This week I finally started making another Shimmer quilt . This will be a perfect winter/spring project, and I'm going to take it slow(ish). I'm going to make 4 blocks a month, so by July I'll have 20 blocks for a throw size.
These blocks are really fun to make!
I put the Shimmer Pattern on sale (PDF here, Paper copy here), in case you want to sew along with me.
I'll be sharing my blocks in a post in the last week of each month. If you are on Instagram, you can add your blocks with the hashtag #shimmerquilt (there are some BEAUTIFUL quilts already there for inspiration!).
I cut all of my white/background fabrics at once so it's out of the way, and I'm going to choose different fabrics each month for my blocks. There is a diagram with each cutting size in the pattern so you can cut what you need for only one block.
You could make 1 block a week, or whip out 4 blocks in a sewing session…whatever works. Things are pretty low key over here!
Just think…by the time you have your blocks done it will be SUMMER again. Time flies by too fast!
If you want to join me, the Shimmer pattern can be found here on sale, get your background fabric all cut out and ready, and if you need fabric inspiration, visit here!
Would a fat quarter bundle and a few yards of background fabric make this? I'm trying to make things from my stash so basing my decision to participate in whether I already have some fabric.
Susan, I'm sure FQs would be great, because you're using such small pieces, in the block.
Assuming this is a 12″ block, the corner HSTs are probably 3.5″(plus seam allowance), and the center is 5″(plus s/a), and you'll be switching fabrics from block to block.
I, too, plan to work from stash.
Yay! Find any cute fabrics or large scraps and join me!
I have a half yard bundle, plus extra, of "hello Jane" that I have been saving!!
That will be super cute!
Love this pattern, especially with these pretty, bright colors. Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh, I'm definitely going to give it a try! I have a bunch of vintage fabrics and this will be perfect for them! I like and appreciate the "slow sew" timeline. Thank you!
This will be beautiful in vintage fabrics!!!
I'm going to do this for myself since most of the quilts I do are for others or for the nonprofit I belong to that makes and gives quilts away. I do not lack for fabric and may do it with all my hand-dyed fabrics or vintage since I have tons of that including bolts of vintage. Looking forward to doing this quilt.
That will be beautiful in Vintage fabrics Jolene! It looks good in really anything!
Count me in – already bought pattern – now going fabric shopping in my stash! Just what I need – a low-key QAL. Thank you Allison!
Low key is definitely the only way I will do a quilt a long! ;) Glad you are joining in!!
If there are a good mix of near solids in the bundle that I would say no, but I like to mix in a lot of near solids and blenders to mix up the busy prints and give the eye somewhere to rest. You could always add in some solids too that coordinate.
Allison, I just thought I purchased the pattern through PayPal but I didn't receive an email. In fact I may have done it twice but still no email. Let me know if you receive anything.
I'll look right now Cindy, but email me cluckclucksew@gmail.com if you don't get it or hear from me!
Excited for this quilt along! Just need to choose my fabrics … am going for the queen size so it's a good opportunity to sew from my stash.
Just ordered the pattern. Excited to see along.
I just bought the pattern from your site and I have started cutting my fabrics,all I need now is some inspiration to get started and I think you have just given it to me.
Yay I'm so glad you are sewing along with us!
I am definitely going to join. I have the pattern already!

Ready, set, sample! Like our new tees?
Last week, Vegan Cuts Founder Jill and I (Stephanie, your friendly Sales + Community Manager) embarked on an adventure of epic proportions. The Natural Products Expo West was an enormous showcase of thousands of products from food to bath & body to cosmetics to supplements to home goods. The Vegan Cuts team is on a never-ending search for the best new vegan products to pass on to our members, so it is part of our duty to go to shows like Expo West—but we also had a ton of fun!
Just as fast as "Tofurkey" became part of the American lexicon, veganism as a stand-alone business model has become an exciting venture bridging the divide between those seeking a greater health consciousness and impassioned environmental politics. From the evolving science on gluten allergies to the renewed interest in raw foods, combined with new opportunities of a "green marketplace," the concept of vegan business has moved from the outer fringe to a proper seat at the table.
There's an exciting, new event taking place in New York later this month and we want you to be there with us. On June 16-17, we'll be participating in The Seed: A Vegan Experience – Two Full Days of Vegan Immersion. What's it all about, you ask?
See.. Eat.. Hear.. FEEL VEGAN. Two days of vegan exploration await you. Nourish your taste buds on scrumptious plant-based food from New York's famed vegan restaurants – the best in the world! Get inspired by world-renowned speakers, champion athletes, and top chefs. Provoke new thoughts with award-winning films and their directors. Discover the vast market of cruelty-free products and services. And much more.
The Seed invites the vegan-curious, vegan-skeptical, and vegan choir to explore what veganism has to offer today. You'll gain understanding of the endless benefits of a compassionate, healthful, and earth-conscious existence of the vegan lifestyle.
The Natural Products Expo West extravaganza has come and gone. If you haven't been reading along, you're welcome to go back and read about day one and day two. Basically, I jammed an insane amount of eating, walking and talking into this past weekend. When I finally stopped and laid down on Sunday night, I slept for 13 hours. I think I'm still recovering, but finally finding time to reflect on the whole experience. One of my favorite things about ExpoWest was having the chance to meet up with a bunch of our past Vegan Cuts partners. It was such a pleasure to visit the folks from Sprout Skincare, Hail Merry, Kaia Foods, NewTree Chocolate….

Q: Count number of users per country - Problem with SQL Query I have two tables.

*

*One containing countries with an ID and the geometry

*The other containing customers with a name, geometry and a boolean value showing if they are active or not.

Countries
iD     name     geometry
1634   UK       xxx
2357   USA      xxx
3345   Mexico   xxx
4694   Italy    xxx

Customers
name         geometry    statusActive
Hernandez    xxx         TRUE
Taylor       xxx         FALSE
Monte        xxx         TRUE
Winter       xxx         TRUE
Best         xxx         TRUE
Twist        xxx         TRUE

I want to find out, how many active customers there are in each country.
Step 1 - Join data: I could join the two tables based on the geometry. With ST_Contains I can test, which of the customers is located in which country. This works out well. I get as result a table from Customers which has additionally the column of the country ID. In addition, only customers with an active status are returned.
This is my SQL statement:
SELECT customers.*, countries.id
FROM customers
JOIN countries ON ST_Contains(countries.geometry, customers.geometry)
WHERE customers.statusActive IS TRUE

This is the resulting table
Customers
name        geometry    statusActive    id
Hernandez   xxx         TRUE            1634
Monte       xxx         TRUE            4694
Winter      xxx         TRUE            2357
Best        xxx         TRUE            2357
Twist       xxx         TRUE            4694

Step 2- Sum up the customers in each country. I do not know how I can achieve this. I already tried to use GROUP BY based on the country ID, but the query is running forever.
This is my SQL statement:
SELECT covid.county.fips, Count (*) As Number
FROM covid.tweets_sub
JOIN covid.county on ST_Contains(covid.county.geom, covid.tweets_sub.geom)
WHERE covid.tweets_sub.corona_related is TRUE
GROUP BY covid.county.fips
ORDER BY covid.county.fips
LIMIT 100

What am I doing wrong?
This is how the desired result should look like:
NumberActiveUsers   ID
1                   1634
2                   2357
0                   3345
2                   4694

Q: Flutter can't seem to find a Json file from relative path I apologise in advance if this is a silly question, but I have created a file and stored it in my "assets" sub-directory, which is at the same level as my lib directory and my pubspec.yaml file. I've set the relative path to "assets/ExerData.json" in my code (see below).
When I run the code saved as a scratch.dart file as shown below, hitched up to a Galaxy Nexus API 29 emulator, it can only tell me "Can't find file!"
import 'dart:io';

import 'package:flutter/services.dart';

String filePath = "assets/ExerData.json";

void main() {
  performTasks();
}

void performTasks() {
  if (checkFileExists(filePath)) {
    readFile(filePath);
  } else {
    print("Can't find file");
  }
}

bool checkFileExists(path) {
  bool result = File(path).existsSync();
  print(result.toString());
  return result;
}

Future<String> readFile(path) async {
  return await rootBundle.loadString(filePath);
}

I populated my pubspec.yaml file with this entry:

assets:
  - assets/ExerData.json

I expected it to find my file, read it using rootbundle.loadstring(path), and print out the resulting string to the console.
As I say, all it did was print "Can't find file".
I'd very much appreciate you help on this one!
Thanks in advance!

A: The rootBundle contains the resources that were packaged with the app when it was built. All files specified under assets: in your pubspec are packaged with the app. You can check if file exists by wrapping rootBundle.loadString() inside try{} catch(){} block.
  Future<bool> fileExists(String path) async {
    try {
      await rootBundle.loadString(path);
    } catch (_) {
      return false;
    }
    return true;
  }

or
  Future<String?> loadFile(String path) async {
    try {
      return await rootBundle.loadString(path);
    } catch (_) {
      // File not found Exception
      return null;
    }
  }

File is a dart class. It needs absolute or relative path of the file being read.
You can use File with  path_provider to get the absolute path from the current File System.
For example on Android:
 Future<void> getPath() async {
    Directory appDocDir = await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory();
    String appDocPath = appDocDir.path;
    print('PATH IS : $appDocPath');
  }

prints

'/data/user/0/com.soliev.file_demo/app_flutter'

A: Use:
String data = await DefaultAssetBundle.of(context).loadString("assets/ExerData.json");
final jsonResult = jsonDecode(data);

Reference: How to load JSON assets into a Flutter App?

A: As it turns out, the program logic had not completed initializing the necessary binding.
I called the method WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized() in the first line of the main class and everything started working as I expected.
Thanks to everyone who looked at my question!
Here's a similar question involving binding with XML files:

You can see a couple of Apple tablet concepts we've you shown you previously, or simply check out the newcomer below, a design created by the folks of Fotoboer.nl. The device is as slim as ever, packing a 10 inch touchscreen display (probably), bundled with the classic iPod earphones and… the usual ports a tablet needs to get going.
The clean interface is something we're already accustomed to and it seems we're dealing with a thin device, that's also glossy and elegant.


Last week, Alex and his family flew up to visit with Erin, Claire, and family. The visit meant so much to our gals who were counting the days until the arrival of the Broughton Family from California. They spent a long weekend up at Schweitzer together. They rented a condo and enjoyed some time visiting. Alex and his wife, Narumi, took the kids skiing and had a blast. Three of Erin's aunts and one of her uncles were able to visit, too. Erin shared that it was super relaxing and very fun. They hung out, went out to dinner, played cribbage, and shared stories. From all accounts, Erin and Claire enjoyed some precious time with family and will be looking forward to the next get together.
This round of chemo has been kicking Erin's buns a little, but overall, she seems to be in good spirits and coping well. Please continue to keep both Erin and Claire in your thoughts and prayers as they continue to fight their battles with cancer. Thank goodness the blueness of January is departing in a few short hours. I know at my house, the excitement of the holidays has passed, the checking account is just barely in the black, homework for my little people is mounting quickly, work demands keep me hopping, and my inclination is to hibernate with a hot mug of tea and wait out these dark days. I'm hoping that as Erin and Claire's friends, we can tap into some of the enthusiasm we felt during the holidays and keep sharing our love and encouragement with these amazing women in whatever ways we can. Letters or cards of encouragement and support can be sent to 3118 W Grace, Spokane WA 99205. If you are inclined to make a meal for our friends, please visit their meal calendar. Thank you!


• Posting of survey deficiency reports (2567 forms), beginning for surveys conducted in calendar year 2011. Until CMS has access to Plans of Correction electronically, anticipated in 2014, this information will not be reflected on the website.
• Inclusion of ownership information.
• Reporting on physical therapist staffing levels.
Longer-term considerations for future enhancements currently in the early phases of exploration include reporting on special capabilities and services offered by facilities to better support consumer identification of facilities that can meet specialized needs and reporting of consumer satisfaction information. No information was provided as to the expected timeline for potential incorporation of these data.
The Five-Star Rating system will also be modified this summer to incorporate the new quality measures and adjust expected staffing calculations based on MDS 3.0 data. The approach to revising these measures and calculations has been designed to transition with minimal change to the overall distribution of ratings. CMS also reported that overall trends in Five-Star ratings since the debut of the system in 2008 have shown improvement, with an increasing proportion of facilities receiving 4- and 5-star ratings and fewer receiving 1-star ratings.
IHCA will continue to provide updates as CMS shares additional information and firms up their timeline for rolling out these changes. Provider preview reports are currently available via the CASPER system.

Q: Python mocking and patching https client for unit tests I am writing unit tests and I need to mock a library to test my database result, but I am not sure of what the mock syntax would be for my test. Sample pseudo code:
in utils.py
import hvac

def setup_client():
    client = hvac.Client(url="vault.internal", verify=False)
    # More customized client logic here
    return client

in my function code api.py:
from utils import setup_client

def send_and_save(data: str):
    client = setup_client()
    result = client.send("test_data")
    # Pseudo code to save to the database
    database.save(data)

I want to be able to write a test that tests that send_and_save method saved data into the database in api.py without needing to call setup_client() at all.
What I've attempted in test_api.py
@patch("utils.setup_client", autospec=True)
def test_data_processed():
    // Code to trigger send_and_save("test_data") here. Note that I cannot test
    // send_and_save("data")
    // by calling it directly since this is part of a legacy
    // integration test than a unit test just for send_and_save

    setup_client.return_value = None
    assert database.get("key") == "test_data"

I am still getting an error from python trying to setup the client as if it's running the real client. How do I setup mock and patch to bypass this?

A: Your patch should point to where the function is being called, not where the function exists.
patch decorator
@patch("api.setup_client", autospec=True)
def test_data_processed():
    mocked_client = MagicMock()
    mocked_client.send.return_value = 'Fake result'
    setup_client.return_value = mocked_client
    assert database.get("key") == "test_data"

Q: Does knowing Latin or other logical languages contribute to being a better programmer? I'm currently studying Latin at school, and what I've learned is that it's a very logical language. I feel this has contributed to my programming ability, as it makes it my code easier to understand.
Is there any relation between knowledge of a very logical language such as Latin and the comprehension of code?

A: Perhaps the most important language skills that you need for programming are the ability to be precise and the ability to express what you mean in the language that you are using.  (Not a direct answer, but maybe relevant.)

A: Latin is a more "regular" language than English, in the sense that the rules are much more strictly followed. Does that make it any more "logical" in the sense of mathematical or programming logic? Not sure.
But studying Latin definitely improved my understanding of English, my native language. And learning any other language inevitably improves your communication ability generally. I think that translates to writing computer programs as well.

A: If you start taking the linguistics side of computer programming too seriously you'll find yourself wanting to write a better language.
Which will require you to write a parser.
Which will then enable you to lay down language fundamentals.
Which enables you to write higher programming constructs.
Which will point out deficiencies in your language.
Which will lead to you re-writing your parser.
Which will eventually drive you insane in a quest to find a perfect expressive pattern to encapsulate an idea that would've just taken 15 min to write in VBA.
In other words, don't look that deeply into it.

A: If you want to take a class in high school to help with programming take Machine Shop or Automotive Tech ed. if you school offers it.  The methods of methodically taking something apart diagnosing along the way to figure out what the problem is or how it works will be far more useful as a practical programmer than anything else you could take (non math/programming related)

A: I do not know Latin but, rather, have been learning Turkish sporadically for the past 10 years. This is a very logical language that generally follows a simple set of rules consistently. I have been programming for almost 20+ years now.
Based upon my experience, learning a logical language does not make any difference to coding but having a logical, computing background makes it easier to learn a logical language (like Turkish).

A: I did study Latin at school, and I speak a few Latin-derived languages. I wouldn't say that Latin is "logical", not more than English. It is a natural (as opposed to constructed) language, and contains its irregularities and quirks as you would expect.
Having said that, linguistics is a fascinating subject with some connections to programming and software development. Formal grammars are connected to grammar in natural languages, and you will discover more and more links as you study.
If you are interested in "logical" human languages, have a look at "conlangs", or constructed languages. Some of them have been engineered to be "perfectly logical", so to speak. Look here.

A: I have learnt Latin for five years and I do not think it is more logical
than other natural languages. But this may help you to learn programming
because some programming languages (which I do not want to mention here
to avoid any kind of language war) are also somewhat illogical in their
design, syntax and semantics.
Seriously, I do not think learning Latin has helped me to be a better programmer.
Also, many teachers of Latin like to repeat that Latin is a particularly
logical language (it was said to me as well), but I think this is only
commonplace.

A: I'm currently studying Latin at school, and what I've learned is that it's a very logical language, unlike, e.g. English. To me, I think this has contributed to my programming ability—it makes it easier for me to understand my code.
Don't overthink things.
Have any of you studied Latin (or another very logical language), and if so, do you also feel it helped you as a programmer?
Studied? Yes.
Helped me in my programming issues? No, not at all.

A: At one time students who were interested in science or engineering were encouraged to take Latin as opposed to French or Spanish. I know personally I struggled with it. I can't deny that it help my vocabulary, but I can't see where it help me be a better programmer.

A: Maybe; I also had a similar thought that maybe knowing how to program helped me learn a second language.
This came about when I took a French class several years ago just before I went on my first trip to Paris. French certainly has its quirks, but programming is largely nouns and verbs just like language. I swear that when I deconstructed the lessons along programming lines, the language got to be much easier to learn. It's more than likely just conjecture on my part, and it could be my enthusiasm for the class and trip had as much to do with my picking it up so easily as anything.
Learning another language is a great mental exercise so keep at it, but as others have said, don't look too deep into this.

A: I studied it and I think it kind of might have slightly helped me.
My native language is Italian which, despite being a neo-latin language, has little to nothing to do with Latin when it comes to grammar and syntax.
Organizing your thought in a language so different, in which you can't just start a sentence and improvise but you need to create a mental scheme of the full sentence structure before beginning to construct it, and keep it in mind when you want to add subordinates, might be a good logic/memory exercise.
Might help with pointers.
EDIT: correct German requires more or less the same efforts, and it's alive.

A: I think learning languages where tiny details make a huge difference in the meaning of everything, such as Polish or Chinese, can make you better programmer. Logic is easy; adhering to peculiarities is not.

Newsmen hang up hats after long media careers
Gannett Co. announces the retirement of two executives at Indiana newspapers.
Mickey Johnson, executive editor and general manager of the Palladium-Item (Richmond), and Gary Suisman, publisher at the Journal & Courier (Lafayette) and member of the HSPA Foundation board of directors, both recently retired.
Both men said they plan to spend more time with family following their departures.
"I'm grateful for the nearly seven years I've spent at the Palladium-Item as executive editor and general manager," Johnson said. "I've worked with a tremendous group of people who are dedicated to their profession and their community. My retirement will do little to change that commitment."
Johnson, 60, concludes a long career with Gannett that included top editor positions in several communities, including Richmond, Gainesville, Ga., and Port Clinton and Fremont in Ohio.
The Marshall University graduate also served as managing editor and sports editor of his hometown newspaper, The Herald-Dispatch, in Huntington, W.Va.
"I've been fortunate to have done something I deeply care about for more than 31 years," he said. "Not many people can say that."
Johnson said he and his wife, Sheila Love Johnson, plan to spend more time with their twin sons, who live in Nevada.
"Thank you to Mickey for his dedication and over 30 years of service to Gannett," said Karen Crotchfelt, Gannett U.S. Community Publishing Division Interstate Regional president. "He has been a terrific editor and general manager and has always been committed to the community and his employees.
"His retirement does not at all change our commitment to Richmond. We are dedicated to providing local, unique and compelling news for Richmond and to helping businesses by providing great print and digital marketing solutions. We will continue to be a part of the fabric of this community."
Advertising Director Cathleen Cline will continue to oversee the P-I's advertising department.
Content Editor Brian Guth will be in charge of the news department.
Suisman stepped down from a 30-year career with Gannett that began in Ithaca, N.Y., where he directed circulation.
Since then he's been a publisher in Fort Collins, Colo., and then Lansing, Mich., before settling in Lafayette in 2000.
"We sincerely thank Gary for his more than 30 years of service and dedication," Crotchfelt said. "He has had a positive impact on the community and on many, many employees. We wish him the best."
Crotchfelt added that "we are committed to delivering great local, unique and compelling journalism, and providing great results for our clients across our entire portfolio of print and digital marketing solutions. At our core, we want to continue serving the greater good of this community."
Suisman said retirement will allow him the freedom to travel to Florida to aid his 89-year-old mother and 92-year-old father. However, West Lafayette will remain his home base.
His youngest daughter is in high school, and Suisman has taken a liking to the region.
Gannett will not hire a new publisher for the Journal & Courier. Some of Suisman's duties will be handled by Howard Witt, executive editor, and Jim Holm, advertising director.

The internet has become the place to buy all sorts of insurance over the past few years - but that's probably even more true in the case of travel insurance. The internet enables users to check out prices and cover before they buy without being restricted to any one provider.
This shift has meant that more and more tourists are not reliant on the travel agent or tour operator for travel insurance. Travel agents may still try to encourage holidaymakers into buying travel insurance from them as part of an inclusive deal. In most cases, you will be far better served buying elsewhere. Buying from Tour operators is often expensive as they make most profit these days selling extras on the holiday as the margins on flights and accommodation are extremely tight.
Buying online means you have access to many different providers for travel insurance. Important things to compare are the levels of cover and benefits, exclusions that apply, as well as the excesses.
Travel insurance providers offer a 'cooling off' period after the purchase which gives you time to assess whether the insurance really meets your needs.
Particularly important is the level of medical cover offered. For example, will it include repatriation back home in the event of emergency? You should also check whether cover can be offered for pre–existing medical conditions.
Make sure you also check the policy wording thoroughly. This should be available to you before you purchase the insurance. If you are unsure about anything, call or email them and wait for a response.
Finally, make sure you buy your travel insurance as soon as you have booked your holiday. This will cover you in case of any need for cancellation due to unforeseen circumstances.


A new UCSB study that analyzed U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Census of Agriculture data spanning two decades (1987-2007) shows that the statistical magnitude, existence, and direction of the relationship between landscape simplification — a term used for the conversion of natural habitat to cropland — and insecticide use varies enormously year to year.
While there was a positive relationship in 2007 — more simplified landscapes received more insecticides — it is absent or reversed in all previous years. The findings were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS).
The author, Ashley E. Larsen, a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Ecology, Evolution and Marine Biology, built on an earlier study published in PNAS by extending the temporal dimension of that analysis. That study found a strong positive relationship between landscape simplification and insecticide use when examining 2007 data for seven midwestern states. Larsen's results also showed 2007 was positive, with increased land area in cropland leading to increased cropland treated with insecticides. But in 2002 and 1997, there was no statistically significant relationship; 1992 was negative (increased cropland but decreased insecticides); and 1987 was generally negative, but sometimes null depending on the model specification used.
According to Larsen, the increase in agricultural production over the past four to five decades has corresponded to massive changes in land use often resulting in large scale monocultures separated by small fragments of natural land. Ecological theory suggests that these simplified landscapes should have more insect pest problems due to the lack of natural enemies and the increased size and connectivity of crop-food resources.
Larsen used USDA county-level data for 1987, 1992, 1997, 2002, and 2007 as well as from the National Agricultural Statistics Service Cropland Data Layer for 2007 for the same seven Midwestern states as the earlier PNAS analysis — covering more than 600 counties in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. She performed a single-year cross-sectional analysis for each year followed by a fixed effects analysis for all years together. She then compared fixed effects models with year, county, and year- and county-fixed effects. County-fixed effects control for unobserved effects, such as the soil quality unique to each county, and year effects control for year shocks, such as droughts shared by all counties in the study region.
With just county-fixed effects, the analysis showed a strong negative relationship between landscape simplification and insecticide use. When year-fixed effects were included, that relationship dropped to null. Including both year- and county-fixed effects, the relationship remained null and similar to the year-only model, indicating that year effects are very important.

Relief for Jaypee as RBI prunes list of firms whose loans need to be provisioned for
Banks were forced to make substantial provisions in the December quarter following the AQR. Due to this, a number of banks reported record losses.Sangita Mehta | ET Bureau | April 21, 2016, 18:12 IST
MUMBAI: RBI eased the pressure on banks by pruning the list of companies whose loans need to be provided for against the risk of default, said three people with knowledge of the matter.
The immediate outcome of the latest decision will be betterthan-anticipated results at banks in the quarter just ended, especially state-owned ones that have heavy exposure to highly indebted corporate houses.
In a late evening communication on Wednesday, RBI told banks individually that they don't have to provide in the March quarter for outstanding loans to 20 firms, including Jaiprakash Associates and Coastal Energen, out of the 150 it had listed in December. The decision was prompted partly by the steps taken by companies to cut debt.
"On Wednesday, RBI issued a letter," said a banker who did not want to be identified. "Some of the companies are removed from the list and no new names have been added as yet."
The latest order from RBI comprises two parts — loans to companies that can be again converted to standard accounts, and others that have to be provided for in the March quarter, said the people cited above.
An asset quality review (AQR) ordered by the central bank last year had caused considerable heartburn among banks as RBI declared that lenders have to set aside funds against loans given to the 150 companies, including Essar Group and Bhushan Steel. Now that the list has become a little shorter, banks that loaned money to companies that have escaped the net could improve their bottom line.
Banks were forced to make substantial provisions in the December quarter following the AQR. Due to this, a number of banks reported record losses — that of Bank of India was Rs 1,505 crore and IDBI Bank recorded Rs 2,183 crore. For Bank of Baroda, which cleaned up its books in one shot, the loss was Rs 3,342 crore and for Indian Overseas Bank, it was Rs 1,425 crore. Provisions are expected to weigh down January-March results as well, but maybe not by so much after the RBI note.
In a recent report, Kotak Institutional Equities warned that the banking industry as a whole might see its profits collapsing because of the need to set aside this amount of cash. It had predicted state-run banks' net profit to crash 87% and private lenders to post just a 5% increase in the March quarter.
RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan in December rattled investors and bankers by ordering banks to provide for some of the assets that the lenders were still treating as standard loans. The central bank felt that these accounts were propped up by banks and were against its guidelines on bad-loan recognition. Analysts estimated this exercise would cost banks more than Rs 70,000 crore.
"Our first focus was on assets that were very weak and needed to be classified as NPA (non-performing asset) under our rules," Rajan told reporters earlier this month. Companies such as Jaiprakash Associates have reduced debt through asset sales.
Some of the 150 companies were on the RBI list for technical reasons, such as the borrower not having pledged shares or the terms under which the loan was restructured not being fully compliant with rules.

Tampa, FL Real Estate is among the nation's most desirable, for many reasons: ideal climate, beach access, booming job market, vibrant arts and cultural venues. Whatever your ideal Tampa home – waterfront, historic bungalow, luxury high-rise, gated & groomed subdivision – there's sure to be a number of Tampa homes for sale that respond to your every wish. Neighborhoods run the gamut from upscale to energetic, and homebuyers can choose between homes for sale in prestigious, quiet Hyde Park and Davis Island locations, or lively downtown, along Tampa's beautiful Hillsborough River.
The Tampa Bay area boasts a vibrant economy – Tampa itself is among the country's most favorable locations for business start-ups, company headquarters relocation, and diverse employment opportunities. Several Fortune 1000 companies operate from a Tampa base, including Anheuser-Busch – even Internet phenomenon Wikipedia runs its busy servers out of Tampa. MacDill Air Force Base, another significant contributor to Tampa's economy, operates important US military commands and employs over 15,000 people.
Following the national trend towards urban residential revitalization, Tampa's downtown continually becomes more appealing to suburbanites by offering amenities unavailable in outlying areas. These include proximity to arts venues, negligible commute time to the office, and a fun and fast-paced environment. Once complete, the Riverwalk project will follow the Hillsborough River from Tampa Heights to the port & bay, linking all the intervening downtown areas with pedestrian avenues lined with shops, eateries, and parks. The culminating point is what's called the Channelside District, which houses a multi-screen theatre (with IMAX), day cruises, gaming, and many restaurants, bars, and shops.
People seeking to live in an area experiencing economic, cultural, and social growth should consider exploring Tampa Florida real estate. Besides the options for living downtown, in the heart of the city, one particular up-and-coming neighborhood in South Tampa appeals strongly to the young professional real estate shopper. Dozens of boutique shops and specialty restaurants line oak-shaded streets in the neighborhood surrounding Howard Avenue. Another famous Tampa area is Ybor City, once center of the Cuban, Spanish and Italian populations and a cigar empire, and now home to a busy nightlife and live music scene. The original Columbia Restaurant occupies an entire block in Ybor.
Tampa, FL real estate for sale includes the typical options – single-family residences, subdivisions, condominiums and town homes – so regardless of budget or family size, we can help you find the Tampa home that's the ideal fit. Tampa homes are priced lower than comparable homes in other metropolitan areas of Tampa's size and diversity. Drawn by the economic strength, pleasant climate, and relatively inexpensive cost of living, new homebuyers have made Tampa Florida's third-largest city, and growing. Those thinking of moving to Sarasota or Palm Beach for their similar year-round semitropical climate often reconsider when they discover that Tampa's basic expenses are much lower – allowing more income to be diverted into real estate and savings. Tampa's population of approximately 303,000 [as of 2000] has its greatest concentration in the 25 – 54 year-old age bracket, making the city much younger than many of Florida's other main cities – these often focus on retirement rather than business.
Tampa residents enjoy the convenience of one of the world's top airports, Tampa International Airport, which has consistently garnered praise from Conde Nast Traveler magazine and countless passengers. Tampa's highway system underwent a major renovation which included improvements at the I-275/ I-4 junction and the addition of a reversible-lane elevated highway to the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway. It's a quick and simple drive to any of the appealing towns surrounding Tampa real estate – the Gulf Beaches, downtown St. Petersburg, and many state parks such as Honeymoon Island. If you'd rather travel by sea, a trip to the Channelside district and Florida's largest deep-water port provides access to five major cruise lines, plus several local sightseeing and dinner cruise boats.

Caratteristiche tecniche
Abile tiratore di punizioni, cui conferiva curvature ardite e grande forza, superando a volte i 140 km/h, il 26 novembre 2006, in un incontro di Primeira Liga tra il Naval e lo Sporting Lisbona, ha segnato un gol su calcio di punizione grazie a un tiro che ha raggiunto i 221 km/h, stabilendo così il record per il tiro più potente di sempre. Sono stati nettamente battuti i record di David Hirst (che colpì una traversa a 193 km/h), Steven Reid e Arjen Robben (entrambi in gol a 189 km/h).

Spesso schierato come terzino sinistro era bravo a svolgere entrambe le fasi: sia difensiva sia offensiva, presentava un'ottima spinta e una buona tecnica individuale col passare degli anni è stato adattato anche come esterno sinistro in un centrocampo a 4.

This skilled care could only be provided in a nursing home in our community prior to 1985 and was not reimbursed by federal funds (Medicare). Since 1985, Tomah Memorial Hospital has been approved and licensed to provide this skilled care. Under the Swing Bed Program, Medicare agrees to reimburse Tomah Memorial Hospital for skilled care provided if your diagnosis and treatment plan meet Medicare's strict standards. Daily skilled nursing or rehabilitation services must be provided. Custodial care is not covered.
As a Swing Bed patient, you are expected to be gradually responsible for daily tasks such as hygiene, bathing, dressing and to actively participate in your rehabilitation through motivated performance of exercises and activities, which further your goals of returning home. If you are having difficulty in any aspect of these daily tasks, we will help you become more independent through strengthening exercises and adaptive equipment, if required.
When a patient's condition improves to the point where skilled care criteria is not met, the patient, together with our multidisciplinary staff will work toward a plan for continued care. This could include Home Health Care, Home Delivered Meals, Social Services, Personal Care Aide, Home Physical Therapy or Occupational Therapy, or placement in an Extended Care Facility and/or help from family.

Respite Care is designed to let you, the caregiver; take a short break from the continuous care of homebound individuals who require supervised nursing care. Our program allows you to take time off knowing your loved one is being cared for by our competent staff.
Respite Care provides a temporary living environment for individuals needing short term, supervised nursing care for one to seven days, depending on your particular circumstances. Respite Care is not designed to be a substitute for nursing home care.
To ensure its success, it is important that you have realistic expectations. Respite Care is not for everyone. Respite Care is not intended to be a substitute for long term nursing home care or long term home health care. For different reasons, our program may not prove suitable for your needs, and other care programs may be more appropriate.
If you believe you or someone you know could benefit from this program, please call our Discharge Planner any weekday morning at (608) 374-0215.

It is then that the three close friends become distant, seeking to prove who is most deserving of the role. Ultimately, they must choose between fulfilling their own dream—finally within reach—or keeping their treasured friendship alive.

Galp publishes profits of €840,000 per day
Portuguese fuel retailer Galp recorded profits of €306 million in 2010 according to its annual financial report.
At a time of economic crisis, its profits soared by 43% on 2009, representing €840,000 per day.
Galp President Ferreira de Oliveira said the group's profits had "nothing to do" with the fuel prices in Portugal and added that "without the fuel tax increases in Portugal, petrol would be cheaper in Portugal than in Spain".
"If fuel duties were lower, we'd have even more profits and the Portuguese would still enjoy cheaper fuel prices than in Spain where many Portuguese living close to the border now go to fill up," he said.
The National Association of Fuel Retailers (Associação Nacional dos Revendedores de Combustíveis, ANAREC) estimates that more than 250,000 motorists (including 6,000 lorry drivers) regularly head for Spain to fill up.
That means that Portuguese fuel retailers are losing an average of 1,250 tonnes of fuel business per day to their Spanish neighbours.
All told it also means that the Portuguese state is losing €780,000 a day in fuel receipts and many Portuguese petrol stations near the Spanish frontier have gone bankrupt through lost business.
On January 7, the basic price for Four Star ´95 was 62.5 cents in Portugal and in Spain it was 63.5 cents but taxes on Portuguese petrol stood at 86.1 cents while in Spain it stood at 63.5 cents.
Over the weekend, Repsol garages in Spain near the Portuguese border were selling a litre of diesel at €1.251 and ´95 petrol €1.280. Yet 500 metres away on the Portuguese side of the border diesel was selling at €1.374 per litre and petrol at €1.513 per litre.


The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) has responded to the parliamentary defeat of the Meaningful Vote on the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement and Political Declaration.
Dr Adam Marshall, director general of the BCC, said: "There are no more words to describe the frustration, impatience, and growing anger amongst business after two and a half years on a high-stakes political rollercoaster ride that shows no sign of stopping.
The priority for government and parliament must now be to avoid the clear danger that a "no deal" Brexit would pose to businesses and communities across Worcestershire, Herefordshire and the UK. No deal plans for some businesses are too little, too late and companies urgently need clarity and certainty – particularly on future relationships on trade.
We are already speaking to Members who are feeling the pressure of the ongoing turmoil, many of who are now activating contingency plans and halting investments as they anticipate a future that is no clearer now than it was at the time of the referendum result.
For companies immediately needing planning advice, there are limited places remaining on our Brexit Planning: Reviewing the Supply Chain Impact course on Friday, February 1, from 9.30am-4.30pm.
The time critical course helps businesses prepare for all possible scenarios and is delivered by Strong & Herd LLP. To find out more information and to book your place, please contact Emma Hopkins on EmmaH@hwchamber.co.uk.

Jonah Shacknai's Court Testimony
June 20, 2019 / nickvdl
← Dali Stilts
Rebecca Zahau Case File: Volume 1 [of 2], Section 29 [of 43] GLENDALE PD Incident Report [2005] →
One thought on "Jonah Shacknai's Court Testimony"
When listening to Jonah's testimony he is upset recounting Max's condition as anyone would be. He also seems upset when remembering being told Rebecca was dead. These are normal responses. His memories are accurate and how his emotional responses are to being asked to remember are appropriate. But I have other questions. He seems reluctant to have acknowledged Rebecca for giving Max CPR. With his medical background it may just be a difference in what he considers CPR and Rebecca simply giving Max a "few breaths." But it's rather cold to have not tried to absolve Rebecca of any guilt she would have been feeling. He has said he was in love with her and although Max at this point isn't going to make it, he's not taking care of someone he professed to love. Was she just an ornament to him?
Also the message he leaves her the night she was killed is strange. He says he was very upset and basically crying and "I told Rebecca what Dr. Peterson said and to call me." And that was, according to his conversation with Dr. Peterson, that Max may never walk or talk again. He says his message went to her voice mail. She did not answer. Yet, that message was deleted. Did the phone ring during her murder? But someone listened to the message and then deleted it. Who and why.
Last, Greer asks Jonah did she put other's needs before her own? Jonah pauses. And it's a significant pause. Then answers "often." Often is a qualifying word. It means frequently but not always. Why the hesitation about that question. Is he remembering her squabble with Gabby? If so, it's petty.
Jonah is very polished on the stand. There will never ever be any way to connect him to Rebecca's death/murder unless it's through True Crime Rocket Science. May be his only connection is that he has paid for Adam's legal defense, but often those in power can send unspoken messages to others and remain detached from the actual criminal activity for example using the power of office to silently do their bidding without there being a record of it that would tie anything to the one delivering the message.

When Susan Jacobs-Meadows, director of the Canine CellMates program, answered a phone call from a "client," she had an uneasy feeling. Her clients have spent time in the Fulton County Jail, and with Georgia's recidivism rate of 43 percent within a three-year period (as reported by the Pew Research Center in 2004), she wasn't wrong to be concerned. What she encountered instead was the voice of the other 57 percent.
"I just want to say thank you. Thank you for letting me be in your program … for everything I learned … for everything you've done for me since I got out … for helping me believe I could live a life that had better choices and that I deserved more than I was giving myself,"said Orenthal. He explained to Susan that a former friend had recently been arrested in a large-scale drug bust … and he recognized that he could have been there too, had it not been for Canine CellMates.
Susan started the program after learning about similar efforts in other parts of the country and, by 2013, had developed this partnership in conjuction with Fulton County's Sheriff's Department, Fulton County Jail and Fulton County Animal Services in hopes of creating a lasting positive change in the inmates as part of an effort to reduce recidivism. For eight intensive weeks, select inmates are given the chance to educate, train and care for shelter dogs. The ultimate end goal of the program for the dogs is to help them pass the American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen test and find a welcoming home.
The Canine CellMates program strives for a happy ending for both man and beast. Navigating the world as a convicted felon is no easy feat. Cellmates that display particular dedication to the program and achieve significant progress can, upon their release,"graduate" to an aftercare program by Canine CellMates, which assists them with housing, food and job placement through the support of caring volunteers.
Volunteers are crucial to the success of both inmate and aftercare portions of the Canine CellMates program. There are always opportunities to help with adoption coordination, dog fostering, dog transportation, community outreach, program coordinating, event planning and fundraising.


When you decide to move into your first apartment, you would have to make a lot of decision all by yourself. Most of the rentals in TX come with a lot of rent per month that requires the people with low or tight budget to chalk out their monthly finances wisely. The hunt of a new apartment itself requires you t pay a lot of money. If you have a job in which you need to stay in your office for long hours, you might not get enough time to go out and look for apartments yourself. This will require you to hire an agent as agents mostly have the best idea where the finest apartments are located. They help you in finding a new apartment in as less time as possible. However, you will need to a high amount of money to the agent as his fee. This is that expense that you have to pay while hunting the apartment. When you find the apartment of your dreams, you have to pay a lot more money apart from the per month rent.
Moving into new Texas Apartments means that you will have to pay many bills per month along with the rent. These bills involve the payment of the phone bills along with the charges for the internet used. You will also have to pay for the electricity as well as the gas bill. When you move into your first apartment, you must keep in mind that rent is not the only expenses that you will have to pay for. One thing that is good about the apartments is that you do not have to pay the maintenance charges as the management of the building you have your apartment in pays them. In addition, when the summer season gets to its peak, you will have to pay higher amount of electricity bills as you will surely use air conditioners.
Most of the apartments San Antonio have a limited amount of space where you can store all your stuff. They do not provide you enough space to store all your belongings. However, if you have chosen an apartment that provides you some extra storage space, you might have to pay some amount of charges for that. This amount will be different from the per month rent that you will pay to your property owner. This will not only enhance your expenses but will also require you to consider leaving the option in some critical times.
People who have a vehicle find it difficult to come up with the right kind of san antonio apartments for rent that will also provide them a parking lot. They mostly have to find those apartment complexes that provide the option of parking a car in the parking lot that is located within the premises of the community. However, it comes with a cost. You are supposed to pay some additional money to the management of the community and they provide you some space in the parking lot and make sure that your car remains safe and secured all the time.

Browse: Home / Hamlets / Sodus Center / The Runaway Bride of Sodus Center (1897)
The following story is from the Wayne County Gen Web site.
(originally in Dec 31th, 1897 Sodus Record)
SHE LOVED A STATION AGENT
Sensational Elopement of Sodus Center Couple.
Miss Peeler Was Engaged to an Episcopalian Rector.
Became Infatuated With the Village Telegraph Operator.
Minister Arrived in Full Dress — Prospective Bride Had Flown.
A Brilliant Society Event Spoiled by Girlish Affection.
(Special Dispatch to The Herald.)
Sodus, Dec. 30 – Miss Susie Peeler, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Peeler, of Sodus Center, whose marriage to Rev. George Gurnell, rector of the Church of Epiphany, Bellevue, Pa., had been announced to take place at St. Luke's Church next Sunday morning, eloped with H.O. Lyon, an extra station agent of the Northern Central Railway Co., Tuesday.
In this, Sodus society has another sensation, which is probably the most remarkable in its history. The fact that one of the society belles of the town had eloped just before she was about to be married has set society all agog, and nothing else can be heard but discussions concerning it. Nothing like it has ever occurred here before, and people with perplexed faces and bewildered looks congregate to hear the latest reports concerning the affair.
It seems that Miss Peeler dreaded the approaching marriage, it being more of a family arrangement than a love affair, which had been announced to take place Monday next. It was an open secret that while she was greatly admired the man to whom she was engaged to be married, that she did not possess the love for him that is generally expected to seal matrimony.
After her engagement had been announced to a few friends, she met H.O. Lyon, who was acting as an extra agent at the Wallington station. A strong friendship sprang up between them, which developed into pure, unadulterated love. Mr. Lyon became acquainted with the fact that she was engaged to Rev. Mr. Gurnell, but he continued to give his attention to Miss Peeler. They were seen at parties together, and friends of both saw that something stronger than friendship existed, although the young people laughed when the subject was mentioned.
Their intimacy continued after the public announcement of the approaching wedding had been made, much to the surprise of their friends. Miss Peeler's parents had great respect for Mr. Lyon and they made no objection to his frequent calls.
Nearly four weeks ago Lyon left his duties at Wallington and started for his home in Pennsylvania. Later he came ___ to accept a position with the Northern Central.
After his return to Elmira he made frequent visits to Sodus Center, and made arrangements to attend the party which was given at that village last Friday night. It seems that Miss Peeler wrote her fiance regarding the matter, and he informed her that he was willing to sanction her going with Mr. Lyon. It is thought that at that time the two young people talked over the approaching marriage and partially decided that it would be unwise for Miss Peeler to become the wife of the Episcopalian rector. There is every reason to believe that a friend was taken into confidence and that it was arranged to leave Sodus Center and friends behind.
In the meantime Rev. Mr. Gurnell had written from his Pennsylvania home that he would like to have his prospective bride meet him in Rochester Wednesday, where he would purchase a piano and ship the same to Bellevue. He had already furnished a very nice home, which they expected to occupy after the 10th day of February, when they would be at home to their friends.
Miss Peeler wrote him that she would meet him that day as requested and that she would leave Sodus Center the day before and remain with Newark friends over night there and take the morning train the next day for the Flower City.
When Tuesday came Miss Peeler went to Wallington and remained a few hours with a friend, informing her people before leaving that she would take the afternoon train for Newark and proceed for Rochester the next day.
The train from the south, due at Wallington at 11 o'clock a.m. brought Mr. Lyon from Elmira. He was met by Miss Peeler and her friend. The lovers held a consultation and it was evident that Miss Peeler began to regret the step she had taken, as she was seen shedding tears and was visibly affected. She was calmed by Mr. Lyon and when the train going south drew out of Wallington the lovers were aboard. They remained on the train until it reached Stanley. There tickets were bought for Rochester and they were married in that city. That night the telegraph wires announced the event to Wallington friends at the station, but they kept it still until yesterday when it became rumored that something of the kind had taken place. Nothing could be verified, though, until last night, and the particularsl did not reach the public until to-day.
Mr. and Mrs. Lyon left for Elmira. A message from that city stated that they had crossed the line into Pennsylvania, but no further trace of them can be found. Last night a letter was handed a mail clerk addressed to Mrs. Lyon at Elmira, so it is probable that they will return to that city soon.
On Wednesday the Rev. Mr. Gurnell reached Rochester, but was deeply disappointed when he did not find Miss Peeler waiting for him as she had agreed. He telegraphed the friends in Newark where she was to have remained over night. He was surprised when a message announced that she had not been there. Mr. Gurnell took the next train for Sodus Center, and there he found that his fiance had eloped with Lyon. He was greatly shocked and nearly crazed. When he became satisfied that his prospective bride had flown, he took the next R.W. & O. train for New York.
The parents are nearly wild with the outcome of the affair. Her marriage with the rector promised to be such a brilliant society event that their disappointment is keen. The wedding garments were completed some time ago and everything had been prepared for the future event. Wednesday night a party was arranged for Miss Peeler and Mr. Gurnell and another was scheduled for to-night. The parties concerned are highly respectable and have always been looked upon as being society leaders.
A clipping from another day, almost verbatim reportage, had the following heading:
ELOPED!
Miss Susie Peeler, Who Was to Have
Married Rev. George Gurnell Next
Monday, Deserts Her
The only difference is this final sentence:
It is said that Mr. Lyon has been once married and that he has a divorce, but no one seems able to show proof of the assertion.

Perfect for a housewarming gift, or a wedding present for those that are too hard to shop for!
At the beginning of 2013 I launched a new Celtic design for all of my products. Celtic designs are particularly complicated when designing with wood and negative space. Maintaining the illusion of the celtic knot makes changing the size of the design difficult, and I have a wide variety of sizes that I need, but I tried it anyway. With this Celtic design I wanted to create something that looked organic. For inspiration I turned to my local medieval-style historic home: Glencairn.
Glencairn was built in the 1920's and 30's by Raymond Pitcairn. He primarily designed the building to be a private home for himself, his wife Mildred Glenn Pitcairn, and their nine children, but he also wanted the building to showcase his extensive medieval art collection. Fourteen years after his death, and one year after Mrs. Pitcairn's death, their children decided to donate the building to the Academy of the New Church. The building was then transformed into a museum dedicated to the history of religion.
Glencairn Museum is now open to the public and available for tours Monday-Saturday (but call ahead because the tours can fill up!). The local high school and college, that together make up the Academy of the New Church, use the building extensively in their art and history courses. When I was a senior at Bryn Athyn College I began working at the museum as a tour guide, and as a host for the Coffee in the Castle Saturday program.
First floor elevator door at Glencairn Museum.
One of the neat things about working in a building like this is that no matter how many times I'm there, or how much time I spend looking at everything, there are always more details that I haven't noticed yet. The specific detail that inspired my Celtic design is actually a painting on the first floor door to the elevator.
In 2008 Glencairn Museum, the Bryn Athyn Cathedral and Cairnwood Estate were all put on the register of National Historic Landmarks. If you are ever in the Philadelphia area I highly recommend taking a tour of the Bryn Athyn Historic District. All three of the buildings are spectacular and unique. Why not make a day of it?
I love office supplies. I do. I love them. I can easily spend hours walking through Staples, and I do, on more of a regular basis than I'd like to admit. I also love things that are handmade, and hopefully that doesn't surprise you. Most wooden pens that I've ever seen have been in the $30-$60 range, and while they are often beautiful, they aren't really my style. So, naturally, I started working on my own version, that takes a very different approach.
The ink insert is the only component of my pen that I do not make. My pens come with a Fisher Space Pen insert installed. Space pens have pressurized ink that does not rely on gravity to function. That means that my pens can be used sideways, upside down, and in zero gravity, and still function nicely. Some people might be suspicious of anything that doesn't have a ballpoint, or gel, or some such nonsense, but I assure you, these pens are great.
Q: How long do the pens last?
A: It depends on how much you write with it, silly! They last a good long while. I have never had one run out. That doesn't mean they'll never run out, but they are like most pens.
Q: Can the ink be replaced if it runs out?
A: Yes...sort of. If you want to replace the ink yourself you'll need some pliers, the specific kind of insert that I use, and the willingness to end up covered in ink. If you don't want to run the risk, or put up with the hassle of finding the right insert, I can replace the ink for you. All you have to do for that deal is return the physical pen to me, and give me your mailing address. I'll send it back to you in tip top shape as soon as I can.


When I first thought of going for my CSP certification, I had absolutely no clue. I was facing some issue in filling the CSP application form. Thats when I got in touch with Saket who recommended me to Giri. Giri helped me in resolving the application issue. I went ahead and based on my understanding filled the SEUs and submitted the application. A few days later I got a mail from the SCRUM Alliance team that they cannot approve my application as they were not very much satisfied with the SEUs. I once again got in touch with Giri. He suggested me to go for their plan.
I did the same and started filling my application once again. Giri was of constant support to me replying to my emails/Whatsapp/Calls. Finally I manage to complete the application and re submitted the same.
To my joy, this time the application was accepted and I was asked to pay the fees which I did gladly.
I found the SEU material provide by Giri to be extremely good. The videos were excellent. Very very informative.
I found the whole team of Giri, Saket, Seema,....... very positive and helpful indeed. They are going out of their way to ensure our goals are achieved.
Thanks Atish and Ramesh for kind words.
Atish - For the benefit of everyone, would you also like to share, what kind of queries/comments you got from Scrum Alliance.
