The Best Advice About Hotels Out ThereWhen you travel, you have hundreds of hotel options to choose from. Hotels can be expensive. So, you should learn how to look for a hotel that gives you the best value. You want the best hotel experience that you can afford. Read this article for some helpful hints that can help you achieve that.
To find the best deals on hotels consider a travel agent. Many times travel agents can find wonderful hotels at a great price. When booking with a travel agent, ensure that the agent knows both your wants and your needs. This will allow the travel agent to shop for both and offer you choices.
When thinking about the type of hotel you would like to stay at, there are plenty of options to consider. Price is always important, of course, but you might also want to find a hotel near a certain attraction or business. Amenities like a swimming pool, a gym, free local calls or breakfast, and other amenities may be things that you prefer. Seek to locate a hotel that provides lots of attractive amenities.
If you've left amenities at home, ask the front desk. Often you won't need to go out to buy things like toothpaste and toothbrushes. The front desk typically has the staples available to customers at no cost whatsoever. Sure Visit Web Page 's only a few dollars saved, but every dollar counts.
When traveling with children, be sure the hotels you choose offer features the kids will enjoy. A playground on site is very helpful. A pool with plenty of shallow area and/or a kiddie pool will provide great play time. Also check to see if the hotel you are interested in offers a child care service.
Get all the information you need before booking a hotel room. In addition to making sure they serve all your basic needs, you should also ask if there are any events planned at the hotel at the same time you will be there. A convention, for instance, can mean you will be in a noisy, crowded hotel.
If you'd like to bring Fido on your next trip, you must make some advance plans. You want to ensure you've chosen a pet-friendly hotel. Additionally, bring along a few plastic bags suitable for cleaning up after your animal. When ylang ylang beach resort go to make the hotel reservation, see if there is room on the end that would prevent the other guests from hearing a noisy pet.
If you have a little one with you, remember that hotel rooms aren't usually set up for babies. Don't forget to pack a few things so that you can baby proof the space. For example, an outlet cover is small but it plays a big role in keeping your child safe.
Call the hotel you are planning to stay in and see if they offer any discounts. Many hotels offer discounts for senior citizens, business travelers, military personnel and government officials. Additionally, if you are a member of an automobile association, you may qualify for a reduced rate on your hotel stay.
Figure out what comes with your hotel. Find out if http://bombshrimp8azzie.jiliblog.com/6875345/here-is-a-little-suggestions-about-hotels offers better noise control and views on one side. Ask them about nearby public transportation, restaurants, and if they are near any entertainment or business areas. You should also find out the type of neighborhood they're in and what their environmental policies are.
If you don't have your heart set on a certain hotel, try using a website like Hotels.com. These types of sites let you put in bids and then return a list of hotels in your price range. The only drawback is that they may not reveal which hotel you have booked until after you have committed to staying there.
To check a bed in a hotel room for a bedbug infestation, look for certain things. You want to check the mattress and even behind the headboard for these signs. These include blood stains or small black dots that appear to be like mold or even ground pepper. Alert hotel staff the instant you find anything suspicious.
If you are traveling with children, make sure you tell the front desk about your needs when you call to make a reservation. For example, do you need a pack and play? Make that known before you show up at the hotel. Also, ask if there is space in the room to set up a crib. You may need to ask for a larger room so that your entire family can be comfortable.
As you can tell, it's not too hard on people to get hotel advice. It's something you should pay attention to because things of this nature get pretty expensive. You will now be able to handle things with this advice when it comes to hotels. This is a great thing to know about for just about everyone.

I cook most fish (including prawns) to 45C / 113F. That is below the sterilization limit. That is perfectly OK within food safety guidelines so long as the cooking time is not too excessive (i.e. so long as it is less that a couple hours). I would NOT cook thick pieces of fish this way because the cooking time would be so long that some spoilage could result.
Beef and other red meat I cook to 130F / 54.4C. This is what I would term ������������������������������������medium rare������������������������������������ but there is a lot of disagreement on mapping subjective terms like that to temperatures. Depending on the situation I might cook it to sterilization, or I might not.
Tough red meat ������������������������������������ such as flat iron steak, short ribs etc I will cook at either 130F/54.4C or 136F/58.8C, from 24 to 72 hours depending on the cut and how tough it is. This gives time for the collagen to break down and make a tender result.
Tender cuts of pork, such as tenderloin I generally cook to 140F/60C. Trichinosis is killed at 137F, and anyway has been eliminated from the food supply in the US and many other places. I would cook wild meat a bit more, and/or pre-freeze it.
Chicken and turkey also gets cooked to 140F/58C, and I make sure that I follow the sterilization times.
Duck breast goes to 130F/54.4C. Duck confit is 180F/82.2C for 8-12 hours ������������������������������������ pork or lamb confit is the same.
Rack of lamb at 59C (138) here... Rack of Lamb
The thighs are cooked very similar to the manner in which you'd cook a duck confit. You might want to try making it even closer to duck confit - see the duck confit thread. Basically, you salt the thighs/legs and let them sit (brining also works). Then cook with several tablespoons of buttor or oil in the bag. I'd try 170F to 180F for 8 to 10 hours.

Steelers 2018 Draft
Published at 3/19/2018
6085 Page Views | 2 Comments
Other Publishings by Steeler17
With Free Agency fully underway, it seems as if the Steelers have already set their eyes on the draft to fill in the holes on this team. Here is my go at what I think the Steeler's should do. Two notes, first is we already signed an ILB, I think we add a WR and S depth pieces before the draft. Second note, just to make it fun, the Steelers trade back with the Tampa Bay Buc's. They get our first round pick and we get their second and third. The Steelers are in a rough spot at 28, as it seems most ILB's will be off the board and S has more value in the second day of the draft. Trading back nets another high pick which will be key to helping us next year. The Buc's could be moving up for a DT like Hurst or even a RB like Guice before he is opened up to the rest of the league.
Round 2 (From Buc's)- Justin Reid, S:
After the signing of Bostic, the Steelers have a starter at both S and ILB so they don't have to reach for either position. Luckily for the Steelers, Reid is a stout cover safety which should take some pressure off of Davis who is more of a run stopper. Reid would be able to supplement Wilcox and Davis while honing his skills. Hopefully he will be able to take over Wilcox's spot as the season progresses.
Round 2- Mike Gesicki, TE
The Steelers have shown some major interest at TE, and Gesicki is what the Steelers have been trying to find in a TE. McDonald is a great blocker with underrated athleticism, while James is a late career clone of Heath Miller. He also only has one year left on his deal and seems unlikely to receive a second contract. Gesicki could function as a utility piece behind these two, specifically in the redzone, while also serving as insurance if the injury bug strikes. Next year he can serve as the starter or number two.
Round 3 (from Buc's)- Lorenzo Carter, OLB
Even with ILB now being the largest need, OLB provides more value here. With Moats gone and Dupree not living up to his potential, new bodies are needed to drive up competition. Adams, last years 7th round pick, can came in and vye for a back-up spot, but Carter gives the team even more flexibility, Carter can sit behind Dupree and either supplement him or take over his spot if Dupree continues to disappoints.
Round 3- Shaquem Griffin, ILB
As athletic and explosive Griffin is, he is in now way ready to start. That being said, he is as close to Shazier as you are going to get. He is a twitch athlete but is still raw for the position. He can easily serve as the number three ILB and even come in for some passing downs. Ideally he can develop into a quality starter on the defense.
Round 5 (from San Fran)- Allen Lazard, WR
There are a lot of 5th round receivers I like and could envision the Steelers drafting (specifically Wilson from Bosie St and Ateman from Oklahoma). I went with Lazard though do his completely raw talent. He is tall and has supreme athleticism for a player his size. He also gets the benefit of not having any expectations his rookie season, as Bryant, Brown, and JuJu have the top three spots locked down. Next year once Bryant leaves though, he could have a good shot of taking over his spot. Worse comes to worse, he should be able to be used as a redzone threat.
Round 5- Taron Johnson, CB
While we finally have some stability at our CB position, with the release of Gay, we have a developmental spot wide open. This was held by Allen last year, but I feel like he will begin working on ST along with some spot defensive playing time. While Johnson would likely not play his rookie season, he provides another body in case of injury. On top of that, he was highly athletic and has great developmental potential. A few years down the road he could be a starter if he develops well.
Round 7 (from NYG)- Joshua Frazier, NT
Frazier didn't play much at 'Bama, but he is a moldable piece of clay. He also played under our new D-line coach and had dinner with the Steelers. Ideally, he can develop into a rotational run stuffing D-linemen.
Round 7- Martez Carter, RB:
The Steeler's target a RB to round out their draft. At this point, looking for a role playing RB makes sense. Carter isn't in any way a feature back, but he has great athleticism and pass catching abilities. He reminds me a lot of Darron Sproles, and could have a similar role with the Steelers. He can compete as a KR/PR and when Bell leaves next year serve as the 3rd down back.

My file cabinet is bursting at its seams because I have receipts and records from the last ten years! I need to toss all old records but the essentials. How long are you required to maintain personal records in the event of an audit? I was told three years. Is this correct?
Most people find it annoying to hang onto reams of paper over the years in case of an audit or tax question. But there is something frightening about throwing these old records away.
What to do? Three years is the minimum period of time to hold records after you file a tax return. Six years is even better because, in certain cases, the IRS has that long to audit you.
And, for some types of records -- primarily long-held assets like real estate or stocks -- the records should be kept from the date of acquisition until three or six years after the date of disposition of the item, which could mean a decade or longer.

The state requirement to adopt a performance assessment for teacher candidates was approved by the Minnesota legislature and signed by the Governor in 2011. The applicable section was added to a list of duties assigned to the Minnesota Board of Teaching and reads as follows (2011 language in italics):
(d) The Board must provide the leadership and adopt rules for the redesign of teacher education programs to implement a research based, results-oriented curriculum that focuses on the skills teachers need in order to be effective. The board shall implement new systems of teacher preparation program evaluation to assure program effectiveness based on proficiency of graduates in demonstrating attainment of program outcomes. Teacher preparation programs including alternative teacher preparation programs under section 122A.245, among other programs, must include a content-specific, board-approved, performance-based assessment that measures teacher candidates in three areas: planning for instruction and assessment; engaging students and supporting learning; and assessing student learning.

Last year a tiny fern appeared in a pot with another plant in the greenhouse. I let it grow, given my penchant for seeing if a seedling is indeed 'something' or just another weed.
Persian Shield died back to roots. The fern just kind of hung on. I never noticed any spores.
Here it is today. The fern is growing like crazy, Persian Shield has just emerged from its roots. I looked up the fern: Lygodium japonicum. Invasive in southern Deep South states. It tends to grow in pine forests and make 'fire ladders' to the tops of trees that cause damage to trees than can stand controlled burns if treetops are not involved.
Plant Delights sells it. He suggests cutting it to the ground in November before spores form and letting it come back. You KNOW that I will forget that tiny task.
Goodbye, invasive plant.

I like strange murals.
I like strange murals.
Either Amazon.com is monitoring my news reading habits, or it's just succumbing to paranoia. Here is what it recommends I buy today:
On the way to work yesterday, I was passed by a massive (and very new-looking) Cambridge Police armored vehicle.
Aside from obvious questions about whether it needs to exist at all, or whether it makes sense to drive it around in public so soon after the Ferguson situation, I have one suggestion for the city of Cambridge: change the paint job! The vehicle is painted dark green (forest camouflage?) and sports the same black-and-gray American flag insignias and understated lettering that special forces soldiers wear.
The whole thing looks extremely military–not police.
Why not paint the vehicle in bright, friendly police colors? It wouldn't be any less effective at, say, driving into an armed hostage crisis. And it would send a strong message to the police that it's not OK for neighborhood officers to play combat dress-up games.
Last year, the Kennedy Space Center opened their new permanent exhibit featuring the Space Shuttle Atlantis. A colleague and I happened to be in town on business this week, so we made a hasty appearance.1
I had been lucky to see an orbiter in person a couple of times before, including the dummy orbiter (Enterprise) once displayed at the Udvar-Hazy Center. None of those opportunities brought me as close as the new KSC exhibit, with its levels of catwalks just barely beyond touching distance.
The most startling thing about seeing an orbiter up close is that you can see how handmade it is. It's not at all like a modern jetliner, with its polished, painted surfaces, flush rivets, and machined perfection. Its surfaces are rough and its lines are ungainly. It has been discolored, in this case, by the effects of 126 million miles of space travel. With fasteners, stitching, and glue exposed everywhere, you can see how it was assembled. It looks like it could have been built in your backyard. Portions of the fuselage unprotected by tiles are covered with white fabric quilts. There is a fuzzy fabric gasket to seal the open cargo bay doors. You can even see the overspray from when "Atlantis" was painted on the side of the cockpit, as if someone casually did the task with a stencil and a can of Krylon.
It's still strange to see the Space Shuttle, an icon of scientific progress from my school days, in full retirement. At my last visit to the space center in 2011 (for the penultimate shuttle launch) the program's end was lingering ominously over the complex–but now it's here. Most visitors consume the optimistic NASA PR–that is is only the beginning of a new chapter. The truth is a little more harsh. The future is in the hands of private companies, but the romance is gone.
There's a lot more happening behind the scenes at McMaster-Carr than they let on. For example: this, in which I (signed in with my personal account) search for an item and get discreetly notified that my employer also bought some recently. How do they know where I work? I never configured such a thing. Their spartan and deceptively simple interface reveals no such options.
Granted, it wouldn't be hard to figure out. But I don't know of any other online shopping site that behaves this way. Pretty interesting.
Several folks were kind enough to send us digital copies of the photos they took at our wedding. It's fun to experience the occasion through so many other points of view, and it helps fill in the gaps that we would have otherwise missed.
Note to anyone doing this in the future: consider asking all your guests to take a photo of one clock! After importing all the images into Lightroom, it became clear that nobody is particularly vigilant about setting the time and date on their cameras. Computing an accurate time offset for each photographer would be a helpful strategy for organizing everything on a single timeline.
Of course, as a film shooter, I'm lucky if I can remember the dates of my own photos with any accuracy.
I realized today that my film scanner (a Nikon Coolscan 9000, for those of you who care) was discontinued a few months ago. It looks like Nikon is getting out of the scanning business. A quick check of eBay confirms that my machine is now worth roughly twice what I paid for it a few years ago. While many manufacturers have decided that the film business isn't viable, it also refuses to die. Kodak made big waves in the last year with the surprise introduction of two new pro-grade color films for still photography. Apparently they're doing quite well.
The resale value of digital cameras is not that different from automobiles. You pay a massive premium to be the first owner, after which it loses value rapidly. If you wait more than 10 or 15 years, you'll probably have to pay someone to take it off your hands.
Film equipment is different. I bought my Leica used in 2006, and due to stable supply its resale prices have more or less tracked inflation. Assuming I sold it today (not happening!), that would amount to a free 5-year rental. Not bad. Owning well-loved but discontinued equipment like the Coolscan is starting to look like an investment.

You have to finance the project of your marketing campaign to make it commercially viable. Your finance can suitably accommodate the lesser costing digital printing method in place of offset printing method which is comparatively costlier.
You will have to incorporate any of them to bring the best quality of your printing material. In this special tutorial, we will discuss five special pointers that will easily help anyone balance out getting cheap brochures while at the same time getting appealing enough designs. Just follow the pointers below and you should learn easily what you can apply for your brochures. Flyers And Postcards, Graphic Design Brochure and Brochure Template – Ready to Start.
The headline is possibly the most important part of the copy for your brochure. If your headline doesn't grab folks from the start, and pique their interest in your brochure, they likely will not want to read it at all. That is the last thing you want when you have gone to the trouble and expense of running a marketing campaign! As you can see, there are many ways of printing brochures conveniently. Indeed, there is no cause for worry. The simple strategies you have just learned will help you come up with the best brochures for your business.
Menu Printing Companies and Graphic Design Brochure – The Best Methods. On the front of your template, on the cover, is where most of your creative design efforts should be focused. This is what people will see when they first look at your brochure. Think of it as acting like a headline does for a newspaper. It is supposed to arouse the reader's attention, so that they open up the brochure and seek out more information. That is why pays to find a business brochure template that can best utilize an eye catching cover.
Are they young professionals of certain industries? Are they retired women with large expendable incomes? Are they middle-aged sporty types? You may want to decide on the specific age, social class and even sex of your target market depending on your particular item for marketing. The more accurate the target the better since it will give you a more accurate insight on the best content and design to use in your color brochures.
Employing the services of an experienced graphic design company will ensure that the design, content and imagery work towards the goals of attracting more business interest. Many graphic design companies simply get too carried away with creating a visual impact; although important in attracting initial interest, capturing the attention of the consumer, it is the message that works to convince and convert the potential customer into an actual customer.

Hi there! I'm Rebecca Swanner. Most of my friends know me as Becca. You can call me that too. 🙂
My love of sugar started early. The baking came later. As a kid, I loved baking around the holidays, when I would — without fail — do a really excellent job of dusting the entire kitchen with flour and powdered sugar. When I moved to Los Angeles baking took hold as a passion, and in 2010, I launched Secret Marmalade. It was a small baking company that specialized primarily in cupcakes and brownies.
I appeared on Cupcake Wars with my best friend, participated in Unique LA, and helped bring the Depressed Cake Shop to Los Angeles. But, the longer I ran the business, the more I realized that running a bakery (or a catering business) wasn't my calling. I had also created a much too serious brand for someone who is definitely at least half Muppet. So I closed up shop…
…and opened Let's Eat Cake! This blog is where I get to share some of my favorite baking recipes with you. Whether you're experienced in the kitchen or you're a novice baker, I believe that you'll be able to successfully bake any recipe on this blog you choose! Baking is meant to be fun, not intimidating. And while some might have lots of steps, I'm there to guide you through them every step of the way.
Have a question about a recipe? Not sure about a step? Something turn out wonky? Leave me a message in the comments! I read all of them and do my best to answer every question. I'm also pretty speedy at answering questions if you leave them for me on Instagram or Facebook.

The bromance between Lu and BMo is allowed to further blossom, as Morrison continues his tryout with the Canucks.
The Vancouver Canucks announced their biggest set of cuts since the start of main training camp, as they assigned 10 players to the Manitoba Moose.
What is surprising about their list of cuts is not who's on the list, but rather who's not on the list.
Today, the Vancouver Canucks announced the reaasignment of 9 players to Manitoba and the release of 1 player to Manitoba. Those players were:
Defensemen Nolan Baumgartner, Kevin Connauton, Evan Oberg, Chris Tanev and Sean Zimmerman, along with forwards Mario Bliznak, Prab Rai,Jordan Schroeder, and Aaron Volpatti were all reassigned to the Moose. Defenseman Travis Ramsey was released to the Moose.
I'm sure some Canucks fans will be somewhat disheartened to see Jordan Schroeder sent down to the AHL, but he didn't appear to take a significant leap forward in progress with his game. While he looked good at times, Schroeder was not overly impressive for large stretches.
What's more surprising is the fact that PTO signee Peter Schaefer was not among today's cuts. From what I have seen of Schaefer in the pre-season, I have not been impressed. Not that Schaefer has been terrible, but he hasn't wowed me with any of his play, either with physical play or skill play. The Canucks obviously saw enough out of him in these last few games that they wanted to keep him around for a little while longer. Although I think he's going to be hard-pressed to make the opening day roster.
Another former Canuck and PTO signee that has impressed has been Brendan Morrison, who also survived today's cut. Morrison has looked solid in a number of different roles that he's played this pre-season. He's had good hands, speed and tenacity and that's seems to be a winning combination in this system.
Along with Schaefer and Morrison, others that made it through to fight another day are Sergei Shirokov, brothers Lee and Billy Sweatt and Joel Perreault. The fight now now seems to be for the 2nd line spot with Alex Burrows absense, as well as the bottom 4 spots. The defense spots appear to be locked in, with Lee Sweatt here to take up some pre-season playing time until the regular season starts. I am not convinced that the Hordichuk or Rypien have a spot at all. In fact I would be very surprised if both of them are still around on October 9th.
The remaining players have 3 more pre-season games to impress Canucks brass and coaching staff enough to earn their spot on the roster. The final cuts and releases would likely happen this Saturday, as the Canucks would pare down the roster to their expected opening day line-up.
The players have 6 days to impress those that matter. Who's going to have the jump in their game to step up and make the team?

Victoria Racing Club
Since 1995, Wrights has worked with Australia's premier racing club, the Victoria Racing Club (VRC) on the internationally acclaimed thoroughbred horse racing carnival, the Melbourne Cup Carnival.
In 2003, after working in the Australian racing industry for more than a decade, Wrights worked with the VRC to conceive and implement the Melbourne Cup Tour. The Tour sees the $175,000 trophy travel around the country and across the globe to ensure the Melbourne Cup remains relevant nationally and internationally.
Over the past 20 years, Wrights has been involved in countless special projects with the VRC, including the launch of two new grandstands. The first in 2000 saw 'The Grandstand' built, a brand new stand for VRC Members. In 2015, Wrights successfully managed the sensitive stakeholder announcement that the 90-year-old Member's Old Grandstand would be demolished to make way for a state-of-the-art new facility, now under construction and due to open in 2018.
Each year the team manages media and event issues across the week-long Melbourne Cup Carnival, as well as the media accreditation and on-site media management of more than 1,200 international and local media across lifestyle, sporting and news.

I haven't checked the messages in awhile and Grace and I were reading posts. And I did want to comment on the point that I am certain that others close to this tour read these posts as by being a part of Annie - you become a big Annie Fan. And we so plan on seeing the tour when it comes our way in 2009.
However, we were laughing because this is her last week playing Jackie Bouvier in Grey Gardens. And she doesn't at all look like Jackie, She turned to me and said, it doesn't matter because if you got the role then that is who you are every time on stage. She even had a patron actually came up to her and say, you don't look anything like Jackie, but I certainly loved the way you played that role.
I don't think there was any harm commented on what Annie should or should not look like. We enjoyed the pictures of Tianna as Annie. Thanks for sharing.
However, we did notice they changed the sweater to a mustard yellow. We thought that was cool. Her hair is shorter and we actually liked it. See B'way World Pictures. I wonder if they change it up from year to year. Someone who reviewed the site said that there were quite a few changes with who does what as an orphan.
So good to hear that you and Grace are doing well and how the show is going. That is a good point that the person they cast becomes the person on stage! Ah the magic of the theatre.
I really think Tianna is adorable especially those beautiful green eyes of hers and I think the current pictures of her are really cute. And I also think that it's nice that Madison went on this weekend as the Blogs all say she is bringing something really nice to the character as well, just like we all know Grace did!
What a wonderful opportunity it has been for the girls who portray the characters and for those of us who get to experience their portrayals!
Thanks for the update and try to stay warm. Best wishes to you and Grace and all your family this season!

The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) released two Indian teachers out of the four they abducted last Wednesday in Libya. Indian Foreign Minister Sushama Swaraj tweeted about the release.
Four Indians abducted in Libya – I am happy we have been able to secure the release of Lakshmikant and Vijay Kumar. Trying for other two.
— Sushma Swaraj (@SushmaSwaraj) July 31, 2015
The four men worked at the University of Sirte, which closed in February after ISIS captured the town. They hoped the university would reopen, but decided to return home. All four were on their way to Tripoli to return to India, but were "detained at a checkpoint approximate 50 kilometres [31 miles] from Sirte." A wife's phone call is the only reason Indian officials knew about the abduction:
Incidentally one of the mobile phones was left behind in the taxi, according to sources. And when wife of the individual concerned, called up on the number, the taxi driver picked up the phone and informed her of what had transpired. Late night calls were then made to alert officials at the Indian mission which still operates out of Tripoli.
ISIS moved into Libya in November 2014. They took over Derna, a city home to over 100,000 people and located on the Mediterranean Sea. The terrorists raised their infamous flag on government buildings, plastered their insignia on police cars, and used the soccer stadium to execute people. They captured Sirte, the hometown of former dictator Muammar Gaddafi, in February. Since then, terrorists have kidnapped at least 20 foreign doctors and nurses. They also beheaded 21 Egyptian Christians from Sirte on the Libyan coast.
A militia linked to al-Qaeda drove out ISIS from Derna in June. The Abu Salim Martyrs Brigade fought back after ISIS "fighters assassinated Nasser Aker, a senior figure in Derna's Jihadi Shura Council."
"Of course this is a victory for Tripoli because these thuwar [revolutionaries] and their leaders have remained loyal," explained Libyan government spokesman Jamal Zubia. "Now the Shura Council in Derna is in complete control of the town and there is no IS in Derna. Many have been killed and captured from Daesh [Islamic State] and others have been kicked out. They have now moved 30 or 50km [18 or 31 miles] to the east."

Bangalore: Karnataka Governor H R Bhardwaj
today accused the government of adopting delaying tactics in
appointment of a new Lokayukta to "whitewash" criminal cases
and questioned the consultation process in recommending the
name of S R Bannurmath to head the anti-corruption watchdog.
Asked if the Government is indulging in deliberate delay,
Bhardwaj told reporters, "This will be explosive material if I
speak about the motives. Is there any doubt about what Santosh
(Hegde, a former Karnataka Lokayukta) said yesterday?. All
these motives, this is just to help those criminals."
"If the Lokayukta comes and whitewashes these crimes, then
what will you do?" he said when asked if a "head-less"
Lokayukta would "help" the state government.
Bhardwaj also alleged that the government had recently
transferred "good officers" from the Lokayukta institution.
"And now they want to whitewash all these cases which
have been brought out by the Commission (Lokaykta report on
illegal mining)," he said.
The government had recommended the name of Bannurmath, a
former Chief Justice of Kerala High Court, to head the
Lokayukta but the Governor questioned the recommendation,
citing allegations against Bannurmath that surfaced in
sections of the media.
The government in recent weeks indicated that it`s firm
on its choice and maintained that there are no documents
before it suggesting wrong-doing by Bannurmath.

I've only recently discovered Arches and share your love of it. Lovely painting.ReplyDelete
Have a great day tomorrow ... Happy birthday. ;)Replies
Arches is very very different from other papers. I didn´t know before that there could be such different. I just love it! Pity it´s that expensive though. But I guess that it doesn´t need to be that much more expensive in the long run, cause you get more content with the result and therefore maybe not put so many down a drawer. Less paintings but with higher class. You know what I mean?Delete
And that you for your nice comment John! Take care!

Welcome to Day 7 of my 30 days of Italian websites that will draw you in and keep you dreaming.
I am a big fan of supporting small business, family run operations and those that are lesser known. WordPress connected this site to me through their blog called From a Tuscan Villa. The only problem I have when reading their stories and drooling over the photos is my insane jealously that I don't live there!
Feel like you belong on my list or have a favorite link to share? Let me know!!
I'm obsessed with feedback, let me know what you think.
Love it?? Pass it on!

In human relationships it's referred to as the "nine stages of grief." In politics, it's referred to as the five stages of suckitude.
Stage 1:
Do the right thing when it's easy and doesn't count, so then when you don't have the courage to do it later when it does count, you can claim you still did.
Stage 2:
Trending: Kids Tutored in "Pleasure" Despite STD Epidemic
Go silent right before you're about turn on your base and break your word to pretend as if you're really agonizing over your sellout. See, if you're really agonizing over something you'll listen to voices of differing perspectives on the matter. But once your inner circle becomes your own echo chamber, you're no longer agonizing
Stage 3:
After the sellout you pretended to agonize over, do not do media interviews or constituent appearances that might force you to have to defend the indefensible for at least several days. Thus, giving the system time to contrive another faux controversy to feed the idiocracy.
Stage 4:
Instead, put out a statement claiming that "it was a tough call," and "there were no real good choices here." You're the highly paid victim who can vote himself a pay raise and a subsidized pension after all.
Stage 5:
When stages 1-4 fail, attach a legislative fig leaf to cover your shameful nakedness, which appeases the huddled masses your consultants convinced you are really stupid (sometimes these people are more respectfully referred to as "constituents"). Otherwise known as some uber-principled piece of legislation that you know has no chance of going anywhere, but allows your sycophants to deride those you betrayed and lied to as "purists" and "troublemakers" for being offended at your offense.
However, following Tuesday's infamous betrayal, when several so-called conservative "champions" voted to retain Obama's Perpetual Man of Orange as House Speaker, I suggest we spare ourselves this condescending and futile exercise. Let's just cut right to the chase, shall we?
If your excuse for selling us out is "the only viable Speaker candidate" was the guy that funded the entire Obama agenda the past two years, your excuse sucks.
If John Boehner was the "only viable Speaker candidate" then the Republican Party is in even worse shape than I think it is.
Do you think conservatives might have "viable" candidates for positions like House Speaker if we were actually invited to work our way up through the ranks for a change, instead of shut off from a seat at the table? You know, like a healthy political party might do, and not a crony capitalist racket?
Could any of those "thoughtful" and "respected" conservatives who voted for Boehner yesterday, because there supposedly weren't any "viable" challengers, please enlighten us as to the last time they substantively challenged leadership on anything?
How come none of these "thoughtful" and "respected" conservatives who thought the Boehner alternatives weren't "viable," didn't run then?
If you care so much about your conservative principles and voting record, why vote to retain the very leadership that stymies the conservative agenda at every turn?
Please, pray tell, what exactly could John Boehner do that might cause you to not support his sorry example of "leadership?" Remove key conservatives from committees—check. Betray conservatives on the House floor—check. Mock conservatives publicly—check. Betray the promise made to the American people not to pass massive spending bills nobody has read—check. Fund every last cent of Obama's most heinous policies a majority of Americans oppose—check. Have I missed anything? I think the last time someone in western government had this much tolerance for being road-kill they were named Neville Chamberlain.
Do you really expect us to give you credit for voting against Boehner on a voice vote two months ago, when you failed to stand up to him when it mattered most – on the floor of the House?
So please, shadow boxing conservative, stop sending out your passive-aggressive press releases and whining to your mainstream media stenographers that the very people who put you there are the problem here, and not you.
Instead, I have a better idea.
I believe in a God of second chances, but these second chances have to be accepted. They're not automatic. You know, that whole "go and sin no more" thing.
So how about showing some sincere public repentance? Admit you're human and you blew it, and you succumbed to the system. Then work to pay back your base restitution by aggressively pushing a conservative agenda where it matters most—the House rules. Finally, start meeting now to plan who exactly is then a viable conservative alternative to Boehner, and how do we get him the Speaker's gavel?
Anything less is as meaningless as all the campaign promises you've already broken by leaving Boehner in there to aid and abet Obama in the first place.

The program is intended to explore how the increased use of technology during the mortgage closing process may affect consumer understanding and engagement and save time and money for consumers, lenders, and other market participants. Specifically, the program seeks to aid the CFPB in better understanding the role that eClosings can play in addressing consumers' "pain points" in the closing process, as identified by the CFPB in an April 2014 report. The three-month pilot program will begin later this year, and the participants include both technology vendors that provide eClosing solutions and creditors that have contracted to close loans using those solutions.

The Story of a Great Schoolmaster
|H. G. Wells
|Original title
|The Story of a Great Schoolmaster; Being a Plain Account of the Life and Ideas of Sanderson of Oundle
|United Kingdom
|Frederick William Sanderson
|Chatto & Windus
Publication date
|Preceded by
|The Dream
|Followed by
|A Year of Prophesying
The Story of a Great Schoolmaster is a 1924 biography of Frederick William Sanderson (1857-1922) by H. G. Wells. It is the only biography Wells wrote. Sanderson was a personal friend, having met Wells in 1914 when his sons George Philip ('Gip'), born in 1901, and Frank Richard, born in 1903, became pupils at Oundle School, of which Sanderson was headmaster from 1892 to 1922. After Sanderson died while giving a lecture at University College London at which he was introduced by Wells, the famous author agreed to help produce a biography to raise money for the school. But in December 1922, after disagreements emerged with Sanderson's widow about his approach to the subject, Wells withdrew from the official biography (published in 1923 as Sanderson of Oundle; Wells wrote much of the text but the volume was published without listing an author[1]) and published his own work separately.[2]
For Wells, Sanderson was "the greatest man I have ever known with any degree of intimacy."[3] Wells emphasized Sanderson's originality not only as an innovative schoolmaster, but as a social and religious thinker whose liberal view of Christianity emphasized the notion helping and encouraging others to live not only "abundantly" but also "dangerously."[4] Wells embraced Sanderson's hope that schools dedicated to solving problems related to human needs and emphasizing creativeness, cooperation, and the scientific search for truth could become model institutions inspiring broader social change, and quoted at length from Sanderson's sermons and speeches on these subjects in his biography.
The Story of a Great Schoolmaster was translated into Swedish and was reprinted in vol. 24 of the 1924 28-volume Atlantic edition of Wells's works, after Joan and Peter.[5]

NEW LONDON, TX (KLTV) - An East Texas woman who dedicated most of her life and all of her time to her community has passed away.
Mollie Ward, who was once the mayor of New London, died this morning at the age of 86. Listing all of Mollie's accomplishments is nearly impossible. There are many things that Mollie will always be remembered for--- including starting the New London Museum, which honors the victims and survivors of the New London School explosion.
In 1937, when the explosion occurred, Mollie Ward became a survivor. She used her life, which was spared, to make sure her classmates that were killed in the explosion would never be forgotten.
"Mollie was on one of the buses when the school blew up. She graduated in 1944, so she was part of that group that continued on at London and graduated. It was always in her that something special needed to be done,' says Mike Tolbert.
Tolbert is now the director of the New London Museum. He took over after Mollie stepped down nearly 10 years ago. But still, people come through the doors asking for her by name.
"Without her, we would not have the museum and without the museum the story would not be told. We try to, you know, keep alive the memory of the day a generation died," Tolbert says.
He explains, Mollie collected mementos from the explosion and when the opportunity presented itself, she and some dedicated volunteers started the small museum that grew.
"Mollie's idea was, and I guess it goes with last week's news in fact that, Mollie had a dream. Her dream was to have a museum that was dedicated to the memory of the students who were lost," he says.
Mollie also served as mayor of New London for eight years. At her retirement party in 2008, Mollie said she had no regrets in a life of service to her community.
"It has been a pleasure to serve you, and it has been the joy of my life,' Mollie said.
"When somebody comes in and says, 'Where's Mrs. Mollie? We say, well, she's looking after us..." says Tolbert.
Some say she's looking after the city, the museum and the people she loves, because after all, to many in the community, Mollie Ward was New London.
Mollie was awarded the Yellow Rose of Texas by Governor Rick Perry in 2004. She was also on the East Texas Council of Governments for 19 years, received the Overton-New London Chamber of Commerce Outstanding Citizen of the Year Award in 1993, the Walmart American Hometown Leadership Award in 1998, and Historical Tourism Builder Award in 2004.
Mollie is survived by many family members, including her daughters Jo Ann Jones and Judy Worthen.
Mollie Ward's funeral will at 10 a.m. this Thursday, September 5 at Cottle-Pearson Funeral Home in Overton.

A BALLOT is underway to give young people from Lancashire their say on what issues are discussed at a special session of the UK Youth Parliament (UKYP) to be held in the House of Commons.
The ballot, called Make Your Mark, runs until October 10. It will ask young people across the country what issues matter most to them.
Votes can be cast online and through ballot papers issued in schools and youth centres. The result will help to determine what is debated by the Youth Parliament at the session in the House of Commons on November 14.
Tutu Mwitumwa Mukelabai, one of Lancashire's elected Members of the Parliament from Hyndburn, said: "As young people we have the right to have an input on choices that the government makes that affect our lives. I feel it is my duty as a member of the UKYP to give all young people in my district the opportunity to vote for what matters to them. That is what Make Your Mark is all about!"
Local MYP's are working with schools, colleges, youth groups and voluntary groups in their districts to encourage young people to get involved.
Ten topics will be available to choose from on the initial Make Your Mark ballot paper. The five most popular topics among young people will be discussed by MYPs in their November debate, chaired by the Speaker of the House of Commons, Rt. Hon. John Bercow MP and broadcast live on BBC Parliament.
Last year, the Make Your Mark ballot surveyed the opinions of over 478,000 young people, making it the largest youth consultation of its kind in the UK. This year, the young parliamentarians have set themselves a target of getting 1,000,000 young people to take part.
Fifteen-year-old UK Youth Parliament member, Connor Dwyer who will be running the Make Your Mark campaign in Preston, said: "Make Your Mark is the most important part of an MYP's role. By simply putting a cross in a box for the issue that they want campaigned for most, a young person is influencing local and government policy with a national campaign and a year-long investigation by the Youth Select Committee.
"If young people are loud enough, people will listen – and with 1 million ballots targeted, Make Your Mark will certainly make a difference."
Nikki Hennessy, Lancashire County Council's lead member for schools, added: "Since they were elected, Lancashire's members of the Youth Parliament have represented young people in their areas very effectively and have demonstrated hugely impressive debating skills. I have had numerous conversations with our MYPs on a wide range of issues and they have made their points very clearly.
"I have every confidence that they will be equally persuasive on the national stage in the House of Commons. I would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to the Speaker, the Rt Hon John Bercow MP, for opening parliament up to young people in this way. When I visited parliament as a schoolgirl myself, I often wondered what it would be like taking part in a debate when the chamber was full of politicians. In November, Lancashire's MYPs will find out first-hand.
"Good luck to them and all of the other MYPs. If I get the chance, I will watch at least some of the proceedings on BBC Parliament myself."

Sweet little Everly has arrived and we are all so in love. She (so far) is an easy baby as she pretty much just sleeps, and wakes up to eat and look around for a little while, and then goes back to sleep. She was born on January 16th at 7:10 pm after checking into the hospital at noon on that day, so it was a relatively short labor. Her birth was an amazingly calm, and joy filled experience (after the epidural of course:) ). She came into this world very alert with her big eyes not shutting for at least 6 hours. She has her sister's eyes, which makes mama happy because of course, I think Julianna has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.
Julianna has done a wonderful job being a big sister, giving Everly kisses, and hugs. It is so heartwarming to seeing our TWO little girls together, and more fulfilling than I thought I would feel at this point.
I feel beyond blessed to have two healthy and perfect little girls, and a husband that I could not imagine life without. The first morning at home, I woke up to a sleeping baby on my chest, and hearing the most adorable three year old voice belting out "Jesus Loves Me" from her bedroom. Does it get any better than that?!
