Still in Europe and don't mention the football! - by C J Martin
Michael Aldridge was down to MC, but sent me a message on Facebook asking if I could stand in as he was delayed in Europe. Now, there's a theme for the night. I opened with a couple of mine, neither about leaving Europe, or maybe they were: 'Ghosts' and 'It's only my time'.
1000 Watts: Simon had set up the PA earlier in the day and despite my request for something political and controversial; he gave us a rock and roll ditty about Elvis and followed it with 'Beggars and Mules' by Danny Schmidt, who was a founder member on the Brit Funk movement in the late 70s. I never realised Simon was a funkster.
Flying High: it was good to see Geoff Jackson back at the Bells complete with his baritone ukulele. It's been about a year since his last visit and he's been keeping himself busy playing the care home circuit and getting paid for it. Songs: 'Come fly with me' and 'Fly me to the moon'.
Young Person Alert: Sam was a young man, cheered on by his family. They were all experiencing their first Folk & Blues Club Night. He gave us a couple of nice Paul Simon songs, 'The Only Living Boy in New York' and 'Diamonds on the soles of her shoes'. Mary Oddie had tucked herself out of site and was hard at work knitting a sock; as you do at folk clubs. On hearing Sam's voice, she rejoined the room and clearly enjoyed his set before returning to her illuminated sock production position.
She's got that sinking feeling: Ella was on her Bouzouki and started with Bob's, 'Make you feel my love' and concluded with a topical Lyle Lovett song, 'If I had a boat'.
Has anyone seen Roy and I don't mean Hodgson: Roy is one of our regular supporters; he can often be seen in the crowd amongst the old blokes and their acoustic guitars. And tonight for the first time he'd agreed to take a slot on the bill and play a bit of piano. When his time came, Simon was sent to search the building, but sadly, no Roy. Hopefully, we'll get him up at a future event to do his thing.
Mr Soundman: Clive was on desk duties and did a fine job adjusting the mics and sliding the sliders and twiddling the nobs. He was so good we let him play a couple of songs. 'John Barleycorn' was followed by 'My baby she wrote me a letter'. I don't know what she wrote about, maybe it was to do with foldback levels and reverb; Clive didn't say.
Two songs for a future England manager: Keith Willson complete with one of those arch top electric jazz guitars opened with 'Those pathetic little strategies' and kicked off the second half with 'Keep on pushing'.
A big Ovation (it's a guitar): Jason is becoming a regular and gave us two pretty songs in his very distinctive style. I think the opener was called 'Didi wah didi'. He then meandered off with a traditional song called 'Wandering'.
Irony alert - two songs from a Scotsman for England: John Oddie revisited a couple of his old favs: 'May you never lay your head down' and 'Roll on'.
Sitting with the boys: Lisa Jackson spent the evening in the dark corner by the fire exit with the old boys. She gave us her distinctive interpretation of the 17th century nursery rhyme, 'Lavender Blue' followed by a pretty Kris Kristofferson's, 'Loving arms again'.
Singing for the people: Chris Liddiard opened with 'Ain't sweet enough for me' and then hit us with a Union song, 'It's a hard hard road'.
New faces: Chris and Julia gave us 'Don't you grieve no more' in their traditional folk style, featuring banjo and fiddle. They finished with a cappella performance of 'Farewell to Tarwathie'.
Everyone had done their thing and as there was still a little time on the clock, I got John Oddie to join me for a breakneck speed version of my song, 'I like to be sad' which is about playing open mic nights.
And then, trying to find an inclusive way to close the evening that didn't involve six acoustic guitars playing a 12-bar, I asked as many of the performers who were still in the room and awake to join me and give us a verse each from 'House of the rising sun'. There was a little panic as the lyric sheet was passed around and the next vocalist tried to get on a mic and hit their mark. But, it was a good laugh and I think it worked quite well. Unity from division and all working in perfect (well nearly) harmony.
Whilst the team packed away the PA, John was giving us all reggae lessons, as it's Reggae Night with Mr O on Tuesday 2/07/16. Now, that's a challenge - I don't like reggae, no, I love it, but can I play it?
Disclaimer: None of the above political nonsense was true - it was just one madman's interpretation of an evening of good music at the Six Bells. x
Me and my bowler down at the Bells - by C J Martin
MC again and another Blog needed, what to write and how to make it entertaining. Well, a collection of boys and girls, yes there were quite a few girls this time, moseyed down to the Six Bells to give us some music. Everyone had a fab time. Thank you very much and goodnight. x
You want more! Ok, well, I put my MC's bowler hat on and launched the night with a couple of fine tunes from my new album, 'Standing Room Only' and despite some lovely BVs from Lisa, I failed to sell any copies of it on CD, but that's ok I'm not bitter and I still have my integrity.
Clive Woodman was 'Going up the Country' with Helga's flute and he sailed off back to the desk on the 'Grey Funnel Line.' We kept him busy for the rest of the night doing the sound - Thanks Clive.
There were two colours tonight, grey from Clive and blue from quite a few. Keith Willson with two Ls offered us 'Lifes you could have tried' and was the first blue, closing with 'Newcastle Blue', or was it blew, no it was definitely blue.
Ella was in piano mode tonight and played us a tune by Julia Robert's ex-hubby, Lyle Lovett called 'North Dakota.' Then it was over to 'Dani's all star joint' for a bit of up-tempo joanna. I'm patiently waiting for the wild Ella to break out and give us the full Jerry Lee Lewis feet on the piano treatment.
Jim hadn't been for a while, 1985 he said, but I think he was telling porkies. Opening with a bit of Steve Earle's 'My old friend the blues,' he segued into one of his own, 'Home is where the heart is' as a rallying call for Brexit or was it Weetabix, actually he'd written it for a couple of friends, one of whom came from Iceland and the other from Luxemburg. A united Europe then, oh, maybe not, is Iceland in Europe…
Helga had rushed to be with us having just collected a major award for her professional work. Smartly attired in a little black number and on classical guitar she sang a ditty by Wolf Biermann called 'Ermutigung', which is German for Take Heart. And then, joined by Lisa on lead guitar, Ella on bass and me on a slightly distorted guitar she marched through the Pete Seeger classic, 'Flowers in the rain' in German! But for some EU let's stick togetherness she did the last verse in English and we all joined in.
Chris L likes his Buddy Holly and opened with 'Learning the game,' and finished with one of his own, 'Fingers crossed.'
Simon had been in at lunch time and had set up the PA, so he gets some extra Brownie Points. He opened with a mellow version of Dylan's 'You ain't goin' nowhere.' This was followed by a Chris Mansellesk meandering ramble about tea and sandwiches, no, it wasn't a Leonard Cohen song, that was tea and oranges. Simon said he felt duty-bound to carry on the tradition and do a monologue. We used to bounce between Kepler and Geordieland and now we're being introduced to posh cucumber sandwiches. Anyway, eventually, he decided to play another tune, one of his own this time, 'I refused to sing the blues' - it's that colour again.
Lisa had already been busy with me and then Helga and finally got her own chance to shine and do her thing. A lovely version of Elvis's 'Don't be cruel' was followed by 'Sailing' as previously made famous by Sir Rod.
Michael, who is on promoter duties next time out at the Bells gave us a bit of 'Midnight special' before dipping into the mighty pantheon of old country songs, with a Jimmy Rogers number, 'Peach picking time.'
Jason was on fine form, regaling us with tales from the old days when he used to pogo to the Birthday Party. He followed this reminiscence with a very pretty version of Nick Cave's 'The ship song' - I wonder if it had a grey funnel? Moving along, he closed with one of his own, 'Simple smiling face' and we all smiled along.
Everyone had done their bit and there was still a little time on the clock, so I sat at the old Bells piano and played a song I'd written back in 1990, I never play the piano and must confess I felt rather nervous. Here's a link to a studio recording of the song from 1994: - Click Here
Paul had been in the house all evening with his full set of harmonicas and had not been invited to blow one - where's them old blues boys when you need them. Michael took centre stage for a closing blues fest house band, featuring Paul and harp in E, Helga and flute, Ella and an acoustic bass and Keith two Ls on lead guitar. And that my friends concluded another great night of folk and blues and other stuff at the Six Bells.
PA packed up and we were away before midnight, so I didn't have to let it all hang out. x
Simon & The Roadee
Yet another splendid Tuesday night at the Six Bells surrounded by a group of amiable musicians hoping to entertain and to be entertained. This evening we had the added interest of a mobile recording studio (The Roadee) so that anyone who wanted to could try their hand at recording. Some of us took up this challenge Neil, Dudley, Clive and myself. We all laid down some cool tracks. They might not make us famous but we all enjoyed the experience.
Meanwhile – back in the back bar things progressed in the normal way and I started the evening with St James Infirmary Blues accompanied by Helga on Flute. John followed with a couple of songs by John Hiatt. John Hiatt once recorded a song called "Since his penis came between us", sadly this was not on Mr Oddies playlist – maybe next time. Next was the turn of Ella with a nice version of "Black Waterside" by Bert Jansch followed by the Dylan classic "Spanish Boots".
It was then time for Chris Martin to sing us a couple of his own songs. Chris is a phenomenon; he creates videos that are both witty and surreal to accompany his songs - click Here , Here , Here and Here for examples. The amount of time and effort he puts into this deserves to be rewarded. Tonight's songs were "Xeroxed Army" and "Toast for one".
Mike then gave us his version of "Carolina" and the Neil Young song "I was thinking about you and me". Penny was next with another of the ad-hoc bands that she conjures up; tonight it was Neil on slide with Keith on Piano. The songs were "Trouble in mind" and "Story Monday".
Clive, before his visit to The Roadee, sang two songs the best of which, I thought, was "Time flows like a river". I popped into The Roadee as he was just finishing his session and the results of his recording sounded pretty impressive to me.
Dudley gave us the Leonard Cohen classics "Bird on the wire" and "Suzanne". It is hard to reach some of the low notes in these numbers but Dudley managed it with ease. We then had Neil with his Mum, Vanessa providing vocals on "Sweet Home Chicago", he then sang "Rambling on my mind". Both by the soulful Mississippi blues man Robert Johnson who died at the tender age of 27 after being poisoned by a jealous boyfriend; this is what comes of selling your soul to the devil.
Helga then got together with John for "Knockin on heavens door" and with Chris Martin for "Sanity", another of Chris's songs (all good collaborative stuff). Keith provided us with two songs of which I particularly liked "The slow one", the other was "Don't look down"; both were his own creation. He was followed by Chris Liddiard who also sung two of his own songs "No more war" and "Peace loving nation". I am not going to say very much about Chris, all you need to know is here.
Jason, who it was nice to see again at The Six Bells finished the evening with the 60's gay anthem "Handbags and gladrags" which was, he explained, was written by Mike D'arbo, the lead singer from Manfred Mann. This was followed by "The blues is a country".
I would like to thank John for helping me set-up the PA, Ella for providing the pictures and Phil & Tom from The Roadee for offering us the opportunity to record. Thanks also to our outnumbered audience for simply being there. If you have read all the way to this point – be sensible, seek treatment urgently!
All the best - Simon


AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) - Patrick Reed is leading a major championship for the first time, and his confidence is so high that he can only see what's ahead of him.
Maybe that's just as well at this Masters.
Reed started and finished the front nine with three straight birdies. He answered Marc Leishman's bold shot for an eagle by polishing off another run of three straight birdies. It added to a 6-under 66 and a two-shot lead over Leishman going into the weekend at Augusta National.
"Everyone wants to win, and if you don't believe you can win them, then you probably shouldn't be playing in them," Reed said. "I believe that if I play the golf that I know how to play that I can win majors. ... There's a lot of holes left, and I just need to go out and keep to my game plan, play some solid golf and just go out and continue shooting in the 60s and see if it gets the job done."
Woods and Mickelson probably don't.
Woods hit one shot into a cluster of magnolia trees and another into Rae's Creek. He didn't make a birdie until the 13th hole and had to settle for a 3-over 75, leaving him 13 shots behind. No one has ever won the Masters when trailing by more than eight shots going into the weekend.
Mickelson smacked a shot into the trees trying to escape a forest and made triple bogey, deposited a tee shot into Rae's Creek on No. 12 for a double bogey and shot a 79, matching his worst score at Augusta National. He started the day four shots out of the lead. He ended the day making the cut on the number.
"Going to treat it just like another day, go out and try to do what I've been doing and stick to my game plan and try to make some more birdies," Reed said.
"I meant to hook it 30 yards, and I put 40 yards of hook on it," Leishman said with a smile.
"We're not here to lay up," Leishman said. "It's a major. You're going to have to take some chances at some point during the week if you want to win, and that was a time where I thought I had to take a chance. I've been hitting that shot well on the range and I thought it was a prime opportunity to give it a test. And it came off."
"I've always been comfortable around the lead," McIlroy said. "It's a place that I'm thankfully quite familiar with and know how to deal with."
Spieth was happy to be near the top after the way he started - a tee shot into the trees on the right and a three putts for a double bogey, and then a drive to the left and three more putts for a bogey. Just like that he was behind, and it kept getting worse. He made bogey from the middle of the fairway on No. 7. He three-putted from long range on the par-5 eighth. And he was headed for a 41 on the front nine until he made a 10-foot par putt.
"I was hoping to keep it within 10. I didn't know what my position was, but I think I'm in," he said after his round.

Biografia
Fung iniziò a praticare la ginnastica ritmica all'età di 13 anni, diventando per la prima volta campionessa canadese nel 1982 all'età di 19 anni. Due anni dopo si presentò alle Olimpiadi di Los Angeles 1984 e, approfittando del boicottaggio dell'Unione Sovietica e di altri Paesi dell'Est Europa come la Bulgaria, che erano tra le principali favorite in questa disciplina, riuscì a diventare la prima campionessa olimpica di ritmica vincendo il concorso individuale. Successivamente si piazzò nona ai Mondiali di Valladolid 1985 e tentò poi di guadagnarsi l'accesso alle Olimpiadi di Seul 1988; non riuscendo però a riprendersi completamente dai postumi di una precedente appendicite, a cui si sommarono altri malesseri fisici, nel 1988 dovette annunciare il suo ritiro dall'attività agonistica.

Dopo il suo ritiro Lori Fung iniziò l'attività di allenatrice. Nel 2004 è stata introdotta nella Canada's Sports Hall of Fame. Lo stesso anno appare pure nel film Catwoman interpretando il ruolo di una ballerina aerea.

While cleaning out an overgrown yard I found this lizard that had burried itself deep in debris. I've never seen a lizard of this size in my area before. I wondered what species it is?
Thank you for your question. Your photo is somewhat out of focus when I try to enlarge it and the gloved hand is covering up areas that would be useful in making an identification, but I believe this is a Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea). This species has a distinct fold of skin on each side of its body that separates the keeled dorsal (back and sides) scales from the smooth ventral (stomach) scales, but I can't see if this is present due to the position of the lizard and the gloved hand. There is a Northern and Southern Alligator lizard, and you say this one was caught in northwestern Washington, and the southern species range does not extend to the northwestern part of the state.
This species is reportedly found in grassy, brushy or rocky open areas within forested areas. When handled this species can easily shed its tail, and it appears from your photograph that this individual has lost its tail at one time.
They feed on insects, ticks, spiders, millipedes and snails.
Hope this answers your question, and thanks for using Ask an Expert.

Meals on Wheels. Teacher training, after-school, and summer educational programs. The National Endowment for the Arts. The Appalachian Regional Commission. The National Institutes of Health (NIH). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
All these initiatives and agencies — plus many more — face cuts or wholesale elimination under President Donald Trump's proposed "skinny budget", officially unveiled on March 16.
Meanwhile, the blueprint calls for increases in military spending, border and immigration enforcement, and money for charter and private schools.
Senator Bernie Sanders called the budget "morally obscene and bad economic policy".
Diane Yentel, head of the National Low-Income Housing Coalition, warned Trump's budget "would have a devastating impact on millions of the lowest income people across the country".
As the budget axes critical environment, public health, and science programs — including with a 31%t cut to the EPA — it "feeds the fossil fuel industry", Oil Change International policy director Janet Redman said on March 16, pointing to the continuation of huge subsidies for oil, gas, and coal companies.
Politico reported: "As proposed, the Trump budget almost certainly will not pass Congress. Too many lawmakers, including many Republicans, have declared it dead on arrival.


It's never a dull moment with South African socialite Somizi Mhlongo. The outspoken Somgaga as his fans calls him has just declared that he has an undying crush on our very own first citizen, President Ian Khama.
"Botswana president can speak for 10 hours straight without me moving an inch. His accent and tone my gaaard. Obama has nothing on him, he posted on Twitter. He says he gets all gaga when HE speaks both languages, but prefers listening to him speaking English the most. Our President is single and he is bound to get all sorts of attention.
As it is the case with Twitter, people are commenting all left, right and center on the post. One had this to say, "OK, so you just woke up and first thing you thought about was coffee and rusks in bed and our President?" You know you are always welcome in our shores Mr Mhlongo. Talk about a twisted WCW.


I absolutely love Zendaya's style. It's unpredictable in the most satisfying way ever. From her hair to her wardrobe, Zendaya is the little sister I always wanted! I'd love to play "dress-up" with her just once! I love how tasteful her style is while trying new things and being an absolute show stopper. If you ask me, she already a style icon - 20 years old and undoubtedly killing the game. Yes Zendaya!

A script that helps to manage virtual hosts on Mac OS X _(it may also run on other unix based systems with some or no changes)_.

The Idea is to keep the changes on the existing config as little as possible.

## Install

### Homebrew (recommended)
1. Install: ```brew tap alxndrhi/miscbrew && brew install vhm```
2. Tell apache where to find the configuration: ```sudo echo "Include /usr/local/etc/vhm/httpd-vhosts.conf" >> /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf```
3. Check the vhm Configuration in: ```/usr/local/etc/vhm/vhm.cfg```

### Manual
1. create _sites-available_ folder: ```mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/vhm/sites-available```
2. create _sites-enabled_ folder: ```mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/vhm/sites-enabled```
3. create _templates_ folder: ```mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/vhm/templates```
4. Download Release from [releases page](https://github.com/alxndrhi/vhm/releases) untar / unzip it
5. symlink vhm: ```ln -s WHEREVER-YOU-PUT-THE-FILES/vhm /usr/local/bin/vhm```
6. copy config: ```cp WHEREVER-YOU-PUT-THE-FILES/vhm.cfg /usr/local/etc/vhm/vhm.cfg``` _(don't forget to edit the config)_
7. copy template ```cp WHEREVER-YOU-PUT-THE-FILES/VirtualHost.conf /usr/local/etc/vhm/templates/```
7. copy apache config file ```cp WHEREVER-YOU-PUT-THE-FILES/httpd-vhosts.conf /usr/local/etc/vhm/```
8. Tell apache where to find the configuration: ```sudo echo "Include /usr/local/etc/vhm/httpd-vhosts.conf >> /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf```

## Using vhm
To create a host, you have to go into the root folder of the new host and run ```vhm -d domain-name cr```.

### examples
Ok, lets say we want to create the development domain _testing.dev_ with the "DocumentRoot" in ~/Sites/testing.dev/,
and as we are already here, we also want to enable it and restart apache.

```
mkdir -p ~/Sites/testing.dev
cd ~/Sites/testing.dev
vhm -d testing.dev cr en --apache-restart
```

You can use your custom template file or an alternative template file by using the --template parameter.

```
mkdir -p ~/Sites/testing.dev
cd ~/Sites/testing.dev
vhm -d testing.dev cr en --template MyTemplateFileName.conf --apache-restart
```

To delete, disable or enable an existing VirtualHost you dont have to ```cd``` into the "DocumentRoot". Just use the --domain parameter:

```
vhm -d testing.dev --enable
vhm -d testing.dev --disable
vhm -d testing.dev --delete
```
See a list of Domains including Status:

```
vhm -l
```

For a full list of parameters see ```vhm --help```

### Template files
You can create your own template files. Just put them in ```/usr/local/etc/vhm/templates```.

**Info**
* After creating a new _VirtualHost_ you have to enable it.
* Remember to restart apache after every change to the configuration.
* If apache don't start just run ```apachectl``` without any parameter to see the error message.
* Delete will remove the VirtualHost config file and the symlink from ```/etc/apache2/sites-enabled``` and ```/etc/apache2/sites-available```. This will **not** remove any of your project files.


The lot has happened this year, where to start? This summer we finally got serious with the merchandising and started a new line of t-shirts. We did some silk screen t-shirts and some embroidered that we sold to the K'san up in Hazelton. Honestly the small embroidered Medeek shirts are my favorite, I guess I like to have subtle uses of the artwork. I also attended a couple of festivals this year and sold both prints and shirts at my little booth, that was fun. Met a lot of neat people and it was good exposure. Interestingly we also found our t-shirt model that way as well, crazy how things work out.
It has been a long time coming but I finally got a new print out after having a bit of a drought for well over a year. We printed the Wasco in October. Not sure on its reception just yet but we are hopefull it does well even in this rough economy. We printed it in three different color combinations with fairly low edition numbers. I don't think the tri-color print will be around for long, that one is my favorite, the coloring came out amazing, thank Cindy and Rory for making it happen.
We also began to place more product with the native casinos here in Washington, we still have alot of work to do on that end but we have definetly opened some doors. Suquamish and Muckleshoot Casino both display both my prints and t-shirts.
This year has been a good year for us. Things were a little slower than this year due to the economy and the high gas prices during the summer months but overall I think we have accomplished alot. We are looking forward to an even more productive year for 2009. Our many thanks to our patrons, galleries, shops and all those who support and love the art of the northwest coast. Thank-you.

Fellow Astraea Press author, Samantha Combs, is sharing an excerpt of her newest book, Waterdancer.
As if high school isn't hard enough, try being Bailey Wasserman. Try being the new girl in town, navigating a touchy relationship with your flighty mom's rich new husband in a brand new town he's just moved you to. Add to that finding out that your father, a semi-pro surfer who's just mysteriously re-entered your life after nearly fifteen years of silence, is half sea-creature and you're about to inherit that particular gene on your sixteenth birthday which is only a few days away, all after you just met the cutest surfer boy you've ever seen in your life.
Bailey feels she and her mom have always met life's challenges as a team of two, more like best friends than mother and daughter. But her mom's recent marriage has changed all that. Having her little brother Landry is all Bailey can find good about that union. The move to wealthy Del Mar from their humble beginnings has turned Bailey sour, until a chance meeting of surf hottie Jack West changes all that. Then, when her father reenters her life, with his annoying Zen-surfer lingo and a talking turtle he claims is her spirit guardian, no less, he threatens the only relationship Bailey thinks is working in her world. She soon finds out that's not all his arrival will do. His presence and their shared family trait could ultimately force Bailey to make a decision that will alter the course of her own life and those she loves…..forever.
My mom dropped me at the edge of the high school driveway.
"Honey, are you sure you don't want me to go in with you?" I glanced out the window of my mom's car. Already we were attracting more attention than I wanted. Why did my mom have to park right in front of the school, not at the edge of the parking lot, like I'd begged her to? Wasn't it bad enough that she had married Warren in the first place and plunked me down in the middle of this alien nation like Valentine Smith in Stranger In A Strange Land? It was true, my mom, the former Sharona Wasserman couldn't wait to become Mrs. Warren Meyers. But I'd failed to consider the consequences of her marriage at the time. If I had, I would have realized at some point that a man that made as much money as Warren would never want to live in our simple three-bedroom house in Otay Mesa, three miles from the border and a hundred miles from the world he was used to living in. No, the first chance he got, he whisked us away to Del Mar, the most beautiful city I'd ever seen. I'd learned to love it. It was perfect all summer long and I went to the beach every day and sometimes didn't come back to the gorgeous rented condo full of the brand new furniture till well past nightfall. Then, we all went to restaurants or had take out, 'cuz Mom hardly cooked anymore, but I had never seen her so happy. I had to admit, my brother seemed pretty happy too. I could fake my own happiness where appropriate. It didn't really matter that Warren didn't seem to like me so much. He loved my mom and that was all that mattered, wasn't it?

ASUU's N92bn demand not realizable – says FG
THE Federal Government on Tuesday said it cannot afford to pay the N92bn financial demand by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Minister of Finance, who stated this at the opening of a two-day meeting of Commissioners of Finance and Accountants-General of states, with the theme, 'Restructuring Nigeria's Finances,' said the country was still suffering from the effect of the 2010 increase in salary; hence it cannot meet the current N92bn being demanded by the university lecturers.
Her words "At present, ASUU wants the Federal Government to pay N92bn in extra allowances, when the resources are not there, and when we are working to integrate past increases in pensions. We need to make choices in this country as we are getting to the stage where recurrent expenditures take the bulk of our resources and people get paid but can do no work.
"Since I assumed office, the share of recurrent expenditure in our total budgets had increased astronomically. In fact, recurrent expenditure accounted for about 77.2 per cent of the federal budget and we are now working to re-balance this ratio."
She continued: "The country is still suffering from the effect of the 2010 increase in salary. Do we want to get to a stage in this country that all the money we earn is used to pay salaries and allowances?"
"If the demands of the university lecturers are met and we continue to pay them salaries and allowances, we will not be able to provide infrastructure in the universities."
The minister, who bemoaned over-dependence of both local governments and the state government on the federal government allocations, said that non-oil taxes accounted for 74 per cent of Nigeria's Government revenues in 1970 but by 2012, it had declined to only 30 per cent.

ASUU should call off the strike for the sake of the poor masses and not because of the Federal government because they are not ready to reach an agreement as it is not affecting them. Their children and wards are somewhere in Europe Schooling,make we wey no get money to go Europe suffer. I dont know why our leaders love seeing us suffering.

The Federal govt should try and meet their demand, if not all atleast a little to serve as incentive for them to work.


Just how good are the windshield wipers on your car? Do they do the job they were designed to do? Winter takes a heavy toll on wiper blades and so does the searing sun of summer.
Surprisingly, more than 1 in 5 US motorists, knowing that the windshield wipers on their car are not functioning as they should, do nothing about it, according to a nationwide survey by Anco, a major windshield-wiper manufacturer.
Of the nearly 4,000 motorists who responded to the questionnaire, nearly 46 percent said they had endured times when the wipers were not cleaning the windshield satisfactorily.
Aware of the problem, 22 percent said they did nothing while 14 percent cleaned the wipers. Sixty-one percent, however, replaced them.
Of major importance to 20 percent of those in the survey was the ability to see clearly out of the windshield, including clear glass and properly operating wipers, washers, and defrosters.

Enraged Dad 'Went to the Kitchen to Grab a Butcher Knife' to Kill the Man Who Allegedly Molested His Son. Then He Heard the Only Thing That Could've Stopped Him.
"I went to the kitchen to grab a butcher knife..."

The father who left his son's alleged abuser lying unconscious in a "bloody pool" said in an interview published Monday that the only reason he didn't kill the man was because his 11-year-old asked him to stop.
"My immediate feeling was to kill him, so he will never hurt anyone again," the father told WESH-TV.
[sharequote align="center"]"My immediate feeling was to kill him, so he will never hurt anyone again."[/sharequote]
That's when he went to grab a weapon.
"My son saved Raymond. Raymond was motionless on our floor. I went to the kitchen to grab a butcher knife and my son stopped me. My son came in front of me and saved his attacker's life," the father told the local NBC affiliate.

The dad, who has remained unidentified to protect the child's identity, made national headlines late last week after he severely beat the alleged child abuser when he "walked in on [the] grown man molesting" his 11-year-old son.
"I just walked in on a grown man molesting—," the 35-year-old unidentified father told a 911 dispatcher. "And I got him in a bloody puddle for you officer."
Asked by the dispatcher if he had used any weapons, the father responded, "My foot and my fist."
"I didn't proceed to ask him any questions sir," he said. "He is nice and knocked out on the floor for you. I drug him out to the living room."
"He stood up and his pants were around his ankles and nothing else needed to be said," the father added to the dispatcher. "I did whatever I got a right to do except I didn't kill him."
The father then advised the dispatcher to deploy paramedics.
"Send an ambulance. He is going to need one," he said.
Police responded to the scene at about 1:00 a.m. and found Raymond Frolander, 18, motionless on the floor, bleeding profusely from his mouth, the arrest report stated.
Daytona Beach police chief Mike Chitwood said at the time that the father was not charged with a crime.
"Dad was acting like a dad. I don't see anything we should charge the dad with," Chitwood said. "You have an 18-year-old who has clearly picked his target, groomed his target and had sex with the victim multiple times."

Black Church Food Security Network helps…

Carolyn Cavaness, pastor of Bethel AME Church Ardmore, holds a bag of food that was to be given to people in need.
LOWER MERION – In 2018, members of Bethel AME Church in Ardmore decided to put a small plot of land next to their historic church to good use. They'd grow fresh, healthy vegetables.
Over time, that garden idea has expanded to help inspire and empower others in the community to learn to grow some of their own food at home by placing gardens in front yards, side yards, backyards – wherever there might be space.
Through their garden experiences and due to outside factors, they've learned something over the past couple of years. The current food system has problems.
"The pandemic has really emphasized just how dysfunctional our food system is," said Reverend Carolyn Cavaness, pastor of Bethel AME Church in Ardmore.
The longtime expression that says "you are what you eat" could have an added addendum of, "you eat what you have access to." And if that food people have access to isn't always the healthiest to eat, it can cause health concerns.
"That has added a commitment for us to empower people of color to take the power in controlling their food source – how do you grow your own food and how do we support black and brown farmers."
This past week, Bethel teamed up with pastor Heber Brown III, founder and executive director of the Black Church Food Security Network, a national organization based out of Baltimore, Md., to help bring freshly grown food to those in need.
Brown's organization purchases vegetables from black farmers and then distributes it through a network of African American churches, such as Bethel, who then help get it to the people who need it.
"We are co-creating local food systems that center small farmers and center the assets and strength of local churches," Brown said as he made his first delivery to Bethel this weekend. "Our particular focus is on African American churches because of the disproportionate rates of food insecurity, health challenges and disparities in the African American community. And so, we feel like when you put African American churches and farmers together, it helps to get that much closer to a solution to some of those challenges."
Brown's organization purchases the food from small farmers. The food he brought up this week came from places such as King and Queen County, Va.; Warfield, Va.; Beckenham, South Carolina and others.
Once the food arrives in Ardmore, Bethel AME and its small army of volunteers packs up the food into what they are calling power bags. The food is then distributed to people who signed up for the program. Most were from the local area and a few people were from West Philadelphia.
Brown said not only does the program help get food to those in need, but it also helps small farmers.
"These are small farmers, many of them don't have big contracts at the big stores, they're not in the government program for food distributions, and so we create the avenues for them to earn a living based on the delicious food that they grow and connect them with the churches – this is a niche market made just for them," Brown said.
Brown's own church began a garden as part of an Earth Day event in 2010 for many of the same reasons Cavaness started the garden at Bethel.
"As a pastor, I would see members of my church be hospitalized repeatedly for diet-related issues," Brown said. "And to be frank, I got tired of just praying for them and hoping that they made it. I wanted to do something in addition to prayer, and so the idea came, let's grow food on the land that we have on our church."
So, once he saw the benefits of having a garden with fresh produce at his church, he began thinking about how it could be scaled upwards to make it larger and then network different churches together. This weekend was his first trip to deliver food in the Philadelphia area. Over time, he hopes to connect with other churches throughout the area.
About 1,500 to 2,000 pounds of produce and goods were brought up to Ardmore on Saturday to fill about 200 grocery bags full of food.
"I love it," Brown said about getting food to people who need it. "You can't read the bible and not bump into many stories about food. Many of the miracles we celebrate in scriptures are miracles where food is somewhere in the pitcher – or wine, Jesus's first miracle was transforming water into wine or taking a little boy's lunch and feeding 5,000. Food is sacred, and it's always been sacred, scripturally."
For Cavaness, working with Brown and his connection with farmers is also important.
"You are looking at a plate that has been grown and supplied by generations of black and brown farmers," Cavaness said.
With his first trip delivering food to the area, Brown said he wants to be back.
"I would just continue to invite more churches, synagogues and mosques and other faith-based organizations to dream big about how their current assets can be utilized for a greater public good," Brown said.

I want to send a big thanks to Looney Labs for sending us tons of stuff! Our gamers won't be able to repel Fluxx power of that magnitude!
I want to particularly highlight Fluxx: The Board Game! It's more strategic than the original card game and delivers everything you'd expect from a name like Fluxx: The Board Game. The ever-shifting landscape is made of tiles that can be rotated or uprooted elsewhere on the table. Occupy the right tile spaces to claim the current goal and reveal the next goal… getting you one step closer to victory!
My family, and in particular my wife and I enjoy sitting down to either the original Fluxx (still have the original box too!) or her favorite, Oz Fluxx – it's a fast game with ever changing rules and most importantly, it's fun!

Q: PySpark / Python / UserDefinedFunction / Redshift - Help required in ensuring an efficient query plan is used when using a UDF. I have a quick question about the UserDefinedFunctions (udf) and the withColumn function to extend an extra column onto an existing SQL Data Frame.
For reference, I am querying data from RedShift.
If I use native JVM functions, for example pyspark.sql.functions.lower (which calls: org.apache.spark.sql.functions.lower) the query that gets produced is clever to work out which columns to grab from the database.
(
    sql_context
    .read
    .format('com.databricks.spark.redshift')
    .option('url', URL)
    .option('dbtable', 'events')
    ...
    .withColumn('abc_lower', lower('abc'))
    ...
)

# The query is:
('SELECT "abc" FROM events)

When I define my own function it is not so clever and grabs the whole table.
def foo_bar(abc):
    return abc[:-2]

foobar_udf = udf(foo_bar, StringType())

(
    sql_context
    .read
    .format('com.databricks.spark.redshift')
    .option('url', URL)
    .option('dbtable', 'events')
    ...
    .withColumn('abc_lower', foobar_udf('abc'))
    ...
)

# The query is:
('SELECT "abc", "and", "every", "other", "column", "..." FROM events)

Any help on how I can stop it from doing this?
My one work around is to do a select before the withColumn, but I'd rather that Spark can work out which columns I need rather than having to say:
(
    sql_context
    .read
    .format('com.databricks.spark.redshift')
    .option('url', URL)
    .option('dbtable', 'events')
    ...
    .select(
        'abc',
        'other',
        'columns',
        'i',
        'want'
    )
    .withColumn('abc_lower', foobar_udf('abc'))
    ...
)
# The query is:
('SELECT "abc", "other", "columns", "i", "want" FROM events)

Thanks for any input!


Who should read it: Adsense does not support SSL, if you have same site running with http and HTTPS and you want Adsense on it then this article is certainly for you.
Recently we enabled Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for one of our sites. How does SSL helps? It encrypts the communication, between the client (the browser) and the web server. It helps in stopping Eavesdropping and your customers feel more secure about it due to the perception they have for the lock. This is just a security for the transport layer.
Even after completing everything the browser kept issuing a warning that the page contains some non-encrypted items. After some investigation we saw that the HTTPS pages were having some items with http, like images added with http. We made all the images relative that all the images can come with HTTPS under HTTPS. We changed all the js included path and made it relative.
The problem remained due to Google Adsense and Google Analytics. I searched web to find a solution for it. I got a big "No" from Google Adsense Help pages.
Do you offer an SSL version of your ad code?
Although you may place the Adsense ad code on a page using Secure Socket Layers, we do not currently offer an https version of the Adsense ad code at this time. Therefore, you may see a message asking for confirmation to load all items on the page when placing the Adsense ad code on secure https pages.
To make it dynamic and based on the port number (port number 443 whereas http works at 80) we could switch off the Adsense. It will make the pages slow which was again unaccepted.
To have two pages, one for http and another for https. Management problem which was the rejected.
More details are available at Google help pages. There is no way you can make you Adsense work with Https, so only way is to switch it off with https.
I tried your code to turn AdSense off when entering https pages but I just get a "This website cannot be found error. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?


The White House announced after Friday's talks that Trump would hold a second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in late February but will maintain economic sanctions on Pyongyang.
"That was an incredible meeting," Trump told reporters of the talks.
"We've agreed to meet sometime, probably the end of February. We've picked a country but we'll be announcing it in the future. Kim Jong Un is looking very forward to it and so am I. We've made a lot of progress that has not been reported by the media, he said.
Despite his upbeat comments there has been no indication of any narrowing of differences over US demands that North Korea abandon a nuclear weapons programme that threatens the United States and Pyongyang's demands for a lifting of punishing sanctions.
The first summit produced a vague commitment by Kim Jong Un to work towards the denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula, but he has yet to take what Washington sees as concrete steps in that direction. Trump did not elaborate on the country chosen to host the summit, but Vietnam has been considered a leading candidate.
Hope he is right. His flights of fancy are legendary. The CIA have publicly disagreed with Trump's analysis.
Mr Trump wants North Korea abandon its nuclear arsenal and Kim Joung Un wants first, lifting of the sunctions. Nobody ready to back out,so where is way forwards.Hoping a peaceful patchup of the two nuclear powers cause one, has already tested the nuclear fission & fussion on live ppl of Hiroshima & Nagasaki in WW II.

A police department in Maryland on Friday night tweeted an explicit and graphic video of one of its officers shooting and killing a Black man from earlier in the week. The Montgomery County Police Department identified Sgt. David Cohen as the officer who fatally shot Finan H. Berhe and it released a 30-second video of the shooting recorded from bodycam.
It was the second widely reported instance of a white police officer shooting and killing a young Black man in the past three days.
On the video, Cohen can be seen in a squad car putting on a protective mask before exiting and encountering Berhe. Cohen instantly draws his gun, aims it at Berhe and yells, "Put the knife down!" Cohen then uses the radio to report in part that he had "one with a knife." Berhe retreats but ultimately charges are Cohen, prompting the officer to fire multiple shots at Berhe, who was later taken to a hospital and died from the gunshot wounds.
The video did appear to show Berhe with a knife, but it's unclear if its standard police protocol to shoot to kill in such an instance or use nonlethal force when a suspect is not armed with a gun. Cohen was placed on paid administrative leave and the Montgomery County Police Department said the "incident in its entirety remains under investigation by the Major Crimes Division."

Berhe's shooting death came one night after police in Indianapolis shot and killed Sean Reed, a 21-year-old Black man who live-streamed the shooting on his Facebook page. In that instance, Reed was running away from the police instead of toward them as seen in the video from Maryland.
At least one person wondered on Twitter why the Montgomery County Police Department would openly post such an explicit video that was embedded in the tweet for anyone to see just casually scrolling down their timelines. While transparency from police is always called for, rarely do police departments voluntarily offer bodycam footage so quickly after an incident (unless it believes there is nothing to hide.)
Coincidentally, the Montgomery County Police Department has a history of questionable behavior toward Black people. In July, then-Acting Montgomery County Police Chief Marcus Jones gave a lackluster apology after bodycam footage showed his officers calling suspects the N-word. In 2018, Robert Lawrence White, a 41-year-old unarmed Black man, was fatally shot in Silver Spring, setting off national outrage as activists demanded justice and called the killing "murder" and "unjust."

No cover extensions at Williamsport pay stations

The Williamsport Parking Authority decided Wednesday it won't pay for extensions on its overhead plastic coverings at the automatic pay meter stations.
Authority members Dr. Tony Cipolla, chairman; Rose Choate, Jared Kinley and Marc Schefsky reached a consensus that it was not worth spending an estimated $550 per cover to extend the material another foot.
The decision came after the authority received complaints about the covers not being long enough to protect individuals standing in line from the rain or inclement weather.
Similar pay stations in Harrisburg, for example, do not have such covering, said William E. Nichols Jr., city finance director and general manager of River Valley Transit. The transit service provides financial management for the authority.
The authority also tried to ease the minds of people concerned about receiving a ticket for parking vehicles on the sidewalk on narrow State Street.
People using the James V. Brown Library and stopping for a bite to eat at a nearby restaurant complained the street is basically the size of an alley.
Among those advocating for individuals wanting, or needing, to use the street to park was Councilwoman Liz Miele.
The authority discussed it briefly and decided by consensus it believed vehicles parking on the narrow street should be able to use the sidewalk to park part of their vehicle on.
It would not make sense to reduce the size of the sidewalk, which must remain 42 inches wide to comply with handicapped accessibility regulations in the Americans With Disabilities Act, Schefsky said.
The issue might be revisited once work begins on the Willow Street greenway, Cipolla said.
Willow Street is to be converted for possible pedestrian and bicyclists use and be used as a connector to downtown and the Susquehanna River Walk and other bicycle routes.
The authority was informed that incidents of mischief occurred during July 4 at the roof of the Third Street parking garage.
Some "hoodlums" were tossing items off the roof and a plastic bottle with liquid nearly hit a baby in a carriage below, according to the authority discussion. Members then turned the talk toward possibly putting in additional security cameras.
