Her eyes infected and merely skin covering bone, my Bobcat hybrid was near death, abandoned and left to die in temperatures she was barely able to endure when she found me. She literally cried out for help.
On my way to the mini mart behind the school where I took Tai Chi, I heard a soft mew. At that time I had a yard full of "throw aways" I fed and thought I heard cats everywhere. Without my glasses, I thought I was imagining her cry.
On my way back, she cried for me again and this time I began a search for the sound. It was then I found her, sitting on top of a car hood (the building behind the school was an auto body shop), eyes so infected they were closed (to this day she has vision problems), and her bones protruding through the skin.
Everyone at the school made a fuss over her, giving her food and milk, and I cleaned out her eyes.
During class, she wandered around. One of the guys said, "So, Andrea, what are you going to name your cat?" "She's not mine," I answered. "My husband said 'no more'."
As she walked to each person, they petted and spoke to her and when she came to me, I did the same and she mewed loudly and yowled.
My classmate said, "Not your cat huh?" She came home with me and I named her Wah Lum after the type of Tai Chi I was taking and to this day is MY baby.
I am an author and due to her "show off" personality, have written two stories about her. Being half Bobcat (which I suspect is why she was abandoned) she is full of fire!

Known for its opulent and extravagantly designed pieces, Boucheron is one of the favourite jewellery houses of the rich and famous. The house has been around for over 150 years and has been an innovator in many respects. It was one of the fist jewellery makers to introduce fragrances for women and men into its line of products. Now you have the opportunity to buy some of the best perfumes of the brand at cheap stockist prices while you are enjoying online shopping.
The jewellery house was founded in 1858 in Paris by Frederic Boucheron. The pieces of the house gained quick popularity with the Parisian elite. The house won its first international recognition in 1867. It earned a Gold Medal at the Exposition Universelle, the second world fair which was held in the capital of France.
In 1893, the jewellery house was the first business to move to the now famous Place Vandome. Rumour has it that the designer picked the sunniest spot on the square so that the diamonds on his shop's window would shine even more brightly and attract customers even more powerfully. In the same year, Boucheron became an international brand with the opening of a shop in Moscow.
Royalties have always been the major clients of the House of Boucheron. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the Russian Royal Family bought a number of spectacular pieces including a corsage embellished with 6 gorgeous diamond bows which could be detached from the garment. Jewellery pieces made by the house have been passed in the British Royal Family for years. Queen Elizabeth II has her own collection of pieces created by the house.
Boucheron has preserved its traditions in fine jewellery making but has introduced modern, innovative and artistic designs as well. Their iconic snake line from the 1970's is of the most revered. It is widely recognised for its striking lines and exotic appeal. Since 2000, the brand has launched a number of spectacular collections including Cinna Pampilles and Not Bourgeois. Some of their latest and greatest lines include Jaipur, Trouble and Cabinet of Curiosities.
At present, Boucheron has a line of luxury watches and a fragrance line. In 2006, the house introduced the first ever cell phone made from gold and diamonds created in collaboration with Vertu. Only 26 pieces were made.
Now the brand has over 20 successful fragrances. The first perfume of the brand was the fragrance for women called simply Boucheron. It was launched in 1989. The version for men came out in 1991. During the 1990's, the brand introduced a number of classy fragrances - Jaipur and Jaipur Saphir for women and Jaipur Homme for men.
The glam Trouble line of perfumes for women was started in 2004. The Jaipur Homme line was continued in the same year as well. Many fragrances for women and men have been added to main line of perfumes of the brand since 2000. Some of their latest creations which you should certainly consider are B, Jaipur Bracelet and Boucheron Femme Eau de Parfum 2012.

3-ingredient Nutella Truffles
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, read my disclosure policy.
Holy cow. Easy 3-ingredient Nutella Truffles. Because sometimes you just need chocolate, am I right?
Jordan's in the 5th grade this year, and 5th graders get to join the band. I was kind of shocked that music still existed in the public school system, but she was all excited when she brought home the flyer. I was excited too, remembering back to my clarinet playing days.
The kids had just a few instruments to choose from and Jordan picked the violin. Lord help us all.
I'm sort of kidding, I love how the violin sounds…when the Dixie Chicks play. So I'm sure a 10 year old who totally pays attention to everything teachers say will play and sound just fine. Right?
It really doesn't matter how it sounds though, it's supposed to be fun. I expect her to enjoy herself right up until Tuesday night after the first session…when they remind her to practice for 20 minutes every day.
20 minutes of violin practice vs 20 minutes of watching daily routines on YouTube. Hmmm….I'm really not sure which one will win.
Something that will win and is way easier than playing violin? These Nutella Truffles. Oh my gosh, y'all. You can make them when you don't even have a kitchen. #truth
(Seriously, I'm wondering what conversations the construction guys are having at lunch. "What is that chick doing? Why is she running a food processor in her office? Why is she standing on a chair taking pictures of food? Is she jonesing for chocolate that much?")
Yes, yes I am jonesing for chocolate that much that I need to make truffles no matter what. Especially when those truffles are made of just 3 ingredients: Nutella, Oreos, and chocolate.
I'm sure by now you've all seen that 3-ingredient Nutella Brownie video that's going around on Facebook. I've actually seen that recipe making the rounds on blogs for awhile. I've never tried it but it looks really good and last week I was craving it. The problem is I don't have an oven and I'm afraid to bake in my toaster oven. What's a girl to do?
Hint: Make a No-Bake version of a 3-ingredient Nutella recipe!!
I decided to combine my love of Nutella with my love of Oreo truffles (you know, the Oreo + cream cheese recipe.) But instead of cream cheese, I used Nutella. And if you don't like chocolate hazelnut spread, you can use any chocolate spread out there. Hershey's, Reese's, and some peanut butter companies all make versions. You could even use Golden Oreos!
All you need for this recipe are Oreos, Nutella or other chocolate spread, melting chocolate (for dipping), and a food processor. That's it!
A few notes about this recipe:
- Let the cookies and Nutella process for awhile, at least a minute depending on your food processor. It'll start to form a ball, that's how you know it's done.
- The batter was quite soft when it was done processing. I scooped out 1 tablespoon balls of truffle dough and chilled them for an hour until they were firm enough to dip. If you find that your mixture is too soft to scoop, chill it for 15 minutes, then scoop it, then chill it again.
- I prefer to use melting chocolate for dipping truffles because it melts easier than chocolate chips (no seizing) and dries better. You can buy melting chocolate, like Candiquik or almond bark, in the baking aisle. I melted 8 ounces but used about 6 ounces. It's better to melt more than you think you'll need! See my how to dip truffles without crying post for tips!
- These truffles taste better than the beginning violin sounds. In case you were wondering!
Enjoy! I sure did. 🙂
3 ingredient Nutella Truffles
These EASY Nutella Truffles have only 3 ingredients. They're fast to assemble using a food processor and they're rich, fudgy, and oh-so-chocolatey! Perfect for an indulgent treat or gift!
- 20 Oreo cookies
- 5 tablespoons Nutella (or other chocolate spread)
- 6-8 ounces melting chocolate (such as Candiquik or almond bark)
- Sprinkles, optional
- Place Oreos and Nutella in a food processor. Process until a smooth mixture remains and a ball starts to form while the processor is running. This will take at least a minute, depending on your food processor.
- If truffle mixture is too soft to roll, chill for 15 minutes. Otherwise, scoop 1 tablespoon balls of truffle dough onto a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Chill at least one hour. (I do not recommend chilling the mixture that long until after you've scooped the truffles. It becomes hard and hard to scoop, so if you need to chill the dough first, just do it about 15 minutes, then scoop, then chill again.)
- Melt chocolate according to package directions. I like to use melting chocolate like Candiquik and almond bark because it's easier to melt and won't seize like chocolate chips often does. You can find this chocolate in the regular baking aisle. My chocolate melted in about 1-1/2 minutes on high power, and I stirred it every 30 seconds.
- Dip each truffle in the chocolate, tap off excess, and place back on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sprinkles, if desired. Chill to set. Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
You don't have to use Nutella for this recipe - you can use any chocolate spread. There are so many brands now, right at your regular grocery store. IMPORTANT: if you're using another brand of chocolate spread, start by adding 3 tablespoons of it instead of 5, then work up to 5 as needed. You may need more than 5 tblsp - not every brand of chocolate has the same amount of oils, etc., and may cause different consistency and need a different amount used.

Automobile Accident Attorney in Vancouver, Washington
Nearly 34,000 people died in the United States last year as a result of a motor vehicle crash.
Thousands of injuries and fatalities occur on Oregon, Washington and California roads and highways each year. Innocent people die or are seriously injured at the hands of negligent drivers who speed, ignore signs, are distracted by cell phones, or are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Insurance companies for the at-fault driver usually ask car accident victims to sign a monetary settlement – and sign it quickly. A quick settlement, or one that you are asked to sign before your injuries are fully understood, benefits the insurance company at your expense.
It is your legal right to have an attorney review the documents presented to you by an insurance company before you sign.
Oregon, Washington and California all have time limits to recover your damages from an automobile accident. Once this time has elapsed, it may be impossible to recover any of your medical bills or other expenses. Furthermore, evidence and memories lapse over time. The sooner you contact an attorney, the better the chance that a lawyer can help you.
It can be very difficult to discuss making a claim if someone you love has died in an accident. All of the attorneys and staff at D'Amore Law Group will treat you with the respect and care that you deserve. Tom D'Amore and his team of injury attorneys are experienced in bringing wrongful death claims and lawsuits across the Pacific Northwest.
An experienced and well-respected attorney, Tom D'Amore was the 2010-2011 President of the Oregon Trial Lawyers Association, and serves on the Board of Governors of the American Association for Justice (AAJ). He has served as AAJ's Chair of the Motor Vehicle Collision Section, and as Chair of AAJ's Audit Committee. Tom is licensed to practice in Oregon, Washington and California. D'Amore Law Group has meeting locations in Vancouver, Washington – contact the firm for a free consultation.

Rams is credited by many to be the father of modern Industrial Design, having taken inspiration from the earlier Bauhaus masters and refined their somewhat hand-crafted aesthetic to the point that it was ready for production across an industrialized scale. As head designer at Braun, a German consumer goods giant, Rams designs flooded the European market for nearly forty years from 1961 to 1995.
|Rams with some of his designs
To this day, European design in general is of a much higher quality and of a more refined standard than what is found in the rest of the "modern" world, and it could be argued this is in large part due to the influence of one man's prodigious output. From hair dryers to coffee machines to foil razors, alarm clocks, and electric juicers, the variety, affordability, utility and prevalence of his Braun merchandise sub-consciously shaped an entire continent's design philosophy.
Rams' "10 Principles of Good Design"
Good design:
- Is innovative - The possibilities for innovation are not, by any means, exhausted. Technological development is always offering new opportunities for innovative design. But innovative design always develops in tandem with innovative technology, and can never be an end in itself.
- Makes a product useful - A product is bought to be used. It has to satisfy certain criteria, not only functional, but also psychological and aesthetic. Good design emphasizes the usefulness of a product whilst disregarding anything that could possibly detract from it.
- Is aesthetic - The aesthetic quality of a product is integral to its usefulness because products are used every day and have an effect on people and their well-being. Only well-executed objects can be beautiful.
- Makes a product understandable - It clarifies the product's structure. Better still, it can make the product clearly express its function by making use of the user's intuition. At best, it is self-explanatory.
- Is unobtrusive - Products fulfilling a purpose are like tools. They are neither decorative objects nor works of art. Their design should therefore be both neutral and restrained, to leave room for the user's self-expression.
- Is honest - It does not make a product more innovative, powerful or valuable than it really is. It does not attempt to manipulate the consumer with promises that cannot be kept.
- Is long-lasting - It avoids being fashionable and therefore never appears antiquated. Unlike fashionable design, it lasts many years – even in today's throwaway society.
- Is thorough down to the last detail - Nothing must be arbitrary or left to chance. Care and accuracy in the design process show respect towards the consumer.
- Is environmentally friendly - Design makes an important contribution to the preservation of the environment. It conserves resources and minimizes physical and visual pollution throughout the lifecycle of the product.
- Is as little design as possible - Less, but better – because it concentrates on the essential aspects, and the products are not burdened with non-essentials. Back to purity, back to simplicity.
|Braun KF20 Aromaster - Rams design
OK, so not all of these commandments are represented in the MkIV, particularly the first – innovation. With a beam rear axle, rubbery dynamics and some pretty ancient engine technology near the bottom of the spec sheets, it was hardly bursting with exciting new technology. But where it counted, the car was a near masterpiece of design. It was clean, timeless, functional, unadorned, rational, unobtrusive, honest, thorough and simple.
There are many examples on the car(s) that stand out as shining examples of good design, from the functional simplicity and architectural arrangement of the interior, to the high-quality materials used in its construction. One in particular has always stood out to me, though – the way the shut line of the rear passenger doors of the five-door Golf is aped by the shut line of the hatch, continued visually downward in the shape of the rear light cluster where it meets at a flush angle with the side bumper seam – three distinct parts combined in one meandering line, simultaneously lowering production costs and highlighting the most interesting and perceptible element of design on the car.
At least we still have Apple.

A workaholic is one who has, according to the dictionary again, a compulsive and unrelenting need to work. In the Father's case, unlike the modern workaholic, who is under pressure for considerations of material or other advantages, the compulsion was from within. Service for a cause was the catalyst that accentuated Fr. Gabriel's urge for unrelenting hard work. He was rather systematic, careful about taking everyone concerned with him, punctual and on schedule about time manage- ment and strict about efficacy standards. Quite considerate and plucky by instinct, the Father when required, proved rather capable of being a very hard task master. This rare combination makes him an effortlessly effective genius at man management....... And an ajatha shatru too.
A Satvic is the person with the quality or capability of synchronizing his mind, speech and actions (manasa, vacha, karmana). Fr. Gabriel has demonstrated the harmony existing between his action and thoughts or dreams by realising them for all there to witness. The absolute lack of duality in his personality is the most impressive trait that one will experience inRev. Fr. Gabriel. Though the achievements of the Father are mostly on a mundane level, the thoughts, the imagination et al that preceded them and led to them have an unspeakable fluffy or etherian aura about them ! The Father brought them to tangible form in thought and built them in very defined manners in great symmetry without conflict in thought and action. The true great Satvic at work !
|An Ideologue is by the lexicon, an advocate of an ideology. Fr. Gabriel's ideology is offer effective service to mankind by building up individuals and institutions. As an educator he worked ceaselessly for upbringing scholarship character and professionalism in his students. He succeeded phenominally in this endeavour of his which lasted until his retirement from Christ College and later from the Syndicate of Calicut University. The Father's inexhaustible spirit for advancement of his cause of service further found him persisting in his efforts. He went on organising and lading enthusiastic social activists and created post superannuation several institutions and service centers rendering vital utilities on the educational and health care areas. The zest for serving the cause of humanity as seen in the Father is rather scarce in the contemporary times. The thirst unquenchable thus witnessed in Fr.Gabriel makes him unique, very special and rather great. The projects he materialised are the standing evidence for the Father's perseverance and imagination. The purpose they serve cause benefits and relief to innumerable people. The example Fr.Gabriel showed was, like the Mahatma, to make his works speak for him. And that too, sans, any thought whatsoever, about rewards and returns !

A recent incident at SFO with a near-miss prompted the FAA to issue reminders and recommendations about approach safety.
You've likely heard about the close call back in July at SFO, where an Air Canada flight came dangerously close to landing on a taxiway and causing an unprecedented disaster. The short explanation is that Runway 28L was closed and unlit; the crew mistook Runway 28R for Runway 28L, and tried to land on a populated taxiway, thinking it was 28R. The long explanation is, of course, still under investigation, but in the meantime, both the FAA and SFO are taking steps to keep such close and dangerous calls from happening again. While the changes at SFO will only affect those who regularly fly there, the FAA's recommendations (in the form of a SAFO) can benefit you at any airport, any time.
First, the changes at SFO: the airport will no longer allow aircraft to conduct visual approaches at night if one of two parallel runways is closed. This should alleviate confusion about which runway is which due to lighting. SFO will also always have two controllers watching outside the tower cab windows late at night during periods of heavy traffic. This is a response to the controllers in the tower at the time not catching what Air Canada was doing until it was almost too late.
SAFO 17010 is the FAA's response to the event, reminding pilots of best practices for approaches and landings. It's worth reading the SAFO in its entirety, but here are the highlights:
- Ensuring a stabilized approach is vital for crews to maintain situational awareness and avoid landing in the wrong place or other issues related to approach and landing. Unstable approaches require more time and focus from the crew, distracting them from other critical tasks.
- Where possible, published approaches such as VOR, LOC, ILS, RNAV, or others provide an accurate alternative to visual approaches. This is especially key in situations such as the Air Canada's, where an unusual situation (a closed runway) created confusion about the landing area.
- Good CRM dictates that crews work together and communicate when anything at all about any phase of flight seems "off." A crewmember who believes something is amiss is fully responsible for communicating that quickly and clearly. It is better to use extra caution and find out nothing was wrong than to end up in a dangerous situation because you did not speak up.
- Be prepared to conduct a go-around the second one is called. When possible, practice go-arounds to ensure you can perform them without hesitation.
Another key point not listed in the SAFO is the importance of good communication with ATC at all times. While we certainly leave the job of determining where communication could have been improved with Air Canada to the investigators, knowing when to ask questions and verify information with ATC during an approach and landing can help avoid such events in the future.
Remember: if any doubt exists at all, it is always better to clarify your information using all the resources available, including charts, ATC, checklists, and your crew.

Have vibrators become a must-have sexual appliance? Is this what women have been reduced to in their quest for liberation and independence? I wonder if I stand alone in my opinion that it might be a fun toy if you're married, or have a Boy Toy, or whatever-his-name-is, playing house with you this week, but I just cannot see any need to keep a back-up system in a dresser drawer that requires AA batteries or an extension cord. Hell, I still get nervous using my rechargeable electric razor in the shower. I don't think I'm the type of woman who could bring herself to plug any device into a 110V outlet and insert any part of it inside my body. I just have horrible visions of a faulty gadget causing electrocution, and someone having to call my parents and explain to them how I died. I can't imagine anything more humiliating than having the circumstances surrounding your death be so ludicrous that it makes Bob and Sheri's "Morons in the News."
Nevertheless, I set out to see if I could discover where these little contraptions were sold in Charlotte. I thought it might be time to give myself a remedial lesson in sexual device technology, and bring myself up to speed -- preferably on multiple levels.
Charlotte doesn't exactly have a red-light district where you can easily find a sex-toy shop behind some seedy strip joint. After driving around for an hour, I drove back home when I realized that plopping down a vibrator on a sales counter wasn't going to be my idea of a pleasant shopping experience. I'd rather swallow shards of glass than be forced to watch the salesperson take it out of the box, pop the batteries in, and give it a good whirl to make sure it was working for me. At this point, any sound a vibrator makes in a sex shop full of customers would be as deafening as the launch of the Space Shuttle. Then I'd have to endure the next few agonizing moments while my transaction was rung up; and God forbid they have a question about the price. I can hear the salesperson yelling across the room, "Yo! Joe! Can you give me a price check on the 9-Inch Ultimate Power Thruster in section two?" I came to the conclusion that I just wasn't ready to share a moment like that with a blue-haired kid with a tongue ring and tattoo-covered biceps.
I decided to try surfing the internet and found out that a good vibrator will set you back $100 or more, depending on the material it's made of, or how famous the porn star was who they used as a model. Flashing lights were extra, and the more elaborate robotics which caused a "realistic feel," or added features that delivered an equivalent of electric shock therapy, upped the price to an easy $200.
The one model I couldn't seem to comprehend was a vibrator that sported a remote control feature. Who would buy a vibrator with a remote control? On what occasion would you find yourself in a yoga position that would require that kind of acrobatics? And if you have a partner present to maneuver the mechanics on the remote control, then why are you using a vibrator at all?
While web surfing, I discovered that barnyard animals were the theme of the more elaborate and expensive models. Rabbits and piglets -- even elephants -- graced the pages. I can easily see how a woman could find an exact replica of well-endowed male genitalia sexy and exciting, but an elephant?
I sighed as I clicked through the websites, all promising prompt delivery in discreet brown packaging with shipping and handling charges almost equaling the price of the product.
I finally decided this just wasn't the route for me. I shivered at the thought of getting on this let's-go-out-and-buy-a-vibrator kick that women from my own generation seem to be on. I may be different than other women in my social circle, but I just can't deal with cheap substitutions for the real thing.

Everyone uses Vaseline and has different uses for them, which means you might pick up a new trick or two that you weren't familiar with. When petroleum jelly first surfaced it was mainly used for healing purposes but soon was incorporated with cosmetics as well. Petroleum jelly is the main ingredient in Vaseline and it has many different uses other than for just using to cure chapped lips. I thought I will share how I normally use Vaseline on a regular basis so that some of you might pick up a new trick or two. I bought my Vaseline from Bonjour for HK23 but you can get it from any beauty store or pharmacy.
1. Chapped Lips: The obvious one is using to cure chapped lips, that's what we all know and mainly use it for. It instantly coats the lips and in a short period cures the lips. It also acts as a good base to apply your lip products and keep the lips hydrated as some lip products can drastically dry the lips out.
2. Dry Feet: When I was a flight stewardess I would constantly suffer from dry feet as the aircraft is very dry and that causes you to get dehydrated. that's why they say drink a lot of water while on board. I would mix a bit Vaseline with my foot cream and then apply it and massage the product on to my feet. This was the skin stayed hydrated throughout the flight and my feet stopped drying out the itching stopped. Alternatively you could apply Vaseline to your feet before you sleep and wear sock and use it as a foot mask as well if you suffer from dry/cracked feet. The next morning you sure will have softer feet for sure. You use it on your hands as well in the same manner but use a cotton hand glove and it will give the same results. Soft smoother hands.
3. Burns: Another good trick is to use it on burns. If by accident you get burned by your curling iron or hair straightener or for that matter while cooking apply a little bit of Vaseline on the burnt area after holding it under running cold water and it will soothe the burning sensation. I also noticed that it healed much faster and that the scar wasn't that visible. You can mainly use it on small burns like I mentioned so be careful.
4. Curled Lashes: I learnt this trick recently, where once you have curled your lashes using your favourite lash curler (mine is Shu Uemura and you can read my review HERE) you dab a small amount on to your index finger and apply it on to your lashes as if your setting them in place. This works like the way a primer would work and keep the lashes curled for much longer and helps to keep their shape as well.
5. Nails: This trick I have seen at many salon when you get a manicure and pedicure, where some use Vaseline to soften the cuticles so it becomes easier to push them back. I do this when I give myself a manicure. This way the skin around the nail bed doesn't get damaged and nor does it hurt. The manicure becomes that much easier. Another trick is to apply to around your nail-bed before applying the nail polish, this way in case you get any on your skin its easy to clean up as the Vaseline acts as a barrier and prevents it from getting hard on the skin. Apply nail polish neatly like your manicurist would becomes easy. Practice makes perfect. You do need to wait until the nail polish has dried to clean up around the nails, you don't want to end up with smudged nails.
These are my little tricks to get the maximum out of Vaseline without just using for chapped lips. I love using it on my curled lashes and that is what I use for now the most.
Do you use Vaseline at all? I'm sure you have different ways of using Vaseline I would love to hear about it.

TAIPEI (Reuters) - Iphone assembler Hon Hai Precision Industry Co Ltd will buy a 21 percent stake in Siliconware Precision Industries Co Ltd (SPIL), both firms said on Friday, days after another Taiwan-based Apple Inc supplier also said it wanted to buy into the chip packaging firm.
The rivalry over SPIL, the industry's third-largest packager, comes as companies in the chip industry seek to overcome the technological challenges raised by the Internet of Things, where everyday products are monitored and controlled online.
Chip packaging firms have also been developing technologies for smart wearables, in which chips that power such gadgets are packed into smaller and smaller spaces.
In a joint stock market filing with SPIL, Hon Hai, the world's largest contract electronics maker, said it would buy the 21 percent stake in SPIL via a share swap. It did not disclose a value for the deal or say when it would close.
Last week, Advanced Semiconductor Engineering Inc (ASE), the world's largest chip packager and tester, said it would buy up to 25 percent of SPIL stock on the open market. ASE is a key supplier for the Apple Watch.
Executives at ASE could not be reached for comment on the Hon Hai deal.

Shifting Nano plant: Tatas keep options openSeptember 26th, 2008 - 4:33 pm ICT by IANS
Mumbai, Sep 26 (IANS) Auto major Tata Motors is keeping its options open on shifting out of West Bengal's simmering Singur area the plant to make the world's cheapest car Nano, according to a company official.Ever since company chairman Ratan Tata indicated his decision to shift out of Singur, Tata Motors has been besieged with offers from many states, including Maharashtra, offering them all facilities to relocate the Nano plant.
However, the official said here Friday that the company has not taken any decision on the new location or a specific timeframe within which Nano operations would be shifted out of West Bengal.
A state government official, confirming that Tata had written to Maharashtra Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh recently, thanking him for the offer, said there has been no further development.
"Since the chief minister is on a tour abroad and is expected to return only next week, we hope to take the matter forward after that," the official said.
The official spokesperson for Tata Motors told IANS that apart from the letter written by Tata, as a gesture of courtesy to the chief minister for his offer, no decision has been taken where or when to relocate the Nano plant.
Similar offers have come from several other states and the company would examine all in detail before finalising its future plans, he added.
Early this month, Deshmukh had offered land and other facilities to Tata Motors "anywhere in the state" for shifting the Nano plant, and renewed his offer later.
A string of states - Karnataka, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Haryana and Gujarat has made similar offers. So has Sri Lanka.

The belly fat is common issue for males and females and makes us feel less secure and confident, but also can be unhealthy.
Causes for fat are aging, bad diet with processed foods and sugars, lack of sleep and much stress. To resolve it, see the problem first. Also, belly fat can be an issue even for people with healthy lifestyle.
Piled up fat has different benefits or side effects. It keeps organs safe inside, gives energy when we starve and shields from toxins.
To remove this fat, make the body used to new changes. Learn how to burn fat by making deficits between meals and workouts.
Workouts make our body spend that fat as energy and make muscles stronger and leaner to lose more fat. But, if you have toxins and too much fat and unhealthy diets, than fat loss is hard to achieve.
Chinese medical belly massage
To workout the core is great for making those muscles strong. But, all these don't melt the belly fat (crunches, planks, leg lifts).
For this you need 2 minutes that will work the muscles and cleanse the toxins to melt more belly fat.
It is a Chinese medical technique that combines many styles of massage for improving the digestive system and improves body processes for detox and waste removal. Such are the benefits:
- Better digestion
- Detox in intestines
- Removal of adipose tissue
- No constipation
- Better abdomen organ work
- Better blood flow in abdomen
- Less nausea and vomiting, or indigestion
Do this 2 times per day, before breakfast and before sleeping.
This is the way to do it:
Lie on the back on flat surface. Rub the hands to warm them up and in circular motions, move around the belly button and widen up the circles. Each circle is 2 seconds.
Then, focus on the heat of the skin. Do the whole process for 2 minutes and total of 50 circles. The belly MUST be warm for this workout.

Saakashvili: The Kazakhs have not coped with the development of the resort of Likani2011-07-25 19:03
According to the head of the Georgian state Mikhail Saakashvili, the investors from Kazakhstan, which has been entrusted to engage in the development of the Georgian Resort Likani, have failed in their obligations. Now, according to Saakashvili, the state must ensure development of resort. Saakashvili, however, did not specify whether they would search for a new investor to start.
According to general director of the Kazakh company "Kazmunay service Georgia" Amanzhol Kusainova, the words of the Georgian president are likely to mean that the state will assist in project implementation. However, Kazakh side has no plans to leave the project the, he added.
According to him, the project is prepared and should be adopted in Kazakhstan. He also clarified that supposedly new resort will be opened in two years.
In turn, according to the head of administration of Borjomi Archil Mikeladze, in Likani nothing new is going on there and they constantly are waiting for begining construction. According to him, such a long process of begining of construction caused substantial damage to the tourist potential of the region.

Dear Steve,
I was forced to go to a University close to my home because my father had passed away when I was 13.
I was expected to take out the maximum loan amount from Sallie Mae. Most of the money went into the house my Mother owned.
She had always promised that she would help me when I graduated but she hurt herself after I finished my Masters Degree and is now on Social Security.
Being in the position with my credit maxed out and and my mother now hurt I was required to help pay the bills because the Social Security did not cover our monthly bills.
How best would you describe me trying to try get some of the loans forgiven? Is there anything I can do to get some sort of loan forgiveness?
Dear John,
Well that sounds like a series of very unfortunate events based on a hopeful outcome. I'm not blaming you for decisions you made back then. It sounds as if you were being guided by your parent who you trusted. Your Mom made some really horrible choices though.
It sounds as if the loans were private student loans because you seem to have received the money directly and used the money for home needs.
If my assumptions are correct, then you may be able to get a substantial portion of the private student loans discharged in bankruptcy if you have a smart lawyer representing you.
I think you are located near New York so you might want to look at my list of student loan attorneys you should consider asking for assistance.
The reasons why the loans may not be protected from discharge is technical but this article by attorney Austin Smith on the list can help explain it a bit more.
In your search for help from your average bankruptcy attorney you may run into a lot of people who say there is no hope. Don't give up. This is a quickly expanding area of expertise and most bankruptcy attorneys are just unfamiliar with what options really exist.
Your bankruptcy to discharge some or all of the loans may require an additional legal proceeding so be prepared to have to pay more for legal help than the average run of the mill bankruptcy.
Again, considering my private student loan assumption is correct, there really isn't any forgiveness option for them. Your loan elimination options fall into a legal strategy of bankruptcy elimination or a strategic default strategy where you stop paying and hope to negotiate a settlement of the total amount due.
Those are really you most logical options.

Hello Everyone!!
Our favorite stock MVW has fallen back to $0.36 (below where it started... so unfortunately the Downside that I presented in my May 13th post came true)... Does this present new opportunity?
I presented this stock at $0.55 and we saw it go to $2.64 shortly after. I also saw a pull back coming since the company hadn't put out any news about developing their 2011/2012 game-plan + the shares from the financing they did in February (@ $0.22) came free in June.
In my opinion this is now VERY UNDERVALUED. (once again)
The light volume we saw in the market today tells me that the selling may be over with.
The fundamentals of this company are still VERY STRONG, and even without their 2011/2012 game-plan, their current holdings + production alone could substantiate a higher price than what we're seeing now.. The Bakken & Williston basin plays are getting a lot attention, but I think it's only just beginning..
As I've said from the beginning, MVW shows great LONG TERM indicators, but also presents great trading opportunities.
Please do your own research and decide for yourself! I'm simply making sure you're all aware of what's going on. As always, please email me or connect with me on Facebook or Twitter if you have any questions!
ps. please also refer to my disclaimer at the bottom of the page!


text: Need for the National Rail Plan The Indian Railway Network is a key component of the Country's Transport System. Transporting goods and passengers on a massive scale, the Indian Railways plays a critical role in India's economic as well as social fabric, not to mention the security and cross-border strategic linkages. Pragmatic development of Indian Railway Network as part of the country's overall multi-modal transport system is therefore, very important In view of above, National Rail Plan (NRP 2030) was announced in Railway Budget 2016-17 which states that: "112. National Rail Plan : In order to provide long-term perspective to planning for augmenting the railway network, we have decided to develop 'National Rail Plan' (NRP-2030) in consultation with all the stakeholders including State Governments, public representatives and other relevant Central Ministries. NRP-2030 will endeavour to harmonise and integrate the rail network with other modes of transport and create synergy for achieving seamless multi-modal transportation network across the country. This will also achieve the Hon'ble Prime Minister's vision of integrated planning and cost optimization of the transportation network by laying the new railway lines and new highways together in tunnels and over mega-bridges." Keeping above announcement in view, a National Rail Plan 2030 is to be formulated. The Plan shall be suggesting Railway Infrastructure to be created by 2030 with a horizon year of 2050. Following important aspects need to be kept in view while formulating the Plan: Railway Infrastructural deficiencies in various parts of the country. Movement of coal, iron ore, food grains, fertilisers, petroleum oils based opon sources and destinations like location of refineries and power plants etc. Future freight corridors Strategic requirements on Indo-China, Indo-Pakistan borders. Connectivity to ports (existing and upcoming) and waterways. Connectivity to tourist, religious and commercially important places. Faster movement between important cities of the country. Integration of multi-modal transportation. Trans-Asian Rail (TAR) network.

My feelings have flip flopped on this topic quite a bit of late, and now that the console is out in the wild I think it's time to dig into it. I keep getting asked "should I get an Xbox one X" and my response has always been simple, just get a beefy PC, spend some extra $ if you can afford, and have a powerful computer that you can upgrade overtime and play multi platform games and still have access to all of Microsoft's exclusives.
However, what I'm realizing is the decision isn't as black and white as that. If you asked me 5 years ago I would have preordered the X and been freaking out more than I am currently. Plus, $500 as an entry point for a console that does 4K 60fps stable is really impressive. Plus it's sleek, and reminds me of when the 360 made the bump to elite.
This quote from PC Gamer hits home to me. "The Xbox One X is an impressively powerful small form factor system, with graphics power that rivals a decent PC graphics card and a CPU that falls short of what we'd expect from a gaming PC. It would be hard to build a gaming PC this compact at the same price, but as always, a gaming PC will be a more versatile system."
There's so much more to this debate however. Some people prefer their computers stay computers, and their consoles stay consoles. Some people enjoy the fact that they download or put a disc in to a console and it just works. PC, you'll run into issues with drivers not being updated, or little glitches that usually you won't find on consoles. The simplicity of a gamer is what Microsoft is after.
Microsoft isn't targeting me with this console and that's okay. They are targeting their fan base and console gamers in general that want a more PC feel, without the PC. If you own a high-end PC, Microsoft is saying "great, play our games on your nice PC." If you don't want a nice PC, than buy an Xbox One X.
The only issue that Microsoft will continue to struggle with is games. They don't have the library of a Sony or a Nintendo. With the PS4 Pro it almost makes sense to upgrade because you'll get Horizon, Ni-oh, Nier and others with PS4 Pro support just in 2017 alone that you can't experience on Xbox or PC for that matter (besides Nier). With Microsoft you're sort of stuck with whatever third party titles are released with Scorpio.
I'm always going to be biased towards a gaming PC as someone who left console gaming in the dust a few years back but that doesn't mean this console doesn't have a place.
Only time will tell how this console will shape up. At $500 Microsoft is asking a lot from it's passionate fan-base. However, I don't believe anyone who purchases one will be left disappointed. The debate will rage on from Xbox fan boys about their console compared to a PC, even if it's not really a fair fight.
I am happy that this console does a exist, and if you are a console gamer you should be exicited. There's not a better time to be a gamer.
Will you be picking one up? If so, let me know in the comments below why!

Abstract: TI3.00006 : Laboratory Experiments on the Generation of Perpendicular, Magnetized Collisionless Shocks by a Laser-Ablated Piston*
Preview Abstract Abstract
Derek Schaeffer
(University of California, Los Angeles)
Collisionless shocks occur ubiquitously in space plasmas and have been extensively studied $\textit{in situ}$ by spacecraft, though they are inherently limited in their flexibility. We present laboratory experiments utilizing a highly flexible laser geometry at UCLA to study the generation of magnetized, perpendicular collisionless shocks by a super-Alfv\'{e}nic laser-ablated piston. Experiments were carried out on the LArge Plasma Device (LAPD), which can create a highly reproducible $20$ m long by \O$1$ m H or He magnetized ($\leq2$ kG) ambient plasma. The $100$ J Raptor laser was used to ablate perpendicular to the background magnetic field a carbon target embedded in the LAPD plasma. Emission spectroscopy revealed a significant spread between laser debris charge states, consistent with 2D hybrid simulations that show fast-moving, highly ionized debris slipping through the ambient plasma, while slower, lower charge states drive a diamagnetic cavity. The cavity grew to several ion gyroradii and lasted around one gyroperiod, large and long enough to act like a piston by allowing laminar fields at the cavity edge to transfer energy from the debris to the background plasma. This is confirmed by spectroscopy, which shows a reduction in debris velocities relative to a non-magnetic case, and Thomson scattering, which shows an increase in electron densities and temperatures in the ambient plasma. An increase in the intensity of the ambient plasma seen by gated imaging also indicates an energetic population of electrons coincident with the cavity edge, while Stark-broadened ambient lines may indicate strong local electric fields. Magnetic flux probes reveal that the cavity launches whistler waves parallel to the background field, as well as a super-Alfv\'{e}nic magnetosonic wave along the blowoff axis that has a magnetic field compression comparable to the Alfvenic Mach number, consistent with simulations that suggest a weak collisionless shock was formed.

Here is the place to ask
Ahrina - aka The Diva
On this spiritual and intuitive path, I have studied with numerous teachers, read every book available and taken so many courses I could probably open my own school :)
I am compelled to continually learn more, do more and be more!
I don't know everything but I have learned a lot and I will do my best to answer any and all questions posted here.
So, here is my invite to you...
Do you have a question about Angels, Spirit Guides, Chakras or other "Woo Woo" topics?
