Excellent news, dahlings! The superhero fashionista Edna Mode from Pixar's "The Incredibles" is making her way to Disneyland Resort this summer.
After having been previously announced to appear during Incredible Summer at Walt Disney World, Edna is now officially slated to join the cast of walkaround characters meeting and greeting with guests at Pixar Pier, the area currently being rethemed from the former Paradise Pier in the Disney California Adventure theme park across from the original Disneyland.
The eccentric but lovable Edna Mode famously designed the costumes for Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl, and the rest of the Parr family in 2004's smash success "The Incredibles," and will appear again this August when "Incredibles 2" hits the big screen from Disney/Pixar. Edna is voiced by director Brad Bird both in the movies and the highly-anticipated new Incredicoaster ride replacing California Screamin' at the park.

SHEBOYGAN - Michaela Schmidt of Kiel was charged with two counts of felony theft in a business setting on Tuesday.
Schmidt, 22, is accused of stealing in excess of $18,000 from the Sheboygan business where she worked.
According to the complaint, an officer from the Sheboygan Police Department met with members of the company's human resources and finance departments on Dec. 5.
During an account review, they said they noticed unusual activity. They provided the officer with eight photo copies of checks written to Schmidt, who was the company's office manager. In her role, they said, Schmidt was responsible for overseeing transactions related to that particular account.

Upon further review, they determined the account had not been reimbursed for the checks written to Schmidt. Furthermore, the checks were written for unusually high amounts. Typically, they said, transactions related to this account were less than $100. Between Aug. 27 and Oct. 5, multiple checks were written to Schmidt totaling $15,372.62.
After discovering this suspicious activity, they reviewed all the accounts that Schmidt had access to. In doing so, they found that she also increased her paycheck by $1,000 on three separate occasions.
Schmidt didn't respond to their emails or texts about the suspicious transactions. When they contacted her by phone, they notified her that she would be suspended pending an internal investigation.
Schmidt told an officer from the Sheboygan Police Department that she began working at the business in April. When shown the checks in question, she acknowledged that she wrote them. Schmidt claimed she reimbursed her employer through money orders.
Schmidt could not explain to the officer why she wrote herself such large checks, but she said she does not have the money.
Schmidt's initial hearing is scheduled for Dec. 26. She faces up to $35,000 in fines and more than 13 years in prison.

Africa's first HSPA+ 900 network now available
South Africa's third mobile operator, Cell C, has commercially launched Africa's first HSPA+ 900 network.
The company officially switched on the high-speed network, dubbed 4GS ' 4 Great Speed and 4 Great Service ' in Port Elizabeth as part of its nationwide network rollout. Using world-leading software-defined radio technology, Port Elizabeth will for a short period be the only area in Africa to boast an HSPA+ 900 MHz network, offering data speeds capable of up to 21.6 Mbps.
Cell C CEO, Lars P. Reichelt announced in August that the company would launch its new network, city by city, until nationwide 4GS coverage was achieved. 'To date, 1600 HSPA+ 900 sites have been deployed and we are currently running large scale user tests in 10 major cities. We'll launch the network in each of those cities once we are happy with the network coverage and quality.
He said the first phase of the 4GS network rollout, expected to be completed by the end of 2010, will cover approximately 34% of the South African population. Reichelt explained that the network will be launched on a city-by-city basis and 2 more cities will come 'on-air' in September. The company will continue to expand its network rollout and aims to cover 67% of the population by mid 2011.
'What is significant about Cell C's network, is that the HSPA+ release 7 network is IP across all network elements. This is a first for Africa, and will be rolled out countrywide and not only in pockets. The same Software Defined Radio (SDR) technology will be used across our entire network. It will be HSPA+ all the way from day one. The combination of R7 all IP networking along with the SDR technology will offer our customers a low latency, high capacity network that can evolve quickly as new standards are released.
In addition, the lower frequency of 900 MHz compared to 2100 MHz provides for much deeper and wider coverage with better penetration for indoor users. The result is fewer base stations to cover an area and enhanced in-door coverage.
Reichelt also announced that the company is launching two prepaid data products to ensure customers get the best deals right away. Available at all Cell C stores in Port Elizabeth, the data promotion offers customers the following:
24GBpackage· 7.2 Mbps USB speed stick · SIM card· 2GB of data per month x 12 monthsR1 499
60GBpackage· 21.6Mbps USB speed stick · SIM card· 5GB of data per month x 12 monthsR2 999
24GB data bundle· SIM card· 2GB of data per month x 12 monthsR999
60GB data bundle· SIM card· 5GB of data per month x 12 monthsR1 999
Reichelt said that the promotion will be extended to other cities when the network is launched in those areas to ensure everbody is able to benefit from this great offer.
He added that additional customer service support will be available at Cell C outlets and a specialized technical helpdesk has been set up to provide customers with expert advice. Customers who need assistance when installing their USB Speed Sticks can phone Cell C's customer service centre on 140 (from a Cell C phone) or 084 140 (from any other phone) and they will be routed to the technical helpdesk.
In August the company also revealed a new corporate brand identity and launched a customer-centric marketing campaign fronted by comedian Trevor Noah. Reichelt said the Tell Trevor campaign that aims to encourage debate by inviting customers to join Cell C on its journey of change has been a great success.
He said the campaign supports the company's vision of understanding the way of life of its customers better than anybody else and tailoring solutions around them to enhance lifestyles and improve livelihoods.
The campaign, which was launched four weeks ago, has already resulted in more than 30 000 posts. 'We have provided customers with a platform to raise their views ' good or bad ' and the number of web posts and SMS's we've received thus far reflects consumers' desire to be heard.
As part of its city launch, Cell C also donated a modem to the Ethembeni Enrichment Centre in Port Elizabeth to provide the school with faster internet connection. The school will also receive a monthly data bundle and an adaptor to allow multiple users connectivity at the same time.
Reichelt commended the school, which has for the past 12 years in a row obtained a 100% pass rate despite challenging circumstances, for their hard work and commitment to delivering exceptional standards in education.

Take Nnamdi Kanu seriously, Wole Soyinka advise Nigerians
admin June 6, 2020 June 6, 2020
Professor Wole Soyinka the International Nobel laureate winner has cautioned Nigerians to take Mazi Nnamdi Kanu seriously, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra,(IPOB).
Wole Soyinka made this known in an interview where he berated the fact that "Aso Rock has no leadership under Buhari has lost a touch of trying to make Nigeria great. There is no point deceiving ourselves because the young man Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has proud to the whole world that he has some facts and figures to prove his claims."
Read Also: Soyinka cries out for Nigeria not to disintegrate, warns Buhari
But, I urge the President to come out and counter those allegations which are detrimental to Nigeria dismantling, which will be against the wish of most of us that are living and we fought for the unity of this country.
It is very pathetic and appalling to know that someone is claiming so many things which look real and truthful but people are only laughing at those allegations which is detrimental to the unity of the country but you have to look at it from the other way round based on the things happening and all that he has been saying you could see that there is some fact and element of truth in his outburst that Nigeria has no president.
Where is the Vice President of Nigeria? Who supposed to be the next if the president is not in a position to handle the affairs of the country.
"He is nowhere to be found I am not afraid of going to prison because I have been there on several occasions even during the military times so this is democracy and must be practiced the way it should be we are not in a military regime." the professor concludes.

Morning Quack Fix: 1.26.09

Share All sharing options for: Morning Quack Fix: 1.26.09
Good morning everyone. It's been a slow evening, but a few items have popped up.
Miami should soon be announcing a new offensive coordinator. As you'll remember, this will be key in the decision where Bryce Brown goes to school next year. However, don't expect Brown to make a desicion anytime soon, with a March signing expected. In other recruiting news, Tajh Boyd will be making his decision tomorrow.
Rickert had a couple good posts yesterday. First he talked about the new assisstant coaching situation, and gave a thumbs up to Jerry Azzinaro. He also claims that Scott Frost will be the new Oregon receivers coach. We'll see if that pans out. UPDATE: From Goducks.com, Frost will be the new wide receivers coach.
In the same article, he he had some comments on Cliff Harris. There is a lot of yapping about his academics, but he's apparently working his butt off, and knows his situation, so it's very possible if not likely that he will be in an Oregon uniform next year.
He also had another post yesterday where he talked up Diante Jackson (could Oregon steal him back from Colorado?), and talked about how Jeremiah Johnson made a big impact in the Senior Bowl.
There are few bright spots for the men's basketball team after another sweep. Though Oregon only lost by 7 to Cal, they have not led in the second half of a Pac-10 game since the opener against USC, and have not led since the WSU game. It's a very sad state of affairs right now.
That's all for now, leave any links or comments below. Go Ducks!


The Buttermilk Jamboree would not be possible without the generous contributions of many local businesses, organizations and individuals throughout our community. We are pleased to offer you the opportunity to learn about these committed organizations that share our vision as they are announced. Thank you so much!!
THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR CURRENT AND PAST SPONSORS!

Home Depot estimates data on 56 million cards stolen by cybercriminals
Using custom malware, a group infiltrated the company's systems for five months.
Robert Lemos - Sep 18, 2014 11:20 pm UTC
The cybercriminals that compromised Home Depot's network and installed malware on the home-supply company's point-of-sale systems likely stole information on 56 million payment cards, the company stated on Thursday.
In the first details revealed in its investigation of the breach, the company said the malicious software that compromised those payment systems had been custom-built to avoid triggering security software. The breach included stores in the United States and Canada and appears to have compromised transactions that occurred between April and September 2014.
"To protect customer data until the malware was eliminated, any terminals identified with malware were taken out of service, and the company quickly put in place other security enhancements," Home Depot said in its statement. "The hacker's method of entry has been closed off, the malware has been eliminated from the company's systems, and the company has rolled out enhanced encryption of payment data to all US stores."
As part of its efforts, the company has completed a "major payment security project" to provide better encryption at the point of sale in US stores, the statement said. Security experts recommend that retailers set their point-of-sale systems to encrypt data at the check-out counter to prevent malware from gathering the information. It's not known whether Home Depot is referring to such a security measure.
The company will be rolling out more than 85,000 PIN pads to stores as part of its update to a more secure chip-and-PIN method of payment, which uses a numerical password to unlock payment details on the card.
Home Depot has not found any evidence that the PINs used to secure debit cards had been compromised in the breach.
The breach may have only impacted self-checkout terminals, according to an article published earlier on Thursday by security journalist and blogger Brian Krebs.
Frank Blake, Home Depot's chairman and CEO, apologized to customers and stressed that any fraudulent charges will be handled by the company or financial institutions.
The number of payment cards impacted by the Home Depot breach made it larger than the 40 million card accounts put at risk in the Target breach that occurred last November and December. However, the cybercriminals that infiltrated Target also stole details on some 70 million of the retailer's customers.

Exactly one hundred years ago today, on December 30, 1900, snow was falling for the 30th consecutive night onto Pökelnasegletscher, the "pickle-nose glacier" of Austrian Alps folklore. German physicist Otto Lummer was asleep in a cabin at the galosh of the glacier dreaming for the 29th consecutive night about time sheep, those wool-producing ephemeral ruminants whose positive and negative electrodes allow them to effect trans-temporal journeys. In nearly each dream, Lummer was cast in a different role. One night he was a schizophrenic meteorologist arguing both the pros and cons of the amino acid rain controversy at a sheep dipping seminar. Another time he was a data chain smoker in a room full of flammable punch card ruminants who looked on as a sleeping focus group attempted to count the sheep, but then promptly awoke. On still another occasion he found himself mired in unethical nosalectomies performed by Cosmetic Surgery By Gumby haberdashers. On the night of the 30th, however, he was playing shepherd to a flock of time sheep as they danced in and out of focus en route to parallel universes, a role of minimal interaction. Hence, he was able to observe much of what the sheep were doing to effect their trans-temporal journeys. And when a large chunk of the glacier above him calved and crashed down nearly at his front doormat, startling him awake, Lummer still had enough presence of mind to recall one crucial detail before it fleeted.
That dream tendril presented a solution to a blackbody radiation enigma that had stymied him for more than two years. A blackbody, of course, is a hypothetical object that absorbs all of the energy that falls upon it, with the exception of time sheep. The sheep's wool -- really a hard-as-nails bran-scented integument that seemed to reflect time and space -- had in the dream been harvested by time travelers to break the shackles of Universal Constant Time. Whenever one of the sheep tried to converse with another, the cartoon caption "T = W³ + B/GR" appeared over its head. Intuiting that T stood for the time sheep, W for wool, B for blackbody and GR for the glacier's radiation from a previous experiment, Lummer plugged the formula into his two-year old equation and stood back. Not quite far enough, it turned out, as a silent but powerful explosion sent him, his cabin and much of the surrounding galosh into temporal flux, a condition that would one day wear with honor the badge of Algonquin Hole. After some semblance of stasis returned to Pökelnasegletscher, Lummer tempered his experiment by reducing the amount of W, the successful consequence of which allowed angular momentum to exist on a subatomic level, forming the basis of quantum mechanical theory, as well as a really effective antacid.
Two months earlier, another German physicist, Max Planck, had propounded the Inflationary Universe Theory which dealt with blackbody radiators -- cooling devices in then-new automotive engines which absorbed any water or other fluid that circulated as a coolant through them. While Planck was on the right track -- "At any specified temperature, a blackbody emits the maximum energy obtainable from any radiator because of its temperature alone" is the first constant of Heisenberg's Law of Blackbody Radiation -- it took Lummer's paradoxical rebuttal in "Herbewegende Hosen; Kosmische Tanten," written in that strangely limerical meter, to aim the scientist in the direction of what would ultimately become Planck's constant ... and, the main ingredient in an over-the-counter stomach acid neutralizer called, strangely enough, "Beano."
"There once was a parson named Pucker," I read on the Floating Pants and Cosmic Aunts dust jacket, which I find by the door in the tunnel I have just re-entered. It had been stuffed inside of a conch shell that looks like it had frequently during its post-aquatic life played a cameo role as doorstop. As I continue to read the blurb, the words seem to ebb and flow in the Focus Department, making concentration difficult. Then, as I had done hundreds of times as a child for whom the rebuke "No!" meant classical Japanese drama, I hold the conch shell up to my ear. But in place of the ocean, I hear the faint strains of Saber Dance, however with seagulls chirruping the xylophone line in parallel fifths. I put down the shell. I still hear the music, off in the distance, counterpointing the sound of a scuffle at the far end of a peat-lined corridor that involves at least one wing flapping, a stiletto boot, and a bathtubful of radioactive balalaikas, women's size 7. The thought of the balalaikas suddenly drains me of all of my energy, and I slump to the ground, my arms, feet and conch shell splayed in a kind of inverse akimbo which, with my head homing towards Puyallup, approximates a shape that's a disturbing cross between a baby grand piano and a distant dog bark.
While puckering parsons and radioactive balalaikas may not make up the bulk of this 293rd episode of Kalvos & Damian's New Music Bazaar, we think today's motley melodic mélange will compensate nicely, a word that doesn't come immediately to mind when considering the munificently musical menus of Kalvos.


The surface protection film is known as masking film as it effectively masks the surfaces from external damages. The damage like corrosion and rust of any surface is effective caused due to interaction of the surface with external air and moisture. Some of the materials that can be protected are coated metals and uncoated metals.

Their rich attributes such as resistance against moisture and excellent elasticity, makes surface protection film highly appreciated and demanded. In addition to this, the surface protection film is appreciated as it leaves no glue on the target surfaces.
Surface of decorative laminates, PVC profiles, and plastic sheets, can also be protected by using different type of surface/masking protection films. Electronics surface and powder coated materials can also be protected from damages caused by stains dirt, and scratches. Aluminums composite panels can also be protected by possible or potential damages caused during transport and storage. In addition to this, the possible damage to the surface of the materials can be caused during laser cutting, sawing, bending, and drilling.
Metal surfaces, plastic surfaces, glass surfaces, painted surfaces, and laminated surfaces, are different surfaces that can be effectively protected by various types of surface protection films and tapes. At construction jobs sites, the carpeting flooring and ceramic tile can also protected by using general surface protection films and tapes. The electronic circuit boards and solar arrays are also can be protected in-plant masking applications.
During the processes of transportation, production, and installation, the surface of materials can be protected surface of pollution and scratches by using high quality of different types of surface protection tapes and films.
The target surface doesn't have any glue after using the surface protection films of various sizes and dimensions. Besides protection the surface of products from damages, the surface protection films or tapes also don't effectively & systematically affect the aesthetics and functions. Brick, granite, marble and polished stone can be effectively protected from contamination, environmental hazards and scratches by using specialized surface protection tapes and films.
Different sizes and designs of surface protection films can be manufactured from reliable Surface Protection Film Manufacturers in India. The manufacturers of surface protection films make use latest machinery and equipment, for ensuring that fabricating the surface protection films in streamlined manner.

Tecno phones in these African countries have malware, but there's a fix
by Oluwanifemi Kolawole | Aug 26, 2020
Reports have it that several Tecno Android phones have a pre-installed malware called Triada. These mobile devices were found in some African countries — Ethiopia, Egypt, Cameroon, South Africa, and Ghana — by an anti-fraud company, Upstream.
Tecno has since admitted to the existence of this mobile security risk but only affirms to it being an old malicious ware that was discovered in March 2018 and has since been fixed.
According to Upstream, Triada poses a security risk by installing a malicious code called xHelper on the device; this code finds and accepts some fraudulent subscriptions without the user's knowledge. Apparently such subscriptions, when successful, consume airtime.
The anti-fraud company estimates that about 200,000 Tecno smartphones are affected even though this threat was only found on 53,000 phones.
Reacting to this, the phone manufacturer claims that the said threat, xHelper was first detected in 2019 and has gotten a fix since November of the same year. It however, claims that no case of the malware has been reported after then.
Even though Triada could be fixed with just a system upgrade, users experiencing the new risk will have to download and install an Over The Air (OTA) fix on their phone, or contact the manufacturer's after-sales service support for assistance. This basically forces a system upgrade even if none came with the device.
Meanwhile, Tecno mentions that it has measures in place to prevent the re-occurrence of such security risk by ensuring that installed software on each device runs through a series of rigorous security checks.
Blaming mobile security risks that escape multiple manufacturing checks on third parties is common to phone manufacturers. Just one month ago, some fast-charging USB chargers were discovered to be susceptible to hackers. Unfortunately, these incidents have been common to some Chinese brands.
It does no good to know that African smartphone markets are the most exposed to these malware risks. This is because the highest number of smartphones on the continent are Transsion-owned — Tecno and Infinix.
It is thus expected that smartphone users carry out regular and periodical system upgrade to protect themselves from unsuspected threats of this kind. https://zp-pdl.com/online-payday-loans-cash-advances.php http://www.otc-certified-store.com/antidepressants-medicine-europe.html https://zp-pdl.com/online-payday-loans-in-america.php http://www.otc-certified-store.com/antiparasitic-medicine-usa.html https://zp-pdl.com/get-a-next-business-day-payday-loan.php займ на яндекс деньги без привязки картызайм без паспортных данныхцелевой займ

The banality of Methodist evil
Boycott against goods emanating from settlements shows where the rancid, global campaign against the Jewish state is heading.
By ROBIN SHEPHERD
BetEl Factory 311. (photo credit: Ariel Jerozolimski/The Jerusalem Post)
The decision last week by the Methodist Church of Britain to launch a boycott against goods emanating from settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem will send a shiver down the spine of anyone with a feel for where the rancid, global campaign against the Jewish state is currently heading.
The boycott will involve transactions of the church itself, and extends to encouraging all affiliated Methodists to follow suit. The Methodists boycott no other country.
The fact that an institution professing allegiance to values of love, truth and justice should have succumbed to an agenda of hatred, hypocrisy and barbarism is sadly emblematic of the degraded spirit of our times, and of the moral inversions which blow through them.
But who, these days, can really be surprised about such happenings in modern Europe? It is only the banality, to appropriate Hannah Arendt, of this particular evil that still has the power to shock us. For, in watching the discussions at the Methodist Conference which approved the boycott, there was little in the way of the visceral hatred of Israel which we have become so accustomed to seeing in academic settings or in the trade unions. Here was a group of almost stereotypically ordinary, middle-class, English Christians calmly reciting every hackneyed anti-Israeli calumny in the book.
"What is happening in Palestine today is what was happening in South Africa in the recent past," one delegate said. Another spoke of the "66 percent of 9- to 12-month-old babies [that] are anemic in Gaza."
Yet another described a picture, which she held up in front of her, of a small boy "with large eyes" and "deep pain" in those eyes. "This little boy lives in Gaza," she said ominously, adding (without irony) that the conference should "speak and act for those whose voices are not heard."
Later, the point was repeated with one speaker lamenting the position of the Palestinians who have "no one to tell of what they're going through."
There was a lecture on the Old Testament, the Jews as "the chosen people," the children of Abraham, and the revelations of Jesus: "Jesus... never speaks of the land or owning it; he speaks of the kingdom and joining it," said the delegate joyfully. "...He teaches us God is not a racist God [her emphasis] who has favorites. God loves all his children [her emphasis] and blesses them."
A student of archeology from the University of Manchester protested against accusations of one-sidedness in a report on the conflict which underpinned the boycott resolution: "No conflict is ever one-sided, " he said before concluding, literally seconds later, that "perhaps it is not the report that is one-sided, but simply the conflict."
IF TOTAL illogicality, intimations about the dangers of Jews worshiping a racist God, preposterous assertions about the Palestinian cause not getting an airing in the outside world and depraved and asinine comparisons with apartheid South Africa were the stock in trade of the ordinary delegates, the church's sophisticates were not to be outdone.
Here is the Rev. Graham Carter, the chairman of the working group that produced the initial report. He is speaking at the end of the first debate, just after having made his (pro forma?) reference to upholding the right of Israel to exist: "We didn't go through the list of criticizing other governments, because there was no place to stop," he said. "We could have criticized the United States for its past unquestioning support of the government of Israel. We could have questioned our own government for the equivocality of its approach. Where would we stop? So we concentrated simply on the situation in Palestine itself."
In referring to criticism of governments around the world other than Israel, one might have expected that this was his cue to explain why Israel had been singled out. Not a bit of it. It never appeared to occur to him that the question of gross hypocrisy might be an issue. His only thoughts about other governments concerned the sense in which they might have been criticized for complicity in Israeli behavior! But it is when he comes to the question of anti- Semitism that he meets his undoing. "I want to state quite clearly and categorically that there is no hint of anti-Semitism in what we have said or in what we intend," he stated boldly. "If other people want to do things like that, that is their problem. It is not our problem as a Methodist church. We need to be honest about where stand and what we feel. And if we are concerned about anti-Semitism, why don't we talk about the anti-Islam approach?" I leave it to others to judge whether there is a "hint of anti-Semitism" in what they have said or intended.
But, in so far as his comments make any sense at all, one way of summarizing the rest could be as follows: "If this campaign against Israel results in more anti-Semitism, we in the Methodist Church wash our hands of it. We'll act, and the Jews can take the consequences.
And what's the big deal about anti-Semitism anyway? Can't we talk about Islamophobia."
I DID not have the pleasure of talking to the Rev.
Carter, who would certainly reject any suggestion of wrongdoing, let alone that he had taken his church down the road to bigotry. But I did speak to the Methodist Church's head of media relations, Anna Drew, whose well prepared brief offered a lesson in where things have gone so badly wrong.
"Do you have any boycotts of other countries in the world, Saudi Arabia for example, where Christianity is banned?" I asked.
"Almost certainly not," she said.
"So why have you singled out the Jewish state?" I asked.
"We have not singled out the Jewish state," she replied, saying that the boycott was not against Israel, merely against the occupied territories.
And so the conversation went on, going round and round in circles as Drew summoned up every ounce of conceivable pedantry to argue that singling out the policy of a particular country was substantially different from singling out the country itself, even though such a boycott applied to no other country or its policies.
"Don't you realize that you're joining a massive global campaign against Israel?" I asked.
"There isn't a campaign against Israel," she replied firmly. "It's not as simple as that."
"You don't accept that you've just jumped on a fashionable bandwagon?" I asked in amazement.
"We are the first church... to do this... so we are not being fashionable," she replied.
At which point, what can you really say? Overall, a church that behaves in the manner of the Methodists has buried its credibility under a gigantic dunghill of intransigence, pedantry, lies and distortions.
But let us not allow this matter to rest with a mere recognition of whom and what they have chosen to become.
If the Methodist Church is to launch a boycott of Israel, let Israel respond in kind: Ban their officials from entering; deport their missionaries; block their funds; close down their offices; and tax their churches.
If it's war, it's war. The aggressor must pay a price.

2023: Why Peter Obi administration will be disastrous – Saraki
Former Senate President, Bukola Saraki has expressed fear that if the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi is elected president in 2023, his administration will be characterized by disaster.
The former lawmaker, who spoke in an interview with Arise TV on Monday, said the Labour Party has no candidates to fill up the parliamentary seats, which according to him may not go well if the party wins the presidential poll.
Saraki, a former governor of Kwara State, said if Obi is elected President without having the majority in the National Assembly, the relationship between the two arms of government may affect good governance.
He said, "Don't forget that in Nigeria, we run a presidential system of government. When you go to the ballot box on the day of elections, you are voting for a party.
"A party where from day 1, you don't have candidates for the parliamentary seats, already there is a recipe for disaster because you know that the executive and the legislature are not going to have the majority".

Q: Mixed default and named exports in Node with ES5 syntax All my experience with exporting/importing modules has come in ES6 using export and import, where you can do something like this to have a single module export a default function as well as separate named functions.
// module.js
export default mainFunction
export { namedFunction }

// main.js
import mainFunction from 'functions'
mainFunction()

import { namedFunction } from 'function'
namedFunction()

However I can't figure out how to do this with ES5 style imports using module.exports and require. As far as I understand, I can export either a single default:
// module.js
module.exports = function mainFunction() {}

// main.js
const mainFunction = require('module.js')

Or I can create named exports:
// module.js
module.exports = {
  namedFunction: function() {}
}

// main.js
const namedFunction = require('module.js').namedFunction

But I can't do both. I thought I could maybe name one of the exports "default" like this, but it doesn't work
// module.js
module.exports = {
  default: function() {},
  namedFunction: function() {}
}

// main.js
const mainFunction = require('module.js') // does not work
const mainFunction = require('module.js').default // works, but not what I want
const namedFunction = require('module.js').namedFunction

How can I accomplish this dual default/named export with ES5?

A: Just re-assign exports to module.exports
Like:
//name.js

const NameType = {
  foo: "bar",
};

function Name(name) {
  this.name = name;
}

module.exports = Name; // assign default export to Name
exports = module.exports; // re-assign exports to point it to the updated location.

exports.NameType = NameType; // now you can use named export as usual

In another file you can import like:
const Name = require("./name");
const { NameType } = require("./name");

This works because by default module = { exports: {} } and exports = module.exports
Reference: Difference between "module.exports" and "exports" in the CommonJs Module System

A: You want to assign the value of module.exports to be your default function, and then put all the named exports as properties on that function.
const defaultFunction = () => { console.log('default!'); };
const namedFunction1 = () => { console.log('1!'); };
const namedFunction2 = () => { console.log('2!'); };

const myModule = module.exports = defaultFunction;
myModule.namedFunction1 = namedFunction1;
myModule.namedFunction2 = namedFunction2;

Let's say that was in myModule.js. Then you can do this:
const myModule = require('./myModule');
myModule(); // Prints: 'default!'
myModule.namedFunction1(); // Prints: '1!'

A: If you don't want to repeat the named exports, you can always do something like
module.exports = defaultFunction;
module.exports = Object.assign(module.exports, {
    namedFunction1,
    namedFunction2,
});

Then you can require as normal;
const myModule = require('./myModule');
myModule();
myModule.namedFunction1();

Last weekend, at a tennis tournament in Hawaii, a male soloist sang a version of the German national anthem once prized by the Nazis. Andrea Petkovic said it was one of the worst experiences of her life.
Last weekend, at a tennis tournament in Hawaii, a male soloist accidentally proclaimed German supremacy, traumatizing several tennis players by singing a version of the German national anthem once prized by the Nazis. The gaffe occurred at the Fed Cup, one of the premier events in women's tennis. "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, über alles in der Welt," he sang. "Germany, Germany above all—above everything in the world." Andrea Petkovic, a top German player, said it was one of the worst experiences of her life.
Provocation aside, von Notz had a larger point to make about the way nationalist movements exploit popular culture. Although the Associated Press and the BBC reported that the United States Tennis Association had permitted the singing of a "Nazi-era anthem," the objectionable stanzas actually come from an 1841 song. The "Deutschlandlied," or "Song of Germany," was officially adopted as an anthem in 1922. During the short-lived but democratic Weimar Republic, it was considered a proclamation of liberal values like freedom and justice. "It got misinterpreted by the nationalists," von Notz told me. "And this, from my point of view, is the connection." His concern is not that America has become a fascist state but rather that political language, when misused, can turn healthy patriotism into toxic nationalism.
The "Deutschlandlied" was written by a poet named Hoffmann von Fallersleben, "a good bourgeois liberal," according to the German cultural historian Jost Hermand, a retired professor at the University of Wisconsin. Von Fallersleben set his stanzas to the tune of an imperial anthem by Joseph Haydn, but imperialism wasn't what he had in mind. The mid-nineteenth century was "a period of longing" for a sense of shared identity, Hermand said, because Germanic territories were fragmented into thirty-six separate states. In context, the three stanzas were, if not exactly progressive, unsurprisingly patriotic. The first began with "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles" and named the rivers that enclosed German-speaking lands. The second praised "German women, German loyalty, German wine, and German song." Only the third stanza remains official today. "Unity and justice and freedom are the foundation of happiness," it declares.
The same evolutionary process has shaped patriotic music in the United States. Earlier this month, at the fifty-first Super Bowl, in Houston, before pretending to jump off the stadium's roof, Lady Gaga sang verses from "God Bless America" and "This Land Is Your Land," two songs that have been adapted and appropriated by both the left and the right.
Hermand, the retired professor, is eighty-six, and he remembers singing all three verses as a boy. He was one of several million children who joined the Hitler Youth. "I don't think we were reflecting on that," he said. "It was played on the radio often, of course, especially during the war." He now feels that the Nazis hijacked the song. "There was no imperialistic tendency behind it, before the Nazis," he told me. After Germany surrendered, the U.S. helped implement "denazification" efforts; the first two verses were no longer sung. Still, some Germans thought a new country could be built on "unity and justice and freedom." "I was also opposed, after the war, that it should become the national anthem," Hermand said.

Middle/Junior & High School Guide
Tulsa Public Schools approached DBC to completely refresh their School Guide for Middle/Junior and High Schools. This district-wide publication highlights the programs and unique offerings of each school. There were two primary goals for the design and presentation of this unique piece.
First and foremost was establishing a consistent page layout that would accommodate the variety of content to be presented. Each school is highlighted in its own spread. The number of programs, highlights, activities varied greatly from school to school. A page layout that maintained consistency while being flexible was critical to the success of the publication. Visually blocking off areas for specific content was key to managing the variation while communicating common information on each individual school spread.
Our second goal was to begin to establish a new direction for print materials. Working from the existing brand guidelines, this visual direction would be the foundation for internal and external marketing and branding efforts going forward. Allowing the internal TPS marketing and design groups to begin to provide a much needed level of consistency between materials designed and distributed throughout the district for over 23 schools.
Front and Back cover execution. The design element aligned and wrapped to the back. These shapes and configurations were used throughout the design in various ways to provide unique building-block-style elements that could be carried through to other internal and external designs.
Small sampling of various inside spreads showing the use of blocks of color and the rounded corner boxes that continue the motif started on the cover.
Sampling of Middle/Junior High School Spreads. Each school provided similar information to populate into the common areas. However, no two schools are alike, the sections needed to be flexible enough to accommodate the copy and photography provided by each school.
Sampling of High School Spreads. The same basic layout areas established for the Middle/Junior School pages remains, however we were often presented with a bit more content to pack into the space.

Cascading waterfalls, crystal clear waters, an abundance of fruits and vegetables, flowers in every colour of the rainbow, lush rainforests… No, it is not the Garden of Eden. It is the beautiful nature island, Dominica.
Dominica, from the Latin word for Sunday, the day that Columbus set foot on its shores six centuries ago, is said to be the youngest of the Caribbean islands. The first inhabitants of Dominica, the Arawaks, were expelled by the Kalinago (Caribs) who came to the island voluntarily or in search of a new home have been forced out by the Europeans as they settled elsewhere in the Caribbean. They called their new home Wai'tu kubuli –Tall is her body – in reference to the mountainous terrain. The Carib people in the Commonwealth of Dominica survived the many battles between the British and the French and can still be found weaving baskets or digging out canoes in the north-eastern section of the island known as the Carib Territory.

For great ambiance and the finest in wines and champagnes, Fusion Village Restaurant Dominica offers a wide selection. Fusion Village Restaurant is located in Roseau, the capital of Dominica. Fusion Village Bar is located in a quaint Creole cottage which is of historic importance in Dominica. The Restaurant sits in a cobble stone backyard that has been tastefully decorated.
Throughout the 1600s both the British and the French were unsuccessful in their attempts to capture Dominica. The Treaty of Paris (1793) handed Dominica over to the United Kingdom from France and in 1805 it was made a British colony. Dominica formed part of the ill-fated West Indies Federation from 1958 to 1962 after which it was granted Associate statehood. Full independence finally came on November 3, 1978.
Dominica's demography although diverse is dominated by descendants of African slaves. About 3,000 Caribs remain. Recently there has been a large influx of Haitians seeking refuge from economic oppression in their country. The population estimated at 69,000 in July 2006 is steadily dwindling due to migration. More significant is the fact that the island boasts of an average incidence of centenarians that is tripled that of developed countries. The life expectancy is 72 years for males and 78 for females.
The French influence on the daily lives of Dominica people is still very strong. The mass vernacular is a French creole called Patwa and Roman Catholicism is practised by approximately 80% of the population. Cocoy, an English dialect, is spoken in the north-eastern communities of Wesley, Woodford Hill and Marigot. Many of the family and place names in Dominica are of French origin. The historic French dominance has also given rise to a vibrant and unique cultural climate that can be felt particularly on Creole Day and during independence celebrations when food, dress, and music come alive.
Education is compulsory for all between the ages of 5 and 15. The literacy rate in Dominica stands at 94%. Early childhood education in the Commonwealth of Dominica is undertaken by private entities, particularly the churches, throughout the island. Currently, there are approximately 55 primary schools and 15 secondary schools on island. The Dominica State College is the only local tertiary learning institution. The University of the West Indies has a distance education centre in the vicinity of Roseau and there are two medical schools: Ross University in the town of Portsmouth and All Saints' University of Medicine in the heart of Roseau. There are quite a few opportunities for studying abroad offered by both the Dominican and friendly governments.
Dominica is currently ranked 71st on the Human Development Index (HDI) scale with a rating of 0.798. According to a 2006 government report there is 30% poverty and 23% unemployment. Dominica's Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, stood at 478 million according to a 2005 estimate.
Agriculture has been the mainstay of the Dominica economy since the late nineteenth century lead first by lime then by bananas in the 1900s. About a quarter of the island's workforce is employed in the agricultural sector. Recent developments such as the World Trade Organization's (WTO) ruling against preferential treatment have weakened an industry that was already on the decline.
Hence the new thrust to promote Dominica as an ecotourism destination. A hike through the Valley of Desolation, a scenic ride on the aerial tram, a boat ride up the Indian river, a dip in the warm springs at Wotten Waven, or a relaxing evening at the Jungle Bay Resort, are just the beginning of the countless opportunities for the nature loving tourist. It is claimed that Dominica is just as beautiful under the sea as it is on land. Two of the island's best scuba diving spots have been ranked among the best in the world. In 1995, the Morne Trois Pitons National Park was accorded World Heritage Site status.
The tropical forests found in Dominica are home to some of the most awesome and unique flora and fauna and fruits of all flavours. The Sisserou or Imperial (Amazona imperialis) and the Red-necked or Jacquot (Amazona arausiaca) parrots are indigenous to Dominica. The two Dominica parrots are mainly found in the Syndicate area in the Northern Forest Reserve near the town of Portsmouth. The Sisserou, the larger of the two, can be found at higher elevations, is the national bird and is featured on the coat of arms and the national flag. It represents Dominica aspiration to higher heights and aspirations. The Barn Owl, the Mountain Whistler, the Broad-winged Hawk, and various species of the humming bird such as the Purple-throated Carib can also be spotted on island. The Mountain Chicken or crapaud, a local delicacy, is also native to Dominica. The small, red, yet beautiful Bwa Kwaib (Sabinea carinalis) is the national fl

Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) used as Thermal Covers to Insulate Fernox inline System Filters for use on central heating systems
Client: Fernox
EPP Thermal Covers fully encapsulate inline filters to keep system heat loss to a minimum.
The introduction of a thermal cover for a system filter is part of a broader initiative within the UK home building industry as developers recognise the importance of maintaining energy efficiency and reducing fuel wastage in domestic heating systems. Consumers are increasingly ranking the energy rating of a house as an important factor in the decision-making process when buying a home.
EPP is widely used in the HVAC industry as it is known to offer:
A strong and durable enclosure
Reduced heat loss
Greater heating system efficiency
Protection from internal components and hot surfaces
Fernox, a global manufacturer of chemical water treatment and engineered filtration products, approached Foam Products to discuss an opportunity to design and manufacture thermal covers for two of its inline system filters:
The nickel plated, brass TF1 Omega Filter
The composite plastic TF1 Total Filter
Fernox requirements included strength, durability, protection and improvements in the performance of current systems.
Foam Products developed a solution for each filter, both designs consisted of two parts (a male and female) that would push together to fully encapsulate the premium system filters. Various locator points were included on the moulded parts to ensure the correct alignment when fitted around the system filters.
The locator points on the original design were modified to provide a resistance fit to hold the two parts firmly together without the need for additional fixtures or fittings. The use of medium density Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) offered the water filters excellent protection and thermal insulation to reduce heat transfer.
The presentation to Fernox included a series of 3D CAD drawings and once approved, the drawings were sent to one of the in-house Computer Numeric Control (CNC) milling machines where EPP prototypes were produced. The EPP samples were then tested for fit and function prior to final tooling.
The customised EPP thermal covers supplied to Fernox are designed to last the life of the filters. They will insulate and protect the system filter year–after-year without losing their integrity or performance.
Additionally, after the approval of the new EPP parts, Fernox approached Foam Products to help source an outer corrugated printed carton packaging for both models of the filter covers. Foam Products worked with colleagues at DS Smith Packaging in Wellingborough, UK to produce the corrugated carton packaging.
As an added advantage, both the EPP covers and the corrugated outer carton supplied by DS Smith are fully recyclable at the end of their useful life.
About Fernox
Fernox is a leading, global manufacturer of chemical water treatment and engineered filtration products. Headquartered in Woking, UK and with offices throughout Europe, the US and China, Fernox has been a pioneer of innovative and effective chemical water treatment and filter technology.
