The Good, the Bad & the Awkward of Being a Private Chef
If you like to cook (and we're guessing you do, based on the fact that you're currently reading The Kitchn), you've probably had at least a fleeting fantasy about saying goodbye to your day job and trying your hand at being a private or personal chef.
One former restaurant chef who opted for the private chef life shares what the job entails in this Serious Eats essay. Here are a few of the things we learned.
- You get to play around with menus and cuisines. If you like planning out menus, then this should sound like a lot of fun.
- Like any freelance or contract job, you get to be your own boss. Plus you're pretty much guaranteed people will be happy to see you since you mostly work special occasions and you have the food.
- Clients can be tricky, and because you're working in their homes, they can get a little more involved with what you're doing than you might like. If you're a solo chef, be wary.
- Tipsy clients and their guests can make for awkward situations. Get ready to have some stories to tell your friends the next day.
- Want to get started? Try apprenticing or assisting with another private chef in your area. It's a good way to see if it's right for you. And culinary school definitely helps, too.
Read the rest of the essay on Serious Eats for more real talk about becoming a private chef.

A friend has a great-niece that lives in Denmark - she will be having a birthday in Septemer. I had the fun of making a wardrobe for Clara (the doll in the red/white/blue outfit below). Everyone wanted to share in showing off the new wardrobe before Clara heads off to Denmark.
A summery sunsuit for Clara and Poppy is wearing a jungle print sundress with a matching bag. Where are your shoes Poppy?
Donnie joins in the fun! Sally Jo is wearing the RWB sunsuit and Abby has the jungle print sundress with a white t-shirt.
Red white and blue stripes and stars - great for summer fun at the park or the beach
Everyone changed clothes except Donnie - he does need some new outfits for sure - maybe some shorts and shirts that match
Everyone loves aprons, hats and bags - for the beach, shopping or cooking up some summer treats.
Now let us go and visit our sweet Diane and her sweet dolls.

"....Hello, My name is Kushagra Singh, I am 24years old and I just happen to have flown umpteen numbers of times with Indigo. It's been long since I wanted to write to you guys about my experience flying with IndiGo. Well, to start with, I am a happy and satisfied customer, if there is anything that is expected as a passenger from the airline company, I count on you for providing me the best. The reason why I happen to write to you now is based on my recent experience on board. I was flying from Patna to Lucknow by 6E-339 on the 6th June 2013. Irrespective of all the wonderful qualities that you should brag about, there was one thing that I noticed and felt amazing about was your incredible hospitality. I have travelled in a lot of airlines but never before have had seen such chivalrous and polite crew members which I found on my flight yesterday. I would like to specially mention one particular name Ms. Nazia Patni, Cabin attendant whom I admired the most, the reason behind this is that I just happened to be confused over a little issue with an empty Special services coupon on my boarding pass. I was too shy to get it clarified by anyone but as it is my face must have clearly shown it. No one except Ms. Nazia noticed it and she was so kind to actually have come up to me and asked me what was wrong and to have explained me very clearly as to what the issue was. I am not sure if many people have experienced this before but I had never had such an experience before, for all I thought it was just the button above your head which makes the cabin crew notice you. Since it was an amazing gesture from her side that made me feel more comfortable than I already was, I felt like it's my duty to get this thing notified to the IndiGo authorities. For this small gesture has made me like your airline even more. Thank you. Warm Regards, Kushagra Singh. ..."

Cheers to IndiGo and such Employees associated with them (Miss Anupama M.S from Chennai Call Centre and Mr Akash Gupta from Gurgaon Call Centre). Thank you for all your Help and Support. Best Regards ALOK SHAH Sales & Marketing Executive. ..."

"....Dear Support, I'm travelling from Hyderabad to Chennai by Flight 6E -311, Seat No: 2F departure at 9.55am. I was totally impressed by the Counter staff, if my memory is correct he should be Mr. Rafeeq, (forgot the counter no.) He helped me in providing the desired seat and clearly demonstrating gate information. The way he presented himself was truly professional and friendly approach. Me being a frequent traveller, I haven't witnessed any such hospitality in any of the Domestic Airlines, other than Go Indigo. I foresee this person has the calibre and with his pleasing approach he will convince any sort of frustrated customer to a convinced customer. I wish him all the very best. Keeps the good work going Rafeeq...!!! Thanks & Regards Vijay Suresh Kumar Head IT. ..."

"....Dear Sir/ Madam, This is not a usual letter that I write but this time I was so amazed with the whole service given by IndiGo that I am hereby writing this letter. This mail is in reference to the booking id: NF2202732007088 for the IndiGo flight from Delhi to Indore on12th June. This was not the first time that I was travelling via flight but this was definitely the first time that I was travelling and was not well. So this was a big matter of concern and I was a little apprehensive about the whole idea of travelling that I even considered cancelling my ticket at the last moment and taking a flight the next day. But I also did not want to take risk since I had my college registration the very next day. Upon conversation with one of the IndiGo staff members about the whole thing, she assured me that the crew members of IndiGo Airlines would take care of me and thus I need not worry and carry on with the pre- booked flight. I must say that she was absolutely correct and the crew members actually took good care of me by regularly asking if I needed anything. The whole journey could not have been any better. Thus I wish to congratulate and appreciate Indigo Airlines for their incredible job and passion towards the customers by serving them in the best possible way. Thanks & Regards Ekta Aggarwal. ..."
"....Mr. Sagar Nagpal, Thank you very much for your mail and appreciated all your best support and cooperation. I am able to make the web check in successfully. Regards, V .KANNAN, Dy General Manager . ..."
"....I am extremely pleased and happy to inform you that my son's passport has been located by your Bangalore airport staff (Sugandha) and they are sending it to Mumbai by their evening flight. I would especially like to thank Mr. Charnel Dsouza who was most understanding and helpful and extended himself so that it could be found. I always make it a point to travel by IndiGo due to its excellent record in punctuality. Now I must add that IndiGo has helpful and caring staff that makes it the efficient airline that it is. Thanks a lot! Regards, Rita Swamy. ..."
"....Dear Sir/ Madam, I wanted to take this opportunity to drop a note thanking your Customer Service Team at IndiGo Airlines for going over and above the call of duty for helping me out during a recent crisis. I was traveling on IndiGo Airlines between Delhi to Chennai on 30th May 2013 and accidentally left my new Microsoft Surface Pro Computer in my seat front pocket while deplaning. It was only upon reaching my residence that I realized that I didn't have my new computer with me anymore. More than the loss of money, I was more concerned about the loss of data present on the computer. Unfortunately, the same flight that I was on went onwards from Chennai to Coimbatore and the computer went along with it. While on my way back to the Airport, I received a call from Mr. B. Kannan at Customer Relations. It seems that the computer had been handed in to the flight crew by a passenger but they were unaware as to which seat it came from. Mr. Kannan took the initiative of turning on the laptop, finding out my name, checking the flight registry, and then gave me a call to confirm that they had tracked down the computer. He also assured me that it was on the next flight back from Coimbatore to Chennai. The computer did finally reach back to me safe and sound, and I wanted to personally thank Mr. Kannan for being in touch with me all through this process to ensure that I was reassured and aware of the proceedings. I have been a consistent flier on IndiGo Airlines and this experience with Mr. B. Kannan has only reinforced my loyalty, and that of my firm, to your company. Best Regards, Ajay Nambiar Director - Sales & Marketing Chemical Construction International (P) Limited. ..."
".... Hello, I am writing this email to let you know about the feedback of a call that I recently had with IndiGo. I spoke with Mr. Aditya Pandey regarding the booking and it was one of the amazing experiences. He was patient throughout the call (we were on call for about 20 minutes) and I understand that he takes lot of calls every day, so in such scenario I don't think it is possible for anyone to stay online with one customer for this long time. I completely appreciate his help and I think he deserves to be appreciated in front of all his colleagues. Looking at this customer support experience I had, I feel that the money I spent on IndiGo is worth every Penny. Thanks a lot Aditya, keep up the good work. Best Regards, Manoj Mahajan. ..."
"....Dear Sir, I have booked a ticket from Dubai to Trivandrum on 25 Jun 2013 Ref No: ZUNEDP which had gone through some problems on credit card billing, at that time I got a call from IndiGo and the customer service representative Mr. Arun Sansanwal really helped me to sort out all my problems. I would like to thank Mr. Arun Sansanwal and IndiGo for helping me when needed. Thanks a Lot and all the best for you all. Best Regards, Balu Sreehari. ..."

"....Dear Kush, With this mail I want to share the feedback on the services received by you on behalf of IndiGo. I greatly appreciate your exemplary customer service, this indeed is an perfect example of taking full accountability in giving closure to customer concerns, hence delivering excellence in customer care.

With my experience in dealing with you I certainly can assure you of our continued extended Loyalty to IndiGo. Thank you so much once again for ensuring complete resolution and customer care. Keep up the great work! Regards, Neelam Gill. ..."

Pastor Blanton heard the same concise signal though his own earpiece. The tiny radio receptors were commercial descendants of a line of clandestine technology originally developed by the Central Intelligence Agency for its secret operations officers working the streets of Moscow under the stringent surveillance of the KGB. CIA officers trying to shake off their KGB watchers could listen through their earphones to the radio chatter of their opponents as they played cat and mouse. It was an auditory advantage that enabled many American mice to mysteriously elude baffled Russian cats. If a Russian follower muttered "we're turning right here," the American turned left.
The earpieces were so cleverly designed that they were invisible even to a person standing right next to the wearer, if the observer did not know exactly where and what to look for. When the KGB caught one female American officer meeting with a Russian spy, its thugs arrested, carefully searched, and exhaustively interrogated the American. They found two parts of the three-piece counterspy communication kit hidden in her bra—an aerial and a tiny receiver that captured the circling Russians' shop talk and transmitted it to the earpiece. But they never found the earpiece itself, even though the American officer continued to wear it throughout the long ordeal of her minute search and harsh interrogation. It was hidden in a small section of fake ear, a molding that was meticulously crafted to the agent's ear and pasted into exactly the right spot before she went out on her mission.
"In ten…nine…eight…seven," the countdown in the earpieces was whispered by Deshawn Caudill, First Apostle of Gospel Technology—also known as the production director for Fortress of the Holy Word Ministries—speaking from his special domain, a control room sealed off three floors deep within the basement of the Home Citadel structure. Six assistant producers were seated near Caudill, each intently watching his or her appointed panel of dials, buttons, HD television screens, and internet web displays.
From Cronatos Hybamper –An Extraordinary Incident by Tom Diaz
The story of the counter-surveillance spyware described in this passage from Cronatos Hybamper is based on a real incident. The bit about its use in your local mega-church is…well…fiction. On the other hand, if you happen to be wearing one of the new advanced and nearly invisible hearing aids, you can thank the CIA's spytechs for leading the way.
The American officer was a woman named Martha (or "Marti") Peterson. She was the first woman CIA case officer to serve in Moscow station. The incident summarized in the novel—or something very much like it—happened in Moscow in 1975. It is described with varying degrees of detail in several nonfiction books. Here is an excerpt from one of the more authoritative, because it has the CIA's nihil obstat:
…the KGB found, Velcroed to her bra, an OTS-developed [Office of Technical Services] frequency scanner used to intercept surveillance radio transmissions. Peterson's "necklace" was the scanner's induction coil antenna…Throughout the ordeal, the small receiver Peterson wore remained undetected. (p. 103)
Although the earpiece was small, it was not small enough to be worn on the street without the possibility of attracting attention. "The earpiece had an obvious problem," said one OTS staffer who was involved with the design. "You couldn't be seen wearing a piece of plastic in your ear without drawing attention." So OTS disguise specialists produced a "Hollywood solution." After taking a casting of a case officer's ear, they fashioned a false, silicone ear that fit over the Phonak receiver. Realistic down to the last detail, the covering was sculpted and tinted to duplicate the shadow of the ear canal. Each case officer received four earpieces, two for the right ear and two for the left ear. Officers could insert the receiver into the ear canal and place the ear mold in front to cover the device. (p. 108)
Robert Wallace and H. Keith Melton, Spycraft: The Secret History of the CIA's Spytechs from Communism to Al Qaeda (New York: Plume, 2009).
You can read the CIA's version of Trigon operation in which Peterson was involved here. And you can find Martha Peterson's book, Widow Spy, on Amazon.
Of course, the technology is much more advanced forty years later. Now, you just get one surgical implant that can be updated to cover all the new technologies.
Ha-ha. Just kidding.
I think.

New York, NY 10002
DODGEgallery is pleased to present Balls to the Wall, a group exhibition with Appau Junior Boakye-Yiadom, Tim Davis, Leah Dixon, Dario Escobar, Leo Fitzmaurice, Nina Katchadourian and Lisa Young. Balls to the Wall explores the intersection of art, labor, athleticism, humor and the body. Seemingly opposite, art and sport collide, expressing the physical and mental demands of the body and spirit.
Athletics play a significant role in Western culture and are introduced to us from a young age, whether through actual participation, attendance or media observation, which for some develops into intense vicarious engagement. Conditioned to engage with sports from early development, the high of participation and ultimate glory of winning is instilled alongside the fear of failure and rejection. Dario Escobar's Bicho No. 4, a ping pong paddle that is disjointed and broken but re-hinged and folded as a means to "fix" or "heal" it, but is ultimately rendered unusable for its original intent. Becoming nothing more than an absurd object for viewership, Bicho No. 4 plays into the fear of failure, albeit humorously, by exemplifying defeat from the outset.
Prescribing to a team often eases these extremes found in solitude with that of a communal solidarity. Winning becomes more celebratory with a squad and losing becomes a shared burden. Solitude is highlighted in Tim Davis' Upstate New York Olympics as he conceives and executes his own sports, from "Rusty Pipe Drag" to "National Geographic Gymnastics," all of which are played in solitude and filmed by a stationary camera—the antithesis of the modern Olympics. Presented on three large screens mimicking the layout of a sports bar, Davis invites the viewer into a large-scale consumption of his struggle. The futility of these events only heightens the viewer's sense of Davis' isolation; however, by watching the recordings, Davis' audience, though removed by time and location, becomes his team—rooting for him, laughing at his humorous choice of exercises, and sharing in relief when he's successful and empathy when he "fails". Lacking opponents, Davis' is competitive with himself and his challenge is in the tasks that he has self-assigned and his drive amidst seclusion.
The participants are not the sole figures in sport; the spectator plays a significant role. One selects (or is born into) a team to follow, support and watch. A sense of community is found within fellow fans through watching the wins and losses as a group. Leo Fitzmaurice's soccer (football) jerseys made of folded cigarette cartons speak to the cultural obsession of watching sports whilst sitting in a bar/pub and entertaining vices that premier athletes are meant to abstain from. Whilst watching athletes exert themselves physically in ways unfathomable to the common person, the spectator enthusiastically consumes alcohol, fast food and cigarettes in solidarity with fellow fans. Presented as a series, the miniature jerseys call to the other element of consumption—memorabilia. A massive market is dedicated to the ownership of various sports/team paraphernalia from jerseys to balls to hats, Fitzmaurice gives us these items out of an everyday piece of trash, highlighting the kitsch aspect of the collectable.
The game of sport harkens to that of battle with two (or more) contending forces/teams. Leah Dixon's Chaos in the Sky and Comfort on the Floor, directly references notions of modern warfare with bomb imagery inlaid on yoga mats. A practice that is defined by leaving the body behind and connecting to the spirit, yoga strives toward a peaceful existence. Dixon's mats, the very object that the body is grounded on in practice, depict imagery that mimics the graphics of video games, a consumer avenue through which war has become a part of our collective conscience. The flat graphics integrated into the yoga mat leave the question open as to what gains precedence here. The material composition proposes a means for defusing and conquering, as if through practice and repetition one can control reactions to the influx of violent imagery—or be consumed by it.
Sweat, labor, practice and fine tweaking can be found across all levels of athletics, not just the elite. Sport can easily become an obsession; athletes by many standards would be considered unstable, always seeking to reach the next level with a relentless ambition. Nina Katchadourian's piece, Mallory's Words, depicts the legendary mountaineer George Mallory's famous response to the question, "Why do you want to climb Mt. Everest?" His reply, "Because it's there," provides the form for the installation, made entirely of rock climbing holds that ascend the wall of the inner gallery as if reaching for the unattainable. Here, Katchadourian
humorously makes language material, though not functional.
The constant strive towards perfection speaks broadly to the human spirit. The notion of continually laboring towards the unachievable goal of perfection finds grace in triumph and humility in defeat. Moments of loss provide grounding and context for those of reward. Lisa Young's Lyra Angelica pays homage to the figure skater, Michelle Kwan. An athlete who was repeatedly heralded to win it all but always fell just short of the gold. In Lyra Angelica Young splits the screen into four different performances of the same routine so the viewer can watch as Kwan comes off pace, fails and triumphs. As spectators, our vicarious participation is guided and dramatized by the choreography of multiple images and the announcers' audio recordings. Young tunes in and out of the audio of each performance at specific points to hear the sensationalization alongside the genuine support and encouragement of each respective broadcaster. Young's selection of her subject highlights this obsession of grinding towards perfection. The sport itself, figure skating, is one that is extremely physically demanding but meant to look absolutely effortless.
Athletics and labor merge through the intense requirements of the body. Appau Junior Boakye-Yiadom uses the tools of labor, a mop and paint with the densest of sport equipment, a bowling ball in Melon n Ball (Mop). Despite its initial absurdity, Boakye-Yiadom presents the viewer with a form at human scale, as if upside down. He has rendered both the tools of labor and sport unusable, denoting their gained futility. By displaying the objects on a pedestal in a plexi case, Boakye-Yiadom relegates and simultaneously immortalizes them like trophies or pieces of memorabilia furthering their newly impotent existence.
Each of the artists in Balls to the Wall taps into the shared human experience of athletics as a means to express the balance and contradictions between aspirations and limitations. Exploring the elements of team, labor, perfection and defeat, they have all chosen sports that are less than mainstream in this country. By not tackling one of the big three—baseball, basketball and football—the exhibition edges towards the experience of obscurity. Each artist has found beauty and often humor in the highs and lows of their representations, perhaps connecting to the greater human condition.
Appau Junior Boakye-Yiadom was born In London, England, in 1984. He received a BA (Hons) from Winchester School of Art in 2005 and Post Graduate Diploma from The Royal Academy Schools in 2008.

How should small business owners handle their customer databases?
Whether you are a small or large company, your lists are your lifeblood.
And the maintenance and management of them often becomes one of those activities that continually falls to the bottom of that endless list. And this is a huge mistake – because it affects sales outreach and marketing in an extremely negative way.
Our company provides different types of marketing support for event producers, media companies, associations, and others.
Telemarketing has become a large component of our company's projects - and one thing I have noticed in doing this for about 7 years - is that many of the lists we receive for calling are terrible...
We call people who have been gone for companies for years, or worse yet - have died years before. It has led me to wonder about how companies can and should refresh and renew their lists on a regular basis.
Arguably, for media companies, their lists are their bread and butter - they sell access to their advertisers and exhibitors and their lists need to be current, accurate and well researched.
Sponsors, advertisers and exhibitors now expect a much more personal experience - where number of leads is much less important than reaching the right contact.
But this is also true of other companies – whether business-to-business or business-to-consumer – you cannot be successful if you don't know who your customer is.
There are other list issues as well. Very few seem to segment their lists - so it is not always easy to pull a prospect list that really fits the need - so we tend to contact everyone.
No wonder people unsubscribe - and there is such high list fatigue!
The answer is a very tedious process - especially when it has not been done for a long time or ever. Few companies can afford to free up their already busy employees to tackle a project like this. My contention is - you cannot afford NOT to do it.
If we don't do it - we are living in a constant state of denial - telling our clients that our list is over 100,000 (or whatever) - when 20,000 or more of the names are not viable. We are kidding them and ourselves - those lists are not useful for anyone and affect the success of your campaigns and events.
What is the answer?
Be honest with yourself on your lists - and take action. We have worked with many of our clients on list building and refreshing - as well list cleanup and verification. Or - do it in-house - but make sure it gets done.
The longer you wait, the worse it will be.
For us - we call the lists as given to us - and try to correct them where we can. But, we hate to do projects that have bad lists - because it adversely affects our call campaigns. Our goal in calling is to assist you with your marketing - and reaching out to the wrong people just wastes your (the client's) money....
Is this something that has affected your company? What have you found to be most effective in your industry?

You wanted to talk to me. In the same way as I wanted to talk to you. It didn't help that we were always surrounded by people who loved us, who showered affection on us like we were their cats. (We were two cats, kept by perfectly nice people who knew how to love, and maybe much better than us. They filled our beds with fresh flowers when we'd be asleep, left long, coloured feathers alongside letters on the side table for us to wake up and read. I had close to 300 feathers in my bedside drawer when I walked out of my marriage.) Us cats would be attending parties and soirees and all manner of everything together those days, gliding up the walls and across the ceilings in our minds to come face to face with each other. Your eyes chased me, held my gaze, then tied me up with the ropes of some song playing inside your head. You'd light up at one end of the room; I would leave my body and join you there; if someone saw me then, he would notice my face gone blank, my eyes two empty rooms connected by a jammed door. And for all these risks taken, you'd reward me with silence. You wouldn't say a word, just smiled a thin-lipped smile. I would feel loved and mocked, wanted-unwanted, all at once. You would have me in knots of the most romantic variety. And, by the next morning's post, you'd send me the song you'd tied me up with. A dirty postcard with a box full of burnt-down cigarettes. I loved sniffing the remains of your nicotine breath. ©MinakshiThakur 2013
Postcard: 'In a manner of speaking' sung by Nouvelle Vague.
In a Manner of speaking
I just want to say
That I could never forget the way
You told me everything
By saying nothing
In a manner of speaking
I don't understand
How love in silence becomes reprimand
But the way that i feel about you
Is beyond words
Oh give me the words
Give me the words
But tell me nothing
Ohohohoh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything
In a manner of speaking
Semantics won't do
In this life that we live we only make do
And the way that we feel
Might have to be sacrified
So in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
That just like you I should find a way
To tell you everything
By saying nothing.

Speak up to make upgraded A47 a reality, business leaders told
PUBLISHED: 20:46 05 February 2016 | UPDATED: 20:50 05 February 2016
Archant Norfolk 2016
The campaigning spirit that secured the dualling of the A11 must be rekindled to make an upgraded A47 a reality, business leaders have been told.
Could business funding pot be the answer to improving schools?
A cash pot funded by businesses could be one way to help raise the standard of education in Norfolk, an MP has said.
George Freeman proposed the idea during a discussion about young people and skills with Chloe Smith, saying that businesses keen to ensure they have a skilled and motivated future workforce could contribute to the pot as the county climbs the national league tables. The money could be used to recruit high-quality heads or promote the county as a destination for ambitious teachers.
Mr Freeman said the county needed to "attract, inspire and retain" the best teaching talent.
He said: "Given that our businesses have a stake in educational standards, what about getting together to provide leadership support and a pot of funding for an ambitious teacher recruitment campaign and to support turn-around schools to take us from the bottom three nationally to the top three?"
The campaign Educate Norfolk was launched last year by heads' associations to entice teachers to the county.
The call came from South West Norfolk MP Elizabeth Truss, who described improvements to the road as "mission critical" for the county, and urged businesses to support MPs' efforts by applying the pressure to government.
Addressing more than 100 business and education leaders at Norfolk Chamber of Commerce's annual MPs event at Sprowston Manor, she said the voice of business could help bring forward the start of work on the £300m upgrade, announced in 2014.
"I would suggest we work with all the businesses in this room to make as much noise as possible," she said.
"What was really successful with the A11 campaign was we had businesses by the side of the road saying 'We need this'."
Highways England is working on a feasibility study for upgrades to six sections of the road, with public consultation expected in 2017.
"We are having meetings but we need some noise from businesses putting strongly-worded letters into government, saying 'This is mission critical'," added Ms Truss.
She was supported by Great Yarmouth MP Brandon Lewis and Broadland's Keith Simpson during a question-and-answer session focusing on economic growth.
In an afternoon of wide-ranging debate, senior figures from the business world challenged seven of Norfolk's MPs on issues from housing and apprenticeships to exports and the EU referendum.
North Norfolk MP Norman Lamb and North West Norfolk MP Henry Bellingham discussed the need for improved transport and communications infrastructure to promote Norfolk nationally and globally, while Mid Norfolk's George Freeman and Norwich North's Chloe Smith asked how to raise aspiration among the county's young people.
Caroline Williams, chief executive of Norfolk Chamber of Commerce, welcomed the A47 call to action.
"We underestimate the power of our own voice and our own passion to help MPs," she said.
"Sometimes you get fed up of talking about the A11, but actually it was business that got it over the line."
Chris Starkie, managing director of the New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership, echoed the importance of businesses speaking as one.
"It's fantastic to have MPs joined up and working together with local authorities, but you need the business voice because it's the businesses who will generate the wealth which will justify the investment in the first place," he said.

Nature Protection Minister Aramayis Grigoryan received Caucasus Nature Fund (CNF) Executive Director Geof Giacomini and National Coordinator Arman Vermsihyan. They discussed the material and technical needs of the specially protected areas of nature (SPEN) and reduction of adversary effect on the ecosystem: Aramayis Grigoryan particularly outlined that the population living nearby the specially protecting areas of nature experience problems with fuel, which forces them to proceed to illegal tree felling: 'It's possible to regulate through collecting fallen deadwood in Dilijan and processing the forests taken out of flooded areas in Sevan. With the introduction of necessary equipment it would be possible to obtain alternative fuel on the spot and to reduce illegal tree felling cases in specially protected areas of nature. This important environmental measure will promote the preservation of the ecosystem, as well as will make the social problems of community residents a bit easier,' as Information and Public Relations Department of Nature Protection Ministry informs.

Hindus are celebrating the festival of Holi by painting each other in bright colors, distributing sweets and squirting water at one another. The holiday, celebrated mainly in India and Nepal, marks the beginning of spring and the triumph of good over evil. Bonfires are set on the eve of Holi, and the next day Hindus throw colored dry powder and water in celebration.
Here are some images from the festival.

Here's Sen. Orrin Hatch trying to explain why he supported an insurance mandate in 1993 and now he suddenly finds it unconstitutional:
HATCH: Well, it really wasn't. We were fighting Hillarycare at that time. And I don't think anyone centered on it, I certainly didn't. That was 17 years ago. But since then, and with the advent of this particular bill, really seeing how much they're depending on an unconstitutional approach to it, yea, naturally I got into it, got into it on this issue.
See, 17 years ago we were against the Clinton health plan so we embraced the mandate. Now we're against the Obama health plan, so we're against the mandate because he's for it. See, it's a perfectly principled position — the principle being that we say whatever we need to say at any given time to make our opponents look bad.

Netherlands defender Joris Mathijsen and playmaker Wesley Sneijder are both expected to be available for their side's Group B encounter with Germany on Wednesday after completing a training session on Sunday.
The Malaga stopper has been struggling with a hamstring injury which ruled him out of the Oranje's opening match against Denmark on Saturday.
The Dutch starting XI that lost 1-0 to Morten Olsen's men had a short and peaceful training session, while Mathijsen trained for the full session with the substitutes.
Coach Bert van Marwijk revealed in a press conference on Friday that he was confident that the 32-year-old would be available to face Germany.
He told reporters: "It is going well for him, he is making progress and after speaking with the medical staff I have decided to keep him in the team."
Meanwhile, Sneijder, who had complained of a pain in his leg after the match and held long discussions with Van Marwijk, trained individually.Follow GOAL.COM USA on
