An Austrian woman was killed along with a second female
An Austrian woman was killed along with a second female foreigner, whose
nationality was still being verified."Above it was a battery, maybe there was a
short circuit that affected the fuel tank.An explosion on a speedboat in Bali
left two foreigners dead and 18 other tourists injured Thursday, sparking
dramatic scenes as rescuers rushed to haul stunned and bloodied holidaymakers
off the vessel. However fears have also been growing in Indonesia that radicals
who have headed to fight with the Islamic State group in the Middle East could
encourage supporters back home to mount attacks, or may do so themselves on
their return. Last year, dozens of tourists were injured when small explosions
hit a ferry crossing between Bali and the neighbouring holiday island of
Lombok."The British embassy in Jakarta said it was providing assistance to
British nationals affected by the explosion."Based on the testimony (from
passengers) and from what I saw China aquarium
heater Manufacturers at the scene, the explosion came from the fuel tank,"
he said. The bomb squad was initially deployed to the scene on an island that
has suffered bloody Islamist militant attacks in the past, but authorities
quickly ruled out an attack..Dazed passengers, many covered in cuts and bruises,
were taken to medical centres on the Indonesian holiday island after the blast,
with TV footage showing them being carried on stretchers to ambulances and lying
in hospital beds. The explosions, determined to be an accident, were thought to
have come from the fuel tank of the ferry, which was carrying 129 passengers,
most of them tourists. It appeared to be an accident with the explosion
occurring in the fuel tank.In January, a gun and suicide bomb attack claimed by
ISIS in the capital Jakarta left four attackers and four civilians dead.The
Indonesian archipelago of more than 17,000 islands is heavily dependent on ferry
services but the industry has a poor safety record.The speedboat, which was
carrying some 30 foreign tourists and four crew, had just left Padang Bai port
in Bali on Thursday morning en route to the holiday island of Gili Trawangan
when the blast occurred.Sudarso said he believed a malfunctioning battery near
the fuel tank may have caused the accident. Two German citizens were injured
while nationals from Briton, France, Italy, Portugal, Ireland and Spain were
also among the passengers."The explosion happened five minutes after the boat
departed," local police chief Sugeng Sudarso told AFP, adding the vessel had
been about 200 metres (yards) from the port.Indonesia has a poor maritime safety
record and regularly suffers fatal boat accidents but serious incidents around
Bali — which attracts millions of foreign visitors each year — are rare.One
woman died from head injuries soon after the blast while the Austrian woman died
later in hospital, he said

Then he took the boy near Vidyavihar
Bhagwat is a class 12 pass and unemployed. He then asked for a ransom of Rs 2
lakh from the boy’s father who is a rickshaw driver.The boy’s father turned out
to be a rickshaw driver who could little afford to pay a ransom of Rs 2 lakh for
the safe release of the boy. He procured a gun and a rod from two of his
friends.The Ghatkopar police has arrested the 32-year-old accused on Wednesday.
On Tuesday evening, he was sitting in the garden near the school of the boy.
According to the Ghatkopar police, Umesh Bhagwat, a resident of Kurla, kidnapped
the boy after he left school for the day near Ghatkopar. So he planned to kidnap
children from English medium schools. We arrested him on the spot. He had a gun
and an aluminium rod on his person. We traced it and found the location to be
Vidyavihar. Seeing that the boy had come out and no one had picked him up for 10
to 15 minutes, Bhagwat planned to kidnap him.
Then he took the boy near
Vidyavihar and got his father’s number from his ID card. The boy was
talkative.Victim&Threaded Rod
Din039;s father turned out to be rickshaw driver who could little afford to
pay ransom. He also threatened to kill the boy if the amount was not
given.Bhagwat was arrested under # IPC sections and will be in police custody
till January 10. He is a rickshaw driver in Ghatkopar and it was strange that he
was asked for a ransom. Victim's father turned out to be rickshaw driver who
could little afford to pay ransom.Crime PI of Ghatkopar, Yakub Mulla, said, "The
boy’s father approached us immediately. Bhagwat thought the boy’s father was
rich as he was studying in an English medium school. Mumbai: A man who had
kidnapped a six-year-old boy from an English medium school hoping to make a
quick buck off his ‘rich’ father was in for a shock. We then told the father to
call back the kidnapper telling him that he was ready to pay up the ransom.
Accordingly, we laid a trap near the Vidyavihar station and once we saw the boy,
we attacked the kidnapper from all sides. He was searching for a small job for
the past one year. We took the PCO and mobile number from which the kidnapper
had made the calls to the rickshaw driver. He then called and asked for the
ransom," said senior PI Vyankat Patil. The incident happened on Tuesday evening

There was something reassuring
The indoor swing from yesteryear’s in rose and teak wood with brass chains, adds
comfort and elegance to any space. Quirk it up with throws, pillows, rugs and
the shimmer of brass or copper for the pop. Quirk is decidedly fun, if handled
with elan.Helping customers translate their fantasies into design reality is
always a challenge and one that is most exciting to a designer. Having said
that, often intended design does look like the casualty it was meant to
avert!Helping customers translate their fantasies into design reality is always
a challenge and one that is most exciting to a designer. Cheers!The writer is an
interior designer and director at Sugar My Space, Studio SMS. But, quirk managed
well can be just as inviting and pleasing. To add to that mystique, thread on
silken linen strips in lieu of tacky bead curtains and boho the heck out of the
place, albeit snazzily. But as a designer, one unabashedly refrains from going
the whole hog with the unusual requests, only after debunking some whims and
homing in on universal truths., paints, texturing, highlights and lighting to
give them pizzazz.Walls lends themselves as canvases to etch along memories.
It
needn’t have to conjure up images of over-the-top goth or an unsavoury visual
from Fifty Shades of Grey! If that is your intent, then so be it. There’s so
much inspiration doing the rounds when it comes to creating ‘me’ spaces, and
here’s a cheeky yet unique take on the interiors spiel. But go primitive if you
will, with caution, with perhaps quirky frames around motley feral prints. Stay
tuned for more as we roll out the design rug over many more brews… help is here
before you commit headlong to misadventure with your space. Scandi Chic in warm
pines and monochromatic tones will stage the rage forever.Canoe on the ceiling
with pendant lights suspended from it for extra oomph and swag. They lend a
genteel touch to the surroundings. Flowing fabric on the walls or ceiling and
perhaps silk shades for custom-made lamps are great ways to quirk it up while
keeping the place stylish.We have barely made a dent in the scope of quirk in
design. Things often happen by accident rather than by design.
The classic white
and black combo is here to stay.As requests go, they do take on a life of their
own with the extraordinary overtures. Most times in life and love!Flip it on its
head when it comes to your private spaces too. Never going out of style.
Graduating finishes and colours and textures to keeps it basic and artistic.
While there may be rule books that iterate the importance of order in spaces,
nowhere does it say that spaces can’t be snug and safe with layered floor rugs,
throws and cushions and perhaps a gorgeous canopy around your favourite armchair
in your bedchamber, to provide the cosiest of nooks.Go Andy Warhol on tiles! Or
substitute with handmade floral or a line-drawing collection of Athangudi tiles.
Quirk it up with unique beaded links instead of the usual metal chain and soften
edges with basic upholstery perhaps with a coat of paint to make it a cozy spot
to curl up in. Personally, they ought to be restricted to clothing only, and
with much discretion. With oodles to play with viz. Restored period furniture,
with a coat of varnish or paint with Athangudi tiles nestled in the gaps; or
place an old pillar wedged with colourful tiled sections, in an opened up
doorway to create a partition with a quirky difference.Throwback to the times
when we grew up draping on sheets around the furniture and making ourselves a
cozy, warm teepee while pretending to play mom and pop. Not many expect to see a
boat on the roofing, so that stands to exact some oohs for certain."I’m a
designer, and I think if you work in fashion, you have to give people fantasy,"
said the famed Christian Louboutin. They are uber quirky. My personal take,
monochrome never ceases to please. Or splash onto the headboard or the
droplights to quirk up the space without it looking like you just returned with
your kill from the savannah! Avoid making your home look like a souvenir store!
Or a pet store for that matter!! So do it with finesse and dont hesitate to run
it by someone that may give you an honest opinion.
There was something
reassuring about the hurriedly assembled Din976
Suppliers wigwam, that felt toasty and intriguing, even mysterious to
welcome our puerile capers. Delightfully, life in monochrome is an oft-requested
theme. The perfect meld of fantasies with the natural order of life must be
maintained at all times.Another successful breakaway is with the likes of a
buttoned down French-style footstool and a chic brass and glass coffee table or
a classic chesterfield with a stylish bookshelf.My all-time favourite in wall
finishes remains the quintessentially elegant, untreated, exposed brick and
concrete walls. Cluster it up or align along the bow with trimmings along the
edges with fairy lights to quirk up the room.As with many things, turning things
about does give one a new perspective. Find fantasy in quirky themes for wall
frames… if its geisha prints then go cherry blossoms and pencils sketches in
funky backgrounds and frame them over the stretch.For more chic and cheeky,
bring back the traditional Oonjal, with a twist
