It was a happening trip to Chennai - spent two rocking days doing busfanning. The first days roaming literally burnt me - my complexion changed dark. At the sun set on the second day, it was time for me to get packing. The ticket for my return journey was booked long back - much before I book the ticket for my onward journey. I am still not sure about the rationale for selecting VRL - but I chose it and booked the ticket through their website, getting a 5% discount on the rate. The bus was almost empty when I booked the ticket. I somehow like the VRL website for its simplicity, and limited use of graphics/images.
A few hours to go for my bus, my phone beeped... "BINAI SANKAR Your Bus Number is KA25D1403 Departures from Koyambedu(OMNI BUS STAND)". I was happy - its a new bus for me! I had nothing much to do in my hotel room - so checked out, and headed to the restaurant downstairs for a good dinner. After dinner, I took an auto from my hotel to the Omni bus station - it was just a short distance away, but had luggage. My bus was still about an hour away - so just kept walking around the bus station without any aim. The bus station was almost deserted - most bus bays were empty. I was actually enjoying wandering around the empty place. The KPN bays were active - they had a lot of buses at that time, and most of them were monsters aka Multi-axle Volvos. After some time of roaming around, I reached back outside the VRL Agent in CMBT -Senthil Travels. Showed the ticket there and waited outside the shop.
The NJK Mercedes Benz sleeper to Coimbatore was parked there. Around 2300hrs, I saw my bus rolling into the bus station. Boarding started immediately after it came in - I was surprised to see that majority of the passengers were boarding from CMBT - I thought Central would contribute the maximum. Boarding was swift - the driver was checking the tickets at the door itself. I understood that there was only one driver and one attendant - that's actually a good idea for such a short route. I settled on my seat as the attendant came around to take a headcount - he gave a go ahead, when a passenger got off the bus to use the washroom. We started off at 2317hrs, as soon as the passenger came back. That was a two minute delay at the origin.
The bus slowly crawled out of the bus station and got on to Ponamalle High Road. The driver stopped just after the flyover to talk to another VRL bus there (the AC Sleeper which left just before us). The talk was short - the bus got moving quickly. The driver was lugging the engine big time - it was making a hell lot of noise and was vibrating madly. A couple of KaSRTC buses overtook my bus with ease - now that was something I really was shocked at. Given the way the bus was being driven, I had no hope of making it to Bangalore anywhere close to the scheduled arrival time. I decided to make good use of the slow run - had a very nice, continuous sleep.
I woke up around 4AM, and the bus was nearing a toll gate - I was sure we were at Krishnagiri. Did not want to waste time - so just closed the curtain and continued my sleep. I woke up again around 25 minutes later - and had the shock of my life - we were running through Singasandra then! OMG! So the toll gate I saw was Attibelle, not Krishnagiri! By the time I came to my senses, the bus rolled past my stop - Bommanahalli! My co-passenger was still asleep and I really had to struggle to wake him. By now, the attendant shouted out "Silk Board". I finally got off there at 0435hrs. The Scheduled arrival in Bangalore is only 0530hrs!!
End remarks: The bus, KA-25-D-1403, was maintained in fairly good shape. The odo reading was around 2 lakh kms - did not really note down the number. The interiors were in good shape - the seats had fake-leather/canvas upholstery. The driving was awful - he lugged the engine badly - but maintained time. The end-to-end running time came out to a comfortable 5h18m only! The ride was very sleep friendly as well, and the icing is a stable fare structure! I feel VRL is one of the best bets on this route - the driving is very sleep friendly and fares are really proportionate!
Will I take this service again? Sure! Will be my priority on this route.


WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell introduced legislation today to help rural communities harmed by Obama Administration policies that restrict access to rural lending opportunities. Sens. Dean Heller (R-NV), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), and Rand Paul (R-KY) are original cosponsors of the Helping Expand Lending Practices in (HELP) Rural Communities Act, which would provide rural communities with better access to credit opportunities that can help grow their local economies.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) – created by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act of 2010 – permits certain rural lending practices in areas it deems 'rural' or 'underserved.' However, as many rural communities have noted, the current definition of rural as established by the CFPB excludes a significant number of demonstrably rural areas and neglects to provide rural communities with any input in the process. The CFPB recently put forth a proposal to revise its definition, but once again, it neglected to seek input from rural communities themselves.
The HELP Rural Communities Act would create an appeals process that would allow constituents to petition the CFPB with important local information for reconsideration of their status. This would give rural counties across the country a voice when the CFPB has incorrectly labeled them as 'non-rural.' The bill also takes important steps to address the challenges rural communities face by eliminating arbitrary mortgage origination requirements that will ensure that rural communities bordering urban areas are still able to access credit services that are essential to rural small businesses and farmers.
'The HELP Rural Communities Act is a common sense piece of legislation that would help rural communities obtain their housing needs. I vehemently oppose the actions of overzealous bureaucrats who are limiting financing options in our rural communities. I am proud to work with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to expand housing options in rural Kentucky,' Senator Paul said.

My company helps businesses build custom apps for their YouTube Promotions .The longer the video is, the less likely it is it will be watched. Everybody who gets to deal with website promotion in the search engines knows how challenging it is these days. Since competition in Google search results is immense, it takes a lot of time and efforts to get there with standard optimization methods. Â You can also include links to all of your social media channels.
Web site promotion relates to any steps taken by a company or individual to promote their site on the Internet. Web site promotion includes any measures taken to help increase the positioning or ranking of a site within search engines or directories. YouTube is one of the best Social Networking sites for website promotion. You can expect a big increase in your website business from the effective use of Face book. This guide will help you develop your Face book account to start sending more traffic to your site. Think of a YouTube video as a visual article. With some simple video equipment, you can make a video showing people how to do things related to the products or services you sell. When people look for that information online, they will come across your video and be introduced to your company.
8 MASSIVE BENEFITS OF USING YOUTUBE FOR BUSINESS
As a small business, you must continually think of ways to get your products and services in front of as many people as possible, all without breaking the bank.
Using YouTube for your business can be a cost-effective way to grow it, if used regularly as part of your marketing strategy. Online retailer ModCloth drove 4000 subscribers and 1 million YouTube views, resulting in more sales, for just a ninth of the cost of their average search campaigns.
Not sure if YouTube can help grow your business? Here are 8 benefits that YouTube can provide to your business.
1. Tap Into The Horde of YouTube's Traffic
Online video is growing exponentially, with over 4 billion videos viewed daily. If you use YouTube for your business, you can easily reach your audience, both by creating videos and advertising on other people's videos.
* YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine and the 3rd most visited website worldwide, behind only Google and Facebook respectively.
* 1 billion people visit YouTube each month globally
* 100 hours of video are uploaded every 60 seconds to YouTube
* According to Nielsen, YouTube reaches more US adults aged 18-34 than any cable network
Video-streaming platforms like YouTube have become so big you're guaranteed to find a group of people who will become your raving fans and customers, as long as you educate, entertain and provide solutions to their problems.
2. Marketing On YouTube Will Help You Get Found On Google
Due to Google Universal Search, videos, images, news, books and local searches are blended together in Google's search results, so as to provide the most useful information for people searching.
You might have noticed that videos are appearing more often in Google's search results. This shows that Google considers video to be as important as text-only pages.
You can take advantage of this by writing high-quality articles on your site and creating complementary videos in YouTube. Doing this will build backlinks to your site, meaning you get found on Google more often by people searching.
By utilising YouTube as part of your marketing strategy for your business, you're also increasing the authority of your website. The more authoritative your website is in Google's eyes, the higher all your pages will rank in the search results.
Fun fact: Over 60% of searchers click on the first 3 results on Google, and over 90% of all Google searchers click on the first 10 organic results.
4 Top Tips For Using YouTube To Increase The Authority of Your Website
1. Get other website owners to embed your videos on their websites
Every time someone embeds your video in their website, it counts as a vote in favour of your video. The more people who embed your video, the higher it will rank in the search results, as Google gives more authority to websites that have great content, which is updated regularly.
2. Associate your domain name with your YouTube channel Associating your website with your channel will tell YouTube that you are the official representation of your brand on YouTube. This results in more relevant video results pointing to your business when someone searches for your brand or terms relating to the services you offer.
3. Get your videos shared on social media platforms Social media metrics are a factor taken into consideration by Google when ranking pages. If you can create high-quality videos that entice others to share, you're signalling to Google that you are producing content that is valuable to your target audience.
4. Give your audience more options to consume Providing your audience with a variety of ways to consume information – including text, video illustrations and audio cues – will increase the overall engagement your videos receive, as you are catering to different learning styles.
* 65% of people are visual learners
* 30% of people are aural learners
* 5% of people are kinesthetic leaners
3. Your Content Never Dies
Using YouTube for business can help you to re-purpose content you've already created without the need to spend a lot of time or to invest in expensive equipment.
Re-purposing content you have already created is an effective form of content marketing, as you can reach an audience that will love that particular type of content. For example, this blog post, can easily be re-purposed into many formats including:
* Podcasts
* Infographics
* Video series
This approach enables you to create at least 4 pieces of content from just 1 idea, resulting in an engaged audience who can easily digest the information you provide for them.
4. Grow Your Audience Worldwide
This is one of the biggest benefits of using YouTube for business.
Consistently creating video content opens the door to new visitors who would never come across your business any other way. Through YouTube, you can reach a worldwide audience even if you only speak one language.
If you're a native English speaker, you're at an advantage, as it's difficult to capture the huge English-speaking markets (30% of all YouTube views) if you can't write or produce excellent content.
In addition to this, if you include closed-captions on your videos, you can also reach new audiences as you are catering to people with different needs.
Research now shows that videos with closed-captions receive 4% more views and subscribers than those without.
Fun Fact: 80% of people who prefer to watch video with closed-captions enabled don't have hearing impairments.
It's also crucial to include several call-to-actions inside your videos, with annotations that link to:
* Other videos
* Content on your website
* Email auto-responder series
* Products and services on offer
5. Build Your Email List in YouTube
Another benefit of using YouTube for business is the ability to build your email list as you continue to provide valuable, engaging content.
Use software that allows you to embed your sign-up form directly into YouTube videos. A video can be stopped temporarily for a viewer to enter their email address and subscribe to your list, before they continue.
Using this approach makes it easier than ever to build your email list, whilst providing engaging video content your audience will love.
6. Your Audience Will Promote You and Buy from You
Videos with a personal touch help to increase conversions. People buy from those they trust, and that trust is built by you relating to them on an emotional level.
Research now shows that, for professional services and general companies, if you are driving traffic to a landing page with a video of a person in the company speaking about the product or service, it can dramatically increase your list of leads and sales.
7. Target Your Audience with AdWords for Video
With Google AdWords for Video, you can get laser-focused access to your audience by advertising on videos your audience are more likely to watch and search for.
The biggest advantage of AdWords for Video is that you'll only pay for engaged views.
An engaged view occurs when a viewer watches your ad for at least 30 seconds. In other words, if your video ad is skipped, you won't pay anything. Take a look at how Rokenbok generated 50% of their customers from YouTube due to their video advertising campaign.
The biggest benefit of AdWords for Video is the potential to grow your audience through 'earned views'.
These views are free and are earned when someone who chooses to watch your video ad, then goes on to watch one or more videos on your YouTube channel within a 7-day period.
If someone watches 2-4 videos on your YouTube channel, they are far more likely to subscribe to your YouTube channel.
8. Make Money with AdSense for Video
Creating regular video content gives you the opportunity to earn some money directly from your videos, through Google's AdSense for Video programme.
* Over 1 million content creators from 30 countries around the globe are earning money simply through YouTube videos
* Thousands of channels are making six figures a year
You can use Google AdWords and AdSense for Video together to make some money back from your video campaigns too.
It works like this:
1) Viewer sees your video ad in another video and clicks on it.
2) You pay for that click as part of your campaign budget.
3) Viewer proceeds to watch your video, viewing the ads from other content creators that are enabled to display on your videos. (can be disabled)
4) Viewer clicks or watches those ads and you are paid 68% of the ad revenue.
This means that you can run AdWords campaigns for your videos, whilst making money by allowing others to advertise on your videos.
As you can see YouTube is a viable platform for growing your audience and business in a number of ways.
If you invest the required time to learn the main components of the platform, YouTube will show itself to be a worthwhile addition to grow If you wonder about the benefits of YouTube video marketing, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge should answer all questions. According to New York Daily News, over $100 million has been raised from more than 3 million people in the fight against Lou Gehrig's disease. Although the fundraising is certainly for a worthy cause, would it have been quite this successful without videos of everyone from mayors, former presidents and musicians to actors, athletes, models and even Kermit the Frog taking part?
A huge reason for the Challenge's overwhelming success is the unique ability of video to deliver sight, sound and emotion. We see children, ordinary people and the star-studded at their most basic levels, usually interacting one-on-one with their camera audience. The sincerity of their appeal, the daring of the challenge to the next person, and the look of true shock on most faces after being doused all pull us in and demand that we keep watching video after video of people dumping ice water on their heads.
After participating in the challenge, marketers need to dry themselves off and then ponder the lessons learned about the effectiveness of social video advertising. Wouldn't it be a tremendous marketing tool to harness the effectiveness of this campaign for your own clients?
Well, you can with Channel Factory. We are a YouTube data company that is completely focused on helping top brands and agencies get their videos watched, shared, and tracked across multiple devices on YouTube and native environments. We are so focused on YouTube because it works. Consider these Top 10 benefits of YouTube video marketing:
1. Incredible Reach: YouTube has the potential to reach the largest percentage of the population of any marketing medium. The latest YouTube statistics reveal that more than 1 billion unique users visit YouTube and over 6 billion hours of video are watched each month.
2. Search Engine Optimization: In 2012 Marketing Week reported that video results appeared in almost 70% of the top 100 search listings on Google. When consumers look for products and services, the most likely first stop is a search engine.
3. Share-ability: If viewers like what they see, the video shoots out across the video marketing universe in an instant, without the marketer investing another dollar to expand the video's reach exponentially. Consumers love sharing videos they think will educate, inform or entertain.
4. Affordability: Television advertising is cost-prohibitive to reach a significant percentage of the target audience, butYouTube video marketing is extremely cost-effective. When combined with Channel Factory's targeting tools, even companies with smaller budgets have the potential to surpass their marketing goals.
5. Product Support: Consumers want to know more about products and services they are considering purchasing. In 2012 Marketing Charts found that videos boost purchase confidence among viewers. More than 60% of consumers will spend at least two minutes viewing a video to obtain information for a planned purchase. At that time, about 66% of YouTube visitors responded that they had watched a product video within that social network. Channel Factory helps marketers boost that figure by targeting those prospects who are most likely to be interested in a specific video.
6. Obtain Feedback: Consumers are more likely to comment about online marketing messages than they are about traditional television advertisements. Marketers can garner useful knowledge by welcoming comments and engaging viewers in follow-up conversations.
7. Measurability: Old-time advertising standards only included estimated reach and frequency statistics, but it was never really possible to prove whether consumers were exposed to a specific message or whether they were totally engaged. Today's advanced analytics enable marketers to understand exactly who is watching their message and when. Channel Factory offers a data-driven strategy which provides the ultimate video marketing value and performance.
8. Durability: While most advertising campaigns have a limited shelf life, YouTube video marketing is eternal, with a video message ready to respond every time a new prospect begins a search.
9. Effectiveness: Consumers are motivated to buy after watching a video. In a ReelSEO study, 71% of the respondents confirmed that video converts better than other content.
10. Adds Personality: An online world can get impersonal pretty fast, but video gives marketers the opportunity to add some personality, humor, or testimonials, and put a "human face" on a corporation.
Learn More About the Power of YouTube Video Advertising Channel Factory offers the opportunity to build on the effectiveness of YouTube video ads with sophisticated abilities to target an audience and increase performance against KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). Especially since the introduction of YouTube's TrueView video ads, viewers have more choice and control over which ads they watch and when. The challenge is targeting prospects who would be most interested in watching specific pre-roll YouTube ads. Channel Marketing offers a series of services including contextual video targeting,
advanced analytics, and pre-campaign transparency to increase the performance of TrueView, click-through rates (CTR), completion rates, and earned media, or awareness which is garnered through promotional efforts other than advertising. At the heart of Channel Factory's social video marketing technology is our Curation and Targeting Tool, which allows complete placement transparency before any online advertising flight begins. Highly targeted and contextually relevant placements are identified based on our algorithm, and then matched to a client's video ad to maximize campaign performance and ROI. We also offer a free Social Engagement Tool, which enables clients to track the sharing and comment activity of a single or multiple YouTube videos across all major social media platforms.

Dandurand Joseph A.
Author Tags: Aboriginal Authors Poetry Theatre
Joseph Dandurand is a member of the Kwantlen First Nation for whom he has worked as Heritage/Lands officer for 20 years. He recounts his struggles to overcome physical, emotional and sexual abuse in his first book of poetry, I Want (Leaf Press 2015). Dandurand expresses his love of the land, his connections to his ancestors, his endurance and his deep desire to foster his children so they grow up without abuse. "I am here / this pen to paper / proves it yet again."
His second collection of poetry, Hear and Foretell (Bookland Press 2016), continues with his focus on urban Aboriginal life in Canada. In the poem, A Place Called Kwantlen, Dandurand writes: language is gone/land is gone/fish are gone/ empty abused mind/of mine/gone.
The same poem ends on a positive note: I have the dream of fish/and it is enough/to make me real/in this imaginary/place/called Kwantlen.
Asked why he writes, he has responded: "They say we are each born with a gift. Some take care of the fires, some are great cooks and fishermen. Others can carve wood. I truly believe that my ability to paint pictures with words is a gift. Even my Indian name X.alatsep means written down. This gift has both its wondrous side and also its tragic side.
"I write to release both demons and angels onto paper. Most times when I am writing I am filled with emotions and images that I have stored somewhere inside of me. This provokes memories and stories that I have carried all my life and when the moment comes and I cannot stand it anymore ...I write.
"Today I have no poems but I do have a new play in my head that is begging for release. But it is fishing time and also time to spend with my children. So the play sits somewhere inside of me and I will release it when I just cannot stop it from appearing onto paper.
"This is all good but most times for me it is both good and bad. I sometimes hate the fact that I can paint pictures on paper and tell of things that I both hate and love about myself. These cathartic episodes of creating take their toll on me. And after I am done I sit there quietly wondering what to do next so I get up and go and work on my fishing nets or I take my kids out somewhere or I light a smoke and cry a bit to myself. This passion of words inside of me is both a gift and a wondrous side equalled sometimes with the tragedy of who I was, am, and will become."
Having graduated in performing arts from Algonquin College, Dandurand studied theatre and direction at the University of Ottawa and has since produced plays at the Red Path Theater in Chicago, the Algonquin Theater in Connecticut, the Debajemejig Theater in Ontario and the Autry Theater in Los Angeles. Dandurand was Playwright-in-Residence for the Museum of Civilization in Hull in 1995, for Native Earth in Toronto in 1996, and for the National Arts Centre in Ottawa in 1998. His script, St. Mary's, was produced by CBC Radio in 1999. He published a play in 2004, Please Do Not Touch the Indians. These works have been followed by Th'owxiya: The Hungry Feast Dish (Playwrights Canada 2019 $17.95), a 50-minute play that teaches the Kwantlen First Nation lesson, When you take something from the earth you must always give something back. Th?owxiya in an old and powerful spirit that inhabits a feast dish of tempting, beautiful foods from around the world. Th?owxiya herself craves only the taste of children. When she catches a hungry mouse named Kw?atel stealing a piece of cheese from her dish, she threatens to devour Kw?atel?s whole family, unless she can bring Th?owxiya two child spirits. Ignorant but desperate, Kw?atel sets out on an epic journey to fulfill the spirit?s demands. With the help of a sqeweqs, two spa:th, and a sasq?ets, Kw?atel endeavours to find gifts that would appease Th?owxiya and save her family. The story emanates rrom the Kwantlen First Nation village of Squa?lets.
In 2019, Joseph Dandurand became Director of the Kwantlen Cultural Centre and Indigenous Storyteller in Residence at Vancouver Public Library.
SH:LAM (The Doctor),�and tells the story of a medicine man who has the ability to heal others, but is himself a heroin addict. ?This is the truth of what has happened to my people," he writes. "The Kwantlen people used to number in the thousands, but like all river tribes, eighty percent of our people were wiped out by smallpox and now there are only 200 of us. I believe the gift of words was given to me so I can retell our stories.?

Northern Brooklyn development calls for 1,000 apartments—and an East River swim
Ryan Deffenbaugh
James Corner Field Operations and Bjarke Ingels Group, courtesy of Two Trees Management
A developer has unveiled a vision that could bring 1,000 new apartments, a waterfront park and maybe even East River swimming to a 4-acre stretch of the Williamsburg waterfront.
Two Trees Management revealed its plans Thursday for the first time since purchasing the former Con Edison industrial site in North Brooklyn last year for $150 million. The announcement kicks off the public-review process for the firm's building plans, which include two apartment towers and a public park.
Under the site's master plan—designed by Bjarke Ingels Group and James Corner Field Operations—250 of the 1,000 apartments will be offered at below-market rents, meeting obligations of the city's inclusionary housing law. The development also would add a 47,000-square-foot YMCA, 30,000 square feet of retail space and 57,000 square feet of office space.
City seeks ideas for floating East River pool
Renderings of Manhattan's first public beach revealed
The focal point of Two Trees' public announcement was the redesigned public waterfront. The project would create 3 acres of park space along the East River, along with 3 acres of protected water access points. The effort is focused on improving the property's resiliency by absorbing rising water.
Renderings show a circular pier that connects to a park and beach space. The developers are promising a "first-of-its-kind protected public beach and in-water areas for New Yorkers to enjoy an array of aquatic activities." That could include kayaking, fishing and potentially swimming down the road.
"In the wake of [Superstorm] Sandy, this project will mitigate the potential impact from future storms while transforming New Yorkers' relationship with the water through wading, boating and other waterfront activities," said Jed Walentas, principal of Two Trees.
The East River isn't exactly a snorkeler's paradise. The city has discouraged wading into the waters for nearly a century so people avoid pollutants caused by consistent sewage overflows. A nonprofit group has floated the idea of launching a filtered swimming pool in the river for years. The plan gained momentum in the fall when the city released a request for proposals for just such a pool.
But the Two Trees team appears confident conditions will improve to the point that the new park will be the "first of many invitations for New Yorkers to dip their toes in the water," as described by architect Bjarke Ingels.

Rockman EXE Transmission OST Announced! ... Wait, What?
October 10, 2012 / Heat Man
We're getting soundtracks galore for Mega Man's 25th anniversary, so why not toss another into a mix? And while we're at it, how about make it an original soundtrack for a GameCube game released back in 2003? Yes, for whatever reason, Rockman EXE Transmission (Mega Man Network Transmission to us in the west) is getting its own soundtrack nine years after the fact.
Actually, the context might make this a little more understandable. The soundtrack (full name "Game Music Discovery Series: Rockman EXE Transmission Soundtrack") is being released by SuperSweep's own label. SuperSweep is the company Capcom contracted to compose the music for Transmission. The listing on SuperSweep's shop says that the album is the result of fans requesting an official soundtrack for a number of years. And heck, I won't lie, I really do love Transmission's soundtrack.
The 28 track album, containing the music by Shinji Hosoe, Ayako Saso and Kosuke Yasui, will release on November 2nd this year for ¥2,625 (roughly $33.50 US). As far as I can tell right now, SuperSweep's online store is the ONLY way to buy this soundtrack (which is seemingly being released with no connection to Capcom), so it may turn out to be a pretty rare item before long. Good luck to you music fans!

51 M.U. began their work on the 1st August 1940 under the command of Wg/Cdr Hesketh and the establishment was 5 Officers, 76 Airmen and 20 Civilians. They received aircraft from the manufacturers and checked them over carrying out any modifications needed before delivery to Squadrons. These delivery flights were carried out by A.T.A. pilots many of whom were women. The first aircraft to arrive were Hurricanes, Ansons, and Oxfords followed in December by Beaufighters (See Links page), Bostons and Wellingtons. Their activities rapidly expanded and the satellite airfields of Blidworth and Hoar Cross were brought into use.
From 1943 51 M.U. were dealing with Typhoons, B-17's, Liberators and Mosquitos, and towards the end of the war they were at their busiest receiving aircraft that had come to the end of their service for example 26 Whitleys which arrived at Hoar Cross in September 1944. The establishment had now risen to 21 Officers, 4 W.A.A.F Officers, 617 Airmen and 190 W.A.A.F.S and its stock of aircraft by July 1945 had risen to 780.
By 1947 they had broken up 900 Typhoons, 500 Liberators, and 150 Fortresses and the Unit then began to decline in size. From June 1948 until March 1950 Oxfords arrived for preparation before being sold to Air Forces in the Middle East, and after 2 years of aircraft storage Runway 04/22 became available for normal use. In 1951 Lincolns were being kept in storage for readiness in any emergency (Operation Firedog in Malaya) and by 1953 the remaining 160 personnel were solely occupied with this task.
51 M.U. handled most of the aircraft flown in World War 11, they were the only Unit who served for the whole life of RAF Lichfield until its closure on the 15th April 1958.


According to reports, director Teja has finalised a script on the Indo-Pak war of 1971 and zeroed in on Rana Daggubati as the lead.
Rana Daggubati and director Teja had teamed up for Nene Raju Nene Mantri in 2017 which went on to become one of the bigger hits of the year and was a comeback of sorts for Teja. A political drama, Nene Raju Nene Mantri also stared Kajal Aggarwal as the leading lady and Rana played the role of a fierce politician. And according to latest reports, Rana and Teja may team up for the second time. According to a report in DC, director Teja has finalised a script on the Indo-Pak war of 1971 and zeroed in on Rana Daggubati as the lead. "The success of Teja and Rana's last film together, Nene Raju Nene Mantri, has left audiences wanting more. The director wants to work with Rana once again as he is impressed by his dedication and style of working. Rana is also more than happy to reunite with him," the report quoted a source.
Rana Daggubati is currently shooting for another period film 1945 which will have the Baahubali actor playing an Indian army soldier of the Subhash Chandra Bose contingent. Besides 1945, Rana also has the bilingual film Haathi Mere Saathi which is said to be a tribute to the yesteryear film with the same title starring Rajesh Khanna.
Rana would also be making his debut in Malayalam with another period film which will have him portraying the king of Travancore. The shooting of the film too started recently and the perfectionist he is, Rana Daggubati wanted to visit the locations himself and get an understanding how things would progress for the film. Confirming this, writer of the film Robin Thirumala said, "As he would be playing Marthanda Varma, Rana wanted to visit these places to learn more about the character as well." Rest of the cast about the film will soon be revealed by the makers.


Have you noticed anything different about our homepage? You can now see GlobalGiving's brand new feature: Trending Projects!
Every night, GlobalGiving updates trending scores for all projects based on their donation activity on GlobalGiving over the last rolling week. Projects with a large relative increase in their donations compared to their activity over the seven previous days will have the highest trending scores.
Each project's trending score is calculated relative to its own recent donation activity alone. This means a project going from one donation to 10 is more likely to be a top trending project than one that increases from 100 donations to 110 donations, even though they had the same raw increase in donors. This ensures that all projects are on a level playing field when it comes to calculating whether or not they're trending. Scores are updated every night and will remain the same until they're updated the following day.
The projects with the top five trending scores will have a banner on their project pages, and the project with the topmost score will be shown on the homepage!
The idea is similar to Twitter's trending topics and is based on the idea that showing trends publicly can be a useful drive of charitable donations. Research has shown that people get excited to give when they see that others are also excited and already giving, so we hope this will be a great tool to use to mobilize your donors to help you get on the homepage as a trending project!
Right now, the only information available about trending projects is the banner itself. But, in the future, we will email you when your project is trending so you know when your project is on the homepage! We are also exploring ways to let you know when you are close to trending so that you'll be able to get your donors to help push you over the edge! As our tech team adds new updates to this, we will let you know! If you have feedback or comments about the feature or questions about how it works, please reach out! We are happy to help.

Xbox investing in 'name-brand franchises' as [email protected] facilitates indie development
Posted 9 years ago by Steven Hansen
Also, retail to dev kit conversion on hold and Titanfall's success
One of the neatest touted functionality with the Xbox One is the ability to turn retail consoles into development units, but it's still not something you can with the One now. In a GDC talk, Microsoft Game Studios corporate vice president Phil Spencer explained that the company still wants to do it, but with its indie outreach program [email protected], it's not top priority.
Thousands have apparently reached out to sign on with [email protected] "We want to make sure the people that are signed up are getting the most support from us," Spencer explained. "Seeing all the games in development and trying to give the teams feedback on the games as they come through," is the focus, while "further down the road" we'll see a shift towards working on discoverability and the dev kit retail conversion.
"What we're trying to do is facilitate the games coming to the platform as quickly as possible and right now there's been focus on the people that can build today."
On the topic of Microsoft control over marketplace things like pushing patches and store pricing Spencer explained, "You've got to look at two sides of this. One of the benefits of console gaming traditionally is when I turn on the box, it boots up and it plays. There's a certain stability to the OS in a console that we consider sacred." Which still feels gatekeepery, but it's better than the patch system of last generation that left broken games up longer.
Spencer also explained Microsoft is, "learning through [its] relationships with people who were having success already" — companies like Mojang (Minecraft) or Wargaming (World of Tanks) who are big enough prior to Xbox releases that they can influence things like allowed update cadence and generally teach Xbox some PC-like sensibilities.
"The fundamental concern [from companies like Mojang] is 'do you guys understand what it means to be a PC game developer?' Which I'll say as somebody who has been at Microsoft now for almost 26 years made me cringe because we're the Windows company, but I think it was still a reasonable question given where our focus has been.
"Then it was questions about update cycle, price point. Things that they wanted to see us do is marketing," which something like Minecraft really didn't have with its open and on-going word-of-mouth development.
Though Microsoft isn't going full Steam with the Xbox One when it comes to Early Access and paid alpha. At least not yet. Spencer talked about things like Kickstarter and paid alphas being a good, new way for developers to get money in while they're working on it rather than after, and how there is, "an area of evolution that us as platform holders will go through this generation of helping developers fund their games." Sony has started a bit of this with things like the Pub Fund, albeit for smaller-scale projects.
Spencer also noted that any Early Access-type system on Xbox would "need to be clear to the consumer" that it's unfinished content. "You wouldn't want to mislead somebody that this is something that's done," he explained, citing the established expectations of console gamers for the state of completion of games they buy on their platform.
By the same note, Xbox isn't looking to let go of the reins completely and embrace a mobile sort of market where developers can easily loose a flood of content, though Spencer praised the ecosystem's open-market capitalism, which was worth a laugh. Yay capitalism.
Big blockbuster games are still Microsoft's focus, though, after first party efforts to support smaller titles under the 360 regime. "Going forward, I think that will still happen," Spencer said, citing titles like Killer Instinct and Max: The Curse of Brotherhood. "But the need for us to portfolio fill in that space is gone…In managing the first-party portfolio we're definitely going to invest in large, name-brand franchises."
"When you unleash the tools with the ID program, the community's ability to outpace what we would ever do as a publisher in that smaller space is infinite."
It makes sense. "Tent poles" still sell consoles and get people playing. Titanfall's launch led to the biggest Xbox Live week on Xbox One since the console's launch. Meanwhile, systems like recommendations based off of friends' likes (and your own ratings) will help players discover the smaller stuff in the marketplace. You're, "not going to find Super Time Force the same way you find Titanfall," Spencer said.
Discoverability is a huge issue for smaller studios that will only get worse as the marketplace fills with more games and sports network apps. But that's not the only issue developers have been having early in the Xbox One's lifecycle. Spencer claims they're having "ongoing conversations" with indies regarding the launch-parity policy, which also troubles developers who can't afford to simultaneously work on releases for multiple platforms, but who want to get their games on every platform they can. "I want to make sure that the best games that come out have a place on our platform," Spencer said.

Amid Calls for Investigation, IRS Agents Said to Have Visited N.H. Liquor Stores

Agents from the Internal Revenue Service made unannounced visits to New Hampshire liquor stores last week, according to multiple sources. The action comes in the wake of allegations made by an elected official that the state-run stores aren't doing enough to stop potentially illegal all-cash transactions, exposing the state and liquor store employees to possible lawsuits and harm.
During their visits, IRS agents asked questions of store employees, as well as customers making large purchases, according to sources.
A spokesperson for the Boston field office of the IRS confirmed that agents were "conducting official business" on March 28th in New Hampshire, but wouldn't provide details on the nature of that work or confirm if it is related to recent concerns raised by Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky about all-cash bulk sales at state liquor outlets.
In February, Volinsky wrote a letter to Gov. Chris Sununu and state Attorney General Gordon MacDonald expressing concern that the New Hampshire Liquor Commission, a state agency that oversees 79 retail stores, has policies in place that "appear designed to avoid federal financial reporting requirements related to large cash transactions."
Acting on a tip from a store employee who has since been fired, Volinsky says he witnessed customers inside the Keene retail store divide a large transaction into multiple smaller transactions in order to keep the purchases under $10,000. IRS rules require most businesses to complete a form when customers make all-cash purchases in excess of $10,000. The policy is intended to combat money laundering activities. It is illegal to "structure" a transaction--by either splitting up a purchase or making multiple purchases at different stores--to avoid the $10,000 reporting threshold.
The state Liquor Commission denies that it is turning a blind eye to these transactions, and said that it is "committed to following state and federal laws and we have an 85-year track record of doing just that." A spokesperson for the Liquor Commission says the agency is unable to comment on last week's IRS activities.
Last Wednesday--the day IRS agents were on the ground--was the final day of a two-week promotional period during which customers who make large purchases are rewarded with gift cards, something Volinsky criticized in his letter as akin to providing "a state discount to customers who are illegally structuring the transactions."
Publicly available inventories during the two week period showed a spike in sales of certain spirits, including Hennessy cognac, the state's top selling brand in 2017 and an apparent favored drink of customers who make bulk purchases using cash. There have been several high profile arrests in nearby states in recent years involving people buying large quantities of Hennessy in New Hampshire, with the intent to resell that liquor elsewhere.
During the promotional period, an NHPR reporter observed within an hour of arriving at a retail liquor store a van with New York license plates back into a parking spot near the store's entrance. Approximately twenty minutes later, the driver and a second man exited the store pushing a cart stacked with boxes containing both Hennessy cognac and Johnny Walker scotch. When approached, the driver of the van declined to comment, but did say that "bootlegging" activities have been taking place in New Hampshire for decades, and were unlikely to stop despite recent scrutiny.
It remains unclear if the Liquor Commission is legally required to file IRS Form 8300. In 2012, the New Hampshire Attorney General's office informed a special committee set up by House Speaker Bill O'Brien that looked into the Commission that it believes it is doubtful that the Commission must comply with filing Form 8300. The Attorney General's written opinion detailing that decision is protected under attorney-client privilege.
A few years later, the AG's office again reviewed the Commission's policies in this area.
"We worked with the Commission in 2014-15 on their policies related to large cash transactions," Deputy Attorney General Ann Rice wrote in an email. She declined to explain what prompted the New Hampshire Department of Justice to engage in that specific policy review. She adds that Volinsky's "letter has raised concerns about how the policies are actually being implemented, which we will look into."
In his February letter, Volinsky requests that the Attorney General seek clarity on the issue from the IRS. For its part, the state Liquor Commission says its policies regarding large cash transactions have been reviewed on "numerous occasions" and have always been found legally sound.
According to records obtained by NHPR, the New Hampshire Liquor Commission has filed only a single Form 8300 with the IRS since the beginning of 2016. That form refers to a $28,000 cash purchase. However, the form doesn't contain the name of the purchaser, which is listed simply as "unknown." It isn't clear why the Commission would have voluntarily filed this form, given its position that it isn't required to do so.
The IRS's website states that there are sharp penalties for intentionally failing to file Form 8300 when required, including a $25,000 fine and up to five years in prison.

Hennessy Cognac, Liquor at Center of 'Bootlegging' Allegations, Was N.H.'s Top Seller Last Year
By Todd Bookman & Lauren Chooljian • Mar 14, 2018
It may not be every New Hampshire reveler's go-to drink order, but Hennessy cognac was the top selling spirit by volume at state-run liquor stores in 2017, accounting for nearly 5 percent of total sales that year.
Hennessy also happens to be the liquor at the center of bootlegging allegations made last month by Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky, who is calling for an investigation into how the New Hampshire Liquor Commission handles large all-cash sales made by out-of-state residents.

The New Hampshire Liquor Commission has fired a retail employee who it says violated policies by improperly completing a large all-cash sale at a state liquor store last month.
That transaction, involving $24,000 worth of Hennessy cognac, is at the heart of allegations being made Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky into wrongdoing by the Liquor Commission.

Police are investigating the shooting death of a Lancaster man late Sunday night, March 3, in what has become the county's third murder of 2013.
Kenneth Jeffery Blanding, 36, was pronounced dead shortly after 9 p.m. Outside a home in the 400 block of Miller Street, said Lancaster County Deputy Coroner Tony Broome late Monday afternoon.
Broome said Blanding's cause of death was a gunshot wound to the chest.

Hi! Sign in to let us know how Piezanos Pizza was?
by pizzapielover016 at Citysearch Oct 16 .
I tried this chain because I love pizza and am always looking to try new stores. Unfortunately, when you try new things sometimes it doesn't pay off, and this is one such example. The service was terrible, they took a while to even get to the counter to take my order, even though I was the first in line. Normally I wouldn't have a problem with this as it usually means that they are busy, but I saw plenty of people in the way back of the store just chatting and standing around. It appeared the poor pizzamaker, bless his heart, was the only one doing any real work. Finally, the pizzamaker asked someone (who I later found was the manager) to help me, but she was horribly, terribly rude. It was obvious to me that she was not interested in helping me.\n\nAnyways, I could let this stuff slide if their pizza was awesome, but sadly, it was just as disappointing. First off, it was pretty expensive. it's $14 for an extra large, plus an extra $2 for every extra topping you add. If you're wanting more than a few toppings, then it's gonna get expensive real quick. The toppings were mediocre at best, I has horrified to find that their ""sausage"" is the crumble stuff that we ate in school cafeteria pizzas. That stuff is great when you're 7, but I'm an adult who just spent $22 +tax on a pizza, I think I deserve real sausage, please. They also spread their pepperoni pretty thin. To top it all off, they gave me the wrong type of crust! I asked for thin and they gave me something that was defiantly not thin!\n\nOverall, it was not a very good experience, obviously. I normally never use these review things, as I like to spread word of mouth about when a place is good or bad, and if a place is bad I usually feel that it's not bad enough to spread around the internet and whatnot. Sadly, there is a first time for everything, and Piezano's is it. Avoid at all costs!
If you've been to or used Piezanos Pizza, leave a review.


The Trackerbird .NET SDK can be used with .NET Framework versions 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 including Client Profile editions.
Before you can use the Trackerbird Software Analytics service or integrate the Trackerbird SDK with your software, you must first register an account by visiting: http://register.trackerbird.com. Once you register a username and create a new product account for tracking your application, you can get your Product ID and callhome URL from the Developer Zone (within the login area). From here you can also download the latest version of the SDK.
When using the Trackerbird API, there are two main classes which you will have to integrate with. One is Trackerbird.Tracker.TBConfig which is a dynamic class used for holding the configuration elements used by the SDK. The other class is Trackerbird.Tracker.App which contains all the methods used for controlling and using all the features provided by Trackerbird. All the methods inside this class are declared static so creating an instance of the class is NOT required.
You do not need to worry if your application will run on x86 or x64 platforms. If you do not target any specific platform, you should include both x64 and x86 DLLs with your application, and the Trackerbird .NET DLL will import the correct one automatically. If, however, you choose to target a specific platform, you may include only the corresponding native DLL in order to make the installation size smaller.
Add a reference to TrackerBird.Tracker.dll in your project.
Add the directive using Trackerbird.Tracker to the source files where you will be calling the Trackebird SDK.
Call the static method :cs:func:`TBApp.Start`. You must call this method first, before making any other Trackerbird API calls. It is recommended that you place this call at the entry point of your application so the Trackerbird SDK knows exactly at what time your application runtime session was started. If using multi-session mode, you also need to call :cs:func:`TBApp.SessionStart` when a user session is started, and also provide a unique user session ID which you will then also use for closing the session or for Feature / Event Tracking.
Call :cs:func:`TBApp.Stop` in the closing event of your application so the Trackerbird SDK knows when your application runtime session has been closed. If using multi-session mode, when user sessions are closed, you should call :cs:func:`TBApp.SessionStop` and send the ID of the session that is being closed as a parameter.
All of the public methods inside the App class are static and can be called at any point in your application as long as the Trackerbird.Tracker library was initialized through :cs:func:`TBApp.Start`.
Before running your application, copy the DLL files Trackerbird.x64.dll and Trackerbird.x86.dll inside the BinDebug path (or BinRelease if you are compiling for release). These files are required by the Trackerbird SDK and must be included with your application. If you are building specifically for x64 or x86, you may then choose to include only the corresponding DLL file.
//Inform Trackerbird that the application has been started.
//Inform Trackerbird that this runtime session is closing down.

So, its been a little while since I've done a review with CSN Stores and I chose a mattress pad to review this time. It was quite the learning experience and I think it'll be very helpful for those of you looking for a similar thing between mattress pads and mattress toppers.
So, here's my story. I have a futon that I had bought from Target...mmhmm, I know, its not really the best place to buy furniture but it was decent looking at a decent price. It was meant to be a guest bed so I figured it couldn't be too bad...until my friends stayed the night and said it felt a little too lumpy bumpy and I think, well, if people my age can't handle it, what's going to happen when our family including elderly members come to visit. They'll definitely stay longer and then what would I do? So, I decided I needed something to go overtop. I had no clue what a mattress topper or mattress pad was. For all I knew, they were the same thing. But nope, they're not. Quick information that I found that really helped me with my decision on which to go with. Mattress toppers tend to be thicker and are usually foam pads that you set on top of your mattress. They're also more expensive being more comfortable and probably more ideal in my case since I was needed comfort and something to cover all the "lumpy bumpies" as my friends called it. However, its a little too expensive for me and well, for my purposes, it was just too inconvenient as I felt it may shift without a fitted sheet and it would also make it difficult when I moved. Mattress pads are generally thinner so they may not be as comfortable as mattress pads, but they're a lot more convenient as some come fitted and they're well, smaller, so easier to pack and they incur a little less damage on the wallet. So, in the end I chose a mattress pad.
The Beautyrest Classic 100% Cotton Mattress Pad is the mattress pad I chose this time due to the ratings and the affordability. I liked the idea that it could be machine washed and dried. It also had the expandable grip skirt that can expand up to 15" for thicker mattresses. It arrived within a week of my placing the order and that's something that I love CSN for, their speedy shipping times. The grip skirt was great, it kept the mattress pad steady and prevented it from shifting around.
What about comfort, you ask? Well, what better way to test it for comfort than to actually sleep on it. So, I spent the night on it and I slept fine, about the same as usual, I'd say. I still felt the lumps and bumps in certain parts of the futon but it did feel alright in terms of comfort. My SO, however, couldn't get comfortable and went back to our own bed less than an hour in. So, we sit at opposite ends of the spectrum on this one. He really doesn't think that the mattress pad helped any, if any at all. I figured it did help, maybe not 100% but it was enough so that I could fall asleep and stay asleep the whole night.
To be fair though, I believe it would've worked great on our normal bed since its got a nice smooth surface on top but on the futon where there were natural dips in the surface of the bed, this mattress pad just didn't make the cut for my SO. However, for the price ($24 + shipping), I think its a decent buy.
Beautyrest Classic 100% Cotton Mattress Pad: It does seem functional and was comfortable in my opinion and well, for the price, it would be alright. Would I recommend it to others? I would recommend it if you were using it on a regular bed because it would make your bed more comfortable, but definitely not on a futon that did not originally have a smooth surface.
