A Brookline, Massachusetts, firefighter accused of beating a man who took too long to order food from a popular taqueria Sunday night has been arrested and placed on administrative leave.
Joseph Ward, 37, of Dorchester, appeared in court Tuesday morning to answer to charges of assault and battery. He was released from custody on personal recognizance.
"I've never seen unbridled anger like that in my life," said 53-year-old Jeffrey Gagnon.
Gagnon says he feels lucky to be alive after he says he was assaulted outside Anna's Taqueria in Brookline Sunday night by a man later identified as Ward. According to a police report, Ward was in line waiting to order at the taqueria and asked the customer in front of him to hurry up.
The Brookline Board of Selectman has voted to fire firefighter Joseph Ward III, who has pleaded not guilty to charges that he allegedly beat Jeffrey Gagnon and threw a bottle and burrito at him on Oct. 11 at Anna's Taqueria.
"The guy hit me with a bottle and then he was on the ground pounding me," Gagnon said.
Words were exchanged, then Ward followed the man outside and called him "a homeless (expletive)," according to the report.
Gagnon says he's not homeless and he didn't hear the insults. He said the line was so slow he left without food, and that's when he says Ward came outside and attacked him from behind.
"As I was leaving that, he hit me in the head, brought me down on the ground, started hitting me, straddling me and then he threw a burrito at me that he ordered and waited so long for that he got so mad about," Gagnon said.
Prosecutors say there is surveillance video from outside the taqueria corroborating Gagnon's claims, but Ward's defense attorney stressed that only shows half the story.
"Which is why I requested some evidence from inside that restaurant where we believe that the altercation started," said Ward's defense attorney, Benjamin Urbelis.
Gagnon says he got stitches and his face is fractured in three places, but he feels lucky it wasn't worse.
"I was like this could be it man, this could be it," Gagnon said.
Ward was released on his own recognizance and ordered to stay away from the victim and witnesses. He is due back in court November 16th.
Ward remains on administrative leave from the fire department pending the outcome of the investigation. The department would not specify if that was paid or unpaid leave.
"As you know, Mr. Ward has been placed on administrative leave pending the investigation. I cannot provide you with anything more than that at this time as I have not been able to review the reports or speak with Mr. Ward," the chief said in a statement Monday, adding that he hoped to speak with ward Tuesday.
Town Administrator Mel Kleckner said the town was also aware of Ward's arrest and declined to comment further.

Q: What is the difference between "knickers" and "panties"? What is the difference between "knickers" and "panties"?
I've read the difference is that "knickers" used in the UK and "panties" is used in US. Is this the only difference?

A: As well as the UK/US divide, there's the matter of collocation. We speak of panty liners and not knicker liners, while on the other hand we speak of knicker elastic and not panty elastic.

A: That's what I've always assumed. Wikipedia seems to agree:

In British English, and in places such as the UK, Ireland, South
  Africa, India, and occasionally in other Commonwealth nations such as
  Australia and New Zealand, panties are often referred to as knickers.
  The term knickers is not generally used in the US and Canada, where
  the term "panties" is usually favored. In the UK, pants is also used,
  but can mean men's or women's underwear. This should not be confused
  with the North American usage of pants which are called trousers in
  the UK.

A: Also knickers , in the US at least, is short for knickerbockers.

A: Panties are used by advertisers in the U.S. to sell women's underwear. Women don't call their underwear panties.
Knickers is a British term for underpants..unless used to refer to old fashioned style clothing that went down to your knees.

A: In the U.S. "knickers" refers to "knickerbockers," or "shorts" for MEN that are OUTERWEAR.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knickerbockers_%28clothing%29
"Panties" refers to "underwear," and specifically to WOMEN's underwear.

Johannes Fabian (Glogau, 19 de maio de 1937)  é professor emérito de Antropologia na Universidade de Amsterdã . Sua pesquisa etnográfica e histórica se concentra em movimentos religiosos, linguagem, trabalho e cultura popular na região mineira de Shaba, no Zaire (atual República Democrática do Congo). Sua obra teórica e crítica aborda questões de epistemologia e história na antropologia, notadamente o influente livro O Tempo e o Outro (1983), que se tornou um clássico no campo da antropologia.

Vida
Johannes Fabian nasceu na cidade alemã de Glogau (que hoje fica na Polônia ). Começou seus estudos universitários em Bonn em 1956, e depois mudou-se para a St. Gabriel Mission House em Mödling, Áustria, para estudar teologia. Suas experiências na Áustria o levaram a estudar antropologia em Munique, antes de fazer mestrado (1965) e doutorado (1969) na Universidade de Chicago.

Depois de receber seu PhD, assumiu compromissos em uma série de universidades: em 1968 na Northwestern University em Evanston, Illinois; em 1973 na Universidade do Zaire ; em 1974 na Wesleyan University em Middletown, Connecticut ; e finalmente mudou-se para a Universidade de Amsterdã em 1980, onde foi professor e presidente do departamento de antropologia cultural até sua aposentadoria em 2002. Durante este tempo, ele teve compromissos de visita em Bonn, Colônia e Paris.

Realizações
Sua investigação etnográfica centra-se nos movimentos religiosos no Zaire e no Congo. Fabian é mais conhecido por seu livro O Tempo e o Outro: Como a Antropologia Faz Seu Objeto (1983), um clássico no campo da antropologia que mudou a forma como os antropólogos pensam sobre sua relação com as pessoas que estudam e é um importante trabalho de crítica pós-colonial dentro da antropologia. Como a sinopse do livro coloca, o livro é "uma crítica epistemológica radical da escrita antropológica" (George Marcus, University of California, Irvine) e "Time and the Other é uma crítica das noções de que os antropólogos estão 'aqui e agora'. ', seus objetos de estudo estão 'lá e então', e que o 'outro' existe em um tempo não contemporâneo ao nosso." Segundo Ronaldo Lobão,Em Time and The Other, Fabian desenvolve um poderoso argumento para mostrar que a construção do Outro, o objeto da Antropologia, foi realizada à custa da manipulação da temporalidade, ou seja, tanto pelas formas como o Tempo é percebido nas diversas sociedades humanas, quanto em suas implicações recíprocas. Seu trabalho de 1996, Remembering the Present: Paintings and popular history in Zaire, foi feito em colaboração com o artista congolês Tshibumba Kanda-Matulu.

Something Big Has Begun In Mexico Earthquake End of The World Signs For North America Beginning.
Strongest Mexico Earthquake September 8,2017.
The world has gone absolutely MAD. Between all of the crazy natural disasters with Hurricane Harvey, Irene, then back to back earthquakes. Things are starting to get very, very strange for the world. Of course natural disasters are normal, but I don't remember a time when we have seen them one after another. What do you think.


The present proposal for a Research Topic in Frontiers in Marine Science aims at collecting a broad range of analyses on ecological, biological, social, economic and legislative issues and case studies related to the application of the EU Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) in the Mediterranean and Black Sea.
The reformation of the EU CFP (EC regulation 1380/2013) aims at implementing a community system for conservation of marine biological resources and for the management of fisheries exploitation in order to guarantee ecological, economic and social sustainability. Based on past experiences and failures, the CFP envisages the application of the precautionary principle and the progressive implementation of an ecosystem-based approach for fisheries management, through a series of activities that include adoption of conservation measures (art. 7), delineation of multiannual plans (art 8), reduction of unwanted catches through landing obligation (art. 15), regionalization of the CFP (art 18), transferable fishing concessions (art 21), promote sustainable aquaculture (art. 34). Overall, the CFP should ensure that, by 2020 at the latest, fishing mortality rates are set to levels which will rebuild or maintain stocks above biomass levels that could produce the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) also on the basis of best scientific advice, data collection and financial supports.
Application of the CFP in the Mediterranean and Black Sea, however, faces several challenges due to large ecological, economic, political and institutional differences across the basin. For instance, the challenge of CFP application is exacerbated by the legal/administrative situation, with large areas outside national/EU jurisdictions and fleet capacities highly different on opposite shores of some sub-basins. Moreover, many exploited stocks are in poor state, while for many others the knowledge is still limited. Different history of fishing and development, as well as monitoring and data availability, result in situations that hamper sustainable management. Actually, no quotas or TACs (total allowable catch) have been established in the area due to the multi-species nature of the fisheries that are regulated by control of the fleet capacity as proxy of fishing effort. Furthermore, the widespread small scale fisheries, difficult to control and manage, and the unquantified recreational fisheries are often arguments for high uncertainty on assessments.
The intent of the Research Topic is thus to collate analyses related to the application of the principles included in the CFP in Mediterranean and Black Sea, including assessments of current status, scenario analyses, visions of best solutions, evaluation of critical hot spots and effects of regionalization of fisheries management. Theoretical studies and working applied examples, as well as critical situations and success stories, are welcome. Contributions are expected from all different actions envisaged by CFP (e.g. landing obligation, regionalization, etc), and covering different dimensions (biological, technical, ecological, economic, social and institutional arrangements, including legislative and regulation topics). The Research Topic aims at tackling from local to transboundary issues and solutions and is expected to provide broad vision of problems together with important practical solutions for CFP application in the Mediterranean and Black Sea.

No more Baby Rivers | Legislation, policy change for pregnant detainees
Janess Ann J. Ellao November 17, 2020 Baby River, persons deprived of liberty, Reina Mae Nasino
Reina Mae Nasino mourns the death of her daughter. (Photo courtesy of Kapatid)
MANILA – Today marks the 40th day since the death of Baby River, daughter of a political prisoner Reina Mae Nasino. The term cruel is an understatement to describe how the mother and child were separated and how it revealed serious gaps if not flaws in the country's justice system.
The Bureau of Jail Management and Penology reasoned out that it acted on the "best interest of the child" when it opposed Nasino's appeal to allow her newborn to stay with her inside prison.
The BJMP seems to have a different definition on the "best interest of the child." A Philippine law on juvenile justice defines the child's best interest as the totality of circumstances that are essential to a child's survival, sense of security, or conditions that are encouraging to his or her physical, psychological, and emotional development.
Per a memorandum back in 2010, the BJMP states that the infant may be allowed to stay with the mother for a period of "not exceeding one month but may be extended by the Warden based on a written medical recommendation of the jail nurse or a qualified medical personnel and the best interests of the child" within the scope of domestic laws.
In support of Nasino's motion, Dr. Jose Fabella Memorial Hospital's Department of Newborn Medicine appealed before authorities to allow Nasino and her baby to stay together, wherever possible.
Fabella's honorary consultant, gynecologist-obstetrician Sylvia dela Paz, summed that the best interest of a child boils down to the baby's basic needs: food and warmth. Separating children from their mothers can pose dangers to their well-being, said Dela Paz.
The court junked Nasino's motion and ordered that River, then less than two months old, be separated from her mother, thus depriving the newborn the benefits of breast milk.
The United Nations Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners and Non-Custodial Measures for Women Offenders states that women prisoners will not be discouraged from breastfeeding unless there are specific health reasons. Separating mother from child, the UN says, should also be based on "individual assessments and the best interests of the child within the scope of relevant national laws."
As early as 2002, the World Health Organization has long said that breastfeeding in unparalleled when it comes to nourishing babies, said lactation expert Nona Castillo. This, she added, eventually served as basis to consider breastfeeding as a right that babies and even toddlers should be able to avail of.
Pre-natal and post-natal care
While the BJMP 2010 memorandum states that jail facilities shall afford pregnant inmates with "medical services that the jail can offer at its infirmary" and that it will "exert efforts to construct separate rooms" for pregnant women and nursing mothers, the realities on the ground show that conditions apt for them remain very much wanting.
The Public Attorney's Office, in a paper presented before the 2015 International Corrections and Prisons Association in Melbourne, Australia, said that in a survey conducted in five detention facilities, 98 percent said pregnant women were "not provided with good and orderly sleeping quarter" and nearly half said no special care is afforded to pregnant inmates.
Dela Paz stressed the importance of pre-natal and post-natal care for pregnant women. Prior to giving birth, at least four check-ups are necessary. While telemedicine can be an option for jailed women, particularly those without serious complications, doctors are able to provide more sound diagnosis if they can physically examine a patient.
Post-natal care, on the other hand, should be provided to patients up to four weeks after giving birth, if there are no complications or infections arising.
Dela Paz also warned of postpartum depression for new mothers as they are deprived of their normal surrounding, presence of loved ones, and are living in cramped spaces.
In a webinar hosted by the Health Action for Human Rights, Dela Paz said Nasino was not provided adequate health care while pregnant, resulting in the low birth weight of her baby. This despite the Fabella hospital being only less than a hundred steps away from Nasino's detention facility.
Temporary release for pregnant women, mothers
But if jail is truly not in the best interest of both new mother and child, Dela Paz suggested releasing them temporarily. Under the current Philippine law, the Recognizance Act of 2012, a person in custody who cannot post bail due to abject poverty may be released on recognizance to the custody of a qualified member of the local government where the accused resides.
However, as it stands, the law does not cover those charged with crimes punishable by death or life imprisonment, as in the case of Nasino and other women political prisoners who gave birth while in detention in recent years, per human rights lawyer Kathy Panguban of the National Union of Peoples' Lawyers.
Asked why the State should be compelled to do so, Dela Paz said, "let us not forget that women PDLs are humans. And the fetus growing inside them is a future citizen. Do you want them to be compromised just because health care has been inadequate? They are humans."
For Gabriela Women's Party Rep. Arlene Brosas, the rights and welfare of women detainees are far from the Duterte administration's priorities.
Last year, Gabriela Women's Party co-authored with Zamboanga del Norte Rep. Isagani Amatong House Bill 5285 or the Dignity for Women Deprived of Liberty Act, which defines the rights of women deprived of liberty in jails and correctional facilities. The bill has been referred to the House Committee on Justice and later to the committees on women and gender equality.
However, Brosas told Bulatlat that no committee hearing has ever been held to look into this.
Among the women's rights and welfare defined in the bill are the right of pregnant women not to be restrained, in any manner, during medical examinations; transport to hospital to give birth, during labor, and immediately after birth. It also stipulates that women deprived of liberty shall have the right to stay with her child inside correctional facilities until the baby turns one year old.
Women who gave birth while in detention will also be provided with postpartum care, including physical and mental health wellness.
The child may stay with the mother if still deemed advantageous, otherwise she or he will be placed under the care of her or his relatives or other authorities in child care if no relative can come to take care of the child. Continuous communication will be allowed, including the child's periodical visits to her or his detained mother.
All these remain in drawing board from now. Enacting this bill into law might help in ensuring that there would be no more Baby Rivers.

PENTECOST / HOLY TRINITY (50 Days after Easter )
50 Days after Easter is the feastday Pentecost (Whitsunday), also called Holy Trinity. The Holy Ghost feastday is on the following day.
Name day of everyone called Trayko, Trayan, Trayana.
It is a church feast that commemorates the Descent of the Holy Ghost upon the Apostles, fifty days after the Resurrection of Christ - on the ancient Jewish festival called the "feast of weeks" or Pentecost. It also has the name of Whitsunday, because of the white garments which were worn by those who were baptised during the vigil; while the name Pentecost ("Pfingsten" in German), comes from the Greek word for "the fiftieth" (i.e. fiftieth day after Easter).
The Feastday of Pentecost occurs 50 days after the celebration of the Glorious Resurrection. It commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit on the heads of the Apostles, infusing them with the mandate to go forth into the world and preach the Gospel. It is celebrated as a major feastday in all of the ancient Apostolic Churches of East and West, and is considered the birthday of the Church. In the Eastern Orthodox Church, however, the feast does not stand alone.
On Pentecost the Eastern Orthodox Church also celebrates the Feastday of the Holy Trinity and on the Saturday preceding it is "Zadoushnitsa", i.e. one of the five Saturdays throughout the year specially dedicated to the remembrance of the dead.
How and why these three feasts came together at the same time is not known. These three feasts are flexiblei. e. their date is determined by the date of Easter (Resurrection Sunday) which varies from year to year. Fortuitously, rather than by design, the three feasts occur more or less in late spring or early summer, a time when agricultural peoples, are most concerned about preparing the fields and sowing the crops.
The ancient Slavic cults always involved Mother Earth, the forests, the trees, the grass, the flowers and the waters and the spirits which inhabited them. One cult, believed to have derived from ancient Greek and Roman sources, called ANTHESTERIA in Greek, and ROSALIA in Latin, is called RUSALIYA in the Slavic languages. The spirits associated with this cult are called RUSALKI, which in Christian times were considered the souls of children and others who died unbaptized, or who drowned or who committed suicide or were executed. Such spirits dwelt in the forests or the waters and could be either benevolent or harmful to people, depending on mood.

At last, a voice speaking loudly what I've been thinking!
Prof Aidan Halligan has been variously employed as Consultant in Fetal Medicine through to Director of Clinical Governance for the NHS, Deputy Chief Medical Office for England and now Executive Chairman of Elision Health, an enterprise formed to accelerate reform and leadership in healthcare organisations.
The misery frequently expressed in hospital coffee rooms around the land is that staff feel unable to deliver the care they want because of the constraints of budget and currently of delivering targets. Whilst achieving the targets have value in themselves; reducing waiting lists, reducing waiting time in Casualty etc it does not take account of or allow for delivery of the highest quality of care.
Sadly too many inspirational and influential leaders are numbed and inured to the effects of the current culture willing to simply go along with all that has happened because they no longer believe they can change anything. I don't believe there ever was a more perfect examples of a self fulfilling prophecy.We know that alongside quantity there must be quality of care.
What this country and our NHS needs now is effective and strong Clinical Leadership. It needs members of the caring professions to speak out, to influence and to begin to change things because we care, because it is our Health Service and because we know different.
Do you care? Do you see the problems? Then do something, anything, but do something about it; your country needs you.


Before you start thinking Dr. Thompson has some kind of double life based on the title of this post, let me explain. I recently read an article titled "The Secret Lives of Doctors" and so many of the confessions made by the author, who is an opthalmologist, fit our favorite facial plastic surgeon to a tee. I can attest to the truthfulness of these claims as I've worked for Utah Facial Plastics for a number of years.
Due to such shows as Dr. 90210 and Nip/Tuck, the public often conjures a life of glory, money, and luxury when they think about a 'plastic surgeon'. The persona of a typical plastic surgeon in the media is a slick, arrogant doctor that is highly demanding. The reality we all experience with Dr. Thompson couldn't be further from this misconception. First time patients often find his down-to-earth bedside manner so refreshing and all patients appreciate his genuine care and concern for their well-being.
To give you an idea of what this facial plastic surgeon, as well as many other physicians experience day in and day out, here's what medicine often looks like from where the doctors stands as similarly described in this post from kevinmd.com.
Dr. Thompson often cancels root canals and oil changes and skips children's soccer games when he knows his patients need them.
Dr. Thompson often changes his vacation schedules when patients schedule elective procedures several weeks down the road, so as not to inconvenience the patients.
Dr. Thompson motors through clinic, surgery, and hospital visits with a full bladder, an empty tummy, and dry mouth to make sure he's on schedule and keeping up with the days demands.
Dr. Thompson is just as mortified as you are miffed when our schedule blows up in our faces and we keep you waiting for more than 10 minutes, let alone for more than 20 minutes, despite the reasons.
When Dr. Thompson is not in clinic or surgery with his patients, he is thinking about them. From worrying about health conditions of those undergoing reconstructive surgery to ensuring the best possible outcome for all patients, he is concerned about the well-being and experiences of all his patients.
When Dr. Thompson takes time off, it's often to give of his time and resources to children in under-developed countries. He has been traveling to South America at least twice a year constructing ears for children born with a congenital deformities for over 15 years.
And just as the author of this post feels, he is grateful at the end of the day that all went well with patients, his staff is happy and fulfilled in their positions, and that his family is safe and healthy.
The article referenced, written by Dr. Starla Fitch, originally appeared in the Huffington Post.
I am constantly searching online for tips that can benefit me.

Sweden | New Changes Announced To The Voting In Melodifestivalen 2019
The broadcaster for Sweden, SVT, has announced in the last 24 hours that they plan a big change to the voting system for this years Melodifestivalen.
The producers have announced that the demograph of the voters will help determine the overall result. This was previously done in the contest when the jury groups split by age determined the winner in earlier Melodifestivalen's. Now, this system will be introduced using the public vote.
How It Will Work?
There will be seven age groups who will cast their vote through the official app. There will also be an eighth group, that will consist of voters who have opted to vote via phone. This year however, SMS voting has been scrapped due to the low number of votes received in previous editions.
These eight groups will then award points to their favourite songs based on the scoring system 1, then 2, then 4, 6, 8, 10, and finally 12. The semi final shows will see a maximum of 43 points that can be awarded by each age group.
The final will be similar. However, the scoring system will be based on the scale 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and then 12. This means a maximum of 58 points can be awarded be each group.
This year will only see a smaller eight international juries award points on the same scale. The Andra Chansen round will see each age group award one point to their favourite song in each duel. There will be eight points up for grabs ( 1 per group), and in the event of a tie, the song with highest number of votes cast via the app, and telephone will advance to the final.
When each song is being performed live, there will be a heart that will appear in the corner of the screen. This will beat faster when more votes are being cast, and will change colour to indicate which group are casting the most votes. This way it will encourage the public at home to vote more for their favourite song or songs. The eight colours will reflect the eight groups, and they are:
• Green: 3–9 years • Turquoise: 10–15 years • Blue: 16–29 years • Purple: 30–44 years • Pink: 45–59 years • Red: 60–74 years • Orange: 75+ • No colour : Phone
Europe's favourite national final will begin on Saturday February 2nd 2019, and will culminate in the final on Saturday March 9th 2019. The full list of shows can be seen below:
Semi-Final 1 – Gothenburg – February 2
Semi-Final 2 – Malmö – February 9
Semi-Final 3 – Leksand – February 16
Semi-Final 4 – Lidköping – February 23
Andra Chansen/Second Chance – Nyköping- March 2
Final – Stockholm – March 9
Do you think the new voting system will make the show more exciting? Do you like this system? Please tell us your thoughts in the comments below.


Recently, China's first report on meal replacement powder was co-released by institutions including Guangdong Rural E-Commerce Association and South China University of Technology.
The report indicated that the technology bar of meal replacement powder is relatively low, and the standardization of the product is relatively low. On the one hand, the low technology bar has led quite a lot of companies entering the market. On the other hand, one company can hardly produce meal replacement products that fit all different needs from consumers.
The meal replacement powder market in China started recently. However, the growth rate of recent years is above 30% annually. It is expected that the market value would grow from the current 6 billion yuan to 18 billion in 2023.

Tell your friends to forget Biafra, Buhari to Igbo corpers
Eniola Akinkuotu and Ihuoma Chiedozie
President Muhammadu Buhari has urged the National Youth Service Corps members of Igbo extraction to tell their colleagues that there is no hope of having a sovereign 'Biafran State'.
Buhari said this when over 100 corps members serving in Katsina State came to visit him at his Daura residence on Tuesday.
A statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr. Garba Shehu, said the President urged the corps members to do everything to ensure the unity of Nigeria.
Speaking specifically to corps members from the south-eastern states, the President said, "Tell your colleagues who want Biafra to forget about it."
The President said as a young soldier during the Civil War between 1967 and 1970, he fought hard to ensure the unity of the nation.
He, therefore, maintained that Nigeria would never disintegrate under his watch.
Buhari added, "As a military commander, I walked from Degem, a border town between the North and the East, to the border between Cameroun and Nigeria. I walked on my foot for most of the 30 months that we fought the Nigeria-Biafra Civil War, in which at least two million Nigerians were killed.
"We were made by our leaders to go and fight Biafra not because of money or oil, because oil was not a critical factor then, but because of one Nigeria.
"Thus, if leaderships at various levels failed, it was not the fault of the rest of Nigerians who had no quarrel with one another. So, please tell your colleagues that we must be together to build this country. It is big enough for us and potentially big enough in terms of resources.
"Those who work hard will earn a respectable living. I have seen this country, I fought for this country and I will continue to work for the unity of this country."
Buhari hailed a former military Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon, for inaugurating the NYSC scheme in 1973.
He said the scheme had helped to foster national integration by exposing young people to the uniqueness and cultural diversity of Nigeria.
The President said, "I asked for those from the other end of Nigeria because I very much appreciate the NYSC scheme and whenever I see General Gowon, I always thank him for that.''
In his remarks, Mr. Egbewumi Adebolu, the Corps Liaison Officer in Daura, thanked the President for the honour of receiving them and making their stay in Daura memorable.
He said the youths strongly believed in the programme of the President to reduce unemployment and create jobs for more Nigerians.
Adebolu thanked the President for his personal gifts of cows, bags of rice and cash to corps members in the community for Sallah celebration.
But reacting to the directive of the President to the corps members, the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra said Nigeria had never been a nation.
MASSOB spokesman, Comrade Samuel Edeson, who spoke in an interview with one of our correspondents, insisted that all Igbo, including those NYSC members that met Buhari, were Biafrans.
"Every Igbo man is a Biafran. Biafra has come to stay and Buhari should know that 95 per cent of Igbo want Biafra.
"We are not going to take up arms against the Nigerian government but we will make the country ungovernable until we actualise Biafra.
"There is no way we will forget Biafra and there is nothing the government will do that will make us to give up the struggle.
"Even if they continue to oppress and intimidate our members, we will continue to push ahead with the struggle," he said.
The MASSOB spokesman advised Buhari to call a meeting of all ethnic nationalities where Nigeria's future would be discussed.
He said, "Rather than telling the NYSC members to tell their people to forget Biafra, he should call the Biafra agitators and other ethnic nationalities to a roundtable meeting to discuss how Nigerians would continue to live together."
Also reacting to the development, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo said Buhari should restructure the country, if he really wanted the pro-Biafra agitation to go away.
The President of the Ohanaeze Youth Council, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, also said Buhari should set free all detained Biafra agitators, particularly Ben Onwuka, the leader of the Biafra Zionist Movement.
He said, "Buhari should ask himself why the Biafra agitation resurrected during his tenure. He should also explain what he meant by 95 per cent and five per cent.
"The people of the South-East are angry and there is hunger in the land. There is a total collapse of infrastructure in the zone; federal roads are no longer passable.
"The South-East zone has the highest number of unemployed youths in the country. Those NYSC members that went to see him will be unemployed tomorrow.
"The only solution to the agitation for Biafra is restructuring. Ohanaeze Ndigbo is not calling for secession but we are calling for restructuring. The North-West has seven states but the South-East has only five; it is not acceptable.
"If Buhari fails to restructure the country, we are afraid that those calling for secession may succeed so if he really wants Igbos to forget Biafra, he should restructure the country."

Film Review – Dirt Music (2019)
March 24, 2021 · by Eddie	· in Eddie's Space, Film Reviews, Film reviews: Australian, Film reviews: Drama.	·
Title – Dirt Music (2019)
Director – Gregor Jordan (Two Hands)
Cast – Kelly Macdonald, Garret Hedlund, David Wenham
Plot – In the picturesque surrounds of Western Australia, the unhappy in love Georgie (Macdonald) begins a relationship with the mysterious and downtrodden Lu (Hedlund), as the pairs history and past traumas shape their moving forward.
"Dirt music, is anything you can play on a verandah or porch, without electricity"
Considering the last Tim Winton cinematic adaptation before Dirt Music was 2017's memorable and effective Breath, hopes were high that Gregor Jordan's talent-filled Western Australia set romantic drama would be more of the same, tapping into local audiences affections as well as those overseas who were seeking a new bout of Australian drama to fill their needs.
Sadly this was not to be.
Receiving a tepid at best response upon first showings way back in 2019, Jordan's star-studded local film is a complete and utter failure of a feature that is loosely strung together by a cold and emotionless "romance" between Kelly Macdonald's lonely Georgie, whose tiresome relationship with David Wenham's barely used fisherman Jim leads her to seek out an affair with Garret Hedlund's mysterious ex-muso Lu, a man whose past is holding him back from moving into the future.
Famous for his way with words, Winton's works have always been well-regarded in book circles and there's potential somewhere deep down in this tale of lost souls finding a way through thanks to each other but neither Jordan, whose proven before he can handle a good film with the likes of Two Hands and Buffalo Soldiers standing out in his C.V or the usually fantastic scribe Jack Thorne (a long term Shane Meadows collaborator and the man responsible for adapting hit TV series His Dark Materials) manage to ever get Dirt Music out of first gear as the film loses its audience early on to a procession of instances and occurrences that happen without an ounce of build up or ground work to lead into them.
For an Australian film, Dirt Music is clearly a more prestigious local production than most, the West Australia backdrops make for some stunning eye candy and deserve a better film to live in and the talent on screen is of the highest order but all main actors get very little too work with and potentially even feel miscast with the usually reliable Macdonald struggling to get much happening (including a very odd Oz accent, very different to her native Irish tongue), Wenham getting nothing of substance too do and the up and down Hedlund once more appearing to be lost in a feature even though you know there's a great actor hiding within him somewhere.
It makes one wonder why more local talent couldn't be used also. No doubt its easier to sell a film overseas with more recognisable international faces but surely there's actors capable of performing well in such a film, especially when no one was appearing to offer quality control to a film that has no soul, focus or imagination present within it.
The locations are nice. That's about as much as you could say in the way of good things about this sadly D.O.A Australian affair. Wasting source material from one of our countries most respected writers and the talents of three capable performers, Dirt Music strikes a dull note from the moment it starts until the moment it ends on a whimper.

On the Make by David Grazian Book Summary:
It's nighttime in the city and everybody's working a hustle. Winking bartenders and smiling waitresses flirt their way to bigger tips. Hostesses and bouncers hit up the crowd of would-be customers for bribes. And on the other side of the velvet rope, single men and women are on a perpetual hunt to score - or at least pick up a phone number. Every night of the week they all play the same game, relentlessly competing for money, sex, self-esteem, and status. David Grazian's riveting tour of downtown Philadelphia and its newly bustling nightlife scene reveals the city as an urban playground where everyone dabbles in games of chance and perpetrates elaborate cons. Entertainment in the city has evolved into a professional industry replete with set designers, stage directors, and method actors whose dazzling illusions tempt even the shrewdest of customers. Public relations consultants, event planners, and a new breed of urban hustler - the so-called ''reality marketer'' who gets paid to party - all walk a fine line between spinning hype and outright duplicity. For the young and affluent, nightlife is a sport - a combative game of deception and risk complete with pregame drinking rituals and trendy uniforms. They navigate the dangers and delights of the city with a combination of wide-eyed optimism and streetwise savvy, drawing from their own bag of tricks that include everything from the right makeup and costume to fake IDs, counterfeit phone numbers, and wingmen. As entertaining and illuminating as the confessional stories it recounts, David Grazian's On the Make is a fascinating expos of the smoke and mirrors employed in the city at night.
Chicago on the Make
Chicago on the Make by Andrew J. Diamond Book Summary:
"Effectively details the long history of racial conflict and abuse that has led to Chicago becoming one of America's most segregated cities. . . . A wealth of material."—New York Times Winner of the 2017 Jon Gjerde Prize, Midwestern History Association Winner of the 2017 Award of Superior Achievement, Illinois State Historical Society Heralded as America's quintessentially modern city, Chicago has attracted the gaze of journalists, novelists, essayists, and scholars as much as any city in the nation. And, yet, few historians have attempted big-picture narratives of the city's transformation over the twentieth century. Chicago on the Make traces the evolution of the city's politics, culture, and economy as it grew from an unruly tangle of rail yards, slaughterhouses, factories, tenement houses, and fiercely defended ethnic neighborhoods into a truly global urban center. Reinterpreting the familiar narrative that Chicago's autocratic machine politics shaped its institutions and public life, Andrew J. Diamond demonstrates how the grassroots politics of race crippled progressive forces and enabled an alliance of downtown business interests to promote a neoliberal agenda that created stark inequalities. Chicago on the Make takes the story into the twenty-first century, chronicling Chicago's deeply entrenched social and urban problems as the city ascended to the national stage during the Obama years.
On the Make by Brian P. Luskey Book Summary:
In the bustling cities of the mid-nineteenth-century Northeast, young male clerks working in commercial offices and stores were on the make, persistently seeking wealth, respect, and self-gratification. Yet these strivers and "counter jumpers" discovered that claiming the identities of independent men—while making sense of a volatile capitalist economy and fluid urban society—was fraught with uncertainty. In On the Make, Brian P. Luskey illuminates at once the power of the ideology of self-making and the important contests over the meanings of respectability, manhood, and citizenship that helped to determine who clerks were and who they would become. Drawing from a rich array of archival materials, including clerks' diaries, newspapers, credit reports, census data, advice literature, and fiction, Luskey argues that a better understanding of clerks and clerking helps make sense of the culture of capitalism and the society it shaped in this pivotal era.
On the Make by Margo Hoornstra Book Summary:

But when Madison unknowingly lands in a desperate killer's cross-hairs, Adam puts his career—and life—on the line to save her. Can he protect her from a deadly threat and win her heart?

Media and the Make-Believe Worlds of Children
Media and the Make-Believe Worlds of Children by Maya Gotz,Dafna Lemish,Hyesung Moon,Amy Aidman Book Summary:
Media and the Make-Believe Worlds of Children offers new insights into children's descriptions of their invented or "make-believe" worlds, and the role that the children's experience with media plays in creating these worlds. Based on the results of a cross-cultural study conducted in the United States, Germany, Israel, and South Korea, it offers an innovative look at media's role on children's creative lives. This distinctive volume: *outlines the central debates and research findings in the area of children, fantasy worlds, and the media; *provides a descriptive account of children's make-believe worlds and their wishes for actions they would like to take in these worlds; *highlights the centrality of media in children's make believe worlds; *emphasizes the multiple creative ways in which children use media as resources in their environment to express their own inner worlds; and *suggests the various ways in which the tension between traditional gender portrayals that continue to dominate media texts and children's wishes to act are presented in their fantasies. The work also demonstrates the value of research in unveiling the complicated ways in which media are woven into the fabric of children's everyday lives, examining the creative and sophisticated uses they make of their contents, and highlighting the responsibility that producers of media texts for children have in offering young viewers a wide array of role models and narratives to use in their fantasies. An enclosed CD provides full-color images of the artwork produced during the study. This book will appeal to scholars and graduate students in children and media, early childhood education, and developmental psychology. It can be used in graduate level courses in these areas.

Chicago by Nelson Algren Book Summary:
Ernest Hemingway once said of Nelson Algren's writing that "you should not read it if you cannot take a punch."

George Eliot and Nineteenth-Century Science
George Eliot and Nineteenth-Century Science by Professor in the Department of English Literature Sally Shuttleworth,Sally Shuttleworth Book Summary:
This study explores the ways in which George Eliot's involvement with contemporary scientific theory affected the evolution of her fiction. Drawing on the work of such theorists as Comte, Spencer, Lewes, Bain, Carpenter, von Hartmann and Bernard, Dr Shuttleworth shows how, as Eliot moved from Adam Bede to Daniel Deronda, her conception of a conservative, static and hierarchical model of society gave way to a more dynamic model of social and psychological life.
Boys on the Make
Boys on the Make by Shirley Bell Book Summary:
Writing has become a big part of my life, even though that was not my idea the first time I sat down in front of my computer. For some reason, I had this longing to write. After taking a book out of the library on writing, I decided to give it a shot. In this short manuscript, I was able to outline some of the factual things that happened in my family, things I am hoping will help young adult Christians and non-Christians, because life is getting harder with each generation. There are short stories, not only from my life but also from the Bible, that show we can have spiritual guidance to keep us safe from the evil of this world, still showing there is no one perfect who has walked this earth except Jesus.

The Girl With The Make-Believe Husband
The Girl With The Make-Believe Husband by Julia Quinn Book Summary:
While you were sleeping... With her brother Thomas injured on the battlefront in the Colonies, orphaned Cecilia Harcourt has two unbearable choices: move in with a maiden aunt or marry a scheming cousin. Instead, she chooses option three and travels across the Atlantic, determined to nurse her brother back to health. But after a week of searching, she finds not her brother but his best friend, the handsome officer Edward Rokesby. He's unconscious and in desperate need of her care, and Cecilia vows that she will save this soldier's life, even if staying by his side means telling one little lie... I told everyone I was your wife When Edward comes to, he's more than a little confused. The blow to his head knocked out three months of his memory, but surely he would recall getting married. He knows who Cecilia Harcourt is—even if he does not recall her face—and with everyone calling her his wife, he decides it must be true, even though he'd always assumed he'd marry his neighbor back in England. If only it were true... Cecilia risks her entire future by giving herself—completely—to the man she loves. But when the truth comes out, Edward may have a few surprises of his own for the new Mrs. Rokesby.
Little House Living by Merissa A. Alink Book Summary:
From the immensely popular blogger behind Little House Living comes a motivational homemaking book, inspired by Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House on the Prairie, featuring creative, fun ways to live your life simply and frugally—perfect for fans of Ree Drummond's The Pioneer Woman. Shortly after getting married, Merissa Alink and her husband found themselves with nothing in their pantry but a package of spaghetti and some breadcrumbs. Their life had hit rock bottom, and it was only after a touching act of charity that they were able to get on their feet again. Inspired by this gesture of kindness as well as the beloved Little House on the Prairie books, Merissa found that a life of self-sufficiency and simplicity could be charming and blissful. She set out to live an entirely made-from-scratch life, the "Little House" way, and as a result, she slashed her household budget by nearly half—saving thousands of dollars a year. She started to write about homesteading, homemaking, and cooking from scratch, and over the next few years developed the recipes and DIY projects that would one day become part of her now beloved website, LittleHouseLiving.com. As whole foods became staples of the family diet, Merissa realized the dangers of putting overly processed ingredients not only into our bodies, but on or near them as well. In addition to countless delicious, home-cooked meals, she developed natural, easy-to-make recipes for everything from sunscreen to taco seasoning mix, lemon poppy hand scrub to furniture polish. With their simple ingredients, these recipes are allergen friendly and many are gluten-free. With over 130 practical, simple DIY recipes, gorgeous full-color photographs, and Merissa's trademark charm in personal stories and tips, Little House Living is the epitome of heartland warmth and prairie inspiration.

National Environmental Accounting
National Environmental Accounting by Joy E. Hecht Book Summary:
This book presents national environmental, or 'green' accounting as it has developed in Europe and other parts of the world. It introduces the most recent methods developed through the United Nations Statistical Department and other international organizations, but bridges the gap between the superficial treatment of environmental accounting in economics textbooks and environmental literature, on the one hand, and the highly technical manuals of international organizations, on the other.Joy Hecht begins with a history and introduction to national income accounting. The first part of her book explains how the environmental accounts build on the structure of the 1993 System of National Accounts. She then shows the UN approach to accounting applied to pollution, recycling, and the management of natural resources such as forests, minerals, and fisheries. The third section discusses how the accounts approach green GDP and other macroeconomic indicators. The book concludes by going beyond the UN structures to discuss other adjusted macroeconomic measures and how accounting data can be used to build them.National Environmental Accounting is a non-technical introduction to an increasingly important field. It is a must-read for anyone interested in how environmental accounts can help society move towards greater sustainability.

The Make-Work Programs in the New Deal Era: An Assessment
The Make-Work Programs in the New Deal Era: An Assessment by Corinna Roth Book Summary:
Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,5, Technical University of Chemnitz, course: Hauptseminar: Comparative Studies - the Interwar Period in Britain and the USA, 15 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: In the beginning, Roosevelt had to face a widespread economic disaster which covered all sectors: the banking had collapsed so that most people lost all their money and lifetime savings; the agriculture, more than the other sectors, suffered from the depression by overproduction and falling prices; and the industry urgently required recovery. First of all, Roosevelt proclaimed "a three-day 'bank holiday'" and shortly after that the Emergency Banking Relief Act (EBRA) to restore the collapsed banking. The Agricultural Adjustment Act(AAA) was an attempt to solve the agricultural difficulties, and the recovery of the industry should be achieved by the National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA). The resulting most predominant and urgent problem in all sectors was increasing unemployment and impoverishment which Roosevelt attacked by varying make-work programs. He was aware of the alarming dimensions of this problem. Regarding this fact, taking the jobless to work was Roosevelt's most important concern and as it was the basis of the well-being and prosperity of the nation it had priority over all other problems. What sets Roosevelt apart from the other presidents was his faith in the future and his ability to convince the American people that they must also believe in the future to regain a normal way of life. Roosevelt's work relief programs, especially during the First Hundred Days, have repeatedly been debated up to this day. There have always been controversial discussions about the effects and failures. For all that reasons, in my paper I will concentrate on the make-work programs and examine its positive and also negative effects. In the first part I will shortly outline the situation before Roosevelt's presidency and his election pledge, and I will generally define the term. Further, I will have a closer look on the chronologically ordered programs of the First New Deal. I am going to define each measure, demonstrate the effects, achievements, and also the negative side effects respectively criticism. The second part focused the make-work measures of the Second New Deal in a similar way. I will give an overview of the regular earnings in contrast to the earnings under work relief and WPA in a table. My intention is to give an assessment of the positive and negative results and achievements. I will examine to what extent Roosevelt was able to fulfil his promise and whether the programs were successful on a long term basis.

Practical Handbook of Warehousing
Practical Handbook of Warehousing by Kenneth B. Ackerman Book Summary:
This is the third edition of a book first published in 1983. It con tains two new chapters. One of these deals with the growing use of "just-in-time" techniques and their effect on warehousing. A second new chapter covers specialized warehousing and three types of special storage - temperature control, protection of hazardous materials and "fulfillment" warehousing. Major changes in both materials handling and information processing and transmitting have caused appropriate changes in the contents of this book. For over two decades, the author has been involved in writing about the warehousing industry. Earlier writings were oriented to ward users and operators of public warehouses. The goal of this early writing was to develop a better understanding between the third party warehouse operator and his consumer, through a common apprecia tion of technical problems. Since that time, the number of information sources on warehous ing has increased. A professional society, the Warehousing Education and Research Council did not even exist when we first started writing about the industry. Today it provides an important source of informa tion in the field. Both private and third-party warehousing have grown in vol ume. More importantly, public awareness of warehousing as an in dustry in itself has increased.

UK selected
Pylon design competition winner revealed
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-15293918
A T-shaped design has scooped a £5,000 prize in a competition to find the next generation of electricity pylons.
Danish engineering firm Bystrup beat 250 rivals to win the Royal Institute of British Architects contest.
It set the challenge to replace the familiar "triangle" design - in use since the 1920s - in May, although there is no commitment to build them.
An increasing number of pylons are expected to be needed to connect new wind, nuclear and hydroelectric plants.
Time for T?
Bystrup's architect Rasmus Jessing said he aimed for a more positive shape than the traditional "grumpy old men" design, as they are known in Denmark, to carry new forms of renewable energy.

In pictures: Pylons of the future?
"Hopefully in the next couple of years it will be time for T - the T-pylon," he said.
Six entries shortlisted in the competition, organised with the Department of Energy and Climate Change and energy firm National Grid, have been on show in London's Victoria and Albert Museum. The five runners-up received £1,000 each.
The jury - which included Energy Secretary Chris Huhne, leading architects and energy officials - rated entries on design quality, functionality, and technical viability.
After calling for entries to be "both grounded in reality and beautiful", the judges took into account the public response to the designs and the teams' abilities to create them.
'Ingenious structure'
Mr Huhne praised the T-pylon as "an innovative design which is simple, classical and practical".
"Its ingenious structure also means that it will be much shorter and smaller than existing pylons and therefore less intrusive," he added.
Image caption The five runners-up were awarded £1,000 each
There are more than 88,000 pylons in the UK, carrying up to 400,000 volts of electricity over thousands of miles.
Most are about 50m (165ft) high and weigh some 30 tonnes but Bystrup says the 20-tonne T-pylon would stand at just 32m (105ft).
The pylons could be coloured to blend in with the countryside, while a stainless steel version for coastal areas would offer protection against corrosion from airborne salt, it says.
National Grid says it wants to work with Bystrup and two others: Essex-based New Town Studio - which designed the lattice-framed Totem pylon - and Ian Ritchie Architects, of London, with its sleek Silhouette.
Organisers say the target of reducing carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 will lead to electricity playing an increasingly important role in the UK's energy mix.
A subsequent proliferation of pylons and underground cables "have the potential to transform our landscapes for good or bad, and for generations to come", they said.
Repair costs
Campaigners frequently complain that pylons blight the countryside, while Lib Dem MP Tessa Munt described damage they cause as "beyond belief" in a Parliamentary debate in July.
However, National Grid says it is 10 times as expensive to lay underground cables which are also more difficult and costly to repair.
And the 1920s pylons retain some fans.
Flash Bristow, from the Pylon Appreciation Society, said they were an "elegant engineering solution".
"Existing pylons I appreciate because they're a lattice design, so when you look at the pylon what you see, a lot of it, is actually the background coming through."
Could pylons ever be pretty?
