Mumbai Diary page: Tuesday Tales
The city — sliced, diced and served with a dash of sauce
Breast Cancer awareness via video
The month of October has been dedicated to Breast Cancer awareness. Taking this initiative forward, digital media company Culture Machine has released a series of awareness videos on each Sunday of the month.
The video campaign was launched on the Being Indian channel and aimed at reaching out to a larger audience in a creative and abstract manner. The central message of the video is awareness of the need for every woman to get herself checked.
The first video which was released on October 5 shows a man running to convey the message that women should get regular mammograms to check for lumps. The second which was released on October 12 is a silent video with many bras hanging representing the comparison between rural and urban women likely to be affected by breast cancer.
The third video released on October 19 shows the numbers of women across the world getting affected by the disease, and the final one, a music video, was released on October 26. You can see them on: www.youtube.com/user/BeingIndianchannel
Not towing the line!
There's no doubting the fact that the owner of this towing van is a Shah Rukh Khan fan what with the superstar's hit flick Chennai Express written across the vehicle's back.
Where's the number? Pic/Ashwin Ferro
But while that is a no-no going by our traffic rules, the van has flouted an even bigger road safety norm by not having a number plate as it zipped out of the traffic chowky opposite Sion hospital yesterday. The vehicle's number is haphazardly scribbled across the rear of the van and is not even readable.
A Road Transport Official was sitting right beside the driver of the vehicle as off they went about their job nabbing traffic violators in and around the Sion-Matunga stretch ironically in a vehicle that violates traffic rules itself!
A seat for the man in khaki
Having security personnel in the ladies' first-class train compartment is reassuring, but we guess the policemen have a hard time of it too, standing hour after hour.
The other day we got into a first-class compartment and saw a policeman occupying a seat, with his bag and rifle occupying another seat next to him. This, while some women had to stand. When one woman asked him to get up, he said he was terribly tired and needed to rest his aching legs.
"We are also human, madam, please understand," he said. The woman was nice enough not to oust him, but when the train reached a major station and it became very crowded, the cop did get up, and took up position near the door.
There's a clown in town
So, who are Dee Dee, Skiddles, Lo Lo, Toto, Puff and Flubber? These strange but comic names are particularly apt. They are names of clowns who are going to be in Mumbai for the International Clown Festival, India, happening at the High Street Phoenix (Lower Parel) on November 1 from 3.30pm to 7.30pm.
Dee Dee (left) and Skiddles are coming to Mumbai. Clowns bring you the brighter moments in life
The last time these clowns were in Mumbai, they delighted audiences with a slew of performances, including a heart warming visiting to the KEM Hospital ward for haemophilia patients, where they brightened up the day for haemophilic children.
In a world with a surfeit of violence, doom and gloom, clowns are like a burst of sunshine on a drab day. Waiting for you, Dee Dee, Skiddles and Lo Lo.
What's in a name?
Oneof our colleagues was happy at receiving a small Diwali gift from a cousin, who told her cryptically, "This is something you will like."
The gift turned out to be a set of coasters depicting images of old Mumbai (Bombay, as it was then). Since our colleague is a fan of all things old and nostalgic, she was happy... until she read the lettering on the coasters.
The city's landmarks had been identified as "Floral Fountain" and "Crawfort Market", to name but two. Shuddering at what she termed "blasphemy", our colleague is now wondering what to do with the gift. Re-gift it to a proofreader?

Slater gives rivals glowing endorsement
Kelly Slater says the world surfing tour has reached its golden age.
The 11-time world champion stamped his authority on the opening event of the year at Snapper Rocks on Saturday, posting a near-perfect wave score of 9.87 midway through the heat to put young gun Kolohe Andino from California and Australian Garrett Parkes out of contention.
"All the best young guys (with the exception of Dane Reynolds) are now on the tour and they all want to beat each other," Slater said after posting a two-wave total of 18.8 points out of 20.
"I think we have the best batch we're going to get for a few years and we say that every year but I think it is true this year.
"These guys have all been talked about for a lot of years coming up and they're finally here and coming into their own."
One of those youngsters, 19-year-old John John Florence of Hawaii, turned in the highest heat score of the day, an amazing 19.6, and the best individual wave score of 9.9.
Local favourite Mick Fanning pulled off a win in deteriorating conditions to go straight into round three but fellow Gold Coaster Joel Parkinson goes into Sunday's sudden-death second round after just failing to grab the lead in his heat.
With seconds remaining he dropped into a deep barrel but the wave did not offer any real scoring opportunities and he was beaten by Adam Melling from Lennox Head 15.7 points to 15.3.
The only other Australians to make it straight into round three were Owen Wright and Adrian Buchan from New South Wales.

PM urged to allow EU No campaign
David Cameron is coming under renewed pressure to allow ministers to campaign for Britain to leave the European Union in his promised in/out referendum on the UK's continued membership.
Senior Conservative figures on both sides of the debate warned that Mr Cameron will struggle to hold his Government together unless he allows minsters the freedom to act with their consciences.
The Prime Minister has insisted that ministers would be expected to campaign for a "yes" vote if he recommends the country accepts the outcome of his re-negotiation of UK membership terms which he is now embarking upon.
David Cameron has insisted ministers would be expected to campaign for a 'yes' vote
However, former cabinet minister and arch Eurosceptic John Redwood said that when the referendum comes, ministers would act in the way that they saw fit - even if it meant losing their jobs.
"Of course they should be free to campaign as they see fit and they will be free to campaign as they see fit. The only issue is whether they are asked to leave their government positions before they do it or not," he told Sky News's Murnaghan programme.
"This is so fundamental. What is the point of being a minister if you are charged, for example, with getting immigration down but the European Union won't let you do it.
"If you are faced with that situation the only honest thing to do is to campaign for a change in the arrangement or to campaign for out."
His comments were echoed by the veteran pro-European Ken Clarke who said that Eurosceptic ministers like Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith could not be expected to support a "yes" vote.
"There will be Conservatives campaigning on both sides," he told the BBC1 Sunday Politics programme.
"It is up to David how he wants to run his Cabinet. I would advise him to let Cabinet ministers campaign on both sides because Iain Duncan Smith and I are not going to be on the same side.
"Iain Duncan Smith and I have both actually been committed to party unity overall. We differ on Europe. The referendum is meant to be a way of letting us resolve that in a civilised way.
"I would let the Eurosceptics have a kind of free exercise in campaigning in the referendum."
Mr Clarke, however, dismissed demands by Tory Eurosceptics like former defence secretary Liam Fox for Mr Cameron to seek the repatriation of powers from Brussels as part of his re-negotiation, insisting it was not on the table.
"He is not asking to repatriate any powers," he said. "Most of the people demanding the repatriation of powers can't think of any or want to repatriate powers that would lead, for example, to an inability to tackle international crime."
Meanwhile Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon expressed concern that Mr Cameron was taking the UK "perilously close to the exit door" from Europe.
She confirmed that SNP MPs at Westminster would seek to amend the Government's EU Referendum Bill so that Britain could only leave if there were separate majorities in favour of the move in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.
"I think what is dangerous about the approach David Cameron is taking right now is that he is taking the UK perilously close to the exit door and I think that's wrong," she told the Murnaghan programme.
On the Eurosceptic side, Ukip MP Douglas Carswell called on the inventor and entrepreneur Sir James Dyson to head up the "no" campaign.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live's Pienaar's Politics that it was essential that the case for leaving the EU was made "in a really positive way".
"We mustn't ever make arguments that are angry or nativist or unpleasant or divisive," he said.
"We've got to make people realise that the reason why we're Eurosceptics is because we think that this country could be so much better and being better means being more internationalist, more open to the world."

The Bite Em Water Mole Lure was first introduced in 1920. The Bite Em Bait Company out of Fort Wayne, Indiana has two versions. The one shown below in the gallery is a type II with a slanted face where as the type I is rounded. This no eyed wooden antique fishing lure measures three inches in length. The lure features a single forward line tie just below where the slant reaches its apex. The lures bowling pin type shape holds the lure's two treble hooks. The forward hook employs the use of a screw hook similar to the Heddon L Rig minus the cup to hold its treble, and the rear is secured with a screw eye.
Covering the bottom section of the rear half of the lure is a fixed oblong shaped flasher. The Water Mole lure was housed inside a picture box which used a photo of the lure in its design. The box exclaims "The Nickle Plated Spoon on the Tail makes the Bait Active and Very Attractive. Skitters, Wiggles, and Wobbles on the Surface." They use the ability to change the front hook out with a double hook to be able to help with its weedless properties.
The Bite Em Water Mole lure can be found in a assorted selection of colors. They used a more plain or primary color palate for its color options. The Water Mole was offered in a smaller Trout size version as well.

Debenhams, the country's second largest department store group, today announced plans to close one of its central distribution centres as well as 10 regional warehouses, in addition to potentially closing 10 stores in the next five years. The news come alongside half-year results showing the company has seen a 11.3 per cent fall in operating profits with like-for-like store sales dropping 1.3 per cent.
Debenhams' new chief executive Sergio Bucher, who joined the company from Amazon last October, said: "Our customers are changing the way they shop and we are changing too. Shopping with Debenhams should be effortless, reliable and fun, whichever channel our customers use. We will be a destination for "social shopping" with mobile the unifying platform for interacting with our customers."
The new strategy will see the group axe some of its in-house brands, leave some international markets and shift around 2,000 staff to customer-facing roles with the goal of luring shoppers back to its stores. Bucher also says he wants to de-clutter stores as part of the new 'Fix the Basics' plan, following feedback from customers who said shopping in some Debenhams branches was like a "treasure hunt".
"If we deliver differentiated and distinctive brands, services and experiences both online and in stores, our customers will visit us more frequently and, having simplified our operations to make us more efficient, we will be able to serve them better and make better use of our resources," he added.

Fat Quarter Shop's Top Ten Roundup : AGF Stitched Fractal Pattern
By Melissa LeRay
Today's my stop on the Fat Quarter Shop's top 10 of 2015 blog hop! Today I'm sharing with you the mini quilt I created using AGF Stitched's Fractal pattern.
For my mini, I used my favorite new release – Paperie by Amy Sinibaldi for Art Gallery Fabrics. I love love love this new collection, and its focus on the essence and appearance of old books and soft colors.
I chose this pattern for two reasons – I love the look of it. Fractals, tessellations, etc are pretty big right now, and there's no denying why. They provide so much eye candy, and I love that they're not just your standard square quilt block. Second, I wanted to conquer my fears of working with Y seams. And this did it. But not because they're hard – Y seams were nothing to fear, and I'm not even sure why they have such a bad rap. One thing to note is that each and every edge is cut on the bias, so you absolutely want to starch your fabric before cutting. I prefer to use Soak : Flatter. The pattern is free from Fat Quarter Shop, and is available here.
The key to making this as surprisingly easy as it is, is using the Creative Grids ruler specifically designed for it, CGRKC1. It also includes little holes where you are able to mark your stitch start and end points, so sewing these blocks together is truly a breeze. Kimberly shows you exactly how to tackle this in the FQS Youtube Video : AGF Stitched Fractal, and I found this video invaluable.
For the quilting I just did double straight lines across and I really like how it complements the angles in the pattern. Hopefully you'll give this great pattern a try too!
Now that I have yardage of Paperie, and have overcome my fear of the Y seam, I plan to make a throw quilt for our couch as well!

Onboard music storage.....when?
Onboard music storage.....when?
no news.... :-(
Would much prefer the Tesla to support iTunes match. With 3G (and later 4G LTE) I'd have access to my massive ever changing iTunes library with just a one-time sign in. Perfect.
I paid for Sound Package which includes 12 speakers and storage for 3000 songs. So far, I have counted only 7 speakers and don't see anything on the setup screen that allows me to store music on board. I am due for service next week and I will discuss the issues with service center.
@bondoc1: Speaker locations - http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/9081-Model-S-FAQs/page7?p=... (bottom of page 7)
Also, Elon recently tweeted, "Over the air upgrade coming in a few months to allow tethering (and other things)" (11 May 2013)
I would suspect the music storage being one of the other things, as it only seems logical to be able to "push" music to your car via wifi as it sits in your garage. Drag and drop.

, Research Paper
TQM Relating to Saturn of Japan Culture can affect how the impact and meaning of leadership first because people are accustomed to one particular style of leadership and when you change that style it will affect the way the employee works. Second, cultural differences between countries such as shared experiences and history affect the definition of leadership. An example would be, in Germany the engineer is held in high esteem, while the manager is just someone who is just there to tell them what to do. Origins of leadership can affect how the employee works also. Such as leaders in different countries come in to power in different ways some countries the upper class are the leaders like in Turkey and in many Arab countries. In other former socialist countries the lower class end up as the managers. Culture can affect the values of a country in many ways. One of the ways would be if the country is modern or traditional. If the country is traditional culture would dictate respect for the past, family, and class. A sense of duty to family and friends along with little sense of time urgency makes up a traditionalistic culture. As a result this kind of culture may respond favorably to autocratic leadership. The opposite is true in modern cultures the values lie in more of a "take care of myself" kind of attitude. The book shows that many of the same attributes were shared by the same countries and ranked in the top five leadership characteristics on page 142. This shows that universally many of the attributes such as " can articulate a tangible vision" are high on the list of ideal characteristics. Power and influence tactics vary in many ways culture to culture. The first reason that tactics may vary is simple, it is because different cultures define what the tactics mean much differently than we would and therefore rank them differently. For example in Japan friendliness did not even make the list, when in Australia it is ranked first. This is not to say the Japanese are not friendly, but that they do not associate it with business the way the Australians do. Another difference is the way the Asian cultures use "assertive reasoning" more so than the English speaking countries, this is because in Asian cultures it is important show concern for subordinates, while reminding them of the leader's authority. When Saturn went to Japan they had to set up TQM system for an American company. To set up the system they had to integrate Demming's 14 point system. The first step in doing this was to have a constant purpose toward improvement. Saturn's company philosophy and Japan's culture are perfect for this step because they are both very focused on making the perfect product. The next step would be to adopt the new philosophy. Depending on what culture Saturn's Japan factory hires this could be very tricky if they hire a Japanese boss this will be no problem, but if they hire an American boss he or she may have a hard time adjusting to an eastern management style.
The third step would be to stop mass inspection and to personally look at every car. Again for Saturn and for Japanese workers, this would not be a big deal because this is already done at Saturn plants and in most Japanese plants of any type.Fourth Saturn in Japan and the world over should stop buying parts and services based only on prices, but to buy the best available. This may upset some suppliers but if they want Saturn's business they will improve the quality of their products.Fifth by constantly improving the system of production and service Saturn will increase productivity and lower costs. This may upset some people because they will have to learn new equipment and ways of doing things periodicallySixth train every one this is a very expensive process and the upper management may express some doubts but in the long run it is a more cost effective way to do things because there are no gaps in the line if every one knows how to do every thing else , saving the company money.Seventh by the management coming out of the up stairs office and helping and advising the employees you create an atmosphere of team spirit and not us against them. Eighth goes right along with seven, employees will not be afraid to ask questions or to point out problems and therefore will be able to relax and do their jobs effectivelyNinth break down the barriers between departments. If the whole plant feels as one big team there will be rivalry. The plant should be in competition with others plants not within it self.Tenth eliminate slogans and the like. Who wants to be bothered by the cheesy slogans when the real problems can be fixed by focusing on the problem and correcting it.Eleventh get rid of quotas focus on the quality of the product instead of how many you can make in one hour. This may affect the employees that are paid piecework. They should be put on salary to eliminate the quota issue.Twelfth watch that the management does not judge or grade the employees this will prevent them from reaching their potential. In Japan this may not be an issue because they appreciate the chance to show their employers how adept at their jobs they are with out having to make it look like showing off or bragging.Thirteenth by starting a program of self-improvement and education you will motivate your employees to do better and they also may learn a technique that will improve the plant as a whole.Fourteenth do not just put some people on the TQM transformation you must put every one together as a team.In Japan the culture is very group oriented and selfless so the previous fourteen points were relatively easy to implement. There was little resistance to the changes when Saturn arrived in Japan, because the culture is geared to a TQM style work place. If Saturn had chose to put a plant in Mexico for instance many of the points I mentioned would be harder to implement because Mexicans do not work as hard for American companies as they would for a Mexican owned plant.

Quick Deal Alert: a 3.5-Star Hotel for $27 and Several Other Hotel Promotions
After yesterday's $50 Expedia hotel offer, which I considered very good, there is an even better one to share today!
Actually there are several promotions, but let me start with what I think is the best one.
Travelocity $40 off a mobile hotel booking of $100+ (link)
Pretty straightforward – book a hotel of $100 or more via the mobile app using promo code MOBILE40 and get $40 off. The catch is that this offer is only good until 11:59pm Pacific Time today (June 29), although you can travel through December 31, 2014.
It works on bookings of multiple nights. I played around and was able to find a 3.5-star hotel for $36/night before the coupon code. Booking it for 3 nights would get you to the $100 requirement, then applying the coupon would take the total cost down to $82 for three nights (taxes and fees included).
Tough to beat $27/night for a 3.5-star hotel!
There is a list of non-eligible hotels but it's not terribly long and I didn't have a hard time finding good eligible options.
The terms state "limit one (1) coupon per qualifying hotel booking," which suggests to me that the deal can be used multiple times as long as you make separate bookings each time. [Update: Despite the language, I was unable to make a second booking using the same code on the same Travelocity account. The code would not "take" despite several tries with different hotels not on the excluded list. Your experience may vary.]
Travelocity $50 off a hotel booking of $300+ (link)
Use code SUMMER50 for this offer. Must book by August 31 and travel by December 31, 2014.
Hotels.com $50 off $300+ (link)
Use code FIREWORKS for this offer. Must book by July 4 and travel by December 31, 2014.
Expedia $50 off $200+
And of course don't forget about the $50 off $200+ offer from Expedia described in yesterday's post.
As always, be sure to note all terms of each offer you participate in.
Enjoy the remaining weekend and don't forget to check our regularly-updated Travel Deals Page for more promotions.

Today we are sharing Jerry's story with you. If you have experienced change in your life then you are not alone. Jerry's life has changed almost unrecognisably in the last nine years … over to Jerry to fill you in on the details;
Complacency is a state of being often as dangerous as angst. In angst we are aware of potential dangers. In complacency we become smug. We see ourselves being self fulfilled and unconcerned or unaware of possible dangers. That was the state of mind I was in until early fall 2001.
October 2001 found me standing graveside as I watched my father's casket being lowered into the ground. In April of 2002 I became another workplace statistic; i.e. middle-upper-class white collar male who's services will no longer be needed and replaced by the person who I mentored. Finally in June of 2002, the judge granted a divorce after almost 27 years. The irony was I was still being complacent!
I was sure I would find another job with little effort. I never realized we were at the beginning of what is still being called the longest and deepest recession since the Great depression. I was cavalier in my thinking. I remained close to my children, but friends and relatives were split in their loyalties to me or my ex. I was complacent. I never saw it coming. In retrospect, perhaps a dose of angst may have caused me to take preventative measures…then again, perhaps not.
The next four or five years became a blur. Hundreds of resumes sent out resulting in a handful of interviews. The answer always the same, "Thanks but no thanks." I travelled a bit; visiting one daughter in Australia, a golf holiday with my son and a trip to Ireland with my other daughter. As if life had handed me an alternate route and I was searching for new roads new answers none of which came. Then accidently I read an article about life coaching. After research on schools and qualifications required I knew I had found my new route. Now all I had to do was begin the journey.
People always sought my counsel, perhaps because I could easily discern what was at issue and find simple solutions for those willing to change? Recently I was honoured by Native Ojibwa's with a name that means, "He who sees clearly." Not a more appropriate name could have been bestowed on any man. My ability to "see clearly" has allowed me to quickly work through excuses that frequently blind an individual to change. Armed with my coaches training I began a new journey finding and helping those individuals willing to make changes. It was here my lessons in life were once again most apparent.
So now I am faced with a number of dilemmas. I know I am very good at what I do, but how do I overcome this intense aversion to egotistical self promotion? How can I begin to cultivate a following or people who are willing to remain open to change? And even more importantly, how do I parley what I have learned, what I know, what I am capable of doing into a reasonable amount of income?
I love to attend cocktail parties and ask people. "Who are you?" For every question the response is always the same…"I'm a doctor…teacher…nurse…mechanic…" Why do we define ourselves by what we do? Even Alcoholics Anonymous insists a person introduce themselves as an alcoholic…Is that REALLY who they are? We are a sum total of a life's experience, not one frame of a movie, rather we are a series of frames that culminates in an end.
At this point in my life I have a few wishes. I wish my children see me as a man who did his best to be an example and a father. I wish to be in a relationship that shares intimacies beyond the physical…and I intend to face my "Creator" and say…."Yep! I used all the talents you gave me!"
Jerry has extensive experience as a coach. Questions can be directed to firstname.lastname@example.com

Vegetarian Taco Salad
As anyone who has had a real taco salad knows, this is no salad for the faint of heart. This is a serious salad, that, in its traditional form, is loaded with taco-style ground beef and shredded cheese. This, of course, presents a dilemma for those who don't combine the two. Subbing beans for the beef is always an option, but if you want to stay close to the original taste and texture, try Morningstar Farms Veggie Crumbles instead of beef.
© Courtney Weiner. All Rights Reserved.
Total time: 10 min.
Yield: 6-8 servings
Level: Easy
- 1 ½ tbsp chili powder
- 3/8 tsp garlic powder
- 3/8 tsp onion powder
- 1/8-1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 3/8 tsp dried oregano
- 5/8 tsp paprika
- 2 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 1 ½ tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 package Morningstar Farms Veggie Crumbles
- 2 heads romaine lettuce, chopped or torn
- 2 tomatoes, diced
- 1 small can corn
- ½ lb shredded cheddar and/or Monterrey jack cheese
- 1 red onion, dice
- Tortilla chips
- Salsa
- Guacamole
Add all ingredients through Veggie Crumbles to large skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring to incorporate all of the spices, until the Crumbles are hot and the water has mostly evaporated. If the water evaporates too quickly, add more.
Add the remaining ingredients through the red onion to a salad bowl. Pour the taco "meat" on top. Top with crumbled tortilla chips, guacamole, and your favorite salsa, and toss well.

Less than 24 hours after Governor Mary Fallin signed legislation ending the zero-emissions tax credit for the wind industry three years early, a power company with more than 100 renewable energy power plants across 23 states announced Tuesday it has begun construction on a new 61,000-acre wind farm project in central Oklahoma valued at more than $420 million.
"The development of the Red Dirt wind farm has been a multiyear process and Enel Green Power North America put in place and secured agreements with certain assumptions," said Enel, in a statement. "Additionally, the company has already invested a great deal of resources and planning in the development of this wind facility. While we considered not going forward with the Red Dirt project, we are a company that honors its business and financial commitments, and therefore we are proceeding with construction."
Marking its ninth project in Oklahoma, Enel Green Power North America Inc. is building the wind farm in Kingfisher and Logan counties, according to The Oklahoman. The company will operate the new facility as Red Dirt Wind Project, LLC, an EGPNA subsidiary.
The Red Dirt project is Enel's largest venture to date in Oklahoma. The company will employ 600 during construction and hire an additional 12 fulltime workers when fully operational.
The wind farm is expected to be operational by the end of the year. It will have 95 turbines and sell electricity to the Grand River Dam Authority and T-Mobile under long-term contracts, according to The Oklahoman.
"We are proud to continue our investment in Oklahoma and its communities and to do so with T-Mobile, a new corporate partner who shares our commitment to sustainability and community," said Rafael Gonzalez, head of Enel Green Power North America. "Red Dirt has been under development for several years and promises to be a project that will deliver millions in new revenue to support local services, education and drive economic stimulus in the region."
Since entering the Oklahoma wind market in 2012, EGPNA has experienced a meteoric rise in capacity from 150 megawatts to nearly 1,500 megawatts.
EGPNA's other eight projects in Oklahoma include:
- Rocky Ridge in Kiowa and Washita Counties
- Chisholm View I in Grant and Garfield Counties
- Chisholm View II in Grant and Garfield Counties
- Origin in Murray, Carter and Garvin Counties
- Osage Wind in Osage County
- Goodwell in Texas County
- Little Elk in Kiowa and Washita Counties
- Drift Sand in Grady County

Native Children's Survival continues to cultivate awareness and support for critical issues facing Indigenous Peoples, Children and the Environment by reaching millions of viewers around the world through television broadcasts on major networks, from MTV America to SABC Africa. The following is a brief history.
Our first music picture campaign, Is It Too Late, was broadcast around the world from the Kremlin, on ORT Channel One Russia, following President Mikhail Gorbachev's historic environmental message at the Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders in Moscow and screened at United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Children and the Environment Project, United Nations General Assembly, United Nations Headquarters, New York. This endeavor earned NCS Founder/President Robby Romero the title of United Nations Ambassador of Youth for the Environment and a certificate of appreciation from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) signed by Executive Director, Mostafa K. Tolba.
As part of MTV's Free Your Mind campaign, NCS created several stereotype breaking public service announcements. The PSAs were produced to introduce the music television generation to contemporary Native Peoples and to dispel myths and misconceptions about Native Peoples in pop culture. The PSAs generated a huge buzz and the Free Your Mind campaign won the industry's prestigious CableACE Award.
Our VH1 World Alert rockumentary special, Makoce Wakan: Sacred Earth, was produced to help support legislation in the U.S. Congress to protect Native Peoples Sacred Sites and Freedom of Religion. The World Alert Special first screened at a Press Conference in the U.S. Capitol at the Rotunda of the Senate Office Building. The legislation was successful and the film generated the highest viewer response of any show on the network to date at that time, gaining 160,000 new subscribers from the heart of Indian Country for MTV Networks.
Heartbeat, the followup music picture to Is It Too Late, first aired on VH1 and MTV2 with a 'Call To Action To Protect Native Peoples Sacred Sites'. Heartbeat impacted Native and Commercial Radio during NCS Founder/President Robby Romero's groundbreaking and critically acclaimed Indian Country Tour. The music and campaign were featured on VH1′s Inside Music and MTV's Crossroads shows, and on NPR's WXPN World Cafe
Prayer Song, a music picture written and produced in honor of Native American Political Prisoner Leonard Peltier, first aired on VH1 and MTV2. Prayer Song impacted Native and Commercial Radio during the campaign's Turtle Island (aka) North American Radio Cafe Tour. The music and message were featured on several television programs including a special appearance on the PBS hit puppet show "Puzzle Place," an episode that become the most watched and requested episode of the series.
With the success of our campaigns on MTV Networks NCS Founder/President Robby Romero took NCS and our Call To Action To Protect Native Peoples Sacred Sites on the 1995 and 1996 H. O. R. D. E. Festival, a Blues Traveler-founded Tour that came to define a genre of explosive live performances and intense fan loyalty, and on the Blues Traveler Fall tours. The music and campaign were featured on American morning news talk show's across the country and on MTV's H. O. R. D. E. Bootleg Special".
Our experimental indie short film, Hidden Medicine, was produced to support legislation then in U.S. Congress to protect the remaining four percent of America's forests. Featuring a preface by Robert Redford, the short film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, aired on Sundance Channel in the "Best of the Fest" series and screened at United Nations 6th session of the Working Group on the draft United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples in Geneva, Switzerland. With a successful appeal, Hidden Medicine encouraged viewers to take immediate action regarding the Act to Save America's Forests and the National Forest Protection and Restoration Act.
Our rockumentary film, America's Last Frontier, was produced to help stop legislation in the U.S. Congress that would open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas exploration. Supported with MTV News features, America's Last Frontier first aired on SABC Africa's hit program 50/50 during UNCED, the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (aka) the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg, South Africa and at the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNPFII), United Nations Headquarters, New York. The television broadcast campaign was successful, the legislation was stopped and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge was protected.
As part of our r u 2 cool 2 care public service announcement campaign and in support of our rockumentary film, America's Last Frontier, Save The Arctic Refuge premiered on MTV News and on our NCS YouTube Channel with a successful appeal to stop legislation in the U.S. Congress that would open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas exploration.
The r u 2 cool 2 care campaign continued with another Safe The Arctic Refuge public service announcement produced to generate support to Permanently Protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from oil and gas exploration. The campaign continues…
As part of our r u 2 cool 2 care public service announcement campaign, NCS created Native Wind a PSA featuring Chief Arvol Looking Horse celebrating alternative Native energy.
Native Wind had its debut at President Bill Clinton's Global Initiative in New York City, with some of the world's most influential political and business leaders in attendance. Native Wind made its film festival premier at the American Indian Film Festival at the Palace Of Fine Arts in San Francisco, CA and went on to showcase at Festival De Cannes, Short Film Corner, in Cannes, France, the Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival presented by Patagonia, Robert Redford's Sundance Summit, and at the United Nations World Environment Day Global celebration.
Encounters – An Alliance For Children, a Sony/BMG release, featured a duo with NCS Founder/President Robby Romero and German Rock Legend Peter Maffay performing Robby's Indian Country hit single Heartbeat. Heartbeat became the album's single. The single and album's release were followed by a string of TV and Radio appearances including, BRAVO Magazine's 50th Anniversary Celebration of music history and youth culture with a live three-hour international television satellite feed, an AOL International Live broadcast, and a 15-city Arena Tour. The TV lineups included Beyonce, Tokio Hotel, Sting, Keith Urban, and more. The Encounters project was successful in raising over one million Euros to benefit children's programs around the world, including the building of the "Sacred Hoop" Lakota Language Immersion School in Oglala, South Dakota on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. At a press conference in Germany, Robby was presented with a Gold Record from the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI), the Federal Association of Music Industry in Germany.
Following the tour, in a Concert for Peace Robby joined President Mikhail Gorbachev, Yusuf Islam (aka Cat Stevens), Angelique Kiddy, Peter Maffay, President Shimon Peres, NCS Board Member Dakota Romero, Carlos Santana, and Archbishop Desmond Tutu in Bochum, Germany. Proceeds from this concert supported the humanitarian projects of the Milagro Foundation in San Francisco and the Desmond Tutu Peace Center in South Africa.
Who's Gonna Save You presents an Indigenous perspective to a global crisis. This 'music picture' is a combination of music video and motion picture woven into a poetic call to consciousness for the restoration of life in balance.
Who's Gonna Save You first premiered on SABC Africa's hit program YoTV during the 17th Conference of the Parties (COP17) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the 7th Session of the Conference of the Parties (CMP7) to the Kyoto Protocol in Durban, South Africa. Who's Gonna Save You went on to premiere at special events including: The Taos Pueblo Day School, UNM Harwood Museum Of Art, and the United Nations Permanent Forum On Indigenous Issues (UNPFII). Who's Gonna Save You had its North American broadcast premiere on ABC's Heartbeat Alaska and screened at the Suquamish Youth Summit on Mother Earth Day 22 April 2016.
"We're bringing a message to the world for the restoration of life in balance, because music does make a difference."
– Tonya Gonnella Frichner, American Indian Law Alliance, North American Regional Representative to the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues
"Your musical talent and leadership in the Native American community will undoubtedly help commemorate the United Nations adoption of the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples for years to come. It was very thoughtful of you to include me in the celebration of this historic occasion."
– Nancy Pelosi, Minority Leader of the United States House of Representatives and 60th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives
The Project Protect Awareness Campaign continues to build Global momentum and will release the latest music picture in the series titled, Earth Revolution on The United Nations' (UN) International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples 9 August 2016. Earth Revolution calls for implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and the Rights of Mother Earth and all her children.
As part of our r u 2 cool 2 care public service announcement campaign Iron Horse addresses the misconceptions and stereotypes perpetrated in history books and in pop culture about Indigenous Peoples. Written and performed by NCS Founder/President Robby Romero and NCS Board Member and two time Grammy Winner Robert Mirabal, Iron Horse served as a catalyst to the culturally historic name-change of Kit Carson Park to Red Willow Park by the Town of Taos. Iron Horse premiered at the 32nd Annual Gathering of Nations Pow Wow held at the University of New Mexico Arena (The Pit) in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and on the NCS YouTube Channel and PowWows.com. "When the opportunity presented itself, I suggested that the Town of Taos change the name of Kit Carson Park to Red Willow Park to honor the Indigenous Peoples of the Red Willow. I made the suggestion to kindle a conversation about one-sided perspectives that are more often than not 'his-story – not history' and I'm certain the curtain has fallen on the misconceptions, stereotypes and derogatory names exploited in history books and in sports and POP culture about Native Peoples." – Robby Romero
In addition to the positive comments from viewers, numerous cultural, environmental, entertainment and human rights awards, NCS has also received numerous Certificates of Acknowledgment from distinguished organizations. Those organizations include: The National Congress Of American Indians, The United Nations Children and the Environment Programme, The Red Road, The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, The Earth Day Network, SONY/BMG Music Entertainment, The Gwich'in Steering Committee, and The Aveda Corporation.
However, the success of NCS's projects is best stated by the networks that aired our programs and the media. Here are a few clips.
"In the spirit of Woody Guthrie's Tom Joad, Robby Romero is there wherever Native Americans are fighting for the rights. He is an articulate artist and advocate for the causes and concerns behind a cultural resistance that is older than this country."
– Media Channel
"Feedback has been more than positive: Congratulations on a very successful show that has generated more viewer calls than any other show to date"
– MTV Networks
"Hidden Medicine is an experimental, mystical film that deals with the relationship between Indigenous Peoples and the environment. The film beautifully weaves story, poetry, music and politics, creating an impending sense of our planet's struggle to survive."
– Sundance Channel
"We had amazing feedback from our viewers and they enjoyed the educational ride, the critical message so eloquently brought across with the beauty of Alaska and music that could become a hit in South Africa".
– SABC Africa
"It's insightful for South Africans to hear the plight of Indigenous Peoples worldwide, and the United Nations World Summit provided the perfect platform for this screening."
– SABC 2 Africa
"The Alaska premier of 'Who's Gonna Save You,' by Robby Romero, brought a new excitement to the Native community of Alaska. With the radiation of Fukushima arriving on Alaska's coast, the music picture launched a sense of urgency along with the added excitement of having a world class musician/activist in our midst"
– Jeanie Greene (Creator/Producer of ABC's Heartbeat Alaska)
"Robby Romero and his band Red Thunder are changing the world — and the world of music."
– Los Angeles Times Magazine
"A Powerful Plea For Mother Earth… This engaging hybrid music picture delivers an undeniable message…a powerful plea for Mother Earth, a compelling call to action and a heartfelt warning of impending doom if we fail to change our ways. The alter-native music and novel storyline with haunting imagery locks in your attention, empathy and interest."
– Native Peoples Magazine
"Who's Gonna Save You… This change in the weather will burn us, then we'll freeze," sings Robby Romero, "there's a point of no return; we've got to face reality." Those are just some of the striking lyrics from "Who's Gonna Save You… Thoughts from Hopi Elders, recording artists and street artists including the infamously artsy Brit vandal Banksy are also featured in the flick."
– Santa Fe Reporter
"A Voice on Climate Change From an Indigenous Perspective… Climate change is possibly the biggest challenge the world now faces. Romero tackles the tough topic of climate change from an Indigenous perspective."
– Indian Gaming Magazine
"Americans for Alaska urge the Senate to protect the Arctic Refuge. Attending were the Honorable Jimmy Carter, Robby Romero, Theodore Roosevelt IV, Dune Lankard, Robert Kennedy Jr., Sarah James, John Travolta, Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt, Carole King, The Honorable Hubert H. Humphrey III, Michael Douglas, Kevin Spacey, Larry Rockefeller, Ann Bancroft, Rob Reiner, Edward Norton, Don Henley, Billy Crystal, Ted Turner, Mike Medavoy, Lyn & Norman Lear, Ed Bagley Jr., Ed Asner, Mary Tyler Moore."
– The Washington Times
"This film could not be more topical. With the Bush administration trying to push through legislation that would extract oil from the pristine North Slope of Alaska, the Gwch'in, who have lived there for centuries, are fighting to protect their way of life. Interspersed with music and song, the plight of the Gwich'in is chronicled with interviews and stunning visuals."
– Eastern Door
"Cultivating Indigenous world awareness. Native rock artist Robby Romero of "Red Thunder" has long been outspoken and passionate about the environment."
– Awareness Magazine
"Red Thunder spreads a positive spiritual, environmental message around the globe."
– Lakota Times
"Robby Romero and Red Thunder have earned respect around the world on more than one level. Their dynamic music inspires their fans to dance, while their faithful efforts to improve the lives of individuals through-out Indian Country motivate their fans to volunteer, learn and serve others."
– Cherokee One Feather Newspaper

Thanks so much!!! I wasn't worried until I saw that she dropped to the 5th percentile. I also know that she is burning more calories by crawling. You made me feel better.
My fiance isn't a big guy... pretty average and I was a tiny baby and scrawny kid growing up. I started getting to be average size in middle school. So, I guess she is following in my foot steps. i called my mom yesterday to ask her about me as a baby and she described me and it sounded like I was the same as Danika. She said to not worry about numbers.. it's just hard not to worry.
I read to add 1/2 scoup extra of formula to each bottle to add more calories.... I don't know. My dr didn't seem worried at all....
Check out Danika's website!

Themes and Meanings
(Critical Guide to Poetry for Students)
The recurrent topic of Herbert's poems is not perfection but correction. Perfection is unreachable, but constant correction is one of the rules of religious life (and religious poetry) for Herbert. The speaker of "The Collar" is by no means wicked or reprehensible. He is, in fact, all too human, and his protest against the inevitable disappointments, restrictions, and pains of life is one with which most of the readers of this poem can sympathize and identify. Much to his credit, Herbert never denies the validity of the experiences described in "The Collar" or suggests that such feelings, however confused or disordered or angry, are unworthy of expression. Herbert knew that the Bible, especially the book of Psalms, one of his great spiritual and poetic models, dwells repeatedly on laments and complaints as radical as those in "The Collar."
Alongside the Bible, perhaps there is also something of a different kind of social and religious ritualism here—the carnivalesque spirit. Carnival is a festival time of at least temporary release from the obligations and restraints of daily life, and one is not only freed but even encouraged to abuse, parody, or otherwise flout the figures of authority and "cold dispute[s]/ Of what is fit, and not" and grab for the physical pleasures at hand. Carnival functions not only as an individual and societal relief valve, letting off pressure that might otherwise build to intolerable levels, but also an...

Are you sick and tired of having to manually open garage door repair medford oregon? You can actually install a garage door opener that will allow you to open the garage door automatically. These devices actually take a little time to install. They also make opening and closing the door to your garage a lot easier. You want to make sure that you properly prepare to install the opener, however, before you actually begin the process.
When preparing to install an opener for your garage door, the first thing you are going to want to do is to look at the type of door that you have, to begin with. Make sure that you have the right type of door in order to attach an opener. Most of the newer models come with horizontal sections that are actually compatible with openers. However, you may need to replace an older style garage door before you install the opener.
The next thing you want to do is make a decision. You basically have to types of garage door openers. The first one is a chain driven model. The second uses a belt. Both of them work pretty much in the same manner. However, you may want to consider that the belt version is known to be quieter when in use.
The next thing you will do is actually prepare the door itself for the installation to take place. You can do this be ensuring that the door is lubricated well and that it is working correctly. You also want to make sure that you have an electrical plug in the area where the opener will be installed. These are usually found in the ceiling. If your garage does not have one, you will either have to go through the process of installing one yourself or find an electrician to install it for you.
When you actually get ready to install the opener, you want to ensure that you know what you are doing. The first thing you want to do is get all of the parts that came with the device and lay them out. There should be a list included with the device that lists what is included with the package. Make sure that the parts match the ones found on the list.
Next, you are going to piece the main assembly together. When you purchased the opener, instructions should have been included. Make sure that you read and follow the directions.
If there are no blocks on the ceiling, install one. This is used in order to actually attach the device to the ceiling of your garage. The instructions should provide you with specifications in regards to the blocking. You also want to find a point of connection to attach the bracket to the door. Then lean the part of the assembly that is on the opposite end of the motor compartment above the door. Once you have done this, you can lift the other side. Finally, you want to attach the bracket to the door.

Organic apple cider vinegar is antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal, so it can soothe your sore throat, heal your heartburn, remove that persistent wart and so much more.
Apple Cider Vinegar is a multi-utility ingredient which is equally useful as a kitchen ingredient as well as for beautifying your skin and hair. This amazing ingredient can be used for treating pimples, allergies, healing bruises, infections, for lowering high cholesterol levels, addressing hair and skin problems like dandruff, dull and dry hair. And also One of the most popular uses of apple cider vinegar is in treating digestion problems. Below are wonderful uses of apple cider vinegar.
Apple Cider Vinegar Uses:
Hair Care
Apple cider vinegar is a natural cleanser. It can balance oil production of the scalp and help remove environmental contaminants and dead skin. It can also help prevent or eliminate dandruff when used properly. Simply use a rinse of apple cider vinegar in water for a healthier head of hair.
Whiten Teeth
Dip the finger in apple cider vinegar and rub the teeth gently with it. Then rinse the mouth with water. This habit helps to maintain oral cleanliness, prevent discolouration and stains on the teeth.
Reduces Swelling
A gargle of ACV can help ease the inflammation and discomfort of a sore throat. Simply mix 1-2 tablespoons of ACV with warm water and rinse your mouth and throat up to once an hour as needed. As a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down, I find you can also swap one tablespoon of ACV for honey in the same mixture and sip slowly for sweet relief.
Weight Loss
Apple cider vinegar improves detoxification, digestion and metabolism. It helps to burn the fat, prevents its further deposition in the body, suppress sugar cravings and appetite on the whole. It eliminates gastric, prevent abdominal bloating and promotes weight loss.
Increases Oxygenation
Apple Cider vinegar helps maximize the digestion process through its natural acidity. ACV helps break down the food you eat and release more iron into your blood stream than you would normally process. This extra iron draws extra oxygen into your blood as well, helping everything from cell generation to skin health.
Household Cleanser
Mix water and apple cider vinegar in equal amount and spray on the windows, counters and glass in the house. Then wipe it away with a sponge or soft cloth. The powerful cleansing and anti bacterial property of this solution helps to disinfect and clean the house effectively and naturally.
Wart Remover
Apple cider vinegar helps to remove wart. Soak a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar and place it directly on the warts. Cover with a bandage and wait for about half an hour. After some time, replace the bandage and the cotton swab. Repeat the process thrice every day for a week or so to get rid of the warts.
Controls Diabetes
One of the most amazing benefits of apple cider vinegar is definitely its ability to reduce and regulate glucose levels in the blood. A number of studies have proven this property. The daily dosage for this type of treatment is two tablespoons dissolved in a glass of water, which you should drink before going to bed at night. It can lower your sugar levels by up to 6%. However, you should check with your doctor before pursing this treatment because apple cider vinegar has chromium, a component than can upset your insulin levels.

While the digital shopping space in India has been largely dominated by large online retailers, it's interesting to see another Indian retail leader enter the space. Shoppers Stop been an Indian retail leader and it is now making its presence felt in the online space as well. In addition to the Shoppers Shop website, which I have often shopped at, I recently discovered the Shoppers Stop app.
I decided to download it on my iPhone and check it out.
In terms of layout, the app is pretty simple. Shoppers Stop is not all about fashion, it's a lifestyle brand and hence the categories have been divided into Men's Fashion, Women's Fashion, Kidswear, Homeware, Brands and Gifts. The featured brands under Shoppers Stop are Haute Curry, Stop, Life, Elliza Donatein, Kashish, Rocky Star and Femina Flaunt.
There is a separate offers' zone, where certain promotions are displayed.
What I found particularly interesting is the Trends and More section. From a men's fashion perspective I found this great – there's a section where trends are decoded, adding a more editorial and informative angle to the app shopping experience. For instance, the Bollywood airport style feature uses different Bollywood actors and decodes their airport style. Each piece of the look is then showcased as a separate piece under the "Get the look" section.
Going deeper into the men's fashion section, the simplicity of the layout and categories impressed me. Under the men's fashion section, there are clearly divided categories of shirts, shoes, suits & blazers, t-shirts and accessories.
Since I am obsessed with any sort of grooming product, I clicked on the image of a Philips beard trimmer, which instantly took me to a section of shavers and trimmers. (Needless to say, I got lost in there for a few minutes, comparing features and price points).
What would a men's fashion section be without watches? Being a watch geek myself, I clicked on the watch section to see what was on offer — an interesting selection of premium and high-street brands like Casio and Swiss Eagle, among others. A great place to shop for a watch for everyday wear, if you're not looking for an outright splurge.
And finally, I chanced upon the Travel Essentials section, where I browsed through a selection of Samsonite and Delsey cabin bags.
My verdict: the Shoppers Stop app is a great one-stop shop for all your lifestyle essentials. If, like me, you have shopped at their stores over the years, you will quite enjoy the app experience too.

There are three main types of chronic wounds that we treat at Pueblo Ankle and Foot Care. These wounds are diabetic foot ulcerations, wounds originating due to swelling and vein problems, and wounds coming from artery problems.
Diabetic wounds typically result from increased pressure areas that the diabetic patient may not be able to feel while walking due to decreased pain sensitivity. These wounds are typically found in high pressure areas on the bottom of the feet or along prominent areas.
Venous wounds occur typically along the inside of the leg and result from excessive swelling. If you pop a hole in a balloon and blow the balloon up, the hole appears larger as it gets stretched. This is similar to venous wounds because increased swelling will stretch the skin and keep wounds from closing.
Arterial wounds are when the skin is not healthy due to lack of blood flow and nutrients. The skin becomes vulnerable and it is easier to break down and takes longer to heal.
The team at Pueblo Ankle and Foot Care is able to use techniques such as offloading high pressure areas, decreasing swelling, and increasing blood flow to wounds to help the healing process as well as monitoring wounds to keep them from getting infected.

The Himalayan Expedition 2010 by Sanjay Madan & Pankaj Chanana
Sanjay Madan & Pankaj Chanana drove a Tata Nano to the Top Of The World!
It didn't took too long for Sanjay Madan a keen adventurer to take a decision and finally add this little car to his fleet of possessions which includes a Land Cruiser.
This much talked about "Little Toddler", a common man's car meant to be mostly driven on the city roads did its way to the rooftop of the world and proved itself. I have since rightly named as "Tough Toddler".
29 May - We began our journey to Leh – Ladakh from Delhi and stretch the day to reach Nalagarh Fort, about 285 kms towards north. Fuel average for 1st day was 20.4 Kmpl with the A/C switched on.
30 May - The next day began relaxed, reached Manali (290 kms from Nalagarh).It was already late evening by then. We were on an up hill drive
31 May – Headed to 'Rohtang Pass' at the height of 3980 meters! While this Little car was scaling heights head turners weren't stopping. Everyone was amazed, as they asked, is this a Tata Nano?
We haulted at Tandi Petrol Station (2573 meters above sea level) and affirmation from them was that this was the first one to climb this high. They hadn't seen it before. We reached Hotel Ibex, Jispa late afternoon and heard that the roads further were closed.It was a painful wait for the route to open and we waited for next 6 days.
6 June - Met an Army Colonel, K.S Kajal enroute to Ladakh. He assured us that if route opened, we would be able to make our way further along with their Convoy.
Late noon, we headed forward towards 'Barlacha La Pass' at the height of 4892 meters. It was a tough patch with 6 to 10feet of snow walls on both sides. This 20 Kms stretch with snow clad hills was crossed with the help of army personnel.
We reached Sarchu (4253 meters above sea level) late evening and stayed at an Army transit camp thanks to Colonel Kajal.
7 June – We packed our bags and headed further. We had scary experience just after Ghata Loops where the car skid on black ice and went out of control for a second. We needed to deflate the cars tyres to get more traction on road and set out again. We crossed 'Lachalang La Pass' at 5065 meters & then 'Tanglang La Pass' at a whopping 5360 meters before finally reaching Leh in the evening.
The journey was however far from over, our aim was to drive this little wonder to the top of 'Khardungla' the highest motor able road in the world at 18380 feet above sea level. Even at such high altitudes the fuel economy of the Nano was an amazing 14.8 kmpl.
8 June – We got a permit from the Leh DC Office and headed for top of Khardungla. The dream came true our Tata Nano had scaled heights and proudly made its mark as it stood on the highest mountain pass in the world. The Nano had proved its capabilities.
9 June – The mighty Nano crossed 'Fotu La Pass' at 4108 meters and reached Kargil at 0400 hrs. We went to bed immediately and began the journey to Srinagar at 0800 hrs. The highlight of this route was 'Zozil La Pass' at 3529 meters, famous for it's difficult passage which can be tough to pass for regular commuters as well. As though this wasn't enough, the rains only made things worst.
However after a difficult drive we finally reached Srinagar by 1800 hrs and next day headed back home. We drove 26 hours covering 900 Kms from Srinagar to Delhi (another performance test) for the proven Nano and reached Delhi by evening. To top the champagne with ice, this time the Nano returned an impressive 24 Kmpl!
