FCC Net Neutrality Vote Set for Feb. 26
By: Todd R. Weiss | January 08, 2015
An FCC vote on proposed new net neutrality rules will be held on Feb. 26, according to FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler, who announced the move during an appearance at the Consumer Electronics Show.
New net neutrality rules that could view Internet service providers as utilities under federal laws will be voted upon by the Federal Communications Commission on Feb. 26, according to public comments made by the FCC's chairman on Jan. 7 at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.
In his appearance at CES, Wheeler "appeared to show he leaned toward regulating Internet service providers (ISPs) more strictly under Title II of the U.S. communications law," which is an approach also supported by President Barack Obama, according to a Jan. 8 story by Reuters.
"The FCC has been working for nearly a year on new rules governing how ISPs manage Web traffic on their networks, and Wheeler said he will share his latest proposal with fellow commissioners on Feb. 5 and hold the vote on final regulations on Feb. 26," reported Reuters.
Wheeler said the proposals will not allow ISPs to block or slow down Websites and won't allow content companies to pay premium rights for faster access for their content, the story said. "We're going to propose rules that say that no blocking [is allowed], no throttling, no paid prioritization," Wheeler said, according to the story.

Net neutrality, the idea that the Internet should be accessible to everyone equally without provisions for fast lanes for those willing to pay extra, has been a stated policy of Obama since he ran for the presidency and was elected to his first term in 2008.
The issue of net neutrality has been a hotbed for several years, with proponents and opponents arguing their positions and bashing the opposition verbally in public forums and discussions.
In September, the FCC announced that it had received a record 3 million comments about proposed rules for net neutrality by a Sept. 15 deadline.
Meanwhile, a battle with Congress on the issue could be coming in the near future, warned a recent report by Politico. In a Dec. 29 story, Politico said that the newly elected, Republican-led Congress could be moving to fight Obama and the FCC on net neutrality proposals that are being readied for reviews.
"The Federal Communications Commission is racing to write rules that require Internet service providers to treat all Web traffic equally, and many expect the agency will follow President Barack Obama's call to treat broadband service like a utility," according to the Politico report. "Some GOP members are planning to use their soon-to-be majority status to knock down the FCC's net neutrality actions, perhaps even before any rules are announced in early 2015. And the growing tensions threaten to spill over into larger policy debates, as Congress takes on the complex process of updating the nation's central communications laws."
In November 2014, it appeared that Wheeler and Obama had some differences of opinion about net neutrality, according to an earlier eWEEK story. Instead of Obama's more strongly worded proposal, Wheeler preferred a more subtle approach that would also address the concerns of the companies that provide Internet access to millions of Americans. Obama had earlier said that he wanted to see the FCC adopt Title II as a way to include ISPs in existing neutrality regulations. Title II refers to the Communications Act, which gives the FCC the power to regulate communications in the United States. Title II was originally intended to make sure that telephone companies provided service to anyone in their coverage area.
In October 2014, officials from AT&T, Comcast and Verizon told U.S. leaders that they do not plan to offer faster Internet access, or so-called "fast lanes," to content producers who are willing to pay more to get their messages out in front of competitors' transmissions, according to an earlier eWEEK story.

Half of Older Dialysis Patients Die Within a Year, Study Finds
By Robert Preidt
THURSDAY, April 25, 2019 (HealthDay News) -- The death rate for older Americans receiving dialysis for kidney failure may be nearly twice as high as widely thought, according to a new report.
For the study, researchers looked at 391 Medicare patients, aged 65 and older, who started dialysis, in which a machine is used to remove toxins from the blood.
Nearly 23% of the patients died within a month of starting dialysis; nearly 45% died within six months; and nearly 55% died within a year, the investigators found.
The highest death rates were among patients older than 85; those who had four or more major health problems in addition to kidney failure; those who started dialysis in the hospital instead of on an outpatient basis; and those who, even before starting dialysis, required help with tasks of daily living such as eating or bathing.
The study was published April 22 in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine.
The death rates found in the study were nearly double those cited in federal government statistics. This suggests doctors and patients may be basing treatment decisions on overly optimistic survival estimates, the researchers said.
"Dialysis can seem like a magical cure for someone whose kidneys are failing, but our finding that half of older adults die within the first year after starting dialysis is sobering," said lead author Melissa Wachterman. She is an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, in Boston.
"When time is short, how you spend that time becomes even more important. Spending the better part of three days a week doing dialysis may not be the right choice for everyone, and people should factor this new evidence into their decisions," Wachterman said in a school news release.
In the United States, more than 120,000 people started dialysis in 2015, half of them over age 65. Dialysis keeps some people alive until they receive a kidney transplant, but most dialysis patients, particularly older ones, don't get transplants.
Dialysis is not the only option for kidney failure patients. A more conservative approach involves providing medications and other therapies to relieve the disease symptoms, without dialysis, Wachterman said.
Patients generally don't live as long with this approach, but it spares them the burden and potential harms of dialysis, according to the researchers.
"The goal in difficult clinical situations like this is shared decision-making, where patients and clinicians can work together to make choices that best balance patients' goals and values with the objective medical evidence," Wachterman said.
She suggested that doctors may have been painting "an overly rosy picture" about the prospects for some patients considering dialysis.
"We hope this new evidence can help patients and families cope with what lies ahead and empower them to make informed treatment decisions that are most aligned with their goals and preferences," she said in the news release.
The U.S. National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases has more on treatment for kidney failure.

New Griso selling for $8k?!
Discussion in 'Griso-Bella Chat & Tech' started by jdub, Apr 3, 2019.
I have no need (or room) for yet another bike, but a brand new Griso for $8k seems like a great deal, and possibly the last chance to get an air cooled big Guzzi motor. A couple of color choices too if you look at their other locations.
possibly the last chance to get an air cooled big Guzzi motor.
I've seen a few on ebay also.
There was an Audace for a little over 8k with low mileage.
Mondo Endo Just got it firing!
Euro cycle has multiple dealers offering the same deal. While the sale price is cheap the fee's bring it back up to more than what others are selling it out the door for. I bought my 17 in Feb from GP in San Diego for $8989. no fees other than tax and license so about $9700 and change OTD which was a few hundred less than the $7999. at Euro cycle with their added fee's. Either way a fantastic deal on a damn awesome bike. I paid much more for my first Griso back in 2012.
Mondo, do you know what the fees ended up being at Euro Cycle?
Around $1200. if I remember correctly, then tax and license. This is based on my shopping and purchase in Feb of this year.
Midnite Tuned and Synch'ed GT Site Contributor!
I was lured into a test ride at my local Eurocycle thinking that they'd be motivated to move Grisos for not much more than list. Both Sonoma (local) and Reno both wanted the equivalent of $10,200 with taxes (wouldn't budge) which I couldn't stomach. Ended up rolling the dice on a rollerized 2012 from AF1 with Agostini exhaust, reflashed ECU, oem panniers and some other nice bits. $6300 shipped with a fresh tune and new tires.
I would've walked too. Not that $10,200 is a bad deal, but because it is so much higher than advertised. Let me guess - a bunch of dealer prep fees?
Yep: non-negotiable dealer fees. I was prepared to pay up to $9k, but neither would give an inch. Sonoma told me that they have buyers in Europe who will pay asking price, but they appear to have moved only one of the 8 or so they had in stock over a month ago.
I'm just so highly amazed of how limited the interest is in these battleproof Italian motor cycles. But its unique quality is an added richness to the brands mystique.
The desirableness of the bike is not at issue, nor its worth. If two dealers sell the bike for about the same price, I'm going with the one who doesn't employ a fake advertised price to lure unsuspecting customers.
Midnite and Mayakovski like this.
Amen! Nothing pissesmeoff more than deceptive business practices.
MarkyMark Just got it firing!
I'm going to do a shout out to Spirit Motorcycles down in San Jose CA. They sold me my 2017 for $8k plus only tax and title. A little bit of negotiating but absolutely no dealer fees.
Now that's more like it! Was this recent?
A month ago. Jonathan was the manager who I worked with. He's a straight shooter. I got both the extended warranty and a wheel warranty from them. The wheel warranty was possibly not a ton of value, but it was cheap.... and they wanted it to have some profit. Still, for under $10.5, couldn't pass it up. Love the bike. Ready for my break in maintenance.
How much was the warranty? $8k plus tax and license should be way less than $10.5. Like i said here before $8989. plus tax and license equals $9700. otd here in So Ca.
Sorry for the delay, had to dig up my purchase docs. So rough numbers are: Total purchase price $10300.
Ride it like you stole it because you did.

David Scott – Vice-President
Rich Carson – Treasurer
Doug Jones – Activities Committee Chairman
Doug Lambert- House Committee Chairman
Norm Leach – Membership Committee Chairman
Brian Maunder – Speakers Committee Chairman
Tony Weall – Member Services Chairman
Norm Weitzel – Historian/Archivist

REGRETS: Wayne Audette
President Jon Collins called the meeting to order at 9:30 am. Ken Yule acted as secretary. A quorum of members being present, the President declared the meeting properly constituted for the transaction of business.
1. Minutes of Meeting of October 1, 2013
UPON MOTION (Jack Zaleski, Doug Lambert) the Minutes of the Board of Directors Meeting of October 1, 2013 were approved as circulated.
2. Presidents' Luncheon
Discussion ensued around Jon Collins' report of the low attendance: 76 members and 36 guests. It was decided that David Scott and Brian Maunder will try to confirm a speaker who will be a draw, and the Committee will decide at the February meeting whether or not to hold the luncheon this year.
3. Finalization of Meeting Dates
The Committee agreed to the 2014 dates proposed by David Scott. The regular meeting dates for 2014 will be published in the January Newsletter. The December Board of Directors meeting will be at the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club.
4. Strategic Plan Review
David Scott will chair the committee to review the Strategic Plan. Jon Collins and Norm Leach agreed to serve. Other club members may be invited. The first meeting will probably be in early January.
5. Probus Club of Vancouver West
Jon Collins advised that this new club for both men and women has 25 committed members and will hold an information meeting in January and its first monthly meeting in the morning of the second Thursday in February at Marine Drive Golf Club.
UPON MOTION (Norm Leach, David Scott) the Committee agreed to grant a one year interest free loan of $ 500 to the Probus Club of Vancouver West.
Rich Carson presented the financial report to November 30. Even with the dues reduction to $60 this year he expects we will be close to breaking even over the course of the fiscal year. It appears the annual increase in cash balance is being arrested.
7. Secretary's Report
Ken Yule reported that the Club's Annual Report has been filed with the Registrar of Companies and the bylaw amendments have been forwarded for approval. They become effective only upon approval, which is anticipated to occur in early January.
8. Speakers Committee
Brian Maunder advised that speakers are confirmed through July.
9. Activities Committee
Doug Jones reported that a visit to a vintage car and antique music machine collection in Richmond is planned for late March. A trip to Emily Carr University of Art and Design on Granville Island with lunch at the nearby Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts in May will likely be the second outing. The Activities Committee will explore an afternoon baseball game package which will follow the June speakers, whose subject is the Vancouver Canadians.
10. Membership Committee
Norm Leach advised that the membership renewals have gone well, and that the present waitlist for new members is until March. On the website the link "Members Only" will be changed to "Membership" to assist prospective members.
11. House Committee
Doug Lambert will book the Planetarium for the dates agreed (see item 3). Specifically, he will reserve October 14 (in case there is no Presidents' Luncheon) and Wednesday November 12.
The coffee and parking arrangements are proceeding well.
A number of members have reported losing their badges, which are being replaced. It takes 2-3 weeks for the badges to be made, and we receive no volume discount; the Membership Committee will forward the applicants list to Doug, with a view to presenting the badges with the pins at the welcoming.
The Committee decided not to try to track the attendance of individual members. Jack Zaleski will obtain a history of the total attendance numbers, which will be discussed at the February Board of Directors Meeting.
12. Website Committee
Jack Zaleski advised that the information on the website home page has been improved, and the executive roster expanded to include the introducer and seconder of each member. He is working on further improvements to ease access, and invites comments and suggestions.
Hugh Lindsay and Tony Weall are available to make edits to the website in Jack's absence.
13. Member Services
Tony Weall will forward the past car pooling information to Doug Jones for the March activity.
The matter of Past President Greeters was discussed. The Strategic Plan Review will examine it. The concept of a rotating single Past President Greeter at regular meetings has not been working.
14. Newsletter
Roy Williams advised that Peter Scott is the official publisher of the excellent December newsletter. Roy will continue as the editor until September, when Peter will replace him. The Committee agreed that Peter should be reimbursed for his out of pocket expenses.
Barb Kemp is retiring after 15 years and 180 newsletters, but will be available as backup. UPON MOTION (Tony Weall, Brian Maunder) the Committee approved a Christmas and farewell gift to Barb of $ 500, and to invite her to and recognize her at the next Presidents' Luncheon.
15. Historian/Archivist
Norm Weitzel reported that the club's history is nearing completion, and will be a nostalgia kick. He must now convert his notes to a readable form; several members offered to assist. The Committee agreed to hiring a typist if necessary.
16. New Business
Rich Carson will obtain the necessary papers from Jon Collins and submit the club's annual dues for 365 members to Probus Canada.
17. Next Meeting
The next meeting of the Board of Directors will be at the Vancouver Lawn Tennis and Badminton Club, 1630 West 16th Avenue, Vancouver, B.C. on February 4, 2014 at 9:30 am.

Q: Can anyone point me to good guides on using django.contrib.sites for multiple views on the same database? [Warning - python noob]
I have read what I can find and got sites up and running with one "site" in the database. I'm not sure where to go from here. What is the right folder structure for the code for the second site? It's going to re-use models (I assume - DRY) so presumably needs to use the same app folders - but the documentation talks about it using different settings files. This is where I got a bit lost.
Secondarily, I'd love pointers to how to run the development server and how to run apache for multiple sites.
Thanks in advance.
Update: I am particularly interested where settings vary between sites - e.g. one uses authentication to place everything behind a login and the other doesn't. As per a conversation below, does that mean two separate projects? They are using the same models, so how do I follow DRY?
My actual situation is as follows:
example1.com is an in-house project management tool - it uses google apps authentication so you can't see any pages unless you are authenticated against the company google account.
I want to create example2.com which is a view over certain kinds of open tasks (created via example1.com) so that freelancers can see available jobs and claim them. They don't have google apps accounts and so example2.com is going to use different authentication.
Both share models (e.g. "projects", "jobs") and both need to read from the same database. What's the best way of achieving this in django? Sorry if this wasn't clear - I was trying to keep the question abstract but this is why I referred to different settings files in my original question.

A: Here's my preferred setup.
example1.com (with GA authentication) should be served by Apache (via mod_wsgi) and references some suite of Django Apps that use your only database.
example2.com should also be served by the the same Apache (via mod_wsgi) and references some suite of Django Apps that use your only database.
The example1.com is a "Location" in Apache that references an "/var/www/example1/example1.wsgi" file.  This file is associated with a specific example1/settings.py for example1.com's suite of applications and configuration.
The example2.com is a "Location" in Apache that references an "/var/www/example1/example2.wsgi" file.  This file is associated with a specific example2/settings.py for example2.com's suite of applications and configuration.
Some Django applications might be shared between the two locations.  Some applications might be specific to one location or the other.
The database is totally shared between the two locations.

Using Sites
The second site is built with the same code as the first site.  It's not a copy or a clone.  You have one group of applications that use one database.
The "site" is something users see.  The "site" is a consequence of how you fetch data and use templates to present things to users.  But it's all one project of applications.
The user-perceived "sites" only differ by one thing: the site key that you put into your models.
Often, you'll do things like use Apache to redirect different domain names to URL's with "site" keys.
If you're building multiple sites that do not share the same code, then you're just building a lot of applications, perhaps in different projects.
Specific use cases are here:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/contrib/sites/#how-django-uses-the-sites-framework

It's a hook for associating objects
  and functionality to particular Web
  sites, and it's a holding place for
  the domain names and "verbose" names
  of your Django-powered sites.

A: What you are trying to accomplish is not provided by django, but can be done by configuring your server. Here are examples of doing this with mod_wsgi or with mod_python
Though, this is somewhat advanced. I would recommend deploying a couple of simple django applications, and then trying this out.

Q: Onclick to add line input text clear - javascript I struggle with the issue of clearing the text input field when new line is added on click button. When I add number to input field and click on + button I want the added number in first line stays in input field but instead it clears. The solution is maybe very easy but as I am learning javascript right now I cannot find the reason why the field delete my inputs. Here is my code:
function Item(data) {

Object.assign(this, data)

this.getItemHtml = function () {
    const {itemNo, quantity} = this;

    return `

${this.itemNo++}

<input type="number" id="item-qty${itemNo}" required>

For other uses, see Tim Moore (disambiguation).
Tim Moore (December 9, 1887 – December 13, 1958) was an American vaudevillian and comic actor of the first half of the 20th century. He gained his greatest recognition in the starring role of George "Kingfish" Stevens in the CBS TV's The Amos 'n' Andy Show. He proudly stated, "I've made it a point never to tell a joke on stage that I couldn't tell in front of my mother."
Moore was born Harry Roscoe Moore in Rock Island, Illinois, one of 13 children of Harry and Cynthia Moore. His father was a night watchman at a brewery. Tim Moore dropped out of grammar school to work at odd jobs in town and even danced for pennies in the streets with his friend, Romeo Washburn.
In 1898, Moore and Washburn went into vaudeville in an act called "Cora Miskel and Her Gold Dust Twins." It was booked by agents and travelled through the United States and even Great Britain. By 1904, the act had performed with the Barnum & Bailey Circus. As Moore and Washburn grew older, the act became less effective and Miss Miskel sent them back to their parents in Rock Island. Shortly after this, Moore joined the medicine show of "Doctor Mick" (Charles S. Mick), who sold a patented quack remedy called Pru-ri-ta. Doctor Mick travelled through the Midwestern states, with songs and dances provided by Moore and four Kickapoo Indians. The young man also worked in a carnival sideshow and gave guided tours as a "native" tour guide in Hawaii.
Moore left Doctor Mick, first to become a stableboy and later a jockey. He also tried his hand as a boxer. He returned to performing about 1906, with a troupe of minstrels called "The Rabbit's Foot Company." By 1908, he was back in vaudeville and had met and married his first wife, Hester. They performed as a team, "The Moores - Tim & Hester", appearing in the United States and abroad. In 1910, the couple was part of an act called the Four Moores. They next performed together in "Georgia Sunflowers," a minstrel show that played the southern vaudeville circuit. The Moores drew glowing reviews, Hester for her singing and Tim for his comedy. By 1914, both Moores were co-stars of an act that was billed as Tim Moore and Tom Delaney & Co.. Tim played the tuba and Hester played drums as part of a band. Moore's own stock company was responsible for all aspects of it. The couple toured China, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, the Fiji Islands and Hawaii with a vaudeville troupe. The marriage ended in divorce in 1915, and in September, Moore married a vaudeville actress named Gertrude Brown. After more than a year on the road in vaudeville in the United States, the Hawaiian Islands, Australia and New Zealand, he returned to boxing as "Young Klondike", training in New Zealand. He fought there and in Australia, England, and Scotland. Before this, Moore fought as "Kid Klondike" in the US, with Jack Johnson and Sam Langford as some of his opponents. Moore also made his way into films by 1915, playing the part of an egotistical musician in His Inspiration. While Tim and Gertie were entertaining in New Zealand, a story in The Evening Post from May 28, 1917, went on to say, "Another "star" item will be that of Tim and Gertie Moore, who have earned a big reputation in America, and were booked for Fuller's direct from the well-known Orpheum circuit." Moore became well known for his one-man presentation of Uncle Tom's Cabin, where he would play the role of both Simon Legree and Uncle Tom, applying white chalk to half his face, and burnt cork to the other. Moore literally took his one man act into the street of San Jose, California, for the sale of War Stamps in 1918.
Having made $141,000 with his fists, in 1921 Moore and his wife returned to performing full-time in vaudeville. He formed his Chicago Follies troupe and was a favorite on the Theater Owners Bookers Association vaudeville circuit during the "Roaring Twenties" period. In 1923, Moore and his wife co-starred with Sandy Burns, Fannetta Burns, Walter Long, and Bobby Smart in a silent film comedy, His Great Chance, directed by Ben Strasser (North State Film Corp.). The following year, the Moores toured vaudeville together in "Aces and Queens". Subsequently, he went on tour as one of the stars of producer Edward E. Daley's "black and white musical comedy sensation", Rarin' to Go, for three seasons on the Columbia Burlesque Wheel (1925, 1926 and 1927 editions).
In June 1925, Tim Moore made his Broadway debut as the star of Lucky Sambo (based on "Aces and Queens'). However, the show closed after only a few performances. He was a success in burlesque in the mid 1920s with the hit show Rarin' to Go, followed by a return to vaudeville in 1927 with The Southland Revue. Moore wrote all of his own material and also did some writing for other performers; a Moore skit called, Not a Fit Night for Man nor Beast, was bought by W.C. Fields. He also did some writing for the radio show of the Two Black Crows comedy team. Moore was brought to New York to sign a writing contract but before this was done, Charles Mack of the team was killed in an auto accident, thus ending the act. Moore wrote sketches which became part of Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds" revues as well.
In 1928, Moore took time off from his vaudeville bookings to try his luck once more on the Great White Way – Broadway. This time he met with enormous success as the star comedian of Lew Leslie's hit musical comedy revue, the Blackbirds of 1928. Moore's co-stars were singers Adelaide Hall and Aida Ward and renowned tap dancer Bill "Bojangles" Robinson. The hit musical scored high in Paris and London as well as on the road throughout the states. In 1931, Moore and his then vaudeville straight man, Andrew Tribble, performed one of their funniest routines in Oscar Micheaux's first talking picture, The Darktown Revue. After a disagreement with Lew Leslie, Moore starred in two unsuccessful Broadway revues for other producers, Fast and Furious (1931), and The Blackberries of 1932. In the former, Moore wrote some of the skits along with his friend and co-star Zora Neale Hurston. Moore and fellow comedian "Morton" (i.e., Mantan Moreland) left the show in April 1932, refusing to perform what were termed "dirty lines". Needing each other, he and Leslie patched up their differences and Moore resumed his position as star comedian in the Blackbirds revues of 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937, and 1939. Politics played a role in the demise of the 1936 edition of the Blackbirds, causing the London run to be shut down. At the time the troupe was booked in the United Kingdom, King Edward VIII had just abdicated the British throne for love of American Wallis Simpson. There was a wave of anti-Americanism, with women picketing performances of the Blackbirds, carrying signs disparaging American women. In this last of the Blackbirds (1939), the principal singing star was Lena Horne. Moore's last Broadway show was Harlem Cavalcade (1942), produced by Ed Sullivan and Noble Sissle. During the late 1930s and early 1940s, Moore was one of the top comedians headlining at the Apollo Theater in Harlem. He also performed on radio as a dramatic actor.
In 1946, he starred as Bumpsie in the musical comedy film, Boy! What a Girl!. He made some appearances on Ed Sullivan's television show, Toast of the Town, and at the Apollo Theater; Moore then retired from show business. His wife Gertrude having died in 1934, Moore settled down with his third wife, Benzonia Davis Moore (1889–1956), in his home town of Rock Island, working the night shift at the Servus Rubber company, where boots and shoes were made. The couple was married in 1941 and initially made their home in Baltimore.
In 1950, Moore was recommended by his old vaudeville friend, Flournoy Miller, for the role of George "Kingfish" Stevens, a role which was voiced on radio by white actor Freeman Gosden. He was called out of retirement by the Columbia Broadcasting System to star in a new television adaptation of Amos 'n' Andy. As the radio series had developed in prior years, the scheming but henpecked Kingfish had become the central focus of most of the plots. In the television version, Moore played the character more broadly, with louder and more forceful delivery and a distinctive Georgia drawl, exaggerated for comic effect. Moore's Kingfish dominated the calmer and soft-spoken "Amos 'n' Andy" characters. Early in his career, Moore had developed a "con-man" routine he used for many years while in vaudeville; re-working some aspects of his old act produced the television character Kingfish.
Moore was very popular in the show and for the first time in his career became a national celebrity as well as the first African American to win stardom on television. When leaving a train in Albuquerque to buy some Native American pottery, the proprietor recognized him immediately, saying, "You, you Kingfish." This was the first time it happened in Moore's 52 years in show business. The show aired on prime-time TV from June 1951 to June 1953. Although quite popular, the series was eventually canceled due to complaints about ethnic stereotyping. Shortly after the television show left the air, there were plans to turn it into a vaudeville act in August 1953, with Moore, Williams, and Childress playing the same characters. It is not known if this was ever realized. After the series was canceled, it was shown in syndication until 1966 when increasing condemnation and pressure from the NAACP persuaded the show's owners (CBS, which still owns the copyrights) to withdraw it from further exhibition. It was resurrected in the early days of home videotape through public domain video dealers who had acquired episodes from collectors of used 16mm TV prints, although the copyright was never in the public domain. Illegally produced copies continue to be sold over the internet. The series itself would not be seen on a regular basis again until independent network Rejoice TV began re-airing episodes in 2012.
Many of the episodes revolved around Moore's Kingfish character, supported by Ernestine Wade as his level-headed, emotionally strong wife Sapphire, and Amanda Randolph as his openly aggressive mother-in-law, without the participation of Amos or Andy. These Kingfish-only episodes were originally produced as a spinoff series, The Adventures of Kingfish, which made its debut on CBS on January 4, 1955 but lasted only a few episodes. When the Amos 'n' Andy half-hours went into syndication, the Adventures of Kingfish shows were added to the syndicated package under the Amos 'n' Andy series title.
In 1956, Moore and his fellow cast mates Spencer Williams, Alvin Childress and Lillian Randolph with her choir, tried a tour of personal appearances as "The TV Stars of Amos 'n' Andy". The tour was halted by CBS, who viewed this as infringing on their exclusivity. Moore, and fellow cast members Williams, Childress and Lee, were able to perform for one night in 1957 in Windsor, Ontario, since legal action had not been taken against them in Canada.
Moore married his last wife Vivian Cravens (1912–1988) eight months after Benzonia's death; they had been performing as a comedy team for some time before marrying in 1957. This marriage won him considerable publicity thanks to the "Roast Beef Scandal" of January 1958. Moore fired a gunshot in his home because of his "mooching in-laws" (stepson, stepdaughter, and her husband) when he found that the last of the New Year's roast beef had been eaten by them. Moore related, "These free-loaders have eaten everything in the house. My wife protects them and every time we talk about it, we get into an argument. The argument got a little loud and the next thing I knew, the big boy (his stepson Hubbard) jumped out of his chair. I ran upstairs and got out my old pistol. I didn't want to hit anybody."
When the police arrived at the home, Moore, pistol still in his belt, told them, "I'm the old Kingfish, boys. I'm the one you want. I fired that shot. I didn't want to hit anyone, although I could have. Anyway, you should have seen the in-laws scatter when I fired that gun." The shot Moore fired hit the china cabinet; he was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon, with police calling him the "funniest prisoner in police history." Moore was initially ordered held on $1,000 bond; the judge changed his mind and released Moore on his own recognizance. Tim and his wife reconciled, with Vivian's pleading for the charges to be dropped. Moore entered a not guilty plea before the case went to trial on March 24. He received a $100 fine and a year's probation as his sentence.
When the story broke, local television personality and columnist Paul Coates invited Tim Moore to appear on his KTTV television show; Moore explained the situation in two guest appearances. Coates was promptly taken to task for Moore's appearances on his show by Stanley Robertson, a journalist for the African-American newspaper, the Los Angeles Sentinel, calling Moore "disgraceful" and labeling the two shows with Moore as "television's darkest hour." Coates replied to his critic in his January 29, 1958 Los Angeles Times column, calling Moore "a pretty wonderful, sincere man" and saying he strongly resented Robertson's attack on him.
Because of the "Roast Beef Scandal," Moore was once more in demand and even received a testimonial tribute dinner from the Friars Club of Beverly Hills, and appearing on The Tonight Show with Jack Paar. The publicity also won him an extended performance engagement at the legendary Mocambo nightclub.
Moore died at age 71 on December 13, 1958 of pulmonary tuberculosis in Los Angeles, four days after his birthday. There was no money to pay for his hospital care or for his funeral, Moore having received his final $65.00 residual payment from Amos 'n' Andy in January 1958. At one time, Moore had made $700 per week.
After a large funeral at Mt. Sinai Baptist Church, he was buried at Rosedale Cemetery. At the funeral service, 10,000 fans and mourners passed his open coffin; attendance was star-studded and included Groucho Marx, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Louis Armstrong, Tony Curtis, Sidney Poitier, Charlie Barnet, Noble Sissle, Erskine Hawkins, Louis Prima, Freeman F. Gosden, Charles Correll, Spencer Williams, Jr., Alvin Childress, Ernestine Wade, Amanda Randolph, Johnny Lee, Lillian Randolph, Sammy Davis, Jr., Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Andy Razaf, Clarence Muse, Roy Glenn, Mantan Moreland, Pigmeat Markham, Willie Bryant, Earl Grant. Sammy Davis, Jr. later related that Frank Sinatra organized the effort to pay Tim Moore's funeral expenses. Moore's grave remained unmarked from the time of his burial until 1983; fellow comedians Redd Foxx and George Kirby raised funds for a headstone. There is now one marking the graves of Moore and his wife, Vivian, who died in 1988.
Paying tribute to one of its favorite sons, the Rock Island Public Library held "Tim Moore Day" July 16, 2008. Moore's relatives in the area participated by sharing their memories of his life and work.
In spite of his achievement as the first major African American television star, Moore is still not honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Your last day to help protect the Great Australian Bight from international companies intending to drill for oil.
The Great Australian Bight is the expanse of water on the Southern Coast of Australia, spanning kilometres and kilometres of South Australia and Western Australia coastline. Boasting spectacular views and the habitat for countless species with a complex ecosystem.
The Bight is known for extremely fluctuating and wild waters. It's also the area that a number of companies have attempted to explore for oil. The current danger, is that Norwegian company, Equinor, are commencing plans to build a rig and exploring for oil in the Bight.
Right now, a lot of the approval process rests with an organisation called NOPSEMA – who have put out a document calling for public comment, which you can find here.
Whilst signing petitions doesn't always incite immediate action, this approval process is dependent on NOPSEMA who are using public comments as a major deciding factor, alongside existing environmental plans, on whether the oil drilling will proceed.
The deadline is 20th March so action must be immediately taken, the form asks for your opinion on the impact of oil drilling on the environment, so to make answers easier for you, we've compiled some points on the danger.
1) The waters of the Bight in which they will drill are deeper, more remote and more treacherous than the Gulf of Mexico for instance where the world's worst oil spill disaster occurred. It took 87 days to stop the oil spewing into the gulf and they sent 6800 boats to clean that spill – we don't have those boats readily available and much of our coastline is so remote it will never be able to be cleaned.
2) SA enjoys a clean green reputation in fact we perhaps take for granted just how pristine our waters are. An oil spill – and most of these occur during the exploration phase would be absolutely devastating to our coast and beaches – at worst it could spread from WA right around to Bondi and out past KI. Over 10,000 people are employed in the tourism and aquaculture industries – all these jobs would be at risk.
3) Equinor hasn't said how many ongoing jobs this oil rig would create, nor have they confirmed that it would be positions filled by Australians.
4) The Bight is home to a Southern Right Whale nursery – this is the home of around 3 dozen species of whale dolphins found in the region. Last year, scientists discovered dozens of new species in the Bight. 85% of all marine life found there is not seen anywhere else on earth so a disaster could wipe them out.
5) The risk to marine life is not just from an oil spill – day to day operations will see chemicals spill into the water and the noise from the rig and constant vessel traffic will harm many species – particularly those who rely on sonar for communication. Recently masses of dolphins were found dead in South America – the cause has been listed as noise.
6) The world is on the precipice of a climate crisis – exploring for fossil fuels is counterintuitive to the future employment climate. Equinor in fact has a large renewables division – we would be better welcoming them to South Australia to invest in this aspect of energy production.


Given that PLoS Biology has an Open Access policy which "…allow[s] anyone to download, reuse, reprint, modify, distribute, and/or copy articles in PLoS journals, so long as the original authors and source are cited", I HAVE to share these pictures with you.
(A) TEM image of cryo-fixed sectioned and stained extracellular Mimivirus particles revealing a star-shaped structure at a unique vertex.
(B) Cryo-TEM image of a whole vitrified fiber-less Mimivirus.
(C) SEM image of the star-shaped structure in a mature extracellular Mimivirus particle.
(D) Cryo-SEM of an immature, fiber-less particle.
(E) Tomographic slice of a mature intracellular Mimivirus particle captured at a late (12 h post infection) infection stage.
(F and G) Volume reconstruction of the particle shown in (E), revealing the presence of an outer (red) and inner (orange) capsid shells. The star-shaped structure is present in both shells but adopts partially open (dark, star-like region), and completely sealed configurations in the outer and inner shells, respectively.
(H) Superposition of the two shells in (F) and (G).
Scale bars, 100 nm in (A, B, D, and E), and 200 nm in (C).
The capsid (red) is opened at the stargate, allowing for fusion of the viral and phagosome membranes (light and dark blue, respectively), thus forming a star-shaped membrane conduit.
"It is becoming apparent to me – especially now as I do a 10-year revision of my Web teaching material – that there is a hitherto unsuspected level of complexity in the way big viruses get their genomes into cells – and back out into virions. Phycodnaviruses may emulate phages in dissolving their way through cell walls AND injecting DNA; now mimiviruses have special mechanisms for both loading virions and getting their DNA out.
And, of course, it has come to pass: Michael Rossmann's group at Purdue University and their collaborators have just published a paper entitled "Structural Studies of the Giant Mimivirus" , also in PLoS Biology, in which they explore in greater detail aspects of the structure, particularly as this is related to getting DNA out of the particles.
Their paper has the most stunning images and reconstructions, including images which show that the "starfish" shaped portal seems to be detachable – and that the unique stargate-associated 5-fold rotational axis of symmetry also has associated with it a depression in the inner nucleocapsid, which is undoubtedly associated with delivery of the DNA within.
(A–C) Surface-shaded rendering of cryoEM reconstruction of untreated Mimivirus. (A) Looking down the starfish-shaped feature associated vertex, (B) looking from one side, and (C) looking from the opposite side of the "starfish"-associated vertex.
(D) The "starfish"-associated vertex was removed to show the internal nucleocapsid with its concave surface facing the special vertex.
(E) Central slice of the reconstruction looking from the side of the particle showing the concave face of the nucleocapsid and the low density space beneath the "starfish"-associated vertex. A perfectly icosahedral particle is outlined in gray to show the extension of the unique vertex.
(F) Central slice of the reconstruction looking along the 5-fold axis from the starfish-shaped feature showing the enveloped nucleocapsid surrounded by a lower density space. The coloring is based on radial distance from the center of the virus. Gray is from 0 to 1,800 Å, red from 1,800 to 2,100 Å, and rainbow coloring from red to blue between 2,100 and 2,500 Å.
The scale bars in all panels represent 1,000 Å.
"The enveloped genome within the larger viral capsid, perhaps supported by fibers …, has some similarity to eukaryotic cells. In contrast, the external peptidoglycan component mimics bacterial cell walls …. In addition, the existence of a unique vertex in Mimivirus, possibly for genome delivery …, is reminiscent of tailed bacteriophages. These observations are consistent with other results …, implying that Mimiviruses and some other large icosahedral dsDNA viruses have gathered genes from eukaryotic, prokaryotic, as well as archaeal origins [my emphasis].
There are two important points here – one of which may be wrong.
"Our bioinformatics and comparative genomics study revealed a unique feature of Mimivirus among the eukaryotic domain [sic]: the presence of a highly conserved AAAATTGA motif in the immediate 5′ upstream region of 50% of its protein-encoding genes. By analogy with the known promoter structures of unicellular eukaryotes, amoebal organisms in particular, we propose that this motif corresponds to a TATA box-like core promoter element. This element, and its conservation, appears to be specific of the Mimivirus lineage and might correspond to an ancestral promoter structure predating the radiation of the eukaryotic kingdoms ….
Thus, it is possibly more likely that eukaryotes and possibly prokaryotes have garnered genes from mimi- and other viruses, rather than the converse!
The second point, given that they ARE a structural biology group, is much more likely: missing unique non-icosahedral capsid structures because of averaging could mean there is a whole world of specialised machinery in large DNA viruses which has simply been missed up till now.
I reiterate, watch this research space…. Anyone interested in mimivirus basics would also be well advised to look here.

Skyline rejects prison sentences against Egyptian activists and a lawyer and calls on the Egyptian authorities to stop political retaliation
STOCKHOLM - Skyline calls upon the Egyptian authorities to halt "political retaliation" against detained activists and opponents by issuing prison sentences without fair trials and exceeding the period of pretrial detention stipulated by law. It further stresses that their continued detention violates the Egyptian constitution and the rules of international law alike.
Tuesday, Skyline states that it views with great concern the continued issuance of prison sentences against activists and political opponents. In this regard, 20 December 2021, Writer and activist Alaa Abd El Fattah was sentenced on Monday to five years in prison, while lawyer Mohamed al-Baqer and blogger Mohamed "Oxygen" Ibrahim were sentenced to four years each
The trial, in which all three faced charges of publishing false news, took place in an emergency state security misdemeanors court, and cannot be appealed through the courts. The sentences were handed down after just three trial sessions and came despite defense lawyers not having access to the case files or an opportunity to present a defense. This violates of the provisions of the Egyptian Code of Criminal Procedure.
Accordingly, Skyline highlights that the Egyptian authorities had previously sentenced Abdel-Fattah to 5 years in prison on the ground of a case known as the "Shura Council case", then they re-arrested him in September 2019. These authorities also arrested the lawyer, "Mohamed Al-Baqer" while attending the investigations with Alaa, and he was included in the same case (1356 of 2019) to continue their pretrial detention for more than two years.
Dr. Laila Soueif, a lecturer at Cairo University, and the mother of the detained activist, Alaa Abdel-Fattah, said in an article in the American newspaper "The New York Times" last Friday, that "her son is being held accountable for being one of the youths of the Egyptian revolution in 2011." She added, "My son is one of tens of thousands of political prisoners in Egypt. He has been in prison for more than seven years - through various governments - with little hope of getting him out. His crime is that - like millions of young people in Egypt and abroad - he believed that another reatlty is possible to happen and he dares to make change."
For its part, Skyline stresses that what happened with the activist "Alaa Abdel-Fattah", the human rights lawyer "Mohamed Al-Baqer" and the activist "Mohamed Ibrahim" clearly violates the provisions of the Egyptian Constitution, especially Article 54. This Article affirms that "Personal freedom is a natural right, shall be protected and may not be infringed upon. Except for the case of being caught in flagrante delicto, it is not permissible to arrest, search, detain, or restrict the freedom of anyone in any way except by virtue of a reasoned judicial order that was required in the context of an investigation." The same article also emphasizes that "Every person whose freedom is restricted shall be immediately notified of the reasons therefore; shall be informed of his/her rights in writing; shall be immediately enabled to contact his/her relatives and lawyer; and shall be brought before the investigation authority within twenty-four (24) hours as of the time of restricting his/her freedom.
Skyline concludes its statement by calling on the Egyptian authorities to immediately and unconditionally release the activists and the Egyptian lawyer, stop all violations of their basic rights, and work to enable individuals to live without threat or prosecution. It further stresses the it is important that international bodies led by the United Nations and the European Parliament take action in order to pressure the Egyptian authorities to stop their retaliatory practices and put an end to the continued detention of opponents and political and human rights activists.

How Italy's love for soccer turned to hate, and its stadiums became fascist circuses.
I've officially seen it all now: Elephants playing soccer in Nepal.
Highlight of the day
Author: John Osborn John Osborn is currently writing a novel where soccer is a plot device. He blogs at JohnnyOstentatious.com about music, books, and TV.
Interesting comment from Will Parchman via Twitter: "Whatever happens with Pulisic at Chelsea, America's insistence upon ignoring FIFA rules is robbing PA Classics, the club that developed Pulisic, of about $730K in solidarity payments off the transfer fee. Tragic."
Imagine what that club could do with $730,000. How many years would that fund operations? How many low-income kids could it subsidize?
Love reading the idiotic replies on twitter that PA Classics wouldn't desrerve it as they are pay to play. The only places that are not pay to play a mls academies and colleges. Clubs are supposed to be able to see a future that hasn't arrived yet and operate at a loss for 15 years.
Yes, perhaps they wouldn't need to be pay to play with an extra $730,000.
All4U says:
jaykoz3 says:
Does PA Classics have a professional team it's players can go to?
Oh that's right, they don't. Which is exactly why the Pay to Play youth clubs don't receive payments. Imagine what your day care/nanny/babysitter could do with all of the compensation payments from your employers when you change jobs/careers…..
Compensation/solidarity payments were put in place to prevent bigger professional clubs from poaching all of the talent from the smaller professional clubs.
this is the correct take
The point is not to claim that PA Classics deserves payment now. They don't. The point is that instituting the FIFA standard here would create a market incentive for clubs to find and develop talented players. Which means it would be worth it to fund training for kids who otherwise couldn't afford it. This is why MLS is now in favor. They have clubs putting money into player development and some of those players are heading off to Germany for free.
The daycare/nanny/babysitter argument is just nonsense. Anyone can be a baby sitter, not everyone can teach your kid to be good enough to make compensation/solidarity payments. Now if the nanny taught your kid multiple languages, and learning skills so that your kid can go to college at age 12, then you may have a point. But if a nanny could do that I'm sure they'd be making more than $10 /hr.
Also why are people against this? How does it effect you in the slightest? Getting upset over it seems a bit odd.
el grunon Pachyderm says:
In my opinion the full expression of training and compensation can only come from an open system of pro/rel… where every club has a pipeline to a first team which generates revenue beyond operating costs and the dollars a DOC pockets. To do this though, puts the game in the hands of club soccer and the clubs' investors and not the few Gatekeepers who dictate policy and reap ungodly profits while parroting a line of we are not ready. Part of the problem is there are only a handful of first teams in US Soccer.
Forced scarcity and 'all that jazz.'
happy hew year!
overpaying for Pulisic. good for him.
As someone who travels fro big tourneys, the beer pricing will be what: $12–$14 like everywhere else? just hope they bring enough. i'm thinking of doing that one.
SilverRey says:
Good news everyone! The fact that the Union doesn't spend any money on players doesn't have any correlation to winning the Supporter's Shield or MLS Cup:
https://www.epluribusloonum.com/2018/12/31/18156934/part-one-soccer-as-a-business-major-league-soccer-payroll-performance-analysis-soccernomics
Ok, so the next question is – if it's not money that wins then what is it?
Hopefully the answer is Tanner!
I honestly couldn't make heads or tails out of these pieces. I don't even understand how MLS spending is something you can analyze when there are layers upon layers of artifice in terms of allocation funds and salary caps and Generation Adidas rules, etc. On top of that, MLS teams don't play balanced schedules. And then there are the deals, transfer fees, etc. that are "undisclosed as per league policy."
I'm glad someone commented on this. The logic behind the author's argument is flawed. He uses only salary data and does not take into account transfer fees, which are a significant portion of player spending. For example, last year Atlanta had Salaries of $11.6M but also had annualized transfer fees of $7.5M. Ditto LAFC, $14.1M in Salaries and $5.3M in annualized transfer fees. It's pro sports. Quality matters over anything else. Coaching and tactics can only go so far. (As an aside, Union were 19th in total spending, finished 11th in total points).
CPfeif says:
The author's argument is based on one of the conclusions in Soccernomics by Kuper and Szymanski that determined, using economic-based analysis, that the variable that trended most closely with league position was player salaries, not considering or including transfer fees.
I have some other questions on the validity of the conclusions of the author, but the logic behind the analysis is based on an identical analysis by someone who has been called a "leading sports economist".
Zizouisgod says:
Think about how long it will be until the Union play a meaningful match again and then remember that starting this year, that layoff in the future will likely be at least two weeks longer.
It is an issue. Unless you're a full on Kool Aide drinker.
el grunon says:
Boy this move for Christian. It is only good if the young man plays once the loan back to BVB is over. For my liking, I'm thinking a transfer to mid major club where he never leaves the field… maybe that's Chelsea's plan as well.
John O'Donnell says:
Obviously Will Parchman isn't really being totally forthcoming with the subject of training fees and how we got here. Treating the situation like it's easily rectified and the system should just be like any other is just wishful thinking for a complex problem. As it stands now it's not MLS or USSF that's the problem but MLSPA.
What I can't understand is how a player pays to play and if he makes it the club should benefit in anyway. Imagine going to college and paying tuition only later to have the college benefit from your success. Usually it would be on Pulisic as an alumnus to make a donation or gift in his name, which I can't see a reason he still couldn't do.
Going forward, the rumor is that with the lawsuit by Crossfire soon to be ruled on, MLS is waiting before they change anything. MLS is now in favor since they have their own academies and would benefit as well. The sticking point is another lawsuit threatened by the MLSPA, so this will probably be a CBA issue as the current one runs out next year and something that will be on the negotiating table.
Isn't it the chicken/egg. How can I club be free to play if they don't get other compensation? Ok, to charge some but not others and then collect on those you didn't charge?
John P. O'Donnell Jr. says:
YNo it isn't. We already have the chicken. MLS teams are funding academies to play for free with the thought of benefiting the first team. Other clubs run a team and charge players, it's a business plain and simple. If you paid for your child's education, would you want the school to get a cut when he gets a good job or be reimbursed? Obviously if we want to transition from one to the other you need better solutions. Imagine every parent that paid a fee for their child getting a refund for spending money to keep said club running all these years till everyone it's paid back and the club can end pay to play once they can build a kitty to run the club going forward.
No it isn't. We already have the chicken. MLS teams are funding academies to play for free with the thought of benefiting the first team. Other clubs run a team and charge players, it's a business pain and simple. If you paid for your child's education, would you want the school to get a cut when he gets a good job or be reimbursed?

Police Suggest Saraki Stage-Managed Early-Morning Siege To His House
However, the Police has denied laying siege to Saraki's residence. Instead, it said the men spotted at the residence were those attached to him and his residence.
by SaharaReporters, New York Jul 24, 2018
The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has denied sending a detachment of its men to the residence of Bukola Saraki, the Senate President.
A detachment of security operatives had blocked Saraki's convoy at his Apo residence with a view to preventing it from leaving the house. But Saraki managed to drive himself See Also Breaking News BREAKING: Tension As Saraki Sneaks Self Into National Assembly In Rickety Vehicle 0 Comments 11 Months Ago to the National Assembly complex in a private vehicle.
He then announced that the residence of Ike Ekweremadu, his deputy, had also been besieged See Also Politics BREAKING: Police, DSS Lay Siege To The Homes Saraki, Ekweremadu 0 Comments 11 Months Ago my men of the Police, Department of State Services (DSS). That announcement appeared to have gained credence with the emergence of a letter from the EFCC to Ekweremadu, dated Tuesday and inviting him to appear See Also Breaking News BREAKING: EFCC Invites Ekweremadu Over Money Laundering 0 Comments 11 Months Ago at its office that same Tuesday, for alleged money laundering.
"The Inspector General of Police directed a thorough investigation to ascertain the facts in the episode," Jimoh Moshood, Force spokesman, said in a statement.
"The police personnel seen in pictures in the media were those in the convoy of the Senate President and others attached to him and his residence."
THE FULL STATEMENT
RE: INVITATION TO SEN. BUKOLA SARAKI, THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE, FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA ON THE CASE OF OFFA BANK ROBBERY AND GRUESOME MURDER OF MORE THAN 31 PERSONS AND SNATCHING OF 21 AK47 RIFLES ON THE 5TH OF APRIL, 2018.
NO POLICE PERSONNEL BLOCKADE THE RESIDENCE OF THE SENATE PRESIDENT, SEN. BUKOLA SARAKI TODAY, 24th JULY, 2018.
Further to the Press release from this Office early this morning on the above subject, where i mentioned that the Nigeria Police Force's attention was drawn to the innuendos in the early hours of today, 24th July, 2018, that some Police personnel were seen surrounding the residence of the Senate President in Abuja; the Force categorically stated that there was no authorised deployment of Police personnel to besiege the residence of the Senate President or his deputy as reported in the media. The police personnel seen in pictures in the media were those in the convoy of the Senate President and others attached to him and his residence.
2. However, the Inspector General of Police directed a thorough investigation to ascertain the facts in the episode.
3. In addition to the early statement of the Nigeria Police Force mentioned above, the Force hereby wishes to reiterate that no police personnel was sent to besiege, blockade the residence of the President of the Senate, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Sen. Bukola Saraki.
4. It is also absolutely untrue that the Senate President, Sen. Bukola Saraki was harassed, threatened or intimidated physically or otherwise by any Police personnel either from the Force Headquarters or any other Formation of the Force.
5. The Nigeria Police Force will not abdicate from its constitutional responsibilities of detection of crimes and criminalities, and will always treat crime as crime no matter who is involved. The Force remains focused and will not be distracted from carrying out a discrete and thorough investigation into the indictments of the Senate president, Sen. Bukola Saraki, from confessional statements of some of the Five (5) gang leaders arrested for their active participation in the Offa bank robbery and gruesome murder of more than 33 persons and snatching of 21 AK47 rifles on the 5th of April, 2018 by the gang leaders namely; Ayoade Akinnibosun, Ibukunle Ogunleye, Adeola Abraham, Salawudeen Azeez, Niyi Ogundiran arrested for direct involvement and active participation in the Offa Bank Robbery and the gruesome killing of THIRTY THREE (33) innocent persons. They also admitted and volunteered statements that they were political thugs of the Senate President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Sen. Bukola Saraki and the Executive Governor of Kwara State, Alh. Abdulfatah Ahmed. The Five (5) gang leaders further confessed during investigation that they are political thugs under the name Youth Liberation Movement a.k.a "Good Boys" admitted and confessed to have been sponsored with firearms, money and operational vehicles by the Senate President, Sen. Bukola Saraki and the Governor of Kwara State, Alh. Abdulfatah Ahmed.
6. These confessions were made before the media and the public on the 3rd of June, 2018. It is therefore, evidently clear that the Senate President, Sen. Bukola Saraki has case to answer, and it is consequent upon this that the Senate President, Sen. Bukola Saraki was invited to appear before the Investigation Team at Intelligence Response Team Office, Guzape Junction, Abuja today, 24th July, 2018 which he refused.
7. The members of the public are hereby implored to disregard and discountenance the report of the blockade of the residence, harassment and threat on his person in its entirety as untrue and misinforming.
Thank you and God bless

Anatidaephobia is defined as a pervasive, irrational fear that one is being watched by a duck. The anatidaephobic person fears that no matter where they are or what they are doing, a duck watches.
Anatidaephobia is derived from the Greek word "anatidae", meaning ducks, geese or swans and "phobos" meaning fear.
# April Fools Day True or False?
dissatisfaction with the world's existence.
an eternal sunset of what we are.
It's been one year and 6 days since the last post of this blog, although anyone reading the last post... 'well it is nearly Christmas' could be forgiven for thinking this just follows on from there, but the last post was dated the 3rd of December 2016, and today it's the 6th of January 2018.
Shortly after the last post my mother was taken ill and I was with her until she died on December 30th.
It was the ending of shall we say, not exactly a good year.
February started with my broken leg The last days of February in March our dog died, in April I was diagnosed with skin cancer, in June our God daughter's fiancé was killed, then her father, our friend, was diagnosed with cancer, and December brought my mother's death which brought responsibilities... the funeral wasn't until February... the house sale and dealing with solicitors dragged on until September.
Blogging seemed irrelevant... instagram on the other hand, with it's quick easy, post a photo and a couple of words style seemed to suit the mood of 2017 and it's easier for me, perhaps for a lot of other bloggers as well, as several blogs I'd read have stopped.
Hej, welcome to the woolly dog... friendly with a slightly dark sense of humour, a bit like me, hopefully you will find something here you like, a photograph, video, painting, mood boards of colours, music, or a tale of life in the village.
