Children at schools in three regions of Ghana got their first experience of computers following the launch of the Hands on computer classes for 1,800 Ghana children project.
"This was my first time using a computer, and it was a bit difficult," said Beatrice Adjei, a student at Archbishop Amissah Junior High School in Western Region.
Beatrice is determined to do well in her computer classes because she wants to be a doctor when she grows up. "Computers will help me with research online, for example, about chemicals. I believe they will make my work faster," she said.
Another enthusiastic student is Erica Cobbineh, who is confident that in the long term, computers will make life easier for her - especially in her chosen career: journalism. "As a journalist I will be able to get a lot of information through the internet," she said.
The project enables four regional mobile libraries to travel to schools with solar powered laptops pre-loaded with educational software and reading material to give struggling students hands on computer classes. Many schools in underdeveloped and rural areas of Ghana do not have computers, internet connections or reliable electricity. Without practical experience thousands of children fail their computer exams and cannot progress to secondary school.
The project was launched in three regions of Ghana - Western, Upper East and Ashanti regions - in November. The launch events were celebrations, attended by over 100 people, including officials of the Ghana Education Service, representatives of the Ghana Library Authority, schoolchildren, teachers and headmasters from 15 schools, and the regional librarians who coordinate the classes and operate the mobile library vans.
'SHINE AND STAND TALL AMONG YOUR PEERS'
Addressing guests at the launch in Western Region, Ms Benedicta Aseidu, acting Human Resources Manager, Ghana Education Service, called on children to make full use of the learning opportunity presented by the new public library service: "I expect you to shine, to stand tall among your peers, and let it reflect in your Basic Education Certificate Examination," she said.
Interviewed after the launch, Aseidu said the computers filled an important gap, and would play a vital role in improving children's results in the compulsory computer examinations. She especially appreciated the educational material pre-loaded to the computers: "There is software in almost all school subjects, and exam questions for the children to practice. What is more, the children can have fun while they are learning. This is a marvelous project," she said.
The Executive Director of the Ghana Library Authority, Mr Ofosu Tenkorang, commended Western Regional librarians for their commitment to the project, and thanked EIFL and the project partners for their support.
EDUCATION OFFICES PLEDGE FULL SUPPORT FOR THE LIBRARY SERVICE
In all three regions, the Regional Education Offices have embraced the new Ghana Library Authority service to rural schools, and pledged their full support for it.
In Ashanti Region, the launch took place at the premises of the Regional Education Office in Kumasi. The Deputy Regional Director of Education, Mr Joe K. Koranteng, assured participating schools that they had the support of the Regional Education Directorate. He encouraged headmasters, teachers and students to participate fully to ensure the success of the project.
In Upper East region, the launch took place at the regional library in Bolgatanga. The Deputy Regional Director of the Ghana Education Service, Mr Raymond Abatanie, said that over the years, the results of Basic Education Certificate Examination candidates in the region had not been encouraging. He hoped and believed that the project would reverse the negative trend.
The project has its origins in Volta Region in 2012, when the EIFL Public Library Innovation Programme supported Volta Regional Library to take solar powered laptops to schools in underdeveloped parts of Ho Municipality, where it reached 600 children. A grant from the technology company Nokia, through the online fundraising agency, GlobalGiving-UK, which is a Nokia partner organization, enabled EIFL to expand the project to three new regions. To implement the new project, EIFL is working in collaboration with Ghana-based partners, the Ghana Library Authority, TechAIDE and the Implementers.

Scooter clone takes on the Segway
BBC News Online technology editor in Las Vegas
It took nine months to come up with the Segway clone
You could soon see a lot more people zipping around on stand-up Segway-type electric scooters.
A US company has come up with an imitation of the invention that was supposed to revolutionise transport.
The Rad2Go Q electric scooter looks like a Segway, but has four wheels and costs a quarter of the price.
"The Segway is a marvellous invention," said Rad2Go President John Wang, "but for me it is too much technology for moving from point A to point B."
The company has been drawing the crowds at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, which ended on Sunday.
Cheaper and simpler
Just a quick glance at the Q reveals that it is no Segway.
THE RAD2GO
Twin 150 watt hub motors
24 volt battery
10 mph top speed
10-15 miles range
Cost between $1,000-1,500
The Segway is a two-wheeled, self-balancing scooter which sells for $4,495 on Amazon.
For its part, the Q stands on four wheels as there is no sophisticated built-in gyroscope.
The device is also significantly cheaper, costing between $1,000 and $1,500, depending on the model.
"When we saw the Segway, we thought it was not a bad idea," said Mr Wang, who decided there was room for a cheaper and simpler type of device.
"The more complication you have, the more problems you are likely to have," he told BBC News Online.
It took the California-based firm nine months to come up with the clone.
Show buzz
The Q has two 150 watt motors built into the wheels, powered by a 24 volt battery that lasts for between 10 and 15 miles.
It can reach a top speed of 10mph, which is comparable to the Segway.
The scooter also comes with a throttle controlled by the thumb, brakes, a headlamp and even indicator lights.
The Q caused a buzz at the CES, the world's largest consumer technology showcase, with dozens of people taking a break from traipsing through the show floor to ride the Q.
Mr Wang said they had sold thousands of units in just a few days, with people taking advantage of a discounted price of $800.
"It is a very secure feeling," said Carol Berman, as her husband ordered one of the $1,000 scooter.
The Q has just gone on sale in the US and the firm is negotiating with eight UK companies to bring the scooter across the Atlantic.
Mr Wang said he expected the scooter to be available in Britain in two to three months.

World's second richest man..
World's second richest man pays tribute to most influential investor in history
businessFrank KolimagoJack Bogle
You probably haven't heard of him but Jack Bogle could well be the most influential investor of the past century.
That's how the world's second richest man Warren Buffett has described him anyway.
Bogle passed away yesterday, aged 89.
"If a statue is ever erected to honor the person who has done the most for American investors, the hands down choice should be Jack Bogle."
– Warren Buffett (2017)
In 1975, Bogle changed the game, creating the world's first index fund with his company The Vanguard Group.
He made investing cheap and accessible for people and didn't try to beat the system but instead followed the averages.
It's with great sadness that we announce the death of our founder and index fund pioneer, John C. Bogle, 1929-2019. His impact was indisputable, and his passion for investing and the individual investor will live on. He will be missed. https://t.co/Mh9REit4n9
— Vanguard (@Vanguard_Group) January 16, 2019
One man who knew Jack Bogle and his significant influence is CEO of Vanguard in Australia Frank Kolimago.
He speaks to Ross Greenwood about Jack and the company's now $7-trillion in assets.
"He came up with some great, simple phrases that took very complicated and sophisticated investment concepts and made them understandable for the average investor."
Experts say Jack Bogle could have structured his business in a way that would have made him among the richest men on the planet.
Instead, he amassed a far smaller fortune of around $80 million, about half of which has been given to charity.
Mr Kolimago tells Ross this was no accident.
"Mr Bogle was a man of incredibly high integrity.
"I would say one of the biggest passions that drove him was advocacy for the investor and putting the clients first."

Consultwebs Team Members Take Millions of Steps Toward Fitness in Fitbit Challenge
Home Join Our Team Consultwebs Team Members Take Millions of Steps Toward Fitness in Fitbit Challenge
Despite dark evenings and cold weather, the Consultwebs team has started the new year off on the right foot. And every step counts because team members are tracking their exercise with Fitbits to win prizes in a company-sponsored fitness challenge.
Since January 1, participating team members have logged every move they make as a part of the Fitbit Corporate Wellness Program. In December, Consultwebs purchased a $129 Fitbit Charge for each team member who wanted to take part in the New Year's challenge, allowing a break-in period for them to get used to the activity trackers before the competition started.
Not even snow and ice has kept Consultwebs CEO Dale Tincher from his regular walks. Dale leads all Consultwebs steppers through the first month of the competition with 486,590 steps in January — the equivalent of more than 227 miles.
HR Director Jennifer Hartman suggested the challenge, which is designed to get everyone moving more. "Our team has enthusiastically responded to the program. Forty-five team members have signed up. Several expressed their appreciation and excitement about the program," Jennifer said.
Although physical restraints are not typically used to keep team members at their desks and on task, the nature of the work tends to be sedentary. Consultwebs Executive Vice President Magnus Simonarson sees the Fitbit challenge as a way to change that.
"A problem with office and computer-related employment is that health can be neglected. We care about our team's health and wanted to offer something to counteract this," Magnus said.
Currently underway, the first quarter goal challenges team members to rack up a total of 750,000 steps between January 1 and March 31. That averages out to 8,242 steps per day. Participants who reach that threshold will receive a $50 cash bonus in April.
In addition, top steppers will win prizes. The team member who logs the most steps during the first quarter will win an iPad Mini. The first runner up gets a $100 Amazon gift card, and the second runner up takes home a Kindle Fire. The consolation prize for all participants is better physical and mental health.
"The program is a huge success," CEO Dale Tincher said. "We have a competitive group of team members and have a spirited competition going to see who will have the most steps each day."
Dale also (kiddingly) said, "I worry about one team member, however, I have suspicions that Mike Zellmer has put his Fitbit on his dog and it is running wildly through his neighborhood. I don't see how anyone could log that many miles."
The good natured banter has extended into email, instant messages, and other communications between team members bringing moments of both comedy and motivation.
To multiply the benefits of the program, many team members have also been raising money for various causes through the Charity Miles app. The app pairs sponsors with walkers, runners and cyclists to award funds to charitable organizations based on the amount of activity from the user.
The user selects an organization from the list and their exercise turns into dollars for a charity. Consultwebs team members have raised money for Alzheimer's Association, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Wounded Warrior Project and others with the support of sponsors such as Johnson & Johnson, Humana, Chobani, Kenneth Cole and others.
As of the last week in January, the Consultwebs team had taken 6,912,943 steps for a total of 3,121 miles – roughly the cross-country driving distance from Miami to Seattle. And the challenge has just begun.

Usher, Beyonce, More Pay Tribute To Michael Jackson
Estelle, Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump, Irv Gotti, Trick Daddy also remember the late legend.
Shaheem Reid 06/25/2009
The world has seen the death of one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Michael Jackson has died, but his impact and influence are everlasting, as evidenced by the dozens of celebrities speaking out.
"This loss has deeply saddened me!" Usher told MTV News on Thursday night (June 25). "It is with a heavy heart I composed this statement. May God cover you, Michael. We all lift your name up in prayer. I pray for the entire Jackson family, particularly Michael's mother, children and all his fans that loved him so much. I would not be the artist, performer and philanthropist I am today without the influence of Michael. I have great admiration and respect for him, and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to meet and perform with such a great entertainer, who in so many ways transcended the culture. He broke barriers, he changed radio formats! With music, he made it possible for people like Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama to impact the mainstream world. His legacy is unparalleled. Michael Jackson will never be forgotten."
"I'm in total shock," Estelle said. "He's one of the reasons for me pushing for excellence with everything — shows, songs — I do. Prayers for the entire family."
"It is a sad day in the world of entertainment," Nick Cannon told MTV News. "Michael Jackson was the reason I wanted to be an entertainer."
"This is such a tragic loss and a terrible day," Beyoncé added. "The incomparable Michael Jackson has made a bigger impact on music than any other artist in the history of music. He was magic. He was what we all strive to be. He will always be the King of Pop! Life is not about how many breaths you take, but about how many moments in life that take your breath away. For anyone who has ever seen, felt or heard his art, we are all honored to have been alive in this generation to experience the magic of Michael Jackson. I love you, Michael."
Irv Gotti described Jackson as "the biggest star of our generation," which is tough to dispute. "The Best Entertainer!" Gotti beamed of Jackson. "He made the best records, videos, everything. I'm saddened by the world's loss. For a brief time he considered working with me and having me produce his album. In that brief time, I got to know him fairly well. And he was just the coolest person. My prayers go out to the whole Jackson family and especially his children."
"I feel like John Lennon got shot," Fall Out Boy frontman Patrick Stump said. "This is sad like 'On the Waterfront,' sad like 'Raging Bull,' sad like 'The Wrestler.' Music rarely gets hits like this; this is almost unparalleled. Even people who didn't enjoy his music have to acknowledge his influences. He was to pop what Davis and Coltrane were to bop. He was to R&B what Neil Armstrong was to the moon: an explorer who discovered a whole world unto itself. He was the Nikola Tesla of dance moves."
"MJ made black folks proud," Trick Daddy testified. "He influenced our music and our style of dress. He taught us what it meant to be a 'performer.' He was our beloved icon, and we'll hold him in our hearts forever.
"We've just lost the most loved, talented and famous African-American in the world," the Miami MC continued. "Everyone from the age of 25-80 should be saddened by this loss, and if you're younger and you don't know the history, you need to learn it. Michael paved the way for blacks into the mainstream."
A huge part of Jackson's legacy was his live performance. Jackson was inspired by fellow performer James Brown and dominated the stage like no other. He and the Jackson 5 had legendary performances at the "world famous" Apollo Theater.
"The entire Apollo family is saddened to learn of Michael Jackson's untimely passing," said Jonelle Procope, president and CEO of the Apollo Theater Foundation Inc. "Michael first performed at the Apollo in 1969 with his brothers when he was only 9 years old, winning Amateur Night and catapulting their career as the Jackson 5. We will always remember Michael in our hearts as a true Apollo legend, known for his professionalism and grace. Our sympathy goes out to his entire family. He will be deeply missed."
MTV will be paying tribute to MJ throughout the weekend with music videos, exclusive performances and calls and tweets from celebrity admirers and friends. For everything we've got on the life, career and passing of the legendary entertainer, visit "Michael Jackson Remembered."

Michael Avenatti Indicted
Harold Fisher | April 11, 2019 at 3:27 pm
Attorney Michael Avenatti could face a sentence of 335 years in prison if convicted of charges in a 36-count federal indictment.
The indictment announced Thursday in Los Angeles alleges Avenattti stole millions of dollars from clients, didn't pay taxes, committed bank fraud and lied during bankruptcy proceedings.
U.S. Attorney Nick Hanna says the four areas of alleged criminal conduct are all linked to each other because money generated from one set of alleged crimes appears in other sets of alleged crimes.
Officials say a private jet co-owned by Avenatti was seized Wednesday as part of the ongoing investigation.
Avenatti has tweeted denials of all the allegations and says he will plead not guilty.
The indictment filed against attorney Michael Avenatti alleges he stole millions of dollars from clients, did not pay his taxes, committed bank fraud and lied in bankruptcy proceedings.
Avenatti was indicted late Wednesday on the charges following his arrest in New York last month for allegedly trying to shake down Nike for up to $25 million.
The attorney best known for representing porn actress Stormy Daniels in lawsuits against President Donald Trump said Thursday he will plead not guilty.
The new charges say he embezzled from a paraplegic man and four other clients and shuffled money between several accounts to deceive them.
The charges also say Avenatti pocketed payroll taxes from employees of the Tully's coffee chain that he owned.
Attorney Michael Avenatti says he will plead not guilty to a 36-count federal indictment filed against him in Southern California.
Avenatti tweeted Thursday that he intends to fight all of the charges and says he looks forward to the truth being known, as opposed to what he characterizes as a "one-sided version."
A statement from prosecutors to news outlets says details of the case will be released Thursday morning by U.S. Attorney Nick Hanna and the Internal Revenue Service in Los Angeles.
The new charges follow Avenatti's arrest in New York last month for allegedly trying to shake down Nike for up to $25 million and on two counts of wire and bank fraud from Southern California, where his firm is based.
Federal prosecutors say attorney Michael Avenatti has been charged in a 36-count federal indictment in Southern California.
A statement from prosecutors to news outlets says details of the case will be released Thursday morning by U.S. Attorney Nick Hanna and the Internal Revenue Service.
The attorney is best known for representing porn actress Stormy Daniels in lawsuits against President Donald Trump. Avenatti has said he expects to be cleared.

Gbenga Daniel, a former governor of Ogun State and chief strategist for the Atiku Abubakar presidential campaign, has resigned from active and partisan politics.
Mr Daniel, a longtime chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, said in a letter to the party's chairman, Uche Secondus, that he abandoned politics after realising that he had reached the peak of his career.
The 62-year-old would now spend the rest of his retirement running his charity and political foundation, he said in the March 14 letter.
A career engineer with renown background in installation and maintenance of elevators, Mr Daniel joined the PDP in 2001 to run for governor in Ogun State. He defeated incumbent Olusegun Osoba in the 2003 general elections, and went on to serve two terms until 2011.
Mr Daniel said a crisis that engulfed the PDP in Ogun State shortly before he left office lingers 10 years on, desperate concerted efforts by party loyalists to find a lasting solution.
He was arraigned for alleged corruption shortly after leaving office by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, and disappeared into political oblivion as he struggled to extricate himself of the multi-billion naira charges of misappropriation of public funds. Several years after his arraignment, however, no verdict had been reached by the federal court on his matter.
Mr Daniel regained political prominence in 2017 when he ran to be national chairman of the PDP. Even though he ran some of the sturdiest campaigns at the time, he ultimately lost to Mr Secondus at the party's national convention in December 2017.
Although Mr Daniel shared the sentiments of other Yoruba politicians who alleged widespread injustice and conspiracy in the convention's outcome, he soon re-emerged as the main man of Mr Abubakar's presidential exploratory panel in early 2018.
In May 2018, Mr Abubakar confirmed widespread expectation and named Mr Daniel his campaign director. But following Mr Abubakar's victory at the presidential primaries in October 2018, Mr Daniel was dropped as the director general, replaced by Bukola Saraki, Nigeria's Senate President.
But Mr Abubakar kept Mr Daniel as a key strategist with somewhat undefined but sweeping roles in the campaign structure.
Multiple sources close to Mr Daniel told PREMIUM TIMES Saturday that his resignation was a fallout of the outcome of the presidential election, which saw President Muhammadu Buhari declared winner against Mr Abubakar with nearly four million votes difference.
Mr Daniel felt he could have done better to ensure victory for the party but for his removal as the head of campaign committee, according to a source close to the former governor.
Mr Daniel did not publicly oppose the appointment of Mr Saraki as the campaign DG, and insisted in his letter that the decision to quit politics was strictly personal and not borne out of ill-feelings against the party or elements within it.
Kola Ologbondiyan, a spokesperson for the PDP, told PREMIUM TIMES Saturday afternoon he had not seen Mr Daniel's letter to the party, and would, therefore, not be able to comment.
A spokesperson for Mr Abubakar was unavailable for comments Saturday afternoon.
4. Meanwhile, the PDP in Ogun State was confronted with a very difficult situation in matter of choice. Whereas the national leadership of our party, recognized one candidate for the 2019 election, by court pronouncements another candidate, and in compliance with those court orders, which the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) recognized was on the INEC list. The candidates recognized by INEC were not acceptable to the national leadership of the party. Our situation was then compounded because the candidate which the court and INEC recognized and accepted as valid has also been expelled by the party. This was the dilemma we found ourselves as we approached the March 9, 2019 Governorship and State House of Assembly elections.
10. Without doubt, I will miss the company of my friends and associates and all those relationships I built in the course of the years all over the country.

Best Clubs For Moombahton In LA

When electronic dance music guru Dave Nada fathered moombahton in 2009, the Los Angeles resident gave rise to an explosive music sub-genre that has swept the world's dance clubs like a monstrous firestorm. Nada's original style, which marries melodramatic Dutch house to laid-back raggaeton, has since spawned generational offshoots of cultural significance now spiced with elements of Latin, classical, blues, jazz, rock, funk, rap and other secular and cosmopolitan tunes. "There are lots of cumbia and hip-hop mixes these days," said west coast turntablist DJ Shapeshifter. "That's what I play." While the sexy sounds of this nouveau trend continue to transmogrify into what has become a colorful coat of many arms, here is a select list of where to hear this music as it develops.
www.avalonhollywood.comFrom CBS' radio programs in the 1940s to the Beatles' first West Coast performance in 1964, this Spanish colonial theater paved the way for quite a few gifted personalities. Today, it's L.A.'s No. 1 nightclub destination for the more celebrated freestyle producers of electronic dance music. This incomparable state-of-the-art location, near Hollywood and Vine, showcases the mind-blowing wizardry of such revered turntablists as German trance music DJ Markus Schulz; English big beat DJ Paul Oakenfold; and American electro house DJ Dave Nada. Musical geniuses infusing the veins of their fans with non-stop beats, coupled with its first-class audio-visual production value, this sophisticated venue does not have a problem attracting up to 2,000 guests to its dance floor on a weekend night. This favored club also offers a full range of beverage and food services with space to accommodate some 200 seated diners. It may be difficult to warm the bench for long with the with world-renowned artists developing their own fever-pitched variations of moombahton, seemingly preternaturally, right before one's eyes. Avalon Hollywood is a place where the most-requested DJs on the planet, including moombahton's Nadastrom, take their audiences on a trend-setting, out-of-this-world adventure of conscientious ingenuity and vicious bass-line-dropping, hip-grinding fun.Related: Best Clubs With Go Go Dancers In Los Angeles

www.keyclub.comWhenever music producer Dillon Francis is not rocking a world tour or vibrating the floor at sold-out shows in places including LA's El Rey Theatre, moombahton fans will find the famed electronic dance musician on the roster at this venue that has also hosted singer-actress Tina Turner, multi-instrumentalist Tom Petty, rapper-singer Kanye West and traditional pop artist Tony Bennett. Formerly known as Billboard Live, this dance club, which shoots up three levels, has continued to diversify by providing a sizzling stage for the latest influential trends, including moombahton and the new music genre's innovative adaptations. Francis is recognized globally as one of the pioneers of moombahcore, a technique that fuses Dutch house and reggaeton with elements of hardcore techno and South London's dubstep. This wicked combo creates other-worldly sounds and a euphoric sensation that tends to promote a rapture-type atmosphere throughout this typically packed location. Enjoy a full-service bar and food menu here as well. In the wake of his 2012 extended play release of "Something, Something Awesome," Francis became the first moombahton artist to reach the highest level on Beatport's Top 5 list, thereby becoming one of the most-requested artists at Key Club. Other sub-genre performers who have no trouble booking this noteworthy concert hall include the ultra-popular Skrillex — a dubstep DJ who was named MTV's electronic dance music's Artist of the Year in 2011 — and fellow dubstep musician and bass beat producer 12th Planet.
www.clublosglobos.comSince being established in 1937 as L.A.'s inaugural American Legion hall and reportedly becoming the first legal rave party place in the country a few decades later, this two-story nightclub continues to keep pace with the world's rapidly evolving music culture. This Silverlake venue features two stages, perfect for when moombahton creator Dave Nada takes an impromptu stage dive while his partner, Matt Norstrom, punches a barrage of vicious, in-your-face beats through the nightspot's premier sound system. Open seven days a week and located east of Hollywood, Los Globos showcases both local and nationally recognized DJs and performing artists that teeter on the brink of the unimaginable and wild. New wave lovers may get lucky enough to to see Nadastrom on the same night as beat-maker 2 Deep and Beta Control, the music producer who is now promoting moombahrock, an electrified concoction of Dutch house, reggaeton and hard rock.
www.vanguardla.comSimply stated, Vanguard is an emotionally fulfilling, rock-steady beacon of light that has hosted some of the world's more revered producers of electronic dance music. Stars including Grammy-winnning record producer and master turntablist DJ Jazzy Jeff; English electro-house producer and accomplished remixer D. Ramirez; and Donald Glaude, a highly demanded house music artist who is ranked consistently on DJ Magazine's list of the world's Top 100 DJs grace this stage. Adorned with a 25-foot apex and 17-foot walls in its main ballroom, this ornately embellished structure of distinction stands in a class all its own. With a romantic balcony that overlooks a cherry-wood dance floor and a stage enveloped by a semi-circle of large video screens, Vanguard has everything to do with all elements of music, from house and trance to electro and the infectious sounds of moombahton. When he's not touring with legendary rapper LL Cool J, expect to find DJ Z-Trip — a pioneer of the famous mashup movement — shoving some earth-shattering beats through the venue's ear-piercing sound system. Other notables include Italian progressive house DJ Benny Benassi, whose 2002 hit, "Satisfaction," has since been resurrected and is now played as a moombahton remix. At Vanguard, it may not always be about creating new music, but developing trendy methods to keep good music alive and flourishing.

Cinespace
www.cinespace.infoA top-tier entertainment center, this venue is where diehard electronic music fans will find some of the more hardcore performing musicians spinning moombahton/hip-hop remixes. Offering a lounge, restaurant, cinema and dance hall, Cinespace is an adventure unto itself. Whenever DJ Whiskey Pete is riding the club's control panel, expect the floor to animate like an electrical storm as he whips party goers into domination with red-blooded slabs of electro house, drumstep and his moombahton variations. A featured personality at this club, this songwriter is one of the industry's more recognized vocalists in the dance music genre and on radio broadcasts that promote moombahton/hip-hop. Visit this down-to-earth location to see James Amato and Bulmatron, who are both prolific electronic dance music producers that possess the ability to metaphorically slap their audience into submission with the hypnotic and repetitive beats of moombahton/hip-hop, dubstep, complextro and trap. With an interior that resembles a maze, Cinespace is where many avant-garde artists, including Lady Gaga, have performed to test a new music style before a live audience.

While it may lack the dash and dazzle of its near neighbour Dubai, visitors looking for something more than glossy malls and designer boutiques should give Sharjah the benefit of the doubt. UNESCO named Sharjah the Cultural Capital of the Arab world in 1998 and the Emirate regains the title in 2014. Not only does Sharjah have the most extensive traditional souk and old town in the UAE, it's also home to some of the most respected museums and galleries in the region and a growing number of international exhibitions and events. These include the impressive Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, the Arabian Wildlife Centre at the Sharjah Desert Park – where visitors can see indigenous desert species such as the Arabian leopard that have all but disappeared from the wild – and the Sharjah Biennial, one of the most influential contemporary art events in the Middle East. Recent archaeological finds have proved that people have been visiting Sharjah ever since humanity first migrated out of Africa. They were obviously looking for something more than a hedonistic lost weekend.
Sharjah's hotel scene is growing thanks to the many package tourists. Visitors from China and the former Soviet Union now use the emirate as a cost-effective base from which to explore Dubai. Despite its location at the Sharjah airport and the original designation as a business hotel, Rotana's new Centro Sharjah is proving popular. The hotel has a masculine, contemporary interior with a small but well-equipped gym, outdoor pool, and regular shuttle service to local attractions and Dubai (www.rotana.com; 06 508 8000). A double room costs from Dh225 per night.
If you're looking for a decent beach, try either the Radisson Blu Resort (www.radissonblu.com/resort-sharjah; 06 565 7777), where double rooms start from Dh425 per night, or the Coral Beach Resort (www.coral-international.com; 06 522 9999). A double room here costs from Dh196 per night. The Sharjah Rotana may look a little dated, but it makes up for this with excellent service and a location that is within easy walking distance of the city's heritage area, museums and galleries (www.rotana.com; 06 563 7777). Classic double rooms cost from as little as Dh166 per night.
For a little more opulence, stay at the five-star Corniche Al Buhaira Hotel (www.hilton.com; 06 519 2031) where a double room costs from Dh350. The hotel will be joining the Hilton group at the end of this year. All prices include taxes.
For culture vultures, there's more than a weekend's "edutainment" to be found in Sharjah's carefully restored arts and heritage areas and the sites here are all within easy walking distnace of each other. These include the recently rebuilt Al Hosn Fort, home to the ruling Al Qasimi family for 200 years, the atmospheric Souq Al Arsah with its antique shops and beautiful palm-frond roof, the Bait Al Naboodah, a traditional house that used to belong to the pearl-trading Al Shamsi family, and the Bait Al Gharbi.
Located opposite the Islamic Museum, the Bait Al Gharbi is a courtyard house with three cooling wind towers and many unique architectural features. It now houses a museum of traditional life featuring furniture, jewellery, ceramics and costumes.
The area is also home to the Sharjah Art Museum, the largest art museum in the Gulf, which contains a permanent collection of more than 300 orientalist paintings from the 18th and 19th centuries, and the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, which has galleries dedicated to the history of Islamic art, history, science, and culture.
The Al Gahwa Al Shaabiya cafe (06 572 3788) is a traditional building constructed of coral, sea rocks, and gypsum that now serves as a coffee shop and late night restaurant.
The restaurant has an extensive menu of Arabic meals and snacks and is popular with Emiratis who like to gather on the large outdoor terrace.
The views of the Buhaira Corniche and Khalid Lagoon are excellent, but if you want to avoid the noise of seemingly constant traffic, make sure to sit inside.
Sadaf is an Iranian restaurant that's popular with local Emirati families and expats alike. It has an atmospheric interior that's decorated with traditional Persian tiles, private dining booths, and an open tandoor from where the smell of fresh bread fills the restaurant. Among the popular dishes is the traditional Iranian chelo kabab sultani, a veal and minced meat dish served with rice (www.sadaffood.com; 06 5693344).
Given that Dubai is so close, coming to Sharjah to shop in a mall rather misses the point, but Sharjah's Blue Souq still manages to hold its own. Packed with small shops and stalls selling everything from Iranian carpets and Bedouin jewellery, to plastic flowers, electronics and toys, this is a modern mall at its most souq-like. It's also one of the most popular spots for an evening's promenade.
Sharjah's traffic is legendary and a journey that might take 20 minutes during the day can take hours in rush hour.
Sharjah's traditional markets and old souq are unlike anything else in the UAE. Genuine antiques and bric-a-brac can be found in the Souq Al Arsah while the cooling colonnades of the vegetable market offer soothing respite from the noise and mayhem beyond.
Traders at the traditional date market, behind the bus station, offer shoppers free samples as well as the opportunity to practise haggling, while the small but teeming plant souq has greenery for your house and garden. As the bedding display on one of the city's many roundabouts says, "Smile, you're in Sharjah".
I think that what you published made a bunch of sense.
But, what about this? suppose you composed a catchier title?
a person's attention? I mean My kind of place – Sharjah | writing to inform is kinda boring. You might peek at Yahoo's home page and see how they create post headlines to get people to open the links.
you've written. Just my opinion, it would bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

Trisha Yearwood's College Major Had Nothing To Do With Music
Featureflash Photo Agency/Shutterstock
By Lauren David/Jan. 27, 2022 7:51 pm EST
Country singer and cooking show host Trisha Yearwood knows a thing or two about fame. It might seem surprising that the star shifted career gears — from being a Grammy-winning musical artist to becoming the host of "Trisha's Southern Kitchen" on Food Network — but based on her history, it's not so unpredictable. Yearwood grew up cooking with her family on a farm in Georgia, per Delish, and always aspired to be a singer. You could say that she's lived in the best of both worlds.
Yearwood worked hard to get to where she is today, and one of the stepping stones that led her here was education. Yearwood went to college after graduating from high school, as pursuing higher learning was important to her and her family, according to Charlie Rose. Despite knowing that she wanted to be a country singer, however, she didn't study music. So, what did this multi-talented star get a degree in?
Yearwood is happy she studied business

In an interview with Charlie Rose, Yearwood explained why she always knew she would go to college: "My mom's a school teacher, and my dad's a retired banker, so I kind of had no choice but to go that route, and I wanted to get my education." She studied business administration at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, and had intentions of becoming an accountant, per Country Fancast. (Nashville was a tactical move, as it's a city known for country music.) As you may guess, Yearwood never worked as an accountant — but Yearwood is quick to say that she's been able to apply her business and accounting knowledge to her own life and business.
She told Rose, "To be an artist who knows what checks are being written and where the money is going and saving for the future. ... I don't sign every check anymore but I have my checks, my balances." Her education helped prepare her for the future, she added — even though she had no idea at the time what her future would hold.


Approximately seventy-three minutes into yesterday afternoon's Premier League match between Liverpool and Chelsea, Luis Suarez slipped from the Anfield pitch and back into the dressing room. He emerged seconds later with his hair slicked back, wearing a black leather jacket and a white T-shirt, carrying a pair of water-skis, gave a thumbs up signal, said, "Eyyyyyyyyy!" to Jamie Carragher, and then he did it – he jumped that shark. Except he didn't merely jump it. He somersaulted over it, soaring high into the stratosphere before landing six minutes into stoppage-time to score Liverpool's equalising goal and putting a dent into Chelsea's chances of making it into the Champions League next season.
Yesterday was a day of contrasts at Anfield. Before the match there was a minute's applause for Anne Williams, the Hillsborough campaigner who lost her son in 1989 and sadly died at the beginning of last week, before she could see justice done in his name. The banners flying around Anfield paid tribute to a woman who had become one of the most vocal agitators for justice for those that died on that day twenty-four years ago and whose campaigning spirit will be sadly missed. It was a touching final show of support from the ordinary supporters of Liverpool Football Club for someone who had never ceded an inch in her quest for justice for him. That it should have been followed by the pantomime that it was felt oddly jarring.
Comments from Liverpool FC forums from the one or two per cent of supporters defending Suarez for what happened will be posted on Twitter isolation that all Liverpool supporters found there to be nothing wrong with what he did.
That one or two per cent of Liverpool supporters will refer endlessly back to the 2006 incident when Jermain Defoe bit Javier Mascherano in 2006 and wasn't sanctioned for it, whilst not mentioning that the reason for this was that the referee saw it and viewed it as only a cautionable offence.
The FA's punishment, no matter what it turns out to be, will be considered too lenient by everybody that doesn't support Liverpool and too harsh by most that do.
The world will keep on turning.
Elsewhere in the Premier League, meanwhile, both Reading and Queens Park Rangers now effectively need to win all of their remaining Premier League matches in order to avoid relegation after they both lost at the weekend, whilst at other end of the table, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs are very much as they were. Spurs' transformation of their game at White Hart Lane against Manchester City yesterday afternoon was probably the most notable single performance of the weekend in this division, though, especially when we consider how tepid their form had been in the league of late. Manchester United will now be confirmed as the Premier League champions if – or, if the form book is anything to go by, when – they beat Aston Villa at Old Trafford tonight.
The Football League, even though its members play eight more matches per season than their counterparts in the Premier League, finishes next weekend, and the picture regarding who will be playing in which division next season is starting to finally become a little more clear. Cardiff City are the champions of the Championship, as it were, and they are now likely to be joined by Hull City in the Premier League next season, even though Hull dropped two points against Bristol City – who are now relegated – Friday night. Watford will almost certainly finish third, but the form team in the play-off places is Brighton & Hove Albion, who demolished Blackpool by six goals to one on Saturday to record their seventh straight match unbeaten. The other two play-off places will be taken up by two from Crystal Palace, Bolton Wanderers, Leicester City and Nottingham Forest, who are separated by three points with just two matches of the season left to play. At the other end of the table, meanwhile, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Barnsley occupy the other two relegation places, but in reality any two from fifteenth placed Burnley down could still be relegated.
In the bottom two divisions of the Football League, there is just one match left to play for most clubs. Bournemouth's win against Carlisle United on Saturday afternoon means that it would require something extremely improbable to happen for them to not get promoted, whilst either Doncaster Rovers or Brentford – who could muster just a single point between them on Saturday – will accompany them. The other three clubs in the play-offs – for this has already been decided beyond doubt – will be the division's surprise team this season, Yeovil Town, Swindon Town and Sheffield United, while at the bottom of the table Portsmouth celebrated coming out of administration and having their points deduction added this season by beating Sheffield United in front of a crowd of almost eighteen and a half thousand people. They are, of course, already relegated alongside Bury and Hartlepool United, while Scunthorpe United will need a big win and for Colchester United to lose in order to avoid becoming the fourth club to be relegated into League Two at the end of this season.
At the top of League Two, Gillingham are the champions and Port Vale will join them, presuming that they can avoid a frankly unlikely looking twenty-eight goal defeat in their final match of the season next weekend. The third automatic promotion place will go to one of Rotherham United, Cheltenham Town or – theoretically, really, considering the unlikely sequence of events that would be required for it to happen – Burton Albion. As with so many other divisions this season, however, the real drama belongs at the foot of the table. On any other week of the season, Wimbledon would have been pleased to come from two goals down to nick a point away to the league champions Gillingham, but last weekend things didn't quite work out like that, because Barnet's one-nil win against Wycombe Wanderers dropped them back into the bottom two in the division. Wimbledon's position is quite clear, though. They have to win at home against Fleetwood Town and, because two of the clubs just above them, York City and Dagenham & Redbridge, are playing each other, this would be enough to keep them up no what happens elsewhere. The flip-side to this is that their goal difference is so much worse than everybody else around them at the foot of the table that anything other than a win will mean relegation.
Finally, the Blue Square Bet Premier also reached its conclusion late on Saturday afternoon. Mansfield Town's win against Wrexham means that the Stags are promoted back to the Football League after an absence of five years, while in the play-offs, Kidderminster Harriers will play Wrexham and Newport County will play Grimsby Town. At the bottom of the table, meanwhile, there was to be no last minute salvation for Stockport County second time around, after a last minute goal game them a sliver of hope this weekend. As things turned out, their result at Kidderminster would have been an irrelevance because of what happened elsewhere anyway, with Lincoln City winning at Hyde and Tamworth beating Woking, but they still lost by four goals to nil at Kidderminster in a match disrupted by crowd trouble and which featured a Stockport supporter throwing a punch at a Kidderminster player on the Aggborough pitch.


They Cheap Jerseys Usa average 38 rebounds per game and 13 assists per game which ranks them 74th and 134th in those offensive categories. That winning streak probably saved Coach Eric Mangini's job, but new boss Mike Holmgren still dumped the team's two main starting quarterbacks from last year, NFL Jerseys 2017 Derek Anderson and Brady Qunn. And let's face it: Even with Braden Holtby having the postseason of his life – those two shutouts made him only the fifth goalie in NHL history to blank a foe in Games 6 and 7 – there's no way I can put him ahead of a goalie with an obscene .947 save percentage like Fleury. Opponents average 36 rebounds a game which ranks 205th and they give up 15 assists per contest which puts them in 272nd place in the country. Ranked at 19th in the league in on-base percentage, the Athletics sit at .313 Cheap Jerseys Usa and they hold a .388 team slugging percentage. For the Bulls to have had the contemporary Warriors' level of talent relative to the rest of the league, however, Shaquille O'Neal or Hakeem Olajuwon would have needed to join their roster to replace Luc Longley after they won 72 games Wholesale NFL Jerseys Free Shipping and a title in the 95 season. As a team, Atlanta has allowed Cheap Jerseys 9 hits per nine innings while striking out cheap jerseys 7 batters per nine. 1 Jason Day to capture the FedEx Cup. first reported Harvey's contract agreement. They have surrendered a total of 2 yards on D, which is 76th in Division 1. Their big offseason acquisitions were Phil Hughes, who is pathetic, and Ricky Nolasco, who somehow landed the largest free agent contract in team history despite his career 4 ERA in the pitcher-friendly National League. There are maybe four players on this team who might start for any of the other three clubs in the AFC North, so I can't see five wins on this schedule. While Karlsson still remains with the only team he's ever known, his recent rejection to the contract extension general manager Pierre Dorion offered and the ongoing trade rumors Cheap Jerseys surrounding him suggest that the third Senators leader in Wholesale NFL Jerseys Free Shipping five years will be moving on from Ottawa. No Obligation. He allows 6 hits per nine innings and his FIP stands at 4.
New technology lessened the need of the '12 team for notebooks and attention to bulletin boards, as the Bengals became one of Baseball Jerseys NBA Basketball Jerseys the first NFL clubs to issue players tablets, for easy distribution of schedules, video and other key information. Gentleman's Bet Wholesale NFL Jerseys Free Shipping : His last two races have been ugly, but I am willing to overlook both. He has a total of 34 assists on the season and averages 17 minutes played per game.
To find all players born within NFL Jerseys 2017 a certain month and year, for example all players born in December of 1985, choose the month and year with the drop down boxes and then choose the 'Month and Year Search' option. Vidal Nuno took his 3rd loss since joining the Diamondbacks in his last outing. Unfortunately, it's not that easy for either side. Arizona has walked 370 times so far this season and they have struck out 956 times as a unit. His three-zone play, creativity and nonstop motor set him well above his major junior peers. Instead, Anthony Davis has been hung out to dry all year, and the team is just awful. Befitting this, Brown does not have a banner up in the Pat Bowlen Fieldhouse, unlike John Elway, Gary Zimmerman, Shannon Sharpe and Terrell Davis. Kidd-Gilchrist Sidelined Up To Six Weeks With Fractured Hand Dec 5 NBA Basketball Jerseys 1 AM Charlotte Bobcats forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is expected to miss four to six weeks after suffering a non-displaced fracture of the fourth metacarpal in his left hand during the third quarter of last night's game in Dallas. Cutler has worked with some of the coaching staff before and would be comfortable. Jakub Voracek averages 18 minutes of ice time per game this season. The Gators have an overall record of 3 and a home record of 1. Also had a 15-yard return Cheap cheap jerseys Jerseys average in 2012 but was limited to 17 punt returns in nine games due to injury. Philip Rivers has the offense firing on all cylinders as number 17 NFL Jerseys 2017 has completed 162 of 245 attempts for 2 yards, 13 touchdowns and just four interceptions for a NBA Basketball Jerseys 102 passer rating.


We can see the power of now, what we focus on grows, infinite potential, and we project our reality from within. It's all there.
"It is essential to correct and balance our thought energies in order to maximize our power."
Most people's thoughts are like a runaway train. Society has grown to think that thoughts continually filling one's head are a normal aspect of life.
From intent these circuits morph and evolve and it is these very circuits that create a matrix of life at all levels.

Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme
The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is the world's leading youth achievement award, set up by the Duke of Edinburgh in 1956, originally in the UK, now having expanded to 144 other countries. The scheme is open to 14-24 year olds and creates opportunities to learn new skills, or excel at existing ones with peers and new people. There are three awards open for completion to anyone within the age range, starting with Bronze, moving on to Silver and finally Gold, all with increasing durations for each of the three/four sections that must be completed: Physical, Skills and Volunteering, as well as an additional Residential section for Gold. An expedition is also included within each award, which gets progressively longer and generally, further afield. This, for many, is the highlight of DofE and presents a true physical and mental challenge for those that wish to complete the award.
The DofE Bronze Award is open to BHS students in Year 9 and between 120 to 130 students take part each year. Following on to Silver in year 10 For Year 12 students, the Gold DofE programme is offered, extending the drive from students within the classroom to further extra-curricular interests. The Gold programme is not offered at every Sixth Form and so it is a great way to expand your skill set and stand out from others, as well as having some recognised UCAS benefits! The scheme is run at BHS by Mr Manners, supported by Year 12 DofE Ambassadors, and support and guidance is offered through a 'DofE Clinic' run every Monday lunchtime. Here, students can ask questions or sort any problems regarding their DofE award. Additionally, every student who is enrolled on the award is provided with an eDofE account, with which they can track the progress of, and formally complete, each of their sections.
Duke of Edinburgh's Award website
eDofE login page
The school runs expeditions at all levels:
Bronze Expeditions are run in the Chilterns in May and July.
Silver Expeditions are further afield, usually in the Forest of Dean and the New Forest.
Gold Expeditions are in various wild country areas such as The Beacon Beacons, Dartmoor and The Lake District.
The aim of the DofE is to include anyone who is interested to venture on a planned expedition with peers, alongside helping the community through volunteering, keeping physically fit through a sporting activity - of which there are endless opportunities - and developing an extra skill, from learning a musical instrument or a new language to taking up a lifeguard or cooking course. If you feel as though starting a new activity/club would cause difficulty, consider that most of what students are already doing beyond the classroom may satisfy the requirements for the three sections. Therefore, due to this flexibility of the DofE, the award is designed to fit the student and less so the other way around. The opportunities really are extensive, and the DofE Award is a great way to enhance your skill set and encourage the Beaconsfield High School's attitude to be Life Ready.

Baloyi tackles stereotypes on the rugby field
Written by: Dale Has
While netball and women's soccer have received much attention in recent months, other sportswomen competing in codes such as rugby still fight gender stereotypes.
University of Pretoria student Kemisetso Baloyi (21) is a rising star in the world of rugby, representing the South African Students Rugby Women's Sevens Team.
The team recently returned from the World University Games in Italy, where they finished in fourth place behind some strong competition.
Born in Soshanguve, Baloyi discovered rugby in 2013, when she was in Grade 10.
"I needed something to do in my free time. A friend at my high school was playing rugby so I asked her a few questions and she invited me to come along to practice. At high school there was only netball available for girls so I went with my friend to the Komuso Youth Rugby Club and found a love for rugby," said Baloyi.
Baloyi's love for the sport continued into university, where she was given the opportunity to play for the University of Pretoria while doing her BA Law degree and made the national student's team.
"Rugby is traditionally viewed as a men's sport. It's always either the national men's teams or the more feminine sports that get attention. Women's rugby deserves a lot more support in terms of financing."
Baloyi said that fortunately, the stereotypes are slowly changing and the game is starting to get more exposure.
"We are in a promising stage where women's rugby is eventually getting more exposure. It is very underdeveloped right now but we are making some great strides in getting our names out there and starting to compete with other countries that better support women's rugby.
"Rugby is an amazing sport. To the girls out there who want to play rugby – forget about the stereotypes; forget about what people say and think. If you have a passion for it, then just go for it!"
Baloyi is grateful for the opportunities that democracy has provided to young black women such as herself. "Democracy has expanded the whole scope of what we can do. We reach for our goals and achieve our dreams, instead of being stuck in a box. So yes, we can be very thankful for that."

Q: Shorten currency values like $20000 to $20k I'd like to convert currency values like this:
4 000 000 000 => 4b
2 000 000 => 2m
2 250 000 => 2.25m
195 000 => 195k
10 000 => 10k

Anyone know of an existing library/function that does this, or do I need to write this myself by means of conditionals that cater for 0-9999, 10000-999999, and so on..?

A: You can create a function like this to display shorten the values but it would miss the exact value
function shortifyCurrency($var){
  $var=doubleval($var);
  if($var>=1000000000){
    $var=($var/1000000000)."b";
  }else if($var>=1000000){
    $var=($var/1000000)."m";
  }else if($var>=1000){
    $var=($var/1000)."k";
  }
  return $var;
}
//Output 4b
echo shortifyCurrency(4000000000);

Or you could use the following function to display more detailed information about the value
function shortifyCurrencyXtream($var){
  $var=doubleval($var);
  $print_str="";

  if($var>=1000000000){
    $print_str.=round($var/1000000000)."b";
    $var=$var%1000000000;
  }
  if($var>=1000000){
    if($print_str!="") $print_str.=" ";
    $print_str.=round($var/1000000)."m";
    $var=$var%1000000;
  }
  if($var>=1000){
    if($print_str!="") $print_str.=" ";
    $print_str.=($var/1000)."k";
  }
  return $print_str;
}
//Output 4b 101m 500.3k
echo shortifyCurrencyXtream(4100500300);

A: You can create a custom function for this. The below one, firstly removes everything but numbers from string. Then it formats the number according how big is it and to the digit provided.
function shorten($num, $digits = 1) {
    $num = preg_replace('/[^0-9]/','',$num);
    if ($num >= 1000000000) {
        $num = number_format(($num / 1000000000), $digits, '.', '') + 0;
        $num = $num . "b";
    }
    if ($num >= 1000000) {
        $num = number_format(($num / 1000000), $digits, '.', '') + 0;
        $num = $num . 'm';
    }
    if ($num >= 1000) {
        $num = number_format(($num / 1000), $digits, '.', '') + 0;
        $num = $num . 'k';
    }
    return $num;
}

echo shorten("4 000 000 000");
echo shorten("3 200 000 000");
echo shorten("195 000");

Principally Absima, Team Associated and sometimes Kyosho, offer kits of their radio control cars for assembly. These are all good quality cars and relatively high specification for the price - higher than equivalent Tamiya ones for example.
Absima use a purely "build by diagram" method - part numbers in the manual are only there for you to buy spares, the build is done entirely by diagram.

Wonderful small boutique hotel- very friendly family run place walking distance from a small town with shops bars and restaurants- but 10 miles from Mendoza city centre! 250A$ each way do not bad.
It was a great stay with very friendly and knowledgeable staff. The breakfasts are very good and rooms clean. The family looked after us very well and we can say enough good things about them as three brothers and a sister operate the hotel.
Extremely friendly and professional service. The room was big, clean and comfortable and the premises in general well kept with beautiful landscape.
The staff was amazingly helpful in assisting with reservations, and plans. They even included us in their family New Years celebration! Great breakfast, charming cozy inn, perfect location . Highly recommend!
