2023 Presidency: Anyone from South, not just S-East, can contest — Osoba
Posted by KingdomKings on Jan 07, 2021 0
Chief Olusegun Osoba
FORMER governor of Ogun State, Chief Olusegun Osoba, has said it is the right of anyone in the Southern part of Nigeria to aspire to become the president of the country, ditching claims in some quarters that the South-East should succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
Osoba, who was a guest on ARISE News, said nobody from the South-East has approached him as a major stakeholder of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to lobby for the country's number one position, painting a veiled picture of unseriousness on the part of South-EastEnders to clinch the number one position of Nigeria.
He said: "As far as I am concerned nobody, and I say it categorically, has told me that the Igbo or the easterner wants to run for the presidency, all I read are on the pages of the newspaper.
"Nobody in the South-East has consulted me and I must say I am a reasonable elder at the party. Nobody from the South-East has contacted me to lobby or even say that we are interested.
"I recall, I was very strong in the campaign of MKO Abiola in 1992. We went around the whole of the east. He and I went to see Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe in his house, CC Onoh, Mbakwe, we went around the whole of the east to lobby them that we are interested, nobody from the east has contacted me."
There were claims that there was an agreement within the governing APC that since President Buhari, a northerner, would round off his second term in 2023, power should shift to the south.
A few months ago, one of the party's prominent members, Babatunde Fashola, the works and housing minister, said at the inception of the party seven years ago, there was an agreement that power should rotate between both regions and demanded that it should be respected.
He warned that it would be dangerous to abandon the agreement.
Osoba, however, told ARISE News that former governor of Lagos, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has the right to contest for the presidency in 2023 despite the South-West producing the president from 1999 to 2007, but noted that the agreement to shift the party's presidential ticket to the south was not zeroed down to an individual.
His words: "Of course, Bola Ahmed Tinubu as an individual has the right to put himself forward, we did not zero in on an individual. It's Bola Tinubu's right to put himself forward. My attitude is that we need to come together to speak with one voice and if we (the southwest) want to get the presidency, let us all ensure the southwest become a force to get the presidency.
"Zeroing in on any individual will destroy our effort, but Bola Tinubu, as an individual, has the right to pursue his own personal agenda."

"No.103, Flying Scotsman"
You may remember this locomotive from a blog a few years back. It started out in life as a bog standard 2012 edition Railroad Flying Scotsman model.
It's now in grey primer and currently in storage. Modifications included changing the bogie and driving wheels, smokebox door, chimney, addition of superheater headers and resin washout plugs on the boiler. Oh, and a Great Northern coal rail tender to boot. More on that at a later date though…
It does link in with this evening's modelling session, however.
I've bought another of the Railroad Flying Scotsman models, and am finally getting around to building one of the locomotives that no respectable LNER based layout should be without. It is tradition, after all, to include a model of the world famous Flying Scotsman on a model railway layout, however my comes with a twist on the theme. She will be apple green, but she won't be numbered 4472...
Since my new layout is set between the years 1947 and 1949, I needed my model of 4472 (or as she was then, no.103) to reflect her true condition. So bits and bobs from the Great British Locomotives series of models have been used to bring this Railroad model up to standard, in addition to a few other details.
The basic model was correct in so much that it was right hand drive, with the correct 180lb boiler, but I was not satisfied with a number of other details and set to work converting the model accordingly.
(Incidentally, and perhaps proving the interchangeability point, the chassis pictured was the same chassis which had been previously fitted with maroon A4 wheel sets and originally intended for going under a Great British Locomotives Mallard model, as seen in these pages).
So to begin with: the corridor tender has been swapped with a GBL Mallard model (which will become another working A4 Pacific - again, watch this space) to give my model of no.103 the correct non corridor, streamlined tender it requires.
The boiler doesn't require any modification, as Flying Scotsman retained her original 180lb boiler until 1949 when she swapped it for the 220lb A3 boiler type. The only thing missing at the minute from this picture are the superheater headers on the smokebox, which will be fitted in due course. The moulded handrails on the boiler have to go though, and they will!
I removed the original cab from the Railroad model (through a combination of hacking it about with pliers, scalpels, files and sandpaper) and fitted a GBL 4472's cab instead.
This has the correct shorter cut outs at the back, to match the later tender types, and also includes glazing which is a real improvement on the model's original cab. Moulded handrails all round though, but these have been removed and handrails will be fitted next week when the next batch of handrail knobs arrives.
Lastly, at the front end, the correct (shorter) pattern chimney has replaced the original tall chimney, and a resin cast of Hornby's super detail A3 smokebox doors has replaced the more plain Railroad version.
The white metal buffers are standard with those on Wolf of Badenoch, seen alongside for comparison.
So I've a few projects on the go at the minute, but if I am honest I hope to get this one done, at least physically, before the end of next week so that it can come with 60506 and a few other Pacifics "oop north" to visit a very special model railway layout…more on that in due course.

This is known as a Resurrection Plant (Myrothamnus flabellifolius) This plant is a Geophyte meaning that the plants have an underground storage organ (i.e like a potato).
This plant possess an extensive root system which extends into the crevices of the rocky slopes on which it grows. It usually forms large stands in shallow soil on sunny rocky hills or along cracks and crevices in rocks.
One can find pletny of these plants at Sigurwana on walk or game drive.
The leaves of the resurrection plant shrink and appear to be dead in the dry season, but miraculously turn green after exposure to water. This can even happen when the stems have been picked some time ago as you can see in the above pictures.

A: well you can try something like this. I've changed you class to menu for all menu elements, so you can use one function for all of them
JSFIDDLE
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $(".menu").on("click", function(){
        deactivateAll(this);
        toggle(this);
    });

    function deactivateAll(current) {
        $( "li" ).each(function( index, elem ){
            if (elem != current && $(elem).hasClass("active")) {
                toggle(elem);
            }
        });
    }

    function toggle(elem) {
        $(elem).find("ul").toggle ("slide", {direction: "right"}, "slow");
        $(elem).toggleClass("active");
    }
});

A: This works: (Fiddle)
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $(".menuabout").on("click", function(){
        reset();
        $(".subnav01").toggle ("slide", {direction: "right"}, "slow");
        $(this).toggleClass("active");
    });
    $(".menuproducts").on("click", function(){
        reset();
        $(".subnav02").toggle ("slide", {direction: "right"}, "slow");
        $(this).toggleClass("active");
    });
    function reset() {
        $("ul.nav li").removeClass("active");
        $("ul.nav li ul").hide();
    }
});

Also you could refactor your code a bit so that it doesn't repat so much. Adding more root navigation elements would mean copying your code every time :)

When setting up shop, it is never easy for one person to handle multiple jobs, which is why additional personnel improves the volume of business and increases the profit margins. It has been widely proven that division of labor is the best way to achieve success in any field. Let us deconstruct why teamwork is a proven necessity for any enterprise.
One person handling multiple roles reduces the pace and does nothing for the brand. However, groups of people handling fixed portfolios get the job done, without hand holding ensuring profitably and brand loyalty.
Hierarchy is downgraded as people work together in tandem and get the job done. The idea is to do away with rigidity and get down to basics. Once this is out of the way, the business will rake in revenue primarily because hierarchy goes out the door and division of labor is a force reckoner.
The junior staff has the opportunity to grow in the ranks with a more detailed portfolio as they bring their 'A' game to the workplace. The idea is to get the entire team together so that there is synergy due to an empowerment to get the job done without critique. As they accomplish the tasks, there is a feeling of camaraderie because of a team effort.
A good manager will realize the efforts of his staff, whereas a bad manager will constantly remind them of their faults. To achieve good teamwork, boosting the morale of employees is a must; otherwise, people lose their will and focus to do the job.
As the business gets going, organizing workshops within the confines of the office or outside the office at a retreat helps break down barriers among employees. It also helps everyone to pitch in together and learn the nuance of building morale and working towards implementing ideas to improve brand value.
To simplify the process – teamwork is a proven necessity in any enterprise. Sebastian Greenwood once quoted Henry Ford who said, "Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is a success." By following these simple steps, it is easy to figure out that teamwork brings in huge profit margins, period.
Setting up shop with a new business often takes a great deal of planning, gumption, creativity, knowledge and understanding the pulse of the industry. However, even when you have all of these facets in place, other areas also factor into running a successful business. Here are five key tips to raking in profits.
Having a robust plan in place is wonderful, but red tape can get you down. This is the case with brick and mortar companies, large enterprises and single entities. At this point, it is entirely your call if you are going to bribe someone under the table or stick with an ethical plan. The latter is much better, it may take longer to get the business up and running, but down the line, it is more feasible.
The main criterion for running a business is to have an expert in finances. Nothing can get as tricky as not filing your service returns on time. The penalties can take the Mickey out of you, and therefore, the right financial outlay plays huge dividends. Sebastian Greenwood once quoted Wayne Dyer who said, "Go for it now. The future is promised to no one." When you need to make a play, go with your gut and the profits will catapult.
Any good businessperson will tell you that while the optics may seem relevant, what really works is a tactical analysis of the enterprise. The right play will enable the brand to show promise in an otherwise dull market and may even have multiple takers to get started. Strategy denotes timing, precision, planning, and marketing prowess. Once these are in place, nothing should go wrong.
Social networking has no bounds and with the variety of tools available to everyone, the sky is practically the limit. The objective here is not to get too frivolous with the chatter, but to stick with the plan to promote the brand. Use the formula that Sebastian Greenwood did when he quoted Og Mandino who said, "Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later," this will help you achieve the impossible soon.
Establishing credibility is possible when there is a real address that people can contact, not just a website without a concrete address and contact number. Location is all about getting it right, based on the target market that you are approaching. If you are selling a product that is high end, the position should be in an upmarket area.
"It's not about ideas. It's about making ideas happen." – Sebastian Greenwood quotes Scott Belsky, co-founder of Behance.
A majority of start-up businesses stumble in their growth stage. Therefore, it is quite clear that the life of an entrepreneur is not a cakewalk. They need to be experts in number crunching, know how to chase deadlines and come up with innovative ideas for optimizing their businesses. Let's explore some of those practices, which an entrepreneur needs to avoid at all cost.
The majority of start-up entrepreneurs do not realize the importance of deadlines. In fact, a few of old-timers create incorrect examples by forming an impression in front of their peers that establishing deadlines is the equivalent to working under great pressure and stress.
Yet, a successful entrepreneur knows how to set up an effective method for making sure that the set deadlines are always adhered to. When short-term deadlines are set up, there could be an element of urgency. If entrepreneurs break down their projects, deliverables and business goals into smaller components, they can effectively function in various aspects of business in a logical sequence until the time they can be accomplished successfully.
If you have built your business or taking a lead in it, you need to wear multiple hats to maintain that ownership. For instance, you need to perform the roles of an innovator, a CEO, a leader, a financial manager, as well as a salesperson. At the same time, you may also look after routine tasks on a day-to-day basis. While initially, you may enjoy doing all these tasks, they will gradually start taking up the lion's share of your time and prevent you from pursuing your strategic business goals. In order to enhance their competitiveness in the market, a successful entrepreneur may choose the path of motivating their employees. The aim is to delegate a greater responsibility to the latter while embracing a higher level of entrepreneurial attitude. The end result is the tasks in hand getting finished within a timeline and without compromising on their quality. Thus, you should learn to delegate your business responsibility as an entrepreneur and start trusting your employees more.
One of the most incorrect ways to sabotage your business and your own self is to have a motion that you are a complete perfectionist. When you embrace the pressure of being a perfectionist, it can act as a big hindrance to your joy and creativity, therefore making your task tougher and longer than it actually is.

A sign depicting the perpetrator of the stabbing to death of Prince Joshua Avitto, at the Boulevard Housing project in East New York on June 3, 2014. (Samira Bouaou/Epoch Times)
Man Accused of Attacking Children Indicted for Murder
By Genevieve Belmaker, Epoch Times
June 11, 2014 Updated: July 18, 2015
Daniel St. Hubert, 27, the man accused of attacking two children last week in Brooklyn, was indicted on Wednesday in Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn. St. Hubert is accused of fatally stabbing Prince Joshua Avitto, 6, and seriously wounding Mikayla Capers, 7.
St. Hubert is accused of cornering Prince and Mikayla in a Brooklyn housing project elevator and stabbing them both multiple times with a steak knife. Police later used DNA from the discarded knife to trace St. Hubert.
He was indicted on charges that include second-degree murder, and faces from 50 years to life in prison if convicted. He was also indicted on one count of second-degree attempted murder, one count of first-degree assault, and one count each of third- and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
"These two innocent children were subjected to unimaginable violence and terror in that elevator," said Kings County District Attorney Kenneth P. Thompson in a statement. "We will now hold Daniel St. Hubert responsible for his cowardly, unmerciful, and inhumane acts against Prince Joshua Avitto and Mikayla Capers."
Prosecution in the case is being led by longtime homicide prosecutor Assistant District Attorney Patrick L. O'Connor. St. Hubert's attorney, civil attorney Edward Friedman, is also a veteran litigator with a sole-practitioner firm in Brooklyn.
No future court date in the case has been set yet.


The incendiary statement contained undeniably discriminatory language and has been widely viewed as a blatant example of bigotry.
Trump has since been lambasted by everyone from fellow presidential candidates to Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, also running for president, offered perhaps the bluntest and harshest criticism of Trump.
You know how you make America great again? Tell Donald Trump to go to hell.
Trump's campaign slogan is "Make America Great Again!"
Graham also described Trump as a "race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot," and the "[ISIS] man of the year." It's hard to disagree.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest went as far to say Trump's call to ban Muslims from entering the US "disqualifies him from serving as president."
Criticism of Trump and his habitually offensive rhetoric has hardly been limited to the US either.
Following Trump's call to ban Muslim immigration the US, over 200,000 people signed a petition accusing Trump of hate speech and calling on the British government to prohibit him from entering the UK.
The UK has banned entry to many individuals for hate speech. The same principles should apply to everyone who wishes to enter the UK. If the United Kingdom is to continue applying the 'unacceptable behaviour' criteria to those who wish to enter its borders, it must be fairly applied to the rich as well as poor, and the weak as well as powerful.
The UK parliament is required to consider for debate any petition that reaches over 100,000 signatures, according to TIME.
Indeed, it seems many in the UK are unhappy with Donald Trump, as famed author JK Rowling recently tweeted he's worse than Voldemort.
British Prime Minister David Cameron also described Trump's anti-Muslim rhetoric as "divisive, unhelpful and quite simply wrong."
It seems Trump will likely still be allowed to enter the UK, however, as UK Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne reportedly rejected the petition to bar his entry on Wednesday, The Guardian reports.
Still, the US should take note of how many across the world are offended by Trump and his Islamophobic sentiments.
Electing such a man could do irrevocable damage to America's international esteem and could arguably make the US a target for even more terror attacks.

Non-Fiction Author
May Sarton's Death: Cause, Place, Age, and More!
The non-fiction author May Sarton passed away at age 83, impressive.
A Belgian-American novelist, poet, and memoirist, she is best known for such non-fiction works as Plant Dreaming Deep and Journal of a Solitude. Her novels include Shadow of a Man and Faithful are the Wounds; some of her most notable poetry collections are Halfway to Silence and A Durable Fire.
She attended Cambridge High and Latin School in Massachusetts during the 1920s. As a teenager, she took theater classes but spent the majority of her time writing poetry.
Her first poetry collection, Encounter in April, was published in 1937.
How did May Sarton die?
Breast Cancer caused May Sarton's death in 1995.
YORK, Maine — May Sarton, 83, a prolific feminist poet and novelist whose life and work reflected strength and stoicism, died of breast cancer July 16 at a hospital here. She began her writing career as a poet, starting with sonnets published in Poetry magazine in 1929.
Information about the death of May Sarton
York, Maine, United States
"May we agree that private life is irrelevant? Multiple, mixed, ambiguous at best - out of it we try to fashion the crystal clear, the singular, the absolute, and that is what is relevant; that is what matters."
"True feeling justifies whatever it may cost."
"Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self."
"Self-respect is nothing to hide behind. When you need it most it isn't there."
"No partner in a love relationship... should feel that he has to give up an essential part of himself to make it viable."

Mark Beech's Death – What Happened?


man, do i need some words of wisdom! for 6 months i had been doing great. i logged my food religiously, stayed (mostly) within my calorie range. was usually within my nutritionist's guidelines for proteins, carbs and fiber. and i lost 50 lbs! then one day it just stopped. i hit a brick wall. i stopped logging. i started eating too much of the wrong things and not enough of the right things. i'm positive it's partly due to the fact that i'm bipolar, had been in a manic phase, and then crashed. i've been having a real hard time taking my meds the way i'm supposed to, therefore have fallen into a depression and have been emotional eating a lot. i always feel hungry. i cut up healthy things to eat for lunches at the beginning of the week, then at the end of the week they get thrown out, uneaten and spoiled.
i can't seem to get restarted. i've started talking to a behavioral therapist on the phone once a month, and my goal this month is to take my meds regularly and to start logging my food again, regardless of how bad it was that day. not worrying about calories...just getting into the habit of logging again, with the theory that seeing the overages every day will be motivation to get back on track. talked to him 2 weeks ago, and i'm still not meeting my goal for the month. i've gained back 11 lbs in the past 2 months!!! it seems i just can't stop myself from making continual bad choices.
any words of advice? did anyone out there go through the same thing and was able to overcome? how did you do it? i'm getting so angry with myself, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. HELP!
I wanted to invite you to join us in the '7 Day Motivational' thread at the top of the Women's section. You already have the goals. Maybe some comraderie and friendly motivation would be beneficial to your efforts? Feel free to just jump in, it is a great group and several members have just returned from a hiatus and falling off the wagon also.
Lisa, I agree with Ron. Please join our motivational thread. We all have challenges, maybe not all the same, but we can help each other. And as Ron says, you already have goals. Not all of us have that.
Have you anyone who can make sure you take your meds as prescribed? If you are taking them and it's not helping maybe seeing your Dr. would help. It is really hard to motivate yourself when depressed.
Try logging that you took your meds as well as the food you ate. I hope you find the support you need.
i'll check out the motivational thread. so far today i've done well...no junk food! kumochi, my husband never reminds me. my youngest daughter asks me sometimes if i took it. my new behavioral coach suggested setting an alarm twice a day on my cell phone. that has helped when it goes off when i'm at home. when it goes off and i'm not at home it still makes it hard to remember once i get home. the alarm for the morning hasn't been going off. i'll have to check the settings on it. yes, it is very hard to get motivated while depressed. thing is, i know that i feel happier when i'm eating better and healthier, so it seems like a no brainer to just do it. i read something today, though, that helped me get started...instead of looking at the big picture and how daunting it is, all i have to do is remember that "each day starts with 0 calories", so every day is an opportunity to start fresh. so far today i'm doing well. i'll just focus on one day at a time for now and then set longer goals when i'm doing better.
I like looking at the calories as money. I have a certain amount to spend so what do I want to use it on. Sometimes that helps me make the better choice. I also look at exercise as increasing the amount I have to spend.

NEWS: October 2, 2017
A BIASED 'FILIAL CORRECTION' – The end of September was marked by the widespread promotion by the media of a Filial Correction sent to Pope Francis by 62 scholars. This group of ecclesiastic theologians and laymen asked him to retract from the "propagation of heresy" made in his Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia and "other works, deeds and omissions."
The authors of the document opened a website on which we can download the 25-page original PDF document in English. The Filial Correction is composed of three parts:
The text of a letter to Pope Francis (pp. 1-9), written in a polite but strong language accusing him of propagating seven heresies. Although the text is quite bold, the heresies are written in Latin, which makes them accessible only to a small Catholic elite able to read this language.
A second part called Elucidation (pp. 10-16), in which the authors lay out presuppositions to show that Francis is basically favoring Modernism and Protestantism, two condemned heresies.
A third part of endnotes (pp. 16-25), which lists a large number of sources to back the statements of the two first parts. Interestingly, the authors quote Vatican Council II and the conciliar Popes – especially John Paul II – as if they are in full agreement with the previous Magisterium of the Church.
The general lines of the Filial Correction as well as its division into parts make it appear quite similar to the Dubia of four Cardinals sent to Pope Francis last year, which also addresses Amoris Laetitia. Thus, the similarities in form and content led me inevitably to think that both efforts sprung from the same conservative wing, that is, those men who inspired the four Cardinals or those who were inspired by them.
Francis support of Protestantism follows the example of the other conciliar Popes
A first analysis of the three parts shows that:
The letter to Pope Francis having a bold accusatory language in its text and, then, camouflaging in Latin the core of the heresies it accuses him of promoting is clearly contradictory. These two conflicting procedures give the impression of a document lacking unity of intention: Some of its authors want to make the accusation public; others are afraid of overtly exposing those errors and want them to be clear only to a few intellectuals.
The second part – Elucidation – is somewhat puzzling and misleading because the authors' approach implies that for a long time the Church has not had problems of the resurgence of Modernism and Protestantism; it is only appearing now under Francis. The consequences of this approach is that the Filial Correction:
a. exonerates from blame both Vatican II and the five other conciliar Popes who should be included in the same accusation directed against Francis;
b. implicitly presents the signers as the discoverers – like new Christopher Columbuses – of heresies, which in reality are more than 50 years old.
The third part, the endnotes quoting Vatican II documents and those of the conciliar Popes as if they enjoyed the same level of credibility as the quotations of the previous Catholic Magisterium, reinforce the same impressions caused by part two. That is, it induces the reader to believe that Vatican II and these Popes are completely uninfected by any of the "heresies, words, deeds and omissions" launched by Francis.
I am quite sure that Francis deserves the accusations made by the 62 scholars. So, in this regard, I agree with them. What I doubt is that these signers really want to stop the crisis in the Church and destroy the dominance of Progressivism over almost all the Prelates of the Church, including the last five Popes. It looks very much as if they are trying to divert attention to a scapegoat – Francis – in order to save all the victories Progressivism accomplished in the Council and in the post-conciliar period.
To make my point, let me address in a quick list what the concilar Popes have done to promote Progressivism – which was not mentioned by the 62 signers, who simplistically identify this current as Modernism – and to favor Protestantism.
Papal initiatives promoting Progressivism
John XXIII was a very good friend of the modernist Buonaiuti and had the books of this mentor hand-marked for reference.
Referring to the sanctions that the Church used to issue against heresy and heretics,: Paul VI affirmed: 'In the wake of the Council we will abolish intolerance and absolutism.'
Following those guidelines Paul VI handed over a relic of St. Athanasius to the Monophysites.
Paul VI also delivered the head of St. Mark to heretics.
Further, Paul VI became famous for his phrase: 'We are worshipers of man,' a clearly progressivist statement.
The same Paul VI praised the motto "Liberty, Equality and Fraternity" of the French Revolution as an expression of "Christian values".
Paul VI pointed to Teilhard de Chardin as a model to find God in the universe.
Let us not forget that already in the early 1960s, Paul VI had introduced standing to receive Holy Communion.
Referring to the Revolution made by Vatican II, Card. Karol Wojtyla, the future John Paul II, affirmed, "The Council ended the Constantinian era."
Card. Wojtyla also stated, "The Church must enter into the world's evolution."
Pope Wojtyla greeting native topless women
Card. Karol Wojtyla defended nudism.
John Paul II also praised the motto "Liberty, Equality and Fraternity".
Pope John Paul II performed a Liturgy with heretics at St. Peter's Basilica.
JPII gave a relic of St. Gregory to the heretic Karekin II.
As for Benedict XVI, it is indispensable to establish the presupposition that, when he was still a Cardinal, he affirmed several times he had not changed from his previous progressivist convictions.
Based on this presupposition, let us keep in mind that Fr. Ratzinger was under suspicion of heresy by the Holy Office.
Prof. Michael Schmaus, who examined Fr. Ratzinger's post-doctoral thesis, considered him a "dangerous modernist."
Card. Ratzinger affirmed, "The teachings of the Popes against Modernism are obsolete."
Ratzinger praised the plan to decentralize the Papacy.
Fr. Joseph Ratzinger defended a horizontal vs. vertical Papacy.
For Fr. Ratzinger, orthodoxy is nothing more than "a participation in the historic walk."
Fr. Ratzinger affirmed that "dogmatic formulas must always change."
Regarding the reforms of the Church proposed by Vatican II, Card. Joseph Ratzinger stated, "The Council presumes razing the bastions of the Church."
Referring to Vatican II's social document, the same Card. Ratzinger affirmed that "Gaudium et Spes is a counter-Syllabus."
Card. Ratzinger also, without criticism, asserted that Gaudium et Spes was inspired by Teilhard.
Benedict XVI praised the cosmic liturgy of Teilhard de Chardin.
Fr. Ratzinger defended the theory of the "anonymous Christian."
He also denied the dogma 'Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus.' (Outside the Church, there is no salvation)
Ratzinger approved the plan "to change the face of the Church."
Card. Ratzinger justified feminism as a consummate fact and made it acceptable as part of the modern world.
Papal initiatives favoring Protestantism:
Paul VI declared that the conciliar Church was 'betrothed' to Anglicanism.
Pope John Paul II kissed the hand of a heretic.
JPII preached at the Anglican cathedral of Canterbury.
Card. Ratzinger, future Benedict XVI, contributed to the Augsburg Accord to make it acceptable to the Lutherans, thus compromising the doctrine of justification.
Card. Ratzinger gave Holy Communion to a Protestant.
Benedict XVI stated that the Protestant brother Schultz was in Heaven.
Benedict XVI consistently gave Protestants support and prestige.
Benedict XVI visited and spoke at the Lutheran temple in Rome.
In Erkfurt, Benedict XVI presented Luther as a model for Christians.
Benedict XVI met with the Lutheran council in Erfurt.
After checking this only partial list of "works and deeds" of the conciliar Popes who preceded Pope Francis, it becomes very difficult to comprehend why the intellectuals who sent Francis their accusation that he was a propagator of heresies did not also include the previous Pontiffs in their denunciation.
The only explanation I can think of is that they are trying to create a scapegoat in order to save the other Popes and the Council.
Paul VI Introduced Standing Holy Communion
Paul VI: We Are Worshipers of Man
JPII Praises Liberty, Equality and Fraternity
John Paul II Kissed the Hand of a Heretic
In Erkfurt Benedict XVI Presented Luther as a Model for Christians

5. Explore globally relevant and societally impactful grand challenge collaborative projects.
By : Global Biofoundries Alliance November 18, 2019 December 12, 2019
Nathan Hillson, Mark Caddick, […]Paul S. Freemont
Nature Communications volume 10, Article number: 2040 (2019)
Biofoundries provide an integrated infrastructure to enable the rapid design, construction, and testing of genetically reprogrammed organisms for biotechnology applications and research. Many biofoundries are being built and a Global Biofoundry Alliance has recently been established to coordinate activities worldwide.
Over the past 5 years, research institutions around the world have been establishing biofoundries to expand their biotechnology development capacities. However, the existence of these biofoundries is not yet widely known within the biotechnology or broader biological research communities. Biofoundries aim to accelerate and enhance both academic and translational research in engineering/synthetic biology by promoting and enabling the beneficial use of automation and high-throughput equipment including process scale-up, computer-aided design software, and other new workflows and tools. Iterative Design-Build-Test-Learn biological engineering cycles (Fig. 1) allow researchers to test large-scale genetic designs and apply artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning to enhance the design process. Other goals include building a robust engineering/synthetic biology industry as well as accelerating the commercialization of engineering/synthetic biology and biomanufacturing process engineering. One aspirational goal is to establish biodesign rules that can be applied for the efficient reprogramming of living cells for biotechnology and biomedical applications. Such reprogramming will also allow fundamental insights into the complexity of living systems. In terms of throughput, current exemplars include the Edinburgh Genome Foundry1, which for example can process over 2000 DNA assembly reactions per week, 20-times the throughput of a single person without automation. At the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, iBioFAB2 can build up to 1000 TALEN constructs per day at <$3 each, 0.3% of what it might otherwise cost. Moreover, iBioFAB can perform multiplex genome-scale engineering of Saccharomyces ceresvisiae in a fully automated manner3, >10-times the throughput of a single person without automation. Working with small companies, the London DNA Foundry4, Singapore SynCTI Foundry5 and US DOE Agile BioFoundry6 now provide cost-effective access to expensive equipment and the necessary expertize for product prototyping and commercial process validation, which are often required to secure additional capital investment.
The Design-Build-Test-Learn (DBTL) biological engineering cycle. In simple terms the DBTL framework aims to fulfill particular design criteria for a synthetic biology application, which might for example be the production of a specific product at an optimal titer or the detection of a specific clinical biomarker using an engineered gut microbiome. The cycle begins with D (Design), which defines the desired target function/specifications and involves the computational design of genetic parts, circuits, regulatory and metabolic pathways to whole genomes; B (Build) involves the physical assembly of those designed genetic components; T (Test) involves the prototyping and testing of the assembled genetic designs in living cells (also called "chasses") at different scales, which also includes comprehensive analytical measurements (''omics'') of specific cellular components. This can also include testing components in cell-free extract systems; L (Learn) is the application of modeling and computational learning tools, which uses the data obtained in T to inform the design process. Iterations of the DBTL cycle results in genetic designs that aim to fulfill the design specifications established in D. In the figure the DBTL cycle is depicted around an imagined biofactory or biorefinery where many products will be produced using more sustainable and circular economic processes forming the future infrastructure for a global bioeconomy.

To enable global coordination of these efforts, 15 non-commercial biofoundries from four continents gathered in London in June 2018 to discuss the formation of a Global Biofoundry Alliance (GBA) that would enable the collective to share experiences and resources and work together to overcome shared challenges and unmet scientific and engineering needs. Several operational challenges reverberated through the June meeting. Participants frequently expressed concerns over sustainable biofoundry growth and development, commenting on the high costs of retaining staff, maintaining infrastructure, and replacing equipment at a predictable rate. Small user bases and a limited awareness of biofoundry capabilities among potential users currently limit the revenue streams that could eventually offset these expenditures. High experimental costs are also a significant barrier for the academic community and indicate that an extended period of public investment will be necessary to enable the benefits of biofoundries to impact the broader research community. Standards were also a key challenge with scant software, hardware, and methodological standardization in place to promote interoperability, efficiency and safety. Legal issues associated with sharing intellectual property, physical samples, and other resources across national and institutional boundaries have also proven difficult. Using BioFoundries effectively requires a paradigm shift in how we do biological engineering, and training the next generation to effectively exploit these technologies is also extremely important. Notwithstanding these challenges, it was agreed that biofoundry capabilities are a critical enabling technology for individual countries to develop capability and deliver on the significant promise of synthetic/engineering biology.
The GBA will be formally launched on 9th May, 2019 in Kobe, Japan, during a meeting of the Founding Members (Fig. 2). The GBA has agreed to a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding, which does not establish any legal rights or obligations, but is a voluntary arrangement dependent upon goodwill and cooperation. Signing parties are research institutions, research funding agencies, or other entities that operate non-commercial biofoundries, as well as other organizations that actively support public-funded biofoundries. The parties have non-overlapping missions with for-profit entities.
The objectives of the GBA are to
Develop, promote, and support non-commercial biofoundries established around the world,
Intensify collaboration and communication among biofoundries,
Collectively develop responses to technological, operational, and other types of common challenges,
Enhance visibility, impact and sustainability of non-commercial biofoundries, and
Explore globally relevant and societally impactful grand challenge collaborative projects.

To achieve these objectives, the GBA will provide coordination between Alliance members and promote collective action and sharing of pre-competitive infrastructure, open standards, protocols, best practices, bio-parts, and data where possible. This will also involve exploring standardized legal tools to reduce the transaction costs of sharing including the OpenMTA7. The GBA will also allow increased visibility about the role and importance of biofoundries by reporting on success stories and positive impacts. Other activities will involve the exchange of sustainable business models, as well as approaches to lowering transaction and operational costs and expanding user bases; and personnel exchanges, including developing teaching and training programs for researchers and users of biofoundry facilities. The GBA will actively and transparently engage a broad range of stakeholders including policy makers, industry, public funding and government agencies, as well as civil society to continually improve GBA activities and practices.
To strengthen the coordination and collaboration within the GBA, the Alliance will also explore opportunities to tackle a globally relevant, societally impactful grand challenge (e.g., directly addressing one of the UN sustainable development goals) with each biofoundry bringing its unique strengths and capabilities to the problem. GBA members will also explore bilateral collaborations on smaller-scale projects (e.g., biofoundry performance testing and benchmarking). The benefits of the GBA are anticipated to be analogous to those experienced by the synthetic yeast genome Sc2.08 project, in which internationally distributed participant teams share a common scientific and engineering biodesign goals.

Understanding Your Accommodation Options in The U.S.
"Where am I going to stay?" is a question that worries every immigrant before moving.
Before you go for a high-end property, consider your current income, family, and the area you wish to move to.
The currency exchange rate and cost of living in the U.S. will hit you like a ton of bricks soon enough as you look for housing. If it's a rental, restrict yourself to spending no more than 30% of your income on it.
Sure, the allure of the idyllic American lifestyle is irresistible, but you will need to take off the rose-tinted glasses. It will help you make financially sound choices.
It will take you several years to get a green card. While you're in the U.S. as a lawfully present non-immigrant, you still have many accommodation options. You will need to furnish your social security number (SSN) for renting/buying a place to live.

Why Purchase from Insubuy?
What Kind of Houses are Available?
Consider the space and your family size while searching for property. A helpful tip: The U.S. real estate market uses square feet for listing property size.
Smaller apartments and condominiums (condos) tend to be more common in big cities. If it's a posh area like Manhattan, the price will undoubtedly be sky-high for a tiny space.
Both condos and apartments climb vertically and have more than one family on the same level. The difference lies in the ownership and shared space between the two.
Condos tend to lean towards sole ownership, bought as real estate, while apartments tend to be rented. Both usually share common spaces in the same building (pools, gyms, and play areas).
If you seek temporary accommodations, go for corporate housing. It's a good option for those who don't want to sign a lease. They come fully furnished and are great for living short-term.
You can also look for duplexes or townhouses, which are suitable for smaller families. The only edge over condos is they don't come with vertical neighbors.
We recommend buying land only after you arrive in the country. It's wise to do a physical inspection of the property and the neighborhood before buying.
You can purchase land through foreign investments, as long as the money comes from legitimate sources.
Rent an Accommodation
Renting accommodation is the best option during the early days of your stay in the U.S. For students, renting is the second-best option after university hostels and dormitories.
Rent Price
The average rent price in the United States is $1,249 per month. The most affordable state for rental accommodations is West Virginia, where the average monthly rent is $800. California, with an average rent of $1,901, is the most expensive in the U.S.
Signing the Lease Agreement
While renting, there are some precautions that you should take before you sign the lease agreement.
Check the basics in your lease agreement like the owner's name, property address, and rent payment process as you would elsewhere. The contract should also have details of all that is being rented, such as equipment like a washing machine, refrigerator, and oven in the unit.
Check what bills you will have to pay as the tenant. In some cases, the owner pays the water bill. The agreement should clearly say that the owner is responsible for maintenance.
However, despite all the precautions, it is mostly "take it or leave it" with homeowners, and the tenant has little choice in the conditions for tenancy.

Jaiprakash Associates Ltd has agreed to sell its 74% stake in Bokaro Jaypee Cement to Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd for Rs 6.9 billion, as the group seeks to cut its growing debts.
Indian power and infrastructures companies are suffering under the strain of large debts, a struggle to get projects approved and a slowdown in the Indian economy in recent months.
Jaiprakash and its subsidiaries have total debts of Rs 620 billion, up from between 550 billion and 560 billion in September, executive chairman Manoj Gaur told CNBC TV 18. The company plans to cut its debts by 250 billion rupees by the end of March 2015 through more asset sales, he added.
"The intention is to give less and less pain to the bankers and remain creditworthy in the eyes of the bankers," Gaur told the TV channel.
The Bokaro Jaypee Cement deal is subject to the approval of Steel Authority of India Ltd, its joint venture partner, Jaiprakash said on Monday after a board meeting.
Jaiprakash and its subsidiaries have already made a number of disposals in recent months.
Jaiprakash Power Ventures agreed to sell two power plants earlier in March to an Abu Dhabi-led consortium for $1.6 billion.
The company sold its cement plant in Gujarat state to UltraTech Cement last year.
Jaiprakash, founded by Jaiprakash Gaur, is known in India as the builder behind the country's only Formula One track.


I am a bit confused by the pattern so I'm hoping someone can clarify the instructions for me!
It says "rice stitch" with row 1 as k1 p1, row 2 as k1 p1 (ie all rows are the same). However when I google 'rice stitch' everything says row 1 is k1 p1, and row 2 is knit all? Which is right?
The instructions also say to never knit the first stitch of the row to get a nice finish. I thought you were supposed to always knit the first stitch of the row? If I don't knit it, do I purl instead?
Edited by eigne, 10 April 2019 - 09:27 PM.
Slip the first stitch of each row. That will give it a nice finish.
As for the pattern do you have a link or photo of what it is supposed to look like finished? That will help us determine which 'rice stitch' is correct. Generally you work off what your pattern tells you to. But sometimes they get things wrong.
Ah ok, thanks, I will slip the first stitch from now on!
Ok, great, thanks very much for your help. I shall begin!
Often patterned stitches are called different names in different countries.
The stitch in your link I have always known as moss stitch here in Australia.
I call that seed stitch. K1, P1 for 1st row then on the 2nd row you purl the knit stitches and knit the purl stitches so it is the opposite of a rib stitch. I have never heard of rice stitch but the stitch you described in your OP I know as a broken rib stitch.
I think you are talking about seed stitch (seed stitch is single little "seed" stitches. Moss stitch is normally done in larger groupings then a single stitch). Basically it's k1/p1 on row 1, then the next row you knit the purl stitches and purl the knit stitches. Slip the first stitch of each row for a nice edge. Make sure you slip it purlwise though as it will sit nicer.
Hmmm so far it's not looking like I expected. On every row I'm doing slip 1, then k1 p1 to end. It looks more like rib stitch.
That's because it is rib stitch - that slipped stitch is throwing off your pattern. You could try casting on an extra two stitches, slip the first one of each row, and knit the last one. Makes a neat edge and is easy to remember.
That's because you are doing rob stitches. On the WS is you are slipping a stitch you need to start the row with a k1. The edge stitch doesn't count for the pattern.
R1: s1, *k1, p1 repeat * to end.
Row 2 is basically exactly the same. It just depends if your 2nd last stitch is a knit or purl stitch. If it's a purl stitch start the next row on a purl after the edge stitch, if it's a knit stitch, start the next row on a knit stitch after the edge stitch.
Edited by mayahlb, 11 April 2019 - 08:44 AM.
Success! It is now looking like it should, except I've got a neat bobbly edge instead of the nice looped slip stitch edge I was expecting but c'est la vie! It will get sewn together at the end anyway.


Media stories of shootings, drug trafficking, and family alliances within the Indo-Canadian community have become shockingly familiar. But what happens behind the headlines? How and why do youth become involved in gangs? How do issues of identity and tension between generations – problems shared by all segments of Canadian society – figure into the equation?
Headlines Theatre is working with members of the Indo-Canadian community to ask these and other difficult questions, and invite the public to offer creative answers at Forum Theatre events called: Here and Now.
Headlines Theatre Approaching the organisation's 25th anniversary in January, 2006, Headlines Theatre has produced hundreds of Theatre for Living workshops and performances around the world. Artistic Director David Diamond has adapted Brazilian director Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed to a contemporary context. Diamond's approach shares a starting point with Boal, using the powerful language of Image Theatre – metaphor, symbolism, archetypes, (cut play) – as a means for communities to investigate difficult issues. However, embracing concepts of systems theory, Diamond has left behind the binary model of Oppressor and Oppressed to create plays and stimulate community dialogue woven with the complexity and ironies of real life.
Grassroots participation. The process began with an intensive six-day workshop with 22 community members who have a direct connection to the issue. Theatre techniques were used to uncover the deep-seated desires, fears and motivations at play, and better understand the intricate dynamics contributing to the problem. An authentic voice. The material gathered in the workshop is now being used as a springboard for development of a play, created and performed by a cast of seven workshop participants. Public dialogue. At performances, the audience will be invited to stop the action of the play, replace characters onstage, and test their ideas for resolving conflicts. The interactive events provide an engaging forum, yielding surprising insights.
By adapting the methodologies of last year's award-winning Legislative Theatre project, Practicing Democracy, the production will generate a Community Action Report that contains concrete suggestions for social service agencies and anti-violence programs that the community itself believes would be effective. The report will be compiled by Kashmir Besla, a Lower Mainland family counselor who works with families and women in violent relationships, and in child protection. Upon completion, the report will be made available to the public via Headlines' web site.
Balinder Johal Born, raised and educated in India, Balinder came to Canada in 1965 and taught in the BC school system and at the Vancouver community college for 24 years. She has worked in theatre, educational videos, TV and film in English, Punjabi and Hindi. Her Chachi ji episodes on community-related issues have been an attempt to bridge the cultural, educational, gender and generational gaps.
worked as a Community Support Worker with the Downtown Eastside Residents Association (DERA) and is set to start working as a Support Facilitator with the Surrey Urban Youth Project. He is expecting to complete a BA in Sociology at Simon Fraser University by December and spends his spare time studying political-economy and engaged in anti-war and anti-racism campaigns.
Natasha Ali Wilson Twenty-two year old Natasha is a professional performer. She has guest starred in many projects including Huff, an HBO Drama with Oliver Platt and Hank Azaria and played a lead role in Return to Cabin by the Lake a feature film with Judd Nelson. She has also been writing and recording vocals with local artists.
Raminder Thind Born and raised in the District of Patiala, Punjab, India, Raminder is a triple post graduate in Theatre, Journalism, and Public Relations & Advertising from Punjabi University Patiala. In India, he is a well-known as a theatre professional who has strived throughout his life to highlight community problems through theatre.
He has been involved in social justice work from a young age. Since coming to Canada a year ago he has seen that these issues exist in his local community and in his family. The issues being connected to his life and his desire for change lead him to Headlines Theatre, and Here and Now.
Seth Ranaweera is intrigued by the exploration of violence in the community because of his own early experiences with violence. He hopes that this project is able to bring about a significant and positive dialogue between 1st generation immigrant parents and their 2nd generation children. We must, he says, find a way to break the cycles.
Shawn Cheema is a 19 year-old who has experienced the drug trade firsthand.
"I thought I could take the easy way to making money, but it turned out I was on the wrong path. I lost over $1,500 out of my pocket. I just want to send a message to all the people in my generation, that this is not the right way. I was promised over $1,000 a week, but was faced, instead, with death within 48 hours if I didn't come up with the money. I also had trouble with my family because they are from India and I am from Canada. There was a really big communication problem. I didn't know how to talk to them or be open with them. I just hope that I can share my experiences with everyone else and make a difference in my community.

Q: Removing multiple items from ConcurrentDictionary based on conditional key Let's say that I have a ConcurrentDictionary:
var dict = new ConcurrentDictionary<string, someObject>();
dict.TryAdd("0_someA_someB_someC", obj0);
dict.TryAdd("1_someA_someB_someC", obj1);
dict.TryAdd("2_someA_someB_someC", obj2);
dict.TryAdd("3_someA_someB_someC", obj3);

The <number>_ in the keys is incremented and being a dictionary, there is no guarantee that the elements are in order.
Now, imagine I wanted to remove all items from the dictionary that have the number less than 2. I have no idea what the keys will look like, only that they will be prefixed with a number as above.
How can I remove all elements from the dictionary who's key starts with a value less than 2?
For example, the resulting dict after this process will look like this:
dict.TryAdd("2_someA_someB_someC", obj2);
dict.TryAdd("3_someA_someB_someC", obj3);

A: Presuming it has always this format, you can use LINQ:
var keysToRemove = dict.Keys.Where(key => int.Parse(key.Remove(key.IndexOf('_'))) < 2).ToList();
keysToRemove.ForEach(key => dict.TryRemove(key, out someObject obj));

String.Remove removes the part starting from _ and then parses the remaiming first part, the number. It will only select the keys which number is lower than 2.
This list will be used to remove the items from the dictionary. Of course you need a lock to make this thread-safe.

A: *

*Parse the number that comes before the first underscore (Tip: IndexOf and Substring)

*Convert it to integer (Tip: int.TryParse)

*Compare number to the value (2 in this case)

*Filter the keys applying this method, store them in a collection. Iterate over the collection and call TryRemove method to remove entries associated with the key.

A: You would need to iterate across the dictionary collecting the keys that match the criteria and then iterate across that list of keys deleting from the dictionary. A for-each across a dictionary returns items with Key and Value properties, so you can examine the Key property to decide whether or not to delete. You cannot delete in the same loop as this will result in an error.

A: You could use Split to split the key into an array on the _ character, convert the first item in the resulting array into an int (note this will throw if the key doesn't start with an int), and if it's less than 2, remove it from the dictionary:
foreach (var item in dict.Where(kvp => int.Parse(kvp.Key.Split('_')[0]) < 2))
{
    SomeObject tempObject;
    dict.TryRemove(item.Key, out tempObject);
}

The results are a modernized version of the group's signature sound, "garage punk and new wave girl groups as refracted through a 21st century looking glass." SPIN called it "ingeniously slicked-up garage pop."

SIDE NOTE: This looks pretty damn epic and that's all I have to say.
SIDE NOTE: Only Kanye West can release a video for a song from an album that is two years old (My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy) and precedes his latest work (Watch the Throne with Jay-Z) and it still be as compelling, popular and significant as it would have been if it was released years prior. Kudos to you, Kanye. Kudos.


The land on which Keston Park stands has formed part of the Holwood Estate for over 250 years. However it is a site of even greater historic significance; Iron Age encampments have been uncovered in Holwood Park including the remains of an extensive fort known as Caesar's Camp, while Roman tombs and a mausolea lie in the valley below Keston village.
Constructed in the 1750s, the original Holwood House was sold in 1785 to one of its most famous owners: William Pitt, Prime Minister of Great Britain. During this time the house was described by historian Thomas Wilson as commanding, "One of the most fertile variegated, and extensive inland prospects in the whole county".
It was on top of the vale of Keston near to an oak tree that William Pitt and his friend, politician William Wilberforce, discussed the abolition of slavery. In commemoration of this consequential moment a new oak tree has been planted over the remains of the original "Wilberforce oak" along with a stone bench to admire the views.
John Ward, a wealthy London merchant, took over the ownership of the house in 1823 and had it rebuilt in the Greek revival style by architect Decimus Bruton resulting in the Grade I listed building it is today. The estate comprised the grand Holwood House, Holwood Lodge and various cottages and farm buildings extending over 500 acres.
Sold in 1852, the estate underwent a succession of owners including the Lord Chancellor Cranworth and, after his death in 1858, the Earl of Derby. On 9th January 1923 the Earl sold 143 acres of land known as the Keston Lodge Estate for £6000 to the property developer Frederick Rogers who renamed it 'Keston Park'.
Frederick Rogers had a unique vision for the estate influenced by the extensive travels he had undertaken throughout his life. He wanted to imbue it with the space and openness of American housing developments while retaining the grandeur of a British estate.
Determined to safeguard the site's natural beauty, Rogers oversaw the development closely and created restrictive covenants for purchasers wanting to buy land. Each plot was to be at least half an acre and the site of a single dwelling. He took the unusual step of excluding the verges from the sale of plots to preserve the open aspect of the Park. He insisted on personally approving all elevations and requests to move trees.
Due to Keston's Park's relative isolation and lack of transport at the time, Rogers built a small parade of Tudor style shops known as Locksbottom Village for residents to use and created a Clubhouse for socialising called 'The Fantail Cafe' - now known as Chapter One.
Eric Rogers succeeded his father and managed Keston Park until his death in 1974 after which the residents of Keston Park were given the rare opportunity of taking over its management.
Keston Park (1975) Limited was incorporated in 1979 and assumed legal ownership of the Park's roads, footpaths, verges, gates and lighting from the Rogers family. The Board of Keston Park (1975) Limited was created and has for the past 40 years worked tirelessly to maintain Frederick Roger's original creation and the Park's enviable reputation as one of the UK's most prestigious and secure private residential estates.
Keston Park has had many high profile residents since including Margaret Thatcher, who lived on the estate with her family prior to becoming prime minister, and Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones and Peter Wood, founder of Direct Line Insurance.
