Construction magnate Ron Tutor confirms that his investor group now owns the award-winning film studio
Construction magnate Ron Tutor can now call himself a Hollywood mogul.
The chief executive of Tutor-Saliba Corp. confirmed Friday that the group of investors he leads completed its deal to buy the award-laden studio Miramax Films from The Walt Disney Co.
Disney said the sale to Filmyard Holdings LLC was for $663 million, subject to certain adjustments. Filmyard’s investors include Tutor, real estate investment group Colony Capital LLC and its CEO Tom Barrack and Qatar Holding LLC, the Middle Eastern country’s investment firm.
The deal was announced in July, but its closing was delayed amid concerns about bank financing.
Tutor on Friday told The Associated Press that Barclays PLC was the lead bank in the financing.
“Everybody’s smiling,” he said. “We’re excited, moving forward.”
Mike Lang, a former business development executive at New Corp., has been hired as Miramax’s new chief executive, Tutor said. He added that he would be more at liberty to talk about plans for the studio next week.
Miramax was founded in 1979 by Harvey and Bob Weinstein and named after their parents Miriam and Max. The studio is behind a string of Oscar winners including “Shakespeare in Love” (1998), “Chicago” (2002) and “No Country for Old Men” (2007).
Disney bought Miramax for $80 million in 1993 and kept the Weinsteins on as managers until they left after a dispute over the Michael Moore documentary “Fahrenheit 9/11″ to form The Weinstein Co. in 2005. Disney had been looking to sell the edgy studio since January after closing down much of its operations, and it began focusing more on family fare that could be linked to toys, theme park attractions and other spin-off businesses.
Disney said the sale includes over 700 film titles, as well as books, development projects and the “Miramax” name.

It wasn’t until I encountered paranormal romance that I finally understood why so many people love romance novels. Before I read any paranormal, I’d hear people go on and on about how their current read had just mind blowing romance scenes that kept them up at night. But no matter how hard I tried, I could never get into them myself. But one sweet day I was introduced to the kind of romance that would rock my world forever: paranormal romance. Paranormal romance novels did something for me that older romance novels could not. It showed me romance that was not humanly possible. Or was it?
In Reckless (Blue Collar Boyfriends Book 1), by Jessi Gage, Derek is going through a divorce, living alone, only seeing his daughter for a few days at a time, and he keeps having these nightmares that try to steal his sleep. But before his nightmares get out of hand there is always a woman`s voice telling him that “everything will be ok, I am here”. He thinks he has completely dreamt this girl up and that is all she is, a dream girl. But one day he receives a phone call that lets him know that his dream girl may not be a dream after all.
In Web of Hearts and Souls, by Jamie Magee, Willow had dreamt of two men her whole life: one man who was evil, and then one man who was her safe haven. In her dreams she would always dream of the evil boy first who would have her in a dark, sad place where Willow can only describe as “hell”. But she knew that there was something to always look forward to. After her nightmares she would always be taken to her safe haven where her good guy would always be waiting for her. She felt in her heart that he would always be there to protect her from the evil boy. But why would she need protection? Even though it felt so real, she knew it was just a dream. Or was it? One day, her father reveals a truth about their family that could only mean that her hellish boy was real, and would hunt her down. But that also meant that maybe her good dream boy could be real also.
I am not trying to talk badly about older romance novels. I actually respect them because without the older romance novels we would not have the diversification in romance novels that we have today. Paranormal romance novels are just more on my level because I am a dreamer myself, and I like to believe the unbelievable. What genres of romance novels are appealing to you? Why?

Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ has received disturbing news that the Town of West Orange will hold a Palestinian flag raising next Friday, January 5.
This comes after the Israeli flag, which was raised in West Orange on Yom Ha’Atzmaut last May, was finally lowered at the end of Hanukkah earlier this month. According to new town policy, the Palestinian flag will remain in front of the town hall for only three days, far fewer days than the Israeli flag has flown, but long enough in our view, to make a serious statement.
We expressed our deep concerns to town officials that their actions, however unintentional, support Palestinian calls for an Israeli ceasefire, undermine Israel’s right to self-defense which requires the elimination of the terrorist threat on its border and questions the Biden Administration’s stated policy which sees Hamas as an existential danger to Israel and western civilization.
Further, the Palestinian flag does not yet represent a country, but a people, whose elected government in Gaza was responsible for the massacre of 1,200 Israelis and the abduction of over 250 others. To raise their flag in the middle of an ongoing war sends a deeply disturbing message to the Jewish residents of West Orange and all its constituents, that while it stands shoulder to shoulder with Israel, West Orange also stands with those who unleashed this barbaric violence.
While we acknowledge the constitutionally protected right to free speech and appreciate the town of West Orange’s commitment to diversity of opinion, we are deeply troubled by this action. To those who wish to protest, we urge you to show up with banners and pictures of the hostages who remain in captivity in Gaza. We encourage you to protest peaceably, and focus on the message of bringing our hostages home. Our security team will monitor events and our JCRC will continue to make our concerns known to town officials.

Another area that has been hugely effective is Botox. BOTOX® Cosmetic is a natural purified protein that, when injected in low doses, will minimize the appearance of wrinkles. There is minimal discomfort for a short period during the Botox injections. However, once complete there is usually no discomfort. For more information regarding BOTOX® Cosmetic, please visit www.botoxcosmetic.com.
Botox is highly effective at blocking the connection between the nerve and the muscle and is most commonly used in these lines between the eyebrows and in the forehead area. Botox is also used for the squint lines or crows feet lines around the eyes. The goal is to achieve a very natural result. Most patients have a tug of war going on in their face all day long; muscles that pull down, muscles that pull up, squinting muscles. We can use our knowledge of the anatomy and weaken certain muscles to achieve a balance and a peaceful harmony in someone's face.
Any man or woman who is concerned with the appearance of wrinkles might consider Botox treatments instead of, or in addition to, a surgical procedure. BOTOX® Cosmetic is an efficient non-surgical alternative or compliment to a facelift.
If you are interested in non-surgical procedures such such as Botox, or just have questions about your different non-surgical options, click the link below to schedule a personal and confidential cosmetic surgery consultation through our convenient on-line form. Or call 1-727-341-0337.

The collapse of Huawei and Honor has left a massive opening in the European smartphone market. The likes of OnePlus, Xiaomi, Oppo, and Realme all cashed in last quarter and boosted their respective market shares, but HMD Global-backed Nokia failed to do the same.
Nokia failed to capitalize on Huawei’s collapse
Counterpoint Research has revealed to SuomiMobiili (via NokiaMob) that Nokia accounted for less than 2% of the European smartphone market in Q1 2021 and saw its overall smartphone shipments halve versus Q1 2020.
The exact number of shipped devices hasn’t been released, but Counterpoint reported 1.7 million Nokia smartphone shipments for Q1 2020. If shipments did halve last quarter, it suggests that around 850,000 Nokia devices were shipped in Europe.
It’s worth noting that HMD Global only announced and release one new smartphone — the Nokia 1.4 — during the quarter. It chose to delay its fully refreshed budget and mid-range lineup until this quarter, so it’ll be interesting to see the Q2 2021 numbers once they’re released in July.
Unlike competitors which typically bet on impressive internal hardware, HMD Global is focusing its efforts on providing regular software updates and long battery life. Whether that’s enough to attract European customers will remain to be seen.

Updated March 13, 2010 @ 9:30 a.m. ET
Moves that nobody saw coming have suddenly become a hot trend in Indianapolis. With team insiders still scratching their heads over the hiring of former Bears offensive coordinator Ron Turner to a position on the Colts' coaching staff that has yet to be specifically spelled out, the team continued to raise plenty of eyebrows with the March 8 release of Ryan Lilja, who started every game at left guard last season after missing the previous season with knee issues.
While Lilja would have earned a base salary of a little more than $3 million in 2010, it would appear money was no object in the decision to let him go, as the team paid him the $1.7 million roster bonus he was due before terminating his contract. Team president Bill Polian publicly singled out shortcomings on the offensive line as a key reason for the Colts' loss to the Saints in Super Bowl XLIV and has led insiders to believe a movement is afoot to go with bigger, more physical O-linemen. "But we all thought it wouldn't start until the draft," said one team insider caught off guard by the move.
While it's quite possible a high-round draft pick will end up replacing Lilja, possible replacements currently on the roster include 2008 draft picks Jamey Richard and Mike Pollak and newly acquired Andy Alleman, a free agent who was not offered a contract after playing for the Chiefs last season. Each of the three is taller and weighs more than the 6-2, 290-pound Lilja, who is expected to land on his feet on another team's roster. "They also could draft a new left tackle and consider moving Charlie Johnson to left guard," the insider added. The Colts added a new tackle with size to the mix when they signed ex-Raven Adam Terry to a one-year deal. The 6-8, 335-pound Terry, a 2005 second-round pick of the Ravens, was a restricted free agent who was not tendered by Baltimore.

“Ruth has just released her tenth CD, Garden of Mysteries showcases Ruth’s excellent finger-picking dulcimer style and her powerful, beautiful voice. Listening to each song is akin to picking up a series of beautiful objects, each begging for your rapt attention. As you begin to really appreciate the wonder and promise of the object you’re holding, it fades only to be replaced by a new and equally mysterious subject for your careful examination. Each object is a differing facet of a very cohesive whole, and the listening experience is as restful and thought provoking as an actual trip to a real garden. Ruth’s original compositions site nicely alongside songs from Robin Williamson, Mark Simos, Les Barker, Lorraine Lee Hammond, and others. There is a definite but mystical bond at work, and I’d be surprised if you didn’t feel it too.” ~ reviewed by Neal Walters for Dulcimer Players News, Summer 2008
“The name Ruth Barrett might be familiar to many Sagewoman readers. The author of the critically acclaimed Women’s Rites, Women’s Mysteries: Intuitive Ritual Creation (Llewellyn, 2207) has been prominent in both the international women’s music and pagan music scene for a number of years, performing at many pagan and woman-centered gatherings and festivals. Her latest CD is a magickal collection of songs both traditional and original, blending Barrett’s famous, angelic fretted dulcimer with her earthy, powerful voice. It’s a beautiful combination.
Barrett’s contributions to pagan music are numerous. She is included in compilations such as “Songs of Witchcraft and Magic” (produced by the Museum of Witchcraft in Boscastle, Cornwall) and “The Best of Pagan Song.” In her solo work, and in duets with Cyntia Smith, the sacred feminine and a joyful earth-consciousness shine through in such works as “The Year is a Dancing Woman” and “Invocation to Free Women”. In “Garden of Mysteries”, these favorites themes and images abound.
In “Quiet Mist of Morning” Barrett takes us through the Wheel of the Year as perceived through the eyes of an enchanted maiden. In the title cut, she makes a poignant statement about the nature faith and being true to oneself. “Garden of Mysteries” spans a wide range, from the traditional “Majorcan Dance” and “Archibald McDonald of Kippoch” to the deep pagan roots of songs like the late Shekinah Mountainwater’s invocation “Lady Mother of All” and Les Barker’s “Earth”. “Black Sarah” has a fierce bite as a Gypsy fortuneteller laments over centuries of betrayals and losses, while “Amanda’s Lullaby” is a moving tribute to the love a mother feels for her child. Barrett’s dulcimer is accompanied by Irish fiddle, bohran and flute to create a beautiful collection of music. Absolutely heavenly!” – Review by Leni Hester for Sagewoman Magazine, October 2011

Horyu-ji's star attraction for tourists is the Five-Story Pagoda. It is truly iconic.
Take the JR Kansai line from Nara. From Horyu-ji Station you can walk to the temple grounds - about 15 minutes, or take the bus that drops you practically at the gate. Beware the schoolchildren. Horyu-ji is culturally significant so schools do day trips for students. Try get to Horyu-ji early in the morning before the school buses arrive.
A typical day trip from Nara includes taking the train from Nara to Horyu-ji, then bus to Yakushiji and Toshodaiji.

Beautifully restored two yagura (corner turrets) and the gates over original walls. If you go to the left of the entrance around the moat there's a ramp leading to the Citadel surrounded by the inner moat and impressive walls covered with vegetation. A short walk takes you to the main keep (tenshu) foundation which is off limits, but if you jump the rope and climb the steps to the top you'll get a very nice view of the town. If you walk around the inner moat you'll find the spot where the original bridge over the inner moat stood with a sign explaining the upcoming restoration of the bridge and the gate. The opening in the wall across marks the location of the gate. From there you can get to the library building where at the time they had a small exhibition on the founder of the castle, Tsutsui Junkei.

Nara Visitor Center & Inn is located in the midst of Nara. Right on the edge of Sarusawa Pond, the location offers wonderful views of the changing seasons. Nara Visitor Center & Inn provides tourists visiting Nara a great place to relax and interact along with the opportunity to discover and experience the city’s cultural and sightseeing riches.
Great location, 10-min walk from the Kintetsu station and easy walk to Nara Park and historic areas for shopping. Large room by Japanese standards (only downside is brick pillows and some carpet stains/dated fittings). Clean and quiet. Extremely friendly staff, very helpful and informative in English. Convenience store located on ground level of same building and several cultural activities on offer. Highly recommend.

Situated just to the east of Hōryū-ji, the main event at Chūgū-ji is one of the smallest, simplest and unassuming yet quietly beautiful buddha/bodisattva images in whole of Japan (Miroku Bosatsu == Sanskrit: Maitreya). It's a dark, moody camphor wood image of the Asuka period. The setting is also simple and beautiful. I've been there in sun and rain - nothing seems to add or take away from the special feeling here.

No matter you are a Buddhist follower or not, this is a place that worth to visit. Built in Nara period, 710-749 AD, the temple was officially positioned as one of the state-established provincial temples. No need to worry about the deer wandering in the garden, they won't bother unless you want to buy biscuit for them to eat.

We visited this temple on a journey through Japan. The walk from the train station is nice but be warned, Google maps took us around to the backside of the property which is inaccessible. The photo of the entrance is below. The entrance is off a fairly busy street, so I’df you find yourself in a residential area, you are on the wrong side.
The tea ceremony was very simple, and though the staff don’t speak English, they are welcoming! They have some printed material in English to explain the basics of the background and purpose of the temple. It was a peaceful and lovely rest stop in our day, and photography is welcomed.
There was an elderly monk who enthusiastically showed us around in Japanese, and it was great fun to interact with one or 2 words of English thrown in occasionally to help us along. He was so pleased to show us around that the language barrier didn’t really matter.

Hōkiji was originally built in 606 as Okamoto Palace for Prince Shōtoku, who is a famous figure in Japanese history for his patronage of Buddhism and civilising edicts. In 622 it became a temple and in 638 high priest Fukuryo built the Hondō dedicated to Miroku-bosatsu (the bodhisattva who will exist in the future, or the next Buddha). High priest Ese began building the pagoda we see today in 685. The pagoda’s metal inscription was cast in 706 and archaeological discoveries validate the temple’s history. This makes the Sanjūtō (three-tier pagoda) VERY OLD. By the early Edo it was all what remained of the temple but Shinsei Ennin and his disciples restored the tower in 1678 and rebuilt the lecture hall in 1694. The Shotendō dates to 1863. The pagoda was last renovated in 1972-1975. Hōkiji is listed as part of the world heritage site which includes Hōryūji. With the age of Hōkiji’s venerable pagoda, its graceful form and rich Buddhist history, its contribution to global heritage is not overstated.
* some sources state Hōkiji’s pagoda as the oldest in the country, but up-to-date research demonstrates that the pagoda at Hōryūji is about a century older.

The deer are freely roaming around the park and you can buy a pack of crackers for 150 yen to feed them. They absolutely love them and prepare to immediately be surrounded buy potentially overly friendly deer to get them. They will bow for them as well which is quite cute. There are lots of nice trails around to walk and plenty of little shops and food places. Not too far from the station either

When Covid hit I realized I would have time to build a boat. So, I did, a Glen-L zip caught my eye and I got started. I wanted the look of the boat, but I also wanted to go fast so I over built and put on a bigger than suggested motor.
Sailboats - Cruising
Sistership to Lin and Larry Pardey's TALEISIN which was meticulously built by Kenneth O. Minor. This sailboat is a beautiful seaworthy vessel and a one of a kind hand built art piece.
In the summer of 2008, David M Jones of Suwanee Georgia was given a 1957 Speedicraft designed by Otis Borum of Jacksonville Florida. The Honey Bee’s deck, transom and 25 percent of her hull were rotten. Dave approached his Father, Morris A.
This boat is a piece of history. The current owner was taken by a guy who was going to help maintain her but ended up stealing from him and living on the boat like a squatter. We are looking for a good home for someone who will keep her from turning into firewood.
Near new custom Chaisson Dory built by Cottrell Boatbuilding in Maine. Original design stretch to 11' with increased freeboard providing enhanced performance. Off white hull and interior with burgundy sheer strake, Mohagany transom and trim. Shaw and Tenny cedar oars with carrying case.

Ashton Kutcher vs. Tom Cruise for "Killers" and "Knight and Day"?
• Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
30 Sep 11
I dunno; I've only seen some before-movie previews for "Knight and Day," and don't think I've ever heard of "Killers" (although it's not a very distinctive title). Tom Cruise now reminds me of Jack Nicholson in "BATMAN"
• United States
15 Jun 10
I'm not sure which one did better at the box office, but I can tell you that I would like to see both! I LOVE Katherin Heigl and think she will be awesome opposite Kutcher. The storyline for Knight and Day looks like it would be alot of fun. I've also seen some of the behind the scenes things from this one, and it looked like they had a blast filming it!! (I especially liked the one where Cameron Diaz "accidently" knocks Tom Cruise off his feet with a karate kick.)

Victoria and Vanessa Traina are without a doubt two of the most stylish sisters in the whole of fashion-dom. They're up there with Mary-Kate and Ashley, Lucy and Plum Sykes, Missy and Frankie Rayder, Jaime and Jodie Kidd, and any other stylish sister duo I failed to mention. They exude style, which is not surprising given their lineage. As the daughters of best-selling author Danielle Steele (who collects couture the way most people collect, oh, DVDs), they've been exposed to high fashion from a very early age. They had a formal coming-out at the legendary Crillon Ball in Paris (other debutantes have included Jane Aldridge, Lauren Bush, Anna's daughter, and Dree Hemingway). And now they're fixtures on the international fashion scene, attending the major shows and even acting as design muses for certain designers. So, it should come as no surprise when the sisters step out looking as fabulous as they did in the above photo from Vogue.com.

Smart reactors – Combining stimuli-responsive hydrogels and 3D printing
Reactor design and development are key disciplines in process engineering. In order to keep up with modern-day production demands, new reactor concepts have to be conceived, which transcend the mere purpose of a reaction vessel. With the availability of improved fabrication methods and insight into new materials, novel process integration measures and process-adapted setups can be developed to provide a new generation of reactors. The application of smart materials allows for response-triggered actuation, which can be used in setups for self-contained process control without external input. In combination with available 3D fabrication technologies, smart materials can be integrated and adapted to the reaction system demands, to develop smart reactor concepts. Herein, we demonstrate an exemplary application of a smart reactor module for an exothermic emulsion copolymerization of vinyl acetate (VAc) and Versa® 10, a vinyl neodecanoate. The flow manipulation of the reaction medium on a preparative scale is presented by using poly(N-iso-propylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) hydrogels as temperature-triggered actuators, which are able to distinguish the course of the reaction by separating the flow of reactant from product stream during continuous operation.

What Is A Stoma?
A stoma is a way to release feces from the body after a major or minor surgery. Part of the bowel is brought to the surface of the abdomen and a small pouch is placed there to collect excrement. This solution to remove waste can be a permanent or a temporary solution, depending on your condition and your doctor’s recommendations.
What Are Stoma Reversals?
If your doctor thinks that your condition is temporary or that you have recovered well after surgery, they may elect to perform a stoma reversal. This means that you can reconnect your bowel and your colon and close up the site of the stoma.
To determine if you are eligible for a stoma reversal your doctor should do a thorough inspection of the stoma site and your bowel movements. They should examine your rectum and your sphincter muscles to ensure that they are strong enough for bowel movements. They should also give you an enema to ensure that there are no leaks or tears in your bowel. Your doctor may also elect to give you a CT scan to check for any diseases that could affect your bowels.
What To Expect From A Stoma Reversal Surgery?
If you and your doctor agree to pursue a stoma reversal surgery, you can expect to have one anywhere from three months to twelve months after the initial surgery. This gives your muscles enough time to heal and helps ensure optimal function.
If there are no complications, the procedure should take about two hours to perform. You will be placed under general anaesthetic. After surgery you will only be allowed to eat liquids and will be advised to stay on bed rest. This gives your body time to heal and helps to ensure you will not have any bowel movements that could infect the area. After a few days, your doctor will recommend that you eat soft foods and move around to help aid in your recovery.
Typically, people stay in the hospital for about four days after a stoma reversal so that a doctor can keep close eye on recovery and ensure that there are no complications or infections. If you do not experience any of these things, you will typically be released from the hospital around day four.
Similar to other surgeries, you will not be allowed to lift heavy objects for at least six weeks. You will have a post-op check up around the same time. If you experience any unusual symptoms or are in severe pain you may need to contact your doctor immediately.
Returning To Normal Life
A stoma reversal is a serious, but routine, procedure. It can take months to regain full control over your bowels. Many people who have had a stoma reversal often experience diarrhea or constipation, pain, soreness, and incontinence. These things can make recovery a challenge, however the more you move and exercise the better your recovery will be.
Eating a good and well balanced diet can also help aid in recovery after a stoma reversal. You may choose to use wet wipes when cleaning your stoma area to help ensure you remove all bacteria. It can also make the area less painful. Using wet wipes can protect your skin and help you return to life quicker.


Industrial-process control valves – Part 8-3: Noise considerations – Control valve aerodynamic noise prediction method
|Publication Date:||1 November 2010|
|ICS Code (Pressure regulators):||23.060.40|
|ICS Code (Noise emitted by machines and equipment):||17.140.20|
|ICS Code (Industrial process measurement and control):||25.040.40|
This part of IEC 60534 establishes a theoretical method to predict the external sound-pressure level generated in a control valve and within adjacent pipe expanders by the flow of compressible fluids.
This method considers only single-phase dry gases and vapours and is based on the perfect gas laws.
This standard addresses only the noise generated by aerodynamic processes in valves and in the connected piping. It does not consider any noise generated by reflections from external surfaces or internally by pipe fittings, mechanical vibrations, unstable flow patterns and other unpredictable behaviour.
It is assumed that the downstream piping is straight for a length of at least 2 m from the point where the noise measurement is made.
This method is valid only for steel and steel alloy pipes (see Equations (21) and (23) in 5.5).
The method is applicable to the following single-stage valves: globe (straight pattern and angle pattern), butterfly, rotary plug (eccentric, spherical), ball, and valves with cage trims. Specifically excluded are the full bore ball valves where the product FpC exceeds 50 % of the rated flow coefficient.
For limitations on special low noise trims not covered by this standard, see Clause 8. When the Mach number in the valve outlet exceeds 0,3 for standard trim or 0,2 for low noise trim, the procedure in Clause 7 is used

"There's no text book on how to run the Senate presidency," he said. He doesn't expect to make many changes but wants to talk to people after Tuesday's vote about issues including whether New Hampshire should expand Medicaid to an estimated 49,000 poor adults and where to find revenue for highway improvements. Morse was a co-sponsor of a casino gambling bill this year that earmarked some funding for highway improvements. The bill passed the Senate but died in the House. The House instead passed a bill phasing in an increase in the gas and diesel tax for road fixes. "I'm still totally opposed to the gas tax. I think it will stall the economy," Morse said. That could affect Sen. Jim Rausch 's plan to file legislation raising the gas tax to pay for highway improvements. As Senate president, Morse will have the power to decide whether the Senate will consider a gas tax increase since the chamber voted not to consider bills similar to the tax hike passed by the House. Morse also has not changed his position on whether New Hampshire should expand Medicaid under the federal health care overhaul law.
Cabinet colleagues, wayward allies of the ruling coalition and an obstructive opposition have together stood in the way of bold steps that might have averted this year's collapse of confidence in the India story. It is a crisis within a crisis. With elections looming, that won't change anytime soon, which means Chidambaram will find it difficult to take robust policy action if the situation goes from very bad to worse. "If parliament is not able to point to the direction in which the country's economy will go, parliament is not able to agree on, say 10 steps which the government should take today ... what kind of a message will it send to the rest of the world?" he asked lawmakers in frustration last week as the rupee tumbled ever-lower into uncharted territory. "The fact is, the polity of this country is divided on economic policies and that is understandable ... My plea to everyone, despite our differences: can we agree upon some measures which have to be taken in order to lift the country's economy from what it is today?" he said. Chidambaram was not available for an interview for this story.
RELATED NEW DELHI: There seems to be no let up in the show of BJP's sympathy for President Pranab Mukherjee in view of the suggestion from certain quarters that some of the decisions he took as finance minister between 2009 and 20011 contributed to the worsening of the fiscal deficit. BJP leaders on Friday expressed solidarity with the President in view of what they called "unfair insinuation" that his decisions worsened the fiscal deficit, when they called upon him in connection with their demand for early polls. Sources http://www.firstfinancialuk.com in the BJP said the expression of support led Mukherjee to say that the fiscal expansion being ascribed to him, in fact, predated his tenure in the finance ministry, adding that former finance minister Yashwant Sinha would bear him out. The BJP delegation, comprising party veteran L K Advani, leaders of opposition Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley and former party chief M Venkaiah Naidu, Sinha and others, broached the topic soon after the principal opposition had taken up cudgels for the President in Rajya Sabha. Coming out in support of the President, Jaitley had objected to the blame for the jump in fiscal deficit being heaped upon those "who are not here to defend themselves", stressing that the gap between government's spending and income started widening in 2007 when the government launched schemes as part of Congress's preparations for 2009 polls. On Friday, former finance minister Sinha strongly supported the President's purported contention that the expansion of fiscal deficit was a reality before he took charge of the finance ministry. Recalling that Mukherjee moved into the finance ministry on January 24, 2009, Sinha stressed that the two supplementary demands - in October and January 2008 had resulted in a net cash outgo of Rs 147,000 crore.

Latest Zemax release features new module for Structural, Thermal, and Optical Performance (STOP) analysis
03 Jun 2021
Zemax is pleased to announce the latest release of our software, OpticStudio® and OpticsBuilder™. Version 21.2 of these products represents our second of three 2021 releases.
Introducing the OpticStudio STAR module for STOP analysis
The OpticStudio 21.2 release includes a new module, OpticStudio Structural, Thermal, Analysis and Results (STAR), that simplifies and streamlines workflows between finite element analysis (FEA) packages and OpticStudio. By loading structural and thermal FEA data sets from any simulation package directly into OpticStudio, engineers can use OpticStudio STAR module tools to readily characterize and visualize the impact of structural and thermal loads on system performance. The STAR module features an intuitive user interface, but also supports workflow automation via the application programming interfaces in STAR (STAR-API) and OpticStudio (ZOS-API). In doing so, the STAR module strengthens the connections between the Zemax solution and other engineering simulation tools.
"When structural and thermal loads impact optical performance, our customers need to analyze and address the complex multidisciplinary effects that come into play," said Dr. S. Subbiah, Chief Executive Officer of Zemax. "We built the STAR module to offer powerful, accurate STOP analysis and designed it to easily integrate into optical design and manufacturing workflows."
Better accuracy, new possibilities
"Now we get the data from the FEA software into OpticStudio and use the STAR module for STOP analysis," said Daewook Kim, University of Arizona Assistant Professor of Optical Sciences and Astronomy. "We can quickly and easily see the structural and thermal impacts and ensure our optical designs are accurate."
OpticStudio and OpticsBuilder: Additional enhancements
OpticStudio 21.2 also includes an update to the non-sequential Path Analysis tool that enables data to be calculated and saved in a new .PAF file during the ray trace itself, eliminating the need to save and parse large ray files to access ray path data. This enhancement is valuable for identifying and minimizing unintended optical paths during stray light analysis of complex optomechanical models.
As many camera systems continue to get smaller and smaller in size—for example, cell phone camera lenses—demand is growing for more complex aspheric surfaces in the design of these systems. To support this, OpticStudio 21.2 has added support for the Q-type asphere to non-sequential mode, and this object can now also be natively imported to CAD with the addition of Q-type asphere support in OpticsBuilder 21.2.
OpticsBuilder 21.2 also provides capabilities for deleting optical assemblies and starting fresh with a new .ZBD file, further improving the workflow between OpticStudio and OpticsBuilder.

What do you respond to when a hot chick says, no hablo Ingles? The comedy In Other Words may have the answer.
In Other Words is a fun, romance comedy. A group of friends True (Bryan McClure), Benny (Rishi Arya) and Kiki (Joe Nunñez) are trying to start up their matchmaking app. True is the tech geek of the group. While he is testing out he matches with a beautiful gal, Angelica (Natasha Esca). However, he feels there is a glitch with the app since Angelica does not speak English but is determined to find out.

Finding an ideal family-friendly hotel in La Bourboule does not have to be difficult. Welcome to Hotel Le Geneve, a nice option for travellers like you.
Rooms at Hotel Le Geneve provide a flat screen TV, and getting online is easy, with free wifi available.
In addition, Hotel Le Geneve offers breakfast, which will help make your La Bourboule trip additionally gratifying. And, as an added convenience, there is free parking available to guests.
When you’re feeling hungry, be sure to check out Pizza Loulou, which is a deli that is popular with locals and out-of-towners alike.
There is no shortage of things to do in the area: explore popular art galleries such as Boutique-Atelier Verre Souffle, Etire, File and Aux nouvelles galeries.
Hotel Le Geneve puts the best of La Bourboule at your fingertips, making your stay both relaxing and enjoyable.
Beware the web site is very misleading the parking is free on the street if you can find a space. Room was dark seedy and needed major refurbishment the plaster was coming off wall shower was dirty, thankfully the restaurant was closed along with the bar.
Hotel was great value for money in a really central location, close to the port and old town and ideal for shopping also. Rooms were spacious and nicely decorated. the staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. Will definitely make a return visit.
We were a bit worried when we booked the hotel as there were no reviews. But we were delighted to find an amazing hotel, with all mod cons (except a telephone); tasteful, modern furnishings; a bathroom to die for (a glass bowl for a basin no less!); a location that could not be beaten; but best of all a fantastic staff- especially Corrine - who couldn't do enough for us. The hotel was full, but we couldn't hear anyone else - we could have been the only guests. The room was spotlessly clean; beautifully decorated; towels changed every day; and a bed and pillows so comfortable it was difficult to get up in the morning. The hotel was a 10 minute stroll from the port in one direction (boat trips galore!) and the old town with restaurants, shops and an ambience that only the French can achieve. Corrine, the manageress, went the full 9 yards (plus a few more!) to ensure we had a memorable visit. It was my husband's 70th birthday (but don't be put off - this hotel is for any age group because of its proximity to so many attractions for both young and old alike) and Corrine made it such a special day, including booking us into a fantastic restaurant. She also spent ages trying to get us booked on a trip into the mountains - not an easy task as the Tour de France was in full swing at the time. The hotel was immaculate; the staff was incredibly kind and helpful; the location couldn't have been bettered. What more could you ask for? Just a tip when you arrive at Nice airport - don't get a taxi (35 Euros) get the bus - it stops very close to the hotel (place garibaldi) and only costs 6 Euros. If you have time - take the bus (just round the corner) to Monaco for 1.5 euros each and visit the palace. We would not hesitate to recommend Hotel Geneve to anyone wanting to experience the Cote D'Azur - it was magic and at a very reasonable price too.…

Google launches privacy Dashboard service
What does Google know about me?
Google has launched a Dashboard service that's designed to show how much the search engine giant knows about its users online activities.
The service provides a summary of data associated with a specified Google account. Users gain the ability to view and manage data, which ranges from search engine queries and emails sent through Gmail through to videos viewed on YouTube, and much else besides. Users will usually have already consented to allow Google to keep tabs on their activities online, but the search engine giant's tentacles reach so far that it's tough to know how much information it holds on each of us.
Google Dashboard - which is designed to address privacy concerns over the search engine giant's propensity to catalogue data - is accessed by logging into a Google account. Surfers get a list of the number of items held on particular services (Calenders, Blogger, Shopper, Chat, Gmail etc. etc.) linking to the data repositories of these services for more detailed information.
Although the Dashboard service goes some way towards answering the question of what Google knows about our lives online, it doesn't really provide many clues about how Google uses this information. In addition, one thing not included in the run-down is cookie-based data Google collects via its huge online ad-serving business.
Even so, Google Dashboard holds a lot of potentially sensitive data, providing yet another good reason for users to use hard to guess (strong) passwords on their Gmail or other Google accounts.
More details on Google Dashboard can be found in a blog entry here. ®

Back in the 80s, an obscenity law was enacted to keep women from exposing their breasts in public and to limit the sex toys purchased/owned by individuals. Recently, the ban was put into question when Lillian Bustle’s burlesque show was halted because it would have been a violation to the 1982 ordinance. The revision of the ordinance includes a change in what is considered “State of Nudity,” removing breasts from the definition, and includes a removal of language regarding sex toys.
This is a big step for the city, especially since this means breasts won’t be censored or regulated. While many might think this is going to lead to a path of poor decisions, it’s important to understand that breasts are unnecessarily sexualized. This revision surpasses the censorship of burlesque shows and opens up acts like public breastfeeding, leaving moms relieved instead of being forced to hide away when they need to feed their children while they’re in public.
We reached out to Lillian Bustle to discuss her perspective of the situation:
We have a chance to eliminate all gender discrimination from our city code and how, if they want to put wording in about female breasts, that they will find themselves having to make uncomfortable rulings about anatomy and gender in the future.
Lillian Bustle has a good point – do breasts make people uncomfortable. If so, why? Is it because men typically find breasts distracting and sexualize a very common body part? As she puts it,
Why would we want to write a new law that would teach our daughters that women’s bodies are inherently obscene, and objects to be regulated because men can’t control themselves?
A lot of her ideas stem from a piece by Reena N Glazer, Women’s Body Image & The Law. We know the original ordinance was meant to keep strip clubs out of Jersey City, but the law itself is outdated.
If you have a problem with the ordinance revision, it may be important to ask yourself: why? What’s the problem?

I know, there are a plethora of topics like this one:
I need followers
and I know that everyone is fed up of reading them, but I'm about to add to that number, sorry.
follow me, and I'll follow you
In doing so, I hope to accomplish a few quests at once:
getting people to check my profile
encourage people to post on my wall
maybe even get something for starting a thread (don't think so for this one, but hope is always good, no?)
So, I again apologize for another one of these, but there isn't much I can do until I get my goals realized...

Exploring Wiltshire and Somerset in the Snow
It's that time of year again when the snow falls, schools close and big kids come out to play... This time we venture out in the Land Rover to exploring Wiltshire and Somerset in the snow
Heading off reasonably early in the morning in the Land Rover, Rob and myself went off exploring Wiltshire and Somerset in search of some snow.
We start off by heading out on the Wellsway towards Priddy, the highest village on the Mendips making a stop at Chew Valley lakes.
We then headed down a few lanes to explore Ebbor Gorge, Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge before heading back up to Bristol and Castle Combe and finally the abandoned airfield at RAF Charmy Down.
You can see the full gallery in my winter snow gallery.

INDIANOLA, Iowa - Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin predicts Congress will approve a health care reform bill this fall that includes a public option, saying a "silent majority" of Americans favor such an overhaul.
Speaking with reporters Sunday at a Democratic fundraiser, Harkin promised passage of "a bill before we go home for Christmas." He says the measure will include a government insurance option.
Harkin's views have grown in importance since he was named chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee after the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy.
Harkin says there is little political risk in backing health care reform and that the real danger is opposing changes.
He contends "there is a silent majority all over America that understands we need health care reform and we need it now."

Tokyo: The Cabinet of Prime Minister
Naoto Kan on Tuesday agreed on a draft 2 trillion yen (USD 24.6
billion) as second extra budget for fiscal 2011 that would
finance relief work after the earthquake and tsunami in March,
including health checks over the next decades on people
affected by the subsequent nuclear crisis.
But the future of the budget was thrown into
uncertainty the same day as a minister charged with
reconstruction work associated with the March 11 disasters
quit only a week after his appointment. Opposition parties,
which control the House of Councillors, called for Kan`s
resignation to take responsibility for the fiasco.
The government plans to submit the draft budget and
related bills to the Diet on July 15, eyeing possible
implementation as early as July 22, officials said. It will
not issue any new debt to fund the budget, instead tapping the
surplus funds of the previous year.
It has already executed the 4.02 trillion yen first
supplementary budget for the year through next March to help
rebuild areas of north-eastern Japan devastated by the natural
disasters. The total amount of some 6 trillion yen is almost
double the combined size of three extra budgets following the
1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake.
The Finance Ministry is expected to soon start
drafting a third budget for reconstruction, which some
officials say could top 10 trillion yen by itself.
"We have created the second budget to finance some
projects that are not covered by the first budget but must be
embarked on as quickly as possible," Finance Minister
Yoshihiko Noda told reporters.

Jenny McCarthy predicts The View will sink like the Titanic after one more season... while hubby Donnie Wahlberg reveals they asked her to come back as host
Jenny McCarthy has predicted The View is going to sink like 'the Titanic'.
The ex-host told Howard Stern on SiriusXm the floundering show may struggle on for one more season before heading to the bottom.
'They might try one more year and then I think the Titanic might go down,' she said in an interview on Monday.
Scroll down for video
Going down: Jenny McCarthy predicted on Monday that The View might continue on for one more season before it sinks 'like the Titanic'
The 42-year-old was the 11th co-host in the ever changing line-up for the daytime TV staple, lasting just one season in 2014.
She left the same year as the show's original veteran host Barbara Walters, who'd been at the helm for all 17 seasons.
Rosie Perez and MSNBC political analyst Nicole Wallace took their places, but last month Rosie O'Donnell also revealed she was leaving, leaving Whoopi Goldberg as the only incumbent.
Being herself: Jenny, 42, who was accompanied by husband Donnie Wahlberg for the Howard Stern interview, said she 'couldn't be herself' on the View and has no regrets about leaving the show
Abandon ship: Rosie O'Donnell is the latest host to jump ship, leaving the show with just three hosts: Whoopi Goldberg, Nicole Wallace and Rosie Perez
During the SiriusXM interview Donnie Wahlberg revealed that the show's producers actually asked her to come back, adding that his wife would never admit it.
'She's very gracious about The View, and I will say, I told her the day that she left, I said, "They're gonna ask you back within six months",' he said. 'And she won't say it, but they did. Not officially, but they did.'
The model then had to confirm it on air: 'One of the producers called and said, "would I ever consider it?" And I said, "No, thank you",' she revealed. 'Because I couldn't be me! You know, you called it from the start. I couldn't be myself.'
Exodus: The 44-year-old lasted just one season, but was dropped the same year as Sherri Shepherd and Barbara Walters left
Pointing out that the show's rating shave fallen since she left, Stern asked if it felt good to have them come back to her, and she replied, 'yeah, it does. It does.'
But she claimed she was happiest now in her new job, as host of SiriusXM's Dirty, Sexy, Funny.
'I couldn't be happier here, Howard,' she gushed. 'I've never been more happy with a job in my entire life than being here. I get to be myself. I found my home.
No comeback: Donnie revealed during the interview that one of The View's producers asked if Jenny would return, which she confirmed, adding she replied in the negative

I just got a great reminder email from Niger Innis, the Director of the Tea Party.Net. The reminder is of all the evil done to our nation by President Obama and his minions. Here’s the short list from the folks at theTeaParty.Net.
Black Panther voter intimidation. RESULT – DOJ looked the other way, no charges filed, no prosecution.
Failing to label the Fort Hood shootings as a terrorist event. RESULT: Victims are denied Purple Heart benefits and many are hurting for money while the terrorist shooter Nidal Malik Hasan receives over $278,000 from the government in salary.
Running untracked guns into Mexico to gangs and drug cartels in the botched Fast & Furious gun running operation in an attempt to attack the Second Amendment. RESULT: Death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and hundreds of Mexican citizens.
America will either survive this thrashing by Barack Obama or she will wither away and be but a mere memory. Are you willing to look your children and grand-children in the eye and say to them, “I wish I could have done more for your freedom?” Stand with us in this fight for freedom and the future of America.
Benghazi Cover-up. Out of control czar appointments. Lavish vacations. ObamaCare.
Apologizing for American exceptionalism. Bowing before our enemies. Insulting our friends. Advertising food stamps in foreign countries. Suing states for daring to exercise Constitutional state sovereignty.
Bankrupting the country by doubling the debt. Bypassing Congress and ignoring our system of checks and balances. Collection of DNA samples after any arrest regardless of whether you are actually charged with a crime.
Race baiting. Pitting Americans against each other. Funding the Muslim Brotherhood with taxpayer dollars. Failing to call terrorism what it is.
Using the IRS as a political weapon to harass and intimidate Tea Party groups and conservatives. Attacking reporters for doing their jobs. Seizing phone records of the press. Seizing phone records of millions of innocent Americans. Rewarding liars, thieves, and crooks with prominent cabinet positions.
Wow, that is quite a list…
Mr. Innis and the good people at TeaParty.Net are working hard to defeat the liberal policies of President Obama and the Democrats. If you’d like to help them fight – you can check out their donation page here.
