About the Book
"We saw that life did not narrate, but made impressions on our brains. We, in turn, if we wish to produce on you an effect of life, must not narrate but render impressions." Ford Madox Ford in a memoir regarding his collaboration with Joseph Conrad I seem to come back to that quote often. It is there in the sidebar of some of my blogs and website: aplaceof.info brieflyinjapan.blogspot. suburbanfoodforest.blogspot dennisargall.blogspot unmese.blogspot duemesi.blogspot Here I am seeking to produce something other than a blog, but informed by the blog of the same name as this book.To blog a journey of ten days is demanding. Until we arrived in Tokyo, until I began walking and photographing and thinking, I was nervous about and very unsure of undertaking another blog... but swiftly I realised it was a marvelous discipline, forcing me to say "what am I seeing here, how do I describe the sensations of this day?" And then there is the camera. I have used it to capture life, ordinary life, I trust with respect. If you allow the camera to work inside your head, it enhances and alters vision, creating magic. Over years, with the facility of the digital camera, my perception has changed. Painting, I hate rectangles, canvases. But the LCD screen can work its way into your head so you see form and shape, irony and charm, personal spaces and human moments which you otherwise may miss. A Japanese friend said of the blog "You see things I never notice." Very satisfying to hear that. Knowing that in other times I also might not see things too familiar, too mundane. Our travel was freehand witha depth of research in advance, especially about trains, the key to travelling in Japan and a huge part of life in Japan. We set some objectives and reviewed things we like to do. Broadly speaking, we avoided the things most proferred to tourists. We used no guides, we wandered away from the big things into suburban and daily life.

For those, who'd like to collect informaion and knowledge relating to Yoga, should chose the right types of articles for their reading and reference. As a result, from these Yoga articles, readers can find a lot of helpful items which are not only clear and comprehensice ideas of the different postures and exercises but also many benefits and advantages thanks to exercising Yoga. In addition, some articles also explain the right methods of meditation in detail.
Yoga is a very ancient science whose origins date back to time immemorial. This is also a form of physical exercise which has been practiced for many centuries by people all over the world and who are able to vouch for its benefits and advantages. It is not possible to experience the benefits of doing yoga within a short period of time. The benefits of practicing yoga can be experienced only after practicing for a certain period of time. People should make sure that they practice their postures on a regular basis.
People all over the world are leading extremely busy and hectic lives and they do not have the time to read articles in order to gain even a surface level of knowledge regarding yoga. They should set aside some time in order to select the right kind of yoga articles in order to gain a certain level of knowledge before they actually start practicing postures. All the methods and tips which have been prescribed in the yoga articles will have to be followed methodically in order to achieve the right kind of results after doing yoga. Most of these articles will contain tips on the different methods which can be adopted for relaxation, concentration as well as meditation. A proper sense of co-ordination and balance between the mind and the body can be achieved when yoga postures are practiced on a regular basis.
People who are unable to set aside any extra time specially for doing yoga feel that they will be able to attain the benefits of yoga by simply going through a few yoga articles. But all the advice which has been given in these yoga articles should be seriously incorporated into their lives in order to reap the benefits. They should be able to believe that it is possible for them to improve after doing yoga otherwise they will not be able to gain the benefits normally gained by practicing yoga.
People who practice yoga on a regular basis will be able to establish a connection between the mind, body and the spirit. Only people who are convinced about this fact will be able to experience the sense of well-being after they have been practicing yoga for a long period of time. Sometimes people are unaware of the changes taking place inside them after doing yoga.

You know how there are certain clothes that are just made for a specific season? I feel like that's the case with this dress. I don't think I'd be able to get away with wearing it any other time of year besides summer. I mean - the vibrant red, the palm leaf print, the short length, the side cut-outs... if all these details don't scream summer then I don't know what does. It's smart to have clothes that can transcend over 2 or more seasons, but there's also nothing wrong with having those select few pieces that are forever stuck in a precise time of year. Just for fun, y'know? Hence the title for this post which also happens to be a catchy song by Demi Lovato (although she's probably not referring to a dress... I think it's about kissing a girl or something). I'm clever.

Lazy Salsa
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: This rendition of Salsa Huevona, literally the lazy (wo)man's salsa, requires a tad bit more time with the knife than most other recipes. Usually a cook will dice the pepper about the same size as the other ingredients, which is fine if you're using a very mild pepper or if ya don't mind randomly chomping down on a huge chunk of heat .
But when using habañeros, I would suggest finely mincing them with garlic (mom always told me the garlic cuts the sting and tempers the ensuing stomach ache) so that the oils immediately infuse the salsa with piquant and savory flavor. This little trick also gives the salsa consistent kick with every bite. —gabrielaskitchen
Serves: 6
(3 c.) medium tomatoes (heirloom, vine ripe or roma)
bunch (1 c.) green onion
(1 c.) red onion
cup chopped cilantro
habañero (mild), two if you like it hot!
cloves garlic
tablespoon salt
- Wash and dry your ingredients. Chop each of the tomatoes into approximately 1 cm. chunks. Chop the bunch of green onions 1 inch above rooted ends, discard the roots and cut stems at half inch intervals. Chop the red onion about the same size as the green onion. Chop the cilantro. Place all ingredients in a large bowl with the juice of one lime.
- Finely dice the habañero and garlic so that it is almost paste-like. Sprinkle with 1/2 Tbs. salt. Add to the large bowl and gently but thoroughly toss ingredients together. Chill for 1/2 hour.
- Serve with freshly fried corn tortilla chips, store will do, but homemade is always better. This salsa is also delicious added to scrambled eggs.

Most people in the United States have quite a collection of clothes. One study finds that the average person in the United States will throw away 82 pounds of textile items every year. These items that end up thrown away go to landfills. The United States is having a difficult time keeping landfills from overflowing. There are ways that you can help end the problem of overflowing landfills while helping those around you through donating used clothing. In this post, you will learn how you can give clothing back to the community.
Clothing Drop Off
Dropping off clothing is a great way to give back to the community. One study shows that, in 1930, the average women had nine outfits. Current figures show that women now have about 30 outfits. Many of thRead More

'Seasonal Disturbances' has recently featured in both the Sunday Times and the Financial Times!
'McCarthy Woolf has established herself as an essential poet of our time. This beautiful book brims with poignancy, vigour and formal ingenuity. At its heart, this is an ode to the complex human spirit and a sweet song of resistance to the easy specious answers so often on offer in the gyre of our spiralling world.' Rowan Ricardo Phillips
'Migration, feminism, the natural world under pressure: McCarthy Woolf's particular ecology of experience is a cosmology for our times.' Jo Shapcott
'Extraordinarily moving and technically flawless...Birth/death is the most mythologically charged binary. We think of Eliot's 'Journey of the Magi': "were we led all that way/for Birth or Death?"...This religiosity of loss and salvation is evident in McCarthy Woolf's collection, where enclosure and transcendence become part of the emotional equation.' Julian Stannard, The Poetry Review
'The stillbirth of Karen McCarthy Woolf's son is the powerful emotional core of this deft, unsentimental collection. A beautiful, painful, pitch-perfect debut.' Kate Kellaway
I curated the SWITCH website for the Young Poets Network and Cape Farewell which showcases visual art, literature and music produced by artists such as Anthony Gormley, Sophie Calle, DJ Spooky and PJ Harvey on their ocean voyages to locations at the forefront of climate change.
'This is a brave book. And much more than that. McCarthy Woolf has made a figurative, general and various beauty out of something terrible. The poems are quite without self-indulgence or sentimentality, but hard in their truth.' David Constantine

Dido, a fictionalised account of the life of Dido Belle Lindsay, a mixed-race girl who lived at Kenwood House in Hampstead in the 1760s, was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 as an Afternoon Play.
"When I first came across Karen's work I was struck by her ambition, wit and sureness of touch. I was impressed by the range of voices interwoven in her poems, at times almost like radio dramas in miniature, and by her evident interest in form. These are rare qualities in first collections."

|Re: Marketing Harmony [was Re: [general] compatibility packages]
|Sun, 13 Aug 2006 00:19:33 GMT
I think that Stefano points to the right direction. To be more specific, Harmony will gain market share if it can run the most popular java applications, mostly open source (tomcat, resin, jetty, eclipse, hsql, mckoi, etc), and providing an efficient implementation of the basic libraries. To add an additional factor, in some countries like Venezuela, governments started a policy about adopting free/open software (in the GNU sense) for all its activities, whenever/wherever possible. In the particular case of Venezuela, it has been very aggressive, affecting the way of doing IT business with the public sector, and there was a lobby group that has put strong pressure trying to forbid the usage of Java as a technology based on the false statement that this is propietary technology, not compatible with the principles of free and open source software. There has been a lot of discussion and lobby around the subject, and of course the subject of the forthcomming great Harmony JVM has been at the center of the debate. I was told that even the Kaffe people visited Venezuela and shared some time with the Ministry of Science and Technology, explaining the current state of free Java - I cannot confirm this. My company has invested some resources on this public-relations too, protecting our current and future position, as well as our investment on our Java framework To make the long story short, all we need here is a free JVM + JIT that can run popular server-side webapps and Eclipse, and if possible as fast as the IBM JVM does ;) -- leaving other interpreted options as perl, php and ruby eating the dust...

Our Christmas Tree
Hi Everyone,
Lisa from Lisa's Craft Room here to share something with you this month. I first have to apologize to Sheila and to you all because I picked up a second job working nights to make extra money and I have had no time at all to craft, as you can see from my blog. I just have enough time to come home from my day job, have a quick bite to eat, change and off I go. So please forgive me for not having a handmade project for you today.
I decided I would take a picture of our tree and post it for all to see. We used to have real trees for years, I loved the smell. Then we purchased a fake tree and used that for a couple of years, then last year my husband said why don't we just get a little table top tree. I really wasn't crazy about it because I liked the big trees, but when we bought it and decorated it, I thought it was so cute. I am still using ornaments from when my son was little and ornaments that we've gotten over the years. I really do like it and I'm thinking next year I will decorate it differently. Maybe, with just balls and ribbon. Something really pretty and more adult like, since my son is an adult now :) We will see.
Thank you so much for understanding. I didn't want to not post anything, so I hope this is ok :) I do have cute things that I want to make for next month. So, I will give myself plenty of time to get them done. Thanks Sheila :)

'The Yellow Jacket' named Best Non-Daily Newspaper in region
Waynesburg University's student-run newspaper, The Yellow Jacket, has been named the Best All-Around Non-Daily Newspaper across four states, which is unprecedented in the University's history. While the newspaper has been named a finalist for the award in the past, this year, the newspaper was named the first-place winner for the first time.
"This is, without a doubt, the biggest recognition in the newspaper's nearly 130-year history," said Dr. Brandon Szuminsky, faculty advisor for the Yellow Jacket and instructor of communication.
To earn first place, the Yellow Jacket overtook finalist newspapers at Central Michigan University and Kent State University, which have an undergraduate population of approximately 20,000 and 40,000 students, respectively.
The award is one of a series of Mark of Excellence awards, recognizing the best in student journalism, given by the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ). SPJ is a national, prestigious organization of professional and student journalists. Waynesburg's SPJ region, Region 4, includes Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia and part of Pennsylvania. The Yellow Jacket is therefore up against a large number of accomplished college newspapers for the Best All-Around award.
"It's an unbelievable honor," said Kimmi Baston, executive editor of the Yellow Jacket. "To be named, effectively, the best newspaper in the region above schools that are 20 or 30 times larger than us is true validation for the hours and hours of hard work the staff puts in."
The Yellow Jacket received this honor when several members of the staff attended the regional SPJ conference in Detroit, Michigan, on March 31 and April 1. At the Mark of Excellence Award Ceremony, the staff also received nine group and individual awards, including their first-ever recognition for a photo illustration. In writing categories, which are divided into small and large schools, the staff swept both finalist spots and the winning spot in two different categories, General News and Sports Writing, and earned first place in In-Depth Reporting.
"This was an incredible weekend of firsts for The Yellow Jacket," said Dr. Szuminsky. "We've had success in the past at SPJ but we've never had so many first-place awards. And to sweep all three awards in two of the categories – and key categories, like general news and sports writing – speaks volumes about the quality of student work being done at Waynesburg."
All four of the staff's first-place entries will now move on to the national Mark of Excellence competition and be judged against the first-place winners from the rest of the country's regions.
Staff group and individual awards include:
- Finalist, Breaking News Reporting (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "Thomas More women's basketball team stripped of 2014-15 title" by senior Jacob Meyer
- Finalist, General News Reporting (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "Incoming freshmen still largely unaware of housing policy" by senior Jacob Meyer
- Finalist, General News Reporting (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "Shanksville: Stories are shared and respects are paid at Flight 93 Memorial" by junior Shon Meade
- Winner, General News Reporting (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "Ongoing drug issues addressed throughout community" by graduate Anthony Conn and sophomores Teghan Simonton and Mattie Winowitch
- Winner, In-Depth Reporting (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "Ongoing drug issues addressed throughout community" by graduate Anthony Conn, senior Kimmi Baston and sophomores Teghan Simonton and Mattie Winowitch
- Finalist, Sports Writing (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "Thomas More women's basketball team stripped of 2014-15 title" by senior Jacob Meyer
- Finalist, Sports Writing (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "The journey of the 2016 Women's Cross Country team" by senior Jacob Meyer and sophomore Luke Goodling
- Winner, Sports Writing (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "D-III sports about more than professional aspirations, students say" by senior Kimmi Baston
- Finalist, Photo Illustration (Small: 1-9,999 Students): "'I Do' doesn't have to wait" by junior Shon Meade
Founded in 1849 by the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, Waynesburg University is located on a traditional campus in the hills of southwestern Pennsylvania, with three additional sites located in the Pittsburgh region. The University is a member of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU) and is one of only 21 Bonner Scholar schools in the country, offering local, regional and international opportunities to touch the lives of others through service.

My Depression Was the Worst It Has Ever Been During My Pregnancy
What is a time of joy for many women was my darkest hour.
For the toddler who has everything (um, except a buff, toned bod?), introducing … CrossFit Kids! I only wish I were kidding. No, seriously, I WISH I WERE KIDDING, like, so much, because this story just makes me feel so hollow and despondent inside. But that's probably my own sh*t, so whatever; ignore me. Anyway, CrossFit Gantry in NYC's Long Island City (Crossfit being that crazy-extreme-mega-whoa exercise program that features intense routines like flipping tires, swinging kettlebells, and a superfluous amount of squats) is courting controversy by offering classes for kids as young as 3 years old. The classes last 45 minutes and incorporate traditional CF fare like overhead presses, lunges, and squats. (Thankfully no weights are used, because they clearly have SOME standards, OK?) Though plenty of parents are freaked out and pissed off by the existence of said classes, CrossFit Gantry's website promises that its kiddie classes offer serious benefits for the health and well-being of growing tots. The site claims their classes help kids build community and foster teamwork, as well as increasing "physical competence…promoting self esteem and cultivating leadership skills; develop critical thinking and memory."Instructor Michele Kelber told DNAInfo that kids "love" the classes. "[The] youngsters are often drawn to CrossFit because they want to work out the same way as mom or dad," she explained.
Other health experts have also applauded the program for its anti-obesity efforts (one in three U.S. kids is overweight, according to the latest stats) and its potential to help kids get "in shape" (?!) and "develop core strength" (?!?!?). Talking to NPR, Dr. Jordan Metzl, a sports medicine physician at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, said CF Kids makes young peoples' muscles "a lot stronger, and it is very helpful for them."
Of course, the regimen also helps rapidly growing toddlers and their proud parents learn about the critical -- but surprisingly delicate! -- art of spending lots of money. The classes cost $140 a month if taken once a week, or $280 a month for twice a week.Predictably, parents seem divided about the message the classes are sending to children. One Gawker commenter aptly summarized what I (and possibly everyone else who's read about this bizarro scheme) am thinking: "Just take the kids to the playground, people."Lisa Fogarty of The Stir also questions the usefulness of the classes, writing, "Simply allowing [kids] to run around like maniacs in the grass, throw and catch balls...seems far healthier to me than bringing them to a CrossFit and introducing them to the no pain, no gain mentality of adult workouts." Commenters didn't necessarily agree with her, though. "Ann" wrote, "I think this is an awesome idea. i see it as the same as karate, gymnastics, or ballet: a venue for kids to be active and experience a structured class environment." And another commenter noted, "I see no problem with exercise classes aimed at children... so long as the message that CHILDREN DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THEIR WEIGHT is made abundantly clear."
I'm not a parent, but I just don't fully get the point here. Of course physical activity is important, and there's something to be said for helping kids get in the habit of exercising early. But do they really need to hit a hardcore adult gym to do that? There are so many sports, games and fun outdoor activities kids have access to at that age; why not encourage them to try play-based exercise instead of learning the art of the perfect squat?
When I was a kid, I faintly remember preferring tap-dancing and gymnastics to lunges, thanks. (OK, so I don't think I actually tried lunges back then, probably because it was the '80s and the kookiest extent of childhood fitness pressure was "Get In Shape, Girl.") That said, there's probably/hopefully no real harm in these classes if they're conducted properly -- i.e., with a heavy emphasis on fun and health (not weight loss, plz). So I guess interested parents can just go ahead and shell out their hard-won bucks for their tots to keep squatting to their hearts' delight.
What do you guys think about the idea of gym workouts for toddlers? Would you ever send your kid to CrossFit?
I'm on Twitter here.

Van rentals are useful when we are shifting houses and we want a vehicle to shift our household items as well. There are trucks available for such shifting purposes too but these trucks have a bit too much space which actually end up in you paying for something which you have not utilized at all. Van rentals are the best options if you have very little furniture or other household items.
The charges by these van rentals are basically done in two ways. The first way is the hourly rate and the second way is based on the fuel consumption. Lots of people prefer the charges based on the fuel consumption as it is directly related to the distance covered. There are lots of companies which provide such van rentals and we would, in this article, have a look at some of the ways to find the best van rentals that are available in the market.
The best way to go about getting the best van rental is through the local home improvement stores. There would be a lot of home improvement stores in your neighborhood and finding one would not be that difficult. These home improvement stores would have these van rental services to offer themselves or they would be at least in touch with most of the service providers in the market. These people are in the home improvement industry therefore it is very unlikely that you would come across poor services offered by them. But if you still are not sure about the quality of the services, then it would be better to contact the bigger store or chains who can provide the expected quality.
If you do not want to go outside the comfort zones of your houses for getting van rental services, then you can do it from the comfort of your house itself. Just sit in front of your computer and get online. There would be lot of agencies who would be having information relating to such services in their databases. You would just have to feed in some information to find out whether the van service is available in your area or not at the preferred date and time. This is a much better way to find the van rental when compared to the improvement store method because there are lots of options that one could get in a short span of time and that too at the convenience of sitting at one's house.
Visiting a rental car agency would be another option. These agencies must be available in almost all the important cities. These people basically deal with car rentals but they also have vans for rent, most of them at least. The other best part of these car rental agencies is that one can talk to the concerned person directly and get all his doubts and questions relating to van car rentals cleared, if he has any. National Car rental, Budget car, etc. are some of the agencies that one can contact in this regard.

That's a good guess, but it's not right.
You could use the word "aborigine" to describe the
indigenous people of the Amazon, since it has a similar meaning as "indigenous."
Both refer to the original inhabitants of an area or country. But "Aborigine"
usually refers specifically to the original inhabitants of Australia. Using
the same word for other native peoples would be technically correct but
a little confusing.
Besides, the question was "what other people live
in the Amazon now, besides the indigenous peoples?" Why don't you try again?

Antitrust won't help Google's codec fight
Nowadays, Google is normally considered the next monopolist on the losing end of antitrust scrutiny. This month, Google is getting help from antitrust authorities in its uphill efforts to get VP8 video codec (and its WebM project) established against the dominant H.264 codec.
In January, Google announced plans to drop support for H.264 in its Chrome browser, nominally because of the H.264 patent royalties. Meanwhile, Google licenses VP8 and its associated patents with the claim that it's royalty free:
Please explain how WebM is "royalty-free."However, all Google can promise is that it won't charge royalties on VP8. It can't promise that its source codec doesn't infringe the patents of others: that's up to the patent holders to allege and (ultimately) for a court to decide. (Its policy is that people can't use WebM without licensing their own patents to WebM users.) The only way around third party patents would be for Google to indemnify users against these claims.
Some video codecs require content distributors and manufacturers to pay patent royalties to use the intellectual property within the codec. WebM and the codecs it supports (VP8 video and Vorbis audio) require no royalty payments of any kind. You can do whatever you want with the WebM code without owing money to anybody. For more information, see the License page.
Since MPEG LA is in the business of managing and licensing patent pools, including a pool of some 800 patents that read on H.264 (including 273 US patents and 469 Japanese patents) it has long expected that many of these patents could also be essential for implementation of VP8. So last month it asked all parties (both current and other licensors) to submit their patents for review. Needless to say, this brought squawking by Google and the usual anti-software patent crowd.
Now, the Wall Street Journal reported that the US Justice Department is looking to help Google in its efforts to resist MPEG LA patents:
Antitrust enforcers are investigating whether MPEG LA, or its members, are trying to cripple an alternative format called VP8 that Google released last year--by creating legal uncertainty over whether users might violate patents by employing that technology, these people added.The Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission start many more antitrust investigations than they bring to court. There is no per se legal problem if patent holders want to charge royalties to VP8 users, as long as they are on comparable terms to those charged to H.264 users. As the FTC antitrust website states:
Restraints in the supply chain are tested for their reasonableness, by analyzing the market in detail and balancing any harmful competitive effects against offsetting benefits. In general, the law views most vertical arrangements as beneficial overall because they reduce costs and promote efficient distribution of products. A vertical arrangement may violate the antitrust laws, however, if it reduces competition among firms at the same level (say among retailers or among wholesalers) or prevents new firms from entering the market.So the only problem is that MPEG LA wants to run the licensing business for both H.264 and VP8. Normally in competing standards (think Blu-ray vs. HD DVD) competing organizations run the patent pools. So while the DoJ will not find anything wrong with charging patent royalties for VP8, it might force MPEG LA to exercise greater transparency in royalties or even to spin off the VP8 pool efforts.
The research has clearly shown that patent pools increase the efficiency of patent collection for both licensors and licensees. (The only downside is that licensees might hope that without pools that would-be licensors might not bother to enforce royalties.)
If MPEG LA comes under pressure, I think it could easily solve the transparency problem by separating royalties into three piles: patents that apply both H.264 and VP8 (or WebM), those that apply to H.264 and those specific to VP8. If the terms for the first pile are the same for either standard, VP8 supporters would be hard-pressed to show any anti-competitive effects of the patent policy — other than their fantasy of releasing a patent-free codec.
All this kerfuffle over MPEG LA royalties ignores three other factors:
- the effect of the annual royalty cap (as with H.264) in making MPEG LA royalties negligible for large firms like Apple, Google or Microsoft
- as with any other standard, the existence of other patents that are not "essential" to the standard but may be commercially necessary
- Google's ability to use its own patent leverage (including those it acquired when it bought the WebM developer) to force a cross-license or non-assertion agreement by key patent holders

Cellserf, Candid Marketing join hands in mobile advertisingNovember 15th, 2007 - 12:47 pm ICT by admin
New Delhi, Nov 15 (ANI/Business Wire India): CellSerf ( www.cellserf.com ) and Candid Marketing ( www.candidmarketing.com ) joined hands today to enter the mobile advertising space.
CellSerf, a mobile media and technology company based out of New Delhi and Sunnyvale, CA, has partnered with Candid Marketing, a leading marketing services company, for developing the mobile advertising market and business in India.
CellSerf's founder Vishal Batra said, "As a highly innovative and leading promotional marketing services company in India, we see Candid Marketing as the ideal media partner for our Mobile VAS offerings. Their reach and reputation is unmatched and we would be able to leverage their experience in taking CellSerf's first-of-kind mobile media application to advertisers for non-intrusive custom-built sniper target solutions."
"With CellSerf mobile application, we are presenting advertisers a TV like advertising channel that is many times more personal and captive and importantly non intrusive, he added.
Candid Marketing is a division of IMSG Plc. ( www.imsg.co.uk ) with a presence in many of the high growth markets worldwide.
In India, Candid Marketing is a leading marketing services company and is widely regarded as the pioneer in innovative below-the-line marketing solutions.
With its offices in six major cities, Candid executes marketing and sales programs across more than 120 cities for most major international brands with a presence in India.
The recently launched CellSerf mobile application optimises advertising spends by offering a variety of options for the advertisers to connect with the end users.
It offers the advertisers better return for their money by offering targeted advertising on a pay-per-view basis on the very intimate mobile medium.
The advertisers can choose their target viewers based on the user's demographic information, and current interests. The advertiser can present video, audio, picture and text advertisements served on the mobile handset along with a surety that the user has viewed the ad.
Further, advertisers may choose the pricing models, between CPC (cost-per-click) and CPM (cost-per-million), depending on the nature of its business and marketing campaign.
To add more teeth to the application CellSerf combines Multimedia Instant Messaging, Global Multimedia Mobile Messaging and Multimedia Email that allows mobile users to go beyond the traditional style of communicating in text and leverage the mobile phone's multimedia capabilities to exchange video, pictures and voice messages.
The application and service is free to use. The mobile advertising solution is integrated with mobile IM, messaging and email applications to offer targeted multimedia advertisements to end users.
Candid Marketing's founder and CEO Atul S Nath said, "CellSerf has all the applications to keep young mobile users engaged and connected with their friends and family. This presents itself as an outstanding opportunity for advertisers to interact with customers. To the advertiser we are offering a novel, cost-effective and most importantly interactive medium to communicate with customers."
Candid Marketing's Vice President Harsh Sisodia said, "CellSerf is the Swiss-knife of mobile applications as it offers connectivity through instant messaging, email and mobile messaging all-in-one". In between a user sending and receiving messages and emails, advertisements, intuitive communication and response-oriented interaction is facilitated with the user in a non-intrusive way.
With its incomparable penetration in India, the mobile phone as a medium is bigger than any other. There are more mobile phone users than TV viewers and newspaper readers today.
The mobile has replaced traditional cameras as the preferred way to capture pictures and record videos. Mobile handsets are preferred for listening to music today and have become a truly personal medium to reach out to customers.
"With the CellSerf mobile application, we are offering our clients a new and exciting medium for reaching out to customers. Today, the penetration of mobiles in India is tremendous and with CellSerf we are allowing our clients an opportunity to touch each and every one of them in a way that will bring them maximum returns for advertising money", said Harsh.

[ 화웨이 P9 (Huawei P9) /폰아레나]
The Huawei P9 was announced to much fanfare as the first smartphone co-engineered with the iconic camera brand Leica. As such, Huawei's new flagship phone comes with the mission to "reinvent smartphone photography", and its camera setup is looking quite intriguing.
On its back we see a dual-camera affair comprised of two 12MP snappers – one takes photos in color, while the other shoots monochrome images in greater detail. The increased light sensitivity of the camera tandem should result in outstanding low-light performance.
Cameras aside, the Huawei P9 shines with its premium design. It is built of aerospace-grade aluminum with rounded edges for greater comfort and is available in several striking colors, including Haze Gold and Ceramic White. A potent hardware setup and a long-lasting battery complete the package.

Spotlight: Galway Press
Who Says The Western Is Dead?
Galway Press is Oghma Creative Media's western imprint, publishing novels or thematic short story collections embodying the culture of the western United States. These stories have themes of open country, unforgiving nature, struggles to survive and settle the land, freedom from authority, cooperation with fellow adventurers, and other experiences that human beings encounter in the frontier. Traditional westerns are set left of the Mississippi River and between the end of the American Civil War and the turn of the twentieth century. But the western isn't limited to that time. The essence, though, is openness and struggle. These are happening now as much as they were in the years gone by.
Eight new Galway titles will hit bookshelves in wide release over the next twelve months, most available in hardcover, mass media paperback and e-book. With his popular Brandiron series, living legend Dusty Richards anchors a growing stable of established and emerging western authors including Velda Brotherton, Darrel Sparkman, J.B. Hogan, and Gordon Bonnet, among others. Sparkman will launch his exciting new western/frontier series this week with the release of Spirit Trail, while Brotherton will usher in her new western historical romance series with Montana Promises in July. Meanwhile, The Ranch Boss himself will continue his prolific ways with the re-release of his seminal rodeo work, The Natural, in March, and new additions to the Brandiron—The Texas Badge and The Cherokee Strip—in June and September.
Galway's not just about novels, though. Don't forget our flagship publication, the quarterly e-magazine, Saddlebag Dispatches, available in March, June, September, and December. Chocked full of news, short stories, serials, history, nonfiction, travel spotlights, and columns, you'll get a heaping helping of western culture in every issue.
Want to join the posse? Galway is currently accepting submissions. Check out our submission guidelines page and shoot us a message.

Feature Auction: Something a little less Cote-d'Ordinary
Oakridge, Yarra Valley
As prices for Meursault, Puligny, Chassagne et al creep inexorably upwards many of us are forced to look elsewhere for that Burgundy thrill. Luckily for us all we're delighted to have got our hands on a tiny parcel of a serious alternative which we're offering at 30% less than the next best UK price! As an Burgophile MW recently wrote of this wine 'I'd love to get the Roulot crowd to try this.'.
Jancis Robinson has also cited the winery in question in an article entitled 'The New Pulignys of Australia) (available here) and does also say that 'If you are familiar with the finest Meursaults, Montrachets and Chablis, you may think I have taken leave of my senses. But as a wild generalisation, at the moment I am finding more life, interest and certainly value in the best of the new generation of Australian Chardonnays than I am in the great bulk of white burgundies (which tend to cost at least as much). Nor am I alone. Mark Davidson, Wine Australia's global education manager, has had great fun listening to top American sommeliers confusing these wines with some of Burgundy's finest.'
The winery in question won '2011 Winery of the Year in Australia in 'The Age & Sydney Morning Herald' and in 2014 Australian expert Philip Rich Australian Financial Review said of the grower that 'David Bicknell is arguably Australia's greatest Chardonnay producer..'
We've filled our boots here at Bid for Wine so sadly there are very limited quantities of these wines. They will both be perfect for serious Christmas drinking so don't delay if you want some..! We can of course arrange delivery with anything you might buy in the December BfW online sale or the Dreweatts/BfW Live sale on 2nd December.

I'm about to buy a 2204 picoscope and I have two questions:
- Will PicoLog be available for Vista 64 bit ? (in what period of time?)
- Can PicoLog run under a Virtual Machine with WindowsXP [ like Virtual PC or VMWare ] with the USB 2204 PicoScope ?

The Pittsburgh Penguins have played 21 games this season with the 22nd coming tonight in Florida against the Panthers. With one quarter of the season already in the books, the Pens (11-8-2) are in second place in the Atlantic Division, four points behind the Philadelphia Flyers.
In their last five games, the Penguins have posted a 4-0-1 record and Marc-Andre Fleury appears to have broken out of the slump he was mired in to start the season.
Let's take a deeper look at the first quarter of the season and start handing out some grades.
It's hard to argue against the Pens having one of the top offenses in the league with the likes of Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin on the roster.
The Pens have scored 64 goals this season, which is tied for sixth most in the league. However, given that not every team has played 21 games, it's only fair to take into consideration the average goals scored per game. In that regard, the Pens are tied for seventh with 3.05 goals per game.
However, it's not just Sid and Geno doing all the work. Seven different Penguins already have at least 10 points on the season, while two others have nine.
Not to mention, the defense has been figuring into just about every goal the Penguins score. Pens blueliners have tallied an impressive 51 points combined this season.
Kris Letang is leading the way with 18 points (three goals, 15 assists), while Alex Goligoski has 11 points (four goals, seven assists) and newly acquired Paul Martin has 10 points (one goal, nine assists).
Chris Kunitz has the most points of any Pens forward not named Crosby or Malkin with 12 (seven goals, five assists).
Grade: B+
On any given night, this team can explode and bury multiple goals in mere seconds. What remains to be seen is if the defense will continue to produce this much. If they don't, guys like Pascal Dupuis, Max Talbot, Tyler Kennedy and Mark Letestu are going to need to pick up the slack.
Pittsburgh is 15th in the league in goals allowed after digging 57 pucks out of their own cage this season. Again, it's not a fair estimate. Those 57 goals against translate into a 2.71 goals against average, which is 11th best in the NHL.
The Boston Bruins lead the way in this category, having allowed 33 goals in 18 games for an average of 1.83 per game.
Fleury would probably like to forget the first part of the season. There are some observers out there who believe every puck that ends up in the net is somehow the goaltender's fault. That's an argument for another day and I can promise it will be addressed when the time is right. If I had a nickel for every time I've had to explain why a goal wasn't a goaltender's fault this season, I'd be writing this from my beach-front mansion in Fiji.
For the time-being, let's just say that overall, the Pens' team effort on defense was shaky for most of the first quarter of the season.
Part of the sloppy defensive play may be due to the number of injuries the Pens had to deal with early on. Brooks Orpik, Zbynek Michalek, Kris Letang, Alex Goligoski have all either missed time or have been dinged up. Early on this season ,we were lucky to see the same six guys in the lineup from night to night.
Grade: C+
I'm not taking into consideration the offensive upside of the Pens' defensemen into this grade. This is solely based on the defensive aspect of the game and the golden scoring chances allowed in most games this season. The Pens allow the fewest shots against per game (27.1), but one or two defensive breakdowns can cost you a game.
For as bad as Fleury's start to the season was, Brent Johnson's was off-the-charts incredible.
Johnson (6-2-1, 2.11 GA, .927 save percentage) started the season 5-0-1 and was rock solid in every game. The lone blemish to start the season was a 1-0 overtime loss to the St. Louis Blues on Oct. 23.
In his last three starts, Johnson is 1-2 and has allowed 12 goals.
However, Fleury(5-6-1, 2.95 GAA, .883 save percentage) has stepped up his game and is looking like the goaltender than backstopped the Pens to the 2009 Stanley Cup title. His positioning has been much better and his rebound control is much improved. He's seeing pucks better and is coming up with key saves at key times in the game.
The good sign is that while one goaltender has struggled, the other has stepped in and helped to win games.
Grade: B-
Johnson did an admirable job early on this season and has shown why he's a valuable veteran backup goaltender in the NHL. However, it's no secret that this is Fleury's team and he will need to continue to shine if the Pens have hopes of winning a fourth Stanley Cup this season.
Does it even need to be said? Ok, here it goes.
The power play has been the Pens' Achilles heel all year long. The one aspect of the game where you can throw out guys like Malkin, Crosby, Letang, Goligoski, Kunitz, etc. should strike fear into the opponents.
However, for obvious reasons, other teams are shutting down the Pens' power play with regularity.
Pittsburgh is 25th in the league (13.5 percent) with the man-advantage. Only the Flyers have more power play chances (97) than the Pens (96), but Pittsburgh only has 13 power play goals.
One of the alarming issues is the tendency for everyone to defer to Crosby and Malkin. Not that it isn't understandable, but at some point, someone needs to start blasting away from all angles.
You can't score if you don't get pucks to the net and the Pens' power play has proven that old adage enough this season. The power play is predictable, despite the addition of a guy like Goligoski roaming around the zone all the time.
In theory, it's a great strategy. Movement keeps the penalty killers and the opposing goaltender guessing. If everyone starts hammering shots on net, as a penalty killer how do you guard against it? The time to start faking shots is once you have the opposition believing that any Pens player could unleash a twine-seeking missile at any time.
One other observation: the Pens are looking for the "Ryan Whitney Play" far too often on the power play. Just keep it simple. Put the puck on net and crash for the rebound.
Grade: F
With the amount of offensive talent the Pens have, this power play has no business being near the bottom of the league.
I must say, I have been blown away by how great the penalty kill has been and Jordan Staal hasn't appeared in a single game yet this season.
Craig Adams may not score a lot of goals, but is there another guy on this team that you would want out there killing penalties in Staal's absence?
Matt Cooke and Talbot continue to be solid penalty killers and the newly acquired shot blocking extraordinaire Michalek is as advertised.
The Pens are fourth in the league killing penalties at an 88.5 percent rate. Last year, Pittsburgh finished 9th in the league (84.1 percent).
One aspect of the Pens' game that needs improvement is the number of penalties taken. Despite being shorthanded 87 times (fourth most in the league), the Pens have only allowed 10 goals.
Grade: A
As stated before, this penalty killing effort hasn't had the services of Staal, who is one of the best in the league, which gives them the easy A here.
Overall, the first 21 games could have gone better. However, the team has played much better of late and guys like Crosby, Malkin and Fleury are heating up. Hopefully, it's a sign of things to come and we can chalk up the slow start to the time needed for the new additions to learn the system.

When I was heating the soup on the stove the smell brought me back to my parents' kitchen as a kid and I wished we had some crackers to crumble on top. I'm not sure how I associate chicken noodle soup with crackers as I'm fairly certain I was a soup purist growing up.
When the soup was warm, I ladled it into Little M's elephant bowl with the suction bottom and took a taste to check the temp. Then I added an ice cube. Then I added another. When I finally served my little guy, chicken noodle soup proved to be a challenging choice.
Little M is 21 months old and while he's skilled at eating yogurt with a spoon, soup was a whole new challenge. I tried giving him the broth in a cup, with a straw, in a sippy. Nothing worked. Finally I emptied the broth and just let my gluten sensitive kid eat broth-soaked noodles. With his hands. Good news is he's growing out of the gluten sensitivity. And the warm lunch helped his stuffy nose.
While he ate/accidentally dropped noodles all over the floor I went to Campbell's Kitchen to check out the Wisest Kid page featuring some kid-friendly recipes using chicken noodle soup, guaranteed to make my kid happy. The mini chicken pot pies look pretty delicious and like a much easier way for a toddler to eat chicken noodle soup. Those may be making an appearance in our house this winter when the next cold hits.
There are several kid friendly recipes on the Campbell's Wisest Kid page, definitely worth a peek. And for fun they feature a widget were you can share the wisest wisdom from your kids. Little M's contribution to the wisdom? "Hot, hot." Check out this widget and share the "wise" things your kids say.
What's the wisest thing your kid has said recently. Is there anything wiser than "hot, hot"?

E4 Respondent choices
If only one method is stated in E3, above, what consideration has been given to offering respondents a choice in how they provide their answers (eg phone, fax, mail, Web/Internet)? (E4)
Return to top
E5 Questionnaire testing
What testing of the questionnaire(s) has (have) taken place? (E5)
The survey was sent to five test companies from 4 April to 8 April 2003, of which three surveys were returned in the required timeframe (the other surveys will be collected subsequently). The returned surveys were analysed, and then a follow-up telephone call made to survey participants to obtain further feedback on survey design.
As a result of this feedback some minor changes were made to the survey. These changes involved removal of one question due to difficulty in providing an answer, simplifying questions requiring a lot of detail into a single question requiring only total estimates (questions 9 and 16 in the current version), incorporating additional background information at the beginning of the survey, removing unnecessary information throughout the survey, and rearranging questions so that similar information is collected, but in a less time consuming way. A couple of questions were also added to obtain a more complete picture of the relationship between the mining industry and local indigenous communities.
Overall test respondents were able to sufficiently answer the questionnaire, provided positive feedback on the survey design, and were enthusiastic in participating in the survey process.
This stage is yet to be completed, but will be as soon as possible.

Fugly Israelis
"In a city of broken hearts and broken buildings, the blue-and-white flag of a foreign country has become a symbol of kindness and compassion. 'When I got here I didn't know whose hospital it was and couldn't figure out what language people were talking,' says Beli Madar, waiting on a bench as her father has his leg amputated, after getting caught in earthquake rubble. The big-hearted military field hospital, for most Nepalese here, is the first they have seen of Israel. It's a place where the Israeli army uniform worn by all staff stands for something very different to the fighting it's become associated with, and where hospital directors who are used to valet service and standing ovations at conferences slum down in tiny tents to perform frontline medicine..." (Israel: Saving lives, bringing hope to Nepal, The Australian Jewish News, 8/5/15)
OK, OK, OK, enough already!
That, of course, is how Israel tries to distract us from "the broken hearts and broken buildings" of the Gaza Strip, broken - again and again and again - by those wearing the same army uniform and flying the same blue-and-white flag flaunted in post-earthquake Nepal.
And when the world's 'most moral army' has had its fill of breaking hearts and bones and buildings in Gaza (or kicking heads in the West Bank), many from its ranks choose to roam the world, 'letting off steam', and giving the rest of the planet an inkling of what it must be like for the Palestinians of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem.**
When even nice Australian Jewish girls like Nicola Lipman feel they have to take their Israeli 'brothers and sisters' to task for their behaviour abroad, you know something's rotten in the state of Israel:
"I am a Jewish backpacker from Australia traveling through Israel as a part of a round-the-world adventure... However, now that I am here, I would like to have a heart-to-heart conversation with you, my backpacker friend from Israel. Yossi, Yonni, Yael... I'm not sure of your name, but I think you know who you are... Maybe you have just finished the army and are feeling tough enough to take on the world. At least, I hope you are, because you might not like some of the things I have to say. But what I am going to tell you, I assure you, is out of love... With tens of thousands of you out there backpacking at any one time and interacting with countless other backpackers (who are all writing home to their friends), a lot of people are getting the wrong impression about this country.... And those travelers may well go on to be the next politicians or business leaders of their countries - people who we all hope will adopt a positive stance towards Israel. So, Yossi, Yonni, Yael... or whatever your name is, next time you walk over to someone else's hammock, or open your mouth to yell at someone else out there who is just trying to make a living, please think about the impression you are creating and the potential impact on your country. There is enough negative press out there without Israelis giving themselves a bad reputation." (A message to my ugly brother, Nicola Lipman, ynetnews.com, 28/5/06)
Now you'd think Nicola might have twigged to the bleeding obvious connection between Israeli troops throwing their weight around in the occupied Palestinian territories, and the same mob, after swapping guns for backpacks, throwing their weight around in places such as South America and India. But no, she's obviously been inoculated against the bleeding obvious by a good, old-fashioned Zionist upbringing and/or education.
At any rate, what I really found interesting was not so much Nicola's 'message' to her fugly Israeli 'brothers and sisters', but some of the comments in the thread which followed it, so revealing are they of a society which has lived with its boot on the neck of another people for almost 50 years now:
"Working in the Israeli hotel industry in the past, I can relate to the article. Many Israeli tourists staying in Jerusalem hotels often leave enough trash in their rooms to fill 5 large trash bags (this is only after a weekend stay), steal countless towels (that were taken from the maid's cart).Anything on the maid's trolley is fair game: soap, shampoo, anything the maid found (even if left in the chambermaid's closet), sheets, pillow cases, pillows, bed covers, remote controls, even silverware from room service. The Israeli guests usually stay in the room till 11 or 12, hindering the cleaning process, then arrive back at 2 or 3 expecting everything to be cleaned 'tip top', or let you clean while the room is still occupied and instruct you on how to clean. The list goes on... and to top this off not one tip is left! (12. I can relate, Jerusalem, Israel)
"Yet again, another reason why I left Israel. A country totally devoid of human decency. It's nice to hear that they're bringing their special brand of hospitality to the rest of the world." (16. Israelis are nightmares, Jennifer, New York)
"Hate to make generalizations, but the behavior of most Israelis was the major reason why I didn't like Israel when I first went to live there, and I'm going back quite a number of years ago. That feeling never left me. Most of the Israelis I had met in New York were darn obnoxious, but I decided that should not deter me. After all, it couldn't be that these people represented Israeli society in general. How very wrong I was. It was this air of superiority that Israelis were better than everyone else, and in Israeli society, most Israeli Jews do consider themselves better than those who are not Jews. Israeli Jews even have the attitude that they are better than any Jew from anywhere else, especially Americans. I recall how Americans were typically called lazy, that they didn't have to work hard etc. I've traveled a lot and Israel was my great disappointment, also because of the racist attitudes that went along with their obnoxiousness. Yes, there are certainly decent Israelis who are not obnoxious or racist, but very few that I know of. (27. Hate to make generalizations, but, Marlene, New York)
OK, it's one thing for non-Israeli Jews to complain about fugly Israelis, but what if a Palestinian tries it?
"To the author, why don't you come and see how Israelis treat the native Palestinians? Why don't you come and visit Palestine and see the ugliest occupation on earth? Why don't you check on us and see how [Israeli] soldiers humiliate us? We are human beings, deserving to live with dignity in our own homeland. I've dealt with Israelis all my life. Good ones when [they]exist [are] afraid to stand up to bad ones. In all of the places I've visited, whenever I bargained [for] a deal, someone would say sh*t are you a Jew? I heard it many times in the EU and US." (36. Sad but true, Atmawi, Historic Palestine)
OMG, Atmawi, now you've done it!
"The day when you will not feel 'humiliated' anymore is coming soon. It is coming - the day for you to go and live in your right place, among your own, far from Israel. It is coming, the day when you will leave our Land and finally finish your ugly occupation of it. It is near, this day, B"H!" (37. Atmawi, Keren, Sao Paulo)
"Oh, because your brethren are so refined and civilized with your honor killings (don't like lil sister's boyfriend - 'humiliates' your pathetic male penial pride in your crap patriarchal society because she won't marry your mate, Ali - strangle her and shove her down the well), and firing guns in the air at weddings, shooting a few people together. And that is not to mention suicide bombs and wandering around jumping up and down like lunatics after 9/11 singing Ya Osama Ya Chabib. But I suppose I don't understand your culture. Mind you, lots of things can have culture - including rot and mould." (38. Atmawi, The Rational World)
Now what was the AJN saying about those wonderful Israelis in Nepal?

Soon the doves will fly between Israelis and Arabs:
"On April 15, 2014, then Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Tel Aviv is holding secret talks with some Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, in an effort to create diplomatic relations to unite against Iran.
"There are contacts, there are talks, but we are very close to the stage in which within a year or 18 months it will no longer be secret, it will be conducted openly," Lieberman said, Hebrew-language Yedioth Ahronoth reported.
The newspaper also quoted the Israeli minister as saying that some new "peace" accords between Israel and Arab states would be signed in 2019."

Expect Michael Gawenda to stand up against these "racist views" and accuse YnetNews of "journalistic failure" any time now. Oh wait, Gawenda might think YNet is a great paper just as he thinks fellow Iraq war propagandist and an Israeli prison guard Jeffrey Goldberg is a reputable investigative journalist unlike, say, John Pilger:

Years ago a Nepalese trekking guide told me his most difficult clients were groups of young Israelis. He said they were often arrogant, ignored advice and directions, knew it all and sometimes put themselves and others in danger. He blamed their attitude on their indoctrination and activities whilst in the Israeli military.

Stats for the uPG and IHD as they've appeared on Tipify
uPGaming have some pretty good results recently. They took a map off of KeyD, beat KeyD on one map, and almost got double digits. When you compare this to IHaveADream's results (nothing…) it's pretty impressive. KeyD and AT both are pretty strong in their scene.
tchekA is by far uPG's best player, he consistently top frags for them. Soulzor is also usually up there. Looking at recent results, they seem to have a really strong cache, along with a decent inferno.
I think uPG is favored by a bit here, we have their good recent results to go off of. They seem strong enough to warrant a small bet from me, but be careful before we know just how IHD will play. I wouldn't go more than medium on them here.
