About Trident:
Trident Group is a leading diversified group of businesses. As a USD 1 billion Indian business conglomerate and a global player, Trident Limited (Trident) is the flagship company of Trident Group.
The flagship operates in two major segments namely home textiles and paper – with manufacturing facilities in Punjab and Madhya Pradesh.
Trident has acquired wide and varied global scale capabilities in the production of terry towel and bedsheet. From a variety of fibres and yarns to a range of colours, both in piece dyed and yarn dyed, plains and jacquards, to a complete collection of performance finishes and surface decorations, the range of products keeps expanding to meet the unique needs of the customers.
Globally-renowned clientele:
The Company has a strong client list comprising global retail and institutional brands across 60 countries like J.C. Penney, Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Carrefour S.A., H&M, IKEA, Marks & Spencer, ITC Hotels, Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces and Oberoi Hotels & Resorts, among others.
Trident- Enhancing Profitability
Business transformation- Trident transformed itself business from being a standalone yarn manufacturer to one of the largest integrated home textile manufacturers in the world. Yarn used to account for 60 per cent of our total revenues, whereas in FY16 higher margin Home Textiles accounted for 60 per cent of the total textile revenues. By the next two years, we expect high margin Bath and Bed Linen products to contribute about 80 per cent of the same.
Value-addition- Trident has progressively trended its paper output towards value-addition. Five years ago, 100 per cent of its paper manufacturing capacity comprised maplitho as well as writing & printing paper. There has been a big transformation since; copier paper, fetching higher realizations over the conventional varieties, now accounts for about 50 per cent of its capacity and is projected to increase to 60 per cent to 70 per cent of all its paper output two years from now.
Efficiencies- Trident continues to enhance operating efficiency that makes it possible to sweat its global scale assets and infrastructure. The Company intends to enhance capacity utilisation, improve product quality and optimise the consumption of utilities and consumables.
Welspun's loss, Trident's gain:
After Welspun lost the Target Corp's contract to Trident and market's trust, Trident has gained a lot in business, most of which earlier belonged to Welspun. Having lived up to the trust and expectations in the field of its business, Trident has been giving out good returns on the back of all the business it gained from Welspun's loss.
Industry Outlook:
• India, the world's second largest producer of textiles and garments, accounts for 63% of the market share of textiles and garments.
• India accounts for about 14% of the world's production of textile fibres and yarns (largest producer of jute, second largest producer of silk and cotton; and thirdlargest of cellulosic fibre).
• The textile industry contributes around 14% to the IIP, 5% to the country's GDP, 27% to the Company's forex inflows and about 13% to the country's total exports earnings.
• Further, it accounts for 21% of the total employment generated in the economy, providing direct employment to over 45 million people.
• Indirect employment including the manpower engaged in agro-based raw material production like cotton and related trade and handling employs around another 60 million. It contributes to around 8% of the total excise revenue collection.
• The textile sector accounts for about 24% of the world's spindle capacity and 8% of global rotor capacity.
• Consistent long term demand because of a rising middle-class in emerging markets
• A shift towards manmade fibres due to comparatively less volatile price trend for cotton or wool.
• The textile industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9% to USD 141 billion by 2021.
• India's home textiles market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% to USD 9.9 billion in 2017 on account of increased exports growth at a CAGR of 8.4% to USD 6.0 billion in 2017.
• Bed and bath linen together constitute about 67% of the home textile industry.
• Profitability undermined due to volatile raw material prices and rising wages
• Intense competition weighing on margins that are further being stressed by e-commerce
• Changing consumer behavior (e.g. changing fashion) forcing terms and conditions to become even more flexible.
Investment Rational
• EPS has shown a jump from 1.18 to 1.54 almost 30.5% on the yearly basis.
• Bottom line in YoY has shown tremendous growth where operating profit has gone up by 33.82% and Profit after tax jumped by 25.54% YoY.
• Employee Cost has gone up by 37.86% on the yearly basis.
• The company's share price is trading almost twice its Book value.
• Company has a huge market capitalization.
• Net Debt to Equity Ratio declined to 1.4x from 1.9x in FY16
• Board declared 2nd Interim Dividend of 6% on equity shares
• Net Revenue at Rs. 1,139 crore in Q3 FY17, up 26% compared to Rs. 905 crore in Q3 FY16

• Company's total current assets have increased from 4503.89 to 5623.77.
• Indian promoters have increased their holdings in the company in September quarter from 66.49% in June to 67.77% in December.
Concerned areas to look in the company
• Company's long term borrowings have gone up from 1.396.10 in March 15 to 2136.50 in March 16.
• Total non-current liabilities stand at 2317.62 in March 16 from 1560.82 in March 15.
• Fluctuating value of the Indian rupee
• Increasing energy costs
• Continuous technology upgradation for quality and innovation entailing investments.
• International competition: Competition from countries like China, Pakistan and Turkey is fierce in the home textiles segment. With the country progressing on the path of overall development, the cost-competitiveness that Trident enjoys might deteriorate.
• The biggest challenge faced by the Indian textile industry is competition from the other up and-coming Asian economies which may attract more business from the international markets because of their lower production costs, ease-of-doing business and availability of cheap labour.

Rental listings
Wikitravel is neither an apartment-finder service nor a real estate listing service, so in general real estate and rental agency listings are not allowed. The only exception to this rule is for locations where rental properties are a common form of travel accommodation and the following requirements are met:
The general guidelines for accommodation listings apply to these listings as well, that is long lists should be avoided, and information should be concise and relevant to the traveler.
Avoid listing nearest attractions
Accommodation owners frequently give detailed list of attractions that their property is "close to". We don't welcome it here at Wikitravel:
By all means, if the hotel is attached to a particular attraction (or, say, inside the airport), mention that—but keep it to just what makes the hotel unique. Instead of writing a long flowery description of the many attractions near the property, contribute detailed latitude and longitude coordinates for the property (see Wikitravel:Geocoding)—it will be much more helpful for a traveler choosing a place to stay.
Avoid using images
Images of accommodation, including hotels and their bedrooms, are generally not used. The only exceptions are if the hotel is a well-known attraction in its own right, or if the type of accommodation is unusual and unique to the region. In the second case, identifying the lodgings where the picture was taken by name is not necessary.
Compilation from external sources
If the Sleep section of a destination articles is unfilled even after the other sections are complete, you might consider compiling material from external sources.
The name and contact details should be obtained from the official web site.
The description can be derived from an impression of the reviews that you have read, together with some facts from the official page, but you should not copy somebody else's words into Wikitravel. Avoid listing establishments where the reviews are overly negative.
Here's an idea of what a listing compiled from reviews might look like:
Note that the origin of the ideas in the listing are clearly from reviews, but that the words are not. The detail about the TV antenna could be a close call, but only if the words are copied. The presence of the antenna, and its marring of the view from a particular room, would be facts which are free from copyright.
Avoid long lists
Wikitravel is a travel guide, not the yellow pages. A long undifferentiated list of hotels is only marginally useful to the traveler. A general rule of thumb is that lists should contain 5-9 items, and when they exceed that length it is time to consider breaking them up or pruning them.
Breaking up lists
Pruning accommodation lists
Once these strategies have been taken, it may be time to start pruning the list.
Listing order
Alphabetical order should be the norm within each section. If another standard is used, it should be clearly stated so any new listing can be added to the appropriate place. Leading articles, such as "The", or "A", in the accommodation name should be ignored for the purposes of determining the order.

Reality dawns on ABABU as his money runs out after Jubilee rejected him - He's now broke00:00
... President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy, William Ruto, who, through their political mandarins, rejected him from joining the new Jubilee Party even after using him to wreck ODM and split the Western votes.
"He (Ababu Namwamba) is said to have lacked funds to conduct a membership recruitment drive," said the source.
Ababu was allegedly given a whopping sh 200 million by Uhuru/ Ruto to defect from ODM and cause mayhem in the party but has since been barred from joining Jubilee for fear that he may export his rebellious tendencies to the new outfit.
To make matters worse for him, his money has also allegedly run out.

The figure in this forceful image is readily identified. The young woman is professional model Henriette Allais -- best known as the confrontational full-length 'Big Nude III' that has become one of Newton's most celebrated and recognisable photographs.
The subject matter is less easy to unravel. At one level the picture might be read simply as a celebration of erotic fetishism. Yet, as ever with Newton's work, there are numerous features that contribute to the picture's power and to its witty perversity. Newton has chosen to photograph his model in hard sunlight outside his house at Ramatuelle near Saint Tropez. The textured wall, the strong shadows of the roof tiles and of the shutter latch are curiously, deliberately and disconcertingly out of key with the conventional closed studio world of fetish photography. Newton has chosen to pose Miss Allais in the harshest of lights, exploiting this with great skill to dramatically sculpt her torso. David Bailey once adapted Noel Coward's famous line to remark that 'only mad dogs and Helmut Newton go out in the midday sun.' Yet Newton always knew precisely how to utilise that raw sunlight to give to images such as this an extraordinary sense of heightened reality.
Newton's knowledge and enjoyment of the history of art and of photography were considerable and he would often toy with an idea he had seen in a painting or photograph from another era until he devised a way to develop it within his own picture making. Man Ray was a point of reference on more than one occasion for Newton and it is interesting to compare 'Henriette Ficelée', as this image is alternatively known, with the Surrealist's perverse sculpture of a classical torso trussed with string that he titled 'Vénus Restaurée'. Newton has given his own mischievous twist to a theme that in one form or other can be traced back through the history of artistic expression.

Osbourne House
East Cowes, England
Osbourne House East Cowes Reviews
311 reviews
Solid half day out with a good mix of culture, history, family and fun! May 06, 2016
Do not judge a book by its cover. And tell yourself the old adage again and again when you visit the Osbourne House. It's by far the most visited historic location on the island (2nd most overall, behind the Needles) but there was a whiff of skepticism as I sauntered in - entrance fees were around 17 quid and I was praying it was all well worth it.
Initially, I wasn't getting it. Between an overwhelming map and an English Heritage Trust member trying to get me to sign on to their annual membership and get me to buy some English wine, I wasn't so sure I'd made the right decision.
But things soon changed for the better.
A quick walk past manicured lawns and pebbled carparks to the main House and I lived to savour every minute that followed.
Quick history lesson from Wikipedia - Osborne House is a former royal residence in East Cowes. The house was built between 1845 and 1851 for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert as a summer home and rural retreat. An earlier smaller house on the site was demolished to make way for a new and far larger house, though the original entrance portico survives as the main gateway to the walled garden.
So now you know you can expect a whole of pomp, splendour and art in a house that was a holiday home. And yes, it lives to the reputation. For starters, there are staff in nearly every room of the house, and are both extremely friendly and knowledgeable. There is a set "path" for the tour so you don't just meander into any room, but somewhere I ended up taking the lift instead of the stairs and so I lost the plot. So the guide had to bring me back to where I was and i followed the "path" (follow the blue velvet rope!). The rooms, corridors, just about everything was dotted with paintings both Albert and Victoria acquired from various parts of the world, some as gifts and some as property (bought). Everything seemed larger than life - there were candelabras that were as colourful as Caribbean parrots, rooms were coloured bright yellow, infact there was Albert's mancave as well. Yes! There are bright flamboyant dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms and even the children's nursery. Queen Victoria apparently was a painter herself, and one can view 2-3 of her artwork. Quite impressive.
The highlight though was aptly saved till the end - the Durbar Room built for state functions. An homage to the Indian era, this room is completely Indian. The carpet is from Agra, it was designed a Sikh warrior (and the corridors leading to it has portraits of several sardars). The room also displays the gifts received by the Queen at various occasions (like silver and golden jubilee) and a very intricate Ganesha motif. This room has to be the showstopper...and as "tacky" as it may appear on 1st sight, is extremely intricate and detailed.
But this isn't all!
There's a brilliant garden reminiscent of the French and Italian style of kaleidoscope plantations.
Entrance to the site gets you attraction to the beach, the Swiss Cottage and a walled garden. The garden was rather bare (understandable as it's been a cold start of spring in Europe). The Swiss cottage however was interesting. Apparently Prince Edward had collected so many gifts he decided to build a museum at the sight of the cottage to display them. Work continued after his death on the insistence of Queen Victoria and today is a mammoth collection of just about every knick knack in the world including the smallest pair of scissors in the world! I met a very interesting staff member with whom I talked just about everything under the sun (being Indian, being Zambian, living in the US, etc.).
I stopped by the coffee shop for some awful coffee but some very good conversation with a German settled in England. Between her and this gentleman, they gave me tips on what to do for the rest of my stay on the island.
I couldn't believe I overstayed here - so much that it was past 430p so I dropped plans of visiting Carisbrooke Castle.
So once again, please do visit. Don't think of this as a place that's stood several world wars and is history-rich. No, it's a celebration. Celebration of wealth, celebration of the summer and celebration of the British Empire. Unashamedly so. And more importantly, well deservedly so!

The Strawbale Winery is in Renner, South Dakota, about 15 minutes from Sioux Falls. The winery is named for the straw that insulate its walls. The bales help the winery reduce its energy use and facilitates the climate-controlled environment necessary to produce great wine.
The tasting room is small but engaging with high tables and wine accessories packed into wooden crates along the walls. For $5, you can sample five wines and take home a commemorative glass. Once you've perused the list of wines, you write your selections on the chalkboard countertop, and the pouring begins!
In the midst of my fruity choices, I threw in a dark horse: Jalapeno. It's a white grape wine with an outrageous kick of heat. I couldn't manage more than one sip. Brown Cow is a fortified wine, a blend of a table red and brandy with flavors of chocolate, coffee and orange. It was delicious but oh so strong. Delectably dangerous.
Besides drinking and shopping, Strawbale hosts events: Sangria Sunday, Twilight Flights, and various festivals. Stop in for a quick tasting or stay for the day. Cheers!

For the study summarized in this article, extensive testing was conducted to determine the optimum design and operation of a two-pass reverse osmosis (RO) machine to produce water meeting the requirements for United States Pharmacopeia 23 (USP 23) PW. The study included the development of high-performance, sanitary-design membrane elements; a comprehensive study of two-pass ROs currently in operation; and an intensive production-scale evaluation of a two-pass RO performance, examining various operational variables.
Carbon Dioxide and Conductivity
The proposed USP 23 PW monograph will call for on-line (or immediate off-line) conductivity at or below 1.3 microSiemens per centimeter (µS/cm) (when the temperature is at or above 25°C [77°F]) as Stage 1 testing. The second-stage testing calls for off-line analysis showing a conductivity of 2.4 µS/cm (at 25°C ± °C) This off-line conductivity requirement is higher than the on-line requirement, allowing for the increase in conductivity caused by the contribution of dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) gas present in the water. Thus, a key to producing water meeting the on-line requirement is the removal of CO2 from the water.
When CO2 gas is dissolved in water, a portion reacts with the water (H2O) molecules to form carbonic acid. Being a dissolved gas, the CO2 passes completely through an RO membrane, and once the CO2 reassociates with water molecules to form bicarbonate (HCO3) in the RO product water, it contributes to the conductivity of the permeate water.

Residents of Bourne and Stamford will be treated to a carnival-like atmosphere at two major events this summer.
For the first time Bourne will host an international food festival and street market on Sunday, June 29.
Organiser Gordon Cochran also runs the town's Christmas festival and hopes to liven up Bourne' summer calendar with the new event.
He said: "I've been doing the Christmas event for three years and have been trying to kick-start the town into doing other things.
"I want to give a bit more life to Bourne. "
North Street and Abbey Road will be closed off for the event, which will feature an international food market.
The streets will be lined with stalls, there will be small funfair attractions and other entertainment through the day. Mr Cochran, who runs Gordon's Photographic, hopes to involved school children and wants to create a carnival atmosphere in the town.
If you would like to help out or book a stall call him on 01778 394434.
Stamford's packed calendar will also feature a treat for food and music lovers. Last year's Stamford Feast and Party on the Point has been rebranded Stamford Summer Fayre and will take place on Sunday, June 1.
Stamford town councillor Sue Sandall, who is helping to organise the event, explained the reason for the name change. She said: "We wanted to try to do something for everyone."
This year's event will still feature a range of food stalls, along with a picnic area and chairs and tables.
There will be a funfair and facepainting for youngsters and a stage full of musical acts throughout the day. Already booked to appear are folk group Pennyless and junior choir The Harminies.
And finally, a new festival of fun will be held on the Meadows in July and August. Anyone who wants to help out should e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

Crazed Gunman Attacks New York!
Great news for real New Yorkers! The only person gunning people down in New York today (so far!) is in New York-New York, the casino in Las Vegas. Yay us! "Investigators are still collecting bullets," said the local cops. That is sad. But don't worry, gamblers. Someday the gentrification of New York will reach all the way to Nevada.

Look for the handsome and talented Justin Gaston to debut in Salem in the new contract role of Ben on the February 27th episode of Days of our Lives! As we have learned, Ben is the brother of none other than Jordan played by Chrishell Stause!
As we had previously reported, the casting breakdown for the role of Ben went out this past summer with the character description as early-to-mid 20′s midwestern or southern (very slight southern accent) country boy. He is utterly charming in his honest sincere approach to life and love. Ben can also sing and/or play the guitar, though it is not necessary."

How do you prepare for Cruise Bumping?

When the cruiseline "bumps" passengers, do them give them any type of compensation for the inconvenience?
I would think that the cruiseline would help somewhat when it comes to travel arrangements. If they give you advance notice, airline tickets can be changed for $100 or less per ticket. I wonder if the cruiseline takes on this cost or at least give some sort of discount for the rescheduled cruise.
If it is a group that is asking for a certain number of cabins and the ship can only accommodate this group by bumping someone else, then the cruiseline personnel gets on the phone and start to make calls offering all kinds of deals in order to give people incentive to give up their cabins for that particular ship/date.
When a ship is pulled for the entire cruise, I do not believe the cruiselines just calls, cancels and say, "oops, too bad -- oh so sad."

Not All Reality Bites
The reality TV phenomenon has worn a little thin for me. An avid "Real World" fan from the get-go (almost 15 years ago!), I think my eyes started glazing over sometime around "The Anna Nicole Show." My fascination with "Flavor of Love" was nothing short of a sickness, one from which I've now recovered (I won't be there for a rumored second season).
I can still get into a little vintage "Osbournes," but tend to shy away from "Meet the Barkers." It's just seems that in the past few years, reality TV has become completely unreal. It's all the "Surreal Life," if ya get my meaning. In what world -- other than one involving hefty payments -- would Daniel Baldwin, Biz Markie and the freaking Snapple lady compete to lose weight? It's like watching a train wreck and one can only watch so many wrecks without developing post traumatic stress disorder.
Yet along the way, there have been some instances of networks using their reality powers for good. For instance, "American Chopper," "Cops" (we can debate this one in comments) and the excellent PBS offerings "Manor House," "Frontier House," "1900 House" and the soon to come "Texas Ranch House."
While channel surfing before the Simpsons* on Sunday night, the hubby and I came across "Little People, Big World." The show's been airing on TLC since March 4, so I'm probably one of the last owners of a cable box to catch it and for that I'm sorry. Because this show is reality done right.
On the off chance that someone else out there hasn't yet caught "Little People, Big World," here's the set-up: The show follows Oregon's Roloff family. Mom, dad and one son are little people -- meaning 4-feet tall. Three children are average size. With wit, restraint, timing and access, TLC's cameras give us a peek into what we soon see is an average American family, albeit one with a few more challenges than most.
In one episode, father Matt speaks at a junior high about little people, prejudice and acceptance -- lessons that can't help but be absorbed while watching this excellent, entertaining half-hour of TV.
*Speaking of the Simpsons, did anyone see that they actually ran the live action sequence I linked to a couple of weeks ago during the opening credits? Very cool move.

The Roloff's have three average sized children, not two. Other than that, I agree with all the good things you said about "Little People, Big World." I just wish there were more episodes, I've now seen all of them, and some more than once.

Yeah, I caught this show by accident, too, and was just really touched and intrigued. I like that they let them be human - don't try to idealize little people into a glossy over-generalization.
My heart aches for the one son, though, watching what he's going through with his oblivious twin.

The Simpsons did run the video, but reversed the negative to make it look like the cars were driving on the right side of the road and the steering wheel was on the left, unlike Britain where the live-action sequence was made.

One thing I really like about the show is they show you how the family deals with issues everyone wonders about but are afraid to ask a little person. Like the show where the mom goes grocery shopping. OMG the woman is AMAZING.
While there are many additional issues that they face the fact is they do more than most of us ever will (camping, coach soccer, run a farm).

I had seen a one time show on the Oloffs some time ago and was pleasantly surprised while channel surfing to see them again. I thought it was a repeat and wanted to see the whole show since I had only seen part of the special. I'm not a fan of "reality" TV but this type of reality TV I find very enlightening and entertaining. What a shame that that this show wasn't on the radar and most people seem to have come across it by accident.

Ok, I watch a lot of TLC and Discovery Channel. I saw a "feature" on the Roloff family last year. At that time, they had the twin sons and an adopted Romanian daughter named Sasha, who was not only a little person, but she was autistic as well. Now I see they have a "reality show" and they have "added" a 6 year old son and 13 year old daughter and Sasha has "disappeared". This disturbs me. But I still watch the show.
Posted by: Karla | March 28, 2006 4:59 PM | Report abuse
Note to the poster above - The "feature" you are referring to is about a completely different family, who had two sons and an adopted autistic daughter from Eastern Europe - all of them little people.

The live action Simpsons couch gag was slated to be used in the show from the get-go, pending Gracie's (the production company) approval afetr it was made. It was commissioned by the UK channel that now has rights to syndicated reruns as a promtional item, with approval to attempt it from Gracie.
Hardly a farsighted 'prediction' that it would be used - but the only changes required were flipping the negative digitally in the scenes of Homer driving and Marge & Maggie 'driving', because of the UK --> US driving rules. They also made Homer's car more "pink" as compared to the UK version, as a correction.

Our entire family thoroughly enjoyed following the every day life of the Roloffs - They are inspirational in their positive attitudes. They have taught us that even though there may be differences between individuals, we should ultimately embrace our similarities. We are definitely looking forward to Season 2 with the Roloffs & Thank-you for sharing your life with us!

Now, let me start by saying I cannot condone alcoholism, and I'm not saying Giants hitters should go out and pound a few before they face Jamie Moyer tomorrow. I'm just going to tell you a story.
Actually, I'll let Ellis Burks tell you this story:
"Charlie Hayes once told me he asked who was pitching one night. It was Kirk Rueter, and Hayes said, 'Man, I should have gotten s– faced last night.'
"Charlie was talking about how he faced Rueter back in Montreal," Burks said. "He heard Rueter was a soft-throwing lefty, so he said, 'I'm going to go out and get s– faced tonight, so it'll slow my bat down so I can hit him.'
Stories will get embellished, but sure enough the records show that on Sept. 13, 1995, Hayes faced Rueter twice in a 5-4 Expos victory over Philadelphia and singled both times.
Lest anyone doubt Hayes' reasoning, F.P. Santangelo said that Dodgers teammate Kevin Elster was out till 3 in the morning pounding the sauce the night before Pacific Bell Park opened in 2000. In that game, a day game, Elster hit three home runs.
Two of them off Rueter.
"Same theory," Burks said with a laugh.
Maybe the Bambino had something there.

Champion Leaves Sydney In Attempt to Tie Record
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: December 26, 2007
Wild Oats X1 has begun its attempt to win the Sydney-to-Hobart yacht race for the third consecutive year, something no yacht has done since 1948.
About 80 yachts from around Australia and overseas set sail Tuesday from Sydney harbor on a 723-mile trip down the southeast coast of Australia and across Bass Strait to the island of Tasmania.
In winning the race for the first time in 2005, Wild Oats took more than an hour off the previous record to win in 1 day 18 hours 40 minutes 10 seconds. Nokia set the previous mark in 1999 of 1 day 19 hours 48 minutes 2 seconds.
Last year, Wild Oats was not quite as quick because of unfavorable conditions, needing two days and more than eight hours to finish. It became only the sixth boat to record back-to-back victories in the race, and the first since Astor in 1963-64.
Wild Oats is trying to duplicate the record of Moran, which won in 1946-48.
The New Zealand boat Maximus had to withdraw because of a damaged keel. That left Wild Oats as the favorite to be the first yacht to reach Constitution Dock in Hobart, Tasmania's capital.
City Index Leopard, the new British maxi, could be a challenger, especially in strong headwinds. The Victorian state supermaxi Skandia, which won in 2003, was also expected to be near the head of the fleet.
Rosebud, the entry from the United States, emerged as a possible contender after taking handicap honors in the Big Boat Challenge and Rolex Trophy series.
The international contingent also includes five other yachts from Britain and the first Hobart race entry from Mexico, Iataia. The 40-foot Iataia spent the past six months crossing the Pacific Ocean to make the start.
Iataia has a crew of nine Mexicans. One lives in Brisbane; none of the crew had ever attempted a race to Hobart.
''We know that we have a disadvantage with that, but we would like to try for all Mexicans,'' Marcos Rodriguez, the owner of Iataia, said.
''When we thought about maybe someone local, our main concern was the language, eight speaking Spanish and one speaking English.
Rodriguez and his skipper, Marc Rosenfeld, said they received great support from the local sailing community.
''We've been getting the knowledge in the bar, and they tell us what to do and what not to do,'' Rosenfeld said.
Rodriguez said the boat's name did not translate into English because it was a combination of two letters from the names of each of his two daughters and his former wife.
England's Mike Slade, owner of City Index Leopard, said he was hoping to deny his Wild Oats counterpart, Bob Oatley, a record-tying win.
''You've got to sail the right course, you've got to get there and you've got to cross the line first,'' Slade said. ''The most important of those is getting there in one piece.''
The weather forecasts for Tuesday suggested that a race record might not be possible because of unfavorable wind conditions.
The Sydney sailor John Walker, 85, became the oldest skipper to compete in the race. Victorian's Lou Abrahams, who is 80 and a two-time overall winner, is racing a record-tying 44th Sydney to Hobart.
Last year's race was hit by bad weather. Eight sailors had to abandon a sinking vessel and three others were airlifted to a hospital with injuries. In 1998, six sailors were killed and seven boats sank when a storm hit the race.

We don't feature a ton of e-sessions on SMP because we like to focus more on the details and the style of a real wedding...BUT, I couldn't resist sharing this one with you. The photographs, by CLY Creation, are so insanely beautiful. Romantic, ethereal, artistic. Images that you could easily hang on the walls of your home and without a doubt use as incredible inspiration for your own engagement portraits. To see even more, click right here.
click here to see the full gallery!
My fiancee and I chose downtown NYC as the backdrop for our engagement session with CLY Creation because I grew up in the city and went to high school just behind the buildings that served as our backdrop. Being in front of the skyline, something I grew up looking at, felt very homey, believe it or not! I also liked the idea of juxtaposing the grandness of the skyscrapers against the tenderness between the two of us.
CLY Creation has a vintage look to its photographs, which I adore, and so I paired a pearl necklace and pearls on my ears with my vintage-y polka-dot silk shantung dress. We also brought along our save-the-date: bookmarks that we DIY-ed with custom illustration done by the Emmy Award-winning artist Seonna Hong, my fiancee's sister! All in all, the result, I think, was the perfect twist on a vintage-New York photoshoot!

Ask a Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hello Alex,
I have 6 points on my licence which was given 2 years ago.
I accepted the speed of 87 mph when the office stopped me and he showed me on his video recorder. It was an unmarked police vehicle driving behind me.
I apologised and pleaded for a verbal warning but he said he would have to complete the form as 87 was well above 70. He further said it will not be more than either an offer of a speeding course or a fixed notice based on the speed relative to the limit.
I gave me a copy of the form he completed but on getting home i then noticed he has put 60 as speed limit on that road ( instead of 70) which in my opinion was an error. the ticketing office obviously based thier judgment on 87 on 60 road rather then on 70 road which is why they have sent a letter to me that ' the speed at which you were travveling falls outside the conditional offer of a fixed penalty criteria and they will pass the case on to the Criminal justice unit who will now take responsibility of the offence and i will recieve a summons in due course.
Yes , it was an SP50 offence, and given 6 points in June 2011.
I've been offered a speed awareness course which i just did yesterday!
I was caught doing 70 on a 60 zone in July which was why i was offered this course.
This current offence was 5 days ago and I told the officer at the time that I even have a speed awareness course which was would be doing on Thgursday ( yesterday ).

This can be done from some programs, such as Global Writer. However,

If your Urdu fonts are encoded according to a suitable Windows code

I don't know about Arabic Windows, but I know of two alternatives

2. Global Writer or the combination of Global Office and Microsoft

10 Great Movie Ideas
These 10 great movie ideas don't always result in great movies, but there's no disputing the brilliance of the conceits. In an artistic tradition that prides itself on sticking to the tried and true, these films stepped outsid the box in an attempt to blow our effing minds.
"Rashomon" – The premise of Kurosawa's classic "Rashomon" is one of ten great movie ideas. The film tackles judgment, law, power, morality, subjectivity and bias by examining a murder from four different perspectives during the course of a criminal trial.
"Metropolis" – Any film dealing with deceit, power, conspiracy, duplicity and the ethical ramifications of technological advancement owe their bread and butter to "Metropolis." The epic German film tells the tale of a scientist who clones the kind-hearted leader of a group of disenfranchised workers. The clone encourages the workers to reap a bloody vengeance upon their oppressors. It's one of ten great movie ideas.
"Citizen Kane" – We don't blame you if you don't like this movie. Hell, we don't really like it that much, either. But its premise is one of ten great movie ideas. It's simple and incredibly effective: place a question in the head of the audience and tell a chronologically disjointed film that offers countless clues as to the answer to this question without revealing it until the very end.
"Star Wars" – There are enough brilliant ideas in "Star Wars" to fill a list of ten great movie ideas. First, there's the basic idea behind the films: make a Kurosawa samurai epic set in space and filled with aliens. Second, there's the intentional mythology: it's reported that Lucas plotted the progression of the films by studying the archetypal pattern of ancient hero myths.
"Eurasian News Anchor Desires Nakadashi Rape" – This thirty-minute porn deserves a place on this list. The idea is this: Japanese porn star Maria Ozawa does a full newscast while naked men enter the news studio to copulate with and ejaculate on her. Ozawa's clothes ar taken off, her hair mussed (with naughty sauce), her make up run, her stockings torn, yet she continues to do the news cast until the very end. It's like Monty Python with penetration.
"Die Hard" – "Die Hard" revolutionized the action genre with a simple, brilliant premise (the idea) and flawless execution (the action). The idea: a group of terrorist takes over and locks down a building, unaware that a cop is in there with them. The action: Bruce Willis fucking up a bunch of hired thugs and going toe-to-toe with Alan Rickman. It's a great movie idea.
"The Matrix" – Any list of ten great movie ideas would be anemic without "The Matrix." It's like "Alice in Wonderland" meets "Terminator" in the depths of surreal hell governed by the explosive tenants of John Woo, anime and ancient philosophy. How can that be bad?
"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" – "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" is slated for release in 2012, directed by Kazakh madman Timur Bekmambetov. The plot is one of ten great movie ideas: Abraham Lincoln starts the Civil War to exact revenge on slave-trading vampires who killed his mother.
"UP" – "UP" is neither the best Pixar film nor the best animated movie. However, it is one of ten great movie ideas, and certainly the most conceptually brilliant animation in recent memory. The conceit is simple: a man uses thousands of balloons to lift his house and fly to South America.
"Showgirls" – A young woman makes her way to Las Vegas to become a dancer and ends up embroiled in a battle with factions of nefarious strippers in an effort to claw her way to the top of titty bar pantheon. Huh? Well, there's tits, sex, swimming pools, murder, intrigue and the exploitative direction on Paul Verhoeven. We're in.

The Second Amendment is a fundamental birth-right. Washington can't cherry pick our constitutional rights. - Sen. Paul (R) KY
Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) February 23, 2013
In response to President Obama's twenty-three executive orders on January 16th, gun rights advocates and Tea Party groups around the country assemble today to make their voices heard.
This event taking place on the date 2/23 is no accident. The rifle at the center of the gun control debate since Sandy Hook has been the AR-15, which uses .223 Remington ammunition. Organized by Dustin Stockton, Western Representation PAC, and The Tea Party.net, dayofresistance.com boasts a list of over 100 rallies, nation-wide that are taking place today.
As people begin assembling to assert their right to keep and bear arms, you can almost feel that buzz of revolution, reminiscent of the early 2009 Tea Party days. The "Day of Resistance" as it has been named, even has their own investment-grade silver coin. Minted in partnership with Texas-based Coins for the Cause, https://dayofresistancecoin.com (the website where they are being sold) claims to "encourage those who have lost faith in their government to 'stack silver' as a form of resistance against the constant intrusions by their federal government."
Tens of thousands are expected to gather and there is already talk about follow-up events as GOP leaders in Washington begin to join in and express their assent.
Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky posted a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ehNzygtuvRw yesterday in support of the idea. "Disarming the population [is the] first step toward controlling their lives," said Paul as he likened the gun grab to historical examples that took place under communism and fascism. "We have a president, not a king," the senator reiterated, saying he supports the peaceful resistance of politicians "cherry picking" our constitutional rights.

Why do athletes get paid so much? Athletes getting paid too much! Focus Question Why I choose this topic I choose this topic because I really enjoy watching sports and get entertained by it, and I have always wanted to know how much they get paid because I had heard they get paid alot. ive always thought that they get paid too much so i wanted to do some research and see how much they really get and should they get paid that much. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/366795-do-athletes-get-paid-too-much-money Sub Questions Are athletes getting paid
a reasonable amount for the
time and effort they put in? should athletes get paid more then doctors? Does entertainment play a role in athletes incomes? Tentative Thesis Athletes get paid way too much for effort they put in compared to educated people. Magazine/Newspaper
While all of this is happening in front of our eyes, we are simultaneously watching professional athletes get paid millions of dollars to play sports and entertain us. Is it just me, or is something seriously wrong with this picture?According to the Sports Illustrated list of the 50 top-earning American athletes the average earning of this year's 50 is $24.3 million. I am aware that professional athletes are talented and are the best at their respective sports, but how can they justify getting paid millions of dollars? Specialized Magazine Do Athletes Deserve Millions?
Sarah Rodriguez September 12, 2011, 1:28 PM Scholarly Journal Do Professional Athletes Get Paid Too Much Money? BY MIHIR BHAGAT (SENIOR ANALYST) ON MARCH 21, 2010 Wouldn't it be great to make nearly $111 million a year simply to play a game? Tiger Woods, along with many other professional athletes, certainly think so. But do these athletes really deserve all that money? In my mind, absolutely not. Professional athletes are making too much money in a society where salaries and wages are traditionally based on the value of one's work. In today's society, one should be paid according to the job's economic importance and their value to society. http://www.westerngazette.ca/2011/09/23/are-athletes-paid-too-much/ Are athletes paid too much?
Editorial Board September 23, 2011
Amber Garratt There are people starving in Africa, thousands of people living in homeless shelters across Canada, devastating environmental disasters across the world—all of which could be solved, at least in part, with money. http://www.sikids.com/kid-reporter-blogs/2011/09/12/do-athletes-deserve-millions As the United States goes through a recession, many professional athletes are still being paid gigantic contracts. Do they really deserve these outrageous paychecks? The simple answer is NO, however there are a few positives involved with giving out this amount of money.
Life is hard for so many ordinary Americans. As they are struggling financially, people are expected to ask: Why do athletes continue to receive higher and higher salaries? I believe, like many, it is crazy to pay a single person $100 million (in Michael Vick's case) within a span of a few years. In 2011 alone, Alex Rodriguez is projected to make a whopping $32 million!
With this type of money comes a large amount of responsibility, and many athletes today have failed to invest their money wisely. Countless professional athletes have wasted the gifts they have been given. According to an article in Bloomberg Businessweek, numerous athletes have had to file for bankruptcy due to poor choices with their money.

Microsoft is trying to fix what it got wrong with its radical makeover of Windows. It's making the operating system easier to navigate and enabling users to set up the software so it starts in a more familiar format designed for personal computers.
The revisions to Windows 8 will be released later this year. The free update, called Windows 8.1, represents Microsoft's concessions to long-time customers taken aback by the dramatic changes to an operating system that had become a staple in households and offices around the world during the past 20 years.
Microsoft Corp. announced it plans for Windows 8.1 earlier this month. The first details about what will be included in the update are being provided in a Thursday post on Microsoft's website.
The Redmond, Wash., company gave The Associated Press a glimpse at Windows 8.1 Wednesday. A more extensive tour of Windows 8.1 and several new applications built into the upgrade will be provided in San Francisco at a Microsoft conference for programmers scheduled to begin June 26.
With the release of Windows 8 seven months ago, Microsoft introduced a startup screen displaying applications in a mosaic of interactive tiles instead of static icons.
The shift agitated many users who wanted the option to launch the operating system in a mode that resembled the old setup.
That choice will be provided in Windows 8.1, although Microsoft isn't bringing back the start menu. That menu that could be found in the left-hand corner of a computer screen by clicking a Windows logo on all other versions of the operating system since 1995. The lack of a start button ranks among the biggest gripes about Windows 8.
Microsoft is hoping to quiet the critics by allowing users start the operating system in a desktop design with an omnipresent Windows logo anchored in the lower left corner of the display screen. Users will also be able to ensure their favorite applications, including Word and Excel, appear in a horizontal task bar next to the Windows logo.
The switch should ease the "cognitive dissonance" caused by Windows 8, said Antoine Leblond, who helps oversee the operating system's program management.
Windows 8.1 will lean heavily on Microsoft's Bing search technology to simplify things.
As with Windows 8, the search bar can found by pulling out a menu from the right side of a display screen. Rather than requiring a user to select a category, such as "files" or "apps," Windows 8.1 will make it possible to find just about anything available on the computer's hard drive or on the Web by just typing in a few words. For instance, a search for "Marilyn Monroe" might display biographical information about the late movie star pulled from the Web, a selection of photos and video and even songs she sang. Anyone who want to hear a particular song stored on the computer or play a specific game such as "Angry Birds" will just need to type a title into the search box to gain access within seconds.
The redesigned search tool is meant to provide Windows 8.1 users with "pure power and instant entertainment," said Jensen Harris, Microsoft's director of user experience for the operating system.
Applications also can be found by sorting them by letter or category.
Other new features in Windows 8.1 include a built-in connection with Microsoft's online storage system, SkyDrive, to back up photos, music and program files; a lock-up screen that will display a slide show of a user's favorite pictures; larger and smaller interactive tiles than Windows 8 has; and a photo editor.
In an effort to avoid any further confusion about the operating system, Windows 8.1 also will plant a tile clearly labeled "helps and tips" in the center of the startup screen.
Microsoft made the dramatic overhaul to Windows in an attempt to expand the operating system's franchise beyond personal computers that rely on keyboards and mice to smartphones and tablet computers controlled by a touch or swipe of the finger.
But Windows 8 has been widely panned as a disappointment, even though Microsoft says it has licensed more than 60 million copies so far.
One major research firm, International Data Corp., blamed the redesigned operating system for worsening a decline in PC sales by confusing prospective buyers. Meanwhile, Windows 8 hasn't proven it's compelling enough to put a major dent in the popularity of Apple Inc.'s pioneering iPad or other tablets running on Google Inc.'s Android software.

Zander's bio says that he's a former captain of his swim team and a college student. I know that swimmers are generally pretty lean, but this guy is quite skinny. But I like slender guys and Zander is quite cute. He was in need of some extra cash so he stripped off his clothes over at Straight Fraternity and jacked his cock for the cameras.
He also likes playing with his furry butt hole and when the producer asked him about that Zander says, "Yes, I like my ass played with under the right circumstances." Hmmm … I wonder if we'll see him back exploring those right circumstances in a rimming or ass fucking video. Only time will tell, but in the meantime, you'll enjoy watch him spraying his cum load everywhere.

Family Law
Ask a Family Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
I would like a to take social services to court but I do not know if I can? for what they have caused under incorrect practice. which has now lead to the situation I am in now and financially having to pay out
financially my job, and emotional distress, I was acused of a false of a acusation and intimidated under my human rights.
I would like to know how to apply to court ?
and do I have a case ?
Clare Hi,
This is what part of my stage 2 complaint is regarding. The investigators are very good and are meeting with a friend of my mothers on Tuesday. as I phoned him to ask advice and was on loud speaker. whilst the s/w was asking me to sign this contract of expectations form which meant role reversal between myself and the father. This was in a room at the school when I was meant to be collecting my son and was greeted by her un announced at the car park , she said if I did not sign this then the judge would sign it , or my son would go into police custody for 48 hours if I was refusing .I feel so strongly about this and if I knew now what I did then of course I wouldn't . When I questioned this with the head of social services at Bournemouth she said this is not what we would do and because she was a agency worker and no longer iis employed by us there isn't anything we can do. This is why I have raised this as part of my complaint. do I legally have any ground to sue social services or take the matter to court ?

With the release of dual core processors, there is again a bandwidth crunch and DDR2 memory is the only source capable of filling the void. Corsair is quick on the ball, and today we have some very quick PC2-8000 compatible memory to test as a result. According to Corsair, with compatible supporting hardware, its 240-pin DDR2 Twin2X1024-8000UL memory can run at.....1000 MHz! Amazing!

Russell Cronkhite is an accomplished chef, pastry chef, and baker. He began his culinary career more than thirty years ago working and training among some of the best establishments throughout California.
In 1988, he was chosen from a distinguished field of noted American chefs to head the kitchens of Blair House, the President's guest house. Through his remarkable twelve-year "tour of duty" as Blair House executive chef, Cronkhite served Presidents Reagan, Bush and Clinton and five Secretaries of States. Nearly every major world leader of this generation visited Blair House, including Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, Boris Yeltsin, Benazir Bhutto, Yitzhak Rabin, King Hussein of Jordan, Vaclav Havel, the emperor and empress of Japan, Lech Walesa, Margaret Thatcher, François Mitterrand, Hosni Mubarak, Jiang Zemin, Queen Elizabeth II, and Prince Philip. Cronkhite has cooked for all of them.
Cronkhite worked as the recipe editor of Art Culinaire from 1990 through 1992. He has spoken often on culture, cuisine, and protocol, and in 1994 he was invited to be the featured commencement speaker for the New England Culinary Institute. Cronkhite, a frequent contributor to The Washington Post, has also had his work appear in Bon Appétit , Weber's Big Book of Grilling, Country Living Magazine and USA Today. He is currently a member of the culinary advisory board for the Art Institute of Washington, DC.
In writing his 2004 best-selling cookbook, A Return to Sunday Dinner (more than 50,000 copies sold), Cronkhite recreated his wonderful memories of childhood Sunday gatherings. "As a child we would spend Sundays with my grandparents, often joined by cousins, aunts and uncles. Birthdays and holidays become much anticipated and long-remembered special events. The food my grandmother cooked was simple and plentiful, yet the memories of her table remain clear and strong to this day. I wrote A Return to Sunday Dinner so that new generations of children can experience the long lasting memories of Sunday gettogethers."
It's those family memories that prompted Cronkhite to write A Return to Family Picnics, a new collection of mouthwatering recipes that celebrate one of America's favorite past times. "I believe that picnics of all shapes and sizes are for celebrating food and fun for all. My intention with this book is to help you create the kinds of good times that create memories of a lifetime."
