The recent initiatives by the Government of India such as Make in India and Digital India have provided the necessary boost for growth to the SME sector. Indeed, with around 50% of the working population engaged with SMEs, the financial health and growth of this sector directly impact the Indian economy. For a defined global presence, India needs these small and medium sized enterprises to grow into larger industries capable of supplying to consumers worldwide.
Many young businesses have seen the light of the day in the recent years. Along with them, the existing micro and small businesses have also been incentivised towards their growth journey. However, along with young, innovative ideas and hard work, a small business also needs easy access to a business loan in India at the right time to capitalise on new business opportunities.
The advent of new-age Fintech lenders in the last few years has led to a variety of small business loans being made available for business finance that are tailored to suit different needs. It is integral for small or young businesses to adopt a systematic growth plan and follow it religiously to remain competitive in the global economy. By approaching FinTech lenders, they can be sure of getting business finance at the right time. Also, maintaining healthy financial and credit history helps in getting the maximum possible amount of small business loans as well as the best interest rates and repayment conditions. Here are key tips you should keep in mind to ensure maximum eligibility for a loan for business in India.
1. Maintain a healthy credit score: Good financial habits and a history of having paid previous small business loans on time not only help individuals but also businesses. A small business, especially when it's young, is likely to have a good credit record to convince lenders about its business finance repayment capabilities. This is precisely what lenders want to be certain about before disbursing a loan for business in India. For a young business, the credit history of promoters is absolutely critical. Likewise, a small business should take business finance only when needed and for a specific business purpose. Also, never delay in repaying a business loan in India especially when you have the funds to repay them.
2. Be clear about the need for small business loans: Before disbursing a business loan in India, a lender would want to be absolutely sure about your need for a loan. Therefore, do your homework thoroughly and come up with genuine needs to convince a prospective lender. For instance, your business could be seasonal in nature and you could be confident of making profits during that period. You may want small business loans for that period to reach out to more customers. Using this logic, you could go ahead and convince a lender that the business finance amount will be used for business growth and will be repaid during subsequent months using the profits earned during the peak season.
3. Explore all business finance options: The first thing any small business would do is to approach a bank or traditional financial lenders for taking a business loan in India. However, most traditional players are riddled with non-performing assets and therefore, to cut their risk exposure, prefer disbursing secured loans only. This requires you to pledge collateral against small business loans. Most small businesses are unlikely to have collateral valuable enough to obtain the loan amount they require. Therefore, they should look at other possible sources of loan for business in India such as Fintech lenders that use cutting-edge technology platforms, provide a convenient online application process and if approved, disburse small business loans within a few working days.
4. Repay small business loans on time: The timely repayment of a business loan in Indiagoes a long way in not just establishing your creditworthiness but also in prompt disbursal of a loan amount should you need it the next time. Therefore, calculate your business need methodically and only borrow that amount you genuinely need for furthering your business. Also, do your mathematics around your expected business earnings during the coming months and based on it, come up with an estimate of the repayment schedule that you are going to comfortably meet. Such an attitude will help establish a trust factor in the lender's mind and he will look forward to providing more business finance over a longer period of time.
5. No collateral, no worry: In the absence of collateral, you can reach out to the new-age Fintech lenders for business finance. Normally, banks and traditional financial institutions want to be absolutely sure about the creditworthiness of a business and therefore prefer disbursing loans against collateral. Fintech lenders understand the needs of a young business better and also the fact that they are not likely to have any collateral to pledge. They check the creditworthiness of a business and the likely revenue it will generate in future before disbursing small business loans without collateral. Therefore, they don't tie the loan amount as a percentage of the collateral but offer it based on the business need. Moreover, they are quite flexible with the repayment schedule.
6. Keep a list of business receivables in hand: Nothing impresses a lender more than solid proof of a high-performing business. Therefore, collate all your business receivables—both past and those scheduled for the future—to be produced before the lender. In case you have receivables from blue-chip companies, regardless of the credit period, be rest assured your case for an unsecured loan gets even stronger. Once a lender is convinced about your business prospects, he is not likely to ask any further questions before sanctioning your loan amount. In fact, he might offer even better financial products than what you had applied for.
7. Keep all financial documents ready: A little bit of meticulous planning while applying for small business loans not only shows your seriousness and genuine business need but also creates a favourable impression in the mind of the lender. Therefore, collate all required financial documents such as tax returns, VAT returns, identity proofs, previous loan repayment proof and business receivables in hand before applying for a loan. Looking at all the right documents in the first instance would make the lender take notice of your application and begin processing the loan with a positive intent.

The Careline alarm is often referred to as an "elderly alarm." Whilst our alarms do help your loved one to stay in their own homes for longer, the alarm is not solely for the elderly population. In fact, anyone can have a Careline alarm. In this article, we will answer the question: Who is the Careline Alarm for?
The Careline Alarm
This type of alarm system was designed to signal the presence of a hazard, requiring urgent attention and to summon emergency medical personnel. However, this type of assistance is not only required for the elderly. A great number of people suffer from many different medical conditions, feel vulnerable at home or require urgent attention.
Who is the Careline Alarm for?
Examples of people who can use a Careline Alarm:
- Anyone suffering from an illness where they can't be left alone. In particular, this can be true for conditions like epilepsy.
- This does not only apply to physical health conditions. Mental health conditions are not as visible, but just as important. For example, those suffering from conditions like anxiety, depression or panic attacks could benefit from having a Careline alarm. It can be extremely reassuring to know that if your loved one was feeling panicked or worried, they can press a button and help would be on the way.
- Vulnerable people in a violent or abusive relationship.
- Lone workers. If you or your loved one works alone for long periods of time, the Careline alarm could be beneficial. As well as the increased confidence, it also adds a sense of security.
How does the Careline Alarm help?
The Careline alarm provides a peace of mind for your loved ones and allows them to feel safe at home.
While that may be true, the alarm service does not only benefit the alarm user and their families. It can also help to relieve the strain from the NHS. For example, many of our customers purchase these alarms after they've suffered a fall or come out of hospital. This helps your loved one to return home from hospital quickly and also helps to free hospital beds for others who may need them. Quite often, Careline alarms are recommended by Occupational Therapists or doctors as a way of rehabilitation. This can help your loved one to avoid long hospital stays.
Additionally, we ask our customers for a list of emergency contacts – which also helps the emergency services. Instead of numerous welfare calls to the ambulance service – family members or friends are called first, should the emergency services not be needed. An example of this may be if the alarm user has had a fall and simply needs help getting off the floor. This means the paramedics are more available for medical emergency calls. Of course in some circumstances, the emergency services are required and we're able to call them on the user's behalf.
What are the advantages?
- Supports individuals to live at home safely and for longer.
- Improves safety at home.
- Increases confidence and quality of life.
- Peace of mind for the alarm user and the family and friends.
Get in Touch
If you feel like your loved one could benefit from having a personal alarm, you can order online or over the phone today. Our Customer Service Team are available on 0800 101 333 to answer any questions and help with the order. Alternatively, if you would like more information (perhaps to take round to your loved one's house to discuss with them) we can send you an information pack via email or in the post – contact us today to arrange your very own pack.

Today is the first Sunday of the Advent season. The season begins four Sundays before Christmas and ends on Christmas Eve. Advent tradition has its roots deep in Christian history that can be traced as far back as the 6th century AD with certainty (possibly as far back as the 4th with some question). It is marked with anticipation and preparation for the celebration of the birth of the Messiah. It is anticipation and preparation for the celebration of the coming of "hope of pardon, hope of peace with God, hope of glory" that came with Christ. It is also a celebration and anticipation of the second advent (second coming) of Christ still to be realized in the future.
Isaiah 9:6-7
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and of peace
there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this.
We are entering a time where we celebrate the coming of the Messiah who did establish and does uphold His kingdom "with justice and righteousness" and we look forward to His second coming where all He inaugurated will be consummated. Perhaps today could be the day? We can hope and pray.
By His Grace,

Character: Toasty and jammy notes with lightly vegetative flavor. Genmaicha is one of the world's most unique teas. The tea is usually made using Japanese Sencha or Bancha grade teas - ours is a steamed Sencha - and is blended with roasted rice kernels making the tea look as though it has been mixed with popcorn. The flavor of Genmaicha is light, with mild nutty overtones. The tea can be brewed at a slightly higher temperature than most green teas in order to bring out this wonderfully mild flavor. Genmaicha is an excellent palate cleanser and is perfect for drinking with Asian-themed meals. This quality has made it one of the most popular teas in Japan. This tea is grown organically; no pesticides or chemical fertilizers were used in its production. Certified Organic by QMI Organic Inc. Certificate #: 150 - 200. USDA Certified Organic.
Country of Origin: Japan
Region: Shizuoka Prefecture
Grade: Steamed Sencha
Altitude: 1000' ft. above sea level
Manuf. Type: Orthodox
Infusion: Bright, emerald infusion
Ingredients: Luxury green tea, Roasted rice
Hot Tea: This tea is best enjoyed by pouring 180F/90C water over the leaves (1 tsp per cup) for 3 minutes (longer=stronger). Don't remove the leaves. Can be infused repeatedly 2-3 times using higher temperatures & shorter infusions until flavor is exhausted.
Iced Tea: Pour 1 1/4 cups of hot water over 6 teaspoons of tea and steep for 5 minutes. Pour into pitcher while straining leaves, add ice and top up with cold water to make a quart of iced tea. Garnish and sweeten to taste.

There is no area of health care as challenging for families, doctors, nurses and our District Health Board as mental health. Local problems include the awful case where a psychotic man presented at our hospital late last year, was unattended and who subsequently left and violently attacked and raped an innocent Nelson woman. Last week we had the report released on the tragic death of the 20-year-old autistic Marlborough woman at the hand of her mother as sole caregiver. There is also the ongoing controversy over the changes to the Child and Adolescent Mental Health after-hours service.
The problem is not unique to Nelson or New Zealand. Most Western countries are seeing strong increases in demand for mental health services. There is evidence the increased prevalence of drugs like methamphetamine or 'P' is contributing. Some academics have also pointed to a connection to modern technology and social media that make people more vulnerable to bullying and less able to escape. Whatever the reason, we need to improve our services to cope with the increased demand.
I am seeing the problems in my Nelson constituency work. Families are critical of not being able to get access to mental health services. An increasing number of Police callouts are for people with mental health issues. I am also worried about high turnover of our mental health staff.
National responded to these mental health challenges with a $100 million package of new initiatives in the 2017 Budget. It is fair criticism that we should have acted earlier, but the package was sound. Designed by experts in the field, it had mental health nurses attending 111 callouts alongside police and paramedics. I am disappointed that the new Government choose to cancel it. I hope they might reconsider after the Mental Health Inquiry is concluded.
I met last week with our DHB Chair and CEO and senior management. I commend them for the change in having mental health professionals now available at Accident and Emergency 24/7.
I am particularly keen to see progress on more supported living beds being available, more immediate support for 'P' addicts and proposals for increased support for eating disorders.
I also advocate a national rethink of the policy of deinstitutionalisation and community care. I am not talking about a return to the 1970s of having hundreds of people in large institutions like Ngawhatu. We have a small group of high need high risk individuals who are not coping. They are ending up homeless or in prison. These people need supervision and supported living where they cannot harm themselves or others.
National took the initiative last week to establish a cross-party group to focus on improving New Zealand's mental health services. Issues like New Zealand's ugly suicide rates transcend party politics. Our ambition is to help drive the policy changes needed to improve services and get families the support they need.

Welcome to the website of the Friends of steamship Rotterdam
Since 2001 we have been striving for a new life for the ss Rotterdam in the Rotterdam harbour.
The Rotterdam came into service for Holland-America Line as their flagship in 1959. Built by the Rotterdam Drydock Company, she is the largest passenger liner ever built in the Netherlands and is numbered among the most successful liners which ever sailed the seven seas. The ship has largely kept her original character and remains in good condition. The new owners gave her a profound refurbishment so she can be in service as a static liner for many years. Please explore out website for more information about the history of the ss Rotterdam.
Steamship Rotterdam Foundation, alias Friends of steamship Rotterdam, continues her activities including securing a lasting preservation and use in a culturally and historically responsible manner. We are not the owners or operators of the ship. WestCord Hotels are the owners since June 2013. Please see the website of the operators www.ssrotterdam.nl for information about possibilities on board.

Editorial | June 11, 2019
Legal aid forms a vital part of Tasmania's judicial system and Australian democracy at large.
Those deemed not wealthy enough to afford a lawyer to represent them in court, should be provided some assistance. However, Law Society of Tasmania president Evan Hughes says the system is broken due to the federal government's undervaluation, as alluded to in the Department of Justice Evaluation of the Legal Assistance Sector Report. The report reveals a "funding cliff" for the Legal Aid Commission and community legal centres in Tasmania following Commonwealth cuts in 2014-15 as a result of the National Partnership Agreement.
The state government will this financial year prop up the system to the tune of $1.3 million, a move Mr Hughes said saves 40 per cent of services from being cut. Hardly a sustainable model and the Morrison government must provide more support when the NPA comes up for renewal next year.
The state government budgeted a record $8.9 million in 2019-20 for legal assistance, but more federally needs to be done to ensure disadvantaged Tasmanians gain access.
Bass Liberal MHR Bridget Archer was elected largely due to swings away from Labor in Launceston's working-class suburbs so it should be incumbent on her to ensure the federal government takes meaningful action during renegotions. Law professionals are not charity workers. They study for years and deserve to be paid appropriately. They should not have to increase their generous pro-bono work to keep a vital service intact.
Additional funding and a long-term strategic and business model is needed. An estimated $310 million annually is needed nationally to maintain and grown services.
The government has budgeted $1.2 billion over three years from July 1 2020 but fell short of saying on what and where it will be spent. People shouldn't be forced to represent themselves in court which only adds to the growing court backlog as Magistrates are often forced to talk them through the legal process and jargon.
It's staggering that 14 per cent of Australians live below the poverty line, yet just 8 per cent qualify for legal assistance.
Something must change.

Fire Sprinkler Projects
Mack Fire Protection has overseen the design, installation and regular maintenance for a number of wide-ranging commercial projects in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Westchester County, NY. Recent projects include Stamford Town Center, Crate and Barrel, CVS, Rite Aid, Milford Marketplace, North Haven Commons, Lowe's, Super Stop and Shop and a Whole Foods distribution center.
The company brings expertise with every aspect of the fire sprinkler process, including the design of special hazard systems for server rooms, freezers, and other rooms with high-technology uses. We provide the highest level of protection where water is an issue, and we bring a level of quality and care to each project, which often leads to ongoing relationships, including continued inspections, with our commercial clients.
Danbury Police Department, Danbury, CT
Mack Fire Protection, LLC was contracted by KBE Building Corporation to design, supply and install numerous special hazard systems throughout this 75,000 square foot new police facility.
The project presented several challenging areas, including a shooting range, parking garage, multiple cells and a highly sensitive dispatch/data center.
Well over 1000 sprinkler heads were needed to complete this design which included multiple Dry Systems for the garage, Wet Systems, Pre-Action Systems, FM-200 systems and Air Sampling Technologies for the Dispatch Center.
KBE and MFP have both been recognized by The Associated Builders and Contractors of CT, for the outstanding work performed at the Danbury Police Facility. KBE and MFP continue to work hand and hand on multiple other projects throughout the state of CT ranging from new municipal buildings to fast track Lowe's Home Centers.
Wallingford Library, Wallingford, CT
A.P. Construction Company contracted with Mack Fire Protection, LLC to design, supply and install complete fire protection throughout this 65,000 square foot facility.
This property required over 700 wet sprinklers carefully spaced with the addition of a Dry System to protect the loading dock area. MFP worked closely with A.P. Construction and other trades to coordinate a work schedule that allowed the Library to remain open during construction.
The project was completed on time with no down time to the owner.
Darien Library, Darien, CT
A.P. Construction Company contracted with Mack Fire Protection, LLC to design, supply and install complete fire protection throughout this 54,000 square foot facility.
This architecturally challenging building required over 700 wet sprinklers and a Pre-Action System to protect the Data Room. This state-of-the-art building required extensive pre-construction engineering to address the many ceiling slopes and elevation changes throughout.
All that pre-engineering paid off with the sprinkler system being installed in perfect harmony with all the lighting and ceiling systems. MFP has been retained by the owner to perform NFPA 25 quarterly inspections, testing and routine maintenance.
The company has always been able to perform the work as scheduled. You never have to be concerned with Mack Fire Protection's performance, which allows you to focus on other activities. They always center all the sprinkler heads on ceiling tiles and ensure the tile is not marked by finge

John Donlan : Comments By Writers And Critics (Date unknown)
There's a species of aesthetic poise – we might call it musical intelligence – which comes about when discipline and surprise are working, not just in combination, but each for the other. I think of John Donlan's poems as wise acrobats, alive to the many weathers of the self but equally well-tuned to cityscape and landscape, performing athletic meditations inside a stillness they create for themselves. In Green Man we have a collection by one of our finest poets working at full stretch.
– Don McKay
Domestic Economy constitutes one of the most assured, as well as the most beautiful, depictions we have of postmodern Canada; nor is it easy to say which is the more astonishing: the easy command of everything philosophical and cultural that has gone into bringing about the postmodern or the intimacy and immediacy with which the daily facts of life in this country are brought to art. … The effect is an exhilarating release into intelligence and inclusiveness – this is a poetry whose door is always open – without surrendering any of the luminous pleasure that comes from tight formal beauty.

A shopper killed in a row over a disabled parking space in an Asda supermarket car park had just been given the all-clear following months of cancer treatment, it emerged today.
Brian Holmes, 64, died in hospital a day after becoming involved in an argument with a man in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, on Saturday.
Mr Holmes, of Sandy, Bedfordshire, was today described as a 'family man who adored his grandchildren and family'.
A statement from his family said: 'The family are devastated by the loss of Brian in such shocking circumstances. A wife has lost her husband, best friend and carer all in one go.
'Brian and his wife were only just starting to make plans for the future that they only dared to dream of… he had only this week been given the all clear following treatment for cancer.'
Mr Holmes suffered a fatal head injury in the alleged attack at the weekend. He was taken to Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridge for treatment, but died there on Sunday, surrounded by his family.
A 65-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter on Sunday and was released on bail yesterday.
Detective Inspector Liz Mead, who is leading the investigation, said: 'This is an extremely sad incident which has left a family absolutely devastated and our family liaison officers are doing all that they can to assist and support them at this very difficult time.'
She added: 'I would like to hear from anybody who was in the car park at Asda on Saturday afternoon and may have seen the incident taking place close to the disabled parking area. A number of people have already come forward but it is imperative that we speak with as many people as possible and collect all of the facts into what happened. '

First, from all of us at Luminous-Landscape, we hope you are enjoying spending time with friends and family this long Easter weekend. All of us at Luminous-Landscape wish to thank you for making us a part of your day and we appreciate you being part of our larger family.
Video is an important part of web content these days. Luminous-landscape has been producing videos since before there was YouTube. We have been diligently working to blend video content with our regular text content to appeal to a wide audience and enhance communication.
For a few months, I have been working on an idea to present a new video segment for Luminous-Landscape. I wanted to do something other than a single person talking to the camera. The idea was to include other knowledgeable people in the photography industry. As time went by, I shared this idea, brainstormed it, and finally arrived at a format I thought would be fun for our viewers as well as us.
As many of you may know, I am fortunate enough to have one of the last great family-owned camera stores, Roberts Camera, only a few blocks from my office. For me, visiting Roberts is like many folks visiting the local hardware store. Everyone at Roberts is friendly, knowledgeable, and has an opinion, not to mention a great sense of humor. It's always a fun time talking about new cameras, technologies, gear, and all other aspects of photography.
That got me thinking, and it wasn't long before I thought that if I could bring this concept to video, we might be onto something. As the thought process matured, I asked Jody Grober and Phil Gibson of Roberts if they would be part of the program. They were hesitant to start, but the more we discussed it the more we all started seeing the possibilities. Not long after that, I went to Meredith Reinker, Director of Marketing for Roberts, and discussed the idea with her. She thought it sounded great too. We now had the cast and a few ideas.
I then met with Michael Durr, one our videographers at Luminous-Landscape, and together we brainstormed how we could pull this off. We needed a title and a location or set. As we talked more, we thought about how cool it would be if we filmed as though the three of us were at a bar, talking photography. Michael, being the young, hip guy he is, had the brilliant idea of actually filming at a bar. It wasn't long before we agreed this was the way to go.
Soon after that, we found a very cool whiskey bar, Hotel Tango, in downtown Indianapolis. This charming location had numerous places to set up and shoot, and they agreed we could come in before opening and produce the videos. We were still trying to come up with a title, and it was Michael's idea to call our new series "On The Rocks".
We were making progress. Now, all we needed was a date. On Wednesday, March 28th, Jody, Phil, and myself, along with Michael and JOHN DOE, our sound man, got together and produced our first two episodes of "On The Rocks".
If you can't tell from the photos in this article, we had a blast and great conversations about photography. We'll keep the topics a surprise until we debut the first video toward the middle of this month.
This will be an ongoing series with at least two episodes each month. We see this series as a chance for Jody, Phil, and myself to talk about the many aspects of photography today. We will occasionally have guests from various segments of the photography industry, along with representatives from different vendors and manufacturers. All in all, it should be fun and informative. Keep your eye out for the first episode coming soon.

There are undoubtedly a lot of advantages to being able to enjoy casino games online, especially when one is experiencing a mobile casino. One of the most significant benefits is as long as players have a mobile device, and access to the internet, they can enjoy their casino play, no matter where they may be.
It is true that mobile casinos are easy to access, and can provide some great wins. Also, they are a form of great entertainment. What is essential, is that those who are going to enjoy a mobile casino, choose one that has been appropriately licenced, and is following all of the rules applicable to that licence.
It can be quite easy for an individual who is enjoying casino play, to spend more money than they should. This is because there are many games to choose from. Also, online casinos can be accessed 24/7. It is definitely the responsibility of the player to set an affordable budget for gambling and stick with this.

Dwarfed by three mock satellite dishes upon which video feeds were projected, Bon Jovi bounced onto the KeyArena stage and the sold-out crowd bounced along with them.
Tuesday's concert was one of the last in a world tour that has brought back old fans and won a new generation of rockers who had never experienced a full-blown 1980s arena rock show.
Songs from the group's current best-selling album, "Bounce," and 1986 breakthrough, "Slippery When Wet," constituted half the show, with new songs like "Everyday," the first single from "Bounce," holding its own with "Livin' on a Prayer" and other classics.
Singer Jon Bon Jovi, at 40 still the all-American boy, was clad in tight blue jeans and a button-down shirt. Guitarist Richie Sambora, who received equal face time on the monitors, sported a long fringe coat. Projecting a timeless sense of good times, these partners in rock 'n' roll took their fans on a two-hour ride that connected the idealism of youth to an adulthood in which emotions still run deep.
Songs like "Runaway," the band's very first single, with its simple melody covering a broad emotional range, showed off Bon Jovi's still flexible voice. Sambora's guitar playing was spot on, having lost neither the conviction nor the technique of his early years. The band as a whole had a crisp, dense sound.

Hi All, Please see below 6 months pics. Waiting to hear from other members of the forum. P.S.: Dont know where did those whites came from !!
Thanks Harebrained and Home1212. Personally I like the coverage but feel that hairline should be more dense. Hairline hasnt still met my satisfaction, but its only 5 months so I am going to wait. I do smile looking into the mirror and have got some compliments when not under bright lights. No one has smelled HT so far, so yes. I believe my new hair does look very natural. Have been using propecia and minoxidil 5% once a dayas advised by Dr Bhatti.
Hi Friends, Please find the pics attached at 20th week. Before I say anything about how feel, I would like to hear what everyone thinks. I have taken pics in bright light to give true impression.
HI All, I am now 6 weeks post op...and here are the pics. I dont know if I am having shockloss or not as I can see lot of hair on me head standing like straws. If I have these hair with shockloss, then I think I am going to have rocking result. BUT if this is without shockloss and if this is the final density I am going to have then its a worrisome. I know I should not judge at such an early stage, but empty mind is devil's workshop. Last pic is what I look like at the moment IMO.
Thanks Jameslondon. It was FUE. Blood test was mainly for few basic checks which are done for any surgery, like HIV, bleeing time/clotting time, etc.
Thanks David.....I hope so too....will keep updating the thread with progress. -Cheers
Hi Friends, Sharing my HT experience. After spending over a year researching on surgeons and procedure, I finally decided and underwent my first HT with Dr Tejinder Bhatti in India on Feb 2' 2016. I am 30 years male and like everyone, I also had lots of IFs and BUTs, TO or NOT TO sort of thoughts. People around me kept saying that I should be strong to embrace the baldness the natural way and that going for HT is a sign of weakness. But I believe it takes more courage to go for a procedure like HT and I am happy about it so far. I chose Dr Bhatti because his work on this and other forums looks impressive. Communication with him is strong point which builds in confidence. If I remember correctly, he replied to all my emails within a day. I even had my dilemma the evening before the surgery. But once I met with Dr Bhatti and his team, I got enough confidence to proceed. Both Dr Bhatti and his team know their stuff and are extremely transparent. Procedure took around 8 hours. I reached clinic sharp at 7, thanks to clinic's very punctual driver Sachin. Had a meeting with Dr Bhatti to discuss hairline one more time, followed by the blood test and then straight to the OT. Dr Bhatti did harvesting which took around two hours. I felt little pain while anesthesia was being injected, rest of the time it was very much under tolerable limits with two spikes during entire procedure. Slit making took another 1 hour and then I was given 10 mins break. Plantation was then done by the team who seem very careful and confident about it. So I had no worries either. Girls turned out big Bollywood fans like me. Dr Bhatti kept checking in every few mins to make sure everything was alright. It was all complete by around 3 pm. I was given nice lunch and asked to wait for 1-2 hours for bandage removal. Next day there was 1 hour session in the morning for post op care instructions. Dr Bhatti checked my buds and even commented that I had taken very good care during the night. I was now free to leave Chandigarh. All in all it was a pleasant experience and I hope my results turn out rocking. I am following all post care instructions like military orders. Attaching my before procedure pic and 6th day post op pics. Would love to hear feedback. -Cheers
Hi All, Updating the thread with my decision. I have booked my transplant procedure with Dr Bhatti and have going to have it after a week. THe few reasons which made me choose Dr Bhaati over my other options are below: -Good results, I did not find even single bad result by Dr Bhatti anywhere on this or other forums. -I spoke with couple of his patients (thanks to Shera and Sethticles for their vaiuable inputs) and they strongly recommend him. -Open and transparent communication. Dr Bhatti discussed and ensure me that all my conerns will be addressed, It was very relieving and helped getting confidence about going with him. -Dr Bhatti is much more experienced with Asian patients than others, and his results look really impressive in terms of coverage and clean hairline. I will start another thread in appropriate section to post my story and results. I hope I have made right decision as I am still little nervous.
Hello Dr Bhatti, Thank you for the comment. I am considering you and infact more inclined in my choices, because your work is quite impressive overall. Hairlines are good, but looking at the pictures, I feel if there should be more micro/macro irregularities along the border. Hairlines at some places looks linear. Please note that this is going to be my first HT so the view points I am presenting are more like concerns rather than judgement. Your openness in communication really brings in degree of confidence.
Thank you for the input HTsoon. Have a reason to rule out Dr Doganay now. I am still considering Dr Erdogan, but have heard that communication (both pre op and post op) might be issue there. Still open for him though. Yes, Dr Bhatti is indeed impressive, but looking at the photographs, I feel that his hairlines are not very natural (they are not bad ofcourse, not at all, but they dont look as natural as others). As I said, I am confused and might appear as if I am rolling both side. But the decision is somewhat like that. Will appreciate any inputs if you have about Dr Demirsoy.
Hi Friends, I am planning to have FUE procedure. As per my knowledge, I should need around 3000 grafts (pic attached). After intensive research on this forum, I have zeroed down on three surgeons. Dr. Bhatti in India and Dr. Hakan Doganay & Dr. Erkan Demirsoy in Turkey. I am more inclined towards Dr Bhatti. His results are impressive, but only concern I have is his hairlines dont look that natural. Dr Demirsoy is not recommended on this forum, but one of his HT stories results look damn impressive:http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/173669-fue-dr-erkan-demirsoy-2500-grafts-11th-february-2014-a.html I have infact read so much that I am now totally confused on how to make the choice. Any advise or inputs will be very helpful. -Thanks MJ
Thanks Levrais and Hariri, I have heard that FUE is good in Belgium. I will explore other options somehow I feel that Indian doctors have performed enough surgeries now to get the requried level of expertese, I am just being biased here.....I would start looking for Belgium as an option.
thanks the opinion Matt.....Forunately hair loss is only heath problem I have , so I am ok to be on Propecia. I am on minoxidil 5% for past 3 years and was prescribed Saw Palmitano, which I know has got no proven results, by a renowened clinic. I will defeinitely explore and try propecia I am under impression that I have a good donor area.....here is the pic anyways. I tried shaving my head couple of times, it wasnt that bad but I do not want to stay sahved head for lifetime.
Apart from me looking to have option of shaving my head in future, isnt there any other parameter to decide between FUE and FUT considering my pattern of baldness. I am inclined towards FUE as I have come to know the it gives less density but better and natural look. Could anyone please suggest looking at pics I posted in previous posts. Thanks

Proposed Changes to Taxation of Lease Inducement Payments
In late July the IRD released an issues paper proposing to tax inducement payments to enter into leases or acquire other interests in land. It anticipates that legislation will be included in a tax bill to be introduced in Parliament later this year, with the change to be applied to lease arrangements entered into from 1 April 2013.
The IRD claims that the proposed change is necessary because of the asymmetric tax treatment of inducement payments, which are usually capital to the tenant while deductible to the landlord. It points to the 2010 changes which made landlord contributions for fitout costs taxable and says that it is not sensible for cash lease inducement payments which could be used for fitout, to be treated differently for tax purposes from payments that are contractually required to be spent on fitout.
The proposal is that an amount "derived by a person as an inducement to enter into, or in connection with, an arrangement that grants an estate or interest in, or right over, land" would be taxable. Arrangements involving a sale of land would be specifically excluded, and residential tenancies would also not be affected.
Payments which would be taxable include:
- inducement payments in respect of subleases, licences and easements
- inducement payments to assignees of leases
- lease arrangements with the option to purchase
- non-cash benefits eg. forgiveness of a tenant's liabilities,
- contributions to a tenant's start-up or relocation costs
- covering a tenant's rent or break costs with an old lease
An "arrangement" is something less than a contract, and can include informal plans or understandings. The payment can be made by or to parties associated with either party – ie it doesn't have to be made by the landlord or received by the tenant.
The government has announced that the changes will come into effect on 1 April 2012. What is not clear is whether that date applies to the commencement date of a lease or the date that documentation is entered into. No doubt this will be clarified once the legislation is introduced.
New Zealand companies to be required to have a New Zealand director or agent
New Zealand's company registration system is a comparatively simple and speedy online process, but concerns that its simplicity may lead to misuse have led to the proposal that all New Zealand registered companies should have a director or agent who lives in New Zealand.
The proposal would mean that all New Zealand incorporated companies are required to have either:
- A director resident in New Zealand or an approved jurisdiction; or
- An agent resident in New Zealand, who will be responsible for the company's and directors' compliance with their statutory obligations.
The agent must be a natural person, and there may be only one registered agent for a company. Companies which are already registered and which do not have a New Zealand resident director will be required to appoint a resident agent within 6 months of commencement of the new rules. If a company doesn't have a resident director or agent then the Registrar may insert a warning against the company's entry in the register, and then the company may be struck off the register.
Similar rules are proposed for limited partnerships, which will be required to have a resident agent if the limited partnership does not have general partner that is either:
- A natural person living in New Zealand or an approved jurisdiction; or
- A partnership that has at least 1 partner who is a natural person living in New Zealand or an approved jurisdiction; or
- A New Zealand registered company.
Related proposed reforms include increased powers for the Registrar to investigate and deal with non-compliance under the Companies Act, including flagging companies under investigation and the ability for the Registrar to deregister companies for persistent non-compliance.
It is expected that these changes will come into effect in the first half of 2013.
Shareholders can now attend meetings by internet and vote electronically
The Companies Act 1993 has been amended to take into account the use of e-technology, with new provisions allowing shareholders to participate in meetings via the internet, and providing for company information and notices to be served on shareholders by email.
Until now, shareholder meetings could only be held in person or, subject to a company's constitution, by audio or audio and visual communication. Shareholder votes (other than polls) at meetings conducted by audio or audio and visual communication were only allowed by voice.
From 31 August 2012 this has changed, with boards now having the power to allow meetings of shareholders by electronic means, and for shareholders participating electronically to form part of the quorum. A board may impose conditions in relation to the method used (for example the board may want to put in place identification and/or authentication procedures).
Voting on resolutions (other than polls) may be by any method permitted by the chairperson of the meeting, which would include electronic voting. The rules in relation to postal votes have been amended to include electronic votes as part of the postal vote process, so that shareholders can choose to vote electronically.
A shareholder can also now require a company to serve notices and documents on the shareholder electronically, whether in relation to a specific type of notice or records, or for all documents to be served on a shareholder by the company. This means notices calling meetings may be sent by email, provided that the shareholder has notified the company it wishes to be served by this method.
These changes will give shareholders more options for participation in company matters, and will be of particular interest to overseas based shareholders.
Commerce Commission to pursue trans-Tasman cartel case
The Court of Appeal has cleared the way for the Commerce Commission to pursue a claim against an Australian company for involvement in an alleged price-fixing cartel.
The case involves an Australian company, Visy Board Pty Limited, which admitted in earlier proceedings in the Federal Court of Australia brought by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), that Visy Board and its competitor Amcor Limited were parties to a cartel in the corrugated fibreboard packaging market. The Australian court imposed penalties of $36 million on Visy Board in relation to that matter.
The Commerce Commission has issued proceedings against Visy Board for contravention of the Commerce Act 1986, claiming that the cartel arrangements between Visy Board and Amcor Limited extended to the New Zealand market. Amcor Limited was granted leniency by the Commission as it had reported the contraventions to the ACCC, which also granted leniency.
At issue is whether the New Zealand courts have jurisdiction to hear and determine the alleged contraventions of the Act. Visy Board protested the jurisdiction of the New Zealand High Court with some success, resulting in the limitation of the Commission's case. The Commission appealed, and the Court of Appeal issued a ruling on 31 August 2012 overturning the High Court ruling and reinstating the Commission's claims. The Court of Appeal also upheld the High Court's findings that the Commission can pursue certain claims against Visy Board's Australian-based senior executive.
The Court of Appeal held that the Commerce Act enables the Commission to take enforcement action against a person who engages in conduct offshore, if that person is resident or carrying on business in New Zealand, and the conduct is targeted towards New Zealand. The case remains before the courts.
Crafar Farm – update
In July's NZ Law Update we discussed the long running bids by foreign investors to purchase land from the receivers of the Crafar dairy farms. We outlined that in April 2012 the New Zealand Government had approved the sale to a subsidiary of Shanghai Pengxin Group Co. Limited, and that this had been challenged by the Independent Crafar Farms Purchase Group (whose offer for the farms had been rejected by the receivers). The Group argued that the focus of the Overseas Investment Office's appraisal of Shanghai Penxin's relevant experience and acumen should be on the man in ultimate control of the corporation, billionaire Jiang Zhaobai,
Since then, the Court of Appeal has ruled that Shanghai Pengxin did have the sufficient business experience and acumen to run the farms, and upheld the OIO's decision. It found that the business experience and acumen requirement in the Overseas Investment Act was "broadly worded and flexible", and that while Mr Jiang had no experience in dairy farming, the corporation had ensured that its local subsidiary had made appropriate arrangements with others to access industry specific experience.
The CA considered that the government ministers who had signed off the OIO's decision earlier this year were entitled to conclude that the controlling individuals had business experience relevant to the proposed investment, and noted that even if the Court had found the ministers' decision deficient due to Shanghai Pengxin's lack of relevant experience, the Court was unlikely to have exercised its discretion to grant a remedy.
Two Maori trusts that were part of the Independent Crafar Farms Purchase Group, and who want to purchase 3 of the farms in the central North Island, have now filed an appeal against the Court of Appeal decision. It is understood that the trusts are also in negotiations with Shanghai Pengxin to purchase the 3 farms.

Bad weather has a way of causing all sorts of trouble. It knocks out our power, damages our homes, and makes it difficult to get to work. One thing bad weather is particularly good at is causing problems for our cars.
If you live in an area that is prone to bad or severe weather, you're probably wondering what you can do to help keep your car safe. While you may not be able to protect your car from every natural disaster, there are some things you can do to make it just a little safer.
Park in a Safe Location
One of the easiest things you can do is park in a safe location. Ideally, you'll have a nice big garage at your home that you can park your car inside of during bad weather. If you don't, you have a few options. First, you could build a garage or design a carport that fits your needs and will fit in your yard.
Another option is to cover up your car when bad storms are coming, so that it is at least protected from debris blown by the wind. Finally, if all else fails, just be aware of where you park it. Make sure there are no hanging tree limbs directly above it, for example, that might come crashing down.
These same rules apply for when you're on the road. If you have to park on the side of the street, make sure you're far enough over that other cars are not likely to hit you. This is sometimes hard if there's snow on the road, so you may need to find another spot or dig yourself some room.
Again, you should also look up whenever you park out in public. If there are trees or powerlines above your car, it may make sense to find another location to park. Taking a few extra minutes now could be the difference between driving home that night or coming outside to see a tree on top of your car.
Check Your Car Before You Drive
Next up, an important thing you can do is examine your car before you drive. It's a good idea to do this before bad weather arrives, but if you didn't get the chance, you can at least do a quick examination during a storm. Before you pull off onto the road, there's four main things you'll want to check.
First, make sure there is plenty of tread on your tires. Bald tires can't grip the road well, especially in bad weather. Second, make sure your windshield wipers are working. If they are broken, you'll have a hard time seeing out your front window. Third, see that you have enough gas.
You never know what might happen on the roads, and you don't want to be caught in a storm with a broken down car because you ran out of gas. Finally, test your brakes.
Before you start cruising at high speed, pump the brakes a few times to ensure everything is working. Brakes are especially important in bad weather, so see that yours are working okay before you go.
Driving Safely in Bad Weather
If everything checks out with your car, now you can hit the road. To keep your car safe, you'll want to practice good driving habits in bad weather. This means obeying the speed limit, always using your turn signal, and having your headlights on. During bad weather it's important to be extra cautious, as you don't know what the road might throw at you. There's a big difference between hitting a patch of black ice at twenty miles per hours versus forty, so take your time when the weather is rough.
If You Can Avoid It, Don't Drive
Finally, perhaps the best thing you can do during bad weather is simply not drive at all. No matter how many precautions you take, you're putting yourself and your car at risk when you drive in bad conditions. Check the weather and see if it's going to let up soon. Maybe you could wait an hour before running out to the store.
Keeping your car safe during bad weather isn't always possible, but you can at least make it more likely. The key is extra caution. Check your surroundings before your park, make sure your car is in good working condition, drive carefully, and when possible, don't drive at all. If you can do all of this, you should find that you are able to keep your care relatively safe during any type of weather.

The Gospel for today provokes some good reflections. We are listening these days to the early curing-stories in Mark's Gospel. There are many little curings which are statements affirming that Jesus is the Saving Message and Messenger.
The phrase "little curings" seems disrespectful. Was any cure little for those who received it? Was it little power on God's part? Were they little in their impact? Where the people little ones who weren't important? In what sense can any miraculous cure performed by the Lord be called little?

ЁЁЁЁChapter XVII. Old Friends
ЁЁЁЁ"NowЃЌ Aunt SarahЃЌ" pleaded Nan the next morningЃЌ "you might just as well wait and go home on the excursion train. All Meadow Brook will be downЃЌ and it will be so much pleasanter for you. The train will be here by noon and leave at three o'clock."
ЁЁЁЁ"But think of the hour that would bring us to Meadow BrookЃЁ" objected Aunt Sarah.
ЁЁЁЁ"WellЃЌ you will have lots of companyЃЌ and if Uncle Daniel shouldn't meet youЃЌ you can ride up with the Hopkinses or anybody along your road."
ЁЁЁЁMrs. Bobbsey and Aunt Emily added their entreaties to Nan'sЃЌ and Aunt Sarah finally agreed to wait.
ЁЁЁЁ"If I keep onЃЌ" she saidЃЌ "I'll be here all summer. And think of the fruit that's waiting to be preservedЃЁ"
ЁЁЁЁ"HurrahЃЁ" shouted BertЃЌ giving his aunt a good hug. "Then Harry and I can have a fine time with the Meadow Brook boysЃЌ" and Bert dashed out to take the good news to Harry and Hal BinghamЃЌ who were out at the donkey house.
ЁЁЁЁ"Come onЃЌ fellowsЃЁ" he called. "Down to the beachЃЁ We can have a swim before the crowd gets there." And with renewed interest the trio started off for the breakers.
ЁЁЁЁ"I would like to live at the beach all summerЃЌ" remarked Harry. "Even in winter it must be fine here."
ЁЁЁЁ"It isЃЌ" said Hal. "But the winds blow everything away regularlyЃЌ and they all have to be carted back again each spring. This shoreЃЌ with all its trimmings nowЃЌ will look like a bald head by the first of December."
ЁЁЁЁAll three boys were fine swimmersЃЌ and they promptly struck off for the water that was "straightened outЃЌ" as Bert saidЃЌ beyond the tearing of the breakers at the edge. There were few people in the surf and the boys made their way around as if they owned the ocean.
ЁЁЁЁSuddenly Hal thought he heard a callЃЁ
ЁЁЁЁThen a man's arm appeared above the water's surfaceЃЌ a few yards away.
ЁЁЁЁ"CrampsЃЌ" yelled Hal to Harry and BertЃЌ while all three hurried to where the man's hand had been seen.
ЁЁЁЁBut it did not come up again.
ЁЁЁЁ"I'll dive downЃЁ" spluttered HalЃЌ who had the reputation of being able to stay a long time under water.
ЁЁЁЁIt seemed quite a while to Bert and Harry before Hal came up againЃЌ but when he did he was trying to pull with him a bigЃЌ fat manЃЌ who was all but unconscious.
ЁЁЁЁ"Can't moveЃЌ" gasped HalЃЌ as the heavy burden was pulling him down.
ЁЁЁЁBit by bit the man with cramps gained a little strengthЃЌ and with the boys' help he was towed in to shore.
ЁЁЁЁThere was not a life-guard in sightЃЌ and Hal had to hurry off to the pier for some restorativesЃЌ for the man was very weak. On his wayЃЌ Hal met a guard whoЃЌ of courseЃЌ ran to the spot where Harry and Bert were giving the man artificial respiration.
ЁЁЁЁ"You boys did wellЃЁ" declared the guardЃЌ promptlyЃЌ seeing how hard they worked with the sick man.
ЁЁЁЁ"YesЁЊЁЊthey savedЁЊЁЊmy lifeЃЁ" gasped the half-drowned man. "This little fellow"ЁЊЁЊpointing to HalЁЊЁЊ"broughtЁЊЁЊme upЁЊЁЊalmostЁЊЁЊfromЁЊЁЊthe bottomЃЁ" and he caught his breathЃЌ painfully.
ЁЁЁЁThe man was assisted to a room at the end of the pierЃЌ and after a little while he became much better. Of course the boys did not stand aroundЃЌ being satisfied they could be of no more use.
ЁЁЁЁ"I must get those lads' namesЃЌ" declared the man to the guard. "Mine is ЁЊЁЊЃЌ" and he gave the name of the famous millionaire who had a magnificent summer home in another colonyЃЌ three miles away.
ЁЁЁЁ"And you swam from the CedarsЃЌ Mr. BlackЃЌ" exclaimed the guard. "No wonder you got cramps."
ЁЁЁЁAn hour later the millionaire was walking the beach looking for the life-savers. He finally spied Hal.
ЁЁЁЁ"HereЃЌ thereЃЌ you boyЃЌ" he calledЃЌ and Hal came in to the edgeЃЌ but hardly recognized the man in street clothes.
ЁЁЁЁ"I want your nameЃЌ" demanded the stranger. "Do you know there are medals given to young heroes like youЃП"
ЁЁЁЁ"OhЃЌ that was nothingЃЌ" stammered HalЃЌ quite confused now.
ЁЁЁЁ"NothingЃЁ WhyЃЌ I was about deadЃЌ and pulled on you with all my two hundred pounds. You knewЃЌ tooЃЌ you had hardly a chance to bring me up. YesЃЌ indeedЃЌ I want your nameЃЌ" and as he insistedЃЌ Hal reluctantly gave itЃЌ but felt quite foolish to make such a fuss "over nothingЃЌ" as he said.
ЁЁЁЁIt was now about time for the excursion train to come inЃЌ so the boys left the water and prepared to meet their old friends.
ЁЁЁЁ"I hope Jack Hopkins comesЃЌ" said BertЃЌ for Jack was a great friend.
ЁЁЁЁ"OhЃЌ he will be alongЃЌ" Harry remarked. "Nobody likes a good time better than Jack."
ЁЁЁЁ"Here they comeЃЁ" announced HalЃЌ the next minuteЃЌ as a crowd of children with many lunch boxes came running down to the ocean.
ЁЁЁЁ"Hello thereЃЁ Hello thereЃЁ" called everybody at onceЃЌ forЃЌ of courseЃЌ all the children knew Harry and many also knew Bert.
ЁЁЁЁThere were Tom MasonЃЌ Jack HopkinsЃЌ August StoutЃЌ and Ned Prentice in the first crowdЃЌ while a number of girlsЃЌ friends of Nan'sЃЌ were in another group. NanЃЌ NellieЃЌ and Dorothy had been detained by somebody further up on the roadЃЌ but were now coming downЃЌ slowly.
ЁЁЁЁSuch a delight as the ocean was to the country childrenЃЁ
ЁЁЁЁAs each roller slipped out on the sands the children unconsciously followed itЃЌ and soЃЌ many unsuspected pairs of shoes were caught by the next wave that washed in.
ЁЁЁЁ"WellЃЌ here comes Uncle DanielЃЁ" called BertЃЌ asЃЌ sure enoughЃЌ down to the edge came Uncle Daniel with Dorothy holding on one armЃЌ Nan clinging to the otherЃЌ while Nellie carried his small satchel.
ЁЁЁЁSanta Claus could hardly have been more welcome to the Bobbseys at that moment than was Uncle Daniel. They simply overpowered himЃЌ as the surprise of his coming made the treat so much better. The girls had "dragged him" down to the oceanЃЌ he saidЃЌ when he had intended first going to Aunt Emily's.
ЁЁЁЁ"I must see the othersЃЌ" he insistedЃЛ "Freddie and Flossie."
ЁЁЁЁ"OhЃЌ they are all coming downЃЌ" Nan assured him. "Aunt SarahЃЌ tooЃЌ is coming."
ЁЁЁЁ"All rightЃЌ thenЃЌ" agreed Uncle Daniel. "I'll wait awhile. WellЃЌ HarryЃЌ you look like an Indian. Can you see through that coat of tanЃП"
ЁЁЁЁHarry laughed and said he had been an Indian in having a good time.
ЁЁЁЁPresently somebody jumped up on Uncle Daniel's back. As he was sitting on the sands the shock almost brought him down. Of course it was FreddieЃЌ who was so overjoyed he really treated the good-natured uncle a little roughly.
ЁЁЁЁ"Freddie boyЃЁ Freddie boyЃЁ" exclaimed Uncle DanielЃЌ giving his nephew a good long hug. "And you have turned IndianЃЌ tooЃЁ Where's that sea-serpent you were going to catch for meЃП"
ЁЁЁЁ"I'll get him yetЃЌ" declared the little fellow. "It hasn't rained hardly since we came downЃЌ and they only come in to land out of the rain."
ЁЁЁЁThis explanation made Uncle Daniel laugh heartily. The whole family sat around on the sandsЃЌ and it was like being in the country and at the seashore at the one timeЃЌ Flossie declared.
ЁЁЁЁThe boysЃЌ of courseЃЌ were in the water. August Stout had not learned much about swimming since he fell off the plank while fishing in Meadow BrookЃЌ so that out in the waves the other boys had great fun with their fat friend.
ЁЁЁЁ"And there is Nettie PrenticeЃЁ" exclaimed NanЃЌ suddenlyЃЌ as she espied her little country friend looking through the crowdЃЌ evidently searching for friends.
ЁЁЁЁ"OhЃЌ NanЃЁ" called NettieЃЌ in delightЃЌ "I'm just as glad to see you as I am to see the oceanЃЌ and I never saw that beforeЃЌ" and the two little girls exchanged greetings of genuine love for each other.
ЁЁЁЁ"Won't we have a perfectly splendid timeЃП" declared Nan. "DorothyЃЌ my cousinЃЌ is so jollyЃЌ and here's NellieЁЊЁЊyou remember herЃП"
ЁЁЁЁOf course Nettie did remember herЃЌ and now all the little girls went around hunting for fun in every possible corner where fun might be hidden.
ЁЁЁЁAs soon as the boys were satisfied with their bath they went in search of the big sun umbrellasЃЌ so that Uncle WilliamЃЌ Aunt EmilyЃЌ Mrs. BobbseyЃЌ and Aunt Sarah might sit under the sunshadesЃЌ while eating lunch. Then the boys got long boards and arranged them from bench to bench in picnic styleЃЌ so that all the Meadow Brook friends might have a pleasant time eating their box lunches.
ЁЁЁЁ"Let's make lemonadeЃЌ" suggested Hal. "I know where I can get a pail of nice clean water."
ЁЁЁЁ"I'll buy the lemonsЃЌ" offered Harry.
ЁЁЁЁ"I'll look after sugarЃЌ" put in Bert.
ЁЁЁЁ"And I'll do the mixingЃЌ" declared August StoutЃЌ while all set to work to produce the wonderful picnic lemonade.
ЁЁЁЁ"NowЃЌ don't go putting in white sand instead of sugarЃЌ" teased Uncle DanielЃЌ as the "caterersЃЌ" with sleeves rolled upЃЌ worked hard over the lemonade.
ЁЁЁЁ"What can we use for cups ЃП" asked Nan.
ЁЁЁЁ"OhЃЌ I knowЃЌ" said HarryЃЌ "over at the Indian stand they have a lot of gourdsЃЌ the kind of mock oranges that Mexicans drink out of. I can buy them for five cents eachЃЌ and after the picnic we can bring them home and hang them up for souvenirs."
ЁЁЁЁ"Just the thingЃЁ" declared HalЃЌ who had a great regard for things that hang up and look like curios. "I'll go along and help you make the bargain."
ЁЁЁЁWhen the boys came back they had a dozen of the funny drinking cups.
ЁЁЁЁThe long crooked handles were so queer that each person tried to get the cup to his or her mouth in a different way.
ЁЁЁЁ"We stopped at the hydrant and washed the gourds thoroughlyЃЌ" declared HalЃЌ "so you need not expect to find any Mexican diamonds in them."
ЁЁЁЁ"Or tarantulasЃЌ" put in Uncle Daniel.
ЁЁЁЁ"What's themЃП" asked FreddieЃЌ with an ear for anything that sounded like a menagerie.
ЁЁЁЁ"A very bad kind of spiderЃЌ that sometimes comes in fruit from other countriesЃЌ" explained Uncle Daniel. Then Nan filled his gourd from the dipper that stood in the big pail of lemonadeЃЌ and he smacked his lips in appreciation.
ЁЁЁЁThere was so much to do and so much to see that the few hours allowed the excursionists slipped by all too quickly. Dorothy ran away and soon returned with her donkey cartЃЌ to take Nettie Prentice and a few of Nettie's friends for a ride along the beach. Nan and Nellie did not goЃЌ preferring to give the treat to the little country girls.
ЁЁЁЁ"Now don't go farЃЌ" directed Aunt EmilyЃЌ for Aunt Sarah and Uncle Daniel were already leaving the beach to make ready for the train. Of course Harry and Aunt Sarah were all "packed up" and had very little to do at Aunt Emily's before starting.
ЁЁЁЁHal and Bert were sorryЃЌ indeedЃЌ to have Harry goЃЌ for Harry was such a good leader in outdoor sportsЃЌ his country training always standing by him in emergencies.
ЁЁЁЁFinally Dorothy came back with the girls from their rideЃЌ and the people were beginning to crowd into the long line of cars that waited on a switch near the station.
ЁЁЁЁ"NowЃЌ NettieЃЌ be sure to write to meЃЌ" said NanЃЌ bidding her little friend good-by.
ЁЁЁЁ"And come down next yearЃЌ" insisted Dorothy.
ЁЁЁЁ"I had such a lovely timeЃЌ" declared Nettie. "I'm sure I will come again if I can."
ЁЁЁЁThe Meadow Brook Bobbseys had secured good seats in the middle carЃЌЁЊЁЊAunt Sarah thought that the safestЃЌЁЊЁЊand now the locomotive whistle was tootingЃЌ calling the few stragglers who insisted on waiting at the beach until the very last minute.
ЁЁЁЁFreddie wanted to cry when he realized that Uncle DanielЃЌ Aunt SarahЃЌ and even Harry were going awayЃЌ but with the promises of meeting again ChristmasЃЌ and possibly ThanksgivingЃЌ all the good-bys were saidЃЌ and the excursion train puffed out on its long trip to dear old Meadow BrookЃЌ and beyond.
