<div style="text-align: justify;">
While some may say vanity is not a masculine trait at all, men would be very hard pressed not to be concerned about their hair or lack of it. Male pattern baldness is perhaps the singularly most divisive phenomenon the human body can throw up at you without actually making you sick, but, though it may appear to be overtly benign, male pattern baldness is still potent enough to keep men up at night, affecting, according to figures, nearly half of all men under 50 with nearly 80 percent of all men having some degrees of hair loss by the age of 80.<br />
<br />
The exact causes for this natural phenomenon has often eluded scientists and researchers and while a multi-billion dollar industry may have sprouted to try, in whatever way to tackle this, hair piece or Rogaine have not been enough and all but a miracle cure is needed.<br />
Well, according to a new study, published in the journal, Science Translational Medicine, scientists may have finally found the reason behind baldness that has so long eluded the scientific community.
<br />
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania said that they had finally "pinpointed" the protein that triggers hair loss. It has been known for a while that testosterone plays an important role in hair loss and the decrease in this male sex hormone reduces the size of hair follicles to the point that they become almost invisible, completely inhibiting regrowth. But, now, according to the University of Pennsylvania team, it has been discovered that a protein is found to ‘trigger’ hair loss and that it is apparently entirely responsible for thinning of hair and hair loss. <br />
<br />
The protein, prostaglandin D synthase, was noted to be present in high levels in hair follicles in bald patches but absent in areas of hair. The Pennsylvania team used mice for their experiments and in them, they saw that when bred to have high levels of the protein, the mice were completely bald and also experienced less growth of transplanted healthy human hair.
<br />
<br />
Speaking about this discovery, lead researcher Prof. George Cotsarelis, of the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Dermatology, said, "Essentially we showed that prostaglandin protein was elevated in the bald scalp of men and that it inhibited hair growth. So we identified a target for treating male-pattern baldness. The next step would be to screen for compounds that affect this receptor and to also find out whether blocking that receptor would reverse balding or just prevent balding - a question that would take a while to figure out." <br />
<br />
With this discovery, it has come to the knowledge that several drugs, some under clinical trials, specifically target this protein and it is hoped that with it baldness may be prevented or cured.</div>

As the thrill in two countries reached fever pitch and the tension rose to near-paralysing levels, Team India turned for inspiration to the man who has never seen defeat in a <a href="http://achorn.blogspot.com/2011/03/india-vs-pakistan-odds-favour-india.html">World Cup game</a> against Pakistan for close to two decades now.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
On the eve of the semifinal in Mohali, India’s mental conditioning coach Paddy Upton took the back seat, and the task of delivering the team talk fell on Sachin Tendulkar.<br />
The veteran of six World Cups during which India have got the better of Pakistan in four games probably sensed it would be counterproductive to dwell for too long on the obvious significance of the match ahead.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiokf6MY-7BwvF1M8DgjNadZ9yD88ewVnRSXHnt3An9G8gc3s_3aG0bWH3MNBsQ29X7MC4NJRR2EeAnSoTTEfNkBE9EcCDREtDM_bq0R4HfFZlhZUl8ftkG466iTYKgWHjrcCf3LOnr8o4/s1600/Indvspak.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiokf6MY-7BwvF1M8DgjNadZ9yD88ewVnRSXHnt3An9G8gc3s_3aG0bWH3MNBsQ29X7MC4NJRR2EeAnSoTTEfNkBE9EcCDREtDM_bq0R4HfFZlhZUl8ftkG466iTYKgWHjrcCf3LOnr8o4/s400/Indvspak.jpg" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589742015148828610" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 222px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
Sources close to the team said Sachin Tendulkar’s talk was short but very effective. He essentially asked the boys to be calm and to stick to their natural game.
<br />
<br />
“He went back to the 2003 group game at Centurion. He spoke about how he had refused to fall into the short ball trap that the Pakistani quicks Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Shoaib Akhtar had laid for him, and instead played his natural game,” said a source. Sachin Tendulkar smashed 98 off 75 balls as India chased down Pakistan’s 273 with six wickets and over four overs to spare.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Humanity needs to be much better prepared for massive solar storms, which can wreak havoc on our technology-dependent society, a prominent researcher warns.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGiF2NcTJwuObooc__kiIxI_P4EV7GSF8CTGiJRatenG1omoeA_ifsX6g99m2Gm0UhTmMaZn2viMCDjNGIK1GHrRrMfGRKCOuZaGmL75X72Kx9wOYHZdpg1ZaF6gdtA4y9e3SGGgaXVfo/s1600/amazing+solar+flare.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGiF2NcTJwuObooc__kiIxI_P4EV7GSF8CTGiJRatenG1omoeA_ifsX6g99m2Gm0UhTmMaZn2viMCDjNGIK1GHrRrMfGRKCOuZaGmL75X72Kx9wOYHZdpg1ZaF6gdtA4y9e3SGGgaXVfo/s640/amazing+solar+flare.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Powerful blasts from the sun have triggered intense geomagnetic storms on Earth before, and they'll do so again. But at the moment our ability to predict these events and guard against their worst consequences - which can include interruptions of power grids and satellite navigation systems - is lacking, says Mike Hapgood of the British research and technology agency RAL Space.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We need a much better understanding of the likelihood of space weather disruptions and their impacts, and we need to develop that knowledge quickly," Hapgood, head of RAL Space's space environment group, writes in a commentary in the April 19 issue of the journal Nature.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Potentially devastating storms</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The solar storms we need to worry about, Hapgood says, are coronal mass ejections, huge clouds of charged solar plasma that can rocket into space at speeds of 3 million mph (5 million kilometers per hour) or more.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
CMEs that hit Earth inject large amounts of energy into the planet's magnetic field, spawning potentially devastating geomagnetic storms that can disrupt GPS signals, radio communications and power grids for days.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The world witnessed such effects not too long ago. In March 1989, a CME caused a power blackout in Quebec, leaving 5 million Canadians in the dark in cold weather for hours. The event caused about $2 billion in damages and lost business, Hapgood writes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But CMEs are capable of much greater mischief. A huge ejection - now known as the Carrington event, after a British astronomer - slammed into Earth in 1859, setting off fires in telegraph offices. The world was not technologically advanced enough yet to suffer worse consequences, Hapgood noted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"If we had a repeat of the Carrington event, I would expect several days of economic and social mayhem as many critical technological systems failed - e.g., localized power grid failures in many countries, widespread loss of GPS signals for navigation and timing, disruption of communications systems, shutdown of long-haul aviation," Hapgood told SPACE.com via email.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And the short-term problems caused by such a storm could pale in comparison with its long-term impact, he added.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"What scares me is the possibility that this recovery could take a long time in many parts of the world," Hapgood said. "Over the past few decades, we have become much more dependent on technology to sustain our everyday lives: e.g., electricity to pump clean water to our homes and remove sewage, just-in-time supply chains to feed us, ATMs and retail card readers to provide money for everyday shopping. Do we know how to recover quickly from the simultaneous disruption of a huge range of systems?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Improving predictions</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Despite a growing sense of concern among scientists - and decision-makers in politics and industry - our technology-dependent society remains vulnerable to a big CME-spawned geomagnetic storm, Hapgood says. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For starters, our forecasting ability, while improving, is still lacking. The United States' Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) can currently provide warnings of strong geomagnetic storms 10 to 60 minutes in advance with about 50 percent accuracy, Hapgood writes. That's a pretty small window for power companies to take protective measures.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SWPC scientists and other space-weather forecasters generally rely on observtions of approaching CMEs made by a handful of spacecraft. These include NASA's Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) and Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) probes, as well as the NASA/European Space Agency Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
ACE launched in 1997, SOHO in 1995 and the twin STEREO craft in 2006. It's time for an upgrade, Hapgood told SPACE.com.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We really need to replace those spacecraft and their instruments that monitor CMEs and, if possible, upgrade the instruments so they are optimized for space weather monitoring – essentially to pull out the most critical data and get it back to Earth as soon as possible," he said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Preparing for the worst</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 1989 event spurred some power companies to require that all new transformers be able to withstand storms of similar magnitude.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But Hapgood thinks power, aviation and other vulnerable industries - including finance, which depends on precise GPS time stamps for automatic trading - should take a longer view and guard against the huge storm that comes along just once every 1,000 years or so.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That's tough to do, since researchers don't know what a thousand-year storm might look like; data on such dramatic events are pretty hard to come by. But Hapgood says scientists could get a better idea by analyzing more data, including observations from a century or more ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Much of this historical information exists on paper only. Digitizing it would bring these records to the attention of many more researchers, Hapgood says, and he suggests enlisting citizen scientists to do the job on the Internet, much as the Galaxy Zoo project asks volunteers to classify galaxies online by the galaxies' shapes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Researchers also need to develop better physics-based models to improve their understanding of extreme space weather, Hapgood says. And he suggests that studying storms on other, sunlike stars could be helpful, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In general, Hapgood is calling for powerful geomagnetic storms to be regarded as natural hazards similar to big earthquakes and volcanic eruptions: infrequent, potentially devastating events.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"These events often transcend the experience of any individual because they happen so rarely. Thus there is an all-too-human tendency to ignore them - that they lie outside the awareness of the decision-maker and probably will not occur during his term of office," Hapgood said. "But these events will happen sometime. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We need to understand them and decide how far we should (i.e., can afford to) protect against them - and definitely not leave them until it's too late. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sometimes, a first-time singer just needs a bit of self-confidence to conquer the stage.<br />
<br />
But then there was amateur entertainer Jeremy Love: lacking not just self-confidence, but musical competency to boot. Love was the sort of misfit performer who only could have found an audience at Abilene’s curiously named Tony Barker & Meatball Acoustic Jam.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2VMznxQV321SDr6vglE45PILi3RORw1gCwoSWDjYftSsBVbwWupPzcJ7AphRs6oD7USPfdAmIn3HXlyn8UINMRImxuYbqEYxci-2VNwOJjNqXqiwnvCJlxhCPVamVBmJsDLOAh0Fv2ys/s1600/japan+tsunami.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2VMznxQV321SDr6vglE45PILi3RORw1gCwoSWDjYftSsBVbwWupPzcJ7AphRs6oD7USPfdAmIn3HXlyn8UINMRImxuYbqEYxci-2VNwOJjNqXqiwnvCJlxhCPVamVBmJsDLOAh0Fv2ys/s400/japan+tsunami.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Founded 10 years ago by local musicians Barker and Benny “Meatball” Bartek, the weekly Thursday night jam started as an informal way to get Abilene’s fledgling singers and songwriters up on stage and in front of an audience. No snobbery, no judgment, no stress — just a bunch of players banging out material in a friendly atmosphere.<br />
<br />
Love hopped aboard soon after the event’s birth, and immediately put Barker and Bartek’s altruistic principles to the test. Every time he took the stage, the audience would collectively brace itself for an onslaught of flubbed guitar notes, off-key singing and forgotten lyrics.<br />
<br />
“Every week for five years, I sucked it up,” Love said, in his typically self-effacing manner. “There were some people who would rather listen to endless karaoke than me.”<br />
<br />
So while it pained Bartek to bring down the hammer on such a fragile ego, he pulled Love aside to deliver an ultimatum: either he would shape up within a month or he was barred from the stage. For a musical event founded on a laid-back, “live and let live” philosophy, this was unprecedented.<br />
<br />
But a funny thing happened after Bartek deployed the nuclear option: Love finally started taking his playing seriously. It wasn’t just enough to want to entertain, he realized. He had to work to make people want to listen.<br />
<br />
So Love got down to rehearsal — serious rehearsal, playing through songs again and again until his fingers were sore. Unexpectedly, he started coming up with his own material for the first time during these sessions, some five or six songs that burst out of him one after the next. Two or three of those songs actually turned out to be pretty good.<br />
<br />
Bit by bit, he gained confidence on the stage and off. Normally a strict wallflower, Love began to mix and mingle with the crowds at each of the shows. In so doing, he wound up meeting his future wife. With the help and encouragement of his fellow musicians, he became a solid member of the weekly stage show.<br />
<br />
Of course, Love is still just a chubby guy with a guitar. Barker and Bartek’s jams haven’t transformed him into Bruce Springsteen or anything. But still, they’ve given him an artistic outlet and a new bounce to his stride — and he’s not the only one.<br />
<br />
Over those 10 years, an entire generation of Abilene musicians has come up through the weekly jam sessions. And last Thursday, that generation reconvened to celebrate.<br />
<br />
<b>Reunion</b><br />
<br />
The Barker & Meatball Acoustic Jam currently calls Strawberry’s Bar on South 7th Street its home. The building’s pale, unadorned brick exterior suggests some sort of hidden dive bar seediness, but the room inside has the air of a casual sports bar.<br />
<br />
Last Thursday, the jam took over for its semiofficial 10th anniversary party. The packed bar felt like a high school reunion, with gray-haired guys grabbing each other every few paces for hugs and handshakes. Balloons drifted through the air while bands and solo performers took the stage.<br />
<br />
Darting around the room were Barker and Bartek, who collectively serve as the night’s talent bookers, technical crew, emcees, guest musicians and hype men. Several times throughout the night, it was Bartek’s hands that sparked the crowd into collective, rhythmic clapping to accompany performances.<br />
<br />
Bartek, much like his nickname, brings an unconventional approach to music promotion. On the jam’s first night 10 years back, Bartek focused on recruiting a big crowd but barely bothered with tracking down actual musicians to provide entertainment. Barker, who was already wary about associating himself with a man named “Meatball,” questioned that approach.<br />
<br />
“I told him, ‘Hey! Let’s use our brains, let’s do it differently,’ ” Bartek said. “Musicians have got to have a reason to play. They’ve got to have a crowd first, and then they’ll come.”<br />
<br />
From there, the event grew and blossomed due to Abilene’s unique musical culture, Barker says.<br />
<br />
“What distinguishes us, and what towns like Austin should be envious of, is that we have a very supportive group of local bands,” Barker said. “People borrow things from each other and support each other. I’ve never been part of a scene like the one in this community, and believe me, I’ve seen a lot of communities.”<br />
<br />
The night’s performers include mail carriers, cops, oil field workers and more. Then there are out-and-out characters like Jackie Johnson, a white-bearded country singer who always arrives dressed in full cowboy get-up. An active part of the Nashville music scene in the 1970s, the Anson native is now semiretired, but continues to sling his guitar to supplement his Social Security checks.<br />
<br />
His business card has the word “WANTED” written across the top in an Old West typescript.<br />
<br />
“A gypsy once told me that I was going to lead an interesting life,” the 67-year-old Johnson said with a wily smile. “Well, it’s been more interesting than you can imagine.”<br />
<br />
<b>Sharing the spotlight</b><br />
<br />
Nearly every musician in the room got his or her start via the Thursday night jam sessions, gaining their first performance time and forming bands through connections made in the audience. Since most of these performers play competing bar shows on the weekends, Thursday is their designated hangout time.<br />
<br />
Ric Rogers and his band Three Shades Blue arrived in Abilene in 2003 as outsiders from Fort Worth, but soon found themselves embraced by the Barker and Meatball crowd.<br />
<br />
“The only reason we’re known in the Abilene music scene is hanging out at these acoustic jams,” Rogers said. “And most of the musicians here will tell you the same.”<br />
<br />
Clyde-based performer Eric Logan credits the jam’s founding duo with creating an incubator for Abilene talent and then having the foresight to step aside. While Barker and Bartek’s and names and fingerprints are all over the event, they act more as facilitators than the stars of the show. Bartek will always play the first set of the night, but only to kill time until someone else is ready to go.<br />
<br />
The actual onstage performances can be a bit rough, but the night’s importance goes beyond mere entertainment.<br />
<br />
“It might not be the most stellar performance ever, but it’s a place to gain confidence,” Logan said. “For (Barker and Bartek), it wasn’t about the money or the sheer numbers. It was about harnessing the musical talent that Abilene has. ... It wasn’t their time to shine. The thought was, ‘Let’s put the spotlight on other people.’ Abilene owes them for putting up with us all for a decade.”<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
India
issued a tsunami warning for Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the
eastern coast on Wednesday after a 8.7 magnitude quake in Indonesia
shook major cities, causing panic and sending people fleeing onto the
streets.<br />
<br />
The Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Service issued a red<br />
high-level warning for the islands, and also put out lower alerts for the coasts of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.<br />
<br />
India's
tsunami warning center said waves measuring up to 6 metres were
expected along parts of its eastern coast, which was heavily hit by the
2004 tsunami. Smaller waves were expected to hit the remote Andaman and
Nicobar islands.<br />
<br />
The US Geological Survey said the
quake was centred 33 kilometres beneath the ocean floor around 495
kilometres from the provincial capital of Banda Aceh. <br />
<br />
Said,
an official at Indonesia's Meteorology and Geophysics Agency who goes
by only one name, said a tsunami warning has been issued.<br />
<br />
Indonesia straddles a series of fault lines that makes the vast island nation prone to volcanic and seismic activity.<br />
<br />
giant 9.1-magnitude quake off the country on December 26, 2004,
triggered a tsunami in the Indian Ocean that killed 230,000 people,

Cricket united in grief as Australian batsman passes away following blow to the head<br />
<br />
The cricket community worldwide is in mourning today following the death of Phillip Joel Hughes, aged 25.<br />
<br />
Cricket Australia announced the news with a statement from team doctor Peter Brukner.<br />
<br />
"It is my sad duty to inform you that a short time ago Phillip Hughes passed away," Dr Brukner's statement read. "He never regained consciousness following his injury on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
"He was not in pain before he passed and was surrounded by his family and close friends."<br />
<br />
Australia captain Michael Clarke, who was commended for his efforts in supporting the Hughes family since Tuesday's incident, read out a brief statement on behalf of parents Greg and Virginia and siblings Jason and Megan Hughes.<br />
<br />
"We're devastated by loss of our much-loved son and brother Phillip," Clarke read.<br />
<br />
"It's been very a difficult few days and we appreciate all the support we have received from family, friends, players, Cricket Australia and the general public.<br />
<br />
"Cricket was Phillip's life and we as family share that love of game with him.<br />
<br />
"We would like to thank all medical and nursing staff at St Vincent's Hospital and Cricket NSW medical staff for their great efforts with Phillip.<br />
<br />
"We love you."<br />
<br />
Clarke bowed his head momentarily to compose himself before exiting.<br />
<br />
Hughes was struck on the head while batting for South Australia during a Sheffield Shield game at the SCG on Tuesday, and underwent emergency surgery shortly after being rushed to St Vincent's Hospital in Sydney.<br />
<br />
He had since been in an induced coma in the hospital’s intensive care unit.<br />
<br />
Australia captain Michael Clarke, a long-time teammate and friend, was among the many from within Australian cricket to visit Hughes and his family at the hospital, offering support and well wishes.<br />
<br />
The Australian team was due to assemble in Brisbane this weekend for next Thursday's first Test against India. Instead players from around the country flew into Sydney as the cricket family drew strength from the company of one another.<br />
<br />
Hughes, who hailed from Macksville on the New South Wales mid north coast, was struck by a ball below the helmet while attempting to play a hook shot to a short-pitched delivery at 2.23pm Tuesday, the opening day of his team's match against NSW.<br />
<br />
He was 63 not out at the time and pushing his case for a recall to the Australian Test team. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
An AirAsia plane with 162 people aboard went missing en route from
Indonesia to Singapore on Sunday morning shortly after the pilots
requested a change of flight plan because of weather, the third major
aviation incident this year involving a Malaysian carrier.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
AirAsia Flight QZ8501 with 155 people on board -- including one
British, one Malaysian, one Singaporean, three Koreans, -- and seven
crew members lost contact with air traffic control at 07.24 am local
time Indonesia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sixteen children and one infant were among the passengers on board
the AirAsia Airbus A320-200 that went missing on the flight from
Surabaya, Indonesia, to Singapore.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At a press conference this morning, Indonesian officials said the
plane was several hours past the time when its fuel would have been
exhausted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There were unconfirmed media reports that a aircraft crashed in the waters of East Belitung, off the east coast of Sumatra.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The exact location of the crash site has not been identified, media reports said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The aircraft was in the Indonesian flight information region, more
than 200 nm southeast of the Singapore -- Jakarta FIR boundary, when
contact was lost, civil aviation authority of Singapore said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Contact with the plane was lost 42 minutes after takeoff. There were no Indian nationals on board.</div>

"At the present time we unfortunately have no further information
regarding the status of the passengers and crew members on board, but we
will keep all parties informed as more information becomes available,"
the Malaysia-based carrier said in a statement.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The aircraft was an Airbus A320-200 with the registration number PK-AXC.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"At this time, search and rescue operations are in progress and

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Indonesian Transport Ministry official Hadi Mustofa said the plane
had asked for an unusual route before it lost contact, local media
reported.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Air Asia said the pilot had requested "deviation" from its flight plan because of bad weather.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"The aircraft... was requesting deviation due to en route weather," it said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Indonesia's national search and rescue agency bangka belitung said it
has dispatched one vessel to search for AirAsia flight QZ8501.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We received information from Basarnas in Jakarta that contact had
been lost with an AirAsia flight over Bangka Belitung waters...We then
dispatched a vessel with a search and rescue team of 22 members to check
the information," Febi Imam Saputra, an information official at
Basarnas Bangka Belitung, was quoted as saying by the Indonesian Antara
news agency.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"If we look at the map, these coordinates refer to an area around 20 nautical miles from East Belitung," said Febi.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Search and rescue operations have been activated by the Indonesian authorities from the Pangkal Pinang Search and Rescue office.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Indonesian authorities have mobilised search and rescue operation
near BelitungIsland, deploying five ships and a surveillance aircraft
carrying 15 Indonesian Air Force personnel.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore has confirmed that it is
linking up with Indonesian authorities to help locate the missing plane.
Australia and Malaysia have also offered assistance.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A massive search is underway for the missing plane. The last detected
position of the missing AirAsia Indonesia Flight QZ8501 is believed to
be between Tanjung Pandan on BelitungIsland and Kalimantan, Indonesia,
according to Indonesia's Director of Air Transport, Djoko Murjatmodjo.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"The position where contact was lost was between Tanjung Pandan and
Pontianak, about 100 nautical miles south-east of Tanjung Pandan," said
Djoko.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The pilot Captain Iriyanto has an experience of 6,100 flying hours.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes has asked his company to stay
strong. "Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. We must stay
strong," tweeted Fernandes, an ethnic Indian, who set up the budget
airlines which now flies to several countries.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fernandes has said that he is heading to Indonesia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Malaysia has also offered assistance in the search operation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
AirAsia is popular in the region as a budget carrier. It has about
100 destinations, with subsidiaries in several Asian countries.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The loss of contact with the AirAsia plane comes nearly 10 months
after the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which went
missing on March 8.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Searchers are yet to find any debris from Flight MH370, which officials believe crashed in the southern Indian Ocean.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another Malaysia Airlines plane MH17 was shot down over Ukraine in July, killing all 298 on board. </div>

"Everybody ran around in a panic and we ran up a hill."<br /><br />People in Banda Aceh screamed "God is great!" as they jumped into cars and onto the backs of motorcycles, clogging streets as they fled to high ground, according to the Associated Press.<br /><br />Coastal residents in Sri Lanka were told to move to higher ground. Thailand's National Disaster Warning Center issued an evacuation order to residents in six provinces along the country's west coast, including the popular tourist destinations of Phuket, Krabi and Phang-Nga. Thailand later canceled its tsunami warning.<br /><br />Indonesia sits atop a web of fault lines that makes the sprawling archipelago prone to volcanic and seismic activity. A giant 9.1-magnitude quake off the country on Dec. 26, 2004, triggered a tsunami in the Indian Ocean that killed 230,000 people, nearly three quarter of them in Aceh.<br /><br />Indonesia's government has improved its monitoring of earthquake data since then by positioning buoys to take sea-level readings and warn of potential tsunamis. Officials have noted the problem of getting timely information to people who live in remote areas of coastal Sumatra.<br /><br />Experts said the kind of devastation seen in the 2004 disaster and last year in Japan was caused by a particular type of earthquake. During Wednesday's quake, the tectonic plates were likely shifting sideways rather than up and down, leaving less of a chance for the giant waves, said Susanne Sergeant, a seismologist at the British Geological Survey.<br /><br />"The earthquake today was different from that in 2004 off Aceh and in Japan," last year, and less likely to create massive water displacement, she said. </div>

A tsunami-tossed boat tossed by giant waves lies atop a building in the city of Otsuchi in northern Japan on May 7, 2011.<br />
<br />
The day after the earthquake struck, Mayama was in the city of Yamato documenting the destruction when a woman approached him and led him to the mangled wreck of a car where her dead daughter was trapped.<br />
<br />
Despite the devastation around them and no help in sight, she and her husband couldn't leave, and she continued to brush the girl's hair with a comb. "I could see only the hair," Mayama said. "She said it's my daughter, it's my daughter." <br />
<br />
The woman explained that she had approached Mayama because she wanted him to take pictures to document their loss. "I've never forgotten that," Mayama said. <br />
<br />
One year later, Mayama said he is still searching for the woman so he can give her the photographs.</div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469577010156800908.post-1484419351933887482012-04-11T10:10:00.001-07:002015-06-22T00:21:17.928-07:00Japanese Students Not Hot on Study Abroad<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Study abroad isn’t just a luxury, these days it’s a rite of passage for
many students around the world. While more and more students in Asia and
the U.S. are venturing overseas, a recent survey shows that just 57.2%
of Japanese students, once the prototypical image of expat learners
during the bubble, are interested in an overseas academic experience.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The survey, published by the Japan Youth Research Institute, polled over 8,000 students from China, South Korea, Japan and the U.S. in 2011. Even though 58.1% of Japanese students had been abroad, they ranked lowest of the four countries in terms of interest in a study abroad experience. In comparison, 82.4% in South Korea and 62.5% in China and were interested.<br />
<br />
So why has enthusiasm waned in Japan? It’s not economic reasons, as only 19.5% of Japanese said that money was a barrier. And it’s not because they’ll miss home – only 10.3% said that was a consideration, compared with 30.4% of Chinese, 54.2% of Koreans and 58.1% of Americans.<br />
<br />
The biggest reason that Japanese students cited for not wanting to study abroad was that life in their home country was easier at 53.2%, followed by “language barrier” and “lack of confidence in living alone” with 48.1% and 42.7% respectively, three criteria that the other students also ranked highly.<br />
<br />
It could be due to apathy among Japanese boys. Some 20.4% of Japanese high school boys surveyed said they had no interest at all in study abroad, the highest of any of the countries surveyed. In comparison, 65.9% of Japanese girls said they were very or somewhat interested.<br />
<br />
The lukewarm enthusiasm for study abroad in Japan is not a surprise given other recent data. Up from a low in 1986 of only 14,297 students, the number of Japanese study abroad students has been declining since it hit a peak of 82,945 in 2004, according to the OECD. In recent years, their Asian counterparts seeking an academic experience abroad have surged, and 2.25 million Chinese studied abroad in 2011.<br />
<br />
The survey gives some indication of why this might be so when it breaks down the reasons that students do want to study abroad. While all of the 42.1% of Japanese students who wanted to study abroad said they one day wanted to work in an international setting, only 14.4% said going abroad would help them get a job. That’s much different from the goals of Chinese students, many of whom gave better academics abroad and better chances of being hired as incentives for leaving home.<br />
<br />
Most Japanese companies have fixed hiring schedules and only accept graduates immediately after they have left school. The rigid system could be a deterrent to Japanese students, compared with their Chinese, Korean and U.S. peers who don’t face such strict hiring practices and might be more flexible to study abroad while at university. </div>

A 6.3 earthquake has been registered early Saturday off Japan’s
northern coast by the US Geological Survey. The quake comes as the
world’s biggest super-typhoon this year, Vongfong, is striking the south
of the country.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaQ2UiGPXOCEstY7yqvOx2xNaWWKis4I29dFaqPxfdc1PuY2uu0_q6eQjhohgUQiVnv5SZoCckLD_KQSmt2DG6WZhFJU5eSK8TPehh9Eg7HHud03OG3ONMHlJ1YK6Dtydv9XbwsetfULg/s1600/japan2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaQ2UiGPXOCEstY7yqvOx2xNaWWKis4I29dFaqPxfdc1PuY2uu0_q6eQjhohgUQiVnv5SZoCckLD_KQSmt2DG6WZhFJU5eSK8TPehh9Eg7HHud03OG3ONMHlJ1YK6Dtydv9XbwsetfULg/s1600/japan2.jpg" height="358" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The tremor occurred at 02:36 GMT, the Japan Meteorological Agency
reported. There have been no reports of damage, casualties or a
tsunami alert.<br />
<br />
The epicenter of the quake was located 154 kilometers away from
the southeastern city of Hachinohe, in Japan’s southeast Aomori
Prefecture, at a depth of 13 kilometers.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaV6MhntZpyXBE2dZ_TFRbItwmK4qf8Stw8weDBSHoWIt9fqTUXQ1SowT8DwjzzCDISa4SalsbBBceA_G83Z3tG7K1FlRearDpUeY5ruohTYeG10l4YwTIcOxkEXPU4mkWduPq-YHy1Hg/s1600/map.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaV6MhntZpyXBE2dZ_TFRbItwmK4qf8Stw8weDBSHoWIt9fqTUXQ1SowT8DwjzzCDISa4SalsbBBceA_G83Z3tG7K1FlRearDpUeY5ruohTYeG10l4YwTIcOxkEXPU4mkWduPq-YHy1Hg/s1600/map.jpg" height="344" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The epicenter of the latest earthquake is situated relatively far
away, about 400 kilometers, from the Fukushima nuclear power
plant, which was severely damaged by an earthquake and a tsunami
in March 2011.
<br />
Officials from the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), operator
of the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant, reported a week ago that
the tsunami projectile height at Fukushima NPP has been raised
and that now it would take a 26-meter wave to damage the facility and
cause radioactive leakage.<br />
<br />

Last time the city of Hachinohe was struck with a quake was in
2011, when a 5.2 tremor struck off the eastern coast of Japan’s
Honshu Island on September 18. The epicenter of the earthquake
was located at a depth of 24.1 kilometers and in about the same
place, 147 kilometers east of the city of Hachinohe.
<br />
<br />
In the meantime super-typhoon Vongfong, the world’s biggest storm this
year, has reached Japan’s southern Okinawa prefecture, causing a
blackout in more than 17,000 households.
<br />
It is expected to head further to the north towards the Honshu
Island. On Tuesday it could reach the capital, Tokyo, bringing
with it pouring rain and gusts of wind exceeding 230 kilometers
an hour, creating waves up to 15 meters high.<br />
<br />

<br />
Another powerful typhoon, Phanfone, which struck Japan on Oct. 5,
and a day later left six people dead and four missing. The storm
left thousands of households without power, the cancelation of
more than 600 flights and the planned evacuation of 1.9 million
people in affected areas.

<div align="justify">
As with any season, summer can present particular challenges to maintaining your appearance. Here are a few tips to help keep you looking your best.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnkTpdpPIU3ukVNcoexPEt14ejroq8gszx8MoDlM0xclWOe9SZCOGVR2CSEz5Z4IAceOOTOboDc4AwDEywYIJ01s8y8i5zVx8AVaLFd_GDqhGJMoUEOPrqmBle3pMVDHmI1Q6nhY_Znyg/s1600/Summer-beauty.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Beauty Tips for Summer" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnkTpdpPIU3ukVNcoexPEt14ejroq8gszx8MoDlM0xclWOe9SZCOGVR2CSEz5Z4IAceOOTOboDc4AwDEywYIJ01s8y8i5zVx8AVaLFd_GDqhGJMoUEOPrqmBle3pMVDHmI1Q6nhY_Znyg/s400/Summer-beauty.jpg" height="299" title="Beauty Tips for Summer" width="400" /></a></div>
</div>
<h2 align="justify">
<b>Take Care of Your Hair</b></h2>
<div align="justify">
The high humidity of summer can really affect a hair style, but instead of fighting it, try embracing it. Wavy or curly styles are a great fit for the summer season. You can also keep frizz down with a variety of products.</div>
<div align="justify">
Saltwater can actually serve as a great styling tool because of its ability to give fine or thin hair more volume. Salt sticks to hair and gives it more texture. Just don’t overexpose it, as salt can eventually dry hair out.</div>
<div align="justify">
Colored hair, even if it’s just highlights, can change in the bright sun. Make sure to find a product that protects it. If you study to become a <a href="http://www.guidetocareereducation.com/degrees/beauty/cosmetology">cosmetologist</a> you can find out what kind of products work best.</div>
<div align="justify">
To keep your neck cool, tie you hair back with headbands, ponytails, or in a loose bun. All these styles look great for the summer.</div>
<br />
<h2 align="justify">
<b>Makeup Tips</b></h2>
<div align="justify">
During the summer, foundation can feel cakey and seem like it's melting off your face in the heat. Instead, try a tinted moisturizer, which is lighter while still covering flaws.</div>
<div align="justify">
For those that still want to use foundation, go for a shade darker than what you would normally wear in the winter. You can also find foundations with SPF as well.</div>
<div align="justify">
Warm weather can also be the cause of eyeshadow melting into the eyelid crease. Use a primer or an eyeshadow base which keeps your eye makeup from smudging.</div>
<br />
<h2 align="justify">
<b>Self Tanners</b></h2>
<div align="justify">
Bad self tanners are notorious for giving awful, streaky orange looks to skin. Thankfully there are a lot of great tanners to choose from these days. If you’re not sure about the tanner you have, test it out on a small area inside your elbow or the top of your foot. If it leaves an orangey color or causes you to break out, move on to another product.</div>
<br />
<h2 align="justify">
<b>Sunscreen</b></h2>
<div align="justify">
Most women are diligent when it comes to applying sunscreen to their face, but neglect the rest of their body. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen liberally to your neck, shoulders, chest, and hands. Also be sure to apply more than once a day; most sunscreens only last a few hours.</div>
<br />
<h2 align="justify">
<b>Bold Nail Polish</b></h2>
<div align="justify">
A bright, summery matching color for your nails is a great touch. Bright oranges and pinks are popular for this year. Also, take into account the color of your sandals when choosing a color.</div>

An earthquake measuring 8.7 on Richter scale hit Indonesia's Aceh province. Indonesia issues tsunami warning as powerful quake hits off west coast. The mild tremors were also felt in Indian cities of Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore and several other cities on the eastern coast.<br />
<br />
According to reports, India too has issued Tsunami warnings for Nicobar islands and east India following the earthquake. <br />
<br />
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center reportedly said it was not yet known whether a tsunami had been generated, but advised authorities to "take appropriate action".<br />
<br />
The region is regularly hit by earthquakes. The Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004 killed 170,000 people in Aceh.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the US Geological Survey, which documents quakes worldwide, reportedly said the Aceh quake was centred 33km (20 miles) under the sea about 495km from Banda Aceh.<br />
<br />
The tsunami centre's warning said quakes of such a magnitude "have the potential to generate a widespread destructive tsunami that can affect coastlines across the entire Indian Ocean basin".<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
OMG, it turns out that when u r texting, u r not being lazy, u r being creative.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The notion that text-messaging is eroding our language skills is a
myth, say researchers from three Canadian universities who have
collected and studied thousands of messages.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ0jTSkCJTcKfAZ1M4hszJcACmUW8tXh_xeqMvvk1IyI9SDS8RmH8yLBL0mpamxA1GJxEJYLiujR5KAEY9ofRmwy6B6uqcUYBfEU1GRuZWQpRgPqv98pA-J5h_tDCud4hNCmlba2ff05g/s1600/text-messaging.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ0jTSkCJTcKfAZ1M4hszJcACmUW8tXh_xeqMvvk1IyI9SDS8RmH8yLBL0mpamxA1GJxEJYLiujR5KAEY9ofRmwy6B6uqcUYBfEU1GRuZWQpRgPqv98pA-J5h_tDCud4hNCmlba2ff05g/s400/text-messaging.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The text4science project is a collaboration of Simon Fraser
University, Universite de Montreal and the University of Ottawa, as part
of a larger international project to understand how text-speak is
changing the way people communicate.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"In recent years, communication via SMS (text message) has become a
social phenomenon," the project website says. "Many scientific studies
(in linguistics, sociology, anthropology, psychology, communication,
etc.) have looked into this new medium, but their conclusions remain
partial and incomplete."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Researchers asked people to send in - via text, naturally - random
messages they'd saved on their phones, with the assurance that any
identifying information would be removed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They have received more than 8,000 since December.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"A lot of people think that language is degrading over time and it's
just getting worse, and young people just don't know how to spell
anymore," SFU professor Christian Guilbault said on News 1130. "Well, we
don't think it's true."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said the way we use language in texts proves how creative we are
and that we can use English in a very specific way appropriate to the
context.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For instance, the researchers found people used 10 different ways to
express laughter, including three variants of ``LOL,'' and 12 different
ways to text OK.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They are still accepting messages for their ongoing study. Find out more at text4science.ca. </div>

<span style="color: red;"><b>I would be grateful if you leave
a comment below to let me know if this guide was easy to follow and
worked successfully in particular if you have an OEM license – a system
where Windows came preinstalled by Dell or HP or other major vendors.
Please also comment on the model and if the system came with Windows 8.0
or Windows 8.1.</b></span><br />
<br />
<h2>
Download Windows 8.1 .iso</h2>
Microsoft have revised their downloader for Windows 8.1 with Update 1.<br />
Their new downloader allows for the selection of the version of
Windows 8.1, the language and the architecture so can be used on any
Windows system to prepare installation media which was requested here
and many pother places.<br />
To download Windows 8.1 go here:<br />
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wi<span id="goog_1634590542"></span><span id="goog_1634590543"></span>ndows-8/create-reset-refresh-media<br />
The direct link to the downloader is here:<br />
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=510815<br />
Double click the mediacreationtool<br />
<img alt="1" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5644" height="311" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/1.png?w=604&h=311" width="604" /><br />
Select Run<br />
<img alt="2" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5645" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/2.png?w=604" /><br />
The downloader will load displaying the Windows logo:<br />
<img alt="3" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5646" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/3.png?w=604" /><br />
You will asked for Language, Edition and Architecture:<br />
<img alt="4" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5647" height="472" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/4.png?w=604&h=472" width="604" /><br />
Microsoft offer a large assortment on languages as shown, pick your desired language.<br />
I’m going to select “proper English” i.e. “English – en-gb”:<br />
<img alt="5" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5648" height="547" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/5.png?w=604&h=547" width="604" /><br />
You will then be prompted for your Windows version – in this case I am going to select Windows 8.1:<br />
<img alt="6" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5649" height="474" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/6.png?w=604&h=474" width="604" /><br />
For the OEM license its important to note whether your product key is
Windows 8.1 Home (often denoted as just Windows 8.1) or Windows 8.1
Professional. If your system was sold with Windows 8.1 or Windows 8.1
Professional stickers like these should be affixed at the top or base of
the system stating the version of Windows.<br />
<img alt="Cora" src="http://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/cora.png?w=72&h=100" height="100" width="72" /><img alt="Professional" src="http://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/professional.png?w=72&h=100" height="100" width="72" /><br />
Then you will be prompted for your architecture. I’m going to select
the 64 Bit version, in most cases the 64 Bit version should be selected.
The 32 Bit version should only be used for legacy applications and on
new hardware this is better done in a Virtual Machine.<br />
<img alt="7" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5650" height="474" src="https://philipyip.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/7.png?w=604&h=474" width="604" /><br />

Retractable banner stands have many features including
Portability, protection of the banner graphic, ease of use and affordability.
Often used in environments such as trade shows, restaurants, retail stores,
Fundraisers, sporting events, presentations and educational institutions.
Retractable banner stands provide many advantages in any marketing or
promotional environment:<br />
<h3>
1) Ease of Use</h3>
Retractable banner stands take only seconds to set up and take down, simply pull
the banner out of the base (much like a window shade) and attach to the support
pole, no assistance required! Retractable banner stands make a great alternative
to the larger booth display when space is limited.<br />
<h3>
2) Flexibility/Versatility</h3>
Use the banner stands over and over by keeping the stand (hardware) and
replacing the graphic. This saves money over time and allows interchangeable
banners for seasonal promotions, updated marketing material or multiple trade
shows throughout the year.<br />
<h3>
3) Portability</h3>
Retractable banner stands are a superior display stand. The graphic banner
Retracts into a compact aluminum base, improving transportation tremendously.
Once retracted and placed into the nylon padded traveling case, the stand can
fit into the trunk of your car. They can be stored and transported in situations
that bulky traditional banner stands can’t.<br />
<h3>
4) Effective/Reliable</h3>
Banner
stand displays are very valuable and reliable when properly designed to
display your message and attract potential customers to view your services or
products at trade shows or retail environments.<br />
<h3>
5) Protection</h3>
Once the graphic banner is rolled into the aluminum base and placed into the
padded nylon carrying case, the banner is protected from physical damage during
transportation and environmental factors such as dust or fading.<br />
<h3>
6) Customization</h3>
The experienced graphic designers at
bcreative solutions will
produce a banner stand to the required specifications that will promote your
company’s message. Capture the attention of potential customers with an
impacting visual graphic.<br />
<h3>
7) Affordability</h3>
bcreative offers three different retractable banner stand options, the Lite,
Standard and Deluxe to suit your specific price range. Each banner stand
provides excellent value for displaying your product or service to customers.<br />
Retractable banner stands are a cost effective way to deliver your intended
message with impact. For a larger scale promotional aid check out our
Benefits
of Trade Show Pop Up Booth Displays blog for the benefits of our 8-foot,
10-foot and custom size trade show booths. Next time you are in need of a visual
promotional tool, give bcreative solutions a call for all your design and
marketing solutions.<br />

<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
Rohit Sharma's first ODI in 10-weeks began with a touch of nerves. He
was even kept scoreless in one Angelo Mathews maiden. By the end of the
innings, there was no shot he had not played. No part of the ground he
had not exploited. No bowler who escaped his brutality. Rohit amassed 45
more runs than any ODI batsman had ever managed in an innings,
finishing on 264 from 173 balls when he was finally caught off the last
ball of the innings. India, almost incidentally, had moved to 404 for 5,
despite having traveled at a run rate of less than six for the first 32
overs. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKn54oOlSI1730OcUMdaTmeAC6oczHauB01a2yppeg-UuCPAdVRD_TuVBrrLVZL4sQ8PbJeycsHzOE4OZN34T2K4mL1i__Vry593NGjeAku0Fbmw7nc5fbrV3UW-6DowWqZwg5pcPk98c/s1600/Rohit+Sharma.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="273" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKn54oOlSI1730OcUMdaTmeAC6oczHauB01a2yppeg-UuCPAdVRD_TuVBrrLVZL4sQ8PbJeycsHzOE4OZN34T2K4mL1i__Vry593NGjeAku0Fbmw7nc5fbrV3UW-6DowWqZwg5pcPk98c/s320/Rohit+Sharma.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
Rohit's innings was so outrageous that the first 100 runs, which were
hit at a run-a-ball, seem achingly humdrum in comparison to the 164 that
followed. The surge had actually begun before he reached his century,
when he plundered 14 runs in four balls, in Nuwan Kulasekara's 30th
over. Soon after that, the ball would be leaping off the middle of his
bat with almost every stroke he offered. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
There were many incredible shots, from among his 33 fours and nine
sixes, but the most gobsmacking was the six off Kulasekara at the end of
the 48th over, when he walked across to off stump, took a half volley
from about a foot and half away from him and flicked it high over the
midwicket boundary. It was the kind of shot, and innings, that seemed in
open defiance of physics. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
Sri Lanka had played a tour match against Mumbai to warm-up for the
series, but little did they know Rohit was warming-up against them. He
hit 142 from 111 in that match - his first competitive game since
fracturing a finger in August - and he has now re-embedded himself at
the top of the India batting order in the most resounding fashion
imaginable. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
The most dispiriting aspect of the flogging for Sri Lanka was their
complicity in it. Shaminda Eranga had extracted a thick outside edge
from Rohit in the fifth over, and though the ball carried comfortably to
Thisara Perera at third man, he shelled the chance. Having been dropped
on four, Rohit would become the third India centurion this series, to
have been reprieved early in his innings. It makes sense, then, that
since he hit a double-century, he should be dropped twice. Seekkuge
Prasanna obliged him, when he shelled another straightforward chance off
Rohit in the 46th over, with the batsman on 201 this time. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
Nuwan Kulasekara had strayed too straight to Rahane, in particular, who
picked him off for a spate of legside fours to kick the India innings
into gear, in a 14-run first over. Angelo Mathews and Eranga delivered
more disciplined new-ball spells, claiming a wicket each inside the
first 15 overs, but that is as good as the visitors' bowling effort got.
Sri Lanka's lines and lengths worsened gradually from the 20th over
onwards, until they had become almost farcically bad by the 35th. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
Another beautifully orchestrated batting Powerplay from India - between
the 29th and 34th overs - brought them 67 runs, and was enough to hammer
the Sri Lanka bowlers off their rhythm for the rest of the innings.
Short, wide deliveries, thigh-high full tosses and rank long hops were
presented with alarming regularity, and the fielding was almost as
woeful. Sri Lanka had not expected to begin the series strongly, given
their lack of preparation, but in these two disciplines, they have
actually worsened significantly through the tour. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
Having been joined at 59 for 2, Kohli and Rohit put on 202 brisk runs
together, before miscommunication between the wickets saw Kohli run out
for 66. That wasn't even the most astounding partnership of the India
innings. When Rohit and Robin Uthappa came together in the 41st over,
the score was 276 for 4. They would put on 128 runs in 58 balls
together. Out of that, Uthappa's contribution was a run-a-ball 16. </div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="news-body" style="text-align: justify;">
By the time Rohit hit Kulasekara down Mahela Jayawardene's throat at
long off, the record for most fours struck in an innings had also
tumbled, and Rohit was in possession of half the ODI scores over 200.
One record he missed out on by one delivery, was Sunil Gavaskar's record
for most balls faced. Gavaskar had made 36 not out.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Selling the ever classic <a href="http://www.swiss-wrist.com/dlc-pvd-models">black rolex</a> is no different from any other Rolex, but I will admit that it is a personal favorite of mine. There is just something about an all-black watch that I love so much. It goes with every piece of clothing that I own! All black rolex watches are all the rage and one of the best models in that category include the pro hunter rolex. If you are wondering how exactly you should approach the business, keep reading. Although it isn't quite brain surgery, selling such expensive and high quality items can often be troublesome. When selling either these Pro Hunter Rolex watches, or any other Rolex, it can be quite difficult getting the whole process in order. There is a lot of thought that needs to go into preparing both yourself and your customers for the whole ordeal. It wouldn't be so difficult if there weren't any scammers out there attempting and successfully selling fake Rolex watches, but since that isn't the case it is imperative that you calm the consumers anxiety and put them at ease. Rolex watches, which are very high-end and high quality, require a lot of though and it is important that you understand how important the whole deal is. Customers and interested consumers will be trusting you with very large amounts of money, and they want to make sure that they are getting what they paid for, which are legitimate Rolex watches. Don't be put off when you receieve doubt about the legitimacy of your Rolex watches. This is common, and for a very good reason. People need to be concerned and watchful of where they spend their hard earned money and make sure that the sellers that they are dealing with are looking out for their best interest. Make sure that you have the correct documents in order, including the original receipt and make copies of all other paperwork including model number. If that doesn't satisfy them, than go the extra mile and get a personal signature from an official at Rolex stating that your specific watch is indeed a true Rolex. After doing all these things, also make sure to take great pictures as well. Good pictures can often be the deciding factor in a deal. People want to really see the product, get high definition close-ups and really fall in love with the product. Get some great pictures and put up a fantastic sounding advertisement to attract the right kind of buyers. Whenever my friends have extra money and don't know what to buy, I say to them that they should make a smart investment and get a Rolex. It will only get better with time (sorry for the pun). If you are one of those people that really likes all their clothing and accessories to match, I highly suggest purchasing a black Rolex. It will go with every outfit and make your time getting ready in the morning go by much faster. You will get tons of compliments on it as well!</div>
