasy by utilizing Photoshop filters, channels, blending modes and adjustments. Colors chosen are extravagant with dazzling lines. Photos taken inside the building of such things like decorative elements or carpets are used to create the background of each building. Each giant possesses lines, shapes textures and personalities that inspire me in their own ways. Each Giant is portrayed with a blend of reality and fiction, which gives a strong visual impact.
Russian photographer Nicolas Tikhomiroff once wrote: "Photography must be the result of an emotion, a ray of enlightenment, or a moment full of love or sadness."

Have you ever done a cooking course and put off trying out your new recipes, to find later you just never get round to it? That has happened to me before… but this time I wanted to learn from my mistake. I was determined to put the Hello Kitty class I did while in Singapore to good practice! Problem: too many catch up jobs to do after our holiday. One of the looming jobs was garden work… weeds, weeds, everywhere! It's spring time now, and everything is growing quickly, especially the weeds.
However, after a morning of intensive weeding, I still had some energy left, so decided to make a practice Kitty bento for lunch.
The onigiri part was okay…I managed to get the shape worked out…although as you can see Kitty's ear got a bit mashed at some stage. And the other problem was Kitty was way too big! She's more like one of those giant feral cats we get in the desert here! Funny, when you're portioning the rice it doesn't look like much. Let me tell you, this cat was a serious mouthful. And because the onigiri was so massive, there was no room to show the colourful and tasty side dishes! So they've had to be hidden underneath the kitty and katsu chicken. You'll have to take my word for it, the sides were steamed baby spinach, and a salad of corn, peppers, and tomatoes in sesame miso dressing.
The other thing I would have done differently was, to add some food picks. I even had the perfect ones, lady bugs and bees would have been just right! So anyway, I guess there's always room for improvement…next time :).

Aaron Radelow, had the opportunity to work with the Getty to research drawings and materials to re-create a magnificent replica of a Pierre Gole table. The photos which have never been distributed below show both the original Pierre Gole table bordered by Aaron's re-created tables.
For the past twenty five years, Aaron Radelow has been hand producing original designs and masterful re-creations. His diverse portfolio of work includes everything from Queen Anne dressing tables, Byzantine hand-carved gates, and rustic Morris chairs to now the replication of a Pierre Gole writing table.
These tables are his most treasured accomplishment which far surpasses the furniture of the modern woodworker today. He now can truly imagine what it must have been to build furniture for Louis XIV. He built two tables. One is a re-creation of the original piece on permanent display at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles. The other (contre-partye) is not known to exist.
To view more on his journey and the process of creating these amazing tables, click on the brochure.

Dhoop Kinaray - At the Edge of the Sun
Let's start with the essentials.
1. Story/script: Thank you Haseena Moin, you wonderful, wonderful woman. One look at Moin's writing credits (Ankahi, Aahat, Tanhaiyaan, Zer Zabar Paish, Dhund, Dhoop Kinaray etc.) and you have but an idea of her creative calibre and mastery over Urdu. *standing ovation*
Focussing on just Dhoop Kinaray for the anon...
An exceptional, convincing and very well-told romantic story between a frothy, lovable, beautiful young medical intern (Zoya) and her much-older, very hot, sullen, no-nonsense, broody, intelligent and totally awesome boss, a pediatrician of some note (Dr Ahmer) . Throw in a smorgasbord of fantastic supporting characters (Baba, Anji, Dr Irfan, Fazeelat, the other interns etc.) and an evil-psycho-hateful-type vamp like you won't believe (Dr Sheena: Yukh thoooo!) and you have all the ingredients that Haseena Moin used to make DK a work of art beyond compare.
Did I mention the pace of this drama? It speeds along from start to finish like that *snaps fingers* and when the story concludes at just the right time, you feel a twinge of regret that it's all ended too soon. THAT'S the mark of a good writer, what?
2. Direction: Directed by Rahat Kazmi's/Dr Ahmer's real-life wife, Saira Kazmi. Was watching a random video off YouTube where she was explaining how she was all about realistic drama and a natural style of story-telling. Hey, Saira, we believe you. Absolutely. Well done, I say.
3. Casting: In terms of casting, I don't think any televised drama has ever since, or ever will, get it this right.
-Rahat Kazmi as Dr Ahmer: Drool factor 10/10;
-Marina Khan as Dr Zoya: Beautiful, fun, innocent and extremely lovable as female protagonist - every young girl wanted to be her;
-Sajid Hasan as Dr Irfan: I want one to go, please... My God, Dr Irfan's hilarious character is everyone's favourite memory of DK;
-Kehkashaan Awaz as the sweet Anji, Zoya's childhood friend and neighbour;
-The acid spewing Dr Sheena, played by Badar Khalil- DIE DIE DIE! Has anyone ever managed to play a character so universally hateful and psyched? Even her unfortunate ABBA hairdo makes you want to scalp her;
-Zoya's adorable father Baba, played by Qazi Wajid. *grin*
-Fazeelat: Zoya's aaya since forever; a loud, abrasive and extremely loving, paan-chewing harridan who is the proverbial coconut - hard on the outside, soft inside.
All the actors were catapulted to superstardom after Dhoop Kinaray, if they weren't established as top-of-the-league already.
Here's a classic bit from Dhoop Kinaray. It's the beginning of the story, we see Dr Ahmer (hubba hubba) leading his interns on rounds, and Dr Zoya goofing up and irking the hell out of him. *flashback to own college gaffes*
4. Soundtrack: DK has an eminently hummable soundtrack. Ghazals by Nayyara Noor, poetry by Faiz Ahmad Faiz. I've been humming the background music stupidly for days now. Even to put my baby nephew to sleep. He's six months old and then some, but he gets it.
Here's a good link to Dhoop Kinaray's soundtrack. It's got MP3s, lyrics, translations and videos.
And now a video of the most grin-inducing romantic bit from the whole series... the bit where the two docs go gallivanting on a field trip and we as audiences pee our pants in anticipation of all the romance that will follow. "HE HOLDS HER HAND!" OMG OMG OMG! This was a very big deal in Pakistani dramas, okay? Ha ha. Lyrics (by Faiz) as follows:
Raat yoon dil mein teri khoee hui yaad aaye
Jaise veeraane mein chhupke se bahaar aa jaaye;
Jaise sehraaon mein haule se chale baad-e-naseem;
Jaise beemaar ko be-wajhaa qaraar aa jaaye.
5. Style Statement: Dhoop Kinaray oozes in sophistication and style, whether it's sartorial or cultural or verbal. Class will tell, is what I always say.
The clothes the characters wear in this series were the height of fashion then. I promise, they were. Our family (and all salwar-kameez wearing folk everywhere I suppose) always used to take the lead from PTV's contemporary dramas in terms of fashion trends. What they wore, we wore. (This is not true anymore. What they wear on PTV nowadays, I could never wear. Too little textile used and full length salwars and sleeves seem to be a thing of the past. But wait! This is neither here nor there.)
And then the depiction of family life, the tehzeeb, the beauty of well-spoken Urdu, the shaairi mixed in with everyday dialogue - most endearing about Pakistani dramas...
Even the hair styles, yes, even them! They were oh-so-cool back then. (Coincidentally, I had Zoya Khan's boy-cut all my girlhood days. Also known as the Princess Diana cut. *blush*)
Anyway. To cut a long story short, Dhoop Kinaray is aces. Those of you who haven't watched, start downloading all episodes from YouTube or just go to the many online sources and buy the original DVD. Absolutely worth it, since it's so cheap. About USD 20 or so.
When I look at the tripe that calls itself 'drama' on channels today (especially Indian tele-serials.... gaaah!...) laughing alone does not satisfy. I need to point AND laugh. Which I do, before changing channels very, very fast.

I used to love most of the PTV series (grew up on a diet of weekday afternoon soaps in the middle east!)- dhoop kinare was a game-changer, really.
the urdu was mindblowingly poetic - even all non-stop talking that marina's character indulged in - and i had a huge crush on dr irfan's ready responses. sigh...
the only grouse i had was that the final episode always seemed really abrupt - but after the endless procession of K-iarrhea that Ms Kapoor leashed out, they seem perfectly timed.

@Blah: WHAT???!! You haven't watched/heard of 'Dhoop Kinare' and others of this ilk? Purchase and watch immediately, I say. Unless you don't understand Urdu. Then fuggedaboutit. :)
@LostWriter: I used to feel the final episode ended too soon as well, until it hit me that we've become too used to long-drawn out romantic slo-mo climaxes.
Am now very glad Haseena Maoin and Saira Kazmi ended it as they did. Kept it short and very, very sweet. Abrupt as it is, my family and I always end up cheering loudly and clapping when Dr Ahmer grabs Zoya's hand. *sigh* (Fade to Dhoop Kinaray soundtrack)

- A Lost Writer said...
ah yes...the final scene...and enough left to one's own imagination, as opposed to the chronic magnification of every emotion (in triplicate) that one is subject to these days.

Border people never had enough of 'Dhoop Kinaray'. It helped that the reception of PTV was always better than that of Doordarshan. And if it was not, you could always go to the the rooftop and do the little antenna dance while singing 'aya kya, ab aya kya, ab. ab'.
- 10 November 2009 at 17:08
- longblackveil said...
Yup. I read somewhere that PTV dramas were very big in Punjab as well.
Hahahah@ antenna fixing routine. We still do that in our village in Doda. Abba's got a DTH dish which edventurous school kids keep playing with in our absence.
So an hour or so of "Aava? Vaieen? Aav kya?" is par for the course every time.
- 10 November 2009 at 17:40
Pretty, why have you used 'At the Edge of the Sun' for?
- 10 November 2009 at 19:31
- bollyviewer said...
Sorry to be so late to the party. But I just discovered your blog, and I'm so happy to find Dhoop Kinarey here! There's precious little written about PTV serials in blogland, and this was the jewel in the crown of the golden age PTV dramas. It wasnt popular just in the border areas, in the 90s, you could find this even in Bombay - along with the likes of Baqra Kishton pe and other Haseena Moin serials. I was in school when this first came out, and had already been given a scene-by-scene account of it, not to mention all the key dialogues, long before I got to see it. And still, nothing could've prepared me for its awesomeness. I do wish I could find a decent print of it though. The only copies floating around seem to have been converted from a bad VHS! :-(
PS: If you did go on a PTV-oldies kick, please do write about them. There were so many good ones, that seem to have retreated into oblivion now.
- 24 March 2010 at 03:25
- Yasin said...
WOW, How could I have missed this one..
Didnnt expect that I would find someone who openly cherishes PTV's "golden age" though I am sure everyone concerned misses it...
The post made me nostalgic. Even today I watch their tid-bits on youtube, My fav happens to be Talaash, where Junoon (my god band! ) plays its own part...(I still laugh at Salmans ludicrous hair-do back then and Brians broken Urdu) Have you seen Talaash ? or Dhundlay raaste for that matter (Junaid jamsheed with Vital Signs)... Please tell me , Is it possible to get their DVD's in Jammu or anywhere?
and @Vinayak Razadan : So perfectly described, that I am reliving my childhood :)

I never had the opportunity to watch this amazing serial during my growing up days.
I recently came across this series and i must say - wat a story .
But the highlight of this serial are its dialogues. even though i do not understand urdu
a lot but i love this language and the way dialogues are written and delivered in this
serial is just amazing. Am watching this series now-a-days and am loving every moment of it.
It just pulls back in time - amazing work done by all the artistes. You cant help but fall
in love with them. Every character is so well placed that you feel no one else cud have done
a better justice to his / her character.
Also i read recently somewhere that Haseena Moin wrote this story in just 2 hrs afer a
challenge thrown at her by one of her friends. I was wondering if this is wat she cud do
in just 2 hrs - we can just imagine the extent of her creativity.
Lovely show - wish they had more like these in present times. Short but memorable.

I watched "Dhoop Kinaray" TV series at the time of 90's. Me and my family love to watch that time. Few days back I purchased the original VCD from website www.Moviemart.in . This took me back to the old-memories of 90's. Dhoop kinaray is one of perfect drama series I have ever seen. I got to know from one of my friend abut the remake of Dhoop Kinaray, named" Kuch toh log kahenge". This is also a awesome TV serial. All the characters in Dhoop Kinarey are famous like Zoya Khan. I am Loving It.

Words. I love words I saw this competition on Angel's blog, the closing date is tonight. I have wanted to write a story for ages, in fact I have one in my head. So I decided to write the opening for my story for the competition. You only have 250 words which is really hard. I have not written fiction since I was at school so this was quite a challenge, mostly to get over my own anxiety and fear of not be fantastic straight away. I was tempted to just write a poem instead but decided to take the challenge rather. Oh well will send something in, not sure I am brave enough to post it here.
I was talking to my mom about the competition and she told me about a story in 6 words
Ernest Hemmingway was challenged to write a story in 6 words, his answer which he personally thought was his best pose ever was "For sale: baby shoes, never used"
Can you write a story in 6 words? Try and leave it in the comments.

Health & Medicine
Stay healthy this summer with easy cuts and bumps first aid
When the weather heats up, we become more active — engaging in fun activities outdoors.
With this increased activity comes an increase in opportunities for injury, ranging from minor cuts and scrapes to serious injuries requiring immediate medical attention.
There are a few precautions that can help ensure that you or your child's minor injury doesn't turn into something more serious.
For a minor laceration, like a cut or a scrape, you should focus on cleaning the wound immediately. Use rubbing alcohol to swipe the area clean and cover it with Band-Aid or gauze bandage. Wash contaminated wounds with saline water.
If the cut hasn't improved, or begins to show redness or inflammation within 24-48 hours, it could be a sign of infection. Certain infections, like staph, can have serious consequences if left untreated, so seek medical treatment as soon as you see signs or symptoms of infection. If you're unsure about the timing of your last tetanus booster, be sure to get that taken care of as soon as you receive an injury.
Depending on how severe the infection is, your physician may perform a culture to determine what kind of bacteria is causing the infection. In turn, this will tell the physician what kind of antibiotic to prescribe to guarantee quick and effective treatment.
Not all lacerations should be treated at home. For cuts that bleed excessively and the bleeding cannot be stopped within a reasonable time frame — or where the skin has been completely torn off — seek medical attention immediately.
Depending on the type of injury, your physician will be able to properly clean the wound and, if appropriate, administer stitches.
When caring for wounds, especially those with an infection, be sure to use precautions to prevent the spread of disease. Certain bacterial infections like MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) resist antibiotics, are highly contagious and can spread quickly.
When changing dressings, always be sure to wear gloves.
Another important summer safety tip involves open wounds and pools. Individuals with open wounds should not swim in public pools to avoid spreading infection to others.
Cuts and scrapes aren't the only danger of the summer. Bumps, bruises and sprains are also common.
If you have twisted your ankle or foot and experience swelling and pain, but you're still able to put weight on it, it's likely a sprain. Administer ice, prop up the injured leg and rest for the next 24 to 48 hours. Take Tylenol or ibuprofen for pain.
If the swelling doesn't go down in two days, or if you're unable to put weight on your foot, it could be sign of something more serious, like a hairline fracture. When this occurs, seek medical attention.
If you sustain a head injury and experience a severe headache or vision problems, it could be a sign of a more serious injury, and medical attention should be sought immediately.

The Huntington County Soil and Water Conservation District handed out awards at its 60th annual meeting and banquet, held Tuesday, Feb. 27, in First Merchants Heritage Hall at the Huntington County Fairgrounds.
Joe Updike received the Conservation Farmer Award while Steve and Judy Adams took home the River Friendly Farmer Award.
Updike was honored for the conservation practices he employs on his approximately 900-acre farming operation. The retired Natural Resources Conservation Service employee practices the no-till method on his farms, on which corn, soybeans, wheat and hay are raised. He has installed grassed waterways, water and sediment control basins, rock chutes, a dry dam, diversions and drop pipes.
Additionally, he has placed filter strips along stream banks and seeds cover crops in the interest of protecting the soil and reducing the flow of excess nutrients into streams.
Overall, these practices have helped reduce soil erosion, improve soil health and protect the quality of the water in rivers and streams, note SWCD officials.
Steve and Judy Adams were recognized as river-friendly farmers for having installed grassed waterways, mini-dikes and filter strips along the streams on their farms. The couple has also employed a no-till conservation tillage method on their farms for several years.
Thanks to these techniques, the Adamses have protected waterways from excess nutrients and chemical run-off. They have also curtailed soil erosion on their farms.
For their efforts, the couple received a sign for their property that announces their status as river-friendly farmers.
Other honorees at the event included youths who had completed soil and water projects at last year's Huntington County 4-H Fair. 4-H'ers recognized were Brandon Briggs, Chloe Couch, Taylor Martz, Jonathan McMillan and Matthew McMillan.
At the start of the meeting, an election was held and saw Kandace Villanueva reelected to her supervisor position.
A presentation by meteorologist Greg Shoup concluded the event. Shoup, a weather forecaster with WANE-TV in Fort Wayne, spoke about climate change and its effects on agriculture.
Door prizes were handed out following Shoup's presentation.
SWCD's regular meetings are open to the public and held the third Tuesday of every month at 2040 Riverfork Drive, Huntington.

Just one week left until Moon's Creations closes it's doors for at least 2 months as we welcome our little Moon Bun into the world.
This means you have only 1 week left to pick up pieces in the Moon's Creations shop. Pieces are not being relisted. What's currently in the shop, is all that's left. Please be sure to get what you want now. I cannot guarantee pieces will be there when we return, as I'm using this maternity leave to revamp the entire store.
Momma Moon's got an entire nursery to put together for the August arrival and hasn't had the chance with running Moon's Creations, so I'm definitely looking forward to a little nesting.

Wishing you both all the love and happiness your hearts can contain!

So this week over at CCEE Stampers we were challenged to make a card using a Fun Fold. These kinds of cards are always a challenge for me just because I'm a "stay-with-in-the-box" kind of gal with cards. But I accepted the challenge and went to work.
I used Celebrate Sophia from Paper Pretties. Colored her with copics and added a cloud background. Used Sassy Circles also from Paper Pretties as the ground.
From the side so you can see more of the fold.
Don't forget to check out the rest of the gals cards over at the CCEE Stampers blog. Come play along with us as we would love to see your Fun Fold cards.
Thanks for stopping by!

There was a sign of the movie on the back of the bench, but I heard it was removed.
There was a train in the park!
The building around the park looked nice.

Future Movement MP Jamal Jarrah denied Sunday that residents were fleeing the outskirts of the northeastern, restive border town of Arsal due to ongoing fighting between ISIS and the Nusra Front.Intermittent but fierce fighting between the rival extremists has been ongoing since Wednesday, when Nusra militants launched a surprise attack on ISIS posts in Syria's mountainous Qalamoun region, which extends east of Lebanon's border town Arsal.The militants have been holed up in the mountainous border region around Arsal since August 2014, and are surrounded by Hezbollah mainly from the west and the Syrian army from the east.
