Double trouble for farmers
Failure to hike MSP for kharif crops irks drought-hit farmers
Faridabad, September 30
While the farmers are still reeling from the drought effect, the decision of the Union Government not to enhance the minimum support price (MSP) of kharif crops (paddy) has added insult to injury, feels the farming community in the district.
"Since the affected farmers in the region had been expecting compensation for the loss caused to their crops by low rainfall, the decision to retain the MSP of paddy and other crops has come as a double shock," said Bharat Lal Dagar, local BKU leader. He said that the delay in announcing the MSP of paddy and other coarse grains seemed to suggest that the Union and the state governments were interested in 'buying' paddy from the farmers on their terms only.
He said this was a matter of shame for the leaders of Haryana, who claim to champion the cause of farmers.
Mr Karan Singh of Kheri Kalan and Mr Jeet Singh Chandila of Badoli village, both farmers, said that the MSP decision was a bolt from the blue for the farmers, who were already at the receiving end.
They said: "While on the one hand, the government wants us to increase the production of crops, on the other, there is no guarantee that the grower would get a fair deal."
Another farmer, Mohan Singh of Jorkhera village, said that the farmers would have to come out on the roads to demand their due. First, they had to face the vagaries of nature and, now, the government was impervious to their sufferings. With the production cost going up every year, the farmer must get the appropriate price, so that he and his family could make both ends meet.
Narender of Mohna and Ganshyam of Bhopane villages in the district said that they felt cheated: one the one hand, they had been denied a just compensation for the damage caused by the drought and, on the other, the MSP had been retained.
The Janata Dal(U) president of Haryana Unit, Mr Ved Prakash Vidrohi, has also condemned the decision not to hike the MSP of major kharif crops.
He said that the Chautala Government in Haryana, which claims to be farmer-friendly, should immediately withdraw its support to the NDA government at the Centre.
He said that the farmers of Haryana had already suffered a huge loss and the failure to hike MSP would add to the problems of the farmers.
He alleged that the state as well the Centre had lost interest in the MSP system and wanted to do away with it.
Farmers' body urges govt to buy paddy
Our Correspondent
Sonepat, September 30
The district unit of the Kisan Sangharsh Samiti has demanded that the state-owned procurement agencies should come into the market immediately to purchase paddy, which had already arrived in the foodgrain markets of the district.
According to a report, it has alleged that huge crop of paddy has already been harvested and the farmers are being compelled to sell their produce at very low prices in the absence of procurement agencies of the government.
It also alleged that the rice seller owners are taking undue advantage of the helplessness of the growers and are purchasing paddy of different varieties at rates much below the support price fixed by the Union Government.
The samiti further said the paddy crop could not be kept standing in the fields and the farmers were compelled to harvest the crop very early.
It urged the district administration to immediately direct the procurement agencies to come into the market and purchase the paddy at the support price fixed by the government.
Meanwhile, the Haryana unit of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) has rejected the minimum support price (MSP) of paddy and other crops announced by the Centre and announced its decision to intensify the agitation against the BJP-led NDA Government at the Centre on this issue.
Addressing a Kisan Panchayat held at Ganaur town near here today, Mr Hari Singh Khokhar, President of the BKU, alleged that the refusal of the government to make any increase in the MSP was unjust and was a cruel joke on the farmers because prices of diesel, fertilisers, insecticides and other inputs had gone up enormously during the past few years.
He also alleged that the Vajpayee government had already proved to be anti-farmer and was pursuing such policies that were detrimental to the interests of the agricultural community under the dictates of the WTO.
CPM criticises Centre on paddy MSP
Rohtak, September 30
The Haryana unit of the CPM has severely criticised the Centre for not enhancing the minimum support price of paddy. The party has also expressed anguish over the callous attitude of Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala in this regard.
The state secretary of the party, Mr Inderjit Singh, has accused the Vajpayee government of being insensitive to the needs of the farmers, particularly in the aftermath of an unprecedented drought situation.
He said by deciding to keep the minimum support price of paddy at last year's level, he had ignored the interest of the farmers.
Both the Centre and the state government, he said, are aware that the farmers had to invest substantial additional inputs to save their paddy crop in the face of severe drought in the region. In this situation, he said, it was necessary to at least compensate the farmers through financial relief in the form of bonus.
The party expressed surprise over the Chief Minister's statement that private traders were purchasing paddy at rates higher than the minimum support price announced by the Centre.
Mr Inderjit Singh said that Mr Chautala should have prevailed upon the NDA government for safeguarding the interests of the farmers, as his INLD was part of the NDA led government at the Centre.
The CPM has supported the demand of the farmers for enhancing the minimum support price of paddy and urged the Centre to reconsider its decision.
The procurement agencies of the government should provide adequate bonus to paddy growers enter without any further delay.

Jhajjar, September 30
The rail traffic on the Delhi-Rohtak section, which remained suspended for nearly 18 hours after the derailment of a goods train just ahead of Bahadurgarh railway station here on Sunday night, was partially restored this afternoon.
A major tragedy was averted as a passenger train had passed just 15 minutes before the accident. All the passenger and express trains were cancelled after the derailment.
The work of lifting the wreckage of the derailed train and laying new tracks is going on a war-footing. A senior railway official claimed that the rail traffic would be restored by 8 pm tonight.
A three-member inquiry committee of the railway officials has been set up to look into the cause of the accident A goods train carrying grain derailed when it was about to reach Bahadurgarh railway station on Sunday night. Fourteen wagons of the train overturned, destroying about 100-meter rail line. The train departed from Bhatoo station in Hisar and was bound for Assam. It was running at high speed. The senior railway official told that the cause of the accident seems to be a technical defect in one of the wagons of the train.
The sources informed that an iron part of one of the wagons was reportedly entangled in the tracks, causing the derailment. Six wagons were completely smashed.
However, Mr V K Agrawal, Divisional Rail Manager, who supervised the restoration operation throughout the day, informed that 9023 Up Janta Express had cleared the track this afternoon and work was speedily progressing to mend the Down rail line which was likely to be restored by 8 pm tonight. Two special accident relief trains, along with hundreds of railways engineers and workers, were engaged in the restoration work.
He claimed a loss of Rs 2 lakh due to the accident, while the sources put the loss at least at Rs 1 crore. The DRM informed that a three-member inquiry committee had been set up to find the exact cause of the derailment. He regretted that local people gathered on the spot were interrupting the restoration work.
Nod to changes in Gurgaon stretch
Ravi S. Singh
Gurgaon, September 30
The district administration has been successful in prevailing over the National Highway Authority of Indian (NHAI), making it agree to the amendments in their blue print for widening the Delhi-Jaipur highway stretch falling in Gurgaon city.
According to a senior member of the administration, the NHAI has principally agreed to the suggestions to increase the number of underpasses and also make extensions to the proposed flyovers.
The Deputy Commissioner, Gurgaon, Mr Anurag Rastogi, who rooted for the amendments to the original layout plan, had taken up the issue with the NHAI authorities.
Mr Rastogi is credited with the view that the original plan had not addressed the practical problems that could possibly arise in future. Hence, the need for the amendments to make sure that the traffic movement and inter-connectivity of the roads leading to the highway were further enhanced.
The construction of flyovers and underpasses is part of a project to eight-lane the national highway, starting from Delhi to Gurgaon city.
The NHAI has agreed to extend the proposed flyover at Shankar Chowk, which has emerged as an important junction in the city. The landmarks at the Shankar Chowk intersection are the Udyog Vihar on one side of the highway and the residential sectors and colonies, including the DLF city, on the other.
Similar is the case of the proposed flyover at IFCO crossing, also known as the first bypass of the city. As against the original plan, the NHAI has seen merit in the suggestion to go in for extension of this flyover project. As against the earlier move to set up two-lane underpass at South City crossing, it will now be four-laned. The same will be the case at Jharsa crossing, where the proposed two-lane underpass will be expanded to four-lane.
On account of the intervention of the administration, the NHAI has also agreed to add a two-lane underpass at Jalvau Vihar. In all, as things stand today, three flyovers and three underpasses will be set up on the stretch of the highway falling in Gurgaon. The third flyover will be set up at Rajiv Chowk.
According to well-placed sources, there is no scope now for further amendments to the highway expansion plan. Meanwhile, the NHAI has already begun the process for eight-laning the highway.
HC dismisses plea for quashing of DJS rules
New Delhi, September 30
The Delhi High Court today dismissed a petition seeking quashing of the Delhi Judicial Services (DJS) Rules on the ground that they were violative of the provisions of the Constitution.
Ruling that the DJS Rules were in consonance with the Constitution, a division bench, comprising Justices Devinder Gupta and B N Chaturvedi, dismissed the petition, agreeing with the High Court Registrar's views that the Constitutional validity of the said Rules had been upheld by the Supreme Court in 1975.
The petitioners, S S Yadav and others, had challenged the DJSRules, pertaining to the appointment of judicial officers below the rank of District Judge, on the grounds that the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) had not been consulted while framing the rules, which was a statutory requirement. The Registrar, however, through his counsel Viraj Dattar maintained that the requirement had been done away with under the apex court's order.
On May 6, the High Court had declined to grant a stay on the recruitment of Judicial Officers in Delhi through a competitive examination, to be held on May 25 and 26, as sought by the petition which challenged the DJS Rules on the ground that they were discriminatory and arbitrary.
The bench had issued notices to the Lt Governor, Union Public Service Commission, Registrar Delhi High Court and Ministry of Law and Justice on the issue.
The petitioners, aspirants for the Delhi Judicial Services, included nine advocates, some of whom were employed as assistant public prosecutors. They said the rules were unconstitutional as they had made them ineligible for taking up the Judicial Service Examination of Delhi.
According to the petition, following the Supreme Court directive making three years' legal practice an essential qualification for Judicial Officers at the lowest rung, the upper age limit for eligibility for taking the examination had been raised by at least three years by all states, barring Delhi.
The failure of the Delhi Government to raise the upper age limit ran contrary to the directions of the apex court with respect to a uniform judicial system, the petition added.
Two different cut-offs regarding the upper age limit and for calculating the period of three years of legal practice, apart from being irrational, causes, in some cases, a situation where an aspirant for Delhi Judicial Service becomes ineligible to take the examination due to the fact that either of the two conditions are not fulfilled, it was pointed out.
This had been countered by the respondents, who quoting the All India Judges' Association case in which the SC had directed the High Courts and the State Governments to amend the respective Judicial Service Rules, so as to enable a fresh law graduate, who had not even put in three years of practice, to compete and enter the judicial services.
Counting sheep no longer helps put one to sleep
Smriti Kak
Early to bed and early to rise may no longer be the panacea for being healthy, wealthy and wise. A lot more needs to be done in these days of perennial stress of urban living if one has to achieve the three. A study conducted by the National Sleep Survey Organisation in the United States indicates that one third of the urban adult population is suffering from sleep related disorders.
Manifest in different forms, sleep disorders are on the rise not just in the Western countries, but doctors back home vouch that the Indians are as prone to this malady.
"There is an increase in the number of people who are afflicted with sleep related disorders. Insomnia is just one problem, there are others problems like difficulty in initiating sleep, which means you take longer to fall asleep", points out psychiatrist, Dr. Samir Parikh.
Stressing the need for what he dubs "sleep hygiene", Dr. Parikh asserts that incorrect sleeping patterns can lead to a host of secondary problems like heart ailments, anxiety and alcohol dependence. "Ironically, the presence of these ailments and disorders can affect the sleep patterns. It is therefore essential that the reasons for sleep disorders be verified. If a patient has to continue taking sedatives for more than three weeks without any change in his condition there is a need to consult a psychiatrist".
Blaming the lifestyle patterns and the stress that we face for sleep disorders, Dr. Parikh offers a prescription for those who find it hard not just to fall asleep, but are also plagued by early awakening and multiple awakening, which is a broken sleep with bursts of sleep.
"We need to create conducive environs for sleep. The first thing that we must do is to remove the television sets from the bedroom. It is important that we take a break of at least 30 minutes between the time we watched the last show on TV and the time we go to bed. TV viewing should be substituted with light reading or listening to light music".
Among other things listed by the doctor are maintaining a schedule for getting up each morning, "It is vital that we do not over sleep on holidays and weekends. Also we should go to bed only when we feel sleepy and avoid daytime naps".
While eating at proper intervals and physical fitness are encouraged, alcohol, nicotine and large meals at dinner are a strict no. "The bed has to be used for sleeping and unwinding, not for doing work. When you are doing any work in bed you are rousing yourself, whereas to sleep one needs to relax", explains Dr. Parikh.
"Sleep disorder can severely affect the work performance. Apart from making one physically tired it also affects the mental well-being. Ironically, when people are prescribed sleep inducing medicines, they refuse to take the tablets claiming that sedatives are harmful. This mindset needs to be changed, a sedative is like any other medicine, provided it is taken under medical supervision".
NCERT releases embargoed books
After getting the go-ahead from the Supreme Court last week, the controversial social sciences text book for class IX and the Hindi text books were released by the NCERT here today. Now, thousands of students and teachers, who were managing thus far without books, can heave a sigh of relief.
The publication of the books had been stopped after the Supreme Court granted a stay on a PIL filed by journalist B G Verghese, Aruna Roy and others who perceived it as an exercise to push the government's saffron agenda.
The books released today include Bal Bharti for classes I, III and VI, Naya Jeevan Bhag I for class VI, Sahitya Manjari Bhag I, Madhu Sanchay Bhag I (course A), Purva Bhag I, Katha Kalash (course B) for class IX, Sahitya Manjusha Bhag I (elective), Vividha Bhag I (core), Sahitya Shastra, Parichaya (elective) and Vasanti Bhag I (core) for class XI.
While the social sciences text books for class VI and IX have also been released, the History texts for class XI are likely to be released by October this year. With the Central Board of Secondary Education having instructed the schools to implement the new curriculum from the current academic session, the release of the texts ends months of speculation and turmoil.
School students and teachers had a harrowing time in the absence of the books, earlier this year, when the NCERT refused to publish old texts and with the stay order in force there was panic among students and teachers over the non-availability of texts.
The books will be distributed to the wholesale agents in the state for sale.
Bhajan Lal's show-cause politics angers leaders
Rewari, September 30
Many senior leaders of the Congress Party in Haryana have been unhappy with the functioning of the HPCC president, Mr Bhajan Lal. The 'anti Bhajan Lal faction' in Haryana, including senior leaders like Mr Bhupinder Singh Hooda, leader of the Haryana Congress Legislature Party (HCLP), Mr Birender Singh, member of the election committee, Miss Shailja, former Union Minister and Rao Inderjit Singh, MLA and member of the All India Congress Committee (AICC), have been unhappy with the affairs of the Congress Party in Haryana.
Taking a serious note of the `show cause notices' to over half a dozen DCC presidents (whose number has now reportedly swelled to ten) by the HPCC Chief, Mr Bhajan Lal, the leaders called on Mrs Mohsina Kidwai, AICC general secretary and incharge of party affairs in Haryana, at Delhi recently(September 28). Reportedly, they sought her prompt intervention in this grave matter and complained that the notices were unjustified.
Simultaneously, the four leaders also held a separate meeting with Mrs Ambika Soni, AICC general secretary and political secretary of the Congress president, Mrs Sonia Gandhi. They apprised her of the grave situation and sought an early end to it on the grounds that the DCC presidents, who had been served with show cause notices, had been appointed with the approval of the AICC president.
They complained that the party constitution made it obligatory for the PCC president to seek the prior permission of the Congress Working Committee (CWC) before a proceeding for the removal of the DCC president.
Interestingly, most of the recipients of these notices comprise those DCC presidents who had participated in the
Rewari rally of September 23, in which nine Congress legislators and eighteen DCC presidents, along with former HPCC president Mr Birender Singh had openly projected Ahir leader Rao Inderjit Singh, as their leader in effort to clean up the party in Haryana.
The former Union Minister, Miss Shailja, also participated in the rally which was attended by ten Congress legislators (including Rao Inderjit Singh). Close on the heels of the Rewari rally of September 23, the HPCC chief, Mr Bhajan Lal, had called on the Congress president, Mrs Sonia Gandhi, at Delhi on September 24 and is understood to have conveyed his feelings about their 'anti- party' activities in the state. Meanwhile, Mrs Mohsina Kidwai has reportedly asked the HPCC chief Bhajan Lal to meet her on October 1 in the Capital to sort out the matter.
JD(U) blames state for failure of welfare schemes
The Union Minister for Food Distribution and Civil Supplies, Mr Sharad Yadav, has said that 'corruption and inefficiency' at the level of the state government was the main hurdle for the ration not effectively reaching the poor. Addressing a workers meeting of the Janata Dal (U), here yesterday, Mr Yadav, who is also the head of the party, claimed that due to corruption, many people have been unable to benefit from the `yellow cards' (below the poverty line) and the `public distribution system (PDS).
Claiming that the Centre had been sending ration worth Rs 60,000 crore every year for the people living below the poverty line, he said a good amount of it was distributed to ineligible persons, leading to discontentment among the poor.
He said while 33 per cent population of the country was `poor', we have enough food grains to feed them.
On the issue of the 'SYL canal', Mr Yadav said such problems could be solved if all the rivers and water resources are brought under the direct control of the Union government.
Appealing to the party workers at the meeting organised at `Aggarwal Dharamshala in Ballabgarh, Mr Yadav asked the activists to work hard and win the confidence of the people, who are the real source of all political power.
He hoped that the Janata Dal (U) would be able to form the government in Haryana, if the activists keep working for the benefit of the people.
Claming that JD was the party of the people, he said it would gain strength In the future. Mr Balram Singh Yadav, MP, K.C.Tyagi, general secretary of JD(U), H.P.Singh, Mr Ved Prakash Vidrohi, Haryana Chief of JD (U) and general secretary, Mr Raj Kumar Gaur, were among others who were present at the meeting.
Faridabad, not Gurgaon, launch pad for CM
The Chief Minister, Mr Om Prakash Chautala, will launch the state-wide cleanliness drive from here on October 2. Earlier, it was announced that the CM would preside over such a function at Gurgaon to start off the campaign. According to the district authorities, Mr Chautala would launch the drive from the MCF auditorium here at 6.45 am and would flag off rallies by children to create mass awareness on the issue. This decision has certainly put the local administration on a high alert. Officials seem to be involved in formulating a strategy geared towards making the launch programme a success. The officials have roped in participation of various sections of society, including schoolchildren, resident welfare associations (RWAs), the Nehru Yuva Kendra, NSS volunteers, college staff and others. It proposes to flag off rallies from five different spots on the same day. The drive will last 15 days.
Sec 144 invoked
The district authorities have invoked the provisions of Section 144 to check the menace of stray pigs in the town. The Deputy Commissioner, in his order, has directed the municipal authorities here and at Palwal and Hodal towns to take action against the owners of the animals who let them roam around. It is stated that stray pigs would be nabbed and let off at a far-off place. The measures were taken after reports appeared about a large number of stray animals, including pigs, monkeys, donkeys and cows roaming or sitting on the roads or in residential areas. The MCF officials have also launched a drive to catch monkeys
BJP to enrol 10 lakh members
The Delhi unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has fixed a target of enrolling 10 lakh men and women as registered members. The campaign will be launched on Wednesday and continue through December 2. "People with criminal background would not be allowed to enrol as members of the party," Delhi BJP president Madan Lal Khurana told reporters on Monday.
He said the membership campaign would be launched in all the 16 districts, 139 mandals and cover 8,500 polling stations from October 3 through December 2.
Mr Khurana said efforts would be made that a minimum of 20 families participate and every active member makes at least 25 members, including eight women in every polling station.
"To make the organisation more effective and to strengthen the family feeling among the members, the state unit has been regu&&77larly organising meetings where special discussions to formulate a strategy for the forthcoming elections are discussed," he said. There are 6.5 lakh registered members in the BJP state unit.
Lottery trade: One man's meat,
another man's poison
Lottery business, which is becoming brisker by the day, may be a gravy train for those in the trade but to the discomfiture of the police, the practice threatens to wreak havoc on the lives of youngsters who are out to make a fast buck.
The sad fact is that the newcomers in this arena, who gradually become die-hard gambling addicts and consequent ruin themselves, comprise mostly the poor rickshaw-pullers, labourers and schoolchildren.
No wonder, the lottery stalls remain cramped, busy places thronged by such ready customers.
A lottery bazaar has also been set up in the old civil hospital the building of which has been demolished by the Sonepat Municipal Council for the establishment of a shopping complex.
This site is situated near the Civil Lines police station and the police officials remain silent and fail to check the curse despite the repeated complaints alleging that thousands of rupees have been changing hands every day.
The police attribute the popularity of the trade to the disquieting fact that certain illegal activities are being carried out in the garb of the lottery business in the city.
The most popular lottery for this kind of activity is the single digit wherein the result is declared by the end of the day. The common practice is what the police term "telephonic satta".
According to sources, in this system, certain numbers pertaining to the single digit lotteries are booked over phone and on the declaration of results, if the number turns but to be right, it yields rich dividends, both to the stall owner as well as the gambler.
Sources disclosed that in spite of this 'satta' being played right under their nose, the police were unable to check it as the deals made were oral in nature and consequently difficult to prove.
Sources added that certain lotteries not authorised to be sold in the city, as the states running them were not paying any tax to the administration, were also being sold.
The areas where lottery trade is flourishing are bus stand, Tarana Road, Subhash Chowk, Atlas Road, Sectors 14 and 15, Model Town and almost all the labour colonies in the city.
The police sources also revealed that the daily trading in lottery was worth several lakhs of rupees.
It is alleged that the police officials have been getting 'suvidha shulk' daily from the owners of the lottery stalls.
'Clean Up the World Campaign' takes off
In an ambitious attempt to clean up the environment through community-based programmes, the Australian High Commission, along with Delhi schools, today launched the India chapter of the ''2002 Clean Up the World Campaign'' at Gandhi Smriti here.
Launching the campaign ahead of Gandhi Jayanti, Australian Deputy High Commissioner Michelle Marginson said, ''We decided to start the programme today as a tribute to the man who championed the role of community action to make life better for ordinary people.''
It was befitting that a community-based campaign to make the world a better place was launched at Gandhi Smriti, the place where Mahatma Gandhi spent his last days, she said. ''In a world confronted with serious environment and social challenges, Gandhiji's teachings held great and continuing relevance,'' Ms Marginson observed.
He was ahead of his time and realised that the welfare of mankind could not be separated from that of the environment, the Deputy High Commissioner said. Gandhiji laid great emphasis on conserving resources and believed that every individual should play a part in sharing the labours essential to a healthy environment, she pointed out.
''The Clean Up the World campaign is a way of putting into practice the concept that positive action by individuals could add up and make a real difference,'' Ms Marginson said.
The "Clean Up the World Campaign" was begun in Australia a decade ago by Australian sailor and environmentalist Ian Kiernan, with a clean-up of the Sydney harbour and had since grown into a global movement, she said. ''Like many of Gandhiji's teachings, the concept is simple and universal. It can be practised by anyone, helping communities anywhere in the world,'' she noted.
Running in tandem with the United Nations Environment Programme, this campaign had involved community groups, schools and individuals the world over and organised clean-up events every September, Ms Marginson noted. ''The programme has inspired millions of people each year, in 140 countries around the world, who have volunteered to make the environment a cleaner, healthier place,'' she said.
The theme of this year's ''Clean Up the World'' campaign was ''Your Community: Our Earth'', Ms Marginson said.
The Australian High Commission had for the last few years been involved in bringing Delhi schools and students into this worldwide movement, the Deputy High Commissioner said.
Last year's campaign in Delhi was not limited to the day of its launch but some schools continued with clean-up activities in slums and parks throughout the year, she pointed out.
As many as 500 students from 19 Delhi schools today took part in a symbolic clean-up of Gandhi Smriti, rededicating themselves to values advocated and practised by Mahatma Gandhi.
Following the launch, the participating schools will organise clean-ups in their neighbourhoods and communities. The 19 schools which participated in today's programme include Amity International School, Ramjas School, Delhi Public School, Tagore International School and Naval Public School.
Cops must be exposed to literature: IG
"Policemen must be exposed to literature, if we want to bring an attitudinal change in their style of functioning".
This observation was made by Mr V. N. Rai, IG, an IPS officer of Haryana cadre posted in Delhi at present, while talking to some newspersons here recently. Mr Rai, who was here in connection with a book fair, which is to be held here from October 1 next, stated that literature could play an extremely important role in perfection and refinement of human values and various aspects of life. When asked about his love for Hindi literature, Mr Rai said literature was also important for people from a department like the police, which deals directly with the masses a lot. He said a cop could work more judiciously or in a polished manner if he had good interest in literature as the latter helps in developing
human values and proper behaviour pattern. Clearly hinting towards the fact that a system of values and soft behaviour were the need of the hour for policemen also, he said
this could not be achieved if there was no proper development of literature. He stressed that a cop's behaviour could be changed easily if he read good literature regularly. A cop today needed such an exposure, he added.
He said he had a personal collection of about 1,000 books. The senior police officer, who has served in several districts, rued the lack of interest among publishers to bring out books at affordable and cheaper rates.
'There should be one doctor for six hundred people'
Megha Manchanda
Dr Sushil Kumar (MBBS, MS, MCH), Dean, Maulana Azad Medical College, took the reins of the college in 2001. Dr Kumar, who gives more credit to his faculty, started his career in medicine in 1966. Since then he has worked with various hospitals including Safdarjung and GB Pant Hospital. Dr Kumar, who is a neuro surgeon, has lately taken rest from surgery and is presently working as a Dean with Maulana Azad Medical College, New Delhi.
He is known for his modesty. In a chat with the NCR Tribune, he gives most of the credit for the smooth functioning of the college to the faculty.
Excerpts from the interview:
What were the difficulties faced by you initially?
Nothing and there are no difficulties as such. Everything is laid out as a plan and I only follow the rules. Also the faculty members are of great help.
As far as the changes are concerned, there have been a few and others are in the process. New Dental College is being set up for the BDS students. Also, a bank-cum-guesthouse is in the process of being constructed.
What steps have you taken to provide quality education to the students of your college?
The college has an excellent faculty, which proves to be a boon for the students. There are 192 faculty members in the college.
And also there are medical assistants to train the students. Expenditure of Rs 50 lakhs is incurred on the library alone, which provides latest books to the students for reference.
Are the students from your college sent for campaigns organised by various NGOs and government organisations?
Yes, the students are regularly sent for campaigns and health melas, organised by the government i.g. Pulse polio immunisation camp. Recently, our students were sent at the Health Mela, organised by the Health Ministry.
Do you think the medical fraternity is paid less as compared to their counterparts in other fields?
No, absolutely not. They are not paid less. As a matter of fact, there is lesser number of promotions in our field as compared to others.
Hence, the scale seems less otherwise doctors are well paid.
Throw some light on the diminishing ratio of students taking up MBBS as their profession.
I would not say that the ratio of the students taking up medicine as a career option has gone down during the years.
Since the population of the country is increasing, consequently is the growing need of doctors in the country.
We are working towards with an aim that six hundred people per doctor, which should be the minimum in country like ours.
DELHI DIGEST
MCD directed to take action against
illegal constructions
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has directed the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to take action against illegal constructions in Karol Bagh area of the Capital and file a report within six weeks.
Acting on a complaint filed by the president of the Krantikari Subhash Manch, Mr Ved Prakash Aggarwal that the MCD was not taking action against illegal constructions in the area, the NHRC asked the MCD Commissioner, Mr Rakesh Mehta, to take appropriate action and send an Action Taken Report within six weeks.
Mr Aggarwal, a shop-owner and resident of Karol Bagh, had complained that illegal buildings were being constructed in the area without obtaining permission from the authority. He said most of these illegal constructions had basements, which violated the Supreme Court directive.
However, despite complaints to the MCD, Delhi Development Authority (DDA), the police and the Urban Development Ministry, nothing had been done to check these illegal constructions.
Mr Aggarwal further mentioned that he and his family were receiving threatening phone calls because of his protests against illegal constructions.
The police officials even threatened to book his son under some false case. Mr Aggarwal urged the NHRC to direct the police to take appropriate steps for his personal security as he was receiving threatening phone calls.

The piece was not published during Mozart's lifetime. The second movement is in the key of G major, the dominant key of C major. It was first published in February 1805 by the Bureau des arts et d'Industrie in Vienna. Surely not! He may have written the piece for a pupil. The Sonata No. In the end, the story behind the sonata is a mystery. It modulates through different keys before returning to C major. On 26 June 1788, he added the piece to his catalogue as "a little Piano Sonata for beginners". On 2 August 1788 Mozart wrote a letter to his sister Nannerl. He may have written the piece for a pupil. The first movement is written in sonata form. The first theme appears again. It is followed by a coda, and the rondo ends in C major. It was put together with a solo piano arrangement of the second movement of the violin sonata in F major. He wrote, "Indeed you have every reason to be vexed with me! The second theme is in G major. It is in the key of C major.

Man United face £75m revenue loss without Champions League
Date published: Tuesday 7th May 2019 6:56
Manchester United's failure to qualify for the Champions League will cost the club approximately £50million in lost revenue, football finance experts have said.
Arsenal face a similar fate if they fail to qualify for Europe's premier club competition for a third straight season but they at least still have a chance of doing so via the Europa League, as they take a 3-1 lead into the second leg of the semi-final in Valencia on Thursday.
Domestically, however, Arsenal and United are only fighting each other to avoid finishing sixth, a placing that could mean they have to ditch late-July plans for lucrative friendlies and play in the Europa League's second qualifying round instead.
That, however, is only a small part of the financial penalty they face for such lacklustre Premier League campaigns.
Dr Dan Plumley is a senior lecturer in sports business management at Sheffield Hallam University and he believes missing out on Champions League football will hurt both clubs in several ways.
"It's a ballpark figure because of the way UEFA distributes the money and that system is changing next season," said Plumley.
"But there is nothing to suggest the market pool for English clubs will deviate that much so we can be reasonably sure that failure to qualify will cost them in the region of £50million of broadcast and prize money."
Another risk for United is a potential 30 per cent reduction in income from their kit deal with Adidas, as the sportswear company is entitled to a discount if the Red Devils miss out on Champions League football for two consecutive seasons.
That would cost them an additional £25million in lost revenue and while it is not an immediate threat it should be noted that United have now finished outside the top four in three of the last six seasons and have another Thursday/Sunday campaign ahead of them.
Dr Stefan Szymanski, a professor of sport management at the University of Michigan and co-author of the hugely influential book Soccernomics, agrees with Plumley's estimate of the price of failure.
"Last season, English clubs got between 40million euros, Manchester United, and 81million euros, Liverpool, from the UEFA Champions League distribution, plus home gate money," Szymanski told PA Sport.
"That's £35-70million and Arsenal made £419million that year without Champions League football, so you can see that it would have been worth an extra 10 per cent on revenues."
Arsenal's financial performance in 2017/18 was also boosted by two factors that do not apply this season: the first was they made a big profit on player trading and the second was that they took the lion's share of the English market pool for the Europa League as Everton went out early and the Gunners reached the semi-finals.
The club have signed new deals with kit-supplier Adidas and main sponsor Emirates which should add £55million to annual turnover but these do not kick in until 2019/20 and it is not known if they are subject to the same penalty clauses as the one Adidas agreed with United.
As a result, the usually reliable Arsenal Supporters Trust has predicted the club will post a total loss of £60million this season.
In a withering assessment of the club's finances sent to its membership in January, the trust noted that ex-chief executive Ivan Gazidis once spoke about Arsenal becoming as financially strong as Bayern Munich.
The two clubs have grown apart since then, though, and the AST report lamented that the most recent Deloitte Money League had Arsenal "on the verge of dropping out of Europe's top 10 clubs and falling behind all our main English rivals, including Spurs".
With Champions League-related income set to increase next season, the report said "we expect to see Tottenham overtake Arsenal – that is frankly shocking".
There is, however, another major headache for both Arsenal and United to consider as they plan for life on the wrong side of European football's velvet rope.
"The biggest clubs and best talent want to perform at the highest level," said Dr Dan Parnell, a senior lecturer in sports business at the University of Liverpool.
"Both clubs aspire to return to their normal and expected operations, which typically included strategic, long-term decision-making within their recruitment departments.
"But failure to offer Champions League football to prospective playing talent, will hinder the role of the future director of football who will no doubt be tasked with leading each club back into the echelons of European football."

"Becoming" is one of the most anticipated political books in memory, ranking at the top of Amazon's best-sellers on Friday. That's often the case with the memoirs of former first ladies, including Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush. But Mrs. Obama defied her exalted status in the annals of history by cultivating an image of a modern woman with whom many Americans would like to sip wine and chat.

Как в данном примере получить последнее слово более N букв?
Например, сейчас выводится: "Белеет парус одинокий в тумане моря голубом.Что ищет он в..." А нужно: "Белеет парус одинокий в тумане моря голубом.Что ищет..."
Т.е. в данном случае нужно убрать в конце все слова менее 3-х букв.

A: $string="Белеет парус одинокой В тумане моря голубом!.. Что ищет он в стране далекой? Что кинул он в краю родном?.. Играют волны — ветер свищет, И мачта гнется и скрыпит... Увы! он счастия не ищет, И не от счастия бежит! Под ним струя светлей лазури, Над ним луч солнца золотой... А он, мятежный, просит бури, Как будто в бурях есть покой!";

Last evening we had the opportunity to watch Freeholder Director Phil Crabb try to pass the blame and make excuses for a solar project that he, Rich Vohden, and Dennis Mudrick voted to bail out with millions of taxpayers' money. Crabb made his statement on Vernon Vibes, a public service cable program.
To make matters worse, at about the same time in Frankford, Mayor Gary Larson was leading the charge against even investigating the solar mess -- that's like sending the police away after a bank has been robbed. But isn't that just like Sussex County?
Meanwhile, over in Morris County, they were acting like grown-ups and making sure that their taxpayers wouldn't be robbed again. The Star-Ledger reported that two consultants connected with the deal had been asked to resign and their resignations accepted.
A month after investing more millions on a three-county solar project that fizzled amid an industry downturn, the Morris County freeholders and the county's improvement authority have accepted the resignation of two experts who advised on both the initial deal - and the bailout.
Morris County is now "looking for a possible exit strategy from the solar business," the county said in a release.
Stephen Pearlman, the Morris County Improvement Authority's attorney, and Steve Gabel, the head of energy consultant Gabel Associates, both submitted letters of resignation on Wednesday, which were accepted.
Pearlman was the attorney who advised on the project's setup, according to public documents. As the attorney for the improvement authority, he helped convince Sussex County to join with Somerset and Morris counties in the project.
Gabel advised on solar-energy prices, which plummeted just as the project was being built, according to those documents.
The three-county project was based on the "Morris model," a public-private way of financing that intermingles tax subsidies, private investment, and taxpayer money. The electricity produced would help pay off the public debt. Sussex, Somerset and Morris counties collectively borrowed $88 million to finance the project, which began in 2011.
But tumbling solar subsidy prices and litigation between the contractor and developer derailed the project, leaving roughly half the work in Morris and Sussex counties unfinished. Arbitrators awarded $66.3 million to the contractor, Power Partners MasTec, against developer SunLight General Capital LLC, according to court documents. SunLight then hired a bankruptcy law firm, using some $700,000 of the public money.
The counties then borrowed an additional $21 million last month to end all the litigation and to try and get the projects back on track - and limit losses. Critics, most notably Assemblyman Parker Space and Sussex County freeholders Gail Phoebus and George Graham, have requested an outside investigation into where the money went. A series of Sussex County municipalities have also requested the resignations of multiple county officials.
Pearlman and Gabel both did not comment on the reason for their resignation in their letters. Pearlman, reached by phone, declined comment. Their resignations take effect June 1.

Kingston Economic Development Corporation is pleased to host a "Developing a HACCP Plan" workshop on Tuesday, September 11 presented by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA). Workshop participants will receive a certificate of completion for this course. Registration is limited to ensure that participants are able to work with the food safety advisor to develop a HACCP plan for their individual operations. For this reason, priority will be given to participants who are employed in the food/beverage processing industries and/or who have responsibility for food safety measures.
This workshop has been designed by OMAFRA's Food Safety division, and it fulfills the regulatory requirement for HACCP training. Businesses operating within the City of Kingston will be given registration priority.
This is full day workshop, and only participants that complete the entirety of the training will receive a certificate. Please note that lunch is not provided, and participants are encouraged to bring a "brown bag" lunch as the lunch break is a strict 30 minutes, which does not allow for travel off site.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) is an approach to food safety that is systematic and preventive. It is recommended by the Codex Alimentarius Commission, the United Nations international standards organization for food safety. HACCP is used by most countries around the world. It has been in use since the 1960s. HACCP goes beyond inspecting finished food products. It helps to find, correct, and prevent hazards throughout the production process. These include physical, chemical, and biological hazards.
In 2005, HACCP became mandatory in Canada for federally-registered meat and poultry establishments. In federally-registered fish establishments, the principles of HACCP are followed under the Quality Management Program, or QMP.
HACCP is not mandatory in federally-registered dairy, processed product, egg, honey, maple and hatchery establishments. However, the CFIA strongly recommends that these establishments adopt HACCP.
Developing, implementing, and maintaining a HACCP system is industry's responsibility. This is because food manufacturers have the most control over the products they manufacture, so they have the greatest impact on the safety of their products.
Non-mandatory processors can voluntarily obtain HACCP recognition through the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA).

Surfshark vs Generous VPN 2023
Ease of Use 10.0/10
With VPNs, you tend to get what you pay for. So when I saw Surfshark's super low prices (you can get it for just $2.30/month), I was a bit skeptical about its rave reviews. To find out if it actually lives up to these claims, I tested every single aspect of Surfshark, including speeds, security features, unblocking abilities, network reliability, and device compatibility. I also took a closer...
Five star vpn
Best I've ever used. All good, no complaints at all. I had a couple of questions when I first started ... using it, reached out to customer service. They were quick to respond, friendly, and helpful. I'm looking forward to them making the Surfshark Search feature a separate app.More
Doesn't work for BBC
The only reason I bought it. Constant error msgs from iPlayer, individual channels like 4 and 5 were a... ccessible--until the latest update. Now nothing works. Spend more money on something that's more reliable.More
A User-Friendly and All-Round Safe, Reliable VPN I 100% recommend Surfshark. Of all its competitors, it has the best value and provides you with everything a top VPN should: multiple advanced security features, reliable network and speeds, consistent unblocking abilities, and a strong commitment to user privacy and security. I was really impressed with Surfshark's customer support and its level of transparency while reading over its privacy policy, as well. In addition, one of its greatest selling points is that you can connect an unlimited number of devices simultaneously, making its comparably lower price point even more worth it. The biggest issue is that its logging policy hasn't been checked and audited, and it's headquartered within the 9-Eyes Alliance — concerning from a privacy perspective. But overall, Surfshark is a high-quality VPN in almost every way. Try Surfshark Today Fast speeds for HD streaming and gaming Reliably unblocks Netflix, Disney+,

When you set up the blog, you should be able to have all your links to side as part of the template. That means they will stay there and not slip down.
You can also have your blog role, any other things of interest etc.
Go into "Layout" and start fiddling with you gadgets. For instance, I have my YouTube channel as top gadget, then other websites, then blog role, etc. You could have your books and you can put them in so they look less clumsy.
Do you know how to do a hyperlink?
Oh Charlotte, this is SO useful, thank you! I still can't really make it work, will have to try again... I don't suppose you're in London and persuadable with a coffee to help me (with blog basics) any time?!? I'd love to get my books showing properly, as you suggest, and get it sorted.
Actually, sorry to ask (that is cheeky of me & you're busy) thanks for allowing me into your FEAST Facebook group.
have a look see and then you can fiddle around with your own and delete this comment!


Lowborn wives examined goods from wooden stalls, as laborers moved and unloaded wagons across the wide cobbled streets. The town's buildings showed the wealth of the area with painted wooden doors and shutters; most were wide open to let in the day's sun. They were obviously far from the frontline of the war here.
He'd expected a very different sort of welcome and wasn't sure what bothered him more, the idea that he'd volunteered for a wild hob chase, or that they would find what they had come looking for.
For the last several days, he had been working to make a good impression with the senior knights and their leader, the paladin Sire Iolan. He was not just a holy warrior of the Order of Helio-Lustria but also a captain who held land and a title in the order's name.
Masnin of Westspring had eagerly answered the paladin's call for noble men to join him on a mission for his order. He was the third son of a minor knight with no lands of his own, and that meant he would have to make his own way in the world.
The best way to avoid that, and the shame of poverty, was for him to join an order, but there were only two ways to do that. You could be sponsored at a young age and raised by the order, or a knight with a few brave feats to his name could be invited. Well, that or use connections his humble upbringing didn't give him. He would have to make do by displaying the dignity and skill of a true knight.
"If you keep grimacing like that you'll pull a muscle, and then your face will stay like that forever," said a voice from beside him.
"I don't have a look on my face," he replied, annoyed.
Masnin's own thin frame betrayed the past few years he had spent traveling the countryside and living off the hospitality of country lords. Not all of them had been very welcoming.
Sir Annis, who was short but heavily built, led the group to a large and comfortable looking inn. One of the taller buildings in the town at three stories high, the inn was clearly meant for the better class of travelers; the kind of place he hadn't been able to stay at since he became a knight.
Despite the friendly and professional atmosphere, Masnin couldn't bring himself to let someone else handle his possessions unwatched. He had little enough to steal, but that only made his scant belongings more precious to him. He walked back outside to watch.
"I just don't want to forget," he replied.
Masnin had been in enough stables to know this was far from standard practice, especially in such a thriving little town. Wheels turned in his mind, perhaps the missing people hadn't gone as unnoticed as it seemed.
"Da, just said to make sure. Been doing it for a week. Ever since..." the boy said before stopping suddenly.
The knight cast a suspicious glance around the stable. He would have to take extreme measures if he wanted answers, and it wouldn't do to be seen. He reached down to his belt and grabbed his coin purse. It was depressingly light in his grasp. He riffled through it until he felt the familiar shape of a penny in his fingers, and then he took it out and held it in front of the boy.
"Two nights ago, a guard went missing in the night. Everybody was talking about it because he had a wife and kids. And then people started talking about how others had gone missing, but nobody really noticed they were missing because they didn't have no families. That's all I know, honest," The boy whispered back, as he took the coin.
Masnin stepped out of the boy's way. He grabbed his baggage from his saddle and turned to follow the boy out of the stable, and into the hallway that led to the common room.
When he returned to the common room, the only one of his companions he saw was Rusk, who was sitting by himself. He didn't really like Rusk but he was short on friends, and as fellow knights and brothers in arms they should learn to get along.
"I suspect that everyone here is not as carefree as they appear to be, and a companion who's handy with a blade might be more important than good looks," the other knight answered.
An hour later, Iolan returned and set them about their work. The paladin didn't mention what investigation he had done but his preparations were obvious.
Armed only with their swords and torches they walked the streets. Masnin would have preferred a silent vigil but that apparently wasn't an option.
"Sire Iolan is a holy knight of Helio, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't besmirch the name of my happily married brothers," Masnin replied angrily.
After several seconds of listening he heard nothing though, so he sighed. It seemed he'd embarrassed himself once more.
Sir Rusk did not reply though, he was staring upwards. Masnin followed Rusk's gaze until it came to rest upon a piece of cloth that was hanging out of reach off the side of the sheer ally wall.
Thankies for the great chapter!!
There's something to these ghouls, they seem to be more intelligent than your average zombie. I suspect they may have been designed rather than manifested. Some sinister intellect delberatly creating a weapon against the light.

A commercial airline is suddenly flying into San Ignacio with regular flights from CANCUN MEXICO. A Casino operator opened a $3m casino in SAN IGNACIO. The same operator built a 1. 5 million nightclub in SAN IGNACIO. Billions of dollars being invested by international hotel chains in SAN IGNACIO. A private company built a brand new hospital in SAN IGNACIO. What do they all know about SAN IGNACIO?Would successful corporations invest millions of dollars into a sleepy hollow town unless they knew it was going to get VERY BIG?
The big players only invest their money if they are absolutely certain it will pay off.

What are the Benefits of Electric Vehicles?
The 2022 EQS is one of the most innovative and market-leading alternative energy luxury vehicles hitting the road today, and it's available right here at Mercedes-Benz of Jacksonville. Our team is here to help you find the perfect vehicle every time, which is why we're sharing all the benefits of purchasing electric cars, and why the new Mercedes-EQ might be the car for you.
Benefits of Purchasing an Electric Vehicle
If you're on the fence about electric vehicles, we get it. We're sharing all you need to know about purchasing, owning, and maintaining electric vehicles. Here are just a few of the big benefits of buying electric:
You Reduce Your Impact: One of the biggest reasons to consider purchasing an electric vehicle is that you reduce your impact on the environment. Electric vehicles use electricity, rather than gas, to run, which means lower emissions output and reduced air pollution.
You'll Save Money on Gas: Unlike hybrid and plug-in hybrid models, electric vehicles require no fuel to run. That means you'll reduce your reliance on fuel and save money with every ride.
You'll Save Money at Purchase: Electric vehicles have available tax incentives and subsidies to help make them more appealing to curious drivers. You can save thousands of dollars on an electric vehicle thanks to federal tax credits.
You'll Need Less Service: Another way you can save money when you purchase electric is through Mercedes-Benz service. Electric vehicles have fewer parts than internal combustion engine cars, so you can schedule service less often and save.
When you're ready to test out exciting electric vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz EQ, come down to Mercedes-Benz of Jacksonville and take the first ride. Begin enjoying the many benefits of owning an electric vehicle today.

Нересничка језера се налазе у источној Србији, у атару села Нересница, надомак Кучева.
Први локалитет је у засеоку Лунка, а други у засеоку Кисела Вода.

Карактеристике
Ова језера зову и језера у Лунки, језера краља Александра, краљева језера...
Целина се састоји од неколико мањих језера углавном величине око 100 х 50 метара, која су настала вештачки, људским активностима, услед испирања злата крај Пека у периоду између Првог и Другог светског рата.

Језера у складном низу у дужини од око 2 км прате десну обалу Пека низводно према Кучеву, где се на ободима кучевских предграђа завршавају. Језера су међусобно повезана текућом водом, која на појединим местима прераста у канал широк између 5 и 15 метара.

Језера су увек бистра, јер вода не долази директно из Пека, већ из његових подземних вода, где се због песковитог земљишта формира природни филтер за пречишћавање.

Назив
Језера су добила опште прихваћено име због села у чијој близини се налазе, али их многи зову и краљева језера.
Почетком 30 – их година 20. века, краљ Александар је основао акционарско друштво 'Нересница - Глоговица' за експлоатацију злата из златоносног Пека. Купљен је огроман рударски багер за ископавање и испирање песка, о чему данас сведоче ова минијатурна језера, па отуда и тај назив.

I think the fact that I gained three pounds on our Thanksgiving trip to San Antonio pretty much sums it up — lots of food and great times with my family! Shequita and I got an exhausting start to our trip, leaving Las Vegas Wednesday at 8:00PM and flying overnight to arrive in San Antonio at 5:00Am. We took a nap for a few hours, ate breakfast, and then had a feast to end all feasts. I probably munched down an entire pie throughout the day! It was just because I enjoyed being surrounded by family so much! We had my uncle and his kids, my aunt and uncle and their kids, so that there were probably fifteen people at my mom's house! We watched football and my uncles went shopping for Black Friday. At the theater, we saw Bad Mom's Christmas, which was funny as hell.
If you want to know how you could afford more time with your family and save money on your taxes, contact me.

LGBTQ New Year's Eve Options for Seattle!
The Tuck Tapes – Drag Race All Stars 4...
January 1, 2019 Comments Off on The Best Queer Music of 2018 Views: 5549 *The Year In Review, Arts & Entertainment, Gay 101, Music, Music-Queercore, Queer Music, Trans* Arts & Entertainment
The Best Queer Music of 2018
Troye Sivan (photo credit Billboard)
On what feels like the Eve of Impeachment, 2018 has come to a close and Trump's administration is steadily imploding. Y'all, we deserve all the joy and art we can derive from these seemingly insufferable years!
Queer musicians kept the love alive and the creativity flowing throughout 2018, inspiring future generations of LGBTQ leaders and giving veteran activists something to look forward to. These singers, songwriters, instrumentalists, and producers told stories of queer love, intersectional strife, heartache, self-empowerment, and hope.
Here we present, in no special order, 20 of the year's best songs by queer musicians.
Pynk, by Janelle Monáe
She came out as pansexual. She made her relationship with Tessa Thompson public. She toured the world. And she released the most stunning visual album of the year. 2018 is the year Janelle Monáe became Kwayne of the Kweers. While each song from Dirty Computer is a certified banger, "Pynk" is the album's standout as an iconic music video and a culture-shifting empowerment anthem celebrating queer/female/POC sexuality.
Dance to This, by Troye Sivan
Troye had several successful projects this year, including a wildly successful album in Bloom, a haunting cover song from the Freddie Mercury biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, a lauded acting role in the conversion therapy powder keg film Boy Erased, and an award-nominated single in the film's soundtrack. But his partnership with pop princess Ariana Grande has propelled the gay Australian singer to new heights in the American music industry. Don't blink.
Nite and Day, by Meshell Ndegeocello
After getting her start in 1993 with poetic R&B and unapologetically heartbreaking soul music, Meshell has maintained a steady creative canon of albums up through this year with the cover album Ventriloquism. Past projects have spanned collaborations with John Mellencamp, a Nina Simone tribute compilation, and 10 Grammy nominations. But this cover of "Nite and Day" by Al B. Sure! is representative of her dynamic compositional vision and her ability to transcribe the innermost spiritual essences from hip hop's early grooves.
Correct, by MNEK
Born in London as Uzoechi Osisioma Emenike, MNEK (get it?) is a hip hop phenom of Nigerian descent. Sure, he's had his hands in projects for Dua Lipa, JoJo, Kylie Minogue, and Beyoncé Herself. Sure, he's been nominated for multiple Grammy awards. And sure, he's released a delightful duet with Hailee Steinfeld. But his solo endeavor with the album Language has truly showcased his glorious femme sensibility and musical skill.
Promises, by Sam Smith
This British gospel singer turned pop powerhouse has ridden white women's heartbreak all the way to the bank, and cashed that fat check for some sexpot singles. His homage to the late and great Gay Zaddy George Michael revamped his brand from sad and sentimental to sensual and seductive. And now he's keeping audiences bopping with this lightning-in-a-bottle project with David Guetta, including a video celebrating queer vogue culture.
Waitin (the KAYTRANADA remix), by Kelela
Kelela, a Washington D.C. native, took the music scene by storm last year with the bombshell album Take Me Apart. It's no wonder then that Haitian-Canadian DJ KAYTRANADA took the queer artist's smooth dance hit "Waitin" and remixed it with technical finesse and an African sonic landscape. Kelela is now earning every ounce of her fame with her old-school R&B flavor and her fashion-forward lewks.
Love Me, by Claire Michelle
Now living in Seattle, Claire is a magnetic artist whose steady passion is as evident in her raw vocal musicality as it is in her acoustic guitar stylings. After writing "Fall," a song for 2017's somber Transgender Day of Remembrance, Claire has continued to evolve as a musician and as a voice for trans women.
Ghost Limb, by Jay Boogie
In this long-awaited return to the scene after his 2015 release of the ethereal album My H.O.E., queer rapper Jay Boogie spins a deeply affecting groove in this single with Billy-On. Jay is a Brooklyn native with Dominican roots and refuses to betray his femininity despite his hard-hitting beats. Perhaps we'll see him grace the screen in Season 2 of POSE, or produce records with other queer hip hop artists like Young M.A. and Todrick Hall?
I Can't Breathe, by Shamir
Shamir has been slowly building a career bit by bit. His first popular single "On the Regular" garnered millions of YouTube views. Since then the non-binary, Philly-based musician (who uses male pronouns) has released several hit music videos and appeared in Season 1 of Netflix's prolific Dear White People series. "I Can't Breathe" is a departure from Shamir's previous upbeat pop sound and, with a slow shoegaze rock tenderness, hauntingly narrates the horrors of police brutality against black Americans.
Walls, by Kenton Chen
An alumni of NBC's The Sing-Off, Kenton Chen is a singer, songwriter, and actor whose musical talent has expanded beyond his jazz beginnings. Fans will recognize the vocal purity and melodic instincts he demonstrates in "Walls," similar to those of Sara Bareilles, with whom he has performed. Kenton is one to watch as Broadway and Los Angeles compete for his astounding artistry.
Shallow, by Lady Gaga
Listen. If you haven't already, just come the fuck around on Lady Gaga. She's a Golden Globe winner for her spellbinding performance in American Horror Story: Hotel. She's a many-times-over Grammy winner. She's a deserving Academy Award nominee for her single "Til It Happens to You" which in large part helped spur Hollywood's #TimesUp conversation. Now, she's preparing to clean house at the Oscars for her work in A Star Is Born, perhaps not as Best Actress but certainly worthy of Best Original Song with "Shallow." Just accept it: This bisexual singer, composer, actress, and songwriter is a cultural phenomenon.
You Were the One, by Mario Jose
Mario is a lovable YouTube star who has collaborated with Pentatonix, John Legend, Paula Cole, and Prince. While his smoky tenor voice makes for a perfect choral blend with other artists, his solo career has blossomed with beautiful ballads and feel-good anthems. "You Were the One" artfully showcases the smooth vocals and sweet presence of this openly gay California singer.
Curious, by Hayley Kiyoko
If you're older than 25, you may not have heard of Hayley. But young fans stan this Los Angeles-based lesbian icon nearly as much as student loan forgiveness. She has appeared in multiple TV and film projects, but she also boasts a burgeoning pop music career. And in what might sound like a simplistic summer jam, Hayley narrates in "Curious" the sensual and painful cat-and-mouse pursuit of a sexual relationship with a "straight" woman.
Boys, by Lizzo
Basically it's Lizzo's world and we're all just here to witness her. She's a proud thick femme queer black woman and heaven help the greedy record executive or loudmouth naysayer who tries to stand in her way. Hailing from Houston and Minneapolis, Lizzo has released 5 studio albums—and fans are hungry for another. Get into it.
Gifts, by Katastrophe
Full name Rocco Katastrophe, the San Francisco rapper blazed trails in 2004 as a trans man with a hip hop album. After 4 studio albums, Katastrophe's musical output has slowed, but Inflower & Cosmet have remixed his original track "Gifts" and created a multilayered, transfixing auditory journey of sophisticated chord progressions. It's a departure from his hip hop discography but easily one of the musician's best projects to date.
We Don't Care, by Chris Willis
Chris Willis, a former gospel golden boy, now takes us to church with energetic in-the-pocket dance bops. The gay Ohio native has teamed up with David Guetta for past collaborations and topped the Billboard dance charts. This year, Chris elevated his consistently groovy career even further with this partnership with DJ Robbie Rivera.
Rent, by Big Freedia
Hailing from New Orleans is Freddie Ross, a self-identified gay man who has created the gender-fucking femme stage presence Big Freedia. Her hip hop career presence is small but mighty and blends an old-school rap sensibility with fresh, contemporary production values. But most of all, Freedia is known for her high-power live performances with choreographed numbers and audience participation twerk battles. "Rent" is a featured single on the 3rd Ward Bounce EP, a collection of tracks that slap like Dynasty.
Taxi (the Skyshaker remix), by Le1f
A New York rap wonder and skilled producer, Le1f is a gay man with a career to watch. He has released multiple EPs and singles, but his first and only studio album Riot Boi cemented Le1f's well-deserved throne in the indie hip hop pantheon. Now with this year's EP Blue Dream, he has continued his musical evolution with casual rhymes and deep soundscapes.
Maraschino-Red Dress $8.99 at Goodwill, by Ezra Furman
Frayed vocal aesthetics and a punk influence pervade Ezra's discography, both in his solo career and in his frontman role with bands like The Harpoons, The Boyfriends, and The Visions. Though music critics have mistaken his frequent femme fashion as a genderqueer or nonbinary identity, Ezra has clarified that he identifies as an androgynous bisexual man who simply does manhood differently than traditional gender roles have prescribed. And this commitment to an authentic self is as apparent in his interviews as it is in his albums.
The Joke, by Brandi Carlile
After another year of division and bigotry, turmoil and abuse, intersectional minority communities need each other more than ever. And with Brandi's consistently brilliant voice breathing life into this nurturing ode to hope, "The Joke" serves as an inspirational ballad calling upon us to be proud, bolster ourselves, and ride out the storm. It's no wonder the track is a Grammy nominee for 2018 Song of the Year.
As we march into 2019, keep supporting the LGBTQ artists who produce the inspirational, campy, heartbreaking, dance-worthy, and powerful music that keeps our stories affirmed and our spirits on the rise.

Someone has already mentioned having wheelchair users as guests. How about signs also ie disabled toilets?
Are they actually doing this? Seems like a lot of work for something so minor. Nee models, animations etc.
I guess toilets won't be a problem as they are designed to work right now. The toilet is just two gates in a box; one for entering at the left and one for exit at the right. You can't se any division of gender and it's highly imaginable this happens inside the facility. As well for disabled toilets I imagine. So they won't need to design an extra toilet just for implementing disabled people. I'm more concern about the animation for getting them in and out of the different rides.


The Volvo Lounge Console takes "in car luxury to a new level" by replacing the front passenger seat with a multi-function unit, the manufacturer claims. This concept – that has been revealed at the Shanghai Auto Show – best suits chauffeur driven executives. Its purpose is to help tycoons either relax or work between meetings.
The Lounge Console incorporates a table that opens to reveal an illuminated vanity mirror. It houses a thin storage tray for jewellery, personal accessories and make-up. The table rotates 90 degrees and slides forward to reveal a 17" screen "for a full in-car theatre experience", Volvo says. Below the cushioned leg rest is an area to store shoes. This complements the lockable storage box. Removing the front passenger seat also provides the executive with an unhindered view of the road via the windscreen.
The Volvo Lounge Console is not likely to be brought to market in the near future (to the best of our knowledge). Unconventional features have a habit of appearing at motor shows, after all. Its purpose – beyond the manufacturer's stated objectives – is to seek publicity, get people talking and test the market. If millions of motorists scream that they must have it, the manufacturer will quickly oblige. However, the market for such a system is small and those that can afford a chauffeur might already own a Rolls-Royce.

ACES Academic Programs
Nematology Lab
Our program focuses on plant-parasitic nematodes, which are persistent and often serious pathogens of many New Mexico crops. The most economically-damaging nematode in the state is the southern root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita. It is widely distributed and, without proper management, can result in yield losses that exceed 40% in chile and 25% in cotton and many other annual crops. Other root-knot nematodes, including M. chitwoodi and M. partityla are less widely distributed but serious pests of potato and pecan. The northern root-knot nematode, M. hapla, can damage peanut, chile, and bean crops in eastern NM. In addition to crop damage, the presence of some of these nematodes results in regulatory restrictions on the shipment of NM produce. Historically, nematodes have been managed with pesticides, but the availability of such materials to producers in NM and elsewhere have dwindled by 80% in recent years due to environmental concerns. As the expense of pesticide-based management has increased, so has the level of nematode damage to many crops.
Our program addresses a broad range of topics and strives to: determine how plant-parasitic nematodes interact with other pests and pathogens such as annual and perennial weeds and Verticillium dahliae; help develop sustainable management alternatives for pest complexes; enhance the efficacy of existing management options; determine relationships among various nematode trophic groups and soil and plant health; evaluate the host status of important Southwestern ornamental plants; educate the agricultural community and homeowners regarding ways to manage existing nematode pathogens and avoid introducing new ones. Most of our research is interdisciplinary and collaborative.

Student Spotlight – Leela Thomas: A Promise Kept
by Adele Williams, Student Contributor
Leela Thomas
As a non-traditional student, Leela Thomas brings more life experience to Alice Lloyd College's leadership program than most other students. Leela, of Hindman, Kentucky, is a senior majoring in History with a minor in English. She graduated from Knott County Central High School in 2001 and attended college directly afterwards at a large public university. When she found that this school wasn't suited to her, she returned to her hometown and attended a local school.
After a short stint at Hazard Community & Technical College, she gave up on her education and focused on a job in the healthcare field. The job afforded her the ability to provide for herself, but when she tragically lost her mother to cancer, she made a promise to better herself for the sake of her future.
"I promised her that I would go back to school and get a degree," Leela said. "I wanted to make her proud of me, and the thought of her not being proud scares me to death."
In the absence of her mother, Leela finds the most support from her brother and sister and their families, with her friends coming in at a close second. While she said that almost all of the faculty and staff have supported her, Leela's number one supporter on campus has been her work-study supervisor, Tammi Hall.
"Tammi is the best person I know," she said. "She pushes me to be my best. She's my 'Momma Tam,' and I wouldn't trade her for the world. I love her."
Knowing how supportive and loving the ALC family is was a major factor in Leela deciding to attend Alice Lloyd. Being from Knott County and having practically grown up on the ALC campus, she felt comfortable at the College and already knew most of the faculty and staff. While there were many features that swayed Leela to come to ALC, the deciding factor was the cost.
"I'm going at this alone financially," she said, "and I knew the education I could receive at ALC was just as good, if not better, than anywhere else, and cheaper too."
Leela continued, "I sacrificed everything – my apartment, my job, my car, and even the independence of coming and going when I wanted to, but I know it was all worth it. I'm proud to know that my niece and nephews can see that I didn't let anything stand in my way and that I have been successful in my endeavors. I hope they see what I've done, and can say, 'I want to do what sissy did.'"
Leela plans to work for the Social Security Administration or to get a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) so that she can eventually teach History on the collegiate level. She hopes to stay close to home, and even mentioned possibly working at ALC one day, saying, "I'd love to get a job here after graduation. I love the people and the beautiful mountains."
Leela has paved the way for students who may not have otherwise attempted to obtain their education because they are older or worried about the cost.
"I'm proof that you can do it," she said. "I never thought that I would be here, but if you set goals and do whatever it takes to accomplish them, you will make it."
She adds, "My brother-in-law once told me, 'You're going to be thirty one day. You can be thirty with a degree or thirty without a degree, but regardless you will be thirty.' I'm proud to say that I will be thirty and that I'll have my degree."
