Question: What is the term for this sub branch of social phobia?
|mickapoo - Tue Feb 17, 2009 11:34 pm
Share |
I'm not certain if I worded the subject the right way.
I had read about a condition, which I thought was sometimes found with those who have social phobia, but I cannot recall the name. The condition involves anxiety after the feared situation has passed. One overanalyzes and obsessantly worries about the situation and how other people had reacted, what they said, how they looked, and puts a negative spin on everything, believing that every reaction from others revolves around themselves.
I hope I'm describing this right. I have read about it but cannot remember the term. If anyone can offer assistance as to what this disorder is, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.

What term I believe you may be describing is 'Ideas of reference'; however I also wonder if you may be thinking about generalized anxiety disorder. Hope this helps.......

The world is experiencing unprecedented urban growth. Today 55% of the world's population resides in urban areas, and it is expected to grow to 68% by 2050, with most of it occurring in Asia and Africa. It is also expected that just three countries will account for 35% of that growing: India is projected to add 416 million urban dwellers, China 255 million and Nigeria 189 million. Rapid urbanization challenges sustainable development, especially in developing countries, where local governments often fail to cope with rapid urban growth and are unable to provide suitable services and infrastructure, leading to urban poverty traps and larger inequalities This rapid urban growth worldwide has led to growing numbers of slum dwellers, increased air pollution, inadequate basic services and infrastructure, and unplanned urban sprawl .
As the management of urban growth is a key element to the fulfilment of the SDGs, the study of urban footprint growth becomes essential to better inform policy makers. Unfortunately, few studies have used systemic and standardized methods to identify the way in which Latin American cities grow. The understanding of urban footprint growth can help to maximize the benefits of agglomeration while minimizing the adverse impacts of urban growth itself. Some of these lessons might be useful for Africa and Asia, as their current challenge is to build sustainable urban settlements for the future.
This project focuses on two dimensions of urban footprint growth: the expansion of the urban extent and the dynamics of growth within the city. The project asks;
- Is it possible to implement a parsimonious model of urban footprint growth using only freely available data?
- Which urban footprint growing types have been observed and what kinds of land have been consumed by LAC cities?
- Have urban footprint growth types made an impact on the economic performance of LAC cities?

Judge Norma Lindsey
A subcontractor was entirely responsible for a fire inside a condominium its workers were helping renovate, an appeals court has ruled.
The general contractor that hired the painting firm was a "passive" actor and cannot be held liable financially, the Third District Court of Appeal in Miami has ruled, affirming a decision by the Circuit Court for Monroe County.
Brother's Painting & Pressure Cleaning Corp. appealed against the unfavorable decision that dismissed its claims of breach of contract, negligence, and indemnification against Curry-Dixon, the general contractors.
In its counter-claim Curry-Dixon alleged that Brother's Painting "owed a duty of care to Curry-Dixon to perform the painting work without creating a dangerous condition and/or causing damage."
It was found both by the lower court, and on appeal, that Brother's Painting was responsible as the fire was started when a a rag soaked with an oil-based stain was placed inside of a trash can, which then "spontaneously combusted."
MD Energy Holdings, and its principals, filed suit against both. Those actions were previously settled.
In an opinion filed Feb. 5 and authored by Judge Eric Hendon, with Judges Norma Lindsey and Bronwyn Miller concurring, the panel agreed that Curry-Dixon was "passively liable as a result of Brother's Painting's negligence" and that therefore the sub-contractor was required to indemnify the hiring firm.
Addressing Brother's Painting's argument that the other company was actively negligent, the court stated that the "undisputed facts show that Brother's Painting was solely negligent and because Curry-Dixon is only vicariously liable for Brother's Painting's negligence, we disagree."
"Brother's Painting argues that Curry-Dixon was actively negligent, and therefore, as a matter of law, Curry-Dixon is not entitled to indemnity," Hendon wrote. "Contrary to Brother's Painting's argument, the undisputed evidence demonstrates that the damages to the condominium unit were caused by Brother's Painting's sole negligent act of leaving an oil-soaked rag in the plastic garbage bin that was in the condominium unit."

Where: 148 Pakington Street, Geelong West
When: * to be confirmed
Phone: 5222 1115
Web: facebook
Did you know that G-Town has its very own treasure chest?? Yep that's right, Geelong has a special chest of treasures that is exploding with lovely gems and trinkets and super gorgeous gifts. Oh! Hello Geelong absolutely loves things that are fun, pretty and also a little kooky, so when we first found Eclectica and excitedly rummaged through all of the fabulous products, we felt like two treasure hunters who had just stumbled across gold!
The birth of Eclectica (pronounced ec·lec·tic·a)…
The shop of amazing treasures, that is Eclectica, is owned by the sassy pocket rocket Amanda Jane Hille, who is a woman who really knows the meaning of living life to the full. Amanda Jane is a Geelong girl who grew up spending loads of time inside her mother's gift store, where she worked after school and on weekends. During her teens, Amanda Jane tried her hand at jewellery-making after finding a pair of her Dad's pliers and playing around with some old beads from an op-shop; a talent was discovered! What started out as a little hobby became her first business venture and for 8 years Amanda Jane sold her handmade jewellery from her shop in town.
After many years of creating and selling amazing pieces, Amanda Jane decided to put away her pliers and beads and set off on a soul searching journey to India where she worked in an orphanage for several months. For Amanda Jane this was a beautiful experience and one that shaped her new approach to life. After India, Amanda Jane spent four years in Queensland where she worked in an art gallery and travelled around in her campervan of love. Fun!
Falling in love with Geelong again…
After several years away, Amanda Jane's family and a good friend wanted their favourite girl back and convinced her that they found a store on Pakington Street that had her name written all over it! With that, Amanda Jane made the journey home and started working on the store. Despite her initial apprehension about coming back, she discovered that there was lots to love about her home town and admits she now wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
So, those treasures we were talking about…
Eclectica is an expression of Amanda Jane and is in many ways a microcosm of Amanda Jane's own "eclectic" home. Amanda Jane's current shop loves are her collection of cotton scarves and her framed butterflies (Amanda Jane has quite a thing for bugs). She also stocks a generous selection of beautiful Nancybird handbags, the super comfy Angads Quilts, Pocket Art Handkerchiefs, Lambada wallets and handbags, Robert Gordon pottery, Oshi cushions and bottle openers, her range of Richard Stampato printed shirts and scarves and her Casauno ceramic pottery. Not to mention, beautiful hanging lanterns, the prettiest ever tea sets, kooky little woodland ornaments and some fabulous metal wallart. We also thought her new range of Kindle Candles were pretty spesh – they're low burning so you can use the wax for massages and moisturizing…wow! Oh, and the Lumbi pencil cases and cushion covers, which come with a Geelong twist, are super cute gift ideas.
The store also has a diverse collection of jewellery, including Afri Bead (which supports an African village) and some of Amanda Jane's own pieces which are a made using brass, tiny crochet doily shapes and unique bits and bobs from Amanda Jane's collection. And if it's a present for a little one your after, Eclectica has lots of oh so cute things for them too!
Amanda Jane describes herself as a tactile person who loves things that feel good. She is also a sensory lady who is stimulated by colours and smells, which you can see coming through in her collection. Amanda Jane aims to be competitive, so her customers are able to go away with beautiful things for a nice price.
Treasures to share…
Eclectica is a genuinely feel good experience and if you have the pleasure of meeting Amanda Jane while you're there, even better! Eclectica is the place to go if you want something a little unique for you or your home or if you're after a gift with Wow-factor.
Eclectica's treasures are for us all to share – thanks Amanda Jane for sharing so much of yourself and of course your fab little treasure chest with Oh! Hello Geelong.

So you want to get faster, maybe break three hours in a marathon or maybe … just maybe qualify for the Olympic trials. No matter where you are in your running career, you can.
But, Jasmine! A lot of these competitive women train a whopping 80, 90, 100 miles or more per week. I don't have enough time to do that. How can I ever be that fast?
You can. I want to put to rest the misconception that training for big dreams requires an ambiguously large amount of time and nothing better to do. The truth is that putting in the work to train at a competitive level doesn't really take up that much time.
I don't want to tell you that you can have it all. But even if you have kids, a demanding career, or need to go home every four hours to let a dog out, you probably have time to train as much as the average elite runner. Read more >>

- getting solar PV installed at the RTS to provide renewable energy and cost savings for the town- building on our success in the NStar Community Challenge to help more homeowners save energy and moneyRead more and join us!
In 2009, Green Needham first suggested the possibility of installing solar PV on top of the capped landfill at the Recycling and Transfer Station (RTS). Since then, the cost of installing solar PV has declined, Massachusetts has implemented policies that make it one of the leading solar PV markets in the United States and several communities have taken the lead in demonstrating the feasibility of solar at closed landfills.
The time is now for Needham to take advantage of this opportunity. A 2 megawatt (MW) Solar panel system on top of Needham's capped landfill would generate approximately 2.3 million kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity per year, which is about 28% of the total electricity used by the Town's municipal and school buildings in FY 2011.

The research in our lab is concerned with advancing structural and functional MRI methodologies (e.g. fast and high-resolution imaging techniques) for human brain imaging. We also aim to improve our understanding of functional brain signals, including spatiotemporal characterizations of the blood oxygenation level dependent contrast and alternative contrast mechanisms that are more directly linked to the neuronal activities. Additional effort is invested in applying and validating the developed methods to study human functional neuroanatomy.

Shang Dang ginseng and Zi Tuan ginseng was the most famous thousands years ago. But, the ancients only value scooping not protecting. Easpecially the destroyment of virgin forest made the vanishment of wild ginseng. Till Ming Dynasty people use ginseng grown from Northest area outside Shanhaiguan.
Where is the best ginseng of the world In modern times? That is the wild ginseng grown in Changbai Mountain. Among them, Changbai Mountian Wild Ginseng is the first class.
Wild ginseng is rare, expensive for most of the customers, so forest-planted ginseng is possible.
Ginseng planters seeding ginseng seed in Changbai Mountian, it grown at least 20 years, and the effect is the same with wild ginseng. However it is cheap and fine.
What's more, we could chose garden-planted Ginseng that grown up in the the soil from Changbai Mountain.

At the start of May, p4-6 students and parents enjoyed a study tour to Okinawa. We enjoyed some fantastic sights, including visiting a local school, a glass recycling factory and the incredible Okinawa Aquarium. The students learned a lot about another culture and had a great time on the trip!

Baking Cookies
Linking the subject matter taught in the English workbooks to the real world is practical and fun for students. Our P2 classes have learned a procedural text type - a cookie recipe. Luckily, the students could enjoy the sweet cookies too, but only after identifying the ingredients and the verbs involved in the recipe.

Professor Ronald Geskus heads the biostatistics group at OUCRU. His unit plays an important role in the design and analysis of clinical trials, and devise modern trial designs. Research interests include the construction and validation of models for diagnosis and prediction, models for the development of markers of disease progression, and complex time-to-event data.
The role of biostatisticians in clinical research is to contribute to trial design, by calculating sample size for example, and to help draw correct conclusions from the data, discriminating important information from noise. They are instrumental in the translation of a practical problem into a statistical model, and the translation of the result into practice.
Ultimately, medical research must translate into improved treatments for patients. At the Nuffield Department of Medicine, our researchers collaborate to develop better health care, improved quality of life, and enhanced preventative measures for all patients. Our findings in the laboratory are translated into changes in clinical practice, from bench to bedside.
My name is Ronald Geskus, I currently work at OUCRU in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. We are a group of 6 biostatisticians and I am the head of that group. A biostatistician tries to prevent incorrect conclusions to be drawn from the data analysis. We are like the controllers of all of the quantitative analysis data done at OUCRU.
In a clinical trial we want to see whether some new treatment works better than the existing treatment, or maybe works better than no treatment at all, and it may be that the new treatment also has side effects or maybe it doesn't work at all. Another thing is that a clinical trial in general is very expensive; there are lots of regulations around clinical trials, not without reason, but this requires a lot of logistics as well. So you don't want to include too many patients, you want to include just enough patients to show that the effect works better. That is done in sample size calculation, finding out how many patients to include, and that is a typical job of a biostatistician.
Clinical trials are a basic example of an explanatory model; you want to explain the effect of the treatment. An observational study is different from a clinical trial: in general the sicker patients are more likely to receive a treatment. In both cases the purpose is explanation: what is the effect of the treatment? So explanation and effect or efficacy is basically the same. Whereas in a prediction model you want to find factors that help predict the outcome.
Research in biostatistics is important because nowadays so many data are collected, and it's very important to do a proper analysis of these data, and this also holds for medical fields. Many more data are collected nowadays and this will generate a lot of noise. A lot of data is not relevant so it has become more important to find methods that are better to discriminate between signal - important information and noise.
As statisticians, we work at the basic part of the scientific research. We don't work at bedside, but if you take translational medicine literally, it's about translation of results into practice. Statisticians also play a role as they know very well the structure behind the model and they are in general very good at explaining results. In general what I like about doing biostatistical research is the translation of a practical problem into a statistical model, and then the translation of the result to practice.

Authors reveal the images that inspired 100,000 words
About the author...
Sandra Danby is a proud Yorkshire woman, tennis nut and tea drinker. She believes a walk on the beach will cure most ills. Unlike Rose Haldane, the identity detective in her two novels, Ignoring Gravity and Connectedness, Sandra is not adopted.
My novels are about adoption reunion and identity; my latest, Connectedness, is set partly in Málaga, Spain… but it might have been Paris. Connectedness tells the story of art student Justine King who chooses art college in Spain for her year studying abroad because she is inspired by Pablo Picasso. What happens in Málaga shapes the rest of her life, and her art. She was originally destined to spend a year in Paris, in truth because I fancied the idea of research trips involving sitting at Parisian pavement cafes, watching people go by, drinking coffee and eating croissants. Until I realized that living in Andalucía in Southern Spain, as we do, means I am within a stone's throw of the birthplace of Pablo Picasso. So Justine changed countries.
I learned Spanish at weekly classes, got to know the locals, made some friends, and embarked on the first of many research trips to Málaga. In truth these visits involved a lot of walking around, getting lost, taking photos and sitting at pavement cafes. The only variation from the Paris plan was that I ate olives, rather than croissants. Then as I wrote Justine's introduction to the city, I realized I was writing about food. How to order coffee, how to eat olives, why Andalucian fried fish is the best; the simple oddity of foreign food for a Yorkshire girl abroad for the first time.
A story that began with Picasso evolved into a love affair with the city and its art. It is a real case of the setting inspiring the story. Justine's time in Málaga is short but the action could only take place there and the fantastic streets and Spanish flavour brought my sketchy ideas to life. The beaches at La Malagueta and El Palo, the Moorish architecture of the Alcazaba and Gibralfaro, are like nowhere else. To Justine, it is another world. As a child growing up on the Yorkshire coast, her father encourages her to draw seabirds. He tells her the true story of how the boy Pablo took his father's unfinished sketch of a pigeon and completed it better than his father could. And so Picasso becomes Justine's muse.
In Connectedness, Justine arrives in Spain in 1982 as an art student. Málaga was a very different place from what it is now. General Franco had been dead only seven years, the country was feeling its way free from dictatorship. Justine lives on the Plaza de la Merced opposite the house where Picasso was born, then still a ruin. Despite the boom of seaside tourism and the naming of the 'Costa del Sol' in the Sixties, Málaga in 1982 had a down-market image of kiss-me-quick hats and cafes serving fried English breakfasts. Wealthy tourists arrived at Málaga airport and left straight away for nearby Marbella. There was no Museo Picasso, no Casa Natal [Picasso's birthplace], no CAC [Contemporary Art Centre], no Centre Pompidou Malaga, no St Petersburg State Russian Museum, no Carmen Thyssen Museum as there is now.
I wanted to convey the strangeness of being in a place where you cannot speak the language, where you are far from home and feel, though not exactly friendless, adrift. I used my experiences of when we first lived in Spain - the little difficulties with being understood, the sheer 'different-ness' of things, the puzzling habits and mores, the old-fashioned way of doing things - to bring truth to Justine's isolation. She sees inspiration everywhere, in the tiles on floors and walls, the heavy wooden doors, the stone and brickwork, the light, the mountains and trees. At first she revels in the city; she is a top art student destined for success until love, and life, gets in the way. To the outside world, artist Justine Tree has it all, but she also has a secret which threatens to destroy everything. Her story, Connectedness, is published on May 10, 2018.

Rated 3 out of 5 by 1960s girl from New shoes, really? when I received the shoes they looked like they had been worn before, i.e. the top was not smooth at all. But since the sole was very clean, I kept them because the Marianne shoes are the best fit for me. I wonder if the fact they had been worn was the reason for the big discount. I'm a little disappointed in the company.

Allow our team to thoroughly inspect your home for mold. It is essential to protect your home from a significant buildup of mold. With our exceptional service, you can have peace of mind. We encourage you to read the following to learn more about mold and the risks it presents.
Mold growth can start as soon as 24 hours after a water event has occurred. Mold can often be seen in the form of a discoloration or a stain. When molds are present in large quantities, called colonies, they become a health concern.
Molds are microscopic fungi that need plant and animal matter in order to grow. It is estimated that there are greater than 100,000 different species of fungi that exist across the world. These thinly spun threaded organisms produce spores that then allow them to spread themselves to different locations. Spores can be spread in the air, through water, or even among insects.
Where are molds found?
Molds are found in virtually every ecological niche and are found outside in nature and in homes and buildings. They are most prevalent in areas that have moist or wet climates. They are often found indoors in humid spaces such as basements or showers. Some authorities believe as many as 50 percent of all homes may have some level of Stachybotrys infestation.
Count on our 28+ years of experience in the home construction, design, and inspection business.

WHENEVER the country's fortunes have been up, so have mine...whenever India's fortunes have been down, so have mine." Never before have fiftieth birthdays come with such a shared sense of destiny. Buoyed by such an accumulated force of macro-history. The story of a nation somehow always acquires a life beyond the millions of mundane biographies that make it up. And so, the real human stories always remain untold, submerged in the swathe of larger-than-life 'events'. Never glamorous enough, never newsworthy enough and, in an age that celebrates 'difference', almost always smothered by sameness. Yet...
Come to think of it, it was pure chance that they were born within 24 hours of that fateful midnight. But the sense of growing up with India, infected by the sunny optimism of the morning, took deep, mystic roots for some. As if their destiny is somehow interminably tied to that of India, through shared astro-charts or simply a twin sibling bonding. Reinforced by some parents who, overwhelmed by the moment, searched their mind for a befitting name and chose Azad, Swaraj, Bharathi, Subhas, Jawahar.
But growing up with the nation hasn't been easy in the least. Matured responses, as they cross the 50th milestone together, span the gamut. Disenchantment—"Our Independence has been polluted like our air and water." Cynicism—"What are we celebrating? 50 years of one of the world's most dishonest nations?" Disavowal of even the dimmest zodiacal link—"My personal history bears no similarities with that of the country. Our positions are completely different." Born in tumultuous times of riots, partition, despair, and a new dawn, some of these 50-year-olds are philosophical about the course the nation has taken—"Isn't change the only constant in a society?" Pulled apart by contradictions, here's a sampling of the lives of some of modern India's first free children.
Born into the madness of riots, the trio lived to tell the tale
THE exporter, the Lahore-born 'refugee', the industrialist. The earliest images Ajay Kumar Jain
has of his birthday, August 15, comes from a tale recounted by his parents—that when he arrived in this world at 10.30 am that historic day, there were no nurses or doctors at hand. "My grandfather lovingly called me Azad; it became my nickname for the rest of my life." 'Azad' was the itinerant soul always in search of new pastures—"I did four years of my schooling in Calcutta, my matriculation in Benaras, and college in Hyderabad. I first tried my hand at business in Hyderabad, but I soon shifted to Delhi where I opened St Michael Indian Wear, which exports ladies garments to Europe." Emotional about Independence, he says "when I export my products, I feel I'm doing something positive for my country. I love it when my buyers praise the quality of Indian products or when I see Indian goods being sold in good shops abroad".
Varsha Shukla, who was born in Lahore just hours after the Indian tricolour had been unfurled in Delhi, had to be shifted to safety immediately after because of the riots. The family fled to Jalandhar by train, en route to Bombay. But the Bombay climate didn't suit her mother, hence they shifted to Delhi. "I grew up in a very broadminded family which didn't mind girls studying. In fact, my mother wanted me to do English (Hons) but I was determined to do MA (Economics) which I did from Delhi School of Economics. The same broadmindedness is visible in my family by marriage. I tied the knot in 1971. We have two daughters, but I have never been under the usual pressure mothers are put under in India to produce a son."
"I don't know anyone else born on the same date, but it feels great to be born on August 15, 1947. I have been teaching at the Chinmaya Vidyalaya School for 20 years now, and one of the nice things about being born on such a day is that everybody remembers my birthday." So, how is the great day celebrated? "There is no pomp and show, but we prefer to eat out. I work and cook through the year; this is one day I want to put my feet up and relax."
As for Swaraj Jain, he was born in Charkhi Dadri, yes the very same, around 3.30 pm on August 15, 1947. Charkhi Dadri, then called Mahindergarh, was located in Pepsu state. "My father was a professional doctor who left the practice three years before I was born and moved to Delhi to start the family's steel tube business." Like Varsha, Swaraj had to be shifted to the basement of another house soon after his birth because of the rioting in the village. "The house I was born in was targeted because my grandfather had a retinue of Muslim servants. We couldn't send them out as a mark of gratitude for the amount of work they had put in. So, my grandfather shifted me out to a safe-house and, in the process, saved a number of Muslim lives." In 1964, his father and brother set up the first Indian steel plant with Indian machines in Ghaziabad on the outskirts of Delhi in UP. And he joined the plant. "I am proud of having been born on the same day as India. More so because I believe in horoscopes. I strongly believe that the horoscope of India that is Bharat and the horoscope of Swaraj Jain are connected."
His fortunes have traversed unusual ground, much like that of his country
HIS is a story that packs in more quaint twists than Bombay film-scripters can manage. Saviour out to sacrifice himself to science; sex educationist who spilled the secrets in a film; record holder for playing the maximum number of follicularly-challenged roles; sibling of Swami Mahamandaleshwar Gursananan; Bihari-turned Bam-baiya babu—he was the risk Rushdie took with his documentary
The Riddle of Midnight . Purshottam Narayan Mishra, rechristened Manmaujee, was born on August 15, 1947. Zealous siblings doctored his birth certificate to read July 9, '43. "It didn't deter Rush-die," says the actor. "He told me that if I was born on independence day, my birth was a greater truth than what certificates declared."
Truth: That key quality India has lost sight of. "The loss of truth has politicised everything in our world," he mourns. "That is why my personal history bears no similarities with that of the country. Our positions are completely different." But the undercurrents of Manmaujee's fortunes, like that of the country, have traversed unusual ground. Starting off at hometown Itawa in Bihar with a certificate from a Kanpur-based textile institute, it ended with a string of jobs in a multitude of mills in Mumbai. And then Chance moved him to cinema. His first film
Darinda cruelly cut him out in the final edit and then he made his debut in 1973 in "a sex education film called Gupt Gyan ," he admits sheepishly.
"I hold the Limca Record for acting bald in a record number of films—200 to date. And when I willed my body to medical science after my death, that generated a lot of public interest too," smiles the Gandhi-lover. When he is not acting, Manmaujee throws himself into solving the problems of Baptistawadi, the sprawling suburban Andheri tenement where he lives with wife and two sons (One shares his birthday with Indira Gandhi, the other with America's Fourth of July.) For all this, his active interest does not extend to political quarters—Manmaujee looks up to a few Bollywood heroes. He is particularly fond of Dev Anand, who "is a great actor and a greater human being". "Politics
mein gandagi nazar aati hai . Today even the film industry has turned political, it's sad. Because nothing has spread the language of unity as much as films have."
Manmaujee stands firm by the knowledge that the promise of achievement holds as long as a nation and its people have life. "A renewal in this country is imminent. We have always had a history of overcoming troubles.
Is mitti, is hava mein itni taakat hai ," believes Manmaujee, even as he regrets the Indian shift from socialism. But then, change has been a way of life with the actor—whether it be his birthday or his radical choice of profession.
He wanted to rule the skies but when his dream crashed, he started believing in karma
SWAPAN Kumar Basu
borrowed Rs 75 from his parents and joined a flying club. He took his lessons diligently, doing solo runs and logging his hours for a licence. Till the money ran out and his dreams went kaput. The crashlanding of a dream for the son of a food department employee, who worked in Calcutta to keep home fires burning in his native Midnapore, didn't quite shatter him. Basu was, after all, the resilient midnight's child, wasn't he? During his salad days in Midnapore, Basu remembers his father was 'somewhat proud' of his son's birthday—"sometimes, he would call me Subhas after Netaji." But young Basu's earliest heroes were a village elder who had taught Khudiram, the boy revolutionary ("Imagine, he blessed me, a nobody!") and Mahatma Gandhi ("When I came to Calcutta, we stayed near the house he stayed.").
Life in the big bad city turned out to be an unending struggle. Today, the Food Corporation of India clerk exemplifies the spunky Indian middle class survivor: hefty loans have enabled him to marry off his daughter and settle down in a 600-sq-ft apartment. He says he survived the struggle because of his belief in karma.
"Our air is polluted, our water is polluted. Our Independence has also become polluted. Most of us aren't aware of our fundamental rights. We needed to become independent to overcome poverty, but has it been done? Money has become the only deciding factor in society. Even jobs are up for sale," says Basu. "But I'm not hopeless about the future. Isn't change the only constant in a society?"
Stoic about the future, this labour contractor feels no kinship with August 15
FOR a hard-boiled man who makes a living supplying labourers to factories in Bangalore and Mysore, questions about the country or it completing 50 years of existence deserve nothing more than monosyllabic answers. It has been years since R. Doraiswamy's father told him about being born on August 15. But ask him what it feels like to be born on that day and he shrugs, and then volunteers: "Nothing much, no feeling". Born in Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu and settled on the outskirts of Bangalore for 30 years now, all that Doraiswamy seems concerned about is the continuance of the middle-class life he has been leading with his wife and three children. And yes, the power shortage in Karnataka that has resulted in the closure of the steel factory in next door Whitefield to which he was supplying labourers till sometime ago. "I wanted to study, get a government job and do well in life. But pursuing education in those days wasn't easy," says the Class IX dropout. And he hopes his children are able to do what he couldn't: do a BA or B.Com and get jobs. But not being college-educated hasn't come in the way of his reaching a fairly well-off level. Doraiswamy lives in his own house, he's also rented out two shops in the same building. His is the story of a true survivor.
A staunch supporter of the Congress ("I always vote for them"), Doraiswamy thinks the non-Congress parties are to blame for much of the country's woes. Says he: "There never were power shortages when the Congress ran the government at the Centre and in Karnataka." And the power shortages can be crippling in the state. Three steel plants have closed and 200 labourers were laid off. "If the Congress was in power in Karnataka, they would somehow manage to get some power from outside the state," he believes. But so what if there are shortages, "we have to celebrate 50 years of freedom, whatever the achievement." Spoken like a true Indian.
History bypassed his village, making him unaware of the significance
I was born in a poor family and no one in my family was aware of the significance of my birthday. Our village, Arnaguda, in
Andhra Pradesh's Karimnagar district did not have a newspaper or radio or electricity. In a sense, history bypassed us." When
N.R. Devanand was five, his family moved to a nearby coal town of Belampalli, where he trekked 20 km to school. "It was at the Church of South India's Mission High School that I discovered I was born on the same day as our nation," he says. "We were a family of four children and our father somehow steered us through school." Devanand soon left home for the steel city of Bhilai in search of a fortune—with twenty rupees. There he worked as a labourer for the electricity board. "I can proudly say that I did my tiny bit in getting electricity to some parts of India." In 1964, someone told him that the Indian Air Force was recruiting people—in faraway Shillong. His fortunes looked up after he joined the air force. "I was lucky to be inducted into the MiG squadron. I was trained by the Russians. During my stint with the Air Force, I also did a diploma course in aeronautical engineering. I was part of two battles—China and Pakistan. But these events, like my birth, does not make me any more patriotic than the average Indian." For Devanand the high point of Indian politics was the five-year rule of Narasimha Rao and Manmohan Singh, of course. Being a leather-goods exporter, his love for the authors of Indian liberalisation is understandable.
Chores leave her no time to ponder but the memory of a name makes her nostalgic
SHE couldn't have been named anything but Bharathi, or so her veterinarian dad thought. "I was made to realise the significance of August 15 around the time I was four. Everyone, including my parents and grandparents, were happy that I was born on that day." Like most communities from the enterprising coastal belt of Karnataka, Bharathi Kini
too was sent to study. But then she was married off while doing her BA in Bangalore's Mount Carmel College and ever since she has been busy being wife, mother and grandmother. Four years ago, her engineer husband working for the public sector HAL died after a heart attack. And with her engineer son away in Vijayawada and daughter married off in Mumbai, Kini lives with her college-going youngest son. Busy with housework, Kini says she does not find time to contemplate about the country. There are chores to be taken care of and then some TV to watch.
"Both me and my daughter are very patriotic and I would have been so even if I was not born on August 15," says Kini. "I would never leave this country for any other." She thinks Indians are doing well. Her reasons: India was "nothing" in 1947 and today things have changed for the better.
The car enthusiast and the rickshaw-puller are both resilient soldiers
HE was born in the Arabian archipelago of Bahrain. August 15, 1947 was also a Friday, so his friends called him Jumma after the weekday prayers there. "Growing up in a foreign country steeped in a distinctive culture of its own, I was rarely conscious of my roots and the significance of my birthday," says Gautam Banerjee.
For Rajendar Mukhia, who has been trudging the cobbled streets of Calcutta carrying passengers for a living, ruminating on his roots is a luxury he cannot afford. In fact, though he knows he is 50 years old and was born sometime in August, he doesn't remember the exact day. Bereft of land and a stable source of living Mukhia landed up in Dorjipara, a ghetto of out-of-towners in north Calcutta, 10 years ago. The gaunt and wiry man is now one of the last remaining handpulled rickshaw-wallahs of the city. "Migrating to Calcutta," says Mukhia, "makes sense. I make Rs 1,000 a month." Gautam Banerjee also migrated early in life. His father, a medical officer and a royal physician, decided to move his family to India in 1953 and take up a job as a medical officer with a public sector undertaking. "Only then I realised I was born on a special day. I used to see friends hoisting the national flag in the morning, and then flocking to my place in the evening for my birthday party. I was even given a special cake. There was so much of hope in the air," says Banerjee, sitting in his 2,600-sq-ft apartment in Calcutta.
Half-a-century later, those feel-good times are gone forever. After completing a diploma in automobile engineering, he opened a 40-car capacity maintenance workshop near his home, which ran for about 25 years. Three years ago, he shut shop, "totally fed up with the way things were running." In fact, Banerjee's tryst with a car workshop business mirrors his total disenchantment with the way things are run in this country today. "I'm not excited one bit that I'll be touching 50 this August along with independent India. It doesn't mean a bit to me," he says.
For Mukhia, life goes on—he is vaguely aware of the Great Independence Jamboree ahead. One thing that worries him is that his rickshaw-pulling days may be coming to an end as the government cleans up the city.

Measuring Longevity Risk for a Canadian Pension Fund
32 Pages Posted: 29 Aug 2011
Date Written: April 29, 2011
In this paper we consider two particular Canadian defined benefit pension plans to illustrate the importance of adequate mortality forecasting on actuarial liabilities. An employer who sets up an employee defined benefit pension plan promises to periodically pay a certain sum to the participant until death. Both the employee and the employer finance these periodical payments during the beneficiary's career. Any shortcoming of funds in the future is, however, the employer's responsibility. It is therefore essential for the employer to be able to predict with a high degree of confidence the total amount that will be required to cover its obligations to the future retiree. If increases in life expectancy were predictable and taken into consideration when establishing retirement funds, assessing future liabilities would be riskless in that respect. Unfortunately, future survival rates are uncertain. On that account, pensioners may outlive their life expectancies and expose pension funds to longevity risk. We present different tools to hedge this risk and the potential cost for two Canadian public pension plans.

We have developed a technology to turn windows into solar panels
Sunlight more than half consists of infrared light, which we do not see, but we can feel it when it heats up. Our window separates the infrared light from the visible and directs it to a solar battery, thin as a jalousie, which converts it into electricity. Visible light passes on and illuminates the room, but does not heat up. In this way we generate electricity, but do not miss the heat.
We have developed a production technology for perovskite solar cells, where the thickness of the layers is important. Due to the ionization of the droplets, the layers are uniform, which increases the efficiency, and determining the thickness of the layer during printing reduces the rejection rate and reduces the cost Unlike vapor-gas deposition methods, the size is not limited by the camera and the percentage of substances used approaches 95 percent, does not require high temperature. Also with the help of this printer we have developed a transparent solar battery where special printed multi-layer mirrors redirect infrared light from the sun to solar panels, and visible light passes inside

Galaxy Bits Boracay Gambling house Plan, Attempts Alternative Webpage
Galaxy Bits Boracay Gambling house Plan, Attempts Alternative Webpage
Macau casino rider Galaxy Amusement Group provides scrapped strategies to build some sort of $500-million games resort at Boracay all of which will seek an alternate site for a project about similar enormity, an official from Philippine Unit of Tousists told mass media today.
It has become known earlier this year of which Galaxy has partnered Philippine gaming set Leisure together with Resorts Environment Corporation to search for approval to have an integrated vacation resort with a on line casino floor within the popular holidays destination. The two main companies ended up granted some provisional permission from the Filipino Amusement along with Gaming Organization, PAGCOR, a few weeks back and based a 23-hectare site regarding Boracay with regards to resort.
Reports about Galaxy's plan to enter the Philippine gaming and food industry come about at the time whenever Boracay seemed to be making the news bullitains for another good reason. Following a good environmental review, the conclusions of which were created public with February, Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte called the popular visitor hub some 'cesspool' and also undertook techniques to close the item for an eco cleanup.
An order with the island's resolution, settlement was written in The spring. Boracay is actually set to be closed during a period of a few months starting May 26.
During a Tuesday hit conference about Boracay, Travel related Assistant Admin Frederick Frívolo said that Universe has enlightened the Team of Tourist that it would no longer practice plans for a large-scale hotel on the island and will look for another web site across the Uk to develop precisely the same property.More
