"We wanted a saxophonist to play at our wedding from the outset. Neither I nor my husband is musically trained and so we searched to find someone. As soon as I came across Saira, I knew that we had to have her play at our wedding. Saira was so friendly, warm and approachable even over text. We met with her before the wedding and any wedding nerves that I may have had evaporated. Saira kept in touch with us coming up to the wedding. It made me feel that I could leave her side of things to her and gave me one less thing to worry about. Saira played beautifully during our drinks reception.
We got married in a country house and I felt the music suited the surroundings so much. Saira played a complete mix of songs from love songs to quick, upbeat music which helped create a buzzing atmosphere when our guests were mingling. Our service ran over and during the actual service I worried about the length of time that we would have Saira left to play. I needed had worried as she simply played on which was wonderful. We got so many compliments from our wedding party about the music and how great it was to sip on champagne whilst listening to Saira's beautiful music. I cannot recommend Saira enough and having Saira play at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made."
"Saira plays with a sensitivity and brilliance which speaks to the hearts of the listeners."
"Listening to Saira's recitals means listening to a musician who has completely fallen in love with her instrument and the music she is playing. Extraordinary! I am thankful for having had the chance to listen to her."
"Saira's teaching style was both very different and just what I needed. She was able to recognise that I had a problem with timing and showed me some really helpful exercises and I've been able to progress further. Saira is a gifted and talented musician and teacher. "
"I came to Saira as a beginner and she was able to help me grasp the basics while at the same time being conscious of my needs as an adult. I am thrilled with the progress I have made so far and would highly recommend Saira as a teacher. "
"Having "Always" wanting to play the Sax I finally succumbed and made my purchase, I then proceeded to mess around with it for a couple of years, I then moved back up to Manchester from London and "found" my sax again. Having searched around for somebody local ish (unsuccessfully at the time) I stumbled across Saira. (I have to point out at this point that I haven't received a penny for this revue) Saira is without question one of the best teachers I have ever come across in my business and Personnel Life somebody who takes the fear out of learning music and really puts a smile on your face, I suppose one of the biggest things for me was Saira has got me to believe in Me and every time I leave a lesson I most defiantly have a spring in my step, Thank you SAIRA and I hope to know you for many years - you are a joy to be around."
"When I first went for saxophone lessons I was apprehensive as I couldn't play at all. However, Saira was so welcoming and friendly that she put me to ease straight away. Her love of music is infectious and that shines through in her teaching. She has been very patient and kind and her motivational approach has definitely helped me to play. The more I play the saxophone the more I love it and I couldn't have done that without Saira's expertise. I would definitely recommend her as she is a great teacher!"

Major forms of agriculture in Nigeria
Thursday, December 21, 2017 at 5:16 PM by Andrella Tersoo
Nigeria's climate is perfect for different forms of agriculture. Our country is geographically located in the tropical zone. The local weather conditions are good for growing vegetables in different parts of the country and perfect for cultivating various types of crops in many areas. In addition, Nigeria cultivates many animals and plants for the domestic market and for export. If you are interested in major forms of agriculture in Nigeria, you can learn about them in our post.
Nearly 30 percent of Nigerian people are involved in agriculture. This economic sector is tremendously important here. Only imagine, about 30 percent of country's land area (this is over 80 million acres) can be used for farming. Farmers produce more than 80 percent of the food in Nigeria.
What branches of agriculture are most popular here? Each part of the country has its own features in terms of agriculture. For example, the Southern areas of Nigeria have long rains and such humidity works well for growing cocoa, coffee, potatoes, melon, cotton, rice etc. The areas in the Eastern part of Nigeria and near the coast have too many rains which lead to soil erosion and inability to plant palms, cocoyam etc. The Northern areas are mostly used for cultivating livestock. You can find horses, donkeys, camels, goats, sheep and other animals here.

4 types of agriculture
What is agriculture in the first place? It's the science and practice of cultivating the soil for planting and growing different crops and farming animals for wool, food, and other various products. Generally, this science is divided into 4 types:
subsistence farming
commercial farming
shifting cultivation
pastoralism
The first type refers to a system whereby cultivators grow crops for both personal consumption and exchange. In other words, the small piece of land is used to produce more product per acre than similar subsistence lands.
From the name, you can guess that the main goal of commercial farming is to produce agricultural products in order to receive profit from selling these products. Unfortunately, in Nigeria, this type of agriculture is not developed as much as it should be. Many farmers need support from the government to build a successful farming business.
Cultivation by shifts is a popular system when farmers use plots of land to grow crops temporary and then let the land revert to its natural vegetation. The farmer works with different plots and always abandons the ones that were used for agriculture and now need some rest.
Factors affecting agricultural production in Nigeria
Pastoralism is a type of agriculture when farmers travel with their domesticated livestock in search for better pasturage.
Forms of agriculture in Nigeria
There are approximately 92 million hectares of land in Nigeria. Our country's climate is perfect for the cultivation of over 80 million of hectares but farmers use no more than 34 million hectares for growing crops and breeding domestic animals.
The agricultural sector is getting a lot of attention from small to big enterprises. Still, most of the land holdings are scattered across the country. Nigerian farmers typically have small holdings. A large number of farms in Nigeria are smaller than one hectare. These lands are cultivated by ordinary people who cannot afford innovative tools and still prefer following the traditional agricultural methods.
As we have already mentioned, a lot of local farmers are followers of subsistence agricultural method so most of the food they grow is for their family needs only, not for the market. Locals use the simplest tools and follow the shifting cultivation tradition.

The 2 main groups of products cultivated in Nigeria are:
crops grown for local consumption
export food

What are the most popular branches of agriculture here?
Nigerian farmers grow different crops, fruits, and vegetables. This includes peanuts, corn, yams, sorghum, manioc, sugar cane, soybeans, palm oil and other products.
Nigerians cultivate animals to produce meat, milk products, wool and other different products. The main types of meat are produced from chicken, goats, and cows. The most commonly bred animals are sheep, pigs, horses, cattle, and goats. The main birds are ducks, chicken, turkey etc.
Also, Nigeria produces cocoa, rubber and cotton lint for foreign exchange.
Now you know the major forms of agriculture in Nigeria. These forms, to a large extrent, depend on the economic situation in the country. But on the other hand, the economy of Nigeria depends on the forms of agriculture used and on its level of development.

Add this fall leaf wreath to your front door in about 5 minutes. This is a quick and easy project that anyone can make. Plus it is really affordable when you shop for supplies at Old Time Pottery. You will never guess what we used to make this fall leaf wreath! The secret is revealed below and will make this your quickest craft project this fall.
Start with any wreath form in any size. Then you will need several fall leaf garlands. The secret is purchasing these long leaf garlands at your local Old Time Pottery. You can pick any garland that you love and turn it into a wreath in minutes. You do not even need any glue! See how below.
I used eight garlands on my wreath to get it nice and full. I wrapped two garlands at a time onto the wreath form to save time. Just tie the ends around the form as shown below. This way you do not need any glue and can even reuse the garlands and wreath form for another project at a later date.
Keep wrapping the wreath form with the leaf garlands. Keep everything nice and full so that your wreath form does not show. Push all of your leaves to the front of the wreath as you wrap as well. This will ensure that all leaves will be visible when you hang this fall leaf wreath on your front door.
I kept wrapping until I was happy with the wreath. Tweak individual leaves when you are done to perfect the wreath then just hang it on your front door or anywhere outdoors.
This fall leaf wreath will be a gorgeous addition to your outdoor fall decor. If you love a quick and easy craft idea, this one is for you! Get your supplies at Old Time Pottery and get started decorating your front door for the upcoming season.

I shopped my local Old Time Pottery, for the garlands. I skipped fall & went right to Christmas. The best price I could come up with, for enough garland, was close to $50, and that did not include the wreath form. What outside diameter wreath did you use? And, how many garlands? Thanks.
Love idea this is so easy and quick along with being inexpensive to make. The gorgeous rich colors really make it outstanding.

To quote the legendary Bob Dylan, "Times, they are a changing." For years we've heard how streaming music will transform the music business. That time has finally arrived. Like all disruptive technology, there are winners and losers. This month we take a look at how streaming has all but negated radio's influence, how YouTube just shook-up the music charts, and why after years of turbulence, the good times are here again (financially speaking).
How Spotify Killed The Radio Star
The music business has been the perennial "canary in the coal mine" for the content and entertainment industries since Napster started eating its lunch in 1999. Bob Lefsetz's newsletter, "The Lefsetz Letter" has been a thorn in the side of music executives for decades, pointing out their slow, stubborn adoption of new business models. He's not always nice (Taylor Swift's song "Mean" is about Lefsetz), but he always challenges conventional thought and gives a unique perspective to the business. In this article, Lefsetz points out how Spotify is destroying radio's influence.
Youtube Loophole Leads to Billboard Chart Shakeup
Recently Billboard started including streams of songs on YouTube to calculate its music charts. It didn't take long for one label to discover how to game the system and land their artist at number one.
Streaming Music Revenues Will Jump 500% By 2030
Speaking of streaming and YouTube, after almost two decades of decline, the music business may have finally found its groove.
FILM & TV INDUSTRY
After one of the worst summers in the film industry's history, no one can deny that OTT (over the top) TV is keeping people away from the cinema. Studios are looking overseas for new audiences and OTT studios are competing for new viewers. The golden age of TV has ignited a content war between the likes of Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBO and others. But, if we learned one thing this month, it's that Netflix is beating everyone.
Netflix plans to spend $8 Billion on Content in 2018
Reed Hastings must have laughed when Apple's announced their "mere" $1 billion investment in 2018 content.
Netflix plans to release 80 films in 2018
Sorry, movie industry, things may have just gone from bad to worse.
Netflix blows past subscriber growth targets, and hits an all-time high
Last quarter Netflix added 5.3 million total subscriptions. At some point they have to run out of people to convert into new customers, right?
Barry Diller to Hollywood: The Boat Has Passed on Competing With Netflix

Why Does Hollywood Keep Making the Same Kind of Movies, Even When They Flop?
Ever wonder why we need another Pirates of the Caribbean film? Do you ever ask yourself, "Who watches all of these Transformers movies?" In one chart, Alissa Wilkinson of Vox breaks down how the other side of the world is determining what Hollywood makes. Have you heard of Wolf Warrior 2? Most Americans haven't. While it only played in 53 U.S. theaters, it grossed almost $1 billion worldwide.
One of the Best True Crime Stories of 2017 Isn't on TV (Yet)
GQ writer Joshua River writes, "The Hunting Accident is a new graphic novel from first-time graphic novelists David L. Carlson and Landis Blair, a stunning work of prose, pencil, and ink about a lesser-known chapter in the Leopold and Loeb saga. It tells the incredible story of Matt Rizzo, a Chicago teen with aspirations of being a gangster, only to be locked up—and blinded—in his first score, losing his sight and his freedom in small-stakes stickup gone horribly wrong."

Mike & Steve did a great job repairing my Mazda Tribute hood when a large box truck backed up into it. Ironically, they also did a great job fixing my car door and fender when a different box truck backed up into it just 2 years before. I highly recommend their service. They made working with my insurance company a breeze.


Imagine for a moment, a day about a year from now.
Two men, dressed similarly in khaki pants, button-down shirts and sensible shoes walk simultaneously into different ends of a shopping mall in Towson, Maryland, a suburban community just outside of Baltimore and only 45 miles from Washington, D.C. It is 2 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon, just three weeks before Christmas, and the mall is packed with frazzled holiday shoppers. Many are children, waiting impatiently for a photo on Santa's knee.
At 2:03 pm, shoppers leaving the Macy's store at the south end of the mall are blown to the floor by a massive explosion. As security and two local police officers stationed at the mall rush to the scene and call for help, a second explosion rips through mall's food court.
When the smoke clears, 419 Americans are dead, most of them children. An additional 865 are injured. Many were caught under the debris when part of the mall's roof collapsed.
As a result of the dual Towson bombers, Americans spend the weeks before Christmas at home, concerned about the security of their local shopping centers. The American economy is devastated as a holiday shopping season that bore so much promise is transformed into an economic disaster. Recession looms as major retailers, one after another, declare bankruptcy.
Two days before the bombings, a Maryland state trooper stopped one of the bombers on I-695 near Towson for driving with a broken tail light. Investigators would later determine that the second bomber was in the passenger seat.
The trooper, following an oft-practiced procedure, reviewed the suspect's driver's license. Issued by the State of Maryland, it was valid, listed the driver's home address in Towson, and showed that he had a clean driving record. The trooper, following his usual practice, gave the driver a warning, instructed him sternly to have his tail light repaired and sent him on his way.
The trooper, of course, had no way of knowing that the two men in the recently-purchased, though slightly used, Ford sedan were terrorists. But more importantly, thanks to Congressional foot-dragging, he had no way of knowing that both men were in the country illegally, the driver having overstayed his student visa while the passenger had slipped under a fence in the Arizona desert.
As of today, eleven states, including Maryland, issue driver's licenses to illegal aliens. Only a handful require that licenses for resident aliens expire at the same time as their visas.
Yet had a simple ban on issuing driver's licenses to illegals or a requirement that the expiration date of the driver's visa be printed on his driver's license been in place, the trooper in this nightmare scenario would have been obliged to take stern measures against the soon-to-be bomber for driving on an expired license. He could have learned that both men were in the country illegally. And law enforcement would have taken a more careful look at the suspects. In all likelihood, they would have been caught and their plans foiled.
The failure to include the two measures ― federal standards barring the issuance of driver's licenses to illegal aliens and requiring that licenses expire when legal residents' visas expire ― in the recently passed intelligence reform bill is a potentially tragic missed opportunity. And it's the real reason behind Congressman James Sensenbrenner's (R-WI) efforts to delay the bill until those provisions could be included.
Bowing to intense pressure, Congressman Sensenbrenner withdrew his objections and allowed the intelligence reform bill to pass, but not before he extracted an assurance that these two measures would be brought up for consideration early in 2005. Here's hoping that common sense prevails and Sensenbrenner's proposal passes easily.
Our security and our safety demand nothing less.


The Frank Lloyd Wright Tree of Life hopper style bird feeder in Driftwood finish is hand built using marine grade plywood - the material Frank Lloyd Wright specified for building wardrobes at Fallingwater, with polycarbonate windows and design inserts. The Tree of Life design is visible on both front and back of the feeder. The insert designs are adapted from a Tree of Life art glass window sketch study for the Martin House, located in the historic Parkside neighborhood of Buffalo, New York. Tree of Life Feeder dimensions. Ht: 11". W: 9.5". D: 6.5". Includes hanging cord.
The Frank Lloyd Wright Tree of Life Design Doormat is inspired by several variations of this design with its strong horizontal lines and planes in Wright's Darwin D. Martin House. This doormat is constructed in coir fiber pressed into a natural rubber base. The generous proportions of this mat are 36 inches by 22 inches.
The Frank Lloyd Wright Oak Park Tulip Window Doormat is adapted from the Playroom Window of the Oak Park Home and Studio in Oak Park, Illinois (1895). This doormat is constructed in coir fiber pressed into a natural rubber base. The generous proportions of this mat are 36 inches by 22 inches.


Getting that left (or right) foot working is so important as a drummer. We can give so much to the music by learning how to employ it outside of simply stepping time and using it to open and/or splash the odd hi-hat. We're not talking extreme independence, we're just talking about simple ways of using it to great musical and rhythmic effect by just thinking slightly outside the box.
This month we're looking at developing this concept in the context of double pedal work, but not from a metal perspective - gone are the days when the double pedal was something synonymous with metal - this is purely about Augmenting the groove, and it could be any groove in any genre. This is about adding to the music or the song with great effect but without getting in the way of it all.
Make sure you get the groove cooking first and if you haven't focused, technically speaking, on what your feet are doing before, start by making sure that as you develop the idea your foot isn't flying off its respective pedal; it should remain in contact with the foot plate and you should aim to remain balanced, central to the kit and relaxed - from the tip of your toe to the last hair on your head - at all times.
Watch the lessons - examples 1-4 - below.

2020 is Suzuki's 100th Anniversary
Article By Suzuki Media Site
2020 is Suzuki's 100th Anniversary with Michio Suzuki having first started in business in March 1920 with the manufacture of textile looms. These became more advanced and very popular right through to the early 1950's when there was a global decline in the cotton industry.
Initial development of Suzuki's first car began as far back as 1937 although this had to be shelved later with the outbreak of the second World War. Research and development finally resumed in 1954 when Suzuki Motor Co Limited was formed.
Using Suzuki's 'Yaramaika' spirit, (translated as 'Let's do it') which was deep in the root of the Enshu region where Suzuki originated together with his determination to drive forward, Michio quickly began researching vehicles produced overseas and gained a wealth of knowledge to build the first Suzuki car, known as the Suzulight.
Suzulight was a compact vehicle weighing just over 500kg and powered by a 360cc, 15PS two cylinder, two-stroke engine and the first of its type to ever be fitted to a car. It was also the first car in Japan to feature a Front Wheel Drive / Front engine layout.
The Suzulight easily met the Japanese 'Keijidosha' or Kei light car legislation and Suzuki and his team quickly began their first development road testing of it.
As a prototype, its most memorable early drive was a 300km trip across the Hakone mountainous region between Hamamatsu and Tokyo which proved challenging on roads that had not yet been paved. Although arriving very late in the evening, the team arrived to present the car to the President of 'Yanase Auto' Japan's leading authority on Automobiles.
The President had stayed on late to greet the team and made his way out to thoroughly test the car. Several hours later he returned very impressed and immediately gave Suzuki full approval to put the Suzulight into production. It was way ahead of its time with independent coil spring suspension and rack and pinion steering.
Production commenced in October 1955 with initial production of 3-4 cars per month but by early 1956 monthly volume had climbed to 30 units.
In 1959, design changed with the development of the Suzulight TL model and popularity of Suzuki cars quickly grew. The TL also adopted the Front Wheel Drive / Front Engine layout method and gained high acclaim thanks to its superior interior and storage space within its very compact size. The engine remained as a two-stroke, air cooled 360cc unit but with an increase in power to 21PS at 5,500rpm.
Suzuki experienced a rapid rise in production of mini vehicles thanks to the TL. In December 1959, just three months after its launch it had already reached the monthly production goal of 200 units which climbed very sharply in FY 1960 to a total of 5,824 units.
65 years since delivery of its first car, Suzuki remains globally renowned as the 'small car experts' and produces three million units per year. Michio Suzuki's original strategy of the design and production of lightweight vehicles lives on with platforms introduced for Ignis and Swift. The latest Swift Sport Hybrid weighs in at just 1,025kg.

Delegates begin by using the Oracle BI Administration Tool to construct a simple repository to address a fictitious company's business requirements. Delegates import schemas, design and build logical business models, and expose business models to users in the Oracle BI user interface. In the process of constructing the repository, delegates learn how to build physical and logical joins, simple measures, and calculation measures. They also learn how to validate their work by creating and running analyses, and verifying query results using the query log.
Delegates then extend the initial repository and learn how to model more complex business requirements, such as logical dimension hierarchies, multiple logical table sources, aggregate tables, partitions, and time series data. They also learn how to implement Oracle BI Server security, manage Oracle BI Server cache, set up a multi-user development environment, and use Administration Tool wizards and utilities to manage, maintain, and enhance repositories.
Finally, delegates are exposed to more advanced topics, such as implicit fact columns, bridge tables, usage tracking, multilingual environments, write back, and patch merge.

Somalilandsun – In its end-of-year official report, the Russian Foreign Ministry indicated that Russia, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, has made a substantial contribution to resolving conflicts and crises in Mali, Somalia, Sudan and the Central African Republic and many other African countries.
Russia also provided targeted humanitarian relief aid to Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Cameroon. The report, however, did not state the total amount that was spent on humanitarian aid to Africa in 2015.
With regards to health, Russia's contribution to the international effort to fight the deadly Ebola virus in West Africa (mainly in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone) was estimated at around $60 million, according to an international department head of Russia's health watchdog Rospotrebnadzor.
Russia continues participating in the joint effort to create a vaccine against the Ebola virus, which is expected to be ready for mass use in early 2016, the director of the Health Ministry's department Marina Shevyreva said. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the deadly Ebola virus has killed some 11,300 people in West Africa.
Last February, to ease the situation of refugees who have been streaming from neighboring states into Cameroon, the Russian government delivered provided food aid for refugees amounting to US$ 2.5 million (1.3 billion CFA francs).
According to statistics issued by the Cameroon government and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, around 300,000 refugees from Nigeria and the Central African Republic have sought refuge in Cameroon.
The Republic of Burundi on May 13 last year saw a coup attempt and as a result threw the country into chaos. Burundi descended into violence after President Pierre Nkurunziza announced he was running for a third term. The decision to run for a third term in office was seen by opponents as a contradiction to the constitution. Coup leader General Niyombare is currently on the run. The failure of their coup bid and re-election of Nkurunziza have not stopped the unrest in the country.
Over the past years, Russia has played pivotal roles in helping resolve many multi-faceted conflicts on the continent. For instance last September, there was a three-way consultation, the first time within this format, with the participation of Sudanese Foreign Minister Ibrahim Ghandour and South Sudanese Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Minister Benjamin Barnaba, to utilize the "Moscow platform" to continue the dialogue on the issues that remain in the relations between the two states.
The joint meeting made some important decisions by the Sudanese and South Sudanese foreign ministers, above all, regarding the need to implement – to the maximum degree and as soon as possible – all the provisions of the document on the inter-Sudanese settlement that were signed over the past two or three years.
Russia welcomed the efforts to stabilize the situation in the Republic of South Sudan, where a conflict has been ongoing since 2013, as well as the signing of a peace agreement between the South Sudanese government and the opposition last August.
Russia supported them to continue advocating for a political, diplomatic settlement of all outstanding issues, among other things, by following a corresponding approach at the UN Security Council.
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, meeting separately with the Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Ministers from Rwanda, Congo and Madagascar last year, stressed Russia's preparedness to boost humanitarian aid to natural and man-made disasters regions as well as continue helping to find lasting solutions to conflicts in Africa.
"We agree that various conflicts in Africa require heightened attention of the world community and the UN, primarily in order to support the approaches of Africans who know better than others how to approach complicated issues on their continent," Lavrov told Rwandan Louise Mushikiwabo during a joint media conference held last October in Moscow.
They further shared opinions on the events in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the African Great Lakes Region as a whole, the Horn of Africa, the Central African Republic and South Sudan.
As always, Russia has agreed on the need to contribute to the subregional organizations on the continent and to continue consolidating the peacemaking potential of the African Union (AU). In addition, Russia regularly provides funds for the annual training of about 80 peacemakers from African countries.
"We will help strengthen the peacekeeping potential of African countries in the form of training peacekeepers from African countries and helping them equip their peacekeeping contingents," Lavrov said in January last year after talks with Burundi Foreign Minister Laurent Kavakure.
In all discussions and consultations held throughout 2015, both African and Russian sides have had in-depth exchange of opinions on key issues on the African agenda with a particular focus on easing crisis situations in Africa.
Russian President Vladimir Putin stressed at a previous ceremony when receiving credentials from ambassadors of several foreign countries, including diplomats of several African states, that Russia has planned to give all necessary humanitarian assistance to conflict-stricken African countries.

MORE than 6,000 employers of Filipino domestic workers in Hong Kong had been included in the watchlist of the Philippine Overseas Labor Office (POLO), according to its latest data.
The number of HK employers on the watchlist reached 6,034 at the end of 2018 while 57 more names were added as of January 24, the POLO said.
The POLO started the watchlist in 2006 and employers included in the list cannot hire a Filipino domestic worker unless they personally go to the POLO in Wan Chai to disprove the accusations against them.
The POLO informs the employment agency and would schedule an interview with the employer.
The other reasons for being put on the watchlist include employers who frequently terminate FDHs, refusing to settle the FDH's last salary, or not paying for her return flight to the Philippines.
The number of employers on the POLO watchlist had grown over the years. It reached 4,990 in July 2016 before going up to 5,791 June 2017.
"As the workers get more aware that there is this process, that (the increasing number) is a natural thing to occur," Dela Torre said.
The POLO began listing names of abusive employers after popular Cantopop singer Jacky Cheung accused his domestic worker, Preslyn Catacutan, of stealing a letter and three photos from him in 2006.
His name was included in the list after it was discovered that he had 21 domestic helpers in just three years.

Superman Copyright Lawsuit
Superman is the most well known Superhero of all times making billions of dollars over the years. However, most people don't know the history behind the ownership of Supermans copyrights. While Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster created the character Superman in 1933 they sold the copyrights to DC Comics in 1938 therefore DC Comics has ownership of the character. After many court battle the final ruling was in favor of DC Comics having full ownership of the character.
The first edition of Superman was published in May of 1938. Joe Shuster and Jerry siegel were hired by DC comics to create a 13 page comic of Superman, they were paid $130 ($10 a page) for their work. When Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel agreed on this deal they signed away the copyrights to their character Superman(Jerry Siegel). They soon after realized that they made the biggest mistake of their lives. They continued to work with DC comics and by the year 1946 they each had a steady salary of approximately $100,000 a year, small change compared to the millions of dollars DC comics was making off of Jerry's and Joe's work. Joe and Jerry also realized that More Fun Comics began to publish Superboy, a younger superhero almost identical to Superman. Joe and Jerry did not receive any compensation for that character. They felt they deserved a larger share of the profits so they started the relentless battle over the copyrights of Superman. They hired attorney Albert Zugsmith and began to battle DC comics for the copyrights of Superman and credit for the new character Superboy. By the year 1948 Joe and Jerry spend all of their money on the legal battle and finally received $200,000(Weems, Erik). "But this was not for the rights of Superman, it was only royalties for the character Superboy." (Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster and Superman). Not only did they receive $200,000 they were also promised that their names would show up in Superman movies, cartoons, and TV shows as Superman's creators. This seemed like a good deal to them at the time but soon after, both Jerry and Joe were fired from their jobs at DC comics due to the lawsuit. They attempted to create other comic book characters in the 50's such as Funnyman, but none were successful(Tye, Larry). Jerry and his family soon found themselves close to poverty.
During the 60's and 70's Jerry and Joe became the center of attention once again in the comic community. But it wasn't until 1969 that Jerry and Joe attempted to sue DC comics, once again for the rights over Superman. It was at this time that DC comics had to renew their copyrights. Jerry and Joe thought this could be their way in. At this time both Jerry and Joe were slipping into deep poverty(Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster and Superman) . In 1975 Jerry's and Joe's claim was denied by the federal court which meant that their last chance at gaining the rights to Superman was to take the case to the U.S. Supreme Court. This legal battle was called "Siegel and Shuster VS. Warner Communications". At the time that Jerry and Joe had brought up the case, Warner Bros, DC comics' parent company, was releasing the Superman movie Superman. Jerry knew that Warner Bros didn't want any bad publicity at the time of the release of the new movie, so he went ahead and sent out a press release to the media exposing the terrible deal Shuster and him were given. This angered Warner Bro's tremendously, they would do anything to get Jerry and Joe off their backs. So they agreed on a settlement of $20,000 a year and credit on all superman comics and movies stating that Superman was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster(Weems, Erik). Joe Shuster died on July 30, 1992 at age 78 and Jerry Siegel died on January 28, 1996 at age 81. They both achieved great milestones in their lives one of the greatest is being credited for their creation, Superman(Tye, Larry). Although both Siegel and Shuster were dead, the battle over Superman was not over.
On April 16, 1999 Joanne Siegel, Jerry's widow, and their daughter, Laura Siegel Larson, filed a "copyright termination" attempting to cancel the copyright transaction done in 1937. Warner Bros rejected the termination and the case went back into the courtroom. Then in 2002 the Siegel estate filed a request for ownership of Superboy. Their request was granted in 2006 but then taken away in 2007. Warner Bros was required to have a film out by the year 2011 in order to keep their copyrights. Therefore, the movie Man Of Steel was released. However in 2008 a judge ruled that the Siegel family is entitled to a share of the copyrights to Superman. The judge also granted the Siegel family payments for their share of copyrights dating back to 1999. This was a huge win for the Siegel family although their success did not last(Weems, Erik). The legal Battle took a sad turn for the worse on the Siegel's side. Joanne, Seigel's widow, at the age of 93, began to suffer from a tragic heart disease. Joanne's daughter also suffered from multiple sclerosis, spine disorders and fibromyalgia. To make matters worse Warner Bros accused the Seigel's lawyers from Toberoff law firm, of using stolen information. They allegedly acquired this information from an ex-employee. "The idea was that the studio and publisher hired attorney Daniel Petrocelli to come up with a new strategy to prevent the studio from possibly losing a portion of the copyright to Superman in 2013" (Finke, Nikki). Warner Bros was stalling for time. They knew that Joanne's time was limited and the case would weaken without her. Joanne died on Valentines day of 2011, she left behind a note addressed to Jeffrey Bewkes, Chairman and CEO for Time Warner, Inc.. "She asked for the litigation and harassment to end. She explained that she was, at the age of 93, suffering from a serious heart condition and her cardiologist told her she could no longer go through any more depositions without risking a heart attack or stroke. Joanne said that she and her daughter had told the attorneys everything that they would need and that the additional depositions were just opportunities to continue harassment and delay a judicial resolution. Mrs. Siegel wanted to get her share of Superman. She never saw the end."(Tye, Larry). In 2012 things turned around and began to lean towards the Warner Bros side. An agreement signed by Joe Shuster's sister in 1992 which "Waived the right to any 'past, present, or future claims against DC' in exchange for $25k a year and coverage of her brother's debts"(Goodwin, Jess) was brought up. The Siegels and Shusters had signed away their rights to Superman years ago. On December 12, 2013, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal made its ruling 2-1 in favor of Warner Bros having all copyrights for Superman(Tye, Larry). The battle had come to an end.
The Superman copyright battle was a long and traitorous battle between Siegel and Shuster and Warner Bros Inc. When Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel sold the copyrights to Superman they made a mistake that would stay with them till the day they died. Moreover, when DC comics purchased the copyrights to superman in 1938 they completely took out Siegel and Shuster from the equation.

In an October video posted of a TEDx correctional facility talk, Army veteran Andrew "Sarge" Chambers gave a heartfelt account of his difficult transition to civilian life after the events of 9/11 convinced him to march to war.
Chambers, who is from Pickerington, Ohio, depicted one memory in which he awoke to a chaotic battle scene and gunfire, and remembered being astonished to hear someone laughing through it.
Following his first tour, Chambers says the Army asked for volunteers to stay for an additional length of time, for which he says he volunteered as he was not married and did not have children.
Chambers recalled losing seven fellow soldiers during his second tour, in which he and others would find and neutralize roadside IEDs.
He says when he returned to the United States, the stress of combat had left him on edge.
Chambers recollected seeking help from the Veterans Administration and being prescribed a sleep aid, but says the medication did little to quell his inner rage.
Iraqi war veteran Andrew "Sarge" Chambers.
The veteran's story shines light on why many enlistees contemplate and commit suicide as an alternative to coping with pent-up, carefully-stoked rage. It also shows how the establishment casts the mental health needs of returning veterans by the wayside, and deems soldiers threats once their honed warrior instincts surface.

Review: Romancing SaGa II
By Chris Shive on December 26, 2017
Romancing SaGa II
PC | PS4 | PSV | Switch | XBO |
Developer: Artepiazza
Release: December 15, 2017
Reissuing a game over two decades after its release is always a bit of a gamble that relies heavily on nostalgia to determine whether or not it will be commercially successful. Usually they do alright, since publishers typically are savvy enough to release games that are remembered fondly enough where people want to revisit them. Romancing SaGa II is not this type of reissue. It was originally released in Japan in 1993 and did not see a western release until 2016 on Android and iOS devices. The SaGa series does have a western fan base, and those of us who had an original Game Boy may have even played some SaGa games without even knowing it when they were retitled to become the Final Fantasy Legend trilogy. The target audience is presumably SaGa fans that want to check out any missed entries and hardcore retro JRPG fans in general.
Romancing SaGa II is a straight port of the mobile version from 2016. This itself isn't such a negative, since any app running mobile device in 2016 can handle a 1993 game with a facelift, but this does become obvious during the battle when the command windows occupy so much space in the middle of the screen. This doesn't ruin the experience, but does show the absence of optimization that was put into this port for each system it went to, though that is a small price to pay for it being available on just about every current console.
Romancing SaGa II looks like a typical early '90s JRPG, and while it does share many tropes it isn't typical. The story begins with Varennes being ruled by Emperor Leon, who is making sure the empire is protected from evil and his two sons, Victor and Gerard. Victor is the rightful heir to the throne, but Leon wants to make sure Gerard has some combat experience just in case, so one can imagine that something bad is going to happen to both Leon and Victor so just in case makes Gerard the emperor. The world was once protected by the legendary Seven Heroes, but one of those Heroes is attacking the capital city of Avalon. The Seven Heroes returning to the world as villains is a bit of a twist, but that isn't what sets this apart from other JRPGs since the great hero gone bad isn't exactly an unheard of concept. Gerard becomes emperor during the prologue and is tasked with seeking vengeance and defeating the other Heroes. The twist comes in where Gerard will not be able to achieve this in his lifetime and his heir will have to take over this mission and this is where the mechanics start to deviate from the traditional JRPG format.
Enemies are seen walking about the world map and contact with them initiates battle which is the standard turn-based command entering system. An action is assigned to each party member, and then all characters and enemies will act in a computer-determined order. All surviving members are restored to full health after each battle and any slain members are permanently removed. Every time a character falls in battle they lose a life point and they're dead for good once all life points are gone. If all parties are defeated, the traditional game over screen will not appear, but instead the player must choose a new emperor or empress to become the heir, inherit their predecessor's power and recruit new soldiers from the castle to venture back into what other nest of monsters killed the previous party. In other words, don't get too attached to anyone in the current party since it's a safe bet you'll be going through quite a few heirs thanks to the difficulty level rising quickly.
Battle does require quite a bit of strategy. The player can put their party into different formations that carry different pros and cons, and different weapon types have different levels of effectiveness against different monsters so figuring out how to pick different soldiers to recruit and how to equip them matters. Luckily each character can equip a few different weapons at once and cycle through them in battle.
The way experience points and gold function in Romancing SaGa II is also different from the norm. Characters do not gain levels, instead their hit points increase in tiny increments after battles and their specific skills increase through usage, so if you want someone to be good with a bow and arrow they need to act as an archer in combat on a regular basis. One of the perks of ruling an empire is no shop keeper wants to take your money, so the player is free to stock up on any equipment they want which is useful since the empire doesn't seem to send out search parties to loot the corpses of the previous party. Instead the money collected goes into the empire's treasury, and gets invested into developing new equipment and expanding the empire.
Romancing SaGa II is an innovative approach to the JRPG template, though it may not seem as impressive or ambitious as it would have in 1993. There are a lot of good ideas, but the overall design has some issues. Difficulty is inconsistent where a party can be dominating a region but run into a regular battle and suddenly their party members have the hit accuracy as Mr. Magoo at a trap shooting tournament. A lot of the flaws that permeate the experience are due to the age. I can only comment on the PlayStation 4 version, but controls for walking around aren't very good, it feels like there is a lag when pressing the directional button and when the character moves on screen which can get frustrating when trying to avoid the wandering enemies, especially if this includes trying to get through a door. The empire building feature may have been impressive at the initial release but is a bit underwhelming when compared to similar ideas in more contemporary games. The nonlinear nature of the story advancement allows the player to prioritize and balance different quests and explore at their own pace. For the 24 year old game they did update the visuals for the mobile port which does look nicer than it did at the original launch, but being as this is a port of the mobile game it doesn't look all that nice on a large TV.
Romancing SaGa II is not without its issues, but it's an entertaining title overall. Fans of the SaGa series should check it out just for the historical aspect of it, provided they have tempered expectations for what they will get from the experience. Romancing SaGa II has the look and basic gameplay elements of traditional JRPGs, but deviates from the standard formula with nonlinear story progression, an heir system where multiple generations continue the quest and a nontraditional character growth system. These ideas make for an interesting experience, but the game's age shows the limitations of the execution of these ideas. Porting this title from mobile without any new updates to optimize the console experience wasn't ideal, which shows in the text bubble interface that dominates the battle screen and in the poor controls. Anyone willing to overlook those flaws, however, can have a lot of fun with this one.

Is Splitting a Blog Post Into Multiple Pages Good for SEO?
Is It Possible to Get Google Sitelinks Without Linkbuilding?
You don't have to be a professional SEO to write an amazing, top traffic blog. Some of the best and most popular blogs out there use multiple pages, blog series or related blog topics in order to keep traffic on the blog. Simply put, great content will always attract huge numbers of visitors and keep a site ranked highly in search whether you understand in-depth SEO tactics or not.
If you have a longer blog post, splitting it up into multiple pages may help your blog's visibility in search. Most likely, traffic to other pages on your blog will come from internal links. If you write a blog post that's longer than 3,000 words, your best option is to split it up into multiple pages.
In addition, you may be able to increase your ranking by utilizing a multiple page blog posts. These are some tips to improving SEO with longer blog posts, multiple pages and blog series.
When you break up an article into multiple pages, you can target different keywords per page and also help your optimization for search with those keywords. You don't have to place all of your keywords on a single page, which means you can spread your keywords throughout the content without worrying about the consequences of stuffing your blog post.
In addition, more users will click through your first post to see the other pages and will more than likely engage with each of your pages. However, multiple pages also have some issues.
One con of a multiple page post for SEO is that people will more than likely just link to the first page of the post. If you have something really blog-worthy or links on other pages, they may not be seen because only the first page is linked. All the link juice stays on the first page.
Another problem with multiple page blog posts is that content is typically slim on the subsequent pages. You can't add too many keywords or optimize your content for multiple pages if you only have 100 words per page.
However, slide blog posts can be very popular and rank well just on their own while also including internal and external links.
In many popular blogs, you will see a blog series like "Favorite Mexican Dinner Night Recipes Volume 1 or "Top Strategies for Email Marketing: Beginner." You can see how these blog series will develop into a multi-part post series that continuously expands upon information. There are several uses for blog series with SEO.
If you have written a blog post that's 2,000 words or more, you should consider breaking it up into a blog series. This allows you to focus on great content that will intrigue readers and then also get readers to click through your blog, which treats them to a longer stay on your site.
The key is to link to the next blog post at the top and bottom of the post. You can also use the "related topics" links at the bottom of your post to allow readers to skip to a part of the series that they prefer to read.
You can create separate keyword lists for each blog post series allowing each post to rank on its own. You don't have to keyword stuff any of the content because you have plenty of content written to spread out your images, links and keywords.
You can plan blog post series for weeks giving you an easy post at least twice a month with a subject that you know is already popular with your readers. The main point is that you should focus on blog post series that have a lot of traffic. Tracking the traffic and comments on your blog post series is important to understand what topics to go forward with in the future.
Videos have become the most important feature of any blog. If you have a blog post series, you can partner it up with a video series. This gives your site and post more visibility while also increasing the chances that it will be shared.
A blog post series is a great way to break up content and make your blog easier to read. Since these are single posts, you can still link to them and use separate keyword lists to drive your SEO strategy.
In addition, if you have multiple pages with a blog post, you can also use graphics to link to the next part of the series or the second page. You can add titles for images and links with this strategy. It also grabs the attention of your reader and lets them know where to find the rest of the content.
In general, most professional SEOs still recommend single post over a multi-page post. Typically people only read the first page of the post. Since readership dilutes for each page of a post, it's difficult to rely on a multi-page post for SEO. Single page posts are more searchable and can be printed easily, which is especially good if you are writing a how-to or guide.
If you do have a longer single post, you don't have to break it up into pages. You can use headings, images and blockquotes to make it easier to read.
Ideally, there should be a plugin that allows pages to be viewed as one page for SEO and multiple pages for easy reading. Blog post series are likely the best way to break up longer content since you are still using a single post method, and you can include more internal links. Whether you use single or multi-page posts, great content always seems to win higher rankings and will perform well in search. Sharing your post through social networks and sending it to your subscribers will likely be the main source of traffic.

Famous Ancestors
By Brooke Horowitch '16 Associate Editor Feb 25, 2015
South Carolina politician John C. Calhoun and General Joseph Hooker played critical roles in 19th-century America. In addition, both are Deerfield community members' distant uncles. Science teacher Rich Calhoun and Serena Ainslie '16 reflected on their ancestors' work.
Rachel Yao
Born in 1782, John Caldwell Calhoun long served as a South Carolina senator. Over the course of his career, he became increasingly preoccupied with states' rights and maintaining slavery.
Calhoun served as vice president from 1824 to 1832, under both James Monroe and Andrew Jackson. His extreme views and dissenting actions isolated him in the White House. Notably, in 1828, he composed the South Carolina Exposition and Protest, which asserted states' rights to veto or nullify federal laws and paved the way for future secessionist arguments. Mr. Calhoun noted that John Calhoun's work "shaped modern conservative thought."
Mr. Calhoun commented, "John C. defended slavery, even at the cost of breaking the U.S., which I strongly disagree with."
One trait did endure across generations, however. Mr. Calhoun added, "John C. was a great orator, and ranting is a family characteristic." He then quipped, "As the Deerfield Young Republicans' advisor, I am very proud of John C.'s work, but when I lead the Young Democrats, I am ashamed."
Joseph Hooker, born in 1814, fought during the Seminole and Mexican-American Wars after graduating from West Point. He is best known for serving as a major general during the Civil War. He commanded units under George McClellan, rallying the Army of the Potomac during the Battle of Williamsburg and Seven Days Battles. Simultaneously, however, he drank, gambled, and even popularized the term "hooker."
Ainslie elucidated, "Even though Hooker was a great soldier, he did have a 'dark side.' He was known for having prostitutes at his parties; and when he and his men would conquer southern towns, the southern belles would follow him and his men from one camp to another. Apparently, the term 'hooker' had already been created because prostitutes would hang out around ports, where fish were 'hooked,' but Hooker was the one who made the term popular."
In January 1863, President Lincoln promoted Hooker to Army of the Potomac Commander. Appreciated by his subordinates, the general developed medical aid systems, rations, and furlough lengths. He also established an amnesty policy for deserters. But after a stunning defeat at the Battle of Chancellorsville, Hooker resigned, then assisted in the Western theater and Atlanta campaigns.
Ainslie remarked upon her great, great, great uncle's career, "Hooker played a crucial role in American history because of his contributions to the Army of the Potomac. He improved the medical care and food supply. He didn't just win battles, but he helped to improve the lives of soldiers who were fighting for a worthy cause. Hooker also led Lincoln's funeral procession."


Sometimes, technology unintentionally becomes a part of world politics. The same happened to Apple lately. Due to China's dominant approach towards Taiwan, several tech companies have modified their policies to ensure not to cause a rift with the country. However, Apple seems to have unknowingly gone the extra mile with some buggy code. A researcher discovered how a Taiwan iOS bug crashed iPhones and iPads after typing 'Taiwan' or using Taiwanese flag emoji.
A few days ago, a security researcher discovered an interesting bug in iOS. According to his observation, typing "Taiwan" or using the Taiwanese flag emoji made some iOS devices crash. He explained this Taiwan iOS bug as a "denial of service" (DoS) flaw.
The researcher Patrick Wardle discovered this flaw in an iPhone 7 running iOS 11.3. He explained his findings in a blog post on July 10, 2018. According to him, the bug was due to some "China-friendly" code for devices having China as the location.
According to Patrick Wardle, considering the China-Taiwan controversy, Apple has created a specialized code that would simply censor Taiwan's mention if the device location is set to China. The moment the device location is changed, these codes will work normally.
The researcher notified Apple of his discovery since he wasn't sure if other iOS versions also had this bug. After being notified, Apple patched the vulnerability (assigned CVE-2018-4290) in the iOS 11.4.1. So the users will not face any iPhone or iPad crashes if they ever want to mention Taiwan in their conversations.
This is not the first time that an iOS bug has had trouble with user input. Last year, a weird bug in iOS 11 irritated users as it autocorrected the letter 'I' with 'A' with a symbol.
