 ambience. Enviable attributes for one so miniscule as Saputara. But then that's what makes this sole representative of hill resorts in Gujarat such a favourite among the lovers of beauty.
Sitting Comfortably at 3000 feet above sea lavel, Saputara's domain cirumscribes eye - soothing vales n dales Sprinkled with aesthete landscapes. the climate too is oh-so -right! Cool summers, breezy monsoons and skittish winters, " Come, indulge into the treasures and pleasures of Nature," Saputara says it all.We’re delighted that the Sawston Fun Run is back this year and we are very much looking forward to being involved. You can enter online at www.sawstonfunrun.co.uk, or pick up an entry form from the school reception. Watch the film below to find out more about this exciting community event.The goal of the Civic Volunteers team is to develop one-on-one relationships with YI students in order to help facilitate a path to independence as they mature into adult life in Santa Barbara. Civic Volunteers will assist students as needed to help them acquire social and public services that they might not otherwise have access to. While the initial interaction with a YI student may be more task-oriented, our hope is some relationships will develop into more of a mentoring relationship if the students is open to it and the civic mentor has the time and desire.
We are looking for civic mentors who can:
• Act as an active and compassionate listener
• Help promote and guide independent problem solving skills
• Provide reliable adult mentorship
• Act as a confident and/or “cheerleader” for the student
Task Oriented Goals for Civic Mentors
• Help students plan for and pursue post-secondary dreams
~ Examples include: Help students navigate the application process for SBCC, federal financial aid (FAFSA), local financial aid applications, the DREAM Act, Schott School of Continuing Education, other vocational schools in the area as the need arises.
• Help students obtain government issued licenses, IDs, paperwork, etc
• Transport a student to the DMV to help them complete any applications or paperwork necessary to help make students more mobile and independent.
~ Examples include helping students obtain a driver’s licence, California ID card, driver’s education course enrollment, etc)
• Legal “Aid” Referrals
• Help connect the mentee to legal aid services in Santa Barbara through congregants who may be willing to work pro bono or help connecting students to SB Legal Aid offices.
• Miscellaneous
• Voter registration
• Opening a Bank Account

Finite element methods for the simulation of incompressible powder flow. Ouazzi, a., Turek, S., & Hron, J. Communications in Numerical Methods in Engineering, 21(10):581-596, 6, 2005.
Unlike fluids, flowing powders do not exhibit viscosity such that a Newtonian rheology cannot accurately describe granular flow. Assuming that the material is incompressible, dry, cohesionless, and perfectly rigid-plastic, and based on continuum theories, generalized Navier-Stokes equations ('Schaeffer Model') have been derived where the velocity gradient has been replaced by the shear rate, and the viscosity depends on pressure and shear rate which leads to mathematically complex problems. In this note we present numerical algorithms to approximate these highly non-linear equations based on finite element methods; A Newton linearization technique is applied directly to the corresponding continuous variational formulations. The approximation of incompressible velocity field is treated by using stabilized nonconforming Stokes elements and we use a pressure Schur complement smoother as defect correction in a direct multigrid approach to solve the linear saddle-point problems with high numerical efficiency. The results of several computational experiments for prototypical flow configurations are provided. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
A new Chromecast you say? One that looks like this? One that supports more apps and streams quicker? One that still costs the same £30?
Yes indeed, and the new puppy isn’t a “stick” any more. Now we have a round “puck shape” with a HDMI cable so it’ll fit into even the most cramped of TV slots. Despite it being hidden around the back of your posh TV set and rarely seen, it’s to be available in red, yellow or black.
Wi-Fi connectivity has been improved, with 802.11ac connectivity to both 2.4GHz and the 5GHz WiFi network. The new antenna system inside the device should improve streaming reliability too, so no more juddering in the middle of your favourite video.
Oh wait. You know what all this means. The old one is going to be cheaper isn’t it? Oh yes.
To be honest the old one isn’t that bad, and now it’s down to £19.99 from Expansys.
Also, if you want some add some extra juice to your old hi-fi, you can now get the Chromecast Audio. This feeds streamed audio into your speaker system or hi-fi via 3.5mm audio, optical or RCA connections. Then it’s just a matter of firing up your smartphone, kicking Spotify, iPlayer Radio or another streaming audio app into action and you’ve got a room full of tunes. All that for £30? Hey, that’s not bad really, is it?
If you’d like to know more, check out our overview of the previous Google Chromecast from last year.
The Chromecast app is also getting an update, with links to Chromecast-friendly apps that you might like to try alongside related content.Till the world ends and the eyes are out and the mouths broken
Look! It is there!
-- Archibald MacLeish*
On late summer afternoons the low sun forces its way through foliage to my window, printing a pattern of framed branches and stems, leaves and gems of light, on the opposite wall. Just a little breeze is all it takes, a tremor in the woods, to make these shadows boil. As they thrash and spiral, small but fervently projected suns flash and burst among them. Isolated from the sound of wind and bound within their box, the shadows seem more violent than the things that cast them.
This is what in the theatre we call subtext. Nothing going on, but colossal conflicts written on the stillness.
As you read subtext, you learn what it was like to be there. I’m here right now, doing nothing much, and yet my mere existence is an impossible precipitate of cosmic force, and I read that force in the turbulence of shadows. Some would say that I am watching as God sustains me, others that I am looking through cracks into the warfare of my soul. I am indifferent to the difference.
On the wall of our dining room hang two family portraits, painted photographs of a grandfather’s parents. Stiff in their chairs, they speak of tradition, and they compliment the colors of the room. We remember their names; our children perhaps shall not. We do not know the turbulence of their spirits, or the flavoring of their tea, or the sound of their voices on a winter morning, or their smell to a child sitting in their laps. We have nearly lost them. When the family forgets their names, they will have vanished, their flame snuffed. Then their immortality will have to be sustained elsewhere, in some other way.
It’s reasonable to hope, given the record of my forebears, that I’ll be here in a couple of decades, knowing who I am still. And yet I might, as my friend says, collide unfortunately with the bagel-truck this afternoon. I’ve reached the age when it’s folly not to be ready. The world is full of fools and I inherit folly, and no one of course is guaranteed another day. But now it comes across to me, there is no more time to mortgage. I cannot sign away this year, this month, this moment to The Idiot, in hope of future Authenticity. The Promise must be Now. Now must be the Promise.
Which is not to say There Shall (Or Not) Be Fun. There will be some fun, and some fear, some laughs and tears, but whatever is to come, it must be Real. No more flight from the moment toward a dicey future. No more career moves unless they pay off now. The present is what I know I have. It must make sense. I must make sense of it. Readiness is all.
Any fool who would undertake the task of my biography would die of boredom before he finished. I haven
