The annual Chennai Book Fair organised by the Book Sellers and Publishers Association of South India (BAPASI), is back, with the dates of the event being announced. According to sources, the 38th edition of the exhibition is scheduled to be held from 9 January to 21 January at the YMCA Physical Education College Ground in Nandanam.
The applications to the book stalls, which are expected to be over 500, are yet to be issued. Sources say that the 2015`s event would consist of fewer stalls as compared to previous years, as the width of the walkway is to be increased, and that there would be one less row of book booths.
The 12-day long exhibition is regarded as the second largest book fair in the country with books of various authors and publishing houses on offer. Over the years, the event has been widely praised for its visitor-friendly arrangements which include adequate first-aid options, sanitary and parking facilities and refreshment counters.

History[edit]
The First Madras Book Fair was organized in Madras between December 14 and December 24, 1977, by The Booksellers and Publishers Association of South India(BAPASI), an association with major publishing companies of Tamil Nadu, especially Madras, & South India.[2][3][4] The first Madras Book Fair had 22 stalls and was held at the Madrasa-I-Azam school.[4] The first six book fairs were successful mainly due to the efforts of K. V. Mathew of BI Publications, who was responsible for the growth of the book fair in its early years.[4] Mr. Mathew has also organized an annual book fair for students.[4] The Student Book Fair, however, hasn't been as successful as the Chennai Book Fair.[4]
The first four editions of the book fair were held in the Madrasa-I-Azam school. In 1981, the book fair moved to the YMCA grounds in Royapettah, Chennai. The 1982 edition was organized at the Drive-In restaurant. The book fairs gradually rose in popularity. At the 12th Madras Book Fair held between December 22, 1989, and January 1, 1990, Tamil translations of WHO publications were put on sale.[5] The success of the Chennai Book Fair prompted BAPASI to start similar book fairs at Udagamandalam, Thiruvananthapuram, Pondicherry and Tiruchirapalli.
The early editions were held in the last weeks of December and ended in the first week of January in order to coincide with the Christmas-New Year holidays. However, in the late nineties, the fair was moved to mid-January to coincide with the Pongal festive season.
Recent editions[edit]
The 24th Chennai Book Fair experienced a spurt in the number of Tamil language publishers the majar role played by the then President Chandrasekar Higginbothams, Secretary Alliance Sreenivasan and the then committee members. Of the 180 publication houses who participated in the book fair, 80 were Tamil publication houses, a remarkable increase since the 23rd fair in which there was only one stall devoted to Tamil publications.[6] The book fair celebrated its silver jubilee in 2002 coinciding with the 50th anniversary celebrations of BAPASI. The fair was held for 15 days instead of the usual 11-day affair.[7] The 26th book fair was held between January 9 and January 19, 2003 and had a total of about 272 stalls.[8] 300,000 people visited the 26th book fair.[9] The revenue was estimated to over Rs. 6 crores.[9] The 27th book fair, inaugurated by the then Tamil Nadu Education Minister N. Semmalai and held between January 9 and January 19, 2004, had over 310 stalls, including 10 stalls allotted for state government departments, with over 200 publishers from all over India participating in it.[9] The 28th book fair was inaugurated by Chennai mayor S. P. Thiagarajan on January 7, 2005.[10][11] The 29th book fair was inaugurated on January 6, 2006 by K. Kalimthu, Speaker of Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly and was made of 375 stalls. The fair lasted till the 16th of January.[12] In 2007, due to traffic congestion and the need for more space for the stalls,[13] the venue for the annual book fair was changed from Quaid-e-Milleth Women's College to St. George' School in Kilpauk.[14] The 2007 book fair had a total of 474 stalls.[13] and for the first time, featured works of the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, M. Karunanidhi, on an extensive scale.[15] Over 600,000 people visited the 30th book fair.

The World's First Iron Bridge
A cast iron arch bridge that crosses the River Severn.
Opened in 1781, it was the first major bridge in the world to be made of cast iron. Its success inspired the widespread use of cast iron as a structural material, and today the bridge is celebrated as a symbol of the Industrial Revolution.
In 1934 the bridge was designated a scheduled monument and closed to vehicular traffic.

A visit to the Weoley Castle medieval ruins. It is located off Alwold Road in Weoley Castle.
The site entrance was surrounded by these green fences, and the gate was padlocked. So had to take my photos from here (but the gate from Alwold Road was open).
Weoley Castle is the remains of a fortified manor house located in the Birmingham district of Weoley Castle, a primarily residential area, in the English West Midlands. Owned by Birmingham City Council and administered as a community museum by Birmingham Museums Trust, it is a Grade II listed building and a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
The archaeological evidence suggests a Norman foundation for the site which was surrounded by a moat and bank topped by a timber palisade.

Footings and foundations of a fortified manor house. Sandstone with 6 towers
and a deep moat. These works date from 1264 when Roger de Somery was licensed
to crenellate his manor house. A survey of 1422 gives a detailed plan. Fragments
of early C13 wooden buildings have been discovered, indicating early use of
both horizontal and vertical weatherboarding.

With my frequent travel schedule and the dryness of June in Arizona, I have been continually building up my hodgepodge irrigation system, which is now a timer on the main, 3 "Y" branches, and maybe 6 different hose pieces. On segment goes to another splittler, with the main going to a soaker hose in the vegetable garden, and the other side a hose I can turn on to water manually elsewhere.
Picture here is the new "Y" off the other main branch; again with a turned off slit to another long hose to water things in the back manually, but the open one has an old hose with holes in it to water the fruit trees and new Strawberry plants.
I'm doing 3 waterings a day for about 30 minutes. Water pressure is not great here, so its a slow watering

The schedule at the lower left shows the train we rode. The northbound trip ran pretty much as displayed on the schedule. The return trip was about 6 hours late. Mixed trains are operated primarily for freight and schedules published for passengers are really only for advisory purposes. Many railroads who operated mixed trains preferred not to publish a printed schedule but rather just say "consult agent."
What was scheduled to be a training exercise for Camp Guernsey Firefighters and a Wyoming Army National Guard UH 60 Black Hawk helicopter crew, switched gears into a real-world firefighting effort, May 8. The firefighters planned to conduct a controlled burn on the north training area and the helicopter crew was going to practice water bucket drops by dipping water out of Guernsey State Park, flying it to the fire and dropping it on the target. Plans changed when lightning struck a tree early that morning in a remote area of the training center and the CGFD was called to respond. The helicopter crew got the message and responded to the new location and made five bucket drops helping the ground crew contain the blaze to about one acre.

Pevensey Castle is a medieval castle and former Roman Saxon Shore fort at Pevensey in the English county of East Sussex. The site is a Scheduled Monument in the care of English Heritage and is open to visitors. Built around 290 AD and known to the Romans as Anderitum, the fort appears to have been the base for a fleet called the Classis Anderidaensis. The reasons for its construction are unclear; long thought to have been part of a Roman defensive system to guard the British and Gallic coasts against Saxon pirates, it has more recently been suggested that Anderitum and the other Saxon Shore forts were built by a usurper in an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to prevent Rome from reimposing its control over Britain.
Anderitum fell into ruin following the end of the Roman occupation but was reoccupied in 1066 by the Normans, for whom it became a key strategic bulwark. A stone keep and fortification was built within the Roman walls and faced several sieges. Although its garrison was twice starved into surrender, it was never successfully stormed. The castle was occupied more or less continuously until the 16th century, apart from a possible break in the early 13th century when it was slighted. It had been abandoned again by the late 16th century and remained a crumbling, partly overgrown ruin until it was acquired by the state in 1925.
Pevensey Castle was reoccupied between 1940 and 1945, during the Second World War, when it was garrisoned by units from the Home Guard, the British and Canadian armies and the United States Army Air Corps. Machine-gun posts were built into the Roman and medieval walls to control the flat land around Pevensey and guard against the threat of a German invasion. They were left in place after the war and can still be seen today. Pevensey is one of many Norman castles built around the south of England.

The 2012 Democratic National Convention, in which delegates of the Democratic Party will choose the party's nominees for President and Vice President in the 2012 United States national election, is scheduled to be held during the week of September 3, 2012[5][6] in Charlotte, North Carolina.
On April 3, 2012, President Barack Obama won the Maryland and District of Columbia primaries, giving him more than the required 2,778 delegates to secure the presidential nomination.[7] He had previously announced that Vice President Joe Biden would be his vice presidential running mate in his re-election bid.[8]
The first two days of the convention will be held at the Time Warner Cable Arena. The last night, September 6, will be held at Bank of America Stadium, where presumptive presidential nominee Barack Obama is expected to deliver his acceptance speech.[2] The date also caused the National Football League to move the Kickoff game, normally on a Thursday, to Wednesday, September 5, to avoid a conflict.[17] This in turn caused the DNC to move Joe Biden's vice presidential acceptance speech, normally held the day before the presidential acceptance speech, to Thursday, before Obama's speech, to avoid a conflict with the NFL game.[18]
