On the same date the case file was transmitted to this Administrative Panel.
The Complainant has produced prima facie evidence of the following factual background and in the absence of any submissions from the Respondent this Administrative Panel accepts the Complainant's submissions as correct.
The Complainant is a holding corporation whose subsidiaries are engaged in financial services. Chase National Bank, the predecessor of the Complainant, was founded in 1877. On March 31, 1955, the acquisition of Chase National Bank was effected by The Bank of the Manhattan Company and the resulting corporation was known as The Chase Manhattan Bank.
In 1969, The Chase Manhattan Bank formed a one-bank holding company viz. the Complainant.
In the same year the shares of the Complainant corporation were listed on the New York Stock Exchange. On March 31, 1996, the Complainant merged with the Chemical Banking Corporation and the Complainant became what was then the largest bank holding company in the USA.
Since 1877, the Complainant, its predecessors and subsidiaries, have used the words "CHASE" and subsequently "CHASE MANHATTAN" as part of their trade name. Under its umbrella, the Complainant's subsidiaries provide a range of financial services world-wide. Among the services provided are credit card issuance and related services, mortgage banking, investment banking, corporate and small business lending, global asset management, personal and private banking, credit cards, consumer finance, custody services, cash management, investor services, and trust and other fiduciary services.
The Complainant is the registered owner of the USA registered trademark and service mark registration number 1,521, 765 "CHASE" in classes 16 and 36. Said registration was issued and placed on the Principal Register of the USPTO on January 24, 1989.
The Complainant and its subsidiary companies claim to have a physical presence in nearly 50 countries throughout the world. The Complainant has furnished a print out of what is claimed to be details of registrations and pending applications for registration of trade marks and service marks in various countries throughout the world for the following trademarks and service marks: "CHASE", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK", "CHASE ADVANTAGE CREDIT", "CHASE ADVANTAGE SMART SHOPPER", "CHASE ASSET BUILDER", "CHASE AUTOMOTIVE FINANCE + DESIGN", "CHASE BANK", "CHASE BY PHONE", "CHASE BANK OF FLORIDA (FL)", "CHASE BANKING 101", "CHASE BANKING CARD", "CHASE BASEBALL IS FOR KIDS", "CHASE BASEBALL IS FOR KIDS AND DESIGN", "CHASE BETTER BANKING", "CHASE BLOOD DROP DESIGN", "CHASE BUSINESS RETIREMENT MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT", "CHASE CASH ACCESS LINE", "CHASE CLASSIC CHECKING ACCOUNT", "CHASE COMBINATION ACCOUNT", "CHASE CONSOLIDATOR LINE OF CREDIT", "CHASE CUENTA CORRIENTE DE INVERSIONES", "CHASE CUSTOM", "CHASE CUSTOMER RESOURCES", "CHASE CUSTOMFIT", "CHASE DIRECT BANKING", "CHASE DIVIDEND SAVINGS", "CHASE ECONOMY CHECKING", "CHASE E PASSPORT", "CHASE EXPRESS", "CHASE FASTPAY", "CHASE FAXLINE", "CHASE FUNDS ALLOCATION UNIT", "CHASE GOLD", " CHASE HOME LOAN DIRECT", "CHASE HOME LOAN RESOURCES", "CHASE I-SOLUTIONS", " CHASE IMAGEACCESS", "CHASE IMAGEEXPORT", "CHASE IMAGESTATION", "CHASE INDIVIDUAL BANK + LOGO-SOLID", "CHASE INDIVIDUAL BANK", "CHASE INFOLINK", "CHASE INFOSTATION", "CHASE INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT CORPORATION", "CHASE INVESTMENT BANK", "CHASE LIQUIDITY MANAGER", "CHASE MANHATTAN", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK - NATIONAL ASSOCIATION", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK, THE", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK ESPANA", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (NATIONAL ASSOCIATION)", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (NA)", "CHASE MANHATTAN CORP INVESTMENT NOTE", "CHASE MANHATTAN OVERSEAS BANKING CORPORATION", "CHASE MANHATTAN OVERSEAS CORP.", "CHASE MANHATTAN OVERSEAS INVESTMENT CORPORATION", "CHASE MANHATTAN PROFITS FROM THE EXPERIENCE", "CHASE MANHATTAN VISTA FUNDS AND DESIGN", "CHASE MANHATTAN (Defensive name)", "CHASE MARKET INDEX INVESTMENT", "CHASE MERCHANDISE PROTECTION PLAN", "CHASE MIA", "CHASE MORTGAGE PLUS", "CHASE PAY BY PHONE", "CHASE PAYROLL CARD", "CHASE PERSONAL BANKER", "CHASE PERSONAL BANKING", "CHASE PREFERRED CLIENT SERVICES", "CHASE PREFERRED", "CHASE PREMIER", "CHASE PREMIER ADVANTAGE", "CHASE PREMIER + P DESIGN", "CHASE PRIME BANKING", "CHASE PRIME PLUS", "CHASE PRIVATE BANK", "CHASE PRIVATE BANK DESIGN", "CHASE PROFIT FROM THE EXPERIENCE", "CHASE RETIREMENT MANAGEMENT", "CHASE SMALL BUSINESS DIRECT", "CHASE SMART SHOPPER", "CHASE STAR", "CHASE STRAIGHT THROUGH", "CHASE STRESS-FREE CARD", "CHASE SUMMIT", "CHASE TRAVELLER SERVICE", "CHAST VISTA", "CHASE VISTA FUNDS + DESIGN", "CHASE VISTA FUNDS +LOGO", "CHASE (CHINESE CHARACTERS)", "CHASE (in Japanese characters)", "CHASE AND LINE LOGO", "CHASE AND LOGO-SOLID", "CHASE24TRADE", "CHASEBOND", "CHASEBUSINESSCARDS.COM", "CHASECONNECT.COM", "CHASEDEAL", "CHASEDEPO", "CHASEFUNDS24", "CHASEFX", "CHASEINVEST", "CHASELOCK", "CHASERS", "CHASESPACE", "CHASEXCHANGE.COM", "CHASE UNA BUENA RELACION ES LO QUE CUENTA", "THE CHASE BANK OF CYBERSPACE", "THE CHASE BANK OF THE INFORMATION HIGHWAY", "THE CHASE BANK OF THE INTERNET", "THE CHASE FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS CENTER", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK N.A.", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK NA +SOLID LOGO", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (NATIONAL ASSOCIATION)", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (NJ)", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (NY)", "THE CHASE MANHATTAN PRIVATE BANK (SWITZERLAND)", "THE CHASE UNIVERSAL ACCOUNT", "THE CHASE WEALTH MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT".
The Complainant has established a www site at the domain name "www.chase.com". The www site was initiated in 1996 and has grown to 1000 pages. The Complainant's "CHASE" trademark/service mark is prominently displayed on the Complainant's said www site.
There is little information available about the legal status or location of the Respondent. The Complainant has furnished the details which are available in the Registrar's WHOIS database viz. that the Respondent is located in Singapore, there is no street address or postal address furnished, neither is there any telephone or facsimile number for the Respondent. The only contact information available in said WHOIS database is the name and e-mail address of the Administrative Contact, Technical Contact and Billing Contact. The documents referred to in the Procedural History above were served on the Respondent by e-mail to said address.
that the Complainant is the owner of the registered trademarks "CHASE" and "CHASE MANHATTAN" and that the said domain name "chasemanhattancorp.com" infringes these marks; furthermore that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the said domain name; and that said domain name "chasemanhattancorp.com" was registered and is being used in bad faith.
In support of the claim that the Complainant is the owner of the registered trademarks "CHASE" and "CHASE MANHATTAN", the Complainant submits that it and its subsidiaries are the owners of the above referenced registrations and pending applications for trade marks and service marks throughout the world. The Complainant has submitted that it has systematically protected its marks by registration either alone or with other elements in more than 70 countries throughout the world. In support of these claims the Complainant has furnished a copy of the certificate of registration of said USA registered trade mark and service mark, registration number 1,521,765 "CHASE" and a copy of the certificate of registration of the Republic of Singapore registered service mark "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK" which is registered in the name of The Chase Manhattan Bank N.A., a company within the Complainant's group, in Part B of the said register in respect of services in class 35. The Complainant has also furnished a print-out of details of registrations and pending applications in more than 70 jurisdictions for the trade marks and service marks set out in the Factual Background above.
The Complainant submits that its "CHASE" mark is inherently distinctive and is the means by which the products and services of the Complainant are identified and distinguished from similar products and services of others. It further claims that through long, extensive and widespread use, the Complainants trademarks have attained broad consumer recognition and are protected as "famous" marks by USA law.
The Complainant further argues that it has continuously and extensively advertised and promoted its products and services using the "CHASE" mark throughout the USA, as well as internationally, by means of brochures and branch office displays, and through various media, including radio, newspapers, periodical publications, direct mail and the internet so that as a result of long, continuous and exclusive use, the "CHASE" mark has acquired a secondary meaning that is associated by consumers and the public with the Complainant's services.
Furthermore the Complainant states that it is clear that the domain name "chasemanhattancorp.com" is in all respects identical to the name of the name of the Complainant's corporate name with the exception of the definite article "the" which is of no significance to the analysis of whether the domain name is identical to a trade mark. In this regard the Complainant submits that this point was decided in Bennett Coleman & Co. Ltd. v. Steven S Lawani, et al (WIPO Case Nos. D2000-0014 and D2000-0015).
The Complainant submits that the Respondent has candidly admitted in an e-mail that the Respondent registered the said domain name "chasemanhattancorp.com" even though it had no legitimate interest in said domain name, and that it had registered said domain name expressly for the purposes of selling it to the Complainant or some other buyer.
The Complainant submits that the said domain name was registered on December 18, 2000, and on the following day, the Respondent contacted the Complainant by e-mail stating: "You are receiving this mail because our company Jehovah Technologies Pte Ltd. is in possession of your company internet domain name. We are an internet domain name trading firm distributing internet domain names across the cyber highway in mass quantity. You have been contacted because a domain name similar to your company name has appeared under our sales listing." The said domain name was listed on an auction site where a minimum bid of $20,000 (US) was solicited. The same transmission was received by the Complainant on December 23, 1999. The Complainant has furnished copies of these communications. The Complainant submits that these communications establish that the Respondent has no legitimate rights or interest in the said domain name.
In support of the Complainant's contention that the said domain name was registered and is being used by the Respondent in bad faith, the Complainant states that after receiving the foregoing communications, one of the Complainant's attorneys, accessed an auction site and determined that the said domain name was for sale at that site. The Complainant has furnished this Administrative Panel with a print-out of the relevant pages of the said auction site. Thereafter the Complainant's attorney communicated with the Respondent and offered to pay the Respondent's out of pocket costs for the transfer of the said domain name, but refused to pay the US$20,000 asked.
The Complainant has furnished this Administrative Panel with a copy of an undated e-mail which the Complainant claims it received from the Respondent in reply. In this e-mail, the Respondent offered to sell the domain name to the Complainant for what the Respondent described as being "a compromised (sic) figure of US$18,000 (US$2,000 deduction or 10% discount from the original price of US$20,000)."
"Our company Jehovah Technologies is a 'Private Limited' organisation with limited payable liabilities. When our corporate bank account reaches zero, corporate bankruptcy shall be announced.
Our company does not own any business space such as an office or building.
Our company does not own any transportation devices such as a (sic) automobile.
Our company does not employ any workers.
Our company possesses only a few hundred Singapore dollars in the corporate bank account.
If our company goes bankrupt, CHASE will have to provide additional legal expenditure in view of closing our company. A lawyer in your country cost (sic) US $250 per hour on average. According to past experience, such cases will require at least 3 months to conclude. Our statistics also show that the total amount of expenditure required to take full scale legal action against our company, Jehovah Technologies Pte Ltd. is approximately US $ 30,000 or more (not inclusive of legal fees, required by local authorities here, to close down our company and advertising fees needed to announcement (sic) of corporate bankruptcy over media sources such as major newspapers).
In relative words, Jehovah Technologies Pte Ltd. is a company represented by an empty nutshell. If things really turn out lousy for our company, we only stand to lose a few hundred dollars, our company name and the US$60 domain name. As for your company, it will cost you MORE than US $30,000 and US$60 domain name…"
The Complainant in conclusion submits that the Respondent's actions violate not only the letter and spirit of ICANN Policy, but offend the settled law of the United States as codified in the Lanham Act and interpreted by United States Federal Courts.
The Complainant seeks the transfer of the disputed domain name to the Complainant.
No submissions were received from the Respondent.
3) that there is no evidence of any exceptional circumstances applying to these proceedings.
This administrative panel is satisfied that the Complainant is the owner of the said USA registered trademark and service mark registration number 1,521, 765 "CHASE" in classes 16 and 36. In the absence of any rebuttal evidence from the Respondent this Administrative Panel also accepts that the Complainant and its subsidiaries are the owners of the trade mark and service mark registrations listed above in various countries throughout the world including "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK", "CHASE MANHATTAN", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK", "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK - NATIONAL ASSOCIATION" and "CHASE MANHATTAN BANK, THE".
Furthermore this Administrative Panel is satisfied that the said domain name is confusingly similar to said trade marks and service marks and in particular to the service mark including "THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK".
The Respondent itself has admitted that the said domain name is similar to the Complainant's corporate name in the statement in the Respondent's e-mails to the Complainant on December 19, 2000, and December 23, 1999, viz. "You are receiving this mail because our company Jehovah Technologies Pte Ltd. is in possession of your company internet domain name…You have been contacted because a domain name similar to your company name has appeared under our sales listing." This Administrative Panel is satisfied by the evidence submitted by the Complainant that the Complainant has acquired common law rights in its corporate name in addition to the rights it has acquired through registration and use of its various trade marks and service marks.
Having considered the Complainant's submissions and in the absence of any submissions from the Respondent, this Administrative Panel is satisfied that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interest in said domain name. This Administrative Panel is confirmed in this view by the Respondent's admission, in inter partes e-mail correspondence, that it is "a company represented by an empty nutshell".
Having considered the Complainant's submissions and the evidence adduced by the Complainant and in particular the e-mail correspondence between the parties relating to the negotiations for the sale of the said domain, it is clear that the Respondent has registered or has acquired the domain name primarily for the purpose of selling, renting, or otherwise transferring the domain name registration to the Complainant who is the owner of the trademark or service mark or to a competitor of that complainant, for valuable consideration in excess of your documented out-of-pocket costs directly related to the domain name.
Consequently this Administrative Panel is satisfied that the Respondent has registered the said domain name and is using said domain name in bad faith.
With reference to Paragraphs 4(i) of the Policy and rule 15 of the Rules this Administrative Panel is satisfied that the domain name the Respondent has registered "chasemanhattancorp.com" is identical or confusingly similar to the Complainant's trade marks and service marks, that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interest in respect of the domain name and that the Respondent has registered and is using that domain name in bad faith. Accordingly, this Administrative Panel decides and directs that said domain name "chasemanhattancorp.com" should be transferred to the Complainant.

PLEASE CONTINUE TO READ THE NOTES THAT I HAVE ADDED: NO LIONS... IF YOU DO A CROWN IT SHOULD BE ABSTRACT, NOT A STRAIT CROWN, THAT IS TO STANDARD FOR THE WORD KING.
I have three domain names that all flow together for a business coaching company I have put together, I am looking for a single logo that can work for all three as they will all be used interchangeably.
They are all about my clients becoming the KING of themselves, becoming fearless, mastering their own possibilities by becoming the King Of Possibilities, and generating a consistent ongoing and residual income for life that helps them become the King Of Freedom, giving themselves the freedom to live their lives how, where and doing what they want because money will no longer rule them but they will have the freedom because of their income.
I have been consulting for 35 years, this is a new motto and focus for me using these three domains and mantra's.
I need a logo that is an image of some kind, I am not so worried about the words of the three domains, but the image of the logo that will resonate with all three.
Bring your best, there will be more work to the winner.
THE IMAGE ATTACHED SHOWS AN EXAMPLE, I DON'T WANT A REMAKE OF THIS IMAGE, THIS COMPANY IS A COACHING COMPANY CALLED SOCIAL MONKEY BUSINESS, i JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU SOME CONCEPT, THINK KING, THINK A LOGO DESIGN THAT IS SERIOUS, BUT PLAYFUL, THAT WOULD LOOK GREAT ON WEBSITES, SHIRTS, BUSINESS CARDS ETC.
I am not loving anything with a lion or the letter K, you can play around with a crown, with some other image, fun, animated looking like the example I sent you, maybe a gorilla???

Johannes Weinrich (* 15. März 1793 in Uder; † 15. Oktober 1855 in Heiligenstadt) war ein deutscher Volkskünstler und Erfinder.

Leben
Er war der Sohn eines Kurschmiedes, der als Nebenverdienst ein kleines Gasthaus betrieb. Nach dem frühen Tod der Eltern absolvierte er bei seinem Vormund eine Schuhmacherlehre. Bereits früh zeigte er Interesse an der Musik. Er lernte als Autodidakt das Spielen der Flöte. Nach dem Abschluss seiner Lehre ging er auf Wanderschaft und erhielt in Straßburg Klarinettenunterricht.

Als er nach der Wanderschaft 1815 nach Heiligenstadt zurückkehrte, heiratete er die Tochter des wohlhabenden Handelsmannes Fontano und betrieb eine Schusterwerkstatt in der Stadt.

Inspiriert von der Maultrommel fertigte er Messingzungen an, montierte sie auf einem Holzkloben und erfand damit die Mundharmonika, die er jedoch nicht vermarktete. Danach erfand er noch eine Art Klappentrompete und eine neuartige Klarinette, die er selbst Psallmelodicon nannte. Die Klarinette verband er mit einem Windkasten, ähnlich einem Blasebalg, mit dem er Luft in das Melodikon blies. So konnte er Psalter und Choräle spielen und gleichzeitig singen. Mit seinem Instrument ging er auf Reisen und war sehr erfolgreich. Daneben widmete er sich auch der Dichtkunst, kaufte den bei Heiligenstadt gelegenen Iberg, auf dem er einen Aussichtsturm und eine Gaststätte errichten ließ.

Weinrich verunglückte 1855 tödlich auf seinem Grundstück am Iberg, als er anlässlich des Geburtstages des preußischen Königs Friedrich Wilhelm IV. einen  Mörser zündete, um mit dem Echo seine Gäste zu erfreuen. Als das Geschütz beim Schuss zersprang, traf ihn ein Stück der Kanone am Kopf, so dass er noch am Unfallort verstarb.

Ehrungen
Seine Zeitgenossen nannten ihn scherzhaft "Hans Sachs II." und setzten ihm nach seinem Unfalltod einen Gedenkstein.

Ray Roberts Southwest Art
Ray Roberts: From the Ocean to the Desert
Native son Ray Roberts paints the California landscape
By Bonnie Gangelhoff
Reprinted courtesy of Southwest Art
Ray Roberts, Monument Valley, Oil on Board, 25" x 30"
Ray Roberts is squinting as he stands near his portable easel on a sun-drenched November morning. He's eyeing the light as it illuminates the Glenmore Plaza Hotel, a lemon-yellow Victorian structure situated near the center of picturesque Catalina Island, just off the coast of California.
Roberts is a guest artist at the annual Plein Air Painters of America show and sale. He's one of 30 artists who are visiting here for a week to paint scenes ranging from the bustling Avalon harbor to the rugged island interior where buffalo roam. On this day, Roberts is painting one of his last works for the weekend's grand finale-a show opening the following night at the historic Casino building.
Ray Roberts, Joe's Horse, Oil on Board, 12" x 16"
The plein-air event draws painters from across the country, but Roberts is a native California son. Born in Santa Monica, he grew up in Tustin near Laguna Beach. "I remember a time when Southern California used to resemble Catalina's Shark Harbor," he says, referring to the island's remote, unspoiled harbor.
As a boy, Roberts says, he played in the undeveloped hills and canyons near his home. "That was before freeways and sprawling residential development," he says. "It was a time before everyone put up fences and walls."
Today, more than three decades later, Roberts is fond of capturing what remains of the magnificent, vanishing landscapes across the Golden State. And at 47, he is gaining increasing recognition for his efforts, winning a string of awards at various competitions around the country.
Ray Roberts, Matriarck, Oil on Canvas, 20" x 24"
As a member of the California Art Club, Roberts is currently featured in a show called Scenes of the Pacific at the club's gallery in San Marino. It includes works by 10 painters who offer interpretations of California's coastline and ocean. Each artist focuses on a particular aspect of the area where the sky meets the sea; Roberts' paintings portray the various ways the bright light from the setting sun plays on dark waters. "I like to capture the last bit of sun as it casts shadows-the fleeting light on the water," he says. Sunset Pacific is a good example.
Roberts finds a continuing source of inspiration in Southern California's golden light-the same light that attracted his painterly predecessors Hanson Puthuff and William Wendt to the area. Both Puthuff and Wendt were founding members of the California Art Club, which was established in 1909.
While Roberts continues to admire such early Southern California impressionists, he also looks to painters like William Ritschel for inspiration. Ritschel was a German artist who settled in Carmel, CA, in 1911 and became known for his seascapes. "I'm trying to achieve that same luminosity that Puthuff, Ritschel, and Dixon accomplished," he says.
Ray Roberts, Saguaro, Oil on Board, 20" x 16"
Roberts has left California twice, living for a time in Arizona, but ultimately he returned home. "I missed the golden light in California. It's one of the reasons I keep coming back here," he says. "Coastal mountains trap in the moisture from the ocean and the result is a glow, a beautiful golden light that is unique to the area."
These days he lives with his wife, painter Peggi Kroll Roberts, and their three children in the foothills of the Sierras, about an hour from Yosemite National Park. The landscape surrounding his home is sprinkled with grand oak trees and rolling hills, both of which he frequently paints.
Roberts also frequents the nearby high desert area on the eastern slope of the Sierras during his plein-air painting forays. "There's lots of rocks, sage, and beat-up aspen trees," he says. "It's dry, windy, and desolate, and they shoot a lot of alien planet scenes for the movies there."
Ray Roberts, Mesa Solitude, Oil on Canvas, 24" x 30"
It was during his Arizona years that Roberts developed his affection for scrubby desert terrain. "The bright, harsh light on the desert creates striking graphic shapes," he says. "It's what Maynard Dixon captured."
While Roberts is comfortably ensconced in his painting career today, he explains that things haven't always been this way. After graduating from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA, he worked as an illustrator for 15 years. Although he was unhappy with his career choice, he lacked the confidence to pursue his dream-a riskier career in fine art. "I was an artist in denial," Roberts says half-jokingly. "I thought illustration was a more responsible way to be an adult, but then slowly I began to see fine artists like Clyde Aspevig and Kevin Macpherson being willing to take the risk and succeeding."
He began painting in earnest in his spare time as well as taking classes from Len Chmiel and Mark Daily. By 1992 Roberts was selling enough of his own works to feel comfortable leaving his illustration career behind. He has no regrets.
As for the future, Roberts explains that his mission is to continue to grow as an artist. "I'm on an unfolding path, and I want to let myself evolve into a more honest and intuitive artist," Roberts says. "My goal is to reveal more of myself. Hopefully that will be evident in my art."

The Ishopanishad is considered to be the foundation stone of Upanishadic knowledge. It is said that the answer to all the important questions of life are to be found in this short Upanishad. It is an ideal book of Vedanta philosophy. Book of Wisdom is Swami Rama's commentary on these sacred scriptures that form the basis of spiritual thought in India. Serving as both an introduction to yoga philosophy and as a careful guide for scholars, this excellent study begins with a history of the Upanishads and explains:
The essential questions of the nature of God
The origin of ignorance and illusion
The levels of mind and consciousness
"Outstanding... even more appealing than the one by W.B. Yeats or Sri Aurobindo."
— The Illustrated Weekly of India
Swami Rama, the founder of the Himalayan Institute, was one of the most remarkable figures of the twentieth century. His teachings, publications, and humanitarian efforts have rippled positive changes around the world, and have brought yoga into the lives of countless people. He was born in northern India in 1925, and was raised from childhood by the Himalayan sage Bengali Baba. Swami Rama later received higher education in both India and Europe. From 1949 to 1952 he held the prestigious position of Shankaracharya in South India. He then returned to his master to receive further training at his cave monastery. In 1969 he came to the United States and established the Himalayan Institute. His best-known work, Living with the Himalayan Masters, reveals the many facets of his wisdom and his embodiment of an ancient Himalayan tradition.

This paper presents an innovative interpolation method applied to remotely sensed data, based on an appropriate check of the pixels that need interpolation and of the data points used for interpolation. The aim of the method is to project remotely sensed data on a Mercator grid (Datum WGS84) to obtain a highly defined raster image especially along the coastline, where the sensor footprint includes a portion of sea and a portion of land simultaneously.
This interpolation method is mainly based on checking the points acquired by satellite sensor before computing interpolation. This check is based on a criterion of suitability for interpolation depending upon satellite points and regular Mercator grid pixels. For this purpose, we defined some fixed geographical area formats that were accurately segmented into land-pixels and sea-pixels. This result was possible by developing a sub-pixel precise data navigation method for AVHRR (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) NOAA remote sensed data which uses automatic geographical correction. Moreover, considering the dimensions and the shape of AVHRR sensor lobe, for each satellite point the closeness to the coast is taken into account in order to identify mixed points.
Considering land-sea classification, closeness to the coast of satellite points and land-sea classification of Mercator raster image pixels, suitable points for interpolation are selected while unsuitable points are calculated again using close suitable points. The results show a remarkable enhancement in image definition along the coastline.
This method was optimised on a regional scale, in the areas of the Tuscan Sea and Tuscan Archipelago, and its operation was verified using SST (Sea Surface Temperature) images obtained with AVHRR data and also with artificial data. Such testing was carried out through a numerical comparison between images obtained using segmented and ordinary interpolation and also in situ data where present.


Friendships often end up shallow and weak when we are not careful with how we see one another. Friends are always subject to comparison, it can either be from one another but mostly it comes from other people. Either way, comparison can easily trigger a competitive spirit, because of it one tend to evaluate everything too much. It can be your grades, careers, family, possessions, and even physical appearance.
This is most especially when you and your friend are too much alike. For example, both of you are considered a noticeable beauty, you both do well in class, etc. That's why a competitive spirit is usually stirred up with a really close friend. It can be your best friend or your best friends.
Consequently, this kind of competition can go unnoticed because it is a gradual inclination. (Unless your purpose from the very start is to compete with your friend then it can really go unnoticed.) Suddenly those times when your friend got ahead of you or got more praises/favor than you will slowly become a constant visitor in your thoughts. And before you know it, you are starting to grow so uneasy and insecure every time it happens. Though there is also a possibility that when you start noticing it, you tend to deny it. Either way, it will only keep on growing unless it's confronted and addressed properly.
Therefore, friends should constantly remind themselves that they are friends and not opponents. Understand and accept that in every relationship there will always be comparisons and other challenges and threats, but it should not be treated with such importance. Also, be at peace and embrace your similarities and differences. Don't build a ranking system, instead develop a support system.
Having someone as your friend doesn't give you the exclusive rights over that person. You both have each other's lives, you both have other friends, and that some are not your friends; you both have the privilege of time and different sets of priorities; these are some of the things you ought to consider both for your friend/s and yourself.
So don't expect your friend/s to always be by your side 24/7 or whenever you call him/her. Your friend/s will probably do the best they can to be with you and help you (and so should you) but you shouldn't give your friend/s such a hard time if he/she fails from time to time. And don't feel betrayed when your friend/s is being a friend to his/her other friends. Even if you are best friends, you should understand that you are not his/her only friend.
The fact that you're greedy for your friend's time and attention is a clear sign that you're not really treating him/her as a friend but more of a personal attendant. Genuine friendship should be planted in a fertile soil called trust, love and selflessness; it will wither and die if it's caged.
Everyone has the right to express his/her emotions, but no one should use it as an excuse to be bitter and inconsiderate. Holding on too tightly to our right to feel can ignite all sorts of problems.
To be entitled with a right is great power, and as they say, "with great power comes great responsibility." Therefore, you ought to be responsible with your emotions, don't let it overpower you. Also remember that if you can feel then others can, too. Give equal importance to other people's feelings specially your friend's.
When you get hurt, cry and let it out, then afterwards forgive and heal. When you're the one who caused the hurt, let them cry and let it out, and accept what you will hear with all humility. Then ask forgiveness and heal. When you're offended, speak up, then listen, forgive and heal (vice versa). Learn to control your emotions and learn to respect others. Yes, you have the right to express your hurt but don't express it by hurting other people such as your friend.
Friendship isn't always sunny, that's why you have to be ready to put up an umbrella when it rains, to be prepared to get your new shoes muddied when it pours, and to be able to hold up the foundations that it's strong enough to go through a storm. Emotions come and go, keep your eyes and heart on what really matters.
One can see so much passion and fire during beginnings, it's when time passes and things get all too familiar that only little embers are pressing on for survival. A reality but not a certainty, while it's often the case it shouldn't be the verdict. Such indifference in familiarity fades the color of vibrant friendship.
Old friends and new friends are both friends. You don't put expiration dates on people whom you care for. They are not old stuff that are put on shelves to gather dust, they are people whom you shared wonderful memories with, people who aided or challenged your growth; they are your friends.
Also, distance is never really an antagonist in friendships nor is proximity always a protagonist. Its genuine care and commitment that will keep your friendship growing and always new. So don't ever get bored of listening to your friend's stories, don't ever get tired of putting your arms around him/her when he/she is broken, and don't exchange the thrill of your adventures together for anything. Most importantly, don't ever get tired being a true friend.
There's no such thing as a perfect friend, only a true friend.

dodgers.com/chevy – Chevrolet 2012 Think Blue Malibu Sweepstakes. Car sweepstakes have always been popular with my readers. In fact car sweepstakes and cash sweepstakes are sharing the first place for the most popular contest on my website. Everyone needs money and a beautiful car to drive. A new marketing promotion sponsored by General Motors LLC and promoted by MLB Dodgers Baseball. You could win a brand new Chevy Malibu Eco and Dodgers tickets in the Chevrolet 2012 Think Blue Malibu Sweepstakes!


The purpose of this website is to provide teachers with a resource page for identifying professional organizations, professional journals, and sources of inspiration for creating or maintaining motivation for teaching.
Teachers are almost always exposed to content about student motivation, as they should be. However, very few teachers are provided with any instruction on teacher motivation, i.e., how does one get motivated or maintain one�s motivation for teaching?
As an Educational Psychology professor I was challenged with this omission. I teach aspiring teachers about student motivation and I have a plethora of resources to draw from on the topic. Every Educational Psychology text has one or two chapters on student motivation. However, I have yet to identify an Educational Psychology textbook (or any Educational textbook) that has a chapter or even a section on teacher motivation.
-join a professional organization and attend professional conferences.
-stay abreast of new teaching methods and research by regularly reading professional journals.
-schedule �brown bags� with their peers to discuss teaching ideas and issues.
-identify a mentor who is open to discussing teaching ideas and issues when needed.
-identify some �inspirational� aids so that you have something to re-energize yourself with on bad days or when you are in a slump.
-engage in self-reflection about your teaching and subsequently set goals for improving your teaching.
-have your teaching evaluated periodically by administrators and peers.
-solicit regular feedback about your teaching from your students.
-view teaching portfolios, additional education and certifications as opportunities to improve and not a dreaded task to be completed with the least amount of effort possible.
-last, take the theories you were taught to apply to student motivation and apply them to yourself.

Q: SQUID SERVER (or whatever) HTTPS to HTTP I am not too familiar with Squid or IPTABLES, I have an idea that this will work but I cannot find a good example via Google. In a nutshell, I am trying to mimic an SSL Accelerator. Like a Sonicwall... but without spending thousands of dollars on it.
I want setup a secure external connection over HTTPS and forward that connect as HTTP to an internal IP. I will explain in the shortest/easiest fashion possible.
CLIENT CONNECTS <--> HTTPS ENCRYPTS EXTERNAL CONNECTION (PORT 443) on external IP 123.456.789.012 <--> DATA IS FORWARDED (PORT 8080) TO INTERNAL IP 10.11.12.13.

Any help, I swear I am not being lazy, just really confused.
P.S. This is on a centOS box, I am a FreeBSD guy, so that might be part of my struggle (the commands are a little different here).

A: You might want to look into either of nginx, Apache with mod_proxy or pound.
Most prefer nginx, bit pound is also à good choice.

A: Nginx configured as a reverse proxy would be a good choice for something like this. Install it on another server or VM and configure the Hosts section of the configuration (much like Apache) to serve up HTTPS requests for your desired hostnames. The only difference is that you will not have it serve up the requests directly, but will fetch them from your internal HTTP server and relay the request back to the original requester via HTTPS.
There's a good article on how to specifically set up an Nginx reverse proxy, including serving via SSL, here:  https://www.techandme.se/set-up-nginx-reverse-proxy/
Or, searching for "how to set up Nginx as a reverse proxy" will return many more.

Alexander Mehran, Sr., Chairman of the Board, and Alex Mehran Jr., President and CEO, Sunset Development Company
Roy Carauta, Assistant Chief Engineer, Bishop Ranch
When Masud Mehran founded Sunset Development Company in 1951, a sign that read "San Ramon, Population 100" could still be found at the edge of town. Decades later, San Ramon is a full-fledged city and Sunset's leadership is in the capable hands of Masud's grandson, Alex, who oversees Bishop Ranch, City Center Bishop Ranch and the forthcoming CityWalk. Along the way, they've maintained close ties to the city and their tenants, creating a business destination unlike any other in the Bay Area.
I've been with Sunset for 35 years. Masud was a great inspiration. He had an uncanny ability to make things very clear with very few sentences. Bishop Ranch has adapted to the times. When you have something that is family-oriented, there is a connection and a personal investment versus a large corporation that you work for 20 years and never get to meet the CEO in person. Management has stayed very engaged and accessible to employees and tenants, even as they have grown so much.

Bishop Ranch, home to companies large and small for more than four decades, today is a thriving multidimensional community with a modern downtown and easy access to outdoor activities. Most recently, development has begun on the first of its residential communities.
More than 600 companies have chosen to locate and build their futures here, drawn by the high quality of the buildings in their park-like settings and by the long list of amenities that sets Bishop Ranch apart: award-winning transportation options, a world-class conference center, a range of medical services, health and wellness programs, a weekly farmers market—and so much more. Offering an unmatched range of programs and services is central to the goal of enhancing the personal as well as the professional in every employee's life.
And with City Center Bishop Ranch, the luminous Renzo Piano-designed open-air center, San Ramon boasts an inviting downtown with unique shopping, dining and entertainment options. Do a few laps in the rooftop pool at Equinox, before or after some shopping around the one-acre Alexander Square. Enjoy a filet at LB Steak, a bowl of pho at The Slanted Door, or a cold one on the patio at Fieldwork Brewing. Or maybe an afternoon scoop with the family at Salt & Straw. The square invites you to wander, to linger, to discover.
Lastly, with the recent commencement of CityWalk, residential neighborhoods are being added to complete the vision of the modern, holistic community, making Bishop Ranch among the region's most desirable places to live. The initial phases of CityWalk, an easily walkable, vibrant community, will welcome residents in fall 2023 and over the years total 5,600 homes. CityWalk will be a beautiful, pedestrian-friendly, transit-oriented district where people can shop, dine, socialize and enjoy proximity to the outdoors—all while making their homes within a short walk or bike ride from the workplace.

Why a dictionary?
When you can't find the words you're looking for, invent your own.
More and more, employees want flexibility in the way they work and offices that are as convenient as their homes. We wanted a language that reflects these ideals. Professional yet personal. Technical but accessible. And most importantly, very now.
Bishop Ranch has always believed that a fulfilling work life starts at home. And now the research supports it. When employees are provided with the opportunity to buy a home, build a family and envision a future for themselves, they are more productive.
We need office space that allows us to achieve all of our dreams, not just our professional ones.
That belief has always been important to Bishop Ranch and will continue to guide us through the next phase of our evolution in San Ramon. We hope you'll join us as we envision a new way to work in the Bay Area.

Big Al and his once vaunting slider has sure fallen. was a time he had probably the best one in the game and now he bounce around organizations.. real shame.
I haven't seen him pitch recently: has his slider really regressed a lot, or has his overall control gotten a lot worse? He still apparently throws hard judging by the strikeout numbers. Velocity alone will sometimes keep a guy employed, will it for Al Al? I always liked watching him pitch, if only because you knew something was going to happen, good or bad.
I think he needs to try the KBL for a year or two and reinvent himself. An ideal candidate.
If you look back at top prospect lists from 2011, 2012, or 2013, it looks like we overvalue prospects nowadays as most of the top 10 guys haven't even made an impact at all let alone the other top prospects.
So what does that mean? He has crazy plate discipline but really bad luck or he only knows how to pop up? That IS weird. Maybe he has a very predictable strike zone? Pitch him up and in and he pops it to shallow left?
AA, the walk off balk man.
Wow I remember when Dominic brown was tearing it up he had something like 27 homeruns at the all star break. How the mighty have fallen.
I don't know if I would call him "mighty." He was basically Chris Shelton for an extra couple of months, albeit with a better pedigree which got him a much longer leash to prove he wasn't a fluke. Unfortunately for him, he pretty much did prove he was just a fluke.
It's an entire post devoted to guys who were extra players in your Strat-O-Matic card sets.

Mr. Robert Watene from KPA and ICS East Africa Branch Chairman giving his speech during the stake holders' dinner at the Mombasa sports club.
The branch organised the dinner with the aim to acknowledge the crucial role the stakeholders' play in supporting the professional training offered by the Institute.
The Branch explained to the stakeholders how the Institute had played a role in supporting the local shipping industry advocating professionalism in commercial shipping.
The chairman called on, all the industry players to go an extra mile and sponsor their employees to pursue the Institute programs.
He did emphasise that, shipping is dynamic in the sense that every year there are new developments unfolding and it is therefore prudent for stakeholders to keep up with the latest developments.
As example the Chairman mentioned the recent change to the government directive according to which all import cargo will have to be insured locally. This is a shift in the tradition whereby goods were imported on CIF terms but had to be on FOB terms. As industry players; he noted that, it is prudent to keep abreast with the latest developments in the industry. The chairman advised the stakeholders to enrol their staff on Institute programs and also encourage them to attend seminars and workshops conducted by the Institute local branch.
Several key guest speakers among from KPA and KMA thanked the East Africa Branch for partnering with them and promised to sponsor their employees to enrol on Institute programs. Later on, the dinner provided the opportunity for everyone to network.

Harassment in the workplace what should employers do
Harassment in the workplace – what should employers do?
The recent news stories about sexual harassment, such as the allegations made about the behaviour of some MPs in Westminster and the Harvey Weinstein scandal, have raised serious questions about the type of behaviour that goes on in the workplace. In this article we look at the topic of harassment and what policies employers should implement, as well as the procedures to best deal with any cases that may occur.
Sexual harassment has been discussed at length recently and can include such behaviour as touching, standing too close, asking for sexual favours and making decisions on the basis of sexual advances being accepted or rejected. But harassment is not restricted to actions of a sexual nature. Indeed, harassment is defined under the Equality Act 2010 and refers to unwanted conduct in respect of a relevant protected characteristic (these are gender reassignment, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, age and disability), which has the purpose or effect of violating an individual's dignity or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for that individual. This may include behaviour such as ridiculing or demeaning someone or spreading malicious rumours, as well as the above mentioned unwanted sexual advances.
It is important that employers seek to curb any type of behaviour amounting to harassment within their organisations because, if left unchecked, problems can occur. Low morale, bad performance, poor productivity, resignations and reputational damage are serious concerns for all businesses, thus it is in every employer's best interests to provide a safe, healthy and fair place in which staff can carry out work. So what can employers do?
Employers should look at establishing a workplace policy that contains a clear statement that harassment is unlawful and will not be condoned. Examples of unacceptable behaviour should be outlined and a statement made that such actions may be treated as a disciplinary offence. It is crucial that complainants are given confidentiality or they may be reluctant to come forward and investigation procedures should be explained clearly.
In responding to any complaints raised, employers should always take them seriously and investigate objectively and in good time. All the circumstances surrounding a claim should be scrutinised before a conclusion is reached. Depending on what has taken place, it may be that the matter can be rectified informally whereby a discussion can result in a greater understanding and assurances that the behaviour in question will not happen again. Counselling can also help in resolving complaints, particularly where investigation shows no need for disciplinary action.
However, there may be instances where informal resolution is inappropriate and the matter needs to be dealt with as a disciplinary issue in line with the employer's formal disciplinary procedure. In these situations, an employer must follow a fair procedure in respect of the complainant and the accused. In terms of penalties, if the case is proven, written warnings, suspension, transfer or dismissal may be appropriate.
Everyone deserves the right to be respected and treated with dignity whilst at work. Employers have a responsibility to ensure this right is protected and should implement policies to make sure this remains the case, whilst taking any allegations that are made seriously.
We can help you establish and manage your procedures to ensure that you comply with the law. Please contact a member of our employment team for further information.

Whatever you do, don't try this at home — or on a beach near you. This is some next-level coparenting, y'all, and it's not for the faint of heart.
Kourtney Kardashian and her ex, Scott Disick, and their kids are spending the holiday together in Mexico — with Scott Disick's girlfriend, model Sofia Richie. Richie and Disick have been dating (Instagram-officially) since September 2017.
"This is co parenting done right," the fan tweeted along with another fan's Instagram pic of the entire blended KardashDisChie (yeah, we'll have to work on that) fam, dining in Cabo San Lucas on Dec. 22. Yup, including model Sofia Richie, whom Disick has been dating for some time.
Pretty sure coparenting looks different for most other ex-couples, but hey, we're here for it. Disick also posted a shot from the holiday vacation, in which he's seated on a lounge chair between his bikini-clad ex and similarly attired girlfriend.
"What more can a guy ask for. THREE'S COMPANY," Disick wrote.
Kourtney Kardashian told You magazine in 2016 that coparenting with Disick is no big thing to her.
Mexico and margaritas for Christmas definitely beats Southern California zoos and paparazzi. Good luck, kids. Keep on keeping on with the coparenting.

Steve, your post is fascinating. I respectfully disagree with you that it is unnatural for humans to be selfish: I believe it is more natural for us to be selfish than unselfish. We must work and even fight to be unselfish–and care FOR, care ABOUT, and to be CAREFUL WITH one another. Enjoy the following poem.
Our goodness starts with our heart to care.
And that my friend is why we must always care.
