Sometimes friends, family or ever foes can show up on your doorstep and unknowingly be the messenger that God has sent by His Will to summon your love, faith and hope of a Charity needed to be given to someone lost or lonely languishing without confidence instilling gloom by their actions and activities. There just might be the next Blessed soon to be Saint Teresa begging for alms to soothe the ones we are afraid to approach and mingle with because we think disastrous thoughts when their smile states otherwise.
Christ was sitting by a Church in downtown Miami asking for alms with an outstretched hand with a curious frown of needed conversation. Fittingly, his name was Chris and he needed to hear me ask if mom and dad are still alive. He needed to know God hears every prayer he asks for never doubting or denying by simply praying silently in practice to proclaim. I sat down with him and gave him my last dollar but I encouraged his love of God after admitting he was a life-long believer raised in the faith with brothers and sisters who know nothing of where their seventy-three-year-old super hero brother is.
I gave him a shirt with praying hands on the back saying, "The Good Life" as he sat in wonder of how I gave him his exact size of pants to wear. Here is the smile he gave into tears of someone coming and knocking on the door of heaven sitting down with Chris the homeless man who was unwilling to call a sister or brother he had left in the world so we simply talked and prayed of peace by living goodwill. Amen.
Let us pray Lord instill in us everlasting prayer to practice proclaiming Charity. Prayers of healing for Dr. John. Prayers for my Family of Goodwill across the world who listen on Roku devices and Closer Walk Media.com friends like Oslo, Norway Olemic Bondevik. Prayers for Dr. Cruz†Peluca OHAM. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

The Transformation of the World

A panoramic global history of the nineteenth century A monumental history of the nineteenth century, The Transformation of the World offers a panoramic and multifaceted portrait of a world in transition. Jürgen Osterhammel, an eminent scholar who has been called the Braudel of the nineteenth century, moves beyond conventional Eurocentric and chronological accounts of the era, presenting instead a truly global history of breathtaking scope and towering erudition. He examines the powerful and complex forces that drove global change during the "long nineteenth century," taking readers from New York to New Delhi, from the Latin American revolutions to the Taiping Rebellion, from the perils and promise of Europe's transatlantic labor markets to the hardships endured by nomadic, tribal peoples across the planet. Osterhammel describes a world increasingly networked by the telegraph, the steamship, and the railways. He explores the changing relationship between human beings and nature, looks at the importance of cities, explains the role slavery and its abolition played in the emergence of new nations, challenges the widely held belief that the nineteenth century witnessed the triumph of the nation-state, and much more. This is the highly anticipated English edition of the spectacularly successful and critically acclaimed German book, which is also being translated into Chinese, Polish, Russian, and French. Indispensable for any historian, The Transformation of the World sheds important new light on this momentous epoch, showing how the nineteenth century paved the way for the global catastrophes of the twentieth century, yet how it also gave rise to pacifism, liberalism, the trade union, and a host of other crucial developments.

As one of the most complexly divisive periods in American history, Reconstruction has been the subject of a rich scholarship. Historians have studied the period's racial views, political maneuverings, divisions between labor and capital, debates about woman suffrage, and of course its struggle between freed slaves and their former masters. Yet, on each of these fronts scholarship has attended overwhelmingly to the eastern United States, especially the South, thereby neglecting important transnational linkages. This volume, the first of its kind, will examine Reconstruction's global connections and contexts in ways that, while honoring the field's accomplishments, move it beyond its southern focus. The volume will bring together prominent and emerging scholars to showcase the deepening interplay between scholarships on Reconstruction and on America's place in world history. Through these essays, Reconstruction in a Globalizing World will engage two dynamic fields of study to the benefit of them both. By demonstrating that the South and the eastern United States were connected to other parts of the globe in complex and important ways, the volume will challenge scholars of Reconstruction to look outwards. Likewise, examining these same connections will compel transnationally-minded scholars to reconsider Reconstruction as a pivotal era in the shaping of the United States' relations with the rest of the world.

International Organizations play a pivotal role on the modern global stage and have done, this book argues, since the beginning of the 20th century. This volume offers the first historical exploration into the formative years of international public administrations, covering the birth of the League of Nations and the emergence of the second generation that still shape international politics today such as the UN, NATO and OECD. Centring on Europe, where the multilaterization of international relations played out more intensely in the mid-20th century than in other parts of the world, it demonstrates a broad range of historiographical and methodological approaches to institutions in international history. The book argues that after several 'turns' (cultural, linguistic, material, transnational), international history is now better equipped to restate its core questions of policy and power with a view to their institutional dimensions. Making use of new approaches in the field, this book develops an understanding of the specific powers and roles of IO-administrations by delving into their institutional make-up.

Author: Ellen Hillbom
History teaches us that agricultural growth and development is necessary for achieving overall better living conditions in all societies. Although this process may seem homogenous when looked at from the outside, it is full of diversity within. This book captures this diversity by presenting eleven independent case studies ranging over time and space. By comparing outcomes, attempts are made to draw general conclusion and lessons about the agricultural transformation process.

Author: Bruce Mazlish
Publisher: Transaction Publishers
In Globalization and Transformation, Bruce Mazlish examines developments in contemporary warfare, economy, technology, and religion as fundamental factors in human experience that have accelerated global change in recent years. Continuing the analysis he began in Reflections on the Modern and the Global, Mazlish delves into human history, examining who we were so as to help us understand who we are today. Early in the volume, Mazlish highlights the British historian Geoffrey Barraclough, who foresaw the trajectory of world events that gave rise to the "New Global History." He also examines humanity's progress, reminding us of contemporary globalization's precursors: the theories of Charles Darwin; the concept of the global and the local coupled with inquiry into the concept of parts and wholes; merchant empires, such as the English and Dutch East India companies that crisscrossed the ocean in pursuit of profits and power; anti-globalization; and the linkage of globalization to the very concept of humanity. Though globalization is a complex concept, and versatile in its applications, Mazlish focuses on its transformational characteristics, noting that globalization's impact is not uniform across society's culture, politics, or economics. Some parts of the world have yet to accept the challenge to their past traditions. These stimulating essays offer new insights into a major phenomenon of our time.

Author: Jeffrey A. Engel
A one-of-a-kind anthology of primary texts in American foreign relations How should America wield its enormous power beyond its borders? Should it adhere to grand principles or act on narrow self-interest? Should it partner with other nations or avoid entangling alliances? Americans have been grappling with questions like these throughout the nation's history, and especially since the emergence of the United States as a major world power in the late nineteenth century. America in the World illuminates this history by capturing the diverse voices and viewpoints of some of the most colorful and eloquent people who participated in these momentous debates. Spanning the era from the Gilded Age to the Obama years, this unique reader collects more than two hundred documents—everything from presidential addresses and diplomatic cables to political cartoons and song lyrics. It encompasses various phases of American diplomatic history that are typically treated separately, such as the First World War, the Cold War, and 9/11. The book presents the perspectives of elite policymakers—presidents, secretaries of state, generals, and diplomats—alongside those of other kinds of Americans, such as newspaper columnists, clergymen, songwriters, poets, and novelists. It also features numerous documents from other countries, illustrating how foreigners viewed America's role in the world. Ideal for classroom use, America in the World sheds light on the complex interplay of political, economic, ideological, and cultural factors underlying the exercise of American power on the global stage. Includes more than two hundred documents from the late nineteenth century to today Looks at everything from presidential addresses to political cartoons and song lyrics Presents diverse perspectives, from elite policymakers to clergymen and novelists Features documents from outside the United States, illustrating how people in other countries viewed America's role in the world

Author: Mark C Carnes
Publisher: Columbia University Press
Beginning with an analysis of cultural themes and ending with a discussion of evolving and expanding political and corporate institutions, The Columbia History of Post-World War II America addresses changes in America's response to the outside world; the merging of psychological states and social patterns in memorial culture, scandal culture, and consumer culture; the intersection of social practices and governmental policies; the effect of technological change on society and politics; and the intersection of changing belief systems and technological development, among other issues. Many had feared that Orwellian institutions would crush the individual in the postwar era, but a major theme of this book is the persistence of individuality and diversity. Trends toward institutional bigness and standardization have coexisted with and sometimes have given rise to a countervailing pattern of individualized expression and consumption. Today Americans are exposed to more kinds of images and music, choose from an infinite variety of products, and have a wide range of options in terms of social and sexual arrangements. In short, they enjoy more ways to express their individuality despite the ascendancy of immense global corporations, and this volume imaginatively explores every facet of this unique American experience.
Labour Intensive Industrialization in Global History

studies of the history of indigenous industries have revealed that Japan's modern

traditional industries in Japan before the First World War (Nakamura 1971/1983).
... Hudson's 2004 paper extended this view to the latter half of the nineteenth
century.
Author: Gareth Austin
The prevailing view of industrialization has focussed on technology, capital, entrepreneurship and the institutions that enabled them to be deployed. Labour was often equated with other factors of production, and assigned a relatively passive role. Yet it was labour absorption and the improvement of the quality of labour over the course of several centuries that underscored the timing, pace and quality of global industrialization. While science and technology developed in the West and whereas the use of fossil fuels, especially coal and oil, were vital to this process, the more recent history has been underpinned by the development of comparatively resource- and energy-saving technology, without which the diffusion of industrialization would not have been possible. The labour-intensive, resource-saving path, which emerged in East Asia under the influence of Western technology and institutions, and is diffusing across the world, suggests the most realistic route humans could take for a further diffusion of industrialization, which might respond to the rising expectations of living standards without catastrophic environmental degradation.

Deforestation, soil runoff, salination, pollution. While recurrent themes of the contemporary world, they are not new to us. In this broad sweeping review of the environmental impacts of human settlement and development worldwide over the past 5,000 years, Sing C. Chew shows that these processes are as old as civilization itself. With examples ranging from Ancient Mesopotamia to Malaya, Mycenaean Greece to Ming China, Chew shows that the processes of population growth, intensive resource accumulation, and urbanization in ancient and modern societies almost universally bring on ecological disaster, which often contributes to the decline and fall of that society. He then turns his eye to the development of the modern European world-system and its impact on the environment. Challenging us to change these long-term trends, Chew also traces the existence of environmental conservation ideas and movements over the span of 5,000 years. Can we do it? Look at Chew's evidence of the past five millennia and decide. Ideal for courses in environmental history, anthropology, and sociology, and world-systems theory.

Author: Vanessa Ogle
Publisher: Harvard University Press
"This book is a revisionist account of attempts to unify clock times, calendars, and social time, and a methodological intervention in discussions about writing global and transnational history. The book uses the reform of time between 1870 and 1950 as a lens through which to understand the dynamics of globalization. Based on research in archives around the world in multiple languages, individual chapters take the story of uniform time to France and Germany, Britain, the British Empire/German colonies/Latin America, British India, Arab elites in the Levant, Muslim scholars in Egypt, and to the League of Nations. The author shows how cross-border flows of ideas and concepts of uniform time resulted in a nationalization and regionalization of temporal identities. As a consequence, uniform, accurate clock time remained nonstandardized, unstable, and incomplete as late as the 1930s and 1940s. Calendar reform, just as vivid and vast a field of activism as clock time, never came to pass altogether due to strong national and religious objections to a uniform World Calendar. When ideas about uniform time moved across borders and continents, they often did so along lateral, informal trajectories of transmission. Local initiatives often preceded national time politics. Top-down attempts to devise time reform schemes at international conferences, to implement them nationally, and assure application in the most remote local contexts rarely succeeded. Rather, globalization disheveled such hierarchies of the international, the national, and the local. The book, then, emphasizes the importance of nationalism and states as well as attention to scale in writing the history of global flows and connections"--

Author: Meg Jacobs
In a series of fascinating essays that explore topics in American politics from the nation's founding to the present day , The Democratic Experiment opens up exciting new avenues for historical research while offering bold claims about the tensions that have animated American public life. Revealing the fierce struggles that have taken place over the role of the federal government and the character of representative democracy, the authors trace the contested and dynamic evolution of the national polity. The contributors, who represent the leading new voices in the revitalized field of American political history, offer original interpretations of the nation's political past by blending methodological insights from the new institutionalism in the social sciences and studies of political culture. They tackle topics as wide-ranging as the role of personal character of political elites in the Early Republic, to the importance of courts in building a modern regulatory state, to the centrality of local political institutions in the late twentieth century. Placing these essays side by side encourages the asking of new questions about the forces that have shaped American politics over time. An unparalleled example of the new political history in action, this book will be vastly influential in the field. In addition to the editors, the contributors are Brian Balogh, Sven Beckert, Rebecca Edwards, Joanne B. Freeman, Richard R. John, Ira Katznelson, James T. Kloppenberg, Matthew D. Lassiter, Thomas J. Sugrue, Michael Vorenberg, and Michael Willrich.

"Refreshingly unpolemical and at times even witty, McNeill's book brims with carefully sifted statistics and brilliant details."—Washington Post Book World The history of the twentieth century is most often told through its world wars, the rise and fall of communism, or its economic upheavals. In his startling new book, J. R. McNeill gives us our first general account of what may prove to be the most significant dimension of the twentieth century: its environmental history. To a degree unprecedented in human history, we have refashioned the earth's air, water, and soil, and the biosphere of which we are a part. Based on exhaustive research, McNeill's story—a compelling blend of anecdotes, data, and shrewd analysis—never preaches: it is our definitive account.

Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet today encouraged Colorado farmers and ranchers to enroll in the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) voluntary Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) to help protect soil, water, and wildlife habitat. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced today USDA will accept 1.7 million acres offered under the 45th CRP general sign-up.
Under CRP, farmers and ranchers plant grasses and trees in fields and along streams or rivers. The plantings prevent soil and nutrients from washing into waterways, reduce soil erosion that may otherwise contribute to poor air and water quality, and provide valuable habitat for wildlife.
Bennet has stressed the importance of conservation programs in the Farm Bill following a series of listening sessions with farmers and ranchers throughout Colorado over the past several years. During the markup of the Farm Bill in the Senate Agriculture Committee, Bennet worked to simplify the conservation title and secured a provision in the bill to provide flexibility that will allow more land owners and producers to use conservation easements to preserve their land's agricultural heritage and open space.

In this article, we will look at how to create a File redirection and make the application point to a new File Path instead of the old one!
Scenario: When I launch this application, and press on the update button, i get this below error dialog which says "Access to a certain path is denied". This can occur in a locked down environment or as a part of the User Account Control, where the user works as a Standard User unless he elevates explicitly.
This application stores the configuration preferences in an ini file which gets saved in the folder C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files\. This is a protected folder and a Standard User will not have permissions to write on it. We will need to change the path to a folder where a normal user will have the access, the %APPDATA% (User Profile's Application Data) folder.
In this post,we will change this file path; make this application to point to the new folder, so that when this file tries to get saved…we do not get an access denied error. CorrectFilePaths Shim exactly helps us in doing so!
Step 1: Launch the Application Compatibility Administrator, and create a new Application Shim. Select CorrectFilePaths Shim and press the parameters button. This will give you options to configure the paths. You will need to use the ADDREDIRECT command.
Step 2: Give the parameters for this shim.
Step 3: Apply the shim and test the application.
Now, when I click on the Save Preferences button, the configuration File gets saved. What happens in background is that, the hard-coded path is redirected to the new one. The User Application Data folder has the write access and hence the file gets created!
This mitigation technique can be used for any file path redirection. If you have any application which is hard-coded and writes to a particular restricted file paths, this technique can make it refer a new path and hence give you access.
If you have issues with Hard-coded registry key paths, then do read this article!

Guerreiro do Divino Amor
Superfictional Sanctuaries
25 May – 7 August 2022
24 May 2022, 18.00
LATE OPENING
The Centre d'Art Contemporain Genève is pleased to present Superfictional Sanctuaries, the first retrospective of Swiss-Brazilian artist, Guerreiro do Divino Amor.
The exhibition premieres The Miracle of Helvetia, a work commissioned by the Centre d'Art Contemporain Genève with the support of the Embassy of Foreign Artists and DAAD Artists-in-Berlin program. As the sixth and latest chapter of the artist's ongoing research project, Superfictions, The Miracle of Helvetia explores what makes up the Swiss collective imagination and national identity.
The Superfictions saga began in Brussels in 2005 aiming to create a 'Superfictional World Atlas'. The research process typically starts in the territory which will become the artist's subject. Guerreiro do Divino Amor combines his own experience with digital archaeology, excavating and reappropriating institutional corporative iconographies and narratives. His Superfictions therefore materialize into films, publications, backlit animated panels, installations and performative conferences. The science fiction aesthetics is a way to shed light on reality and its inner workings.
Six chapters have already been produced by the artist, from Brussels to Rio de Janeiro, all of them being interrelated. At the same time obsessive, grandiose and ironic, these fictional portraits include different perspectives that grasp the historical, social, media-related political and religious identity of a territory. By calling upon collective imagination, the artist reveals the impact that fictions of various kinds have on the development of civilization and how a collective understanding of nations and cities is created.
At the Centre d'Art Contemporain Genève, Guerreiro do Divino Amor presents for the first time all existing Superfictions, turning the institution into a superfictional sanctuary. Moving image works are presented within installations including large-scale backlit panels and sculptures. The Miracle of Helvetia is the central work of the exhibition, taking up three rooms in an immersive temple-like construction.
Guerreiro do Divino Amor (b. 1983, Geneva) lives and works in Rio de Janeiro. He holds a master's degree in architecture. He has participated in the Sorocaba Frestas Trienal and in exhibitions at Iberê Camargo Foundation, Pinacoteca of São Paulo, Casa França-Brasil, MAR, CAC of Vilnius (Lithuania) and Arte Pará 2018. Also in 2018, he held the individual exhibition "Superficções" at Paço das Artes/MIS-SP. He is currently a fellow of the DAAD Artists-in-Berlin program.
Superfictional Sanctuaries is curated by Andrea Bellini and benefits from the support of the Loterie Romande, Embassy of Foreign Artists and DAAD. A publication has been produced for the occasion with the support of DAAD Artists in Berlin program with funds from the German Federal Foreign Office.

Hospitalization Costs of Total Knee Arthroplasty With a Continuous Femoral Nerve Block Provided Only in the Hospital Versus on an Ambulatory Basis: A Retrospective, Case-Control, Cost-Minimization Analysis

Background and Objectives: After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), hospitalization may be shortened by allowing patients to return home with a continuous femoral nerve block (CFNB). This study quantified the hospitalization costs for 10 TKA patients receiving ambulatory CFNB versus a matched cohort of 10 patients who received CFNB only during hospitalization.
Methods: We examined the medical records (n = 125) of patients who underwent a unilateral, primary, tricompartment TKA with a postoperative CFNB by 1 surgeon at one institution in an 18-month period beginning January 2004. Each of the 10 patients discharged home with an ambulatory CFNB (cases) was matched with a patient with a hospital-only CFNB (controls) for age, gender, body mass index, and health status. Financial data were extracted from the hospital microcosting database.
Results: Nine patients with ambulatory CFNB (cases) were discharged home on postoperative day (POD) 1 and 1 on POD 4. Of the controls, 3 were discharged home on POD 3, 6 on POD 4, and 1 on POD 5. The median (range) costs of hospitalization (excluding implant and professional fees) was $5,292 ($4,326-$7,929) for ambulatory cases compared with $7,974 ($6,931-$9,979) for inpatient controls (difference = $2,682, 34% decrease, P < .001). The total charges for hospitalization, the implant, and professional fees was $33,646 ($31,816-$38,468) for cases compared with $39,100 ($36,096-$44,098) for controls (difference = $5,454, 14% decrease, P < .001).
Conclusions: This study provides evidence that ambulatory CFNB for selected patients undergoing TKA has the potential to reduce hospital length of stay and associated costs and charges. However, the current study has significant inherent limitations based on the study design. Additional research is required to replicate these results in a prospective, randomized, controlled trial and to determine whether any savings exceed additional CFNB costs such as from complications, having caregivers provide care at home, and additional hospital/health care provider visits.

Home Local News SLAJ President Speaks Truth to Power
SLAJ President Speaks Truth to Power
SLAJ President, Ahmed Sahid Nasralla
By Christian Conteh
Social media was taken by storm after the SLAJ President spoke truth to power on 18th August 2022 during an engagement hosted by the President of Sierra Leone Julius Maada Bio with Civil Society Organisations including the Sierra Leone Bar association (SLBA) and the Sierra Leone Association of Journalists (SLAJ) at State House in Freetown.
The statement has sparked discussions across the country and predominantly on social media with many calling it timely, factual and bold.
SLAJ President Ahmed Sahid Nasralla called on all Sierra Leoneans to take responsibility for what has happened- the government, the opposition, the security sector, the media, CSOs, traditional and religious leaders and Sierra Leoneans in the Diaspora.
The SLAJ Boss used the opportunity to re-echo the association's condemnation of the unfortunate incidents starting from August 8th to the violent protests of August 10th 2022 whilst expressing SLAJs heartfelt condolences to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives, including police officers, as a result of those incidents.
"Your Excellency If we have a correctional centre as big as Freetown, I would have recommended that we all spend some time there to go through some form of mindset rehabilitation before we are released back to our respective communities and society at large. But since we don't have that, these engagements you have started with key stakeholder groups in the country can suffice. This is the way to go, Your Excellency," Nasralla said.
The SLAJ President further noted that as a nation we need to pipe down noting that we are playing too much politics and the politics is dividing us as a nation across the middle.
"The politics is diverting and distracting Government from focusing on the NEW DIRECTION that you promised Sierra Leoneans. The too much politics is promoting hate and hypocrisy; it is undermining patriotism, nationalism, and peace and national cohesion. The too much politics is eroding our core values of labour and expect, dignity in labour, excellence, dedication to duty, integrity and trust," Nasralla said.
He called on President Bio as Father of the nation to be the last person to get angry.
"If you want to get angry at all. Your approach in response to this unfortunate incident in the country should be conciliatory in tone and in action. Tell your people that you understand the problems of this country and you are doing something about that. Tell them in the language they understand. And stress that that doesn't mean people should take the law into their hands," Nasralla said.
Nasralla further called on all stakeholders to sit down and talk about these problems and let everyone play a role in addressing them.
"In the midst of our problems let us sit down and talk. Lek we kin say pa krio- mek we sidon talk man to man. Let us engage. It is not a sign of weakness. It is STRENGTH. You break down recalcitrant and ill-motivated people when you talk with them rather than talk to them or talk at them."
"As leader of a smaller but very troublesome community within the bigger Sierra Leone community that is the approach I am using and it is yielding good results for the media in Sierra Leone. Under your leadership, we have achieved great things for the media in Sierra Leone. I cannot solve the problems of the media because they are many. They are like onion shells, you peel one layer another layer appears. I can only do my best. The same with you, Mr. President. You can only do your best and posterity will judge you," Nasralla said
He used the opportunity to call for an independent and impartial inquiry into the incidents of August 10th to get to the bottom of the underlying issues and let the law take its just course.
"Images of the August 10th violent protests were shown on international media screens across the world, and now they are also showing images and reporting news stories of extra-judicial killings and unlawful arrests and detention of civilians. This is not good for our country. This is not good for your leadership. Those are the things the international community will use to evaluate us and that is not the Sierra Leone we all know and love," the SLAJ President said.
Speaking directly to the opposition, Nasralla pleaded with them to change their approach. As an opposition, he said their responsibility is to provide an alternative to government.
"If government say they are going to build a bridge from Freetown across to Lungi and it cost us X amount and it will take Y years to complete, we expect our opposition to give us an alternative. Yes, it is good to have a bridge to Lungi but it is a long-term project with huge capital. As an opposition, and if we were in government, we will focus on the immediate needs by procuring 2 or 3 ferries; it will cost us less, and it will ease the transportation challenges to and fro Lungi in the interim. This is the kind of opposition we want. 'Nor to Opposition wea just de go en hol meeting all over the place and fan ethnic rivalry and say den wan ya we de pull dem na power by all means.'" he said
He noted that he does not remember the opposition condemning and calling on the public to disregard the invectives, inciting audios and videos coming from Adebayor and his likes, all of which basically make the elected Government unpopular and favour them as Opposition.
"The Government is stretching its hand for dialogue, reach out and grab it. The role of the Opposition is not to undermine the Government of the day but to work with it in the interest of the general good," he stressed.
Addressing compatriots in the Diaspora, Nasralla called on them to pipe down. He revealed that before now they were a blessing to our country through their endless and much-needed remittances to family members and loved ones to help cushion the difficult economic situation.
But in recent times, some of them have become something else.
He noted that all they seem to be doing now is sharing vulgar and inciting audios and videos far and wide because they have unlimited data whilst opening unregulated online TVs, radios and Facebook live programs to talk about issues happening at home that they know very little about.
"When you succeed in burning this country, then you will not have a motherland to come back to and you will spend the rest of your lives as slaves in other people's countries," he said.
To his constituency, the media President Nasralla said they are equally liable for what is befalling the nation. The media he says is a clear reflection of our society called Sierra Leone. So we are part of the problem.
To the Sierra Leone Police, he noted that we all morn with them for the loss of their loved ones but called on them to also be concerned about the living.
"We encourage the SLP to show concern for civilian lives lost and for those that have been arrested and detained. Respect their rights to legal representation and justice," he said.

EP 29 - Tyran Smith
In this episode of M&M, Mets chats with Tyran Smith former New Zealand rugby league footballer. Listen in as Tyran goes through the mistakes of youth and the importance of being the 1% who does the 1% to set yourself apart from the pack.

Tune in to the conversation and gain some insight on how to stay resilient and truly commit to your goals.
QUOTES
M [2:00] "Why did you play for so many clubs?"
T [2:05] "I always wanted to challenge myself and learn from new challenges and experiences and people around me."
T [2:30] "Continuing to challenge myself and trying to find the best me as a player."
T [3:10] "You look back and start to see where you took things for granted. Looking back I could have focused and done the little things right and taken advantage of the position I was in."
T [4:00] "When you go to training make sure you give it 100%. Keep doing the little things right."
T [15:00] "A coaching merry go round is what rugby league is today."
T [16:20] "There's no loyalty in rugby league, but there is loyalty in life."
T [17:00] "My purpose as a manager is to empower players."
T [18:00] "If you focus on ego and fame and the fortune (how many people know you and your status) that's fine when you're in your prime, but at the end of your career you're then an empty shell. So you need to know about yourself and follow your beliefs."
T [19:30] "Understand your key fundamentals and fit NRL around that."

T [21:40] "I want to be the best person and the best manager."
M [22:35] "We can never be anyone else, can only be a better version of ourselves."
T [26:00] "Fitness is the last thing, it's mindset. Challenge yourself."
SHOW NOTES
[1:00] Mets tells us a little about Tyran's journey in rugby league so far from player to manager.
[1:20] Tyran has played over 200 games and for 7 clubs. He shares his journey from the start to now.
[3:00] Mets asks Tyran what he has learnt so far.
[4:20] Mets asks Tyran about the challenges he had back when he was playing. Tyran says he didn't focus on the little things. He didn't have an understanding of the little things. He was always focused on the bigger things. He didn't have as much knowledge. He was following those around him instead of searching for or pro actively seeking a better self.
[6:30] You need to be proactive to find the things that make you better and make you a success.
[7:00] Tyran didn't have players he looked up to. His dad is someone he looked up to because of his work ethic.
[7:30] Tyran admired players but never looked up to them.
[8:20] Tyran now looks back at things and thinks would be different if he knew back then what he knows now.
[9:00] Mets and Tyran talk about purpose and how he got into what he does now.
[9:50] Mets asks how hard is it managing players?! "You can't control everything but having a good relationship is important. Communication and accountability are crucial." - Tyran.
[11:00] Tyran talks about how he likes to have really good relationships with players and likes to go over and beyond. He holds players accountable and holds the club accountable. Everyone has a clear understanding.
[12:00] Tyran likes players to have clarity on why things are happening. To focus on other areas of their lives like family etc.
[14:00] Mets ask Tyran what are the different challenges that player focus today? Tyran says social media etc. add pressure and new challenges. The game is tougher, more brutal. A lot bigger and strong guys out there now. Pressures, scrutiny, everything is magnified.
[27:00] Mets asks what are the attributes a young player needs for success? What does it take? Tyran says the talented players developed their talent since a young age. What you do from a young age is what a player will do at an elite player. Individual talents and skills are developed young. Anyone can do it, you create your own success. Identify your job and do it well. Break it right down. Know your strengths and weaknesses. Know what you're good at. Have a clear mindset. Make those around you better.
[28:40] Mets asks a final question - What do you want to be known for? "To be known as no matter what, someone that's going to do everything he can to make you better, help you when you're down, celebrate when you're up. Someone who is a good guy." - Tyran

When it comes to golf variety, Minnesota is tops. We've divided the state's golf resources into the 6 areas you see on the map. To view a comprehensive list of courses and contact information for a selected area, click on the corresponding map number or region. For additional information on a particular course in each area, simply click on the course name.
You'll discover a remarkable array of world class golf courses, all within a 45-minute drive of one another, on the Brainerd Golf Trail. The natural environment of 450 lakes, woods, wetlands and wildlife inspire your game. The Brainerd Lakes Area has been named, "One Of The Top 50 Golf Destinations In The World," by Golf Digest. And the world class golf is complemented by many world class resorts such as Cragun's Resort - named "Best Golf Resort" by MME and awarded Golf Digest's 2008-2009 "Best Places to Play" with a 5-Star rating awarded to the Dutch Legacy and a 4 1/2-Star rating awarded to Bobby's Legacy. Only 23 other courses out of nearly 6,000 USA golf courses have received this prestigious 5-Star honor.
You might assume that there is a bevy of high-quality, finely-conditioned golf courses all within a short drive of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. But you may be surprised to learn that many of these courses impart a secluded, pristine, "Up North" feel that adds much more to the urban golf experience. At many courses, the natural beauty is set against a cityscape background.
You'll be impressed with the wide-ranging types of golf courses in the southern region of Minnesota. Course terrain varies from the soft, windswept prairies of the southeast to the magnificent Mississippi River Valley bluff country in the southwest. The golf courses capture the spirit of this varied landscape, providing a diverse experience that's unmatched.
This is where the forests meet the prairies and rolling hills of the south. You'll find golf courses combining the character of both types of land, and one sure to fit your tastes, in such communities as the town of Alexandria, the bustling city of St. Cloud and the prairie community of Willmar.
The beauty of Minnesota's north country is found in golf courses that range from Bemidji to Detroit Lakes to Thief River Falls. Course characteristics vary from prairie style to classic northern lakes and woods. But the fun is always lumberjack size.
Golf in the great Minnesota northeast is as big and beautiful as the spectacular outdoors of the Arrowhead region. This is golf in the land of cathedral pines and sparkling lakes, including the incomparable Lake Superior as a backdrop. Here, the deep woods surround hidden gems of courses located from Lutsen to Duluth, Grand Marais to the Giants Ridge area.


ICECR (R&R Ice Cream Plc) was introduced in iTraxx Crossover Series 22 a year ago. Since then, its 5 year risk premium has almost only known one way: tighter. It touched 400bps on October 2nd 2014 and never looked back, moving to the 150-220bps range where it seemed to belong since early April. The final stage was reached today when NESTLE( Nestlé SA ) announced that they are discussing with PAI, ICECR's owners, to create a joint venture that would operate in 20 countries with activities encompassing ice cream and frozen food. That was great news for investors who own risk in ICECR as its risk premium collapsed following the report. The 5 year CDS tightened 68bps to 170bps, and should soon be worth sub 100bps. But the situation also illustrates the difficulty in adding new and less liquid names to credit indices. In the most likely scenario, the "on the run" series of iTraxx Crossover will reference a name that is dead box and hardly trades for the next 6 months.

Is there anything else which can cause this error?

The Politics of Stephen King

In the last couple of posts I've been writing about an interview that Stephen King gave Rolling Stone recently. It's really informative for King fans and you can read it here.
Stephen King caricature by Garrett Morlan
In it he talks about whether he believes in God (covered in my last post), and how he views why he's not taken seriously as a literary author (in the post before that). He also points out that he is a pacifist, that he thinks Obama has does a pretty good job considering, and he goes a little deeper into his political beliefs and how they impact how people know him. And about his politics:
"[Stephen King:] I'm going to do a TV ad for the Democratic candidate Shenna Bellows this afternoon. She's running against Susan Collins for Senate. And I don't know how much goodwill I have in the state, but I think it's a fair amount, so maybe the ad will make a difference.
[Rolling Stone:] Do you worry that being too political will turn off some of your readers?
It happens all the time. I wrote an e-book after the thing in Newtown, Connecticut, when that guy shot all those kids. I got a lot of letters, somebody saying, "Asshole! I'll never read another one of your goddamn books." So what? If you're to a point where you can't separate the entertainment from the politics, who needs you? Jesus Christ.
I never really cared for Tom Clancy's books, but it wasn't because he was a Republican guy. It was because I didn't think he could write. There's another guy that I sense is probably a fairly right-wing writer. His name is Stephen Hunter. And I love his books. I don't think he likes mine."
The thing is, King's politics aren't overt in his books, like Robert Heinlein's are. With Heinlein (and John Barnes for that matter, of which I will post about in the future), I feel as if it's been forced on me sometimes, like he took pains to detour the story so he could fit some political statement in, but I can't think of a single instance when I thought King was trying to make a political statement.
A thing, be it a book or movie or whatever, is either political or it isn't. And if it isn't, it shouldn't be. That's sounds redundant but I guess I'm just saying that if given the choice I will choose the mainstream nonpolitical story over the political one most times.
I actually think a lot of people are like this. They are understandably turned off by the ugly politics of our time. Probably why they don't vote, as evidenced by the record low turnout just a few days ago.
More from King and Rolling Stone on the political state of affairs in America:
"Why do you think the country is so divided?
It doesn't have anything to do with Obama. There's a fundamental discussion going on in America right now about whether or not we're going to continue to protect individual freedoms or whether we're going to give some of them up. And the discussion has become extremely acrimonious.
In the wake of 9/11, we're searched invasively at airports. There are CCTV cameras everywhere. There's a whole bunch of people who say that America is for the individual and that we're all the gunslingers of our own house. Basically, there's a whole side of the country that's fearful. They're fearful that if same-sex marriage becomes legal, then God knows what will happen – all at once, all of our kids will be gay and America's way of life will die out. They're afraid that immigrants are going to swamp the economy. And on the other side, there are all of those people who say, "Maybe there's a way to embrace these things, and maybe we need to give up our right that anybody can buy a gun." They're basic arguments."

At 18, I knew I wanted to have a career in fundraising. It's true. Really. I was one of the lucky ones. Do you know the expression "luck is when preparation meets opportunity?" Well, here we are. Many mentors believed in me and I learned to believe in myself. I honor their commitment by sharing learning with others.
Every day I seek to create opportunity. It is my goal to inspire others to accomplish something they never thought possible. In leadership, I believe each of us has the chance to find and fulfill our voice, our purpose and our potential. I consider it a privilege to help people create these opportunities for themselves.
Glad you are along for the journey!

Student Dies During Protest In Ondo
wikinaija May 2, 2019 May 2, 2019 No Comments on Student Dies During Protest In Ondo
A hit-and-run vehicle, Tuesday killed a student of the Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA), identified simply as Israel Anuolowapo in the Ondo State capital.
Naija News reports that Anuolowapo, a 100-level student of the Department of Mathematics, was allegedly crushed to death in front of the university main gate by a reckless driver due to overspeeding; a development that has made students of the university hit the streets in the state in a peaceful protest over the death of Anuolowapo.
During the protest, the students barricaded the Ilesa-Akure Expressway, singing solidarity songs and restricted movement on the road.
The protest was said to have caused gridlock on the road and left several road users stranded.
The protesting students demanded that the Federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing erect speed bumps on the expressway particularly in the front of the school so as to enable students to cross the road freely and to reduce accident in that axis.
An eyewitness revealed that the operatives of the Ondo state police command intervened and persuaded the students to unblock the roads to enable free movement.
Speaking on the protest, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Femi Joseph, said the matter had been resolved, adding that the government had agreed to erect speed bumps on the expressway.
"When we got information about the protest, we immediately swung into action and appealed to them; nomalcy has been restored now," he said.
Similarly, the Head of Media and Protocols Unit of FUTA, Adegbenro Adebayo said representatives of the school management met with the state government to register the displeasure and complaints of the students, adding that a resolution had been made.
He said, "It was an unfortunate incident. It happened yesterday (Tuesday) and the boy died same day at a hospital. We have formally informed his parents. We met with some government officials today (Wednesday) and our students have stopped the protest; they are all back on campus and academic activities have resumed. The state government, through the ministry of transport, has promised to erect speed bumps on the road and the work will start tomorrow (Thursday)."

Lorraine Street location selected for transitional housing complex
Facility slated to help transition people who are chronically homeless into permanent community housing
Tyler Clarke

A location has been selected for a transitional housing complex in Greater Sudbury, but its federal funding has been called into question in the midst of a looming election.
During Tuesday's city council meeting, a Lorraine Street location, west of the Notre Dame Avenue and Lasalle Boulevard intersection in the New Sudbury neighbourhood, was chosen for the new build, which again received unanimous council support.
The facility is intended to target local people who are chronically homeless and help them transition into permanent community housing with the help of intensive services provided by Health Sciences North.
The city-owned Lorraine Street location was selected over another option at 1127 Brancroft Drive due in large part to the fact it was closer to shovel ready, said Tyler Campbell, the city's director of children and city social services.
Further, he added the site "has future site potential if council were to look at enhancements in the future."
Ward 5 Coun. Robert Kirwan said the property's greenspace offers "a wonderful environment with lots of places to hike and enjoy nature, but more importantly, there is a lot of high-density permanent housing in the area, so once a person graduates from this transitional spot … they can even access apartments that become vacant just up the street or close by."
Given this close proximity, he said they might still have access to services for follow-up meetings if necessary.
With the site enthusiastically endorsed by council, Campbell said the city is able to forward their application to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, which through their Rapid Housing Initiative already pledged $7.4 million toward the project in July.
Since that time, a federal election was called for Sept. 20, which caused at least a couple of councillors to question whether the funding remained secure.
"We do not have the funding secured at this point," Campbell clarified, adding their application still needs to be approved by the CMHC, and that "the money is not in the bank."
In the event the funding doesn't come through, the project is expected to return to council for further discussion.
Regardless of this lingering piece of uncertainty, several city councillors expressed enthusiasm for the project during Tuesday's meeting, thanking everyone involved for their work in bringing it to this stage.
"There's been a lot of work -- a lot of sweat equity put into this by everyone concerned," Ward 12 Coun. Joscelyne Landry-Altmann said, expressing frustration regarding public sentiment she caught wind of that the city isn't doing anything to address homelessness.
While Tuesday's discussion centred mainly on site selection, Campbell said future meetings with council will hash out other pertinent details, such as operational costs, size of building and other potential funding sources.
The $7.5 million in CMHC funding is expected to go toward the creation of a minimum of 28 new permanent affordable housing units, though Campell said there is the potential for council to scale it up to 40 units or even the range of 40 to 60 outlined in the original business case.

Vids: Jon Hope - Wishful Thinking
Vids: Conn-Shawnery - Takes 2/2 Tango
Reviews: Yucca Rose
Yucca Rose is an accomplished painter/jazz singer based in Jakarta, Indonesia who brings listeners smooth, silky Jazz that is comfortable, familiar, and right on track. She sings the classic jazz melodies flawlessly, and provides fans with great songs to kick back, relax, and enjoy.
Rose's account of "Fever" stays true to the original, well-known version. It starts out nice and smooth; the backing instrumentation provided by the Jakarta band Major Seventh is spot-on. The saxophone and piano go well with Rose's earthy, throaty scatting vocals. While her traditional vocals are perfectly adequate, there is nothing there that is really all that memorable or impressive. On the familiar 1935 track "I'm in the Mood for Love," Rose continues to provide listeners with a great interpretation of the popular jazz standard. Her voice is strong, and the piano and oboe strokes featured on the song perfectly complement Rose's smooth vocals. There is nothing on this track to not like. A more upbeat song by Rose is "In a Sentimental Mood." Written by Duke Ellington, it has more of a funky vibe to it than the previous two songs. The guitar and drums, provided by Major Seventh, are phenomenal, and Rose's singing is much stronger than on the other two tracks. Here, she sings in a higher register, and hits all of the notes with no struggle. Her vocals are soothing, pleasant, and sweet. The saxophone solo mid-song is blazing and the backing guitar and bass add to the magic.
Yucca Rose is a talented musician who knows what good, classic Jazz tunes are made of. She interprets well-known, popular Jazz standards of yore flawlessly, without missing a beat. Jazz fans young and old will appreciate her versions of these records. Rose's take on these classics stand up to the originals, and hopefully hers will stand the test of time as well.
