Consumer Complaints and Reviews
Fed up with these cheaters. I booked a flight for MUMBAI to GOA, I cancelled that and booked for some other date. At the time of booking they said I will get back my refund (TOTAL) within 3 business days. It's been more than 15 days still I haven't get any refund. After calling multiple times they say that "your complaint is in open status, our team will get back to you", which won't come. I will never book a ticket from MMT again. These kind of idiots should be punished strongly.
MakeMyTrip customer service and rewards program - I had got a free night as I had booked 4 nights with them. However, for reasons beyond my control, I missed redeeming it (they didn't send me any sms reminding me either) and when I realized it and called them day after the expiry, they refused to help and when I escalated it to the supervisor, they kept the call on hold for fifteen minutes and then dropped the call. Pathetic way to treat a customer who must have made at least fifty bookings in the past decade. They will now be a last option for me.
I have cancelled my flight booking in the previous month itself. They have not refunded entire amount and whenever contacted do not clarify on reasons for not refunding the amount. Although they have sent me an invoice for cancellation refund but paid back into my bank account very less amount. Very ridiculous & disorganized service.
MakeMyTrip is the worst website for booking Holiday packages. I booked my Holiday package to Udaipur and specifically asked for hotel Jagat Niwas. Initially they said its ok and asked me to make the payment. Once the payment was made they changed my hotel details and I get to know about it when I arrived at Udaipur. We were told by our taxi driver that they have booked us into Fern hotel. When I spoke to their customer care, they started blaming me that I agreed on this hotel. I asked them to check their recordings but they kept on denying it. Finally after my trip and around 50 calls later, when they went through their recordings they admitted that I was right. When I asked for compensation nothing was offered to me. I strongly recommend people coming from foreign countries to not go through Makemytrip, as they will rob you in every possible way. They are quite expensive and their customer service is very pathetic.
I am a frequent MakeMyTrip customer who until today enjoyed doing business with this agency. This was by far the worst experience I had and am absolutely disgusted with the way they treated me. I had purchased my destination ticket from Jaipur to Lucknow with the airlines, Air India. But I wanted to cancel this purchase since I had found a better offer with Jet Airways. So regarding this matter I first called the MakeMyTrip customer service line. They had told me that I would have to pay a cancellation fee of 340 rupees. What I didn't understand was that why I had to pay a single rupee when it hadn't even been an hour since I purchased my ticket and MakeMyTrip guaranteed a 24 hour free cancellation service.
After arguing and the service being total **, they sent me to talk to Air India to see what they could do. But their service was worse. They said I would have to pay 2400 rupees if I wanted to cancel my ticket. This has gotten me more furious than I already was because it made no sense! I had literally made my ticket a few minutes ago! So what happened to the 24 hour guarantee I was promised? In the end both agencies said they would do nothing about my issue and put no effort whatsoever in satisfying my needs leaving me to write this review. So I just wanted to let ALL of you know that MakeMyTrip is a total scam and does not know how to deal with their customers. Never again will I even bother doing business with them.

MakeMyTrip completely ruined my holidays at Singapore. I booked a package with MakeMyTrip. Just 10 hours before my travel I received a call from an customer service agent of the above company and he informed me that the hotel room which I booked in Singapore was unavailable and I was provided with another hotel and they assured it was a 3 star hotel.
I traveled with my wife and 3 year old daughter. I was shocked to see the hotel when I arrived there and the Asian men who were around there in the hotel were looking at my wife like they have not seen any women in their life. Hope you have guessed the area now. Yes it was Thekka. Very nasty room and we had breakfast and went out. The hotel they initially booked were nearby and I decided to pop in and inquired about the vacancy. The receptionist informed me that the rooms were available. I was very much annoyed after hearing this. Had the travel agent come before me I would have spit on his face and slapped him. This is the way this travel company is operating. So be VERY VERY careful.
Recently booked a trip from Mumbai to Kerala and was dissatisfied with the service. Was told - if I need to make a complaint, I should email and someone would get back to me. Sent few emails now - no one has called.
MakeMyTrip is the worst travel agency which I ever faced. Guys try not to book any hotel through MakeMyTrip. I had a worst experience with MakeMyTrip. I had booked a hotel room from 04.01.2017 to 06.01.2017 at hotel New Vasantashram (near CST station) on urgency basis just before arriving CST station at around 10:05 PM from MakeMyTrip for my stay near station through mobile app and train onboard. The booking was done and I received confirmation message from MakeMyTrip. Also it is mentioned in SMS that I had to show this SMS at hotel. But the hotel person denied the booking saying two things: (1) Our room rent not that as booked at MakeMyTrip, and (2) I had to show printout booking copy for confirmation (mention: nobody carrying printer on train), also said that they didn't have my booking intimation from MakeMyTrip. All booking amount I lose.
I agree with all the reviews before mine, and I wish I had read them before trusting Makemytrip. I had a similar problem with the site. I had booked a ticket from MMT on a Spicejet flight from Calcutta to Guwahati on 21 Dec 2016, and the flight timing was preponed by 5 hours (when I booked flight was supposed to leave at 6:20 PM, it was preponed to 1:20 PM). SpiceJet informed MMT about this changed time, and MMT failed to inform me at all: no email, no phone calls, no message, nothing. The ticket I printed from the site before boarding my flight had the incorrect flight time.
As a result, when I showed up to the airport 3 hours before what I expected was my actual flight time, I was told that I had missed my flight. Spicejet informed me, and gave me proof, that they had told MMT of this change, and MMT had simply failed to inform me or update the information on its so-called automated ticketing system.
I called up MMT and explained to them that I really needed to reach Guwahati to attend my friend's wedding, which I was about to miss entirely due to their error. They told me to book the earliest available flight and that they would reimburse me after investigating my case. I booked the earliest flight in consultation with MMT, and also asked them to reimburse me for one night's stay in Calcutta, for I had no place to stay, and they agreed. All of this ended up costing me nearly Rs 27K.
Since then I've called and emailed MMT several times and all of my pleas for help have fallen on deaf ears. I've been put on long 50 mins, 70 mins hold several times, and then my calls have been abruptly cut. Later I've been told that my case has been closed because they "could not reach the customer" (patently untrue--they haven't called or emailed me once), and still later, I was told that my case simply didn't exist! This is a company of liars and deceivers and I urge everyone reading this to not trust MMT for your bookings. Book directly with the airlines, as they will keep you abreast of any change, unlike MMT, which can totally ruin all of your travel plans and add onerously to your expenses.
MakeMyTrip is the worst travel agency which I ever HAD. Guys never ever book any Tour Package or any hotel through MakeMyTrip. I had a worst experience with MakeMyTrip. I had booked a hotel room from 28th Dec 2016 to 1st Jan 2016 (Greenwood Meadows) from MakeMyTrip for my goa trip. The booking was done in the month of September and the same day I received confirmation voucher twice from MakeMyTrip. 5 days ago my journey, I reconfirmed the same with MakeMyTrip to check whether my booking is confirmed or not and one of their customer support person informed me that "your booking is confirmed and you don't need to worry about that."
But then when me and my husband reached goa on 28th Dec and went to the hotel for our check-in, for our surprise the person at the reception said "there is no booking from MakeMyTrip in your name." We were shocked. How could this be possible cause we have a confirmation voucher from MakeMyTrip and we even confirmed over the call with customer support.
We called MakeMyTrip to confirm about the same and they said "your booking got bounced", but how the ** we will come to know whether the booking is bounced or not until we received any notification from MakeMyTrip nor we have received any call from MakeMyTrip indicating that booking was not confirmed. Out of frustration we shouted at them and said that we will take a legal action against them and their response was like "do whatever you want". After threatening them, they said "we will manage some other resort for you" and we had to wait for 2 hours till all these things got sorted. Our entire day got wasted. Such a bad customer service. Guys, whoever read this review, it is a indication for them not to go for MakeMyTrip.
I booked two rooms from makemytrip.com in www.veronicaguesthousegoa.com hotels. They gave the rooms to someone else and threaten us to leave the hotel. We called MakeMyTrip guys but they didn't take any action.
MakeMyTrip budget hotel domestic tie-up is done without any due diligence. I booked my Gujarat Trip through Aman ** and hotel in Somnath with name Madhuram was terrible. It had fungus on walls and bathroom. Also hotel in Dwarka called Sea View was very unclean and unhygienic. I want MakeMyTrip to do proper survey before tying up with hotels and give me my money back for Madhuram as checked out because of unhygienic condition. My booking ID with MakeMyTrip is **.
I logged on MakeMyTrip.com website with my user login and password on 27th Dec to book 4 tickets from Chennai to Madurai. After selecting the flight and paying the money through NetBanking, the error message from MakeMyTrip website said that the transaction and booking could not be done due to internal errors (or something to that sort as I don't remember the exact words) AND it also said that they will credit 100Rs in my wallet to compensate my problems with the booking and that I can use that amount for future booking. As I had to book urgently as the fare was already double of what I paid last time, I made the booking thru Yatra.com with no hitches or delays.
Today (30th Dec) when I looked at my bank statement online, I found the amount is debited by MakeMyTrip and by Yatra!! I called MakeMyTrip and they kept telling me that the booking was confirmed! I have to explain in detail that the webpage clearly mentioned booking cannot be completed and even gifted me Rs.100. After very long talk, the guy told me that they will check and call me after one day. I am worried that they will keep telling me the same that the booking was done properly and payment amount will be returned as is usual the case when we cancel flights, though in my case, the booking website was not functional.
Is there a way to prove that such message appeared on my PC about booking not being done and Rs.100 credited to my wallet as a compensation etc.?? If I can retrieve these pages, I can file a case against MakeMyTrip causing me inconvenience and time loss haggling with them etc. I strongly recommend not to believe in their websites messages and CHECK if they charged you even though the website they could not complete the booking.
Make My Trip has completely ruined our Dubai Trip Experience. And thanks for that. Below are the issues which were faced by us from the date of booking. We had done Dubai Trip booking on 7th of December for 4 Nights 5 Days (21st Dec - 25th Dec) through MakeMyTrip. We made full payment for trip by 8th December. In spite of making full payment they did not give us air tickets and travel vouchers till the last day. Only after continuous hours of calling at their customer care and sending emails to their executives we received e-tickets on 20th December one day before travel date.
Going through tickets I found that they had made spelling mistake in passenger name while booking flight tickets (I had provided passport copy at time of booking). I had to again call executives and run after them to get it rectified. If this was not enough, We again got taste of MakeMyTrip service in Dubai also. 23rd December was booked for Desert Safari. And below things followed:
There was delay in pick-up by 1 1/2 hours. Schedule pick-up time was 2:00 PM and pick-up was done at 3:30 PM. No message was passed that there would be delay in pickup. And we kept waiting for car at hotel reception. Travel Agent would say car will be there in 5 min and hang up. Our car was shared with other passengers at time of pick-up and drop. When it was a private transfer. At Desert Safari gate we were again made to wait for another one hour for 2nd car to come and take us inside. Due to late pick-up we did not get even 5 minutes of Dune Bashing and also missed sunset. We were again made to wait for 1 hour at Desert Safari gates for drop at hotel. Next day again we were made to wait 1 1/2 at reception for car to come and take us to Miracle Garden.
This is the kind of service MakeMyTrip people provides to senior citizens. And on top of that MakeMyTrip (Senior Executive - Service Delivery) was more worried about his Travel Agent getting upset. As I was calling Travel Agent continuously. He blindly believes on statement given by Travel Agent and says nothing like this happened. It seems for (Senior Executive - Service Delivery) his Travel Agents are everything. If you are from middle class family and can't afford Dubai trip every year, I would suggest you don't go with MakeMyTrip. Thanks MMT for spoiling our once in a life trip.
This was my first and worst experience with MakeMyTrip. I made a mistake, will never go to this company for any booking. Their pre-sales support is very good, they will promise many things, they will always ask you to make your payment, once you make your payment no one will reply you at all. My suggestion is not to go with MakeMyTrip.
I wanted to book my Travel package (flight, transfers and tours) from Bangalore to Bangkok, Phuket and Krabi. Initially the customer service for very good, they sent all the details on time and once I paid my full amount. They did my flight reservation immediately, However they did not do my transfers and tours booking. They kept saying that I will get the details only 2 days before my travel. We were supposed to join another family traveling outside India, they needed to know our details so that we can plan our trip accordingly.
However MakeMyTrip did not give any confirmation on other bookings despite making the payment in full. This cause a lot of difficulty in our tour planning. The travel agents do understand these issues, every time there is new person, and then the agent who helped earlier is not available, not sure if it is true or they are lying. It is really it a very bad customer experience.
From Mumbai to Chandigarh. Flight no :- 6e-996. We are very unsatisfied from your services and we have never expected this worst service from your side. We request you kindly refund as soon as possible as we are facing the worst harassment from your side. As we have to arrange for another flight at the last legs. And we have to pay huge fair. And you even did not informed us of cancellation. If refund is not made then we will move to Consumer Forums. Being an unsatisfied consumer.
I have booked my Andaman Trip with MMT. The person who took my booking was Mr. **. While taking booking for 7th January 2017, he said that there is only one room on that day and hence go for one room. I am travelling with my 13 yrs and 8 yrs son and daughter respectively. While taking booking he said that we will give you one king size bed and one extra bed for your son. I went ahead with booking. As soon as payment was made, he started making excuse and saying that next day I will send the confirmation on king size bed.
It's been now one and half month, Mr. ** is still making excuse and does not pick up my call. When I called up from unknown no., we had heated argument and now he says, "Get your booking cancelled and we will debit as per cancellation policy." So it means it is all blackmailing and fooling customer. I shall update you in due course of time, what and how do they treat customer and what action they take on such employee who fools customer.
I have very bad experience with MakeMyTrip. They are not support the customer when customer actually need their help. My package include 1) two way flight booking from Chandigarh to Mumbai; 2)Sightseeing of Manali, Shimla and Chandigarh; 3) Hotel booking of Manali, Shimla and Chandigarh. My complaint is when I reached Chandigarh at Golden Plaza Hotel, my driver Sunil and his boss Baldeep ask for excess payment of Rs. 1500 for Chandigarh sightseeing. If I don't make the payment he refused for sightseeing.
Actually I told them my package include everything. I shown my mail but still they refused for sightseeing. Even I also called MakeMyTrip guy Mr Punit ** who booked my package but he was not helping me. He cut my call and ignoring my call. I did call to customer care. They were asking mail. How do I mail while travelling? I was really helpless. I was also a cash crunch. Cash was not available at ATM. When new booking package time they were calling me again and again and when actually we need help while travelling they didn't ask or help.
I am not worried you haven't solved my issue and I have lost my money with MakeMyTrip. Buy undergarment for your wife from my 50k money. She'll enjoy all life. I am worried your ** customer care services also. Every time a new person received call and you have to repeat all details again and again and all customer care person has different answers. You are making fool to people.
I checked Air India site only to find out my reservations were canceled. When I called AI they could not help me. I could not get through anyone at Make My Trip. When I did, two people hung up the phone because I could only deal with person who I worked with (Ankit). Make My Trip had obligation to notify me. My flights were fully paid 9 months in advance. This is the worst, the worst company on the face of online travel sites. Please avoid working/using this website at all cost. I need someone to guide me on how to sue this business.
MakeMyTrip is the worst travel agency which I ever HAD. Guys never ever book any Tour Package through MakeMyTrip. I had a worst experience with MakeMyTrip. I had a plan to visit Europe on December 4th with my friend. When I searched the details in Google, MakeMyTrip was the first option I found, and I send a query to them. Next day I received a call from a MakeMyTrip staff (Sudha ** | Holiday Expert, Mobile: **) and she send me the package details. Total cost for the trip was INR 1,88,000 and I paid the initial amount of 94000 Rs and send the passport photo copy as well. Holiday expert told me I will get a call from visa process team in few hours. I didn't receive any call from them for next 2 days.
So I tried to reach them again and I got an update that my co-traveler's passport has an observation page so there may be a chance of visa rejection and she said if you're confident you can apply for the visa. There won't be any issue. So I thought of process the visa. As per Policy if observation page is there in Passport you cannot apply Schengen visa. It will get reject. But MakeMyTrip staff was not aware about that policy. After 2 days she called me back and said "we cannot process this because the Visa will get reject."
SO I thought of update the visa first before the trip and I postponed my trip. But MakeMyTrip staff forced me to take the trip for January 14th and they offered the trip for same amount. After 2 days they called me back and said there is a slight change in total cost and it was 2,16.000 (Almost 28000 Extra). I didn't feel that it's a slight change, so I asked 1 day time to plan my trip as the support and response from MakeMyTrip was poor. Next day I send a mail to them for refund the amount. They said there won't be any deduction as the trip was not finalized. After 2 days I got a mail from MakeMyTrip... I was shocked!!! They deducted 41,996 Rs as penalty.
When I called MakeMyTrip staff for inquiry and they denied whatever they said to me. I lost my cash and vacation only because of MakeMyTrip team unprofessional approach. I am planning to sue a legal case against them. I wasted my hour just arguing with them. They said "do whatever you want. This our policy." MakeMyTrip has to change their name as shylock finance. I never ever had such worst customer service. IT IS A GENUINE COMPLAINT.
I had booked a refundable flight to Vienna from makemytrip.com. I was supposed to return on 7/10/16. However due to ill health of my father in law who had to be hospitalized as he was suffering from Dengue, I planned to return immediately. I tried to modify my booking and change the date to 29th Sept, 16. Since I could not modify my booking, I cancelled it. I got an email from makemytrip.com to confirm the cancellation. I confirmed on email immediately and also informed them that since I am in a foreign land with no access to phone, kindly cancel my ticket. I bought a new ticket and returned back on 29/9/16. When I called up the toll free no of makemytrip.com to know about my refund status, on 4/10/16, they said that they had not cancelled my ticket despite my email confirmation asking them to cancel. They pretended to have no idea about the cancellation.
They harassed me for hours together transferring my calls to several people and I had to explain my situation to every new person my call was transferred to. They confirmed to cancel my ticket. Next day, I again called and they harassed me again. I had to explain the entire situation again and again but they were just not willing to cancel. My husband rang them again and again they harassed him for an hour and said that there would be no refund as so they are not cancelling the ticket. Still we requested them to cancel ad after repeated requests and around 7 calls harassing us every time they cancelled our ticket and mailed us an email that there will be no refund.
I want to know why there will be no refund at all in a refundable ticket involving 6 flights. Then why did I purchase a refundable ticket? Why did they sell me a refundable ticket when I was supposed to get no refund? And why was I and my husband harassed so much. Being a professional, I was harassed and lost my time calling them so many times. I want a compensation for the refund as well as the harassment. Makemytrip is a fraud company. It has cheated me.
I had made flight booking from CHENNAI to JAIPUR on 24th Dec 16 through makemytrip. Today I received message and email told my flight bookings have been cancelled though I have not cancelled the same. I checked with INDIGO Airlines today to reconfirm the same and I am being told that "your flight bookings have been cancelled by the agent." My booking ID number is **. I have still not received any resolution and each time I contact their customer call centre there are different agents taking us on a ride. The flights is cancelled without any notification. My programme is final and this issue cause a problem to my studies as I am a Student. Looking forward for your timely response and reimbursement.
Makemytrip cheats the customers, while cancel the ticket. Before cancel the ticket cancel amount was 2300/- after cancel the ticket, deducted Rs.7763.00. Concern department should take a step to stop this types of cheating & fraud activities.
MakeMyTrip is the worst experience I ever had. Although having so many collaborations with such big airlines they don't know even the status of the customers flight. Customer Care Supervisor (Vignesh) is a waste to talk with while he will blame the customer only but can't take the feedback. Rather than telling they don't communicate with airlines after booking flight for any purpose they will start blaming the customer, that for all refund procedures customer not only has to contact the airlines but also has to contact the site and this is not their fault that airlines didn't informed to the customer even after wasting customers one month.
Then why the heck you people have tie ups if you can't co-ordinate with your airline partners mandatory for those purposes for which you are responsible only like refund and even don't know how to handle customers. Supervisor will start arguing and will give useless excuses which will not make any sense at all and all he will do is blame customer and airline people for not giving the update but can't take it as their fault as the customer who books flight with the site is their responsibility, not the airlines.
Wasted my hour just arguing. It is not the customer's fault too that the site has a communication barrier with the airlines and they should realize if a customer books a flight from this site, so they have to take their responsibility also regarding any change or refund in the flight especially for the refund purpose if they are only responsible. I don't want to give even one star also because they aren't worth of that too but as it is mandatory field so I'm forced to give. I'm done with this site. Company which is irresponsible and with worst customer service ever been through, all I can say.
We took a MMT European Bonanza trip (18th July 2015 - 30th July 2015) and spend a lot of amount on the travel itinerary. We were very dissatisfied with their service, also escalated our issues to them via emails/phone calls (but not even a single acknowledgement/response till date) which is a complete contrast to when they sell packages where they promise you the moon.
List of concerns - Air flight delays/changes at the last minute, no prior information shared by MMT/travel agents. Travel itinerary was changed on adhoc basis. There was a flight delay from India due to which "Day 1" travel plan didn't happen as per the original itinerary. The revised travel plan was not shared with the passengers (day 1 moved to day 2) and most of the passengers were informed verbally about this change in the hotel reception lobby at Rome. Because of point no.1, less time was given to explore Italy ex - only 20 min given to cover Rome Colosseum. Only panoramic views were provided from coach. Also, only 45 min given to explore Leaning Tower of Pisa, reached the venue at 6:45 pm. A total hush hush affair. Reached destinations like Pisa when they were already closed.
At dinner time, air conditioning was intentionally not switched on. Happened twice at Rome and Pisa. Temperature were in range of 35, and very discomforting for the passengers. Hotel stay in Rome and Pisa were not comfortable. Basic facilities like kettle, toothbrush, etc. were not provided. 3 star standards were not maintained. Travel time from Rome to Pisa is 4 hr 15 min, but it took 5 hrs 30 min to complete this travel. Welcome travel kits as promised were not given - selfie stick, etc. to few passengers as promised. Air flight delays/changes at the last minute (till the last day), no prior information shared. One of the key concerns of many passengers. As per the original schedule, Jungfraujoch was supposed to happen in the morning and Interlaken later. This schedule was also changed. We spend like 1 hr in Interlaken in morning and 2nd half in Jungfraujoch. Time spent at Interlaken was too less and total waste.
On 26th July (Sunday), coach broke down around 11.30 am... approx 5 hrs wasted waiting for the new coach to arrive. Caused lot of inconvenience. Due to this the travel itinerary again changed due to which Brussels visit didn't happen as per the original itinerary. Paris (last destination) was supposed to be a 2 full day tour (city exploration & Disney), was compressed to one and half day only. In few hotel stays, WiFi was a paid facility (euro 8 per day), not free even in the hotel lobby, goes against the 3 star hotel standards. Though it was supposed to be a luxurious travel by coach, the toilets in the coach were never made accessible to the passengers. I would strongly recommend that "BE Aware" of their packages when you put your hard earned money on the table.
This is a completely fraud company having inhumans with no sense of manners and fully commercial porters of D grade qualities with no idea of the meaning 'guests' amongst them. I went with my one and half year kid along with my wife for this group tour and made a horrible, pathetic and disgraceful experience. Still having nightmares for being involved. They don't even care to give you a family seat row in flight even knowing you carrying an infant and you have to pursue the airlines for arranging this in proper rows.
They have porters rather than professionals to take care and these blunt-headed fools only know how to drag you and complete their syllabus within a stipulated time come over what may not at all bothered for individual families and treating in a commanding voice all through. No managers, only at the briefing time, you will be fortunate to see them once and for all and rest you have to be on your own. Like in Havelock, after such a hurricane tour my kid became sick and we have to catch an auto rickshaw by coordinating with the hotel's persons and rush to the hospital for a medical check-up and no trace of MMT guys were found.
Low-cost hotel accommodation in Port Blair even after paying 87000 inr for the trip and most of the beautiful locations remained unrevealed due to their suppressing, like RED SKIN ISLAND, JOLLY BUOY ISLAND, etc. They will also not divulge about the beautiful places like NATURAL BRIDGE AND GLASS BOAT RIDING AT NEIL ISLAND for fetching money and will take you to all the normal boring places like submarine where you can't see anything. Even they came to know you are carrying a sick child, no signs of humanity will come from these bunch of monkeys and you have to identify and carry your luggage all through in every coastal jetty. Overall, everybody should be made alert about this group who are only sitting and displaying with the media to fetch money from guests.
I have been a very loyal customer to Make My Trip and it was a big shock for me to see that they have changed my booking date. Now when I'm asking them to change my date cause it wasn't my mistake but system's mistake that it did show 7th Nov. 2016 to me and it booked 7th Dec. 2016. Now for date change they are asking me to pay around 2250 and 300 for convenience fee and air fare rates would be separate. Such a good way of taking money from people's pocket. A big round of applause for you guys who is not even ready to help inspite of calling so many times. I had booked round trip and they have goofed up by changing the month from 7th Nov. 2016 to 7th Dec. 2016. It is so not cool.
I WILL NEVER BOOK FROM MAKE MY TRIP EVER AGAIN IN FUTURE AND WOULD LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE A BIG FRAUD. It is completely your system's fault and I have read all the complaints above and others have faced same problem as I have so it clearly indicates that there is some problem with the system. Believe it or not but bad mouth will affect your business. Even when I'm calling them they are saying manager is not on the floor, call later, I mean should you not keep one manager on the floor in shifts. Why do you guys say then 24/7 service.
My booking ID for hotel East gate in Agra on 8/10/2016 **... I booked a 3 star room in hotel east gate and your policy states there's no need to confirm the booking with the hotelier or the website. And I trust you people and reach this hotel with 2 families and kids only to find out there's no room in the hotel for us at 11:30 pm in the night... And the hotelier had the audacity to take us and show some dingy room in an adjacent hotel. On much insistence I got rooms in a 2 star hotel, much substandard and not worth the money I paid for... The hotelier of east gate hotel says my deal was with MMT so go better ask MMT. They made me roam around agra for 1 hr to get a room and screwed up my holiday. MMT customer care said we'll be given complimentary breakfast (please check your voice record if you don't trust me).
Assured me of complimentary breakfast and made us look like fools when the new hotelier (Apollo) refused any talk with MMT whereas your customer care told me about a breakfast deal I didn't ask for it. Now you screwed up my holiday and all I want is refund back the money that I didn't get service for (a room a/c in apollo costs 965/- according to your website... by the way the a/c was non functional)... Kudos to the MMT for managing a show to cheat people of their money... You guys better be in good coordination with your hoteliers rather than suggesting to the customer that it's their fault as your other customer care rep did...

text: How Many Chicken McNuggets Are in the Big Chicken?Rae Paoletta3/20/17 6:37pmFiled to: thiccthose nuggetsbig chickengiant chickenchickenmath678EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkBy now, you've definitely seen or at least heard of The Big Chicken. He is large. He contains multitudes. And he is most certainly real.AdvertisementWhile I'm not a chicken expert myself, judging by his phenotypes (i.e. extremely large and incredibly fluffy), he's likely a Brahma chicken—a massive bird originally from India, traditionally kept as a pet. And although most of the internet has spent the last few days ruminating on whether or not the chicken is real, a bigger question remains: How many Chicken McNuggets could you get out of this freak fuckin' bird?Getting to the bottom of this delicious mystery is not as easy as it sounds. For one thing, it's unclear how much actual chicken is distributed to each nugget—but, for the purposes of this rudimentary calculation, we'll assume that each chicken is 100 percent real meat, which it most certainly is not. That said, we do know that a pack of four Chicken McNuggets is around 64 grams. Thus, 64 divided by four yields 16 grams per Nugg.AdvertisementNext, we need to ascertain a little more of this beastly chicken's info. According to the Livestock Conservancy, Brahma chickens can weigh up to 18 pounds. If we convert the weight of one McNugget—16 grams—into pounds, we're left with 0.035274 pounds. So, by simply dividing 18 by 0.035274, we arrive at 510 Chicken McNuggets and some change in this Thicc Chicken.That said, The Big Chicken is so much more than a viral sensation or a vessel for nuggs—he's an icon. I, for one, would welcome him as my feathery overlord—or my lunch.Chickens...EverywhereThis Goth Chicken Doesn't Conform to Your Perfect Chicken SocietyLucky Humans Just Ate the Very First Lab-Grown Chicken Tenders Fried Chicken Was Very, Very Different in the 1700sRae Paoletta@payoletterSpace Writer, Gizmodo

Subject | [jira] [Commented] (DERBY-5265) LOB replication limit |
Date | Thu, 09 Jun 2011 07:00:59 GMT |
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5265?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13046361#comment-13046361 ] Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-5265: ------------------------------------------- I don't know why the maximum value was set to 1MB. Increasing/removing the limit sounds like a reasonable request. Note that there are 10 of these buffers, so when the property is set to 1 MB, you end up with 10 MB of buffer space. I think buffering the logs in memory was chosen for convenience (so that replication didn't need to change the logic that decides when the checkpoint is allowed to delete log files, and probably also because hooking on to the code that wrote the log to disk was easier than actually reading the log back from disk) on assumption that a small buffer would be sufficient for most minor network glitches. Adding the ability to read log files from disk when the buffer is full would certainly make replication more robust, and it would be a useful improvement. > LOB replication limit > --------------------- > > Key: DERBY-5265 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5265 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Replication > Reporter: Brett Wooldridge > > I have an issue with replication as it pertains to LOBs (BLOBs and CLOBs). > According to the documentation... > If the master looses connection with the slave, "transactions are > allowed to continue processing while the master tries to reconnect with > the slave.

As if we were too stupid to figure this out.
From today's Huffington Post headline:
Colorado Wildfire: Controlled Burn Crews Did Not Check Weather Forecasts Which Would Have Predicted High Winds
From the article:
"The Colorado State Forest Service conducted a 50-acre prescribed burn
on March 22... It wasn't far from site of
the monstrous Hayman Fire 10 years ago, and this burn was a precaution.
Once the fire was out, crews patrolled the perimeter daily to make
sure it stayed that way...the hot afternoon
of Monday, March 26, that they spotted an ember blown across the
perimeter and lighting
grass. What they hadn't done in all their methodical planning was ask
for real-time weather forecasts that would have predicted vicious,
swirling winds.
[And they were bad -- up to 40-50 mph. Totally normal for us this time of year.]
From there, a deadly cascade of missteps combined with the
vagaries of wind and fire to produce another tragedy in the Rocky
Mountains...The 6-square-mile
blaze killed three people, destroyed dozens of homes near the small town
of Conifer and raised questions about what could have been done to
contain the human and material losses..."
"'This is heartbreaking, and we are sorry,' deputy state forester Joe Duda said."
Thanks, Colorado State Forest Service (and Joe). I feel much better now.
Read the full report here. Grrr.

Between 2002 and 2008, Japan's economy saw constant expansion, a record among the world's advanced economies and Japan's longest period of economic growth since World War II. This remarkable achievement came about because of a transformation of Japanese business practices. This transformation was guided by strategies that enabled Japan's leading corporations, previously diversified to an exceptionally high degree, to become leaner, more nimble, and more competitive at home and in the global economy.
In Choose and Focus, the first in-depth account of this strategic inflection point in Japanese business, Ulrike Schaede argues that the emerging practices and attitudes have created a New Japan. Drawing on profiles of several corporations, including Panasonic, Takeda and Astellas, Softbank, kakaku.com, and SBI E*Trade, Schaede explains how the fundamental principles of Japan's economy have been overturned. "Choose and focus" strategies, whereby corporations concentrate on core areas and spin off unrelated businesses, have completely altered the strategic logic of Japan's previous industrial architecture. These surprisingly aggressive moves, Schaede finds, have created new market opportunities for start-up enterprises and foreign investors, as well as a wave of mergers, acquisitions, and hostile takeovers that have shaken Japanese companies out of complacency.
Unlike the advances made by Japanese firms in the 1970s and 1980s, the current transformation is taking root in component and materials industries rather than in consumer products. Because of the relative obscurity of the changes and the overshadowing story of China's ascent, the Japanese corporate revolution has gone largely unnoticed among Western observers. Choose and Focus is required reading for anyone doing business in Japan or trying to understand how contemporary Japanese business works and how Japanese corporations have reinvented themselves to face the challenges-and realize the opportunities-of the 21st century.
What can the disciplines of political science and economics learn from one another? Political scientists have recently begun to adapt economic theories of exchange, trade, and competition to the study of legislatures, parties, and voting. At the same time, some of the most innovative and influential thinkers in economics have crossed the boundaries of their discipline to explore the classic questions of political science. Competition and Cooperation features six of these path-breaking scholars, all winners of the Nobel Prize for Economics, in a series of conversations with more than a dozen distinguished political scientists. The discussions analyze, adapt, and extend the Nobelists' seminal work, showing how it has carried over into political science and paved the way for fruitful cooperation between the two disciplines.
The exchanges span all of the major conceptual legacies of the Nobel laureates: Arrow's formalization of the problems of collective decisions; Buchanan's work on constitutions and his critique of majority rule; Becker's theory of competition among interest groups; North's focus on insecure property rights and transaction costs; Simon's concern with the limits to rationality; and Selten's experimental work on strategic thinking and behavior.
As befits any genuine dialogue, the traffic of ideas and experiences runs both ways. The Nobel economists have had a profound impact upon political science, but, in addressing political questions, they have also had to rethink many settled assumptions of economics. The standard image of economic man as a hyper-rational, self-interested creature, acting by and for for himself, bears only a passing resemblance to man as a political animal. Several of the Nobelists featured in this volume have turned instead to the insights of cognitive science and institutional analysis to provide a more recognizable portrait of political life.
The reconsideration of rationality and the role of institutions,in economics as in politics, raises the possibility of a shared approach to individual choice and institutional behavior that gives glimmers of a new unity in the social sciences. Competition and Cooperation demonstrates that the most important work in both economics and political science reflects a marriage of the two disciplines.
Competitive Interests does more than simply challenge the long-held belief that a small set of interests control large domains of the public policy making landscape. It shows how the explosion in the sheer number of new groups, and the broad range of ideological demands they advocate, have created a form of group politics emphasizing compromise as much as conflict. Thomas T. Holyoke offers a model of strategic lobbying that shows why some group lobbyists feel compelled to fight stronger, wealthier groups even when they know they will lose.
Holyoke interviewed 83 lobbyists who have been advocates on several contentious issues, including Arctic oil drilling, environmental conservation, regulating genetically modified foods, money laundering, and bankruptcy reform. He offers answers about what kinds of policies are more likely to lead to intense competition and what kinds of interest groups have an advantage in protracted conflicts. He also discusses the negative consequences of group competition, such as legislative gridlock, and discusses what lawmakers can do to steer interest groups toward compromise. The book concludes with an exploration of greater group competition, conflict, and compromise and what consequences this could have for policymaking in a representation-based political system.
The new immigrants who have poured into the United States over the past thirty years are rapidly changing the political landscape of American cities. Like their predecessors at the turn of the century, recent immigrants have settled overwhelmingly in a few large urban areas, where they receive their first sustained experience with government in this country, including its role in policing, housing, health care, education, and the job market. Governing American Cities brings together the best research from both established and rising scholars to examine the changing demographics of America's cities, the experience of these new immigrants, and their impact on urban politics.
Building on the experiences of such large ports of entry as Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Houston, Chicago, and Washington D.C., Governing American Cities addresses important questions about the incorporation of the newest immigrants into American political life. Are the new arrivals joining existing political coalitions or forming new ones? Where competition exists among new and old ethnic and racial groups, what are its characteristics and how can it be harnessed to meet the needs of each group? How do the answers to these questions vary across cities and regions?
In one chapter, Peter Kwong uses New York's Chinatown to demonstrate how divisions within immigrant communities can cripple efforts to mobilize immigrants politically. Sociologist Guillermo Grenier uses the relationship between blacks and Latinos in Cuban-American dominated Miami to examine the nature of competition in a city largely controlled by a single ethnic group. And Matthew McKeever takes the 1997 mayoral race in Houston as an example of the importance of inter-ethnic relations in forging a successful political consensus. Other contributors compare the response of cities with different institutional set-ups; some cities have turned to the private sector to help incorporate the new arrivals, while others rely on traditional political channels.
Governing American Cities crosses geographic and disciplinary borders to provide an illuminating review of the complex political negotiations taking place between new immigrants and previous residents as cities adjust to the newest ethnic succession. A solution-oriented book, the authors use concrete case studies to help formulate suggestions and strategies, and to highlight the importance of reframing urban issues away from the zero-sum battles of the past.
In Industrializing the Rockies, David A. Wolff places these deadly conflicts and strikes in the context of the Western coal industry from its inception in 1868 to the age of maturity in the early twentieth century. The result is the first book-length study of the emergence of coalfield labor relations and a general overview of the role of coal mining in the American West.
Wolff examines the coal companies and the owners' initial motivations for investment and how these motivations changed over time. He documents the move from speculation to stability in the commodities market, and how this was reflected in the development of companies and company towns.
Industrializing the Rockies also examines the workers and their workplaces: how the miners and laborers struggled to maintain mining as a craft and how the workforce changed, ethnically and racially, eventually leading to the emergence of a strong national union. Wolff shines light on the business of coal mining detailing the market and economic forces that influenced companies and deeply affected the lives of the workers.
Metropolitan Governance is the first book to bring together competing perspectives on the question and consequences of centralized vs. decentralized regional government. Presenting original contributions by some of the most notable names in the field of urban politics, this volume examines the organization of governments in metropolitan areas, and how that has an effect on both politics and policy.
Existing work on metropolitan governments debates the consequences of interjurisdictional competition, but neglects the role of cooperation in a decentralized system. Feiock and his contributors provide evidence that local governments successfully cooperate through a web of voluntary agreements and associations, and through collective choices of citizens. This kind of "institutional collective action" is the glue that holds institutionally fragmented communities together.
The theory of institutional collective action developed here illustrates the dynamics of decentralized governance and identifies the various ways governments cooperate and compete. Metropolitan Governance provides insight into the central role that municipal governments play in the governance of metropolitan areas. It explores the theory of institutional collective action through empirical studies of land use decisions, economic development, regional partnerships, school choice, morality issues, and boundary change—among other issues.
A one-of-a-kind, comprehensive analytical inquiry invaluable for students of political science, urban and regional planning, and public administration—as well as for scholars of urban affairs and urban politics and policymakers—Metropolitan Governance blazes new territory in the urban landscape.

Grant Tinker, 90, dies; led NBC, sitcom studio
Associated Press
NEW YORK – Grant Tinker, who brought new polish to the TV world and beloved shows including "Hill Street Blues" to the audience as both a producer and a network boss, has died. He was 90.
Tinker died Monday, according to his son, producer Mark Tinker.
Though he had three tours of duty with NBC, the last as its chairman, Tinker was perhaps best-known as the nurturing hand at MTM Enterprises, the production company he founded in 1970 and ran for a decade.
Nothing less than a creative salon, MTM scored with some of TV's most respected and best-loved programs, including "Lou Grant," ''Rhoda," ''The Bob Newhart Show" and, of course, the series that starred his business partner and then-wife, Mary Tyler Moore.
"I am deeply saddened to learn that my former husband and professional mentor Grant Tinker has passed away," Moore said in a statement. "Grant was a brilliant, driven executive who uniquely understood that the secret to great TV content was freedom for its creators and performing artists. This was manifest in his 'first be best and then be first' approach."
Tinker summed it up in a 1994 interview: "I just had the good luck to be around people who did the kind of work that the audience appreciates. The success just rubbed off on me."
In 1981, Tinker flourished in a last-ditch effort to save NBC, which was scraping bottom with its earnings, ratings, programs and morale.

§ 286. Jesus sent to Herod.
Pilate now looked upon Jesus simply as a religious enthusiast, innocent of all political crimes, and told the deputies that he "could find no fault in him at all." They then replied (Luke, xxiii., 5) that his teaching had stirred up the people every where, from Galilee to Jerusalem. As soon as Pilate heard that Jesus was of Galilee, it occurred to him to lay the case before Herod Antipas, tetrarch of Galilee and Judea, who had just then come to the feast at Jerusalem.
Herod had for long wished to see Jesus.776776 Cf. p. 323. The fame of the miracles inspired him with curiosity to see what Christ could do. But it was no part of the Saviour's calling to satisfy an idle curiosity. To describe his doctrine fully to a man so utterly worldly, would have been, in his own language, to "cast pearls before swine."777777 Cf. p. 277. He, therefore, answered none of Herod's questions. The disappointed king, having arrayed the Saviour, in mockery, in a gorgeous purple robe, and exposed him to the cruel sport and derision of the soldiers, sent him back to the procurator. Doubtless the latter was confirmed in his own views by the word which Herod sent him.

Low Maturity From meidh: While we found little to no improvement in our test machines, we feel select users could benefit from this app. For us, its intuitive features and Zen-like purity keeps WriteMonkey "always on top." WinPDFEditor is shareware that stands above the masses of freeware and just beneath the do-it-all, big-box (and big-bucks) "solutions" for editing and converting PDFs. Though the application doesn't tidy up as many areas of Windows as some competing programs, it does support a decent number of third-party applications, including download freeware Geovision 7.05 full download, Geovision 7.05 full download, and several IM clients. DataMystic's Geovision 7.05 full download is an enterprise-class search-and-replace utility for Microsoft Word documents. What's interesting about it is that each joint of the body has a corresponding bubble-like button, which allows you to hold, extend, or retract joints during a turn. Playback issues: Players are dropped into a world with only the ability to carve out resources from the surrounding land; you're a miner (duh!).
The last button opened a Web-based manual with plenty of screenshots. Installing this app can be a little confusing, and it's hard to tell initially if you've done it right. It calls a "blue screen of death" when you press Ctrl-Scroll Lock twice.

How to download and install Geovision 7.05 full download?
Geovision 7.05 full download will recognize up to 300 motions, but the trial version recognizes only 5 mouse movements. Anyone can operate this app. Overall, we thought that the program worked fine, but we didn't find any compelling reason that a user might want to download freeware switch from another media manager to this one. Moreover, you can assign and use hot keys to launch each program. Still, we couldn't help but feel annoyed when the program's welcome message suggested that users "RTFM," snarky Internet shorthand for "read the f***ing manual." We were even more annoyed when we did RTFM and found a long, hard-to-navigate text file that didn't even address all of the basic features that are present on the program's interface. It's a polished app that supports most American cities and many urban areas in Europe, South America, and Australia.
You can make a donation to the Document Foundation, the not-for-profit group that supports the suite's development.
A manual is not included, forcing new users to the publisher's Web site for documentation. The search of the fountains is automatic. Setup took us only a minute or two, and the app is available for PC and Mac as well as Android and iOS, so it's likely to communicate with any other gadget you own. Using a simple pull-down menu, changing security settings is quickly accomplished on the program's second tab. This application (Demo Version) is designed to help with fitness training by calling out different boxing / kickboxing combos to be performed by the trainer. This application promises to instantly capture thumbnails from a Web site, but suffers from an unappealing design and spotty performance. However, we did wish Geovision 7.05 full download offered a standard two- download games or three-pane interface in addition to the ticker.
Geovision 7.05 full download User's review:
Geovision 7.05 full download lets you create and customize shortcut menus so that you have easy access to the programs you use most whenever you need them. Connecting with USB requires developer permission and a new driver (that windows may flag as suspicious) on your computer. Geovision 7.05 full download comes with a variety of controls that aren't always found in media players, including an equalizer and adjustments for balance and reverb. WWPlus32's cluttered configuration interface download games isn't user friendly. Shortcuts can also be set for toggling half screens for easier arrangement. Applications that function as download files simple tools are all over the market. The program tucks nicely into your system tray when not in use and feels sleeker overall. Geovision 7.05 full download provides all the tools needed to convert audio and video clips, but it also adds a level of complexity that audiophiles will love. This program is fast and efficient, and while it doesn't have a lot of fancy features, it does what it does very well.
is a free time-tracking application that records how and when you use your computer and generates useful statistics and reports from the data. As in those games, the object is to blast waves of enemy ships and collect power-ups.

I have been making games for a while now (using Java, C# and Game Maker) and I decided to start making Flash games. But there is one thing that I don't know: which script should I use? AS2 or AS3? What is the main difference between them? I play a lot of games here on Armor Games, which one are they made on (AS3 or AS2), for example Gemcraft?Also could you point me to a site where I can see some examples for AS (sources etc)
Look, i dont know nothing about AS2, but I work with AS3 and I need to say that it syntax is very similar to Java and C#.

Television and Celebritization: A Louisiana Story from 1960
February 24, 2014 | By David Bennett | No Comments
Television has been turning everyday people into celebrities since it became a fixture in American households. Although reality television did not begin until 1973 with An American Family, television news reporters were putting everyday people in the spotlight long before that. Throughout the later 1950s and 1960s, we can see television news coverage turning local issues into national spectacles, a single person's voice into the voice of an entire city. One such early instance of television news plucking ordinary people and thrusting them into the national spotlight occurred during the New Orleans integration crisis in 1960. Read More

The F-15S is a modified F-15 Eagle unit from the Strangereal world.
All right, gentlemen, it's time to clean house!
This article or section may require a cleanup to meet Acepedia's quality standards.
The F-15S was a rare combat aircraft developed from the F-15S/MTD in the late 20th century. One of the most advanced Eagle variants produced, it employed canards from the S/MTD in conjunction with wings, tailplanes and engines derived from the YF-22 Lightning II, making it as maneuverable and agile as either but lightly increasing its loaded takeoff weight. Despite its origin, it was a single-seater, in the vein of the F-15C Eagle.
In the 1990s, a handful of F-15Ss were owned by air forces of Usea, while a lone unit was outfitted with artificial intelligence systems by Gründer Industries as part of the Zone of Endless project. During the 1997 Usean Coup, two elite squadrons used them to defend Saint Ark, and later Fortress Intolerance. Gründer's "General" unit was also part of the Saint Ark defense force, but was destroyed by Phoenix.
Game analysis
- "An F-15 with thrust deflection nozzles and canard wings, used as a testing machine for air combat maneuverability research. Because it proved itself extraordinary during tests, it was chosen to be deployed in actual combat."
- ― NamCollection description
- Span: 13.05m
- Length: 19.43m
- Height: 5.63m
- Total weight: 20,244-30,845 kgs.
- Ally: Light purple with white trim stripes.
- FRND: Lime green with white trim stripes.
- Enemy Type A: Deep blue with stripes and emblems.
- Enemy Type B: Air superiority gray.
- The F-15S is based on a fictional Japan Air Self-Defense Force adaptation of the F-15S/MTD from the 1993 Mamoru Oshii anime film Patlabor: The Movie 2. Coincidentally, said aircraft was created by Macross creator Shoji Kawamori, who would later design the ASF-X Shinden II in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon.
- The F-15S is one of the first original aircraft designs of the Ace Combat series, along with the XB-10 and XFA-27. However, it is replaced by the conventional F-15 S/MTD in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy, making its existence non-canon outside the pre-Legacy continuity.

text: Ok, this is gross, but I need your input. My 16 week old kitten has never has poo that smells like this and we haven't changed his food. The only change that we have made is his litter. We changed from newspaper strips to Swheat Scoop. We were told by a friend that her litter box never smells and she uses newspaper strips, so we tried it. We loved it!!!! No tracking, no smell and was sooooooooo easy to clean. However, Solomon hated it and started peeing and pooing in the bathroom sink and tub. So back to litter and he immediately stopped using the sink and tub....just the litterbox. I had read and heard such great things about the wheat litter, but quite honestly, we hate it! It doesn't cover the poo smell and it doesn't clump the pee. The one good thing about it is that you can flush it....very easy to clean up that way. I am at a loss....do we switch his food to see if the smell is his food or do we try a different litter?

text: Windows 7 to Debut By Mid-2009?matt buchanan10/22/08 5:20pmFiled to: windows 7MicrosoftWindowsWindows VistaRumor27EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Microsoft reporter queen bee Mary Jo Foley has put together a few signs suggesting that Windows 7 may debut earlier than anyone imagined—in the first half of next year. While it's been expected that it'll be released to manufacturing by the end of the year, a few signs point to it being on track to RTM before mid-2009. In particular, Microsoft is now advertising that the Windows Hardware and Engineering Conference 2008 will be the only chance to engage with the team before Windows 7 is released. WinHEC 2009 starts on May 3. This would mean, as Foley points out, that the public beta expected in December would probably be the only public beta before release. It also makes Steve Ballmer's recent comments that it's okay to wait for Windows 7 make more sense—it's hard to push Vista with an aggressively straight face when the next Windows is really less than a year away. Of course, we'd prefer Windows 7 soon rather than later, but we'd also rather wait for a smooth, seamless launch that doesn't resemble Vista's rather ugly debut. It seems like Microsoft is really trying to get the launch (and the OS) right from the get-go this time, so we're actually kinda optimistic. [I Started Something]Reply27 repliesLeave a reply

Four times world champion bids for a fifth with NGK
Four-time World Speedway champion Greg Hancock is once again being supported by NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd as he bids for a fifth title. NGK is backing the 46-year-old current champion as well as two more exciting riders competing in the 2017 FIM Speedway Grand Prix season.
Marathon bike ride raises £30,000 for Downs Syndrome Association
Charity cyclist Stuart Bayne raised more than £30,000 on his marathon ride through New Zealand. Stuart, who is Sales Manager – North for NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd, cycled 2108km (1309 miles), climbing more than 14,000 metres, during his epic journey from Bluff at the southern tip of New Zealand's South Island to Cape Reinga…
He's done it!
Super cyclist Stuart Bayne has completed his 2100+km marathon charity ride up the length of New Zealand. Stuart, who is Sales Manager – North for NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd, had planned to raise funds for the Down's Syndrome Association (DSA), but had to alter his route after two recent simultaneous major Earthquakes which struck north of Christchurch forced him to take a more arduous route.
NGK on TV
Be sure not miss out on major TV coverage this weekend of the World's No.1. First off Greg Hancock, three times Speedway World Champion is looking to win a fourth title at the Australian FIM Speedway Grand Prix in Melbourne this Saturday night which will be screened on BT Sport 2 at 10:00pm. Then you can catch more coverage featuring NGK in Go Charlie : Hillclimb Project Part 2 on Motors TV at 17.50pm.
Greg Hancock ready to scoop fourth world title
NGK-sponsored Speedway star Greg Hancock is on the verge of winning his fourth Word title after a crash ended rival and fellow NGK stablemate Jason Doyle's title challenge.
NGK Speedway stars in first GP 1-2-3…
NGK-sponsored Speedway riders raced to a clean sweep of the Czech Grand Prix, taking the first three places…
Salesman of the Year
NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd has announced Ray Nicholson as its Salesman of the Year at its recent annual sales conference held in Edinburgh. It is the first time 57-year-old Ray, of Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, has won the title; an achievement he is justly proud of. He said: "I am delighted to have won the award…
Damon races in to NGK to collect charity cheque
Former Formula One World champion Damon Hill OBE has paid tribute to NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd and one of its staff for raising funds for charity. The 55-year-old British motor racing legend is patron of the Down's Syndrome Association and praised NGK and Stuart Bayne for helping raise more than £17,000 for the charity.
Max powers to first win
It takes two to tangle as Mercedes found out to their cost in Barcelona this weekend. After a dominant qualifying session which resulted in a front row lock out for the Silver Arrows with a relieved Lewis Hamilton taking pole by almost a quarter of a second, it looked like business as usual for the Mercedes team.
The Speedway sponsorship tradition continues
NGK-sponsored Australian Speedway star Jason Doyle is in confident mood for the 2016 FIM World Championship season having finished second, with 13 points, in the season's inaugural GP in Krsko, Slovenia.

Bradford Real Estate – Diversified Commuter Town Becoming a GTA Home Buying Destination
Bradford is a beautiful community full of history, culture and great people. Our region is anchored by a strong diversified economy. Over the last few years we've seen excellent growth.
A large part of this growth is due to Bradford's hybrid of small town life with the convenience of a 35 minute drive to Toronto via our close proximity to the 400.

The ability to easily access the city makes Bradford a very desirable Commuter Town. The Bradford real estate market is booming. Buyers from Toronto are attracted to affordable home prices in addition to small town life, along with the far more affordable house prices compared to other real estate markets nearby such as Newmarket. We're also seeing many buyers from neighbouring regions such as Simcoe and York attracted Bradford due to its close proximity and housing values.

Learn how to color wash walls from decorative artist Aliya Riaz in this Howcast painting tutorial.
In our series on decorative paint techniques we're going to explore how to color wash. Color washing is a technique that was basically made very popular in Italy. You'll find it in a lot of the Tuscan walls. It's an absolutely beautiful technique.
You just need a glaze, you need at least a three or four inch brush, and obviously your base color. So the key is to apply the glaze onto your base. You are going to be working in a cross hatch technique.
The base I have here is very small, but when you're working on a wall you use your whole arm to make giant X's. So you don't get… I will actually show you how to do that on here, but I'm first getting all the glaze onto my surface.
And color washing by and large is done in terracotta, so warm siennas, very Tuscan colors. As you can see, the cross hatching is becoming much bigger. So, having these brush strokes showing is a very, very desirable part of this technique.
And if you do want to soften it I have a very special brush here called a badger brush which is made of 100 percent badger hair, and it is used to soften techniques, soften brush marks. And you use it in the direction of the cross hatching. It just gives a nice, mottled look to your finish.
And there you have color washing in a single color glaze.

Trying to Teach the Turkeys
Is it possible to train totally 'wild' wildlife? I guess so, for my deer anyways...they have learned to come to the corn yard certain times of the day. They also know if they show up in the morning, I will faithfully scatter their corn in several piles then go on and do my chores. Maybe they have trained me! Certain deer, mostly the smart ones which is usually Bossy's crew, will even wait until after dark, hide near the barn and watch for me hoping for a late night snack. Last week, Buttons touched his nose to my outstretched fingers for a split second! That was a surprising first since his mother Brownie who has known me for three years won't even do that though she has gotten close. Don't worry, when other humans are around, they all scatter. The only other deer I have touched was Nub, Brownie's two year old boy though that was not by choice. Click on this link if you want to read Defying Death. Getting back to the turkeys...it is a tough winter for these amazing birds.
We saw the turkeys close to the house a month or so ago much to our delight as for years they seemed to have vacated the farm due to our dogs roaming at will. The electronic collars have worked wonders for the past few years but the turkeys continued to stay away, until last December.
They are extremely difficult for me to figure out. They do not behave in a consistant manner. They do not arrive on a daily basis nor scratch for leftover corn at a certain time of day. They know the good husband and I are the source of the corn as they must watch while I feed the deer or else how would they know to come so close to the house...
I have learned to just be honest with them... sounds silly, but it works. At first, I thought sneaking behind the barn to avoid them seeing me might be the answer since they used to run like crazy when a human approached. I would walk up the hill with two full buckets of corn and the turkeys would be out of sight. Now, I walk in my usual pace down the to the barn and this time, I talk to them. I know, crazy farm lady talking to turkeys, but their reaction changed! They didn't scatter. Granted, they cautiously walked back up the hill but several of them turned around to watch me. I always say the same words. The deer know the word 'corn' and many know their names, so at least the turkeys can learn 'corn'. One can only hope.
The first time when they didn't scatter in fear, they were headed toward the pond. But, when they heard my voice they turned to look and some lingered, while others walked slowly back in the direction of the corn yard but still on the other side of the road staying close to the brush for safety. They watched me scatter corn. I immediately left and went back to the barn hoping (to no avail) that they would come back down and eat.
The second time was just a few days ago. Did the same thing. This time they were a bit closer to the house but still going back up towards some brush. I kept talking and they kept looking. They very slowly made their way up the hill following their leader with a great view of the corn yard dotted with yellow piles of goodies. Still nothing. I left, this time walking back towards the house thinking my barn noises might disturb them. Nope, nada, nothing.
The third time, the good husband was in the car. They don't seem as afraid of his quiet engine so he backed towards the house, got me, drove to the barn to get the corn, and while they were only a half way up the hill, I scattered the corn from the car. Still didn't work.
I guess it took years for the deer to trust me, so I must be patient for the poor turkeys. I just don't understand why they won't follow the lead of the deer and save themselves from hunger. I know there is an alpha female who heads the flock and I think there is another alpha female who is last in line as the others in between seem younger and slightly different in color. Their behaviors in many ways mirror the deer with several competing for the corn. I've read about turkeys following the deer during Winter feedings so maybe with time, these shy birds will do the same. It is very frustrating trying to teach these turkeys! ;~)

This is amazing! They truly are interesting, aren't they? I know you'll have those turkeys 'trained' in no time at all. I just love that you do this, and yes, I would be one of "those" crazy farm ladies - talking to the wild critters! Thanks for sharing - made me smile :) -Tammy
