Sunrisers Hyderabad 44 for 2 (Ojha 13*) beat Delhi Daredevils 143 for 7 (Karthik 39, Steyn 2-20) by eight wickets (D/L method)
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
On a frustrating evening with four rain stoppages, sensational death bowling and a cameo from Naman Ojha set up an eight-wicket win (Duckworth-Lewis method) for Sunrisers Hyderabad against Delhi Daredevils at the Feroz Shah Kotla. This was the fourth consecutive loss for Daredevils on their home ground in this IPL.
Sunrisers gave away just 22 in the last five overs, restricting Daredevils to 143 for 7, before their own chase was shortened first to 117 off 15 overs, then 97 of 12 overs and finally 43 off five.
Daredevils nearly clawed back into the game, as Rahul Shukla dismissed Aaron Finch with Sunrisers still needing 18 off 10 but Naman Ojha and David Warner ensured there were no further hiccups. Warner put away a full toss and Ojha followed it up with a slog over deep midwicket that brought the equation to six off the last over. Ojha's six off Laxmi Shukla took Sunrisers home with four balls to spare.
Daredevils in many ways ended up paying the price for steadfastly pigeon-holing two of their best batsmen this season as finishers. They were a comfortable 87 for 2 in the ninth over when Mayank Agarwal was dismissed but Daredevils held Duminy back and sent Laxmi Shukla in at No. 5. The allrounder added 55 runs with Dinesh Karthik but the innings struggled for impetus, specially after the first, hour-long rain break. Both Karthik and Shukla fell in the 17th over, leaving Duminy and Kedar Jadhav 18 balls between them to give Daredevils some sort of a finish. Unsurprisingly, they floundered against intelligent bowling from Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Irfan Pathan and Dale Steyn.
Their ending - 11 runs off the last three overs - was in stark contrast to the sprightly start, a result of Kevin Pietersen's cameo in his first IPL appearance as an opener. Pietersen was hesitant early on and in danger of a being run-out a few times, but looked to be getting his groove back when he punched a square drive off Bhuvneshwar Kumar for his first boundary.
After Quinton de Kock fell to Steyn, Pietersen took charge, smacking a six and four each off Karn Sharma and Moises Henriques in successive overs to guide Daredevils to their best Powerplay period of the tournament. Against Mishra, though, he mistimed a drive straight to cover, giving the bowler his 100th IPL wicket.
Mayank Agarwal squandered a start leaving the rebuilding to Dinesh Karthik, who scored 39 off 30. Karthik kept the strike turning early on and made the most of a reprieve at fine leg to scoop Steyn for a six over the same region. He swatted Karan Sharma for a six and a four after the resumption of play but fell to a well-judged catch by Steyn at the long-off boundary.

When should you start? What should you do? The experts tell all
You may abide by Bryan Adams' anthem '18 Till I Die'; your skin, not so much. It's that dreaded revelation when you wake up one morning and notice subtle changes—tiny lines near your eyes, light spots and rough textures on your face—and the phrase "anti-ageing" stares back at you from the mirror.
Don't be intimidated. A simple amendment to your daily skincare regimen can make all the difference and help you retain the youth in your skin. ZA's beauty expert, Megumi Mitsui lays it down.
It all depends from person to person, their lifestyle and skin. The level of oestrogen in your body reaches its peak at the age of 21, so the appropriate time to start would be any time after this age. Today's changing lifestyles and high levels of stress cause the skin to start ageing earlier. For people who have more stressful urban lifestyles, the skin needs some intervention as early as the age of 25.
For Indian skin, the first sign of ageing is age spots—lighter pigments at first, these spots gradually become more intense when not attended to, giving an uneven skin tone.
Dryness is another sign of ageing, when the skin starts losing its ability to self-hydrate and maintain its moisture balance, leading to excessive dry patches.
The pores may also appear more prominent, giving the skin a very rough looking texture. The skin around the eyes is very delicate and wrinkles around the corners of the eyes start showing. Cheeks can look less tight and there can be fine wrinkles around the mouth.
On the lips, there is a marked increase in the number of vertical lines and increase in pigmentation.
Moving away from the face, the hair's volume and thickness is greatly reduced. It starts looking less shiny and patchy.
Nails become brittle and vertical lines are more visible.
A good regimen is a must for both day and night time, avoid skipping any steps.
For daytime: Cleanser, toner, light emulsion or richer cream (based on the skin type) and a good day protector is a must.
For evenings/nights: Women must have at least a three-step regime that includes cleanser, toner, emulsion or richer cream (based on the skin type).
Eyes: Gently apply a moisturising cream or an eye cream. Lightly stretch the wrinkles with your fingers and apply the cream into the creases. Always use your ring finger as the pressure on the skin is the lightest.
Hair: Massage the scalp to improve blood circulation, use the products regularly and in small quantities instead of a lot of product irregularly.
Face: Repeat the four basic steps (cleanse, tone, moisturise, protect) every day. When applying products, make sure to apply them from the centre of the face moving outwards. For the face line, apply from the bottom up for a lifting effect. Ensure you do not apply too much pressure on the skin as it may damage its surface.
There are two items that you cannot forget
A cream with collagen like the Za Perfect Solution Restoring Collagen Cream. Collagen is the protein that gives the skin its elasticity and resilience.
A sunscreen (Vogue recommends the Dermalogica Protection Sport SPF 50) because UV rays are skin's biggest enemy. Even if a person uses multiple anti-ageing products and does not use sunscreen, skincare can become ineffective.
When you are stressed, your hormonal balance becomes upset, making it more difficult for skincare products to work effectively on your skin. Other visible effects of stress are wrinkles on the forehead, sagging around the mouth, lack of skin resilience, and dullness.
When the skin is young, the signs of ageing are not visible as the skin by itself is more resilient and has a natural barrier that helps it rejuvenate and repair to a degree. But with the passage of time or constant lack of skincare, it loses this barrier and resilience, making the signs of ageing more prominent.
Wrinkles and dark pigmentation around the eyes, age spots, sagging skin, prominent expression lines, dryness and dullness can be the results of ignoring your skincare needs. The key is early prevention, not late correction.

Many magic effects released on the market start with " This is one of the greatest secrets in magic and has never been released… until now!" Well, I've always enjoyed writing my blog… until now. It is with a heavy heart that I write this. By now I'm sure the everyone has heard about Hank Lee. When I heard about it on Saturday I was in complete shock. But more than shock the feeling I was left with was sadness. We've known Hank for 35 years. We've had 19 Magic Montreal Conventions and I think he was at every one. Maybe he missed one or two. I don't remember. He started Hank Lee's Magic factory about a year before we started Perfect Magic. We were friends. Phil stayed at his house in Boston. We were one of the few magic people that were invited to his wedding, which we attended. We were friends.
When Dave Cresey threatened to walk out of a Magie Montreal Convention when I wouldn't let him smoke in the dealers' room, Hank went over to Phil and said, "I know Dave is supposed to be on the show today. I'll gladly fill in for him if you need me".
This is why its so sad. You think you know someone. I don't know what trouble he was in or why he did what he did, how he got caught up in it. I guess we'll never know that part.

GET YOUR holiday plans back on TRACK by staying at this former station master's house for as little as £9 per person per night.
Incredible images show the exterior of the station house and the remaining platform at the train tracks.
Other stunning shots show the surprisingly welcoming interior of the house with cosy living rooms, spacious bedrooms and a large, modern kitchen.
Station House is located at Tal-y-Cafn near Conwy in Wales and can be rented on www.cottages.com for £252 for a week's stay. The property sleeps four, meaning it would only cost £9 per night for each guest.
"This delightful detached holiday property was once the station master's house at Tal-y-Cafn station, which is still open as a request stop on the branch line to Blaenau Ffestiniog," states the listing.
"There are six trains each way per day on this line and trains call at the station between 5.30am and 9.15pm. Sleeping four people, it makes a great base for exploring the area where you can catch the train to Llandudno, Betws-y-Coed or Blaenau Ffestiniog.
"There's a gastro pub just 50 yards away serving delicious Welsh produce, and the Bodnant Welsh Food Centre is within walking distance with a café, restaurant and farm shop which is well worth a visit.
"The famous Bodnant Garden (National Trust) is just a little further away and has 80 acres of stunning gardens to explore, together with the plant centre and craft units. Guests can watch surfers whilst enjoying a coffee nearby at the incredible Surf Snowdonia at Dolgarrog.
"The Victorian resort of Llandudno offers a great selection of shops, the Venue Cymru theatre, fantastic beaches, the Great Orme headland with Bronze Age copper mines, the UK's only cable operated tramway and the UK's longest cable car ride, together with fantastic views.
"You can walk the town walls at historic Conwy, imagine yourself capturing Conwy Castle (a World Heritage Site), or stroll along the quay. At Betws-y-Coed adrenaline junkies can try Zip World Fforest with the amazing Fforest Coaster, or you can take a walk in the leafy Gwydir Forest Park.
"At the end of the line at Blaenau Ffestiniog you can either catch a Ffestiniog Railway steam train on the spectacular journey to the coast at Porthmadog, or visit Bounce Below, where you can bounce away come rain or shine on trampoline nets deep inside an old slate mine. Beach 8 miles. Shop 3 miles, pub and restaurant 40 yards."

The new year is just around the corner but before you cheer for the beginning of 2019, check with your insurance company and your dentist office. You may have remaining benefits that could end up wasted.
While your employer's insurance company will affect what benefits are available to you every year, most benefits typically expire December 31st.
Most insurance companies offer free and significantly reduced pricing on preventative care visits as part of their dental coverage.
Most dental insurance companies provide for two, complimentary teeth cleanings per year as part of your dental insurance plan.
Studies show your personal oral hygiene is important, but so are regular visits to the dentist office. A dental hygienist or dentist will be able to identify problem spots that you have yet to detect. It's recommended that you visit your dentist office at least once a year, but preferably at least twice.
This is an account that is likely available through your employer. You are eligible to set aside money from your paycheck, tax-free, and put those funds into your FSA account. You can only use your FSA for health care costs. Unlike a health savings account (HSA), you must spend what's in your FSA.
If there is any money that is left over in your FSA, it does not roll over into the next year. You can spend the money on any medical-related expenses such as medication, first aid, or certain travel items. The FSA store has a full list of FSA accepted items.
"There are a lot of patients who are booking their appointments this month. If for some reason you're unable to get an appointment with us before January 1st, make an appointment right after the New Year," said Dr. Jason Kboudi, Advanced Smile Care. "Remember, 2019 starts a new year of dental benefits with your insurance provider. January is a great time of year to get a head start on your dental care."
Extraordinary care and top-tier comfort for our patients represent foundational principles at Advanced Smile Care. For nearly 40-years, our team led by Dr. Jason Kboudi, DDS, has been San Antonio's premier dental practice for creating transformational smiles. Many dentists are limited by the services they provide. They don't have the expertise to offer specialized services. But at Advanced Smile Care, we do it all, whether it be a full-smile makeover, dental implants, dentures or sedation to get you through your treatment. Whether you need a cavity filled or a full set of dental implants, cosmetic treatment or require sedation dentistry, our team promises to provide you with the care you deserve. As we like to say, "It shouldn't hurt to smile."

From the November 10, 2010 staff report Planning Commission:
(Please note: the typos are mine. I do not have the software to copy the text of pdf files. )
Recommend to the City Council that no changes be made to the May 2010 adopted ESR Zoning Regulations.
On May 4, 2010 the City Council held second reading and adopted modifications to the Zoning Regulations for the ESR District recommended by the Planning Commission, with some minor modifications related to resident concerns (see further discussion below and Section 23D.24, ESR Zoning Ordinance provisions, Attachment 2).
At the May 4 meeting, two community members raised concerns about the proposed definition in the ordinance of "sleeping area" and subsequently submitted the attached May 26,2010 letter (from Nigel Guest and Gene Bernardi) and a subsequent letter on October 13, 2010. In addition to repeating some of the earlier concerns, the October 13, 2010 recommends other changes that would make it easier to rent rooms than permitted under the previous ordinance or the recently adopted ordiance.
The underlying intent of the ESR modifications is to limit as much as possible the expansion of existing structures in a manner could increase the number of people living on the hill, especially the addition of rooms that can be used as bedrooms. Staff did so by establishing stringent parking requirements and a requirement for approval of an Administrative Use Permit (AUP) to create a "bedroom", broadly defined as any area that can be used for sleeping. Staff used this broad definition to discourage people from labeling additions as "libraries," "media rooms," "offices," etc., in order to avoid the parking and AUP requirement. The two objecting community members felt that having a unique definitiom of "bedroom" solely for Panoramic Hill would make it more difficult to interpret and apply Zoning Ordinance and was inappropriate.
The City Councio adopted the ESR revisions without change from the final Staff recommendation. However, Council members also noted a concern with adopting unusual provisions in the Zoning Ordinance that would make it an even more complicated document to implement and requested that the Planning Commission further consider this issue.
As discussed in previous reports to the Planning Commission, Staff initiated and carried forward changes to the ESR District to address the extremetly dangerous conditions on the Hill. Because of substandard access, steep slopes, inadequate water pressure and proximity to the Hayward Fault and vegetated wildlands, the neighborhood is exceptionally vulnerable to severe damage or ddestruction from fire and earthquake, emergency access and eegresson substandard road will be highly constrained. People seeking to leave a dangerous condition would conflict with emergency personnel trying to addres it or trying to reach others who need help to leave. Even under normal conditions, vehicles responding to medical emergencies have been impeded by commercial vehicles, trash collectiontrucks and illegally parked vehicles. Existing sewer and drainage intrastructure is also substandard.
As noted in the Council report of April 24, 2010:
From the beginning of the process to modify the ordinance, staff has been clear of our approach: to adopt strict standards that curtail development on Panoramic hill so that as few additional people as possible are placed at risk until the underlying infrastructure issues are addressed.
In order to accomplish this goal, Staff proposed stringent permit and parking requirements on adding space that could be used as bedrooms. Staff anticipated applicatnts seeking to avoid these requirements by labeling additions not as bedrooms, such as dens, libraries, etc. To address this issue, Staff proposed a very broad defition of bedroom as any space that can be used for "sleeping." As noted in a January 2010 City Council report, the then proposed (now adopted ) regulations:
Lowers the threshold for discretionary review of residential additions and requires an AUP for any alteration to create additional rooms that can be used for sleeping. Staff is recommending "room used for sleeping" rather than the more typical "bedroom." Because Staff is proposing strit enforcement of parking requirements for sleeping rooms, if the more typical "bedroom " were used in the ordinance, it is very likely that we would see a signifiant increase in the number of people applying to add a "den," "office," "library" or something similar, although the room will be used as a bedroom. There is no perfect defintion that will necessarily avoid the problem, but the intent is clear, and the broad definition will close much of this typical loophole.
When we met in February, 2010 with representatives of the Panoramic Hill Neighborhood Association (not includingthe two parties currently objecting to the ordinance), they requested some additional flexibility for converting existing space in a bedroom when family circumstances changed, without the need to meet parking requirements. To address this concern, Staff proposed to the City Council a revision to the draft ordinance seen by the Planning Commision that would allow for existing property owners to modify existing living space to add nor more than one bedroom without triggering additional parking requirements. Although Staff had discomfort with allowing any changes to the ordinance recommended by the Planning Commission that could increase the number of bedrooms, Staff felt the change requested by the Association would lead to relatively few new bedrooms, and allowing for some reasonable flexibility. The Council adopted this change as part of the ESR modifications.
As noted earlier, at the second reading ot the ordinance, two people raised an additional issue in regard to the broad defintion of bedroom. Although the Council adopted the ordinance as proposed, they referred this issue back to the Planning Commission, noting a concern with adding to an already overly-specific difficult to use Zoning Ordinance.
On May 27, 2010 Staff (Dan Marks and Vivian Kahn) met with Mr. Nigel Guest and Ms. Gene Bernardi to discuss the concerns they had raised at the Council. Their letter of May 26, 2010 setting forth those concerns is attached. mr. Guest nd Ms,. Bernardi noted the following issues:
The definition of "bedroom" appears to be unique and arbitrary. This is a word that is in extremely common use, and is defined in Webster's Dictionary as a rom furnished with a bed and intended primarily for sleeping.
New parking requirements should be required for new additions only and should not apply to the existing structure which is "grandfathered in."
In their subsequent October 13, 2010 letter, Mr. Guest and Ms. Bernardi amplify their original concerns and recommend further changes that would allow renting of rooms more easily than was permitted under the former or current ordinance. Please note that to the best of our knowledge, these changes in permitted use were not referred by the City Council.
Mr. Guest and Ms. Bernardi have also recommended several other changes to the ordinance, which they believe would clarify the ordinance or address what they consider to be inconsistencies or unintended consequences.
As staff indicated to Mr. Guest and Ms. Bernardi at the end of our meeting in May, we cannot recommend changes to the ordinance, because, in Staff's view, their requested changes would not be consistent with the intent. Although Staff certainly appreciates the need to not add further complexity to the City's Zoning Ordinance, we believe that in this unusual instance – and for this unique area of the City – it is warrented.Although the adopted definition of "sleeping space" is not perfect, it is similar to definitions used in some other cities, and is consistent with language in the Building Code that establishes minimum standards (size, exiting, etc.) for areas that can be used for sleeping. It allows Staff much greater discretion to apply the "duck test" for additions tha, while labeled one thing, can clearly be used for another purpose.
Similarly, in regard to the second point above, the intent of the ordinance is specifically to require that any propery owner requesting an addition of a new bedroom be required to meet the underlying parking requirement for the district for the structure – and not grandfather in existing substandard parking conditions. Although Berkeley tends to be be more lenient than many jurisdictions in allowing modifications to no-conforming structures, it is common practice in other communities to require non-conforming buildings to meet all current standards when a significant addition is approved. We fully recognize that in Panoramic Hill, meeting the underlying parking requirements would be very difficult for most structures. The requirement is intentional: it establishes a high hurdle for thosw wishing to add "sleeping rooms."
In response to the Octobe 13 letter, staff offers the following.
Comment 1.2: "Moving an interior wall to cerate a bedroom would require a Use Permit."
Response: An alteration to create a bedroom from exiwsting floor area will require approval of an AUP. The division of existing habitable space to create one bedroom will not, however, require additional parking as long as the proeprty is in a single family use.
Comment 1.3:(1): Other jurisdictions' ordinances suport the need to modify the ESR definition of sleeping room.
Response: in staff's view, the ordinances of other jurisdictions simply confirm that they are attempting to address the same problem that City of Berkeley staff identified: calling rooms different names to avoid requirements (usually parking requirements).
Comment: All 1.3 (2): All dining rooms are bedrooms.
Response: Not all dining rooms are sleeping spaces. Sleeping spaces must have exiting (windows) and meet other requirements under the California Building Code. Staff believes it is highly unlikely that many homes in the District will be adding dining rooms – and, if the do, Staff believes they can be designed in such as manner as to not be defined as bedrooms (open to the living room or kitchen would be one means). As noted avove, there is no perfect definition and Staff will have to exercise some discretion in making determinations.
Comment 2.1: Modify requirements related to non-resident employees or consumers.
Response: The provision barring customer visits has been in the ESR regulations for about 20 years. The City Councio did not refer the requirements related to home occupations for Planning Commission review.
Comment 2.3: Modify Uses Permitted regarding rental of rooms with a Use Permit.
Response: this was not referred by the City Council. The ESR regulations continue to allow rental of a dwelling unit to a single household and to require approval of a Use Permit to allow rental of rooms to additional households or individuals.
Comment 2.3: Modify CEQA finding
Response: Alterations to create bedrooms and residential additions that are the lesser of 10% of the lot area or 20 sauare feet are categorically exempt from enfironmental review but, as CEQA provides, may require environmental review under certain circumstances.
As noted above, Mr. Guest and Ms. Bernardi suggest other changes that they believe would clarify the ordiannce. Staff disagrees. Ordinance language is always subject to reasonable interpretation and applicaiton, and staff believes that in each instance, the intent is clear and the ordinance language is sufficiently clear to relay that intent. In addition, Staff is preparing a "frequently asked quesions" information sheet for the ESR zoning to be made available to staff and the public. Staff also believes that some of the changes recommended by Mr. Guest and Ms. Bernardi are inconsistent with the intent of the ordinance.
Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission recommend to the Council that it make no further changes to the ESR ordinance."
I, the author of what is below, am not nearly as polite as Dan Marks. It is my take on what happened. That Berkeley Staff has finally recognized the problems of Panoramic Hill and is making needed changes is terrific. It means we do not have to continually try to educate the city about our problems. We should be helping, not hindering their attempts to make this neighborhood safer. I began trying in 1986. My scientist mother, Della Reid, M.S. began trying when the PHA was formed in 1948. The next necessary project is educating Oakland.
Nigel Guest clearly does not understand zoning. Most of the properties on Panoramic hill have been non-conforming from the time the Environmental Saftey – Residential zoning came into effect in the 1970s. The zoning is not retroactive. That means that no property owner has to make their non-conforming house, duplex, tri-plex or apartment building conform with the changes unless that owner makes specific changes. Planning Director Dan Marks and consultant planner Vivian Kahn were very clear as to the reasons for the ehanced defintion of bedroom in the new Environmental Safety – Residential regulations which is now the zoning law for the Berkeley section of Panoramic Hill. It is to not increase the number of people who are residing in this dangerous neighborhood that has only one access road. The Panoramic Hill Association wrote its approval of the changes before the first reading of the revised ES-R ordinance. It is listed on Berkeley council website for April 27, 2010, Item 20: Panoramic Hill (ESR) Zoning Ordinance Revision Michael Kelly, on behalf of the Panoramic Hill Association (This letter on PHA letterhead, dated the day of the council hearing, April 27, 2010, reads: " Dear Mayor Bates and City Council, I am writing on behalf of the Panoramic Hill Association in support of the proposed revisionsto the Environmental Safety Residential (ESR) ordinance. Our Board of Directors voted unanimously in favor of these revisions at our Board meeting on April 20, 2010. Although the ordinance still contains some elements which are of concern to some residents, the revisions represent a positive step forward in addressing the safety and development pressures in this neighborhood. We thank you and the planning staff for all the work that has been done on this issue." Sincerely, Michael Kelly, President, PHA)
Nigel Guest has been renting rooms in his house illegally and he needs to apply for a permit. He is trying to rally people to start screaming to change the changes that now have been years in the making so that he does not have to do what he should have done years ago.
Nigel Guest also misunderstood the discussion at the Planning Commission about restricting parking permits. The Planning Commission can do nothing except ask the council to refer the matter to the Transportation Commission. But the issue in front of the Planning Commission is ONLY the definition of bedroom.
The issue that the city council referred to the Planning Commission was only the enhanced defintion of bedroom. And the Planning Commissioners now have the opportunity to discuss the matter with the council members who appointed them.
Nigel will try to make sure the issue never ever goes away and he will quote all the British figures he can to support his position.
There is an allegation below that I have included the wrong letter from the PHA, but that assertion is false.

William Clinton
William Jefferson Clinton
42nd President of the United States
William, or Bill, Jefferson Blythe III was born on August 19, 1946, in the small town of Hope, Arkansas. He was named after his father, William Jefferson Blythe II, who had been killed in a car accident just three months before his son was born. Needing to find a way to support herself and her new child, Bill?s mother, Virginia Cassidy Blythe, moved to New Orleans, Louisiana, to study nursing. Bill stayed with his grandparents in Hope. There he was surrounded by many relatives who gave him love and support and who played a significant role in his upbringing.
His mother returned from New Orleans with her nursing degree in 1950, when her son was four years old. Later that same year, she married an automobile salesman named Roger Clinton. When Bill was seven years old, the family moved to Hot Springs, Arkansas. Known for its natural mineral hot springs, and its scenic county, Hot Springs was bigger than Hope and offered better employment opportunities. Roger received a higher paying job, as a service manager for his brothers car dealer-ship and Virginia was able to find a better job as a nurse. In 1956,

What a crazy week in the library! As you all know, next week is our last week before Winter Break. As SCDS winds down 2015, we had to take a moment to appreciate the finer activities in life: arts and crafts. Particularly, Winter Crafts!
Ms. Melinson invited Middle School advisories this week to make our annual winter craft…we're talking snowflakes galore! There were buttons, popsicle sticks, and paper snowflakes flying all over the library! Well, not really. Because that would get a little messy. There were minor glue disasters, but no one was injured and overall the classes were a huge success.
We also had our second to last Book Club of 2015 and it was a special one: we discussed Go Set a Watchman, Harper Lee's "sequel" to To Kill A Mockingbird. Our Mockingbird expert, Ms. LaMay, offered her opinions about the book, and a lively discussion was had by all; read more about that book club here.
Throughout the week, Ms. Burns' and Mr. Whited's 6th Grade Science classes joined us to do research for their constellation projects. Way to go, guys!
Sophomores also spent time in the library on Friday to work on their Sophomore Projects. They learned how to make note cards and research databases that would help them with their topics.

Interview | Ashish Joshi
DTU Times interviewed Ashish Joshi, CEO of Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd., who was invited as a speaker at TEDxDTU'19.
You were a part of the IEEE during your engineering and also a member of the Business Forum during your post-graduation days in London. How important a role do you think such societies play in the college days?
These are a very important part of one's college life. You gain leadership qualities from roles such as these. During my engineering, we used to organise an event of the electrical department called 'Expressions'. One year we decided not to reach out to sponsors for monetary support but to sell out stall space for computer parts' manufacturers as computer tech was the hot topic at that time. We thought differently and succeeded in organizing an event for the department. Incidents like these teach you leadership at a young age, so being part of these events is very important in terms of how it shapes your character going forward.
How did you discover your passion for motorcycles and got interested in the automotive industry?
As a young kid being surrounded by all sorts of army vehicles piqued my interest in the field of motorcycles. I was taught how to ride a motorcycle when I was 13 got into trouble at home for it. I have always felt a connection with the roads when I am on a motorcycle. The wind behind your ears and sweeping over your face as you go on a ride is one of the best feelings you can have. I still just get on a bike and go for a 20-30 km ride to take a break and relax on the road. Motorcycles are a great means for destressing for me and are very close to my heart. It is not about riding fast but about what you feel at that point of time and the moods you go through. It is about letting go. I always come back clear headed after a ride.
How do you plan to compete with the major players such as Royal Enfield that are already established in India? How do Jawa motorcycles stand out?
Jawa Motorcycles is a design-based brand. Our product speaks for us. As far as competing with another brand goes, I am not sure we would be competing with them. Jawa is a brand in itself and it is more than about motorcycles. It connects to that nostalgia and emotional part from your past or that story that is told to you by your grandfather and you want to experience it yourself. It is relevant for millennials as for them authencity and form are big factors. If it looks good with an authentic story then you can connect to it at a nostalgic level.
What other skills do you think are necessary for an engineer in life apart from technical knowledge?
Attitude is key. Attitude is not only how you communicate with others but qualities such as bravery and fearlessness towards challenges. When you stop taking no for an answer, that is the right attitude needed in life. You should be able to handle the criticism and be fearless if you want to work with any good corporation. I usually make my new recruits go through all sorts of challenges to make them fearless and test them. You should have technical skills but you can always study about a subject nowadays. Everybody did not have access to the same knowledge some years back but today the scene is quite different. What you do with the knowledge you have is what is most important. Most people today want the easy way out with lesser hours and good pay in IT jobs. But a decade down the line all your sharpness is dulled and dimmed and you don't know much about how an industry works out side of your monitor. We need our engineering graduates to bring about a culture of manufacturing products. We should not just end up being the backyard boys for the western countries who use us as the service providers for the rest of the world or working in call centres for foreign companies.
I also advise you to have an audacious goal in life. Unless you can see a vision for yourself, you will not be able to plan a path for yourself. Don't get bogged down with the nitty-gritties of life. People may doubt you, but that needs to be your fuel. It might not be easy but remember that if it were, everybody would be doing it.
Engineering graduates nowadays are more interested in innovating things and the field of entrepreneurship. But are often led down by the lack of management skills. How do you think an engineer should acquire the required business skills for a startup?
Every company is different and requires different skills, but what is necessary for a start up is a good dose of realism. An entrepreneur should be willing to put everything on the line. If you can't put in the effort and lead by example people will not follow you. Every start up might have a brilliant idea but one also needs to focus on the execution. What happens when the seed money behind the idea runs out? If you do not plan out the best possible execution of the idea then it proves fatal for the company. This is the differentiating factor for start-ups. The message for engineers is that just don't go with the idea but also plan out the execution.

mandatory training requirements
Training and development – your organization needs a plan!
Training employees is a compliance issue—even if your organization is not in Quebec. In Quebec organizations are legislated to direct 1 percent of total payroll to be allocated to eligible training costs.
Mandatory awareness training for Ontario workers and supervisors as of July 2014!
Christmas has come early for health and safety professionals in Ontario, with the gift of a new law, Regulation 297/13 added to the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) and filed on November 14, 2013. The regulation is the first of its kind in Canada and mandates that all workers and supervisors must complete basic health and safety awareness training.
Going deeper to go higher: Getting the most out of in-service training for employees and employers
September traditionally marks back to school for kids, and many employees are also starting new courses and maintaining in-service training requirements. For most employers vacation schedules are calming down, as managers are revving up production, sales, vision and values kick-offs, quality improvement programs, client-centered programs and increased service delivery. Underpinning the organizational capacity to deliver its desired goals is training.

This is a bowl of ramen whose spice level goes up to 20. But your mouth won't feel a thing.
I'm a great fan of Anonymous Paul, part of the triumvirate over at the great website Table For Three, Please, one of the few local food blogs I read. I admire Paul's photography skills and his talent as a jewelry designer – one day, I'm going to buy one of his pieces and match it with a killer outfit and heels.
What I value most about Paul (aside from the fact that he's a loyal DCF reader) are his food recommendations. He manages to sniff out these finds and then he promptly tells me about them. Now that's my definition of a friend!
Urameshi-Ya is one of Paul's finds. "Lori, there's this place in Little Tokyo that serves ramen," his text goes. "And you can choose the spice level you want."
Spice level. Ah, now there's something I can take on. Having grown up in Indonesia, my spice threshold is a lot higher than the average person's. So the idea of a bowl of ramen with adjustable spice levels cranks my excitement up somewhere into the stratosphere.
As a restaurant, Urameshi-Ya is very Japanese, that is – utilitarian and sectioned in private partitions with the gratuitous bookshelf bulging with Japanese manga books. My sidekick K, and I remove our shoes before we crouch and sit on cushion-lined benches at a table with a waiting and ready brazier for cooking yakiniku (Korean-style cook-it-yourself meats), which is really what Urameshi-Ya specializes in.
So on the menu, the acclaimed or dreaded – depending on one's outlook – 20 spice-level ramen is given rather desultory treatment: Level 1 ~ Level 20 (P280). There are no red flags, no warning signs (HOT! HOT!), nothing of the sort.
I ask the server what spice level she recommends for a regular chili-head like myself. "4, ma'am," is the surprising reply. My jaw involuntarily drops and I hear it hit the table with a dull thunk. 4? Just 4??! Thus ensues some negotiating and quibbling on my part – my machismo just will not take a Level 4 sitting down – what am I, a wimp? Hmph. To her credit, the server remains calm all throughout. I assume she's had much experience with egos saturated with capsaicin, hotheads like myself who see a Level 20 as a chance to bring it on.
And when the bowl of Level 4 ramen is indeed brought on, I must say that my much-vaunted ego takes a bruising, just on looks alone. This sucker looks scary. K and I simultaneously lean over the bowl and peer down. A venerable wave of silence passes between us.
Finally, I say something. "What color would you call that? Fiery red?"
K, who is as much of a lover of words as I am, replies, "Persimmon."
"Florid," I murmur thoughtfully then wave my hand dismissively. "Forget fiery, this looks furious, K!" She grins.
The rather benign-sounding "Level 4," looks anything but. Coils of yellow soba tangled in threads of cooked egg hold up little hills of chili powder, vermilion grains vanishing, sinking under soup. This dish is ammunition, an ignition to start mouth fires and incite heated thoughts.
Or so I hope.
In reality, this dish is a dud, spice-wise. Though my brain circuits have practically overloaded from the visions I have of myself wet with sweat and breathing fire because of "Level 4," there's no fire in this visual inferno. Don't get me wrong, the broth is good, a syncopation of salt and umami, but it's quickly overshadowed by the chili powder. I'd like to say that it's shichimi togarashi, the seven-flavor chili pepper mix made ubiquitous by the S&B brand but it's not. In taste, it's more like raw paprika with a bite of heat in back. When I ask the server to bring my soup up to Level 6, she just brings me more of the powder.
But more isn't often better. When added to the soup, the powder only succeeds in thickening the broth but is a futile attempt to douse my desire for fire. Soon, I've got what K calls a "ramen stew" because the chili powder has sucked up all the liquid. I soon ditch my soup spoon and eat the rest with chopsticks. This is spice for sissies.
Urameshi-Ya has other "no-level" ramens, just straight-up soups for the more straightforward: syouyou (soyu or soy sauce), sio (salt), and miso (all P200) which is what K has. Hot and full of delightful little things like bean sprouts, chopped leeks, and kernels of corn, it's a milder version of the miso ramen that the Ramen Nazi serves at Ukokkei.
It's the sesame seeds and grains of salt that really make this pork pop.
I recommend trying the yakiniku specialties since Urameshi-Ya does them so well. I especially like the buta bara (pork belly; P400) that K and I have great fun grilling. When I'm in the mood for it, I really enjoy at-table cooking; there's nothing like the spiritedness it evokes with people who appreciate food as much as I do. If you get the buta bara, grill it – don't overcook! and then spritz some of the lemon juice on it. The pork's seasoning plays off the citrus tang quite nicely followed by the eye-rolling intoxication that only pork belly can produce.
Now I've got to get to Paul, my fellow chili-head, and arrange for us to go to Urameshi-Ya so we can attack Level 20 together.

There Are No Grandchildren
Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." (Luke 18:16) Children have a wonderful faith. It's simple and easy. For the most part if you love Jesus your young children will love Jesus too. However, they still need to have a real faith built on relationship with God that is meaningful to them. The entrance into the kingdom is being born again. And your children need to be led into that.

24 Secrets to Great Parenting
Here's an opportunity to read the first chapter of 24 Secrets to Great Parenting.
The First Word
Do you remember when you first decided to have children? You had probably been broody for a while. Come on guys even my sons have admitted to being broody! Everywhere you looked there were mothers with newborns in cute little outfits, hand knitted jumpers and sweet little bonnets. You made the fatal mistake of holding your friend's little ones. Did you know that babies are contagious? Particularly to women! That's right! I have watched it happen over and over again. A young woman holding a friend's baby will vehemently deny that there is any possibility that she and her partner are going to have children. Countless times I have witnessed this denial and then, the soon to follow announcement of pregnancy. (To read more click here)

Usually, airlines allow one carry-on and one personal item onboard. While the rules for carry-ons are pretty clear, often they're not for personal items.
And because of that, a lot of passengers don't really know what exactly a personal item is. Heck, even before writing this article, I wasn't too sure. I just used my laptop backpack and called it a day.
Well, fear no more, because in this article I'll:
- Explain exactly what is a personal item
- Give a list of allowed personal items
- Tell you what items can be taken in addition to personal items and carry-ons, free of charge
- Explain how the rules differ between the largest airlines (Southwest, Delta, American Airlines, United, and Air Canada)
- Cover a few other common questions about personal items
What Is a Personal Item?
A personal item is a small bag, purse, backpack, or a similar item that fits under the passenger's front seat. They're free to bring on most airlines without any additional fees. Other airlines may call it hand luggage, a personal article, or a personal bag, but essentially it's the same thing.
Usually, personal items will need to fit in these measurements:
Width: 6-9 inches;
Height: 10-14 inches;
Length: 17-18.5 inches;
Note: Rules vary from airline to airline, so make sure to check your specific airline before boarding. We've covered Southwest, Delta, United, American Airlines, and Canada Air down below.
What Is the Difference Between a Personal Item and a Carry-On?
Carry-ons are slightly larger than personal items and have different size and weight restrictions. While carry-ons need to fit in the overhead compartment, personal items need to be small enough to fit under the passenger's front seat.
For instance, on Southwest Airlines, a personal item shouldn't exceed 18.5 x 13.5 x 8.5 inches, while carry-ons can be up to 24 x 16 x 10 inches.
Read Next: The Ultimate Luggage Size Guide
Can a Backpack Be Used as a Personal Item?
Yes, a backpack can be used as a personal item (If it complies with the size requirements and fits under the airplane's front seat.)
Some airlines, like Southwest and American Airlines, haven't stated anywhere on their websites that backpacks can be used as personal items, which is why so many people are frustrated. By digging around, I found out that 99% of the time people didn't have any problems with them. You'll be allowed to use a backpack as a personal item on both airlines.
Personally, I've always used my laptop backpack as my personal item, even with the strict European airlines. I've never had any incidents or difficulties with this.
Just make sure to use a backpack that fits under the front seat and isn't packed too full.
Read Next: Different Types of Backpacks Compared: Which One Is for You?
Things That Can Be Used as Personal Items
- Shoulder bags
- Purses
- Laptop bags
- Briefcases
- Backpacks (I use the Matein laptop backpack.)
- Cameras
- Food containers
- Handbags
- Totes
- Suitcases (Just make sure to get something small, like the Travelon wheeled underseat carry-on.)
- Duffels (Although a bit large, the Travelpro Maxlite 5 under seat duffel is pretty good.)
- Garment bags
- Pet carriers
- Musical instruments
- Sports instruments, like tennis, squash or badminton racquets
Generally, you can take almost anything that's within the personal item size limit and allowed onboard. For any weird, uncommon objects, it's better to call up the airline first and ask.
Things That Are Not Counted as Personal Items
Some items are not counted as carry-ons or personal items. You'll be able to bring them onboard in addition, free of charge.
Here are the most common items that airlines don't count as personal items or carry-ons:
- Assistive devices for the disabled
- Jackets
- Umbrellas
- Diapers
- Other wearable clothes
- Walking canes
- Food in disposable containers meant to consume on the airplane
- Child restraint seats
- Strollers
- Duty-free items
- Reading materials
- Cameras (some airlines consider cameras as personal items, while others don't.)
- Pet carriers (Some airlines consider pet carriers as personal items, while others don't.)
Note: These vary between airlines, so make sure to check with the airline first. But in general, assistive devices, duty-free items, clothing, and umbrellas are always free to carry in addition to your carry-on and personal items.
Personal Item Rules on Different Airlines
I've personally experienced a situation where the person in front of me was arguing with an airline staff member whether a small wheeled suitcase should be considered a personal item. He had two-wheeled suitcases, and one was within the personal item limits. In the end, the airline made him check the larger bag in, and counted the smaller bag as a carry-on because that's their policy.
That's why you should always learn the airline's personal items rules before boarding the flight. Here I've summarized them for the five most popular airlines in North America.
Southwest Airlines Personal Item Rules
Counted as personal items: purses, briefcases, laptop bags, pet carriers, cameras, food containers. Backpacks aren't officially included, but most people have said that they'll also accept backpacks within the size limits.
Size requirements: 18.5 x 13.5 x 8.5 inches
Delta Airlines Personal Item Rules
Counted as personal items: purses, briefcases, camera bags, diaper bags, laptop bags, and all other items that fit under the front seat.
Size requirements: not mentioned, but should fit under the front seat.
United Airlines Personal Item Rules
Counted as personal items: shoulder bags, purses, laptop bags, and all other items within the size limits.
Size requirements: 17 x 10 x 9 inches
American Airlines Personal Item Rules
Counted as personal items: purses, small handbags. Although backpacks and other items aren't officially mentioned on their site, most people have successfully used backpacks, totes, and smaller suitcases within the size restrictions as personal items.
Size requirements: 18 x 14 x 8 inches
Air Canada Personal Item Rules
Counted as personal items: suitcases, roller bags, backpacks, briefcases, laptops, pet containers, duty-free items, sports racquets, musical instruments, cameras, diplomatic bags, garment bags.
Size requirements: 17 x 13 x 6 inches
What Should You Pack Inside a Personal Item?
If you're allowed to bring a carry-on and a personal item, your carry-on will be in the overhead compartment, and your personal item under the front seat. So you should pack all the necessities in your personal item, instead of the carry-on, because it's more accessible.
Here's precisely what you should be packing:
- Documents. Pack your passport, visa, boarding passes, tickets, reservations, wallet, e.t.c.
- Items for in-flight entertainment. Pack whatever will make your flight more bearable: books, an e-reader, Bluetooth headphones, a tablet, a laptop, a power bank, e.t.c. Don't forget the chargers.
- Stuff that will help you stay relaxed. For instance, comfy socks, pajamas, a head mask, a neck-pillow, e.t.c.
- Snacks. Some people don't know this, but you can freely pack snacks inside your on-flight bags. Sweets, sandwiches, cookies, fruits, e.t.c. This way you can also save some money by avoiding expensive airline meals. You should finish perishables and organics before you arrive because you likely won't be allowed to clear the customs with them.
- Valuable or fragile items. These can get broken or stolen inside your checked luggage, so it's advised to keep them next to you at all times. Also, make sure to pack your fragile items correctly, so they don't get broken.
- Toiletries and medicine. It would be a good idea to pack some pain-killers, napkins, eye drops, and other medication that you might need urgently.
And avoid packing these items in your personal bag:
- Knives and other sharp objects. Instead, pack them in your checked luggage.
- Liquids over 100ml / 3.4 oz
- Alcoholic beverages
- Firearms (pretty obvious, but I'll leave it here anyway.)
If you need more packing tips, make sure to read our 75 packing tips for international travel.
Can a Personal Item Have Wheels?
On most airlines, suitcases can be used as personal items if they fit under the front seat, regardless if they have wheels or not.
However, I've personally experienced a situation where an airline denied using a rolling suitcase as a personal item. I dug around the internet and found out I'm not the only one. While some people have used them as personal items numerous times, some have been denied.
On Delta, American Airlines, and Canada Air, you should be safe to use rolling bags as personal items, but on other airlines, you might be denied.
Do Personal Items Have Weight Limits?
Most of the time, personal items don't have any weight restrictions. However, some airlines do a combination of both: For instance, your carry-on and personal item can't weigh more than 22 lbs combined.
Most domestic flights won't have any weight limits for carry-ons and personal items, but international ones will. So make sure to check with your airline before international flights.
As a rule of thumb, your personal item shouldn't be too heavy, and definitely lighter than your carry-on.
Other Things to Consider
- If you'll be hiking, consider taking a backpack as your personal item. You wouldn't want to go hiking with a tote, right? If you use a backpack as your personal item, you can later use it for hiking and as your day-pack when walking around the city.
- If you're going on a business trip, use an under-seat rolling bag as a personal item. For those that are frequently going on two-day business trips, it's worth it to invest in a rolling under-seat suitcase and skip the carry-on altogether. We've found the Travelpro Crew 11 rolling tote to be the best one.
- Does your personal item stack on top of your carry-on? If you're getting a bag to use as a personal item, make sure that it has a rear strap that goes around the retractable handle of your suitcase. This way, it'll be easier to pull both of them together.
- Small duffels are pretty good for weekend getaways. If you're casually visiting your family for a few days, a smaller duffel is often the best choice for a personal item.

Aaahh-vocado oil!!
Posted by the oyin team on Feb 7th 2017
Avocado oil is produced from the fruit (avocado) of the avocado tree.
Avocado oil is pressed from the fleshy pulp surrounding the avocado pit, making it one of the few edible oils not derived from a seed. This oil reaches deeper then many other natural oils making it a perfect choice for moisturizing!
The avocado super oil soothes irritated skin and has been known to ease joint pain! It's vitamins and minerals are nourishing to the inside of the body and can also feed you from the outside in by upgrading your skin's ability to generate and increase stronger cells...which helps heal wounds and reduce skin blemishes!!
We are proud to use this super food's oil in the following oyin products:
After Bath ~ Coco Mango Body Butter Bar ~ Whipped Shea
PS: Avocado oil also makes a great salad dressing too!! lol!! :o)

Question: People make me unable to relax, why is this?
|Optimisticide - Wed Dec 09, 2009 8:56 am
Share |
People seem to like me, they say I am funny, intelligent and handsome. Probably have all that to thank for my recent answer of yes from my fiancee. As happy as I am with him, and he makes me very happy, we have a major issue: I do not like being around people and he is a social butterfly. This has started to become a bigger problem recently since he feels offended that I "hate his friends." The truth is that I do not 'hate' them, I just prefer to be alone. It breaks down to a combination of things:
When I am first 'tossed' into a social event with as little as one other person I tend to sort of shut down, getting very quite and finding a place to sit (in those situations I prefer to sit in corners). That will last for about 2-5min, with me making no eye contact ,usually looking in a different direction altogether, limiting my responses to one or two word answers as best I am able.
After the reclusive stage we move onto me in-a-way 'pretending' to be social, meaning that I really am not the person that I soon become; becoming load and making jokes, constantly making jokes or poking fun at something or someone. Or picking apart peoples sentences with references to trivial facts. I like to think my true self as more of a calm and quite person, like I am with my fiancee, carrying on normal conversations.
My pretending stage lasts for about 15-45min, at which point I will start playing with my phone or reading. Getting very quite and distancing myself as best as I a can until I get to leave. When we finally do get home, I say we because I would never be social on my own its more of me being dragged to visit my fiancee's friends, I get very upset and angry and stay that way for about an hour until I forget about it and act like nothing happened.
My best description of how I feel is like I am in a corner that is lit and all around me is pitch black, I am very tense, nervous, uncomfortable and completely unable to relax. Like from that darkness there are a thousand eyes all focused on me. The reason I pretend, I think, is to seem a bit more normal and leave with people thinking I am no freak.
I have become very good at pretending, usually making a very good impression on his friends, who all seem to love me. I was also very loved in high-school, one of the popular kids. None of that, though, makes me any more comfortable around people. I have thought a bit about going to see a psychiatrist, though my fiancee is the only person who I have ever spent enough time with to actually know about this 'problem.' And it is more him pushing, I keep telling him some people are just not social and that I am happy, and feel as though I have a great life.
Thank you for reading, I look forward to reading some responses and adding more information if it is needed.

Hello Optimisticide,
It seems that you recognize that there is a problem, and you have learned to cope with it in unhelpful ways - sitting in the corner, or being loud and dominating. The up and down of your emotions must be very difficult for you. Your partner's disappointment in your lack of sociability could become greater and greater as your relationship goes on. Seeing a psychologist or psychiatrist is recommended. However, before you attend the appointment, keep a careful log or journal of exactly what happens in situations in which you are uncomfortable. What are you feeling? Fear? Insecurity? Smothered? When you take the step to burst into sociability with jokes, etc., what are you feeling? Desperation? Giving up? A "screw it" attitude? Note how long the episodes last, and if you think of anything in your childhood or past at those times. Your symptoms are somewhat phobic, and sound like you have a deep insecurity. A qualified psychologist could provide some testing that may help clarify what is going on, and what direction would be best to resolve the issue. You and your partner can talk about compromise - how many social events are reasonable to attend, and how many times it would be good to stay home together or with just one or two other couples that you both enjoy. As with any compromise, it can be adjusted as your issues change.
Good luck to you both.

The Scourged
|The Scourged
|Battle Cry
|Seekers of Truth
|Warband Leader
|Gallus Herodicus
|Base of Operations
|Interrogation, insanity
|Dark blue and dark red with gold trim
The Scourged are a Chaos Space Marine warband dedicated to Tzeentch. Formerly known as the Seekers of Truth, they served under the Inquisition. This service amounted to murdering civilians the Inquisition deemed undesirable. Over time, this took its toll on the chapter, their services reducing their morale so low that that entire chapter began questioning their devotion to the Imperium.
Every night their Chapter Master, Gallus Herodicus, would pray to the Emperor for guidance and the ability to ascertain when men spoke the truth and when they spoke lies. The Emperor never answered his prayers, but one night Tzeentch was listening in and decided to grant Herodicus' request. Tzeentch, in his wisdom, made it so that not just Herodicus, but the entire chapter would know when someone in the galaxy lied. The chapter only remained Loyalist for a matter of days before going rogue and vowing to tear down the Imperium of Man and the bedrock of lies it was built upon. Obviously afflicted with crippling insanity, but really, it's not their fault. They understand the truth now. That they managed to get ANYTHING done is a testament to how awesome these moralfags are.
The Scourged appear in both the fourth and sixth edition Chaos Space Marine codices as an example of a Tzeentch-aligned renegade chapter. Like The Flawless Host, a single model appears painted in their colors, in this case a Chaos Sorcerer in Terminator armor. 8th edition gave them a brand new dark red color scheme in the Chaos Space Marines codex.
