President Buhari Approves Re-Appointment of Servicom National Coordinator
May 2, 2021 /in News /by servicom
President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the re-appointment of Nnenna Akajemeli as National Coordinator and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of SERVICOM for a second term of four years with effect from April 10, 2021.
The Permanent Secretary, State House, Mr Tijjani Umar, disclosed this at the presentation of the Revised State House Service Delivery Charter on Friday in Abuja.
The Permanent Secretary congratulated the National Coordinator on her well-deserved re-appointment, saying, ''she is a very hardworking person and who I have worked very closely with and she is very passionate in everything she does.''
He also used the occasion of the presentation of the revised Service Charter to encourage public servants to put service delivery first and ''not to be in a hurry to acquire material benefits.''
''For people who are in a hurry to make money, the public service is not about making money.
''I usually advise colleagues, particularly the younger generation, not to be in a hurry for anything but to work hard and the reward will meet you where you are,'' he said.
On State House Clinic, the Permanent Secretary told the meeting that the Clinic has become fully self-sufficient, commending medical workers for the visibly improved service delivery.
''The new Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) wing has been completed and fully functional. State House Clinic was designated as a vaccination centre for COVID-19 and we have finalised arrangements for the Clinic to serve as a testing centre for COVID-19.
''As a result of the pandemic, we built a Special Care Centre within 10 weeks and we also have a fully kitted functional Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on wheels and procured new vehicles.
''We have also streamlined the process of the procurement and distribution of drugs to ensure accountability, and have deployed the use of ICT to improve our services in the Clinic.
''Our Clinic may not be perfect but we are on the path to perfection,'' he said.
In her remarks, the National Coordinator of SERVICOM described her reappointment as a call to do more in terms of improving service delivery in Nigeria.
''We are working towards getting an Act to further drive and institutionalise service improvement in the country and we are also working towards a functional new national policy on SERVICOM to enhance trust and connectedness between the government and the citizenry,'' she said.
Working with the Open Government Partnership (OGP), Akajemeli hinted that SERVICOM had plans to expand its frontiers to the States and local governments to improve the essence of governance.

Annies' Millions - New HO Game!!!
Re:Annies' Millions - New HO Game!!!
It's Free!!!!!!! What's not to like.
Went looking for this game - found on gamehouse - yet found something else there - easter gift game 1 if find the easter egg.
I finished the demo yesterday and loved it. I'd buy it if it came to .
Just played it on Gateway Games BFG please get this game, it's so much fun!!!!
I guess I'm the only one whose opinion is that this is the WORST HOG I ever played, didn't even finish the full version, as I progressed on this shopping trip (which started out fun) it became impossible except a random click exercise. OK we are in a cosmetic boutique and supposed to find like lotion, or face cream but staring at shelves full of jars and bottles, containers, so small one can hardly tell difference in shapes or any visual clue what is in them. Same in art supply shop, how are we to know which liquid is in which bottle out of maybe 50. Ridiculous. And if trying to spend a million $ what are we doing picking up junk, furniture she needs and we buy a wood banana for $5. I guess in the end she would have to buy a million dollar home to put all this useless tasteless carp in. Or start a thrift shop? Or give it all to charity? I wouldn't know, I left unfinished going blind to find a real HOG to find objects, not a random click guessing game. Maybe if you finished it you can tell me what was enjoyable about it.
I agree with you puzzle...Really didn't care for the game at all.
Re:Annies' Millions - New **** Game!!!
didn't see a timer. clicking on the hat/pink ribbon in the what looks like the walmart and doesn't work can not move forward. any ideas?
ok I'm really confused wasn't this game released in Feburary 2009? I searched the forums because I remember this game and it was released in 2009?
Yes Irishmist, this game is over a year old . I played it free with ads on another site a couple of months ago. Not worth a credit in my opinion.
I like it, its a cute game.
HELP - Anyone find the dolphin in the Pottery Barn scene?
Since we now have a full game forum for Annie's Millions, I've gone ahead and moved this thread over just to keep Chit-Chat nice and tidy.

We want to help our patients live their lives to the fullest, and thanks to Distractify, we've been able to assemble a list of 20 things you can do now to make sure life's a little better by the time you turn 50.
Someone interviewed several 50+ year olds about the things they wished they had done in their younger years. Their answers are not only wise, but in most cases, simple. If you've recently had a big birthday, check out this list!
Don't smoke. And if you already do, stop immediately. It's expensive, smells terrible, and is guaranteed to cause health problems. STOP.
Eat well. Give up fast food. Fuel your body with whole foods that will fuel your health for decades to come.
Stay close (or get close) with parents and siblings. Even if you don't see eye to eye on certain issues, family will see you through thick and thin. Invest in yours.
Wear sunscreen. You don't want wrinkles, sun damaged skin, or possibly skin cancer. Put on that sunscreen before heading outside – your skin will thank you.
Exercise regularly. Get up and get moving – the truth of the matter is that being overweight creates all sorts of health issues for your body – combat weight gain and boost endorphins with a regular exercise routine.
Save money! Save early, and save often, so that when you're in your 50s you're not sweating over your retirement fund.
Be content in all circumstances. Be happy with what you have – things do not make you happy – you choose to be happy.
Go after your goals. Want to buy a house? Have kids? Start your own business? Run a marathon? Then do it! Don't put off your goals, go after them.
Catch some zzzz's. Sleep resets your body, restores your energy, and rejuvenates your mind. Make getting at least 8 hours of sleep each night a priority.
Take care of your teeth. Actually show up for your dentist appointments. Brush your teeth 2x a day. FLOSS. By doing these things you'll avoid future painful and expensive dental procedures!
Choose memories over possessions. Don't wake up one morning in your 50s and realize you spent your life collecting things instead of making memories.
Give back. Whether you give back money or time, invest in something your heart cares about, and expect nothing for it in return.
Be brave. Attempt one thing every day that scares you. Ask your boss for that raise. Stand up to your mother-in-law. Try doing a handstand. Whatever it is, look fear in the face and squash it.
Read! Exercise your brain by reading at least 10 books a year – real books – not books on your eReader – nothing beats the feeling of turning a real page.
Travel. Whenever you can, wherever you can, travel. See anyone and everyone and anything and everything. Travel makes for amazing experiences you'll be so glad you soaked up!
Mediate and relax. Taking a small amount of time each day to relax and focus on the positive things in your life is good for the body and soul.
Find out who you are. Start figuring out who you are right now so that when you reach your 50s you're not only confident in yourself, but are able to truly love yourself and enjoy life, weird quirks and all!
Keep a journal. By writing down all your memories – good and bad – you'll have a written account of what truly mattered to you in your life and what life events shaped you into the person you are today.
Buy a house. If you buy a house in your 30s, by the time you're in your 50s it'll be paid for!
Take care of your friends. Find people in your life that challenge you and who you genuinely enjoy. Nurture them, take care of them, laugh with them, go on adventures with them, travel with them, and love them well.

Tukwila's Spice Bridge serves global cuisine cooked by immigrant, refugee women entrepreneurs

BY RACHEL BELLE
Former KIRO Newsradio features reporter
Federal Way's Monica Di Bartolomeo, an immigrant from Argentina, has a dream: to open a bakery featuring handmade empanadas, pastries, and sweets from her home country. But the process is daunting.
"The price of the kitchen is very expensive and too risky," Di Bartolomeo said. "Especially when you're starting."
So Di Bartolomeo, along with a collective of immigrant and refugee women of color, found a home in the incubator program at King County's Food Innovation Network.
"The intent of the incubator program is to help folks that have not had access to commercial kitchens and have challenges navigating the permitting system," said Kara Martin, program director. "The incubator program provides services around business development, as well as a commercial kitchen space. Even with English as my first language, I can tell you navigating permitting systems can be really confusing."
For several years, the incubator program has helped immigrant and refugee women launch catering businesses, create packaged food products, and sell their food at farmers' markets. But until now, they didn't have a permanent, physical space.
This month, they opened Spice Bridge, a food court and commercial kitchen in a brand new building.
"Spice Bridge is a global food hall in Tukwila," Martin said. "We're a non-profit running a food business incubator, so when you come in, you're supporting businesses that are just getting launched and have incredible culinary talent."
Spice Bridge features four restaurant kiosks, and eight vendors from the incubator program will rotate through. Some of the cuisine being served is not represented anywhere else in the region, like Caroline Musitu's Taste of Congo.
"I'm making the food that's most popular in my country, Congo," Musitu said.
Musitu fled Congo in 2009 with her husband and two children.
"There was a war, there's no peace," she said. "That's why we came here."
Her first job in Seattle was in the Oberto warehouse in Kent, but thanks to the incubator program and Spice Bridge, you can now taste her own cooking.
"It's like a big, big step with my dream," Musitu said. "I've had this dream since I was little. When I was helping my mom [cook for weddings and the community], I said I want to open my own restaurant. When I came here, I didn't know how to start."
Oumie Sallah owns Aleffa Jollof Catering Services with her sister, Adama Jammeh. They cook Gambian and Senegalese foods like jollof rice and chicken yassa, grilled chicken with an onion sauce.
"I am from Gambia, West Africa," Sallah said. "I came to the United States to better my future and change my life because I was going through a lot there."
She said she fled Gambia to leave a bad marriage.
"It's not easy sometimes with our husbands and the families," Sallah said. "That's why I am here."
Sallah says she is forever grateful for the Food Innovation Network's help navigating the complicated system and helping her get a business off the ground.
"These people are great! If we have a word more than 'thank you,' we will give it to them," Sallah said, smiling. "They make everything possible for us. We were crawling and now we are walking with our feet. We are so proud of them. Everything is convenient for us here. Everything is from them, so we have a very, very big thank you for them."
At Spice Bridge, eight vendors means food from more than eight different countries, including Cambodia, Afghanistan, and a mash up from Tanzania, Somalia, and Kenya.
Di Bartolomeo, who runs Seatango with her husband, says it's great to have the help and support of so many women entrepreneurs.
"The thing that I can say is that if you have a dream, just follow it," Di Bartolomeo said. "If you like to cook just keep doing it. We've spent more than 10 years trying to do this and the day came and the dream came true."
Website created in quarantine connects you with local farms that deliver fresh food
Most of these women will spend two years with the incubator, and most dream of moving on to open their own restaurant or sell a product.

Bell Witch – Four Phantoms
by Sean Barry
Several things will happen when you listen to the opening track of Four Phantoms, the latest work of Seattle funeral doom duo Bell Witch. Your neck will get weak and your head will hang low in reverence. Your spine will tingle as a chill takes hold, and you'll feel what seems like cold fingers up and down your back. Any comfort or rest you may find in the quiet spaces will soon be betrayed by bassist Dylan Desmond's sorrowful chords and drummer Adrian Guerra's monolithically slow tempo. And it'll be there, in the relentless dirge and mournful howling, that you'll feel a presence.
Four Phantoms is an anthology of hauntings. Its songs all act as soliloquies from four individual spirits eternally trapped and tortured by the four main elements: earth, fire, water, and air, featured in order. With no track coming in at under 10 minutes and two even clocking in at twice that, there is plenty of time within each to become completely enveloped in the purgatorial atmosphere. Each spirit's longing is as mournful as the last, and in true Dickensian form, there hardly lies a wait between their respective visitations.
Concept albums like these are not uncommon for funeral doom. Last year, Bell Witch's Finnish counterparts, Profetus, released the encompassing As All Seasons Die, also a four-part album, which reflected despairingly upon each season of the year. Like that album, Four Phantoms draws strength from its use of repetition and motif, often revisiting riffs over and over. A marvel it is, though, that while many of their peers create such trademark despondency with four or five band members, Desmond and Guerra are just as proficient as a duo.
Produced by Billy Anderson, who last year brought us Pallbearer's Foundations of Burden, an equally brilliant and dynamic work of doom, Four Phantoms leaves a lasting impression down deep in your psyche. For those of us who have never experienced an encounter with the paranormal, this album has got to be the next best thing.

Termites can be pesky insects – but how much do you know about them besides that? We took some time to study termites and see how they work! Did you know that different species have different colony sizes? There are many different colonies to watch out for, we have listed three.
The smallest colony of termites to watch out for is Drywood Termite colony. Drywood colonies, like their name suggests, love to make their colony homes in wood. These sneaky creatures can lodge themselves in any wooden structure. Their colony sizes can grow as large as 4,800 termites.
The next colony to keep your eye out for is the Subterranean Termite colony. Subterranean colonies build their colonies deep in the soil below ground. These massive, underground colonies can house between 60,000 to 1 million insects and can be very destructive to the soil and ground around your home; or worse, the ground that your home sits on.
The largest colony to be cautious of is the Formosan Termite colony. These termites are the largest colonies and can be extremely damaging just due to their large colony sizes. These colonies work fast and can mangle their way through a foot of 2×4 wood in less than a month! The average Formosan colony contains 350,000 to 2 million worker bugs. If that isn't scary enough, did you know that the largest Formosan colony ever found in the U.S. contained 70 million insects and weight an astonishing 600 pounds!
If you suspect that a colony may be around your home, call AMCO Exterminators! We are expert exterminators and can rid your home of these pests in a jiffy!

Rama Raya (died 23 January 1565 CE) was a statesman of the Vijayanagara Empire, the son-in-law of Emperor Krishna Deva Raya and the progenitor of the Aravidu dynasty of Vijayanagara Empire, the fourth and last dynasty of the empire.

As regent, he was the de facto ruler of the empire from 1542 to 1565, although legally the emperor during this period was Sadasiva Raya, who was merely a puppet ruler.

Rama Raya was killed at the Battle of Talikota, after which the Vijayanagara Empire got fragmented into several semi-independent principalities paying only nominal allegiance to the empire.

Early life and career
Rama Raya was born in a Telugu family. His mother was Abbaladevi, and she was the daughter of a chieftain in Nandyala. The Aravidu family of Rama Raya was native to South Andhra.

Rama Raya and his younger brother Tirumala Deva Raya were sons-in-law of the great Vijayanagara emperor Krishna Deva Raya. He is referred to as Aliya Rama Raya by Kannada people. The word "Aliya" means "son-in-law" in the Kannada language. Along with another brother Venkatadri, the Aravidu brothers rose to prominence during the rule of Krishna Deva Raya. Rama Raya was a successful army general, able administrator, and tactful diplomat who conducted many victorious campaigns during the rule of Krishnadevaraya.

After the demise of his illustrious father-in-law, as a member of the family, Rama Raya, began to wield great influence over the affairs of the state. In particular, Rama Raya rose to power following a civil war with the help of Pemmasani Erra Timmanayudu of the Pemmasani Nayaks. Krishna Deva Raya was succeeded in 1529 by his younger brother Achyuta Deva Raya, upon whose demise in 1542, the throne devolved upon his nephew Sadashiva Raya, then a minor. Rama Raya appointed himself regent during the minority of Sadashiva Raya. After Sadashiva Raya came of age to rule, Rama Raya kept him a virtual prisoner.

During this time, he became the virtual ruler, having confined Sadashiva Raya. Rama Raya removed many loyal servants of the kingdom and replaced them with officers who were loyal to him. He also appointed two Muslim commanders, the Gilani brothers who were earlier in the service of the Sultan Adil Shah as commanders in his army, a mistake that would cost the empire the final Battle of Talikota. Rama Raya lacked royal blood of his own and to legitimize his rule he claimed vicarious connection with two of the most powerful Empires of medieval India, the Western Chalukya Empire and the Chola empire.

Sultanate affairs
During his rule, the Deccan Sultanates were constantly involved in internal fights and requested Rama Raya on more than one occasion to act as a mediator, enabling Rama Raya to push north of the Krishna river and expand his domains utilizing the disunity of the Deccan Sultans. Rama Raya had a lot of money at his disposal, which he generously spent, and often sought strategic alliances with Deccani sultans, who he had intentionally kept divided. He also suppressed revolts of the chieftains of Travancore and Chandragiri. Some scholars have criticised Rama Raya for interfering in the affairs of the Sultans too much, but scholars like Dr. P.B. Desai have ably defended his political affairs, indicating that Rama Raya did whatever he could to increase the prestige and importance of the Vijayanagar empire, ensuring no single Sultanate would rise above the others in power, hence preventing a difficult situation for Vijayanagar empire. In fact Rama Raya had interfered in Sultanate affairs only upon the insistence of one Sultan or the other, just the way the Sultans had acted as parleys between Rama Raya and Achyuta Raya in earlier years. When the Nizam of Ahmednagar and Qutbshah of Golconda sought Rama Raya's help against Bijapur, Rama Raya secured the Raichur doab for his benefactors. Later in 1549 when the Adilshah of Bijapur and Baridshah of Bidar declared war on Nizamshah of Ahmednagar, Ramaraya fought on behalf of the Ahamednagar ruler and secured the fort of Kalyana. In 1557 Ramaraya allied himself with Ali Adilshah of Bijapur and Baridshah of Bidar when the Sultan of Bijapur invaded Ahmednagar. The combined armies of the three kingdoms defeated the partnership between Nizamshah of Ahmednagar and the Qutbshah of Golconda.

The Vijayanagar ruler's constantly changing sides to improve his own position eventually prompted the Sultanates to form an alliance. Intermarriage between Sultanate families helped resolve internal differences between Muslim rulers.  The Battle of Talikota resulted from this consolidation of Muslim power in the northern Deccan, who had felt insulted by Ramaraya and formed a 'general league of the faithful.'

Battle of Talikota

Rama Raya remained loyal to the legitimate dynasty until it was finally extinguished by war, with the notable exception of imprisoning the appointed ruler Sadashiva Raya and ruling in his stead. In 1565, it was Rama Raya, as the pre-eminent general of the Vijayanagar army, who led the defense against the invading army of Deccan Sultans (i.e. Husain Nizam Shah, Ali Adil Shah and Ibrahim Qutb Shah) in the battle of Talikota.

This battle, which had seemed an easy victory for the large Vijayanagar army, instead became a disaster as two Muslim commanders (Gilani brothers) of the Vijayanagara army betrayed and switched sides and turned their loyalty to the united Sultanates during critical point of battle. It led to the surprise capture and death by beheading of Rama Raya who led the army, a blow from which it never recovered. Rama Raya was beheaded by Hussain Nizam Shah of Ahmadnagar, the Indian Muslim of Deccani origin. His severed head was on display at Ahmednagar at the anniversary of the battle of Talikota and would be covered in oil and red pigment by the descendant of his executioner.

The city of Vijayanagara was thoroughly sacked by the invaders and the inhabitants were massacred. The royal family was largely exterminated. Vijayanagara, once a city of fabled splendour, the seat of a vast empire, became a desolate ruin, now known by the name of a sacred inner suburb within it, Hampi.

Q: Regular Expression backtracks until overflow in Java The following expression:
^(#ifdef FEATURE)+?\s*$((\r\n.*?)*^(#endif)+\s*[\/\/]*\s*(end of)*\s*FEATURE)+?$

Overrides the matching buffer when running my compiled .Jar file.
The matching string can be similar to:

this is a junk line
#ifdef FEATURE
#endif // end of FEATURE
this is a junk line
#ifdef FEATURE
this is a junk line that should be matched: HOLasduiqwhei & // FEATURE fjfefj
#endif // h
#endif FEATURE
this is a junk line

So, the bold strings should match. The error is as follows:
   at java.util.regex.Pattern$GroupHead.match(Unknown Source)
   at java.util.regex.Pattern$Loop.match(Unknown Source)
   at java.util.regex.Pattern$GroupTail.match(Unknown Source)

Any backtracking avoiding strategy/improvement of the expression is welcome. I have tried the atomic groups (?>) but doesn't simplify, for some reason.
The code is the following:
public String strip(String text) {
    ArrayList<String> patterns=new ArrayList<String>();
    patterns=readFile("Disabled_Features.txt");
    for(int i = 0; i < patterns.size(); ++i)
    {

      Pattern todoPattern = Pattern.compile("^#ifdef "+patterns.get(i)+"((?:\\r?\\n(?!#endif (?:// end of )?"+patterns.get(i)+"$).*)*)\\r?\\n#endif (?:// end of )?"+patterns.get(i)+"$",Pattern.MULTILINE);

      Matcher m = todoPattern.matcher(text);
      text = m.replaceAll("");
    }
    return text;
}

A: I have tried the code written by @Wiktor and works pretty well
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;

public class TestRegex {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    String text = "this is a junk line\n" +
        "\n" +
        "#ifdef FEATURE \n" +
        "#endif // end of FEATURE\n" +
        "\n" +
        "this is a junk line\n" +
        "\n" +
        "#ifdef FEATURE\n" +
        "\n" +
        "this is a junk line that should be matched: HOLasduiqwhei & // FEATURE fjfefj #endif // h\n" +
        "\n" +
        "#endif FEATURE\n" +
        "\n" +
        "this is a junk line";

    // this version does not use Pattern.MULTILINE, this should reduce the backtraking
    Matcher matcher2 = Pattern.compile("\\n#ifdef FEATURE((?:\\r?\\n(?!#endif (?:// end of )?FEATURE).*)*)\\r?\\n#endif (?:// end of )?FEATURE").matcher(text);
    while (matcher2.find()) {
      System.out.println(matcher2.group());
    }

  }
}

This let me to think that your problem is due to the size of input file.
So, in case your file is too big, you could implement the input as a CharSequence, so you could wrap your large text files. Why? Because building a Matcher from a Pattern takes a CharSequence as an argument.
https://github.com/fge/largetext

A: UPDATE:
I tried implementing the solution of Wiktor:
"^#ifdef "+patterns.get(i)+"((?:\\r?\\n(?!#endif (?:// end of )?"+patterns.get(i)+"$).*)*)\\r?\\n#endif (?:// end of )?"+patterns.get(i)+"$"

and it captures only the second block, but not the following one:

#ifdef FEATURE
Junk captured text
#endif // end of FEATURE

Anyway, when I run the jar still getting overflow.

Your main distinctive feature is constant search. Not everybody is ready to spend a considerable period of their life to achieve some heights. You're used to testing everything in your own experience, to comparing something, to making mistakes and to starting from scratch. You strike people with your patience and desire to win. You sometimes immerse yourself in work, which upsets your family and friends. When it happens, you struggle to cope with work and start to pay attention to the people you love. But if you don't manage to give yourself completely to what you like to do, there's still leisure time and hobbies, and it's up to you how to spend this time. More »
What is your real nationality? Find out if you have any characteristic streaks of other nationalities.
You have a generous but complicated nature. You're so full of contradictions that it's difficult to define your character in a couple of words.

More »
Are you addicted to the Internet? Take this quiz and find out if you're addicted to the world wide web!
Sometimes you think that the internet has taken you as a prisoner. However, you often manage to extricate yourself from it, because you value your time and understand that there should be limits for everything and that the Internet is no exception. But sometimes, you're unable to leave the virtual space and to switch back to reality, because the abundance of information is good lure, and it's not so important whether this information is useful or not. It can't be said that you're very addicted to the Internet, but if you keep letting your bad mood drag you back into the worldwide web, it will become more and more difficult to extricate yourself from it each time. You'd better turn to real friends for support, not to virtual names and avatars. More »

You seem to be a workaholic. Everybody wants to believe that he/she is indispensable at work, and order to convince others that it's true we impose more and more responsibilities upon ourselves. Before going for a holiday you prepare everything for your absence, and a holiday you spend on the phone and don't relax, that's why your family remains dissatisfied. It's a kind of a sacrifice for the sake of self-assertion. If you feel that you're exhausted of this tempo in your life, try to stop at least for a minute and look at everything from another point of view, take everything easier. Maybe you need a break for soul-searching.
