What does your daily routine look like? Since most of us may have nine to five type jobs, it can be hard to understand the daily routines of others like dairy farmers and their team of employees.
So, keeping that in mind and in honor of National Agriculture Day, here's a glimpse into some of the many activities that take place on the country's nearly 47,000 dairy farms.
Depending on the farm, cows may be milked two to three times daily – every single day. (And no, farmers don't have holidays, weekends, sick, or other days off.) Many farms use milking machines in buildings called milking parlors, and some farms have adopted robotic milker technology. This equipment allows cows to line up so they can be milked in stalls or a rotary system, which resembles a very slow-moving carousel that you may remember from your trip to the county fair. Those milking the cows clean and dry each cow's udder before the milking machine gently and safely goes to work. The milk flows from the cow through cool, sanitized pipes and is stored in a refrigerated milk tank. It's never touched by human hands to make sure it stays safe.
Each morning, farmers provide fresh feed and water for their cows, who have access to it all day long. In fact, each cow drinks about a bathtub's worth of water each day and eats about 100 pounds of feed each day, which can consist of hay, grain, vitamins, and more. Farmers work with dairy cow nutritionists to develop well-balanced meals for their cows.
Since calves are the future of a dairy farm, farmers take special precautions to make sure they're safe and healthy. Calves receive milk a few times each day for their first few months, then they transition to a diet of hay and grain. Depending on the farm, they may each live in their own pens for the first few weeks or months to protect their health and ensure a healthy start. This also allows the farmer and their employees to closely monitor its behavior and how much a calf is eating.
Besides being monitored daily for health issues by the farm team, every few weeks a large animal veterinarian visits to provide regular check-ups. They not only diagnose and treat illnesses with proper medications when a cow is sick, but more importantly, they also they work with the farmer and their team to update protocols to make sure that cows stay healthy.
Dairy farmers know it's important to provide cows with clean, dry, comfortable areas to rest in. Depending on where the farm is located, these areas may vary. On some farms, cows rest in barns. In warmer areas, cows may spend their days in open pens or pastures. No matter where the cows live, those working with them take special care to make sure their living areas are cleaned regularly.
Many farmers host tours or are active on social media sharing the daily happenings on their farm with photos and videos of calves being born, cows getting milked, how they take care of their land and beautiful sunrises.
While employees communicate throughout the day, many farms may have an official time when the farm team connects. From talking about the upcoming tasks to discussing their cows and reviewing safety trainings, there's always something to share.
Every day, dairy farmers work to preserve our natural resources and protect the land, air and water. Nutrient management plans guide the amount, source, placement, and timing of manure on fields. A natural fertilizer, recycled manure, helps crops grow and reduces the need for chemical fertilizers on the farm. To figure out the best plan for the farm's crops, employees also meet regularly with soil experts.
While this may be the second time today when a farm's cows are milked, employees watch the cows around the clock to make sure they're comfortable. For example, depending on the weather, employees may turn on misters and fans during warmer weather or put out extra bedding and use curtains to block winds in the winter.
Since dairy is one of the most regulated and inspected industries in agriculture, farmers work closely with federal and state government agencies, including inspectors from state regulatory agencies and milk processing plants that make unannounced visits to farms on a regular basis. These meetings are in addition to regular visits with other members of their team that includes soil conservationists and animal nutritionists.
It's time to feed the calves again! By checking in on them throughout the day, the farm team keeps close watch over each calf. During this time they may also provide additional bedding or even coats during cold weather.
When calves are born, they are given an identification number so the farmer can track her throughout her life. This includes birth date and health records, such as vaccinations, calving information, illness, and treatment. Farmers also capture the amount of milk each cow gives, and record information such as how much of one nutrient is applied to their fields, at what rate, volume, date, and more.
Births can happen any time of day (or night) – the farmer and their team will make sure that they're always ready to jump into action to take care of the cow and her calf. For example, when a cow goes into labor, the cow and her coming calf are closely monitored. If needed, help with birthing is readily available at all times from the team and, if necessary, a veterinarian – even in the middle of the night. Once born, calves receive a bottle of colostrum (the mother's first milk), which is rich in fat, protein and natural immunity-building antibodies. They also receive vaccinations to make sure they get off on the right start.

Chapter Twelve: Exploring
[Chapter Eleven can be found here.]
When he returned alone to the Mango Bar later that evening, El's equilibrium seemed restored, restored most emphatically compared to the near wreck Paul had spent the last few days with. He appeared as genuinely gentle as Paul had seen he could be, and serene, though his hand still occasionally stroked the videotape, now back in its bag. Neither Paul nor Jeff asked about it, but the showing had somehow completed a cycle for El, had brought him back to a sort of interior safety. He sat way back in his chair once he had been dropped off, for the most part just watching Jeff and Paul talk, making little effort to join in—and drinking little. Out of deference to him, they had moved away from the topic of Joanie, Paul questioning Jeff about the Peace Corps experience.
"You want to see brousse life for a day or so?" El asked Paul, a beer or two (for the talkers) later, "If you do, I'll take you up to my place, so you can see how we really live."
"Sure." After what he had heard from Jeff, Paul was getting interested in the lives of these PCVs despite himself, despite seeing them initially as a little less than the friends he would choose. Now, he wanted to see a little more of this fractured group of people that he'd fallen in with. "I would like that."
"We'll have to take a taxi up, for my moto's chained at my house, but it's only a thirty minute ride."
"I don't mind. I didn't think the bus today was too bad."
"This will be a little pickup, crowded and dusty. But it won't be for long." El stood up and stretched. "Come on. Let's get some sleep." He paused, lowering his hands and looking down the road. "You know, for the first time in a long time, I'm ready to get home. I'm tired and want to go to bed."
"OK." They left Jeff, who was expecting some of the others to return for a little more drinking, and made their way back to the house where they had dropped their bags. It sat within a small compound; built of cinderblocks; its windows and doors were metal with louvers over screens and no glass. The bed El showed Paul had a mosquito net hung above it. El helped Paul lower it, explaining that the house's screens were not very effective and that, though malaria wasn't such a great problem in the area, it paid to be attentive.
Once in bed, Paul felt a little peculiar. He didn't like the feeling of being shrouded that the whiteness of the netting gave him, and he woke several times during the night, distracted by the slight swaying of the ghostly material. Once, his hand sneaked out from under the net, and mosquito bites startled and woke him. Another time, he rolled against the net, allowing the mosquitoes to get at him through it. All in all, as a result, it wasn't a very satisfactory sleep and he was up soon after dawn. He was glad they wouldn't be staying there longer, and hoped he could either learn to sleep under the net soon or would always find rooms with screens.
El heated water for coffee on a little two-burner propane stove while pouring cold water from a small kerosene-driven refrigerator into Paul, who was once more a little bit hung-over and dehydrated.
"You've got to learn to drink something other than beer and coffee around here," he said, once they were about finished with their breakfast of mangos and a bit of stale bread El had discovered in the kitchen and had packed up to leave.
"Yeah, right."
"I'm serious. Dehydration can be a big problem. Drink liquids all day, whether you are thirsty or not. Whenever you get the chance. And I don't mean beer and coffee, but rehydrating liquids."
"I haven't seen you do that."
El laughed, "Believe me, I do." He got up, grabbed his bag, and motioned for Paul to follow. They walked out into the street, pushing the heavy courtyard door closed and locking it with a large, efficient-looking padlock.
The bachet they got on in the Kara gare left quickly and soon dropped them off on the edge of the paved road where a small dirt lane stretched between fields of what El said was millet or, in a few cases, sorghum. Mango trees again dotted the landscape and, just off the road, one of those huge, gnarled trees with deformed-looking branches rose above all the rest. It was bigger than any Paul had seen before. For some reason, to Paul, its branches looked more like roots. He couldn't help but stare at it.
"What's that again? I've forgotten the name." They had picked up their bags and were starting down the lane.
"That's a baobab tree, the greatest tree in Africa."
"Looks sort of, well, stumpy, though it is big."
"People say the baobab used to be a fine, spreading tree with great leaves, but it got uppity, and challenged god. To show his displeasure, god pulled the baobab out of the ground and stuck it back in upside down. That being why it looks as it does today."
"I like that." Paul stared at the tree as they walked, taking in the improbable outline, imprinting its solemn, silent magnificence onto his memory as though he might never see another. "I was wondering if anyone else thought the branches looked like they should be underground."
El saw that Paul was still staring at the tree and laughed. "Don't worry; they're common. You'll see many that far outstrip that one."
Further down the lane, Paul could see the grouping of houses that, El informed him, made up the village of Massiga, where he was posted, where he had lived for the past year and a half. The road passed over a stream, and El told Paul that he had managed to get hold of the culvert tube under them (one of the aid organizations was about to throw it away) in Kara and had transported there it via oxcart at the very end of the past dry season. This year, the rains had not yet washed out the road, so El was hoping that the culvert was actually doing its job and that the road would prove passable year around.
"But one should never expect success, not here, not in Africa. We didn't dig far enough, didn't place the tube down enough. So it might get washed out itself. Might cause things to be worse than before."
"Why didn't you go deeper?"
"It rained, and no one would have been able or willing to work on it more, even another day. So I decided to finish as quickly as we could."
"What did the rain matter?"
"They had to plant. Everyone works on the planting. All else stops."
They walked on.
The village they arrived in, Paul saw, consisted of eight or ten round, brown compounds, with round, thatch-roofed rooms built into the walls, all set within what looked like a mango grove. The compounds had no doorways, just open spaces, and in the center of each a fire smoldered beneath a huge blackened pot or two. Children ran out and surrounded El, a couple of them taking his bag from his hands, all of them speaking to him. One of them shyly put his hand on Paul's bag. Paul released his grip and let the kid carry it. Ahead of them, several older men were reclining in the shade of a the largest of the mango trees, sitting on long, low benches. El headed for them.
What he said, Paul could not understand. Some of the words were French, and he did catch a few, but others were in the local language. El shook hands with all of the men, then made what Paul could recognize as an introduction, so he, too, stuck his hand into those of the others. The men smiled, and indicated that the two newcomers should sit with them.
A woman came out of one of the compounds carrying a clay pot and two calabash bowls much like those in the hands of some of the men or resting by them. She handed a calabash each to Paul and El and poured in a milky liquid from the pot.
"This is 't'chakpa or t'chakpa-lo.' As you get even further north, they'll call it 'dolo,' but it's the same thing."
"And just what is that?"
"Oh," El smiled, "millet beer. People drink a lot of it around her. And when you drink it, smile. You don't want to insult anyone's hospitality. Which means, by the way, that, if anyone ever offers you something to eat, anything at all, always take a little of it. Complete rejection is an insult. Oh, and watch what I do before you drink, and do the same."
He swirled the liquid in his calabash and then poured a little bit of it on the ground. "Pour les ancestres." For the ancestors. Paul watched and imitated. The oldest man nodded, but Paul had a funny feeling that the others thought the gesture polite but a little silly.
They drank. To his surprise, Paul found the concoction sweet and cool, though grainy and gritty, odd on the tongue and with a distinct residue. He smiled and nodded himself, and said thanks in English, then in French.
"That man in the white robe is the village chief," El told him, between bits of conversation with the men. "I was posted here because he had bought a pair of oxen and wanted help in learning to use them in his fields. Now I go around to villages, do demonstrations, and teach people how to repair their plows."
Paul surreptitiously examined each of the men, trying to imagine their lives here, in a landscape that could be on the moon, for all he could understand of it. What did they think about? What was "normal" to them? He looked at them, top to bottom, all of their faces harshly lined, some cheeks sunken, others full, hair graying, the muscles on their exposed arms and calves stringy but clearly still strong. Each reclined comfortably on a wooden seat. They were talking to each other in low tones and short statements, speaking louder only when addressing the Americans or the group as a whole. They sipped their own drinks, watched the land around them, and occasionally laughed and something another had said. Paul gave up trying to get a fix on them. He had realized that it was a futile exercise to try to build a conception of their lives or thoughts; never had he encountered people this different from what he was only beginning to see was an American, not a human norm. He lowered his head but found he was staring at them anyway, entranced, fascinated, and still wondering.
After what El deemed a reasonably polite length of time, he excused the two of them and took a reluctant Paul away and over to his own compound, newer and smaller than the others, and lacking the fire in the center.
One of the rooms didn't have a roof, but a rude tripod atop the walls that had been erected in its place. "That's my shower. I brought this solar shower thing, a plastic bag with a shower head attached, that you sit in the sun so you have hot water. I rigged that up," he pointed to a rope through a pulley hanging from the top of the tripod. "I lower the bag, siphon water from that big jug," he pointed, "and raise it back up. By evening, I've got a solar-heated hot shower!"
El's other buildings were a kitchen with a propane stove, a broken kerosene refrigerator, a large, lidded caldron filled with water, a water filtration system made of two large plastic buckets one set in the other, and a series of shelves built up near the thatch of the roof and holding a variety of packaged goods; a store-room; a bedroom; a smaller guest room; and, just outside the main compound wall, an open-sided shed where his motorcycle was chained. Right beyond was a paiotte, an open-sided but covered sitting area.
"I had all of this built about eight months ago. Was living in the compound of one of the families, but wanted a place of my own, and wanted to learn more about how they build around here. Wanted to get involved in that directly."
"Nice." It did look inviting. The ground in the compound had been cemented over and was well-swept. The rooms were dark and the low, cloth-slung folding chairs that El dragged out to the paiotte were comfortable. El drew a couple of bottles of BB from the bottom of the caldron in the kitchen and handed one to Paul, who felt its cool side, surprised. "And the beer's cold! I thought you guys lived the hard life."
"Oh, it can be hard enough… but not compared with PCVs in places like Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso. Yeah, for the most part, we've an easy life here. Still, it's easy for any of us to get sick, for one thing." He popped the cap off his beer and flipped it away, snapping it between thumb and forefinger so that it arched like a Frisbee. "Malaria's not so common up here as in the south, but it's still around, and there's lots of other things." He took a drink and smiled, but this time Paul noticed a slightly diabolic twitch in place of the usual self-deprecation.
"Ever heard of Guinea worm?"
"It's particularly nice. Get it, and the worm eventually pops its head out of your skin. You can't pull it out, though, for it will break, part of it stay inside, and make you really sick. So you have to wait until enough of it is out for you to wind it around a stick. Then, each day, you wind it a little further, until it comes out entirely."
"Sounds wonderful." Paul shuddered and drank a little more beer. Hell, he thought, I'm committed to this trip now, so I'm not going to think about things like that. El, though, continued with a litany of diseases, describing them in detail until they had finished their drinks and decided it was time for sleep.
The following few days, the ones he spent with El in Massiga, proved to be the most idyllic Paul would pass in Africa, though neither Paul nor El was particularly happy, each sinking, too often, into private regrets and ruminations over the losses they had suffered, real on El's part and largely imaginary, on Paul's. But neither of them wanted to press the other with his own aches or woes, so neither spoke at all of loss. During the evenings, Paul listened to El's stories about the adventures—more often, misadventures—of Peace Corps Volunteers, drinking in information about their successes and failures, about Africa and about the cultures around him.
In the mornings, he helped El recondition plows and ready them for storage until next year, working large bolts loose with rudimentary wrenches and covering everything in grease. Also in the mornings, soon after leaving El's compound on one errand or another, they would be invited to drink millet beer. For the first time in his life, Paul found himself generally tipsy by noon. In the late afternoons, usually after the day's rain, they wandered around, sometimes on foot, with El showing Paul some of the sights about the village, sometimes going off on El's moto and visiting other PCVs and the various Togolese El felt he needed to greet now that he had returned. At night, they drank bottled beer, sitting outside at El's and talking about everything and anything either of them could think of.
They spent more time with Rachel and Bouk, whom Paul had met at the Mango Bar, than with anyone else. Rachel's post wasn't far from El's, and Bouk worked for the animal traction program in Kara, so often dropped by to talk to El. Generally, Rachel, who worked with women's cooperatives, would be with him: they tried to dovetail their schedules as much as possible. Paul had a feeling that they were also making a particular effort to look in on El frequently, still worried about his emotional recovery.
Bouk had a bigger motorcycle than the Yamaha DT100's of the PCVs, a Suzuki. Because of Peace Corps regulations, Paul couldn't ride the Volunteers' bikes, but Bouk had no such restrictions. He gladly, along with El and Rachel, gave Paul a few basic lessons, getting him to the point where he could shift without stalling and accelerate without falling off. Though Paul wanted to, they wouldn't let him take the bike out on the roads. He had to be satisfied riding on the dirt paths around the village, scaring chickens and guinea hens, avoiding goats and sheep, dismounting breathless from the excitement of it, once he had made it back to the compound.
A couple of times, El and Bouk had to go off together in a service pick-up, leaving the bike for Paul to practice on, going slowly on the paths, standing on the pegs like he had been told, riding over small logs, through the creek, and up the small hill behind the village, never going more than fifteen or twenty kilometers an hour. He expected he drove the women working in Massiga compounds crazy with the noise, but the kids seemed to love watching him, especially when he would fall, landing easily on the soft rainy-season soil.
So it was that, there in Massiga, Paul slowly began to fall in love with Africa, falling in love without ever knowing it was happening, not until many further months had passed, at least. Never before had he experienced a life lived at such a refined pace as that he saw around him, once he had learned to see beyond the simply oppression of poverty. It seemed remarkable to him, for that same life was a harsh one, in the village as on the continent as a whole. Famine wasn't unknown, and disease was a constant. Dust got into everything all the time, making cleaning a perpetual task. Though some now used oxen for plowing, the farming was still tough work. The only manufactured items anyone owned were a few pieces of clothing, most of them ragged but one dress outfit, a light blanket, maybe a bicycle, possibly a transistor radio. Someone in the village owned a bicycle pump, a few others had a tool or two, and the chief had an old Mobylette that didn't often run. Other odds and ends were secreted around the village, but there really wasn't much, though most people had some cash stashed somewhere in their compounds. The pride of the village was a small gas-driven mill for grinding grain. Its noise provided the backdrop the market days, when people brought in their grain.
Though he began to see what life was in the village, and to identify some of the things that had, on arrival, seemed baffling strange, Paul knew he still had little insight into its people, history, or possibility—so far. He wasn't sure he could ever gain that, no matter how long he might stay, but he was fascinated by the inhabitants of Massiga, graceful and careful, slow and reticent. He tried, as best he could, to engage various people in conversation. Most were polite, but they had little to say to him. He discovered soon enough that many of them spoke no more French than he did, anyway, making any sort of meaningful discussion all but impossible. He also found that, except on a market day, few people but the old and the very young had time to sit around and talk. The urgencies of poverty kept them working, during the growing season, every possible moment.
What did they think about? What were the problems, besides basic survival, that concerned them? He wished he knew. As the days passed and he began to understand just how different he was from them, he ached to know. Almost anything he could enumerate as a concern of his at home, he observed, had a parallel in Massiga, but, oh, so different! He saw that there was longing, anger, jealousy, covetousness, everything he knew of. But the ways of dealing were different, and more difficult, mostly. Sometimes more direct, often with even more subterfuge.
Frustrated by his ignorance, he wanted to find out more about them, and peppered El with questions. When he could, he tried to get Bouk to talk, too, but Bouk, who lived in Kara and thought of himself as a city person, claimed to have little interest in the peculiarities of village life. He had electricity and even television at his house, and had been to school, earning a degree in agriculture at the national university in Lomé.
The local primary school, where most of the children spent at least a little bit of time, was in a village about a kilometer away. Though school wouldn't start for a few more weeks, El and Paul visited there so that El could tell a couple of the teachers that he was back and give them the few books he had thought to ship from the States. The school building was little more than three rooms in a row, one side open to the air, with simple benches and tables within.
Everyone in the village, Paul had discovered on the morning of the second day, rose at daybreak, to get as much work done as possible before the heat got too great. The noise of early activity made it difficult to oversleep. At eleven or twelve, depending on the urgency of the work, the time arrived for lunch and siesta. If needed, work resumed around four, and went on until dusk, at seven. The only important variation was market day, when trucks brought goods to fill the little market area and women brought in wood and millet beer on their heads, and tomatoes and onions. Men led in sheep and goats for sale and slaughter, and everyone drank and talked. Otherwise, work only stopped when it rained, and the rain, though often torrential, never lasted very long.
"It's too bad you won't be here after the harvest." El and Paul were sitting under a thatched awning, drinking t'chakpa and watching the market a few days after Paul had started trying out the motorcycle. "That's funeral time, when people have the money to celebrate the people who have died through the year. The funeral parties are awesome. Drinking, drumming and dancing through the night. For days, if the person was important enough."
"Wish I could stay, wish I could do that." Paul was realistic enough to know he was romanticizing the place, but he couldn't help it. "This is a wonderful village. I can't believe it. I mean, I wish I could just stay here like this."
El nodded. Paul saw he had once more gotten that wistful smile on his face.
After more than two weeks in the village, however much he was enjoying himself, Paul had to admit that it was getting to be time for him to move on. El probably would have let him stay longer, but there's no virtue in over-staying a welcome, even though Massiga was becoming a haven to him, a place where he could keep the world, and decisions (he admitted), at bay. A place where he didn't have to think of his own future, or his bit of poor decision-making or ill luck, still so recent and so much on his mind. Though less and less, he also had to admit.
But he really did want to learn more, to explore this culture, so different from his own and so much more, well, interesting. Something was awakening in him, a new curiosity and enthusiasm relating to what was, for him, the great unknown. The world of Massiga raised emotions in him unlike anything he had ever felt. He even went so far as to ask El, the evening before he left, what it took to join Peace Corps, thinking he might apply when he got home, though even then he knew he was seeing things rather too romantically.
"It's a tedious process." They were sitting under the paiotte watching the sunset. "If you decide to do, just keep at it, and eventually you will get in. But you have to push it, never giving up."
"Maybe I'll do that." The sky over the small hill to the west that hid the sun glowed red behind a low strip of clouds. It cast a baobab just south of the hill into steely relief. "It would make this trip worthwhile. Rather than just a vacation, rather than just a stupid quest that led me to fall flat on my face, maybe it will have led to something for me."
"Don't jump into it, though." El put down his beer bottle and looked around for a full one. "You may feel in love with Africa right now, but you also may hate it in a week. Wait until it sneaks up on you and smacks you in the back of the head. Then see how you feel about it."
Paul didn't respond to that. There was nothing, after all, that he could say to that. Not only had he never experience that, but El clearly had.
The next morning, El took him to down Kara on his moto and deposited him at the gare, where he quickly got on a taxi for Dapaong, far in the north of the country. It was almost full, and soon left. As the taxi passed the lane to Massiga an hour later, Paul stared off at the distant village and wondered for the thousandth time about the life he had glimpsed there, and about the life that El had once found there, but had lost a good part of when Joanie Rodham had been killed. He hoped El could find it again, for it must have been precious—and he wished he had been able to find a way to let El talk to him about it. They never had, no more than they had ever talked about how Paul had been dumped by his girlfriend.
Now, though, he had to move on. He couldn't join in with those lives, El's and the other PCVs of the region. It could never happen. Not here. Not with them. The barrier erected by their grief was just too large.

It no doubt was Benjamin Franklin who actually mentioned, "Simply by refusing to actually prepare, you are getting ready to get it wrong." A lot has changed on the planet since Benjamin's day, but the wisdom comprised within just that particular short assertion is still true. Exactly what does the idea indicate to be ready? Fundamentally, it implies to continually hold an individual's self at a state associated with preparedness to really deal with whatever comes about. It implies choosing safety measures to generally be able to manage unpredicted circumstances that might – or might not – happen.
Folks accomplish this by using time to think about all of the likely situations in advance that could arise. Circumstances such as currently being stuck by a blizzard, a authorities breakdown, or perhaps a nuclear explosion. The chances are good that simply no such situations will occur, but once they actually do – the organized individual is prepared plus able to fulfill the obstacle promptly. As a result, keep tapers plus ready strike matches when the electricity shuts off. Currently have firearms and also bullets nearby just in case an intruder breaks straight into your own home. Stockpile survival food by food4patriots upon the actual off opportunity the electric power grid fails and life as it is today ceases to successfully exist. They act like boy scouts, and therefore are totally prepared for any situation.

Attack on The Nation, TVC assault on Free Press, Democracy – Lai Mohammed
The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has described the recent attack on The Nation Newspaper and Television Continental (TVC), during the EndSARS protest in Lagos, as an attack on free speech and democracy.
The Minister made the assertion in Lagos on Saturday when he visited the two media organizations in Lagos to commiserate with their management and staff over the attack.
He said the action of the arsonists was a premeditated attempt to silence the voice of reason and stifle press freedom.
"We believe that the attack on the Nation is not just an attack on the Vintage Press, it's an attack on the free press, it's an attack on democracy, because there can be no virile and robust democracy without
a free media.
"Therefore, an attack on the Nation or any media house is a direct attack on freedom of speech and also democracy and, honestly, we believe that there is no justification whatsoever for the attack,"
Alhaji Mohammed said.
He however expressed his delight that a few days after the attack, the two media houses bounced back, a development which he described as a sign of the commitment and sheer determination by the organization's
management and staff to continue to promote democracy in the country.
"The fact that within a few days you were able to return to the stand and on air, I think it's a big blow to the attackers, who thought they could shut out the light of press freedom," the Minister said.
He strongly and unreservedly condemned the attack on the media houses, saying the attempt by the arsonists to stifle press freedom has failed woefully.
Alhaji Mohammed, who expressed sadness at the extent of damage to the corporate headquarter buildings and other properties of the two media houses, said there was every reason to thank God that no life was lost in the attack.
The Minister assured that the Federal Government will continue to support responsible journalism and wished the two media organizations a quick rebound in terms of properties, equipment and revenue losses.
The Chairman of The Nation Newspaper, Mr. Wale Edun, and the Managing Director of TVC, Mr. Andrew Hanlon, conducted the Minister round the premises of the two media organizations, respectively.
The Minister was accompanied on the visit by the Director General, Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, Dr. Mansur Liman; Managing Director, News Agency of Nigeria, Mr. Buki Ponle; Executive Secretary, Nigerian Press Council, Mr. Francis Nwosu; Registrar/CEO of the Advertising Practitioners Council of Nigeria, Dr. Olalekan Fadolapo and the Acting Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission, Prof. Armstrong Idachaba.

A sharp sense of the ironic can be the equivalent of the faith that moves mountains. Far more quickly than reason or logic, irony can penetrate rage and puncture self-pity.
A taste for irony has kept more hearts from breaking than a sense of humor, for it takes irony to appreciate the joke which is on oneself.
Britain and America are separated by the Irony Curtain.
If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort that it values more, it will lose that too.
Irony is the glory of slaves.
It was announced Gloria Steinem was recently married at the home of a lady friend named Wilma Mankiller, presumably in a bid by Ms. Steinem to see if she could get The Guinness Book of Irony to implode.
The irony is that in our decades, the combination of rationalism, asceticism, and individualism (the so-called Protestant Ethic) has produced precisely the system of boondoggling, luxury-consumption, and status.
To dread irony is to fear reason.
We didn't need light and shade, irony or humor. An iconic Daltrey bellow could convey an extrodinary range of human emotion; withering sadness, self pity, loneliness, abandonment, spiritual desperation, the loss of childhood, as well as the more obvious rage and frustration, joy and triumph.
When the government gives things names, you should keep your sense of irony handy.

Comicon Film race entry. Shortlisted for the final round. The origins of a supervillain.
Part of the Alfred University Freshman Foundations art experience. Technology makes us all forget to think.
"The Forgotten" is the seventy-second episode of the American science fiction television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the twentieth episode of season three. It first aired on April 28, 2004, on the UPN network in the United States.
Set in the 22nd century, the series follows the adventures of the first Starfleet starship Enterprise, registration NX-01. Season three of Enterprise features an ongoing story following an attack on Earth by previously unknown aliens called the Xindi - a group of five surviving races who each evolved on the same planet. The Enterprise enters the Delphic Expanse seeking to stop the superweapon with which the Xindi intend to destroy Earth.
Captain Archer directs Enterprise to rendezvous with Degra. He also orders Commander Tucker to write a letter to the parents of Jane Taylor, a member of his engineering team who died in a recent battle. Also, Sub-Commander T'Pol discusses with Doctor Phlox the consequences of her Trellium addiction, and is troubled when he tells her the damage to her ability to control emotions may be permanent - a more pessimistic prognosis than before.
Animorphs (also known under the promotional title AniTV) is a 26-episode television adaptation made by Nickelodeon of the Scholastic book series of the same name by K. A. Applegate. The series was broadcast from September 1998 to March 2000 in the United States and Canada, and in May 2013, reruns began airing on Qubo.
The Forgotten is a novel by Elie Wiesel, published in 1992 in French. It follows two men, Elhanan Rosenbaum, and his son Malkiel. Elhanan is suffering from an incurable disease that causes him to lose his memory slowly, something like amnesia. Elhanan tells Malkiel the story of his past before he forgets it all. Malkiel is compelled to go to the village in Romania where his father failed to stop a crime from occurring, a memory that continues to haunt him. Malkiel encounters the truth about his father and attempts to deal with the past.
The Forgotten is a 2004 American science fiction psychological thriller drama film, directed by Joseph Ruben and starring Julianne Moore and Dominic West.
The film's plot revolves around a woman who thinks that she lost her son in a plane crash 14 months ago, only to wake up one morning and be told that she never had a son. All of her memories are intact but with no physical evidence that contradicts the claims of her husband and psychiatrist, she sets out in search for solid evidence of her son's existence.
It was produced by Revolution Studios for Columbia Pictures and was released in the United States and Canada on September 24, 2004.
Telly Paretta (Julianne Moore) believes that her son, Sam (Christopher Kovaleski), died fourteen months ago in a plane crash, but her husband Jim (Anthony Edwards) tells her that she's delusional and that they have never had a son, and Eliot (Jessica Hecht) doesn't appear to believe in Sam's existence despite her closeness to him. Dr. Munce (Gary Sinise) tells her that Sam was merely a figment of her imagination and is just imagining a life that might have been. He recommends that she be sent to a hospital, but she runs away and meets with a man named Ash (Dominic West) who she thinks is the father of a girl (Kathryn Faughnan) who was friends with her son and died in the same crash. At first he dismisses her, claiming he never had a daughter, and calls the police. After she is taken into custody, however, he remembers his daughter and rescues Telly. Together they escape and go into hiding, pursued by National Security agents.

Stock market crash bargains! I'd buy these 2 dirt-cheap FTSE 100 stocks in an ISA
Harvey Jones | Monday, 19th October, 2020 | More on: BLND WTB
The stock market crash has left many top FTSE 100 stocks trading at dirt-cheap valuations. If you're looking to buy bargain shares, you are spoiled for choice right now.
Buying stocks that have been sold off in a stock market crash is risky, especially today. The economy faces a massive hit from Covid-19, and there could be more pain in the pipeline. However, history shows that buying shares at the moment of maximum uncertainty is a winning strategy.
Here are two risky stocks that could pay off. Buy them inside your Stocks and Shares ISA for tax-free returns, and look to hold for the long term.
Whitbread share price slump
The hospitality and leisure sector has been hit harder than most, with people locked down or banned from travelling, or nervously cutting back on their spending. Hotel and restaurant operator Whitbread (LSE: WTB) has inevitably had a tough time of it. Its share price fell by more than half in the stock market crash.
It has also failed to benefit from the recovery. While many FTSE 100 shares have posted healthy gains lately, the Whitbread share price still trades 4% lower than six months ago.
At the height of the first wave, Whitbread axed its dividend and temporarily shut all Premier Inn hotels in the UK and Germany. Last month, it announced 6,000 job losses, almost one in five of its workforce.
Whitbread, which also owns Brewers Fayre and Beefeater restaurants, trades at just 11.4 earnings today. This has alerted analysts at Berenberg, who reckon the current share price undervalues its real estate by half, leaving the group undervalued.
This is the type of opportunity investors should be sniffing out after a market crash. The Whitbread share price could fly out of the traps if, say, we get a vaccine or infection rates diminish. It's a tempting buy, but risky given current unknowns.
Stock market crash opportunity
Property development and investment company British Land Co (LSE: BLND) also saw its share price fall by more than half in the stock market crash, with little recovery since. That's despite announcing it was resuming its dividend payments earlier this month, as footfall and retailer sales picked up strongly.
British Land says its balance sheet remains strong, with £1bn of undrawn facilities and cash, with no requirement to refinance until 2024. It has collected 74% of June rents, 98% for offices and 57% for retail.
The pandemic has hit commercial property and bricks and mortar retailers as hard as the leisure and hospitality sector. If the pandemic worsens and unemployment rises, rents could be at risk. British Land has been investing heavily in central London office space, which hangs in the balance with the rise of home working.
These challenges are reflected in its valuation of 10.5 times earnings. You get a forecast yield of 3.7%. Like Whitbread, the British Land share price is cheap after the stock market crash, but comes with risks that some may found unacceptable.
Harvey Jones has no position in any of the shares mentioned. The Motley Fool UK has recommended British Land Co. Views expressed on the companies mentioned in this article are those of the writer and therefore may differ from the official recommendations we make in our subscription services such as Share Advisor, Hidden Winners and Pro. Here at The Motley Fool we believe that considering a diverse range of insights makes us better investors.

In 2018 over 1.8 billion US citizens lodged a travel trip. That's a ton of people who want to get out of their small town or 9 to 5 job.
When it comes to travel, people want tips that get them there and back without stress. But, whether you're going across borders or across town, most people have no clue what to do when traveling with a firearm.
Over 118 million households own a gun. That's a lot of people who need to know how to carry and transport their gun when they want some fun in the sun.
So what things should you know when traveling with a gun? Read on to find out.
Gun laws differ state by state. You can find out your gun carrying laws on the NRA's official website, but some tips aren't clear, such as the laws that apply to interstate gun laws.
If you're traveling with a firearm across the interstate, you have to have a permit to carry a gun or have one with you at all. In most cases, you need to have your gun and ammunition separated and out of reach.
Here's a tip: if you're traveling from one state to another, research the gun laws in the state you're traveling to and from. For example, if you're heading from California to Alaska, if you can have a firearm you can conceal it.
That is, in Alaska, it's legal for 21-year-old firearm owners to conceal their weapon. There are other states where reciprocity is applied. If you're in a state that is in accordance with Alaska state laws, you're allowed to carry and conceal your gun as well. Vice versa.
If you're planning on traveling in the US, pay attention to each states gun laws. Some of these laws will overlap between regions, giving you a break. If they do not, you will need to have your permit ready, and your weapon ammunition visible.
If you plan on traveling to another country, research their gun laws before arriving. Always study gun carry laws before you travel, even on boats. In the case of boating, for instance, you aren't checked before you sail. But, being found with illegally carried firearms after arriving can be a big problem.
Let's say you're going on a backpacking adventure. You might think with the little room you have a few extra rounds stored in your bag is fine. If you're traveling by bus, you cannot.
There aren't many travel options that afford you the right to bring gun ammunition aboard. Any Greyhound bus or train gives you a firm no. In some cases, such as if you're heavily permitted, you'll be allowed.
The TSA requires that you report ammunition before boarding the plane. You have to box and secure all small arms ammunition and large magazines. You can also bring your own personal ammo storage in some cases.
The size of ammunition matters too. If you exceed .75 caliber rounds you'll be forced to store your ammo separate from your weapon.
There is also a limit on the amount of ammunition you can bring. 350 rounds and above can create warning signs for TSA. In the case of Southwest Airlines, you can bring 11 pounds max.
Traveling to Asia, for instance, requires you bring your firearm on a plane. The TSA expects you to pack your gun, like you ammunition, in a secured box. What else do you need to know?
When you first arrive, you'll need to declare your firearms with the airline ticket counter. Before you do this, make sure that all of your weapons and ammo are secured.
If you're boarding a plane, your gun should be put into a checked bag. The box you store your gun it should be hard sided and locked. The box should also be empty of any ammunition.
That is, you should only store your gun the locked box, nothing else. The same applies to rifles and shotguns.
You have to prove you are a legally bound police officer. Furthermore, prove that you are approved in your state and your district.
You must be sworn (and commissioned) to represent your force, and its promise to reduce crime and immigration issues.
Show proof that you are then allowed to carry a firearm by your branch and district.
Completed TSA's armed flying training course.
After you've passed these basic checks, you have to prove your reasons for armed travel. Here are some reasons that work.
That your reason for traveling is to serve or protect in the place you land.
That you are guarding a criminal.
That you are protecting an official.
Even if these cases are met, you cannot travel armed if you are still in training, or if your purposes are not in the category the TSA mentions.
This step can be summarized by adding up all the steps before it. If you're going on a hunting trip you not only have to prove you can carry a firearm but prove you are able to hunt where you're going.
If you're bringing weapons with you, it's advised you bring a personal case you know won't get bent out of shape. That said, consider the rifle cases that are sturdiest for travel by plane.
It's also important to contact your airport agent ahead of time. If you're bringing gear with you, prepare to have it checked. By calling ahead of time you get to move through the line faster.
Typical baggage claims don't always apply to guns and hunting gear. Your airline representative can also tell you where your gear will end up once you've landed. Typical baggage claims don't always apply to guns and hunting gear.
Still, there are some tips to consider.
Wear something "normal" so you don't appear as a red flag.
Be candid with your ticket agent. She will make the process go better for you.
Try not to overestimate how much you can bring. Even if you meet all requirements with bag inspection and TSA, you can still end up losing a bag.
That said, try keeping your priority weapons and ammunition organized. Do not put all of your guns in one bag, as this could risk you having to dump everything out and start again.
Another piece of advice, if you're going hunting, don't put your prized gun or tool in a bag you think you might lose.
If you're transporting firearms you'll need a brand of weapon that doesn't break and disassembles easily. For instance, if you're taking a weapon that doesn't have a removable scope, it becomes difficult to separate and store the gun for flight.
Brands like Faxon Firearms are a great example. You can bring along high-quality barrels and ammunition without worrying about dysfunctional equipment when you land.
You can't bring all your ammo. Try sorting through rounds that will fit your needs best before going.
You can't check in every gun. Some are too large, some too heavy. That said, rely on firearms that suit your purposes and don't make your chances on a plane worsen.
Finally, it's best to bring firearms that are straightforward. That is, if you bring something into an airport that looks sketchy, it might take you longer to check your things in. Pick guns that are simple and perform their function without raising alarms.
Whether you're traveling across the US or jumping half-way across the world, there are sure-fire ways to bring your gun along with you.
If you plan on taking a gun on a trip, try researching all the regulations before going. Then, pack your firearms in a way you can trust and the world won't freak out.
Traveling with a firearm can be easy. You just need to learn the basics and then you're all set. So what do you say? Get your things together and prepare for one heck of an adventure!


In 1968, Barbara Hershey was the guest star on an episode of the TV series Run for Your Life. The actress, who had yet to begin her feature film career, had been a cast member on the short-lived series The Monroes the previous and was now doing various television guest appearances.
In the late 1960s, lots of TV shows began riffing on hippies and the counterculture. This episode deals with someone's runaway daughter who has become a hippie, though now she has written some questionable literature has to go on trial after being charged with obscenity. Of course, the star of the show, Ben Gazzara, finds her and helps her.
In the Run for Your Life episode uniquely titled "Saro-Jane, You Never Whispered Again," Barbara Hershey gets a chance to test out her hippie-girl persona. She would take similar characters to the big screen shortly thereafter. Here, she looks absolutely stunning and does a great job with her role, coming off as charming and effortlessly conveying the arrogance and naivete of her good-girl-gone-hippie character.
