- The Past Six Months Marked by
Marine Disasters.
It Will Be Seen that a Great
Deal of Property and
' Manv Lives Were
While ocean travel to-day is surrounded
with all the safeguards that in<
genuity can devise, and men of the best
judgment and experience are placed in
charge of vessels, news of great marine
disasters is constantly being reported.
Boston has been almost a storm
centre during the past winter and the
losses in marine circles reach high into
the millions, while the losses of life are
appalling large. Fishing vessels and
smaller craft are almost daily lost, and
Acrorentf* is larse. and the losses of
>- 0~7
steamships and large oecean liners,
while infrequent, are occurring too often
to be carelessly disregarded by those
who follow the sea or have friends who
are on the vasty deep.
The news of the disaster to the Paris
near Falmouth, Eng, is another cause
of apprehension.
The following is a list of the disasters
among the larger vessels occurring
^ during the past six months. This list
may not be complete, but it includes
y?- enough vessels to show the enormous
- losses of life and property.
The November storm was the cause of
many marine losses. One of the vessels
tiiat was never heard from after

^ managed by the Manhattan Company of
New York and was captained by Orris
R. Ingraham. She carried a crew of 18
officers and men. All were lost and the
wreck has never been located.
The most disastrous loss of the November
storm was the steamer Portland.
She carried on board about 200 people
and everyone perished.
There were 155 or more wrecks in
the great storm of November. Many
of them were afterward reparied, but
the majority went to the battom to stay

The Rev. E. >L Merritt writing from

the ordinary. He says: "A very interesting

Schley is the Hero.
A dispatch from Washington to the
Atlanta Journal says nothing could
better illustrate the estimate put on
Admiral Sampson than the decorations
here during the present peace jubilee.
While likenesses of the president and
Wheeler, Lee and Dewey are in abundance,
that of Admiral Schley is over
every other building on Pennsylvania

one commented on in tlie papers here,
that the face of Sampson is not seen
throughout the length of Pennsylvania
avenue. His name is on none of the
banners, while those of Hobson, "Wheeler,
Dewey, Otis and Schley are everywhere,
and cheered lustily everywhere.
This omission is especially significant
when it is remembered that most of
Sampson's life has been sptnt in Wash- j
ington, and that he calls it home.
A Lynching in Mexico.
There was great excitement at San
Diolo. Mexico, on Wednesday over the
lynching of.seven Negro laborers of the
Mexican Central railroad. Jose Santo
a Spanish Negro, attempted to assault
the wife of Senor Duply, a ranch o^ner,
and, escaping from the plantation, was
tracked by bloodhounds, and, in company
with nine others, was captured in
a hut on the river bank opposite Eagle
Pass. The regulators did not attempt
to pnve the guilt of any of the Negroes,
but hung three of them aod shot four^
more who were attempting' to escape/
The officials are swearing in deputies,

Negro quarter. Four of the Negroes
killed are Americans, and all have
served sentences in the Texas penitentiary.
A Great Gathering of Anti-Monop

Bryan Says the Fight Agains
Oppression of Trusts is Hand
and Hand With Fight
for Free Silver.
A big Democratic Anti-Trust ban
quet was held at St. Louis, Mo., Thurs
day night. Promptly at 6:45 the cater
er's direction bell rang, the band strucl
up "The Stars and Stripes forever," ai
army of waters ladened with viands ap
peared, and the banquet was on, whilt
the 1,445 banqueters seated at th<
tables broke into a tremendous cheer
rising in a body and waving the smal

centre of these was fixed a large silvei
The dinner was concluded at S
o'clock. It was strictly a love feast.
By the time the tables were cleared the
5,000 seats of the amphitheatre wen
filled with spectators representing the
society of St. Louis and the speaking
began. The first speaker of the evening
was Harry B. Hawes, president oi
the Jefferson club, who delivered the
address of welcome, ittr. Jtiawes saiOj
in part:
"It was not intended that this dinner
should be merely the means of affording
entertainment, but it was believed
by its promoters that the serious
discussions to be held tonight will be
the crystalizing public sentiment
against the encroachment upon the liberties
of the people of the giant monopolies
and trusts. It is not sought or desired
to push to the back-ground the
vital issues of 1896, nor to lessen in
any particular the fight* to be made upon
the greatest of all trusts, the money
trust, which, greater than all. is more
dangerous than all, and by its existence
renders possible many combinations of
wealth, that, without it, could not sur
vive. The battle line must be drawn
sharp and clear with Democracy on one
hand and the trusts and the monopolies
on the other."
President Hawes was followed by
Hon. Champ Clark of Missouri, who

Mr. Clark was greeted with a tremendous
"Trusts are Democracy," occupied
Col. M. C. Wetmore of St. Louis but
a few minutes. His remarks were
greeted with cheers.
' He was followed by Hon. David E.
DeArmond of Missouri, who spoke upon
"trusts and its parents."
The applause which met Mr. Bryan
wa3 of the most flattering description.
The cheers drowned the music which
struck <up "Hold the Fort," as he advanced
to the front of the rostrum.
Mr. Bryan spoke as follows:
"An actor who visited Nebraska recently,
upon learning from a Republican
that confidence had been restored,
remarked that he had examined Web
i ?t- x c n
ster's dictionary to learn wnai cobudence'
meant and found confidence defined
as 'trust,' and then he understood
that confidence had been really restored.
"More trusts have been formed during
the last two years than existed at
the beginning of the present administration,
and the nominal capitalization
of trusts now io existence approaches,
if it does not equal in amount the
world's total supply of gold and silver.
"The influence of these trusts has

"The purpose of the trusts is to control
the product of some article of merchandise,
and the methods employ 2d
are, first, the union of all individual
factories, under one management or in
one corporation, and, second, tne crushing
jut of new rivals. A monopoly,

tax is a power to destroy. A monopoly
possesses the power to tax: it can levy
such assessments as it will upon the
purchaser, and we can no more afford
to permit such a power to be exercised
by private individuals than we cou'd
afford to authorize private individuals
to use the machinery of taxation in
order to enrich himself at the expense
of his fellows.
''One of the difficulties which has
been encountered in opposing trusts is
that the trusts hides behind the federal
constitution when attacked by State
legislation,. and shields* itself behind
its State charter when altacked in the
federal courts. No remedy will be
complete that is not co-extensive with
tbe federal government. If the extinguishment
of the trusts is left to State
legislation the public at large will be
victimized as long as a single State will
furnish a robber's roost when the
spoils collected in other States can be
"Just now people are startled by the
principle of monopoly as it manifests
itself in the industrial trust, and well
may they be startled. The principle,
however, is the same as that which
manifests itself in the effort of the
national Dangers tnat secure a monopoly
of the issue of paper money.

note and its presence is a constant menace
to the banks of issue. , Some who
recognize the evils that flow from a
soap trust seem indifferent to the dangers
that attend the formation of a.paper

"The principle of monopoly not only
* lies at the foundation of the attempt to

night near the village of Aley, in

months ago Constable Melton of the
Aley precinct, was murdered and the
murderer escaped, ic is pajd, through
the assistance of the i^rapfcreys.
Thursday night a mob of T3 masked
men appeared at the Humphreys homestead
and called the father and two sons
out. They permitted them to see the
women of the family, whom they informed
in a spirit of charity that the
men were to be taken to Malakoff, a

It has not beeu so many years ago
since the lumbering old '"wood burners"
poured great clouds of smoke out
of their awkward looking, conical shapi
ed smoke stacks, as the "cars" dragged
along over South Carolina's primitive
railway lines. - The evolution of the
locomotive within the past decade has
been remarkable, but is merely an indication
of tHe growth of railroads
and the railroad business in the State.
In this day of consolidation, of develoDment.
of construction, the public I
is ready to forget that this new era has
not dawned in a day. The year 1899
has indeed begun auspiciously, and the
promise is that several hundred miles
of new railroads will be built in the
next few months.
However this is not a boom, a spurious
growth, but is founded upon slow
and substantial and steady development
duriBg the past decade. And
can any section of the union have more
to be proud of than the south, when it
is considered how compUte, how widespread

From the above it will be seen at a
glance that railroad systems had absorbed
a number of individual roads, but
the increase in the number of ifiiles inuse
was 707.9. The increase in the
length of side tracks was 123.71 miles.
The increase noted establishes the
fact that all through the time of financial
depression, South Carolina was
struggling to extend the railroad systems,
. which are prime factors and in
the opening of valuable territory and
in the marketing of splendid resources
otherwise inaccessible. But while new
lines were being built, the old were being
improved and now no more resemble
the primitive tracks of a few years
ago than the city thoroughfare resembles

The Talk in Georgia About a Pardon.

that he will not again consider the
Editor Constitution: Referring to A.
R. Fowler, the armless preacher, in
your issues of the 21st and 22d insts.,
he is referred to as a Methodist

the company locally, and wrote him the

made a transaction with G-. W. Poer
and myself. We paid him part cash
and gave him our note, without interest,
payable in four months. A few
days before this note became due, Fowler
visited our city on a Monday, after
having filled the Presbyterian pulpit in

a reasonable discount. "We did so.
After receiving the money, he went
through his pockets, and failing to find
said note, said: "Gentlemen, I find I
left your note at home with my wife. I
will give you a binding receipt against
the same, and immediately on my arrival
home will send it to you."
He being a preacher and Mason, we
at the time did not question his honesty.

Admitting the fact he is a nuisance

Punishing a Sham Suicide.
Miles Salisbury, a resident of Norwich,
Conn., had a tiff with his wife
and determined to play a practical joke
on her. Obtaining an ounce bottle of
carbolic acid he smeared a portion of
the poison upon his heavy growth of
whiskers, staggered into the room where
his employer was sitting, said he was
tired of life, had taken carbolic acid and
asked that his wife be informed. The

and .produced a cupful of mustard
and warm water. When Salisbury
saw the matter was being taken seriously
he weakened and declared it was all
a joke. This his employer refused tft
believe and aid was called, Salisbury
being held while the mixture was poured
' down his throat. Then the two doctors
arrived, and in-vain did the joker sputter,
kick and protest. Emetics were
forced down his throat while Salisbury
fought like a tiger. At list worn out
with his struggles and protestations he
succumbed, and the doctors thinking he
was sinking put a stomach pump down
his throat and worked it vigorously.
This caused the patient to nearly faint
away and he was given heroic treatment
to revive him. At last the doctors had
time to look into Salisbury'? mouth and
found he had no poison. The physicians
left in disgust, but it will require
some time to restore Salisbury to his
normal condition.
An Ovation to Gen. Wheeler.
Gen. Joe Wheeler was the most conspicuous
feature of the military parade
oi the Washington reace Jubilee. He
rode in one of the handsomest carriages
in Washington, and the horses drawing
the vehicle seemed to realize that the
occupant of the carriage was worthy of
their best efforts, for as they passed
the Presidential reviewing stand they
fairly danced with the music of the
band just ahead. The crowd all along
the route of the procession gave Gen.
Wheeler a continuous ovation,- and the
occupants of the President's stand, in- (
eluding the President, gave the gallant
little officer a great demonstration.
The General, not content with lifting
his hat and bowing to the Presidential
party, arose in his carriage and remained
standing until he had passed
the reviewing stand. This unusual
style of a military salute also caught
the crowd, and the enthusiasm continued
until he rolled out of sight. He was
attired in the regulation uniform of a
brigadier general in the United States
army, with side arms and sash. His

First a major exodus of students from the North East, then an attack on a Manipuri girl in a car and now an assault on an African national in Bangalore. Ironically in all these incidents, the victims have complained of being racially abused while being assaulted.
Wandoh Timothi, a 44-year-old techie from Bangalore, a native of Ivory Coast complained to the police that he was assaulted while riding his bike. "Racial slurs were hurled at me before I was beaten up," he said in a complaint to the police.
This incident has generated a lot of publicity considering it took place in the IT hub of India, considered to be one of India's most cosmopolitan cities.
Were all the incidents as mentioned above racial attacks? The answer is no.
In the case of assault on the Manipuri girl and Timothi, the police say are incidents of road rage.
In the case of the Manipuri girl, there was an altercation between her and some persons on the bike. This led to a heated argument and the assaulters abused her racially.
In Timothi's case too, a police officer associated with the probe told rediff.com, that there was an argument. Both parties were aggressive and abused each other. However, the locals assaulted Timothi and hurled racial abuses at him.
This latest incident has some of the African nationals worried. Even as they plan a protest, the police have assured them that the public in Bangalore are very tolerant, and don't believe in abusing people racially.
Security agencies in Bangalore say the exodus issue cannot be considered to be a case of racial abuse. It was a large design and the home ministry confirmed that these threats had emerged out of Pakistan as a result of which most of the North East residents left the city due to fear.

Now she calls me once a week or not at allVisitor's Question from a 21-30 year old Male
Is she seeing someone?
Well, here it is. Ive known this girl for about 11 months and weve been bf/gf for about 7 months until recently. I love her very much. From the beginning weve seen each other about 2-3 days a week. On occasions after a small fight, we didnt speak for about a week. This may have happened a couple of times, but 2 months ago she started being more and more apart than usual. Im talking about not calling me for 3-4 days at a time and I would only see her once a week and sometimes once every two weeks. I started getting worried and wanted to know what was going on. I sent her emails, called her house phone and left messages telling her that I loved her and that I wanted to know what was happening with our relationship. She would call back days later with nothing to say about the messages I had sent her. She would call me acting as if nothing was wrong.
One day she called me asking me to go out with her to a bar or to play some billiards. I thought this was a good opportunity for me to come forth and tell her what I was feeling. When we got to the place and was sitting in the car, I calmly started asking her where this relationship was going. I ask her if she only wanted to be my friend because obviously that was the attitude I was getting from her. I told her how much I missed her and loved her. During this time she walked out of the car and left me there. I followed her to a nearby restaurant where she was talking to someone that worked there. I was scared that she might have been telling this guy that I was harassing her, which was totally not the case, so I left. Since then, she has been acting like my friend. Now she calls me once a week or not at all.
I she cheating on me? Could it have been my fault? Should I move on with my life even though I think about her all the time? What should I do?
Your response will be greatly appreciated, thanks.
RomanceClass.com Advice
It sounds like it's time to cut the tie that binds you with her.
She clearly has little interest in you anymore. Her behavior in the car when she left you was extremely rude and inconsiderate.
Your best bet is to forget her! George

First of all there is STILL extreme unrest between our little circle of some 15-20 friends that get together almost every Friday or Saturday for hors de'ouvres and drinks then out to eat at a restaurant that the hostess selects and makes reservations for...or a dine in where the hostess cooks the main dish and everyone is assigned side dishes.
I usually look forward to this weekly event and the hubs and I have participated in this ritual for over 20 years, pretty much the same circle of core friends with a few add ons and drop offs from time to time.
Every since the election there has been unrest...much reflected in the same way that the country over all has reflected.
Our best friends bought a little lake cabin back in Iowa (our home state) a few years ago and they go back there to spend the entire summer. Our group has carried on the get togethers with the people that are still here, even as we all seem to come and go during the summer.
Usually about 10-12 of us manage to meet each week, or every other week. But this year especially has had some rocky rumblings and it's always about politics. About half of us are Republicans and about half us are Democrats. I've written a blog or two about some of the blow ups that in spite of my insistence NOT to talk about...always seemed to bleed into the dinner conversation. Most of us are self employed, or were...one of us is a Criminal Lawyer (still in practice) and several still work in management or mid management positions.
Soooo you are bound to have strong opinions from strong personalities flying around from every angle.
I really thought that after the election things would settle down. They have not. Especially from our friends that have returned back to FL from Iowa (Demo) and one particular other wife (Rep) of the lawyer. There have been several spates YET AGAIN...over...
politics which is has been voted on (democratic process...right?) and shelved as verboten subject.
Me...being the sensible one usually manages to stay across the room and out of the line of fire...BUT...it still ruins the evening when these negative vibes are being hurled about.
Last Saturday we were having a lovely dinner at one of our friend's houses and AGAIN these two ladies got into it. This time it wasn't about politics but about property insurance. The lawyer's wife made a back handed remark about how she was SICK of paying more for her premium to cover homeowners who went into the state appointed property insurance program that wouldn't be able to otherwise secure insurance. She happened to be outnumbered because on the other side of her sat a high powered property insurance executive that told her in no uncertain terms this was the way things were and just because SHE didn't like it didn't mean that the world
was going to change on her accord.
Again...I was sitting wayyyy down the table from these rabble-rousers so I didn't get into the jest of the argument..but it ended with the wife of the lawyer, getting up and walking out. She took her marbles and went home!
She DID not thank the hostess for the lovely meal, she did not say good bye or even make some as semblance of an excuse for leaving to her fellow dinner mates...just huffed out.
No manners, no courtesy...just spoiled childish behavior.
I see this being played out on a larger scale in Washington D.C. It's just a travesty for democracy and a sad sad day for the crinks that it has put into our lovely circle of friends that just can't let go of their bigotry, their prejudices, or their sore loser tactics.
If this keeps up...she might find herself on the outside of a group of friends that she has enjoyed for over 20+ years. I want to just shake the stuffing out of her and yell WAKE UP and SMELL the coffee!
Instead...it makes me jumpy and wondering if some explosions are going to happen during my Annual Girls Christmas Craft party scheduled for December 12, 2012.
One bad vibe from someone who can't face reality is a real 'buzz kill' for the entire group..we aren't having it!
In the meantime this general uneasiness amongst the group has left me feeling agitated. I've been the lone gal at the consignment gallery because the hubs is out working a construction project that he committed to last summer.
The gallery has been dismally slow this week. Two days with zero sales. When this happens I get so bored...I keep thinking of the ninety million projects I have at home and SHOULD be doing rather than just sitting in an empty gallery cooling my heels.
Ugghhhh retail life is the ultimate test on patience. I have none...between these recent group rumblings and the scarcity of sales I find that the moment I get home I want to go into 'munch' mode. Last night I had an enormous bowl of popcorn and added nuts to it to boot. BAD choices for BAD state of mind. Boredom and general uneasiness send me spiraling.
Of course it could have been a WHOLE lot worse...thank goodness I threw out the left over pecan and pumpkin pie with cool whip days before!
One small victory for woman~kind!
I am still using my fitbit every day and doing well with it. I'm logging and tracking food and drinking gallons of water...hopefully things will settle down with this group..OR...a public stoning may occur...stay tuned...it's NEVER dull in Bobbi~s~ville!
On a side note...one direct conversation I had with this before negative but now EXTREMELY negative friend was that she was just going to take her money and leave the country...I very kindly offered to help her pack...it's really THAT bad!

I am so sorry you are having to go through this, and learn the lesson of how to tell someone, NO! In this case, STOP! The vibs are going to be intense unless all of you come to a true understanding! You are right, it is going on all over the world! As little groups, we can't even keep our own happy vibes together, NO WONDER there are wars going on all the time! NOT just the actual wars, but with in companies, families, nations, etc. etc. "Seeing" everyone in peace & joy, can be quite difficult, but NOT impossible! I will send peace vibes to your group, (can't hurt!) Sometimes it is easier to help when one is not so emotionally involved! As the song goes..... Bibbity Bobbity Boo!

Sounds like you've got some good solutions here.
TV used to be calm and matter of fact, i.e. Walter Cronkite. But now, the pundits whip up emotion, I even saw one being interviewed once, and she demonstrated how she would like to deliver her info ( normal, calm and polite), and the way she had to: agitated and outraged. The agitated and outraged seems to boost ratings.
I think that "adults" are mirroring the emotional tenor. And it's often on both sides of the political spectrum.
And maybe this poor lady has something else unresolved going on in her life. and politics is a way to vent her anxiety.
So the challenge for those of us who believe that we're aware is to move through all this with grace and dignity. I do not like conflict, either: don't feel that it is sport to end up with voices raised, so can understand your distress. Who in the group has a lot of gravitas? Maybe that person can step in as needed.
And on the boredom sitting in the shop problem, is there anything that you can do to fill the time? Knitting, reading?
Bless you.

When people think they are right, they become unreasonable and place the blame on the other person. If you already offered to help her pack, do you have to invite her to your party?

Wowza. I hear you when you talk about the negative vibes, that's the hardest part for me. I can accept that I have friends that have very different political views, but when I listen, I realize they care about this country as deeply as I do and that much of the negative vibe comes from fear. I figure it's not the first time the world has lived with uncertainty and it won't be the last. I agree that this all mirrors what is going on in Washington and wonder...if I can't work this out with my friends, how will the politicians ever work it out?

Well not being American I didn't vote but of course hear more than enough about your elections via tv, paper etc. One person that I know from spark that has gone to FB more than spark has become very verbal about the election and still is going on about it, I don't care what your affilation is, but I don't see a need to bash anyone, I more or less said that figured once the election was over the Obama bashing would stop, that if you want to change something do it in a sensible way that just maybe will make a diff. Anyway I just unfriended her as can't be bothered. So can see totally where you are coming from geesh.

After living in the DC Metro area all my life, I welcomed my move to Florida with open arms 4 years ago. I have found that most are clueless about the "running" of our government. They get their expert info from the media! NOT! I don't even listen to the "polibabble" any more and walk away from it. Politics and religion are always standard taboo topics at a gathering...especially when there's a possibility of good wine being wasted!

My retail shop didn't make it, sadly(too tiny of a town) but I remember those long, boring no customer days.
As for the political craziness etc-I'm married to one of those people that knows everything and your stupid if you disagree. I try not to take him out in public.
My friends are also on very opposite sides. One accused my republican friends of being racist simply for not voting democrat. My republican friends are equally vile when it comes to politics. I refuse to discuss politics with any of them but am appaulled by their continued nastiness. I, too, hoped it would settle after the election.
My extended family are on different sides of many issues and can discuss their opinions using actual information(as long as my husband isn't involved) and it can be interesting and imformative. But they are nasty about it and they don't insist that everyone agree with them.

What a difficult and awkward situation. I guess there are a few suggestions that I have seen or used myself:
1. Include in the invitation: This party is for all our friends of all political persuasions. Most conversation is expected to be general, inclusive and social! (Movies! books! vacation plans! kids! etc). If you can respectfully discuss political issues with people who don't agree with you, great. If not, either don't discuss politics, or have your own party with friends who think alike.
2. Host steps in to intervene when the discussion gets heated, and tells the arguers that they are making others uncomfortable and they need to change the topic. (I actually have had great success with our group's most notorious political extreme arguer by firmly changing the subject)
3. Host appoints a moderator to control the discussion and/or break up arguments (my book club does this regularly and routinely.)
4. Don't invite the arguing gadflies. See them separately if you still want to be friends with them.

That is a shame about your group of friends coming unglued over politics. There are always those people that cannot stand any views in life but their own. And those people do not make good friends eventually. Sounds like your little group is about to go through some culling out of the sour grapes people and will be better for it.

On MONDAY, AUGUST 10 (7:00-9:30 p.m., ET/PT), Disney XD presents a high-flying evening on boards and bikes, including a new "Zeke and Luther" episode in which the skateboarding buddies finally go "pro," and a half-hour "Next X" reality series special, hosted by professional BMX athletes Scotty Cranmer and Van Homan, that follows five amateur action sports athletes age 9-12 to the big-time at X Games 15. It will be available on DisneyXD.com immediately following the TV premiere. Also on Monday, August 10, the "Zeke and Luther" inspired "Zeke and Luther Dude Feud" debuts as a 15-webisode series at DisneyXD.com.
The 15-webisode series "Zeke and Luther Dude Feud" stars Hutch Dano, Adam Hicks and Nate Hartley as Zeke, Luther and Ozzie, the characters they play in the comedy series "Zeke and Luther" on Disney XD. In the comedic webisodes, Zeke and Luther engage in a series of unusual competitions, each refereed by Ozzie.
Action sports stars, including BMX professional Jeremiah Smith, light up the "Next X" special as five reality action sports athletes, aged 9-12, get the VIP treatment at X Games 15, and the boy named The Next X, 12-year-old Ian Bradley from New Hampshire, gets the opportunity to showcase his BMX moves at the marquee action sports event.
The "Next X" special is a culmination of the eight-part reality series for kids that followed five of the world's top professional BMX and skateboarding athletes (skateboarder Chris Cole, BMX freestyle rider Scotty Cranmer, BMX street rider Van Homan, skateboarder Billy Marks and skateboarder Lincoln Ueda) as they mentored young amateurs in their chosen sport, inspiring them to become better athletes. In addition to Ian Bradley, the amateur athletes are: Mitchie Brusco, a 12-year-old vert skateboarder from Washington; Matty Cranmer, a 12-year-old freestyle BMX rider from New Jersey; Tom Schaar, a 9-year-old bowl and vert skateboarder from California, and Micah Wu, an 11-year-old mini ramp and bowl skateboarder from Kentucky.
"Next X" is executive-produced by Douglas Ross, Greg Stewart and Kathleen French. It is a production of Evolution Media ("Big Brother," "The Real Housewives of Orange County," "Clean Sweep," Disney Channel's "Bug Juice").

India State of Forest Report 2011
India's State of Forest Report 2011 released by FSI provides special coverage to forest cover in hill districts, tribal districts and the north-east and also includes a new chapter covering detailed assessment of bamboo.
The Forest Survey of India (FSI) has been publishing a series of biennial assessment report the forest cover in the country since 1987. The India State of Forest Report is recognized as the authoritative assessment of the country's forest resources. The India State of Forest Report 2011 is the twelfth report in the series. It is based on interpretation of satellite data recorded during October 2008-March 2009 from the indigenous IRS-P6-LISS III sensor on a resolution of 23.5m with a minimum mappable area of one hectare. The assessment made on the basis of satellite imageries is backed by rigorous ground truthing carried out by the staff of FSI. The change matrices recorded in the present report refer to changes with respect to the satellite data recorded for the previous India State of Forest Report two years earlier. Special coverage is provided to forest cover in hill districts, tribal districts and the north-east keeping in mind the special symbiotic relationship of communities with forests in these regions.

Computational and Spectral Investigation of 5,12-Dihydro-5,12-ethanonaphthacene-13-carbaldehyde
AbstractA conformational search of 5,12-dihydro-5,12-ethanonaphthacene-13-carbaldehyde predicted the presence of twelve conformations. The geometry of the twelve conformations established at the B3LYP/6-31G* level showed only six unique ones. Vibrational frequencies were calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. The calculated vibrational frequencies enabled us to interpret the appearance of two bands corresponding to the C=O stretching mode of 5,12-dihydro-5,12-ethanonaphthacene-13-carbaldehyde. The first band corresponded to the 5,12-dihydro-5,12-ethanonaphthacene-13-carbaldehyde structure where the aldehyde group O atom was above the benzene or naphthalene ring. The other band was due to the O atom of the aldehyde group pointing out of the benzene or naphthalene ring.

How to Ask a Guy Out
We often have visitors write in with solutions to each others' problems. Here is a visitor's solution to one of our visitor's questions.
Original Visitor's Question from a 13-20 year old Female
How to ask a guy out on a date without risking total humiliation?
User Submitted Advice from a 13-20 year old Female
Ask him out
Depends what kind of guy your asking. Some guys are shy and would be happy to hear that you want to go out with them. Others who think they are "all that" will try to make it feel as if it's the most humilitating thing on Earth.
I think that everyone has felt the same way you have. I would ask the guy out and if he rejects you..move on!! I know it's really tough but you have to try or you'll regret it for the rest of your life. If your going to try to ask him out, do it when he is alone and not when he is with his friends.

Hi Ivan, Anyone can debate any technical issue on www-forms, and the working group takes it pretty seriously. That does not mean we will agree with everything a person asks for, and we sometimes have to take a pass on great ideas for the current release, but we do take it seriously. As for actual voting, you have to become a member of the W3C and have your AC rep nominate you to join the Forms WG. Of coruse, this is not something one does just to get a vote, as it is a commitment to remain a member in good standing (i.e. one that can vote). Joining includes the obligation to attend weekly telecons, travel to 4 face to face meetings, and both take on and complete action items in a timely fashion. Cheers, John M.

Join the NPT for a living history tour
Published 1:04 pm, Friday, October 5, 2012
This year's "Hamlet Hopping" tour will take you to the 19th-century rural hamlets embedded in our current neighborhoods of Brookside, Broad River, Cranbury and West Norwalk. Join the Norwalk Preservation Trust on Sunday, Oct. 14 from 1 to 5 p.m. on a bus tour to visit the chapels, schools and stores that defined these early communities -- some remarkably intact and some quite visibly changed.
A reception with refreshments will follow the "Hamlet Hop" and awards will be presented to the individuals and organizations that have preserved and maintained these important elements of Norwalk's history. The receptions will be at the Cranbury Chapel, the last stop.
Brookside, Broad River, Cranbury and West Norwalk were once much more remote than they are today. The farmers, homesteaders and mill owners were miles away from the center of Norwalk. Getting to church, schools or shops required bone-rattling travel in carts over roads that were little more than wagon ruts.
As these communities grew and prospered, the residents began to yearn for a place to worship in their own community -- one where they would not be considered "outlivers" as they were in the Norwalk and Darien parishes. Starting in the early 1800s, these communities began to establish themselves as separate "hamlets" within Norwalk. They began to organize as citizens of that community and created community centers that included a chapel that also served as a meeting house, a small school for local children and a store to provide basic provisions.
More InformationFact box
The tour will take participants to all four hamlets with a stop in each to visit one of the buildings -- the chapel, the schoolhouse or the store. Architectural historians, current owners and reenactors will provide insight into the history of the buildings and the area and address how the buildings have been changed and modified over the years. We now know these as Norwalk's neighborhoods but the roots of our neighborhoods stretch back to the earliest residents who gathered together as a community to create the buildings that provided a service to the community and served to give the area its unique identity.
The cost is $60. Register online at http://norwalkpreservation.org/.

At Rubadub we regularly monitor our prices to ensure we're competitive. We know how important your hard-earned cash is and will always strive to provide you with as good (if not better) a deal as anyone else. However... it's also worth saying that in the bigger picture we consider other factors to be just as important as price in the service we offer our customers. As we always say, we're good guys to deal with and that's worth something more than money.
If the price you've seen is on a European website (or one that appears to be from the UK but is actually German or Dutch), please also note that many such sites will charge you in Euros and the £GBP prices shown are, at best, a rough guide. Often the credit card currency exchange fees are not included in the prices, and as such the actual £GBP price you pay is often 3-4% more than the price they show.
They are also supplying you with non-UK stock so it will have European power plugs (costing you more cash to replace the power supply) and will generally have to go back to Germany or Holland if you are unhappy with it or something goes wrong with it.
When you buy from Rubadub you get:
So it's worth considering that even against a crazy price elsewhere, we may be offering the best deal for you overall.

Regarding the forward split, currently held stock certificates and new stock certificates to be issued will represent each shareholder's total post-forward split shareholdings. For shareholders who held their shares in an account with a stock broker, their account was automatically updated.

Pizza, fries and quality time with Zach Efron: that was all the most winningest gymnast craved after clinching her fourth Olympic gold medal on Tuesday. In a post-performance interview, she teased Olympic partner-in-crime Aly Raisman for wanting to nap instead. If Michael Phelps was the Olympics' king, this year Simone Biles proved to be its queen, toting four gold medals and a single bronze back to the States. But as she dazzlingly vaulted, tumbled and body rolled her way into Olympic stardom, another Final Five teammate's sparkle flickered. Continue reading
All That Glitters. . .20 Aug
Returning Roger Enrico's Investment5 Jun
On Thursday morning, I received a tough text from my favorite high school teacher: Roger Enrico, the man who had put me and countless others through college, had died. The timing was uncanny. He was scheduled to have breakfast with me and about eight fellow Enrico scholarship recipients in Dallas on tomorrow, Monday morning. I poured over the articles in "The New York Times", "Adweek" and "Wall Street Journal." They all praised his legendary career and philanthropy. But that only scratched the surface. Continue reading
Zoe: Blue, Green and Regular Black1 Apr
Last night, my guy and I watched "Drumline". We laughed as quotes about "hot butter biscuits" and "one band one sound" slid off our tongues and marveled over the young Nick Cannon and Zoe Saldana in the 13-year-old film.
"She hasn't aged a bit," he awed. It's true. The love interest with the faint accent and hint of spice looked exactly the same. Same slender dancer frame, same big doe-like eyes, same slightly jutted chin. In hindsight, one can say that chin alone signaled her refusal to let her role in "Drumline" be her hit, her determination not to be relegated to the cinematic cemetery so many promising "Blacktresses" get buried alive in.
Who knew the fresh-faced dancer would one day defy color and culture to reach audiences far beyond even Cannon's grasp? Continue reading
Newton's Laws of Football7 Feb
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." Perhaps the best example of the law will be on display tonight in Cali. Every yard, tackle, fumble, interception, Omaha and dab will trigger a corresponding series of events towards the final score. Talk about pressure. Continue reading
Digesting the Daniel Fast17 Jan
I cheated. Yep. I'll admit it. Monday, Jan. 4 was the first of a 21-day fast limiting my diet to only things that come from the ground. No meat. No dairy. Nothing "pleasurable." That first day, after ordering a very sad chopped salad from Subway, I raced home and grabbed a handful of cookies. Continue reading
After Midnight3 Jan
Change doesn't normally happen all at once. The stroke of midnight that marked 2016 didn't magically change anyone's carriage to pumpkin or heels to glass slippers. Change happens one decision, thought, word and action at a time. I'm excited to see what the woman in the mirror looks like this time next year. Continue reading
Return of the DART Queen18 Nov
For the first time in a year, I rode the train last night. Clad in a short sweater dress, knee high boots and thigh high fishnet stockings, I should have known better. As soon as I crossed the platform to nab a ticket, a man approached. Hs words I don't recall: I just remember the sense of my personal space being invaded. I summoned my toughest sass and asked him to back up. He complied and began to ramble about how he wanted to know my name so he could tattoo it on his neck. Continue reading

Pathfinder Minerals Wins Lawsuit Over Mozambique Subsidiary
Pathfinder Minerals Plc (PFP) won a London court ruling in a dispute with a former African partner over ownership of its Mozambique mining business.
Pathfinder had legally acquired the shares in the Mozambique subsidiary from its local partners, Judge Richard Field said in a ruling today. He also agreed to block the former partner from interfering with the subsidiary.
Pathfinder is embroiled in a legal battle with General Jacinto Soares Veloso, a former director at the company, in the U.K. and Mozambique over the subsidiary, which has mining rights in the southeast African country.
"I very much hope that the courts and government of Mozambique will now acknowledge the wrongs which have been committed and facilitate the resumption of project development without any further delay," Pathfinder Chief Executive Officer Nick Trew said in an e-mailed statement.
Pathfinder broke Mozambique law by going to British courts, Veloso said in a statement from his spokesman, Damien McCrystal.
Veloso and his group "are confident that while it is likely to take several years for this case to be finally resolved, they will be successful in defending their rights of ownership under Mozambique law," according to the statement.
A Pathfinder unit won two 25-year mining concessions on 32,000 hectares of land along Mozambique's coast. The area contains heavy minerals including ilmenite, rutile and zircon, the company has said.
Pathfinder asked that its shares be suspended from trading on London's Alternative Investment Market today until the judge ruled, it said in a statement this morning. The shares have resumed trading, according to the company.
