Ask About the Ace Salt Water System.
Purchased my second spa here. Was quiet delighted at the level of service and the low pressure to purchase. Prices were not the cheapest we seen but very fair for the product offering. We have had the tub now for about six months and are blown away by it. The different filtration system used is truly much better. We have barely had to do anything to the water and we have found our electrical bill to be roughly 75% less. Would highly advise giving them a look if you are in the market for a hot tub!!
Teresa Gave Rocky Mountain Pools and Spas five stars.
We have had our Hotspring spa for a few years. It has been awesome!!! RMPS did a great job with the sale and helping with the electrical and installation.

The following telephone numbers in Armenia are destination codes for international calls terminating in Armenia as well as the procedures for dialing internationally from within Armenia.

Dialling plan
The dialling plan is as below:

Calling Armenia from abroad
From abroad to Yerevan, regions, mobile network, Artsakh fixed telephone network and Artsakh mobile network:
   + 374 + Destination Code + Subscriber Number           (to Yerevan, regions)
   + 374 + Mobile Network Code + Mobile Subscriber Number (to mobile network)
   + 374 + 47 + Subscriber Number                         (to Artsakh fixed telephone network)
   + 374 + 97 + Subscriber Number                         (to Artsakh mobile network)

Calling from Armenia
From Yerevan, regions, mobile network and Artsakh to abroad:
   00 + Country Code + Destination Code + Subscriber Number
Calls to North America from anywhere in Armenia receive a substantial discount if preceded by a special code specific to each Armenian phone company.

For example, if one makes a call from a Vivacell-MTS phone to North America and dials 77 first, one is charged 14 AMD per minute. It is the same deal for callers from a Beeline (whether a mobile or landline) if a call is preceded by *88*.

Thus, from a Vivacell phone one must dial; 77 + 00 + Country Code (1 for North America) + Destination Code + Subscriber Number
And from a beeline phone (landline or cell) one must dial: *88* + 00 + Country Code (1 for North America) + Destination Code + Subscriber Number

Calling within Armenia and Artsakh
   0 + Destination Code + Subscriber Number

Calling Artsakh from Armenia
From Yerevan, regions and mobile network to Artsakh fixed telephone network and Artsakh mobile network:
   0 + 47 + Subscriber Number                      (to Artsakh fixed telephone network)
   0 + 97 + Subscriber Number                      (to Artsakh mobile network)

Example
An example for calling telephones in Yerevan, Armenia is as follows:
                Subscriber Number  (within Yerevan)
       0 + 10 + Subscriber Number  (within Armenia and Artsakh)
   + 374 + 10 + Subscriber Number  (outside Armenia and Artsakh)

About Gunna
When the history books open up, "Drip" will forever be associated with the meteoric and platinum rise of Gunna. Dubbed "The King of Drip" and pegged "to take over the rap world" by Interview, he generated over one billion cumulative streams and achieved one platinum and two gold certifications within a year. Now, he submerges the whole game in "Drip" on his 2019 full-length debut, Drip or Drown 2 [Young Stoner Life Records/300 Entertainment], and singles "One Call" and "Speed It Up."
Born and raised in College Park, GA, he immediately gravitated towards innovative hip-hop from the likes of OutKast, Cam'Ron, and Future. Signed to YSL Records, he famously teamed up with label boss Young Thug and Travis Scott on "Floyd Mayweather" from 2016's Jeffery. Shortly after, he dropped the seminal mixtape Drip Season. 2017 saw him serve up the sequel Drip Season 2 and Drip or Drown. He ascended to superstardom during 2018. Drip Season 3 put up unbelievable numbers, earned Drake's fandom, and garnered looks from Rolling Stone, GQ, Vogue, Complex, and more. Not to mention, he joined forces with frequent collaborator Lil Baby for the collaborative Drip Harder, which bowed at #4 on the Billboard Top 200. The project yielded the platinum Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 hit "Drip Too Hard" and gold "Never Recover" [with Drake]. He teamed up with Travis Scott and NAV for the ASTROWORLD favorite "Yosemite," Mariah Carey for "Stay Long Love You," and Metro Boomin for "Space Cadet," which they performed on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Plus, he participated in fashion shows for Pyer Moss, Off-White, and Yohji Yamamoto.

Lexus Designs First-Ever UX for the Modern Urban Explorer
National marketing campaign titled "The New Frontier" debuts dynamic, city-centric crossover
Today Lexus unveils a new marketing campaign to launch the first-ever 2019 UX, a luxury compact crossover. Originally released as a concept in 2016, the UX was deliberately designed and engineered for the city and the "modern urban explorer" — those seeking a fresh, contemporary and dynamic take on luxury driving; buyers with an imaginative lifestyle who explore, experiment and defy.
The campaign embodies the notion that cities are the new frontier of American culture — a canvas for experimentation and creativity in all corners, from new ideas in fashion, food and architecture to artistic expression. It's a place where pioneering people and ideas create the inventive and visionary; where exploration of the city is an exploration of oneself.
"The spots highlight how our new crossover reflects the city from every angle and is made to conquer today's frontiers," said Cooper Ericksen, Lexus vice president of marketing. "Combining cutting-edge craftsmanship, seamless connectivity and bold design, the UX is the perfect intersection of form and function."
"Plant a Flag," the hero TV spot, begins airing nationally today. The commercial features a modern city, a territory where progress, innovation and adventure await those who are brave enough to explore. Opening with a bold, orange crossover driving through a dark, mysterious metropolis, the camera changes perspectives and viewers realize the UX isn't driving horizontally on the road. It's driving vertically up the side of a skyscraper — revealing that the city around us is the new frontier, and the UX is the crossover crafted to conquer it. A second, complimentary TV spot, "A Different Frontier," shows how the UX wasn't just made for the city — it was made from the city. As the UX makes its way through city streets, the spot highlights how the architecture of urban environments uniquely shaped and inspired the design, technology and engineering of Lexus' newest luxury utility vehicle.
Multicultural spots were also created for Black, Hispanic and LGBTQ audiences, all directed by renowned film and music video director Joseph Kahn. "The New Renaissance" will air on TV One and BET, with targeted Prime programming. "Mission: Possible" will run across top national Hispanic networks such as Univision, CNN en Español, Telemundo, Univision Deportes and Discovery en Español. The LGBTQ digital video, "One of a Kind," will have presence on sites like OUT, Advocate, Passport, Revry, Gay Ad Network and Edge Media. Traditional and non-traditional media formats such as in-language digital, social, paid search and Connected TV will target Chinese, Korean and Asian Indian audiences, showcasing adaptations and translations of the general market creative.
The general market TV spots will air during prime time, cable, late night and sports programming, and during cultural milestones such as The Academy Awards and NFL Playoffs. Full-page color print ads will run in top-tier lifestyle, travel, wellness and auto publications, such as GQ, Food & Wine, AFAR, Real Simple, Car and Driver, and more. The UX will have strong digital presence through online videos and banners across all major social media platforms and popular sites like VICE, Bustle and Vox Media. Lexus will target on-the-go consumers with sponsored audio content on Spotify playlists and integrations within key NPR podcasts. Out-of-home placements will reach audiences in unexpected spaces such as movie theatres, airports, elevators and fitness centers in key markets.
To extend the reach of the campaign, Lexus is partnering with key media entities to produce custom content focused around the first-ever UX. Through a collaboration with Givewith and Beautify Earth, three local artists will help revamp an urban community with the development of engaging art murals around Los Angeles this January. Over the next six weeks, Bustle will release video content featuring seven women pioneers transforming their industries and cities — including Lexus UX Chief Engineer Chika Kako. A partnership with Vox Media's "Explainer" series this January will examine the ever-changing nature of city streets through product-focused videos. Lexus and VICE will produce a documentary photo series, featuring people that have taken ideas originally conceived for the great outdoors and adapted them to work in the urban landscape, inherently drawing a connection to the UX. Additional content partnerships with National Geographic and Discovery Network will launch later this month.
The UX is on sale in dealerships now. Consumers have a choice between the UX 200 and hybrid UX 250h with all-wheel drive, both available in F SPORT. For more information on the first-ever UX, click here.
Lexus' passion for brave design, imaginative technology, and exhilarating performance enables the luxury lifestyle brand to create amazing experiences for its customers. Lexus began its journey in 1989 with two luxury sedans and a commitment to pursue perfection. Since then, Lexus has developed its lineup to meet the needs of global luxury customers in more than 90 countries. In the United States, Lexus vehicles are sold through 241 dealers offering a full lineup of luxury vehicles. With six models incorporating Lexus Hybrid Drive, Lexus is the luxury hybrid leader. Lexus also offers eight F SPORT models and two F performance models. Lexus is committed to being a visionary brand that anticipates the future for luxury customers.

MARKUS KLINKO × "2000s"
Markus Klinko
Award-Winning Fashion and Celebrity Photographer,
Presents a Decade of World-Renowned Work in "2000s The Exhibition"
Mouche Gallery, Beverly Hills
Beyonce "Dangerously in Love" Album Cover (2003) by Markus Klinko All Rights Reserved 2018
Exhibition Presents June 15 through June 30, 2018
Award-winning fashion, celebrity photographer and director Markus Klinko is pleased to present "2000s", an exclusive exhibition featuring the decade's most iconic photographic images. The gallery has partnered with FujiFilm and will host several in-gallery artist appearances: Saturday, June 16th from 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm, Saturday June 23rd from 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm and Saturday June 30th, 2018 from 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm at Mouche Gallery 340 N Beverly Dr., Beverly Hills, CA 90210.
"For me, this collection goes beyond celebrity photography and more so defines a greater cultural connection. The early 2000's was a very influential time of fashion, music, and entertainment that we are seeing resurface today. Being able to capture it photographically gives us a window into our past and it how it has helped form our future." – Markus Klinko
Klinko and his subjects
Throughout the years, Markus Klinko has become one of the most recognizable celebrity photographers across the globe. For his upcoming exhibition, "2000s", Mouche Gallery has assembled a collection of famous images from his archives. The collection depicts a variety of pop culture milestones that have truly defined the decade of the early 2000's. Highlighted works include: Beyonce's Dangerously in Love album cover; a series of Mary J. Blige album covers documenting her meteoric rise to superstardom; and images from Klinko's wildly successful David Bowie Unseen international exhibition. With these works and more to see, Klinko can be credited for capturing some of the most legendary moments in each of his subject's careers.
David Bowie "Heathen" Album Cover (2002) by Markus Klinko Ó All Rights Reserved 2018
Klinko's works were recently displayed in a New York Subway station with a large-scale photographic installation and interactive displays celebrating the late, great David Bowie. The installation was unveiled earlier this month and runs until May 13. It coincides with the opening of Bowie Is – an exhibition celebrating the musician's contribution to popular culture – at the Brooklyn Museum.
The centerpiece of the takeover was an installation that stretched across 30 metal 'L beams' and was seen at either end of the station from steps leading down to the platform. It features black-and-white photographs of Bowie as the Thin White Duke – a persona he adopted in the mid- 1970s and taken by Masayoshi Sukita and Markus Klinko.
INSTALLATION NYC SUBWAY 2018
As David Bowie's and Iman's photographer for over 15 years, Klinko's client list reads as a who's who of Hollywood royalty. Other notable pop culture icons that will be featured in the exhibit include: Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Kim Kardashian, Naomi Campbell, Kelis, Pharrell Williams, Kanye West and more.
"Mouche Gallery in Beverly Hills is honored to present this exhibition in collaboration with FUJIFILM North America Corporation, and is thrilled to add Markus Klinko to its prestigious roster of internationally acclaimed photographers. We look forward to continuing the tradition of featuring museum quality art and photographs at the forefront of culture." – Keiko Noah, Gallerist & Principal: Mouche Gallery
Made possible by FUJIFILM North America Corporation, "2000s" will feature a rare retrospective collection of select cameras and lenses used by Klinko to photograph these images and will be installed at Mouche Gallery. As one of the earliest adopters of digital post-production, Klinko pioneered a style that widely influenced trends in current fashion and celebrity photography. Klinko credits his usage of the FUJIFILM GX680III, a 6x8cm medium format system, in conjunction with FUJICHROME PROVIA 100F for the vibrant palette and exceptionally high resolution of his work. In 2001, Klinko also started shooting with the FUJIFILM FinePix S1 Pro, the early predecessor of the current line of the FUJIFILM X Series and GFX system. A previously unseen series of new images, taken in 2018 with the FUJIFILM GFX medium format mirrorless system, will be unveiled on June 14th, featuring re-emerging signature '00s staples, connecting his works from past and present. All of Klinko's works to be featured in "2000's" were created with FUJIFILM cameras and/or film products.
Given the exhibition's fashion and celebrity culture focus, thirteen of Klinko's most celebrated images will be sold via Paddle8 (http://www.paddle8.com/auction/cfda) to benefit the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Foundation to help support its programs dedicated to fashion education and professional development.

ABOUT MARKUS KLINKO:
Markus Klinko is an award-winning, international fashion/celebrity photographer and director, who has worked with many of today's most iconic stars of film, music, and fashion.
Klinko has photographed Beyonce, Lady Gaga, David Bowie, Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, Kanye West, Anne Hathaway, Kate Winslet, Will Smith, Eva Mendes, Kim Kardashian, Naomi Campbell, and Iman. His editorial clients include Vogue, GQ, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar, and Interview. Brands such as Lancôme, L'Oréal Paris, Nike, Hugo Boss, Anna Sui, Pepsi, Skyy Vodka, and Remy Martin have hired Klinko to create advertising campaigns. His campaign for Keep A Child Alive raised over one million dollars for children with AIDS in just 3 days.
Born in Switzerland of French, Italian, Jewish, and Hungarian descent, Klinko spent his early years training to become a classical harp soloist. He studied at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris. Later, Klinko signed an exclusive recording contract with EMI Classics, as well as a management contract with Columbia Artists Management. He received the Grand Prix de Disque for his recording of French harp music, with members of the orchestra of the Paris Opera Bastille. Klinko performed in recitals and as a featured soloist with symphony orchestras around the world. He was also regularly featured in such publications as Vogue Italia, Vanity Fair, GQ, The New York Times, Madame Figaro, Stereo Review, and Ongaku no Tomo.
After a hand injury, Klinko decided to become a fashion photographer and retired from his international concert and recording career. During that time, he met Indrani, who later became a regular collaborator in her role as his studio's digital post production artist and photo editor.
Isabella Blow discovered Klinko's work while at the London Sunday Times and commissioned cover stories from the emerging photographer. Around the same time, Ingrid Sischy, at Interview magazine hired Klinko for various shoots. Iman and David Bowie followed, giving the up and coming photographer a chance to photograph them for their respective book (I am Iman) and album covers (Heathen).
From there, he went on to create some of the most iconic album covers of his time, including Beyonce's Dangerously in Love, and Mariah Carey's The Emancipation of Mimi.
Many of Klinko's famous celebrity photographs can be seen in his coffee table book ICONS (Perseus). Lincoln Center in New York presented an art exhibit showcasing many prints from the book and since, art galleries and museums in Europe (Opera Gallery, Monaco) and the USA (National Portrait Gallery, Washington) have featured his work.

Electric Pussycat
Electric Pussycat is a psychedelic bar lounge with major Austin Powers' undertones. Situated near the Glendale Galleria on 103 E. Broadway. It's definitely bringing 'SexyBack' into LA County as we have all been thirsty for something novel, something exotic. Outfitted with a full bar (upstairs/downstairs), kitchen, designated smoking area, brilliant lighting/sound system and small stage.
Once again BNG (the makers of Supperclub Los Angeles × Project LA) has struck gold as this semi-ghost bar adorns high-end decor: floating chairs w/ tube lights, swirl murals throughout and a firefighter pole (which descends from the second level).
It's Groovy Baby!

Hendrik Giesler's Travel Tips
Hendrik Giesler became an overnight sensation during the 2014 World Cup. During the finals, Germany vs. Argentina, the camera crossed to a young man in the stadium with a German flag on his cheeks and the sexy young man caught the attention of all Germany. Everyone wanted to find the mystery guy, and the hunt began. Soon the global power of the internet found him. Unaware what was happening online, Hendrik woke and was surprised to find 45,000 new followers on Instagram (by end of day it had grown to 53,000) and had media contacting him relentlessly. Someone mistakenly thought Hendrik was the mystery #Germanboy and told the world.
"My photo was in all of the media; TV, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Tumbler. It was so overwhelming as I grew up in a village of 500 people. All of a sudden the world knew who I was and where I lived," shared Hendrik.
Hendrik was nineteen, living a humble life in a small German town. A young guy, who at the time was volunteering to help people living with disabilities. "I worried I needed to change my name because it was just too much attention too quickly."
However this crazy media blitz became the birth of his career as a digital influencer. Three years later, when he was in Melbourne, Australia, he decided to build off the buzz and share his travel and fashion experiences on Instagram. His globetrotting lifestyle helped him to become very popular on Instagram with over 158,000 engaged followers.
The young influencer has travelled to over 26 countries so far, which includes Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Morocco, Cape Town, Marrakesh, USA, France, Spain, Bali, Thailand, Netherlands, Denmark, Poland, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France, Croatia, Montenegro, England, Norway, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Columbia. His fans turn to him for travel, fashion, and beauty advice daily. Take a look at Hendrik's guide to traveling in style!
How to pack the essentials and travel in style
We all want to travel in style so packing the fashion essentials is vital when exploring the world as you not only want to have the right outfits for the weather, you also want the right outfits to match various occasions.
You should keep in mind that you need space in your suitcase for shopping. You can't travel to an exotic location without buying at least one local item! I have found some incredible items to add to my wardrobe from traveling so you want to leave enough space for shopping.
Packing the fashion essentials
Since I'm traveling a lot for work, I always have to think about my outfits and what to pack, as I need the right mix of work clothes vs. casual clothes. In the past, I have made mistakes of over-packing. When I traveled to Thailand, I stuffed my suitcase with all of the T-shirts and shorts I owned; yet in the end, most were left unworn in my suitcase as I only wore my favorite pieces and didn't have space for anything else. So I quickly learned: LESS is MORE. I realized that it's better to bring a FEW of your favorite essential pieces like a pair of blue jeans, black shorts and a couple of basic white shirts along with a good pair of sneakers. The goal here is these few items will complement all sorts of outfits and styles.
When packing, a bit of outfit planning can make life easier: a pair of sunglasses and your favorite accessories like watches can jazz up every outfit. When deciding what to bring along with me on vacation, I have used my past Instagram posts as inspiration. Since taking photos is a large part of my travels, I look at previous posts to help me pack, and I make sure I bring a few picture perfect pieces so I know I have the clothes when it comes time for my signature posts.
For example, before I went to Marrakech, I made sure that I saved all of my favorite photos on Instagram, so I packed the right outfits for the perfect Insta pic. Since social media is such a big thing for us millennials, I wanted to make sure that my outfit is on point. Marrakech is known for its desert brown and orange colors, so I planned my outfits accordingly.
One small thing I always pack and it has saved my life…SUNSCREEN! Make sure you pack sunscreen. You don't want to get burned. From my experience traveling to so many unique locations, it is hard to estimate the strength of the sun. The sun is sexy, but it does crazy damage to your skin. It can literally ruin your vacation if you are not prepared. I say this because I've had a hard time finding sunscreen for my skin type when I travel. Plan ahead and come prepared. It is small item but I am 24 years old, and I want to stay looking 24 years old 😉
Also, when buying your sunscreen before you leave, look into purchasing travel sizes for your everyday toiletries so you can leave them there after your holiday. Bam, more room in your luggage when you fly home for shopping.
Can you do laundry?!
If yes, it is a live saver. You can pack a lot less, but you can re-use the essentials you bring. No one knows whom you are when you travel; so re-wearing your favorite pieces are acceptable as no one notices. That said, you want them clean. My advice is to NEVER use the hotel laundry service. They charge insane prices to wash your clothes. INSANE. Just ask for the closest laundromat. Trust me, it will take one hour, but it saves you so much in the long run.
I love to travel and have traveled to over 26 countries so far this is my fashion travel advice. It is all about the preparation before leaving that ensures you travel in style and enjoy your vacation.
Over the next couple of months, he will be traveling to Morocco, Tanzania, and Egypt and give daily updates on his travel, food and fashion experiences. To see what adventures he gets up to make sure you follow him on Instagram!

Pilot plant studies are often vital for managing project risks. They can be critical when designing new industrial wastewater treatment plants or evaluating process upgrade alternatives. They are also useful for troubleshooting problems in existing wastewater treatment plants, as operating parameters can be more easily manipulated on a reduced scale.
Wastewater Futures has highly qualified staff with established research backgrounds, with hands-on process operational experience. We draw upon these skills to design, build, operate and optimise wastewater treatment pilot plants.
Unconventional oil wastewater technology evaluation: Following laboratory evaluation and concept process design, we designed, constructed and operated a pilot plant for the treatment of sour water from an oil shale process plant. The treatment process comprised an innovative combination of chemical and physical primary treatment, advanced aerobic biological treatment and membrane tertiary treatment.
Landfill leachate: A 6000 L sequencing batch reactor was designed and operated to treat a high strength landfill leachate. The pilot plant was successfully operated for high rate nitrification, which offered benefits of reduced reactor size for the full-scale application. A full-scale plant was designed and constructed based on these results.
Membrane pilot test rigs: We have our own membrane pilot plants (UF and RO) which are often used to assess the suitability of commercial membrane modules for treating specific waters. Examples include mineral process wastewater, mine water, oil shale wastewater, coal seam gas water.
Municipal wastewater sludge settling: Designing and operating seven 60 L sequencing batch reactors fed with municipal wastewater to optimise BNR sludge settleability. This project was undertaken onsite in Canberra.
Mineral processing wastewater technology evaluation: A pilot plant was established based on information obtained in a prior laboratory study for the treatment of a unique mineral processing wastewater. The pilot plant verified the use of an aerobic MBBR process to nitrify and denitrify, and improve sludge maintenance in a series of reactors.

Jharkhand CM constitute committee to probe into Ranchi violence, internet services suspended, prohibitory order at sensitive places
Sunday, 12 June 2022, 01:27:16 IST
RANCHI—JHARKHAND STATE—11 JUNE 2022—Security personnel patrol as deserted look of roads during Curfew clamp down after violence erupted on late Friday following controversial remarks over Prophet Muhammad by two BJP leaders in Ranchi on Saturday, June 11, 2022. Photo by--Rajesh Kumar Photojournalist C/o Sen Studio, 15-Purulia Road, Ranchi-834001, Jharkhand Mobile +91 9939889897 [email protected]
Ranchi, June 11: Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Saturday ordered a high-level probe into the deadly violence that rocked Ranchi, a senior official said.
A two-member committee, comprising senior IAS officer and secretary disaster management Amitabh Kaushal and Additional Director General (ADG) of Police Sanjay Latkar, was formed to investigate the violence that left two persons dead and at least 24 people injured, said a release issued by the chief minister's office.
The committee has been asked to submit its report to the state government in a week, the release added.
Ranchi's Deputy Inspector General Anish Gupta said a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has also been set up to probe the incident.
"Three FIRs have been lodged so far. Search operations are on to arrest the persons involved in the violence," he said.
Jharkhand's capital Ranchi has been blanketed by heavy police cover as two persons succumbed to gunshot wounds sustained during Friday's protest against controversial remarks on Prophet Mohammad by suspended BJP spokespersons as Hindutva outfits called for a bandh on Saturday against the violence.
Around 2,500 police personnel, including one IG rank and DIG rank officer each, six SP rank officers, 100 DSP rank officers besides two Rapid Action Force (RAF) battalions, have been deployed in sensitive areas of Ranchi city informed Jharkhand police IG (Operations) Amol V Homkar .
"Twelve policemen and 12 others have been injured in the violence. One policeman has sustained bullet injuries. The funeral of the two deceased will take place during the day. Internet services will remain suspended till the situation normalises.
"An FIR has been registered and some people have been detained. We are keeping a strict vigil on the situation," he said.
Two critically injured people were brought to state-run Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) between 11.30 PM and midnight on Friday with bullet injuries and they died during the course of treatment, an official of the medical establishment said.
"One of the deceased, identified as Mohammad Mudassir Kaifi (22) had gunshot wounds on his head, while the other, identified as 24-year-old Mohammad Sahil, had received bullet injuries on his neck. Post-mortem reports stated that both died due to gunshot wounds. Both were residents of Ranchi," he said, adding that eight others are in the ICU.
Over two dozen people were injured in the clashes that rocked the state capital on Friday, officials said.
Thirteen of the critically injured people were admitted to RIMS, doctors there said.
"The injured include CRPF personnel and policemen," the RIMS official said.
Prohibitory orders under Section 144 of the CrPC have been clamped in 12 police station areas, including Sukhdev Nagar, Lower Bazar, Daily Market and Hindpidi, of Ranchi district besides Hazaribag and Ramgarh districts to prevent flareups, officials said.
Internet has also been suspended in Ranchi district, they added.
The situation is under control and is being monitored. CCTV footage and videos are being scrutinised, the officials said.
Ranchi's Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Surendra Kumar Jha was admitted to a hospital with head injury and later released.
Besides head, he also received injuries in other parts of his body after he was hit by stones, they said.
Some Hindutva outfits have called for a Ranchi bandh on Saturday, asking traders to keep their shops shut in protest against the violence.
Condemning the violence, Governor Ramesh Bais has asked Chief Minister Hemant Soren to take strict action against those involved.
The violent protesters have been demanding the arrest of suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma and expelled leader Naveen Jindal for their controversial remarks on Prophet Mohammad.

Everyone knows about Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia and San Sebastian. Very few people have heard of this amazing part of Spain, located on the East Coast.
Dan and I don't normally take group tours, or do anything that is planned extensively. I really mean, we rarely plan anything. We march to our own band, and play it by ear.
One of the many perks of attending TBEX travel blogger's conference, is that bloggers are treated to some amazing and meticulously planned FAM trips, both before and after the conference. A FAM (familiarization) trip is what tour operators and hotels do to entice Travel Agents to sell their properties.
Since today's Travel Bloggers are the go-to's for information about places to see, and things to do all over the world, we are now the ones, to whom these brand reach out.
Out of the dozens of trips from which to choose, Dan and I chose a three day excursion called "Feel The Water" which took us to the Terres de l'Ebre region of Catalunya, a little known area that boasts its naturally preserved territory.
Although we have visited Pamplona, Vitoria Gasteiz, and several other areas in Spain, we'd never heard of this region.
It would include things we would not normally include in our plans.
It turned out to be more fun and educational than any of our "let's just play it by ear" vacations.
Our hotels, meals, transportation and activities were all carefully chosen and meticulously planned for us.
We started off on a super comfy HIFE motor coach complete with wi-fi (happy bloggers), looking forward to visiting an area of Spain about which we knew nothing!
Alberto Folch was our tour guide for the day, and he was super informative about the region to where we were headed.
First stop: L'Ametlla de Mar to swim with the largest tunas in the world.
Thanks to the tourism boards of San Carlos de Rapita, Catalunya, and Tarragona for putting it all together.
Who knew there were so many things to do in Terres de L'ebre?
In my next several blog posts, I will share each of the incredible portions of this trip, or click on the links above!

Mindy Kaling's 'Velma' Vaporized On Rotten Tomatoes By Fans and Critics
'Velma' is an adult animated comedy series telling the origin story of Velma Dinkley, the unsung and underappreciated brains of the Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. gang.
By Matt McGloin / Thursday, January 12, 2023 - 5:05PM Thursday, January 12, 2023 - 5:06PM
The new take on Scooby-Doo and Velma starring Mindy Kaling as the titular character is now out on HBO Max, and as expected (saying that a lot lately), it's getting vaporized by fans on Rotten Tomatoes.
And not only are the fans really not liking what they are seeing but the critics are also not too favorable of the show that reimagines Velma as an East Asian character.
Presently, Velma has a 50% Rotten Tomatoes Score from the critics and a 12% Audience Score. Check out the reactions below.
Mindy Kaling blasted fans for Velma response
The show also hasn't come without controversy as previously Mindy Kaling blasted fans for their response to changing the character.
"Hopefully, you noticed my Velma is South Asian," she told the crowd in New York City when the first look was unveiled. "If people freak out about that, I don't care."
Mindy Kaling also appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers in July.
"When it was announced that I was going to do the voice of Velma, people were very supportive and happy on Twitter. And so I felt great," she explained. "Then it was announced a month ago that the Velma character would be reimagined as South Asian. And people were not happy. There was a lot of, like, 'So not Velma!' Those kind of tweets. 'Not the classic Velma that I'm always thinking about.'"
Kaling continued, "First of all, I didn't know that she elicited such strong reactions in either direction. I just couldn't understand how people couldn't imagine a really smart, nerdy girl with terrible eyesight who loved to solve mysteries could not be Indian. There are Indian nerds. It shouldn't be a surprise to people, but people are like, 'No, no, no.' But it made me think, 'OK, we've got to be really careful with this character,' which we will be because we love her."
What do the Velma reviews on Rotten Tomatoes say?
What do the critics think?
Regarding Rotten Tomatoes, check out what the negative reviews from the critics:
"Sporadically witty but ultimately rather tedious, the HBO Max comedy leverages more than a half-century of name equity to yield an animated prequel that's definitely not for kids, meddling or otherwise." – CNN
"It's been done before, and much better, using unique takes on the gang that maintained their essence, so Velma is never as groundbreaking as it seems to think it is. More than that, these characters are just really unpleasant to spend time with." -Variety
"All the pieces of a great Scooby spin-off are here, so why does this not come together? The answer: a combination of uneven humor, too little mystery, and a core misunderstanding of Velma herself." – Mashable
"A hodgepodge of ideas that never connect, especially in its humor. The comedy lands when it veers into absurdism with visual gags and everything Howerton's Fred says. What falls flat is the frustrating meta approach it takes." – Paste Magazine
"Too much meta humor, not enough heart." – THR
"While Velma certainly suffers in comparison to HBO Max's Harley Quinn, the series' problems are entirely its own, perhaps the biggest one being a failure of tone and balance, as there's too much jammed into this series and no clear focus." – Consequence
What do the fans think of Velma?
Here are some reactions from fans who aren't too happy with the series:
– This show is an absolutely terrible idea. Instead of creating OC, the writers decided that they would remove the main character from a universe and then re-skin all of the remaining characters. They even changed the personalities. It's a sad attempt at appealing to wider demographics while not actually putting in the effort or being creative. The humor is meta and annoying; nothing about it is actually funny. Overall, this show is a disgrace to a franchise that is attempting to ride to coattails of in a strangely insulting way.
– I just watched the first two episodes and unfortunately that is time all never get back. I don't even really want to recount what I've watched as that would take more effort than what was clearly put into the show by the writers. Save yourself the morbid curiosity and skip this one.
– Velma is a typical TV show where the producers wanted to make a series just for themselves, and still being hostile with their target audience, not to mention the change in personality and appearance of all the characters which could even be justified by a good script but in this show was certainly done in the worst possible way. This universe and these characters can indeed be adapted for an adult audience in an extraordinary way but it certainly wasn't this time, unfortunately.
– This is how you destroy a beloved IP, by giving creative freedom to people who dislike/disregard what most people enjoy about the series to begin with. The humor, characters and tone are consistent with Netflix's Big Mouth, but not Scooby-Doo. There is plenty of other quality movies and shows released within the past decade that celebrate this series. This unfortunately will only appeal to people who think pandering is representation.
– If you went to a grade school and asked 3rd graders to create their own show where they are the king/queen and everyone else around them is inferior this is the show. Jinkies this was bad. Can you make characters more stereotypical in any way? When jokes are centered around these stereotypes they telegraph themselves. Mindy simply should have created a self named show and character that solves mysteries.
– Horrible, just horrible. Why was this made, and for who? A Mindy Kaling ego project, maybe she had a childhood fantasy to be Velma, but other than that? It's just upsetting and ruining a childhood favorite of many.
– It's a shame! Totally shame. This is not Velma.. This is not Scooby Doo Gang!
– A bunch of bad jokes thrown together does not make it funny, but annoying instead. Quantity over quality rarely work.
– Nope, this ain't it babe; this is a pathetic excuse of a series and in no way comes close to the Scooby Doo series of my childhood. It's not funny or charming in any way, shape, or form and I won't even thank you for trying because apparently you didn't.
– The show may actually be good if it had better jokes, my main problem with though is the fact that uses Scooby Doo popularity to people see it even though the it changes in the most crucial ways from the original material (Didn't really care for the characters swaps but shaggy is to much of a pop culture icon to be changed so much from what we are used to see)
– As others have stated, the characters are no longer the same. They act completely different. Along with their bad jokes and stereotypes, this was a bad show.
– Velma is an absolute disaster. As a fan of the original series, I was deeply disappointed by the way the creators took one of my favorite shows and completely massacred it. The show tries to incorporate a meta, self-referential type of humor, but it falls flat on its face. The attempts at humor are weak and often obnoxious, and the characters are taken out of the original universe and turned into an extreme parody that doesn't fit at all. The writing is bad and not entertaining, and the jokes are bland and unappealing. The poor attempt at humor comes across as if it was written by a 12 year old boy with his friends. It's unclear what audience the show is even trying to appeal to. Overall, this show is legitimately unwatchable, and I would advise anyone to avoid it at all costs. Endless cringe.
