MARANA, Ariz. -- Tiger Woods made 12 birdies in 20 holes and needed every one of them Friday in a brilliant duel with Aaron Baddeley that sent the world's No. 1 player into the quarterfinals of the Accenture Match Play Championship.
Rarely has Woods played at such a high level, only to have another player match him step for step, birdie for birdie.
Baddeley, who shot 80 in the final round of the U.S. Open the last he played alone with Woods, was 1 up with three holes to play and twice had putts to end the match. A tough, 10-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole broke sharply below the hole, and Baddeley's 12-foot eagle putt on the 19th hole burned the left edge of the cup, giving Woods new life.
Woods' final birdie was from 13 feet, and it was good all the way. He removed his cap when the ball was still a foot away from dropping, and he looked relieved after winning his longest match in his nine years at this tense tournament.
"It was quality shot after quality shot," Woods said. "Matches like that are fun to be a part of."
Baddeley made 10 birdies, including five in a row to start the back nine, one of them conceded from 12 feet when Woods' tee shot plunked a marshal on the head and went into the sagebrush of the Dove Mountain desert.
What the Australian needed was an eagle on the 19th hole. Instead, he became the latest victim to Woods, who has twice produced late rallies in his bid to continue a streak of victories dating to early September.
"I played great, you know?" Baddeley said. "I made him have to win it."
Woods advanced to the quarterfinals for the fifth time in nine years. He will face K.J. Choi, a 1-up winner over Paul Casey.
Typical of this tournament, those two matches could not have been any more different.
Choi birdied the first three holes to build a big lead and was 3-up through seven holes after making an eagle. But he closed with 11 straight pars to outlast Casey.
The Americans, who started the tournament with a record-low 20 players, now have one player still remaining in each of the four brackets.
Woody Austin easily handled Boo Weekley, 3 and 2, to advance to play defending champion Henrik Stenson, who hung on to beat Jonathan Byrd. Stenson won his ninth straight match, the third-longest streak in the Match Play Championship.
Stewart Cink took advantage of sloppy play by Colin Montgomerie to deny the Scot valuable world ranking points, winning 4 and 2. Cink will play U.S. Open champion Angel Cabrera, who made six birdies on the front nine and beat Steve Stricker, 4 and 3.
Justin Leonard reached the quarterfinals for the first time and joined Cabrera as the only players to have not played the 18th hole after three rounds. Leonard dispatched of Stuart Appleby, 3 and 2, after running off five straight birdies at the turn.
Leonard will face Vijay Singh, who rallied from 2-down with two holes to play, then beat Rod Pampling on the 25th hole.
After a furious rally to survive the first round, and a far more comfortable win in the second round, Woods looked like he would have another short day of work when he won the first two holes with birdies against Baddeley.
What followed was match play at its finest, with both players giving away a few holes, and an explosion of birdies that made it clear to Woods and Baddeley that would be the only way to get ahead.
Woods hooked his tee shot into the base of a chollo cactus on No. 4 and tried to play out left-handed with an inverted wedge, but it was so far off line that it bounced off a knee-high wooden stake. One hole later, Baddeley returned the favor by pulling his second shot on the par 5 into a prickly pear bush, proving match play indeed can be dangerous.
Taking an unplayable lie, he tried to drop onto the flat cactus bush and have it roll into the desert sand. But when it stayed there, he stepped gingerly into the bush, and his shot hit the cactus.
The only other ugly shot was Woods' drive on the 13th, which tied the match.
"I just figured I had to make birdie to win the hole. If I didn't, I was going to lose the hole," Woods said. "It was that simple. And that's the way it felt. It almost turned out that way."
Baddeley took his first lead with a 12-foot birdie on the 14th, after Woods missed from 15 feet. From there, the Aussie played away from the dangerous slopes to the center of the green, making Woods beat him.
"He did all the things you were supposed to do when you have the lead," Woods said.
And Woods did what he usually does, starting with an 8-iron into 2 feet for birdie on the 16th to tie the match. And on they went, both reaching the par-5 17th in two for a putt at eagle, both finding the 18th fairway for a decent look at birdie on the 18th.
Woods could only think of one other match he played at such a high level, when he went the 36-hole distance with Mark O'Meara in the final of the World Match Play Championship in England in 1998.
He lost that match. Thanks to a 12th and final birdie, he now gets to keep playing.


From your other post you stated you are loading for a lever action rifle. The manual of the rifle should state the maximum overall length that the rifle will handle. Measure with the round seated at the first groove. If it is too long seat to the second one.
Also loading a dummy round to load into the magazine. Cycle the lever to see if it feeds.
Note you should not have to too wild with the crimp in the lever action. Though a firm crimp is needed to prevent too much set back.
No matter how many times you do it and nothing happens it only takes something going wrong one time to kill you.


text: This is our son, Kody . In 2003 he was diagnosed with Friedreich's Ataxia. I guess I should begin with the fact that I always deep down knew there was something not quite medically right with Kody. Most physicians I expressed this to thought I was just an overly worried mother. But I knew I wasn't. Its hard to explain. I had tried to get approval to take him to a specialist since he was a toddler....maybe 3 y/o. Finally when he was 7 y/o was fed up and told the physicians that I was demanding a referral. Kody was first referred to see a Orthopedic Specialist. (Because his main problem was his walking or as physicians say his gait was abnormal or ataxia as it's now referred to as.) That specialist thought Kody had Cerebal Palsy or CP for short. But he referred him to a Physical Medicine doctors to be sure. (I guess like a second opinion.) The PM doctor said that it wasn't CP but that it was something. He believe something neurological. So he referred us to Dr.Gyula Acsadi a neurologist who worked at Children's Hospital of Michigan. Well he knew right away what Kody probably had. So he ran genetic screening for Friedreich's Ataxia. 3 weeks later We got a positive diagnosis for FRDA. The date was 7/27/2003. And that is where everything began.

Jimmy Tarbuck becomes latest public figure arrested in Operation Yewtree child sex abuse inquiry
The comedian Jimmy Tarbuck has been arrested in connection with a historical child sex abuse inquiry and released on bail, it was reported last night.
The 73-year-old comedian was detained at his home in Kingston upon Thames, south-west London, and questioned for several hours following an arrest on Friday 26 April.
The arrest arises from allegations made to Scotland Yard officers working on Operation Yewtree, set up after the revelations about Jimmy Savile’s sex abuse.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said last night that the arrest did not fall under the Operation Yewtree investigation but that information received in light of the inquiry had been passed on.
A statement from North Yorkshire police last night said: “We can confirm that a 73-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a historic child sex abuse investigation in Harrogate. He was released on police bail pending further enquiries.'
Tarbuck launched his career at Pwllheli holiday camp in North Wales in the 1950s, and made his TV debut in 1963, becoming a familiar face thanks to a string of variety and stand-up series.
Police have arrested 13 men as part of Operation Yewtree, including convicted paedophile Gary Glitter, comics Freddie Starr and Jim Davidson, publicist Max Clifford, presenter Rolf Harris and DJ Dave Lee Travis. All deny any wrongdoing and investigations are continuing.

Bernie Fowler, left, receives a citation from the National American Legion for 60 years of service to the organization.
Prince Frederick, MD – Memorial Day 2017 proved to be perfect for a traditional early afternoon ceremony on the Calvert County Courthouse’s Veterans Green. Local American Legion posts, Naval Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (NJROTC) cadets from all four of Calvert’s public high schools, as well as cadets from the Calvert Unit of the Civil Air Patrol participated Monday, May 29.
American Legion Calvert County Commander Jay Bolles remarked that he has noticed more people attending Memorial Day ceremonies in the county and told the gathering “go and pass the word about what Memorial Day is all about.”
In an unexpected segment of the program, local American Legion commanders presented former state senator and Calvert County commissioner Bernie Fowler with a citation from the National American Legion. Fowler, a World War II veteran who turned 93 March 30, was honored for 60 years of service to the American Legion. Fowler, who has become famous for his advocacy for a clean Patuxent River, still marches with other Legion members in local parades and again participated in the wreath-laying ceremony.
Maryland Department of Natural Resources Secretary Mark J. Belton, a retired rear admiral in the U.S. Navy, delivered the Memorial Day address. Belton spoke of several service people who lost their lives, some outside the realm of conventional combat. One of those mentioned was Robert Stethem, a Navy Seabee diver. Stethem, whose family lives in Charles County, was executed by Hezbollah terrorists in Beirut in June of 1985. “He was killed by terrorists for what he represented,” said Belton.
Of all service men and women who had died in the line of duty, Belton declared, “we commend their lives not as the fallen but as the revered.”
Other event speakers included NJROTC cadets from Calvert, Huntingtown, Northern and Patuxent high schools and a CAP cadet and Daughters of the American Revolution John Hanson Chapter Regent Mollie King. As wreaths were laid at the green’s six monuments, a CAP cadet played Taps and American Legion Post Number 274’s Honor Guard performed a gun salute.
Civil Air Patrol cadets Abigail and Hannah Fisher sang The Star Spangled Banner.

Whether you are within a long-distance romantic relationship or certainly not, kiss russian beauty reviews it is necessary to know about the prolonged distance relationship statistics. A current study done by Fanny V. Jimenez of Humboldt University in Berlin uncovered that there was clearly approximately 12 to 15 million long-distance couples. Of these, just 8% of these had intercourse. Emotional cheating and posting personal information are the most popular reasons for cheating.
The study test included 335 undergraduate college students in LDRs who had joined the same spot. Of those lovers, 66 concluded their relationship while 114 continued their relationship. The conclusions are a indication of the challenges LDRs can present for the marriage. Long range relationships undoubtedly are a risky task for both equally partners, and understanding these types of statistics may help you decide whether or not to follow it. Long relationships have got a higher potential for resulting in divorce than a classic relationship.
Although women are usually portrayed simply because the sluggish sex, they are simply not as vulnerable to divorce and breakups when men. Research shows that women are more adaptable and deal better with length than men. Men, alternatively, are more immune to change. An actual separation might cause significant injury to a relationship. Regarding 33% of reunited addicts end up splitting up within three months following the reunion. Ladies are also more likely to experience physical resentment.
Long romances become more difficult to maintain, especially for individuals with long-distance partners. Studies have demostrated that only about 50 % of long-distance lovers finished up getting married. Several relationships happen to be committed and last for years, yet long-distance companions may not have time to keep up with the relationship. If you are committed and willing to knuckle down, long-distance human relationships have the potential to last.
Long relationships are costly. According to long distance relationship figures, approximately fifty percent of long couples think lonely and drift apart. Traveling to see your partner is normally not the sole cost engaged; phone bills and courier costs will go up by 2021. Even sending surprise gifts can be costly. In addition to the cost, time and energy involved in maintaining the long relationship will certainly test your commitment to each other.
Inspite of long-distance romantic relationship statistics, long relationships in many cases are more steady than short-distance ones. Lovers in long relationships portrayed larger levels of romantic love and idealism than their short-distance counterparts. Nevertheless , one-third of long-distance interactions end inside three months. For anyone who is in the process of starting a fresh relationship, going to a new city can be a good time to consider long-distance romantic relationships.
Although long relationships tend to be stable than close associations, the research also found that long-distance companions reported increased idealism, positive memories, conversation quality and romance than their short-distance counterparts. Lovers in long relationships have higher commitment than those in same-city human relationships. Nevertheless , long-distance romantic relationships can be troublesome, and there are plenty of risks and complications engaged. Therefore , it is crucial to understand the long-term features of long-distance interactions.

Quality by association across north-south divides: United States accreditation of Mexican institutions of higher education
Institutional accreditation in higher education presents a dual reality: Accreditation is intended to hold colleges and universities accountable through external evaluation and, at the same time, accreditation constitutes an opportunity for higher education leaders to assess, improve, and communicate the quality of their undertakings. In an increasingly global field of higher education, quality practices become diffused across national boundaries. U.S. institutional accreditation is one of the quality practices embraced around the world; institutions of higher education, particularly in the Global South, aspire to obtain U.S. institutional accreditation. While important, this phenomenon has gone largely unexamined in research. This study follows an ethnographic case study approach to explore in-depth how a Mexican institution of higher education engaged in the process of institutional accreditation with a U.S. regional accrediting agency. One Mexican university located only a few miles away from the U.S.-Mexico border was selected as the site for conducting this case study. The university obtained initial institutional accreditation in 2012, which presented a valuable opportunity for conducting the study. After analyzing line by line nearly 500 pages of documents and conducting thirteen interviews with faculty and administrators from the university, this project presents findings organized around four major themes: (a) Reputational value is a central motivation to pursue U.S. accreditation given that, through accreditation, the institution in Mexico becomes connected to internationally recognized universities; (b) while desirable from many perspectives, the accreditation process triggers a set of intra-organizational dynamics and stressors, chief among them is a complex division of labor in which faculty members are necessary yet distanced from decision making; (c) compliance with highly challenging--yet perceived as fair--standards legitimizes both accreditation process and the U.S. accreditors that are perceived as reluctant players in a process mainly intended to assist emergent systems of higher education; and (d) language and translation are significant concepts to understand the accreditation process as they also establish power relations in which proximity and similarity to the U.S. grants power to the candidate institution. Based on the empirical findings, different interpretations of U.S. institutional accreditation are discussed along with the implications of the study for policy, practice, and further research.

Are you curious to find out more about CBD oil? You’re not alone! Over the last few years, it has been gaining attention as a natural health product for its potential therapeutic properties. The oil has quickly become popular among those looking for an alternative treatment option due to its assumed benefits including pain relief, a decrease in anxiety and depression symptoms, improved sleep quality, and much more. In this article, we’ll provide you with everything you need to know about this organic remedy: from what it is and how it works to its various use cases and possible health benefits.
Table of Contents
What Is CBD And How Is It Different From Other Cannabinoids?
Cannabis plants, including hemp, contain different cannabinoids, of which cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are best known. These two cannabinoids have similar chemical structures that vary only slightly. Due to this insignificant variation though, CBD is less potent than THC, including Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC.
When derived from help, both cannabinoids are legal at the federal level so that you can freely buy your favorite Delta 9 products as well as CBD oil online and in brick-and-mortar stores. It is only important to check the local regulations because different states can have different laws regarding particular cannabinoids.
Unlike THC, which is only present in small amounts in hemp, CBD is found in great abundance there. The products based on it are highly varied from gummies and capsules to lotions and creams. But the most popular one is CBD oil. It is ascribed to have a huge spectrum of health benefits, which we’ll discuss in more detail in the next section.
Possible Health Benefits And Use Cases Of CBD Oil
#1 Reduce Anxiety
Research has shown that cannabidiol is successful in treating psychological conditions such as phobias, social stress, and generalized anxiety disorder. By acting as a natural relaxant and calming the brain, it can be an effective way to reduce worry and tension, while also encouraging mental clarity and focus. Plus, unlike traditional pharmaceuticals that may have unwanted side effects or addiction potential, cannabidiol oil is considered safe to use in prescribed doses.
#2 Relieve Pain
Another major benefit that has been widely reported concerning cannabidiol is relief from pain and discomfort. Studies have indicated that CBD oil can be highly effective at reducing inflammation, which can help lessen muscle soreness, joint pain, headaches, menstrual cramps, and other aches and pains. Furthermore, it may also provide long-term relief for people who suffer from conditions such as arthritis and chronic pain syndromes where inflammation plays a major role in the persistence or worsening of symptoms.
#3 Help with PTSD Symptoms
Cannabidiol has been, among all else, shown to have positive effects on PTSD sufferers, decreasing stress levels, improving mood, and promoting relaxation. Studies have suggested that cannabidiol-infused oil can be used for anxiety management in those with post-traumatic stress disorder as it helps regulate the activity of neurotransmitters associated with fear responses, thus reducing emotional waves of panic. Besides, the oil may boost sleep quality and decrease insomnia in patients with PTSD.
#4 Treat Skin Conditions
CBD oil has likewise shown promising results for those dealing with certain skin conditions. Studies have indicated that it can be beneficial for treating a range of skin ailments, including acne, psoriasis, and eczema. This is because it possesses strong anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation associated with these skin issues. Additionally, the antioxidant properties of the oil make it useful in neutralizing free radicals and stimulating skin cell growth and function aiding in the healing process. Cannabidiol helps to soothe dry, cracked skin by maintaining healthy moisture levels and preventing further damage or irritation.
#5 Improve Sleep
Finally, research has found that using cannabidiol oil helps to improve sleep quality. This is because it can increase levels of the body’s naturally occurring endocannabinoids, reducing physical discomfort and psychological distress that can keep people awake at night. It has also been thought to regulate a person’s circadian rhythm meaning its use is associated with better quality shut-eye during regular sleep times. Considering the importance of good-quality rest, or at least enough hours of slumber each night, this is particularly exciting news.
Tips for Choosing Safe Quality CBD Products
When selecting cannabidiol-infused products, it’s important to understand the quality and safety of what you are using. To ensure that your product is the best it can be, here are a few tips:
- Purchase from a reputed store only. A store, be it an online platform or a brick-and-mortar shop, must hold the necessary licenses and certificates. This will guarantee that the products have been checked for safety and have passed all quality standards.
- Look for products that are third-party tested. This is essential to ensure your safety. Third-party tests are vital when it comes to all sorts of natural supplements and organic remedies.
- Read customer reviews. This can give you an idea of the effectiveness of the product as well as any potential issues such as product authenticity or negative side effects.
- Pay attention to labels. Read all label information from ingredients to concentration to avoid any unwanted additives or contaminants.
- Speak to your healthcare provider. Not only do they have an understanding of your medical background and condition but they are also aware of the latest research in this field and will help to select an option that is both safe and beneficial to you personally.
To summarize, CBD oil has become more and more popular as a natural remedy for many ailments. While research is starting to show the potential of using cannabidiol, it’s important to remember that more research is needed to fully understand its safety and effectiveness. As with all supplements, consult your healthcare practitioner before using it.

Congressman Jim Moran is an old white Democrat from Virginia who thinks he can judge whether we minority conservatives are acting sufficiently non-white enough. Moran's an inveterate bully, a brawler, a crook and a bigot. And not one of his civility-preaching liberal colleagues has the courage to call him out.
Responding on cable news to GOP Rep. Allen West's blunt criticisms of President Obama this week, Moran derided the retired U.S. Army colonel, who is black, as "not representative of the African-American community." Moran then launched into the kind of tired race-traitor tirade I've heard from progressives of pallor for more than 20 years.
How dare we "people of color" stray from the left's ideological plantation? If we choose personal responsibility over entitlement, capitalism over statism or self-determination over identity politics, presumptuous white liberals appoint themselves spokespeople for our forefathers and deciders of our true destinies.
To wit: Lt. Col. West "just seems clueless now that he has climbed aboard ship," Moran fumed. "He's climbed this ladder of opportunity that was constructed by so many of his ancestors' sweat, sacrifice, blood, you know, they did everything they could for his generation to be successful. But now that he's climbed on board ship, instead of reaching down and steadying the ladder, he wants to push it off."
West, his father, his mother and his brother all dedicated their lives to military service; four consecutive generations of his family served in the U.S. armed forces. As a freshman congressman, West's message has been a compelling agenda of self-empowerment. For this, he is savaged by a House colleague as a racial saboteur?
But Moran was just warming up. Next, he contrasted conservative West with big-government savior Barack Obama, who he said acted in proper accordance with his ancestors "by reducing college tuition and training our workers, trying to get a decent job for everybody" and leaving a "constructive legacy."
Er, how's the savior's near double-digit unemployment, record food stamp enrollment, re-inflation of the housing and higher-education bubbles, and massive redistribution of wealth from the working class to the Wall Street bundler class working out for you?
Moran hailed Obama as "our Lion King" and compared his Republican detractors to the "hyenas in the background trying to cause trouble" for the White House. This bumbling chief of political correctness apparently is unaware that those hyenas in the Disney movie have been criticized for perpetuating negative stereotypes about blacks and Hispanics. Dog-whistle politics, anyone?
Do Moran's constituents in Virginia's 8th district support his incessant race-baiting? Last year, he accused Tea Party activists of racism for sweeping out entrenched Democrats in the November 2010 midterm elections. It "happened for the same reason the Civil War happened in the United States. It happened because the Southern states, the slaveholding states, didn't want to see a president who was opposed to slavery," he ranted to Arabic-language television network Alhurra. "(A) lot of people in the United States don't want to be governed by an African-American, particularly one who is liberal, who wants to spend money and who wants to reach out to include everyone in our society."
Yet, only two short years before, this hopelessly racist nation put Obama in the Oval Office with a landslide victory. Logic never was the demagogue's strong suit.
The aptly named Moran, an 11-term incumbent, continues to be rewarded by voters for his extravagant spending habits, self-dealing and diarrhea of the mouth. As I've reported previously:
-- While on the Alexandria (Va.) City Council, he was charged with casting a vote that helped a developer friend win a bid for a lucrative plot of public land. A special prosecutor concluded that Moran had violated the state's conflict-of-interest law. He sobbed as he pleaded no contest to a felony charge of vote-peddling. He received a year's probation for a reduced conflict-of-interest misdemeanor charge and was forced to resign.
-- In 1995, he had to be subdued by Capitol Hill police when he threw a punch at California Republican Rep. Randy Cunningham on the House floor. After the incident, Moran blamed "talk radio" for creating a hostile environment in Washington. That same year, he screamed "I'll break your nose" at Indiana Republican Rep. Dan Burton during a hearing.
-- In 2002, Moran revealed in financial disclosure statements that he accepted a $50,000 loan in January 2001 from an "old friend," billionaire America Online co-founder James Kimsey. The congressman claims to have paid the business mogul back at 15 percent interest over three months, and his spokesman emphasized the loan came with no accompanying quid pro quo.
-- Kimsey's gift came on the heels of Moran's disclosure that he had received another Big Business-tied loan: $25,000 from "old friend" Terry Lierman, a drug industry lobbyist representing Schering-Plough. After getting that unsecured loan at a lower-than-market interest rate, Moran co-sponsored a bill that would extend the patent on Schering-Plough's allergy medicine Claritin -- and prevent generic drug manufacturers from offering inexpensive alternatives.
Liberal busybodies are an annoyance. Liberal race-card abusers who lambaste patriotic minority conservatives to cover their own dirty deeds make my brown skin crawl.

I had a list of places to visit at
– temples and palaces, of course. We pondered about hiring a car or doing the rounds in an auto, but finally, it was the hotel manager who offered the best suggestion – hiring a cab! Indore has call taxis, Metro Taxis, which have sightseeing packages. A half-day package consists of 5 hours of travel in and around the city, and costs Rs.500/-. A full day tour costs Rs.800/-. They even have special packages for Omkareshwar, Indore , Mandu and Maheshwar. This, we found, was the most cost-effective way of exploring the city. You can hire a Metro Taxi by calling up their Call Centre at (0731) 4288888. For more details about the service, click here. . Ujjain
A Jain temple known for its intricate glass inlay work (as its name suggests), the Kaanch Mandir is right in the centre of the city, in the middle of one of the busiest cloth markets of the area. I was looking forward to seeing this beautiful temple, but since it was the Diwali week, some prayers were on, and non-Jains were not allowed inside the temple till the prayers were completed. We left, planning to look in later, but by the time we were through, we were too tired to visit the temple again, and decided to save it for another trip!
The gatekeeper told us that cameras were not allowed inside since it was a place of worship, but when I requested him, he allowed me to take a photo from the road, so here is a glimpse of the beautiful temple for all of you…..
One of the most popular temples in Indore, this temple is credited to Ahilya Bai Holkar, though it is believed that it is located at the site of another, ancient temple.
The temple is beautifully decorated, and crowded at most times of the day. The temple complex is huge, with shrines for every imaginable deity, from Ganesha (the main deity here) to Sai Baba of Shirdi (one of the newest additions to the temple).
Located on a small hillock, the Bijasen Mata Mandir on Bijasen Tekdi is a shrine dedicated to the nine forms of the Devi – Nava Durga.
There is a small pond opposite the temple, and the place is a popular picnic spot.
An erstwhile guest house of the Holkars is now a

Bada Ganpati Mandir
Built in 1875 by a resident of
Indore as the result of a dream, the Bada Ganpati temple houses the tallest Ganesha idol in (and probably the world!). the 25 feet tall Ganesha is made of some interesting ingredients: bricks, lime stone, a mixture of Gud (jaggery), methi seeds, soil collected from the seven Moksha puris: Ayodhya, Mathura, Maya (Haridwar), Kashi, Kanchi (Kanchipuram), Avantika (Ujjain), and Dwaraka, mud from stables of horse, elephant and cow, the powder of Pancharatna : heera (diamond), panna (emerald), moti (pearl), manek (ruby) and pukhraj(topaz), and the holy water from all major places of pilgrimage. The metallic frame is of gold, silver, copper, brass and iron. India
Inspired by the Meenakshi
temple of Madurai, the Annapurna temple is built by the Annapurna math with a South Indian style gopuram.
4 elephants support the main doorway, and inside the temple are shrines to other deities, as well as plaster reliefs depicting mythological stories.
The Lalbagh Palace of the Holkars on the banks of the
is spread over 71 acres of land. Built by Tukoji Rao I and later by Shivaji Rao and then expanded by Tukoji Rao II, the palace has been converted into a museum depicting the way of life of the Holkars. Khan River
From bedrooms to ball rooms, different dining rooms for Indian and western guests, studies and libraries, the rooms have all been furnished in their own distinctive style, and efforts have been made to give the visitor a glimpse of the royal life. However, the condition of the furniture in some of the rooms is pitiable, considering the grandeur of the palace. Photographs were not allowed inside, so here are a few glimpses of the sprawling acres…
Our final stop was at the central museum, where we expected to quickly go through the collection and rush back to our room for some much needed rest. The museum turned out to be a pleasant surprise, and we spent quite a while there, clicking pictures left right and centre! Paisa vasool for the Rs.25/- I paid as Camera fees!
Inside the museum are the usual exhibits of prehistoric men, dinosaurs, fossils, etc. The only thing that caught Samhith’s attention was the display of ancient weapons, especially bows and arrows. I found the exhibits very interesting, especially since I had no idea that Madhya Pradesh, especially
had so many areas of archaeological interest. Indore
The best part of the museum, however, was its wonderful collection of sculptures found at Hinglajgarh in Mandsaur. The beauty of the sculptures is absolutely astounding, and the sight of broken arms and legs and chipped off faces in some cases actually brought tears to my eyes….. What a pity that we have such wonderful treasures, but we can’t protect them and care for them!!!!
By the time we were through with the museum, we were just too tired to go anywhere else, and headed straight home to get some rest before boarding the train in the afternoon. There are more places to visit, especially the Rajwada, another palace of the Holkars, as well as the Chattris, the royal tombs, both of which deserve another trip!!

What was once a best-of-seven series, has turned into a best-of-three.
Splitting the first four games, the Red Deer Rebels and Regina Pats took a one day breather before renewing hostilities tonight at the Enmax Centrium.
With their Western Hockey League Eastern Conference semifinal series tied at 2-2, the series will come down to whoever wins two of the next three.
And for the Rebels to have success, they have to find some discipline.
“With the penalties we took, we shouldn’t expect to win this time of year,” said Haydn Fleury, Rebels defenceman.
“We have to tighten up those penalties in the offensive zone. We felt we’ve been a solid team five-on-five, we’ve done some good things five-on-five, but we have to stay out of the penalty box.”
In game 4, the Rebels took seven penalties. The Pats’ top-ranked power play, this post-season, capitalized on four of those short-handed chances. In game 3, the Rebels took seven penalties as well, but the Pats scored on two of those. This series, the Pats have scored 11 times on 25 power play opportunities.
“We’ve talked about discipline the entire series, myself included especially in that last game. Those two penalties were unacceptable,” said Rebels forward Jake DeBrusk. “I have to be better with my stick.
“Discipline has been the biggest thing in this series and their power play has been lethal. We have to stay out of the box and play them straight up and go to work.”
Goalie Rylan Toth, the Rebels starter for the majority of the season, returned to the lineup Wednesday night. He missed the last two months with a lower-body injury. He started as the backup behind Trevor Martin, but after Martin surrendered four goals on 22 shots he was pulled in favour of Toth.
“I’m not going to lie, I was a little rusty,” said Toth.
“I felt I was in good shape, but once you get in the game flow and when they have the puck in your zone for a while, it’s a little tiring. Overall I felt pretty good.”
Martin has started every playoff game so far for the Rebels. He said the guys in front of him helped him settle in and succeed this post-season.
“You can’t really control the decisions (Brent Sutter, Rebels GM/head coach) makes, you can only go out and play your game,” said Martin. “Toth, when he goes in, he’s a good goalie and we’re good friends on and off the ice. It’s a good competitive, friendly rivalry.”
Game 5 happens tonight at the Centrium. Puck drop is at 7 p.m.
Notes: Colton Bobyk has one more game left on his suspension for “his actions” at the end of game 3.

Could this be the deal that breaks the logjam — or is it a bluff that intends to break Nancy Pelosi’s public support? In his 3 pm ET address today, Axios reports that Donald Trump will offer to extend both the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program as well as temporary protected status (TPS) for his $5.7 billion funding for a border wall. Such an offer could reset the political ground, and might have some moderate Democrats in favor of grabbing what they can to end the shutdown:
The offer is expected to include Trump’s $5.7 billion demand for wall money in exchange for the BRIDGE Act — which would extend protections for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) — and also legislation to extend the legal status of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders, according to a source with direct knowledge.
CNN’s Jeremy Diamond confirmed the story a little later in the morning. Jonathan Swan reports that Mike Pence has been working Capitol Hill to get some kind of swap that will allow both sides to declare victory. Republicans aren’t the only ones working the aisles, however. Swan also notes that some Democrats have tried to work this from the other side by increasing border-security spending in their latest funding bill, intending to put pressure back on Trump to accept other security measures besides a wall:
House Democrats have added more than $1 billion in border-related spending to a package of funding bills that would reopen most of the government, even as President Trump said he would have a “major announcement” on Saturday about the border and the shutdown stalemate. …
The proposal to include more spending on border measures is scheduled for a vote next week, according to two senior Democratic officials. The plan reflects a shift in strategy by congressional Democrats, who have maintained that they would not give the president a counterproposal until he drops his insistence on a wall and signs legislation to reopen the government. It is an attempt to rebut Mr. Trump’s repeated portrayal of Democrats as opponents of border security and their denunciation of his wall as an embrace of open borders.
About half the money, $524 million, would be for additional infrastructure at ports of entry on the border, one Democrat said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because the plans have not been formally announced, while $563 million more would be inserted to fund 75 immigration judges, who adjudicate the claims of migrants who make asylum claims at the border.
That’s clearly going to be insufficient, even for public-relations purposes. The pressing issue at the border isn’t the infrastructure at the ports of entry; it’s how many people avoid ports of entry by crossing elsewhere on the 1900-mile frontier. When we’ve solved the latter, or at least greatly mitigated it, we’ll see more people presenting themselves properly at ports of entry, and fewer resources will have to be used to prevent entries elsewhere. At that point we’ll need more infrastructure spending at ports of entry, but it’s a question of sequencing and priorities.
Will Trump’s offer be any more effective? Possibly, because DACA is important enough to Democrats that Chuck Schumer initiated a government shutdown almost exactly a year ago to rescue it. He took a beating over it from his own constituencies when he retreated on the shutdown. DACA advocates have been waiting a long time for Democrats to deliver a win for the program, and it will be tough to pass this up. Plus, Democrats have been advocating hard for TPS extensions since the Trump administration began to cut them off. They would get two wins — albeit temporary — in trade for a portion of the wall. It’s going to be tough to explain to the “dreamers” that Democrats thought it better to leave them at risk of deportation rather than build a wall that won’t bother them one bit.
That might be enough for Pelosi’s frosh class in the House. Most of them came from districts that had elected Republicans in the past, and some of them won by pledging not to support Pelosi and her hard-Left agenda. Winning extensions on DACA and TPS while ending a very unpopular shutdown might appeal a great deal to them as we approach its monthiversary. If she turns it down, Pelosi might face a palace revolt within weeks of her installation as Speaker. With enmity running as high as it is between Pelosi and Trump, though, it almost seems impossible that she will accept any funding for the wall, period.
It’s a bit curious that Trump’s coming out with the first significant shift off of opening positions. The Art of the Deal author would likely remind anyone under any other circumstances that the person who blinks first is the loser in a standoff. In this situation, though, that might be reversed, given the obstinacy on both sides that have characterized this shutdown. Until 3 pm ET today, this has been Trump’s shutdown because of his insistence on a wall without any tradeoffs to benefit Democrats politically. If he makes this offer, it might change the political dynamic just from the reasonableness of the proposal.
Bear in mind, however, that this deal was obvious from Day 1 of the shutdown, and since last year’s shutdown too. Neither side had any incentives to help the other side save a little face until now. In fact, the DACA/TPS-for-wall swap is the obvious permanent solution, too: $25 billion for the entire wall project in exchange for a statutory DACA program and new parameters for existing TPS refugees. Both sides keep selling their voters on triumphalism rather than compromise, which is why voters look for disruptors rather than effective governance.
And that’s why we’re heading toward Month Two of the shutdown, unless Pelosi decides that half a loaf is better than none. Or more to the point, unless Pelosi realizes that she’ll own the shutdown if she doesn’t take the deal.


Schools around the world began reopening weeks ago, giving education leaders in the United States different playbooks to study as they wrangle with how to bring students back into buildings this fall.
While no other country has been hit as hard by the COVID-19 pandemic as the United States, the early stories of reopening schools in other countries signal a path forward. District leaders here can adapt strategies used by educators in other countries to maintain social distancing and keep students safe. Education Week spoke to educators in Australia, Denmark, and Taiwan to learn about the measures and precautions they are taking as students return to school.
New South Wales: Starting With One Day a Week
Educators in the Australian state of New South Wales were worried: After schools transitioned to remote learning in March, there was a significant reduction in calls to child protective services. They couldn’t guarantee the safety—or the learning—of some of their most vulnerable students.
To make sure students were regularly seeing their teachers, schools resumed in-person instruction one day a week starting May 11. That way, schools could maintain social distancing without restricting return to only certain grade levels. Students continued with distance learning the other four days. (Even during the shutdown, school buildings weren’t officially closed—but the government encouraged parents to keep their children home if they could.)
“We really felt that every student deserves that connection with their teacher, that there wasn’t a single year of schooling that we would want to miss out from that,” said Georgina Harrisson, the deputy secretary of educational services at the New South Wales Department of Education.
District and school leaders are confronting difficult, high-stakes decisions as they plan for how to reopen schools amid a global pandemic. Through eight installments, Education Week journalists explore the big challenges education leaders must address, including running a socially distanced school, rethinking how to get students to and from school, and making up for learning losses. We present a broad spectrum of options endorsed by public health officials, explain strategies that some districts will adopt, and provide estimated costs.
Individual schools could decide how to manage the rollout. Some had each grade level come in on certain days, while others divided students up alphabetically by their last name. The education department asked that schools consider keeping siblings together to make it easier for families, Harrisson said.
The department recommended that schools aim to have about 25 percent of their students on campus a day—giving them a slight buffer so that students who needed to, like children of essential workers, could be on campus every day. Schools were to try to keep class sizes between 10 to 15 students, depending on the size of classrooms, but Harrisson said that some schools repurposed bigger spaces, like libraries, into classrooms and were able to fit more students while maintaining social distancing.
Schools also took other safety precautions as students returned. They staggered arrival and departure times, as well as recess and lunch, to prevent crowds of people in one area. Custodians now also do extra cleaning of high-touch surfaces during the day, and enhanced cleaning at night. Playground equipment can only be used if it can be cleaned after each use, and water fountains are only to be used for filling up water bottles.
The education department also made sure every school has a thermometer in case students report not feeling well, Harrisson said. But the department has not recommended temperature screenings or that students or staff wear masks based on the advice of the state’s health department. Schools have also not made any adjustments to school buses and transportation.
“The main issue we’re trying to solve for isn’t the students,” Harrisson said. “Research into our early cases in schools showed a very low transmission rate in schools. Our main issue is … adult-to-adult transmission. Our main advice is about adults needing to socially distance during these times, that our teaching staff needs to think about the staff room differently. They need to not be gathering in the way that they might be used to gathering on site.”
On May 25, schools reopened full-time. Harrisson said starting with a one-day week allowed everyone to get “confident and comfortable in returning to school.” Also, if there is an additional outbreak of the virus, it will now be easier for schools to reverse course and go back to one or two days a week, she said.
“Having the phased return allowed us to give parents a strong signal of our expectations,” she said. “If this goes well and you work with us on this one day a week, there is another day coming your way, if not multiple days, if we get on top of the virus. It really helps with the behavioral economics of it—the behavioral cues you want from the community and their engagement and support of the approach you’re taking.”
Denmark: Students Stay in an ‘Enclave’
Students returned to the Copenhagen International School in waves and stayed in their classrooms in bubbles.
When the private school reopened on April 15, only prekindergarten and elementary students returned. On May 18, when the government eased restrictions, grades 6-10 returned, followed by 11th graders on May 27. High school seniors will not come back, as they have already met their graduation requirements.
When the first wave of students returned to school, strict social-distancing rules were put in place, said Sandy Mackenzie, the school’s director. Elementary classrooms were limited to 10 students and one teacher. To create these smaller class sizes, the school reassigned single-subject teachers (like art teachers) to act as homeroom teachers. (With more students now on campus, and loosened restrictions, elementary class sizes are now slightly bigger—up to 15 students, but mostly groups of 12.)
Typically, elementary students go to different electives and classes throughout the day. But now, they stay in their “enclave” all day. The single-subject teachers create lessons that either the homeroom teacher will lead or that can be played on the Smartboard. Instead of collaborative seating at tables, students sit at their own desks, which were initially spaced six feet apart. They each have their own classroom supplies, and there is no sharing allowed.
Students also eat individually packaged lunches in their classrooms, to avoid gathering in the cafeteria. The school has assigned bathrooms and entrance points to the school building to groups of students to prevent bottlenecks. Hand-sanitizing stations are at every entrance and exit. Water fountains have been shut down, and instead there are stations where students can fill their water bottles. The Copenhagen International School canceled school buses for the rest of the year. Students instead arrive by bicycle or personal car.
The Danish government has not recommended wearing masks. Mackenzie said he told students and staff that if they want to wear one, they can, but nobody has. The school does not check students’ temperature before they enter the school building. Instead, parents are told to keep their children home if they display any symptoms of COVID-19.
Recess still happens, with social-distancing measures put in place. Classrooms are split into smaller groups of five students each, and students are only allowed to play with the other children in their group. There might be multiple groups of students outside at once, but the children stay in their own bubbles.
“We can’t expect children to behave like adults,” Mackenzie said. “We still expect them to play.”
Even so, there are some restrictions: The school has removed all balls for sports and has limited contact activities. The school’s communications director, Ida Storm Jansen, told NPR that instead of playing tag, students play shadow tag, where children “tag” each other’s shadow so they won’t touch.
Before schools reopened, Mackenzie said teachers were concerned that students would struggle to follow the rules. Administrators told parents they would send home any student who is not complying with the social-distancing measures. However, other than the occasional time-out, educators haven’t had any issues with student behavior.
“The adaptability and compliance with the rules and expectations from our young people has been amazing,” Mackenzie said. His advice to school leaders in the United States: Focus on the core business of the school. Limit extraneous activities to keep the logistics “as simple as possible.” And try to maintain some normalcy for students so they feel comfortable.
“We’ve got to reassure each other and give each other confidence that what we’re doing is right,” Mackenzie said.
Taiwan: Masks Required at All Times
Masks are now a way of life at the Taipei American School, and that has eased the pressure of maintaining social distancing, school leaders said.
The Taiwanese government provides all adults nine masks every two weeks, and all children 10 masks every two weeks. During the school year, the private school gives staff members an additional five masks every two weeks so they can have a new mask every day.
“In this culture, a majority of people are very used to putting on a mask any time they’re sick—it’s the concept that I’m actually protecting everybody else, not myself; I’m more concerned about the community as a whole instead of my own personal preferences,” said Grace Cheng Dodge, the deputy head of school. “With this pandemic, it was very easy to tell the entire community, masks on at all times.”
The school, which serves students in prekindergarten through 12th grade, was closed for most of February and then stayed open—except for a two-week spring break—until summer break began on May 29. During that time period, families had to fill out travel surveys—if anybody in their household traveled to another country, or came into contact with another international traveler, then they had to report it to the school, and their child might have had to stay home for two weeks.
The school conducted mandatory temperature checks for everyone upon entering the school building or boarding school buses. Staffers did more than 3,000 temperature readings a day, said Larry Kraut, the chief operating officer. The school bought about 80 “thermometer guns,” and asked staff to volunteer to man the stations. (Hourly workers are paid extra.)
A student with a fever of more than 37.4 degrees Celsius (99.3 degrees Fahrenheit) would be pulled into a screening room where a school nurse would validate the temperature and, if necessary, send the child home. In 57 days of temperature screenings, only 10 students recorded a fever, Kraut said.
There are now also alcohol-based hand-sanitizing stations throughout the campus, and people are required to use them before entering the school building. That has been a large cost, Kraut said. Cleaning has also been ramped up: During the school year, surfaces are cleaned nightly with a bleach solution, and during the day, custodians use an alcohol-based solution to regularly wipe down high-touch surfaces like doorknobs.
The Taiwanese government has advised that people stay nearly five feet away from each other indoors—unless they’re wearing masks properly. Cheng Dodge said the school’s mask requirement has alleviated the pressure of making sure desks and chairs in classrooms are spaced far apart, but the school already had small class sizes.
The biggest changes have been made in the cafeteria, since students take off their masks to eat. The school rented tents for the courtyard to expand the eating area. Gone are the salad bars and buffet lines. Meals are now pre-packaged and sealed, and students are handed their lunch by a cafeteria worker so they’re not touching anything.
Students are still allowed to play during recess with masks on. Teachers remind students to take a break and drink water, so they don’t overheat. They call it a “chin break,” when students step away from the other kids and pull their masks down to their chins when they get hot, Cheng Dodge said.
Student-athletes are allowed to practice with their sports teams, although competitions have been canceled. If students are close together during practice, they wear masks, but if they’re running on a track, they can take the masks off and run several lanes apart, Kraut said. The school’s swimming pool, however, has been closed.
Other extracurriculars are continuing, too, with some tweaks. Students performed “The Little Mermaid” and “The Rainbow Fish” in full costumes and masks, to no audience—the performances were filmed for their parents to watch later at home. The student choir is still practicing, in masks, but spaced apart on multiple levels of the foyer. And student musicians can play string and percussion instruments, but no wind or brass instruments—keyboards covered those parts.
Now that the school year has ended, school leaders are looking ahead to the fall, when they will likely keep the same precautions intact. If families leave Taiwan during summer break, they are expected by the government to self-isolate for two weeks, and then the Ministry of Education added an additional seven days before children can return to school.
“We’ve just had to give out all this information and make people understand, if you make the decision to travel, these are the requirements upon return, and please be aware, we expect you on the first day of school—we don’t want anyone to disrupt their own learning and opportunities,” Cheng Dodge said.
Her strategy is “to give people the facts and the transparency and the data and all the information behind certain decisions. Hopefully, they’ll then make the best decisions they can.”

I wanted to write a bit about friendship for a while but didn’t really have any energy after hardly sleeping at all over the past few weeks. The last time I can remember having a proper friend, someone who I didn’t dread seeing in the street or hide when they came to the door, was when I was 11 years old. My next door neighbour and I used to hang out most days after school and during the holidays. We were both really into computers and I guess you could say, nerdy. We got on very well and had a good time playing out on the street with the other kids and spent probably longer than is healthy playing computer games together. He got me into adventure and strategy games which I still like today.
Once I started at secondary school we drifted apart. I was often depressed because of the huge shock of being around so many horrible people and probably wasn’t very good company. I did attempt to become friends with him again later on but he didn’t really want to know. He basically blanked me if I ever said hello at school, most likely because he didn’t want to be associated with one of the biggest freaks in school. I haven’t spoke to him in years now even though he still lives next door when he isn’t at uni. I’ve looked at his Facebook page and he is completely different now. I should really stop doing that, it only depresses me to see how much people have changed and moved on in life whereas I am still the same pathetic loser that I have been for years. I had some so called “friends” in secondary school but as I have mentioned in previous posts, they were just about as horrible to me as the others who bullied me and I never wanted to see them if I didn’t have to.
So over the past 12 years I have been effectively friendless. I didn’t even have any internet friends until December 2007. It’s hard being alone all the time. What little social skills I had have atrophied and I haven’t have any experiences that most people had as a teenager. People talk about it as a fun time that they spend being rebellious and taking the first few steps into adulthood. I basically spent the whole time at home with my parents. I never went out anywhere in the evenings, I only went to a pub with people for the first time a month or so ago. It is hard for most people to comprehend such a life, I mean it could have been a million times worse. I spend a long time each day feeling guilty about being depressed and anxious when I have life comparatively easy compared to 90% of the population. Having at least one friend is something most people seem to take for granted and I am constantly fearing that I will be rejected when people find out I am such a loner, in the truest sense of the word. I don’t know how to come up with excuses for the vast expanse of my life that is completely empty.
It has gotten to the point where I just can’t see anyone ever wanting to be my friend. This may sound like something an angsty teen might say, but I am 23 now and while people a lot younger than me are married, have kids and careers etc., I feel wholly inadequate. Not that I envy them for being married or parents, that’s not something I want right now! It is just so pathetic to be like I am at this age. I think I might be able to survive short term social interaction like I have done over the past few months, but there is really no depth to me or anything that would make anyone want to actually be friends with me. I don’t want to spend another decade like this…
2 thoughts on “Friendship”
i relate to this so, so much. my life has been very similar. i’m ashamed at the “emptiness” of it, and how inexperienced i am next to my peers. it makes it even harder to let people in, because i don’t want them to see how pathetic i am.
I’m sorry Ani 😦 I wish I knew what to say, but I feel the same *hugs*

Rosina Lozano is a historian of Latino history with a research and teaching focus on Mexican American history, the American West, and comparative studies in race and ethnicity. Her book manuscript examines the relationship between the Spanish language and citizenship in the century after the Mexican American War. The book comparatively analyzes monolingual Spanish-speaking citizens from California and New Mexico along with other Southwest states including Colorado, Arizona, and Texas. Lozano argues that a more detailed view of the shifting priorities of US citizenship emerges from analyzing the ways in which government officials targeted monolingual Spanish speakers and allowed them to participate as US citizens.
Lozano has an AB from Stanford University and an MA and PhD from the University of Southern California in history. She also holds an EdM from the Harvard University School of Education. She has received fellowships from the Huntington Library and the New Mexico Office of the State Historian. During the 2012-2013 academic year, Lozano held a postdoctoral fellowship from the National Academy of Education/Spencer Foundation that she completed at the Center for Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity (CCSRE) at Stanford University.
Lozano joined the Princeton faculty in 2013 and looks forward to creating courses on Mexican American history, the history of immigration, migration, and the borderlands, Latino urban history, and comparative history in race and ethnicity.
