Rebuilding Detroit: Urban Spelunkers step into Detroit's vibrant past

Pushing open a heavy side door, permanently propped open to allow easy access for intruders, urban explorer John gingerly stepped through tiny shards of glass that littered the now darkened hallways. The darkness, pierced with shafts of sunlight, broke through the gapping holes that once held windows. Bits of paper, wood splinters and broken lockers ripped from the walls completed the picture of what is now David Mackenzie High School.
John did not want to give his last name because this type or exploring, known as urban spelunking, is illegal and dangerous. But that does not stop John, a seasoned spelunker, and the many others who enjoy the thrill of stepping into the darkness and walking through Detroit's once vibrant past.
Abandon buildings are a ubiquitous force that affects nearly every neighborhood in Detroit. Mayor David Bing has pledged to knock down 10,000 structures in his first term in an effort to downsize the enormous city down to a more manageable size.
But not every Detroiter sees these buildings as blights to be demolished.
Dan Austin, 30, works as a copy editor at the Detroit Free Press. Austin first became interested in urban exploration, particularly urban decay, when he started noticing an abandoned hotel on his daily commute to work. He started asking around to find out what the building once was and was amazed to find that no one knew anything about this impressive structure.
"Detroit tends to run from its history," Austin said. "We seem to lack that historic pride that others have."
The elusive building turned out to be the Statler hotel which Austin later discovered was the city's first modern hotel. It was the first hotel in Detroit to have a bathroom in each bedroom and actual cold water that traveled through its pipes. The Statler was demolished in 2005 just in time for the Super Bowl XL, and 30 years after it had been abandoned.
"Blame it on the car culture," Austin said. "Detroit has always been obsessed with the what's shiny and new. But the whole does not improve unless you're adding to it, not just reshuffling its parts."
Austin's book, "Lost Detroit," published in 2010, chronicles the history of 12 of the city's most historic buildings, showing in graphic detail the beauty that once was and the wasteland that now is.
"People like to categorize my work as ruin pornography, as capitalizing on what should be a source of embarrassment for our city, but I don't see it that way," Austin said. "Yes, we take photos of dilapidated buildings, but we also put the buildings in context giving people a history of what Detroit used to be. If there is a comparison to be made, I'd like to think that we are the Playboy of ruin porn, with the good articles, and not Hustler," Austin said as he tried not to smile.
While the history may be important to some, for others it's preserving the memory of what the buildings have become that some find most important.
John is a professional photographer but has taken to giving tours of these skeletal infrastructures. Mackenzie, once a school that housed 2,000 students, closed in 2007 with fewer than 1,100 students. Mackenzie High is just one of the many high schools that faced what has been called the worst enrollment crisis in the nation. The Detroit Free Press reported in 2010 that Detroit had lost more than 100,000 students since 1999.
Sy Ginsberg a Mackenzie graduate of 1962, remembered the once grand auditorium.
"Some of these new high schools have more all-purpose multi-functioning auditoriums, but we had a great theater with stadium seating and a stage. It was really quite nice. They don't make those anymore."
For now the school auditorium of 2011 remains intact, except for some minor water damage that has collected by the stage. Still, John fears destruction in the not too distant future.

"Scrappers will come and smash these seats to remove the copper finish around the edges," John said. "You can tell how long a building has been vacant for by the amount of valuable equipment that remains."
Scrappers are yet another group that sees opportunity amongst the ruins. John describes three tiers of scrappers that exist within the scrapping system. The first tier is usually made up of professionally licensed workers such as plumbers or carpenters.
"These scrappers come in first to get the good stuff," John said, "usually stainless steel kitchen equipment, radiators, copper plumbing, anything with high street value."
These scrappers often operate from 9 to 5 and work only with reputable scrap yards that insist on licensed workers. The second and third tier scrappers come in later peeling, pulling, and dragging anything they can get their hands on.
Despite his formidable size and massive beard, which John insisted protects him from scrappers and pretty girls, John prefers to avoid confrontation with police and scrappers alike.
As he crossed into what was once a science lab, now devoid of any actual equipment, John heard a noise outside and paused, mid-step to determine the origin of the sound. Three young girls with bright colored backpacks ran across the schoolyard, caught in the middle of a game of tag. John stayed quiet so as not to alarm the children.
"For them, [these buildings] just become part of their landscape," John said.
In the past year alone 173 schools have closed, putting close to 40,000 children back into the school system, without a school.
"People think it's easier to get rid of these buildings, some of which have been vacant for many years. People don't see the potential here, all they see is blight," John said. "They see an impossible task."

The future of sports: A 360 tour of how Adidas uses technology to stay ahead
A 360-degree view inside Adidas's Future Lab.
By Cale Guthrie Weissman 1 minute Read
Athletes around the world turn to Adidas for world-class products. Whether it's for shoes, pants, or anything else, the German-based company agonizes over how to make everything look, feel, and perform the best.
To stay ahead of the curve, Adidas built its own innovation lab, which it named Future Lab. There, the company simulates all aspects of athleticism–be it a runner running or a soccer player kicking a ball. The company analyzes both how athletes perform, as well as how the items themselves hold up. This helps Adidas perfect the products it makes, as well as come up with new ideas for the future.
We recently traveled to Germany to see the Adidas Future Lab in action. The company showed off the ways it tests both athletes and products, as well as the next-generation technology it turns to to maintain its competitive edge. A mechanical foot kicked a soccer ball with what seemed like the force of Lionel Messi. A runner ran around the lab while a tracking pad was able to record her motions and force. Adidas performs precisely those kinds of simulations everyday in the innovation space.
Put together, we get a glimpse of how technology informs Adidas's brand and product strategy. Watch our inside look into Future Lab, and get an idea for how the 69-year-old company prepares for the next generation of athletes.

PARADISE VALLEY, Ariz. -- An Arizona teacher is firing back at Gov. Doug Ducey for his claims about educators' pay. CBS affiliate KTVK reports Elisabeth Milich posted a photo of her pay stub on Facebook to show that teachers make significantly less than he claimed.
During an interview with KTAR Radio, Ducey said, "Our teacher pay last year went up 4.4 percent to an average pay of $48,000." He added, "Now, that's not enough and I want to see it rise from there." He also said 80 percent of new spending in the state budget is going to K-12 education.
"I've debated about posting this but in the end want to show what a teaching salary really looks like in Az.," she wrote.
"If you are a single person trying to make it on what we make, you couldn't do it," Milich told KTVK.
In fact, some teachers have been forced to take on multiple jobs in order to pay their bills, she said.

This is so good! You've really been on a roll lately!
Thanks Lum, this was a old drawing that I was finally able to finish.
Sometime I start drawing something then I put it in a folder and forget about it (or I am busy drawing other things).
Partly, I drawn everything on paper, but I do a lot of retouching on the computer.
She's fantastic. I'm so tempted to write a blog entry about her. She could be a kind of elvish high-up in Pamaltela (where elves live in marshes), or a witch in Eastern Europe (where there used to be a lot of marshes before they were drained).

UK-Mexico Climate Partnership
The UK and Mexico are committed partners in tackling climate change to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement and encourage inclusive economic growth. Our shared ambition is reflected in the UK-Mexico Partnership for Sustainable and Inclusive Growth. Under the Partnership, which was signed in 2019, both countries agreed to increase political collaboration and investment to tackle climate change and reduce poverty.
In March 2020, the UK and Mexico agreed the Cancun to Glasgow Declaration, reinforcing these commitments.
The UK government is using its International Climate Finance (ICF) and wider programmes to support action in line with Partnership's objectives, with a focus on 5 key areas:
building sustainable cities and encouraging sustainable mobility
increasing capacity in green finance
supporting clean energy and energy efficiency
supporting climate policy
supporting sustainable forests and land use
Since 2010, over £230 million of UK International Climate Finance has been allocated to Mexico. Through bilateral and multilateral programmes, ICF responds to Mexico's priorities, helping leaders to advance ambitious climate action and supporting emissions reductions across key sectors prioritised in Mexico's Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement. UK programmes also build and strengthen capacities at local and federal levels, to support key institutions to develop the strategies and policy frameworks required for enhanced climate ambition.
The UK's climate programmes under the Partnership also align with international ambitions for COP26 and are helping achieve action in COP26 priority areas such as Clean Road Transport, Green Finance, Nature, Adaptation and Resilience. Beyond COP26, through our continued Partnership, we want the dialogue between Mexico and the UK to deepen further on climate, and to work together to jointly identify how and where we can collaborate to achieve our shared aims and bring about a sustainable and inclusive future.
What has the Partnership helped to achieve?
Recent examples of programmes that have supported our shared climate action goals.
UK Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions (UK PACT) programme
The UK Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions (UK PACT) programme is supporting Mexican efforts to adopt more ambitious climate change mitigation targets and legislation. A project delivered by a local NGO, Polea, helped to enable Mexico City's Congress to approve a new Climate Change Law in May 2021, which includes a 2050 net-zero target. The law will also strengthen Mexico City's adaptation and resilience commitments, consistent with Paris Agreement targets. Polea are now implementing a second phase of this project, working with 5 other states to help them strengthen their climate legislation, raising ambition in line with the Race to Zero campaign.
New housing NAMA
Through the multi-donor NAMA Facility, UK ICF supported the implementation of Mexico's New Housing NAMA Plan (National Appropriate Mitigating Action), including the EcoCasa project, which amongst other technical assistance developed a building standard for lower-carbon housing. The project has benefited over 75,000 families and reduced emissions by more than 1.9 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent since 2013. More recently, under UK PACT, the Climate Bonds Initiative supported green bond certification for the EcoCasa standard. This resulted in a $24.5 million green bond issue in 2020, which is financing the initiative's further rollout.
Sustainable Cooling Innovation Fund
In Mexico, demand for cooling is expected to increase 5- or 6-fold in the next 30 years. UK ICF's Clean Energy Innovation Facility (CEIF) has partnered with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) to establish and fund the Sustainable Cooling Innovation Fund, delivered through the TechEmerge programme. UK funding is supporting the piloting of innovative sustainable cooling technologies. From Mexico, 2 innovators and 9 companies have recently been selected for support, and will work with other innovators and companies from across Latin America.
Forests 2020 programme
Led by Ecometrica, the Forests 2020 programme brought together leading experts in the UK and Mexico to deliver accurate, up-to-date deforestation data to governments, communities, agribusinesses and traders. Through UK PACT, the UK will continue to work together with the Mexican government at federal and state level to use advanced earth observation to monitor and safeguard sustainable land-use practices.

A Google Assisted Future
by Sam Finston | published Nov. 10th, 2016
Illustration by Monica Nguyen-Vo
Google recently unveiled to the world a new line of products under the moniker "Made by Google." The tech giant formally introduced Google Home, a device suspiciously reminiscent of Amazon's Echo; Allo, a messaging app; Daydream, a virtual reality headset; and the company's new Pixel Phone.
To many, this might just seem like the internet giant trying to jump into every possible tech market that's popular today, but there is a common thread linking many of these products. The Pixel, Google Home and Allo all make use of the company's new very literally named digital assistant, Google Assistant.
Like Apple's Siri, Microsoft's Cortana and Amazon's Alexa, Google Assistant uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help its users do just about anything they want in response to simple commands. To help its users best, Assistant tries to get to know its users. Within Allo, the "smart messaging app," Assistant not only provides fun stickers to spice up your texts, but it also becomes another member of the conversation.
As you use the app to message your friends, Allo might notice you mention dinner and then recommend some nearby restaurants within the conversation. Even when it isn't actively sending messages of its own, the app is reading your texts in order to know your style of texting better. Its "Smart Reply" system suggests your replies to other texts based specifically on how it thinks that you personally might reply, using data from your previous conversations.
If all this sounds a bit too creepy, Google does offer an "incognito" mode much like that of its popular internet browser, Google Chrome. All messages sent while incognito will not be saved by Google Assistant. For those willing to fully embrace the app's AI, you can have a text conversation with Assistant itself and let it get to know you better.
While this sort of technology isn't necessarily brand new, it is much more impressive than ever before. The future predicted by countless science fiction stories with that ever-present robot voice responding to our every word no longer can be considered fiction. One might expect that with a company as huge and widespread as Google putting their effort into such technologies, that it could play a larger role within our lives sometime soon.
Behind the Tech
Dr. Ray Ptucha, an assistant professor of computer engineering here at RIT, spoke about the technological systems and processes behind such products. Ptucha was part of an Imagine RIT exhibit last May called "Taking AI Further: Deep Learning," which focused on the same tech used by digital assistants like Google's.
"Let's just say it's a neural network on steroids," Ptucha said. "A neural network with many, many layers."
Ptucha explained that digital assistants work using a process called Deep Learning.
"Let's just say it's a neural network on steroids," he said. "A neural network with many, many layers. The network is constructed in a hierarchal fashion such that as we go from one layer to the next, it's a more general abstract of the layer beneath. When we reach the final layer, we will ultimately have a better understanding of what's happening." In other words, the AI takes in input like speech or an image and interprets it over and over again. Each time around it notes more specific details and puts together new puzzle pieces that eventually create an understanding of what the original input actually represents, in a process inspired by that of the human brain.
Ptucha pointed out how these neural networks are nowhere close to copying the complexity of the human brain. That said, they do learn; Ptucha explained that, to teach an AI the basics that it needs to interact with users as advertised, that the AI is subject to something called a supervised learning system.
Texts from millions of users, when put into the system, would form a "ground truth" for the AI to know. The data then uses a probability-based technique to see what the average person in the Unites States might say in any given scenario and provide the user suggestions accordingly.
This is just how an assistive AI starts out. Once it gets to work on your phone, it adds your own data into the equation through a process called "Transfer Learning." Such personal data is weighted more heavily than that of the original millions of samples.
"Think of that like learning aggressively when it's on your phone," says Ptucha. "We have to initialize it; we transfer that baseline model over from the average user to your phone before it can start working." A "recurrent neural network" then uses your history and the last word you typed to guess what you might type next.
Ptucha can envision a future where there will be a computer with everyone wherever they go, a computer that listens, understands and is equipped with intelligent digital assistants akin to Google's. "Not only can I ask it simple things, but I can start asking it some very specific information. Eventually it'll get to the point where this thing is so good I'll start confiding in it," he said. He even sees people becoming friendly with their assistants. .
According to Ptucha, the next place such tech might see implementation is in the form of implants or something wearable like 2013's Google Glass. Whatever form it might take, the end goal is the same: "augmenting the human to make their lives richer and fuller."
Obstacles to Overcome
"[We] have to come up with clever systems where humans interact with computers in simple and intuitive interfaces," said Ptucha.
A big concern that naturally comes from the concept of always-listening machines is that of privacy. While Google does promise options like the aforementioned incognito mode, some may still be skeptical to trust the company.
"Whenever you use an incognito mode, you can be pretty sure that none of that is saved," Ptucha said. "It's such a violation of privacy that Google doesn't even want to attempt to be accused of saving any of that information. They have so many ways of getting non-incognito data, that why would [they] take the chance of doing something like that?"
For Ptucha, the potential positives far outweigh concerns about privacy. He noted, for example, how just about everyone has a relative still struggling to figure out smartphones and the internet, and that they perhaps could benefit from assistive AI.
"[We] have to come up with clever systems where humans interact with computers in simple and intuitive interfaces. Otherwise it's going to make our lives more stressful, not more enjoyable," he said. Google's Assistant could help by responding easily to simple, spoken commands and interpreting what functionality is best suited for the needs of those less adept with technology, without expecting them to know all the terminology.
This is possible because voice recognition has reached amazing heights in recent years. Ptucha cited a study conducted by Stanford University in August of 2016 that showed smartphone speech recognition to be as much as three times faster than texting the same words in English. Not only is it getting faster, but it's also getting better at understanding words that aren't spoken very clearly and concisely. As a result, you can talk in a natural way — the way you talk to people — and still be understood by the technology.
"This is the kind of interface that humans will warmly open their arms to," said Ptucha. Google's new products could be one of the first steps in the direction of a future where such technology has greatly proliferated.

The spire, when complete, will be about 280 ft.—at present it reaches to 102 ft. It stands upon sixteen octagon columns, each 3 ft. in diameter. The shafts are of Scotch freestone, with Corinthian capitals. The pillars are 14 ft. apart. The entablature of the edifice is supported by a number of figures in granite projecting from architraves. The nave is 160 ft. in length and 35 in breadth.
The seats, numbering sixty-eight, are arranged at both sides, and are of stained pine. The passage in centre of nave is tiled with common brick tiles of two colours; the floor under the seats is boarded. It is stated the nave would accommodate from 1,200 to 1,500 persons. The aisles are 15ft. wide by 160 ft. in length; they are lighted by ten windows. The chancel is richly ornamented, and is separated from other parts of the church by a railing of Caen stone 3 ft. in height. The railing is carved and supported by groups of marble pillars, and ornamented branches of iron are introduced between, forming a series of arches. The chancel floor is of Portland stone; the floor of the side chapels is decorated with mosaic tiling of small design. The high altar, which is the principal attraction, is composed of Caen stone, Irish red and green, and Sicilian marbles. We have not space to go into details respecting the designs and workmanship of the high altar, tabernacle and throne, reredos, or the altars of the Blessed Virgin and Blessed Sacrament, and the several figures. These last two altars are composed of Caen stone, Irish and Sicilian marbles. The communion rails are also composed of the same materials.

Remembrance Poppy: A Memorial Day Craft
Echo/ DIY Crafts+ Holidays+ Homeschoolin'
Have your kids create a giant red poppy out of tissue paper in remembrance of the brave soldiers who served, especially those who went into battle and died serving the country. The red poppy was first used by Great Britain to commemorate fallen soldiers. In the poem "In Flanders Fields" the soldiers that have passed on describe the poppies that bloomed across battlefields after World War I. The poppies were bright red, and reminiscent of spilled blood. This literary craft project is a great opportunity to get your children to reflect on the tragic loss of so many heroic soldiers in the various wars fought throughout history.
Copy or access to the poem: "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae
Tissue paper (red)
Construction paper (black)
Cup (for tracing)
Discuss the symbolism behind the red poppy with your kids. Have them read the poem "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae, aloud.
Ask them what they think about the poem and how the poem makes them feel.
Place the paper plate on a table in front of your kids. Ask them to cut out large petals from the red tissue paper and assemble them on the plate to create a red poppy flower.
Let them glue the petals in place.
Have them trace the cup on the black construction paper and cut out the circle to glue on the center of the flower.
Encourage them to hang their red remembrance poppy on a wall, or door in observance of both Veterans Day or Memorial Day (or Remembrance Day!) and all of people who have served, or were tragically killed during battle.
How will you remember on Memorial Day?

That is so cute and SO important. Our servicemen and women have given so much so we could be save and free.
Bill Sweeney says
This is an excellent craft to do with the kids. It's easy to do, and it's a great conversation starter for them.
Poppies are such a great symbol of bravery and freedom. What an awesome craft for Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, or anytime.
Joely Smith says
What a lovely craft to honor those who have fallen. I have learned so much about poppies here. I always thought they were just a beautiful flower. Thank you for the dedication and wonderful craft that has meaning behind it.
Kelly Hutchinson says
I just love this! I think we let holidays like Memorial Day pass by without remembering the real reason for the day.
I learned about the symbolism behind the poppy last Veteran's day. I had no idea of its meaning until last year.
What a wonderful way to show respect and shed light on such a memorable time in history. Poppies are so beautiful!
What a awesome idea for remembering Veterans for this upcoming Memorial Day weekend. Definitely going to give this one a try with my girls now. Thanks Echo!! 🙂
This is a great project to do with the kids. I will have to get the supplies I need to do this with my Son.
Jennifer pilgrim says
I love the poem that it talks about reading aloud to your kids while they are creating this. It is so important to make sure our kids know the importance of this day.
Ada says
This is such a cute craft. It's very neccessary though.
Dogvills says
What a fun project to do with the little ones. Remebering all the heroes who have given so much on Memorial day is important.
Zwitsal says
This is a great way to spend time with the kids! We don't spend memorial day here in our country, but maybe we can make our own version! 🙂
Rebecca Swenor says
We had learned from my grandfather who fought in WW ll about the meaning of the poppy flower and memorial day. This literary craft project is indeed a great way to teach the children about the meaning behind the poppy during memorial day. Thanks for sharing the information.
Rabia @ The Liebers says
This is such an easy thing to do , but really educational as well. Thanks for sharing!!
What a fun craft to do. I love that the poppy is such an important symbol. I usually get one this time of year too.
This is gorgeous. Scarlet always gets a poppy to wear before our Memorial Day parade starts here in town.
'You should come!
Dawn McAlexander says
That is a nice craft. I have some family members that fought in the armed forces that are no longer with us. I might visit their grave sites and place an American flag there. That is the traditional thing to do.
Melissa Dixon says
I love a fun craft. This one looks like a great one for the holiday weekend, I love it!
uprunforlife says
I love this idea. The military and their families sacrafice so much for our freedom. Been there done that and its a tough life.
Victoria Heckstall says
This is an awesome craft to celebrate memorial day. I love your idea, it's so much fun and interesting.
This is pretty cool. i like to do this with my kids and nephew. This is such an easy thing to do..
Chrishelle Ebner says
What a great way to teach kids there is more to Memorial Day than the unofficial start of summer. I think I need to do this with my grandson.
The Cubicle Chick says
This is a great craft for Memorial Day for the kids. I love the red color too. – yolonda


March is Nutrition Month! The goal of Dietitians of Canada's national campaign is to encourage Canadians to get back to their kitchens and get cooking! To support and promote this year's theme we're posting one tip everyday for the month of March.
These tips are too good to delete after we post them so we are re-posting them on our blog to be archived. They are grouped by categories to make it easier to find what you are looking for. We hope these tips continue to inspire everyone to get cooking!
16. Your kitchen doubles as a classroom that equips kids with life skills galore.
Cooking with kids is a great way to teach important life skills. Learning to cook now prepares them to cook for them selves when they grow up. It's also a fun hands-on activity that teaches literacy, science and math. It doesn't have to be complicated -- start simply and build skills. Younger kids can help measure ingredients and stir. Older kids can help peel and chop vegetables. Once they're confident, they can help bake, broil or sauté. It might be messy. That's okay! Your kids can also help clean up.
17. Find weekdays too hectic to cook with kids? KISS: Keep it simple, sweetie!
Cooking with kids can take a little more time, but it's worth it! Learning how to cook helps kids develop healthy eating habits, increases self-confidence and teaches life skills. Here are a few tips to keep cooking with kids relaxed.
18. Got teens? Try "create-it-yourself" meals so they can experiment in the kitchen.
Teens who eat meals with their families and help out in th kitchen are more likely to make better food choices. They're also more likely to connect better socially, and they're less likely to have eating disorders. Create-it-yourself meals are ideal for teens; they make cooking more fun and less of a chore. Try family taco, fajita or pizza nights. Everyone can help prepare the ingredients and toppings and then customize their own meals. You're all eating together, and everyone's enjoying their meals the way they like them.
19. Bring a little fun to your kitchen with a family cooking challenge.
Choose a cookbook, food magazine or website. Each family member pick one recipe to try.
Each person makes his or her recipe for the family. Depending on skill level, kids might need a little help.
When all dishes have been tasted, rate the recipes. You might discover a new family favourite!
20. Parents frosty about kids cooking? Smoothies are a super way to introduce kids to the kitchen.
Making smoothies takes little skill, so it's a great first step in the kitchen. The only tool you really need is a blender, You don't even need to follow a recipe. Just blend together a mixture of frozen fruit, bananas, yogurt and milk. Kids can experiment with favourite frozen fruits to create frosty combinations. Be adventurous! Try adding a handful of spinach or finely shredded carrots for a veggies boost. Smoothies are a tasty way to enjoy milk, fruit and maybe even veggies -- all foods that kids don't get enough of.

Shri Amarnath Ji is by far the many dham that is awesome. The Guardian regarding the absolute, Lord shiva is enshrined in form of an ice Lingam in Shri Amarnath ji Holy cave which is formed naturally of an ice Stalagmite, it is believed to wane and wax with all the moon. By the relative side are fascinating two more lingams: Maa Parvati and Ganesha. Reference of the Lingam is found in the Purana, there is belief that is popular Shri Amarnath ji Holy cave ended up being rediscovered by one shepherd Baba Malik. The shrine is managed by Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB) which was constituted by an act of J and K state legislature in year 2000 with His Excellency the Governor of J and K as its Ex-Officio Chairman, and a IAS that is senior officer the Chief Executive Officer. The board is in charge of smooth and trouble pilgrimage that is free the Holy Shrine..
Note: Since, Yatra by people older than 75 years and children below 13 years of age has been prohibited by Shri Amarnath Ji Shrine Board, hence NO BOOKING shall be accepted for this age group.
Yatris who wish to avail Helicopter Service to Panjtarni for their pilgrimage to Shri Amarnathji Cave Shrine are not required to seek Advance Registration through the designated Bank branches as their Helicopter Tickets is treated as Yatra permits for undertaking the Yatra (pilgrimage).
But Yatris that is such will needed to produce Compulsory Health Certificate (CHC) for each passenger (Yatri), duly issued by Authorised Doctors/ Institutes as per instructions laid down by Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB). Also remember that the prescribed CHC should have been released on or after a date that is specific by SASB by the Authorized Doctor/ Medical Institution. Record of these Authorized Doctor/ Medical Institution is made available onliner well over time prior to the commencement of this Online Helicopter Booking for Shri Amarnath Yatra.
At the most five passengers could possibly be booked final year with one Credit/ Debit Card. The Credit/ that is exact same Debit could maybe not be utilized for booking of seats for next three months. The Credit / Debit Card utilized for booking is needed to be reproduced at the right time of the issuance of the Boarding Pass.
Children below 13 year in age, elderly persons above the age of 75 years and Ladies who are far more than 6 week pregnant aren't be permitted to attempt the pilgrimage.
Obese Passenger – a check on passenger weight is safety requirement, under rule smaller the aircraft more painful and sensitive the balance and weight become. For light-weight helicopters, such as ours used on Amarnath sector, dedication of centre of gravity becomes issue that is extremely sensitive with heavy fat passengers whom tend to disturb the CG balance which is a serious safety hazard, therefore in the interest of the safety of this passengers and helicopter we can't accept passengers over 110kgs.
Compulsory Health Certificate (CHC), to be released by anyone from the directory of the continuing state/ UT wise authorized doctors / Medical Institutions, is mandatory for every Panjtarni bound passenger. The solution could be invalid additionally the boarding would be rejected without the certification. This rule is applicable to both advance and scheduling that is current alike.
No Yatris is going to be allowed to undertake Shri Amarnathji Yatra minus the Compulsory Health Certificate.
Yatra by individual older than 75 years and children below 13 years old has been prohibited by Shri Amarnath Ji Shrine Board, hence NO SCHEDULING shall be accepted for this age group.
Reporting time is not become confused with boarding time, Boarding will simply take place up to 2 hours after the reporting time.
People may carry only one piece of luggage weighing no more than 5 kilograms, any piece that is additional of can not be carried.
The liability of the company for damage sustained in case of death or wounding of a passenger or virtually any bodily injury suffered by passenger will be governed by the provisions of sections 4,5,6 and the rules contained in the second routine of carriage by Air Act 1972 with certain exceptions, adaptations, changes, etc. as notified within the Govt. of India, Ministry of Civil Aviation Notification and also as amended from time to time throughout the course of carriage by atmosphere.
No accommodations or dishes are wanted to passengers of a flight that is cancelled. Shri Amarnathji Yatra takes place during monsoon season, whether conditions play a role that is very important flight operation there also can be a technical snag because of which flight may well not run. If flight is terminated refund that is full of ticket would be offered. No accommodation ,meals or cost of area transportation would be paid neither any price that is such be reimbursed or compensated.
Passengers of flight departing from Neelgrath (Baltal) after 10 am have little opportunity to return to Neelgrath (Baltal) on the day that is same flight.
Taking into consideration the distance and nature of the TREK since it takes 4 hrs trek to the cave that is holy trek back to panjtarni and another hour for Darshan and normally flights stop after 4 pm.
Passengers reporting to panjtarni after 3 pm have actually little opportunity to get the flight to Neelgrath (Baltal). Such passengers are encouraged to get hold of Panjtarni Helipad and get their tickets revalidated for following day before 3 pm on the date that is current such passengers will have to set up with inconvenience of a night at Panjtarni at your very own expense. Because of the factors as above we sell limited two way tickets, as such passengers time that is reporting panjtarni to Neelgrath (Baltal) sector is NOT allocated instead flights are offered on first come first provide subject to access.
Neelgrath (Baltal) To Panchtarni – Passengers would be carried on the foundation of following order of priority: In each of the order that is following citizens (below 75 years old) and women will get concern over other passengers within the specific order, so to say only after having carried the last male people from order-1 will the senior citizen and women from order -2 shall be offered a seat.
Whereas effort will likely be built to accommodate passengers in their group that is very own but is NOT always possible as we need certainly to make weight adjustment in preparing of passenger load or accommodate priority seats.
Health -if at all you might be unable to return to Neelgrath (Baltal) for some reason you ought to never prepare to spend the at the Holy Cave instead spending a night at panchtarni is medically preferable because of its reduced altitude night.
Shri Amarnathji & Panchtarni can be found in thin air. The supply of air in environment at this altitude is lower than 40% of seas level as such there is need that is grave workout caution.
Pilgrims with pre existing medical condition/s are encouraged to look for opinion that is medical deciding to just take helicopter trip to Shri Amarnathji.
Almost all pilgrims waiting to return by helicopter present themselves to be in severe conditions that are medical. Kindly note them all, we therefore offer chair in the region of our normal priority that we cannot determine who is considered the most serious of.
Because of uncertainties of weather during monsoon in the Himalayan area and other odds like slippery track , Track congestion , once way track, long queue, your physical fitness degree and temporary stopping of Darshan etc. can simply take more than anticipated time , therefore you are encouraged to keep a travel plan that is flexible.
Mahaguna pass situated at the altitude of 14000 legs on our flight way to panjtarni has a cloud that is peculiar during monsoon time and flights are operated topic to clear weather, consequently chances of journey cancellation are common during monsoon, whereas reservations and advance booking are offered months in advance. An additional helicopter is pressed into service as such we've no extra ability to support passengers from cancelled flight on after times, in order to meet up the exigencies of such eventuality present scheduling seats are perhaps not opened and again subject to weather condition.
Operating out of a gorge that is narrow the farther end of Lidder valley, Shri Amarnathji Cave Shrine stands at 3,888 m and is 45 kilometer from Pahalgam and 141 km from Srinagar. The more common practice is to start the journey from Pahalgam, and protect the distance to Shri Amarnathji and back in four or five days though the original pilgrimage subscribes that the yatra be undertaken from Srinagar. Pahalgam is 96 kilometer from Srinagar. The Baltal route via Sonamarg has also become remarkably popular because of its brief distance track (although really steep) to the Holy Cave of Shri Amarnathji in recent times.
One associated with the Holy trinity, Lord Shiva is a living God. The many ancient and book that is sacred of, the 'Rig Veda' evokes his presence in its hymns. Vedic myths, ritual and even astronomy testify to his existence from the of the time dawn.
Lord Shiva is proven to have made their adobe in the Himalayas. He built no homely house nor shelter, perhaps not for himself or his consort, Goddess Parvati . He was an ascetic, and yet married; He could be both for "He is the God sporting in the forest or using his ease on a cloud.
The base points for the pilgrim's trek are picturesque Pahalgam and Sonamarg, a large township that is tented up to allow for the pilgrims at both these areas. The conduct of the yatra is a job that is gigantic which the Jammu & Kashmir State Government takes the assistance of the safety departments for providing safety and assisting to keep the path open. All halting that is intermediate have the same kind of facilities as are provided at Pahalgam and Baltal. These days Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB) conducts and coordinates all the pilgrimage associated tasks.
The Yatra is organised in the of Shravan and commences from Pahalgam & Baltal on specified dates thirty days.
The stalagmite is formed due to freezing of water drops that fall through the roof of the cave to the floor and grows up vertically from the cave floor.[4 within the 40 m (130 ft) high Amarnath cave] It is recognized as to be a Shiva Linga by Hindus. The Cave waxes during May to August, as snowfall melts in the Himalayas above the cave and the resultant water seeps into the stones that form the cave and slowly wanes thereafter. As per the religious philosophy, it's been advertised that the lingam grows and shrinks with the phases for the moon reaching its height during the summer festival, although there's absolutely no evidence that is systematic this belief.
According to a Hindu legend, here is the cave where Shiva explained the secret of life and eternity to his consort that is divine. Two other ice formations represent Parvati and Shiva's son, Ganesha.
The main reason for the pilgrimage that is annual the cave is worship associated with the ice stalagmite Lingam.
Devotees travel on foot, either from Srinagar or from Pahalgam. The journey that is second approximately 5 days.
The State Road Transport Corporation and transport that is personal provide the regular services from Jammu to Pahalgam and Baltal. Additionally privately hired taxis are available from Jammu & kashmir.
The shorter route that is north just about 16 kilometer long, but has a really high gradient and is very difficult to rise. It starts from Baltal and passes through Domial, Barari, and Sangam to achieve the cave. The route that is north across the Amarnath valley and all sorts of along the route one can see the river Amaravathy (it's more like a tributary of Chenab) which arises from Amarnath Glacier.
It is believed that Lord Shiva left Nandi, The Bull, at Pahalgam (Bail Gaon). At Chandanwari, the Moon had been released by him from their hair (Jataon). In the banks of Lake Sheshnag, he released their snakes. At Mahagunas Parvat (Mahaganesh Mountain), he left his son Lord Ganesha. At Panjtarni, Lord Shiva put aside the five elements – Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Sky. As a symbol of compromising the world that is earthly Lord Shiva performed the Tandava Dance. Then, finally, Lord Shiva joined the Holy Amarnath Cave along with Parvati.

If you don't listen to Hip-Hop you missed a masterpiece of an album, and you didn't recognize my theft.
That's the title of Kendrick Lamar's debut album: Overly Dedicated.
That's also what you need to be to be successful as a freelancer. Overly dedicated. You need to collect solutions like other people collect anecdotes, or stamps, or exes.
People think I'm arrogant. When people ask me what I do, I never know how to answer, so I just say "everything." Because I will. I'm a freelancer. I won't stop until I've solved your problem. Even after you've told me you don't need the solution anymore. I still have to find that solution. Wherever that solution is.
That's what a freelancer is supposed to do.
People close to me don't think I'm arrogant. I know because I've asked. Over and over. Over and over again. Maybe they don't tell me the truth because I have a temper. I dunno. But I'm gonna take them at their word. Because I don't want to be arrogant.
One of the things that people use as evidence in support during these mini-trials determining that I'm guilty of arrogance is the idea I have that everything has a solution.
They think that means that I think I know everything.
It's not arrogance that drives that certainty. It's paranoia.
I assume that everything has a solution because I am afraid everyone else knows the solution and I don't. And they don't want to share with me. So I work hard to make myself valuable to ensure that people will share their knowledge with me. If I'm a nobody, nobody will give me the time of day, and I'll have to work 10,000 hours to solve simple problems. I read Gladwell's book. I know how things work.
I don't have a lot of 10,000 hours.
There's only 647,000 hours in the average human life and in order to be healthy we should spend about 219,850 hours practicing for death—you know . . . sleeping. I spent a lot of my 647,000 hours learning. Learning is my favorite thing. Learning to write, learning immigration law, learning basic internet skills, learning entrepreneurship, learning freelancing. I am also apparently addicted to problem solving. It's at the point where I'm no longer happy unless there's some problem I can chew at until I get it solved. Luckily there's nooo shortage of problems. How can I get my ex to stop hating me without having to lie and say it was my fault, while not drawing attention to if it's not my fault who's fault was it? How can I be more successful, while wearing less clothes, and spend more time at the beach? How can I get the cable company tech to come when he says he's going to come?
I don't even have good communication skills because I spent so much time learning. Communication is next on my learning list. But I know people who are excellent at communication. I know people who are excellent at marketing. I know people who are excellent at fixing stuff.
I have a thing, I don't even know what it's called, beside my bathroom mirror where I guess I'm supposed to put my soap? I'm not sure. But there's four holes bored in it. I'm guessing so I can stand my toothbrushes. Well my toothbrush thing is floopy. It doesn't stand up so my toothbrushes will fall out if I put them in. I spent a lot of time being upset that I didn't know the solution to my floopy toothbrush thing.
I finally paid a guy and he came and looked at it and said: "Oh, epoxy will take care of that." And I swear to you the guy took a pin prick's worth of this epoxy, daubed it behind my toothbrush thing, and a problem I'd had for more than a year just went away. Just like that. He didn't even charge me. I had to force him to shut up and take my money.
What kinds of things have you learnt that you don't even have to think about? The sort of stuff that is automatic, that is axiomatic, that is self evident to you?
Well there's a whole bunch of people like me who have floopsy things that need fixing—who have no clue how to articulate the problem, much less find a solution. But we desperately want the solution. You market that, and we'll force you to take our money. Trust me.
I've learnt that every problem has a solution, even if I don't know what that solution is. What I do for my clients, is I find that solution, even when they don't know how to state the problem. After that it's usually better if they find a specialist to iterate and refine. But you can't skip steps. First the solution. I find that solution wherever that solution is. I'm overly dedicated. I'm a successful freelancer.

This Super Mario Maker level is the work of a monster
By Gabe Gurwin	 January 2, 2016
Super Mario Maker has seen an eclectic mix of user-created stages over the past several months, ranging from wall-jumping challenges to re-imaginings of Pokémon games, but there has been one type of level that, naturally has become especially famous: the level so hard that it will make you throw your GamePad across the room. Giant Bomb's Dan Ryckert has been specializing in these levels lately, and his "Armageddan" creation is the work of a true monster.
As of this writing, the Armaggeddan has 25 completions out of more than 34,000 attempts for a completion rate of .07%. The level was created with the goal of defeating Kotaku reporter Patrick Klepek, who had managed to complete Ryckert's first two creations, "The Ryckoning" and "The Klepocalypse." The final installment in the trilogy is as much of a psychological test as it is a Mario stage, forcing you to return to the same area several times, collect multiple "P" switches, and rescue a Yoshi from his spiky prison after collecting a helmet. The completed run shown above took eight minutes to complete, while the world record run was finished in just over five minutes. How anyone has the ability to not only beat this level, but do a speed run, is completely beyond my comprehension.
Super Mario Maker is separating the good from the evil. It shows humanity that there are demons walking among us, and the demons gladly reveal themselves, ready to destroy every ounce of hope we have left until the world is nothing more than 7 billion people in the fetal position. The levels I've made (and enjoyed) have been pretty easy, and I can only hope that the darkness never lays its hands on me.
And in case you're wondering, Klepek could not beat the Armageddan, and Dan Ryckert released a video to celebrate his victory.

Q: Android-json small issue I have a json array equivalent to
{
"genre":"2",
"imported_from":"1",
"release_year":"1999",
"import":"1",
"label":"1",
"artist":"Boards Of Canada ",
"album_title":"Music Has The Right To Children",
"formats":"1"

}
I am able to fetch the fields by
JSONObject jsonObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);

jsonObject.optString("genre");

But how can I access it by Index tried jsonObject.optInt(0); but does'nt work

A: you can only get the values by TAG_NAME only in Json Array because its a tag and that tag value its not a whole array of Json
{
"genre":"2",
"imported_from":"1",
"release_year":"1999",
"import":"1",
"label":"1",
"artist":"Boards Of Canada ",
"album_title":"Music Has The Right To Children",
"formats":"1"
}
{
"genre":"2",
"imported_from":"1",
"release_year":"1999",
"import":"1",
"label":"1",
"artist":"Boards Of Canada ",
"album_title":"Music Has The Right To Children",
"formats":"1"
}
{
"genre":"2",
"imported_from":"1",
"release_year":"1999",
"import":"1",
"label":"1",
"artist":"Boards Of Canada ",
"album_title":"Music Has The Right To Children",
"formats":"1"
}

if you are something like this then from  index you get first index which is only first array(between two { } all tag and value) you get.

A: Edit: The reason that Android does not provide an API where you can use indexes is because in the JSON specification there is no order between tags, meaning that the "genre" tag will not always be the first element (this actually depends on the JSON parser used), so the following is a bad idea:
It is not that efficient, but it works:
private int getInt(JSONObject jsonObject, int index) {
    int counter = 0;
    for(Iterator<String> i = jsonObject.keys(); i.hasNext(); ) {

        String item = i.next();

        if(counter == index){
            return jsonObject.optInt(item);
        }

        counter++;
    }

    return -1; //or default value/error
}

Q: Why is opacity not added to divs that are added? I am having that problem that opacity is not added to tfrhe selected divs.
Here do I have a fine working example what I am trying to do:
http://jsfiddle.net/PRZ5J/13/
Here have I added the code from the first example with some other Jquery:
http://jsfiddle.net/gDChA/74/
The problem is that the added input field and its divs does not have the same function and opacity as the first example.

A: You have to use the "live" function in jquery to ensure that newly created elements have any event listeners you set up.  In this case, instead of applying the .click listener to all the color squares, you would want to use a .live click event. e.g.
$('.blackDiv,.blueDiv,.redDiv').live("click", (clickopa));

and that will get you your event back.  I did a little tweaking of the function but this should work for you.
Demo


after that we will consider as well as several points. But often we have to learn about to recognize much better. It is nearby with the essential . If you intend to open up the picture gallery please click picture image below. You could also download for your photo collection.

Hey guys, this is for the men, do you have issues finding a nice looking and comfortable sneaker to wear? My husband does so he was never a big fan! Lugz was nice and sent him a pair of Changeover II Sneakers.
These Lugz Changeover II sneakers are a classic sneaker that provide a stylish athletic look that's perfect for everyday wear. Features a cushioned insole for added support and comfort. They have a jagger sole and durabrush upper. A TPR Outsole, Padded tongue and collar. Classic Lugz Hardware on Logo & Eyelets.
My husband has worn these several times. They fit great and my husband said they were really comfortable. They are very high quality and features a metallic inset "L" logo on side panel, and stylish shoe lace metal hardware. He really likes how stylish they are. My husband, who was never a big fan of tennis shoes is enjoying wearing these, even on a casual dress up occasion like a dance recital.
I highly recommend Lugz Sneakers! They feel great on your feet and look extremely nice. Most Lugz shoes are made to withstand the elements and keep your feet protected year round! There are many different styles of Lugz to meet your and your family's needs. Treat dad to a pair father's day! You can choose from White, Charcoal/Alloy and Olive/Bone colors.
