"When you put on a pair of polyester pants that are supertight in the crotch and slightly flared at the bottom, it makes you walk different."
So says Michael Wilkinson, the Oscar-nominated costume designer recalling the "immediate and strong reaction" he got from the stars of "American Hustle" as they tried on their disco-era duds for the first time.
A selection of those pieces — from Christian Bale's burgundy velvet suit to Amy Adams' plunging sequined gown with the high center slit — are on view to the public in the free exhibition "Art of Motion Picture Costume Design" through April 26 at the FIDM Museum and Galleries at the Fashion Institute for Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles.
Now in its 22nd year, the exhibition brings together 100 costumes from more than 20 of 2013's biggest films, including ones from all five 2014 Oscar design nominees — Patricia Norris for "12 Years a Slave," William Chang for "The Grandmaster," Catherine Martin for "The Great Gatsby," Michael O'Connor for "The Invisible Woman" and Wilkinson. It also shines a spotlight on Jacqueline Durran's 2013 Oscar-winning gowns from "Anna Karenina."
Handmade, or store bought and then altered, these costumes serve as top-notch examples of the careful research and creativity that goes into transforming an actor into a legendary kung-fu master, a 1920s dandy or a slave.
"Clothes don't just happen — they're put together by the costume designer," says Salvador Perez, the Los Angeles-based president of the Costume Designers Guild and a working costume designer on Fox's "The Mindy Project." "Whether it's a T-shirt and jeans or it's a Dompierre gown, it's the costume that helps the character come to life."
In the exhibition, visitors can get an up-close look at the pink seersucker suit worn by Leonardo DiCaprio in "The Great Gatsby," and Jennifer Lawrence's white "American Hustle" dress with rhinestone straps at the back. They'll see many others from such films as "Lee Daniels' The Butler," "Oz the Great and Powerful" and "Saving Mr. Banks," all with their different points of reference.
"It's about the details," says FIDM spokesman Nick Verreos, a fashion designer and historian currently starring on "Project Runway: Under the Gunn."
Among the costumes he singles out for their attention to detail are those from "The Grandmaster," which takes place at a time in China when sewing was still done by hand. And so Chang's were, too. For visual reference, he tapped his collection of photographic books of the era and spent two years searching out and acquiring beads, ribbons, lace and other materials for the authentic costumes.
For "The Great Gatsby," Martin "incorporated a lot of current designs from Prada, from Tiffany, from Brooks Brothers and she blended them with period flapper 1920s costumes," Verreos says. "It was her way of subliminally trying to get a contemporary-marketed viewer to feel comfortable. So when you watch the movie, yeah, there's a '20s vibe, but even for me — and I know the '20s — I was like, god! That just looks so now."
As a result, Martin's work has influenced the world of fashion, from the red carpet to the runway.
"All of a sudden, everything was heavily beaded," says Barbara Bundy, FIDM's vice president and museum director. "We had ropes and ropes of pearls and little dressy evening bags."
Norris had little information to go on when she set out to create the look of "12 Years a Slave." The neutral, aged and distressed costumes were part historical research, part guesswork. One thing was clear: Slave clothing was largely cast-offs, including hand-me-down menswear and off-period dresses for women.
"You're having to read books and hoping that somewhere in there, somebody will describe fabric or button placement," Perez says. "There are not a lot of photos, so it's a lot of work."
For his work in "American Hustle," Wilkinson set out to express the decade's distinct style, from flamboyant, exaggerated lines to a more streamlined '80s vibe. He tried to use as many real pieces from the 1970s as he could find, but because the surviving clothing is now 40 years old, it isn't always in the best condition.
And so, he designed and made a number of the pieces worn by the stars, including all of Bale's velvet suits and Adams' wrap-around dress with the vintage fur for the Studio 54 scene. The two each had more than 40 costumes.
"We really cared so much about getting these characters right," Wilkinson says. "And essentially that's what costume designers are about: finding the essence of the character and expressing it using fabrics, colors and all those thousands of tiny little details that you can put into a costume."

When I first popped this CD into the player in my car, I have to admit I was disappointed with what I heard. It was an original song, "Cool, Cool Ride," by fiddler/guitarist/singer Lisa Fuglie, and it didn't move me.
When I first popped this CD into the player in my car, I have to admit I was disappointed with what I heard. It was an original song, "Cool, Cool Ride," by fiddler/guitarist/singer Lisa Fuglie, and it didn't move me.
I hit the button to skip it to the next selection, "Chattanooga," by guitarist/vocalist Derek Johnson, which is a much better song to listen to while driving, because it, well, drives with a cascade of notes from the banjo. I got to where I was going before the song ended (short trip), and I didn't listen to the CD until the next day when I had time to sit with headphones, listen and ruminate about each track.
After more careful listening, I decided that each song was a gem, even "Cool, Cool Ride." After repeated listenings, though, I remain convinced that "Cool, Cool Ride" and "Chattanooga" should switch places. "Chattanooga" is a much better opener, because it drives and grabs you by the ear. Plus, it has the line that gave the CD its title.
This is Monroe Crossing's 13th recording — the band is calling it their "lucky 13th" in the publicity materials — and it has that blend of old and new, loud and soft, fast and slow, ballad and breakdown, fun and serious material that make any recording project, no matter what genre, a pleasure to purchase and listen to over and over again. Moreover, it's one of those recordings that has such all-around quality that you want to listen intently, not while doing something else. It isn't background music.
I know, because I've got it on in my ears right now while typing this, and I keep stopping to listen carefully to the harmonies, the great picking and the absolutely literary quality of the songwriting, especially Fuglie's writing.
Readers who listen regularly to the weekend or Thursday night bluegrass music programs on Rolla radio stations have likely heard of Monroe Crossing.
There are 14 tunes on this CD. In addition to the aforementioned "Cool, Cool Ride" and "Chattanooga," there are seven other band originals: "Bullet Train," "Cicada," "Rain Was Turning Into Snow," "Heavenly Table," "Easy to Get Lost," "If the World Were Filled With You," and "Bread and Milk."
In addition, the band includes "Hobos in the Roundhouse," by Bill Isles, a folk singer; "Foggy River," a classic country song by Hank Thompson; "Doing My Time," by Jimmy Skinner, which is a Flatt and Scruggs tune; "Last Letter Home," a classic bluegrass song heard usually in the Sam Bush version on the local bluegrass radio programs, and, believe it or not, "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress," a long-time-ago hit by The Hollies, a British rock group.
Monroe Crossing is a Minnesota-based bluegrass band, but they like coming South, especially in the winter, and they have a good feeling for the Southern states and people, a feeling that comes through in their songs.
For instance, in "Heavenly Table," one of the old-timiest-sounding of the tunes on the disc, they celebrate the virtues of biscuits and gravy, cornbread and butter, greens and tomatoes, hominy and okra, catfish and cole slaw and hush puppies, beans and bacon. The liner notes say these are their "favorite foods," so we can look past their Minnesota-ness.
Likewise, they've got an instrumental, "Cicada," that surely captures the summer sounds of that critter that we're so familiar with down here.
And "Bread and Milk" reminds me of what goes on around here in the winter when the weathercasters on TV and radio start warning us of impending snow. People charge into the grocery stores and empty the shelves of bread and the dairy cases of milk; they have to stock up because they seem to think they're going to be stuck at home for months. Monroe Crossing gets it down in song.
Those three, "Heavenly Table," "Cicada," and "Bread and Milk," are all Lisa Fuglie tunes.
She's also the writer (with bassist/vocalist Mark Anderson, who co-wrote "Bread and Milk") of "Bullet Train," another fast-moving song. Bluegrass and country music are filled with songs about trains, from the Old 97 to the Wabash Cannonball. This is the first bluegrass song I've heard about a high-speed, solar-powered, magnetically-levitating, California-built high-speed train. Life changes, technology changes and bluegrass reflects those changes.
Johnson, a new member of the band, wrote "Chattanooga," a song about going back home, a familiar bluegrass theme, and "Easy to Get Lost," in which he uses the line, "It's easy to get lost when you don't know where you're going," told to him by a woman who overheard him giving directions to a confused tourist in downtown Minneapolis.
"Rain Was Turning Into Snow," by mandolinist/singer Matt Thompson, is a metaphor about a once-warm relationship turning cold.
Lisa Fuglie also wrote "If the World Were Filled With You," not a gospel song but certainly an inspirational song about how wonderful it is to be around people who are filled with the fruit of the spirit, people she refers to as "God-tended" vines.
"Last Letter Home" is a mournful song about a Southern cavalryman in the Civil War. Every bluegrass project needs a mournful Civil War song, especially one written from the Southern point of view. "Doing My Time" was worked up during a sound check after Earl Scruggs passed away, according to the liner notes. "Foggy River" is country, but it has been done bluegrass-style before, and it works.
So, too, does "Long, Cool Woman." I can see you shaking your head and hear you snickering, but believe me, it works. Maybe we'll hear it Saturday night on the radio right after my other favorite crossover, "Burning Love," by Dale Ann Bradley and the New Coon Creek Girls.
My absolute favorite song on this disc is "Hobos in the Roundhouse." It's a slower song by, according to the liner notes, Bill Isles, a folk singer from Duluth, Minn., who wrote the song "as a tribute to his grandfather who worked in a train roundhouse during the Great Depression."
According to the notes, Isles's grandfather worked nights and would let hobos sleep in the roundhouse during cold weather, in spite of the danger of losing his job.
The lyrics of this song are absolutely wonderful, about a man who kisses his family at bedtime and then heads off to work where he takes care of the trains and looks out for his hobos. It's even gospel-tinged with the narrator wondering what would Jesus do in this dilemma of taking care of the hobos while trying to keep the job to take care of his family. The Lord provides an answer. I'll not tell you what it is, for I don't want to spoil it.
I've mentioned most of the band members already. To those names add David Robinson, the banjo picker who also plays harmonica; he's another new member and what a fine addition he is. All of these musicians are impeccable artists and they've come up with brilliant arrangements of these songs.
And they're not afraid to try something different. Not only do they use clawhammer banjo on a couple of tunes, they've got harmonica and even a snare drum on one. Don't gasp; you hardly notice the snare.
This is a CD that both traditional bluegrass fans, like myself, and progressives will like. Monroe Crossing remains true to their roots (they've named the band after Big Mon himself, remember) while also exploring modern themes in their lyrics and trying some bold arrangements and instrumentation.
I'm going to listen to this CD again and again, while driving and while sitting at home doing nothing but listening intently.
About Monroe Crossing
Named in honor of Bill Monroe, "The Father of Bluegrass Music," Monroe Crossing dazzles audiences with an electrifying blend of classic bluegrass, bluegrass gospel, and heartfelt originals. Their airtight harmonies, razor sharp arrangements, and on-stage rapport make them audience favorites across the United States and Canada.
Based in Minnesota, the group plays an average of 125 shows a year at major venues and festivals, frequently for non-bluegrass audiences — and people often comment that they'd never really liked bluegrass music until they attended a Monroe Crossing concert!
Monroe Crossing is made up of five very distinct personalities with differing musical backgrounds and tastes, combining for a very unique ensemble sound. They are Derek Johnson: guitar, lead & harmony vocals; Lisa Fuglie: fiddle, mandolin, lead & harmony vocals; Matt Thompson: mandolin, fiddle, baritone vocals; Mark Anderson: bass & bass vocals; and David Robinson: banjo. Their paths crossed through the music of Bill Monroe so they like to say they had a "Monroe Crossing."
Among their many honors, Monroe Crossing was selected to showcase at the 2007 International Bluegrass Music Association Convention and they were inducted into the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame in 2007. The only bluegrass band ever nominated as "Artist of the Year" by the Minnesota Music Academy (MMA), Monroe Crossing won the 2003 MMA "Bluegrass Album of the Year" award. The group also took home four awards — for Female Vocalist, Guitar, Mandolin and Banjo — at the Minnesota Bluegrass and Old-Time Music Association's 25th Anniversary Awards Banquet.
Monroe Crossing has recorded 13 CDs and one DVD to date, their latest (before 'The Road Never Ends") was the well-reviewed album "Joy Joy Joy," showcasing the band's originality and reverence for the bluegrass tradition.

Thanks to Attorney Robert Hawk for recognizing in his May 14 letter to the editor that common respect was destroyed in the case of former state Sen. Jane Orie holding a sign of apology to be sent to all Pennsylvania judges. Did she deserve that part of the sentence? If so, then the president and his accomplices need to get their signs of apology ready for using the FBI and the IRS to prevent various Tea Party and pro-life groups from organizing.
Also, the auditing of tax records has become a weapon in their arsenal of suppression against individuals who are conservatives.

My title was imported from Japan.
It's getting down to the wire and if you've put off your shopping till now I don't know there's any hope for you but if--like me--you still have one or two people left on the list here's a few suggestions for gifts that might help out and see you through the holidays:
1. For the chef. The first time I saw this bowl made from recycled chopsticks at Cool Tool I said, "Somehow, somewhere I'm going to get one of those." Though the more I think about it the more I want to figure out how to make one for myself. But regardless, this is the neato gift for the kitchen person in your life. Beautiful, functional and oh so cool. (It would look beautiful in my kitchen Andrew.) My only concern is with the word "recycled." It's got me wondering if the guy who made it saved up all his used chopsticks left over from a year's worth of Chinese take out and figured out how to make a buck off of it. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
2. For the builder. My kids have spent more hours with Legos and K'nex than any other toy on the market. Period. A box of these terrific toys will keep them happy for hours and hours and the great thing is it's not like a game or a puzzle, where if you lose one of the pieces you're ruined and you can add to the collection little by little as you go. Legos in particular are, in my humble opinion, probably the greatest toy ever made. And they come in Star Wars characters too. My only caution is the price, Legos can be terribly pricey--though they'll last into the next century--and if, like me, you have a hard time shelling out over $100 for a child's toy you might consider Mega Blocks as an alternative. Not as colorful or with as many characters, but for a basic set of blocks they're worth it.
Though I haven't said as much about K'nex toys they too are great building sets, especially the Kid K'nex line you see pictured above. They're especially great for making tiny spaceships and zooming them around your mother while she's making dinner until she breaks down sobbing "When oh when will your father get home??" Not that I've had any experience with that. None whatsoever.
3. For the mother. Julian and Co. makes custom pendants and bracelets from silver coins with your child's face carved on the surface. Truly a unique gift that would warm the heart of that parent on your list, I especially love the silver bracelet pictured at left reminiscent of the original Tiffany silver heart bracelet that's been so popular.
4. For the mommy-to-be. For future little mommies I'd recommend the Groovy Girls dolls. They're soft and plush, not too big or too small and hip without that nasty edge of those "Dolls that Shall Not Be Named." You know, the ones that start with a "B" and end with "rats?"
Groovy Girls come in a wide variety of features: dark hair, light hair, olive skin, dark skin, all kinds--I believe I even saw a pink-haired mermaid model that would be very popular around here with a certain five year-old I know and love. There are also a whole bucket load of little accessories that go with the dolls so you can wade as deeply into the Groovy Girls craze as you and your pocket book allow. Lillian loves her Groovy Girl who has been christened Rilee Natalya Elizabeth after one of her beloved buddies who also loves the GGs (yea, I'm hip to these).
5. For the pre-teen boy. For boys anywhere from 6-12 I'd recommend outdoor gear. The great thing about this idea is that you can spend as little or as much money as you'd like. Hand warmers, rain ponchos, flashlights, waterproof matches, a compass, a pocketknife, pliers, safety whistles, first aid kits, mess kits, a flint, freeze-dried food, backpacks, fingerless fishing gloves, sleeping bags, sleeping mats, tiny outdoor stoves, anything that can be used for outdoor survival will be thrilling to a boy. Trust me, I've proved this time after time in my own home. If you don't do camping typically the items will be all the more loved--let them go make camp at the vacant lot down the street (without the camp fire of course) or in the backyard. The Dangerous Book for Boys wouldn't be a bad gift either--it would teach them how to use all the gear.
6. For the difficult to buy for. Find here a list of the latest interesting inventions and gadgets, some of which are really fabulous (I love the Warp 5 Star Trek toaster here). My favorites are the laser scissors, the cup with cookie-slot, this toaster and the modern ladder. Though it may work as a gift for a friend or teacher I'm saying it now honey, don't get me a ladder, toaster or pair of scissors for Christmas no matter how cool they are. Just don't. Surely you've learned that much in fifteen years of marriage?
7. For the early teen girl. Crafts, crafts and more crafts. Candle making, soap making, stamping, making stationery, beading, all of these would be fun to try and there are so many kits that have everything you need to give it a go. If you can't find the craft kit that fits the person on your list you could assemble your own, including all the tools, supplies and directions to make a craft--maybe one of those circular knitters with a pattern book and a couple skeins of yarn for example.
8. For the beginning reader. Consider a magazine subscription. It's too late to get one started and in the mail before the holidays but you could always pay for a sample copy to be wrapped up along with the subscription. There are some excellent children's magazines and kids love getting things in the mail (well actually, we all do). May I suggest Highlights High Five (a new preschool magazine that I've reviewed and liked), Zoobooks, Sports Illustrated for Children, American Girl or National Geographic for Kids? All great publications.
9. For the adult reader. Forgive me if you've already read this book, but if you've got a reader on your list (particularly a teen girl) consider the "Twilight" series. I work with teen girls at church and there isn't one of them (or their moms) that hasn't loved the books. There's Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and the as-yet unnamed fourth novel is in production--all about the adventures of Bella the human who falls in love with Edward the vampire. Yes, it's full of teen angst as only vampires can experience and no, it's not meant to be gritty realism but if you've got someone who likes books and hasn't read this yet (and the chances of that are getting slimmer and slimmer every day as it's been a best seller and the movie is in the works already) you can't go wrong with this series.
10. For the little hostess. How about a tin tea set? Here's one at Target that I love, Lillian also likes her little plastic toaster, blender and cooktop that she can set up at the counter to cook alongside of me. Plastic food is inexpensive but you could also save empty boxes of real products to use in pretend cooking, like boxes of macaroni and cheese and jiffy muffins.
11. For the big hostess. If you haven't yet seen Nora Fleming's products your life has been incomplete. She makes ceramic serving pieces with tiny interchangeable ceramic figures that are simple adorable. Adorable as in "I want that! I want that! I want that!"
12. For the artist. If you have a small child on your list just a simple plastic container filled with random art supplies is a terrific gift that will also go over well with their parent. With washable markers and crayons you can also rest well knowing their walls and clothing are safe. If you have an older child on the list consider getting some more advanced supplies, like pastels and sketch paper, charcoal pencils, watercolor pencils (the kind that you draw with then brush with water and get an entirely new look) or a paint-by-numbers. Michael's usually has well-priced art sets that come in carrying cases and with one of their 40% off coupons you'll be loving it. And so will the artist on your list.
13. For the lover of pretty things. I found a gallery in Homer, Alaska that carried the most beautiful handmade jewelry I think I've ever seen. Michael Michaud makes necklaces, bracelets, earrings and pins that mimic plants, herbs and berries. The blueberry necklace at left is one of my favorites but I have a boxwood earring and necklace set of my own that I absolutely love. LOVE. As in "Bury me in it."
Bonus* 14. For the lover of Latin. Sixth and Elm has the prettiest, nay, loveliest collection of wood-burned boxes that I've ever seen. Enough to make me run out and buy a wood burner which I plan on learning to use immediately following all holiday madness. My favorite is the one covered in Latin script from "The Love Letters of Abelard and Eloise." If that doesn't just ooze romance I don't know what does.

There's a preview of Assassin's Creed 3 on GameSpy with quotes from Ubisoft Montreal Creative Director Alex Hutchinson about what to expect from the stealth/action sequel. The author deserves extra points for the concluding Q&A expressing skepticism that the PC edition of the game will be released alongside the console editions. On another PC-related topic, they learn that their professed "love" and plans for "supporting" the PC does not include putting time into mouse and keyboard support (thanks Destructoid). Here's word:

Despite the severe drought in the Northern Hemisphere this past summer, the global supply of vegetable oils is actually expected to grow in the 2012-13 marketing year. However, the recent unusual activity in the U.S. export market underscores the fact that the market for the various major oil types does not necessarily overlap. U.S. export volumes of soybean oil have been explosive. A comment in a recent report by the German oilseeds analyst Oil World summarized the situation well: "This illustrates that the substitutability of the individual oils is having its limits."
Consider these statistics. Since the beginning of the marketing year, which began on Oct. 1, U.S. exporters have sold 590,000 tonnes of soybean oil, compared with only 140,000 tonnes at this time last year. In historical terms, these sales levels are not without precedent. In 2009, commitments at this point of the season were 716,000 tonnes, and in 2010 they were even higher, at 796,000 tonnes. This year's sales are still worthy of attention, though. At this time of year in the previous 10 years – including the extraordinary sales seen in 2009 and 2010 – commitments averaged only 312,000 tonnes by the beginning of December.
The USDA had been forecasting surprisingly low U.S. final sales for 2012-13. Until now, the estimate for the whole season was below year-to-date commitments. In the December crop report, the estimate finally caught up to reality, to some degree. The estimate was revised up by more than 50%, to 820,000 tonnes. That compares with final sales of 660,000 tonnes for 2011-12, but is considerably below 2010-11 sales of 1.47 million tonnes. Average final sales for the previous 10 years were 932,000 tonnes. We believe it is unlikely that sales will not exceed the 10-year average, given that sales to date are already double the 10-year average.
After suffering through a scorching drought this past summer, the 2012-13 U.S. soybean crop harvested in the fall turned out much better than anybody believed it could. The November USDA crop report raised its estimate for the crop to 80.86 million tonnes, which is 10% above the lowest estimate of the season.

What OS did it use now then? Ms Win? I mean what else?
Sorry just me friendly teasing. It has another equally guarded OS
Android. You need to jail break it to become root and load Puppy on it!

Post subject: Canadian connection
There is a Canadian connection. The company that
has designed
the project is based in Montreal.
"People laughed, people called us lunatics," ministry official N.K.
Sinha said. "They said we are taking the nation for a ride."
Although the $10 goal wasn't achieved, the Aakash has a color screen and
provides word processing, Web browsing and video conferencing. The
Android 2.2-based device has two USB ports and 256 megabytes of RAM.
Despite hopes for a solar-powered version — important for India's
energy-starved hinterlands — no such option is currently available.
Both Sibal and Datawind CEO Suneet Singh Tuli called for competition to
improve the product and drive prices down further.
"The intent is to start a price war. Let it start," Tuli said

With only 256 megs of ram, there is not much room for cache in memory for viewing videos.
But then again, with the graphics chip it is using that is supposed to get with it, you never can tell.
Also, the India site in the specs says the tablet has 1 USB port.
The site in Canada in specs says the tablet has 2 USB ports.
Different models maybe?
Opps. I just realized that the specs list 2 gigs of internal USB storage.
So internal and external would indeed make 2 USB ports.
But it makes you wonder if the internal USB has a standard plug in port.
It sure would make increasing storage capacity easy.
I also noticed it limits USB storage to 32 gigs.
And I wonder if that is due to memory address decoding hardware or availability of USB flash drive size currently being 32gigs max.
I know on a laptop I have, the max memory listed is 512 megs.
and with it, I assume that if I tried to go above that, hardware memory decoding would not let me.
It is like max memory on 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, and 64-bit computers.
An 8-bit computer is only capable of directly addressing a 16bit address.

a BBC review
... what you really need are the apps and content ecosystem.
While the courseware development happens, the world will move on,
with even better tablets that leave the Aakash further behind.
The low battery life of the tablet is a concern
And while I like the 7" size for its portability, students
will find it less friendly than a 10" display for educational apps.
But yes, that would cost more.
And the battery is rated for three hours; we got a bit over
two. The Aakash warms up in use. That means precious battery
power is going away as heat.
So every school kid who uses it will probably need a charging
socket in their desk. And that's not likely to happen soon.
Leaving it to charge repeatedly in common areas is not practical,
for a variety of reasons.

The worst thing for a poor Indian young student has to be replacement of the battery after two years of usage.
AFAIK every standard LiIon battery lose much of it's capacity after about two years of daily usage. Even to just have such on a shelf make them lose capacity.
And to save money these are most likely soldered in place automatically at production?
it would be less costly if them used NiMH which can be replaced by the student themselves and which now and then go on Sales to low prices which I have not seen LiIon go. And them usally are special made for each gadget so them are not interchangeable the way an AA cell is.

From Wall Street journal
Aakash may prove a failure because, first, used computers are
available at dirt cheap prices. Second and more important is the phenomenal
rise of cell phones. They can increasingly do things that
computers and tablets do.
A basic Indian cell phone costs just $15, far cheaper than an Aakash. In
fact, the cost of the cell phone is only slightly higher than the government's
subsidy, and calls are only two cents a minute. Cell phones can be charged by
batteries in rural areas with little or no electricity. The Aakash, by contrast, will have
an extra charge in the cost of a wireless connection. At this rate, the people
most likely to buy the Aakash are better-off Indians—clearly not those
at whom the subsidy is aimed.

news item
Minister Kapil Sibal today said the low cost computing device Aakash
has generated a lot of "enthusiasm" among the American public and several companies
there have evinced interest to associate with the project to further raise
its efficiency and productivity.
Several people and big companies met us who are into this business (IT).
They expressed interest to partner with this project, to increase its application
and speed, increase the processor from 300 MHz to 800 MHz,"
Sibal told reporters here.
However, he said the price tag of USD 35 willl remain
the same and the US firms have agreed to this.

Such is important. People are extremely conservative in habits.
This phenomena has fancy names. Social inertia or similar terms.
You see same behavior in choice of OS. some 90% of all sold computers
to the common average Joe has Ms Windows on it. Social inertia.
Same with email choice. Some 99% of every average person use Hotmail as their email. At least that is how it is in Sweden among those I know.
Social inertia again.
Same with Social Networking. Them are all of them on Face Book and not Google + or some other such platform. Social inertia again.
So that quote may be right. If a typical Indian average Joe has bought a cell phone then them go on texting and making calls on that one and
to buy even a subs is not what them do. Only geeks would and the richer families for their kids.

I've been a total blog slacker lately. I haven't posted anything since last month's Daring Bakers' challenge. I wish I could say that I was busy with work, travel or the World Cup. Or that I haven't had the time to bake lately. But I don't have any excuses. Work is, well, work and that's as busy as it has always been. My next big vacation isn't until the fall. And I value sleep over watching the World Cup. Besides, the constant drone of the vuvuzelas during the broadcast have been driving me, and probably every one else, batty!
I've been baking like a mad woman, but it's been mostly repeats of stuff I've already posted on alpineberry - red velvet cake, macarons, almond lemon tea cake, yogurt cake, palmiers, fruit cobbler, black bottom cupcakes, banana bread and cheesecake. I'm still on the hunt for a great chocolate brownie recipe. Last week I tried the fudgy brownie recipe in last month's Fine Cooking magazine as well as Alice Medrich's cocoa brownies. Both were decent and the co-workers enjoyed them tremendously, but neither was what I've been looking for.
I've also been playing with my newest toy, a Cuisinart ice cream maker. So far I've made Vietnamese coffee ice cream, chocolate-peanut butter ice cream, strawberry sorbet and dark chocolate ice cream. The recipes are from David Lebovitz's The Perfect Scoop. The chocolate ice cream is made with both Dutch-processed cocoa powder as well as bittersweet (72%) chocolate. It was by far the absolutely best chocolate ice cream I have ever eaten. Thanks David!
Despite all that time spent in the kitchen, I didn't photograph any of it. I didn't want to set up the photo lights. I didn't want to think about what to say in a blog post. I just wanted all that food to just be food. Can you tell that I've been in a blogging rut? Sigh.
So I wasn't sure if I was going to participate in this month's Daring Bakers' challenge. I've been on the fence about continuing to participate in the DB challenges the past few months. When I first joined in February 2007 there were just 10 of us. In fact, of those original 10 ladies, Elle and I are the only ones still active. Despite the huge success of the Daring Kitchen (which includes both Daring Bakers and Cooks), I miss the intimacy of a small group.
But the daring spirit lives in me for another month. This month's challenge was hosted by Dawn of Doable and Delicious. She asked us to make a chocolate pavlova with a chocolate mascarpone mousse based on a Francois Payard recipe. Pavlova is a crisp meringue that is typically served with whipped cream and fruit.
For the shape of my cocoa meringues, I took inspiration from the photo in Francois Payard's Chocolate Epiphany. I filled a silicone mold with the meringue to make half-spheres. The spheres were a bit rough on the outside, but I found the spheres charming nevertheless. The full sphere reminds me of the Death Star. I also piped some shells into a more traditional shape.
The verdict? The cocoa meringue was crisp on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside. It was light as a cloud and melted in my mouth. Mascarpone was a nice twist to the dark chocolate mousse filling. The cream anglaise mascarpone sauce seemed a bit superfluous, but it was a nice complement to all that chocolate.
See what the other Daring Bakers thought of the challenge.
The fine print: The June 2010 Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Dawn of Doable and Delicious. Dawn challenged the Daring Bakers' to make Chocolate Pavlovas and Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse. The challenge recipe is based on a recipe from the book Chocolate Epiphany by Francois Payard.
Chocolate Pavlovas with Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse
Recipe 1: Chocolate Meringue (for the chocolate Pavlova):
3 large egg whites
½ cup plus 1 tbsp (110 grams) white granulated sugar
¼ cup (30 grams) confectioner's (icing) sugar
1/3 cup (30 grams) cocoa powder
1. Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 200º F (95º C) degrees. Line two baking sheets with silpat or parchment and set aside.
2. Put the egg whites in a bowl and whip until soft peaks form. Increase speed to high and gradually add granulated sugar about 1 tbsp at a time until stiff peaks form. (The whites should be firm but moist.)
3. Sift the confectioner's sugar and cocoa powder over the egg whites and fold the dry ingredients into the white. (This looks like it will not happen. Fold gently and it will eventually come together.)
4. Fill a pastry bag with the meringue. Pipe the meringue into whatever shapes you desire. Alternatively, you could just free form your shapes and level them a bit with the back of a spoon. (Class made rounds, hearts, diamonds and an attempt at a clover was made!)
5. Bake for 2-3 hours until the meringues become dry and crisp. Cool and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Recipe 2: Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse (for the top of the Pavlova base):
1 ½ cups (355 mls) heavy cream (cream with a milk fat content of between 36 and 40 percent)
grated zest of 1 average sized lemon
9 ounces (255 grams) 72% chocolate, chopped
1 2/3 cups (390 mls) mascarpone
pinch of nutmeg
2 tbsp (30 mls) Grand Marnier (or orange juice)
1. Put ½ cup (120 mls) of the heavy cream and the lemon zest in a saucepan over medium high heat. Once warm, add the chocolate and whisk until melted and smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let sit at room temperature until cool.
2. Place the mascarpone, the remaining cup of cream and nutmeg in a bowl. Whip on low for a minute until the mascarpone is loose. Add the Grand Marnier and whip on medium speed until it holds soft peaks. (DO NOT OVERBEAT AS THE MASCARPONE WILL BREAK.)
3. Mix about ¼ of the mascarpone mixture into the chocolate to lighten. Fold in the remaining mascarpone until well incorporated. Fill a pastry bag with the mousse. Again, you could just free form mousse on top of the pavlova.
Recipe 3: Mascarpone Cream (for drizzling):
1 recipe crème anglaise
½ cup (120 mls) mascarpone
2 tbsp (30 mls) Sambucca (optional)
½ cup (120 mls) heavy cream
1. Prepare the crème anglaise. Slowly whisk in the mascarpone and the Sambucca and let the mixture cool. Put the cream in a bowl and beat with electric mixer until very soft peaks are formed. Fold the cream into the mascarpone mixture.
Recipe 4: Crème Anglaise (a component of the Mascarpone Cream above):
1 cup (235 mls) whole milk
1 cup (235 mls) heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split or 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
6 large egg yolks
6 tbsp (75 grams) sugar
1. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture turns pale yellow.
2. Combine the milk, cream and vanilla in a saucepan over medium high heat, bringing the mixture to a boil. Take off the heat.
3. Pour about ½ cup of the hot liquid into the yolk mixture, whisking constantly to keep from making scrambled eggs. Pour the yolk mixture into the pan with the remaining cream mixture and put the heat back on medium. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens enough to lightly coat the back of a wooden spoon. DO NOT OVERCOOK.
4. Remove the mixture from the heat and strain it through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until the mixture is thoroughly chilled, about 2 hours or overnight.
Pipe the mousse onto the pavlovas and drizzle with the mascarpone cream over the top. Dust with confectioner's sugar and fresh fruit if desired.

Father John S Romanides was a Great man.His qualifications are Loyalty to Romiosini, Loyalty to Orthodox Traditionalism, Loyalty to resisting ecumenism.
[Why that subject would make one knowledgeable of the Anglo-Saxons]Oh come on Ebor. We've seen that by the actions of St Augustine baptizing the Saxons they really came under the Emperor in New Rome. It's obvious that in another article Dr R will point out that the Saxons are really Greeks. Not only did their baptism bring them under the Emperor but also made them Greek. I'm sure the AS Chronicle is best read in the original Greek. Think of it if it wouldn't have been for William winning at Hastings then Saxons would be reputed as the best diners in the world.CR
Those are his QualificationsI regard adherence to Romiosini to be a qualifier
I wouldn't have thought that one had to be a Dr of a particular period of history to be able to right an article about that period? There is a difference between writing about the use of the letter t in Middle English adjectival sentence constructions, and writing a more general historical article expressing theological points.I think that Fr John Romanides of blessed memory was one of those folk who was genuinely gifted in many areas, and I wish I could have met him.PT
Pardon this westerner's ignorance but what is "Romiosini"?Carpo-Rusyn
Father John Romanides is probably as well known and considered as Frs Meyendorff and Schmemann.
The Vladimir Moss material has turned up fairly recently on romanity. I don't know who runs it since Fr John Romanides died.
"The Romans"
Ebor: I know that many people do not find the Anglo-Saxons and Norse as fascinating as I do.
["The Romans"]Ah so that's what that means. I must've missed that in my copy of Caesar's "Commentaries". I shall inform the Vatican. Would everyone on this forum please refer to the Church previously known as the Roman Catholic Church as the Romiosinian Catholic Church. We'll work on getting the stationary changed. What wan't this in Shakespeare (probably another secret Greek) "Oh Romiosini, Romiosini wherefore art thou Romiosini?"Thank YouCR
The Word Roman now belongs to the Greeks, as Romaioi, Romaiikos, and as Romiosini..
This post gave me autism.
Since when has a Hierarch done anything for you? . . .
Oh good grief, not this again...
But apparently not "Romans" as in Augustus Ceasar, the Legions, the Eternal City etc, but Hellenism...Ebor
Well I don't know about hijacking it, but I thought that in the Middle East the EO's were known as Rum Orthodox, and always have been since the 6th/7th centuries.
are called Rum Katoleek, literally Roman Catholic...
Exactly, therefore it is not merely a form of linguistic hijacking to say that Byzantine Orthodox is Roman.
Ebor, my friend, you've read too much Gibbon who blithely dismisses about 1000 years of Roman Imperial history by virtually ignoring Constantinople.

Standing in front of a group of Reede Gray Elementary School students Monday morning, author/illustrator Rick Chrustowski admitted, "When I was a kid, I did not like to read...."
Standing in front of a group of Reede Gray Elementary School students Monday morning, Rick Chrustowski offered an admission.
"When I was a kid, I did not like to read," he said.
While that might not be the kind of thing a children's book author would readily say in front of his potential audience, Chrustowski confessed the truth to make a point.
Not every child is going to like every book on the shelf.
Chrustowski, who grew up in Indiana and now calls Wisconsin home visited students at the local elementary school to talk about his passion, which has obviously changed over time.
"I love books," Chrustowski said, adding he has authored and illustrated five books and illustrated another four more.
Chrustowski said as a child he just did not find many of the books he found very interesting, but then he heard about a story he just had to read.
"I was told there was a story about a spider who wrote words in a spider web," said Chrustowski, adding that exposure to "Charlotte's Web" got him hooked.
It also provided the muse for the books Chrustowski has published, as the genre he has been writing is all about animals written in a non-fiction style for kids.
"I love animals, especially insects," he told the students.
Among the titles Chrustow-ski has penned are "Bright Beetle," 'Big Brown Bat" and "Turtle Crossing."
Chrustowski studied art in college, adding he took every art class he could. He also enrolled in a creative writing class, and even though he has graduated he told the kids he is still learning every day.
"I'll keep learning for the rest of my life," he said.
While writing books about animals, Chrustowski told the students he likes to get to know them as well as he can, which led him to dig a pond in his yard to learn more about frogs and to raise chickens for a book he was illustrating.
Being an author/illustrator is not easy, said Chrustowski.
"You have to work hard," he said. "Sometimes you are going to get stuck, and it is OK to set something aside for a while and come back to work on it again later."
He said one book he wrote took him nine years to finish, and it had only 250 words.
Chrustowski told the students to "find that something you enjoy" and then do it – whether that is writing, drawing or whatever.
He also told them to keep reading, because there are so many cool books to read.
