Reasons For Selecting Induction lights for your Needs
People have been comparing LED and induction, questioning which is better and which option to chose? There are some valid reasons which give an edge to induction lights over LED. The first reason is induction lights use less electricity than compared to led lights. Which means in long term the usage of induction lights will save you some good amount of money on electricity
Second reason to prefer induction lights is induction lights use half of the watts than led to produce the equal (and sometimes more) lumens. Third reason to choose induction is the amount of heat which induction produces, which is definitely lesser than led lights. The fourth reason to avoid led lights over induction is that led lights have less life than compared to induction lights. This means one will need to change led lights more frequently which will also lead to increase in cost.
These are some major factors which empower induction lights over led and make led a lower degree preference. Importantly when planning to buy induction lights choosing the right induction lighting manufacturer is equally important as the products may vary from company to company.

Gold and Crude Oil Rise On Inflation Worries
NEW YORK -- Gold and crude-oil futures jumped on a combination of inflation worries, tight energy supply and technical buying.
Analysts have said for some time that the two commodities have been steadily losing their historic price correlation to one another. However, they said Monday was a rare demonstration that crude oil can still help spur sagging gold futures.

6 Cheap or Free Tips to Sell Your House Fast
There are many means to enhance your possibilities to sell my house fast Marietta, GA. And while the easiest way is to just reduce the price, many people are not eager or able to do that. If you are just one of those people, look into these 6 low or no charge means to offer your home fast for the most cash money.
Maintain it Tidy
I put this first since it is both one of the most essential as well as the very least costly. Your home has to be kept so clean that you wouldn't have an issue eating off every surface. I understand this is a substantial discomfort to preserve, but it's so vital that I ensure you will certainly not offer your house as fast if you don't keep it completely tidy.
Make it smell great
This accompanies the last tip as a clean house will definitely scent much better, yet if you have lingering odors, then cleaning might not suffice. If when you're away from home for some time and you smell anything bad when you return after that everybody seeing your house will certainly assume it smells ten times even worse than you do. Take into consideration working with a rug cleansing company and also paying additional for the odor removal option. You can likewise rent a room smell remover that tidies up the ozone. I've even listened to these machines have actually gotten rid of feline urine odor besides the rug was changed. If all else stops working or you just intend to add that pleasant touch, bake some cookies or bread before every show. Not just does your house scent much better, yet you could put out some cookies to further please theirs detects.
Removing scrap
I understand you love all your stuff. If you didn't why would you have so much of it? Problem is, no person viewing your house wishes to see any of it and also it makes your house appearance untidy and also little. If you can not part with your old senior high school trophies completely, a minimum of getting a friend to keep them for you or rent out a storage device for a couple of months till you relocate them to your brand-new house.
Along with removing the mess, you want to remove every picture that nobody else would desire in their house. I understand you think your five-year-old' picture of Santa Condition is cute, however, nobody else would hang it on their fridge. That goes double for the 12 X 15 of Aunt Betty hanging in the hallway.
Clear out your storage rooms
This is not trying to be sexist by any means, however, most women love huge closets. What's the very best method to make your wardrobes look larger? Get a minimum of half of the clothing. Preferably you want to have 2 inches in between each hanger and plenty of room left open on the floor. Just select the clothes you recognize you'll require as well as put the remainder right into storage.
I'm sure you have actually listened to "You never ever obtain a 2nd possibility making an impression." Well, that is true for when you wish to sell your house fast. When individuals pull up to your house, you desire them to intend to come inside. I have actually essentially pulled up to view a house before as well as informed the Real estate professional to just keep driving. Simply looking at exactly how they didn't maintain the outside informed me it wasn't also worth going inside. You do not need to spend a lot of money to do this. Simply see to it everything is reduced, weeded, as well as manicured flawlessly, as well as perhaps invest a couple of dollars on compost and also flowers.
Do it all to Market Your House Fast
You ought to be able to do all the above for less than $300, with the perspective to boost the worth of your home by thousands. Yes, it will take a great deal of job, yet be considering the financial gain and the increased possibility of selling your house fast, right worth the effort.

Software as a Service
Subscribing to PerfectTIME
Some organizations prefer to avoid the initial capital expenditure required to own PerfectTIME and instead choose our SaaS model, which consists of predictable, ongoing monthly payments. In this arrangement, companies are not required to perform the maintenance associated with system ownership, which frees internal IT staff to focus on core business systems. This model allows organizations to reap the benefits of sophisticated time and attendance software while deflecting IT governance and upkeep.
For these organizations, we offer PerfectTIME on a per-employee, per-month basis. You have the option of purchasing or renting any hardware (biometric terminals, etc.) while we maintain the software and performing system upgrades. This model grants you the same functionality, flexibility, and control you get with our On-Premises model, but with nominal IT maintenance requirements and affordable monthly payments.
Owning Your PerfectTIME Solution
Other organizations prefer to "own" their time and attendance application software (including hardware for time-entry portals), and to manage and maintain the software onsite. Some prefer the initial capital expense of this traditional software model, so that they can own the software and pay predictable annual maintenance fees.
For these companies, we offer PerfectTIME through an On-Premises software model. Due to it's streamlined design and our seamless implementation program, PerfectTIME is easy to install and maintain. Companies opting for the On-Premises model can manage the system with a fraction of the internal IT staff time required by other systems.
"We chose PerfectTIME because we wanted a robust and flexible time and attendance solution that would enable us to manage costs while simultaneously delivering the quality of care for which we are known."

This week I've been making changes. While the chart may not be showing tremendous drops in weight, It does show a fantastic increase in the amount I'm walking about – and by god, my feet and my calves can feel it. What the chart doesn't show is that I also managed to stop taking nicotine lozenges this week, for the first time in five years.
So, yes, success. And while I may not be making dramatic changes in my diet – dammit – the fact that I'm walking around a hell of a lot more and making these healthy choices when it comes to anything else but my diet should help. It's very early days, and god knows that I'm the king of wild promises with very little delivery, so time and proof will tell. There's no hiding it, if I'm not doing the miles, the graph will show it.

Leah Sharibu, one of the students kidnapped by Boko Haram, refused to denounce her Christian faith and was the only person left in captivity when the Nigerian Government negotiated the release of other Muslim captives. It must be noted that Boko Haram's war against Nigeria is not being waged with assumed conventions typical of such wars in other climes. It is certain, given Boko Haram's antecedents, that Leah Sharibu would have suffered rape and torture, all in the attempt to break her will and succumb to Boko Haram's terror, more-so when she is all alone. Yet, the central government ensured her retention in captivity by playing the ostrich on the question of faith and the re-definition of Nigeria's architecture of State, usually referred to as "restructuring".
Christians for Yoruba Nation (CYN) is a platform for concerned Christians in general and Yoruba Christians in particular, to re-establish the God-given Yoruba Nation and her Diaspora within the context of the on-going attempts at Redefining the Nigerian Nation-State. It recognizes the Yoruba Nation as a multi-religious society with all her citizens and residents having the freedom of worship, more-so when the Yoruba Society has a tradition and Global reputation of religious tolerance within itself.
Despite this context, CYN posits that the Nigerian Government is complicit in Leah Sharibu's travails, having negotiated the release of other captives, mainly Muslims. There is no way such negotiations would be conducted and concluded without Leah Sharibu's question coming up. That the Nigerian Government would concede retaining Leah Sharibu in captivity reflects the intersection of Faith and the National Question.
Boko Haram is a terrorist organization whose political strategy is aimed at intimidating the State or a People into submission; this having been demonstrated by Fulani herdsmen terrorism in various parts of Nigeria. Furthermore, while Boko Haram translates into anti-Western education, the same group is all at ease utilizing military weapons developed through the same western educational institutions. What these means is that Boko Haram is fighting a political battle for the control of the North, as part of the internal conflicts within northern political establishment as to which faction of the establishment will be able to impose its dominance on the rest and by so doing, dominate Nigeria.
A former National Security Adviser, General Andrew Owoye Azazi confidently claimed that Boko Haram was being sponsored by those in the PDP government; shortly thereafter, he died in a mysterious helicopter crash. Recently, a former Defense Minister, General Theophilus Danjuma also confidently claimed that the Nigerian army is complicit in terrorist activities in the north.
These two gentlemen know what they were talking about, considering their pedigree in Nigeria's different governments and their roles within the Nigerian military; a military established for the maintenance of Hausa-Fulani or "Northern" dominance of Nigeria. This military had carried out this responsibility with the active connivance of these two generals at various times in Nigeria's history and were therefore in a good position to know the extent of the military's involvement in this political quest.
This involvement had manifested in the various military interventions in Nigeria's political direction, up till the present dispensation, where Boko Haram became a force to reckon with after it became obvious that the PDP as a military concoction cannot sustain northern hegemony for a considerable amount of time, hence the strengthening of Boko Haram as a "non-state actor" with the ability to intimidate the State while the government disarmed civilian fighters who had shown enough capability to destroy the Boko Haram menace.
Christians in Northern Nigeria exist under the double tyranny of the political and religious establishment, now aided by a militarism under the cover of Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen terrorism, which had seen Christians being characterized as minorities and therefore susceptible to all sorts of atrocities at the hands of these terrorists with the Central Government keeping a safe distance thereby denying them justice.
Leah Sharibu was completely unprepared for her abduction and was caught unawares; yet she refused to renounce her faith, to such an extent that she would also declare, as Queen Esther did, "If I perish, I perish", and this, despite living within a territory that had and continue to undergo terrorist activity either from Boko Haram or Fulani herdsmen. While it may be tempting to compare Leah Sharibu with Queen Esther, we must be aware of the circumstances that gave rise to the Queen, especially having been "made" to see her role as crucial in the emancipation of her people; she went into the battle with her eyes wide open and was therefore ready for any consequences hence her famous declaration, to wit, "if I perish, I perish".
What makes Leah Sharibu's resistance unique is the courage she brought into the picture; which meant that she knew her God, buoyed by her parents' faithfulness in bringing her up in the faith. Yet, the success of her resistance would lie in the practical demonstration of resistance by Christians in the north acting in concert with others in their Nationality and which must necessarily take on the form of a political action which is the only way to combat the tyranny.
Which brings up the question as to what those of us Christians on the "outside" can do to ensure that her ordeal is not only not in vain but translated into emancipation of her own people from the clutches of tyranny ravaging the north. It can be said that it is Leah today, who will it be tomorrow? Besides, several instances abound where Christians were summarily executed either by Boko Haram, Fulani herdsmen terrorists or Islamic fundamentalists. These had become common happenstance in the north.
Christians for Yoruba Nation therefore calls on Christians in the North to begin to act on behalf of their Nationalities, not just as Christians fighting for the faith amid political terrorism but as purveyors of the Light that will necessarily free their various Peoples from the clutches of darkness enveloping the region.
The question may be asked as to how this is to be done? The short answer is for Christians in Nigeria and especially in the north, to be in the vanguard of the Re-Defining process that will see to the return of the Nations and Nationalities to their God-given environment and not be circumscribed by any notion of Nigeria being a creation of God, because Nigeria was and is NOT a creation of God.
By this we know, "So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west and His glory from the rising of the sun; when the enemy comes in like a flood (as Boko Haram, Fulani Herdsmen and central government's lackadaisical approach), the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him"
In this instance, the northern Christian is the standard. It is therefore not enough for Christians to simply advocate possession of a permanent voter's card; for there must be a reason for such possession. That reason, based on extant circumstances, cannot be simply voting for any candidate with any promises, but anchored on God's intended purpose for the Nations. This is the only way to prevent terrorism from being used to sustain an architecture of State that has no justice to dispense to her citizens.

12 Dec Day 26 A Christmas Story
"My father worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium, a master."
I am such a geek about this movie I get a joy rush just looking at the picture. If there is a more quotable movie on the planet I can't think of one. Nothing gets me in the holiday spirit faster than this movie. I have seen it so many times I can recite it – but my family finds that annoying.
I think there is just something so wonderful about watching loving family dysfunction played out on the big screen. It's also great to go back to the mindset of being a kid and what school, Christmas and family is like from that point of view. I love the wit and humor of the narrator and how he so seriously breaks down the politics of double and triple dog dares on the playground. In my dreams I'm capable of writing that kind of witty dialogue.
Watching this movie is one of my most cherished holiday rituals. A couple of years ago we took this ritual to another level when we watched it outside under the stars complete with snow, hot chocolate and cookies out at Palmetto Bluff. What a blast! Watching A Christmas Story at home in my pj's is great but watching with a whole group of fellow A Christmas Story lovers outside at night in beautiful Palmetto Bluff is unforgettable. Tonight will be the third year we continue this family tradition. If you haven't had the opportunity to experience this event please treat yourself. You can get more info here.
If you need additional holiday inspiration my other favorite Christmas movies are Christmas Vacation, Elf, Love Actually and The Family Stone. I am also embarrassed to admit I sometimes watch the cheesy "Lifetime -ish" holiday movies like Holiday in Handcuffs which stars Melissa Joan Hart and the guy from Saved by the Bell. Don't tell anyone.
Tonight I will forget about the stress of this week and I will be surrounded by friends and kindred spirits in my full A Christmas Story Glory. Hopefully it will be loud enough nobody will hear me reciting the words. 🙂
Let the fun begin!

Born in Kingston upon Hull East Yorkshire
Moved to Gomersal, West Yorkshire at the age of 11 where I was introduced to the world of 'Brass Bands'. Once I had been taught the 'C' scale I was in the band (still not learnt any other scales) "Thomas Burnleys and son" prize Silver Band". I fell in love with brass bands (or was it the pint after practice? Umm) Sadly this is one of the many bands that are now disbanded.
Moved over to Lancashire/Cheshire in my late teens, (still doing missionary work with the natives).
I still love the sound and playing in a brass band (and the pint after).
I am very proud to be playing with Wingates Band and very honoured to have the responsibility as the Band Sergeant.

Esther Karwal:
Esther was riding her bicycle in a car-bike shared lane in Seattle when an oncoming car attempted to make a left turn across her path, causing a collision. As a result of the collision, Esther suffered injuries to her face, mouth, back, neck and shoulders. She fractured her two teeth, which were repaired surgically.
The driver's insurance was Allstate, which always puts up a fight, but we were able to demonstrate that the collision was 100% the driver's fault, and that all of the treatment was a direct result of this incident. After seeing that we were prepared to present Esther's case to a jury, Allstate made a fair settlement offer and we were able to settle.
Thanks to our quick intervention, we were able to make sure Esther got all of the medical treatment she needed, and that she got a good recovery for her injuries.
Esther Karwal
"Matthew Dubin and Becca La Liberte helped settle my case in an efficient and timely manner. They were always in contact with me throughout the entire duration, filling me in on what was going on. They have a great staff who are always willing to answer questions and do what they can to help. I don't believe that my settlement would be where it is now without them!" - Esther Karwal

Banks stress-testing portfolios against sovereign default
Risk roulette
The life of Shakespeare's Hamlet is underpinned by a single, unwavering certainty – that he will succeed his father on Denmark's throne. When his uncle takes the crown instead, the young prince is plagued by doubts and possibilities – suddenly, it seems, anything can happen.
Banks now find themselves in a similar situation: the conviction that eurozone governments are risk-free has been overturned, and the world suddenly looks very different. If Greece can default, so can Portugal – maybe even

WOW, we got a VERY financially minded person here
Before I jump into this question (so people just don't tear me apart for trying to be greedy, because let's face it- running a restaurant is NOT the best way to make money), when running a restaurant we run it considering the LAW OF AVERAGES. Sure, you COULD put ALL items that are super profitable on, but it may not represent a great selection of flavors+options that people want. So there is a BALANCE OF IT ALL.
The quick answer to your question: our Crispy Tofu Balls. Tofu is cheap, it yields a lot BUT the thing to consider is that it has one of our highest labor costs too because tofu is docile, not incredibly malleable and needs to be handle gently.
Percentage wise profit to cost, still the Tofu Balls. it wins this battle by a LONG shot literally because of the yield (but again because of that yield we incur more labor though too). One case of tofu generates at LEAST 60 appetizer orders or more for us.
Shortest dish: the Lemongrass Tofu might be the shortest, but doesn't get ordered as much (but it is delicious)
Longest dish: probably the Singaporean Chili Crab (our other signature dish). The sauce has 15 different ingredients in it, takes about 4 hours BUT over 2 days to make WITH the crab being the last ingredient to add once it's called out for an order
As far as the correlation: most DEFINITELY. Time is MONEY, and labor cost is the most variable of costs so while something may not take THAT much time. we're in the business of volume so take 5 minutes for prep of one time and multiply that by 100 times over the week, not including the time to actually clean up, get ready, ACTUALLY service the dining room too...
Why am I in the restaurant business again?? LOL
Starry_Kitchen14 karma
I should clarify: "not so cute", "unpaid" and "they're graduated and were our interns like 3 years ago"
Well, the major change will be ENVIRONMENT. We haven't had a place that TRULY felt like it was ours. People don't put much stock in a way a place feels all the time, but we think it's even MORE important than the food because it's sometimes WHY people come back, bring people, and enjoy themselves.
The space we're looking at we want to do the following: -open the kitchen, knock out the wall -install a walk-in cooler -update all the electrical+plumbing -re-do the bar (yeah, there's a bar - so THAT is an answer to your question too: we will FINALLY have beer+wine to off-set the expensive costs of food) -and thensome (because you don't want to read what I would be spending if we got the money).
To make more money: actually open consistently (most likely 6 if not 7 days a week) to take people whenever they want so they DON'T have to plan. The thing that does is helps us amortize (big WORD) the cost of all our kitchen labor too. We don't have to worry about perishables and can move product consistently in-and-out and increase our profits in the long run. Also, just being open more allows us to serve more people and figure out how to make every day profitable too.
We would also re-implement POS systems, hire management to deal with the finances+operations nitty gritty that I'm frankly not fond of (I understand it, I just don't like dealing with it as much as the big picture planning for the restaurant). We'd also consider expanding some of the options on the menu to allow for a little bit more variety to appeal to a larger crowd do (but remain focused).
And oh yeah, pay people APPROPRIATE wages so they can be happy to grow the business and grow with it. That's a BIG one people discount all the time. Human capital, in a business of hospitality is of UTMOST importance, and we can finally make our staff.. just a lil bit happier to let them know they're appreciated ;)
Does that help "my FORMER interns?!?"
Starry_Kitchen13 karma
haha they wish!
Starry_Kitchen13 karma
WOW - is that geared towards the guy asking or me? I think it's a fair+interesting question (but yeah, fairly capitalist too.. we ultimately serve food for the LOOOOVE ;D)
Starry_Kitchen12 karma
By FAR, the Crispy Tofu Balls is our MOST POPULAR dish. So popular we call it "the Game Changer!" For people that hate tofu/deplore it/can't stand it.. they don't know why they LIKE IT!
(and it actually was one of the last dishes we created out of our illegal+underground apartment too _)

The adventure continues! Living off the USDA's Food Plan grocery budget is a bit easier than I thought it would be. We've been focused on our weekly menu plan and making an effort to not stray too far from it. We are not eating out as much as we were. {Though we did have an awesome date night in Boston complete with dinner at P.F. Chang's!}
You'll recall from last week's post that our total grocery expense was up to $398.25. We took a field trip to Whole Foods last week and a quick trip to Trader Joe's, spending an additional $125.48. Now we're looking at $464.56; and I still have to shop for the big Thanksgiving feast. There is $254.83 remaining in our grocery budget for this month, and only six days left. Even with our Thanksgiving feast, I'm sure we'll have money leftover. {Which has me super excited!!}
This is what we'll eat this week:
Monday: Chopped salad with Chicken
Tuesday: Chicken Enchilada Bake (I made this a few weeks ago and froze it. I love getting two meals while only working for one!)
Wednesday: There will be enough time for cooking on Thursday, tonight we'll treat ourselves and take advantage of our local pizza shop's $5 pizza offering.
Thursday: A typical Thanksgiving meal with homemade cranberry sauce, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin cheesecake.
Friday: Leftover feast
Saturday: I'm doing father-daughter bonding with my dad at the Bruins game! Leaving The Texan and The Boy on their own. Maybe steak with mashed potatoes?
Sunday: The Pioneer Woman's turkey tetrazzini. I watched her make this on a recent show, it looked so amazing.
With the rising cost of food, do you find yourself paying closer attention to your food budget? How much does your family spend per month?

Scape Zine specialises in Young Adult speculative fiction and poetry:
All Scape fiction and poetry must contain a speculative component. We're into sword and sorcery, urban fantasy, magical realism, hard sci-fi, cyberpunk, alternate history, supernatural, myth and legend, post-apocalyptic, dark, light and all shades in between. If you can imagine it, we'll consider it. That being said, to catch our attention you're going to need to bring something fresh and edgy if your story features well-worn ideas such as vampires or time travel.
Young Adult fiction is an ever-growing field, and it's great to see a dedicated magazine like Scape Zine:
Scape's YA focus doesn't mean we want 'dumbed down' or 'censored' stories. Quite the opposite. YA for us is broadly defined. It means fiction that is relevant, meaningful and of particular interest to young people. We're not putting a specific age bracket on 'young people' and we aim for our publication to appeal to the 'young' and 'young at heart' alike.
They accept short fiction up to 8,000 words, and poetry up to 100 lines. Their pay rates are a generous 1 cent U.S. per word for original short stories, with a U.S. $10 minimum payment, and a flat $25 for poetry. Note that they pay via PayPal.

If you would have told me a year ago that I'd spend Sunday July 17th 2016 cleaning the floors of my very own apartment, I wouldn't have believed you.
Life changes quickly. I've spent much of today processing the fact that I now live in Long Beach. (!!!?) Moving out grows you up overnight. It's a mixed bag of emotions. I am so excited to be here, decorating and nesting, and making this 400 square ft. apartment a place that I genuinely love to spend time. Annnnd I am simultaneously stretched and scared and overwhelmed by all of the things. Like buying utensils and toilet paper.
This experience is entirely new for me. I am very quickly learning how to do everything from grocery shop for myself to putting all of my trust in Jesus and letting Him carry me through the parts that I don't understand. Like I said, it's a mixed bag. There's a different magnitude and weight to each and every thing.
In a lot of ways I feel like I am living dreams and making positive steps towards growth, but honestly, growing pains and adjustment periods are real and weird and lonely.
All the while I am overwhelmed with gratitude. It's crazy the things you get through that you never think you will.
These are the times I am going to tell my kids about someday. I never want to forget what the light looks like on the drive home.

dispensing holy water/
World's First Vending Machine Date: First century A.D.
How it works: A person puts a coin in a slot at the top of a box. The coin hits a metal lever, like a balance beam. On the other end of the beam is a string tied to a plug that stops a container of liquid. As the beam tilts from the weight of the coin, the string lifts the plug and dispenses the desired drink until the coin drops off the beam.
Quirk: It was devised to distribute Holy Water at temples, because "people were taking more Holy Water than they were paying for," Humphrey says.

Making of a family drama
Passion for theatre is what drives these three members of the Babbar clan (the money's still not great)brunch Updated: May 12, 2012 16:16 IST
"A two-wheeler, 9-to-5 routine wasn't for me"
For the longest time I believed that stars were from a different planet and I had to go there. My family had nothing to do with acting, cinema or theatre. But I was very sure that I did not want a typical two-wheeler family who live their 9-to-5 life happily. It just wasn't for me. So I convinced my dad to let me go to the National School of Drama.
I told him that after a three-year degree from there – since it was a government recognised institution – I would be eligible to get a secure government job if I didn't make it as an actor.
Sure enough, earning a livelihood after completing my course wasn't easy. I started with teaching acting, voice and speech at Kishore Namit Kapoor's school in Mumbai and doing small roles on TV until a show called Sea Hawks happened. After that offers from TV started pouring in, but I was stuck on films. But 'good roles' didn't come my way… So it was back to TV. CID, Balika Vadhu and now Crime Patrol. Life is good.
But real happiness, I realised, was on stage. Being a part of Ekjute for over five years has brought me happiness in more ways than one. I only wish I got the damaad treatment on stage as well.
Anup Soni: Actor and TV host, Anup is married to Juhi Babbar. Wants to do a play with his wife and him in the lead roles
Nadira Babbar: Actor, director. Founded theatre group Ekjute 30 years ago
Juhi Babbar Soni: Actor. Raj and Nadira Babbar's daughter tried her luck in films, but didn't make much headway. Been doing theatre for over 13 years
"Theatre and its society were too 'open' for me"
Born and brought up in Lucknow, I was introduced to theatre at 19. My father and I had come to Delhi, and his friend Ebrahim Alkazi, director at the National School of Drama (NSD) at the time, told him to enroll me – and I signed up.
For a long time, I found theatre unnerving. I wasn't really orthodox, but this world was more "open and fast" by my standards. But gradually I adjusted. And of course I started loving the stage. That love has stayed intact all these years. My other love, Raj Babbar, also happened during my years at NSD. Our passion for theatre brought us closer.
Life was happy but not exactly comfortable. Theatre gave us a lot of satisfaction creatively, but our financial situation got tougher with each passing year. It was after Juhi was born that Raj decided to try out films. He did well, and so did we. But theatre remained our passion.
Five years later, around the same time that our son Arya was born, we founded our theatre group, Ekjute.
It's been 30 years now. The passion, intensity, the instant gratification and the high remain intact.
"I got two bit roles instead of the lead"
I believe I was born with acting in my genes. And though officially it has been about 13 years that I became a part of Ekjute, my association with it goes back much longer. Dad (Raj Babbar) never wanted me to act. A typical Punjabi father, he was rather stern about my not doing any "drama-shama". But as they say in films, "ma ke doodh aur baap ke khoon mein theatre hai", so how could I be far from it?
Of course it was only after I finished my formal education and got a degree from NIFT, Bombay in Costume and Fashion, that dad was finally convinced of my love for acting, and decided to produce my first film, Kaash Aap Hamare Hote. The film didn't do too well and the roles I got didn't impress me enough. And the stage, for me, held far more value.
But this wasn't easy. My mother is perhaps the toughest taskmaster I know. I get no liberties whatsoever. Initially some people thought that I would hog the spotlight simply because I am Nadira Babbar's daughter, but actually, I feel shortchanged most times. Especially when I'd be given a two bit role when I could play the lead! But all that training has helped me as an actress.

pierre marcolini, brussels
a visit to brussels isn't complete without a visit to a choclatier. this time i selected pierre marcolini whose store in la grand place du sablon is a work of art. as you enter the heavily air-conditioned environment the smell of chocolate starts to tempt and tease you as you peer into the beautiful glass cases of chocolates. macaroons and desserts.
the stairs to the first floor are lined with dove grey curtains which, coupled with the luxuriously deep carpet, makes you feel more as though you are entering an exclusive fashion boutique.
my last visit saw me buy a mixed box of his chocolates. this time i wanted something simpler, which would be a souvenir of my day away for david, who was back in london at work. these were exactly what i needed.

PtboCanada Restaurant Review: Elements/
It's a warm Friday evening and we find ourselves on the patio of Elements with some good friends for dinner. The patio is lively, yet very comfortable with soft lighting and comfortable seating.
Elements is one of the few restaurants in town offering a tapas menu. Tapas are little dishes great for sharing and originate from Spain; perfect for a relaxing evening meal filled with conversation, great friends and good wine. In addition to their very popular Tapas, Elements also offers a traditional menu focusing on gourmet and complex menu choices. The waitress tells us about the specials and we decide to save the Tapas menu for another evening.
We begin the meal with a couple of soups and the strawberry salad. The cucumber and avocado gazpacho is fresh, creamy and full of summer, but I love citrus so I miss the hint of lemon that I was expecting. The hot carrot and ginger soup is flavourful and the hint of cumin is a good balance with the ginger. My husband has the strawberry salad, which offers a great balance between the sweetness of the berries and the tartness of the citrus dressing.
For our main dishes, we try a couple of the evening's specials including the breast of chicken stuffed with cremini mushrooms, leeks, jasmine rice and duck confit crowned with an almond and blackberry reduction. Wow, what a mouthful! Delicious, although I'm not sure how the blackberries fit into the mix and I didn't quite wrap my taste buds around the duck confit—maybe I missed something.
Never mind though, those ingredients are not missed at all and as far as I'm concerned, this is the best main course of the evening. We sample the fettuccini with shrimp, fresh asparagus tips, spring onion and white wine cream sauce. The fresh pasta is perfect, courtesy of The Pasta Shop in Peterborough, and although we prefer our sauce a little thicker, this one was not over-powering and the asparagus is cooked just right with a tiny bit of crunch and light taste of freshness.
Finally, we languish in the perfection that is the Tournado "Michael"—AAA beef tenderloin with Crossroads Farm chèvre baked in a puff pasty collar finished with Port and Fig sauce. This dish is lovely and rich without being heavy; and the cheese in the perfectly baked pastry ensures the steak remains succulent; pure delight for any meat lover.
Possibly the best dish of the evening is the brandy infused orange crème brûlée. This dessert is smooth and creamy without being heavy and is the most decadent night cap you will ever experience.
For a luxurious dining experience, treat yourself to a night out at Elements where dinner out is more that just a meal out—it is a true experience.

STOCKTON - It will be a night of reflection and tearful goodbyes for the Pacific Tigers.
STOCKTON - It will be a night of reflection and tearful goodbyes for the Pacific Tigers.
Four Tigers - Jennifer Fath, Andrea Swanson, Claire McLeod and Arielle White - will make their final appearances as seniors at Spanos Center as Pacific (7-20, 4-10 Big West Conference) hosts UC Riverside (15-11, 8-5) at 4 p.m. today. Fath and Swanson will likely start, while McLeod (right foot) and White (right leg) remain out with stress fractures. Coach Lynne Roberts, in her fifth season, said Senior Night is special every year.
"It's a game where you want to play a little better and coach a little better for them," Roberts said. "It heightens your emotions a little bit."
Fath has had a tumultuous senior season, losing her starting shooting guard spot to freshman Gena Johnson two weeks ago. Fath said she was disappointed about losing her job because of a thumb injury, but she understands how well Johnson has played since.
"Seeing it all come to an end, there are a lot of different emotions with that," Fath said. "There has been a lot of disappointment and frustration (with the loss). I am a competitor and I would love to be out there, but if not being out there is the best way, then I have to accept that."
Fath has contributed since her first practice, playing in 108 of 114 possible games over the past four seasons, averaging 6.3 points per game.
"She's a tough kid in all senses, physically and mentally," Roberts said. "She wants to win more than she wants anything. We've really seen her grow up and she's mellowed a little bit."
Fath will graduate in May with a degree in sports medicine and plans to attend graduate school next fall. Swanson, one of Fath's best friends, has also had great moments for the Tigers, but ultimately her 6-foot-2 frame couldn't deal with the physical demands of playing Division I basketball after arriving from Heritage High School in Littleton, Colo. Swanson averaged 10.7 points in her first nine games as a freshman in 2007-08, but suffered a stress fracture in her right leg that ended that season. She's dealt with leg injuries in every season since.
"It was very frustrating and I didn't understand why it was happening at first," said Swanson, who plans to become a physical therapist after she graduates in May. "I sometimes wonder what it would have been like if my body could handle the stress of Division I basketball. (Tonight) will be a bittersweet thing because of the injuries and the frustrations of that."
Roberts said the program will miss Swanson.
"She's about as good a kid as you'll ever have," Roberts said. "She never causes a problem. She's the most low-maintenance, team-first kid I've ever been around. She's incredibly bright and driven."
McLeod and White have battled injuries this season, but both will graduate in May. McLeod plans on heading back home to Australia and entering a physiotherapy program, while White plans on heading back to Southern California and using her social sciences degree to work at a correctional facility.

Every now and again — almost every day, really — the Internet demands a head on a platter, and this week, it came for Robin Thicke's.
On Monday, VH1 advertised a Twitter Q. and A. with Mr. Thicke for the following day, asking fans to submit questions using the hashtag #AskThicke. That is a common enough celebrity publicity maneuver, a way of feigning transparency while remaining at a remove. But hey, transparency is on Mr. Thicke's mind: He has a new album teeming with emotional nudity to flog — "Paula" (Star Trak/Interscope), inspired by the continuing dissolution of his marriage to Paula Patton.
So the questions would be intimate, and the replies equally so, right? The Internet hive mind scoffs at such neat resolution.
What happened was a tsunami of anti-Thicke resentment: stored-up agita spurred by the sexual aggression in his 2013 hit "Blurred Lines"; frustration with how he dodged complicity for his eroticized duet with Miley Cyrus at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, leaving Ms. Cyrus as the stained one; and discomfort with his very public attempts to reconcile with Ms. Patton, from whom he is separated, because of his unspecified indiscretions.
The punches landed fast and furious. @ShelbyKnox: "How's your own personal feminist movement based on trivializing consent & promoting rape apology going these days?" @RachelMcKibbens: "On a scale of R. Kelly to Phil Spector, how do you intend to 'Get Her Back?' " @cluedont: "Are you even reading these? Or are you alone, gyrating against some furniture?"
Righteous anarchy and absurdist comedy dominated, and Mr. Thicke essentially ignored it all. Needless to say, barely anyone asked about "Paula," a wrong here remedied:
How much of the decision to record an album as singularly focused as "Paula" had to do with the sincerity of your pain, and how much of it was a desire to cleanse yourself of the experimentation that made your last album a breakout success, but also set in motion the domino fall of your personal life?
That song ("Give It 2 U"), with Kendrick Lamar and 2 Chainz, always made you kind of uncomfortable, didn't it?
Did you go out of your way to make "Paula" as musically unambitious as possible, so that people — one person — would Talmudically focus on the lyrics? But that said, that bit of lazy pseudo-bossa nova on "You're My Fantasy," is that a wink to Paula?
You've got a big voice so why are you underselling here? That exhausted, slightly haggard vocal edge on "Still Madly Crazy," that must have been tough to record, huh? (Between me and you, how many of these new songs are basically just demo recordings?)
On "Get Her Back," after whining "It's so hard," do you think that forcefully and sternly declaring, "But it doesn't have to be" makes your point more effectively than just uninterrupted groveling?
Do you think that people are on your side? Does enjoying this album require sympathy or schadenfreude?
If you pinpoint the moment when things went wrong, was it when you agreed to work with Pharrell? (Was it comforting to work solely with your longtime collaborator Pro Jay this time out?) Or was it when you agreed to the "Blurred Lines" video that involved nude models and balloons that paid tribute to your genitals?
What did you tell the women who sing backup on about half of this album? To taunt you? To sing to you as if you'd let them down? The lyric repeated ad nauseam by them on "Whatever I Want" — "I can do whatever I want" — is that something Paula told you? And the next line — "Kiss me kiss me kiss me" — is that wish fulfillment or a dangled carrot?
How scared are you, really?
Did you think it was cute to open "Love Can Grow Back" with a sly Miley reference: "You're way too young to dance like that in front of a man like me, baby"? Would using a lyric that began with "I'm way too old" instead have required too much self-awareness?
What was fame like? What leaky fissure inside of you did it exploit? What did it take for you to realize that you'd been changed?
You said that the recording of this album took just a couple of weeks, but given how tossed together some of the songs feel, musically and lyrically, and given that this is meant to be a grand gesture of love and reconciliation, shouldn't you have worked harder? Did you feel that the lyric on which you cleverly likened yourself to a wet mutt — "Don't leave me out here in the cold, oooh turn the porch light on/At least open the doggy door, throw a friend a juicy bone" — bought you several other lazier ones?
How many people suggested that you listen to "Here, My Dear" before recording this album? Do you need to believe that this is your greatest work? Why didn't anyone tell you to leave that swing-band aberration "Time of My Life" off this record? Looking back, don't you think it would have been better to sound more desperate, more scarred? Did your fundamental eagerness to please as a performer undermine your (admittedly brave) urge to bare your all, ugly though it might be?
Have you considered, instead of touring this album, only performing it outside windows in acts of hostile serenade?
How do you think Paula feels, hearing you air your marital ruptures for the world to hear? Did you ask her permission? How will you feel if she takes to the interview circuit to refute you, lyric by lyric? What if you're giving her just the extra push never to look back?
You understand the irony of singing, on "The Opposite of Me," "All that she wants is the action, not the words," right?

Jamie Coyle praised Dartford's work ethic after they ended a run of three straight defeats on Monday.
Darts moved to within a point of the National League South play-off places with a 2-0 home win over East Thurrock.
Ben Greenhalgh headed in the second after skipper Tom Bonner's opener was Dartford's first goal in 411 minutes of football.
"It's been a tough couple of weeks," said Dartford joint-manager Coyle. "We've worked hard on the training pitch to get things right and I thought especially in the first half we were brilliant.
"It looked like there was only going to be one team in it. We had a goal chalked off because the linesman thought it was someone else who scored. They apologised after the game and fortunately for us it didn't have an impact on the result."
Darts had greater balance with Lee Noble and Elliot Bradbrook back together at the heart of their midfield.
They also opted for a two-man frontline as Jamie Philpot was supported by Kudus Oyenuga.
"The last two games we'd had two shots on target and that was a concern," said Coyle.
"To be fair to the boys they've stuck to the game plan. Ben Greenhalgh put some brilliant balls in, like he has done all season, in the first half and we looked like we were going to get on the end of it from open play.
"We've got a clean sheet and it's brilliant for the back five. The work-rate we got from Jamie and Kudos in the first half gravitates throughout the whole side and it gave us an impetus to get higher up the pitch and support that press.
"I'm really pleased for the boys. You could see in the second half when it was only 1-0 that there were a few nerves out there because of the recent run we've been on. It's understandable but they've dug in and deserved the win."
Read the match report from Dartford's 2-0 win over East Thurrock here
Coyle was full of praise for the returning Noble and has urged some of the new faces in Dartford's squad to look and learn from the experienced midfielder.
"He's always on the front foot and in the face of the opposition. It allows everyone in midfield and the back four to get higher up the pitch and press with him," added Coyle.
"He's a catalyst of so much what the club has done in the past and what we're going to do this year. You can really see when he doesn't play that we miss him.
"If he isn't playing for whatever reason, other players have got to take their chance, look at the influence he has when we're in and out of possession and take a leaf out of his book. If they do that, they'll be in a great position."

Background: Vitamin D deficiency is prevalent worldwide. Low 25 hydroxyvitamin D3 concentration inversely associate with type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and probably cardiovascular disease. The objective was the evaluation of association between vitamin D deficiency and cardiovascular risk factors among some diabetic patients.
Methods and materials: One hundred and nineteen type 2 diabetic patients in IRAN from December to March 2008 were used. Coronary, cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular diseases were confirmed by medical history review, examination and paraclinical tests. Blood biochemical parameters including laboratory risk markers of cardiovascular disease were determined by standard laboratory procedures. Serum 25 (OH) D was measured during winter. The correlation between vitamin D deficiency and cardiovascular prevalent and also laboratory variables was determined.
Results: Mean patients age was 55.3±11.2 year. The mean 25 (OH) D concentration was 32.4±21.6 ng/ml. Prevalence of hypovitaminous D was 26.1% among the diabetic patients. The difference with control group was not significant (P=0.12). In overall, 36 (30.3%) patients were positive for coronary vascular disease (CVD). The correlation between hypovitaminous D and CVD was not significant (P=0.11). Vitamin D deficiency had a significant relationship with body mass index (P=0.003), metabolic syndrome(P=0.05), high sensitive CRP (P=0.009), microalbuminuria (P=0.04), and glumerolar filtration rate (P=0.02). FBS, HbA1C, lipid profiles, homocysteine, uric acid and insulin resistance was not related to vitamin D deficiency.
Conclusion: The results showed a correlation between hypovitaminous D and inflammatory markers that could be contributed in cardiovascular disease so vitamin D may be important in cardiovascular health.

Another year gone and here we come with a bright & wonderful fresh start! :) I had a great holiday back home (PERU) and I couldn't be more grateful for it! Amazing way to finish this awesome year. For those who don't know me as well, I am a list person. I do lists for everything, specially at the end of each year. This past few days I went through my Instagram and looked back at all the things that were relevant to me this past year. It feels great to glance back. Make sure every time you do, you pad yourself on the back and feel proud of your accomplishments; do not focus on all the thing that you didn't achieved. (and if you do, use them as constructive criticism). I always like comparing my resolutions and my end of the year reflections; it helps me see the balance of my year in a more objective way. I think writing them down in a list form is also nice, because then you appreciate more all the work you did! This is mine!
Analyzing helps you cleanse and allows you to have an even fresher start, but before you do that...CELEBRATE! Give yourself some rest...before you start thinking about next year. Time really depends on you.. it could be five days, ten, fifteen, I wouldn't let January pass for sure :) Pick a Sunday and set your goals. I prefer starting mine on Mondays, it has always made sense to me, but you don't have to. Write them down, and make plans to execute them. For example..if you are planning to loose weight, pick the days you will exercise, or download diets. Do something! Do not expect those goals to come by itself.
Hope this post can motivate you to get a fresh start! Do not let another year go by without analyzing it, if you do, years will go by without you noticing them! HAPPY CLEANSE! :)

Festival of Lights: All the Details!
Festival of Lights is Friday, December 21 in the Gym!

We recommend dropping your child off at carpool in the morning, and when you're ready to return to campus, parking at Clermont Park and catching the shuttle. Children are welcome to ride the shuttle back with adults when you're ready to leave. Please avail yourselves of this service to ease traffic on campus and prevent parking tickets in the neighborhood!

Yonaka ("Midnight") is a novice- to intermediate-level form. While Yonaka may not have everything you want, it has everything you need. Yonaka is an excellent segue from simple evade-block-counter drills into more complex situations like grabs, and skilled opponents who block your counterattack.
Yonaka is universally appreciated; we've never had a student who did not enjoy this form.
[video of yonaka, performed fast and slow, viewed from cameras at #1, 3, 7, 5. Be sure that you take up the whole frame. A lot of our old kata videos are from too far away, and it hides some detail. ]
- Quickly look to #2. Take a small step to #6 with your right leg and draw your left leg into a right cat stance facing #2, with a left naifu-kinniku.
- Quickly look to #8. Take a small step with your left leg to #4, and draw your right leg into a left cat stance facing #8 with right naifu-kinniku.
- Quickly look to #2. Invert your cat stance and step your left foot to #3, entering a left front stance facing #2 with a left cross-body block.
- Reverse punch, front-foot punch, right front kick, and reverse punch.
- Quickly look to #8. Draw your right foot into a left cat stance facing #2, then immediately step your right foot to #7, entering a right front stance facing #8 with a right cross-body block.
- Reverse punch, front-foot punch, left front kick, and reverse punch.
- Quickly look to #3. Pull your left leg into a right cat stance facing #1, with your fists on your right hip (left atop right).
- Step your left foot to #4, entering left front stance facing #3 with a mountain punch (left arm high).
- Quickly look to #1. Draw your right foot into a left front stance with a kakiwake uke (with shutō hands).
- Execute a right nami-ashi. Transition into a left an |extended cat stance, then push slide into a right front stance facing #1; raise your hands to head-level in an arc, leading into double four-fingered spearhand strikes (palms facing up) to the opponent's solar plexus at #1.
- Execute a right nami-ashi. Transition into a left an |extended cat stance, then push slide into a right front stance facing #1; raise your hands to head-level in an arc, leading into a double tate tsuki to the opponent's solar plexus at #1.
- Quickly look over your right shoulder to #5. Pull your right foot back into a left cat stance with fists on your right hip (left atop right).
- Step your right foot to #2, twisting into a right back stance facing #5 with a left downward-fist block. Pursuit punch.
- Step your right foot to #8, entering left hook stance facing #5 with right cross-body block. Right front kick.
- Upon re-chambering slide your right foot out to #4, slapping opponent's arm down with your right hand. Reach over and grab the opponent's wrist with a left grasping block. Immediately pull your left foot up to a right hook stance facing #7, pulling the opponent into a right uraken uchi to #5.
This is a "slap-grab-uraken."
- |Invert your hook stance and nami-ashi bringing your right palm to your left ear, and guarding your floating ribs with your left hand. Step into a horse stancefacing #7, grabbing your opponent's shirt with your left hand and pulling them into a right downward hammerfist strike to their groin at #5.
- Immediately follow-up with a right makkikomi-shutō to the opponent's neck at #5.
- Quickly look to #1. Twist into a right cat stance, facing #1 with a left outside shutō block.
- Step your left foot forward and immediately pull your right foot up into a left hook stance facing #1, with a right inside hammerfist strike. Catch your right wrist with your left hand.
- Release your grip and reach over your right hand, grabbing the ball of your right wrist. Draw your right hand back to your right hip. Slide your right foot back to #5, and kneel while throwing a right hook punch.
- Attention stance, Goshin-Jutsu bow.
Movements 1 and 2 are naifu-kinniku, not shutō blocks. Naifu-kinniku is a round technique; shutō-uke is a linear technique.
In Movement 5, you do not pull your hands to your hips when you pull into cat stance. The next attack comes too fast for any pause or hesitation,
Pay attention to the slap-grab-uraken combination from Movement 15, as it will occur again in later kata, and it is an excellent way to close the distance in sparring. This is combination, and its variants, are common to many martial arts. (For example, aikidōka use the slap-grab combination to setup kokyūhō.)
The directions for Movement 17 do not explicitly state to grab the opponent's shirt with your left hand to pull them into the makkikomi-shutō, because it's an implied part of every makkikomi-shutō.
Movements 1 and 2 demonstrate how naifu-kinniku can be used as a wrist release.
Movements 4-6 are mirror images of each other. These are a basic evade-block-counter combination against a punch. There is no hesitation or pause between these two attacks.
Movements 7-8 are a defense against a right haymaker. This demonstrates the elegant and definitive nature of the mountain punch.
Movements 9-11 are a defense against a front choke or double lapel grab. The kakiwake uke breaks the attacker's hold. Executing the nami-ashi will trick the attacker into thinking you offer no resistance, since you are not pushing back. As the opponent pushes forward, you assume a solid stance. The opponent will impale themselves on your oncoming strikes, giving them additional power.
Movements 13-16 describe a mini-battle with a more resilient opponent:
- The opponent initially attacks with a right punch or kick your abdomen.
- You deflect this attack with a downward-fist block, and counter with a pursuit punch. The opponent slithers back, as in Futastu-Mae, into a left back stance with a left cross-body block.
- The opponent counterattacks with a right pursuit punch.
- You evade by stepping off of the line-of attack, with a cross-body block for insurance.
- The opponent slithers back, as in Futastu-Mae, into a left back stance with a left downward-fist block.
- You immediately attack again with a backfist strike, which the opponent attempts to quickly defend with a left cross-body block. Seeing that the technique will fail, you drive it down, deflecting the opponent's arm with a slap-grab-uraken.
- The follow-up strike to the groin causes the opponent to lurch forward, adding additional momentum to your maikkikomi-shutō for the coup-de-grâce.
Movements 17-19 describe recovering from attack that has gone wrong. When the opponent at #1 tries to sneak up on you, you attempt to smash their jaw or temple with an inside hammerfist strike. The opponent, who has recovered from the beating they took earlier in the kata, is tired of your tricks, they reach across and grab your hammerfist out of the air (this is the setup for gokyō, an ikkyō variant for defenses against attacks to the side of the head). Quickly, you reach over your hand, peel their hand off, setting up a wristlock. Kneel and throw a hook punch. The downward motion and reciprocal action will complete the takedown. If the opponent resists, they will be pulled off balance, leaving themselves open for the punch to strike their kidney.
Be mindful that this is a bunkai, not the bunkai. Other interpretations exist, and we encourage you to find some of your own; this will force you to understand how techniques work, and what their limits are.
