Ruga settlement: Presidency reacts to controversies
Presidency says the Ruga settlement initiative is not just Fulani herdsmen, but beneficiaries will also include all persons in animal husbandry.
Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, stated this in a statement on Sunday while reacting to the controversies surrounding the planned establishment of the settlement by the Federal Government across the federation.
He said, "Ruga Settlement' that seeks to settle migrant pastoral families simply means rural settlement in which animal farmers, not just cattle herders, will be settled in an organized place with provision of necessary and adequate basic amenities such as schools, hospitals, road networks, vet clinics, markets and manufacturing entities that will process and add value to meats and animal products.
"The Federal Government is planning this in order to curb open grazing of animals that continue to pose security threats to farmers and herders.
"The overall benefit to the nation includes a drastic reduction in conflicts between herders and farmers, a boost in animal protection complete with a value chain that will increase the quality and hygiene of livestock in terms of beef and milk production, increased quality of feeding and access to animal care and private sector participation in commercial pasture production by way of investments.
"Other gains are job creation, access to credit facilities, security for pastoral families and curtailment of cattle rustling.
"Stripped of the politics and howling that has attended the recent comments, there is no government plan to seize state land, colonize territory or impose Ruga on any part of the federation. Government has made it clear time and again that the programme is voluntary.
"So far, twelve states have applied to the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, making lands available for the take-off of the scheme in their states. This number is sufficient for the pilot scheme.
"Unfortunately, some state governments that have not signified interest in the scheme and, therefore, are not on the invitation list have been misleading people that the Federal Government is embarking on a scheme to take away their lands.
"Mostly, these are state leaders that have no explanation to offer their people for continued non-payment of workers' salaries. It is true that government at the centre has gazetted lands in all states of the federation but because the idea is not to force this programme on anyone, the government has limited the take-off to the dozen states with valid requests.
"We urge states to join the Federal Government at the centre in encouraging all sides to these conflicts to make efforts towards finding a peaceful resolution.
"As we seek a permanent solution to these unwanted conflicts, efforts must be made to ensure that no innocent person faces any kind of deprivation or loss of right and freedom under our laws."

Shooting victim's family and friends gather for balloon release ceremony
LUKE HOLLISTER | The Daily Evergreen
Friends and family members of Tim Reeves release balloons in remembrance Thursday night at Conservation Park in Pullman.
The father of Tim Reeves, an 18-year-old Pullman High School student killed earlier this week in a shooting, embraces loved ones as family and friends fill balloons to release in a memorial ceremony Thursday night.
And then Keith Reeves turns away, steps down the hill below the rest of the crowd at Pullman's Conservation Park. Clutching a cluster of balloons, one red, one purple, two blue, he faces across the valley below. He wipes one eye, then the other. Again, left eye, right eye.
Keith Reeves, Tim's father, stands apart from the group while waiting for the balloon release.
Two balloons pop behind him, seemingly without reason.
"He's here," Reeves says. "Messing with people."
About 50 relatives, friends and classmates gather to remember Tim Reeves. He is known to many as TJ or Bubba – a 6-foot-4-inch, well-over-200-pound, gentle giant.
Investigators are attempting to locate two local men suspected in his murder.
"He didn't deserve to go out like this," his half-brother Blaize Reeves says. "He's too good of a kid."
They write messages to Tim in marker on their balloons, words of farewell and fortitude: "Let your heart be light and your soul strong," one reads. A long message begins "I will miss you Bubba."
Another reads, "fly high. I love you, see you soon."
As she waits for the release, one woman loses her grip on the balloon she's holding.
"Grab it, grab it, grab it!" she says. A young boy reaches and almost catches it, but it just slips through his fingers and floats away.
A gentle giant
A Lynyrd Skynrd song plays in the background as they pass out balloons.
"Baby, be a simple kind of man," it goes. "Be something you love and understand."
The people who knew Tim best describe him as humble, kind and cheerful. His half-brother Tyler says even in the worst of times, Tim would find a way to be happy.
"No matter what kinda day it was," Tyler says, "he always had a smile on his face."
Marena Knight, Tim's mother, writes a message to him on her balloon.
And he always put a smile on other people's faces. Even if Tim was in a bad mood, Tyler says, the problems of those around him came first. He was more concerned with making sure everyone else was OK.
Despite his size, people say Tim was a lover, not a fighter. He never used his weight against anyone, and Blaize says he wouldn't harm a fly.
Tim's stepmother, Rachel Reeves, hugs Blaize as she walks by.
"He was a professional hugger," she says with a laugh, remembering Tim's embrace.
He was born in Cle Elum and later lived in Yakima and Selah, until three years ago his father decided to remove them from what he saw as a dangerous environment. Tyler says Tim's death hit the community hard because it seems out of place in a town like Pullman.
"We moved from Yakima to get away from violence," he says.
When they first moved here, Tyler says, they often came to Conservation Park, on the western outskirts of Pullman. In a land of wheat, the pine trees around the park reminded them of the Cascade foothills of their childhood.
"It made us feel a little at home," he says. "It's kinda always been our spot."
Blaize Reeves shows his tattoos reading "family" and "friends," the most important words in their family.
Family over everything
Blaize holds up his arms to display two tattoos, one on either forearm.
The right says "family," the left says "friends." His father and uncles made the markings a family tradition, and members of the second generation, including Tim, receive them when they come of age.
"He got his the day he turned 18," Blaize says.
The connection is strong between these relatives. Blaize pulls back the right sleeve of his T-shirt to reveal the acronym F.O.E – "family over everything."
"Nothing's more important," he says.
That was true for Tim from a young age. When their parents divorced, Tyler says, they supported each other through that struggle. They always enjoyed spending time and playing football together, and the rest of their seven siblings were close as well.
"We've always been together," he says, "pretty much through everything."
Now Tim's loved ones must be together without him. They hug and cry, recall this or that memory and smile.
Tyler Knight speaks about Tim before the letting the first balloon go.
The last of the group arrives and they hand out the final balloons. Tyler moves to the center to speak. "We really just need each other to be strong," he says.
Reeves's mother stands apart from the crowd as they release the balloons.
"I love you Bubba!" she cries in a hoarse voice, looking toward the sky.
Farther away, an infant babbles Reeves's name, over and over, as the balloons drift out of sight into the air.
"Bubba, Bubba, Bubba."

I was raised without religious affiliation by, what I like to call, Jewish Atheists. However, religious texts, and particularly imagery from Early Christian Art, have always fascinated me. I am particularly attracted to the medieval artists' disregard of gravity, scale and perspective. This indifference to the realities of timeand space in their paintings was in the service of passionate faith and storytelling, an approach that informs of my work. My staircases and ladders, in the choice of materials and in the way they are put together, reflect an optimistic disregard for gravity and utility. They are a representation of the effort to rise above negative entanglements, an image that represents transition from the Worldly, to a way of being with fewer negative emotional or material attachments. This essentially Buddhist view is an expression of the idea that suffering is a result of attachments, not only to things (that inevitably break or wear out) or ideology, but also to relationships. The aspiration is to love without grasping and smothering.

Camilla and that lunch to get closer to Meghan Markle (unsuccessfully)
By Susan Karen
Assuming he wants to, there is a universal way in which a mother-in-law can conquer a daughter-in-law, and vice versa: through food. Sharing family recipes, cooking four hands in the same kitchen are very powerful tools of approach, which leverage on childhood memories. A moment that warms hearts and can build a bond between women who suddenly find themselves part of the same family.
Apparently, to think so is also the Queen consort Camilla, who seems to have tried to establish a closer relationship with Meghan Markle just like any mother-in-law in the world would: in the kitchen. Charles III's wife allegedly "tried with all her strength" to make her daughter-in-law feel welcome in the family, even if she never showed any real interest in doing so.
To reveal yet another distance between the British royal family and Harry's wife, this time, is thereCamilla's biographer, journalist Angela Levinauthor of several books on the Royals and in particular on the life of the Queen consort.
"Meghan thought she knew everything, she was amazed she couldn't come in and direct the show," said the journalist at the presentation of her latest book Camilla: From Outcast to Queen Consort, published just these days. In particular, the author wanted to retrace Camilla's repeated efforts to get closer to Meghan, such as when the Queen consort "did everything" to support the recipe book published by Meghan in 2018 to raise funds for the victims of the Grenfell Tower fire. The book, which was the first project presented independently by the Duchess of Sussex after her arrival in the royal family, contained around fifty recipes collected together with the women of the community of Grenfell, and exactly professed the power of cooking in bringing people together. An idea that Camilla would have defined «absolutely fascinating», thus trying to help her young daughter-in-law in the success of her project. To put the teachings of the book into practice, says Angela Levin, Camilla decided to organize a lunch with Harry and Meghan. «He chose every single thing from the recipe book: appetizer, main course, dessert. He did everything with great attention, but Meghan didn't show the slightest interest," says Camilla's biographer. "She went to lunch, but it had no impact on her."

Nevertheless, the Queen consort could have been a good vehicle for Meghan to understand the real dynamics and trying to get used to some traditions that, seen through the eyes of an American actress, can surely seem bizarre. After all, no one knows better than Camilla what it means to fight to be accepted by the British, whether they are royal or simple subjects. And it was something that had worked with Kate Middleton, apparently. "Camilla had such a terrible time with the royal family, and when Catherine got engaged to William she tried to show her the rules and protocols, she took her out to lunch, showed her how things are. And Catherine was very grateful to her», which is why today the two get along very well.
Nothing to do instead with Meghan Markle who, according to Levin, has shown a general intolerance towards the older members of the royal family, such as Camilla and Kate. "I think it's Meghan's problem," the expert Royals journalist says bluntly. «She likes to be in control, to be on top. I think she didn't like to walk after Catherine and William, or be sixth in line to the throne: she wanted to be her first.'

Indulge in Ireland
Enjoy a break in one of Ireland's unique places to stay
Medieval retreat: Ashford Castle is set in 350 acres Credit: Aervisions
2 May 2017 • 4:30pm
From castles and country estates to bubble domes, lighthouses and B&Bs, take a look at a selection of unique accommodation options on the island.
A trip to the island of Ireland is a chance to enjoy exquisite countryside, breathtaking coastlines, vibrant cities and welcoming villages.
An opportunity to sit still and soak up landscapes one day, then immerse yourself in the unique culture and heritage the next.
It's easy to explore, thanks to driving routes littered with interesting places to stop, people to meet and stories to hear.
Here are examples of some of the places in which you could stay, from castles, palaces and country estates to town houses, cottages and B&Bs.
From the luxurious to the quirky, there is something to suit all holiday types.
If you're travelling to Ireland in the hope of finding history, beauty, indulgence and fine food, then this restored castle, set in 350 acres, is an essential stop.
Standards throughout the grounds, spa, rooms and restaurants at this County Mayo castle – dating back to 1228 – are everything you would expect from a hotel that regularly hosts royalty and celebrities.
Within the grounds are first-class facilities such as riding, falconry, fishing, golf, kayaking and cycling.
Galgorm Resort & Spa
Near the Antrim coast and close to Belfast and its many attractions, this is a perfect place to relax.
With 163 acres of parkland and the River Maine running through the estate, here you can enjoy natural beauty and luxuriate in the thermal village and spa, and enjoy afternoon tea in the conservatory, Italian food in Fratelli, casual fare in Gillies Bar & Grill or fine dining in the 3AA Rosette River Room restaurant.
Finn Lough Bubble Domes
For glamping with a difference, stay in one of the Bubble Domes at Finn Lough near Enniskillen.
Gaze upon the forest and the starry night sky through the 180-degree transparent walls while snugly tucked up in a four-poster bed and fully immerse yourself in the beauty and tranquillity of nature.
Glamping it up: be at one with nature in a Bubble Dome at Finn Lough
Each dome also offers an ensuite bathroom, Nespresso coffee machine, fluffy robes and slippers, daily breakfast and a wonderful chance to enjoy invigorating outdoor activities, such as nature trails and mountain-bike tracks.
Ballyfin
Sitting at the foot of the Slieve Bloom Mountains in County Laois, this 19th century mansion – which took eight years to restore – has just 20 rooms.
Informal atmosphere: Ballyfin took eight years to restore
Somehow, despite the ornate furniture and antiques, this country house maintains an informal atmosphere.
Spots such as the library, gold drawing room, saloon and conservatory encourage peaceful relaxation – as do the parkland, ancient woods and lake in the 614-acre estate.
The Merchant Hotel
This centrally located hotel in the Cathedral Quarter of Belfast is close to many of the city's treasures. Within walking distance are the Ulster Museum, the Titanic Quarter and the Waterfront Hall.

You can stay in the hotel's Grade-A listed original building – purpose-built as the headquarters of the Ulster bank – or in the Art Deco wing.
After a day exploring the city, there's a luxury spa, rooftop gym and jazz bar to enjoy.
Burke's Mulbur House
This modern and welcoming B&B is set in an area of outstanding scenic beauty near Killarney and is proud winner of the 2014, 2015 and 2016 TripAdvisor Award of Excellence.
Providing a superb base for exploring the Ring of Kerry, the Dingle Peninsula and Killarney National Park, it is also close to Killarney Golf Club, Ross Castle and Muckross House & Gardens.
Clare Island Lighthouse
Perched on craggy cliffs at the entrance to Clew Bay, along the Wild Atlantic Way, Clare Island Lighthouse has served as a nautical landmark for almost 200 years.
Lovingly converted into a boutique hotel, it now offers luxurious accommodation surrounded by magnificent views.
The Merrion Hotel
Four Georgian townhouses have been combined to create this Leading Hotel of the World in Dublin. A highlight is Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud with two Michelin stars.
The hotel sits opposite Government Buildings and close to galleries, parks, museums, Trinity College and the Book of Kells, and the lively pubs, restaurants and shops of Grafton Street and Temple Bar.
Fota Island Resort
This island resort 15 minutes from Cork city centre curves along the shoreline and offers luxurious accommodation and spectacular views – especially through the glass walls of the restaurant and bar.
There are two tennis courts, a golf course that has hosted three Irish Opens, an 18m pool, a spa and great nature walks in the extensive grounds.

The LifeStart effect and feeding the world
Dr. Leo den Hartog relates the excitement about the new concepts behind LifeStart and the science that backs them up.
Professor Leo den Hartog, Director of R & D and Quality Affairs at Trouw Nutrition, and Professor of Sustainable Animal Nutrition in Production Chains at Wageningen University, is bullish about the future of animal nutrition and the LifeStart brand's contribution to furthering the advancement of scientific and research breakthroughs that will help feed the world's ever-increasing population.
Professor den Hartog is optimistic for several reasons. The first is the success of the recent LifeStart Global Dairy Calf Symposium. Participants including researchers, professors and farm advisors from 17 different countries, all came together to share the latest knowledge, ask questions, network and discuss their motivations as well as thoughts and experiences from their home countries. It was the openness of the discussions and the willingness of everyone to share their research that was most encouraging to the Professor.
He's also confident about the "LifeStart sets Life Performance" approach and its focus on explaining the science behind setting calves up in early life in order to promote the best production possible later on. In terms of LifeStart products and concepts, den Hartog is equally enthusiastic. He feels that there are three areas LifeStart needs to focus on. Firstly, he feels the focus should be on a higher feeding level, or amount, which has a profound effect on both long-term health and production. Secondly, he emphasizes the need for a good concentration in the products, such as CMR, so that it's not just that you're feeding more, but also that it's a better quality product. And lastly, hand in hand with the above, he also feels it's imperative to have the right composition in the feed, so that animals get all of the vital nutrition they need and deserve.
Professor den Hartog sees the next step in the LifeStart story as really figuring out the specifics of those metabolic pathways, how we can better influence them through nutrition to make them work even more efficiently and optimally, and to constantly improve the product line based on the newest scientific insights.
Ultimately, the Professor emphasizes that all who are involved in the AgriFood sector serve an incredibly important function as they provide the most valuable resource there is in society: food. With the right products and the right approach, Professor den Hartog believes that those in this most important sector can rise to the challenge of feeding the world in 2050, and beyond.

Croatia Looks Perfect, but…
by Rupert Wolfe Murray | Oct 4, 2021 | Journeys
Croatia has one of the most spectacular coastlines in Europe, with mountains plunging into the sea, countless islands, and Dubrovnik: the ancient port city that features in the epic TV series Game of Thrones.
If you're mega rich, or connected to Croatia's government, your visit to the Adriatic islands will involve helicopters, luxury cars and private boats – creating the impression that this country is far better organised than the other former Yugoslav republics.
But if you're an ordinary tourist and you arrive in Split, Croatia's second city and its biggest ferry port, you'll be unable to avoid the bus station.
One thing that communism did rather well was public transport and the old bus stations of the former Yugoslavia are scruffy but spacious. I know this because currently I'm living in Bosnia which, like Croatia, was one of the former republics of Yugoslavia.
The bus station in Split has lost the vast space the former regime endowed it with. Now it's clogged up with steaming junk food stalls and sprawling kiosks selling flip flops, sun hats, sun cream, rubber rings, postcards, beach mats, towels, travel insurance, car rental, day trips, private boat hire, money exchange and left luggage offices.
When I arrived at Split bus station at the tail end of summer, I thought I'd arrived in hell. Until that moment I'd been enjoying the heat but as I tried to make my way through the narrow space left by the merchants of junk, the temperature became oppressive. And there's no easy way out — you have to walk for about half a kilometre and squeeze past endless tourists, most of whom seem lost, and overweight, immobile, angry-looking taxi drivers.
How can Croatia, which prides itself on its Austro-Hungarian heritage (it was a part of that empire for centuries) allow its second biggest city to have a bus station that is more like what you might find in the Indian subcontinent? At least in India you know to expect swarms of hustlers every time you get to a bus station, and there is always a good natured banter to the proceedings, but Croatia likes to differentiate itself from the disreputable Balkans by making sure everything's pukka and ship-shape.
The following day in Split I went to get ferry tickets to the beautiful island of Vis and this involved navigating the same hellish route past the bus station. At this point I realised how bad the situation is in terms of public transport in this major Croatian city: all forms of transport converge in this crowded market of junk. Not only does the airport bus arrive here, but the train station is hidden behind a fast food stand and you can't get to the ferry terminal without stumbling through all this chaos. To make matters worse there are no signs that say Bus Station, Ferry Terminal, Railway Station or City Centre.
I got chatting with an English-speaking local who told me that Croatia used to have a really good bus service which served all the outlying communities with several buses a day. Now, he said, the whole thing has been privatised and the number of services has been drastically reduced. Getting a ticket is also more confusing now as each bus company has its own ticket office, offering competing routes. He was particularly annoyed with Flixbus, a multinational bus company, for "destroying our public bus system."
As I came out of the ferry terminal I saw the bus station from afar and started to make sense of it, at least in my own mind. Imagine a long road facing the sea; at one end is the city centre and at the other is the ferry terminal. The bus and railway stations are located along this road and both the pavement and the road itself are rather broad. I crossed the road, measured the width of the pavement and was able to take 7 large strides, in other words 7 metres — more than enough space for crowds of people to pass each other in comfort. But the kiosks of junk, many of which have fridges and stands pushing further into the available space, reduce the room for pedestrians to less than two metres. And the road itself is equally jammed up — with old taxis which never seem to move, not surprising considering their scalping tactics. Most people seem to use Uber or arrange a minibus.
Considering the number of tourists who come to Croatia — almost 20 million in 2019 — surely this valuable piece of real estate should be turned into a modern, spacious bus, train and ferry terminal, with airport-style signs everywhere and a strictly limited number of high class shops. If the design team who turned Zagreb Airport into a triumph of modern design were let loose on this location they could do something brilliant.
Although Split has an incredible old town, with a Roman palace as its centrepiece, it seems to me that the City Council of Split has succumbed to the petty bribery of the local taxi mafia, quick-buck opportunists who have an excess of plastic beach gear and every peddler of junk food in the area. And the local advertising agencies have been allowed to plaster crass ads over every available space, adding to the confusion felt by every hapless tourist who is trying to find a bus, a train, or the city centre. Maybe there are still some lost tourists wandering about there now.
Photo caption: this article has a photo which you can only see on my home page (don't ask me why). It's a photo of my son Luca and his girlfriend Lydia on the Croatian island of Vis, taken in September 2021. They kindly invited me to join them on their holiday and we ended up wandering around the hills on the island of Vis which, like all Croatian islands, is stunning. In this photo we were about to start playing cards on a disused helipad.

Interesting article – Eastern Europe for all its faults was good at public transport. I much prefer the former East Berlin to West Berlin, trams and little parks full of children playing. My friend traveled across Europe by bike and she loved flixbus because you can put your bike on it, they load on the front I think.
Dick Biggus on October 6, 2021 at 10:52 pm
Considering your general lifestyle, which is absolutely not high class at all, and your love for Romania — which is absolutely a shithole… you really should have rethought this trip or at least not visited this country while having a PMS episode. You're wrong on sooooo many details that I can't even. And your comments about walking a kilometre or whatever? I'm sorry — did you (or did you not?) bike across the English/Scottish countryside? Maybe you should reevaulate your exercise routine.
Lydia on October 4, 2021 at 12:33 pm
Love how you described that wretched Bus station. I almost forgot how chaotic it was to even just look at.
Perhaps we should go back in a couple years to see if they've improved anything!
I really like how you've written this. It makes me miss Croatia even more.

Lilly King returns to Evansville as the conquering hero, fulfilling a dream
Olympic gold medalist Lilly King returns to Evansville as conquering hero, childhood dream to be fulfilled
Lilly King returns to Evansville as the conquering hero, fulfilling a dream Olympic gold medalist Lilly King returns to Evansville as conquering hero, childhood dream to be fulfilled Check out this story on courierpress.com: https://www.courierpress.com/story/sports/2019/12/11/gold-medalist-lilly-king-returns-evansville-conquering-hero/2629474001/
Gordon Engelhardt, Evansville Courier & Press Published 3:58 p.m. CT Dec. 11, 2019 | Updated 4:34 p.m. CT Dec. 11, 2019
EVANSVILLE – Lilly King wasn't able to take in everything surrounding her when she won the gold medal in the 100-meter breaststroke at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. It was basically too much to comprehend.
So, she relied on something familiar. She won the gold despite eating at McDonald's virtually every meal. Despite waiting in line for 45 minutes nearly every time.
She joked after turning pro that her likeness would one day be on a McDonald's cup.
Asked if that had happened, King said: "Not quite yet. Being a pro has been good. I've been on the road for eight weeks in a row. There's a lot of travel, but it's totally worth it."

King, a former Reitz High School standout and Indiana University all-American, returned to Evansville Wednesday to be on hand for the groundbreaking ceremony of the new $28 million Deaconess Aquatic Center, across the street from the entrance to Bosse Field. Replacing Lloyd Pool, which opened in 1975, the new aquatic center will be named to honor King, who personally pushed for the project.
"It's cool. I mean it's my career kind of coming full circle," King said. "I've been training at Lloyd Pool my whole life it seems. I'm getting ready for my second Olympics and breaking ground on a pool named after me was pretty cool to see."

When King was in high school, Reitz shared the antiquated Lloyd Pool with five other high school teams. She added several morning practices with a local masters team and joined the Newburgh Sea Creatures, in order to swim in a higher-quality pool.
All that hard work eventually paid off in gold – she also swam the breaststroke leg of the gold-medal-winning 4x100 medley relay team at Rio, is preparing for the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics, which will begin on July 24. She said she developed an affinity for the breaststroke at an early age.

"I don't know. It fit me at a young age," King said. "All of a sudden I was faster at the breaststroke than everything else from a young age."
She may be a trendsetter Jan. 11 at the annual Night of Memories charity youth fundraiser at the Vanderburgh 4-H Center. King is believed to be the first woman to be a special guest in an event normally reserved for male sports stars.
"I think I heard somewhere that I'm the first female who is ever going to be there (as a special guest)," King said. "If that's true, that's awesome. I kind of grew up going to the Night of Memories, meeting baseball players. That's come full circle, too."
King will be a special guest, along with Lee Smith and Keith Hernandez. Smith, who held the MLB record with 478 saves pitching for the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals, among others, until it was broken by Trevor Hoffman, was enshrined into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2018. Hernandez shared the 1979 National League Most Valuable Player honor and was a five-time All-Star and 11-time Gold Glove first baseman. He helped lead the St. Louis Cardinals to the 1982 World Series championship and the New York Mets in '86.
King speaks her mind
King didn't shy from controversy at the 2016 Olympics. She famously defeated Russia's Yulia Efimova after a finger-wagging exchange in Rio.
"It's incredible, winning the gold medal and knowing I did it clean," King said after winning the 100-meter breaststroke in Olympic-record time (1:04.93, 0.57 ahead of Efimova). The performance came 24 hours after King and Efimova engaged in a public war and King labeled Efimova a drug cheat.
"I'm not a fan," King told NBC after the semifinals.
King is aiming high for Tokyo 2020 — she has said that the perfect Olympics for her would be four golds. She could become the first woman to repeat in the 100 breaststroke and could also capture medals in the 200 breast, medley and mixed medley relays.
From a red-headed girl from the West Side to the world stage, King admitted fame was difficult to deal with at first.
"I'm getting used to it," she said. "You gotta do what you gotta do."
King held a blue towel with "Lilly King Deaconess Aquatic Center" stenciled on it during the groundbreaking ceremony.
"I'm freezing," she said. "I'm thankful for the new Deaconess Aquatic Center towel, that's something I never thought I'd have. Growing up, I started swimming at Lloyd Pool at eight years old and it looks about the same as it did when I was eight years old and that's not a good thing."
She said her mom, Ginny, was at a meeting when she was 10 about getting a new indoor city pool.
"Standing here at 22, almost 23, it's finally here," Lilly said. "I'm really thankful to be a small part of this project."
Mayor Lloyd Winnecke said the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new pool should take place in the summer of 2021. He said the Deaconess Aquatic Center will fulfill the dream of Lilly King, "the greatest swimmer to ever come out of Evansville."

The Zulus may be best known among Americans and Europeans as noble fighters who battled, with occasional spectacular success, against early Dutch settlers and British colonialists in Southern Africa in the 19th Century.
In the view of many South Africans, those battles broke out as the Zulus, known as a strong people, extended their traditional homelands southward, meeting the European colonists as they migrated northward. In the view of many Zulus, the whites met resistance when they invaded Zulu lands.
The Zulus` current situation stems in part from a battle between European colonial forces and a band of Zulus led by an ancestor of Chief Gatsha Buthelezi. Buthelezi, noted for his steadfast opposition to violence as the solution to South Africa`s problems, traces his ancestry to one of his people`s most renowned warriors.
History--and Hollywood in its 1960s movie ''Zulu''--takes particular note of one Buthelezi ancestor, King Cetshwayo. This Zulu king led a force of his tribal fighters in 1879 to defeat the technologically superior British army.
Cetshwayo had built his army on the military tradition established by an earlier king, Shaka, who had commanded an army in which tribesmen were housed in regiments grouped by age, forbidden to marry until their mid-30s, and drilled to move in disciplined attacks.
Twelve hundred Europeans and Africans under British command were killed by the Zulus` spears in the January, 1879, battle led by Cetshwayo. The Zulus won the battle but lost the war. The British soon regrouped and took control of the region.
British colonialists divided the territory, which lies in the Natal province in the southeastern part of Africa near the Indian Ocean, into administrative partitions that included 21 special ''reserves'' set aside for the Zulu people.
Traditionally farmers and cattle herders, the Zulus were settled into areas in which the land often was unusable. Brief rebellions against white rulers arose and were quashed several times in the 19th Century. Clan warfare among Zulus continued into the 20th Century, centering on conflicts over the dwindling supply of land in the reserves.
These fragmented and scattered reserves would become known as a Zulu state, KwaZulu.
In the mid-1970s, some persistent clan clashes spilled into cities and mining towns, where Zulu workers had migrated with the growth of industry.

Philosophy meets Art meets Writing: Benoît Maire at the CAPC
Benoît Maire talks to TLmag about his major solo exhibition, Thèbes, currently on show at the CAPC, Bordeaux, and the thinking and process behind his work
Photography by	Frédéric Deval
The Museum of Contemporary Art Bordeaux (CAPC), is hosting a major solo show of French artist Benoît Maire entitled Thèbes. The exhibition, curated by Alice Motard, brings together over 80 pieces in three new series entitled Cloud Paintings, War Newspapers and Castles, which include paintings, sculptures, films, furniture and everyday objects. The works, in typical Maire style, straddle the boundaries between art and philosophy as he explores the concept of differend–a French word which describes two people opposed by a conflict that cannot be resolved as there is no language to express the problem between them.
Thèbes is accompanied by the first signature monograph of Maire, designed by the London-based studio Åbäke. It covers nearly 15 years of Maire's multi-media works and thinking with contributions by other artists, designers and philosophers.
Benoît Maire chats with TLmag about his practice and the exhibition:
TLmag: You work across many disciplines–philosophy, art making and writing–do they all inform each other?
Benoît Maire: Yes, I think so, but it's difficult to know how this plays out. I guess some ideas can be "translated" into different mediums. When I'm writing a film or a text I deal with similar ideas. But, in a film, it will be more allegorical and less didactic. I mean, in a film an idea can be there, but it does not need to be explained as it would need to be in a philosophical text.
Can you explain your process of working on a project?
I work a lot with "life experiences", I really use what happens in life. Things people say give me ideas. I read books also, I'm reading Italo Calvino at this very moment. I look at art. It gives me desire. The desire to answer in the same medium to other painters (whether they are dead, or they are my "colleagues").
What are some recurring questions that you find yourself asking when working?
There was the idea of the repetition in 2008. Then I was working on tables in 2010. Measuring tools happened in 2012 (although, I call weapons, as they destroy our relationship to nature while we are constantly measuring it). Then I got onto the idea of waste in 2014, then causality and origin, more recently.
With almost 80 works in the exhibition, was it difficult to weave a narrative between them or do they sit on their own?
The linking narrative is the question of the origin of all the elements humankind creates or is surrounded by. I wanted to question mankind's relationship to objects. This created the narrative of the project and, as like in an old tragic play, there is also the creation of a particular space-time.
Space is defined in my show by Cloud Paintings. This is a special place and space. The relation to time is defined by the war news-papers that are hung very low in the show as if the written-history is addressing kids.
The CAPC exhibition blurb states that your exhibition "aims to tackle the ambient sense of disquiet and danger menacing a society weighed down by perpetual self-questioning". Can you expand on this? Why are these themes important at this current moment in time?
I wanted to question our relation to "war " but with a distance. I don't like to refer too directly to our society by using shocking images or sentences taken from here and there. I like to question the substance of how we live but from another angle. Also, I guess some of the trouble we actually face derives from the world resolution conflict of 1945, amongst other things.
I find the War Newspapers series really fascinating, it seems to me that you become a commentator of the past in a very subtle but pointed way by displaying newspapers from WWII and then circling one word on each them, creating a new story. How did you choose which word to circle? What inspired this piece?
This project questions our relationship to society. I used old newspapers, but I didn't just take them on the wall as ready-made documents. I insisted on reading each of them to penetrate another way of expressing history (the language of them is a bit different to language now). I found that there was a continuity between problems that humanity lived with 80 years ago and the problems of today. So, to emphasize this idea of "reading", I circled just one word that describes a general concept I found in that particular paper which I also find particularly relevant for today.
What was the process of making the monograph of the past 15 years of your work like?
I worked with Alice Motard and Romaric Favre to make decisions about it. I wanted something classical, so we decided that it would be two essays and an interview, then images. I also decided to ask the author Magali Nachtergael to rework a beautiful text she had previously published in a magazine. I invited Mieke Bal, a Dutch cultural theorist whose work I admire a lot, to write about my paintings. Rahma Kazam is an art historian and critic who is really into contemporary philosophy so I decided to do the interview with her.
I also asked Vincent Honoré, a curator with whom I work a lot, to organize a visual essay. He gave a shape and a path, to my 15 years of work…
Thèbes will be on display at CAPC until September 2. It will then travel to Bristol to be shown at Spike Island from October 5 to December 16.

Completed hairpin frame brackets, with tapered holes.
Written as a companion to my earlier post Home-Made Hairpins.
I spent part of Presidents Day completing brackets needed to attach the front hairpins & rear end radius arms to the Model A frame.
Earlier, I flame cut 3" wide strips of 3/8" 1/4" thick steel plate to use as the base to which tapered-hole bungs will be welded.
A lot of hot rodders would stop there, drill holes, and bolt this mount straight down, off the side of the frame. I'm going for a more finished look, so I'll take it a few steps further.
Next, I heated and bent the plate 90°. Evenly heating a band to a dull red (front & back) just above the vise, made hammering the steel over easy as cake. I used a Harris #2 Rosebud tip. From lighting the torch to the completed bend took about one-minute. Then let the steel air cool off the vise.
After marking the piece, I used my cutting torch this time, to cut off the excess. Then using the bench grinder to clean it up a bit. Next I cut & shaped a hole to fit the tapered-hole Speedway 'shock mount'.
Hot rodding books from the 50's told readers to cut off tapered tie-rod eyes from steering arms found on car spindles. This could still be done today from just about any junk car or truck. But at $2.99 each from Speedway Motors, it's much cleaner & easier.
After fitting the mount into the bracket (making sure I have the correct side of the mount facing out), and chamfering the hole as a valley for the weld, I set the welder on high. A nice MIG weld bead, front and back, completes the joining of two pieces.
I took an architectural class in high school.
Some final machine sanding, and the brackets actually look a little too good for a 1950's track car.
The next thing I have to do is fit the rear radius arms with threaded tube & tie-rod ends. Then tack these brackets to the underside of the frame rails, after I've 'measured twice'.


Rich in refined luxury, the Rosabella collection from Kaisercraft is stylishly chic with a mysterious edge. Deep dusty pinks and gorgeous script sentiments are perfectly balanced by dark floral imagery, resulting in an intoxicating mix of sophistication and beauty.
Papers are available in 12" x 12" and 6.6" x 6.5", and have coordinating curios embellishments (NEW), die-cuts ephemera (collectables), stickers, chipboard, stamps and templates.
12" x 12" sheet of co-ordinating stickers for the collection, including alphabets.
Pack of six beautiful glass domes measuring 25.4mm in diameter.


On Thursday, March 23, the Appling County Pirates played host to the Toombs County Bulldogs. The Pirates won the non-conference game with a 7-2 score.
The Pirates traveled to Liberty County on Friday, March 24 to play against the Panthers. Appling County defeated the Panthers with a 12-0 score.
The Pirates are scheduled to play the Long County Blue Tide team on Tuesday, March 28 at home. ACHS then faces Pierce at home on March 31. First pitch is scheduled for 6:00 p.m.

Ganga Zumba fut le premier souverain du Quilombo dos Palmares élu par une assemblée de chefs.

Étymologie

Deux hypothèses différentes ont été émises.

Pour la première, le titre de Ganga Zumba provient de la langue kikongo et s'écrit originellement Nganga Zumbu. Ce titre signifie littéralement "spécialiste en maquisage"

Il était du clan mpanzu, clan de l'ancêtre forgeron (guerriers) et fut "l'homme qui infligeat 25 défaites aux troupes hollandaises et portugaises"

Pour la seconde, Ganga Zumba s'écrit dans la langue angolaise kimbundu Ganazumba et signifie « Grand Seigneur ». On trouve trace de cette dernière graphie dans les archives de l'Université de Coimbra, au sein d'une lettre écrite au Ganga Zumba par le gouverneur du Pernambouc en 1678.

Ambiguïté

Une ambiguïté demeure sur la nature du Ganga Zumba : était-ce le nom d'un esclave ou un titre ? Pour l'historien Peter Fryer, il s'agit d'un titre. Les rares documents d'époque semblent corroborer cette hypothèse, puisqu'il semble difficilement recevable qu'un esclave ait opportunément porté le nom de « Grand Seigneur » avant de le devenir effectivement. Il en irait de même pour le Zumbi, identifié comme un individu mais qui serait en fait le titre de commandant militaire.

Toutefois il se peut qu'on ait identifié plus spécifiquement un des Ganga Zumba, certainement plus notable que les autres porteurs du même titre, et qu'on ait personnifié la fonction de Ganga Zumba à tel point que Ganga Zumba est devenu un nom de personne.

Fonctions

Territoire administré

Bien que Quilombo dos Palmares soit perçu comme un territoire où les individus vivaient égaux, une assemblée de chefs votaient afin d'élire un représentant suprême ou roi, du nom de Ganga Zumba. Celui-ci régnait sur un territoire de dix mocambos (refuge d'esclave) évalué à près de  kilomètres carrés en 1630 et comportant approximativement  âmes, noirs, métis, indiens et même blancs. Le centre de gouvernement du Ganga Zumba était le plus important village de Palmares, Cerra dos Macacos. Les neuf autres refuges d'esclaves étaient tenus par des membres de sa famille. Aux environs de 1670, Ganga Zumba disposait d'un palais, de trois épouses, de gardes, de ministres et de sujets.

Actions

En 1678, Ganga Zumba accepta un traité de paix avec le gouverneur portugais du Pernambouc dans lequel il s'engageait à déplacer son domaine vers la vallée de Cucaú.

Zumbi dos Palmares qu'on dit être son neveu, se serait soulevé et aurait mené une rébellion contre son oncle. Dans la confusion, Ganga Zumba fut empoisonné et nombre de ses partisans qui obéirent à son ordre et se déplacèrent vers la vallée de Cucaú ont été de nouveau réduits à l'état d'esclaves par les Portugais. Zumbi dos Palmares perpétua la résistance contre les Portugais.

Home » Zoom Drain and Sewer heads into franchising
Zoom Drain and Sewer heads into franchising
Steve Solla used to be easy to find. During the day, you could track him down at the mailroom of a pharmaceutical company. At night, you could swing by the neighborhood Ruby Tuesday and head back to the kitchen where he'd be washing dishes. And if you needed him on the weekends, you'd find him at a carpet store.
Three jobs. Almost 100 hours a week. No chance for any overtime, since they were all part-time jobs.
"It was just constant, just always working," Steve said. "But, I wasn't making much at any of them."
He knew he had to do something. As luck would have it, Zoom Drain and Sewer, had a contract to handle drain work at the pharmaceutical business. One conversation led to another and soon, Steve, with zero trade experience, was sitting in a classroom learning the ropes as a paid apprentice.
"I was looking for a trade, but didn't really have money to go to trade school," Steve said. "I was just looking for anywhere I could get my foot in the door, and I got lucky that they took a chance on me."
For a month, Steve spent his days riding along with experienced techs helping wherever he could. At night, he learned through classroom instruction along with hands-on training in a specially built drainage facility onsite at Zoom that featured working plumbing fixtures and drain lines. Zoom runs its operations throughout the Philadelphia metro area from an office in Norristown.
That was eight years ago. Steve worked his way up from apprentice to junior tech, then senior tech, and now field supervisor. With each change in title came additional training and pay boosts.
"He's on his way," said Jason Criniti, service manager, who handles most of the tech training and owns the business along with his brother Jim, the general manager.
"I think that one of the big things that I do here is to help recruit, hire, train and retain techs," Jason said. "We could build an army with the structure we've put in place."
Jason said the training program can take anyone with an interest in learning a trade and have them out on the road as a profitable tech in six months – three months if they have some background in plumbing and drain cleaning.
In addition to classroom and hands-on training to instill the basics, Jason also teaches from manuals that spell out various procedures for most every aspect the tech will need to conduct business. And, the training delves into much more than just the technical side. For example, Jason will teach techs how to handle customer objections and other soft skills anyone who interacts with people throughout the day needs.
Franchise plans
Zoom's orchestrated system of training alone would make a worthwhile cover. But Zoom is using that system in a way that makes it even more newsworthy. Along with two well-known consultants who have signed on as partners in the endeavor, Zoom plans to franchise the business. And while the franchise plans are at a very early stage, Zoom has already sold a franchise to a successful 30-year-old plumbing business on Long Island.
But before we talk about Zoom's future, let's talk about its past since it wasn't always looking this rosy for the brothers.
Jim and Jason started Zoom in 1995, but had worked in the plumbing and draining cleaning business with their father long before they decided to focus solely on drain work. In a short amount of time, the business was prospering. But by the early 2000s, they needed some help to revitalize the business.
"It was all the usual contractor frustrations that everybody has," Jim admitted. "It's hard to find help. Even when you do, a tech will still disappoint you. It got to a point where I just didn't like coming into the office anymore."
From Jason's vantage point, the company was doing some things right, but just not enough.
"We would have it in writing one day and lose the paper the next," he said.
For help, Jim and Jason reached out to Ellen Rohr, PHC News columnist and someone who has long helped contractors through her Bare Bones Biz consulting work. Ellen, by and large, helps straighten out companies' finances.
Around the same time that Ellen was working on the company ledgers, the brothers also called in Al Levi, another top-notch contractor consultant who specializes in developing winning systems that are spelled out in operations manuals. Levi provides contractors with a virtual library of successful contractor practices.
"A lot of Ellen and Al's work is just common sense stuff," Jim said, "but you need that kick in the butt to push things along."
After Ellen and Al completed their assignments, Jim and Jason continued to build Zoom, more energized than before. Jim not only enjoyed the work again, but also quit smoking and even ran a half marathon.
A couple of years ago, Jim and Jason started to think about franchising. Neither knew too much, so Jim eventually went to some franchising conferences. Ellen and Al, along with Ellen's sister, Gail Gudell, routinely hold an annual meeting of the minds to consider what further directions they each or all together might take. And, at last year's meeting, they began thinking about franchising.
Ellen already had solid experience in the field as a past president of Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, which was part of Clockwork Home Services, which also had electrician and HVAC franchises. (Those franchises all continue to operate following an acquisition several years ago by Direct Energy.)
The three had all done work to right the wrongs of contracting business throughout the country. Would it be a challenge to put some of these practices to work for a business they could nurture into a potential franchise?
Ellen wanted to take a more leisurely pace of building such a business.
"I did not want the pressure to sign on X number of franchises every month," she explained. "I ended up signing 47 franchises in under two years when I was at Ben. That was a great experience for me, but it also made me wonder, could I have moved less fast and focused on fewer businesses?"
For the record, no one wants to take the singular credit for formally launching Zoom onto franchising. So, let's just chalk it up to serendipity. Ellen now serves as president of Zoom with Levi as a partner, along with the brothers, who also have ownership stakes.
Hub and spoke
One business aspect that the partners believe will help the franchise is by implementing a "hub-and-spoke" approach to growth. Think of the hub as one central office. The spoke – and, of course, there can be many spokes that radiate from a hub – are essentially the service centers of the business. Taken together, the hub and its spokes would make up a Zoom franchise.
"The hub would take care of the administrative functions, the financial, the marketing, legal, operations and the call center," Ellen said. "Then the spokes would access those services through a field supervisor who oversees a service and install crew."
Now, another important element to the plan is that the partners want to remain in urban areas. Think "big city" and the first thing that probably comes to mind is "traffic." As a result, the spoke is best situated, say, 30 miles from the hub. That way, the techs can get to their calls without spending undue, unprofitable time spent stuck in traffic. Such a plan frees up the techs to do what they do best.
"The great things about the hub-and-spoke model is that we can peel off field supervisors and senior techs from here and put them at their own locations," Jim said. "That's the game plan."
According to Ellen the techs are the key players in this franchise approach.
"Everyone talks about this dearth of manpower but there's plenty of manpower and woman-power out there," she said. "When I go to a convention, when I talk to a lot of people in our industry, they are not talking nicely about their team members, and I've had it with that. I want the honor and respect techs because they're the ones who are going to help us grow this thing."
'Pure play'
Another vital aspect to the game plan is what Ellen calls a "pure play" approach. Which is to say that the company plans to stay in the business of drain cleaning services and drainage systems installation. Other franchises, for example, might start off in, say, drain cleaning, but then venture into plumbing as a primary means to grow the overall franchise operation.
Jim and Jason figure there's a good reason to specialize in drain work.
"It seems like a natural offshoot of any plumbing business," Jim said. "But it can be a distraction if they aren't geared up to do it. At this point, there is so much to the technology with drain cameras and water-jetting equipment that plumbers are realizing that they need a lot of expensive equipment if they were going diversify into this type of work and do it right."
Not surprisingly, Zoom considers plumbers as there No. 1 source for referrals on new business.
New franchise
Zoom already has a new franchisee by way of Ray Gremaux who has run Ray the Plumber, out of Islip, N.Y., since 1984. A quick look at the business' website shows local accolades for its long-time service. Ray's partner with Zoom is Jason Kim.
"I think our training is what Ray, Jason and everyone at the Long Island business loved the most about the idea," Jason said. "We can get guys on those trucks quickly by giving them the technical experience and knowledge that they need. "
Jim agrees. "He's had a hard time training techs, but he's very confident in his abilities to get jobs. Ray's a very good marketer. He'll have plenty of calls. His problems always been training, and that's where we fit in to him," Jim said.
In the meantime, Ellen will be keeping more businesses like Ray's in mind. The types that are successful but continue to come up against the common lament about hiring the next generation of techs.
"Ray is a very good fit," Ellen said. "What I'm looking for is someone who wants to solve the 'I can't find good people' problem, and seize an opportunity of working in a small like-minded group to be better together."

Termites (commonly known as white ants) are one of the most destructive pests in Australia. They cause millions of dollars damage to homes and structures throughout Melbourne and Victoria every year. According to CSIRO 1 in 3 homes will be affected by termites within the economic life of the structure. Termites are found in Melbourne and throughout all of Victoria, all too often, the presence of these home invaders goes undetected until damage is discovered by chance.This damage is not covered by insurance companies.
When termites find it too difficult to burrow through a certain object, they will create mud tunnels as a means of protecting themselves from external dangers like weather and predators. Termites build mud tubes made of mud, dirt, and saliva to and from a source of food.
Mud or dirt appearing in gaps around door jambs or skirtings is often termite/white ant mudding and is associated with their activity, however often there is no detectable damage in the timbers.
Damage to stored items like boxes of papers or books stored in sub-floor or storage areas are attacked by termites/white ants. Not only is timber a food source for termites but paper and any cellulose material is highly desirable to them as well.
When termites are active in or around your home, you'll could see swarms of them usually on window sills or near lights inside your home. A "swarm" is a group of adult male and female reproductives that leave their nest to establish a new termite colony. Swarmers are usually found during a warm day commonly after recent rain. Swarmers found outside near sources of wood does not necessarily meant your home is infested. Finding swarmers inside your home is more serious and could indicate and infestation of you home.

ISTANBUL, Turkey -- An Egyptian plane carrying 163 people to Poland caught fire Thursday after making an emergency landing at Istanbul's international airport, a government official said. One passenger was slightly injured.
The fire in the Egyptian plane owned by AMC Airlines was extinguished, and there was no loss of life, said the official at the state agency in charge of airports. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not allowed to talk to the media.
The plane was forced to land in Istanbul due to a technical problem, but its landing gear failed to work properly. The aircraft landed on its fuselage, starting a fire, the official said.
There were 156 passengers and seven crew members aboard, and one of the passengers was slightly injured, he said.
